Local researchers take on real world

The New Mexican

School leaders and teachers union representatives across New Mexico are accusing the Martinez administration of changing course on whether a school district has the

final say in firing a teacher given one of the lowest ratings under the state’s new evaluation system.

Two years ago, when the state Public Education Department implemented its teacher-evaluation plan by department rule — because

the Legislature did not approve it — agency officials said the state would not fire low-rated teachers, but instead would offer them professional development.

Last month, however, the department told districts that Level I teachers found to be “ineffective” would have their contracts terminated and would have to wait three years to reapply for their licenses. Asked to

Auditor creates division to assess costs, returns

Santa Fe had a date with The Bachelor, but he didn’t spend the night.

Chris Soules, the Iowa-based star of the reality TV dating show The Bachelor, was seen peeking into shops on the Santa Fe Plaza in October, when the production was filming an episode in the city, but he didn’t rest his head at any of the hotels in town afterward.

Randy Randall, executive director of the Santa Fe conChris vention and visitors Soules bureau, said Thursday that Soules and the women vying for his affection, as well as dozens of workers producing the show for the ABC network, stayed at the Buffalo Thunder Resort & Casino in Pojoaque the entire time the episode was being filmed.

“The timing of the filming of this particular episode, it was the only hotel that responded to their request,” Randall said of Buffalo Thunder. “It was offered to every hotel in Santa Fe.” He said the Pojoaque resort plans

BUZZ BAINBRIDGE, 1921-2015

Businessman was ski pioneer

By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

A.G. “Buzz” Bainbridge, a businessman and former state tourism official who played a large role in New Mexico’s ski industry, died Sunday at 93.

Bainbridge died in his sleep at his Santa Fe home due to complications of old age, said his son, Steve Bainbridge.

The elder Bainbridge had worked for various ski areas and helped to create and manage several resorts in the Southwest. His son said his father had a sharp marketing mind and possessed unending energy.

Buzz Bainbridge was born June 2, 1921, in Minneapolis and attended the University of Minnesota, where he met his wife, Jean. They married in 1943 before he served in the Navy during World War II. He became an officer and served on sub chasers and on landing craft for both infantry and tanks.

The couple moved to New Mexico in the winter of 1946-47, his son

For years as a state senator from Albuquerque, Tim Keller worked to pass bills requiring the state government to look at how much state tax incentives cost and how much revenue they actually generate for New Mexico.

Though his bills had wide bipartisan support in the Legislature, they ran into serious resistance from governors Tim Keller from both parties.

But now that he’s state auditor, Keller is looking at the issue again. In announcing Thursday the creation of a Government Accountability Office in the State Auditor’s Office, Keller said part of the responsibilities of the new division will be to “proactively assess the return on investment for our state’s many tax-incentive programs.”

This is “the cornerstone of why I ran for auditor,” he said in an interview Thursday.

said. Buzz Bainbridge was working as a sales representative for a ski company when his wife fell in love with Santa Fe. Robert Nordhaus, founder of the Santa Fe ski area,

later asked Bainbridge to operate ski areas at Hyde Memorial State Park and at the Big Tesuque site.

To solve the problem, Holder said, local police and state agencies should be required to report all shooting incidents to the FBI.

In brief SAN FRANCISCO — Google will stop selling its Internet-connected eyewear to consumers until the company can develop a more polished and affordable version that’s less likely to be viewed as a freakish device. The sales moratorium on the nearly 2-year-old “Explorer” edition of Google Glass goes into effect Monday. The decision announced Thursday coincides with Glass’ spinoff from the secretive Google X lab where it was invented.

Tech firms to pay $415M to settle class-action lawsuit

The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — Apple, Google and two other Silicon Valley companies have agreed to pay $415 million in a second attempt to resolve a class-action lawsuit alleging they formed an illegal cartel to prevent their workers from leaving for better-paying jobs.

The settlement filed Thursday in a San Jose, Calif., federal court revises a $324.5 million agreement that U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh rejected as inadequate five months ago. Koh indicated that she believed the roughly 64,000 workers in the case should be paid at least $380 million, including attorney fees.

The lawsuit, filed in 2011, sought $3 billion in damages that could have been tripled under U.S. antitrust law.

Attorneys for the workers decided to settle after concluding it would have been difficult to prove the alleged conspiracy to a jury.

Target closes 133 stores, lays off 17,000 people in Canada

Nationwide trend shows demand for dinner at school

MINNEAPOLIS — Target is giving up on its moneylosing foray into Canada after just two years, closing 133 stores and cutting loose more than 17,000 employees.

Target said it didn’t see how it could stop losing money before at least 2021 on its first international expansion.

The closing links Target with a series of other retailers that have learned the hard way that the northern border is tough to cross.

What went wrong? There are costly regulations. In addition, most Canadians live near the U.S. border, compare prices religiously and are willing to shop in the U.S. to save money.

Judge: 3 million barrels discharged after 2010 BP spill NEW ORLEANS — U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier ruled that 3.19 million barrels — just under 134 million gallons — were discharged into the Gulf after a rig explosion at BP’s Macondo well following a rig explosion in 2010.

The number is more than the 2.4 million barrel figure BP had argued for and less than the government’s estimate of about 4.2 million, a figure that could have meant $18 billion in maximum penalties under the Clean Water Act. Those penalties are to be determined in a trial set to open Tuesday.

Obama tries again to get paid leave for more workers BALTIMORE — President Barack Obama launched a fresh push Thursday to bring paid sick and family leave to working parents and other private-sector employees as the White House unveiled proposals that could benefit tens of millions of people. Most require action by the Republican-controlled Congress.

The White House said Obama will push the issue anew in the State of the Union address he delivers Tuesday night to a joint session of Congress.

Obama wants Congress, states and cities to pass measures to let workers earn up to a week of paid sick time a year. He’ll also ask for more than $2 billion to encourage states to create paid family and medical leave programs.

LOS ANGELES any of the students at Kingsley Elementary School in a low-income neighborhood of Los Angeles eat breakfast and lunch provided by the school. For the nearly 100 enrolled in the after-school program, another meal is served: supper.

The nation’s second largest school district is doubling the number of students served dinner, with an eye toward eventually offering it at every school. It’s a growing trend: Nationwide, the number of students served dinner or an after-school snack soared to nearly 1 million last year.

“When kids are hungry, they don’t pay attention,” said Bennett Kayser, a member of the Los Angeles Unified School District board, which was announcing the expansion Thursday. “This is something that should have started years ago.”

Thirteen states and the District of Columbia began offering students dinner as part of a pilot program expanded to all states after the 2010 passage of the Healthy, HungerFree Kids Act. Schools where at least half the students are low-income and qualify for free or reduced-price lunch are reimbursed for each supper by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, at a rate often significantly higher than the cost of the meal.

In the 2014 fiscal year, 104 million suppers were served to students, up from about 19 million in 2009. Participation is still lower than in the nation’s long-running breakfast and lunch programs, which serve more than 12 million and 31 million students, respectively.

The introduction of dinner to school routines is unique in that it could take the place of what many consider a near-sacred ritual: The family dinner.

Proponents say that since many students stay on campus until the early evening

hours, it makes sense to provide an additional meal. In the case of the neediest students, they might not get anything to eat after class other than what is offered at school.

Research on family dinners has shown a plethora of benefits: Greater academic achievement, less delinquency and better family relations.

Yet the research also presents a chickenand-egg type question: Do children reap those benefits because they have dinner with their families, or do the same families that have dinner together display other traits that account for higher achievement?

More recent research indicates while family dinners can be linked to fewer symptoms of depression, most of the other benefits seem to decrease when demographic and other environmental factors are taken into account. At a time when many families have hectic schedules, dinner at school could provide some relief, said Rachel Dunifon, a policy professor at Cornell University.

“If these meals help alleviate stress, it could actually be good and open up more time for families,” she said.

LAUSD currently serves supper to 75,000 students and plans to expand the program to about 150,000 over the next two years. School officials estimate it will generate $16.6 million in revenue, which will go toward expanding the program.

Other large, urban districts with dinner programs include Philadelphia and District of Columbia public schools. Wayne Grasela, senior vice president for food services, said the School District of Philadelphia now serves 4,500 dinners each day.

At Kinsley Elementary School, several students said the roasted sunflower seeds, cheese sticks and, depending on the day, sandwiches, salads and chicken they are served function more like a snack than a meal. Some eat another meal at home.

But for others, it’s one of the few things they eat after class. Ten-year-old Evelyn Ruballos said she usually only eats crackers when she gets home.

“And then I just go to sleep,” she said.

JOHANNESBURG — As Islamic militants from Boko Haram step up attacks in Nigeria that have led to the slaughter of more civilians, there is increasing talk that international military action, possibly including a multinational force, may be needed to help crush the insurgency in Africa’s most populous country.

The debate has taken on new urgency since Jan. 3, when Boko Haram extremists swept into the northeastern town of Baga in Borno state, overran a military base and, according to witnesses, killed hundreds of civilians in the days that followed. It was one of the most brazen assaults since militants kidnapped nearly 300 girls last year, setting off an international outcry.

Amnesty International has released satellite images showing widespread destruction — with about 3,700 structures damaged or destroyed — but the horrifying picture of the attack is incomplete because aid workers, journalists and others cannot reach the Boko Haram-controlled area. Extremists, who encountered resistance from civilian militias in Baga, systematically slaughtered civilians in what analysts believe was retaliation for their defiance.

Boko Haram’s message, according to analyst Matthew Henman, was: “If you organize these militias against us, this is the response that you will receive.”

Nigeria’s neighbors are already being shaken by Boko Haram’s territorial expansion. Niger, Chad and Cameroon have seen flows of refugees into their countries.

Boko Haram is believed to funnel fighters and equipment across borders; previously, a multinational garrison in Baga was tasked with thwarting frontier smuggling and, increasingly, the activities of Islamic insurgents.

On Thursday, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said he and British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond discussed a special initiative to deal with Boko Haram, but he did not elaborate.

The deployment of a multinational force to fight Boko Haram does not appear imminent and would take considerable political will, in addition to needing a green light from a Nigerian government that has appeared leery at times of perceived foreign meddling. However, a United Nations official said Wednesday there will be a meeting Tuesday in Niger’s capital, Niamey, to explore the idea of a regional force to confront Nigeria’s militants.

CINCINNATI — Christopher Lee Cornell showed little direction in his life, spending hours playing video games in his bedroom in his parents’ apartment, rarely going out or working, and voicing distrust of the government and the media. But in recent weeks, his parents say, they noticed a change in him.

They thought it was a change for the better: The 20-year-old suburban Cincinnati man was helping his mother around the house and talking about having become a Muslim.

“He said, ‘I’m at peace with myself,’ ” his father, John Cornell, recalled Thursday — a day after his son was arrested in an FBI sting and charged with plotting to attack the U.S. Capitol with pipe bombs and guns and kill government officials.

The FBI said he had for months sent social media messages and posted video espousing support for Islamic State militants and for violent attacks by others.

Cornell, using the online name of Raheel Mahrus Ubaydah, told a FBI informant they should “wage jihad,” authorities said in court papers. Cornell was jailed for a federal court appearance Friday in Cincinnati.

Officers facing murder charges want DA off case

By Russell Contreras The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — Two Albuquerque officers facing murder charges for the shooting death of a homeless man want the district attorney who charged them disqualified.

Lawyers for Albuquerque SWAT team member Dominique Perez and former detective Keith Sandy filed a joint motion Thursday to remove Bernalillo County District Attorney Kari Brandenburg from the case due to a conflict of interest.

The lawyers say both men have helped the District Attorney’s Office in the past on other cases. The lawyers also say that bribery allegations made

by Albuquerque police against Brandenburg tainted her efforts to proceed

without the appearance of bias.

“The politically charged nature of this case creates the impression of bias or impartiality that is imputed to the District Attorney’s entire office in light of the potential charges against District Attorney Brandenburg,” the motion read. “Recusal is appropriate, especially in light of the District Attorney’s personal conflict of interest with the Albuquerque Police Department.”

A spokeswoman for Brandenburg says her office is reviewing the motion.

Brandenburg announced this week she was seeking charges in the March shooting death of 38-year-old James Boyd.

Boyd, who authorities later said suffered from schizophrenia, was shot during a standoff in March in the foothills of the Sandia Mountains. Video of

the shooting showed Boyd appearing to surrender before Perez and Sandy opened fire.

Attorneys for the officers say their clients did nothing wrong.

Brandenburg’s move to seek charges marked a major shift from her previous decisions not go after Albuquerque officers linked to more than 40 police shootings since 2010. It also pointed to growing tensions between her office and the troubled Albuquerque Police Department, which suspects Brandenburg of reimbursing burglary victims to protect her son.

The district attorney said she had been working on the Boyd case before she heard of those allegations and her decision to seek charges was based on the facts.

She has denied any wrongdoing.

Teachers: Educators seek policy clarification

Resort: No hotels in city limits responded

Superintendents Association, said he and other school officials met with the Public Education Department on Thursday to discuss their concerns about the policy shift. “I don’t know how far they are willing to bend. I do think they are listening,” he said. “I think there will be some movement in a positive direction.”

Parks said he is expecting a clarifying email from the department soon.

On Dec. 22 — during winter break for schools — Leighann Lenti, deputy secretary for policy and programs for the Public Education Department, notified district superintendents, principals and charter schools of some policy changes.

For example, she said, the license of a Level 2 teacher rated ineffective would not be renewed unless the district or school principal requested an extension of the teacher’s contract, the teacher accumulated at least 50 percent of possible points in the evaluation and the teacher completed a professional development dossier, at a cost of $320.

Betty Patterson, president of the National Education Association-New Mexico, said in an email that the new guidelines “flaunt the laws of New Mexico, further concentrating state power at the expense of citizens and locally elected officials of our local school boards. … A local superintendent and school board should have the authority to rehire educators they know to be competent.”

Parks also said he believes these decisions should be left in the control of local superintendents. “We think that’s where it needs to stop and start,” he said.

Rep. Dennis Roch, R-Logan, superintendent of that city’s school district, said by phone Thursday that he has told the Public Education Department that the decision on whether to renew a teacher’s contract should remain with the district.

“Districts need to retain that authority… to see if we can improve performance identified in an evaluation as weaker,” he said.

The teacher evaluation plan, one of Gov. Susana Martinez’s education reforms, relies heavily on student test scores and classroom observations to determine whether teachers are “ineffective,” “minimally effective,” “effective,” “highly effective” or “exemplary.”

a “community watch party” Feb. 2, the date the episode filmed in and around Santa Fe is scheduled to air.

“It’s going to be open to the public,” he said of the Buffalo Thunder event.

Randall said the resort was “the venue for their lodging for the whole production component. Buffalo Thunder was a partner along with the city and the state.”

The city of Santa Fe contributed $50,000 in city lodgers tax funds as part of the effort to bring the show to the area. The money, which came from a fund restricted to spending on marketing and promotion, was intended for use in offsetting unspecified production and travel costs, as well as other expenses. The state Tourism Department also contributed $50,000.

A divided City Council approved Randall’s request to spend the money, generating mixed reactions from taxpayers. Some said the city’s exposure to millions of TV viewers was worth the investment, while others argued that Santa Fe shouldn’t associate its name with such a show.

City Councilor Bill Dimas, who voted against the spending and previously called the show “terrible” and “awful,” said Thursday the city didn’t seem to be getting a return on its investment.

“If they’re staying at Buffalo Thunder, that’s certainly not helping any of the hotels in Santa Fe,” he said.

When asked whether he thinks Santa Fe could see a bump in tourism after the show airs, Dimas said he had a hard time answering the question. “Maybe we can get some lovelorn women here that are looking for a bachelor or something,” he said. “I’m not sure what we’re going to get out of it.”

Randall told the council Wednesday that he had “made it through an episode and a half” of the show’s current season. “It’s very exciting,” he said with a hint of sarcasm.

While he hasn’t seen the episode based in Santa Fe or any B-roll material that ABC isn’t using for the show, Randall said he’s “confident” the show will be great for the city of Santa Fe. He the Santa Fe Community Convention Center hasn’t planned its own watch party because it already has an event scheduled that will take up the entire ballroom. “Our facility had a prior booking,” he said.

Randall also said that, unlike Buffalo Thunder, no hotel in Santa Fe offered to host a watch party.

The sales and marketing director for the hotel at Buffalo Thunder did not return a message seeking comment.

Buzz and Jean Bainbridge moved to New Mexico in the winter of 1946-47. Buzz Bainbridge was working as a sales representative for a ski company when his wife fell in love with Santa Fe. COURTESY PHOTO

Bainbridge: Worked at many resorts Continued from Page A-1 He later spent time at the La Madera resort, now the Sandia ski resort, before he returned to Santa Fe to operate the ski school in the winter of 1949-50.

Buzz Bainbridge spent the next five years as general manager for the Santa Fe Ski Basin. He told Daniel Gibson, a freelancer writer for The New Mexican, that he just wanted “bodies on the slopes.”

The younger Bainbridge said his father played a large role in recruiting tourists from Oklahoma and Texas. Steve Bainbridge said his father would walk up and down the slopes, asking visitors where they came from. He would give them a discount if they were part of a club. They often would form one on the spot, and Bainbridge would get information so he could track them down after they returned home to pitch the resort to their friends.

In 1960, Buzz Bainbridge left Santa Fe to start the Red River Ski Area, but a dry winter stifled his initial endeavor. He worked briefly for the Sierra Blanca Ski Area, and then ran the Snowbowl resort north of Flagstaff, Ariz. He also worked in Aspen, Colo., and at Jackson Hole, Wyo., before returning to New Mexico in 1973.

Buzz Bainbridge had a hand in other ski institutions as well.

Harvey Chalker, who with Reserl Chalker has run the Alpine Sports

His knowledge of the ski industry “ was above normal. He left a mark.

There’s no question about that. I am at a loss for words at this point.”

Harvey Chalker, Alpine Sports outdoor apparel and ski shop outdoor apparel and ski shop in Santa Fe for the past 50 years, said Bainbridge is the reason he is in Santa Fe. “His knowledge of the ski industry was above normal,” Chalker said. “He left a mark. There’s no question about that. I am at a loss for words at this point.”

Buzz Bainbridge served the state of New Mexico as director of tourism from 1987 to 1991, and he made a name for himself in the housing industry. He created and ran a construction company that specialized in building luxury adobe homes, which some real estate agents still describe as “Bainbridge” homes.

He ran a Boy Scouts troop, participated in a group that promoted competitive skiing and served with the Shriners philanthropic group.

He and Jean were honored as Santa Fe Living Treasures in 2010, and they were inducted into the New Mexico Ski Hall of Fame in 2004.

Steve Bainbridge said his father also loved sailing during his retirement.

The son described his father as

a stern disciplinarian who often said that “actions speak louder than words.” He had his three children working the mountain at 6 or 7 years old. “My father never paid much attention to child labor laws,” Steve Bainbridge joked.

Davey Pitcher, the CEO and president of the Wolf Creek Ski area in Colorado, said he was a youngster when he met Buzz Bainbridge. Pitcher said he worked with Bainbridge’s construction company and recalled that he cared for his employees.

Pitcher said Bainbridge’s death marked the loss of another of the Southwest’s ski pioneers.

Buzz Bainbridge is survived by his wife of 71 years, three children, five grandchildren and three greatgrandchildren. The family has asked that memorial contributions be made to the Alzheimer’s Association.

Scrutiny: Office also will examine capital outlay funds, spending Continued from Page A-1 for six years before he was elected auditor in November, fought for years for a serious tax expenditure study.

In 2011, Gov. Susana Martinez, like Gov. Bill Richardson before her, vetoed Keller’s tax expenditure bill.

Martinez announced her Department of Finance and Administration would conduct its own study. But the next year, when the department published its 129-page report, Keller was among the critics who said most state incentives weren’t analyzed.

“The ability to analyze the specific benefits of the tax expenditures is largely beyond the scope of the analyses summarized in this report, and

will require a concerted, multi-agency effort,” the report said.

The state Government Accountability Office, according to a news release, also will focus on funds earmarked for education and health care, including federal funds like Title II funding to American Indians, Title IX education funding for women and state Hispanic Education Act funding. It also will look at capital outlay spending, to make sure the funds go to the correct projects designated by the Legislature. “This could be things like funds spent on a new playground that were earmarked for a baseball field,” Keller said.

He said the accountability office will inform the public about unspent balances on capital outlay funds “sitting

on the sidelines in state government.”

The total of such funds currently is estimated at $900 million, although Keller said the real figure could be over $1 billion.

The office also will look at state spending on out-of-state contracts and work to ensure that local businesses are given a fair shot at government contracts.

Earlier this month at his public swearing-in ceremony, Keller got applause when he mentioned the state Human Services Department’s outsourcing of state mental health provider contracts to Arizona companies in 2013. This occurred after 15 New Mexico providers became subjects of a criminal investigation and lost their

Medicaid funding due to possible fraud.

This week, The New Mexican reported that one of the Arizona companies, Turquoise Health and Wellness, which offers behavioral health services to Medicaid patients in Carlsbad, Roswell, Clovis and Tucumcari, will shut down at the end of March.

Keller said he’s hired Ruby Ann Esquibel, who recently worked as an analyst for the Legislative Finance Committee, to head the accountability office.

Keller also announced his office will publish an annual “financial health report card” for all state and local agencies that his office audits.

“This initiative will make it easier

for the public to learn where problems exist and how the state auditor ensures that problems are addressed by public governments,” Keller said in a news release. “Over the next year, the Office of the State Auditor will be integrating the public, governments, policymakers, and independent auditors to take annual corrective actions to help remedy and prevent fraud, waste and abuse.”

The Legislative Finance Committee also examines the finances and performance of all state agencies.

“For instance,” he added, “I’ve heard from a number of people who have called on policymakers to ensure better record-keeping on injuries and deaths that occur at the hands of police. I’ve also spoken with law enforcement leaders — including the leadership of the Fraternal Order of Police — who have urged elected officials to consider strategies for collecting better data on officer fatalities.

“Today,” he said, “my response to these legitimate concerns is simple: We need to do both.”

Questions about the number of officers involved in shootings arose last year after a white officer fatally shot an unarmed black man in Ferguson, Mo. After the shooting, Ferguson residents and civil rights activists said the episode was part of a larger pattern of abusive tactics used by police departments throughout the U.S. But without reliable numbers, it was hard to quantify the problem.

A news release from the Justice Department about Holder’s speech said the FBI tracks the number of justifiable homicides by the police, but the figures have been criticized “as presenting an incomplete picture regarding the overall number of use-of-force incidents at the hands of police.”

The release said it’s voluntary for local police to report shooting incidents and many don’t.

“It is incumbent upon all of us to protect both the safety of our police officers and the rights and well-being of all of our citizens,” Holder said. “We can, and we must, examine new ways to do both.”

The program, conducted under Section 215 of the Patriot Act, collects the “to and from” information of most domestic landline calls, but not the content of the communications. It does not gather most cellphone calls for logistical and other reasons, officials have said.

Officials say the records are searched against known terrorist phone numbers a limited number of times per year, based on a judicial finding of reasonable suspicion, to probe possible links between terror suspects. Only a few dozen people in the government have access to the database.

If not used in a terrorism investigation, the data is supposed to be destroyed after five years.

The NSA also engages in other bulk collection of the email and

telephone content around the world that sweeps in Americans.

The agency says it minimizes the names of Americans and takes other steps to mitigate the privacy risk.

The report, while upholding bulk collection on scientific grounds, notes that it “leaves many uncomfortable.”

“Some find the idea that the U.S. government collects vast amounts of communications signals information about unsuspected U.S. persons abhorrent to the very notion of democracy, while others object to this decision being made under the cover of secrecy.”

But “a choice to eliminate all forms of bulk collection would have costs in intelligence capabilities,” the report concludes.

Animal plague cases confirmed in S.F. area 2 people had disease last year; last death was in ’13 The New Mexican

The New Mexico Department of Health has confirmed five cases of plague in animals in the Santa Fe area since November.

Testing by the department’s Scientific Laboratory Division identified the cases in three cats, one dog and one mouse. All of the animals are from residences in south Santa Fe near the

Interstate 25 corridor and between Cerrillos Road and Old Las Vegas Highway, according to a statement from the department.

“Plague activity can occur in New Mexico at any time of year, so it is important to take precautions to avoid

rodents and their fleas which can expose you to plague,” state Health Secretary Retta Ward said in the statement. “People can be exposed to plague when pets bring infected fleas back into the home, by caring for a sick pet without proper precautions, or by contact with rodents or fleas outdoors.”

Plague is a bacterial disease of rodents and is generally transmitted to humans through the bites of infected fleas. It can also be transmitted by

PREVENTION TIPS To prevent plague, the health officials recommend: u Preventing your pets from roaming and hunting. u Talking to your veterinarian about using an appropriate flea-control product on your pets, as not all products are safe for cats, dogs or children. u Cleaning up areas near the house where rodents could live, such as woodpiles, brush piles, junk and abandoned vehicles. u Having sick pets examined promptly by a veterinarian. u Seeing your doctor about any unexplained illness involving a sudden and severe fever. u Putting hay, wood and compost piles as far as possible from your home. u Keeping your pet’s food and water away from areas where mice can easily get to it.

Feds seek to fine Rodella $250,000 Prosecutors want additional penalty on top of prison time

Partnership looks to understand complex problems like Ebola

By Uriel J. Garcia

By Staci Matlock

The New Mexican

The New Mexican

In addition to seeking a stiff prison sentence for convicted former Rio Arriba County sheriff Tommy Rodella, the U.S. Attorney’s Office has asked a federal judge to impose a $250,000 fine.

The request is included in court documents that prosecutors filed Tommy in response Rodella to Rodella’s request for leniency when he is sentenced next week.

Rodella, 54, was convicted in September for violating an Española man’s civil rights while brandishing a handgun during an off-duty road rage incident last March. Rodella faces a mandatory seven years in prison on the firearm count and up to an additional 10 years for the civil rights count.

Earlier this week, Rodella’s lawyers filed a request for a sentence of no more than eight years, partly because Rodella suffers from a disorder called hemochromatosis, which causes high levels of iron in the blood, and also because the victim, Michael Tafoya, “did not suffer a bodily injury.” The document also says Rodella has submitted “over 300 letters from individuals in the community attesting to his character,” as well as “certificates and letters of commendation related to his law enforcement activities.”

Prosecutors said Rodella failed to fully disclose his assets during the pre-sentencing investigation, including an Albuquerque home valued at $235,011, which Rodella mortgaged in 2006.

In their response, prosecutors

When the Ebola virus began spreading through West Africa last year, it caught health organizations by surprise and prompted some faulty decisions by those trying to help stem the disease.

Missing was a better understanding of the complex dynamic that would occur when Ebola spread beyond the isolated villages where it was usually found, said Manfred Laubichler, a sustainability scientist at Arizona State University in Tempe. The virus sickened health workers and threatened to cause a crashing domino effect on whole economies.

A new partnership announced recently between the Santa Fe Institute and ASU will focus on understanding the complexities and broad implications of a given situation such as a disease outbreak, innovative technologies, climate change or urban growth.

“What we hope to accomplish is to mesh radically different institutions,” Laubichler said. “One is privately funded and small. The other is public and large.

In both, we have developed strong commitment to study complex systems.”

“The stars are aligned to make this happen,” agreed Jeremy A. Sabloff, archaeologist and president of the Santa Fe Institute. “Obviously it is an experiment. But it has huge benefits for both.”

The institute and the university have long-standing ties.

Laubichler is among a handful of ASU researchers who are also external faculty for the 30-year-old institute. Several post-doctoral students from the university have continued their research through the institute.

The Santa Fe Institute was formed by a diverse team of scientists to explore complex problems plaguing society and to generate possible solutions.

Complexity studies is a growing field at the university, which hosts a Center for Social Dynamics and Complexity and has an innovative president, Michael M. Crow, who believes in students studying across disciplines.

Together, students and faculty at the institute and the university will map out interconnections between biological and social systems through a joint Center for Biosocial Complexity. “The synergy of two intellectual powerhouses such as SFI and ASU can accelerate how our community and nation tackles questions such as disease patterns and healthcare delivery,” Crow said in a statement.

ASU initially will provide funding for the partnership. The money will help fund university graduate students at the institute, workshops and possibly joint appointments for researchers to work at both.

Much of the collaboration will be virtual, Sabloff said.

Santa Fe Police Chief Eric Garcia presents new officers during a City Council meeting Wednesday at City Hall. The city plans to bring eight more officers to the force next month in an effort to fill several vacancies. JANE PHILLIPS/THE NEW MEXICAN

11 new officers help fill Santa Fe’s police ranks City hoping to have only eight vacancies by the end of February

By Daniel J. Chacón The New Mexican

T

he Santa Fe Police Department welcomed 11 new officers this week, bringing the number of vacancies on the city force down to 10 as of Thursday.

The number of vacancies at the police department often rises and falls, affected by retirements, terminations and other personnel changes.

But with the infusion of 11 new officers, plus 11 cadets scheduled to start training at the state police academy and eight more hires of officers from other agencies who will join the force next month, the department expects to have no more than eight vacancies by the end of February, Chief Eric Garcia told city councilors this week.

Police spokeswoman Lt. Andrea Dobyns said it’s possible the department could be fully staffed in February. The department is authorized to have 181 officers.

“We do have 50 people [undergoing background checks], which is incredible,” she said.

“We’re doing better than most departments in the state, I believe, so hopefully we won’t have eight vacancies at the end of February.”

The most recent hires, eight new graduates of the academy and three lateral hires, were formally introduced at Wednesday’s council meeting.

“Protect us,” Mayor Javier Gonzales told the group. “Honor this community with the work that you do.”

Chief Eric Garcia said his recruiters have their ‘marching orders’ to try to recruit more women.

The new hires do not include any women.

In an interview, Garcia said his recruiters have their “marching orders” to try to recruit more women. The department currently employs 22 female officers.

“I would like to present to the City Council a group of 15 women,” he said. “I would love to do that. You know why? Because I’m a husband.

Because I’m a father of a young lady. Because I’m an uncle. I want this. I want to see them.

I want them to be part of the agency because they’re an asset.”

Garcia said two of the estimated 20 police officers he has hired since he started as chief in June are women.

He said not many women have applied to become police officers, something he wants to change. He said women considering a career in law enforcement should contact the department, which can arrange ride-alongs and one-on-one conversations with both male and female officers.

“If you look at the national standard across the country, it’s an all-time low for recruiting in general for law enforcement, and as far as recruiting females, it’s even harder now,” Garcia said.

Proposed crude oil pipeline draws dozens of protesters BLM gets earful on 50-mile project in northwest N.M.

By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

Teresa Seamster of Santa Fe — along with scores of Sierra Club members, environmentally conscious kids, Navajo activists and Chaco Canyon archaeologists — doesn’t want a proposed 130-mile crude oil pipeline built in northwestern New Mexico.

Chad Gilbert, representing about 300 Navajo welders and other members of the Pipefitters Union 798, favors construction of

the pipeline.

Seamster and Gilbert were among more than 140 people who crowded into the Bureau of Land Management office off N.M. 14 south of Santa Fe on Thursday evening for a public hearing on the project. Some had braved a winter storm the night before to attend a similar meeting in Lybrook.

The federal agency is hosting public meetings to gather input as it begins an environmental assessment of the pipeline project and its potential impacts on land, water, wildlife and cultural resources.

The BLM got an earful about the project Thursday, mostly

from people opposing it.

Saddle Butte San Juan Midstream, a Colorado-based company, has applied for a 75-footwide right of way to install 50 miles of pipeline to gather crude oil and 80 miles of pipeline for transporting the oil from the Lybrook Terminal Facility in Rio Arriba County to the BNSF Railway line near Milan or Prewitt.

The proposed pipeline would cross state and federal lands, as well as private lands and the Navajo Nation.

Developer planned retail project at shelter site Supreme Court The Skarsgard Firm P.C. said this week in a telephone message. “I don’t have any tenants in mind in particular, but I thought it was just a really good property on Cerrillos.”

Skarsgard said Cerrillos Road, one of Santa Fe’s busiest commercial corridors, is a “very difficult corridor” on which to find available land to do retail development. “So, I thought it would be a great opportunity to remodel that into a shopping center, a multi-

By Daniel J. Chacón The New Mexican

An Albuquerque developer who offered to buy the cityowned building that houses the Interfaith Community Shelter for the homeless says he wanted to turn the Cerrillos Road property into a shopping center.

“I had talked to the city about selling that because I thought it was a great property for a retail project,” Josh Skarsgard of the

tenant shops building,” Skarsgard said.

But, he said, his plans “didn’t work out.”

Skarsgard had offered to pay the city $23 a square foot for the approximately half-acre property, or a little over a half-million dollars.

The city spent about $1 million to buy the former Pete’s Pets store and help turn it into a homeless shelter.

The developer’s offer came a

few days after the City Council voted to extend Interfaith’s lease for the building at 2801 Cerrillos Road. The lease renewal followed public outcry over a proposal by City Councilor Chris Rivera to look for alternative locations for the homeless shelter, which has generated complaints from neighboring residents and business owners.

“The city decided to keep it as a homeless shelter for [three] years,” Skarsgard said.

Oil: Pipeline expected to cut trucking costs Continued from Page A-8

HOW TO COMMENT

rent infrastructure can’t handle the crude oil being developed and produced in the San Juan Basin. Most of the oil is trucked from Lybrook to processing facilities some 750 miles away, he said. Trucking increases costs and risks more than using a pipeline.

Seamster, representing the Rio Grande Chapter of the Sierra Club at the meeting, said the project is among many concerns arising as the BLM and oil and gas companies seek to tap resources in what is known as the Mancos Shale formation. She said the pipeline and development of the oil field raise a host of public health concerns, including the potential for water contamination and increased methane emissions, a greater risk for pipeline accidents and increased crime in towns hosting oil field workers. She said the Sierra Club wants the BLM to halt the application process,

u Written comments on the pipeline are due to the BLM by Jan. 30. Comments may be submitted by mail to BLM Farmington Field Office, Attention: Scott Hall, 6251 N. College Blvd. Suite A, Farmington, NM 87402; by email to BLM_NM_FFO_Comments@blm.gov; or by fax to 564-7607.

conduct a more detailed review required for an environmental impact statement, consider the cumulative impacts of all oil and gas development in the region and fund a health assessment, as required by the White House Council on Environmental Quality.

People in the room gave a collective start when archaeologist Anna Sofaer rose to speak. Sofaer is a noted Chaco Canyon archaeologist who discovered the “Sun Dagger” in a spiral petroglyph in 1977, which launched her three-decade investigations

in the region. The ancient Chaco world was integrated, she said, blending earth, sky and architecture, and oil and gas development there threatens to disrupt that and fragment a unique place of deep value.

Only a handful of people clapped when Gilbert spoke for the pipefitters union, including Navajo men sitting beside him. Gilbert, who said he is a third-generation pipeline welder, commented on behalf of the skilled workers who depend on $50-an-hour pipeline jobs, which come with health care and retirement plans. “To imply these workers would be better off working at McDonald’s and jobs like that is disrespectful,” Gilbert said.

He said “green” energy is necessary, but so is domestically produced oil and gas. “We need to develop oil in America, not in the Middle East,” he said, asking the BLM not to delay the application process for the pipeline.

Plague: Disease symptoms include fever, chills Continued from Page A-8 direct contact with infected animals, including rodents, wildlife and pets, according to the Health Department.

“We are seeing die-offs of rabbits, squirrels, pack rats and various rodents in several areas of New Mexico from both plague

and tularemia,” said Dr. Paul Ettestad, public health veterinarian for the Health Department.

“Dogs and cats can be infected with plague through hunting rodents and rabbits or by exposure to their fleas.”

Symptoms of plague in humans include sudden onset of fever, chills, headache and weakness.

There is a painful swelling of the lymph nodes in the groin, armpit or neck areas. Plague symptoms in cats and dogs are fever, lethargy and loss of appetite. There may be a swelling in the lymph node under the jaw.

With prompt diagnosis and antibiotic treatment, the fatality rate in people and pets can be greatly

reduced. In New Mexico in 2014, there were 17 confirmed cases of plague in dogs and cats. Two humans contracted plague in New Mexico in 2014; one of these is thought to have contracted the disease from his cat. Both patients recovered from the illness. There were four human plague cases in 2013, with one fatality.

to decide if pot flyover search violated rights

By Russell Contreras The Associated Press

The state Supreme Court has heard arguments in the case of a Taos County man who claims his privacy rights were violated when a flyover of his remote property by authorities prompted a ground search that turned up marijuana plants.

The outcome of the case could affect the ability of law enforcement agencies to use drones and other means of aerial surveillance.

Allison Jaramillo, an attorney for Norman Davis, said her client’s home is located in a rugged, rural area and his property was unconstitutionally searched by a militarystyle helicopter.

“They can’t conduct this intrusive, targeted search without a warrant,” Jaramillo said.

The home of Davis, now 79, in the Carson area of Taos County was checked during a 2006 operation of the New Mexico State Police, the National Guard and the state Game and Fish Department. Authorities were looking for pot-growing operations.

Authorities said a search was conducted with the reluctant consent of Davis after a spotter in the helicopter saw vegetation in Davis’ greenhouse and plants outside.

New Mexico Assistant Attorney General Martha Anne Kelly said during the hearing that officers did not initially enter his home or detain Davis. Kelly said officers asked to search the property, and Davis consented.

“If the helicopter flight had not occurred, [officers] would probably not have been there,” Kelly said.

Davis was charged with possession of 8 ounces or more of marijuana, a fourth-degree felony, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Davis entered a conditional plea whereby his record was cleared after he had no law violations for a year.

The New Mexico Supreme Court and the state Court of Appeals previously upheld a judge’s ruling that officers didn’t coerce Davis into signing his consent for the search, but the case returned to the Court of Appeals to consider other legal issues.

A Jan. 14 ruling by a three-judge panel said the flyover didn’t violate Davis’ protections under the federal Fourth Amendment because it was conducted in navigable air space and didn’t interfere with Davis’ normal use of his property. However, the ruling said the New Mexico Constitution provides greater protections against unreasonable search and seizures, and that the aerial surveillance effectively was a search that requires a warrant.

Continued from Page A-8 said the blood disorder didn’t prevent Rodella from roughing up Tofoya and that he deserves a strict sentence. Prosecutors also argued that even if Rodella “submitted over 300,000 letters, they would not change the true facts of his life.” The prosecutors listed a number of instances in which Rodella abused his authority during his law enforcement career.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office said that during Rodella’s time as sheriff, he had deputies dismiss or mitigate traffic tickets in exchange for votes for his wife, state Rep. Debbie Rodella, D-Española. Prosecutors presented evidence last year showing that after a car chase, Rodella brandished a handgun before Tafoya was pulled from his car and shoved to the ground, and that Rodella had stuck his badge in Tafoya’s face. After arresting Tafoya on a charge that was later dropped, the sheriff allegedly lied about what had happened.

PAUL ABRAHAM STOESZ JULY 4, 1923 - JANUARY 7, 2015 Paul Stoesz died peacefully January 7, 2015 at El Castillo in Santa Fe, New Mexico where he had lived the past 27 years with his wife, Dotty, who passed away almost seven months earlier.

Born in Mt. Lake, Minnesota, Paul developed an early interest in the outdoors and music which lasted his entire life; he became an Eagle Scout, hiked and camped, played the piano and sang in the church choir. He joined the Army Air Force reserves during World War II and graduated from the University of Nebraska Medical School, Omaha, where he met Dotty, a nurse in training. Once the war ended, he and Dotty married February 9, 1946.

For a short time Paul pursued cancer research at the University of Wisconsin but left to pursue a lifetime dream; to practice family medicine in a rural community. The young family moved to Bassett in the Sandhills of Nebraska where they served as medical staff for a 25-bed community hospital. There Paul was called on to do everything he was trained to do, and more, from performing appendectomies to grinding lenses for eye glasses. The family enjoyed small town life until the advent of the Korean War, when Paul entered the Air Force. Paul commuted from Wichita, Kansas to Bassett for two years while completing his military service.

Discharged as a Captain, the family relocated to Hutchinson, Kansas where Paul joined a group medical practice, specializing in obstetrics and anesthesiology. During three decades of private practice, he delivered hundreds of babies into this world. Some of the thankful parents kept Paul informed of their children’s lives as they grew up. He obtained a private pilot’s license and enjoyed cross-country flying - weather permitting. One day on the runway, a gust of wind flipped the Cessna upside-down, but Paul was strapped into the pilot’s seat, enjoying an unexpected view of the horizon. In Hutchinson, he and Dotty were active in the local community theatre company, performing in countless productions.

With aging parents to care for, the family moved to Lincoln, Nebraska. There, Paul practiced in the student health clinic for a short period before becoming the State Epidemiologist. The spread of a new, fatal disease called on Paul to address, in print and personal appearances, the consequences of what became known as AIDS. At the same time, Paul worked with a community group to establish a health maintenance organization in Lincoln. He was a member of Toastmasters Club and an ardent environmentalist and outdoorsman; a hiker, camper, cross-country bicyclist, gardener and an active member of the Sierra Club.

Upon retirement, Paul and Dotty moved to Santa Fe where he and his brother, Roy, and his wife built adjacent homes. Paul added more skills to his repertoire, becoming a cook, a baker, a brewer and an accomplished weaver. He contributed to the community as Chair of the Board of the local AIDS organization and President of Open Hands. In these diverse activities, Paul was a true Western Renaissance Man. With the deterioration of Dotty’s health, the couple moved to El Castillo, where they enjoyed the care of staff, and often hosted their children and grandchildren. Ever the physician, Paul would have wanted the cause of death (Alzheimer’s Disease) to be reported.

Paul is survived by a brother, Roy, of Santa Fe, New Mexico and a sister, Lynn Wickham, of Lincoln, Nebraska, by children David of Springfield, Illinois, Darcy Predmore of Wichita, Kansas and Timothy of San Diego, California, four grandchildren and one great grandchild.

A memorial service will be held at El Castillo in February.

Instead of flowers, the family has requested that donations be made to: Trees for Life International, 3006 W. St. Louis St, Wichita, Kansas 67203.

Man exposes self to girl inside car State has dry A 16-year-old girl told police start to new year that she was napping in her car at the Santa Fe Place mall parking lot during a break from her job Monday when she awoke to see a man exposing his genitals against the passenger-side window of her car.

Lt. Andrea Dobyns, a spokeswoman for Santa Fe Police Department, said the teen reported that she screamed and the man left.

The suspect was described as a heavy-set, older man.

Dobyns said police who reviewed surveillance video saw the man get into a white car and drive away.

ALBUQUERQUE — Federal forecasters say the Southwest is among the areas of the country that are starting the year drier than normal, and that could mean a fifth straight year of drought for New Mexico.

The forecast was released Thursday by the National Water and Climate Center.

It says New Mexico and other states are experiencing prolonged drought, which has focused attention on winter snowpack throughout the region. Snowpack serves as an indicator of how much water can be expected to flow through rivers and streams later in the year.

There were a few storms that produced decent snowfall in the higher northern terrain in December. But forecasters say early season snowpack is below normal in the mountains of New Mexico.

Hydrologist Cara McCarthy says this is just the first forecast of the season, so things could change.

SFI: Pair to examine growing urban areas Continued from Page A-8 “Many new centers arise on college campuses and become bureaucratized,” he said. “We hope to avoid that.”

Among the first projects the institute and the university will explore are the dynamics of innovation, urbanization and scaling in cities. Phoenix and other metropolitan areas around the world face multiple challenges as growing urban centers in the midst of a desert with dwindling water supplies.

Those are challenges that cities must resolve to be sustainable into the future.

Complex problems have to be understood correctly, or well-intentioned answers can be wrong, like building huge clinics in a city instead of mobile clinics that could

respond quickly to a disease outbreak like Ebola in outlying villages, Laubichler said.

A long-term project that the institute and university are working on is a Southwest research center that would bring Native American and Hispanic students together with researchers to work on real-world problems. They’ve applied to the National Science Foundation for a major grant to fund the center. “The idea is if you introduce them to science through a problem that affects their communities, you can actually recruit them into science,” Laubichler said.

JOSEPHINE MARGARET HOUSER ANN RUTLEDGE Ann Rutledge, 84, born in Wichita Falls, Texas on May 18, 1930 to Paul and Mildred Rutledge, passed away on January 12, 2015. Ann graduated from Highland Park High School in Dallas and upon arrival in Santa Fe in 1947 attended UNM, majoring in physical education. Beloved dance teacher Elizabeth Waters discovered her talent and convinced Ann to attend summer sessions at Perry-Mansfield School of Theater and Dance in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. From there she joined the Harriet Ann Gray Dance Company of New York and toured the country for a number of years, learning advanced choreography from Doris Humphrey and Helen Tamaris in New York in the early 50’s. She also studied cinematography at New York University and served as assistant director of the New York School of Dance and Anatomy. In addition, she studied lighting techniques with Arch Lauterer and toured with the Halprin-Lathrop Dancers of San Francisco as lighting designer. Ann continued to perform in dance concerts (including the Community Concert Association) and solo performances throughout the 60’s and 70’s, closer to home. She carried the flag in many Santa Fe rodeo parades while her parents towed their famous steam calliope. For many years she taught exercise classes here in Santa Fe. In addition she was also a talented artist who drew, painted and wrote poetry.

The highlight of her life was playing Tessie Tura in the 1963 production of "Gypsy" at Popejoy Hall. She enjoyed attending various live music venues around town as she was an avid music fan.

She liked to play the drums, having trained with Nick Luchetti.

She and her best friend Marge Gans were a familiar sight around town, cruising in their matching red convertibles.

The love of her life was her white standard poodle Tammy. Ann entered Tammy in several dog shows and obedience trials.

She was a generous philanthropist, helping to support many non-profits in Santa Fe and beyond. She especially loved the National Dance Institute of New Mexico and the dance program at UNM. She is survived by her cousins Noros and Dee Ann Martin of Wichita Falls, Texas and Lou and Jon Bauman of Dallas, Texas as well as a host of friends and admirers. She left the world a better place and will be missed greatly. Those wishing to honor her memory can be generous, be kind and keep a song in their hearts. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the National Dance Institute of New Mexico.

COMMENTARY: FRANK BRUNI

Mitt Romney to the rescue? Puh-leeze

T

here’s an adage in my business that it’s not news when a dog bites a man, only when a man bites a dog.

By that reasoning, the political story of the year so far is Paul Ryan’s announcement that he will not run for president.

Seemingly everyone else in his party will. Rick Santorum’s back. George Pataki’s back. Mike Huckabee’s back, with an alliterative new book (God, Guns, Grits and Gravy) that sounds like an agenda hijacked by a Denny’s menu, or maybe a sequel to Fried Green Tomatoes starring Mel Gibson and a howitzer.

Even Rick Perry’s back. I’d tick off three reasons that he’s crazy to try again except that I can remember only two.

He’s a whole new candidate, at least on the accessories front. It’s been said that Americans give you 10 additional IQ points if you have a British accent; he’s betting on an extra five for eyeglasses.

And now — the heart quickens and the flesh quivers — Mitt Romney’s back.

That’s the word this week: that he’s inching ever closer to another presidential bid, which we know because he’s articulated as much to donors.

Doesn’t it pretty much say everything about our political process right now that candidates flag their intentions first to the people they’ll be hitting up for money? And that the way they attempt to clear the field isn’t with a surge in polls but with a fortune in the bank? I bet some of them form PACs before they bother to tell their spouses what’s up. It’s called priorities.

By one count that I just came across, there are 25 Republicans of some standing who have signaled at least a flickering interest in the 2016 race. This certainly explains the dip in unemployment. Thousands of Republican presidential strate-

gists and advisers have been added to payrolls.

It also explains the difference between the parties. Democrats want to expand government. Republicans want to expand auditions for it.

A Romney candidacy would be curious in the extreme. In 2000, Al Gore beat George W. Bush in the popular vote and lost the presidency by dint of a Supreme Court ruling; he nonetheless let someone else carry the Democratic banner in 2004.

That person was John Kerry, who came closer to winning than Romney did, and yet he, too, didn’t circle back four years later for more punishment.

From what I hear, Romney began mulling a third bid for the presidency months ago, when the Republican establishment remained skeptical of Chris Christie and when it wasn’t at all certain that Jeb Bush would join the race. Romney was poised to rush in like a cinematically coifed superhero and save the party from the deliriums of Rand Paul and the diatribes of Ted Cruz.

By the time Bush began all the maneuvering of the last four weeks, Romney had developed the itch. He also apparently believes that Bush’s support for Common Core educational standards and immigration reform will cripple him in the primaries.

If Bush formalizes a candidacy and Romney follows suit, he’d run to Bush’s right. But Bush is the one with the truly conservative record as a governor, in Florida, while Romney is the one with a moderate record from Massachusetts.

He’d be flipping the script, and if his political orientation was confusing last time around, it would be only more so this time.

He’s reportedly concerned that Bush’s

financial dealings will make him acutely vulnerable to attacks. So the solution is …

Romney?

His campaign would be predicated on buyer’s remorse: Voters could have had him and now get a do-over. But the buyers may be growing less remorseful. Romney had promised them that by the end of his first term, unemployment would be at or under 6 percent. It’s there already, in half the time.

Romney, Perry and others forget that when they’re not candidates, they’re well loved. When they are, they’re well trashed. Today’s fascination is tomorrow’s flop on Meet the Press, a hapless porterhouse for the panel to carve up.

Some Republicans (and Democrats) are simply chasing higher speaking fees, maybe a book like Huckabee’s, hold the gravy.

But there’s a cost to us. An overcrowded field of candidates doesn’t mean a more spirited exchange of ideas; it means so many voices that none get properly heard (or vetted).

Remember those early Republican debates during the last cycle, when so many contenders fanned out across the stage that they looked like misbegotten Rockettes? We could have twice that number in 2016. We could have a crowd scene in Cats.

So I’d say to Romney what he said to The New York Times’ Ashley Parker when she asked him early last year about one more campaign: “Oh, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

End War on Drugs to reduce conflicts

W

e are all disheartened by the conflict between police and many black men. A major factor seems to be the War on Drugs that we ask police to wage. It is public knowledge that the arrest rates of African Americans is many times that of white youth although statistics show that usage is comparable among similar age groups. In effect, the police have been asked to wage a war not supported by the general public.

It is generally acknowledged that the War on Drugs has been a phenomenally expensive disaster. Perhaps it is time to resurrect common sense and end the war.

National attitudes on marijuana use have changed indicating that this direction is gaining acceptance.

We should end the war. This will require the public attitude, especially of social conservatives, change. This is not as a war on conservatives but a time of reconciliation.

ncertainty is the new certainty for patients who need behavioral health services in New Mexico.

First, there was the statewide shake-up of programs back in 2013, caused when providers were accused of fraud and mismanagement so severe the entire system had to be torn apart and Arizona companies brought in to manage care. To date, those charges remain unresolved.

Now comes the news that an Arizona nonprofit that supervises care in southeastern New Mexico is leaving.

Turquoise Health and Wellness, which offered mental health services to Medicaid patients, is shutting down March 31. That means that indigent patients — the most vulnerable — in Carlsbad, Roswell, Clovis and Tucumcari face could be left high and dry.

The state New Mexico Human Services Department is saying that private contractors that administer the state Medicaid behavioral health programs must find new providers for clients. Those contractors, not the state, are responsible for ensuring patients have the help they need, says HSD. Considering the state broke the system back in 2013, a hands-off approach is hardly what’s needed in this latest upheaval. Especially since New Mexico has spent some $24 million to help the five Arizona agencies become established in New Mexico to replace terminated providers. Yet that’s not enough, apparently.

Turquoise Health and Wellness could be just the first of the new providers to turn tail and run — evidently, after the initial pot of money is spent, making a profit is difficult.

Meanwhile, the patients who need mental health services will suffer, an unacceptable but seemingly inevitable outcome of a shake-up that still makes little sense.

Beyond finding providers in southeastern New Mexico to take over care in April, a job that state HSD officials should definitely watch to see it is done right, more needs to be done to overhaul the entire behavioral health management system. Surely, between smart people in the administration and health experts in the Legislature and private sector, New Mexico can fashion a system that puts the certainty back into care for those who need it most.

A souper Saturday

O

ne of Santa Fe’s favorite charity events is happening this weekend — the Souper Bowl raises money for The Food Depot while also bringing out the competitive juices of area chefs. Now in its 21st year, some 29 local restaurants are participating in the annual charity event (which is a few weeks ahead of the actual Super Bowl, but close enough).

Participants get to try tastes of yummy soup — categories are vegetarian, savory, cream and seafood — handed out in 2-ounce cups. The crowd gets to vote on the winner (last year a butternut squash soup from Terra Restaurant won). This year’s event takes place from noon to 2:30 p.m.

Saturday at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center, with admission $30 in advance or $35 at the door for adults.

Besides the soup, there also will be a silent auction and the Souper Bowl cookbook is on sale for $20. On a cold day, spending time with hot soup and a good cause can’t be beat. After the rush of holiday food drives and other giving, it’s also a good time to set good habits for 2015. Hunger is a year-round problem, and donating at the beginning of the year is a way to get in the habit of helping out not just in January, but in June or September. What a great way to start the year!

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Jan. 16, 1915: The question of prohibiting nepotism in New Mexico will come before the present legislature early next week, when Representative Mullens, Democrat of Chaves County will introduce in the house a sweeping anti-nepotism measure. Bill applies not only to government but school districts and other subdivisions.

Jan. 16, 1990: Skiing in Santa Fe this year is so bad that ski shop manager Fred Harms has stopped watching television weather forecasts and has resorted to prayer instead.

Unless Harms’ weather prayers are answered, the ski season of 1989/90 is threatening to be a repeat of 88/89 when the slopes were brown for much of the winter.

Republicans push to reinstate Secure Communities program

By Julia Preston

Arturo Hernández García, a floor contractor facing deportation, greets his daughter at the First Unitarian Church in Denver last month. A 2010 arrest over a workplace dispute left Hernández García ensnared in the system; he’s been living at the church in an effort to stay.

The New York Times

DENVER — For four years, Arturo Hernández García, an immigrant from Mexico, tried every legal move to stop his deportation. As a last resort, he camped out in the basement of a church here, taking sanctuary from federal agents trying to expel him.

Obama administration officials have long said they are not looking to deport undocumented immigrants like Hernández García — a taxpaying business owner and parent of a U.S. citizen. But after he was arrested over a workplace argument in 2010, immigration authorities were alerted to his status by a federal monitoring program.

They began deportation proceedings that have continued, even though he has been cleared of the criminal charges.

Hernández García was ensnared by an enforcement program known as Secure Communities, which connected local and state police departments across the country with federal immigration enforcement. Now the program, which generated the majority of the 2.3 million deportations under the Obama administration, is at the center of the battle between the president and Republicans who control Congress over his executive actions to transform the deportation system.

Along with the hotly contested initiatives he announced in November allowing millions of unauthorized immigrants to stay and work legally, President Barack Obama also canceled Secure Communities, replacing it with a new program that will greatly reduce the threat of deportation for immigrants who, like Hernández García, have no record of serious crimes.

Under sharply revised priorities that were part of the president’s package, immigration agents will focus almost exclusively on deporting terrorists, gang members and felons.

Republicans describe Obama’s actions as an unconstitutional overreach and have vowed to reverse them. On Wednesday, the House passed a Homeland Security funding bill that would cancel his programs protecting illegal immigrants.

The measure would restore Secure Communities and give it increased funding, while taking away the president’s authority to set priorities for deportation.

Obama said Monday that he would veto the measure, which

now goes to the Senate.

Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, called it “a reasonable response to the extreme actions the president has taken to undermine and rewrite our immigration laws.”

But to administration officials, Secure Communities had become a liability, causing separations of long-settled immi-

grant families, fraying relations with local police departments and generating damaging legal challenges. In a Nov. 20 memorandum canceling the program, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said it had “become a symbol for general hostility toward the enforcement of our immigration laws.”

Consulates should be able to issue birth certificates for nearly all places in Mexico, though some villages where documents are not digitally recorded may not be covered, Sanchez said.

The new practice comes two weeks after California — home to more Mexicans than any other state — began issuing driver’s licenses to immigrants who are in the country illegally.

After handing out birth certificates in Santa Ana, Jose Antonio Meade, Mexico’s secretary of foreign affairs, said his government hopes Obama’s program moves forward and that “the gap that today exists between the rights of citizens and the rights of immigrants every day will continue closing.”

Republican Rep. Duncan

Hunter, who represents the San Diego-area, complained that U.S. and Mexican policies have combined to send more people across the border illegally.

“The administration’s position and efforts seem to better align with Mexico’s interests than they do with our own — and that’s disappointing,” he said.

Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies, said ensuring birth certificates are authentic is critical because they are used to obtain key identity documents, such as passports.

“If we can trust the Mexican government to do its due diligence and establish a system with integrity, then this will work,” she said. But she added: “That is a big if.”

No ruling in effort to block orders BROWNSVILLE, Texas — A federal judge in South Texas didn’t immediately rule on whether to grant a request by a coalition of 25 states to temporarily block President Barack Obama’s executive action on immigration while a lawsuit to permanently stop the order goes through the courts.

U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen on Thursday heard arguments on the request during a hearing in Brownsville.

Obama’s executive action aims to spare from deportation as many as 5 million people who are in the U.S. illegally.

The first of Obama’s orders is set to take effect next month.

the program. And to get a Mexican passport, they need a birth certificate.

That has proved to be a problem for many Mexican immigrants.

Those who cross the border illegally to reach the United States rarely carry documents with them on the treacherous journey, partly to avoid detection. And some Mexicans born in remote, rural communities do not make the necessary journey to the nearest government office to start the process of obtaining a birth certificate.

Mexico’s 50 consulates in the U.S. can now access data in Mexico and print birth certificates here, said Arturo Sanchez, consul for press and commercial affairs in Santa Ana.

SFIS coach suspended for game vs.

Technology means more correct calls, scrutiny

School took action after non-handshake incident

By James Barron The New Mexican

The handshake that didn’t happen also didn’t go away.

Santa Fe Indian School head girls basketball coach Lanse Carter was suspended by the school for Thursday’s nondistrict game against Pojoaque Valley for walking off the court after the Lady Braves lost to Española Valley on Monday night. The incident occurred right after the game, as Carter did not shake hands with the Lady Sundevils or the coaching staff, as is customLanse Carter ary after high school games.

According to sources close to both programs, the incident began with a timeout with about 15 seconds left in the game and words were exchanged between Cindy Roybal the two coaches.

Video was captured of Carter and a few players walking toward the locker room as the Lady Sundevils walked toward the SFIS side of the court immediately after the game on the “Española Basketball” Twitter feed.

Carter declined to speak about the matter, but SFIS Superintendent Roy Herrera said it was a teaching moment to enforce an important component of the school’s core values that it takes very seriously.

“A good part of that is respect, and, of course, that follows along with sportsmanship,” Herrera said. “And coach realized he made a mistake by not valuing the core values in that instance.”

SFIS athletic director Matt Martinez was not at the game in Española, but said Carter made a bad choice in not shaking hands with Roybal, who coached previously at SFIS from 2008-13, and the players. He added

NEW YORK — The officials huddled to sort out the close call, so the TV broadcast showed the clip over and over, the announcers declaring a definite touchdown.

Standard fare today — but not so 35 years ago. Mike Renfro, whose lunging catch in the back of the end zone was eventually ruled incomplete, suspects that’s why so many fans remember — and rue — the play from the 1979 AFC champion-

Emmert: Autonomy lets revenue, nonrevenue sports co-exist

By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press

NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. — NCAA President Mark Emmert says giving the five wealthiest conferences in Division I the ability to make some of their own rules will allow revenue sports such as football and men’s basketball to co-exist with the many nonrevenue programs that make up college sports.

Emmert addressed the NCAA convention Thursday and held Mark a news conference Emmert after with several university presidents, two days ahead of the first meeting of the so-called autonomy group, the 65 schools that make up the Big Ten, Big 12, Atlantic Coast Conference, Pac-12 and Southeastern Conference.

“We’ve got 3 percent of the students that participate in those high-revenue, high-visibility sports,” Emmert said. “We’ve got to find ways to integrate and address their concerns, while not negatively impacting the 97 percent and vice versa. The autonomy structure that [Wake Forest] President [Nathan] Hatch and

anta Fe High is about to be tested like it never has before, so it wanted to do a trial run on Thursday.

The Demons open District 1AAAAAA play at Rio Rancho on Jan. 20, and a nondistrict boys basketball game with Capital in Toby Roybal Memorial Gymnasium was their last chance to work out the kinks.

Santa Fe High wasted no time getting the lead in the first quarter, and the Demons didn’t let up en route to a 50-33 win. This game was not nearly as close as the 51-46 Capital win in the Stu Clark Tournament on Dec. 28 or the 39-38 win the Demons pulled off in the third-place game of the Bobby Rodriguez Capital City Tournament on Dec. 13.

“We wanted to come out swinging and hit them with the first punch, and I think we did that well,” Junior Santa Fe High guard Warren Fulgenzi said. “In other games, we would come out on fire and lose the lead, so we just wanted to keep going.”

Possibly more surprising that the final score was the fact that the Demons (11-7) kept Capital leading scorer Eric Coca, who averages 23 points a game, to just two points on two free throws in the first quarter.

Santa Fe High head coach David Rodriguez is going to see some talented scorers in his district — which includes Rio Rancho Cleveland, Rio Rancho plus Albuquerque Volcano Vista and Cibola — so he wanted his team to prepare for shutting them down by shutting down Coca.

“The message tonight was to play the way we need to in districts to give ourselves a chance, and we did that,” Rodriguez said. “If you don’t do a good job on the leading scorers in our district, then they’re going to

UConn reports second consecutive perfect APR

By Pat Eaton-Robb The Associated Press

STORRS, Conn. — Connecticut’s national champion men’s basketball team has submitted its second consecutive perfect academic progress rate score to the NCAA since being forced to sit out the 2013 postseason under academic sanctions.

The score of 1,000, which covers the 2013-14 school year, won’t be official until the NCAA comes out with its national academic progress report in the spring. It was submitted by the school to the NCAA in October and obtained this week by The Associated Press under a state open records request.

The program also had a perfect 1,000 for the 2012-13 academic year.

Athletic Director Warde Manuel said the score is a reflection on the type of student-athlete third-year coach Kevin Ollie has recruited into the program, and a commitment by

the school to make academics a top priority of its student-athletes.

“We focus on making them understand that it is about winning in the classroom and on the court or field of play,” Manuel said. “We want them to do both and we believe they can do both.”

The rate doesn’t track grades, but measures whether students are in good academic standing. Athletes receive points each semester for remaining academically eligible and remaining in school or graduating.

Schools aren’t necessarily hurt when a player leaves school before graduation, as long as the player turns professional, but they can take a hit if the player is not academically eligible when they leave.

UConn was barred from both the 2013 Big East Tournament and the NCAA Tournament based on the APR scores from the 2007-08 through 2010-11 academic years.

Over the past several years, UConn

Sports editor: James Barron, 986-3045, jbarron@sfnewmexican.com Design and headlines: Eric J. Hedlund, ehedlund@sfnewmexican.com

has put in changes in an effort to boost the scores. Those include mandated sanctions for any player who misses three or more classes during the academic year and daily checks of course work for student-athletes who have a grade-point average of 2.3 or lower.

Players also are required to attend at least nine hours of summer school each year and adhere to a “graduation plan” created to ensure each player is on a path to graduate, even if they leave school early for the NBA or other opportunities.

Guard Omar Calhoun said the team also has weekly meetings with its academic adviser and each player has a detailed schedule to know when they should be working on academics and when they can concentrate on basketball.

“Coach Ollie makes sure we’re on top of our books,” he said. “If we’re not, then we don’t play. So guys take that pretty seriously. We know what

it was like to miss the tournament and we don’t want to do that to the next guys coming in.”

Teams must have a 930 four-year average APR or a 940 average over the most recent two years to participate in the 2015 NCAA tournament.

In 2015-16 and beyond, teams must earn a four-year APR of 930 to compete in any NCAA championship.

The 2013-14 score will give the UConn men a four-year average of 983, well above those qualifying marks.

The national champion women’s basketball team, which had a perfect score for the 2012-13 school year, reported a 975 APR for 2013-14, giving it a four-year average of 982.

The school’s football team reported a 970 APR, giving it a fouryear average of 960. That team’s APR has climbed steadily from a 950 in 2010-11, earning scores of 955 and 964 over the two subsequent years.

Coach: ‘Teachable’ moment Continued from Page B-1 that Carter has written a letter of apology to Española Valley and Herrera said he talked to Española Superintendent Danny Trujillo and Española Valley athletic coordinator Eric Vigil about his actions.

“You gotta keep perspective on sportsmanship and competing with class,” Martinez said. “The initiative by the [New Mexico Activities Association] is something to work on here on the sideline as a coach. I tell my coaches and my administration and whoever that the hardwood floor is an extension of the classroom.”

Martinez added that at the heart of the non-handshake are the points at which Carter’s and Roybal’s careers intersect.

Roybal coached at Pojoaque Valley from

2002-05, and led the Elkettes to the Class AAA (now AAAA) semifinals her final two years. Carter took over after her in 2006 and helped guide the program to consecutive state titles in 2008 and 2009.

Roybal left SFIS in 2013, and after a season under JoJo Valdez, Carter took the job at SFIS in the summer. She also has maintained that the foundation she set at Pojoaque helped Carter win his state titles. In reporting Monday’s score to The New Mexican, Roybal made reference to her ties to current Lady Braves whom she coached.

She specifically pointed out performance of senior Kayla Joe, who played under Roybal her sophomore year and scored 19 points.

“You can tell who coached her — and you can quote me on that,” Roybal said.

Ali back in hospital for ‘follow-up care’

By Bruce Schreiner The Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Muhammad Ali was back in the hospital Thursday for follow-up care related to a severe urinary tract infection, his second stint in the hospital in the last four weeks.

The three-time former heavyweight champion was admitted to an undisclosed hospital earlier this week, Ali family spokesman Bob Gunnell said Thursday.

Ali is in stable condition.

Ali was hospitalized Dec. 20 with what was initially believed to be a mild case of pneumonia.

Doctors later determined Ali was suffering from a urinary tract

infection, not pneumonia, Gunnell said.

“There were still issues with the urinary tract infection,” he said of the latest hospitalization.

Muhammad The man Ali known worldwide for his boxing prowess and humanitarian work has been spending his time listening to music, reading and watching old movies, Gunnell said. Ali is expected to be released Friday.

Ali turns 73 on Saturday and hopes to spend it at one of his

homes with family, Gunnell said.

Ali and his wife, Lonnie, have homes in Paradise Valley, Ariz.; Berrien Springs, Mich.; and in Louisville.

Gunnell said he expects Ali’s birthday to include watching the Louisville-Duke men’s college basketball game. Ali is a Louisville native, and the Muhammad Ali Center — which showcases Ali’s humanitarian causes and boxing career — is a popular attraction in Kentucky’s largest city.

Ali’s public appearances have diminished in recent years as he wages his long-running fight against Parkinson’s disease, but he still enjoys getting out and watching sports and visiting friends.

Friday, January 16, 2015 THE NEW MEXICAN

B-3

PREP ROUNDUP

St. Mike’s beats Las Vegas Robertson The New Mexican

The St. Michael’s Horsemen displayed their quintessential defense, but they needed a half to demonstrate quintessential finishing.

St. Michael’s 49 They forced 26 turnovers out of Robertson 38 the Las Vegas Robertson Cardinals in the opening round of the Horsemen Shootout round-robin boys basketball tournament in Perez-Shelley Gymnasium on Thursday night, but they couldn’t convert them to points until the second half of a 49-38 win.

St. Michael’s forced 15 first-half turnovers, but found itself trailing Robertson 24-21 at the half. Much of that came from missing shots off of those turnovers. The execution was much better in the third quarter, as the Horsemen outscored the visitors 15-6 to take a 36-30 lead into the fourth quarter.

Marcus Pincheira-Sandoval led St. Michael’s (8-7) with 16 points, while Bradley Vaughan added 12 and Cameron Conway nine. Sebastian Gonzales led the Cardinals with 21 points.

St. Michael’s takes on Silver, which lost to Portales 45-41 in the evening matchup, in Friday’s contest at 7 p.m. Portales and Robertson face off at 5:30 p.m.

WEST LAS VEGAS 85, REHOBOTH 14 The Dons (12-2) scored 29 points in each of the first quarter quarters to take a 58-7 lead and kept pouring it on in the opening-round matchup of the Albuquerque Hope Christian Huskies Invitational.

Five players reached double figures for West Las Vegas, led by D.J. Bustos’ 20 points. Miguel Sena added 14, Tino Castellano 13, J. J. Montaño 12 and Andres Gallegos 10.

TIERRA ENCANTADA 65, ACADEMY FOR TECHNOLOGY AND THE CLASSICS 56 Once again, the diamond made a rough cut, this time on the Phoenix in the third quarter.

Trailing 24-23 at the half, the Alacranes (9-6) when back to their 1-3-1 trapping press and outscored ATC 22-14 in the third for a 45-37 lead.

“We put pressure on them, and that was

the difference in the game,” said Mark Archuleta, Tierra Encantada head coach.

“We set the tone in the second half. They are coming around, and their poise and patience is amazing.”

Cesar Ferrer led the Alacranes with 19 points, while Andres Flores had 14, Xavier Benavidez added 13 and John Garcia 11.

Ross Gyolloly-Papp led the Phoenix with 28 points.

GIRLS SANTA FE PREP 53, CORONADO 49 While the Lady Leopards did their damage from the perimeter, the Blue Griffins pounded the paint.

They did just enough to eke out a firstround win in the Cuba Invitational to face the host school in a semifinal at 6 p.m. on Friday. Prep (7-5) trailed 25-21 at the half, but used a 16-9 scoring run in the third quarter to take a 37-34 lead.

The margin grew to nine in the fourth quarter, but Coronado kept coming back, thanks to seven 3-pointers it hit on the night.

“They were definitely taking advantage of us out there because it was more trouble for them to go inside the paint,” Prep head coach Anika Amon said. “But we’re pretty tall inside, and they had trouble with that.”

Alexis Mundt had a team-high 20 points for the Blue Griffins, while Joy Maran added 19. Sol Vigl had 20 points to lead Coronado.

ST. MICHAEL’S 56, CAPITAL 23 Even as the Lady Horsemen hit the softer part of their schedule — the Santa Fe High game aside — they are trying to find ways to get something out of this stretch of games.

Against the Lady Jaguars in Edward A. Ortiz Memorial Gymnasium, St. Michael’s worked on a variety of presses and zones that it might need come District 5AAA play.

Still, the Lady Horsemen (14-2) needed a 17-2 run in the second quarter to establish a 27-10 lead.

“We weren’t entirely pleased with our defensive effort, and I told them that at the end of the first quarter,” St. Michael’s head coach Martin Romero said. “We made an effort to be better with ball pressure and pinching down and help-side defense.”

Alex Groenewold had 21 points to lead St. Michael’s, while Jocelyn Fernandez added 15 and Latysha Archuleta 13. Capital (1-17) had Miquela Vigil lead the way with six.

SANTA FE INDIAN SCHOOL 48, POJOAQUE VALLEY 37 The Elkettes played with a sense of desperation their head coach, Chris Williams, liked. It’s just that it took them falling behind by a 42-27 count after three quarters for that quality to show up on the court in the Pueblo Pavilion in a nondistrict game.

“I told the team that Desperation Pojoaque is a hell of a team,” Williams said.

“But we have to play like we’re in desperation the whole game. We start forcing turnovers and turning them into points.”

The Lady Braves (9-5) picked apart Pojoaque’s zone in the second quarter and that turned a 14-11 lead after a quarter into a 26-17 edge at the break. RanDee Toya scored 12 points in the post, while Kayla Joe and Milan Schimmel each had eight.

Justice Ainsworth led Pojoaque (6-9) with 10 points.

LOS ALAMOS 45, ALBUQUERQUE ACADEMY 21 It took a while, but the Lady Hilltoppers are learning to play without post Jordan Duran, who has been out for the past week with a concussion.

They held the Lady Chargers to just three first-quarter points and built a 28-9 lead at the half as Los Alamos’ tenacious defense returned.

“That’s our staple,” said Nestor Trujillo, Lady Hilltoppers head coach. “That physicality on the defensive end is where we impose our will on them. When you’re without a starter, there is that adjustment period.”

Amber Logan had 17 points to lead the Lady Hilltoppers (14-2), while Ashlynn Trujillo added 14.

WEST LAS VEGAS 55, HOT SPRINGS 20 The Lady Dons (10-4) were not as impressive as the boys in their first-round game, but they held the Lady Tigers to just 12 points in the first half to take a 31-12 lead.

Deanna Bustos had nine of her teamhigh 13 points in the first half for West Las Vegas, while Jaylyn Quintana added nine.

PREP SCHEDULE

Demons: Capital lacks energy, passion Continued from Page B-1 score 30 or 40 [a game], so we couldn’t let Coca get 25. If he did that, then he could keep them in the game.”

Coca may have been taken out of the game, but the rest of the Jaguars (9-8) took themselves out too. Capital only managed 21 points in the first three quarters, and no player finished in double figures. To make matters worse, senior forward Augie Larranaga was at home with an illness.

“We just didn’t come ready to play,” Capital head coach Ben Gomez said. “I can’t

explain it simpler than that. We didn’t match their enthusiasm.

We didn’t match their energy or their passion. It just didn’t work today.”

The Jaguars have one more nondistrict game against Grants on Saturday before traveling to Los Alamos on Jan. 20 for their 2AAAAA opener. Despite the slow performance on Thursday, Gomez said the team is in good shape to open the district.

“We just have to keep working on what we do, execute and be ready to play,” he said.

But Santa Fe High’s nondistrict season is over, and how

the Demons fare in the coming weeks will determine their postseason fate. They have been preparing for the challenge since last year, and Rodriguez still knows that some of these games are going to be brutal.

“I think we’re as ready as we can be,” Rodriguez said.

“We’re not bemoaning the fact that we’re in six-A. We’re in six-A, and we’re ready for the challenge. There’s going to be nights when we get dunked on or where they hit 10 3s — but no matter what happens, I know our kids are going to stick together and give it a hell

of a shot to make that six-A tournament.”

The Demons have had a decent season so far, but decent isn’t going to cut it in the new district. In order for Santa Fe High to succeed in the real test, an “A” effort is the only things that’s going to cut it.

“We’re going to have to play our best basketball of the year to give ourselves a chance to be in every district game,” Rodriguez said. “We’re going to have to be stronger than we’ve ever been, stronger than we’ve ever been, tougher than we’ve ever been and more disciplined. I think the kids are ready to do that.”

Kaminsky helps No. 7 Wisconsin beat Nebraska The Associated Press

MADISON, Wis. — Frank Kaminsky scored 22 points in his return from a concussion that sidelined him a game to help No. 7 Wisconsin beat 7 Wisconsin 70 Nebraska 70-55 on Thursday night.

Nebraska 55 Kaminsky was 4 of 5 from 3-point range and 7 of 11 overall after missing the Badgers’ loss at Rutgers on Sunday night. In the first half, Kaminsky blocked Leslee Smith from behind on a drive to the basket, gathered the loose ball, sprinted the length of the court and floated an alley-oop to Sam Dekker.

It was the first full game for the Badgers without starting point guard Traevon Jackson, who injured his ankle Sunday. Bronson Koenig filled in well with 11 points for the Badgers (16-2, 4-1 Big Ten). Nigel Hayes

scored 13 points, and Dekker added 11.

Terran Petteway led Nebraska (10-7, 2-3) with 27 points. He had 20 in the first half.

NO. 8 UTAH 76, ARIZONA STATE 59 In Tempe, Ariz., Delon Wright scored 21 points, and Utah routed Arizona State.

Jordan Loveridge added 14 points and Brandon Taylor had 13 for the Utes (14-2, 4-0 Pac-12). They have won seventh straight heading into Saturday’s showdown at No. 10 Arizona.

After routing Southern California by 24 points, UCLA by 32 and Colorado by 25, Utah showed no signs of letting up in its first conference road game. The Utes are lone unbeaten team in the conference.

Emmert: Conferences gather Saturday Continued from Page B-1 his colleagues developed and designed is intended to allow the continued co-existence of all of the sports together.”

On Saturday, the Big Five conferences will consider eight proposals, mostly related to increasing the value of an athletic scholarship by several thousand dollars to cover the full cost of attendance. Also on the agenda is a proposal

that would prohibit athletic scholarships from being pulled or reduced because of athletic reasons and a concussion safety protocol proposal.

The legislation would be permissive, not mandatory, for the rest of Division I. Leaders from the other five other conferences that play FBS football, as well as some conferences that do not, such as the Big East and Atlantic 10, have said they plan to follow the Big Five’s lead on

cost of attendance.

Leaders of those Big Five conferences have been pushing for years to make rules that would allow them to spend more of the billions they make on media rights deals on student-athlete welfare.

In the past, schools in some of the other 27 Division I conferences blocked attempts to pass legislation they feared they couldn’t afford and would give the most powerful confer-

ences unfair recruiting advantages.

Emmert and those who have supported autonomy say giving those conferences more freedom to direct more resources in the direction of athletes can help alleviate some of the pressure being put on the NCAA from courts, congress and other groups demanding more compensation for college athletes, especially those in the highest-profile sports.

u The Genoveva Chavez Community Center will be holding a junior league for youth ages 7-16. The format is a eight-game schedule with a single-elimination tournament. Registration fee is $50 per player, and registration can be done at the front desk before Feb. 7.

Harden, Rockets beat Thunder The Associated Press

HOUSTON — James Harden scored 15 of his 31 points in the Houston Rockets’ big first quarter in a 112-101 victory over the Oklahoma City Rockets 112 Thunder on Thursday night.

Thunder 101 The Rockets led 40-18 after one and didn’t trail again to bounce back after a loss to Orlando on Wednesday night that snapped a fourgame winning streak.

Harden came just short of a tripledouble with 10 assists and nine rebounds.

Trevor Ariza added 17 points and four steals for Houston.

The Thunder scored the first three points of the fourth quarter to cut it to 10, but Houston used a 12-0 run to make it 100-78 and cruise to the victory — the 200th of coach Kevin McHale’s career.

It was the 17th 30-point game this season for Harden, who leads the NBA in scoring.

Kevin Durant had 24 points and 10 rebounds for the Thunder. They have lost three of their last four games.

A 6-0 run by Oklahoma City got the team within 11 with about four minutes left, but Houston scored six quick points after that to make it 108-91.

Harden made his fifth 3-pointer with

about 4 minutes left in the third quarter before back-to-back 3s by Serge Ibaka got the Thunder to 82-71.

Josh Smith got going after that, outscoring Oklahoma City 6-4 in the next 2 minutes.

Houston was up 88-75 entering the fourth quarter.

Russell Westbrook drew loud boos from the home crowd when he swiped a pass intended for Beverley and finished on the other end with a two-handed dunk to cap a 7-3 run that cut it to 75-63 midway through the third quarter.

A 3-pointer by Patrick Beverley pushed Houston’s lead to 47-26 with about 9 minutes left in the first half. The Thunder rolled for a bit after that, using a 10-3 spurt, punctuated with a dunk by Durant to cut it to 50-36. That run was helped by a pair of turnovers by Harden.

Westbrook had turnovers on back to back plays with about 5 minutes left in the second quarter with the first one resulting in a one-handed dunk by Harden to leave the Rockets up 54-39.

Durant had 15 points in the second quarter to cut Houston’s lead to 64-53 at halftime.

The Rockets made three 3-pointers, with two from Harden, in the game’s first 3½ minutes to jump out to a 12-4 lead.

NFL

Belichick has new tricks up his sleeve

By Rob Maaddi The Associated Press

When Bill Belichick pulled something new from his bag of tricks last week, some wondered if the three-time Super Bowl champion coach had found another way to bend the rules.

The New England Patriots were creative and intentionally deceptive, but using four offensive linemen isn’t illegal.

The tactic worked and angered the Ravens and coach John Harbaugh. There’s no telling what wrinkles Belichick and the Patriots (13-4) are planning for Sunday’s AFC championship game against Indianapolis (13-5).

“It’s a situation that I saw another team use, kind of,” Belichick said, explaining the unique formation. “Then we talked about it and thought about ways maybe to put some pressure on the defense with that concept of having more receivers on the field than were actually eligible. To make them ineligible instead of making an ineligible guy eligible, to go the other way around. We came up with a few ideas.”

Got that?

OK, here’s a simple summary of what the Patriots did for three plays against Baltimore: u Right guard Josh Kline came off the field. u Backup tight end Michael Hoomanawanui entered and lined up where the left tackle traditionally plays but declared himself eligible. u Left tackle Nate Solder moved inside to left guard. u Running back Shane Vereen entered and lined up in the slot, but was technically the right tackle and therefore ineligible.

That created confusion because the defense covered Vereen, thinking he was going to run a pattern. Hoomanawanui was allowed to run freely down the seam.

Hoomanawanui caught two passes for 16 yards Bill Belichick and 14 yards Harbaugh drew an unsportsmanlike penalty for going on the field to argue that his defense should’ve had more time to identify eligible receivers before the snap.

After the penalty, Tom Brady tossed a touchdown pass to Rob Gronkowski to cut the Ravens’ lead to 28-21.

“Nobody’s ever seen that before,” Harbaugh said. “It’s not something anybody’s ever done before.”

Belichick said he expanded on another NFL’s coach’s idea, but didn’t say who it was. Philadelphia’s Chip Kelly is known for his innovative strategies and he introduced a few of these formations right away in his first game in 2013.

Kelly has used a three-man line with tackles Jason Peters and Lane Johnson both split wide to opposite sides. He’s used a formation where both tackles are on the same side. And, he’s had Johnson line up in the slot.

Kelly and Belichick are good friends and the Eagles and Patriots have practiced against each other the week leading up to their preseason games each of the last two seasons. Maybe they shared secrets.

Oregon, Kelly’s former team, uses strange formations often, especially on extra-point attempts.

The Detroit Lions ran a similar play in Week 6 where they lined up six offensive linemen with one of them split wide. It

didn’t work and Matthew Stafford was sacked on the play.

Perhaps Belichick and offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels watched the Alabama-LSU game on Nov. 8. The Crimson Tide ran the same formation on the first play of overtime and 304-pound offensive lineman Brandon Greene caught a 24-yard pass at the 1. Greene lined up in the same spot the Patriots put Hoomanawanui.

“Hardly ever see only four offensive linemen in the game,” former NFL quarterback Brady Quinn told the AP this week. “And to put an ineligible player who wears an eligible number out at a wide receiver position is unique. On top of that, the play was well-designed where Vereen stepped back and acted like he was running a screen. Nothing illegal about it.”

Earlier last week, Hall of Fame coach Don Shula referred to Belichick as “Belicheat” in an interview.

That’s a label Belichick has heard since the coach was fined $500,000 and the Patriots were fined $250,000 and stripped of their 2008 first-round draft choice by the NFL for videotaping New York Jets signals during a 2007 game.

But trick plays aren’t cheating or even unusual. The Patriots tied the score later in the game on wide receiver Julian Edelman’s 51-yard TD pass to Danny Amendola.

Belichick doesn’t expect anything to prevent the Patriots from using their new formation against the Colts.

“I’d venture to say I couldn’t remember the last time that I haven’t seen an eligible receiver report as an ineligible player in the NFL,” Belichick said. “I would say it happens in every game on the punt team.

You’re allowed to do that. We did it.”

Rewind the play on their DVRs. Instantly look up analysis and images on social media.

Rehash the decision on 24/7 sports television.

“Officiating is better than it’s ever been,” Mike Pereira insists. “But people don’t think that.”

Pereira used to be in charge of ensuring the NFL got calls right. These days, he lets millions of fans know if a call is wrong.

After retiring as the league’s officiating chief in 2010, Pereira joined Fox in a newly created role as a rules analyst.

The concept proved so popular that other networks hired their own.

“He’s become such a part of the fabric of watching the game,” says John Entz, Fox’s executive producer for NFL coverage.

Lead announcer Joe Buck used to espouse a “less is more” philosophy in analyzing questionable calls, not wanting to be burned by his lack of expertise. Then the network added what Buck calls the “the

greatest gift we’ve been given:” the ability to bring in Pereira to offer an instant, definitive assessment.

Fox has leaned on him heavily on critical rulings the last two Sundays.

Pereira asserted that pass interference should have been called against the Cowboys in their wild-card win over the Lions. A week later, he correctly predicted that a Dallas catch would be overturned at Green Bay. Buck is no Luddite when it comes to instant replay. Yet he acknowledges he went to sleep two straight Sunday nights feeling a bit conflicted about the thrilling games he had just called: The disputed officiating decisions had overshadowed everything else.

“The innocence of that is gone,” he says.

While working the baseball playoffs last fall, Buck happened to catch an old YankeesDodgers World Series on MLB Network. There was a close play at first base, and Buck realized he was conditioned to expect nine replays. Instead, the announcers briefly noted it was tough to tell if the runner was safe or out, then moved on.

Major League Baseball instituted video reviews for many

on-field calls last season after Commissioner Bud Selig long argued human error was part of the game. The NBA has gradually expanded the scope of replay since adopting it in 2002. The NHL started reviewing goals in 1991, with ongoing discussions about widening the use of video.

The NFL first tried instant replay from 1986-91 and introduced the current system in 1999.

Those advances allow officials to get more and more calls right. They also may make fans, players and coaches less and less tolerant when mistakes are made.

“There’s more pressure than ever to get it right,” Entz says.

But some calls will always be wrong, no matter how much replay is expanded in the future.

Of the more than 40,000 plays that took place in the 2014 regular season, NFL spokesman Michael Signora says, officials were graded as correct nearly 96 percent of the time and averaged fewer than one incorrect call per game.

NBA referees are correct at a similar rate when they blow their whistles, says Rod Thorn, the league’s president of basketball operations. But

when the accuracy of the calls they don’t make is factored in, the percentage dips. That’s one of many pieces of data the NBA is now tracking, to try to keep up with the ever-moredemanding expectations of fans who get to dissect slowmotion, HD replays.

“The standard has been raised because everybody sees these things now,” says Thorn, who has been involved with the league in some fashion since 1963.

Watch video of old NFL games, Pereira says, and it’s conspicuous “how many mistakes were made.” Pereira wonders if the surging popularity of the sport, not to mention the rise of gambling and fantasy football, leaves fans more invested — and accordingly more infuriated at missed calls.

Renfro agrees. He refuses to lament that instant replay wasn’t available back in January 1980. In fact, he was ambivalent about the NFL instituting it, describing himself as “old school.”

But as the game — and the money involved — got bigger, he came around to the idea. And he figures the most memorable play of his 10-year career probably had something to do with the policy.

couple of minutes to power an 11-2 run that extended the lead to 23-6.

The Rockets were up by 15 later in the quarter scoring nine straight points, with the first six from Harden to make it 40-16.

They made 6 of 10 3-pointers in the period with three from Harden to score their most points in a quarter this season.

BUCKS 95, KNICKS 79 In London, O.J. Mayo scored 22 points, Brandon Knight had 20 points and six steals, and the Milwaukee Bucks routed New York 95-79 on Thursday night, extending the Knicks’ franchise-record losing streak to 16.

With the Knicks showing why they have lost 26 of 27 games and are an NBA-worst 5-36, the contest was a poor advertisement for the NBA in its annual London game that showcases its brand overseas.

The Knicks missed their first 10 shots — three in a 6-second span — and gave up 14 offensive rebounds, 10 in the first half.

The Bucks took a 12-0 lead, were up by 24 in the second quarter and never let New York closer than 11 the rest of the way.

The return of Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire did little to spark New York.

Anthony led the Knicks with 25 points.

Stoudemire was scoreless in 8 first-half minutes and didn’t play after the break.

Anthony missed the previous six games because of a knee problem, and Stoudemire had been sidelined since Dec. 25, also with a knee injury.

Yosemite climb included coffee, chocolate, whiskey

By Kristin J. Bender and Scott Smith The Associated Press

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK, Calif. — Day after day, the two Americans who completed what had been considered the world’s most difficult rock climb bloodied their fingertips, endured bruising falls and balanced their bodies on handholds as small as coins.

But while living for more than two weeks on a sheer granite wall, they still enjoyed a few comforts sent up from the Yosemite Valley below: coffee, Indian food, chocolate and an occasional nip of whiskey.

Now they hope the feat inspires others to follow their own passions.

Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson became the first to free-climb the Dawn Wall on the famous El Capitan rock formation in Yosemite National Park. Unlike climbers who need more elaborate equipment, the pair relied entirely on their hands and feet and physical strength, using ropes and harnesses only for safety in case of a fall.

Speaking Thursday to reporters, both men said they had been touched by the number of people who drew inspiration from their journey up a half-mile of pale, smooth stone.

Jorgeson said the climb should illustrate the value of teamwork and teach people not to give up on their dreams.

In an interview with The Associated Press, he said the experience “recalibrates your perception of what you can do and what’s possible. Now that we’ve done this, who knows what comes. I have a whole new bar for what’s possible and what I’m capable of personally.”

The trek began Dec. 27.

In the 19 days that followed, the two lived on the wall itself, eating and sleeping in tents fastened to the rock thousands of feet above the ground and battling painful cuts to their fingers.

They also took punishment whenever their grip slipped, pitching them into swinging falls that bounced them off the rock face. The tumbles, which they called “taking a whipper,” ended with startling jolts from their safety ropes.

Caldwell described how support climbers provided them with fresh fruit and vegetables every five days. They also had Indian food, burritos and other “pretty normal stuff,” including coffee. For

treats, the two enjoyed chocolate and Woodford Reserve whiskey.

“We like to say you can’t put a price on morale,” Caldwell told the AP, speaking in a whisper because he had lost his voice from shouting so much during the climb.

There wasn’t much downtime, Caldwell said, but in spare moments he read from the autobiography of legendary climber Barry Blanchard.

Asked why the achievement resonated with so many people, Jorgeson said the Dawn Wall “personifies dreaming big and making it happen. It’s just a super-concrete example and an iconic, beautiful place with amazing images and a great story of perseverance and teamwork and making it.”

Caldwell, 36, of Estes Park, Colo., and Jorgeson, 30, of Santa Rosa, Calif., trained for years to get ready.

Ken Yager, president of the Yosemite Climbing Association, noted past milestones on El Capitan, starting with the first people to make the climb in 1958, followed decades later by the first one-day ascent and the duo who set a speed record in 2012 at 2 hours, 23 minutes. The latest accomplishment adds to that history, Yager said.

Caldwell and Jorgeson “proved that there’s still a golden age in Yosemite’s climbing,” Yager said.

Jorgeson said Caldwell first envisioned the climb in 2007. After seeing a short film about Caldwell’s ambition to free climb the Dawn Wall, Jorgeson called to ask if he needed a partner.

They started their plans in 2009.

“I never thought rock climbing could garner so much attention from the world,” Jorgeson told reporters. “It’s kind of crazy and a little uncomfortable.”

Mike Gauthier, chief of staff for Yosemite National Park, said the climb celebrated human achievement.

“Adventure can still be found on public lands and in the national parks today in 2015,” he said. “Tommy and Kevin, thank you for showing us that.”

There are about 100 routes up the rock known among climbers as “El Cap.” Even the Dawn Wall had been scaled. Warren Harding and Dean Caldwell (no relation to Tommy) made it up in 1970, using climbing ropes and countless rivets over 27 days.

No one, however, had ever made it to the summit in one continuous free-climb — until now.

nimated hands conduct conversations as you wander through the extensive halls of the New Mexico School for the Deaf. The halls are lined with televisions and digital clocks displaying the time of day and class period, and the art on the walls includes signs. Everything is visual. Deaf and hearingimpaired students ranging from preschool to high school come from all over New Mexico to receive an education, and everyone on campus communicates through American Sign Language.

It is 11:30 a.m. on a Friday at the School for the Deaf — which opened in 1885 — and seven students sit in a classroom, lights dimmed, watching a video displayed on the screen featuring daily announcements. The screen displays the faces of the technical department staff, energetic and vivid in emotion, with spirited hands signing everything from what is for lunch to the weather forecast.

Later, a group of four seniors — Amberley Luna, Augusta Skoog, Joseph Hicks and Victoria Ortiz — place a phone call to an administrator through a television equipped with a camera. The interaction is not unlike a Skype call, and it allows students to communicate with one another and with other deaf students around the country.

‘Being A here, it’s like a family’

BY TOMMY MILLER AND TILCARA WEBB GENERATION NEXT

Every deaf child in the state is eligible to attend the New Mexico School for the Deaf. This public school provides residence and transportation free of cost to students who live out of town.

More than 130 students ranging in age from 18 months old to 21 years old attend the school, located on Cerrillos Road near St. Francis Drive.

Students learn academic and workforce skills akin to those in other schools, while executing everything in both English and American Sign Language. Outside regular school hours, students participate in sports and other activities, including school plays and the National Academic Bowl, an interdisciplinary competition.

The school houses eight cottages where students live. Students have access to a recreational activity room, a football field, gyms, a workout center and community rooms in the cottages. Seniors who demonstrate independence have the option to live in their own spaces.

The school boasts a variety of classes, from a woodshop class to filmmaking to aquaponics to speech. The Job Preparation Program puts students directly into the workforce with jobs relevant to their aspirations and futures.

It is a world that many are only vaguely aware of, but as school Superintendent Ronald Stern said in an email, “Our students are true members of their community. They have full access to all curricular and extracurricular activities at school. Our students are not looked at through their ears (e.g. being seen as deaf or hard of hearing above all else) but as full-fledged human beings with exciting whole person potential.

Lived realities of deaf and hard of hearing people are accounted for in all phases at the school.”

For Ortiz, life before the deaf school was very challenging, with limited access to education

Rhiannon Reynolds “Jacoby Shandix. He makes music about his life and what he sees. His music inspires me because it shows that I am not alone.”

Majesti De La Pena “My friend, Victoria, because she supports me by telling me the struggles she’s had at school, and that helps me do better.”

Alex McCullough “My stepdad inspires me and is a very good role model. He’s very strict with me about respecting people.”

and exposure to two different languages. “I had been really isolated as a person,” she said. “I was the only deaf person in this community. … As my hearing waned and I went to school as the only deaf person, I didn’t really have tools for communication. … I would really have to rely on lip-reading skills to understand them and it would give me a headache.” However, by attending NMSD, her experience with deaf culture has totally changed. She calls it “a feast for the eyes.”

She has transformed from an isolated individual to a very social, friendly person, she said. “Being here, it’s like a family.”

But another student, Skoog, said she finds it a challenge to “communicate fluently here” as it is “different from the hearing world.”

The students understand that the school celebrates their culture. “Deaf culture is warm. It’s friendly. It feels like a family,” Luna said. Luna shared the sign for “Deaf Culture”: “One hand is covering the ear, and then the other hand is out.

The hand is supposed to be a symbol of power and the covering of the ear means we can’t hear and we’re proud of it. So what? We’re proud of it.”

The students have many opportunities to interact with people off the school campus.

Whether it’s at a school game or an event that is independent of school, Hicks said, “There’s all kinds of opportunities to have fun with hearing peers.”

The seniors express enthusiasm in helping others understand and learn about them and their school. “Don’t be afraid to communicate with us,” Skoog said. “Give it a try.”

Luna said, “I promise you that when hearing people come, or when we just happen to bump into one of you guys out there, when you see us signing, it never hurts to ask, ‘What does that mean?’ We’ll be happy to answer you.”

The school is located at 1060 Cerrillos Road.

Its website is www.nmsd.k12.nm.us.

Jonathan Garcia “The person who inspires me is LeBron James because he is a very good basketball player — just like I want to be.”

Janell Miller “Melanie, my student life educator in my cottage, inspires me. She’s helped me learn many things and to be a better person.”

Kendrick Skeets “My friend, Jonathan, inspires me because he always makes me happy.

We always joke around and talk about the NBA.”

JoJo Montano “UFC champion Matt Hamill because we both have a hearing loss. He inspires me to be an MMA wrestler.”

School for the Deaf museum packed with history

By Raina Wellman Generation Next

The Kenneth E. Brasel Centennial Museum is a small but packed museum adjacent to the library at the New Mexico School for the Deaf on Cerrillos Road. After walking through the glass door entrance, a portrait of the school’s first superintendent, Lars Larson, greets the visitor. In 1885, Larson came to New Mexico and founded the “Territorial Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb,” as the school was then known. Larson began his school with six students. In the log of the first students to enter the original NMSD — which is among the museum’s exhibits — it documents the hometowns of students, including some locations that no longer exist. Many students were born deaf, but some came due to illnesses like scarlet fever and smallpox.

The school states that the museum “is dedicated to the history in honor of our hearing impaired students of yesterday, today, and tomorrow … so that they may know and be proud of their history.” The museum is a celebration of deaf students’ story and the long way that deaf education and equality for the deaf has come. Larson is quoted as saying, “It cannot be denied that the deaf and the blind have the right to receive education just as their other brethren do.”

The museum showcases the changes within the school and in society as the school continued under each superintendent’s leadership from the founder to the current and eighth superintendent, Ronald J. Stern (Stern is retiring at the end of this school year). Similar to a trade school, the school for the deaf originally worked to prepare students for occupations.

dents at work making doughnuts, cutting hair and sewing clothing.

I was fascinated by the museum’s collection of historical hearing aids, from several pairs of fashionable glasses with attached hearing aids to

cumbersome boxes. The museum is filled with artifacts like old medical care equipment, printing presses and student publications. Throughout the museum, historical newspaper articles, documents and statements reveal

what is now considered politically incorrect language. I found it interesting to see the way that language has changed to create more tolerance and understanding. The original words, “deaf and dumb,” are now replaced by deaf and hearing impaired.

Though the museum is small, it houses 130 years’ worth of educational and societal development. I only wonder how the museum will continue to expand this collection and how we will eventually look back on this era of education.

The school is working to make the museum — named after the school’s fifth superintendent, Kenneth Brasel — more accessible to the public, and it is open to the community. Contact the New Mexico School for the Deaf at 476-6300 for more information.

LOS ANGELES he Oscar nominations added intrigue if not diversity to an Academy Awards race by favoring one late-season release (American Sniper) over another (Selma).

The flip-flopping of fortunes, however, did little to dislodge the humble comingof-age epic Boyhood, which has steadily grown into the movie to beat in a little-seen Oscar field, closely followed

by Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu’s backstage ego trip Birdman.

The two films solidified themselves as favorites with best-picture and best-director nominations. Boyhood chalked up its expected six nominations, including supporting nods for Patricia Arquette and Ethan Hawke. And Birdman, (or the Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) landed a co-leading nine nominations, including best actor for Michael Keaton.

But the Oscar race — the near-culmination Hollywood’s ever-expanding industrial complex called awards season — may have gotten more competitive in Thursday’s nominations.

Clint Eastwood’s American Sniper (six nods) Wes Anderson’s The Grand Budapest Hotel (nine nominations) and The Imitation Game (eight nominations) all emerged as heftier contenders, while Selma largely fizzled.

Each joined a best-picture field that also included the Stephen Hawking biopic The Theory of Everything and the music school psychodrama Whiplash.

The modestly sized movies — all dwarfed by Hollywood’s stampede of bigger blockbusters at the box office — make for a classy but not particularly high-wattage batch of nominees. That may challenge host Neil Patrick Harris to drive viewers to the Feb. 22 ceremony.

The nominees also amount to a distinctly white Oscars.

All 20 of the nominated actors are white, which led to the trending Twitter hashtag “OscarsSoWhite” on Thursday.

Though Ava DuVernay’s civil rights drama Selma was once seen as a major contender, it landed just two nominations. (The second was for best song.) David Oyelowo, who stars as Martin Luther King Jr. in Selma, was surprisingly left out of best actor.

The poor showing of Selma (and on King’s birthday no less) came after nagging criticism over its portrayal of President Lyndon Johnson.

The Rev. Al Sharpton said the lack of votes for the drama about the voting rights movement was ironic and called the diversity of the nominations overall “appalling.”

It’s a nightmare scenario for the Academy of Motion Pictures, which has in recent years sought to diversify its ranks. It also comes a year after the best-picture win for 12 Years a Slave, during which there was much chest-thumping about Hollywood’s thawing close-mindedness.

Whereas the late December arrival of Selma appeared to hurt its chances, similar timing was on target for Clint Eastwood’s Navy SEAL drama American Sniper. Bradley Cooper, who plays lethal marksman Chris Kyle in the film,

seemed to take Oyelowo’s best-actor spot.

Wes Anderson’s old Europe caper The Grand Budapest Hotel, which also won best comedy or musical at the Globes, has emerged as the most unexpected awards heavyweight. It managed nine nominations without a single acting nod and was instead repeatedly cited for Anderson’s meticulous craft in directing, production design, makeup and screenplay.

The Grand Budapest Hotel (opening all the way back in March) is also the most lucrative best-picture entry, with $59.1 million at the North American box office. (That, though, will soon change after American Sniper expands nationwide this weekend.)

Box-office hits were scarce.

Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar reeled in five nominations in technical categories. David Fincher’s popular and wellreviewed Gone Girl managed only a best-actress nomination for Rosamund Pike.

Marion Cotillard (the French-language (Two Days, One Night) was the surprise nominee for best actress.

She and Pike were joined by Felicity Jones (The Theory of Everything), Julianne Moore (Still Alice) and Reese Witherspoon (Wild). Those picks left Jennifer Aniston’s pained and grieving performance in Cake on the outside.

The eight nominations for the World War II code-breaker thriller The Imitation Game, about pioneering computer scientist Alan Turing, included best actor for Benedict Cumberbatch and supporting actress for Keira Knightley.

Steve Carell (Foxcatcher) and Eddie Redmayne (The Theory of Everything) rounded out the best actor category.

Foxcatcher helmer Bennett Miller (previously nominated for Capote) squeaked into best director, which also included Morten Tyldum (The Imitation Game). DuVernay and Unbroken director Angelina Jolie failed to crack the historically male category. Jolie’s World War II survival tale landed three nods, including a 12th nomination for cinematographer Roger Deakins.

One of the most notable snubs came in best animation, usually a staid category.

Despite critical love and major box office appeal, The Lego Movie was left out. Instead, Oscar nods went to Big Hero 6, The Boxtrolls, How to Train Your Dragon 2, Song of the Sea and The Tale of the Princess Kaguya. Lego co-director Phil Lord tweeted a photo of a Lego-built Oscar, writing: “It’s okay. Made my own!”

Other nominees came with the reliability of clockwork.

Meryl Streep landed her 19th nomination (a record) for her supporting performance in Into the Woods. Joining her were Emma Stone (Birdman) and Laura Dern (Wild).

Aside from Hawke, supporting-actor nominations went to Robert Duvall (The Judge), Edward Norton (Birdman), Mark Ruffalo (Foxcatcher) and J.K. Simmons (Whiplash).

The nominees for best foreign language film went to Ida (Poland), Leviathan (Russia), Tangerines (Estonia), Timbuktu (Mauritania) and Wild Tales (Argentina). The acclaimed black-and-white Ida also surprised with a nod for cinematography.

Best documentary nods went to CitizenFour, Finding Vivian Maier, Last Days in Vietnam, The Salt of the Earth and Virunga. Left out was the Roger Ebert documentary Life Itself.

TRAVEL TRAVEL Q&A

By Scott Mayerowitz The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Americans are one step closer to being able to vacation in Cuba, but don’t pack your bathing suit and sunscreen just yet.

A new set of government regulations takes effect Friday, severely loosening travel and trade restrictions that have been in place for 54 years. The rules follow President Barack Obama’s announcement last month of a re-establishment of diplomatic relations with the communist island. Only Congress can fully remove the embargo but it is up to the administration to enforce — or turn a blind eye — to the travel ban.

Travel and hospitality companies are salivating at the chance to set up shop in Cuba. Delta Air Lines, JetBlue Airways, Hilton Worldwide, Marriott International and the Carnival Corp. have all expressed interest.

Americans have long been drawn to Cuba for its proximity, its warm climate and the taboo nature of visiting a country offlimits to U.S. citizens since the 1960s. Here’s a look at what the latest government rules mean for them.

Question: Can U.S. citizens visit Cuba?

Answer: The U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control oversees travel to Cuba.

There are 12 categories of people who are allowed to visit.

They include: close relatives of Cubans, academics, those traveling on official government business, those on humanitarian or religious missions, journalists and people on accredited cultural education programs.

Question: What changed?

Answer: The groups of people allowed to visit Cuba remain the same but they no longer need to apply for a license to travel.

Question: What about everybody else?

Answer: That’s fuzzier. It’s still illegal for Americans to visit Cuba if they don’t fit into one of those 12 groups, but without the need to apply for a license, it could be impossible for the government to enforce such a restriction.

Question: How can I buy a ticket?

Answer: Until now, the government has issued licenses to tour operators who then help travelers obtain visas and sell spots on trips to Cuba. Many of them are mom-and-pop travel agencies in Florida, catering to Cuban Americans. Others are large tour companies offering weeklong educational trips for

$3,000 to nearly $8,000 a person. The new regulations allow travel agents and airlines to sell tickets without the need for a specific license from Office of Foreign Assets Control. That means it will be much easier to book a trip and prices should come down significantly.

Question: How do U.S. travelers buy goods in Cuba?

Answer: Banks and credit card companies have been prohibited from doing business in Cuba. That gets lifted in these new rules. But don’t expect to see ATMs or businesses accepting Visa, MasterCard or American Express immediately.

Large hotels are likely to be the first businesses to let travelers swipe to pay, but mom-and-pop restaurants or local shops could take much longer. So travelers — in the near term — still need to bring a lot of cash.

Question: What can Americans bring back?

Answer: Authorized visitors can bring home up to $400 worth of goods acquired in Cuba for personal use. This includes no more than $100 worth of alcohol or tobacco products.

Question: Will there be limits to the number of visitors?

Answer: Without the need for a license, there is no limit.

However, Cuba only has so many hotel rooms and other necessary infrastructure to support tourism. In the short-term, that will curtail the number of visitors.

Question: Who flies from the U.S. to Cuba?

Answer: American Airlines, JetBlue and Sun Country offer charter flights to the Cuban cities of Havana, Holguin, Santa Clara and Cienfuegos. Until now, the only way onto those planes was through one of those travel agencies. That could quickly change. But don’t expect airlines to suddenly flood the market.

Like all other route decisions, airlines need to see if there is a large enough market willing to pay high enough airfares. For instance, a Southwest Airlines spokesman said Thursday, “Cuba is a good future opportunity we are studying.” And Cuba is still a difficult destination to serve. JetBlue brings a mechanic along on each of its charter flights.

Question: Are there other ways for Americans to visit Cuba?

Answer: The Cuban government doesn’t prohibit Americans from visiting. So for years, intrepid travelers have broken the U.S. law by entering Cuba via Mexico or Canada and asking officials not to stamp their passports.

Southwest fined $1.6M for delays

Keith Anderson and Barbara Lenssen visited the Museum of Fundatie in the town of Zwolle, Denmark. The building, originally a 19th-century palace of justice, was reopened as a museum with the new addition seen here.

DALLAS — Southwest Airlines is being fined $1.6 million for not letting passengers get off planes that were stuck on the ground for hours during a freezing winter storm in Chicago.

The storm hit during an increase in employees calling in sick, which the airline has said was widely seen as a protest against stalled contract negotiations.

It is a record fine for an airline violating federal rules against long tarmac delays.

Southwest will pay $600,000.

The airline was given credit for $269,000 it spent to compensate passengers and $431,000 on new equipment, and $300,000 will be waived if Southwest doesn’t break the rules again in the next year.

The Department of Transportation said Thursday the fine covered 16 planes that were stuck on the ground for at least three hours after landing at Chicago’s Midway International Airport. Passengers on two of the planes were stranded for more than four hours.

NEW MEXICO LEGISLATURE

IN SESSION

Tourists ride in a classic American car on the Malecon in Havana, Cuba. A new set of U.S. government regulations takes effect Friday, severely loosening the decades-long travel and trade restrictions for Cuba. ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE PHOTO

First commercial flight for newest airliner DOHA, Qatar — The world’s newest jetliner, the Airbus A350, took to the skies Thursday carrying its first paying passengers from the Gulf Arab nation of Qatar.

The Qatar Airways flight departed the Qatari capital Doha bound for Frankfurt, Germany. It marks the debut of the relatively lightweight, twin-aisle, longrange plane, which promises to connect smaller cities with major aviation hubs nonstop at a cheaper cost for airlines.

For passengers, the new plane offers wider panoramic windows and larger overhead storage space plus the ability to limit connections.

The A350’s lightweight design allows it to burn significantly less fuel than other jets of similar size. A little more than half of the structure is made of composite materials such as plastic reinforced by carbon fibers.

Add in titanium and advanced aluminum alloys, and more than 70 percent of the plane is made up of lightweight materials.

Airbus says the A350 will help open up nonstop routes like Shanghai to Boston or Paris to Santiago, Chile.

The A350 can fly 276 to 369 passengers, depending on the variant and the airline’s choice of seating configuration.

Today in history Today is Friday, Jan. 16, the 16th day of 2015. There are 349 days left in the year.

Today’s highlight in history: On Jan. 16, 1865, Union Maj. Gen. William T. Sherman issued Special Field Order No. 15, which decreed that 400,000 acres of land in South Carolina, Georgia and Florida would be confiscated, divided into 40acre lots and given to former slaves. (The order, which was later revoked by President Andrew Johnson, is believed to have inspired the expression, “Forty acres and a mule.”)

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH A partner could feel challenged by you and shut down. Try to be more understanding of this person’s sensitivity. Tonight: Head out to happy hour!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Others could be challenging, as they seem to want to head their own way.

You will find yourself in a grumpy mood if you don’t let this go. Tonight: Go along with a suggestion.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Remain focused on getting the job done. You’ll be all smiles when you complete your to-do list. Be more nurturing to someone.

Tonight: Check out new information carefully.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Get past some anger involving a partnership or an agreement. This dissatisfaction could surround a past association. Allow your mind to drift. Tonight: Let your inner child out.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Pressure continues to come from a loved one who seems to feel as though he or she knows more about a key matter than you do. Tonight: Head home early.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

An emotional affair takes toll on marriage Dear Annie: Please comment again about emotional affairs. My husband says this is a bunch of malarkey.

He has been hanging out quite a bit at a local establishment, which is owned by a woman who is rather flirtatious. She can get the men who come there to do little favors for her, and this includes my husband. I also know that he has been confiding in her and telling her details about some problems in our personal life that I would like kept quiet in the community. I believe the conversations he is having with her are the ones he should be having with me.

Many times when he comes home after seeing her, he hardly speaks to me for hours because he is all “talked out.” He says that there is nothing going on and that he is true-blue for me. But I am uncomfortable with the amount of time he spends there.

I have asked him to stop going, and he has cut back from seeing her four times a day to just once.

But it is still every day. He reads your column daily, so maybe you can comment again about emotional cheating. In my eyes, it is as bad as sexual cheating. — Angie Dear Angie: Your husband thinks that if there is no sex, there is nothing “going on.” But if he is turning to another woman to find emotional support and complain about his marriage, he is shortchanging you, his life partner, and could begin to care too much about her.

We have said before that giving your emotions, your heart and your innermost thoughts to someone other than your spouse is a form of cheating. It creates a bond with a third party, allowing that person into your marriage.

But the fact that this woman is a flirt doesn’t mean she is interested in your husband, so try not to overreact. Instead, let your husband know that this close friendship is undermining your trust in him.

He needs to keep those conversations less personal. If the two of you are having problems that need working out, please talk to a professional together.

Dear Annie: We have 5-yearold twins. A year ago, there was an argument in the family, and their uncle left town. Our kids were close to their uncle and still remember him. The problem is, our son still asks about this uncle.

We have told him that the uncle moved to another town. What is the best way to explain that his departure may be permanent? We don’t think we will ever see him again. — Missing Him Dear Missing: You don’t know that this rift is permanent, so there is no reason to give that impression to your children. At this age, they simply wonder where their favorite uncle went. Saying he moved to another town is accurate and appropriate. You don’t need to give details. If your son asks when his uncle is coming back, simply tell him you don’t know. Because that is the truth.

If you don’t bring up the subject, your son will eventually forget about him. How sad for all of you.

Dear Annie: This is in response to “Overlooked,” the grandmother who was left out of her grandson’s wedding pictures.

My husband and I have been professional wedding photographers for 25 years. In recent years, there has been a trend to spend all the wedding money on the showier aspects of the event and have either a friend or a discount photographer at the wedding.

Often, this produces disappointing results, such as out-of-focus images and, in this case, missing pictures of important people.

Unfortunately, you can’t get that day back to reshoot.

I don’t believe that the bride and groom intentionally omitted the grandparents. But I do believe they should have hired an experienced professional.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You seem to say the right words and touch a key person in your life. Many times, you stand back and watch what others do. Tonight: Let your hair down, and paint the town red.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You might feel a sudden change in your mood.

Know that you don’t need to explain this sudden optimism. Someone close to you might be very difficult. Tonight: TGIF! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You know that you are fortunate to have a close relationship with someone who gives you extra energy just by being himor herself. Tonight: Mysteriously vanish.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Do not get yourself worked up about a money matter. You might not be sure which way to go with an assertive and/or demanding personality in your life. Tonight: Let it all hang out.
