New Mexico. … Our children are not Republicans. Our children are not Democrats.”

Martinez made a gracious reference to King, whom she attacked mercilessly throughout the course of the campaign. She said she wanted to recognize King and his family “for their legacy of public service to the state. The King family has dedicated a half-century to public service, and for that, they deserve our sincere thanks.”

There was mild applause in the room.

Democrats are in control of the state Senate, 25-17.

Democrats looked solid for only one pickup of a seat in the House. Political newcomer Matthew McQueen, a Democrat from Galisteo, was leading Republican Rep. Vickie Perea in House District 50. Perea, of Belen, was the incumbent by appointment, having been chosen by Martinez to fill a vacancy last year.

McQueen’s fellow Democrat, Rep. Stephanie Garcia Richard of Los Alamos, was on her way to being re-elected.

She was well ahead of Republican Geoff

Republicans were poised Tuesday night to take control of the New Mexico House of Representatives for the first time since 1954.

Democrats entered the election with a 37-33 advantage, but that margin was immediately in danger. Republicans were leading in four races where Democrats were the incumbents. In addition, Republicans picked up a fifth seat in a district without an incumbent on the ballot.

While even narrow Republican control of the House would help Gov. Susana Martinez push her legislative agenda,

Martinez defeated Democrat Gary King, the state attorney general and son of a former governor.

Republican incumbent Dianna Duran was locked in a close race for New Mexico secretary of state with Democratic challenger Maggie Toulouse Oliver as votes were still being counted late Tuesday.

Unofficial, incomplete returns showed Duran slightly ahead of Toulouse Oliver in what has been one of the most hotly contested races in New Mexico.

Duran four years ago was the first Republican to be elected secretary of state in New Mexico since 1928.

A former state senator from Tularosa, Duran sailed to victory in 2010, buoyed by a string of controversies at the Secretary of State’s Office under the tenure of former Secretary of State Mary Herrera.

NATION&WORLD In brief 16 nuke officers disciplined, fired WASHINGTON — The Air Force has fired or disciplined at least 16 nuclear missile commanders or senior officers for misconduct and other failings over the past year and a half, reflecting turmoil in arguably the military’s most sensitive mission.

Another who quit of his own accord lamented upon leaving, “We let the American people down on my watch.”

The latest to be dismissed this week: a colonel accused of “cruelty and maltreatment” of a subordinate and a missile squadron commander found to have illegally discriminated against women under his command.

In addition to those actions Monday, another senior officer was administratively disciplined but not removed from command.

This string of leadership lapses has beset a force that remains central to American defense strategy but in some respects has been neglected.

The force of 450 Minuteman 3 nuclear missiles is primed to unleash nuclear devastation on a moment’s notice.

Russian brought to U.S. for trial RICHMOND, Va. — A Russian member of the Taliban made his first appearance in a federal court in Virginia on Tuesday, marking the first time a military detainee from Afghanistan has been brought to the U.S. for trial.

Irek Hamidullin’s appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge David Novak represents the Obama administration’s latest attempt to show that it can use the criminal court system to deal with terror suspects. His arraignment on 12 terrorism charges has been set for Friday morning before U.S. District Judge Henry Hudson, a former federal prosecutor.

U.S. officials say Hamidullin is a Russian veteran of the Soviet war in Afghanistan who stayed in the country and joined the Taliban. He was captured in 2009 after an attack on Afghan border police and U.S. soldiers in Khowst province.

Mexican mayor, wife detained in case of 43 missing students

By E. Eduardo Castillo The Associated Press

MEXICO CITY exico’s most-wanted couple, accused of running their town as a drug fiefdom and ordering an attack that killed six and left 43 college students missing, were caught Tuesday in a rough-and-tumble neighborhood of Mexico City where they were hiding.

Federal police seized Jose Luis Abarca and his wife, Maria de los Angeles Pineda, in a raid before dawn in Iztapalapa, a working-class neighborhood of the capital. It was a far fall from their reign of wealth and power as the mayor and first lady of Iguala, a town in southern Guerrero state where the students from a teachers’ college went missing Sept. 26, allegedly at the hands of police and a drug cartel.

Even as they were hauled off to the Attorney General’s organized crime unit to give their statements, the capture did nothing to answer the biggest mystery: Where are the students? Their disappearance, and the failure to make progress in the case, has ignited protests across the country and broadsided President Enrique Peña Nieto’s efforts to paint violence in Mexico as a thing of the past.

“News like this just makes you angrier,” said Mario Cesar Gonzalez, whose son, Cesar Manuel Gonzalez, is among the missing students.

Authorities have uncovered mass graves and the remains of 38 people, but none has been identified as the missing students. Besides Tuesday’s arrests, at least 56 other people have been taken into custody, and the Iguala police chief is also being sought.

No shots were fired in Tuesday’s raid on three houses, including the one in which the couple was hiding, according to a federal official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media.

Attorney General Jesus Murillo Karam said 60 federal agents had staked out the three houses, and were tipped off to the couple’s presence by a female associate, Noemi Berumen, who apparently accompanied the couple or aided them in their flight from justice. Berumen was also detained in the Tuesday raids.

“The house they were found in looked as it were abandoned,” Murillo Karam

Military deaths in Afghanistan As of Tuesday, at least 2,207 members of the U.S. military had died in Afghanistan as a result of the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001, according to an Associated Press count.

Spears, 21, of Memphis, Ind., was lost at sea Oct. 1 while conducting flight operations in the North Arabian Gulf; assigned to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron-163, Marine Aircraft Group 16, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, I Marine Expeditionary Force, Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, Calif.

said. “The reason we started to suspect this person [Berumen] was that she appeared to be entering an abandoned house. “ Before they fled last month, the couple ran Iguala like a fiefdom in cooperation with the local drug cartel, Guerreros Unidos. Abarca received up to $220,000 every few weeks as bribe money and to pay off his corrupt police force, according to Attorney General Jose Murillo Karam, who gave a detailed account last month.

The mayor’s wife was a major operator in the cartel, an offshoot of the Beltran Leyva gang, Murillo Karam said. Two of her brothers were on former President Felipe Calderón’s most-wanted drug trafficker list until they were killed in 2009.

A third brother, Salomon Pineda, was believed to run the territory in northern Guerrero state for the cartel.

The students attended a radical rural teachers college with a history of carrying out protests. They had gained the enmity of Abarca because of a previous demonstration in the town, Murillo Karam said. Abarca believed they planned to disrupt a speech by his wife, who aspired to succeed him as mayor, and ordered police to detain the students after they hijacked four buses to provide transportation to a coming protest.

Three students were shot dead in the confrontation and later three bystanders were killed in a separate attack.

Police then picked up the other students and took them to the nearby town of Cocula, Murillo Karam said. At some point they were loaded aboard a dump truck and taken — apparently still alive — to an area on the outskirts of Iguala where some mass graves have been found, he said.

Detained gang leader Sidronio Casarrubias told authorities one of his lieutenants told him the students were sympathizers of a rival gang, the attorney general said.

The search for the students has taken authorities to the hills above Iguala and to a gully near a trash dump in the neighboring city of Cocula, but still no remains have been identified.

Abarca and his wife amassed properties believed bought with illicit funds.

Authorities said they ruled with fear.

Pineda was overheard telling one of Abarca’s political rivals, “You don’t know who you’re messing with.” Days later he turned up dead.

A satellite intended to be the first step in creating an asteroid-mining industry was destroyed last week in a rocket explosion. Its creator, a tiny startup, said the setback won’t keep the idea from taking flight.

“It’s a big, audacious statement to make, that we’re going to bring resources from space to the economic sphere,” said Eric Anderson, co-founder and co-chairman of Planetary Resources.

The satellite was aboard an Orbital Sciences rocket that exploded shortly after launch Oct. 28. Three days later, a spacecraft operated by billionaire Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic crashed during a test flight.

The companies are part of a movement to turn space exploration into a commercial enterprise. The improbable goal for the asteroid miners: as extraterrestrial activities become more common, they plan to provide raw materials that will be more cheaply gathered in space than delivered from Earth.

Losing the foot-long satellite “really hasn’t delayed us at all, in the overall scope of things,” said Anderson.

Planetary Resources is planning its next launch as soon as August, with a larger satellite to replace and expand the functions of the equipment lost last week, said Chris Lewicki, president and chief engineer at the Redmond, Washington-based company, whose investors include Branson.

The 10.3-pound bundle of antennas and computers was about the size of a loaf of bread and was designed to orbit the earth, giving the company’s prospectors practice piloting a satellite.

Future versions will be used to explore asteroids, he said.

The goal is to extract materials including water, iron, nickel and platinum from asteroids orbiting the sun in paths similar to that of Earth, give or take 30 million miles. Planetary Resources plans to produce its first liter of water in 10 years, Lewicki said.

Planetary Resources is one of two companies with programs to explore and mine in space. Deep Space Industries plans to announce its first prospecting satellite launch next month, said David Gump, co-founder and vice chairman of the Houstonbased company.

The company also plans to extract water from asteroids, and split it into hydrogen and oxygen that will be used for applications including refueling communications satellites.

Planetary Resources has a distinctly geeky personality, proudly naming its satellite after a fictional robot- manufacturer mentioned in the film Star Wars, funding projects via Kickstarter and holding casual video question-and-answer sessions that are open to anyone.

GRANTS PASS, Ore. — A woman who unsuccessfully appealed for money online to help care for her autistic son and disabled husband has been accused of throwing her 6-year-old boy to his death off an historic bridge on the Oregon coast.

Police said Jillian Meredith McCabe, 34, called 911 from the bridge in Newport as darkness fell Monday to report what she had done and waited until police arrived.

She described her son, London Grey McCabe, and the clothes he was wearing.

Later that night, a body was reported about a mile from the bridge, and police said they confirmed it was the kindergartner.

Andrew McCabe confirmed Tuesday that his sister-in-law had written an appeal on YouCaring.com, a crowdfunding website, for funds help care for her son and husband. The appeal ended eight months ago, after raising $6,831 toward a goal of $50,000.

“callous indifference” to civilians in airstrikes on homes that felled entire families.

The report also says that “Palestinian armed groups fired thousands of indiscriminate rockets and mortar rounds into civilian areas of Israel,” suggesting violations of international law by both sides.

But virtually all of its 49 pages is devoted to eyewitness testimony and expert analysis of weaponry in eight Israeli attacks that killed 104 people, 59 of them under 18.

Amnesty found evidence of military targets in at least four of the cases, but argues that these were nonetheless “grossly disproportionate.”

Ebola hits health care access for other diseases Malaria, typhoid and other ills go untreated

By Jonathan Paye-Layleh and Sarah DiLorenzo The Associated Press

MONROVIA, Liberia — The Ebola outbreak has spawned a “silent killer,” experts say: Hidden cases of malaria, pneumonia, typhoid and the like that are going untreated because people in the countries hardest hit by the dreaded virus either cannot find an open clinic or are too afraid to go to one.

Evidence of what the World Health Organization calls an “emergency within the emergency” is everywhere in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, the West African countries worst hit by the Ebola epidemic.

It can be seen in a decline in the number of kids being vaccinated for preventable diseases. It can be seen in the mother who crosses Monrovia,

Liberia’s capital, searching for an open clinic that will treat her 3-year-old daughter who has a fever and is vomiting, both signs of Ebola but also of many other diseases. It can be seen at the hospital in Kissidougou, Guinea, which sees not even a tenth of the patients it used to.

It can also be seen at the hospital outside Sierra Leone’s capital run by the medical charity Emergency. It is inundated with patients because nearby hospitals are closed or only partially operating.

“There’s this incredible silent killer health crisis behind the Ebola crisis,” said Eric Talbert, the executive director of Emergency’s U.S. branch.

None of roughly a dozen experts interviewed by The Associated Press could say how many people might be sick or dying for lack of health care. Tracking the diseases that usually plague Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone — malaria, pneumonia, cholera and diarrhea diseases — is difficult

even in the best of times. Now the countries’ already weak health systems are broken down amid the Ebola epidemic.

In July, only about half the health facilities in Liberia were reporting data to the Health Ministry. That doesn’t mean half the facilities were closed,

but it shows many were at least not operating fully. Hospitals and clinics in Sierra Leone have also been forced to shut or curtail their activities.

There are signs of improvement. In Guinea, many facilities were open in September but they were waiting for patients. The hospital in Kissidougou, near where Ebola outbreak began, was seeing only 12 to 15 patients a day at the end of September, compared to the typical intake of 200 to 250 patients, said Dr. Franco Pagnoni, who at the time was WHO’s Ebola field coordinator there.

“If we don’t pay attention, we will have thousands of deaths because of Ebola, but we will have tens of thousands of deaths for other diseases,” said Pagnoni.

WHO noted simply that there are “high numbers of deaths” from other diseases.

In an effort to encourage more clinics to open and accept patients, WHO has developed a set of “no-touch”

guidelines for community health workers who work in small, basic clinics.

With little protective gear, they are supposed to keep their distance from patients and ask, for instance, a mother to feel her child’s forehead to see if he has a fever.

But there is no way to vaccinate someone without touching, and so vaccinators require protection. Vaccination rates have suffered at least in part because immunization campaigns — large events organized to vaccinate children who have missed their routine checkups — have been on hold in all three countries since May. There won’t be any before the end of the year because large gatherings could serve as hotbeds for Ebola transmission.

This could have devastating effects, WHO warned recently, noting that cases of measles have been reported in Ebola-affected countries and that there is a “growing risk of significant measles outbreaks.” An outbreak could create another public health emergency.

3 ELECTIONS 2014

Nail-biter race for state land commissioner too close to call

By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

Incumbent State Land Commissioner Ray Powell and Republican banker and rancher Aubrey Dunn found themselves in a nail-biter as votes were counted Tuesday night.

By 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, the race was still too close to call, and Powell was in no way ready to concede.

“This is what happened last time,” Powell said, recalling his 2010 race against Republican Matthew Rush, who took an early lead on election night thanks to vote totals out of oil- and gasproducing counties in the southeastern and northwestern parts of the state.

However, big margins in Bernalillo and Santa Fe County that year eventually boosted Powell into the commissioner’s seat.

On Tuesday, Dunn pulled ahead of the Democrat by a few thousand votes early on, helped by a lead in absentee voting and overwhelming wins in oil patch counties.

If Dunn pulls off the win, he would be only the eighth Republican to become State Land Commissioner since New

Keller wins close race for state auditor Eichenberg has slight lead in race for treasurer

By Patrick Malone The New Mexican

Tim Keller won the race for state auditor and Tim Eichenberg was leading by less than 3 points in the state treasurer’s race late Tuesday evening.

The latter race remained too close to call as the ballots continued to be counted late into the night.

Keller, a Democrat, beat Republican Robert Aragon in a race that turned surprisingly close. With about a third of all precincts fully reporting, Keller had about a 5-point lead. The Associated Press called the race for Keller around midnight.

Keller, 36, with six years of experience as a state senator, made campaign promises to hold state agencies accountable for spending the money they are allotted to fill vacancies, or return it to the state budget. He’s also vowed to scrutinize education dollars being paid to out-of-state, for-profit companies and to review the money the state spent to bring in five Arizona firms to take over behavioral health services from 15 agencies the Martinez administration accused of fraud.

Aragon, 57, said as auditor he would focus on the core function of the job: auditing every taxing entity in the state, something he says has not been done as well as it could.

Aragon comes from a storied New Mexico political family, and he, too, represents a colorful chapter in its history. He served in the state House of Representatives from 1979 to 1987 as a Democrat, but joined with other conservative Democrats and Republicans to hand the House speakership to the Republicans. Before converting to the GOP, Aragon was the Democrats’ nominee in a 1992 congressional race.

Keller’s campaign raised more money than Robert Aragon’s by a factor of 20 — $414,000 to about $19,920.

Keller will replace current State Auditor Hector Balderas, who was elected attorney general Tuesday.

In the campaign to become the next treasurer, the candidates were talking about education and ways to gain more revenue.

Eichenberg, a Democrat, carried a slim margin over Republican Rick Lopez in a race to replace James Lewis, who can’t run again because of term limits.

Eichenberg, 62, a Realtor, said the state should acquire more federal lands that could then be leased to create a new revenue source for early childhood education at a time when advocates are demanding more funding for early childhood programs.

He also said the State Treasurer’s Office should invest more in New Mexico’s infrastructure to help start construction projects.

Santa Fe resident Lopez, 59, a former state and federal government employee, promised to oppose any proposal to increase the amount of money distributed annually from the state Land Grant Permanent Fund to expand early childhood programs, something Eichenberg says he’s also against. That proposal has drawn heated debate in the state Legislature as education advocates press lawmakers to tap the fund against the resistance of fiscal conservatives.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Mexico became a state in 1912.

Powell was leading handily Tuesday in northern counties such as Santa Fe, San Miguel and Taos. He had pulled ahead of Dunn in pivotal Bernalillo County by 11:30 p.m., with thousands of votes still not tallied.

The state land commissioner is one of the most powerful elected positions in the state with the least independent oversight. The commissioner oversees 9 million acres of surface state trust land and 13 million acres of mineral estate. Money earned from leases and royalties on the state trust lands benefits public schools, universities and state hospitals. Revenue generated from state trust land also covers the annual budget of the New Mexico State Land Office.

Powell was state land commissioner from 1993 to 2002 and was elected again in 2010. The New Mexico State Land Office has been enjoying recordsetting revenues due to increased oil and gas activity and prices, as well as new business leases on state trust land. In October, the State Land Office earned $79.2 million for beneficiaries.

Since the beginning of his latest term, the office has generated $2.3 billion

for beneficiaries.

Dunn waged a loud and energetic campaign. In the weeks leading up to the election, Dunn frequently ran an ad attacking Powell for not helping the family that had managed Dixon’s Apple Orchard on state trust land near Cochiti after it was devastated by floods in 2011.

“The current state land commissioner created roadblocks and additional legal fees” that forced the family to move to Wisconsin, Dunn said on his campaign site.

The ad “narrowed the gap between the two,” said Brian Sanderoff of Research and Polling as Election Day unfolded. “As a result of that, a seat that typically goes to Democrats is in play.”

Powell finally countered with his own ads, saying the family who owned the orchard didn’t have insurance, and he wasn’t going to use state money to bail them out. Instead, Powell said he brokered a deal for Cochiti Pueblo to take over the family’s lease for $1.8 million.

A poll by Research and Polling in mid-October for The Albuquerque Journal found Dunn with a 1-point lead over Powell but with 21 percent of voters still

undecided at that point.

Dunn had the support of former Republican land commissioner Patrick Lyons, who currently serves on the Public Regulation Commission.

Lyons upset many sportsmen when he was land commissioner by cutting deals with northeastern New Mexico ranchers to trade off state trust land around a popular hunting area known as White Peak and restrict access.

“The land commissioner is a very important office for the sportsmen and women of New Mexico,” said Michelle Briscoe of the New Mexico Wildlife Federation. “State trust lands provide a lot of quality hunting opportunity, and some provide critical access to federal public lands. Having seen what a commissioner like Pat Lyons was willing to do — trade away prime hunting areas and shut down public access — we definitely need a commissioner people can trust to put the long-term interests of the trust and the public first.”

One of the biggest differences between Powell and Dunn is over the issue of federal lands. Dunn is part of a growing group of conservative politicos pushing for legislation at the state

and federal level to transfer almost all federal public lands to state control.

In New Mexico, if such a transfer happened, much of the land might come under control of the State Land Office.

Such a transfer is rife with problems and challenges, but Dunn is among those who believe the state can do a better job than the federal government of managing Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management lands. Powell said in campaign ads that Dunn has a “radical agenda” to ultimately privatize state land.

With Republicans now in control of both the House and Senate in Congress, the push for federal legislation to transfer federal lands to states could gain traction, a reality that worries sportsmen and public land advocates.

Powell opposes a wholesale transfer of federal lands to the state, but is not opposed to trade or transfer of some lands that make economic sense for boosting revenue to trust land beneficiaries.

House: Party last controlled the chamber in 1953-54 Continued from Page A-1 Rodgers, also of Los Alamos.

Aside from McQueen’s breakthrough and Garcia Richard holding her seat after a series of inaccurate attacks against her by Republicanbased political committees, Democrats had little reason to be optimistic.

Republican Rick Little of Chaparral defeated Democrat Mariaelena Johnson in Southern New Mexico’s District 53. The incumbent, Democratic Rep. Nate Cote, did not seek re-election. Little represented this district for two years before losing to Cote.

Republicans also were moving toward pickups in these key races: District 36, Doña Ana County: Republican Andy Nuñez opened up a sizable lead over Democratic Rep. Phillip Archuleta of Las Cruces.

Nuñez previously represented this district for 12 years before losing the seat in 2012, after he had switched from Democrat to independent. He may be the first person in state history to represent the same district as a Democrat, a Republican and an independent.

Nuñez also is the mayor of Hatch.

Archuleta, of Las Cruces, broke his right hip, femur and wrist in a fall, then lost his right leg to amputation because of an infection. He missed the entire 30-day legislative session this year because of his injuries, then campaigned in a motorized wheelchair.

years, was trailing Republican John Zimmerman.

Zimmerman took an early lead and built it. An engineer and Navy veteran, Zimmerman lost to Martinez two years ago but appeared on his way to winning their rematch.

District 15, Bernalillo County: Republican Sarah Maestas Barnes had a sizable lead over freshman Democratic Rep. Emily Kane. This was one of the races that the GOP had targeted for a pickup.

Barnes, an attorney, took the lead as soon as absentee and early votes were counted. Kane, a fire captain for the city of Albuquerque, is completing her freshman term in the House.

District 24, Bernalillo County: Republican Conrad James appeared to be on his way back to a seat in the House.

He was leading Democratic Rep. Liz Thomson, who ousted him two years ago.

James, a scientist, has a doctorate from Cornell. After Thomson defeated him, Gov. Martinez appointed James to a seat on The University of New Mexico Board of Regents.

In addition to likely pickups of those four seats, several Republican candidates that Democrats had targeted were either leading or victorious.

Freshman Reps. Paul Pacheco of

Albuquerque and Sharon Clahchischilliage of the Four Corners Area both defeated Democratic challengers with ease.

Republican Rep. Terry McMillan was in a close race with his Democratic challenger, Joanne Ferrary, but he had pulled ahead by a solid margin.

McMillan needed a recount two years ago to defeat Ferrary.

Rep. Nate Gentry, R-Albuquerque, another of the Democrats’ targets, had a comfortable lead in his bid for a third term. An advocacy group backing Democrats had run a blistering campaign against Gentry, highlighting an old drunken-driving charge against him and even alleging that he had used an assumed name at a government conference to disguise his presence at a hotel.

But Gentry broke on top early and had a solid lead over Democrat Bob Coffey.

Two Republicans from Valencia County, Reps. Kelly Fajardo and Alonzo Baldonado, also won re-election by wide margins. Democrats had hoped to pick up at least one of those seats.

Republicans last controlled the House of Representatives in 1953-54, when they had a 28-27 lead.

Gentry and Reps. Dennis Roch of Logan and Don Tripp of Socorro are a few of the names that have been mentioned as those interested in being speaker of the House controlled by Republicans.

Governor: Martinez has denied national ambitions Continued from Page A-1 his quick speech, not sticking around for reporters’ questions.

At the Marriott, Republicans were in a festive mood. Before Martinez’s speech, they cheered when the news came over television that the Republicans had captured control of the U.S. Senate.

Martinez’s chief of staff, Keith Gardner, was at the party, socializing with supporters, as was Albuquerque Mayor Richard Berry. Several Cabinet officials were there, including Public Education Secretary-designate Hanna Skandera, Corrections Secretary Gregg Marcantel, Department of Finance and Administration Secretary Tom Clifford, Taxation and Revenue Secretary Demesia Padilla and Economic Development Secretary Jon Barela. Albuquerque Republican legislators including Reps. Monica Youngblood, Larry Larrañaga and Jim Smith also attended the celebration.

Martinez, who had served as district attorney in Las Cruces for 14 years, became the first woman elected governor in New Mexico and the nation’s first female Hispanic governor four years ago. Almost immediately after that election, national pundits began speculating about Martinez being on the national Republican ticket. Such chatter became a roar last year, when Martinez traveled to New Jersey to campaign for the re-election of Gov. Chris Christie, who at that point was considered a front-runner for the 2016 presidential nomination.

Martinez, however, has steadfastly denied any national ambitions and has promised in recent weeks to serve a full four years of her second

term — even if she is offered the vice presidential spot on the Republican ticket in 2016. And unlike other politicians seeking to build a national profile, Martinez has been camera shy as far as national television is concerned.

Except for a softball interview with Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren in late 2012, she has shunned national news shows and has been selective about agreeing to national print interviews.

Her first term will be remembered largely for fights with the Democratcontrolled Legislature. The state Senate for four years has refused to confirm Skandara, Martinez’s choice for education secretary. And although the Legislature passed one of her major education reform bills, which

mandated that all public schools receive letter grades, lawmakers have balked at Martinez’s call to require third-graders who fail reading tests to be held back.

And perhaps the loudest battle with Democratic legislators has been over Martinez’s proposal to repeal the 2003 law that allows the state Motor Vehicle Division to issue driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants. Martinez’s bills that would have accomplished that have gone down in flames each year she has been in office, after emotional, timeconsuming floor fights. The governor has vowed to continue to push for a repeal of that law in her second term.

But Martinez had one major success

in the Legislature in her first term — a major tax package that saw cuts to the state’s corporate income tax and other incentives that passed in 2013 with the help of Democrats, including House Speaker Kenny Martinez (no relation).

Throughout her recent campaign, Martinez touted that victory not only as an effort to spur job growth in the state, but as an example of her ability to work in a bipartisan manner with the Legislature.

Throughout her first term, Martinez has maintained high favorability ratings. Her poll numbers have never seemed to be hurt by New Mexico’s sluggish economy, and she has remained largely unscathed by controversies. These include her shakeup of the state’s behavioral health system, in which Arizona companies were hired to come in and replace New Mexico providers who found themselves under investigation for possible fraud; lawsuits over alleged violations of the state public records act; and allegations by Democrats and former Republican allies that the administration rigged a lucrative racino contract at the state’s Expo New Mexico event venue for political contributors.

Martinez was able to build an impressive campaign fundraising machine. According to the Secretary of State’s website, she had spent more than $7.9 million by late October.

King had spent just over $2 million, of which nearly $700,000 was his own money.

Balderas will take over state Attorney General’s Office

By Patrick Malone The New Mexican

Democrat Hector Balderas, New Mexico’s current state auditor, rode a tide of statewide recognition to election Tuesday as the state’s next attorney general. He defeated Republican Susan Riedel, a close ally of Gov. Susana Martinez.

Balderas, 41, ascended from humble roots as the son of a single mother living in public housing in the Northern New Mexico village of Wagon Mound.

He served a term representing his hometown in the New Mexico House of Representatives before being elected to two terms as state auditor.

Fresh off an earlier appearance where he was introduced by the high school basketball coach who loaned his mother $65 so Balderas could participate in the sport, the attorney generalelect received a warm welcome from fellow Democrats at the DoubleTree

by Hilton Hotel Albuquerque, where not every candidate that followed him

to the podium could bask in the same glow of victory.

“I want to be the type of attorney general that looks up to citizens, while others look down to those citizens,” Balderas said.

Hector “I want to be the type Balderas of attorney general who never runs from a fight, and that there are no longer any forgotten communities or forgotten people in the state of New Mexico.”

Throughout the recent campaign, Balderas emphasized his experience on the statewide government and political stage. In particular, he stressed that auditing government agencies throughout the state gave him the tools to enforce accountability, and he said the climb to attorney general was a natural progression.

“I can only hope that Mr. Balderas does a good job and works hard for our state,” Riedel said Tuesday. She would

not rule out that she might run for office in the future.

Balderas pledged to create a task force with the U.S. Attorney’s Office to combat Medicaid fraud, add staff to bolster consumer protection against fraud and create a new division focused on preventing wage theft by employers and penalizing businesses that steal workers’ time.

Riedel, 56, ran on a tough-on-crime platform that touted her 25 years of experience as a prosecutor, including 14 years as the chief deputy district attorney in Las Cruces, working alongside Martinez when the latter was district attorney there.

Riedel’s ties to the governor run deep.

She helped Martinez campaign for election as district attorney in Las Cruces, and after Martinez became governor, she appointed Riedel to the District Court bench in 2011. Riedel lost the seat in an election a year later.

Last year, Martinez appointed Riedel to the New Mexico Public Defender Commission, causing an uproar because

of Riedel’s credentials as a prosecutor.

Riedel resigned from the commission soon after the appointment to launch her campaign for attorney general.

Riedel’s campaign pitch emphasized the attorney general’s role in fighting convicted criminals’ appeals, as well as a regulatory philosophy that consumers benefit from the consumer cost savings of a business-friendly attorney general.

Throughout the campaign, Riedel accused Balderas of using the Attorney General’s Office as a stepping stone to pursue higher office. His bid for the Democratic nomination in the 2012 U.S. Senate race fell short.

During the campaign, Balderas answered Riedel’s criticisms by questioning whether his opponent could independently carry out the duties of the attorney general, considering her close ties to Martinez.

Balderas enjoyed a fundraising advantage of more than 3-to-1 over Riedel.

Balderas will replace sitting Attorney General Gary King, the Democratic nominee for governor who lost to

Udall wins second term Weh comes up short in U.S. Senate race as House incumbents keep their positions The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — As Republican challengers ousted Democratic senators in fiercely fought key races across the nation, allowing the GOP to seize control of the Senate while expanding its majority in the House, all four of New Mexico’s congressional delegates seeking re-election Tuesday were able to hold on to their seats.

Democratic U.S. Sen. Tom Udall won a second term in a victory over Republican Allen Weh, who had launched an aggressive campaign and managed to narrow Udall’s lead in the weeks leading up to Election Day. All three of New Mexico’s U.S. House seats were up for grabs. Democratic U.S. Rep. Ben Ray Luján won a fourth term in the 3rd Congressional District, with a victory over Republican Jeff Byrd, while Democratic Rep. Michelle Lujan Grisham survived a challenge from Republican Mike Frese in the 1st District, and Republican Rep. Steve Pearce fended off a feisty attack from Democrat Roxanne “Rocky” Lara in the 2nd District.

A popular former attorney

general and congressman, Udall had a sizable campaign fund and was favored by pollsters early as one of a handful of Senate members who had a 99 percent chance of retaining his seat.

Weh, a retired Marine colonel and a longtime Albuquerque businessman, put up some of his personal fortune trying to unseat Udall.

The campaign was peppered with negative TV ads, including one in which Udall claimed his opponent would back tax cuts for the wealthy.

Weh criticized Udall for his support of President Barack Obama’s effort to overhaul the nation’s health care system and inaction to address the growing national debt.

Luján, vice chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, has said making New Mexico more competitive will be at the top of his list when he returns to Washington.

The congressman also has called for the National Nuclear Security Administration to be restructured to better balance defense programs with other research. His district includes Los Alamos National Laboratory.

In Santa Fe County, the question was passing by a 3-to-1 margin. The question also was ahead in Bernalillo County, but by a closer margin.

Pat Davis, executive director of ProgressNow New Mexico, an Albuquerquebased liberal-leaning organization that had campaigned in support of putting the issue before voters in two of the state’s most populous counties, called it not just a win but a mandate for the Legislature “to pick up this issue and run with this ball.”

saying promises he made to Northern New Mexico residents have gone unfilled.

Grisham said throughout the campaign that the economy and jobs should be the focus.

She touted her efforts to help preserve a program at Kirtland Air Force Base and millions of dollars in grants for projects in New Mexico.

She also went to bat for veterans after investigators uncovered large-scale improprieties in the way Veterans Affairs hospitals and clinics around the country scheduled veterans for appointments.

Despite attacks by immigrant rights’ groups and others, Pearce has remained popular

among constituents in his Southern New Mexico district, which covers a large swath, including some of the state’s most productive oil and gas wells.

Pearce, a Vietnam veteran and former state lawmaker, held the congressional seat from 2003 to 2009 before being elected again in 2011.

Pearce has been critical of big government, but a barrage of television advertisements by Lara in the remaining weeks of the campaign targeted him over cuts to Medicare.

Lara’s effort to unseat Pearce had help from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

County voters favor easing pot penalties

By Daniel J. Chacón

Martinez on Tuesday. King has faced criticism that justice has been eluded several times during his eight years as attorney general because his office has been slow to complete high-profile investigations.

Most recently, the Attorney General’s Office has been blasted even by some of King’s Democratic allies in the Legislature for the meandering pace of its probe into 15 behavioral health providers ousted last year by the Martinez administration over allegations of fraud that have yet to be proven.

On the campaign trail, both Balderas and Riedel vowed to prioritize the behavioral health investigation and reconcile it quickly.

“I want to make sure that we expedite services and that we try to operate in a more transparent manner,” Balderas told The New Mexican, “and that would also encompass the behavioral health issue.”

ers got to weigh in on that.”

The ballot questions are nonbinding and only take the electorate’s pulse on whether commissioners in each county should support efforts to reduce penalties for possession of an ounce or less of marijuana.

Both questions, which some said were an attempt to draw more Democraticleaning voters to the polls in those populous counties, got on the ballot under unusual circumstances.

The effort started this summer when ProgressNow New Mexico and the political and advocacy arm of Drug Policy Alliance, known as Drug Policy Action, launched citizen initiatives in Santa Fe and Albuquerque. The groups filed petitions for initiatives to reduce marijuana penalties and sought to collect the required number of voter signatures in each city to

get the questions on the November general election ballot.

The groups succeeded in Santa Fe. But in a surprise move, a split City Council voted 5-4 to adopt the initiative outright, making Santa Fe the first city in New Mexico to decriminalize possession of small amounts of marijuana.

In Albuquerque, the groups failed to collect the required number of signatures.

After Mayor Richard Berry vetoed a City Council resolution to put the question before voters, Bernalillo County commissioners voted to put an advisory question on the ballot. The commission’s decision was along a party-line vote, with Democrats approving the question for the ballot.

Santa Fe County commissioners followed suit, though their vote to put an advisory question on the ballot was unanimous.

State District Judge Sheri Raphaelson’s job was in doubt Tuesday night as unofficial election results showed her just below the minimum level for judicial retention.

Raphaelson was just above the 57 percent threshold needed to keep her position in Santa Fe County, but was getting just 52 percent of the “yes” votes in Rio Arriba County. Los Alamos County sent a stronger message against the judge, with more than 55 percent of voters there casting “no” votes on whether to keep her on the bench.

The First Judicial District includes all three counties, but most of the votes are in Santa Fe County, and it was possible that absentee ballots or provisional votes could change the outcome.

In a rare move, the state Judicial Evaluation Commission issued a “do not retain” recommendation on Raphaelson’s retention. She was one of only two judges, among the 85 evaluated by the commission, to receive the negative opinion.

Voters must have been listening.

She was appointed in 2009 by Gov. Bill Richardson and hears criminal and civil cases, primarily in Tierra Amarilla.

Tom Bell, an engineer, and Pat Bell, a retired planner, said after leaving the polls Tuesday that they followed the evaluation commission’s recommendation on all the judicial retention races, including Raphaelson’s.

Trial attorney Steve Tinkler, 66, said he voted against Raphaelson based partially on the recommendation but also based on comments from fellow lawyers who said they’d had bad experiences with the judge.

“I personally have not had any bad experiences with her, but I know a number of other trial lawyers that have, and I respect their opinions,” he said.

Raphaelson also may have been hurt by the efforts of the Center for Civic Action, an advocacy group that sent two mailers to voters in Rio Arriba County the week before the election, urging voters not to keep her.

Raphaelson told The New Mexican on Monday that she did not want to be called for comment on results of the election, regardless of which way

the vote went.

If the final tally goes against her, Raphaelson could stay on the bench until the state Canvassing Board certifies the results of the election in a few weeks, or she could choose to resign.

Her departure would create a vacancy on the District Court bench, which would be filled the way any other midterm vacancy is filled — by the convening of a Judicial Nominating Commission, which would interview candidates and make recommendations to the governor.

The governor would then be able to appoint one of the nominees to the bench. Whomever is appointed would have to run in the next election to keep the post.

The evaluation commission recommended that voters keep the four other judges who stood for retention in the First District — T. Glenn Ellington, Raymond Z. Ortiz, Sarah Singleton and Mary Marlowe Sommer — and all were retained.

Three District Court judges who were appointed in the past — Matthew J. Wilson, Francis J. Mathew and Sylvia LaMar — had to run in the election to keep their posts this year.

Mathew and LaMar were both unopposed and will be able to stay on the bench for at least six more years until they have to stand for a retention vote.

Wilson lost his post to Santa Fe lawyer David Thomson in the primary, but was selected by the Democratic Party’s state Central Nominating Committee to have his name placed on the ballot for a new judgeship that was created by the Legislature during the last session.

Both Wilson and Thomson will have to wait for the Canvassing Board to certify the results of the election, and will most likely take the bench in about a month.

Ortiz, the district’s chief judge, has said he will shuffle the court dockets to keep Wilson in charge of the domestic cases that he is more experienced with and give Thompson a general civil docket.

Judge Jennifer Attrep, who was appointed in July to fill the newly created ninth judgeship until the election, will step down when Thomson assumes his new post.

Justice retains seat despite criticism over gay marriage decision

By Phaedra Haywood The New Mexican

New Mexico Supreme Court Justice Edward Chavez’s 2013 opinion clearing the way for same-sex marriage in New Mexico attracted negative attention from conservatives, but voters decided Tuesday to keep him on the bench.

Despite being singled out by the New Mexico Center for Family Policy, NM Watchman Jose Vasquez, For God’s Glory Alone Ministries and political blogger Politix Fireball — all of whom advised voters not to retain Chavez because he had co-authored the landmark decision — Chavez easily

received the necessary 57 percent of the vote to keep him on the bench — as did all the statewide judicial officeholders.

Chavez, 57 — who was appointed to the court in 2003, won election in 2004 and won retention in 2006 — is safe in the $131,000-per-year position and will remain one of the five justices on the state’s highest court for eight more years.

“I think he’s a really good judge,” said trial attorney Steve Tinkler, 66, as he left a polling place Tuesday.

Chavez could not be reached for comment late Tuesday.

Incumbent Court of Appeals Judge Miles Hanisee, 49, also was heading to

a narrow victory over his opponent, Albuquerque lawyer Kerry Kiernan, 60, in the only contested race on that court. If Hanisee prevails, he won’t have to worry about campaigning for his $125,000-per-year position for the next six years.

Hanisee — who was appointed by fellow Republican Susana Martinez in 2011 — lost his seat to Judge Monica Zamora and was then reappointed to fill the seat vacated by Celia Foy Castillo. He has been critical of New Mexico’s hybrid system of selecting judges, which requires those who are appointed to win at least one contested election.

“Politically branded judicial elections engender persistent conflicts of interest, appearances of impropriety and delays to the orderly administration of justice for which litigants wait during the most difficult days of their lives,” he wrote in an op-ed piece published in the Albuquerque Journal in August. “If nothing else, sitting judges shouldn’t be identified on ballots by party label.”

Despite his fears that partisan politics might play a part in the polls, Hanisee’s Republican affiliation may have helped him Tuesday.

Pam Bell, 64, a retired Department of Transportation planner, said Tuesday that she voted for Hanisee because of

his political affiliation.

“I’m sick of the Democratic Party,” she said.

The final results in the race were still being tallied.

Three other Court of Appeals judges who stood for retention on the 10-member court this year — Linda M. Vanzi, Cynthia A. Fry and James J. Wechsler — all appeared to have been retained by voters. They must get affirmative votes from at least 57 percent of the people who vote on whether they should stay on the bench.

GOP: Few bright spots for Democrats Continued from Page A-1 victory. Contests that were expected to be close were not, and races expected to go Democratic broke narrowly for the Republicans. The uneven character of the economic recovery added to a sense of anxiety, leaving voters in a punishing mood, particularly for Democrats in Southern states and the Mountain West, where political polarization deepened.

The biggest surprises of the night came in North Carolina, where Republican Thom Tillis came from behind to beat Sen. Kay Hagan, and in Virginia. There, incumbent Democratic Sen. Mark Warner, a former governor of the state, was thought to be one of the safest in his party, and instead found himself clinging to the narrowest of leads against former Republican Party chairman Ed Gillespie.

Those contests were measures of how difficult the terrain was for Democrats in an election where Republicans crafted their strategy as a referendum on the competence of government, embodied by Obama.

House seats where Democrats had fought off Republican encroachment for years were finally toppled. Gov. Scott Walker, a Republican, was easily re-elected in Wisconsin, a state that voted twice for Obama. In Florida, Gov. Rick Scott, once considered endangered, finished the night on top. And states that had seemingly been trending Democratic, like Colorado, fell into Republican hands.

With at least a nine-seat gain and most likely more, House Republicans will have close to 245 seats, the largest Republican majority since the Truman administration.

“Barack Obama has our country in a ditch, and many of his lieutenants running for the Senate were right there with him,” said Reince Priebus, chairman of the Republican National Committee. “The punishment is going to be broad, and it’s going to be pretty serious.”

The breadth of the Republican victories

also reset the political landscape ahead of the 2016 presidential campaign. And it left Obama with a decision: Will he move toward Republicans in his final years in areas of common interest, such as tax reform and trade, or will he dig in and hope Republican overreach will give his party a lane for a comeback?

“Just because we have a two-party system doesn’t mean we have to be in perpetual conflict,” vowed McConnell, in a victory speech that extended the president an olive branch.

For Republicans, the victories piled up, not only winning Senate Democratic seats they were expected to take — Montana, West Virginia, South Dakota and Arkansas — but also in states that were supposed to be close. Rep. Cory Gardner, a Republican, crushed Sen. Mark Udall in Colorado. In Georgia, Democrat Michelle Nunn, daughter of former Sen. Sam Nunn, was widely expected to force Republican businessman David Perdue into a runoff for the Senate seat of retiring Republican Saxby Chambliss. Instead, Perdue won more than half the vote to take the race outright.

Sen. Pat Roberts, a Kansas Republican, also fended off independent challenger Greg Orman, who just weeks ago appeared headed to victory.

And for Democrats, it could get worse.

Votes were still being tallied in Alaska, where Sen. Mark Begich, a Democrat, was trying to hold back the wave. Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu was able to force her strongest Republican foe, Rep. Bill Cassidy, into a December 6 runoff. But the combined vote of the top two Republicans in the race easily eclipsed hers.

“I think it’s a message from the American people about their concern about the direction of the country and the competency of the current administration,” said Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio, vice chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. “Most people have voted to end the dysfunction and to get back to leg-

islating on issues that will help them and their families, and I think that’s something that both parties need to listen to.”

One bright spot for Democrats came in New Hampshire, where Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, the Democratic incumbent, fended off Scott Brown, the former Republican senator from Massachusetts, according to projections by The Associated Press.

And in the panhandle of Florida, Gwen Graham, daughter of a former Democratic senator and governor, defeated Rep. Steve Southerland, a tea party favorite.

But those high notes were swamped by the lows for the president’s party. In Arkansas, Rep. Tom Cotton, a freshman Republican and an Iraq War veteran, defeated Sen. Mark Pryor, despite the efforts of former President Bill Clinton.

In Colorado, Udall tried to replicate the storied ground game that helped propel his Democratic colleague, Sen. Michael Bennet, to a victory in 2010. He wasn’t even close, and drew further criticism for running a campaign that some felt was too focused on abortion rights and contraception.

And in West Virginia, Rep. Shelley Moore Capito, a Republican, won the Senate seat long held by Jay Rockefeller, a Democrat, to become that state’s first female senator and the first Republican elected to the Senate from West Virginia since 1956.

For their part, Democrats were hindered by their inability to persuade members of the coalition that delivered the White House to Obama — young voters, women and minorities — to turn out at levels seen in presidential elections. Decisions like Obama’s delay of executive action on behalf of immigrants in the country illegally also angered crucial constituencies.

Even the president conceded the steep climb his allies faced. “This is possibly the worst possible group of states for Democrats since Dwight Eisenhower,” Obama told a Connecticut radio station Tuesday. “There are a lot of states that are being contested where they just tend to tilt Republican.”

Secretary: Candidates split on voter fraud Continued from Page A-1 for nearly 30 years, was the GOP’s top votegetter four years ago — even ahead of Gov. Susana Martinez, who was elected that year.

Duran had secured the support of six Democratic county clerks, including then-Santa Fe County Clerk Valerie Espinoza, who endorsed Toulouse Oliver in this election.

Toulouse Oliver, who has served as Bernalillo County clerk for seven years, ran an aggressive campaign, raising and spending more money than Duran. She accused Duran of turning the Secretary of State’s Office into a “partisan political organiza-

tion” serving the interests of Republicans instead of everyday New Mexicans.

Duran portrayed Toulouse Oliver as a left-wing activist “with a long-standing relationship with dark money organizations” who couldn’t care less about the integrity of elections.

One of the biggest issues in the race was whether voters should be required to show photo identification at the polls.

Toulouse Oliver took the position that voter fraud was not as prevalent as Duran portrayed it to be and that requiring photo identification would do more to suppress voter participation than root out fraud.

Duran said a single case of voter fraud was one too many.

“Voter fraud exists,” Duran said at a recent forum in Santa Fe. As recently as Sunday, Duran posted on her campaign website a television story about the first confirmed case of voter fraud in this election in Rio Arriba County.

“Dianna Duran is the only candidate who cares about honest elections,” the website states.

WASHINGTON — Now that power has changed hands in the Senate, there are two scenarios for what is likely to get done in Washington over the next couple of years: not much, and nothing at all.

The new Republican majority was elected with virtually no agenda beyond stopping President Barack Obama’s — something they were already pretty successful at doing as the minority.

Their leader, Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., preoccupied with his own re-election, has conspicuously avoided setting out any grand ambitions — such as putting entitlement programs on sound financial footing or overhauling the immigration system or rewriting the tax code.

“There are some obvious things. We’d be voting on the Keystone pipeline” as well as several modifications to the Affordable Care Act, McConnell said at a campaign stop last Friday. “A number of things that, I think, there’s a majority in the Senate for.”

But “voting on” legislation is not the same thing as enacting it. Republicans will be short of the 60 votes needed to overcome filibusters by a Democratic minority that is expected to feel little incentive to compromise. The Republicans would have to have even more — 67 — to override a presidential veto.

Thus far, Obama has used the veto only twice during his presidency, on bills that had technical flaws, but aides say he is ready to assert that power as frequently as it takes to protect the things he cares about.

That is why the goal most often mentioned by this year’s Republican candidates — repealing the Affordable Care Act — remains out of reach.

“Practically speaking, with President Obama in the White House, that’s probably not gonna happen,” McConnell said.

“But we’ll certainly be voting on it,” he added.

McConnell and Obama each offered a gesture of cooperation Tuesday.

As results began to show the early signs of a strong Republican night, the White House let it be known that Obama had invited the bipartisan congressional leadership for a meeting on Friday. And McConnell, in his victory speech, pointed to an “obligation to work together on issues where we can agree.”

“Just because we have a twoparty system doesn’t mean we have to be in perpetual conflict,” he said.

Meanwhile, House Republicans, who on Tuesday were expected to expand their majority, say they will recycle a raft of bills, most of them relatively narrow in scope, that they’ve passed before but never gotten through the Senate. Among other things, those measures would open up more oil and gas drilling, require government agencies to disclose more about their process of writing regulations, and encourage employers to hire more veterans.

On the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue, White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough has been holding regular meetings with Obama’s top aides in recent weeks to map out their strategy for the final two years of his presidency, factoring in the new alignment of power on Capitol Hill.

Barring an unlikely outbreak of bipartisanship, Obama plans to focus on things that remain largely within his control: foreign policy, as well as the ongoing implementation of the health care law, financial market regulation and other laws passed early in his presidency.

Obama also plans to use his executive authority, aides said.

One much-anticipated order would allow some-yet-to-bedetermined number of illegal immigrants to remain in this country, a move that would likely inflame the issue just as both parties try to regroup

before the 2016 elections and court crucial Hispanic voters.

Other executive orders could come on climate change, White House press secretary Joshua Earnest said Tuesday, adding a less-than-subtle suggestion that Democrats see political upsides in drawing the GOP into a more robust debate on that front.

“There are still, you know, too many Republicans in Congress who even deny the basic scientific fact that climate change is occurring and something that policymakers should be concerned about,” Earnest said “So the president will use his executive action to take some additional steps, but he is also going to continue to talk about this issue in a way that lays the groundwork for action by future presidents and future congresses.”

Obama also has an eye on his legacy and on softening the turf for presidents that follow him to act on issues that matter to him.

Even after an election in which largely unregulated outside groups spent an unprecedented $500 million on congressional races, the chance of passing campaign finance reform legislation “is rather remote,” Earnest said. “But the president is going to continue to talk about that issue, and he’s going to continue to try to push that issue.”

Before the new Congress is sworn in, there will be a closely watched lame-duck session in which Democratic and Republican lawmakers will be able to test their realigned relationship.

Senior aides in both parties say that, at a minimum, the Senate will have to agree upon a bill to fund the government, to reauthorize operations in Syria, prevent a tax increase on the Internet and pass a defense policy bill.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., is also expected to use his final days in charge of the chamber to push through as many Obama nominees as he can — possibly including the president’s yet-tobe-announced pick to replace Attorney General Eric Holder.

Then Republicans will get the reins.

There is a case to be made that the new majority will feel compelled to rack up some achievements, if for no other reason than to show that the Republican Party that was blamed for a 16-day federal shutdown last year knows how to govern.

The electoral map in 2016 will be a hostile one for the GOP — almost an exact inverse of this year’s — with 23 Republicanheld seats on the ballot, many of them in states carried twice by Obama. Those facing re-election may feel intense pressure to move toward the center.

But it is just as easy to argue that partisan lines will be hardened. About a half-dozen Senate Republicans are seriously considering running for president, which means they will be playing to the party’s conservative base. One of them, Ted Cruz of Texas, told The Washington Post last weekend: “I think we have seen election after election that when Republicans fail to draw a clear distinction with the Democrats, when we run to the mushy middle, we lose.”

Senate Democrats, meanwhile, are expected to hunker down. It will be in their political interest to resist giving the GOP any legislative victories to claim and to keep the distinctions between the two parties as sharp as possible in the run-up to 2016.

And there are a few pieces of legislation in which signficant agreement already exists between the two parties. Some that might actually get to Obama’s desk and be signed into law: new spending on infrastructure; trade bills; changes in the corporate tax code. And, yes, the Keystone oil pipeline that has been a point of tension between the parties and within the Obama administration.

Americans face long fight against ISIS

A

mericans still don’t seem to get that the fight against the socalled Islamic State has just begun and will last for years.

They must also realize that U.S. military power won’t decide the issue.

“It’s a three- to four-year effort, because that’s what it’s going to take to get the indigenous forces prepared and to do this,” Gen. Ray Odierno, the U.S. Army’s chief of staff, told CNN on Wednesday.

“It’s just the beginning,” Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said at a Thursday news conference. “This is a longterm effort.”

The next day, Rear Adm. John Kirby, Pentagon spokesman, told reporters, “You can’t judge the complete success of the campaign after … just three months [of U.S. and coalition forces bombing].”

“It’s going to take some time,” he added, repeating President Barack Obama’s warning on Sept. 11, when he announced the Islamic State would be hit in Syria as well as in Iraq.

No matter. The message hasn’t registered.

The Defense Department is certainly preparing for a long fight.

For example, on Oct. 24 the Air Combat Command of the U.S. Air Force issued a notice to potential contractors that it plans a follow-on contract that could run for eight years, starting in October 2016, to operate, maintain and support Air Force Central Command’s major war reserve materiel facilities in Oman, Qatar, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates.

DynCorp won the current contract in 2008. The new contract could go through 2024.

The sites hold prepositioned equipment for the U.S. Air Force and Army. Here’s just a few items: u Mine-resistant ambush protected vehicles (MRAPs). u Medical contingency hospitals for expeditionary medical support. u Basic expeditionary airfield resources — facilities and equipment that could house 3,300 airmen and 72 fighter aircraft at expeditionary locations.

The contract proposal includes a section titled,

OUR VIEW

Now, the hard work begins

T “Munitions Contingency Operations at Al Udeid,” an air base in Qatar. It says that during “contingencies” the base will be a “munitions hub,” also utilizing facilities at “Falcon 78,” an ammunition storage area.

Another section of the proposal, “Employment in Time of War Plan,” requires the contractor to develop “a supplemental compensation and protection plan to retain a workforce capable of sustaining preparation and outload operations … in the event WRM [war reserve materiel] sites come under attack by hostile fire.”

The current contract runs upwards of $70 million a year, plus some additional costs.

That’s just for the Air Force.

The United States spent more than 4,000 U.S. lives and $800 billion in Iraq, fighting and trying over 11 years to rebuild that country after the ill-conceived 2003 invasion.

For almost eight of those years, we had more than 70,000 U.S. troops there. The effort did not result in a Baghdad government that had the support of the nation’s ethnic and religious elements.

Americans should have learned from that experience.

And from Vietnam 40 years ago.

Obama has.

Iraqi boots on the ground are the only ones that can defeat the Islamic State in Iraq. But that also requires a political settlement among Shiite, Sunni, Kurd and other ethnic and religious groups that make up what is an artificial nation assembled decades ago by Western European governments.

Obama must remain firm in keeping U.S. military advisers in Iraq at division or brigade headquarters and not at lower tactical levels, where they could be directing small-unit operations, for example.

That was the slippery slope in Vietnam, then Iraq and Afghanistan. If Iraqi forces aided by U.S. advisers don’t turn the tide, it would be a long-term mistake to send in U.S. combat troops. The result would be permanent U.S. occupation — or leaving, as we did in December 2011.

So far, Obama has leveraged limited military support to try to jump-start a tone of governmental inclusion.

Obama delayed instituting U.S. bombing of Islamic State units until the Baghdad leadership changed, with former Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki giving way to Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi.

Now the United States may be delaying the dispatch of U.S. assist-and-advise teams to

headquarters in the Anbar area that’s threatened by Islamic State forces until, as Kirby put it, there is “increased collaboration between Iraqi security forces and Sunni tribesmen” in that area.

The U.S. long-term plan calls for the re-establishment of an Iraqi national guard system as a way to bring Sunni, Shiite, Kurd and local militias into the Iraq security system, leaving the mostly-Shiite Iraqi army to protect the borders.

However, as Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Thursday, that step requires the Iraqi government to pass a law to establish the guard system, and that will push implementation to next year.

Odierno summed it up this way: “The long-term war against [the Islamic State] needs to be fought by the indigenous capability there. It needs to be fought by Iraqis.

It needs to be fought by Syrians. It needs to be fought by other Arabs, because it’s their country and they need to win that back.”

He’s right, and Americans must understand and accept our limitations in this fight.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Consider ethics in the wilderness debate

W

ilderness supporters must applaud The New Mexican and Ed Moreno for the story, (“Debate rages over Wilderness Act in midst of climate change,” Oct. 19). The article provides a valuable explanation of the debate between the stalwart preservationists and advocates of policy to deal with climate change.

However, Moreno writes that William Cronon alleges that “America banished indigenous people to reservations for the sake of a defined wilderness.” It is hard to believe that the historian Cronon would make such an argument. Native people were banished to make way for land-hungry farmers, speculators and railroads.

The activists in the wilderness debate would do well to reread Aldo Leopold’s Sand County Almanac, especially The Land Ethic and Wilderness.

Working for food New Mexico Human Services Department Secretary Sidonie Squier wants some food stamp recipients to do 20 hours a week community service (“Groups file lawsuit to block food benefits rule,” Oct. 28) to receive benefits.

Eighty hours a month for an average $128 in benefits is $1.60 an hour.

If Squier wants to teach the poor about working for a living, their work should provide a living. Author and journalist Barbara Ehrenreich (Nickel and Dimed) has said that a living wage in Santa Fe is about $18 per hour. That’s $1,440 for 80 hours of work.

The largest beneficiaries of food stamps are the owners of fast food chains and big box stores who don’t pay their employees enough to buy groceries. Will they have to do community service?

help with their lack of a moral compass.

Maybe the state should pay Squier $1.60 per hour. Personally, I don’t think she is worth that much.

Offensive cartoon I am disappointed that the editors of The New Mexican saw fit to print the racially offensive editorial cartoon (Glenn McCoy, Oct. 19, Opinions) taking a jab at First Lady Michelle Obama for her efforts to push better nutrition for children. Why the artist and your editors thought that an offensive caricature and unwarranted attack on someone trying to improve children’s health was an appropriate thing to run is beyond comprehension.

It was and is pathetic. McCoy is a smallminded and mean-spirited cartoonist.

Santa Fe

he dust is settling after an election season — both nationally and in New Mexico — that was unpleasant and uninspiring. Going negative might win an election, but it seldom gives candidates or political parties direction on how to lead.

Consider that in New Mexico, some $12.2 million was spent on political advertising going into the final week of the campaign. All of that money, and our gubernatorial campaign ranks among the country’s most negative, according to an analysis of races nationwide.

This, despite the substantial lead that Gov. Susana Martinez maintained throughout the election season. Negativity was hardly necessary, and it wasn’t contained to the governor’s race. The contest for U.S. Senate had its unpleasant moments, and in certain legislative battles, outside groups from the left and the right outright lied in campaign literature.

Now, winners must shake off the dust of negativity and begin forming plans to govern.

New Mexico desperately needs focus and smarter direction. Whether in reducing poverty, encouraging economic growth, rebuilding roads and bridges, supporting teachers and students, shoring up mental health services or promoting farmers and ranchers, the state demands a governor and a Legislature who work together. Only through teamwork and compromise can New Mexico live up to its potential.

Voters understand that the most important issue in New Mexico is not whether immigrants who crossed the border without documentation have a driver’s license. It never has been. Yet Gov. Martinez returns to the license issue again and again. It’s as if, by denying certain people licenses, she will cure what ails the state. Such sound bites do not make New Mexico stronger or safer.

We can no longer afford to take up precious time nattering about licenses (or any of the other topics that eat up hours in the Legislature for little progress).

In the campaign season, candidates can spend with abandon, stretch their opponents’ records and go negative to win — but governing demands fiscal prudence, truth telling and positive plans. Today, the winners will celebrate.

Losers will lick their wounds and ponder the what ifs.

That’s for today. Then, we trust, the winners will sit down and put together their plans of action. In New Mexico, we urge legislative leaders from both parties to sit down with the governor and her aides and, together, put together a list of priorities. What can be changed — quickly — through legislative action? What needs fixing? What can wait until better times?

Find three shared priorities — we might choose adjusting ineffective education reforms, funding shovel-ready infrastructure projects and reforming New Mexico’s tax system. Those in charge, working collectively, might identify other priorities. And that’s as it should be, so long as they can set goals together and work on them with a sense of urgency. Jobs. Energy. Lottery scholarships. Hunger. The campaign is over. Governing starts now.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Nov. 5, 1914: Artesia — When Mrs. Gregorio Gonzales, living four miles north of town, sent to a neighbor’s to borrow a small amount of kerosene for her lamp, the latter sent her gasoline. As a result, the woman probably will die and her husband is in serious condition. Mrs. Gonzales attempted to pour the gasoline into the lighted lamp and an explosion resulted. The flaming oil was thrown over her, setting fire to her clothes, and portions of her body were horribly burned. The husband was seriously burned about the arms and hands while attempting to save his wife.

Nov. 5, 1964: Food Bargains — T-Bone steak .98 lb., Round Steak .85 lb., Large eggs .49 Doz., Hills Brothers Coffee .79 lb., Shurfine canned milk 9 for $1, lettuce .10 lb., bananas 2lbs. for .25, flour 10 lb. bag .79.

Nov. 5, 1989: Berlin — Four weeks to the day since a few thousand East Berliners took to the streets to demand political change, at least a half million demonstrators jammed the heart of the East German capital on Saturday for the largest rally so far in what one speaker called a “revolution from below.” At the same time, reports from Prague, the Czechoslovak capital, said East Germany had agreed to let its citizens leave for the West from Czechoslovakia by simply producing their internal identity documents.

Newsmakers Dunham disputes abuse allegations in tweets

Lena Dunham

NEW YORK — Lena Dunham disputed a writer’s contention that she sexually abused her little sister. In a recent essay for the conservative National Review Online, Kevin D. Williamson cited a passage from Dunham’s best-selling memoir Not That Kind of Girl in which she recalled kissing and touching her sister, Grace. “Very disturbing behavior,” Williamson wrote.

In response, Dunham posted several tweets over the weekend that she called a “rage spiral.” She wrote that the allegations were “upsetting” and “disgusting.”

NEW YORK — A rare piece of artwork painted by Vincent van Gogh weeks before his death has sold for $61.8 million at a New York auction of big-ticket impressionist and modern art.

The 1890 painting, Still Life, Vase With Daisies and Poppies, had expected to fetch between $30 million and $50 million.

The auction record for a van Gogh is $82.5 million.

Tuesday’s auction at Sotheby’s also brought in $101 million for Chariot, a rare sculpture by Alberto Giacometti.

The 1951 bronze sculpture features an elongated goddesslike figure perched atop a wheeled chariot. The price almost broke the $104.3 million record for the artist.

Amedeo Modigliani’s Tete, sculpture sold for $70.7 million, just topping the previous auction record for the artist at $69 million.

All of the prices include the buyer’s premium.

Van Gogh painted Still Life, the bouquet of wildflowers, at the French home of his physician, Dr. Paul Gachet, in 1890.

It’s one of the few works the Dutch artist sold during his lifetime.

It was purchased by the current owner around 1990.

Chariot is embellished with paint to enrich the textural quality of the bronze, has been in the same collection for over 40 years.

Giacometti made six casts of the Chariot during his lifetime.

The one for sale is one of only two painted examples.

Another important sculpture at the sale is Amedeo Modigliani’s Tete.

The deitylike elongated head was carved in 1911 and 1912 from a block of limestone scavenged from a Paris construction site.

The auction house Bonhams, which is selling more than 700 items from the homes of Lauren Bacall, is offering two Henry Moore sculptures from her collection on Tuesday.

The legendary actress’ other artwork, jewelry and furniture will be offered for sale in March.

NEW YORK — Television viewers proved to not have much interest in seeing Kate Walsh as a misbehaving judge, a manufactured Utopian society created for the cameras or the How I Met Your Mother love interest portraying a lawyer in love.

All are television concepts that viewers have rejected.

The actors and creators learned within the past week that their programs have no future, joining ABC’s Manhattan Love Story, the first program canceled this fall.

Fox’s Utopia was perhaps that network’s biggest disappointment. Fox scheduled the reality series for two nights a week this fall, but quickly cut that back to only Fridays when it got off to a slow start.

When the Nielsen company reported that this past Friday’s episode reached a paltry 1.5 million viewers, Fox pulled the plug. The online part of the show stopped on Sunday.

NBC’s comedies Bad Judge and A-to-Z, which stars Cristin Milioti, remain on the air, but

the network announced it will stop making new episodes when the initial order ends, so the programs will Kate Walsh limp along until January.

With Thursday night football’s run on CBS ending, the network rearranged its schedule, returning The Big Bang Theory to Thursdays.

TV’s most popular comedy grabbed 16.2 million viewers in its return.

Fox’s telecast of the gripping finale of the San FranciscoKansas City World Series was the most-watched prime-time show last week, Nielsen said.

CBS won the week in prime time, averaging 10.8 million viewers. Fox averaged 8.1 million, and won among viewers aged 18 to 49. NBC had 7.6 million, ABC had 6.7 million, Univision had 2.7 million, the CW had 1.7 million, ION Television had 1.1 million and Telemundo had 1 million.

S.F. business survey finds rules impede growth 7,000 get questionnaire, but only 83 responded

By Daniel J. Chacón The New Mexican

Santa Fe businesses are once again voicing concerns about red tape at City Hall, saying it’s one of their barriers to growing, according to a new survey.

The survey was developed by the city’s Economic Development Division, “due to a lack of response” from

Santa Fe businesses invited to participate in a Mexican trade mission sponsored by the New Mexico Trade Office, according to city documents.

The 21-question survey was sent to about 7,000 businesses. Only 83 responded and completed all or part of the survey.

Simon Brackley, president and CEO of the Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce, said the survey shows that businesses are experiencing a “continued frustration” with red tape and complex regulations at the city government.

“They’ve been discussed for many years,” he said Monday. “Seemingly, it’s not been a priority for the governing body and the management of the city.”

But Kate Nobel, acting director of the city’s Housing and Community Development Department, which includes economic development, said in a statement that the response level was too low for valuable results and that the city is “re-tooling the survey” and hopes to increase participation.

“In the meantime, these comments are simply counterproductive,” she

said, referring to Brackley’s remarks.

“We all share the goal of growing local business and attracting entrepreneurs to make our economy stronger,” she said. “Mr. Brackley knows that [Mayor Javier Gonzales] has reserved a seat for business on every major task force and commission. He’s appointed business people to critical advisory committees and has instituted regular monthly meetings with businesses to make sure their concerns are heard.

All in the interest of creating the unity that makes change happen, rather than the divisiveness that holds us all back.”

ELECTION DAY

Among the survey’s findings: About half of respondents rated Santa Fe’s business environment as “fair.” Ten percent rated it “poor,” 24 percent rated it “below average,” 14 percent rated it “above average” and 3 percent rated it “excellent.”

Business regulations, or “red tape,” and the city’s permitting, licensing and impact fees were listed as barriers to growing businesses. So were the city’s “high” minimum wage and cost of living, as well as a lack of a qualified

Voters say negative ads annoying Midday turnout low at many polling spots

oting was sluggish at a number of polling locations during the day Tuesday, but voters from both parties had some strong words to say about the election campaign, especially about untruthful attacks on candidates.

Kathie Rossi-Rooney said she couldn’t wait until Election Day was over.

At the Genoveva Chavez Community Center, where she voted, Rossi-Rooney said she was sick and tired of all the negative ads.

“I want them [the candidates] to tell me what they stand for, not what the other guy did wrong,” she said, adding that too many ads from both sides of the political spectrum were “slanderous.”

Daniel Wendland, 40, with his 1-year-old son, Arjun, votes Tuesday at Aspen Community Magnet School.

Rossi-Rooney, who cast her ballot for Gary King for governor, was especially perturbed by a television spot and a mailer in which Dianna Duran, the Republican candidate for secretary of

state, charged that her opponent, Maggie Toulouse Oliver, currently Bernalillo County clerk, ignores voter fraud, “even after her office registered a dog to vote.”

The ad referred to a 2012 incident in which a man registered his Labrador retriever at The University of New Mexico to expose alleged problems with the voter registration system.

Duran supports voter identification laws, saying they will combat voter fraud; Toulouse Oliver opposes them.

Another King voter, John Baxter, 87, said he is “really sick of the political ads. There’s been so many lies this time. It’s unreal.”

On the other side of the political aisle, Gregory Miltenberger, 37, said he, too, was looking forward to the day when he could turn on his television set and not have to watch a political ad.

He said he voted for incumbent Republican Gov. Susana Martinez because he did not like what he read and heard about King, particularly King’s comment that Martinez was “not Latina” enough to lead the state.

Mexican boy to have tumor surgery at UNM U.S. Homeland Security helped bring youth to U.S.

By Russell Contreras The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — An 11-year-old Mexican boy suffering from a massive tumor, who drew international attention after U.S. Homeland Security Investigations helped him get treatment in New Mexico, is scheduled to have a series of surgeries in Albuquerque to remove the large growth on his shoulder.

The boy will have his first operation later this month at University of New Mexico Hospital in what is expected to be a long road to recovery, said Kristean

Alcocer, the Spanish ministry coordinator at the First Baptist Church of Rio Rancho.

“We are very, very excited,” Alcocer said. “We’ve been waiting for this for two years now, and it’s finally going to happen.”

In July 2012, U.S. Homeland Security Investigations helped in picking up the boy and his parents from a neighborhood in Ciudad Juárez — a city plagued by drug cartel violence.

Federal agents helped the family seek care for the boy, known as Jose, after First Baptist Church members saw him during a missionary visit.

A state District Court judge on Tuesday declined to accept a plea in a case involving a 23-year-old hearingimpaired man accused of assaulting and attempting to abduct a woman outside a downtown bar last winter.

After a sign language interpreter explained the details of the proposed plea privately with Ryan Catron, First District Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer said, “I’m not taking the plea. You just saw it today. That’s not how I take pleas.”

Ryan Catron She did not disclose details of the proposed plea.

Marlowe Sommer said she also wanted an update on how Catron’s therapy was progressing, calling it “critical” to the case.

Last December, Catron allegedly confronted a 26-year-old woman outside El Paseo Bar and Grill on Galisteo Street and asked her for a ride to his car.

Police say the woman agreed to help him, but when they got to his car, he allegedly choked the woman and tried to force her into his car.

State police used a helicopter to track Catron to his home in the Eldorado subdivision. He was indicted on charges of kidnapping, aggravated battery and resisting, evading or obstructing a police officer. He spent four months in the county jail in lieu of posting a $35,000 cash-only bond. He was released in April after Marlowe Sommer agreed to allow his father to post 10 percent of a $55,000 bond, based on Public Defender Matt Swessinger’s argument that Catron’s case is unique because he is deaf.

Grievance filed in Navajo Nation presidential race Ex-candidate wants challenger tossed over role in federal lawsuit The Associated Press

FARMINGTON — A former Navajo Nation presidential candidate is challenging the qualifications of a current candidate for the office, adding another wrinkle to the beleaguered race that has already seen a postponement of elections.

Myron McLaughlin, who finished eighth in the primary election for tribal president, filed a grievance late last week with the Navajo Office of Hearings and Appeals seeking to have candidate Russell Begaye removed from the ballot, The Daily Times reported.

Begaye is a shareholder representative for the Navajo Nation Oil and Gas Co. and was involved in a federal lawsuit that sought to overturn a decision by the tribe’s Supreme Court that reinstated the company’s CEO and five board members.

The court declined to hear the case, but McLaughlin’s complaint states that Begaye violated tribal law by being a party in the lawsuit, demonstrating that he does not have an “unswerving loyalty” to the tribe and “attacked the sovereignty of the nation.”

Begaye denied the allegations, telling the newspaper that the lawsuit was not filed against the tribe but against the company’s CEO and board members.

“The whole thing, to me, is that it’s a ploy,” Begaye said. “They don’t want me on the ballot.”

Begaye finished third in the Aug. 26 primary election. Only the top two finishers are eligible to run.

In brief ‘Meet the Mayor’ session is Monday Santa Fe Mayor Javier Gonzales is a busy man, and getting a face-to-face appointment with him could take weeks.

But the mayor holds public office hours when residents can show up for a five- to seven-minute meeting with him.

The next “Meet the Mayor” will be from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Monday in the Mayor’s Office at City Hall, 200 Lincoln Ave. No appointment is necessary, and meetings are conducted on a first-come, first-served basis. In a news release issued Tuesday, the city said, “All residents of Santa Fe are invited

to ask questions, discuss ideas or concerns, or just say hello.”

For questions, call Frank Cordero at 955-6342 or email fxcordero@santa fenm.gov.

Survey: Higher wages also cited Continued from Page B-1 employee base.

“The city’s survey … shows that high mandated wages and red tape are very frustrating to local small businesses,” Brackley said.

Santa Fe has a Living Wage Ordinance that establishes minimum hourly rates. The ordinance was adopted in 2003 and amended by the City Council in 2007 to tie the minimum wage to annual increases in the Consumer Price Index for the Western region.

Santa Fe’s minimum wage, the third-highest in the nation, went up to $10.66 an hour in

March, a 15-cent increase.

Gonzales said there are things that “we may never see eye-to-eye on,” referring to Brackley, who has criticized the so-called “living wage” before.

“I am not going arbitrarily cap the wages of hardworking people, especially as the cost of living goes up,” Gonzales said. “But there is much, much more we do agree on, and that’s where I am focused.

ARTHUR R. GARCIA July 22, 1938 - November 1, 2014 Heaven gained a beautiful angel November 1, 2014. After fighting a vigorous battle of aggressive stomach cancer, Art was called to Heaven the evening of November 1, 2014. He peacefully passed in his home while surrounded by his children.

Art was a family man, a hard working man and a man of Faith. His Faith gave him strength to endure the pain and yet still continue to make everyone laugh. He was loving and compassionate man. He was the type of person to give his last dollar and shirt off his back to anyone who needed it.

He worked hard every day for his family, yet worked because he loved his customers. A stranger could walk into the barbershop and leave as a friend, and a friend that became a part of the Guadalupe Barber & Beauty family; a part of the legacy.

Art will forever hold his legacy in our hearts, in Santa Fe, and throughout New Mexico.

He is preceded in death by his wife Olivia M. Garcia; his parents Henry and Maria Pacheco Garcia; brother Henry Garcia, Jr. and his in-laws Andres and Filomena Martinez.

He is survived by his four children, Arthur Ray (Maddie) Garcia, Carolyn (Randy) Rodriguez, Dianna (Steve) Sanchez, Michelle Lahargoue (Joaquin Chavez); 11 granchildren and 4 ½ greatgrandchildren; sisters Mary Jane Mundle, Henrietta Clokey, Jean Regensburg and Theresa Recker.

Pallbearers will be Josh, Randy, Steve, Michael, Mario and Frankie. Honorary pallbearers, all customers of 56 years.

A visitation will be held Tuesday, November 4, 2014 at 6:00 pm at Cristo Rey Catholic Church with a Rosary to follow. Mass of Christian Burial will be Wednesday, November 5, 2014 at 10:00am at Cristo Rey Catholic Church with burial to follow at Rosario Cemetery.

Tumor: Church funds aid youth Continued from Page B-1 boy’s identity secret because his family still lives in Ciudad Juárez.

The boy was diagnosed with venous lymphangioma on his shoulder and told by doctors at UNM Hospital that he must undergo a series of surgeries and treatments to remove the huge fluid buildup.

For the past two years, the church has raised money for the boy, who is now living in Rio Rancho, Alcocer said.

Jose’s plight drew support from Gov. Susana

Martinez, who asked federal officials to extend his stay in the U.S. so he could continue treatment.

In August, the boy was hospitalized for five weeks because of an infection, church officials said.

Alcocer said the surgeries will involve removing the tumor and reconstructing his shoulder bone. He will also have excess skin removed, Alcocer said.

“He doesn’t want to know all the details,” Alcocer said. “But he’s ready.”

they were taking part in a fraudulent scheme, said Mitchell Rose, a supervisory special agent with Homeland Security Investigations in San Francisco.

They received visa-related documents in exchange for about $2,700 a semester, Rose said. Many of them left the country on their own after the school was raided in 2011, while others applied to regain their student status.

The Tri-Valley case is not unique in the Bay Area. Jerry Wang, the chief executive officer of Herguan University and the University of East-West Medicine in Sunnyvale, is also facing visa fraud charges in connection with what authorities say is a similar scheme. He has pleaded not guilty and is scheduled to go on trial next month.

In the Tri-Valley case, employees testified that the school had no graduation and admission requirements, and that Su instructed her staff to fabricate transcripts and other documents.

Voters: Ballot had amendments and bonds Continued from Page B-1 Santa Feans interviewed at seven polling sites, regardless of party, repeatedly said they were exhausted and annoyed by the mud slung in this campaign.

That wasn’t their only challenge. Voters also had to contend with a lengthy ballot, which included candidates for governor, secretary of state, state auditor, state treasurer, attorney general, commissioner of public lands, the state representatives and judges, as well as members of the U.S. House and Senate. They also were asked to vote for or against five constitutional amendments and three bonds, which would provide funding for senior citizen centers, schools and libraries, as well as an advisory opinion about whether possession of 1 ounce or less of marijuana should be decriminalized.

Voter turnout at about half those sites was considered light by volunteers before noon Tuesday. But workers at the Santa Fe County Fair building and the Chavez Center on Rodeo Road said traffic was steady to busy from 7 a.m., when the polls opened.

Even those involved in the campaign seemed tired of it all — few if any volunteers holding campaign signs were seen at polling places around town.

But pollster Brian Sanderoff of the Albuquerque-based Research and Polling said that in itself may not be so surprising because a lot of the campaign field work revolves around the more highly contested legislative races, and “the heart of Santa Fe doesn’t have any of those.”

As of early afternoon Tuesday, Sanderoff did not have any firm figures regarding voter turnout around the state. The Santa Fe County Clerk’s Office said it would not release those numbers until all the polling sites had closed and the votes had been counted.

About 102,000 people in Santa Fe County are eligible to vote. According to the Secretary of State’s Office website, about 53,800 Santa Feans voted in the 2010 gubernatorial race.

Statewide, the number of early and absentee ballots cast was considerably smaller than four years ago, when the last gubernatorial race took place.

Voter interest across the country was low despite the U.S. Senate being up for grabs.

Both voters and poll workers reported some instances of machines jamming up, creating brief delays.

At the Chavez Center, 102-year-old Anna Marie Houser initially made X’s in all the oval spaces on the ballot instead of filling them completely in.

“It’s the first time I messed up in over 50 years of voting,” she said. Calling herself “Mrs. New Mexico” because she and the state are the same age, Houser said she is despondent over the state of education in New Mexico. She said when she watches television commercials showing Gov. Martinez reading to third-graders, she thinks, “The third-graders should be reading to Martinez.”

To be honest, she said, “no

one has done the state any good” in all the years she has voted.

Most Santa Fe voters interviewed Tuesday said they were choosing Gary King for governor — not surprising, given the strength of the Democratic Party in the city. But several said their vote was more of a symbol of their opposition to Martinez than support of King.

A majority said they favored the county advisory question supporting the decriminalization of possession of 1 ounce or less of marijuana, with several saying that it’s a relatively harmless offense.

While many poll workers reported seeing mostly voters over the age of 50, some on the south side said they encountered voters as young as 19 or 20.

Sarah Abrams-White, 42, brought her three homeschooled boys — aged 7, 11 and 13 — with her to the Chavez Center for an educational experience. She voted a straight Republican ticket but said she did not respond to some of the bond questions and constitutional amendments because she was not familiar enough with them to make an informed decision.

She was one of the few encountered Tuesday who did not mind the barrage of political ads, since they led to discussions with her sons about the election.

“America is awesome,” she told the three boys. “You can vote.”

Although all three vowed to take part in the process once they turned 18, none of them displayed much enthusiasm.

“It’s kind of boring,” said 13-year-old Peter White — a point echoed by this two brothers.

Mississippi State quarterback Dak Prescott, right, hands off to running back Josh Robinson in Saturday’s game in Starkville, Miss. No. 1 Mississippi State won 17-10.

Mississippi State, Florida State and Auburn held the top three spots in the second College Football Playoff rankings, with Oregon joining them in the top four Tuesday night.

Marcus Mariota and the Ducks, coming off a 45-16 win over Stanford, moved up one spot from fifth in the initial poll by the 12-member selection committee. They moved in ahead of Alabama, a third team from the West Division of the Southeastern Conference that was also up one place to fifth.

ROGELIO V. SOLIS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

“It was very close, and I think it’s the product of Oregon’s other wins they have,” Arkansas athletic director and selection committee chairman Jeff Long said. “They have the Michigan State win, but they also, again, went on the road against UCLA and won, and a couple of wins that made their body of work, put them a step ahead of [Alabama] at this point.”

Mississippi dropped seven spots to 11th after its second consecutive loss, 35-31 to Auburn. The Rebels remained ahead of four one-loss teams from power-five conferences, directly ahead

life and have his relationship with his son and get back to playing football,” Peterson’s attorney, Rusty Hardin, said.

NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said the league “cannot provide a timetable” for that.

“We will review the matter, including the court record, and then make a determination on his status,” McCarthy said.

The Vikings said they were aware of the plea agreement, and would have further comment “at the appropriate time.”

OJO CALIENTE — Josie Adams waited almost impatiently outside the double doors that led into the gymnasium Waldorf 3 belonging to Mesa Vista High Coronado 0 School.

The Santa Fe Waldorf head volleyball coach was persona non grata — suspended for what amounted to the biggest match of the season that has happening inside those doors. She could hear the crowd and feel the sensation of about 150 people emotionally moving and swaying with every pass, set and hit.

“You could feel the vibration,” Adams said.

But it wasn’t until she heard a group of girls screaming — her Lady Wolves, it turned out — that she was free to enter those doors. And what she saw when she entered the gym moved her in only a way a coach could. A stream of 14 delirious girls dressed in black surrounded her in the celebration of a season — and maybe a lifetime for many of the Lady Wolves.

They swept the Coronado Lady Leopards 25-23, 25-17, 30-28 in the District 1A playoff on Tuesday night that gave Waldorf the top seed for the district tournament and the home court advantage for the championship on Saturday at Christian Life Academy.

When Alex Chastenet’s tip kill bounced off Angel Martinez and away from the court, the Lady Wolves celebrated wildly. After exchanging handshakes with Coronado and the referees, they raced toward the exits as Adams made her entrance.

“I burst into tears,” Adams said.

“There are some strong women here.

A big tree fell in our path, and we’re going to climb right over it.”

The emotions that had been stirring for the past four days — those stemming from Adams’ suspension by the New Mexico Activities Association for violating videotaping bylaws when a parent was alleged to have taped a Lady Leopards’ match last week — poured out.

On the court, though, Waldorf (18-3) showed steely-eyed determination against an equally tough opponent. The match was filled with long rallies, momentum turning plays and a to-the-pain finale that made the 90-minute match feel like the fivegame marathons the two teams produced during the regular season.

“It was as intense as the other two,” Chastenet said. “It was even more intense because the seniors were leading and Mr. [Daniel] Wendland helping us with rotation, but we really had to rely on ourselves.”

That was never more evident than in Game 3. After breezing to a 20-8 lead in Game 2 before taking it 25-17, the Lady Wolves looked lethargic and maybe too focused on the moment.

They stopped hitting at the net and they gave Coronado (15-6) ample

Peterson cuts deal, stays out of jail

UNM lost last 5 games against Boise State

By Will Webber The New Mexican

ALBUQUERQUE — If it can happen there, to them, then why can’t it happen here?

If Boise State can do it, why can’t The University of New Mexico?

That’s the question Lobo football fans have undoubtedly asked countless times over the years. How is it that a nondescript program in a decent-sized town in an out-of-theway Western U.S. state can seemingly emerge out of nowhere to become Bob Davie a perennial power and an occasional player on the national stage?

UNM head coach Bob Davie said it’s not as simple as saying if it can happen there, it should happen here, too.

Asked that very question during his weekly media luncheon on Tuesday, Davie said Boise State’s tradition is what paved the way to its current status as America’s mid-major sweetheart.

The Broncos (6-2, 3-1) will bring that tradition and winner’s mentality to University Stadium on Saturday night for a Mountain West Conference game against the Lobos (3-5, 1-3). Kickoff for the nationally televised game on CBS Sports Network is scheduled for 5 p.m.

UNM is coming off a dramatic win at UNLV, its first November road win in nine years. The Lobos are 3-1 on the road this season and 0-4 at home.

They are winless in five meetings with Boise State.

When he looks at what the Broncos have done over the years, Davie can’t help but be impressed. Establishing a consistent winner, he said, is a whole lot easier when the program’s foundation is built on success.

Long before Boise State made waves as the smurf-turf darlings of college football, long before it became a fixture in the Top 25 and

By Juan A. Lozano The Associated Press

CONROE, Texas innesota Vikings star Adrian Peterson avoided jail Tuesday by reaching a deal with Texas prosecutors to resolve a child abuse case that revived a national debate about corporal punishment.

Peterson was sentenced to a form of probation after pleading no contest to a misdemeanor charge of reckless assault for using a wooden switch to discipline his 4-year-old son. It was not immediately clear how the plea deal would affect his playing status or whether he might be subject to a new NFL policy that calls for a six-game suspension without pay for a first domestic violence offense.

The All-Pro running back was indicted in September on a felony charge of injury to a child after the incident earlier this year in suburban Houston. He has been on paid

“I stand here and I take full responsibility for my actions. I love my son more than any one of you could even imagine and I’m anxious to continue my relationship with my child,” Peterson said outside the courthouse after accepting the plea deal.

“I’m just glad this is over,” he added. “I can put this behind me, and me and my family can continue to move forward.”

He was not allowed to be near his son while the case was pending, but now can resume having contact with the boy.

scouting in many cases. As technology zoomed from big-screen projectors to hand-held video camcorders to digital cameras to cellphone videos, it has shrunk the miles that stand between schools to a simple click of a mouse.

Heck, you can watch prep football games from the comfort of your home thanks to ProView Networks, and there are coaches who have done that for scouting purposes.

Of course, those recordings are done with the tacit approval of the home team.

Still, what happened at last week’s Coronado-New Mexico School for the Deaf volleyball match was a violation of the spirit — if not the letter — of

the bylaw. What this incident shows, though, is that the ability for teams to police each other is getting harder — if not wilder.

I’ve recorded volleyball matches, mainly for the purposes of posting it on The New Mexican’s website for our readers to see. The terms that come with having a press pass allow for that purpose.

But what about some random person — a third party, as Coronado head coach Bill McLauglin put it — in the stands? It’s not that hard to sit inconspicuously in the stands and record a sporting event, especially considering that all it takes is a smartphone to do that.

Ten years ago, it wasn’t that hard to witness a someone with a digital camera in the stands and figure out what was happening.

But with cellphones today, it’s a bit harder to discern what a person is doing — although watching them move the camera with the action is quite the dead give-away.

But if no one observes a recording, what is to stop someone from sending it to coaches around the state for them to see?

Nothing really, except for a keen eye or a very careless recorder.

Maybe it’s time to put a stop to this gamesmanship. Technology has advanced, why can’t the NMAA?

Peterson: Must pay $4K fine, do 80 hours community service

The Associated Press

MIAMI — James Harden had 25 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds, Dwight Howard added 26 points and 10 boards, and the Houston Rockets stayed unbeaten, Rockets 108 beating the Miami Heat 108-91 on Tuesday night.

Heat 91 Trevor Ariza added 19 points for the Rockets (5-0), who used a 13-0 run late in the fourth quarter to pull away.

Chris Bosh scored 21 points for Miami (3-1).

Dwyane Wade added 19, and Shawne Williams and Mario Chalmers each scored 12.

The Rockets outscored Miami 25-14 in the final quarter. Houston went 17 for 37 from 3-point range and now has 213 points from beyond the arc this season — as opposed to 198 points on 2-point baskets.

RAPTORS 100, THUNDER 88 In Toronto, DeMar DeRozan scored 16 points, Patrick Patterson had 14 and the Raptors beat the depleted Thunder.

Lou Williams scored nine of his 12 points in the fourth quarter and Tyler Hansbrough got eight of his 12 at the free-throw line as the Raptors improved to 3-1.

Serge Ibaka had 25 points and 11 rebounds for a short-handed Oklahoma City team playing the second game of a back-to-back. Reggie Jackson added 13 points and a career-high 14 assists.

The Thunder began the game with eight active players and finished with six. Forward Perry Jones departed with an apparent right knee injury early in the second half, and guard Sebastian Telfair was ejected for a flagrant-two foul with 1:57 left after he struck Hansbrough in the face.

BULLS 98, MAGIC 90 In Chicago, Pau Gasol had 16 points and 13 rebounds, and the Bulls beat the winless Magic despite playing without Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah.

Jimmy Butler led the Bulls with 21 points and Taj Gibson added 16 for Chicago, which finally pulled away in the final minutes of a game that was tied after three quarters.

Rose missed his second straight game after injuring both ankles Friday against Cleveland.

He took part in the morning shootaround and was listed as probable, but was taken out of the starting lineup about a half hour before the game after going through warmups.

BUCKS 87, PACERS 81 In Indianapolis, Brandon Knight had 23 points for Milwaukee, including a key jumper with 22 seconds left.

The Pacers shot 39.7 percent while playing without starters George Hill (bruised left knee), David West (sprained right ankle) and Paul George (fractured leg).

Milwaukee led 43-38 at the half and opened the third quarter with a 10-0 run. The Bucks led by as many as 17.

WIZARDS 98, KNICKS 83 In New York, Paul Pierce and Garrett Temple scored 17 points apiece, and the Wizards beat the Knicks for the fourth straight time.

Kevin Seraphin had 15 points for Washington, which pulled away with a 14-0 run in the third quarter and won its third straight game. Backup guard Andre Miller added 12 points.

Carmelo Anthony had 18 points on 8-for-23 shooting.

PELICANS 100, HORNETS 91 In New Orleans, Anthony Davis had 24 points, 13 rebounds and three blocks, leading New Orleans to its first victory since its season opener.

Tyreke Evans added 16 points and 10 rebounds for the Pelicans, who bounced back from Monday night’s 93-81 loss at Memphis. Ryan Anderson scored 16 points and Austin Rivers had 12.

The Pelicans (2-2) shot 46 percent and outscored Charlotte by 10 points in the second half when they turned the ball over just three times.

cases lately, including Carolina Panthers defensive end Greg Hardy, Arizona Cardinals running back Jonathan Dwyer and former Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice.

After receiving plenty of criticism for initially handing Rice only a two-game suspension, Goodell announced in August that he was toughening the league’s punishments for domestic violence.

Attention to the issue rose considerably in September, when a video surfaced showing Rice knocking out his then-fiancée — and now wife — in a casino elevator; he soon was cut by the Ravens and indefinitely barred by the league.

Peterson has said he never intended to harm his son and was disciplining him in the same way he had been as a child growing up in East Texas. The boy suffered cuts, marks and bruising to his thighs, back and one of his testicles, according to court records.

Peterson had tentatively been set to go on trial Dec. 1. If he had been convicted of the felony charge, he could have faced up to two years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Instead, he received two years of deferred adjudication, a form of probation. He was fined $4,000 and must complete parenting classes and perform 80 hours of community service.

His no contest plea wasn’t an admission of guilt but was treated as such for sentencing.

Peterson will have no travel restrictions. If he completes his probation without incident, the misdemeanor charge will be removed from his record.

Montgomery County District Attorney Brett Ligon said he believed the plea agreement was in the best interest of Peterson’s son.

“The probation is all about making him a better parent,” Ligon said.

Last month, a visiting judge denied a request by prosecutors to have a new judge appointed to the case. Prosecutors had accused Montgomery County state District Judge Kelly Case of being biased against them.

The plea deal made moot a pending motion by prosecutors to revoke Peterson’s $15,000 bond for alleged marijuana use while he was

out of bond. Peterson will, however, be subject to random drug tests under the agreement.

Corporal punishment is on the decline in the U.S. but still widely practiced in homes and schools. In every state in the country, a parent can legally hit their child as long as the force is “reasonable.” But what’s considered reasonable varies from place to place.

The Texas Attorney General’s Office notes that belts and brushes “are accepted by many as legitimate disciplinary ‘tools,’” but “electrical or phone cords, boards, yardsticks, ropes, shoes, and wires are likely to be considered instruments of abuse.”

Texas law says the use of non-deadly force against someone younger than 18 is justified if a parent or guardian “reasonably believes the force is necessary to discipline the child or to safeguard or promote his welfare.”

Ligon said the decision to indict Peterson was “a reflection that this went beyond what was reasonable in regards to being a parent. I believe Mr. Peterson is accepting responsibility.”

Desert Academy sweeps Monte del Sol

By Edmundo Carrillo

TODAY

The New Mexican

What’s the point of playing if you can’t have a little fun?

The Desert Academy volleyball team definitely enjoyed itself in a 25-10, 25-14, 25-16 sweep of Monte D. Academy 3 del Sol in the first round of the District M. del Sol 0 2AAA Tournament on Tuesday in New Mexico School for the Deaf’s Larsen Gym. The second-seeded Lady Wildcats will host Dulce at Larsen Gym at 6:30 p.m.

Wednesday for a chance to play Santa Fe Prep in the championship match on Friday.

The Lady Wildcats weren’t all business Tuesday. They were singing and dancing along with the music blaring over the speakers after Game 1 and continued the antics after Game 2. While they may have looked unfocused, it actually helps them stay in the game.

“When we have fun and just relax and

mess around and joke while we’re playing, we usually play better,” said senior captain Tori Heath. “It brings us together, and it’s just fun.”

And head coach Natalie Passalacqua is cool with it. With all the hard work the Lady Wildcats put in the offseason to move up to AAA after spending years in what is now AA, it’s only fair that they enjoy themselves.

“They want to work and they want to win, and I think the best way to do that is to have some fun,” Passalacqua said. “If they’re relaxed, I think they’re gonna play.”

On top having more fun, Desert Academy also had more size than the Lady Dragons. Monte del Sol has six sophomores and no seniors on its 10-player roster, and it didn’t have the height at the net,

leaving a lot of Desert Academy’s shots to wear out the back line.

Monte del Sol head coach Pablo Cerquera wants his team to work on its blocking, but he still knows things can only get better for his young team, which played its final match of the 2014 season.

“I am encouraging them to practice to jump higher to be able to block,” Cerquera said. “Next year is going to be better.”

The Lady Wildcats will continue their season against a Dulce team that they have already beaten twice this season.

They didn’t sweep the Lady Hawks, beating them 3-2 and 3-1, but they’re hoping the swagger they had on Tuesday will help them get into the championship match.

“If we have confidence, then we’re definitely going to be able to win,” Desert Academy senior Cassidy Hart said.

Even during district tournament time, and a little fun and relaxation goes a long way.

Ranking: Bulldogs, Seminoles unbeaten Continued from Page B-5 of Baylor, Nebraska and Ohio State — Nos. 12-14, and all higher than a week ago.

Auburn is the highest ranked of the 12 one-loss teams in the rankings that will ultimately determine the national semifinals, and set matchups for the other four marquee New Year’s Day bowls that are part of the playoff rotation.

Mississippi State held on to No. 1 after a 17-10 victory over Arkansas, when the Bulldogs trailed after halftime for the first time this season. Florida State overcame a 21-0 deficit at Louisville and won 42-31.

The Bulldogs and Seminoles are the only

remaining undefeated teams from powerfive conferences, and Long said “it really wasn’t close” to any chance of them flipflopping in the top two spots.

“We stayed pretty consistent with the way we looked at 1 and 2 with Mississippi State and Florida State,” Long said.

“Auburn was a little bit behind in No. 3, but they were a solid No. 3.”

Marshall, which is 8-0 in Conference USA, again didn’t make the Top 25 playoff rankings.

Big 12 leader Kansas State moved up two spots to seventh, hopping over Michigan State, which remained eighth.

“Less about Michigan State, but more

about Kansas State adding to their body of work,” Long said, referring to the Wildcats, who are coming off a 48-14 win over Oklahoma State.

Kansas State plays at TCU on Saturday night, and Oregon is at Utah, which stayed 17th in the playoff rankings after a 19-16 loss at Arizona State.

The Sun Devils made the biggest upward move, five spots to ninth. That is one spot ahead of Notre Dame, which rounded out the top 10 for the second week in a row, and plays at Arizona State on Saturday.

The final playoff rankings will be released Dec. 7, the day after most of the conference championships are decided.

Lobos: Broncos have won 17 championships Continued from Page B-5 became part of the Bowl Championship Series discussion, it was a small school with a knack for winning on the small stage.

“They had a tremendous tradition of I-AA football,” Davie said. “They were putting a lot of people in the stands for a long time at Boise State. We’re coming from a non-tradition, and non-people in the stands.”

The Broncos’ football program dates to its time as a two-year school in the wake of the Great Depression and World War II. It wasn’t until the late ’60s that it became a four-year school and not til 1996 that it moved into NCAA Division I. All the while the Broncos managed to win games behind a loyal fan base that made sellouts and energy part of the norm.

They won the junior college national title in 1958 and were the I-AA champions out of the Big Sky Conference in 1980 while finishing second in 1994.

“They’re in a great city,” Davie said.

“They’ve done a lot of things, facility wise, but they’ve been winning games and putting people in the stands for a long time.

They were never in a drought as far as winning. They’re just late getting to the party at the I-A level.”

The trademark blue turf that gave Boise State a quirky national storyline was installed in 1986.

Along the way, they’ve won 17 conference championships as an NCAA program, landed a pair of BCS bowl bids, been ranked as high as No. 2 in the national polls, posted the highest winning percentage of any Division I program since 2000, and had two undefeated seasons.

Their most memorable moment, however, came when they used the Statue of

Liberty play in overtime to stun heavily favored Oklahoma in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl.

“They’ve seized the opportunities, too,” Davie said. “They have done some magical things. You know, the deceptive plays, the Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl; they’ve done a good job and they’ve kept continuity.”

Only twice in the Broncos’ history have they had a coach finish with a losing record, and neither lasted more than one season.

Compare that to UNM’s history and it’s easy to see Davie’s point. Not since Joe

Morrison went 18-5-1 in three years from 1980-82 has a Lobos head coach finished above .500. Only four times in UNM’s history has it won a conference title — but none since 1964.

Boise is merely adding to its rich history.

The Lobos are trying to erase it.

“I’ll put it to you this way,” Davie said.

“They were never digging out of a hole they way we have been here. Tradition means a lot if you’re going to do what a team like that has done.”

Waldorf: St. Michael’s overcomes SFIS Continued from Page B-5 opportunity to build a 14-4 lead after Selena Chavez’s kill.

All Wendland, the assistant coach and athletic director at Waldorf, told the girls during a timeout what championship teams do.

“Wendland kept on saying to us, ‘Answer them, answer them,’ ” senior setter Keifer Nace said.

“Champions step up right now,” added senior outside hitter Cecelia Barnard, who had a team-high 20 kills.

It was the other senior, Chastenet, that started the comeback with one of her five kills, then Elianna Blum added a tip kill of her own. That sparked a 16-4 run that gave the Lady Wolves a 20-18 lead when Ber-

nard’s tip kill fell in between the Lady Leopards.

It was reminiscent of the closing 5-0 run in Game 1 that turned a 23-20 deficit into an important win early on for Waldorf.

“I think we had it there at the end,” Chastenet said. “I could see the determination in Cecelia’s eyes. Though, it could have gone another one, we would have pushed just as hard.”

Perhaps the crucial point the game — and the match, for that matter — was a lift call on Denise Velasquez on a pass that tied the match at 25. Nace followed with a block that gave the Lady Wolves a 26-25 lead, and the teams traded points until Chastenet’s hit.

“We’d tie it, and they’d get the lead,” said Bill McLaughlin,

Coronado head coach. “We never could seize control back.

It was just an unfortunate time.

I thought it was a good play [Velasquez’s return], but the call went against us and you got to play the next ball.”

Coronado likely will get its chance for revenge on Saturday, as the No. 2 seed should get past any of the other district foes.

And Adams will be there to greet the Lady Leopards at the door — and she won’t have to leave this time.

In other tournament matches: ST. MICHAEL’S 3, SANTA FE INDIAN SCHOOL 0 The season will go on for the Lady Horsemen, but to have them extend into the weekend will take a little magic.

They knocked off the Lady Braves in the 5AAAA opening round 25-11, 25-13, 25-10 in Perez-Shelley Memorial Gymnasium.

The win sends St. Michael’s (5-16) into Thursday’s semifinals against district regular season champion Albuquerque Hope Christian.

Royals, Orioles each win three Gold Gloves, Molina 7th NEW YORK — All those snazzy plays by Alex Gordon, Eric Hosmer and Salvador Perez earned them more than tips of the hat from their Kansas City teammates.

The Royals trio wound up snagging Gold Gloves, too.

Three Baltimore players also were honored by Rawlings on Tuesday for fielding excellence, as was St. Louis catcher Yadier Molina for the seventh year in a row.

The Royals paid tribute to each other throughout a run to the World Series, tipping their caps after fine plays. Kansas City lost in seven games to San Francisco — none of the Giants won Gold Gloves.

Gordon, who began his career as a third baseman before becoming a regular left fielder, won for the fourth straight year. Perez at catcher and Hosmer at first base have two wins apiece.

Perez said he thought Royals outfielder Lorenzo Cain, third baseman Mike Moustakas and shortstop Alcides Escobar could win Gold Gloves in the near future.

Cincinnati and Philadelphia, the top two teams in the majors this year by fielding percentage, didn’t have any winners.

Baltimore center fielder Adam Jones won for the fourth time, Orioles shortstop J.J. Hardy won his third in a row and teammate Nick Markakis won his second in right field.

Markakis has become a free agent since the season ended.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Parents put a lid on this young love Dear Annie: I’ve known Owen for four years, and we are in various classes together. We email regularly and chat all the time, and I consider him my best friend. Our parents are good friends, too.

Recently, Owen and I have become closer than “just friends” and privately expressed our feelings for each other. However, once our parents found out, they promptly shut us down, saying we were “unqualified” and “underage.”

We didn’t even kiss, let alone have sex. My parents have always been protective, and I appreciate that, but this is upsetting to me.

Owen is a great guy. We are both very responsible kids. I don’t have a fantastic relationship with my parents, so I tend not to be that open with them. It’s not comfortable for me. Both my parents and Owen’s seem to have brushed aside the whole thing as if it never occurred. What should I do? — A. Dear A.: It depends on how old you are. If you are not yet 16, your parents are wise to put a lid on this. The reason is, these things can get out of control, even though you are both responsible.

It starts with expressing your feelings, then kissing, and then one of you will undoubtedly want the relationship to progress to the next level. As teenagers, your emotions tend to get ahead of your brain. (This can happen even after you are 16, but that is a more acceptable age to begin dating.)

Your feelings for Owen are perfectly normal, but please don’t do too much too soon. And it would be unwise to hide your activities from your parents. If you don’t think you can talk to them about this, confide in an older sibling, an aunt or uncle, or a grandparent, favorite teacher or family friend. It will help. Promise.

Dear Annie: For the past few years, I have bumped into a female acquaintance at our large workplace about twice a month.

She always seemed friendly and sometimes even a little flirty. She always had a ring on her left ring finger, so I assumed she was spoken for.

I saw her again this week, and

she excitedly told me she is getting married. I congratulated her and mentioned that she must have known this guy a long time. She told me “it’s been almost a year.”

I asked her about the ring she always wore on her left hand, and she said, “That was my mother’s ring.”

It turns out that this smart, beautiful lady was available for much of the time I’ve known her. I think we could have made a wonderful couple. I always thought that a woman wearing any type of ring on her ring finger was clearly indicating that she was not available. But after talking with other women friends, I’ve found out that this isn’t always the case. What are your feelings on the matter? — Disappointed Dear Disappointed: These days, women wear rings everywhere. But you are right that those who wear them on their ring finger give the impression that they are attached. There is nothing wrong with saying, “Congratulations! When is the wedding?” If she’s not engaged, she will say so.

And if she is, no harm, no foul.

Dear Annie: I think it’s wonderful that “Sugar Mama” has planned for her retirement. My husband and I have some simple advice: “Spend your children’s inheritance.” If the kids aren’t expecting money, they will stand on their own two feet. If you decide (as my mom did) to help the grandchildren, it is a delightful surprise, and you reap the thanks while you can enjoy it.

“Sugar” should go on that cruise and be generous with her friend. If her daughter doesn’t like it, she will have to live with her own disappointment while Mom is having a wonderful life, well earned — West Virginia Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

The proof is in this pudding

By Bonnie S. Benwick The Washington Post

The rice pudding that Zeynel Uzun serves at Kazan, his 34-year-old Turkish restaurant in McLean, Va., is made the same way he learned to prepare it more than four decades ago, as a young cook in Istanbul’s Topkapi Palace. Why mess with success?

Brown rice flour — not grains of rice — is used in his creamy, smooth kazandibi (“bottom of the pot”), so named because of its sugar-scorching technique.

Turkish Rice Pudding.

RENEE COMET/ FOR THE WASHINGTON POST

TURKISH RICE PUDDING (KAZANDIBI) Makes 6 to 8 servings 1. Use 1 tablespoon unsalted butter to grease a 9- by 12-inch metal pan that can handle direct stovetop heat. Sprinkle evenly with ¼ cup sugar and 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour; tilt to coat all over.

Refrigerate while you make the pudding.

2. Combine 2 cups whole milk, 2 cups half-and-half and ¾ cup sugar in a large saucepan, then reserve 1 cup of the milk mixture. Bring the remaining saucepan mixture to a foamy boil over medium-high heat.

3. Meanwhile, whisk together ¼ cup brown rice flour, ¼ cup all-purpose flour and ¼ cup cornstarch in a mixing bowl. Stir in the reserved cup of the milk mixture, along with the yolk of 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, to form a smooth slurry.

4. Whisk the slurry into the boiling milk mixture, which will soon thicken. Keep whisking; reduce the heat to medium-low, cooking until the consistency is that of a soft, lump-free pudding. Turn off the heat.

5. Pour about half the pudding into the chilled, coated pan. Place half the pan over one burner on medium-high heat to begin caramelizing the sugar coating on the bottom. The pudding layer will quickly bubble; use a spatula to tamp it down while the caramelization occurs. As soon as you see the bottom is browned (through momentary gaps in the pudding), turn and repeat on the other side of the pan. Do not let lumps form in the pudding. Turn off the heat.

6. Pour the pudding into the pan, smoothing it. Refrigerate, uncovered, for 1 day. Cut into portions; invert on the plates so the caramelized side is on top. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon. Serve chilled.

t’s the time of the season for baking.

We are inundated with gingerbread cookies and fruitcakes, pumpkin spice muffins and biscochitos, all of which pile up like Christmas gifts on our dining room tables, beckoning us with their aromas and shiny decorations.

But pie is the star of the show — artfully decorated, heartwarmingly traditional, suggestively warm, and surprisingly complicated to make really well.

Pie is an American icon, a symbol of all that is wholesome and right with our classic homespun values. It is a prominent feature in fairy tales, where it is often poisoned, magical or full of live blackbirds.

It is a running joke in movies about band camp. But pie, as a concept, also dates back to the days of swords and sandals as the original prepared food.

The Greeks are thought to be the inventors of pastry, which was simply a combination of flour and water molded into a shell to hold various fillings. In medieval England, pie shells were called “coffyns,” a pun that brings to mind one or two horrifying images and an interesting philosophical question about burial rites. In medieval Europe, the pie crust was sometimes only for cooking and not intended for consumption, a fact that will surely not surprise anyone who has tried to choke down sub-par pie.

Here in Santa Fe, pie has its own event, Holiday Pie Mania, a pie-stravaganza now in its third year, during which local chefs perform spirited demos of pie-baking while handing out liberal samples to sugar and coffee-fueled guests. The pies are then auctioned off to frantic bidders who can either take them home that day or pick up fresh ones for the holidays later.

This year, Holiday Pie Mania will have at least 13 participating bakers, including Dennis Adkins from Dulce and Dionne Christian from Revolution Bakery, both of whom do an abundance of business

Event and SAVE UP TO 58%!

Christian has the added challenge of making her pie crusts both gluten-free and light and fluffy.

Christian also addresses the added difficulties of making her pie crusts glutenfree, which requires a lot of creativity when it comes to the flour mix. She has several different blends for different kinds of pies, but for her kolokithopita, she’ll use one made of brown rice, sorghum and arrowroot starch. “It’s been coming out really flaky for me,” she explains.

“Pie” is a pretty broad term, encompassing the whole gamut of filled pastries, both sweet and savory, including tarts, empanadas, Cornish pasties and quiches.

Adkins isn’t sure which pie he’ll be featuring, but Dulce has a few tantalizing options on display in the case, including pecan, pumpkin and “crimson,” a tart blend of cranberry, strawberry and orange. Christian is preparing a savory pie for Holiday Pie Mania, a gluten-free, autumn-themed quiche called kolokithopita with a pumpkin and cheese filling. Traditionally it is made with phyllo dough, but Christian admits that she hasn’t yet perfected gluten-free phyllo.

Holiday Pie Mania’s pie-fest goes down Saturday, Nov. 15 at Builder’s Source Appliance Gallery, 1608 Pacheco St. While that may seem like an unlikely spot for holiday festivities, remember, this is a pie event, and they need all the ovens they can get. All proceeds go to The Food Depot, Northern New Mexico’s food bank, so you can feel good about shoveling fork after fork of gooey, flaky pastry into what you can shamelessly refer to for those three hours as your “pie-hole.”

in pies, especially around the holidays, because while many of us feel perfectly confident with our ability to make chocolate chip cookies from scratch, pie is a daunting proposition for inexperienced bakers. Brownies are forgiving, mistakes in cakes can be covered up with several coats of thick frosting, but with pie, the most challenging part of it goes on the outside. Pie crust has undone many an otherwise proficient baker. It has a way of sagging, burning, cracking, staying wet on the bottom, breaking into tragically unattractive chunks, or all of the above at once.

Pie crust must be combined with a delicate touch, the butter cut into the flour to make pea-sized balls without mashing it into a glutinous lump. It then has to be refrigerated and rolled out without overworking the dough, which will stick to every available surface at the first opportunity, and then somehow, miraculously, lifted up and placed in a pie pan and then topped with a decorative lattice of leaves or whatever and baked without everything breaking into a crumbly mess and falling to the bottom of your oven.

Some of us, despite being professional food journalists, find this challenging.

Adkins and Christian have the same advice for would-be home pie bakers.

“I think probably the most important thing is keep everything cold, keep everything very cold,” says Adkins, owner-baker at Dulce Bakery, the magic sweetness factory on Cordova Road.

Dulce regularly churns out mounds of moist cupcakes, giant blueberry muffins, scones, etc., and also does a brisk business in pies.

Christian, who has the added challenge of making her pie crusts both gluten-free and light and fluffy, agrees.

“You have to use really, really cold butter, and I even keep my flour cold. If you keep everything cold, you’re going to come out with a really great pie crust,” she explains. “A lot of people [keep] their butter out, their heavy cream out — for me it’s never worked.”

Last glimpse of Che Guevara

NAVIGATOR

Smartphone apps for your packing list

Cuban revolutionary remembered at the Bolivian village where he was executed

By Kenichi Yoshida The Yomiuri Shimbun

LA HIGUERA, Bolivia seven-hour drive from Santa Cruz — a city in eastern Bolivia — on a dusty mountain road took me to La Higuera, a village 6,500 feet above sea level.

About a dozen shanties built along the road were the homes of its 80 or so inhabitants.

It was here 47 years ago that Ernesto “Che” Guevara, a guerrilla revolutionary committed to the goal of liberating Latin America, was captured by the government army and executed.

After strolling through a symphony of birdsong to the center of the village, I found a bust of Guevara on a pedestal.

His strong eyes seemed to show determination.

Guevara was born to a wealthy family in Argentina. After meeting former Cuban President Fidel Castro in Mexico, he went to Cuba and helped lead the guerrilla war there.

On the heels of the success of the Cuban Revolution in 1959, he was appointed the president of the National Bank and the minister of industry. He left Cuba in 1965 for Congo and sneaked into Bolivia after leaving Congo.

Guevara was executed by a firing squad. His body, which the military had secretly buried, was

A

discovered in 1997.

The school where he was executed has been transformed into a memorial hall that residents take turns managing.

The list of names signed in the guestbook shows that tourists from all over the world have visited the village, walking in Guevara’s footsteps.

“The village residents, who believed the government when it called the guerrillas ‘murderers,’ did not try to help Guevara when he was captured. And they all regretted it when they learned afterward that he had dedicated his life to the liberation of Bolivia,” said Sabina Chuki, a 38-year-old farmer.

Chuki said he has heard his elders repeat words of remorse countless times since his childhood. Guevara’s popularity still continues in the village, which is located in a poor area where many live on less than a dollar a day.

Juanita Castro, the younger sister of former Cuban President Fidel Castro, describes Guevara as “an inhuman, cold fish” in her memoir Fidel y Raul, mis hermanos (Fidel and Raul, my brothers).

However, Julia Cortez, a 66-year-old housewife who came into contact with Guevara just before he was shot, remembers him differently. “He was a humble, polite person,” she said.

By Christopher Elliott Special to The Washington Post

Cortez, who was 19 at the time, had been working at the school where Guevara was executed.

On Oct. 9, 1967, just before he was killed, she brought him some peanut soup that her mother had made.

He must have been famished, Cortez recalls, as he took the bowl with both of his hands — which were tied together — and drank the soup down in one gulp.

He told her, “This soup is

worth more than gold. Thank you. Thank you so much.”

As Cortez left the classroom with the empty bowl, Guevara pushed open the door with his elbow and smiled at her as she looked back.

“He had gentle eyes for somebody who was prepared to die,” she remembers. “His last smile is still engraved in my mind.” Not long after that, the sound of gunfire echoed through the village.

Bespoke Inn: A bicycle oasis in Arizona desert

By Elaine Glusac The New York Times

In the affluent and resort-filled Phoenix suburb of Scottsdale, Kate Hennen and Rob Taynton modeled their four-room B&B, Bespoke Inn, Café & Bicycles, on bicycle-centric inns where they’d stayed in Europe. Rooms come with complimentary use of British-made Pashley bikes from the on-site bike shop where Taynton customizes and rents road bikes, and the parking area includes bike racks. The relaxed compound, within walking distance of shop-lined Main Street, includes plenty of outdoor lounge space with Adirondack chairs in the central courtyard, shaded by towering olive trees and shared by the popular new Italian restaurant Virtù Honest Craft.

Rates Starting at $259 through April; $159 from May through September.

Location Bespoke Inn, opened last year, resides in a quiet residential area of midcentury-modern apartment buildings and small hotels but is less than a 5-minute walk to the restaurants and galleries of western-themed, pedestrian-friendly downtown Scottsdale. The innkeepers will direct bicyclists to several easy-to-access bike paths nearby, including the Arizona Canal Trail.

The room Three of the standard rooms (the fourth is a suite) are named for the owners’ relatives; mine, the Leo & Isabelle, bears the names of Hennen’s paternal grandparents. A grand sleigh bed was in the center

of the spacious room, which featured a 10-foot ceiling and a chandelier over a rustic wooden writing table. Bedrooms have glass doors that open onto mini-patios, which offer outdoor space more private than the central courtyard out the front door.

Dining Rates include a generous continental breakfast buffet, provided by the innkeepers and served in the courtyard, that included homemade granola and pastries.

At 10 a.m. daily, the neighboring restaurant, Virtù Honest Craft, offers brunch to late risers that is included in the rate (tips are not included). The restaurant is also open for dinner, serving seasonal Italian fare.

Amenities As at a resort, although scaled down, amenities abound. In addition to the bicycles, there’s a

rooftop terrace, an infinity lap pool and a small fitness studio with a ballet barre and workout videos along with cardio machines.

Thoughtful touches include a plate of cookies left in the hallway for guests returning after dinner and round-the-clock tea and coffee offered in the fitness room.

Bottom line In contrast to the glitzy, grand resorts for which Scottsdale is well known, Bespoke offers a quirky, intimate hideaway in a pedestrian-friendly district. Individually designed rooms, generous amenities and proximity to one of the city’s most popular restaurants make the case for staying in.

If you don’t think technology can improve your trip, meet Judy Williams. When she and her husband recently checked into the Radisson Blu Hotel in Zurich, a clerk asked them to sign the dotted line on a room rate hundreds of dollars higher than their online confirmation.

“It was not a budget stay,” says Williams, a lawyer from Billings, Mont.

But it became more of one after her husband fired up the Booking.com app he’d used to purchase their room on his smartphone.

“As soon as we showed him the rate, he honored it,” Williams says.

Technology may create its fair share of challenges for travelers — indeed, it may have led to Williams’s rate confusion in the first place — but it can also remedy them.

The solutions go beyond verifying a hotel rate. The latest apps can protect you from a frivolous car-rental damage claim or connect you with your friends without racking up high roaming charges. If you’ve asked Santa for a smartphone, you might pack this handy list of programs to install after he’s granted your holiday wishes. (Unless otherwise specified, all apps listed are for iOS and Android and free for a basic version.)

But first things first. The latest version of Booking.com is among the most feature-rich booking programs. Users can select hotels by location, make a secure booking and view the confirmed rate so they never need to renegotiate their hotel price.

Frivolous damage claims are one of the most vexing problems for car-rental customers. Often, the evidence presented by the firm of a ding or dent is less than convincing. Enter Record360 (iPhone only), which allows rental-car customers to note any preexisting damage to their vehicles. If everyone used this app, I’d be out of a job.

The program, originally intended for use at carrental locations, will be available as a consumer app this fall. Shane Skinner, one of Record360’s developers, is a former car-rental employee who wanted a way to offer both the renter and the company “an objective, time-stamped view of property at time of exchange,” he says. “This protects both parties from damage-related expenses and fees.” But you could use the program for other types of rentals, including vacation homes, boats or ski equipment.

Another pain point for travelers is traffic that eats away precious vacation time. There’s a new app for that, courtesy of MapQuest, called Commute. As the name implies, it’s aimed at users who have to make the same trip every day. But if you’re headed to Los Angeles or Honolulu, where visitors can easily get stuck in hours of bumper-to-bumper traffic, Commute can help.

Just input basic information about your destination and expected departure time, and the app will start sending you traffic data 15 minutes before you leave.

Testing Commute proved to be a challenge for me, because my home address is about 900 miles from my place of work. But if you have only a short distance to travel through a densely populated area, you can use Commute to steer clear of congestion.

Several app developers have come up with a novel way around often bandwidth-hungry map applications. Maps.me ($4.99) allows users to download maps of the cities they’re visiting and view them offline. The offline maps work with your smartphone’s GPS, so you can use them without having to run up a huge wireless bill. The same is true of Stay.com, which integrates offline maps with curated guides by local experts from 150 cities.

Another source of travel-related conflict and confusion is money. That’s particularly true when you’re dealing with a foreign currency. The latest version of Travel Money Tracker ($1.99, iPhone only) helps travelers prevent currency mix-ups. It instantly converts a country’s native currency to yours, so you know exactly how much that espresso in Milan costs in dollars. One neat feature is the ability to set up an alert that tells you when you’re overspending, which can sometimes be a problem when you’re on vacation. The only catch, of course, is that you have to remember to record all your purchases.

To quell anxiety about major disruptions, there’s Travel Safe ($1.29), a clever program that helps users dial emergency numbers when they’re overseas. “It’s good for peace of mind,” says Helene Sotsky, the operations manager for a travel agency in Needham, Mass. Travel Safe even shares your GPS location with emergency services: Even when you can’t speak the language, they’ll know where you are.

When it comes to phones, perhaps the most irritating travel problem is connectivity. One of my favorite Wi-Fi networks is Boingo (subscription required).

This fall, it’s deploying a new network that it says reimagines public Wi-Fi based on usage profiles. It’s one of several connectivity apps bringing us closer to a day when you don’t have to rely on expensive cellular networks to phone home.

If you want to upgrade messaging during your travels, try a new app called Glide. It allows you to instantly send video-text messages to individuals or groups. It’s optimized for low-bandwidth scenarios, so there’s no need to worry about getting a ridiculous roaming bill at the end of your trip. Glide is now being used by tour guides who want to reach large groups, according to its developer.

Taken together, these apps remedy some of the most common travel problems. But not all of them.

Some things, no smartphone can fix. Which means I get to keep my job — for now.
