State spending could increase by 4.6 percent

By Barry Massey

The Associated Press

About $285 million should be available in the next budget year for spending increases on state government programs, public education and to offset potential tax cuts, according to a new revenue forecast released Monday.

If the Legislature and governor agree to put all $285 million into programs and services, that would allow a 4.6 percent increase in spending in the 2016 fiscal year, which begins next July and runs through June 2016.

Top officials in Gov. Susana Martinez’s administration outlined the revenue projections to the Legislative Finance Committee during a meeting in Las Vegas, N.M. The latest financial forecast will shape the debate over spending in next year’s state budget. The committee and the administration will use the figures in the next few months to develop their budget recommendations for the Legislature, which convenes in January for a 60-day session.

Economic growth — particularly from strong oil production — is expected to boost total revenue collections next year to about $6.4 billion. That’s $285 million more than the state plans to spend this year, and

Audio sheds light on confrontation between former police chief and officer accused of payroll fraud Jason Wagner: “I don’t have anything set up showing I’m busy doing work for Santa Fe P.D. when I’m at home. I can’t. I don’t have anything set up to show that.”

Former Chief Ray Rael: “Why wouldn’t you share that with the captain ... or with one of the deputy chiefs just to cover your butt if it was as innocent as you’re saying? Because otherwise, the implication is that you were intentionally abusing leave.”

Add-on charges to total $2.25 billion this year

By Scott Mayerowitz The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Forget bad weather, traffic jams and kids asking, “Are we there yet?” The real headache for many travelers is a quicklygrowing list of hotel surcharges, even for items they never use.

Guaranteeing two queen beds or one king bed will cost you, as will checking in early or checking out late. Don’t need the in-room safe?

You’re likely still paying. And the overpriced can of soda may be the least of your issues with the hotel minibar.

Vacationers are finding it harder to anticipate the true cost of their stay, especially because many of these charges vary from hotel to hotel, even within the same chain.

Coming out of the recession, the travel industry grew fee-happy. Car rental companies charged extra for services such as electronic toll collection devices and navigation systems. And airlines gained notoriety for adding fees for checking luggage, picking seats in advance, skipping lines at security and boarding early.

Hotel surcharges predate the recession, but recently properties have been catching up to the rest of the

ust before Thanksgiving last year, former Santa Fe police Chief Ray Rael summoned Jason Wagner to confront him with allegations that he was falsifying his time card.

“Please understand this is one of the less pleasant aspects of this job,” Rael told Wagner, then a lieutenant with the department. “But the truth of the matter is it needs to be addressed.”

An audio recording of the meeting obtained

by The New Mexican sheds light on the gravity of Rael’s concerns and how close he was to firing Wagner before Wagner resigned in January.

Wagner, who is now the subject of a grand jury investigation into possible payroll fraud, was rehired in July at his previous rank and pay of lieutenant by Santa Fe’s new police chief, Eric Garcia, who last month promoted him to interim captain.

Wagner’s rehiring and promotion has stoked controversy inside and outside the police department.

Attorney John Day, who is representing Wagner, said Wagner is a dedicated policeman who is the victim of “residual politics.”

“It’s getting a little nasty, but it’s not anything that Santa Fe hasn’t seen before,” Day said Monday.

“Jason has done nothing that would disqualify

him from any of these positions. As everyone understands, he was an extremely hardworking, dedicated officer. There may have been officers in the past who may have shirked some of their duties. But there’s no way that Jason was one of them.”

Garcia has called Wagner a “sharp officer” with “fantastic ideas” whose time card “hiccups” warranted progressive discipline, such as a written or verbal warning, rather than being forced to resign.

Before rehiring Wagner, Garcia commissioned Santa Fe-based H & H Private Investigations for $1,135 to conduct “an independent evaluation of the background of Wagner’s resignation,” according to the private investigator’s three-page report.

But by the company’s own admission, the scope of the inquiry was “very limited,” consisting primarily of a review of internal documents and an interview with Wagner.

“It is possible that, if there had been a concern or questions about Wagner’s activities, that less serious progressive discipline steps could have been, and should have been, taken sooner, if necessary,” the report states.

Rael has said publicly that a supervisor such as Wagner needs to be held to a higher standard — a sentiment he also expressed to Wagner during their meeting.

KABUL, Afghanistan — The Pentagon has developed plans that would allow American forces to remain in Afghanistan beyond the end of the year if the contested presidential election drags on and a security agreement isn’t signed soon, the top U.S. military officer said Monday.

Shortly before landing in Kabul for a visit, Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters accompanying him on the trip that under optimal circumstances the U.S. would need about 120 days to pull all troops and equipment out of the country if there is no agreement allowing

Rodella asks state to probe Rio Arriba officials

By Uriel J. Garcia The New Mexican

The office of embattled Rio Arriba County Sheriff Tommy Rodella has asked New Mexico State Police Chief Pete Kassettas to investigate possible misconduct by Rio Arriba County employees, a state police spokesman confirmed Monday.

Reserve Deputy Quintin McShan, a spokesman for the sheriff’s office, said the office turned over a possible criminal matter to state police on Monday but said he couldn’t identify the targets of the investigation.

Lt. Emmanuel Gutierrez, a state police spokesman, confirmed Kassettas will review documents pertaining to the allegations.

The request comes after Rio Arriba County Undersheriff Vince Crespin told three county officials last week that they needed to undergo questioning by the sheriff’s office for an investigation it was conducting, county attorney Adán Trujillo said.

Crespin reportedly made the statement after Rio Arriba County County Commission voted to send a letter to Rodella demanding that he resign as sheriff because of his involvement in various cases that the commissioners said brought discredit to the county.

The cases include Rodella’s Aug. 15 indictment by a federal grand jury on charges that he violated the civil

NATION&WORLD S&P 500 touches 2,000 mark The stock market notched another first on Monday as the Standard & Poor’s 500 index nudged briefly past the 2,000-point mark and closed with its second record high in a week.

The move was the latest milestone in a five-year rally for U.S. stocks, which are enjoying a late-summer revival after dipping earlier this month on concerns about rising geopolitical tensions in Russia and the Middle East.

Investors have put aside those concerns for now, focusing instead on the improving outlook for the U.S. economy and the prospect of rising corporate earnings.

On Monday, traders were encouraged by some high-profile corporate deal news, which overshadowed sluggish sales of new homes.

The S&P 500, a widely followed barometer of the U.S. stock market, crossed above 2,000 in the first hour of trading.

The index fluctuated above and below the milestone mark throughout the day and ended just below the 2,000 mark. The index closed above 1,000 points for the first time in February 1998.

“The index number itself is somewhat symbolic,” said David Kelley, JPMorgan Funds’ chief global strategist. “It’s a continuation of what we’ve seen all year.”

ST. LOUIS hey came by the thousands to pay their respects. Among them were the parents and extended family — some 500 strong — of Michael Brown, the unarmed black teenager who was shot and killed more than two weeks ago by a Ferguson police officer.

But the crowd of mourners also included the Rev. Jesse Jackson; film director Spike Lee; T.D. Jakes, the bishop of The Potter’s House, an African-American megachurch; several members of Congress; representatives from the White House; and two children of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. During a deeply religious service Monday at the Friendly Temple Missionary Baptist Church, several speakers exhorted mourners to work for justice, not just for Brown but for others, long after the funeral was over.

“There is a cry being made from the ground, not just for Michael Brown, but for the Trayvon Martins, for those children in Sandy Hook Elementary School, for the Columbine massacre, for blackon-black crime,” the Rev. Charles Ewing, Brown’s uncle, said.

Speaking before the overflowing crowd, the Rev. Al Sharpton criticized the militarization of the police and their treatment of Brown, while calling on AfricanAmericans to push for change instead of “sitting around having ghetto pity parties.”

On Sunday, relatives of Brown had asked for quiet during the funeral. The fatal shooting had set off weeks of protests and a severe police reaction in Ferguson. Several speakers echoed pleas from

Brown’s family for people to refrain from protesting Monday.

“Please don’t exacerbate the almost unbearable pain of this family,” said Bishop Edwin Bass of the Church of God in Christ. ” Many mourners, most of whom were black, wore buttons showing Brown’s picture, and large photos of Brown stood at the front of the church. Rousing hymns by the Missouri Jurisdictional Choir repeatedly brought the entire crowd to their feet.

Among the family members who spoke, Cal Brown, Brown’s stepmother, said that just weeks before he was shot, Brown had described a dream in which he had seen bloody sheets hanging on a clothesline. “He pretty much prophesied his own death and he didn’t even realize it,” she said, calling him “an awesome man” who wanted to have a family and “be a good father.”

In addition to numerous readings from the Bible, there were readings from King and references to significant court cases in black history. Referring to the original determination in the Constitution that blacks were counted as three-fifths

of a man for the purposes of voting, Benjamin Crump, the lawyer who is representing Brown’s family, said that the teenager “was not threefifths of a citizen.”

Sharpton, the final speaker at the service, criticized inequality and the reaction of the police to the protesters.

Brown, who had just graduated from high school, was shot to death Aug. 9 after a confrontation with an officer, Darren Wilson, along a curving street in Ferguson, a mostly black city where the police force is mostly white. The police described the confrontation as a physical altercation between the two men that left Wilson with a swollen face; others have deemed it a case of needless police aggression and racial profiling. State and federal investigations are underway.

Though Brown was little known beyond his sphere of friends and relatives before his death, his funeral drew a large crowd.

Brandon Lewis, 19, a close friend of Brown, said it was great to see all the people gathered outside the church to pay respects to his friend.

“Love — that’s really brotherly love,” Lewis said.

people are going to see that it certainly wasn’t good, but it wasn’t a catastrophe by any means,” Clay Gregory, president of tourism organization Visit Napa Valley, said as workers at a shuttered downtown visitor’s center updated lists of open wineries and surveyed hotels about cancellations.

CoreLogic Eqecat estimates that losses from the earthquake could range from $500 million to $1 billion. Vineyards have already started to harvest their grapes, crush them and store the juice. If the earthquake had happened before the harvest, Eqecat notes, the losses would have been lower.

In brief Burger King mulls move to Canada NEW YORK — Some Burger King customers are finding it hard to swallow that the home of the Whopper could move to Canada.

Investors seemed to welcome the announcement by Burger King late Sunday that it was in talks to buy Canadian coffee-and-doughnut chain Tim Hortons and create the world’s third-largest fast-food restaurant company. The news pushed shares of both companies up more than 20 percent.

But customers were already voicing their discontent with the 60-yearold hamburger chain because of its plans to relocate its corporate headquarters to Canada in a deal that could lower its taxes. By Monday afternoon, Burger King’s Facebook page had more than 1,000 mostly negative comments about the potential deal.

Weapons convoys spotted in Ukraine KRASNODON, Ukraine — For several evenings this month, convoys of military weaponry passed with clockwork-like regularity through Krasnodon, a rebel-held town in eastern Ukraine near the Russian border.

The convoys were seen three times last week by Associated Press reporters, and one of them carried about 30 units of weaponry and supplies.

All were coming from the direction of Russia and heading west to where pro-Moscow separatists were fighting Ukrainian troops.

NATO and Ukraine have accused Moscow of covertly shuttling heavy artillery and other weapons to the separatists — allegations that Russia routinely denies. NATO says since mid-August, those weapons have been fired from both inside Ukraine and from Russian territory.

Expert calls for nuke plant shutdown LOS ANGELES — A senior federal nuclear expert is urging regulators to shut down California’s last operating nuclear plant until they can determine whether the facility’s twin reactors can withstand powerful shaking from any one of several nearby earthquake faults.

Michael Peck, who for five years was Diablo Canyon’s lead on-site inspector, says in a 42-page, confidential report that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission is not applying the safety rules it set out for the plant’s operation.

The document, which was obtained and verified by The Associated Press, does not say the plant itself is unsafe. Instead, according to Peck’s analysis, no one knows whether the facility’s key equipment can withstand strong shaking from those faults — the potential for which was realized decades after the facility was built.

an Islamist target inside Libya at least once before. In recent months, the officials said, teams of “special forces” operating out of Egypt but possibly composed primarily of Emirates had also successfully destroyed an Islamist camp near the eastern Libyan city of Derna, an extremist stronghold.

Several officials said in recent days that U.S. diplomats were fuming about the airstrikes, believing the intervention could further inflame the Libyan conflict as the United Nations and Western powers are seeking to broker a peaceful resolution.

Officials said the government of Qatar has already provided weapons and support to the Islamist-aligned forces inside Libya, so the new strikes represent a shift from a battle of proxies to direct involvement. It could also set off an arms race on both sides.

“We don’t see this as constructive at all,” said one senior U.S. official.

The strikes have also, so far, proved counterproductive. Islamist-aligned militias fighting for control of Tripoli successfully seized its main airport just hours after they were hit with the second round of strikes.

“In every arena — in Syria, Iraq, Gaza, Libya, even what happened in Egypt — this regional polarization, with Saudi Arabia and the UAE on one side and Qatar and Turkey on the other, has proved to be a gigantic impediment to international efforts to resolve any of these crisis,” said Michele Dunne, a senior associate at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and a former Middle East specialist the State Department.

Syria ready to back fight against Islamic State Damascus warns U.S. not to attack without prior notice

By Ben Hubbard The New York Times

BAGHDAD — Syria’s foreign minister said Monday that his government was ready to cooperate with international efforts to fight the extremists of the Islamic State. But in a nod to the possibility of expanded U.S. airstrikes, he warned that any action inside Syria without the government’s approval would be considered “aggression.”

The offer by the minister, Walid al-Moallem, appeared to be a preliminary effort to rehabilitate the international standing of his government, which has been condemned by the United States and others for its brutal tactics in the country’s civil war and against the popular uprising that preceded it.

Attacks triggers Israeli exodus JERUSALEM — Hundreds of Israelis left their homes along the border with the Gaza Strip on Monday, reflecting growing frustration over the war with Hamas and the Palestinian mortar fire raining down on their communities.

Tens of thousands of Israelis have fled the area in nearly two months of fighting, which has turned the communities into virtual ghost towns.

With the school year fast approaching, the government began offering assistance to residents Monday in the first largescale voluntary evacuation in nearly eight weeks of fighting.

Officials estimate that 70 percent of the 40,000 inhabitants of the farming communities along the Gaza border have left over the course of the fighting.

Some went to stay with relatives and friends, while others are staying at hostels or were taken in by strangers who want to help fellow Israelis.

Fields that once yielded vegetables and flowers are barren and pockmarked by Palestinian mortar shells. Streets are empty and most homes eerily silent.

The fighting has killed more than 2,100 Palestinians, according to Gaza officials, leveled thousands of buildings and left tens of thousands of people homeless.

The death toll on the Israeli side has been much lower, largely because of Israel’s network of air raid sirens, bomb shelters and the Iron Dome missile-defense system.

Obama OKs Syria surveillance WASHINGTON — A senior administration official says President Barack Obama has authorized surveillance flights over Syria in order to gather intelligence on the Islamic State militant group. The official spoke on condition of anonymity.

The move could mark the first step toward U.S. airIn comments to reporters in Damascus, al-Moallem seemed well aware of how greatly the rise of Islamic State in both Syria and Iraq had changed Western views toward the region. He presented his government as the natural partner in the fight against jihadist groups.

“Syria is prepared to cooperate and coordinate regionally and internationally to fight ter-

rorism,” he said, stipulating that all efforts had to go through the Syrian government.

Western alarm about Islamic State, the extremist group that controls a swath of territory across the Syria-Iraq border, has spiked since it released a video showing an Islamic State fighter beheading American journalist James Foley last week.

Al-Moallem condemned the killing of Foley and suggested

that a failed raid into Syria by U.S. special operations forces seeking to free him could have succeeded with Syrian government help.

The United States has been conducting airstrikes on Islamic State positions in Iraq — an effort that officials have suggested could extend into Syria.

Last week, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, said that Islamic State could not be defeated in Iraq without attacks in Syria.

Al-Moallem said strikes launched unilaterally would be considered an act of war. “Any violation of Syrian sovereignty from any side is aggression,” he said.

the strikes. The Egyptian president, Abdel Fattah el-Sissi, and other officials have issued vigorous-sounding but carefully worded public statements denying any direct action by Egyptian forces in Libya.

“There are no Egyptian aircraft or forces in Libya, and no Egyptian aircraft participated in military action inside Libya,” el-Sissi said on Sunday, the state news agency reported.

In private, the officials said, the Egyptian denials had been more sweeping. The officials said the UAE — which boasts one of the most effective air forces in the Arab world, thanks to U.S. equipment and training — provided the pilots, warplanes and aerial refueling planes necessary for the fighters to bomb Tripoli out of bases in Egypt. It was unclear if the planes or munitions were U.S.-made.

tary local snacks and non-alcoholic drinks from its minibars.

Hotels are also revisiting resort fees, upping the price, especially at the high-end.

For $650 a night, guests at the St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort — set on a former coconut plantation in Puerto Rico — enjoy rooms with 300-thread-count sheets and walk-in-closets. But that’s not the full price. There’s a $60 nightly resort charge, which provides for a welcome drink upon check-in, Internet access, the use of beach umbrellas and lounge chairs, bicycles and a daily poolside ritual iced tea service that includes fruit skewers.

Guests pay whether they use the services or not.

Other hotels are adding mandatory tips.

The Fairmont Southampton in Bermuda, which was recently charging $469 a night, charges a resort fee and mandatory gratuities for each person in a room.

So two adults and two kids sharing a room would incur $48.28 a night in resort fees and $40.80 tips — adding 19 percent to the nightly rate.

And the fees aren’t limited to resorts anymore. The Serrano hotel in downtown San Francisco adds on a $20 per night “Urban Fee” that includes Internet, local phone calls, newspapers, morning coffee and use of bicycles.

Perhaps nowhere are hotels pushing fees further than in Las Vegas. Forget resort fees. Those are taken for granted there.

Resorts like The Bellagio are learning from airlines and selling enhancements.

Want to skip the notoriously long Las Vegas check-in lines?

That will be $30 extra. Want to check-in early? That’s another $30. Check-out late? Also $30.

And if you want two queen beds or one king bed, it will cost extra to guarantee your preference. For an extra — you guessed it — $30, the Bellagio will lock in three room preferences such as bed type, requests to be near or far away from the elevators, rooms on a high or low floor or the option to have quieter non-connecting rooms.

Budget: 4.6 percent increase Continued from Page A-1 that amount — viewed as “new money” by legislators — is what’s available for budget increases next year.

The revenue outlook for next year is about the same as when lawmakers developed this year’s budget, which provides for a 4.6 percent spending increase.

Lawmakers were cautioned that volatility in oil and natural gas prices poses a “downside risk” to the state’s revenue forecast.

A $1 change in oil prices causes a $6 million change in revenue for the state’s main budget account, according to Finance and Administration Secretary Tom Clifford.

The state relies heavily on taxes and royalties from energy production, with a little more than $1.1 billion in revenue coming from oil and gas last year. The state peaked at $1.2 billion from energy taxes in the 2008 budget, according to Clifford.

The largest amount of revenue — about $2.2 billion — comes from gross receipts and compensating taxes on goods and services.

Economists for the Martinez administration and the Legislature prepared the revenue forecast and will update it later this year before the Legislature convenes.

According to the latest report: u The state received $146 million more than expected in the 2014 budget year, which ended in June. That helps to replenish the state’s cash reserves, which the Department of Finance and Administration said are equal to about 10 percent of state spending or $579 million. u Revenue should be $56 million higher than expected in the current 2015 budget year, which started in July. That also can help boost reserves but some of the money could be used for one-time spending projects, such as capital improvements, or to supplement this year’s budget for some programs. The better-than-anticipated revenue this year and last year largely stems from oil and gas production. u About $253 million should be available to finance capital improvement projects from bonds backed by severance taxes on energy production.

Transition: Critical time Continued from Page A-1 The transition comes at a critical time as the election of a new president is stalled while an audit is conducted to determine the outcome. The lack of a president-elect creates a dilemma for the United States, which has said that all troops would leave by the end of the year unless the security agreement is signed.

But officials have suggested there is some leeway. If weeks from now there is still no agreement, the military could stay a bit into next year in order to conduct an orderly departure.

“We’ve said we need a [security agreement], not because necessarily we lack the authority to stay beyond the end of the year, but rather as an expression of good faith and good will” by the Afghan government, said Dempsey.

The April 6 voting to elect a successor to President Hamid Karzai resulted in a runoff between former Foreign Minister Abdullah Abdullah and former Finance Minister Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai.

Abdullah received the most votes in the first round but failed to get the 50 percent needed to win. Preliminary results indicated that Ahmadzai was ahead in the runoff. Both men have claimed fraud and an audit is

being conducted to determine who won.

Both men have said they will sign the security agreement that gives U.S. forces the necessary legal protections to stay in the country.

Karzai refused to sign the agreement.

Dempsey acknowledged he is worried about the government transition.

“At some point, a winner will be declared, but the loser will have done pretty well with a certain part of the Afghan people,” Dempsey said. “I think it’s important that they find a way to accommodate [the loser] — that it’s not a victor and vanquished, that there’s a power sharing agreement.”

U.S. officials have been pressing the Afghans to form a national unity government by early September. Secretary of State John Kerry made personal appeals earlier this month to both candidates to find a resolution before the upcoming NATO summit in Wales on Sept. 4.

Dempsey said it’s still unclear if either of the candidates would be able to attend the summit, where NATO leaders are expected to make decisions about their nations’ future roles in Afghanistan.

Afghan forces, meanwhile, are getting hit hard by the Taliban in the south and the east as the peak summer fighting season continues.

Recording: Police chief would have likely terminated Wagner Continued from Page A-1 “As a member of management, you get cut less slack than anybody else does because the minute I sit there and don’t address a problem in management … the union is going to beat me over the head with it,” Rael is heard telling Wagner in the recording.

The recording was provided to The New Mexican by a person who requested anonymity for fear of retaliation. Reached by phone Monday, Rael said he didn’t have a copy of the recording, but when read portions of the transcript, he said he had no reason to doubt its authenticity.

Recalling the conversation, Rael said he didn’t feel he received satisfactory answers from Wagner.

In the recording of his conversation with the chief, Wagner insists he was working a full shift but putting in hours at home to handle a high number of “operational complaints” involving other officers that he couldn’t complete in a shared office teeming with distractions.

But at one point, Wagner admits to Rael that he didn’t ask for permission to work from home because he figured his supervisor wouldn’t allow it.

“I guess my bad for not, at least, for not clearing it with the captain that, ‘Hey, I’m going to do this. Can I do it distraction-free and flex it out?’ I figured he probably wouldn’t give me that leniency, but I should’ve asked,” Wagner tells the chief.

“So you figured he wouldn’t have given you that leniency, so you took it upon yourself to make the decision?”

Rael asks Wagner.

When Rael first confronted Wagner about the allegations, Rael didn’t immediately disclose that he had secretly ordered the placement of a GPS tracking device on Wagner’s police vehicle.

“Over the last few months, we’ve had several complaints that were brought to the captain indicating that you were not working a full shift, that you were never available and that you were basically defrauding the city out of time,” Rael says in the recording. “I’d like to ask for your version of events, find out what you have to say about this in order to, I guess, put the issue to rest.”

“Sure,” Wagner responds. “I mean, I don’t know if there’s a specific question you’re asking that I can address something or, I mean, my hours have

EXCERPTS FROM THE AUDIO RECORDING Police Chief Ray Rael: The complaints apparently have come from several individuals that have indicated that you’re not available, that you’re taking off early, that you’re not working your full eight hours.

Lt. Jason Wagner: OK. And I’m not sure what they mean by ‘not available.’ … I haven’t had an instance where somebody’s called me and said or summoned me somewhere and said, ‘Hey, we need you here,’ and I’m not there.

I’m not sure what they’re talking about in that aspect.

Rael: Well let me ask you directly: Are you putting in your full eight hours per day as required on duty in the city of Santa Fe? Wagner: I would say yes.

uuu Wagner: I don’t have the luxury of an office where I can close the door and just do what I need to do without listening to the radio and dealing with questions from my guys or the sergeants. So, I mean, that’s one of the things that I’ve taken upon myself to just do it at home because then I can concentrate and get it done, and it be even more accurate because I’m not distracted from things that are going on here.

Rael: Well in any case, if you’re doing that, that has to be approved by your captain on a per incident. Have you in fact sought?

Wagner: Not per incident. No. That’s fully on me. … There have been instances where I’ve said, ‘I’ve got typing to do. I’m going to flex this.’ But in all, honesty, no. Absolutely not. I haven’t called him every time and said, ‘Hey, I’m going to do this.’ I’ve just taken it upon myself during a weekend, if I have down time, I’ll just do whatever I need to do and then flex it out later.

uuu Wagner: My bad for not telling the captain every time I was doing that.

Yeah, absolutely I should’ve. I don’t know what to say beyond that.”

Rael: I don’t either, other than it puts me in the situation of having to recommend severe corrective action.

Wagner: I wish I could.

Rael: Give me something that would verify it, so I’m not in that position.

Wagner: I can’t give you anything to say that. You’re absolutely right. I can’t. I don’t have anything set up showing I’m busy doing work for Santa Fe P.D. when I’m at home. I can’t. I don’t have anything set up to show that.

been adjusted and that was with the captain’s blessing.”

Rael says he was aware the captain had adjusted Wagner’s hours from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., as opposed to the regular swing-shift schedule of 12:30 to 8:30 p.m.

“Let me ask you directly: Are you putting in your full eight hours per day as required on duty in the city of Santa Fe?” Rael says.

“I would say yes,” Wagner replies, adding that he had been assigned 11 operational complaints that required transcribing officer interviews, legal research and utmost attention to detail. An operational complaint is a

citizen’s complaint against an officer that doesn’t rise to the level of an internal affairs investigation.

“I use an office that’s shared by two teams as well as my 18 officers that are here when I’m here, so for privacy and to be able to concentrate and type these reports on the operationals, a lot of times I’ll do it from the house,” Wagner says in the recording.

“I don’t have the luxury of an office where I can close the door and just do what I need to do without listening to the radio and dealing with questions from my guys or the sergeants,” Wagner adds. “So, I mean, that’s one of the things that I’ve taken upon myself

to just do it at home because then I can concentrate and get it done, and it will be even more accurate because I’m not distracted from things that are going on here.”

Rael asks if Wagner had received approval from his captain every time he worked from home.

“Not per incident,” Wagner replies.

“That’s fully on me.”

When Rael asks him how frequently he worked at home, Wagner says it might be a few times a week but that he didn’t keep track. “It wouldn’t be every day,” Wagner says at one point during the interview.

A captain who supervised Wagner and sat in on the interview tells Rael that Wagner sought permission to work from home only once.

“Critically, why wouldn’t you let your captain know?” Rael asks.

“Because in the absence of that, I mean, the conclusion is that it was inappropriate.”

“I guess it’s my bad in not telling the captain,” Wagner says.

“Given the number, it’s more than just your bad,” responds Rael as he hands Wagner copies of GPS logs showing that the lieutenant was going home early and taking long lunch breaks.

The logs, according to Rael, revealed that Wagner was sometimes leaving work four hours early.

“We’ve got 28 days [out of about 33] heading home early for extended periods of time almost on a daily basis,” Rael tells Wagner.

Wagner reiterates that he was working from home and sometimes making up for those hours by leaving work early.

“It’s difficult to explain that many and that kind of volume,” Rael says.

“The whole things shows a pattern of you using leave inappropriately. Do you know how serious it is, Jason.”

“I understand, yes,” Wagner replies.

By the end of the interview, Rael informs Wagner that he would seek corrective action and that termination was likely.

“At this stage, the violations are serious enough for me to consider recommendation for termination as the No. 1 possibility,” Rael says.

A few weeks later, Wagner submitted a letter of resignation, ending a 15-year career with the police department.

Rael retired from the department immediately after a new administra-

tion took office at City Hall in March.

After Garcia became police chief in June, Wagner asked for reinstatement. That’s when Garcia hired H & H Private Investigations to look into the circumstances behind Wagner’s resignation.

Investigator Robert Henderson reviewed a report of the findings of the GPS tracking device.

“That report did contain questionable entries concerning lunch breaks and Wagner’s location around the end of his shift times. However, the report did not include any information concerning the circumstances of those days and entries such as what Wagner’s assignment was that day, whether or not he had permission to ‘flex’ his work hours, or whether he may have been working from home on administrative duties,” Henderson’s report states.

Henderson didn’t interview Rael or Wagner’s captain at the time. Henderson also didn’t interview the sergeants with whom Wagner said he was working on schedules or personnel issues during long lunch breaks. Wagner told Henderson that times when he appeared to be parked somewhere for extended periods of time could have been instances in which he was assisting another officer and riding in that officer’s unmarked police car.

But Henderson didn’t interview any of those officers to corroborate Wagner’s statement.

Instead, Henderson reviewed internal documents, including Wagner’s personnel file, which contained no record of disciplinary matters or citizen complaints, and the investigator relied on Wagner to give his version of events.

“We were asked to look at the information that was presented to us from the officer’s personnel file. The scope was very limited. It wasn’t a broad scope. It was very limited,” said Glenn Holmes, president of H & H Private Investigations. “What we’re looking for is … anything in this report to suggest that this officer is unfit for duty.

There was nothing found.”

MONROVIA, Liberia — A Liberian doctor who received one of the last known doses of an experimental Ebola drug has died, officials said Monday.

Separately, Canada said it has yet to send out an untested vaccine that the government is donating.

Ebola has left more than 1,400 people dead across West Africa, underscoring the urgency for developing potential ways to stop and treat the disease. However, health experts warn these drugs and vaccines have not undergone the rigorous testing that usually takes place before they are used.

The experimental vaccines are at still at a Canadian laboratory, said Patrick Gaebel, spokesman for the Public Health Agency of Canada, who declined to speculate how many weeks it could be before those are given to volunteers.

“We are now working with the [World Health Organization] to address complex regulatory, logistical and ethical issues so that the vaccine can be safely and ethically deployed as rapidly as possible,” Gaebel said.

Earlier this month, Canada said it would donate 800 to 1,000 doses of an Ebola vaccine that it developed. Likely candidates include health care workers treating Ebola patients.

The experimental drug known as ZMapp has been tried in only six people. Health experts caution that since ZMapp was never tested in humans, it is unclear whether it works. The small supply is now said to be exhausted and it is expected to be months before more can be produced.

Dr. Abraham Borbor, the deputy chief medical doctor at Liberia’s largest hospital, had received ZMapp, along with two other Liberians. He “was showing signs of improvement, but yesterday he took a turn for the worse,” and died Sunday, Information Minister Lewis Brown told The Associated Press.

There was no update provided Monday on the other two Liberians who received the drug.

Earlier, it had been given to two Americans aid workers and a Spanish missionary priest, who died after he left Liberia.

After receiving rigorous medical care in the U.S., the Americans survived the virus that has killed about half of its victims.

Ebola can cause a grisly death with bleeding from the eyes, mouth and ears. The virus can only be transmitted through direct contact with the bodily fluids of the sick or from touching victims’ bodies, leaving doctors and other health care workers most vulnerable to contracting it.

International relief efforts have included shipments of gloves, gowns, face masks and other protective equipment, although it’s not clear how many have reached health workers struggling to contain the epidemic in West Africa, where even such basics as sterile fluids can be in short supply.

But just getting enough gear isn’t the whole story: Health workers can infect themselves while taking off contaminated equipment if they don’t do it properly, a trio of infectious disease experts wrote Monday in Annals of Internal Medicine.

“The physical exhaustion and emotional fatigue that come with caring for patients infected with Ebola may further increase the chance of an inadvertent exposure to bodily fluids on the outside of the” personal protective equipment, wrote Dr. William A. Fisher II of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, along with Drs. Trish Perl and Noreen Hynes of Johns Hopkins University.

“In addition, the impulse to wipe away sweat in the everpresent hot, humid environment” after taking off some gear, and before washing up, could be enough, they added.

the fund by traffic offenders.

He was never charged with any criminal wrongdoing in connection with the fund.

The commission’s letter also accused Rodella of staging a drug raid at the county jail in Tierra Amarilla, without finding any contraband, just before the primary election.

Rodella, a former state police officer, in 2005 was appointed to fill a vacancy on the county Magistrate Court by Gov. Bill Richardson. Richardson later asked him to resign after learning that Rodella drove from Española to Tierra Amarilla to seek the release of an acquaintance suspected of drunken driving.

The next year, Rodella was elected to the Magistrate Court bench.

But he later was found guilty of misconduct in several cases by the state Judicial Standards Commission, which recommended his removal.

The state Supreme Court agreed with the commission’s recommendation and said he could never again run for judicial office.

LOCAL NEWS King accuses Gov. Martinez of lying Democratic candidate says incumbent’s ads misrepresent his stance on education

By Milan Simonich The New Mexican

New Mexico’s campaign for governor, already negative, turned nastier Monday as Democrat Gary King publicly called Republican Gov. Susana Martinez a liar.

“When the governor tells people what my education platform is, she’s telling an unmitigated lie,” King said at a news conference outside the state Capitol. “She’s running ads that say I’m against [reading] coaches and tutors, and that’s an absolute falsehood.”

Oriana Farrell

Woman who fled from police during a traffic stop near Taos.

King said education is the issue that will decide the November election for governor, and teachers and parents are fed up with Martinez’s policies.

He was joined at his news conference by Charles Bowyer, executive director of NEA-New Mexico, a teachers union of almost 10,000 members that has endorsed King.

Bowyer said King, with a long record of supporting public schools and teachers, is the superior candidate. Bowyer also criticized Martinez for her “top-down” approach in running the public school system.

Martinez’s spokesman, Chris Sanchez, responded by reiterating the charges about King wanting to cut funding for tutoring and reading coaches. The claims were first made in a television ad released

by Martinez last week.

“It’s no surprise that the union bosses stand with Gary King, who wants to put more money into their pockets at the expense of New Mexico’s children,” Sanchez said Monday.

Sanchez also said it is “an undeniable fact” that King voted to raise his own pay while a state representative.

King countered that this was another example of Martinez and her staff lying.

New Mexico lawmakers are not paid a salary, but they receive a daily expense allowance when they are on official business.

In criticism of his own leveled at Martinez, Bowyer said teachers are eager to be held accountable through evaluations. They want to get better, and an honest appraisal of their efforts is welcome, he said. But Martinez has created an evaluation sys-

tem built on “toxic testing,” he said.

Bowyer said he worked hard two years ago for a law that would have mandated a thorough teacher evaluation system. The measure did not clear the Legislature.

Bowyer said Martinez then improperly implemented a system that is overly dependent on standardized test scores of students to measure the effectiveness of teachers.

City restores parking spot for gift shop owner

Minivan driver case could get dismissed Judge proposes dropping charges amid juror controversy

By Andrew Oxford The Taos News

TAOS — Citing objections about the grand jury process, a New Mexico Court of Appeals judge has proposed dismissing the criminal case against Oriana Farrell, the Tennessee woman who was fired upon by a state police officer while fleeing a traffic stop on Oct. 28 with her five children near Taos.

A relative of the state police officer who fired at Farrell’s fleeing minivan served on the grand jury that heard evidence against her, but staff from the 8th Judicial District Attorney’s Office dismissed the woman before the panel issued an indictment.

Farrell was indicted on charges of aggravated fleeing, child abuse and possession of narcotic paraphernalia following the traffic stop that deteriorated into a roadside altercation, shooting and high-speed chase.

In a proposed summary disposition filed Aug. 21, Judge Jonathan B. Sutin suggested staff from the District Attorney’s Office did not have authority to dismiss the grand juror even if there was a valid reason to do so.

“As Defendant argues, our Supreme Court has recently held that the district attorney’s office should play no role in excusing a grand juror, even for good cause shown,” Sutin wrote. “ … It appears the Supreme Court has decided that a grand juror’s request to be excused from a particular proceeding should be directed toward and ruled upon by the district court rather than the assistant district attorney who is assisting the grand jury with its task,” Sutin added.

The handling of the grand jury process by the district attorney’s staff nonetheless prompted objections from Farrell’s lawyers.

“It’s a slippery slope to allow the district attorney to take over here or there,” lawyer Kathryn Hardy told 8th Judicial District Court Judge John Paternoster during a hearing on the issue May 8.

Paternoster dismissed those concerns, however, prompting Farrell’s lawyers to seek a ruling from the Court of Appeals.

But Sutin’s proposal is not a final decision. The Aug. 21 notice gave prosecutors 20 days to file a response.

Prosecutors could also seek to indict Farrell again through another grand jury.

Eighth Judicial District Attorney Donald Gallegos could not be reached for comment Monday afternoon.

Businesswoman says she still needs space for customers to park

By Milan Simonich The New Mexican

onnie Hernández, an 89-year-old Santa Fe businesswoman, got back her parking place Monday.

She called it a partial victory, saying other recent parking restrictions by the city still could sink her small store, the Old Santa Fe Trail Gift Shop.

“I need a parking space for my customers, too. Otherwise, it will kill the business,” she said Monday.

Employees of the city Parking Division created one parallel parking space for Hernández alongside her shop at 529 Old Santa Fe Trail.

C

This was a partial concession by the city, granted because Hernandez has been in business since the 1960s and now needs a cane to walk. Mayor Javier Gonzales personally authorized the parking space for Hernández, said Albert Martinez, operations manager for the Parking Division.

Earlier this month, Martinez’s crew took away all four parking spaces outside Hernández’s store.

Martinez said parking long had been outlawed in that area. But, he said, the restriction was not marked legibly and the no-parking law was not enforced by the city.

Hernandez said she appreciated the city giving her a place to park, but said she would continue negotiating for a second space for customers.

“It wouldn’t cause any traffic problems. My customers don’t stay very long,” she said.

Matt Ross named as new city spokesman

Martinez, though, said he was concerned about congestion limiting access on Pino Road, which runs by Hernandez’s shop to a residential neighborhood.

Artist Carole Pigott, who has a small studio in the area, said Hernandez’s store was never the source of any traffic problems.

Rather, large vans in other newly leased spaces have caused congestion of late, Pigott said Monday.

“Ms. Hernandez could have her parking spaces back and there would be no blocking of Pino Road,” Pigott said.

Hernandez’s shop operates on a limited basis with daytime hours Wednesday through Saturday.

An Albuquerque-based political strategist who has worked for Mayor Javier Gonzales in the past is the city government’s new spokesman.

Matt Ross joined the city staff Monday as a $70,000-a-year public information multimedia administrator, a job previously held by Jodi McGinnis Porter, who resigned to take a job in the private sector.

A news release stressed that City Manager Brian Snyder hired Ross after an open and competitive process.

“After an extremely competitive, transparent application process, and an interview process that included me, our chief of police, our emergency manager, and our interim [Information Technology] department director, we are very confident we have hired a key part of the team to best serve Santa Fe,” Snyder said.

Gonzales also was quoted about the hiring process. “I’ve seen a high quality of work from Matt in the past, and I’m confident in the judgment of our City Manager and the independent interview committee that he’s the right choice,” Gonzales said in the statement. “I’m looking forward to working with him again on one of our top priorities: improving the way we are communicating with Santa Feans about the city we all love.”

Ross managed Gonzales’ successful re-election campaign for the chairmanship of the state Democratic Party in 2011. While Gonzales was chairman, Ross became the party’s director of communications and finance until May 2013.

Ross’ name came up during Santa Fe’s municipal election campaigns earlier this year. Ross is engaged to the regional director of Working America, a nonprofit that spent private dollars to aid Gonzales in his quest for office. Gonzales, meanwhile, used the city’s public financing system for his campaign, which by law must not be coordinated with privately funded campaign efforts.

Ross expressed optimism on his first day on the job. “There are so many amazing things happening in this city right now, and it’s a dream come true to join this team of hardworking people with a clear vision for the future of this community,” he said in a statement.

Snyder said the city’s goal was to hire someone “we found most capable of helping make sure Santa Feans have three things: a government that works for the people, access to information about the exciting work their city is doing, and open channels through which we can hear from them.”

Ross is a founding partner at Bosque Strategies, a political consulting firm. In an email, Ross said he would begin his transition out of the firm “effective immediately and focusing solely” on city government.

He did not respond to inquiries about whether he planned to move to Santa Fe or commute from Albuquerque.

In addition to working for Gonzales and the state Democratic Party, Ross has worked on the campaigns of state Land Commissioner Ray Powell, legislative candidate Elias Barela and U.S. Sen. Martin Heinrich, D-N.M. From November 2007 to January 2008, he was an organizer for the Hillary Clinton for President campaign.

His city job application says Ross has a bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas at Austin.

Task force to help city prepare for climate change Mayor launches group to tackle environmental issues in Santa Fe

By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

Santa Fe Mayor Javier Gonzales is asking a new task force to tackle climate change issues.

The group’s mission will be to come up with a set of concrete actions the city can take to prepare for climate change, molded around plans already created by experts on sustainability, green jobs, food and energy, Gonzales said.

The take force will be chaired by

former Mayor David Coss and City Councilor Peter Ives. It will include representatives from the business community; Sierra Club; renewable energy advocates; and the Global Warming Express, a group started by local young people.

The idea was presented during a Growing Santa Fe Green event held Monday evening at the Santa Fe University of Art and Design.

“The goal is to deliver a set of priorities by which we as a community can act to mitigate and combat the effects of climate change,” Gonzales said in a telephone interview.

Scientists say the Southwest can expect rising temperatures, more frequent intense droughts and changing

precipitation patterns as the global climate changes.

New federal rules have been proposed by the Environmental Protection Agency for reducing carbon emissions from power plants, which many scientists say is a primary culprit in causing climate change.

Many cities, counties and even businesses are looking for ways to

slow climate change and adapt to it.

Increasing local sources of renewable energy, improving recycling rates, improving public transportation and creating a city landscape resilient to drought are projects the city has discussed in the past.

Gonzales said improving the health of forests around the city’s municipal watershed, increasing the number of municipal buildings powered with solar energy, expanding community gardens and improving public transportation are all ways the city can reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate problems anticipated to result from climate change.

Driver: Taos video went viral Continued from Page A-6 In any event, dismissing the case will fall to Paternoster.

“We hope the court of appeals ends this unfortunate incident,” Alan Maestas, an attorney representing Farrell, told The Taos News on Monday.

Sutin’s proposal, he said, is an indication “the system in New Mexico worked.”

“The officers were disciplined. The courts administered justice,” Maestas said.

Farrell’s encounter with New Mexico law enforcement drew national attention when video footage of her traffic stop outside Taos went viral amid three separate shootings involving state police.

In footage captured by a dashboard-mounted camera inside one state police officer’s vehicle, Farrell is seen stopped for allegedly speeding while traveling west on N.M. 518 in a minivan with her five children.

The recording shows that when the officer, Tony DeTavis, returned to his vehicle after a lengthy exchange, Farrell drove away. DeTavis gave chase, and Farrell pulled over again.

DeTavis then removed Farrell from the minivan, but a struggle involving her then-14-year-old son ensued. When Farrell tried to drive away again, another state police officer, Elias Montoya, fired three shots at the fleeing minivan. A high-speed chase ended in front of a Taos hotel where Farrell and her son were arrested after the family piled out of the minivan at gunpoint.

“Ms. Farrell was well aware of issues of police misconduct that were common in Tennessee,” attorneys representing her wrote in a court filing July 23. “And when confronted by a New Mexico State Police officer in a remote area, who was representing to her that her driver’s license was expired when it was not, and who became very aggressive quickly, Ms. Farrell acted in a way that was distrustful of the police, and in protection of her children.”

In a subsequent court filing, Deputy District Attorney Emilio Chávez suggested that summary of events “neglects to inform the court of the actual facts that include the calm and extensive initial interaction with Officer DeTavis before the defendant took off from the officer for the first time, the defendant’s failure to comply with the officer’s instructions, including her son attempting to strike the officer prior to the use of force exhibited.”

Montoya, the officer who shot at Farrell’s fleeing minivan, was fired Dec. 6 following an investigation into use of force during the incident. Other officers involved were reportedly disciplined.

The charges against Farrell’s son, a juvenile, were dropped April 24 following a restorative justice circle.

Ruling frees state from extra charges involving Medicaid

By Patrick Malone The New Mexican

The New Mexico Supreme Court ruled Monday that pharmacies can’t charge the state an additional fee to provide medications to Medicaid recipients.

The ruling overturned a state Court of Appeals decision supporting pharmacies’ rights to charge a fee.

Two Albuquerque pharmacies, Medicine Chest and Pill Box Pharmacy, brought the suit 17 years ago against the New Mexico Human Services Department and contractors administering its managed care program.

The pharmacies challenged a 1994 change in the way the state

paid for Medicaid recipients’ prescriptions when it shifted from a fee-for-service pay system to a less expensive managed care plan.

Until then, the state paid pharmacies the wholesale cost of generic brand pharmaceuticals plus a dispensing fee of at least $3.65 under a statute enacted in 1974.

In a 4-1 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that pharmacies contract with managed care organizations, not the state.

The ruling struck down the Appeals Court decision that the 1978 law enabling pharmacies to charge dispensing fees applied to both fee-for-service and managed care payment models.

“HSD has been confident that the argument made before the Supreme Court that the statue did not apply to managed care organizations was correct,”

said Matt Kennicott, spokesman for the Human Services Department. “With this affirmation by the court, the state will continue to see savings in the millions of dollars, allowing us to further provide care to more of those New Mexicans most in need.”

New Mexico Supreme Court Chief Justice Barbara Vigil cast the lone dissenting vote to the ruling.

Because the Legislature did not undo the 1974 fee-forservice law when it passed the managed care law, Vigil reasoned in her dissent, lawmakers intended for the dispensing fee to pharmacies to remain in place even after the switch to managed care.

Representatives of Medicine Chest and Pill Box Pharmacy did not return phone messages Monday seeking comments on the ruling.

Lu Lu and Chef Chu are the yin and yang of the restaurant: Lu Lu the hostess and Chef Chu the magic behind the wok.

Lu Lu was raised in Shanghai and Taiwan. Her first love was food and her second love was America. When she made the United States her home as an adult, she opened restaurants in Scottsdale and Albuquerque before settling in her beloved Santa Fe. In 2008, during the worst business climate since the Great Depression, she showed optimism and faith in her adopted city by opening a centrallylocated restaurant on Cerrillos Road. The rest is history; for nearly five years she’s been serving up phenomenal Szechuan and Hunan food. Some of Lu Lu’s signature dishes are favorite dishes of many foodie fans and admirers. “I want everyone to be happy and comfortable,” she said. Her warm, easy-going manner and laugh are her trademarks as the restaurant’s gracious hostess.

Chef Chu, who sometimes makes appearances in the restaurant in his baseball cap, hails from Taiwan and came to Lu Lu’s Chinese Cuisine and Bar after a successful run as a chef in Chicago. Chef Chu is a proud father of two daughters currently attending University of New Mexico in Albuquerque. He grins when customers praise his Dragon and Phoenix, a braised lobster tail and chicken dish and his Mixed Seafood in Bird’s Nest and Shrimp Duet. The menu accommodates diners of varied tastes and fancies, like vegetarians, carnivores, omnivores and people who are gluten intolerant. Lu Lu’s granddaughter, who is a country western singer in Texas, makes the trek to Santa Fe frequently to enjoy a home-cooked meal. Lu Lu smiles when she tells the story of a bachelor that came to the restaurant on a dinner date, fell in love over the Peking duck and then celebrated the subsequent wedding in their banquet room.

St. Michael’s High alumnus Aide leaves post to work on found dead in car in Denver Duran’s re-election campaign Philip Lucero, ’84, was shot, police say

By Uriel J. Garcia The New Mexican

Not long after one of his favorite activities, attending a Denver Broncos game at Mile High Stadium, Philip Lucero was found shot to death Saturday night in his vehicle in a Denver residential neighborhood.

The Denver Office of the Medical Examiner said Monday that Lucero, 48, who graduated from Santa Fe’s St. Michael’s High School in 1984, was shot once.

Denver police have released little information about the shooting, which is being investigated as a homicide, but said they hadn’t determined a possible motive for the killing or a suspect as of Monday afternoon.

Detective Mary McIver said Monday that police had received a report about a suspicious vehicle parked in a neighborhood just outside downtown Denver. When police arrived, investigators found Lucero’s body in the vehicle, McIver said. Officials didn’t disclose the location of the gunshot wound or the type of firearm used.

“We’re hoping something breaks and someone calls in who knows or saw something,” McIver said. “We don’t know

where this occurred, but we know where he was found.”

Friends and family in Santa Fe mourned the passing of Lucero, who was in the video production business in Denver.

“As we are preparing to gather for our 30th class reunion this is awful as Phil was a coordinator and an awesome man,” high school classmate Jason Howley said in an email.

Howley said the high school reunion is scheduled for Sept. 5-6, with social events planned on both days. He said Lucero had planned to attend.

“The St. Michael’s High School family expresses their deepest condolences to Mr. Lucero’s family,” said Susan Patten, a spokeswoman for the school.

Lucero’s mother, Teresina Lucero of Santa Fe, said he was the youngest among his six brothers and sisters. Philip Lucero moved to Denver a few years after graduating high school. He met his wife, whom he married in 1994, in Denver.

A LinkedIn profile account shows Philip Lucero graduated from Metropolitan State College of Denver in 1992.

In Denver, Lucero launched two video production companies: Phil Lucero Productions and Transmission Studio. The latter company proved to be successful, family members said. Transmission Studio’s website lists clientele including ABC, CBS, Fox News and

ESPN television networks. He mostly produced sports-related videos, family members said.

“We were impressed with his clientele, and he was glad he was able to film all these things because he loved sports,” his mother said. “He was just proud of his work.”

Delio Bacalski, 38, said his older cousin was a “peacekeeper” and “conscientious person” who always looked for ways to help his family. Bacalski, who lives in San Diego, said he had started an online music magazine, and Philip Lucero would give him tips about how to run a successful company.

“He was always willing to help,” Bacalski said. “So he would always ask me how the company was doing.”

Family members said Philip Lucero was a proud Northern New Mexican. Recently, he had partnered with Hilos Culturales, an organization that promotes celebration of Spanish Colonial folk music and dance, to document the performing arts in Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado. Lucero was producing a video for the group and was recently in Northern New Mexico to videotape performing arts events, his mother said.

“He was learning so much about his culture,” Teresina Lucero said.

She said the family would make arrangements to bury Philip Lucero in Santa Fe.

Rod Adair, who went from politician to well-paid public employee, has resigned from Secretary of State Dianna Duran’s staff to work on her reelection campaign.

Adair managed Duran’s winning campaign four years ago when he was a non-salaried state senator. He decided not to run for a fifth term in the Senate in 2012, and Duran hired him as one of her top aides soon after he left office in January 2013.

Both Adair and Duran are Republicans.

Adair was making $81,103 a year on Duran’s staff. Ken Ortiz, a spokesman for the Secretary of State’s Office, said Adair’s

responsibilities were “oversight of finance and development of public policy.” Adair also worked on elections, a staple of the Rod Secretary of Adair State’s Office.

Adair, 60, resigned from his job Sunday so he could help Duran campaign, Ortiz said.

Democrat Maggie Toulouse Oliver, the Bernalillo County clerk, is running against Duran in the November election.

Adair for 16 years was a state senator representing Chaves and Lincoln counties.

He announced he would seek

But Adair dropped out a few weeks later, leaving a clear path for Burt in a heavily Republican district.

Duran’s subsequent hiring of Adair brought criticism from Sam Bregman, chairman of the state Democratic Party. Bregman called Adair “the most extreme partisan hack available” to help oversee elections.

Duran four years ago became the first Republican to win election as New Mexico secretary of state since 1928. She unseated Democrat Mary Herrera, who had been heavily criticized for her management of the office. of assaulting another man at a bus stop on Airport Road and Camino Tierra Real on Sunday.

New Era of teaching Following injury, jiujitsu fighter finds new purpose working with kids

By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

T

im Valdez’s career as a jiujitsu instructor to children, teens and adults started with a life-changing injury.

Valdez said he hurt himself during a jiujitsu match in 2009, but he didn’t realize how severely until he saw a doctor, who told him he ruptured a spinal disc.

“I walked out of the spine center crying,” said Valdez, a black belt and now the owner of the New Era Gym. The injury meant he could not continue competing at the elite level to which he had ascended. It took a year to recover, and during that time, his right arm remained mostly immobile, making simple tasks such as washing his hair near impossible. But during this hardship, he said, he thought about teaching.

“I thought it doesn’t end here,” said the Santa Fe native. “I can give back to the community.”

In 2011, Valdez started New Era. He proudly explains that he didn’t need a small business loan — he worked both as a plumber and a security guard, squirreling away enough funds to buy the necessary equipment.

Valdez displayed no signs of injury during a jiujitsu class earlier this month at the two-story gym, which is nestled in a business park off N.M. 14 near Santa Fe Tortilla Co. The instructor, clad in a deep-blue karate uniform, commanded a classroom full of shrieking children sprinting back and forth on a padded gym mat. The kids snapped to the wall when he said it was time to stretch.

They jostled one another with bony elbows and knees while to trying to stand as close as possible to Valdez as he demonstrated a hold technique. And they scattered into groups when it was time to practice the hold themselves.

Valdez paced the gym floor, stopping periodically to physically reposition a child’s hand or arm into a better stance.

While the children wrestled, parents watched from the sidelines, chatting among themselves or snapping pictures of the class.

About three or four parents worked out upstairs, following the direction of Melodie Montoya, one of Valdez’s business partners.

New Era has about 70 students, he said.

Valdez said he established a customer base by handing fliers out to people on the street.

He also offered a free 40-day trial for parents and children. It was a gamble, but Valdez said many students chose to stay.

Carmella Trujillo, who has been bringing her three children to New Era for a few weeks, said she was a little hesitant at first — seeing her daughter in a choke hold gave her pause — but watching Valdez work with the children eased her fears.

“He’s very patient,” she said. “He’s very hands-on. He takes a lead with the newbies.”

Richie Chavez said he has been bringing his three children to the gym for the past three months. They adore the practice, he said, so much so that they constantly ask when they’re going back to class. Chavez said he also likes the idea that his children are learning how and when to use physical force to defend themselves.

“There are a lot of bullies out there,” he said.

An entrepreneur who wants to start a restaurant for South Indian food has won the top award in the city of Santa Fe’s bizMIX 2014 competition. Santa Fe’s startup business plan competition took seven teams through a business development and coaching process that culminated in presentations to a panel of judges who decided the awards. The bizMIX 2014 awards are as follows: BizMIX Big Impact Award: Paper Dosa (authentic South Indian food) The judging panel of business development experts, entre-

New Era is mostly a solo business for Valdez, though he does use a few extra instructors in class. He also has a board of directors because New Era is a nonprofit, Valdez said, though it is not tax-exempt.

The gym’s rates vary depending on how many classes students want to take. For just jiujitsu or boxing classes, Valdez charges $60 a month and $100 a month for both courses. The after-school program, which he said has room for a few new students, costs $75 a week and includes transportation from schools, a healthy snack daily, a set study time and a karate uniform, among other services. Valdez said he also has plans to hire a bilingual tutor in the future. He also offers classes to teens and adults.

As for the gym’s future, Valdez wants to continue to offer community services, and he is trying to engineer a plan to offer his classes to those in nursing homes or elderly communities. But his main focus, he said, will be on children.

“Anything I can do for the kids, I am all about it,” he said.

or BJ Pheiffer, it took going to Lovington to find a lender who could finally understand what Greenhouse Grocery, the Santa Fe Community Coop, is trying to accomplish.

But when she found the Western Commerce Bank, it took just a 10-minute telephone conversation and some follow-up documentation for the grocery to get loan approval for $3.68 million to help fund what is envisioned as a nonprofit co-op where members work as a way to keep the cost of their food and produce affordable.

“They understood what a startup is and that we would be backed by our members,” Pheiffer said. “For the bank, it’s really quite amazing. It’s really a compliment to the vision of the coop.”

Pheiffer also said the bank understands rural agriculture and Bruce the healthy-food movement, which Krasnow is a key part of the co-op’s plan for Business Matters financial stability.

Now Pheiffer is hoping to move forward on an agreement for the purchase of the co-op’s permanent home at 2904 Rufina St., the site of the former Santa Fe Greenhouses.

Pheiffer herself has business experience with IBM and JP Morgan, and is a master gardener and chef.

Her board and advisory panel includes author Deborah Madison, local organizer Jeffrey Birnbaum, Tony McCarty of Kitchen Angels and Kate Rowe, a registered nurse.

The Greenhouse Grocery hopes the location near Siler Road would offer service to underserved communities on the south side and provide food options without marketing, packaging or transportation costs.

Pheiffer envisions the site can be used not just as the retail outlet for the grocery, but as a broader initiative to educate families and schoolchildren about nutrition.

The 3.4-acre property has been empty since Santa Fe Greenhouses closed in 2012.

Pheiffer said financing for the project “is like a puzzle,” and part of the loan is dependent on a guarantee from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which promotes rural agriculture and healthy-eating initiatives.

That guarantee has not yet been finalized, so a final closing on the property might still be six months away.

She also expects contributions from local impact investors who want to support a homegrown project.

But the project also depends on Santa Fe residents stepping up to join the co-op — and now is the time, Pheiffer said, as many have been waiting to see where the grocery would be located. “The [bank’s] commitment is conditional on the co-op’s injecting $1.4 million in member and nonmember equity into the project,” she said.

Pheiffer said she has gone slow and even turned down other investors. The reason: “I told them I don’t think a co-op is going to work in Santa Fe unless there is support from our members.”

A business plan put together by Pheiffer, the founder and president, estimates the co-op would have 700 members with $10 million of sales within three years and a gross profit margin of $1.9 million.

“Every Member will pay an annual $25 Membership Fee, make a one-time $100 Pledge, and be required to fulfill the Coop’s work requirement, currently two 2¾ shifts every four weeks. All adults over 21 in your household must be Members,” according to the coop website.

A report by the U.S. Department of Commerce shows how uneven the economic growth was for New Mexico in the last part of 2013.

Yes, there was growth, and it was relatively strong compared with the rest of the United States, as the fourth quarter of 2013 saw state gross domestic product climb 4.5 percent, the sixth best growth rate in the United States. Overall GDP for 2013 in New Mexico was at 1.5 percent, still below the national average of 1.8 percent.

But if you look at what is driving the economic activity, it really comes down to just one or two sectors — mining and real estate rental and leasing. Each contributed 1.45 percent to the growth in the last quarter of 2013 — meaning 65 percent of all the growth statewide came in those two sectors. And my guess is a good part of the second category (real estate rental and leasing) is also connected to the mining sector.

“Mining contributed only 0.27 percentage to real GDP growth for the nation in the fourth quarter of 2013. It was, however, the most prominent contributor to growth in Alaska, Colorado, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, West Virginia, and Wyoming,” according to the report issued by the agency’s Bureau of Economic Analysis.

e-Voices Our Web readers speak out: Plan to make more nuke pits at LANL raises questions, Aug. 23 In light of New Mexico’s social measures (highest teen pregnancy rate, near lowest child wellness), it is absurd to even have a discussion on reviving a Sovietera activity that is an evolutionary dead end. As the article points out, there is a glut of plutonium pits stored at Pantex. Storing what translates into 1 to 4 pounds of plutonium in a nonconforming building on fragile volcanic soils on a seismically vulnerable mesa, when it takes just one inhaled plutonium particle to cause lung cancer, is insane and idiotic. As a mother, it is totally unacceptable to put citizens and especially children at such risk. Our representatives in Washington, D.C., need to get out of their obsolete Cold War mentality and start representing New Mexico’s residents. If they took a poll, I would bet the majority wouldn’t vote for a nuclear weapons empire over an economy that works for everyone.” M.P.

“

“

The fact and the reality is: Would you want to live in this country if it did not have a nuclear stockpile, while everyone else did? Russia and China have continued to modernize their stockpiles and weapons systems.

They’ve never stopped, while the United States has not created a suitable replacement nuclear weapon since 1989 — just life-extension programs. The U.S. stockpile has shrunk. But no matter how low it goes, it will never be accepted by this country’s internal detractors, even if it shrank to nothing. Did I mention the Islamic world and North Korea? If you consider nuclear weapons madness, consider others on the planet who want/have them. Moral conviction is laudable, but only when it recognizes the truth of the world around you. We were the first; we should be the last.” J.B.

LOOKING IN: BILL SOULES

State should end licenses to steal G etting a small loan license in New Mexico is a cinch. Just pay a $1,500 fee to the Department of Regulation and Licensing, show you have $30,000 in capital and a reasonably clean criminal record, and you are in. There were 656 small loan operators in the state at the close of 2013.

The powers that come with a license are astonishing. Outside of a very narrow product area technically defined as payday loans, licensees can charge any interest rate over any period of time with almost any loan terms they choose on amounts of $2,500 or less. Small lenders routinely burden unsophisticated borrowers with interest rates of anywhere between 200 percent to 600 percent and sometimes more than 1,000 percent. In the process, they often point to the licenses on their walls, claiming their products are “state approved.”

That license is, in fact, their license to steal.

While legislators and regulators and the courts have routinely turned a blind eye to this issue, the New Mexico Supreme Court finally injected a note of sanity into lending regulation with the recent King v. B&B Investment Group decision. The court determined that 1,175 percent to 1,500 percent interest loans by two Northern New Mexico lenders were legally “uncon-

scionable” under New Mexico’s Unfair Trade Practices Act. The court ordered the lenders to refund all interest and loan fees in excess of 15 percent APR to affected borrowers.

Unfortunately, the court decision does not impact other lenders, broad categories of existing loan products such as title and payday loans, or loans under 1,000 percent APR. Meanwhile, New Mexico’s small loan licensees are looting the working poor of about $100 million in interest and fees annually. Money that could have been spent with local stores and businesses is siphoned away to the out-of-state corporate interests that dominate this industry.

Independent studies show that the economy loses a net 24 cents per dollar of interest and fees charged by small lenders after accounting for lending jobs created.

Though lenders come up with elaborate justifications for their practices, the bottom line is this: Poorly informed small loan borrowers come back to the same stores repeatedly. Repeat customers are 80 percent of the business. They use these lenders as a source of revolving credit, similar to a credit card. While most of us may pay 12 percent to 15 percent on credit card debt, they are paying triple- and quadruple-digit

interest on consumer loan payments that often soak up 25 percent to 40 percent of their income. For many, this results in a cascade of financial emergencies, from unpaid rent and eviction to unpaid medical bills. The industry destroys lives.

The solution is simple, time-tested and frankly old-fashioned. Reinstate usury laws. At least 16 states have enacted interest rate caps ranging from 17 percent to 36 percent, or placed outright bans on payday and title lending. The U.S. military is in the process of broadening its ban on loans over 36 percent interest to active service members to cover all short- and long-term loan products. They believe abusive lending practices put such demanding stresses on military personnel and their families that combat readiness and national security are compromised.

Two out of three borrowers polled in states that have enacted interest caps say they are better off than they used to be. Almost 90 percent of New Mexicans polled favor interest caps of 36 percent or less. We have speed limits to protect drivers and catch limits to protect fisheries. It’s time to enact interest rate limits to protect borrowers.

State Sen. Bill Soules is a Democrat representing Doña Ana County, District 37.

City panel backs expanded take-home radius for police vehicles, Aug. 18 I just don’t get it. We say we want to attract and “ retain quality police officers, and that we want those officers to live right here and be part of the community.

Wouldn’t both of those goals be better achieved by giving police officers assistance in finding quality housing here in Santa Fe, instead of making it easier and cheaper for them to commute from out of town?” P.K. Let them take the cars, but they must pay for the extra gas and oil changes out of their paychecks.” S.S. I am OK with it. This is needed to recruit and keep officers. Just please have them obey the speed limit when driving to and from work.” P.R. Does the city own 177 police cars, one for each officer? Does this bad policy mean that for 14 hours of each officer’s working day plus three days off, that city asset is sitting unused in some driveway in Rio Rancho? Not only are we bearing the cost for these long commutes but the inefficient use of the cars is unjustifiable. As to the police-living-in-the-community argument, one wonders how many of the Ferguson, Mo., police officers actually live in Ferguson.” C.M.

Thank you, Michael Smith, for all of your hard work and dedication.” R.B. ‘They gave me parameters,’ he said. ‘I could remove the dead stuff.’ I saw the piles of branches. It was not the dead stuff until it was cut off the living trees. I guess it’s easier to beg for forgiveness than it is to ask permission. If that’s the case, don’t use the city to haul away your agenda, haul it yourself, at your expense.” S.S. I wish to thank Michael Smith for the work he has done. I would love to see every Russian olive and Siberian elm removed from Santa Fe, but I know that isn’t going to happen. The cleanup work he has done so far looks great, and I hope the city will stop listening to the minority who complain about everything ever done here.” L.L.

Ringside Seat: Parking dispute puts city in position to show its heart, Aug. 25 Know the area well, having lived on nearby Santa Fe Avenue for some time, and yes, the area does have traffic issues, but taking away Connie Hernandez’s well-used and appreciated parking spot is not going to help solve them by a long shot. And more importantly, she deserves and has more than earned the respect and consideration she is requesting and the allowance made. Give her parking space back. And yes, watch all the other surrounding shop owners complain, but so be it.” J.H. The city better give her what she needs, not only to make her business accessible for herself but also for customers.” C.G.

LOOKING IN: LEO MARTINEZ

Another attack on immigrants H

ere goes Gov. Susana Martinez again, blaming undocumented workers in her bid for a second term as governor.

There are some 11 million undocumented workers in the United States working in the shadows, doing work that others in this country are not willing to do. Instead of using her influence to encourage the federal government to develop a comprehensive immigration policy, Martinez instead attacks undocumented workers when they are only trying to take care of their families.

The governor is lucky to have been born on this side of the border, but her ancestors were born in Mexico. Once here, they worked hard, like so

many other Mexican immigrants have. One of the things my parents, one a New Mexican and the other Leo Martinez a Mexican immigrant, instilled in our family was to “never forget where you came from.” Our governor has forgotten where she came from and is doing battle with her own people. She has forgotten her roots.

In her first run for governor, I believe Martinez played the race card with her own people by promising the Northern New Mexico Hispano Democrats necessary to win that she

would take driver’s licenses away from undocumented workers. She knew full well that there is tension within the Hispanic and Mexican communities. The irony is that we all have the same roots.

The governor promised to help alleviate New Mexico’s problems by refusing to issue driver’s licenses to undocumented Mexicans, thereby forcing them to go back to Mexico. Thank goodness her promise to take licenses away from her own people never happened.

Up for re-election, she is trying to do the same thing again to the Hispanics of New Mexico — saying that denying licenses to the undocumented makes the country safer from

terrorists who might cross the border. Sure, we must have orderly crossings of our border, which a comprehensive immigration bill would provide.

However, the Republicans in the House of Representatives have denied an up or down vote. The governor should be demanding such a vote.

Undocumented Mexicans who cross the border come here with picks, shovels and rakes to do work others will not do in an effort to find opportunities to care for their families. They shouldn’t be targets in a campaign.

Leo Martinez of Ruidoso is a past 2nd Congressional District candidate, past Lincoln County commissioner and a Lincoln County businessman.

Handling made overdose death worse

I

am so sad and angry that precious Desiree Gonzales died May 8 after being treated for a heroin overdose. (“OMI report: Teen in county custody died of heroin overdose,” Aug. 20) at Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center with Narcan. She was rescued only to let her die.

I lost a 20-year-old daughter some years ago to a heroin overdose.

Certainly the worst loss a family can have would be made even worse by a totally mishandled “rescue.”

Copper Rule In reference to Environment Department Cabinet Secretary Ryan Flynn’s column, (“Environment Department has record of success,” My View, Aug. 10), the facts show that the New Mexico Environment Department’s new Copper Rule waives groundwater quality standards for toxic pollutants and expressly allows

copper mines to contaminate groundwater above healthbased standards.

The purpose of the Water Quality Act is to “prevent water pollution.” But the new rule allows contamination from leach stockpiles, waste rock piles and tailings to pollute groundwater above standards.

The rule does not require mining companies to undertake pollution prevention measures that are technically and economically feasible, and that effectively prevent contamination.

Also concerning is that this administration’s Copper Rule paves the way for other polluters to demand similar rollbacks in water-quality protections — dairies, federal labs and other industries will be allowed to

pollute under their sites and risk groundwater pollution to our state’s water supplies.

COMMENTARY: FRANK BRUNI

Finding opportunities through baseball SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. f you were looking last week for a thread of hope amid all the hurt in America and savagery abroad, for something to thrill to and cheer about, this is where you found it, on a baseball diamond in central Pennsylvania that really did amount to a field of dreams.

It was here, at the Little League World Series, that Mo’ne Davis captured the country’s hearts. A 13-year-old wunderkind from Philadelphia, she was believed to be the first black girl to play in the series. She was definitely the first girl ever to pitch a shutout. She landed on the cover of Sports Illustrated, exploded stereotypes about women and sports and did it with a poise and grace that most people twice or even four times her age struggle to muster.

She was some story. So is a lanky white man who watched her from a seat behind home plate, gripped by nervousness, pride and a gnawing regret.

“What haunts me is that for every success we have, there are probably 100 other kids who could be successes but just never had the opportunity,” he told me. “I hope this opened people’s eyes: Kids, given the chance, will excel, whatever their economic background, whatever their race.”

His name is Steve Bandura. He brought Davis into baseball and for many years has coached her, as he has hundreds and hundreds of other inner-city Philadelphia kids going back to the 1990s, when he chucked a well-paying job in marketing to establish a baseball, basketball and soccer league for them.

“These kids had nothing,” Bandura,

As a Santa Fe citizen and Public Service Company of New Mexico ratepayer, I am simply appalled by the lack of long-term vision and poor economic strategy that PNM’s replacement energy plan is offering to the communities it services.

Many stakeholders and industry observers agree that renewables truly arrived when Wall Street investors started taking their profit potential seriously.

Now the industry has hit a new level of mainstream acceptance. Renewables aren’t just seen by financial experts as a siloed opportunity — they’re seen as a widespread threat to their traditional coal investments.

PNM should start paying attention and replace its coal power at San Juan Generating Station with renewable alternatives. PNM needs to keep up with the times.

Well, Wall Street has downgraded utilities that invest heavily in coal because of two reasons: Solar and wind are

now 53, told me. “And you’re going to criticize them for getting into trouble when they have nothing to do?”

He was trying to give them focus, purpose, a point of entry to top high schools and colleges and a purchase on bigger, brighter futures. And he accomplished just that.

Davis is an example: She’s now an honors student on a scholarship at a private school in an affluent Philadelphia neighborhood.

“And it’s not just her,” Mark Williams, her stepfather, told me. “Steve’s done this for so many inner-city kids. He wants to prove that they can go anywhere. I’ve never met a better person, and when I say that, I mean it.”

Recent events in Ferguson, Missouri, reminded how heartbreakingly far apart black and white can be. Bandura and his players provide a glimpse of a different, better possibility.

“The guy is a Disney movie,” said Maximillian Potter, a Denver-based writer who grew up with him in a white working-class area of Philadelphia where racism was prevalent.

Bandura vividly remembers a conversation he once overheard between his father, a machinist and a landlord in the neighborhood who said that he’d had to throw out a stack of applications from prospective renters. All of the applicants were black.

Bandura’s father didn’t talk or think like that.

“He would go to whatever lengths were necessary to help anyone,” Bandura said. Noting that he and his two sisters were adopted, he told me, “I always felt

his year, Santa Fe was more than big enough to hold two nearly side-by-side markets showcasing the best of Native art and culture.

The upstart Indigenous Fine Art Market ran last Thursday through Saturday at the Santa Fe Railyard, and, of course, the venerable Santa Fe Indian Market took over the Plaza and downtown on Saturday and Sunday. Judging from photos, social media accounts, conversations and a few strolls through the streets, both succeeded on every level. We doubt some marketgoers even understood there were two events; what they did know is that their opportunity to buy art and meet artists had expanded — having the new market in the Santa Fe Railyard brought Native art to a different venue on different days. (The setting was ideal, exactly the kind of event that planners of the Railyard Park envisioned.)

The new Indigenous Fine Art market also put together a top-notch slate of entertainment, cultural dances and fashion events, all designed to share the modern Native culture with our corner of the world. And at Santa Fe Indian Market, there was the always glorious preview on Friday night, with the best of the best art gathered in one place for just a few short hours. The collection, as always, was dazzling, with the Best of Show prize being awarded to a traditional Navajo weaver, Lola Cody, for a rug woven in the Two Grey Hills style. She even raised the sheep and sheared its wool herself.

For the weekend of Indian Market, there was the usual abundance of art, food, entertainment, cultural activities and so much more going on all over town.

The existence of both markets increased energy and excitement for the entire week leading up to Indian Market. We congratulate the Indigenous Fine Arts Market for a successful launch, and remain amazed at the Southwestern Association for Indian Arts’ ability to survive the many challenges that come with putting on the largest Native art show in the world year in and year out. Already, we are looking forward to 2015, which will bring the second Indigenous Fine Art Market and the 94th Santa Fe Indian Market.

What happened last week in Santa Fe is a lesson: More opportunities to sell and more opportunities to meet and cultivate collectors is good thing. Our city is richer because of it, and most importantly, Native artists benefited.

Get ready to burn him

like the luckiest kid alive. I felt like I won the lottery.”

Sometimes gratitude begets generosity. When Bandura started the inner-city sports league, which was initially for kids ages 5 to 8, he wasn’t even paid.

The work remains a considerable financial sacrifice, although he now runs the program as an employee of the Philadelphia Parks and Recreation Department, out of the Marian Anderson Recreation Center in South Philly.

Soon after the league was born, he extended its age range and began taking the best of the older kids and putting them on a traveling baseball team called the Anderson Monarchs, with which Davis and six of the other 11 players on the squad at the Little League World Series are affiliated.

And he turned the Monarchs into more than just a team.

It was a finishing school. He’d bark at the kids about manners, posture, tucking in their shirts and chewing with their mouths closed.

It was a history lesson. He made them read up on Jackie Robinson, the Negro Leagues, civil rights.

It was a home away from home. For many Monarchs, Bandura was a second father. For some, he was the only one.

“It’s bigger than baseball,” said Bandura’s wife, Robin, who is black. “It’s a culture. It’s about discipline and self-respect and camaraderie: things that don’t really get taught a lot of places.”

From the Santa Fe New Mexican: Aug. 26, 1914: Roswell — The annual camp meeting and conference session of the New Mexico conference of Seventh Day Adventists will convene on Thursday, Aug. 17.

he winding down of summer in Santa Fe gets a shot of fun with the annual burning of Zozobra and the Santa Fe Fiesta.

This year, of course, Zozobra is moving to a Friday night — this Friday night, in fact. The Santa Fe Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe persuaded the City Council and the Fiesta Council that by holding the burning of Old Man Gloom on the Friday before Labor Day, there would be an opportunity to share this unique event with more people. Zozobra will lead seamlessly into the Labor Day Arts and Crafts Fair put on by the Fiesta Council, and next week, the city will prepare for Fiesta proper. (And, if Friday night goes smoothly, perhaps some day, Zozobra can move back to the Friday of Fiesta, where it would belong barring safety concerns.)

We like a Friday night rather than the Thursday night of the past decade or so — families don’t have to worry about getting kids up for school the next day, and out-of-town relatives can make it in after work on Friday and not have to drive home. But Friday brings crowds, so don’t forget to buy tickets before the day of the event. People get through the gates more smoothly if they have their tickets ready. Tickets are available at burnzozobra.com, the Lensic Performing Arts Center and at selected credit unions around town. As promised, the Kiwanis Club — the group that puts on Zozobra — has kept prices affordable. Cost is $10 a ticket, with children under 10 free.

There’s been plenty of gloom in 2014. Zozobra couldn’t be more welcome this year.

Amazon could become the ESPN of video games in Twitch deal NEW YORK — Amazon is hoping to become the ESPN of video games. The e-commerce giant is buying streaming platform Twitch Interactive for $970 million in cash as it seeks to take part in video gaming’s growth as an online spectator sport.

Twitch is a multi-channel online network built for a generation of people who not only enjoy playing video games, but find it entertaining to watch others who might impart tricks and tips for excelling at their favorite games.

Amazon’s purchase is an acknowledgment that gameplay video feeds are increasingly lucrative. Twitch had 55 million unique visitors in July, up from 20 million in 2012. Most visited the Twitch. tv website to watch other people play live or recorded games — competitions interspersed with advertising.

Digital video advertising in the U.S. is expected to reach $5.96 billion this year, accord-

ing to eMarketer, up 41.9 percent from 2013.

“Broadcasting and watching gameplay is a global phenomenon and Twitch has built a platform that brings together tens of millions of people who watch billions of minutes of games each month,” said Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos in a statement.

The deal is the latest example of Amazon expanding into new commercial arenas.

It introduced its own smartphone, the Fire, this month.

Earlier this summer, it added same-day delivery, a set-top video streaming device to its list of services for members of Prime, its $99 annual loyalty program.

Twitch CEO Emmett Shear said Amazon is a good fit because “they believe in our community, they share our values and long-term vision.”

Google had been in talks to buy Twitch, but no deal materialized.

‘Breaking Bad’ scores at Emmys

By Lynn Elber The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES oth Modern Family and Breaking Bad triumphed at Monday’s Emmy Awards, proving that established broadcast and cable fare retains the power to fend off challenges from upstart online series such as Orange Is the New Black.

The ceremony’s emotional high point came with Billy Crystal’s restrained and graceful remembrance of Robin Williams, who was found dead Aug. 11, an apparent suicide.

“He made us laugh. Hard.

Every time you saw him,” Crystal said of Williams at the conclusion of a tribute to industry members who died within the past 12 months.

“Robin Williams, what a concept.”

ABC’s Modern Family won a fifth best comedy series Emmy, tying the record set by Frasier, while the final season of AMC’s Breaking Bad captured the top drama award and a trio of acting honors for its stars.

Netflix’s freshman Orange Is the New Black, which competed for best comedy series despite its dark prison setting, failed to sway Emmy voters, as did Netflix’s sophomore series House of Cards.

Bryan Cranston was honored as best actor in a drama for Breaking Bad, proving that True Detective nominee Matthew McConaughey’s moviestar appeal couldn’t conquer all.

“I have gratitude for everything that has happened,” Cranston said. His victory ties him with four-time best drama actor champ Dennis Franz.

Cranston’s co-stars Aaron Paul and Anna Gunn were honored in categories for best drama supporting acting — he for the third time and she for the

second straight year — and the series won its second consecutive best drama award.

“Thank you for this wonderful farewell to our show,” Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan said of the series about a teacher-turned-drug kingpin that ended with a bang.

A broadcast win was scored

by ABC’s The Good Wife star Julianna Margulies, honored as best lead actress in a drama series. “What a wonderful time for women on television,” Margulies said.

McConaughey was the object of too-handsome jokes by presenter Jimmy Kimmel and adoration by winner Gail Mancuso, honored as best director for an episode of Modern Family. It was one of the better gags of the night.

“If you don’t mind, Matthew McConaughey, I’m gonna make eye contact with you right now,” she said from the stage, making good by holding the actor’s gaze for much of her speech.

CBS’ The Big Bang Theory star Jim Parsons was crowned as best comedy series actor, giving him his fourth Emmy and putting him in league with all-time sitcom winners Kelsey Grammer and Michael J. Fox. Modern Family also captured a best comedy supporting actor trophy for Ty Burrell.

Allison Janney was honored as best supporting comedy actress for CBS’ Mom, adding to the trophy she’d already picked up as guest actress on Masters of Sex. Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who received her third consecutive best comedy actress Emmy for the political comedy Veep, drew big laughs as she stopped to exchange faux heated kisses with Cranston, who earlier was her co-presenter and who appeared with her on Seinfeld.

It didn’t take long for Eric Brock to get a taste of what it’s like to be the head football coach at Santa Fe Indian School.

Hired to replace Jonathan Toya in the last few weeks of the spring semester, the Menaul School product and former University of New Mexico graduate assistant found out that there is no quick fix for the Braves football program.

U.S. OPEN

But it’s not for a want of trying.

“I was here, what, two weeks and then school ends and these players scatter,” Brock said. “You don’t get a summer program when you coach for a school where everyone goes home for the summer.”

To know Brock means accepting the fact that it takes more than a few bumps in the road to stop the son of a man who made a liv-

Eric Brock takes over as head coach at Santa Fe Indian School, a program challenged by low turnout and tough times. The Braves have not won more than three games in a season since 2010, and they haven’t had a winning season in nearly a decade.

Murray grits through cramps to win

By Rachel Cohen The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Spinning in 70 mph second serves, grabbing at his hamstring during points, Andy Murray gritted his way through head-totoe cramps to win at the U.S. Open.

Murray outlasted Robin Haase 6-3, 7-6 (6), 1-6, 7-5 in the first round Monday during an afternoon that was hot but not particularly humid. He was mystified that the cramps came on so early — at the start of the third set after only about an hour and a half on court.

“When it starts to kind of go everywhere, you don’t know exactly where it’s going to creep up next,” he said. “When you stretch one muscle,

Questions arise for fantasy day game biz

Some of the newest incarnations of fantasy football look a lot more like gambling than intricate, outsmartyour-opponent strategy games.

Since 2011, the billion-dollar fantasy market has been infused with dozens of daily and weekly games.

Those games allow players to win huge prizes quickly, sometimes in one week, sometimes in just one night.

With players betting thousands or even tens of thousands a night, legal experts believe it’s time to review the section of the 2006 federal law that was written specifically to protect fantasy sports from being banned the

Fast start helps Capital beat St. Mike’s in nondistrict match

By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

n the surface, the Capital boys soccer team looks different, but it proved that it is still a threat in Class AAAAA. The Jaguars started fast and beat St. Michael’s 4-1 in a nondistrict soccer match Monday at Christian Brothers Athletic conference to improve to 2-0.

Capital may have lost scorers and vocal leaders Jason Alarcon, Luis Rios and Brayon Perez to grad-

uation, but returning senior Jesus Garcia is ready to fill their cleats.

“Ever since they left, they told me it’s my time to step it up,” Garcia said. “I look up to those guys.

They’re a great example of what I’m doing right now, and they expect me to do more.”

Garcia scored the first goal of the match when his shot from the right corner went right through the gloves of St. Michael’s goalkeeper Connor Burnham in the ninth minute.

“I was actually trying to center it, but it bounced in,” Garcia said.

While St. Michael’s didn’t lose the scoring threats that Capital did, it lost both of last year’s goalkeepers in Chris Legits and Tyler Trollinger.

Burnham, a junior, played his first varsity match

Monday after tending the net on junior varsity, and St. Michael’s head coach Merritt Brown says this match will only help him fit into his new role.

“I think he had some nerves today, but I think he’s going to get better and better,” Brown said.

Three minutes after letting a goal slip through his fingers, Burnham allowed a goal from one of his fellow teammates after a St. Michael’s own-goal on a Capital corner kick gave the Jaguars an early 3-0 lead.

Two minutes after that, St. Michael’s junior forward Ian Watson put up a shot that arced right over 6-foot-4 Capital goalkeeper Rene Arroyo to put the Horsemen on the board.

NBA

Bavetta looks back on a lifetime in basketball

By Tim Reynolds The Associated Press

Dick Bavetta never missed a game.

Fortunately for him, not everyone has that same sense of devotion.

The year was 1966, and Bavetta was in a stockbroker-league basketball game at the Downtown Athletic Club in New York. His team played in the first game on the schedule that night. The game ended, Bavetta grabbed a quick shower and returned to the court because his brother — a police detective — was one of the referees working the second game.

His brother’s partner never showed. So Bavetta grudgingly agreed to take his place.

And with that, what became a 48-year odyssey of blowing the whistle got underway.

“Otherwise,” Bavetta said, “I prob-

ably would be a burned-out stockbroker right now.”

Turns out, that night marked the most ironic of beginnings. After 39 years in the NBA and without a single missed assignment — a source of immense pride for one of the game’s most recognizable referees — Bavetta has made his last call.

He has officially retired, a decision announced by the league last week and marking the end of a career that saw him work a record 2,635 consecutive games, including 270 playoff contests and 27 NBA Finals games.

The rigors of travel especially this past winter, holidays spent separated from family, nights away from his wife Paulette and their 460-acre ranch in Ocala, Fla., it all took a toll on the 74-year-old Bavetta.

PREP ROUNDUP

Prep christens new field with win The New Mexican

The Santa Fe Preparatory boys soccer team on Monday opened its new field with style.

In the inaugural game at Sun Mountain Field, which is across the street from Prep’s campus and is shared S.F. Prep 9 with St. John’s College, the Blue Griffins shutS.F. High 0 out Santa Fe High 9-0 in a nondistrict soccer match.

Prep (1-0) freshman Logan Sullivan led the scoring with a hat trick.

“He’s a solid player,” Prep head coach Hersch Wilson said. “He’s beginning to fit into the role of a high striker.”

Junior Sam Brill scored two goals, while seven other Blue Griffins got individual goals.

“We were moving the ball very well and we were defending well,” Prep head coach Hersch Wilson said. “You can’t be unhappy with the effort. Nobody slacked off.”

Prep and Capital were supposed to play

Wednesday, but Capital canceled in favor of a tournament at Albuquerque Academy this weekend. The Blue Griffins will play at the Louie Cernicek Tournament in Los Alamos and will play the host team at 9 a.m. Friday.

Santa Fe High dropped to 1-3 on the season.

GIRLS SOCCER SANTA FE HIGH 6, SANTA FE PREPARATORY 0 Elena Lemus was on fire as she led the Demonettes with four goals over the Blue Griffins in both teams’ season opener.

Senior forward Ursula Vold scored a goal in the second half, and senior defender Vanessa Zambrano nailed a long ball in the 63rd minute.

“She just hit a rocket from 35 or 40 yards out,” Santa Fe High head coach Keith Richards said.

While Santa Fe High’s offense was firing on all cylinders, there are still some uncertainties on defense. Richards started fresh-

man goalkeeper Bobbie Stacks in the first half and replaced her with freshman Imani Randall in the second. They were relatively untested Monday, and Richards is still uncertain who he is going to start against St. Michael’s on Friday.

“We’ll see as the week progresses to see who to start on Friday,” Richards said. “The test will come Friday when they have to make more saves.”

ST. MICHAEL’S 5, CAPITAL 0 The Lady Horsemen opened their season with two goals from Monse Camarena and three assists from her sister, Adriana Camarena, to keep the Lady Jaguars winless.

St. Michael’s (1-0) has been moving a lot of players around to compensate for departed seniors, but head coach Robyn Serge said the team is still in good shape.

“We did well considering that we have a whole new starting lineup,” she said. “I was able to see what everyone can do. We lost three starters on the back line, so we’ve been working on that.”

Capital fell to 0-2 on the season.

Continued from Page B-1 with his team’s two quick goals, but he admits his players may have loosened up after.

“It was nice to get a fast start, but then I thought we relaxed,” Doyle said. “We weren’t pressing the same as we were earlier defensively, and we got a little lazy. I think that one goal that they got woke us up and got us back to playing more aggressive defense.”

When the Jaguars did wake up, junior midfielder Kevin Sanchez put another goal in the net in the 25th minute to send Capital into the intermission with a 3-1 lead.

Capital midfielder Guillermo Navarette put a shot in the lower right corner of the net in the 62nd minute for the final goal of the day. The Jaguars were seemingly more comfortable because they already played a match against Taos, but it was the first action the Horsemen have seen this year.

Brown wasn’t expecting his team to be in midseason form.

Instead, he was hoping for a contest that would pay dividends later in the season.

“We were a little intimidated because they were the first live bodies that we’ve gone against.

It’s not a great score, but as I told them earlier today, it’s not about the score [Monday]. We really don’t have to be playing

really, really well until the tail end of the season. We’re just trying to be as patient as we can.”

Of course, who better to start the season against than a team that made it to last year’s AAAA semifinals?

“I couldn’t pick a team I’d rather play against,” Brown said. “They are just so quick

and their ball skills are great.”

Capital has some work to do too. Although about a dozen players returned from last year, a lot of them didn’t get meaningful varsity minutes.

“Everyone got to play, so we’re just trying to get everyone the experience they need before districts,” Doyle said.

“A lot of guys played varsity last year, but they didn’t get as many minutes as they’re going to get this year. We’re still trying to build our chemistry and our shape on the field.”

There may be a lot of new players on the field, but there is still a lot of influence from last year.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Continued from Page B-1 ing making something out of nothing at the small boarding-school level. His father, Gus Brock, spent more than 20 seasons at Menaul before being coaxed out of retirement this summer to take one more shot at being the head coach at the tiny Albuquerque program.

With most of the SFIS players hailing from pueblos well outside the Santa Fe area, it meant Brock had to make the most of planning a new team playbook without teaching it to the players first hand.

“I know what it’s like because my dad has done it,” Brock said. “I know what to expect. I’m from Laguna and Santa Clara pueblos. I have family who has coached here and been superintendents here. I want to make those people proud and give these kids a great experience here.”

Using that line of thinking, Brock isn’t expecting much. The Braves have failed to win more than three games each of the previous four years. They return a roster that finished last season with only 17 players, most of whom return this season.

Along with them they’ve brought new faces practically every day. As of Monday there were 31 varsity players on the field with five more showing up in the minutes before practice to say they wanted to suit up.

“The numbers are getting better, but it’s still not where I want them to be,” Brock said.

“He tells us that before the end of every practice, to bring out the new guys,” said Alejandro Hernandez, a senior lineman who will start at defensive end and offensive guard.

“We’re always looking for new players,” said junior Ryan Luarkie, the projected starter at running back. “Coach is more organized than the last coach, so I think it’s easier to be a player for him. He takes time to explain the plays instead of running them once and moving on, then having us all confused.”

Like so many SFIS teams from the past, this year’s club will operate in the prep

football purgatory that is independent ball.

Technically a Class AAAA school in all sports, SFIS will once again play an entire season as an independent.

Doing so eliminates any chance of a postseason berth since the Braves are not affiliated with a district. Most of the time, it is not an issue since SFIS tends to hover just below .500. There have been exceptions, like the undefeated season under former head coach Ernie Rodriguez, the one that ended without a playoff berth and no real claim to supremacy.

Brock isn’t predicting similar success this year. With barely a week of practice under the team’s belt, he admits the Braves will go into Saturday’s season opener against Cuba largely untested.

“Maybe in the future we can use the bye week every team uses and put it on that opening weekend,” Brock said. “I’m not going to lie to you: We’ve got a lot of question marks going into our opener and we’re not sure what we’re going to have until we come out of it and look at what we’ve done.”

Brock has installed a hybrid version of the West Coast offense, leaving untested freshman Alec Lee in charge of the entire thing. Lee has never played a single down under center, much like a handful of other projected key contributors to this season’s club.

When he looks at the big picture, Brock said he would rather grind games out than rely on an offense that is still learning the terminology.

“Every team in high school football is trying to outscore the other team, but not us,” he said. “If I can win a game 7-0 with solid defense, I’ll take that every time. I want this team to control games by limiting the damage in back.”

Having studied under former UNM coaches Dennis Franchione and Rocky Long, Brock said he’s taking equal parts of each man’s philosophies and implementing them onto his own program.

“Coach Franchione was more of a CEO and Rocky was more of a player’s coach, a

SANTA FE INDIAN SCHOOL BRAVES Head coach: Eric Brock (first season) Last year: 3-7 (no playoffs; played as an independent) Returning lettermen: 15 Returning starters: 5 offense, 5 defense Key players: Ryan Luarkie, junior, 5-foot11, 176, RB/FS; Alejandro Hernandez, senior, 6-0, 230, OG/DE; Logan Vicente, senior, 6-1, 168, TE/LB; Alec Lee, freshman, 5-9, 135, QB/DB; Devin Sherwood, senior, 5-9, TB/FS; Kyle Aguilar, senior, 5-10, 158, WR/DB Outlook: The new West Coast offense will be entrusted to a freshman who has never taken a varsity snap; the defense is going to employ a 3-3-5 meant to bend but not break. That’s the plan. If it works, the Braves could score a few upsets along the way and carry the momentum of last season’s end — two wins in the final month — moving into a new era under a new head coach.

Fast facts: The Braves haven’t had a winning season since 2005 and haven’t won more than three games in a season since going 4-6 in 2010 under former head coach Ernie Rodriguez. … SFIS is one of only three schools in the state competing this season as an independent, and the only club at the 11-man level (Calvary West Christian and Clovis Christian in 6-man being the others).

Although technically a AAAA school, SFIS has been an independent in football for the last three years.

“If I can do that here, if I can get these guys to play for me like that — I think we’ll all have fun. If that means three wins or 10, I don’t know. But we will have fun.”

AMERICAN LEAGUE

Orioles hit 5 HRs in win over Rays The Associated Press

BALTIMORE — Delmon Young, J.J. Hardy and Chris Davis homered in succession during a Orioles 9 six-run fifth inning, and Rays 1 the Baltimore Orioles cruised past the Tampa Bay Rays 9-1 Monday night to end a three-game losing streak.

Baltimore hit five homers in all, four off rookie Jake Odorizzi (9-11). Nick Markakis and Steve Pearce delivered back-toback shots in the third to spark the Orioles to their ninth win in 13 games against Tampa Bay this season.

After totaling four runs and 13 hits in three road losses to the Chicago Cubs, the Orioles got 14 hits against a Tampa Bay staff that had a major leaguebest 2.28 ERA since the All-Star break.

Chris Tillman (11-5) yielded an unearned run and three hits in seven innings. He is 4-0 in eight starts since July 18.

ATHLETICS 8, ASTROS 2 In Houston, Jeff Samardzija pitched eight solid innings, and Josh Donaldson drove in three runs to lead Oakland over the Astros.

Samardzija (4-3) allowed six hits, two runs and tied a season high with 10 strikeouts to bounce back from a two-game skid in which he yielded 11 runs combined.

Josh Reddick hit a two-run homer and Donaldson had three hits after sitting out Sunday with a knee injury. Donaldson doubled twice for his first extrabase hits and RBIs in his last nine games.

Reddick’s 10th home run sailed into the seats in right field to push Oakland’s lead to 3-0 in the fourth.

RED SOX 4, BLUE JAYS 3 (10 INNINGS) In Toronto, Yoenis Cespedes singled home the go-ahead run in the 10th inning, and Boston survived a ninth-inning collapse to beat the Blue Jays, snapping their losing streak at eight games.

Cespedes has 19 RBIs in 22 games since being traded to Boston on July 31. Seven of those 19 RBIs have given the Red Sox a lead.

Brock Holt hit a one-out single off Aaron Sanchez (2-1) in the 10th and stole second as Dustin Pedroia struck out, with the steal confirmed by video review. Holt stole third before Cespedes drove him in with a single up the middle.

Boston won for the first time since August 16 against Houston and snapped a six-game skid against the stumbling Blue Jays, who dropped to 6-15 in August.

Koji Uehara (6-4) got the win despite blowing his fourth save in 30 chances, and Craig Breslow finished for his first save in two chances.

YANKEES 8, ROYALS 1 In Kansas City, Mo., Derek Jeter drove in two runs in his final scheduled trip to Kauffman Stadium, backing a sharp outing from Michael Pineda and helping New York beat the Royals for their fifth straight win.

Jacoby Ellsbury drove in a run in the seventh inning with the 1,000th hit of his career, then added a two-run homer in the ninth. Stephen Drew and Martin Prado also homered for New York.

Pineda (3-2) gave up a solo shot to Mike Moustakas leading off the third inning, but that was about it in his third game back from the disabled list.

Pineda struck out five without a walk in 6⅓ innings to win for the first time since beating the Cubs on April 16.

RANGERS 2, MARINERS 0 In Seattle, Miles Mikolas allowed three hits in eight scoreless innings, J.P. Arencibia singled home the go-ahead run in the fourth and Texas opened a three-game set against the Mariners with a win.

Mikolas faced two batters over the minimum, erasing two of the three hits he allowed with double plays. The righthander struck out five and walked one. It is the first time Mikolas has not allowed a run in 10 career starts.

Holliday’s hit lifts Cardinals over Pirates The Associated Press

PITTSBURGH — Matt Holliday’s two-run single in the seventh inning off Jared Hughes capped a late rally, and the St. Louis CardiCardinals 3 nals beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-2 on Pirates 2 Monday night.

Jon Jay’s pinch-hit single tied the game with two outs in the seventh and Holliday followed with a sharp single to left off Hughes (6-4) to score Jay and Matt Carpenter.

John Lackey (2-1) worked out of trouble early to work seven innings and pick up his second victory with the Cardinals after arriving in a trade from Boston on July 31. Trevor Rosenthal gave up a leadoff home run in the ninth to Andrew McCutchen but held on to earn his 39th save.

Pedro Alvarez hit his 18th homer in the second off Lackey, but the Pirates managed little after that to fall further behind St. Louis and first-place Milwaukee in the NL Central race.

Pirates starter Francisco Liriano overwhelmed the Cardinals for the first five innings, striking out eight and

RedHawks beat Isotopes in 3-0 shutout The Albuquerque Isotopes picked up their third straight loss Monday after being shut out 3-0 on the road by the Oklahoma City RedHawks in Pacific Coast League play.

Second baseman Walter Ibarra got three hits for Albuquerque (59-77), but he was only one of three Isotopes to get a hit.

Oklahoma City scored a run in the bottom of the second inning, and

looking very much like the ace that led Pittsburgh with 16 victories a year ago.

He tired in the sixth but worked out of a bases loaded, one-out jam when Oscar Taveras hit into a third-to-hometo-first double play.

PHILLIES 3, NATIONALS 2 In Philadelphia, A.J. Burnett struck out 12 in seven innings, and Cody Asche and Carlos Ruiz homered to lead the Phillies to a victory over Washington.

Domonic Brown had two hits and an RBI for Philadelphia, which won for the

the Isotopes were able to keep the RedHawks at bay until they scored two more runs in the bottom of the eighth.

The Isotopes will play two more games in Oklahoma City before returning to Albuquerque on Thursday to start the final series of the season against the Las Vegas 51s.

The New Mexican

fourth time in five games.

Wilson Ramos and Anthony Rendon homered for NL East-leading Washington, which lost for just the second time in 14 games.

Burnett (7-14) won for the first time since the All-Star break, allowing one run on three hits with just one walk. The right-hander entered leading the majors in walks with 76.

Tanner Roark (12-8) gave up two runs on five hits in six innings and lost for just the second time in his last nine starts.

Roark has a 2.25 ERA over that stretch.

Burnett retired the first eight batters before Roark’s two-out single in the third. It was just the pitcher’s sixth hit in 60 at-bats this season.

The Nationals didn’t get another hit until Rendon’s one-out homer to left in the sixth that pulled them within 2-1. It was the third homer 15 at-bats for Rendon off Burnett.

ROCKIES 3, GIANTS 2 In San Francisco, rookie Tyler Matzek struck out seven in seven innings to end a five-start losing streak, and Colorado capitalized on the Giants’ mistakes.

The Rockies have won four straight games in San Francisco for the first time in club history, kicking off a stretch of 13 straight games against the NL West with an impressive victory.

In his 14th major league start and first facing the Giants, Matzek (3-9) won for the first time since beating Pittsburgh on July 26 and recorded his first victory versus the division. The left-hander won away from Coors Field for the first time in eight road appearances and seven starts after beginning 0-5.

Matzek outdueled Jake Peavy (2-4), who had won his previous two starts following three straight losses after being acquired in a trade from Boston on July 26.

Tennis: Venus Williams wins Continued from Page B-1 something else then cramps, too.”

It started in the back of his left shoulder, and then quickly spread to his forearm. The right-handed Murray couldn’t toss the ball high enough to get any pace on his serves.

Between points, he’d twist his body to awkwardly stretch his left side. After hitting a winner, he’d reach for his quad.

Murray was twice down a break in the fourth set, but the 70th-ranked Haase unraveled with a string of unforced errors.

He wasted three break points in the final game, when a missed call also cost him.

The eighth-seeded Murray had felt confident in his conditioning after productive training sessions in Miami, where he weathered far more heat and humidity than this. He wondered if something was amiss in his nutrition.

“Cramping in my left forearm?” a bewildered Murray said. “I mean, I didn’t use my left forearm a whole lot today.”

Haase, also bothered by some cramping, said he didn’t eat and drink enough beforehand because of an earlier-thanexpected start — the first match on Louis Armstrong Stadium lasted just 47 minutes. But Murray said dehydration didn’t seem to be his problem.

Serving for the fourth set at 5-3, Haase double-faulted on break point to allow Murray to get back on serve. Murray then went up 6-5 when he took Haase’s second serve high and whacked a forehand winner.

With Murray trying to serve

out the match, Haase smacked a deep return on his second break point that might have set him up to win the game. But the ball was called out, and after it was overturned on review, they had to replay the point. This time, Haase hit a volley into the net.

Murray is notorious for suddenly clutching at an ailment after a poorly played point. On this day, though, the misery was clearly real. The two-time major champion went after winners to shorten points, tried to stay upright to keep the strain off his legs. It was just enough to eke out the victory.

“I don’t think if it would have gone to five sets I would’ve been the favorite,” Murray said.

Three years ago, he and Haase did go five in New York, with Murray rallying from a two-set deficit to win in the second round.

After Monday’s loss, Haase planned to complain to the ATP that he was denied treatment during the match for a sore foot.

But the Dutchman insisted he wasn’t distracted by Murray’s shows of discomfort.

“I was more busy with myself, and I was struggling myself,” Haase said. “I tried to play my game. It didn’t bother me what he did.”

No such struggles for topseeded Novak Djokovic, who breezed past U.S. Open novice Diego Schwartzman 6-1, 6-2, 6-4. Djokovic wrapped up the final match on opening day at the year’s last Grand Slam event as the hour grew late, with fans calling out to him from the far-away seats at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

delight for all you guys,” he told them in an on-court interview.

Fifth-seeded Maria Sharapova, who missed last year’s tournament because of an injured right shoulder, made a successful return by winning the final 10 games to beat Maria Kirilenko 6-4, 6-0 in a matchup of 27-year-old Russians and longtime friends. Actor Alec Baldwin got into the action, too, catching an out-of-bounds shot that sailed over Sharapova and bounced into the seats.

Also, 10th-seeded Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark advanced 6-1, 3-6, 2-0 when Magdalena Rybarikova of Slovakia had to stop because of an injured left hip.

Ninth-seeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga also needed four sets to beat Juan Monaco 6-3, 4-6, 7-6 (2), 6-1. Nick Kyrgios — the Australian teen who stunned Rafael Nadal at Wimbledon — came back from three code violations, just one outburst away from default, in a 7-5, 7-6 (4), 2-6, 7-6 (1) upset of 21st-seeded Mikhail Youzhny.

Julien Benneteau, seeded 24th, was upset in five sets by fellow Frenchman Benoit Paire.

Third-seeded Stan Wawrinka and fifth-seeded Milos Raonic both advanced in straight sets.

Top-seeded Novak Djokovic played later under the lights at Arthur Ashe Stadium in the first night session of the year’s last Grand Slam tournament.

Earlier, Venus Williams, 34, beat 43-year-old Kimiko DateKrumm 2-6, 6-3, 6-3. The combined age of 77 was believed to be the oldest for a women’s Grand Slam pairing, the WTA said.

Tiger Woods splits with swing coach Sean Foley

By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press

PARAMUS, N.J. — Tiger Woods is leaving swing coach Sean Foley after four years and no majors.

Woods said on his website Monday he will no longer work with Foley, the Canadian whom he hired when his game was at its low point following the upheaval with his marriage.

The announcement came one day after another Foley pupil, Hunter Mahan, won The Barclays.

“I’d like to thank Sean for his help as my coach and for his friendship,” Woods said.

“Sean is one of the outstanding coaches in golf today, and I know he will continue to be successful with the players working with him.”

Woods has been coping with back problems for more than a year. He had surgery March 31 to alleviate a pinched nerve, forcing him to miss two majors during his three months of recovery. He missed two cuts, withdrew from another tournament and had his worst 72-hole finish in a major after returning.

He is taking three months off in a bid to regain his full strength, and said this would be the right time to dismiss Foley.

Woods is not scheduled to play again until his World Challenge in Orlando, Fla., the first week in December.

He does not have a coach and said there was no timetable to hire one.

“My time spent with Tiger is one of the highlights of my career so far, and I am appreciative of the many experiences we shared together,” Foley said in a statement posted on Woods’ website.

Foley was the third coach Woods hired as a professional.

Woods began working with Butch Harmon as a teenager, and they changed his swing

twice. The biggest overhaul was after Woods won the Masters by 12 shots. Many believe the new swing produced Woods’ most dominant golf, though he also was in his early 20s and had not had serious issues with his knee. Woods won eight majors while with Harmon, including seven in 11 attempts and an unprecedented sweep of them in 2000-01. They parted in 2003.

Woods went to Hank Haney and produced another memorable stretch with an entirely different swing. In a two-year period covering 34 tournaments, Woods won 18 times (including four majors) and was runner-up six times. That ended with the 2008 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines, right before his fourth and most invasive knee surgery.

That was his 14th major, and Woods has not won another since. He remains four short of the record held by Jack Nicklaus.

Haney announced in May he

was leaving Woods, although those close to Woods felt a split was imminent. Woods went through most of 2010 without a coach until hooking up with Foley for the first time at the PGA Championship in 2010 at Whistling Straits.

Woods won three times on the PGA Tour in 2012, and then delivered a five-win season in 2013 when he returned to No. 1.

But he rarely challenged in the majors, some of that because of injury.

He missed two majors in 2011 while letting leg injuries fully heal. Woods had a share of the 36-hole lead in the U.S. Open and PGA Championship in 2012, but he was not a factor on Sunday. He was two shots off the lead going into the final round of the 2013 British Open and fell back quickly.

He missed two more majors this year because of injury.

Foley, who first worked with Stephen Ames, has Mahan and former U.S. Open champion Justin Rose among his clients.

Fantasy: Games are unregulated In 2007, Cabot co-authored a legal paper titled “Fantasy Sports: One Form of Mainstream Wagering in the United States.” It offers a point-by-point deconstruction of the federal law that essentially legalized a growing industry that, to some, looks very much like gambling.

One of Cabot’s key points is that the NFL, seeing the revenue and viewership possibilities of fantasy football, hired a well-paid lobbyist who helped smooth the way for an imperfect bill to become law.

Cabot’s conclusion is that the process “ultimately has done a great disservice to reasoned policymaking and, potentially, to the long-term future of the fantasy sports industry itself.”

He counts the growing daygame business as one area especially susceptible to confusion.

Edelman agrees.

“One can argue whether the fantasy sports carve out applies to the short-duration game, given that, at the time the [federal law] was passed, there was no such thing as daily fantasy sports,” Edelman said.

Day games didn’t get much traction until 2011 — five years after the law was passed.

The games are pretty much unregulated, and they are exploding. They allow anyone over 18 to gamble on sports outcomes online, while traditional sports gambling is available online only in Nevada and, in some forms, in Delaware.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Wife hurt because she’s not in will Dear Annie: I have been married to a wonderful man for 30 years. We have a large, supportive, loving family on both sides. I love my mother-in-law dearly. We have always had a wonderful, close relationship. Here’s the problem.

In Mom’s will, it states that if she passes away before my husband, he receives the inheritance. If my husband passes away before his mother, our children receive the inheritance. While this is fine, it hurts me that I am not mentioned at all. My husband has talked to his mother about this oversight, and she said this is the way she wants her will set up.

I have been a good wife, mother and daughter and don’t understand why she would ignore me this way. I don’t expect to inherit money, but a special token would be nice — perhaps a piece of jewelry that she wore or a cherished keepsake. The point is knowing that she thought of me.

Are most wills set up this way? I feel like I’m not really a part of her family. — Very Blessed, But Hurt Dear Blessed: Most wills are set up to provide for children and grandchildren. Spouses of the children are sometimes included, but not always. There is often a worry that the child will someday divorce the spouse, and the family heirlooms would end up with someone who is no longer related.

It’s also possible that by limiting the beneficiaries to immediate blood relatives, Mom is preventing rivalries between spouses.

Please try not to think of this as evidence that your mother-in-law doesn’t care for you. We don’t believe that is the case.

Dear Annie: Fifteen years ago, I helped my oldest daughter and son-in-law with a down payment on a house. So far, I haven’t seen so much as a dollar in repayment from them. My husband passed away six years ago, so I sure could use the money. Why are adult children so self-centered? I’m at a loss as to what I can do. Whatever I have left I’m leaving to the SPCA. — Hurt Mother

Dear Mother: Did your daughter consider this a loan or a gift? She may not realize it was intended to be repaid. Have you asked her? Please tell your daughter you were happy to help her when you had the opportunity, but now that you need money, you would appreciate it if she would make an effort to repay the loan.

Then set up a payment schedule that she can handle.

Dear Annie: I want to add a cautionary tale to the recommendation you gave “Wedding Jitters” about a prenuptial agreement.

When my mother passed away, my father remarried in Florida.

He and his second wife went to a local lawyer and had a prenuptial agreement drawn up to protect his extensive assets for his children and grandchildren should he predecease his second wife.

When Dad died, the agreement allowed his second wife to remain in the house and live off of their joint assets.

When my stepmother died, however, we discovered that she had moved everything into her name before my father’s death and consequently willed it to her family.

My sister and I retained a lawyer in New York who aggressively pursued this through the prenuptial agreement and my father’s will. But apparently, his prenup is not considered a binding contract in Florida and is essentially meaningless.

We inherited nothing from my parents’ life of scrimping and saving. It may have protected my father in the event of a divorce, but it did not protect his estate. — Sad but Wiser Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
