Cop files suit over mental hospital stay Los Alamos officer with bipolar disorder was involuntarily taken to facility, seeks damages

By Steve Terrell The New Mexican

Brian Schamber is a Los Alamos police officer who suffers from bipolar disorder. Last December, his commanders forced him to go to the New Mexico Behavioral Health Institute in Las Vegas, N.M., where he involuntarily stayed for 10 days before he was released and cleared for

“He was cleared,” Jamie Sullivan, a lawyer representing Los Alamos County, said Wednesday. “We think he is a very good law enforcement officer.” But Schamber’s lawyer, John Day, said his client can’t go back to patrol duty because of a federal law that prohibits him from possessing a firearm because he was committed to a mental institution. “It’s ironic that at first they were anx-

active duty as a police officer by a policecontracted psychiatrist. In the seven months since his release, Schamber has returned to work, though he has been working from home, doing work that doesn’t require him to carry a gun. Today, both Schamber and the Los Alamos Police Department agree that Schamber is fit to be back on regular duty — gun and all.

ious to get him off of the street, and now they’re anxious to get him back on the street,” Day said. Sullivan argues that Schamber never was “committed” formally to a mental facility because his stay in Las Vegas was only an evaluation. The matter now is in federal court. Los

Judge grants Balderas access to behavioral health audit

FIELD OF DREAMS 60-YEAR-OLD GETS CHANCE TO PITCH

Human Services secretary denied auditor’s request to see report By Steve Terrell The New Mexican

State Human Services Secretary Sidonie Squier has refused to give State Auditor Hector Balderas a copy of the special audit that she says found evidence of alleged overcharging and possible fraud on the part of 15 behavioral-health providers. But on Wednesday, Balderas got a state district judge to subpoena the audit. Meanwhile, on Wednesday a federal judge in Albuquerque heard arguments by lawyers for Human Services and eight of the providers whose Medicaid funding was frozen because of the special audit. The eight firms are seeking an injunction to force Human Services to resume payments to the providers. However, U.S. District Judge Christina Armijo took no immediate action on the request. “It is necessary that my auditors fully review the report issued by Public Consulting Group Inc. in order to assess the risks to public funds and the potential impact on the Human Services Department’s financial affairs,” Balderas said in a written statement. “I formally requested the report from Secretary Squier pursuant to state law, but unfortunately the Department refused to comply with my lawful request. I am disappointed that I have been forced to take legal action to prevent the obstruction of a thorough audit of these taxpayer dollars.”

Program to use texts to help fight drug trafficking By Robert Nott The New Mexican

Federal, state, and county law-enforcement agencies are asking for the public’s help in reining in drug trafficking in Rio Arriba and Santa Fe counties by reporting anonymous tips via a new texting service that immediately connects the texter to a Drug Enforcement Agency agent. Community leaders and law-enforcement representatives from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Albuquerque, the El Paso division of the DEA and the New Mexico Department of Public Safety, among others, joined to stage a news conference Wednesday to draw attention to the new TIP 411 program. They gathered on the shoulder of U.S. 84/285 in Pojoaque, right below a new billboard advertising the program in Spanish (Reporte el tráfico de droga anónimamente). A second billboard, printed in English, stands nearby. “There is sometimes no better information than what comes from the public,” said U.S. Attorney Kenneth Gonzales, a Pojoaque native. Joseph Arabit, a DEA agent for the El Paso division, said similar programs in El Paso and Albuquerque have netted a total of about 500 anonymous reports, many of which have led to arrests, convictions or at least a “disruption” in drug trafficking activities. He acknowledged that sometimes such calls are so vague that they are of little help, and said sometimes

Probe of art heist may end in oven Mom says she burned works to aid suspect; art lovers decry loss By Alison Mutler and Jill Lawless The Associated Press

DIG UNEARTHS NEW GIANT OF WEST IN SWAMPIER TIMES A reconstruction of a Nasutoceratops titusi is photographed following a news conference at the Natural History Museum of Utah on Wednesday in Salt Lake City. Researchers said they discovered a new type of big-nosed, horned-faced dinosaur that lived about 76 million years ago in the area of what is now the Grand StaircaseEscalante National Monument in southern Utah. The dinosaur was a wide-bodied plant-eater that grew to 15 feet long and weighed more than 2 tons. It is considered unique for its oversized nose and its exceptionally long, curved and forward-pointing horns over the eyes. RICK BOWMER/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

In brief House votes to delay parts of health law WASHINGTON — The Republican-led House voted on Wednesday to delay core provisions of President Barack Obama’s health care law, emboldened by the administration’s concession that requiring companies to provide coverage for their workers next year may be too complicated. After a day of heated rhetoric, the House voted largely along party lines, 264-161, to delay by one year the so-called employer mandate of the Affordable Care Act. It voted 251-174 to extend a similar grace period to virtually all Americans who will be required to obtain coverage beginning Jan. 1, the linchpin of the law. The dual political-show votes marked the 38th time the GOP majority has tried to eliminate, defund or scale back the unpopular law since Republicans took control of the House in January 2011. The House legislation stands no chance in the Democraticrun Senate.

‘Rolling Stone’ cover on suspect draws ire NEW YORK — Sultry eyes burn into the camera lens from behind tousled curls. A scruff of sexy beard and loose T-shirt are bathed in soft, yellow light. The close-up of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on the cover of Rolling Stone to hit shelves Friday looks more like a young Bob Dylan or Jim Morrison than the 19-year-old who pleaded not guilty a little more than a week ago in the Boston Marathon bombing, his arm in a cast and his face swollen in court. Has the magazine, with its roundly condemned cover, offered the world its first rock star of an alleged Islamic terrorist? The same image of Tsarnaev was widely circulated and used by newspapers and magazines before, but in this context it took on new criticism and accusations that Rolling Stone turned the bombing defendant into something more appealing.

WASHINGTON — The little girl whose custody case divided the U.S. Supreme Court last month should be returned to the couple who have attempted to adopt her since birth, South Carolina’s highest court ruled Wednesday. The state Supreme Court, in a 3-2 ruling, ordered a family court to finalize the adoption of “Baby Veronica” by Matt and Melanie Capobianco of Charleston, S.C. and to terminate the parental rights of the girl’s biological father, Dusten Brown. That court had earlier ordered the girl removed from the Capobiancos when she was 27 months old to be sent to live with Brown, who is a registered member of the Cherokee Nation. Brown had given up rights to the girl before she was born, but he later embraced fatherhood. He successfully argued before the South Carolina court that the Indian Child Welfare Act, which erects high hurdles for adoptions outside the tribe, meant the child should be with him. Veronica’s birth mother never married Brown, and she had chosen the Capobiancos to raise the child. Veronica has lived in Oklahoma with Brown and his new wife for the past 18 months.

Dogaru — whose son is the alleged heist ringleader — claims she buried the art in an abandoned house and then in a cemetery in the village of Caracliu. She said she later dug the paintings up and burned them in February after police began searching the village for the stolen works. Prosecutors have not said whether they believe her account, but Pavel Susara, a Romanian art critic, said the story has the ring of truth. “Olga Dogaru describes how she made the fire, put wood on it and burned the paintings, like she was burning a pair of slippers,” he said. “She’s either a repressed writer or she is describing exactly what she did.” And now the museum staff have found exactly what forensic experts say they were seeking — materials such as canvas, wood, staples and paints that indicate the ashes were the remains of artworks. The next step would be to compare them to what is known about the missing paintings. Art market experts said the Rotterdam thieves may have discovered what many art thieves have before them — that easily identifiable paintings by famous artists are extremely difficult to sell at anything like their auction value. “Criminals who are successful in their usual endeavors are often undone by a foray into art theft,” said Robert Korzinek, a fine art underwriter at insurer Hiscox. “They steal these works of art … and then they have the problem that they can’t dispose of them.” Mariette Maaskant, spokeswoman for Rotterdam’s Kunsthal, said Olga Dogaru’s allegation “underscores the pointlessness of the theft.” “If this terrible news is true, then the last trace of hope that the art works would return is definitively gone,” she said. “It would be a loss that touches every art lover.”

“I can’t think of another instance in which one has glamorized the image of an alleged terrorist. This is the image of a rock star. This is the image of someone who is admired, of someone who has a fan base, of someone we are critiquing as art,” said Kathleen Hall Jamieson, a communications professor and the director of the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania.

BUCHAREST, Romania — It may be a case of art to ashes — and scientists are trying to get to the bottom of the mystery. A Romanian museum official said Wednesday that ash from the oven of a woman whose son is charged with stealing seven multimilliondollar paintings — including a Matisse, a Picasso and a Monet — contains paint, canvas and nails. The finding is evidence that Olga Dogaru may have been telling the truth when she claimed to have burned the paintings, which were taken from a Dutch museum last year in a daring daylight heist. Ernest Oberlander-Tarnoveanu, director of Romania’s National History Museum, told The Associated Press that museum forensic specialists had found “small fragments of painting primer, the remains of canvas, the remains of paint” and copper and steel nails, some of which predated the 20th century. “We discovered a series of substances which are specific to paintings and pictures,” he said, including lead, zinc and azurite. He refused to say definitively that the ashes were those of seven paintings stolen from Rotterdam’s Kunsthal gallery last year, because he said it was not his position to do so. He said justice officials would make that decision. He did venture, however, that if the remains were those of the paintings, it was “a crime against humanity to destroy universal art.” “I can’t believe in 2013 that we come across such acts,” he said. Oberlander-Tarnoveanu said forensic specialists at the museum have been analyzing ashes from Dogaru’s stove since March, and will hand their results to prosecutors next week. The seven paintings were stolen last October in the biggest art heist to hit the Netherlands for more than a decade. Thieves broke in through a rear emergency exit of the gallery, grabbed the paintings off the wall and fled, all within two minutes. The stolen works have an estimated value of tens of millions of dollars if they were sold at auction. Thieves took Pablo Picasso’s 1971 Harlequin Head; Claude Monet’s 1901 Waterloo Bridge, London and Charing Cross Bridge, London; Henri Matisse’s 1919 Reading Girl in White and Yellow; Paul Gauguin’s 1898 Girl in Front of Open Window; Meyer de Haan’s Self-Portrait of around 1890; and Lucian Freud’s 2002 work Woman with Eyes Closed. Three Romanian suspects were arrested in January, but the paintings have not been found. Romanian prosecutors say Olga

22 die from tainted school meals Insecticide-laced food sickens dozens of children in India By Indrajit Singh

The Associated Press

Officer Dennis Vafier, of the Alexandria Police Department, uses a laptop in his squad car to scan vehicle license plates during his patrols Tuesday in Alexandria, Va. Local police departments across the country have amassed millions of digital records on the location and movements of vehicles with a license plate using automated scanners.

Camera network allows the police to track drivers By Anne Flaherty and Calvin Woodward The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — You can drive, but you can’t hide. A rapidly growing network of police cameras is capturing, storing and sharing data on license plates, making it possible to stitch together people’s movements whether they are stuck in a commute, making tracks to the beach or up to no good. For the first time, the number of license tag captures has reached the millions, according to a study published Wednesday by the American Civil Liberties Union based on information from hundreds of law enforcement agencies. Departments keep the records for weeks or years, sometimes indefinitely, saying they can be crucial in tracking suspicious cars, aiding drug busts, finding abducted children and more. Attached to police cars, bridges or buildings — and sometimes merely as an app on a police officer’s smartphone — scanners capture images of passing or parked vehicles and pinpoint their locations, uploading that information into police databases. Over time, it’s unlikely many vehicles in a covered area escape notice. And with some of the information going into regional databases encompassing multiple jurisdictions, it’s becoming easier to build a record of where someone has been and when, over a large area. While the Supreme Court ruled in 2012 that a judge’s approval is needed to use GPS to track a car, networks of plate scanners allow police effectively to track a driver’s location, sometimes several times every day, with few legal restrictions. The ACLU says the scanners are assembling a “single, high-resolution image of our lives.” “There’s just a fundamental question of whether we’re going to live in a society where these dragnet surveillance systems become routine,” said Catherine Crump, a staff attorney with the organization. The group is proposing that police departments immediately delete any records of cars not linked to any crime. Although less thorough than GPS tracking, plate readers can produce some of the same information, the group says,

revealing whether someone is frequenting a bar, joining a protest, getting medical or mental help, being unfaithful to a spouse and much more. In Minneapolis, for example, eight mobile and two fixed cameras captured data on 4.9 million license plates from January to August 2012, the Star Tribune reported. Among those whose movements were recorded: Mayor R.T. Rybak, whose city-owned cars were tracked at 41 locations in a year. A Star Tribune reporter’s vehicle was tracked seven times in a year, placing him at a friend’s house three times late at night, other times going to and from work — forming a picture of the dates, times and coordinates of his daily routine. Until the city temporarily classified such data late last year, anyone could ask police for a list of when and where a car had been spotted. As the technology becomes cheaper and more widespread, even small police agencies are able to deploy more sophisticated surveillance systems. The federal government has been a willing partner, offering grants to help equip departments, in part as a tool against terrorism. Law enforcement officials say the scanners are strikingly efficient. The state of Maryland told the ACLU that troopers could “maintain a normal patrol stance” while capturing up to 7,000 license plate images in a single eight-hour shift. “At a time of fiscal and budget constraints, we need better assistance for law enforcement,” said Harvey Eisenberg, assistant U.S. attorney in Maryland. Law enforcement officials say the technology automates a practice that’s been around for years. The ACLU found that only five states have laws governing license plate readers. New Hampshire, for example, bans the technology except in narrow circumstances, while Maine and Arkansas limit how long plate information can be stored. The ACLU study, based on 26,000 pages of responses from 293 police departments and state agencies across the country, found that license plate scanners produced a small fraction of “hits,” or alerts to police that a suspicious vehicle had been found.

PATNA, India — The children started falling violently ill soon after they ate the free school lunch of rice, lentils, soybeans and potatoes. The food, part of a program that gives poor Indian students at least one hot meal a day, was tainted with insecticide, and soon 22 of the students were dead and dozens were hospitalized, officials said Wednesday. It was not immediately clear how chemicals ended up in the food at the school in the eastern state of Bihar. One official said that the food may not have been properly washed before it was cooked. The lunch was cooked in the school kitchen. The children, between the ages of 5 and 12, got sick soon after eating lunch Tuesday in Gandamal village in Masrakh block, 50 miles north of the state capital of Patna. School authorities immediately stopped serving the meal as the children started vomiting. Savita, a 12-year-old student who uses only one name, said she had a stomach ache after eating and started vomiting. “I don’t know what happened after that,” Savita said in an interview at Patna Medical College Hospital, where she and many other children were recovering. The children were rushed to a local hospital and later to Patna for treatment, said state official Abhijit Sinha. In addition to the 22 children

who died, another 25 children and the school cook were in the hospital undergoing treatment, P.K. Sahi, the state education minister. Three children were in serious condition. Authorities suspended an official in charge of the free meal scheme in the school and registered a case of criminal negligence against the school headmistress, who fled as soon as the children fell ill. Angry villagers, joined by members of local opposition parties, closed shops and businesses near the school and overturned and burned four police vehicles. Sahi said a preliminary investigation suggested the food contained an organophosphate used as an insecticide on rice and wheat crops. It’s believed the grain was not washed before it was served at the school, he said. However, local villagers said the problem appeared to be with a side dish of soybeans and potatoes, not grain. Children who had not eaten that dish

were fine, although they had eaten the rice and lentils, several villagers told the AP. Sinha said the cooked food and kitchen utensils have

been seized by investigators. “Whether it was a case of negligence or was intentional, we will only know once the inquiry has been conducted,” he said. India’s midday meal scheme is one of the world’s biggest school nutrition programs. State governments have the freedom to decide on menus and timings of the meals, depending on local conditions and availability of food rations. It was first introduced in southern India, where it was seen as an incentive for poor parents to send their children to school. Since then the program has been replicated across the country, covering some 120 million school children. It’s as part of an effort to address concerns about malnutrition, which the government says nearly half of all Indian children suffer from.

N. Korea arms seizure could hurt U.S.-Cuba ties By Michael Weissenstein and Peter Orsi The Associated Press

HAVANA — Cuba’s admission that it was secretly sending aging weapons systems to North Korea has turned the global spotlight on a little-known link in a secretive network of rusting freighters and charter jets that moves weapons to and from North Korea despite U.N. sanctions. The revelation that Cuba was shipping the arms, purportedly to be repaired and returned, is certain to jeopardize slowly warming ties between the U.S. and Havana, although the extent of the damage remains uncertain. Experts said Cuba’s participation in the clandestine arms network was a puzzling move that promised little military payoff for the

risk of incurring U.N. penalties and imperiling detente with Washington. The aging armaments, including radar system parts, missiles and even two jet fighters, were discovered Monday buried beneath thousands of tons of raw Cuban brown sugar piled onto a North Korean freighter that was seized by Panama as it headed for home through the Panama Canal. North Korea is barred by the U.N. from buying or selling arms, missiles or components, but for years U.N. and independent arms monitors have discovered North Korean weaponry headed to Iran, Syria and a host of nations in Africa and Asia. The U.N. says North Korea also has repeatedly tried to import banned arms. What’s more, analysts say, it maintains a thriving sideline in repairing aging Warsaw Pact gear, often in exchange for badly

needed commodities, such as Burmese rice. “They don’t know how to grow rice, but they know how to repair radars,” said Daryl Kimball, executive director of the Arms Control Association, a private group dedicated to promoting arms control. “The North Koreans are taking desperate measures to pursue that work. Despite the best efforts of the international community to cut off arms transfers to and from North Korea, it will continue in some form.” The surprise for many observers was that the latest shipment of arms headed to North Korea comes from Cuba, which acknowledged late Tuesday that it was shipping two anti-aircraft missile systems, nine missiles, two Mig-21 fighter jets and 15 jet engine, saying they were headed to

North Korea to be repaired there. The discovery aboard the freighter Chong Chon Gang was expected to trigger an investigation by the U.N. Security Council committee that monitors the sanctions against North Korea, and Panamanian officials said U.N. investigators were expected in Panama on Thursday. Britain’s U.N. Ambassador, Mark Lyall Grant, said that “any weapons transfers, for whatever reason, to North Korea would be a violation of the sanctions regime.” Democrat Robert Menendez, the Cuban American chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, “Weapons transfers from one communist regime to another hidden under sacks of sugar are not accidental occurrences.” Panama’s seizure of the freighter, which saw its North Korean captain

try to commit suicide and 35 crewmen arrested after resisting police efforts to intercept the ship in Panamanian waters, was badly timed for officials working on baby steps toward a limited detente between the U.S. and Cuba. High-ranking Cubans were in Washington on Wednesday for migration talks. “I don’t think you can sugarcoat this,” said Ted Piccone, senior fellow and deputy director for foreign policy at the Washington-based Brookings Institution. “You have a suspicious cargo of weapons going to a heavily sanctioned state, and this is bad for U.S.-Cuba relations. The timing, the same week as the restart of long postponed migration talks, couldn’t be worse.”

Suit: Officer stayed in facility for 10 days Continued from Page A-1 Alamos County filed an action in May asking a federal judge to rule that there’s no federal prohibition against Schamber working as a police officer. Schamber this week filed a countersuit asking for compensatory damages, including loss of earnings, loss of benefits, loss of promotional opportunities, loss of career and lost earning capacity. He also is asking for punitive damages. There is no specific dollar amount listed in the countersuit. According to court documents, this is what happened: Schamber, who was hired by the Los Alamos police in 2010, was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in June 2012. Both sides in the case agree that bipolar disorder does not disqualify someone from being a certified officer in New Mexico. He also was diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder. For the next several weeks, Schamber was prescribed various medications to treat his condition. In early October he was cleared to return to full duty. In November, police Chief Wayne Torpy suffered a stroke and took extended medical leave (he retired earlier this year). Captain Randy Foster became acting chief. Schamber claims that Foster and acting Deputy Chief Scott Mills began harassing and intimidating him. On Dec. 21, Torpy and Mills learned that Schamber had an appointment with Española psychiatrist Gregory Baca. According to the county’s court action, at that appointment Schamber asked Baca “why it seemed like I was evil and always had thoughts of harming other people.” Later that day, Schamber was on patrol with another officer. According to the county’s suit, Schamber, who was driving, turned the steering wheel to the right toward the man and said “right in the kneecaps, that would be funny.” Schamber, the suit said, “also told his partner that he was planning on leaving his gun at home the following week because he was starting his medication again and that the last time he started medications he had had thoughts that he wanted to hide in the bushes on Longview Drive and hit people in the head with a metal bat.” “Apparently cops have a dark

sense of humor,” Day told The New Mexican on Wednesday. Sometime that day, Baca sent an email to Foster saying Schamber should not have a gun. Foster later told Schamber to surrender his gun and ordered him to go to the Los Alamos Medical Center. He was admitted to the hospital but was determined to be no threat to himself or others. However, after speaking to Foster and Baca, the hospital reversed that evaluation. The next day, Schamber was in his car with his wife. He was pulled over by a fellow Los Alamos officer. “During the stop, Mr. Schamber was forcibly removed from his car, handcuffed, arrested, placed in a patrol car and involuntarily taken back to the Los Alamos Medical Center,” the countersuit says. At the hospital he was “forcibly restrained against his will, sedated against his will, administered medications against his will, and stripped of his clothes,” the countersuit says. A doctor there signed a “Physician’s Certificate for Involuntary Commitment.” He was taken by ambulance to the state hospital in Las Vegas, where he stayed for 10 days. During his stay, Schamber was “repeatedly and heavily sedated against his will,” the countersuit says. For the first three days he was so heavily medicated his judgment was impaired. Dr. Susan Cave, who examined Schamber for the Los Alamos Police Department, cleared him to go back to regular duty. On Feb. 14, Cave stated that “[i]t appears there were a lot of misstatements and reports to medical staff both in Los Alamos and [the state hospital] that later did not bear out to be correct. There is no evidence that [Schamber] was psychotic in December 2012 or since.” Schamber claims he was threatened by Foster and Mills, and that his home had been searched by police while he was in Las Vegas. Foster in January tried to get Schamber decertified by the state Law Enforcement Academy Board. That action still is pending, Day said. Foster was fired in June after an internal investigation over what had happened to Schamber, the countersuit says. Contact Steve Terrell at sterrell@sfnewmexican.com.

Joy: Free camp helps students catch up The camp is funded by local community foundations and other sources to the tune of about $10,000.

Continued from Page A-1 offered at no cost. Funded by local community foundations and other sources to the tune of about $10,000, the program gives rising third-grade students who are stumbling in reading some extra encouragement. According to school Principal Geetha Holdsworth, who is one of the teachers in the Reading Camp, about 30 publicschool students are in the program this summer. Some of the school’s teachers, as well as its current students and alumni, work with the kids from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday. “It helps them see reading is purposeful and fun,” Holdsworth said. “For many of them reading is a chore, so we try to show them through play and hands-on activities that it is not a chore. We create a safe environment where missing a word or making a mistake is OK.” Reading Camp staff perform a reading assessment before and after the kids take part in the process. According to Holdsworth, data from last year show kids improved at least one grade level in reading. Among the games Holdsworth’s team came up with — either by borrowing best practices from around the country or on their own — is Word Baseball, in which the students first have to correctly pronounce a word before they get to swing at the ball. Students can ask for more difficult words as the game progresses and they run the bases. Reading Road Race is like Monopoly, as its players move small roadsters around a game board and exchange money. Except the cards don’t read “Go

to jail” or “You Are Assessed for Street Repairs,” but rather, “Replace spark plugs” and “Your Car Skids on a Banana Peel.” How well the players read dictates how quickly and far they move ahead on the board. Gabby Farrar, who said she is going into the third grade at Atalaya Elementary School this coming school year, said she has actually written some books, including one called Frances, about a girl who likes to write who goes to live with her grandmother because her aunt is kind of rough on her. Farrar loves to write, but when asked why she doesn’t read well, she said, “I don’t know. That part’s confusing.” She said she enjoyed Reading Camp and is learning new words. For Damian Bustamante, who said he is going into the third grade at Nava Elementary School, reading is important “so you can get a good job.” Among the older kids working as tutors at the camp is 13-year-old Emma Ehlers, who is going into the eighth grade at the Santa Fe School for the Arts & Sciences (which serves kids from age 3 to grade 8). She wanted to help out, she said, because, “When I was younger I wasn’t the best

reader. This teaches them at a young age that they can be successful at reading.” Reading Camp teacher Lani Ersfeld — who teaches Spanish at the school during the regular school year — said of the campers, “Every one of them has been referred by their teachers. They’re usually the quiet kids who fade into the background or fall into the cracks. Here we can pinpoint what their needs are and work with them to address them.” Of the 14 kids in her Reading Camp class, Ersfeld estimated that 10 of them are English language learners, which can be a “big part of the reason” they’re having trouble reading. She added that she believes the fact that kids are growing up in a culture of instant technological gratification — “We are always on the phone, we are always on the computer, we are always on the telephone” — complicates matters when it comes to engaging students in reading. “They’re not finding time to sit down and read and explore and learn that reading is magic,” she said. “And if you read enough, that magic will come.” The Reading Camp ends Friday. Holdsworth said she hopes the school can operate it again next year, but she’s not sure it can handle more children. “Part of what makes this work is that we keep it small,” she said. “But if we could share this program with all kids, it would be awesome.” According to recent Standards Based Assessment scores, just over 50 percent of New Mexico’s students are reading proficiently. Reading scores among fourth-, fifth- and sixth-graders dropped this past year by 4.1 percent, 3.8 percent and 1.5 percent, respectively.

Texts: Similar texting programs in El Paso and Albuquerque Continued from Page A-1 tipsters change their minds while texting and thus don’t provide enough information. Eric Garcia, director of public safety for the city of Española, said the texting program serves as an “added tool in law enforcement’s tool box … but we have to have buy-in from New Mexico residents as well. “Without that buy-in, this will be an unsuccessful program. … If we want our kids to be safe, if we want our grand-kids to be safe, this is what we have to do.” Texts made to TIP 411 will be handled by a third-party vendor, Citizens Observer, who ensures anonymity by

then passing on the information to a New Mexico DEA agent, Arabit said. The DEA will initially investigate the report and decide if it is a federal case — depending, for instance, on the amount of drugs involved and whether the participants are well-known repeat offenders. If it is not a federal-level case, the DEA will turn over the information to the responsible local or regional law-enforcement agency. Not every case coming in on the tip line will be prosecuted on the federal level, Arabit said, but “we will look at it as if it will be prosecuted federally … in lock step with local and state partners.” Federal offenses usually carry stiffer fines and penalties for convicted criminals.

The texter can type in “drugs” or “drogas” to gain immediate attention, Arabit noted. If the text happens to be about a crime that is not drug-related, the tip also will be passed on to the relevant authorities. If, however, tipsters want to give more information, reveal their identity or be eligible for any sort of reward for information, they still have to call their local DEA office: 505-452-4500 Several of the speakers in the assembly noted that while drug use and trafficking have been heavy in the Española Valley, they are seeing fewer cases involving heroin and more prescriptiondrug use, particularly among teens. Española Mayor Alice Lucero and

Bruce Richardson, a community activist who lives in Chimayó, both said regional efforts to combat drug use, including education and youth programs aimed at keeping kids off the street as well as a heightened police presence, are having a positive impact in the war on drugs. Richardson said Chimayó used to be a “drug epicenter. … We’ve kind of displaced it. Lots of tips start at the local level. Our goal is to disrupt and dismantle such activity.” But he acknowledged that drug dealers and other criminals can simply shift their activities to another community until pressure is brought against them again. Asked whether there might be

a chance of another high-profile, multi-agency drug raid like the one conducted in Anthony, N.M., this past spring, Arabit said, “The short answer is yes.” He said the DEA is paying more attention to Rio Arriba and Santa Fe counties and that there are two to three agents patrolling the region each week. The speakers stressed that other agencies, including Homeland Security and the state National Guard, are involved in the program. “We’re not here to tell you we are going to stop it [drug dealing],” Garcia said, “but we can make a serious dent.” Contact Robert Nott at 986-3021 or rnott@sfnewmexican.com.

Audit: Subpoena requires report be available on Monday Continued from Page A-1 Public Consulting Group, a Boston company, was paid more than $3 million to audit the providers. In a July 11 letter to Squier, James Noel, lawyer for the State Auditor’s Office, said the State Audit Act requires his office to “thoroughly examine and audit the financial affairs of every state agency.” Noting that Human Services has said the special audit showed credible evidence of fraud, Noel said the department is required to “report immediately, in writing, to the state auditor any violation of a criminal statute in connection with financial affairs.” Squier on July 12 responded in a letter to Balderas saying she was declining to release the audit to him. “At this time no determination has been made that any individual or entity violated federal or state criminal statue, nor does [Human Services] have the authority to make such a determination,” the letter states. Of the federal laws and regulations that require the department to turn “credible evidence of fraud” over to the state attorney general for investigation, Squier said, “Such a referral is not a finding of fraud by this agency.” She said she had to decline Balderas’ request because it could jeopardize the state attorney general’s investigation. State District Judge Sarah Singleton of Santa Fe on Tues-

day signed a subpoena requiring Squier to permit the state auditor to inspect the Public Consulting Group audit at 10 a.m. Monday. Department spokesman Matt Kennicott said Wednesday that Squier and department lawyers will have to look over the subpoena before deciding on their course of action. Earlier in the week, Rep. Stephen Easley, D-Santa Fe, and Sen. Benny Shendo, D-Jemez Pueblo, chairmen of a legislative subcommittee on behavioral health, delivered a five-page letter to Balderas requesting his office examine the Public Consulting Group audit. The letter raised issues including the role of OptumHealth, the company in charge of overseeing the behavioral health providers, and how the five Arizona companies — with which the state is contracting to take up the slack of the providers under investigation — were chosen. On Tuesday, Gov. Susana Martinez told reporters that the Arizona companies were chosen because they have done similar work before. “They’ve been able to pick up services when there have been problems in other states, where there have been other allegations of fraud or misuse or mismanagement,” she said. “We want to make sure those patients have quick access.” Contact Steve Terrell at sterrell@ sfnewmexican.com.

Tuning in to ’50s fever By Adele Oliveira The New Mexican

IF YOU GO

n the darkened stage of the James A. Little Theater, about two dozen girls scurried into place during a recent morning rehearsal. As the lights came up, the girls, costumed in flared skirts and saddle shoes, engaged in an ear-splitting shriek as Conrad Birdie, the central character in the 1960 Broadway musical Bye Bye Birdie, began to sing. Conrad — played by 16-year-old St. Michael’s High School student Carlos Vazquez Baur — wore a silver lamé shirt and shades. He swiveled his hips, Elvis-style, smirked and projected an assured confidence particular to pop stars. “The kids really wanted to do another show about the ’50s,” Pandemonium Productions director Chris Leslie said. “We’d already done Grease several times, and they wanted to do it again, but we said no, let’s do something we’ve never done before.” Fifty-six kids between the ages of 7 and 17 will perform in the production. Pandemonium is now in its 13th season, and Leslie has worked with young performers in Santa Fe for 20 years, first at Santa Fe Performing Arts. Anyone can sign up for Pandemonium’s summer camp, which culminates in a show and costs about $700 for six weeks. The group also offers classes during the school year and performs three shows a year. Bye Bye Birdie is based on the story of Elvis Presley being drafted into the Army in 1957. When rock-‘n’-roll sensation Conrad Birdie is drafted, his agent/songwriter Albert Peterson (played by Dick Van Dyke on Broadway and in the 1963 film version) and Albert’s girlfriend/ secretary Rosie Alvarez hatch a plan for Conrad to perform a new song, “One Last Kiss,” on the Ed Sullivan Show before enlisting. Writing the song will help Peterson get out of debt so he can fulfill his dream of becoming a high school English teacher. To entice fans, Kim MacAfee, a randomly chosen high school girl from Conrad’s fan club, will receive a kiss from Conrad after the performance. Kim has recently gone steady with

Hugo Peabody, who, along with the town of Sweet Apple, Ohio, is thrown into a frenzy when Conrad shows up. “Part of the fun was teaching the kids about the 1950s,” Leslie said. “We told them facts about the ’50s every day, and asked questions like how many TVs they have in their homes. Most said two or three, but one kid had nine. I told them when I was growing up, we had two sets, one in black-and-white and one in color.” Leslie said there are parallels between Birdie and the contemporary culture’s obsession with fame. “I think they connect to the paparazzi aspect,” he said. In contrast to the norm in the ’50s, “probably 90 percent of these kids have phones,” Leslie said. “They’re used to instant gratification. It can be hard to get them to focus for a lengthy rehearsal, but we do it, and we have a lot of fun.” Alex Gallegos, a 16-year-old St. Michael’s High School student who plays Albert, agrees that rock star fever is alive and well: “Millions of girls still idolize singers,” he said. “Just look at [Justin] Bieber.” He said his role is more complex than pre-

vious parts he has played in Pandemonium shows. “Back when I was Aladdin, he’s just looking for love,” Gallegos said. “[Albert’s] struggling with multiple things, but in Disney, you’re just struggling to find love.” “We don’t realize how lucky we are,” observed 13-year-old Domenica Ieto, who attends Santa Fe School for the Arts and Sciences and plays Kim. “Back then [in the ’50s], people had to make do and had to just be with each other a lot more.” Sixteen-year-old Desiree Herburger, who plays Rosie and attends the New Mexico School for the Arts, noted that “people took going into the Army really seriously. They’re not like, ‘Conrad Birdie might die,’ but say it’s the right thing to do.” Vasquez Baur said the ’50s, at least as portrayed in Bye Bye Birdie, was a more innocent time. “If you didn’t listen to your parents, you were considered an anarchist,” he said. “And people ate together, that’s maybe the biggest difference. Most of my friends never eat with their families, but I eat with my mom.” Vasquez Baur also said that “falling in love was so much easier back then. Today, if you like someone, you look them up on Facebook and know everything about them. Then, it was more spontaneous.” His nostalgia for the ’50s extends to wishing drive-in movie theaters were still popular and thoughts of spending the summer rebuilding a 1957 Chevy pickup. To prepare for the role of Conrad, Vasquez Baur eschewed stars like Bieber and the boys of One Direction in favor of studying the King himself: “I watched a lot of old Elvis videos,” he said. “It’s just a lot of fun — I’m trying to imitate his leg pops.” Contact Adele Oliveira at 986-3091 or aoliveira@sfnewmexican.com.

A longtime New Mexico mediator who has been in the thick of some of the state’s most controversial environmental battles will talk about what she’s learned and her new book at 6 p.m. Thursday at the Collected Works Bookstore in downtown Santa Fe. Lucy Moore has helped broker gatherings between Northern New Mexico villagers, livestock producers, tribes and environmentalists. Her new book, Common Ground on Hostile Turf: Stories from an Environmental Mediator, has lessons for disparate groups who struggle to communicate with each other. Moore has witnessed the unfolding of events and political battles that marked much

of New Mexico’s history in the 1990s and 2000s. She mediated meetings between Pueblo and non-Pueblo people in the Pojoaque River Basin who were at odds over water rights but shared concerns about water quality. She watched as sheep ranchLucy Moore ers from Tierra Amarilla and environmentalists tried to find common ground over grazing, wildlife and land. Uranium mining, nuclear waste and endangered species on private land were just a few of the other controversial issues Moore has mediated over the years between culturally, racially, geographically and politically diverse parties. “The most striking thing for me over the years has been the power of an individual to make a difference in a conflict,” Moore said recently, speaking from a conference she was attending of tribal leaders and the U.S. Fish and

Wildlife Service. “Often we think of resolution to a conflict hinging on the right data, the right legal opinion, things like that. But really it depends more on the interaction between people, their history, their culture and their commitment to finding resolution or blocking it.” Moore said time and again, she watched as a person or a story told by a person changed the dynamics of attempts to resolve conflict. “My advice for anyone involved in resolving conflict is to really pay attention to the individuals,” she said. “Try to connect at as deep a human level as possible in the conflict. That’s where you are going to find some common ground and trust.”

Steven Farber didn’t get his way when the rest of the Santa Fe Charter Review Commission knocked down his ideas for regulating guns more strictly and treating marijuana possession less harshly. But the attorney and former city councilor says his biggest concern with the results of the group’s recent eightmonth project is its recommendation to give the mayor more power. As the commission approved its final report to the City Council on Wednesday, Farber submitted what he called a “minority report,” objecting to the the proposals regarding the mayor and advocating for other polices that were not recommended by the group. The City Council will decide about whether to seek voter approval of the proposed city charter changes during the municipal election in March 2014. At the heart of Farber’s report — several pages longer than the commission’s report — is criticism of what’s been called a “strong mayor proposal” that would amend five sections of the charter to allow the elected mayor to vote on all matters that come before Steven the council, require that the mayor work for no less than 40 hours a week Farber and not have another job, and expand the mayor’s power by giving the mayor sole authority to remove the city manager, city attorney, city clerk and department directors, among other provisions. “This deeply flawed proposal radically restructures City of Santa Fe government,” Farber wrote. “It is no exaggeration to state that the potential for an autocrat, an autocratic form of government, and political patronage are made possible through the proposed consolidation of such enormous power in the office of the mayor.” Farber called the proposal “complex, convoluted and controversial” and later added that it would leave the roles of the mayor and the city manager “completely ambiguous and confusing.” Councilor Patti Bushee, who has said she will run for mayor in the upcoming election and who has employed Farber as her legal counsel in the past, told commissioners during a public comment period Wednesday that she also believes the commission could choose to spend more time studying issues and noted that she will “have plenty to say” about the mayor proposal when it is before the City Council. The commission was originally comprised of nine members, each appointed by a city councilor and the mayor, but several members weren’t active through the whole process, including Boys & Girls Clubs of Santa Fe Executive Director Roman Abeyta, who resigned from the board. In addition to Farber, remaining members included its chairman, retired state Supreme Court justice Patricio Serna; Nancy Long, an attorney who has served on various city boards and committees; Houston Johansen, who was an unsuccessful candidate for a City Council seat in the north-side District 1 in the last city election; Carol Romero-Wirth, a lawyer who has been involved in civic affairs, government and politics; John B. Hiatt, an attorney who has held various government positions, including formerly serving as director of the city of Santa Fe Land Use Department; Daniel Werwath, a former employee of the Santa Fe Community Housing Trust and organizer of the After Hours Alliance; and Brian P. Gutierrez, president of a recycling company in Santa Fe. In all, the group discussed more than 30 proposals, from ideas raised at public comment sessions to written proposals from organizations such as the Santa Fe County League of Women Voters. Farber argues that the mayoral power structure plan urged by member Long and City Councilor Peter Ives came after an agreed-upon deadline for new proposals and that it “was not fully researched, analyzed and debated.” Other recommendations in the commission report would amend the charter to: u Establish a commission to draw boundary lines for City Council districts at least every 10 years. u Call on the City Council to adopt ordinances that “provide meaningful bans and/or limitations on campaign contributions” to candidates from contractors doing business with the city. u Require timely disclosure of the purposes of proposed tax increases or bond measures. The commission’s report also recommends the City Council consider ranked-choice voting, “as provided in the charter.” The system has never been implemented.

Flight rally planned Saturday for aspiring young pilots Aspiring aviators will have a chance enjoy free airplane rides from volunteer pilots at a flight rally Saturday at the Santa Fe Municipal Airport’s flight school, 87A Aviation Drive. Sponsored by the local chapter of the Experimental Aviation Association, Saturday’s rally will let children ages 8 to 17 get a firsthand look at what it’s like in the cockpit of a plane. According to a news release, the goal of the Young Eagles flight rally is to create connections between pilots and potential future aviators. Every child who goes on a plane ride is made a Young Eagle and receives a certificate and an access code for an online flight training course.

Planned burn could scorch In brief Head Start 900 acres near Angel Fire Two centers closing Black Lake burn area

Sangre de Cristo Chronicle

Upper Coyote Creek Watershed

ANGEL FIRE — A prescribed fire on up to 900 acres of forested land about five miles south of Angel Fire could burn within 150 yards from some homes in the Black Lake area this fall. “Nine hundred acres is going to put up a lot of smoke, and it’s going to have a lot of people concerned,” said Fire Chief Andy Bertges of Angel Fire. “Part of the prescription is winds from the southwest, so it will push all the smoke away from the communities and into the uninhabited areas.” A nonprofit organization based in Santa Fe, the Forest Guild is collaborating on the prescribed burn with about a dozen other entities, including the New Mexico State Land Office, the U.S. Forest Service and the fire departments in Angel Fire and Moreno Valley. The burn is scheduled for Sept. 30 through Oct. 4 in ponderosa pine and dry mixed conifer forests on state trust land immediately northeast of N.M. 434 and N.M. 120. The southern boundary of the proposed burn area is about 150 yards north of Susan Lane in Black Lake. Although the maximum allowable burn area includes 900 acres, Eytan Krasilovsky of the Forest Guild said, “We’re probably looking at somewhere between 750 and 850 acres.” The October 2012 Midnight Fire near Red River burned 363 acres, and the June 2013 Whites Peak Fire near Cimarron charred 1,275. The area will be divided into smaller sections that will probably be burned individually instead of at the same time, Krasilovsky said. “We’re not just lighting the whole thing at once,” he said, adding that the Forest Guild is contracting with a professional burn boss for the job. “They are going to use a variety of ignition techniques to ensure that it doesn’t go over holding lines.” Krasilovsky said the fire is expected to stay on the ground and out of the treetops. “We expect the fire to consume some of the dead and downed fuels on the ground,” he said. “We don’t expect it to kill the standing trees, but it might kill some. It’s not a scalpel. It’s not a precise tool. We can’t 100 percent say that none of the standing trees are going to eventually die, but we’re using all the best practices so the fire stays on the ground and consumes the grasses and shrubs.” Krasilovsky said the Forest Guild has asked the Bureau of Land Management to bring a mobile fire station to the proposed burn area in August to monitor site-specific weather trends that could affect the fire. “We’re doing a fall burn to have greater control over fire behavior,” he added. Materials from the Forest Guild state that forested land throughout Northern New Mexico has become overly dense because of wildfire suppression, overgrazing and logging activities, and that the reintroduction of fire helps return forested areas to a healthier state. Heavy fire fuels have already been removed from the pro-

posed burn area through mechanical thinning, which is a forestry technique whereby chain saws and other equipment are used to remove vegetation that could cause wildfires to spread. According to Mark Meyers, forester with the New Mexico State Land Office, fire plays a natural role in the ecosystem and will occur in the area one way or another. “We know that fire is coming,” he said. “So our effort is trying to shift the pattern of high-severity fires that jeopardize these communities and firefighters who are put up there to fight them, to a low-intensity fire that benefits the communities and the ecosystem.” Krasilovsky said the proposed burn will be a continuation of forest-restoration work already completed on a 12,000-acre parcel of state trust land that extends from Black Lake Ocate. The federal and state governments have already funded treatment projects in three adjacent sites on the western side of the parcel, according to project materials. A major goal of the restoration work is to help protect nearby residential areas from wildfires, Krasilovsky said. The Black Lake burn is also meant to help protect the Upper Coyote Creek watershed by reducing the risk of high-intensity wildfires and improving soil, understory diversity and hydrological conditions, according to project materials. Through a partnership with the U.S. Fire Learning Network, the burn will also serve as training for wildland firefighters, forestrestoration practitioners and private and state land managers. The training is meant to help build the capacity to use prescribed fires in New Mexico. “We need to have more prescribed-fire practitioners out there doing burns to keep the forests in a condition that is not susceptible to catastrophic fire,” Krasilovsky said. Most of the funding for the $171,836 project will come from the U.S. Forest Service’s Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program.

State needs OK to scan weapons records The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — The New Mexico Department of Public Safety has spent tens of thousands of dollars to digitize tons of paper records on concealed weapons licenses but doesn’t yet have required approval to implement its plan. The State Records Center and Archives is waiting for the department to submit a plan for scanning the records, KRQE-TV reported. “There’s a plan that needs to

come through, and we haven’t received that plan yet,” said John Hyrum Martinez, state records administrator. “We’ve been waiting on it.” The Department of Public Safety wants to reduce costs on storing records that it must keep for three years after a four-year license expires. So far in 2013, the agency has issued more than 6,600 new and renewed concealed-weapon licenses. The department spent $30,000 on four scanners and more to hire temporary work-

ers to process the records. Sgt. Suzanne Skasik, head of the concealed-weapons program, said DPS is working on its plan and she said she’s confident it will be approved by year’s end. In the meantime, the department also has spent $22,000 on three shipping containers to store the paperwork. Skasik said DPS is also looking at how concealed weapon programs work in other states, including those that allow residents to fill out paperwork online.

Presbyterian Medical Services announced Wednesday that it will close two Head Start centers in Santa Fe County due to funding reductions caused by the federal budget sequestration. The sites to be closed include the Chimayó Head Start and Nizhoni Early Head Start centers. The Chimayó center provided services for 20 children until the conclusion of the school semester in the spring. Those children will be able to get services at the Arroyo Seco and Nambé Head Start sites. The Nizhoni center, located on the campus of the Institute of American Indian Arts, serves 16 infants and toddlers. It will close effective July 26. In addition, three staff members were laid off, and other staff members were informed of two-week furloughs to be implemented in the current fiscal year. Presbyterian’s Santa Fe County Head Start Program currently serves 394 children. That number will be reduced to 374. It also serves 188 infants and toddlers, and that number will be reduced to 172. The number of sites will be reduced from 12 to 10. Presbyterian Medical Services has administered Head Start in Santa Fe County since 1996. The overall reduction in federal funding is $711,000 in the four counties in which Presbyterian administers services: Sandoval, San Juan, Santa Fe and Torrance counties.

Mother wants her son-in-law to help Dear Annie: My daughter, “Elizabeth,” is a professional who is married to an older man. I’ll call him “Jacob.” They have two children. Elizabeth recently was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and is going through intense chemotherapy. Early in her treatment, Jacob used to help a lot around the house with laundry and meals, and took good care of the kids. But she is halfway through her treatments, and although Jacob still looks after Elizabeth and the children, he expects her to do a lot more around the house. Of course, as soon as Elizabeth feels a little strong, she goes beyond her capacity and does too much. This aggravates me. Elizabeth never demands that Jacob help more. I had an argument with him over it. On the day of one of her treatments, I reminded him to be home in time to pick up the oldest child from school. He replied, “I will see when I will be finished at my mother’s.” I told him that on the day of the chemo, he cannot leave his wife alone with two children, supper and homework time. It is very tiring for her. He said he does not need to be reminded. Then we got into an argument, and he said we do not love him, we only do things for our daughter, and we are lucky he does not close the door in our faces. Annie, I worry about Elizabeth’s strength. We help as much as we can by cooking some meals, picking up the oldest from school, helping him with homework and taking the youngest so Elizabeth can rest. But Jacob allows her to do the laundry, cooking and shopping while he cuts the bushes, cleans the gutters and prays (he is very religious). She is not going to get well if she is exhausted. My sweet daughter always takes her husband’s side, and my husband tells me to look after my own health, because I had a mild heart attack a

Hocus Focus

few months ago. How do we handle this? — Distraught Mother Dear Distraught: We know you want Jacob to take over all of these chores, and we agree that he should do more on the days when Elizabeth has her chemo. But try to be more compassionate. Jacob is going through a difficult period, too, and also needs a break. Please do what you can for your daughter’s family. It is a great help when you can cook a meal or take the kids. If you can afford to hire someone to assist on the days when Elizabeth has a chemo treatment, that would be an amazing gift. Otherwise, please back off a bit. You are not helping yourself or your daughter by getting into fights with her husband and adding stress to her life. Dear Annie: “Iowa” wrote to say that her mother suggested she put down her 13-year-old cat because he has diabetes. She was upset that Mom was so negative. But Mom may be wiser than you think. I cared for my 18-year-old diabetic cat, who needed insulin shots daily. While the shots are easy to administer, the main problem is having to schedule your entire life around those injections. If “Iowa” is still in school, has a boyfriend and perhaps a part-time job and a busy social calendar, she might discover the responsibility of daily shots at regular times is a lot to incorporate. I was unable to accept a job that required irregular shifts and had to forgo summer vacations that involved being out of town unless I could take my cat with me. Because I made significant sacrifices for my cat, she enjoyed a good quality of life for five years. But the commitment is far more than just poking the cat with a needle. It is a major responsibility she cannot shirk when something more interesting comes up. — Lifetime Cat Lover

Eight felines to leave life-sized cat condo The ceiling superhighway started when they decided to divide the living room and dining room with a stained glass window. To keep cats from damaging the furniture, they added the floor-to-ceiling scratching post, wrapped with 395 feet of dyed pink sisal rope. The cats loved it, Walker said, but after chasing each other up the scratching post and across a suspended beam, they had to stop abruptly. The answer was tunnels and freeway extensions. Walker used 2- by 6-inch planks of Douglas fir. To accommodate the oldest members of the troupe, he added the 23-step spiral staircase into the TV room and a carpet-covered ramp into the bedroom. Over the years, they’ve had 35 cats, though never more than a dozen at once. They had eight litter boxes around the house and cleaned a lot, Walker said. In the motorhome, they don’t have as much to clean, but there is only room for one litter box — on the shower floor — and they have to change it at least twice a day. In Fredericksburg, they plan to buy a home and build a bigger, better, longer, stronger and more artistic catwalk. Walker said he’s anxious to start on a two-story cat house, but he’s a little worried about the slope challenge.

JOSEPHINE IPIOTIS Josephine Apodaca Ipiotis, born on September 10, 1926, died Sunday at her home on July 14, leaving Santa Fe without her smile for the first time in 86 years. Born within days of the first public burning of Zozobra in 1926, Jo was the exact opposite of Old Man Gloom. Always eager to go anywhere as soon as she put on her denim and concha belt, she was one of those rare people who enjoyed simple things from birds in the backyard to Fiestas to fantasies about good-looking jet pilots painting contrails in the blue skies above the bowling alleys that provided her with decades of fun. She was a wonderful, nurturing, teaching mother of four, grandmother of seven and great-grandmother of three, who cooked perfect dishes from lamb stew to paella. Her love of candy was surpassed only by her love for pinon nuts, which was surpassed only by her love for family and friends. She never had a cross word to say to or about anybody. She was preceded in death by her parents, Bernardo and Lorcentia Apodaca; husband, Ted Ipiotis; son, James Spiro Ipiotis; and daughter, Margaret Ann Armijo, and son in law Santiago A. Morales. She is survived by daughters: Jackie Morales, Joanna Ipiotis Romero (husband Ron), Dianna I. Jones (husband Del); grandchildren: Santiago, Chris, Sam, Charlotte, Stephen, Ciera and Douglas; great grandchildren: Gaige, Santiago and Nathaniel; and beloved companion/caregiver, Hortencia Juarez (husband Juan). A rosary will be at 7 pm, Thursday at Bernardinelli. Funeral services at 10 am on Friday at Santuario de Guadalupe. In lieu of flowers please make donation to St. Judes Cancer. ARTHUR B. BACA SEPTEMBER 22, 1944 JULY 12, 2013

The family of Arthur B. Baca would like to thank and express their sincere gratitude to everyone who were with us during this very difficult time of his illness and passing. A rosary will be held on Thursday July 18, 2013 at 7:30 p.m. at St. Annes Catholic Church.

JOSE ABDON VAROZ The last of the Varoz legacy was called home by our Lord at the age of 92; he passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family on July 15, 2013 following a brief illness. Jose was born February 17, 1921 in El Rito, New Mexico. He was preceded in death by his loving wife, Eloisa, of 70 years; and his daughter, Loretta; his parents, Belarmino & Reynalda Varoz; his siblings: Benigno (Carolina), Amarante (Magdalena), Aniceto, Larry (Ernestine), Max (Mary), Roman (Bernie) and an infant sister. He is survived by his seven children: Cynthia (Edward), Philip (Peggy), Gloria (Jack), Martha (Mark), Agnes, Judy (Steve), Joey (Stephanie); eighteen grandchildren and seventeen great grandchildren. Sisters-in-law: Romie Oselio, Cleo Martinez, Cloide Trujillo; and many nephews, nieces and extended family. Jose was employed at the Los Alamos National Laboratory for 39 years. He began his working life at an early age learning barbering skills at the Northern New Mexico Normal School in El Rito. He continued barbering at the Center Barber Shop in Los Alamos and later the Zia Barber Shop in Santa Fe, owned by his dear friend, the late, Manuel Jaramillo. He also worked at the San Francisco ship yards during World War II. He had many hobbies which included, hunting, fishing, carpentry, gardening, farming, auto mechanics, retablo carving and wine making. He loved music, especially mariachis and loved to dance. Some of the highlights of his summers included harvesting choke cherries for his specialty choke cherry wine, gathering the family together for outings, such as picnics in Canjilon, camping and pinon picking. His grandchildren fondly remember the Folger’s coffee cans used for gathering pinon. In the winter he delighted his children by pulling their sleds in the snow behind his 1941 Chevy pickup. He loved challenging the neighborhood children at ping pong during the summer evenings on the ping pong table that he personally built for them. He was a devout Catholic and was very devoted to St. Joseph and the Blessed Mother, an active member of Santa Maria de la Paz Catholic Community, where he served as a Minister of Hospitality. He lived a faithful and devoted life and was a role model for all his family and anyone who knew him. He had a contagious smile, great sense of humor and dichos to share each time he spoke, as these were his lessons in life to his family. One of his favorites was "Que Bendicion de Dios". He will be greatly missed and fondly remembered for his warm heart. His children send him a loving farewell… "Que Vaya Con Dios Papa!" Please join the family to celebrate his life. A rosary will be recited at 9:30 AM, Friday July 19, 2013 and followed by a funeral Mass at 10:00 AM, at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church, 4020 Lomas Blvd, NE, Alb, NM.

COMMENTARY: RAMESH PONNURU

Immigration bill isn’t what U.S. needs

T

he Senate has passed an immigration bill, and now all the great and good are urging the Republican-led House to pass it, too. It should decline. That bill would substantially increase immigration into the United States, especially the number of lowskilled immigrants — something that Americans don’t want, that serves no pressing economic need and that will make assimilation harder. The bill’s guest-worker programs subvert civic ideals by creating a large class of people who work here but can’t be full participants in American life. Its provisions against illegal immigration are weak — the Congressional Budget Office’s most optimistic take suggests the bill would reduce future levels by only half — and there is reason to think they will be set aside as previous enforcement promises have been. The status quo, flawed as it is, is preferable to passing this bill. What would be better, though, would be for Congress to pass an alternative. Like the current bill, an alternative would include provisions to enforce the laws against illegal immigration. But it could differ in refusing to simply throw money at the border, and it could take the problem of people who come to the country legally and then overstay their visas more seriously. Also like the current bill, the alternative would include an amnesty for undocumented immigrants — but a less sweeping one, applying only to people whose illegal stay began while they were children and who have otherwise followed the law. This amnesty shares the assumption of the so-called Dream Act proposed in several recent Congresses: These people didn’t do anything wrong and have no other home. It would go further than the Dream Act, though, because it wouldn’t require young people to go to college or join the military to get permanentresidency rights. The path to

OUR VIEW

UNM should keep The Pit’s name

S citizenship for these young people should be more rapid than the one in the Senate bill, which stretches out the process for no purpose other than to be punitive. The danger of a more sweeping amnesty is that it would encourage new illegal entrants by signaling that they will eventually be legalized, too. Congress should therefore hold off on that step while making sure that enforcement is up and running — and that the political forces that are supportive of amnesty have an incentive to make enforcement work rather than subvert it. Limited amnesty would be a goodfaith gesture to show that the promise of future legalization isn’t merely words. An alternative should also take a different approach on legal immigration. It should encourage immigration by highly skilled individuals, especially scientists and engineers, for the sake of higher economic growth. It should at the same time cut back on immigration based on reuniting extended families, which is nice but shouldn’t be a national priority. In fact, we should stop reunit-

ing adult siblings altogether until we have brought in the backlog of spouses and children of legal residents. And, finally, the alternative shouldn’t include a guestworker program. We don’t need to import a helot class. Such a bill might have a better chance of being enacted. It would offer a better chance of enforcement actually taking place. Supporters of the current approach would have a better shot at getting the amnesty they want. And Silicon Valley would have a better chance of getting the high-tech workers it seeks. To make such an alternative a reality, opponents of the current Senate bill have to hold firm and keep anything like it from passing the House. Having then failed for a third time with this approach, supporters of the bill might be willing to try a new one. But opponents would have to do something else, too: Accept a limited amnesty now and a bigger one later. Some House Republicans would surely balk, thinking that any amnesty is a retreat from the rule of law and that there is no demand for such a package of

reforms in their districts. Other Republicans, though, oppose the Senate bill for different reasons. They don’t think that every illegal immigrant already here should be deported or have to live in fear of it; they just don’t want today’s amnesty to lead to tomorrow’s. They appreciate that bending on this issue could improve their image nationally, especially among Hispanics, and make it more likely that they will someday have a Republican Senate and president to work with; they’re just not willing to pass bad legislation for this political purpose. Polls suggest that the public favors tougher enforcement, is open to amnesty for some undocumented immigrants and opposes major increases in immigration. The public seems to me to have the right instincts on all these matters, and it can get what it wants if Congress writes a new bill.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Bag fee will hurt businesses and consumers

T

he bag fee is bad for business and consumers. Instead, the city should encourage businesses to provide incentives for consumers to use reusable bags. Smith’s provides a credit. I saved 20 cents a gallon in part because I bring my own bags. A bag fee will alter the way I shop. We pinch pennies and use coupons. If I bring three bags, I won’t buy more than I can fit. We will do more shopping outside of town. We reuse plastic bags for dog poop and trash can liners. Now I will need to buy plastic bags for this. Expect to see more trash flying out of cans on pick up day. Tourists buying a knickknack already have to pay a parking fee and now a bag fee. If the city charges for bags, it should be for the actual cost, which is less than 2 cents. There are laws against pricegouging. Al Rodriguez

ment that would be created by having the audit performed now, before remaining funds are reallocated. I voted for the bond issue even though it seemed a huge amount of debt to assume at one time. The results have been magnificent all over the city. I have been proud to take visitors around the city and find myself constantly pointing out the accomplishments of this project. The results of an audit will probably not be an A-plus-plus report — but citizens and city government can learn from the results and extend the pride of the project over to pride in its management. I urge the City Council to vote in favor of an audit of the project and in favor of releasing the results to the public when it’s completed.

Nightmare planning My wife and I are new residents of Santa Fe and we attended the International Folk Art Market on the opening Friday night in 2012. We bought a great deal of what was on offer and very much enjoyed the experience. Realizing the merchandise is bought rather quickly, we again bought opening night tickets and eagerly headed up to the market. We were immediately informed, although early (about 5:45 p.m.) that all the handicapped parking was full. (I have a handicapped pass, and when we bought the tickets we were informed that was all we needed to do was park in the handicapped parking.) We were advised to advance to the First Baptist Church parking lot to catch a shuttle bus. We joined a waiting group of 50-some-odd people and were told that they had been there waiting for at least 35 minutes. We went home. Clearly there was little planning. I can only suggest someone wake up the people in charge and correct this nightmare.

ome things should not be for sale. And that would include the name of The University of New Mexico’s famous basketball arena, The Pit. For $10 million to $15 million, though, UNM athletic officials are willing to sell the naming rights to an interested company or family. The new name would just roll off the tongue — just consider the possibilities. The Maloof Pit (New Mexico’s former basketball team-owning family). Or in case the Unsers want to go cross-sport, we could have The Unser Pit, which considering the family’s car racing fame, makes a sort of sense. There’s The Bueno Pit, Allsup’s at The Pit, or Blake’s Lot-A-Pit, all food-related names from famous New Mexico companies. Or, fans could go to Ted Turner’s Pit Stop (hey, the former Atlanta Braves owner is one of the biggest private landowners in New Mexico, after all). Those are just a few of the better-known New Mexico families and companies; we have no way of knowing who might actually be interested or willing to part with big bucks to help the UNM Lobos athletics program. Other Mountain West schools have sold naming rights, so UNM is not doing anything unusual. On the other hand, Fresno State and San Diego State never had The Pit, a name that became famous overnight in 1983. That’s when the underdog North Carolina State team won the NCAA national basketball championship in an upset televised live from — that’s right, The Pit. Such brand recognition is priceless. The money is needed, university officials say, to bring in $3 million a year to help pay off the recent $60 million renovation to the basketball facility. The university also is willing to sell naming rights to University Stadium, where the football program plays home games. That one doesn’t matter, frankly, because University Stadium is not a national brand. However, the football team does not have the luster of Lobos basketball, making the naming rights even harder to unload. Because even with its shine, Pit naming rights have been up for sale for four years, with no takers. That’s why the payback of the $60 million for The Pit renovation is running into challenges. Selling naming rights was part of the financial model to repay the loan. Without those dollars, loan costs are being passed along to fans. Last Friday afternoon (a time when all bad news is delivered) UNM announced a $1 ticket surcharge on Lobos men’s basketball season tickets and a $2 surcharge on single-game tickets. That extra money will go directly to pay off the debt. We doubt the cash infusion will stop the drive to sell The Pit’s naming rights. But we think university officials should reconsider. Rather than dilute UNM’s best national brand, the university should find a way to market its unique name — using what makes it special to raise money, rather than turning what sets it apart into just another corporate arena. Meanwhile, we trust that UNM President Robert Frank — who was not president when The Pit renovations began — will ask hard questions of the athletic department. It’s just a bad business practice to count on money you don’t have to pay back a loan. Students can’t keep paying higher fees to support athletics, and we’d just as soon not go to basketball games in The Place Formerly Known As The Pit.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: July 18, 1913: Taos — Governor W.C. McDonald and State Engineer James A. French, accompanied by their wives, arrived in Taos this morning from Glenwoody where they remained last night. The governor and his party were met on the road a few miles out and escorted into the old village of Taos by several automobiles and eight cowboys, four on each side of the governor’s auto to protect him against any possible attacks of Indians. The receiving committee of the cowboys touched the governor in a reminiscent manner — as he too once swung the lasso and was the Napoleon of the round-up. Just before noon, the procession was formed in the public plaza, led by a band of about 50 Taos Pueblo Indians in their war paint and all riding ponies. Next came the governor and his party in his automobile, followed by eight cowboys colorfully attired; then about a dozen automobiles and vehicles of all kinds. July 18, 1963: A Texan is searching for a vacant cliff dwelling, in an area where it rains once in a while, which could be fixed for modern living. Dick Everett, head of the New Mexico Tourist Division, said he was unable to fill the Austin man’s request. “As far as I know, we’re fresh out of available cliff dwellings,” Everett said. Kansas City, Mo. — The Rev. N.J. Ezekiel, head of the Lutheran Church of India, is puzzled by one aspect of American life. “With so much wealth in your country, with so much money to buy beautiful cloth,” he said at a church conference, “I’m surprised American girls and women wear their skirts so short.”

Braves win AABC Roberto Clemente Division Santa Fe beats Grants to advance to World Series By James Barron The New Mexican

The Santa Fe Braves were history makers over the weekend. The American Amateur Baseball Congress team wants to have a shot at repeating its feat next week. The Braves won the South Plains Region championship in the league’s 8 and under Roberto Clemente Division on Sunday in Grants, becoming

the first Santa Fe AABC team to win a dual-age regional division championship, according to Santa Fe AABC president Tommy Martinez. The Braves beat the host Grants Dodgers 10-9 on Sunday for the regional title as they went undefeated in the 10-team tournament. “The kids were in disbelief, and so was I,” said Carlos Garcia, Braves head coach. “Last year, we were a game away from going [to the regional tournament], but we lost in the city championship.” The championship allowed the team to advance to the Roberto Clem-

ente World Series in McDonough, Ga., from July 25-28. That is, if the team can raise enough money to cover travel expenses. The team intends to charter a bus and travel to Georgia, where it will be set up with hotel accommodations by the national AABC chapter. However, only a portion of the travel expenses are covered by the national and local chapters — $3,250 to be exact ($2,000 from Santa Fe AABC, $1,250 by AABC). That has left parents, players and coaches searching for ways to raise the rest of the funds — about $9,500 to

cover the rest of the charter bus — in a little more than a week. They are canvassing neighborhoods, hitting up businesses and even set up a website (www.gofundme.com/ SF-Braves-World-Series) to help with donations. Martinez has confidence that the team will raise enough money. “They are very organized,” Martinez said. “This team has come together very well, from Carlos and his coaches to the rest of the parents. They will push themselves to make sure this will happen.” Garcia, who has coached most of the players since entering the Roberto

Clemente Division when they were 5, says he has enjoyed teaching the game to the Braves and watching them mature over the past three seasons. “I don’t know how teachers do it,” Garcia said. “I’m patient and I keep telling them things over and over. You feel like you’re nagging them, but it’s for their own good. But we want to make it fun. We tell the [opposing] coaches the way we coach is: when they’re off the field, they’re little kids. When they’re on the field, they are baseball players.” The Braves are hoping they can also be history makers.

Hot topic: DH debate alive at 40 By Dave Campbell The Associated Press

I

t was a moment 40 years in the making for Paul Risso. The 60-year-old Los Lunas resident got the chance to pitch one inning for Raton in a Pecos League baseball game against Santa Fe at Fort Marcy Ballpark on Wednesday night. The right-hander pitched one scoreless inning before leaving the game. The Fuego, though, rallied from a 4-2 deficit in the ninth inning for a 5-4 win. After a 33-year hiatus from baseball, Risso starting playing in the Albuquerque Men’s Senior Baseball League seven years ago, and all

that work led up to a moment of redemption. “This is a 40-year dream come true,” Risso said. “I never thought I would have the opportunity to do this when I started playing seven years ago. I was on pins and needles the last two weeks.” Risso relieved Raton pitcher Drew Evans in the bottom of the sixth inning, and Fuego infielder Kyle Zimmerman was the first batter to go up against the senior. “I was just thinking, ‘Don’t hit it right back at him,’ ” Zimmerman said. “It’s an interesting situation to be in. You don’t run into it every day. I was mainly just trying to keep the same approach that I kept the whole game and I tried to treat it just like any other at-bat.”

Zimmerman singled off Risso, which was a relief because he said he would have caught some flack from his teammates if he didn’t get on base. “It’s one of those things that if you don’t [hit] then the guys start giving you a hard time,” Zimmerman said. The next three batters were not as lucky. Right fielder Bryson Sims sacrificed Zimmerman over to second base on his bunt, then shortstop Charlie Calamia hit a grounder back to Risso. Risso’s final victim, second baseman Marc Tarantolo, hit a deep ball that was caught in right field.

TOUR DE FRANCE

Leader Froome captures third stage victory By John Leicester

The Associated Press

CHORGES, France — Even when he expects to lose, Tour de France champion-in-the-making Chris Froome cannot help but win. He’s that strong and he’s making it look easy. On a day when the British rider was planning to save some energy for upcoming mountains, Froome still brushed aside the field and took his third stage win of this 100th Tour. Alberto Contador, Froome’s Spanish rival still trying to make a fight of this one-sided battle, gave his all in Wednesday’s Alpine time trial. His face contorted in a grimace of effort as he sprinted out of the saddle to the line, while spectators whipped up a thunderclap of noise by banging their

fists on the barriers. Froome, having set off behind Contador, sped in a few moments later. He, too, rode hard but looked more comfortable with his easy-on-the-eye pedaling style, perched on his saddle, legs pumping underneath him like pistons in an ocean liner’s engine room. Contador shook his head and shrugged his shoulders when television flashed that Froome beat his time by 9 seconds. This was another opportunity lost for Contador — 4 minutes, 34 seconds back in second place in the overall standings— to make victory for Froome in Paris on Sunday at least feel less inevitable. “Froome is in impressive shape,” was the understated assessment of the 2007 and 2009 winner who was stripped of his

The designated hitter turned 40 this year. Fittingly, it’s having sort of a midlife crisis. Never before has the imbalance between the American and National Leagues regarding Rule 6.10 been more of a potential problem. The designated hitter rule has been controversial from Day 1. It’s been criticized and even confusing since it was born. So it’s only natural that Major League Baseball’s oncebold experiment will continue to exist unevenly and indefinitely. The DH debate won’t die. Bud Selig “A little controversy between the leagues is really not all bad,” said Bud Selig, MLB commissioner, before Tuesday’s AllStar Game in New York. Selig cast one of the votes for using the designated hitter in AL games starting in 1973, when he owned the Milwaukee Brewers, then an AL franchise. He acknowledged this week that further geographic changes to divisions could force MLB to either scrap the DH altogether or install it for the NL, but that’s a future possibility and not an imminent plan. When Houston switched to the AL West this year to even out the leagues at 15 teams each, daily interleague games became a necessity of the schedule. “At the moment,” Selig said, “we are not going to change it.” Perhaps the most polarizing of this sport’s many quirks and imperfections, the designated hitter came to be when AL teams sought to boost their then-lagging product. The decision was made during a time when the two leagues were far less integrated than now. The gimmick not only worked to increase scoring and attendance but created a way for some of the game’s greatest hitters to extend their careers — and make a lot more money. Orlando Cepeda even credited the rule for boosting his Hall of Fame credentials, after Boston signed him for the 1973 season following a long career with San Francisco. “That was one of the best years, because I was playing on one leg and I hit .289,” Cepeda said earlier this season. “And I hit four doubles in one

THISDATE DATE ONON THIS July 18 1975 — The trial of Dave Forbes, the first pro athlete to be indicted for a crime committed during play, ends in a hung jury. Forbes, of the Boston Bruins, was indicted for excessive force used on an opponent. Forbes’ victim was Henry Boucha in a game on January 4 against the North Stars at Minnesota. The prosecution decides not to seek a retrial. 1987 — New York’s Don Mattingly ties Dale Long’s 31-year-old major league record when he homers for the eighth consecutive game in the Yankees’ 7-2 loss to the Texas Rangers. 1993 — Greg Norman shoots a 64 on the final day to set a record with a 13-under 267 and wins the British Open. Norman wins by two strokes over defending champion Nick Faldo. 1995 — Britain’s Jonathan Edwards breaks the 10-year-old world triple jump record, leaping 59 feet in the Salamanca Provincial meet. Edwards tops the previous mark of 58-111/2 set in 1985 by Willie Banks of the United States. 1996 — Shaquille O’Neal signs a sevenyear, $121 million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers’ ticket price for the cheapest seats is increased from $9.50 to $21. 1999 — Jean Van de Velde’s triple bogey on the 72nd hole sets the stage for Paul Lawrie to become the first Scotsman to win the British Open in his native land since Tommy Armour in 1931.

Debate: Ortiz is making $14M

B-3

Northern New Mexico

SCOREBOARD Local results and schedules Today on TV Schedule subject to change and/or blackouts. All times local.

Continued from Page B-1 game. Both my knees were hurting, and I was designated hitter of the year.” Designated hitters last year had the second-highest average salary by position at $8.1 million, behind first basemen at $8.6 million. That’s the main reason why eliminating the DH to bring the AL back on line with the NL is almost unfathomable. Boston’s David Ortiz, who recently passed Harold Baines on the career list for hits by a designated hitter, is making $14 million this year at age 37. The designated hitter has also helped teams keep their David Ortiz best players in the lineup while giving them some type of rest. Minnesota All-Star catcher Joe Mauer is a prime example. When he needs a break from crouching behind the plate, manager Ron Garden can keep his potent bat in the lineup at DH. “I get a lot of questions about the DH, how we use it and all that stuff, but basically the way I see it is I’d rather see David Ortiz hit than some pitcher,” Mauer said, intending no offense to his own teammates. “So we’ll see. It is what it is right now.” Most of Mauer’s AL peers predictably express support for the DH’s existence, even if a lot of them would rather play a position than sit around between at-bats. The power of the players’ union, protective of this lucrative and prominent job, is another undeniable force for the DH. And despite the complaints from dads with sleepy kids at long games, fans usually enjoy seeing runs cross the plate. The cumulative AL batting average has beaten the NL’s mark in each of the first 40 seasons of the DH. The last time the NL hit above .270 was 1939. The AL has 11 seasons of .270-plus batting during the DH era. There are purists who have a hard time forgiving MLB for the installing the DH, though. Remember the movie Bull Durham, when Kevin Costner’s character Crash Davis launches his crude rant about the qualities and superficialities of life. “I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter,” he said. The NL guys, naturally, tout the purity of the no-DH game and the additional substitution strategy it provides. Many pitchers simply find it fun to try to hit — even if it means sometimes looking silly swinging meekly at strike three. Yes, DH conflicts keep on coming — even in spring training. The home team is supposed to decide whether or not to use it and sometimes managers disagree. Cincinnati’s Dusty Baker wanted to use Shin-Soo Choo in that role for an exhibition game in March as a precaution for his tight right quadriceps, but Arizona’s Kirk Gibson insisted on keeping the pitcher in the lineup so he could let starter Brandon McCarthy take some swings. Baker and Gibson argued before the game about it at home plate. Gibson prevailed because the Diamondbacks were the host team. When the games count, of course, the DH is used in AL ballparks and pitchers bat in NL venues. This year, that will force Detroit manager Jim Leyland to leave designated hitter Victor Martinez out of the lineup at Miami on the final weekend of the regular season while the other teams in the league use their DH as usual. If the AL Central or wildcard races are still unsettled then, that’s the kind of potentially pennant-altering wrinkle that could someday prompt a change.

James wins 3 ESPYs By Beth Harris

The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — LeBron James padded his trophy collection, receiving three at the ESPY Awards, including male athlete of the year for helping the Miami Heat win a second straight NBA championship. James also won in the championship performance and NBA player categories, completing a sweep of the three awards he won last year. He shared in the best team award Wednesday night. “We went through so much adversity,” teammate Ray Allen said. “We did everything we could to fight, scratch and claw to put ourselves in that moment.” James beat out Miguel Cabrera of the Detroit Tigers, Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson and Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps for male athlete honors. James mentioned his fellow nominees, then told them, “This is for all four of us, man, but I’m just keeping it at my house.” Serena Williams won two awards, including female athlete of the year. She defeated a pair of Olympians, gymnast Gabby Douglas and swimmer Missy Franklin, and former Baylor basketball star Brittney Griner. Williams didn’t attend because she’s playing a tournament in Sweden. Peterson and Phelps also won two awards each. Jon Hamm, the star of AMC’s Mad Men and a noted St. Louis Cardinals fan, hosted the 21st annual show. He joked it was “the world’s largest gathering of people wearing sunglasses indoors” as the cameras caught James and NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick behind shades.

Hamm got in some digs about former Los Angeles Lakers center Dwight Howard. “We thought it would be nice to honor Dwight Howard with his greatest moments with the Lakers,” Hamm said as no film clips appeared on the screen behind him while the crowd laughed. Hamm noted the talk about possible suspensions resulting from baseball’s latest drug investigation has included Alex Rodriguez. “That’s OK, Yankee fans are used to him not showing up for the second half of the season,”he joked. Quarterback Johnny Manziel of Texas A&M won male college athlete honors after flying in earlier from Hoover, Ala., where he attended SEC media day. Griner, who now plays for the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury, won female college athlete. Peterson won trophies for NFL player and best comeback, while Cabrera won as best MLB player. Williams won female tennis player, giving her eight career ESPYs. Phelps also claimed best male Olympian, while teenage swimming sensation Missy Franklin won best female Olympian. Kaepernick of the San Francisco 49ers won as breakthrough athlete. Rick Pitino won as coach-manager for guiding the Louisville Cardinals to a national basketball championship. The best game was Game 6 of the NBA Finals between the Heat and San Antonio Spurs. The award for best upset went to Florida Gulf Coast’s men’s basketball team, a No. 15 seed that upset No. 2 seed Georgetown in the NCAA Tournament.

Aging: Family in attendance Continued from Page B-1 Risso’s first professional inning was over after just nine pitches. “The most important thing for me was to get in a groove and throw strikes,” Risso said. “My plan was to make them hit the ball and get it in play. All I threw were nine fastballs and it worked.” Risso’s performance even made an impression on the opposing team. “To be able to get on a mound and to be able to throw a competitive ball at the plate at that age is pretty unbelievable,” Zimmerman said. “I don’t think I’ve seen another guy that can do that.” Family members traveled all the way from Lodi, Calif., and they made their presence known to Risso. “I could hear my family and friends,” Risso said. “It was so great to hear that. I’ve been waiting a lifetime for this to happen.” There was one family member that wasn’t present however, and his presence would have meant a lot to Risso. Risso’s father, Albert, played one year for

the Reno Silver Sox of the Sunset League in 1949. The team was affiliated with the New York Giants. Albert passed away 30 years ago. “I wish my dad could have been around to see it,” Risso said. “This had to do a lot with him.” For now, Risso is going to enjoy the moment that he never thought would happen after a shoulder injury dashed his professional hopes so many years ago. “I can tell you that I will not sleep [Wednesday night],” Risso said. Not to be outdone by Risso’s feats, Calamia hit a walk-off double in the bottom of the ninth to give the Fuego the victory and keep their playoff hopes alive. They moved to within four games of the Trinidad Triggers, who lost 11-6 to the Alpine Cowboys, for second place in the North Division with seven games left. “You don’t get to be in a walk-off situation like that very often and to come away with the win is the biggest adrenaline rush that there is,” Zimmerman said.

2010 victory for a failed doping test. The last Tour champion — now ex-champion — to carry as many stage wins as Froome to Paris was Lance Armstrong. That was in 2004, when Armstrong won five stages and declared he’d be giving “no gifts” to his rivals. That is all just a bad memory now. A union that represents about 600 professional riders from seven European nations supported Froome on Wednesday against what it called “unjustified allegations of doping.” “It’s not fair to blame someone without evidence against him,” Gianni Bugno, president of the Association of Professional Riders, said in a statement. “We demand more respect for Chris and for all the riders.” In four days, as long as he gets through the Alps, Froome will be able to sip champagne in the saddle on the final ride to the Champs-Elysees, unusually staged in the evening this year. That would make it two victories in a row for Britain and for Team Sky, after Bradley Wiggins’ win last year. With wins in the Pyrenees and on Mont Ventoux, Froome has shown excellence going uphill. It would be a big surprise if he wilted on the three days of Alpine climbs that start on Thursday with a double ascent to the ski station of L’Alpe d’Huez, with its 21 hairpins bends to the top. Done twice, that’s 42 bends packed with spectators to be negotiated. It promises to be frenzied and spectacular — a dramatic crescendo for what already has been a highlightrich Tour. But there are questions about how comfortable

Froome is speeding downhill. He has voiced concern about a hairy descent without safety barriers that Alberto the pack tackContador les between the first and second ascents to L’Alpe d’Huez. He appealed to race organizers to cancel the Col de Sarenne descent and make the pack ride just once to L’Alpe d’Huez if it rains Thursday. “Just in terms of the safety of the riders, I think that has to come first,” Froome said. That eventuality was ruled out by Jean-Francois Pescheux, the event director. “This is the Tour de France. Rain hasn’t ever stopped the Tour de France. It would have to really be a natural catastrophe that blocked the road or something like that,” he said. “Rain isn’t the enemy of the cyclist — it’s part of the sport!” It was certainly part of Wednesday’s time trial, but not as much as initially feared. While it did rain on parts of the course, the forecast storms hit only after Stage 17 finished. Froome covered the 20 miles in 51 minutes, 33.66 seconds. “I went into [Wednesday] thinking: ‘OK, I’m going to give this a really good shot, but I’m not going to empty myself,’ ” Froome said. “I really expected to lose at least 30 seconds to a minute to some of the best riders.” Contador’s gutsy ride bumped him up from third to second in the overall standings, although he is more than four minutes back from Froome. “When you are second, it’s easier to get to first place,” Contador said hopefully. “But it’s true that he is very strong.”

Federer rallies to advance at German Championships The Associated Press

HAMBURG, Germany — Roger Federer rallied to beat Daniel Brands 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 Wednesday at the German Tennis Championships in his first match since his second-round loss at Wimbledon last month. Using a bigger racket for the first time, Federer served three aces in the opening game but still lost his serve and ultimately the set to the German. The former No. 1 broke once in the second set and twice in the decider to reach the third round. The 17-time major champion is a four-time winner in Hamburg, the city

where he won his first title in 2002 to break into the top 10. Federer will play qualifier Jan Hajek, who beat Ernests Gulbis 6-4, 2-6, 6-4. Tommy Haas outlasted qualifier Blaz Roger Kavcic 6-1, 4-6, 6-4 to Federer advance to Round 3. Jerzy Janowicz prevailed 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (4) over Robin Haase. Defending champion Juan Monaco beat Gael Monfils 6-4, 6-4. Feliciano Lopez, Fabio Fognini and Fernando Verdasco advanced.

SWEDISH OPEN In Bastad, Sweden, Lourdes Dominguez Lino, No. 8 Johanna Larsson, Klara Zakopalova and Virginie Razzano reached the quarterfinals. Dominguez Lino rallied past Teliana Pereira 3-6, 6-4, 6-3, and Larsson defeated Nina Bratchikova 6-2, 6-3 at the clay-court tournament. Zakopalova broke serve five times to beat Arantxa Parra Santonja 6-3, 6-1, and Razzano came from behind to down Alexandra Dulgheru 3-6, 6-0, 6-4. Also, second-seeded Simona Halep advanced to the second round by beating Rebecca Peterson 6-4, 6-0. Halep has surged in the rankings after winning three WTA titles.

GASTEIN LADIES In Bad Gastein, Austria, top-seeded Mona Barthel pulled out with a shoulder injury while trailing 6-2, 4-3 to the 725th-ranked Lisa-Maria Moser in the second round. Barthel, who was looking to reach her fourth quarterfinal of the season and first since winning in Paris in February, took over the top seeding after defending champion Alize Cornet pulled out with a shoulder injury. In the quarterfinals, Moser will play Andrea Hlavackova, who rallied to beat Viktorija Golubic 5-7, 6-1, 6-0.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Manziel draws a crowd Heisman winner answers questions at SEC Media Days

By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press

GULLANE, Scotland — The practice round schedule posted each day at Muirfield is not the only way to determine how players are getting ready for the British Open. Johnson Wagner’s name was on the tee sheet at St. Andrews over the weekend. Geoff Ogilvy could be found on the other side of the country, on links courses like Turnberry, Royal Troon and Western Gailes. Justin Rose was at North Berwick. So were Bubba Watson and Luke Donald, who got in plenty of golf along the Firth of Forth the week before the British Open. It’s not unusual for players to take off from their regular tours a week before a major to prepare. What’s different about the British Open — isn’t everything? — is that preparations aren’t limited to the course they will be playing. “You can prepare for the U.S. Open on the range,” Ogilvy said Wednesday. “But you can only prepare for The Open on the course. And it doesn’t necessarily have to be the course you’re playing. The seaside courses here, they’re the only courses with turf like this, with sand like this. There’s something different about the seaside wind in Scotland. … You can fly to Shanghai or Abu Dhabi and work on what you need at home. But you can’t work on what you need at home until you get here.” Tiger Woods, a three-time Open champion, arrived Sunday morning and has played nine holes a day. There was a time he would leave home a week early and head to Ireland with Mark O’Meara and David Duval, both former Open champions, and play the links courses there. Woods loves to recall his first experience with links golf in 1995 as the U.S. Amateur champion. He played the Scottish Open at Carnoustie, and then drove down the North Sea shoreline to St. Andrews for the British Open. “I absolutely fell in love with it, to be able to dink a 5-iron from 150 yards and bump it on the ground, or vice versa — have 260 out and hit a 4-iron and it bounces over the green. That, to me, is pretty neat. Because we play everywhere around the world — an airborne game where you have to hit the ball straight up in the air and make it stop. Here it’s different. A draw will go one distance, a fade will go another, and they’re so dramatic. And I just absolutely love it.” True, adjusting to links golf can just as easily take place at Muirfield, where

face second-seeded Annika Beck or Mandy Minella. 2007 finalist Yvonne Meusburger routed Jasmina Tinjic 6-0, 6-0. Meusburger conceded only three points on serve.

a few sprinklers in the evening to keep it from getting overcooked. “I think it’s no exaggeration to say that in my time at the R&A with direct involvement in The Open Championship, which goes back to 2000, factors have combined this year to make this the best course set up we’ve ever had in that period,” said Peter Dawson, R&A chief executive. “The course is just as we want it. It’s hard. It’s fast. It’s in wonderful condition. The rough is just right. I think the players are enjoying it.” It all starts to unfold Thursday morning when Peter Senior of Australia hits the opening tee shot. Among the early starters are Els, Rose and Brandt Snedeker in one group, with Phil Mickelson, Rory McIlroy and Hideki Matsuyama a few groups behind. The afternoon groups include Woods, Graeme McDowell and Louis Oosthuizen, along with Masters champion Adam Scott, Donald and Matt Kuchar. Tom Watson won at Muirfield in 1980 by four shots over Lee Trevino, which was a rarity in one respect. That was the only Open in the last six times at Muirfield that golf’s oldest championship was decided by more than one shot. Els won in a record fourman playoff the last time in 2002. Muirfield is seen as a thorough examination that requires solid contact in any weather, which might explain why only the best players seem to win

the British Open starts Thursday. Defending champion Ernie Els came down from Castle Stuart and has stayed at Muirfield, wrapping up his final practice round Wednesday just after 6 p.m. But there are no tricks at Muirfield. There are hardly any blind shots. Most of the bunkers are in plain view from the tee. That’s one of the reasons that Muirfield is a favorite of so many players, who use words like “fair” and “honest test,” which aren’t always heard on other links courses. “I think of all the Open venues, it’s probably one of the least quirky ones,” Donald said Wednesday. “It’s quite straightforward. Obviously with the weather conditions, it’s playing firm and fast. It’s going to be about controlling your golf ball this week. And the weather looks good. The course is set up just the way the R&A would like it. It’s bouncy. It’s a little bit of a breeze out there. Firm conditions are a good protector of the golf course, and we certainly have that this week.” The forecast is dry for the week, with perhaps some mist on the weekend. Even though officials had the course just the way they wanted it early in the week, they have turned on

here — Els, Nick Faldo twice, Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, Walter Hagen, Trevino. Snedeker tied the 36-hole record at the British Open last year at 130 — the same score Faldo had at Muirfield in 1992 — and eventually tied for third. That was at Royal Lytham & St. Annes, and he sounds like he loves Muirfield even more. “There are defined areas where you need to hit it. How you get the ball in that defined area is up to you,” Snedeker said. “It’s a great mix of holes. I chart what I hit in the practice round, and I’ve hit every club in the bag every day. You’re hitting driver on some holes. You’re hitting 5-iron off the tee on some holes. It’s just a really cool mix. And depending on the wind, they can all play completely differently. “I think it’s a great test,” he said. “There’s no letup out there whatsoever.” What happens from here is difficult to project. Woods is trying to end a zero-for-16 drought in the majors. Rose is trying to become only the seventh player to win the U.S. Open and British Open in the same year. Els believes he has a chance to win again, which would put him in rare company — Old Tom Morris in 1872 is the only other player in his 40s to successfully defend his title in a major. “There’s so much to look forward to the way everything has shaped up for this Open Championship,” Scott said. “Very exciting week ahead.”

HOOVER, Ala. — Johnny Manziel strode into Southeastern Conference Media Days and was swarmed by hundreds of reporters and dozens of television cameras. He shook some hands and the cameras flashed as he settled into his seat, the star of the SEC’s latest must-see TV show. If the Texas A&M quarterback was troubled by all the attention, he didn’t show it. Manziel Johnny answered Manziel every question thrown his way during the 30-minute Q&A, some were even about football. He said he largely enjoys the spotlight that comes with winning the Heisman Trophy — even if it sometimes includes unsavory headlines. “This is just another day,” Manziel said with a grin. The 20-year-old sophomore spent most of his three-hour stay at the Wynfrey Hotel, bouncing from one interview session to another. He mostly talked about an eventful offseason that has frequently made him a trending topic. “I don’t feel like I’ve done anything that’s catastrophic,” Manziel said. “Of course, I’ve made my mistakes. It’s time to grow up.” The most recent misstep came last weekend at the Manning Passing Academy. Manziel was one of many college QB counselors at the camp for high school prospects run by Archie, Peyton and Eli Manning in Louisiana, but he left before it was over. He says he missed activities because he “overslept,” and his absence had nothing to do with being out the night before. “I was not asked to leave. It was a mutual decision,” Manziel said. He said that while there were social events every night with the Mannings, he did not miss his meetings because of too much partying. “The speculation of me being too hung over and that’s the reason I missed the meetings is absolutely incorrect,” he said. He said he was disappointed he missed camp activities, but that there were “no hard feelings” between him and the Mannings. “My offseason, all the stuff’s that’s gone on will have no effect on this season,” Manziel said. “I’m ready to stop. No more talk after this. Let’s play football.” Manziel is the first freshman to win the Heisman and undeniably a unique talent on the field. He led Texas A&M to an 11-2 record, including a 6-2 mark in its first Southeastern Conference season. Manziel finished with 3,706 yards and 26 touchdowns passing and 1,410 yards and 21 TDs on the ground.

Then she’ll do the same in the front. At that point, she can push and pull all she wants and rotate the tires diagon a l l y, a n d t h e c a r s h o u l d n ’ t go anywhere.

READY FOR unconditional love? Meet Bela, a 3-year-old spayed female Belgian Malinios mix or possibly full Malinios. She has energy to spare, and will need an involved handler or family to keep her mind and body active. She is friendly, likes people and gets along with other dogs, but can be a little barky when meeting new dogs for the first time. Bela is crate- and house-trained and knows how to use a dog door. She is currently in foster care in a multi-dog home. This girl needs a job, so nose work or agility is right up her alley. If you’re interested in Bela, call Emily, the Santa Fe Animal Shelter’s Behavior and Training leader, at 983-4309 ext. 280.

Dear Tom and Ray:

A m I p utt i n g my 24 -ye a r - o l d daughter in harm’s way by teaching her to rotate the tires and change the oil on her car? She is strong, capable and willing. I would take it very hard if anything were to happen to her as a result o f t h i s e n d e a v o r. - - J o e

RAY: S o w h i l e t h e r e i s s o m e risk associated with car rep a i r, t h e j o b s y o u ’ v e s e l e c t e d for her are relatively lowr i s k , i f d o n e c o r r e c t l y. TOM: S o t h a t m e a n s w h e n rotating the tires, you don’t want her using the jack that c o m e s w i t h t h e c a r. T h o s e a r e n o t o r i o u s l y f l i m s y, i n o u r opinion, and really only for use in roadside emergencies -- if that. RAY: S o i f s h e ’ s g o i n g t o be yanking wheels off a 3 , 0 0 0 - p o u n d c a r, y o u w a n t to buy her a real, hydraulic floor jack and a set of four jack stands.

RAY: W h e n s h e c h a n g e s t h e oil, you’ll show her how to unscrew the drain plug and filter without pouring hot oil down her arm and giving herself a tattoo in the shape of the River Nile. TOM: B u t t h e g r e a t e s t d a n ger she’ll face is the risk of having a car fall off its jack. So that should be the focus of your paternal risk-management prog ram, Joe. But with some reasonable care, and the right tools, she’ll impress the heck out of all the boys (hope that doesn’t cause you t o r e c o n s i d e r, J o e ) .

January

28,

City of Bayard Bayard, Grant County, New Mexico Project Number : 2724-DW The New Mexico Finance Authority (NMFA) has conducted a review of the proposed City of Bayard (City) infrastructure project in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the New Mexico State Environmental Review Process (SERP) for the Drinking Water State Revolving Loan Fund (DWSRLF). The procedure is based on the implementation regulations for NEPA (40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] Parts 6, 25, 35, and 1500) as followed by the Environmental Protection Agency, USDA Rural Utility Service Bulletin 1794A-602 and State regulations 20.7.7 NMAC. NMFA has determined that this project is eligible for a Categorical Exclusion (CE). Accordingly, the project is exempted from further substantive environmental review requirements under 40 CFR Part 6.107(d)(1) and 6.505(b)(1). Following is a description of the proposed action and a statement of how the action meets the criteria for a CE. Project Description and Background: The City has applied for a drinking water loan in order to upgrade the existing manual-read meters with an automatic water reading sys-

g y tem. The project will consist of the following components: *replacing all existing water meters with new meters that have encoder registers; *installing transmitter stations (data collector units); *purchasing and installing a network control computer and software; *purchasing supplies for the installation of equipment and transmitters; and *providing for system training and installation (contractor) costs for the water meters and transmitters.

6.505.

NMFA has performed a review of the application materials and has determined that the proposed action fits within the category of actions described by the CE and that no extraordinary circumstances are involved. The proposed action fits within a category of actions which are solely directed toward minor rehabilitation of existing facilities, functional replacement of equipment, or towards the construction of new ancillary facilities adjacent or attached to existing The proposed project facilities. would reduce the number of man-hours Specifically, the prorequired to collect, posed action includes input, and verify wa- the replacement of ter meter readings.
