Thompson Ridge Fire: Amid damage to scientific sites, Valles Caldera researchers see opportunity to learn
The New Mexican
Thieves in Santa Fe stooped to a new low in June. They made off in the middle of the night with a minilibrary outside of Alice Lee’s house off of Pacheco Street, stealing the bit of magic it had brought to the neighborhood. The mini-library held books people could borrow and return or exchange for free. Lee had seen a few such kiosks in Seattle and became intrigued. A career college English teacher, she decided to create a mini-library with the help of her husband, Wayne Lee. “I wanted to promote literacy, reading and community spirit,” she explained. Mini-libraries started years ago, and they are scattered now around

Behavioral health audit: A primer By Steve Terrell The New Mexican
The recent controversy over the state Human Services Department’s decision to defund 15 behavioralhealth Medicaid providers — after an outside audit reportedly found evidence of widespread fraud — is a complex matter that has raised many questions and sparked a lot of emotions. Here’s a primer to answer some of those questions about the controversy and how it affects both clients and the general public. To start with the most basic question: What does “behavioral health” mean? This is a term that in professional circles has replaced the term “mental health.” Some believe that “behavioral health” is less stigmatizing than the

s the Thompson Ridge Fire swept across the forests and valleys of the Valles Caldera National Preserve in late May, scientists scrambled to get their research equipment out of harm’s way. The fire destroyed many research plots where projects had been underway for years. But the scientists took the damage in stride, focusing on what they can learn from the fire instead of what was lost. Marcy Litvak, a University of New Mexico ecologist, rescued some of her instruments from a tower in the preserve on the second day of the fire. “We still lost quite a few,” she said of the instruments, which measure the interactions between trees, soil and atmosphere. Litvak is studying the ability of different Southwestern forest types to sequester the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide, among other research projects. The preserve’s lead scientist, Bob Parmenter, raced up the day after the fire and began to wrap silver reflecting space blankets around a weather station, one of more than a dozen scattered around the preserve. The fire blasted across the station. On instruments recording changes, “you can see the temperature rise as the fire went through,” Parmenter said. A solar radiometer that measures the sun’s radiation went black as smoke from the fire filled the sky. The station also measured a dip in humidity and increased winds as the blaze blew by, an indication of the weather conditions fires create. “The station survived the fire fine and kept cranking out data,” Parmenter said. Some scientists continued to conduct research just ahead of the blaze. Parmenter and longtime U.S. Geological Survey scientist Craig Allen went out and photographed dozens of places
LEFT: Parmenter at one of the monitoring sites at the preserve. He believes what scientists are learning from the long-term research projects on the Valles Caldera will help the preserve’s land managers in the future. ‘Being able to understand what this type of fire does to the landscape is incredibly important.’

‘A trailblazer for women, disadvantaged’ The Associated Press

Digging for answers Maryland archaeology students seek proof of first free black community By Brian Witte
The Associated Press
E
ASTON, Md. — Archaeology students have been sifting through a little patch of ground on Maryland’s Eastern Shore this summer, seeking evidence that it was home to the nation’s first free African American community. Historians say hundreds of free blacks once lived in the area, while plantations flourished with hundreds of black slaves not far away. The students from the University of Maryland, College Park, and Morgan State University have been digging behind what is now the Women’s Club of Talbot County. The building, part of which dates to at least 1793, was home to three free nonwhite residents, according to the 1800 Census. “We also know that by around 1790 there were a few free African Americans who were actually purchasing property in this neighborhood,” said Stefan Woehlke, a doctoral student at the University of Maryland who has been working at the site. “And so we’re excavating here, one, to figure out what their lives were like and also to better understand the commu-

Musician, songwriter JJ Cale dies at 74 If musicians were measured not by the number of records they sold but by the number of peers they influenced, JJ Cale would have been a towering figure in 1970s rock ‘n’ roll. His best songs like “After Midnight,” ”Cocaine” and “Call Me the Breeze” were towering hits — for other artists. Eric Clapton took “After Midnight” and “Cocaine,” and Lynyrd Skynyrd took the easy-shuffling “Breeze” and supercharged it with a three-guitar attack that made it a hit. Cale, the singer-songwriter and producer known as the main architect of the Tulsa Sound, passed away Friday night La Jolla, Calif. His manager, Mike Kappus, said Cale died of a heart attack. He was 74. The Associated Press

project that involves oral history, since we have families living here on The Hill whose last names are the same as those in the 1790 Census,” Jenkins said. “Families have been here for a long time.” Woelke said the community likely began to develop after Methodists and Quakers who lived in the area freed slaves in the 18th century. Dale Green, a professor of architectural history and preservation who has studied Talbot County records and Census data, estimates that 410 free black residents lived in the neighborhood by 1790. Priscilla Morris is an officer with the local preservation group Historic Easton and has been studying the neighborhood history for more than 10 years. She is hopeful that archaeology will call attention to its historic value and help protect it from development that could obliterate a priceless heritage. Concern about efforts to redevelop the area led to the founding of Historic Easton, and the group is funding the research and the excavation. “There is potential to save the built environment by digging up the cultural significance,” Morris said. “I expect renewed and expanded pride of place to follow. Kids are chasing professor Green during his walking tours this summer and asking him: ‘Are we really the oldest?’ ”
WASHINGTON — Former Rep. Lindy Boggs, a plantation-born Louisianan who used her soft-spoken grace to fight for civil rights during nearly 18 years in Congress after succeeding her late husband in the House, died Saturday. She was 97. Boggs, who later served three years as ambassador to the Vatican during the Clinton administration, died of natural causes at her home in Chevy Chase, Md., according to her daughter, ABC News journalist Cokie Roberts. Boggs’ years in Congress started with a special election in 1973 to finish the term of her husband, Thomas Hale Boggs Sr., whose plane disappeared over Alaska six months earlier. “It didn’t occur to us that anybody else would do it,” Roberts said in Lindy Boggs explaining why her mother was the natural pick for the congressional seat. Roberts called her mother “a trailblazer for women and the disadvantaged.” When Boggs announced her retirement in 1990, she was the only white representing a black-majority district in Congress. “I am proud to have played a small role in opening doors for blacks and women,” she said at the time. As family tragedy brought her in to Congress, so did it usher her out. At the time of her July 1990 announcement, her daughter Barbara Boggs Sigmund, mayor of Princeton, N.J., was dying of cancer. Lindy Boggs was more than the typical congressional wife. She ran several of her husband’s political campaigns and helped him in his Washington and New Orleans offices. “Early on, Hale established with politicians at home that I was his direct representative and that they could say anything to me that they could say to him. Whatever decisions I made, they would be his final decisions,” she said in 1976. Breaking with most Southern whites, Lindy Boggs saw civil rights as an inseparable part of the political reform movement of the 1940s and ’50s. She worked for the Civil Rights Acts of 1965 and 1968, Head Start and other programs to help minorities, the poor and women. After she entered Congress, Boggs used her seat on the House Appropriations Committee to steer money to New Orleans and the rest of the state. As a member of the House Banking and Currency Committee, she used typical steely grace to include women in the Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1974. Boggs changed the way politics operated, former Sen. J. Bennett Johnston, D-La., once said. “I’ve seen it time after time,” Johnston said. “On difficult issues, powerful men and women are going toe to toe, sometimes civilly, sometimes acrimoniously. Lindy Boggs will come into the room. The debate will change. By the time she leaves the room, she usually has what she came to get.”

Dozens of Morsi backers killed in Egypt bloodshed By Aya Batrawy and Tony G. Gabriel The Associated Press
CAIRO — Security forces and armed men clashed with supporters of Egypt’s ousted president early Saturday, killing at least 65 people in mayhem that underscored an increasingly heavy hand against protests demanding Mohammed Morsi’s return to office. In chaotic scenes, pools of blood stained the floor and bodies were lined up under white sheets in a makeshift hospital near the site of the battles in eastern Cairo. Doctors struggled to cope with the flood of dozens of wounded, many with gunshots to the head or chest. It was the deadliest single outbreak of violence since the military ousted Morsi on July 3 and one of the deadliest in over two
years of turmoil in Egypt. It was not immediately clear if all the 65 killed were all protesters or if residents who joined the fight against the march were among the dead. The Brotherhood said that 66 Morsi supporters were killed in the Cairo violence. The extent of the bloodshed pointed to a rapidly building confrontation between the country’s two camps, sharply divided over the coup that removed Egypt’s first freely elected president after widespread protests against him. Authorities talk more boldly of making a move to end weeks of protests by Morsi’s largely Islamist supporters. At the same time, the Islamists are growing more assertive in challenging security forces as they try to win public backing for their cause. Saturday’s clashes were sparked when pro-Morsi pro-
testers sought to expand their main Cairo sit-in camp by moving onto a nearby main boulevard, only to be confronted by police and armed civilians — reportedly residents of nearby neighborhoods. Police initially fired tear gas but in ensuing clashes, the protesters came under gunfire. Officials from Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood and their allies decried what they called a new “massacre” against their side, only weeks after July 8 clashes with army troops in Cairo that left more than 50 Morsi supporters dead. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said that he spoke to Egyptian authorities, saying it is “essential” they respect the right to peaceful protest. He called on all sides to enter a “meaningful political dialogue” to “help their country take a
step back from the brink.” U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon also asked security forces to “act with full respect for human rights” and demonstrators to “exercise restraint.” But neither side has shown much taste for reconciliation. Islamists staunchly reject the new leadership and insist the only possible solution to the crisis is to put Morsi back in office. Meanwhile, the interim leadership is pushing ahead with a fasttrack transition plan to return to a democratically elected government by early next year. The military-backed authorities appear confident of public support for a tougher hand after millions turned out for nationwide rallies Friday called by army chief Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi as a mandate against “terrorism and violence.” Interior Minister Mohammed

LET’S SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT ON THE PUEBLO RATE RIDERS! Dear Members and Customers,
As you may know, the Cooperative is a non-‐profit corporation with the only source of revenue being the sale of electricity to its customers. When the cost of providing electricity increases, the customers must necessarily pay more. The current Board of Trustees inherited the problem of expired pueblo easements and had to solve these problems in the exercise of due diligence. Renewing and paying for the easements is expensive and adds to the cost of electric service. However, before the Cooperative can pass additional costs along, the Cooperative must receive approval from the Public Regulation Commission. The Public Regulation Commission approves the rates charged to consumers and determines the methodology and formula for the rates, not the Board of Trustees!
Unfortunately, some candidates for Trustee and other members of the community are misleading and misinforming customers by claiming that the Board has made decisions to pass on costs for the pueblo easements using a formula that would be unfair to certain communities. These individuals have been fully informed as to the facts but continue to mislead the public in order to gain political advantage, and once again, the Board is forced to take corrective action, costing everyone. The Board has not developed a formula for how to charge customers the added expense of the easements for those living within the pueblo boundaries -‐-‐-‐ the Public Regulation Commission made the decision and ordered the implementation of the formula.
In fact, the Board of Trustees does not support the current PRC formula as applied to certain communities and will continue to work with the PRC to achieve a fair result for all. Sincerely,
Kenneth Borrego President, Board of Trustees Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative, Inc.

near Redondo Peak before the fire reached the area. They took the global positioning system coordinates at each site. “We’ll go back in a few weeks and photograph the same areas. We’ll keep rephotographing over the years to track vegetation growth and erosion,” Parmenter said. From the time Congress bought the 89,000-acre former livestock ranch and created the preserve, it has served as a perfect outdoor laboratory. Researchers are tracking the impact of fire, drought, bugs and climate change on water, mammals, plants, trees, birds and insects. What they learn could help land managers and policymakers grapple with the dramatic landscape changes scientists believe are already underway. Fire is one of those changes.
Burning up Fire has been part of the history of Southwestern forests for centuries. Nature burned through the forests on a regular basis, with low-intensity fires burning close to the ground and cleaning out forest debris, dead pine needles and weaker trees. The fires in the last decade are different. They burn hotter, more intensely and across much larger acreage. The fire season lasts longer. Fires race up the sides of large trees and into the tree-top crowns instead of crawling along the ground. Whole stands of trees, weakened by overcrowding, drought and bugs, succumb to these fires. Scientists believe the longer, hotter, drier fire seasons are going to continue as the full measure of climate change unfolds. Parmenter believes what scientists are learning from the long-term research projects on the Valles Caldera will help the preserve’s land managers in the future. “Being able to understand what this type of fire does to the landscape is incredibly important,” he said. “Scientists are predicting longer fire seasons, hotter and drier, less snowpack and faster runoff. “We can sit here and wring our hands about it or learn what we can do and how we can manage it. That’s what we’re trying to do here. That’s our job.” Two years before the Thompson Ridge blaze scorched almost 24,000 acres in the preserve, the Las Conchas Fire wiped out thousands more. “We had started a bunch of research projects following the Las Conchas Fire with the idea it wasn’t the last large fire in the Valles Caldera,” Parmenter said. “There’s still lots of unburned forest, and in the future, the trees will grow back. We want to learn as much as we can about what fire does to the landscape.”
Looking for answers What happens if hot fires melt the soil and all the seeds in the ground? How does fire affect the insects and small mammals on which larger species depend for survival? What are the changes to habitat? These questions are among dozens scientists from a swath of universities and institutes are studying in the preserve. The Thompson Ridge Fire was, in some ways, a researcher’s dream. Scientists had established research plots in forested areas burned by the Las Conchas Fire and

control sites with trees that hadn’t burned. “Thompson Ridge burned through the Redondo Peak area and burned exactly half the ponderosa pine and mixed-conifer control plots,” Parmenter said. “The statistics gods were smiling on us.” The researchers already had two years of data from the control plots left unburned by Las Conchas. Now with half of those control plots burned by a different fire, they can add another dimension to the research. Litvak’s tower was in a sub-alpine forest she and her team had studied for 6½ years, trying to glean how much carbon dioxide the trees breathe in and how that’s affected by drought or higher temperatures. The trees had already been decimated by the spruce budworm due to drought and were ripe for fire. “That’s probably a reason it burned so hot,” she said. She’ll now put in a new tower and instruments to track what happens as the area recovers. She’ll add a second tower in a nearby unburned portion of the forest.
Tiniest to the mightiest Several research plots set up years ago have provided data on insects, spiders, mites, millipedes and a host of other invertebrates that live in forests. Half of those sites also burned in the Thompson Ridge blaze. “Again, we can now analyze which species survived and how they adapt,” Parmenter said. “That tells us a lot about ecological function.” Ecological function is the web of life in a particular area, the ability for a landscape to survive disasters and recover. “As long as invertebrates are around, the ecological function can recover,” Parmenter said. “Invertebrates, in general, rule the world. If most vertebrates disappeared tomorrow, it would hardly make a difference.” The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Systematic Entomology Laboratory and the Smithsonian Institution are monitoring invertebrates such as moths. More than 400 species of moth are known to congregate in the Valles Caldera. Fire might upset the balance, allowing one species to domi-

nate the others. How such a change would impact the forest, for better or worse, is the kind of thing scientists want to know. Other groups are studying ants, bats and amphibians such as the endangered Jemez Mountains salamander. Some are studying aquatic insects and how post-fire floods will affect them. The Albuquerque-based nonprofit Hawks Aloft and other groups are studying the impact of fire on birds in the preserve. “We were very interested in tracking birds in the Valles Caldera to see if they do what birds do after fires in other areas,” Parmenter said. After the Las Conchas Fire burned grasslands in the preserve, scientists noted that the populations of ground-breeding birds declined for more than a year. “Groundbreeding birds need a lot of thatch and cover. The first year after a fire, there’s a lot of green grass, but not much cover,” Parmenter said. “It turns out, we think, that the architecture of the cover on the ground still hadn’t recovered in the first year.” How long it takes the grasslands to once again attract ground-breeding birds will be important information for land managers who conduct future prescribed burns in the Valles Caldera. Large mammals are another research interest at the preserve. James Cain of New Mexico State University and his team are in the second year of a study to determine how mule deer, elk, black bears and cougars respond to different forest restoration techniques such as tree thinning and prescribed fire. The research is part of the Southwest Jemez Mountains Landscape Restoration Project, an effort by local pueblos, federal agencies and communities to reduce catastrophic fire risks across thousands of acres. Cain’s team is looking at how restoration methods change the abundance and nutritional value of different forages for deer and elk. “I’m hoping to learn how these animals respond to these treatments both in the short and the long term,” he said. Their research area covers most of the Valles Caldera and the Jemez Ranger District of the Santa Fe National Forest. “The Thompson Ridge Fire blew right through the middle of it,” Cain said. In the short term, the fire has been an annoyance, Cain said. Roads into the preserve were closed because of flooding and his graduate students haven’t been able to get to their monitoring sites within the burned area. “In the long term, just like the Las Conchas Fire, it adds another research dimension,” Cain said. The researchers were able to watch what happened to their radio-collared bear, deer, elk and cougar as the fire whipped through. The elk and deer moved away from the fire. So did the bear, except for one. “One of our bears may have died, but we’re not sure if it was before the fire or what,” Cain said. “When someone got out there, all they found was pieces of the collar, no bones. All we know is the collar signal quit moving right about the time the fire started.” Contact Staci Matlock at 986-3055 or smatlock@sfnewmexican.com. Follow her on Twitter @StaciMatlock.

PIERMONT, N.Y. — A deadly nighttime speedboat crash on the Hudson River hurled a bride-to-be and her fiance’s best man into the water and left the groom and three others injured, including a friend charged with vehicular manslaughter on Saturday, just two weeks before the couple was to exchange their vows. Six friends were on board the boat Friday night when it struck a barge near the Tappan Zee Bridge, sending Lindsey Stewart and Mark Lennon, both 30, into the water and injuring the other four, including groom-to-be Brian Bond, officials said. A body matching Stewart’s description was recovered Saturday while Lennon is presumed dead, Rockland County Sheriff’s Department Chief William Barbera said. The search for Lennon’s body will resume Sunday. “The search has been suspended this evening and the tides have a lot to do with that,” Barbera said. “We’ll start again first thing in the morning.” Authorities charged the boat’s operator, Jojo John, 35, of Nyack with vehicular manslaughter and vehicular assault. He was arraigned from a hospital bed and ordered held on $250,000 bond, Barbera said. John is suspected of operating the boat while intoxicated, but authorities are still awaiting the result of blood tests. Attempts to reach John’s family were not immediately successful and it was not clear if he had an attorney. Earlier Saturday, authorities pulled a woman’s body from the water that matched Stewart’s description. Officials were working to confirm that the body was Stewart’s but it was unclear how long that could take. Stewart and Lennon were
thrown from the boat when it struck a barge carrying materials for the construction of a replacement for the Tappan Zee Bridge, about a half-hour’s drive north of New York City. The boat, a 21-foot Stingray, had left the village of Piermont for a short trip across the river to Tarrytown, authorities said. Stewart, of Piermont, worked for an insurance company. She and Bond were set to be married Aug. 10, family members said. Bond, 35, was knocked unconscious in the crash but later woke and was able to call 911, Stewart’s mother, Carol Stewart-Kosik, said. Stewart’s stepfather, Walter Kosik, said the couple have known each other since they were young children and used to go to church together. “They have been friends the whole time, and they fell in love about 3½ years ago,” Kosik said. Barbera declined to identify the other people aboard the boat and had no information on their conditions. He said the barge was equipped with lights, but it was still difficult to see on the water late at night. The New York State Thruway Authority, which is overseeing the bridge project, said it was reviewing safety procedures. “Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families during this difficult time,” the authority said in a statement. It added that the lighting on the barges appeared to be functioning normally. Stewart’s former English teacher at Pearl River High School, who remained in contact with her through Facebook, called the accident “heartbreaking.” “She was one of my students and a bright, sweet girl loved by everyone,” said Doreen Arney. “I knew that she was getting married, and to Brian. To happen to two such special kids — it just shouldn’t happen.”
Stolen: Library a neighborhood hit Continued from Page A-1 the world. One group dubs them Little Free Libraries and has a website devoted to helping people set up and care for them. The group attributes the idea for the libraries to Lutie Stearn, a book pioneer who traveled through Wisconsin from 1895 to 1914 in a horse-drawn wagon bringing small libraries in boxes to rural communities. The website lists two other Little Free Libraries in New Mexico, one in Los Alamos and one in Tijeras. It took Lee six months to make her neighborhood’s mini-library. She looked at purchasing a ready-made little library online, but they cost several hundred dollars. Then one day at Habitat for Humanity ReStore, where the sale of construction materials benefits the nonprofit, the Lees found the perfect thing. It was a wood kitchen cabinet, with sturdy shelves on the doors and inside. She painted it bright blue, so it was easy to see. Wayne Lee set the minilibrary up in a corner of their yard on May 31. Alice Lee put a sign on it that said “Free Mini Library. Take a book, leave a book.” They stocked it with 50 children’s books, mysteries, biographies and other good reads. It was an immediate hit. Adults and children would pass by and peruse
the offerings. Books would disappear and reappear. New ones would show up on the shelves, dropped off by someone in the neighborhood. People walking or driving down the street would slow down to look. Some pulled up to the curb in their cars and would get out and look in the minilibrary. “It was used quite well,” Lee said. “It was really kind of magical.” Two weeks after it was opened to the neighborhood, the entire mini-library — cabinet, stand and books — disappeared in the middle of the night. “It was really sad,” Lee said, sitting in her wheelchair in her home recently. “I have no idea if they thought it was free and they could just take it. But why would they take it in the middle of the night?” Lee, who taught English in Beijing for two years while raising two daughters as a single mom, isn’t easily daunted. She plans to install another mini-library. But she has to figure out what it should be made out of and what to mount it on, so it won’t be stolen again.

Catholics hear call to shake up church
Pope criticizes Brazil’s church for ‘exodus’
By Michael Warren and Vivian Sequera
By Tracy Wilkinson Los Angeles Times
The Associated Press
RIO DE JANEIRO — In the thick of his historic visit to Brazil this week, Pope Francis urged young Catholics to make a “mess” in their dioceses and break out of their spiritual cages. Francis’ exhortation during a special meeting with Argentine faithful on Thursday won him acclaim as a renegade leader of the world’s biggest church. But it also left many of his followers with their own interpretations of the pontiff’s words about the need to shake up the church. Some said they thought Francis wanted them to object more forcefully when taught ideas that clash with church doctrine. Others said it meant hitting the streets and pushing for social change. “If in my biology class they speak about abortion, I should raise my hand and say I don’t believe in that,” said Maria Alejandrina de Dicindio, a 54-yearold Argentine catechism teacher who had traveled to Rio to see her pope, a fellow Argentine. “The youth should open their mouths when it’s their turn.” For Mexican pilgrim Gilberto Amado Hernandez, the pope’s message meant he should start showing the world Jesus Christ’s message of love. “It’s difficult to meet young people who want to get close to Christ,” Amado said. “We have to show them that faith is something beautiful.” Francis himself didn’t specify what to do, but he has displayed his own mold-breaking ways throughout this week’s visit to Rio de Janeiro and rural Sao Paulo state, his first overseas trip as pope. The first pontiff from the Americas worried security officials by riding through massive crowds atop an opensided popemobile rather than the fully enclosed, bulletproof vehicle his last two predeces-

sors used. He’s also ventured straight up to well-wishers to kiss babies and bless children and met privately Friday with juvenile offenders. While speaking to his fellow Argentines on Thursday, Francis said Catholics should make a concerted effort to get outside their own worlds. “I want to see the church get closer to the people,” he told them. “I want to get rid of clericalism, the mundane, this closing ourselves off within ourselves, in our parishes, schools or structures, because these need to get out.” His final message: “Don’t forget: Make trouble.” In his own way, he lived those words as the archbishop of Buenos Aires, Argentina, before being selected as pope in March. Then known as Jorge Mario Bergoglio, the future pope largely abandoned the kinds
of luxuries favored by other high-ranking church officials. He rented out the archbishop’s luxurious suburban mansion, living instead in a spartan room in a downtown church office building. He also rode subways and buses around town rather than keep a chauffeur. Francis’ visit to a Rio slum on Thursday wasn’t his first such venture. He made regular unescorted trips to dangerous slums as archbishop and saw to it that every major “misery village” in Buenos Aires had a chapel and a priest to spread the Lord’s word. He also encouraged young people and the laity to take on leadership roles in parishes that were previously held by priests, so that church members would have much more say in what happens in their communities. Though the Catholic Church openly supported Argentina’s
1976-1983 dictatorship, Francis later approved sainthood investigations for priests who were killed by the military government. Yet biographer Sergio Rubin said Francis the archbishop also had a very keen sense of politics and took care to act prudently, choosing his battles and avoiding challenging superiors in ways that would backfire. He wasn’t so gleeful and devoted to the crowd, seemingly mindful that he didn’t yet have the power to make a big splash in the church, according to an Argentine Catholic official who asked not to be identified because he wasn’t authorized to talk publicly about church politics.
RIO DE JANEIRO — Pope Francis on Saturday issued what the Vatican said was one of the most important speeches of his papacy, taking to task the Roman Catholic Church in Brazil for hemorrhaging droves of followers to other faiths or to apathy. Speaking in frank terms to bishops from around the country, Francis blamed the “exodus” on a long list of failings by the church and leaders sometimes caught up by intellectualisms or overly rigid rules — a church “too distant … too cold.” “Are we still a church capable of warming hearts?” the pope said. “We need a church capable of walking at people’s side, of doing more than simply listening to them,” he said. The Catholic Church in Brazil has lost several million followers, especially to Protestant evangelical churches that provide services in jails and slums, known as favelas, and often attract new followers with folksy promises of prosperity and other benefits. The pope’s speech over lunch repeated a theme he addressed earlier in the day, and several times during his week in Brazil — that priests and Catholic leaders had to “shake up” their institutions and “get out into the streets” to build the church. “It is not enough simply to open the door in welcome, but we must go out through that door to seek and meet the people,” he said. “Let us courageously look to pastoral needs, beginning on the outskirts, with those who are farthest away, with those who do not usually go to church. They too are invited to the table of the Lord.” Earlier Saturday, the pope seemed to endorse the message of Brazilian demonstrators who have filled the streets here in
recent weeks, urging government leaders to work to redress severe social inequities. But he also told young protesters to steer away from violence and toward “dialogue, dialogue, dialogue.” “The outcry, the call for justice, continues to be heard even today,” the pope told a gathering of senior Brazilian officials in the ornate Municipal Theater in Rio de Janeiro. Leadership and responsibility mean finding “the way to go to the heart of the evils of a society and to overcome them, also with the boldness of courageous and free actions,” Francis said. His message to members of Brazil’s elite leadership repeated themes of social justice and of reaching out to the poor, which have been the hallmark of his weeklong pilgrimage to the world’s largest Roman Catholic country. But, he suggested, sympathy for their causes did not give demonstrators carte blanche. On several occasions, police have used tear gas to break up demonstrations that did not target the pope specifically but did distract from his appearances. “Between selfish indifference and violent protest there is always another possible option: that of dialogue,” the pope said. “Dialogue between generations, dialogue with the people, the capacity to give and receive, while remaining open to the truth. A country grows when constructive dialogue occurs.” He chastised the “interplay of vested interests” that hold back democracy, an allusion to the old-style, deeply entrenched economic powers that continue to dominate Brazil, and much of Latin America, sometimes from behind the scenes. “When leaders in various fields ask me for advice, my response is always the same: dialogue, dialogue, dialogue,” he said.

tion for Open Government called upon the department to release the audit. Was the audit legitimate? Human Services says yes. Some critics say no. Public Consulting Group looked at 150 randomly selected billing claims from each provider as well as a year’s worth of casework document for selected patients. Eight of the providers who sued unsuccessfully to force the state to unfreeze their funds, point to similar work that Public Consulting Group did in North Carolina for that state’s Health and Human Services Department. North Carolina state Auditor Beth Wood wrote a scathing audit of that work, saying PCG’s overpayment figures were “unreliable.” One North Carolina provider that allegedly overcharged the state by more than $1.3 million actually had overcharged by less than 2 percent of that amount, Wood said. But federal judge Armijo, in her decision to deny the providers’ petition, wrote, “Although this evidence would be fodder for cross examination at trial, it is insufficient to establish that PCG’s New Mexico audit was unreliable.” Why were the providers defunded before the attorney general completes his investigation? This is required by federal Medicaid regulations, both the Human Services Department and the Attorney General’s Office say. Recently, Human Services released an email from Brian Cooke, media relations director for the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, that said his agency, based on “information currently available,” believes Human Services “acted in accordance with federal regulation and CMS guidance in imposing the temporary payment suspension.” But when questioned by The New Mexican recently, Cooke declined to say whether the state had no other choice but to immediately suspend the payments.
Federal regulations include several “good cause” exceptions that allow them to keep making some or all payments, including in situations where patients’ access to services would be jeopardized. In fact, another spokesman for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services previously had told New Mexico In Depth, “States do not have to suspend payments if they can show good cause for not doing so.” Questioned about the two statements from his office, Cooke declined to comment. He also declined to say whether a serious need in rural areas for behavioral health services could be considered “good cause” for an exception to the suspensions. After their funds were frozen, all 15 providers filed for “good cause” exceptions. All but three were denied, and two of the three only were granted partial funding. How much are the Arizona companies being paid? Agave Health Inc., doing business as Southwest Behavioral Health Services Inc., potentially is making the most money of the five. Its contract amount is up to $7.1 million. Of the others, La Frontera Inc. will be paid up to $4.75 million; and Southwest Network Inc., Lifewell Inc. and Valle del Sol Inc. will each be paid up to $2 million. What happens next? The Arizona companies will begin taking over management of the New Mexico providers. Chief Deputy Attorney General Al Lama said last week that he hopes that within two months his investigators will have enough information to determine whether there is evidence to proceed with actions against individual providers. The attorney general might be able to clear some of the companies by then, Lama said, and there might be cases in which individual providers could pay back overcharges without being prosecuted on criminal charges.

NSA’s target will keep moving and growing A
fter Edward Snowden blew the whistle on NSA’s universal surveillance of telephone calls and Internet communications, the president said that the government was not listening to our telephone calls. Unless — he did not say — they involve targeted individuals. These undoubtedly include anyone identified as a dissident, a protester, a member or supporter of the Occupy movement, or as an investigative journalist concerned with government wrongdoing. Such people have become our only protection against a fascist state, in which all opposition is silenced, and corporate and political rulers are free to do whatever they wish, lawlessly or not. Those who claim to be none of the above should think twice. This expanding police state will end up targeting and perhaps intimidating anyone contacted by targeted individuals. The list will widen to include everyone, indiscriminately, as a potential enemy of the state.

Vitter, etc. — but with the Weiner scandal, we’ve hit new lows. Candidates have always fooled around. We’re electing politicians after all, not popes. But the Weiner case doesn’t involve illicit affairs or even the pursuit of countless conquests the likes of Wilt Chamberlain once bragged about. It’s not about “access to excess” — something a friend of the dead rock star Jim Morrison once described — but something worse. Because Anthony Weiner’s exhibitionism morphs from the public into the private realms and — this is crucial — it makes the electorate somehow complicit in the whole sordid thing, acting as willing and unwilling enablers. Since the 1970s, the power of political parties has diminished. The smoke-filled rooms are things of the past, and maybe that’s good. But for all their faults, party bosses helped weed out unsavory characters. It’s hard to believe Anthony Weiner would have been picked as a party standard-bearer 40 years ago. For that matter, it’s hard to imagine someone such as Dwight Eisenhower subjecting himself to the sheer insanity of a modern-day presidential campaign. It’s worth noting that in 1952, from the date Ike declared his candidacy to the date of the election, the Eisenhower campaign lasted all of seven months. From Ike to Weiner. We’ve come a long way.

A grand garden The Santa Fe Botanical Garden opened the first phase of its garden on Museum Hill, and it was a success because of a number of dedicated volunteers. Even a downpour Friday could not put a damper on the gala that night. The water-catchment system designed to teach proper methods of water usage worked to perfection and created pools of water to benefit of the plants. The Grand Opening Committee accomplished an amazing feat of perfection over three days. Our staff worked tirelessly to ensure that our soldout gala, member day and free community day were welcoming to all. They deserve tremendous credit. We would not be where we are today without our very dedicated board of directors, landscape architect and his team. A new era has sprung — we have created a legacy for Santa Fe and one that will only grow in importance with each passing year. Many thanks to our donors who made this accomplishment possible — we can all be proud.

Railyard movies Because we continue to see references in The New Mexican, I’d like to correct the misinformation in an article (“Noise complaints force cops to stop Railyard movie,” June 25) regarding the shutdown of our Sound of Music screening in Railyard Park. The article reported numerous complaint calls to the police regarding the noise from the movie. There were in fact no noise complaints. There were numerous calls, but they were from people who were enjoying the movie and very disappointed not to be able to see it in its entirety. Our mistake was in booking a movie that ran significantly longer than our noise permit allowed. We will not make that mistake again and appreciate the police department’s promise in the future to continue to support our efforts to bring great, free programming to the people of Santa Fe. Many thanks to the Santa Feans who have written in support of our wonderful community events. Sandra Brice

The wrong agenda I would like to reference the time and energy President Barack Obama has spent supporting Trayvon Martin. First, he said if he had had a son he would look like Trayvon. Next, he stated he could have been Trayvon. Fat chance. This is a man of privilege. The closest he ever got to a ghetto was driving by one in his car. Instead of trying to heal the nation after the verdict, he has resorted to the same tactics of Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson. Next move, let’s sick the Justice Department on George Zimmerman. Amnesty: Recently in Austin, Texas, a 13-year-old girl was gang raped by two Mexican nationals, followed by 10 more who recorded it on cellphones. This is not an isolated incident, just one of many. It would be refreshing to have Obama stand up for this girl’s rights. Has he? No. Will he? No. It doesn’t fit his agenda. Clinton Coffman

Mental health: A state of turmoil
N
ew Mexico’s most vulnerable mental health patients are facing uncertain times. It began when Secretary Sidonie Squier of the Human Services Department announced that an audit of behavioral health services in New Mexico had uncovered $36 million in money alleged to have been misspent. She will not give the details — even to the 15 agencies accused of wrongdoing and possible criminal acts — because she believes it would interfere with the criminal investigations. The past and potential harm to taxpayers is so great, in her eyes, that Squier suspended Medicaid payments to all service providers. We support stopping fraud, but still believe that not all 15 providers should have received the same, onesize-fits all penalty. The potential for harm remains too great. Next, Attorney General Gary King was handed the audit; his department now must investigate and determine what, if any, criminal charges are to be filed. That investigation could take months. Meanwhile, state Auditor Hector Balderas has obtained a court order to get a copy of the audit; he says that under state law, he needs to see any waste, fraud or mismanagement found. The administration had ignored the court order, but Balderas has worked with the Attorney General’s Office to make an arrangement where he can see the audit but keep the details secret. Eight of the targeted agencies went to federal court, but the judge refused to immediately lift the state freeze on payments for mental health and substance abuse treatment. And so it goes. About the only thing New Mexicans know for sure is that oversight of care is being outsourced. Arizona contractors are being brought in to help manage services for some 30,000 mental health patients who depend on Medicaid. Patients and providers alike say they don’t understand what is happening. In Taos, 65 children receiving treatment have had care disrupted because one of the providers, Casa de Corazon felt it had to furlough staff once Medicaid payments were stopped. Other companies across the state also are furloughing staff because they cannot meet payroll. Patients who need counseling, access to behavioral therapy, drugs to treat their mental illness, wonder what will happen next. They could face loss of service, or simply the challenge of getting used to a new provider or interruptions in getting prescriptions. Uncertainty is no friend to anyone dealing with mental illness or substance abuse. Santa Fe-based TeamBuilders, which operates offices across New Mexico, has put the state on notice that it will no longer serve Medicaid patients. At the least, men, women and children who use TeamBuilders’ counselors or doctors could lose continuity in care. Without TeamBuilders, other providers are worried there will be no place to send patients. The administration says that transfer of management to the Arizona providers is underway, and promises there will be no interruption of care. The new management is going to cost $17.8 million, on top of the close to $1 billion that behavioral services manager OptumHealth already receives. That’s a lot of money spent on management. We trust the state is asking hard questions about why this alleged fraud was not discovered earlier. Already, New Mexico does a poor job of serving and helping citizens with mental health problems. This crisis will only exacerbate the situation. Don’t forget, too, that children who receive care are just a few weeks from the beginning of school. They could be without services, possibly without medicine, and back in the classroom with little support. That will affect not just children who need counseling, aides or pills, but teachers, staff and the other children in the classroom. Some welcome news from our sister paper, The Taos News, which spoke to one of the Arizona companies that will be managing care in New Mexico. Daniel Ranieri, CEO of Tucson-based La Frontera Center, doesn’t promise all will move smoothly — an honest assessment, from one person at least. He said he anticipated turbulent weeks ahead as the nonprofit takes over Southwest Counseling in Las Cruces. However, he said, “There should not be any change in the people that are providing the services. The folks receiving the care should not notice any difference.” That’s a wonderful reassurance. Now, the state, remaining providers and all who care about mental health must make that assurance a reality. The potential for damage is too great otherwise.
The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: July 28, 1913: The historic bandstand, which was yesterday hauled away from the Plaza to make way for the handsome new concrete structure soon to be erected in its place, has not been lost to Santa Fe. Although few realize it, the old bandstand was a historic structure, pictures of the Plaza in the ’50s showing the identical spit which made it a familiar figure to modern Santa Fe. It has been moved to the tip-top of Fort Marcy overlooking the city, where future concerts might be held. July 28, 1988: Washington — Seventy-five percent of Americans can’t locate the Persian Gulf on a map and 45 percent don’t know where Central America is, according to a survey released Wednesday. The United States ranked sixth among nine countries in the international study conducted this spring by the Gallup Organization and the National Geographic Society. Only the United Kingdom, Italy and Mexico scored lower. Americans in the 18-24 age group were outscored by their counterparts in all other countries and by all other U.S. age groups.
COMMENTARY: JOHN KASS
By George! Don’t be a hater R
oyal baby haters. They’re out there. They’re everywhere. And with the birth of the beautiful royal baby boy in England the last week to the lovely Kate Middleton and her husband, Prince William, a horde of royal baby haters have been revealed, venting their anti-royalist spleens. “I don’t hate the royal baby,” said a fellow of Irish extraction with the middle names Thomas Aquinas Francis Xavier. “Not the baby. The baby’s fine. It’s the royal part I don’t like.” Ah, but you can’t pick and choose and make complicated arguments about kings and democracy. You must take a side. Either you’re with the royal baby or you’re against him. I’m with him. And if you’re not with me, you’re against me, and therefore a hater and perhaps even stupid. That’s how we roll in the American media. The hustler Al Sharpton is against the royal baby. He mocked the child on the official anti-royal baby news network, MSNBC. Sharpton went so far as to offer the little prince a onesie emblazoned with the logo of his television show. Then he held up a blueberry pie. “We hope he wears this as he’s watching us,” Sharpton said. “And I have a blueberry pie for his parents.” Why a pie? And why blueberry? Is the House of Windsor particularly fond of blueberries? A Russian politician also got involved, predicting that the royal baby will grow to amass great power and eventually suck their blood sometime around the year 2050. That’s right, suck their blood. This wild claim was likely abetted by the British papers mentioning that one of
the child’s ancestors is Vlad the Impaler, the legendary warrior who was the foundation of the Dracula vampire myth. Now, I confess, I was something of a royal baby hater myself and I asked this question on Facebook: What’s worse? Sushi Mondays or the royal baby? But I’ve evolved. My wife, Betty, cured me. “I’m telling you this,” she said, as if issuing a proclamation. “Do not mock that baby. And do not mock Kate Middleton, either.” I won’t, honey. I promise. There’s nothing more zealous than a royal baby convert. That’s why I’m so livid about those hateful tweets. There are others much too vulgar to mention here. Yet in the face of all this sordid evidence, there are those who still insist on pretending there isn’t any royal baby hating going on. Denials of royal baby hating are not only insulting, they feed the animus. And we royal baby story lovers don’t like it. “I’m not some royal baby hater,” insisted a guy outside Tribune Tower. “Really, I’m not.” In the passive-aggressive manner of most royal baby haters, he tried to explain it with obscure phrases nobody in America really understands, phrases like “the Republic” and “democracy” and “the Declaration of Independence” and “the Constitution.” “The never-ending news coverage is making me sick,” said the guy. “Aren’t we past the time of kings? We’re Americans, we’re about democracy, we don’t believe in divine right of kings. And then all the gushing coverage, royal baby this, royal baby that, royal baby, royal baby! And what name will they give the royal baby? It’s driving me crazy.” I stared at him and said nothing.
“What?” he said. “What?” Man, you sound just like some royal baby hater. Stop hating on that little royal baby, dude. “I just told you! It’s more complicated,” he said. “You just can’t lump me in with the irrational royal baby haters.” Ah, but of course I will lump you in with them. That’s the beauty of the media. We have our own magic trick. It’s called the royal baby straw man. I will simply take your nuanced arguments about democracy and divine rights and “the Republic” and other smart-aleck stuff like “the Constitution” and lump them right in there with all the stupid, wacky royal baby hater spewings from the Russians and those ugly tweets. Then guess what happens? Your nuance disappears and you’re pinned like an insect. And if you open your mouth to defend yourself, well, you’ll sound just like that other bitter royal baby hater, the Russian Labor Party leader and wacko, Vladimir Zhirinovsky. “That British monarchy … destroyed our state,” Zhirinovsky insisted to the state-run news agency RIA Novosti. “That is why the birth of another British monarch, who will suck our blood somewhere in the mid-21st century, cannot bring us any kind of happiness.” Well, the child has brought happiness to many others, including England, the British tourism industry and Mrs. Kass. So smile, royal baby. Don’t listen to the haters. Be a good son. Be a good king. John Kass is a columnist for the Chicago Tribune. Readers may send him email at jskasstribune.com.

COMMENTARY: WITOLD RYBCZYNSKI
Shrink bankrupt Detroit to save it
I
t’s hardly helpful to a bankrupt Detroit to say, “I told you so,” but I did tell you so. In the October 1995 issue of the Atlantic, I suggested that large Rust Belt cities such as Detroit, whose populations had declined drastically during the postwar era, needed to consider planned shrinkage. This might sound like a declaration of defeat. Yet as I wrote, “Downsizing has affected private institutions, public agencies and the military, as well as businesses. Why not cities?” When a city loses population, it loses residents but keeps the same amount of infrastructure. The same streets must be policed and maintained, the same streetlights repaired, the same water and sewer systems operated, the same transit systems run. It is like an (impoverished) elderly couple having to keep up a large house after all the kids have grown up and moved out. This imbalance has several deleterious effects. Because the city has fewer taxpayers, the quality of its municipal services goes down. For example, police response time to 911 calls in Detroit is currently said to be 58 minutes. It expends scarce resources on nonproductive uses; Philadelphia pays $20 million a year just to maintain 40,000 vacant properties. Moreover, because urban vitality depends on density, without an adequate concentration of people, corner stores close, streets become empty — and dangerous — and abandoned buildings become haunts for criminal activities. According to a 1973 study by the Department of Housing and
Editorial page editor: Inez Russell Gomez, 986-3053, igomez@sfnewmexican.com, Twitter @inezrussell
Urban Development, the tipping point in a community occurs when only 3 percent to 6 percent of properties are blighted; many neighborhoods of shrinking cities passed that point decades ago. A few cities such as New York and Washington have reversed their earlier population losses. Others, such as Boston, are smaller than they used to be but have developed a solid economic base. Cities that are unlikely to get bigger or richer have two options. The first is consolidation. Residents of underpopulated areas are encouraged to relocate to other parts of the city, these neighborhoods are reinforced, and the abandoned areas are essentially mothballed, with all municipal services cut off. The second option, even more drastic, is divestiture. Historically, cities have grown by annexing neighboring communities. They could shrink by doing the opposite: selling off land in large tracts to private developers who would be responsible for providing their own municipal services (as they do in the suburbs) without the burden of city taxes and bureaucracy. Cities wouldn’t gain taxpayers, but they would divest themselves of unproductive land, and at the same time, people and economic activities would be attracted back into the urban vicinity. Although no cities have attempted divestiture — the political, social and legal obstacles are simply too great — in the last decade, some cities have begun to consider planned shrinkage. Flint, Mich., and Youngstown, Ohio, have adopted strategies
to encourage downsizing. In 2010, Detroit Mayor Dave Bing announced an ambitious consolidation plan that would raze or recycle about a third of the city. Residents of depopulated neighborhoods would be encouraged — not forced — to move so that streets and buildings could be demolished and services disconnected. Now that Detroit has declared bankruptcy, consolidation will probably be put on the back burner. That would be a mistake. The need for downsizing is, if anything, more urgent, else the depopulated third of the city act as a millstone, hobbling efforts at recovery. The best outcome in Detroit would be if the shock of bankruptcy brought the various interests in the city together. Consolidation could be a part of the court-mandated restructuring process. Experience has shown that voluntary displacement of residents is unlikely to succeed, and some version of eminent domain with regard to nonviable neighborhoods is required. “Does this sound heartless?” I asked 18 years ago. “Surely it is less so than the current Polyannaish pretense of providing services to many poor and depopulated neighborhoods, which are occasionally half revived with community development projects and then left on their own to decay even further.” Shrinkage is a lot tougher than growth, and Detroit has no other realistic option. Witold Rybczynski, an emeritus professor at the University of Pennsylvania, wrote this for Bloomberg News.

Hello, Verizon, this is Chama Valley calling I
f you were fishing out on Heron Lake on June 23 and you tried to use your Verizon cellphone to contact the state park headquarters, you’d have no service. If you were camping at El Vado State Park and had a medical emergency, your Verizon phone wouldn’t work even though you’d called home the night before. If you were having a great weekend at your cabin in the Brazos Canyon and your daughter wanted to call her boyfriend back in Albuquerque, her Verizon cell wouldn’t work (it certainly did the night before … for hours). That morning, without any warning, people all over the upper Chama River Valley woke up to little or no Verizon cellphone service. Up here, such an event might be a bit more serious than, say, in Albuquerque. You see, a few years ago when Verizon moved into
the Valley, many people gave up their land lines so they could have the convenience (and safety) of a phone wherever they went in the countryside. Additionally, Verizon gave country folks computer connections they never had before. Businesses all over the valley converted to Verizon products. Now, most are reporting lost revenue because of the lack of service. Government agencies — local, state and even federal — had unanticipated problems. Luckily, the local fire departments kept up their radio networks, complete with dispatchers. However, fire chiefs such as Laguna Vista’s Bill Hunt and Tierra Amarilla’s Justiniano Valdez, still expressed concern. They are, quite naturally, worried over people’s inability to report both house fires and wildfires (one of my neighbors tried to report a wildfire that Sunday morning, but his Verizon cell wouldn’t work).
As you might expect, people with medical issues are finding themselves at risk. One 87-year-old lady in our neighborhood is worried because she is caretaker to her 64-year-old disabled son. She bought into Verizon so that they would be more secure when venturing out of the house either on foot or by car. How could such a far-reaching catastrophe occur in this day and age? Wednesday evening, the Chama Valley Chamber of Commerce, in coordination with New Mexico Public Regulation Commissioner Valerie Espinoza, invited Verizon to a public hearing. Maybe a hundred people showed up to see if they could get answers. Verizon sent four representatives, one of whom was Michael Bagley, executive director of public policy all the way from Irvine, Calif. Clearly Verizon was taking our meeting seriously. Unfor-
tunately, the two dozen people who asked questions got no answers. Most people in the audience already knew what went wrong. Back in 2009, Verizon completed a deal to buy out Alltel (which happened to be our local cell service). The Federal Communications Commission in Washington approved the buyout so long as Verizon divested itself of about 100 mostly rural Alltel markets around the country. Verizon then put our Chama Valley Alltel and many others up for sale. AT&T responded by buying 79 of these networks, including ours. However, as part of the agreement, Verizon received rights to use AT&T’s tower in the Valley for the customers it expected to acquire in our area. For three years, Verizon did next to nothing to avert the inevitable collapse of its network. Instead, it sold hundreds of people contracts, cellphones and
computer access, knowing full well that everything would crash at the end of June 2013. And it did. When the Verizon representatives were asked whether people would be compensated for lack of service, they were told cases would be handled separately. However, customers aren’t alone. The Public Regulation Commission says it is on our side, as is the attorney general’s Consumer Protection Division (Rebecca Branch, deputy director of the Consumer Protection Division, drove all the way from Albuquerque to attend). What happened Wednesday night at Chama’s Community Center? The people of the Chama Valley called Verizon, and all we got was a busy signal. Giles Pennington is a concerned Chama Valley resident.

Benefits of urban farms
T
here has been a lot of recent buzz related to farming in metro areas. While there always are multiple aspects to consider, making the most of urban farms and gardens provides the opportunity to bring together a broad spectrum of fields — including health, urban planning, transportation, education, environment, food and sustainable agriculture, and economic development — in creating healthy communities. As a nonprofit organization devoted to promoting locally based agriculture, Farm to Table’s programs strive for equity in our food system. As such, we consider city-based farms and gardens exceptional venues in reducing the disconnect that happens when the only food consumed is store-bought. Regardless of income level, urban farms and gardens enhance our quality of life. They can improve community nutrition and physical activity, maintain
cultural traditions and help enhance food security by providing opportunities for community-members from all incomelevels to grow or purchase local fresh produce. Low-income communities, where fresh produce is often hard to find and expensive, greatly benefit by having nearby urban farms and gardens that provide access to healthy options, which otherwise are not available. As an entrepreneurship venture, urban farming can be an economic development option that, while requiring regulation to ensure multizone neighborhoods work well together, has benefits that surpass a routine business transaction. Beyond increasing the accessibility of local fresh produce, urban farms and gardens build local leadership, have the involvement of volunteers and community partners, and include skill-and-awareness-building opportunities for community members of all ages and interests.
Likewise, Farm to Table supports engaging children in gardens and agricultural-related activities that help develop the understanding of the interdependence of all living things. Many educational goals can be addressed through gardens, including personal and social responsibility, such as how to be a good neighbor and how to care for a livable environment. Gardens and agriculture integrate several subjects, such as science, math, art, health and physical education, with social studies, storytelling, creativity, visioning and play. We hope Santa Feans share Farm to Table’s support of urban farming and gardens, and, as such, embrace livable spaces that add options and access to healthy foods in our community. Visit us at www.farmtotablenm.org to learn about all of our programs. Nelsy Dominguez is the deputy director of Farm to Table.

Time for county to approve development code
T
he League of Women Voters of Santa Fe County has commended the county for its work to develop a strong Sustainable Land Development Code that is true to the approved Sustainable Growth Management Plan. The league has frequently weighed in on the need for a strong plan to manage growth, to plan for water supply limits, to maintain open spaces and affordable housing, to encourage energy conservation and other issues. We have opposed efforts to weaken the plan and we have commented on the need to approve and implement the complete code in a timely manner, given the urgency of our needs and the length of time elapsed since the growth management was approved. We continue to have concerns about the following aspects of the code and its approval process. First, the league urges the Board of County Commissioners to create and publish a schedule for the timely approval of the land development code. There have already been several lengthy review and community input periods. The last round
of public comments on the draft, including comments from the league, were submitted several months ago, but we have yet to see a revised draft of the code. The county commissioners appear to be considering a vote Chris in December, 3½ years Furlanetto after approval of the growth management plan. The league has repeatedly urged final approval in this calendar year; we again ask the commission to act expeditiously to pass a comprehensive sustainable code that will fully implement the approved growth management plan. Second, we wish to emphasize our support for the assessment of developer-paid impact fees adequate to cover the costs of new infrastructure needed by new developments. Removing this requirement from the code would shift the burden of the infrastructure costs to county taxpayers when these costs should be
the responsibility of the developers who stand to profit from the new development. We therefore urge commissioners to require that developers fund any new infrastructure required for their proposed development projects. Third, we wish to emphasize again the need to include the strong energy efficiency building standards, as drafted, in the final code. County staff developed an excellent plan for reduced energy consumption and sustainability that is grounded in thorough cost-benefit analyses; the league urges county commissioners to include the standards as proposed in the final code. These proposed building standards that reduce energy consumption, particularly consumption of fossil fuels, will reward residents with reduced energy bills; such requirements are necessary as we face record high temperatures and drought, both symptoms of climate disruption. Chris Furlanetto is the vice president and action and advocacy chair for the League of Women Voters of Santa Fe County.
hirteen years since the initial legislation assigned management of the Valles Caldera Preserve to the Valles Caldera Trust, issues over that management continue. Sens. Tom Udall and Martin Heinrich introduced Senate Bill 285 on Feb. 2 to transfer the management of the Caldera Preserve to the National Park Service. This new legislation follows an earlier bill, SB 3452, introduced by Sen. Jeff Bingaman in 2010. That bill did not go anywhere, which may be the fate of the latest bill. All of this is interesting, given the fact that both Sen. Bingaman and thenRep. Udall were in Congress in 2000, when the legislation to designate the Valles Caldera National Preserve was enacted. National Park Service interest in managing the Valles Caldera is long-standing. As far as I can remember from my Bandelier days, the Caldera’s owners had always known of the interest of the National Park Service to manage their property should they decide to sell it, something I still support. Nonetheless, I strongly believe that the abolishment of the Southwest Region and its Santa Fe Regional Office in 1995 was the reason the Valles Caldera was not assigned to the National Park Service. The absence of the local regional office created an interest void that was never replaced by the new regional office in Denver. I would courteously suggest that if our good senators want to help the Caldera operation, they should lobby for the restoration of the Southwest Region and its Santa Fe office. Among an array of other benefits, a full complement of National Park Service professionals in the Santa Fe office would assure that the Caldera has the management it deserves. As for the ongoing management of the Caldera operation, I have been impressed by the work being done by the Caldera Trust’s professional staff. They have recently released an impressive 258-page document titled, “2012 State of the Valles Caldera National Pre-
serve.” I would recommend its reading to those detractors who believe that the Caldera is being mismanaged. The trust also has produced a Strategic Management Plan for the years 2012-18, two years before its trust terminates. If the Caldera Trust will self-destruct in 2020, that would be the time to transfer its operation to the National Park Service, permitting the Trust to continue with its planned operation for the next seven years, on its nickel, and with close oversight and assistance from the National Park Service. As for the current SB 285, I would suggest a further review of its provisions before it is finalized and enacted. For one, it does not include a section on findings and purposes that point out the significance of why the Caldera is deemed eligible for designation as a unit of the National Park Service and which are needed to guide its management. The Caldera Trust legislation of 2000 listed 13 findings and five purposes. Nine of the findings concern the Baca Ranch. While one knows that SB 285 is meant to replace the current management of the Caldera, it simply states that its purpose is to repeal the Valles Caldera Preservation Act and “to designate the Valles Caldera National Preserve as a unit of the National Park Service.” Perhaps the bill’s purpose should note why the Preservation Act is being repealed. That alone would be instructive. Section 3 of SB 285, “management coordination,” also is worth noting, “The Secretary of Interior may coordinate the management and operation of the Preserve with the Bandelier National Monument.” The proposed Manhattan sites legislation also contains a similar provision. That makes one wonder what Congress thinks the Bandelier staff does that it has time to coordinate the management and operation of those two areas.

MY VIEW: MARY McFADIN
Behavioral health allegations don’t add up T
he Santa Fe New Mexican has had almost daily stories over the last week or two concerning the allegations of Medicaid fraud against 15 behavioral health providers in New Mexico. I have been amazed at the accuracy and attention to important details of much of the reporting on this subject. I have been horrified at the obvious miscarriage of justice that can be deduced. It is disconcerting, to say the least, to know that Medicaid funding was immediately discontinued for behavioral health programs of the 15 providers without so much as an investigation to determine whether
there is genuine fraud or if there have been correctable errors. Admittedly, it would be difficult to have millions of dollars in “errors,” but why make the kids getting the services and the staff serving them suffer the injustice of having the funds cut off without due justice first? How long is it going to take to get the Arizona takeover companies to get their required accreditation in New Mexico? How will this affect the youth who were on track with improvement and on their way to being upstanding, taxpaying citizens? If they get off track, what happens then? Anyone who works in the
behavioral health field knows that it is difficult to operate within the slim Medicaid budget and meet other obligations, such as regulations and licensing standards. Many of the 15 providers just don’t have the financial reserves to continue behavioral health services without funding. At Easter Seals El Mirador/Casa De Corazon, we have been trying to maintain a support system for the at-risk youth in the program without adequate funds. It is also very frustrating to have someone like Department of Human Services Secretary Sidonie Squier publicly call us “crooks” without an investigation and what we Americans
ico for 10 years, any type of dishonesty or fraud is going to become apparent to me, sooner or later, wherever I work. It would be funny, if it weren’t so sad, to hear someone calling Johnson or Patsy Romero, chief operations officer, a crook. From day one, we have been hearing the same words over and over again from Johnson, admonishing everyone that there is “zero tolerance” for tweaking any numbers. Romero is right there with the same mantra all the time. Being present in day-to-day operations, attending meetings, meetings, meetings, all the time, I can’t see where Medicaid fraud
rely on: justice and a fair trial. For more than 30 years, Mark Johnson has been executive director/CEO at our organization that provides services for developmentally disabled individuals 18 years and older. A few years ago, Casa De Corazon merged with us and behavioral health services for youth were included in the Easter Seals El Mirador program. Johnson has been my direct boss since 2005. For five years of my nearly 10 years here, I was administrator of general operations. My previous career was as an insurance investigator. As a licensed private investigator for 14 years in another state and one licensed in New Mex-
could possible be perpetrated at Easter Seals El Mirador. As an old investigator, I ask myself who is it who is really “on the take” in this scenario. It certainly isn’t an honest provider like Easter Seals El Mirador. As a Christian, I see a “David and Goliath” situation going down and I wonder who is this Goliath that Squier and maybe even Gov. Susana Martinez are answering to? I pray that Johnson and Romero have enough stones to overcome this Goliath. As devout Catholics, they certainly have the souls to try. Mary McFadin is executive assistant to the CEO at Easter Seals El Mirador.
MY VIEW: SIDONIE SQUIER
We must protect services P roviding behavioral health care services to New Mexicans is an important responsibility, and it’s critical that the funding used to provide these services be spent properly. This administration has kept its word to protect those most in need by not tolerating fraud, waste or abuse of Medicaid funds. That’s why it’s so concerning that an in-depth audit, commissioned by the Human Services Department of 15 behavioral health care agencies in New Mexico, revealed an estimated $36 million in improper payments: fake billing, potential shell companies and CEOs improperly getting rich off Medicaid funds. This money was supposed to pay for treatment for low-income New Mexicans but was instead misspent. In some cases, services were overbilled, and in others, funds were paid out for services that never should have been billed. Looking strictly at the most egregious payment errors, the audit indicates that New Mexicans in need of behavioral health care services were greatly shortchanged by the companies tasked with managing this funding. During this investigatory period, Medicaid funding will continue to be provided to New Mexico clients through an alternative source. We are not cutting behavioral health care services to New Mexicans who rely on them, nor are we cutting funding for those services. Patients in need of treatment can and should continue to see their therapists and other providers, just as they always have. That patient/ therapist relationship does not change. But if the federal government believes New Mexico is not protecting Medicaid dollars or services, it can stop all of our Medicaid funding. Whether the result of gross mismanagement of public money or more deliberate efforts to misuse funding by managers at these companies, two things are clear: The money must be repaid so that it can be spent properly on behavioral health care services, and the allegations in the audit must be investigated by law enforcement authorities to determine the extent of any potential fraud committed. It is our responsibility to turn the audit findings over to law enforcement authorities, and that is what we’ve done. The audit has been provided to the attorney general, the U.S. attorney and the FBI. The law provides for the continued withholding of funding from Medicaid agencies once a law enforcement agency charged with investigating Medicaid fraud accepts a case for investigation. The agencies can then appeal those suspensions and ask for good cause exceptions, which have been granted in whole or in part in three cases. A federal judge upheld the actions of Human Services in withholding these Medicaid funds while the

AG completes his investigation. We believe the public has a right to see this information, but we also respect Sidonie the need for Squier law enforcement to conclude investigations and make final prosecutorial decisions. The Attorney General’s Office has stated repeatedly — to the Legislature, to the state auditor and to our office — that releasing it would jeopardize the investigation. The attorney general and the state auditor have worked out a resolution so the auditor can view the audit without jeopardizing the investigation. We fully support this agreement. Given the number of New Mexicans who rely on our behavioral health services, I feel it’s important to put the audit results into perspective. The $36 million could provide all of these services combined: 2,500 adults
could have intensive outpatient services for substance abuse for 30 days; more than 5,000 individuals could receive outpatient mental health services for 20 hours each; up to 1,500 children could be provided shelter for 30 days after being dislodged from their home setting; 4,500 individuals could receive methadone maintenance for opioid treatment with 60 days of refill; and 3,500 individuals could be provided inpatient psychiatric hospitalization for 10 days. Providing behavioral health services to low-income New Mexicans is a priority we take seriously. And it is critical to ensure that any funding being used to provide these services be properly spent, in accordance with the law, and for the intended purpose — helping to treat those in our communities who suffer from drug and alcohol addiction, mental health afflictions and a large array of other behavioral health issues.

Plastic bags aren’t the problem here
Bag ban makes sense for Santa Fe
W
T
The making of paper as an alternative can waste many thousands of gallons of water, as can its recycling. Plastic is, by Susan comparison, Odiseos efficient and low-energy to produce, and easily and efficiently recycled. After contrasting the efforts behind the making of paper and plastic, plastic is considered to be less harmful. It costs 1 cent to produce a standard plastic grocery bag, whereas a paper bag costs 4 cents. Is this the time to allow increased costs to harm the economy? According to all studies, paper bags are responsible for many times the pollution and oil consumption of plastic bags. Paper is heavier, not as durable as plastic and requires far more resources to create, but results in considerably more air and water pollution. While it is best for shoppers to bring their own shopping bags, if people forget to bring reusable bags to the store or cannot afford them, they must choose from available options.

Google Maps returns for iPhone, and it boasts big improvements By Bree Fowler
The Associated Press
L
ike a lot of people, I was happy and relieved to see Google Maps return to the iPhone. I’d been frustrated with the Apple mapping software that had replaced it three months ago. For one thing, it didn’t have public transit directions, a feature important for New Yorkers like me. Apple’s mapping app also wasn’t as good as the old Google app in finding destinations. I often had to type full addresses rather than just the name of a business. I tried to get by with maps on Google’s mobile website instead, but I found that clunky and slower to start up. So when Google Maps returned this week as its own app, I installed it right away. Although it may not be perfect, it is a big step up from both Apple’s current software and the old Google-powered Maps app that Apple kicked off the iPhone in September. For the first time, Google Maps has turn-by-turn voice navigation on the iPhone, and with that, automatic recalculation of routes whenever you make a wrong turn. The feature had been available on Android phones since 2009, but Google’s previous refusal to bring it to the iPhone is believed to be a key reason Apple decided to develop its own technology. The new app also offers public transit information for more than 500 cities around the world. That’s a feature Apple’s own mapping software lacks. The turn-by-turn driving directions work exceptionally well. It quickly and accurately calculated the most direct route from The Associated Press’ headquarters in Manhattan to my home in the Bronx. It offered a variety of routes for traveling from New York to Boston. The app’s voice directions came in the form of a pleasant female voice that sounded much more human than the GPS system my husband had in his car years ago. She was also more pleasant to
The world’s most popular online mapping system returned to Apple with the release of the Google Maps iPhone app. The release comes nearly three months after Apple Inc. replaced Google Maps as the device’s built-in navigation system and inserted its own map software into the latest version of its mobile operating system.

The video game universe in 2012 is a study in extremes. At one end, you have the old guard striving to produce mass-appeal blockbusters. At the other end, you have a thriving community of independent game developers scrambling to find an audience for their idiosyncratic visions. Can’t we all just get along? Turns out, we can. For while some industry leaders are worried (and not without cause) about “disruptive” trends — social-media games, free-to-play models, the switch from disc-based media to digital delivery — video games are blossoming creatively. This fall, during the height of the pre-holiday game release calendar, I found myself bouncing among games as diverse as the bombastic Halo 4, the artsy The Unfinished Swan and the quick-hit trivia game SongPop. Some of my favorite games this year have benefited from both sides working together. The smaller studios get exposure on huge platforms like Xbox Live or the PlayStation Network. The big publishers seem more willing to invite a little quirkiness into their big-budget behemoths. Gamers win. 1.

plastic bags narrows the choices to the use of paper bags or buying a reusable one. A ban hinders people from exercising their free will to choose their preferred option, and paper bags offer limited options for reuse. In 2008, when San Francisco banned plastic bags, it was expected that there would be a huge drop in bag use and an increase in reusable bags. Actually, there was not a huge shift toward reusable bags; there was, instead, a huge increase in paper bag consumption. Health issues from bacteria have arisen from reusable bags that are not washed regularly; studies show they are not being washed. Plastic grocery bags are some of the most reused items in the house. They are reused for tasks where they offer the cleanest solution — for trash can liners, picking up after pets, for wet garbage, etc. — allowing for sanitary disposal that would otherwise breed bacteria. It is my hope that, as a community, we can work together to address environmental issues in a sensible, nonsensational manner.
hank you to Mayor David Coss and City Councilors Rebecca Wurzburger and Chris Rivera for proposing to end distribution of single-use plastic grocery bags in Santa Fe. Dropping the distribution of these bags in Santa Fe is both beneficial and sustainable. About 380 billion bags are used each year in the United States. That adds up to more than 1,200 bags per person. An estimated 12 million barrels of oil are required to make that many bags. Sadly, only 1 percent to 2 percent are recycled. It is more sustainable to leave the fossil fuel in the ground. Single-use plastic bags clog the digestive systems and kill
animals, birds and fish. They also release toxins into soil, water and air. They never disintegrate; they just become Jessie smaller and Emerson smaller until they are microscopic. Plastic bags clogged the sewer system of Bangladesh, causing massive flooding, destroying property and causing many deaths. In 2001, Bangladesh became the first nation to ban plastic bags. When plastic bags are incinerated with organic material, they produce a highly toxic substance, dioxin. Studies have
shown that it has its greatest impact on the growth and development of children. Dioxin has been associated with IQ defects and both withdrawn and hyper behavior. Dioxin also is known to cause cancer and is a known endocrine disruptor. We can protect ourselves, our children and their children by protecting and cleaning our environment now. One way to achieve this goal is by supporting and implementing a ban on single-use plastic bags.

hile banning plastic bags may, on the surface, appear to be a good step toward protecting the environment, the facts do not bear this out. I am a confessed convert from previously believing plastic bags were the enemy of the environment. The intentions of those promoting a ban are good, but the unintended consequences are not. The all-volunteer, low-budget Food for Santa Fe distributes 900 bags of groceries in paper bags to hungry families every Thursday. A ban on plastic bags and a charge for paper sacks that are currently recycled by Santa Feans and given to us could be devastating to our operations. My research from reputable sources has yielded the following: It’s a myth that banning plastic bags or charging for paper grocery bags will reduce greenhouse gases and save the planet. In fact, because bags are a minimal contributor to all the problems associated with them — oil use, litter, landfill volume, etc. — bans and charges simply won’t help the environment. And because the alternatives all require more fuel to create, recycle and transport, eliminating plastic bags actually increases greenhouse gases. Banning plastic will fail to solve the problem. Irresponsible ways of disposing of plastic — and other waste — are to blame, not plastic. We are the problem; we can be the solution! Public education for responsible use, recycling and disposal of all materials and products is the key to reducing litter. Santa Fe — city and county — can and should facilitate the means for recycling plastic bags.

On Medicare’s 48th birthday, a wish to provide coverage for all
O
n Tuesday, Medicare will be 48 years old. It covers more than 50 million Americans — those older than 65 and the disabled. It has improved financial security for the elderly and disabled and reduced health disparities related to race and socioeconomic status. Medicare recipients go to the doctor and the hospital of their choice, not to a restricted panel of caregivers. Medicare operates on an overhead of about 2 percent, compared with private insurers’ overheads from 12 percent to more than 20 percent. Medicare does have its flaws: It doesn’t cover vision or hearing problems, and the drug program (Part D) has the congressional restriction that it cannot negotiate with drug manufacturers over medication costs, the way Veterans Affairs can. That’s why the VA spends 40 percent less for the same drugs. An improved Medicare for all would make terrific sense. Low overhead, a single set of approved forms (not a separate one for each insurer, as is now the case), no outrageous CEO salaries, no marketing costs, firstdollar coverage without copayments or deductibles, no restrictions on choice of doctor or hospital. All medically approved
tests and treatments would be covered, and there would be no issue of physicians refusing to see certain patients because of Laurence poorly payS. Jacobs ing insurance. Funding, from progressive taxes, would cost individuals less than they now pay in premium, copay, deductible and out-of-pocket expenses. Finally, Medicare, as the only payer, would be able to negotiate robustly over prices of drugs, medical devices and hospital bills. Medicare recipients are happier with their health insurance, have fewer problems with access to care and delays in payment, and are more likely to have a primary care provider who knows them well than are people with private health insurance. Severe illness has extraordinary consequences in the U.S. Some 62 percent of personal bankruptcies are largely due to medical expenses, and threequarters of those bankrupted had health insurance prior to their illness. Those policies, however, did not offer financial protection, which is one of the main pur-

poses of insurance. Many lowincome people go without insurance because of its high cost. The consequences are awful; it’s been estimated that approximately 45,000 people die in the U.S. annually because of lack of insurance, associated with delay or deferral of needed care. An improved Medicare for all would eliminate these consequences. So why don’t we have Medicare for all? Because insurers, drug companies and entrenched interests lobby intensely to preserve their profits, and because ideologues lie about government intrusion into health care. Actually, it’s the private insurance companies that intrude into medical decision-making, deny coverage to maximize profits and restrict access to care by contracting with ever-smaller panels of physicians. Medicare for all would simply be a payment mechanism. Ask current Medicare recipients whether the program interferes with their care in any way. We need to eliminate our crazy patchwork of insurance coverage, which leads to the estimated $400 billion in administrative overhead we now waste annually, and, like every other developed nation, we need offer comprehensive health insurance
to all. The best way to accomplish this goal is to improve and expand Medicare by making its coverage truly comprehensive and by enrolling everyone. That
would make the birthday of Medicare a truly happy one. Dr. Laurence S. Jacobs, an emeritus professor of medicine
at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry and a member of Physicians for a National Health Program, calls Santa Fe home part of the year.

Sangre de Cristo Mountains and the Albuquerque metro area were also under the watch. The report said that a weather system from Arizona would collide with moisture already in New Mexico. The weather service warned that slowmoving thunderstorms could pour up to 2 inches of rain per hour. The watch came after a Friday evening storm flooded the Albuquerque metro area and left residents and authorities cleaning up Saturday and working to restore power to thousands. Albuquerque Mayor Richard
Berry said the storm caused around $500,000 worth of damage around the city. The Albuquerque Police Department’s main station sustained minor damage. The city’s zoo was closed Saturday due to debris, but no animals were reported injured. Emergency management officials urged residents to avoid major roadways as workers battle the aftermath of floods and downed trees and utility lines. Authorities said most of the water that created havoc on streets had receded Saturday and street signs
or police officers had been placed at more than two dozen intersections to handle malfunctioning traffic signals. Officials said the storm also caused minor damage to a levy. “Right now we need time to restore basic services,” Director of Emergency Management Roger Ebner said in a statement. “The best thing the public can do is to stay home, relax and enjoy their weekend while crews work to restore power, clean the roadways and assist motorists.” The National Weather Service reported that a record rainfall of

1.36 inches was set in the city on Friday, breaking the old 1939 record of 0.85 inches. An inch of rain fell at the Albuquerque International Sunport, the Albuquerque Journal reported, with wind gusts of nearly 90 mph recorded at the Sunport. Northeastern parts of the city also saw between 1.6 and 1.8 inches of rain, according to preliminary reports. PNM reported that about 28,000 customers were without power at the peak of the storm. Around 7,000 remained without power Saturday afternoon, PNM said.

ore than 170 artists gathered at the Santa Fe Plaza for the 62nd annual Traditional Spanish Market on Saturday, and all were looking to sell their artwork to market-goers. But sales aren’t the only motivation, and every person brought a different goal to his or her booth. Youth artist Vanessa Martinez, 16, said she never had the chance to meet her great-grandfather — he died when she was 2 — but practicing bulto carving makes her feel as though she is continuing his tradition. Martinez also said she really wants to sell her work to someone who understands the effort
she put into her creations. “You can tell who will really appreciate the work,” she said. “You know it’s going to a good home.” She added that when she turns 18 she will try to get into the adult section of Spanish Market. Charlie Carrillo, a 30-year veteran of market, said he would know that this year’s market was successful if he was still standing and making a living as an artist when it was over. Carrillo, well-known for his traditional artwork, likes to create new takes on his creations. For example, one of Carrillo’s retablos features the Virgin Mary in a convertible with the words,

Groups urge state to consider bear plan ALBUQUERQUE — A coalition of environmentalists and wildlife advocates is asking Gov.

New Mexicans generally have favorable attitudes towards organized religion, with north-central residents being the least favorable, according to a recent survey. The 2013 Garrity Perception Survey, based on a poll of 400 adult New Mexicans during one week in February, explored attitudes toward industries and institutions, people and professions, news and information sources, trust in news sources, in-state tourism, and purchasing preferences. The industries and institutions survey, for example, found that New Mexicans are most favorable toward small business (with 72 percent very favorable or favorable), followed by community colleges (71 percent), national labs (67 percent), farming and ranching (66 percent), state universities (63 percent), and local banks (61 percent). Statewide, 59 percent of respondents were favorable or very favorable toward churches or organized religion, compared to 54 percent in north-central New Mexico, which is defined as Santa Fe, Los Alamos, Rio Arriba, Taos, Colfax, Mora, San Miguel and Guadalupe counties. But while unfavorable attitudes toward churches or organized religion ranged from 2 to 6 percent in other sections of the state, it was 19 percent in north-central New Mexico. Statewide, the least favorable industries and institutions were out-of-state companies (with just 27 percent of respondents having very favorable or favorable attitudes), followed by national banks (30 percent) the justice system (30 percent) and the mining industry (35 percent). The survey found the most favorable attitudes toward mining in eastern New Mexico. The survey on people and professions found that New Mexicans put their highest trust in family and relatives (with 79 percent finding them most trustworthy) followed by teachers (63 percent), religious leaders (62 percent), doctors (60 percent) and scientists (58 percent). Least trustworthy, according to the results, were advertising executives (13 percent finding them most trustworthy), federal officials (14 percent), state officials (16 percent), lawyers (18 percent) and journalists (23 percent). The survey found that eastern New Mexicans have the least trust in scientists. Northwestern New Mexicans had the

sages in support of what they call diversionary feeding have been sent to the governor as part of the campaign. The Game and Fish Department says it doesn’t support supplemental feeding. One concern is that the bears would become dependent on the food caches. The groups argue that food placed in bear habitat would keep the animals away from homes and people. In recent weeks, game officers have captured several bears after they wandered into neighborhoods in the Albuquerque area and elsewhere.
Ex-mortuary worker faces theft charges LAS VEGAS, N.M. — Court documents show that a former employee
of a Las Vegas, N.M. mortuary has been charged with stealing more than $200,000 from the company in a massive embezzlement scheme that went undetected for years. The Las Vegas Optic reports that 62-year-old Molly Martinez was recently charged with multiple counts of embezzlement against Rogers Mortuary after state police discovered that $440,000 had gone missing. Martinez was fired in 2011 after the money was found missing. State investigators say that from 2005 through 2011, her annual salary averaged $26,606. Yet, authorities say, since 2002, Martinez’s registered gambling activities totaled $785,653. Martinez has pleaded not guilty to all charges. Staff and wire reports

KATHRYN COLVIN WILSON Kathryn Colvin Wilson (Kay) of Santa Fe, died peacefully in her sleep at the age of 92 on July 11, 2013. She was born June 18, 1921 to Kathryn and Ralph E. Colvin of Liberal, Kansas. She grew up in southwestern Kansas in the heart of the Dust Bowl during the Great Depression. Her fiercely independent spirit was forged during those years when families struggled to survive. Her dad was a hunter and always provided wild game for their table. Her childhood summers were spent at a family cabin in southern Colorado. It was in her cherished mountains where she met her future husband, David O. Wilson, at age 16. Kay attended Stephens College in Missouri, then earned a bachelors degree from the University of Colorado. She worked as the youngest recruit in the American Red Cross in WWII in North Africa and Italy where she was a social director for the American troops. After the war, Kay was one of the first women accepted in an experimental course in business management training at Radcliff Women’s College at Harvard. She graduated before women were officially admitted to Harvard Graduate School. Kay married Dave Wilson and moved to Santa Fe in 1949 where David worked the family lumber business and later construction of fine custom homes. Dave died from Parkinsons in 2000. They were married over 50 years and raised two lovely daughters. Kay was a treasured volunteer with the First Presbyterian Church, Girl Scouts, Santa Fe Garden Club, PEO, Carlos Gilbert School, the Women’s Board of the Museum of New Mexico, among others. She was an avid supporter of the arts and loved to play bridge. Kay was known for her loving nature, full of gratitude for a life well lived. Her heart belonged to God, the mountains, and to her family and friends. Kay is survived by her sister, Margaret Moore of Liberal, Kansas; sister-in-law, Rachel Wilson of Philidelphia; two daughters, Ann W. Jordan and Kathryn Lee and her husband, Terry Egbert, all of Santa Fe, two grandchildren, Jana M. and her husband, John Amacher of Santa Fe, and Stephen J.

ANN MCNEILL FORTSON MANDUS
NORMAN L. SMITH
(1928 - 2013)
Ann McNeill Fortson Mandus died Sunday, July 21, 2013, at her home in Atlanta from complications of pneumonia and Altzheimer’s disease. Born in Washington, GA, on September 16, 1928, she was the only child of the late Georgia Secretary of State Benjamin W. Fortson, Jr. and his wife, the late Mary Cade Fortson. Ann graduated in 1949 from Georgia State Woman’s College in Valdosta, GA, where she was a member of the school yearbook staff and was voted Queen of the May three times. In 1955 she married renowned Atlanta portrait artist, George Mandus. They established homes in Atlanta and Santa Fe, NM. Fulfilling a promise to her grandmother, Mrs. Annie McNeill Cade of Washington, GA, Ann and George took a pilgrimage to the Scottish Isle of Barra, where they visited the ancestral home and had tea with the laird’s wife at Kisimul Castle. They returned to Britain several times, traveling extensively through the British Isles and enjoying an audience with the Duchess of Bedford at Woburn Abbey. Ann’s interests were many and varied, including Native American culture and history, ancient world history and herpetology (the study of amphibians). She loved to fish and developed a great interest in sharks. She saw Jaws a dozen times and it remained her favorite movie. She instilled her keen sense of humor and her devotion to reading in her children. Christmas was a favorite time for Ann, who made each holiday magical by decorating the family home with theme trees, including a white tree with Chinese fans, a bird and fruit tree, a mouse tree and a grand nine-foot tree in the den. Her Christmas cards were always decorated with images of mice. Ann was a talented cook who was known for the dinner parties and holiday gatherings she hosted for friends. George Mandus preceded his wife in death in December 2012. Ann is survived by one daughter, MaryCade Mandus of Atlanta; one son, Ben F. Mandus (Cheryl) of Gresham, OR; one grandson, Alexander George Mandus (Aubrey) of Portland, OR; an uncle, Warren C. Fortson (Linda) of Atlanta; and two sisters-in-law, Mrs. Mary Springer of McMurray, PA, and Mrs. Ann Smoke of Canonsburg, PA. Ann was a longtime member of Oglethorpe Presbyterian Church in Brookhaven, GA. A memorial service will be held in Washington, GA, in September 2013.
HELEN COMPTON GRAHAM (1928 - 2013) Surrounded by her loved ones, passed away peacefully on July 17, 2013, after a short illness in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Helen’s life was full of adventure. She was involved in her community and independently traveled the world. She embraced different cultures, even learning a new language. Helen easily connected with people throughout her life and many of these bonds lasted a lifetime. Music and dancing at every opportunity brought her lots of joy, even days before her passing. In 1984, Helen chose to reside in Santa Fe, New Mexico, as she loved the traditions and felt she had traveled somewhere unique. During her years in Santa Fe, she happily tutored NativeAmerican children attending the Santa Fe City Schools. For several years she was a docent at The Museum of International Folk Art and at The Museum of Spanish Colonial Art. Embracing the traditions of the community, she was an active member of the Santa Fe Fiesta Council for several years. In 1995, she moved to El Castillo and became an involved resident in this retirement community, loving its location in the heart of Santa Fe. Before moving to New Mexico, she lived for several years in the agricultural, industrial and college community of Wooster, Ohio, a town revered by her as well as many of her forebears. During those years in Wooster, she attended many college classes, often participating in projects dedicated to student concerns. She was preceded in death by her brothers, Bill Compton, Ross Compton, and sister, Catherine Compton Chase. She is survived by her son, Robert Compton Graham (Laurel) of Poolesville, Maryland, and her daughter Laurie Anne Graham of Boise, Idaho, as well as her grandchildren, Heather, Richard, Laura, Justin and Megan. No memorial service is planned, but memory of her may be well served for relatives and friends in the sharing of a favorite poem: After Glow I’d like the memory of me to be a happy one, I’d like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done. I’d like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days. I’d like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun of happy memories that I leave when life is done.

Red River mini-cars in dispute State cop says tourist cars a ‘fatal waiting to happen’ By Eric Heinz Sangre de Cristo Chronicle
A New Mexico State Police officer is concerned about the miniature rental cars tourists use on a state highway in Red River, even though a judge told him they can be driven on public roads without breaking any laws. Riding about a foot and a half off the ground, the 4-foot-tall Scoot Coupes rented out by Mike’s Fun Place owner Mike Julian often share the road with massive SUVs and pickup trucks on Red River’s Main Street, also known as N.M. 38. Sgt. William North of the New Mexico State Police told the Sangre de Cristo Chronicle he wouldn’t be worried if the cars were required to remain on municipal roads. But on state highways, he said, “I think they’re a fatal waiting to happen.” “Confine them to within town. But you could have a fullimpact, 20 mile-per-hour crash with one of those things and it can be fatal,” North said. “To me they rank right there, more dangerous than small cars on highways. They’re a new thing that hasn’t been covered [by law] completely yet.” Julian said he believes the miniature cars are big enough for other drivers to see, and he

For the purpose of this section, the wheelbase is measured upon a straight line from center to center of the vehicle axles.

Horse-cloning battle heads to jurors AMARILLO, Texas — A federal jury in Texas has begun deliberations in a case that pits breeders who clone horses against a pre-eminent registry that refuses to list cloned animals. The jury started deliberations late Friday and will resume on Monday, The Amarillo Globe News reported. The outcome of the lawsuit, filed in 2012 against the American Quarter Horse Association by Panhandle rancher Jason
Abraham and Amarillo veterinarian Gregg Veneklasen, is being closely watched by horse breeder groups nationwide because a ruling could set a precedent. Currently, no U.S. horse-breeder groups list cloned animals. Abraham and Veneklasen argue the association’s refusal to list cloned horses gives it a monopoly over the multimillion dollar quarter horse industry. The Associated Press

Creations: Market supports many dreams Continued from Page C-1 “Mama Lupe’s Counseling Service.” Wind billows her shawl and flame aura. Another work features a motorcycle-shaped retablo with a naked Adam and Eve perched on the bike. The whimsical art gets laughs out of passers-by, and Carrillo said no one has yet been offended by the work. He added that members of the clergy tend to be big fans of his. Three years ago, Carrillo couldn’t have sold such works at the market. But with the addition of the “Innovation within Tradition” category, Carrillo can sell his classic car retablos, and reach a new subset of the market population. “It’s a way of retelling the old stories,” he said. Nina Wood drew people to her booth with a live demonstration of wool spinning. She sat in front of a spinning wheel, wool in hand, while potential customers fawned over her colcha embroidery. Wood, a nine-year market veteran, said she would consider herself successful if she sparked someone’s else interest in her craft. And as she finished that statement, a young girl became entranced with Wood’s spinning. “See, when the kids come by and see the process, there’s a flicker in their brain,” she said. Adam Ulm is a 13-year-old retablo artist who has been at market two years. In between musical sets from the bandstand he jammed on his guitar. While Ulm said he likes his art — his grandmother got him interested — he said he came to market to support his dreams of becoming a professional guitarist. Success for now, he said, is selling his work, and he already has plans for that profit. “I am going to buy a new guitar and DigiTech whammy shifter,” Ulm
Attitudes: Trust in all media sources has steadily dropped Continued from Page C-1

said. He added that he will keep up his artwork as a hobby. Teresa Duran’s retablos feature a brighter color set than
that of most artists. In particular, the liberal use of violet stands out, a color that comes from a huge bag of dried cochi-
neal bugs Duran got in Mexico 10 years ago. Duran said that as a child she lived next to a morada (a shrine of the Penitentes brotherhood), and that inspired her love of religious art. She has been at market four years and said she considers herself successful when her work sparks a spiritual fire — “You change a person’s life when they a buy a piece of your artwork.” Spanish Market continues from 9 am. to 5 p.m. Sunday in the Santa Fe Plaza. Contemporary Hispanic Market, which features modern Hispanic arts, continues during the same time on Lincoln Avenue.
most trust in scientists. The survey on news and information sources found that New Mexicans get their news most frequently from television (58 percent), followed by newspapers (39 percent), Internet news sites (29 percent), radio (28 percent), Internet blogs (17 percent) and social networking sites (17 percent). North-central New Mexico had the highest level of people using newspapers as their main source. Southwestern residents had the least trust toward newspapers. When New Mexicans statewide were questioned on the credibility of news sources, local television news had the highest rating with 55 percent labeling it trustworthy versus 14 percent not trustworthy. National broadcast news was rated trustworthy by 48 percent and not trustworthy by 22 percent. Local newspapers were rated trustworthy by 45 percent and not trustworthy by 17 percent.

RENO, Nev. — The largest outdoor arts festival in North America is about to become bigger. Federal land managers have issued Burning Man organizers a four-year special recreation permit that allows a peak population of 68,000 on the northern Nevada desert this year. Last year, attendance at the offbeat art and music festival on the Black Rock Desert peaked at 56,000 — below the previous maximum allowable population of 60,900. The festival will be held Aug. 26-Sept. 2. Gene Seidlitz, manager of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management’s Winnemucca District, said the agency is requiring organizers to comply with more than 60 conditions related to issues such as security, public safety, resource management Now Servicing All Makes and Models 2 years or 24,000 mile warranty on Parts & Labor.

He said he’s confident that sufficient requirements are in place to protect the starkly beautiful desert’s environment and to ensure public safety. “Our priorities in managing this permit continue to be the protection and conservation of natural and cultural resources, as well as the safety for all participants and staffs,” Seidlitz said. “I feel confident the permit addresses these priorities.” Burning Man spokeswoman
Megan Miller hailed the BLM’s issuance of the multi-year permit, saying organizers are establishing the first shuttle bus service to the event and making other improvements to Black Rock City’s infrastructure to prepare for larger crowds. During the annual weeklong event leading up to Labor Day, the temporary city on the desert about 100 miles north of Reno is one of Nevada’s largest. “We have always been confident in our ability to grow the

worthy by 18 percent. Advertising was considered trustworthy by 16 percent and not trustworthy by 46 percent. Tom Garrity, president of Garrity Group Public Relations in Albuquerque, said this is the third year his firm has done the survey and that the level of trust in all media sources has dropped since 2011. He said the “big shocker” for him was to find out that people are accessing all Internet sources — news websites, blogs and social media — more often than television, but they tend to trust those Internet sites the least. “They might access it quite a bit, but they certainly don’t trust what they’re seeing,” he said “That’s a strange dichotomy right there because, you know, people don’t trust it, but they keep going to it for information.” Brian Sanderoff, president of Research & Polling Inc., which conducted the poll for Garrity, said it had a margin of error of 4.9 percent statewide, but because the sampling was smaller in north-central New Mexico, the margin of error there was 12 percent.

Adopting Santa Fe Woman calls the City Different home after growing up in Houston
I
f it weren’t for Edna Gladney, the superintendent for the Texas Children’s Home and Aid Society, Melina Basch probably wouldn’t have ended up in Santa Fe. After her parents, Helen Rosenberg and Sylvan Basch, experienced their sixth miscarriage, they sought Gladney’s assistance. But the couple soon discovered that although Gladney welcomed all children, during the early part of the 20th century, overt anti-Semitism existed and the orphanage didn’t allow Jewish children. After learning that their options in Texas were limited, they received counseling from Houston’s Rabbi Harry Barnston. Through his direction, the couple Ana Pacheco travelled to New York, A Wonderful Life where they proceeded to adopt a daughter from the Louise Wise Services for Children, an agency that specialized in adoptions of Jewish children. Their adoptive daughter, Melina, was born May 31, 1926, in Manhattan and was formally adopted by the couple in Houston on April 1, 1927. During that time, little information was provided, but the couple did know that their daughter was Jewish. Her biological father was 20 and her mother was 16. She was given up for adoption because the young married couple didn’t have the financial means to care for her. Melina Basch grew up in Houston during a time when a tight-knit Jewish community ran most of the major retailing businesses like Foleys, Sakowitz, Battlesteins and Neiman Marcus. For the next 30 years, Basch was immersed in Jewish culture within the city’s upper-class circle of movers and shakers and worked as a professional model. George R. Roberts, who was her second cousin, went on to become a member of the storied financial firm Kolberg, Kravis and Roberts. In 1990, the book Barbarians at the Gate, written by Brian
Burroughs and John Helyar, was published. The book was later made into a television movie that provided audiences with a birdseye view of the cut-throat era of leveraged corporate buyouts during an era in America that experienced unprecedented wealth for many investors. In 1933, when Basch was 7 years old, her parents brought her to Santa Fe for the annual Fiesta de Santa Fe, and that’s when she fell in love with the City Different. Her family made annual trips to Santa Fe and they always stayed at La Fonda. “Any opportunity that I had, I would come to visit. I spent my first honeymoon in Santa Fe. I love Hispanic culture — when I hear Latin music I have to get up and dance. I was probably Latin in another life,” Basch said. After spending her first year at Lindenwood College in St. Charles, Mo., Basch transferred to the University of New Mexico in 1945. The following year, she married Charles Kapner. The couple has two children, two grandchildren and one great-granddaughter. When Basch divorced for the first time in 1971, she moved to Santa Fe and lived at La Fonda for seven months. For the next several years she immersed herself in Santa Fe’s social scene and stayed in touch with her elite circle of friends in Houston. She married for a second time to Rick Scharli in 1983. The couple later divorced. Around that time, Basch was introduced to the actress Greer Garson and was able to bring closure to her past. In 1941, Garson depicted the role of Edna Gladney in the movie Blossoms in the Dust. “I would visit Greer Garson and her husband, Buddy Fogelson, at their Forked Lightning Ranch in Pecos. By then I had discovered the story of my adoption, and when I came to know Greer Garson and saw the movie, I realized that Edna Gladney did all she could to care for children. It wasn’t her fault that Jewish children were excluded from the orphanage, and my life would have turned out differently if my parents hadn’t gone to New York,” she said.
El mitote Miranda Jory, daughter of El Dorado resident John Jory, is making another appearance on SyFy’s FaceOff. The show is the vein of Project Runway, but instead of crafting dresses, special effects artists are tasked with creating movie monsters. Participants compete for a grand prize of a 2012 Toyota Camry Hybrid, a chance to be a guest lecturer at the MAKE UP FOR EVER Academy in New York City and Paris and $100,000. This isn’t Jory’s first time on the SyFy show. During the second season, she made it to the third of 10 episodes. Let’s cross our communal fingers, and hope the 23-year-old makes it further in the upcoming fifth season, which starts Aug. 13.
hey call her the “Rock of Gibraltar.” Environmental specialist/scientist Cember Hardison is known as a rock-steady presence amid the complex and constantly changing streams of federal air quality regulations impacting the New Mexico Environment Department’s Air Quality Bureau. Continually monitoring these changes, Hardison notifies her staff and permit holders and updates relevant documents accordingly, according to colleagues who nominated her for the department’s Employee of Gussie the Quarter Award. In addition, Fauntleroy her nominators said, Hardison Public Works “creates a positive, cheerful work environment and keeps everyone on track while displaying uncommon levels of patience and respect for the feelings of others.” uuu
Also earning EOQ Awards were Santa Fe-based environmental specialist/scientists Charles “Chuck” Dentino, Steve Jetter and Renae Held and quality assurance manager Tyler Muxworthy. Dentino, of the Surface Water Quality Bureau, was recognized for his “significant contributions” to an understaffed water quality survey on the Rio Chama, among other accomplishments. uuu Steve Jetter is described as a dedicated employee “who works diligently to get assigned tasks completed before deadlines” in the Ground Water Quality Bureau. Thanks to his knowledge of ground water remediation issues, Jetter provides substantial assistance to other staff while keeping up with his own duties, his nominators said.

Melina Basch COURTESY ANA PACHECO
When Basch’s father, who ran the Germolene Chemical Company, died in 1968, he left his only daughter with a comfortable inheritance. For many years, Basch was able to live where she wanted and enjoyed the finer things in life. But with the stock market crash on Oct. 19, 1987, her portfolio was decimated. “I couldn’t believe it — all of a sudden I was broke! I had to sell my house, but after the initial shock, I went out and got a job,” she said.

Aging A-Rod finds himself in corner By Ronald Blum
The Associated Press
After a week’s worth of high drama, secondguessing and radio interviews, it seems Alex Rodriguez is about to be lumped with Yankees who sort of just didn’t fit, failed or just faded away. ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE PHOTO
Loyalty is just fine, as long as it’s not blind L
oyalty is a fine thing. Well, it can be a fine thing. It rather depends on whom or what you’re loyal to. Aaron Rodgers was loyal to Ryan Braun to the point that he allowed himself to be duped and used. Last year, Rodgers, the Green Bay Packers quarterback, not only publicly backed the Milwaukee Brewers outfielder’s claim that he never used performanceenhancing drugs, he called Braun’s detractors idiots and said he would bet a year’s salary on his friend’s innocence. “MLB and cable sports tried to sully the reputation of an innocent man,” Rodgers tweeted. “Picked the wrong guy to mess with. Truth will set u Jim Gordon free.” Actually, there was an The Anti-Fan innocent man whose reputation was sullied. But it wasn’t Braun — it was Dino Laurenzi Jr., the man who in February 2012 transported Braun’s urine sample for testing, which indicated the use of synthetic testosterone and led to Braun’s 50-game suspension. That suspension was overturned by a mediator on technical grounds — grounds he never bothered to explain. Not content with questioning the process, Braun told reporters that he and his legal team had “learned a lot of things” about Laurenzi, and that those “things” raised suspicions. Braun never specified these supposedly suspicious “things” — for the simple reason they never existed. He also suggested that Laurenzi might have purposely contaminated the sample. A perpetrator, Braun portrayed himself as a victim. “I’ve always stood up for what is right,” Braun said following the mediator’s decision. “Today is about everybody who’s been wrongly accused and everybody who has had to stand up for what is actually right.” Rodgers was not the only one duped. Braun’s teammates also drank the Kool-Aid and publicly supported the slugger, not surprising considering the team’s potential success rested a great deal on Braun’s (artificially enhanced) shoulders. In January, when Braun’s connection to the sleazy Biogenesis clinic, essentially a PED dispensary, became known, Braun lied some more. The falsehoods continued until last week when, shown the information Major League Baseball had collected from Biogenesis founder Anthony Bosch, Braun meekly accepted a 65-game suspension and uttered a weak, conditional apology for his “mistakes.” As for the mistake of believing Braun, Rodgers said he was repeatedly lied to and that while he didn’t regret backing up a friend, “Obviously, in hindsight, a more measured approach would obviously be a better course of action.” Rodgers’ approach almost looks measured against that of Mike Pouncey, the Miami Dolphins center, who was photographed at a club wearing a “Free Hernandez” cap in support of Aaron Hernandez, who only happens to be charged with one murder and is a possible suspect in two other homicides. The two were teammates at the University of Florida, which explains — I guess — Pouncey’s choice of head gear. Pouncey’s brother, Maurkice, a center for the Pittsburgh Steelers, wore an identical cap, but at least had the good sense to apologize afterward. Not so Mike. He has tried to deflect questions on the subject, but as the case moves to trial and Pouncey starts facing reporters every day in training camp, I say good luck with that. Loyalty can be a fine thing — but blind loyalty? That’s something else altogether. Contact Jim Gordon at gjames43@msn.com.
NEW YORK — Alex Rodriguez’s corner locker in the New York Yankees’ clubhouse is filled with four cardboard boxes of bats, a dozen jerseys, a dangling athletic supporter, two baseball caps and four books. Rodriguez, who turned 38 Saturday, is something of a cornered
man himself these days. The Yankees consider him a major annoyance, referring to him as Mr. Rodriguez three times in a recent news release. That tension, however, pales when compared to what’s going on with Major League Baseball. Any time now, Rodriguez is expected to be hit with a lengthy penalty that could put him out of baseball indefinitely or perhaps even permanently.
And MLB’s investigation to possible ties between Rodriguez and a Florida clinic accused of distributing banned performanceenhancing drugs isn’t even the primary source of the deteriorating relationship. The Yankees owe him just under $95 million through 2017, and he’s missed the entire season following hip surgery in January. After a week’s worth of high drama, second-guessing and radio
interviews, it seems Rodriguez is about to be lumped with Yankees who sort of just didn’t fit, failed or just faded away — the Dave Winfield, Kevin Brown, Randy Johnson and Carl Pavano wing of infamy rather than the Monument Park honor roll of Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio and Yogi Berra.

CONCACAF GOLD CUP
With renewed love for game, Donovan gives U.S. spark By Nancy Armour
The Associated Press
C
hicago — Burned out and exhausted from more than a decade as the standard bearer for the U.S. soccer team, Landon Donovan needed a break. For four months last winter, soccer was the last concern for the Americans’ career scoring leader. He spent time with family and friends, making up for all those holidays and get-togethers he missed over the years. He traveled to far-flung places, reveling in his respite from the harsh glare of the spotlight. And somewhere along the way, he rediscovered his love for the game he’d been so desperate to escape. The rejuvenated Donovan is a big reason the Americans are in the CONCACAF Gold Cup final Sunday, where they’ll face Panama. He has five goals in five games, tied for a tournament high, and seven assists. Those 12 goals are one more than Panama’s entire team has scored; the Americans lead the tournament with a total of 19 goals. “I’ve enjoyed myself tremendously,” Donovan said Saturday. “I’ve enjoyed helping with the younger guys. I’ve enjoyed being a part of team that really doesn’t have ego, that’s really excited about this opportunity. It’s been really fun to be a part of, and I’ve enjoyed it a lot.” Donovan wasn’t enjoying much after helping the Los Angeles Galaxy win their second straight MLS title on Dec. 1. Saddled with the title of “best player the U.S. has ever produced” since he scored twice at the 2002
World Cup, helping fuel the Americans’ stunning run to the quarterfinals and earning him best young player of the tournament honors, nothing Donovan did was ever good enough. Though the entire U.S. team was dismal at the 2006 World Cup, he took the brunt of the criticism. He was the hero four years later after his spectacular goal against Algeria in stoppage time lifted the Americans into the knockout round, only to hear more grumbling when the Americans lost to Ghana. His early failures in Germany only fueled the negativity, and his success with the Galaxy was overshadowed by the arrival of David Beckham. By the time the Galaxy hoisted the trophy, he was, understandably, drained — mentally and physically, and wasn’t sure if he wanted to keep playing. Never mind that he only turned 31 on March 4, and the World Cup was less than two years away. While the Galaxy told him to take the time he needed, U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann wasn’t quite so understanding. He left Donovan off the squad for a series of World Cup qualifiers, saying Donovan needed to work his way back onto the team. When he finally felt Donovan was ready to play, Klinsmann said he expected

After years of turnover, Broncos enjoy continuity at D-coordinator By Arnie Stapleton The Associated Press
Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio coaches players during training camp Saturday in Englewood, Colo. JACK DEMPSEY/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Every offseason since 2007, Champ Bailey returned to Dove Valley headquarters and had to learn a new scheme under a new defensive coordinator. Not this summer. Jack Del Rio is back for a second straight season with the Broncos. That’s no small thing in Denver, where even the hottest of coaching seats in the league
Sports information: James Barron, 986-3045, jbarron@sfnewmexican.com Design and headlines: Kristina Dunham, kdunham@sfnewmexican.com
were downright cool compared to the Mile High musical chairs at defensive coordinator. Starting with Jim Bates replacing Larry Coyer in 2007, and followed by Bob Slowik (2008), Mike Nolan (2009), Don Martindale (2010), Dennis Allen (2011) and Del Rio, the Broncos were always under the hood with a new mechanic. Now, Bailey said, they can see how fast that baby can go. “That’s pretty much it. You can really build on what we’ve done well in the past. When you
get a new defense, coaches are kind of afraid to put in too much, because it’s all new,” Bailey said. “But now we can expand from what we’ve done good and hopefully get even better.” The Broncos were very good under Del Rio a year ago, ranking second in the league overall, third against the run, third against the pass, first in thirddown percentage, first in yards allowed per play and tied for first in sacks.

Garrett: No decision on Romo for preseason opener By Schuyler Dixon The Associated Press
OXNARD, Calif. — Jason Garrett was a little bewildered by getting grilled a week early over whether Tony Romo would play in the Dallas Cowboys’ preseason opener. The Dallas coach dodged questions on the topic Saturday, a day after the team’s flagship radio station quoted Garrett as saying the Hall of Fame game against Miami next Sunday was “not going to be Tony’s game.” Pressed several times by reporters, about all Garrett would say was the coaching staff hadn’t decided the playing rotation. “I don’t want to get into the hypotheticals,” Garrett said flatly when asked about the comments to the radio station. “We’ll talk about how each of our 90 players will or will not play in those games next week.” The Cowboys have an extra preseason game, and Garrett suggested to the radio station that the starters were more likely to debut in the second game against Oakland. Even if Romo plays, it will only be a handful of snaps. His most important
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo passes during training camp Friday in Oxnard, Calif. MARK J. TERRILL/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
preseason game is the fourth one this year — Aug. 24 against Cincinnati. But Romo just signed the richest contract in franchise history — six
years, $108 million with $55 million guaranteed, or $3 million more than Super Bowl winner Joe Flacco got from Baltimore. And Romo didn’t take a real
snap the entire offseason after having a cyst removed from his back. Thus the varying questions for Garrett on what he hopes to get out of the preseason and how many games are ideal for the starters. “Well, we have five, and so what we’re going to do is try to get our players ready as best we can with those five preseason games,” Garrett said. “The balance is to get your team ready, your starters ready, evaluate your young guys — that’s a really important thing so you cut your team down the right way. And obviously avoiding injuries is an important part of the preseason.” Health isn’t an issue for Romo, who didn’t talk to reporters while leaving the field after Saturday’s early practice. Garrett has acknowledged that Romo “wasn’t quite himself” when training camp opened a week ago, but said the quarterback has progressed well. “You know, he hasn’t been in this environment in a little while,” Garrett said recently. “We’ve monitored his throwing a little bit in the individual periods. But he’s responded well to everything and he’s getting better every day.” Garrett had four preseason games
each of his two previous training camps as coach. If he considers that the ideal number for starters — he wouldn’t say — the Cowboys could hold the first teams out of the game against the Dolphins and play them briefly in the last exhibition against Houston on Aug. 29. “We think it benefits us to be out here a few days earlier, and we certainly think it benefits us and the players on our football team, particularly the young guys to evaluate them in an extra preseason game,” Garrett said. If the starters sit against Miami, at least one of them won’t exactly be thrilled. Safety Barry Church hasn’t played since tearing his Achilles tendon in Week 3 last year. Plus, the Cowboys are implementing the 4-3 defense after nearly a decade with three linemen and four linebackers. There’s still plenty to learn. “If it was only two series out there, I would love to play two series,” Church said. “The first couple of practices out here, I was so anxious, I was hitting my own teammates and that’s not a good thing. I’m very anxious to get back on the field and looking forward to getting back out there, especially for the Hall of Fame game.”
Broncos: With speed at his disposal, Del Rio can consider add-ons Continued from Page D-1 This year, they’re faster after a much smoother and more productive offseason, and not just because they’ve added Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and Shaun Phillips to the mix, either. They hounded Peyton Manning on the first day of training camp and really flustered his backups and the rest of the Broncos’ high-octane offense featuring speedsters Demaryius Thomas and Ronnie Hillman. “Yeah, playing fast,” Del Rio said Saturday after the Broncos’ first padded practice in six months. “Regardless of the timed 40 speed of each guy
on the field we want to look like a team that plays fast because we want to be certain where we’re going, trust each other, be accountable, be reliable and let it rip.” With more speed at his disposal, Del Rio can contemplate add-ons rather than another refurbishing that’s been the norm in Denver through three coaching regimes and the better part of a decade. Sure, the Broncos lost Elvis Dumervil to free agency and are facing the possibility of being without All-Pro linebacker Von Miller, the fulcrum of Del Rio’s defense, for the first month
of the season pending his appeal of a four-game suspension for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy. But for the first time since Mike Shanahan was stalking the sidelines in Denver, the Broncos have stability at the top of their defensive coaching staff. “It means a lot,” said Bailey, the longest tenured Bronco, who’s been here since 2004. “For a corner specifically, it doesn’t change a lot for me personally, but I can definitely see the difference in the guys around me, and that makes a huge, huge difference in what we can do up front and on the back
end with the safeties.” Too often over the years, the Broncos were at times their own worst enemy, with players learning new positions on the fly and making their mistakes on the field, draft picks under one coaching staff being moved into entirely new positions and roles under another, and just when they got it all down, in came a new boss unfurling yet another set of blueprints. “It’s difficult learning new systems year in and year out,” linebacker Wesley Woodyard said. “So, it’s something good to have this year, that consistency and that familiarity around our
team. Everybody knows what we did last year. It’s fun. It’s fun having the same coordinator around.” Defensive end Robert Ayers said he thinks he can finally live up to his first-round billing this year with Del Rio back. “This is my fifth year here and this is the first time where I’ve had a defensive coordinator come back for a second year,” he said. “When you get that familiarity with a coach and he understands what you can do and you don’t have a new coach coming in and trying to figure you out, that’s always a plus.”

NASCAR celebrates time at Indy
By Dan Gelston
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Traditionalists balked and some were downright outraged at the mere suggestion stock cars dare set their fenders on the sacred ground of Indianapolis. Stage a NASCAR race at the home of the Indianapolis 500? May as well make Indy 500 winners swig orange juice in Victory Lane or have the track install lights for a night race. Heck, make it the Indianapolis 350. None of it could have been worse than NASCAR storming their city — an open wheel city. “I think Indy cars belong at Indy and stock cars belong at Daytona,” 1986 Indy winner Bobby Rahal said more than 20 years ago. “I think it’s a big mistake because Indy has all that tradition and romance and I don’t believe it should be tampered with,” said Johnny Rutherford, also a former Indianapolis 500 champion. Romance? What is this, a love story? Well, sort of. It’s time to pucker up and kiss the bricks once again when NASCAR runs its 20th Cup race Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon are as much a slice of Indy racing history as A.J. Foyt and Rick Mears. There’s a generation of drivers coming up who dreamed of racing at Indianapolis for 400 miles, not 500. “You have the Daytona 500 and then the Brickyard 400,” Gordon, a four-time Indy winner, said. “Some people may rank it different than that, but that’s how I look at it. There was a time, maybe back in 1994,

where I would have ranked this No. 1.” Then the next big thing in NASCAR, a 23-year-old Gordon won the inaugural race in 1994. An estimated crowd of 250,000 fans absolutely jammed the place and Gordon recalled the die-hards lined up 10 deep around the garage just to get a peek at the drivers. NASCAR hadn’t just raced at Indy — it took it over. Dale Earnhardt won in 1995 and then Dale Jarrett started a celebration with his 1996 win that lasts to this day. Jarrett and crew chief Todd Parrott knelt down and planted a big ol’ kiss on the bricks, the start-finish line for the race. Who needs milk? Tony Stewart, a former open wheel champion, never got to fulfill his boyhood dream of winning an Indianapolis 500. But the Indiana native has twice won the Brickyard,
putting an emphatic end to his skepticism that a winning a NASCAR race in Indy would never mean as much had it happened in open wheel. “The first time they came, I’ll be honest, I was 100 percent against it,” he said. “When you grow up in the state of Indiana, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is the Holy Grail to you. I didn’t want to see anything different come to it. To me, it was the Indy 500 and that’s all it was supposed to be.” That feeling didn’t last for long. Stewart won in 2005 and 2007 and was won over that NASCAR could truly call Indianapolis home. NASCAR first kicked the tires of running in Indianapolis in the early 1990s. By 1992, the stock car series was ready to take a dip in the Indy pool with two days of tire testing. An estimated 30,000 fans at the Speedway chanted
“We want a race,” as the cars roared from the pit past a handlettered sign, “Indy fans love NASCAR.” In 1993, former IMS president Tony George extended the official invitation for NASCAR to come aboard. On Aug. 4, 1994, NASCAR hit the track for its first practice on the 2½-mile track. Cup veteran Ken Schrader was the first driver to complete a lap. Greg Sacks was the first to bring out a yellow flag as his engine burst just minutes into the opening session. Tim Steele became the first to crunch his car against the speedway’s concrete walls in an official practice. Steele slid off turn three and slammed into the barrier. Gordon was the fastest driver in the opening practice. So it began — and there was no turning back. Gordon, Mark Martin, Jeff Burton and Bobby Labonte have raced in all 20 Brickyards. Because the track oozes racing history, winning still means the same to drivers. “It’s a pretty big deal and there is a good amount of envy to the guys that have won this race before, more so than I feel at other race tracks that I haven’t won at,” Dale Earnhardt Jr. said. “I would say it’s a pretty important race, it ranks right up there.” Johnson and Gordon each have won four times at Indy. Foyt, Mears and Al Unser won four Indianapolis 500s. It’s possible they could join five-timer Michael Schumacher, who won his F1 races on Indy’s road course configuration. “Fifth would be incredible. I can’t believe I have four of them right now,” Johnson said.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
Main: Donovan excels at more than stats Continued from PageD-1 Donovan to be even better than the player he’d been before his sabbatical. “It was his choice to take a little bit of time off. It was his choice to get a little bit of distance,” Klinsmann said Saturday. “He knew his way back to this group only goes through hard work. It goes through good performances. It goes through showing on and off the field. “Because of what he achieved in the past, his benchmark is higher than a lot of the other guys,” Klinsmann added. “We had honest conversations about it, and I said, ‘I want the best Landon ever, I’m not happy with anything less.’ And he took that challenge.” In Donovan’s first game back with the Americans after an 11-month absence, he scored twice in an exhibition against Guatemala and became the first U.S.
player to crack the 50-goal mark. He’s been simply dazzling in the Gold Cup, scoring or having an assist in each of the Americans’ games. But it’s not simply the numbers on the stat sheet. He plays with a pace and rhythm few other players can match, and he sees the field as well as any coach. Both when he plays wide and in front of the goal, he requires additional attention from opposing defenses, opening up opportunities for his teammates. He’s also gone out of his way to help the many young players, and his veteran leadership will be even more vital Sunday with Klinsmann suspended for the game because of a tirade over officiating during the semifinals. “It’s been great to see him back in the fold and playing the way he’s been playing,” said captain DaMarcus Beasley, who has known Donovan since they helped
the U.S. reach the semifinals of the 1999 FIFA Under-17 World Championship. “Like he’s said in different interviews, when he’s happy and excited, that’s when he plays his best. He’s done that throughout this tournament, throughout this month and hopefully he’ll do the same through our qualifying — if he gets called up.” While Klinsmann hasn’t indicated who will be on his squad for the next round of qualifiers, which begin Sept. 6 in Costa Rica, it’s hard to see him bypassing Donovan again. He’s done everything the U.S. coach has wanted — and then some. “We are happy with how things are going — and I’m not saying that because he’s sitting next to me right now,” Klinsmann said. “… Landon is realistic that CONCACAF is not the World Cup. We know that. But he’s very good challenging on all levels and this is, for us, very, very good.”
A-Rod: Yankees in no hurry for his return Continued from Page D-1 On the day he arrived in February 2004 after the big trade with Texas, the sign board outside old Yankee Stadium proclaimed: “A Rod, Welcome to NY.” Now the message from the Yankees is pretty much: We don’t want to see you ever again. During a conference call with management to discuss treatment of his thigh injury, A-Rod insisted on having one of his lawyers on the phone, later saying he “just want to make sure that everything is documented properly.” Following his third straight postseason flameout, New York appears to be in no hurry for A-Rod to return. Each day’s delay means that much more of his $153,005 daily salary is reimbursed by insurance. For much of his career, Rodriguez has bristled at playing a supporting role to Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter, wondering why his teammate receives adulation and he is met with a mixture of antipathy and scorn. Jeter strained a quadriceps and was allowed to rehabilitate with the major league team. Rodriguez strained a quadriceps and was sent to the minor league camp in Tampa, Fla., as if he had been a disruptive student dispatched to the prin-
cipal’s office for a timeout. Wherever he goes, contretemps unfold. “It’s the nature of the business,” Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira said. “Show business, right?” This was supposed to be the best time of Rodriguez’s career, when he made his mark in history. Fifth on the career list with 647 home runs, he was set to pass Willie Mays (660), Babe Ruth (714), Hank Aaron (755) and Barry Bonds (762) and become the all-time leader. Only Ruth had hit more home runs than Rodriguez before turning 38. But his life has seemed to unravel since Dec. 13, 2007, when his record $275 million, 10-year contract was finalized — on the same day George Mitchell issued his report on performance-enhancing drugs in baseball. He helped the Yankees win the 2009 World Series, shaking his image as an automatic October out by hitting .365 in the postseason with six homers and 18 RBIs. But in the time that matters most for the Yankees, he has only six postseason RBIs in 75 at-bats since as his body has fractured with alarming frequency. He’s made six trips to the disabled list in six seasons for a strained right quadriceps
(2008), right hip surgery (2009), a strained left calf (2010), right knee surgery (2011), a broken left hand (2012) and left hip surgery (2013). All the while he kept generating headlines for his divorce; for dating Madonna, Kate Hudson, Cameron Diaz and Torrie Wilson; for participating in high-stakes celebrity poker games; for the $30 million sale of his Miami house; for buying a Manhattan condominium that came with tax abatement. “Everyone goes through personal issues. Mine are on the front page of the papers,” he said five years ago. “I’m fine with it.” He was an example once, a three-time AL MVP praised for a work ethic that included daybreak spring-training sessions with coaches when most teammates were still asleep. But Rodriguez’s reputation has never been the same since just before spring training in 2009, when he admitted using performance-enhancing drugs while he was with the Texas Rangers from 2001-03. Now he is derided in headlines as “A-Roid.” “I’m very sorry and deeply regretful,” he said then, adding he was “young and stupid.” Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig condemned his behavior, saying steroids users had
“shamed the game.” Rodriguez agreed to work for the Taylor Hooton Foundation to combat steroids. But the controversies just kept on coming. He was investigated by MLB for ties to Anthony Galea, the Canadian doctor who pleaded guilty two years ago to a federal charge of bringing unapproved drugs into the United States from Canada. And then Miami New Times reported in January this year that his name was listed in records of Biogenesis of America, sparking the MLB investigation that led to a 65-game suspension for Milwaukee outfielder Ryan Braun, the 2011 NL MVP. A-Rod’s 14 All-Star appearances, his 1996 AL batting title, his two Gold Gloves seem to have little stature in people’s minds. “In the vast hall of baseball history, Rodriguez is over there in the Denny McLain Wing: great talent overshadowed by great mistakes of great variety. Of course maybe this is unfair — to McLain,” ESPN and CNN broadcaster Keith Olbermann said. “MLB will surely act before the latest rehab is over to keep the Yankees from having to put him on the field at the height of a speculative frenzy, and after that he will be contagion personified.”

In brief Jobe, others honored at Hall COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. — Former major league pitcher Tommy John was on hand, appropriately enough, as Dr. Frank Jobe was honored at the baseball Hall of Fame on Saturday. Jobe was recognized for his impact on the sport. He developed the procedure known as Tommy John surgery when he fixed the left-hander’s elbow in 1974. A day before Hank O’Day, Jacob Ruppert and Deacon White were posthumously inducted into the shrine, Paul Hagen accepted the J.G. Taylor Spink Award for meritorious contributions to baseball writing. Tom Cheek, the late Toronto announcer, was honored with the Ford C. Frick Award for broadcasting. Also honored was Thomas Tull, the CEO of Legendary Entertainment and producer of the Jackie Robinson biopic 42.
Lochte leaves TV to swim again BARCELONA, Spain — Ryan Lochte has put his TV career on hold. It’s time to go swimming
again. The American star will lead another powerhouse men’s team into the swimming portion of the world championships, which begins Sunday. He hopes to compete in seven events and doesn’t have to worry about being overshadowed by rival Michael Phelps. Phelps retired after the London Olympics, though there’s plenty of speculation he’s plotting a comeback in time for the 2016 Rio Games. Lochte says he’s focused on turning in the sort of performance that’s expected from him, even though he took time off after the Olympics and hasn’t been able to train as hard as usual because of commitments outside the pool.
Johnson defends flyweight title SEATTLE — Demetrious Johnson used an armbar on John Moraga late in the fifth round and successfully defended his UFC flyweight championship with a submission victory Saturday before a partisan hometown crowd. Johnson, making the second defense of the flyweight crown, controlled most of the fight, then ended it at 3:43 of the fifth round, bending Moraga’s right arm to the point referee Herb Dean stopped the fight.

Rays’ Archer stops Yanks The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Chris Archer threw a two-hitter for his second shutout in three starts, outpitching Yankees 1 Ivan Nova and leading Rays 0 the Tampa Bay Rays to a 1-0 victory over the Yankees on Saturday Kelly Johnson had an RBI single off Nova (4-4) in the sixth to help the AL East-leading Rays improve to 24-5 since June 23, when they were in last place. Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon said before the game Archer (6-3) embraces the big moments, and he sure did at Yankee Stadium. The 24-yearold rookie with a Captain America lunchbox in his locker never threw more than 14 pitches in an inning and needed just 97 overall — 67 for strikes — for his second career complete game. ASTROS 8, BLUE JAYS 6 In Toronto, Chris Carter hit a three-run home run, Justin Maxwell and Matt Dominguez added solo shots and Houston snapped a three-game skid. Dallas Keuchel (5-5) pitched a season-high 7⅓ innings to end a six-start winless streak. He allowed six runs and 10 hits, walked one and struck out six. Jose Veras got the final five outs for his 19th save in 22 chances. ATHLETICS 3, ANGELS 1 In Oakland, Calif., Derek Norris had a pinch-hit two-run home run in the bottom of the seventh, leading Oakland to its second straight win and fifth in the last seven. Jed Lowrie also drove in a run for the A’s and Coco Crisp added two hits. TWINS 4, MARINERS 0 In Seattle, Brian Dozier and Justin Morneau homered, Samuel Deduno pitched seven scoreless innings and Minnesota got its fifth shutout of the season. The Twins have won four of their last six games and are 6-3 since the All Star break. INDIANS 1, RANGERS 0 In Cleveland, Michael Bourn homered to lead off the first inning for the only run of the game, and Justin Masterson took a shutout into the eighth inning, outdueling Texas’ Yu Darvish in Cleveland’s win. Masterson (12-7), an American League All-Star, struck out eight and allowed five hits in 7⅔ innings. That was enough to beat Darvish (9-5), who struck out 11 and held the Indians to three hits in six innings. ROYALS 1, WHITE SOX 0 In Chicago, Wade Davis pitched four-hit ball into the eighth inning, and Kansas City beat Chris Sale and the Chicago White Sox for its fifth consecutive victory. Davis (5-9) allowed four singles and walked three in his longest outing of the season. RED SOX 7, ORIOLES 3 In Baltimore, Stephen Drew hit two homers, drove in five runs and scored three times to power Boston past Baltimore. Shane Victorino also connected for the Red Sox, who won for only the fourth time in 10 games to remain a halfgame behind first-place Tampa Bay in the AL East. Boston stood atop the AL East for 60 straight days before falling into second on Friday night. Drew’s homers came off Scott Feldman (2-2), who allowed four runs and six hits in five innings. INTERLEAGUE TIGERS 10, PHILLIES 0 In Detroit, Miguel Cabrera homered in his first at-bat after returning from a hip injury and Detroit’s Max Scherzer held Philadelphia to one hit in six innings to become baseball’s first 15-game winner. The visiting Phillies lost their seventh in a row. Scherzer (15-1) threw only 75 pitches — he was one of several stars pulled early after the game got out of hand. Detroit scored five runs in the first and three in the second off Raul Valdes (1-1), who started because Cliff Lee was out with a stiff neck.

Harper, Desmond, Span homer to lift Nationals The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Bryce Harper, Ian Desmond and Denard Span all homered, powering the Nationals to a 4-1 win over the Nationals 4 New York Mets on Saturday. Mets 1 Dan Haren (5-11) pitched seven innings for his first win since May 9, allowing one run and three hits. Desmond and Span hit back-to-back homers against Dillon Gee (7-8) in the second inning and Harper followed with a two-run drive in the third. Harper returned to the starting lineup after being limited to pinch-hitting duty in the second game of Friday’s doubleheader. The All-Star outfielder aggravated his left knee while diving for a ball in the opener. BRAVES 2, CARDINALS 0 In Atlanta, Andrelton Simmons hit a two-run double in the eighth inning and Atlanta, boosted by Julio Teheran’s sharp outing, beat St. Louis in a matchup of NL division leaders.

PIRATES 7, MARLINS 4 In Miami, Michael McKenry had a career-best four hits and drove in two runs and Neil Walker and Garrett Jones each added two RBIs in Pittsburgh’s victory over Miami. McKenry, who came into the night batting .191, raised his average

Matt Angle had an RBI triple to tie the score at 3 in Game 2, then came in on Dee Gordon’s RBI single. Gordon went 4-for-7 on the day, scoring three runs and driving in two. The teams play the third of a fourgame set at 6:05 p.m. on Sunday.

A
s Alex Rodriguez combusts in a fiery ball of bad feelings, the Yankees have turned to Alfonso Soriano to save their season. You can’t make this stuff up. Amazingly, perhaps sickeningly if you have that old-fashioned anti-Yankees bias, there’s a chance that the strategy could work, not just in 2013 but next year as well. It would be an escape worthy of David Blaine if Brian Cashman, Randy Levine and the Steinbrenner brothers can pull it off. On one hand, the Yankees are desperate, reuniting with Soriano at a time when they had hit four home runs in 19 games. On the other, they are brilliant. The Cubs will pay so much of Soriano’s 2014 salary that he will be a $5 million guy on their tax rolls next year. On one hand, the Yankees are cunning, hoping that Major League Baseball will hit Rodriguez with a lifetime ban in the Biogenesis case, potentially saving them the $98 million or so they still owe him. On the other, they knew who they were dealing with when they signed that 10-year, $275 million contract with him after the 2007 season, when he had used an opt-out clause in his previous contract. No matter how clownish Rodriguez appears seeking his own diagnoses and doing his own public relations, no matter how quickly Rodriguez is becoming like Albert Belle and Bo Jackson in terms of his health, you cannot feel sorry for the Yankees. They had a chance to close the door on Rodriguez when he was 31, four seasons after they had gotten him in a deal that sent Soriano to Texas. But it hadn’t yet been revealed that Rodriguez had a positive test during that supposedly anonymous round of PED testing in 2003, so they could hope blindly that the most selfish player in the majors had just hit 54 home runs and driven in 156 runs without any unnatural help. Their perspective was colored by not having won the World Series in seven years. They knew their best chance to win one was to keep Rodriguez hitting behind Derek Jeter and an emerging Robinson Cano, so they crossed their fingers and signed the deal, just as they did when they loaded Jeter full of painkillers last October. Whatever anyone thinks of Rodriguez, he paid off on his end of the bargain when he helped the Yankees beat the Phillies in the 2009 World Series after they missed the playoffs in ‘08. He certainly has created his own problems since firing agent Scott Boras and going from one adviser to another, beginning with Madonna’s people, but his deal runs through 2017. It seems too convenient to get him off the books early, whether through an insurance settlement or a lifetime ban. The latter is possible given the seriousness with which MLB views his possible tampering with evidence and witnesses in the Biogenesis case. The Yankees are committed to keeping their 2014 payroll under $189 million, which will give them a fresh start under MLB’s luxury tax structure. They have been taxed at 50 percent on spending beyond the threshold, as a repeat offender, but could go down to 17.5 percent after the reset. Getting Soriano at a huge discount, as they did Vernon Wells earlier in the year, will help the Yankees re-sign Cano — if not also Curtis Granderson — and have a shot to stay under the threshold next season. But the only reason fans will welcome back Soriano is if he hits, and there’s no reason he shouldn’t. Soriano’s .927 OPS for July ranks 30th in the majors among players with 70-plus plate appearances, ahead of every Yankee except Cano (1.037). Manager Joe Girardi says he will move Soriano between left field and designated hitter, and pitchers from the Red Sox, Orioles and Rays will have to respect him. He will help. The big impact, however, will come if they can get the Rodriguez contract off
the books and start reconstructing their ancient roster. Win or lose, it’s the feel-bad story of the season.
Slippery slope It’s easy to understand why Matt Kemp would suggest Ryan Braun should be stripped of his 2011 MVP award. But neither MLB nor the Baseball Writers Association of America has shown a desire to revisit awards won by players who subsequently were linked to steroid use. Kemp said he was disappointed when Braun’s negotiated suspension was announced Monday. “I don’t like to get lied to,” said Kemp, who finished second to Braun in the 2011 vote. “I don’t think anybody likes to get lied to. I think a lot of other people feel the same way. I’m not the only one in that boat. I’m just another one of those guys on the list who are disappointed in what has come about in the last couple of days.” Beginning with the late Ken Caminiti in 1996, 21 of the last 68 MVP and Cy Young awards have gone to players who have been linked to PED use or strongly suspected of being users. Would it be fair to strip Braun and not give the 2000 MVP to Frank Thomas instead of Jason Giambi? It seems awfully difficult to draw that line.
Up next Braun’s suspension has put the Rangers and Tigers on notice. They cannot count on having Nelson Cruz and Jhonny Peralta with them for their playoff push and, without a terrific resolution to the case for them, could be missing those important players in the postseason. At some point soon, MLB will go to the players union with the list of players facing suspensions from Biogenesis (most likely 12 to 15 players, including minor leaguers). The length of suspensions essentially will be negotiated, and players will have to decide whether to begin serving the suspensions immediately, as Braun did, or delay them on appeal (and probably risk longer suspensions). Officials with the Rangers and Tigers insist they have been kept in the dark on the process, but they should be lining up options to replace their guys. Cruz and Peralta will be free agents after the season, so it’s asking a lot to expect them to appeal the suspensions so they can remain on the field. That would leave them still facing suspensions while lining up contracts, a very tricky business. One option, which seems more viable for the Rangers than the Tigers, is to sign the players to contract extensions with the understanding that a 2013 suspension would be appealed, leaving it most likely to be served next season. But the Tigers don’t want to tie themselves to Peralta, believing they need a better defensive shortstop for the long haul. They could be a fit if the White Sox offload Alexei Ramirez, who reportedly is a consideration for the Cardinals. The Rangers signed Manny Ramirez to a minor league contract when he returned from a short stint in Taiwan. But scouts who have seen him with Triple-A Round Rock question if he has the bat speed to hit bigleague pitching.
THE WHISPERS u In their 21-year history, the Marlins have been shut out in three consecutive games only twice — the first three games after the All-Star break and Aug. 12-14 last year. Giancarlo Stanton was 1-for-20 with eight strikeouts in those games. Why won’t they trade him? u Christian Yelich, just promoted by the Marlins, has one of the prettiest left-handed swings in the majors. He will give fans a reason to watch games Jose Fernandez isn’t pitching. u Matt Kemp’s third DL stay this year means he will have missed at least 105 of 239 games since his streak of 399 consecutive games played ended in May 2012. u Brett Gardner drew a 15-pitch walk off Red Sox reliever Junichi Tazawa last Sunday that took 9 minutes, 10 seconds to complete. He made Joe Nathan throw 14 pitches to him in a ninthinning at-bat the next night, eventually flying out. u According to Elias, the Cardinals’ Shelby Miller is the first Cardinals pitcher 22 or younger to win 10-plus games in his first 20 starts of a season since Steve Carlton in 1967. Paul “Daffy” Dean (1934-35) was the last to do it before Carlton. u Despite all the money spent on Nick Swisher, Michael Bourn, Brett Myers and Mark Reynolds, the free agent currently having the best impact on the Indians is Scott Kazmir, who has a 2.97 ERA in his last 11 starts. He was pitching for the Sugar Land (Texas) Skeeters this time last year. u Jake Peavy is definitely in the picture for the Braves, who are looking to add a starter to replace Tim Hudson. Brandon Beachy, 13 months removed from Tommy John surgery, joins the Braves rotation Monday. u There was a real Chicago angle to the Hall of Fame introductions, with Wheaton-based publisher Jerry Watkins speaking for his great-grandfather, the late Deacon White, and retired Chicago policeman Dennis McNamara giving a speech for his great-uncle, the late Hank O’Day, who becomes the only inductee who was in the majors as a player, manager and umpire. u The Cubs’ Junior Lake is the third big-leaguer whose given name is Junior, joining infielder Junior Kennedy (a .212 hitter in 122 career games with the Cubs) and outfielder Junior Felix.
manager Clint Hurdle a solid option in the ninth inning. Not only is the bullpen plenty deep in front of Melancon, but there’s time left for general manager Neal Huntington to add an arm. But Grilli is the key foundation piece for the pitching staff. Lots of fingers are crossed for a healthy return. He has a chance to be the first Pirate since Dave Giusti in 1971 to lead the NL in saves.

WNBA
Parker gives lead to West By Doug Feinberg The Associated Press
UNCASVILLE, Conn. — Candace Parker put on a show in her All-Star debut. Parker scored a record 23 points to lead the West to a 102-98 victory over the East on Saturday. “I didn’t know what to expect,” Parker said. “I hadn’t been to one, and this was really special. Being with all these great players and sharing stories, that’s what I’ll remember from this All-Star game more than what happened on the court.” The Los Angeles Sparks star was voted a starter for the 2011 game, but couldn’t play because of a knee injury. She also missed the 2009 game because she was still recovering from the birth of her daughter. “Things happen,” Parker said. “I learned not to question them and go on my path and take whatever comes. It happened to work out this way.” The wait was worth it as Parker, who earned the game’s MVP honors. While the award was special, Parker and her West teammates were more excited that got the victory for retiring star Tina Thompson. “We didn’t want her to go out with a loss,” said Parker, who was quickly heading back to Los Angeles after the game to get to a family reunion that she was hosting. Thompson, who made her record ninth All-Star appearance, announced her retirement at the end of the season. She had a rough game missing all five of her attempts from the field, but still enjoyed the moment. West coach Cheryl Reeve put her back in the lineup with a few seconds left to get one final ovation from the fans. Parker’s stellar game helped

the league overcome the loss of Brittney Griner and top votegetter Elena Delle Donne, who sat out because of injuries. The pair have been an attendance and ratings boon for the league. Griner has missed Phoenix’s last five games with a sprained left knee and Delle Donne suffered a concussion in Chicago’s game Wednesday. They were poised to make history as the first pair of rookies from the same class to start the WNBA All-Star game. But Griner sat on the bench, while Delle Donne recovered at home in Delaware. “It hurts not being able to play, but I’m having a lot of fun just cheering,” Griner said. Even though the rookies couldn’t play, the WNBA had seven other first-time All-Stars in the game. That didn’t even include Parker. Despite joking before the game that she was “too old” to dunk, Parker threw down a few in warmups. After a quiet first half, she helped rally the West after the
break. With her team trailing by 11 early in the third quarter, Parker scored seven straight points. After the foul by Tamika Catchings, Parker flexed her muscles and used a nifty stutterstep from the wing for an easy layup. Parker finished off her run with another lay-in. After Sparks teammate Kristi Toliver hit back-to-back 3-pointers to the tie game, Ivory Latta hit her own 3-pointers to give the East an 81-74 advantage heading into the final period. Parker, who finished with 11 rebounds, and Toliver wouldn’t let the West lose for the fourth time in the past five All-Star games. Parker broke Swin Cash’s All-Star game record of 22 points with a layup midway through the fourth quarter. East coach Lin Dunn, who it was announced will be inducted into the women’s basketball Hall of Fame next year, joked that there was a simple reason her team came up short. “They had Candace and we didn’t,” she said laughing.

Man accused of stalking Ashanti in New York
Dewan-Tatum juggling new TV show, baby
NEW YORK — An Illinois man who served jail time for stalking R&B singer Ashanti has been indicted in New York for again stalking and harassing the Grammy Award winner. Prosecutors say Devar Hurd was indicted Friday in state Supreme Court in Manhattan. Prosecutors say he violated an order of protection when he sent more than 100 tweets to the singer’s Twitter account between Sept. 2012 and last weekend.

Tim Allen wants to reclaim N-word in comedy
Tim Allen
LOS ANGELES — Tim Allen isn’t a fan of the N-word — not just the word, but the phrase. The 60-year-old actor-comedian told the Tampa Bay Times in Florida that the term “N-word” is worse than the real racial slur. The star said he thinks the criticism that keeps non-black comedians from using the actual N-word is a step backward from the days when Richard Pryor and Lenny Bruce purposefully used such language. Allen’s comments were published this week, but he made them last month after it was revealed Paula Deen admitted using slurs.

The show debuts this fall. Everly Tatum was born May 31 in London, where her father was filming the movie Jupiter Ascending. Dewan-Tatum said the couple has a rule about not going more than two or three weeks without seeing each other. “We don’t break it,” she said. “Channing has been amazing.

Casino pushes out 9/11 memorial By Hannah Dreier
The Associated Press
LAS VEGAS, Nev. — The city known for detonating its past to make way for gleaming new development on the Las Vegas Strip is preparing to push out its Sept. 11 memorial. The shrine on the Las Vegas Strip sprung up spontaneously under the ersatz skyline of the New York-New York casino in the days after the terrorist attacks. For more than a decade, a rotating collection of first responder T-shirts from across the country, many bearing handwritten notes, has decorated a wrought-iron fence near the faux fireboat below the casinos’ 47-story replica of the Empire State Building. Now, MGM Resorts International is starting a $100 million renovation of the promenade in front of 16 year-old Manhattanthemed casino and the adjoining Monte Carlo. The memorial will have to go. MGM says it will relocate the shrine, which has remained a heartfelt marker amid the plastic artifice of the desert playland. “We are working with representatives of the First Responder community in Las Vegas to identify and determine an appropriate and permanent placement of the memorial to the victims of September 11th,” MGM spokesman Clark Dumont said in a statement Friday. On Friday morning, several quiet bulldozers and a pile of rubble sat around what remained of the display. In 2003, the University of Nevada, Las Vegas began collecting the T-shirts, hats and handwritten notes left at the memorial. It now stores nearly 6,000 of the artifacts in plain office boxes at the university library. Curators rotate the memorabilia through a permanent display case that MGM opened in 2003 at the foot of the resort’s 150-foot model Statue of Liberty. Professor David Schwartz, who oversees the university’s involvement with the memorial, said he hopes MGM will relocate the display somewhere equally visible. “It would be nice to have the public be able to view the shirts still. It’s something unique to Vegas, though of course the tragedy affected everybody,” he said. “When we first got the shirts and we were going through them, just seeing the messages people who had lost someone had written kind of drove the horror of the whole thing home.”

Jumbo home loans back on the table
STRAW-BALE GARDENING
Skip the ground
By Mary Ellen Podmolik Chicago Tribune
It’s a good time to buy an expensive home. Jumbo mortgage loans, which sizzled during the housing market’s run-up and then fizzled spectacularly, are back with more flexible products from more lenders and interest rates that are inching ever closer to the terms offered to buyers of much less luxurious homes. As a result, more consumers are able to consider the purchase of luxury homes, a market that has been long stalled. Nationally, the annual dollar volume of jumbo loans is on pace to be the best since 2007, and a growing field of lenders is seeking to build a customer base or cement established relationships by offering those mortgages. “For a long time, it was, ‘Oh, God, wait and see what happens with the mortgage,’ ” said Matt Farrell, managing partner of Urban Real Estate in Chicago. “The banks have a renewed confidence in the collateral.” During the housing industry’s darkest days when private investor interest in mortgages was nil, the overwhelming majority of mortgages written were either Federal Housing Administration-backed loans or mortgages that met Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac standards and were then sold to either agency. The loan limit for those loans in most parts of the country is $417,000. Even during the downturn, lenders continued to make some jumbo loans to their very best clients — those with stellar financial pedigrees that included high credit scores, high cash reserves and sizable down payments, sometimes of more than 30 percent of the purchase price. The loans were held on the lender’s own books. What’s different today is that demand for big loans is on the rise, and lenders are eagerly stepping in at a time of recovering home prices and improved economic reports. Jumbo loan volume still pales in comparison with the market’s headier days, but there are also successful efforts to bundle and sell jumbo mortgage securities to private investors. Jumbo loan originations totaled $203 billion last year. If the first-quarter pace of $54 billion continues, $216 billion of jumbo loans could be written this year, according to Inside Mortgage Finance, a trade publication. About 7 percent of that first-quarter volume was bundled and sold to private investors on the secondary market. “The jumbo market we have now was created in 2009 after the crash and is very conservatively underwritten,” said Guy Cecala, CEO and publisher of Inside Mortgage Finance. “The good news for jumbo borrowers is in terms of underwriting or choice, the market is the best it’s been in the past five years.” Higher fees charged by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are shrinking the interest rate spread between conforming and jumbo loans, as is competition by lenders to woo high-net-worth customers. At the end of June, for example, the average interest rate for a 30-year, fixed-rate jumbo mortgage was only 0.17 percentage point higher than a conventional loan, compared with a 0.5 percentage point difference a year earlier, according to financial publisher HSH.com. That spread had climbed as high as 1.8 percentage points in December 2008, when the average interest rates were 5.2 percent for a 30-year, fixed-rate conforming loan and 7 percent for a jumbo mortgage. “The spread is crazy right now. It’s so close right now,” said Randy Ernst, a vice president of mortgage lending at Guaranteed Rate. “Underwriting is still tough, but [lenders] want to do the business right now. “It’s a risk-reward thing. You look at the client in the jumbo sector. They’re very good clients. A lot of my jumbo clients have a lot of money in the bank.” “It’s easier than it was a year to two years ago,” agreed Eric Schuppenhauer, Chase’s head of mortgage originations. Dr. Matthew Flak and his wife, Sarah Payne, recently decided it was time to move out of the 1,000-square-foot Chicago condo they shared with a dog and two cats, but they were unsure what kind of mortgage they could get, since Flak had a business loan tied to his dental practice. To their delight, the couple were able to secure a jumbo loan to purchase a $657,000, 4,000-squarefoot home in Orland Park, Ill., two weeks ago that required a 10 percent down payment on a 3.75 percent adjustable-rate mortgage. They plan to refinance the loan into a fixed-rate jumbo loan before the end of the year. “I wanted to buy a home that we were going to be in for a long time,” Flak said. “It’s a little more than I wanted to spend right now, but it’s only going to get more expensive. I didn’t want to have to buy a house and then go buy another house in five to seven years. If [the rates] go up maybe 2 percentage points, maybe it’s prohibitive for us.”
(and the weeds) BY SARAH WOLFE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ad soil? Not enough soil? Maybe even no soil? Skip the ground and try planting fruits and vegetables in straw bales instead, suggests Joel Karsten, author of Straw Bale Gardens (Cool Springs Press, 2013) and guru of one of this year’s gardening trends. The idea behind straw-bale gardening is simple. “It’s basically a different type of container garden,” says Karsten, of Roseville, Minn. Only the vessel is a bale of straw and the medium, a nutrientrich compost created by the straw and a bit of fertilizer, is weed-free. That’s right. No weeds. Perhaps that’s what’s drawn tens of thousands of people to Karsten’s Facebook page on straw-bale gardening. Marketing executive Patricia Baker tried the technique as a way to avoid the weeds that abound in the heavy, clay soil at her home in the Berkshire mountains of Massachusetts. “I found that some plants did better than others — basically the ones that like the heat, like peppers,” says Baker, 51, who also had success growing tomatoes. “Overall, there are very few weeds to contend with and you don’t have a backache at the end of your gardening day. Also, after you harvest, you can use the leftover straw for mulch.” Straw-bale gardening lengthens the growing season in colder climates because the straw releases heat as it decomposes. In Jamestown, R.I., gardener and freelance writer Roger Marshall, 65, planted tomatoes in April and expected to begin pick-
ing his Earl Greys and beefsteaks in mid-July — about a month ahead of schedule. “Right now the plants are lush and about twice the size of the control tomatoes I planted directly in front of the bales,” he says. For Karsten, a 43-year-old graduate of the University of Minnesota’s horticulture program, the idea sprang from his days on the family farm. As a child, he was intrigued by the thistles and other plants he’d see sprouting from wet bales of straw, and he wondered how they grew. After college, he began experimenting with straw bales as a growing medium at his suburban St. Paul home, which sat at the edge of a swamp on top of construction fill. “I couldn’t grow vegetables in what I had, so I thought, ‘What if I use straw bales like I saw up against the side of the barn?’ ” says Karsten. After some trial and error, he figured out how to “condition” the bale for planting. Karsten offers these tips to start your own straw-bale garden (and, no, it’s not too late this season):
What you’ll need First, be sure to buy straw bales, not hay. Hay bales contain seeds, which will grow into weeds, and isn’t that one big reason you’re trying straw-bale gardening in the first place? Hay bales are typically green while straw bales are a golden yellow. You can find them at many nurseries and garden stores, and Karsten has also started a website (www.strawbalemarket.com ) to help people find bales for sale.
Author and gardener Joel Karsten picks tomatoes from his straw-bale garden. Karsten is the leading evangelist of a strawbale gardening movement that has become one of this summer’s hottest gardening trends. COOL SPRINGS PRESS/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
About 15 bales will provide the same production as a 20-squarefoot traditional soil garden. Karsten suggests using about five bales per person you want to feed. You’ll also need a soaker hose and 2½ cups per bale of lawn fertilizer that’s at least 20 percent nitrogen, with no added herbicides. If you’re going the organic route, Karsten recommends using three pounds of blood meal per bale.
Condition the bale Before planting, you need to “condition” the straw bales for 10 to 12 days. First, lay them out as you want them in the garden, placing them end to end in a row and turning them up on their sides. Every other day, sprinkle some of whatever fertilizer you’re using over the bale and “wash” it into the bale with a spray hose, watering long enough that water comes out from under the bale, Karsten says. On days you don’t fertilize the bale,
keep watering it once a day until saturation. On the 12th day, you should be ready to plant on the tops and even the sides of the bales, spacing the plants as you normally would. If planting seeds, lay down 1 to 2 inches of potting soil on top of the bales first.
Maintenance There’s not a lot of maintenance required, but Karsten does recommend watering the bales every day when it’s hot with a soaker hose or a dripper system with one hose down into the middle of the bale. Every two to three days is fine in the spring and fall. Trellises are needed for taller or climbing plants like tomatoes and beans, and Karsten recommends covering the bales with a tarp if temperatures are going to dip to 30 degrees or lower at night. Many times, you can use a bale two years in a row, but after that, it’s time to pile them together for use as compost next spring.

pergola or other substantial structure — the underside of a deck, say — creates alluring outdoor lighting. “The more the better,” he says. “If you do a ton of those, you’ll have an [art] installation.” Bromstad recommends cutting off the wine bottles’ bottoms and stringing the lights through the bottles with outdoor lamp cord. Visit Pinterest, the online projects board, for images of this and other ways to use wine bottles as lighting. Bromstad is known for creating large pieces bursting with color for his TV show clients. DIYers can do the same for an outdoor space, he says, by using outdoor-safe supplies: pressure-treated plywood instead of canvas, and an outdoor primer and paint. Bromstad uses Nova Color, an acrylic paint that stands up well to the elements. Distress the plywood before painting to accentuate its roughness, he suggests. Do drip painting — a la Jackson Pollock — if your artistic skills are limited. “Everything that has to be outdoors has to last through the elements,” Bromstad says, “so you might as well make it look rough from the beginning.”

Even a small slice of the big outdoors can call for big art. With some do-it-yourself ingenuity, creating artwork for an outdoor living space needn’t be costly or complicated. In a few summer hours, you can make a piece, large or not-so-large, that packs a visual wallop. Just keep in mind the advice of Bob Richter, interior designer and cast member of PBS’ treasure-hunting series Market Warriors: “There’s a fine line between ‘What’s that piece of junk in your yard?’ and art.” Landscape designer Chris H. Olsen, of Little Rock, Ark., is fond of wine bottles, repurposing empties in myriad ways for the garden — as an artsy wall, accent lighting and art objects. “I’m all about fun, funky, great displays and projects that are relatively easy to do,” says Olsen. To add patio privacy or garden interest, Olsen builds a wine bottle wall: vertical rows of wine bottles inserted into a wood frame using metal rods. “I love a little ‘bling bling’ in the garden, and I love glass,” says Olsen, who details many out-

TIME OUT Horoscope HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, July 28, 2013: This year you enter a phase in which you would prefer not to be found so easily. You might have unusual demands that require your attention. Whether they have to do with your professional life or your community, you will like the results so much that you will not mind the lack of personal time. If you are single, you meet people with ease. A relationship could develop from a friendship. If you are attached, the two of you often will be seen acting as newfound lovers in public together. Taurus pushes your buttons. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH A family member or roommate seems to be so buoyant that you might do a doubletake. Share the moment. The more upbeat this person is, the more you will tend to overindulge. Days like this do not happen often. Tonight: It might be hard to stop the good times. This Week: You might feel as though you are walking on a tightrope. Be careful.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You’ll perk up by the afternoon. Others surround you or seek you out. Clearly, you are in a position where you can pick and choose your company. Your charisma attracts others, some of whom you would like to push away. Be diplomatic. Tonight: Forget tomorrow. This Week: You blaze full force into this week. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH Use the morning for anything that is critical. By the afternoon, you will be in the mood to vanish, and you won’t want to be found for a while. You are much quieter and more centered than you have been as of late. Enjoy some time just for yourself. Tonight: Shh! Don’t tell. This Week: Not until Wednesday will you feel up to snuff. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Responsibilities call in the morning, and you will be more than happy to tackle them. Others will be in awe of your followthrough. Join friends in the afternoon. It will lift your spirits and bring a smile to your face. Tonight: The party goes on. This Week: Use Monday and Tuesday to the max.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH The morning works well, as you are able to return calls and catch up on news. A trip might be in the offing in the near future. The more exotic the location, the more you will enjoy your vacation. Share your mellow mood when out and about. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. This Week: Everyone notices what you are doing, so do it well. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Listen to news more openly. A close friend will share his or her vulnerability; honor that openness. Pack up the family and go to a favorite spot by the water. A picnic could add to the fun. You will see a loved one be more responsive. Tonight: Stay present in the moment. This Week: Be imaginative, especially when dealing with people. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You could be feeling the effect of others seeking you out.

Tonight: Say “yes.” This Week: Defer to others; they think they know better anyway. SAGITTARIUS(Nov.22-Dec.21) HHHH By the afternoon, you could be worn out.

recently got a letter from a reader who was outraged by what he saw as an assault on good grammar — specifically, the widespread use of “their” instead of “his” in this sort of construction: “Nobody can taste their own tongue.” Not long ago, I would have agreed with the letter writer — grammatically, I lean toward harrumphy rulebook tyranny, and “nobody” is, indeed, singular. But in this case, I wrote back that after some thought, I have come to accept “their” as a reasonable compromise over an intractable problem. “His or her” is clumsy, and just “his” is sexist. There is no reason the male pronoun should dominate. That, I concluded, was a relic of a more chauvinistic era, when, for example, language insisted on designating women (but not men) by their marital status, or even more egregiously, when terms such as “Negress” or “JewGene ess” were in common use. Weingarten The reader wrote back to say that I The Washington had actually changed his mind. This Post does not happen to journalists very often, and it felt good. Moreover, it felt like a challenge! If I could make that small concession to delicacy over dogma, perhaps I could open my mind to even greater linguistic sensitivities, extend my public approval, and in a small way help soften our national lexicon. It was at that moment that someone leaked me a document that would test my new resolve. Below are verbatim excerpts from a letter from an animalrights activist to the scheduled speakers at an upcoming convention in Washington. He is urging language sensitivity. I have annotated it. u “Because animals are living, feeling, sentient individuals, rather than objects, please refer to them as ‘he,’ ‘she,’ or ‘who,’ rather than ‘it’ or ‘which.’ ” Agreed! So far, so good! u “Because we don’t want to join the meat industry in denying animals personhood, please refrain from referring to animals raised for food as ‘livestock,’ ‘cattle,’ ‘hogs,’ ‘broilers,’ ‘layers,’ and so on, and from referring to animal flesh as ‘beef,’ ‘pork,’ ‘poultry,’ ‘veal,’ and so on.” Still with you, sorta. Personhood is a good thing. But does “and so on” extend to, like, worms? Are worms people? Not that I’m saying they aren’t. Just exploring boundaries. We’re mostly still cooking with gas here — veggies only. u “Because animals are not our property, please use the term ‘guardian,’ rather than ‘owner,’ ‘animal companions,’ rather than ‘pets,’ ‘animals in laboratories’, rather than ‘laboratory animals,’ ‘animals used for food,’ rather than ‘food animals,’ and so on.” OK, look. I’m not sure what’s so bad about “pets.” I don’t think the term implies mistreatment or even subservient status. My pet, Murphy the dog, pretty much runs my life. But more important, I’m not sure I like the alternative designation. Doesn’t “companion” suggest Murphy has some sort of choice as to whether to stick around or not? Because I don’t think she should have that choice. Not to put too fine a point on it, but if Murphy realized she was free to go, she would go, inasmuch as she knows the way to the guy who sells bacon. Her trip would last 33 feet, which is the distance from my front door to the high-speed vehicle under which she would explode, inasmuch as Murphy has never figured out that moving cars are real things, as opposed to holograms that you can pass through without penalty. u “Please refrain from using derogatory terms like ‘animal,’ ‘beast,’ ‘pig,’ ‘rat,’ or ‘snake’ to indicate a person who is violent, uncouth, messy, disloyal, or devious, and consider replacing the everyday expressions such as ‘killing two birds with one stone’ with ‘feeding two birds with one scone.’” I don’t want to be picky, I really don’t, but technically, are scones even good for birds? Might it not be possible to inadvertently kill two birds with one scone? That’s where I stopped reading. Nobody wants to see their own head explode.

Some Dietary Flavonoids Linked to Lower Risk of Ischemic Stroke
Fruits and vegetables are rich in flavonoids, a colorful family of antioxidants. Some of these flavonoids may reduce the risk of ischemic stroke – the type caused by a blood clot in the brain. Aedin Cassidy, PhD, of the Norwich Medical School, England, collaborated in the study with researchers at Harvard University. They focused on 69,622 women participating in the ongoing Nurses’Health Study. Every four years, the women completed a dietary questionnaire. Over 14 years of follow up, women consuming a subcategory of flavonoids, called flavanones, had a 19 percent lower risk of stroke. Flavanones are found chiefly in citrus fruits, and women consuming large amounts of these fruits and juices had a 10 percent lower risk of stroke. Studies have found that other types of flavonoids, such as anthocyanidins, also lower the risk of stroke. Addressing the larger picture of fruit and vegetable consumption, Cassidy and his colleagues wrote, “Increased consumption of fruits and vegetables has been associated with a reduced risk of stroke. In a meta-analysis of existing cohort studies, those consuming three to five servings/day and more than five servings/day had an 11 percent and 25 percent reduction in risk of stroke, respectively, compared with those consuming less than three servings/day.” Reference: Cassidy A, Rimm EB, O’Reilly EJ, et al.

Cognitive Impairment Linked to Low Vitamin E Levels Low levels of vitamin E may be a factor in mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease, according to a new study. Francesca Mangialasche, MD, of the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden, and her colleagues studied 168 people with Alzheimer’s disease, 166 with mild cognitive impairment (a prelude to Alzheimer’s), and 187 cognitively normal people. Mangialasche measured blood levels of both families of vitamin E molecules, tocopherols and tocotrienols. Both groups of vitamin E consist of four specific molecules. People with Alzheimer’s disease and mild cognitive impairment had lower levels of total vitamin E, total tocopherols, and total tocotrienols. People with either of the diseases were 85 to 94 percent less likely to have high concentrations of vitamin E in their blood. In addition, people withAlzheimer’s disease and mild cognitive impairment had higher levels of “damaged” vitamin E in their blood.

Could K2 be the next vitamin D? By Lindsay Wilson
A decade ago, no one gave vitamin D much thought A – it was added to milk to help build strong bones, end of
story. But it wasn’t long before vitamin D burst onto the scene as one of the most important nutrients for human health, with research discovering it played a role in almost all aspects of health including heart health, brain health, immunity, and helping to prevent certain cancers and other degenerative diseases. And when vitamin D testing became ubiquitous, it was discovered that most of us were deficient in this important vitamin, leading to a surge in supplementation.
Now think about vitamin K for a minute – it important for blood clotting, right? That’s right, but like we learned with vitamin D, there’s a lot more to this vitamin than meets the eye. This is especially true when it comes to vitamin K2, which is turning out to be just as important as vitamin D to human health. And like its predecessor, most of us are deficient in this fat-soluble vitamin.
A tale of two Ks
“Vitamin K” is not a single vitamin, but a group of structurally similar, fat-soluble vitamins that are necessary to activate proteins in the body that are essential for blood coagulation and calcium metabolism. Although this group of vitamins works together, and there is some crossover in their functions, K1’s primary function is to activate proteins to promote healthy blood clotting. It is found in leafy green vegetables, including spinach, kale, and collard greens. K2’s main physiological function is to activate specific proteins that direct calcium to where it needs to go (the bones and teeth) and away from soft tissues (like the arteries); in other words, K2 is important

in preventing osteoporosis and atherosclerosis. Food sources include pastured egg yolks, butter from grass fed cows, cheese, organ meats, and the Japanese fermented soy product natto. Deficiencies of K2 are quite common, in part because the collective American diet has strayed from these traditional foods.
Bone and cardiovascular health… what’s K2 got to do with it?
The short answer? Everything! Vitamin K2’s most important physiological function in the body is to activate two proteins – osteocalcin and matrix gla protein (MGP) – that are crucially important to bone and cardiovascular health. Osteocalcin directs calcium into the bones and teeth, where it belongs, while MGP removes calcium from soft tissues like the arteries and veins. In short, these proteins play a significant role in the prevention of osteoporosis and atherosclerosis, a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, and vascular dementia. Osteocalcin and MGP are vitamin K2 dependant – if there is insufficient K2 in the body, these proteins will not be fully activated, and thus rendered useless to do their very important jobs.
K2, osteocalcin, and bone health
For years, the protocol for increasing bone mineral density (BMD) and preventing osteoporosis was to take calcium. Then vitamin D was added to the mix. But most of us have been missing possibly the most important nutrient of all. While calcium can help build bone mineral density and vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, they are useless without K2 to activate the osteocalcin that sends the calcium where it needs to go. In fact, low vitamin K2 levels are strongly associated with reductions in BMD and increased risk of fractures, related to inactivation of osteocalcin. K2 also works with vitamin D to inhibit the production of osteoclasts, the cells that break down bone, and encourages apoptosis (normal cell death) of these cells. Research shows that vitamins D and K2 taken together “substantially” reduce bone loss. A number of human studies have confirmed K2’s role in preventing and treating osteoporosis. Studies have found that supplemental K2 can increase spinal and lumbar BMD, significantly reduce the risk of fractures in women with osteoporosis, and increase overall BMD in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. It has also been shown to reduce fractures and increase BMD in osteoporosis associated with Parkinson’s disease, longterm steroid use, anorexia, and those who are bedridden. Vitamin K2 (in the form of MK-4) has been used as an approved treatment for osteoporosis in Japan for nearly two decades.

Supplements and dosing
Before you dash out to buy a bottle of this extraordinary vitamin, it’s important to know the differences between the two main types of K2 supplements – MK-4 and MK7. MK-4 is typically made from an extract from the tobacco plant and has a shorter half-life (it doesn’t stay in the body as long). To be effective, it must be taken in several doses, divided throughout the day. Forty-five mg a day is a typical therapeutic dose. MK-7 is sourced from natto and has a very long half-life – a single daily dose provides higher and more stable blood levels of K2. However, if you have an allergy to soy, MK-4 is a better choice. An effective daily dose is 120 mcg. A 2007 study revealed that the majority of “apparently healthy” individuals have substantial levels of inactivated osteocalcin and MGP, indicating a K2 deficiency. There is no established recommended intake of K2, but studies have found that as little as 45 mcg daily is associated with a reduction in arterial calcification and cardiovascular mortality. Much of the research on vitamin K2 is still in its infancy and there is still a great deal to be learned, but as we saw with vitamin D, we do know that a large number of us are deficient. As research continues to uncover the true value of this fat-soluble vitamin, now is the time to fuel up your K2 tank!

The Rotterdam Heart Study, one of the first large-scale population-based studies that looked at the connection between K2 and heart disease, revealed that subjects who consumed the largest amounts of vitamin K2 in their diet experienced a 57 percent reduction in death from heart disease compared to people who consumed the least amount. They also had less calcium buildup in the aorta. The amount of K2 that was associated with the lowest risk of heart attack and aortic calcification was only around 33 mcg a day.

to the appropriate places in the body, matrix gla protein (MGP) acts as the clean-up crew, sweeping calcium away from those places it doesn’t belong, including the vascular system. According to Kate Rheaume-Bleue, vitamin K2 expert, “vitamin K2-activated MGP is the strongest inhibitor of tissue calcification presently known.” MGP is also able to clear out existing arterial plaque. Using an animal model of atherosclerosis, researchers found that supplemental K2 decreased arterial calcium by about 50 percent and helped to restore arterial elasticity. They also discovered an accumulation of inactivated MGP at the sites of calcification, indicating a K2 deficiency.
