WASHINGTON — Education is supposed to help bridge the gap between the wealthiest people and everyone else. Ask the experts, and they’ll count the ways: Preschool can lift children from poverty. Top high schools prepare students for college. A college degree boosts pay over a lifetime. And the U.S. economy would grow faster if more people stayed in school longer. Plenty of data back them up. But the data also show something else: Wealthier parents have been stepping up education spending so aggressively that they’re widening the nation’s wealth gap. When the Great Recession struck in late 2007 and squeezed most family budgets, the top 10 percent of earners — with incomes averaging $253,146 — went in a different direction: They doubled down on their kids’ futures. Their average education spending per child jumped 35 percent to $5,210 a year during the recession compared

realistic about when it will reopen. It will take a lot longer than that, and it’s going to cost a lot more than they’re saying.” The investigation into the cause of the radiation leak has focused on a burst drum of nuclear waste stored at WIPP that came from Los Alamos National Laboratory. It was highly acidic and contained nitrate salts, organic kitty litter used as absorbent, an acid neutralizer that chemists have since questioned as potentially reactive and a leadladen glove dropped in the mix during treatment of the waste at Los Alamos. A drum with similar composition sits in a subterranean panel at WIPP near where the breach occurred, but that second drum has not ruptured, Whitney said. The investigation into the exact cause of the leak could last until the end of the year, Whitney said. But that didn’t stop the Energy

he U.S. Department of Energy aims to reopen the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant near Carlsbad, at least partially, by April 2016, according to a recovery plan unveiled Tuesday. But full resumption of operations at the underground nuclear waste repository might have to wait up to five years, federal officials said. The estimated cost of bringing WIPP back to life could top $500 million, according to the report. WIPP stopped receiving waste shipments in February when a truck fire followed by a radiation leak happened within days of each other. “DOE is committed to reopening WIPP,” Mark Whitney, the department’s acting assistant secretary of environmental management, told reporters Tuesday. He acknowledged the “aggressive plan” seeks to open the waste storage facility

sooner than many early estimates, which suggested WIPP would be closed until 2017 or beyond. But a nuclear watchdog that closely monitors WIPP questioned whether the Energy Department has underestimated the time it will take to resume operations and understated the cost. “Thirty-five years ago, DOE was saying WIPP was going to be open by the mid-’80s. Then 25 years ago, in the late ’80s, they were saying WIPP was going to be open in the early ’90s, and it didn’t open until 1999,” said Don Hancock, director of the nuclear waste safety program at the Southwest Research and Information Center. “They weren’t realistically looking at what it was going to take to open WIPP then, and now they’re not being

As Hong Kong holiday looms, protesters and officials appeal to silent majority

Protesters rally Tuesday outside the government complex in Hong Kong. Demonstrators have called for a big showing Wednesday, the first day of a big two-day holiday.

The Washington Post

HONG KONG — On the eve of what could be the biggest turnout yet in Hong Kong’s continuing protests, and a crucial test of wills on both sides, a demonstration that began with physical confrontation between authorities and prodemocracy demonstrators shifted Tuesday into a public relations duel aimed at the mass of undecided residents here. Three days into protests that have brought whole swaths of the city to a standstill, both sides appeared to be carefully plotting their next move. Some pro-democracy leaders demanded a meeting with Hong Kong’s leader and threatened new acts of civil disobedience if unmet. The actors in Wednesday’s drama will be the protesters and authorities of Hong Kong, but the Chinese leadership will be follow-

Fighting to the end, convicted felon Tommy Rodella refuses to resign as Rio Arriba County sheriff. But that isn’t slowing efforts to replace him. First Judicial District Attorney Angela “Spence” Pacheco on Tuesday petitioned the state District Court to declare that the sheriff’s position automatically became vacant Friday when a fedTommy eral jury found the Rodella 52-year-old lawman guilty of violating an Española man’s civil rights while brandishing a handgun. Rio Arriba County officials, who first asked Rodella to resign as sheriff after his indictment in August, repeated their request Tuesday. But his lawyer said Rodella, whose term runs through the end of the year, won’t step down voluntarily. Carlos Trujillo, a spokesman for Rio Arriba County Manager Tomas Campos, said the county on Friday stopped paying the sheriff’s $56,000 annual salary to Rodella, who remains in federal custody while he awaits sentencing Dec. 26. Trujillo also said the commission is scheduled to meet at 10 a.m. Wednes-

Commission OKs Aamodt water system resolution By Daniel J. Chacón The New Mexican

A divided Santa Fe County Commission approved a resolution Tuesday that establishes policies for the planning, design and construction of the proposed regional water system, which will primarily serve residents of the Pojoaque Valley and four neighboring pueblos. The commission approved the resolution 3-2, with Chairman Daniel “Danny” Mayfield and Robert Anaya casting the dissenting votes. The construction of the regional water system is what Adam Leigland, the county’s public works director, called one of the pillars of an agreement to settle the 45-year-old Aamodt water-rights case aimed at determining the extent of Indian water rights in the valley north of Santa Fe. The settlement, which affects thousands of people, was approved in 2010 by the pueblos, the federal government, the state and the county of Santa Fe. The publicly funded water system is intended to import water from the Rio Grande to replace the pumping

Secret Service chief on hot seat Congress upset over recent security gaffs By Alicia A. Caldwell and Eileen Sullivan The Associated Press

WASHINGTON nder withering criticism from Congress, the director of the Secret Service on Tuesday admitted failures in her agency’s critical mission of protecting the president but repeatedly sidestepped key questions about how a knife-carrying intruder penetrated ring after ring of security before finally being tackled deep inside the White House. Despite the extraordinary lapses in the Sept. 19 incident, Julia Pierson asserted: “The president is safe today.” Hours later, reports emerged of yet another failure in Secret Service protocol, this time in President Barack Obama’s presence. On Sept. 16, an armed federal contractor rode on an elevator with Obama and his security detail while the president was visiting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, the Washington Examiner reported.

WASHINGTON — U.S. presidents like to refer to the White House as “the people’s house,” and over the past two centuries a surprising number of uninvited people have made their way in. Long before the latest fence jumper, the history of White House security breaches was vast and varied. One intruder in a white karate outfit carried in a knife hidden in a Bible; a stranger slipped in to watch a movie with President Franklin D.

Roosevelt; and a pilot crashed his Cessna into the mansion. President Theodore Roosevelt once agreed to see a man who identified himself as “Mr. John Smith” and insisted he had an appointment, even though the president did not recognize him. But after talking with him for a bit, Roosevelt quickly changed his mind. “Take this crank out of here,” he ordered an usher. In the man’s back pocket, it turned out, was a large-caliber pistol. For most of the White House’s history, the grounds have been

followed by a classified, closeddoor briefing. Rep. Chaffetz said afterward: “The more I learn, the more it scares me.” Calm but defensive in testimony before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, Pierson disclosed that shortly before the intruder jumped the fence at least two of her uniformed officers recognized him from an earlier troubling encounter but did not approach him or report his presence to superiors. On Aug. 25, Army veteran Omar J. Gonzalez was stopped while carrying a small hatchet near the fence south of the White House, Pierson said. Weeks later, the same officers observed him on the Pennsylvania Avenue north side but never intervened. Gonzalez later went over the fence, sprinted to the unlocked front door and ran through half the first floor of the White House before being tackled. Members of Congress briefed earlier by the agency apparently weren’t told of the full extent of the breaches. The Secret Service wrongly told The Associated Press that the intruder was not armed. Pierson said there have been six fence-jumpers this year so far, including one just eight days before Gonzalez went over.

Gonzalez, carrying a folding knife, made it over the fence and into the house, charging by a Secret Service agent at the North Portico and running through much of the State Floor before being tackled. Most presidents consider the White House to be the safest fortress for them. None of the four presidents who have been assassinated was killed at the White House.

ington Post reported similar details and added that the man had three convictions for assault and battery. The office of Republican Rep. Jason Chaffetz of Utah, who has helped lead Congress’ investigation, said a whistleblower had provided him the same details. The gun was discovered only because the contractor was questioned after he persisted in taking video of Obama on the elevator, the reports said. The contractor was immediately fired by his employers. A Secret Service official confirmed the incident reported by the newspapers but declined to comment further, citing an ongoing investigation of the event. At the Capitol, Democratic and Republican lawmakers alike expressed the view that the Sept. 19 breach of White House security had blemished the storied agency, and several pressed for an independent inquiry into what went wrong. They were not assuaged by Pierson’s vow that “I’ll make sure that it does not happen again” or by the agency’s own investigation. “I wish to God you protected the White House like you protected your reputation here today,” Democratic Rep. Stephen Lynch told Pierson at a public hearing that was

In brief

Physicians earn millions in murky financial deals

Pharmaceutical and device makers paid doctors roughly $380 million in speaking and consulting fees, with some doctors reaping more than half a million dollars each, during a five-month period in 2013, according to an analysis of new federal data released Tuesday. The data sheds new light on the often murky financial ties between physicians and the health care industry. Other doctors made millions of dollars in royalties from products they had helped develop. In all, drug and device companies made 4.4 million payments to more than half a million health care professionals and teaching hospitals between August and December 2013. The payments add up to about $3.5 billion. The lucrative payments are just some of the findings of the newly available online database, available at cms.gov, which provides one of the most detailed looks at the payments that health care professionals receive from drug and medical device companies. The website also allows consumers to find specific information about their own doctors to determine whether they might have conflicts of interest. While the data has its limits, the website, required by the recent federal health care law, is part of a broader push for transparency. Proponents say such disclosures are an important tool to help limit pharmaceutical and device makers’ influence on doctors. But the database is being questioned by the drug and device industry, as well as doctors, who say that technical problems and data inaccuracies limit its value. The website is complex, and the initial batch of data comes with significant caveats. Dr. Raed Dweik, a Cleveland Clinic lung specialist, said he was surprised to see that the drugmaker Boehringer Ingelheim had reported that he had received a lunch worth about $50 during a presentation at the clinic. Dweik, who is chairman of the clinic’s conflict of interest committee, said he had spoken at the event but deliberately skipped the lunch. “I’m very sensitive about this,” Dweik said. He disputed the payment with the federal government, and it does not appear in the database. His personal experience, he said, led him to warn other physicians at the Cleveland Clinic to scrutinize their records.

NORMAN, Okla. — An Oklahoma man apparently uttered Arabic words during an attack in which he allegedly severed a co-worker’s head, and had “some sort of infatuation with beheadings,” but the killing appeared to have more to do with the man’s suspension from his job than his recent conversion to Islam. Alton Nolen, 30, could face the death penalty after being charged with first-degree murder in the attack Thursday that authorities say appears to have been an act of revenge for a co-worker’s complaint that got him suspended. The FBI also is investigating the attack, given Nolen’s interest in beheadings and a recent surge in Middle East violence. “There was some sort of infatuation with beheadings,” Cleveland County Prosecutor Greg Mashburn said. “Other than that, it seemed to be related to his being suspended earlier in the day.” Mashburn said the human resources department at the Vaughan Foods plant in Moore had suspended Nolen earlier Thursday after another co-worker, Traci Johnson, had complained she had had an altercation with Nolen “about him not liking white people.”

PayPal to tie with eBay competitors NEW YORK — PayPal’s impending split from longtime partner eBay Inc. will ratchet up its appeal to online retail competitors such as Amazon.com and give it the freedom to aggressively take on new mobile pay challenger Apple Pay.

CEO John Donahoe, who had been adamant in spurning activist investor Carl Icahn’s call months ago to spin off PayPal.

With quick and coordinated action by some of its top doctors, Nigeria, Africa’s most populous country, appears to have contained its first Ebola outbreak, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday. As the epidemic rages out of control in three nations a few hundred miles away, Nigeria is the only country to have an outbreak with hundreds of potential victims in a city with vast, teeming slums and yet to beat it back. “For those who say it’s hopeless, this is an antidote — you can control Ebola,” said Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, director of the CDC. Although officials are pleased that success was achieved in a country of 177 million that is a major transport and business hub — and whose largest city, Lagos, has 21 million people — the lessons here are not easily applicable to the countries at the epicenter: Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. Nigeria’s outbreak grew from a single airport case, while in the three other countries the disease smoldered for months in remote rain-forest provinces. Ebola, Frieden said, “won’t blow over — you have to make a rapid, intense effort.” While the danger in Nigeria is not over, the health minister, Dr. Onyebuchi Chukwu, said that his country was now better prepared, with six laboratories able to make

diagnoses and response teams and isolation wards ready in every major state. After the first patient — a dying LiberianAmerican — flew into Lagos on July 20, Ebola spread to 20 other people there and in a smaller city, Port Harcourt. They have all now died or recovered, and the cure rate — 60 percent — was unusually high for an African outbreak. Meanwhile, local health workers paid 18,500 face-to-face visits to repeatedly take the temperatures of nearly 900 people who had contact with them. The last confirmed

case was detected on Aug. 31, and virtually all contacts have passed the 21-day incubation period without falling ill. The success was in part the result of an emergency command center financed in 2012 by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to fight polio. As soon as the outbreak began, it was turned into the Ebola Emergency Operations Center. Nigeria’s success shows how important advance preparation is, said Frieden. “Some countries that could well be the next Lagos still don’t have a clue about how to deal with this.”

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, cast the agreement as a key step in completing the U.S. mission in Afghanistan. “This is what should have happened in Iraq, and it’s essential that the Obama administration does not repeat the same mistakes that it made there,” he said. The agreement provides a legal framework for the United States to keep about 9,800 troops in Afghanistan to train, advise and assist that country’s national security forces after the current international combat mission ends Dec. 31. Obama announced earlier this year that he would cut the number of troops in half by the end of 2015 and leave only about 1,000 in a security office after the end of 2016, as his presidency comes to a close. The Afghan government also is expected to sign an agreement this week with NATO that would outline the parameters for 4,000 to 5,000 additional international troops — mostly from Britain, Germany, Italy and Turkey — to stay in Afghanistan. U.S. military officials say al-Qaida is in “survival mode” in Afghanistan afte 13 years of war, but that if all international forces left, the terrorist network would see it as a victory, regroup and use the region to conduct operations against the West.

Kurds claim advances in Iraq as Britain joins fray By Vivian Salam and Ryan Lucas The Associated Press

SALHIYAH, Iraq — Kurdish fighters in northern Iraq captured a border crossing with Syria on Tuesday, expelling Islamic State militants in heavy fighting that ground down to vicious house-to-house combat and close quarters sniping. In neighboring Syria, Kurdish militiamen were on the defensive as the extremists pressed ahead with a relentless assault on a town near the Turkish border. The attack on Kobani, also known as Ayn Arab, has driven more than 160,000 people across the frontier in the past few days. Iraqi Kurdish fighters, known as peshmerga, were doing the bulk of the fighting on the ground as a U.S.-led coalition carried out an aerial assault against the Islamic State group in both Iraq and Syria. Britain joined the air campaign Tuesday, carrying out its first strikes against the extremists in Iraq

— though it does not plan to expand into Syria. The goal of the campaign is to push back the militant group that has declared a self-styled caliphate, or Islamic state, ruled by its brutal interpretation of Islam in territory it has seized across much of Iraq and Syria. On Tuesday, Kurdish fighters in Iraq said they saw some of the heaviest fighting yet. Peshmerga spokesman Halgurd Hekmat told The Associated Press the Kurds seized the border crossing of Rabia, which the extremists captured in their blitz across Iraq over the summer. Rami Abdurrahman, the director of the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, also said the Kurds had retaken the border post. He said Syrian Kurdish militiamen had helped in the fight. Kurds wounded in the fighting were brought to a makeshift clinic in the town of Salhiyah, where dusty and exhausted, they described savage battles, with militants sniping at them

from inside homes and from the windows of a hospital in Rabia. In Britain’s first airstrikes of the campaign, two Tornado jets hit a heavy weapons post and an armored vehicle being used by the militants to attack Kurdish forces, British Defense Secretary Michael Fallon said in London. In Washington, Pentagon

spokesman Navy Rear Adm. John Kirby said the U.S. and its coalition partners conducted 20 strikes in Iraq and Syria.

WIPP: Ventilation, exhaust upgrades needed Continued from Page A-1 Department from announcing its plans for WIPP’s future. “If we learn additional things in that last [investigation] report that cause us to change course or do things slightly different, of course we will do that,” Whitney said. Without knowing the cause of the leak, the extent of the contamination in the WIPP caverns or whether more breached drums may be lurking in the cavern, Hancock said the Energy Department’s recovery plan could be premature. “Nowhere in the report does it say the fire and radiation leak that happened this year will never happen again,” Hancock said. Hancock said he favors an independent technical investigation and public study to develop a path forward at WIPP that is disconnected from the Energy Department and its contractor operating WIPP, Nuclear Waste Partnership. “They’re saying, ‘Trust us with the safety standards. We’ll define what’s safe or not.’ That’s not acceptable,” he said. “We don’t trust them. They’ve shown themselves not to be trustworthy.” Getting WIPP fit to resume even preliminary activities by early 2016 will cost an estimated $240 million, and plans to install a new ventilation system and exhaust shaft that would accommodate more belowground work in the salt beds could cost up to $309 million more, according to the recovery plan. Hancock described the cost estimate outlined in the plan as “dishonest” because it neglects to mention the more than $150

million in operating expenses at WIPP for the fiscal year ahead, when even the most optimistic estimates envision WIPP will remain mothballed. Full-scale resumption of waste placement at WIPP can happen only after the ventilation and exhaust improvements are made, according to the plan. That could be as far out as 2019, Whitney said, but he was reluctant to commit to a firm deadline. “I don’t want to get into establishing artificial deadlines,” he said. Hancock said the Energy Department’s goal of partially reopening WIPP within the next 18 months would be virtually impossible if the department were to follow standard regulatory protocol for the waste dump, which includes public comment on the proposed changes. “It’s not a recovery plan, it’s a shut-outthe-public plan,” Hancock said. “That’s not going to happen. The public is not going to be shut out of this process. It’s a nonstarter.” New Mexico Environment Department spokesman Jim Winchester confirmed that the state agency, which has permitting authority over WIPP, had received the Energy Department’s recovery plan. “It is too early to comment on the substance of the proposal,” Winchester said. “The plan will be reviewed and evaluated by NMED technical staff.” Under the recovery plan, waste generated by contamination at WIPP that resulted from the February radiation leak is first in line to be processed and stored at the repository when it resumes operation. Whitney said nuclear waste from decades of nuclear weapons production that is

backing up at sites around the nation, such as Los Alamos, will be assessed and prioritized for shipment to the tomb next. In addition to the physical changes, the plan recommends decontamination of the underground facilities at WIPP, fortifying the stability of the salt beds, and developing a safety plan that assures a safer and more appropriate response than the reaction to the February emergencies. The department’s Accident Investigation Board identified numerous failures in its assessment of the response. The recovery plan also calls for systemic improvements, such as better training of the WIPP workforce and more attention to regulatory compliance. Whitney said the recovery report and the accident investigations that informed it spotlight the need for waste to be handled more safely “from the time it starts at a generator site until it’s placed at WIPP.” In a joint statement Tuesday, U.S. Sens. Tom Udall and Martin Heinrich, both New Mexico Democrats, embraced the Energy Department’s path forward for WIPP and pledged to support funding for the recovery plan. “This is a reasonable framework for moving forward,” the statement said. “It incorporates recommendations from the Accident Investigation Board to improve operations and lays the groundwork to reinstate a culture in which safety is the top priority.” Contact Patrick Malone at 986-3017 or pmalone@sfnewmexican.com.

Resolution: Mayfield, Anaya vote against Continued from Page A-1 of various existing wells in the valley. However, not all non-Indian residents affected by the plan are happy with the idea. “Federal law says that the design [of the regional water system] has to be completed by November of 2017, and the system has to be physically complete by 2024, so there’s some milestones that have to be met for the design and construction of the regional water system,” Leigland said. “There are a number of tracks that have to be done,” he added. “It could be perceived that making decisions about the design of the system now is putting the cart before the horse. … But in order to meet these statutory milestones, we need to have a design complete by November 2017.” Anaya said there are still too many unanswered questions about the project, from costs to “transition details” about who will operate the system after the federal Bureau of Reclamation completes construction. “I want to say this is the third timeline that I’ve had to vote on … associated with this project in the last three years, and every single one has been, ‘Well, you have to do it,’ ” Anaya said. “Well, frankly I don’t have to do anything but make sure I represent the interests of District 3 and make sure that before I advance a recommendation or decision, that I fully and consciously am comfort-

able and understand, and that those people affected understand what’s going to happen,” he said. “We don’t have that in this particular situation.” Commissioner Kathy Holian said she recognized that there were a number of issues to resolve. But she said it is important to move forward because the system would be a “significant new source” of water for the Pojoaque Valley. “As we speak, the Bureau of Reclamation has started to design the system, so I think it’s really vital for the county to be involved in this design process to represent the interests of all of the people who live in the valley, not just the pueblos,” she said. “What we are talking about here tonight is not what the final system will look like exactly or how it will be managed,” she said. “But what we are talking about are what are our principles are as far designing the system as we go forward in the future. We’re just talking about our principles.” The unanswered questions cannot be resolved until the outline of the design is in place, she said. The county resolution provides guidance on five overarching categories: service connections, operation and maintenance costs, fire protection, interoperability with other county water systems and construction costs. According to the resolution and a memo from Leigland:

Rodella: Lujan ready to step in

u The design should maximize the number of potential service connections to make connections available to as many households as possible. “However, these interests must be balanced with the costs of achieving them.” u Operation and maintenance costs should be kept to a minimum, which may result in higher capital costs initially. For example, all the pump stations could have solar panels, which would require an upfront investment but generate savings over the long run. u The county recommends incorporating fire protection features, such as hydrants, where “economically feasible.” u The project should be designed with interoperability in mind with other county water systems. For example, the proposed water system should use the same types of pumps, valves and meters, which would lead to operator consistency and allow for spare parts. u Construction costs should be kept at a minimum. Examples include “opting for the bare minimum in structures such as pump houses or water tanks, or relaxing the standards for road cut repair.” However, “this policy should be the lowest priority” of the five identified in the resolution.

Appeal: Protesters stay polite, organized

day to “discuss and decide on the best option moving forward.” A 2010 New Mexico Supreme Court ruling in a case involving former state Public Regulation Commission member Carol Sloan found that an elected official automatically forfeits his or her office upon conviction for a felony. And for Rodella, that came Friday, when he was found guilty of two felonies stemming from a March 11 incident in which he violated 26-year-old Michael Tafoya’s civil rights and pulled a gun on the unarmed motorist, then allegedly slammed his badge into Tafoya’s face. In Pacheco’s petition, she asked the court to “formalize the vacancy of the office and allow the County Commissioners to appoint a new sheriff pursuant to the law.” “The Rio Arriba County Commissioners are hesitant to take action in recognizing or filling the vacancy, in accordance with their powers … without a Court order or formal interpretation of the law,” Pacheco wrote. Rodella’s lawyer, Robert Gorence, has said repeatedly that Rodella won’t resign. “This is obviously a difficult time for everyone,” Campos, the county manager, said in a statement issued Tuesday. “We want to do this quickly. However, maintaining public safety is our top priority, followed by ensuring this is done correctly.” James Lujan, who defeated Rodella in the June Democratic primary for the nomination as sheriff and faces no opposition in the November general election, has said he is ready to take over the sheriff’s role early. Lujan, a former deputy who was fired by Rodella, said he plans to be at the Wednesday meeting, where he expects commissioners will appoint him as sheriff. Capt. Quintin McShan, a spokesman for the Rio Arriba County Sheriff’s Office, said Undersheriff Vince Crespin has been acting as sheriff while Maj. Matt Vigil is handling the undersheriff’s duties. Rodella earned state pension benefits through his previous employment as a state police officer. His recent conviction won’t affect his ability to collect those benefits, said Susan Pittard, general counsel for the Public Employees Retirement Association for New Mexico. The Associated Press has reported that Rodella retired from the state police agency on a disability pension in 1995 after 13 years. Pittard said Rodella opted out of the public pension system during his time as a county magistrate and as sheriff.

“Occupy Central founders had said repeatedly that if the movement is getting out of control, they would call for it to stop,” Leung said. “I’m now asking them to fulfill the promise they made to society and stop this campaign immediately.” Leung acknowledged the protests were likely to continue. “They have set up a lot of resource centers and even first aid points,” he pointed out in a televised statement. “So we know that [the protest] … is not a matter of days, but it will last for a relatively long time.” Organizers hope the protests will significantly grow in numbers and momentum as Hong Kong takes two days off for the holiday Wednesday and Thursday, making it possible for hundreds of thousands of workers to join. If big crowds fail to turn up, it could sap the momentum of the demonstrations. In his statements, Leung tried to appeal to Hong Kong residents’ practical natures, painting the protests as not just a nuisance but an out-of-control movement that is hurting Hong Kong’s image and its economy. “Its impact on the people’s daily lives, their personal safety in the event of emergencies, the city’s economic development, as well as the cost on its international image, will also grow bigger and bigger,” he said Meanwhile, demonstrators tried to make inroads of their own with smaller gestures, not just picking up trash from the

night before but sorting it for recycling, distributing umbrellas to fend off brief showers and passing out donated food and water among themselves. By protesting, activists are trying to force Beijing’s communist leaders to abandon newly declared powers to weed out any candidates in the upcoming Hong Kong election for Leung’s successor. And the cordial nature of the protests has perhaps been their most distinctive quality. In putting a strong emphasis on the “civil” part of their civil disobedience, protesters are trying to sway large portions of the public that until recently have remained on the fence about an occupation of Hong Kong’s allimportant financial district. But their behavior is also an expression of modern Hong Kong society’s quirks, in which citizens are obsessed with efficiency, often finicky about following regulations and take seriously social responsibility and courtesies. That mix over the past few days has yielded surprising and at times incongruous images of politely raucous demonstrations. At points where their occupation has diverted traffic, some protesters posted signs pleading for understanding and explaining why they were protesting. Volunteers positioned themselves with makeshift ladders to help people cross uneven areas of the protest site. Nursing students taped homemade red crosses on their sleeves as they ran first aid stations. Some students could be seen doing homework as they sprawled out on the streets.

Education wealth gap widens in recession The top 10 percent of earners accelerated spending on their kids’ education during the recession, while spending by the bottom 90 percent remained ﬂat, according to a study.

Gap: Pay is surging for SAT tutors Continued from Page A-1 with the two preceding years — and they sustained that faster pace through the recovery. For the remaining 90 percent of households, such spending averaged around a flat $1,000, according to research by Emory University sociologist Sabino Kornrich. “People at the top just have so much income now that they’re easily able to spend more on their kids,” Kornrich said. The sums being spent by wealthier parents amount to a kind of calculated investment in their children. Research has linked the additional dollars to increased SAT scores, a greater likelihood of graduating from college and the prospect of future job security and high salaries. The trend emerged gradually over the past three decades but accelerated during the worst economic slump since the 1930s. Now, enrollments at pricier private schools are climbing. Parents are bidding up home prices in top public school districts. Pay is surging for SAT tutors, who now average twice the median U.S. hourly wage of $24.45. The patterns suggest that the wealth gap could widen in coming years, analysts say. “If you’re at the bottom and the top keeps pulling away, you’re just further behind,” said Melissa Kearney, a senior economics fellow at the Brookings Institution. Between 2007 and 2011, enrollment at private elementary and secondary schools whose annual tuition averaged $28,340 — more than half the median U.S. household income — jumped 36 percent, according to federal data. The intensified reach for the costliest schools occurred even as enrollment in private schools overall fell. “What we know about parents who send their kids to private school is that by and large they place a very high priority on education,” said John Chubb, president of the National Association of Independent Schools. “As prices go up, they may be frustrated and angry, but they find a way to make it work.” Most families can’t compete. Incomes have barely budged for most Americans since 1980 after accounting for inflation. For the top 10 percent, IRS data show pay has jumped 80 percent after inflation. For the top 1 percent, it has soared 177 percent. The education divide has grown despite the multidecade presence of Head Start, the federal program for nutrition and early childhood education. Most states rely primarily on a private preschool system that can reinforce the wealth gap, said Sean Reardon, a Stanford University professor who has studied education and income inequality. Head Start-backed programs “alone are insufficient to close these gaps,” Reardon said. Among those spending more is Marisela MartinezCola’s family. A suburban Atlanta mother, MartinezCola sends her 7-year-old son to private school and has hired a tutor to improve his reading — expenses made possible by her husband’s salary as a regional buyer for Costco Wholesale. “Fortunately, for us, it’s not a choice between him and groceries,” she said. The disparities in education spending emerge practically at birth. A family earning $39,360

spent an average of $2,070 per child for preschool and day care last year, the government reported. Families earning $186,460 spent $5,370 — 159 percent more than lower-income families. Wealthier parents can also afford high-quality day care, which better prepares children for kindergarten, said Steven Barnett, director at the National Institute for Early Education Research. Many also pay a premium to live in top public school districts. Homes in top-rated school zones command a 32 percent premium over the national average, real estate data firm Trulia has found. The real estate brokerage Redfin has found that homes in top districts sell faster than others and are more likely to incite bidding wars. In Alexandria, Va., a 3,000-squarefoot home near a highly ranked school sold last year for $920,000 — $130,000 more than a similar home less than a mile away with an average-rated school. One family with four children bought a small threebedroom ranch home in late 2012 to land a spot in the prestigious New Trier School District in Chicago’s North Shore suburbs, said David Yocum, a Redfin real estate agent. The house drew roughly 25 offers and sold for $341,500. The successful buyers then added a second floor for more space. “Every couple I work with in the North Shore is looking for homes that will get their kids into the right schools,” Yocum said. On top of that, there are the tutors. An average SAT tutor advertised through WyzAnt charges $51.20 an hour. Prices since 2012 have risen twice as fast as average wages tracked by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The disparity in spending patterns creates a hurdle for reducing income inequality through additional education — the preferred solution of many economists. An August report by Standard & Poor’s said higher educational achievement would fuel faster economic growth and help shrink income disparities. Thomas Piketty, the French economist whose exploration of tax data helped expose the wealth gap, has argued that education “is the most powerful equalizing force in the long run.” Affluent parents tend to get what they pay for: Their children score 125 points higher on SATs than those from the poorest homes, up from a gap of 90 points during the 1980s, according to research by Reardon, the Stanford professor. Separate research shows their children are more likely to attend and complete college. Afterward, they have better access to higher-paying careers, Reardon said. Some middle-income parents have come to feel that personal sacrifices are an acceptable price for giving their child a potential edge. “You pay now vs. paying later,” said Tysha WheelerTimmons of Rahway, N.J. A contract coordinator for a pharmaceutical company, Wheeler-Timmons earns modest pay. But she took a part-time security job to pay for $3,000 in tutoring for her daughter, Shayla, a high school senior aiming for an Ivy League bioengineering degree. She feels she has no choice. “I’ve been able to get a decent job, even though I don’t have a college education,” she said. “We’re the last generation to do that.”

JAPAN ERUPTION

Hikers’ fates a matter of luck on volcano By Mari Yamaguchi

TOKYO uge boulders falling from the sky. Billowing gray smoke that cast total darkness over the mountain. Volcanic ash piling on the ground and fumes filling the air. Some survivors of the eruption of Mount Ontake made a split-second decision to hide behind big rocks or escaped into lodges that dot the mountain’s slopes. At least 36 people were killed in Saturday’s surprise eruption. For survivors such as mountain guide Sayuri Ogawa, it was a near-death experience. The eruption caught hikers by surprise. One moment, the hikers were enjoying the panoramic view at 10,000 feet above sea level. The next moment, they were scrambling for shelter and running for their lives. Ogawa, 43, was near the summit by herself, rehearsing an upcoming tour she was to escort. She was just starting the “bowl tour” around the crater when she heard an explosion, something like the noise of big fireworks, right above her head. “I couldn’t breathe, and rocks kept falling down like rain,” she said. “I thought I was going to die.” What must have been a few minutes seemed like forever. Then she felt a cool breeze in

her face and could breathe. She moved to a place with better protection, ducking between two big rock formations where only part of her right leg was exposed. Ontake Summit lodge owner Tatsuo Arai, 70, knew the right escape. He was in town for shopping when the eruption occurred but remotely instructed two of his younger staff. About 40 people took refuge at Arai’s lodge. Speaking briefly to save phone batteries, he gave crucial advice that probably saved dozens of lives: Avoid the area known as “Haccho darumi” near one of the craters, because he was worried about gasses. A sixth sense seemed to help Hidenari Hayashi, a tour guide specializing in the central Japan mountains. His group of about 40 hikers who are mostly senior citizens, started early and by midmorning they had left the summit. But walking around the crater, he noticed an unusually strong smell of sulfur. Some of the hikers in his group complained about headaches from the gas. Just as a cable car carrying his group departed the station closest to the summit, an explosion sounded, which Hayashi thought was thunder at first. “If we were two hours later, we were the first ones to have been hit,” Hayashi said. “I’m grateful I’m still alive.”

Newsmakers Winfrey and Belafonte honored by Harvard

Harry Belafonte

Shonda Rhimes

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Oprah Winfrey and performer-activist Harry Belafonte were among those honored at Harvard University on Tuesday at its annual celebration of African American culture. The university’s Hutchins Center for African and African American Research presented its annual W.E.B. Du Bois Medals to eight people at the ceremony, also including British architect David Adjaye, civil rights hero U.S. Rep John Lewis, D-Ga.; 12 Years a Slave director Steve McQueen, Grey’s Anatomy and Scandal creator Shonda Rhimes and movie producer Harvey Weinstein. The medal has been awarded since 2000 and is Harvard’s highest honor in the field of African and African American Studies. Winfrey also accepted a posthumous award for author and poet Maya Angelou, who she has called a mentor. Belafonte recalled his days in the civil rights movement with figures such as Martin Luther King Jr. and actor Paul Robeson. W.E.B. Du Bois, a scholar who founded the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, was born in Great Barrington, Mass., and graduated from Harvard. The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — The average TV binge viewer is indulging in catch-up. When Anna Gunn dove headlong into the British crime drama Broadchurch, it was homework. Gunn stars as police Detective Ellie Miller in Fox’s Gracepoint, an adaptation of the moodily gripping U.K. series that’s been uprooted from a seaside English town to a Northern California one that’s more scenic but no less fraught with pain. The actress, who won two Emmy Awards for Breaking Bad, is part of the makeover, one that stopped short of swapping out leading man David Tennant as a tough but troubled police detective. Gunn, 46, is a native of Santa Fe and a graduate of Santa Fe Preparatory School. She said she fell “head over heels” for the emotionally layered drama about a boy’s murder and the distrust and

anger it unleashes in a placid community. She did fret about how Tennant would respond to her replacing Broadchurch star Olivia Coleman as his mismatched police partner. (Tennant and Coleman are paired again in Season 2 of Broadchurch, airing next year on BBC America.) “At the very beginning I said, ‘Do you feel you’re cheating? Does it feel odd?’ ” Gunn recalled. “He said, ‘It really doesn’t. It feels like a whole new thing.’ ” That’s how its executive producers, including Anya Epstein, looked at Fox’s remake of Broadchurch. It received a prestigious Peabody Award (for its “pitchperfect take on the classic crime drama”), but the nearly 1 million average weekly viewers that watched it on BBC America, while solid for the channel, means most U.S. viewers are unfamiliar with the “amazing” series, Epstein said. Gracepoint debuts at 7 p.m. MDT Thursday.

The West’s oldest newspaper, founded 1849 Robin M. Martin Owner

COMMENTARY: ROBERT MCCARTNEY

Professor: No slurs in team names

ohn Banzhaf III has an impressive record of making a nuisance of himself on behalf of noble causes. The George Washington University law professor played a leading role in pushing cigarette advertising off television and radio in 1970. Improved safety standards for school buses. Blocked dry cleaners from charging women more than men for laundering their shirts. Now Banzhaf has focused his sights on a new, highprofile target — the name of Washington’s professional football franchise — and team owner Dan Snyder has grounds to worry. Banzhaf has opened a useful new legal front in the swelling campaign to pressure Snyder to change the name. He has filed one legal petition and threatened more to block renewal of federal broadcast licenses for radio and TV stations that routinely use the team’s name on the air. That would include almost every broadcast outlet in the country. Banzhaf’s argument: The team name is a racial slur, offensive to many Native Americans, so airing it is against the public interest. He says the term violates Federal Communications Commission standards against indecency, profanity and hate speech. If the FCC could make a huge fuss with CBS for briefly exposing Janet Jackson’s nipple during the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show, Banzhaf says, then it ought to be able to use its weight to push an offensive term off the airwaves. “Despite whatever the origins of the word ‘R*skins’ may be, or the original intent of the owner who first gave the team its name, the evidence is now overwhelming that the current meaning is an offensive demeaning racial swear word, not only to many Indians, but also others,” Banzhaf wrote in

Justice comes for Rio Arriba

T a Sept. 2 FCC filing. Banzhaf’s cause got a rhetorical boost two weeks ago when FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler denounced the team’s name. He is the second member of the five-person FCC to express concern over it. “I don’t use the term personally, and I think it is offensive and derogatory,” Wheeler told Broadcasting & Cable, a trade publication. Wheeler urged Snyder to change the name on his own, without formal FCC action, because it was the right thing to do. “I hope that this is something that if enough people express themselves, Dan Snyder can see which way things are going,” Wheeler said. In going to the FCC, Banzhaf is following a strategy similar to the one he used against tobacco ads as a young lawyer in the late 1960s. He filed an action requiring broadcast companies to give free time for anti-smoking messages. It’s hard to know what the FCC would ultimately decide about the Washington football

team’s name. There’s little or no precedent for such a ruling. But Banzhaf’s effort has lots of potential to create headaches for broadcast stations, which in turn can put pressure on the team and the National Football League. The FCC typically grants broadcast license renewals within four months. But even a whiff of legal opposition can cause considerable delays. “In practice, anything that’s filed against a license renewal application tends to add at least six months to the process, and often two or three years, or more,” said John Garziglia, a Washington-based communications law attorney. The stations can continue to operate while the renewal is on hold. But delay can make it difficult for an owner to sell a station or get loans. Broadcasters enjoy First Amendment safeguards for free speech. But Garziglia said the stations’ dependence on the federal licenses makes them vulnerable to public pressure. “Stations should probably take a second look at using words that large segments of

the population think are offensive,” he said. Banzhaf is not the first to recognize that the FCC might be a tool to push for a name change. Former FCC chairman Reed Hundt and 11 other top communications law experts wrote Snyder last year warning him the name might run afoul of FCC guidelines. But Banzhaf is apparently the first to take action with the FCC. His Sept. 2 filing aimed to block renewal of the license for WWXX (94.3 FM), a Snyder-owned radio station in Prince William County. The activist has also sent formal notices to four major Los Angeles TV stations warning that he plans similar filings against them. Banzhaf said his filings “hang like a sword of Damocles over the stations.” A man who defeated the tobacco industry deserves to be taken seriously.

Take precautions when going on hikes

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

hanks for the article (“Risks of the wild,” Aug. 9). It made very important suggestions. More than 20 years of hiking these mountains, I have learned some lessons from experience. To the suggestions in the article, I would add a few more tips. Never hike alone. Parties of at least three are best. If one gets injured, another can stay with the injured person and the other can go for help. Do not rely on a cellphone. Many areas have no reception. In addition to the articles mentioned, carry a wool sweater and a black garbage bag. In a cold rain, head and arm holes can be cut out of the bag and the bag slipped over rain gear for extra warmth. It’s amazing the difference that makes. Do not wear cotton. Wear nylon, wool or polyester. Wool retains much of its insulating value when wet, and these fabrics dry quickly. Cotton holds water, loses insulating value when wet and dries very slowly.

he conviction of Rio Arriba County Sheriff Tommy Rodella on two charges in federal court last week is sobering. A jury decided that Rodella was guilty on a civil rights charge for making an unconstitutional arrest and on a firearms charge for pointing a gun during the encounter. He faces up to 17 years in federal prison. For the U.S. Attorney’s Office, the prosecution was swift and sure. The chase and arrest took place last March, when the sheriff was in his private car and did not identify himself as he and his son sped after a driver. Rodella caught up with driver Michael Tafoya, 26, who said he feared for his life as he was pulled from the car and wrestled to the ground. Tafoya said he did not know the armed man who was after him was the sheriff until Rodella threw his badge in the man’s face, testimony claimed. Rodella is no stranger to controversy over his long career, whether getting in trouble at the state police for smoking marijuana, falsifying reports and abusing sick leave, getting pushed out of his job as magistrate judge, or his more recent troubles as sheriff. The people of Rio Arriba County should be embarrassed that they elected Rodella after his well-chronicled misdeeds — and he only lost re-election in the June primary by 200 votes. Voters must demand better from elected officials. The sheriff and his supporters claim that U.S. Attorney Damon Martinez is targeting Rodella because the sheriff won’t deputize U.S. Forest Service agents to enforce state laws in Rio Arriba County — they believe this is nothing less than payback, and despite the conviction, we expect Rodella to continue to exhaust his appeals. The U.S. Attorney’s Office, though, should be commended for investigating Tafoya’s charges and proceeding to trial. People in Rio Arriba County should not be in fear of their sheriff, and several other motorists also came forward to describe chilling encounters with the lawman. Where critics have a point, though, is in asking why Rodella was prosecuted so swiftly when none of the police officers who have shot and killed civilians — often in questionable circumstances — has been charged with any federal crimes. If beating up a motorist is a violation of civil rights, shooting someone dead most certainly qualifies. We trust that Martinez, as U.S. attorney, is keeping a close eye on the Albuquerque Police Department. Citizens need to trust and respect police officers and the justice system. We are encouraged that a sheriff’s misdeeds are held to account by the law. Now, let’s see other police officers who abuse their power face justice.

A fall food drive

unger is a year-round concern, even though food drives generally pick up steam around the holidays. To kick off fall, the Stuff the Truck citywide food drive started last week, continuing through Nov. 15 to raise 10,000 pounds of food for those who need it. Donations will be collected and weighed by the Food Depot. To support the drive, people can drop off food to more than 38 locations around town. Participants have decorated cardboard trucks to display at each location (there’s a donations drop-off at The New Mexican, 202 E. Marcy St.) and the drive is sponsored by Furry’s Sierra Santa Fe Buick GMC. The first contest, to pick the best-looking truck, was won by Coronado Paint and Truck. Besides the trucks, special events are on tap to highlight the food drive. The first will be at Smith’s, 2308 Cerrillos Road, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Nov. 1, and the second at the Wal-Mart Supercenter, 5701 Herrera Drive, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Nov. 15. The Food Depot — with a simple mission to end hunger in Northern New Mexico — gathers surplus food from individuals and businesses, stores the goods and then distributes the food through 135 partner agencies serving a geographic area of 26,000 square miles. It’s a big job — hunger remains a persistent problem in New Mexico, with 1 in 3 children and 1 in 5 adults estimated to face food insecurity. Nearly 40,000 New Mexicans each week seek food assistance, according to Food Depot statistics. That means a lot of our neighbors go hungry. By joining our forces as a community — whether through Stuff the Truck or other efforts — we can make a difference right here at home.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Girlfriend is not a good mom to girl Dear Annie: I love my in-laws to pieces, but it bothers me that they are too nice. No one who lives in their household pays for anything. When my husband and I lived with them, we always helped out, but now that we’ve moved on, my in-laws are having a hard time paying the bills. But they won’t ask any of their kids to fork over. My brother-in-law’s girlfriend lives in the house, and they have a daughter together. Right now, my brother-in-law is in jail, and the mother barely cares for her daughter. Either my in-laws do it, or my husband and I take over her care. The girlfriend often leaves the house with no notice, sometimes in the middle of the night, and never bothers to feed her little girl. She has no job and has two kids by other fathers whom she also doesn’t take care of. When we criticize this, she threatens to take her daughter away. I’m getting tired of this. We love this child. Can the mother really take her away? I want to call Child Protective Services, but my in-laws say absolutely not. What should I do? — Concerned Daughter-in-law Dear Concerned: Would your in-laws (or you) petition for custody of this child? When Child Protective Services investigates (reporting can be done anonymously) and finds cause to remove the child from the home, the best placement is often with other relatives. This could turn out to be you. We cannot promise that the mother won’t run off with the girl, although she seems more likely to run off alone. Please discuss this possibility with your husband and his parents. We hope they are willing to take the necessary steps to ensure this child’s future. Dear Annie: Here is an idea for those who have been bothered by people who “over contribute” or dominate the conversation. When we know there will be

such a person at a get-together, we appoint one person to be the designated listener. This person directs the talkative person away from the group and focuses intently on him or her, listening attentively and encouraging them to continue talking. I have been the listener on a few occasions and realize that some folks can’t help themselves. They must talk continuously. Distracting them away from the group makes the evening tolerable. — A Designated Listener Dear Listener: We like the idea of a designated listener, the way someone is a designated driver. As long as you alternate positions and everyone is agreeable when it comes to taking a turn, this is an effective and kind way to include those who need to be at such gatherings but can make the events difficult to endure. Dear Annie: In response to “Wedding Jitters,” I have another reason to get a prenuptial agreement for those marrying later in life. Greedy heirs. My brother’s mother-in-law remarried in her 60s. Soon after, she became incapacitated with a brain tumor, and her spouse suffered severe health issues and entered a nursing home. His children immediately started demanding things. All the lawyer did was shrug and tell them to hope that she died first, but she didn’t. His son and daughter were given half their assets, including those she had clearly kept separate. My sisterin-law had to give them a car and remortgage the house. Their lawyer said domestic disputes of this type are a hopeless nightmare. — Know Better Now Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Santa Fe man charged with 11th DWI Rep. Jeff Police say driver nearly struck officer’s vehicle By Uriel J. Garcia The New Mexican

A Santa Fe man was arrested Sunday morning on what police say is his 11th drunken-driving charge after he was stopped for careless driving. Luis F. Ruiz, 41, told police he was driving fast because his sister was in a hurry to use the restroom. Ruiz, who has gone by at least

seven aliases, has a long history of drunken driving in New Mexico and other states. He is being held at the Santa Fe County jail on a $25,000 bond, online jail Luis F. Ruiz records show. A breath test showed that Ruiz had a blood-alcohol level of 0.16, twice the legal limit. He is facing charges of aggravated DWI, concealing identity, careless driving,

criminal damage to property and having an open container. A probable cause statement says Ruiz was pulled over at about 1:30 a.m. at St. Francis Drive and Roybal Street after he nearly hit an officer’s patrol car with his 2003 Dodge pickup. “I felt the passenger side view mirror brush against my arm,” Santa Fe Officer Patrick Pinson said, according to the probable cause statement. When the officer asked Ruiz if he knew why he was being pulled over, he said his sister, who was a passen-

ger in the vehicle, “was in a hurry to use the toilet,” according to the statement. During the stop, the Mexican native presented the officer with an identification card from Mexico with the name “Fabian Cantu-Alvarez,” the statement says. But the officer was able to determine the man’s identity and his criminal history after running an FBI background check, the statement says, and the officer determined that Ruiz has used various aliases and dif-

ATC buys campus, plans expansion Charter high school gets $4.3M loan; now eligible for SFPS bond funding By Robert Nott The New Mexican

hen Jennifer Ferguson, a biology teacher at the Academy for Technology and the Classics, wants to teach a science lab, she has to reserve a room in advance. Otherwise an event like senior portrait day might take precedence. She dreams of the day when her students can have a real lab with upto-date biology equipment and space for experiments. Her wish will come true now that the charter high school closed a deal Monday to secure a $4.3 million loan from Los Alamos National Bank to purchase the 27,000-square-foot facility, located on 10.5 acres of land on Avan Nu Po Road on the south side of town. The school made a $300,000 down payment and will pay off the rest over the course of a 30-year mortgage with a 4.25 percent interest rate. “You have no idea what a relief it is for us to have a permanent home,” ATC Principal Susan Lumley said Tuesday. “It’s hard to believe that it is over because we worked so long on this.” Monday’s action makes the school a public facility and allows its leaders to be eligible for Santa Fe Public Schools’ general obligation bond funding in 2017 to maintain and renovate the site. The plan is to build a second facility on campus that will house a gym, cafeteria, music room and three science labs. Tannis Fox, president of the school’s Governing Council, said the school can now use $300,000 from the district’s 2012 bond election to implement planning and design of the expansion. The district-chartered school opened in 2000 and moved to its current home in 2007. In 2011, a school district audit revealed numbers problems with the academy’s financial management. The school was having trouble coming up with $45,000 in rent each month to give to the Academy for Technology and the Classics Foundation — a private nonprofit that handles the school’s business affairs — which would pay the rent to the building’s owner, bondholder

Hamlin Management Group of New York. The district temporarily suspended the academy’s charter status until it got back on its financial feet. The district offered up to $215,000 to help the school and restored its charter in May 2012. Hamlin’s leaders

lowered the monthly lease payments with the condition that the school enter into a lease-purchase agreement to eventually buy the property. Senior Sam Lewis, president of the academy’s student body, said Tuesday that the news is beneficial for

everyone involved. He said the lack of cafeteria space leads students to eat off their laps in vacant classrooms or outside. As for the lack of a gym, with the exception of running and basketball, academy students must go elsewhere — including the nearby Institute of American Indian Arts — for athletic practice. Lewis said the expansion also will give students a place to assemble. Right now they use the outdoor basketball court, where “it’s extremely windy. Trying to set up a sound system out there is a nightmare. We are at the whims of the weather forecast.” The school operates on an annual budget of about $2.67 million. It received an A in the state’s A-F grading system this year and was rated one of the best charter schools in the country in a report on charter schools from U.S. News & World Report last spring. That report also named the academy the fourth best charter school in New Mexico. Fox said the school has not yet looked into whether the expansion will increase its budget or staffing needs.

Dem super-PAC spends $345K in AG’s race TV ads greatly boost campaign for Balderas By Sandra Fish New Mexico In Depth

A Democratic super-PAC booked at least $345,350 in TV ads aimed at the New Mexico attorney general’s race last week. In fact, the Committee for Justice and Fairness is outspending the two candidates by nearly $100,000. So far, Democrat Hector Balderas is spending $133,415 and Republican Susan Riedel $120,144 in their race to replace Democrat Gary King, who is running for governor. It’s the first significant ad buy in New Mexico this fall from an outside group. The ads will begin Oct. 9 and

run through Election Day. The Committee for Justice and Fairness is funded by the Democratic Attorneys General Association. Total political ad spending in the state is almost $7 million, with nearly seven straight days of ads aired or scheduled, according to a New Mexico In Depth analysis of political ad contracts filed through Sept. 26 with the Federal Communications Commission. The numbers don’t include cable or satellite ads or radio advertising. Republican Gov. Susana Martinez continues to dominate ad spending, increasing her ad presence by nearly $174,000 last week. King, meanwhile, hasn’t aired TV ads for the last month. Martinez’s spending gives Republicans a $1 million lead in

political ad spending. Incumbent Democratic U.S. Sen. Tom Udall has contracted for about $1.2 million in ads. His challenger, Republican Allen Weh, increased his ad buys by $76,040 last week to almost $447,000. And Democrat Rocky Lara increased her ad contracts by $92,585 last week. She’s challenging GOP incumbent U.S. Rep. Steve Pearce in the 2nd Congressional District. Lara is buying time week by week thus far, while Pearce has ads scheduled through Nov. 3 on most stations.

The Democratic Party of New Mexico, trying to end the political career of one of its own elected officials, filed an ethics complaint Tuesday against state Rep. Sandra Jeff. Jon Lipshutz, the party’s executive director, asked the secretary of state to investigate Jeff on allegations of double billing taxpayers four times for travel expenses last year. Jeff, who has been in office since 2009, was removed from this year’s Democratic primary election ballot by State Rep. the state Supreme Sandra Jeff Court. She did not file the 78 valid signatures necessary to qualify. But Jeff now is running as a writein candidate in hopes of keeping her seat in House District 5, which includes parts of McKinley and San Juan counties. The Democratic Party is supporting newcomer Doreen Johnson, who won the primary in June. No Republican is in the District 5 race, meaning Jeff’s uphill write-in campaign is the only threat to Johnson being elected. Lipshutz and many other Democrats want Jeff out of the Legislature. Republicans would prefer that Jeff remain in office because on occasion she has sided with them on high-profile bills, such as the state budget. Jeff further alienated Democrats and pleased Republicans in February when she refused to vote on a bill to raise the statewide minimum wage to about $8.30 an hour. It’s now $7.50. Jeff, 46, walked off the floor of the House of Representatives as the minimum-wage bill was being debated. This occurred after Vice President Joe Biden had called Jeff to ask her to support the bill. Jeff initially lied about speaking with Biden. But after the bill failed, she publicly admitted that Biden had called to lobby her on the minimum wage. Only after the White House said Biden and Jeff had spoken did she feel free to confirm the call, she said. “She has fallen out of touch with the people of her district who elected her,” Lipshutz said in an interview. Jeff could not be reached for comment Tuesday. She wasn’t at her listed residence in Crownpoint, according to a woman who answered the phone, and the mailbox for Jeff’s mobile phone was full. The Democratic Party made the complaint against Jeff to Secretary of State Dianna Duran based on a review of Jeff’s travel expenses by the advocacy group ProgressNow New

Española students protest food rule 100 walk out over ban on deliveries, eating outside By Robert Nott The New Mexican

About 100 Española Valley High School students staged a one-hour walkout Tuesday to protest enforcement of a policy that prohibits them from having food delivered to campus or eating their lunches outside. The school responded with a lockdown to keep remaining students inside. “It was for the safety of our students. We weren’t sure of the

purpose of the walkout,” said Española Public Schools Superintendent Daniel Trujillo. School officials think two or three students were responsible for orchestrating the protest, which occurred shortly before the usual lunch hour. While no students were immediately suspended, Trujillo said the district will interview the instigators and perhaps one parent Wednesday as part of an investigation. “It was pretty silly — the walkout — in regards to the food situation,” Trujillo said, adding that there were no seri-

Rex Lee Jim had been hospitalized for more than four weeks in Albuquerque. Jim says the spider’s venom spread like wildfire through his lower left leg. He says doctors were able to surgically remove the infection, dead tissue, ligaments and muscles, avoiding leg amputation. Jim says the hospital stay also revealed that he has diabetes. He encouraged Navajos to eat healthy, exercise and get annual checkups. Tribal spokesman Rick Abasta says Jim is recovering with rest and physical therapy. The Associated Press

Angie Saavedra Lopez, a longtime Santa Fe resident, passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family on Sunday, September 28, at Christus St. Vincent Hospital. Angie was the driving force of her family, a rock-solid matriarch exuding strength, compassion and an incredible zest for life. She was an unbelievable mother and best friend to her four children, developing different but equally meaningful bonds with each of them. Blessed with a wealth of generosity, empathy and sense of humor, Angie touched everyone in her life. She was an exemplary wife, sister, aunt, mother-in-law, friend and an especially doting grandmother. She was the shining star who brightened everything and everyone in her path. Angie was born in Albuquerque and raised in the New Mexico communities of Tokay, San Pedro and Socorro. A devout Roman Catholic, she was active with the church and in the community, and made her family especially proud in the mid-1960s when she was honored as the top fund-raiser for the March of Dimes. Her absolute passion was gardening, especially tending to her flowers. She also enjoyed cooking for her family, was an avid horse racing fan and supported her grandchildren in various sporting activities. Angie is survived by her son Walter K. Lopez (Santa Fe); daughter Linda DeBruyn, her husband Ed, son Eddie and daughter KK (Santa Fe); son Pat Lopez, his wife Mari, son Bosco (Santa Fe) and daughter DeAnza (Los Angeles); son Mark Lopez, his wife Catherine, daughters Ariana and Nina and son Dean (Albuquerque); her sister Sarah Vigil (Las Cruces); and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her loving husband Salomon, parents Onesimo and Dominica Saavedra; brother Pete Saavedra and sisters Alva Gonzales, Beatrice Romero and Rosa Peralta. Angie possessed an extraordinary presence and was just as beautiful in death as she was in life. And although she has entered into Our Lord’s heavenly kingdom, her passing has created an irreplaceable void in our lives and she will be dearly missed. A rosary to celebrate Angie’s life will be recited at 7 p.m., Wednesday, October 1, at Berardinelli Mortuary, 1399 Luisa Street, Santa Fe, N.M., (505) 984-8600. A Mass of Christian burial will be held Thursday, October 2, 9 a.m., at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, 1301 Osage Avenue, (505) 983-5034. Interment will follow at Santa Fe National Cemetery at 10:30 a.m. Serving as pallbearers will be Angie’s grandchildren DeAnza Paredes, Eddie DeBruyn, KK DeBruyn, Ariana Lopez, Dean Lopez, Bosco Lopez and Nina Lopez.

According to a December 2008 article in Bloomberg News, CDR was paid to advise the Finance Authority on the purchase of swaps from several companies including New York-based Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co, Royal Bank of Canada in Toronto and UBS AG, the largest bank in Switzerland. At the same time DuVal was with Sí, Se Puede, his company was working for UBS — which also contributed to Richardson’s convention PAC. Despite the fact that UBS in a statement credited DuVal’s company for getting its deal with New Mexico, DuVal told Bloomberg in 2009 that he wasn’t involved, insisting the company’s bankers already had ties with the Richardson administration. “The team, they had a history in New Mexico and were known to everybody,” DuVal told the publication. “I was not called upon to get involved.” DuVal’s company worked in 10 states trying to get bond deals for USB, according to a 2009 article in The Bond Buyer. As for his role in Richardson’s PAC, DuVal told Bloomberg, “My involvement was saying yes to lending my name and nothing after that.” According to the article, DuVal said he “agreed to act as a director on the committee because he thought it may fund voter activity in his home state of Arizona.

Trujillo said the school had not been enforcing the food policy in recent years, and students got accustomed to eating outside. They were leaving a lot of trash on the grounds, he said, and unauthorized people were sometimes coming on campus to deliver food. This year, the school’s new principal, Elizabeth Lucero, decided to enforce the food rule, Trujillo said. The Rio Arriba County Sheriff’s Office allocates one deputy to the school as a resource officer, Trujillo

said. According to the office’s spokesman, Capt. Quintin McShan, no other deputies were sent to back up the officer because “nobody deemed it major.” Española Public Safety Director Richard Gallegos said that while he alerted police officers to the incident, no one from his department responded either. The school has about 1,000 students, Trujillo said. Around the nation, public school students have been staging walkouts and demonstrations to protest changes in history curriculum, a lack of qualified teachers and reorganization of their school districts.

Richardson haunts Ariz. Dem By Steve Terrell The New Mexican

Former Gov. Bill Richardson’s name still gets thrown around a lot by current New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez and her aides as she runs for re-election. And now Richardson’s name has been injected into the gubernatorial race in Arizona in an effort to tar the Democratic candidate there. That candidate, Fred DuVal, was a director of a Richardson PAC in 2004. At the time, he also helped arrange for a Swiss banking firm to get state bond work — a deal that was part of a federal grand jury investigation looking at alleged pay-to-play schemes during Richardson’s tenure as governor. So far, it’s mostly been the conservative press criticizing DuVal’s ties to Richardson. The Washington-based Weekly Standard published an article about it Monday. That story credited an earlier story by The Washington Free Beacon, a conservative publication that specializes in opposition research on Democrats. DuVal, according to polls listed on Real Clear Politics, is virtually tied with Republican Doug Ducey in the race to succeed Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, who did not seek re-election.

According to a December 2008 article in Bloomberg News, CDR was paid to advise the Finance Authority on the purchase of swaps from several companies including New York-based Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co, Royal Bank of Canada in Toronto and UBS AG, the largest bank in Switzerland. At the same time DuVal was with Sí, Se Puede, his company was working for UBS — which also contributed to Richardson’s convention PAC.

At the Kit Carson Memorial Cemetery in Taos, adjacent to the newly renamed park, a streak of paint tarnishes the legendary scout’s name on a historic marker. CLYDE MUELLER/THE NEW MEXICAN

Nationwide reports of widespread problems in the Veterans Affairs health system is nothing new to local vets, who say long delays and poor service are common in N.M.

By Daniel J. Chacón The New Mexican

TAOS — Sam Jiron grew up believing that Christopher “Kit” Carson was a noble man, a great leader and scout whose place in American history should be revered. Over time, Jiron, now 43, has come to a different belief. “He was a murderer,” Jiron, a Taos Pueblo member, said Thursday while sitting on a shaded patch of grass in a 19-acre park named after the famed frontiersman. It’s a sentiment shared by others, including newly elected town Councilor Fritz Hahn, a white man who was part of a majority vote last week to strip Carson’s name from the park and rename it Red Willow in deference to Native Americans. The Tuesday vote, intended to ease some of the pain that many indigenous people still feel about Carson and other settlers, reignited a bitter debate in New Mexico over the recognition and honor that should be placed on historical figures with complicated pasts. Hahn said he has been flooded with complaints from “angry” constituents since the council renamed the park, where Carson and his third wife, Josefa Jaramillo Carson, are buried side by side. Hahn said he has been encouraging people to attend the next council meeting June 24 to voice their concerns, but he’s not going to change his mind. “Here’s the core issue: When I hear people from the pueblo saying that they don’t like coming into town, they feel diminished, when I hear our Pueblo sisters and brothers talking about not even wanting to go to

Vietnam veteran John Breneiser waited so long for eye care through the Veteran Affairs health system that he eventually gave up and paid thousands of dollars out of his own pocket for surgery.

By Robert Nott Photos by Jane Phillips The New Mexican

hen John Breneiser underwent cataract surgery in 2011 at the Veterans Affairs hospital in Albuquerque, doctors discovered another problem. The retina of his right eye was detached. The disabled Vietnam veteran would need more surgery. Three years later, Breneiser was still waiting.

The pain at times was searing. His vision out of that eye gradually eroded. Yet weekly phone calls to a veterans outpatient clinic to schedule an operation yielded only promises of callbacks that never came. Finally, last week, with still no word from the clinic, Breneiser went to a private doctor and paid thousands of dollars out of his own pocket for the procedure. “I got tired of waiting for the VA and waiting for the VA and waiting for the VA,” the 64-year-old Santa Fe resident said. “It takes forever to get anything done.” His experience is just one of a growing number of stories of agonizingly long delays in care offered by the nation’s veterans hospitals. An audit released last week by the

Department of Veterans Affairs revealed a wide range of problems with the department’s 731 hospitals and outpatient clinics.

NEW CASTLE, Colo. — Four in 10 new oil and gas wells near national forests and fragile watersheds, or other areas with high pollution risks, escape federal inspection, unchecked by an agency struggling to keep pace with America’s drilling boom, according to an Associated Press review that shows wide state-by-state disparities in safety checks. Roughly half or more of wells on federal and Indian lands weren’t checked in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming, despite potential harm that has led to efforts in some communities to ban new drilling.

In New Castle, a tiny Colorado River valley community, homeowners expressed chagrin at the large number of uninspected wells, many on federal land, that dot the steep hillsides and rocky landscape. Like elsewhere in the West, water is a precious commodity in this Colorado town, and some residents worry about the potential health hazards of any leaks from wells and drilling. “Nobody wants to live by an oil rig.

Today Sunny, breezy. High 84, low 50.

On the eve of the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003, a 36-year-old Jordanian who called himself “the Stranger” slipped into the suburbs of Baghdad armed with a few weapons, bags of cash and an audacious plan for starting a war he hoped would unite Sunni Muslims across the Middle East. The tattooed ex-convict and high-school dropout had few followers and scant ties to the local population. Yet, the Stranger — soon to be known widely as Abu Musab al-Zarqawi — quickly rallied thousands of Iraqis and foreign fighters to his cause. He launched spectacular suicide bombings and gruesome executions targeting Americans, Shiites and others he saw as obstacles to his vision for a Sunni caliphate stretching from Syria to the Persian Gulf. Zarqawi was killed in a U.S. airstrike in 2006, but the organization he founded is again on the march. In just a week, his group — formerly known as al-Qaida in Iraq and now called the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, or ISIS — has seized cities and towns across western and northern Iraq at a pace that might have astonished Zarqawi himself. Already in control of large swaths of eastern Syria, the group’s black-clad warriors appear to have taken a leap toward realizing Zarqawi’s dream of an extremist Sunni enclave across the region.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Wednesday continued its abolition of limits on election spending, striking down a decades-old cap on the total amount any individual can contribute to federal candidates in a two-year election cycle.

Policy changes come in response to death of Albuquerque boy

os Alamos National Laboratory has begun shipping radioactive material to a private waste storage facility in Texas after a radiation leak in February forced the federal nuclear waste repository near Carlsbad to shut down. But a watchdog group worries that the lab’s waste containers are being shipped under a regulatory regime they say has been weakened over the past several years, culminating with a change in 2013 that brought an end to mandatory chemical testing. “In 2013, all of the real inspections of the containers at all the generating sites were stopped,” said Don Hancock, director of the Nuclear Waste Safety program and an administrator at the Southwest Research and Information Center in Albuquerque. “So almost for the last year, there hasn’t been a requirement for shipments to WIPP [the Carlsbad nuclear waste plant] to have more than paperwork for the containers.”

Environment Department officials confirmed the containers full of plutonium-contaminated lab tools, rags, soil and other materials shipped from LANL to Texas will be inspected under the same protocols instituted last year. But the

ALBUQUERQUE — Responding to what she called the tragic death of a 9-year-old Albuquerque boy, Gov. Susana Martinez introduced more than a dozen policy changes and directives Wednesday intended to reform the way child abuse cases are investigated in New Mexico. The moves came in response to criticism that the system did not do enough to protect Omaree Varela of Albuquerque, who police said was kicked to death by his mother after previous reports of abuse. Martinez personally reviewed the case and spent the past three months with other state officials, taking a broader look at how child abuse and neglect investigations were being handled. “Omaree died in a manner that no child should ever experience,” the governor said. “He was betrayed by the one person who should have loved him and protected him the most, and that was his mother.” Martinez intends to sign a number of executive orders requiring caseworkers to review police reports and other documents before making any investigative decisions, and to establish child advocacy centers around the state where caseworkers will meet regularly with authorities to investigate reports of child abuse or neglect. Part of the governor’s focus will be on Valencia County, which she

department says the changes were not critical and did not weaken oversight. Workers on Wednesday reentered the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant for the first time since the Feb. 14 leak. Wearing anti-contamination suits with powered airbreathing units, two eight-person teams surveyed conditions in the sprawling underground facility and did not detect any airborne contamination, U.S. Department of Energy officials said. The federal officials called it a “critical first step” toward allowing workers to travel farther into the salt bed to identify the suspected source of the release. But officials have yet to give a timeline on when the plant will reopen, forcing the lab and other nuclear facilities to find new places to deposit their radioactive waste. The lab has been under pressure to remove all of its transuranic legacy waste by June 2014 under a deadline set by the state. The first shipment of waste from the lab arrived Wednesday at the facility in

n the night of Feb. 14, a mix of chemicals inside a container of radioactive waste in an underground salt cavern in Southern New Mexico created so much heat the drum’s lid cracked. Radiation leaked out. Heavy bags of magnesium oxide stacked on top of the containers to prevent leaks shifted and disintegrated from the force of the reaction. A small amount of radiation made its way through filters and an air vent to the ground above the excavated salt bed. An alarm sounded at 11:14 p.m. that night, and the handful of employees at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant near Carlsbad were quickly evacuated and tested for radiation exposure. Officials said 21 tested positive, but none at dangerous levels. Within hours, the nation’s only permanent repository for nuclear waste — the one officials said would never have a radiation leak when the site opened 15 years ago — was shut down for what could be several years. The container in question, a 55-gallon drum

From a facility at Los Alamos National Laboratory’s Area G, where the waste was repacked, to a room in the salt cavern near Carlsbad, where the drum was stacked and waiting to burst, a whole slew of people were responsible for how it was handled. Tracing the container’s path from Los Alamos to WIPP reveals the complexities of overseeing and safely handling the transfer of radioactive waste from the nation’s nuclear programs. LANL and other facilities have relied on the cavernous salt beds at WIPP as a permanent solution for dealing with the waste from decades of nuclear arms research and production. The process of packaging and shipping the waste involves more than a dozen state and federal agencies and private contractors — creating layer upon layer of regulatory and supervisory checkpoints. The Feb. 14 leak has raised questions about these safeguards, both at the state and federal levels. Among the discoveries since the leak, for example,

he Dutch may have been cheering wildly in Fortaleza, Brazil, on Sunday when the Netherlands’ Klaas-Jan Huntelaar scored his team’s winning goal in Sunday’s World Cup game against Mexico, but in Santa Fe, Tomas Aguilar hung his head and cried. “It hurts a lot,” Aguilar said Sunday morning at the city’s Municipal Recreational Complex on Caja del Rio Road, where about 20 men watched the game play out on a 42-inch flat-screen TV adjacent to the complex’s soccer field. “Mexico is where I come from. The hurt is from my heart.” Mexican national Cesar Vernal, who organized the screening, summed it up in two words: “Terrible. Awful.” But just 40 minutes earlier, the small crowd of Santa Fe soccer players and fans, many of whom played in a match themselves earlier that morning, expressed joy and pride as Mexico’s Giovani dos Santos scored Mexico’s first and only goal around the 47-minute mark in the second half of the game. At halftime, the recreational complex crowd was predicting with confidence that Mexico would hold the lead. The men and teens watching animatedly spoke of the way their team had kept possession of the ball, gaining more shots at the Netherlands’ goal. That the Mexican team missed a number of opportu-

The pair of education advocates had a big idea, a new approach to transform every public-school classroom in America. By early 2008, many of the nation’s top politicians and education leaders had lined up in support. But that wasn’t enough. The duo needed money — tens of millions of dollars, at least — and they needed a champion who could overcome the politics that had thwarted every previous attempt to institute national standards. So they turned to the richest man in the world. On a summer day in 2008, Gene Wilhoit, director of a national group of state school chiefs, and David Coleman, an emerging evangelist for the standards movement, spent hours in Bill Gates’ sleek headquarters near Seattle, trying to persuade him and his wife, Melinda, to turn their idea into reality. Coleman and Wilhoit told the Gateses that academic standards varied so wildly between states that high school diplomas had lost all meaning, that as many as 40 percent of college freshmen needed remedial classes and that U.S. students were falling behind their foreign competitors. The pair also argued that a fragmented education system stifled innovation because textbook publishers and software developers were catering to a large number of small markets instead of exploring breakthrough products. That seemed to resonate with the man who led the creation of the world’s dominant computer operating system.

nities during that first half did not discourage the fans, although now and again, some of them smashed empty plastic water bottles against their heads in mock frustration. As the World Cup plays out on television screens worldwide, soccer fever runs high everywhere. But in Santa Fe County, where more than 50 percent of the residents are Hispanic or Latino — according to 2012 census data — a win for Mexico would have been a boon for cultural pride and national spirit. Victor Campos, a Santa Fean from Zacatecas, Mexico, said it is important for the world to see Mexico present itself well in the World Cup. Watching the team battle Cameroon, Brazil and Croatia to get a shot against the Netherlands and the chance to move forward to the quarterfinal stage, he said, left a lot of Mexico’s fans “emotional about each game.” Bernal, who manages the city’s La Liga soccer league, comprising about 70 teams of men and women, said the league postponed its regular 10 a.m. match Sunday to watch Mexico play. He estimated that about 60 percent of his league’s players are from Mexico, and another 30 percent are from South American countries. The men gathered around the television set under a tent attached to Luis Ortiz’s food truck. Ortiz, who is from Guatemala, said every nation takes pride in World Cup matches. “Soccer is the most important sport in the world,” he said. “Baseball is only for the USA. Football is only for

the USA. But soccer is continental.” That the match turned so quickly in the Netherlands’ favor so late in the game seemed to throw everyone at the field. With just a few minutes to go in regular time, the Netherlands’ Wesley Sneijder scored a goal, evening the score. Shortly thereafter, Mexico was penalized after player Rafael Márquez brought down the Netherlands’ Arjen Robben in the penalty zone, giving Huntelaar the chance to make the winning goal via a penalty kick. Within seconds of the match’s end, the TV at the field was turned off and unplugged, and the men returned to the field. There was a soccer game to play. Later in the day, Bernal said he was feeling a little bit better about the loss. “You win some and you lose some,” he said. But Aguilar, overcome with grief, said he could not come up with the words to express his disappointment, or what the loss means to fans of the Mexican team. “Our team played good. They could have taken it. That last penalty didn’t seem fair,” he said. Mexico’s coach, Miguel Herrera, agreed and argued after the match that Mexico was robbed by the referee’s call. Mexico is now out of the World Cup. The Netherlands will play Costa Rica, which defeated Greece in a match Sunday afternoon, in the quarterfinals.

ome operas pretty much take care of themselves dramatically, but others need serious help from their stage directors. In the latter category falls Donizetti’s Don Pasquale, a four-character comedy that does not always display inherent clarity as it unfurls around its single, malicious practical joke. Laurent Pelly’s new production, which opened on Saturday night at The Santa Fe Opera, is desperate to show everyone a good time, but it does not make this opera more lovable in the process. Jam-packed with sight gags and silly walks, its lowbrow approach evokes the aesthetics of a sitcom, although in this case a sitcom that would have little chance of progressing beyond a pilot episode. The punching bag in this tale is Don Pasquale, an aging bachelor who is preventing his nephew Ernesto from marrying the young widow Norina. He decides to get married himself, and his friend Dr. Malatesta rigs up a scheme whereby Don Pasquale will be mock-wedded to Malatesta’s sister (introduced as Sofronia, just out of the convent). Once married, she will make his life miserable, he will be eager to escape the marriage and this will pave the way for Ernesto to marry Norina, who has been masquerading as Sofronia. “Why is Dr. Malatesta so angry at Don Pasquale that he would do this?” asked some novice operagoers who were accompanying a friend of mine for the evening. Why, indeed? And, I would add after enduring this production, why should we care if Ernesto and Norina get together or not, as they are presented independently as unlikeable characters and we never see them demonstrate affection for each other until strikingly late in the game? I am not a partisan of having dumb shows acted

When a network cable at Santa Fe City Hall is frayed, an employee in the Information Technology and Telecommunications Department will replace it. Ideally, the department also would examine cables in every

IT area of the city government at least once a year, as well as set aside funding for replacements. The example illustrates how the department currently functions in a silo rather than as a comprehensive program utilizing best practices, according to a report from one of the nine groups of Mayor Javier Gonzales’ transition team. “While far from being exemplary, IT at the [city of Santa Fe] is not in immediate danger of catastrophic failure,” the group that examined the city’s information

Bowe Bergdahl stands, hands at his sides, his loosefitting Pashtun smock and pants bright white against the rocky landscape. The hillsides are dotted with armed Afghans, rifles ready. A Black Hawk appears in the clouds. After almost five years in captivity, the American soldier, head shaved, eyes blinking, is about to finally see freedom. “We’ve been looking for you for a long time,” a member of a special forces team shouts over the roar of the copter. Bergdahl breaks down. It was supposed to be a moment for celebration, America’s only military captive in the 13-year Afghan conflict free at last. And in his hometown in Idaho, where trees are bedecked with yellow ribbons and prayers never stopped, indeed it is. But for the rest of the country, Bergdahl’s capture and release have thrust him into a furious debate.

Santa Fe Realtor captures bird’s-eye views of high-end properties with drone

By Jim Yardley

The New York Times

VATICAN CITY — Pope John XXIII was the rotund Italian pontiff with a common touch, who told jokes, embraced the poor and became beloved as “the Good Pope.” To many liberal Catholics, he is still revered for the Second Vatican Council, the landmark event of the 1960s that sought to move the Roman Catholic Church into the modern age. Pope John Paul II was the charismatic Polish pontiff who liked to sneak away from the Vatican to ski and who retooled the papacy in a new era of globalized media. His vision of a more rigid Catholicism made him a revered figure among many conservative Catholics suspicious of the liberalizing spirit introduced by John XXIII. “The man who took the lid off and the man who tried to put it back on,” said Eamon Duffy, a professor of the his-

tory of Christianity at the University of Cambridge. Now a new pope, Francis, is making his most public attempt to sew together the two men’s different legacies as he pushes his own vision of a church under a big tent. Francis will preside Sunday over a first-of-its-kind joint canonization of the former popes, both iconic figures in the 20thcentury church who will be elevated to sainthood during a Mass at St. Peter’s Square. For Francis, who has spent the first year of his papacy straddling the divisions within the church, this twinning allows him to deftly avoid elevating one man over the other and serves his broader agenda of de-emphasizing ideological battles as he tries to renew excitement among the faithful and reverse a steady decline in church attendance. “The Catholic Church is big enough to encompass

luxury home for sale just off Old Taos Highway on Santa Fe’s north side has its own website. Buyers, especially those who might be a continent away, can peruse dozens of high-quality photographs of the 3,900-square-foot main house and 1,300-square-foot guesthouse and take a video tour of the 1.2-acre property. There’s also an aerial image from Google. But the website now includes highdefinition video recorded by a camera mounted on a remote-controlled unmanned aircraft — commonly known as a drone. The video gives potential buyers a bird’s-eye view of the property, which is on the market for $1.3 million. Using drones to sell high-end houses is the latest trend in the real estate industry. Agents across the country are adopting the newest technology to differentiate themselves from the rest of the pack. Homeowner Hal Wingo, former senior editor of Life magazine and co-founder of People, hopes the drone photography will attract a buyer. He and his wife, Paula, are decamping to warmer climes after more than eight years in Santa Fe.

Information could hurt economically vulnerable as they seek jobs, housing By Eileen Sullivan The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A White House review of how the government and private sector use large sets of data has found that such information could be used to discriminate against Americans on issues such as housing and employment even as it makes their lives easier in many ways.

Tercero’s remote-controlled DJI Phantom drone with an attached GoPro Hero 3 camera captures high-definition video of a property for sale.

Wingo said when his agent, Brian Tercero of Keller Williams Realty, broached the drone idea, “The more I thought about it, the more I thought, ‘He’s on the edge of something here.’ ” But what may seem like a smart and imaginative new way to sell houses is actu-

ally fraught with complications. Because low-flying drones can pick up tiny details, such as the facial expressions of people on the ground, many people are worried that they’re an invasion of personal privacy.

“Big data” is everywhere. It allows mapping apps to ping cellphones anonymously and determine, in real time, what roads are the most congested. But it also can be used to target economically vulnerable people. The issue came up during a 90-day review ordered by President Barack Obama, White House counselor John Podesta said in an interview with The Associated Press. Podesta did not discuss all the findings, but said the potential for discrimination is an issue that warrants a closer look.

Opinions, B-1

epublican Gov. Susana Martinez and her Democratic challenger, Gary King, both say they are committed to openness in government. Yet both have been sued by critics who allege that they refused to release emails pertaining to the public’s business. Allegations of unwarranted secrecy are about to get worse for King, the state attorney general, who is supposed Milan to enforce New Simonich Mexico’s public Ringside Seat records law. An old case against him regarding controversial cockfighting raids has come home to roost. In 2009, Marcy Britton of Albuquerque sought all emails pertaining to King and his Animal Cruelty Task Force. This month, after nearly five years of legal wrangling, King’s office released about 24,000 of the emails that Britton’s attorney requested. Britton already was suing King, claiming he violated the public records law by intentionally withholding emails. His office had previously released several hundred. She says the belated disclosure of thousands more emails makes her suit against King even stronger. Britton, 65, is a self-described animal rights activist. She says King’s Animal Cruelty Task Force actually was a vigilante group that trampled the constitutional rights of Hispanic ranchers and slaughtered their animals on speculative claims of cockfighting. The motive for the raids, Britton said, was to generate publicity for King and a politically influential group called Animal Protection New Mexico. King’s task force effectively was led by a volunteer named Heather Ferguson, who at the time was the lobbyist and legislative director for APNM. King was friendly with the organization, even lending the name of his office to its private hotline for complaints about animal cruelty. Ferguson, a civilian, directed police to obtain warrants for the task force’s raids on ranches. She also participated in the raids. She wore a handgun at

Española wins in father-daughter match By James Barron The New Mexican

Kansas City Royals’ Salvador Perez hits a walk-off single to drive in Christian Colon with the winning run in the 12th inning, giving the Royals a 9-8 win over the Oakland Athletics in the AL wild-card playoff game Tuesday in Kansas City, Mo. CHARLIE RIEDEL/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Española — The grudge wears red. While Karli and Damon Salazar downplayed their respective teams’ volleyball match against each other, it certainly added to the atmosphere of the father-daughter battle between West Las Vegas (the team for which Karli is head coach) and Española Valley (headed by Damon Salazar) in Edward Medina Gymnasium. There was Kristi Salazar, Karli’s sister, in red on the bench as an assistant for Española, while brother Sean wore the greenand-gold of the Lady Dons. But in the end,

it was the Lady Sundevils and the Lady Dons who decided things on the court, and it was decisively in the favor of Española in a 25-18, 25-19, 25-10 nondistrict sweep. Even though both coaches tried to make it about their teams, it was hard to put the family element aside. At least it was for Damon. “It means a lot because our teams are competing against each other,” Damon said. “Obviously everybody wants to beat each other. When it’s so close to home … I had really mixed emotions. I know she would have felt good beating us, but, unfortunately, I don’t feel that good.”

League has laundry list of verboten celebrations By Eddie Pells The Associated Press

Dancing Billy “White Shoes” Johnson, shuffling Ickey Woods and the group high-fiving Fun Bunch? Their entertaining touchdown celebrations would be illegal in today’s NFL. Though the league rulebook has some very specific examples of what constitutes a penalty, the gray area is as wide as ever. Take, for example, Husain Abdullah’s drop to his knees after returning an interception for a touchdown Monday night. It threw the referees for a loop — and caused them to throw a flag. In their eyes, the Chiefs defensive back violated the language in Rule 12, Section 3(d) that states “Players are prohibited from engaging in any celebrations while on the ground.” But Abdullah is a devout Muslim, who had always vowed he’d fall to his knees if he ever reached the end zone. Critics pointed out that many players have knelt in Christian player and weren’t penalized, most notably Tim Tebow, who’s one-knee genuflection became a meme. After further review, the NFL said since it was part of a religious expression, and Abdullah should not have been flagged.

Javi and Ale Castillo, the brother-sister duo guarding the nets for both Monte del Sol soccer teams, both began playing soccer at Monte last year, having previously played basketball. JANE PHILLIPS/THE NEW MEXICAN

f you want to score against Monte del Sol, you have to go through the Castillos. Junior Javi Castillo minds the net for the boys soccer team while his younger sister, freshman Ale Castillo, keeps for the girls team. Although they are making big contributions to their teams, the siblings didn’t start playing soccer until last year. They have been on the hardwood playing basketball since fifth grade, and both played varsity for Monte del Sol last year. Even when they were young, they were pushing each other to get better with some intense one-on-one games. “We really go hard-core with each other,” Ale said. The desire to push themselves athletically led them to the soccer pitch, but they never envisioned themselves as goalies. Both teams desperately needed goalkeepers, however, and the Castillos answered the call. “At first it started out because they didn’t have goalkeepers, so we tried it out and got the spot,” Javi said. Javi grew to appreciate the position, and he was an integral part of the Dragons making it to the Class A-AAA semifinals for the first time in school history. “I love it, man,” he said. “It’s pretty awesome. Yelling, diving, yelling at my defense to move, throwing the ball; it’s just fun.” Javi has improved so much since he first started that it appears like he has been playing soccer much longer, and his basketball background may have given him a head start. “The way he’s playing, you would never know that it’s his second year as a goalkeeper,” boys head coach Mazatl Galindo said. “He has a great jump and good hands, and that’s 50

Now, the Sundevils benefited from two wins over Class AA McCurdy and Questa, but they also came away with an impressive 30-22 win over Gallup. Remember, Santa Fe High beat the Bengals two weeks ago by a 28-17 count, so that says something about the competitiveness of Espanola’s program. Capital’s improvement has been noted throughout the season. Both St. Michael’s head coach Joey Fernandez and Robertson head man Leroy Gonzalez saw noted improvement in the 2-3 Jaguars from last year. They can physically compete with most teams, even though they have a young core (only six seniors on the team). The same can be said of the Sundevils, who have but four seniors on their roster. This weekend, though, will bring

stiff tests for both programs. Española heads to Taos on Friday for a matchup against last year’s AAA (now AAAA) semifinalist. Capital gets one of the more revered football programs in the state (albeit rebuilding in its own right) in Lovington at Jaguar Field on Friday. But compared to last year, both teams have to come into those games feeling like they are close to a breakthrough. Friday could be it. If it happens, then Halloween night could be a treat for both programs, instead of the usual trick they have been accustomed to for the past five years (for Española, it’s been longer than that). Who could have thought that a Jaguars-Sundevils matchup could mean that much on the football field? It’s OK to admit it if you didn’t. You’re not alone.

Royals: Will face Los Angeles Angels in division series Thursday Continued from Page B-5 little in the ninth forced extra innings. The teams kept trading blows over the next couple innings, as midnight came and went on the East Coast and the tension continued to build. Brandon Finnegan finally cracked after tossing two scoreless innings, but the Royals were there to pick up their pitching one last time. Eric Hosmer hit a rocket to the wall in left field off Dan Otero for a leadoff triple in the 12th, and Colon hit an infield chopper that he beat out for a tying single. That set the stage for Perez, who lined a pitch from Jason Hammel just inside the third-base line to send the Royals pouring out of their dugout in a mad celebration. The long-suffering franchise hadn’t

played in the postseason since beating St. Louis in the 1985 World Series, and the excitement the permeated the city might best be summed up by a statement posted by the Kansas City Police on Twitter in about the 10th inning: “We really need everyone to not commit crimes and drive safely right now. We’d like to hear the Royals clinch.” They finally did it in a thrilling start to baseball’s playoffs. For the Oakland, it was one final collapse in a season full of them. The club that once had the best record in baseball wilted over the second half of the season, and needed a victory on the final day of the regular season just to squeeze into the playoffs. They had chances to put all that in the past. Instead, it will be dragged up for years.

A much-anticipated pitching showdown between Oakland ace Jon Lester and Kansas City counterpart James Shields instead turned into a highscoring game and a battle of attrition between their bullpens. Brandon Moss helped the A’s strike first, belting a two-run homer in the first inning and a three-run shot in the fifth. The Royals countered by playing small ball, stealing seven bases to tie a postseason record previously shared by the 1907 Chicago Cubs and 1975 Cincinnati Reds, according to STATS. Kansas City clawed back from a fourrun deficit over the final two innings. The impassioned play by a scrappy bunch of Royals that have rarely tasted success energized a sellout crowd that had been pining for postseason baseball since the 1985 World Series.

Rio Rancho dismantles Santa Fe High, 3-0 Welcome to District 1AAAAAA volleyball, Santa Fe High. It was not a pretty introduction the Demonettes received from host Rio Rancho on Tuesday night, as the Lady Rams disassembled them 25-10, 25-18, 25-16 in both teams’ district opener. The one thing Santa Fe High (9-2 over-

all) did well during most of a 9-1 start was pass, but it was missing for most of the match against Rio Rancho. The Demonettes’ biggest issue was in the serve-receive department, which was the beginning — and ending — point for all of their struggles. “When the serve-receive falls apart, there’s no hope,” said Sam Estrada, Santa Fe High head coach. “You can’t worry about hitting or setting because there was no use without the passing.”

Wednesday, October 1, 2014 THE NEW MEXICAN

Kayla Herrera managed nine kills to lead Santa Fe High, while Brandee Fulgenzi added four. Isabella Christian-Padilla registered 11 assists, while Shania Borrego chipped in with six. On the defensive end, Allyjah Ramirez had a team-high 16 digs. Santa Fe High will get its District 1AAAAAA home opener on Thursday against Rio Rancho Cleveland, last year’s Class AAAAA (now AAAAAAA) runnerup. The New Mexican

Continued from Page B-5 percent of what you need to be a good goalkeeper.” Ale, on the other hand, would rather be on the field scoring goals. But like Javi, she is trying to help the team any way she can. “I would like to play striker because I’m faster, and I feel like that’s one of the things we need on my team,” Ale said. “But I’m also supposedly the best goalie on our team, so I do it for the team.” Ale’s athleticism makes her a threat anywhere on the field. First-year girls head coach India Nixon would like to put her everywhere, but she thinks her skills are best used in the net. “She’s a really, really strong field player, and we put her out on the field as much as we could,” Nixon said. “But she’s our goalie, and she’s an awesome goalie.” The two don’t really practice much together, but they still try to make each other better. Even though they have been goalkeeping for the same amount of time, Javi gives Ale advice as if he’s been doing it for years. “He tries to motivate me, because we both know what it’s like to be a goalie,” Ale said. “It’s a lot of pressure, and whenever I put myself down, he tries to motivate me and tell me what to do because he’s more of an expert.” That motivation includes getting Ale to dive for shots, which is something she admits she is not comfortable doing yet. “She doesn’t like to dive, so I tell her dive, but she doesn’t do it,” Javi said. “I try to help her out so she can be a better ’keeper. She’s had some

matches where she looks like she doesn’t know what she’s doing.” But the motivation doesn’t go one way. Although Javi is older, Ale likes to give him encouragement when things aren’t going his way. “He always gets really frustrated when he gets scored on, and I tell him that it’s OK,” she said. The two don’t just talk about goalkeeping. They admit that they don’t hang out much outside of the house, but they can always lean on each other when they have issues that go beyond the pitch.

“Usually, we just talk about stuff,” Ale said. “If he’s having problems, he talks to me, and I talk to him about a lot of stuff too.” The two still like to challenge and motivate each other, there is no debate as to who is the better ’keeper. “He’s way better,” Ale said. “I really enjoy watching him play. I think he’s an amazing keep. Whatever he does, I want to get myself to do that too because I want to be that good.” There is still a lot of room for improvement, though. Javi still has another year to perfect his skills, and maybe someday Ale

will be more comfortable diving, and each day shows more promise. “As far as I can see, they are always improving,” Galindo said. “Every match is better and better. They seem to find a groove in something that I think was not their first choice.” Maybe playing goalkeeper wasn’t their first choice, but it doesn’t stop them from excelling at it. If there is something that is certain about the Castillos, it’s that they are always there for each other, and they are always there for their team.

SOCCER NOTEBOOK

Desert Academy gets 1st score on St. Mike’s By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

The Desert Academy girls soccer team is making slow, yet steady strides. The Lady Wildcats scored on District 2A-AAAA rival St. Michael’s for the first time ever in a 5-1 loss to the Lady Horsemen at Alto Park last Friday. The Lady Wildcats even kept the score to a modest 2-0 at halftime. Desert Academy was beat 10-0 by St. Michael’s twice last year, and first-year head coach Justice Whitaker said it was somewhat of a moral victory for his older players. “We were definitely feeling good after that one,” he said. “For the juniors and seniors, it definitely felt like an accomplishment.” It was also the first time a district opponent has scored on St. Michael’s this year, as the Lady Horsemen have shut out Santa Fe Prep, Monte del Sol and Santa Fe Indian School.

With a down year for Prep, it is possible the Lady Wildcats can take second in the district and get a spot in the state tournament. “I think we’re moving forward,” Whitaker said. “I definitely think making the state tournament is an option for Desert Academy.” The district still appears to go through St. Michael’s, though, as the Lady Horsemen have won 29 straight district matches and has not lost a district contest since falling to Prep in penalty kicks on Oct. 1, 2011. Under this year’s new rules, that match would have ended in a tie. uuu

Logan Sullivan’s reign as the top scorer in the state has finally come to an end, at least for now. The Santa Fe Prep freshman striker was surpassed by Albuquerque Sandia Prep senior Ryan Hunter, who now has 20 goals on the season after the Sundevils pummeled Artesia 10-0 on Saturday, leaving

Sullivan with 18. The two strikers will meet in a nondistrict match on Oct. 23. uuu

It was a week of redemption for a few soccer teams up North. The Los Alamos boys soccer team stopped a four-match losing streak with a 2-1 win over Taos on Saturday. It was the first win for the Hilltoppers since beating Albuquerque St. Pius X 3-2 on Sept. 5. That was also happened to be the fourth straight loss for the Tigers, but they rebounded with an 8-4 win over Bernalillo on Monday. One of those losses was a 2-1 loss to Monte del Sol on Sept. 13, where they let the Dragons take an uncontested shot to end the match after Monte del Sol midfielder Shalto Dascher left the field in an ambulance after a severe concussion. After starting the season 7-0, the Taos girls soccer team dropped three straight, but it got back on track with a 2-0 win over Bernalillo on Monday.

Española: Both teams have dinner together Continued from Page B-5 The main reason was that Damon wanted see West Las Vegas (4-3) play well, which it did to a point. The Lady Dons held leads of 16-9 in Game 1 and 8-3 in Game 2, but they were overwhelmed by the Lady Sundevils’ eventual onslaught. The Lady Sundevils, fresh off a mixed bag of a performance at the Rio Rancho VolleyBash in which they took the bronze bracket title, showed they were a little better in all facets of the game. They hit better, passed stronger and served more precisely than their Lady Dons counterparts. Of those three elements, it was the serving. It pushed setter Sarah Gold away from the net and negated the Lady Dons’ strength in the

middle with hitter Jaylen Gutierrez. “We’re pulling my setter past the middle, and my big middle Jaylen is our best hitter,” Karli said. “When we can’t give her the ball, it’s really hard to score points.” That’s especially true when outside hitters Janika Padilla and Celeste Trujillo are not consistent enough from the outside. Padilla had five kills and two blocks, while Trujillo had just six kills as they received the majority of the opportunities. On the other end, though, Española (8-2) made the most of its opportunities once it overcame slow starts. Most of those chances went through the Lady Sundevils’ 1-2 punch of Kaitlyn Romero and cousin

Elana Salazar. Salazar finished with a team-high 13 kills, while Romero added 11 before leaving the match late in Game 3 when she rolled her ankle on Gold’s foot on a block that made it 19-7. Romero was carried off the court, but was walking once the match ended — a good sign for the Lady Sundevils. “When Katie’s hurt, she’s hurt,” said senior setter Nicole Romero. “She’s someone who wants to play, and she has the best focus on the team. So, we know she’ll come back.” Romero, meanwhile, is on her own comeback. After missing all of last year with a torn ACL, she is slowly finding her groove again. It showed in the four dump kills she had as Romero found holes in the

middle of West Las Vegas’ defense. While she was once an alldistrict setter, Romero said she has relearned a lot from fellow setter, junior Celina Naranjo, about getting the feel for her position. “She’s just my favorite out there,” Romero said. “She’s helping me more than she knows.” What everybody knows, though, is that a family grudge match is merely that. In a typical show of Salazar gratitude, patriarch and Damon’s dad, Freddie Salazar, a 1960 West Las Vegas graduate who raised Damon in Española, spearheaded a post-match dinner for both teams. It’s the Salazar way.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Michigan admits mishandling concussion By Noah Trister The Associated Press

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Michigan announced changes to its injury protocol Tuesday, admitting it made a mistake in handling quarterback Shane Morris following a suspected concussion because of a “serious lack of communication” and “confusion” among the coaching staff. Athletic director Dave Brandon said Michigan plans to have a medical professional in the press box or video booth at future football games after what happened over the weekend. Coach Brady Hoke has been criticized for not immediately sitting Morris for the rest of the game after the sophomore took a hard hit in the fourth quarter against Minnesota on Saturday. Hoke said Monday he didn’t see the hit on Morris, and that all he knew at the time was that his quarterback was dealing with an ankle issue. About 12 hours later, Brandon released a statement saying Morris had eventually been diagnosed with a probable concussion. “In my judgment, there was a serious lack of communication that led to confusion on the sideline. Unfortunately, this confusion created a circumstance that was not in the best interest of one of our student-athletes,” Brandon said. “I sincerely apologize for the mistakes that were made.” Brandon outlined two changes Michigan will make immediately. “We will have an athletic medicine professional in the press box or video booth to ensure that someone will have a bird’s eye view of the on-field

action, have television replay available and have the ability to communicate with medical personnel on the sidelines,” Brady Hoke Brandon said. “We are also examining how to reinforce our sideline communication processes and how decisions will be made in order to make sure that information regarding student-athlete availability to participate is communicated effectively amongst the medical team and to our coaches.” Morris took a crunching hit from Minnesota’s Theiren Cockran and briefly looked as if he was having trouble standing, but he remained in for the next play and threw an incompletion before coming out of the game. Devin Gardner replaced Morris, but later on that drive, Gardner’s helmet came off at the end of a play. While Gardner sat out for a play, as required, Morris went back

in and handed the ball off to a running back. Asked Monday if Morris had been diagnosed with a concussion, Hoke said: “Everything that I know of, no.” Hoke said Morris would have practiced Sunday night if not for a high ankle sprain. In his statement, Brandon said: “As of Sunday, Shane was diagnosed with a probable, mild concussion, and a high ankle sprain. That probable concussion diagnosis was not at all clear on the field on Saturday or in the examination that was conducted postgame. Unfortunately, there was inadequate communication between our physicians and medical staff, and Coach Hoke was not provided the updated diagnosis before making a public statement on Monday.” Brandon said Morris had been treated for a sprained ankle earlier in the game, and medical staff on the sideline believed that was why he stumbled while trying to walk around after being hit by Cockran.

“The team neurologist, watching from further down the field, also did not see the hit. However, the neurologist, with expertise in detecting signs of concussion, saw Shane stumble and determined he needed to head down the sideline to evaluate Shane,” Brandon said. As for how Morris went back in after Gardner’s helmet came off: “Shane came off the field after the [incomplete pass] and was reassessed by the head athletic trainer for the ankle injury,” Brandon said. “Since the athletic trainer had not seen the hit to the chin and was not aware that a neurological evaluation was necessary, he cleared Shane for one additional play.” Brandon said the neurologist and other team physicians were not aware Morris was being asked to return to the field, and Morris left the bench when he heard his name called and went back into the game. “Under these circumstances, a player should not be allowed to re-enter the game before being cleared by the team physician,” Brandon said. Hoke has been under mounting scrutiny as his team struggles for the second straight season. But Brandon did not single him out for falling short in what happened with Morris. In 2004, when he was the coach at Ball State, Hoke was formally reprimanded by his athletic director after a football player got frostbite during a disciplinary workout in subzero temperatures. Athletic director Bubba Cunningham said the disciplinary workout was acceptable, but not in severe weather conditions.

Chuck your canned fish for Italian tuna By Ellie Krieger The Washington Post

Because I am constantly in the kitchen creating new recipes, I hardly ever eat the same thing twice. So if a meal has made it into my regular rotation, you know it has got to be something special. This salad has earned its place as my official go-to lunch; I have made it dozens of times and I never tire of it. It’s as simple as simple can be and takes less than 10 minutes to whip up, so it is ideal for a busy weekday lunch or light dinner. It is really a showcase for one sublime ingredient: Italian tuna packed in olive oil, which can be found in glass jars at most high-end grocery stores. Although it might give you a bit of sticker shock (A 6.7-ounce jar cost me $7.99 recently at my local Whole Foods Market, but I have seen it sell for up to $14.99), once you try it you will see why it is a worthwhile indulgence. Put your typical canned-fish experience out of your mind completely. This tuna has a luxe steak-iness and pleasant aroma, and the oil in the jar is easily put to good use as the dressing base. Because you use just half a jar per serving, it is a pretty good value when you break it down and consider the quality of the meal you can create with it. I usually enjoy it as paired here, with peppery arugula and crisp slivers of fresh fennel, but I will use whatever type of greens I have on hand and add tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, fresh parsley or whatever vegetable or herb is in my refrigerator at the time. A squeeze of lemon juice is all that’s needed to complete the dressing. I have written it up here to serve four, but the recipe is easily divided to serve one or two. Personally, I turn to it mostly as a lunch for one; the remaining jarred tuna can be refrigerated for up to three days. It’s a satisfying way to fuel a busy afternoon. This 5-minute, 6-ingredient salad is destined to become your go-to lunch on a busy day. The star ingredient, olive-oil-packed Italian tuna, is a bit of an indulgence but a worthy one, as one taste of the delicate, rich flesh will prove. Use pre-washed arugula to make preparation even speedier, and feel free to use any vegetable you have on hand instead of the fennel. ARUGULA AND FENNEL SALAD WITH TUNA Total time: less than 10 minutes; makes 4 servings 5 cups lightly packed baby arugula (5 ounces) 1 large fennel bulb, cored and thinly sliced (preferably with a mandoline) 1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, each cut in half Two 6- or 7-ounce jars Italian olive-oil-packed tuna, preferably Tonnino brand tuna, oil reserved 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Kosher salt (optional) Preparation: Combine the arugula, fennel and tomatoes in a mixing bowl. Break up the tuna a bit with a fork to create bite-size chunks; add them to the bowl along with 2 tablespoons of oil from the tuna jars. Add the lemon juice and pepper; toss to incorporate. The saltiness of different tuna brands varies widely, so taste first, then season lightly with salt only if needed. Divide among individual bowls; serve right away.

Mark Friedman, left, owner of M.A.M.A.’S. World Take-Out, talks to customers during lunchtime last week.

By Tantri Wija Photos by Clyde Mueller For The New Mexican

ou have probably never heard of M.A.M.A.’S. World Take-Out, though you may have driven by it while cruising down Rufina Street looking for a windshield repair shop and briefly noted its gaily flapping multicolored flags and humble sandwich board advertising pupusas, Frito pies and hot dogs. It looks like a food truck that doesn’t move, a funky little storefront with very little seating, very little parking and an ersatz, developing-world look to it. Nothing about the exterior makes it clear that this funky metal building is the source of tasty, fresh, inspired lunch items prepared with a gourmet palate and sold for taco-stand prices to patrons in the know by a guy who obsesses about his food as much as any fourstar chef. M.A.M.A.’S. owner, Mark Friedman, is a New Jersey transplant who is both media-shy and surprisingly bashful about letting people know how good his food is. Friedman’s own culinary journey began when he took some Thai cooking classes with a Thai woman out of her house and discovered he had a flair for flavor and international cuisines. And while he’s never owned a restaurant before, Santa Fe is actually well-used to eating Friedman’s food — he’s been putting out packaged food under the label “The Providers” for 15 years. His pad thai and Burmese crunchy ginger salad can be found in hand-packaged plastic containers at La Montanita, Sprouts and Kaune’s, among other places. M.A.M.A.’S. is his first experiment in an eatery, which basically involved cutting a hole in the kitchen where he prepares the rest of his food and serving lunch straight from the source over the counter. “The Providers is a fairly solid base, so that frees me up to kind of have fun with this,” explains Friedman. “It’s kind of fun because it’s so unusual.” The name does not refer to anyone’s actual mama, but is rather an acronym of the nationalities represented on the menu — Middle Eastern, American, Mexican (-ish), Asian and Salvadoran. It seems like a lot of choices, a veritable hobo soup, but actually, the menu offers fewer choices than you would get at a restaurant specializing in only one type of food. Instead of being an exhaustive laundry list of items from a laundry list of different cuisines, M.A.M.A.’S. instead offers a few choice items, items that Friedman himself loves to cook and eat, which happen to span across a spectrum of international food traditions. “I could just do a falafel stand, which [the falafel] merits, I could just do a hot dog stand, which [the hot dog] merits, but it’s fun to try to do this unusual sort of approach,” Friedman says. The Salvadorean portion of the menu involves a few kinds of tamales and a few kinds of pupusas. The American part of the menu is a short list of sandwiches, including an Italian hero that Friedman, coming from

New Jersey, is passionate about, and, surprisingly, a hot dog. “Mexican-ish” encompasses a Frito pie and a breakfast burrito. The Asian section of the menu includes the pad thai and Singapore noodles that Santa Feans may already be used to picking up from a grocery store at lunchtime, as well as the aforementioned Burmese crunchy ginger salad. Middle Eastern means falafel or shawarma. Flavor, often very delicate flavor, is the common denominator of every dish on the menu. The cheese pupusa is flavored with loroco, a South American flower that imparts a green, fragrant undertone to the crispy corn cake. The Burmese crunchy ginger salad (which Friedman describes as his “proudest achievement”) is spicy, salty, crunchy and sweet all at once, an amalgamation of dried shrimp, fish sauce, fresh cabbage, ginger, peanuts and dried yellow split peas that hits all the notes in the human palate while maintaining the fresh wholesomeness missing from many prepared Asian dishes. The falafel is always just-made, light and fluffy inside and fried crispy outside, served with hummus that Friedman is proud to say he makes himself. An eatery can be judged by the quality of its sides and condiments, and here M.A.M.A.’S. overachieves with its tangy, fresh, crispy slaws, including fresh sauerkraut, Salvadorean curtido (an oreganospiked cabbage slaw) and authentic Korean kimchi, all house-made just the way Friedman likes them. Nothing is dialed in or left up to chance at

M.A.M.A.’S. Friedman puts thought, extensive thought, in fact, into every aspect of preparation. He agonizes over the choice of hot dog (currently Nathan’s dogs from New York), the way it is prepared (deep fried a la New Jersey, which imparts a crispier skin and more robust flavor), even the bun it is served with. Despite all the effort, the food is ridiculously affordable. That hot dog is a measly $4, the Burmese crunchy ginger salad is $7.50, and the Salvadoran combo plate, which includes a pupusa, a tamale, black beans, rice, curtido and salsa, tops out at $7.50 as well. Many of us can’t remember the last time we had change left over from a $10 bill when paying for lunch. Part of the reason M.A.M.A.’S. is such a secret is Friedman himself, who actually worries that too many people might show up on a given day and overwhelm his hardworking staff. He is gleefully enthusiastic about the food he serves, however, and might have to learn to let the rest of us in on the fun. M.A.M.A.’S. puts more energy into what it puts out than who it brings in, and hidden away in the auto-repair/ storage-unit district that is Rufina, it isn’t the first place you think of when you consider where to go for lunch. But maybe it should be the last place you think of before getting in your car and heading over, after taking your coworkers’ orders on a Post-It note and collecting their money. And make sure you take cash, because at the moment, like a few other local spots that march to the beat of their own drum, M.A.M.A.’S. only accepts cash and local checks.

shallot, vinegar and mustard. Close tightly and shake well to mix. Add salt and pepper, and shake again. Add olive oil ⅓ cup at a time, shaking very well after each addition, until smooth and emulsified. (You may want to wrap a kitchen towel around the container, just in case.) Taste and add more olive oil, ¼ cup at a time, if dressing is too tart. Use immediately or refrigerate up to three weeks. The chilled olive oil will form a lump, so remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before using to allow it to liquefy. Shake well before serving to re-emulsify.

How I learned to stop worrying and love RV-ing By Carol D. Leonnig The Washington Post

This is what it has come to, I thought grimly, as we steered our rented RV onto a gravel road, past a dimly lit, shuttered gas station and toward a dark, unseeable campsite. I am now a person who sleeps behind Chevron stations. This bleak pull-off in the middle of Nowhere, Utah, was fairly early in our family’s long-planned tour of the Great American West, a trip two years in the making and one that we hoped would dazzle our girls with this country’s natural wonders. Now, in small panicky bursts, I was wondering whether agreeing to my husband’s strong preference to have this experience in a rolling RV had been a colossal mistake. Our daughters, thankfully, had fallen asleep in the evening on our drive here, to the outskirts of Bryce Canyon National Park. So as we entered the mysterious RV campsite just before midnight, they didn’t have to see their mother bug-eyed with fretful thoughts. What kind of desperate people were encamped here, people who had presumably been rejected from nicer, family-friendly campsites that were closer to nature and farther from petroleum tanks? Why hadn’t I put my foot down and insisted on Starwood-only properties rather than this preposterous RV and the promise of nightmare experiences from the plot line of a Chevy Chase Vacation movie? Miraculously, when the sun came up, all my fretting proved to be unwarranted. The four of us peeked through the vinyl blinds of our 24-foot home-on-tires to discover that we were nestled on the pristine edge of the Dixie National Forest, surrounded by tall, majestic pines, literally whistling in the morning breeze. To the east, pink-and-white mountains soared. After dashing out to meet our guide for our planned horseback ride into Bryce Canyon, we returned to fully appreciate the sweet spot that Bryce Canyon Pines RV Park was, after all. Our next-door neighbor at the park, a cheerful grandmother in her 70s, helped manage the Pines RV park from the counter at the Chevron station. It turned out to be a homey general store inside, where the clerks were equally likely to be running up sales of penny candy and the makings of s’mores as advising visitors on the best hikes of Bryce’s famous Amphitheater. Yes, there were gas pumps out front, but also adorable and tidy services for the campers out back: a reading nook, a miniature kitchen, a coin laundry and clean his-and-her shower houses. Our ride to the bottom of Bryce Canyon was a lifetime memory: breathtaking views of the canyon’s famous sandstone rock formations called “hoodoos” (they look like frozen people); the mule that carried our younger daughter, Molly, taunting us by walking on the outer precipice of every trail; and hokey, hilarious commentary from our cowboy guide, who was straight from central casting. (Favorite line No. 1: “You people from the city, look up. That’s called blue sky.”) But it also left us sweaty and hot, so on our return we took the short wildflower-edged walk to the pool that the RV park shared with its sister hotel. One of my guidebooks had mildly ridiculed the park as having an “unusually shallow pool with a strange shed overtop.” To us, it was an impossibly happy oasis — a gated and sparkling pool all to ourselves, a hot tub for my husband’s sore back, nestled in the shade of the poolhouse portico, and lots of fluffy towels. Plus, there was no way to beat our view: a grassy plateau overlooking the rose-colored steps of the majestic Grand Staircase. Showing our children the Great West was something that John and I had talked about doing for a while, an idea rooted in good memories. As kids, we’d both taken this trip with our own parents and had loved a trip we took with friends to hike from the North to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. Summer 2014, when our kids would be 8 and 11, was the goal, and I busied myself reserving rooms in sought-after lodges and booking adventures. But as the trip edged closer to reality in early spring, I realized some major logistical challenges in renting an RV for half the trip — our happy compromise. As I explained to John the mostly geographic reasons why we might need to skip the Waylon-and-Willie RV experience, his silence and sinking shoulders told me that he was seriously unhappy. So I took a deep breath and stupidly said: “Or … we could do the whole trip in an RV.” His instant reaction: elation. Our girls were pretty psyched, too. After 20 minutes online, I’d reserved the use of an RV for 13 days and nights for our “Grand Circle” tour, picking up and dropping off in Las Vegas, Nev. We would eat, sleep and live (and I would surely cry a little) in a 24-foot Ford Elite 350 mobile home while retracing the route that geologist John Wesley Powell had traveled in his arduous exploration of the Colorado Plateau in 1869. I wondered who would end up having had a more comfortable trip. Vacation to me often means staying in a big window-walled house in the beach dunes, with ridiculously high thread-count linens and a smattering of hip local restaurants to try. Roughing it is a clapboard, sun-kissed outdoor shower. This expectation was clashing uncomfortably with the visuals that kept popping into my mind: Me cooking in a space smaller than my cubicle at work. Me trying to keep my family pathogen-free while relying on a Barbie-camper-size shower. The four of us struggling to sleep in cramped berths, listening to one another toss, sniffle or snore. But here’s the delightful lesson I learned. Nearly everything about the RV experience was imbued with novelty and built-in humor. And it didn’t hurt that nearly everywhere this camper carried us provided a new adventure or a jaw-dropping vista. And bad things that happened felt more like funny movie scenes than annoyances. When the coffeemaker wasn’t securely stowed and flew across the cabin, or when the side door opened unexpectedly on the highway, we all had to laugh — after the danger had passed. All good high jinks for our Vacation sequel. There were moments when I was dying for the periodic “hotel” night to arrive. But after a brief break, I admit, I wasn’t sorry to climb back aboard our little home.

The Jazz Room of the Riad Star in Marrakesh, Morocco. The room pays homage to Josephine Baker an entertainer who fled Paris during the German occupation of World War II and once owned the home. PHOTOS BY ALAN KEOHANE/RIAD STAR VIA THE NEW YORK TIMES

A little bit of jazz in Marrakesh Moroccan hotel was home to entertainer, dancer Josephine Baker during WWII By Elaine Glusac The New York Times

iad Star, like many of the riads — small hotels in former homes with courtyard gardens — in the Marrakesh medina, the old city, conceals an opulent and tranquil retreat behind a carved plaster entry on a nondescript pedestrian alley. Before opening the threestory bed and breakfast in September 2013, the British owners, Mike and Lucie Wood, discovered the home had once been owned by Josephine Baker, the entertainer who fled Paris during the German occupation of World War II. They consequently decorated the seven-room riad in tribute to her, including mannequins modeling two of her original spangled gowns in the sunny breakfast room. In the heart of the tangled pedestrian alleyways of the medina, Riad Star is near the souks and the Marrakesh Museum, known for the colorful tile work and intricate carvings of the 19th-century palace that houses it. Reaching it is a journey in itself. The manager sends a luggage cart and hired man to pull it to meet guests at the nearest taxi stand at the opening of the old city walls. He then escorts guests on a 15-minute walk through narrow cobblestone lanes, dodging horse carts and threading through souks where spice- and root-filled baskets encroach on the walkways. In the hotel, centered around the sunny central atrium, each of the seven rooms offers a unique layout and décor, all themed to the Jazz Age or aspects of Baker’s life. Mine, Chiquita, named for her pet cheetah, is the only one on the third-story roof deck, which also includes communal public spaces including chaise lounges and sofas. In addition to its own private outdoor seating area, the terra-cotta-tiled and plaster-walled room features a wood-burning fireplace, an L-shaped sofa and a queen bed set within a carved-plaster wall recess. Pierced metal sconces and modern lighting fixtures add drama, and books on Baker underline the theme. In the bathroom, creamy plaster walls contrasted with black granite countertops, a

pounded-silver sink and ornate silver mirror frame, collectively evoking a sense of boudoir glamour. A roomy walk-in shower and a bathroom entry hall with a mini-refrigerator add utility. As for ammenities, the tiny plunge pool in the lobby atrium is adequate for dangling your feet in after a sweaty day of shopping the souks. There’s also a small hammam, or steam room, off the walled roof terrace where bougainvillea springs from terra-cotta urns and a fireplace is stocked with wood. The manager welcomes guests with a pot of mint tea, a detailed map of the neighborhood and lots of recommendations. Riad Star’s free mobile app offers invaluable GPS guidance

Hasbrouck of Truchas, N.M., took this photo of a colorful lizard that came into view of Hasbrouck’s tour group at the Cajón Anasazi Pueblo ruins in the Hovenweep National Monument in Utah. The group also toured the Canyon of the Ancients National Monument. The trip was sponsored by the New Mexico Museum Foundation’s Friends of Archaeology group.

around Marrakesh, especially in the medina. Rates start at 140 British pounds per night ($221 at $1.60 to the pound), including breakfast. Dining rates include a breakfast of fruit, yogurt, Moroccan crepes, bread and jam with eggs or pancakes optionally cooked to order. Guests can pre-order dinner in the riad for 16 pounds per person, which includes a variety of Moroccan vegetable salads, lamb or chicken tagine and dessert, typically a fresh fruit salad. In the teeming pedestrians-only center of the city, Riad Star offers a quiet and cosseting retreat. Its celebrity history provides a fascinating backstory, while personal service manages to make the hotel feel like home.

Recently widowed James McDow promised his late wife Kathryn he would take great care of her beloved Shetland Sheepdog, McKenzie Gold. So when the 4-year-old Lassie - look - alike disappeared from McDow’s Eldorado home in August, he was devastated. Three and a half weeks later, after nearly giving up hope, "Kenzie" was found after a rancher spotted her on his property near the Eldorado hills. McDow credits Kenzie’s return to countless friends, neighbors and strangers throughout Eldorado and the Santa Fe community who never gave up looking for her, as well as the ad he placed in the Santa Fe New Mexican Classifieds that ran from the day she went missing until the day she was found.
