Gonzales blogs about growing up gay Former leader of state Dems comes out ahead of decision on mayoral run

Javier Gonzales

By David J. Salazar The New Mexican

Former state Democratic Party chairman and prospective Santa Fe mayoral candidate Javier Gonzales posted in a blog Wednesday that he is gay.

Gonzales came out on the website Familia es Familia,

which works to “build support among Latino communities for acceptance of gay and lesbian family members,” the site says.

“Anyone who’s really gone through what I have understands that this is a process, and it’s something that’s an important process to go through,” Gonzales said in an interview

Santa Fe Police Chief Ray Rael speaks Wednesday about an officer’s allegations of sexual assault by another officer in the department.

Wednesday afternoon. “It really wasn’t just an announcement, it was a moment to share this process that I’ve experienced.”

In the blog post, Gonzales details growing up in Santa Fe and the struggle that came with accepting his sexual orientation.

Attorney General Gary King announced in June that he would not issue an opinion on whether same-sex marriage is legal in New Mexico.

Wednesday, he said the action in Doña Ana County makes it more urgent for the courts to expedite lawsuits filed by several same-sex couples who have been denied marriage licenses.

ttorney General Gary King said even though he has cautioned county clerks not to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples until a court rules on the matter, he will not intervene in Las Cruces, where the Doña Ana County clerk began issuing licenses Wednesday to gay couples.

King, in a telephone interview, noted that he has filed briefs in a pending lawsuit, expressing the belief that the state’s prohibition against same-sex marriage is unconstitutional.

It would be hard to argue the other way in an action against Doña Ana County Clerk Lynn Ellins, he said.

A 31-year-old female patrol officer who has been with the city police department has accused a veteran officer of sexual assault, Santa Fe police and the woman’s lawyer said Wednesday.

Police Chief Ray Rael acknowledged that the woman had reported the incident to department supervisors a week and a half to two weeks ago, and that the case has been turned over to New Mexico State Police and to the city department’s Internal Affairs Office for investigations.

Rael declined to identify the accused officer, who has been with the department since 1999, but said the officer has been put on paid administrative leave. The officer making the charge, however, is still working with the department.

A lawyer for the victim said he is seeking paid administrative leave for his client, who has been with the department for less than two years.

State police spokesman Emmanuel Gutierrez confirmed the agency “picked up” the case two weeks ago, but no charges have been filed.

“It’s still an active investigation and being worked by our agents,” Gutierrez said. “Upon completion of the report, it will be forwarded to the District Attorney’s Office for final review and disposition. This is all the information that can be

NATION&WORLD ACT: Third of high school grads are not college ready

STONY HILL FARMER’S MARKET/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

In brief

Soldier rests case without testifying

FORT HOOD, Texas — The soldier on trial for the deadly 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood refused to put up a fight on Wednesday, resting his case without calling a single witness or testifying in his own defense.

Maj. Nidal Hasan could face the death penalty if convicted for the attack that killed 13 people and wounded more than 30 others at the Texas military base. But when given the chance to rebut prosecutors’ lengthy case — which included nearly 90 witnesses and hundreds of pieces of evidence — the Army psychiatrist declined.

About five minutes after court began Wednesday, a day after prosecutors rested their case, the judge asked Hasan how he wanted to proceed. He answered: “The defense rests.”

School gunman was off medication LITHONIA, Ga. — Emergency dispatchers were told that the suspect in a shooting and standoff at a suburban Atlanta school was off his medication and he thought he should have gone to a mental hospital instead of a school.

Michael Brandon Hill relayed messages to DeKalb County emergency dispatchers through a bookkeeper at McNair Learning Academy in Decatur, Ga. after shooting at police Tuesday afternoon.

Police said Hill was carrying nearly 500 rounds and no one was injured.

Facebook wants the world online NEW YORK — Food, water and the Internet?

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg wants to get all of the world’s 7 billion people online through a partnership with some of the largest mobile technology companies.

He says the Web is an essential part of life, and everyone deserves to be connected, whether they live in Norway, Nicaragua or Namibia.

“The Internet not only connects us to our friends, families and communities, but it is also the foundation of the global knowledge economy,” Zuckerberg wrote in a paper posted to his Facebook page late Tuesday. The title asks “Is Connectivity A Human Right?”

The April 30, 1973, calls with Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush were captured on a secret recording system that Nixon used to tape 3,700 hours of conversations between February 1971 and July 1973.

The final chronological installment of those tapes — 340 hours — were made public by the National Archives and Records Administration, along with more than 140,000 pages of text documents.

Seven hundred hours remain sealed for national security and privacy reasons.

heights when he masterminded the Beatles’ historic concerts at Shea Stadium and Carnegie Hall, died Wednesday at age 95.

Bernstein’s daughter, Casey Deutsch, said he died in his sleep at a hospital. She cited no illness and said he died of natural causes.

For decades, Bernstein excelled like few others at being everywhere and knowing everybody.

Bernstein also had a studious side that led to his biggest break.

He took a course on Western civilization at the New School for Social Research that required students to read a British newspaper once a week.

“This was the right time to be reading an English newspaper,” he explained in a 2001 interview with the music publication NY Rock Confidential. “So here I am reading little stories about this group from Liverpool that is causing a lot of ‘hysteria.’ By the end of the course, I was so Beatle-ized by what I read, even though I did not hear a note, I said, ‘gotta get ’em.’ ”

Tentative deal in suit against mayor SAN DIEGO, Calif. — City Attorney Jan Goldsmith said a proposed resolution was reached and it will be presented to the City Council during closed session Friday. No details were released, and it was unclear whether a resignation was part of the deal.

The 70-year-old former congressman has been besieged by allegations from at least 17 women, and whether he’ll be able to hang onto his job is in limbo.

Carl Luna, a political science professor at Mesa College, said Filner might still be fighting to stay in office or he might be trying to negotiate a deal that would limit his financial liability in the lawsuit if he agrees to resign.

“Oddly enough the person holding the most cards is Bob Filner, because he’s the one in position to end all this,” Luna said.

GRASS ROOTS SUPPORT

By Philip Elliott

WASHINGTON — Almost a third of this year’s high school graduates who took the ACT tests are not prepared for college-level writing, biology, algebra or social science classes, according to data the testing company released Wednesday.

The company’s annual report also found a gap between students’ interests now and projected job opportunities when they graduate, adding to the dire outlook for the class of 2013.

“The readiness of students leaves a lot to be desired,” said Jon Erickson, president of the Iowa-based company’s education division.

The ACT reported that 31 percent of all high school graduates tested were not ready for any college coursework requiring English, science, math or reading skills. The other 69 percent of test takers met at least one of the four subject-area standards.

Just a quarter of this year’s high school graduates cleared the bar in all four subjects, demonstrating the skills they’ll need for college or a career, according to company data.

The numbers are even worse for black high school graduates: Only 5 percent were deemed fully ready for life after high school.

The report’s findings suggest that many students will struggle when they arrive on campus or they’ll be forced to take remedial courses — often without earning credits — to catch their peers.

The data reveal a downturn in overall student scores since 2009.

Company officials attribute the slide to updated standards and more students taking the exams — including many with no intention of attending two- or four-year colleges.

In terms of careers, the report found a chasm between what students want to study and where they might find jobs down the road.

For instance, the government estimates that 17 percent of job openings in 2020 will be in education fields but only 6 percent of test takers told ACT they wanted a job there. Computer and information technologies will account for 11 percent of openings in 2020, but only 2 percent of students indicated they want a career in that industry.

The ACT report is based on the 54 percent of high school graduates this year who took the exams.

Roughly the same percentage took the SAT — the other major college entrance exam — and many students took both tests. Those who took only the SAT were not included in the report.

Under ACT’s definition, a young adult is ready to start college or trade school if he or she has the knowledge to succeed without taking remedial courses. Students from all racial backgrounds did best in English and worst in science.

Mubarak to be released from prison Autocrat to be placed under house arrest

By Sarah El Deeb

The Assocaited Press

CAIRO — Egypt’s prime minister ordered Wednesday that deposed autocrat Hosni Mubarak be placed under house arrest after he’s released from prison following more than two years in detention.

The announcement came hours after a court ordered Mubarak be released for the first time since he was first detained in April 2011, a move threatening to further stoke tension in a deeply divided Egypt. Many feared Mubarak’s release Hosni would amplify Islamist allegations Mubarak that last month’s military coup was a step toward restoring the old regime.

Prime Minister Hazem el-Beblawi said in a statement that he ordered Mubarak be put under house arrest as part of the emergency measures put in place this month. The decision appeared designed to ease some of the criticism over Mubarak being freed from prison and ensure he appears in court next week for a separate trial.

Prison officials said Mubarak may be released as early as Thursday. It is not clear where Mubarak will be held under house arrest, whether in one of his residences or in a hospital considering his frail health. Since his ouster, Mubarak’s supporters have released conflicting details about his health, including that the 85 year old suffered a stroke, a heart attack and at times went into a coma.

The order for Mubarak’s release followed an appeal by his lawyers in one of his corruption cases. He is also on trial on charges of complicity in the killing of protesters in the 2011 uprising against him that could put him back behind bars. He faces investigation into at least two other corruption cases as well.

The prospect of Mubarak being freed, even if only temporarily, would feed into the larger crisis bedeviling Egypt: the violent fallout from the July 3 coup that unseated President Mohammed Morsi, an Islamist who became Egypt’s first freely elected president following Mubarak’s ouster.

Mubarak’s release “will cause chaos,” said human rights lawyer Nasser Amin. “It will be used by Islamists as proof of the return of the old regime … and can lead to new alliances between revolutionary groups and political Islam.”

El-Beblawi’s decision followed an appeal from the campaign that spearheaded the protests against Morsi to use the emergency measures to keep the former president behind bars.

Legal pot isn’t high on Obama’s agenda

By Lesley Clark

McClatchy Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama doesn’t support changing federal laws to legalize marijuana, though a prominent physician he once was said to want as his surgeon general says the drug has “very legitimate medical applications.”

White House deputy press secretary Josh Earnest said Wednesday that although Obama thinks that “targeting individual marijuana users … is not the best allocation for federal law enforcement resources,” he doesn’t “at this point advocate a change in the law.”

Under federal law, all pot sales are illegal, with marijuana classified as a Schedule 1 controlled substance, in the same category as heroin and LSD. The administration’s stance on legalization is being viewed closely by advocacy groups and in the states of Washington and Colorado, each of which voted last November to legalize, regulate and tax marijuana.

Earnest’s remarks came as reporters asked him about a reversal by CNN’s chief medical correspondent, Sanjay Gupta, who once was considered a candidate for surgeon general. Gupta wrote on CNN’s website two weeks ago that he’s “come to the realization that it is irresponsible not to provide the best care we can as a medical community, care that could involve marijuana.”

Earnest said the administration’s position “has been clear and consistent for some time now that while the prosecution of drug traffickers remains an important priority, the president and the administration believe that targeting individual marijuana users, especially those with serious illnesses and their caregivers, is not the best allocation for federal law enforcement resources.”

He said Obama thinks that law enforcement should prioritize “drug kingpins, drug traffickers and others who perpetrate violence in the conduct of the drug trade.”

Earnest said the president had last talked about the issue in an interview with Barbara Walters in December.

At that time, Obama noted that the two states had legalized marijuana and that “it does not make sense from a prioritization point of view for us to focus on recreational drug users” in such states.

Earnest said he didn’t know whether the president would be willing to take steps to make it easier to conduct research on marijuana’s medical benefits.

Activists say at least 130 killed; regime denies using toxic gas

By Ryan Lucas

The Associated Press

BEIRUT — The images showed lifeless children — wrapped in simple white cloths, their pale faces unmarked by any wound — lined up shoulder to shoulder in a vivid demonstration of an attack Wednesday in which activists say the Syrian regime killed at least 130 people with toxic gas.

The Syrian government adamantly denied using chemical weapons in an artillery barrage targeting suburbs east of Damascus, calling the allegations “absolutely baseless.”

The U.S., Britain and France demanded that a team of U.N. experts already in the country be granted immediate access to investigate the claims.

Videos and photographs showed row upon row of bodies wrapped in white shrouds lying on a tile floor, including more than a dozen children. There was little evidence of blood or conventional injuries, and most appeared to have suffocated. Survivors of the purported attack, some twitching uncontrollably, lay on gurneys with oxygen masks covering their faces.

Activists and the opposition leadership gave widely varying death tolls, ranging from as

weapons in Syria. But the probe is limited to three sites and only seeks to determine whether chemical agents were used, not who unleashed them.

The White House said the U.S. was “deeply concerned” by the reports, and spokesman Josh Earnest said the Obama administration had requested that the U.N. “urgently investigate this new allegation.”

Almost exactly one year ago, President Barack Obama called chemical weapons a “red line” for potential military action, and in June, the U.S. said it had A Syrian man mourns a loved one Wednesday after an alleged conclusive evidence that Assad’s poisonous gas attack in Damascus.

The regime and its ally, Russia, have denied the allegations, pinning the blame on the rebels.

The murky nature of the purported attacks, and the difficulty of gaining access to the sites amid the carnage of Syria’s war, has made it impossible to verify the claims. After months

The regime began shelling the capital’s eastern suburbs of Zamalka, Arbeen and Ein Tarma around 3 a.m. as part of a fierce government offensive in the area, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group.

Observatory director Rami Abdul-Rahman cited activists in the area who said “poisonous gas” was fired in rockets as well as from the air. He said he had documented at least 136 deaths, but said it was not clear whether the victims died from shelling or toxic gas.

Syria is said to have one of the world’s largest stockpiles of chemical weapons, including mustard gas and the nerve agent sarin.

Manning rejects deal, gets 35 years Soldier convicted of leaking secrets seeks pardon, could be free on parole in 7 years

By Julie Tate

The Washington Post

A military judge on Wednesday sentenced Pfc. Bradley Manning to 35 years in prison, bringing to a close the government’s determined pursuit of the Army intelligence analyst who leaked the largest cache of classified documents in U.S. history.

The long prison term is likely to hearten national security officials who have been rattled by the subsequent leaks from former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden. Manning’s conviction might also encourage the government to bring charges against the man who was instrumental in the publication of the documents he disclosed, Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks.

Manning, 25, was acquitted last month on the most serious charge he faced — aiding the enemy — but was convicted on multiple other counts, including violations of the Espionage Act, for copying and disseminating classified military field reports, State Department cables and assessments of detainees held at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.

“The message won’t be lost for everyone in the military,” said Steven Bucci, director of the Douglas and Sarah Allison Center for Foreign Policy Studies at the Heritage Foundation. “When you sign a security clearance and swear oaths, you actually have to abide by that. It is not optional.”

Civil liberties groups condemned the judge’s decision.

“When a soldier who shared information with the press and public is punished far more harshly than others who tortured prisoners and killed civilians, something is seriously wrong with our justice system,” said Ben Wizner, director of the American Civil Liberties Union’s Speech, Privacy and Technology Project. “This is a sad day for Bradley Manning,

but it’s also a sad day for all Americans who depend on brave whistle-blowers and a free press for a fully informed public debate.”

Manning will receive 3 1/2 years of credit for time served in pretrial confinement and for the abusive treatment he endured in a Marine brig at Quantico, Va., making him eligible for parole in seven years. He will serve his sentence at the military prison in Fort Leavenworth, Kan. On Wednesday, Manning stood at attention, with his attorneys at his side and his aunt behind him, as he listened to Judge Denise Lind read the sentence aloud. He did not appear to react to her decision.

Lind, an Army colonel, also said Manning would be dishonorably discharged, reduced in rank to private and forfeit all pay. He had faced up to 90 years in prison.

As Manning was escorted out of the packed courtroom at Fort Meade, Md., more than half a dozen supporters shouted out to him: “We’ll keep fighting for you, Bradley! You’re our hero!”

According to his lawyer David Coombs, Manning told his distraught defense team after the sentence was issued, “It’s OK. Don’t worry about it. I know you did your best. I am going to be OK. I am going to get through this.”

Coombs said at a news conference that he will seek a presidential pardon for his client in the coming weeks. He read a statement from Manning in which the private reiterated his reasons for leaking classified material, saying he had “started to question the morality” of U.S. policy. Manning added that if his request for a pardon is denied, he will serve his time “knowing sometimes you pay a heavy price to live in a free country.”

“I will gladly pay that price if it means we could have a country that is truly conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all women and men are created equal,” he said.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest said any application will receive routine consideration. The administration had no further comment on the sentence, and military prosecutors also did not comment on the sentence.

Coombs said recent disclosures about NSA surveillance had eclipsed the attention paid to Manning’s court-martial. Asked how he would advise Snowden on the possibility of returning to the United States for trial, Coombs said: “I would tell him the current environment is not one friendly to whistle-blowers.”

“Under the current administration, leaking information to the press is tantamount to aiding the enemy,” he added.

Coombs said the prosecution had offered Manning a plea deal prior to trial in order to get him to testify against WikiLeaks in an ongoing investigation in the Eastern District of Virginia. Coombs said the government offer was “a length of sentence that exceeded what Manning received today” and was rejected.

The court-martial will now enter a “posttrial” and appellate phase. The government is required to compile a complete record, review all transcripts and findings, and submit its final version to a military official known as the convening authority, Maj. Gen. Jeffrey Buchanan.

Manning can petition Buchanan for clemency during this phase. Manning’s case will also be reviewed by the Army Court of Criminal Appeals, which will decide whether the verdict and sentence can be appealed.

Gonzales: Encouraged by support

Alex Hanna, left, and Yon Hudson were denied a marriage license at the Santa Fe County Clerk’s Office on June 6. The couple have filed a lawsuit that is now pending in District Court in Santa Fe.

Continued from Page A-1 “Accepting that you are gay is complicated with fears about disappointing those you love, or becoming disconnected with a sense of place that is as much a part of me as my sexuality,” Gonzales wrote in the blog post, which went up on the website Wednesday morning.

Since then, many have taken to social media to show their support for him and his experience.

“Based on the reaction today, it reflects the beauty of our families in Northern New Mexico to accept our sons and daughters for who they are,” Gonzales said, adding that it’s shown him “it is important for people to step out and to stand up and be proud of who they are and to be able to share it with their community.”

The announcement on the website, which also advocates for legalization of same-sex marriage, came on the same day that Doña Ana County Clerk Lynn Ellins began issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

Gonzales also wrote about his marriage, his two daughters with his former wife and details about coming out to his parents, friends and children, who, he said, all accepted him.

“To have this sense of distance removed from those most important in my life is an incredible relief,” he wrote, adding that Santa Fe is “a town that can embrace all kinds of people” and “a multi-cultural community that has thrived on our diversity.”

Gonzales — who announced July 18 that he was seriously considering a run for mayor — is a former Santa Fe County commissioner, who won election in 1994 at age 27. His father was the mayor of Santa Fe from 1968-72. Gonzales left the state Democratic Party chairmanship after four years in the position. He currently serves on the Board of Regents for New Mexico State University and works for Rosemont Realty, a commercial property company in Santa Fe. For now, Gonzales said, he is still “very serious about running for mayor” and is “in the process of visiting with a lot of people throughout the city … listening to what they want for the future of Santa Fe.” He said he would make an announcement about whether he will pursue a mayoral run in about a week and a half.

Gonzales is now one of two openly gay potential candidates for the city’s highest office, along with City Councilor Patti Bushee. Three other city councilors — Bill Dimas, Chris Rivera and Rebecca Wurzburger — also have announced that they’re hoping to get their names on the ballot, as well as former Santa Fe County Manager Roman Abeyta and local resident Margaret Josina Campos.

Wedding: AG urges courts to expedite cases on gay marriage Continued from Page A-1 The wire service quoted Char Ullman, 51, saying, “I was in a coffee shop grading dissertations when my partner sent me an email saying, ‘You want to get married?’ I went home to brush my teeth and headed to the courthouse.”

King said it’s possible that other county clerks around the state might follow suit. (Santa Fe County Clerk Geraldine Salazar told the AP on Wednesday, however, that she would wait until the issue is settled in court.) There could be a situation in which same-sex couples in counties that don’t allow same-sex marriage would travel to counties to get married.

“It leaves the state in an uncertain position,” King said. “I think there’s still some risk that there will be some people who think they are married when they aren’t.”

King said the Doña Ana action makes it more urgent for the courts to expedite action on lawsuits filed by several same-sex couples who have been denied marriage licenses.

The state Supreme Court last week denied two separate but similar petitions for a ruling on whether county clerks may decline to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, suggesting the lawyers first seek a writ of mandamus from a lower court. Both cases were filed by same-sex couples who have been denied marriage licenses this year.

One case, filed by Santa Fe men Alex Hanna and Yon Hudson, is back in District Court in Santa Fe. The other, filed by the state ACLU

WhAt they SAid Laura Schauer Ives, legal director of the state chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union: “We agree that it’s unconstitutional to deny same-sex couples the ability to marry in New Mexico.

We understand the urgency same-sex couples in New Mexico feel to get married.

At the same time, we want to be sure that same-sex couples understand that we will not have certainty until our state courts have the opportunity to weigh in on the issue. The best way to ensure that the licenses issued today in doña Ana County provide the lasting legal protection that same-

and other groups on behalf of several lesbian couples from around the state, is in District Court in Albuquerque.

Ellins isn’t the first county clerk to grant marriage licenses to gay couples. In 2004, Sandoval County Clerk Victoria Dunlap issued 66 such licenses. She only stopped when she was legally forced to stop by then Attorney General Patricia Madrid.

In a 2010 divorce case, state District Judge Sarah Singleton of Santa Fe ruled that those Sandoval County marriages are valid. The licenses were never invalidated because the matter was never litigated after Madrid won a temporary restraining against Dunlap.

Also on Wednesday, the American Civil Liberties Union and other organizations filed an emergency request in state District Court in Albuquerque to allow Jen Roper and Angelique Neuman from Pojoaque to legally marry immediately because Roper suffers from a life-threatening form of brain cancer.

Her health has deteriorated severely in the past few months, a news release said.

Roper’s main concern is that her three children with Neuman be legally protected in the event of her death.

“Angelique and I have been married in our hearts for 21 years and raised three wonderful children together,” Roper said. “Because of my illness, we do not have the luxury of waiting years for the courts to decide whether loving, committed same-sex couples can marry in New Mexico. For us, the time is now.”

sex couples need is for our state courts to move expeditiously to guarantee the freedom to marry for all New Mexicans.”

David Coss, santa Fe mayor: “History was made today in doña Ana County. ... The laws of man have taken an important step forward, but it is the laws of humanity and the inalienable rights of justice and equality that truly triumph.”

Sam Bregman, democratic Party chairman: “Today is a great day for equality in New Mexico. doña Ana County Clerk Lynn Ellins, a great democrat, made history and helped ensure that marriage

equality will move forward throughout New Mexico.”

New Mexico Conference of Catholic Bishops: “This is a significant matter that affects society at large and as such is one that is best decided through the legislative branch of government, and, in absence of its action, by the judicial branch.

There are cases currently in process to be heard and decided by the New Mexico state supreme Court. The legislative process (and the judicial, to a lesser degree) at the state government not only allows appropriate public debate on the issue but provides definitive legal direction for the state.”

NSA: Ordered to fix program Continued from Page A-1 “For the first time, the government has now advised the court that the volume and nature of the information it has been collecting is fundamentally different from what the court had been led to believe,” John Bates, then the surveillance court’s chief judge, wrote in his Oct. 3, 2011, opinion.

The court, which meets in secret, oversees the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, the law authorizing such surveillance in the United States.

It has been criticized by some as a “rubber stamp” for the government, but the opinion makes clear the court does not see itself that way.

Bates’ frustration with the government’s lack of candor extended beyond the program at issue to other NSA surveillance efforts.

“The court is troubled that the government’s revelations regarding NSA’s acquisition of Internet transactions mark the third instance in less than three years in which the government has disclosed a substantial misrepresentation regarding the scope of a major collection program,” Bates wrote in a scathing footnote.

The Washington Post reported last week that the court had ruled the collection method unconstitutional. The declassified opinion sheds new light on the volume of Americans’ communications that were obtained by the NSA and the nature of the violations, as well as the FISA court’s interpretation of the program.

The release marks the first time the government has disclosed a FISA court opinion in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit. The lawsuit was brought a year ago by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a privacy group.

“It’s unfortunate it took a year of litigation and the most significant leak in American history to finally get them to release this opinion,” said foundation staff attorney Mark Rumold, “but I’m happy that the administration is beginning to take this debate seriously.”

The pressure to release the opinion was heightened by a series of recent revelations about government surveillance based on documents leaked to The Washington Post and Britain’s Guardian newspaper by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.

Over the past 21/2 months, those revelations have reignited a national debate on the balance between privacy and security, and President Barack Obama has promised to assuage concerns about government overreach, in part through more transparency.

The document was released along with several others related to a controversial collection program approved by Congress in 2008 under Section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act. Through that program, the NSA may target for collection the emails and phone calls of foreigners “reasonably believed” to be overseas.

Under Section 702, the NSA collects more than 250 million Internet communications each year, the opinion said. The vast majority — 91 percent — are obtained from Internet providers such as Google, Yahoo and AOL through a program codenamed PRISM. At issue here was the less voluminous “upstream” collection that takes place as communications flow across Internet hubs — not from service providers such as Google. Under that program, the NSA diverted international data passing through fiber-optic cables in the United States into a repository where the material could be stored temporarily for processing and for the selection of foreign communications, rather than domestic ones. But in practice, because of technological difficulties, the NSA was unable to filter out the “wholly domestic” communications between Americans.

Officials stressed that it was the NSA that brought the collection method to the court’s attention as part of its regular reporting process. “This was not in any respect an intentional or wholesale breach of privacy of American persons,” Robert Litt III, the general counsel for the Office of the Director of the National Intelligence, told reporters Wednesday.

Still, Bates noted that it was not until May 2011 — several years after Section 702 was approved — that the NSA told the court that its upstream collection of Internet communications may contain entire Internet “transactions” not related to the target. In other words, the agency may be collecting emails between two Americans or people inside the United States in violation of FISA. Bates ordered the collection to stop until the NSA could propose an acceptable remedy. In November 2011, Bates signed an order approving the fix, which included a new technical means to segregate transactions most likely to contain U.S. persons’ communications and reducing the retention period from five to two years.

In April 2012, the NSA decided to conduct a purge of all upstream data collected since Section 702’s inception in 2008, senior intelligence officials said. They could not estimate the quantity, but one official said it was “lots.” Said another: “It would have been everything.”

The newly released opinion also reflects Bates’ frustration with the court’s inability to independently verify the NSA’s assertions, a sentiment underscored in a recent statement made to The Washington Post by the current chief judge, Reggie Walton.

Because of the “sheer volume” of transactions acquired by the NSA, “any meaningful review of the entire body of the transactions” was not feasible, Bates wrote. “As a result, the court cannot know for certain the exact number” of wholly domestic communications but was reliant on the NSA’s samples of data. “Even if the court accepts the validity of conclusions derived from statistical analyses, there are significant hurdles in assessing NSA’s upstream collection,” he wrote.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation sued after Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., got the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to acknowledge in July 2012 that the NSA’s surveillance had at least once violated the Constitution.

“The FISA Court has noted that this collection violates the spirit of the law, but the government has failed to address this concern in the two years since this ruling was issued,” Wyden said Wednesday. “This ruling makes it clear that FISA Section 702, as written, is insufficient to adequately protect the civil liberties and privacy rights of law-abiding Americans and should be reformed.”

In brief

Assault: Attorney says woman on sick leave to cope with trauma Continued from Page A-1 currently divulged on this.”

John Day, the lawyer for the victim, said the alleged sexual assault occurred at the suspect’s residence.

He said his client was there because “they were acquainted,” and that she waited “more than a day” to report the incident to her supervisors, who then asked that the case be turned over to state police.

“That’s pretty normal for sex-assault victims to have mixed feelings about [reporting an attack immediately],” Day said. “We see that all the time, especially in the case of acquaintance rape.”

Day said his client did not want to be identified and that he would leave the identification of the officer accused of the sexual assault to the city or state police.

He said the accused officer was not his client’s supervisor, but a “veteran” officer in a supervisory capacity whose wife works with victims of sexual abuse.

“What’s problematic here is that the victim in this case, she can’t get access to sex-assault services,” Day said. “There’s already … a blame-the-victim process going on, which is unfortunate. She has received support from members of the police department, which is very gratifying. … But the normal avenues of help are not necessarily open to her.”

Day said his client is cooperating with the state police investigation as well as an internal-affairs investigation by the city police department.

“The [city] department has been supportive of her, which is gratifying, but it’s a very difficult thing to be attacked by a co-worker, a colleague, and it adds to the trauma of a sexual assault when it’s someone you know and work with,” he said.

Day said his client tried to go back to work, but she has been forced to take sick leave to deal with the trauma. He said he has asked the city manager to allow his client to take paid administrative leave.

Chief Rael, at an impromptu news conference at his office early Wednesday afternoon, was guarded about releasing new information.

“Obviously, I was surprised, but by the same token, what I felt is irrelevant,” he said.

“What I needed to do was to report the matter as a criminal investigation to an outside agency. Upon learning of the situation, I immediately referred to the New Mexico State Police and directed an internal-affairs investigation also be conducted.”

Asked if the woman is alleging rape or sexual penetration, rather than a more general sexual assault, Rael said he could not discuss the details of the allegation.

“I believe that I have a responsibility to both officers,

Union: Test for toxins

2010 study identified trouble in state buildings downtown

By Barry Massey

The Associated Press

A public employees union urged Gov. Susan Martinez’s administration on Wednesday to test state buildings near downtown Santa Fe for possible environmental contamination to determine whether it’s a source of worker health problems.

Communications Workers of America local president Donald Alire said workers in the Public Education Department and other agencies have complained of respiratory problems and other illnesses for several years.

The union wants testing for hazardous vapors that could seep into the buildings from possible contamination in the soil and groundwater from leaking gasoline storage tanks, as well as chemicals from dry cleaners, automotive repairs shops and other businesses that operated in the area in the past.

The union released a 2010 study by the state Environment Department that identified downtown areas with a high risk of potential contamination. Some parcels of land are near the Education Department’s building, the Bataan Memorial Building, which houses several agencies, and an 80-year-old state office building that’s connected to a newer complex for the attorney general’s office.

The study was done for the city of Santa Fe, but Alire said the union is highlighting the findings “not to panic people but to make sure our government leaders are using the tools at their disposal to identify and remediate contamination, which is having a debilitating effect on people working in areas that harmful vapor intrusion may exist.”

for government buildings, said the agency will review the study but had no immediate comment about its findings of potential environmental contamination risks.

He said the department “will always work to make sure that our workplace environment is safe and secure for all employees and visitors and to mitigate any potential hazard or threat.”

There also has been work on the education building in the past two years to deal with mold, asbestos and ventilation problems.

The department has detected elevated lev-

els of radon in some government buildings in Santa Fe, including the Villagra Building that’s part of the attorney general’s complex.

The building was built as a New Deal project during the Great Depression.

There is groundwater contamination near downtown Santa Fe from gasoline that leaked from underground storage tanks. Contaminated soil and water were removed during the construction of a district courthouse, which is about a block from the state office buildings that are the subject of state worker concerns.

In brief

Police say man used child to steal electronic tablets Santa Fe police are looking for a man who made shoplifting a family affair by using a child to ferry stolen merchandise out of a store.

According to a police report, a man entered the Hastings at 542 N. Guadalupe Street at 7:22 p.m.

Aug. 13 with two women and four children. They went to a display of electronic tablets, took four boxes of tablets and then asked for the bathroom key, said police spokeswoman Celina Westervelt.

She said they took the tablets out of the boxes while in the bathroom and put them into a backpack worn by a 6-year-old boy who is believed to be the suspect’s son.

The police have posted a security video of the group in the store, hoping someone will identify the group.

The man is described as 5 feet, 9 inches tall, weighing 210 pounds and wearing a dark striped shirt and dark jeans, with possible tattoos on his right arm. The first woman, who had three children with her, is described as 5 feet, 5 inches tall, about 160 pounds with brown hair, and wearing a peach-colored top, black pants and glasses.

No charges filed over what artist says may be ‘misunderstanding’

By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

Accused of stealing her own jewelry, Taos Pueblo’s Patricia Michaels said Wednesday she is shocked and furious.

The former reality star contestant and fashion designer said there has been a misunderstanding between her and Santa Fe Legends, the gallery displaying her work.

“This is insane,” Michaels said. “My jewelry wasn’t stolen. I am not a thief. I don’t think they quite understand.”

The artist was the first Native American woman on Project Runway, a reality show featuring clothing designers competing in weekly challenges. Michaels claimed second place in that competition, and has since been “without a day of rest,” fulfilling orders.

Michaels said she went to Legends on Tuesday to pick up some jewelry on display during Indian Market weekend show. Some of the pieces had already been sold to customers. She explained that she uses the originals to copy color and measurements for new orders and said the buyers were aware of this.

Michaels said she had four orders for a necklace and four orders for a pair of earrings, both of which were on display in the gallery.

Michaels said she had discussed this with the gallery president, Lauren May. But, according to a story posted on the Santa Fe Reporter website, gallery staff called the Santa Fe Police Department after Michaels had removed some of her own work on Tuesday. Celina Westervelt, the department’s public information officer, said police responded to a call at the gallery, but a criminal complaint wasn’t filed.

Legends valued the pieces at about $20,000 total.

Michaels said she was surprised at the accusations given she had already taken some jewelry on Sunday to complete orders, and that she had planned on returning all the pieces Thursday. Gallery director Leslie May did not return calls to The Santa Fe New Mexican on Wednesday. Michaels said Leslie May had been sick recently, which may have contributed to the misunderstanding.

An employee at Legends, who declined to give her name or title, said the gallery was hoping to resolve the issue with Michaels “amicably,” and that she had heard the artist was planning to return the jewelry.

The New Mexican has previously reported that Leslie May helped Michaels with the slew of public relations inquires after the Runway contest, and that the two were “friends.”

Despite the incident, Michaels she said she doesn’t have any plans to move her work to a new gallery.

“It’s a gallery I believe in,” Michaels said.

Police: Cerrillos Road gas station robbed

Beware jury duty scam

A masked man driving a vehicle believed to have been stolen robbed a gas station Wednesday night.

Celina Westervelt, the Santa Fe Police Department’s spokeswoman, said a Caucasian male wearing a gray bandanna over his face robbed the Fill Up, 2631 Cerrillos Road, at about 9:19 p.m.

Wednesday.

Westervelt said the man is about 5 feet, 11 inches tall and was wearing a gray zip-up sweater and dark pants. He knocked a gray semiautomatic handgun on the store counter and said, “Give it up.” The cashier turned over an unknown amount of money.

The suspect then fled southbound on Cerrillos Road in a green Infiniti vehicle with the New Mexico license plate LFR928. A vehicle with a similar description and matching plates had been reported stolen on Aug. 16.

The Administrative Office of the United States Courts is warning people in New Mexico of a new jury duty scam.

A Santa Fe woman received a call from a person claiming to work for the U.S. District Court who told her that she had missed jury duty and a bench warrant had been issued for her arrest.

The caller offered to set up an appointment with a judge. But first, the woman had to pay a $427 fine before the end of the business day, using a prepaid money card from a grocery store or supermarket such as Wal-Mart or Walgreens.

The caller instructed her to call a designated phone number and read off the account number on the money card. The caller told the woman she would eventually get her money back after meeting with the judge.

The woman’s husband, suspecting something fishy, contacted the U.S. District Court in Albuquerque and learned his wife was the target of a scammer.

In August 2011, The Associated Press reported Residents on the south side of the city will be on a jury duty scam in Curry and Roosevelt counties. The caller in that case was searching for getting a new trash collection day starting Sept. 2.

According to Liz Roybal, the city’s recreation complex manager, city crews made a temporary repair after the Aug. 15 break. But the pipe broke again before it could be fixed. Roybal expects the pool to reopen Thursday.

Stressed employee vents family issues Dear Annie: I am the manager of a small business with one co-worker.

For the past eight years, “Sheila” and I have gotten along fairly well. Last year, not so much. Sheila has become lazy, obnoxious and surly. She seems to have a chip on her shoulder, and her teenage kids are a nightmare (drugs, shoplifting, alcohol, sexual activities, theft, you name it). She brings all of this baggage to work and talks about it. I just try to get through the day without too much drama.

When it was time for Sheila’s endof-year evaluation, I could not bring myself to give her a better grade than the previous year. Not only had the evaluation criteria become stricter, but Sheila had changed. When she saw her score, she became angry and upset. I asked whether she had any ideas for her development and improvement for the coming year, and she said to increase her alcohol consumption.

I am close to retirement. Should I put the hard feelings behind me or find someone to replace her?

Sheila is a single mom, and I know she needs the job. I am torn. I have referred her and her family to our EAP counseling several times, but it falls on deaf ears. — Need Less Drama Dear Drama: We feel sorry for Sheila. She has her hands full at home and is probably stressed beyond measure.

When she comes to work, she feels secure enough to vent, and it relieves the pressure and is therapeutic for her. Unfortunately, it’s not therapeutic for you.

Please be compassionate, as well as honest. Tell Sheila that you understand she is under a great deal of pressure, but when she takes out her frustrations at work, it makes it difficult to be around her. Say that talking about her troubles will help, but she should utilize the EAP services so that her problems won’t spill over onto her job.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Your creativity will emerge, and you could feel more focused by late afternoon.

A true friend will stand behind you. In fact, your bond will become stronger in the next few weeks. Tonight: At home.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Pressure builds in the next few weeks to take a stronger stand at work or to step up to the plate with a caretaking issue.

Tonight: Start planning your weekend.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You are willing to push yourself to extremes in order to accomplish what you want. Self-discipline is one of your assets, but also be sure to honor your limitations.

Tonight: Use caution with your funds.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Get as much done as you can in the morning, when you are able to accomplish more. Also, others will be more receptive then. Tonight: A mini shopping trip.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You could be overwhelmed by your choices right now. By evening, you will have a clearer sense of your priorities and a better sense of which direction you should head in. Tonight: Be spontaneous.

Hocus Focus

Dear Annie: My heart breaks for all of these grandparents who write to you saying they have no contact with their grandchildren. I had the same issue.

After two years of sleepless nights, daily crying and grieving, I realized my life was passing me by. The three of my five children who decided we are not good enough to participate in their lives never grieved the loss at all. In fact, they are thriving and happy, and now there are four grandchildren we do not know.

My oldest and youngest daughters sat back patiently wondering whether I would stop mourning long enough to remember that they never left me, and that their kids are excited and happy to be part of our lives.

They call me often, and we visit frequently. While I am deeply saddened that I no longer know my other children, we should not forget those who do appreciate and respect us.

My advice to all who are suffering is to take charge of your life. Give yourself permission to be happy, strong and creative. Parenting has no recipe. Other factors helped shape each of my children. I have no idea why some act like we don’t deserve to live. But I do know that I am stronger, more forgiving and closer to those who want to share my life. — Finally at Peace Dear Finally: Thank you for your sage advice. We cannot always change the things that bring us grief, but we can change how we respond.

We hope your words bring comfort and encouragement to others.

Dear Annie: I want to respond to “Frustrated in Louisville,” whose husband interrupts her constantly.

My husband does the same thing and also believes he is doing nothing wrong. I don’t think he is intentionally being mean. I believe it’s related to his other symptoms of dementia.

Perhaps that lady’s husband is also experiencing early signs of dementia.

Animal shelter offers pet insurance with adoption Trupanion, the leading provider of pet insurance in North America, is launching a new partnership with the Santa Fe Animal Shelter & Humane Society that provides 30 days of veterinary coverage for adopted companion animals.

The program offers adopters peace of mind, relieving them of the financial burden of veterinary care if their furry friend has an unexpected illness or injury after leaving the shelter. The Trupanion plan covers 90 percent of veterinary expenses with no upfront costs or payout limits.

All animals at Santa Fe animal shelter are examined by the shelter’s veterinary team, who provide detailed medical records of any treatment received during their shelter stay.

These records help to determine any preexisting conditions a dog or cat may have.

All conditions not considered pre-existing are covered at 90 percent, less than a $250 deductible, with no payout limits per year, per condition, or over the lifetime of the pet.

And there are no waiting periods — coverage starts immediately.

The program is available at many shelters throughout the nation. Shelter employees are not expected to sell or be experts on the Trupanion plan, but instead, they’re asked to refer the pet owner to call Trupanion or visit the website. The no-obligation insurance certificate is designed exclusively for nonprofit animal shelters.

Dogs prove no match for rabbit cabal I

firmly believe that there are people who have a Zen-like experience when they walk their dogs. It’s morning, and the sun is just coming over the eastern horizon. The air is cool. The dogs are eager but restrained companions because they respect the sanctity of the morning walk. Their dogs seem to exude Shakespeare’s joyous incantation: “Our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in running brooks, sermons in stones and good in everything.”

Um, no. Our walks are nothing like that. I blame it mostly on the rabbit cabal, which I will cover in a moment. But first, let me tackle the topic of “eager” companions.

In our house, between the hours Hersch of 6 and 8 a.m., prime walking Wilson times, all members of our family Tales of Tails know they need to be extremely careful about their behavior. They cannot walk toward the garage. If they wish to sleep in, they cannot move a muscle and must under all circumstances keep their eyes closed. We never say the word “walk.” We’ve learned to spell it out, W-AL-K. As in, “Whose turn is it to W-A-L-K you know who?” If we mess up any one of the above, we will be attacked in a barrage of “eagerness.” Tank will jump on the bed. Nellie will just jump up and down in general.

A wrestling and growling match commences.

I’ve hidden in my closet to put on running shoes.

If I open the door, I’ll have two 100-pound Bernese mountain dogs assisting me by grabbing shoes, extra socks, sprinting out, coming back, suggesting another pair, chewing those and barking. A lot.

It’s less of a Zen experience and more of a “feeding lions in the zoo” experience.

I wake up stressed: Can I get the dogs harnessed, their leashes on and out the door before they explode in puppy eagerness? Is it possible for me to get dressed and not lose my glasses, cellphone, toothbrush to these fur balls of nuclear energy?

Their eagerness is caused by a simple fact. They are lovable, loyal dogs. They believe the world is fair and no one would ever cheat at a game or take advantage of their, well, lack of cleverness.

In a phrase, they are no match for the rabbit cabal.

Yes, rabbits. Specifically cottontail rabbits or Sylvilagus floridanus. This year, we seem to have an influx of these menacing, cheating creatures. Sure, you think you think they’re cute. But ask Jimmy Carter, who almost lost his presidency when he was viciously attacked by a swimming rabbit in 1979. That image is still burned into my consciousness like the shark in Jaws. In our house, the line, “We need a bigger boat,” has been replaced by, “Always check behind you for rabbits. They lurk!”

I’m certain that our neighborhood rabbits meet every morning and plan. No doubt in a circle, they “high paw” each other, and then run out to preplanned positions on our road as we come out of our house. There is one rabbit that stays on the highest hill to be the sportscaster. The other rabbits take up positions in the chamisa. Some are tasked with just freezing and seeing how close the dogs will get before they are seen. The record is a couple of feet. “Wait a minute!” Tank thinks, “Was that a rabbit? I thought it was a rock!” There are others who wait, then at the last minute, they sprint across the road. The dogs go crazy. The human, who was almost in a Zen-like state, is yanked back to reality by two leaping, whining dogs who think, “This time, we’ll get ’em!”

But the rabbits are guerrilla fighters. In a blink, they are into the chamisa, chest-bumping their mates and laughing at the Berners, who are still running in circles.

Then, of course, there is Fred, the senior rabbit.

He is the Messi, the Usain Bolt, the Marta, the Barry Sanders of our neighborhood rabbits.

There is hush when Fred stretches and gets ready.

The sportscaster intones, “Fred is up next. Here comes the two-legged and the dogs. Fred eyes them. Fred is pointing a paw at the human! That can only mean … there he goes. He’s on the road! Well, the dogs don’t see him yet. But the human does. There is a strange whimpering sound coming from the human. It sounds like, ‘Please no! Just let us get home! We’ll do anything!’

“Now, Fred is on his haunches. The male dog sees him! It’s on! Now, the female is leaping in the air! Straining at the leash! They’re off! Look at Fred! He’s calm, a true champion! They’re almost on top of him! Oh! They’ve got him! No! There he is! He changed directions again! The dogs have turned. Fred has switched directions a third time! He’s done a double left crossover move! One of the dogs is down! Now it’s up in pursuit. Yes! The leashes have crossed! The human is swearing and he’s down! The human is on the ground!

The dogs are tangled in the leashes with the human!

“There goes Fred! A victory hop, and he’s off in the chamisa! A true champion! Oh, this never gets old!”

It’s no wonder I sleep in.

Hersch Wilson is a Santa Fe author. He writes, “Although I love writing these columns about all things canine, I have been a terrible procrastinator on my latest book.

I’ll continue writing the column, but just one column a month. Thank you for your kind words and support!”

LOS ANGELES — Ivan, Domino and Joshua arrived together at the animal shelter when their ailing owner could no longer care for them. To get adopted, they will need to go as one.

“They are such a dignified trio of dogs,” said Joanne Yohannan, senior vice president of operations for New York’s North Shore Animal League America, said of Ivan, Domino and Joshua. “It’s going to take a very special person, someone who has the room and will love them.”

To help with a multiple adoption, some shelters waive adoption fees or sponsor two-for-one deals. When shelters across the county cope with an annual kitten population explosion, prices drop drastically for those who can take multiple pets. There are lots of extras thrown in too, like spaying or neutering, microchips and collars.

State issuing fewer driver’s N.M. revenues projected to grow by $296M next year licenses to immigrants The Associated Press

By Barry Massey

The Associated Press

As more states are preparing to give driving privileges to immigrants who illegally entered the U.S., heavily Hispanic New Mexico appears headed in the other direction.

The state is issuing fewer driver’s licenses to them, with the number of first-time licenses dropping 21 percent during the first half of this year, according to a review of state records by The Associated Press.

The reason for the abrupt decline remains unclear.

Officials in Republican Gov. Susana Martinez’s administration say there’s been no recent crackdown by the Motor Vehicle Division and the requirements for immigrants to obtain a license haven’t changed, although the governor has fought unsuccessfully for three years to scrap the license policy.

An immigrant rights advocate suggests the weak economy may be a cause. The state economy has been lagging behind the broader national recovery, posting much smaller job growth figures than national numbers in recent months.

“Immigrant workers generally go where they have family and where they have job opportunities. Clearly there aren’t many job opportunities in New Mexico,” said Marcela Diaz, executive director of Somos Un Pueblo Unido, a Santa Fe-based group that opposes efforts to stop licenses for immigrants.

New Mexico is among 11 states with laws to allow immigrants, regardless of their immigration status, to obtain a driver’s license or driving privilege card, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. However, most of those laws haven’t taken effect yet.

Washington and New Mexico have long offered the licenses to immigrants, and have the

No clear reason for sudden decline

broadest policies in the country because the same license granted to a U.S. citizen is available to immigrants, including those here illegally.

In contrast to New Mexico’s double-digit decline this year, Washington state has seen a 5 percent drop in first-time licenses for people without a Social Security number, according to the state’s Department of Licensing. There were 8,467 licenses issued in the first six months of the year in Washington.

In New Mexico, 3,082 new foreign national licenses were granted from January through June, down from 3,886 in the same period in 2012. However, license renewals for immigrants have remained relatively stable — declining only 2 percent in the first half of the year compared to 2012.

Martinez has made repealing the license law a centerpiece of her agenda in a state where Hispanics account for 47 percent of the population. She contends New Mexico has become a magnet for out-of-state immigrants seeking a license by falsely claiming they are residents of the state.

However, supporters in the Democratic-controlled Legislature contend the law improves

public safety by having immigrant motorists obtain insurance and adding them to the government’s license database. Advocates also say immigrants need to be able to legally drive to jobs, doctor appointments and school.

Seven states, including Illinois, Colorado and Connecticut, enacted laws this year to create two-tier systems that grant immigrants the legal privilege to drive. But, unlike in New Mexico, those cards or licenses can’t be used for identification, such as boarding an airliner or entering a federal building.

The two-tier approach is similar to what Utah has long done in offering a special driving permit to immigrants.

Illinois expects to start issuing temporary driver’s licenses to immigrants later this year.

Other newly enacted laws won’t become effective until next year or 2015.

New Mexico has about 1.4 million licensed motorists and has issued nearly 105,000 foreign national driver’s licenses since 2003, according to figures from the Taxation and Revenue Department. However, officials do not know how many went to immigrants illegally living in the U.S. because applicants aren’t required to submit information about their immigration status.

County to hold meetings on capital improvement projects The New Mexican

Santa Fe County will host a series of meetings this month and next to gather public input on its plans for future capital improvement projects.

A package of tax cuts also was approved earlier this year.

Administration officials said federal budget cuts were a main reason why New Mexico’s revenues are lower than expected.

New Mexico is a big recipient of federal spending at national laboratories and military bases.

Cuts in federal contracting will lower the state’s gross receipts tax collections, lawmakers were told.

But Clifford said the state’s economic outlook is improving because New Mexico has started to see job growth.

“Prudent spending restraint exercised by the Legislature and the executive over the last three sessions means the state will have adequate revenue to accommodate modest spending growth and at the same time add to reserves to help replace revenue lost due to federal spending cutbacks,” Clifford and Taxation and Revenue Secretary Demesia Padilla said in a written statement to lawmakers.

COMMENTARY

Numbers don’t tell story of ‘stop and frisk’

Robert M. McKinney Owner, 1949-2001 Inez Russell Gomez Editorial Page Editor

Bruce Krasnow Interim Editor

OUR VIEW

Higher education: A sprawling affair

Michael Smerconish

The Philadelphia Inquirer

S

hira Scheindlin, the federal judge who found the NYPD’s implementation of “stop and frisk” unconstitutional, relied largely on a numerical analysis in concluding that there was “indirect racial profiling” in violation of the Fourth and 14th Amendments. But John Timoney, who ran police departments in New York City, Philadelphia and Miami, told me that the numbers don’t tell the full story.

The parameters for the crime-fighting tactic were established in a 1968 Supreme Court case, Terry v. Ohio, which allows stop and frisk under certain circumstances.

The Terry case involved a veteran police officer who spied three men he thought were casing a store for a robbery. His pat-down of one of the men revealed he had a weapon. In Terry, the court ruled that such an intervention must be based on more than an officer’s hunch.

More than any other factor, police in New York cite “furtive” movements as a justification to stop and frisk someone.

That means a person was jittery. Maybe he walked in an odd fashion, or touched a pocket in a certain way. Or perhaps it seemed he was trying to determine if he was being observed. Furtive movement was the reason 48.3 percent of blacks were stopped, as well as 45.2 percent of Hispanics, but only 39.9 percent of whites. Scheindlin also found significance in the fact that 83 percent of stops between 2004 and 2012 involved blacks and Hispanics, even though they are just over 50 percent of the city’s residents.

Additionally, the judge noted that between January 2004 and June 2012, the NYPD conducted more than 4.4 million Terry stops. Fifty-

W

two percent of these were followed by a frisk for weapons, and a weapon was found in 1.5 percent of these instances.

In other words, in 98.5 percent of the 2.3 million frisks, no weapon was found.

Timoney says there is more here than just the numbers.

“Well, when you look at the gross number you say, ‘Oh, my God, that’s an awful lot of people,’ but when you break it down to the size of the police force, the size of the city, on average it averages out to one stop a week per uniformed police officer,” Timoney said.

Timoney said the low yield of weapons confiscated does not justify ending the program.

“The point should not be to use the low percentage as a rationale for not using ‘stop, question and frisk,’ ” he said.

“The proper response is to make sure the officers are doing these according to law, that is, based upon reasonable suspicion and are able to articulate the rationale.

Again, while the numbers, when taken in total, may alarm many people, when you break them down and give them some context it is a lot more meaningful. However, that may not satisfy the average citizen, especially from a minority community.”

Timoney worries about the impact of the decision on cops.

“You know, there’s a perception out there that the police departments are filled with all

the eager-beaver police officers looking to get out there and lock up the bad guys, work their tails off,” Timoney said.

“Unfortunately, that’s not true.

They reflect the society they come from, and so you’ve got some very good cops, you’ve got some cops that are mediocre, and then you’ve got some cops that are out-and-out lazy — you can’t get them to work, and I think this will play into their hands. I hope it doesn’t, but I think it will. Some of the lazy cops will tell the good cops, ‘You see, you do this stuff, you go out and work, and you get yourselves in trouble.’ ” He also believes that his former colleague New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly is getting a bad rap.

“The guy doesn’t have a racist bone in his body,” Timoney said. “I’ve known him for 30 years, and I know a lot of the men and women that lead that department and they are not deliberately indifferent.

Clearly in every department there is room for improvement and, obviously, more training. However, the notion that you stigmatize that department, that’s a heavy lift.

So, we’ll see how the appeal plays out.”

There’s another important consideration that is being lost in the celebration of Scheindlin’s opinion as a victory for civil rights — namely, who might be adversely affected. Mayor Michael

Bloomberg reacted to the racial implications by saying: “We go to where the reports of crime are. Those, unfortunately, happen to be poor neighborhoods, or minority neighborhoods.”

His words were reminiscent of something President Barack Obama offered in the aftermath of the Trayvon Martin verdict.

“The African American community is also knowledgeable that there is a history of racial disparities in the application of our criminal laws, everything from the death penalty to enforcement of our drug laws. And that ends up having an impact in terms of how people interpret the case.

“Now, this isn’t to say that the African American community is naive about the fact that African American young men are disproportionately involved in the criminal-justice system, that they are disproportionately both victims and perpetrators of violence.

It’s not to make excuses for that fact, although black folks do interpret the reasons for that in a historical context.”

Should crime rise as a result of limiting stop and frisk, the most victimized will be from the same communities whose civil liberties the judge sought to protect.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

A stand on gun control: U.S. continues to fail

T

his week, a 23-year-old Australian male, here on a baseball scholarship, was walking down a road in Oklahoma after visiting his girlfriend, when three teenagers, sitting on a porch, spotted him and, for no particular reason, shot and killed him.

I ask you — why did they have guns?

All were underage. Why do we tolerate the proliferation of guns in this country — when Australia and Britain do not? Why should I listen to the cries of anguish from gun owners about “assault on their Second Amendment rights” recently voiced in a letter to the editor (“Get secrets on A-1,” Aug. 20).

Assault on their rights? The rights being trampled on are the gun lobby’s refusal to establish a better safer U.S. Of course, this is just one story. A study recently said it would take Japan 300 years to catch up to our homicides/injuries by guns in the last six months.

God bless America.

Nothing’s free As a Canadian summer resident of Santa Fe, I read with interest Bizia Greene’s column (“American Dream still alive in über happy Canada,” Aug. 18). I certainly agree with much Ms. Greene has said but, as my dad used to say, “nothing’s for nothing.” In Ontario, I pay a Harmonized Sales Tax of 13 percent on almost all retail purchases, including restaurant meals. My combined provincial and federal income tax is in excess of 40 percent. If numbers like these were imposed on Americans, I suspect there would be rioting in the streets.

Break the ban Bizia Greene’s column (American Dream still alive in über happy Canada,” Aug. 18) shows the many advantages of Canadian citizenship.

She writes that “Canadians want to travel.” One of Canadians’ favorite vacation travel spots is Cuba. Greene asks, “How is all this travel possible?” It is possible because Canadians have the right to travel to places, like Cuba, that are forbidden to U.S. citizens. It is time to end the 50-plus years of this travel ban, and allow everyone the right to travel to Cuba without fear of penalty from the U.S. Department of the Treasury. As Greene writes, “It makes sense, eh?”

hen state Sen. John Arthur Smith speaks, people listen — and that includes the rest of the Legislature and Gov. Susana Martinez. A Democrat from Deming, Smith is a respected voice on fiscal matters and serves as vice chairman of the Senate Finance Committee.

That he has taken the trouble to write to Gov. Martinez about concerns with the financial state of Northern New Mexico College should alert its supporters. That would include students, faculty and staff, not to mention the people of Española and greater Rio Arriba County. The college, whether in its two- or four-year form, is an economic driver in Northern New Mexico. Not only does it provide jobs, but the degrees students obtain mean better wages and salaries, all of which help the economy. Founded in 1909 as a Normal school that trained teachers, the college has been opening the doors to opportunity for more than 100 years.

However, Smith’s letter — which also addresses how the state delivers higher education — is worth paying attention to. Northern, which transformed itself from a two-year college to a four-year, degree-granting institution in 2005, is financially stressed. Smith is quite clear: He is concerned “with the institution’s future, especially because of its recently expanded four-year mission and limited financial resources. I would like to see whether partnering with a more established university system would better serve students and more efficiently use state resources.”

Despite saying that, Smith told the Rio Grande Sun in an interview that he doesn’t think a partnership would work: “It does not have much to sell as a partner.” He thinks the college might need to be taken over or revert to a two-year institution.

Smith, for nearly two decades, has warned that New Mexico has too many colleges and can’t fund them all adequately. It’s a concern that The New Mexican has shared.

We have called for better oversight of colleges and universities, with attention to excellence and less duplication of mission. Both Republican and Democratic governors have failed to rein in higher education-kingdom builders.

We would disagree, though, that Northern lacks assets.

It brings a rich legacy as a Normal institution, training the North’s Hispano residents to become teachers, helping generation after generation out of poverty through education. Its students, educated properly, will be entrepreneurs, educators, scientists and technicians. Their knowledge will enrich their town and state — and with 80 percent of them currently taking remedial (the new term is “developmental”) courses, it is clear that institutions such as Northern are necessary. The students, whether through lack of effort or because of lousy schools, did not learn what they needed to succeed in college before high school graduation. Catching up at Northern beats them staying untrained and uneducated forever. It also relieves the pressure on four-year universities to take every applicant, no matter how ill-prepared.

Smith’s letter, though, should spark a response from the governor — and a discussion about what higher education in New Mexico should look like. We know the lottery scholarship fund that helps students pay tuition at public colleges and universities is nearly broke. There are duplicate majors and missions in four-year institutions across the state. Taxpayer dollars are stretched thin. The state must make better decisions about how scarce tax dollars are spent.

As we discuss those important questions — this is one reason there is a Higher Education Department, to lead the discussion in consultation with schools, educators and legislators — surely we can find a way to take the traditions of a one-time Normal school, apply them to today’s needs and stabilize an institution that is needed in Rio Arriba County.

Whether the right fit, though, is a four-year college, is starting point for the discussion.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Aug. 22, 1988: Washington — A Soviet rocket crashed in northeastern Canada Sunday morning after lighting up the sky from New Mexico to Michigan as it fell out of orbit, a Defense Department spokesman said.

Capital boys start with win over Taos Lady Jaguars fall to Taos girls in season opener

COMMENTARY

Another round of tomfoolery from the NCAA

How ready were the Capital Jaguars for the 2013 boys soccer season to start?

It took the Jaguars 30 seconds to get off their first attack of the year, as Brayan Perez knocked his 5-yard shot past Taos goalkeeper German VillaGutierrez.

But as things were apt to be in the season-opening match against the

Tigers on Wednesday evening, the Jaguars were a little too excited — the side judge called Perez offsides.

“We were really Capital 2 excited because it was the first Taos 0 [match] of the season,” senior midfielder Jason Alarcon said. “Since our goal is to win every [match] this season, we came out with all that energy. But then …”

Then, the cruel reality of the season began. There were still 89 minutes of soccer left, which Capital ended up winning 2-0. There’s 19 matches and 2½ months to go

before a Class AAAA state champion is crowned. The Jaguars need to learn a little patience, or their bodies will teach them.

By the second half, their energy waned, and their legs started to cramp. Three players suffered that fate and had to leave the field for a short period of time.

“It seemed like we definitely didn’t have enough electrolytes in our system tonight,” Capital head coach Eugene Doyle said.

At least Capital has the ability to overcome those afflictions, as Doyle used all 17 players on the roster. The best part about that depth is that

every reserve knows his role, something that wasn’t as clear last season.

“If I have to substitute, I know who’s coming in for me,” Alarcon said. “This year, we’re far more organized than last year as far as substituting. Last year, defensive players were playing forward and forwards were playing defensive positions.”

That can only help a group that is already familiar with each other. The Jaguars’ knack for knowing where their teammates will be was evident in the eighth minute, when Alarcon found Jesus Garcia with a short com-

T

one-deafness is nothing new at the NCAA. The guys in charge haven’t been listening to anyone except each other for years.

That’s why they prattle on endlessly about “student-athletes.” And why nothing approaching real reform ever gets done. It’s also why so many of the few things they actually get off their duffs and do seem so arbitrary.

And especially why they still come down hard on kids who get free meals and go easy on the athletic factories that make a fortune off all that free (student-athlete) labor.

Because that’s the way the NCAA has always rolled.

Yet even with that checkered past, this latest bit of tomfoolery marks an embarrassing new low.

It began when a 24-year-old named Steven Rhodes finished a five-year stint in the Marines this summer, then decided to go back to school and find out if he could still play some football. So he wrote to the coaches at Middle Tennessee State and asked to walk onto the team.

On the plus side, Rhodes stood 6-foot-3, weighed 240 and was versatile enough to work out at both tight end and defensive end; and as a former sergeant, the MTSU coaches knew he was bound to set a good example in the locker room. The one drawback was that Rhodes hadn’t played any football since his senior season at Antioch (Tenn.) High in 2006, unless you count the dozen or so games he played in a rec league on a Marine base last year.

Which, naturally, the NCAA did.

Some eagle-eyed investigator noticed that Rhodes was in violation of a rule stipulating that student-athletes (there’s that word again) who don’t enroll in college within a year of graduating high school lose one year of college eligibility for every academic year they participate in “organized competition.”

According to the NCAA, those rec league games counted because both teams and the officials wore uniforms and somebody kept score.

And because the dozen games were spread over two academic years, Rhodes was ordered to sit out this season and forfeit two years of eligibility total. Sounds fair to me.

“Man, it was like intramurals for

Lady Hilltoppers lose nine seniors, but team’s skill — and confidence — remain intact

By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

i

f there is one thing that Los Alamos girls soccer captain Meghan McDonald doesn’t lack, it’s confidence.

The senior forward predicted big things for the Hilltoppers this season.

Think something blue.

“We’re going to take it this year,” McDonald said of winning the Class AAAA championship. “I think we have so much potential in this group of girls.”

McDonald is not the only one on the team who is confident in their state championship potential. Fellow senior captain Kristin Funsten shares McDonald’s boldness.

“I have a lot of faith in this team,” Funsten said. “We all have a lot of skill, and we’re going to work together to hopefully make it to the finals and take state.”

Los Alamos has been close the past two seasons, reaching the semifinals before exiting stage left. The three seasons before that, Los Alamos played for the state title.

Granted, it only brought home the runnerup trophy.

The only one not all-in on the Lady Hilltoppers’ certitude is head coach Jiri Kubicek.

Kubicek lost nine seniors from last year’s

inside u Plenty of new faces around girls soccer in Northern New Mexico. Page B-3

team, and believes this group can replicate the success of that squad. It just might take a while.

“We have the potential, but we’re going to have to work very, very hard to get to the level we were at last year,” Kubicek said.

“It’s going to take us a couple months, but eventually we’re going to get there.”

Los Alamos has 16 players on the roster — seven seniors, three juniors and six sophomores — and Kubicek worries that a few injuries here and there might hurt the team’s chances at a state championship.

“We don’t have much depth,” Kubicek said. “We’re a very small team. If we stay healthy and everybody works hard, we’re

going to be strong.”

No surprise, Funsten is confident the younger girls will be big contributors this season. As far as skill is concerned, she said it is hard to tell the seniors from the sophomores.

“The girls that are younger have so much potential and so much skill,” Funsten said. “It’s like there is no difference in age because there’s so much skill between all of us. The younger girls all have the same skill that the older girls have.”

Though the team might look young on paper, a lot of the players have varsity experience.

“We used [the younger girls] last year and a lot of those kids gained some experience,” Kubicek said.

The Lady Hilltoppers lost to Aztec 1-0 in overtime of the AAAA state semifinals last year, and the loss was especially hard to swallow because they felt that last year was going to be that elusive championship season.

“It was very depressing because we thought last year was our year, but I think we have the basis for an even better team this year,” McDonald said. “We have a much broader group of girls, and we have a fresh start to revamp this whole team.”

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — All-Pro linebacker Von Miller donned a scout team skullcap over his helmet Wednesday and spent much of practice helping the Denver Broncos prepare to play more than a third of the season without him.

Miller was part spectator, part tutor when he wasn’t squaring off against Pro Bowl left tackle Ryan Clady as a member of Denver’s scout team in his first practice since the NFL handed him a six-game suspension for violating the league’s drug-abuse policy.

Nate Irving took his place at strongside linebacker in the base defense alongside Danny Trevathan and Wesley Woodyard, and Shaun Phillips replaced him at rush end in the nickel packages as the Broncos began work-

“I don’t know that one guy can take Von’s place,” coach John Fox said. “I just know collectively as a football team we have to all pick it up.”

It was a cloud that hung over the team all of camp.

Now, at least, the Broncos know they’ll be without their disruptive defender for the first six games of the regular season and that they’ll have to generate pressure and make stops in other ways.

NCAA: Reverses course amid uproar Continued from Page B-1 us,” Rhodes told The [Murfreesboro] Daily News Journal, which first reported the story. “There were guys out there anywhere from 18 to 40-something years old. The games were spread out. We once went six weeks between games.”

As one writer at The Big Lead cracked wise: “Just like the BCS National Championship Game. You can see why the NCAA thinks this is similar to collegiate football.”

In any case, the school appealed, an uproar ensued, and on Monday, the NCAA reversed course, deciding Rhodes was entitled to four years of eligibility and could play right away.

“We thank Steven for his service to our country and wish him the best as he begins college,” NCAA vice president of academic and membership affairs Kevin Lennon said — likely just moments after he finished picking crow’s feathers out of his teeth, Lennon also promised that, “As a part of the ongoing review of NCAA rules, our members will examine the organized competition rules, especially as it impacts those returning from military service.”

In case you missed it, the NCAA announced its latest set of sweeping rule changes less than three weeks ago. Apparently there were so many other stupid rules to review and/or get rid of, that this one — dating to 1980 — slipped through the net. It’s a small mistake,

granted, except it’s also part of a larger pattern. The NCAA has continued making money, but it hasn’t gotten much else right since Mark Emmert took over as president.

The organization compromised its integrity by playing fast and loose with its own rules while investigating Miami’s football program. It just bowed out of a licensing deal with Electronic Arts for a popular college football video game, hoping to limit its exposure in a lawsuit brought by former college athletes that could result in billions of dollars in damages, not to mention a first-ever payday for current Division I football and basketball players.

Member schools, meanwhile, are likely to extend their own separate licensing deals with EA. It’s an arrangement that, just like the BCS, enables those same schools to go around the NCAA and divvy up what used to be its share among themselves. If those same power brokers ever figure out how to do the same with the basketball tournament, and a few are already working on a scheme to do just that, poof! — there goes the NCAA’s operating budget.

There was a time when the NCAA used to make rulings in cases like Rhodes’ — and others just as silly — and made them stick. But even that bit of petty authority no longer goes unchallenged. Small wonder the NCAA looks less scary and more irrelevant with each passing day.

PGA TOUR

For Woods, still work to do this year

By Doug Ferguson

The Associated Press

JERSEY CITY, N.J. — This might be the best way to measure Tiger Woods’ season.

Sam Snead is getting more attention than Jack Nicklaus.

Woods said again Wednesday at The Barclays this already has been a great season, and it’s difficult to argue. His five wins — including two World Golf Championships and The Players Championship — are three more than anyone else on the PGA Tour. He is leading all the right indicators, such as the Vardon Trophy for the lowest scoring average, the money list ($2.6 million more than anyone else) and the No. 1 seed going into the FedEx Cup playoffs that start Thursday.

The standard for Woods, however, always has been the majors, and he was shut out for the fifth straight year.

“His lack of winning a major is the only thing talked about, which I think is sad,” Bill Haas said. “I think it’s ignorant. But that’s what we are basing his year on. He may even say, ‘Oh, I’m disappointed because I didn’t win a major. But he’s not winning the smaller events.

He’s winning the WGCs and Bay Hill. And yes, it makes what he’s doing that much more impressive, absolutely.”

Woods is stuck on 14 majors, leaving him four short of the Nicklaus standard. The five wins this year, after three wins in 2012, has put him at 79 career wins, moving him closer to Snead’s record 82 wins on the PGA Tour.

“I tell you what, I never thought I would ever get there

Tiger Woods during the third round of the PGA Championship earlier this month at Oak Hill Country Club in Pittsford, N.Y. Woods has won this year — just not a major.

ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE PHOTO

this quick,” Woods said. “It’s been an amazing run to get here. One of the things I’m most proud of is winning five or more tournaments 10 years in there. That’s one of the stats that I look at as one of the ones I’m really proud of. This is one of those years.”

The next chance to add to his wins starts Thursday at The Barclays, the first of four

FedEx Cup playoff events against some of the strongest fields of the year.

Yes, the majors are over.

There is still plenty up for grabs — for Woods, British Open champion Phil Mickelson and even someone like Rory McIlroy.

Even though Woods has twice as many wins as anyone else, Mickelson could make a

case for PGA Tour player of the year if he were to win a playoff or event (or two), particularly the FedEx Cup and its $10 million prize. Despite two decades of greatness and a spot in the World Golf Hall of Fame, Mickelson has never won player of the year, a money title or the Vardon Trophy. Haas didn’t hesitate when asked who had the best year — Woods.

Neither did Masters champion Adam Scott.

“It’s hard to pass up looking at five wins,” Scott said. “I think the next best guy might have two, is that right? That’s a great year to win that many times. It’s all personal opinion.

If you think winning a major is what you base success on, then if you haven’t [won], you haven’t had a great year. But winning … I’ve always based it around winning events, and I don’t think one major makes up for five tournaments.”

That led to another question posed to Scott: Would he trade seasons with Woods?

“I’d rather have mine, that’s for sure,” said Scott, who collected his first major at Augusta National. “He may want mine. I mean, No. 15 is proving to be difficult for him, so that would have given him that. But they’ve all got to get tougher the more you get.”

Woods only played nine holes of his pro-am Wednesday at Liberty National, the course along the Hudson River across from the Statue of Liberty. He experienced stiffness in his neck and back from what he attributed to a soft bed in his hotel, and Woods decided only to chip and putt on the back nine as a precaution.

THE NEW MEXICAN

B-3

Northern New Mexico

New faces around Northern N.M. SCOREBOARD district last year with a 3-4 record.

By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

There are a lot of changes — especially in the coaching ranks — this year in Northern New Mexico. Here’s a look at who is staying and who is going.

DISTRICT 2AAAA Last year’s district runner-up, Santa Fe High, is returning senior goalkeeper Mia Melchor, who second-year head coach Keith Richards believes is one of the best keepers in the state. Other returning seniors include midfielder Tiffany Trujillo and defenders Anna Swanson and Eliana Bell. Some key underclassmen include junior forward Elena Lemus and sophomore forward Carley Cook, who was a big contributor as a freshman last season.

Alvin Valdez replaces David Gomez as the girls soccer coach at Capital. Valdez joined the team just two weeks ago. The team was practicing with the varsity and junior varsity boys during the summer.

The Lady Jaguars finished third in the

DISTRICT 2A-AAA The Lady Horsemen of St. Michael’s lost Gabby Verani and team captains Elizabeth Serrano, Micaela Gabaldon, Viola Pecos and Alicia DeLeon-Dowd to graduation, but the most noticeable loss is head coach Ed Velie, who was in charge of the Lady Horsemen for the last 19 years before calling it quits after last year’s district-winning season.

Former Bosque School and 2012 A-AAA coach of the year Robyn Serge replaced Velie.

Another fresh face in the district will be Marina Schachowskoj, who will be taking over the girls of Santa Fe Prep. Schachowskoj will be replacing Aaron Kauffman, who stepped down after just one year as head coach.

Schachowskoj came on board at the beginning of August, but as of Wednesday has not officially signed a contract.

Desert Academy will try for repeat state tournament berths, but must replace Hannah Lochner up front.

DISTRICT 1A-AAA Ian Williamson and Robertson lost six seniors from last season’s district-champion squad. The Cardinals will be young this year — mostly juniors and sophomores — which is good news for the rest of the district, considering Robertson has been dominating for so long.

Also dominant is Lady Cardinals junior Caitlin Deifendorf, who had the secondmost goals in A-AAA with 50.

District runner-up Taos also will be a young team. They only lost four players to graduation, but the majority of the players returning will be juniors. One senior, Angelica Pacheco, will head the offense after scoring 32 goals in 2012.

Pojoaque Valley, which finished 2-8 in the district last year, only lost one player, Deanna Lovato, and has most of last year’s squad coming back for head coach Angelo Montoya.

Santa Fe Indian School, which finished at the bottom of the district, lost nine players to graduation, the most of any school in the district.

Skating The Los Alamos girls soccer team practices Tuesday in Los Alamos. The Lady Hilltoppers were a perfect 6-0 in District 2AAAA play last year. JANE PHILLIPS/THE NEW MEXICAN

Preview: Captains confident about team Continued from Page B-1 The seven seniors on the team have more than just a few years of varsity experience together. McDonald estimates the group has played together since they were all 8 years old.

The Lady Hilltoppers were a perfect 6-0

in District 2AAAA play last year, and Kubicek admits it’s not the toughest district.

“The competition in our district is not the strongest,” he said. “I think [Santa Fe High] will be our toughest competition.”

The Demonettes were the only team from 2AAAA to score on the Lady Hilltop-

pers last year. Los Alamos still won 4-1.

That one goal gives the Lady Hilltoppers another objective beyond their aspirations for a blue trophy.

“Hopefully, no one in our district scores a goal against us,” McDonald said.

It might be the one thing McDonald hedges on this year.

Start: Taos shows it can hang with Jags Continued from Page B-1 bination pass between each other. Garcia punched it in from 6 yards out to take a 1-0 lead.

The second goal came in the 60th minute, when Luis RiosOlivas scored on a bouncer he slotted under Villa-Gutierrez in a scrum of players off an Alarcon corner kick.

While Capital showed moments of strong possession, especially in the first half, the team seemed to drag in the face of a physical Taos defense.

The Tigers were quick to pounce on passes and 50-50

balls, and it turned the match into more of a sputtering defensive struggle. Not that Taos head coach Casey Tonrey minded.

“I thought in the second half, we fought back in the midfield,” Tonrey said. “It was physical, but it’s always physical. That’s an incredibly skilled and fast team. They’re wellcoached. I expect them to go far in AAAA.” Taos, though, showed it can hang with one of the best in AAAA. While Villa-Gutierrez gave up a pair of goals, he also showed great agility minding

the net. He deflected RiosOlivas’ direct kick in the 10th minute enough for it to hammer off the crossbar and away from harm.

He also stopped Bayron Sican’s attack in the 21st minute, as well as got his hands on a Garcia shot six minutes later.

GIRLS SOCCER TAOS 5, CAPITAL 1 The Lady Tigers started the season banged up, as several players didn’t make the bus ride because of injuries. Add midfielder Angelica Pacheco to the list, as she left the game after

just five minutes and didn’t return.

That just turned the nondistrict opener into a “Zoie and Lucia Show.” Zoie Hensley scored two goals and dished out an assist, while Lucia Costanza had two unassisted goals and a pair of assists as Taos broke out to a 3-1 lead at the half.

Taos head coach Michael Hensley came away impressed with the five eighth-graders who saw plenty of playing time to open their varsity careers.

“They did a really good job,” Hensley said. “It was encouraging. They did some things I didn’t expect them to this early in the season.”

California, Japan advance in Little League World Series

By John Kekis

The Associated Press

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. — Grant Holman almost gave away a crucial victory with his arm, then took it back with his bat.

After being victimized for a three-run homer that put his Chula Vista, Calif., team in a hole on Wednesday night, the tall right-hander hit a three-run homer in the top of the ninth, and California rallied for a 6-3 victory over New England champion Westport, Conn., to earn a berth in the U.S. championship game at the Little League World Series.

“All I wanted to do was hit it hard,” Holman said, his right arm in ice after a 10-strikeout performance and winning reliever Rennard Williams smiling at his side.

Micah Pietila-Wiggs laced a one-out single to left, his third hit of the game, to start the

ninth and Jake Espinoza followed with a double to rightcenter before Holman con-

nected off reliever Alex Reiner.

Chula Vista’s bullpen came up big, shutting down Westport over the final five innings.

“It was fabulous,” Chula Vista manager Rick Tibbett said about his relief corps. “That’s what they do.”

Matt Brown hit a three-run homer in the bottom of the fourth for Connecticut, and the Northeast champions seemed headed for a big victory.

But California shortstop Nick Mora hit his second homer of the game to make it 3-2 with one out in the top of the sixth and Chula Vista tied it when Reiner threw a wild pitch with the bases loaded.

The victory snapped Connecticut’s 20-game winning streak.

“It’s disappointing, of course, to lose,” Westport manager Tim Rogers said. “It’s painful to be so

close to winning and lose. Obviously, they’re a very talented team. There’s no holes in their lineup whatsoever. We’ll play tomorrow.”

Westport plays Northwest champion Sammamish, Wash., on Thursday. Sammamish (3-1) moved on to the matchup in the U.S. bracket by eliminating Nashville, Tenn., 6-5 on Tuesday.

Westport was coming off a 9-7 victory over Sammamish on Sunday.

Holman pitched 3⅔ strong innings. Chasing his second no-hitter of the World Series, Holman had struck out nine — including the first six batters he faced, swinging — and was cruising when Max Popken drew a leadoff walk to start the fourth. Harry Azadian broke up Holman’s no-hit bid with a single to right field and Brown then homered.

TOKYO, JAPAN 5, TIJUANA, MEXICO 2 The big bats of Tijuana, Mexico, were silenced by Tokyo, Japan, in the first game Wednesday.

When Brandon Montes crushed a home run off Japan starter Kazuki Ishida, the big bats of Mexico seemed ready to rumble again.

“I definitely felt chills,” Ishida said. “But I made sure to keep my composure and keep on throwing.”

And hitting.

Taken out after three innings with an eye on a future game, Ishida slammed a tie-breaking home run in the bottom of the fifth inning and unbeaten Tokyo rallied past powerful Tijuana 5-2 on Wednesday to earn a berth in the international championship game at the Little League World Series.

Ishida’s blast came off Tijuana starter Ramon Mendoza.

Blue Jays lose 12th straight The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Alfonso Soriano hit a tiebreaking two-run homer with two outs in the eighth inning, Ichiro Suzuki got his 4,000th hit between the major leagues and Japan, and the Yankees handed the Toronto Blue Jays their 12th straight loss in New York, 4-2 on Wednesday night.

David Huff (1-0) pitched one-hit ball in five innings of relief to shut down the Blue Jays before New York finally got to Toronto’s R.A. Dickey.

The 39-year-old Suzuki hit a liner off Dickey (9-12) that bounced just beyond diving third baseman Brett Lawrie for the milestone hit in the first inning. Suzuki broke a tie with Lou Gehrig when he got his 2,722nd major league hit in his 13th season. The speedy outfielder amassed 1,278 hits in nine seasons with Orix of Japan’s Pacific League.

Mariano Rivera pitched the ninth and earned his 37th save.

TIGERS 7, TWINS 1 In Detroit, Torii Hunter hit a go-ahead, two-run double in the seventh inning and scored from second base on a passed ball to help the Tigers beat Minnesota.

Drew Smyly (5-0) struck out two in a perfect inning in relief of Anibal Sanchez. Jose Veras entered with two outs in the eighth inning and closed the game for his first save with the Tigers.

Kevin Correia (8-10) allowed four runs — two earned — and nine hits over 6⅔ innings.

The Twins let Detroit score four runs with two outs in the seventh. The Tigers gave up a 16th straight stolen base, extending the longest active streak in the major leagues, according to STATS. RANGERS 5, ASTROS 4 In Arlington, Texas, Elvis Andrus hit a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the ninth to give Texas its major league-leading 40th comeback win of the season with a victory over Houston.

During a wild eighth inning, Rangers reliever Tanner Scheppers gave up three hits, one walk, hit two batters and threw two wild pitches to surrender the lead. But closer Joe Nathan (4-2) shut down the Astros in the ninth to get the win.

ORIOLES 4, RAYS 2 In Baltimore, Chris Davis hit his major league-leading 46th home run, Adam Jones also homered, and the Orioles beat Tampa Bay to avoid a threegame sweep.

Davis connected against Jeremy Hellickson (10-7) leading off the fifth inning. The drive landed on Eutaw Street beyond the 25-foot wall in right field and gave the Orioles a 4-2 lead.

Wei-Yin Chen (7-6) gave up two runs and six hits in seven innings to help the Orioles win for only the third time in their last nine games.

Hellickson allowed four runs and seven hits in 4⅓ innings.

MARINERS 5, ATHLETICS 3 In Oakland, Calif., Brendan Ryan hit a two-run double in the sixth and added an RBI single in the eighth to help Seattle past the A’s.

Michael Morse and Brad Miller homered for the Mariners, who overcame an uneven start by Hisashi Iwakuma to beat the A’s for the fourth time in the past five games.

Iwakuma (12-6) gave up a pair of home runs but limited the damage to win his second straight. The Mariners righthander struck out four and walked two in seven innings.

INDIANS 3, ANGELS 1 In Anaheim, Calif., Justin Masterson pitched effectively into the seventh inning, Nick Swisher hit a two-run homer and Cleveland completed a three-game sweep of Los Angeles.

The Indians, who came in 5½ games behind Detroit in the AL Central and 3½ behind Oakland in the race for the second wild card spot, surpassed last season’s win total with 35 games to spare.

WHITE SOX 5, ROYALS 2 In Kansas City, Mo., Dayan Viciedo hit his second career grand slam to highlight a fiverun inning, and Andre Rienzo picked up his first career win as Chicago beat the punchless Royals.

Braves top Mets but lose Heyward

NEW YORK — Chris Johnson hit a three-run homer in the 10th inning, and Atlanta beat the New York Mets 4-1 on Wednesday after Braves outfielder Jason Heyward sustained a broken jaw when he was hit by a pitch.

Atlanta got an RBI single from Freddie Freeman and another impressive start by rookie Alex Wood in splitting the twogame series for its 20th victory in 24 games. The Braves also benefited from a disputed call in the 10th.

Andrelton Simmons singled off Scott Atchison (3-2) with two outs and Freeman hit a two-strike grounder back toward the box that ticked off the bottom of Scott Rice’s glove and rolled behind him. The reliever retrieved the ball and fired to first, where Freeman was called safe.

Greg Burke allowed Johnson’s homer.

Luis Avilan (5-0) pitched out of a basesloaded jam in the ninth and Craig Kimbrel reached 40 saves for the third straight season. He has converted 30 chances in a row.

six-run second inning, and the Cardinals held off the Brewers.

Matt Holliday also homered and Shane Robinson had three hits for the Cardinals, who are one game behind Pittsburgh in the NL Central race.

After taking a one-run lead in the first inning on a double by Craig, the Cardinals went ahead 7-0 in the second off Brewers starter Tom Gorzelanny (3-5). Starting pitcher Jake Westbrook hit a bases-loaded double into the left-center field gap that scored two runs.

PADRES 2, PIRATES 1 In San Diego, Ian Kennedy pitched seven strong innings, combining with two relievers on a four-hitter, and Yonder Alonso drove in two runs as the Padres beat Pittsburgh to avoid a three-game sweep.

Kennedy (5-9) won for the second time in four starts since being obtained from the NL West-rival Arizona Diamondbacks on July 31. He held Pittsburgh to four hits, struck out eight and walked three.

PHILLIES 4, ROCKIES 3 In Philadelphia, Michael Young hit the winning single with one out in the ninth inning after Carlos Ruiz tied the game with a double, pushing the Phillies past Colorado.

Erik Kratz opened the ninth with a double

off closer Rafael Betancourt (2-4). Pinch runner Casper Wells advanced to third on a grounder and scored the tying run on Ruiz’s pinch-hit double to left. Jimmy Rollins was walked intentionally and Young followed with the winning single to left.

DODGERS 4, MARLINS 1 In Miami, Zack Greinke allowed one run in eight innings to win his fourth start in a row Wednesday, and Los Angeles took advantage of sloppy defense by Miami for the second consecutive night.

Greinke (12-3) allowed six hits, walked none and lowered his ERA to 2.91.

Miami committed a season-high three errors, including two in the Dodgers’ threerun fourth inning.

The Dodgers improved to 27-5 since the All-Star break, and they have won 21 of their past 24 road games. They are unbeaten in their past 18 series since midJune.

REDS 10, DIAMONDBACKS 7 In Cincinnati, Shin-Soo Choo went 4 for 5 with a homer and three RBIs to spark Cincinnati’s offensive outburst in a win over Arizona.

Albuquerque (68-64) scored three runs in the bottom of the third, two of which came off the bat of right fielder Alex Castellanos, who brought in Scott Van Slyke and Matt Angle on a line drive to center field, making the score 3-1 in favor of the Isotopes.

Isotopes starter Matt Magill (5-1) got the win after going six innings, allowing three runs with nine strikeouts.

Albuquerque is in third place behind Oklahoma City and Round Rock in the PCL’s American Southern Division.

Can Tebow stick with Patriots?

Ex-Broncos quarterback stumbling in preseason play

By Howard Ulman

The Associated Press

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Tim Tebow walked off the practice field with no reporters blocking his path to the locker room.

Finally, a few strolled up for a 90-second interview then moved on to longer chats with other Patriots.

The media circus that surrounded him last season is gone.

His uncertain future remains.

Ten weeks into what could be his last shot at staying in the NFL, Tebow seems to be on the roster bubble. He is simply trying to make the team now, but has played poorly in two exhibition games.

How poorly?

His passer rating was 0.0 — that’s zeropoint-zero — in New England’s 25-21 win over Tampa Bay last Friday night.

“You would definitely want to do better in some areas,” said Tebow, the only quarterback the Patriots used in the second half vs. the Buccaneers. “Also, you have different things happen that you just try to handle the best way you can.”

He completed just one of seven passes for a loss of one yard, and had one interception on a badly overthrown pass. He was sacked twice on his first nine plays. But the lefty who has trouble reading defenses and zipping passes did what he does best, running six times for 30 yards.

A week earlier, in his debut, he was a bit better — 4 for 12 for 55 yards with four runs for 31 yards in a 31-22 win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

Numbers may not lie, but coach Bill

Belichick sees a larger truth. He watches Tebow at every practice, sees how diligently he studies and how dedicated he is in the weight room.

And he sees some positive steps from the player traded by the Denver Broncos and cut by the New York Jets in a span of 13 months.

“Yeah, definitely,” Belichick said. “I think if you look at the entire week last week, that it will look different than the game did.”

Tebow could get another chance in the third preseason game on Thursday night against the Lions in Detroit. That’ll be five days before the mandatory roster cut to 75 players. The Patriots finish the exhibition schedule Aug. 29 against the New York Giants. The final cut to 53 comes two days later.

Tebow, as expected, says he’s not thinking about his prospects of sticking around.

Grasping the New England offense is difficult enough. “I just focus one day at a time,” he says, “improving every single practice.”

It’s not even an issue? “Just getting ready for the practice,” he says with a smile.

Belichick has been typically reticent.

The Patriots signed Tebow for a reason, of course, and though New England often carries just two quarterbacks, the veteran coach is unfazed by preseason results.

Asked last week if he plans to keep Tebow, if healthy, on the 53-man roster, Belichick said, “That’s not anything that we’re ready to talk about right now. A lot of competition out there. We’ll see how it all plays out.”

There are some factors in Tebow’s favor.

He could be used as a punt protector, forcing opponents to play for a fake on a direct snap. He could line up as a receiver, pose as a decoy or give Tom Brady a target for a quick pass to the sideline that he can run with. He’s played only quarterback in training camp

drills, all open to the media, but could be used elsewhere now that the practices are open for just a short time period.

With Tom Brady having thrown all but 47 of the Patriots’ passes the last four years and Ryan Mallett entrenched as the backup, coaches may view Tebow as a project with plenty of time to work on his quarterbacking skills without having to play in games.

And would the Patriots really keep a sixth defensive end or sixth cornerback instead of him?

But then, there are the negatives.

The Patriots have kept just two quarterbacks in three of the past four years. Tebow tends to scramble too soon, without exhausting all options down the field. And when he does look down there, finding his third or fourth receiving option has been a problem.

And then, of course, some throws have been well out of the receivers’ grasp.

But Belichick is known for utilizing a player’s strengths even if he has glaring shortcomings. That’s the Patriot Way. “All players have different skill sets and some guys do some things better than others,” he said.

“In the end, it’s about production and being able to do enough things to be successful.”

Tebow had success in Denver. He threw the winning pass on the first overtime play from scrimmage against Pittsburgh in the AFC wild-card round, before losing to New England the next week.

He was a flop after the Broncos traded him to the Jets. New York never figured out how to use him and released him last April 29.

Soon, Tebow may be looking for work … again. “I’ve just got to go out there and play as hard as I can and try to improve,” he said.

“And I’ll let a lot of smarter people grade us and judge us.”

Broncos: Lenon signed to bolster LB corps tinkered with contingency plans for weeks, Miller continued some plays,” Woodyard said. getting the bulk of the work at “We’re going to definitely miss practice with the starters until his presence on the football field Wednesday. for those six games but I have no Despite encouragement from doubt in my mind he’s going to the team to speak with the come back and continue to be media, Miller politely declined one of the best players.” interview requests as he walked Phillips noted that instead of off the field after practice. sulking on the sideline, Miller “He’s upset. No one feels spent Wednesday’s workout more upset about this than schooling rookie defensive line- him,” Phillips said. “He felt like men John Youboty and Sylveshe let his team down, he felt like ter Williams on the finer points he let his family down, his name of a slippery pass rush.

“He keeps himself involved,” Phillips said. “He’s a lockerroom guy. He’s the guy that makes everyone laugh and is out there coaching the young guys. He’s giving me pointers and giving other guys pointers. He always does that. That’s Von’s attitude. He’s always helping out everyone else.”

Miller can continue practicing with the Broncos and can also play in their last two exhibition games before his Aug. 31-Oct. 14 banishment, during which time he’ll be allowed around team headquarters and can keep his team-issued iPad playbook but won’t be able to practice or play in any games.

For weeks, the Broncos and Miller expressed confidence things would turn out differently.

Miller insisted when word first broke about his pending suspension last month that he had done nothing wrong, and Fox insisted on practicing Miller with the starters, suggesting that to do otherwise would be tantamount to not playing Peyton Manning for fear that his star quarterback might get hurt.

Although the Broncos have

down. I don’t know how well you guys know Von, but he’s an amazing guy. He’s not a bad guy.

He made bad decisions, but he’s not a bad guy or a bad person.”

With Miller facing suspension and Stewart Bradley needing surgery on his left wrist, the Broncos shuffled their linebacker corps this week, signing 12th-year pro Paris Lenon. They also moved Woodyard from the weak side to the middle and inserted Trevathan, the starter in the nickel defense alongside

Woodyard, into Woodyard’s weakside spot in the base.

“Whatever combinations we end up using, we expect them to play at a high level for us and help us win,” defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio said.

Phillips, for one, embraces, the new defensive configurations. “Whether I’m playing defensive end or linebacker, it really doesn’t matter,” he said.

“Football is football. At the end of the day, you tackle the guy with the ball.”

ASHBURN, Va. — Off the field, Robert Griffin III has decided he’s no Bill Belichick.

On the field, he moved a step closer toward a Week 1 return Wednesday when he took fullspeed, full-team snaps against the first-string defense for the first time since his knee surgery.

The Washington Redskins are home from training camp, but the new setting doesn’t change the team’s overriding narrative. The Sept. 9 Monday night regular season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles is less than three weeks away, and the question remains whether the franchise player who says he’ll be ready to go will indeed be ready to go.

“My eyes are set on Philly,” he said.

To achieve that goal, he must get the OK from his surgeon, Dr. James Andrews, who examined Griffin’s reconstructed right knee on Monday and will do so again after the final preseason game. Even if Andrews says all is well, the final decision will rest with coach Mike Shanahan.

“If the doctor felt like he wasn’t ready to play, I surely wouldn’t play him,” Shanahan said. “But Dr. Andrews could tell me that he is ready, and if I thought something was wrong with Robert through our practice, I wouldn’t put him out there.”

Shanahan limited Griffin to 7-on-7 drills for most of training camp, then last week allowed the quarterback to run some 11-on-11 plays against a scout team defense for the first time. Wednesday was another benchmark. Most of the practice was closed to reporters, but the coach made it sound as if Griffin was working more or less like a regular starting quarterback.

“We see progress,” Shanahan said. “One of the reasons we didn’t throw him right into the fire is we didn’t think he was ready right away. If he keeps on progressing like he has been, he’ll be ready for Monday night.”

Griffin thinks he should have been progressing even faster, and his comments last week that he disagreed with Shanahan’s cautious practice plan created such a stir that the quarterback felt the need to make a special statement the following day to say there was “no conflict” between him and coach.

Griffin’s popularity is enhanced by his willingness to speak his mind publicly, but he said the backlash had him considering whether he should clam up.

“I sat down and talked to a few people to make a decision: ‘Do I stop being who I am, stop being honest with you guys and give you guys ammunition to turn against this team, or do I just go into a shell and Bill Belichick it all week?’ ” Griffin said. “I’m just going to continue to be who I am. And if some-

thing like that does happen, you make the statement to make sure everybody gets its clear.

But I don’t think I can change who I am just because people are going to take my words and put them against me.”

Meanwhile, Griffin’s backup, Kirk Cousins, did not practice Wednesday after spraining his right foot in the Monday night preseason win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was using crutches and wearing an immobilizing boot after that game, but both were gone when he appeared in the locker room around lunchtime.

TexaNs Houston running back Arian Foster was removed from the physically unable to perform list Wednesday and practiced with the Texans for the first time since May. Foster strained his right calf in an offseason practice in late May and struggled with a sore back after recovering from that injury.

“It’s really important,” coach Gary Kubiak said. “He’s been working, it’s not like he’s been standing around. He’s been trying to get all that soreness out and he felt really good the last two days. I think we took a big step forward.”

Foster rushed for 1,424 yards and 15 touchdowns last year for his third straight 1,200-yard season.

Kubiak doesn’t expect Foster to play Sunday against the Saints and he likely won’t play in Houston’s final preseason game on Aug. 29 at Dallas. But that won’t keep him from being ready for Houston’s opener at San Diego on Sept. 9.

CowBoys Middle linebacker Sean Lee and the Dallas Cowboys have agreed on a six-year contract extension through the 2019 season.

A story on the team’s website Wednesday night said Lee’s deal is worth about $42 million but could escalate as high as $51 million depending on different incentives.

CardiNaLs The Arizona Cardinals have signed Dan Carpenter to compete with Jay Feely as the team’s kicker.

Carpenter was released by the Miami Dolphins a week ago. He signed with the Dolphins as an undrafted rookie in 2008 and, coincidentally, took Feely’s job away from him there that season.

At 37, Feely is 10 years older than Carpenter.

“As you get older, you have to prove that you still have it and that you can still do the job and do a great job at it,” Feely said before Wednesday’s practice. “That’s what I’ve been trying to do every day.”

In Miami, Carpenter lost out to Caleb Sturgis, a fifth-round draft pick.

In addition to signing the kicker, the Cardinals released wide receivers Robert Gill and Robby Toma.

Carpenter was in uniform but didn’t do any kicking in practice on Wednesday. His wife gave birth to the couple’s first child on Monday.

TV book Sugar is aptly named yet she has spent a long time in foster care.

She can be aggressive with some dogs, primarily females, yet would probably be lonely as an only dog if her human family was not home most of the time. She does not like cold weather or hot weather, but loves to sun bathe.

She is a huge snuggler so she needs to be with a human family that allows couch and or bed snuggling. She is about 45 pounds max and eats 2 cups of kibble a day, but is VERY food motivated.
