The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico announced Monday that it is acquiring Lovelace Health Plan in a deal both companies said

should give Lovelace’s 108,000 members access to a larger network of providers. Health Care Services Corp., the nation’s largest nonprofit health insurance company, is buying Lovelace though its New Mexico Blue Cross division.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed, and the sale is subject to regulatory approval. Kurt Shipley, president of Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico, promised a smooth transition for Lovelace members, saying the rates and terms

in effect when the sale is finalized will remain through 2014. He expects it to be finalized by year’s end or early next year. Shipley said Lovelace members will have more flexibility

The face of Christ? Landscaper sees holy countenance on stone from Rancho Viejo yard By Tom Sharpe The New Mexican

A Santa Fe landscaper is offering for sale a rock on which he believes he sees the face of Jesus Christ. Paul Marcus said he was finishing up a water feature in a yard at a Rancho Viejo home south of the city when he set up on its end a 40- to 50-pound stone — about 20 inches tall and 16 to 18 inches wide — that he intended to incorporate into the landscape. “I continued to work there a couple of days until I just happened to take a few steps back to see how everything was developing, and then it just popped out at me,” he said. “I just went, ‘Oh, my gosh, look at that!’ … “It’s not uncommon to see faces in rocks, and animal features. But to see the face of Jesus in a rock is unbelievable.” Indeed, the rock, which was found on the property, has the image of

Four days after Typhoon Haiyan struck the eastern Philippines, assistance is only just beginning to arrive. Authorities estimated the storm killed 10,000 or more across a vast swath of the country, and displaced around 660,000 others.

Sweeney Elementary School honors namesake, veterans By Robert Nott The New Mexican

Robert Sweeney still remembers how he reacted back in 1982 when he learned the Santa Fe school board planned to name an elementary school after him. “I almost fell out of my chair that night,” Sweeney recalled. “It’s usually a tradition to name a school after somebody who is dead. I said to myself, ‘My God, am I still alive?’ ” On Monday, the school’s staff and students joined friends and family in honor-

NATION&WORLD Amazon hires USPS for Sunday delivery By Barbara Ortutay The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Amazon is rolling out Sunday package delivery as part of a new deal with the U.S. Postal Service. Delivery started on Sunday to customers in the New York and Los Angeles metropolitan areas, but Amazon and the Postal Service plan to extend service to “a large portion of the U.S. population” next year, the company said. Sunday delivery will be available to all Amazon customers for no extra charge but Amazon expects it will be particularly popular with members of its Prime service, which costs $79 a year and comes with free twoday shipping on many items. “For Prime members, it’s free, for non-Prime members, it’s like any other delivery day of the week,” said Dave Clark, vice president of worldwide operations and customer service at Amazon. Financial terms of the arrangement were not disclosed, but the deal is likely to give the financially ailing Postal Service a boost. Sunday delivery isn’t an entirely new territory for the USPS. Priority Mail Express, its fastest service, offers Sunday and holiday delivery for a small fee. During the holiday shipping rush in December it delivers packages on Sundays.

Across the nation, Americans marked Veterans Day Monday.

President Barack Obama paid tribute to those who have served in the nation’s military, including one of the nation’s oldest veterans, 107-year-old Richard Overton. “This is the life of one American veteran, living proud and strong in the land he helped keep free,” Obama said during a ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. Overton was among those in the audience for the outdoor ceremony on a crisp, sun-splashed Veteran’s Day. Earlier in the day, Overton and other veterans attended a breakfast at the White House.

Parade, no air show The Las Vegas, Nev., parade, billed as the largest Veterans Day parade west of the Mississippi, took Nellis Air Force Base as its theme after government cuts led to cancellation of an air show there. Floats featured zooming planes and trails of exhaust, and contingents of Air Force personnel and trainees marched in powder blue uniforms at intervals during the procession. Retired Air Force mechanic Mark Goldstom, 51, took his 14 year-old son to see the air show last year but spent Monday watching the parade from a lawn chair downtown. “You don’t have the airplanes, but it’s still great,” he said. Goldstom was more disturbed about the reason the air show was canceled this year. “In my opinion, they shouldn’t cut any military or vet spending,” he said. “That’s the last thing they should cut.”

BALTIMORE — The Vatican ambassador to the U.S., addressing American bishops at their first national meeting since Pope Francis was elected, said Monday they should not “follow a particular ideology” and should make Roman Catholics feel more welcome in church. Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano noted the challenges from broader society to Christian teaching. He cautioned that the bishops’ witness to faith would be undermined if they failed to live simply. Francis, in office for eight months, has captured attention for eschewing some of the pomp of the papacy, including his decision to live in the Vatican hotel and his use of an economy car. “There has to be a noticeable lifestyle characterized by simplicity and holiness of life,” said Vigano, the apostolic nuncio based in Washington. “The Holy Father wants bishops in tune with their people.” In a September interview, Francis said Catholic leaders should give greater emphasis to compassion, arguing the church’s focus on abortion, marriage and contraception has been too narrow and alienating. For the last several years, the public sessions of the fall bishops’ assembly have centered on those issues. This year’s meeting gave the first glimpse of how that message was resonating among American leaders. New York Cardinal Timothy Dolan, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, dedicated his speech to persecuted Christians overseas, asking the bishops to make international religious freedom a top priority. He made only a passing reference to the bishops’ own religious freedom campaign. Dozens of Catholic charities and dioceses, along with evangelical colleges and others, are suing the Obama administration over a requirement that employers provide health insurance that includes contraceptive coverage. The bishops say the religious exemption to the rule violates the religious freedom of nonprofit and for-profit employers. The issue is expected to reach the Supreme Court. Several bishops in the general discussion urged fellow church leaders to heed Francis’ call for more attention to the poor. After a presentation on the priorities of the conference, Archbishop Joseph Fiorenza, a former president of the bishops’ conference, rose to say it was “missing this essential element” of a focus on the poor. “It would help our conference be on record as trying to achieve what Pope Francis has put before us.” Dolan is at the end of this threeyear term as conference president. His successor will be elected Tuesday.

Extraordinary aid sustains world economy The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Five years after a global financial crisis erupted, the world’s biggest economies still need to be propped up. They’re growing and hiring a little faster and creating more jobs, but only with extraordinary aid from central banks or government spending. And economists say major countries may need help for years more. From the United States to Europe to Japan, central banks are pumping cash into economies and keeping loan rates near record lows. Even fast-growing China has rebounded from an uncharacteristic slump with the help of government money that’s poured into projects and made loans easily available from stateowned banks. For now, thanks in part to the intervention, the world economy is improving. The International Monetary Fund expects global growth to rise to 3.6 percent in 2014 from 2.9 percent this year. The improvement “does not mean that a sustainable recovery is on firm footing,” Angel Gurria, secretary-general of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, warned last month. He said major economies will need stimulus from “extraordinary monetary policies” to sustain momentum into 2014. Many economists think stimulus will be needed even longer.

Yet these policies carry their own risks: Critics note that the cash the central banks are pumping into the system flows into stocks, bonds and commodities like oil. Their prices can escalate to unsustainable levels and raise the risks of a market crash. Other analysts warn that the easy-money policies could cause runaway inflation in the future. Here’s a look at how major economies are faring: United States: The U.S. economy grew at an unexpectedly solid 2.8 percent annual pace from July through September, and U.S. employers added 204,000 jobs in October. The Fed has been debating whether hiring is healthy

enough to justify slowing its monthly bond purchases. Despite the solid October jobs report, most economists think the Fed won’t reduce its bond buying before early next year. Janet Yellen, who faces a confirming hearing this week for her nomination to lead the Fed starting in January, is expected to sustain its low-rate policies. Even at reduced levels, the bond purchases would continue to stimulate the economy by adding money to the financial system and lowering loan rates to encourage borrowing and spending. The Fed’s purchases have helped offset U.S. government spending cuts. Nariman Behravesh, chief

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Iran and the United States on Monday blamed each other for the failure to reach agreement on a deal to limit Iran’s uranium enrichment in exchange for an easing of Western sanctions. In spite of the accusations, there was some diplomatic progress as Iran promised to offer more information and expanded access to U.N. nuclear inspectors — including more openings at a planned reactor and uranium site. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Iranian envoys had backed away from a wider deal this weekend seeking to ease Western concerns that Tehran could one day develop atomic weapons. Iran’s foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, countered by criticizing Kerry’s remarks, telling an Iranian TV talk show that the American’s “conflicting statements” damaged confidence in the process, adding that “considerable progress was made” in Geneva. The flurry of announcements and comments showed both the complexities and urgency in trying to move ahead on an accord between Iran and world powers after the talks in Geneva failed to produce a deal. With negotiations set to resume next week, Iranian officials promoted a separate pact reached with the U.N. nuclear chief Yukiya Amano as a “roadmap” for greater cooperation and transparency, which could move the talks ahead. But the plans do not mention some of the sites most sought by U.N. teams to probe suspicions of nuclear-related work, notably the Parchin military facility outside Tehran. “It’s an important step forward, but by no means the end of the process,” Amano told The Associated Press in Tehran. “There is still much work to be done.” Western leaders, meanwhile, were keen to display a unified front after reports that France had broken ranks in Geneva and demanded more concessions from Iran on enrichment levels and an under-construction heavy water reactor that produced a greater amount of plutonium byproduct, which could be used in eventual weapons production. Kerry said it was Iran that put the brakes on reaching a first-phase agreement, but gave no details on the Iranian concerns and suggested it was only a matter of time before a formula is found.

stocks and homes. Japan: Japan’s economic recovery has gained momentum since Prime Minister Shinzo Abe took office in late 2012. Under “Abenomics,” the government and central bank have injected money into the economy through stimulus spending and rate cutting. The economy grew at a robust 3.8 percent annual rate from April through June. But economists worry about whether the recovery can be sustained and whether Japan can grow enough to make up in tax revenue what it’s spending on stimulus. Like the Fed, the Bank of Japan could struggle with how to time and carry out a reversal of its easy money policy once the economy improves or if inflation or asset bubbles

emerge as a threat. China: China’s economy grew at a two-decade low of 7.5 percent in the three months that ended in June compared with a year earlier. In response, Beijing launched a mini-stimulus program, spending on railway construction and other public works. It worked: Growth edged up to 7.8 percent from July through September from a year earlier. Yet some economists doubt the gains in China will last. In the latest quarter, more than half the reported growth was due to investment, not trade or consumption. Many economists say China’s continued reliance on government-led investment threatens to produce factories that make goods no one wants and unneeded real estate developments that can’t repay loans.

economist at IHS Global Insight, thinks the U.S. economy will be strong enough to manage without any help from Fed bond purchases by the end of 2014. He sees the Fed raising short-term rates, which it’s kept at a record low near zero since late 2008, sometime in 2015. But weaning the U.S. economy off Fed support, he says, is “tricky. … If you do it too slowly, you could ignite inflation. If you do it too quickly, you run the risk of killing the recovery.” Europe: The 17 countries that use the euro currency are expected to eke out their second straight quarter of growth from July through September. But many economists say the eurozone’s growth might not meet even the feeble 0.3 percent quarterly pace achieved from April through June. The latest quarterly figure will be announced Thursday. The European Central Bank surprised investors last week by cutting its benchmark refinancing rate to a record 0.25 percent. It acted after economic reports exposed the weakness of the recovery. Inflation last month was a scant 0.7 percent. That raised the risk of deflation — a prolonged drop in wages, prices and the value of assets like

Experts: Man, nature behind tragedy prone region, which gets some of the biggest typhoons because of vast expanses of warm water that act as fuel and few pieces of land to slow storms down. Half the storms on an informal list of the strongest ones to hit land in the 20th and 21st centuries ended up striking the Philippines, according to research by Jeff Masters, meteorology director of the Weather Underground. Storms often hit after they’ve peaked in strength or before they get a chance to, but Haiyan struck when it was at its most powerful, based on U.S. satellite observations, Emanuel said. Humans played a big role in this disaster, too — probably bigger than nature’s, meteorologists said. University of Miami hurricane researcher Brian McNoldy figures that 75 percent to 80 percent of the devastation can be blamed on humans. Meteorologists point to extreme poverty and huge growth in population — much of it in vulnerable coastal areas with poor construction, including storm shelters that didn’t hold up against Haiyan. More than 4 out of 10 Filipinos live in a storm-prone vulnerable city of more than 100,000, according to a 2012 World Bank study. The Haiyan-devastated provincial capital of Tacloban nearly tripled from

WASHINGTON — Nature and man together cooked up the disaster in the Philippines. Geography, meteorology, poverty, shoddy construction, a booming population, and, to a much lesser degree, climate change combine to make the Philippines the nation most vulnerable to killer typhoons, according to several scientific studies. And Typhoon Haiyan was one mighty storm. Haiyan slammed the island nation with a storm surge two stories high and some of the highest winds ever measured in a tropical cyclone — 195 mph as clocked by U.S. satellites, or 147 mph based on local reports. An untold number of homes were blown away, and thousands of people are feared dead. “You have a very intense event hitting a very susceptible part of the world. It’s that combination of nature and man,” said MIT tropical meteorology professor Kerry Emanuel. “If one of those ingredients were missing, you wouldn’t have a disaster.” The 7,000 islands of the Philippines sit in the middle of the world’s most storm-

about 76,000 to 221,000 in just 40 years. About one-third of Tacloban’s homes have wooden exterior walls. And 1 in 7 homes have grass roofs, according to the census office. Those factors — especially flimsy construction — were so important that a weaker storm would have still caused almost as much devastation, McNoldy said. “You end up with these kind of urban time bombs, where cities have doubled, tripled, quadrupled in size in 50 years” without good building standards, said Richard Olson, director of the Extreme Events Institute at Florida International University. “It is, I hate to say, an all-toofamiliar pattern.” Scientists say man-made global warming has contributed to rising seas and a general increase in strength in the most powerful tropical cyclones. But they won’t specifically apply these factors to Haiyan, saying it is impossible to attribute single weather events, like the typhoon, to climate change. A 2008 study found that in the northwestern Pacific where Haiyan formed, the top 1 percent of the strongest tropical cyclones over the past 30 years are getting on average about 1 mph stronger each year — a phenomenon some scientists

suspect is a consequence of global warming. “The strongest storms are getting stronger” said study co-author James Kossin of the National Climatic Data Center. Haiyan “is what potentially could be a good example of the kind of the things we’re finding.” Similarly, the Philippines has seen its sea rise nearly half an inch in the past 20 years — about triple the global increase, according to R. Steven Nerem of the University of Colorado. Higher sea levels can add to storm surge, creating slightly greater flooding. Just as human factors can worsen a disaster, they can also lessen it, through stronger buildings, better warnings and a quicker government response. Emanuel said poverty-stricken Bangladesh had much bigger losses of life from cyclones in the 1970s than it does now. The international community built strong evacuation shelters that get used frequently, he said. “The Philippines is one of the most disaster-prone places on Earth,” said Kathleen Tierney, director of the Natural Hazards Center at the University of Colorado. “They’ve got it all. They’ve got earthquakes, volcanoes, floods, tropical cyclones, landslides.”

Desperate: Final count of deceased is likely days away Continued from Page A-1 port along with several commercial and private flights. More than 3,000 people who camped out at the building surged onto the tarmac past a broken iron fence to get on the aircraft. Just a dozen soldiers and several police held them back. Mothers raised their babies high above their heads in the rain, in hopes of being prioritized. One woman in her 30s lay on a stretcher, shaking uncontrollably. Only a small number managed to board. “I was pleading with the soldiers. I was kneeling and begging because I have diabetes,” said Helen Cordial, whose house was destroyed in the storm. “Do they want me to die in this airport? They are stone hearted.” Most residents spent the night under pouring rain wherever they could — in the ruins of destroyed houses, in the open along roadsides and shredded trees. Some slept under tents brought in by the government or relief groups. Local doctors said they were desperate for medicines. Beside the ruined airport tower, at a small makeshift clinic with shattered windows, army and air force medics said they had treated around 1,000 people since the typhoon for cuts, bruises, lacerations, deep wounds. “It’s overwhelming,” said Air Force Capt. Antonio Tamayo. “We need more medicine. We cannot give anti-tetanus vaccine shots because we have none.” International aid groups and militaries are rushing assistance to the region, but little has arrived. Government officials and police and army officers have all been caught up in the disaster themselves, hampering coordination. The USS George Washington aircraft carrier was expected to arrive off the coast in about two days, according to the Pentagon. A similar-sized U.S. ship, and its fleet of helicopters capable of dropping tons of water daily and evacuating wounded, was credited with saving many lives after the 2004 Asian tsunami. The United Nations said in a statement that the $25 million would be used to pay for emergency shelter materials and household items, and for assistance with the provision of emergency health services, safe water supplies and sanitation facilities. “We have deployed specialist teams, vital logistics support and dispatched critical supplies — but we have to do more and faster,” said U.N. humanitarian chief Valerie Amos, who was flying to the

country. Joselito Caimoy, a 42-year-old truck driver, was one of the lucky ones at Tacloban airport. He was able to get his wife, son and 3-year-old daughter on a flight out. They embraced in a tearful goodbye, but Caimoy stayed behind to guard what’s left of his home and property. “There is no water, no food,” he said. “People are just scavenging in the streets. People are asking food from relatives, friends. The devastation is too much … the malls, the grocery stories have all been looted. They’re empty. People are hungry. And they [the authorities] cannot control the people.” The dead, decomposing and stinking, litter the streets or remain trapped in the debris. At a small naval base, eight swollen

corpses — including that of a baby — were submerged in water brought in by the storm. Officers had yet to move them, saying they had no body bags or electricity to preserve them. The official death toll remained at 942. However, with shattered communications and transportation links, the final count was likely days away, and presidential spokesman Edwin Lacierda said “we pray” it does not surpass 10,000. “I don’t believe there is a single structure that is not destroyed or severely damaged in some way — every single building, every single house,” U.S. Marine Brig. Gen. Paul Kennedy said after taking a helicopter flight over Tacloban on Monday. He spoke on the tarmac at the airport, where two Marine C-130 cargo planes were parked, engines running,

unloading supplies. Authorities said at least 9.7 million people in 41 provinces were affected by the typhoon, known as Haiyan elsewhere in Asia but called Yolanda in the Philippines. It was likely the deadliest natural disaster to beset this poor Southeast Asian nation. Authorities said they had evacuated 800,000 people ahead of the typhoon, but many evacuation centers proved to be no protection against the wind and rising water. The Philippine National Red Cross, responsible for warning the region and giving advice, said people were not prepared for a storm surge. “Imagine America, which was prepared and very rich, still had a lot of challenges at the time of Hurricane Katrina, but what we had was three times more than what they received,” said Gwendolyn Pang, the group’s executive director. In Tacloban, residents stripped malls, shops and homes of food, water and consumer goods. Officials said some of the looting smacked of desperation, but in other cases, people hauled away TVs, refrigerators, Christmas trees and even a treadmill. An Associated Press reporter said he saw about 400 special forces and soldiers patrolling downtown to guard against further chaos. Philippine President Benigno Aquino III declared a “state of national calamity,” allowing the central government to release emergency funds quicker and impose price controls on staple goods. He said the two worst-hit provinces, Leyte and Samar, had witnessed “massive destruction and loss of life” but that elsewhere casualties were low. The Philippines, an archipelago nation of more than 7,000 islands, is annually buffeted by tropical storms and typhoons, which are called hurricanes and cyclones elsewhere. The impoverished and densely populated nation of 96 million people is in the northwestern Pacific, right in the path of the world’s No. 1 typhoon generator, according to meteorologists. Even by the standards of the Philippines, however, Haiyan was an especially large catastrophe. Its winds were among the strongest ever recorded, and it appears to have killed more people than the previous deadliest Philippine storm, Thelma, in which about 5,100 people died in the central Philippines in 1991. The country’s deadliest disaster on record was the 1976 magnitude-7.9 earthquake that triggered a tsunami in the Moro Gulf in the southern Philippines, killing 5,791 people.

How to Help The following groups are assisting in the relief effort: Red Cross The American Red Cross said it has deployed two people to assist with assessments in the Philippines and activated its family tracing services. It asked those who want to support relief efforts to mail a check to their local Red Cross chapter, with “Philippines Typhoons and Flood” in the memo line. World Vision World Vision said it is putting together resources to assist 1.2 million people, including food, hygiene kits, emergency shelter and protection. It asked for one-time donations to be made at worldvision.org.

Sweeney: Educator served on board for 18 years, 12 as president Continued from Page A-1 Center and ultimately replaced by the Santa Fe Community Convention Center. The younger Sweeney, who graduated from Santa Fe High School in 1947, spent about 43 years as an educator, primarily working in physical education as a gym teacher, basketball coach and athletic director. He became a member of the school board in 1964 and served as its president for 12 of his 18 years on the board — still a record for longevity in the district. Sweeney said that the district faced many of the same challenges during his time on the school board as it does today, including a disappointing graduation rate — though he estimated it was about 70 percent, as opposed to the current 60 percent — and crowding in some schools. As for long, talky meetings, Sweeney remembered one that ran until 4 in the morning: “Some of the meetings got really hot, like that one. It was

about closing Tesuque [Elementary School]. It was under-enrolled and fiscally not wise to keep it open. I voted to close it, but I was outvoted.” Sweeney Elementary School opened as Sunset Elementary School in 1981, Sweeney recalled. It was at his last board meeting, early in 1982, that the president of the board, Eluid Martinez, suggested that the district name the new school after Sweeney. Monday’s event, held in the school’s gym, included the Pledge of Allegiance, a student rendition of “God Bless America” and brief speeches by Superintendent Joel Boyd, school board President Linda Trujillo, Principal Theresa Ulibarri and others. Ulibarri used the occasion to also pay tribute to school staff members who have served in the military, including George Bayless, Army; Raymond Sanchez, Marines; Philip Travers, Navy; and Danny Narvaiz, Army; as well as Mark Konda, Marines, who is married to fourth-grade Sweeney

teacher Stephanie Konda. Konda told the students that the letters and cards they write to military personnel are very important for morale and that he enjoyed receiving them while he was stationed in Afghanistan. Some of the students in the assembly clearly knew who Robert Sweeney is, thanks to their teachers, who prepared them for Monday’s event. Fifth-grader Adrianna Marin said Sweeney is an important man because “they named a school after him.” She also said she plans to graduate from high school, go to college and become a teacher. And someday, she hopes they name a school after her. “It would make me happy,” she said. But one third-grade girl sitting nearby seemed a little confused by the commotion. Asked who Robert Sweeney is, she replied, “He’s the one who was named after the school.” Contact Robert Nott at 986-3021 or rnott@sfnewmexican.com.

‘A trailblazer for marriage equality’ Pojoaque woman who won emergency court order to marry longtime partner dies at 44; couple among plaintiffs in gay marriage case By Tom Sharpe

The New Mexican

Jennifer Martin NeumanRoper, who while suffering from terminal brain cancer won an emergency court order that allowed her to marry her longtime partner during a cascade of same-sex weddings in New Mexico this summer, died on Friday. She was 44. Her death certificate is the first in the state in which another woman, Angelique NeumanRoper, is listed as the spouse of a deceased female. The New Mexico chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, which announced her death Monday on its website, had sought an emergency court order allowing Jen Roper to marry while her health was rapidly deteriorating. The Pojoaque couple held an impromptu service in the lobby of the Christus St. Vincent Cancer Center on Aug. 21, even though a

larger case on the legality of samesex marriage in New Mexico hasn’t been resolved. The couple then had a more formal ceremony with family and friends in October in Pojoaque. “Angelique and I have been married in our hearts for 21 years and raised three wonderful children together,” Roper told The New Mexican in August. “Because of my illness, we do not have the luxury of waiting years for the courts to decide whether loving, committed same-sex couples can marry in New Mexico. For us, the time is now.” Not until five days later, on Aug. 26, did a Second Judicial District judge rule that Bernalillo and Santa Fe counties must immediately begin allowing same-sex couples to marry. The NeumanRopers are listed among six plaintiffs in the case, captioned Griego v. Oliver, now on appeal to the state Supreme Court. Jennifer Neuman-Roper is survived by her wife and sons

passing,” said ACLU-New Mexico Executive Director Peter Simonson. “She was a beloved member of her community, a loving mother and wife, and a trailblazer for marriage equality in New Mexico. Her participation in the New Mexico freedom to marry case helped open the door for thousands of same-sex couples to celebrate their love and commitment in marriage here in our state. She will be missed.”

Bret Collins was one of the many people who adopted one of the 40-plus dogs seized by the Santa Fe Sheriff’s Office because of what law enforcement called “unsanitary” living conditions on an Edgewood property. At first, Collins said, the dog, now named Abbey Road, was skittish around Collins and his girlfriend, Nicole Lawe. But when the 25-pound canine started licking his hair, Collins knew he had started earning the dog’s trust. “It’s like we’re part of her pack,” Collins said Monday in a phone interview. Collins and Lawe adopted Abbey for their other dog, Penny, back in May when the first batch of dogs owned by ex-veterinarian Debra Clopton Debra Clopton became available faces three for adoption. He said he and his girlfriend had heard about the felony counts of case, and they wanted to help the possession of a animals however they could. dangerous drug, “I felt bad,” Collins said. “No one misdeanimal should be left in that conmeanor count dition.” of practicing A grand jury has since indicted Clopton on three felony counts veterinary medof possession of a dangerous icine without a drug, one misdemeanor count of license and 48 practicing veterinary medicine misdemeanor without a license and 48 misdecharges of animeanor charges of animal cruelty. In connection to those charges, mal cruelty. county deputies arrested Clopton on Friday. She was in jail for less than a day before she secured a $10,000 bond, and now awaits an arraignment hearing on Dec. 6 before state District Judge Mary Marlowe. But Clopton entered the public’s eye when the sheriff’s office first found 48 dogs on Clopton’s property in early April after neighbors complained of constant barking. One person even reported seeing one dog kill another during a scuffle. Those canines were relocated to the Santa Fe Animal Shelter & Humane Society. The influx of canines initially flooded the humane society’s holding pens, and the shelter had to outsource some of the animals to the local dog daycare, Santa Fe Tails. Officials had to euthanize three dogs, and shelter staff later put down a few more because of health issues, shelter spokesman Ben Swan said. But most of the dogs have since been adopted, including the 42 puppies born at the shelter between April and May. As of November, Swan said only one of the original Edgewood 48 remain at the shelter, a canine named Angel, who is currently in foster care. He said the dog needs to spend more time with people before the shelter staff can put her up for adoption. Additionally, Santa Fe Tails, a dog daycare, helped the shelter with a few of the dogs that needed more specialized care. Joey Padilla, a co-owner of Tails, said the biggest challenge with the dogs from Edgewood was their fear of people. They didn’t socialize well, which turned off potential adopters who didn’t want a skittish dog. “People can learn a lot from seeing dogs,” Padilla said. “These dogs were stressed, and they came out unsocialized and terrified. No dog should have to go through something like that.” Regardless, Padilla said Tails staff was able to successfully find homes for 10 of the 12 dogs they received from the shelter. The remaining two, Batman, a black-and-tan 40-pound dog, and Fiona, a white-and-brown-spotted 35-pound canine, are still available for adoption. Padilla said those who are patience would do well with the canines, and he said the animals do become more social after time. “These guys deserve a good home,” Padilla said. “I don’t care how long it takes.” Another one of the older dogs, Clifford, has found a permanent home at Kindred Spirits Animal Sanctuary. Ulla Pedersen, founder and director of the sanctuary, said Clifford, who is blind, has settled into his routine nicely. She said he likes being around the horses and other dogs at the sanctuary.

Clopton’s interaction with the Santa Fe animal shelter has been a long one. In April, the ex-veterinarian fought to keep custody of her animals, but she would have faced a $27,000 fee for 30 days of humane society care. Instead, Clopton tried to claim 10 canines, the amount allowed by a Santa Fe County ordinance. Clopton then took out a $6,000 surety bond to pay for the time the animals spent in the humane society’s care, and she had to spend an additional $6,000 a month to cover the cost of care until the end of her criminal trial. But in mid-September, Clopton failed to pay her bail and forfeited the 10 remaining dogs to the humane society. Clopton also was briefly wanted on a bench warrant because she missed a hearing in early September, although the court later quashed that warrant. She also has been charged with animal cruelty in Bernalillo Magistrate Court, according to the New Mexico Courts online record system.

In brief State sees low enrollment for expanded Medicaid N.M. grilled over speed monitoring The state of New Mexico for decades has been bluffing drivers with highway signs warning “Speed monitored by aircraft,” KOB TV reported. And the obsolete signs may soon be coming down, a state Department of Transportation spokesman told a reporter for the Albuquerque station. “We think they serve as a speed deterrent,” department spokesperson Melissa Dosher was quoted as saying about the dozen such signs posted around the state — including four on Interstate 25 near Santa Fe and Albuquerque. Dosher told KOB that New Mexico State Police used speedmonitoring aircraft in the late 1980s and early 1990s, but there is no record of whether the agency ever asked the Department of Transportation to remove the signs. State police confirmed that officers use a helicopter for search and rescue efforts, the report said, but no longer use aircraft for speed enforcement.

Justices uphold murder conviction New Mexico’s highest court has upheld the murder conviction of a Las Vegas, N.M., man for the 2009 shooting death of another San Miguel County man. Louis Benavidez was sentenced to life in prison for killing Kevin Duran outside of the home where the victim lived with his girlfriend and her six children, including a teenage son who fought with Benavidez two days before the shooting. The state Supreme Court ruled last week there was sufficient evidence to support Benavidez’s first-degree murder conviction, but the justices reversed a conviction for evidence tampering, which added three years to his sentence. Police never found the gun used to shoot Duran and the court said there wasn’t evidence to show the jury he hid the gun to avoid prosecution.

Department: Thousands of N.M. residents eligible for coverage have not applied By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

Thousands of people who qualify for insurance under New Mexico’s expanded Medicaid program still haven’t applied for the service, according to the state Human Services Department. They have until Dec. 2 to choose an insurance plan that will kick in Jan. 1, 2014. A total of 25,309 New Mexicans had applied for Medicaid since Oct. 1, and of those applicants, about 3,600 qualified under the expanded program for lowincome residents, department spokesman Matt Kennicott said. That’s a fraction of the 219,000 people who the state figures are eligible for coverage through the state’s Centennial Care program.

$1,321 per month or less in New Mexico will qualify for the program, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Other qualifying incomes are two-person households making less than $1,783; three-person households making less than $2,246; and fourperson households making less than $2,708. Pregnant women who make up to 250 percent of the poverty level — $3,231 per month for two people and $4069 for three — also qualify. People enrolled in Centennial Care will have until March 31 to change insurers if they want to. Native Americans don’t have to enroll in Centennial Care unless they need nursing home care or already have both Medicare and Medicaid. The state has been reaching out to potential enrollees, according to a report presented last week to the legislative Health and Humans Services Committee. More than 10,000 people have attended 250 outreach events hosted by the department.

Location, location and location are the three most

important characteristics of any bank or lending organization. Interest rates on savings accounts are important, but if you can’t talk to a person live to answer questions about mortgages, loans or better saving tools, your money should be invested and protected elsewhere. New Mexico Bank and Trust leverages a local business’ knowledge and expertise with a tremendous breadth of banking services to deliver a focus on customer service second to none. Santa Fe has long enjoyed New Mexico Bank and Trust’s presence as an alternative to national banks. Customer service is a focus for both consumer and business accounts. “The focus on customer service with expertise in the Santa Fe area is vital,” said Alan Austin, Santa Fe President for New Mexico Bank and Trust. “Employees here not only know the area but also have extensive knowledge about banking services, navigating the nuances of northern New Mexico’s real estate markets and the special lending tools available here. Whatever a client or customer needs, we can find a way to accomplish their goals,” he said. Alan highlighted New Mexico Bank and Trust’s mortgage focus as a strength amongst area banks. A home is one of the largest purchases an individual or family will make, so it’s best to find the right mortgage. “NMB&T has a tremendous amount of capital to lend to individuals and families looking to buy their first home, upgrade to a larger home or even refinance their current home,”

Police seeking pay hike near impasse LAS VEGAS, N.M. — The union that represents Las Vegas police officers says its members are underpaid and deserve a 5 percent raise. The Las Vegas Police Officers Association has been negotiating with city officials on a new contract but the two sides haven’t been able to strike a deal despite meeting with a mediator. Association spokesman officer Chris Lopez tells the Las Vegas Optic the only issue the union is pushing is the 5 percent raise. That works out to roughly 80 additional cents per hour for line officers. City Manager Tim Dodge said he can’t discuss negotiations in detail but hopes the two sides can reach a deal. Lopez says officers earn about $16 an hour and risk their lives daily. Some have left for higherpaying departments.

Almost 70,000 currently receiving health benefits from the state through coverage insurance or family planning will automatically be enrolled in expanded Medicaid on Jan. 1. They don’t have to file a new application, the department said. New Mexico is among 26 states moving forward with Medicaid expansion as part of the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation. The expanded coverage officially begins Jan. 1, 2014, for those who qualify. Participants under the expanded program will choose between Medicaid plans offered by Blue Cross Blue Shield, Molina Health Care, Presbyterian Health and United Healthcare Community. The new Medicaid program will include preventative care, mental health services, substance abuse services and dental care.

Man arrested in Navajo Nation shooting ALBUQUERQUE — Federal authorities say a Shiprock man accused of shooting and wounding a woman at a Navajo Nation housing complex has been arrested. They say 25-year-old Patrick Lynn Benally was taken into custody by U.S. Marshals near Morgan Lake. The FBI was offering $1,500 reward for Benally’s arrest and conviction. He’s scheduled to appear Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Albuquerque. A federal arrest warrant charges Benally with assault resulting in serious bodily injury, assault with a dangerous weapon and use of a firearm in the commission of a crime of a violence. Authorities say Benally is accused of shooting a woman in Fruitland, N.M.

Arizona to crack down on texting drivers The Associated Press

TUCSON, Ariz. — The Arizona Department of Public Safety plans to crack down on drivers who are distracted by texting or their cellphones in general. The enforcement effort will begin in January and be accompanied by an education campaign, department spokesman Bart Graves said. Graves told the Arizona Daily Star that the plan was being discussed before the traffic-related death of a department officer in May. But he said officer Tim Huffman’s death highlights the problems with distracted driving. Records obtained last month by the newspaper show investigators believe the driver of a big-rig truck, Jorge Espinoza, was looking at cellphone photos of scantily clad women when he slammed into police cars and emergency vehicles on Interstate 8 in Yuma County. Huffman was in a Department of Public Safety cruiser hit by the truck and was killed. “What occurred on I-8 was tragic and totally preventable,” he said. “It’s not just because we lost an officer. It’s because we’re losing people all across the state all the time.” The Legislature has repeatedly rejected a ban on texting while driving. But Graves says a state law on “speed not reasonable and prudent” will be used to cite distracted drivers. “Any speed is not reasonable when you’re texting, because you’re not fully in control of your driving,” Graves said. Extra enforcement will be coupled with media messages, brochures, videos and social media. “We want the driving public to know one true fact,” Graves said. “When you’re on the highway, going 55-65 mph, your full attention should be on your driving and on nothing else.” In the crash that killed Huffman, trucker Espinoza was driving an empty fuel tanker 65 mph on cruise control. The Yuma trucker has pleaded not guilty to 20 felony charges including one count of second-degree murder, 13 counts of endangerment and six of criminal damage.

California eyes cloud seeding to bolster snowpack

The Associated Press

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — With California experiencing a second straight dry year, water agencies are turning to cloud seeding to help pad the state’s snowpack. The practice has been around for decades, but cloud seeding has gone mainstream as a result of new technology and research showing its reliable, the Sacramento Bee reported Monday. In a report this year, the California Department of Water Resources estimated cloud seeding projects generate 400,000 acre-feet of additional water supply annually in the state. That’s about half the volume of Folsom Reservoir. An acre-foot is enough water to supply a typical household for a year. “The message is starting to sink in that this is a costeffective tool,” said Jeff Tilley, director of weather modification at the Desert Research Institute in Reno, which practices cloud seeding in the Lake Tahoe Basin and Eastern Sierra Nevada. “The technology is better; we understand how to do cloud seeding much better. And because we know how to do it more effectively, it’s definitely taken more seriously.” Cloud seeding involves spraying fine particles of silver iodide into a cloud system. Under the right conditions, the silver iodide causes water droplets in the clouds to form ice crystals that grow larger and turn into snowflakes. The goal is to increase the amount of precipitation that would otherwise fall.

IMMIGRANT COUPLE CRAFTING A JEWELRY BUSINESS

The New Mexican

ayte Cárdenas and Jacinto Arriaga came from Mexico to Santa Fe 16 years ago with the dream of owning their own business. Cárdenas thought that a food truck would be the easiest to run, as she’s worked at restaurants since she moved from Chihuahua. But Arriaga had been working for a jeweler designing jewelry for the past 11 years, and he told his wife, Cárdenas, that they should take a shot at designing their own. Since they got married six years ago, the couple have been designing their own silver jewelry, adopting a form of art they both said they wouldn’t have done if they were still in Mexico. Not that they have forgotten their home country. They have found inspiration in Aztec and Maya symbols when creating their jewelry. But they also have used turquoise rocks from Arizona and New Mexico in their pieces — something commonly seen in New Mexican jewelry. “I believe that our pre-Hispanic history isn’t valued as much, and it’s not studied enough,” Cárdenas said. In 2011, the couple had their business — Sophie’s Gifts, named after their 2-year-old daughter — near the Plaza for about six months, but had to close it because rent was too high and sales weren’t keeping up. Since then, they have been selling their work at shows usually frequented by American Indians selling their crafts. Cárdenas said that among all the American Indian artisans, they’re the only Mexicans. “When we went to sell our jewelry at a Santo Domingo [Pueblo] show, we went with some hope to sell at a place where American Indians are experts at making jewelry, so we went with low expectations,” she said. “But we were surprised, because we did well in selling.”

Mayte Cárdenas works on jewelry in her home last week.

She added that many Native artists have given them tips on how to make their craft better. In order to start their business, Cárdenas, along with her mother, started taking jewelry-making classes at Santa Fe Community College. She and her husband began with a few semesters of those classes and history books on the Aztecs and Mayas. So far, they have created more than 500 pieces and have slowly sold a few hundred at craft shows. “We’ve been growing our business, not just in sales and quantity, but also in quality,” she said. “We want [our jewelry] to have a better value, not just monetary, but have the value of our culture and at the same to have [New Mexican] culture, too.” Arriaga said that when he first moved to Santa Fe and took up a jewelry-making job, he always saw it as mundane work to pay the

bills and feed the family. But now that he creates his own pieces, he appreciates the craft. Donald Lanzer, one of Cárdenas’ teachers at the community college and a local jeweler, said that he was happy to hear one of his former students has used the knowledge to pursue a new career. “It’s just very gratifying as a teacher to see somebody take the knowledge and apply it and turn it into a potential business and potential money,” he said. “It’s always nice when you can mix your own culture with your own stuff.” The couple will be showcasing their jewelry from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at a crafts show at Kingston Residence of Santa Fe, 2400 Legacy Court.

FINANCE NEW MEXICO

Delegating frees small-business owners to pursue growth For The New Mexican

ooner or later, an entrepreneur has to know his limits and acknowledge that some tasks can and should be done by others to allow him to focus on the bigger picture. That requires delegation — trusting others, whether subordinates, partners or independent contractors, to complete an assignment as directed. As obvious as that sounds, an entrepreneur can have a hard time trusting others with his “baby,” ultimately defeating many business objectives and stunting the company’s natural growth. Many businesses in New Mexico start small, with the owner doing all the work that’s required to get off the

ground. Success only increases the workload, and the owner who doesn’t delegate eventually will find her attention pulled away from mission-critical decisions into fussing with day-today minutia — answering phones or emails from clients or vendors, filing, blogging — or running in place trying to accomplish tasks outside her expertise. For example, keeping track of revenue and costs is essential to knowing how a business is doing, but the owner doesn’t need to do the bookkeeping and tax preparation. For the business owner, delegation involves letting go of some aspects of her creation and trusting others to do the job competently. It’s not the same as “dumping” a project and forgetting

about it. Successful delegation involves communicating expectations and monitoring results, intervening only when necessary for course correction.

What to delegate Some jobs should be delegated, but others require direct involvement of the business owner. To decide which duties are appropriate for delegation and which belong on his to-do list, the owner should identify every task that’s involved in operating the business, from sweeping floors to pursuing equity investors. His goal should be to reserve for himself the strategic activities that affect the company’s longterm direction. For example, entering contracts,

acquiring competitors and developing a new product are higher-level challenges that demand an owner’s attention, but restocking empty shelves is a routine task that any employee can do with proper training and direction. Once he’s decided what’s appropriate to delegate, the business owner should identify how each task should be done and communicate clear directions and expectations to those who will complete the task. Some tasks — such as accounting or wiring a home for electricity — require strict procedures for safety or legal reasons, but other tasks allow for creativity and can be accomplished just as effectively using a variety of approaches. Knowing when the process is critical and when it isn’t separates man-

agers from micromanagers when it comes to delegation. Mistakes will be made and instructions will be misunderstood, but the business owner should see poor outcomes as an opportunity to improve his delegation skills — not as an excuse to fall back on controlling behaviors. With time and practice, the business owner will become more comfortable with the art of delegation, and his team will respond positively and productively to the higher level of trust.

N.M. pueblos damaged by floods face backlog in federal disaster funds By Laura Paskus

New Mexico In Depth

hen September’s heavy, prolonged rains sent floodwaters rushing down streambeds and arroyos and into towns and homes, many of New Mexico’s rural, American Indian communities found themselves inundated with mud and water. After natural disasters, the federal government steps in, assessing damage and allocating funds — and at the end of October, President Barack Obama again ordered federal aid for flood victims in New Mexico. But as some communities are finding, an infusion of federal cash into the state doesn’t mean immediate changes on the ground. With new flood disaster funding on its way from the federal government, almost $12.5 million from 2011 and 2012 remains unspent in a special account. Until Friday, that number was closer to $15 million. After New Mexico In Depth spent six weeks calling and requesting documents from state and federal officials to understand why the money — most of it designated for Santa Clara Pueblo — remained unspent, the state announced Friday that it was making $2.8 million available to the pueblo, which has been repeatedly hit by floodwaters. Following President Obama’s 2011 disaster declaration, the Federal Emergency Management Agency sent $19.4 million to New Mexico for communities including Santa Clara Pueblo. After Obama’s 2012 declaration, FEMA sent another $5.3 million to New Mexico. According to Brian Williams, recovery unit manager for the New Mexico Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management, the unspent money sits in what’s called “Smart Link,” a fund that holds the federal government’s money for the state.

water-holding facilities need to be modified and repaired so that they can function as they’re intended: To hold back water and slow down the velocity of the water coming into the community.” Despite presidential disaster declarations in 2011 and 2012, funds to the tribe are just beginning to trickle in from the state, Chavarria said in September. Once the federal government allocates those funds to the state, New Mexico is responsible for “picking up the process,” said Stephanie Moffet, the FEMA’s Region 6 external affairs representative. Despite the fact that tribes are sovereign nations, they are considered subgrantees, and the money must move from the federal government through the state’s Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management.

and genuinely life-threatening,” he said. “But, the pueblo has received a generous amount of the funding up front. The state of New Mexico has paid half the federal share and half the state share, up front. If this were [a state like] Arkansas, they wouldn’t have gotten anything.” Moreover, Williams points out that the tribe has received tens and tens of millions of dollars. “The per capita revenue stream is enormous,” he said. “I’m not sure I would concur with [Chavarria’s] pleading poverty.”

Resiliency, rather than resources

New Mexico In Depth stumbled onto the backlog of federal funds after calling the state’s 22 tribes between Sept. 17 and 18 after the downpours.

Angelina Delgado, a tinsmith whose work has been recognized throughout New Mexico and nationally, died Sunday at Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center. She was 94. During her lifetime, Delgado won several awards recognizing her tinwork. In 2007, she was honored by the National Museum of Women in the Arts. She also received the Governor’s Award for Excellence and Achievement, and she was awarded with the Lifetime Master Award from the Spanish Colonial Arts Society. Delgado came from a family of tinsmiths, and in the 1930s, she participated in the Works Project Administration program with her grandfather, Francisco “Quico” Delgado. The program, created under President Franklin D. Roosevelt, served to boost the economy during the Great Depression. In 2008, Roosevelt’s granddaughter, Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, presented Angelina Delgado with an honor from the National New Deal Preservation Association for her work in the 1930s federal program.

This not the ﬁrst or the last time he will put someone out of business in order to fulﬁll his greed.” M.O. Shocking. Gerald Peters is slowly, piece by “ piece, taking over Santa Fe. It’s like watching the game Monopoly. I hope my place of work isn’t next!” L.Z. The season to sit outside in Santa Fe is only “ six months. You need to sell a lot of beer to pay 10 salaries. Rents are out of control downtown; only landlords themselves can afford this kind of nonsense. Half of Peter Komis’ buildings are empty and [have been] for sale for a long time. The Plaza Galleria is half-empty, the old Char space on Old Santa Fe Trail [has been] empty for years, the Plaza Arcade is half empty.” E.P. I went to this bar once with guests from out of “ town, and they were so incredibly rude and made us feel like they were paying us to be there. I am happy to see these pompous fools go!” C.V.

Christus St. Vincent hospital announces layoffs, Nov. 4 Taking advantage of changing laws to trim the “ workforce from the bottom, never from the top,

and blame it on a health care law that will eventually make it easier for them to to get reimbursed from patients that didn’t have health care in the past but now do. No wonder people in this town look south when facing a hospitalization.” M.M.

I found it disturbing and surprising that Christus “ is laying off employees and blaming it on the new regulations of the Affordable Care Act. Christus is opening new offices around the hospital area and implementing hospital upgrades. Surely the administrators had to know of the regulations a long time ago, when these jobs could have been saved, instead of starting new ventures. Are these employees the sacriﬁcial lambs because they are trying to make a point about the new law?” D.G.

Martinez’s tour with Christie spurs talk of 2016 ticket, Nov. 5 Gov. Susana Martinez is ‘so focused on New “ Mexico.’ How about holding a fundraising event in your own state then? For someone who thinks New Mexico should be self-reliant, she sure as heck is not going to rely on her New Mexico supporters to ﬁnance her campaign. Fact is Gov. Martinez is in way over her head. None of her supporters can outline any accomplishments other than balancing the state budget (Which, by the way, is state law. It is illegal to run the state government without a balanced budget. I give more credit to the Legislative Finance Committee for straightening out our budget issues). …” D.M. Just think about this: Why on Earth would “ anyone even think about having a governor from one of the poorest states in the nation in the White House? She can’t even take care of business at home. I wonder who paid for her little trip to New Jersey, and did she get the trooper helicopter to give her a ride again?” D.E.

Our View: A search too far, Nov. 5 Just another seemingly daily episode of ‘Cops “ Gone Wild.’ Hopefully, Mr. [David] Eckert will be awarded a $100 million in damages and the ‘Gila Regional Medical Torture Center’ put out of business for good. That’s the only way to curtail some of these abuses, or at least make the sick sadists think twice before they start probing.” P.M. Good editorial. However, I do not think the “ citizens of this local area in Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico have to worry about this type of red-squad police tactics. Frankly, the last thing the local law enforcement agencies need to worry about is getting themselves into hot water and boil into a massive federal lawsuit over something like this one. … Scary stuff happening south of our state boundaries, and where else is this happening under our noses?” F.C. Thanks for an eye-opening editorial. I hope The “ New Mexican gives this outrage continuing cover-

age. My father was a longtime physician in Deming. If my dad were working in that ER, I know he would have sent these sadists packing. The Gila Regional Medical Center employees who were complicit in this torture are either a bunch of sadists or they are infected with the typical American blind obedience to authority. New Mexico law compels medical personnel to refuse to participate in state torture and to appeal to a power legally capable of stopping it. …” C.M.

LOOKING IN: PAUL CACCAMO

A solution to youth violence A

s the recent headlines declaring Chicago the murder capital of America make clear, our nation’s youth, especially those living in some of our most underserved communities, are facing an epidemic of violence. We know that most of the crime youth engage in happens after school, when most are not being supervised by their parents. With nearly 85 percent of moms and dads in the workforce, our kids are in the care of someone else for significant portions of the day. In wealthier suburbs, children can turn to a myriad of options for caregivers: welltrained public-school teachers, organized after-school providers and caring faithbased leaders. However, in urban America, especially in low-income communities where violence is occurring at epidemic rates, there are fewer, if any, options. Schools in communities like Chicago with high murder rates are overcrowded and underfunded. After-school programs and extracurricular activities are decreasing under the pressure of budget cuts. Too often, city parks are dangerous and/or inaccessible. That leaves our most vulnerable children open to being influenced and engaged by other children. Taking the place of traditional caregivers are the notorious gangs plaguing low-income, often minority, communities. Gangs are

a particularly difficult problem in Chicago. These gangs offer kids a desperately needed sense of belonging, self worth, adventure, and at the very least, distraction from their present circumstances. These gangs also Paul offer kids guns, crime and Caccamo murder as a destructive pathway forward. Headlines labeling Chicago the murder capital of the country compel us to advance proven solutions to violence in urban America. I believe that this solution involves the constructive “engagement” of our youth. We need to ensure that every child in this nation that is lacking consistent adult direction has at least one adult in their life who can serve as a positive role model to engage him or her. A highly trained coach-mentor can be that adult role model. And now, a study from the University of Chicago Crime Lab has provided the first scientific evidence that the presence of a coach-mentor can result in a 44 percent decrease in crime. The study was based on a program that used sports as a primary component for engaging youth from urban communities who were at an elevated risk of becoming involved in perpetrating vio-

lence. And yet, despite the evidence, too many kids do not have access to a coach they can turn to for support and guidance on the many challenges they face growing up. We know the problem, and we know the solution. It’s time to act. Corporations should join forces with government in a public-private partnership to support the development of a nationwide workforce of coaches. Supporting such a program would not only effectively address youth violence, but also provide jobs to young adults who are desperately needed to inspire kids in some of our most underserved communities. Every dollar invested in the program can produce more than $30 dollars in savings to society in terms of dollars saved from incarceration and would put thousands of our children on a path to success, rather than prison or the grave. The social return on investment is enormous. We have a responsibility to act now. From Chicago to Los Angeles, New York to New Orleans, by providing highly trained coach-mentors, we can create change through sports. Paul Caccamo is the founder and executive director of Up2Us and its signature program Coach Across America, the first national program to challenge young adults to give back to their communities by committing to a year of service coaching at-risk youth.

LOOKING IN: RILEY RIFKIN

Stand behind Second Amendment A ny American’s safety is at risk as our country engages in the controversy of gun control. Extreme restrictions on guns threaten the sacred protection of a person’s property and life. Yet those who are willing to risk this often fail to understand that criminals will always have the ability to find weapons capable of killing and injuring, no matter the regulations. Although gun control advocates claim that removing guns will decrease societal violence, they wrongly accuse the weapon rather than the person responsible for the violent action. Therefore, they argue, measurable gun regulations must be put into place to maintain a free, secure and equal society. Chicago has some of the strictest gun laws yet also holds the highest murder rate of major cities in the United States. In 2012, there were an astounding 500 homicides within that single city. Restricting guns will not stop these criminals. The guns used to commit the Chicago murders were not licensed or registered to the assailants who killed with them, according to the National Rifle Association News. Because of this, those who say that total gun control will eliminate crime are misled. Wanting to remove guns from our society would only jeopardize those who do not wish nor intend to commit crimes by utilizing a gun. Utilitarianism is the act of reasoning being based on the outcome of happiness for the greater good of the majority. In America today, any costs are worth the result in order to protect citizens. There were 326 reported self-defense justified homicides in 2010, nearly double the number from 2000. More than 80 percent of those cases involved a firearm as the

weapon used for protection. Having total restriction on guns would abandon the bulk of American citizens who do not partake in these various ways of breaking the law. Law-abiding citizens are worthy of protection and safety. Fear should not overtake every person in this great country. If those law-abiding citizens choose to have guns or even a concealed weapons permit, they should be put through a training course as well as meet a set list of requirements, including background checks. People must be familiar with their weapon and know how to use it in times of trouble if need be. There should be no uncertainty when someone uses their firearm. Owned guns should be registered in order to be able to detect people who should have firearm restrictions placed upon them. Individuals should be required to

register their weapons, because it is worth the possible prevention of an extreme tragedy in our country. With that, great penalties must continue to be enforced for those who choose to use guns to commit crimes. Weapons can be effective and safe if they are in the correct hands. Our society should no longer have to live in fear of potentially losing an efficient form of protection. If the government were to implement extreme laws removing all guns, our country would no longer accurately reflect the Second Amendment, guaranteeing citizens the right to bear arms. This dangerous act would only encourage criminals to take advantage of unarmed and defenseless victims. To legally have the ability to protect yourself gives individuals liberty. No innocent person, like you, like me, should have to live in

terror. We must recognize that guns are not the bad guys. People use their liberty to choose their own actions with weapons, good or bad. We, the citizens of the United States, must do our best to prevent another James Holmes or Adam Lanza from creating many more heart-wrenching tragedies as happened in Colorado and Connecticut mass shootings. Though criminals will still find weapons, it is necessary for a just society to regulate who obtains and owns the guns that are legally distributed. This must be done in order to promote citizen safety. Will you stand for the given rights of our Second Amendment of the United States Constitution?

Killing black rhinos shows cowardice

hey think of themselves as rugged outdoorsmen. Tough guys with big guns. Brawny dudes who aren’t afraid of venturing into the wilds of Africa to stalk and kill endangered wild game. They are cowards. I’m appalled that the Dallas Safari Club would rationalize an auction for the opportunity to kill one of the few remaining black rhinos in the world as justifiable to save the species. We have to kill it to save it, they assert. Nonsense. How about saving it to save it? The club’s executive director, Ben Carter, says this has been the practice for years among hunters. They pay conservation programs for the right to auction wild game hunts, which is a way of ensuring the killing of animals is limited so that they have a

chance to regenerate their herds. “But this has never been applied to an endangered species,” he told Dallas Morning News reporter Ray Sasser. “It’s a big, bold idea, and it’s new. We expected a certain level of surprise, scrutiny and criticism.” Big. Bold. Those are testosterone words. Well, let me be among the first to fulfill Carter’s expectations of scrutiny and criticism. What do these hunters hope to get out of this? The lucky auction winner will travel to the wilds of Namibia, where he will stalk one of about 5,000 black rhinos still in existence. Using a high-powered rifle and scope, most likely, he will put this beautiful beast in his crosshairs, pull the trigger, and end the rhino’s life in a fraction of a second. The animal won’t stand a chance. It won’t have any semblance to a fair fight

between man and beast. Hired hands will then drag the carcass somewhere. They will chop its head off and pack it in a container so that Mister Big Tough Hunter can send it to a taxidermist. Weeks later, voila, the dead rhino’s head gets mounted on the hunter’s wall. Wow, that’s pretty manly. Like something right out of the 1950s, back when nobody paid attention to these things and, in fact, celebrated such slaughter. Here’s a better idea: Have your auction. Send the hunter to Namibia with a really nice camera. Mount the photo of the rhino on his wall, and call it a day. Let these beautiful animals live. That’s the manly — and sporting — thing to do.

Typhoon tragedy challenges Philippines

he agenda for the second-half of Benigno Aquino’s presidency is devastatingly clear. In the first three years of his term, the Filipino leader attracted remarkable investment-grade ratings for the onetime Sick Man of Asia. He raised taxes to increase revenues and stabilize the national balance sheet. He won global accolades for jailing his predecessor, Gloria Arroyo, and going after the corruption that has made the Philippines a third-rail country for overseas investors. He even took on the powerful Catholic Church by providing free contraceptives to slow population growth. Those successes seem like a distant memory today as the Philippines counts its dead. Super Typhoon Haiyan may have killed as many as 10,000 people in the Philippines after floods and winds knocked down buildings and destroyed an airport. The recovery effort will be long, painful and expensive. Haiyan’s total economic impact may reach $14 billion, with only about $2 billion of that insured. That’s serious money in a $250 billion economy where a quarter of the population lives on less than $1.25 a day. A botched effort would undermine many of Aquino’s accomplishments to date. Hundreds of millions in aid dollars flowing into remote provinces could fuel the corruption he has tried to eradicate. Government infighting and incompetence would destroy the reputation for probity and efficiency that Aquino has fought to establish among investors. The Philippines’ new standing is all-too-fragile.

OUR VIEW

High-speed chases: Recipe for tragedy?

F into Haiti, the world might be quick to shrug and say, “Well, what do you expect? It’s the Philippines.” This is a test for Aquino — but also an opportunity. If he can oversee a rapid and effective response to Haiyan, he will demonstrate to the world, and his own people, that the Philippines has grown up — that his nation is no longer the kind to sit back and let aid agencies take over when disaster strikes. That should reinforce confidence in his leadership and strengthen his hand against those who would try to roll back the reforms he’s implemented thus far. Most importantly, the crisis gives the president a chance to broaden those reforms to the whole country. For too long Filipino leaders have tended to their fiefdoms and cronies in Manila and left the provinces to fend for them-

selves. That lack of attentiveness and oversight allowed local politicians to steer funds that should have gone toward better infrastructure into pet projects — or their pockets. Before the weekend’s devastation, Aquino was planning to more than double state spending on public works to 824 billion pesos ($19 billion), or about 5 percent of gross domestic product. That number will no doubt have to be revised dramatically upward. Storm-struck areas need to be rebuilt from the ground up. Roads and bridges and buildings elsewhere need to be strengthened to withstand the next killer typhoon or earthquake. That money gives Aquino leverage to improve local governance in ways that Manila has never attempted before. Aquino could release national funds on a quid-pro-quo

basis, demanding certain sets of metrics be met to ensure that the next disbursement is made. Local governments could be subjected to surprise audits and lifestyle checks of public officials and their staffs to make sure funds are being properly managed. Aquino also could demand that more information be released on the Internet, including bidding processes, to improve transparency. Such efforts could spread Aquino’s goodgovernance push to thousands of far-off islands and towns, raising the nation’s still-woeful score on Transparency International’s corruption index. Aquino rarely misses an opportunity to say that the Philippines is back in business. This is his chance to prove it. William Pesek is a Bloomberg View columnist.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Tale of 2 governors: Accomplishments vs. fundraising

ov. Susana Martinez’s focus when she first took office was to undo many of the things that Bill Richardson had accomplished. As I remember, she wanted to privatize the New Mexico Rail Runner Express, and she almost screwed up the film industry in New Mexico. The New Mexican article refers to her as a rising star. That is kind of true. The only thing that she has done since she took office is go to fund “risers.” The only other thing I know about her is that she carriers a .357 Magnum. Some of Richardson’s accomplishments when he was governor: the Rail Runner, the film industry, the tax holiday, the New Mexico Bowl, DWI task force and his work as an international negotiator. If we want a fundraising star, we should keep Gov. Martinez. If we want a real governor, we should go for someone else. Felipe J. Roibal

A bad decision What a small, petty person Gov. Susana Martinez is to appoint an old, has-been Republican to take the place of Democrat Stephen Easley in the State House of Representatives. Mr. Easley died so unexpectedly, yet Gov. Martinez has no respect for him, his family or his constituents. It’s disgusting! If Mr. Easley’s district members wanted a Republican to represent them, they would have elected one. Don’t unpack your bags, Vickie Perea — your tenure in the Legislature will be brief. In the meantime, we will watch your voting record, and we will see you are just a Martinez lackey. Mary M. Harris

Different problems In reference to the My View by Jeff Young (“Entitlement spending is the problem,” Oct. 27), he states that Social Security and Medicare are the problem. When Bill Clinton was president, we had a balanced budget. It is the wars the U.S. has been financing for the last 10 to 12 years that has caused the problem. The U.S. gets involved in one war after another. They seem to have no end in sight. If the USA does not raise the debt ceiling and is allowed to default on its debts early next year, it will cause a monumental, global catastrophe. If this monstrous calamity is allowed to occur, it will take the next 100 years — a full century — for the USA to get back on its feet and gain again the respect of the world. Social Security and Medicare will be cut off and not restated in our lifetime. Alicia Arany

ormer Santa Fe Police Chief Don Grady had a rocky tenure as the city’s top cop back in the 1990s. One reason, perhaps, was that he was a cerebral man whose approach to police work was intellectual as well as action-based. We think of Grady today, reflecting upon the uptick in violent confrontations between police and citizens in New Mexico. One controversy that engulfed Chief Grady back in 1994 was his decision to buy Chevrolet Cavaliers rather than the more sturdy Caprices as police cars. Officers were enraged about the smaller cars, claiming they were too slow. To Grady, the need for speed in city limits was overemphasized. “You shouldn’t be driving over 60 miles per hour in the city limits anyway,” Grady said at the time. High-speed chases, he went on to say, should be rare. We wonder what Chief Grady would think about last week’s New Mexico State Police chase of an admittedly chaotic driver through the residential streets of Santa Fe. Driver Jeanette Anaya refused to stop after officers spotted her driving erratically by St. Francis and Alta Vista streets. She kept going, and police say her speed reached up to 87 miles per hour — which meant they were right with her speeding through town. The chase ended tragically on Camino Carlos Rey by Herb Martinez Park when officers maneuvered to stop her car. As they approached her Accord, officers say Anaya tried to run them down. She was shot and killed. Police work is dangerous and hard. An officer made the decision to shoot in a split second, with what seemed to be an assault weapon — the car — headed toward him. Most of us have never had to make such life-or-death decisions. At the same time, this chase — as well one earlier this month in Española that had officers and suspect barrelling 70 mph through town — should offer the community the opportunity to discuss how police should act in similar situations. Before the gun comes out, are there other ways to handle the situation? The New Mexican has asked the state police for its policy on high-speed chases — when they are necessary, what are the guidelines, etc. Regrettably, rather than turn over what should be a public document, the police demanded the paper make its request under the Inspection of Public Records Act, which gives them up to 15 days to turn over the information. Gov. Susana Martinez — the ultimate boss of the state police and the believer in government transparency — should tell her officers to speed that request up. Even without the policy, the public deserves answers and a discussion. When are high-speed chases necessary? Does a weaving car require a high-speed chase, or should officers get the license plate and track the driver down later, safely? Could the car be cut off, with a barricade, avoiding the chase? Should an officer pull an extreme maneuver to stop a driver on a fairly narrow street with homes on both sides of the road? Anaya’s car crashed into a wall; what if that had been the side of a house, or a pedestrian walking late at night, unseen in the dark? Does the end of a chase — with adreneline pumping — put officers in too much danger? Across the country, communities have dealt with tragedies after high-speed chases — innocent bystanders killed or unfortunate confrontations between suspect and police. In Baltimore, the city police policy prohibits chases except under “exigent circumstances,” if officers believe that a failure to pursue might lead to death or injury. Otherwise, police try to stop the suspect with barricades down the road. Obviously, the chases wouldn’t happen if drivers would pull over and stop when police turn on their lights and sirens. People do not always behave in a rational manner, and when they go off the wheels, officers must be the ones who remain calm and avoid escalating the situation. Highspeed chases are the ultimate in escalation. It’s time to discuss whether they are necessary and under what circumstances. Chief Grady, in this instance, was correct.

Military suicides drop; unclear why By Lolita C. Baldor The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Suicides across the military have dropped by more than 22 percent this year, defense officials said, amid an array of new programs targeting what the Defense Department calls an epidemic that took more service members’ lives last year than the war in Afghanistan did during that same period. Military officials, however, were reluctant to pin the decline on the broad swath of detection and prevention efforts, acknowledging that they still don’t fully understand why troops take their own lives. And since many of those who have committed suicide in recent years had never served on the warfront, officials also do not attribute the decrease to the end of the Iraq war and the drawdown in Afghanistan. Still, they offered some hope that after several years of studies, the escalating emphasis on prevention across all the services may finally be taking hold. With two months left in the year, defense officials say there have been 245 suicides by activeduty service members as of Oct. 27. At the same time last year there had already been 316. Each of the military services has seen

the total go down this year, ranging from an 11 percent dip in the Marine Corps to a 28 percent drop for the Navy. The Air Force had a 21 percent decline, while Army totals fell by 24 percent. The officials provided the data to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to disclose it publicly. Last year the number of suicides in the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines spiked to 349 for the full 12-month period, the highest since the Pentagon began closely tracking the numbers in 2001, and up from the 2011 total of 301. There were 295 Americans killed in Afghanistan last year, by the AP’s count. Military suicides began rising in 2006 and soared to a thenrecord 310 in 2009 before leveling off for two years. Alarmed defense officials launched an intensified campaign to isolate the causes that lead to suicide, and develop programs to eliminate the stigma associated with seeking help and encourage troops to act when their comrades appeared troubled. The Pentagon increased the number of behavioral health care providers by 35 percent over the past 3 years and embedded more of them in front-line units. It also

beefed up training, expanded crisis phone lines and delivered more than 75,000 gun locks to the services to distribute. “Suicide is often a perfect storm in an individual life, where many supports and many things come undone around a service member,” said Ami NeibergerMiller, spokeswoman for the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors. “I think there’s been a lot of people encouraging our troops who are in trouble to seek help, that help is available, that help can work and that suicide is not the only option.” While much of the suicide prevention effort involves similar studies and programs, each service has set up its own methods to deal with the problem. Navy Capt. Kurt Scott, director of the service’s suicide prevention programs, said the Navy is working to recognize the causes of stress beforehand and then help sailors figure out ways to deal with it. Often stress is tied to family issues, including the strains of leaving for deployments, substance abuse, depression or financial problems. A study released this summer in the Journal of the American Medical Association found no evidence of a link between suicide and troops who deployed

multiple times to Iraq and Afghanistan combat zones over the past decade. Scott said sailors are receiving annual training, including sessions on how to identify stress in their subordinates or comrades. The training also helps sailors identify personal and workrelated issues that might cause anxiety as they prepare to deploy, and then suggests ways to deal with the stress — including exercise or talking out the problems with chaplains or other troops. The Marines have also targeted substance abuse as something that appears to increase the risk for suicides. Adam Walsh, who works with the Marine Corp’s community counseling and prevention programs, said it’s too early to declare that suicides are declining in general. He said, however, that the Marines are updating an alcohol abuse prevention campaign and also now require that every battalion and squadron have a suicide prevention program officer. The Army, which is by far the largest military service, has the highest number of suicides so far this year, with 124, while the Air Force had 43, the Navy had 38, and the Marines — the smallest service — had 40.

Plans: Sale could be finalized by year’s end Continued from Page A-1 and “access to a lot more tools and opportunities than they have had in the past.” Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico currently has more than 400,000 members around the state. The Lovelace plan is part of the Lovelace Health System, which includes hospitals, pharmacies, clinics and medical groups across the state. “After careful consideration, Lovelace Health System made the strategic decision to focus on growing its primary, specialty and acute care services, providing greater access to high-quality and compassionate care throughout the region,” President and

CEO Ron Stern said in a statement. “Blue Cross and Blue Shield is a proven, trusted and local partner, and we are confident this is the right option for our patients and health plan members.” Under the agreement, Lovelace members will continue to have access to their current provider network. They also will regain access to providers with ABQ Health Partners, which until late last year provided health care services to thousands of Lovelace plan members. Lovelace had fought to retain those members after the two failed to reach an agreement to continue their partnership. Shipley called it a challenging time for

health plan providers, particularly small independents. The deal also gives Blue Cross a stronger relationship with Lovelace medical facilities that will benefit Blue Cross members in years to come, Shipley said. Lovelace Health System consists of Lovelace Medical Center, Lovelace Rehabilitation Hospital, Lovelace Women’s Hospital, Lovelace Westside Hospital, Heart Hospital of New Mexico at Lovelace Medical Center, Lovelace Regional Hospital-Roswell, Lovelace Medical Group, Southwest Medical Associates and 11 retail pharmacy locations in Albuquerque, Rio Rancho and Santa Fe.

Face: Landscaper, client willing to sell stone Continued from Page A-1 what seems to be a pair of eyes, a nose and mouth of a longhaired, bearded man. “I guess I see [Jesus] because I’m a Christian and a believer,” Marcus said. “That’s the best way I can answer that — just my Christian beliefs. I’m a follower of the Lord.” Marcus, 50, grew up Roman Catholic in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, moved to Santa Fe 22 years ago and began building homes. He began attending the Eldorado Community Church 10 years ago. “I believe that’s when my walk with the Lord started,” he said. Marcus isn’t the only person who sees Jesus in the rock. He said his client noticed it about two days before he did and had even snapped photographs with her phone. “My client wants to remain anonymous … the reason being she doesn’t want to turn her backyard into Chimayó,” he said, referring to the Northern New Mexico shrine that annually draws thousands of Roman Catholic faithful, many seeking

to take advantage of what they believe is healing dirt at the site. “Then, she wouldn’t have any rocks left.” Marcus said he’s been keeping the rock at his own place, but that he and his client would consider selling it. “I don’t know if something like this would generate any money or interest or not,” he said. “I’ve never experienced anything like this. But whatever it put in my pocket, I would definitely put 10 percent of it into the church.” People recognizing religious figures in everyday objects is a recurring phenomenon in New Mexico. An image of Jesus on the plastered wall of an abandoned building in Holman, near Mora, drew thousands in 1975. In Lake Arthur, near Roswell, a likeness of Jesus appeared in a freshly grilled tortilla in 1977, causing the cook to frame it on her wall. In 2008, Bertha Silva Martinez noticed what looked like an image of the Virgin of Guadalupe in the bark of a crab apple tree in her front yard in El Rito. In 2009, retired FBI agent Alfredo

Myers, Fernandez chosen as Rookies of the Year By Mike Fitzpatrick

The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Jose Fernandez arrived early. Wil Myers made it big after a blockbuster trade. Neither one needed much time to create a splash, and together they brought both Rookie of the Year awards back to Florida. Fernandez stood out in a very deep National League class this season, and the precocious Miami Marlins Wil Myers pitcher received 26 of 30 first-place votes from a Baseball Writers’ Association of America panel in results announced Monday. Myers won the American League prize after the Jose Tampa Bay slugger Fernandez put up impressive offensive numbers in barely half a season. The right fielder was chosen first on 23 of 30 ballots, beating out Detroit shortstop Jose Iglesias and Rays teammate Chris Archer. “Honestly, when I was called up that didn’t even cross my mind. As

Bucs hold off Miami, extend Dolphins’ misfortune By Fred Goodall

The Associated Press

AMPA, Fla. — Tampa Bay’s status as the NFL’s only winless team didn’t last long. Rookie Mike Glennon threw a 1-yard touchdown pass to tackle Donald Penn and led a long fourth-quarter TD drive to put the Buccaneers ahead for good in a 22-19 win over the embattled Miami Dolphins on Monday night. Bobby Rainey’s 1-yard run capped an 80-yard

drive, and the Bucs held on in the final 10 minutes to become the last team in the league to victory this season. Jacksonville beat Tennessee on Sunday, leaving Tampa Bay (1-8) as the league’s only winless team entering the game. “It’s good to stand up here after a win,” Bucs coach Greg Schiano said after his team won for only the second time in 15 games dating to last season. “We have to build off this.” Playing for the first time since a bullying scandal,

the Dolphins (4-5) started slowly before overcoming an early 15-0 deficit to lead 19-15 heading into the fourth quarter. Ryan Tannehill threw touchdown passes of 6 and 19 yards to Rishard Matthews but got no help from a running game that was limited to just 2 yards rushing. The Bucs sacked Tannehill twice on Miami’s final possession before Darrelle Revis intercepted Tannehill’s fourth-down desperation throw intended for Mike Wallace with 1:35 remaining. “We have good guys on this team who understand adversity and understand how to handle it,”

LONDON — Novak Djokovic remains the man to beat on indoor courts. The defending champion made quick work of top-ranked Rafael Nadal 6-3, 6-4 to win the ATP World Tour Finals on Monday, extending his winning streak to 22 matches and claiming the elite season-ending title for the third time. Djokovic, who has not lost a match since his defeat to Nadal in the U.S. Open final, returned superbly from the start to move his Spanish rival around the court and prevent him from dictating the points. Nadal hit only nine winners and was broken three times. Nadal and Djokovic have been dominant this season. Nadal replaced Djokovic for the No. 1 ranking last month, but the Serbian player proved again he still has the upper hand on hard courts by extending his head-tohead winning record to 13-7 on that surface. Djokovic took an impressive start,

A size limit? yer, that that threat was actually a meme: a photo of a laughing seemingly harmless woman, holding what appears to be a laughing dog, with the message “I will murder your whole [expletive] family.” This is what passes for humor in 2013, sadly, but I wouldn’t consider it a serious threat — not as serious as some of the things Incognito texted Martin, which were definitely not in the form of memes.

Braves plan new stadium for 2017 SCOREBOARD Venue to seat Local results and schedules

ON THE AIR

The Associated Press

ATLANTA — Turner Field had a signature event right at the start — a trembling Muhammad Ali emerging from the shadows to ignite the flame that opened the 1996 Summer Olympics. In the years that followed, the Atlanta Braves hosted many memorable moments of their own, from a World Series and All-Star Game to the farewells of Bobby Cox and Chipper Jones. Now, just 17 years after it opened, it looks as though the stadium affectionately known as “the Ted” is headed for extinction, like so many sports facilities in this city. In a stunning announcement, the Braves said Monday they are moving to a new 42,000seat, $672 million stadium about 10 miles from downtown in suburban Cobb County, apparently swayed by a lucrative financial package that was just too good to pass up. Mayor Kasim Reed said the city couldn’t match a $450 million offer from one of Atlanta’s sprawling northern suburbs, though it wasn’t immediately clear how the county of some 700,000 people plans to raise the money or whether it will require a vote of the taxpayers. Mike Plant, the Braves executive vice president of business operations, said the team has not signed a contract with Cobb County, but he’s “100 percent certain it will happen.” Until now, Cobb County was perhaps best-known nationally as the base of former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and for passing an anti-gay ordinance in

Thirteen free agents turn down qualifying offers By Ronald Blum

The Associated Press

ORLANDO, Fla. — Baseball’s annual gathering of general managers began Monday when $14.1 million qualifying offers were turned down by all 13 free agents who received them from their former teams, a group that included Jacoby Ellsbury, Mike Napoli and Stephen Drew of the Boston Red Sox. Three New York Yankees also said no thanks: Robinson Cano, Curtis Granderson and Hiroki Kuroda. The others turning down the offers were Atlanta’s Brian McCann, Cincinnati’s ShinSoo Choo, Cleveland’s Ubaldo Jimenez, Kansas City’s Ervin Santana, St. Louis’ Carlos Beltran, Seattle’s Kendrys Morales and Texas’ Nelson Cruz. “I don’t think it’s that particularly surprising that all the offers were turned down across baseball,” Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington said. New York Mets GM Sandy Alderson interpreted the turndowns as an indicator a bull market is possible. “That ought to tell you a little bit about their expectations,” he said. If a player who turned down the offer signs with a new team, his former club would receive an extra amateur draft pick at the end of the first round next June. All 22 players given qualifying offers have said no during two offseasons under the new system. “When we made the qualifying offers, we did not expect anyone to accept. We would have been happy if any of them did,” Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said. Cashman was an early arrival at the sessions, with some GMs due to check in on Monday night. In addition to early talks with agents and trade feelers, GMs will hold rules discussions, such as whether there should be any limitations on bowling over catchers.

Fans watch from the outfield as Atlanta Braves’ Jason Heyward swings at a pitch in the first inning of an opening day baseball game against the Philadelphia Phillies on April 1 in Atlanta. The Braves are leaving Turner Field and moving into a new 42,000-seat, $672 million stadium complex in Cobb County in 2017. ASSoCIATED PRESS FILE PHoTo

the 1990s that led the Olympic organizing committee to abandon plans to hold events there during the Atlanta Games. In 2017, it will become the home of the Braves. “It was with mixed emotions that we made this decision,” team president John Schuerholz said. “The new stadium, we believe, will be one of the most magnificent ever built.” Cobb Commission Chairman Tim Lee said the team is working to finalize a memorandum of understanding that would be presented to the full commission at its Nov. 26 meeting. He said his fellow commissioners have already been briefed on the deal. “The response has been very positive, very enthusiastic and supportive of this investment, which will bring significant economic growth to Cobb County

and the region,” Lee said. He declined to answer any questions about public financing. When asked about the $450 million figure cited by Reed, the chairman said, “I don’t know where he got that from.” The Braves had made it clear for years they were not satisfied with Turner Field, located just south of downtown near some of the city’s poorest neighborhoods. The team frequently cited a lack of neighborhood development, complaints about the closest MARTA rapid-transit station being about a mile away, and the inability to secure more parking spaces. While the city made a highprofile effort to help secure a new $1.2 billion, retractable-roof stadium for the NFL Falcons, talks with the Braves quietly broke down over the summer.

The mayor made it sound like the city never had a chance after Cobb County officials offered up a site that will give the Braves more options for commercial development, including restaurants, retail shops, hotels and entertainment facilities. Despite the lack of any rapid-transit in Cobb County and the stadium site being located next to one of the city’s most congested interchanges — a swath of interstates that are as wide as seven lanes — the Braves insisted the new stadium could actually provide easier access because of a planned “circulator” bus system. “At the end of the day, there was simply no way the team was going to stay in downtown Atlanta without city taxpayers spending hundreds of millions of dollars,” Reed said in a statement.

Rookies: More MLB awards to be announced this week Continued from Page B-1 the season went on I could see I would have a chance,” Myers said on a conference call from his North Carolina home. “To be able to win is just a huge honor and I’m very excited about it.” The two announcements marked the beginning of awards week in baseball. NL and AL Manager of the Year will be revealed Tuesday, with the Cy Young winners Wednesday and MVPs on Thursday. Myers became the third Tampa Bay player in six years to be selected Rookie of the Year, joining Jeremy Hellickson (2011) and Evan Longoria (2008). Seated next to each other, Myers and Archer smiled and shook hands when the winner was revealed on MLB Network. Fernandez easily topped runner-up Yasiel Puig of the Los Angeles Dodgers as Cuban players ran 1-2 in the NL race. The only previous Rookie of the Year winners from Cuba came in the AL: Jose Canseco in 1986 and Tony Oliva in 1964. “It means a lot just to be compared to those guys,” Fernandez said. “I’m not sure I was even born when those guys were playing. But for sure I heard the names before and they did a lot of good things in baseball. … All the kids in Cuba play baseball.” Puig received the other four first-place votes and amassed 95 points to 142 for Fernandez, who made the All-Star team at age 20. He went 12-6 with a 2.19 ERA and 187 strikeouts for a last-place club that finished 62-100. Fernandez was shut down in September after 172⅔ innings to protect his precious arm. Still, his debut season was so superb that he’s one of three finalists for the NL Cy Young Award — though Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw is a heavy favorite. Fernandez already has one big prize, however, and he hugged his mother and grandmother when he won. He came to the United States by boat as a Cuban refugee in 2008, apparently rescuing his mom along the way. Drafted 14th overall in 2011 out of high school in Tampa, Fla., he had never pitched above Class A before this season. Fernandez was ticketed for Double-A Jacksonville at the end of spring training when injuries left two holes in Miami’s rotation. Fernandez became an unexpected addition to the roster, making him the youngest pitcher on a major league team on opening day. “I wasn’t planning on being in the big leagues,” he said. The surprises haven’t stopped — on and off the mound. One day before winning the rookie award, a shocked Fernandez was reunited with his grandmother in Florida with help from his lawyer. “Out of nowhere,” the pitcher said. “I have no idea how it happened.”

NEW MEXICAN SPORTS Tampa Bay Rays’ Wil Myers hits a single in an Oct. 8 game against Boston.

Now, she can visit for a few years and see him play in the majors. “Pretty excited about that,” Fernandez said. The 22-year-old Myers batted .293 with 13 home runs and 53 RBIs in only 88 games after he was called up from the minors June 18. He immediately added much-needed power to the middle of the Rays’ lineup, helping them reach the playoffs as an AL wild card. Myers was rated one of baseball’s best hitting prospects when he was traded from Kansas City to Tampa Bay last December in a seven-player deal that sent pitchers James Shields and Wade Davis to the Royals. “There were some mixed feelings in leaving Kansas City,” Myers acknowledged. “I don’t want to say they gave up on me. They made a move they thought would better their team and it did.” Worked out well for Tampa Bay, too. The Rays were 36-33 before Myers arrived this season and went 56-38 the rest of the way. They won a tiebreaker at Texas for the final AL playoff berth and beat Cleveland in the wild-card game before getting eliminated by World Series champion Boston in the division series. Myers finished with 131 points in the balloting to 80 for the slick-fielding Iglesias, traded from the Red Sox to the Tigers just before the deadline in late July. Both teams ended up in the AL championship series.

ATP: Serb capitalizes on opponent’s errors Continued from Page B-1 hitting powerful groundstrokes to keep Nadal well behind his baseline while limiting his own mistakes. Returning well, the Serb made the most of two of Nadal’s backhand errors to break in the second game. He had another chance in the fourth game after Nadal doublefaulted, but a superb defensive play from the Serb ended with a shanked backhand. Nadal got into the match from that point. He put Djokovic under pressure with his huge forehands in the next game and two unforced errors from the Serb allowed him to break back then even at 3-3. But Nadal faltered in his next service game as he served a double fault at 30-30.

After a stunning exchange, Djokovic broke for a 5-3 edge following a series of volleys at the net. Standing in the middle of the court, the Serb opened his arms and screamed as the crowd erupted in cheers and greeted the players with a standing ovation. Djokovic then benefited from a fortunate net cord and made sure he hit three good serves to seal the set on his first occasion with an ace. Looking confident, Djokovic raised his game further in the second set, pinpointing his shots on the lines after breaking in the third game of the second set. The Spaniard saved two match points and kept encouraging himself until the end, but a final forehand that was too long gave Djokovic the title.

NBA

Undefeated Pacers stomp Memphis Indianapolis boasts 3½-game lead over Miami, Atlanta in East

By Michael Marot

The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — Eight straight wins are not enough for the perfect Pacers. They have far bigger plans. The NBA’s last unbeaten team remained undaunted Monday night, getting 23 points from Paul George and the first triple-double of Lance Stephenson’s Pacers 95 career to run past Memphis 95-79 Grizzlies 79 and complete a brutal five-games in seven-days stretch with a sweep. Indiana extended its franchise-best start to 8-0, becoming the seventh team to achieve the feat since 2000 and the 18th team in league history to start a season 8-0, according to STATS. “Everything we’re shooting for is attainable, but we’ve got a long way to go, a lot of work to do,” coach Frank Vogel said. “It was probably our most complete game.” The Pacers made no secret of this season’s plan — dethroning two-time defending NBA champion Miami. The best way to do that, they figured, was earning the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference and so far, nobody has been able to touch them. The Pacers already have a 3½-game lead over Miami and Atlanta in the East. Indiana is showing no sign of slowing down, either. Rather than look fatigued after back-to-back wins last Tuesday and Wednesday and two more backto-back wins Friday and Saturday, something Vogel said he had never been part of previously, the Pacers appeared to get stronger Monday. They again dominated the glass, outrebounding Memphis 30-15 in the first half and finishing with a 45-32 advantage. They again relied on suffocating defense, which held Memphis (3-4) to a season-low point total and nearly 20 points below its season scoring average (98.5). And again they were content to share the honors. George scored seven points during a key 9-3 stretch to close out the third

quarter. That gave Indiana a 72-55 lead. Stephenson, who is playing the best basketball of his career, finished with 13 points, 11 rebounds, a career-high 12 assists and only one turnover. Roy Hibbert added five more blocks to his league-leading total (35), George Hill finished with 13 points in his third game back from a hip injury and Luis Scola added 12 points off the bench. Indiana could be making things even tougher for opponents soon, too. Vogel said before the game that former All-Star Danny Granger, who once led the Pacers in scoring for five straight seasons, will begin working out Tuesday and could return to practice as soon as Wednesday. Vogel did not say when Granger would return to the rotation. Granger has not played this season because of a strained left calf. For now, though, fans seem content with the way things are going. During the final minutes, they even serenaded Pacers players with chants of “un-de-feat-ed.” But the Pacers aren’t content with that. “We are not looking at this 8-0 start,” said George, the NBA’s Most Improved Player last season. “We want to enjoy it, but we must let our strengths continue to lead us to victory. Everybody helps, everybody is doing their job.” For Memphis, it was a rough night. Marc Gasol, who showed his frustration at times during the second half, finished with 15 points and six rebounds. The only other Memphis players to reach double-figures were two guys with Hoosier State ties — Zach Randolph had 12 and Mike Conley added 11. The Grizzlies shot just 41 percent from the field and were only 6 of 19 from 3-point range, and after a 15-3 run put Memphis in an 80-55 deficit just 83 seconds into the fourth quarter, the Grizzlies never had a chance. “They’re the best defensive team in this league, they really compress the paint, it was hard for any of us guards to get in there and make anything happen,” Conley said. “They’ve got a lot of length, they’ve got great guards that play great ‘D’ and they made us take contested shots.” The Pacers jumped to a 13-8 lead in the opening minutes, scored the final six points of the first quarter to make it 23-16 and then methodically

Spurs top 76ers for easy win The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — Danny Green scored 18 points, Tony Parker had 14, and San Antonio rolled to an easy victory. The defending Western Conference champions are off to a 7-1 start following consecutive wins in New York and Philadelphia. Evan Turner scored 20 points and Spencer Hawes Spurs 109 had 17 for the Sixers, who couldn’t 76ers 85 give coach Brett Brown a better effort in his first game against his former team. Brown spent 11 years in San Antonio, including seven as an assistant under Gregg Popovich and was part of the team’s four championships. The Spurs didn’t even need Tim Duncan, who was given a rest in the second of back-to-back games. HAWKS 103, BOBCATS 94 In Charlotte, N.C., Al Horford scored 24 points, and Atlanta handed Charlotte coach Steve Clifford a loss in his first game back since undergoing a heart procedure. Clifford missed Charlotte’s game last Friday night against the New York Knicks after having two stents placed in his heart.

pulled away in the second. Although Memphis closed to 46-39 at halftime, the Pacers put it away with the spurt spurred by George and Stephenson that eventually made it 80-55. “Everybody’s on the same page, everybody’s playing together and everybody’s playing smart,” Stephenson said. “When we play like that, no one can stop us.” Indiana now gets a three-day break before playing another back-to-back — hosting Milwaukee on Friday and

visiting Chicago on Saturday.

CELTICS 120, MAGIC 105 In Boston, Avery Bradley scored 24 points as Boston beat Orlando for the second time in four days. Kelly Olynyk, Jordan Crawford and Jeff Green each had 16 points for Boston, which has won four straight after opening the season with four losses under first-year coach Brad Stevens. The Celtics shot 60 percent (51 for 85).

Notes: Indiana led at halftime for only the second time this season. … Memphis continued its trend, winning all of its even-numbered games and losing all of its odd-numbered games. … The Pacers have won the last three in this series and are now 14-3 alltime against the Grizzlies in Indy. … Grizzlies forward Quincy Poindexter left the game in the second quarter with a fractured nose and did not return.

BULLS 96, CAVALIERS 81 In Chicago, Derrick Rose had 16 points before leaving in the fourth quarter with an apparent injury, and Chicago pulled away from Cleveland. Rose grimaced after he drove down the lane for a twisting layup with 3:39 left. He remained in the game for a short time before he was pulled for Kirk Hinrich, and a trainer then attended to the 2011 NBA MVP at the end of the bench.

ROCKETS 110, RAPTORS 104, 2 OT In Houston, Jeremy Lin scored 31 points, Dwight Howard had 18 points and 24 rebounds, and Houston outlasted Toronto to snap a twogame losing streak.

Utah dropped to 0-8 and remained the only winless team in the NBA.

It’s good to see you. During his remarks at the Prime I’ve been thinking about you.’ We had Time Sports Management conference a nice chat,” the commissioner said. in Toronto, Bettman called fighting a “And I said, ‘So just hypothetically, if “thermostat” in hockey that helps cool there was a rule that said if you cross things down when tensions run high. the red line to get into a fight with the “When Vinny Lecavalier was in a other goaltender and you get a 10-game fight with [Jarome] Iginla … they got suspension, would you have done it?’ mad at each other,” he said during He goes, ‘What? Are you crazy?’ ” his question-and-answer session. “I’d It might not be a 10-game suspenrather them be punching each other sion, but NHL general managers will than swinging sticks at each other.” discuss potential changes to fighting One of the arguments against the The Associated Press

abolition of fighting, or even making the punishment a game misconduct or suspension, is that it would cause more high-sticks and cheap shots. Bettman said feelings on both sides Gary of the fighting debate Bettman are “really dug in.” “To say you’re getting rid of fighting, I’m not even sure what that means because you can change the penalty and make it more severe,” he said. “That doesn’t mean if somebody’s sufficiently motivated, they’re not going to fight. So we’ll take the hypothetical. You get thrown out of the game if you fight. OK, I think guys will still fight if they feel the need.” Bettman wants to take the pulse of GMs. That includes feelings about goaltenders fighting and other topics.

Emery was not suspended for pummeling Holtby because there is nothing in the rules to use as precedent. Bettman expects a “general discussion” but does not think any rule changes will come about just yet. He adds that the current rules, which include a five-minute major for fighting and extra penalties stemming from the instigator and third-man-in rules, represent the consensus among GMs. “If somebody wants to change it, there needs to be a new consensus,” he said. “That’s why the discussion’s ongoing. Having said that, it continues to evolve as the game does. Four years ago, a shoulder hit to the head was not penalized. Now it’ll get you suspended. We’re going to continue to look at what we can do to keep the game physical but safe as possible.” Senior vice president of player safety Brendan Shanahan, who is

being inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame on Monday night, is expected to address the GMs. Bettman clearly does not want the issue of fighting to overshadow other developments this season — the Colorado Avalanche’s hot start, strong television ratings and arenas filled to 95 percent of capacity. Another topic drawing attention is expansion because of unbalanced divisions created by realignment. Having 32 teams would even out the divisions, but Bettman says there are no such plans in the works. “I don’t envision right now going through a formal expansion process,” he said after the conference. “We get expressions of interest all the time. Those are informal conversations that we have, but in terms of a formal bid process, I’m not focused on doing anything like that right now.”

couldn’t extend the lead and make it where he could rest comfortably at home,” Del Rio said. … CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie sacrificed his starting spot Sunday to Quentin Jammer, a first-round pick of the Chargers in 2002 who was playing his first game in San Diego as a visitor. “That was cool,” Del Rio said.

“I’m not in a place to evaluate that,” he said. “I’d like to think we could hold our own against anybody. We’re looking forward to playing anybody and everybody that shows up.” The Buckeyes remaining schedule after Illinois is home against Indiana (4-5, 2-3) and then the annual late-November feud with rival Michigan (6-3, 2-3) at The Big House. After that will likely come the Big Ten championship game — the Buckeyes have the inside track at winning the Leaders Division title and the same goes for Michigan State in the Legends — before the final BCS rankings come out along with the bowl bids. Meyer said the bar is raised as the season builds to a crescendo. “The message is you have to play great,” he said. “You’re held to [a higher standard] to be even mentioned with those other teams. Be careful what you wish for — that means you have to practice and play at a certain level. “We practiced at a very, very high level today. And we all expect them to play at a very high level because you’re in the same breath with some very, very good teams.”

for that matter. These revelations have led to Incognito’s suspension and an NFL investigation into the Dolphins organization. Since then, stories have surfaced about Dolphins veterans making rookies pay for expensive meals and trips to Las Vegas, among other rumored infractions. The report by attorney Ted Wells, appointed by the NFL to investigate, should be a doozy. Meantime, bullying has again become a national topic. Specifically, is this bullying? These are two grown men, after all, and it seems to be covered under workplace rules by which most of us are expected to abide. But is there an age limit on bullying? A size limit? When Martin went home and the story came out that he was being bullied by a teammate, Martin became the butt of jokes. It was only when the messages were released that Incognito was suspended by the Dolphins. There was overreaction to the initial story, overreaction to the second, and to everything else since then — including the spate of stories after Sunday’s interview, saying Martin had threatened Incognito’s family. If Incognito is correct, and his text messages reflect the culture of the NFL locker room, that’s a sad commentary on NFL locker rooms. Most players from other teams, however, say that this wouldn’t have happened on their watch, and many of the Dolphins have rallied around Incognito. Which makes you wonder what we’re missing, what we still don’t know. I don’t think we’re going to learn that Incognito is a muchmaligned good guy; his texts speak for themselves, not to mention his past actions. Some believe he was acting at the behest of his coaches; again, there is no proof of that. This story is far from over, however, and although it’s unfashionable not to leap to conclusions these days, it might be worth a try. But chances are the overreaction will continue until Martin speaks in his own defense, publicly or to Wells, and the NFL announces the results of the investigation. Until then, it’s a whole lot of speculation and finger-pointing, signifying nothing.

Comics lovers will be drawn to Ohio museum By Mitch Stacy

The Associated Press

OLUMBUS, Ohio — There is a place where Snoopy frolics carefree with the scandalous Yellow Kid, where Pogo the possum philosophizes alongside Calvin and Hobbes. It’s a place where Beetle Bailey loafs with Garfield the cat, while Krazy Kat takes another brick to the noggin, and brooding heroes battle dark forces on the pages of fat graphic novels. That doesn’t even begin to describe everything that’s going on behind the walls of the new Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum on the Ohio State University campus, opening to the public Saturday. “This is the stuff that makes me drool,” says Jim Borgman, the Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist who now draws the Zits newspaper comic strip. “I enjoy art of all kinds, but it’s as if cartoons were segregated for many years and not allowed into such hallowed halls. And this is kind of a moment of setting things right, I think, giving cartooning its due when it has been in the wings all these years.” Jeremy, the kid from Zits? He’s in there, too, since Cincinnati native Borgman donated most of his art and papers to the museum. The whole thing started with Milton Caniff, the influential comic artist whose beloved Terry and the Pirates and Steve Canyon adventure strips lived in the nation’s funny papers for a half-century. Caniff graduated from Ohio State and loved the place so much that he wanted his original art and other papers to be kept here forever. He handed it all over to the university in 1977. Along with library curator Lucy Shelton, Caswell then began urging his cartoonist friends to do the same. Two classrooms in the journalism building soon began to fill

Newsmakers LaBelle’s bodyguard acquitted of assault

A Harris County jury returned its verdict Monday clearing Efrem Holmes in the 2011 confrontation with Richard King at a Bush Intercontinental Airport terminal.

ABC’s Amy Robach to have double mastectomy

Amy Robach

NEW YORK — A month after undergoing a mammogram on Good Morning America, ABC’s Amy Robach said Monday she has breast cancer and will have a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery this week. The 40-year-old correspondent admitted she had been reluctant to have the public mammogram but went ahead after GMA anchor Robin Roberts told her that if the story saved one life, it would be worth it. “It never occurred to me that life would be mine,” she said. She said she will learn after Thursday’s surgery what her treatment will entail going forward. The Associated Press

With the team being kept in the dark about some dangerous secrets, Coulson (Clark Gregg) must work the system to keep Ward and Fitz (Brett Dalton, Iain De Caestecker) safe during a Level 8 classified mission that could end in tragedy. Ming-Na Wen also stars in the new episode “The Hub.” 7 p.m. on CW The Originals As Klaus and Elijah (Joseph Morgan, Daniel Gillies) seek Sabine’s (Shannon Kane) help in finding the missing Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin), someone from Hayley’s past reveals something that causes her to worry about herself and the baby.

with the new comics archive. “Prior to that, most universities ignored that type of popular culture,” says current curator Jenny Robb. Today, the museum collection includes more than 300,000 original strips from everybody who’s anybody in the newspaper comics world, plus 45,000 books, 29,000 comic books and 2,400 boxes of manuscript material, fan mail and other personal papers from artists. The university says it’s the largest collection of cartoon art and artifacts in the world. The museum has originals from everyone from Richard Outcault — whose Yellow Kid in a 19th century comic strip spawned the term “yellow journalism” — to Charles Schulz (Peanuts), classic Pogo story lines from Walt Kelly, Garry Trudeau’s Doonesbury, Chester Gould’s Dick Tracy, early Blondie strips from Chic Young and the entire collection of Jeff Smith, an Ohio State graduate who created the hugely popular Bone series of comic books. It’s all been moved to a new 30,000-square-foot home in a high-profile corridor of the sprawling Columbus campus, into a space renamed for Ireland, the former editorial cartoonist for The Columbus Dispatch who was one of the pioneers of the art form. His family donated a big chunk of money for the project. Brian Walker, who collaborates on the Beetle Bailey and Hi and Lois newspaper strips created in the 1950s by his 90-year-old father, Mort, is putting together one of the first exhibits. “I told my father, this is what we’ve all be working for 30 years,” says Brian Walker, who has written or contributed to three dozen books on the history of comics. “It’s kind of like the ultimate dream that we hoped would happen someday, where all this great artwork is being kept safely and archived and made accessible to the public.”

B-11

Wife feels trapped in abusive marriage Dear Annie: I have been married for 32 years to a horrible man. He is self-centered, controlling, a liar and a cheat. He manipulated me into buying a house I did not want, and when my mother died in this house, he kicked me out of the room we shared and made me move into the same room she died in. He lied to me about not getting paid for a year, while pocketing $40,000 and spending it on an affair with our best friend’s daughter. He then closed our checking account. Two years later, he bullied me into buying a business, where I worked for four years without pay. He occasionally paid me a little, but then kicked me out of the business and told me to get a “real job.” Annie, he tore my car apart so I couldn’t drive it, and he keeps me broke all of the time. He went behind my back and put the business and home accounts in his name only. I have walked everywhere within three miles of our house looking for work, with no luck. I have no friends because he can’t keep his hands off of them, and I’m tired of making excuses for him. If I bring it up, he calls me a liar. When I finally told him I wanted a divorce, he said he’ll keep the house and the business and there is no money to give me a share. For the past year, I’ve been trying to find a lawyer who will take my case for very little money and haven’t found one. I’m stuck here and losing all hope of ever getting out. His lies and false accusations have made our kids mistrust me. I am emotionally, mentally and spiritually exhausted. I cry daily and wish it could all be over. Don’t suggest counseling, because I have no money for that and can’t get there unless it’s close enough to walk. — Miserable Forever Dear Miserable: This is an abusive marriage — emotionally and financially. You don’t need to find a

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH You might respond on a totally intuitive level and feel as if you know what it is the right path for you. Tonight: Continue being spontaneous. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH You could opt to stay home; work at home, if you must. If at work, your mind might keep focusing on a personal situation. Tonight: Screen your calls. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH While people around you might be emotional and undisciplined, you seem to handle their passionate displays and continue as normal. Tonight: Hang out with your friends. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH You might be focused on completing an important task that has financial ramifications. You could be doing a lot of thinking about your budget. Tonight: Off to the gym to work out. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You will draw someone toward you who serves as a muse for you. When you are with this person, your natural talents seem to expand. Tonight: Be spontaneous. Jacqueline Bigar

Hocus Focus

Dear Annie: I work at a library in my hometown. An 80-year-old woman who uses the computer is always messing it up. She’s there 10 hours a week and does a lot of damage, but no one wants to hurt her feelings by telling her she’s screwing up. This woman is also forgetful and sometimes rude. When someone offers help, she claims she doesn’t need it. When she asks for assistance, she gets irritated and says, “That’s what I was doing!” She’s making things hard for everybody, but my boss is a pushover and won’t get involved. Can we do anything? — Frustrated in Indiana Dear Indiana: We’re not sure how she’s “messing up” the computer in such a way that it’s a major effort to put things right. Can you post a sign next to the computer with simple instructions for operation? Would the boss be willing to require a “training course” for all computer users so that she isn’t singled out? Does no one have the patience to work with her in spite of her snappish attitude? The computer confuses her, and she doesn’t want to admit her weaknesses. Be kind. Dear Annie: Tell “Champ’s Mom” that many states have passed legislation or are considering doing so to teach cursive writing in school. Students who have not been taught cursive can neither read it nor write it. Parents are just beginning to realize that their children don’t have the skills to read their grandparents’ notes. Children want to learn cursive. Please give them the opportunity. — Long Live Cursive
