Rio Arriba sheriff: U.S. attorney has a ‘vendetta’

Grand jury probes police captain DA seeks Wagner’s payroll records as part of fraud investigation

By Daniel J. Chacón The New Mexican

The First Judicial District Attorney’s Office has launched a grand jury investigation into Santa Fe police Capt. Jason Wagner, who resigned in December amid allegations that he had falsified his time card and was rehired earlier this year under a new chief.

public,” City Manager Brian Snyder said.

Also on Wednesday, the city released the summary of findings of an outside investigation that Santa Fe’s new police chief, Eric Garcia, ordered before he rehired Wagner in July. The city previously refused to make that investigation public, saying it was protected under the Inspection of Public Records Act because it was a matter of opinion. The city’s denial prompted The New Mexican to file a separate open-records request asking for the factual findings of the investigation.

A prosecutor leading the grand jury issued a subpoena last Thursday ordering the city of Santa Fe to produce payroll records for Wagner and other documents as part of an Jason Wagner investigation into alleged payroll fraud.

“We are cooperating fully with the request and reserve the right to comment until the investigation is completed and the results are made

The investigation by Santa Febased H & H Private Investigations is among the documents the grand jury requested.

The subpoena issued to Snyder requests a copy of the Santa Fe Police Department’s internal investigation into Wagner’s “unauthorized leave/ falsification of time sheets.” It also requests his timesheets from Jan. 1, 2013, until he resigned last December amid allegations that he lied on his time card.

Rio Arriba County Sheriff Tommy Rodella claims in a court filing that he was charged with a series of crimes only because he had upset a vindictive federal prosecutor.

Rodella, 52, was indicted last week on suspicion of violating the civil rights of a motorist by assaulting the man Tommy with a silver pistol Rodella and then lying about what happened in an arrest report.

Rodella’s son, Thomas Rodella Jr., 26, also was indicted in the alleged attack, brought on by road rage.

Attorneys for the Rodellas wrote a letter this week to U.S. Attorney Damon Martinez in which they accused him of retaliating against the sheriff for petty, personal reasons.

They asked Martinez to dismiss the indictments by Friday or said they would seek payment from the taxpayers if they win acquittals for the Rodellas.

A spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Albuquerque declined Thursday to comment on the allegations of prosecutorial misconduct, but she said the case will go forward promptly. The Rodellas’ trial is scheduled to begin Sept. 15.

She worked at LANL as a contract employee for nearly 30 years, until 2010, when she was allowed to retire after nearly a year of paid leave during the criminal investigation of her case. During her allocution Wednesday, Roxby Mascheroni expressed remorse for her role in the crime against her native country, according to her lawyer, Erlinda Johnson of Albuquerque.

“Her ancestors fought for this country in World War II and World War I,” Johnson said. “She was deeply ashamed with her involvement.”

The Santa Fe County Commission appears ready to sidestep a decision on the proposed La Bajada mine a little longer.

The commission will vote Tuesday on whether to publish an ordinance that would place a 12-month moratorium on developments with countywide impacts — such as landfills, junkyards, and sand and gravel mining that requires blasting. The ordinance, if adopted by the commission, will apply to new or existing development applications, like the one for a basalt mine on La Bajada mesa that has drawn wide criticism.

The county has scheduled a tentative public hearing on the development moratorium at 2 p.m. Sept. 16 at the county offices in Santa Fe. The commission postponed a final decision Aug. 12 on an application by Rockology and Buena Vista Estates to create a 50-acre mining zone on the La Bajada escarpment off Waldo Canyon Road and east of Interstate 25. The companies want to blast and mine basalt from pits on the mesa that would be crushed and used for road construction.

The proposed mine set off a firestorm of criticism from hundreds of county residents, a few state legislators and others. More than 600 turned out for a seven-hour public hearing in June. The commission

Bank of America to settle for $17B

Poll shows Common Core loses support

Company likely to pay far less in deal with feds

The Washington Post

By T. Rees Shapiro

By Jeff Horwitz The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — How much will Bank of America’s expected $17 billion mortgage settlement cost the company?

The answer is, almost certainly not that much.

In mega-settlements negotiated with the government, a dollar is rarely worth an actual dollar.

Inflated figures make sensational headlines for the Justice Department, and $17 billion would be the largest settlement by far arising from the economic meltdown in which millions of people in the United States lost their homes to foreclosure.

But the true cost to companies is often obscured by potential tax deductions and opaque accounting techniques.

The expected Bank of America settlement will resolve allegations that the bank and companies it later bought misrepresented the quality of loans they sold to investors. Most of the problem loans were sold by Merill Lynch and Countrywide Financial before Bank of America bought them during the 2008 financial crisis.

To settle the government’s claims against the three companies, Bank of America will pay $9.65 billion in cash and provide consumer relief valued at $7 billion, according to officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal isn’t scheduled to be announced until Thursday at the earliest.

Settlement math also affects the actual cost of the deals, allowing banks to earn a multiple for each dollar spent on certain forms of relief.

Consumer advocates said settlement amounts can obscure the actual costs at stake. But since the disputed business behaviors affected mortgage investors, not mortgage borrowers directly, they welcome any consumer aid.

“This is public policymaking through settlements that aren’t even related to the nature of the lawsuit,” says Ira Rheingold, executive director of the National Association of Consumer Advocates. “But there’s no other tool available for people who are concerned about poor communities right now.”

The actual relief is more complicated than cash handouts, however.

More than half will come from principal reductions, with the rest earned through actions such as writing new loans in distressed areas, donating foreclosed properties to community groups and temporarily suspending payments on some loans.

LAST 4 HOSTAGES FREED IN CHICAGO-AREA STANDOFF About two dozen heavily armed law enforcement officers stormed a home in Chicago’s southern suburbs Wednesday to free four remaining hostages and capture two suspects, ending a 20-hour standoff that police say began as a robbery attempt. Two women and two children were freed midmorning from the home in the small city of Harvey, Ill., with the captors at one point firing through a second-floor door as officers rushed toward it down a hallway, said Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart. Four children had been freed overnight after hours of talks, and the hostage-takers were given cigarettes in exchange, Dart said. AP PHOTO/COURTESY OF WLS-TV CHICAGO

In brief Ukraine advances on Donetsk rebels DONETSK, Ukraine — After days of street battles and weeks of shelling, Ukrainian troops made a significant push Wednesday into rebel-held territory, claiming control over a large part of the separatist stronghold of Luhansk and nearly encircling Donetsk, the largest rebel-held city.

The advance of the Ukrainian army against pro-Russian separatists comes as the civilian death toll is mounting from sustained artillery strikes and rebel cities are slipping into a humanitarian disaster.

At least 52 deaths were reported Wednesday, along with 64 wounded — and due to the dangers of the war zone in eastern Ukraine, no deaths were reported from Luhansk, meaning the actual toll could be even higher.

Ukrainian troops have been trying for weeks to drive the rebels out of Luhansk and cut off Donetsk, a city of 1 million that has shrunk by a third as frightened residents fled.

WASHINGTON — At least 34 sailors are being kicked out of the Navy for their roles in a cheating ring that operated undetected for at least seven years at a nuclear power training site, and 10 others are under criminal investigation, the admiral in charge of the Navy’s nuclear reactors program told The Associated Press.

The number of accused and the duration of cheating are greater than was known when the Navy announced in February that it had discovered cheating on qualification exams by an estimated 20 to 30 sailors seeking to be certified as instructors at the nuclear training unit at Charleston, S.C., Students there are trained in nuclear reactor operations to prepare for service on any of the Navy’s 83 nuclear-powered submarines and aircraft carriers.

Gov. Perry enters not-guilty plea AUSTIN, Texas — Republican Texas Gov. Rick Perry has formally pleaded not guilty to criminal charges of leveraging his power to try to oust a Democratic district attorney convicted of drunken driving, according to court documents obtained Wednesday.

The potential 2016 presidential candidate entered his plea in a Travis County court filing. He also waived an arraignment that had been set for Friday.

Houston attorney Tony Buzbee, who heads Perry’s defense team, on Wednesday said he doesn’t anticipate the need for Perry to personally appear in court in the near future.

Yoga guru B.K.S. Iyengar dies at 95 NEW DELHI — B.K.S. Iyengar, who helped introduce the practice of yoga to a Western world awakening to the notion of an inner life, died Wednesday in Pune, India. He was 95. The cause was heart failure, said Abhijata Sridhar-Iyengar, his granddaughter.

After surviving illness as a child, Iyengar credited yoga with saving his life. A meeting in 1952 with violinist Yehudi Menuhin, an early yoga devotee, proved to be a turning point, and Iyengar began traveling with Menuhin, eventually opening institutes on six continents.

He famously taught Queen Elisabeth of Belgium, 85 at the time, to stand on her head. In a 2005 book, Light on Life, Iyengar mused about the changes he had seen.

Following a bevy of recent White House meetings, top officials have compiled specific recommendations from business groups and other advocates whose support could undercut GOP claims that Obama is exceeding his authority to help people who have already violated immigration laws.

“The president has not made a decision regarding next steps, but he believes it’s important to understand and consider the full range of perspectives on potential solutions,” said White House spokesman Shawn Turner.

One of the more popular requests among business and family groups is a change in the way green cards are counted that would essentially free up some 800,000 additional visas the first year, advocates say.

WASHINGTON — A year ago, the term Common Core meant little to the American public. But today, a vast majority of people in the country are familiar with the nationwide educational standards, and most of them oppose the initiative touted by the Obama administration, a new survey shows.

The results of an annual poll by Gallup and the Phi Delta Kappa educators’ organization provide more evidence that support for the Common Core State Standards, originally adopted by 46 states and the District of Columbia, has faded in recent years. The survey showed that those who opposed the standards thought that the Common Core will hurt teachers’ ability to craft lessons that they think will be best for the students.

“It’s pretty apparent that the Common Core has become a polarizing term,” said Terry Holliday, the education commissioner of Kentucky, which was among the first states to adopt the standards in 2010.

The wide-ranging survey also showed that trust in the nation’s public school system has evaporated, as a consistent majority of Americans approve of charter schools that operate independently of state regulations.

Overall, more than 70 percent of Americans give President Barack Obama a C, D or F grade in his support to public schools, the lowest rating he has received on the poll since he took office in 2009.

Survey participants said that the top issue facing public schools is a lack of financial support, while concern about discipline issues or crime in schools is dropping.

Respondents also said that they placed more trust in their local school board when it comes to educational policy issues than they trust the federal government. On average, respondents said they thought highly of their neighborhood school.

The poll also showed that 68 percent of public school parents believed that standardized tests are not helpful for teachers measuring student achievement.

The poll also showed overwhelming support for Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate exams and college entrance tests such as the SAT and ACT. Last year, more than two-thirds of respondents in the poll had never heard of the Common Core. This year, more than 80 percent of Americans had heard of the standards, mostly from prominent coverage in newspapers, television and radio. A total of 60 percent of respondents said they opposed the Common Core.

as a public health crisis, the WHO director-general, Dr. Margaret Chan, wrote in Wednesday’s New England Journal of Medicine. “Fear remains the most difficult barrier to overcome,” with people hiding family members suspected of being infected, and people fleeing treatment centers and falling prey to “witchcraft or miracle cures.”

Whole counties and districts have been sealed off in Sierra Leone and Liberia, and Guinea imposed some internal travel restrictions, but the barricading of Liberia’s urban slums are a first.

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Hamas’ shadowy military chief escaped an apparent Israeli assassination attempt that killed his wife and infant son, the militant group said Wednesday.

Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that the bombardment of Gaza will continue until rocket fire out of the Palestinian territory stops.

The airstrike on a home where Mohammed Deif’s family members were staying — and the tough talk from Netanyahu — came after the collapse of cease-fire talks in Cairo on Tuesday.

In a nationally televised address, Netanyahu showed little willingness to return to the negotiating table after six weeks of war against Hamas.

“We are determined to continue the campaign with all means and as is needed,” he said, his defense minister by his side. “We will not stop until we secure full security for all citizens of Israel.”

More than 2,000 Palestin-

ians have been killed in the fighting, most of them civilians, according to U.N. and Palestinian medical officials.

Sixty-seven people have died on the Israeli side, all but three of them soldiers.

A six-day temporary truce collapsed after Egyptian-mediated talks broke down without an agreement on an extended cease-fire. Palestinian militants launched dozens of rockets into Israel, while Israel carried out numerous airstrikes across Gaza.

After remaining quiet for most of the day, Hamas officials announced that Deif was not in the targeted home and was still alive. Deif has survived multiple assassination attempts, lives in hiding and is believed to be paralyzed from previous attempts on his life.

Abu Obeida, the spokesman for Hamas’ military wing, said Israel was “unable to get to our commander Deif,” adding that he will “lead the army that will enter to liberate the holy alAqsa mosque” in Jerusalem.

Drug for battling Ebola outbreak shows promise Researchers say treatment protects monkeys exposed to similar virus

By Andrew Pollack The New York Times

An experimental drug has completely protected monkeys from lethal doses of a virus related to Ebola, bolstering confidence that a similar medicine might be effective if deployed in the current outbreak in Africa,

researchers reported Wednesday.

The researchers said the drug, which is being developed

by Tekmira Pharmaceuticals, kept all monkeys alive in a study, even if given as late as three days after exposure to the Marburg virus, when the virus was already detectable in the animals’ blood.

Both Marburg and Ebola are filoviruses that cause deadly hemorrhagic fever.

Tekmira, which is based in British Columbia, has a separate drug for Ebola that already is in

early testing in healthy human volunteers. Both drugs work the same way — turning off viral genes through an approach called RNA interference.

In a real epidemic like the one in West Africa, most people do not know they have been infected until they get sick, which can be several days later.

The study demonstrates the “real-world utility of this technology,” said Dr. Thomas W. Geisbert, a professor of microbiology and immunology at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston

and a senior author of the study, which is being published in Science Translational Medicine.

The Food and Drug Administration halted testing of the Ebola drug in healthy volunteers last month.

This month, however, the FDA said the drug could be tested on people who were actually infected.

to comment on the allegations at this time, and will await the verdict of the jury when the case goes to trial,” she said.

Sheriff Rodella, a Democrat, was defeated in the June primary election by James Lujan, a former deputy whom he had fired.

Rodella’s term expires at the end of the year.

Rio Arriba County Manager Tomas Campos said county taxpayers may have to cover the sheriff’s legal bills, irrespective of any challenge to the prosecutor’s fairness.

Technically, Campos said, the sheriff is never off-duty, and he could argue that his arrest of Tafoya should be defended at county expense.

The county probably would not have to pay for the lawyer for Rodella’s son, Campos said.

Both defendants are free on their own recognizance. A judge, though, ordered Sheriff Rodella not to carry a firearm.

“Defendant Roxby Mascheroni thereby not only seeks to belittle or downplay the degree of the defendants’ turncoat acts, and the seriousness of their criminal actions, she also seeks to distance herself from true responsibility for them.”

The prosecution also assailed Roxby Mascheroni’s argument “that she passively catered to the whims of her demanding husband.” In court pleadings, prosecutors said evidence exists that she actively participated in criminal acts at times without prodding from her husband. They cite her research into Venezuela’s nuclear capabilities and editing of her husband’s writings as examples.

Roxby Mascheroni, a technical writer by trade, acknowledged her role polishing her husband’s writings in “A Deterrence Program for Venezuela,” Johnson said.

“She aided and abetted him,” Johnson said. “Because he was not a native English speaker, his entire career Marjorie edited his research writing. She assisted him in editing this paper.”

Leo Mascheroni, a naturalized U.S. citizen originally from Argentina, pleaded guilty to charges of conversion of government property, making false statements, communication of restricted data and retention of national defense information.

He is in federal custody awaiting sentencing and faces up to 5½ years in prison.

Roxby Mascheroni remains free pending her assignment to a facility, which will be determined by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, most likely in 60 to 75 days, according to Johnson.

Rael pointed out that there are different standards for personnel and criminal cases.

“A personnel case requires a preponderance of the evidence. A criminal case requires beyond a reasonable doubt. I had … what I considered was preponderance of the evidence, and his resignation made that point moot,” Rael said.

Rael said the grand jury investigation was news to him, but he predicted the jury would find that Wagner “wasn’t putting in the time that he was obligated to put in, in order to collect his paycheck.”

In a statement, Garcia said the police department is in “full compliance” with the investigation.

“We will assist the District Attorney’s Office in every way possible,” Garcia said in a statement Wednesday as he was traveling back to Santa Fe from an FBI training in Kentucky .

Mayor Javier Gonzales also issued a statement. “The City Manager and I support Chief Garcia, trust his leadership, and have confidence that the decisions he makes are in the best interests of the Santa Fe Police Department and the citizens his officers are sworn to protect,” Gonzales said.

Social media pushes back at militants’ propaganda

U.S. launched secret raid to rescue Foley

By Zeina Karam and Raphael Satter

By Adam Goldman and Karen DeYoung

The Associated Press

BEIRUT — The extremists of the Islamic State group have turned their social media into a theater of horror, broadcasting a stomach-turning stream of battles, bombings and beheadings to a global audience.

The strategy is aimed at terrorizing opponents at home and winning recruits abroad.

But there are increasing signs of pushback — both from companies swiftly censoring objectionable content and users determined not to let it go viral.

Public disgust with the group’s callous propaganda tactics was evident following the group’s posting of the beheading video of American journalist James Foley — chilling footage that spread rapidly when it appeared online late Tuesday.

By Wednesday, many social media users were urging each other not to post the video as a form of protest.

Phillip Smyth, a University of Maryland researcher who tracks the social media activity of jihadists, has noted a modest but noteworthy rise in the speed with which rogue accounts are being removed from Twitter and terror-supporting pages are being pulled from Facebook.

“It’s happening,” he said. “I can tell you first hand because I look at this stuff every day.”

The Islamic State group, an al-Qaida offshoot, has been a determined user of social media, broadcasting high-definition video of horrific forms of punishment including crucifixions, beheadings, stonings and mass slaughter.

A chilling, 61-minute video posted online in June shows Islamic State militants knocking on the door of a Sunni police major in the dead of night in Iraq. When he answers, they blindfold and cuff him before they slice off his head with a knife in his own bedroom.

The fear created by such footage was seen as one factor behind the stunning collapse of Iraqi security forces when Islamic State fighters overran the cities of Mosul and Tikrit in June.

Faysal Itani, a resident fellow at the Atlantic Council, said the militants’ slick production techniques are partly due to the foreigners who have joined their cause.

“They’re the Twitter generation,” he said. “They’re good at it.”

The Islamic State’s adept use of the Internet is in many ways an extension of al-Qaida’s technological evolution, illustrating how much the group has changed since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and why it has flourished despite America’s decadelong quest to crush it.

Unlike its Afghan Taliban allies, who banned television when they were in power, alQaida has never rejected modern technology. The group and its affiliates have exploited the Internet to rally and connect supporters, and are quick to adopt new technology.

Twitter Inc. says it’s trying to keep the group’s most gruesome videos off its platform, an issue that gained new urgency following the release of the Foley beheading footage.

In a tweet, CEO Dick Costolo said his company was “actively suspending accounts as we discover them related to this graphic imagery.”

Video-sharing sites saw a similar vanishing act.

On YouTube, which is owned

by Google Inc., the images were posted for some time Tuesday before being removed. By Wednesday, searches on YouTube mainly turned up links to news reports of Foley’s slaying, or to re-edited videos that removed footage of the beheading.

In a statement, YouTube said its policies “prohibit content like gratuitous violence,” and it removes videos in violation when flagged by users.

Facebook said it began removing links to the Foley beheading Tuesday, a process that continued Wednesday as users reported the clips. The Menlo Park, Calif., company said it was still allowing people to post snippets of the clip in the context of a discussion about the incident.

Special forces staged unsuccessful mission earlier this summer The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — U.S. Special Operations forces staged an unsuccessful operation this summer to rescue photojournalist James Foley and other Americans being held in Syria by Islamic State militants, according to senior Obama administration officials.

The attempt, involving several dozen U.S. commandos, one of whom was injured in a fierce firefight with the militants, was the first known U.S. ground operation in Syria since the country’s descent into civil war. It came after at least six European hostages freed by the militants last spring had been debriefed by U.S. intelligence.

“The president authorized earlier this summer an operation to attempt the rescue of American citizens held by ISIL,” one of the acronyms used to refer to the Islamic State, said one of two senior officials who provided information on the mission.

“We had a combination of … intelligence that was sufficient to enable us to act on it,” the official said, and the military moved “very aggressively, very quickly to try and recover our citizens.”

The official said the effort “was not ultimately successful because the hostages were not present … at the site of the operation.” Other officials said they were believed to have been there, but that they had been moved up to several weeks before the raid.

Wednesday of details about the operation, the White House and Pentagon issued statements confirming that President Barack Obama had authorized the mission following assessments that “these hostages were in danger with each passing day.”

The Islamic State on Tuesday released a video of Foley’s execution, which it said was in response to U.S. airstrikes in Iraq. Obama called the beheading “appalling” and “a brutal murder.”

The two officials, who were authorized by the White House to speak anonymously to a small group of reporters, would not specify the number or identity of Americans being held alongside Foley. They are believed to number at least four, one of whom, freelance journalist Steven Joel Sotloff, also appeared in the Foley video, as the executioner warned that “the life of this American citizen, Obama, depends on your next decision.”

The failed operation “was conducted by a joint force with virtually every service represented,” one of the senior officials said, including “special operators and aircraft both rotary and fixed wing,” with surveillance aircraft overhead.

That official said that there were a “good number” of militant casualties at the site, but that one U.S. service member received a “minor injury when one aircraft did take some fire.”

The two senior officials declined to specify the location of the raid, whether the hostages had ever been there, the specific U.S. units that had taken part in the operation or how long they were on the ground. “It wasn’t an extraordinarily long period,” one said.

Other current and former U.S. officials, who were not part of the briefing, said that Foley and others were held at an eastern Syria site near Raqaa, a city that is held by Islamic State fighters.

The officials said that U.S. forces landed modified, heavily armed Black Hawk helicopters flown by the Army’s 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, which works with both the Army’s Delta Force and Navy SEAL commandos.

The regiment is known as the “Night Stalkers.”

The current and former officials also said that unspecified materials belonging to the militants had been seized at the site of the raid.

Obama said Wednesday that the United States “will be vigilant and we will be relentless” against the Islamic State group and would “do what’s necessary to see that justice is done” to Foley’s killers.

Obama, who spoke Wednesday morning to Foley’s parents, offered no new policy measures to confront the militants. Referring to neighboring countries and U.S. allies, he said “there has to be a common effort to extract this cancer so that it does not spread.”

Asked whether the United States might consider suspending its airstrikes, one U.S. official said the “only question is if we do more.” Officials said that attacks against the Islamic State would continue in Iraq under an authorization Obama signed early this month.

The U.S. Central Command said it had carried out 14 airstrikes in northern Iraq near the Mosul Dam on Wednesday, following Foley’s execution, bringing the total to 84 since the air campaign began Aug. 8. Obama authorized the airstrikes to aid Iraqi and Kurdish forces fight-

ing the Islamic State, to help rescue besieged civilians, and to protect U.S. personnel and facilities in Iraq.

Since early June, Obama has sent about 800 U.S. troops to Iraq to assist in those missions. On Wednesday, the State Department requested an additional 300 to help protect the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad and a consulate in Irbil, the capital of the northern Kurdish region. A White House spokesman said no decision had been made on the request.

Foley, 40, was kidnapped in November 2012 while covering Syria’s civil war. According to his employer, the Boston-based website GlobalPost, he was held in eastern Syria with at least a dozen other captives, including other Western journalists, by British members of the Islamic State, which last week sent his family and employer an email threatening to kill him.

“We knew exactly where he was from the released hostages,” GlobalPost President and Chief Executive Philip Balboni said. “We knew that his immediate jailers were British jihadists.”

“There was talk of paying a ransom,” Balboni said. “I think the fact that others were released for money certainly gave us hope that a similar outcome could be effectuated for Jim.” U.S. policy has long been opposed to paying ransom for hostages, although a number of European governments and companies are believed to have paid for releases.

Mine: Vote on mine delayed Continued from Page A-1 continued the public hearing in August and then once again delayed a vote on the mine application.

The commission asked the county attorney to draft an order regarding the mine application to be considered at a public meeting at a later date, but in the meantime, the county will consider halting such developments for a year under the proposed moratorium.

Cerrillos resident Pat Brown said she’s happy the commissioners are considering a moratorium if they are not yet ready to vote on the La Bajada mine application. She opposes the mine. “I definitely want to preserve the scenic beauty of the mesa,” she said.

If the moratorium is approved, the county would have more time to finish a zoning map under its new Sustainable Land Development Code.

During public hearings about the proposed La Bajada mine, many people said the new code automatically would have precluded a mine on the mesa.

But until the county has approved zoning maps, the code can’t be enforced, and it isn’t yet certain what kind of development would be allowed on the mesa. Public hearings were held regarding a draft zoning map in May and June, but no date has been set yet for adoption of a final zoning map.

In a memo to county commissioners Tuesday, county Growth Management Director Penny Ellis-Green said the development moratorium would prevent a rush of applications before new zoning regulations are in place, would avoid allowing developments that don’t conform to the new code and would allow the planning process to run its course with “widespread citizen input, involvement and public debate.”

Steve Hooper, owner of Rockology, and Jim Siebert, representing Buena Vista Estates, did not respond to requests for comment on what the ordinance might mean for their application.

Texas regulators OK expanding nuke waste site LUBBOCK, Texas — Depleted uranium from federal energy facilities can be buried at a nuclear-waste dumping site in West Texas, state regulators decided Wednesday.

The 3-0 vote by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality also will triple the Dallas-based Waste Control Specialists facility’s capacity of storing low-level radioactive waste from the majority of U.S. states — going from 2.3 million cubic feet to 9 million cubic feet.

Company spokesman Chuck McDonald says the amendment also reduces by $50 million — to $86 million — the amount of money the company is required to have available to fund potential liabilities.

Environmentalists worry about the Andrews County site, about 365 miles west of Dallas, and how the company keeps wanting to bury additional types of waste.

Commissioners made no comment about the amendment before voting. A call seeking comment from commission Chairman Bryan W. Shaw was not immediately returned Wednesday.

McDonald says the depleted uranium, which is a byproduct of nuclear power plants, is classified as low-level and will come from federal energy facilities The amendment provides “the U.S. Department of Energy with a much-needed option as it looks for safe, secure disposal of orphaned waste that it has been storing for up to 40 or 50 years,” McDonald said, noting that the amendment syncs up the license with the actual disposal operations taking place.

But experts say depleted uranium gets more radioactive as time passes and if disposed of improperly could pose health risks, such as cancer.

As tension eases, Ferguson focuses on investigation

By Alan Blinder and Campbell Robertson The New York Times

FERGUSON, Mo. — Attorney General Eric Holder arrived in St. Louis on Wednesday, meeting with community leaders and federal investigators even as local law enforcement officials said they were hopeful that they had turned a corner in calming the restive community of Ferguson after 12 days of protests and unrest.

Holder’s first stop was at a community college, where he met with people who told him about their own experiences with the local police, some of which they said helped fuel the

rage that was ultimately ignited by the shooting of an unarmed black teenager by a white police officer on Aug. 9.

There were more protests planned throughout the day and into the evening, but Capt. Ronald S. Johnson of the Missouri State Highway Patrol said he believed they had reached “a turning point.”

Johnson, whose agency is overseeing security here, said there were only sporadic problems Tuesday night, and none of the wide-scale looting and confrontations that had erupted on other nights.

Still, police made 47 arrests overnight.

As the tension on the street seemed to ease, the focus turned to the inves-

tigation into the shooting death of Michael Brown.

A grand jury has been convened and was scheduled to meet Wednesday to begin hearing evidence, said Edward Magee, a spokesman for Robert P. McCulloch, the prosecuting attorney for St. Louis County.

Protesters gathered outside McCulloch’s office Wednesday, calling for him to step aside. They argued that he could not be impartial because his father, a police officer, was shot and killed by a black man while on duty when McCulloch was a child.

McCulloch, speaking to a local radio station, said he has only one interest:

conducting a fair and thorough investigation. But he acknowledged that Gov. Jay Nixon of Missouri has the power to appoint a new prosecutor.

“Anyone who wants me off the case needs to call up the governor and express their opinion to him,” McCulloch told KTRS radio.

Magee cautioned that it could take weeks for the grand jury to consider all of the evidence. He said that Officer Darren Wilson, who shot Brown, had been interviewed by police investigators and would be given the opportunity to testify.

The Justice Department, meanwhile, has started a separate inquiry.

Bishop’s Lodge resort, spa sold Atlanta firm plans renovation, expansion of historic property

By Bruce Krasnow The New Mexican

The Bishop’s Lodge Ranch, Resort & Spa, settled 150 years ago by Bishop Jean Baptiste Lamy and once owned by the Pulitzer family, has been sold to a hotel

partnership based in Atlanta.

The 1920s resort is situated on 317 acres in the foothills between Santa Fe and Tesuque. HRV Hotel Partners announced the purchase Wednesday from Lend Lease Corp., a multinational property firm based in New York. The transaction has closed, but financial details were not released, a company statement said.

The resort is the third major Santa Fe hotel property to change

hands in the past year. In late 2013, La Posada de Santa Fe Resort & Spa was sold by lenders to Joseph C. Smith of 1754 Properties, a Florida-based property company. In May, the Eldorado Hotel was purchased by Heritage Hotels & Resorts CEO Jim Long and other financial partners, all of whom live in New Mexico.

All three new owners say they plan major investments and upgrades for the properties.

Richard Holland, a partner with HRV, said Santa Fe offers one of the best retreat and rejuvenation destinations in the United States.

“We want to ensure that Bishop’s Lodge is repositioned as one of the top resorts in the nation. We are currently finalizing plans to renovate and expand the resort to give it a renewed life in keeping with its rich history and character,” Holland said in a statement.

AG asked to probe wage claim policies Lawmaker says state agency improperly rejecting complaints

By Uriel J. Garcia The New Mexican

A

Democratic state lawmaker has asked Attorney General Gary King to look into the Department of Workforce Solutions’ handling of wage-theft claims, saying the agency is improperly rejecting worker complaints in violation of a law passed in 2009.

State Rep. Miguel Garcia of Bernalillo, in a letter to King on Tuesday, said it was “troubling to me when it came to my attention that the New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions is summarily rejecting, for improper reasons, wage claims being filed by workers.”

Garcia said the practices are contrary to the Miguel Legislature’s 2009 antiGarcia wage-theft bill. He said the state “only pursues claims going back one year,” but the 2009 law changed the statute of limitations to three years. The letter also claims the department fails to: u Accept complaints written in Spanish. u Accept claims over $10,000. u Accept cases from people with nonNew Mexico identification, such as a passport from a foreign country. u Pursue claims by employees who were paid in cash.

Department of Workforce Solutions Secretary Celina Bussey disputed that some types of worker claims are rejected.

“The agency has Spanish-speaking staff in all of our Labor Relations offices across the state,” she said in an email. “The Department has always and continues to accept wage claims even if a worker was paid in cash or doesn’t have pay stubs, though this presents challenges to completing a successful claim.”

Enrique Hernández was among 50 people demonstrating over the issue Wednesday in front of the Workforce Solutions office in Santa Fe. He said he had worked for his former employer for five years and averaged 110 hours every two weeks, but was only paid for 80. He said he worked a total of 3,600 hours, which is equal to $20,000 in wages never paid to

Suicide-line telephones coming to Taos bridge Devices may be installed in months while state considers barriers

By Andrew Oxford The Taos News

TAOS — The New Mexico Department of Transportation could be mere months away from implementing suicide prevention measures at the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge, nearly five years after the agency proposed various designs for barriers at the site.

State officials say they will install telephones at the bridge to connect callers with a suicide prevention hotline. Meanwhile, the agency will continue to study options for physical barriers such as a net.

The plans come amid new interest in safety measures at the landmark, spurred by the campaign of a woman whose 23-year-old son jumped to his death there earlier this year. He is one of several people who have ended their lives by going over a railing on the bridge, which spans a rocky gorge with the Rio Grande some 650 feet below.

Designs for a phone system likely will be completed within two weeks, Transportation Department engineer Miguel Gabaldon told the Taos County Board of Commissioners on Tuesday.

The department is in preliminary discussions with the New Mexico Crisis and Access Line to field calls made from the bridge.

An administrator at the nonprofit said the phones could be lifesaving resources for those considering jumping from the bridge.

“A visible connection, a visible way to say ‘someone’s here and you can connect right now’ is so pal-

N.M. Lottery scholarship fund falls to $41M State estimates it can cover average tuition for fall semester The Associated Press

Carlos Campos, who has filed a wage-theft claim against Posa’s El Merendero, rallies Wednesday in front of the state Department of Workforce Solutions against policies that he says have created barriers to workers filing wage complaints against their employers. LUIS SANCHEZ SATURNO/THE NEW MEXICAN

ALBUQUERQUE — The New Mexico Lottery generated $40.9 million in the most recent budget year for a popular college scholarship program, but the revenue is down about 6 percent because of a slump in ticket sales.

The revenue dip won’t affect scholarship awards in the fall semester for students at New Mexico’s public colleges and universities, Enrique Knell, a spokesman for Gov. Susana Martinez, said Wednesday.

The state Higher Education Department estimates the lottery-financed scholarship program has enough money to cover average tuition costs this fall for eligible students. About 14,800 students are expected to receive scholarships in the fall semester, according to the department.

The lottery produced a record-setting $43.7 million for scholarships in 2013. State law requires that at least 30 percent of lottery proceeds go to the scholarship program. Lottery sales have declined in seven out of the last 10 years.Net lottery ticket sales were $136 million in t he 2014 fiscal year, which ended June 30. That compares with $141.8 million in 2013.

Lottery officials attributed the decline to smaller Powerball jackpots, which didn’t drive ticket sales as high as a year earlier.

ATC secures $4.3M loan to purchase south-side campus Charter high school seeks to add many amenities

By Robert Nott The New Mexican

The Academy for Technology and the Classics plans to buy its campus south of Santa Fe with a $4.3 million loan from Los Alamos National Bank.

The 25-year mortgage, with a 4.25 percent interest rate, will allow the charter high school to purchase the 10.5-acre site and 27,000-squarefoot building on Avan Nu Po Road.

The school will make a $300,000 down payment and use the $4.3 million loan to cover the rest of the $4.6 million price tag.

The move allows the charter school to be eligible for Santa Fe Public Schools’ General Obligation bond funding in 2017 to maintain and renovate the building.

School leaders plan to add a gym, science labs, a music room and a cafeteria space.

They will need to raise a total of

$6 million in the next few years to make those goals a reality, according to Tannis Fox, president of the school’s Governing Council.

The real estate purchase should be closed by September, Fox said.

The action could put an end to a lengthy period of uncertainty for the school, which opened in 2000 and moved to its current site in 2007.

In spring 2011, a school district audit uncovered numerous problems with the academy’s financial management, human resources operations and Governing Council procedures.

At that time, the school was having difficulty paying its monthly $45,000 rent to the school’s foundation — a private nonprofit that handles business dealings — which in turn pays the rent to bondholder Hamlin Management Group of New York.

Shortly thereafter, the district temporarily suspended ATC’s charter status until it got its affairs in order. The district restored the charter in May 2012 after offering up to $215,000 to help the school get back on its feet.

Hamlin’s leaders agreed to lower

arrangement to buy the property.

The school’s foundation now pays

about $23,300 per month in rent, which comes to about $279,000 a year.

That amount is easily covered by the state’s Public School Capital Outlay Council, which provides lease money for charter schools.

The state Public Education Department has to approve the real estate deal, Fox said.

The school serves about 365 students in grades 7-12 on an annual budget of about $2.67 million.

It received an A in the state’s A-F grading system this year and was rated one of the best charter schools in the country in a report on charter schools from U.S. News and World Report last spring.

That report also cited the academy as the fourth best charter school in New Mexico.

Principal Susan Lumley told the school board Tuesday night that more than 400 students are on a waiting list to get into the school.

In brief Bandelier bans use of drones Bandelier National Monument has banned drones and all other unmanned aerial vehicles until further notice.

Park officials issued a statement Wednesday that said the flying vehicles increasingly are being seen in national parks and other protected areas where visitors go for quiet and solitude, “not for the presence of buzzing drones.�

People with cameras have used drones to harass wildlife in attempts to get better photos, and visitors at the Grand Canyon had a noisy drone circling overhead, said National Park Service officials.

They also pointed to the recent crash of a drone into Yellowstone’s famous Grand Prismatic Spring.

Under the new rule, anyone caught using model airplanes, quadcopters or other types of

drones within the monument’s boundaries could face fines up to $5,000 and six months in jail.

Four other large national parks in the Southwest already have changed their rules to ban drones, including Grand Canyon in Arizona.

The new regulation at Bandelier can be found in the Superintendents Compendium and is available at the Visitor Center in Frijoles Canyon or on the monument website, www.nps. gov/BAND.

Teen injured by lightning strike LAS CRUCES — Officials said a 13-year-old middle school student who was critically injured by lighting during football practice is breathing on his own.

Las Cruces Public Schools spokeswoman Jo Galvan says Hunter Keffer’s mother reported on his condition Tuesday night.

Additionally, she says two other students injured Tuesday evening were also transferred

to El Paso after first being taken to a local hospital. She says their conditions were unknown Wednesday morning, and their names weren’t being released.

Galvan says the boys were transferred because Las Cruces doesn’t have a trauma center.

Meantime, the El Paso Medical Center says Keffer has been transferred to the pediatric intensive care unit at El Paso Children’s Hospital.

A coach also was injured in the strike. He was taken to MountainView Regional Medical Center.

Fundraiser set for Cerrillos Hills Shoppers might find some deals and benefit the Cerrillos Hills State Park during a yard sale Friday and Saturday at the park visitors center, 37 Main St. in Cerrillos.

The event is the annual fundraiser hosted by Amigos de Cerrillos Hills State Park. All proceeds help the park with speaker stipends, volunteer trainings, event refreshments,

tools for habitat improvement and trail building, among other projects.

The pre-sale will be held from noon to 4 p.m. Friday. The all-day event Saturday, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., is part of the Cerrillos Village Yard Sale.

Among the items at sale will be antique wooden furniture, serving dishes, a like-new ski rack, name-brand backpacks, men’s suits, loads of clothing, new stretched canvas panels and sketch pads.

First human West Nile case found A 45-year-old woman from San Juan County has been diagnosed with New Mexico’s first human case of West Nile virus this year, according to the New Mexico Department of Health.

HRV Partners was started in 2003 by Holland, a co-founder of Hardin Capital and a Texas Tech graduate, according to a LinkedIn profile.

The company owns hotels near university campuses in Nashville and North Carolina, resorts in Cabo San Lucas and Punta Mita, Mexico, and commercial hotels Chicago and Atlanta, among other locations. “Led by its partners, Richard Holland, Rod Radcliff, Tim Taylor, Lane Holland and Edgar Caballero, HRV offers the skills and resources of one of the most experienced hospitality development and project management teams in North America. These development professionals have worked together for many years to develop numerous successful hotel projects,� according to the firm’s website.

Bishop’s Lodge will continue to be operated by the on-site management team, according to the company statement.

The history of The Bishop’s Lodge goes back to the 1860s, when Bishop Jean Baptiste Lamy purchased the property in Tesuque for a retreat.

On a hill above Tesuque Creek, Lamy built his lodge, calling it Villa Pintoresca. It consisted of two small rooms separated by a hallway that led to a chapel, according to New Mexican archives.

After Lamy’s death in 1888, the property passed through a number of owners, and by the early 1900s, it had become a dairy farm.

In 1915, it was acquired by members of the Pulitzer family, owners of the publishing company. But they didn’t keep it long.

A cowboy who worked for the family knew they wanted to sell it and introduced them to James R. Thorpe, a Denver mining scion, who purchased it in 1918.

Thorpe established a resort, but the property did not thrive until his son, James Jr., took it over in 1955.

The family still lives on a portion for the original property.

Moo Thorpe is a well-established broker with Sotheby’s International Realty.

In 1998, the Thorpe family sold the property to ERE Yarmouth, a billion-dollar real estate company based in Sydney, Australia.

That company was then acquired by Lend Lease Corp., one of the world’s biggest property management and development companies.

The Thorpe family decided to sell the resort “because it looked like an opportune time,�

Lore Thorpe told The New Mexican in 1998. “It was something that my [late] husband had in mind if the right buyer came along.�

Recently, the resort has been a favorite of Hollywood producers looking for an all-inone rustic location with horse stables and privacy. Crazy Heart was filmed on location at the resort, and in 2013 Disney Corp. booked the entire property for a media event with cast and crew of the Lone Ranger.

More recently, inspired by book author Forest Fenn, who claims to have hidden a treasure in the mountains north of Santa Fe, Bishop’s Lodge has partnered with Santa Fe Mountain Adventures for family-friendly scavenger hunts on the grounds of the resort. It also has been a popular destination for hiking and mountain bike events.

She was not hospitalized and is recovering at home, the Health Department reported.

A small percentage of people infected with the mosquitoborne virus can develop meningitis or encephalitis, which can be fatal, especially to seniors.

Risk of contracting West Nile virus can be minimized by emptying or keeping fresh water in mosquito breeding grounds, such as tires, birdbaths, wading pools and water bowls for pets.

The Health Department recommends tight screens on rain barrels to mitigate the threat.

Flu-like symptoms such as fever, nausea, headache and muscle pain can be signs of West Nile virus.

She crossed her arms and interrupted me. “If you think it’s a good idea, why don’t you go chain yourself up for a couple of hours? Maybe I’ll knock over your water bowl. See how you like it.”

“But Mom, I’m a human,” I said, trying to explain the folly of her idea.

She laughed, “Hah! You barely talk to anyone and you eat every thing in reach. You and the dogs are running through the swamp and the river all the livelong day and you haven’t showered in weeks. I can smell you coming.”

She shrugged her shoulders.

And it goes without saying that more than once as an adult I have found myself sprinting after a couple of dogs as they chased a runner through our Minneapolis neighborhood or down Apache Ridge Road as they chased cars.

My favorite occurrence was when both our German shepherds, like synchronous divers, leaped off our second-story balcony, hit the driveway at exactly the same instant, and ran hard after a UPS truck with me in hot pursuit. (I went down the stairs.)

into my mind. But my mom’s admonition had become my own: Never chain an animal.

It turns out that at least 15 states and hundreds of communities across the country agree with my mom and have laws banning or regulating tethering dogs. The reasons for the laws are that chaining not only can physically harm a dog, but it makes them fearful and aggressive, just as my mother had told me.

In our little community, in the high desert, we seem split.

The city of Santa Fe regulates “tethering,” but Santa Fe County does not. One of the nubs of the problem with regulation or banning chaining is the question, “What will happen to all the dogs that are currently tethered all day long?”

Mary Martin, the director of the Santa Fe Animal Shelter & Humane Society, was blunt in her reply. “We think that chaining a dog for its entire existence is so cruel that we’d rather have the owners surrender the dog[s] to the shelter instead of keeping them chained.”

Chaining a dog can create emotional, physical and social damage. Recently, our other escape artist dog, Nellie, got loose during our evening walk, chasing a mythical rabbit. But within five minutes, she came back to us, and within 10 minutes she was peacefully sleeping on our couch with her head on my lap.

She came back, I believe, because our home was her

home. Dogs, like us, are social animals. Dogs want to be with us. Like us, they fare badly when chained.

2 S.F. residents report fake IRS phone scam

By Anne Constable The New Mexican

Two Santa Fe residents are among the 90,000 or so people who have received unsolicited calls from people claiming to be from the Internal Revenue Service and demanding money in a phone scam.

According to the U.S. Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration, about 1,100 victims have lost an estimated $5 million.

Neither of the Santa Fe residents was victimized. Both realized that the caller was not really from the IRS. Margaret Romero, a retired teacher, asked so many questions that the caller hung up on her. She said she was suspicious when the woman, who had a heavy Indian accent, identified herself as “Sherry Jones.”

“That’s when I knew, OK,” Romero said.

Romero said “Jones” told her she had been randomly selected for an “audit check” and should send in a check

for $2,469. Romero began asking questions. The caller said, “Will you let me speak?” and then hung up. When Romero redialed the number, she got a recording of man with an Indian accent who said he would get back to her.

“I’m really concerned that an elderly woman or an elderly man would get scared” upon receiving such a call, Romero said.

William Derbyshire said when he picked up the phone, there was a slight hesitation and then a “very loud voice recording” saying the IRS was “investigating his case. He was told to call back to “settle any claims.” The caller was obviously a scammer, Derbyshire said, and he didn’t try calling the 732 (New Jersey) area code number.

People who receive calls from people claiming to be from the IRS should call 800-366-4484 to file a report, or contact the Federal Trade Commission at FTC.gov and use the “FTC Complaint Assistant.”

When he tried to file a claim with the Department of Workforce Solutions, he said, he was told his case could not be pursued because the agency only accepted complaints for up to $10,000.

In her email, Bussey said the $10,000 limit for wage claims is set by the courts, not her department. She also explained

the department’s time limit for claims: “Regarding the timeperiod, the document retention period for employers is one year, making it difficult to enforce a three-year rule. The department supports extending the document retention timeperiod to three years to align with the 2009 law.”

Justice, a national group that advocates for workers’ rights, said the labor departments of other states such as New Jersey do not even ask for a Social Security number when a worker wants to file a wage-theft claim.

The standard statute of limitations is between two and three years across other states, she added.

“Why does the worker have to go through all of this to

prove that they were abused?”

Pabellón asked.

Garcia said he hopes King’s office will issue a comprehensive opinion.

“The Department of Workforce Solutions needs to put teeth into the law,” Garcia said in a phone interview. “If the department needs help, it should come to lawmakers and request resources instead of making excuses.”

Funeral services and memorials THE HONORABLE PATRICIA ANN MCFATE: PASSIONATE SUPPORTER OF THE ARTS IN SANTA FE The Honorable Patricia Ann McFate, M.D. Ph.D, passed away peacefully on August 16 at her home in Santa Fe after a long illness. Dr. McFate will be greatly missed, as she was loved and admired by her family, friends and the many whose lives she touched.

A life-long humanitarian, Patricia was an accomplished, courageous and passionate supporter of the Santa Fe Opera, Lensic Performing Arts Center, the Santa Fe Community Foundation, Las Campanas Community Fund, the AmericanScandinavian Society, National Endowment for the Humanities, the International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation, Council on Foreign Relations, the University of Pennsylvania, and a number of additional educational institutions and community programs.

She was a loving and devoted wife to the late Ambassador Sydney N. Graybeal. The last annual Santa Fe Opera performance of Fidelio, on August 21 will be dedicated to her by Charles MacKay, General Director.

Long-time Santa Fe resident, Patricia was born in Michigan. She also called Houston, Chicago, New York, and Washington, D.C. home, before settling in Santa Fe. Professionally, she impacted academic, science, medical, and engineering, communities, earning advanced degrees in English literature and post-doctorate degrees in science and medicine.

Dr. McFate was also an expert in the technical issues of national security; particularly arms control treaty verification and implementation. In 1996, President Clinton appointed to her to Scientific and Policy Advisory Committee of the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency.

As a young academic, she wrote numerous articles on Irish folklore and James Stephens, Irish novelist and colleague of James Joyce and later served as Vice Provost of the University of Pennsylvania.

But it was her love of the arts that became her life’s passion.

After serving as Deputy Chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities from 1978 to 1981, she contributed to numerous arts organizations. Her love and admiration for the Santa Fe opera were demonstrated over many years through her valiant service on the Board of Directors and through her unfailing generosity in supporting the Company’s commitment to the production of contemporary and rarely performed works. She was a beloved member of the Lensic family and served as Founding Director and Vice President. She was also a driving force in bringing opera broadcast to Santa Fe, encouraging the Lensic and Santa Fe Opera to begin presenting The Met: Live HD series at The Lensic in 2007.

A memorial service will be held later this year in the fall, with details released at a later time. Donations may be made in her memory to the Santa Fe Opera, the Lensic Center for Performing Arts, the Santa Fe Community Foundation, and the Raoul Wallenberg Foundation.

She is simply irreplaceable. May her memory be a blessing.

OPINIONS

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

COMMENTARY: RONALD S. LAUDER

Who is speaking for the Christians?

W

hy is the world silent while Christians are being slaughtered in the Middle East and Africa? In Europe and in the United States, we have witnessed demonstrations over the tragic deaths of Palestinians who have been used as human shields by Hamas, the terrorist organization that controls Gaza. The United Nations has held inquiries and focuses its anger on Israel for defending itself against that same terrorist organization.

But the barbarous slaughter of thousands upon thousands of Christians is met with relative indifference.

The Middle East and parts of central Africa are losing entire Christian communities that have lived in peace for centuries. The terrorist group Boko Haram has kidnapped and killed hundreds of Christians this year — ravaging the predominantly Christian town of Gwoza, in Borno State in northeastern Nigeria, two weeks ago. Half a million Christian Arabs have been driven out of Syria during the three-plus years of civil war there. Christians have been persecuted and killed in countries from Lebanon to Sudan.

Historians may look back at this period and wonder if people had lost their bearings.

Few reporters have traveled to Iraq to bear witness to the Nazi-like wave of terror that is rolling across that country.

The United Nations has been mostly mum. World leaders seem to be consumed with other matters in this strange summer of 2014. There are no flotillas traveling to Syria or Iraq. And the beautiful celebrities and aging rock stars — why doesn’t the slaughter of Christians seem to activate their social antennas?

OUR VIEW

River volunteer deserves support

A

President Barack Obama should be commended for ordering airstrikes to save tens of thousands of Yazidis, who follow an ancient religion and have been stranded on a mountain in northern Iraq, besieged by Sunni Muslim militants. But sadly, airstrikes alone are not enough to stop this grotesque wave of terrorism.

The Islamic State is not a loose coalition of jihadist groups, but a real military force that has managed to take over much of Iraq with a successful business model that rivals its coldblooded spearhead of death. It uses money from banks and gold shops it has captured, along with control of oil resources and old-fashioned extortion, to finance its killing machine, making it perhaps the wealthiest Islamist terrorist group in the world. But where it truly excels is in its carnage, rivaling the death orgies of the Middle Ages. It has ruthlessly targeted Shiites, Kurds and Christians.

“They actually beheaded

children and put their heads on a stick” a Chaldean-American businessman named Mark Arabo told CNN, describing a scene in a Mosul park. “More children are getting beheaded, mothers are getting raped and killed, and fathers are being hung.”

This week, 200,000 Aramaeans fled their ancestral homeland around Nineveh, having already escaped Mosul.

The general indifference to ISIS, with its mass executions of Christians and its deadly preoccupation with Israel, isn’t just wrong, it’s obscene.

In a speech before thousands of Christians in Budapest in June, I made a solemn promise that just as I will not be silent in the face of the growing threat of antiSemitism in Europe and in the Middle East, I will not be indifferent to Christian suffering. Historically, it has almost always been the other way around: Jews have all too often been the persecuted minority. But Israel has been among the first countries to

aid Christians in South Sudan.

Christians can openly practice their religion in Israel, unlike in much of the Middle East.

This bond between Jews and Christians makes complete sense. We share much more than most religions.

We read the same Bible, and share a moral and ethical core.

Now, sadly, we share a kind of suffering: Christians are dying because of their beliefs, because they are defenseless and because the world is indifferent to their suffering.

Good people must join together and stop this revolting wave of violence. It’s not as if we are powerless. I write this as a citizen of the strongest military power on earth.

I write this as a Jewish leader who cares about my Christian brothers and sisters.

The Jewish people understand all too well what can happen when the world is silent. This campaign of death must be stopped.

Ronald S. Lauder, wrote this for The New York Times, and is the president of the World Jewish Congress.

U.S. can’t always come to world’s rescue

Australia has helicopters. China has helicopters. Egypt has helicopters.

And besides, the countries we’re “rescuing” usually end up hating us after all is said and done.

Why the stall?

Ethnicity irrelevant In the Aug. 15 New Mexican, an article titled “Santa Fe shooting leaves one man dead” appeared. The article reports that “a Hispanic man aged 45 to 50 was shot.”

To me, ethnicity is neither relevant nor an issue in this article.

Is there anyone left naïve enough not to believe the Santa Fe County Commission (“La Bajada mining plan again tabled,” Aug. 13) has been bought off? This screams for a federal investigation and audit.

Failure to vote

Inadequate staffing It’s absolutely astounding that Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center has spent millions of dollars in media, print and television advertising over the past several years, trying to attract new customers.

Why would they want any new customers (patients) when they can’t staff the hospital adequately for patients they have?

Abuse of power For more than a century, forces of the U.S. government have been marshaled against the people of other, weaker countries whenever their interests conflicted with the U.S. policy of fostering corporate interests abroad. Historically, richness of resources has too often been a curse, leading to abuse of local populations.

For America, the chickens are coming home to roost. These same forces are being marshaled against the American people whenever and wherever their interests — public health, the environment and the general welfare invoked in the Constitution — conflict with the U.S. policy of promoting corporate interests.

In all three branches of the U.S. government, corporatism rules.

These forces now include the military, militarized local police, “fusion centers” dedicated to controlling or disrupting public protest, and National Security Agency surveillance available to the FBI and local law enforcement, not so much

Anne Beckett

s the saying goes, no good deed goes unpunished.

Just ask Santa Fe gallery owner Michael Smith, who has spent years cleaning stretches of the Santa Fe River — and importantly for the river’s long-term health, removing invasive species from along its banks.

Despite the years of work, two — that’s right, two — complaints to the city of Santa Fe from people sorry to see the pretty trees pulled out, and Smith’s project has been shut down for the time being. City officials decided they need public input on how best to take out invasive species such as Russian olives or Siberian elms and otherwise care for the river.

This, despite the fact that Smith has kept city officials informed of his work throughout his many years of unpaid service. Smith was no go-it-alone guy. He also helped start the Adopt-the-River program, served on the board of the Santa Fe Watershed Association and served as a Santa Fe River commissioner.

Getting public input is seldom a bad idea, but in this case, public education is what is needed. As attractive as the leafy canopy of a Russian olive or Siberian elm can be, the trees don’t belong here. They suck up precious water and can damage the water table. Project Preserve, run through the Santa Fe Girls School, has pulled some 14,000 Russian olive trees out of the ground over the years along the Santa Fe River south of town. Not all trees, in other words, are created equal.

For now, Smith will get some well-deserved rest (his crews recently hauled off eight truckloads of weeds, branches and trash over four days). The city can get public input — city river coordinator Brian Drypolcher points out that people have strong feelings about removing trees, even ones that are essentially a nuisance. Feelings, though, should not trump science and common sense.

It’s important, of course, not to let one person determine what happens along the river banks. But by all accounts, Smith had worked with the city and other river groups as he went about his work. He wants to move east, between Delgado Street and Paseo de Peralta, continuing the cleanup. And, he wants to start cutting live trees.

Assess his work, yes, but then, let the volunteer who is willing and able to help the river thrive continue. So many people — whether schoolchildren, watershed association members, environmentalists, city staffers — have worked to make the Santa Fe River healthy again. In 2007, remember, the Santa Fe River was listed as America’s Most Endangered River by American Rivers. We have come so far in less than a decade.

Today, the trails along the river, its flowing water (in some months, anyway) and better-kept banks have made the river a welcome attraction. Complaints should not stop the progress — review, form a plan and then get back to work.

After attending the June 11 and Aug. 12 Rockology hearings, I can only imagine three reasons the county commissioners failed to vote on the La Bajada mining application: They want to approve it but are afraid to disregard public opinion and common sense; they want to deny it but are deathly afraid of a legal challenge; they hope by continuing it indefinitely the application will be withdrawn, sparing them the necessity of a vote.

Eventually the commissioners are going to have to declare themselves. Foolish, irresponsible money grubbers or responsible representatives listening to the will of their constituents? Time will tell.

Santa Fe Editor’s Note: A Wednesday letter (“Court to hear appeal on water case”) referred to an Aug. 21 hearing. That hearing has been canceled.

From the Santa Fe New Mexican: August 21, 1914: Juan José Catanach, a young native who was certainly struck by something, claims he was struck by a meteorite — “a stone from heaven” while working in a field just above the big reservoir in Santa Fe canyon. Catanach displays a peculiar livid burn on his side about the size of a man’s hand, resembling a burn inflicted by lightning. What gives color to the boy’s story is that it is hard to conceive that a person could be so burned by lightning and escape alive.

August 21, 1964: Seven students from New Mexico have enrolled and have been accepted for the first freshman class at St. John’s College in Santa Fe. The class, slated to graduate in 1968, will begin studies on Oct. 1, on the new campus. The seven are: John Joseph Lair, Harold Maurice Morgan Jr. and Lester Quintan Strong, all of Albuquerque; Cecil Jayne Howell and Alan William Shaw, both of Santa Fe; Cristopher Ward Ballmer, Grants; and Elliott Warren Woodward, Los Alamos.

PREP BOYS SOCCER PREVIEW

Dragons want encore of team’s best-ever season

By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

Mazatl Galindo was all by himself at the Municipal Recreation Complex on Wednesday, but he didn’t mind it one bit.

The Monte del Sol head boys soccer coach knew some of his players were going to miss practice to go on a school-sanctioned camping trip. He just didn’t know all of them were going to be gone until after the scheduled practice time.

Other coaches might be upset that their entire team

didn’t come to practice, especially since the Dragons’ season opener is Friday against Santa Fe High at the Sangre de Cristo Classic in Taos, but Galindo was just happy knowing his team was spending time together.

“It has no effect whatsoever,” Galindo said. “In fact, I’m the type of coach that wants his players to be relaxed. Obviously I want them to be successful, but it’s really about finding the joy and inspiration that brings us together. I’m glad that they’re spending time together camping.

To me, that is even better than

coming over here. Creating that friendship and that social experience together as a team cannot be translated into any of the drills. I’m happy that they can actually do that. It’s all good.”

As the Dragons bond somewhere in the wilderness, they are just about to follow up their most successful season in school history. They were awarded the No. 4 seed in last year’s Class A-AAA State Tournament, and they backed it up by getting to the semifinals, where they were

Texans-Broncos practice features ‘chippy’ moments

By Arnie Stapleton The Associated Press

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Denver Broncos right tackle Chris Clark took exception when J.J. Watt pushed him around in a 1-on-1 pass-rushing drill and kept right on motoring toward the imaginary quarterback.

Clark finally broke free with a swipe at the Houston Texans star that sent the passrusher’s helmet bouncing on the ground.

“Don’t get mad when you get beat,” Watt hollered at Clark.

That turned into the theme of Wednesday’s joint workout in full pads, one of which ended with a lot of jawing and posturing after Texans safety D.J. Swearinger loudly celebrated his interception of Peyton Manning in an 11-on-11 drill.

“I picked off Peyton today and I guess

that got them a little chippy,” Swearinger said. “The offense did great, ran the ball down their throat, so, hey, I would get mad, too. That’s all it is: players making plays and people getting mad.”

Broncos cornerback Chris Harris said it’s one thing to pick off Manning and quite another to go all gaga over it.

“His swag just went to another level,” Harris said.

So did the Broncos’ indignation.

“There’s about 200 guys out here,” Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib said. “It’s hard to avoid.”

No punches were thrown, however, as is so often is the case in these types of gettogethers. After all, players realize it’s a little too close to final cuts and the start of the season to risk fighting at practice.

ALBUQUERQUE — From its infamous hair-pulling star to this week’s breaking news of freshmen hazing, The University of New Mexico women’s soccer program just keeps gaining the kind of media attention it doesn’t want.

On Wednesday afternoon in the Touchdown Club of University Stadium, athletic director Paul Krebs and solemn-looking head coach Kit Vela addressed the media regarding the latest black eye for the women’s soccer program.

Laying out a Paul Krebs detailed timeline that began when Vela received a phone call from a player’s parent at 2 a.m. Monday, the entire program was shaken to its core when allegations of hazing began to go public. According to Krebs, all 31 players on the team were involved and five freshmen players were at the center of what he called a blatant case of hazing by the older players on the team.

He said the freshmen were taken to multiple locations around Albuquerque late Sunday, whereupon they consumed enough alcohol to send two players to the hospital.

Earlier reports indicated the freshmen were forced to strip naked and had urine splashed on them. Krebs said separate interviews with the players confirmed that no nudity was involved, but they were stripped down to their underwear. He also denied the use of urine, saying the liquid in question was a type of window-washing fluid that one might find at a gas station.

Regardless, he said, there is no denying that the players were heavily intoxicated and the actions of the team’s older players are at the center of what he calls an ugly case of hazing.

“All of this is collectively is wrong, it’s indefensible, there’s no way to sugarcoat it,” Krebs said. “It happened.”

Two freshmen, twin sisters Devin and Danielle Scelsi, were among the players involved. Both have since quit the team and disenrolled from school.

UNM subsequently canceled its scheduled season opener Friday night at Texas Tech, saying it didn’t seem right to take the field in light of the current state of the program.

Krebs said “everything’s still in play” when asked about the possibility of canceling further matches, including the entire season.

“I think anybody who thinks that [hazing] builds a team, that there’s any value to it, is sadly mistaken,” Krebs said. “I think all hazing does is

LITTLE LEAGUE WORLD SERIES

Las Vegas spoils Mo’ne’s night, beats Philly 8-1

By John Kekis The Associated Press

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. — Dallan Cave and Brennan Holligan hit two-run homers, lefty reliever Austin Kryszczuk got out of two big jams, and Las Vegas (Nev.) beat Philadelphia and star pitcher Mo’ne Davis 8-1 in the Little League World Series on Wednesday night.

That puts Las Vegas in Saturday’s U.S. title game and sends Philadelphia into an elimination game on Thursday night against Chicago’s Jackie Robinson team. The Great Lakes champion beat Pearland, Texas, 6-1 on Tuesday night in an elimination game.

Davis, the darling of the sports

world with her amazing success and poise, was both masterful and ordinary on a night made short because of pitch-count rules. She allowed three runs and six hits and struck out six in 2⅓ innings before leaving after 55 pitches. That makes her eligible to pitch again in the U.S. championship game Saturday.

Davis played first after her stint on the mound and was switched to right field in the top of the sixth.

The grassy hill beyond the outfield fences at Howard J. Lamade Stadium was jammed with so many cheering fans in lawn chairs that it looked like the bleacher section at any ballpark as 34,128 fans craned to see every pitch.

The 5-foot-4 Davis, who has given the Taney Youth Baseball Association Little League in Philadelphia fame that no one could have imagined, tries to use the first two innings to get to know the home plate umpire’s strike zone, and the first time through the order gauges where the opposing players don’t like the ball.

It worked like a charm in her first outing in the World Series as she pitched a two-hit shutout. She didn’t get that chance on this night against hard-hitting Las Vegas, which had outscored its first two opponents 25-4.

Davis, her long braids flopping over her shoulders on every pitch, allowed hits to the first two batters as Philadel-

phia fell behind. Leadoff hitter Zach Hare lofted a soft single to center and Kryszczuk followed with a resounding triple to right center for a 1-0 lead.

Unfazed, Davis struck out the side, getting Holligan looking and Brad Stone and Andrew Matulich swinging.

Davis, just the 18th girl to play in the Little League World Series, began her eye-opening appearance in the showcase event by throwing a two-hit shutout in a 4-0 victory over Nashville, Tenn., becoming the first female to win a game in series history. Davis had eight strikeouts and didn’t walk a batter and needed only 70 pitches to complete the game.

Davis also threw a three-hit shutout

to lead Taney to an 8-0 victory over Delaware in the Mid-Atlantic Regional championship game, so she has a flair for the dramatic.

The glare of the spotlight on Davis and her teammates only grew as newly elected Major League Baseball Commissioner-elect Rob Manfred threw the ceremonial first pitch a day after Davis became the first Little Leaguer to appear on the cover of Sports Illustrated.

“Last week, this week, maybe next week, she’s owned the sports conversation,” Sports Illustrated Managing Editor Chris Stone said. “How often do you get to say this about a 13-yearold girl? It’s the easiest type of story to identify as a cover story.”

SPORTS

Dons: Finished 2013 with just 17 players Continued from Page B-1 latest renaissance period minus the encyclopedia-like playbook that so many teams treat like the holy book.

In fact, at the same practice, Dons assistant coach Doug Cavanaugh held a series of hand-drawn plays on half-sheets of white typing paper, each of them drawn up as if concocted over coffee and doughnuts over at Charlie’s Spic & Span.

“I think it actually makes it simpler,” said senior J.J. Montano, now entering his third year as the team’s starting quarterback. “It’s not as confusing, and I think it probably makes it harder for other teams to get ready for us. We don’t really have a style. We take what the other team gives us and we put together the plays as we go.”

It’s all part of the master plan of new head coach Adrian Gonzales, a first-year man who has worked in the West Las Vegas school district for nearly a decade, but spent most of that same time period as an assistant coach at hated rival Las Vegas Robertson.

Named the successor to Robert Alarcon back in March, Gonzales made it a point to bring another Cardinals assistant with him. Cavanaugh made the jump, too, leaving last year’s Class AAA state championship program for a Dons outfit that has had three straight 1-9 seasons and is winless against the Cardinals since 2008.

“I couldn’t have done this unless Doug came, too,” Gonzales said. “I believe we were both ready. We looked at West as an opportunity to build something special. We’d been over there for some great moments, so why not come

over here when you’ve just had that kind of success?”

While the Dons’ main focus is always on beating Robertson, even Gonzales admits it’s all about baby steps at West.

He inherited a program that finished 2013 with just 17 players, roughly half of whom were graduating.

He and Cavanaugh immediately started beating the bushes for new players. They found a few from the baseball program and another couple from the basketball team. They’re athletes, Gonzales said, but not necessarily football players.

Not yet, anyway.

Judging by the confidence some of the new faces are showing, they’re well on their way to getting the smack-talk portion of the game down pat.

“You get film of that?” asked receiver Miguel Sena after snaring a Montano pass, then weaving video game-like through the defense to the end zone during a recent practice.

“Those moves should be on film.”

As is the case with most clubs struggling to build a foundation, the Dons have their share of skill players. Montano will have four or five legitimate deep threats at receiver, but the concern is the line and the backfield.

Only one starter returns to the offensive line and, as of Tuesday, no one had claimed the starting roles at tailback or fullback.

On defense, Lopez anchors a solid linebacking corps, but the rest is — all together now — a work in progress.

What the Dons lack is size, a killer instinct and the belief that they can sustain success over the course of an entire season. Gonzales sees that and takes great pride to ensure the players remain focused on the big picture.

After nearly every snap, he would halt the team portion of practice to critique the linemen’s technique and remind blocking backs where they were supposed to go.

“It’s that football thinking

FAST FACTS u The Dons have won just one game each of the last three years and have not beaten crosstown rival Las Vegas Robertson since 2008. u Montano is a three-year starter at QB, but the real question is how well his OL will hold up since only one starter (Sal Lopez) returns.

beaten by eventual state champion Albuquerque Sandia Preparatory 3-0.

Regardless, it was the furthest the school has ever been, and Galindo believes that success can be duplicated with the return of eight seniors.

“I think we have a much stronger soccer team,” he said. “With the experience that we got last year, I think we can not only replicate the success, but I think that we can actually take the next step. I have confidence that we can continue to make history for the school.”

Monte del Sol lost leading scorer Luis Lozoya, but there are plenty of weapons coming back, including twins Shalto and Skye Dascher, Edwin Ochoa and Irwin Flores.

“Even though Luis is gone, a lot of the players that were juniors and are coming back as seniors, and they are strong and have been very involved in soccer,” Galindo said.

All those returners will give the Dragons a shot to challenge St. Michael’s for the newly minted District 2A-AAAA crown, but what if they run into a team like Sandia Prep again?

In order to compete with the powerhouse teams in the class, the Dragons will play Albuquerque Bosque School — last year’s A-AAA runner-up — on Sept. 2.

Galindo hopes Bosque will better prepare his team for the state tournament, but he also sees Bosque’s willingness to play them as a sign that the program is moving forward.

“Schools that are powerhouses want to play against us, meaning they want to play against teams that they know will challenge them,” he said.

“I see it as a recognition and as a compliment to our program.”

Of course, the Dragons also have to contend with a district that sent three teams to last year’s quarterfinals. Galindo still expects the district to be a three-way battle between St. Michael’s, Santa Fe Preparatory and Monte del Sol. “Nothing has changed,” he said. “It needs to be tough in order to have that level of competition. I think we are helping each other by being that tough.”

The biggest difference between Monte del Sol and those two other schools is that the Dragons have to use the MRC for practice and matches.

Galindo has said for several years that the soccer fields there are dangerous, and this year is no different. He has seen several players injured there over the years, and he hopes to see changes soon.

“When you see it from a distance, it’s a gorgeous sight, but it’s a dangerous place,” Galindo said of the MRC. “I’m quite surprised with how well the players do given all the bumps and holes. I’m not the only person that has mentioned that, and I’m not going to be the last. We are definitely grateful that we have a place to play, but it really has been an issue. It’s no fun for anybody to be on a field that is a mine zone.”

Still, Galindo doesn’t think poor field conditions are going to stop his team from being successful.

With all the progress the program showed last year, he believes it can only get better.

“It’s exciting for me to see them as a team that has the experience of going to the semifinals,” he said. “I think that’s really going to help our season moving forward.”

5A-AAAA Leading scorer Zoie Hensley and second leading scorer Lucia Constanza are gone from the Taos team that won District 1A-AAA last year. Also gone is head coach Michael Hensley, who is now in charge of the boys program this year. Casey Tonrey, formerly the Taos boys soccer head coach, will now be in command of the girls team. Four seniors were lost to graduation, but the team has 10 freshman and sophomores that will come in handy in later years.

Both Caitlin Diefendorf and Amber Yara — who scored 42 and 20 goals last year, respectively — return as seniors for Las Vegas Robertson.

That will give the Lady Cardinals a better chance to made a deeper postseason run as they were upset by East Mountain 3-2 last year in the first round of the A-AAA state tournament.

The Pojoaque Valley Elkettes finished 5-14 overall last year and 4-6 in the district to miss out on the state tournament, but they won their final two matches of the season. Notable losses are goalkeeper Amber Sky Lujan and forward Crystal Bustamante.

2A-AAAA Nique Enloe returns to St. Michael’s after leading the team in scoring the past two seasons. Cristiana Gabaldon is also coming back as well as goalkeeper Alyssa Evans. Second-year head coach Robyn Serge will be looking to repeat as the district champions as no one really challenged them during a 10-0 district run.

Marina Schachowskoj is back for her second year at the helm of Santa Fe Preparatory. The Blue Griffins finished 10-10 last year and lost to St. Michael’s 5-1 in the state quarterfinals. Last year’s leading scorer Brigid Quinn was lost to graduation.

Santa Fe Indian School has a new head coach in Justin Sanchez and new district opponents after playing in what is now 5A-AAAA. India Nixon is in charge of Monte del Sol, and she will have the task of trying to improve on last year’s 5-11 finish.

Justice Whitaker takes over at Desert Academy, the third new coach in the district. The team finished dead last in 2A-AAA last year with just one district win over SFIS. Notable returners are goalkeeper Rose Valenzuela and defender Zoe Castro.

The Academy for Technology and the Classics is taking the leap into varsity status this year with coach Eddy Segura, who currently has a roster of 25 with no seniors. Their first game is against Robertson at on Aug. 26.

BOYS 1AAAAAA Santa Fe High’s Robert Quirk takes

over for A.J. Herrera as head coach, and he and his team will have to venture into the new class without last year’s leading scorer, Josue de Luna.

Pedro Mayorga will be in the net again this year for the Demons.

2AAAAA The Los Alamos Hilltoppers finished behind second in the district, losing to Capital in the last match of the season last year. Head coach Evan Gartz lost leading scorer Colin Stone, but 12 seniors are on the roster, giving Gartz the senior leadership needed to overtake Capital as the district king.

The departures of Jason Alarcon, Luis Rios and Brayan Perez means the Capital Jaguars lost a lot of offensive firepower, but the return of goalkeeper Rene Arroyo and forward Jesus Garcia as well of a plethora of contributors will give Capital a shot at repeating as district champions.

5A-AAAA With new head coach Michael Hensley, the Taos soccer team is poised to make a run in the state tournament with the return of leading scorers Carlos Ruiz and Sean Morris, who combined for 35 goals last year.

Pojoaque Valley lost Grant Longacre and Jared Nicoll, but leading scorer Bryan Maldonado will be returning. The Elks finished 5-13 overall last year and missed out on the state tournament.

Ray Parks replaces Clarence Montoya as head coach at Robertson, and he will have the task of trying to bring the team out of the district dumps last year as it finished with a 3-7 district record to finish ahead of 0-10 Questa.

The Wildcats finished 3-11 last year with a very young team. Erik Sjoberg was the only senior lost to graduation, so Bill MacDonald should have most of his players coming back to try to get out of the bottom of the district.

The Peñasco Panthers are back after a year off with coach Jason Gonzales.

They finished 1-15 two years ago with their only win coming against Questa.

2A-AAAA Merritt Brown returns for his 10th season at St. Michael’s. Notable losses are goalkeepers Chris Legits and Tyler Trollinger, forward Geno Palmero and defender Sean Smith, so it will remain to be seen if the Horsemen can repeat as district champions.

Santa Fe Prep lost goalkeeper and captain Diego Perea and fullback Liam Daly, but last year’s leading scorer Sam Brill will stick around for two more seasons.

Desert Academy lost its leading scorer in Sudi Torres, but Jasper Grossman, Ian Stumbo and Noah Gibson return for coach Rob Lochner as the Wildcats try to compete in a district full of much larger schools.

Tierra Encantada is new to the party this year with its first varsity soccer season in school history.

Isotopes open series with rare win Tim Federowicz and Alex Guerrero each had three hits, while Brock Peterson homered and drove in a pair of runs as the visiting Albuquerque Isotopes beat Colorado Springs 7-4 in the opening game of a four-game Pacific Coast League series on Wednesday night.

The Sky Sox took a 4-3 lead after five innings, but Guerrero tied it with an RBI single in the top of the sixth, then Federowicz hit a two-run home run in the next frame to give Albuquerque the lead for good.

The win went to relief pitcher Bruce Billings (1-1), who spelled starter Matt Magill in the fifth inning. Billings logged three innings on the mound, then gave way to Yimi Garcia, who went the final two innings for his fourth save of the season.

Albuquerque (58-73) will seek its first two-game winning streak in nearly a full month Thursday in Colorado Springs.

The Sky Sox (51-81) are the only team in the PCL with a worse home record than the Isotopes, and they have the lowest winning percentage of any team in the league.

BASEBALL

Martinez, Rangers top Marlins The Associated Press

MIAMI — Nick Martinez allowed two runs in six innings in his homecoming, Alex Rios drove in Rangers 5 two runs, and the Marlins 4 Texas Rangers roughed up Miami starter Nathan Eovaldi on the way to a 5-4 win over the Marlins on Wednesday.

Leonys Martin had three hits for Texas, which led 5-0 after two innings.

Martinez (3-9) allowed six hits and threw 62 of his 96 pitches for strikes. He was born in nearby Hialeah and pitched at Belen Jesuit Prep, about 12 miles from Marlins Park.

Miami rallied in the ninth with solo homers by Marcell Ozuna and pinch-hitter Jarrod Saltalamacchia, both off Neftali Feliz. With the tying run on first, Feliz closed out his fifth save in six chances by striking out Donovan Solano.

PHILLIES 4, MARINERS 3 In Philadelphia, Wil Nieves doubled and had three hits, and Cole Hamels got a victory when he wasn’t at his best as the Phillies defeated Seattle.

Chase Utley had the go-ahead RBI, and Ben Revere and Marlon Byrd drove in runs for the Phillies, who won for just the third time in nine games.

Kendrys Morales homered for Seattle, which was bidding to move 12 games over .500 for the first time since 2007. The Mariners lost for the third time in 10 games.

Hamels (7-6) snapped his string of seven straight starts going at least seven innings, but earned the win. He gave up three runs and nine hits with four strikeouts, one walk and two wild pitches.

METS 8, ATHLETICS 5 In Oakland, Calif., Lucas Duda hit a three-run homer, Eric Campbell also connected, and New York beat the Athletics to snap a three-game losing streak.

Zack Wheeler (9-8) allowed two earned runs while working 5 ⅔ solid innings. The Mets split their quick two-game interleague series.

Wheeler is 6-0 with a 2.12 ERA over his nine outings since June 30. He is 4-1 in his last 10 road starts.

Jeurys Familia relieved Vic Black with the bases loaded and one out in the eighth and walked in a run but avoided further damage. He finished for his fourth save.

BLUE JAYS 9, BREWERS 5 In Milwaukee, Jose Bautista’s three-run homer capped a fiverun sixth inning, and Toronto outslugged the Brewers, snapping Milwaukee’s five-game winning streak.

Bautista hit a 1-2 pitch from reliever Brandon Kintzler into the Brewers’ bullpen in right field.

The homer made a winner of R.A. Dickey (10-12), who gave up five runs in 5⅔ choppy innings.

Dickey left after Carlos Gomez’s two-run homer in the bottom of the sixth made it 7-5.

Colby Rasmus also homered for Toronto, which outhit the NL Central leaders 15-10. The Blue Jays completed a 2-6 trip.

ROCKIES 5, ROYALS 2 In Denver, Matt McBride hit his first career grand slam, and Jorge De La Rosa pitched eight crisp innings, helping Colorado

cool off Kansas City.

The loss trimmed the Royals’ lead to one game over Detroit in the AL Central.

Danny Duffy (8-11) was cruising along with a 2-1 lead until a two-out error by third baseman Christian Colon in the sixth opened the door for a big inning.

AMERICAN LEAGUE TIGERS 6, RAYS 0 In St. Petersburg, Fla., Rick Porcello pitched a three-hitter for his AL-leading third shutout, and Victor Martinez hit a grand slam, leading Detroit over Tampa Bay. The Rays lost their fourth in a row.

Porcello (14-8) moved into a tie for the AL lead in wins, retiring 20 straight batters after Ben Zobrist’s double in the first.

Porcello walked none and struck out four in his first win since Aug. 2. He matched Miami’s Henderson Alvarez for the major league lead in shutouts.

ASTROS 5, YANKEES 2 In New York, Scott Feldman shut down the slumping Yankees again, and Robbie Grossman snapped a seventh-inning tie with a two-run single that sent Houston to a victory.

Dexter Fowler had an RBI double, Jose Altuve added a runscoring single, and the Astros (54-73) did more damage to New York’s playoff chances with their fourth victory in five meetings this season. Houston won a series at Yankee Stadium for the first time in four tries.

The fourth-place Astros improved to 4-7 in the Bronx and will go for a three-game sweep Thursday.

ANGELS 8, RED SOX 3 In Boston, Josh Hamilton broke out of a slump with two hits and three RBIs, Howie Kendrick drove in two runs, and Los Angeles beat the Red Sox. Hamilton was in a 5-for-41 slump with 18 strikeouts but hit two sacrifice flies and then singled in the Angels’ final run in the ninth inning.

The Angels’ seventh win in eight games put them 1½ games ahead of Oakland but it was costly. Right-handed starter Garrett Richards sustained a patellar injury in his left knee while running to cover first base in the second inning.

ORIOLES 4, WHITE SOX 3 In Chicago, Nelson Cruz took the major league lead with his 33rd home run, and surging Baltimore completed a three-game sweep of the White Sox. Adam Jones and Steve Pearce also homered for the Orioles, who have won four straight and extended their AL East lead to nine games over second-place Toronto.

Baltimore posted its first sweep in Chicago over the White Sox since July 1995.

Cruz’s homer was a two-run shot in the fourth off Hector Noesi (7-9) that gave Baltimore a 3-2 lead. Cruz is one ahead of White Sox rookie Jose Abreu and Miami’s Giancarlo Stanton for the homer lead.

INDIANS 5, TWINS 0 In Minneapolis, Rookie T.J. House pitched shutout ball into the sixth inning, and Mike Aviles had three hits and two RBIs to lift Cleveland over Minnesota.

House (2-3) walked three and struck out five, and scattered four hits over 5⅓ innings. Four relievers combined to blank the Twins the rest of the way,

running Minnesota’s scoreless streak to 17 innings.

Another rookie, designated hitter Zach Walters, hit his sixth home run of the year in the second inning to put Cleveland on top 1-0. It was Walters’ third home run in eight games with the Indians since he was acquired from Washington.

The home run was the 17th allowed in 20 starts by Ricky Nolasco (5-9), who gave up four runs and eight hits in 6⅔ innings.

NATIONAL LEAGUE NATIONALS 3, DIAMONDBACKS 2 In Washington, pinch-hitter Anthony Rendon’s RBI single in the bottom of the ninth inning lifted the surging Nationals past Arizona for its ninth straight victory.

Bryce Harper opened the ninth with a single off Evan Marshall (4-3) and went to third on Kevin Frandsen’s base hit. Out of the starting lineup for the first time in 63 games, Rendon ripped a single past third baseman Cliff Pennington, scoring Harper.

Five of Washington’s last six victories have been by a single run with four coming in its last at-bat.

The Diamondbacks tied the game in the eighth on Ender Inclarte’s two-run homer against reliever Tyler Clippard. Rafael Soriano (3-1) pitched the ninth.

PIRATES 3, BRAVES 2 In Pittsburgh, Justin Upton dropped a routine fly ball in the ninth inning which set the stage for Gaby Sanchez’s gamewinning sacrifice fly that capped a comeback as the Pirates beat Atlanta.

David Carpenter (4-4) took the loss after allowing an unearned run.

Pittsburgh snapped a sevengame losing streak, and ended Atlanta’s five-game winning streak.

Upton drove in a run with a single in the first inning after Jason Heyward walked and Freddie Freeman singled. Upton’s single extended his hitting streak to 11 games.

GIANTS 8, CUBS 3 In Chicago, Jake Peavy pitched seven solid innings in his fifth start with San Francisco, and the Giants rolled past the Cubs, hours after they won a protest regarding a rain-shortened loss from the night before.

Hunter Pence and Andrew Susac homered, and Travis Ishikawa drove in three runs with pair of doubles among three hits to help the Giants strengthen their hold on an NL wild card spot.

Peavy (2-3) has won two straight after losing his first three starts with San Francisco following a July 26 trade from Boston where he was 1-9.

CARDINALS 7, REDS 3 In St. Louis, Lance Lynn beat Cincinnati for the third straight time, Jhonny Peralta hit a basesclearing double, and the Cardinals completed a three-game sweep.

Reds starter Johnny Cueto (15-7) was off-kilter from the get-go and missed a chance to become the majors’ first 16-game winner. He allowed five runs in five innings, and his seven-game winning streak ended.

Hazing: Two went to hospital Continued from Page B-1 humiliate, tear down; it’s divisive. I think at times in the culture of athletics there are some that might believe it’s a teambuilding exercise, but it’s far from it. It’s just the opposite.”

This is the second incident that has received negative national attention during Vela’s tenure as head coach. In 2009, then-Lobo Elizabeth Lambert gained infamy for violently tugging on the pony tail of Brigham Young player Carlee Payne during a Mountain West Conference tournament match.

The incident was caught on film and brought instant negative blowback from people around the country.

Some of that feedback was directed at Vela for not taking disciplinary action on Lambert before she lost control and wrestled Payne to the grass.

Sitting next to Krebs on Wednesday, she spoke softly and timidly.

“I am a mother and with them

I am like a surrogate mother to 29 young women,” she said.

“Like any parent I am very disappointed and angry.”

Echoing Krebs, she said this latest public relations disaster could be construed as a learning experience for those involved.

“My main focus is how can

we help them learn a life lesson,” she said. “Be remorseful, understand the gravity of the situation and still go forward. I think in life, unfortunately, we make mistakes. It’s human to make mistakes and that’s part of the education at a university.”

Broncos: Denver O-line better Continued from Page B-1 “We wanted to stay clean out here,” Swearinger said. “We’re not out here to start nothing with nobody, we’re out here to get good work.

Both teams got good work. It got a little chippy at the end but it’s all football. It’s part of the game.”

Broncos safety Rahim Moore said the chippy moments were actually a good sign.

“They’re no punks and neither are we,” Moore said. “So at the end of the day you do all your talking with the pads. Today they had a great day, we had a great day. So I actually like it because they’ve got a bunch of competitive guys that we would love to go against each other every day. It’s a great way for us to see how we match up, so we love it. It’s fun.”

It wasn’t all frayed nerves and trash talking, either.

Top draft pick Jadeveon Clowney and star left tackle Ryan Clady battled to a draw several times during the 1-on-1 pass-rushing drills that proved the highlight of the two-hour practice.

Clowney sought out Clady afterward and the two exchanged a fist bump in a show of sportsmanship.

The Clowney-Clady matchup was one of the many benefits of the four hours of joint practices so far this week that both head coaches insist far outweigh the inevitable emotions that come with them.

“You can’t really simulate this when you go against each other,” Texans coach Bill O’Brien said. “The competition level rises, you see different schemes. You hear different communication on both sides of the ball. The coaches work together. We’re able to talk to Denver’s coaches and vice versa about some of the things they’re doing, what they’re looking for, what we’re looking for. I thought both teams worked very well together.”

Despite the pick at the end, Manning and the Broncos’ offense played much better than they had 24 hours earlier when Manning called out his teammates over a sloppy practice.

“I’m sure a lot of our guys noticed that he wasn’t happy on the field,” offensive coordinator Adam Gase said. “I spoke my mind in the meetings. I’m not really going to do it out here for everybody to watch, but I said my piece. We made sure that we came out here and had a better day.”

The teams have one more joint practice Thursday, this time in shells and shorts.

New frontier of fly fishing

In brief Meetings to explain shooting program The Department of Game and Fish scheduled meetings across the state to explain changes in the shooting program for youth shooting club leaders.

Meetings begin Monday in Roswell and will continue for a week. All meetings are scheduled for 6:30 p.m.

“In the past, youth clubs benefited from the agency purchasing ammunition and other shooting equipment,” said Jessica Fisher, shooting program coordinator. “In the future, we intend to offer financial assistance for the clubs to purchase equipment and other products they need. We also will be emphasizing ‘responsible hunting’ through better marksmanship.”

Here are the schedule meetings and their addresses: Monday — 1912 W. Second St., Roswell; Tuesday — 2715 Northrise Drive, Las Cruces; Sept. 2 — 3841 Midway Place NE, Albuquerque; Sept. 3 — 215 York Canyon Road, Raton.

For more information, call Fisher at 476-8100.

f there is any sport that leans heavily on local knowledge, it’s fly fishing.

A myriad of factors go into the success of a fly fishing trip: The weather, temperature of air and water, timing and type of fly hatch, the density of streamside growth, the fisherman’s expertise — and more. Plus, for reasons only known to them, the fish may be biting on one kind of bug one day, but not the next.

“Our local knowledge is in real time,” said Wayne Thurber, owner of Dos Amigos Anglers fly shop and guiding service in Eagle Nest, Taos and Red River, part of the Enchanted Circle area of Northern New Mexico. “We have to key into the environment every day, just like the fish do. They know where their ‘buffet’ is. We have to match the hatch.”

For Thurber, a native of warm-water Texas, every trip out into the Northern New Mexico wildlands is a rousing success because of where you are — not what you catch. Be it at Eagle Nest Lake, up the Rio Hondo, in Cimarron Canyon or on the Rio Grande, the diverse landscapes and views will take your breath away as much as landing a big one, he says.

“Fly fishing is not about the fish as much as the experience and adventure,” Thurber said. “Every day we get to be in a spectacular environment full of wildlife and wild plants. Can’t beat that.”

And Thurber believes that the experience will be further enhanced by a fishing guide brimming with local knowledge and fly-fishing expertise. They turn over rocks and see what insects will be hatching that day — and then match the artificial flies.

“Most people who come into our shops have a limited time to go fishing,” says Thurber. “So a professional guide makes total sense in order to get the most bang for your buck.”

Professional guides at Dos Amigos are insured with state and federal agencies, certified in CPR and first aid, hold the necessary permits and have their plans for guiding approved by the appropriate agencies.

“New Mexico is the new frontier for fly fishing,” Thurber says. “Other states, like Colorado and Wyoming, are well-known. But New Mexico … I don’t know how many times I’ve heard a newcomer say, ‘I had no idea …’ It’s a real treat to be around them when they get that gee-whiz moment.”

That said, here’s some of Thurber’s thoughts on the major fisheries in Northern New Mexico:

Cimarron River The river yields hatchery and wild rainbows, browns and some native cutthroats. Stream access is good, with some low-hanging bushes. Flows fluctuate with releases from Eagle Nest Lake Dam, but the windy route through the canyon produces riffles and eddies where fish hang out. Thurber calls it “a special fishery” that is one of the best cold-water fisheries in the West. And, you’re likely to see an eagle or osprey or hawk.

Eagle Nest Lake Kokane salmon and northern pike predominate here at an 8,300-foot elevation, but there are hatchery rainbows, schools of yellow perch and small herds of carp to be caught, too. The main boat ramp is the primary access, and Dos Amigos keeps track of lake levels, which often means a boat rather than shore fishing. During a recent drier year, the hatch of the blue damsel, a rainbow favorite, didn’t materialize. However, Dos Amigos found that rainbows were circling the lake looking for their bug, so there was great fishing.

Red River Above the town are beaver ponds that produce lots of trout, but areas below the town can be murky when it rains. Thurber likes the lower portion around the trout hatchery, especially when the browns from the Rio Grande come up the Red River to spawn. It’s nearly a year-round fishery, he says, with plenty of runoff and consistent bug hatch.

Rio Grande This wild fishery in a deep canyon gives up browns, small-mouth bass, northern pike and behemoth carp (20 to 30 pounds). Main access into the canyon is at Pilar, John Dunn Bridge and Wild Rivers Recreation Area. Rafting companies run float trips for fishermen on some sections.

Thurber likes to take guests down the steep canyon trail at Wild Rivers Recreation Area because few fishermen make the strenuous hike.

Rio Costilla To Thurber, parts of the Valle Vidal along this mountain stream resemble the cliffs of Yosemite National Park in California. The fish are smaller than some in the stream, but the population is strong. A four-wheel drive through Costilla Park into the Latir Lakes at 11,500 feet produces a spectacular alpine landscape with native cutthroat trout. It’s good for a new fisherman, Thurber says, because it’s mostly meadow fishing.

Rio Hondo Tricky fishing here because of tight, bushy shoreline. Thurber calls it “stealth fishing” because it precludes a full stroke of the rod. Fishermen need to be in shape to fish this river, especially upstream from the ski area base in the high altitude.

FOR THE BIRDS

Bird activity very strong in Santa Fe backyards

By Anne Schmauss For The New Mexican

L

esser goldfinches are common and numerous in area backyards right now, but all bird activity has been strong. August is usually peak time for goldfinches in our area, and if you are not seeing them at your house, it’s not hard to attract them.

Add a thistle feeder. I like the mesh style — a thistle sock or stainless mesh. This style forces the goldfinches to cling to the feeder, which they can easily do, but other birds like sparrows aren’t good clingers. This way your shy goldfinches have a feeder pretty much devoted just to them.

Make sure the thistle you use is fresh. It might look and smell fine, but if it’s been around for too long it can dry out and no longer appeal to your birds.

You can also see goldfinches hanging onto your native shrubs and flowers harvesting the seeds.

Branching sunflowers, purple coneflowers, cosmos, chocolate flowers and chamisa are just a few of the plants that will all attract goldfinches. Like the American goldfinch, the lesser shares the same bouncy, dipping flight pattern.

Some of you will see goldfinches all year, but most lesser goldfinches will migrate a bit south (Albuquerque boasts lesser goldfinches all year long).

It sure feels like summer this week, but the birds

Silvia Ator took this photo of a lesser goldfinch this month in her Santa Fe backyard.

seem to think fall has begun. We’re starting to see the very early stages of fall migration, though I’m using the word migration loosely here. Some birds like white-breasted nuthatches don’t migrate long

distances, but they do start to show up in local backyards this time of year. Many may have nested at a bit higher elevation but are now coming down to establish fall/winter feeding territories. By feeding them now you may encourage their continued presence all winter long. Don’t be surprised to see mountain chickadees showing up in your backyard along with the nuthatches.

In the last week, we’ve had many reports of pinyon jays flocking together and taking over some backyard feeders. People are also starting to see western tanagers. They will soon be heading south to Mexico. Some of the birds with the longest way to go, like tanagers and orioles, leave the earliest.

Hummingbird activity continues to be very strong with many migrants moving through our area.

Keep feeding hummingbirds until you haven’t seen one for two weeks. It is not unusual to see some hummingbirds through October. Last week we had a report of the unusual rose-breasted grosbeak and several reports of the beautiful lazuli bunting.

Birds are starting to move in anticipation of the change of seasons so keep your feeders and birdbaths full and fresh and enjoy.

Anne Schmauss is the co-owner of Wild Birds Unlimited in Santa Fe and she loves to hear your bird stories. She is the co-author of For the Birds: A Month by Month Guide to Attracting Birds to Your Backyard. Her new book, Birdhouses of the World, came out in April.

The Cibola National Forest is collaborating with the Talking Talons Youth Leadership program to develop a variety of winter recreation programs on the Sandia Ranger District and will hold workshops to gather input from the public.

The first workshop will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday at the James McGrane Safety Complex conference room, at 48 Public School Road, in Tijeras. District Ranger Cid Morgan said in a news release that public participation is extremely important to the success of this process and invited all interested parties to participate.

“We are excited about our collaboration with the Talking Talons because we will be able to offer a wide variety of winter recreation and educational activities on the Sandia Ranger District,” Morgan said.

The topics that will be discussed at this meeting are: u Management of Capulin snow play area and winter/snow trails. u Increasing access to winter recreation sites. u Establishing a “Kids in the Winter Woods” conservation education program.

For more information, email Bob Heiar, recreation staff officer at the Sandia Ranger District, at rheiar@ fs.fed.us or call 281-3304, ext. 115.

Commission buys riparian habitat The Department of Game and Fish announced Aug. 8 that the New Mexico State Game Commission recently purchased more than 1,000 acres of riparian habitat called The River Ranch along the Mimbres River in southwestern New Mexico.

The $585,000 purchase will allow Game and Fish to manage the property and its diverse wildlife habitat.

The department’s “Share With Wildlife” tax-refund check-off donations, which is money targeted for nongame wildlife conservation, helped with about half of the purchase price.

The State Game Commission made the purchase of the River Ranch possible though a conservation easement by the ranch owners, Gene and Elizabeth Simon. The Simons wanted to protect the ranch from development, preferring for it to be managed for conservation and education.

“The River Ranch is an opportunity for the department to conserve valuable habitat for many wildlife species,” department Director Alexa Sandoval said.

The River Ranch is part riparian area and part Chihuahuan desert grasslands, with an adjoining 2,920 acres of state and federal leased lands that supports a high diversity of native plants and wildlife.

The last free-flowing stretch of the Mimbres River cuts through the property, supporting large sands of broadleaf cottonwood, Arizona walnut and other large-diameter trees, including the New Mexico’s State Champion velvet ash tree.

Deer, black bears, Arizona gray squirrels, cougars, Merriam’s turkeys, Gambel’s quail and two species of bats also call the River Ranch home.

or are there other, more specialized tools that I can buy for less than this price?

-- David TOM: There is a tiremounting tool that you can buy for less than 50 bucks, David. It’s called a visit to your local gas station, where you ask them to mount and balance the tires for you.

RAY: Actually, you could just upgrade to some tire irons. That’s a set of two, or sometimes three, specialized, curved-end metal bars that serve as levers that help you pry a tire o≠ a rim -- or get it back on there.

TOM: That’ll be a little better than hacking at your tires with a lug wrench (which is designed to remove hubcaps) and a hammer, which probably is what you’re doing now. But it’s still less than ideal. You still can damage the bead with tire irons, and itvery di∞cult to add the adhesive that’s supposed to go around the inside of the bead to reduce the chance of leaks when you inflate the tire.

RAY: So what you really need is your own tiremounting machine. That’s a

machine that does what you’re now doing by hand, but it does it with consistent pressure so the tire bead doesn’t get damaged.

TOM: In order to mount a tire to a wheel, you have to pull the bead of the tire (the inside edge) over the lip of the wheel. Then the tire sits inside the wheel and, when inflated, pushes out against that lip to form an airtight seal.

RAY: You’re doing it the old-fashioned way, with brute force. The only problem is that sometimes you pull too hard and damage the tire bead.

TOM: Unfortunately, I doubt you’ll be able to find a tire-mounting machine for $50. I think you’re looking at more like 10-20 times that, even for a used one. I’m guessing $500 is the minimum you’d pay, and the price is more likely to be $1,000-plus.

RAY: And then there’s the issue of balancing the tires.

All new tires look perfectly round and evenly weighted, but they’re not. And when they’re spun at high speeds, like when you’re driving 40, 50 or 60 miles per hour, those imperfections become more obvious. That’s why your car

TIRE-MOUNTING TOOL FOR $50?

A GUY CAN DREAM

BY TOM AND RAY MAGLIOZZI

Dear Tom and Ray: I go through a lot of used tires. To save money and add convenience, I manually dismount and mount the tires myself, using only a GM lug wrench (one end has pointed tip). This inevitably damages spots on the “bead” of the tire, resulting in leaks. I want to buy the proper tool that will prevent this damage while mounting tires for, say, around $50, if available. Can I get by with simply buying a crowbar,

might as well buy a couple of squeegees, install some gas pumps, open a filthy restroom and make a few extra bucks on the weekends.

TOM: There’s nothing inherently wrong with buying good used tires for your car. But they really should be balanced. That’s a safety issue at higher speeds. And if you’re damaging the bead and causing every new-old tire you buy to leak, you may want to consider having someone with the proper equipment mount and balance them for you, David.

RAY: Maybe the place you’re buying the used tires from has the equipment, and can install them for you? Unless, of course, you’re stealing the tires. In which case, we’d advise you to immediately start stealing the wheels with them. That way, they’ll come pre-mounted and balanced.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Alcohol shouldn’t be at kids’ events Dear Annie: I have a question for parents. Why, when the kids’ soccer, football or baseball games are over, do the parents open up the trunks of their cars and get out the beer? Tailgate parties with alcohol do not belong at children’s events.

When my children played sports, we went out for ice cream.

Alcohol was not permitted before or after. What kind of behavior is this teaching our children? Where are the police? They have to know this is happening. Their children play sports, too. Not to mention, these same parents put their children in the car and drive home after drinking in the parking lot.

Please explain this to me. — Concerned Grandparent Dear Concerned: There is no rational explanation. These parents are irresponsible and idiotic.

The organizations or schools that sponsor the sports should issue rules about parental behavior before, during and immediately after the games, and you (or the parents of your grandchildren) should request that it be done.

Dear Annie: My niece recently married her live-in boyfriend.

They chose to marry in another country, but didn’t send any announcements or invitations.

That’s fine, because it was expensive.

When one aunt who could afford the plane fare and hotel asked whether she could attend, she was told “no.” The only guests were the parents. The aunt was deeply hurt. I felt bad for her and angry with the bridal couple for being so rude. When they returned to the states, another family member asked whether there would be a reception and was told there wouldn’t be.

Now they are hinting for presents. My sister-in-law asked me to go in with her to purchase a rather expensive gift, and I refused because of the way they treated the aunt. My family is angry with me. Frankly, I never want to

hear from that niece again. Am I wrong? — Ex-Auntie Dear Ex: Yes. The bridal couple can invite whomever they wish, and if they choose a small, immediate-family-only wedding with no stateside reception, that is up to them. The aunt was wrong to ask for an invitation simply because she could afford it. If they wanted extended family to be there, they would have invited everyone.

For most folks, if you are not invited to a wedding, you are not obligated to give a gift. But this is family, and yours is trying to be gracious and happy for the newlyweds by giving a gift. If you don’t wish to contribute, that’s up to you. But please don’t cut off your niece because you didn’t approve of her guest list. At least send a card with your best wishes.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from “California Dreamin’, whose husband is overweight. My husband and I have been married for 49 years, and he, too, has gained a considerable amount of weight.

I try to cook healthy meals, but my efforts are sabotaged when he adds butter and salt. He has been counseled by his physician many times, to no avail. Twelve years ago, he had a massive hemorrhagic stroke that left him with severe deficits. Yet he continues to refuse to do what is needed to be as healthy and mobile as he can be.

This has put an incredible amount of strain on me. I can’t tell you how much time, effort and money has been spent helping him to be more mobile with less physical stress on my fibromyalgic body. But I love this man with my whole heart. I take our marriage vows seriously, and I cannot imagine my life without him. I will continue to care for him until death do us part. I am not writing for sympathy. I accept my life as a gift from God, and I accept caregiving as my gift to others. — Still in Love

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH A loved one could become very demanding regarding a financial concern.

Tonight: Be willing to clear out extra work, even if it takes you all night.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH You might feel as if you are caught between a rock and a hard place. You need to rethink a problem and come to a decision.

Tonight: Choose a favorite mental escape.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You could be overwhelmed by all the choices an associate presents. Somehow you’ll need to figure out how to make a decision.

Tonight: Make it easy.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You will be in the mood to do less and let others carry more of their weight with a project. Fortunately, they will be up for taking on more responsibility.

Tonight: Keep it light and easy.

Cryptoquip

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You’ll see a personal matter differently from an associate. Sometimes discussing one’s personal problems with others provides perspective. Tonight: Schedule a message.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You’ll become more resourceful in spite of someone who keeps saying “no.” Don’t waste time feeling disappointed.

Tonight: Act as if there were no tomorrow.

Jacqueline Bigar
