King blasts governor’s jobs record in TV spot

State environment chief: Report on WIPP leak will likely reveal LANL issues

By Milan Simonich

The New Mexican

New Mexico was one of only two states that lost jobs in the last year, a deficiency that challenger Gary King highlights in his new television advertisement disparaging Gov. Susana Martinez.

Democratic Attorney General King’s ad is a series of criticisms of Republican Martinez, all built around the theme that he will “clean up her mess.” King sees lack of jobs in New Mexico as Martinez’s jugular, and he uses a portion of the 30-second commercial to try to expose it.

A female narrator of King’s ad describes New Mexico’s job losses.

This part of the commercial is correct and uncontested, even by Martinez. Her own state Department of Workforce Solutions last month reported a net loss of 4,400 jobs for the 12 months ending in April 2014.

New Mexico’s job losses received heavy news coverage when those figures became public. Bruce Krasnow of The New Mexican summed up the report, writing that New Mexico was “just one of two states to lose jobs while the rest of the United States was growing.” Virginia also had a net loss of jobs.

King’s ad does not begin with the economy, even though it may be his strongest issue. Instead, his ad shows an unflattering photo of Martinez.

Then the narrator announces that Martinez has attacked King in her ads as an attempt to cover up her record.

In addition to job losses, King’s ad criticizes Martinez for mismanagement. The ad describes New Mexico as the “second-worst-run state,” based on rankings by 24/7 Wall St., a website of financial news and opinion.

Judge: Shooter wasn’t truly remorseful

By Phaedra Haywood The New Mexican

T

he sounds of mothers and sisters sobbing filled the courtroom Tuesday morning as a Santa Fe teenager was sentenced to more than 27 years in prison for fatally shooting two other young men at a party on Christmas Day 2012.

Joe C. Rivera had just turned 18 when he shot Johnny Griego, 23, and Nicholas Baker, 29, at the Griego home south of Santa Fe during a dispute over a $50 bottle of liquor and supposed gang affiliations.

“The moral of this case,” District Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer said before sentencing Rivera, “is that when you leave home with a gun, you are prepared to change lives for the worse, including your own.”

Rivera claimed throughout his trial

that he didn’t come to the party armed.

He continues to maintain that the gun he used to shoot Baker and Griego belonged to someone else.

He claimed the weapon fell on the floor during a scuffle that broke out when Baker and Griego tried to keep him and his younger stepbrother from leaving the party with a gallon of rum that Rivera’s girlfriend had bought from Griego, and that when he picked it up and shot the men in the chest, he was acting in self-defense and in defense of his brother.

Judge Marlowe Sommer said Tuesday that Rivera’s insistence that the gun “magically appeared” that night was a sign that he was not truly remorseful about the killings.

“Remorse takes honesty,” she said.

“What you have is situational remorse.

Federal investigators seeking the cause of a radiation leak at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant near Carlsbad have narrowed their focus to six containers of highly acidic nuclear waste, New Mexico Environment Secretary Ryan Flynn told a panel of lawmakers Tuesday.

One of the drums is the suspected source of a chemical reaction that led to the leak at WIPP, and the other five are stored at Waste Control Specialists in Texas along the New Mexico border, according to the state Environment Department.

During a two-and-a-half-hour briefing of the joint Legislative Radioactive and Hazardous Materials Committee, Flynn also said the investigation has illuminated deficiencies in Los Alamos National Laboratory’s processes.

Flynn questioned whether the lab sufficiently vetted contractors’ proposed changes in substances added to

The deaths were a fresh reminder that the conflict is nowhere near over for some U.S. troops, who will keep fighting for at least two more years.

THOUSANDS ATTEND FUNERAL FOR 3 MOUNTIES

Royal Canadian Mounted Police officers get emotional during the regimental funeral of three slain officers at the Moncton Coliseum on Tuesday in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. Thousands of police officers from across Canada attended the funeral for Fabrice Gevaudan, Douglas Larche and Dave Ross, the three Mounties killed by a gunman on June 4. It was the deadliest attack on Canada’s national police force in nearly a decade. Pipers and drummers led mourners at the funeral in Moncton, which was paralyzed by last week’s massive manhunt for 24-year-old Justin Bourque. Bourque was caught Friday and charged with three murders and two attempted murders. SEAN KILPATRICK/THE CANADIAN PRESS

In brief

New apps ready for World Cup fever NEW YORK — This year’s World Cup will play out on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and messaging apps like WhatsApp just as it progresses in stadiums from São Paulo to Rio De Janeiro.

Nearly 40 percent of Facebook’s 1.28 billion users are fans of soccer, better known as football outside of the U.S. and Australia.

On Tuesday, the world’s biggest online social network is adding new features to help fans follow the World Cup — the world’s most widely viewed sporting event — which takes place in Brazil from Thursday to July 13.

Facebook users will be able to keep track of their favorite teams and players throughout the tournament in a special World Cup section, called “Trending World Cup.” The company is also launching a page called FacebookRef, where fans can see commentary about the matches from “The Ref,” Facebook’s official tournament commentator.

Taliban, Bergdahl swap explained WASHINGTON — The Obama administration only finalized the exchange of the last remaining U.S. prisoner of war in Afghanistan for five Taliban detainees at Guantánamo a day before the swap, a top Democratic lawmaker said Tuesday. He said American officials didn’t learn the pickup location for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl until an hour ahead of time.

Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the Senate’s No. 2-ranked Democrat, presented the timeline as an explanation for why President Barack Obama didn’t inform Congress 30 days before the May 31 prisoner trade.

“They knew a day ahead of time the transfer was going to take place,” Durbin told reporters in the Capitol, where military officials briefed the Senate Armed Services Committee behind closed doors.

“They knew an hour ahead of time where it was going to take place.”

Durbin spoke as a House panel overwhelmingly backed a measure barring U.S. funds for the transfer of detainees from the prison at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, amid the congressional outcry over the swap.

On a bipartisan 33-13 vote, the Appropriations Committee added the provision to a $570 billion defense spending bill. The measure bars 85 percent of the funds in the account for overseas conflicts until Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel reassures Congress that congressional notification on Guantánamo transfers will be respected.

CIA gets tough on harassment WASHINGTON — When Ilana Sara Greenstein was a CIA case officer working at headquarters a decade ago, she said, a married senior manager who was responsible for her promotions made sexual advances toward her.

She spurned him but didn’t dare report the incident, she said in an interview, for fear it would end her career. She went on to a stint in Iraq — where a male officer routinely snapped the bra strap of one of her female colleagues, she said — before she left the agency

in 2008. Back then, she said, there was no mention of sexual or other harassment in the training she got to be a covert operative.

These days, the CIA says it has a zero tolerance policy toward workplace harassment. And an agency document said 15 CIA employees were disciplined for committing sexual, racial or other types of harassment last year. That included a supervisor who was removed from the job after engaging in “bullying, hostile behavior,” and an operative who was sent home from an overseas post for inappropriately touching female colleagues, said the document.

Air Force to fix its nuke program WASHINGTON — The Air Force is launching an ambitious campaign to repair flaws in its nuclear missile corps, after recent training failures, security missteps, leadership lapses, morale problems and stunning breakdowns in discipline prompted Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel to demand action to restore public confidence in the nuclear force.

Air Force leaders are planning to offer bonus pay to missile force members, fill gaps in their ranks, offer a nuclear service medal and put more money into modernizing the Minuteman 3 missile force.

The potential impact of these and other planned changes is unclear.

“I think this is a step in the right direction,” said Dana Struckman, a retired Air Force officer who commanded a Minuteman 3 missile squadron at Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota in 2003-05. “I think it will make a difference.”

Feds update advice on eating some fish

The Associated Press

When Anzalee and Kristain Rhodes look back at their daughter’s first year of life, they won’t be examining blurry, red-eyed camera phone photos. They’ll have crisp, finely detailed professional shots of a baby growing up before their eyes.

Each month, a team of professional photographers shoots them as they go about their daily lives at home and around New York City.

“As a baby, she changes every month.

There’s something new. Her hair changes, everything changes within a month and we wanted to be able to capture all those things,” said Anzalee Rhodes, a 35-year-old statistician who lives on Long Island, New York.

The Rhodes are part of a trend of folks hiring professional photographers to document not just big events like weddings and bar mitzvahs, but everyday activities. Sometimes they want a milestone recorded — a child’s birthday party or family get-together. But often they’re hiring pros to photograph things they might otherwise have shot with their own cellphones or point-and-shoot cameras: a weekend outing, a vacation, or a portrait of a beloved pet.

Those photos are then shared, just like their own cell pictures would be, on social media sites like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

“We’re in a digital-media focused world now. There’s a lot more sharing in general, so that is expanding the footprint of what people will consider to have professionally documented,” said Tim Beckford, a photographer known as Tim Co. with I Heart New York, the New York City-based company that shoots the Rhodes family each month.

The cost varies widely depending on how long the shoot lasts and how many images the client takes. I Heart New York charges $229 for a two-hour session photographing a couple around New York City or $259 for a 90-minute family session around the Big Apple.

Liz Bowling, a 33-year-old account executive, first hired a professional photographer to shoot her wedding and then her newborn daughter, Ashlyn. Since then, she’s had the same photographer travel from Boulder, Colorado, to her home in Lake Tahoe to capture her family a handful of times. The photographer, Julie Afflerbaugh, has even stayed with the family in order to capture them in a candid way, Bowling said.

Federal officials announced Tuesday that they would recommend that women who are pregnant or breast-feeding eat at least 8 ounces of fish a week for their health. But because of worries about mercury, officials still advise limiting weekly fish consumption to 12 ounces.

Current guidelines set by the Food and Drug Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency set only a ceiling on fish consumption among pregnant and breastfeeding women; the goal is to limit harmful effects of methylmercury, a contaminant found in many types of fish. But an analysis by the FDA has found that 1 in 5 pregnant women in the United States eats little or no fish at all.

Dr. Stephen Ostroff, the FDA’s acting chief scientist, said the agency wanted to establish a minimum for consumption because of concerns that many women and children were not getting the benefits that fish can provide.

He cited studies suggesting that children born to women who eat little or no fish during their pregnancies have lower IQs than children born to women who eat the optimum amount of 8-12 ounces a week.

“These findings very consistently demonstrate that among women who consumed more fish during pregnancy — or at least the amounts we’re currently recommending — that there were improvements in children,” he said.

The updated advisory encourages women and young children to eat seafood that is relatively lower in mercury, like shrimp, salmon, canned light tuna and cod. But it cautions against eating fish that tend to have higher levels of contaminants: shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and tilefish from the Gulf of Mexico.

The FDA also said it would recommend limiting the consumption of albacore tuna to 6 ounces weekly because of concerns that canned tuna can have higher mercury levels.

Consumer groups have pushed the agency to mandate information about mercury content on labels or at fish counters.

But the announcement on Tuesday stopped short of such requirements.

OREGON SCHOOL SHOOTING

Police: Teen shooter likely killed himself

By Nigel Duara and Jonathan Cooper The Associated Press

TROUTDALE, Ore. — A teen gunman armed with a rifle shot and killed a student Tuesday and injured a teacher before he likely killed himself at a high school in a quiet Columbia River town in Oregon, authorities said.

After the shooting stopped, police spotted the suspect slumped on a toilet in a bathroom but couldn’t see what was happening with him.

Officers used a robot with a camera to investigate and discovered the suspect was dead and that he had likely killed himself, Troutdale, police spokesman Sgt. Carey Kaer said.

Authorities have tentatively identified the gunman and the slain student, who was found in a locker room at Reynolds High School, but the names were being withheld until their families were notified, police Chief Scott Anderson said.

The teacher’s injuries weren’t life-threatening, and he was treated at the scene. He was identified as Todd Rispler, a 50-year-old physical education instructor and former track

ycoach and quarterback at the school.

The attack panicked students after a lockdown was ordered and they were told to go quietly to their classrooms.

Freshman Daniel DeLong, 15, said after the shooting that he saw a physical education teacher at the school with a bloodied shirt.

Anderson said two oncampus police officers were the first to respond to reports of a shooting. The officers and a tactical team sent to the school “brought this to a conclusion,” Anderson said.

The chief said he was sorry for the family of the slain student. “Today is a very tragic day for the city of Troutdale,” the Veterinary services provided by:

chief said.

Gov. John Kitzhaber added in a statement: “Oregon hurts as we try to make sense of a senseless act of violence.”

The first reports of shots fired came at 8 a.m. on the nextto-last-day of classes. Police initially seemed uncertain about whether there was a live shooter in the school.

Students were eventually led from the school with hands up or on their heads. Parents and students were reunited in a supermarket parking lot. Mandy Johnson said her daughter called from a friend’s phone. “I thank God that she’s safe,” said Johnson, who has three younger children. “I don’t want to send my kids to school anymore.”

The Reynolds School District issued a statement mourning the loss of one of its students.

Reynolds is the second-largest high school in Oregon, with about 2,800 students.

The school is about 15 miles from Portland and its students come from several communities.

During the evacuation of the school, authorities found another student with a gun, and he was taken into custody.

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama, speaking hours after a gunman killed a student at an Oregon high school, said Tuesday that his failure to push through stricter gun laws was the greatest frustration of his presidency. Speaking in blunt and bitter terms about a bloody trail of shootings, Obama said: “Our levels of gun violence are off the charts.”

Obama made his comments to a young audience at a White House question-andanswer session sponsored

by Tumblr. Obama said that passing federal legislation would require a shift in public opinion big enough to move Congress, where he said most members “are terrified of the NRA.” The New York Times

not related to the shooting, Anderson said.

The Oregon violence came less than a week after a gunman opened fire on a college campus in neighboring Washington state, killing a 19-year-old man and wounding two others. It follows a string of mass shootings that have disturbed the nation, including one on Sunday in Nevada that left two Las Vegas police officers and a civilian dead.

The Tuesday shooting was the first fatal school shooting in Oregon since May 1998, when 15-year-old Kip Kinkel killed two students and wounded 25 others at Thurston High School in Springfield near Eugene. He killed his parents prior to the attack and is serving a 111-year prison sentence.

Waste: Congressional panel OKs extra $120M for WIPP recovery Continued from Page A-1 the nuclear waste before approving the changes. When the federal investigation into the leak is complete, Flynn said, he expects it will identify the same lapses.

“A lot of these issues … will be in that final report, issues with procedures and perhaps a lack of involvement from appropriate scientific personnel in approving or developing these procedures, or answering questions as they arise,” he said.

A LANL spokesman conceded the investigation has revealed problems with the lab’s processes.

“In addition to pursing the technical basis for understanding the WIPP event, our preliminary internal investigation has revealed weaknesses in our own processes,” Matthew Nerzig said, “and we need to determine whether this contributed to the event and make immediate course corrections.”

Waste generated at Los Alamos during decades of Cold War nuclear weapons research ceased being shipped to WIPP, the nation’s lone below-ground nuclear waste storage site, after the Feb. 14 radiation leak was detected. Since then, investigators have concentrated on a burst drum stored at

WIPP that is the suspected source of the radiation leak.

Investigators have not pinpointed the cause of the leak, but they are focusing their attention on a halfdozen drums, including the suspected source of the leak at WIPP, that contain organic kitty litter rather than the traditional clay-based variety and unusually acidic waste derived from evaporators used in the development of nuclear weapons.

The switch to plant-based kitty litter as an absorbent material has been a leading theory in investigators’ quest to find the source of the chemical reaction that caused the leak. But Flynn said the kitty litter was most likely the fuel that burned in a dramatic heat event following a chemical reaction, and not the element that triggered the initial reaction.

Scientists’ have been unable to duplicate the reaction in experiments conducted during their investigation.

The waste stream currently under scrutiny by investigators was the subject of email messages between waste packaging contractor EnergySolutions and Los Alamos lab personnel, made public last month by the New Mexico Environment Department, that illustrate gaps in the lab’s processes that

worry Flynn, he said.

The messages, sent last summer, were initiated by EnergySolutions, which sought permission to change acid neutralizers mixed with the waste they packaged in order to more easily measure the acidity of the mixed waste.

Despite an EnergySolutions representative’s suggestion that the lab consult a chemist during its consideration of the request, the lab authorized the switch.

When the messages became public, outside chemists promptly criticized the authorization, saying it should have been evident that introducing the neutralizer to strong oxidizers contained in the lab waste made for a volatile mix. In fact, in the manufacturer’s warnings on the neutralizer, which EnergySolutions provided to the lab when it sought permission for the switch, it was explicitly stated that the neutralizer was incompatible with oxidizers.

Flynn said to date, the investigation has shown that EnergySolutions followed proper steps for authorization to change composition of the waste mix, calling into question whether LANL procedures ultimately contributed to the release of toxic radiation at WIPP. “If you’re dealing with a particularly nasty waste stream,” Flynn said, “the

Shooting: Judge gave maximum sentence

“All these things are unknown, so they can’t say that the $120 million is going to get it up and running,” said Don Hancock, director of the nuclear waste safety program at the Southwest Research and Information Center.

Greg Mello, executive director of the Los Alamos Study Group, said details about the proposed cleanup in the budget request were scant. “It’s not clear to us how recovery is going to proceed,” he said.

The budget request seeks to fund recovery efforts at WIPP with excess money from pension funds established for contractors involved in the nuclear weapons complex.

State Sen. Peter Wirth, D-Santa Fe, who chairs the Legislative Radioactive and Hazardous Materials Committee, said he recognizes that any decisions about federal funding for recovery at WIPP currently don’t have the benefit of complete details to support them.

“Congress is in the same holding pattern as the rest of us in terms of the details,” he said. “Everybody wants to figure out what happened.”

Blasts: King’s commercial intended as a counterpunch Continued from Page A-1

Assistant District Attorney Susan Stinson also highlighted what she saw as Rivera’s apparent lack of contrition, saying that while in jail awaiting trial, Rivera got “187” — which she said was a reference to the section of the California Penal Code for murder — tattooed on his left hand.

Stinson said Rivera also referred to the gun as the “murder weapon” in recorded phone conversations from jail and laughed and joked about the shootings with his younger brother, saying, “I should have just made them beg.”

“There is no self-defense in his actions, and there is no real remorse in his words,” Stinson said. “He’s proud of what he did and would brag about it.”

Baker’s sister, Georgia Baker, quoted Scripture when she asked the court to impose the maximum sentence on her brother’s killer.

“Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man his blood shall be shed,” she said, reading in a quavering voice as family members wept in the gallery.

“There will never be enough justice for us,” she said. “But this isn’t the final judgment. We all have an appointment to stand before the Lord. Please give him the full sentence because he is an example to everyone out there who thinks it’s OK to kill another person.”

Griego was the youngest of eight children, and several of his sisters spoke at Tuesday’s sentencing.

“Christmas 2012 will always be a nightmare that we will never wake up from,” said Melissa Griego, who described her brother as a man who opened doors for women, baby-sat his nieces and nephews, made sure his father took his medication and stayed up late to talk to his mother at the end of the day.

“There will be no more birthday

people who are actually doing the remediation work need to have access to people with scientific backgrounds who can understand the interaction of the chemistry when you introduce different agents.”

WIPP is temporarily mothballed, and could remain at a standstill for months if not a couple of years, according to some federal estimates. Waste shipments there ceased following the radiation leak.

Nonetheless, a congressional subcommittee on Tuesday approved a request from the U.S. Department of Energy for an additional $120 million for recovery efforts at WIPP in addition to more than $200 million already being sought for operation and management of the waste site. The request’s approval by the U.S. House Appropriations, Energy and Water Development Subcommittee is merely the first step in a long legislative journey.

Leaders of watchdog organizations that monitor the nuclear weapons complex in New Mexico say the Department of Energy’s request can only be viewed as a guess at what the recovery at WIPP might cost, considering that the cause of the leak and magnitude of the contamination have not yet been corralled.

parties with Johnny,” she said. “No more barbecues. No more holiday celebrations. No more Christmas.

Our family is forever broken.”

Ashely Griego told Rivera — who appeared in court in shackles and wearing a brown jumpsuit — that she would never forget what he had done to her brother, and that forgiveness was “not an option.”

“How dare you come into our family home and take my brother from us on Christmas Day,” she said. “I hope God has no mercy for you and that you will suffer the way he did.”

The District Attorney’s Office presented a video that featured family photographs of both victims, showing the young men’s short lives beginning with baby pictures, then school photos and ending with images of them beginning to embark on their adult lives.

Rivera hung his head during that part of the proceedings, looking down at his hands and appearing to wipe away tears with his shackled hands.

His mother, Antoinette Cordova, addressed the court in tears, saying her son was “a good kid who was at the wrong place at the wrong time. He’s not that hateful person that they are making him out to be. I talk to him on the phone every day, and he is crying on the phone, wishing he could take it all back. Now he faces life as a number, not a human.”

Finally, Rivera himself stood to address the family. “I’m really sorry for what happened,” he said.

“There is nothing I can do or say to take back or change what happened on Christmas Day.” It was when he addressed his own mother that he seemed to show the most emotion. His voice broke as he turned to face her. “I’m sorry,” he said. “I’m so sorry. I’m sorry.”

The sentence imposed by the judge — a total of 27 and a half years — was the maximum Rivera could have received.

He was sentenced to 15 years, plus one additional year for using a firearm, for his conviction on a second-degree manslaughter count for killing Griego, whom he shot a second time as the injured man lay on the ground.

He got six years for his conviction on voluntary manslaughter for shooting Baker, plus a one-year enhancement for using a firearm.

He got three years for being convicted of tampering with evidence for disposing of the murder weapon and 18 months for being convicted of conspiracy to tamper with evidence. He will be required to serve at least 85 percent of the years he received for the actual killings and will be required to serve at least 50 percent of the remaining time.

Rivera’s attorney, David Silva, said Tuesday he plans to file an appeal on the grounds that certain evidence should not have been allowed at trial.

King’s claim about the state’s low rating is correct. Some of the factors used to compile New Mexico’s ranking reflect directly on Martinez, but others do not.

The 24/7 report, issued last fall, gave New Mexico average marks for handling its finances, a category that actually takes into account the work of state legislators as well as the governor.

“Outside of fiscal management, however, New Mexico performed poorly in several areas,” the report stated. “The state was among the worst 10 nationwide for violent crime, high school graduation rates among adults and health insurance coverage. More than one in five residents lived below the poverty line in 2012, worse than all states but Mississippi. Last year, state GDP [gross domestic product] grew by just 0.2 percent, worse than all but a handful of states.”

Poverty and the stagnant economy are problems for which the governor and legislators each have responsibility. The same holds true for schools, and local districts also have a role in how many kids graduate from high school.

Martinez’s campaign made a point Tuesday of touting new national statistics showing that graduation rates in New Mexico are up. But the statistics also show that she would have to share much of the credit for this with her predecessor, former Gov. Bill Richardson, a man Martinez’s camp often denounces.

In a statement, Martinez’s spokesman, Chris Sanchez, said, “Just last week, New Mexico ranked number two in the country for having the largest improvement in graduation rates.”

Not mentioned by the Martinez camp was that the improved graduation rates were for 2007 through 2012. Richardson, a Democrat, was governor for the majority of that time. Martinez took office in January 2011.

Even with the gains, the survey by Education Week showed that New Mexico’s graduation rate still ranks 44th nationally. It is 74 percent.

Another part of King’s ad mirrored a number of Democratic campaigns from across the country when he said he would demand that women be paid the same wages as men when doing the same work.

This part of the ad is problematic for King.

As state attorney general, he was sued for employment discrimination by three female attorneys in 2010. They alleged they

were paid less than male attorneys who lacked their experience. The women’s lawsuits lingered until this year, when all three filings were “terminated” in U.S. District Court. Litigation records do not say why.

A spokeswoman for the Republican Party of New Mexico accused King of hypocrisy for including equal pay for women in his ad.

“Gary King is attacking Gov. Susana Martinez because he has a terrible overall record, including with women,” said Emily Strickler, spokeswoman for the GOP. “Instead of acknowledging his flawed record, King decided to belittle women in his office and justified his actions by saying they were of ‘average capabilities.’ “ In addition, this part of King’s ad might imply to TV viewers that Martinez does not favor gender equality in salaries, something that her political strategists immediately seized on.

Martinez, in fact, signed an equal-pay bill in 2013 that was sponsored by Rep. Brian Egolf, D-Santa Fe. “What King fails to mention is that the liberal American Civil Liberties Union praised Governor Martinez ‘for her support of New Mexico’s Equal Pay for Women Act and for developing measures to narrow the gender wage gap,’ ” said Sanchez, Martinez’s spokesman.

But the story of equal pay in New Mexico is not so simple that it was solved with the 2013 law.

Egolf said in an interview that he was gratified that Martinez signed his bill, but he said the measure was not comprehensive. Specifically, New Mexico’s law does not cover women who work for the state government, and it may not apply to county government employees, either, said Egolf, an attorney.

“I’m glad Gary King recognized that we still have more to do in ensuring equal pay for all women, not just those employed in the private sector,” Egolf said.

King’s ad is intended as a counterpunch to one by Martinez. She challenged his competency soon after he secured the Democratic nomination for governor June 3. Martinez cited a New Mexican editorial that suggested King should resign as attorney general, and a comment by nowDemocratic Party Chairman Sam Bregman, who once called King the worst attorney general in state history.

Troops: Unit called for air support after it was attacked by Taliban Continued from Page A-1 southern Zabul province ahead of Saturday’s presidential runoff election, said provincial police chief Gen. Ghulam Sakhi Rooghlawanay. After the operation was over, the troops came under attack from the Taliban and called in air support, he said.

“Unfortunately five NATO soldiers and one Afghan army officer were killed mistakenly by NATO airstrike,” Rooghlawanay said.

There was no way to independently confirm Rooghlawanay’s comments.

The coalition would not comment and NATO headquarters in Brussels also declined to comment.

However, special operations forces often come under fire on joint operations and are responsible for calling in air support when needed. Because of constraints placed by President Hamid Karzai, such airstrikes are usually called

“in extremis,” when troops fear they are about to be killed.

Airstrikes have long caused tensions between the Afghan government and coalition forces, especially when they cause civilian casualties.

Airstrikes that kill coalition soldiers are far less common. One of the worst such incidents came in April 2002, when four Canadian soldiers were killed by an American F-16 jet fighter that dropped a bomb on a group of troops during a night firing exercise in southern Kandahar. In April 2004, former NFL player Pat Tillman was killed by coalition fire while serving in an Army Ranger unit in one of the most highly publicized cases.

Relatives identified two of the five American troops killed Monday.

One of those killed was 19-year-old Aaron Toppen of Mokena, Ill., who had deployed to Afghanistan in March, a month after his father died, according to

a family spokeswoman, Jennie Swartz.

His family was suffering a “double hit” of grief, Toppen’s sister, Amanda Gralewski, told the Chicago Sun-Times.

A cousin said military representatives went to the home of Justin Helton’s parents in Beaver, Ohio, early Tuesday to inform them of their son’s death.

Mindy Helton said her cousin specialized in dealing with explosives and was based out of Fort Bragg, N.C. She said the 25-year-old Helton had been in Afghanistan for about two months and was engaged to be married.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for Monday’s ambush in Zabul.

A Taliban spokesman, Qari Yousef Ahmadi, said a battle took place between foreign troops and Taliban fighters in the Arghandab district, and a “huge number” of NATO soldiers were killed or wounded in the fighting. The Taliban often exaggerate their claims.

The insurgents have intensified

attacks on Afghan and foreign forces ahead of Saturday’s presidential runoff, and officials are concerned there could be more violence around the time of the vote.

Of the 30,000 or so U.S. troops left in Afghanistan, special operations forces are among the only ones that are active on the battlefield, mentoring and advising Afghan commandos during raids.

An even smaller group that operates independently of the NATO coalition mandate, which expires at the end of the year, goes after high-value targets.

Many of those special forces are likely to remain after the end of 2014, when foreign combat troops leave the country.

Although the U.S. has pledged 9,800 troops will remain until the end of 2016, a bilateral security agreement allowing them to do so has yet to be signed. The two candidates vying to succeed Karzai have said they will sign the deal.

Separately, a NATO statement said

a service member died Monday as a result of a non-battle injury in eastern Afghanistan.

The deaths bring to 36 the number of NATO soldiers killed so far this year in Afghanistan.

Casualties have been falling in the U.S.-led military coalition as its forces pull back to allow the Afghan army and police to fight the Taliban insurgency.

Violence against Afghans, however, has continued unabated.

Insurgents attacked two vehicles carrying civilian de-miners in eastern Logar province, killing eight and wounding three, said provincial spokesman Din Mohammad Darwesh.

In eastern Ghazni province, insurgents kidnapped 33 university instructors who were traveling to Kabul for a seminar. Kandahar provincial spokesman Dawa Khan Menapal said the 33 were taken by insurgents and there was no word on their fate.

“This is what happens when you don’t tend the weeds in your backyard,” the strategist said. He went on to question Cantor’s decision to go on television — a strategy that may have raised Brat’s profile and let more voters know about the race. “Six weeks ago, Brat was an unknown. The question will be: Did the campaign overreact?”

A seemingly critical issue for Cantor was immigration. The majority leader had championed a Republican version of the Dream Act, which would enable some undocumented immigrants who entered the country as children to qualify for in-state college tuition rates.

Although Cantor never brought the legislation to the House floor, his support for the idea irritated staunch opponents of immigration reform.

The strategist also noted that Republicans will study Tuesday’s results carefully for signs of Democratic crossover, but anecdotally, he did not hear that was a real issue. “People always talk about that, but it hasn’t ever materialized.”

Congress moves to ensure speedier veterans care

By Matthew Daly and Alan Fram The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — United in response to a national uproar, Congress is suddenly moving quickly to address military veterans’ long waits for care at VA hospitals.

The House unanimously approved legislation Tuesday to make it easier for patients enduring lengthy delays for initial visits to get VA-paid treatment from local doctors instead. The Senate was poised to vote on a similar bill within 48 hours, said Democratic leader Harry Reid.

The legislation comes close on the heels of a Veterans Affairs Department audit showing that more than 57,000 new applicants for care have had to wait at least three months for initial

INSIDE u VA reviews deaths of New Mexico patients on waiting list. PAgE B-1

appointments and an additional 64,000 newly enrolled vets who requested appointments never got them.

“I cannot state it strongly enough — this is a national disgrace,” said Veterans Affairs Committee Chairman Jeff Miller, R-Fla., chief author of the House legislation.

Miller made his comments minutes before the House completed the first of two votes on its measure. Lawmakers approved the bill 421-0, then re-voted a little over an hour later, making sure no one was left out on the politically important vote, with five more in favor and no one against. Miller sheepishly

admitted the reason for the second vote: He was in his office and missed the first tally.

Rep. Mike Michaud of Maine, top Democrat on the Veteran Affairs Committee, said the care that veterans receive at VA facilities is “second to none — that is, if you can get in. As we have recently learned, tens of thousands of veterans are not getting in.”

The House bill and a similar version in the Senate would spend hundreds of millions of dollars to hire more doctors and nurses, but that may be easier said than done given a nationwide shortage of primary care physicians.

“This is not a problem that is just isolated to the VA,” said Rep. Dina Titus, D-Nev. “It’s out there in the community.”

Primary care physicians are expected to become increasingly in demand as millions newly insured under the federal health care law start looking for doctors. The Association of American Medical Colleges has projected that by 2020, there will be 45,000 too few primary care physicians, as well as a shortage of 46,000 surgeons and specialists.

Shortages tend to be worse in both rural and inner-city areas.

Nevada already has a chronic shortage of doctors, both in primary care and among specialists, Titus said. The state ranks 46th among states and the District of Columbia for availability of general and family practitioners, she said, and 51st for surgeons.

While she voted for the bill, Titus said Congress and the Obama adminis-

Report: Social Security judges rubber-stamp most claims

Universities turn focus to alcohol, drugs as crime dips

By Richard Pérez-Peña

The New York Times

By Stephen Ohlemacher

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Amid complaints about lengthy waits for Social Security disability benefits, congressional investigators say nearly 200 administrative judges have been rubber-stamping claims, approving billions of dollars in lifetime payments from the cash-strapped program.

Four of the judges defended their work at a combative congressional hearing Tuesday. They said they follow the law.

“I’ve seen their ailments, I’ve seen their pain, right in front of me,” Judge Gerald I. Krafsur of Kingsport, Tenn., told the House Oversight Committee.

Krafsur approved 99 percent of the cases he decided from 2005 to 2013, according to a new report by the Republican staff of the Oversight Committee.

Lifetime benefits average about $300,000, according to the report, so Krafsur’s cases will lead to nearly $1.8 billion in benefits.

Tuesday’s hearing comes as Social Security’s disability program edges toward the brink of insolvency. The trust fund that supports the disability program is projected to run out of money in 2016. At that point, the system will collect only enough money in payroll taxes to pay 80 percent of benefits, triggering an automatic 20 percent cut in benefits.

Congress could redirect money from Social Security’s much bigger retirement program to shore up the disability program, as it did in 1994. But that would worsen the finances of the retirement program, which is facing its own long-term financial problems.

By the time disability cases reach an administrative law judge, the claims have been rejected at least once and often twice by workers in state offices.

House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., was incredulous that so many judges would rule that initial rejections were so often wrong.

“Are the people below you always wrong?” Issa asked Judge Charles Bridges of Harrisburg, Penn.

“I would say they are not legally trained,” replied Bridges, who approved 95 percent of the cases he decided.

When pressed further about his approval rate, Bridges said: “I don’t pay attention to those figures. All I do is concentrate on each case, one at a time.”

Issa: “You don’t notice that you’re essentially saying ‘approved, approved, approved,’ almost all the time?”

Bridges: “I don’t want to be influenced by that.”

The committee’s report found that 191 judges approved more than 85 percent of the cases they decided from 2005 to 2013.

All told, those judges approved $153 billion in lifetime benefits, the report said.

Social Security employs a little more than 1,400 administrative law judges.

“In essence, these judges rubber-stamped nearly every claimant before them for a lifetime of benefits at taxpayer expense,” the report said.

The report said some judges approved claims at alarmingly high rates as part of an agency effort to reduce case backlogs and processing times. It is often easier for a judge to approve a claim than to deny it, the report said.

Denials can be appealed, so judges must meticulously document their reasons, the report said. Approvals are generally accepted, ending the judge’s role in the case.

In 2007, the average processing time for a hearing was 512 days. It was reduced to less than a year in 2012 but has since crept back up above 400 days.

There are 937,600 cases pending before administrative law judges, according agency statistics.

Acting Social Security Commissioner Carolyn W. Colvin blamed budget cuts for the recent increase in wait times.

The House Oversight Committee is holding two hearings this week on the disability program. On Wednesday, Colvin is scheduled to testify.

tration need to do more to ensure veterans receive care in the private sector.

The American Medical Association added its voice, in Chicago, as the House was voting. At its annual policy meeting, the AMA approved a resolution urging President Barack Obama to take immediate action to enable veterans to get timely access to care from outside the VA system. The nation’s largest doctors group also recommended that state medical societies create and make available registries of outside physicians willing to treat vets.

“Clearly there is a problem,” said Dr. Robert Wah, the AMA’s incoming president. He didn’t say how Obama should ensure vets get access to non-VA doctors but said the president needed to address the issue immediately.

Militants drive Iraqi army out of major metropolis Sunni insurgents seize military bases, police stations, bank, airport in audacious attacks

By Suadad al-Salhy, Kareem Fahim and Rick Gladstone The New York Times

BAGHDAD — Iraqi army soldiers abandoned their weapons and fled the northern Iraqi city of Mosul on Tuesday, as Sunni militants freed hundreds of prisoners and seized military bases, police stations, banks, the airport and the provincial governor’s headquarters.

The attacks widened the Sunni insurgency in Iraq and were among the most audacious assaults on the government since the U.S. military withdrawal more than two years ago.

The rout in Mosul, the secondlargest Iraqi city after Baghdad and an important center of the country’s petroleum industry, was breathtaking in its speed and appeared to take government officials by surprise, not to mention residents of the city and surrounding Nineveh province.

A major humiliation for the government forces in Iraq’s Sunni-dominated areas, the defeat also reflected the stamina of the Sunni insurgency, which has been growing with the war in neighboring Syria.

Mosul was the last major urban area of Iraq to be pacified by U.S. troops before they left, and the violence there now threatens to broaden into the adjacent oil-rich region of Kirkuk and autonomous Kurdish region of northern Iraq, which has its own armed forces, the peshmerga. There were unconfirmed reports late Tuesday that Sunni militants, flush with victory in Mosul, had overrun parts of Kirkuk to the southeast as soldiers and police officers abandoned their posts.

Osama al-Nujaifi, speaker of Iraq’s Parliament and a brother of Nineveh’s governor, called on the authorities in the Kurdistan autonomous region to send reinforcements to fight the Sunni militants.

BasNews, an independent news agency in Erbil, capital of the Kurdistan autonomous region, reported Monday that Kurdish military forces had already been ordered to the outskirts of Mosul to protect Kurds

threatened by the Sunni insurgents.

Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki ordered a state of emergency for the entire country and called on friendly governments for help, without mentioning the United States specifically. His Shiite-led government has been increasingly struggling to deal with the resurrection of Sunni militancy in Iraq since the U.S. military departure at the end of 2011 after eight years of war and occupation.

In Washington, the State Department spokeswoman, Jen Psaki, said in a statement that the United States was “deeply concerned about the events that have transpired in Mosul,” and that the Obama administration supported a “strong, coordinated response to push back this aggression.” The statement said the administration would provide “all appropriate assistance to the government of Iraq” but did not specify what aid might be forthcoming.

The mayhem also alarmed Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon of the United Nations, who said in a statement that he was “gravely concerned by the serious deterioration of the security situation in Mosul, where thousands of civilians have been displaced in recent violence.”

By midday Tuesday, militants belonging to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, one of the strongest extremist groups, were in control of much of central and southern Mosul, according to witnesses. Local officials claimed that many of the fighters were jihadists who had swept in from the porous border with Syria, who have increasingly operated with impunity in that region even as President Bashar Assad has reclaimed ground lost to the insurgents elsewhere in Syria.

As hundreds of families fled Mosul, the bodies of slain soldiers, police officers and civilians were seen lying in streets. “They took control of everything, and they are everywhere,” said one soldier who fled the city and gave only his first name, Haidar.

With the fighting on Tuesday, the government faced the possibility of losing another major Iraqi city to extremists whose stated goals include erasing the border with Syria and establishing an Islamic state that transcends both.

“The Iraqi-Syrian border has been steadily disappearing over the

last few months” with ISIL gains, Andrew J. Tabler, a senior fellow with the Program on Arab Politics at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, said in an email message. “This episode is probably the biggest example to date of the failure to keep up with and contain the Syria crisis.”

With its soldiers on the run, the Iraq government appeared to face a deep challenge in regaining control of Mosul, a stronghold for extremist groups linked to al-Qaida and a hub of financing for militants, who ran extortion and kidnapping rings to finance their operations in Iraq and Syria.

“The reach of armed Sunni extremist groups beyond the restive province of Anbar reinforces our view that the Islamist insurgency will create significant challenges to the security forces and central government authority over the next two years,” Ayham Kamel, director of the Middle East and North Africa department at the Eurasia Group, a political risk consulting firm in Washington, said in an assessment emailed to clients.

Kamel said the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant would “use cash reserves from Mosul’s banks, military equipment from seized military and police bases, and the release of 2,500 fighters from local jails to bolster its military and financial capacity.”

The army responded to the rout on Tuesday by bombing at least one military base that had been captured by the militants, but there was no immediate sign of a broader offensive to reclaim the city.

The fighting in Mosul intensified early Tuesday, when the militants stormed the offices of the provincial governor. Later on Tuesday, dozens of army and police vehicles were burning in the streets, witnesses said. The militants, patrolling the city in pickup trucks and flying the black flag of the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant, tried to calm civilians by saying they did not intend to fight the city’s residents. But that did nothing to stem a mass exodus from the city.

Iraqi officials said the attack provided further evidence of contagion from the war in neighboring Syria.

Al-Nujaifi, the Parliament speaker, called the fighting a “foreign invasion of Iraq, carried out by terrorist groups from different countries.”

Colleges have become more aggressive about punishing alcohol and drug offenses, even as the rate of serious crime on campuses has dropped, according to a government report released Tuesday.

The annual report from the Education Department found that in 2011, colleges and universities started disciplinary proceedings for alcohol or drug offenses against 162 of every 10,000 students, not including those who were arrested. That was up from 132 in 2001.

The increase in disciplinary actions “doesn’t reflect actual increased offenses; it’s about stepped-up enforcement,” said S. Daniel Carter, of the VTV Family Outreach Foundation, a nonprofit group dedicated to campus safety. “Typically, when something gets to the point of a liquor law violation being enforced, it’s not just a kid having a beer in his room — it has escalated to something bigger.”

During the same period, the rate of students’ being arrested on campus for alcohol or drug crimes held fairly steady, at 35 per 10,000 in 2011. The report did not differentiate between arrests by campus police officers and by outside law enforcement agencies, or indicate how often colleges called in outside police officers.

The statistics showed a sharp overall decline in serious crimes reported on campuses, but specialists on campus safety cautioned that while there had been some drop, the figures should not be taken at face value. Much of the decline, they said, resulted from new guidelines from the Education Department on how to define the most common of the serious crimes, such as burglary.

Colleges report crime data under a federal law known as the Clery Act, but compliance is inconsistent, and victim advocates say many institutions are sloppy or intentionally misleading.

The reported rate rose in just one category of serious crimes, forcible sex offenses — to 2.2 per 10,000 in 2011 from 1.9 the year before. Specialists attributed the increase to more victims coming forward.

“I think it’s very difficult to look at all of these numbers and draw really precise conclusions,” said Terry W. Hartle, senior vice president of the American Council on Education, a major organization of colleges and universities. The exception, he said, is that “college and university officials are paying more attention to alcohol and drugs.”

In primary and secondary schools, where more reliable data are available, the report showed a long-term decline in crime, mirroring the overall national drop.

In surveys of students ages 12-18 in 2012, 52.4 of every 1,000 reported being a victim of theft or violent crime at school, or on the way to or from school. That was up from the rate in 2010 but far below the peak of 193.5 in 1993.

Looking only at the most serious violent crimes, like sexual assault and aggravated assault, 3.4 in 1,000 students reported being victimized in 2012, the lowest number since the surveys began. In 1993, the rate was 22.1.

COMMENTARY: RAMESH PONNURU

Obama’s coal rules aren’t democratic

R

epublicans are calling President Barack Obama’s new coal-plant regulations a “power grab.”

The truth is more complicated, and ominous, than that.

This isn’t a case where the executive branch has simply gone beyond its authority. It’s a case where officials in all three branches of government have found a way to achieve their policy goals while shielding themselves from accountability.

Congress sends bills to the president and the president signs them: That’s how major policy changes are supposed to work. But Congress has never passed large-scale regulations to combat global warming. It has never even voted to authorize such regulations.

In 2007, though, the Supreme Court pretended that Congress had done so.

Lawmakers had voted to fight climate change without realizing it, when they enacted the Clean Air Act. So ruled the four liberal justices on the bench at the time, plus Justice Anthony Kennedy.

The Clean Air Act, initially written in 1970 and last significantly amended in 1990, was intended to deal with traditional air pollution, the kind that clogs your lungs and clouds your view — not with the possibility that chemicals emitted into the air might affect the entire globe through their effect on the upper reaches of the atmosphere. Justice John Paul Stevens, writing for the court, got around that problem by holding that Congress had “carefully” declined to define “air” to exclude those upper reaches.

A vast regulatory apparatus is now being built on Stevens’ inference. One set of regulations is before the Supreme Court, and it shows how hard it is to fight climate change through the Clean Air Act. To treat greenhouse gases as a conventional air pollutant, the Environmental Protection Agency was required to impose stringent rules on anything that emitted more

Round two for dropout prevention

A

than 100 to 250 tons of it a year. The EPA decided that this wouldn’t be “feasible” and set new thresholds at 100,000 tons a year instead.

In other words, the EPA can’t apply the Clean Air Act to climate change without rewriting it. So the justices will have to decide how much rewriting they’ll let the EPA do.

Even hardened lawyers steeped in the arcana of administrative law must get numbed by such details. So let’s take a step back.

There are good reasons to oppose these regulations.

Mandating cuts in carbon emissions to fight global warming is a strategy that seems highly unlikely to pass a cost-benefit test. We would be better off trying to develop technologies to reduce the risks that climate change poses. And even if cutting emissions were the best way forward, getting the global agreement that strategy would require may not be possible. Even supporters of this strategy acknowledge that the developing world may not agree to carbon caps. The

MoRe on LA BAjAdA

program in the Santa Fe Public Schools to seek recent dropouts and help them obtain a regular high school diploma has a second chance.

Thanks to $25,000 in startup funds from the Santa Fe Community Foundation, Engage Santa Fe now has a shot at life.

The grant will enable district officials to begin recruiting students in July. There are still big hurdles to jump. To work, the program needs some 75 students and more financial support. The district-run dropout recovery program would replace one conceived by Superintendent Joel Boyd as part of his overall secondary school reform.

The idea, as first presented, involved a contract with a private, out-of-state firm. The beauty of the contract was simple: No district dollars would be used to pay for the program. Instead, the company would be paid per pupil, using state dollars, meaning that money to pay for a hand up for dropouts would not be diverted from other district needs.

Some felt, though, that contracting with an outside group was perilously close to the privatization of education. Others wanted the district to run its own recovery program. Still others were upset because Boyd knew one of the founders of the outside firm. The opposition, which delayed the recruitment of students, caused the Florida firm to back out. The district either had to abandon the plan (no money) or start over with new backers.

Because of the grant, there’s a chance that a dropout recovery program actually will happen. That’s a good thing.

Community members, opponents of the old plan, teachers, parents, students — everyone, in other words — needs to step up and help make this work. This program offers a much-needed, additional opportunity for students who have left school and lack skills to succeed in life. Many are young people who might lack the support and financial backing at home to re-engage in education. They need this assistance, and their educational success will benefit the community at large.

We have supported the notion of dropout recovery since the beginning. We believe the Santa Fe Community Foundation’s involvement lends credibility to the entire venture — it’s for such quick responses to pressing needs that local foundations are so essential. As Brian Byrnes, president and CEO of the Santa Fe Community Foundation, said, the nonprofit’s backing could help draw enough support to ensure the viability of the dropout recovery program.

Other supporters would mean the district’s limited funds don’t have to be stretched even more than they already are.

The critics made their points. Now Santa Fe must turn criticism into constructive development of a program this town — as well as its young people — desperately need.

The past 100 years

case for adopting regulations ourselves is that it will make other countries more willing to reach such an agreement.

That seems like a leap of faith.

For these reasons and others, Congress would never have passed these regulations explicitly. In 2010, when Democrats held a filibusterproof majority in the Senate and a large majority in the House, they failed to get a major climate-change law to the president’s desk. That legislation probably had a better cost-benefit ratio than today’s regulations do. We’re imposing expensive but basically pointless rules even though Congress never really voted for them and never would have.

The president need not take full responsibility for the regulations. He can always say that he’s just following the Supreme Court’s ruling, and that, if anything, he has tried to make the rules less onerous.

Members of Congress can say there’s nothing they can do. Even if they oppose the regulations, as almost all Republicans and many Demo-

crats do, they can’t stop them unless they amass a vetoproof supermajority in both houses.

The justices can say that they’re just interpreting the laws on the books, and have given the executive branch plenty of flexibility to make the rules less burdensome.

If you lose your job because of these regulations, how will you know who to blame, even if you follow politics closely?

Which bums will you try to throw out of office? How will you go about trying to change things? We could well end up with a far-reaching, slightly bonkers policy subject to no real democratic review.

Even if the stakes justify these methods of making policy — and I don’t think they do — we should at least acknowledge the cost.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Governor moving economy forward

T

he opening of Union Pacific’s new rail hub here in New Mexico is a credit to Gov. Susana Martinez’s economic policies. Union Pacific’s decision to build a massive rail hub in our state at an investment of about $400 million has led the way for the creation of up to 600 new jobs. There is no better proof that the governor’s tax cuts and slashing of red tape is making New Mexico more attractive to businesses. New Mexico is now poised to move forward with greater economic force.

Take a look I would like to say that if Domingo Sanchez is going to “tell it like it is” (“Santa Fe finance director’s expertise faulted,” June 5) then maybe someone should look into his “leadership” as the vice president for finance at Northern New Mexico College for the last 3½ years, where the budget and accounting has been a major issue. More than 40 people have been “nonrenewed” or programs have been closed in the college by a very top-down administration, including

Sanchez, because of a continuous budget crisis. The decision to let go of faculty and staff has been made by only a few people at the top. Is that good “leadership?” I hope the City Council and the mayor will look at the qualifications of the analyst regarding the recommendations about the city’s Finance Department.

From The Santa Fe New Mexican: June 11, 1914: Roswell — Capt. C.W. Haynes is much worried over the dynamiting of his private fish ponds in “Haynes’ Dream.”

It is done at night and Captain Haynes says that hundreds and hundreds of fish have been killed. A strict search is being made to find the guilty parties and no leniency will be shown as it is a penitentiary offense to do this.

June 11, 1964: A wooden sign designating the “Barrio de Analco” as one of the oldest settlements in the nation has been erected by the Historic Santa Fe Foundation on the building at the corner of College and E. De Vargas Streets. The district which surrounds San Miguel Chapel was first settled in 1620 by Mexican Indians who accompanied Don Pedro de Peralta when he founded the City of Santa Fe in 1610. “Analco” was their word for “the other side of the river.”

June 11, 1989: Businesses that oppose the burial of radioactive waste in New Mexico should not get certain “discretionary” state contracts, Gov. Garrey Carruthers has told his department heads.

Also, John Dendahl, head of the state’s Economic Development and Tourism Department and a longtime supporter of the controversial Waste Isolation Pilot Plant that would hold the waste, has written a letter chiding several Santa Feans who have been associated with criticism of the project.

In 1957, then-Sen. John F. Kennedy won the Pulitzer Prize for the best-selling Profiles in Courage.

Questions about Kennedy’s authorship lingered for decades until, in 2008, Ted Sorensen, Kennedy’s longtime speechwriter, set the record straight by saying that he ‘helped choose the words of many of its sentences.’

Vanessa Ferlito, Brandon Jay McLaren and Serinda Swan also star.

WASHINGTON illary Rodham Clinton has written a new book. Except maybe she hasn’t. It all depends on what the definition of “written” is.

The former first lady, U.S. senator and secretary of state had some help on her new memoir, Hard Choices. Clinton employed a phalanx of aides and associates in producing the just-released volume.

But don’t expect to hear much about Clinton’s “book team,” as she calls those who helped her write the book, which carries her name alone on its cover.

Clinton’s acknowledgment of her three-man team — Dan Schwerin, a former Senate and State Department aide to Clinton; Ethan Gelber, another State Department aide; and Ted Widmer, a Clinton adviser and Brown University historian — appears in just a few sentences on Page 597 of the 635-page book. Their exact contributions, however, aren’t spelled out. Such is the lot of the ghostwriter.

Actually, many ghostwriters get even less credit. The ghost behind Clinton’s 1996 bestseller, It Takes a Village, wasn’t credited at all. That prompted complaints from Barbara Feinman Todd, a Georgetown University lecturer and writer who reportedly labored for seven months on the book.

Feinman’s complaint implicitly raised a question: Is it ethical to pass off the work of someone else as your own?

Ghostwriters have been channeling the thoughts of politicians, business executives, celebrities and just plain folk with little or no credit since the days of Cyrano de Bergerac, the 17th-century dramatist who, as a fictionalized character in Edmond Rostand’s 1897 play, anonymously wrote poetry to help another woo his beloved Roxane.

H

John F. Kennedy and Malcom X In 1957, then-Sen. John F. Kennedy won the Pulitzer Prize for the best-selling Profiles in Courage, a collection of stories about intrepid Americans throughout history.

But questions about Kennedy’s authorship lingered for decades. In 2008, Ted Sorensen, Kennedy’s longtime aide and speechwriter, set the record straight in his autobiography, Counselor: A Life at the Edge of History. Sorensen wrote that he “did a first draft of most chapters” of Profiles and “helped choose the words of many of its sentences.”

While its title suggests otherwise, The Autobiography of Malcolm X was a collaboration between the civil rights activist and journalist Alex Haley, who later wrote Roots. Although the story was Malcolm’s, Haley was the researcher, organizer and author of the classic book.

Under contractual agreement, however, Haley received an “as told to” cover credit on most, but not all, editions.

Using ghosts to produce self-serving political books is so common that the HBO sitcom Veep satirized it. The program’s lead character, the vice president (Julia LouisDreyfus), can barely recognize anything mentioned in her

book, which was written by a campaign aide and which she hasn’t read.

Since most ghostwriters sign nondisclosure agreements that prohibit them from revealing the extent of their involvement or their remuneration, it’s hard to know whether the putative author had assistance or even did any work.

Timothy Geithner and Sheryl Sanberg Former Treasury secretary Timothy F. Geithner, for example, is listed as the author of Stress Test: Reflections on Financial Crises, a recent bestseller. But this understates the role of Time magazine journalist Michael Grunwald, who spent months whipping Geithner’s narrative into readable form. Geithner calls Grunwald his “collaborator” in his acknowledgments, but Grunwald’s name doesn’t appear on the cover or the title page (Grunwald, a former Post reporter, declined to comment).

Journalist and TV writer Nell Scovell gets somewhat higher-profile treatment from Sheryl Sandberg, on Lean In, the best-selling manifesto about women in the workplace. In her acknowledgments, Sandberg calls Scovell her “writing partner.” And Scovell’s name appears on the title page of Lean In alongside Sandberg’s (“Sheryl Sandberg with Nell Scovell”). While Scovell is often described in profiles as the co-author of the book, her name is absent from its cover, which credits only Sandberg. Scovell doesn’t mind.

“Lean In was Sheryl’s story and something she’d been writing in her head for 20 years,” she says. “I was thrilled to help her.”

Hillary Clinton and Laura Bush For her 2010 memoir, Spoken From the Heart, former first lady Laura Bush pumped up her prose with the help of writer Lyric Winik, who, Bush wrote, “helped me put my story into words” but otherwise remained behind the scenes.

For the record, Clinton’s camp won’t discuss her use of ghostwriters.

Professional ghostwriters say their clients turn to them for a key reason: Writing a book is time-consuming and difficult.

“Books are a huge amount of work,” says Mark Sullivan, the owner-director of Manhattan Literary, a New York-area ghostwriting firm. “It takes a lot of experience. Some very capable people want books written but don’t have the time or the expertise to do it.”

Sullivan charges his clients — businesspeople promoting investment strategies and doctors with thoughts about the health-care system, among others — fees starting at $15,000 per book. But the price can rise quickly depending on how long and complex a project is, he says.

Top ghostwriters can earn as much as $500,000 for their work, says Kevin Anderson, who runs a self-named ghostwriting firm in New York.

Both Anderson and Sullivan see no ethical issue in permitting a client to take credit for work produced anonymously by someone else. “A client who hires a ghostwriter is still the author of their book,” Anderson said.

After the presentation Tuesday by the Public Banking Institute, Gonzales said he wants the city to issue a request for qualifications to conduct a feasibility study over the summer.

The results of that study could be

“This is going to be a very slow, long, methodical process,” Gonzales said. “No one is going to rush into creating a public bank, and we’re going to make sure that the public fully understands and supports it before it even gets to that type of decisionmaking process.”

Charges dropped against cabbie Bourgeois may still sue over ex-cop’s ‘takedown’ during March traffic stop

By Phaedra Haywood

The New Mexican

Criminal charges have been dismissed against a taxi driver who sustained a black eye when she was tackled to the ground by a Santa Fe police officer during a March traffic stop.

Dawn Bourgeois, 40, had been charged with no proof of vehicle registration, no proof of insurance, stopping or parking in a prohibited place, and resisting, evading Dawn or obstructing an Bourgeois officer. The arrest came after a confrontation with an officer who had pulled her over because she allegedly had stopped her cab in a buffer zone next to the railroad crossing at the intersection of Cerrillos Road and St. Francis Drive, where automobiles aren’t permitted to stop.

According to video recorded by former Officer Jose Gutierrez’s dashboard camera, Bourgeois got out of her vehicle after Gutierrez told her to stay in the car. Gutierrez, who is no

The dark line of the La Bajada escarpment is a visible geologic feature from Interstate 25, marking the southern entrance to the Santa Fe Basin and north-central New Mexico.

The proposed mine is on top of the mesa off Waldo Canyon Road, just east of Interstate 25.

County staff, who had recommended rejecting the mining proposal twice before, this time recommended approval of the zoning application.

No state agency or county office had concerns with the proposed mine, according to letters filed as part of the zoning application process.

ALBUQUERQUE — Officials with the Veterans Affairs health care system in New Mexico said Tuesday they have identified at least 21 people who died while waiting to see a doctor amid an investigation into lapses in care.

VA administrators have not determined whether any of the deaths were related to a lack of James Robbins care or delays in seeing a doctor.

“What we are doing is looking at every single one of those cases in detail to make sure the wait for care was or was not related to their death,” said Dr. Meghan Gerety, chief of the health care system’s integrated care service. “At this point, we’re still in the review process. It takes a while.”

The VA learned of the patients’ deaths while reaching out to more than 1,000 veterans who were on waiting lists to see primary care doctors or receive specialty care. Calls are being made to each person on the waiting lists. Letters are being sent to some in an effort to see if they still want appointments, if their condi-

County to tackle La Bajada mine request at hearing

By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

County officials are expecting so many people to attend a hearing on a proposed mine on La Bajada mesa south of Santa Fe that they moved the hearing from the commission chambers to the Santa Fe Community Convention Center.

The hearing is scheduled for 4 p.m.

Wednesday.

County commissioners will take public comments and then decide whether to approve an application by Buena Vista Estates and Rockology of Albuquerque to rezone 50 acres on the mesa for an open-pit aggregate mine.

The firms say the mine will create jobs, provide a valuable construction material and generate revenue for county coffers.

LAS VEGAS, Nev. — Jerad Miller was ready to share his anti-government views with just about anyone who would listen, views that telegraphed his desire to kill police officers and his willingness to die for what he hoped would be a revolution against the government.

He told neighbors, television reporters and the Internet.

Once, he threatened to “start shooting people” while on the phone with the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles.

If local or federal authorities were monitoring his online rants and increasingly sharp threats, they aren’t saying — not with police still investigating what triggered Miller and his wife to gun down two officers and a third man Sunday before taking their own lives.

Even if Miller had attracted the attention of law enforcement, authorities would have initially been confined to knocking on his door and starting a conversation to try to gauge whether he was a true threat. His opinions were free speech, protected by the First Amendment. And given limited resources and rules against creating government watch lists, it would be impossible to keep tabs on everyone who actively promotes beliefs that may — or may not — turn to violence.

“We can’t go around watchlisting folks because they voice anti-government opinions because they say law enforcement should be killed,” said detective Rob Finch, who advocates using social media to monitor extremists in his work with the Greensboro, N.C., police department. “There are thousands of people out there that voice these things on the Internet every day. YouTube is filled with them.”

Indeed, Miller took to YouTube and Facebook to broadcast his rhetoric.

“In this particular situation, I think we would all be kidding ourselves if we said the signs weren’t there,” Finch said.

Miller and his wife, Amanda, shot and killed two officers who were on their Sunday lunch break at a pizza parlor, then told patrons that they were starting a revolution, according to police. They went next to a nearby Wal-Mart, where Amanda Miller killed a shopper who confronted her husband before police arrived.

After a gun battle inside the store, Amanda Miller fatally shot her husband and then herself, police said.

Neither the FBI nor Las Vegas police would comment on whether they were aware of Jerad Miller’s threats and if so, whether they took any action.

In January, Miller called a recorded help line of the Indiana BMV after he was pulled

ALBUQUERQUE — The city of Albuquerque must pay more than $6 million in connection with the wrongful death of a man with schizophrenia killed

by Albuquerque police, a New Mexico judge ruled Tuesday.

In her detailed findings of fact, District Court Judge Shannon Bacon said officers were not acting in self-defense when they punched and shot Christopher Torres, 27, in his backyard in 2011.

Bacon also wrote that the use of deadly force violated Torres’ constitutional rights.

According to authorities, Detectives C.J. Brown and Richard Hilger shot Torres in the back at close range while serving an arrest warrant on a felony charge of aggravated auto burglary. Torres was accused of trying to carjack a woman at a traffic light. During the confrontation with police, he allegedly tried to punch Hilger and grabbed Hilger’s gun as they scuffled in the suspect’s backyard, police said.

But Bacon said the officers did not present the arrest warrant when they confronted him in his yard. The judge said Hilger and Brown also did not contact Torres’ assigned Crisis Intervention Team officer or family before confronting him — something the family had asked in order to ease tensions.

Instead, the officers jumped the fence and walked toward him, the ruling said.

“The unnecessary escalation of events by Detectives Brown and Hilger and their own aggressive acts at the Torres home created the unnecessarily dangerous situation in which Christopher Torres was shot to death,” Bacon wrote.

Steve Torres, Christopher Torres’ father, said he hadn’t seen the ruling, but he thinks it vindicates the family’s story that their son was unnecessarily killed by police.

“For us, it was never about the money,” Torres said. “It was about setting the record straight.”

An attorney for the city of Albuquerque did not immediately respond to an email from The Associated Press.

Janet Blair, a spokeswoman for Albuquerque police, said there is still a pending civil rights action in federal court, so police Chief Gorden Eden is prohibited from commenting.

The ruling comes as the city of Albuquerque is in talks with the U.S. Justice Department over pending police reforms following a scathing report faulting Albuquerque police over its use of force and the way officers handle suspects battling mental illness.

The Justice Department is expected to release a draft of its decree later this week.

u The city would relocate an unspecified number of parking spaces for the disabled but increase them by two. u Deliveries would continue to be allowed on Lincoln Avenue and Old Santa Fe Trail at all times. Planters would be used to provide a barrier between pedestrians and delivery vehicles. u Tables and chairs would be purchased by the city for public use, though the city didn’t specify where these would be placed. u The city would continue to “bring forward further improvements for consideration.”

A wide-ranging national audit released Monday showed more than 1,000 veterans as of mid-May had been waiting three months or more for initial medical appointments within the New Mexico system.

The audit also found new patients seeking primary care in New Mexico were waiting an average of 46 days, while those needing specialty care waited nearly two months.

New patients seeking mental health care waited an average of 38 days.

Officials also acknowledged close to 3,000 patients were assigned to a doctor who didn’t actually see them and was available only by phone because of a lack of primary care physicians within the system.

Gerety and James Robbins, interim director of the New Mexico VA system, said Tuesday during a news conference that significant progress has been made in reducing wait times in some areas, but others still need improvement.

They said the effort to improve patient access in New Mexico started long before the uproar that began with reports of patients dying while awaiting appointments and of cover-ups at the Phoenix VA center.

The New Mexico system is also holding open clinics on the weekends to reach more veterans and is considering establishing a hotline for veterans who are seeking health care. VA staffers who schedule appointments also are getting more training with a focus on accuracy, and two new teams of medical professionals are being hired to see veterans sooner.

Still, questions about the scheduling process have raised red flags in New Mexico and elsewhere, prompting further review of operations at more than 100 VA facilities and clinics around the country.

Robbins said further review and any independent audits are welcome and will help administrators pinpoint where improvements need to be made.

Pointing to the recent internal audit, Robbins said: “I don’t think we would call this data up and try to say we have no issues with wait times. This data combined with all the other information we’re getting clearly tells us we have an issue with wait times.”

Calif. court rules In brief Rio Arriba jurors will teacher tenure likely hear murder case creates inequality

By Lyndsey Layton

The Washington Post

A Los Angeles Superior Court judge ruled Tuesday that tenure, seniority and other job protections for teachers have created unequal conditions in public schools and deprive poor children of the best teachers.

In a case that could have national implications for the future of teacher tenure, Judge Rolf Treu sided with a Silicon Valley mogul against some of the most powerful labor unions in the country.

In a 16-page ruling, in the case of Vergara v. California, Treu struck down three state laws as unconstitutional. The laws grant tenure to teachers after two years, require layoffs by seniority, and call for a complex and lengthy process before a teacher can be fired.

David F. Welch, founder of an optical telecommunications manufacturing firm, charged that job protections allow the state’s worst educators to continue teaching and that those ineffective teachers are concentrated in high-poverty, minority schools, amounting to a civil rights violation.

Welch’s case was argued by a team of prominent attorneys, including former U.S.

solicitor general Ted Olson and Theodore Boutrous, who most recently paired to win a U.S. Supreme Court decision that struck down California’s prohibition against same-sex marriage.

The defendants in the case, which include Gov. Jerry Brown, D, and other state officials, have been joined by the California Teachers Association and the California Federation of Teachers.

The ruling was a setback for the labor unions, which represent about 400,000 educators in California and whose core mission is to protect teachers’ jobs.

They are likely to appeal the lower court decision, and a final resolution could take years.

In many ways, the case was a proxy fight for some of the national conflicts over the teaching profession.

Backing Welch are some of the most incendiary players in the fight over the future of public schools, including Michelle Rhee, the former D.C. schools chancellor who got rid of tenure in the District in 2009 and went on to form an advocacy group aimed at eliminating it across the country. Parent Revolution, the group behind the controversial “parent trigger” laws, is another supporter.

Cabbie: Says she’s undergoing physical therapy for injuries Continued from Page B-1 longer employed by the city police department, later reported that he had used an “arm bar takedown” to put Bourgeois on the ground.

Santa Fe Police Department spokeswoman Celina Westervelt said at the time that getting out of a vehicle during a traffic stop isn’t a crime, but it can make an officer nervous.

Bourgeois filed a tort claim notice against the Santa Fe Police Department about a week after the incident. A few days later, in mid-April, Gutierrez resigned.

Defense attorney Tom Clark said Tuesday that didn’t stop the former officer from showing up at Santa Fe County Magistrate Court on Monday to testify against Bourgeois.

Clark said Gutierrez had the “gall” to behave as if he were still the prosecuting officer in the case. As it turned out, the registration and insurance papers for the cab Bourgeois had been driving were in the glove box all along, and a call to the City Attorney’s Office led to the charges being dropped.

Clark said dismissal of the

criminal charges will allow him to concentrate on filing a civil suit in the case.

“I feel vindicated,” Bourgeois said Tuesday. “It doesn’t change what happened, but it feels like justice to me.”

Bourgeois said she is still undergoing physical therapy for injuries to her hand that she sustained when Gutierrez took her down, and she is still “dealing with the emotional and physical aftermath of it all.”

But she said having an opportunity to talk about what happened has been a positive part of her healing process.

“It felt good to speak up about this,” she said. “I would like people to come away with the fact that they do have civil rights, and just because a cop has a badge, they are not infallible and they are not untouchable. … It’s important for misconduct to be spoken about because then it can shed light on people who aren’t protecting and serving.”

Bourgeois said she also thinks it’s important for people to speak up when officers behave well, so that those who are doing a good job can be recognized.

A district judge has denied a defense attorney’s request to move his client’s murder trial from Rio Arriba County to Santa Fe County on the grounds that the jury pool in Rio Arriba County, where the crime was committed, has already been tainted due to the high-profile nature of the case.

Rhiannon Montoya is accused of masterminding the 2012 murder of her uncle — an educator well-known in the community. Motions in the case are already being heard in a Santa Fe courtroom, because the First Judicial District Court handles cases from Rio Arriba, Santa Fe and Los Alamos counties. But the jury would be selected from Rio Arriba County residents.

Montoya’s attorney argued that residents in that county already know too much about the case and have formed negative opinions of his client. Prosecutors argued that residents in both counties have read media accounts of the event.

District Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer decided Tuesday that the attorneys will begin by trying to pick a jury from two pools of jurors from Rio Arriba County,

and if they can’t find enough suitable jurors, they will then be allowed to choose from a panel of Santa Fe County jurors.

The framed service medals were among items taken from Hopper’s home during an April break-in.

State plans to grade teacher prep colleges

Local college leader to join Pratt Institute

Six New Mexico colleges offering teacher preparation programs will soon receive report cards on how well their graduates help K-12 students learn within the first three years of graduation, Gov. Susana Martinez announced Tuesday.

New initiatives designed to improve teacher preparation in the state also include a reworking of the Basic Skills Exam that teachers must take to pass the New Mexico Teacher Assessment. The governor said she will commit $4.65 million to colleges to support their teachertraining programs.

Gerry Snyder, vice president of academic affairs at the Santa Fe University of Art and Design, will take on the position of dean of the School of Art at Pratt Institute in New York this year.

His last day at the Santa Fe University of Art and Design will be Friday.

Snyder first joined the local university as chairman of the art department in 2000 and later became a faculty member. The private institute is seeking a replacement for Snyder.

Leonard, Spurs roll to victory over Heat

By Brian Mahoney

The Associated Press

MIAMI — Kawhi Leonard and the San Antonio Spurs shot their way into history — and back into the lead in the NBA Finals.

Leonard scored a career-high 29 points, and the Spurs made a finals-record 75.8 percent of their shots in the first Spurs 111 half in a 111-92 victory over the Heat 92 Miami Heat on Tuesday night that gave them a 2-1 lead.

The Spurs made 19 of their first 21 shots and finished 25 of 33 in the first half, bettering the 75 percent shooting by Orlando against the Lakers in the 2009 finals.

“I don’t think we’ll ever shoot 76 percent in a half ever again,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said.

The Spurs led by as much as 25 and were only briefly challenged in their second lopsided victory in the series.

Unlike Game 1, when they didn’t pull away until the final minutes, the Spurs were up big before halftime in this one.

Returning to the arena where they were oh-so-close to winning a fifth championship last year, the Spurs came out playing like they were trying to build a lead that was impossible to blow.

They shot 13 of 15 and led 41-25 lead after the first quarter, then hit their first six shots of the second in front of a stunned crowd in Miami to go ahead 55-30.

Leonard scored only 18 points in

Mickelson trying to keep his focus on Pinehurst

By Doug Ferguson

The Associated Press

PINEHURST, N.C. — Phil Mickelson spent five hours in the stifling heat Tuesday at Pinehurst No. 2 with a lot on his mind.

He was trying to sharpen his game, figure out what it will take to finally win a U.S. Open and make enough putts with his claw grip to avoid losing to a pair of players whose combined age is younger than him.

This major has a reputation as the toughest test in golf.

It’s every bit of that for Mickelson.

“I really believe that this week is testing a player’s entire game,” Mickelson said. “Because it forces

Phil Mickelson

you to make good decisions, to choose the right club off the tee, hit solid iron shots into the green and utilize your short game to save strokes. It’s just a wonderful test … the best test I’ve seen to identify the best

player.”

His definition of Pinehurst and its rugged, natural look would seem to require every ounce of concentration.

And that could be his biggest challenge.

On the golf course, Mickelson is trying to ignore the enormous expectations on him this week. He holds the worst kind of U.S. Open record with six runner-up finishes. He needs this major to complete the career Grand Slam.

And he’s a sentimental favorite at Pinehurst No. 2, where in 1999 he played the entire week knowing his wife was on the verge of delivering their first child.

Payne Stewart made a 15-foot par putt on the final hole to beat him by one shot. Amanda Mickelson was born the next day. Stewart died in a plane crash four months later.

“Payne and I had this moment

where we talked about fatherhood, but he also talked about winning future U.S. Opens,” Mickelson said.

“Although I haven’t won one yet, I’m still fighting hard, and this would be a great place to break through and do it. The flip side is that I tend to do well when it’s least expected.

“I don’t want to put the pressure on that this is the only week that I’ll have a chance,” he said. “I think I’ll have a number of great opportunities in the future years. But this is certainly as good a chance as I’ll have.”

Off the course, Mickelson has made headlines that threaten his clean image. He was linked two weeks ago

Knicks hire Derek Fisher as head coach

By Brian Mahoney The Associated Press

Derek Fisher was never the best player, certainly not the tallest or quickest.

But whether on the court with Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal, or across the bargaining table from David Stern and Adam Silver, he never feared taking the shot, speaking his mind, or doing whatever else was expected of a leader.

So he has every Derek Fisher attribute the New York Knicks need — except experience as a coach, the job they hired him to do.

“But I am experienced,” Fisher said Tuesday. “Basketball is a game that I am experienced in playing, understanding, leading in, guiding in, helping another group of people achieve the greatest gift in the world as a professional athlete, and that’s being a champion. That I have experience in, and that’s the experience that I plan on sharing with these players, sharing with this organization.”

That’s what made Phil Jackson turn to one of his most trustworthy former players for his first coaching hire. Just days after finishing his 18th season, the 39-year-old Fisher was tabbed to replace Mike Woodson, whom Jackson fired in his first major move as team president.

Fisher won five championships playing for Jackson with the Los Angeles Lakers and was known for his knack for hitting clutch postseason shots while playing an NBArecord 259 playoff games. But some of his most important work came in the locker room, just as it will now.

“He made some incredible shots in the playoffs, always stepped into the vacuum of leadership, but more than anything else it was the ability of Derek to speak the truth from what the sense of the group was,” Jackson said during a press conference at the Knicks’ training center in Greenburgh, New York.

SÃO PAULO t’s almost time. The day Brazilians have been anxiously waiting for is finally arriving.

Brazil plays Croatia on Thursday to get the home World Cup underway, beginning its quest for a sixth world title almost seven years after the nation was picked as host.

After so much talk about delays, protests and problems, fans at last are getting a chance to cheer for the national team on home soil in football’s showcase tournament.

I

If Brazil wins the opening game, the fact that the stadium in São Paulo isn’t even fully finished yet will quickly be forgotten. A loss, quite simply, is unthinkable for a nation whose identity is so closely linked to its football team.

Brazil hasn’t hosted the World Cup since 1950, when it endured a heartbreaking loss to Uruguay in the final. This time, everybody knows that only

the title will be enough to please the home crowd.

“We are all eager to get started, we are just counting the days,” Brazil midfielder Ramires said Tuesday. “We know that the fans have confidence in our team and they are behind us. We have to do everything possible to try to win this World Cup. We know everybody is expecting us to do it.”

Boosted by the home crowd, Brazil is one of the main favorites to recapture the trophy won by Spain four years ago in South Africa. But the other usual World Cup contenders will be trying to spoil the party in the land of football, including Ger-

of business in the classroom, should grades be considered when determining the best athletes?

The fact that an athlete can excel in sports and in academics shows a lot of character, and anyone that can do both certainly deserves to get a pat on the back.

Personally, I am torn on the subject. As a self-proclaimed nerd, I love to see athletes that have a lot more going on for them outside of sports, but I don’t think academics should be considered when determining the top athletes. Simply put, they are just irrelevant to athletics.

To my knowledge, no one has ever said, “That was a sweet touchdown run, but what did he get on his last math test?” And I don’t think anyone’s GPA has ever turned up on a scouting report. None of Mang’s opponents cared that he was a good

student. They were too worried about his fastball.

I am in no way saying that athletes should not care about school, as academics will still lead to a better future. Sports can too, as baseball will likely pay for Mang to go to college, but it’s always good to have something to fall back on. You never know when that knee will give out.

All I’m saying is that academics don’t tell you how good an athlete is, so therefore they should not be a factor when deciding who is the best.

Awarding athletes based on GPA might also alienate those who struggle in school for legitimate reasons.

Let’s let sports be sports and academics be academics, but that shouldn’t mean athletes shouldn’t strive to be better students. They just shouldn’t recieve an athletic award for it.

SPORTS BASEBALL

Wainwright wins 9th, Cards beat Rays a run until Jason Kipnis drove in a pair with a two-out double in the eighth. Aaron Crow got four outs for his first save of the season.

The Associated Press

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Adam Wainwright became the NL’s first nine-game winner, and the St. Louis Cardinals beat Tampa Bay 1-0 on Cardinals 1 Tuesday night, the Rays’ third straight Rays 0 shutout loss.

The Cardinals have three consecutive shutouts for the first time since April 2013.

St. Louis, with 13 shutouts this season, was coming off 5-0 victories over Toronto on Saturday and Sunday.

Tampa Bay has been shut out an ALleading 10 times this season. The Rays, who have lost 14 of 15, have not scored a run in 28 innings.

Wainwright (9-3) scattered seven hits over seven innings. Trevor Rosenthal got the final four outs, including a base-loaded pop fly by Matt Joyce in the eighth, for his 17th save.

PHILLIES 5, PADRES 2 In Philadelphia, A.J. Burnett threw 7⅓ sharp innings, and Marlon Byrd hit a three-run homer in the Phillies’ victory over San Diego.

Back from a 1-5 trip that left them tied with the Cubs for the worst record in the NL, the Phillies opened a six-game homestand with their 13th win at Citizens Bank Park.

Burnett (4-5) allowed two runs and three hits to earn his first win since May 20.

Jonathan Papelbon left the bases loaded in a scoreless ninth to record his 300th career save, becoming the 26th pitcher to reach that mark. He has 14 consecutive saves after blowing his first try.

Will Venable hit a solo homer for the Padres. Ian Kennedy (5-7) gave up five runs and seven hits in seven innings.

DIAMONDBACKS 4, ASTROS 1 In Phoenix, Bronson Arroyo pitched seven strong innings, and Aaron Hill had two late RBIs for Arizona.

Arroyo (6-4) matched Houston starter Brad Peacock through seven innings before the Diamondbacks scored two runs off Josh Fields (1-4) in the seventh.

Hill hit a sacrifice fly in the inning and Cody Ross knocked him in with a double to right-center after an error by Astros shortstop Jonathan Villar. Hill added a runscoring double in the eighth inning to put Arizona up 4-1.

Paul Goldschmidt also homered and Addison Reed worked a perfect ninth for his 16th save. Arizona has won six of eight.

MARLINS 8, RANGERS 5 In Arlington, Texas, Christian Yelich set career highs with four hits and four RBIs as Miami beat the Rangers for its record-tying 13th consecutive interleague victory.

RED SOX 1, ORIOLES 0 In Baltimore, Brandon Workman allowed one hit over 6⅔ innings, and Boston beat Chris Tillman and the Orioles for its second win in eight games.

Mike Napoli’s third-inning RBI single was all the offense the Red Sox needed to come out on the positive end of a pitchers’ duel for the first time this season. Boston was 0-18 when scoring fewer than three runs.

Workman (1-0) walked one and struck out four in earning his first win as a starter since last July. The right-hander held the Orioles hitless until Ryan Flaherty singled with two outs in the sixth.

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright throws during the first inning of Tuesday’s game against the Tampa Bay Rays in St. Petersburg, Fla. MIKE CARLSON/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Yelich’s single in the seventh inning sent home two unearned runs and put the Marlins ahead to stay.

The 13-game interleague winning streak matched the major league record shared by the New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays, who both reached that mark in 2004.

The Marlins wrap up their two-game set in Texas on Wednesday.

AMERICAN LEAGUE TWINS 4, BLUE JAYS 0 In Toronto, Brian Dozier hit a two-run home run, Kevin Correia won for the first time in four starts and Minnesota beat the Blue Jays.

Newly signed slugger Kendrys Morales had two hits and scored a run as the Twins avoided falling a season-worst five games below .500.

The Blue Jays were shut out for the third time in four games.

Correia (3-7) allowed six hits, walked one and struck out one in six innings. It was his first scoreless outing since Aug. 27, 2013, with seven innings against Kansas City.

ROYALS 9, INDIANS 5 In Kansas City, Mo., Jason Vargas cooled down hot-hitting Cleveland, Eric Hosmer hit a two-run homer and the Royals held on to beat the Indians.

Hosmer also drove in a run during a fourrun fourth inning. Alex Gordon homered in the eighth and Mike Moustakas hit a tworun shot later that inning as the Royals (32-32) moved back to .500 by matching their second-best run total of the season.

Vargas (6-2) gave up six hits and hit three batters with pitches, but didn’t allow

NATIONAL LEAGUE METS 6, BREWERS 2 In New York, Taylor Teagarden hit a grand slam in his Mets debut, Daniel Murphy had a two-run shot and New York beat Milwaukee to snap a six-game skid.

Called up from Triple-A Las Vegas on Sunday to replace demoted catcher Travis d’Arnaud, Teagarden connected for his second career slam after Marco Estrada walked the bases loaded in the sixth.

Daisuke Matsuzaka (3-0) pitched six effective innings and Murphy homered off Estrada (5-3) in the third.

CUBS 7, PIRATES 3 In Pittsburgh, Anthony Rizzo homered, doubled twice and drove in three runs to lead Chicago over the Pirates, spoiling Gregory Polanco’s much-anticipated debut.

Rizzo hit a two-run homer in the first inning off Francisco Liriano, who left in the fourth with discomfort on his right side.

Rizzo also doubled and scored in the fourth and hit an RBI double in the seventh, a drive to deep right-center that struck Polanco’s left wrist as the touted rookie tried to make the catch.

Polanco went 1 for 5 after getting called up from Triple-A Indianapolis, where the right fielder was leading the International League with a .347 batting average and 49 RBIs in 62 games.

DODGERS 6, REDS 1 In Cincinnati, Josh Beckett allowed two hits in six shutout innings, and four Dodgers had two hits each as Los Angeles defeated the Reds in a game delayed more than 2 hours by rain.

Yasiel Puig, Adrian Gonzalez, Andre Ethier and Justin Turner led the Los Angeles offense with two hits apiece. Beckett got into the act with a single of his own for the Dodgers, who have won three straight and four of five.

Golf: Mickelson’s Open record disappointing Continued from Page B-5 to an insider trading investigation involving activist investor Carl Icahn and Las Vegas gambler over some timely trades of Clorox stock three years ago.

FBI agents even came to the golf course to try to interview Mickelson. He referred them to his attorney, said he had done “absolutely nothing wrong” and that “I’m not going to walk around any other way.”

It would seem to be a major distraction for Mickelson.

Even though he hasn’t won in nearly a year, and he has dropped to No. 11 in the world ranking, he is the center of attention in the sand hills of North Carolina — especially with Tiger Woods still out of the game while recovering from back surgery.

Then again, it could be to Mickelson’s advantage to be at a place such as Pinehurst. The course doesn’t allow anyone to think about anything but the next shot.

“We have so many players when they have a lot of stuff swirling around them that use that four or five hours on the golf course as a sanctuary,” two-time U.S. Open

champion Andy North said.

“You can focus sometimes even better, which sound crazy, but it’s your place where no one can get to you. The phone can’t ring. No one can ask you questions about whatever it is. And you get out there and find your little space. And sometimes that creates a situation where a guy can play exceptionally well.”

The investigation has not been a big topic since Mickelson said repeatedly at the Memorial that he had done nothing wrong, was cooperating and would not talk about it until it was resolved.

There were no direct questions at his news conference Tuesday, only veiled references to coping with off-course distractions.

Barclays, one of his biggest sponsors, declined to comment on Mickelson.

KPMG, another major sponsor, said in a statement, “We have had a very strong relationship with Phil for a number of years, and we fully expect it to continue.

We have great respect for him.”

While Mickelson’s U.S. Open record is loaded with disappointment, he sees only

opportunity. To have been the runner-up six times — not to mention other U.S. Opens where he had a chance to win in the final hour — means he must be doing something right.

And he hasn’t lost his sense of humor.

“I feel as good about my game as I have all year,” Mickelson said, pausing before he added, “That’s not staying a lot because I haven’t played well all year.”

He also said an analysis of his close calls in the U.S. Open revealed that it rained during the week in five of those secondplace finishes.

“So I’m pulling for rain,” he said.

As for that other match? Mickelson carried the load as he and Rickie Fowler rallied from 3 down to tie the match, only for 20-year-old Jordan Spieth to make a 20-foot birdie on the 17th, and 21-year-old Justin Thomas to drill a tee shot on the 18th hole to set up a par for the win.

Another close call.

It’s a U.S. Open.

Mickelson should be used to that by now.

Spurs: James only one keeping Heat in game Continued from Page B-5 the first two games, looking frustrated while getting into foul trouble trying to defend James in Game 2. But he had his outside shot working early and the effect on the Spurs’ offense was obvious. He made his first six shots and finished 10 of 13 from the field.

LeBron James and Dwyane Wade had 22 points for the Heat, who host Game 4 on Thursday.

The last three NBA seasons ended in this building, the last two followed by Heat championship parades.

The Spurs nearly canceled the last one, building a fivepoint lead in the final halfminute of regulation of Game 6, a title seeming so certain that workers were already making preparations around the court.

But the Heat rallied to win

in overtime and took Game 7, leaving the Spurs with a summer to think about the one that got away.

They’re in good shape to get another chance.

With the league scrapped the 2-3-2 format for the NBA Finals —in which the lower seed played three consecutive home games — the Spurs would have a chance to wrap it up in San Antonio on Sunday in Game 5 if they can win Thursday.

Chris Bosh took only four points and scored nine points for the Heat, who for the second straight year will have to overcome a 2-1 finals deficit after being blown out in Game 3.

This rout came on their home floor, where they had been 8-0 this postseason and had won a franchise-record 11 in a row since the Spurs beat

them in Game 1 last year.

Manu Ginobili scored 11 for the Spurs, who dropped Game 2 thanks to some mistakes down the stretch, then rebounded with a level of ruthless execution that had never been seen before.

They inserted Boris Diaw into the lineup, countering Miami’s small lineup and creating more ball movement that clearly helped Leonard. The game got off to a crisp start, with the Spurs making their first five shots and Miami opening 4 for 4.

Turned out San Antonio was just getting started.

Coach Erik Spoelstra said he would keep communicating with James as he did in Game 2 to make sure there were no lingering problems from the cramps that forced him to miss the final minutes of the opener.

But there was no way he could rest James early because James was the only one keeping the Heat in the game. He had 14 of their first 20 points, but even James couldn’t keep up with the Spurs’ pace.

The Spurs “came out at a different gear than what we were playing at, and it just seemed we were on our heels the most part of the first half,” Spoelstra said.

Miami cut it 14 late in the first half, but the Spurs closed with a 9-2 burst to make it 71-50.

The Heat finally got into it in the third, running off 10 straight points to cut a 17-point deficit to 81-74 on a drive by Norris Cole, who had replaced an ineffective Mario Chalmers.

That was as close as Miami would get, as the Spurs pulled away in the fourth.

In Brief

Fuego rally, beat Triggers 10-7 The Santa Fe Fuego had one chance to overcome a deficit Tuesday night, and they used it to beat the host Trinidad Triggers 10-7 in a Pecos League baseball game.

Down 7-4 in the top of the ninth inning, the Fuego scored six runs to avoid the loss. The comeback started when catcher Tyler Cox brought in two runs on a single with bases loaded. Santa Fe (16-10) took the lead — its first of the game — when left fielder Eric Kozel hit another two-run single two batters later.

The Fuego added the finishing touches when middle infielders Omar Artsen and Craig Massey both knocked in a run before the end of the inning.

The Fuego travel to Las Vegas on Wednesday for a game with the Train Robbers before both teams head to Santa Fe for three games.

Topes lose to Express 7-5 First, the good news for the Albuquerque Isotopes.

Trayvon Robinson extended his hitting streak to seven games on Tuesday night. But it couldn’t stop the Round Rock Express from taking a 7-5 win in Pacific Coast League baseball at Isotopes Park. The loss is Albuquerque’s fourth in its last six games.

Round Rock did much of its damage in the second inning, scoring four runs to erase a 1-0 lead for Albuquerque (30-35).

Jared Hoying had a two-run home run to open the scoring for the Express, then Derek Lillibridge scored when he forced throwing errors by Isotopes catcher Johnny Monell and centerfielder Joc Pederson after he stole second base.

Robinson blasted his 10th homer of the season to lead off the Isotopes’ sixth to cut Round Rock’s lead to 6-4, but they could not get any closer.

Round Rock starter Miles Mikolas went five innings, allowing three runs (one earned) on seven hits for the win.

The two teams play Game 3 of the four-game set at 7:05 p.m.

WORLD CUP 2014

THE NEW MEXICAN Wednesday, June 11, 2014

Cup: Brazilians get into festive mood Continued from Page B-5 many, Italy, Argentina and the Netherlands, runner-up in 2010.

Brazil is trying to become the first nation to win the World Cup at home since France did it in 1998. The Brazilians were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the last two tournaments, to France in 2006 and the Netherlands in 2010.

A festive World Cup atmosphere has taken over Brazil in the run-up to the tournament despite the country’s preparation problems and the threats of protests. Brazilians had been slow to get into the World Cup mood, but now streets are being painted with the green and yellow colors and local flags are being displayed on windows of homes across the country.

The crowd support is one of the biggest reasons coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has been saying loud and clear that Brazil is obligated to win the World Cup at home. Players also don’t hide that they believe Brazil is the main title favorite.

“We know that we will have the fans behind us, and together I think we have a great chance of reaching our final goal, which is to win the World Cup,” Brazil starting midfielder Luiz Gustavo said.

Brazilian fans had been questioning the national team before last year’s Con-

federations Cup, but the title in the warm-up tournament was enough to bring the fans back on board.

That tournament also helped show that Brazil has a team capable of competing against the top football nations today. The victory came in a final against world champion Spain.

“The Confederations Cup allowed us to regain our confidence,” said Scolari, the coach when Brazil won its last world title in 2002. “Now we have to repeat that during the World Cup.” Brazil begins the tournament having won 15 of its last 16 matches, the only loss a 1-0 result at Switzerland in the first match after the Confederations Cup. Brazil will start the World Cup with the same lineup that won the Confederations Cup, with 22-year-old Barcelona striker Neymar leading the team.

Croatia, led by Real Madrid playmaker Luka Modric, will hope to pull off a monumental upset, but the team won’t be at full strength against the hosts. Coach Niko Kovac won’t have forward Mario Mandzukic, who was redcarded in the team’s final qualifier, and experienced midfielder Niko Kranjcar, who had to be dropped from the squad because of a late hamstring injury.

The heat will be on, and the U.S. is happy

By Ronald Blum

The Associated Press

SÃO PAULO — While some World Cup teams whine about withering weather and troublesome travel, American players say: Bring it on.

European teams worry they will wilt.

The United States considers cauldron-like climates a regular finishing touch, as if the Americans were a Baked Alaska flambé.

And if FIFA added a Road Warrior prize to the Golden Ball, Golden Boot and Golden Glove, the U.S. would be assured of taking home an award.

“When you talk about playing in the heat, the travel, it doesn’t bother us,” midfielder Michael Bradley said Tuesday. “And not only does it not bother us, it excites us to see that now the other teams are so worried about it.”

The Americans have the lengthiest firstround trek among the 32 teams at 8,800 air miles, chartering roundtrip flights from São Paulo to Natal (1,420 each way), Manaus (1,680) and Recife (1,300).

That’s quite a contrast to four years ago, where the U.S. had the shortest group-stage travel in South Africa. To reach their games, the Americans took bus rides from Irene to Rustenburg (62 miles each way), Johannesburg (24) and Pretoria (11) for a total of 194 miles. They needed to pack a weekender only once during the first round, burrowing at their base hotel for the second and third matches.

This year they’ll change cities and climates repeatedly. Tuesday’s training session at São Paulo Futebol Club started in a 62-degree temperature with a cooling drizzle, but the Americans’ games up north figure to be played in the mid-80s or higher.

And extreme humidity could make each stadium feel like a sauna.

Accustomed to an August-through-May club schedule in Europe, where players use gloves and fans insulate in thermals, some soccer officials fret. No European nation has won a World Cup played in the Americas, where Brazil has taken three titles, and

group stages.

Brazil

MatCh tO WatCh Brazil vs. Mexico. A pivotal match in this group. Teams tend to play it safe in the first match, opting to try to secure at least a point, before opening things up in the second. But most teams aren’t facing an opponent the caliber of Brazil or Mexico in their second game. Because each team’s last group match isn’t a walkover, it will be fascinating to see if they push to get the pivotal three points here. Can Mexico deal with Brazil’s physical play? Yes, they do play tough now.

FIFA world ranking: 4 How it qualified: Host country.

Best finish: Champions (1958, 1962, 1970, 1994, 2002) About the team: Brazil is the heavy favorite to win. If it does so, it may not be with the same flair of its past. Brazil features a stout defense led by Thiago Silva of Paris-Saint Germain and a strong midfield powered by Willian of Chelsea, among others.

Player you may know: Neymar.

He is another in a long line of prolific forwards to wear the canary yellow jersey.

Cameroon FIFA world ranking: 50 How it qualified: Defeated Tunisia in two-match playoff.

Best finish: Quarterfinals (1990) About the team: Defense has usually been the team’s issue in the World Cup but that may no longer be a problem. This team features several strong defenders like Nicolas N’Koulou and midfielders like Alex Song, but lack a consistent striker.

Player you may know: Samuel Eto’o. Once considered one of the world’s best strikers, he’s lost a step and doesn’t consistently play for Chelsea, but he can still pull off magic.

Croatia FIFA world ranking: 20 How it qualified: Defeated Iceland in two-match playoff.

Best finish: Semifinals (1998) About the team: Its red-and-white checkerboard jerseys are the coolest of the tournament, but it can also play.

It also wouldn’t be a surprise if Croatia fails to advance out of the first round.

Player you may know: Luka Modric. After struggling in his first year at Real Madrid, he found his footing and confidence and is now one of that team’s best players because of his pinpoint passing in the midfield.

Mexico FIFA world ranking: 19 How it qualified: Defeated New Zealand 9-3 in a two-match aggregate.

Best finish: Quarterfinals (1970, 1986) About the team: One of the hardest teams to predict because no one knows which team will arrive: the swashbuckling team that can tear apart opponents with intricate passing or the mentally fragile one that gives up when calls go against it.

Player you may know: Javier Hernandez. The Manchester United forward has all the talent, but he has had trouble getting onto the field.

Player you need to know: Giovani dos Santos. The attacking midfielder has the skills to be a world-class midfielder, as evidenced at short stints at Barcelona, Tottenham, Mallorca and Villarreal. But he has yet to stick with any of those teams. He tends to forget there are 10 other guys in green on the field, but he is capable of the bits of magic that can push a team past the

WhO WiLL aDvanCe? Brazil will win the group, taking all nine points. Mexico will take the second spot on goal-differential after trying with Croatia.

GROUP B

australia FIFA world ranking: 59 How it qualified: Second place, Asia Group B. Best finish: Round of 16 (2006).

About the team: In most other groups, Australia could make things interesting. In this group, however, the Socceroos’ chances of advancing aren’t good. The team has athleticism but, like the U.S., is missing that go-to scorer who will be needed.

Player you may know: Tim Cahill.

The midfielder, who plays for New York in MLS, is Australia’s top goal-scorer.

He is capable of snatching a point with his head or feet.

Player you need to know: Mile Jedinak. He has been one of the reasons that Crystal Palace was one of the surprise teams in the Premier League this year. The midfielder is steady on the ball and smart with his passes.

Chile FIFA world ranking: 13 How it qualified: Third place, South America.

Best finish: Semifinals (1962) About the team: This team likes to score. Defense? Not so much. They scored 29 goals during qualifying, but holes in the defense were exploited for 25 goals.

Player you may know: Alexis Sanchez. The Barcelona forward endured a rough start in Spain after signing from Udinese in 2011. But he is starting to heat up with 38 goals in 86 matches, including 18 through 32 matches this year.

Player you need to know: Arturo Vidal. The Juventus midfielder has 22 goals through 49 matches this year, an amazing total in the defensively tough Serie A.

Spain FIFA world ranking: 1 How it qualified: First in its qualifying group.

Best finish: Champions (2010) About the team: The most accomplished team in this year’s tournament.

Spain is the defending World Cup champ and the two-time defending champs of Europe (2008 and 2012). It can be argued its success is based on

Argentina and Uruguay two apiece.

Before the World Cup draw in December, England coach Roy Hodgson called the Amazon rain forest city of Manaus “problematic” and said “you have a better chance if you get one of the venues where the climate is kinder.”

“It’s going to be incredibly humid and hot,” Germany coach Joachim Loew said.

“We must get used to it, in training and preparing.”

The U.S. opens Monday with a 4 p.m.

MDT match against Ghana in Natal. The AccuWeather forecast calls for a daytime high in the mid-80s, dropping into the 70s in the evening with a couple showers possible.

The Americans next play in Manaus for a game against Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal on June 22. The extended forecast calls for temperatures in the high-80s that day.

The U.S. completes group play against three-time champion Germany in a 10 a.m.

familiarity. The majority of the starting lineup plays together for either Barcelona or Real Madrid, so they have an already-established chemistry other teams lack.

Players you may know: The duo of Andres Iniesta and Xavi are the puppet masters for Barcelona’s midfield, as well as for Spain’s. They are patient with the ball, never stop moving and can see runs into space develop before other players make their moves. The constant possession of the ball, coupled with hundreds of short passes, is known as “tiki-taka.”

netherlands FIFA world ranking: 15 How it qualified: First in its qualifying group.

Best finish: Runner-up (1974, 1978, 2010) About the team: The Netherlands is capable of beating any team. They are extremely deep at goalie, midfield and forward, but its defense is thin.

Player you may know: Arjen Robben. The Bayern Munich winger has arguably the best left foot in the world, but perhaps not the best set of eyes.

He sometimes dribbles too much and doesn’t incorporate the rest of a talented team into attacks. He seems to have learned how to use his skills in a team concept.

Player you need to know: Stefan de Vrij. The Feyenoord back is considered one of the best young players in the world and figures to be at the center of a bidding war this summer.

MatCh tO WatCh Spain vs. Netherlands. What better way to start Group B than a matchup between two of the world’s best teams? Netherlands lost to Spain 1-0 in the finals of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. It will be interesting to see if either team will go for the three points or if they will play conservatively to and grab the one point that comes with a tie.

WhO WiLL aDvanCe Spain and Netherlands. It would be fun to see Chile, with its attacking mindset, advance, but the group is mostly about defense. While Spain and Netherlands may not be as tough at the back as Italy or Germany, their possession-dominated game ensures that a strong line of defense isn’t always needed.

GROUP C

Colombia FIFA world ranking: 5 How it qualified: Second place, South America.

Best finish: Round of 16 (1990) About the team: One of the most balanced teams in the World Cup, Colombia is full of young talent. It is one of the dark horses to advance deep into the tournament Player you may know: Radamel Falcao. The Monaco forward is rehabbing a torn anterior cruciate injury in his left knee, but is expected to be healthy for the tournament. He is a prolific striker who could use a good World Cup as a springboard to an even bigger club in Europe.

Greece FIFA world ranking: 10 How it qualified: Defeated Romania in a two-match playoff.

Best finish: Never advanced past

temperatures are typically in the low-80s.

While that might be unfamiliar for natives of Munich and Mannheim, it’s rather routine for the red, white and blue.

“I lived 41/2 years in Houston, and that’s 100 degrees every single day with humidity plus,” defender Geoff Cameron said, “so if you can survive that, you can survive anything.”

Europeans complained about heat during the 1970 and ’86 World Cups in Mexico and were stunned by a heat wave in 1994 that turned matches into endurance tests at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas and the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California. Jurgen Klinsmann scored twice as defending champion Germany built a three-goal lead against South Korea, then held on for a 3-2 win.

Klinsmann, now the U.S. coach, learned from that and the February 2013 opener in the final round of World Cup qualifying, when the Americans went to Central America and wilted during the second half of a 2-1 loss.

About the team: The Greeks are consistently a head-scratching team.

They surprised the world by winning the European championships in 2004, but haven’t parlayed that success into anything more. They have a stout defense and tireless midfield; forwards who score lots of goals; but few have come in big matches.

Player you may know: Giorgos Karagounis. At 37, this will likely be the Fulham’s midfielder last big tournament. He’s tough and experienced.

ivory Coast FIFA world ranking: 21 How it qualified: Defeated Senegal in a two-game playoff.

Best finish: Never advanced past the group stage.

About the team: Ivory Coast is extremely talented, but has yet to put that talent together in the world’s biggest soccer tournament. Some of that is due to tough group draws.

Player you may know: Didier Drogba. Though 36, the Galatasaray forward is a world-class striker who is a nightmare for defenders because of his size, strength and intelligence.

Japan FIFA world ranking: 47 How it qualified: First place in its group.

Best finish: Round of 16 (2010) About the team: Japan has a disciplined team that features several creative players who can unlock defenses.

Forward and goalkeeper will remain question marks, particularly against Colombia and Ivory Coast.

Player you may know: Shinji Kagawa. The creative midfielder was an up-and-coming star at Borussia Dortmund before signing with Manchester United two years ago. Kagawa barely plays for the club, but is still one of the key players for country.

MatCh tO WatCh Colombia vs. Ivory Coast: The FIFA rankings don’t reflect it, but the teams in this group are so even, goal-differential could be the deciding factor for which two teams advance. Therefore this match, which could feature plenty of goals, could be the key.

WhO WiLL aDvanCe Ivory Coast and Colombia. Don’t be surprised if Japan sneaks in ahead of the Ivory Coast.

GROUP D

Costa Rica FIFA world ranking: 34 How it qualified: Second place in its group.

Best finish: Round of 16 (1990) About the team: Costa Rica is tough to beat at home but isn’t as formidable on the road, which makes this team a wild card in this group. The loss of forward Alvaro Saborio (foot fracture) really hurts its chances.

Player you may know: Bryan Ruiz.

The midfielder parlayed a successful stint in Holland into a move to Fulham in the Premier League. He was, at best, an average player there and moved back to Holland where defenses aren’t

as tough. The defenses will be tough in this group.

england FIFA world ranking: 11 How it qualified: First place in its group.

Best finish: Champions (1966) About the team: To be a fan of England is like being a fan of the Atlanta Braves. They constantly tease but rarely pull off a championship.

The team features world-class players Steven Gerrard and Wayne Rooney, but continues to struggle to figure out what style it wants to play. Things may change this year because, like Spain, several potential starters played together on Liverpool and their chemistry may help England develop a style.

Player you may know: Wayne Rooney. The Manchester United forward is one of the most prolific scorers in England’s history, but he’s also a man without a true position. He can pop up in a variety of odd places on the field.

italy FIFA world ranking: 9 How it qualified: First place in its group.

Best finish: Champions (1934, 1938, 1982, 2006) About the team: Italy, with a traditionally disciplined defense and patient style of play, is consistently built to win the World Cup. In addition to its four titles, it has twice finished as runner-up (1970, 1994). Despite the lack of success European teams have had in South America, Italy has enough depth to be a team to watch.

Player you may know: Gianluigi Buffon. The 36-year-old Juventus man is still considered one of the world’s best goalkeepers. He, along with midfielder Andrea Pirlo, is the heart of La Squadra Azzurra.

Uruguay FIFA world ranking: 6 How it qualified: Defeated Jordan in a two-game playoff.

Best finish: Champions (1930, 1950) About the team: Uruguay is one of world’s best teams because of the talent at striker in Luis Suarez, Edinson Cavani and Diego Forlan. But the team is more than scorers. Uruguay features a steady defense. It would like nothing more than to win the World Cup in the place where it won its second championship.

Player you may know: Suarez.

The Liverpool forward made headlines for all the wrong reasons the previous years (handball in the 2010 World Cup, racist remarks toward Manchester United defender Patrice Evra, biting Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic, etc.). But he blossomed into one of the world’s best players during the 2013-14 year when his 31 goals topped the Premier League.

MatCh tO WatCh Italy vs. Uruguay. A contrast in styles, featuring Uruguay’s world-class attack trying to unlock Italy’s worldclass defense. Italy may be hunting for points after opening with a tough match against England. Uruguay will likely be seeking three points after opening against Costa Rica.

WhO WiLL aDvanCe Italy and Uruguay. England struggles to score and melts in the heat, while Italy and Uruguay slide through.

hirty years ago, a coffeehouse was born.

In June 1984, the coffee wasteland that was Santa Fe woke up to the aromas of premium green beans roasted dark and lovingly brewed with clean mountain water wafting through the crisp high-altitude air.

If you followed those aromas, you would have been led to a tiny coffee shop near downtown called Ohori’s, where a woman named Susan Ohori was running the whole highly caffeinated show.

Ohori, herself, is a coffee purist. She drinks a moka pot full of dark fresh brew every morning, and she takes it unapologetically black. A Bay Area transplant, she felt that there was no good coffee to be had in Santa Fe, so she would bring in beans from Berkeley, Calif., for her morning cuppa.

And her standards were high. Ohori had briefly worked for Alfred Peet of San Francisco’s iconic Peet’s Coffee & Tea, who introduced fresh-roasted coffee to the U.S. and trained the founders of Starbucks and Seattle’s Best.

Originally, Ohori had intended only to sell Peet’s famous beans to a coffee-starved public, but when she contacted him, he responded that he preferred to make a trip to Santa Fe to train her to roast coffee herself. A famously exacting coffee guru, Peet, and his lessons, were far from gentle — Ohori admits she was brought to tears at the end of the first day of roasting. “That was a very intense process,” Ohori said, “and he was a very hard teacher. He was very demanding. And I spent all day with him just yelling at me: ‘You’re doing this wrong, that’s wrong, this is wrong, that’s wrong.’ At the end of the day, I just broke down and cried and I went home. The next day was better.”

But Ohori’s very first lesson was not in roasting; it was in the roaster itself. Peet insisted that Ohori take apart the entire apparatus and learn how to put it back together again; to fix it; and to maintain it. “And I am totally not a mechanical person,” Ohori laughed. “So he tore it apart and said, ‘You need to know how to take it apart and put it back together. This is wrong, this is wrong, this is wrong.’ ” There was some delay as they sent to Germany for replacement parts, but Peet came back out to Santa Fe when they arrived, and they soldiered on.

Ohori was a one-woman machine, roasting, delivering and selling to an ever-increasing clientele. She sold her coffee business in 2001 but still owns Casa, the folk art store located in the same building as the Pen Road location, and hosts Beyond Borders, a weekly world-music show on KSFR. Ohori sold the coffehouse to Larry Ayers, her accountant. It’s now run by Ayers, his daughter, Tai, and her husband, Sam Brinegar, who is their roaster. As new owners with old ties to the business, their interest was in changing as little as possible because, as they put it, “You don’t mess with what works.”

Ohori’s roasting style has always reflected the standards of Peet and Susan Ohori’s personal taste. This means fresh green beans, roasted very dark — a flavor signature that has both detrac-

Founded by Susan Ohori in June 1984, Ohori’s now has two locations — one on Pen Road and another at the Luna complex, above — which both serve coffee and espresso, pastries and coffee-shop culture to an ever-increasing clientele. PHOTOS BY CLYDE MUELLER/THE NEW MEXICAN

tors and zealous devotees. Coffee at Ohori’s is minimal, largely devoid of syrups and blended fluff in favor of clean, pure coffee. But as the business grew, it had to expand and evolve. Originally conceived as a place to buy retail coffee and serve brews on the go, Ohori’s now has two locations — one on Pen Road, which has a driveup window, and another at the Luna complex — which both serve coffee and espresso, pastries and coffee-shop culture to an ever-increasing clientele. There are no plans to franchise (freshness is paramount at Ohori’s), and you still can’t find Ohori’s coffee in a grocery store, because there’s no way for the company to guarantee how long it sits on the shelf.

As Ohori’s rounds the 30-year mark, some additions are in store for the offerings to keep up with changes in coffee culture. Ohori’s will now, for the first time, feature pour-over coffee, a method in which hot water is poured slowly over fresh-ground coffee through a filter, cup by cup. In addition, Ohori’s will add a new lighter roast to its arsenal, which will be selected at a tasting event from 9 a.m. to noon June 31, when free samples of a variety of light roasts will be voted on by customers. The coffeehouse also will begin offering buttered coffee, the newest Paleo diet trend: Coffee served with emulsified butter instead of milk that both tastes like sin and, according to some, convinces your body to burn excess fat.

Throughout the summer, Ohori’s will offer demonstrations and classes to celebrate its long tenure as Santa Fe’s original roaster, culminating with a 30th anniversary party from 4 to 6 p.m. Aug. 4 at the Luna complex store, 505 Cerrillos Road. The party will feature free music, coffee, desserts and even a beer featuring Ohori’s brew.

Tai Ayers and Brinegar feel that they’ve found a balance between the old and new, appealing to changing tastes while still staying true to the freshness and simplicity of Ohori’s original ethos. “You can still get your cup of coffee for under $2, but if you feel like taking your time, you can wait for the pour-over,” Ayers said. “It’s the perfect Ohori’s way.”

Picture a strawberry cheesecake: white and creamy cake on the bottom, bright red berries on top. Maybe the berries are fresh and ripe and leak a little of their tart juice onto the dense cake below. More likely, the berries are sealed in shiny, syrupy goop. Either way, you get a separation of strawberries and cream, with the two playing off each other in juicycreamy succession.

It’s a perfectly delightful tradition (or at least the fresh-berry kind is), but it’s not the only way to go.

And in this version, I go elsewhere.

Instead of keeping distinct layers of red and white, I purée them into pink. It becomes a dessert that’s less about contrast and more about integration. And it also reaches that peak strawberry-season goal of packing as much berry as possible into each luscious bite.

To keep the berry flavor as fresh and bright as possible, I opt for a cheesecake set with gelatin rather than baked with eggs. It does need several hours in the fridge, but the upside is that you can make it days ahead.

Along with the usual cream cheese, I add some mild, fresh goat cheese to the batter.

It’s a trick I learned from pastry chef Claudia Fleming. The goat cheese tamps down the sweetness and adds an earthy bite that goes nicely with berries of all kinds.

DOUBLE STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE Time: 11/2 hours, plus at least 8 hours’ chilling, makes 10 to 12 servings For the crust: 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick), at room temperature 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar 2 tablespoons honey 1 cup all-purpose flour ¼ cup whole-wheat flour 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder ¾ teaspoon kosher salt ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon For the filling: ½ cup dry red wine 1 envelope (2¼ teaspoons) powdered gelatin 1 pound cream cheese, cut into small pieces, at room temperature ⅔ cup sugar 1 cup (8 ounces) fresh goat cheese, broken into small pieces, at room temperature 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and coarsely chopped, plus several pretty whole or sliced strawberries for serving Preparation: In the bowl of an electric mixer or a food processor, cream together butter and brown sugar until smooth, about 1 minute. Beat in honey.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flours, cocoa, salt and cinnamon. With mixer running on low speed or using the

pulse button on the food processor, add dry ingredients to butter mixture in two batches. Scrape dough onto a sheet of plastic wrap. Flatten into a disk and chill for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Place dough round between two sheets of parchment or wax paper. Working quickly, roll out dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch. If dough becomes sticky, chill in refrigerator until firm. Transfer dough to an 8- or 9-inch springform pan. Press into bottom of pan and 2/3 up the sides (don’t worry if the sides aren’t even). Prick bottom with a fork. Refrigerate 20 minutes.

Heat oven to 325 degrees. Place pan on a baking sheet and transfer it to oven; bake until crust is golden and dry to touch, about 25 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.

Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Put red wine in a small saucepan and sprinkle gelatin on top. Let rest for 5 minutes, until absorbed. Put pan over low heat and stir until gelatin dissolves. Don’t allow gelatin to boil. Let cool.

In a food processor or electric mixer, combine cream cheese, sugar and goat cheese; blend until smooth. Stop once or twice to scrape down sides of bowl. Add chopped berries and gelatin mixture and blend until incorporated (berries will break down to a purée, which is fine). Scrape mixture into cooled crust. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, at least 6 hours or overnight. Top with sliced or whole strawberries before serving.

The city of owls Have a hoot of a time in the English town of Leeds

By Will Hawkes

Special to The Washington Post

onfetti blows between my feet as I climb the steps at Leeds Town Hall.

A wedding has just taken place, and the newlyweds are posing for a few quick family snaps, all smiles and easy laughter. I allow myself to wallow in a little reflected joy; on a sunny day, it seems to me, there can’t be many better places to have gotten married.

A sudden gust of wind brings me back to reality. I crane my neck upward, squinting toward the building’s magnificent squaredomed tower, shielding my eyes from the sun.

Where are they? They should be right there, slap-bang in the middle of this partclassical, part-baroque 1850s structure. But I’m damned if I can see them.

Then I spot what I’m looking for. They’re a long way up, on the city’s crest, hiding behind a flagpole: three dark stone owls, one smaller than the other two, all of them standing bolt upright, gazing out across the Headrow, Leeds’ central thoroughfare.

Owls? Yes, owls. Where less imaginative cities have lions or bears or other fearsome creatures, Leeds has owls. They’re all over the place. As I wander around the elegant, compact city center, built on textile wealth during the Industrial Revolution, I spot them everywhere. They’re on civic buildings, hotels, tapestries. There are golden owls, bridge owls, owls on plinths, owls in shopping malls.

Few of them, though, have as good a view as those three on Town Hall, and it’ll be even better July 5. That’s when the Tour de France begins. As a banner on Town Hall proudly announces, the 2014 edition of France’s world-famous cycle race will start here in Leeds, an English city in the heart of what may well be the most English county of them all: Yorkshire.

A proud day for Leeds. But for the moment, at least, I’m interested in owls more than bicycles. That’s why I have an alreadydog-eared copy of the Leeds Owl Trail map in my hand, to help me seek out other examples of the bird. The trail, created by artists Clifford Stead and Antonia Stowe, was launched in 2009 and is intended to educate locals and visitors alike about the city’s rich heritage.

I start in City Square, a five-minute walk from Leeds Town Hall. It’s an impressive spot. Around me is a fascinating collection of British sculpture: There’s the horseback bronze Black Prince, all brooding intimidation; eight nymphs; and statues of local worthies, including Joseph Priestley, the Leeds native credited with discovering oxygen.

There’s also the General Post Office, a handsome Victorian structure now occupied by apartments and bars. But I can’t see any owls — not at the moment, anyway.

I head off to Quebec Street, to my first stop, at a hotel called — understandably — Quebecs. Built in 1891, this used to be the Liberal Club, and there’s a gorgeous stained-glass window wrapped around the main staircase at the back.

At the heart of the window is a small white owl, again standing atop the city’s crest.

There’s an obvious question: How did the owl become such a symbol of Leeds? “It’s the Savile family coat of arms,” Stead tells me when I put it to him. The Saviles were Normans who were given vast tracts of Yorkshire, including Leeds, after William the Conqueror’s 1066 invasion of England. “Leeds adopted it. Why the Savile family had owls on their crest is not entirely clear.” It doesn’t seem to matter.

Not all the owls are Victorian. I wander up to Trinity Leeds, a shopping center that covers a large swath of the city core. Opened in 2013, this glass-roof consumerist palace houses two pieces of sculpture: Equus Altus, a 16-foot-tall, two-ton statue of a pack horse carrying wool, a nod to the city’s textile tradition, and, rather less prominently, an owl, perched high above the tumult, its golden wings spread as if ready to take flight.

At the Corn Exchange, a magnificent Victorian oval hall with a feel of the Roman Pantheon, the owls appear to hold up the domed roof. Two minutes away, at Kirkgate City Markets (where a cherished British department store, Marks & Spencer, was born; the company recently opened a new stall in the market to celebrate this fact), owls adorn the sturdy Corinthian columns.

gentle murmur of contentment.

It’s full, but not uncomfortably so, and I find a seat and a small table. Like all the best pubs, it offers plenty of human entertainment. With a pint of locally brewed, gently bitter Kirkstall Pale Ale and a steak pie in front of me, I watch an elderly gentleman — complete with tweed jacket and flamboyant moustache — make his way slowly toward the stairs that lead up to the toilets.

He pauses when he reaches them to allow another, more sprightly, customer to go first.

“Cheers, our kid!” this customer, approximately 50 years his junior, thanks him.

Good humor is part of daily life here.

Later, I wander up to Leeds Museum, where the city’s story is told in impressive detail.

There’s a mock-up of a back-to-back terraced house, railway paraphernalia and plenty of items celebrating the city’s textile heritage.

My eye is drawn toward an exhibit titled What Makes You Proud of Leeds Today?

Responses have been scribbled in pencil and attached to the exhibit. The best reads: “I love Leeds’ bearded guys [great quality].”

The meaning may be obscure (is it the beards or the guys that are great quality?), but the humor is obvious. uuu

The next morning, I’m out of bed early for a stroll along the Leeds-Liverpool Canal.

It’s another sunny day, and there’s a regular stream of bicycles, even if the traffic on the canal itself — which reached Leeds in 1777 — is a bit on the thin side.

It’s 20 minutes before I arrive at the Leeds Industrial Museum at Armley Mills. Once the world’s largest woolen mill, it’s full of dark, intricate machinery that looks designed to injure children. The museum is a salutary reminder of what life was like for most of the population in Britain’s supposed glory days: grim and short. Nonetheless, it’s hard not to be impressed by the story of Leeds’ rise to prominence as the British capital of readymade clothing. I was impressed to learn that, at one time, this city produced nearly half of all suits worn by British men.

I chew on that nugget of information as I stroll back into town, clad largely in items produced outside the U.K. The ready-to-wear market may not be what it once was, but Leeds appears to have absorbed the blow.

There’s a quiet confidence here: The tourist office at the train station bears a sign reading “Leeds: Cultural Capital of the North.”

It reminds me of a line in one of the best

recent books about Leeds. Promised Land weaves together the story of the city, its invariably in-crisis football club and its Jewish population. Author Anthony Clavane, a sportswriter at the British newspaper the Sunday Mirror, writes about a sign that hung in the city’s elegant railway station when he was growing up in the 1970s: “Leeds, the Promised Land delivered.”

But what of Leeds today? “At its best, Leeds is ambitious. Look at the Town Hall, which for me is the best building in Britain,” Clavane tells me. “There’s the architecture, the heritage, that sense of wanting to transcend its limitations, as in Billy Liar” — the 1959 novel by Leeds author Keith Waterhouse.

“It’s as strong culturally as Manchester and London, in terms of tradition and history, but its belief hasn’t been as strong. Leeds needs to believe in itself more.”

It’s an interesting point: Leeds doesn’t get as much attention nationally as some of its northern rivals. Clavane believes that, for example, more should be made of the Leeds origins of the group of working-class writers like Waterhouse who emerged from the city in the 1950s.

I suspect that Leeds’ problem — if you can call it that — is the strength of the Yorkshire identity. It’s an extraordinarily proud county.

Britons from elsewhere joke that Tykes, as Yorkshire folk are known for reasons unclear, believe that they’ve got the best of everything: the friendliest people, the best beer, the most successful cricket team, the tastiest fish and chips.

My time in Leeds is running out, I realize as I finish my lunch, but there are still a few owls to spot. The map tells me that there’s one on the Met Hotel, on King Street. I can’t see it — this is becoming a theme — so I pop inside. The concierge helpfully gives me directions to the back of the building, where I find the owls above the employees’ entrance.

Then, on Boar Lane, I step into the Bourse, where a man on a cigarette break points out an elegant owl carved into the building’s elaborate Victorian stone decoration.

Finally, I retrace my steps to City Square.

Taking a last look at the post office, where the tables belonging to the ground-floor bar are beginning to fill up with after-work drinkers, I notice a pair of stone eyes inspecting me from above one of the main doors. It’s an owl, of course. You can’t escape them in Leeds, even if you wanted to.

GRAND CANYON, Ariz. — The drive to the Grand Canyon’s South Rim is easy enough. Get to Flagstaff and it’s only about 90 miles across Arizona’s high country.

But why take a car when you can ride a train, especially one like the Grand Canyon Railway?

Traveling down the same tracks as the pre-automobile original, the Grand Canyon Railway is like a twohour trip through history, a scenic, informative and entertaining ride from a historic Route 66 town to one of world’s greatest natural wonders.

“One of our customers described it as more than just a train ride,” said John Lovely, conductor for the Grand Canyon Railway. “We give you an experience coming to the Grand Canyon, then going home.”

When the Grand Canyon Railway was established in 1901, it immediately became the most popular route to the canyon’s South Rim, smoother and less dusty than rickety stagecoaches.

The railway opened the canyon to the entire world, ushering in millions of tourists to one of the seven natural wonders of the world. The railway carried countless dignitaries through the years, including U.S. presidents Taft, Eisenhower and both Roosevelts, along with kings and queens, actors and actresses.

Once the automobile era began, interest in the train waned. It shut down in 1968.

In 1989, Max and Thelma Biegert sunk their life savings into resurrecting the railway and restoring depots at the starting point in Williams and at the Grand Canyon village.

Carrying 225,000 riders a year, the Grand Canyon Railway is now once again a popular route to the South Rim, a throwback to a bygone era accentuated

by Wild West characters and musicians who tell stories and sing songs during the ride.

“It’s a much more entertaining ride than just driving in your car,” said Bruce Brossman, Arizona regional director of sales and marketing for Xanterra Parks and Resorts.

Starting in Williams, the last Route 66 town to be bypassed by Interstate 40, the train travels 65 miles to the village of Grand Canyon, with about 2,000 people at the South Rim of the canyon.

The train has a variety of cars, from the 1923 Harriman-style coach cars to glass-domed cars and a luxury parlor with private bar. The fare includes fruit, Champagne toast on the way back. A cafe car has food and drinks for purchase.

The train travels from the Ponderosa pine forests surrounding Williams across the high desert plains, then climbs to the piñons of Grand Canyon National Park.

Along the way, there are views of the 12,000-foot San Francisco Peaks, the highest point in Arizona, and wildlife, including antelope, wild turkey, bald eagles, coyotes, skunks, bobcats and mountain lions.

Before boarding in Williams, riders are treated to a Wild West shootout in a corral next to the depot.

Once the train starts rolling, the conductor and attendants tell stories and provide facts about the train, the canyon and towns at both ends of the line. Wild West and Native American musicians stop into each car to perform, and just so you’re prepared, there’s a train robbery on the way back to Williams.

if you go Grand Canyon Railway:www.thetrain.com. Departs Williams, Ariz., for the South Rim of the Grand Canyon daily at 9:30 a.m., returning at 3:30 p.m.

Getting there: Williams, Ariz., is about three hours northwest of Phoenix, 30 miles west of Flagstaff on Interstate 40.

Cost: Roundtrip train tickets start at $62 for Pullman Class; up to $209 for Luxury Parlor. Hotel and train packages start at $206.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Sister could be an animal hoarder

Dear Annie: After my parents died, my sister, “Estelle,” moved into our old family home. Three siblings own the house, but Estelle and her husband have lived there for the past six years, rent-free.

There were always a lot of cats in our neighborhood, and my mother used to put out food for them. Estelle now does the same, and it seems every cat in the area has migrated to our property.

There are at least 30. My sister has named them all and spent a fair amount of money on veterinary bills. Worse, she now lets the cats inside the house, and they are everywhere. The backyard is one big litter box. Her husband doesn’t care. He’s at his office all day.

Estelle spends her entire day feeding and cleaning up after these cats. I worry that they will pick up some disease from the skunks and raccoons that hang around the yards. I recently noticed that she has covered the cooktop, and I don’t think she uses it anymore. She showed me a picture of a dozen cats roaming over the kitchen table. She thought it was delightful.

I have talked to both of my sisters about giving the cats to a shelter, but they refuse. I know it costs a lot of money to feed and house these cats, and Estelle doesn’t have a lot. I guess I enable her, because I often give her money. I feel like a pushover, and my husband resents it. It’s hard to visit her and too expensive to stay in motels and eat out every night.

I think Estelle is depressed. She complains about feeling gloomy.

Her children rarely visit. When I think of my old homestead, it makes me sad. It’s as if my family home was stolen from me. What can I do? — No Cat Lover Dear No: Estelle seems to be an animal hoarder. We are surprised her husband isn’t more bothered by this, and perhaps you could enlist his help in limit-

ing the presence of the cats. If you believe Estelle is not taking proper care of the cats that are living with her, you can report the situation to the ASPCA. You also could tell Estelle that you are worried about her health and the condition of the family home. Otherwise, unless you and your other sister decide to sell the house, your choice is simply whether or not to visit and how often.

Dear Annie: A young female member of my family has gotten fat, and I asked her the reason for the change. Now she won’t speak to me. Everyone says I made a mistake, because no one should ever ask a woman why she is obese. I care about this young woman, and that is why I put the question to her. I don’t want her to grow as big as another member of my family, that’s all. — Concerned Old Man in West Hills Dear Concerned: It is rude to ask anyone why they are fat (or skinny, short, tall, old or any number of intrusive personal questions). What exactly do you expect them to say? You may have meant well, but your approach was insensitive. People who are obese are quite aware of the fact. We suggest you apologize and say you are simply worried about her. Then change the subject.

Dear Annie: I totally agree with “Just One More Day,” whose family members have all died, and she finds it difficult to listen to co-workers gripe about their relatives.

My mother and three sisters have passed away, and I am only 36. I live next door to my 82-yearold dad and treasure my time with him. My only brother lives almost 3,000 miles away, but we make sure to call each other regularly and visit once a year.

Families need to stop holding grudges. — Nicole in Pennsylvania
