State exchange denies insurers details about working poor
Investigators looking for clues as conflicting information surfaces By Thomas Fuller
The New York Times
SEPANG, Malaysia — More than 48 hours after Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 vanished, the mysteries over its fate have only multiplied. The Beijing-bound plane made no distress call, officials said, and the Malaysian authorities suggested it might have begun to turn back to Kuala Lumpur in midflight before it disappeared. Despite an intensive international search effort in the waters along its scheduled route, there were no confirmed sightings of the plane’s wreckage. And electronic booking records showed that the two passengers who were traveling on stolen passports bought their tickets from the same Thai travel agency. The seeming security lapse, which Interpol publicly criticized, might have had nothing to do with what happened to the jet and its 239 passengers and crew. Investigators said they were ruling nothing out, including a catastrophic mechanical failure, pilot error, or both. But by late Sunday, the lack of answers — or even many clues — to the plane’s disappearance added to the misery of family members left behind. With Malaysian officials refusing to release many details of their investigation and sometimes

sewer line to install a new liner. And along Palace Avenue, they were working on new sidewalks, retaining walls and planters. Nenninger said carpets are going down now in the 182-room hotel, and furniture will be delivered in about two weeks. With 150 to 200 people on site, including contractors and subcontractors, Nenninger said, “It’s all hands on deck.” He said the hotel is close to signing a lease with a third party for operation of the restaurant, which will be accessible from Palace Avenue. Before the new hotel opens, Drury expects to do some cleanup of the exterior of Marian Hall, which got a new roof last November. In a later phase of the project, the brick building is scheduled to become a new boutique hotel. In about six weeks, maybe longer, work will begin on a mostly brick promenade that will connect the hotel with Cathedral Park.
The New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange has refused to hand over personal information about thousands of the state’s working poor to commercial insurance companies amid privacy concerns. While the population in question toiled at jobs that pay just above the poverty line, the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange Board recently debated whether to share what it knows about them — names, home addresses and phone numbers — with insurance companies that want to sell them policies. Lawyers for the health exchange deemed the data proprietary and slammed the door on the insurers’ request, Debra Hammer, spokeswoman for the exchange, said late last week. “We are not allowed to share that information directly with them,” she said. The policies of about 10,400 people formerly insured under the low-cost State Covered Insurance program were canceled when it was discontinued in January, and they make too much money to qualify for Medicaid. They have been referred by the New Mexico Human Services Department to the state’s online insurance marketplace created under the federal Affordable Care Act, commonly referred to as “Obamacare.” A family of three with an annual household income of $36,620, or a household of four with $44,100 in yearly earnings, qualified for the State Covered Insurance program, for example. The Human Services Department shared its list of people formerly enrolled in the State Covered Insurance program with the exchange, which intends to market directly to them through mailed literature and phone calls. During the most recent meeting of the exchange board on Feb. 28, board member Dr. Martin Hickey lobbied for the release of contact information to the insurers. “My sense is that were the carriers able to also have that information so that they could make direct contact, you’d have many more people signing up … ,” said Hickey, chief executive officer of New Mexico Health

rury Hotels is hiring staff for its new Drury Plaza Hotel Santa Fe, which is expected to open this summer at the old St. Vincent Hospital site downtown. Project development manager Brian Nenninger said Thursday that the new general manager, Tauseen Malik, is accepting applications in his office in the old Marian Hall on Palace Avenue. The hotel is hiring for all positions, including janitorial and front-desk jobs. Nenninger said he expects the hotel to employ about 50 people, and its restaurant will need an additional 35 or 40. The hotel is accepting reservations for rooms and events beginning Aug. 1, but Nenninger said the hotel likely will open a couple of months before that if work continues on schedule.

Santa Fe National Forest to update management plan Public invited to attend workshops, meetings By Staci Matlock

Santa Fe National Forest is overhauling its land management plan under a new national agency rule that officials hope will keep the public more involved in decisions, cost less money and foster quicker actions to make forests resilient to climate change. The existing 260-page management plan guides actions such as how many trees can be harvested, where vehicles can go, what

trails should be maintained and how wildlife should be protected. The new plan needs to take into account a new set of circumstances affecting the forest, such as climate change, ongoing drought, massive wildfires and competing human uses. The Santa Fe National Forest will start the process of reworking the plan at a daylong workshop Tuesday at the National Guard Armory, 705 Industrial Park Road, in Española. Another workshop is scheduled Wednesday at Santa Fe Community College, 6401 Richards Ave. The workshops, conducted by a group of people with expertise in community collaboration, will involve presentations, as

Bill would regulate California pot shops By Lisa Leff
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — Law and order may soon be coming to the Wild West of weed. A California lawmaker has introduced legislation to regulate the state’s free-wheeling medical marijuana industry — the farmers that grow the drug, the hundreds of storefront shops that sell it and especially the doctors who write recommendations allowing people to use it. The state in 1996 was the first to authorize marijuana use for health purposes — there are now 20. But to this day, no one knows how many dispensaries and patients California has or what conditions pot is being used to treat because the loosely worded law did not give government agencies a role in tracking the information. The bill introduced by state Sen. Lou Correa marks a milestone not only because it would provide significant state oversight of the multi-billion dollar industry for the first time, but because it is likely to get serious consideration in Sacramento after years of inaction. Senate Bill 1262 is the brainchild of the California Police Chiefs Association and the League of California Cities, two politically influential groups that have stood in the way of previous efforts to legitimize pot growers and dispensaries by subjecting them to state control and taxation. “This legislation seems counterintuitive, but we polled our membership, and over 90 percent of the chiefs felt that, regardless of how you felt about the marijuana issue itself, there needed to be a responsible public safety approach to this,” said Covina Police Chief Kim Raney, president of the chiefs association.

LILING, China — The local Chinese official remembers the panic he felt in Room 109. He had refused to confess to bribery he says he didn’t commit, and his Communist Party interrogators were forcing his legs apart. Zhou Wangyan heard his left thigh bone snap, with a loud “ka-cha.” The sound nearly drowned out his howls of pain. “My leg is broken,” Zhou told the interrogators. According to Zhou, they ignored his pleas. China’s government is under strong pressure to fight rampant corruption in its ranks, faced with the anger of an increasingly prosperous, well-educated and Internet-savvy public. However, the party’s methods for extracting confessions expose its 85 million members and their families to the risk of abuse. Experts estimate at least several thousand people are secretly detained every year for weeks or months under an internal system that is separate from state justice.
young person who has taken their life?” the task force’s cochairman asked. All 15 raised their hands. “That floored me,” West said. There is an image that Byron Dorgan, co-chairman of the task force and a former senator from North Dakota, can’t get out of his head. On the Spirit Lake Nation in North Dakota years ago, a 14-year-old girl named Avis Little Wind hanged herself after lying in bed in a fetal position for 90 days. Her death followed the suicides of her father and sister. “She lay in bed for all that time, and nobody, not even her school, missed her,” said Dorgan, a Democrat who chaired the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs. “Eventually she got out of bed and killed herself. Avis Little Wind died of suicide because mental-health treatment wasn’t available on that reservation.” Indian youth suicide cannot be looked at in a historical vacuum, Dorgan said. The agony on reservations is directly tied to a “trail of broken promises to American Indians,” he said, noting treaties dating back to the 19th century that guaranteed but largely didn’t deliver health care, education and housing. When he retired after 30 years in Congress, Dorgan founded the Center for Native American Youth at the Aspen Institute to focus on problems facing young Indians, especially the high suicide rates. “The children bear the brunt of the misery,” Dorgan said, “But there is no sense of urgency by our country to do anything about it.”
AURORA, Colo. — If the apparent slow death of immigration legislation has any political repercussions this year, they probably will be felt in the subdivisions, shopping centers and ethnic eateries wrapped around Denver’s southern end. U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman represents this fast-changing district. He’s among a few vulnerable Republican members in line to be targeted by immigrant rights advocates if the House doesn’t pass an immigration bill before the November election that would offer legal status to millions of people who entered the U.S. illegally or overstayed their visas. The issue is no easy solution for Democrats needing to gain 17 seats to win back the House majority. Democratic campaign officials are focusing on about two dozen GOP-held seats where immigration could be a factor, but they rank only nine in the top tier of possible pickups.
Woman says general who assaulted her was ambitious FORT BRAGG, N.C. — The Army captain who has accused Brig. Gen. Jeffrey A. Sinclair of sexually assaulting her during their three-year relationship was an ambitious soldier with plans to make the military her career, much like the boss she loved and admired. Stirred by the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks to leave college and join the military, she signed up with the Army, learned the in-demand language of Arabic and showed a laser focus in trying to carve out a reputation as a soldier who could be counted on in the toughest of situations. Her stunning allegations that Sinclair, a rising star revered by both his superiors as well as those he commanded on the battlefield, has put both of them — and the three-year affair they both admit to — under the microscope at a time when Congress and the Pentagon grapple with how to best deal with cases of sexual impropriety within the military ranks.
Mexican government kills drug capo supposedly slain in 2010 MEXICO CITY — Mexico’s government confirmed late Sunday that the leader of the Knights Templar Cartel was killed in an early-morning shootout with troops despite being declared dead by authorities in 2010. Tomas Zeron, head of the criminal investigation unit for the federal Attorney General’s Office, said the identity of Nazario Moreno Gonzalez had been confirmed 100 percent by fingerprints, but added that tests would continue. The Mexican military had been tracking Moreno and marines and soldiers confronted him in Timbuscatio, a town in the remote mountains of the western farming state of Michoacan, his cartel’s home base. Officials said the troops fired to respond to an “aggression” as they tried to make an arrest. The Associated Press

Prime Minister of Ukraine Fate of more than 250 missing to meet with Obama in U.S. Ukrainians remains uncertain The New York Times
By Anthony Faiola and Carol Morello The Washington Post
KIEV, Ukraine — The head of Ukraine’s new pro-Western government will meet with President Barack Obama this week, the White House announced Sunday, as a defiant Russia took further steps to consolidate its hold on the Crimean Peninsula. The announcement of Wednesday’s meeting in Washington with Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk came as proRussian forces extended their reach in Crimea, surrounding a border post in the far west and blocking Ukrainian TV broadcasts to the heavily Russianspeaking region, which lies more than 400 miles southeast of the Ukrainian capital. There were reports of more troop movements into Crimea, with officials in Kiev estimating that 18,000 pro-Russian forces had fanned out across the region, which is about the size of Massachusetts. A whirlwind of diplomacy continued Sunday — with Russian President Vladimir Putin speaking to German Chancellor Angela Merkel and British Prime Minister David Cameron — but there was no sign that Putin was willing to budge. The Yatsenyuk visit was announced Sunday by Tony Blinken, Obama’s deputy national security adviser. “What we’ve seen is the president mobilizing the international community in support of Ukraine to isolate Russia for its actions in Ukraine, and to reassure our allies and partners,” Blinken said on NBC’s Meet the Press. Raising concerns of unrest beyond Crimea, local news media and Russia’s Interfax news agency reported that hundreds of activists brandishing Russian flags had broken into a government building in the eastern Ukrainian city of Luhansk. They reportedly

ally came to their rescue. Ten pro-Ukrainian activists were detained but later released, he said. At least one other was still in the hospital, Belotserkovets said, and one was unaccounted for. Russia held out a financial carrot to Crimea, offering $1.1 billion in support if the peninsula voted in favor of joining Russia in a March 16 referendum. That vote was called by pro-Russian lawmakers who seized control of Crimea’s parliament on Feb. 27. In a phone call with Putin, Merkel called the planned referendum “illegal” and urged Putin to de-escalate the situation, according to a German government spokesman. Blinken said Sunday that if the vote favors annexing Crimea to Russia, “we won’t recognize it, and most of the world won’t either.” Putin also spoke with Cameron, who continued a push for the Russian leader to support a contact group that could arrange direct talks between him and the new government in Kiev, according to a spokeswoman at the British prime minister’s office. But the Kremlin’s news service said Putin stressed that “the steps being taken by the legitimate Crimean authorities are based on international law and aim to protect the legitimate interests of the population of the Crimea.”
forced the mayor to write a resignation letter and raised the Russian flag over the building. The incursion occurred two days after a similar protest in the eastern city of Donetsk was put down by authorities loyal to the new government in Kiev. But Crimea remained the core of concern. According to a spokeswoman for the Ukrainian coast guard, most Ukrainian broadcasts in the region were jammed beginning mid-afternoon Sunday. The only Ukrainian TV programming that could be seen by a reporter in Sevastopol was on two channels, one showing movies and the other soccer. On Sunday, Sevastopol — home of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet — was awash in Russian flags as the rest of Ukraine was celebrating the 200th birthday of national hero and poet Taras Shevchenko. Matrons walking down the street in woolen coats had Russian flag ribbons tied to the straps of their purses. Children skated through squares wearing armbands with the tricolor stripes of the Russian flag. Some of those who tried to show their Ukrainian pride paid a price. Several people at a pro-Ukrainian rally were beaten up by pro-Russian activists, said Dima Belotserkovets, a pro-Ukrainian activist. He said he and others were kicked and punched until police eventu-

Though Fahim was at the center of Karzai’s government, the two shared a tumultuous history. In the mid-1990s, Mohammad Qasim Fahim when Fahim was in charge of the Afghan intelligence service after the fall of the Soviet-backed regime, he ordered the arrest of Karzai, then the deputy foreign minister, on suspicion of spying for a rival faction within the government. The future president managed to escape when a rocket hit the prison where he was being held. Like many, Fahim was catapulted to power by the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan. He had come to lead the Northern Alliance, a group of militias struggling against the Taliban, after assassins for al-Qaida killed the coalition’s founder, Ahmad Shah Massoud,

that some detainees ended up at police stations or jails where officers were either neutral or sympathetic to the opposition. But the same characteristics of an overburdened prisonerintake system meant that detainees were scattered across the region, opening the possibility for police abuse. That has also made a full accounting difficult. One macabre story, common in Independence Square, is that 50 opposition members being treated in a hastily organized medical aid station in the Trade Union building were killed and burned beyond recognition by the fire that gutted the building. This tale is largely false, people involved in the searches said. A few people did die in the blaze, they said, but the number of victims was six or fewer. Among those lost in the fire was Volodymyr Topij, 59, from Vyshnya, for whom at least one missing-person circular was still posted in the opposition encampment. Topij’s remains were identified last week. His body was escorted home for burial. A more sinister whisper on the street is that the authorities, to mask widespread police crimes, arranged for the cremation of more than 100 bodies of those they killed. Euromaidan SOS has investigated these claims, and Selyk said they also appear false.

just before the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The alliance’s forces were embattled and outgunned, and Fahim’s position as their leader was hardly secure. But by the end of that month, the United States had turned Fahim into its first proxy in the fight against the militants, and CIA operatives were giving him backpacks stuffed with dollars as American jets bombed the Taliban government’s forces. Within a year, Fahim had parlayed his ties to the United States into a dominant role in the nascent Afghan government. He soon solidified his reputation for violently taking on rivals and critics and began building a vast patronage network that would secure his standing and enrich his family, officials said. “Whatever you think of him, you need someone like Fahim,” an Afghan official said. “He’s the muscle who can bring the Northern Alliance types into line.”
In all, 661 people have been reported missing since protests began last December.

KABUL, Afghanistan — Vice President Mohammad Qasim Fahim of Afghanistan, a formidable power broker and former warlord who played a crucial role in ousting the Taliban and shaping the political order that followed, died Sunday, less than a month before Afghans are to elect a new leader. Fahim, who was said to be either 56 or 57, died of a heart attack, according to a close friend and political ally, Maulavi Ata ul Rahman Salim. His death created a rift in the Afghan power structure, removing a crucial player from the factional and ethnic landscape as well as Cabinet politics. Fahim was a foremost leader of the country’s ethnic Tajik minority, and was a powerful and early voice in bringing the support of northern warlords to President Hamid Karzai and helping keep the peace with Afghan Pashtuns. At the same time, he faced persistent accusations of corruption and human rights abuses. “It is with deep sadness that we learn of the passing away of Marshal Mohammad Qasim Fahim,” Karzai’s office said, declaring three days of national mourning.

exchange: Info access could help uninsured, insurers argue Continued from Page A-1

Drury: Hotel, restaurant will create 85-90 jobs Continued from Page A-1 The promenade will be lined with crab-apple trees, Nenninger said. In addition to the four-star, full-service hotel (free hot breakfasts, popcorn and soda in the lobby, wireless Internet), the project includes a conference center in the old boiler building, a rooftop pool, a 209-car parking garage and 4,000 square feet of retail space fronting Paseo de Peralta. Drury bought the 4.91-acre property in 2007, but it put the project on hold during the eco-
nomic downturn. The company announced it was moving forward in 2011, and construction began on the garage in April 2012, followed by work on the hotel in September 2012. Malik has extensive experience in hotel management in the U.S. (Los Angeles and Sedona, Ariz.) and around the world (Mumbai, India, and Saudi Arabia), according to the company. He previously was regional assistant general manager for Heritage Hotels & Resorts in Santa Fe. He has degrees in business from a school in Nice, France, and hotel management
from a school in Montreau, Switzerland. Jenny Cintron has been hired as area sales manager. She’s worked in Santa Fe for 20 years, including 16 in the hospitality industry. She previously worked as the national sales manager for the Inn and Spa at Loretto. Drury Hotels is a St. Louis-based, familyowned company with about 120 hotels in 20 states.

Connections, a nonprofit that sells insurance. “We’re really way behind other states, so I would encourage you to share that information with each carrier on the exchange — since time is short, ASAP.” The open enrollment period under the Affordable Care Act ends March 31, and enrollment at the end of January stood at 11,620 — far below the targeted goal of 50,000, which was adjusted down from the original projection of 83,000 after the federal online portal at healthcare.gov stumbled out of the gate last fall. “This is an opportunity for the state of New Mexico to double the enrollment that we currently have,” Hickey said, making his case for release of the contact information of the former State Covered Insurance clients to be released to the insurance companies participating in the exchange, including Molina, Blue Cross, Presbyterian and his own New Mexico Health Connections. He said that in the hands of insurance brokers, the personal information could maximize enrollment in health plans. “The best people for closing the sale are going to be the people who benefit from the sale, and that’s going to be the carriers,” Hickey said. “The efforts are going to be much stronger.” Exchange board member Patsy Romero bristled at the prospect of handing over information about clients of a government-run insurance program to private companies. “I would just caution you that you need to be careful,” Romero said. “You need to respect people’s privacy.” Sidonie Squire, secretary of the New Mexico Human Services Department, agreed with Romero that the board’s lawyers should review the legality of releasing personal information to insurance companies, but she said she personally had no objections to providing the data to insurers.

Forest: Plan should consider fires, developments Continued from Page A-1 well as large and small group discussions, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The U.S. Forest Service has to follow a set of rules for how to create, revise and expand plans for managing national forests and national grasslands. The agency has been writing plans under a rule that dates to 1982. A new forest management rule was finished last year after what the agency called the most collaborative effort in its history. The new rule is supposed to shorten the amount of time it
takes to amend management plans by a couple of years and reduce the costs by a couple of million dollars. Currently, the federal agency estimates it takes between 5 years and 7 years to change each individual national forest plan and costs taxpayers $5 million to $7 million dollars. Individual forest plans are supposed to be updated every 15 years, but more than half of the 127 plans nationwide are overdue for revision. Santa Fe National Forest’s management plan was first published in 1987 and last amended in 2010.
Forest Service officials say there are some important changes in the way the revised plans will be drafted and in what they will accomplish. The Forest Service and the public will consider how events such as wildfires or developments on bordering lands will affect national forests. The Santa Fe National Forest will host 11 public meetings in April and May on evenings and weekends to talk about reviewing and revising the plan. A technical workshop will be held from 9 a.m. to noon April 30 at the Santa Fe National Forest
Supervisor’s Office, 11 Forest Lane, to discuss 15 topics covered in the plan revision assessment report. The Santa Fe National Forest asks people interested in attending to preregister by calling 438-5442 or emailing santafeforestplan@fs.fed.us. The current Santa Fe National Forest management plan is available at http://tinyurl.com/ lmzr28q. Contact Staci Matlock at 986-3055 or smatlock@ sfnewmexican.com. Follow her on Twitter @stacimatlock.
Open enrollment through the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange closes March 31. Anyone who does not obtain coverage by that deadline cannot enroll through the exchange until 2015, and under most circumstances faces tax penalties next year for failing to comply with the individual mandate imposed by the Affordable Care Act for being uninsured as of April 1. For policies to take effect by April 1, they must be purchased by March 15. The tax penalties in 2015 for failing to meet the individual mandate are $95 per adult and $45 per child in a household, or 1 percent of household gross income — whichever is higher. Information about enrolling through the exchange is available from its bilingual call center, 855-9966449, or online at bewellnm.com, which includes tools to calculate insurance premium subsidy eligibility and out-of-pocket maximum payments. By texting the term “BeWellNM” to 311411, consumers can receive a response from the exchange that includes questions to help determine their eligibility for health insurance subsidies. It also provides the option to have a customer service representative call consumers to assist them.
Search: Teams on water unable to find object believed to be door Continued from Page A-1 presenting conflicting information, the families and friends of victims became increasingly frustrated. One woman in Beijing collapsed in tears Sunday night in the hotel ballroom where passengers’ relatives were waiting for news. “Why won’t anyone tell us anything?” she cried. The many unknowns also frustrated international security experts attempting to determine whether security breaches might have led to tragedy. Ronald K. Noble, the secretarygeneral of the International Criminal Police Organization, or Interpol, said, “It is clearly of great concern that any passenger was able to board an international flight using a stolen passport listed in Interpol’s databases.” “This is a situation we had hoped never to see,” he said, adding that too few countries systematically screen travelers with Interpol’s Stolen and Lost Travel Documents database set up after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. “For years, Interpol has asked, ‘Why should countries wait for a tragedy to put prudent security measures in place at borders and boarding gates?’ ” By early Monday, the search effort had yet to confirm where the plane might have gone down, even as military aircraft and a flotilla of ships from a half-dozen nations, including China, Malaysia, Vietnam and the United States, searched the waters south of Vietnam. On Sunday, Vietnamese media reported that rescuers had found a yellow object they thought might be part of the aircraft. But the media later said it turned out to be a coral reef. The Associated Press reported Sunday night that Vietnamese searchers on ships could not find a rectangle object spotted earlier in the day that was thought to be one of the doors of the plane.
Azharuddin Abdul Rahman, the Malaysian civil aviation chief, said samples from an oil slick discovered in the waters had been collected and were being tested to determine if they had come from the plane. The flight left the international airport in Sepang, outside Kuala Lumpur, at 12:41 a.m. Saturday and vanished less than an hour later as it appeared to be cruising at 35,000 feet in calm weather. More details emerged Sunday about the two passengers listed on the manifest using names from an Austrian passport and an Italian passport reported stolen in Thailand, one in 2012 and the other in 2013. According to electronic booking records, each man bought a one-way ticket Thursday from a travel agency in a shopping mall in the Thai beach resort of Pattaya. A woman who answered the phone at the agency said she was too busy to talk. Both men were scheduled to pass through Beijing and continue to Amsterdam before traveling to different cities, Frankfurt, Germany, and Copenhagen, Denmark, according to the records. A senior U.S. law enforcement official confirmed Sunday that Thai officials were investigating a “passport ring” operating on the resort island of Phuket, where both passports were stolen. Although the official said identifying the two passengers is a top priority for investigators, he noted that false documents were also routinely used in the region by drug smugglers and swindlers. The official, who has received classified briefings on the global investigation, said the authorities had not ruled out terrorism in the plane’s disappearance, but there had been no public claims of responsibility or electronic intercepts of extremists discussing details of any bombing or attack.

“We’re not seeing or hearing anyone claiming anything about this,” the official said. Security experts in Asia differed on the significance of the two stolen passports. Security experts in Asia differed on the significance of the two stolen passports. Xu Ke, a lecturer at the Zhejiang Police College in eastern China who studies aviation safety and hijackings, said the two men might have been illegal migrants. “There are many cases of falsified and counterfeit passports and visas for illegal migration that our public security comes across, even several cases every day,” he said. But Steve Vickers, chief executive of a Hong Kong-based security consulting company that specializes in risk mitigation and corporate intelligence in Asia, said the presence of at least two travelers with stolen passports aboard a single jet was rare. “It is fairly unusual to have more than
one person flying on a flight with a stolen passport,” said Vickers, who publicly warned a month ago that stolen airport passes and other identity documents in Asia merited a crackdown. “The future of this investigation lies in who really checked in.” Azharuddin said investigators were reviewing video footage of the passengers in question. Malaysian officials also said five ticketed passengers failed to board the flight but said that their luggage was removed from the plane before it took off. Vahid Motevalli, an aviation expert at Tennessee Tech University, in Cookeville, Tenn., said that since the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988, verifying the identity of passengers had become fundamental. The Interpol database of stolen passports is considered crucial because it would otherwise be difficult for airline agents to spot well-altered passports. As they tried to deflect questions about seemingly lax security, Malaysian
officials emphasized that their priority was locating the aircraft. They said they had reviewed military radar records and raised the possibility that the aircraft had tried to turn back just before contact with ground controllers was lost. Gen. Rodzali Daud, the commander of the Royal Malaysian Air Force, said that the authorities were “baffled” by the lack of any distress signals from the aircraft and that a closer look at military radar might have indicated a deviation from the flight path. But Mikael Robertsson, the co-chairman of Flightradar24, a Stockholmbased service that tracks the majority of the world’s passenger jets, said data gathered by separate civilian receivers in the region did not appear to show the jet turning around. For now, such conflicting reports seemed to increase tensions. Prime Minister Najib Razak of Malaysia was quoted saying in the newspaper The Star, that Malaysia would “review all security protocols and, if needed, we will enhance them.” But Wang Yi, China’s foreign minister, appeared to flash impatience Sunday in a phone call reported on the ministry’s website. “The Malaysia Airlines flight has been missing for close to 40 hours,” he was quoted as telling his Malaysian counterpart. “The Chinese government is treating this very seriously.” He asked that Malaysia “constantly” provide updates on the situation. As of Monday morning, Malaysia Airlines had not eliminated MH370 from its list of regularly scheduled flight numbers. The airline is still selling tickets on its website for a flight with the same number to Beijing on Wednesday morning, departure 12:35 a.m., scheduled arrival 6:30 a.m.

Martinez OKs overhaul In brief of judicial pension plans Gov. signs health By Barry Massey
only about 60 percent of magistrates participate, which has aggravated the system’s financial problems because it means only a small number of workers pay into a fund that must cover pensions for current and future retirees. The pension overhaul also will restrict the retirement benefits that can go to someone a judge or magistrate designates as their survivor. Under the current system, anyone could be named as a survivor, including a young grandchild, and the individual could get 75 percent of the pension for the rest of their life after the retiree dies. The new law would reduce benefits based on the life expectancy of the beneficiary — an approach that would lower the pension for a young child who’s the survivor of a retiree who dies. The beneficiary change will apply to new judges and magistrates, not those already in office. Also signed by the governor last week were bills to: u Crack down on the theft or damage of utility or communications equipment when it causes an outage or disruption in service. A third conviction would be a felony punishable by up to 18 months in prison. Supporters say it will address the problem of thieves stealing copper wire and cables in electrical utility equipment. u Expand the tests that can be taken by New Mexicans wanting to earn a high school equivalency diploma. New Mexicans will be able to earn a high school equivalent certificate or diploma by taking a test other than one administered by the GED Testing Service. The company has updated its exam but will offer it at a higher cost and only on computer rather than as a pencil-andpaper exam. Test takers pay the costs, and supporters of the new law contended that fewer New Mexicans might be able to take the updated GED exam. There are at least two vendors offering alternative tests.
The Associated Press
Gov. Susana Martinez signed legislation Friday to shore up the long-term finances of pension plans for judges and magistrates. Under the new laws taking effect in July, judges and magistrates must contribute more of their salaries to their retirement plans, and government employers will pay more. New judges and magistrates — those who take office starting in July — must work eight years to qualify for a pension. That’s up from five years for those already in office. The judicial and magistrate retirement funds currently have less than three-fifths of the assets needed to cover future pension benefits. With the changes called for in the legislation, the funds should be fully funded or close to it in 30 years. Martinez vetoed a bill that would have provided the retirement plans with extra revenue to improve their solvency. The governor said the additional money was unnecessary at this time because of the enacted overhaul. The proposal would have shifted about $3.6 million in tax revenue over three years to the judicial and magistrate retirement funds that otherwise goes to pay for legislative pensions. Martinez said in her veto message that if the legislative retirement plan has surplus money flowing into it, then lawmakers should consider “exploring how they might reduce current revenue transfers to redirect a portion of this excess funding to other critical state needs, such as education reform, early childhood programs and health services for New Mexicans.” The governor signed two bills making the pension changes. Under the new laws, all magistrates and judges must participate in the retirement plans and make contributions. Currently, A-6

EL NUEVO MEXICANO Jefe de Policía Rael dimite Por Daniel J. Chacón y Chris Quintana The New Mexican
E
l Jefe de Policía Ray Rael, que suscitó críticas a pesar de reducir el índice de robo a propiedad privada durante su término, se despedirá hoy lunes. Comenta que su jubilación ha sido algo “que se veía venir desde hace tiempo.” Rael, oriundo de Santa Fe, primero trabajó para el departamento de policía desde 1978 hasta 1999, jubilándose por primera vez. Sin embargo en 2004, trabajó como investigador del Departamento de Recursos Humanos de la ciudad antes de ser nombrado jefe de policía. Rael se convirtió en jefe de policía interino en marzo de 2011 a la orden del entonces Administrador Municipal Robert Romero. Rael llenó la vacante que dejó Aric Wheeler, quien dejó repentinamente el cargo para ser capitán de policía. Rael, con un salario de $104,000, fue así oficialmente el jefe de policía en junio de 2011. Inmediatamente enfrentó un sin fin de luchas, particularmente contra la escasez de personal y los índice elevados de crimen a propiedad privada. A pesar de conflictos con oficiales del sindicato, el término del ex militar en el departamento incluye uno de los índices más bajos de crimen desde los 1990s. Rael ajustó los horarios para poner más oficiales en las calles y cortar el tiempo extra. Además, introdujo patrullas contra robo, unidades con dos oficiales que recentaban las áreas más propensas a sufrir asaltos. En 2013, el departamento reportó 1,603 casos de robos a residencias, comerciales, de auto y atentados, lo cual es 17 por ciento menos que en 2012, cuando fueron 1,930 casos. El índice anterior más bajo fue de 1,742 en 1999. Rael también lleno las vacantes en el departamento, anunciando en noviembre de algo fuera de lo común, una agencia totalmente completa. “El crimen a propiedad privada ha bajado a niveles récord en la ciudad y Santa Fe es lo más segura que ha sido en años,” dijo el Alcalde saliente David Coss el jueves respecto a Rael. “Durante su administración, todas las vacantes se cubrieron e investigaciones pendientes de asuntos internos fueron resultas. Quisiera agradecer sinceramente al Jefe Rael por su tiempo, diligencia y servicio.” Romero, el ex administrador de la ciudad, llamó a Rael “un profesional ejemplar.”
“Creo que Ray Rael fue un elemento excelente. Hizo un gran trabajo por la ciudad,” comenta Romero. “Bajo su liderazgo, el índice de robos disminuyó, además de llenar las posiciones abiertas. Siendo los dos problemas principales del Departamento de Policía.” Romero dice que hizo de Rael el jefe de policía porque él tenía la “máxima integridad” y “conocía del trabajo policiaco.” “Era un oficial jubilado del departamento,” menciona Romero. “Sentía que al estar fuera del departamento por 10 años, no tenía relaciones cercanas con ninguno de los oficiales. Algunas veces creo que ese es un problema porque es difícil disciplinar a alguien con quien has trabajo me manera estrecha por varios años. Era lo mejor de los dos mundos. Era alguien que había trabajado en el departamento, capacitado por el departamento, pero a su vez era alguien ajeno porque no había estado en el departamento por varios años.” Rael también estuvo a cargo de la implementación del programa Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion, plan piloto que buscaba abordar el problema del abuso de drogas que ocasiona el robo a propiedad privada.

na tarde de Lent Grama Cuca estaba en la cocina después del noon meal praying el rosario por el repose de las souls in Purgatory. Grampo Caralampio estaba out en el porch drinking una cerveza; one of las few cosas que no había hecho give up para Lent. Canutito estaba bored con su homework so he left su trabajo de domicilio to go see lo que grampo was doing. “Grampo,” said Canutito sitting en la silleta next to him, “did you Larry Torres hear que viene un movie star Growing up pa’ Santa Fe? Spanglish Izque he is coming a hacer shoot una movie de cowboys and Indians.” “That is interesante, m’hijo,” grampo said giving a big ole regoldido. Pero as soon as he had burped he said, “Es muy interesante to have movie stars venir a visitar a la gente here pero if you want to hear about un super-duper star que vino, let me tell you about la vez cuando Jesucristo himself came a visitar a esta parte de Nuevo México.” “Really, grampo?” asked Canutito, opening sus ojos muy grandes, todo impressed. “When did Jesus Christ venir a visitar a New Mexico?” “Hace como forty years ago,” Grampo Caralampio replied. “Where did Christ appear, grampo?” Canutito questioned him con curiosidad. “About forty miles away en una placita called ‘Holman,’ ” grampo said. “Why did He come, grampo?” Canutito asked. “Was is porque la gente de Holman es muy religiosa y espiritual?” “Not quite,” grampo said. “Actually it started una Saturday night cuando algunos de los local boys se estaban haciendo get drunk en la local cantina. Uno de los boys había bebido dos six-packs de cerveza y tenía que hacer pee real bad.” “I can understand eso,” remarked Canutito. “Yo tengo que hacer pee cuando I drink un half glass de lemonade.” “In any case,” Grampo Caralampio said, continuando con su historia, “el muchacho went outside of the bar a mearse against the wall de la cantina. As he was peeing, he looked up y right there, on the side de la pared estaba Jesus looking right right at him.” “I don’t think que I could pee if Jesucristo estaba watching me,” Canutito remarcó. “I’d be too nervioso.” “So was el drunk muchacho,” grampo said. “He zipped up su fly bien rápido and ran back into la cantina to tell a los otros inside about el miracle de Jesús appearing on the wall. Todos rushed outside and when they saw la imagen de Jesús, todos los drunkards, dropped sus cervezas and kneeled down to pray.” “I would have prayed también,” Canutito dijo, breathing hard. “In any case,” grampo continuó, “ya pa’ the following day se había destendido la bolada; the news had spread como wild fire. People came de todas partes de New Mexico a ver a Jesus on the wall de la cantina en Holman. And even though que era Sunday, they didn’t go to church; instead se fueron a poner candles right donde el muchacho had peed como un offering al Jesús on the pared. “Did el Archbishop de Santa Fe come and declarar la cantina to be a holy site like Chimayó, grampo?” Canutito asked. “No,” grampo said. “Instead, he went to investigar and found que el shape de Jesus had been caused by rain water dripping between el plaster y el adobe of the wall. He told the people to go home and pray al real Jesús instead. Pero you know how people are. They continued de ir a visitar la ‘holy cantina de Holman’ as an unofficial church hasta que al fin somebody came and knocked it down.” “I guessed que people just están hungry por miracles,” Canutito remarked.

By one estimate, telecommuting has risen 79 percent between 2005 and 2012 and now makes up 2.6 percent of the U.S. workforce, or 3.2 million workers, according to statistics from the American Community Survey. That includes full-time employees who work from home for someone other than themselves at least half the time, Lister said. But that definition has at times been expanded to include the self-employed; those whose work has to be done outside an office, such as taxi drivers, plumbers, truckers and construction workers; companies where everyone works remotely, so there is no brickand-mortar office; and those who work at home one day or less a week. If all of those workers are included, the number of Americans who work remotely can reach as high as 30 percent. “No one would disagree that the U.S. workforce is increasingly mobile,” said the Telework Research Network in a 2011 paper on the state of telecommuting. “But, beyond that broad statement, we know little about the rate of increase in mobility — how often people Brent Cranfield, pictured in 2008, telecommutes from his home in Marietta, Ga., one are out of the office, where they are and what day a week, saving 30 or 40 miles on his car.

No one would disagree “ that the U.S. workforce is

Going to the South by Southwest technology, music and film festival has long been about discovering the next big thing. It is where many tech enthusiasts learned to use a new messaging service called Twitter. It was the first place many heard Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg speak. More than a few investors have arrived at the sprawling conference in Austin, Texas, in search of interesting young companies, particularly in social media. And it does not hurt if that young company rents a house and serves lots of free drinks. But this year, conference attendees may have to think a little more globally. Many Silicon Valley companies are not making the trip. Instead, the nifty new thing that captures the attention and social calendars of attendees could be from South Korea, Brazil, Europe or Africa. Thanks in part to Facebook spending as much as $19 billion on WhatsApp, a messaging app made by a Silicon Valley company that was relatively unknown in the U.S. but had tremendous adoption outside of it, the startup world is learning to look globally for new ideas and fresh ways to make money. One place to look may be among WhatsApp competitors. Hahn Ryu, project coordinator for the Korean startups at the conference, said the rapid growth of companies like KakaoTalk and Line, messaging apps that have become popular in parts of Asia, have ignited something of a fever. “A few years ago, most people wanted to get hired by Samsung,” he said, referring to people in South Korea. “And now, people are showing more interest in starting their own companies.” Hugh Forrest, director of the interactive portion of SXSW, as the festival is known, said attendees had registered from 74 different countries, up from 54 last year. “It is reflective of the growing global startup market that we’re all vaguely aware of,” he said. The conference’s international flavor can be seen in several panels, including one titled “The Next Steve Jobs May Be From Africa,” and another called “Seizing the Mobile Opportunity in Latin America.” In addition, several countries, with the support of their governments, are erecting houses and pop-up villages for conference attendees. The international slant is a drift away from the historical roots of the conference and perhaps to a new generation of international startups. In past years, SXSW has been a marketing bonanza for social media companies, including Twitter, Foursquare, GroupMe, Path and Highlight. This year? They are passing. Perhaps it is because unlike the aspiring startups from other countries, they have been noticed. That was the case with app-creator Adam Ludwin. Last year, Ludwin rented a Korean taco truck from midnight to 4 a.m. and gave free food away to anyone who downloaded and installed his app, a photo-sharing service called Albumatic. He said it was “incredibly useful for us, but in a surprising way — not as marketing, but as feedback.” Eventually, the app changed into something else and now, Ludwin is working on a new service called Ether. But he has no plans to trot it out in Austin this year. Forrest said that while it was “frustrating and disappointing” that companies that had helped put the conference on the map as a place for innovative social technologies were skipping this year, he was encouraged by the influx of new entrepreneurs.
Review: SwiftKey app aims to improve Apple’s AutoCorrect Failures in predictive text algorithms may be great fodder for humor websites, but those goofy typos can be maddening. SwiftKey has been one of the most popular keyboard apps for Android, as an app that lets you swipe to type. Apple, however, does not allow developers to modify its keyboard. So SwiftKey is looking to improve typing on iDevices in another way — by applying its algorithms to improve Apple’s AutoCorrect. Rather than integrating into the keyboard, SwiftKey’s app is a note-taking app, which offers users three options for each word they type to increase speed. It also learns your habits as you use it, so it saves you time in the long run. The app hooks into Evernote, so you can type excellent constructed notes for yourself. You can also share the notes over email or text. Doing so adds an extra step to the process, which understandably may turn off some users. But while using SwiftKey for your iOS typing may lose you some time, it may help you save face. Free, for iOS. The Washington Post

Computer program allows the blind to ‘see’ with sound By Thomas Sumner Science
A man blind since birth is taking up a surprising new hobby: photography. His newfound passion is thanks to a system that turns images into sequences of sound. The technology not only gives “sight” to the blind, but also challenges the way neurologists think the brain is organized. In 1992, Dutch engineer Peter Meijer created vOICe, an algorithm that converts simple grayscale images into musical soundscapes. (The capitalized middle letters sound out “Oh, I see!”). The system scans images from left to right, converting shapes in the image into sound as it sweeps, with higher positions in the image corresponding to higher sound frequencies. For instance, a diagonal line stretching upward from left to right becomes a series of ascending musical notes. While more complicated images, such as a person sitting on a lawn chair, at first seem like garbled noise, with enough training users can learn to “hear” everyday scenes. In 2007, neuroscientist Amir Amedi and his colleagues at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem began training subjects who were born blind to use vOICe. Despite having no visual reference points, after just 70 hours of training, the individuals went from “hearing” simple dots and lines to “seeing” whole images such as faces and street corners composed of 4,500 pixels. (For comparison, Nintendo’s Mario was made up of just 192 pixels in his first video game appearance.) By attaching a headmounted camera to a computer and headphones, the blind users were even able to navigate around a room by the sound cues alone. Every few steps the system snaps a photo and converts it into sound, giving the users their bearings as they traverse tables and trashcans. One patient even took up photography, using the head-mounted system to frame his snapshots. The training program also devoted 10 hours to recognizing human silhouettes represented by sound. By the end of the training, participants could detect the exact posture of the person represented by the soundscape and replicate the pose, the team reported online Thursday in Current Biology. When the researchers mapped the brain activity of the participants, they found something astonishing. The generally accepted model of the brain contains regions devoted to each sense, such as the sight-centric visual cortex. Researchers had long believed that if those regions aren’t used for their intended sense, they are repurposed for other uses; for example, the visual cortex of someone blind from birth could be used to help boost her hearing. But Amedi and his colleagues found that the area of the visual cortex responsible for recognizing body shapes in sighted people — called the extrastriate body area — lit up with activity in the study participants when they were interpreting the human silhouettes. Amedi says the traditional sensoryorganized brain model can’t explain this activity; after all, the subjects only heard the information, and scientists believed that the body-recognizing area shouldn’t have fully developed without visual experiences during development. Neuroscientist Ella Striem-Amit of Harvard University, who co-authored the paper, thinks it’s time for a new model. “The brain, it turns out, is a task machine, not a sensory machine,” she says. “You get areas that process body shapes with whatever input you give them — the visual cortex doesn’t just process visual information.” Ione Fine, a neuroscientist at the University of Washington who studies brain changes and did not work on the project, says Amedi’s work is the best evidence yet for functional constancy — the idea that areas of the brain do the same job even with different kinds of input. Amedi’s team recently released a successor to vOICe, called EyeMusic, as a free iPhone app. The new algorithm produces more pleasant tones and can even provide color information. Amedi hopes EyeMusic will help blind users gain more independence and improve their quality of life.

WHO lowers recommended sugar intake to 5% of calories By Maria Cheng
The Associated Press
LONDON ust try sugar-coating this: The World Health Organization says your daily sugar intake should be just 5 percent of your total calories — half of what the agency previously recommended, according to new draft guidelines published last week. After a review of about 9,000 studies, WHO’s expert panel says dropping sugar intake to that level will combat obesity and cavities. That includes sugars added to foods and those present in honey, syrups and fruit juices, but not those occurring naturally in fruits. Americans and others in the West eat a lot more sugar than that: Their average sugar intake would have to drop by two-thirds to meet WHO’s suggested limit. WHO’s new guidelines have been published online and the agency is inviting the public to comment via its website until the end of March. Many doctors applauded the U.N. agency’s attempt to limit the global sweet tooth. “The less sugar you’re eating, the better,” said Dr. Robert Lustig, a professor of pediatrics at the University of California and author of a book about the dangers of sugar. “If the sugar threshold is lowered, I think breakfast cereal is going to have a really hard time justifying its existence,” he said, referring to sweetened cereals often targeted to children. When WHO last revised its sugar guidelines more than a decade ago, it recommended sugar should be less than 10 percent of daily calories. The U.S. sugar
J
industry was so incensed it lobbied Congress to threaten to withdraw millions of dollars in funding to WHO. A contentious reference to the sugar limit was removed from a global diet strategy, but the recommendation passed. Lustig said WHO’s new guidelines could alter the food environment by forcing manufacturers to rethink how they’re using sugar in processed foods like bread, soups, pasta sauces and even salad dressings. He called the amount of sugar in processed food an “absolute, unmitigated disaster.” WHO’s expert group found high sugar consumption is strongly linked to obesity and tooth decay. It noted that heavy people have a higher risk of chronic diseases, responsible for more than 60 percent of global deaths. Dental care costs up to 10 percent of health budgets in Western countries and cause significant problems in the developing world. WHO warned many of the sugars eaten today are hidden in processed foods, pointing out that one tablespoon of ketchup contains about one teaspoon of sugar. There is no universally agreed consensus on how much sugar is too much. The American Heart Association advises limiting sugar to about 8 percent of your diet, or six teaspoons a day for women and nine for men. A study led by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published last month found too much sugar can raise the chances of fatal heart problems. Researchers
found the average American gets about 15 percent of their calories from sugar, similar to other Western nations. New nutrition labels proposed in the U.S. will also require food manufacturers to list any added sugars, plus a more prominent calorie count. Earlier this week, Britain’s chief medical officer, Dr. Sally Davies, said she thought sugar might be addictive and that the government should consider introducing a sugar tax to curb bulging waistlines; the U.K. has one of the fattest populations in Western Europe. “We have a generation of children who, because they’re overweight … may not live as long as my generation,” she told a health committee. “They will be the first generation that lives less and that is of great concern.”

Law to let schools stock medications ALBUQUERQUE — New Mexico schools will now be able to stock emergency medication to treat students who suffer asthma attacks or allergic reactions. Gov. Susana Martinez signed Senate Bill 75 into law Sunday at the American Lung Association’s Albuquerque office. Martinez says the law will save the lives of children. The legislation will allow school nurses to administer the medication even to students who don’t have a prescription. Supporters say this will help quickly treat children who haven’t been diagnosed with a respiratory problem but suffer an asthma attack at school. The Associated Press

Funeral services and memorials MANUEL J. RODRIGUEZ Manuel J. Rodriguez, who was born in Espanola, New Mexico, on January 16, 1930, died on March 4, 2014. He was a graduate of St. Michael’s High School, Santa Fe and for two years attended St. Michael’s College (formerly the College of Santa Fe). For six years he was enrolled in the Pontifical Gregorian University (North American College), Rome, from which he obtained an undergraduate degree in Philosophy and graduate degrees in Sacred Theology. He also obtained a Doctor of Canon Law degree from the Catholic University of America, Washington, D.C. In all, he was the recipient of seven earned university degrees, including a Doctor of Law degree from the Harvard Law School. He was ordained a priest in Rome in 1954, and served in that capacity for sixteen years, all of them in the Chancery Office of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe where he served as Vice-Chancellor and subsequently and simultaneously as Chancellor, Presiding Judge of the Matrimonial Tribunal, Vicar General, and for the last three of those years Pastor of Cristo Rey Church as well. At age 30 he was named a Domestic Prelate by Pope John XXIII with the title of Right Reverend Monsignor. Pope John XXIII appointed him a peritus, expert consultant, to Second Vatican Council (19621965), the only such appointee from the state of New Mexico, and as such attended the various sessions of Vatican II. He petitioned for, and was granted by Pope Paul VI, a dispensation from the obligations of the priesthood. In 1971, Archbishop James Peter Davis officiated at the marriage of Mr. Rodriguez and Jean Gutierrez at the Cathedral of St. Francis, Santa Fe. He served for many years as Eucharistic Minister, Lector, and Mass Coordinator at the Basilica of St. Francis. He was also a member of the Nocturnal Adoration Society. Mr. Rodriguez practiced corporate and transactional law for 25 years with the law firm of Jones, Snead, Wertheim, Rodriguez and Wentworth, from which he retired in 1995. He is survived by his wife, Jean Rodriguez. Survivors include: brothers, Juan Guadalupe Rodriguez (Lorraine), Father John Candido Rodriguez, Dr. Gerald P. Rodriguez (Kathleen), sister, Flora Russel (Dan), sister-in-law, Mary Jo Sugden (Jim), and brother-in-law, Peter Fitzsimmons, and numerous nieces and nephews. Mr. and Mrs. Manuel D. Rodriguez, his parents, predeceased him, as did his sisters, Angelina R. Valdez and Bertha R. Martinez, and sister-in-law, Carolyn Fitzsimmons.

Please sign our guestbook for the family at: www.berardinellifuneralhome.com REYES RAMON PADILLA Cherished son, husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend, died in the early morning hours of March 4, 2014, with his family at his side. He was 89. Born in Santa Fe on June 29, 1924, to Reyes and Clara Padilla, Reyes lived his entire life in the city, establishing himself as a strong family man, respected businessman and loyal friend. With Zenaida, his wife of 66 years, he lovingly raised five sons and one daughter, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. He was known as a kind, elegant and funloving man, an avid fisherman, and a proud World War II U.S. Marine Corps veteran. He was dearly loved and will be deeply missed. Reyes graduated from Santa Fe High School in May 1942. Two months later, he joined the Marines, serving until October 1945 as a Corporal in the 3rd Marine Division. He was assigned to the South Pacific, where he participated in campaigns at Bougainville in the Solomon Islands, on Guam, and on Iwo Jima. After the war, he returned to Santa Fe, where he met and married Zenaida Lujan and launched a busy and varied professional life, including work for the U.S. Post Office, City of Santa Fe and in the insurance industry. From 1953 to 1957, he owned and operated Rey’s Gulf Service, a gas station at the northeast corner of Washington Avenue and Marcy Street. In 1961, he was appointed New Mexico Motor Vehicle Commissioner by Gov. Edwin Mechem. Reyes was best known for his role in building the local real estate industry and for his extensive knowledge of residential and commercial properties and land holdings in Santa Fe and throughout New Mexico. Licensed as a Real Estate Broker in 1960, he established Reyes Padilla Realty and was active in the industry for nearly 50 years. He served in many leadership positions throughout his career, including appointments to the Santa Fe Planning Commission and New Mexico Real Estate Commission in 1967 and to the board of the National Association of Realtors in 1969. He was elected president of the Santa Fe Realtors Association in 1970, president of the Realtors Association of New Mexico in 1971, and vice president of the National Association of Realtors in 1974. In 1975, he was honored by his colleagues as New Mexico Realtor of the Year. Reyes also served on many Santa Fe civic boards, notably his more than 20 years as a member of the board of directors of Century Bank and its predecessors, Mutual Building and Loan and Century Federal. Reyes was a devoted son and brother who was preceded in his death by his parents, his brothers Abel and Rudy, and his sisters Mary and Pauline. He is survived by his wife, Zenaida; sons Steve, Ray and wife Marcia, Rick, Tommy and wife Kimberly, Carlos and wife Dale, and daughter Carmella and husband Luis Tapia. He also leaves behind his grandchildren Brittany and husband Shane Williams, Brian Padilla, Marissa Padilla, Alana Padilla, Reyes Padilla, Sarah and husband Randy Sparacio, Thomas Padilla and Mikaela Padilla, and two great-grandchildren, Isabella and Randy Sparacio. His brother Louis Padilla and wife Yolanda, sisters Gloria Salazar, Rosina Silva and daughter Carmen, Cecelia and husband Lorenzo Garcia, brother-in-law A.B. Martinez, and many other extended family members also survive him. A Visitation will be held at 6 p.m., followed by a rosary at 7 p.m., on Monday, March 10, at the Rosario Chapel at Rosario Cemetery.

ANTONIO (TONY) CHAVEZ JR. 92, a lifelong resident of Santa Fe, NM, was called into the arms of Our Lord on Monday, March 3, 2014. Tony was born to Maria (Sena) Chavez and Antonio Chavez, Sr in 1921. A memory that stayed with Tony was losing his mother at age 10 and being sent to St. Anthony’s Orphanage, a home for boys, in Albuquerque. This was a Catholic School run by German nuns who were very strict disciplinarians. He said to himself, "This experience would come in handy later in the Army." He attended St. Francis Catholic School, Harrington Jr High, and graduated from Santa Fe High class of 1939. Tony was a WWII veteran, drafted into the US Army in 1942, achieving the rank of Sgt in the 447 AAA Battalion. Tony was in the Europe Theatre stationed in England, France, and Germany. He stepped on an anti-personnel mine and was discharged from the Army in 1945 due to his severe injuries that plagued him throughout his lifetime. Tony was decorated with the Europe Africa Middle East Medal with four Clusters, The Purple Heart, The American Campaign Medal, The Good Conduct Medal, World War II Victory Medal, and The French Medal of Freedom. Tony was very proud of his military service and was instrumental in establishing the Military Order of the Purple Heart Chapter 372 in 1966 where he served in an official capacity until 2010. Tony was a mailman with the US Postal Service for 38 years and would often say how much he loved that job. He was a very devout Catholic and a member of the Confradia de la Conquistadora, St Jude League, Sacred Heart League. He was a lifetime member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans, and Charter member of the Military Order of the Purple Heart #372 and was also a member of the National Association of Letter Carriers, the Union Protectiva, and the Santa Fe Senior Center. He met and married his wife of 40 years, Margarita (Margie) Varela, while they were both working at Bruns Army Hospital in Santa Fe in the late 1940’s. From that union, were born three daughters and one granddaughter whom he loved with all his heart. Tony was a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather and always made sure he did the best he could for his small family. He would take his little daughters for rides in the car to see the lights on Cerrillos Road and then for ice cream at the Mighty Nice ice cream shop where the Roundhouse now stands. When his granddaughter was a little girl, he would often take her for rides around his neighborhood in a little red wagon. That was such a special moment for both of them. Tony instilled strong values in his daughters and granddaughter and taught them to be honest, hardworking, and trustworthy which are values they carry with them to this day. Tony’s hobbies were fishing and deer hunting. He enjoyed many hunting trips with his brother Alfonso and his nephew Mike. The family would often enjoy brook trout he brought home from his fishing trips and sometimes venison from his hunting trips. Tony is survived by his loving daughters, Angela Chavez (Roger Hoek) of Albuquerque, Christina Romero (Harold) of Santa Fe, Judy Esparsen (Kelly) of Albuquerque, his one and only granddaughter Vanessa Romero of Santa Fe, his brother Rudy (Patricia) of Florida, his sister-in-law Katie Chavez, nieces and nephews, and special friend Laura Mendoza. The family wishes to express special appreciation to Tracie Alghren, his friend and nurse, and his health care aids Beverly Soto and Bonnie Nieto of whom he was very fond. Preceding him in death are his loving wife Margarita, an infant son, his parents, and siblings Flora Williams (David), Triny (Josephine), Johnny (Bessie), Vito Coca (Tommy), and Alfonso. We will miss our daddy and grandpa more than words can ever express and we know he is in eternal life with our Lord in heaven. Visitation will be Monday, March 10, 2014 from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm with a rosary at 6:00 pm to be recited by the Union Protectiva at Berardinelli Funeral Home. Mass of Christian Burial will be recited on Tuesday, March 11, 2014 at 10:00 am at The Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi. Burial service with full military honors will be at the Santa Fe National Cemetery on Guadalupe St. immediately following the Mass. Pallbearers are Patriots of the Military Order of the Purple Heart Chapter 372. Honorary pallbearers are Ruben Montoya, Pascual Baca, Oscar Jordan, Mike Chavez, Roger Hoek, Harold Romero, Kelly Esparsen, Frank Angel and Dwayne Hoek.

Margaret was born on November 3, 1922 in Punxsutawney, PA, to Andrew Sabo and Barbara Palinkas. The family moved to Bridgeport, where her father established a butcher shop to support seven children. Her home was walking distance to Seaside Park; Margaret loved the water, sun, and swimming. She enjoyed music-played the piano-and danced! The 40s big-band sound propelled her to the dance floor. One evening she dated Michael Zeilik, who took her out for a steak dinner and dancing. They kept jitterbugging long after they were married at St. Peter’s Roman Catholic Church in Bridgeport on July 6, 1944. Michael died in Santa Fe in November 2010. They enjoyed loving companionship for 66 years. Margaret raised two children-Michael and Pamela. When the family moved into the house her husband built in Stratford, CT, she took the kids on frequent beach excursions, escorting them on public buses. When they grew older, she worked part-time cafeteria positions at Bunnell High School in Stratford. Later, she moved up to manage food services at Flood Middle School. The students delighted in her handing out extra milk and deserts. Margaret’s family honors her: her son Michael, of Santa Fe; daughter, Pamela Lobel, of Lynn, MA; grandsons Zachary Zeilik, Jeremy Zeilik, of Santa Fe, and Andrew Lobel; and his spouse, Julia, of Peabody, MA. They greatly appreciate Helen Chavez, Margaret’s devoted caregiver. She and Margaret shared special jokes and toughness. Margaret rests next to her Michael at the National Cemetery in Santa Fe. She wrote in her diary: "I loved him so much and always." A memorial service celebrating her life will be held Wednesday, March 12, at 11:15 A.M. at the Santa Fe National Cemetery at the Committal Shelter.

Privacy is becoming a luxury good
L
ast year, I spent more than $2,200 and countless hours trying to protect my privacy. Some of the items I bought — a $230 service that encrypted my data in the Internet cloud; a $35 privacy filter to shield my laptop screen from coffee-shop voyeurs; and a $420 subscription to a portable Internet service to bypass untrusted connections — protect me from criminals and hackers. Other products, such as a $5-a-month service that provides me with disposable email addresses and phone numbers, protect me against the legal (but, to me, unfair) mining and sale of my personal data. In our data-saturated economy, privacy is becoming a luxury good. After all, as the saying goes, if you aren’t paying for the product, you are the product. And currently, we aren’t paying for very much of our technology. Not long ago, we would have bought services as important to us as mail and news. Now, however, we get all those services for free — and we pay with our personal data, which is spliced and diced and bought and sold. Consider Google, which scans what you write in Gmail to offer advertisers a chance to promote their items based on your missives. Or a visit to an online news site where your data is secretly auctioned and sold before the page loads. Or Facebook, which allows marketers to turn your status updates into ads for their products. Those who aren’t bothered by that exchange should keep in mind that our data is used not just for advertisements. It has also been used to charge people different prices based on their personal information. It has been used to provide different search results to different people based on their political interests. It has been used by the government to identify possible criminal and terrorist suspects. Just last week, we learned that the British government had intercepted and archived still images from millions of Yahoo webcam chats around

OUR VIEW
Relevant SAT for today’s challenges
T the world, whether or not the participants were suspected of wrongdoing. The more we learn about how our data are being harnessed — and how they may be exploited in the future — the more likely we are to reevaluate the true cost of these supposedly free services. And some of us will start trying to buy our way out of the trade-your-data-for-services economy. But, as I have learned, it isn’t cheap or convenient to start buying privacy. I spend annoying amounts of time updating software or trying to resolve technical difficulties when my different privacyprotecting services conflict with one another. It all reminds me of the early days of the organic food movement, when buying organic often meant trekking to inconveniently located, odd-smelling stores and paying high rates for misshapen apples. Only the devoted few were willing to suffer the hassles. Over time, however, the number of people worried about chemicals in their food grew large enough to support a robust market. The stores eventually became better looking, the apples were less misshapen, and organic food entered the mainstream of
American life. A similar evolution in the personal-data-protection market is underway. Traffic to the privacy-protecting search engine DuckDuckGo has more than doubled since Edward J. Snowden revealed vast government surveillance programs in June. The Blackphone, a $629 not-yet-released Android-based smartphone that will have privacy-protecting software installed to allow users to send encrypted texts and make encrypted calls, is being pre-ordered by the thousands. And last year, a New York entrepreneur, Adam Harvey, sold out of his first run of the OFF Pocket — an $85 cellphone case that blocks signals to and from the phone. “My vision is that privacy won’t be given to you as a law completely,” he told me. “You have to commercialize it so people can speak with their money.” Standing in the way of the widespread adoption of these tools, however, is the problem of verification. I have Harvey’s OFF Pocket and it seems to block the cell signals, but I don’t know for sure that it works as promised. The same is true with Silent Circle’s phone, or DuckDuckGo’s privacy policies. I hope their claims are true, but there are few trusted third parties to
verify them. This was brought home to me when I signed up for a service from TrustedID. For $35, the company promised to opt me out of some of the biggest American data brokers. A few months later, I contacted those brokers to confirm that my information had been removed from their databases. It turned out that TrustedID had failed to process more than half of the opt-outs. The service has since been suspended. As more privacy-protecting services pop up every day, we need to consider two important questions: Can we ensure that those who can afford to buy privacy services are not being deceived? And even more important, do we want privacy to be something that only those with disposable money and time can afford? The food industry can offer some possible answers to those questions. Our government enforces baseline standards for the safety of all food and has strict production and labeling requirements for organic food. It may be time to start doing the same for our data. This commentary was written for The New York Times.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Economic test continues in real life
I
A-11
don’t know what world Barry Hatfield has been observing since the start of the Great Recession (“Letter to the editor: Bad Economics,” Feb. 24), but the worldwide economic crash that occurred in 2008 gave us an excellent opportunity for an economics experiment, and we’ve managed to have a side-by-side comparison of the strategy he disdains against the one he seems to favor, namely austerity. If one looks at the economies across Europe and America, the ones that are doing the absolute worst are the ones that instituted the most draconian austerity measures, slowing down their economies even more, enabling a tailspin to occur. The stimulus package, by most arguments far smaller than we really needed it to be, is what kept us out of a double-dip recession or depression. With our failing infrastructure and our long-term unemployment, we could have easily put millions to work while investing in renewing our infrastructure that we rely on for our economy to function. That we had to settle for too little government investment is yet another example
of how we’ve allowed the deficit scolds among us to drive the debate and prevent good policy from moving forward. Mark Terry

An anecdotal story On N.M. 14 in 1960: a well is 5 years old, 110 feet deep. The residential population is approximately 20 families along N.M. 14. In 1970: The area population grows fast. A county plan suggests water availability for 250 families, from Interstate 25 to the village of Cerrillos. In 1980: The well holds with maximum conservation, and then a population explosion occurs. Wells are dry, aquifer strained. In 1990: I give up my vegetable garden and lose the orchard. The water table drops. I drill a new well, install watersaving appliances and severely reduce the yard size. In 2000: Worries continue about the well. Pressure drops after 5 p.m. (all garden hoses in the neighborhood run full speed). I include cacti and native

Pothole repair Dear Mayor Javier Gonzales: Please repair the potholes in Santa Fe so I don’t have to get an alignment on my car every year or replace my tires often due to uneven tire wear caused by a bad alignment from pothole slams. Oh, by the way, I just cussed at some potholes I hit recently on Guadalupe Street between Johnson Street and the DeVargas Center. Robert Rodriguez
hat millstone around high school students’ necks — the college-admission behemoth known as the SAT — is changing. College Board officials announced last week that the test so many high school juniors fear will be fundamentally different starting in 2016. With changes ranging from the selection of vocabulary words to optional essays to the elimination of penalties for guessing, the overhauled SAT is designed to be more connected to curriculum. While some fear the new test will be too easy, we think many of the changes are practical — especially with the news that the College Board will partner with the online Khan Academy to offer free practice problems. This could help balance the advantages of children from well-off families (many spend thousands of dollars on tutors, for example). After all, the test preparation industry rakes in some $4.5 billion a year. No wonder children from affluent families score better on the test. Changes also mean low-income students will be allowed to apply to four colleges at no charge. This waiving of fees should open opportunities for students whose choices had been limited because they could not afford application fees. We will miss the somewhat obscure vocabulary words, the kind to be memorized and never used again, but such emphasis on the arcane isn’t necessarily a sign of greater intelligence. The new vocabulary will consist of words that students are likely to use in college, and that shift to the practical is not a bad thing. Math will be more narrowly focused, on such items as linear equations and functions, with the use of a calculator banned on many math sections. The test score is changing, too, returning to the old 1,600 scale. It had been 2,400 since 2004. The essay will be optional; considering that graders can spend a scant few minutes with a test that could change a person’s life, we don’t think that’s a downgrade, either. One of the biggest changes will come in grading. The SAT no longer will penalize students for guessing, but will merely add up all of a test taker’s correct answers. That will encourage students to guess and could help colleges find students who are more intuitive and able to answer questions through context and elimination. Of course, whatever the changes in standardized tests, the reality is that nothing predicts college success as much as a high school student’s grade-point average. Realizing that, many colleges are dumping the SAT and ACT altogether. No wonder the test giants are attempting to become more relevant. They do not want to go the way of the dinosaur. Adding relevance is one way to stay alive.
The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: March 10, 1914: Sen. Thomas Catron is to introduce another bill providing for a game refuge on the upper Pecos. It is to be hoped the measure will be passed. No region offers better facilities for the successful conservation and propagation of wild game, and every sportsman and lover of wildlife hopes to see the refuge established. March 10, 1964: Creation of a national laboratory at Los Alamos and expansion of The University of New Mexico’s program there are being considered. The laboratory would be similar to Argonne in Illinois, Brookhaven on Long Island, N.Y., and Oak Ridge in Tennessee. Development of the UNM extension division’s community college at Los Alamos also is being discussed. The laboratory would be a joint project of the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory operated by the University of California-Berkeley under contract to the Atomic Energy Commission, and as many colleges and universities in the Rocky Mountain region and the Southwest as would be willing to participate.

Newsmakers ENGLEWOOD, N.J. — Sheila MacRae has starred on the Broadway stage and in film. Yet, it’s her small-screen role as the tolerant and brassy wife of a Brooklyn bus driver for which she is most remembered. MacRae, best known for playing Alice Kramden, wife of Jackie Gleason’s Ralph in the 1960s re-creation of The Honeymooners, died Thursday. She was 92. MacRae replaced Audrey Meadows as Alice Kramden in a later version of The Honeymooners from 1966-70 on The Jackie Gleason Show. She was the last survivor from the ’60s Gleason show.

SALT LAKE CITY — The newest Utah polygamous family featured in a reality TV show says sharing their story with a wide audience has been liberating. Brady Williams and his five wives were a bit apprehensive ahead of the airing of a pilot episode in September, but they said this week in an interview with The Associated Press that it felt good to be open about who they are and what they believe. “It really is like coming out of the closet,” said Brady Williams, 43. “It’s very liberating.” His wives feel the same way, including his second, Robyn Williams, 40, who said: “I feel more free to just be who I am and not be so afraid.” The first of nine episodes of the show, My Five Wives, aired Sunday on TLC. It chronicles the life of Brady Williams, his five wives and their 24 children who live in a small rural community outside of Salt Lake City dominated by a branch of the fundamentalist Mormon church. The family once belonged to the group, known as the Apostolic United Brethren, but withdrew during the mid2000s after re-evaluating their core beliefs. Now, they practice polygamy not because they think they must to get to heaven and avoid hell, but because they prefer the lifestyle. Their show begins airing in a social and political climate that has softened significantly toward plural families recently. A federal judge in Utah struck down key parts of the state’s polygamy laws in December, marking a victory for the Williams family and hundreds of other polygamists in the state. The ruling decriminalizes polygamy, making only bigamy — holding marriage licenses with multiple partners — illegal. The family that brought that lawsuit against the state of Utah, Kody Brown and his four wives from TLC’s Sister Wives, is credited with helping create greater acceptance for plural families. Their show, which debuted in 2010 with footage of the family at their house in northern Utah, was ground-

breaking in demonstrating to viewers across the country that not all polygamists are child predators like Warren Jeffs, the imprisoned leader of a polygamous sect on the Utah-Arizona border. The Williams family members said they don’t expect viewers to be surprised by much, other than maybe how similar they are to non-polygamous families. It’s normal times five, the family jokes. Viewers will see tears, joy and quarrels, they said. TLC is banking on viewers being fascinated by the unique dynamics of a plural family: regular family sit-down meetings among the adults where Brady Williams follows an agenda written on a notepad; side-by-side multiplexes where they live; and nightly family dinners where the children line up like kids in a school cafeteria to get their food. Then there’s the alwaysintriguing dynamic among the wives who share a husband. In the first episode, Brady Williams suggests the women work out their issues directly with one another rather than always coming to him, only to see it lead to hurt feelings and shouting. Among the topics discussed by the family during the season is a possible move out of Utah, maybe even to Washington. The Browns of Sister Wives fled Utah for Las Vegas, Nev., after their show aired under the threat of prosecution from a county official. The Williams aren’t terribly worried about that happening to them, as long as the recent court ruling stands. But they say they don’t feel welcomed in the tightknit community where almost everyone but them belongs to the church. “There haven’t been any overt acts of disapproval,” Brady Williams said. But he added: “We want to be able to feel comfortable in our own skin.” Aaron Bronson, a principal at the school in the community and member of the Apostolic United Brethren, said he doesn’t begrudge the Williams family for doing the show. He said the production crews have been respectful, and he’s heard no complaints from the Williams family’s neighbors. Metcalfe) learns something surprising about Nicolas’ past.

ST. LOUIS — Wichita State’s still perfect. And proudly awaiting a No. 1 seed. After the nation’s only unbeaten made another put-away run in the Missouri Valley Conference tournament title game, Wichita St. 83 guard Fred VanIndiana St. 69 Vleet fired back at doubters who cast aspersions on a schedule ranked 113th in the nation. “You can debate what you want to debate. Facts are facts, truth is truth,” VanVleet, the conference player of the year, said after the second-ranked Shockers beat Indiana State 83-69 on Sunday to go to 34-0. “We’re not into debating how good or great we are or how bad somebody else. “That’s for barber shop talk and coffee table arguments. We’re not into that stuff. If they feel that way, it’s on them. And nobody that’s arguing about it is on the selection committee.”

DORAL, Fla. — He wore black pants and a red shirt, his Sunday colors. He took a lead into the final round, quickly expanded it with a pair of birdies and then relied on his short game to keep everyone chasing him. He even played it safe off the 18th tee, caring more about the trophy than the final score. That script for Patrick Reed years belonged to Tiger Woods. Patrick Reed followed it perfectly to win the Cadillac Championship, replacing Woods as the youngest winner of a World Golf Championship. “The best player ever to live when I was growing up wore black pants, a red shirt,” Reed said after closing with an even-par 72 for a one-shot victory at Doral. “I was growing up watching him. I always thought, ‘You know, it would be cool to wear black, and red coming down on Sunday. “Just happens to be that we both wear it on Sunday now.”

he Santa Fe High girls basketball team has been waiting a long time for another crack at a state championship. The Demonettes have been waiting since March 14, 2013, in fact, when they were bounced from the tournament by Roswell in double overtime 57-47 in the Class AAAA semifinals. If they are still playing on March 14 this year, it means they have acheived their goal — the AAAA championship will be determined on Friday. For the past 361 days, the only thing the Demonettes could think about was winning a state championship, and that has been their motivation for this year. Santa Fe High had a year worthy of
a championship by winning a schoolrecord 26 games while only dropping two, one of which was to AAAAA Volcano Vista. But even while the Demonettes were tearing through their schedule, they still had last season’s loss to the Lady Coyotes fueling a season that included a 19-game win streak.
“Last year is the biggest thing that keeps us motivated,” junior wing Kayla Herrera said. “We were so close last year, and we wanted it so bad. Being sent home in double overtime flipped a switch in us. We’re just out to get it, we’re hungry. You can see it in our determination and work ethic.” A 19-game winning streak could have made young players content, but Santa Fe High head coach Elmer Chavez and his staff made sure to keep their focus by trying to keep them from dwelling on the most recent game, regardless of the outcome. “We kept our focus by being brought back to reality every day in practice,” senior guard Jackie Martinez said. “Our coach tells us every time we get a win

Detroit Lions owner William Clay Ford dies at 88 By Douglas Martin The New York Times
William Clay Ford, who once steered a car from his grandfather Henry Ford’s lap but, overshadowed by his brash older brother, Henry II, never got the chance to run the family business, died Sunday at his home in Grosse Pointe, Mich. Ford’s last surviving grandchild, he was 88. The cause was pneumonia, Ford Motor Co. said. Ford, who was also the longtime owner of the Detroit Lions football team, represented the automaker’s last direct link to the days when the company belonged entirely to the
Ford family. He was long the company’s largest shareholder, and the last Ford family member to be a confidant of Henry Ford, the American legend who made the automobile William Clay Ford accessible to the masses. As vice chairman of Ford and the leader of powerful board committees, he provided stability, perspective and stewardship of the family’s interest. Under company bylaws, Ford family members

retained 40 percent of voting power, even as their proportion of common stock slipped to less than 2 percent. Through his marriage to Martha Parke Firestone, granddaughter of tire magnate Harvey Firestone, Ford united two of America’s industrial dynasties. He was appointed to the Ford board while still a student at Yale and joined the company after graduation in 1949. In 1952, he headed a group that came up with a new edition of the Lincoln Continental, a luxury car so elegant it had been displayed at the Museum of Modern Art. The new model, the Continental Mark II, was a hit.
“He had exquisite taste, and he knew when an idea was right,” John Reinhart, the Continental’s chief stylist, told Automobile Quarterly in 1974. It was Henry II, Ford’s older brother, however, whom Henry Ford picked as his successor, and he became president of Ford in 1945, later becoming chief executive and chairman. Nicknamed “Hank the Deuce,” Henry II was known for his effective management and a jet-setting lifestyle. When The New York Times Magazine asked William in 1969 about his brother’s cosmopolitan crowd, he allowed that they weren’t his “cup of tea.”

Keselowski edges Junior on last lap in Las Vegas By Greg Beacham
The Associated Press
LAS VEGAS, Nev. — Dale Earnhardt Jr. knew he probably didn’t have enough fuel to finish. Being in Vegas, he decided to gamble anyway. And when Earnhardt’s tank went bust on the final lap, Brad Keselowski was right there to clean up. Keselowski surged ahead when Earnhardt ran out of fuel, claiming a dramatic victory Sunday in the NASCAR race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Earnhardt’s Chevy sputtered and slowed out of the second turn, and Keselowski roared past him on the backstretch in his Penske Ford for the first weekend sweep in his career. Keselowski followed up Saturday’s Nationwide Series victory with his first Las Vegas Cup win, doing it in exhilarating fashion against the friend and mentor who gave him his first big break in racing. “That’s what you live for as a driver, at least I do,” Keselowski said. “Those moments where you’re side by side, and you lay it all out on the racetrack and bring back the car with the tires smoking, engine smoking, and you’re worn out inside because you gave it all you had. It was one of those races there at the end.” Keselowski knew all about the fuel shortage faced by Earnhardt and Carl Edwards, who both made their final pit stops about 10 laps before him. So Keselowski decided to force the issue, getting around Edwards and pushing for the lead so Earnhardt would be forced to abandon his conservative, fuel-saving lines. “I felt like we could run him down,” Keselowski said about the driver who put him in his first Nationwide ride. “He was going to have to burn fuel to keep me behind him. At that point, it was just a matter of whether a yellow

[flag] came out or not, because it was just a ticking time bomb. It worked in our favor today.” Earnhardt finished second and didn’t regret it, secure in his overall position thanks to the new rules in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, which puts increased emphasis on wins. Still, Earnhardt and his Hendrick Motorsports ride were just a few ounces of fuel shy of earning their second victory in three races to start the season. When Earnhardt sat down for his post-race news conference in front of
two cans of his sponsor’s energy drink, he picked up one can wistfully: “That’s all we needed, just 16 ounces.” The Daytona 500 champion was disappointed, but not discouraged after his spectacular start to the NASCAR season. He also finished second last week at Phoenix. “We weren’t supposed to make it,” Earnhardt said. “We were trying to save as much as we can and make it work, but we knew we were short. We wouldn’t have finished second if we didn’t have that strategy.” Keselowski, the 2012 Sprint Cup
champion, virtually assured himself of a spot in the Chase after missing it entirely last season. “It’s just such a reliever for everyone on the team to get that win in early, and be able to enjoy the races and opportunities that we have instead of being stressed out about them,” Keselowski said. “You know, I think if anything it actually lends itself to better racing.” Earnhardt also praised NASCAR’s new Chase setup, which allowed him to take a fuel gamble in Vegas after winning already this season. Addi-
tional wins are worth bonus points in the Chase, while a second-place finish doesn’t help his position much — hence the motivation to go for broke on an empty tank. “I think the new format is definitely is showing it has tons of positives,” Earnhardt said. “It’s better as far as entertainment for our sport. It gives us freedom, and it’s nice to have that freedom to do the things that we did today, even though we knew our odds weren’t good. We really shouldn’t have made it, and we didn’t, but we got to try because of the new system.”

Maryland fights off Virginia in OT The Associated Press
COLLEGE PARK, MD. — Maryland closed out its 61st and final Atlantic Coast Conference regular season in stunning fashion by ending Virginia’s 13-game winning Maryland 75 streak. Virginia 69 After blowing a seemingly secure lead in the closing seconds of regulation, the Terrapins never trailed in the extra session in front of an emotional sellout crowd of 17,950 at the school’s final home basketball game in a conference it joined as a charter member in 1953. Maryland moves to the Big Ten next season. When the final buzzer sounded, thousands of fans stormed the court to celebrate another unforgettable ACC memory at the expense of one of its biggest rivals. Seth Allen scored five of his 20 points in overtime, and Dez Wells finished with 18 for the Terrapins (17-14, 9-9 ACC), who had lost six straight to Virginia, including a 61-53 decision in February. NO. 7 SYRACUSE 74, FLORIDA ST. 58 In Tallahassee, Fla., C.J. Fair scored 22 points and Syracuse closed the regular season with a victory in the program’s first trip to Florida State. The Orange, who ended a two-game losing streak, had lost 4 of 5 after starting the season 25-0. Jerami Grant, who had been bothered by back problems recently, had 16 points and eight rebounds, while Tyler Ennis finished
with 16 points for Syracuse (27-4, 14-4 Atlantic Coast Conference). Okaro White led Florida State with 20 points and 10 rebounds. Fellow senior Ian Miller scored 16 points in his last home game, while Aaron Thomas chipped in 14. The bubble may have burst for Florida State (18-12, 9-9), which desperately needed a signature win at this point of the season to earn a berth in the NCAA tournament. Syracuse ran away from the Seminoles in the second half behind Fair. The senior forward scored 15 points after halftime, including 10 of the Orange’s first 14 to take a 47-40 lead. NEBRASKA 77, NO. 9 WISCONSIN 68 In Lincoln, Neb., Shavon Shields and Terran Petteway scored 26 points apiece, and Nebraska beat Wisconsin to bolster its resume for an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament. The Cornhuskers (19-11, 11-7) won for the 10th time in 12 games to clinch fourth place in the Big Ten for their highest conference finish since 1997-98. The Badgers (25-6, 12-6) had their longest conference win streak since 1940-41 end at eight games. Shields made a couple of free throws, Ray Gallegos hit a 3-pointer, and Shields dunked in transition to start a 12-1 run that turned a 52-48 deficit into a 60-53 lead with 5 minutes left. The Cornhuskers, looking for their first NCAA tournament appearance since 1998, picked up a second win against a top-10 team for the first time since 1993-94. Their other one was at then-No. 9 Michigan State on Feb. 16. The Huskers won 11 conference
games for the first time since 1965-66. Nebraska also finished with a Big Tenbest 15-1 home record by defeating the conference’s best road team. NO. 17 SAINT LOUIS 64, UMASS 62 In Amherst, Mass., Jordair Jett scored on a driving layup with 3 seconds to play, and Saint Louis snapped a three-game losing streak to win the Atlantic 10 regular season title outright for the second straight season. Jett finished with 17 points, including the Billikens’ last six of the game. Saint Louis (26-5, 13-3 A-10) got its final possession on a jump ball call with 36.4 seconds left. Jett dribbled out the clock near midcourt before starting the game-winning drive. Chaz Williams, who had 20 points and nine assists for the Minutemen (23-7, 10-6), had a 3-point attempt at the buzzer bounce off the rim. Saint Louis, which started its losing skid after a school-record 19-game winning streak, didn’t lead in the second half until Jett’s game-winning shot. OHIO ST. 69, NO. 22 MICHIGAN ST. 67 In Columbus, Ohio, LaQuinton Ross scored 22 points, and Aaron Craft added 12, including a late free throw, to lead Ohio State. Keith Appling’s jumper with 2 seconds left was off the mark for the Spartans, who failed to score over the final 4:30 as Ohio State scored the game’s final four points. Adreian Payne scored 23 points, Gary Harris had 12 and Denzel Valentine 11 for the Spartans (23-8, 12-6 Big Ten), who have lost seven of their last 11.
Cruise: VanVleet scores several key points Continued from Page B-1 Players wore championship T-shirts that proclaimed Wichita State the winner on the front but on the back had a bracket with Indiana State winning. “They’ll get us the right ones eventually,” guard Ron Baker said. Over the past two days of the tournament, coach Gregg Marshall predicted a return trip to St. Louis, for the second and third rounds of the Midwest Regional. “We know the routine, we know the hotel. There won’t be any ooh, aah moments,” Marshall said. “It will be just business as usual.” VanVleet scored 22 points, including several key baskets late, and the Shockers got their typical strong ensemble effort. “Every one of them’s a handful,” Indiana State guard Jake Odum said. “We were right there but they’re unbeaten for a reason. They stayed composed, they hit tough shots, they earned it.” Tekele Cotton added 20 points — with four 3-pointers — and Baker had 14 points for the Shockers (34-0), who got tested in the second half before putting the title game out of reach with a 13-0 run capped
by two 3-pointers from VanVleet that put them up by 18 points with 5:38 to go. “I didn’t have enough timeouts to stop the runs, but that’s what they do,” Indiana State coach Greg Lansing said. “That’s why they’re undefeated. That’s why they’re hoisting the trophy.” Wichita State matched the NCAA record for victories to start the season by UNLV in 1990-91 with its third straight convincing tournament win after going 18-0 in the conference regular season. The Shockers won their first conference tournament since 1987. “We’re not flawless,” Marshall said. “Our record is flawless. We’ve got great players. They’ve taken us on an unbelievable ride to this point.” Manny Arop and Justin Gant had 18 points apiece for second-seeded Indiana State (23-10), which has one of the closer calls against Wichita State with a sevenpoint loss at home in early February. Arop totaled 12 points the first two tourney games. “Hopefully we’ll get into the NIT,” Odum said. “We’ll see if we can make a splash there.” The Shockers had runs of 17-0 and 24-0
while beating Missouri State by 25 points in the semifinals. Wichita State’s last nine victories have all been by double digits. The Shockers have won 12 of 14 in the Indiana State series. “They do not have weaknesses,” Lansing said. “If anybody could see one, I’d like to hear it.” VanVleet scored 13 points in the final 6 minutes and was named to the all-tournament team along Cleanthony Early and Cotton, who was voted the tourney MVP. Odum also made the team along with Evansville’s D.J. Balentine, who scored 61 points in two games. The only way the Valley could get two teams in the NCAA tournament was if Wichita State lost. The Shockers earned the conference’s automatic bid after going to the Final Four as a No. 9 seed and Valley tourney runner-up last March. Wichita State got some early breathing room with an 11-0 run for a 23-11 lead not long past the mid-point of the first half, and led by at least nine points the rest of the half while taking a 39-29 halftime lead. Darius Carter led the way off the bench with nine points and five rebounds in 9 minutes.

Reed: Woods fails to make birdie in final Continued from Page B-1 Only one of them stood out at the new Blue Monster. Even with Woods and his red shirt only three shots behind and in the group directly in front of him, the 23-yearold Reed stretched his lead to four shots at one point until making a pair of bogeys in the final hour. He held off Bubba Watson and Jamie Donaldson of Wales. Woods, in his best chance this year to win a tournament, said his back flared up after an awkward shot out of the bunker on the sixth hole. He failed to make a birdie in the final round for the first time in his PGA Tour career, and his 78 was his worst Sunday score ever. “Just let me get through this day, get some treatment and we’ll assess it as time goes on,” Woods said about his back. He withdrew from the Honda Classic after 13 holes of the final round last week because of back spasms. Reed has three wins in 14 starts and should move to No. 20 in the world. He feels his ranking should be even better. Reed cited an amateur career that includes going 6-0 in matches to lead Augusta State to two NCAA titles, followed by three PGA Tour wins in seven months. “I don’t see a lot of guys that have done that besides Tiger Woods and the legends of the game,” Reed said. “I believe in myself, especially with how hard I’ve worked. I’m one of the top five players in the world. I feel like I’ve proven myself.” He joined some exclusive company. Since 1990, only Woods, Phil Mickelson, Rory McIlroy and Sergio Garcia had three PGA Tour wins before turning 24. This was not an accident, either.
NMHU rallies for a 12-11 win It was a four-game Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference baseball split, the hard way, for New Mexico Highlands University. The Cowboys rallied from
Reed has had a share of the lead going into the final round of all three of his victories — the Wyndham Championship last August, the Humana Challenge in January and a World Golf Championship at Doral that featured the strongest field so far this year. His last two wins were wire-to-wire, including ties. Watson, who won at Riviera three weeks ago, went bogey-free over the final 27 holes, a strong performance on the overhauled Trump National Doral. He closed with a 68, finishing with par after blasting through the palms, into the grandstand and back into the rough. Donaldson wasn’t so fortunate. He hit into a foot on the 17th for his third birdie on the back nine to get within one shot of the lead. From the 18th fairway — after watching Miguel Angel Jimenez go through the green and into the water — he blocked his approach away from the flag and into the back bunker. Donaldson blasted out to just inside 15 feet and missed the par putt. He closed with a 70. Reed finished at 4-under 284, matching the highest winning score at Doral. Mark McCumber won at 284 in 1985. He earned $1.53 million, pushing his season total over $3 million, and he moves to No. 3 in the Ryder Cup standings. Reed, Donaldson and Watson were the only players to finish under par. Woods raised more questions about his health — and his game — with the Masters just over a month away. He beaned and bloodied a spectator on the opening hole and missed a 10-foot birdie putt. He beaned another spectator on No. 3, kicking the ball back into the fair-
a 10-2 deficit after the fourth inning to score 10 runs over the final four frames for a 12-11 win in Brandt Field on Sunday afternoon. NMHU (7-10 overall, 4-3 RMAC) scored the winning run on Andrew Ratterman’s RBI single with one-out in the
way, only he followed that with a shot into the water and made bogey. Woods made two more bogeys over the next three holes and was an afterthought. He said the pain intensified after his bunker shot on the sixth. Woods had his left foot in the sand and his right foot flexed against the lip of the bunker. “That’s what set it off and then it was done after that,” he said. “Just see if I could actually manage … keep the spasms at bay.” Woods has played only four tournaments, and only twice went 72 holes. He missed the 54-hole cut at Torrey Pines, tied for 41st in Dubai and withdrew at the Honda Classic. He is scheduled to make only one more start — Bay Hill in two weeks — before Augusta National. The other guy in the red shirt and black pants played like he knew what was doing with the lead. Reed left no doubt early that it would be his tournament to win. His two-shot lead dwindled to one after a bogey from the bunker on the second hole, and that was as close as it got until it no longer mattered. He knocked in a 25-foot birdie from the back of the green at No. 3, He holed an 18-foot birdie putt on the tough par-3 fourth. Jason Dufner, playing in the final group, went into the water on the fourth to begin his quick slide. Reed made par on the next nine holes, and only in the final hour was the outcome ever in doubt. Reed saved par from the bunker on Nos. 11, 13 and 15. His only bogey came on a 3½-foot putt he missed at No. 14.

Jordan Goliat completed the comeback when his foul ball to left field scored Javier Ledford for a one-run lead. NMHU returns to the field next weekend when it plays a four-game set against Metro State in Denver. The New Mexican

CLASS AAAA
Española turns up the volume Lady Sundevils look to get past noise of quarterfinals, take down No. 4 Gallup
Continued from Page A-1

T
he radio was turned all the way up, and it was up to the Española Valley Lady Sundevils to find a way to deal with it. Saturday morning was just the dress rehearsal to what awaits them Tuesday night at the Class AAAA State Girls Basketball Tournament in The Pit. It will be a clash of colors — fifth-seeded Española’s red and gold versus the black and orange of the No. 4 Gallup Lady Bengals — both on the court and in the stands for the marquee AAAA quarterfinals matchup, which is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. That was why Lady Sundevils head coach Ray Romero had the volume turned up in Edward Medina Gymnasium for practice — he doesn’t expect the players or the coaches to be able to communicate verbally over the din of noise. “We had the music on pretty loud while we were running some things out there,” said Romero, the first-year head coach. “We couldn’t hear a whole lot, but that’s what we’re trying to do — run things with it loud.” Romero knows that the Gallup faithful will be in full throat with a semifinal berth on the line, but he believes that the Lady Sundevils are starting to add numbers to their bandwagon. He caught a glimpse of it during Friday’s opening-round game against No. 12 Belen. When the Lady Eagles tied it at 27 midway through the third quarter, it was the Sundevils’ fans in Edward Medina who gave Española a boost. The Lady Sundevils outscored Belen 12-3 afterward and took a 39-30 lead on their way to a 54-42 win. Romero said it was one of the largest crowds the Lady Sundevils have had at home, and he feels the program is developing the kind of follow the boys program has. “I think [the players] are getting used to it,” Romero said. “I think they are learning from going to the boys games. And I think people who follow the boys program are starting to support both programs now.” If anyone should know, it’s Romero. He was an assistant coach with Española’s boys program for six years before taking over the girls program in July 2013. Romero said the fan base grew as the Sundevils became regular fixtures in The Pit. In 2010, when the program played Roswell for the AAAA title, the New Mexico Activities Association had to stop selling tickets 90 minutes before the game. The Lady Sundevils have made it to The Pit four times since 2010, when they reached the AAAA semifinals, and Romero believes that will help build the brand name for the program. Still, he acknowledges that the support for girls programs like Gallup and Shiprock, which plays in the game before the AAAA finale, is what

Española wants. “We are trying to do similar things like the boys did,” Romero said. “I know what Shiprock and Gallup have, and I hope that a lot of fans will be there on Tuesday night.” Regardless of who shows up, the Lady Sundevils still have to contend with the Lady Bengals on the court. Española will find a familiar theme leading up to this game. Gallup’s Ni’asia McIntosh is a 6-foot-1 post, who will attract a lot of attention from Española. The Lady Sundevils, however, have plenty of practice at defending strong post players. This season, they faced Santa Fe High’s Sabrina Lozada-Cabbage five times as well as Los Lunas and its 6-foot-2 post, Teige Zeller. Los Lunas won the Dec. 12 game in the final seconds by a 52-50 count. The
challenge for the Lady Sundevils, though, will be to find a balance. Española also must pay attention to the bevy of outside shooters the Lady Bengals have. When the combination of McIntosh and shooters hits the right note, the Lady Bengals can be difficult to stop. As an example, Romero refers to Gallup’s 78-49 shellacking of third-seed Albuquerque St. Pius X on Jan. 15. “They’re a handful,” Romero said. “They like to run and play a lot of man-to-man [defense], so we have to prepare for that. I know what they can bring, so we’ve got to really work hard defensively and not let it get away from us.” If the Lady Sundevils can’t, no amount of preparation for the Lady Bengals and the noise will overcome that.
We had the music on pretty loud while we were running some things “ out there. We couldn’t hear a whole lot, but that’s what we’re trying to do
— run things with it loud.” Lady Sundevils head coach Ray Romero
‘Go ahead and celebrate tonight, but tomorrow is a new day.’ We always forgot about whatever happened, no matter if we lost that day or if we won that day. Frankly, I think we have them to thank for keeping every one of us humble and on track.” The Demonettes also kept their focus by setting a few goals during the course of the season, like winning all of the regular-season tournaments in which they played. They won their own Capital City Invitational, the Santa Fe Indian School Lady Braves Classic and Albuquerque Sandia Preparatory’s Sundevil Invitational and pretended each one was a state championship. “Throughout the season, we made short-term goals,” junior post Sabrina Lozada-Cabbage said. “The state championship was in the back of our minds, but we knew we had to make short-term goals to get there.” The second-seeded Demonettes are off to a good start in their current tournament as they sailed past No. 15 Grants 67-45 in Toby Roybal Memorial Gymnasium in the first round on Friday. In doing so, they have a rematch with the team that crushed their hopes last year as they face No. 7 Roswell at 1:15 p.m. Tuesday in The Pit. While Santa Fe High will be thinking about revenge, the players also know that they can’t let their emotions clog their minds and have the Lady Coyotes send them packing once again. “There’s always that revenge factor, but I think it’s going to be just another game for us,” Martinez said. “We can’t let that whole revenge thing get to our heads.” The Demonettes have been thinking about this tournament and this game all year, but is this also their last chance at a state championship? Santa Fe High is moving up to the new Class AAAAAA. They caught a glimpse of a future district foe in Volcano Vista, which crushed the Demonettes 61-31 on Dec. 3. Some of the players just finished with volleyball, so their basketball skills might have been a little rusty, leaving Chavez to believe that this should not be a sign of things to come. “It was probably too tough of a game for me to schedule early,” Chavez said. “Next year, we’ll play them at the end of the year, and hopefully we’ll be ready to go. I think we’re going to compete at that level, so I’m pretty excited about that.” Even though Santa Fe High will be playing bigger schools next year, many on the team still think they have the returning talent to compete for a state championship. “I think we have a good shot at it next year,” Herrera said. “I definitely think we can make the state tournament. It’s all about being smart and fundamental.” “It will be a tougher road, but I think we can make a run for it,” Lozada-Cabbage added. Regardless of where their expectations are for next year and beyond, the team knows what it wants this year. “Anything short of a state championship would be disappointing,” Chavez said. After waiting for so long, it definitely would be.

Northern teams aim to upset Class AAA stronghold
CLASS AA
Mora’s morning blues Rangerettes hope to break early game losing streak with win over Hatch Valley
By James Barron The New Mexican
Just call them the party crashers. For most of the girls basketball season, Class AAA has had a definite pecking order. There were the Shiprock Lady Chieftains, the Lovington Lady Wildcats, the Portales Lady Rams and the Albuquerque Hope Christian Lady Huskies — and then there was everybody else. As the season hits Albuquerque and The Pit for the AAA quarterfinals on Tuesday, those four teams are still alive, but they have to tend with some unruly guests who want to break the perceived stranglehold on the top four teams in the class. Three of those teams reside in the north. St. Michael’s, the seventh seed, plays No. 2 and two-time defending champion Lovington at 8 a.m. The two Las Vegas schools — No. 5 West Las Vegas and No. 8 Robertson — have afternoon dates. The Lady Dons take on the No. 4 Lady Huskies at 3 p.m., while the Lady Cardinals tangle with No. 1 Shiprock, which is 27-0 this season. At least one coach form “the rest” believes there will be an upset, maybe even two in the next round. “Are they by far superior to the rest?” said Martin Romero, St. Michael’s head coach. “I don’t think that there is that big of a gap as some people might think.” If Romero needs any ammunition, he can point to Santa Fe Indian School’s near upset of No. 3 Portales on Friday. The 14th-ranked Lady Braves sank eight 3-pointers and held a three-point lead late in the game before the Lady Rams rallied for a 63-60 win. And if he needs any more, Romero saw his team stay with Hope Christian for 31/2 quarters before falling 68-50 at home. “We’ve seen moments with Hope where we are quite competitive,” Romero said. “On any given day for a lower seed, if the ball bounces their way, can beat one of those four. And someone is going to get knocked off.” Those are soothing words for Las Vegas Robertson’s Bea Gallegos. The No. 8 Lady Cardinals have the biggest challenge of any of the underdogs, as they play the Lady Chieftains in what promises to be a rockingand-rolling arena at 6:30 p.m. Robertson is coming off a 63-34 blowout of No. 9 Silver, and Gallegos felt it was perhaps her team’s best performance to date. “We actually became aggressive and caused a lot of turnovers and deflections,” Gallegos said. “Once we get that going, it just heightens the energy level, and we are running and gunning like the girls are capable of doing.” For Gallegos, the best part was when she went into the

ark Cassidy is clearly not a morning person. The same goes for the members of the Mora girls basketball team. Considering the Rangerettes’ next time on the hardwood comes Tuesday in an 8 a.m. tipoff in the quarterfinals of the Class AA State Tournament, that’s not good. “Those 8 o’clock games — they’re not good for us,” said Cassidy, Mora’s head coach. “You work all year to get to the playoffs and that’s when you have to play. It’s a challenge.” Seeded No. 3 in the AA draw, the Rangerettes (23-3) are set to face No. 6 Hatch Valley (19-10) in morning action in the Santa Ana Star Center in Rio Rancho. Other quarterfinal games have No. 1 Texico facing No. 8 Eunice, No. 4 Navajo Prep against No. 5 Laguna-Acoma, and No. 2 Tularosa taking on the only lowerseeded team remaining in the bracket, No. 10 Ramah. All four games are in the Star Center, as are Thursday’s semifinals. Friday night’s championship game will be in The Pit. Getting that far for Mora means overcoming the early morning blues. A win in the quarterfinals sets up a 9:45 a.m. outing in the state semifinals. The Rangerettes do have experience in those early games. What they don’t have is success. “We’ve been in that spot twice before and lost both times,” Cassidy said. “It’s a morning jinx, I think. Whatever it is, we’ve struggled playing that early.” As usual, Mora’s Big-Three will have a lot to say about how far the team will go. Seniors Destiny Pacheco and Gerty Herrera are joined by sophomore post Brianna Pacheco atop the team’s statistical leaderboard. The trio combines to average more than 37 points per game to go along with almost 20 rebounds and eight assists. Herrera leads the Rangerettes in scoring at 13.0. The team’s top 3-point shooting threat, she is connecting on 34 percent of her tries from beyond the arc. Brianna Pacheco is a 5-foot-10 presence who pulls down 8.3 rebounds to go along with her 12.1 scoring average. She also spends a lot of time getting chipped in the paint as she ranks as the team’s top free throw shooter in both attempts and percentage. Destiny Pacheco is the classic combo guard, driving and dishing while taking open jumpers or crashing the boards when the need is befitting. While most remaining teams in AA have one outstanding weapon, Mora’s strength is its balance. On paper, the team to beat is Texico. The Lady Wolverines (18-7) have won seven straight and are 14-3 since New Year’s Day. Their lone losses have come to AAA powers Lovington and Portales, as well as Class A’s No. 1 seed, Tatum. “Texico for years was the classic southern team that had good players and ran the half-court offense,” said Anika Amon, Santa Fe Preparatory head coach. “Every time they’d get to state, they had better talent than anybody but always had

trouble when they’d run into a team that pressed on defense and got out and ran.” Prep was sent packing by Texico in last week’s opening round, losing 62-31. “All I can say is Texico learned how to press and play the way the northern teams have,” Amon said. “Imagine a team with southern talent and a northern style of play. That’s what Texico is now. They’re dangerous. Any team that plays them is going to have its hands full.” No. 2 Tularosa (22-4) is the hottest team going, having won 13 straight — all by double figures. The Lady Wildcats are no strangers to people in the Santa Fe area. They reached the finals of the Ben Luján Tournament in Pojoaque back in December, losing to St. Michael’s in the championship game. Tularosa also is coached by a familiar name — Joe Estrada was the varsity assistant at Pojoaque (from 2006-10) and Capital (2002-05). Facing Tularosa is perhaps the most dangerous team still alive. Tenth-seeded Ramah (21-9) has won 12 of its last 13 games and features the most dynamic player in the field, guard Jordyn Lewis. The sophomore is averaging 32 points per game. On top of that, the Lady Mustangs have a high-octane offense that has hit the 90-point barrier twice in the last three games. That includes a 94-68 rout at No. 7 Cuba in the opening round. It was the only win for a team seeded in the bottom half of the AA bracket and made Ramah the only remaining double-
digit seed in any of the six girls classifications. The winner of Tularosa-Ramah would get the winner of the Mora-Hatch game in the semifinals. The 4-5 matchup of Navajo Prep (236) and Laguna-Acoma (23-5) is opposite Texico and Eunice. Navajo Prep has won six in a row and has wins over bigger schools like Kirtland Central, Farmington and Santa Fe Indian School. Laguna-Acoma might actually sport the most impressive résumé of any team left. The Lady Hawks — runners-up in last year’s tournament — have won 13 of their last 14. They ran roughshod over District 3AA. During their current sevengame win streak, they’ve won games by counts of 93-16, 80-14, 63-8, 62-14 and 86-4. Their average margin of victory is 48.3 points during their streak. For Cassidy and Mora, they only number they’re interested in is 8. “If we can just get past the morning game, I’ll be happy,” Cassidy said. “Everyone there is half asleep. It’s a three-hour drive for our fans, and the place is mostly empty. It’s just you and the other team.” Ironically, Tuesday’s game is just one day short of the one-year anniversary of the Rangerettes’ 8 a.m. loss to Clayton in the 2013 quarterfinals, a listless 39-36 loss that also occurred at the Santa Ana Star Center. “Well, we didn’t ask for an early game,” Cassidy said, “but we’ll play it. At least we know what it will be like.”

locker room for the post-game talk, the Lady Cardinals already picked up on a theme she was going to emphasize. “They were like, ‘Coach, we have nothing to lose [against Shiprock],’ ” Gallegos said. “When I heard those words coming out of their mouths, I said, ‘OK, I can feel a little more relaxed.’ ” The atmosphere for the final AAA game of the quarterfinals session will be anything but relaxed. Gallegos expects a large crowd of Shiprock fans to make the trip to Albuquerque, and she’s already planning on making some noise of her own for practice. “My intentions are to blast the radio as loud as I can during practice, and we’ll learn to play through and coach through that,” Gallegos said. It probably won’t be as loud a crowd for the West Las VegasHope Christian game — if only because Hope comes in with a reputation of bringing a small fan base wherever it goes. The Lady Dons are riding the wave of success, having won nine of their last 10 games while also winning the 2AAA regular-season and tournament titles. Jose “Majic” Medina, West Las Vegas head coach, has seen his team of mostly sophomores (six in all) mature over the second half of the season, thanks in part to a nondistrict schedule that included matchups with Portales (a 59-32 loss on Dec. 21), Lovington ( a 61-39 Lady Wildcats win on Jan. 10) and Los Lunas (an 80-43 win by the Lady Tigers on Jan. 16). “That was the plan when making the schedule, and it does pay off playing all that tough nondistrict competition,” Medina said. “Hopefully, we’ve learned from it and it carries over into the postseason for us.” That might be the perfect wave to upset the plans of a topfour party in The Pit on Thursday morning.

My name is Barney. I’m 4 years old and I’m hoping for someone to take me home and love me! I’m full of happy energy and would love to have a companion to hike, jog, play fetch, and snuggle with. I prefer not to share my home with other dogs, and I’m a little fearful of the unpredictable behavior of toddlers, but older children and teenagers would be GREAT company for me. I have very good house manners, and I love to spend time inside with my family. I am neutered and have all my shots and a microchip.

Subject: FRUIT What type of fruit is most closely associated with the given word(s)? (e.g., Eureka. Answer: Lemon.)
Dear Annie: I switched doctors six years ago — and my world fell apart. My new doctor insisted on all kinds of new tests, and I’m glad she did. Simple blood and urine tests let me know that there was a good possibility my kidneys weren’t functioning well. I didn’t know that there are rarely any symptoms until the kidneys are failing. I didn’t know that one in three American adults is at risk for kidney disease. I didn’t know that high blood pressure and diabetes are two of the leading causes of this disease. But I learned quickly that early detection and proper treatment can slow its progress. I learned so much in the following months: why I need to watch my weight, why regular exercise helps and why I need to make sure my high blood pressure is under control. I’ve been able to maintain the same degree of kidney function since being diagnosed, but not without lots of information and changes in my lifestyle. March is National Kidney Month. March 13th is World Kidney Day. Won’t you help me join the National Kidney Foundation in urging Americans to learn about the risk factors and simple blood and urine tests for kidney disease? There are many free kidney health screenings around the country. The National Kidney Foundation at kidney.org provides information about these screenings and about staying healthy. Thank you. — Gail Rae-Garwood, Glendale, Ariz. Dear Gail Rae-Garwood: Thank you so much for sharing your story. We hope our readers will take your advice and check for screenings in their area or discuss their kidney health with their personal physicians. We are sure your letter will help many. Bless you. Dear Annie: We are in our late 60s. We have four children, and
between them, there are 10 grandchildren, ages 2-15. They all live far away, so we don’t get to see them often. For Christmas and birthdays, we spend quite a bit of time and money buying, ordering, wrapping and mailing presents. We never receive a thank-you note, even when we include a selfaddressed envelope. We know you’ve addressed this issue many times. We don’t want to stop sending presents altogether. Should we send a check and stop spending so much energy on gifts? Should we discuss it with the parents, even though we suspect that would create problems? — Frustrated Grandparents Dear Frustrated: It’s perfectly OK to call the parents (and any grandchild) to ask whether your gift was received, saying you worried it was lost en route. Young children need to be taught to thank those who are kind enough to remember them with gifts, and you can try to instill this, even though it is really the parents’ job. And if it would make you feel less put out to send a check, we doubt they would mind. But also suggest to the grandchildren that they acknowledge gifts via email or text. It may not be as proper as a handwritten note, but it is certainly better than nothing, and you are more likely to get a response. Dear Annie: I think “Grandpa in South Dakota” could teach his voracious reader of a grandson cursive writing himself. I have heard of schools that have Cursive Clubs because it is no longer taught. It would be a fun project to do with a grandchild. — I Would Dear Would: An excellent idea. Schools have only so many hours in a day and cannot cover everything. We are sorry to see cursive go, but we understand why and think it’s a great idea to learn these skills outside of school.
