Judge: Mental health audit to stay secret Ruling protects confidential law enforcement material

to live, finding employment and drug and alcohol treatment.

Until he went to prison in June 2009, Aragon lived in the large, ornate South Valley “castle.” Bernalillo County Assessor’s Office records show that as of November, Aragon still was listed as the owner of the property on Camino Cinco SW. A 1998 profile in the Los Angeles Times described the house, then under construction, as a “Moorish heap of turrets and towers” and “a monstrosity of volcanic rock, adobe and timber that stands as the crowning oddity in one of this city’s poorest neighborhoods.”

Aragon, who served nearly 30 years in the Legislature, continues to collect state retirement benefits of $27,311 a year as a result of his time as a legislator, with his pen-

A judge has ruled that government agencies don’t have to disclose an audit of more than a dozen mental health providers under investigation for possible overbillings and fraud, because the audit contains law-enforcement materials that are confidential.

State District Judge Sarah Singleton in Santa Fe agreed with Attorney General Gary King’s office in her decision on a lawsuit filed by the New Mexico Foundation for Open Government.

The lawsuit seeks to force disclosure of the audit, which the state used to freeze Medicaid payments to the behavioral health providers.

Only a small part of the 300-plus-page audit has been publicly disclosed by the Human Services Department and the attorney general, who is investigating the allegations against providers of mental health and substance abuse services.

The judge said portions of the audit that have been withheld are law-enforcement materials protected from disclosure under the Inspection of Public Records Act. The judge issued her decision Thursday, when the court was closed because of a winter storm.

The ruling became public Friday.

A judge in Las Cruces made a similar ruling last month in a separate lawsuit brought by the Las Cruces Sun-News and New Mexico In Depth.

anny Aragon is home for the holidays.

Federal inmates normally go to halfway houses after years behind bars. However, the former New Mexico Senate political strongman, who this week left a Florence, Colo., prison after serving time for a high-profile corruption case, is now in a home confinement program, a federal Bureau of Prisons spokesman said Friday.

“He’ll be supervised by the El Paso Community Corrections office,” Chris Burke said.

Aragon will be generally restricted to his home in Albuquerque’s South Valley — a house some refer to as “the castle” — until his official release date next May, Burke said. “He’s still subject

Aragon, 66, will only be allowed to leave his home for approved activities, such as medical appointments, religious services and family events, “if they support building family relations,” Burke said. It’s possible that Aragon will be subject to GPS monitoring, he said.

Aragon, once considered to be the most powerful legislator in the state, served four and a half years in the federal minimum-security facility for his role in a scheme to defraud the state of $4.4 million

He pleaded guilty in federal court in 2008 to three felony counts of conspiracy and mail fraud and was sentenced to five and half years. The crimes took place while Aragon was majority leader in the Senate.

Burke said Aragon qualified for home confinement because his release plan showed he didn’t need the services offered to inmates in halfway houses to prepare them for re-entry into society. Some of those halfway-house services include finding a place

Valles Caldera hiking plan on hold — for now Potential impact on sacred sites a concern

By Staci Matlock

The New Mexican

The governing board of the Valles Caldera National Preserve has tabled its idea to let hikers trek wherever they want on the 89,000 acres of public land in the Jemez Mountains until pueblo officials can be consulted.

The Valles Caldera Trust was considering the idea as part of a plan to increase public access to the preserve.

Kent Salazar, chairman of the trust board, announced the decision to hold off on unfettered hiking at board meeting in Albuquerque on Thursday. “It is the most attainable of our goals — that we can open up access without excessive fees,” Salazar said by phone Friday.

The idea of allowing hikers with a $15 permit to walk where they want on the preserve was one of several ideas the board asked staff to study earlier this year. People currently can hike on designated trails on the preserve’s east side and can go on guided hikes for a fee.

But Salazar said staff came back with a report that cited

multiple concerns about unlimited hiking access, including potential impacts on spiritual sites sacred to several pueblos and tribes. Pueblo officials had contacted the preserve and made it clear they had not been consulted on the plan, as required by federal law.

cials to see if they can work out a deal.

He said they’ll also be consulting with tribes on other issues, such as a need for the New Mexico Gas Co. to replace gas lines that run through the preserve.

The staff also had concerns about parking space and access points at the preserve.

The Valles Caldera Trust Board is struggling, as all prior boards have, to meet the requirements Congress established for the preserve when the property was purchased in 2000 from ranch owners. Congress required the trust to maintain the preserve as a working ranch, protect the natural resources, expand public access and make the preserve self-sustaining by 2015.

The last requirement has been a sticking point since the preserve was started as an experi-

NATION&WORLD Sailor’s story in flea market find

By Meg Jones

MILWAUKEE rank Kruck was 7 when he saw his mother crying and fingering her rosary beads as she listened to the terrible news on the radio.

The announcement on a Sunday morning in December 72 years ago: Japanese planes had attacked Pearl Harbor, ships were burning, sailors and soldiers were wounded and dying.

Frank’s mother was praying for his brother Gene, a sailor aboard the minesweeper USS Widgeon.

It would be more than a week before the Western Union telegram was delivered to the Kruck family home in Waukesha: Gene was OK. Gene survived World War II and the Korean War, spending 22 years in the Navy. Divorced with no children, he died of complications from diabetes in 2002 in California, where he lived for decades. He was buried with full military honors.

No one is sure just how Gene Kruck’s mementos ended up at a flea market in San Bernardino, Calif., more than a decade after his death. But when Ron Hallock realized it was a genuine dark blue Navy jersey with boatswain’s mate arm patch, he called the vendor over and asked his price. Hallock paid $50 for a couple of uniform shirts. As he walked away, the vendor told him a large box came with the uniforms.

Hallock didn’t want the box but took it any way and stored it in his garage where it sat for a couple of weeks before he opened it.

WASHINGTON — Happy or sad? Content or bored? And how many times did you smile yesterday? A panel of experts thinks Uncle Sam should be more in touch with our feelings.

By gauging happiness, there’d be more to consider than cold hard cash when deciding matters that affect daily lives, according to a report this week from the National Academy of Sciences, which advises the government.

The panel of experts assembled by the academy recommended that federal statistics and surveys, which normally deal with income, spending, health and housing, include a few extra questions on happiness.

“You want to know how people are doing?” said panel chairman Arthur Stone, a professor of psychology at New York’s Stony Brook

University. “One of things you may want to do is ask them.”

Asking how people feel can be as important as how much they are spending, Stone said.

The report said the answers can help governments shape policy on basic benefits, such as retirement age and pensions, care for the chronic and terminally ill, unemployment and working conditions. It cited a study by one of the Nobel Prize-winning panelists that showed people’s feelings about commuting problems helped officials decided whether or not to create commuter toll lanes on highways.

In terms of collecting happiness data, the United States government “is a bit of a laggard” behind other industrial nations, said John Helliwell, an economist who co-directs an institute that studies well-being at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver.

In one of the few surveys where the government does ask, we’re a pretty happy nation. Last year, about 87 percent of Americans considered themselves very happy or pretty happy.

But we’re far behind No. 1 Denmark, a host of northern European countries, Canada, Israel and Mexico. The United States ranked 17th in a world happiness ranking report directed by Helliwell, which was based on international surveys and came out in September.

When governments and academics study happiness they find that money isn’t everything. Many of the richest countries, including the United States, weren’t in the Top 10 in self-reported happiness in the report.

Happiness studies, Helliwell said, “keep reminding you that there is much more to life than income and housing.”

WASHINGTON — The State Department says it is welcoming North Korea’s decision to release an elderly American tourist.

North Korea’s state news agency said 85-year-old Merrill Newman was allowed to leave the country after being held for more than month. North Korea says Newman, a Korean War veteran, apologized for alleged crimes during the war.

State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf called it a positive decision but urged North Korea to also release another American, Kenneth Bae, who’s been held there for over a year. Bae is a Korean American missionary and tour operator. He’s being held for alleged subversion.

BANGUI, Central African Republic — Thousands of Christian civilians sought refuge at an airport guarded by French soldiers Friday, fleeing from the mostly Muslim ex-rebels with machetes and guns who rule the country a day after the worst violence to hit the chaotic capital in nine months.

When several French helicopters landed at the airport, people sang with joy as they banged on plastic buckets and waved rags into the air in celebration.

Outside the barbed wire fences of the airport, bodies lay decomposing along the roads in a capital too dangerous for many to collect the corpses. Thursday’s clashes left at least 280 dead, according to national radio, and have raised fears that waves of retaliatory attacks could soon follow.

“They are slaughtering us like chickens,” said Appolinaire Donoboy, a Christian whose family remained in hiding.

France had pledged to increase its presence in its former colony well before militias attacked the capital at dawn Thursday.

The arrival of additional French troops came as the capital teetered on the brink of total anarchy.

That’s when he discovered Eugene James Kruck’s life.

From birth information to his career in the military — records, certificates, medals and battle ribbons, a family picture album, a photo Gene Kruck snapped of President Harry Truman. A life.

“His battle ribbons — good Lord, he fought and earned those things. At the bottom of the box was the tri-folded flag from his funeral and the empty cartridges from the 21-gun salute,” Hallock said. “I just choked right up. It was too real for me to keep.”

Finding Gene’s family was difficult. He finally found a phone number that led him to Frank Kruck in Wauwatosa.

Last summer, Hallock, a senior vice president for nutrition supplement company GNC, traveled to Wisconsin to meet Frank and his wife Barbara and give them Gene’s possessions.

Frank, the youngest of seven kids, was surprised to learn his brother earned five bronze service stars denoting the number of campaigns in which Gene had participated.

And he was deeply grateful for Hallock’s efforts.

“Thank God he did this. I never would have known he got all these medals or gotten his flag,” said Frank, who was 12 years younger than his brother.

And Gene Kruck’s blue Navy uniforms?

The Kruck family wanted Hallock to keep them now that they and the history buff from California have become friends. It was a way to thank him for bringing so much of Gene’s life and legacy back home.

Dylan’s legendary performance at the festival in Rhode Island 48 years ago marked his rupture with the folk movement’s old guard.

A legAcy of hArmony Tributes to Mandela cut across social, ideological, racial, religious lines

By Sudarsan Raghavan and Michael Birnbaum

The Washington Post

JOHANNESBURG — They came by the hundreds, late into Friday night.

They parked their cars blocks away and walked through the darkness, some carrying candles, some flowers.

They were men, women and children, black, white and brown, Christians, Muslims and Jews, gays and lesbians, and they all walked until they converged in front of the house of the man mourned by the whole world.

They came to pay tribute and to thank him.

“My life would not be what it is if it wasn’t for having a leader such as Nelson Mandela,” said Angela Mhlanga,

head of a financial division at a bank, who came to the house in the upscale Johannesburg suburb of Houghton with her two children. “He chose peace over war. He created a legacy where our children, black, white or yellow, can live in harmony. I told my children that we wouldn’t have a country such as this one if it weren’t for him.”

The death of Mandela, 95, spurred the rarest of outpourings Friday — nearly universal and unanimous — as South African President Jacob Zuma announced a national week of mourning before a state funeral is held Dec. 15. It was the start of a fitting farewell to the anti-apartheid icon, who rose from prisoner to president.

Flags across several continents fell to half-staff early Friday, and South Africans poured into the streets at daybreak to pay tribute to a liberator whose life spanned nearly a century and whose dignity and peacemaking served as a model across the world.

Mandela’s face appeared on newspaper

front pages from Berlin to Beirut, often with just a few somber words and the years of his life: 1918 to 2013.

In Soweto, the township near Johannesburg that was the scene of some of the worst apartheid-era strife, black and white South Africans joined hands in mourning. Crowds also congregated in a popular mall in Sandton, where a huge statue of Mandela stands in a square named after him. Mourners placed bouquets notes near the statue. South Africans also gathered in Pretoria, the seat of government, to remember him.

But it was outside Mandela’s house in Houghton, where he died with his family around him, that perhaps the most boisterous appreciation unfolded.

Crowds waved South African flags and placards emblazoned with his portrait.

They sang the national anthem and liberation songs. In one corner of the intersection, an expanse of candles, flowers and photographs mushroomed. It was part mourning, part celebration, a send-off unlike any this

nation — perhaps any — has seen.

Zuma said Friday that a memorial service will be held Tuesday at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg. Mandela’s body will lie in state in Pretoria from Wednesday through next Friday, and two days later he will be buried in Qunu, his rural birthplace.

“We collectively claim him as the father of our nation,” retired Anglican bishop Desmond Tutu, a close friend of Mandela’s and a fellow fighter against apartheid, told reporters in Cape Town. “What’s going to happen

Los Angeles Times

WASHINGTON — A surprisingly robust gain in new jobs last month helped drop the unemployment rate to a five-year low, fueling optimism about the nation’s economic recovery and raising the prospect that the government may finally start to ease a key stimulus effort this month.

In its report Friday, the Labor Department said that the nation’s employers added 203,000 non-farm jobs in November and that a large part of them were higher-paying positions. The unemployment rate fell to 7 percent, the lowest since November 2008.

“It’s not just the quantity of the jobs but the quality,” said Diane Swonk, chief economist at Mesirow Financial. “These are higher-wage jobs, and a shift from a reliance on leisure and hospitality and retail gains we had seen in recent months.”

Big increases in manufacturing and construction gave experts hope that the labor market was starting to produce enough solid jobs to fuel stronger economic growth and lead the Federal Reserve to pull back on its monthly purchases of $85 billion in bonds.

The economy has averaged more than 200,000 net new

jobs a month for the past four months. That’s the sustained level that central bank officials have said they wanted to see before starting to reduce the monthly bond purchases, part of their effort to spur the recovery from the Great Recession.

Despite fears that the Fed’s easy-money policies might start ending, investors cheered the upbeat labor market news, the biggest in a series of positive economic reports recently. The Dow Jones industrial average gained 198.69 points, or 1.3 percent, to close at 16,020.20.

Wall Street is “waking up to the fact that good news really is good news,” said Alan Whitman, managing director at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management in Pasadena, Calif. “It means the economy is able to carry itself on its own, and that’s really what we want.”

Construction companies added 17,000 jobs in November, up 42 percent from the previous month, as the housing market rebound created more demand.

And the nation’s factories added 27,000 workers, the most in 20 months and 69 percent more than in October.

Layoffs, meanwhile, have been dropping. Roy Paulson has seen business at his Paulson Manufacturing Corp. in Temecula, Calif., pick up this year domestically and abroad.

“We were planning for layoffs in October, November, December because that’s what we traditionally do, but we didn’t have layoffs,” he said.

The company, which makes safety products such as face shields for industrial use, first responders and the military, normally would be down to 110 workers at this time of year. But there are 150 workers keeping the factory operating around the clock at times to fill rush orders.

The improving economy has led Paulson to boost production despite concern about tax and spending policy in Washington.

“I’m doing what I need to do.

I’m not holding back on hiring,” Paulson said.

Other employers remain worried, though, about whether there will be another partial government shutdown when a short-term federal spending bill expires on Jan. 15.

“We’ve seen a ton of hesitancy by companies to invest in

to us now that our father has died?”

Some analysts have worried for years about a splintering of South Africa in the wake of Mandela’s death, since the country is still riven with problems, but Mandela always scoffed at the notion that his country would face special challenges after his death.

As mourners left Mandela’s house Friday night, some expressed a sense of foreboding about a future without Mandela. “I’m worried,” said Sharon Rosenberg, 52, a receptionist. “Will South Africa be the same?”

City offers free downtown parking The city of Santa Fe is waiving downtown parking fees for a few hours on the three weekends before Christmas.

The promotion, part of an effort by the city and downtown merchants to promote local shopping, begins this weekend, Dec. 7 and 8. It also runs Dec. 15 and 16; and Dec. 22 and 23 and covers the city lots on Water and Sandoval streets, the Railyard and as the Santa Fe Community Convention Center. The regular daily rate will go into effect after the two-hour time period.

For those same weekends, the Santa Fe Downtown Merchants Association is sponsoring free two-hour parking at 1,200 hooded meters around downtown. Some 75 merchants have donated $100 each to the city to offset the parking revenue and encourage patrons to shop local.

Santa Fe named best city for shopping USA Today has named Santa Fe as the best U.S. City for Shopping — even ahead of New York.

“History and commerce collide in Santa Fe, a mix of western wear, western decor, fine art and chic fashion jostling for retail space,” the newspaper writes. “The city has also embraced the ‘shopping local’ mantra and a wealth of local artists and artisans are well-represented. Resorts and hotels all have amazing boutiques and gift shops, while the city’s famed historic downtown area and Canyon Road are must-dos for any avid shopper. Savvy shoppers head to the Tesuque Flea Market northwest of the city for art, decor, rugs, jewelry and vintage western wear.”

After Santa Fe is New York City, Chicago, Nashville, Tenn., Las Vegas, Nev., Atlanta, Dallas, Orlando, Seattle and Washington, D.C.

Supreme Court to put them back on.

Jon Barrie, chairman of the state Constitution Party, last week filed an emergency petition with the high court to reverse Secretary of State Dianna Duran’s ruling. The court has asked Duran to respond by Dec. 16.

The Secretary of State’s Office in July ruled that both the Constitution Party and the Green Party didn’t receive enough support in the last election to remain on the ballot. The state Elections Code says a party shall “cease to be qualified” if its candidate for president or governor fail to receive at least one-half of 1 percent of the total votes cast for president or governor or if the party doesn’t have any candidates on the ballot in two consecutive general elections.

In 2012, the Constitution Party’s presidential candidate, Virginia Congressman Virgil Goode, received 982 votes statewide, which is 0.13 percent of the total vote.

The Constitution Party says Duran didn’t follow an Elections Code requirement to send a notice of disqualification no later than March 15.

LANL announces new associate directors Los Alamos National Laboratory recently announced two new associate directors: Mary Hockaday is the associate director of the Experimental Physical Sciences Directorate, and Cheryl Cabbil joined the lab Dec. 2 as associate director for Nuclear and High Hazard Operations.

“Mary is a 30-year veteran of the Lab and currently serves in a joint role as the deputy associate director for the Weapons Physics directorate as well as leading LANL’s MaRIE signature facility effort,” said Director Charlie McMillan. “She is skilled and passionate in communicating with the scientific and customer communities on issues concerning Laboratory capabilities and national security.”

“Cheryl brings a distinguished track record for developing and implementing nuclear facility management programs, for improving nuclear and high hazard conduct of operations, nuclear safety bases, integrated safety manage-

ment, R&D laboratory operations and nuclear quality assurance,” McMillan said. “She has demonstrated leadership skill in working with regulators, including the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board, stakeholders and staff to identify common ground and gain consensus.”

BERNALILLO — Authorities say a Sandoval County sheriff’s sergeant struck by a vehicle while directing traffic on Interstate 25 near the San Felipe Pueblo has died.

Sandoval County Sheriff Doug Wood released a statement Friday evening, mourning the death of Sgt. Robert Baron. He says Baron was not only a member of the law-enforcement community, but he was his friend.

Wood and other members of the department had been holding vigil with Baron’s wife and 10-year-old son after doctors induced a medical coma.

Baron was initially listed in critical

Montoya is the son of a minister and was profiled by The Taos News in 2010 for his work mentoring at-risk boys in a program started by the Taos-based social services organization Nonviolence Works.

DeTavis wrote in a police report about the incident that Montoya “later bought the entire family McDonald’s during the booking process.”

CARLSBAD — A delegation of Eddy County government officials is headed to Washington, D.C., to build support for a proposal that would expand the mission of the federal government’s nuclear waste repository in Southern New Mexico.

Carlsbad Mayor Dale Janway, Eddy County Commission Chairman Jack Volpato and Eddy-Lea Alliance Vice Chairman John Heaton will leave for Washington on Sunday.

The Carlsbad Current-Argus reports the delegation plans to meet with lawmakers and representatives with the U.S. Department of Energy.

Earlier this year, U.S. Rep. Steve Pearce introduced an amendment that would allow for non-defense-related materials to be buried at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant near Carlsbad.

LOS ALAMOS — Los Alamos Police Commander Preston Ballew is in trouble with the law.

The Los Alamos Monitor reports that Ballew is facing two counts of illegal hunting and one count of illegal vehicle travel following a hunting trip in Otero County.

An officer with the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish says Ballew is being charged as an accessory to his son’s alleged unlawful taking of a bull elk last month.

Ballew is scheduled to be arraigned in Alamogordo Magistrate Court next week.

He directed inquiries about the case to his attorney Gary Mitchell, who did not immediately return a call seeking comment.

Police Chief Dino Sgambellone says Ballew remains on the job.

The department suspended payments to providers in June, partly because the findings of the audit it commissioned from a private consulting group.

Legislators have sharply criticized the Martinez administration for failing to give providers an opportunity to review and respond to the fraud allegations before freezing their Medicaid payments. The department has contracted with Arizona companies to take over for some of the suspended providers.

ment in public land management. The trust oversees the preserve, which is managed by an executive director and small staff. It has required millions of federal dollars to keep the preserve operating while the trust tried to figure out how to meet all the mandates. A report is due to Congress next year that will make the case for whether or not the trust should continue managing the preserve or if it should be managed by another agency, such as the National Park Service.

“It is clear that we’re not self-sustaining,” Salazar said by phone Friday, noting the preserve was still making less than $1 million in revenues a year from tours, hunters, anglers, grazing and other special programs.

The trust has been vilified over the years for failing to open up public access at an affordable fee. Salazar said the current board and staff have been committed to beefing up revenues and increasing access, but the two goals are often in conflict.

Judge approves auction of sacred Hopi masks PARIS — A judge has ruled that the controversial sale of 32 Native American Hopi masks can go ahead next week. The Hopi tribe had taken a Paris auction house to court Tuesday to try to block the sale, arguing that they are “bitterly opposed” to the the sale of sacred masks that represent their ancestor’s spirits.

Corinne Matouk, a lawyer who represented the Drouot auction house, said the law was on their side. “In French law, there is nothing stopping the sale of Hopi artifacts.”

“My view was always philosophical: We are a public agency, we manage public lands, and our employees are paid by public taxes, and these investigations ought to be wide open,” Furnish said.

Surviving family members expressed outrage over the federal government’s failure to provide the state with access to all pertinent information in their investigation. “How is it that anyone could tell OSHA you can’t speak to them and you can’t ask them those things?” said Juliann Ashcraft, whose husband, Andrew, died in the blaze.

The mother of one of the firefighters has indicated she plans to file a $36 million negligence lawsuit against several agencies involved in managing the fire.

Experts say it’s generally difficult to overcome a ban on suing employers for wrongful death under the state’s workers compensation system. But they noted that the ADOSH report clearly finding key failures in managing the fire might make it easier to pursue such claims in court.

he would explore options, including seeking help from U.N. cultural organization UNESCO. The “Katsinam” masks are being put on sale by a private collector Monday and Wednesday, alongside an altar from the Zuni tribe that used to belong to the late Hollywood star Vincent Price, and other Native American frescoes and dolls.

The tribe has said it believes the masks, which date back to the late 19th century and early 20th century, were taken from a northern Arizona reservation in the early 20th century.

In April, a Paris court ruled that such sales are legal, and Drouot sold off about 70 Hopi masks for some $1.2 million, despite vocal protests and criticism from actor Robert Redford and the U.S. government.

N

otah Begay III recognizes he’s been given opportunities: He went to a good high school in Albuquerque, and he received a college education at Stanford University — where he was a three-time All-American golfer and Tiger Woods’ teammate. In 1995, he became a professional golfer.

Begay, who was born in Albuquerque, is the only full-blooded American Indian to play in the PGA Tour, the most recognized golf tournament in North America, and he has won it four times in his career between 1999 and 2000.

In 1999, he testified before the U.S. Senate Committee on Indian Affairs about his own success and how it can be replicated among other Native people. That same year, an ESPN profile quoted Begay saying: “When I look back 50 years and I’m taking my last breaths, I won’t be thinking about golf scores and trophies. I’ll be looking at the generation behind me and whether I was an inspiration to them to improve their lives.

That’s what I want my legacy to be.”

Begay has been trying to improve the lives of others through the NB3 Foundation, based at Santa Ana Pueblo, which addresses Type 2 diabetes and childhood obesity. The disease has not only plagued Begay’s family, but also is an epidemic in tribes across the nation, he said.

One out of two Native American children born since 2000 will develop Type 2 diabetes in their lifetime, according to the foundation’s website.

Begay started the foundation in 2005.

Its goal is to not only bring awareness to the issue but also to prevent the disease by educating American Indian youth on eating healthy and exercising through the foundation’s soccer and golf clinics.

Because of Begay’s pursuit, he has been chosen by The New Mexican as one of the 10 Who Made a Difference for 2013.

“What we are really trying to do is act like a catalyst for change,” said Begay, who recently took a job as an analyst for the Gold Channel.

According to the foundation’s website, more than 15,000 Native Americans across 13 states have participated in NB3 Foundation programs, including soccer and golf clinics, and workshops on healthy eating.

In New Mexico, the foundation helped San Felipe Pueblo build a soccer field.

“This work couldn’t have happened 15 years ago, because the people on our board, the people working for us … we weren’t in the right place in our lives,” Begay said. “Those certain individuals who have gone into the world and have done

Judge orders former vet to stay away from dogs Former veterinarian Debra Clopton’s Edgewood home was so crowded with dozens of dogs earlier this year that she was charged with 48 counts of animal cruelty.

A judge’s restraining order, issued Friday, aims to ensure that Clopton won’t have another chance to hoard dogs or other pets at her home until her trial.

District Judge Mary Marlowe said Clopton, 49, must stay at least 25 yards from dogs and prohibited Debra her from having any animal in her possession that could be considered Clopton a pet while she awaits trial on the 52-count indictment.

“Don’t go up petting the dog,” Marlowe told Clopton, who pleaded not guilty to 48 counts of animal cruelty — one charge for each of the 48 dogs recovered from her home — as well as three felony charges of possession of dangerous drugs and a single charge of practicing veterinary medicine without a license.

The drug charges are related to veterinary medications found at the home.

Clopton had worked for more than 20 years as a veterinarian in the Albuquerque area before losing her license. She reportedly was treating animals without renewing her veterinary license, leading the New Mexico Board of Veterinary Medicine to permanently revoke the license.

She was arrested in April after her Edgewood neighbors complained to Santa Fe County animal control officers about constant barking at her house.

well in their professions now feel that it’s appropriate to give back.”

He said most of the foundation’s staff and directors grew up in Native American communities, some from New Mexico pueblos, and have dedicated themselves to causes that have affected them personally.

Casey Lozar, the chief marketing and development officer for the foundation, said Begay has been active with the foundation.

“He’s 100 percent invested in the foundation,” said Lozar, who is part of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes in Montana. “The mission is very personal, and he’s a pioneer and knows this is so important for all Indians.”

Lozar pointed out that Begay was at a

recent University of New Mexico basketball game where the Lobos wore turquoise-colored jerseys that were later auctioned off in a benefit for the foundation. Begay attended the game to serve as a spokesman for the foundation, Lozar said.

Begay said one of the lessons he learned while growing up as a Native American is that his decisions will impact his community’s future.

“Take a look and have a clear understanding [that] what we do now will have a ripple effect in future generations,” Begay said.

“And I want to make that effect as positive as possible, so that my children and their children and their grandchildren will be able to look back and say, ‘wow.’ ”

ALBUQUERQUE — Crews in New Mexico worked to clear snowy, icy roads, while some schools and government agencies shuttered their doors Friday, a day after a storm system left behind 6 inches of snow.

Workers plowed Interstate 40 between Clines Corner and Santa Rosa in the east, and Interstate 25 between Rowe and Raton in the north. Eastern New Mexico and the Rio Grande Valley saw freezing fog Friday morning, and the fog was expected to return later in the evening through Saturday morning.

Meanwhile, police from Santa Fe and Roswell continued to monitor traffic and icy roads after seeing dozens of minor accidents.

The bitter cold temperatures and treacherous roads forced some Santa Fe and Carlsbad schools to open late, while schools in Albuquerque’s eastern mountains, an area hit hard by the system, remained closed.

Dimas gets top spot on ballot

By Daniel J. Chacón

The New Mexican

A 4-year-old had a hand in Santa Fe’s March municipal election.

Literally.

Annabelle Booker, the granddaughter of a temporary employee in the City Clerk’s Office, reached her tiny hand into a Native American pot Friday evening and drew the names of the four mayoral and 11 City Council candidates to determine the order in which their names will appear on the March ballot.

Several candidates and their families braved the cold weather and huddled into council chambers to witness the drawing.

Even City Councilor Ron Trujillo, who is running unopposed in District 4, attended the ballot drawing.

“We’re just being nosy,” Trujillo’s wife, Amber, said.

City Councilor Bill Dimas, who got the top line on the ballot in the mayor’s race, said the ballot position “doesn’t make a difference.”

“People are going to find you on the ballot no matter what,” he said.

When asked why so many people showed up to watch the drawing, he said: “It’s always been like that.”

After the drawing, candidates who qualified for public financing walked up to the second floor of City Hall to pick up their checks from City Clerk Yolanda Vigil.

Melissa Byers, right, legislative liaison with the City Attorney’s Office, records a list of names for the March 4 municipal ballot as Annabelle Booker, 4, pulls the name of the last mayoral race candidate on Thursday at the City Council chambers during an event to choose ballot positions.

LUIS SÁNCHEZ SATURNO/THE NEW MEXICAN

Mayoral candidates were each eligible for $60,000 in public financing. Council candidates received $15,000 each.

“If there’s anyone that needs to go up to my office to receive checks — candidates only, I know everybody wants a check — go ahead and meet me up there in about five minutes,” Vigil said.

Of all the candidates who qualified for public financing, only Javier Gonzales, who is running for mayor, did not pick up his check, Vigil said.

Gonzales said he was in meetings most of the day and that he planned to get the check Monday.

Here is the order in which candidates’ names will appear on the ballot:

Mayor Bill Dimas Patti J. Bushee Javier M. Gonzales Rebecca Wurzburger District 1 Signe I. Lindell Michael J. Segura District 2 Joe H. Arellano Joseph M. Maestas Mary Louise Bonney Rad Acton Jeff E.

The adaptive testing program asks individuals a series of questions, left, and identifies those at risk, right.

With series of online questions, program promises to help New Mexico providers assess suicide risk

New tool to diagnose

depReSSioN

N

ew Mexico has one of the highest suicide rates in the nation, but a new software program might offer the state’s health providers a faster way to identify and help people at risk of killing themselves.

It takes less than two minutes and less than a dozen questions patients can answer themselves online or working with a provider to assess a person’s risk of attempting suicide. If the risk is high, the program sends an alert automatically to a health provider, clinician or emergency response center so they can respond immediately.

The patient does not see the results.

The program, called Computer Adaptive Testing for Mental Health, also can help providers, with a few quick questions, screen patients for signs and severity of depression, anxiety, mania and substance abuse — all conditions associated with suicidal thoughts. The online program is free to providers, schools, universities and the patients. The test is paid for by Medicare, Medicaid and through private insurance offered through the new federal health insurance exchange.

The need to identify and treat people with substance abuse and mental health conditions is critical because New Mexico has the highest national rate of deaths due to alcohol and second highest rate of drug overdose deaths.

Steve Trubow of Olympic Labs; Jan Fawcett, a psychiatrist from The University of New Mexico; and Robert Gibbons, director of the Center for Health Statistics at the University of Chicago, gave a live demonstration of how the program works at the Eldorado Hotel in Santa Fe on Nov. 25. Trubow is traveling the state to explain the program and convince providers to try it out. Gibbons has a financial interest in Adaptive Testing Technologies, which is contracting with the federal government to provide the service.

Trubow said the adaptive testing program is a tool that quickly identifies someone who needs behavioral health counseling, provides information for effective treatment and identifies who is most at risk of attempting suicide.

The men said the program holds particu-

lar promise in rural New Mexico, where many clinics lack behavioral health specialists.

Providers order the computerized adaptive test much the way they would order any other lab test. The CAT program sets up an account for the patient and sends a link to the health provider. The provider either asks the questions while the patient is in the office or emails the link to the patient, who can answer the questions online at his or her convenience if he or she has access to a computer or mobile device. The program asks the questions verbally and in writing. The program is offered in Spanish and English.

Gibbons tested a version of the program for screening people with major depressive disorder. His study, published in the July edition of the Journal of Clinical Psychology, involved 656 individuals with and without depression. On average, it took only four to six questions for the program to correctly identify which individuals had depression with high accuracy. Other questions and factors were added later to test for suicidal tendencies.

Shirlee Davidson, a nurse with the Santa Fe County Health Policy and Planning Commission, said one potential glitch for letting people take the test on their own in New Mexico is that thousands of people in the state are functionally illiterate and might need help answering the questions.

But Davidson said she was excited about the possibilities of the program for helping providers more quickly screen patients for several mental health conditions that can lead to suicide.

Some providers at the demonstration said they were concerned the program would replace face-to-face screening and help for patients.

Trubow, Fawcett and Gibbons said the program is not meant to replace one-onone consultation with counselors, clinical psychologists, primary care providers and other health professionals. But it can help health providers — especially those not trained specifically in behavioral health — to pinpoint people who might need help and might otherwise go undiagnosed. A high-risk patient can be directed to the best source of help. “It allows a clinician to do an immediate intervention if that is what is needed,” Gibbons said.

The need to identify and treat people with substance abuse and mental health conditions is critical because New Mexico has the highest national rate of deaths due to alcohol and second highest rate of drug overdose deaths.

Currently, if a person is depressed or contemplating suicide, they can call a suicide prevention hotline. The person answering the phone asks a series of questions and, based on the answers, has to decide whether to call for emergency help, usually 911.

Gibbons said using the adaptive technology program means health care providers will have to work on a coordinated system with emergency responders so someone who is suicidal can receive immediate attention.

Fawcett said he “loves” the product. He’s spent his career researching and counseling in depression and suicide. He said Western states, including New Mexico, have higher rates of depression and suicide year after year than those on the East coast. “No one knows why,” he said. “I think it is the distance they have to travel to find care.”

The questionnaire has been tested for people ages 18 to 80 and is effective for teens as well, according to Trubow, although “it is not valid for younger children,” he said.

Versions of the Computerized Adaptive Test also can be used to screen for tobacco, alcohol or other drug use with eight questions. Still another one is a behavioral health screening tool that can screen for substance abuse among children under age 21. It is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics’ Committee on Substance Abuse.

“Far too many NM veterans, adolescents, teen mothers, foster youth, Native Americans, juvenile offenders and the elderly go without treatment, in large part because their disorders go undiagnosed,” Trubow said in an email.

Robotic delivery systems face many challenges

I

nternet retail giant Amazon.com made a splash this week announcing plans for same-day delivery of books and other consumer products by means of a fleet of small, unmanned aerial vehicles. In a widely discussed interview with CBS correspondent Charlie Rose, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos showed video clips of a toylike helicopter with eight propellers dropping off a package as gently as a stork delivering a baby.

Here is an excerpt from the discussion: Charlie Rose: What’s the hardest challenge in making this happen?

Roger Jeff Bezos: The hard part here is Snodgrass putting in all the redundancy, all the Science Matters reliability, all the systems you need to say, “Look, this thing can’t land on somebody’s head while they’re walking around their neighborhood.”

Bezos also said the system could not go into service before 2015 because that’s the earliest the Federal Aviation Administration expects approval on a set of rules that would open the U.S. market to commercialized drones, and realistically he thought it would take two or three years longer than that. Currently, only three unmanned aerial operators have been approved for commercial use in the U.S., according to sUAS (Small Unmanned Aerial Systems) News’ website, which places Japan far ahead with more than 14,000.

A “four- to five-year” timetable sounds feasible for integrating drones into the overall U.S. aeronautic system, but it won’t be a piece of cake, according to David Mascarenas, a robotic engineer and specialist in the emerging field of cyberphysical systems and security at Los Alamos National Laboratory. “There are challenges from my point of view.” Besides the legal framework, he said, there are security, safety and technical hurdles, particularly concerning size, weight and power. “But I’m optimistic,” he said.

Mascarenas heads a laboratory-funded research project staffed by early career Ph.D.s and postdocs who are developing an aerial delivery system for placing structural monitoring sensors in hard-to-reach places on bridges and buildings. Like Amazon, the LANL project uses a computerized rotocraft that they have custom built from parts. But instead of a basket with a plastic book box, this copter carries an intelligent gas gun that employs laser range finders to aim and control the delivery of a sensor to its targeted spot. The instrument can then send back information about the condition and stability of the structure.

LANL has advantages in some of the areas Bezos considers the “hard part” of developing the systems. For example, the 36 square miles of laboratory property is restricted air space, in which small flying objects pose no danger to general or commercial aviation, and is therefore a space available for experimentation within the lab’s own safe environment.

As a cyberphysical systems and security engineer, Mascarenas is concerned about the overlap between the robot as a mechanical device and the computer as an operating system, and his comprehensive goal is “making robust cyberphysical systems” with an emphasis on “robust.” Much of his time is spent brainstorming what can go wrong, either physically with the robotic device or cybernetically with the software and communication pathways. A corollary would be: How can one discern, for example, whether a malfunction is caused by a glitch in the complex systems or by adversarial intent.

Physically, robotic systems are vulnerable to tampering when left unattended, and they can be stolen or manipulated to become a destructive or unpredictable agent, or even a “Trojan Horse” that can carry harmful material or code back to its home base.

Last year, Mascarenas and his team attended DEFCON, a gathering of some 15,000 assorted hackers in Las Vegas, Nev., where they launched an experiment, inviting the attendees to test a “cyberphysical honeypot,” a new tool that the team devised to help analyze the new dimensions of cyberphysical security.

They configured a small robotic platform as a typical system running ROS, the standard Robotic Operating System, but with a twist. This system had two miniature cameras for recording unauthorized activity and special sensors and controllers that opened the system up to novel exploitative threats by the characteristically competitive attendees, who were invited to participate in the experiment as a contest, called “Dr. Strange Bot.” The result uncovered a variety of hacks and anomalies, including unknown susceptibilities of the operating system itself. Among the conclusions from a preliminary analysis of the experiment was the recognition that the burgeoning field of cyberphysical systems would require a new kind of security, one combining expertise in cyber and physical security, along with robotics.

One overarching conclusion is that there is a great deal that has yet to be thought through.

“How secure are these systems? To date, a focused effort has not been made to ensure emerging cyberphysical systems are secure, but part of what we did was find things that need to be fixed,” Mascarenas said.

“Everything about robots has to be verified.”

Two books were written by survivors which depicted Armijo as the chief villain in the affair.

Despite considerable American prejudice against Armijo, Gen. Kearny in 1846 must have decided that he could be useful if restored to office as a puppet of the new regime. The New Mexicans were showing signs of rebellion and, no doubt, it was hoped that Armijo could keep them under control.

If so, the hope was certainly misguided because, as the news report quoted above makes clear, the people were blaming the ex-governor for their predicament.

The question is academic anyway since Manuel Armijo wisely spurned the offer and kept his horse pointed toward Chihuahua.

Now in semi-retirement, author Marc Simmons wrote a weekly history column for more than 35 years. The New Mexican is publishing reprints from among the more than 1,800 columns he produced during his career.

Dogs: Pets were taken to shelter Continued from Page A-6 Someone also reported that one dog at her home had been killed by another dog. Authorities who investigated the complaint reported that the dogs were living in squalid conditions.

A prosecutor asked the judge to set a bond for Clopton because he was concerned she was a flight risk — she had failed to appear for a scheduled court hearing in September.

The prosecutor also recommended that Clopton participate in an animal cruelty prevention program, obtain psychological counseling and

allow officers to randomly visit her house to ensure she isn’t keeping any pets.

But the release conditions set by the judge only require that Clopton stay away from animals.

Public defender Megan Dorsey said police have entered the defendant’s property without a proper warrant and that she has felt unsafe at her Edgewood home. Clopton remains free on a $10,000 bond that was posted in early November.

Clopton’s dogs were taken to the Santa Fe Animal Shelter & Humane Society, where some were euthanized for medical reasons and most were adopted

to new owners. Some of the dogs were pregnant and had litters of puppies at the shelter.

After her arrest, Clopton tried to regain custody of 10 dogs — the maximum number of dogs allowed in one household in Santa Fe County — by paying fees to the shelter. After she failed to pay the fees, however, she forfeited the dogs.

Her next court appearance is scheduled is a pre-trial conference March 14, according to online records.

Student behind on rent, bills The New Mexican

Lauren Ipsum is a 19-year-old student who is just trying to make ends meet. She recently lost her job and had to take a lower-paying job while she studies at Santa Fe Community College.

But the lower pay, in addition to school costs, has caused Ipsum to fall behind in her rent.

She pays $360 a month for rent but owes $720, as well as $49 in utility fees, because she is two months behind.

Ipsum is asking for a little help to make it through a rough patch. She is just one of many community members seeking help from The New Mexican’s Empty Stocking Fund during the holiday season. uuu

WAITE THOMPSON

NOVEMBER 5, 1940 - NOVEMBER 7, 2013 Shortly after Waite and his partner television producer-director Richard Gottlieb moved to Santa Fe in 1979, Waite started "Santa Fe Walks", a personally guided walk through historic Santa Fe, which he sold in 1991.

During the 1990’s Waite served on the City’s Historic Design Review Board and the Board of The Historic Santa Fe Foundation. He was for many years a member of the Museum of New Mexico Foundation and a supporter of the Santa Fe Opera and the Old Santa Fe Association. Nationally he was a long-time supporter of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the Cato Institute and the New Netherlands Institute. (Re the latter: one of Waite’s ancestors, Capt. John Van Dolson, at the age of 16 in 1626, was the youngest of the original Dutch settlers of New Amsterdam, which became New York in 1664.)

Before moving to Santa Fe Waite was in the real estate business in Beverly Hills, California, and also served as campaign coordinator for several well-known members of the United States Congress. Throughout his life, Waite enjoyed the study of the development of spiritual thought in human consciousness, especially Christian Science.

As a boy Waite attended camp in different parts of the country, and, through the years, he traveled extensively in 100 plus countries including 3 trips around the world. On one 16 month trip in 1967-’68, he had the second longest air ticket ever written by the old Pan American World Airways.

Waite grew up in St. Louis and Los Angeles and attended private and public schools in those cities. He graduated from Principia College in 1962.

The son of the late Jane Waite Thompson of Los Angeles (formerly of St. Louis) and the late Frank C. Thompson, Jr. of Paw Paw, Michigan, Waite is survived by cousins including first cousins Deborah Howard of St. Louis and Nancy Gilbert of Bailey, Colorado, and by his dachshund "Fritzl".

Per Waite’s request, there will be no services held.

"Thou wilt show me the path of life." - Psalms.

NEIL CARTER Neil Carter, 62, local architect, died Friday November 29, 2013 at home of ALS. He was born in Huntington, Indiana, the son of Clyde and Marjorie Carter.

Neil is survived by his wife, Laura Lichtenstein, daughter Anna, mother Marjorie, brother Eric, sister Dee Brown, and nieces Chloe and Hannah Brown. He was predeceased by his father Clyde and sister Kay. Neil graduated from UNM with BFA in architecture and Virginia Tech with a Master of Architecture. His love of sunshine and green chili then brought him back to Santa Fe where he established Neil Carter Associates. Much of his professional work was with Native American Tribes offering a variety of consulting services as construction project manager.

Neil always had a love of trains and eventually became one of the driving forces in establishing the Santa Fe Southern Railroad.

A celebration of Neil’s life will be held at a later date.

The right has often found the left to be somehow unAmerican, with what the right claims to be the left’s “blame America first” attiBill Stewart tude, thus underUnderstanding mining Your World traditional American values. The right proudly waves the flag while the left burns it.

Regardless of the war, the right dons the uniform and proudly serves; the left points the finger at the Pentagon and heads for Canada.

This belief in patriotic virtue made it extremely difficult for conservative Republicans to accept the legitimacy of Bill Clinton’s presidency, as Clinton was that rare bird: a Southern liberal who once opposed the Vietnam War. Many on the right still believe, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that President Barack Obama was born in Africa, and thus not eligible to be president.

Absurd? Of course it is, but it is now an American political fairy tale beloved of the far right.

It is taken as a given by the right that the Affordable Care Act, or “Obamacare,” is a monument to the left’s ethos of Big Government that will destroy the U.S. unless it is killed at birth. Thus the right’s near hysteria over Obamacare; and thus the almost 50 attempts by congressional Republicans to kill it, defund it or cripple it.

Is this in defense of principle, or is it some form of blind monomania?

ber was a terrible failure in technology and should never have happened. But it was not a policy failure; Obamacare was not going to die because the website was inadequate to the task. And as we now can clearly see, the website is recovering.

The massive social changes that have transformed American life since the Great Depression of the 1930s have come in the wake of Big Government action, beginning with Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal. Social Security, the bedrock of economic security for the elderly and a key FDR achievement, was at first bitterly resisted by the very same Republican Party that now ardently defends it.

Medicare is now a crucial feature in our lives, but it was not always so. The Civil Rights Act in the 1960s came after active but controversial legislation.

We ignore the achievements of the New Deal and succeeding active government actions at our peril, but that is what has happened in the past 30 years or so. The country is undergoing a new class divide of dangerous proportions.

By turning our backs on the momentous achievements

of Roosevelt’s New Deal, we turn our backs on the reforms and the methods of reform that made America a far more equal, tolerant and socially safe society than it ever was before. We were the envy of a world still struggling to be free in the aftermath of World War II. The issues that have roiled Washington for months — the government shutdown, the broken health care website, the bitter tone of a stalemated Congress — do not affect ordinary Americans on a daily basis. What Americans suffer from, according to The New York Times, is economic anxiety, the fear of losing their jobs. At the same time, there is a growing disparity in wealth, mostly in incomes, that is, in my view, not only a threat to social stability but profoundly immoral.

Hundreds of millions of dollars in bonuses for a few while fast-food workers (and how many others?) barely bring in a minimum wage?

What’s wrong with this picture?

President Barack Obama delivered a powerful speech this week in which he said he will spend the rest of his presidency on “the defining

challenge of our time,” reducing economic inequality and improving upward mobility.

These are issues that were once taken for granted.

No more.

Obama pointed out that an American child born into the lowest 20 percent income level has a less-than-1-in-20 chance of making it to the top.

But one born in the top 20 percent has a 2-in-3 chance of staying there.

The top 10 percent now takes half the national income, up from a third in 1979. That’s a level of inequality on a level with Jamaica and Argentina.

As The Times points out, such concentrated wealth leads to more frequent recessions, higher household debt and growing cynicism and despondency.

How is this possible in what is still the richest country in the world?

I am reminded of the prayer that says, “Help me to live more simply that others may simply live.” In these difficult times, it’s a thought worth remembering.

MY VIEW: GLEN SMERAGE

Land code needs work before adoption

T

A-11

he Santa Fe Board of County Commissioners is on the verge of adopting a new land development code, the Sustainable Land Development Code. It contains numerous improvements over the current code, but several deficiencies remain that should addressed and corrected before final adoption. I address below a few of those deficiencies. u Sustainable: A rigorous, relevant definition and statement of purpose for “sustainable” (a whole paragraph at least) must be stated in Chapter 1 of the code.

Sustainability cannot be meaningfully pursued by the code without a rigorous, comprehensive, working definition.

The title of the new code contains the word sustainable, but I find nowhere in the code a comprehensive definition of sustainable relevant to land development in Santa Fe County. The seven uses of sustainable in Appendix A, Part 2: Definitions (p. 374) really say nothing, provide no comprehensive, applicable definition of sustainable land development.

Is the objective to sustain land development and developers? To promote and sustain good economic, functional, cultural, aesthetic and social features of communities? To promote and retain good composition of new communities?

Something else? A definition of sustainable should have rigor at least compara-

ble to that given typical physical requirements in Chapters 5, 7 and 10. u Periodic review: Section 1.13. Periodic review is a cruel joke. It must be made serious by imposing on the board of commissioners and county staff formal, comprehensive, public reviews of the new code at intervals no greater than five years that identify weaknesses, inadequacies and necessary changes. u Appendix B: Use Matrix: The matrix must have a legend defining the several numbers and symbols used in its rows and columns. For example, what do 1110, 1250, A, C, X mean? This is an unprofessional matrix. u Archaeological survey: Archaeological survey should be included among required reports in Section 6.1.2 and subsequent sections of Chapters 6 and 7; it is not. In New Mexico, archaeological surveys are about as important as reports on environmental, water, traffic and fiscal impacts, and my understanding is that the state requires them. u Sustainable community: The code is incomplete in addressing sustainable communities. In particular, the code really does not protect residential areas from imposition and degradation by juxtaposed commercial and industrial developments; it does not demand good integration of such diverse and conflicting functions. This is particularly important

for areas designated as mixed use.

The new code must place rigorous functional, architectural and aesthetic requirements on location and integration of commercial, institutional and industrial entities with residential areas. The new code must move beyond the minimal, superficial integration requirements of past codes. In particular, aesthetics, too long avoided like a plague in processes for approving developments, must now become a required consideration by code, commissioners and county staff to assure high, not declining, qualities of communities.

In conclusion, I pose two questions before commissioners approve or consider this new code. Does the Board of County Commissioners want Santa Fe County to have a forward-thinking land development code that promotes, even forces and achieves truly sustainable, attractive community development in Santa Fe County? Or do commissioners want to continue mediocre modes of past community development? Does the board have the courage to bring aesthetics into the development review and approval process? We cannot expect most developers to have aesthetics high in mind.

R

oosevelt, Stalin, Churchill, Hitler — these were the names that, for much of the world, defined the first half of the 20th century, the most destructive era in history.

Gandhi, King, Mandela — these, it could be argued, are the figures who will live longest in the public consciousness as we look back on the postwar world: leaders who had no real armies to speak of and who wielded little power in office but who helped create a new ethic through the power of their ideas and the example of their lives.

Mohandas Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. were, of course, men of peace, preaching nonviolent resistance to oppression and exploitation. Nelson Mandela, though not a combative man, felt there was no alternative to war against the apartheid government under which he lived, and he spent 27 years in prison for plotting violence against that government. (He and his associates planned a campaign of nonlethal sabotage and envisioned a military front, neither of which had come to much before he was arrested.)

Mandela emerged from prison in 1990 with greater stature than any leader in South Africa, white or black. More important, he came out espousing reconciliation, understanding and forgiveness. Although he was an old man by the time he took power in his country, and delegated much of the work of governing to others, the trust he had gained among people in just about every camp was essential in South Africa’s transition from a racial dictatorship to a true democracy.

Like Gandhi and King, Nelson Mandela had personal shortcomings, domestic discord and so on. But it was, to a large degree, the overwhelming and reassuring force of his personality that won over nearly everyone he came in contact with, from African villagers to prison guards to the men who ran his government. He was a regal figure, born into tribal royalty, tall, handsome and charming. He moved comfortably and confidently among his country’s many peoples — black, Indian, white — and made a point of seeing the good in each of them. As one of his admirers remarked, he had the gift of making all those he met feel better about themselves.

Also as with Gandhi and King, Mandela engaged in one of the world’s most vital postwar tasks: dismantling the strong web of racist ideas, with which certain Western thinkers had sought for more than a century to rationalize the subjugation of others through colonialism, segregation and disenfranchisement. Anyone born in the past 50 years or so would have a hard time understanding how pervasive these ideas were in many advanced and sophisticated nations (including our own, which in much of its territory bore an unsettling resemblance to apartheid South Africa).

Mandela, who died Thursday night at age 95, seemed to understand that the motivating force behind ethnic, religious and racial hatred is not only, or even primarily, self-interest; it is fear, distrust, a lack of understanding. In his person and his policies, he set out to show those on the other side that they had little to fear. He sought unity rather than revenge, honesty and understanding rather than the naked exercise of power. These are all fine abstractions, of course, but never so clear to us as when there is a living figure to exemplify them.

That’s why Mandela’s influence extended so far beyond South Africa and was felt by so many of the world’s peoples other than Africans. It is the reason, now that he is gone, that it is more important than ever — in a century marked so far by eruptions of terror and religious intolerance — to keep before the world the name and example of Nelson Mandela.

Jay Z’s 9 tops Grammy nods

J

ay Z easily led Grammy Award nominations announced Friday with nine, but left-of-center rappers Macklemore & Ryan Lewis and Kendrick Lamar were among a group of new stars who took many of the major nominations.

Macklemore and Lewis’ gay marriage anthem “Same Love” was among song of the year nominees, and the Seattle rap crew joined Los Angeles rapper Lamar with seven nominations apiece, including best album and best new artist of the year. Pharrell Williams had four major nominations among his seven and Justin Timberlake also had seven.

Macklemore and Lewis dominated a nominations TV special from the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles that also included performances by nominees Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Lorde and Robin Thicke.

They opened the show with a colorful, high-energy version of their hit “Thrift Shop,” featuring Wanz, and immediately picked up a song of the year nomination for “Same Love.”

Two nominations later, Ben Haggerty, the rapper known as Macklemore, was noting it was a “very surreal moment,” during an on-air interview with host LL Cool J. “It’s like we’re not supposed to be here, but we’re here with LL Cool J.” Recording Academy favorites Timberlake and Jay Z teamed up for two nominations apiece, but they only had one major nomination between them this year and that came for Jay Z’s participation on Lamar’s album of the year nominee “good kid, m.A.A.d city” instead of his own Magna Carta … Holy Grail.

Williams, who seemed to be everywhere in 2013, is up for producer of the year and faces himself in three categories, including record of the year for “Get Lucky” with Daft Punk and “Blurred Lines” with Robin Thicke, and album of the year entries Random Access Memories by Daft Punk and Lamar’s “good kid.”

Fawcett portrait worth $12M, expert tells jury

Warhol’s Fawcett

LOS ANGELES — New York art appraiser Lee Drexler says an Andy Warhol portrait of Farrah Fawcett currently held by actor Ryan O’Neal is worth an estimated $12 million.

O’Neal is being sued by the University of Texas at Austin, which wants the actor to turn over the painting because Fawcett left the school all of her artwork upon her death in 2009. O’Neal contends the portrait was a gift to him from Warhol.

Drexler’s opinion could be used if a jury opts to award the university damages from O’Neal.

LONDON — Pianist and composer Stan Tracey, the elder statesman of Britain’s jazz scene, has died at the age of 86.

London-born Tracey began playing piano during World War II after a stint as an accordionist. He went on to perform with the popular Ted Heath Orchestra and spent several years as resident pianist at Ronnie Scott’s jazz club.

His compositions included the “Under Milk Wood” suite, based on the Dylan Thomas radio play.

LOBOS MEN’S BASKETBALL

UNM to face down Kilpatrick, Cincinnati

By Will Webber The New Mexican

ALBUQUERQUE — Depending on whose point of view you take, the closing moments of last year’s University of New Mexico-Cincinnati men’s college basketball game offer a huge contrast in fireside chats.

On one side is Alex Kirk, UNM’s 7-foot junior center who ranks second on the team in scoring (19.1 points per game) and tops in rebounding (11.0) and blocked shots (3.7).

On the other is Cincinnati’s Sean Kilpatrick, a 6-4 senior guard who leads the Bearcats in scoring (19.7) and is shooting a robust .489 from 3-point range.

Toward the end of UNM’s 55-54 upset of then-No. 8 Cincinnati, the Lobos’ big man rejected a Kilpatrick drive to the hoop to help seal a huge nonconference win.

The two will reunite Saturday afternoon in The Pit when the unbeaten Bearcats (7-0) visit Albuquerque for a 2:05 p.m. tipoff against the Lobos

(6-1). The game will be broadcast live nationally on CBS Sports Network and will be available on the radio in Santa Fe on KVSF 1400-AM. “We set up the situation about 50 different times,” Kirk says of his run-in with Kilpatrick. “Like right now, clearly in my head, I remember they were basically running a 4-low set and I guarded him one-on-one for the whole shot clock and blocked it.

His was more of a, ‘Oh, he showed up out of the middle of nowhere and just tipped his shot from behind.’

“We’ve had those little rivalries but no, he’s a really good guy and, like I say, he’s a great competitor,” Kirk continues. “To be able to bring a team like him and Justin Jackson into the Pit, that’s a big time thing.”

ree throws missed in December become more glaring in February and March.

Dennis Casados wasn’t about to let that derail what is building up to be a special season for the Santa Fe Preparatory boys basketball program.

After the Blue Griffins missed 14 free throws in a 73-65 loss to Deming in the opening round-robin game of the Al Armendariz Classic on Thursday, Casados, Prep head coach, was determined to not let that become a season-long issue. So when the Blue Griffins gathered for a timeout in the fourth quarter of their second-day game against Santa Fe High on Friday afternoon, he issued a challenge to his team.

“We told them that [the Demons] were going to go to the fouls and we needed to get on that line and make those free throws,” Casados said.

The challenge was accepted and passed, as Prep hit all six free throws in the fourth quarter to squash any Santa Fe High comeback and win 69-59 in Capital’s Edward A. Ortiz Memorial Gymnasium. The Blue Griffins (5-1) actually missed a free throw when Wyeth Carpenter clanged one off the rim with 38.3 seconds left, but Santa Fe High was called for a lane violation to wipe away the miss. Carpenter hit the make-up shot and it was 69-58.

Prep was a perfect 10-for-10 in the second half and 17 of 22 for the game, which was a stark improvement from a 16-for-30 effort against the Wildcats.

“It was big,” said senior guard D.J. Casados, who was a perfect 6-for-6 against Santa Fe High. “I think people were more confident at the line today. I don’t know about [Thursday], but today they were really confident.”

Dragons overcome Braves

If there is one thing that the Santa Fe Indian School boys basketball team needs after a one-win season, it’s confidence.

Even though they lost to Monte del Sol 64-57 in a semifinal game at the SFIS Braves Invite, Monte 64 the Braves made a late-game comeSFIS 57 back that may have changed the attitude of the program.

As SFIS (1-2) was down 57-43 with 3:08 left in the game, Braves head coach Zack Cole called a timeout that would lead a minor comeback.

“It was a crucial timeout from our coach,” said SFIS point guard Robert Calabaza. “That got us pumped up.

He rebuilt our confidence and he got in our heads and got us back in the game.”

The Braves closed the gap to 61-53 with 29 seconds left with a made basket from Francis Calabaza. After that, Robert Calabaza sunk a two-pointer to pull within 62-55. On the ensuing inbound from Monte del Sol (4-0), Francis Calabaza intercepted the pass and scored to cut the Dragons’ lead to 62-57 with only 9 seconds remaining.

“They were beginning to build their lead and we were letting up,” Robert Calabaza said. “We really needed [the timeout].”

Two free throws from Omar Ndiaye, who led the Dragons with 19 points, sealed the win for Monte del Sol, but SFIS may have came away with a victory of its own.

Boise State’s Peterson will coach for Washington

By Tim Booth

The Associated Press

SEATTLE — Chris Petersen is headed to Washington after finally being persuaded to leave Boise State.

Petersen agreed to become the Huskies’ new football coach on Friday, leaving behind an unprecedented run of success with the Broncos.

The Huskies made the announcement Friday morning after Petersen reportedly met with Washington athletic director Scott Woodward on Thursday night in Boise.

The decision was first reported by ESPN. Petersen met with his Boise State players Friday morning before the announcement was made.

“Coach Petersen’s success and record are extraordinary, but even more impressive is the man himself,” Woodward said in a statement released by the school. “His integrity, work ethic and character make him an outstanding fit and leader of our

student-athletes at UW. We are thrilled and proud to call Coach Petersen a Husky.”

Petersen will replace Steve Sarkisian, who went 34-29 in five seasons at Washington before leaving earlier this week to take the job

at USC. Petersen was 92-12 in his eight seasons at Boise State, turning the Broncos into a national program with two Fiesta Bowl titles.

But he’s coming off the worst regular season in his tenure with the Broncos after going 8-4, including a 38-6 loss at Washington in the season opener.

The fact Washington was able to pry Petersen out of Boise can be considered surprising after so many other schools called in the past and

were rebuffed by the Broncos coach.

He took over for Dan Hawkins in 2006 and turned Boise State into the darling of the BCS. Whether it was the audacious trick plays that led to Boise State’s BCS upset of Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl, or the staggering run of victories with Kellen Moore at quarterback, Petersen was the one directing the Broncos’ rise.

“I know Bronco Nation joins me in thanking Chris Petersen for all he did to advance Boise State’s football program over the past thirteen years,” Boise State President Bob Kustra said.

“He is not only a great coach but a great person and an asset to the community. We were lucky to have him at Boise State and Washington is lucky to get him.”

Sports information: James Barron, 986-3045, jbarron@sfnewmexican.com Design and headlines: Eric J. Hedlund, ehedlund@sfnewmexican.com

The Broncos won five conference championships under Petersen and won 12 games in every season between 2008 and 2011.

The Broncos got as high as No. 2 in the AP Top 25 in 2010 and might have found themselves playing in another BCS game if not for an overtime loss at Nevada in the next-to-last game of the regular season.

But the Broncos seemed to plateau this past season. The year started with the blowout loss at Washington, the worst defeat of Petersen’s career.

Boise State lost three more times on the road at Fresno State, at BYU and at San Diego State, and a loss in a bowl game would leave the Broncos with five defeats for the first time since 1998, when they were in their third season at the Football Bowl Subdivision level.

The struggles this season left some wondering if Petersen had already done all he could do at Boise State.

hank you, Cardinals, for restoring our faith in upsets.

Having been around long enough to know Cinderella really doesn’t exist in the New Mexico high school football playoffs, I can attest that it’s nice to have a team like Las Vegas Robertson come along every now and then to offer a smack upside the dome.

The upstart redbirds will host Will Webber Silver in Saturday Commentary afternoon’s Class AAA championship game in Las Vegas. Truth be told, the last team anyone outside the Cardinals’ locker room — admit it, Robertson fans, you are part of the non-believers — expected to see this late in the season was this one.

We all had good reason to dismiss a team that stumbled to a slow start, finished 5-5 in the regular season and lost the biggest game of the season when it fell at home to Taos.

The book on the Cardinals was the same as it has been the last few years: Tough kids, no depth, solid program but definitely beatable. And certainly not a threat to go all the way.

Paired on the same side of the bracket as unbeaten juggernaut St. Michael’s, Robertson began its remarkable turnaround with a first-round upset of Portales, then a stunning upset of the Horsemen on a snowy Saturday in Santa Fe two weeks ago.

It culminated with another upset last week at district rival Taos.

griffins: SF Prep demonstrated quickness Continued from Page B-1 The Blue Griffins also showed they are surprisingly quick for a team that has a 6-foot-4 (Will Lenfestey) and a 6-5 (Ian Andersson) frontcourt.

The Demons (0-4) were sloppy with their passing, especially into the post, and committed 14 turnovers in the first half which contributed mightily to a 25-5 run that turned a 12-3 Santa Fe High lead into a 28-17 edge for Prep.

But the display also showed that Prep’s big men are not as slow as teams might think.

“They look at us as a big ball club, and we are,” coach Casados said. “I can go with three bigs, but I usually have two.

Our bigs can move, though.”

Lenfestey showed that on the break, as he scored three baskets in transition in the first

half. The senior finished with 16 points to lead the Blue Griffins, and 10 came in the first half. D.J. Casados and Francis Castillo y Mulert each had 12.

Santa Fe High lost 6-4 junior forward Hayden Hargrove to a head injury against El Paso (Texas) Bel Air on Thursday, and head coach David Rodriguez said he won’t play the rest of the tournament. The upside to the injury is that it gives his bench a chance to grow.

“We have to look at it as a positive that the guys who are in there, they are getting some valuable minutes and getting better,” Rodriguez said.

One of those players, Warren Fulgenzi Jr., had 11 points in a starting role this time.

Bel Air 62, CApitAl 36 The Highlanders improved to 11-0 on the season as they outscored the host Jaguars 35-19

over the second and third quarters to build a 44-26 lead entering the fourth quarter. Capital never looked sharp throughout the game, as Bel Air used a press in the first half, then a 2-3 zone in the second to stymie the Jaguars.

“We just didn’t execute well at all,” Capital head coach Ben Gomez said. “We didn’t take on their pressure well. We did some ill-advised things, and that’s the product of an inexperienced team.”

Eric Coca had nine points to lead the Jaguars (1-2), while Josh Gallegos had 17 points for Bel Air, who play Prep at 11 a.m. on Saturday.

Deming 76, el pAso YsletA 55 The Wildcats (3-0) scored 43 points in the second half as they extended a 34-22 halftime lead on the Indians (4-8). A day after scoring 31 points, guard

Dominic Saenz had 14 to lead a balanced attack for Deming.

Angel Gil led Ysleta with 10 points.

LADY JAGUAR TOURNAMENT Deming 47, goDDArD 42 The Lady Wildcats (2-2) held off a 22-9 charge by the Lady Rockets (1-3) to win their first game of the tournament. Deming led 12-2 after a quarter and 21-14 at the half. Jessica Jasso had 13 points for Deming, while Bianca Morones had 15 points for Goddard.

VAlenCiA 50, Bel Air 38 Corina Dow had 20 points and Brenda Barea added 12 to lead the Lady Jaguars (2-1) to the win after missing the first day of the tournament because of Thursday’s snowstorm.

Bel Air (8-3) was led by Linae Ramos’ 15 points.

unm: Lobos to lean on their big-frame men Continued from Page B-1 brutal five-game stretch in which it will play New Mexico State twice, Cincinnati at home, Marquette on a neutral floor and Kansas at a neutral site in Kansas City.

Head coach Craig Neal, whose club began this span with a 79-70 win at NMSU on Wednesday, says the key to beating Cincinnati is handling their full-court pressure and avoiding the kind of turnovers that created so many headaches earlier this season in games against Alabama-Birmingham and Massachusetts.

Of course, there’s always going to be concern over Kilpatrick. What the Lobos do to counteract him, Neal says, is do

what they do best: Go to their big men. “[The Bearcats] don’t have any big-frame guys like we do, so hopefully we can take advantage of that inside game that we have,” he says.

By that, lean on Kirk and 6-9 senior forward Cameron Bairstow. In describing Bairstow as the strongest player he’s ever had in his seven years with the UNM program, Neal says the Lobos’ strength has been the play of their post players.

Just don’t expect to see a lot of 7-foot freshman Obij Aget if Bairstow gets into foul trouble.

Neal says Kirk and Aget tend not to compliment one another the way Bairstow and Aget do; a fact that was made clear when the Lobos held

off NMSU despite Kirk’s foul trouble in the first half.

The best way to combat Cincinnati’s athleticism is to take care of the ball and crash the boards with abandon. The Bearcats have a reputation for long, lean, athletic players who use speed and persistence to disrupt play at both ends of the floor.

Kirk knows all about this, particularly the play of Kirkpatrick.

The two were teammates on the U.S. national team that participated in the World University Games in Russia over the summer. The two became friends and have remained in touch.

What Kirk wants is a not-sowarm welcome from The Pit faithful.

“I don’t think they’ve been in

an environment like the Pit,” he says. “They were playing in the Big East last year. I think they were in some big environments playing against some big names right there. The Pit is a different beast. We’ll see how they get used to it and we’ll see how the altitude helps them out, too.” rio grAnDe riVAlrY The UNM women’s team will host New Mexico State on Saturday night at 7 in The Pit. Unlike the men who have a home-and-home series every season, the Lobos (3-4) and Aggies (3-5) play only once a year in women’s hoops.

UNM leads the all-time series 46-22, having won 33 of the last 34 meetings dating back to 1996. NMSU’s only win came in 2007 in Las Cruces.

Braves: Coach encouraged playing hard Continued from Page B-1 challenges was changing the losing mentality at SFIS, and he believes he finally may have broken through to his players.

“My point of emphasis in the timeout was to play hard,” he said. “We had instances last year where we would put our heads down when the games were getting away from us and we would fall apart. We’re trying to emphasize playing 32 minutes. Our message is to be positive and stay positive.”

The Braves were not always down though, as they had a 7-3 lead at the end of the first quarter. On top of that, they kept

the Dragons from scoring for the first 5 minutes, 57 seconds of the game.

In the second quarter, the Dragons took the lead and were up 27-23 at halftime.

“My players woke up and understood that these guys [SFIS] came to play,” Monte del Sol head coach Nick Rivera said.

Cardinals: A truly improbable comeback Continued from Page B-1 AAA club for 2013.

In a word, unbelievable.

Some of Roberston’s players have used words like “team of destiny” and “all heart” to allow room for us to make sense of what’s going on. Head coach Leroy Gonzalez, easily one of the more likable guys in his profession thanks to his folksy style, has pointed to the team’s bout with multiple injuries to explain the .500 mark in

the regular season.

No matter. Fact is, what the Cardinals are doing is simply stunning.

Teams that lose by 50 points to St. Michael’s don’t return to that same field two months later and pull out a win. Just doesn’t happen.

In hoops, maybe. In baseball, absolutely. In just about every other sport, sure.

In football, no way. Games are too long and, often times, the disparity in talent is rarely

(if ever) overcome the second time around. Basketball and baseball are different, as it is with other sports. With fewer players or, in baseball’s case, a new pitcher taking the mound, finding upsets isn’t that hard.

Happens every year.

You could make the argument that Clayton’s upset of previously unbeaten Santa Rosa, a team the Yellowjackets lost handily to in the regular season, is similar to Robertson’s feat. You can point to

No. 1 Valley getting smeared

by Las Cruces last week as another upset.

They were surprises, yes, but nothing on the magnitude of what we’re seeing in ‘Vegas.

And for that, thank you Robertson. In the span of four short weeks you’ve shown that it is possible to believe in little things like fairy tales, Santa Claus, unicorns and, above all, upsets during the football playoffs.

CLASS AAA STATE FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP

Silver, Robertson have evolved into true contenders

By James Barron

The New Mexican

Evolution — Defined as the gradual development of something, especially from a simple to a more complex form.

It was the only way to describe how the Silver Colts and the Las Vegas Robertson Cardinals are still alive in the Class AAA football season.

Neither team looks — or plays — the way it did when the last week of August signaled the beginning of the season. Saturday afternoon will be the completion of that evolutionary process that has brought these two programs to Cardinals Field in Las Vegas, N.M., to battle for the Class AAA championship at 1 p.m.

For third-seeded Silver, it went from an inexperienced group trying to fill the large shoes of a senior class that went to two AAA semifinals and a AAA title appearance during its tenure with no identity, to a cohesive unit with an explosive offense. Over the last four games, Silver has scored 191 points, led by quarterback Derek Salas.

A senior and one of the few returning starters from a season ago, Salas has emerged as the vital cog to the Colts’ attack. He has 2,600 passing yards and 31 touchdowns as he emerged from the background of a running game that dominated last year’s team.

That coincided with a 5-1 finishing kick that brought Silver (10-3) to its

second straight championship game.

“This is been a maturation process from day one, and it didn’t come quick,” Silver head coach Butch Branson said. “They’ve had to learn some things, some discipline, and how to play together. I think it was about the sixth or seventh game that we started to realize this group could reach some of the goals we set for them.”

Robertson’s evolution into a championship finalist was more a case of physical healing than a maturation.

The Cardinals missed running back Dominic Lucero for two games early, and didn’t have fully healthy offensive and defensive lines until the final game of the regular season against West Las Vegas.

Since then, No. 9 Robertson (8-5) has become the ball-control team head coach Leroy Gonzalez believed it could be. The Cardinals ran for more than 300 yards in a 22-13 quarterfinal upset of top seed St. Michael’s. In last week’s 21-16 win over Taos, Robertson had 256 rushing yards and chewed up valuable time in the second half.

“I think that has been the unit that has been carrying us through the playoffs,” Gonzalez said. “They take pride in what they do and that is huge for us.”

Perhaps the biggest challenge the Colts and Cardinals face is one they can’t control — the weather. Las Vegas received 8 inches of snow Thursday, and work crews spent most of Friday

Gonzalez said his team has practiced exclusively outdoors over the past few weeks, although the Cardinals worked indoors the past two days. Branson said his team routinely practices into the night.

NFL

Texans fire head coach after 11th straight loss

By Darrell Lovell

The Associated Press

HOUSTON — Gary Kubiak pulled the Texans out of the NFL basement and remains the only coach to take them to the playoffs.

That wasn’t enough to save his job, not with the Texans mired in an 11-game skid that has dropped them back to the bottom of the league.

Houston fired Kubiak on Friday, one day after the Texans lost 27-20 at Jacksonville and continued their stunning fall for a team that expected to make a Super Bowl run. Houston (2-11) was flagged 14 times for a franchise-record 177 yards.

The 52-year-old Kubiak was hired in 2006 and led the team to AFC South titles in 2011-2012, the highlights of his eight-year tenure as coach of his hometown NFL team.

The Texans said they couldn’t wait any longer to start turning things around, not with the losses and undisciplined play piling up.

“What’s taken place with this organization is unacceptable,” general manager Rick Smith said. “We’ve got three weeks of an evaluation process left and we’ve got to right the ship.”

Kubiak thanked the team for giving him his first head coaching job in the NFL. “Though we came up short this season, the work, effort

The Associated Press

Silver ‘bullet’: While the Spartans’ defense has generated great attention this week, the Buckeyes defense is no second-class citizen. Nationally, Ohio State is No. 5 against the run (100.0 yards), No. 18 in points allowed (20.3) and No. 30 in yards per game (355.8).

Rosy scenario: A loss might not be the end of Michigan State’s hopes. If the Buckeyes go to the BCS title game, there’s a reasonable chance the Spartans could become the second Big Ten team in a BCS bowl and play in the 100th Rose Bowl.

That wouldn’t be a bad consolation prize, though the Spartans aren’t thinking that way.

Double trouble: Hyde and Miller have combined to run for 1,070 yards and 13 TDs in Ohio State’s last three games.

If that continues this weekend, Hyde and Miller could become the seventh and eighth players in school history to reach the 3,000-yard mark on the ground. Hyde needs 33 yards, Miller needs 133.

Experience matters?: Michigan State hopes its previous experience in Indy helps this weekend. The Spartans are back in the title game for the second time in three years. They lost the first league title game to Wisconsin. Ohio State, meanwhile, has 34 league titles, second to Michigan (42), but this is the Buckeyes first trip to Lucas Oil Stadium.

Temper, temper: A week after three Buckeyes were entangled in a fight, the Buckeyes come to Indy with all hands on deck. Neither of the two identified players, starting offensive lineman Marcus Hall and kick returner and backup running back Dontre Wilson, were suspended by the Big Ten or the school. You can bet some college fans will be watching closely to see if there’s a repeat.

and sacrifice they gave me and this organization over the last eight seasons is not to be taken for granted,” he said in a stateGary Kubiak ment provided by the Texans.

“We had a great run here and we will never forget our backto-back AFC South championships. Coming back home was a dream come true for all of us.

This will always be our home.”

Kubiak’s overall record is 61-64, with a 2-2 mark in the playoffs. Owner Bob McNair said the decision to let him go was a hard one.

“It was difficult for me because I think so much of Gary,” McNair said. “We’ve been evaluating it every game and asking the question, ‘What’s in the best interest of the organization?’ We’re at the point now where we need to go ahead and make some changes because losing like this is unacceptable.”

He added: “We’re here to have a winning culture and this year has not contributed to that.”

The Texans said defensive coordinator Wade Phillips would serve as interim coach for the rest of what has been a miserable season.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Pacing the sideline in street clothes for nine games this season was downright difficult for 12-time Pro Bowl cornerback Champ Bailey.

Standing there, helmet in hand, as the Chiefs drove 83 yards in the closing minutes of the Broncos’ game at Kansas City last weekend was pure anguish.

Even though he was active for the first time in more than a month, the 12-time Pro Bowler was helpless once again to do anything more than cheer on his teammates in the fourth quarter as he’s done for all but one game this season.

“I think I got to the point where I knew I needed to shut it down. That was the decision we made and we live with it,” said Bailey, whose day was done by halftime. “My thing now is just to get my body and my mind right and just try to keep getting better.”

Soothing his suffering was safety Mike Adams, who knocked away Alex Smith’s fourth-down pass to Dwayne Bowe in the end zone from the Denver 13 after rookie cornerback Kayvon Webster slipped on the play.

That preserved Denver’s 35-28 win that gave the Broncos (10-2) control of the AFC playoff race in their quest to atone for last year’s playoff failure.

Bailey, 35, who logged 30 snaps in his first game since aggravating a nagging left foot injury in an Oct. 20 loss at Indianapolis, said he realizes he’s not

going to ever be 100 percent this season.

Bailey hurt his foot in a preseason game at Seattle and didn’t Champ Bailey play until Week 5 against Jacksonville, where he had six tackles in the only full game he’s played this season. But he reinjured the foot the following week against the Colts and didn’t play again until Sunday, when cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie was out with a shoulder injury.

Playing mostly in the nickel package, Bailey had the wind knocked out of him on a tackle just two plays into the game and left for several snaps before returning and finishing the first half with four tackles. After halftime, Webster and Chris Harris Jr. were the cornerbacks in the base defense with Quentin Jammer replacing Bailey in the nickel.

“Clearly he was a little bit rusty in terms of not feeling comfortable and being at his best,” defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio said. “The guy is a 12-time Pro Bowl player. He’s an excellent football player. But everybody needs to sharpen their skills to stay on top and so he’s no different than anybody else in that regard and we expect him to be a week better.”

“I’m better. I think it was a good test last week to see where I was,” Bailey said. “I’m obviously not where I want to be. It’s just trying to be patient with it.”

Offseason surgery isn’t in the offing.

United States faces 9,000 miles of travel in Brazil

3-point mark, Hawks beat Cavs

Spain gets repeat of 2010 final Kyle Korver sets

By John Leicester

The Associated Press

COSTA DO SAUIPE, Brazil — One of the worst finals in World Cup history — Spain vs. the Netherlands — will be reprised in one of the first games at the 2014 edition.

But Friday’s draw proved kind, of sorts, for Brazil. The host nation should make short work of its Group A. Brazil, however, could then bang up against the Spanish or the Dutch in the very first knockout game. Should it lose, not unimaginable against such pedigree teams, the host nation’s sorrow would surely suck some of the samba-loving sense of fun out of the tournament.

Three former winners — Italy, Uruguay and England — were tossed together in one daunting group, meaning at least one of them is bound to go home early.

The United States drew one of the shortest straws. Its game schedule will send Jurgen Klinsmann’s team pinging around on a 9,000-mile trip around the world’s fifth-largest country.

Having only squeezed into the tournament via the playoffs, 1998 winner France could hardly believe its luck, drawing a manageable group of Switzerland, Ecuador, and Honduras.

Argentina, champion in 1978 and 1986, first plays Bosnia-Herzegovina, the only World Cup newcomer among the 32 teams.

That will be the first of seven games at Rio de Janeiro’s Maracana stadium, which also hosts the July 13 final. Argentina, a favorite to win with four-time world player of the year Lionel Messi, then plays Iran and Nigeria, which it beat in all three previous World Cup encounters.

Argentina will be heavily favored to come out top of its Group F. If so, it could find either Switzerland or France in its way in its first knockout game. Those European nations will be hoping to avoid Argentina by topping their Group E. Defending champion Spain and the

Netherlands, a three-time finalist, first play each other. Hopefully, it won’t be a repeat of the horror show that was the 2010 final, when referee Howard Webb showed a record 14 yellow cards and could have sent off several players, instead of just the one.

Netherlands coach Louis van Gaal said that history should challenge the teams to do better on June 13. He and Spain coach Vincent del Bosque both warned against underestimating Chile, even though it lost 6 of its 16 qualifying games, shipping 25 goals.

Del Bosque said the South Americans’ “style of play is very impressive, they make it very uncomfortable for opponents. They are very hard-working, a very difficult team.”

Spain and the Netherlands will both want to top their Group B, which also includes a very unimpressive Australia, because the second-placed team faces the prospect of then meeting Brazil.

Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari didn’t want to think that far ahead, saying: “If you start thinking about the second round you forget about the teams in the first round,

which are important.”

Brazil kicks off its campaign for a sixth World Cup title with the opening match on June 12 against Croatia. That could be a daunting experience for the Croats, playing their fourth World Cup. Full-throated support from home fans helped lift Brazil at the Confederations Cup warm-up tournament in June, where it beat world champion Spain in the final.

In Group A, the home team also plays Mexico, which is competing in its sixth successive World Cup but which had to beat New Zealand in a playoff to qualify for the 2014 tournament.

Brazil’s last match is against Cameroon, which has only advanced once from the group stage in six appearances.

Cameroon coach Volker Finke was concerned about the heat and humidity his players will face in their second match, in the Amazon basin city of Manaus.

Finke wasn’t alone. England coach Roy Hodgson had also voiced misgivings before Friday’s draw, drawing a swift rebuke from the Manaus mayor.

the first five this season. She had been aiming to return last week at Beaver Creek, Colo., not far from her hometown of Vail, but scrapped those plans after a training crash Nov. 19.

Vonn entered Friday with a seven-race winning streak at Lake Louise, and 14 of her 59 career World Cup victories came at the resort in the Canadian Rockies, a big reason she set the bar high.

“It does take a little time to build the confidence back up,” said Vonn, who said she plans to take part in Saturday’s downhill and Sunday’s super-G. “It’s been a long time.”

She said her right knee, which she protects with a brace when skiing, was “fine.” Hoefl-Riesch, though, said Vonn told her the “knee was kind of bothering her.”

Vonn finished in 1:59.22, and spent plenty of time walking around afterward signing autographs — hats, helmets, gloves, even a red sneaker — and posing for pictures with fans.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Mars enters your sign and creates a likelihood that diplomacy will fly out of the window in the next few weeks. You are likely to express your feelings. Tonight: Very playful.

It’s up to mother to protect young son Dear Annie: Since childhood, my mother has told me she never wanted me. I now have two children of my own. At one point, I became homeless, and my parents took me in. But I became ill and needed major surgery. While recovering, my brother’s son came over often and would constantly pick on my sons.

My parents did nothing.

One day, I heard my youngest son screaming, and when I checked, I saw my 10-year-old nephew hurting him and trying to molest him. I confronted my parents and my brother about allowing this behavior to go on, and Mom said to forget about it.

Dad said nothing. Now my mother has disowned me and will have nothing to do with my children.

I have no other family, and this hurts. How can I get my parents to admit that my bully of a nephew has a serious problem? — On the Edge of a Nervous Breakdown Dear Edge: Your nephew does indeed have a problem, but you cannot force your parents to address it.

Your job is to protect your children.

If that means keeping them away from your brother, your parents, your nephew or anyone else, then that is what you do. If the nephew molested your son, you could report the situation to the authorities.

Please look for “family” in your community and church. There are plenty of older adults who would love to be surrogate grandparents for your sons and would treat them with the caring and consideration they deserve.

Dear Annie: I taught in the Maryland public school system for many years before retiring 10 years ago.

Every year at Christmastime, the students gave me Christmas ornaments. Some were homemade from individual students, and others were large and from the whole class. Of course, I thanked each of them. But as the years went on, my appreciation grew as I took them out each season to decorate my tree. I wrote their names on the ornaments, so

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH You might choose to suppress your feelings in order to maintain a more eventempered mood. Tonight: Stay close to home.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH You are likely to say and do what you want. Don’t be surprised if a close friend turns your day upside down with plans that he or she has for you. Tonight: Let the party begin.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH You easily could wonder what is going on with an older friend, relative or someone you have put on a pedestal. Tonight: Treat a close loved one to dinner.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Someone at a distance will reach out to you and demonstrate his or her caring.

You might beam from ear to ear, which could draw others to you. Tonight: Find your friends for a little fun.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Know that you might need some time just for yourself. Explaining that to a loved one could take talent, but know that it is necessary. Tonight: Lie low.

WHITE HAS A CRUSHER Hint: Threaten mate.

Solution: 1. e6! (threatens 2. Qf7ch Kd8 3. Qf8 mate) etc.

Today in history Today is Saturday, Dec. 7, the 341st day of 2013. There are 24 days left in the year.

Today’s highlight in history: On Dec. 7, 1941, Japan launched a surprise attack on the U.S. Navy base at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii as part of its plan to conquer Southeast Asian territories; the raid, which claimed some 2,400 American lives, prompted the United States to declare war against Japan the next day.

Hocus Focus

each year I am able to think lovingly of those children. They continue to make my Christmas special.

To their parents, I thank you for allowing me to teach your children.

Hopefully, those children will have fond memories about some way in which I made them feel special.

They were certainly special to me.

They were one of the reasons I loved to teach. I still think of them and wonder what kind of young adults they’ve become. It was a privilege to help shape their young minds and whet their appetites for learning. I wish them all well and hope they enjoy much success in life. Merry Christmas and happy Hanukkah!

With much love from their 5th grade teacher — Mrs. Helen Gromadzki, The Villages, Fla. Dear Helen: Your letter was so sweet, we had to print it. We hope all of your former students have a chance to see it and possibly reconnect to let you know how their lives have turned out.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Hurting in Miami,” who said her friend of 20 years married some wealthy young man and then cut off contact.

You mentioned in your response that her new husband may be controlling and trying to isolate his new bride. I want to emphasize this point, especially because the woman is young and may have no experience with this type of controlling person.

Please tell “Miami” to try to keep in touch with her friend by email or phone and let her know she is there for her.

This same thing happened to a dear friend. Her new husband was wonderful to her before marriage, but afterward turned into a control freak who isolated her from her family and friends. We were trying to get her out of this toxic situation, but before we could do anything, he threatened her with a gun, and it accidentally went off, and she died.
