Oilman locked in battle for ‘soul’ of state GOP Former party chairman, longtime political donor feuding with Gov. Martinez’s right-hand man

Town, home of facility for immigrant families, in middle of policy debate The Washington Post

ARTESIA — Leticia Zamarripa, a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman who was one of our guides on a media tour of a detention center where more than 500 Central American mothers and children are being held, began our walk-through this way: “I feel like I’m in Disneyland.”

Some of the moms are kids themselves, and a teenager in a ponytail who passed by wasn’t much bigger than her 6- or 7-year-old son, whose hand she was clutching.

do likewise. Oil and gas became the largest single source of Martinez’s campaign donations that year.

Oil and gas is again at the forefront of Martinez’s re-election campaign, contributing nearly half a million dollars to her war chest through June. But Yates hasn’t given a nickel.

What changed between now and then?

Republicans hope to end a political dynasty in New Mexico this fall.

They have not controlled the state House of Representatives since 1954, the year that Brown v. Topeka Board of Education desegregated public schools and Ernest Hemingway received the Nobel Prize for literature.

The GOP says this could be its breakthrough year based on a couple of factors.

It’s a midterm election, and Democrats could be weaker overall than in 2012, when President Barack Obama headed the national ticket and helped increase turnout for candidates down the ballot.

In addition, Republican Gov. Susana Martinez is running for re-election this fall. She is leading by several points in most polls and has an advantage of more than $3 million in campaign funding over Democratic challenger Gary King. Republican legislative candidates are optimistic that Martinez’s coattails will be long enough to help flip the House of Representatives.

For their part, Democrats say they can pick up a handful of seats that were lost in close races two years ago.

arvey Yates Jr. is a wealthy oilman and looks the part — a tall, lean, white-haired son of the Southern New Mexico plains. And like many of his counterparts in the industry, he is unabashedly conservative, unapologetically Republican.

He’s contributed hundreds of

thousands of dollars to the GOP cause. And four years ago, he was state party chairman, presiding over the party during an election when a little-known district attorney from Las Cruces named Susana Martinez seemingly came out of nowhere and won the Republican primary and later the general election.

NATION&WORLD Nobel Prize in literature: A possible surprise The Associated Press

Ships prepare to resume search for Flight MH370 in Indian Ocean Former Haitian dictator Jean-Claude Duvalier, known as ‘Baby Doc,’ attends a hearing on Feb. 28, 2013, as Haitian authorities charged him with human rights abuses.

Duvalier died Saturday of a heart attack. ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE PHOTO

‘President for life’ exiled from Haiti for 25 years Duvalier’s reign was known for corruption, brutality PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti ean-Claude Duvalier, who presided over what was widely acknowledged as a corrupt and brutal regime as the self-proclaimed “president for life” of Haiti until a popular uprising sent him into a 25-year exile, has died. He was 63.

Duvalier died Saturday from a heart attack at the home of a friend in Port-auPrince where he had been staying, said his lawyer, Reynold Georges, and several officials in the impoverished nation.

The former leader, known as “Baby Doc,” made a surprise return to Haiti in 2011, allowing victims of his regime to pursue legal claims against him in Haitian courts and prompting some old allies to rally around him. Neither side gained much traction, however, and a frail Duvalier spent his final years quietly in the leafy hills above the Haitian capital.

Haitian President Michel Martelly expressed his condolences to the former dictator’s family, making no mention of the widespread human rights abuses that occurred under Duvalier and his more notorious predecessor and father, Francois “Papa Doc” Duvalier.

“On behalf of the entire government and people of Haiti, I take this sad occasion to extend my sincere sympathies to his family, his relatives and his supporters across the country,” Martelly said.

The elder Duvalier was a medical doctorturned-dictator who promoted “Noirisme,” a movement that sought to highlight Haiti’s African roots over its European ones while uniting the black majority against the mulatto elite in a country divided by class and color.

“Papa Doc” tortured and killed political opponents, relying on a dreaded civilian militia known as the Tonton Macoutes.

In 1971, Francois Duvalier suddenly died of an illness after naming his son to succeed him. At 19, Jean-Claude Duvalier became the world’s youngest president.

Jean-Claude Duvalier ruled for 15 years, retaining the Tonton Macoutes and the bru-

tality of his father’s regime, though to a lesser extent. The son’s administration was seen as less violent and repressive than that of the father, though it perhaps was more corrupt.

Wisps of press freedom and personal criticism, something never tolerated under the elder Duvalier, emerged sporadically during the reign of “Baby Doc” because of international pressure. Still, human rights groups documented abuses and political persecution. A trio of prisons known as the “Triangle of Death,” which included the much-feared Fort Dimanche for long-term inmates, symbolized the brutality of his regime.

Since his return from exile, victims of the regime have testified in a criminal investigation of human rights abuses during his reign but the case has moved fitfully and there had been few signs of progress. His death brings an end to that effort without giving Haiti a chance to reconcile with that past, said Amy Wilentz, author of The Rainy Season: Haiti Since Duvalier and other works about the country.

“What this means is that there will never be a trial against him and there won’t be a chance for the Haitian people to have justice and to purge from its soul the true horrors of the Duvalier era,” Wilentz said. “It’s an end but there is no closure that comes with it.”

On Jan. 16, 2011, Duvalier made his surprise return. He said he wanted to help in the reconstruction of Haiti, whose capital and outlying cities were heavily damaged by a magnitude-7.0 earthquake the year before. Many suspected he came back in an effort to reclaim money he had allegedly stashed. Others said he merely wanted to die in his homeland.

Despite the occasional stay in the hospital, Duvalier seemed to enjoy his new life back home and was free to roam the capital.

He was spotted attending government ceremonies and dining with friends in several high-end restaurants. In 2013 he began renovating an old house that Roy said had been destroyed in the wake of his 1986 ouster.

Duvalier and his wife, Michele, had two children, son Francois Nicolas “Nico” and daughter Anya.

SYDNEY — After a four-month hiatus, the hunt for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 is about to resume in a desolate stretch of the Indian Ocean, with searchers lowering new equipment deep beneath the waves in a bid to finally solve one of the world’s most perplexing aviation mysteries.

The GO Phoenix, the first of three ships that will spend up to a year hunting for the wreckage far off Australia’s west coast, is expected to arrive in the search zone Sunday, though weather could delay its progress. Crews will use sonar, video cameras and jet fuel sensors to scour the water for any trace of the Boeing 777, which disappeared March 8 during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board.

The search has been on hold for months so crews could map the seabed in the search zone, about 1,100 miles west of Australia. The 23,000-square mile search area lies along what is known as the “seventh arc” — a stretch of ocean where investigators believe the aircraft ran out of fuel and crashed, based largely on an analysis of transmissions between the plane and a satellite.

North Korean official visits South for face-to-face talks SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea’s presumptive No. 2 and other members of Pyongyang’s inner circle met with South Korean officials Saturday in the rivals’ highest level face-to-face talks in five years, a possible indication that both sides are interested in pursuing better ties after months of animosity.

There appeared to be no major breakthrough from the meeting that came as the North’s delegation made a surprise visit to the close of the Asian Games in the South Korean port city of Incheon. But the countries agreed to hold another round of talks between the end of October and the beginning of November, according to a South Korean statement. The specific topics of Saturday’s discussions weren’t immediately known.

Still, just the fact that North Koreans at the highest levels visited the South was significant, allowing valuable contact between confidants of North Korea’s authoritarian leader and senior South Korean officials after a year that has seen a steady stream of insults between the divided neighbors and an unusual number of North Korean missile and rocket test firings.

General Motors recalls 60K Cadillac, Pontiac sedans DETROIT — General Motors is recalling more than 60,000 vehicles in North America.

The biggest recall outlined by GM on Saturday affects 46,873 vehicles. The recalls are Pontiac G8s from the 2008 through the 2009 model years and 2011-13 model Chevrolet Caprice PPV left-hand-drive sedans imported from Australia. GM says the ignition switch key may shift from the “run” position when touched by the driver’s knee. The company is aware of one crash related to the problem.

Another recall covers over 10,005 Cadillac CTS-V sedans from the 2004-07 model years and 2006-07 model Cadillac STS-Vs. On some vehicles, the fuel pump module electrical terminal may overheat. GM says it knows of no crashes or injuries related to the problem.

Hong Kong protesters stage massive rally despite warnings HONG KONG — Bolstered by a massive rally overnight, Hong Kong’s pro-democracy activists were defiant on the eighth day of protests Sunday in the face of attacks by opponents and government warnings to clear the business district streets they have occupied to press their demand for reforms.

“Democracy now! Democracy in Hong Kong!” thousands chanted as speakers from the movement seeking wider political reforms for this former British colony urged them to persist in their campaign.

The night passed peacefully despite fears that police would act to clear out the protesters. The city’s top leader, Chief Secretary Leung Chun-ying, appeared on television Saturday evening to once again urge everyone to go home, saying things needed to get back to normal by Monday.

The protests are demanding Leung’s resignation, but he has refused. Standoffs between the protesters and their antagonists grew ugly Saturday, as the two sides traded insults and at times taunted police.

JEAN-CLAUDE DUVALIER, 1951-2014

By Malin Rising

STOCKHOLM — It’s soon time for the highbrow culture event of the year: the Nobel Prize in literature. But don’t worry if you are left scratching your head when the winner is announced.

While the Swedish Academy sometimes picks well-known authors long lauded by critics, just as frequently it surprises the world with unknowns plucked from obscurity. The secretive academy drops no hints on who they are considering but Permanent Secretary Peter Englund said this year’s long-list started with 210 nominees, including 36 first-timers.

The academy is expected to announce the winner on Thursday, but has not yet confirmed the date.

Potential surprises: Even literary critics were taken aback by announcements of winners such as Austria’s Elfriede Jelinek in 2004, who was largely unknown outside the German-speaking world at the time, French writer JeanMarie Gustave Le Clezio in 2008 and Chinese novelist Mo Yan in 2012.

Part of the reason for this is that the academy aims to include literature from all the world’s corners in their considerations, even those not widely translated into English. They also seek to award poets, playwrights and other types of writers. Who could surprise this year? Check out Norwegian playwright Jon Fosse, Belarusian investigative journalist and author Svetlana Alexievich or Croatian novelist and essayist Dubravka Ugresic. Other writers that may have caught the attention of the academy are Finnish author Sofi Oksanen, Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Jamaica Kincaid of Antigua, according to Maria Schottenius, a critic at Swedish daily Dagens Nyheter.

Established authors: The academy works off of a constantly evolving list of candidates, and sometimes a big name resurfaces again and again.

While some may have been overlooked early in their careers, widely known authors such as Britain’s Doris Lessing, Peru’s Mario Vargas Llosa and Canada’s Alice Munro eventually did walk off with the coveted prize.

Among the frequently mentioned candidates who are still waiting are Czech author Milan Kundera, Albanian writer Ismail Kadare, Algerian novelist Assia Djebar and South Korean poet Ko Un. Swedish literature critics have also suggested Israeli writers Amos Oz and David Grossman, as well as Americans Richard Ford and Philip Roth.

Bettors’ favorites: Kenyan writer Ngugi wa Thiong’o and Japanese author Haruki Murakami frequently top bettors’ lists ahead of the announcement. While Thiong’o may indeed be a strong candidate, Murakami’s position in the rankings is probably more a reflection of the fact that he is widely read, says Elise Karlsson, a critic at Swedish daily Svenska Dagbladet.

threatens to attract Sunni backlash

By Hamza Hendawi The Associated Press

SANAA, Yemen — The capital of Yemen, the Arab world’s poorest and perhaps most chronically unstable nation, has new masters.

Anti-American Shiite rebels man checkpoints and roam the streets in pickups mounted with anti-aircraft guns. The fighters control almost all state buildings, from the airport and the central bank to the Defense Ministry.

Only a few police officers and soldiers are left on the streets. Rebel fighters have plastered the city with fliers proclaiming their slogan — “Death to America, death to Israel, a curse on the Jews and victory to Islam” — a variation of a popular Iranian slogan often chanted by Shiite militants in Iraq and supporters of Lebanon’s Hezbollah.

While the world has been focused on the fight against Islamic State militants in Syria and Iraq, Yemen — located at the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula — has seen its own sudden, seismic upheaval when Shiite rebels known as the Houthis overran Sanaa two weeks ago.

Now the Houthis, who many believe are backed by Shiite-led Iran, are poised to become Yemen’s version of the Shiite Hezbollah in Lebanon — top powerbrokers dominating the government and running a virtual statewithin-a-state.

Their takeover of the

capital also threatens to bring a violent backlash from hard-line Sunnis, creating a sectarian battle that would boost al-Qaida’s branch in Yemen, which the United States has been battling for years in a drone campaign and in coordination with the Yemeni military. The rallying cry of fighting against Shiite power could turn Yemen into a magnet for Sunni jihadis from around the region, like Syria and Iraq.

Last week, an al-Qaida suicide bomber rammed an explosiveladen car into a hospital used by the Houthis in Maarib province, killing one person. The group, known as al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, vowed to fight the rebels and called on other Sunnis to support it.

“You will see your bodies scattered and your heads flying,” al-Qaida said in a statement, addressing the Houthis.

The U.S.-backed president, Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, is largely helpless, struggling to form a new government to meet the Houthis’ demands. Neighboring Saudi Arabia is worried over a potential pro-Iranian outpost on its border.

In an interview with The Associated Press, Jamal Benomar, the U.N. special envoy who has been mediating among the government, the Houthis and other factions, warned that “this takeover of Sanaa by the Houthis will widely reverberate in Yemen and the region.”

“Yemen will now be seen as linked to other situations in the region, with regional and international involvement,” he said.

The Houthis, who call themselves Ansar Allah, Arabic for “Supporters of God,” are followers of the Zaydi faith, a branch of Shia Islam that is almost exclusively found in Yemen

and makes up about 30 percent of the country’s population.

Zaydi religious leaders ruled much of northern Yemen for centuries — and the Houthis, backers of the Houthi family, a clan that claims descent from the Prophet Muhammad, have sought to revive the Zaydi identity.

The rebels, led by 33-year-old Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, fought a series of civil wars since the mid-2000s from their stronghold of Saada north of Sanaa. In 2011, they took complete control of Saada province.

But their advances this year have been startling. They swept south, defeating Sunni tribesmen loyal to the conservative Sunni Islah party, and in July captured Amran province, which borders the capital. They then overran the capital itself on Sept. 21 as the military largely collapsed.

House: Minimum wage an issue Continued from Page A-1 election with a 37-33 advantage in the House. Each party is targeting the same dozen races that will determine who’s in power for the next two years.

New Mexico’s state senators are not on the ballot this year.

All 42 of them will stand for reelection in 2016, meaning Democrats will continue to control the Senate 25-17.

Here is a look at the pivotal matchups in the House:

District 50, parts of Santa Fe, Torrance, Valencia and Bernalillo counties Republican Vickie Perea, the incumbent by appointment, may be the underdog in this race.

Martinez last year chose Perea to fill the seat after freshman Democratic Rep. Stephen Easley died at age 60. Democrats had long held the seat.

Perea, of Belen, is being challenged by Democrat Matthew McQueen of Galisteo.

McQueen, an attorney making his first try for public office, is building his campaign around jobs and education.

He has criticized Perea for opposing a constitutional amendment to raise the statewide minimum wage. The proposal died in the House of Representatives after receiving 33 “yes” votes and 29 against.

It needed 36 votes to make the ballot.

Perea was part of a bloc of Republicans who opposed the amendment. She said in an interview that increasing the minimum wage is something she would consider, but not as part of the state constitution.

McQueen called her position “a cop-out.”

Under the Democrats’ plan, the minimum wage would have gone from $7.50 an hour to about $8.30 an hour. In addition, the amendment would have provided for yearly raises in the minimum wage of up to 4 percent, based on the national Consumer Price Index.

McQueen said he favors an even more aggressive approach, a $10.10 minimum hourly wage with escalators built in.

Perea, 68, worked for about 30 years as an Albuquerque city employee, and she served one term as an Albuquerque city councilor. She has been a quiet presence in the House. Like many freshmen, she rarely spoke during floor debates.

Perea sponsored bills to increase penalties for chronic drunken drivers and for people who entice children into cars or rooms for purposes of exploiting them. Both won approval in the House but died in the Senate.

McQueen, 47, says he supports the initiative to increase funding

for early childhood education by tapping the state’s $14 billion land grant endowment. Most Republicans have opposed the idea. Perea said she would evaluate “all options,” but would look first at the regular state budget.

Rep. Brian Egolf, D-Santa Fe, said McQueen’s election is a key to Democrats maintaining control of the House. McQueen agreed, saying Democrats will be in for a long election night if Perea holds on.

“This is a seat we should win,” McQueen said.

District 23, Bernalillo and Sandoval counties One of the nastiest races pits freshman Republican Rep. Paul Pacheco against Democrat Catherine Begaye.

Pacheco, a retired Albuquerque police officer, won election by less than 1 percentage point in 2012. Democrats consider him beatable.

For the last two years, Pacheco has carried a high-profile bill for the governor. It would repeal the 2003 law that enables someone without proof of immigration status to obtain a New Mexico driver’s license. Pacheco’s proposal failed each time.

He says he counts his term as a success because of “significant strides in the realms of jobs and the economy, education funding, public safety and transparency.”

Begaye also has focused on Pacheco’s biography, especially his filing in 2005 for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

Pacheco and his wife, Tami, listed liabilities of $411,796 and a combined yearly income of just under $40,000, according to their bankruptcy court filing.

More than a third of what the Pachecos owed was debt on 18 credit cards, court records show.

Pacheco also owed more than $10,000 to three banks for “checking account fees,” apparently overdrafts. Another of his debts was $4,862 in federal taxes, his bankruptcy petition stated.

Among his assets, Pacheco listed his public pension with a value at $130,000 and another retirement fund worth $60,000.

He declined requests for an interview but provided a lengthy statement about his accomplishments, such as being named Albuquerque’s detective of the year in 2003. He also used his statement to explain what he said was the reason for his bankruptcy.

“In 2003 I partnered with a group to bring an indoor soccer league to New Mexico, a venue that I believed would enrich the community. After every attempt to keep the lights on and save our business, like countless small-business owners throughout the state, we were sadly forced to close the doors and

eventually declare bankruptcy,” Pacheco stated.

Pacheco also criticized Begaye, saying she has no “meaningful accomplishments of her own, except of course for her numerous run-ins with law enforcement for her nearly one dozen warrants, including warrants issued for her arrest.”

She issued a statement of her own about her trouble, saying it was tied to her work as a lawyer for children in abuse and neglect cases.

“Fighting for children doesn’t pay well. When one credit card debt became impossible to pay, a judgment was sought. Since that time, the debt has been paid – contrary to the lie in the mailer [by Pacheco’s camp].”

One plank in her campaign is to raise the statewide minimum wage to $10.10 an hour, something she said would help families across New Mexico.

District 36, Doña Ana County Democratic Rep. Phillip Archuleta missed the 30-day legislative session this year with illnesses that led to the amputation of his right leg. Now back on the campaign trail, Archuleta is facing Republican Andy Nuñez, who formerly represented the district as a member of two other political parties.

Nuñez’s critics call him an opportunist. He was a Democrat until 2011, when he switched to “declined to state,” New Mexico’s version of independent.

After Archuleta defeated him in the 2012 election, Nuñez changed parties again. He became a Republican, something he had promised not to do.

“Yeah, I probably said that. But sometimes you say something in the heat of the moment,” Nuñez said in an interview. “I haven’t changed. It’s the Legislature that has gotten too liberal.”

Nuñez is the mayor of Hatch, a village famous for its green chile. He said he could juggle legislative duties in Santa Fe and his responsibilities as mayor.

He was Hatch’s mayor pro tem when he served in the House.

Nuñez was a regular presence at the Capitol even after losing his seat. He worked as a lobbyist for irrigation districts.

In his last two years in the House, Nuñez sponsored bills to repeal the driver’s license law.

On that issue, Martinez counted Nuñez as one of her strongest allies in the House. But Martinez opposed him anyway in the 2012 election. She favored the Republican candidate over then-independent Nuñez.

Archuleta, of Las Cruces, supports keeping the driver’s license law. As a freshman legislator, he led the way in blocking the repeal bill in the labor committee.

Democratic state Rep. Stephanie Garcia Richard, rear, and Republican challenger Geoff Rodgers, both from Los Alamos, participate in a debate hosted last month by the Santa Fe Area Homebuilders Association. The race is likely to get rough. LUIS SÁNCHEZ SATURNO/THE NEW MEXICAN

“It’s a public-safety issue,” Archuleta said. “People are going to drive to work. It’s better for them to be tested and to know the rules.”

One group of people helped by the immigrant licensing law is important to his district’s economy. The lobbyist for the state’s chile industry said all the harvesters are Mexican nationals with an average age of about 60.

As a House member, Archuleta has advocated for workers’ rights. He sponsored a bill in 2013 to speed up civil cases of people who were cheated out of their wages. Martinez signed Archuleta’s bill into law after it cleared the House and the Senate.

District 53, parts of Doña Ana and Otero counties Democratic Rep. Nate Cote is retiring. Former Rep. Rick Little, who defeated Cote in 2010 and then lost to him two years later, is running again. Democrats have nominated Mariaelena Johnson as their candidate.

Johnson, of Chaparral, helped organize a get-out-the-vote movement two years ago. Then she received considerable attention because of a confrontation on election night.

The Otero County clerk’s staff called sheriff’s deputies after a long line of voters gathered at the Chaparral polling place. Later, the clerk herself would say the crowd was “unruly,” an allegation that Johnson called untrue. Johnson said people simply were trying to exercise their right to vote, and the police presence intimidated many of them.

Legislators held a hearing on whether voter suppression occurred in Chaparral. Democrats claimed it did based on the Otero clerk’s actions and depu-

ties putting yellow tape around the polling place, as though it were a crime scene.

Little, also of Chaparral, moves buildings for a living. He served one term before losing to Cote. Little passed no bills, but consistently voted for Martinez’s initiatives, including the driver’s license repeal and a bill in 2011 to retain third-graders who were below par on reading tests.

District 43, Los Alamos, Rio Arriba, Sandoval and Santa Fe counties Republican Rep. Jeannette Wallace held this seat for 20 years until her death in 2011.

Then, Democrat Stephanie Garcia Richard of Los Alamos won it by a narrow margin in the 2012 election. Now Garcia Richard is being challenged by Republican Geoff Rodgers, also of Los Alamos. He is the chairman of the county council and has a property management business.

Garcia Richard is an educator who coaches science teachers in Pojoaque to help them be more effective in the classroom. She has been outspoken on education issues as a House member, saying Martinez’s policies amount to an attack on teachers.

The candidates are friendly with each other, but the race is likely to get rough. Martinez long has criticized Garcia Richard for initially voting to advance the driver’s license repeal in the House, then changing her position.

District 37, Doña Ana County Republican Rep. Terry McMillan is in a rematch with Democrat Joanne Ferrary. They waged one of the state’s closest races two years ago.

McMillan defeated Ferrary by eight votes after a recount of more than 12,000 ballots.

Both candidates are from Las Cruces. Ferrary formerly worked for the state Department of Transportation. One of her professional interests was in reducing drunken driving, one of New Mexico’s most pervasive crimes.

After losing the 2012 election, Ferrary regularly attended legislative sessions, advocating for an increase in the minimum wage and other initiatives favored by Democrats.

She said the Legislature is not productive enough because it bogs down on wedge issues instead of solving problems that would help families out of poverty.

McMillan, a surgeon in ear, nose and throat cases, is among the few legislators with a background in health care.

Bills he sponsored that became law included allowing pharmacists to dispose of a dangerous drug on a practitioner’s order, and letting nonresident disabled veterans hunt oryx at a lower fee.

McMillan seldom speaks in floor debates. But he has regularly supported Martinez’s positions, such as opposing a $1-anhour increase in the minimum wage in 2013.

District 5, McKinley and San Juan counties One way or another, Democrats will keep this seat. But it’s important to both parties who wins the race between Doreen Johnson and Rep. Sandra Jeff.

The state Supreme Court removed Jeff from the ballot after she failed to file 78 valid signatures on nominating petitions.

Jeff now is running as a write-in candidate. Republicans prefer that she keep the seat because Jeff has voted with them on a budget bill and measures to repeal immigrant driver’s licenses.

Jeff also caused a stir this year

Ebola: Close contact has become taboo, but some cannot resist Continued from Page A-1 “Na mind, baby,” Diggs whispered in her baby’s ear. “I beg you, na mind.”

Here in the heart of the worst Ebola outbreak in history, the question of whether to touch a stranger has only one answer: you don’t. But even in more intimate circles, in families and among lifelong friends, Liberians are starting to pull away from one another, straining against generations of a culture in which closeness is expressed through physical contact.

Liberia — from the elite doyennes who spend their days sending houseboys to the market to fetch oranges for them, all the way to the young boys on Tubman Boulevard who run up to cars hawking plastic bags of ice — used to be a tactile place. Everybody kissed friends, strangers and cousins, regardless of whether people met every day or had not seen one another in 20 years.

In a version of the gentile affectations that freed American slaves brought with them two centuries ago when they came here, the double-cheek kiss, for decades, was the standard greeting.

People often held hands while singing hymns at First United Methodist Church on Ashmun Street on Sundays, and after services sometimes took up to an hour to disperse, going systematically from cheek to cheek.

At parties in Monrovia, new arrivals went from person to person around a room, taking the hand of each seated guest as they bent down to kiss and chat. Sometimes it could take 15 to 20 minutes to make the rounds at a house party of just 10 people. When it was time to leave, the ritual began again.

That’s all gone now. Ebola is spread through bodily fluids: vomit, blood,

A man helps locals wash their hands with chlorinated water at a community meeting Sept. 1 in Monrovia, Liberia. Straining against generations of habit in a culture where closeness is expressed through physical contact, Liberians have begun to pull away from one another in the desperate battle against Ebola. DANIEL BEREHULAK/THE NEW YORK TIMES

feces, tears, saliva and sweat. Close contact has become taboo.

The Liberian government has decreed that taxis — which used to cram in six, seven, eight people, and in a recent case, four goats even — are allowed to take just three people in the back seat: fewer riders to touch one another.

Sylvester Vagn, 40, who was a corporate driver with a tech company before he was laid off a few months ago, said Thursday that even with only two people sharing the taxi with him, he still now jams his body against the door.

Whichever arm is closest to his fellow passengers, he places it across his body

and practically out the window.

“I sit so, with my head so,” he said, demonstrating how he leans his head as far away as possible. “And I bring jacket.”

Clara K. Mallah, 27, wears long sleeves, pulling them over her hands whenever her 3-year-old niece comes running up to her. Mallah, a national translator with an international organization in Monrovia, makes an exception only for her 52-year-old mother, a diabetic amputee who never leaves the house. Even so, Mallah has trepidation.

“If my mom could walk,” she said, “I wouldn’t touch her.”

Those close family ties expose the

fragility of the belief that you can completely protect yourself from Ebola by keeping your hands to yourself. Can you really not touch an ailing mother?

Ephraim Dunbar couldn’t. When Dunbar, 37, got a phone call in late August that his mother had taken ill, he rushed to her house in Dolos Town, the enclave near Harbel where dozens of people have succumbed to Ebola. He found her in bed, vomiting blood.

His mind went immediately to the precautions against the virus. He did his best not to touch her. But as she grew worse, unable to keep anything down, he gave her milk, and tried to soothe her. His skin touched hers.

His mother died the next day.

Just after his mother’s funeral, Dunbar’s own forehead got hot with fever.

For 15 days, he stayed at John F. Kennedy Hospital in Monrovia, fighting the disease. It was a fight he eventually won. But when he got out of the hospital, he found out that four of his sisters, his brother, his father, his aunt, his uncle and his two nephews had died. His entire family, wiped out in days.

On Friday, Dunbar said he would do nothing different. “That’s my ma,” he said, “that she the one born me.”

Levy Zeopuegar’s Achilles’ heel was his oldest sister, Neconie — “one father, one mother,” he described her in the Liberian way of distinguishing the special bond of full siblings in a country where half brothers or half sisters are common.

When Neconie got sick, her brother chartered a private car to take her to the hospital and climbed in with her.

When the driver pointed out that blood was pooling from her nose, Zeopuegar turned to her with a towel.

Neconie died. Her husband, also in

the car, died. Zeopuegar almost died as well, spending 19 days in the Ebola treatment unit in Harbel. For days, he hiccupped blood, feeling each day was his last, until finally, one morning, he woke up and knew he would live.

“You have to understand,” he tried to explain. “This Ebola thing. You will see your son or daughter sick in bed and say, ‘I not touching her?’ That is impossible.”

And yet, that is what Liberians must do to combat the virus. On the streets of Monrovia, it sometimes seems impossible. Children still run around in local markets pushing and playing. People in wheelchairs still roll up to cars at red lights, palms outstretched. Boys still push their way through the densely crowded West Point neighborhood.

Many people say they have not felt the warmth of human skin in months.

Many do not shake hands or kiss any more. No caressing. No hugging.

But some still do. Sister Barbara Brillant, dean of Mother Patern College of Health Sciences at St. Theresa’s Convent, last week was driving down the street when she saw a young couple holding hands.

“Stop holding hands!” she yelled out the car window.

“They looked at me like I was crazy,” Sister Barbara said later.

So when 2-year-old Rebecca got sick, Precious Diggs picked her baby up.

Rebecca did not make it, and died days later.

She passed Ebola on to her mom.

Weeks later, Diggs was released from a treatment unit. She sat in front of the discharge tent with a row of eight people, all recovered from the disease, all waiting to walk out into new and starkly different lives.

House: District 5 candidate faces write-in challenge from own party Continued from Page A-4 on the minimum-wage bill, further alienating her from fellow Democrats.

Vice President Joe Biden called Jeff to encourage her to vote for the wage increase. She denied that the conversation occurred, then walked off the House floor without voting on the bill, which failed.

Jeff publicly admitted the next day that she had lied when she denied Biden had phoned her.

She said she wasn’t sure she should talk about the call. Only after the White House said Biden and Jeff had spoken, she said, she felt free to confirm the call.

In late September, the Democratic Party of New Mexico filed an ethics complaint against Jeff, alleging she cheated on travel expenses last year.

Virtually all of Jeff’s Democratic colleagues in the House are rooting for Johnson. Reps.

Mimi Stewart and Patricia Lundstrom have donated money to Johnson’s campaign.

Conversely, a well-known Republican lawyer, Pat Rogers, represented a voter who signed Jeff’s nominating petition. Rogers’ attempt to keep Jeff on the ballot failed in the courts, leaving her with the write-in campaign as her only hope to be re-elected.

District 8, Valencia County Republican Rep. Alonzo Baldonado is in a district safer than Fajardo’s. Still, Democrats hope this seat is in play because of Baldonado’s refusal to vote on the minimum wage and his comments about yoga as a religious threat.

Baldonado, who describes himself as an evangelical Christian, last year generated enormous attention because he said teaching yoga in schools could be a gateway to Eastern religions.

“I think it tends to open a door to a practice tied to a religious belief,” he said in an interview after an interim committee hearing on yoga as a means of encouraging healthy exercise and combating childhood obesity.

Various teachers in the state use yoga as physical education, though they usually are careful to call it stretching or mat work, and

to allow students with religious objections to skip the workout.

Democrat Frank Otero, a farmer and retired state employee, is running against Baldonado. Otero’s focus is the economy. He says his background in government and the private sector position him to help the state attract well-paying jobs.

District 24, Bernalillo County Competition for this seat will feature another rematch from 2012. Freshman Rep. Liz Thomson, a Democrat, is being challenged by Conrad James, the Republican she unseated.

Thomson has become one of the Democrats’ leaders on behavioral health coverage since Gov. Martinez’s administration cut off funding to more than a dozen providers last year, citing allegations of fraud. Thomson is

a pediatric physical therapist.

James served one term in the House before losing to Thomson.

A research engineer, he has a doctorate from Cornell.

In his first year in office, James sponsored a successful bill on jail inspections and a failed one that would have prohibited school-based health centers from offering advice or health care on contraception, abortion, sexually transmitted diseases or reproductive functions.

After James lost to Thomson in the 2012 House race, Gov. Martinez appointed him to The University of New Mexico Board of Regents.

District 15, Bernalillo County Democrat Emily Kane won this seat two years ago, defeating both her political opponents and the city of Albuquerque, which challenged her candidacy.

Kane is a city fire captain.

Republican Mayor Richard Berry’s administration said the city charter prohibited her from running for public office. Kane challenged that claim and has prevailed in court so far.

Republicans have nominated Sarah Maestas Barnes as their candidate. An attorney, she is emphasizing job creation in her campaign.

District 4, San Juan County Republican Sharon Clahchischilliage won this seat two years ago, ousting longtime Democratic Rep. Ray Begaye. He was engulfed in a scandal over his travel expenses, and that gave Clahchischilliage a windfall of votes from people who distrusted Begaye.

Democrats have nominated Harrison Todacheene in hopes of recapturing the seat. He ran

an unsuccessful campaign for president of the Navajo Nation in 2006. Both candidates are from Shiprock.

Additionally, there’s one sleeper race to watch:

District 29, Bernalillo County Republican Rep. Tom Anderson lost in the primary election after serving 12 years in the House. GOP voters dropped Anderson, 81, in favor of David Adkins, a pastor and businessman.

The Democratic candidate is Ronnie Martinez, a retired Bernalillo County firefighter. Ronnie Martinez is busy knocking on doors, and he says he can win.

Contact Milan Simonich at 986-3080 or msimonich@ sfnewmexican.com. Follow his Ringside Seat column and blog at santafenewmexican.com.

District 7, Valencia County Rep. Kelly Fajardo, a quiet freshman from Belen, was among the legislators who were publicly rebuked last winter by House Speaker Kenny Martinez, a Democrat.

Fajardo walked away from her seat in the House chamber instead of voting on the bill to raise New Mexico’s minimum wage. Speaker Martinez said members who intentionally duck votes are failing to do their duty.

Democrats have seized on that issue in targeting Fajardo for defeat.

She won election in 2012 with just over 50 percent of the vote.

This time, Democrats have nominated a physician, Teresa Smith de Cherif, in hopes of regaining the seat.

Smith de Cherif is an elected member of the Valencia Soil and Water Conservation District.

She said she supports raising the minimum wage.

leaning heavily on PACs

By Ashley Parker and Nicholas Confessore The New York Times

WASHINGTON — With the battle for the Senate tilting toward Republicans and President Barack Obama’s approval ratings hovering near his alltime low, Democrats are more reliant than they have ever been on the very kind of big-money groups they have spent years trying to outlaw.

They are countering the Republican Party’s expansive and formidable outside spending network this fall with a smaller but more tightly knit alliance of groups that share donors, closely coordinate their advertising and hit harder than their conservative counterparts.

To hold the Senate, the Democratic outside spending network is working hand in hand with — and is funded by — the party’s traditional ideological allies, including abortion rights organizations, environmentalists and labor unions. They have overlapping board memberships, use the same voter data and even share ad content.

Most of their on-air money is being spent through a cluster of super PACs, which can explicitly advocate the election or defeat of specific candidates.

And they have rapidly narrowed the traditional financial gap with Republican groups, alarming Republican strategists in what has otherwise been a dismal year for Democrats.

“The Democrats — their coalition has been around a while, and it’s tried and true, and they all know how to tango together. And the Republicans are all kind of doing their own individual dances,” said John Feehery, a Republican strategist.

Coordination on the right has been hampered by competition for donors and lingering distrust between the party-allied groups, like the Crossroads organizations, founded by Karl Rove, and those seeking to challenge the party establishment, such as Americans for Prosperity and Freedom Partners, the lead players in the political network overseen by the billionaire brothers Charles G. and David H. Koch. The two sides have jockeyed for cash and influence, while also grappling with ideologically tinged primary battles that sucked up time, money and good will.

issuing licenses.)

The magazine said Yates had a meeting with Martinez in Santa Fe in the fall of 2012, when, Yates said, the governor wanted to hit up one of his cousins for a big campaign contribution.

Yates gave the governor a 10-page letter that laid out his problems with her administration, and as outlined in The National Journal, the complaints were similar to ones Yates expressed in his recent opinion piece. Yates told the magazine that he’d asked Martinez to keep the letter confidential. But when he got home to Albuquerque, he found an email from McCleskey dismissing the complaints.

It also was in the autumn of 2012 when Yates wrote an op-ed published in the Albuquerque Journal blasting McCleskey for running “dishonest ads” against Jennings. “I do not like dishonest ads directed at Republicans.

I, also, do not like dishonest ads directed at Democrats,” the column said. (McCleskey disputed that his ads were dishonest.)

And, in a reference to McCleskey and another unnamed political consultant, Yates wrote, “I believe the state would be wellserved if both parties severely clipped the wings of such political operatives.”

In August 2013, Yates wrote another op-ed in the Albuquerque Journal, saying, “Most voters recognize that Susana Martinez is governor today because voters were fatigued by the former administration’s corruption. …

Thus, I was concerned when rumors of impropriety began to seep from the Martinez administration. But as to corruption, I was skeptical. Now, months later, I am not so skeptical.”

He wasn’t specific about the “impropriety.”

In that opinion piece, Yates also took a jab at King. “Truth is most likely to come from subpoenaed documents and from sworn testimony. No private citizen has the capacity to cause the issuance of subpoenas or to require sworn testimony. The attorney general does, but most Republicans and many Democrats agree on one thing: New Mexico’s attorney general is incompetent.”

On the In Focus segment, Foley criticized Yates for “being on the wrong side in multiple battles.”

Taking a longer view, however, the former lawmaker added, “He’s probably going to be here a lot longer than Jay McCleskey’s going to be here. He’s probably going to be a player a lot longer than Jay’s going to be. But right now is not his time.”

THE NEW MEXICAN Sunday, October 5, 2014

Artesia: 952 women and children have come through since June 27 Continued from Page A-1 flood of unaccompanied minors arriving from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras — and a similar number who made the trip with a parent, as all of those here did — the debate about where they ought to go has played out in this dusty oil and agriculture town in the southeastern corner of the state, 100 miles from the Texas border.

With deportations expedited and arrivals way down in the past two months — even beyond the usual decline of arrivals while it’s too hot to make the trip — U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said last month that “the worst is over for now.”

Yet housing for detainees is still expanding. In June, there were fewer than 100 such beds for families in the entire country.

Now, there are 650 here, 96 at a facility in Pennsylvania and 530 in Texas, where a second facility is opening soon.

Artesia isn’t a quick hop from anywhere — the closest airport is in Roswell, 38 miles away, and the only flights out of there are to Dallas. Still, a new group of immigration lawyers working pro bono arrives every 10 days from all over the country, and they try to pick up where their colleagues left off.

Most of the lawyers’ long list of other complaints stem from concern that Obama sent the wrong message from the start when he said the goal was to send these illegal immigrants back ASAP, to discourage others from making the trip. Although the president said their rights must be protected, and he acknowledged the spike of violence in their home countries, the immigrants’ advocates fear that part of his message has gotten lost.

When we first arrived at the facility, located inside a training camp for federal law enforcement officers — Border Patrol and air marshals, mostly — the place looked empty in the heat of the day. Basketball hoops had been set up outside, but there wasn’t a blade of grass or an inch of shade, and on such a cloudless day, no one was using them.

Each room in the modular building where the families stay has a TV, so most of the waryand weary-looking women and their children, who were waving and shouting, “Hola! Hola!,” were watching the tube from their beds. A few had rosaries hanging from their bedposts or dangling from the wires of upper bunks.

One of the ground rules of

the tour was that reporters were not to speak to or otherwise engage any of the detainees.

Another was that of the four ICE and Department of Homeland Security officials accompanying six reporters, none except the spokeswoman could be quoted by name. I did get the impression that they’d like to help the women and children here — they did volunteer to come, after all, and it is not exactly cushy for them, either.

But the emergency circumstances under which this makeshift operation was set up make that harder. Trying to send immigrants back as soon as possible without violating their right to due process in applying for asylum is trickier still. And even the best intentions do not always translate into reality.

There’s a trailer with little pink princess chairs arranged in a circle, where women are supposed to be able to send their kids if they don’t want to tell their lawyers about being raped in front of their children. Only, for some mysterious reason, an official says, hardly anyone has requested to use the room, apparently preferring to keep their kids with them at all times.

Are baby sitters available? Not exactly, he says, “but there’s an officer, and if the child needs to go to the bathroom or there’s a diaper issue,” the mom is called back in. Mystery solved.

Another problem, according to the lawyers, is access to their clients; the phone message system officials here call “100 percent operational” still isn’t getting messages to clients, they say. And when they do get to talk, speaking about traumatic events takes far more time than they have.

Gangs in their home countries have increasingly been targeting women and girls, competing for who can rape or control the most, and brutally punishing those “chosen” to be the “gang’s girlfriend” who attempt to decline that honor.

Denver-based lawyer Laura Lichter, a former president of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, said she has met with a number of rape victims in Artesia. Other clients include a female Salvadoran store owner whose 2-year-old was threatened by gang members after she refused to pay protection money, and a family of Seventh-day Adventists targeted by the mob for talking about how God is in charge, not some gang leader.

Their house was sprayed with bullets, the mother and father

were shot, and yet when they arrived in the U.S. with their 3-year-old, the family was separated and detained. The mother and son were sent here, and the father nearly was deported, despite four gunshot wounds and police and hospital reports documenting how he got them.

His wife did not even pass an initial “credible fear” hearing that should have made her eligible to apply for asylum, Lichter said, although that finding was overturned right before her husband was pulled off the plane.

Of the 952 women and kids who’ve come through Artesia since June 27, 306 have been returned home, officials said.

“There’s a politically motivated bias against these cases” on the part of the Obama administration, Lichter said, and officials are “using every dirty trick in the book” to hustle even those with “good, solid, textbook claims” back into terrible danger. “I don’t have words to describe how wrong it is.”

A DHS official insisted that no one had been instructed to rush these cases for political reasons, saying, “We’ve made sure to give them a full and fair ‘credible fear’ hearing, and I’m confident our people have done so.”

Community divided On the other side of the fences topped with barbed wire, some

of the nicest people you’d ever want to meet say outright that they worry about the uninvited visitors.

In the Jahva House, a Christian coffee shop near City Hall, the walls are covered with crosses and the sign in the front window says, “Lean on God, not the glass.” A woman waiting for her cafe latte was running her finger down a page of the Bible left on the counter for customers to leaf through. She’s retired now, but she used to work at the 220-acre Federal Law Enforcement Training Center where the immigrant women and their kids are being held.

That arrangement is “a slap in the face to those men,” said the woman, Dova Cronian, who described herself as an Artesia native whose children are fifthgeneration in this town. “I know how hard those agents work to protect our borders, and then to bring those very people here, to stay in the same facilities as the people trying to protect us from them?”

The young barista making her drink disagreed: “My church is the one that goes in there on Sunday mornings, and it’s amazing,” said the barista, Devin Parker, who graduated from the local high school last year and wants to join the Army when his broken leg heals. “Why keep them out?” he asked Cronian.

When the town first learned

that some of the immigrants were en route to Artesia, Parker said, “there was this mess on Facebook with a bunch of people saying they were going to go picket and block the entrance so they couldn’t get in. But my dad” — an associate pastor at the Living Well Church of the Nazarene — “got on Facebook and said, ‘Well I hope when we get to heaven, St. Peter doesn’t send the angels out to block the gate.’ ” John Parker, who in his son’s description sounds like an Atticus Finch of the social media age, seems to have shamed them out of that plan: “People didn’t really like what I had to say,” he said on the phone later, “but they’ve said no more words about [blocking the entrance.]”

The women in detention there have taught him a lot, he said.

“They have nothing and here they are in a foreign place and literally in a prison but they’re smiling and yelling ‘Bienvenidos’ and praising God and asking us to bless their children; it’s a blessing to go and be a part of it.”

According to local news accounts, that’s a minority view.

At three town meetings, critics have reportedly dominated the discussion, worrying at length about whether the detainees are criminals or have communicable diseases or shouldn’t be getting so many freebies. “Our city and government has to look at our own kids that are doing without,”

one woman said. “They don’t have housing provided to them — they don’t know when they’re getting their next meal.”

One in six families here, just as in the U.S. as a whole, does live below the poverty line. Most of the homes in town are modest, as is the self-image of the hotel maid who asks me, “Are you here for work?” then mocks her own question. “Why else would anybody come here, vacation?”

Or of the pharmacist who volunteers that “there’s a certain kind of beauty here, even if our trees only grow this tall” — waist-high.

There aren’t a lot of towns of 11,000 with an oil refinery right downtown, or the kind of public art that oil money has brought here. On Main Street, there’s a series of bronze sculptures of the cowboys who settled this area.

And in the new town library a few blocks away, the visual anchor is a vast 1952 mural by New Mexico artist Peter Hurd.

The work, called The Future Belongs to Those Who Prepare for It, was moved here from Houston, and just moving it cost private donors more than $1 million.

Another local point of pride is the Bulldog Bowl, the public high school’s football stadium for its 27-time state champion team.

Mayor Phil Burch said he thinks “the community’s been for the most part very tolerant” of the family shelter, although “they’d prefer it not be here.”

oney talks.

And the conversation has grown too loud in New Mexico’s political system.

Our state is facing major problems, including ranking last in the nation in job growth, according to The University of New Mexico’s Bureau of Business and Economic Research.

We may be last in job growth and deficient in supporting economic recovery, but there is a flood of money pumping into our state’s campaign system. We must join to remedy this problem so that legislators can focus on what’s important: bringing jobs to our state, rather than having to raise endless campaign money.

Although I am reluctant to sign petitions, with new ones appearing online daily, I am supporting the New Mexico Pledge Campaign. It could be our opportunity to lead the nation in stopping the influence of money in politics.

As a consultant to foundations as well as businesses over the last

three years, I’ve seen firsthand the need in our community and state: educational gaps, health care inequities, food insecurity.

The Los Alamos Billie Blair National Laboratory Foundation, a leader in education, for example, has stepped up to provide hands-on science in Northern New Mexico classrooms and to secure foundation funding for First Born, a home visitation program for women in their first pregnancy, first-time families and their newborns. Con Alma Health Care Foundation, where I learned through completing a report on health inequities that the type of health care one gets depends on your ZIP code, continues to support nonprofits that help make quality health care available to more — but by far not all — of our citizens.

As our state’s problems com-

pound, the role of money in politics in New Mexico continues to grow. Between 2005 and 2012, New Mexico political action committees spent almost $45 million on political campaigns.

During that same time, total contributions to PACs from outside New Mexico doubled, with Washington, D.C., ranking first among out-of-state contributors.

Our lawmakers are being overly influenced by out-of-state interests, which rarely is in the best interest of our citizens. A survey by Research and Polling Inc. and New Mexico Common Cause showed that 80 percent of New Mexicans think the effect of money in politics on the outcome of our elections is a serious problem.

The cost of running a political campaign today has become almost prohibitive, so candidates need financial resources to be competitive. Why candidates waste so much money on negative network TV is confounding. Increasingly, candi-

dates must look to non-New Mexican sources for money. As a result, New Mexicans deserve to know who is doing the talking.

New Mexico needs better disclosure in elections, better disclosure in lobbying activities and the development of disclosure technology that makes election and lobbying disclosure filings easier, more transparent and more affordable for the state.

The New Mexico Pledge Campaign, a coalition of New Mexico community and business leaders, is trying to do just that. This fall, whether you are Republican, Democratic, Green or independent, you can make a difference. Go to www. newmexicopledge.com and sign the pledge and be heard.

Although money talks, the voice of the people talks even louder. Let’s take back our state.

Billie Blair is a consultant in media, marketing and public policy.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Pool resources to take environmental action

I

t is entirely doable for humanity to live on this Earth and use its resources while protecting and sustaining those resources and the environment. The only reason that doesn’t happen is human greed and ignorance. And sometimes, maybe, because too many entities are trying to address the same issues individually vs. pooling resources. I want to save wolves and stop fracking, for example, but I cannot make donations to every organization working on those issues. Why don’t they coordinate and take focused action?

Maybe one group could lead legal efforts, another educational efforts, another focus on local actions, etc.

Divided resources don’t conquer issues.

Fighting hunger The Food Depot would like to thank Northern New Mexico for the community support it received during September’s Hunger Action Month.

During September, The Food Depot kicked off a partnership with the Española Valley Humane Society in Rio Arriba County to help families feed their pets. The San Isidro Harvest Run 5K was a great success, with more than 70 participants running, walking and learning how to help those in need. The third annual Neighbor to Neighbor food drive brought together 23 Santa Fe neighborhood associations and donated more than 15,000 pounds of food.

Other food drives this month brought in hundreds of pounds of food.

Trying to make ends meet is a continuous struggle for many in our state. The Food Depot, with the support of Northern New Mexico, strives to end hunger.

For more information on organizing a food drive, donating or volunteering, contact The Food Depot at 471-1633, or go to www.thefood depot.org.

Lousy words What I am going to say is going to provoke anger in some; so be it.

Young Adan Gallegos was by no means the first nor will he be the last to “dry up” on the words to The Star Spangled Banner, as happened at this year’s Zozobra. It has happened often and will continue to happen. The words to our anthem are virtually incomprehensible, genuinely lousy poetry — hardly make sense. The very subject of the poem (the flag!) is not even mentioned until the last line. (It was not made our national anthem until the 1930s.) In no other country on Earth do people stand — silently, only listening and not singing — when our anthem is sung by a designated singer because virtually nobody knows the words. And if they do know the words, they know them by rote, hardly if at all knowing what they mean. In addition, the melody is nearly impossible to sing. This is

unique to America. Every citizen of every other country on Earth knows her/his national anthem and sings it.

We are alone. So, let us not criticize this young man for losing words. It is hard to keep track of words that are so awkwardly composed. And I will bet that few, if any, of those criticizing this young man could recite the entire stanza without a mistake.

Pot’s not harmful Decriminalization of marijuana will not reduce poverty or hunger, but legalization will (“Pot decriminalization will do harm,” Letters to the editor, Sept. 28). Our state could certainly enjoy the huge tax dollars that would come with legalization. And pot only really leads to other drugs because the same criminals who sell pot have an interest in hooking their customers on a wider range of substances. One might say that during Prohibition, society made alcohol difficult to obtain for a reason. But then we realized that those who weren’t going to abuse alcohol weren’t going to start just because it was available.

And that making it illegal wasn’t going to stop those who were.

Stop and search?

Recently, I went to a local movie theater, bought a senior ticket and walked up to the ticket taker, who asked me if I minded if she looked

into my backpack for “security” reasons, which was “just policy” but necessary to see the film. I told her I did mind and felt it an invasion of my privacy.

This strikes me as the local parallel to the National Security Administration’s policies, in the name of “national security,” to invade the privacy of millions of innocent Americans’ emails on the chance that “somebody” might be a threat to us.

So here we have a commercial enterprise that sees its customers as potential “security threats” and demands we prove ourselves not to be one, as part of the price of admission to enter its business.

Casanova con What was Gary King thinking when he helped get the Casanova con man out of prison after serving only five years of his 34-year sentence?

Only he can answer that, but I’m very disappointed in his poor judgment.

Casanova hired King’s friend to lobby for him, and King gave in and made a deal to get him out early. Did King stop to think about Casanova’s victims, the women he had scammed and stolen from? It doesn’t sound like it.

Electing King as governor of New Mexico would be electing the powerful to run Santa Fe. We can’t let that happen.

W

e’ve heard plenty about the socalled War on Women and how society doesn’t do enough to nurture its girls, but I’ve got news for you: Boys aren’t doing so well, either.

In fact, a quick glance and Google search turns up some startling numbers that indicate that millions of boys aren’t just heading into a danger zone but already are living in it.

Some national statistics: u Preschool boys are expelled nearly five times more often than girls. u Boys are four times more likely to be diagnosed with learning disorders. u Boys are 30 percent more likely to flunk out or drop out of school.

Here in New Mexico, the figures Rob are just as bad, if not Nikolewski worse.

Two weeks ago, the Commentary Legislative Finance Committee released the state’s dropout rates, and the statistics were sobering: 58 percent of the dropouts were boys — 16 percent higher than for girls.

The people at LFC did some more digging for me and came back with numbers that were even more depressing.

Boys make up 62.5 percent of the students in the past school year who were suspended or expelled and 60.7 percent of those who had to repeat the ninth grade. The numbers for Hispanic and Native American boys were disproportionately high.

The pattern continues into higher education.

The number of women attending colleges and universities across the country first exceeded men back in 1979, and the numbers have widened ever since. Today, young men account for less than 43 percent of those enrolled in college.

And the same goes for those enrolled for post-graduate studies, where women have outpaced men every year since 1988.

The numbers in New Mexico mirror that.

For example, at The University of New Mexico this fall, 56 percent of the enrollment is female and just 44 percent is male. UNM enrollment officials told me we have to go back more than 30 years to find a time when men outnumbered women on the UNM campus.

Yet there’s been a relative silence about all this. It would be safe to guess that the average American isn’t aware of these figures, and you can bet if the numbers were reversed, there would a national hue and cry.

But the huge question is why the numbers for boys have eroded so relentlessly.

What in American society in recent years has caused so many boys to fall through the cracks?

Is it an absence of fathers?

A workforce that is increasingly more service-oriented and less blue-collar?

One recent book claims schools are “boy-unfriendly” by focusing a curriculum on “writing about ‘feelings’ and its purging of ‘high-action’ reading material, from the rise of video gaming and schools’ unease with technology to the lack of male teachers as role models.”

Another theorizes that schools have boys “spend too much time sitting and not enough time learning by doing, making and building things.”

Maybe, but didn’t the old-fashioned school insist on boys sitting still in class and absorbing the material? Plus, that doesn’t explain why the problems have gotten worse.

Or is it something else?

I’ve never been much for the ethnic or gender cheerleading that has littered far too many policy discussions in the last 30 years or so. Whether the debate centers on economics or culture, we too often slip into a zero-sum game exercise where, if one side wins, that automatically means another side loses. That’s a false choice.

Turning around the statistics for boys must not come at the expense of our girls.

But it’s often said that admitting you have a problem is the first step toward fixing it.

And, America and New Mexico, we have a problem. And it’s a big one. Our boys are in trouble, and we need to find some answers before another generation finds itself with a one-way ticket to the underclass.

Plastic bag bans keep spreading

W

ith California becoming the first state to ban single-use plastic bags, it’s clear that Santa Fe’s ban — which went into effect in February 2014 — is part of a larger movement. The use-it-and-toss-it mentality is being replaced. That’s what banning plastic bags is about.

However, a ban on single-use plastic bags has other purposes. Most importantly, banning the bags cuts down on litter. Judging from parks and fences around town, the ban in Santa Fe has started reducing the ubiquitous plastic bag presence around town.

More should be done, though, to help consumers move to reusable bags now that plastic is no longer an option.

Paper bags are not an environmentally friendly option, yet too many shoppers grab them when they forget their reusable bags. Too many other shoppers don’t even try to bring their own bags, a habit we all need to form. Unless people reuse bags, a ban on plastic bags doesn’t necessarily cut down on other environmental impacts.

In California, the statewide ban — set to begin next summer — includes a charge of 10 cents per recycled paper bag, compostable bags or reusable plastic bag. The 10-cent fee will help encourage consumers to switch to reusable bags, and that switch is important for this legislation to have the broadest possible effect. Without a fee, shoppers tend just to choose paper. People on public assistance won’t have to pay the fee. (Hawaii also essentially has banned plastic bags, but on a county-by-county basis rather than statewide.)

Of course, plastic bag manufacturers in California aren’t taking the new law sitting down. They will push for a ballot initiative against the ban, meaning the law could never take effect. That’s despite the sad reality that California residents toss some 14 billion bags a year, creating 123,000 tons of waste and who-knows-how-much litter. Additionally, the plastic in landfills won’t break down for 1,000 years and will leave behind particles that can leach chemicals into soil and water. For ocean creatures, who mistake plastic particles for food, the bags cause hundreds of thousands of deaths a year. Breaking the habit is good for the Earth.

Santa Fe city councilors earlier decided to drop our city’s 10-cent bag fee, using the excuse that lawyers told them it was an impermissible tax. Perhaps California’s bold step will embolden the council to bring back a fee — even a 5-cent fee works, according to a 2013 dissertation by a Princeton University graduate student. A fee works better than a bag credit, the research found. It’s an incentive to change habits. But even without a bag charge, the city needs to do more to encourage residents to reuse bags.

Education, public awareness and more reusable bag giveaways could all help reduce paper bag use. It’s not enough simply to ban the bags. New habits need to be formed.

With consumers around the world estimated to use 1 trillion plastic bags each year, such bans are important to helping people change their ways. New Mexico should follow the example of Santa Fe, Hawaii and California and implement a broader bag ban. It would help reduce litter across the state — the fences along our highways are sad sights. Habits must change. One and done should be a relic of the past.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Oct. 5, 1914: Gallup — Between 40 and 50 of the refugees lately interned at Fort Wingate will remain in the United States, the majority of them probably to become residents of New Mexico. Immigration officers who have been examining those who did not wish to return to Mexico and whom the government would permit to remain, have declared more than 40 eligible.

Oct. 5, 1964: Española — The Española Valley, fertile with chile and apples, has never been considered exactly suitable for that southland crop, cotton. But Mrs. Mildred Walker, home agent-atlarge for Taos and Rio Arriba Counties, is proving that it will grow.

She decided to plant a few cotton seeds and see what happened.

Now the stalks are nearing 2 feet in height and have formed “squares” where the bloom and eventually the boll develops.

Planted too late, this year’s plants won’t have time before frost to make cotton, but the plant is beautiful and next year she plans to plant earlier.

Oct. 5, 1989: Albuquerque — New Mexico savings and loan associations lost $185.1 million in the first six months of 1989, compared with a $409.8 million loss during the same period last year. The New Mexico thrifts ranked 11th nationwide in total losses. Fourteen of the savings and loans in the state showed a profit, while the other 10 lost money.

Still, the historical record of the last half-century is that education tends to nurture a more cosmopolitan middle class and gives people a stake in the system. In Hong Kong today, we’re seeing how educated youth often behave. They are demanding democracy, but peacefully.

Girls’ education seems to have more effect than boys’ education, partly because educated women have markedly fewer children. The result is lower birthrates and less of a youth bulge in the population, which highly correlates to civil conflict.

I support judicious airstrikes in the short term against the Islamic State, but that should be only one part of a policy combating extremism. And a starting point should be to ensure that the 3 million Syrian refugees mostly in Turkey, Jordan and Lebanon — especially girls — can get schooling. Right now, many are getting none, and one study published last month found that Syria had the worst reversal in educational attainment in recent history, with enrollment rates for Syrian children in Lebanon less than half the level of those in sub-Saharan Africa.

Yet the UNICEF request for education funding for Syrians was only 40 percent financed as of mid-August. If we miss this opportunity, those children will be tinder for future wars and extremism, and we’ll be stuck dropping bombs for generations to come.

So let’s learn from the extremists — and from those brave girls themselves who are willing to risk their lives in order to get an education. They all understand the power of education, and we should, too.

Secret Service no stranger to scandal

N

o power couple cut a wider social swath in post-Civil War Washington than President Ulysses S. Grant’s attorney general, George H. Williams, and his wife, Kate.

Then Kate Williams’ abandoned son from a previous marriage spoiled things by showing up in the capital, gambling and consorting with prostitutes — sometimes bringing them to receptions at the Williamses’ grand home on Rhode Island Avenue. He financed this embarrassing lifestyle by blackmailing the attorney general.

So George Williams called in the chief of the Secret Service, Hiram C. Whitley.

Get rid of my stepson, he said, and do it quietly. No blood. Whitley promptly obliged. Undercover Secret Service men got the youth drunk, convinced him, after he regained consciousness, that he had committed murder while intoxicated, then helped him “escape” to Veracruz, Mexico — where they abandoned him.

He never bothered the Williamses again.

Now that’s a Secret Service scandal. At least it would have been, if the story had come out before Whitley told it decades later in his memoir, a book that few people read in the year of its publication, 1894, and even fewer have read since.

Still, the tale provides a dash of historical context for the travails of today’s Secret Service, an agency justly proud of its record but never free of controversy, even in its earliest days.

Congress established the Secret Service as a division of the Treasury Department in 1865; its mission was to combat counterfeiting of the new paper currency issued during the Civil War. As such, it was the first-ever federal detective force, long before the FBI. (The Secret Service still investigates counterfeiters; it did not

take on presidential bodyguard duty fulltime until after the 1901 assassination of William McKinley.)

Hiram C. Whitley was its second chief and a genuine innovator. During his tenure, which began in 1869, the Secret Service instituted a written code of conduct, developed files on criminals, photos included — and authorized the first Secret Service badges.

Whitley busted not only counterfeiters but also smugglers of cigars, liquor and diamonds in New York. Long before J. Edgar Hoover’s 10 Most Wanted, Whitley manipulated the press with juicy leaks and colorful tales of his agents’ exploits.

Whitley’s finest hour was the Secret Service infiltration of the Ku Klux Klan.

At the special request of the Justice Department, his disguised operatives fanned out across the South, gathering intelligence — often with the aid of African Americans — that helped bring white terrorists to justice. The crackdown enabled black voters to participate freely in the 1872 elections.

Whitley boasted lavishly of this noble effort, yet he was hardly noble by nature.

A teenage runaway whose pre-Civil War résumé included fraudulent pawnbroking in Massachusetts and kidnapping fugitive slaves in Kansas, he had served during the war as a hit man for the Union army in New Orleans, dispatching criminals and Confederate infiltrators with no questions asked.

In short, for Whitley, law enforcement and covert operations were more of an adventure than a mission — and the ends always justified the means. Even his first Klan-fighting job, a special assignment in Georgia in 1868 prior to his Secret Service tenure, was marred by credible allegations that he had tortured a black witness.

Confronted after the war about his slave-catching past, Whitley unapologetically argued that he had simply been obeying the Fugitive Slave Law. In due course, Whitley found himself hauled before Congress to answer charges that his men were pocketing contraband and otherwise abusing their power. Some criticism was politically motivated; Southerners and their Northern sympathizers despised Whitley’s covert war on the Klan. But there was more than a little truth to the charges.

As his dirty trick on behalf of the Williamses showed, Whitley relished intrigue for its own sake. By the mid1870s, even his superiors at the Treasury Department thought that the Secret Service and its formerly useful boss had gotten out of control.

Whitley’s downfall came in 1874, when his men became entangled in a bizarre conspiracy to frame opponents of the District of Columbia’s pro-Grant government for the theft of documents from a government strongbox. The Safe Burglary Case, as it was known, was perhaps the first domestic intelligence scandal in U.S. history, eerily similar to Watergate. Though Whitley’s precise role was never clarified, he was forced to resign and faced a federal trial — which ended in a hung jury.

Whitley left the capital and moved to Emporia, Kan., where he ran a successful hotel and built an opera house. He died at the age of 84 in 1919, a man of sizable wealth but unwarranted obscurity.

For today’s far different Secret Service, and its now-former director, Julia Pierson, her predecessor’s rise and fall does offer one possibly comforting moral: There is life after Washington.

The hard choices in covering news

W

e’ve come under some criticism recently for our coverage of the death of former Santa Fe police officer Ben Chavarria and our failure to cover the People’s Climate March here in Santa Fe on Sept. 20. Let me take each one at a time.

In the lead of our Sept. 16 story about Chavarria’s death in a motorcycle accident in El Paso, we noted that he had been under investigation for an alleged affiliation with a motorcycle gang, the Bandidos Motorcycle Club. The FBI has described the Bandidos as one of the Big Four outlaw motorcycle gangs. The police department under then Chief Ray Rael never released the results of the investigation but reassigned Chavarria to clerical and administrative duties. He was still with the department but no longer a police officer in any practical sense. Chavarria chose to resign instead, continuing to assert his innocence.

Lower in the story, we noted that Chavarria had helped start the police department’s Shop with a Cop program, which aids families in need during the holiday season. It does more than that. It builds trust for police officers in disadvantaged communities where suspicion of law enforcement is often the highest, and where police abuses are most likely to occur.

Programs like these also allow officers to see the people of these communities through humane lenses. It lets them get to know the young man they may later encounter on the street under different circumstances. And, perhaps, that spark of recognition between the two in that moment of crisis leads to dialogue rather than gunshots. This is community policing at its best.

Chavarria, the story also briefly noted, was on the regional board for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northern New Mexico, was president of the Santa Fe Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and was a strong advocate of Santa Fe’s Neighborhood Watch organization.

He also raised money for Special Olympics.

In an age when so many police officers want to live far from the cities they serve, Chavarria lived in the projects under a city program aimed at putting police officers in highcrime areas. He didn’t just live there, he became involved. He played basketball with the kids and became a neighbor people knew they could turn to.

“His loyalty to his community and the youth, as well as his work as a police officer, was outstanding,” wrote Santa Fe resident Terri Price in a Letter to the Editor. “Chavarria was an honest, upstanding man who believed in God, family and his community.”

A

s a young Native American, I am far too familiar with lack of access to health care.

Throughout my life, I have traveled extreme distances just to see a doctor, making it difficult to get much-needed care. This is especially true of dental care.

Last year, as a result of poor access to dental care, I suffered in pain for many months with a broken, infected tooth. As the pain became unbearable, I even tried pulling the tooth out myself.

Mine is a comLittlebear mon story Sanchez throughout rural America — especially on reservations.

In New Mexico, nearly 40 percent of children have untreated tooth decay.

At least three counties do not even have one dentist, leaving children vulnerable to the most preventable pain and infection.

Native American youth and those in foster care are severely impacted by dental shortages, as well.

Nationwide, roughly 50 percent of Native American youth live in federally designated dental shortage areas, and nearly 35 percent of children in foster care, like me, have severe oral health problems.

Although there are many challenges to getting adequate dental care in tribal and rural communities, I am proud that innovative Native American communities are leading the way in bringing care to those who need it most.

More than a decade ago, Alaska Native leaders developed a mid-level dental position called dental therapists who safely provide preventative and routine care as part of a dentist-led team.

In just 10 years, the dental therapists have increased access to dental care for over 40,000 people in communities across Alaska, many of whom had never even seen a dentist because of the difficulties in attracting dentists to rural areas.

New Mexico experiences those same difficulties in recruiting dentists to rural areas, so it is even more devastating that special-interest groups like the New Mexico Dental Association and American Dental Association (ADA) lobby to prevent the creation of mid-level providers who could provide children and the elderly with the quality health care that they desperately need.

When the ADA and others block rural and Native American communities from utilizing a safe method for dental care, more young people like me will have to live with pain and infection, preventing us from realizing our full potential.

Utilizing dental therapists in New Mexico is an important part of improving the well-being and confidence of Native youth, foster children, and all people in the state.

The success in Alaska demonstrates what creating a local solution to a local problem can do and Alaska Native communities are now seeing cavity-free children for the first time in nearly a century.

Let’s replicate that success in New Mexico for our rural and Native American communities.

Sunday, October 5, 2014

Our Opinions editor, Inez Russell Gomez, called Chavarria a “walking advertisement for community policing.” They served together on the Big Brothers Big Sisters regional board.

Whatever the investigation into Chavarria turned up, Rael didn’t feel it sufficient to fire him. In noting Chavarria’s sudden death, we should have provided readers a more balanced and complete look at his life and accomplishments.

Some people have also criticized us for not providing after-event coverage of the People’s Climate March on Saturday, Sept. 20.

“Hopefully, this was the result of an oversight and not reflective of the paper’s position on the urgency of addressing the causes of climate change, which poses a particular threat to our continued existence here in the Southwest,” wrote Santa Fe resident Richard Khanlian.

Others were far more sanctimonious. One person called it “reprehensible” that we didn’t cover it, or at least send a photographer.

Many of these writers failed to notice that we wrote a story in advance of the march and also ran My Views and letters in support of it, which helped inform readers of the march and draw them to it. We have also published dozens and dozens of stories about climate change over the past year, many of them on the front page and several of them directly related to the challenges we face here in the Southwest.

We have to make hard choices every day about how we’re going to deploy our resources to provide readers with a wide-ranging news report, while still focusing on our core mission of investigative and accountability journalism. The climate march was an important event, but it was not the only important event that day. In Española, Rio Arriba County officials were holding a health fair. It was an annual fair, but this one was different, coming in the wake of the June 8 shooting death of 16-year-old Victor Villalpando by an Española police officer.

Villalpando was an aspiring dancer with a loving family, mentors and people who believed in him. Many of those same people are bewildered now, trying understand why he pointed a toy cap gun one morning at police officers who were responding to a call of a person acting erratically. One of the officers fired a single, fatal shot into Villalpando’s chest.

In the weeks leading up to the shooting, Villalpando had displayed signs of mental distress — signs that were missed, as we noted in a July 13 story. Perhaps if his parents,

rains are formed early, beginning prenatally, and experiences from the day a child is born impact how they learn and succeed in the future. This fact is coming to the forefront of many New Mexicans’ minds as more and more research demonstrates the critical influence of early experiences on brain development and future success and earning potential. As our state takes a hard look at our future, we Baji Rankin must consider some glaring facts: Our educational outcomes are woefully below the national average, our poverty rates top national lists, and our economy is limping behind. The need for solutions is resounding.

Early childhood education and experiences are strong predictors of future success; high-quality early learning

investments pay off. New Mexico is ripe with missed opportunities to foster the creative, innovative and successful citizens we all hope to see grow up and take on leadership in our future. Our children are our biggest opportunity. But currently, 47 percent of our students do not graduate from high school. Almost half of our students have not received the support they need to succeed; these students deserve more.

Recently, the Albuquerque Journal released an important poll that underscored the call for public resources to invest in early childhood education and in New Mexico’s future. Now, we must decide how we take action.

One compelling approach I would like to throw into the proverbial ring is based off of an enigmatic town in Italy called Reggio Emilia. Reggio Emilia is a community that has become world-renowned for its early education practices. The community puts its young children first, recognizing them as important and imaginative citizens,

and from that practice they have seen stunning results. The Reggio approach to early learning is resourceful, influential and advanced. These early education practices encourage children to express their creativity and foster their imagination while they simultaneously learn important early skills in reading, math and science.

Dynamic and quality early education programs such as the Reggio Emilia approach ensure the intellectual and creative development of our children, which is key to their futures as lifelong learners and innovators. Now is the time for us to do our part and innovate something for New Mexico; our state’s future leaders, innovators and business owners depend on it. Local solutions matter, and access to inspired and engaging learning experiences in the early years will show increased competence in children’s later school experiences and far-reaching improvements in the future of our state, both economically and socially.

I encourage you to learn more about the Reggio approach by visiting the entirely free Wonder of Learning exhibit currently at the New Mexico Museum of National History and Science in Albuquerque until Nov. 30. The exhibit is an incredible resource for families, teachers, policymakers, business leaders, community members and anyone working with or interested in infants, toddlers and young children.

The exhibit serves as a gateway to the conversations we as a community can and must urgently have about how to move New Mexico forward. The solution is to put our young children first.

Rankin has worked in early childhood education for 40 years as a teacher of young children and of adults, a researcher, an organizer, a scholar, an administrator and an advocate.

MY VIEW: DIANE DENISH

MY VIEW: SHERRE STEPHENS

Voters must ask: ‘Is Governor is moving New Mexico forward state better now?’ F

T

he election of a new governor inevitably creates a sense of a new beginning.

A fresh start. New promises to be kept. That optimism existed in 2010 as Susana Martinez became our new governor.

Honestly, I had hoped to be leading that fresh start, but in 2010 the people chose the promises of Susana Martinez over mine. That’s how the system works.

Ronald Reagan established the tradition in 1980 by asking at the end of a term of office: “Are you better off now than you were four years ago?” While I‘m not used to wearing a Reagan “hat,” it’s a fair question to ask of the incumbent governor: Are New Mexicans better off now than four years ago? Have the promises made in 2010 been kept?

Let’s take a look.

In 2010, Martinez promised jobs and economic growth. New Mexico would be “open for business.” The strategy: 24 tax cuts.

Yet, we are the only state that has not recovered from the recession.

Worse, the Federal Reserve predicts New Mexico will be at the bottom of the list in job growth for the foreseeable future.

She also capped incentives for the successful film industry program and for two years suspended capital contributions made to New Mexico startups since 2001 from the Severance Tax Permanent Fund. The results? Year-after-year job losses and a declining population, including out-migration of talented entrepreneurs and the investment that goes with them.

Are those of us still here better off?

In 2010 she promised reforms to improve reading and math scores for fourth-graders. Education policy is in the hands of a still-unconfirmed secretary from out of state with no teaching experience. In private, the governor belittles the work teachers do. Since 2010, Standard Based Assessment scores have fallen: reading proficiency down 4 percent and math down 1.5 percent. Is education in our schools improved by the staged photos of the governor reading to kids?

In 2010, she promised us that the poverty that threatens our children would be alleviated, and child abuse — her signature issue — would be substantially reduced. Yet we are haunted by names like Omaree, Leland and 4-month old Izabella, raped and beaten to death. The governor’s secretary for the Children, Youth and Families Department said, “We are not about prevention.

We are about intervention,” and returned $6.6 million of budgeted funds to the general fund while the governor lamented CYFD’s “revolving door” of employees.

Then, the governor vetoed a proposed increase in the state-

wide minimum wage to $8.50 per hour. Her Human Services secretary declared, “No one is hungry in New MexDiane Denish ico,” but then had to eat her words. Now, those who are hungry face losing food stamps, while the census just reported that New Mexico is one of only three states in the country that had an increase in both the number and percentage of people living in poverty in the last year. That’s 22,000 more people living in poverty. Are New Mexico’s children and those 22,000 folks better off now?

While ineffective state agencies returned unspent money to the general fund, the administration has spent, conservatively, $25 million to recover less than $100,000 in overbillings from behavioral health agencies across the state, shutting down 15 long-established community organizations and giving contracts to an Arizona company.

These agencies provided treatment to some 80 percent of the mental health patients in New Mexico. Are our communities better off outsourcing mental health treatment programs?

Given the record of promises not kept in the first four years, how optimistic can we be about promises made for the next four? Maybe she can sell the helicopter this time.

Former Lt. Gov. Diane Denish was the Democratic candidate nominee for governor in 2010. Today, she works in the private and nonprofit sector to help improve New Mexico’s investment in early childhood and small business.

inally, after eight years of corruption and failed leadership under former Gov. Bill Richardson, we have a governor who is moving New Mexico forward.

Under Gov. Susana Martinez, our state is making positive progress, and while there remains work to do, we can see continued improvement. Take a look at the governor’s record on the budget, the economy and education, and you will see that she works every day for every New Mexican.

When Martinez was elected four years ago, she told us that she wouldn’t raise our taxes.

We believed her and she followed through on her promise, the sign of a true leader. She eliminated the $450 million deficit she inherited and did it without raising taxes.

She stood strong and didn’t give into the people telling her that she wouldn’t be able to erase the deficit without raising taxes or cutting classroom spending and health care for those in need. Now, for the last three years, New Mexico has had budget surpluses, and our savings account has doubled.

In contrast, her opponent, Gary King, didn’t hesitate to raise taxes on hardworking families when he was in the state Legislature. His tax increases on food, gas and medicine hurt struggling families.

A huge deficit isn’t the only

tion system that works. Gov. Martinez has given control of the classroom back to teachers and school districts by saying no to Washington, D.C.’s “one-size-fits-all” approach to education. New Mexico is also spending more on education than ever before and spending those dollars smarter.

These reforms are already proving they will work and take us forward. Graduation rates in New Mexico have improved at the fastest rate in the nation, and our state’s Hispanic students rank the best in the country on Advanced Placement tests.

King wants to unravel the governor’s reforms and give control of our schools back to

challenge Martinez inherited.

For far too long, New Mexico has been reliant on federal dollars. In Sherre fact, our state Stephens is the most reliant in the entire nation on dollars from Washington, D.C. When the recession hit, New Mexicans were impacted by both the economic downturn and federal budget cuts because of that dependence. So New Mexico continued to hurt, while the surrounding states recovered.

But things are already looking better because Gov. Martinez is working to diversify our economy. She is cutting taxes and helping small businesses grow, which is imperative for a strong private sector. Her bipartisan tax reform passed last year and was praised by both parties.

We are already seeing how the governor’s reforms are encouraging growth in the private sector. Martinez has created 32,000 private-sector jobs since January 2011, and the state’s export growth is first in the nation.

According to Ernst and Young, the lowest tax burden for manufacturing in the West is right here in New Mexico.

To keep moving forward, New Mexico needs an educa-

Washington, D.C. Gov. Martinez kept her promises to New Mexicans and worked hard to implement reforms that we desperately needed. It had been too long since we had seen any improvement. Now, our budget is balanced and our graduation rates have risen — the governor did it.

Who says that New Mexico can’t make advancement? We’ve already seen in the last four years that we don’t have to settle. With Gov. Susana Martinez as our leader, we can continue to see improvement and keep moving forward, not in reverse.

students value and use. Teachers say that the newspapers donated to their classrooms by the Newspapers in Education program (NIE) provide educational opportunities for a variety of subjects — not only current events and social studies, but also history, math, English and science.

Northern New Mexico’s NIE sponsors, the businesses listed below, are helping to create better students in the classroom today and better citizens in our communities tomorrow.

Editor: Rio Arriba A month to remember event merited story long-term care residents MY VIEW: SONDRA EVERHART

O

ctober is National LongTerm Care Residents’ Rights Month, a time to acknowledge the contributions many long-term care residents have made to better our community and to call attention to the rights of residents in longterm care facilities. State and federal laws and regulations guarantee that residents who make their home in all types of long-term care facilities maintain their rights as U.S. citizens and gain additional rights as residents. These include but are not limited to: individualized care, respect, dignity, the right to visitation, the right to privacy, the right to complain, and the right to be free of abuse, neglect and exploitation.

Long-term care is an issue that affects many of us; more than 40 percent of Americans who reach the age of 65 will spend some time in a nursing home during their remaining years. This year’s theme — Better Staffing: The Key to Better Care — was selected to educate residents, family members and the community on the impact of staffing in long-term care. Resident experiences and numerous studies, articles and government documents have identified the important relationship between direct-care staff and quality of care provided.

Residents’ Rights Month is also an opportunity to recognize our ombudsman volunteers who work to promote residents’ rights, assist residents with complaints and provide a voice to elders and adults with disabilities whose voices might otherwise go unheard. In New Mexico, there are 110 volunteer ombudsmen who dedicate their time to serve more than 12,000 long-term care residents in 340 licensed and unlicensed facilities statewide. Our ombudsmen resolve more than 4,400 complaints, offer more than 10,000 hours of service each year and ensure that our most vulnerable citizens never lose their voice.

The ombudsman program is

The annual Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta sets sail.

Transparency in health care costs proposed Think New Mexico urges changes to lower prices, improve care

By Patrick Malone The New Mexican

Someone facing surgery in Arizona can click on a single website to compare costs for the procedure at various hospitals and view how the hospitals rate in quality of care.

In California, hospitals and insurance companies are prohib-

ited from keeping secret the prices they’ve agreed to for medical services that determine how much patients pay. And in Maryland, everyone pays the same price for an appendectomy, regardless of whether they have insurance.

But in New Mexico, consumers often are left to guess what they’ll pay for medical services, and people who are uninsured can find themselves facing much larger bills than those who have coverage.

It’s just one in a litany of problems facing patients in a state that

ranks last in the nation in access and affordability of health care. A new report by Think New Mexico, an independent think tank based in Santa Fe, proposes a number of changes in state law to bring down prices and better arm consumers with information on health care costs.

In its annual report to be released Monday, Think New Mexico recommends public disclosure of hospital pricing and quality ratings, and universal pricing for all patients, regardless of whether

they’re insured.

The report’s cover art aptly captures the dilemma Think New Mexico wants to unravel. It depicts a doctor handcuffed and bound by cash-register tape at the bedside of a blindfolded patient. The familiar markings of a U.S. currency note frame the scene.

Fred Nathan, executive director of Think New Mexico, called the picture a visual translation of a quote in the report from Princeton

Archery class targets stress

Teacher is bow and hunter safety instructor for state

andy Neumann wants to share with others the feeling of liberation he gets from notching an arrow, drawing the bowstring and letting the arrow fly into a target, piercing it with a soft thump.

“When I am shooting, it’s a great relief from work,” he said. “It’s Zenlike. It is letting go.”

It’s easy to imagine Neumann — who is 6 feet tall with a stout build, graying hair and a salt-and-pepper mustache — effortlessly drawing a bow.

Now Neumann, a member of Archers de Santa Fe, a local club, will begin teaching archery classes for adults at the Genoveva Chavez Community Center. The first class is scheduled for Thursday evening.

The Chavez Center owns a set of compound bows — the kind with pulleys and cables to ease the draw process — and arrows that students will use for the course. Neumann said students are not allowed to bring their personal equipment to class.

He’ll also be providing a special backdrop to catch wayward arrows.

Neumann learned archery as a boy on hunting trips with his father and said he could draw a 40-pound compound bow without any help.

About 30 years ago, he moved to Santa Fe and joined the local archery group, which has a range on the city’s south side.

Neumann spent nearly 23 years as a firefighter with the Santa Fe Fire Department. He retired in 2010 after having reached the rank of assistant fire chief. Archery, he said, served as a calming activity for him and helped him cope with the stress that comes with a public safety job. He said he spent a few years in “true” retirement before he started to teach his passion to others across the city.

After retiring, he said, he met a man who crafted his own bows and arrows by hand, and Neumann learned to do that as well. He now teaches the craft to archery students.

Neumann also is a bow safety and hunter safety instructor for the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish. For the past several years, he has taught archery to students attending the Genoveva Chavez Community

Santa Fe is buzzing with activity this weekend, framed by two important, and very different, activities: The gathering of about 1,000 leaders of New Mexico’s energy industry and the thrilling spectacle of hot air balloons at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta.

The combination has left some hotels sold out, including La Fonda, and ballrooms and conference halls are filled with receptions, dinners, lunches and business meetings.

“This is the busiest week for answering telephone calls to the chamber,” said Simon Brackley, president and CEO of the Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce, about events and accommodations in Santa Fe due to the Balloon Fiesta.

Meanwhile, the New Mexico Oil and Gas Association starts its lowkey 86th annual meeting on Monday for the organization’s primary business meeting of the year.

Steve Henke, association president, said that about half of the attendees have already arrived in Santa Fe and were enjoying the city before the meetings begin. He said the meeting will have substance, fun and the Santa Fe ambience.

“For us, it’s a time of renewal, renewing acquaintances, conducting business, enjoying the scenery and have two golf tournaments,” he said.

Saturday’s golf tournament, sponsored by Halliburton, was held at Towa at Buffalo Thunder near Pojoaque. Sunday’s golf tourney, sponsored by Schlumberger, was scheduled for Las Campanas.

The association meeting is not open to the public or media, but public officials important to the association will attend and speak. Among those are Gov. Susana Martinez; New Mexico Environment Department Secretary Ryan Flynn; Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department Secretary David Martin; and State Land Commissioner Ray Powell, whose agency manages oil and gas royalties that are invested and provide significant support for public education.

Chuck Higgins is the businessman behind the initials at his combination confectionery and coffee shop at 130 Lincoln Ave. He also operates a store at his candy factory at Ninita Street and St. Francis Drive.

Higgins, 66, says his goal is to be several cuts above his best-known

rival for customers.

“If we see ourselves competing with Starbucks, we lack ambition,” he said one recent day as he sat in a comfortable chair in his downtown store.

He has been making candy for almost 35 years and counts it as one of his two skills. The other is an easy way with people, a plus for anyone trying to build and maintain a following in a specialty store.

In brief 31 female state inmates moved ALBUQUERQUE — New Mexico Department of Corrections officials announced Friday that they pulled female inmates from a halfway house named in a sexual-assault lawsuit.

Corrections spokeswoman Alex Tomlin said officials took 31 women out of the New Life Recovery House in Alamogordo and have launched an internal investigation.

Three women have sued a motel owner and the director of the halfway house, saying they were repeatedly sexually assaulted at work and threatened with being sent back to prison when they complained.

The women say they were assigned by the halfway house’s director to work at a nearby Super 8 Motel where they were harassed, subjected to lewd conduct and inappropriately touched by the owner. Previous random inspections of the facility found no wrongdoing, Tomlin said. The owner of the house declined to comment.

Motel owner Victor Chevdawala, who is named in the lawsuit, also declined to comment.

Teacher board settles with ex-chairman ALBUQUERQUE — A New Mexico state government retirement board has paid its former chairman $125,000 for his legal expenses in defending himself in an investment scandal.

The Albuquerque Journal reports that the payment to Bruce Malott settles a lawsuit that Malott filed two years ago when the Educational Retirement Board refused to pay his attorney fees.

The board based its action at the time on an attorney general’s opinion and because Malott was also represented by lawyers hired by the state.

The board oversees a pension fund for working and retired teachers.

Salazar was found with clothing, candy and a energy drink, all worth about $118. u Someone broke a Plexiglas window out of the back door and stole a shop vac out of an unoccupied residence in the 200 block of East Coronado Road sometime between Sept. 29 and Oct. 2. u Nicole Montano, 31, of Santa Fe was arrested on a charge of driving with a revoked license after a crash Friday at Siringo Road and Calle Resolana. Montano was also required to have an interlock device installed in her vehicle and did not, according to a police report.

The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office took the following report: u Reynaldo Corado-Medina, 22, of Santa Fe was arrested on a charge of driving with a revoked license Friday at Siler and Industrial roads.

FUNERAL SERVICES & MEMORIALS HOWARD JOHN BAUMGARTEL III

Howard John Baumgartel III took his last breath at the end of a beautiful September day filled by the love of his family and friends. John was born on February 1, 1948. His brief and courageous battle with cancer is over. John was a man of grace, a man of honor, and, as his friend and colleague so aptly stated "John was, quite simply, the finest man I ever knew."

John was many things, but most of all he was a contribution. John obtained his Master’s degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Michigan. You could always hear John say ’Go Blue’ as he walked through any airport and saw a fellow Wolverine. He worked for Union Carbide in Buffalo, NY before moving to Santa Fe, starting M&E Engineering with his partner, Tom Cummins. John did the mechanical and electrical design on countless buildings throughout New Mexico and southern Colorado-- including New Mexico’s original State Library, Palace of the Governors, Santa Fe Opera, and St. John’s College. John did environmental work in the 1970’s-- making a difference to keep buildings healthy for the people living and working in them. John was committed to protecting the earth, resources and natural beauty. He took a passionate stand for nonviolent conflict resolution all of his life.

John’s love of life was evident in everything he did. His most special moments were sailing, and spending time with his family and lifelong friends on his beloved Higgins Lake, Michigan, or flyfishing on the Tarryall River, Colorado. John loved music. He could be found mowing a field with headphones in his ears, or sitting at his desk listening to Eric Clapton, John Lee Hooker, Bonnie Raitt, Art Farmer, or the Rolling Stones. He saw the Beatles, live, in 1965. When the music started, John was ready to dance.

John shared all that he loved unselfishly with those he held dear--his children, his professional colleagues, his friends--and especially his grandchildren whom he always had time for.

John will be deeply missed by his loving wife Carol; sister Mona and her husband John DeBeer; his brother Tom and his wife Joyce Whelchel; daughter Elaine Baumgartel; son Jeremiah Baumgartel and his wife Sara; Carol’s son Croft and his wife Stephanie Elsaesser, Carol’s son Niko Alley; and Carol’s son Shaylor Alley and his partner Kate. John is also survived by his grandchildren Madeleine, Walker, Cruz, and Soren Alley; Caven, Caden, and Tate Elsaesser; and Clara Baumgartel. In addition, he is survived by his niece Sylvie Baumgartel, and his nephew Duke Baumgartel; his many dear friends and colleagues including Jerry Watts, Ann Quarles, Michel Fidel, Tom and Deb Cummins, and Michael Huvane. His special hiking partners, Belle and Murphy, are lost without him.

A special thanks goes to his team of doctors at the UNM Cancer Center and UNM Hospital where his care was extraordinary.

Donations in John’s name can be made to Sierra Club or Higgins Lake Foundation.

A memorial for John will be held Saturday, October 25th, in the Great Hall of St. John’s College, Santa Fe, at 3:30pm.

WALTER WOLFGANG ROTHSCHILD RALPH PERKINS JR. 10-5-61~12-12-95 Happy 53rd Birthday

Walter Wolfgang Rothschild was born in Constance, Germany in 1932, son of Alfred Rothschild and Fanny Wolf Rothschild. He and his family immigrated to the United States in during World War II. Walter received his bachelor and law degrees from the University of Iowa in 1954 and 1957, respectively. Prior to being appointed in 1987 to the bench in the First District of Iowa, he worked as a general practice attorney in Waterloo, Iowa, as general counsel for the Iowa State Tax Commission, and as a judicial hospitalization referee and juvenile court referee. He was a member of the Iowa State and Black Hawk County Bar Associations and the Iowa Judges Association.

After moving to Santa Fe, New Mexico in 2000, Walter returned many summers to Waterloo to serve as a senior judge.

Walter is survived by his loving wife Supawadee Jasmine Arthon, a native of Thailand and a naturalized U.S. citizen.

He passed away at his home in Santa Fe on September 28, 2014 after a brief illness.

Walter was a serious and reserved man, but he had a dry wit and always loved a good joke. He enjoyed tennis for many years and later developed an interest in swimming. He was surrounded by his loving wife and friends at the time of his passing.

A memorial service was held at 1 p.m. at the McGee Memorial Chapel in Santa Fe on September 30, 2014.

C-3

Approach: Used to operate eatery in Las Lunas before S.F. shop Continued from Page C-1 lifetime of starting businesses mostly built around candy.

After trying everything from selling cars to managing an apartment complex, he graduated from what is now Minnesota State University, Mankato, with a degree in marketing.

Soon after, Higgins found his life’s work. He set up shop at a Renaissance festival in Minnesota to try to sell what he calls “my signature peanut rolls.” Customer response was so strong that he says he had a hard time keeping up with demand.

Higgins branched out to state fairs and other events, such as the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota.

He also expanded his offer-

ings, notably with caramel apples.

For years, he operated from New Orleans and then Little Rock, Ark. His life changed 20 years ago when he landed a 15-foot vendor space at the New Mexico State Fair.

Cramped into what didn’t seem to be a promising location, he spent 18 days making and selling his caramel apples.

Fairgoers found their way to his stand, and they couldn’t get enough of his apples.

“For whatever reason, it went nuts,” Higgins said.

He ran a restaurant in Los Lunas for a couple of years, but the franchise competition ended that venture, he said.

In 2001, Higgins bought “a beat-up adobe house” in a resi-

dential zone at Ninita and St. Francis Drive. He transformed it into his candy factory and first store.

One important step was gaining city approval for a commercial kitchen. He made a bolder move by obtaining a variance from the state Health Department that allowed customers to bring their dogs into his store.

His consumer-friendly moves shined a bit more attention on his products. Almost all his candy is handmade at his factory. The main exception is the sugar-free items.

Higgins makes his candies with all-natural ingredients. His stores sell truffles, chile pecan brittle and maple fudge, distinctive because real maple syrup is part of the recipe. Traditionalists will find plenty of chocolate

Almost all Chuck Higgins’ candy is handmade at his factory. fudge with exotic twists. Higgins’ fudge creations include chocolate pecan, chocolate chile, chocolate raspberry and chocolate chipotle raspberry.

Fifteen percent of the sales on fudge go to Santa Fe’s Food Depot, a nonprofit organization with the mission of ending hunger in Northern New Mexico.

“I believe in giving back to the community,” he said. “I am also impressed with their ability

to provide four meals for one dollar.”

He looks back on his life of taking chances and considers himself fortunate to be making a living by selling espressos, almond toffee and caramel corn.

Higgins had polio as a toddler in the 1940s and a spinal fusion in his early teens.

The back ailment made him ineligible for the draft during the Vietnam War, something that still makes him feel a little guilty. Higgins couldn’t fight back tears as he talked about seeing a replica of The Wall that contains the names of more than 58,000 Americans who died in Vietnam.

Higgins says life worked out well for him, despite sicknesses and injuries in boyhood. He is gay, something he announced in

1980, even before he launched his businesses.

The climate toward gay people was not so accommodating in some places he’s lived, such as Arkansas. But, he says, the world has changed for the better, becoming more tolerant and less judgmental.

At an age when many people retire or wish they could, Higgins says working and taking chances by expanding to a second location suit him.

Making candy is what he’s good at. And as it turned out, he’s made a living with that talent.

Health: Think tank’s report paints dismal picture in New Mexico Continued from Page C-1 University economist Uwe Reinhardt, who likens the opaque pricing of health care in America to shopping blindfolded in a department store, only to wait months for an incomprehensible statement that concludes with, “Pay this amount.”

“Except that it is actually worse than that, because in the health care market, you are usually shopping for essential goods and services, like a pacemaker, not a pair of jeans,” says the report, “Making Health Care More Affordable

by Increasing Transparency and Ending Price Discrimination.”

The report paints a dismal picture of the health care landscape in New Mexico.

Between 1980 and 2009, the amount New Mexicans spent on health care increased from about 6 percent to about 17 percent of their earnings, and it is expected to rise higher in the years ahead. New Mexico earned a grade of “F” from the Health Care Incentives Improvement Institute for its poor health care pricing transparency. New Mexico has a provider shortage that affects nearly every county. Doctors here are paid 13 percent less than the national average. The report says that could contribute to the shortage.

“Today New Mexico’s health care

system bankrupts families, burdens employers and taxpayers, strains hospitals and health care providers, and wastes one out of every three dollars,” the report said. “The time has come for reforms that will reorient the system toward providing high-quality health care that New Mexicans can afford.”

Think New Mexico identified problems that its researchers determined are driving the high cost of medical care in the state.

The report points to examples of policy shifts in New Mexico and elsewhere that Think New Mexico says could hold solutions.

For example, the report spotlights gaping variations in the prices from one hospital to the next for the same procedure.

Treating a blood infection at Holy Cross Hospital in Taos resulted in a bill of $19,556, while a patient with the same diagnosis at Alta Vista Regional Hospital in Las Vegas faced $72,346 in charges, according to 2012 data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service. Meanwhile, the actual cost of providing care for that diagnosis at either hospital ranged from about $12,000 to $16,000.

Patients with commercial insurance almost always pay less than the sticker price for medical services because their insurers negotiate rates with hos-

pitals. But uninsured patients can face eye-popping bills for the full rate. What they can’t pay, hospitals sometimes forgive. Those losses, which tend to be proportional to how high hospitals set their rates, make up a hospital’s uncompensated care, which in turn hospitals cite as proof of their charitable giving.

Think New Mexico’s report recounts the story of Embudo organic farmer David Rigsby, who went uninsured for about 20 years beginning in the 1990s.

His story first appeared in The New Mexican, along with analysis of federal data that showed New Mexico hospitals charge the patients they admit on average 547 percent of the Medicare rate of reimbursement, which by law is intended to reflect the actual cost of performing medical services.

After doggedly studying how hospitals develop their pricing, Rigsby challenged medical charges for a hernia operation and colonoscopy that amounted to four times more than the $2,400 the federal government says it cost the hospital to perform the procedures. Ultimately, the hospital walked away from a portion of the amount it had billed Rigsby, but not before threatening to nearly double the charge by sending the bill to a collections company.

To close the cost divide between

people with insurance and those without it, Think New Mexico proposes a change in the law that would require hospitals in the state to develop a single price schedule for their procedures that applied to all patients, regardless of whether they are insured.

Patients who are financially unable to pay their bills would still be eligible for discounts based on the plan the think tank envisions.

Under the proposal, the state would seek a waiver from the federal government so that Medicare and Medicaid would pay the same rates as privately insured and uninsured patients in New Mexico.

The recommendations also include requiring hospitals or insurers to disclose health care pricing and payment information to the New Mexico Department of Health so that it could be posted online, along with quality indicators, such as hospitals’ mortality and infection rates.

“As far as possible, the prices should be inclusive (i.e. include facility fees, physician fees and test costs) and be bundled by procedure so patients can easily interpret and understand the information,” the report recommends.

These recommendations would require a new law prohibiting “gag clauses” in contracts between insurers and health care providers. The provi-

sion not to publicly disclose terms of the pricing agreements between hospitals and insurance companies is common.

“Once gag clauses are outlawed in New Mexico, insurers and health care providers can begin to make their pricing information available to patients,” the report said.

How lawmakers and stakeholders such as the insurance industry and hospital organizations will react to the report’s recommendations remains to be seen, because it has not yet been released to them. But Nathan said he hopes the Legislature will consider adopting the recommendations in the next session.

“The status quo is not an option.

If New Mexico health care spending continues to grow at a pace that far outstrips the overall economy, employers and insurers will be forced to continue shifting costs onto individuals and families,” the report concluded.

“The higher their costs, the more likely they are to skip essential medical care or wait to see the doctor until illnesses are advanced and more difficult to treat. The end result will be a sicker, poorer state.”

If there is a surge of visitors from the Balloon Fiesta, give credit to David Carr of the city’s convention and visitors bureau.

He said there has always been some spillover tourism from Albuquerque to Santa Fe, but this year, the city went out of its way to encourage Balloon Fiesta-goers to spend a day or more in Santa Fe. The city printed 45,000 handouts to give fiesta-goers to entice them to visit Santa Fe with specials and giveaways.

At several vendors and shops, special efforts were made to lure Balloon Fiesta attendees, such as Toshi Sanchez, gallery director at the Chuck Jones Gallery, putting balloon-themed art in the display window on Palace Avenue.

At Galerie Zuger, on San Francisco Street, gallery manager John Goekler brought in nature artist Adam Stewart to display his work and methods for visitors to see, this time using foil paint.

Around late afternoon Saturday, vendors of art, jewelry and food around the Plaza were still hoping that there would be more business for the day.

Most were waiting for the tour buses that had taken tourists to the Balloon Fiesta early in the morning, and were expected to

be returning shortly.

For many shops, the summer selling season had long gone, but, “It’s never really a bad time here,” said Susan De Gore of the Touchstone Gallery. Cliff Mills, a longtime jewelry vendor on the Plaza, suggested the city save its money on advertising Santa Fe, because there are more and more tourists all the time.

The association meeting continues into Tuesday, when the group will raffle off an American Oilman Tribute Edition Rifle, a .44 caliber that carries 10 rounds that retails for $1,450.

The gathering adjourns following elections of officers, adoption of the association budget, and performance by comedian Greg Hahn.

Archery: Beginning skills taught Continued from Page C-1 ing techniques.

Many beginners, Neumann said, make the mistake of gripping the bow in a clenched fist in the same way people shake hands or hold a briefcase. But such a grip, he said, locks the elbow, torques the bow out of position and puts the forearm in danger of being slapped by the bow string. The correct stance involves a looser hold on the bow with the fingers unlocked.

He’ll also stress good posture to avoid shoulder injuries and show students where to place their feet while shooting.

Neumann said the classes won’t require any previous archery experience.“We start from the ground up,” he said.

“And we build through the entire body to get the perfect shot. To start out, all you can do is the best you can. And with proper form, you can do a lot.”

The class can accommodate 15 people, and as of Friday afternoon, there were a couple of

spots still available. Neumann said if the class is popular, he will work with the city of Santa Fe to offer it again.

He said he’s not a medical professional, “just a parent who studied CPR.” The Santa Fe Police Department confirmed that it did receive a call about a infant with a choking problem at Santa Fe Place mall and an ambulance was sent to the mall, but by the time paramedics arrived, the infant was OK, but the child was taken to the hospital as a precaution.

Dear Parents and Employees: In 1988, the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response (AHERA) was signed into law by President Reagan. Since the enactment of AHERA, all schools nationwide were required to take comprehensive action relative to accredited inspectors, the assessment of conditions, potential disturbances of asbestos materials and the posing of warning labels.

The Santa Fe Public School District has completed inspections necessary for the District to be in compliance with AHERA. Some materials that remain have yellow warning labels posted. In the course of their work, workers may disturb asbestos-containing materials. Maintenance workers have been advised that disturbance of these asbestos materials may result in potential health risk if proper pre-cautions are not taken.The District has Operations and Maintenance Procedures and Management Plans which are located at each school and at the Building and Grounds facility for your viewing.The School District has an ongoing program for the removal of asbestos in most of the schools and will continue to do as needed.

See the balloons, you will Annual Albuquerque fiesta sails into town The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — The mass ascension of hundreds of hot air balloons above Albuquerque went off without a hitch Saturday morning.

Pilots began launching shortly after 7 a.m. at the annual Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta and landed safely around the city a few hours later, authorities said.

This year’s colorful balloons include one shaped like the head of Yoda and another like Darth Vader from Star Wars.

Organizers have equipped all 550 pilots with tablet computers capable of running a mapping application that will enable them to steer clear of the many restricted areas or prohibited zones like airport flight paths, the zoo and other locations.

The city has grown exponentially since the first fiesta more than 40 years ago, making flying and landing more challenging.

Last year, three people were seriously injured in separate incidents at the fiesta. A 61-yearold woman suffered a broken leg on the event’s first day when she was a passenger in a balloon that made a hard landing on a golf course.

Five days later, a balloon pilot and his passenger were hurt when their balloon struck power lines and fell 40 feet.

“That was a miracle in itself,” said Sisley of the potential early-phase drug development trial. “We had to hurdle four different obstacles to get to a point where we could actually research. It was a big achievement, and we were really close to getting implemented.”

She would study five strains of marijuana that would be smoked or vaporized and inhaled by 70 veterans. The goal is to develop a marijuana drug in plant form approved by the Food and Drug Administration. It would be the first and only randomized controlled trial in the country looking at marijuana in treating post-traumatic stress disorder.

Nevada’s state and federal lawmakers have been working to bring medical marijuana researcher Dr. Sue Sisley to the university to conduct a study on the safety and efficacy of marijuana on veterans with chronic and treatmentresistant post-traumatic stress disorder.

While the study would be financially supported by sponsors and not receive federal money, it has received all the federal approvals, said Sisley, who has been working on

TATUM — A southeastern New Mexico school district has banned students from having cellphones after officials say bullying comments were made on social media.

The Hobbs News-Sun reports that Tatum Municipal Schools Superintendent Buddy Little announced Thursday students won’t be allowed to carry cellphones on campus due to anonymous comments made on the Yik Yak app.

Little says some students complained to officials and administrators started monitoring the site. He says officials found cases of bullying and comments directed at staff.

Students had been allowed to carry cellphones at school as long as they did not have them out during class time.

No matter how unfair a teacher might clear that bar, always. From what I gather,

they were typical in that regard. The issue was a child’s character, not his or her accomplishments.

Attendance at high school reunions should be mandatory because that’s where one discovers, or should, that grades don’t really matter that much. Sometimes, the really successful person didn’t make outstanding grades and the person who made outstanding grades has led a less than outstanding life. One comes away from a high school reunion less impressed with a former classmate’s accomplishments as with how he or she treats other people. You want to reconnect, not because the individual in question is a high-dollar CEO but because he/she is a genuinely nice person.

Parents who descend on their kids’ schools with torches and pitchforks have lost a proper perspective, if they ever had one in the first place. The raising of a child should be a joy. They’re having no fun at all. They’re all stressed out, nearly all of the time, and they just don’t get it. They are their own worst enemies.

Poll: Parents concerned about youth football

By Kurt Voigt The Associated Press

Parents are worried about their children playing football, but most haven’t decided to keep their kids from putting on a helmet and stepping onto the field.

According to an Associated Press-GfK poll, nearly half of parents said they’re not comfortable letting their child play football amid growing uncertainty about the long-term impact of concussions.

In the poll, 44 percent of parents weren’t comfortable with their child playing football. The same percentage was uncomfortable with ice hockey, and 45 percent were uncomfortable with participation in wrestling.

Only 5 percent, though, said they have discouraged their child from playing in the last two years as concern over head injuries has increased at all levels of the game.

The majority of parents said they are comfortable with participation in a host of other sports — including swimming, track and field, basketball, soccer, baseball and softball, among others.

The AP-GfK poll was conducted from July 24-28. It included interviews with 1,044 adults and has a sampling error of plus or minus 3.4 percentage points.

The parents’ concern comes as several high-profile lawsuits have challenged how concussions have been addressed in pro and college sports.

Youth and high school programs have increased training available for coaches, and helmet companies are releasing new designs with the hope that they reduce the force of impact. But research is murky about whether or not they will be effective.

Participation statistics also show only a slight decline in the overall number of high school students playing football.

According to the National Federation of State High School Associations, nearly 1.1 million students played 11-man football during the 2012-13 school year.

The number was down approximately 10,000 from the year before and more than 20,000 since 2009-08.

NATURE HIKE AT SANTA FE CANYON PRESERVE: Robert Martin, The Nature Conservancy’s stewardship ecologist, will lead a hike and give participants an overview and historical perspective of the preserve, which opened in 2002; 1 to 2:30 p.m. near the intersection of Upper Canyon Road and Cerro Gordo Road.

The first few weeks of school crushed me.

The morning logistics, the exhausted, emotional children, the after-school activities that seemed to stretch longer into the evening than last year. And my boys seemed to be hungrier and hungrier. They came home from school and headed straight for the fridge. They were the poster children for “hangry” when they returned home after sports. I had been warned that this day would come, but I couldn’t feed them fast enough.

In response, I dredged up the pressure cooker that a family friend had given me as a wedding present with a note saying it would help me run an efficient household. At the time, I laughed — and stuck it in the storage room to collect dust for 18 years. I’m not sure why I saved it, but, boy, am I glad I did, because now I am desperate for ways to run an efficient household. I’m on Night 7 of the pressure-cooking experiment, and I have a feeling this little machine is going to save me.

What’s so impressive about a pressure cooker?

A pressure cooker cooks food fast — generally in a third or less of the time it takes other cooking methods. Don’t believe me? Last night’s risotto took seven minutes. It’s enough to make a parent swear off takeout.

Last winter I adopted the slow-cooker, but a slow-cooker is truly a tool for the highly organized cook: someone who can plan dinner in advance and get it brewing before school and work. The pressure cooker, which would sell so much better if it were more aptly named the “fast-cooker,” is a tool for the last-minute cook or someone whose mornings are too hectic for them to even think about dinner — in other words, most of us.

If you aren’t sold, just imagine walking in the door at 7 p.m. with a pork loin or a salmon steak in hand and witnessing it cook completely in five short minutes. That’s barely enough time to change your clothes and say hello to the kids.

Rice cooks in six minutes. Quinoa in one. Take that, boys. You and your hangry need for food now have been matched.

How it works A pressure cooker works by trapping hot steam in a pot, which builds pressure and cooks food quickly. I wondered whether lots of nutrients are lost in the high-pressure temperatures, but quickly found that they are not. A study in the Journal of Food Science confirmed that pressure-cooking broccoli preserved 90 percent of its vitamin C, while steaming preserved 78 percent and boiling only 66 percent. Because vitamins and minerals do not leach into cooking water in a pressure cooker, fewer nutrients are lost. Also, when foods are cooked for shorter periods of time, there is less time for nutrients to escape.

A wide variety of foods can be cooked in a pressure cooker, including soups, stews, vegetables and meats. Our favorites have been fish curry (cooked in five minutes) and pork (cooked in 15).

Shopping and cooking advice If you didn’t get one of these tools as a wedding present, America’s Test Kitchen evaluated many of the models on the market and suggests you look for these qualities in a pressure cooker:

The cure for the pressured parent

By Casey Seidenberg Special to The Washington Post

u Material: Stainless steel over aluminum.

Aluminum can convey a metallic taste. u Size: Eight quarts over six. A pressure cooker must not be filled more than two-thirds, so you will want the extra space. u Heat source: Stove top over electric for safety and the ability to quick-release by running the top under cold water. u Shape: Wide over tall. A wider container makes seeing and stirring the food easier, plus it allows more surface area for browning. Sides should be straight, without any metal overhang that can cause burning. u Bottom: A thick disc-shaped bottom. u Pressure indicator: One that can be seen from across the room.

A few other things I have learned u When adding greens such as spinach, arugula or herbs, stir them in at the end, after the pressure has been released, as they lose flavor if cooked under pressure. u The cooking time begins when pressure has been reached and not before. u Don’t unlock until the pressure releases. u If you have an old machine, make sure all the pieces are in working order. The rubber ring on the lid, for example, can grow brittle over time. u For recipes, check out the newly released cookbook Hip Pressure Cooking: Fast, Fresh, and Flavorful by Laura D.A. Pazzaglia, or look online.

Saturday, Oct. 11 My Little Pony, Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks

By Gerry O., 12 KIDS FIRST! critic

What an addition to the My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic franchise! This film has references to the first movie, a bit of story from the last season of the show and even all the little extra characters that My Little Pony fans love.

It is definitely a combination of adventure with a touch of comedy and a sprinkle of excitement all

wrapped up in a friendship sandwich. The adventure starts when a band performance is planned at Canterlot High. Kids can start bands and raise funds, and three very unusual girls turn it into a battle of the bands.

This film is just fantastic. Hasbro was smart to include a lot of little fun things from the shows that fans adore, including the beloved Derby Hooves pony, who is really never part of the story, just in the background for fun. The songs are great as well. We hear not just the classic My Little Pony

songs from the TV show. Instead, the music is very pop-like, which suits the story well. I imagine that sing-along coming to the fans shortly and being a smash hit. The show’s creators also connected to the first Equestria Girls movie, which I thought was perfect.

My favorite scene is when girls are having a sleepover at Pinkie Pie’s house. When Twilight gets out of bed and walks to the kitchen, she finds Pinkie’s older sister feeding her pet boulder. I love this scene because, in the show, there is an episode where

we meet this sister. So I thought having her in the movie is a great idea and so unexpected.

This film does not have anything parents should be worried about, and for very young kids who do not understand the ponies, they will enjoy the bright colors. I give this film 5 out of 5 stars for its original story, fantastic songs and those little characters that fans and Bronies love so much! If you want to see My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic, Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks, it came out in theaters Sept. 27.

RIVER CLEANUP: The Santa Fe Watershed Association, the city of Santa Fe and Santa Fe County are hosting a Hunter’s Moon Community River Cleanup from 9:30 a.m. to noon at De Vargas Park on West Alameda Street. This is an event for removing the awful accumulation of litter from our beloved Santa Fe River. Registration is from 9:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. Bags and equipment are provided. Enjoy the morning chill with hot drinks and baked goods donated by the local business community.

PEACE PETS: An animal rescue educational program from children at 10:30 a.m. at the Main Library, 145 Washington Ave., 955-6783; and at the South Side Branch Library, 2:30 to 3:30 p.m., 6599 Jaguar Drive; 955-4863.

Santa Fe Prep blanks Monte del Sol Five yellow cards doled out in physical match

By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

The curse is finally broken.

The Santa Fe Prep boys soccer team has not beat District 2A-AAAA rival Monte del Sol at the Municipal Recreation Complex in six years, but

that streak finally came to an end when the Blue Griffins blanked the Dragons 2-0 on Saturday afternoon.

“Even the year we played in the state championship [2010], we lost the match here,” Prep head coach Hersch Wilson said. “This is a big deal to finally win. It has been a curse.”

That means that no player on the Prep (11-2-1 overall, 3-0-1 2A-AAAA) roster has known what victory was

like at the MRC until Saturday.

“I’ve been with the program since eighth grade, and I haven’t won here, so to come here and leave with a win is huge for our season,” junior Sam Brill said.

But the win didn’t come without controversy.

The Blue Griffins got four yellow cards for four players, and Logan Taylor of Monte del Sol (7-6-2, 1-2-1) received a yellow card in the second

here comes a time when tunnel vision takes over. It has to.

When the alternative means running the risk of having someone’s padded glove find a seam in your defenses, it pays to cut the chit-chat and focus on the task at hand.

Such was the case just moments before Brandon Holmes left Caldera Room A and climbed through the

ropes at Buffalo Thunder Resort on Saturday night for a sold-out professional fight card dubbed “Fright Night.”

The headliner in the comain event that also featured Española’s Monica Lovato, Holmes went into his own little self-hseclusion as he prepared for his scheduled sixround bout with John Herrera.

Even his brother knew the drill.

“Yeah, I know that there comes a time before a fight

Los Angeles Dodgers’ Matt Kemp celebrates his home run against the St. Louis Cardinals during the eighth inning in Game 2 of the NL Division Series on Saturday in Los Angeles. MARK J. TERRILL/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES — Matt Kemp hit a goahead home run leading off the eighth inning, lifting the Los Angeles Dodgers over the St. Louis Cardinals 3-2 SatDodgers 3 urday night and evening their NL Division Series at Cardinals 2 a game apiece.

Kemp practically skipped down the first base line, appearing to coax the ball fair as it sailed inside the foul pole and into the lower left field seats while the crowd of 54,599 erupted in cheers. Bubbles percolated into the hot night air from a machine in the dugout that the Dodgers turn on to celebrate homers.

No one looked happier greeting Kemp in the dugout than J.P. Howell, who had served up a tying, two-run homer to Matt Carpenter

OXFORD, Miss. — Brushing aside a carnival-like atmosphere and Alabama’s potent defense, Mississippi quarterback Bo 11 Miss.

23 Wallace bounced around in the 3 Alabama 17 pocket and threw one perfect pass after another, willing the Rebels downfield in the fourth quarter.

Two touchdown passes and one stunning comeback later, No. 11 Mississippi had a 23-17 victory over No. 3 Alabama on Saturday and asserted itself as a true contender in the Southeastern Conference Western Division.

“We worked hard for this moment,” said Ole Miss receiver Laquon Treadwell, who caught a touchdown pass. “And as [the final seconds] happened, I thought ‘This isn’t the end of it all. It’s just the beginning.’ ” Wallace threw for 251 yards and three touchdowns, including a goahead 10-yarder to Jaylen Walton with 2:54 remaining.

It capped a methodical, nearly flawless fourth quarter for the Rebels (5-0, 2-0 SEC), who have won five games to start the season for the first time since 1962 and ended a 10-game losing streak against the Tide.

When it was over, drinks flew into the air and students rushed the field in disbelief, celebrating what may be the biggest win for Ole Miss in a generation. It also capped a stunning day for the Magnolia State — No. 12 Mississippi State beat No. 6 Texas A&M 48-31 earlier Saturday in Starkville.

The Rebels trailed 17-10 midway through the fourth quarter, with a brutally efficient Alabama offense controlling the tempo. But Ole Miss pulled even on Wallace’s 34-yard touchdown pass to Vince Sanders with 5:29 remaining.

PREP ROUNDUP

Prep beats Desert Academy in invitational The New Mexican

The championship match in the Lady Braves Invitational at Santa Fe Indian School ended up being a District 2AAA preview.

S.F. Prep 3 Santa Fe Prep and Desert Academy both D. Academy 1 dispatched McCurdy early on Saturday to meet in the title game, which Prep won 19-25, 25-23, 25-13, 25-20.

The two teams will see each other again for the district opener on Tuesday.

Prep (6-6) middle hitter Gressia Burrola returned after suffering a concussion earlier in the season, and her mere presence in the middle made a big difference.

“Our blocks were part of it,” Prep head coach Kiran Bhakta said. “I think that frustrated them a little bit.”

Desert Academy (6-5) got the better of the Blue Griffins in the first game, but it started to lose momentum late in the second game and couldn’t get out of the slump.

“We had a hard time coming back and just couldn’t put it away,” said Desert Academy head coach Natalie Passalacqua. “We just have to stay up and learn to come back from losing.”

Desiray Anderson had 16 kills and eight assists for Prep in the championship match. Joy Maran six kill and nine assists while Bailey Harmon had three kills and four blocks.

Cassidy Hart had nine service points and 17 assists for the Lady Wildcats while Tori Heath added 20 kills and libero Amelia Linett had 31 digs.

ALBUQUERQUE ACADEMY 3, SANTA FE HIGH 0 The Lady Chargers barged into Toby Roybal Memorial Gymnasium and swept the Demonettes 25-21, 25-21, 25-15 on “Dig Pink” night.

Santa Fe High (9-4) was relaxed coming into this nondistrict match after getting swept by Rio Rancho and Rio Rancho Cleveland, but then doubt started to set in.

“We played with more confidence today, but I think we lost some confidence at certain points,” Santa Fe High head coach Sam Estrada said. “We have to be a little tougher-minded.”

Freshman Brandee Fulgenzi had nine kills and 11 digs, Isabella Christian-Padilla had 17 assists and Lindsay Varoz had 13 digs for Santa Fe High.

ESPAÑOLA VALLEY 3, ALBUQUERQUE DEL NORTE 0 The Lady Sundevils opened up the District 2AAAAA season with a clean 25-10, 25-16, 25-14 sweep of the Lady Knights.

Del Norte didn’t pose a big challenge in the first game, but then it started to make Española (9-2, 1-0) work a tad bit harder with some trickier shots.

“They were giving us a lot of easy balls, but then they adjusted,” Española head coach Damon Salazar said.

Elana Salazar had 14 kills, eight digs and

three aces to lead the Lady Sundevils while Kaitlyn Romero had 11 kills, five digs and three aces.

LOS ALAMOS 8, BERNALILLO 0 Catie McDonald had four goals to lead the Lady Hilltoppers past the Lady Spartans in a District 2AAAAA shutout.

“I think she’s the best forward in the state, no matter what class,” Los Alamos head coach AJ Herrera said.

Los Alamos (9-6, 2-0) only had a 1-0 lead at halftime, but then the goals started pouring.

“The flood gates just opened after that,” Herrera said.

Emily Hopkins had two goals and Abby Schmalz and Charlotte Leonard each had one.

Holmes: Awarded majority decision win

Continued from Page D-1 where I don’t really need to lean in there and tell him anything,” said Patrick Holmes, Jr., another of the 10 fighters who filled the five-bout card before a decidedly pro-Holmes crowd.

“You kind of have to have tunnel vision when you get ready,” said Brandon Holmes after he took a six-round majority decision against Herrera. “If you don’t, that’s how you get hurt. Especially against a guy like that.”

Unknown to pretty much everyone until after the fight, Brandon Holmes was battling the effects of the flu. He said he felt light-headed during warmups but chose not to tell anyone about his condition — except the security detail at the Hilton resort.

“I knew I’d be going six rounds, so I really needed to focus,” Holmes said. “I’ve been known to have knockout power in both hands, but I didn’t have any pop when I was getting loose. I knew I’d have to work for it.”

His fight with Herrera was, quite simply, a marathon exchange of brutal jabs and combination shots that drew loud cheers from the crowd. Both fighters took — and delivered — a flurry of heavy hits.

“He took all my shots and stayed in there,” Holmes said. “Got to give him credit for that.”

One of the three judges scored it a 57-all draw while the other two had Holmes winning 59-55 and 58-56.

The main event didn’t start until 10:17 p.m. It was over by 10:18.

Lovato scored a comically fast technical knockout of trash-talking opponent Kristen Montaño, landing four crushing lefts to Montaño’s ear just a foot or two away from her own corner. Her manager threw in the towel before Lovato even broke a sweat — or most of the crowd felt like it got its money’s worth.

As the referee stepped in to put an end to it, the crowd hooted its displeasure at waiting more than three hours for a fight that lasted just 52 seconds.

“I heard she said she was going to come in here and smoke me,” Lovato said. “I came in here looking to get a little respect.”

Lovato said she fought angry — something she rarely does.

“I don’t fight with anger,” she said. “My friends say I can have pity on the people I fight, but I didn’t want to do that tonight.”

John Grimley Memorial Invitational

querque’s Cristian Cabral, a fighter approximately 13 years younger than Gallegos.

A schoolteacher by trade, Gallegos — who had his nickname “The Educator” stitched across the seat of his white trunks — recently returned from a four-year hiatus in the ring. He held his own for a while, but appeared to get tired in the middle rounds as Cabral battled back.

Gallegos dropped him in the first round, but Cabral insisted it was a head butt and not a punch that sent him to the canvas.

“He was head butting the whole fight,” Cabral said.

Forcing Gallegos to the ropes several times in the final three rounds, Cabral repeated blows had the sides of Gallegos’ trunks stained pink with blood.

The judges scored it 59-55, 58-55, 57-56 in Cabral’s favor.

Afterward he stood in the center of the ring and, while being interviewed for a live webcast that showed all of Saturday’s fights on the Internet, he called out fellow welterweight fighter Josh “Pitbull” Torres, who happened to be sitting 30 feet away in the VIP section of the ballroom.

“That’s next for me,” he said, pointing a glove at Torres.

Torres responded by standing and raising both arms, palms to the sky.

The first bout of the night never made it out of the first round, as Mexico’s Jose Osorio scored a TKO at the 2:55 mark, flooring Ron White three times along the way.

The second bout went to Holmes Jr. as he scored a unanimous decision against a much shorter and much less polished John Gonzales in four rounds. Standing about 5 inches taller, Holmes said it wasn’t so much the unorthodox style Gonzales had — he routinely crouched down and threw wild roundhouse rights or violent uppercuts that started from knee-level — but the fact that it took so long to figure out a proper strategy.

“He was just different,” Holmes said. “I got him down in the second round but it took a while to get a feel for what he was doing.”

Moments after the second knockdown, Gonzales got to his feet, shrugged his shoulders and smiled as he walked back to his corner.

Later in the fight, Holmes twice landed ferocious rights to Gonzales’ head that sent a mist of sweat and water flying across the ring. Both shots stumbled Gonzales, but neither was enough to finish him off.

Holmes was awarded a 39-34, 39-35, 40-34 win on the scorecards.

Swimming

Prep: Galindo bothered by physicality Continued from Page D-1 going to happen.”

Monte del Sol head coach Mazatl Galindo didn’t have a casual response to the physicality, and he thinks the physical play by the Blue Griffins in both matches went too far.

“I’m starting to get really, really tired of the whole physicality of things,” Galindo said.

“We are encouraged to play with class. This is one of the reasons why I don’t even know if I’m coming back. It’s deflating. I don’t understand why they have to be fouling over and over and over.”

Brill, who scored the second goal for Prep in the 79th min-

ute, defended the physicality and said none of it went too far.

“I thought we were all just really fired up for this match, and sometimes that leads to it, but none of it was malicious,” he said. “We were just all going for the ball.”

In fact, both he and Wilson believe it was Prep’s best defensive effort of the season, and the Blue Griffins have still only allowed one goal through four district matches.

“I thought everyone was going in for the tackle really hard, and we all got to the 50-50 balls that we needed to get to to be able to ensure the win,” Brill said.

The physicality is making

Galindo question if he wants to return to coaching. He voiced his concerns with the New Mexico Activities Association after senior midfielder Shalto Dascher was taken off the field in an ambulance when he was knocked unconscious in a nondistrict match at Taos on Sept. 13.

He doesn’t mind losing, but it’s getting hard to keep watching his players go down hard.

“I don’t really want to be part of something that is risking my kids,” Galindo said. “As a coach, I encourage them to do their best and give me 100 percent.

I’m looking out for the well being of my kids and the other kids. I have that mental impres-

sion of what took place in Taos, and I don’t want another coach to go through that. It’s just not fun.”

The two teams won’t see each other for the rest of the regular season, and now Prep has just two district matches left against St. Michael’s and Desert Academy. Now the Blue Griffins can worry about those matches and finally forget about the MRC curse.

“This was a pivotal match for our year because we know that if we beat Monte, that makes a big difference in how we look forward to the rest of the district,” Wilson said.

u St. Michael’s High School is looking for an assistant swimming coach for the 2014-15 season. For more information, call coach Elaine Pacheco at 231-4492.

Volleyball u Fort Marcy Complex is holding a co-ed and women’s volleyball league for the fall and winter. The season comprises a 10-match season with a single-elimination tournament.

NFL matchups

By Benjamin Hoffman The New York Times

RAVENS (3-1) AT COLTS (2-2)

BROWNS (1-2) AT TITANS (1-3)

Time: 11 a.m.

The Colts have quite a legacy to live up to in terms of quarterbacks, with Johnny Unitas in the Hall of Fame and Peyton Manning ready to join him a few years after he retires. Yet Andrew Luck, Indianapolis’ third-year star from Stanford, is off to such a productive start, he could rewrite the franchise’s record books. Luck has thrown for 1,305 yards and 13 touchdowns so far this season.

Manning, who holds the team record with 49 touchdowns in a season, never had more than 11 in the first four games of the season; Unitas, who set the standard for the modern passing game, never had more than 10.

Line: Colts by 3½.

Pick: COLTS

Time: 11 a.m.

Titans safety Bernard Pollard assessed his team, which is hoping to avoid a fourth consecutive loss: “I wouldn’t root for this team either, because we’re a team that comes out and shows greatness one time, and then we come out and drop an egg.”

Line: Titans by 1.

Pick: BROWNS

CARDINALS (3-0) AT BRONCOS (2-1) Time: 2:05 p.m.

No coaching staff is better equipped to shut down Peyton Manning than Arizona’s.

Coach Bruce Arians was Manning’s first NFL quarterback coach, and Tom Moore, Arians’ assistant head coach, was Manning’s longtime offensive coordinator. They helped Manning, a talented young quarterback, develop into the wildly gesticulating field general he is today.

That knowledge will help Arizona’s defense immensely as it tries to contain an explosive Denver offense, which has survived a rough stretch

by Demaryius Thomas by having Emmanuel Sanders step up as a favorite receiving target for Manning.

Line: Broncos by 8.

Pick: CARDINALS

BENGALS (3-0) AT PATRIOTS (2-2) Time: 6:30 p.m.

For regular human beings, 37 is considered relatively young. Professional football is different, though, and any time the 37-year-old Tom Brady looks less than spectacular, some will wonder if he can still compete at the top level.

This game should provide no respite — Cincinnati’s defense is among the best in the NFL, yielding just 11 points a game. New England’s patchwork offensive line has struggled to protect Brady.

Line: Bengals by 1½.

Pick: BENGALS

BEARS (2-2) AT PANTHERS (2-2) Time: 11 a.m.

Carolina will be without running backs DeAngelo Williams and Mike Tolbert.

Jonathan Stewart and Fozzy Whittaker are question marks.

That leaves the undrafted rookie Darrin Reaves as the best option to start at running back, which could greatly limit the team’s game plan.

Even Reaves seems a bit torn about the situation.

Line: Panthers by 2½.

Pick: BEARS

CHIEFS (2-2) AT 49ERS (2-2) Time: 2:25 p.m.

When Alex Smith plays against San Francisco, the story line invariably turns into his awkward demotion by the 49ers after he was injured in 2012. But Colin Kaepernick, who formerly reserved his video-game-worthy offensive skills for contests against Green Bay, is finally starting to open things up, and the focus should be on him. This season, Kaepernick has 187 rushing yards to go with his 912 passing yards, and he is looking every bit as versatile and exciting as Cam Newton or the distant memories of a healthy Robert Griffin III. Line: 49ers by 6½.

Pick: 49ERS

TEXANS (3-1) AT COWBOYS (3-1) Time: 11 a.m.

The Cowboys’ DeMarco Murray has rushed for 100 yards or more and at least one touchdown in each of his team’s four games. The only other players who have accomplished that are Jim Brown, O.J. Simpson and Emmitt Smith. The fragile Murray is the main cog in a Dallas offense that is leading the NFL with 165 rushing yards a game. He is averaging 24.8 carries a game, and as long as his body holds up, there is little question that he has the talent to continue the streak.

Line: Cowboys by 6.

Pick: COWBOYS

RAMS (1-2) AT EAGLES (3-1) Time: 11 a.m.

St. Louis is not going to make anyone forget its Greatest Show on Turf teams of the late 1990s, but the Rams appear to have found a couple of offensive building blocks in Brian Quick and Zac Stacy.

Austin Davis looked promising in Week 3, and given the team’s hard-hitting defense, the Rams could be expected to surprise some teams. But Philadelphia, playing at home and coming off a loss, will be ready.

Line: Eagles by 7.

Pick: EAGLES

FALCONS (2-2) AT GIANTS (2-2) Time: 11 a.m.

Larry Donnell, the Giants’ breakout star at tight end, had one regret in Week 4: He did not start himself on his fantasy team for a game in which he scored three touchdowns. Donnell will not make the same mistake again. But opposing defenses have most likely noticed that he has become Eli Manning’s favorite receiver, and they will try to make adjustments. That may not matter because Donnell’s game consists mostly of exploiting size matchups against defensive backs or speed matchups against linebackers.

Line: Giants by 4.

Pick: GIANTS

BUCCANEERS (1-3) AT SAINTS (1-3) Time: 11 a.m.

NFL players are generally good at putting a positive spin on things, so Junior Galette’s stunningly honest assessment of New Orleans’ play was unusual.

“You have to be realistic and know that we’re not as good as we thought we were,” Galette, a defensive captain, told reporters. “We have three quarters left, and we have to improve drastically.”

The Saints have allowed 396 yards a game, so he may have actually understated the case.

They will have a bit of a breather. Tampa Bay is unlikely to beat Drew Brees at home, even if the Buccaneers looked markedly improved with Mike Glennon at quarterback in Week 4.

Line: Saints by 10.

Pick: SAINTS

BILLS (2-2) AT LIONS (3-1) Time: 11 a.m.

Detroit’s tough defense had little trouble containing Aaron Rodgers and Eli Manning, so Kyle Orton, Buffalo’s new starting quarterback, might want to watch out. Making matters especially precarious for Orton, Detroit’s week was dominated by questions over Ndamukong Suh’s future with the team and a report that said he intended to leave as a free agent after the season.

The questioning seemed to rile Suh up, and an angry Suh is bad news for a backup quarterback.

Line: Lions by 7.

Pick: LIONS

JETS (1-3) AT CHARGERS (3-1) Time: 2:25 p.m.

San Diego has struggled to run the ball, but against the Jets, who have played well against the run, the Chargers are probably going to air it out anyway. Philip Rivers will do his best to guide the Chargers to their fourth consecutive win. Jets fans will be busy clamoring for Michael Vick, a 34-year-old quarterback whose last winning season was in 2011, to replace Geno Smith.

Line: Chargers by 7.

Pick: CHARGERS

STEELERS (2-2) AT JAGUARS (0-4) Time: 11 a.m.

As Clubber Lang, the boxer portrayed by Mr. T in Rocky III, said when asked to predict the outcome of an upcoming fight: “My prediction? Pain.”

Line: Steelers by 6½.

Pick: STEELERS

TOP 25 COLLEGE FOOTBALL

No. 12 Miss. State blasts No. 6 A&M The Associated Press

STARKVILLE, Miss. — Dak Prescott threw two touchdown passes, added three Tebowstyle TD 12 Miss. St. 48 runs, and Mis6 Texas A&M 31 sissippi State overwhelmed Texas A&M. The Bulldogs (5-0, 2-0 Southeastern Conference) jumped out to a 28-7 lead in the first half and never let Kenny Hill and the high-scoring Aggies (5-1, 2-1) get close enough to threaten.

Hill threw for 365 yards and four touchdowns, but had three passes picked off by linebacker Richie Brown, who matched a school record.

Prescott first plowed into the end zone for two short TDs and sealed it with an 11-yard quarterback draw that made it 48-17 in the fourth quarter. The junior was 19 for 25 for 264 yards and ran for 77 yards.

The Bulldogs showed beating LSU for the first time in 15 years a couple weeks ago was no fluke. They dominated A&M in almost every way.

Josh Robinson ran for 107 yards and two scores and linebacker Benardrick McKinney helped harass Hill.

NO. 25 TCU 37, NO. 4 OKLAHOMA 33 In Fort Worth, Texas, Paul Dawson returned an interception 41 yards for a touchdown, TCU made a huge fourth-and-1 stop with just over 3 minutes left and the Horned Frogs remained undefeated.

Oklahoma (4-1, 1-1 Big 12) had the ball after the two teams had three turnovers in a span of four plays — another interception by Trevor Knight between two fumbles by TCU. On fourth down from the TCU 22, Samaje Perine was stuffed by linebacker Marcus Mallett for no gain. Officials confirmed on a replay review that Perine, who had three TD runs in the game, was stopped short of a first down.

Dawson’s big pick for TCU (4-0, 1-0 Big 12) came with 14:12 left. He reached up with both hands to grab the ball and raced untouched for a score to make it 37-31.

NO. 1 FLORIDA STATE 43, WAKE FOREST 3 In Tallahassee, Fla., a lackluster effort from quarterback Jameis Winston and the Florida State offense allowed kicker Roberto Aguayo and the defense to star against Wake Forest.

Winston threw for 297 yards with a touchdown and an interception, and Aguayo kicked a career-high five field goals.

The reigning Lou Groza Award winner also set a school record with 21 consecutive field goals.

The Seminoles (5-0, 3-0) dominated the overmatched Demon Deacons (2-4, 0-2) and held them to 126 offensive yards, including 40 rushing.

Linebacker Reggie Northrup forced and recovered a fumble and ran it 31 yards for a touchdown that put Florida State up 30-3 in the third quarter.

Wake Forest quarterback John Wolford was held to

75 yards and a score for the Cowboys (4-1, 2-0 Big 12). Hill had 148 yards in kickoff returns and 46 yards in punt returns.

Daxx Garman passed for 271 yards and a touchdown.

Iowa State (1-4, 0-3) was held to 322 total yards.

Mississippi State quarterback Dak Prescott, right, pitches the ball to running back Josh Robinson during the first half of Saturday’s game against Texas A&M in Starkville, Miss.

JIM LYTLE/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

58 yards passing and an interception.

NO. 5 AUBURN 41, NO. 15 LSU 7 In Auburn, Ala., Nick Marshall passed for 207 yards, ran for 119 and accounted for four touchdowns to lead Auburn past LSU. Auburn (5-0, 2-0 Southeastern Conference) dominated from the start, with the 41 points matching its highest total in the rivalry.

LSU (4-2, 0-2), which turned to freshman quarterback Brandon Harris, has dropped its first two SEC games for the first time in coach Les Miles’ decade-long tenure. Harris completed 3 of 14 passes for 58 yards before getting replaced late in the third quarter by Anthony Jennings.

NO. 7 BAYLOR 28, TEXAS 7 In Austin, Texas, Shock Linwood ran for 148 yards and the clinching touchdown and Baylor overcame a rare off day by quarterback Bryce Petty and the nation’s No. 1 offense.

With Petty misfiring, the Bears (5-0, 2-0 Big 12) won with tough defense, two big plays on special teams and a power running game that wore down Texas (2-3, 1-1) in the second half.

Terrell Burt scored Baylor’s first touchdown with a 62-yard return after a blocked field goal in the first quarter. A fake punt in the third set up Petty’s touchdown pass to Antwan Goodley. Linwood put it away with a short touchdown run in the fourth.

NO. 9 NOTRE DAME 17, NO. 14 STANFORD 14 In South Bend, Ind., Everett Golson threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Ben Koyack in the corner of the end zone with 1:01 left and Notre Dame overcame two turnovers and two bungled snaps on field goals to beat Stanford in cold and rainy conditions.

Koyack caught the pass as he fell out of bounds and safety Jordan Richards dove to try to break it up on Notre Dame’s last chance on fourth-and-11.

The Fighting Irish improved to 5-0 for the third time since Lou Holtz left in 1996. The Cardinal (3-2) have two losses this early in the season for the first time since 2008.

Golson also threw a 17-yard touchdown pass and Notre Dame amassed 370 yards of total offense against the nation’s top defense.

NO. 13 GEORGIA 44, VANDERBILT 17 In Athens, Ga., Hutson Mason threw two touchdown passes to Chris Conley, Todd Gurley ran for 163 yards with two scores and Georgia beat Vanderbilt.

Georgia (4-1, 2-1 Southeastern Conference) used Gurley’s scoring runs of 4 and 14 yards and Mason’s first touchdown pass to Conley to take a 21-0 lead in the first quarter.

Gurley’s first touchdown run, a 5-yarder, was out of the wildcat formation. He added a 14-yarder later in the opening quarter for a 14-0 lead over overmatched Vanderbilt (1-4, 0-4).

NORTHWESTERN 20, NO. 17 WISCONSIN 14 In Evanston, Ill., Godwin Igwebuike had three interceptions and Justin Jackson ran for 162 yards, helping Northwestern upset Melvin Gordon and Wisconsin.

Trevor Siemian threw for a touchdown and also had a key block on Miles Shuler’s 16-yard TD run as Northwestern (3-2, 2-0 Big Ten) earned its third consecutive win.

The Wildcats also had a nice day on special teams, with Jack Mitchell kicking two short field goals and punter Chris Gradone handing over poor field position to the Badgers for much of the afternoon.

NO. 20 OHIO STATE 52, MARYLAND 24 In College Park, Md., J.T. Barrett completed 18 of 23 passes for 267 yards and four touchdowns and ran 16 times for 71 yards and a score for Ohio State in Maryland’s Big Ten home debut.

Ezekiel Elliott rushed for 139 yards on 24 carries, and the defense had four interceptions to hush the first sellout crowd at College Park in nearly six years. The Buckeyes (4-1, 1-0) piled up 533 yards.

Brad Craddock kicked a school-record 57-yard field goal for the Terrapins (4-2, 1-1).

NO. 21 OKLAHOMA ST. 37, IOWA ST. 20 In Stillwater, Okla., Desmond Roland ran for 95 yards and two touchdowns and Tyreek Hill returned a kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown for Oklahoma State.

Brandon Sheperd caught a career-high eight passes for 91 yards and Jhajuan Seales added four catches for

NO. 22 EAST CAROLINA 45, SMU 24 In Greenville, N.C., Shane Carden threw for 410 yards and four touchdowns to help East Carolina beat SMU in its American Athletic Conference debut.

Justin Hardy had three firsthalf touchdown catches for the Pirates (4-1), who were playing with a national ranking for the first time in six years. Carden became the program’s career passing leader midway through the third quarter while ECU finished with 581 yards.

SMU (0-5, 0-1) had a seasonhigh 390 yards.

NO. 23 KANSAS STATE 45, TEXAS TECH 13 In Manhattan, Kan., Jake Waters threw for 290 yards and four touchdowns, ran for 105 yards and another score and led No. 23 Kansas State to a 45-13 rout of penalty-prone Texas Tech.

Tyler Lockett had 12 catches for 125 yards and two scores, and Curry Sexton had nine catches for 128 yards and the other two scores, helping the Wildcats (4-1, 2-0) prepare for a showdown in two weeks with fourth-ranked Oklahoma by easily dispatching the Red Raiders.

Playing with a sore shoulder, Davis Webb threw for 247 yards and two touchdowns for Texas Tech (2-3, 0-2). But he also threw a career-high four interceptions — two each to Travis Green and Morgan Burns — and was victimized by numerous drops that ruined promising drives.

ARIZONA ST. 38, NO. 16 USC 34 In Los Angeles, Jaelen Strong caught a 46-yard touchdown pass from Mike Bercovici as time expired, and Arizona State scored three TDs in the final 3:53 to shock No. 16 Southern California.

Bercovici capped his 510-yard passing performance with his third TD pass to Strong, who slipped in front of USC’s Hayes Pullard at the goal line and pulled in the Hail Mary throw. Arizona State’s bench stormed the field to celebrate the first win at the Coliseum since 1999 for the Sun Devils (4-1, 2-1 Pac-12).

Cody Kessler passed for 273 yards for the Trojans (3-2, 2-1), who led 34-25 with 3 minutes to play.

NO. 10 MICHIGAN STATE 27, NO. 19 NEBRASKA 22 In East Lansing, Mich., Trae Waynes intercepted Tommy Armstrong’s pass with 30 seconds remaining, and No. 10 Michigan State held off a furious Nebraska rally, beating the No. 19 Cornhuskers.

The Spartans (4-1, 1-0 Big Ten) led 27-3 heading into the fourth quarter before three Nebraska touchdowns set up a tense finish. A 43-yard pass to Alonzo Moore gave the Huskers the ball at the Michigan State 37 with just under a minute to play.

Mississippi: Fans take down goal posts Continued from Page D-1 On the ensuing kickoff, Alabama’s Christion Jones fumbled and Ole Miss’ Kalio Moore recovered, giving the Rebels great field position at the Alabama 31.

Channing Ward forced the fumble.

A few plays later, Wallace found Walton in the end zone for the lead.

Alabama (4-1, 1-1) still had a chance to win, driving the field quickly in the final minutes, but Senquez Golson intercepted a pass from Blake Sims in the end zone with 37 seconds remaining.

Golson’s interception was an acrobatic catch in the back of the end zone after the long heave by Sims. He was originally ruled out of bounds, but replays showed he cradled the pass with his left hand and landed just inside the end zone.

“The feeling is indescribable right now,” Golson said.

After the call was confirmed by the officials, a euphoric stadium erupted.

Students hung from the goal posts after the game and eventually pulled one down, carrying it across the field in jubilation.

Wallace completed 18 of 31 passes, saving his best for last. The confident — sometimes even brash — senior has often had a gunslinger’s reputation in the past, mixing great passes with inexplicable interceptions.

But he kept mistakes to the minimum

Saturday, coolly leading the Rebels when they needed him most.

“He made some big-time plays,” Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze said. “He just played so solid. On that last touchdown, that ball was right where it needed to be for us.”

It was a surprise ending to a game Alabama controlled most of the day. The Rebels won despite being outgained 396 to 323.

T.J. Yeldon rushed for 123 yards on 20 carries. Amari Cooper caught nine passes for 91 yards.

“We did not finish the game like we needed to,” Alabama coach Nick Saban said. “I think the question for our team is, ‘How do you respond to a loss?’ ” Sims was coming off a 445-yard, fourtouchdown performance against Florida two weeks ago, but couldn’t provide any heroics on Saturday.

It was an electric atmosphere before the game. Ole Miss was hosting ESPN’s College Gameday for the first time in school history and the school’s famed tailgating area — the Grove — was overflowing with fans anticipating the biggest game on campus in more than a decade. Even pop star Katy Perry made an appearance on a gorgeous, sunny day in north Mississippi.

But eventually, the party had to move to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium.

And somehow, it became even wilder.

Ole Miss jumped out to a 3-0 lead by the end of the first quarter, but Alabama responded with a 12-play, 68-yard drive midway through the second quarter that ended with Sims’ 1-yard touchdown run on fourth down.

But Alabama’s biggest play — by far — came a few minutes later. Cyrus Jones stripped the ball from Ole Miss running back I’Tavius Mathers, scooped it up and ran 13 yards untouched for a touchdown and a 14-3 lead.

Television replays showed Jones grabbing Mathers’ face mask on the play, but it was a non-reviewable call so the touchdown call was allowed to stand. An angry stadium showered the officials with boos going into halftime, but the damage was done.

The no-call hurt the Rebels, but so did an ineffective offense. Ole Miss gained only 105 yards in the first half as the Alabama defense stuffed the Rebels at almost every turn.

That changed in the second half.

The Ole Miss defense came into the game giving up just 8.5 points per game and played well again, keeping it close until the comeback began.

The Tide lost running back Kenyan Drake to a leg injury in the second quarter.

Saban said they believe the leg is broken and Drake has already been taken back to Birmingham, Ala.

MLB: NATIONAL LEAGUE DIVISION SERIES

HOCKEY

Belt hits HR in 18th, Giants beat Nats

A Western tilt stands out for healthy, happy NHL

By Howard Fendrich The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Brandon Belt and the rest of the San Francisco Giants did what they do so well Giants 2 in October: They never Nationals 1 give in, they never give up, and they win.

Simple as that. No matter what it takes — or how long.

Even 18 innings.

On and on and on the Giants and Nationals played, until Belt’s homer off Tanner Roark leading off the 18th lifted San Francisco to its 10th consecutive postseason victory, edging Washington 2-1 on Saturday night for a 2-0 lead in their NL Division Series.

It tied the mark for most innings in a postseason game and, as late afternoon stretched into early evening and even past midnight, set a time record at 6 hours, 23 minutes. The teams combined to use 17 pitchers and 24 position players.

The Giants can close out the best-of-five NLDS at home Monday in Game 3, with Madison Bumgarner — who tossed a shutout against Pittsburgh in the wild-card game — facing Doug Fister.

That would be quite a sudden end to 2014 for the Nationals, who won the NL East and led the league with 96 wins. But after a pair of one-run losses, they’re looking as if they’re the latest team that can’t figure out how to get past San Francisco.

Down to their final out Saturday while trailing 1-0 in the ninth, the Giants tied it on Pablo Sandoval’s RBI double, then saw Nationals manager Matt Williams and second baseman Asdrubal Cabrera ejected in the 10th.

Yusmeiro Petit entered in the 12th and threw six scoreless innings, allowing one hit and striking out seven, to earn the win. Hunter Strickland got the save with a scoreless 18th.

Roark, Washington’s ninth pitcher, came on in the 17th. An inning later, he threw a 94 mph fastball on a full count to Belt, who missed 96 games this season because of a broken thumb and concussion.

When he drove the ball into the second deck beyond right field, Belt dropped his bat and admired the shot as the Nationals Park crowd fell silent. When Belt got to the dugout, teammates slapped him on his head.

Only one other postseason game in baseball history lasted 18 innings — when the Astros beat the Braves 7-6 in a 2005 NLDS. That one held the previ-

ous record for most time, too, at 5:50. Tim Hudson started that game for Atlanta — he was the Giants’ starter in this one.

The Giants, it seems, were built to win just this sort of marathon. Manager Bruce Bochy and his resilient, can’trattle-‘em bunch break down opponents, no matter how talented.

The Giants won the 2010 and 2012 World Series under Bochy and have not lost a postseason game since falling behind 3-1 against St. Louis in the NL Championship Series two years ago.

In sum, they stay calm and collected. More than could be said for Washington, which had three of its best hitters — Denard Span, Adam LaRoche and Bryce Harper — go a combined 0 for 21.

In the 10th, Cabrera didn’t like a strike-three call — he hadn’t liked the preceding strike-two call, either — and slammed his bat and helmet to the ground, then began yelling at home umpire Vic Carapazza, getting right in his face.

That got Cabrera tossed.

Williams came over, pushed his player out of the way and started arguing with Carapazza, brim-to-brim, before

also getting kicked out. Fans began booing ball-and-strike calls; they cheered when a foul ball ricocheted off the screen behind the plate and hit Carapazza in the 18th.

By then the temperature was in the low 50s; the Nationals used a hot-air blower in their dugout.

The Nationals went ahead 1-0 in the third, when Anthony Rendon drove in a run off Hudson with one of his four singles.

Washington’s Jordan Zimmermann followed up his regular-season-closing no-hitter by giving up three hits through eight scoreless innings.

He struck out six and retired 20 batters in a row in a stretch that ended with his only walk — of Joe Panik, after the rookie launched a deep fly that barely sailed foul. That came with two outs in the ninth, and Williams removed Zimmermann and inserted Drew Storen, the closer who couldn’t protect a two-run lead with two outs in the ninth of Game 5 against St. Louis in the 2012 NLDS. This time, Storen gave up a single to 2012 NL MVP Buster Posey, then the double to Sandoval that made it 1-all. Posey tried to score on the play, but left fielder Harper’s throw was

relayed to home on one hop by shortstop Ian Desmond, and catcher Wilson Ramos tagged Posey, whose foot was slightly above the plate on his slide.

Posey signaled himself safe as he crossed plate. Yet after a 2½-minute delay when Bochy asked for a replay review, Posey was ruled out.

UP NEXT u Bumgarner vs. Fister is a rematch of Game 2 of the 2012 World Series, which the Giants won 2-0 against Fister’s Tigers.

The 6-foot-8 Fister was hit in the head by a line drive off the bat of Gregor Blanco but stayed in the game. u Panik is 3 for 3 against Fister, including a homer. The lefty Bumgarner has more success against some of Washington’s top right-handed hitters (Jayson Werth is 2 for 11; Ryan Zimmerman 3 for 17) than against lefty batters (Harper is 3 for 9; LaRoche 6 for 21).

SANDOVAL’S STREAK u Sandoval’s double in the ninth extended his club-record postseason hitting streak to 13 games, four shy of the major league mark shared by shared

by Hank Bauer (1956-58), Derek Jeter (1998-99) and Manny Ramirez (2003-04).

Dodgers: Teams keep tempers in check Continued from Page D-1 Kershaw gave up Carpenter’s go-ahead three-run double in the seventh that helped the Cardinals win 10-9.

Greinke belatedly took the mound in the eighth after his teammates had already taken their positions. Manager Don Mattingly came out to get him, and Greinke left to a standing ovation.

Howell took over and promptly gave up a single to pinch-hitter Oscar Tavares before Carpenter tied it at 2.

Greinke struck out seven, walked two and didn’t allow a runner past second base.

He didn’t give up a hit until the fifth, when Kolten Wong doubled down the right-field line before Greinke struck out the next two batters to end the inning.

Greinke was pretty nifty at the plate, too. He went 2 for 3 for his first career postseason multihit game, and even slid

headfirst into third on Dee Gordon’s single in the fifth that eluded Wong’s dive at second base.

Cardinals starter Lance Lynn gave up two runs and seven hits in six innings, struck out eight and walked two.

The Dodgers took a 2-0 lead in the third. Gordon’s groundout to second base scored A.J. Ellis, who doubled leading off for his fifth hit of the series.

Adrian Gonzalez’s two-out RBI single made it 2-0, with Greinke scoring from second.

Mattingly had earlier challenged a call that Greinke was tagged out going to second.

After a review, the umpires ruled him safe when Wong tagged Greinke with his empty glove after Wong had already moved the ball to his throwing hand to try for a double play.

The teams that share a combustible history in the playoffs were under control, even after Greinke hit Cardinals center

fielder Jon Jay with a pitch in the first inning. Unlike a night earlier, when Yasiel Puig’s plunking by Adam Wainwright triggered a benches-clearing scrum, everyone stayed put in their dugouts.

Puig, who drew attention with his neon-green batting gloves, struck out on a high fastball from Lynn in his first at-bat. Catcher Yadier Molina appeared to say something to Puig, who reacted and had to be walked part way back to the dugout by umpire Rob Drake.

Puig struck out his second time up and angrily smacked his bat with his hand.

Molina and Gonzalez yelled in each other’s faces in Game 1 as both benches and bullpens emptied without punches being thrown.

you’re immediately doing something right. A former Saturday Night Live writer, John Mulaney goes the Seinfeld route by fictionalizing his life in this new sitcom, playing a humorist whose life and career often take amusing detours — some prompted by his new boss, comedy icon Lou Cannon (Short). Nasim Pedrad, who also worked with Mulaney at SNL, also stars in the “Pilot.”

9:01 p.m. on ABC Revenge Victoria (Madeleine Stowe) is at the heart of a lot of the trouble — a situation quite familiar to this show’s characters and followers — in the new episode “Disclosure.” In an effort to locate her, Emily (Emily VanCamp) is uncomfortably reunited with a number of people from her past, including one who’s an outright enemy. Josh Bowman, Nick Wechsler and Gabriel Mann also star.

By David McFadden The Associated Press

NEGRIL, Jamaica ourists from around the world are drawn to a stretch of palmfringed shoreline known as “Seven Mile Beach,” a crescent of white sand along the turquoise waters of Jamaica’s western coast. But the sands are slipping away and Jamaicans fear the beach, someday, will need a new nickname.

Each morning, groundskeepers with metal rakes carefully tend Negril’s resort-lined shore. Some sections, however, are barely wide enough for a decent-sized beach towel and the Jamaican National Environment and Planning Agency says sand is receding at a rate of more than a yard a year.

“The beach could be totally lost within 30 years,” said Anthony McKenzie, a senior director at the agency.

Shrinking coastline long has raised worry for the area’s environmental and economic future. Now, the erosion is expected to worsen as a result of climate change, and a hint of panic is creeping through this laid back village, one of the top destinations in a country where a quarter of all jobs depend on tourism.

“If the water takes over this beach, well, that’s the end of the tourists,” Lyn Dennison said as she tended to her beachside stand selling jewelry and wooden statues of roosters, horses and other animals.

For much of its history, Negril was an isolated fishing outpost. In the late 1960s, it began to draw American hippies lured by the scenery and cheap marijuana. As its fame grew, its charms were discovered by hard-partying spring breakers and more sober-minded visitors. Resorts such as Sandals and the Grand Lido went up and the number of annual visitors grew from about 40,000 in 1980 to more than 400,000 in 2012.

Fearful of losing their main draw, some alarmed hoteliers are pressing the government to refill the beach with dredged sand, a pricey step many experts say is a temporary fix at best.

Jamaica is readying plans to build submerged breakwaters it hopes will absorb wave energy and slow loss of shoreline, using an initial $5.4 million in grants from a U.N. climate change convention.

The breakwater project in Negril, which one study says could cost as much as $77 million over the course of 80 years, offers a glimpse of what may lie ahead for other coastal towns. Caribbean islands, many already heavily in debt, will be faced with the choice of trying to armor shores with seawalls and breakwaters, or conducting a costly retreat from seas that the U.N.-backed Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says could rise by nearly a yard by the end of the century.

T

Beaches across the region are being transformed by a variety of factors: shoreline development; surges from increasingly intense storms; coastal pollution that affects marine life; coral reefs crumbling in warmer waters. The changes are particularly worrisome for the Caribbean because of its dependence on sea-and-sand tourism. In addition, roughly 70 percent of the Caribbean’s people and much of its essential infrastructure are situated along coasts.

The region is facing an existential threat, said Ulrich Trotz, science adviser for the Caribbean Community Climate Change Center, which provides policy advice and guidelines to more than a dozen member nations and territories.

“We don’t have much time.

Action now is imperative if the Caribbean is to survive as we know it,” Trotz said in a phone interview from Antigua.

According to the World Bank, some areas of the island of St. Vincent have lost up to 30 yards of beach over the last nine years. A recent study by the bank forecasts that the Dominican Republic’s capital of Santo Domingo, where many residents live along the Ozama River and in its flood plain, will be one of five global cities most affected by climate change over the next 35 years.

Building seawalls to protect from an encroaching sea, an approach that has seen limited success in places like California, has been one response on the island of Barbados. But in many cases, scientists say allowing shores to retreat or bolstering beaches with vegetation and restoring wetlands could be smarter. Last year, Cuba razed seaside buildings to restore shorelines to something approaching its natural state.

“For many beaches, adaptation measures such as bringing in sand and creating seawalls will only slow the inevitable, and at a significant and continual financial cost,” said Jason Spensley of the U.N. Climate Technology Center and Network.

Environmental experts and civil planners say leaders across the region need to adapt for the long term. City developers could adjust how they zone, improve enforcement of marine regulations and better plan water systems, for example. Beachfront developers could be encouraged to protect dunes and anchoring vegetation such as seagrasses, better manage coastal runoff pollution and push construction farther back from the sea.

“We just don’t seem to be prepared to do any of it. It’s as if we do not see what Negril has become, what the dangers to its future are,” said Diana McCaulay, CEO of the nonprofit Jamaica Environment Trust.

But Shelia McDonald-Miller, program manager for the government’s breakwater project, said she is confident the offshore structures of boulders will slow Negril’s erosion. She expects construction to start next year.

SIX EASY CHANGES CAN FRESHEN HOMES FOR FALL

How rain can breathe life into economy W

ater has always meant business, and its control affects the course of history. Sumer employed water-project profits to build Earth’s first civilization. Aristotle urged Greeks to “to construct great and ample receptacles for rain water.”

The Romans maintained an extensive hydrological infrastructure, but in A.D. 537, the Ostrogothic army successfully finished off the city (and its empire) by obstructing aqueducts.

Today, much of the world faces significant water challenges. For people with entrepreneurial instincts, this means opportunity. Water harvesting provides a perfect storm of economic activity in which a vital and relatively clean resource is easily tapped. This previously neglected supply not only allows for other water sources to be used, but it can also allow for the development of real estate where conventional water is scarce. ide al Estate Gu Santa Fe Re Since water is the critical resource for life and for healthy economies, water harvesting’s ability to provide more water should not be underestimated. Economically, this is just the beginning.

Rain capture reduces sediment carried by stormwater and thereby improves surface-water and groundwater qualur | Inside Ado Modern Home To ity. Reduced sediment levels also mean less soil erosion, which positively affects agriculture, MORE HOME property values, outside investment, tourism dolThis column runs regularly in Home, lars and a community’s Santa Fe Real Estate quality of life.

Guide. Look for But that’s not all. The Home issue today’s industry seems destined New Mexican and to become an engine of every first Sunday economic activity. Given of the month, and the sheer number of at www.santafenew roofs without cisterns, a mexican.com/life/ water-harvesting revoluhome. tion would fulfill our current need to create skilled and purposeful green jobs. What’s even better is that the jobs associated with the collection, conveyance, filtration, storage and distribution of roof water are jobs that are relatively hard to ship overseas. Plus, a cistern-system construction job is a local job, which translates into sales at regional hardware stores, garden centers and construction-supply outlets (as well as any place with to-go burritos).

Most important, however, is that cistern systems create manufacturing jobs. Although some tanks can be economically shipped, it is often not cost-effective to transport large, heavy, empty containers across oceans and continents, especially when seemingly minor damage can cause leaks later. This creates a need for local fabrication of cisterns.

Local manufacturing jobs are particularly important for economies at every level. Looking back at the modern history of recessions in the United States, increases in manufacturing (as a percentage of employment) often go hand in hand with economic recoveries. The one main exception is that after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, manufacturing employment continued its overall decline since World War II. After cisterns have been designed, manufactured, and installed, this work creates a job-creation multiplier. Who will maintain the landscapes that exist because additional water is available? Who will clean, fix and replace filters to ensure the safety of potable water? Who will invent, inspect, finance and sell/ market these systems? Who will sell the real estate that has increased in value? Many of these jobs will be local, and all of them constitute worthy employment.

With cheap energy, easy well-drilling and largedam building on the wane, the water-harvesting era will inspire for job creators, elected officials, community planners, educators, scientists and peace activists. Let’s call it the reign of rain.

Style expert Elizabeth Mayhew and her friend, Mark Hartman, decorate her New York City apartment. A quick rearranging of the furniture and other décor can instantly make rooms more inviting. PHOTOS BY ANNE SCHLECTER

Season of renewal

By Elizabeth Mayhew

Play musical chairs (and sofas and tables)

Special to The Washington Post

Twice lately I have visited friends who have complained to me that they never use their living rooms. In both cases, my friends had furniture (a sofa in one house and two big upholstered club chairs in the other) that visually blocked the entrance into the room. I suggested a quick rearranging of the furniture (we swapped the bulky pieces with lighter, airier pieces from the other side of the room) and voila! Their rooms became instantly more inviting.

If you are not using one of your rooms, then chances are the furniture plan is off. To check whether the layout is working, ask yourself these questions: Does the room look good? Does it seem balanced, in that nothing overwhelms the room? Is there a surface within reach of most chairs? When you sit on the sofa, do you have a nice view? To test whether a room is inviting, have some friends over for a drink. It’s the best — and most fun — way to measure your success. Even if you end up moving the furniture back to where you started, it’s always a good test to see whether you can change a room’s flow for the better.

T

he other day at the dentist’s office, I was having a one-way conversation with my hygienist Rose (she was talking, I was grunting as one does when in the dentist’s chair) about change. Rose’s tradition is that every fall, she makes a change — whether it be a new haircut or the color of her sheets — to keep life interesting. As she told me about her new lipstick color (another of her fall adjustments), I, muted by the fact that her hands were in my mouth, started to daydream about the small decorating updates someone could do to shake things up.

Here are six fall improvements that cost little to nothing but are sure to be noticed by friends, family and, most important, you.

Change your scent A change in fragrance can have as much positive impact in your home as a change in wall color. (It’s the reason real estate agents tell you to boil some cinnamon sticks in a pot of water or bake cookies before prospective buyers arrive.) In the fall, I like to switch to a spicier, citrus-based or more musky aroma. In the summer, I burn Jo Malone’s Nectarine Blossom & Honey scented candle, but come fall I move to her Orange Blossom fragrance ($65 each from www.jomalone. com).

Let the light shine You need to wash your windows more often than just during the spring cleaning spree. The best way to freshen a room is to remove the grime and let the sun shine in. Start by vacuuming the sills, screens and window frames with a dust brush. Then clean windows with a squeegee with a sponge attachment dipped in

In the fall, let the light shine in: Wash your windows.

a bucket of warm water that has a squirt of dishwashing liquid.

Start at the top left corner and drag the squeegee to the right, drying the scraper after each pass. Remove any remaining water on the edges of the window with a damp, wrung-out chamois.

Be a photo editor Most people have too many framed photos on display throughout their house. I suggest picking a couple of spots to display your favorites and have at most seven (odd numbers always

look better than even) grouped together. Put them in consistent frames (all silver, all wood, etc.), and remember: A single photograph says more than a dozen.

To update your collection, rather than adding more frames, swap out old photos or just slip a new photo into the frame in front of an old one. Also consider displaying a group of photos with a specific theme. For example, display all fall and Halloween images now, and winter and holiday images in December; that way, even your photos become part of your seasonal decor.

Revamp light sources I have had a couple of clients complain about the lighting (or lack thereof) in their rooms. Getting the right mix of fixtures and the right output of light is one of the most important elements of decorating. A beautiful room can turn ugly in too harsh a light, and daily tasks can be hard to complete in rooms that are too dark. Factor in a lack of natural daylight that comes with shorter days, and indoor lighting is all the more essential. There are two ways to solve lighting issues.

Sellers, give every room a purpose

MICHAEL PARTENIO BETTER HOMES & GARDENS

By Kim Cook The Associated Press

M

any of us have one room in the house that doesn’t really have a job. Maybe we set it up with an air bed once in a while for guests, or shove out-of-season clothing boxes in there, or use it as a holding zone for stuff we’re not sure what to do with.

But when your house is on the market, every room has a role to play to make the sale. Next to fixing whatever’s broken, staging — decorating rooms in an inviting way to help people imagine living in them — is important.

“The purpose of home staging is to draw the buyers into the house emotionally so they say, ‘Wow, we want to live here!’ ” says Melinda Bartling, a real-estate agent and home stager in Overland Park, Kan. “Buyers must be able to see themselves living in the house, not questioning why it looks the way it does. For example, if you use your finished basement as a catch-all, buyers will wonder what’s wrong with the space.”

New York-based real-estate agent Nathalie Clark’s motto is “minimalism with personality.”

“The owner’s presence must be as discreet as possible, but the rooms have to feel inhabited and should clearly state their function,” she says.

Some ideas from stagers on what to do with an unused space:

BOTTOM: Turn a smallish bedroom with no closet space into a plus by staging it as a home office. A pair of trestle legs and a slab door top from a home improvement store will suffice, or repurpose furniture from a graduated college kid’s room. If there’s a small closet in the room, outfit it with shelves.

A small closet usually says ‘no storage,’ but if you show it as a children’s closet, you’ve created instant charm with a clever solution. Add a low shelf or two and stage it accordingly.

But depending on your market, it may pay off to stage one of those feature by transforming a small room rooms as a home office. into a large closet or dressing room.

In a four-bedroom home, achieve the purpose. Add a chair or ottoman and a large mirror, perhaps, so “use the room farthest from a bathroom,” she advises. buyers can imagine a dressing room.

Stage an extra bedroom or section of the basement as a craft room to show potential buyers the usability of the space. A worktable and storage can be recycled from rummaged furniture or bought new; paint everything in coordinating hues. GREG SCHEIDEMANN/BETTER HOMES & GARDENS

Renewal: Refresh your home with right light Continued from Page E-1

The right output of light is one of the most important elements of decorating. PHOTO BY ANNE SCHLECTER

No. 1: Install dimmers everywhere.

Easy and not expensive to install, dimmers allow you to moderate the brightness so that a dining room can be bright enough to complete a school project but dim enough to host a cozy dinner party.

The second way to transform a room is by buying the right light bulb. Bulbs now come in a variety of shades — some bright white, some with a blue or a yellow cast — and each of these colors has a temperature rating measured in degrees Kelvin. The lower the Kelvin number (between 2700K and 3000K), the more yellow the light is; the higher the Kelvin (between 5500K to 6500K), the bluer. White light is usually 3500K to 4100K. For my clients, I usually suggest a whiter light for kitchens and a yellower light for liv-

ing rooms and bedrooms. The color you ultimately end up choosing comes down to personal preference, so buy a few different bulbs and test them out.

Note not only which you prefer, but also how your rooms transform under the different casts.

Branch out Flower season may be over (unless you like mums), so try cutting tree branches instead. Branches displayed in a vase give a natural note to your rooms — even without leaves on them — but also add height and drama. Best of all, they’re free. Look for branches that have a sculptural shape. If you feel crafty, spray-paint them black, white or a striking color.

TIME OUT

Not quite on base

T

Horoscope HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, Oct. 5, 2014: This year you make friends very easily. People count on you, perhaps a little too much for your taste. Learn to establish boundaries before you get to the point at which you are likely to explode. If you are single, your circle of friends broadens, and you are likely to meet someone who makes your imagination run wild. Make no commitments for a while. If you are attached, the two of you need to look at your long-term goals and decide if it is time to fulfill at least one of them. Your relationship will be enhanced as a result. Pisces intrigues you.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHH You might decide to go your own way, or spend a lazy day at home perfecting your couch potato act. Do whatever feels right, though you might have to convince a roommate or loved one that you do not want to be bothered. Tonight: Not to be found.

This Week: If you can take off Monday, do. You will need the extra R and R.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Know what you want. A partner might have a different idea.

Do you really want to cause a problem? Once you go along with this person’s request, you might be delighted by how much of a good time the two of you will have. Tonight: The action whirls around you.

This Week: Use Monday and Thursday to the max.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH A close loved one will decide to monopolize your time. Your inner voice is likely to urge you to move on to other things, but quiet it down. You simply can’t have enough time with this special person. You’ll discover that you share a long-term desire.

Tonight: Be a duo.

This Week: Relate directly to a key person about a money matter.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You might want to adjust to someone else’s request. This person could be demanding in some way. Enjoy his or her personality, because you cannot change it. Appreciate what he or she has to offer. Tonight: Enjoy the moment.

This Week: You steal the limelight Monday and have every chance to succeed.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Others will come forward with quite a few suggestions, but you’ll have your own ideas.

You seem to be in a period in which misunderstandings happen more often. Clear the air, and incorporate many different people from your life. Tonight: The party could go on and on.

This Week: Others dominate.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Discuss a potential trip and start making plans. A lengthy discussion with someone involved would be fun. A loved one suddenly could become much more talkative. Enjoy this moment, and don’t let another matter interfere. Tonight: Have a great time.

This Week: Pick a dream, manifest it and see the results.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Despite an inclination to join your pals, you will decide to throw yourself into your work. A financial matter might come up from out of the blue, but you’ll be ready to handle it. Your will power will be needed to resist meeting up with a loved one.

Tonight: Stay close to home.

This Week: Get as much done as possible Monday.

this. Tonight: Let it get a bit wild.

SAGITTARIUS(Nov.22-Dec.21) HHHH You might want to retreat and cocoon. You could be overtired, as you have been working at full throttle for much of the past week. Relax and center yourself.

This Week: Stay close to home.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You tend to get what you want. You are very clear with your intentions, and others seem to respond with ease.

Scratch pad

he guy standing at home plate, pawing the dirt, ready to break for first base, was a professional baseball player, a handsome man so fleet of foot he leads his team in stolen bases. At first was a man with a glove. The guy with the ball, standing at third, poised to throw, was me.

Someone yelled, “Go.” Nothing unusual here. Flabby old men like me have idiot fantasies like this one all the time, generally ending in a Walter Mitty moment of triumph. The only difference here is that this was real. Also, the ending was not predetermined.

What brought me there was a short video clip I’d found of Baltimore Orioles’ third baseman Manny Machado making an outstanding play. Manny bolts to his Gene right to grab a ground ball. His momentum carries him to the base and then Weingarten 10 feet beyond it. He is now a daunting The Washington distance from first, toward which the Post batter is barreling. But Manny seems unconcerned. He stares at the ball in his hand for a moment, as though they are exchanging pleasantries, then uncorks a throw so mighty that the ball seems to have independent thrust, from afterburners. You can practically see a contrail. Out. (You can view the play here: http:// tinyurl.com/mz46o2e.)

If you are a certain age and body type, a video like this can prompt some envy, which can become defensiveness. So when I showed it to my editor, Tom the Butcher, I expressed my awe and all that, but added that, stripped of the extra distance and time pressure Machado faced, the third-baseman’s routine throw to first — a simple hypotenuse of 127.375 feet! — is not all that hard. I said even I could probably pull it off, at which point Tom observed that it sure would make his month if I tried to prove this contention in a real ballpark, with a real speedster, in front of a real video camera.

It wasn’t hard to arrange. Minor league baseball teams tend to be desperate for publicity. If you Google “minor league,” there is no phrase you can pair it with that is too hokey to garner some hits. “Chicken race”? Yep. “Helicopter candy drop”? Sure! “Liposuction giveaway”? Why the heck not! By comparison, my proposal was downright dignified, even for the Potomac Nats, the classy, Class-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals, even during their run to their league championship, which they would win two days later.

So here I am at their G. Richard Pfitzner Stadium in Woodbridge, Va. (Adorably, the P-Nats call it “The Pfitz.”)

Standing at the plate is their speedy star shortstop, Stephen Perez. Stephen has been gracious, but he doesn’t look thrilled to have been volunteered for this; despite being the center of attention, he seems a little sullen and indignant, like the costumed schnauzer at a Halloween party whom everyone is aww-ing over. And like that dog, Stephen seems intent on revenge.

This stunt is enormously tipped to my advantage. By the time Manny Machado corralled his grounder in the video, the batter was already halfway to first base; I get to hold the ball from the get-go. (Stephen politely asked if he could start a little down the line, and when I said no, his eyes narrowed just a bit, and he leaned in just a bit harder toward first.)

“Go!” What followed is a blur. Literally. Stephen explodes into an indistinct cloud of churning limbs; though I had resolved not to look at him at all, it becomes impossible to ignore the Wile E. Coyote pinwheel locomotion to my right. Major distraction. When I finally throw the ball, it isn’t Machadolike, in the sense that it leaves my hand grudgingly, perhaps unsatisfied that I’d taken no time for pleasantries. The ball seems to completely surrender to “drag,” as though the air is not air but minestrone soup. Also, it pulls the first baseman way off the bag. Also, it bounces at least five times. Stephen is not “safe,” exactly, since that term implies peril avoided.

I would say Stephen “is warmly welcomed at first by the base.”

There’s a video of it here: http://bit.ly/1sqbC0b. I urge you not to view it. You don’t want to be one of those digital rubberneckers who watch ghastly things that make you feel dirty afterward, do you?
