BOSTON BOMBING

Feds target widow, friends Officials cast wider net, seeking more suspects and broader terror plot

By Bridget Murphy and Michelle R. Smith

The Associated Press

BOSTON — Every time the widow of suspected Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev leaves her parents’ house, federal agents watching the residence follow her in unmarked vehicles. Federal authorities are placing intense pressure on what they know to be the inner circle of the two bombing suspects, arresting three college buddies of surviving brother Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, and keeping Tamerlan’s 24-year-old widow, Katherine Russell, in the public eye with their open surveilKatherine lance and leaks to Russell, media about investi- the widow gators’ focus on her. of bombLegal experts ing suspect say it’s part of their Tamerlan quest not just to determine whether Tsarnaev in Russell and the 2007, above, friends are culpable, and April 29. but also to push for as much information as possible regarding whether the bombing suspects had ties to a terrorism network or accomplices working domestically or abroad. A primary goal is to push the widow and friends to give their full cooperation, according to the experts.

ne child came to the nurse’s office with a sprained foot. Another fell on the playground. There was a headache, a stomachache and several bloody noses. The boy who vomited at lunchtime said, “I puked, but now I’m good.” “What were you doing right before you threw up?” the nurse asked. “Eating!” he replied. She took his temperature and then gave him a clean shirt, one from a cache of extra clothes she keeps for emergencies — and for children who violate the district’s dress code. The patients were among the 35 or so children who sought help

one day last week from Piñon Elementary School nurse Shona Stack. Stack, 41, is one of 27 school nurses employed by Santa Fe Public Schools, at an average salary of about $45,000 per year. All but two schools — Acequia Madre and Tesuque elementary schools — have full-time nurses. Stack has been a registered nurse for seven years, but school has only worked in the school system — at Piñon — two years. “I love it,” she said. “It’s the best job I ever had.” This week, the school district’s nurses voted Stack the School Nurse of the Year.

Smartphone physicals could become reality By Lauran Neergaard The Associated Press

A woman grieves for her late relative after his body was pulled from the rubble in a collapsed garment factory building and brought to the morgue in Savar, near Dhaka, Bangladesh, on Saturday. In the aftermath of a building collapse that killed more than 550 people, Bangladesh has agreed to safety reform for garment workers. WONG MAYE-E/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Bangladesh agrees to safety plan Death toll from garment factory collapse rises to 550 By Nazrul Islam McClatchy-Tribune

DHAKA, Bangladesh — The Bangladeshi government, garment factory owners and the U.N. labor agency agreed to implement a plan to ensure labor safety as the death toll from the previous week’s building collapse near Dhaka rose to 550 on Saturday. The plan is to be jointly implemented, a government official said, as Bangladesh has faced international pressure for the recurrence of deadly industrial disasters that have exposed poor safety standards in the garment industry, which accounts for 79 percent of

the country’s export earnings. The announcement came 10 days after the collapse of the eight-story Rana Plaza building that housed five garment factories in Savar, 25 kilometers (about 15 miles) northwest of Dhaka. It coincided with the end of a visit by the International Labour Organization’s deputy director general, Fossoun Houngbo. The plan includes the recruitment of 200 factory inspectors in six months, an assessment of buildings’ structural safety and the relocation of vulnerable factories by the end of 2013. “The government, factory owners and workers promised to stand united in their resolve to do everything possible to prevent future tragedy,” said Fayazur Rahman, a top

official in the Labour and Manpower Ministry. Rescue officials say the death toll in the worst industrial disaster in the country has continued to rise. Dozens of people are still unaccounted for. Army Brigadier General Siddiqul Alam Sikder put the number of missing at about 50, from a previous count of 149. He said 127 bodies remained unclaimed. More than 2,400 people were injured. “Unless lawful actions are taken at the earliest more lives may be lost in preventable industrial accidents,” read a statement on the agreement, which emphasized the role of international buyers and brands for improving working conditions in workplaces throughout Bangladesh.

Egypt’s Christians celebrate Coptic Easter By Aya Batrawy

The Associated Press

CAIRO — Pope Tawadros II led his first Easter Mass as head of the ancient Coptic Church in Egypt praying for security and prosperity on Saturday at the same cathedral that was the site of sectarian clashes weeks earlier. The Orthodox Easter Mass, meant to be a religious celebration that marks the resurrection of Jesus after his crucifixion, took place amid increased attacks on

churches. Egypt’s Orthodox Coptic Christians, who make up about 10 percent of the country’s 90 million people, have long complained of discrimination. Clashes between Muslims and Christians have become more frequent after a breakdown in security following the ouster of Hosni Mubarak from power in a 2011 uprising. It also comes as the country is deeply polarized, with secularist liberals, Christians and some Muslims deeply angry with the direction of the country and at odds

with a largely Islamist bloc that supports President Mohammed Morsi. The divisions played out in the church when the pope read out a list of names of Cabinet officials who had greeted the pope by phone. The crowd erupted in roaring applause at the naming of Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayyeb of al-Azhar, the head of the Sunni Muslim world’s pre-eminent seat of learning, who is believed to be in a power tussle with the president’s Muslim Brotherhood backers. The crowd also applauded

Winds topple trees, spark fires in Central Oregon PORTLAND, Ore. — Winds gusting to 40 mph wreaked havoc on parts of Central Oregon on Saturday, toppling trees that blocked roads and downing power lines that sparked at least two small wildfires and forced two dozen people to evacuate their homes. The fires were small, estimated at 10 acres and 100 acres respectively — a small fraction of a square mile. But strong winds and warm temperatures made them tough to fight. Twenty-four people were evacuated when flames got too close to the Crescent Creek subdivision near La Pine. Residents of another nearby subdivision were told to prepare their belongs and pets and be ready to evacuate if the order is given, authorities said. The Red Cross set up an evacuation shelter. Fire crews were able to make progress containing the fires as winds died down Saturday evening, said Lisa Clark of the Central Oregon Interagency Dispatch Center. The larger fire was about 80 percent contained, she said. Power-company workers were heading to the smaller fire to clear downed lines so fire crews could safely finish a containment line. No injuries were reported. The Associated Press

when Sheik Mazhar Shahin was named. The cleric who preaches at a mosque overlooking Tahrir Square, the epicenter of antigovernment protests, had been temporarily suspended after a citizen complained that his sermons were critical of Morsi. The evening prayer service, which lasted for several hours, was tightly guarded. High-level police officials, the U.S. Ambassador to Egypt Anne Patterson, as well as Muslim figures opposed to Morsi attended the Mass.

WASHINGTON — It’s not a Star Trek tricorder, but by hooking a variety of gadgets onto a smartphone you could almost get a complete physical — without the paper gown or even a visit to the doctor’s office. Blood pressure? Just plug the arm cuff into the phone for a quick reading. Heart OK? Put your fingers in the right spot, and the squiggly rhythm of an EKG appears on the phone’s screen. Plug in a few more devices and you could have photos of your eardrum (Look, no infection!) and the back of your eye, listen to your heartbeat, chart your lung function, even get a sonogram. If this sounds like a little too much DIY medical care, well, the idea isn’t to self-diagnose with Dr. iPhone. But companies are rapidly developing miniature medical devices that tap the power of the ubiquitous smartphone in hopes of changing how people monitor their own health. “We wanted to make sure they have all the right tools available in their pocket” is how Joseph Flaherty of AgaMatrix describes his company’s tiny glucose monitor. Diabetics can plug the iBGStar into the bottom of an iPhone and check blood sugar on the go without carrying an extra device. This mobile medicine also might help doctors care for patients in new ways. In March, prominent San Diego cardiologist Eric Topol tweeted “no emergency landing req’d” when he used his smartphone EKG to diagnose a distressing but not immediately dangerous irregular heartbeat in a fellow airplane passenger at 30,000 feet. And the University of California, San Francisco, hopes to enroll a staggering 1 million people in its Health eHeart Study to see whether using mobile technology, including smartphone tracking of people’s heart rate and blood pressure, could help treat and prevent cardiovascular disease. The Food and Drug Administration cites industry estimates that 500 million smartphone users worldwide will use some type of health app by 2015. Today’s apps mostly are educational tools, digital health diaries or reminders and fitness sensors. The new trend is toward more sophisticated medical apps, some that work with plug-in devices, that provide information a doctor might find useful. Some of the devices sell by prescription or on drugstore shelves, while others like the diabetes monitor and blood pressure cuff have entered a new venue for medicine — the Apple store.

Lifesaver: Piñon kids in good hands Continued from Page A-1 son, all sing Stack’s praises. They credit her with creating a “share folder,” where nursing staff can access up-to-date student medical forms, and with organizing regular meetings where district nurses can discuss policies, procedures, problems and tough cases. Stack has expanded immunization clinics for students, as well. As part of her job, she also teaches growth and development classes (puberty preparation) to the school’s fourth-, fifth- and sixth-graders in same-sex classrooms. “I was the most nervous about that,” she said. “But I really like it.” On a daily basis, she and other nurses treat run-of-the mill health problems that arise in school. But they also are asked to deal with the trickier issues of depression, anxiety, and home and family problems, sometimes teaming up with school counselors or other health care providers in the community. In Stack’s case, she and a medical aid administer intravenous feedings when necessary to a special-education student who can’t take food by mouth. Not bad for a girl from Columbia, Md., who as a child wanted to be a veterinarian and whose mother — a registered nurse — warned her away from the nursing profession. “I thought I wanted to be a nurse right out of high school, but my mother talked me out of it,” Stack recalled. “She said, ‘You don’t want to be a nurse. It’s hard work, exhausting.’ So I got my first degree in biology. I didn’t know what I was going to do with it, and I ended up doing nothing with it.” She worked, instead, toward a career as a dietitian, working in Virginia and Arizona with the federally funded Women, Infants and Children program,which provides supplemental food and nutri-

tion education for children and pregnant women. Stack and her husband, Chris Novak, also served in the U.S. Peace Corps in Madagascar in 2001 and 2002. A coup in that country led the couple first to Kenya and then back to the U.S., where Stack returned to a career as a dietitian. “A dietitian’s’s job is quite limited. I needed something broader, so I decided to go to nursing school and stop listening to my mother,” she said. Stack went back to school and received her bachelor’s degree in nursing in 2006 from Virginia Commonwealth University. She then set to work in labor, delivery and postpartum units in hospitals in both Virginia and New Mexico. Two years ago, she began at Piñon, which serves about 515 students in grades K-6. “She’s amazing,” Principal Devoti said of Stack. “She’s dedicated to the kids. She’s totally child-centered and totally parent-centered. She takes on each situation with grace and compassion.” The kids seemed to agree. “She’s nice,” several said last week. “She does take care of us,” noted one sixth-grade boy. Sixth-grader Brianna Hernandez, who came to Stack’s office complaining of a stomachache, said, “She helps you out with anything you need.” Stack believes in communicating with parents as often as possible. Her own triage system leads her to either call parents, send a note home to them at the end of the day or, in a few minor cases, not contact them at all. She said the state’s school-health manual lays out clear procedures for most situations, but “there are still a lot of gray areas. I try to leave it up to the parents to decide [what to do] as much as possible.” Parent Georgina Morales called Stack “my lifesaver” for helping her son, Alberto, who

has a rare disease that causes swollen glands. Danielle Montes said she feels comfortable leaving her first-grade son, Emilio, at school, even though he has seasonal asthma. “We have been very thankful that she has a fulltime job there,” Montes said. Karen Griego — whose son is allergic to eggs and somehow managed to ingest one early in the school year — credited Stack with immediately tending

to him and calling to keep her informed. “She was amazing, especially when it came to the possibility of my son’s throat closing up. She took it very seriously — she called me right away — and her concern for him was sincere.” School nurses are called to manage the care of students who have serious chronic conditions, including diabetes, asthma and seizures, so they can attend school. They give

hearing and eyesight tests, identify and treat injuries, and counsel students about physical and emotional issues. A boy came into Stack’s office last week to tell her that he had two teeth pulled by the dentist the day before, and his mouth hurt. Stack examined him but found no signs of the surgery. The boy then told her that he had it on good authority that a spider had laid an egg in a man’s ear. Then the baby spider crawled into the man’s head and ate his brain. Stack suppressed a smile as she said to him, “I seriously doubt that is true. We’ll have to do some research on that one.” Kids do sometimes come to her to complain of fake symptoms, Stack said. But usually that’s an indication that something else is amiss. “It means something is happening with them, so you have to do some exploring,” she said. “Is there something going on at school, is there something going on at home, that makes them not want to be in class?” Last week, a Piñon girl reported trouble breathing. She has a respiratory inhaler, but

Stack learned that she did not bring it to school. Stack got the girl to lie down on a cot and kept her calm while tying to reach the child’s mother. “If she stops breathing, I’m going to be performing CPR,” she noted, as she finally contacted the mother. Thankfully, the situation did not come to that. One challenge, she said, is reaching family members who continually change cellphone numbers or have multiple jobs during any given day. More problematic are the kids who come in with obvious emotional or mental issues. “Those are tough to solve. It’s difficult to learn what is going on,” Stack said. “Is it true mental illness? Is it the emotional environment? Those are some of the most challenging problems.” Though she considers the life of a school nurse to be easier to handle than working 12-hour shifts in a hospital ward, Stack said, “Sometimes I feel like I’m running an emergency room without any doctors.” Hinckley, who also worked as a hospital nurse before going to work in the schools, agreed. “In the hospital, you’re never alone. You can always get help or advice from others. In the school, you are alone.” But Stack said she knows she can always call on her principal, counselor and other school nurses to help her out. “All school nurses are overwhelmed. We can’t always get it done. There are too many kids with too many needs,” she said. Yet her peers, supervisors, and kids seem to think that Stack always gets it done. Her favorite part about the job? “The kids, of course. Isn’t any teacher you ask going to say the same thing? You feel like you are part of something — and making a difference.”

Drive along, and you’ll see green horizons, but a few inches below, the soil is dry and hard as concrete, says Aaron Henson, the county’s agriculture extension agent. If the drought ended tomorrow, he says, it would take another three to five years for the pastures to fully recover. In the past two years, Henson says, ranchers in the county — which endured 101 days of 100-degree-plus weather in 2011 — have sold or moved more than half their cattle to greener pastures, elsewhere in Oklahoma or out of state.

And Ard, the local merchant, has been thinking about the future of Frederick, where the population, nearly 4,000, has shrunk by about 15 percent since 2000. “This town could dry up,” he says. “We have an opportunity to grow or die. Many communities up and down this highway have already died. They’re shadows of what they once were. Everybody is running to the city for a better economy. A drought comes along, and it can be another nail in the coffin.” It’s a legitimate concern, says Ryan McMullen, state director of USDA rural development.

In more than a half-century of growing wheat and raising cattle, he’s seen it all — tornadoes, droughts, hailstorms, insects — sometimes, he says, all in the same year. “It hasn’t been a death blow.

Widow: Surveillance indicates lack of trust Nowhere to bury Continued from Page A-1 of Columbia, said authorities may be tracking Russell closely because they feel she’s not being completely honest about all she knows. “It seems to me they don’t believe her yet,” he said. Dzhokhar is in a prison hospital, facing a potential death sentence if convicted of the terrorism plot that authorities allege the 19-year-old and his late 26-year-old brother carried out April 15. Twin pressure cooker bombs detonated near the race’s finish line, leaving three people dead and injuring more than 260 others. Tamerlan died in a gunfight with authorities April 19, a day after authorities released photos of the suspects. Tamerlan’s widow has been ensconced at her parents’ North Kingstown, R.I., home since then. Much about her remains a mystery, including what she knew or witnessed in the weeks, months and years before the bombings, and what she saw and did in the days after. It’s unclear when Russell last communicated with her husband, but her lawyer, Amato DeLuca, told The Associated Press in an interview last month that the last time she saw him was before she went to work April 18. DeLuca said Tuesday that Russell had met with law enforcement “for many hours over the past week,” and would continue to do so in the coming days. He previously told the AP that Russell didn’t suspect her husband of anything before the bombings, and nothing seemed amiss in the days after. Zlotnick said the fact that charges have been brought against the younger brother’s three friends from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth over allegations they covered up for Dzhokhar indicates authorities are willing to go after the widow for similar actions. That puts pressure on

One question that swirls around Katherine Russell is what she saw inside the apartment she shared with her husband and their toddler. Officials believe bombs were assembled in that apartment. Russell to cooperate. Dias Kadyrbayev and Azamat Tazhayakov, students from Kazakhstan, were charged this week with conspiring to obstruct justice by taking a backpack with fireworks and a laptop from Dzhokhar’s dorm room, while Robel Phillipos was charged with lying to investigators about the visit to the dorm room. All three are 19 years old and face the possibility of five or more years in federal prison. The lawyers for the Kazakh students said their clients had nothing to do with the bombing and were shocked by the crime. Phillipos’ attorney, Derege Demissie, said he was accused only of a “misrepresentation.” Nancy Gertner, a former federal judge in Massachusetts and a professor at Harvard Law School, said she believes authorities will try to use the conspiracy charges against the friends to turn them into cooperating witnesses against Dzhokhar. A grand jury is likely already hearing testimony against Dzhokhar, said Michael Sullivan, a former U.S. attorney for Massachusetts who also once headed the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. He said investigators will be looking into whether the brothers tested bombs before the attack and asking questions about whom Tamerlan had contact with when he traveled to Russia last year. Those are some of the things they would also want to know

from Russell. One of investigators’ goals right now is “to figure out if she has knowledge of how he became radicalized, who he spoke to, how he may have learned to make the bomb and whether there are others out there who share his views,” said Ron Sullivan, a professor and director of Harvard’s Criminal Justice Institute. In addition to threatening her with criminal charges and a potential prison sentence to get what they want from her, Ron Sullivan said authorities can bring social pressure to bear, including leaking information that suggests she isn’t being helpful. “She’s the mother of a young daughter. I imagine she does not want to be deemed as a pariah or ostracized by the whole country,” he said. One question that swirls around Russell is what she saw inside the cramped Cambridge apartment she shared with Tamerlan, whom she married in 2010, and their toddler. Two U.S. officials have told the AP that Dzhokhar told investigators the bombs were assembled in that apartment. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss the details of the ongoing investigation. Robert Clark Corrente, a former U.S. attorney for Rhode Island, said it is unlikely Russell could be prosecuted if she saw a pressure cooker in the home. But if she saw a dozen pressure cookers and several bags of

bombing suspect

fireworks, that could be a different story. Her culpability for her actions after the bombings is also a matter of degrees. She could be in trouble if authorities determine she harbored someone or destroyed evidence. But even if Russell communicated with her husband after the release of his photo as the bombing suspect, Corrente said she may not be charged because of the public way it happened. “I think anybody would be expected to call his or her spouse and say, ‘You won’t believe what I just saw on TV,’ ” Corrente said. The arrests of Dzhokhar’s friends and scrutiny of Russell may also have a deterrent effect by demonstrating what happens to people who don’t alert authorities if someone close to them is involved in a terror plot, Zlotnick said. Eugene O’Donnell, a John Jay College of Criminal Justice lecturer and former police officer and assistant district attorney in New York City, said the message from federal authorities is clear: “No stone will be unturned” in their probe. “I think after 9/11, there’s really a kitchen sink approach to national security,” he said.

with his decision to handle the service. “I keep bringing up the point of Lee Harvey Oswald, Timothy McVeigh or Ted Bundy. Somebody had to do those, too.” Meanwhile, two U.S. officials said Dzhokhar Tsarnaev told interrogators that he and his brother initially considered setting off their bombs on July Fourth. Boston police said they planned to review security procedures for the Independence Day Boston Pops concert and fireworks display, which draws a crowd of more than 500,000 annually and is broadcast to a national TV audience. Authorities plan to look at security procedures for large events held in other cities, notably the massive New Year’s Eve celebration held each year in New York City’s Times Square, Massachusetts state police spokesman David Procopio said. Gov. Deval Patrick said everything possible will be done to assure a safe event. Meanwhile, federal, state and local authorities were searching the woods near the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth campus, where Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was a student.

BOSTON — A funeral home director was scrambling to find a cemetery that would bury a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings, ignoring protesters gathered outside his business and saying everybody deserves a dignified burial service no matter the circumstances of his or her death. Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, died from “gunshot wounds of torso and extremities” and blunt trauma to his head and torso, said Worcester funeral home owner Peter Stefan, who has Tsarnaev’s body and on Friday read details from his death certificate. The certificate lists the time of his death as 1:35 a.m. April 19, four days after the deadly bombing, Stefan said. Tsarnaev’s family was making arrangements Friday for his funeral. “My problem here is trying to find a gravesite. A lot of people don’t want to do it. They don’t want to be involved with this,” said Stefan, who said dozens of protesters gathered outside his funeral home, upset

Failed by feds, states tackle ‘secret’ cash in politics Groups that aren’t required to report spending shelled out $309M in 2012 By Matea Gold, Chris Megerian and Mark Z. Barabak Tribune Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — Early last month, state lawyers and election officials around the country dialed into a conference call to talk about how to deal with the flood of secret money that played an unprecedented role in the 2012 election. The discussion, which included officials from California, New York, Alaska and Maine, was a first step toward a collaborative effort to force tax-exempt advocacy organizations and trade associations out of the shadows. The unusual initiative was driven by the lack of progress at the federal level in pushing those groups to disclose their contributors if they engage in campaigns, as candidates and political action committees are required to do. “There is no question that one of the reasons to have states working together is because the federal government, in numerous arenas, has failed to take action,” said Ann Ravel, chair-

woman of California’s Fair Political Practices Commission, who organized the call with officials from about 10 states. The 2012 campaign set a highwater mark for independent groups, which unleashed more than $1 billion into federal races, three times as much as in 2008, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics. The bulk of that spending was by super-PACs, which must disclose their donors. But nonprofit advocacy groups and trade organizations, which do not have to reveal their financial backers, accounted for $309 million. Among them were the conservative Crossroads GPS, the liberal Patriot Majority USA and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The actual influence of such organizations was far greater, as tax-exempt groups also poured tens of millions of dollars into election-related activity that they were not required to report. Advocates for disclosure say it is essential for the public to know who is trying to influence elections. But opponents say making donors public would infringe on their privacy and could intimidate some from participating in politics. For now, state officials who participated in the conference call are sharing information on their campaign finance regula-

tions and experiences with advocacy groups in their states. But the agencies may move to team up on investigations and work together to pressure federal agencies to do more. The push by state regulators comes as scrutiny of nonprofit groups is gaining new attention at the federal level. On Capitol Hill, Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., plans to use his influential post as head of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations to press for greater oversight of these groups. And the Securities and Exchange Commission is considering a rule to require publicly traded corporations to reveal their political donations. But disclosure advocates acknowledge they face a steep climb in Washington. “I have no reason to believe this is going to be easy,” said Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, who unveiled a bipartisan disclosure bill with Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., last month. She is the first GOP senator to sponsor such a measure in recent years; it is not clear whether other Republicans will come aboard. “Unless both sides realize that disclosure is important to all of us, it’s not going to happen,” Murkowski said. Much of the focus is on “social welfare” organizations set up under section 501(c)4 of the tax

code, which can engage in elections as long as politics is not their primary purpose. Such organizations have proliferated since 2010, when the Supreme Court ruled in the Citizens United case that corporations could spend unlimited sums on elections. The decision also applied to unions and nonprofits. State officials criticize multiple federal entities as failing to respond swiftly to the new environment. The Internal Revenue Service has asked some nonprofits for more information about their activities, but has not indicated whether it has launched any formal investigations. In California, the Fair Political

Practices Commission recently issued a series of subpoenas as part of an investigation to uncover the source of $11 million involved in two ballot measures last fall. The money passed from Americans for Job Security, a Virginia nonprofit, to the Center to Protect Patient Rights in Arizona, to another Arizona nonprofit called Americans for Responsible Leadership, and then to the conservative Small Business Action Committee in California. The committee was working against Gov. Jerry Brown’s tax increase measure and in support of another measure intended to curb the ability of unions to raise money for politi-

Frontiers in Science

cal activity. The source of the money remains unknown. Lawmakers in more than a dozen states have proposed legislation to force such groups to disclose their donors. Advocates on both sides expect the state measures will trigger litigation. In the meantime, the moves are causing anxiety among taxexempt groups and their donors. “There’s deep concern,” said Larry Norton, a campaign finance lawyer in Washington who represents many nonprofits and trade groups. “It probably has a chilling effect on organizations themselves, and I think will likely have an impact on their fundraising.”

Gov.: ‘Time to right this wrong’ Paperwork delays pardons of Alabama’s wrongly convicted Scottsboro Boys

Charlie Weems, left, and Clarence Norris, two of nine defendants in the Scottsboro Boys case, read a newspaper in their Decatur, Ala., jail cell on July 16, 1937, after Norris was found guilty by a jury that specified the death penalty. Weems was to be tried a week later.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Though the Alabama Legislature has cleared the way for posthumous pardons of the Scottsboro Boys, much work — from legal documents to public hearings — remains before the names of the nine black teens wrongly convicted more than 80 years ago are officially cleared. The Scottsboro Boys were convicted by all-white juries of raping two white women on a train in Alabama in 1931. All but the youngest were sentenced to death, even though one of the women recanted her story. All eventually got out of prison. Only one received a pardon before he died. The case became a symbol of the tragedies wrought by racial injustice. It inspired songs, books and films. A Broadway musical was staged in 2010, the same year a museum opened that was dedicated to the case. The Scottsboro Boys’ appeals resulted in U.S. Supreme Court decisions that criminal defendants are entitled to effective counsel and that blacks can’t be systematically excluded from criminal juries. In April, the state Legislature passed a bill

to allow posthumous pardons in the case, and Gov. Robert Bentley signed it into law. But before the pardons are officially issued, the state Board of Pardons and Paroles must receive applications for them from a circuit judge or district attorney in one of the counties where the Scottsboro Boys’ original trials occurred. The applications must show that pardons would remedy social injustices associated with racial discrimination. Then the board would have to hold a public hearing and vote to grant the pardons, Assistant Executive Director Eddie Cook Jr. said. Sheila Washington, founder of the Scottsboro Boys Museum and Cultural Center in northeast Alabama, said that will happen soon. “Trust me. It is not going away after

we got it this far,” she said. When Washington started a campaign for pardons in the case, she discovered state law did not permit them for dead defendants. She worked to get the new legislation passed, which permits the parole board to issue posthumous pardons in cases at least 80 years old. “It’s time to right this wrong,” Bentley said at the signing. Once the pardons are granted, Washington’s work won’t be done. She said she hopes public attention about the pardons will help her solve one mystery about the case: The burial sites of five of the Scottsboro Boys remain unknown. Most of the Scottsboro Boys faded from public view after being released by the state.

NRA says fight is far from over During annual convention, leaders say they will never surrender weapons

Obama urges new tack for Central America’s drug war By Kathleen Hennessey and Tracy Wilkinson Tribune Washington Bureau

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica — President Barack Obama capped a three-day visit to Latin America on Saturday by urging the region’s leaders to fight the drug war not with more guns or military aid but with greater investment in infrastructure, education and energy. Communicating that message, delivered Friday night to a group of Central American leaders and again Saturday at a development conference in San Jose, was the chief aim of Obama’s brief visit south, which also included a stop in Mexico City. As he zipped through the two capitals, Obama sought to change stereotypes about a troubled region by touting the possibilities in trade, energy development and democratic reforms. “We shouldn’t lose sight of the critical importance of trade, commerce, business for Costa Rica, the United States and the entire hemisphere,” Obama said Saturday. The message was a shift from years of tough talk on U.S. plans to help governments crack down on the cartels smuggling drugs to feed demand north of the Mexican border. Amid a push to pass immigration reform and with a new administration in Mexico, Obama was eager to cast Latin America in a new light. The president’s optimism came across as unfounded to some in Mexico where President Enrique Peña Nieto is just five months into his reform efforts and questions remain about his commitment and new strategies for the drug war. And in Central America the push toward stability and stronger democracy is further behind. In spite of agreements ending years of civil wars, Central America registers some of the world’s highest murder rates largely because of Mexican drug traffickers who have expanded their operations throughout the region. Obama adjusted his rosy message some in San Jose on Saturday, when he told business and community leaders “we’ve made progress; more progress needs to be made,” particularly in establishing a secure border with Mexico that doesn’t restrict trade. Still, the president made clear his aim for the visit was to shift the conversation away from unmet goals to future potential. In Mexico, the move is an attempt to seize on the new leadership, aides have said, and capitalize on Peña Nieto’s promise to boost trade and open new

markets to foreign investment, particularly in the energy sector. The youthful and politically savvy new president has proved to be an appealing partner. Finding similar partners in the smaller nations farther south is more difficult. Obama’s meeting with Central American leaders Friday put him at the table with erstwhile leftists such as Nicaragua’s Daniel Ortega and iron-fisted former generals such as Guatemala’s Otto Perez Molina. The president kept some distance from the group, which included the presidents of El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Panama, Belize and the Dominican Republic. The leaders were gathering for a regular meeting of the Central American Integration System, a regional partnership. The U.S. attended the meeting as an “observer,” a point Obama noted in remarks before a working dinner. He met privately only with his host, Costa Rican President Laura Chinchilla. Several countries said they would use the meeting to ask for more money for “citizen security” programs. But the White House announced no new aid commitment, with Obama emphasizing that the Central American leaders should do more among themselves to address their problems. Greater cooperation — between the U.S. and Central America as well as among the Central American nations — is complicated. Many countries have weak democracies, corrupt or inept institutions and security forces tainted by poor human rights records. There is little trust to go around. “There’s really much more that needs to take place dynamically within the region, but there are … some countries where it’s just really hard to find institutional partners,” said Cynthia Arnson, director of the Latin American program at the Washingtonbased Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. “If the idea is to integrate … and get greater cooperation, but you don’t have a viable national partner … what can you do?” Decades of U.S. meddling in and exploiting the region doesn’t help, noted Dan Restrepo, who served as former senior director for the Western Hemisphere at the National Security Council and is now an international consultant.

has a record 5 million members, but he urged for increased membership and added that it “must be 10 million strong” in its battle against gun control. Meanwhile, across the street from the convention, advocates of expanded background checks and other gun control measures vowed to continue their fight. Kellye Bowman of the Houston chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, a national grassroots effort promoting gun control that was started after the Sandy Hook shooting, said her organization was not discouraged by last month’s failure of the gun control bill. She said its defeat actually increased her group’s membership. “We can turn any mom into an activist. They need to start listening to us,” said Bowman, who was among more than 60 protesters who had gathered Saturday afternoon across the street from the convention.

Acres of displays of rifles, pistols, swords and hunting gear could be found inside the convention hall. James Porter, the incoming NRA president, said Obama’s gun control efforts have created a “political spontaneous combustion” that has prompted millions of Americans to become first-time gun owners and created a national outrage that will manifest itself in next year’s midterm elections. “The Senate and House are up for grabs,” Porter said during Saturday’s meeting. “We can direct this massive energy of spontaneous combustion to regain the political high ground.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Governor keeps favoring the corporate interests G ov. Susana Martinez’s recent veto of the minimum wage increase for New Mexicans shows a disregard for the vote by our state representatives who approved the minimum wage increase. Martinez continues to express her views and take action that is oppositional to democracy and American ideals. Our state has its share of families and individuals who struggle financially. The governor seems to think she is an elite ruler of our state, having authority over all decisions that affect us. I suggest that Martinez stand behind her decision, one that is arrogantly uncompassionate and will affect tens of thousands of New Mexicans. I suggest that she give up her salary and benefits, take a minimum hourly wage for her work, and give back the additional funds to benefit our state. Like so many politicians in office today, her decisions seem to favor corporate interests over the people she is supposed to represent.

Fast for support

One hundred and sixty-six men languish in a prison in Guantánamo, 130 of them on a hunger strike to bring attention to their plight. Diane Wilson, co-founder of Code Pink, a women’s peace organization, begins her own hunger strike at the White House on May 17, in solidarity with the detainees, many of whom have been held for 11 years or longer without charges. The situation is a humanitarian crisis, as more than 20 of the hunger strikers are being brutally force-fed by military police. President Barack Obama promised to close Guantánamo when he was elected and seemed to lose the political will to keep that promise. Join with other Americans in calling for an end to the force-feeding and for the release of the detainees. Commit to fast on May 17 to demonstrate support for an end to what history may determine is a war crime in Guantánamo.

A sad state

Flaunting one’s politics Lest there be doubt in anyone’s mind that Supreme Court “Justice” Antonin Scalia not only is lacking in judicial temperament but openly flaunts his politics, one need only review the TV shots of him at the wellpublicized White House Correspondents Dinner sitting cozily next to Fox News ultraright-wing talking head Bill O’Reilly. Reader’s Digest estimated O’Reilly made some $11 million from Fox News, and he writes best-sellers gobbled up by the right-wingers and purportedly makes $50,000 for speaking appearances, all on behalf of far-right causes. Even Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas might blush at doing that, but perhaps not. E. Donald Kaye

It’s a depressing state of affairs to read such negativity about someone who raises legitimate concerns facing our nation, especially in a city that loves nothing more than congratulating itself on its open-mindedness and inclusiveness. Celebrate diversity! Anyone? Dorothy Klopf is an asset to this paper and a fine writer. I look forward to her insights, and I’m nothing of the sort that follows Fox News. Pick up The New York Times and read about Norway, where the number of the young and able-bodied on public assistance is nearly equal to that same population who actually work. These are serious issues that need to be addressed, let alone discussed. Just because someone might have a different opinion than the collective Santa Fe consciousness is no reason to cast such dispersions on their character. Name calling is beyond the

pale and the bastion of a closed mind. If you don’t like the column, don’t read it.

A footnote city

I agree with W. Mike Weber’s letter that not supporting the Raton rail link is beyond me (“Step Up, New Mexico,” April 28). Past lack of vision gave us a railroad whose name included Santa Fe but never actually went there. Political pettiness left Route 66 rerouted away from Santa Fe. It’s sad to see lack of vision and political pettiness repeating itself. When I’ve taken Amtrak, it’s been at almost full capacity. Those boarding and disembarking at Lamy aren’t “the Escalade set” (no offense to those who are), just regular New Mexicans from towns like Pojoaque and Tesuque. Do we need to maintain roads for tourists and residents? Yes. But do we neglect the needs of everyday New Mexicans to do it? Is Santa Fe declaring itself not a state capital, but rather a footnote city with its only rail link the New Mexican Rail Runner Express, a service also threatened by budget constraints?

Fort Marcy connection? I recalled a tidbit after reading Tom Sharpe’s Fort Marcy article. My facts are a little rough and may be inaccurate. Patrick Hurley was a West Pointer from Chickasha, Okla., who became a two-star general and secretary of war. His son, Wilson Hurley, one of my favorite artists, now deceased, also was a West Pointer, pilot and engineer who lived in Albuquerque. I have discovered in reading that Patrick Hurley’s home was the present Girls Inc. house on Paseo de Peralta. Perhaps his connection, if any, with Fort Marcy would be of historical interest if any of your readers could enlighten. John R. McKee

lthough I doubt impressionable youngsters peruse the op-ed page of The New Mexican, I will warn that the following column is rated PG-13 for language that may be objectionable to some. Now that I’ve piqued your interest, here goes: Ah, sometimes covering politics in this state is almost too easy. The stories write themselves. Last week, at the Democratic Party Central Committee Meeting (a title that seems oddly Kremlinesque) in Las Cruces, aspiring Albuquerque mayoral candidate Pete Dinelli pronounced in a speech that Democrats who vote for Republicans were acting like “a bunch of pendejos.” It was an odd choice of words for a candidate to use in what — at least officially — is a nonpartisan race. But more than that, it’s a word that is simply not used in a public forum, much less in a speech to delegates in a room with reporters on hand. Rob For the uninitiated, pendejo is Nikolewski slang in Spanish for a “dumbass,” Commentary and it has a literal connotation that means “pubic hair.” Unlike an anodyne pejorative like jerk, the word packs a punch. Some apologists for Dinelli have said pendejo isn’t such a bad word, saying that it simply means “stupid.” This is naive at best and disingenuous at the worst. To them, I say, go down to Airport Road or to San Antonio, Texas — where I grew up — and chide someone as being a pendejo. After you’ve had a few teeth loosened, try convincing me it merely means “stupid.” Dinelli defended his sentiment but later issued the requisite apology. Former Albuquerque mayor and ardent Democrat Jim Baca was so dismayed that he blogged that Dinelli “pretty much torpedoed his own candidacy.” “He certainly needed all the votes he could get and he just alienated anyone who wanted to shed partisanship in this race,” Baca wrote. But while Albuquerque Republicans rubbed their hands in glee, their excitement was blunted by their own fiasco a few days earlier. While members of the Bernalillo County Commission were arguing over increasing the minimum wage from $7.50 an hour to $8.50 an hour, proponents and critics of the ordinance came forward during the public comment period. In the audience was an opponent of the wage raise and the executive director of the Bernalillo County Republican Party, Steve Kush, who was posting his remarks on his personal online account. After a woman made her case for increasing the wage, Kush posted on Facebook that she was a “radical bitch.” Then, after Kush noticed the “nice boots” that a young woman wore while calling for a higher minimum wage, a former executive director of the Bernalillo GOP responded online that, “Maybe she used those shoes to walk Central,” referring to a major street in Albuquerque known for prostitution. Not to be outdone, Kush responded by writing, “She’s hot enough to almost make me register Democrat.” The next morning, Democrats and liberals were howling with that weird combination of outrage and delight that comes when the political opposition takes an AK-47 to its own foot. By that afternoon, Kush had been suspended indefinitely by the party, which sent out a news release apologizing for the remarks. “I absolutely crossed the line,” Kush told me. “It was dumb; it was stupid.” For a Republican Party trying to show it’s not hostile to women, the incident had a Todd Akin-like feel. “It’s such an embarrassment for the party,” one Albuquerque Republican messaged me that night. But what’s just as amazing is that this is 2013, not 1993, and some political operatives don’t understand that what goes on the Internet stays on the Internet. Forever. And it’s not just a Republican/Democrat thing or a New Mexico thing. Don’t get me started on Anthony Weiner of New York, who launched a thousand bad puns and headlines after posting a picture of himself in all his Weiner glory to at least one female college student. Now he’s plotting a return to politics, running for mayor of New York City. And the latest polls have him in second place. How do you say pendejo in Yiddish?

(A word about Harwell: I called “You Google his name and you’re him last week, left a message and he going to see more hits for him than for indeed responded rapidly.)

Bregman said he will be appointing a fundraising team for the party very shortly. He also said he had a conference call with all 33 Democratic Party county chairpersons early in the week to talk about his “33-county strategy” for 2014. Bregman, a lawyer and former Albuquerque city councilor, has earned the reputation of being forceful and aggressive. This should be a contrast to the more laid-back and behind-thescenes style of Gonzales. But in addition to a change in style, the state Democrats might be getting a change in structure as well. Asked when he’ll appoint an executive director for the state party, Bregman said he’s not sure he’s going to appoint one. “I’m going to focus on shoring up the party — our fundraising, our social media abilities, getting detailed analysis of all precincts — before I rush to name an executive

And just to rub it in, on Twitter, Alex has more than 3,200 followers, while Sam has only 151 on his @samfor chair13 account. Speaking of Dem executive directors: Scott Forrester, who held that position for the past several years, told me weeks ago that he’d be leaving that position as soon as Gonzales’ term was up. Forrester’s new job, he said, would be heading up his own political consulting firm. Sure enough, last week I got the first news release from Bosque Strategies. It was announcement for Albuquerque City Council candidate Klarissa Peña. I spoke with Forrester the next day and he told me he might be working in

the Santa Fe city elections also. This was the day that Mayor David Coss announced that he won’t be seeking re-election. Only hours later, I received my second email from Forrester on his Bosque Strategies account. This one was on behalf of his old boss, Gonzales, offering words of praise for Coss. But that was just the first paragraph. The second, slightly longer paragraph talked about Gonzales’ love for Santa Fe and how he was born and raised here. He spoke about the “encouragement I’ve received regarding a mayoral run” but demurred about his intentions, saying only, “Now we need to focus on our gratitude for Mayor Coss’ service.” I think it’s pretty obvious that Gonzales might be running for the job.

Tourism, done right, is Santa Fe’s strength

ll week long, Santa Fe is celebrating tourism. And why not? Statewide, tourism adds $5.5 billion to the economy each year and brings in $1.2 billion in tax revenues. Without question, tourism is one of Santa Fe’s biggest industries, producing some 7,400 jobs. It’s an industry built one restaurant, shop, hotel, artist and attraction at a time, with each piece promoting the vibrant city and region that draws visitors from across the world. By taking time to mark the importance of tourism on the town and its economy, Celebrate Santa Fe Tourism is offering the opportunity for everyone involved to catch a breath just before the busiest time for visitors kicks off. The week, May 4-12, is running in conjunction with National Travel and Tourism Week. From 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Celebrate Santa Fe Tourism Expo takes place at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center. There, local businesses and groups can showcase their services and attractions to others in the industry and the community. At the event, there will even be an emphasis on customer service, always worth spotlighting. We like the notion of folks in tourism gathering to exchange ideas and receive inspiration. After all, it was a group of doers who first decided that Santa Fe could be sold to the rest of the world as a tourist destination — part of a conscious effort after statehood in 1912 to turn the town into a magnet for visitors. As Chris Wilson argued in his classic, The Myth of Santa Fe, “Santa Fe has methodically transformed itself into a harmonious Pueblo-Spanish fantasy through speculative restoration, the removal of overt signs of Americanization, and historic design review for new buildings.” It is no accident that the buildings are brown on the Plaza, and the brick fronts of the American era are mostly stuccoed over. As Wilson put it so well: “In a world infatuated with maintaining historical traditions and ethnic identities, Santa Fe has created an unusually successful illusion of authenticity.” And so we have, both for locals and visitors from the famous to the ordinary. We are richer for their presence, especially those who decide to move here for good. We all know the story of painter Georgia O’Keeffe, who fell in love with the light and sky and landscape of New Mexico, and left the East Coast to begin painting bones and flowers in the desert. Celebrated author George R.R. Martin also visited Santa Fe and liked it enough to make it his home. As a result, our city will soon have a restored, remarkable movie house to enjoy. Martin was driving by the shuttered Jean Cocteau Cinema by the Santa Fe Railyard and wondered why no one would buy it; then decided to do it himself, a gift to his adopted hometown. Sometime this summer, tourists and locals will be able to enjoy movies in a classic theater, complete with popcorn made with care, real butter and a dash of Parmesan for seasoning. Other visitors who become residents move here and rarely make headlines — but they are volunteering at the local hospital, reading to schoolchildren or bagging groceries for the hungry at The Food Depot. Even visitors who come, stay for a spell, never to return, have much to offer. For one thing, they spend money — and that money, of course, keeps businesses running, pays salaries and adds to the city’s coffers through gross-receipts taxes. We learn from these visitors, and they from us. The best tourism is less like viewing animals in a zoo, and more like an exchange of views and understanding that enriches all involved. Besides, we would argue, beneath the faux adobe remains Santa Fe’s authentic core. People visit here not because of illusion, but because in a world that is increasingly the same, Santa Fe remains unique. That is worth celebrating, both for those of us fortunate enough to call Santa Fe home, and for the many travelers we welcome to our town.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: May 5, 1913: Residents of Santa Fe have signed petitions asking for paving on an extensive scale. The petitions will be read at the meeting of the city council tomorrow night. In discussing the petitions this morning, Mayor Lopez said that one of them is from the residents of Don Gaspar Avenue who wish that famous thoroughfare paved. “The majority of the property holders want the paving,” said the mayor, “and the majority rules in these matters.” Asphalt and macadam will be the materials used, if the council acts favorably on the petition. May 5, 1988: Fasten your seat belts, Santa Fe. Possibly as early as June 11, Mesa Airlines will bring commercial air service back to Santa Fe County Municipal Airport, making six flights daily to and from Albuquerque International Airport, according to the airline’s chief financial officer. Mesa will commute between the two cities using a Cessna Caravan, a single engine turboprop seating up to nine passengers.

COMMENTARY: FARHAD MANJOO

Loving an Internet sales tax

PALO ALTO, Calif. he Internet, in the popular imagination, is supposed to be free — “the last bastion of our economy untouched by the government,” as they say on Fox News. But you don’t have to be a right-winger to recoil at the idea of an Internet sales tax. People who shop online have always gotten a free ride. When you buy a $1,000 TV from a physical retailer, you’ll pay $50 or $100 in additional taxes to your state and city. When you buy the same TV through an online store that isn’t based in your state, you’ll pay just the $1,000 base price. Many states require you to pay that extra sales tax on your tax return, but who does that? Nobody, that’s who. The net effect is that shopping online earns you a big, permanent discount. If you’re buying anything big, it almost always makes sense to avoid physical stores. At least, it did until recently. During the last two years, Amazon, which had long led the charge against efforts to collect sales tax on online purchases, suddenly began striking tax deals with states. This was a strategic capitulation — by agreeing to collect taxes, Amazon can now build huge warehouses across the country. The warehouses allow Amazon to significantly increase its shipping speed, approaching same-day shipping in many areas. Amazon’s reversal led the way for a national Internet sales tax plan. That’s how we got to the Marketplace Fairness Act, which seems likely to pass the Senate next week (there are also encouraging signs in the House). If the bill does pass, a state like Illinois, which loses an estimated $169 million a year in tax to Internet sales, would be able to force out-of-state retailers (e.g., the Washington state-based Amazon) to collect sales tax from any Illinois resident. In other words, your free ride would end — no more tax-free stuff from Amazon. If the Fairness Act passes, and if you live in a state that collects sales taxes — 45 of them do, plus Washington, D.C. — that state could choose to require you to pay that tax on all purchases, both offline and online. But don’t hate this bill just because you’ll end up paying more. The Marketplace Fairness Act does something that’s almost

unheard of: It makes taxes fairer and simpler. There’s also a carve-out for small businesses — any online company with less than $1 million in annual revenue will be exempt from the law. Rather than unrealistically requiring us to track of our purchases so we can pay our sales tax at the end of the year, it puts the onus on states to simplify their tax regulations. The law will thus create a centralized tax-collection system that proponents say will allow states and cities to receive $23 billion more in revenue each year — taxes they already are owed but aren’t currently collecting. (Opponents dispute the figure, saying that Internet sales lead to only about $3 billion in uncollected state and local sales taxes.) Amazon supports the bill. So do many small businesses and large retailers, which have long been on the losing end of the tax fight. The only holdouts are medium-sized business that primarily sell online — companies that make more than $1 million a year but aren’t large enough to set up a network of warehouses to provide same-day shipping — and the large companies that support those businesses, primarily eBay. (It wants the bill to exempt businesses that make $10 million rather than $1 million.) The other major opponents are conservatives who see the bill as a tax increase. “Less money in the pockets of people, more money for big government,” says the Heritage Foundation, which has vowed to mark down lawmakers who vote for the bill. Americans for Tax Reform, Grover Norquist’s group, has also predictably lined up against the act. Norquist told Newsmax that the law would allow states to “abuse” their tax powers. That’s plain nonsense. For one thing, the Fairness Act does not impose a new tax. Sales tax isn’t a tax on businesses — it’s a tax on customers, with the business merely acting as the collector. Whether you buy something online or offline, you’re supposed to pay tax. It’s just that, as of right now, the online merchant isn’t required to collect the tax you owe; it’s your job to pay the tax by yourself. That’s what the Fairness Act fixes. Instead of imposing a new tax, this bill addresses a tax-evasion scheme. If you want to argue that states should abolish or

lower sales taxes on all businesses, both offline and online, that’s fine. But none of the critics are pushing for cutting sales taxes for everyone — in fact, conservatives generally see sales taxes as preferable to income taxes. Instead, by opposing this bill, they’re merely arguing for an unequal policy — that some businesses should collect sales taxes and others should not. The only halfway rational reason to oppose the idea of collecting sales tax on online purchases is that it’s too complicated. A physical business has to keep track of the tax rate in each place it has a store. Online businesses, meanwhile, must tax each customer at her local rate. There are about 9,600 different tax jurisdictions in the U.S., according to the Tax Foundation. “How can we possibly know the tax rates in [each of these] jurisdictions?” Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne once argued in an interview with Reason TV. “In one jurisdiction, cotton candy is food; in another it’s entertainment or candy.” I’m not sure how they do it at Overstock, but most companies that track lots of information use a piece of software known as a database. Given that Overstock’s site advertises 81,381 “home décor” items, including 60,309 area rugs, 3,907 window treatments and 31 decorative swords, I’m confident they’ve heard of such a thing. But lucky for Overstock, the Fairness Act doesn’t require anything so complicated. That’s because the legislation has an important caveat — to begin requiring tax collection, a state first needs to simplify its tax policies. Among other things, states would have to create a single agency to deal with all regulatory filings from out-of-state retailers, and they’d have to provide free software that allows retailers to easily comply with the state’s many tax jurisdictions. Conservatives have been railing against our too-complicated tax system forever. Here, finally, is a bill that actually makes taxes simpler. Unless you support tax evasion, then, there is no sane reason to oppose making online shoppers pay their fair share. Farhad Manjoo is Slate’s technology reporter.

COMMENTARY: DAVID PLOTZ

Please, eat me if you need to WASHINGTON he Internet shivered with horror and fascination this week at the revelation that the Jamestown colonists cannibalized each other during the dreadful winter of 1609. According to the report in Smithsonian, the skeleton of a 14-year-old girl shows clear signs of being butchered for food, with telltale knife marks on her skull, jaw and shin. Fellow colonists probably ate her “brain, tongue, cheeks, and leg muscles.” The “starving time” during the first year of Jamestown left most of the 100-odd colonists dead. Ghastly firsthand accounts hinted at cannibalism (as well as the eating of horses, dogs, cats, vermin and shoes), but this is the conclusive evidence that archaeologists and historians have been waiting for. It’s the nature of taboos that they extinguish the capacity for calm discussion. Cannibalism occupies a dark cellar in our brains. Merely the mention of a famous episode — the Donner Party, Alive, the whaleship Essex, the famine in North Korea, Jeffrey Dahmer — provokes fear and disgust. (I also find that it inevitably provokes transference: It is

Editorial page editor: Inez Russell Gomez, 986-3053, igomez@sfnewmexican.com, Twitter @inezrussell

literally impossible for me to think about an episode of cannibalism and not wonder what I would have done in the same circumstances. I suspect I am not alone in this.) Even when the cannibalism is driven by necessity rather than perversion — so-called “survival cannibalism” — most people are repulsed. This may make you not want to be in a lifeboat with me, but I have never understood the horror and shock about starvation cannibalism. Human flesh isn’t anyone’s first choice for dinner (or not anyone normal), but the cannibalism taboo has always seemed pretty flimsy as taboos go. In a dire food shortage, one of the very first things you should do is eat the corpses of the dead. Human corpses have the proteins, fats, vitamins and calories that starving people most need. I don’t endorse sacrificing the living to feed the starving — though even that done through some fair process may be justified in particularly dire circumstances — but cannibalizing corpses to fend off starvation seems like an easy call, and not a disgusting one. A decade ago, I visited an Ethiopian vil-

lage destroyed by famine, and I saw what is still the most horrifying thing I have ever seen: A 6-year-old boy named Saoudi — stick legs and arms, distended belly — whose lips and tongue were brown from eating dirt. It’s very likely that Saoudi didn’t survive the year, and if he did, he probably has permanent health and brain damage from the lack of nutrition. There were no corpses to eat in Dire Kiltu, but had there been, would it have been wrong — or even disgusting — for those villagers to have eaten them? To have fed their famished children protein and fat, rather than indigestible dirt and grass and shoe leather, which is what starving people often eat? Survival cannibalism is terribly sad, because starvation is sad, but it is certainly less sad — and less revolting — than almost all of the alternatives. So if you ever find yourself with my corpse at a remote plane crash site, you know what to do. These meaty thighs, the well-marbled belly, the beer-soaked liver — they won’t be of any more use to me. Please help yourself. David Plotz is the editor of Slate.

Celebrate Santa Fe’s tourism and jobs O n Thursday at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center, the Chamber of Commerce along with the Santa Fe Convention and Visitors Bureau will be joining dozens of tourism businesses and supporters throughout Santa Fe to “Celebrate Santa Fe Tourism.” The day will provide an opportunity to highlight the significant contribution the tourism industry makes to our local economy and to take an opportunity to share all the exciting experiences that Santa Fe has to offer a visitor. Tourism represents $620 million in economic output in Santa Fe. It is Santa Fe’s largest private employer. More than 7,400 of Santa Feans’ jobs depend on travel. The revenue generated by hospitality provides the taxes that pay for roads, libraries, public safety, parks and other civic amenities. We invite the whole community,

especially those working in a tourismserving business, to attend the event and learn about all the wonderful activities, amenities and attractions we have to offer visitors. Brief courses will be offered on the importance of good customer service that will encourage visitors to return many times over and to leave Santa Fe with great stories to tell their friends about Santa Fe and its attractions. This is an exciting time for the local hospitality industry. We now have direct daily flights to Denver, Dallas, Los Angeles and Phoenix, and we have an increase of $2 million in state advertising funds to promote New Mexico. To give you an idea of the fiscal impact — visitors spent $150 million in food and beverages and $80 million in transportation in Santa Fe in 2011. Without tourism, each New Mexico household would have to pay an additional $747 in taxes. The

statewide numbers are impressive: u $5.5 billion to economy annually; u GDP $4 billion (5 percent of state economy); u 85,766 employees (direct, indirect and induced); u Over $2.14 billion in payroll (direct, indirect and induced); u $1.179 billion in tax revenues (total state, local and federal taxes) So join us from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Thursday at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center and learn how every job in Santa Fe benefits from tourism. You can make new friends, learn about the industry, perhaps find a job, win a prize or two and understand what makes Santa Fe a world-class travel destination.

recent letter to the editor (“Energy wake-up call,” April 22) stated that two-thirds of New Mexicans believe that climate change is the reason for our current drought and wildfires. I find that hard to believe If true, as a state we have a long way to go in educating ourselves about the reasons for our current situation. The increasingly massive wildfires we have experienced in the last decade happen to coincide with the end of a decades-long cyclical wet period, but have not been caused by drought. Our recent wildfires are the direct result of a century of fire suppression, coupled with more than 40 years of minimal forest management due to environmental litigation. The fact of the matter is that our forests grow at an average rate of 5 percent per year, quickly becoming overstocked and primed for catastrophic events such as the ones we have recently suffered. So, with or without climate change, the current drought or both, our forests continue to accumulate fuels that result in wildfires that we are unable to stop. The wildfires are polluting the surface water from our watersheds, burning our homes and communities, flooding areas downstream, and costing New Mexicans billions of dollars while converting much of the forest burned into other vegetative types. If we are to change this dynamic and save our forests and watersheds, we have to work toward making wildfires less catastrophic. This means managing the forests to reduce the

fuels accumulation to a more moderate level through treatments and reintroduction of fire’s natural role, as appropriate. However, there is not enough public funding, neither state nor federal, to accomplish this daunting task. New Mexico needs to find the way to accomplish this through an economic engine which, when coupled with public funding, could address the tremendous scale of the forest and wildfire problems we face. The vast majority of the material that needs to be treated in our forests are small-diameter trees that do not have substantial economic value. We need to embrace New Mexico’s other alternative renewable energy resource and make it a reality. I refer to biomass utilization, a means of producing electricity or thermal energy from the waste products, excess trees that must be removed from our overgrown forests, and using the materials in renewable energy facilities. If we want to return resiliency to our forests and maintain our watersheds, we need to make a proactive effort to reverse the historical lack of forest management by creating the economic environment necessary to start a viable biomass industry in New Mexico, much like we are doing for the wind and solar industries. Otherwise, we can count on larger fires, less water from our watersheds and the continued destruction of our natural resources because we chose not to educate ourselves. José J. Varela López is the executive director for the New Mexico Forest Industry Association.

Water picture needs rural input

Controlled burns aren’t right for forests

he news is filled with city water articles: “A flowing river enriches city,” “Parks division feels the pinch,” “Preserve is one step toward restoring riparian ecosystems.” There is another story that needs to be told about water that flows in the Santa Fe River. It is a story city residents need to hear and politicians who make decisions about water need to understand. It is a story of the Santa Fe River where it flows beyond city limits through the communities of La Cieneguilla, El Cañon, La Cienega down the Santa Fe River Canyon to La Bajada and on to the ancestral fields of Pueblo de Cochiti. These are lands fed by river water with centuries-, millennium-old agricultural traditions. Those traditions are now threatened; 150 acres of farmland plus the fields of Cochiti face the real possibility of a third consecutive year without sufficient water for crops. It will be a third year of farmers not being able to produce food to take to market or to provide for their families and neighbors. The reasons for the lack of water are complex, with many considerations. It is the sustained drought, but it is also the proliferation of residential wells and the overpumping of our aquifers by large water users and systems that have diminished our area springs. Historically, the Santa Fe River flowed through the village of Agua Fría, where it would disappear, to reappear in La Cieneguilla. There, its flow was increased by springs along the river. Then, where La Cienega and Alamo Creeks joined the Santa Fe River in a place once named Las Bocas, the river had ample water for farms and a vibrant riparian area that stretched from La Cieneguilla to the village of La Bajada and beyond to Cochiti and the Rio Grande. Now, farmers and ranchers and the riparian areas below the treatment plant are solely dependent on the city’s releases of reclaimed water. The same reclaimed water is sold as a commodity, used to expand the city’s park system and given to the Santa Fe Country Club and Marty Sanchez golf courses at no charge. When asked of the city’s responsibility for returning water to the river, their legal staff repeats the mantra that the city has no current legal obligation to return water to the river. This legally defensible position is morally bankrupt and disrespects the river’s historic acequia heritage. An added complication to the river flow is the city’s Rural Protection Zone just below the city’s treatment plant. This city-sponsored, well-intended, environmentally influenced wetlands is a poorly located demonstration project that ignored local community input. It is described as a river restoration project, but it didn’t restore anything. Instead, it created an environment foreign to the area but ideal for beavers. The beavers have come. The series of some 30 individual dams, with new ones each year, have blocked and diminished the river flow and threatens the almost submerged county bridge

at Calle Debra, a main road into La Cieneguilla. What is absent from all the newspaper articles about water in Santa Fe is any reference to the inadequate planning for our area’s water future. Our city, county and community leaders need to work together to make hard decisions on that future. If city residents are truly interested in “sustainability,” they need to ensure that those discussions include representation from the farmers and ranchers of the Lower Santa Fe River Watershed. These are the people who have worked the fields and provided food to Santa Fe for the last 400 years. Carl Dickens is president of the La Cienega Valley Association.

he U.S. Forest Service recently burned 7,250 acres in the Santa Fe Municipal Watershed and the San Juan Mountains, igniting the fires with 453 pounds of potassium permanganate, a neurotoxin. The burns released 35,000 tons of carbon dioxide. The next burn officials want to do is 2,900 acres in our watershed — in the Pecos Wilderness — using another 181 pounds of potassium permanganate, releasing another 14,000 tons of CO2. After that, they plan to burn 166,000 acres in the Jemez Mountains, using 5.5 tons of potassium permanganate, releasing 800,000 tons of CO2. Across the border in Arizona, officials are presently taking comments on a proposal to burn 1 million acres — the largest prescribed burn project ever attempted — which will be ignited with 32 tons of potassium permanganate and release about five million tons of CO2. All that smoke will come through Santa Fe. Forest Service representatives tell me it has been such a dry year that they aren’t allowed to start burns under present conditions. But they have planned massive burns as soon as the wind shifts. I called and asked about the smoke from these plans, and the Forest Service representative said, “Get used to it, we will burn for 20 years!” Although the purported aim of the Forest Service is to thin the forest to reduce the risk of fire, scientists at Oregon State University published a paper in 2012 stating that it takes thinning 10 acres of forest to prevent loss of 1 acre to a wildfire. Their conclusion is that the Forest Service’s thinning and burning programs are adding massively to global warming. Researchers Sandra Steingraber, Martha Herbert, Gabor Mate and others say potassium permanganate and the other poisons used in these projects are implicated in attention deficit disorder, autism and cancer.

The Forest Service is required to collaborate with the public, but the only “collaborators” I see have money in the game; i.e., are receiving grants or wood. Before the Forest Service burns the land, it invites commercial loggers in to harvest the trees — so they should be called business partners, not citizen collaborators. The Forest Service actually says, in its project reports, that, “These projects are to promote forest wood product industries.” No tree left behind? Their proposal for the Jemez states they can’t satisfy all requests for forest wood. It is time to take another look at this deal. The Forest Service calls it “restoration” and gets a big budget for it. Our officials like the projects because they are told it is good for economic growth. I suppose that means a few jobs. But the cost is loss of habitat, loss of carbon storage, loss of forests to refresh the spirit and purify the air. It is the loss of lives of all the birds and animals who are killed. It is the loss not only of our health but of our children’s ability to experience nature. Many other alternative actions would accomplish the stated purposes. We can have local wood harvesting co-ops like most countries do. We can educate homeowners to clear a defensible space around buildings instead of clearing the entire forest. The Forest Service should preserve trees on steep slopes so all the dirt doesn’t fall off. They should commit to zero use of carcinogens. They could obey the law about songbird protection, wilderness protection and about notifying us, correctly, of their plans, and about meeting locations and times.

Texas plant explosion could have been prevented T he deaths and human suffering caused by the recent fertilizer plant explosion in West, Texas, was a tragedy of immense proportions. My heart goes out to those who lost a loved one, were injured or had their home damaged or destroyed by the event. But let’s be clear: The explosion was not an “accident.” It was a direct result of the conservative philosophy to virtually eliminate all governmental regulation of corporations. The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) hadn’t inspected the plant in more than 25 years. As with many federal agencies charged with safeguarding the health and safety of the public, conservatives have been successful at hamstringing the effectiveness of OSHA by severely limiting its budget and, therefore, its ability to inspect for and enforce safety regulations. In 1981, President Ronald Reagan said, “Government is not the solution to our problems; government is the problem.” In many ways, Reagan’s statement kick-started conservatives’ continuing focus on demonizing virtually all government func-

tions (save for the military) that serve the public. Today, we hear the tea party and their politician minions obsessed with eliminating all “job-killing regulations.” The OSHA worker safety regulations that applied to the Texas fertilizer plant are some of those “job killing regulations” conservatives are referring to. Of course, the failure to adequately regulate the plant had a very real and tragic “people-killing” outcome. In various conversations with conservatives, I’ve asked, “What government regulations do you support or agree with?” With few exceptions, generally the response is, “None of them.” How about U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s regulations to protect consumers from getting terribly ill or killed by contaminated food or harmful medications? No. Federal Aviation Administration regulations to make sure the planes we fly in are safe and midair collisions aren’t a regular occurrence? No. Environmental Protection Agency regulations that ensure that the water we drink and the air that we breathe won’t harm us and our children? Absolutely not. I found it somewhat ironic

that conservative Texas Gov. Rick Perry immediately reached out to the federal government for disaster assistance funds following the fertilizer plant explosion. Perry has been leading the charge in his state to eliminate

those federal “job-killing regulations” — such as those that could have prevented the explosion in the first place. Conservatives seem to worship the notion of unregulated capitalism with almost religious

fervor. Now, before a tea party member pulls out his or her “You’re a socialist” accusation, let me be clear. I support capitalism as our basic economic structure. But when left alone (i.e., free of regulation), capi-

Santa Fe stands on the right side of history

ur Santa Fe City Council recently approved a resolution affirming the freedom to marry in our state. This resolution is clearly in alignment with the values, history and heritage of our city. It offers respect and extends dignity to our gay and lesbian friends, family members, neighbors and co-workers in our city. This resolution is a recognition of the presence and value of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people and their families in our city. The passage of this resolution will help LGBT youth in our city know that their lives are respected and valued as well.

talism will not safeguard the general public from the risks associated with the products that corporations produce and the services they provide. In short, the “free market” isn’t really “free.” It imposes what economists call “external costs” on workers, consumers and citizens, for which corporations must be held accountable. Like it or not, it’s up to government to keep an eye on capitalism to make sure that corporations aren’t harming the public. And yes, tea partyers, that means that a certain amount of taxes will need to be collected to pay for those government agencies that are charged with protecting all of us. Government exists to make sure we all have equal access to the Declaration of Independence’s “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Government is, in essence, a social contract we all have with each other to ensure that everyone “plays fairly,” the disadvantaged are looked out for, and no one person or corporation can keep us from realizing the American Dream.

MY VIEW: HANS VON BRIESEN

Lawless Bush legacy continues under Obama

MY VIEW: MAYNARD CHAPMAN

Senators lacked courage in gun vote

he tragic April 15, 2:50 p.m. Boston Marathon bombing was quickly followed on April 17 by a U.S. Senate vote against expanded background checks on gun sales. While the 24/7 corporate news media busily asks the question “Why?” about the Boston bombing and avoids the same question regarding the rejection of background checks, the answer to both questions is cowardice. The cowardice of killing four people including a child and grievously wounding almost 180 other innocent people by the Boston bombers is selfevident and beyond description. The cowardice of four Democratic senators is less evident. The senatorial cowardice is not comparable in terms of sheer terror. But the votes against expanded background checks by Max Baucus of Montana, Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota, Mark Begich of Alaska and Mark Pryor of Arkansas are comparable in terms of consequence — the loss of innocent lives. Each cowardly senator claims they are responsibly representing the interests of their constituents. Some of their constituents are, indeed, lowinformation voters. However, the real reason they cast such votes is fear of losing a primary election, fear of radical conservatives, fear of the National Rifle Association, and/or fear of alienating big donors. Baucus warrants special scrutiny because of his ties to special interest money. He is the only Democrat in the Senate assigned an A-plus rating by the NRA. He is pro-health care industry and anti-background checks. In 40 years of “public service,” he became a humanrevolving door through which his staffers could move easily between Congress and the health care industry lobby on K Street. Baucus chased personal wealth while throwing middle- and lower-class Americans under the bus. Baucus subsequently has announced that he will not run for re-election in 2014 after serving 36 years in the Senate and four years in the House. The shame of his vote against background checks should not be forgotten. The consequences of the vote by the “gang of four”

Monday has TECH You turn to us.

will continue to be paid in terms of human lives lost. The cowardice label also applies to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada. The Senate rules are set and controlled by the actions or inaction of Reid. Reid has allowed the Senate to be controlled by the minority party. In spite of declaring that the Senate would adopt new rules on filibustering throughout calendar year 2012, Reid reneged on these promises when the 113th Congress reconvened in January 2013. Adding insult to injury, his refusal to revise the filibuster rule has taken political heat off the shoulders of Republican House Speaker John Boehner. And finally, President Barack Obama deserves criticism for his failure to understand that a political messianic complex does not work with a dysfunctional Congress. Congress is now controlled by libertarians, tax radicals who have taken a pledge to magically “balance” the budget without raising revenue and corporate shills posing as elected representatives of “the people.” Congress has rejected any notion of governance in favor of creating a giant money tree for the wealthiest Americans. Apparently President Obama’s notion of power brokering is to ask where the power brokers want the “line in the sand” drawn. And the line keeps moving further and further to the right. Any discussion of cowardice and courage is tricky because any war veteran, if honest, will tell you that each individual is capable of displaying both. The challenge is to call forth courage when circumstances require and reject cowardice when tempted. An overwhelming number of Bostonians found the courage to run toward those injured. Watertown police chose to engage two heavily armed terrorists. In rejecting expanded background checks, Congress chose the cowardly way out. Hopefully, they will reconsider. Maynard Chapman, a resident of Santa Fe and a registered Democrat, is a Vietnam veteran who served there as a 1st lieutenant in 1964-65.

he disastrous legacy of lawlessness established by the Bush/Cheney regime has been embraced by the Obama administration. Torture is still being outsourced to other countries by the CIA, according to John Brennan, the new CIA director. Electronic surveillance of emails and social media by the National Security Agency, accessible by the FBI, would have been the envy of the Soviet KGB. Charging peaceful protesters with terrorism, a gross perversion of the word, is meant to silence dissent and the conscience that motivates dissent. We already know that our government is willing to imprison indefinitely, without charge, any person accused of terrorism — abandoning a central component of Anglo American jurisprudence that had been in place for more than eight centuries. Any claim

The terrorists of 9/11 triggered political hysteria, fueled by leaders who saw it as an opportunity for self-aggrandizement in both money and power. that drone attacks do not destroy innocent civilians is false, a lie made cynically to assuage the American conscience, or sincerely out of terrible self-deception. We should be aware that the crimes our government perpetrates abroad eventually will be turned against us at home. Some of us remember, during the Vietnam War, a photo of a helicopter dropping tear gas on an elementary school in Berkeley. If our government targets citizens abroad without due process (White House deliberations are not due process), it is only a matter of time before it does so on American soil.

The terrorists of 9/11 triggered political hysteria, fueled by leaders who saw it as an opportunity for self-aggrandizement in both money and power. This was not leadership, but exploitation. In the process, our principles of governance were betrayed, and the true basis of American strength was subverted. In short, the terrorists won, and continue to win — the “war on terror” is its own form of terrorism, at the expense of that which would be worth fighting and dying for.

Helping kids make the grade

Newspapers in the

classroom are a teaching opportunity that educators and students alike value and use. That’s why the Newspaper In Education (NIE) program is so important to our schools. Teachers say that newspapers give them learning opportunities in a variety of subjects. Not just current events and social studies, as you would expect, but newspapers are also used in history, math, English and science classes.

The businesses listed here are sponsors of NIE here in Northern New Mexico. Their contribution to the NIE program is helping to create better students in the classroom today and better citizens in our communities tomorrow.

MY VIEW: MARY BONNEY AND JON HENDRY

Immigration reform will improve communities

ay 1 is celebrated around the globe as International Workers’ Day, and across the globe, working families are standing together to commemorate those who advanced our rights in the workplace and improved the standard of living for us all. This year’s May Day celebration was especially significant in light of the immigration reform bill that was recently introduced in the Senate. As you read this, the United States has 11 million aspiring citizens who rent or own homes, raise families, work hard, start businesses, pay taxes and do their fair share in thousands of cities and towns across our country. That sounds great, until you realize they live here as second-class citizens. Last week, with the introduction of the Senate Gang of Eight’s immigration bill, our country took a long overdue step toward solving this crisis. Immigrants have played a vital role

in our country for centuries, and it’s something we should be proud of. About 10 percent of those who live and work in New Mexico came here from another country. However, immigrants can’t contribute fully — or reap the full rewards of their hard work — without a road map to citizenship. And now is the time for real immigration reform. Real immigration reform begins with a fair and practical road map to citizenship for these 11 million aspiring Americans who would strengthen our local economies. From a worker perspective, with a proper process in place, immigrant workers will be able to defend their rights and contribute their fair share at work and in our communities. No longer will immigrant and temporary workers, afraid to speak up about lost wages or unsafe working conditions, be forced to work in substandard jobs that bring down our economy’s bottom line.

From a small-business perspective, drawing that road map to citizenship will strengthen the customer base for current small businesses and spur new business formation by immigrant entrepreneurs. It will keep unscrupulous competitors from exploiting temporary workers and undercutting small businesses that treat our workers fairly. These trends will strengthen small businesses, create jobs and boost local economies. This is win-win economics. And still, the case for immigration policy reform goes beyond the economics. Working people and small-business owners across New Mexico believe that our immigration laws should reflect our country’s values as a democratic society. Democratic societies don’t create second-class citizens, whether through a temporary worker program or by preventing aspiring Americans from someday attaining citizenship.

For this country to live up to its ideals, hard work must be fairly rewarded. For this country to live up to its ideals, hard work must be fairly rewarded. That’s the foundation of the American Dream, the same dream that the courageous young students and future workers and business owners known as the DREAMers have been boldly pursuing for years. We are making gains at the state level to allow all New Mexico residents the opportunity to pursue their dreams — going to college, getting a good job or starting a small business — here in America. Members of Congress across the political spectrum should work together to guarantee construc-

tive immigration reform passes this year. Here in New Mexico, labor and small businesses are building a movement with immigrant and community organizations to ensure that everyone, regardless of where they were born or what they look like, can contribute to our communities and local economies with full rights and equal protections. It’s time to do the right thing for the 11 million aspiring citizens we call neighbors, friends and co-workers. It’s time to do the right thing for the economy we depend on and for the communities and country we all call home. Mary Bonney is the owner of the William and Joseph Gallery in Santa Fe. Jon Hendry is the president of the New Mexico Federation of Labor, which represents more than 25,000 working men and women in 24 unions throughout New Mexico.

School board considers suing state Suit would seek more funding for schools By Robert Nott The New Mexican

The Santa Fe school board is considering suing the state to force New Mexico to provide adequate funding to public schools as per the state constitution. “We have billions of dollars in

our state reserve fund supposedly set aside for a rainy day,” said board President Linda Trujillo earlier this week. “Our educational system is in crisis. If that’s not considered rain, I don’t know when it will be.” Trujillo is referring to the state’s Land Grant Permanent Fund of some $12 billion (as of April), which includes money intended for public school funding. Right now, it looks like Santa Fe Public Schools will have to find ways to cover about a $1.2 million

gap as it plans its 2014-15 budget, currently estimated to be in the $89.7 million range. Trujillo brought up the idea of suing the state during last Monday night’s board study session. She pointed out that the district is not alone in facing challenges when it comes to financing teacher salaries, decreasing class size, adapting to the incoming Common Core Standards and upgrading its technological offerings. “We have continued to ask the state

Legislature for money that we need; we’re not even back up to the rate where we were before the recession hit several years ago,” Trujillo said. “We want our kids to have everything, but we don’t have enough to fairly pay our teachers. We are losing teachers … because we cannot pay them enough. Something has to be done.” She said the board plans to start building a coalition with other districts to file joint litigation against the state, a move that will take several

Torture on two wheels

months to fulfill. She said the other four board members — Steven Carrillo, Susan Duncan, Lorraine Price and Glenn Wikle — have expressed initial support. Via email, Wikle said, “History has shown that the most significant improvements in educational funding in New Mexico come from suits against the state. … New Mexico has the financial means to make up the gap by tapping

a Tierra Torture attracted more than 220 mountain bikers to the steep, rocky hills northwest of Santa Fe on Saturday. On the eighth year of its reincarnation, the event again gave novice and expert bikers a fun challenge on nine-mile and four-mile loops. Melissa Rosen of Santa Fe was waiting in a crowd of mountain bikers for the final Category 3 race. “It is my second time. My first was seven years ago, before he was born,” she said, nodding at her 5-year-old son, Jack, who was mounted on his own small bike while wearing a red helmet with a row of rubber spikes on top. Rosen said she loves mountain biking because, “I love the environment, the speed and the technical skills you need to have.”

BoatUS Life Jacket Loaner Program. Elephant Butte Lake, Eagle Nest Lake and Caballo Lake State Parks are hoping to garner the most votes from visitors and be chosen to receive life jackets that will be loaned to children. People can vote for their favorite park until May 12 at www.boatus. com/foundation/ljlp/. The program allows a park to loan lifejackets to children who do not have the equipment so they can have a safe day on the water. “Any of the three sate parks participating in the contest would be excellent candidates for this program,” said Toby Velasquez, Chief of the New Mexico State Parks Law Enforcement & Boating Safety Bureau. “Every parent wants to make sure that their children are safe on the water and this is an excellent opportunity to support our visitors.”

Anglers who head out to Abiquiú Lake and expect to pick up a new fishing license at Bode’s General Store will need to make other arrangements as the old-time mercantile no longer carries them. “We just couldn’t afford to do it anymore,” said Bode’s owner Dennis Liddy, who has operated the store for 35 years along with his wife, Constance. “It’s just too cumbersome, and we’re so busy we couldn’t afford to give it the attention it deserves anymore.” The state Department of Game and Fish sought to switch over from its time-consuming, paper-based licensing system to a much more efficient online system by April 1, the start of the new license year. But, “We had to postpone it to make sure we got it done right,” said Rhonda Holderman, assistant chief of licensing for the department. “We should have it rolled out by September now.” The Department of Game and Fish

Stacey Frederick Wilson, born August 5, 1922 in London, England, died peacefully at his home in Santa Fe after a brief illness on March 25, 2013. After joining the RAF (Royal Air Force) in 1940, Stacey flew patrols for Coastal Command and provided flight instruction for foreign air forces. He met his future wife, Virginia (Ginny) Wilson on a walking tour in the Lake District. He came to the United States on the Queen Mary and the two were married in her Texas hometown of Grand Saline in 1950. They lived in London for a year before settling in the United States. As an engineer for Standard Oil of Ohio, Stacey worked in regions all over the U.S. from Louisiana to Alaska. In 1979, the couple retired to New Mexico, living first in Tesuque and then Santa Fe. For 30 years Stacey served as a docent at the International Folk Arts Museum. He was also a President of the Unitarian Church and a long-time member. His passions were travel and collecting books and antiques. Known for his engaging smile, Stacey delighted in conversations with friends.

Age 94 years, passed away in Albuquerque, New Mexico on 26 April, 2013. Bob was born in Weiser, Idaho and grew up in Nebraska. He received an appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point, and graduated in 1940. He soon went to Europe to serve in World War II in the 2nd Armored Cavalry Regiment. Following the war, he went on to complete a 21 year career in the Army, retiring as a Colonel. After his military retirement, he moved to his second career at General Dynamics, managing the RATSCAT Project at the White Sands Missile Range, then the Peace Owl Project for the Iranian Air Force in Tehran, Iran. Dad was an avid tennis player and fly fisherman. But more importantly, he was known by his friends and employees as a respected leader and caring human being. He always thought of himself as "just a soldier", and was guided by the principles of integrity that were instilled in him at West Point. Bob was preceded in death by his daughter, Mary Jane and his wife of 65 years, Jane. He is survived by his daughter, Nancy Reddish and his two sons Richard and Robert Jr. He also has six grandchildren and three great granddaughters. We will all miss him.

Suit: Other districts mull suing Continued from Page C-1 the interest paid each year on the state’s permanent fund.” He also suggested that the suit could be a civil-rights suit. “The rich can afford high-quality preschool, while poor children sit on preschool waiting lists and then struggle to catch up to their peers in the early grades. Poor children are overwhelmingly children of color: it is a civil rights issue.” Joe Guillen, executive director of the New Mexico School Boards Association, said by phone this week that over the past few years, a number of districts have considered suing the state over this issue. “We have surveyed our membership over the years, and while everybody believes that we are not receiving adequate funding, as we get down to asking if they would participate in a lawsuit or use local funds to help finance litigation costs, the interest drops considerably,” Guillen said. “But always quite a few districts, usually the larger districts, are willing to move forward with litigation.” Rep. Mimi-Stewart, D-Albuquerque, a proponent of pouring more money into public schools, said by phone

that she is not surprised to hear that school districts would consider a lawsuit to ensure proper funding. Stewart said she hears that many districts in the state are “hurting.” “I’ve heard over and over again that they cannot pay basic expenses,” Stewart said. “I think we’re in trouble with funding schools in this state, especially since we are passing fairly punitive and reactionary measures to evaluate teachers based almost completely on Standards Based Assessment or other type of test scores and after not funding schools sufficiently for the last five years.” She noted that in 2008, the Legislature commissioned the American Institute for Research to compile a study of the state’s school-funding formula. That study suggested New Mexico increase its educational funding by more than 14 percent to meet “sufficient” standards. “At this point, I think the Legislature needs someone to force us to fund the schools sufficiently,” Stewart said. “I do believe the districts are in a very rough place, and it may take something like a lawsuit to get us to do the right thing.” A February 2013 NEA Today

article by Tim Walker noted that at least 10 states were involved in cases in which school districts were suing their states for adequate funding. In 2011, twothirds of Texas’ school districts joined together to sue the state, with a state district judge ruling in favor of the districts in February 2013. The case may be appealed at the state Supreme Court level, according to some media reports. New Mexico funds public schools through a complex per-unit formula, in which each student is valued at a number of units — 1.2 units for a high school student, for instance. This year’s unit value is $3,817, an increase of about $144 per unit from last year. There are about 12,800 students enrolled in Santa Fe Public Schools. But districts have to contend with increased pension contributions, insurance premiums, increased health care costs and a state-mandated 1 percent raise for teachers this coming year, which will wipe out some of the gains in that increase. Santa Fe Public Schools will hold a final public budget study session on May 13, with the school board voting on a final operating budget May 23.

Human children are dependent longer than the young of any other species. New research suggests that even the youngest infants have powerful learning abilities; that toddlers analyze statistics and do experiments; that preschoolers use discoveries to imagine alternative futures; and that young children have a sophisticated grasp of morality. Psychologist, philosopher, author, and mother Alison Gopnik surveys insights from psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy that suggest our prolonged period of childhood helplessness is responsible for our uniquely human consciousness, and asks whether babies hold the answers to our most profound and uniquely human questions about love, morality, exploration, and imagination.

Torture: Biking event raised $40,000 for nonprofits Continued from Page C-1 La Tierra Torture began in 1987 as a city of Santa Fe-sponsored event. After about a decade, the city stopped sponsoring the race, and it disappeared until 2006, said Brent Bonwell, one of the race organizers. The city is again sponsoring the popular event, which was started up again by Jan and Kim Bear, Bonwell and many other volunteers. The event has since raised $40,000 for several nonprofits, including Santa Fe Conservation Trust, Atalaya Search and Rescue and Bicycling Coalition of New Mexico. La Tierra Torture is the second race in the annual New Mexico Off-Road Series. Category 1 riders, the most experienced, raced a 9.5-mile loop of dirt track three times while Category 2 riders tackled the loop twice. Each loop featured more than 1,000 feet of climbing. Category 3 riders did the four-mile loop twice, climbing more than 600 feet total. The races all started at La Cuchara Trailhead. As the Category 3 race was about to start, Dustyn Ladewig stood nearby by giving lastminute encouragement to some junior riders he coaches from Albuquerque’s High Desert Bicycles team. He coaches

three boys and four girls, some of whom are now national champions. He said the team is one of only three (two in Albuquerque and one in Taos) youth mountain biking teams in the state. “We don’t chase boys, we pass them,” is the motto for the girls on the team, among them Morgan Fortin, Jesse Linder and Hannah Linder, who along with Hailey Fortin are the current national champions in the 24-hour mountain biking event for 12- to 13-year-olds. Fortin also is third in the nation in cross-country and second for cycle-cross in her age group.

Ladewig, an expert class mountain biker, said the team trains together once a week. The youth train three to four times a week on their own. “Cycling is still very much an individualized sport,” he said, as the mountain bikers launched into the race. “The team element gives them a sounding board and people to ride with, a sense of camaraderie.” He said all three junior teams in the state are gaining notice from the older, pro riders. “They’re recognizing the juniors as the next generation [of top riders],” he said. Clark Smith, 23, Hallie Brown, 25, and J.J. Bear, 23, said it was a

great race, and not just because Bear is the daughter of two of the race organizers. The three spend many weekends out of the year participating in either mountain biking or triathlon events.

Solar plane flies 1st leg of trip Jurors deliberate illegal licenses case Prosecutors accuse man of running ads for licenses in N.Y.

By Bob Seavey and Susan Montoya Bryan The Associated Press

PHOENIX — Alone in the single-seat cockpit and high above the American Southwest, pilot Bertrand Piccard could hear only his plane’s gear box and the quiet whine of four electric motors. No noisy jet engines. He’s flying Solar Impulse, considered the world’s most advanced sun-powered plane. Piccard piloted the craft for 20 hours, first cruising along the California coast after taking off from Moffett Field in Mountain View near San Francisco just after dawn Friday. He passed over Edwards Air Force Base, where other aviation milestones have been made, and then touched down early Saturday morning at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. He landed having used only three-quarters of the plane’s battery power. “It’s a little bit like being in a dream,” Piccard said as he stepped on the tarmac. The plane’s creators, Piccard and fellow pilot Andre Borschberg, said the trip is the first attempt by a solar airplane capable of flying day and night without fuel to fly across America. But Piccard said Saturday afternoon that even more

important than marking another aviation milestone is the hope that the journey will provide an exponential boost for interest in renewable energy and clean technologies. “If an airplane can fly day or night with no fuel, just on the sun’s power, of course it means that everybody in daily life can use this technology for his house, for heating and cooling systems, for lighting, for cars, for trucks. There’s so much we can do now to have a cleaner future,” Piccard said. From Phoenix, the aircraft

will travel to Dallas-Fort Worth airport in Texas, Lambert-St. Louis airport, Dulles airport in the Washington area and New York’s John F. Kennedy airport. Each flight leg will take about 19 to 25 hours, with 10-day stops in each city. Borschberg is hoping to pilot the last leg, which could afford him the chance to fly past the Statue of Liberty. The delicate, single-seat Solar Impulse flies around 40 mph and can’t go through clouds. It weighs about as much as a car, making it vulnerable to bad weather.

The New Mexico Motor Vehicle Division canceled all the driver’s licenses issued in this case after the arrest of Leong and three of his alleged customers, who prosecutors say flew into New Mexico to pick up their licenses. During the Leong’s trial, jurors heard from two of the individuals who sought licenses, Shu Sheng Lui and Fongyee Hiew. Their initial charges were dropped after they entered pleas to petty misdemeanors. In Leong’s case, prosecutors dropped some counts of the original indictment, and state District Judge Brett Loveless further whittled down the package that went to jurors. The charges include forgery, making a false affidavit, racketeering and conspiracy. Assistant District Attorney Joseph Spindle said four counts each relate to 27 people who applied for driver’s licenses with false affidavits of residence. Twenty-one of them listed addresses where Leong had signed the lease, most of them efficiency apartments where only a single resident was permitted by the property managers.

oday, Merlin W. Kampfer turns 87. He was born May 5, 1926, in Monclova, Ohio, to Elmer Franklin Kampfer and Ocia Malott. His parents had eight children, and six of Kampfer’s siblings are still living. His father supported the family as a farmer, while his mother tended to the needs of their children. He attended both the local elementary school and Monclova High School. When he was 17, he enlisted in the Navy during World War II. “My father only completed the fourth grade and didn’t know how to write, so my mother, who had an eighth-grade education, was the one who signed the necessary paperwork for me to enlist in the armed services, since I was too young to enlist on my own.” Kampfer served as a petty officer in the Navy in 1943. Seven days after he returned home from an assignment in Okinawa, Japan, he married his high school sweetheart, Paulina Ash. “We were married on the seventh day of my furlough, and then I had to report back to the ship, so we never had a honeymoon,” he said. In 1946, when Kampfer returned from military duty, he enrolled at Ohio State University, where he received his bachelor’s degree in science and chemistry. His dream was to become a doctor, but, he said, “I was broke, so I took a job as a chemical Merlin W.

TIME OUT

Horoscope HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, May 5, 2013: This year you focus on your long-term desires and goals. At times, you might want to verify that you really want what you are striving for. Remember that as we change, our wish list and goals also change. If you are single, you could meet someone you could nearly categorize as “a dream come true.” Take off your rose-colored shades every once in a while. If you are attached, the two of you enjoy spending a lot of time together, even if it is just doing chores. Aries can be contrary, and he or she brings out that trait in 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) HHHH You might feel insecure and not as sure of yourself as you would like to be. You could be difficult or moody as a result. This is just a phase, but keep in mind that others often live their day-to-day lives feeling as you do now. Tonight: Wait until the wee hours, then decide. This Week: You feel great as Monday comes along.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Your sense of direction in a meeting will be important, especially as those around you might not want to share as they normally do. It’s not that others want to make you feel left out; rather, it is more a result of their somber moods. Tonight: Go off and do your own thing. This Week: Not until Wednesday do you feel up to snuff. From that point on, you’ll feel great.

This Week: You are the star wherever you are. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Spend some quality time with a friend or loved one. Have a long brunch together. You will enjoy catching up on each other’s news. After getting a better perspective, you could decide to make a major change. Tonight: Wherever your friends are. This Week: Research different theories for how to approach a certain goal.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Take charge and find out what is really going on with an older relative or friend. You are able to make quite the difference in this person’s life. Know that your efforts will be greatly appreciated. Tonight: Out with friends. This Week: Go for what is important the first two days of the week.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Make sure that you hook up with some friends you really care about. You often find that you are most relaxed when you’re with these people. Someone you meet today could be very intense. Tonight: Dinner out with a special friend. This Week: A partner or loved one whispers news in your ear.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You will want to do something different. Optimism surrounds the moment. Reach out to someone you have not been around much but who you share a lot of your life with. Know what you want from a situation. Tap into your creativity. Tonight: In the limelight.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Be honest with yourself about the implications of deciding to change direction or alter plans. You could discover that a family member is irritated, as he or she has not had enough time with you. Tonight: Add more fun to a relationship. This Week: Be ready to answer some provocative questions.

Today’s answers

Scratch pad

ast month, tough-guy sports journalist Buzz Bissinger revealed himself to be not just a clotheshorse, but a clotheshorse’s ass. In an article in GQ, Bissinger, bestselling author of Friday Night Lights — confessed to being a shopaholic who had spent about a half-million dollars on duds in the past three years alone. He owns 81 leather jackets, 75 pairs of boots, 41 pairs of leather pants, including one that cost more than $5,000. First, I laughed derisively, then I realized that confessions from journalists might sell well. Hey, GQ: You can have this one for what you paid Buzz. I once spent $37 in one day on underpants alone. It was a buying binge! After not having purchased any undergarGene ments for at least nine years, I found Weingarten myself down to two pairs, each with a The Washington waistband as limp as a noodle. One pair Post had a hole that was not part of the original tailoring, and was big enough to pass a summer squash through. So, $37. That was in 2007. I have not gone underpants-shopping since and am back to an all-noodle-waist ensemble. I once very reluctantly purchased two neckties for $75 apiece. The experience was like gouging out my heart with a trowel. My wife made me do it — she was with me, picked out the ties, produced the plastic and signed for it — because she knew I’d never see it through on my own. She did this because I was about to go on a book tour, and she refused to permit me to be on TV wearing any of the neckties in my closet, which I had purchased over the years for $3 apiece (two for $5!) from street vendors. She contended they had the structural quality and insipid sheen of aluminum foil. She contended that the colors were as far from nature as those found on Barbie’s Dreamhouse, or in certain cheap lollipops. Eight years later, I still own those two $75 ties but seldom wear them for fear that a dining mishap will jeopardize my investment. Every year I am tempted to depreciate these ties on my taxes. All my shirts are either white or blue. All my dress pants are either khaki or black. That is because, according to my wife, were I allowed more options I would make bad choices. Yes, this is infantilizing, but I embrace it. Because she is right. Bissinger’s tell-all account did not end with his fetishistic clothing habits. He also revealed a fetishistic, kinked-up sexual adventurousness that I cannot elaborate on here. Suffice it to say, GQ, that I, too, have my kinks. I believe I am the only man in the world who has visited prostitutes not once but twice, ponied up each time, and didn’t get any sex. Both were for newspaper stories. On the second occasion, the lady — in a shimmery, see-through cocktail dress and, so far as I could tell, no underwear — listened to me earnestly explain that I wanted her help in massaging away a crick in my neck, considered this carefully, and laughed out loud. Like Jude Law, Jon Hamm and many other male celebrities, I, too, have received panties in the mail, anonymously, from my fans. It has actually happened three times. I am pretty sure that none of these was a serious effort to entice me into a rendezvous. I am pretty sure, in fact, they were all jokes. I say this because the panties were all large enough to serve as tarpaulins for shipping washing machines. So, that’s it, GQ. Publish this sucker, if you dare. Maybe your tough guy Buzz isn’t going to like what I said about him. Maybe he wants a piece of me. He knows where to find me. I’ll be right here, pal, waiting, 24-7. Well, 16-7. I’m usually in bed by 9.

orb idles before Derby win Favored bay colt comes from behind, while Golden Soul ends in 2nd By Beth Harris

The Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Orb was so far behind a wall of horses at the Kentucky Derby that even his jockey wasn’t sure he could master the

muddy track and make a run for the roses. “I was really far back,” Joel Rosario said. “I said hopefully he can go faster than that. I was saying maybe I was too far back, but it was so easy.” The bay colt made it look that way Saturday, splashing through the slop to win the Derby by 2 1/2 lengths and giving Hall of Fame trainer Shug McGaughey his first victory in the 3-year-old classic.

Long shot Golden Soul was second with Revolutionary third, while Normandy Invasion faded to fourth. Orb, the 5-1 favorite, broke from the No. 16 post and bided his time near the back of the pack early, while Palace Malice set a blistering pace in the muck. Orb was still idling in 16th place a half-mile into the race. On the turn for home, Rosario moved him past 11 horses into striking position in the

The only question left was whether he could sustain his momentum on a surface that resembled creamy peanut butter. “He was very relaxed, it’s exactly what I wanted,” Rosario said.

n the highly individualized sport of tennis, doubles is the last bastion of teamwork. Strong friendships among two pairs were the foundation that led to doubles success for teams from Los Alamos and Santa Fe High in the District 2AAAA Tournament on Saturday at Capital High School. Lady Hilltoppers seniors Gillian Hsieh-Ratliff and Madeline Margevicius defeated fellow teammates Susanna Lucido and Colleen Fitzsimmons 6-2, 6-1 for the girls championship, while Demons Warren Fulgenzi Jr. and Brandon Mutz beat Los Alamos’ Nikita Belooussov and Dalton

Smith 6-1, 6-1 for the boys title. The path for the No. 1-seeded Hsieh-Ratliff/Margevicius tandem began in 2008 when the two were in eighth grade. “We were actually singles players,” Hsieh-Ratliff said and laughed. “[Los Alamos head coach] Bruce Cotrell did not think we could play doubles, so the joke’s on him.” Hsieh-Ratliff and Margevicius periodically played doubles for the Lady Hilltoppers in the No. 3 doubles slot and bonded off the court, doing everything from grabbing lunch together to relaxing at each other’s homes. Before long, the team was broken up when Margevicius’ father, Bob, moved the family to Arlington, Va., to

work for the Department of Energy for two years before Madeline’s freshman year. “I remember the first couple of months when [Madeline] was gone, we would literally call each other every weekend,” Hsieh-Ratliff said. “Her tennis was in the fall, so I would call and say, ‘How was your match? How was your tournament? How’d you do?’ ” Margevicius refined her tennis ability while playing for Bishop O’Connell during her freshman and sophomore years before returning to Los Alamos and rekindling her partnership with Hsieh-Ratliff for their junior season. “It was like what moving was, it was hard and moving back was hard,”

Margevicius said, who believes their friendship has helped them grow into one of the strongest doubles teams in the North. Hsieh-Ratliff and Margevicius took third place at last year’s state tournament and hope to better their finish next week. The boys pair of Fulgenzi and Mutz didn’t become a doubles team until the 2013 season, but it’s equally as dangerous. The secret lies in their dedication. “Every day we just work out with my dad [tennis professional Warren Fulgenzi Sr.] and we’ve come a long way since the beginning of the year,” said Fulgenzi, who won the AAAA

She took on both for a vinism than bullfighting, and if simple reason: a passion for the sport. that’s true today, imagine the courage The Indiana-born, Texas-raised of Patricia McCormick, McCormick fell in love who in 1951 became the with bullfighting during a first American woman to family vacation to Mexico become a professional bullCity when she was 7.

In the bullrings of Mexico and When McCormick, who died in late March at 83, entered the ring, she Venezuela, McCormick, as a woman, was something different, but she was always faced two opponents — the

no novelty act. Unlike some bullfighters of her gender, she insisted on fighting the same large bulls as did the men — and, like the men, she fought on foot instead of on horseback. In her career, McCormick was gored six times — most seriously in 1954 in Ciudad Acuña, the Mexican sister city of Del Rio, Texas. “The horn went right up my stomach,” she told the Los Angeles Times in 1989. “The bull carried me around the ring for a minute, impaled on his horns.” A priest gave her last rites and had her carried across the border so she could “die in her own country.” Somehow, she beat the odds and survived, and continued her career for eight more years. The bullfighting critic Rafael Solana called McCormick “the most courageous woman I have ever seen.”

Sports information: James Barron, 986-3045, jbarron@sfnewmexican.com Design and headlines: Elizabeth Lauer, ehlauer@sfnewmexican.com

But she was more than courageous — she was good. “She fights larger bulls than does any other woman, a torero said in 1966, “… and she kills well. Her only defect is that she is a woman.” That “defect” kept her from ascending to bullfighting’s highest rank. For that, she needed money she didn’t have and the sponsorship of a matador, which she would never get. Still, her bravery and her skill won over many aficionados. “She was prestige,” Fred Renk, the father of a matador and a breeder of fighting bulls, told the Times. “She was real prestige. When she walked into the bullring, people cheered and she’d just bow her head.” Said one top matador in 1963, “Had she not been born a woman, she might have been better than any of us.”

Another hall of fame has come calling for Doug Moses. Good thing for him he’s got plenty of material to lean on when it comes to preparing his induction speech. The current head wrestling coach at New Mexico Highlands University has been named one of five members of the 2012 Amateur Athletic Union Wrestling Hall of Fame. The induction ceremony will take place June 29 in Orlando during the AAU Scholastic Duals. Moses, 64, has more than 30 years experience coaching at the college level. He’s been around so long that he was deeply rooted in the sport back when the AAU was the country’s governing body for amateur wrestling. That involvement has made him something of a fixture in Rocky Mountain region. He spent 20 years as head coach at what was then Southern Colorado University (now Colorado State-Pueblo). Before that, he was a national champion wrestler and later an assistant coach at Adams State. He’s been at NMHU since the school revived its dormant program in 2005. Over the years, he has been inducted into the halls of fame for Adams State, Southern Colorado and the NCAA Division II Coaches Association. And now this. When reviewing his career, it’s not his personal history he talks about. For him it’s all about he struggle. “It’s been a battle, an uphill fight that never ends,” Moses says. “There’s a lot that goes into coaching college wrestling. It’s the recruiting, the constant fight for money, the pursuit for more support and more opportunities.” For an Iowa native like Moses, wrestling is as key to the sporting landscape as any other organized activity. Probably more so. He leans on his past, recalling the days when he and wrestling icon Dan Gable grew up in the same town and shared the same mat in high school. “Wrestling’s one of the oldest and greatest sports there is; it’s history is drawn on cave walls and old paintings from as far back as anyone can remember,” he says. “It’s a beautiful sport. My hope is that other people see it like I do.” The truth is, not many do. Wrestling has been the favorite target for college administrators looking to trim fat and balance athletic budgets in recent decades. With the enforcement of Title IX, a sport that doesn’t traditionally generate revenue nor offer opportunities for women, it’s been suffering a long, steady decline. NMHU eliminated the sport while Moses was the coach at Southern Colorado. After two decades with Moses at the helm, USC also dropped it. “It was like a death in the family,” Moses says. “To be there that long, to do all that work and have that kind of success and then have it removed — it was one of the worst feelings I’ve ever had.” Moses settled at Highlands eight years ago but again found himself fighting for survival when the school

District 4AA meet

Sidra Hsieh-Ratliff of Los Alamos High School plays during a District 2AAAA Tournament singles game Saturday at Capital High School. LUIS SÁNCHEZ SATURNO/THE NEW MEXICAN

Tennis: Martinez beats S.F. High’s Medina Continued from Page D-1 doubles title with Rafael Garcia last spring. “All the time, after school, every day.” Not even match day brings a halt to the training. After Fulgenzi and Mutz won their semifinal match, both grabbed a jump rope and hopped for about 10 minutes to stay loose. Their effort has paid dividends, like earning the No. 1 seed for the district tournament and reputation as the top doubles team in the North. “He’s consistent and you always know he’s going to get the ball back, he’s reliable,” Mutz said of Fulgenzi. “I don’t really

try to think about [the pressure], I just try to stay focused and just think one point at a time.” The two won’t settle for anything less than a state championship. “We’re just going to put in hard work and any situation we have at state we’ll be ready for it,” Fulgenzi said. Rounding out the Day 2 champions in singles were Española Valley’s Adrian Martinez, who defeated Edward Medina of Santa Fe High 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 on the boys side. Greta Miller of Santa Fe High knocked off Lady Hilltoppers’ Sidra Hsieh-Ratliff 6-3, 6-2 in the girls draw. All third-place finishers clinched a spot

in the state tournament as well. Los Alamos had three draws to earn the bronze with Daniel Dahl and Steven McCrory in boys doubles, Laura Whicker and Hannah Cunningham in girls doubles as well as Nasim Andrews in girls singles. Josh Martinez of Española placed third in boys singles. In the team tournament, Santa Fe High won the boys district title 5-2 over Los Alamos, while the Lady Hilltoppers took the girls crown 6-0 over the Lady Sundevils. All will head to Albuquerque for the state tennis tournament at the Jerry Kline Complex from Wednesday to Saturday.

PREP BASEBALL ROUNDUP

Pecos splits doubleheader in nondistrict game The New Mexican

Every little bit helps. The Pecos baseball team picked up a doubleheader split at nondistrict rival Estancia on Saturday afternoon, dropping the opener 9-4 but winning Game 2, 9-6. The Panthers finish the regular season 16-9 overall. They are the District 6AA champs, having won seven of eight games in league play. It all has head coach Augie Ruiz thinking his team should be seeded anywhere between No. 8 and No. 10 when the pairings for the Class AA State Tournament are revealed on Sunday afternoon. “I’d like it to be higher, sure, but it’s hard to justify it when you look at that one southern district (4AA) that has all the good teams,” he said, referring to Dexter, Eunice, New Mexico Military Institute

and Loving. All four teams are sitting ahead of Pecos in the most recent MaxPreps.com power rankings. The Panthers are No. 9. The top eight seeds earn home games in next week’s first round. Pitcher Brandon Anaya (5-2) was tagged with the loss in Saturday’s Game 1. He needed over 100 pitches to get into the fifth inning, but it was that frame that brought the Panthers down. A leadoff single was followed by four straight walks as the Bears scored five times. They had led 4-3 before it began. Johnny Vigil and Anaya were both 1-for3. Vigil drove in a pair of runs, but no Pecos batter had more than one hit. In Game 2, Jason Henderson went 3-for-5 with two runs scored while designated hitter Chris Vigil had a pair of hits and an RBI. The Panthers had 12 hits in the

game, more than enough to make a winner out of starting pitcher Johnny Vigil (4-2). The Panthers scored one run in the first inning, then four apiece in the fourth and sixth. MONTE DEl SOl 11, MORA 1 (6) The Dragons’ last statement before the Class AA seeding and selection committee convenes involved a lot of Peter Bartlett. The junior went 3-for-3 with two RBIs, three stolen bases and three runs scored, and fired a two-hitter from the hill with 13 strikeouts in the District 6AA finale. “It was great to get Peter some work there,” said Frank Lucero, Monte del Sol head coach. “He’s going to be our go-to guy.” Not to be overlooked was Antonio Tapia, who had two hits, two RBIs and scored twice. Monte del Sol finished 17-5, 5-3.

Highlands salvages nightcap after losing first game in doubleheader The final day of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference’s baseball regular season will have plenty of intrigue for New Mexico Highlands University. The Cowboys need a doubleheader sweep at Metro State plus a loss by Colorado StatePueblo in order to nail down the championship of the Plains Division race and the No. 2 seed in next week’s RMAC Tournament in Grand Junction, Colo. NMHU split a doubleheader on Saturday at Metro State, losing the opener 12-8 but salvaging the nightcap, 8-5. Coupled

with CSU-Pueblo’s sweep of Adams State, Highlands (27-21, 23-15) fell out of first place in the Plains Division. The Cowboys trail the ThunderWolves (27-19, 23-14) by half a game entering the final day of the season. NMHU starts its doubleheader at 11 a.m. in Denver. CSU-Pueblo plays a single game against Adams State at noon. The ThunderWolves can clinch the division title with a win since they would have a higher winning percentage in conference play than NMHU even if the Cowboys sweep. Highlands led Saturday’s first

game 8-7 after plating four runs in the top of the eighth inning. The bullpen couldn’t hold the lead, however, as the Roadrunners answered with five runs off pitchers Ray Torres, Gavin Hite and Edgar Vela in the bottom of the eighth. Hite (1-1) took the loss after surrendering seven hits, six runs and a walk in his 31/3 innings of work. Shortstop Tyler Hayes went 3-for-3 with two runs scored and an RBI for NMHU. Cory Falvey chipped in with a threerun home run while Jordan Falcon had two hits and a pair of RBIs.

The Cowboys rallied from an early 2-0 hole in Game 2. They scored three runs in the top of the fifth to take the lead, then scored four in the seventh to snap a 4-all tie. Daniel Clark (3-0) got the win in relief. He spelled starter Chris Prokupek, tossing the final three innings and allowing four hits and one earned run. Falvey had two RBI and Thomas Lyons three. They both had two hits while leadoff man Jordan Chavez went 2-for-3 with a run scored, a walk and a stolen base. The New Mexican

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Moses: Seven wrestlers ready to graduate Continued from Page D-1 announced plans to kill the sport in 2010. Moses and Co. successfully lobbied for a stay, but the entire experience has been a trying one for a man who has become a premier ambassador for his beloved sport. “Sometimes it’s like squeezing blood from a turnip,” he says. “Fact is, in recruiting we’ve got something people want. Wrestling is a hugely popular sport in high school and the younger levels but there aren’t that many colleges that offer it. People come to us for the chance to compete, but finding the money to make that happen is a 24/7 thing. It really is tough.”

Moses had 35 wrestlers on his roster this past season and seven of them are set to graduate from NMHU next week. By his count, the number of students roaming the Las Vegas, N.M., campus with direct ties to the Cowboys’ program — he’s including girlfriends, friends and family members as part of that count — is 50 full-time students or more. “That’s additional revenue from tuition for the school from kids who otherwise would never be at Highlands,” he says. “That’s one of the reasons I do this, but there are so many more. Like I say, I enjoy coaching — but there’s so much more that’s involved with it.”

And now he’s getting another nod from a hall of fame selection committee for his commitment to the sport. It’s an honor, he says, to earn that recognition. “Well, sometimes you feel like all you do is toil and nobody’s noticing,” he says. “It’s nice to know there are people out there watching. It’s a good feeling. The fight has been worth it.” Sooner or later the fight will come to an end. Exactly when, Moses doesn’t know. “I can’t say I’ll do this another year, or until I’m 68 or 78,” he says. “I enjoy getting up every day doing this. As long as I have that, I’ll be here until they tell me to leave.”

u The fourth annual Santa Fe Preparatory camp is June 3-7 from 9 a.m.-noon in Prep Gymnasium. It is for boys and girls between the ages of 10-15, and cost is $100 per participant. Instruction is led by the Prep coaching staff and former players. For more information, call Dan Van Essen at 310-2631. u The Santa Fe University of Art and Design is holding a basketball camp for children from grades 5-8 from June 3-7 from 8 a.m.noon in the Driscoll Center.

GOLF ROUNDUP

Mickelson, Watney tied, but Rory has a chance The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Phil Mickelson and Nick Watney wound up tied for the lead Saturday in the Wells Fargo Championship, minus the separation from the rest of the field. Mickelson hit a shot out-of-bounds on the 15th hole and hit another shot that struck a spectator in the head, costing him three shots over the last four holes at Quail Hollow in his round of 1-over 73. Watney hit a semishank with a 6-iron on the par-3 17th, took double bogey and had to settle for a 71. It felt like a small consolation that they were tied at 8-under 208, one shot ahead of George McNeill, who

had his share of trouble down the stretch for a 72. Instead of pulling away from the pack, their mistakes in a wild final hour allowed a dozen players to get within three shots of the lead. One of them was Rory McIlroy, who shot 73 and missed seven putts from the 5-foot range or closer, which was no way to celebrate his 24th birthday. McIlroy ranked 82nd out of the 83 players who made the 36-hole cut in the key putting statistic, yet he still goes into the final round with a good chance for his first win of the year. KINGSMILL CHAMPIONSHIP In Williamsburg, Va., two-time champion Cristie Kerr shot a 5-under 66 to take a two-stroke lead over sec-

ond-ranked Stacy Lewis and Suzann Pettersen after the third round of the LPGA Tour’s Kingsmill Championship. Kerr, the only two-time winner at the River Course, made six birdies to reach 10-under 203. She took command on a day when seven players shared the lead at one point or another. Lewis shot a 69, and Pettersen, the 2007 champion, had a 68. Angela Stanford was three strokes back after a 70, and Ilhee Lee was fifth at 6 under after an all-over-the-place 69. Ariya Jutanugarn, the 17-year-old Thai player who led after each of the first two rounds, had three bogeys and a birdie on her first four holes and fought a balky putter for a 73 that left her five shots back, where she was tied with Lizette Salas, whose bogeyfree 65 was the best round of the day.

INSPERITY CHAMPIONSHIP In The Woodlands, Texas, Gene Sauers chipped in for birdie on the par-4 17th a day after making a double bogey on the hole, and finished with a 6-under 66 to take a two-stroke lead in the Champions Tour’s Insperity Championship. Sauers hit into the water on the 17th hole Friday, but atoned for the mistake Saturday with a 25-yard chip. The 50-year-old Sauers, a three-time winner on the PGA Tour who is making his 10th career start on the 50-andover tour, had an 8-under 136 total at The Woodlands Country Club. First-round leader Mike Goodes was second after his second straight 69. CHINA OPEN In Tianjin, China, Australia’s Brett

Rumford of Australia shot a 3-under 69 to take a one-stroke lead in the China Open, putting him in position for his second European Tour victory in two weeks. The Ballantine’s Championship winner Sunday in South Korea last week, Rumford was 12 under at Binhai Lake. Finland’s Mikko Ilonen was second after a 73. INDONESIAN MASTERS In Jakarta, Indonesia, South African star Ernie Els shot a 4-under 68 move within a stroke of leader Daisuke Kataoka of Japan after the third round of the Asian Tour’s Indonesian Masters. Kataoka had a 66 to reach 11 under at Royale Jakarta Golf Club. Australia’s Bernd Wiesberger had a 67 to share second place with Els.

NHL ROUNDUP

Bulls beat Nets in Game 7

Capitals sweep at home, defeat Rangers

By Brian Mahoney

The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Joakim Noah had 24 points and 14 rebounds, Marco Belinelli also scored 24 points and the Chicago Bulls beat the Bulls 99 Brooklyn Nets 93 Nets 99-93 on Saturday night in Game 7 of their first-round series. Carlos Boozer added 17 points as the Bulls shook off injuries to two starters and every run the Nets tried to make in the second half to win a Game 7 on the road for the first time in franchise history. They advanced to a second-round series against defending champion Miami that starts Monday night. The Bulls opened a 17-point halftime lead with a rare offensive outburst, and found a way to get big baskets every time the Nets pulled close to win the NBA’s only do-or-die game of the first round. Deron Williams had 24 points, seven assists and six rebounds for the Nets. They were trying to become the ninth NBA team to win a series after trailing 3-1. But they had a horrendous first-half defensive performance and Joe Johnson was bad all game on offense, finishing with six points on 2-of14 shooting, including 1 of 9 from 3-point range. With Luol Deng (illness) and Kirk Hinrich (bruised left calf) out again, the Bulls leaned on Noah, who could barely play when the series started but logged 41 minutes and shot 12 of 17, then still had enough energy to climb over the baseline seats for a long embrace with his mother. Noah, who grew up and played in high school here, helped the Bulls spoil the Nets’ first home Game 7 in franchise history at the end of their first season in Brooklyn. They had played only one Game 7 in all their years while they were based in New Jer-

sey, falling at Detroit in 2004. Chicago improved to 1-6 in road Game 7s. Deng, tested for meningitis earlier in the week, was back in the hospital Friday night and unable to travel. Hinrich warm up in hopes of playing before he was ruled out. It didn’t matter to the Bulls, who backed up coach Tom Thibodeau’s vow that they would have no excuses and play well. Coming out ready to work, the Bulls got their first two baskets on offensive rebounds by Boozer and Noah, and they led most of the first quarter before bringing a 29-25 lead to the second on Taj Gibson’s jumper with 0.8 seconds left.

It was 40-36 before the Bulls took control with solid offensive execution and poor Nets defense. Noah had consecutive baskets before seldomused Daequan Cook made a 3-pointer to cap an 11-2 run, and after a basket by Andray Blatche, Boozer, Robinson and Noah ran off the next six points to give Chicago a 57-40 lead as the crowd began to boo. The Bulls capped it with a stunningly easy dunk by Boozer with 1.2 seconds left off an inbounds pass, sending the Bulls to the locker room with a 61-44 advantage. Brooklyn burst out of the locker room with a 10-4 run, and back-to-back 3-pointers

later in the third period by Gerald Wallace kicked off an 11-2 surge that got the Nets within 69-65 on Williams’ free throw with 5:29 left. Jimmy Butler hit a 3-pointer and Robinson scored to steady the Bulls and push the lead back to nine, and they led 82-75 after three. The Nets opened the fourth with just one point in the first five minutes as consecutive baskets by Boozer pushed the lead back into double digits. The Nets kept trying to get back in it, getting it all the way down to four on a 3-pointer by Williams with 26 seconds left, but Belinelli hit four free throws from there.

Derby: Surge of late bets favors winner Continued from Page D-1 Churchill Downs, Normandy Invasion had the lead. But Orb was gearing up and prevailed in the deep stretch, carrying Rosario to his first Derby win. “Perfect trip. I stayed on the outside I don’t want to be too wide on the first turn. I was hoping somebody in the middle [of the race] didn’t push me wide,” he said. Orb ran the 1¼ miles in 2:02.89 Orb paid $12.80, $7.40 and $5.40. Golden Soul, a 34-1 shot, returned $38.60 and $19.40 while Revolutionary paid $5.40 to show. The 62-year-old McGaughey said the victory meant everything to him. “I’m thrilled to death for [the owners], thrilled to death for the people who put so much time into this horse, and, of course, I’m thrilled to death for me,” he said. Todd Pletcher had a record-tying five runners. Revolutionary was the best of the “Todd Squad,” followed by Charming Kitten (ninth), Overanalyze (11th), Palace Malice (12th) and Verrazano (14th). Goldencents, owned in part by Rick

Pitino, coach of Louisville’s national basketball champions, finished 17th. His jockey, Kevin Krigger, was trying to become the first black rider to win the race since 1902. Rosie Napravnik was also bidding to make history as the first woman to win the world’s biggest horse race. She finished fifth aboard Mylute, the highest finish by a female rider. D. Wayne Lukas, who won the Derby four times and would have been the oldest trainer to saddle a winner, sent out two runners. Oxbow, with three-time Derby winning jockey Gary Stevens aboard, finished sixth. Will Take Charge was eighth. Lines of Battle from Ireland finished seventh, denying European champion trainer Aidan O’Brien the international victory. The rain that pelted the track earlier in the day had stopped by the time 19 horses paraded to the post for the 139th Derby. The crowd of 151,616 must have known something, with a surge of late money sending Orb off as the favorite after Revolutionary owned that position most

of the day. Winning co-owners Stuart Janney and Ogden Mills “Dinny” Phipps scored their first Derby victory. The first cousins are among the sport’s blue bloods that include the old-money Whitney and Vanderbilt families. Being from Lexington, the heart of Kentucky’s horse country, McGaughey figured to be a regular Derby participant. But Orb was just his second starter since 1989, when McGaughey watched Easy Goer lose to Sunday Silence. Orb also was the second Derby starter for both Janney and Phipps, whose previous entries were in 1988 and 1989. Their family wealth allows them to race the horses they breed, unlike the majority of current owners who are involved through partnerships that split up the exorbitant costs of the sport. The cousins’ grandfather, Henry Phipps, founded wealth management firm Bessemer Trust in 1907. Janney serves as chairman, while Dinny Phipps is its director. He also chairs The Jockey Club, the sport’s governing body that registers thoroughbreds, while Janney is vice chairman.

WASHINGTON — Henrik Lundqvist and Braden Holtby kicked, swiped, caught and otherwise kept getting in the way of the puck, matching each other save-forCapitals 1 save for a Rangers 0 second shy of 68 minutes, until Mike Green scored the power-play goal in overtime that gave the Washington Capitals a sweep at home to open their playoff series against the New York Rangers. Green nailed a one-timer from high in the slot on a feed from Mike Ribeiro precisely at the eight-minute mark of the extra period, Holtby made 24 saves for his first career playoff shutout, and the Capitals beat the Rangers 1-0 Saturday to take a 2-0 series lead in the Eastern Conference playoffs. With Rangers defenseman Ryan McDonagh in the penalty box for delay of game, having lifted the puck over the glass in New York’s defensive zone, the Capitals took advantage of their first power play since the first period. Ribeiro faked a slap shot, and then pushed the puck to Green, who beat Lundqvist to the glove side. Game 3 is Monday in New York. Henrik Lundqvist made 37

saves for the Rangers. Holtby has saved 59 of 60 shots in the series, including 35 of 36 in Thursday’s 3-1 win in Game 1. MAPLE LEAfS 4, bRuINS 2 In Boston, Joffrey Lupul scored two goals and Toronto got a win over Boston that evened the first-round series at one game. The Maple Leafs played aggressively from the start after a weak performance in a 4-1 loss in which the Bruins were much more physical. But that changed early in Game 2 as Toronto delivered 22 hits in the first period to just 10 for Boston. DuCKS 4, RED WINGS 0 In Detroit, Nick Bonino scored for Anaheim on a second-period power play — 18 seconds after Detroit’s Justin Abdelkader was ejected for a violent hit on Toni Lydman — and the Ducks went on to a victory to take a 2-1 series lead over the Red Wings in the Western Conference playoffs. Abdelkader appeared to catch Lydman square in the side of the head with his left shoulder, and he was given a major penalty for charging and a game misconduct with 4:49 remaining in the second. The Ducks immediately took advantage when Bonino backhanded a shot past goalie Jimmy Howard from pointblank range.

Tigers defeat Astros The Associated Press

HOUSTON — Miguel Cabrera hit two home runs and tied a career high with six RBIs, leading the Detroit Tigers over the Houston Astros 17-2 on Saturday night. Cabrera went 4 for 4 with a walk. Last year’s Triple Crown winner is hitting .390 this season. The Tigers have won eight of nine. Houston has lost five in a row. Max Scherzer (4-0) gave up one run and three hits while striking out eight in eight innings. Lucas Harrell (3-3) gave up eight runs in 4 1-3 innings. MARINERS 8, BLUE JAYS 1 In Toronto, Dustin Ackley hit his first career grand slam, Michael Saunders homered twice and the Seattle Mariners roughed up reigning NL Cy Young winner R.A. Dickey, beating the struggling Toronto Blue Jays. Pitching on an extra day of rest as he tried to overcome neck and back soreness, Dickey (2-5) lost his third straight start. He allowed six hits, including a season-high three home runs. ORIOLES 5, ANGELS 4 (10) In Anaheim, Calif., Steve Pearce’s RBI single with two outs in the 10th inning lifted the Baltimore Orioles over the Los Angeles Angels. Baltimore also got homers from Manny Machado, J.J. Hardy and Nolan Reimold. Freddy Garcia dazzled in his Orioles’ debut, holding the Angels hitless until Erick Aybar had a leadoff single in the seventh. RANGERS 5, RED SOX 1 In Arlington, Texas, Craig Gentry had an infield hit that produced two runs and later hit a two-run homer in Texas’ victory over Boston. The Rangers broke a 1-1 tie and went ahead to stay on the speedy Gentry’s infield hit in the fourth. He added his first homer in the eighth. INDIANS 7, TWINS 3 In Cleveland, Scott Kazmir earned his first victory in three seasons, Nick Swisher homered in his first at-bat since missing three games with a sore shoulder and the Cleveland Indians beat Minnesota for their sixth straight victory. Kazmir (1-1), a two-time AL All-Star who pitched in an independent league last season, allowed two runs in six innings. It was his first win since beating Tampa Bay on Sept. 19, 2010, while with the Angels. YANKEES 4, ATHLETICS 2 In New York, Phil Hughes pitched eight shutout innings of four-hit ball for his first win of the season, and the New York Yankees beat the Oakland Athletics. Chris Stewart and Lyle Overbay homered against Bartolo Colon (3-1), sending the A’s to their only loss in the righthander’s six starts this year. ROYALS 2, WHITE SOX 0 In Kansas City, Mo., Jeremy Guthrie ran his unbeaten streak to a club-record 17 consecutive starts with a four-hitter in the Kansas City Royals’ win over the Chicago White Sox.

Isotopes fall to New Orleans It was not the day to be a baserunner at Isotopes Park. The Albuquerque Isotopes and the New Orleans Zephyrs combined for a 4-for-33 effort with runners in scoring position, but New Orleans did enough to eke out a 6-5 win in Pacific Coast League baseball on Saturday night. The Zephyrs (13-14) scored twice in the second, third and fifth innings each for a 6-1 lead. The Isotopes (16-13) got within 6-5 thanks in part to a solo home run from Scott Van Slyke and a two-run shot by Nick “Chili” Buss in the seventh. However, Albuquerque stranded runners at second and third base with one out in the eighth. The New Mexican

NATIONAL LEAGUE

Fernandez has first major league win with Marlins The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — Jose Fernandez pitched one-hit ball and struck out nine in seven dominant innings, getting his first major league win in the Miami Marlins’ 2-0 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday night. Marcell Ozuna hit his first career homer and Chris Valaika connected for the first time in three years to stop Cole Hamels (1-4). Fernandez (1-2) allowed just a single by Freddy Galvis up the middle in the first. He then retired the next 17 batters. Fernandez walked Galvis in the seventh, and followed that up by striking out Chase Utley, Ryan Howard and Delmon Young. The 20-year-old Fernandez was lifted after throwing 82 pitches. Mike Dunn worked a

perfect eighth and Steve Cishek finished off the one-hitter to get his fourth save in five tries. NATIONALS 5, PIRATES 4 In Pittsburgh, Stephen Strasburg struck out eight in seven innings and Washington won a game he started for the first time since opening day. Tyler Moore hit a go-ahead sacrifice fly in the top of the ninth inning off Tony Watson (1-1). Wilson Ramos’ RBI single in the sixth tied the game at 4 after Pittsburgh built a two-run lead. DIAMONDBACKS 8, PADRES 1 In San Diego, Patrick Corbin pitched seven solid innings and Arizona snapped its seasonhigh four-game losing streak. Corbin (4-0) gave up one run and five hits while striking out seven. He walked three while his ERA dropped to 1.80. Corbin has opened the season by pitching at least six innings and allowing two or fewer runs

in his six starts — all Arizona victories. CARDINALS 7, BREWERS 6 In Milwaukee, Jon Jay homered and drove in the go-ahead run in the ninth, and Allen Craig and Daniel Descalso each hit home runs to power St. Louis. Shane Robinson singled to center off Jim Henderson (2-1) and took second on center fielder Carlos Gomez’s fielding error. Robinson stole third and scored when Jay singled up the middle. Jay hit a three-run home run in the second, Craig connected for a solo shot in the sixth and Descalso put the Cardinals ahead with a two-run homer in the seventh. The Brewers trailed by one in the eighth when they got one-out singles that put runners on the corners. Norichika Aoki dropped a perfect bunt as pinch-runner Jeff Bianchi raced home and slid feet first, avoiding catcher Yadier Molina’s tag.

Seth Maness (1-0) came on and got the Cardinals out of the jam, getting Jean Segura to hit into a double play. REDS 6, CUBS 4 In Chicago, Todd Frazier and Devin Mesoraco each had a sacrifice fly in a four-run eighth inning, and Cincinnati rallied for the victory over Chicago. Cincinnati had just one hit in the decisive rally, but took advantage of another woeful outing by reliever Carlos Marmol to secure its first winning road series of the season. The Reds held on for a 6-5 victory in the opener on Friday when Darwin Barney struck out with the bases loaded to end the game. Alfonso Soriano hit a pair of two-run homers for the Cubs, who have lost four of five. It was Soriano’s 31st career multihomer game. Shin-Soo Choo homered on the first pitch of the game. Jeff Samardzija went on to pitch six effective innings for Chicago.

James Russell got three outs before Marmol (2-2) came on to begin the eighth with a 4-2 lead. It was Marmol’s 453rd relief appearance with the Cubs, snapping a tie with Lee Smith for the franchise record. ROCKIES 9, RAYS 3 In Denver, Carlos Gonzalez hit a go-ahead homer in the fifth and rookie Nolan Arenado added a grand slam, lifting Colorado over Tampa Bay in David Price’s first start since his runin with umpire Tom Hallion. Jon Garland (3-2) threw five solid innings and surrendered three runs to help the Rockies snap an 11-game home skid in interleague play. Arenado broke open a tight game when he lined a curveball from Price (1-3) into the left field seats in the seventh. It was his first career grand slam. Price didn’t have his best stuff, surrendering nine earned runs in 6⅔ innings.

Two Wheel Traveling

Saturday, May 11 at 5 pm Love to ride your bike? Wish you had a new road every day? Two wheel traveling is your ticket to a different kind of adventure. Many people don’t consider that their bicycle can take them beyond a day. This slide presentation will inspire you and get you thinking about what’s possible, from simply pedaling off with a rack pack and credit card to taking on the fully loaded challenge. Like backpacking, this is just bike-packing, and you don’t even have to carry a tent. Self-contained bicycle touring is easier on your knees, and you eat better and get to shower as often as you like. Nicole Blouin, author of Road Biking New Mexico, will take you around the U.S. by bike through photos, showing the best places to tour and giving tips on how to go about it.

Travel presentations most Saturdays at 5pm. Google ‘Travel Bug Events’ for full schedule.

Portland charms with free tastes, books and parks By Nigel Duara

The Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. — Two decades ago, the city of Portland’s Yellow Bike Project put hundreds of canary-colored two-wheelers on the streets for public use. It was an earnest effort, utterly without bashfulness or diffidence. Then, of course, human nature took over and the bikes were variously vandalized, stolen whole or chopped up and sold for parts. Today — earnest, still — the city is making plans to relaunch a version of the bike-share program. In the meantime, you’ll have to shell out as much as $25 per day to wheel around Stumptown (one of Portland’s nicknames, evoking a bygone era of rapid land development and tree-cutting), but don’t fear. There’s much to do on the cheap in a city where living thrifty is living well. Powell’s City of Books: Step back into the foggy mists of yesteryear — OK, maybe just a decade or two — when bookstores were still a viable enterprise. If Portland, as television’s “Portlandia” suggests, does keep alive the dream of the ’90s, then Powell’s is its muse. People-watch, browse away or curl up in one of the comfy chairs: The staff is too busy, the store too massive to worry about lingering readers. Color-coded by room, the block-long bookstore is a mainstay on tourism guides, and with good reason. It’s a haven for used, out-of-print, rare or autographed books. Forest Park: Five thousand acres of rolling hills, fire lanes and the simple stillness of the Oregon wild are within city limits, less than a 10-minute drive from downtown Portland. Sure, you’ll see committed joggers pounding up

7 p.m. on CBS The Amazing Race It’s down to the finish line for the last racers who traveled the world in this edition of the long-running reality series. The two-person teams of globe-hopping hopefuls have covered a lot of ground and watched most of their rivals get sent packing. At the end of tonight’s season finale, the last team standing gets the prize and the bragging rights. Phil Keoghan hosts. 7 p.m. on LIFE Army Wives Claudia Joy’s dedication ceremony brings the tribe together in this new episode, which also finds Denise (Catherine Bell) dealing with an emergency at the hospital and Michael and Kat (Brian McNamara, Brooke Shields) bonding at an event. Patrick (Brant Daugherty) breaks up with Gloria (Alyssa Diaz). Joan (Wendy Davis) gets an ultimatum from Roland (Sterling K. Brown) in “Blood and Treasure.” 8 p.m. on ABC Revenge Now that she and Daniel (Josh Bowman) are engaged again, Emily (Emily VanCamp, pictured) plans her next move, and Aiden (Barry Sloan) struggles to deal with this new development.

hills, rain or shine, but the park is best enjoyed by a slow amble up the Wildwood trail, with creeks bubbling and chipmunks chittering under a shady conifer canopy. There are pioneer ghost stories, a species of cutthroat trout only found here and occasionally stunning views from what is actually part of the Tualatin Mountains. Only a short drive away is Washington Park, home to the International Rose Test Garden, with more than 10,000 rose plants. Farmers markets: For the daring, the curious and the shameless, Portland’s farmers markets mean one thing: Free tastes. Perhaps it’s the Rogue River Blue Cheese at the Thursday market in Northwest. Or perhaps the carnivores in your group will make for the beef and chicken of Viridian Farms, darlings of the local restaurant scene. Samples of almost everything are made bite-sized and jammed on a toothpick, and markets can be found nearly every day of the week, anchored by the massive Saturday Market downtown. Old West: With all the flannel, unicycles and pour-over coffee, it’s easy to forget that Portland was once an Old West town, a fact reflected in its architecture if you’re willing to look hard enough. The best example is the Pioneer Courthouse downtown, the oldest federal building in the Pacific Northwest. The dark wood of its halls, constructed in 1869, make it a quiet refuge from the busy, adjacent courthouse square. Six blocks east bring you to The Lotus, opened as a “soda bar” during Prohibition (yeah, right) built underneath the Lotus Hotel, a reputed brothel. The highlight is the antique 30-foot cherry wood bar, made in the late 1800s.

toria’s (Madeleine Stowe) revelation on “Nightline.” Gabriel Mann also stars in the new episode “Engagement.” 9 p.m. on CBS The Mentalist As Jane (Simon Baker) narrows the list of Red John suspects down to seven, the killer strikes again, and this time the victim is someone with a connection to Jane’s past. Laura San Giacomo (Just Shoot Me) guest stars in the season finale, “Red John’s Rules.” Robin Tunney and Owain Yeoman also star. 9 p.m. on ABC Red Widow Now convinced that Schiller (Goran Visnjic) is the one responsible for her husband’s murder, Marta (Radha Mitchell) asks Andrei and Luther (Rade Serbedzija, Luke Goss) to help her come up with a way to kill him during the gun exchange. She also approaches Alexandra (Branka Katic) about taking over Schiller’s drug operation. Irwin (Wil Traval) tells Kat (Jaime Ray Newman) he wants to make amends in the season finale, “The Hit.”
