Some view Santa Fe City Council’s decision as sign of changing attitudes

By Daniel J. Chacón and Phaedra Haywood The New Mexican

In 2007, Denver voters approved an initiative to make marijuana possession the lowest law enforcement priority for police. Five years later, Colorado became the first state in the nation to legalize recreational use of marijuana. Now that the Santa Fe City Council has voted to decriminalize possession of an ounce or less of weed, advocates for drug reform hope the decision will set off the same kind of ripple effect that will lead to legalization in New Mexico.

Scientists say N.M. forests are changing Experts: Coniferous tree loss could be harbinger of what’s to come elsewhere By Heath Haussamen New Mexico In Depth

GILA NATIONAL FOREST — The sun illuminates patches of green on brown and black hillsides around N.M. 152 near Emory Pass in the Gila National Forest. Gambel oak and other shrubs whose roots survived a lightning-sparked wildfire in 2013 sprout on many slopes once dominated by ponderosa pines. Black, mangled masses of wood and dead barley plants loom over the new growth, which also includes aspens, grass and wildflowers. The barley grew last fall from seeds the U.S. Forest Service dropped to minimize erosion after the Silver Fire. Pines survived in many areas within the 139,000-acre burn scar. But in other places, the trees were incinerated — and in the most heavily torched areas, new pines aren’t sprouting.

Top 5 items acquired by New Mexico police agencies, By cost

By Anne Constable and Uriel J. Garcia

ast June, the Doña Ana County Sheriff’s Office got a report about a 60-year-old man who had barricaded himself inside his Las Cruces home. The man had been fighting with his son, who left to seek help. When the son returned to the house with a sheriff’s deputy, his father fired a shot through the front door, and the deputy called for backup. The sheriff’s office dispatched a robot equipped with audio and video communication capabilities to negotiate with the man. The negotiations failed and the standoff ended in a fiery explosion and the death of the suspect. But no officers were injured. Kelly Jameson, the department’s spokeswoman, said the robot is just one of a number of items acquired by the agency under the U.S. Department of Defense’s 1033 program, which supplies surplus military gear to state and local law enforcement agencies, including many in New Mexico. “It’s a very lucrative program for us,” Jameson said. “Historically, we see our budget shrinking. We have to be very creative in how we can access better equipment from other sources.” The program has come under intense scrutiny in the wake of the Aug. 9 shooting of an unarmed black teenager by police in Ferguson, Mo. Images of heavily armed police atop military vehicles with machine guns inflamed tensions in the St. Louis suburb and stoked national debate over whether the program has turned civilian police departments into gung-ho military units. A recent editorial cartoon shows Andy Griffith and Barney Fife of The Andy Griffith Show television series alongside modern-day counterparts in full combat gear. The controversy has prompted President Barack Obama to order a review of the program. But even before Ferguson, reports of SWAT teams being deployed to serve ordinary warrants raised concerns about the Pentagon initiative. At the same time, law enforcement officials in cash-strapped communities across the country say the program has been a boon, supplying them with equipment far beyond the armored vehicles and assault weapons that have caused such a stir.

Saudi king warns of terrorist threat

Rescuers reach 20 trapped gold miners BONANZA, Nicaragua — Rescue workers and trapped miners alike frantically dug away at opposite sides of rock and mud that blocked a Nicaragua gold mine, finally succeeding in freeing at least 20 men. Efforts to reach five miners still missing continued Saturday. Antonio Diaz said the miners tried to cheer each other up inside the dark, cold shaft, attacking the slide with their picks and shovels by the light of helmet lamps. But after 24 hours, they began feeling hungry and some started losing hope. “The sadness of feeling yourself trapped in a hole is immense but I never lost hope,” said the 32-yearold miner from a hospital bed in the town of Bonanza, near the El Comal gold and silver mine. “I kept thinking I was too young to die and above all, I thought about my two daughters.” He said the miners finally cut a hole through the blockage and started shouting, but at first there was no answer.

U.S. military drops humanitarian aid WASHINGTON — Aircraft from the United States, Australia, France and Britain dropped food and water to the beleaguered Iraqi town of Amirli, which has been under siege by Islamic State militants for nearly two months, the Pentagon said Saturday night. U.S. airstrikes supported the humanitarian mission. Thousands of Shiite Turkmen have been stranded in the farming community about 105 miles north of Baghdad. The aid came at the request of the Iraqi government, Pentagon press secretary Rear Adm. John Kirby said in a statement. Military operations will be limited in scope and duration as needed to address the humanitarian crisis in Amirli and protect the civilians trapped in the town, Kirby said. Instead of fleeing in the face of the Islamic State drive across northern Iraq, the Shiite Turkmens have stayed and fortified their town of 15,000 with trenches and armed positions.

U.S. airstrikes hit Islamic State forces WASHINGTON — The U.S. military says fighter aircraft and unmanned drones have struck Islamic State militants near Iraq’s Mosul Dam. In a statement issued Saturday, U.S. Central Command says the five latest U.S. airstrikes were in support of operations conducted by Iraqi security forces. Officials say the airstrikes destroyed an armed vehicle, a fighting position and weapons and significantly damaged an Islamic State building. Central Command says it has conducted a total of 115 airstrikes across Iraq. The Associated Press

Efforts to recruit women in construction increase By David Crary The Associated Press

NEW YORK anice Moreno graduated from college with a degree in English literature, but never landed a job paying more than $12 an hour. Now, at 36, she’s back in the classroom — in safety glasses and a T-shirt — learning how to be a carpenter. “I believe it’s going to pay off,” she said amid instruction in sawing techniques. If Moreno’s six-week training program in New York City leads to a full-time job, she’ll have bucked long odds. On this Labor Day weekend, ponder the latest federal data: About 7.1 million Americans were employed in constructionrelated occupations last year — and only 2.6 percent were women. That percentage has scarcely budged since the 1970s, while women have made gains since then in many other fields. Why the low numbers, in an industry abounding with highpaying jobs that don’t require college degrees? Reasons include a dearth of recruitment efforts aimed at women and hard-to-quash stereotypes that construction work doesn’t suit them. Another factor, according to a recent report by the National Women’s Law Center, is pervasive sexual harassment of women at work sites. “It’s not surprising that the construction trades are sometimes called ‘the industry that time forgot,’ ” said Fatima Goss Graves, the center’s vice president for education and employment. “It’s time for this industry to enter the modern era — to expand apprenticeships

a community college in Alabama, landed a job in 2009 with construction giant KBR Inc., and in 2010 became the first woman to take first place in welding at the Associated Builders and Contractors’ National Craft Championships, a competition launched in 1987. Thomas, 29, is now supervising a 10-worker crew at a KBR project in Florida. She speaks occasionally to high school girls, who are impressed by her paycheck that averages more than $2,000 a week. “The biggest issue is getting through to the parents of the kids, the counselors at the schools and making clear that construction is a viable career,” Thomas said. Mary Battle also has succeeded with a construction career, although she says it required unwavering tough-mindedness. Now 50, Battle has been working in cement masonry for 30 years and in 2012 became the first woman elected business manager of Plasterers and Cement Masons Local 891 in Washington, D.C. Under her leadership, the number of women in the local has risen from five to 12, but she says sexist attitudes persist in the industry. “Men don’t perceive of women as someone coming to work, they perceive of women as a sex object,” Battle said. For younger women considering a construction career, Battle tells them: “No matter how much negativity you get, keep on the job and don’t quit.” A mother of six, Battle credits a devoted baby sitter with helping her handle long work hours. Many construction jobs start in early morning, complicating child-care arrangements for some single mothers.

and training opportunities for women, hire qualified female workers and enforce a zero tolerance policy against sexual harassment.” Efforts to accomplish those goals are more advanced in New York than in many parts of the country, with pledges by unions, employers and city officials to boost women’s share of construction jobs. One key player is Nontraditional Employment for Women a nonprofit which offers training programs such as the one taken by Moreno. The organization has arrangements with several unions to take women directly into their multiyear apprenticeships — at a starting wage of around $17, plus benefits — once they complete the program. After four or five years, they can attain journeyman status, with hourly pay of $40 or more. Kathleen Culhane, NEW’s interim president, said more than 1,000 graduates have obtained apprenticeships since 2005, and 12 to 15 percent of the apprentices with some leading unions are women. NEW covers all costs for its students, who must be able to carry 50-pound loads. Beyond learning job skills, the students do role-playing to get ready for future challenges. Among the topics, Moreno said, is how to distinguish between flagrant sexual harassment that should be reported, as opposed to less egregious behavior. “They want us to be prepared for the possibility we won’t be liked, or we’ll be the only woman on the job,” Moreno said. If young women considering a construction career are in search of a role model, Holley Thomas might fit the bill. She took up welding at

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — The king of Saudi Arabia has warned that extremists could attack Europe and the U.S. if there is not a strong international response to terrorism after the Islamic State group seized a wide territory across Iraq and Syria. While not mentioning any terrorist groups by name, King Abdullah’s statement appeared aimed at drawing Washington and NATO forces into a wider fight against the Islamic State group and its supporters in the region. Saudi Arabia openly backs rebels fighting Syrian President Bashar Assad, but is concerned that the breakaway al-Qaida group could also turn those weapons on the kingdom. “If neglected, I am certain that after a month they will reach Europe and, after another month, America,” he said at a reception for foreign ambassadors Friday. Official Saudi media carried the king’s comments early Saturday. “These terrorists do not know the name of humanity and you have witnessed them severing heads and giving them to children to walk with in the street,” the king said, urging the ambassadors to relay his message directly to their heads of state. The Islamic State group has been fighting moderate rebels, other extremists and Assad’s forces in Syria for nearly three years. Iraq has faced an onslaught by the Sunni extremists and their supporters since early this year, and the country continues to be roiled by instability. While providing arms and support to Sunni militants in Syria, Saudi Arabia has denied directly funding or backing the Islamic State group. British officials raised the country’s terror threat level Friday to “severe,” its second-highest level, because of developments in Iraq and Syria, but there was no information to suggest an attack was imminent. The White House has said it does not expect the U.S. to bump up its terrorism threat warning level. Saudi Arabia, a major U.S. ally in the region, has taken an increasingly active role in criticizing the Islamic State group. Earlier this month, the country’s top cleric described the Islamic State group and al-Qaida as Islam’s No. 1 enemy and said that Muslims have been their first victims. State-backed Saudi clerics who once openly called on citizens to fight in Syria can now face steep punishment and the kingdom has threatened to imprison its citizens who fight in Syria and Iraq. Saturday, police in Iraq said a suicide bomber drove his explosivesladen car into an army checkpoint in the town of Youssifiyah, killing 11 people, including four soldiers, and wounding at least 24 people.

there was no longer any real doubt of what he called a Russian “military intervention.” Merkel has spoken regularly with Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin, by telephone during the crisis but has had no success in curbing Russia’s support for the rebels, who had been losing ground in face of a Ukrainian offensive. Now, reinvigorated by new arms and fighters from Russia, the rebels are expanding territory under their control. Barroso said Saturday that he, too, had spoken by telephone with Putin and “urged him to change course” during a conversation Friday.

Merkel said Thursday that Germany still favored a diplomatic solution. However, she said, “we have to note that the situation in the last few days has become more difficult, and worsened.” Since March, she added, EU leaders had said sanctions would be considered if there was an escalation. Her spokesman, Steffan Seisbert, said that Germany would support an extension of economic sanctions because

Forests: Drought, massive wildfires contribute to transformation Unlike pines, Gambel oaks have vast underground root systems that can stretch for miles and sprout multiple plants over wide areas. Many aspens also grow from a single root system. These species often survive fires coniferous trees don’t. In the Black Range District, which includes part of the Silver Fire burn scar, there are no plans to reseed with new ponderosa pines, says Larry Cosper, the Forest Service’s district ranger for that area. “It’s really too dry here to plant trees with any success,” he says.

Continued from Page A-1 Though New Mexico hasn’t seen a similarly large fire this year, due in part to recent rains that have pushed parts of the state out of drought, such blazes have become commonplace here. With so many coniferous trees dying — including ponderosa pines and the official state tree, the piñon — forests in Southern New Mexico, Northern New Mexico and beyond are transforming into new ecosystems people living today haven’t seen before. Credit human-caused overgrowth in our forests, along with drought and the planet’s warming climate, for the shift. In the desert Southwest, an immense amount of tinder sits on top of a drier landscape in a climate that’s warmer than at any time in the past 1,000 years, scientists say. “We can’t stop the fires. We can’t stop the forests from thinning themselves out, because there’s just not enough water to support this biomass,” says Craig Allen. Since the 1980s, the U.S. Geological Survey research ecologist has studied the history of landscapes in the Southwest and how climate change is affecting them. It’s possible that, in the future, more mountain ranges across the Southwest will look like America’s newest national monument, the Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks monument in Doña Ana County, Allen says. Some ponderosa pines and piñon grow in the Organs, particularly around water sources. But more droughttolerant shrubs and grasses cover much of the Organs and other peaks in the national monument around Las Cruces, which by road is about 95 miles southeast of Emory Pass. It’s not a question of whether New Mexico will lose coniferous forests. Up to 18 percent of the Southwest’s forests were lost to wildfire and bark beetle infestations — both issues related to the warming climate — between 1984 and 2006, according to a 2010 study Allen helped author. The question is how many coniferous trees New Mexico is going to lose. Timber overgrowth and ocean weather patterns make the Southwest one of the first regions where the effects of climate change have become observable. With models predicting that the Earth’s temperature will continue to rise during this century, some scientists say the transformation of the Southwest’s forests could foretell what’s in store across the globe for trees — which filter the air, absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen for humans. Pines and other coniferous trees exemplify the American wilderness and are culturally significant in New Mexico — it’s why the piñon is the state tree. Depending on how significant the loss ends up being, Allen says it could affect the functioning of watersheds — areas where water runs into streams and rivers — and carbon sequestration — the process of trees capturing and storing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. It could affect wildlife habitats. There also could be societal effects in areas such as recreation and hunting, and other impacts on communities that are situated in changing forests.

‘It’s like it’s a different world’ Forests are changing in Northern New Mexico, too. A bark beetle infestation a decade ago decimated some pine forests throughout the region. Along the Interstate 25 corridor north of Santa Fe, lands formerly dominated by piñon are today primarily covered in juniper and grass. Then there’s the shift in the Jemez Mountains near Los Alamos. From his office at Bandelier National Monument, Allen has watched and studied a number of fires including 2011’s Las Conchas blaze that burned hot and fast across more than 156,000 acres. Some areas have seen a “fair amount of recovery” since that fire, he says — aspens and oaks growing in middle and upper elevations. But a look across the lower-elevation Dome Wilderness near Bandelier, Allen says, shows how high-severity fires kill everything, including seeds buried in the ground. Much of that wilderness area burned in the Dome Fire of 1996 and was again decimated in the Las Conchas blaze three years ago. “There’s a 30,000-acre hole in what used to be forest and woodland where there’s literally not a live conifer,” Allen says of that area. “And it looks like desert mountains. It’s like it’s a different world.” Those changes illustrate a historic shift. Tree-ring records reveal two mega-droughts in the last 1,000 years — one in the late 1200s and another in the late 1500s. The first drought likely played a significant role in the migration of pre-Puebloan Native Americans to areas along the Rio Grande. The drought in the 1500s, which wasn’t as severe, may have killed a significant percentage of the Southwest’s trees. The current drought is already as severe as the drought of the 1500s. A 2012 study Allen co-authored projected that, based on climate projection models, by 2050 the current drought will be far worse than any in the last 1,000 years. The study’s results predict the transition of many forests worldwide, including those in the Southwestern United States, to landscapes “unfamiliar to modern civilization.”

‘A harbinger’ for the rest of the planet?

Getting away from ‘that Smokey Bear mentality’ There’s no disputing that America’s forests are unnaturally overgrown. Cattle grazing in the 19th century reduced the grasses that helped fires spread. And for decades starting in 1910, federal government policy dictated exterminating all wildfires. Today, scientists understand wildfire as a natural process that thins trees and keeps forests healthy. Because of human intervention, coniferous forests across the Southwest are denser and more overgrown than in the past. If overgrowth and drought were the only factors in the current coniferous die-off, the Southwest’s forests might return to a more natural state. But rising temperatures could make the tree die-off even more extreme. For example, the warming climate has intensified the damage done to trees by bark beetles, which survive milder winters in greater numbers. That means more dead, dry trees ready to burn. Warmer temperatures also make for drier conditions. Warmer air holds more water, effectively sucking it out of trees and the ground. Scientists predict the Earth’s temperature will continue to rise during this century and beyond. All of that means we’ll continue to see blazes like the 2013 Silver Fire in forests across New Mexico and the Southwest. That’s not necessarily bad, according to Doug Cram. Cram focuses on studying how fire is impacting forests, rangelands and riverbanks. The extension fire specialist at New Mexico State University is skeptical that more of New Mexico’s mountain ranges will look like the

“

There’s a 30,000-acre hole in what used to be forest and woodland where there’s literally not a live conifer. And it looks like desert mountains. It’s like it’s a different world.” U.S. Geological Survey research ecologist Craig Allen, on the area burned in 2011’s Las Conchas Fire Organs in the future. He also calls predictions of widespread tree deaths “a bit ivory tower,” saying if the Southwest experienced a dramatic increase in rain, our forests “could look like the rain forest.” Cram’s focus isn’t on what the Southwest’s forests will look like in the future, however. He studies what’s happening today: Forests are burning, and they need to. While “some pretty dramatic changes” are already apparent in New Mexico’s forests, he says what emerges will be “much more resilient to drought, insects and fire.” That was true of forests historically, but not in

the last century or so when humans prevented fires that kept forests healthy. “We need to get away from that Smokey Bear mentality that fire is bad,” Cram says.

The Black Range is transforming It’s difficult to know how severe the tree die-off will be, Allen says. Models that predict the Earth’s continued warming are fairly consistent. But understanding enough about how trees die to create models that

more consistently predict the future is tricky. Many factors affect the death of a single tree, let alone an entire forest. Allen says the Black Range “could look like the Organs by the middle of the century.” In the Black Range, a rocky landscape where yuccas have been growing alongside coniferous trees, a shift is already apparent. Heading north from Emory Pass along a Forest Service trail to the 10,000-foot Hillsboro Peak, it’s easy to envision a future landscape dominated by Gambel oak shrubs and tall aspens. That’s because they’re sprouting in greater numbers than what existed before the fire.

To help in places where society values saving trees, a 2013 study Allen co-authored suggests a shift in water management priorities might be necessary. Instead of focusing only on downstream uses of water for agriculture and cities, the study suggests irrigating forests. Tree thinning, mulching and planting drought-tolerant vegetation are other suggestions for aiding forests during this transition. Such efforts may require “a radical rethinking” of water management, the study states. But it will be important to view forest areas not only for the water they can provide humans, but also as watersheds with trees worth saving. That doesn’t address the larger issue of climate change. If humans don’t “get serious” about curbing greenhouse gas emissions that are warming the planet’s atmosphere, Allen says, climate change will have serious consequences far beyond the Southwestern United States. Trees breathe through pores in their leaves. During droughts, they sometimes close the pores to hold in the water they have. A 2012 study of 226 tree species from 81 sites worldwide found that 70 percent leave their pores open during droughts until they’re close to distress. That’s probably because trees, which compete against each other for sun and other resources, are trying to maximize growth, Allen says. So a temperature increase of a few degrees can have a dramatic impact on trees across the globe. Conifer die-offs like the Southwest’s are also already occurring in western Canada. “Trees everywhere are vulnerable,” Allen says. “It doesn’t take as severe a drought in the Amazon as it does here to kill a tree.” It’s difficult to imagine that today’s forests can survive in places like the desert Southwest, Allen says. “We may be kind of a harbinger of what will happen elsewhere,” he says.

Surplus: N.M. has received more than $25M in gear since 2006 Continued from Page A-1 The program began in the 1990s as part of an initiative to help local law enforcement agencies in drug enforcement efforts. But with two longrunning wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the level of equipment available — including mineresistant, ambush-protected vehicles, or MRAPs — has become increasingly ominous. The program gives local police forces equipment on a permanent loan basis at no cost except for shipping and maintenance. Since 2006, New Mexico has received more than $25 million worth of equipment. Florida, at $252 million, and Alaska, with $117 million, received the most. Texas was next with $93 million worth of equipment, according to an analysis by The New Mexican of Department of Defense data. The New York Times received the raw data through a records request and released it publicly. New Mexico has received 20 MRAPS worth $13.5 million total. Only Texas, Florida, California and Oklahoma received more. New Mexico also has received three helicopters with a combined value of $1.1 million, dozens of Humvees and other armored vehicles worth $3.3 million, and 93 night-vision sniper scopes worth $465,000. But for every piece of military-style equipment, various law enforcement agencies in the state have ordered hundreds of items of the more generic sort, including sleeping bags, tents, cargo vans, generators, all-terrain vehicles, portable buildings and forklifts. One agency even received a 40-inch TV. The state’s Department of Public Safety serves as a liaison between the Pentagon and local police agencies. New Mexico State Police Chief Pete Kassetas said the program saves taxpayers money, allowing agencies, including state police, to use the savings to hire more officers, buy more patrol cars and other priorities. Kassetas said the images coming out of Ferguson sent the wrong message about police and their role as peacekeepers, and served to incite rather than calm the protesters. In New Mexico, he said, the Department of Public Safety doesn’t allow local agencies to order firearms from the 1033 program, except for use in training. “I’m very sensitive on how this equipment is used and when it’s used,” Kassetas said. The state police received an MRAP last September, and the agency has used it twice since then, Kassetas said. Some criminologists question the public safety value of the program and worry that it can make people fear police rather than trust them. Tom Nolan, associate professor of criminology at Merrimack College in Massachusetts, said military vehicles used in local police procedures can create the sense that the city is a war zone. “If I see [an armored vehicle] driving down a residential area, even if it’s to approach a suspect, I’m going to think that I’m not safe,” said Nolan, a 27-year veteran with the Boston Police Department.

Kassetas said law enforcement agencies should take advantage of the program to apply for equipment that can help keep officers safe. “If I order my men to go into harm’s way, I’ll gladly wrap my guys around steel when there’s an active shooting suspect,” he said. He said the state police agency has ordered some Humvees for use in searchand-rescue situations, but “we’re certainly not going to patrol highways in Humvees or MRAPs.” Some of the equipment acquired through the program has never been put to use. In a warehouse on the south side of Santa Fe, a black armored vehicle has sat idly collecting dust for five years. The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office obtained the $200,000 vehicle, known as a Peacekeeper, from the Department of Defense to use in SWAT situations, but the agency’s mechanics were never able to fix the engine, said Capt. Adan Mendoza of the sheriff’s office. Instead, the office’s SWAT team depends on the Santa Fe Police Department’s armored vehicle, a BearCat. Mendoza said the sheriff’s office does not have the money to buy its own armored vehicle, which is why it had applied for the Peacekeeper through the 1033 loan program. Santa Fe police spokeswoman Celina Espinoza said the department, which already had an armored vehicle, ordered a $658,000 MRAP last year, but it is sitting in a warehouse because repairing it is not a high priority. Various law enforcement agencies in Doña Ana County have received about $14.6 million worth of equipment between 2006 and 2014, according to Department of Defense data, including trucks, vans, rucksacks, rifles, combat boots, bayonets, coveralls and one MRAP valued at $733,000. Jameson said the sheriff’s office regularly receives lists of what is available. Recently, the office scored a pallet of hand sanitizer. Deputies, she said, don’t always have access to restrooms, and “that was something we saw a need for.” She said the sheriff’s office has never asked for an MRAP. It would be nice to have a helicopter, she added, “but we couldn’t afford to put a pilot on the payroll.”

Three agencies in San Juan County, including the sheriff’s office, received MRAPs under the 1033 program. San Juan County Sheriff Ken Christesen said, “A lot of this equipment is very needed. We can’t afford to buy armor, but occasionally we have to do some things that require it. Otherwise, we’re going to get people killed.” The vehicles are especially useful in rescue situations, he said. “Let’s say you had a shooting in which someone was wounded and someone had barricaded themselves and you have to get there to render aid. You have to go up with a vehicle that will at least stop a bullet. That’s important. A highpowered rifle will go through a vehicle. And our vests don’t stop that.” An armored vehicle is especially useful in rural San Juan County, Christesen added, because, “You might have to

has armor on it and it will stop bullets.” The San Juan County Sheriff’s Office also has two helicopters obtained through the 1033 program. The department has a certified mechanic to maintain the aircraft and three certified pilots. Christesen said the department does not acquire rifles because “we want to make sure we’re not presenting ourselves like the military.” And the MRAP stays put until there’s a SWAT situation. “We don’t try to go out and project this military style,” Christesen said. “We want to make sure people can talk to us. We have to be responsible and approachable. That’s a big thing.” Contact Anne Constable at 986-3022 or aconstable@ sfnewmexican.com. Contact Uriel Garcia at 986-3062 or ugarcia@sfnewmexican.com.

Mo. town slowly makes a comeback By Jim Salter The Associated Press

FERGUSON, Mo. — The unmistakable signs of healing are beginning to dot Ferguson, even the small area of this St. Louis-area suburb that was the center of attention for three weeks. But those in the community know they’ve got a long way to go. Some merchants say business hasn’t recovered from the aftermath of the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was black and unarmed, by a white Ferguson police officer. Businesses along a stretch of West Florissant Avenue that were victimized by looting are replacing boarded-up windows, with signs out front reading, “Open For Business.” People who have been too scared to take their kids out of the home are milling about once again. A barbecue joint nearly torn apart hasn’t been fully repaired, but an outdoor grill fills the air with a tantalizing smoky aroma. “Look at those signs over there,” Missouri State Highway Patrol Capt. Ron Johnson said as his SUV drove past a row of tidy ranch-style homes, all with “I Love Ferguson” signs in their front yards. “A few days ago those signs would have been ripped up or thrown in a trash can or painted on. And they stand today. “That is definitely symbolic of marching down the road toward

solutions and a better tomorrow.” Ferguson, once a hardly noticed suburban St. Louis community of 21,000, has raised new concerns and questions about how police interact with the black community, as the immediate aftermath of the shooting was looting and rioting met with a police response of tear gas, military-style vehicles and police dogs. The police action in those initial days drew so much criticism that Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon stepped in and appointed Johnson and the highway patrol to take over security on Aug. 14. Johnson, 51, has more at stake in Ferguson’s rebound than a typical police officer — he’s lived just outside of the town most of his life. Many of his friends and acquaintances have been brutally honest: One man told him he has been broken by Brown’s death and the events that followed. Another man who has run a business on West Florissant for two decades said he didn’t know if it was worth it to reopen. “But I went by the store the other day and I saw him fixing it up,” Johnson said. “There’s nothing greater than the will to withstand.” Willpower alone can’t restore normalcy to the shops and restaurants on the avenue. Former Mayor Brian Fletcher started the group “Friends of the City of Ferguson,” which has raised more than $13,000 to help businesses repair the damage.

chairwoman of the AMA committee that submits reimbursement recommendations to Medicare. “The idea is to make sure patients and their families understand the consequences, the pros and cons and options so they can make the best decision for them.” If Medicare covers endof-life counseling, that could profoundly affect the American way of dying, experts said. But the impact would depend on how much doctors are paid, the allowed frequency of conversations, whether psychologists or other non-physicians could conduct them, and whether the conversations must be in person or could include phone calls with long-distance family members. Paying for only one session and completion of advance directives would have limited value, experts said. “This notion that somehow a single conversation and the completion of a document is really an important intervention to the outcome of care is, I think, a legal illusion,” said Dr. Diane E. Meier, director of the Center to Advance Palliative Care. “It has to be a series of recurring conversations over years.” End-of-life planning remains controversial. After Sarah Palin’s “death panel” label killed efforts to include it in

the Affordable Care Act in 2009, Medicare added it to a 2010 regulation, allowing the federal program to cover “voluntary advance care planning” in annual wellness visits. But bowing to political pressure, the Obama administration had Medicare rescind that portion of the regulation. In doing so, Medicare wrote that it had not considered the viewpoints of congressmen and others who opposed it. Politically, the issue was dead. But private insurers, often encouraged by doctors, began taking steps. This year, for example, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan began paying an average of $35 per conversation, face-to-face or by phone, conducted by doctors, nurses and others. It is unclear if advance care planning saves money. But some studies suggest that it reduces hospitalizations because many people prefer to die at home or in hospices, so cost-saving can be an inadvertent result, said Dr. William McDade, president of the Illinois State Medical Society, which asked the AMA to create codes for the discussions. The conversations do not lock people into decisions, and studies show that some change their minds in a crisis.

of the problem. They are also in the process of checking out other neglected properties. They were not only professional and prompt, but also very polite in the face of my rant. I hope this problem will also be addressed by the City Council, as it seems to be in “no one’s job description.” Perhaps under Health and Sanitation? This is a situation that can’t be overcome by individual homeowners alone. I look forward to continuing cooperation between the city and homeowners to alleviate this problem.

It becomes harder and harder to read the newspaper because of all the unpleasant things going on in the world, over which we have little or no control. But when things hit closer to home, it becomes something more. There’s the brouhaha about hazing at The University of New Mexico (“UNM soccer coach suspended for one week over hazing,” Aug. 23). I question the sanctions and how they are being applied. If the coach was complicit in this, a week’s suspension (even without pay) is nothing more than a slap on the wrist. This person should be fired. Then, to stagger the suspensions so the Lobos can still field a team doesn’t seem to be much of a punishment. Those who did the hazing should lose their scholarships, and the team should forfeit a number of games. The punishment should be severe enough to discourage future hazing. Carol Lachman

Stinky situation There is an ongoing problem with an expanding skunk population in the South Capitol neighborhood. The lack of enforcement of the city code on neglected and abandoned or empty homes adds up to ideal shelter for marauding skunks. Despite all the neighbors’ complaints that the “city does nothing about it,” though, I was stunned to find mine were the only two complaints in two years.

A river hero I was very unhappy to read your article saying that the city had stopped Michael Smith’s work on the river cleanup. My husband and I walk our dog alongside the Santa Fe River daily, and we saw him hard at work and told him he was doing a great job. We were very happy to see him removing deadwood, elms, weeds and trash that were

choking good trees and plants. For the city to stop the work because two people called in is ridiculous. The city doesn’t do a good job of keeping the riverside looking good, so why not let Smith do it? I was happy to see the editorial that followed your article saying that Smith deserved support for his work. There was one mistake, though, because he has completed the work from Delgado Street to Paseo de Peralta. He was ready to begin work on the area between Delgado Street and Palace Avenue when he was stopped. That area is in pretty bad shape. Lots of money was spent putting in a new sidewalk, picnic tables, trees and an unnecessary stone-lined acequia, but tall weeds have taken over, so the area looks ugly. Michael Smith could make it all look beautiful. Margaret Werner

Safety first We deeply regret that the letters to the editor suggest that Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center is unsafe. These inaccurate statements dishonor the 1,900 people who work here caring for this community, and they unnecessarily worry patients. I can assure you that hospital administrators respect our nurses and their work. Nurses are a major facet of the patient experience, so we’ll continue to honor their work and highlight them and our other providers in advertising. News stories can’t fully convey the context of a discussion. In reference to my recent quote, my full statement was to reassure that we have a process for patients to share their firsthand experience, allowing us to learn and make improvements. While the nurse’s perspective is important, it’s even more impactful when shared by a patient. Union negotiations are proceeding in good faith, with good intention. We look forward to concluding the negotiations so that improvements in the patient experience become the story. Lillian Montoya

f you live in New Mexico and spend an average amount of time listening to the radio and watching TV, then you’ve surely heard and viewed the attacks from Republican Gov. Susana Martinez’s reelection team criticizing Democratic challenger Gary King for being “unfair to women.” I have to admit the ads sound rather convincing, as many political ads in an election year often do. Earlier this week, I sat down with King’s running mate, Debra Haaland, and asked her about these accusations and whether she had any reservations or doubts about being on the same ticket with King — after all, he’s the guy being portrayed as “paying women less than men” while serving as attorney general here in the state. “You have to read the fine print on a lot of those ads. I hope that the voters of New Mexico do their Harlan research when it comes to all McKosato these accusations that are flying,” said Haaland, a member of the Commentary Pueblo of Laguna. “With respect to Gary King hating women — that’s ludicrous. He does not hate women. “In fact, Susana Martinez is the one who defunded the Commission on the Status of Women, an organization which helped a lot of women deal with domestic violence and was required to help women with [job] training and education which could help their lives and benefit their families,” said Haaland, who has a law degree from The University of New Mexico School of Law. “With the swipe of a pen, Martinez vetoed the funding for that commission,” said Haaland, who serves as chairwoman of the Native American Democratic Caucus of New Mexico and is a member of the Democratic Party of New Mexico’s State Platform and Resolutions Committee. “Additionally, we heard on tape Susana Martinez degrading teachers, [and I am guessing] a vast majority [of teachers] are women. To me, it sounds like Susana Martinez is the one who hates women, not Gary King.” This marks the first time a Native American is running for lieutenant governor in New Mexico. Haaland explained that Native Americans from tribal communities were not allowed to vote in New Mexico until 1948, which “put us a little bit behind the eight-ball.” After working to get out the vote for Democrats for the past 10 years, she wanted to find a way to encourage and inspire more people to exercise their right to vote, and decided to run for office. She explained that last summer she had become “disheartened” with the state’s leadership but felt the Democratic state senator and representative from her district were doing excellent jobs, and she didn’t want to rock the boat. Haaland decided in November, after close consultation with party leaders and close friends, to run for statewide office, and in December had her rollout. She ran unopposed in the state primary elections in early June. Two other candidates filed to run against her but ended up not meeting all the requirements. The state constitution has a provision that asserts that same-party candidates for governor and lieutenant governor must run on the same ticket. “In a simplistic way, [Gary and I] want to help people,” Haaland said. “There’s a stark difference between our campaign and the Susana Martinez campaign. Number one, we care a great deal about the education system. They’re willing to keep going down the same path they’ve been going down for the past three and a half years, which includes excessive testing for students. It’s unfair. It’s not a good system at all. We will not perpetuate something that is so damaging to our school system. “We have a horrible recession [in the state]. New Mexico has lost 6,000 jobs. We’re like a sinkhole, and nothing’s getting better,” she said. “We’re using social media and grass-roots efforts to get our voters out. I have support from pueblos and tribes across the state, and I’m very proud of that fact. I think people are looking forward to having the first Native American in the lieutenant governor’s office and to have Gary King as our next governor.” Harlan McKosato (Sauk/Ioway) is director of NDN Productions.

COMMENTARY: MIKE LOFTIN

Counting the reasons why cops should live in town H omewise is concerned about the recently adopted proposal to increase from 15 miles to 45 miles the limit for police officers to drive their city vehicles home. We feel this change would be a step backward, the equivalent of paying officers to leave town. Homewise believes the city should maintain its focus on helping people to live in Santa Fe, not to leave it. Here are some facts we wish the City Council had considered more heavily in voting to increase the take-home car mileage as part of contract negotiations with the police union. u The added cost of one officer

commuting 90 miles round trip every day of a four-day workweek is about $4,200 annually. This is based on an estimated 23.48 cents per mile for the cost of gas, maintenance and tires (based Mike Loftin on AAA estimates for costs of operating a sedan). If the city has an additional $4,200 per officer to spend, those funds should be spent in a way that benefits the city and advances the city’s goal to create an inclusive community where

Editorial page editor: Inez Russell Gomez, 986-3053, igomez@sfnewmexican.com

local workers can and do live in the community they serve. u The police department aims to replace police vehicles when they reach 100,000 miles. An officer driving 90 miles per day during a four-day workweek will put 18,000 miles on the car in just one year. That means in just one year, the car will have expended 18 percent of its useful life just for commuting, not for active duty. If a replacement vehicle costs $40,000, then the replacement cost of those extra miles is $7,200! Add that to the gas and maintenance, and the total is $11,400 for one year. Does the city want to spend $11,400

per year helping people leave our community? u Some argue that costs of increasing the take-home radius to 45 miles is offset by a change to a four-day workweek (removing one day a week of commuting). But these changes are mutually independent. The change to a four-day workweek is not reliant on allowing longer commutes. u In 2007, Homewise completed a study showing that the Santa Fe economy loses $301.6 million in spending each year from local workers who live out of the community. With this significant an impact, the city should align its

policies toward a solution to this problem by encouraging the workforce to live in Santa Fe. It should not exacerbate the problem by paying people to leave. u Despite ongoing community concern about Santa Fe’s housing affordability, police officers can realistically afford to buy a home. The typical starting salary for a police cadet is just under $40,000 (without overtime), which would allow for a home purchase of $185,000. A review of the Multiple Listing Service shows 56 single-family detached homes at or below $185,000 for sale today. An Officer III earns

Teen pregnancy: There’s a way out

t’s no silver bullet, but an experiment in Colorado shows clearly how to drastically reduce teen pregnancy. Now all that remains to be seen is whether the rest of the country, including New Mexico, has the will to follow suit. Here’s some background on what happened in Colorado. From 2009 to 2013, Colorado experienced a 40 percent decline in births among teenagers, according to the state’s own study. A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study — this one from 2007 and 2012 — showed similar results. Colorado had the highest percentage drop in births among teens ages 15 to 19. In Colorado, the drop was 39 percent compared to 29 percent nationwide, according to a recent Washington Post article. What happened? In 2008, an anonymous donor forked over $23 million, spread over five years, to pay for longterm contraception for teens. No more remembering to take a pill. No more persuading a reluctant boyfriend to use a condom. No more trying to find a “morning after” pill after teenage hormones went wild. No, teenagers could go to a health clinic and obtain an intrauterine device (IUD) or implant for free or at little cost. Before sex. Before pregnancy. Before their lives changed forever. Dependable, don’t-have-to-think-about-it-daily birth control meant that teenagers stopped getting pregnant at the same rate as before. It’s because the Colorado Family Planning Initiative provided some 30,000 long-term contraceptive devices to women through the state’s 68 familyplanning clinics. The results speak for themselves. Long-term birth control is not cheap. The Colorado experiment cost someone $23 million. However, supporting teen moms and their children — often, unintended teen pregnancy can be a sure track to poverty — is hardly inexpensive. According to the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy, the public cost of teen childbearing in New Mexico was $103 million in 2010. Colorado estimates that reducing teen pregnancies saved the state $42.5 million in public funds in 2010 alone, according to the Denver Post. So many conversations in New Mexico center on poverty, preventing poverty and helping families escape poverty. One of the best ways to avoid poverty is for teens to graduate from high school, receive some sort of higher education and find a good-paying job — all before having children. They won’t be poor. Their children won’t be poor. None of that will happen until or unless children stop having children. New Mexico is among states where Medicaid will pay for long-term birth control devices. That means the money is there, at least for many at-risk young women. Now, let’s educate teens about their choices — including delaying sex, always a wise option. And, yes, while long-term birth control devices can prevent pregnancy, they do nothing to prevent sexually transmitted diseases (which is why abstinence works; it prevents pregnancies and disease.) However, one battle at a time. Reducing pregnancies will help individual teenagers, their families and their communities. Fewer unwanted pregnancies means fewer abortions, and that’s important. With New Mexico stuck at 50th in the nation for its teen pregnancy rate, the state has nowhere to go but up.

Caught by surprise

embers of the Santa Fe City Council caught everyone by surprise on Wednesday — voting 5-4 to decriminalize the possession of small amounts of marijuana. They had been scheduled to decide whether to ask Secretary of State Dianna Duran to place the citizens initiative on the ballot for November, or perhaps hold a special election to decide the question. Given that Duran had said the initiative might make the ballot too long come November and the reality that special elections can cost up to $100,000, the council did the right thing by voting. After all, councilors are elected to decide issues. That’s what they did. Now, we’ll see whether Gov. Susana Martinez — who opposes decriminalization of marijuana — goes head-tohead with Santa Fe. Her administration’s position is that the city can’t decriminalize pot without legislative action. Marijuana possession, even small amounts, remains illegal under state statute. The city cites its home-rule status as permission, saying that it doesn’t need legislative sanction to act. All Santa Fe must do, says the city attorney, is make sure it’s not forbidden to change the law. The action likely disappointed some of the 11,000 people who signed the petition calling for decriminalization and making enforcement of the possession of small amounts of marijuana the lowest priority of law enforcement officials. They wanted to vote, and we’re sure opponents of any loosening of the marijuana laws also wanted a say on Election Day. However, the city charter allows the council to act directly on citizen initiatives. We’re pleased the council took a stand — that’s what they are elected to do.

The list of American errors is long: Bush’s ill-conceived and bungled war in Iraq; a failure to deal with the fact that two allies, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, have been major sources and funders of violent Sunni extremism; an inability to seize opportunity in Egypt, home to nearly a quarter of the world’s Arabs, and so demonstrate that Arab societies can evolve out of the radicalizing confrontation of dictatorship and Islamism; a prolonged spate of dithering over the Syrian war during which Obama declared three years ago that “the time has come for President Assad to step aside” without having any plan to achieve that; a lack of resolve in Syria that saw Obama set a red line on the use of chemical weapons only to back away from military force when chemical weapons were used; an inability to see that no one loves an Arab vacuum like jihadi extremists, and a bloody vacuum was precisely what Obama allowed Syria to become; and inattention, until it was too late, to festering sectarian conflict in a broken Iraqi society left to its fate by a complete U.S. withdrawal. The chicken that came home to roost from the Syrian debacle is called the Islamic State. It is not al-Qaida. But, as the journalist Patrick Cockburn has noted, al-Qaida “is an idea rather than an organization, and this has long been the case.” Islamic State grew through U.S. weakness — the setting of objectives and red lines in Syria that proved vacuous. But the deepest U.S. and Western defeat has been ideological. As Hussain said, “If you don’t have a concerted strategy to undermine their narrative, their values, their worldview, you are not going to succeed. Everyone in society has to take on the challenge.”

COMMENTARY: MARK BITTMAN

A drinker’s manifesto: It’s OK in small doses

cross my desk recently came a reissue of the 1964 classic The Drinking Man’s Diet, a cute little volume that maintains that if you drink a bit you’ll lose weight. Counterintuitive, because one of the things we think we know about alcohol is that it provides truly empty calories, which generally speaking cause weight gain (see, for example, soda). With seven calories per gram, alcohol is way more caloric than sugar and other carbs, all of which contain four, and less so than fat (nine), but those in alcohol are metabolized differently, and some studies have shown that moderate drinkers ingesting the same level of calories as nondrinkers (and heavy drinkers) may gain less weight over time. Moderate levels of alcohol may also protect against heart disease. Life is complicated, and drinking for health is a lame rationalization, but drinking itself … well, we do it because we like it. Medical discussions about drinking rarely touch on hangovers, an important consequence for serious drinkers, which I’ve had more times than I’d like to think about. (Although I did swear that my most recent hangover would be my last, and given that that was more than six weeks ago, I’d say I’m doing pretty well.) The point is that if we’re reasonably responsible individuals, these are private matters whose consequences are borne by ourselves. We drink because we want to, not because it’s good for us. Whether you believe that alcohol is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy (a

paraphrase of a quote usually attributed to Ben Franklin) or that God has nothing to do with this, it’s clear that alcohol can bring both joy and pain. This is also true of many other things in life, but with alcohol, many of us forgive the self-indulgence. That’s almost official policy, in one way: A bottle of soda has a nutrition label; a bottle of vodka does not. These are calories you’re probably not counting. (If you want to drink “light,” calorie-wise, drink straight booze rather than mixed drinks, wine or beer.) Still, we feel guilty: Two-thirds of us drink, and many of us either underestimate the amount we do or actually lie about it. In Britain, for example, drinking reported to health professionals accounts for only about 60 percent of the alcohol sold. I lie to my doctors about drinking, because by official standards I drink too much and I don’t want to be scolded. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that men drink too much when we consume 15 “drinks” a week (a drink is a 5-ounce glass of wine, a shot of spirits or a beer); women get to have only eight. (Women generally weigh less than men, and alcohol may have more ill effects on women.) You also drink too much if you consume five drinks within three hours; that’s a binge. And, according to the CDC, one drink is one too many for people younger than 21. Which is absurd, even if it’s the law. The CDC flatly says drinking too much is “dangerous,” which is pretty vague, and can “lead to heart disease, breast cancer, sexually transmitted diseases, unintended pregnancy, fetal alcohol spectrum dis-

orders, sudden infant death syndrome, motor-vehicle crashes, and violence.” Many of these dangerous effects are indirect and can be mitigated: If you don’t have sex or get into a car after drinking, you can’t possibly get pregnant or in a car accident. (One thing about drinking alcohol, though: It can cause bad judgment.) The more direct ones, like heart disease and breast cancer, have so many risk factors that drinking may perhaps be discounted, especially in moderation. And there’s evidence that drinking “the right amount” — which is less than “too much” — can be good for you. But that amount varies wildly from one individual to the next, and for most people the safest amount of alcohol is probably, rationally, zero. So it’s crazy to say, as people do, “I drink red wine because it’s better for you than white,” because mostly people drink to get buzzed, or drunk, because bad judgment is a release or fun or both. Of course there are people who really drink too much, and we should continue to discourage overconsumption, but once again when it comes to public health we fail to prioritize correctly. The CDC says that excessive alcohol consumption causes 88,000 deaths a year and “costs the economy about $224 billion.” Obesity-related illnesses cause somewhere around 112,000 deaths, and cost maybe a trillion dollars. You don’t see the CDC saying that people younger than 21 “drink too much” if they consume a can of soda. But it should. Mark Bittman writes for The New York Times.

aybe we need a simple rule: Don’t use water to generate electricity in the desert. You may have heard that Public Service Company of New Mexico has agreed to close two of the four coal-fired units at the San Juan Generating Station to cut air emissions. This presents an opportunity to move toward clean energy. Yet PNM has chosen to replace the energy primarily with gas, nuclear and coal purchased from entities fleeing the plant. Much has been written about the carbon generation associated with coal production. But there’s another story, and it’s close to our hearts. No one needs to tell anyone living in the Southwest that we must conserve water. If the Public Regulation Commission accepts PNM’s plan, water use will go from 5.4 billion to 5.17 billion gallons a year. This does little to conserve and nothing to address the pollution of our waterways, including the San Juan River. Little discussed is PNM’s ground- and surface-water pollution. Before PNM, the two arroyo systems that converge on the land were dry. All information collected on the groundwater indicates that there was little, if any, water in the sands of these channels. But PNM discharge quickly filled the groundwater system and surface water began to flow, carrying contaminants down the arroyo to the San Juan River. The contamination problem is simple. Coal contains countless contaminants, including mercury, arsenic and lead. In nature, these are contained in small concentrations, buried and isolated. Mining coal exposes these toxins to the forces of nature, and burning coal concentrates them. PNM was required to reduce air pollution, but here’s the dirty secret: Improvements in air quality come at the expense of soil, groundwater and surface water contamination. When PNM installed scrubbers, they were cleaned with water then discharged to the arroyo system. Evaporation ponds were installed for this wastewater, but they leaked: first to groundwater then surface water, and finally to the San Juan River. PNM claims that natural salts are mistaken for company pol-

On PNM, the PRC & water

Operas straying off course everal recent letters deploring productions at The Santa Fe Opera are unfortunate but true: Opera house managers of today are more focused on the bottom line than artistic integrity. To be sure, in this era of artistic philistines, one can be sympathetic: Money is always a problem, and even the venerable Rome Opera House is on Duane the verge of W. Roller closing. On the other hand, integrity is important, and operas that do not respect the music, words or staging of a composer’s original intention, but rather pander to a director’s ego and the ignorance of the audience, set a dangerous precedent. After last year’s misbegotten Grand Duchess, I had hoped for better from The Santa Fe Opera, but this year we have had a production of Mozart’s Impresario that added irrelevant music, changed the words and was a slapstick staging more suited to a Laurel and Hardy film than the opera house. At times the guffawing from the audience drowned out the music. But what would one expect, when operas are advertised as fun and laughter rather than a sublime artistic experience? One might as well go to an amusement park. Then there was Fidelio, perhaps the most important opera of the early 19th century. Richard Wagner said that nothing had made such a profound impression on him as seeing this opera. He is lucky that he did not see it in Santa Fe. Here I saw an opera where directorial concept forced changes in the words (and the seat titles presented a different text from what was sung), and the staging not only failed to conform to the composer’s intention, but was full of irrelevant and distracting action with people running all over the place who had nothing to do with the composer’s intentions. It became difficult to focus on the singing, which, oddly, was what I thought opera was all about. The audience at these operas behaves as if it were at a sporting event, not engaging in a sublime artistic experience. It was unspeakably embarrassing to see the great Greer Grimsley, one of the best singers of our era, get booed by audience members who thought they were booing the opposing football team. He has talents that most cannot imagine — many of us saw him in Seattle last summer — and was by all accounts the strongest singer in an already strong cast. But he was booed! Applause is based on the artistic merits of the performance, not the character of the role being played. How can Santa Fe hope to continue to attract great singers if they come to Santa Fe to be booed? When words, music and staging are changed, what else is left? It is as if the Louvre were to announce that Leonardo really didn’t know what he was doing when he painted the Mona Lisa, and it was going to be repainted to conform to modern values. Modern opera directors believe they know more about Mozart and Beethoven than Mozart and Beethoven knew about themselves. Luckily, the quality of singing and the orchestra at Santa Fe remain outstanding and incredible, but will these be the next to be downgraded? Why have good singers if operas continue to be produced by directors who do not respect anything else of the composers’ intentions? I try to support the opera as much as I can, and I am thrilled to live in a town that has its own internationally recognized opera company. Still, I dread next year.

lution. Yet as the Environmental Protection Agency and the New Mexico Environment Department concluded, the Paul salts would Davis not have gone anywhere if PNM had not introduced water to the system. The discharge water picks up contaminants as it flows through mine spoils and coal ash en route to the San Juan River. PNM has tried to plug the leaks, but with the importation of billions of gallons of water every year, a leak-proof system is impossible. So we return to our rule: Don’t use water to generate electricity in the desert. The biggest pollution problem of all won’t be realized in our lifetimes. It’s the coal mine itself, which is used as a dumping ground for contaminants from chemical processes and coal ash. Today the mine is dry, because it’s de-watered to remove coal. However, the plant won’t exist forever. When activity stops, the mine will fill up with groundwater, and instead of reaching layers of coal sandwiched between nearly impermeable layers of sandstone and shales, it will saturate rubble and coal spoils containing salts from crushed natural rocks and coal ash containing concentrated heavy metals. Who will pay to clean up this toxic soup? The same people who have always paid for PNM’s pollution — the public. So here’s a final rule: If nature has dispersed dangerous chemicals in small concentrations and isolated them from the environment, leave them alone. Does the PRC understand the value of water and the cost of environmental contamination, both external to formal cost analyses? Because we’ll all pay, eventually. Will we pay for sustainable energy now to conserve water and avoid saddling future generations with untold environmental cleanup costs? Paul Davis is a hydrologist and owner of EnviroLogic Inc. He has studied groundwater and surface water associated with the San Juan Generating Station on and off for more than 20 years.

Recycling upgrades would be good for city

eaders responding to The Santa Fe New Mexican article “Report calls for costly changes in recycling and trash services” (Aug. 3) have made the following points: u Residents will be asked to “pay more for less service” (33 percent cost increase over five years, but curbside recycling of glass eliminated). u The cost of the report was excessive. u Some city workers might lose jobs. The full 138-page report is now available on the city’s website. Section 1 of the study is a “cost-of-service” analysis of the current system. It reveals in convincing detail that the $12.96 monthly rate residents now pay for curbside trash and recycling service falls far short (by 33 percent) of paying for the services delivered. This is the situation the city faces if none of the changes made later in the study were to be adopted and the city were to continue its failed recycling program. We repeat, the 33 percent increase has nothing to do with proposed changes in recycling.

The study recommends increasing the residential rate over a five-year period to $17.30 per month to cover the existing shortfall in revenue. By contrast, In Eldorado, where we live, private-hauler-provided curbside trash service and recycling (without glass) costs $25 per month, and in more rural surrounding areas, it can be as high as $40 per month. City dwellers would still have a good deal even if the higher rate schedule were to be adopted. The study makes a number of recommendations to increase recycling as well as to improve operation and maintenance of the city’s fleet of collection trucks. If adopted, the study’s recommendations might save up to $1 million a year (and allow for future residential rate stability or even reduction). The cost of the city’s portion of the study was $200,000 (not “nearly half a million”). We find it a thorough and highly professional product. As the saying goes, “You get what you pay for.” But if this study ends up on the shelf, as so many before it have, then the critics will be proven right.

Yes, if the current two-bin recycling system is replaced by a single large cart picked up by automated side-lifting trucks (like city trash), some jobs will be eliminated. The lost jobs happen to be physically exhausting (running behind the truck) and dangerous (exposure to glass shards). We hope other jobs in either the Public Utilities Department or elsewhere in city government can be found for these workers. But the critics must realize that maintaining unneeded jobs costs taxpayers money and leads to things like the 33 percent rate hike they object to. Finally, the glass issue. Moving to carts for “single-stream recycling” (with or without glass), wherever it has been tried (almost all of our major cities), typically leads to a 50 percent increase in recycling volume and to a 70 percent to 80 percent participation rate (the city’s current rate is 56 percent). The large carts are covered (so can remain outside), easy to move, can receive all the mixed recyclables (except glass) currently recycled in Santa Fe, including all but the largest

cardboard boxes. The study recommends drop-off sites for glass (such as at the county transfer stations) or possibly a paid subscription service for curbside collection of glass from homes and businesses that generate lots of bottles. Many cities are able to include glass in their single-stream cart programs, but unfortunately our aging recycling plant (and Albuquerque’s brand-new one) lack the (expensive) equipment to handle glass. The recycling system recommended in the study is not perfect, but it is better by far than the failed one now in use. We urge critics to take a look at the study and perhaps rethink initial reactions based on incomplete information of both its content and its recommendations. Joe Eigner and Karen Sweeney are secretary and chairwoman of Eldorado/285 Recycles, an all-volunteer recycling/composting/reuse advocacy and implementation group located in the Eldorado area of Santa Fe County. The group’s website is eldorado285recycles.org.

MY VIEW: RACHEL G. MCHUGH

World needs a stronger approach to combat outbreaks

bola is a horrible disease with no known cure. It sparks global concern and fear, but it is often considered a foreign problem. This current international Ebola outbreak highlights the need for recognizing global health as an important part of national public health. Containing an outbreak in a closely conRachel nected, easily G. McHugh traveled and increasingly urban world is difficult. This is made even more difficult by the lack of discussion about global health and the reliance on the reaction of individual nations after an outbreak or health crisis arises. The most common response from nations is to bar the gates, or at least the airports, and focus on keeping the illness and those afflicted out. The public reaction to the two U.S. aid workers being transported is an example of the “shut it out” and “it isn’t our problem” mindset. A response that recognizes and accounts for the link between national public health and security and global health and security would be a more effective way of combating panic, misinformation and the impression of a nation incapable of effectively responding to such an outbreak abroad, much less locally. The Ebola outbreak has global health consequences and is the type of issue that necessitates locally appropriate management at the source of an outbreak. Effective global responses to health concerns, combating outbreaks and potential outbreaks before escalation of the kind currently occurring in Africa, also are an integral part of national and local public health. It is also a practical way of increasing the availability and response capabilities of health workers — understanding contagious disease globally, while expanding capacities to respond from a local perspective. Lack of consideration for the Ebola outbreak and less extreme situations that are actually global health concerns increases fear, misunderstanding and apprehension, while decreasing the effectiveness of response on all levels. It illustrates a weakness in the ability to combat disease globally and nationally. Rachel G. McHugh is a New Mexico freelance writer and analyst and a women’s shelter resident advocate.

MY VIEW: JACOB AMIR

Israel has the right to defend itself against Hamas

t is very important to keep in mind that Hamas is not fighting to end the occupation but to end Israel’s existence. This is true even when there is a cease-fire in the obvious battle. As stated by one of its leaders, Dr. al-Zahar: “Palestine means Palestine in its entirety — from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River. We cannot give up a single inch of it. Therefore, we will not recognize Israeli enemy’s right to a single inch.” The Hamas founding charter states that Hamas’ aim is a war — not only against Israel or Zionism but against

the Jewish people at large, since the Jews, and not merely Israel and Zionism, are the enemies of Islam. The entire Chapter 22 is devoted to detailing the iniquities of the Jews: According to Hamas, the Jews are responsible for the ills of modern society — the French Revolution; the Communist revolution; the establishment of secret associations (Freemasons, Rotary and Lions clubs, B’nai B’rith) designed to help them gain control of the world by secret means. They control the economy, press and television; they are responsible for the outbreak of World War I, which

they initiated in order to destroy the Muslim caliphates (the Ottoman Empire), to get the Balfour Declaration and to set up the League of Nations with the aim of establishing their state. They also initiated World War II in order to make a fortune from selling war materials; they use both capitalism and communism as their agents. That is the reason Hamas is not recognizing Israel and has continued its war of terror against it. Thousands of rockets have been fired from Gaza at Israeli towns and villages aiming to kill as many Israelis as possible. More than 5 million citizens

are under threat. In some places Israelis have only 15 seconds to reach shelter after the alarm sounds. Can one imagine how a mother, who has children at school, feels when the air raid alarm sounds? No country can be expected to tolerate such attacks on its citizens. Israel is no exception. Israel is careful to keep civilian casualties to a minimum but this is hard to do because Hamas deliberately places its weapons, rocket-launching sites and infiltrating tunnels in and below schools, hospitals, mosques and

private homes. Israel is doing all it can to warn civilians to leave before the attack. It uses phone calls, leaflets and warning shots. But Hamas asks people to stay, using them as human shields. The death of noncombatant people in a conflict is always a tragedy. But under international law, the responsibility for the civilian death toll, when combatants hide among civilians, lies with the combatants who hide behind or among civilians. Jacob Amir is a retired physician who lives in Santa Fe and Jerusalem.

rial of that sort is out of the reach of children. If your grandson has been “sexualized” through some medium or experience, then his behavior is more than mere curiosity and merits considerable concern and firm, resolute action on the part of his parents. When all is said and done, if one set of parents — the girl’s, in this case — is upset about these episodes, then that becomes the default position. In that event, the boy’s parents need to make perfectly clear to him that this behavior is not to happen again and make equally clear that if it does, there will be meaningful consequences. They should also require that he apologize to his cousin in front of both sets of parents and promise her that it won’t happen again. Their low rating of the seriousness of these episodes isn’t relevant. They should take this approach out of respect for the girl’s parents. Adults need to stick together in matters of this sort.

The Washington Post

he beginning of the school year can be emotional for any parent, but it is particularly wrenching for Anna Whiston-Donaldson. In 2011, on his second day of seventh grade, her 12-year-old son, Jack, drowned in a flooded and raging creek near their home in Vienna, Va. Whiston-Donaldson worked out her feelings in real time on her blog, An Inch of Gray, a place where she had previously posted funny things her kids said, quips about her marriage, her thrift-store finds and, of course, pictures of her kids on their first day of school. Now, nearly three years after Jack died, she is about to publish a book: Rare Bird, a memoir about his death and her slow emergence from a cloud of shock and grief. “I’d much rather have Jack than a book,” says Whiston-Donaldson in an interview at her home. “But if I’m going to have a book, I want something good to come out of it.” Perhaps, she says, her story will offer help and hope to those in mourning and “soften the hearts” of those who cross their paths. Her message, she says, is universal: “Everyone grieves. Everyone in life is going to experience profound disappointment. We all have the opportunity to walk beside someone in crisis.” Sitting at the table in her sunny kitchen, Whiston-Donaldson is candid and self-deprecating. “I try to be real and honest,” she says of herself and her book, “But I’m not an expert on grief. It’s just my experience.” She turns more tender, her voice softens, when asked about Jack. “He would have been awesome in high school,” she says. In recent months, she has found it especially difficult to watch his friends grow older while Jack stays locked at age 12. In their house, reminders of her son are everywhere. A dresser with his clothes sits in her bedroom; his baseball bat and helmet are in the garage. Her home office offers a snapshot of a creative, nature-loving child — on a table stands a Taj Mahal Lego set he built, on a shelf is a spaghetti jar filled with the cicada shells he collected in 2004. Her book is filled with anecdotes about Jack, but she did not intend it to be a tribute to him. “That wouldn’t be helpful,” she says — to herself, or to her readers. She also understands that some people will be afraid to read her memoir. “Once I had kids, I stopped reading Oprah books, because I just didn’t want to be sad.” Her book is sad. But it is also eloquent and affecting in its self-awareness. This is a “story of a woman who has suffered profound, crushing disappointment, whose plan didn’t pan out, whose heart has been broken by life, and who is wondering if she’s alone in her pain,” Whiston-Donaldson writes in the introduction.

Still struggling with grief The portrait Whiston-Donaldson, 44, draws of her life before the event is one of suburban idyll — a happy marriage to Tim, a patent

lawyer; two healthy children who said their prayers before bed; a fulfilling part-time job at her church bookstore. The day her son died, with the power out from a storm, her children were happily doing their homework by candlelight — a scene so Little House on the Prairie that she felt compelled to share it on Facebook. Then came a knock on the door. Did Jack and his sister, Margaret, then 10, want to come out in the rain and play? They got a “quick ‘Go for it!’ from me,” Whiston-Donaldson writes, and ran outside. “I don’t know how many times I’d told them of the crazy fun my sister and I had tromping through the flooded dips and valleys of our own yard as kids, but I do know I had told them,” she writes. “I wish I had never told them.” The last time she saw them together, her children were walking down their driveway, Jack “still in his school uniform of navy polo and long khaki shorts, arms raised to the sky.” Margaret returned less than an hour later, alone. Whiston-Donaldson says she still doesn’t know exactly what happened. Some of the book’s most harrowing scenes describe her frantic efforts to find her son, racing along the side of the creek in her car with Margaret crying in the back seat, and the immediate aftermath of his death. Even more brutal is her chronicle of the two years following the accident, as she tries to accept her loss. She is unsparing, not least on herself. “I feel a loss of credibility as a mother,” she writes, “a sense of shame and despair hangs over me. Can I still weigh in on parenthood, as a friend and a ‘mommy blogger,’ when I’ve lost my child?” There’s also the realization that tragedy doesn’t undo petty anger — “The sound of Tim’s chewing his cereal makes me want to crawl out of my skin as it always has” — and the acknowledgment

that she can’t stay this way — “Can’t I show him the grace in the little things when he has shown me the grace in the biggest things of all, by not blaming me for letting the kids play in the rain?” She describes the challenges faced by her daughter, who is simultaneously bereft and brave, and the shift in her relationships with her friends and neighbors.

Moving forward Whiston-Donaldson wrote much of the book at a Panera restaurant in a strip mall in Tysons Corner, Va.. She finished in November 2013, a few months after the family moved into a new house about two miles from the spot where Jack’s body was found. “I feel lighter here,” she says, away from Jack’s old friends and the house he grew up in. With the book’s publication comes the realization, she says, tearfully, that “I’m one year farther from being with Jack.” She’s still grieving, she says, but “I feel increasingly less stricken.” For his part, Tim recognizes how valuable writing — both the blog and the book — has been for his wife. “I can be there for her as a husband,” he says, “but I can’t fulfill the role of 1,000 anonymous supporters being there for her on a daily basis.” He has been reading her blog from the start and says it has helped him understand what his wife is going through, even before the accident. As for the book, he says, he has read it once, alone. “Is it hard?” he asks. “Yes.” But, he adds, “the more I go back there, it becomes less hard to talk about.” His wife draws comfort not only from her writing and her community — online and off — but also from her experience and that of her family. “I was raised as a free-range kid and I survived,” she writes in her book, and she is trying to instill that sense of adventure in her daughter, who has gone whitewater rafting with the Girl Scouts. And despite it all, Whiston-Donaldson says, “I still like rain.”

and listening to the music. Blake Ryan plays both of the twins and is able to keep their characters separate. At the same time, he projects the intense connection that twins have between each other. The wardrobe, hairstyles and historical props all contribute to the rich details that create this special period piece. My favorite scene is when Ryan listens and looks at his twin brother’s record album and he does not notice that he looks and sounds exactly like him. This scene is funny because you question why he wouldn’t notice it. It seems so obvious that you can’t help but feel bad

for him. My favorite character is Ryan’s mother, Louise Wade (Ashley Judd), because she is very kind and has a light spirit when you look at her and hear her beautiful voice. You somehow know that she only wants the best for her son. I love the powerful message in this film, which is to follow your dreams. It’s your life, so work hard to fulfill your dreams and it will make you happy. I recommend The Identical for all the music lovers at heart ages 10 to 18. I give this film 4 out of 5 stars as I really enjoyed the music, the story line and the message. The Identical rocks into theaters on Sept. 5.

On Tuesday, the New Mexico National Guard held a ceremony to present Santa Fe resident Georgia Brown with a Bronze Star and five additional combat-related medals on behalf of her father, the late World War II veteran George Ayala. After her father died in 2012, Brown found documentation indicating his eligibility for service medals, but the medals had been lost and she was unaware which awards he had earned. Brown approached U.S. Sen. Tom Udall’s office looking for help, and Udall’s staff worked with the National Personnel Records Center to secure a total of eight medals recognizing Ayala’s military service, including a Bronze Star. Ayala, an Albuquerque native and lifelong resident, joined the Army and served in the Philippines and Japan during World War II as a private first class. Upon his return, he met and married his wife, Martha Trujillo, and they had two children, Georgia and Gene. He worked at both Montezuma Grocery and Dixon Paper Co., and eventually started his own company, Quality Paper and Plastics, along with his wife and son.

El mitote A&E may have pulled its support from popular Western drama Longmire, but thousands of fans are clamoring for its renewal on Twitter with the hashtag #LongliveLongmire. Series stars have also joined the cries for renewal. Lou Diamond Phillips said, “Shocked but sadly not surprised by @AETV decision. An opportunity to find a better fit. Show your support by tweeting #LongLiveLongmire.” Bailey Chase tweeted, “Thanks for all your support. Obviously a surprising decision by @ AETV but #Longmire will find a new home. It’s too good not to #staypositive.” Star Adam Bartely said, “Sad about #Longmire? What can u do? Spread #LongLiveLongmire everywhere. Let’s find a new home! We need your support!” A&E canceled the Western drama after three seasons. The third season generated slightly lower ratings than the prior season. Producers have said they are looking for another studio to pick up Longmire. For the past three seasons, producers have filmed in Northern New Mexico and at Garson Studios at the Santa Fe University of Art and Design. uuu

August rain eases drought By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

New Mexico is looking far less dry now than it did in May, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor. None of the state is in exceptional drought, the worst level possible, and only the northwestern corner of the state and a strip in the bootheel remain in extreme drought. The Drought Monitor ranks areas as being “abnormally dry,” or in drought levels designated as “moderate,” “severe,” “extreme” and “exceptional.” The latest drought map, released Tuesday, shows that a couple of weeks

of moisture have improved the state’s conditions, lifting large swaths out of “extreme” or “severe” drought and into “abnormally dry” to “moderate” drought conditions. The map shows no drought conditions for some small areas in Southern New Mexico. About 10 percent of the state was in exceptional drought at this time last year. By comparison, almost 60 percent of California, including the state’s agricultural Central Valley, one of the nation’s breadbasket regions, is in exceptional drought now. Thanks to August rains, most of the state’s reservoirs are faring far better

than they did last year at this time. But a few of the northern lakes, such as Heron, continue to struggle. Heron reservoir levels measured 19 percent of the lake’s capacity and 23 percent of its long-term average. Forecasters, meanwhile, are predicting a warmer and drier period in New Mexico through the Labor Day weekend. Santa Fe will feel temperatures back in the mid-80s, according to the National Weather Service in Albuquerque. The central Rio Grande Valley and the eastern half of the state will swelter under 90-degree-plus temperatures.

Tech push fills grade school with iPads District’s goal is to put digital devices ‘in every kid’s hands’ By Robert Nott The New Mexican

Tim Abeyta’s fifth-grade students love their iPads. The Ramirez Thomas Elementary School teacher has been working with them in his classroom for two years and says his students use them to read, look up words, take quizzes and download math problems. Not, of course, to look up the answers during tests. “It has increased engagement with the kids,” he said. Whether that will pay off in academic improvement down the line remains unclear to Abeyta: “We want to get a device in every kid’s hands, but … I don’t know what the measure of success will look like in every classroom.” Next week, about 250 Ramirez Thomas Elementary School students in grades 3-5 will receive iPads, one of the first steps in the district’s $55 million, five-year plan to provide every one of its 14,000 students with a digital device. Ramirez Thomas’ former principal, Robin Noble, used federal “turnaround” money to purchase a few iPads for students, which is how Abeyta got an early start. Current Principal Vanessa Romero said it’s great to see kids read books online and use iPads for research. “Everyone here is very savvy with technology, [and] our school culture is collaborative, so this makes sense,” she said. A similar plan has come under scrutiny in Los Angeles recently. Last week, the district

arguerite Wilson sliced into a Colorado-grown peach at her fruit stand in Santa Fe on a recent Saturday morning and handed it to a visitor. If a perfect autumn day had a taste, it would be like that peach, a burst of sweet lightness and full-bodied flavor that lingers on the tongue. “A great peach is like a great bottle of wine,” said Wilson’s friend Natalie Walden as she helped unload fruit boxes. “You bite into it, and it tastes like a bit of heaven.” Boxes of juicy Red Havens, Blazing Stars, Lorings, Rosas and Sierra Rich peaches were neatly stacked on tables under an awning at Rachel’s Corner. “It was a bumper crop of peaches this year,” Wilson said.

People who shop at the produce stand tend to talk about the fruit and Wilson with something akin to reverence. They share recipes and talk about ways to can, freeze or just eat the fruit. Her regulars, including several local Santa Fe chefs, know it required a committed effort for Wilson to get this produce to Rachel’s Corner. Sylvia Johnson, a caterer, dropped by that Saturday morning. She was buying up peaches to make chutney for the holidays. “All the extra effort she goes to just to bring this fruit from the best growers,” Johnson said. “It’s just fabulous to have

In brief Organizers: 90th Zozobra burning drew record crowd The 90th annual burning of Zozobra drew more spectators than ever Friday, though a final tally won’t be available until after the holiday weekend, the event chairman says. “What we can tell you is that we had a record crowd,” said Ray Sandoval, Zozobra event committee chairman for the Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe. Last year’s event drew about 31,000 people, according to the club. Sandoval said he could not immediately say how many more were at this year’s burning of Zozobra because tickets were sold until the close of business Friday. Those numbers cannot be computed by the sales outlets until Tuesday because of the long holi-

Doña Ana treasurer accused of soliciting worker for sex

Police: One man dead in Albuquerque shooting

LAS CRUCES — Doña Ana County commissioners are calling on the county treasurer to resign following a complaint he solicited an employee for sex. Commissioners on Friday unanimously voted to censure county Treasurer David Gutierrez, who was not present at the meeting. Gutierrez declined to say if he will resign when asked by the Las Cruces Sun-News. According to the complaint made by a female employee, she accompanied Gutierrez on a routine trip to the bank Aug. 18. She says Gutierrez asked if she would spend a couple hours at a hotel with him in exchange for $1,000. Gutierrez later confirmed the solicitation to

Foundation aims to ease kids’ health care costs

Staff and wire reports

Talkative 9-year-old Rachel gladly shares her story about living with scoliosis. In an online video, she explains that she was born with her ribs fused together, which crushed her lungs and led to all-night coughing fits. And Marisa, 15, talks just as openly about spina bifida, the birth defect that rendered her legs so wobbly that she now plays softball and basketball seated in a wheelchair. These girls share more in common than being born with physical problems that have afflicted their childhoods and have strained their parents’ finances. Both also have benefited from a grant program designed to help families with insurance pay the added costs of extraordinary care and equipment for their children. And neither girl is from New Mexico. New Mexicans have been slow to accept the help of the UnitedHealthcare Children’s Foundation. Of the 7,500 grants

Costs: Few families from N.M. apply Continued from Page C-1 worth $23 million awarded nationally since 2007, families in the state have received only about $10,000, according to the foundation. “Since the program has been in effect, only five New Mexico families have received grants,” said UnitedHealthcare spokeswoman Kristen Hellmer. Under the grant program’s guidelines, parents with commercial health insurance — regardless of which company insures them — are eligible to apply for up to $5,000 per child per year with a lifetime maximum of $10,000 per child. “That’s a big help for someone whose child is sick or whose child needs extra services or equipment in the home,” Hellmer said. To qualify, families must have a child 16 or younger with extraordinary medical needs and must meet income requirements. According to online testimonials from families who’ve received the grants, many expected their applications to be denied but were gratefully surprised when they were approved. “The process is thorough, but it’s not difficult to get through,” said Matt Peterson, president of the UnitedHealthcare Children’s Foundation. “Families that do go through the process of application have a very high chance of getting funded.” Applying takes about 15 minutes, Hellmer said, and can be done online at www.uhccf.org/ apply. There is no deadline to apply. The reason the grants have helped so few New Mexico families is because they rarely

apply, Hellmer said. “It’s just a matter of awareness right now,” she said. “That’s why we’re hoping to see more interest from families in New Mexico,” Hellmer said. “We would definitely love to see more New Mexico families apply for this.” Physical therapy, hearing aids and wheelchairs are just a few examples of how the grants can be used. The grants provided Rachel’s family with more than $9,000. Even though she’s covered by her parents’ insurance, the expense of the 17 surgeries she has endured during her short life exceeds what the family’s insurer will pay. The grants helped pay for surgeons to insert prosthetic titanium ribs that will expand as Rachel grows to limit constriction on her lungs. More operations loom so Rachel’s metal ribs can keep pace with the rest of her body as she grows. The grants to Marisa’s family paid for wheelchairs that enable her to keep playing sports. Otherwise, the wilting muscles in her legs would threaten to permanently sideline her. “Me walking on a flat surface is like somebody without a disability walking up a hill with a bag of rocks on their back,” Marisa said in her online video. Hellmer said she’s sure the grant program could similarly lighten the loads for more New Mexico families and their children, if only they apply.

IN LOVING MEMORY JOYCE GAIL EASTWOOD

At age 80, Joyce Gail Eastwood passed away on August 21, 2014. Born in Chicago, she always celebrated life with a veracious and exuberant energy. She was a Member of the Order of the Eastern Star in fellowship with her former spouse, who was a 33rd degree in the Masonic Lodge.

Her loving Spirit shall always live on in the hearts of her friends and family. A celebration of her life was held in Florida by her surviving sister. Joyce wished that her ashes be spread at sea, amongst a spread of flower leis. Mom loved the beauty and serenity of Hawaii while living there during its territorial and statehood days. She always held the fondest of memories of that paradise, and as such, will be laid to rest in the hands of God during a chanting of Waimaka o ka Lani (a Hawaiian proverb which translates to "the Heavens cry when a loved one passes"). We shall always miss the love of our mother and are so thankful for the love of life found in knowing and sharing her life with us. Her son in Santa Fe wishes to most sincerely thank all of the Earth angels that intimately, dearly and professionally cared for Joyce. Heartfelt appreciations are sent to Donna and the staff at Casa Real, the Emergency Care providers at Christus St. Vincent, the many residents at Dos Santos that knew her over the years, and especially to Carol and Nancy from Amber Care for their consistent loving care and support. Most of all, appreciation to her sister Joan for providing the greatest moral support and love that a person could ever desire from a family member. DR. LOIS KATHERINE VISCOLI

HENRY P MCKINLEY January 1, 1929 - August 12, 2014 Henry P McKinley passed from this world to God’s hands on August 12, 2014 surrounded by friends and family after being sick for several months. He is survived by his wife Margaret (Peg), son Ward McKinley and predeceased by his son Forrest McKinley , brother Wayne and sister Barbara. He is also survived by 3 stepchildren, two grandchildren, two step grandchildren and numerous cousins. Henry was born in Lynn, Massachusetts and when very young was brought out west by his parents ending up at the Ghost Ranch near Abiqui, New Mexico. He lived many years of his youth on the Ghost Ranch before attending New Mexico Military Institute, the University of Arizona and graduating with an Agriculture degree from what is now New Mexico State University. He served in Korea during the war where he took his rope to practice and teach other soldiers how to rope a dummy. When he returned after Korea he worked jobs in northern New Mexico and later began a career in Range Management working for the US Bureau of Land Management on southwest New Mexico and later moved on to be a Range Manager for the Bureau of Indian Affairs in northern New Mexico. He has been working his own cattle for over 50 years having had several ranches, the latest being Rancho Viejo on the south side of Santa Fe. Henry was a cowboy’s cowboy. He was never far from his rope and loved to teach anybody who wanted to learn how to rope. Henry’s idea of a perfect birthday, his being January 1, was to be able to rope if the arena wasn’t snowed it. He trained his own roping horses and trained horses for others. Henry won numerous championships and buckles for roping events over the years. He was a member of the New Mexico Old Timers Rodeo Association. His love of roping led him to help begin and support the Deaf Rodeo Association. He was very involved in that organization as he had a multitude of friends in the deaf community due to his son Forrest becoming deaf as a child due to measles. Every year Henry allowed many folks to help at his gathering and branding on Ranch Viejo. Lots of folks learned how to work as a ground crew member during branding. Henry would mentor you and make sure you knew what you were doing wrong while he was at it. These branding became famous events among the Santa Fe area with more people attending over the years than can be counted. After the brandings his wife Margaret would feed everyone with her well-known and enjoyed food. In later he and Margaret brought in a chuck wagon cook (Carl) to provide the vittles. Everyone who attended has favorite stories of these brandings. Henry also enjoyed hunting with a bow and arrow. If you visited Henry you were just as likely to pick a bow for a ’stump shoot’ as to pick up a rope. He taught a lot of kids and adults archery and if you looked close you could see arrow holes in his hat that he would throw in the air as a target for fledgling archers. Henry will be sorely missed by hundreds who he helped and befriended as he is one of the last real old-time cowboys left. In lieu of flowers please remember Henry through is favorite organizations, the New Mexico School for the Deaf and also a program for combat veterans, Horses for Heroes at www.horsesforheroes.org. A memorial will be held at Henry’s home arena, 13B Bonanza Creek Rd., Santa Fe, N.M. on Sept. 20th at 10:30 a.m. JOSE "PAUL" GARCIA Jose "Paul" Garcia , 78, Resident of Santa Fe, New Mexico died quietly at his home in the Torreon neighborhood surrounded by his four daughters on August 26, 2014. Jose was born in Rowe, New Mexico May 20, 1936. Jose referred to Rowe as "The Cultural Center of the Universe." Jose was preceded in death by his parents, Roman Garcia and Sofia H. Garcia, two siblings Julian Garcia and Johnny Garcia. Jose is survived by his Aunt Angie Vigil, siblings Albert (Ersenia) Herrera, Viola Garcia Serrano, Jenifer Garcia DeVolder, Roman Garcia Jr., Amelia (Tony) Lucero and Vina (Les) Thill and his friend and mother to his children, Antonia Nuanes Pineda.

Fiesta de Santa Fe

Bienvenidos! “Fiestas de Santa Fe is the oldest continuous celebration in the country. It celebrates the culture and history of our beautiful city and provides a chance to rejoice in our diverse cultures as one community. This year we have so much to celebrate. Every day we are working to make this a better place for generations to come. Fiestas is a chance to unite and enjoy ourselves together. My family has made it a tradition to participate in Fiestas; my father, George Gonzales, served as Don Diego de Vargas in 1961 and I portrayed the role in 1989. Today I carry on the tradition by celebrating with my children. ¡Que viva la Fiesta!”

Dear Santa Fe Citizens and Guests The Santa Fe Fiesta came about by a promise made by Don Diego de Vargas to the Virgin Mary in 1692. We celebrate the Fiesta each year as a fulfillment of that promise. I encourage everyone to visit our Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi where many of the Fiesta activities are celebrated. Let us remember that the origin of Fiesta is based on a religious foundation! Que viva la Fiesta! Sincerely yours in the Risen Lord, Most Rev. Michael J. Sheehan Archbishop of Santa Fe

A Match Made in Heaven Santa Fe couple brought together by Faith and Fiesta by Arnold Vigil The Bachelor on the Santa Fe Plaza? Patooey! … Match.com? Fuggedaboudit! … Your roommate’s cousin from Detroit? Take a hike! … La Fiesta de Santa Fe? BINGO!!! One hardly thinks of the centuriesold La Fiesta de Santa Fe as the optimal matchmaking service, but the event and its related yearlong activities served as exactly that for at least one Santa Fe couple with family roots that go back just as far, if not further. Danielle Renee Tennyson de Chavez y Romero was in the process of running for Santa Fe’s fiesta queen in the spring of 2010 when a tall, young gentleman serving in the cuadrilla (the staff of Don Diego de Vargas) caught her eye amongst the numerous young men participating in the pageant. She eventually went on to win the queen role, but that wasn’t the only prize she took -- she also landed a husband in the process and more recently gave birth to a beautiful baby daughter. “I remember telling my mom, ‘That girl up there is very beautiful, I hope she wins!’” remembers the 30-year-old Tennyson, who works in the City of Santa Fe’s finance department. “Then a year-and-a-half later we were engaged.” There’s no doubt that all the eyes of the pageant members and the public, especially all of the young men, were on Danielle. But the then 23-year-old admits that her own eyes often returned to John who stood tall as a soldado on the staff of De Vargas (portrayed that year by Tennyson’s brother-in-law Manuel Garcia). “John was, of course, very handsome,” says Danielle, a 27-year-old employee of the Santa Fe County Assessor’s Office. “I think he had his eye on me on the competition night. It turned into a long, summer romance.” The couple continued to date from that springtime competition, throughout the 2010 La Fiesta de Santa Fe in the fall, up until some very special fireworks illuminated the sky

on Independence Day 2013, when they were married. And just more than a year later in late July, their first child, Isabella María, arrived on the scene. The new parents said they hope that their daughter will continue their own and respective families’ fiesta traditions. Danielle first served as a page on the fiesta queen’s court when she was in elementary school and her aunt, Linda Esquibel de Romero was a fiesta queen back in the late1970s. Danielle’s mother, Anna Chavez de Romero, also served as a princesa during fiesta, and cousin Sara Maldonado de Esquibel served as a princesa on her own court in 2010. John, who is currently on the Caballeros de Vargas staff, said his father John and Danielle Tennyson with daughter Isabella.

Keeping Faith Alive Through Fashion 79th Annual Exhibicíon de Modas y Merienda: Fashion in Santa Fe from 1886 to the 1950s By Kay Lockridge

As La Sociedad Folklorica looks forward to its 80 birthday next year, Edward Gonzales remembers the fifth year of the organization’s Exhibicíon de Modas y Merienda — a fashion show followed by afternoon tea — during the 1940 Fiesta de Santa Fe. “I was dragged to the [show],” remembers the retired State Engineer’s Office employee, who was then five years old. “My mother [former New Mexico Secretary of State Elizabeth Fayette Gonzales] and sister [Cecilia Teresa Gonzales] put a little dress outfit on me, and there I was on stage at Sena Plaza. I guess I did OK, because people clapped for me. “We also rode on a float created by the organization for Fiesta, and that was a lot of fun. I wore my cowboy outfit — hat, shirt, jeans and boots — and really enjoyed the parade.” Gonzales recalls that Fiesta was “a lot bigger deal among locals then; they participated much more, dressing in Fiesta attire, and supported all those who put Fiesta together. La Sociedad Folklorica was only five years old then, like me, but the [Hispanic] women of Santa Fe wanted to make sure our culture, history and faith would never be forgotten.” Fiesta itself was officially created in 1712 by Spanish proclamation to honor the vow made by Spanish Territorial Governor General Don Diego de Vargas upon his re-entry into Santa Fe in 1692 after the successful Indian Pueblo Revolt of 1680 and subsequent reconquest of Northern New Mexico by 1698. De Vargas had brought with him a 31-inch wooden statue of Mary, mother of Christ, which had been carved from a willow tree in Spain early in the 17th century and first brought to Santa Fe by Franciscan missionaries in 1625. Franciscans also took the statue with them in the 1680 retreat. Upon his return to Santa Fe, de Vargas named the statue La Conquistadora, Our Lady of the Conquest. While this name stuck, it has been translated more recently as Our Lady of Peace or Our Lady of Conquering Love. The original Fiesta began with a procession honoring La Conquistadora, followed by vespers, Mass and merriment. The first portrayal of de Vargas occurred in 1910, while the figure of La Reina, Queen of Fiesta, was introduced in the 1920s in an effort to acknowledge the importance that women, in addition to the mother of Jesus, have in the Roman Catholic faith. An Indian Princess subsequently was introduced to play a significant role in Fiesta, recognizing important players in

this historical drama. La Sociedad came along in 1935, when Cleofas Martinez y Jaramillo began a movement to, according to the organization’s mission statement, “collect, preserve and pass on the knowledge of the customs and traditions of our Spanish ancestors (some centuries old) to younger generations and to the general public.” At the time of La Sociedad’s founding, Spanish colonial clothing, in particular, was being swept into the dustbin of history. Gathering together clothes long packed away and forgotten down through the generations, Jaramillo and a handful of Santa Fe women presented the first Exhibicíon de Modas y Merienda at the New Mexico Museum of Art, now the Museum of Fine Arts, just off the Santa Fe Plaza. By 1940, when Gonzales appeared in the show, it had moved to the Sena Plaza. The Sena family also had contributed much of the original clothing for the fashion show. The annual event has been held at the James A. Little Theater for the past 10 years, says Gloria Kahn, president of La Sociedad Folklorica. This year’s fashion show has the theme Fashion in Santa Fe from 1886 to the 1950s and will feature the oldest preserved

dress in the organization’s collection. “Can you imagine a dress surviving since 1886, when it was worn regularly at the time?” asks Pauline Duran, Merienda co-chair, who shares with Pat Lopez the many duties surrounding the afternoon tea, which follows the fashion show. Ruth Ortega, who oversees the fashion show, including selecting the clothing and models, says the event is “a treasure for all of Santa Fe … locals, visitors and tourists.” The actual lineup is a surprise to spectators every year, with women, men and children parading the runway as Ortega announces the fashions. The show begins with the introduction of this year’s La Reina, Carmelita Roybal, who is accompanied by a Marachi group and will remain on the stage as she is acknowledged with a curtsy by each model. As many as 68 women, children and men will model the carefully preserved, donated clothing, which numbers 60 to 70 pieces, stored year-round in a dark, climate-controlled space to keep the garments safe from dust, sunlight and insects. La Sociedad members maintain the inventory and reinspect it before it is modeled. Among the clothing are five wedding dresses and one Army uniform from the late 19th century, as well as four pieces from the Romero-Sena trousseau of 1886. The latter came to Los Lunas by railroad from a department store in Kansas City, Missouri. Members and their families have first dibs on modeling assignments, while non-members may volunteer next. Often, Duran says, models become members after a few years. Sociedad members make necessary repairs to the selected items, including rehemming and reinforcing stitching as needed. No outfit ever is cut down or shortened. If a donated piece is beyond repair, the fabric is saved for possible use in maintaining other garments. Some pieces used in the show may have been donated only for the day and will be returned to the owners. While Edward Gonzales no longer serves as a model for the show, his wife, Pat Gonzales y Gonzales, will take to the stage this year as she has every year since 1961. Gonzales y Gonzales is a longtime member of La Sociedad Folklorica and is a past president of the organization. She notes that while membership in the Sociedad is limited to women, male partners and friends play a very important role in and for the organization. “They do the hard jobs, such as building floats, setting up scenery and decorations and carrying around tables and chairs. In fact, we call them associates, although that’s not official,” Gonzales y Gonzales explains. “There are only 27 members of La Sociedad Folklorica now,” Kahn says, and the group is seeking new members to build the complement of the official number of 40. “We encourage younger women, particularly, to join us,” she adds. Kahn, Duran, Ortega and Gonzales y Gonzales agree that, while the members work very hard to produce programs at El Rancho de Las Golondrinas, the public schools and other venues throughout the year, as well as Exhibicíon de Modas y Merienda for Fiesta, they also truly enjoy their time together. “There’s always something going on, in addition to our monthly meetings with speakers, and we enjoy each other’s company,” Kahn says. “In fact, it’s downright fun to be a part of something that’s both important in historical terms and relevant to today’s society.” She urges those visiting the fashion show and tea to talk with members about programs and membership.

¡Que Viva Las Desﬁles de La Fiesta! by Arnold Vigil

Parades are a heralded spectacle in Santa Fe. During the Colonial Period, residents witnessed parades of carretas (open wagons or carts), colonistas and livestock regularly making their way into the Capital City from Mexico after an arduous journey along El Camino Real. The carretas were replaced by parades of covered wagons pushing west from Missouri on the Santa Fe Trail in the 1800s. Steam-powered locomotives soon replaced the wagons as they paraded on steel rails into Santa Fe, ushering in new goods, technologies, people and prosperity; and not long thereafter, automobiles joined the mix, changing the face of American transportation. These steady advancements blessed this city with quite a multicultural mix from which to draw, and today’s parades morphed from necessary means of transportation into nostalgic journeys that pay homage to diverse celebrations — from rodeos to classic automobiles to Independence to sexual orientation to the historical Fiesta de Santa Fe. By the time Fiesta events start next weekend, Zozobra’s ashes will already be ice cold, and fiesta revelers will be extra hungry for the next round of zaniness, hoopla and tradition. The pageantry begins on Saturday, Sept. 6, at 9 a.m. with the Desfile de los Niños, or Children’s Pet Parade, followed on Sunday at 1 p.m. by the Desfile de la Gente, or Historical/Hysterical Parade, followed later in the day by the Candlelight Procession to the Cross of the Martyrs at 7 p.m. Bernadette Williams probably holds the record for participating in the Pet Parade, with what she estimates is as many as 45 times — 32 of those consecutively. Her first parade came when her last name was Anton and she was a first- or second-grader. Williams remembers that kids would just grab their pets and start walking in the parade, unlike today’s requirement that children be accompanied by adults. “They didn’t care, man. We just had to go find [our parents] when it was over.” The 60-year-old Williams and her annual themed entourages of kids, pets and adults have won Nambé bowls, plaques, paper certificates, gift certificates, and, when there wasn’t money for awards, just plain old verbal recognition. Her themes have included Noah’s Ark, King of Dogsville, Jardín de Mariposa (Butterfly Garden), Old Lady in the Shoe, Fish Bowl, and Willie Wonka and the Tortilla Factory. She guards her themes like a top-secret recipe until the parade starts.

“I’ve walked with my own brothers and sisters, my own children and grandchildren, my friends’ children and grandchildren, and even my friends’ greatgrandchildren,” she laughs. “When school starts, people start calling me, wanting their kids and pets to be part of our group. I’ll usually tell them, ‘Fine, just make sure they show up dressed like a monkey.’” The Desfile de la Gente never fails to delight or surprise. Fiesta-goers might remember back in the 1980s when a group of city leaders reportedly were spotted atop a float drinking beer from a not- PHOTO: JANE PHILLIPS so-well-hidden keg, one of them even forgoing the cup and indulging right from the tap. Adelina Ortiz de Hill remembers back in the 1930s and ’40s that the event was actually two parades held on separate days, one serious with historical overtones and the other holding back no punches, with participants making fun of leaders, as well as addressing controversial issues. The 85-year-old Ortiz de Hill said she was raised in Santa Fe but went to live in California for 20 years beginning in the 1950s, and when she returned the two parades had been combined. “Fiesta was longer and the Hysterical Parade was the last one on Sunday, before the Candlelight Procession closed everything on the night of Labor Day,” Ortiz de Hill says. “[The Hysterical] always had satires and some of them were pretty vulgar.” There were also floats with melodramatic themes, accommodating anyone who wanted to poke fun at someone. Entertainers performed on the roof of La Fonda, and people could climb on the roof to the watch the parades. Ortiz de Hill says that even though there aren’t all the bells and whistles that make the other parades stand out,

the Candlelight Procession to the Cross of the Martyrs after the Thanksgiving Mass in the Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi is just as impressive. The procession, which honors clergy killed during the 1680 Pueblo Revolt, used to culminate at the old concrete Cross of the Martyrs off the Old Taos Highway and Rosario Boulevard, she says. “It really captures the spirit of Santa Fe.” “There were no homes there back then, but as more houses appeared they started to block it off and complain about it,” Ortiz de Hill laughs. “It was a bigger event back then, when Santa Fe was smaller and almost totally Catholic. They turned off all the neon lights downtown.” She says the new metal cross on Fort Marcy Hill overlooking Paseo de Peralta was built on property purchased by the city during the administration the late Mayor Louis Montaño in the early ’80s. “It was kind of a mission of his.” For more information, see calendar listings or visit www. santafefiesta.org

days and Fridays, local chefs and longtime customers just show up at her house to buy fruit. On Saturdays, she hauls the fruit over to Rachel’s Corner at St. Francis Drive and East Alameda Street to sell from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. And on Sundays, she sets up at The Flea at The Downs at Santa Fe. She sells by the box or by the pound. Her prices are comparable to organic produce at Whole Foods or the Santa Fe Farmers Market — she can’t sell there because her fruit isn’t grown in New Mexico. And judging by the steady stream of people who turned out on a recent Saturday morning, her customers think the produce is worth the price. Sandra Graham is one of the regulars at Rachel’s Corner and something of a peach expert. If, for some reason, Wilson is gone by the time she gets there, “I’ll drive to her house,” Graham said with a laugh. “I have very high peach standards.” Perfect peaches are a fine balance of sun and water, Graham said. “On the whole, you would rather have more sun and less moisture.” “I always think I’m going to make a pie,” Graham said as she walked away with several peaches. “but I end up eating them.” Wilson’s list of regular restaurants that buy her seasonal Colorado fruits includes Harry’s Road-

house, Cafe Pasqual’s, Tune-Up Cafe and Mu Du Noodles. More are turning up all the time, finding her the old-fashioned way — through word of mouth. Wilson was born in Colorado and grew up in Nebraska. Her life has the eclectic variety of the fruit she sells. She was a philosophy major at Vassar College in New York and then dropped out to work as a ski instructor for a year. She helped start a successful fruit stand in Boulder, Colo., and then moved to Santa Fe in 1989. Along with selling fruit, she’s long been a fiber artist, creating stunning quilts, many with fruit motifs. A recent series was inspired by Navajo rug weavings. The precision of sewing cloth strips into complex quilts led her to study Vaastu principles from East India. This 10,000-year-old science of architecture uses precise mathematical formulas to design living spaces. Her house was designed around Vaastu principles and was completed in 2009. Like quilts, Vaastu “begins with a central square,” she wrote on her website, margueritewilson.com. Contact Staci Matlock at 986-3055 or smatlock@ sfnewmexican.com.

School: Teachers to receive training on how to use devices Continued from Page C-1 suspended a contract with Apple to provide iPads to all of its 620,000 students at a cost of more than $1 billion. The action came on the heels of questions raised about the relationship between top district employees and two vendors, Apple and Pearson, an educational services company that is providing the curriculum on the devices. An internal report released criticized the bidding process. Santa Fe school officials say there are no such problems with the district’s digital plan. Chief Financial Officer Carl Gruenler, who oversees it, said Los Angeles moved too far, too fast. “They worked through a huge implementation plan very rapidly. That’s not our plan at all,” he said. Santa Fe also is contracting with Apple and Pearson, as well IT Connect Inc., a local company that will provide hardware, software and infrastructure support. Gruenler said there is no conflict-of-interest involving those contractors and district personnel. The district’s plan calls for implementing the technological infrastructure gradually, at a pace of about six or seven schools per year. The other schools receiving iPads this year include the new El Camino Real Academy and Nina Otero Community School, the renovated Atalaya Elementary School and Ortiz Middle School, although not every child will get his or her own tablet. Teachers will receive training on how to use the devices in classrooms. The district plans to hire digital coaches to work with them. It is preparing to put out a request for proposals since, under state law, the district can’t hire its own employees to do this job, Gruenler said. He said SFPS’s plan will allow the district to spot problems and alter the rollout, if necessary.

Authorities said 37-year-old Lisa Springer was arrested this week and was charged with battery against a household member.

The school board voted 3-2 last February to impose a property tax to raise the $55 million needed for the program. The state constitution allows school districts to do this without voter approval. About 34 percent of the money will pay for the technological infrastructure in 30 schools. Some school board members are concerned about giving the devices to students before third grade, and Romero said that conversation is continuing. “At what age do you start introducing technology to instruct?”she asked. Starting in late October at Ramirez Thomas, she said, four classes of first- and secondgraders will share one iPad cart, a locked mobile storage and charging unit that contains about 25 iPads. Gruenler said the new technology also is necessary for the district to adapt to new standardized tests through the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Career — part of the new Common Core State Standards that New Mexico, as well as about 45 other states, are adopting.

School board member Glenn Wikle, one of two who voted against the technology bond last February, said in an email Thursday that he still believes the district is moving too fast. Teachers are still learning about the new PARCC tests, which will replace New Mexico’s Standards Based Assessments, and he would like to see them postponed at least a year. Earlier this month, the school board approved a resolution asking the Legislature to support a two-year delay in implementing them. Gruenler said the district is providing the needed infrastructure and training, and there are few problems with either the digital plan or the new tests.“We are evaluating every step of the way and adjusting and listening to teachers and school leaders to provide support for them,” he said. Abeyta said he has had no problems with students’ use of iPads and believes that giving one to every student is beneficial. “The sky is the limit,” he said. “Technology is the future.”

Researchers seek to prove Genesis Institute scientists review data with a Christian worldview By Scott Farwell The Dallas Morning News

DALLAS — Most scientists believe Darwin got it right: Single-celled creatures evolved into complex ones, a process of natural selection and genetic adaptation that over eons turned a primordial swamp into shape-shifting cells, into apelike primates, into people. His theory is taught in virtually every science classroom in the world. It is used to demystify the complexity of life, translate the language of DNA, and make sense of geology, biology and paleontology. Scientists call evolution a unifying theory, a weight-bearing wall that frames our understanding of the natural world. But at the Institute for Creation Research in northwest Dallas, a group of nine Ph.D.s from places like Harvard and Los Alamos National Laboratory say all that molecules-toman stuff is nonsense. And they’re out to prove it. The biblical story of Genesis is literally true, they say. God created the heavens, earth and life in six sequential days lasting about 24 hours each. Young-earth creationists like those at ICR argue that everything in the known universe began 6,000 to 10,000 years ago, a numeric range they calculate using the genealogy of the Bible — Adam lived 930 years and begat a son named Seth, who lived 105 years and begat Enos, and so on. “Our attempt is to demonstrate that the Bible is accurate, not just religiously authoritative,” said Henry Morris III, CEO of the nonprofit with a 49-person payroll and an annual budget in the $7 million range. “The rationale behind it is this: If God really does exist, he shouldn’t be lying to us,” he told The Dallas Morning News. “And if he’s lying to us right off the bat in the book of Genesis, we’ve got some real problems.” Morris knows ICR’s professors are pariahs among their peers, their positions are ridiculed as “pseudo-science” by researchers around the world, and even many pastors reject the group’s literal reading of the Old Testament. This spring, televangelist Pat Robertson said on the Christian-themed television show The 700 Club that people would “have to be deaf, dumb and blind to think that this earth that we live on only has 6,000 years of existence. I think to deny the clear [geologic] record that’s there before us makes us look silly.” Colleges and universities have taught evolution almost exclusively for nearly the past 100 years.

Late fumble near end zone costs UNM the game By Will Webber The New Mexican

ALBUQUERQUE — The Gamblin man made a wager he couldn’t pay for. Electing to field a punt inside his own 10-yard-line in the waning UTEP 31 moments of a tie UNM 24 ballgame, University of New Mexico return man Dameon Gamblin muffed the ball and gave visiting UTEP an opening-game gift that cost the Lobos

a shot at victory. The Miners (1-0) capitalized moments later when Aaron Jones, a former UNM recruit with a major chip on his shoulder, scored on a 3-yard run to hand UTEP a 31-24. Jones shredded the Lobo defense for 237 yards on just 22 carries. He scored three touchdowns, including a 73-yard scoring run during an explosive first half in which UTEP built what seemed like a commanding 24-7 lead at halftime.

INSIDE u Wrapup of MWC games. PAGE D-5

UNM head coach Bob Davie described his team’s play as “wobbly” as the Lobos tippy-toed their way through the first two quarters. “Just unacceptable performance in the first half,” Davie said. “Their head coach got their guys ready to play and our head coach here didn’t get the guys ready to play. It’s that simple.”

Davie also took the blame for Gamblin’s gaffe. After the Lobos rallied to tie the game at 24 in the fourth quarter — a rally that nearly imploded when starting quarterback Cole Gautsche pulled his right hamstring on a 33-yard keeper to start the equalizing drive — the UNM defense forced a UTEP punt with just under four minutes remaining. Gamblin was late getting onto the field and broke the cardinal rule of football when he drifted inside his

That visit — or lack thereof — gave him the motivation to make a statement against the

COMMENTARY

Misunderstood call turns into costly play for team

Demons must learn to listen to their coach

By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

f Joey Fernandez’s hair looks a little whiter on Sunday, it was because of a bad fake punt on Satuday. Before St. Michael’s beat Santa Fe High 28-14 to pick up its sixth straight win in the long-running intracity rivalry that served as both schools’ season opener, a failed attempt by the Horsemen to pick up a first down to start the fourth quarter on fourth down gave the Demons a chance to tie a 21-14 game and give Fernandez some agonizing moments. Although it looked like Fernandez was being his usual bold self by letting sophomore quarterback Chross Jaramillo run a fake punt while the Horsemen were at their own 15-yardline, it was all a big misunderstanding. “They thought I called it, but I was telling them to watch the outside

Santa Fe High has trust issues. It’s what separated the Demons from perhaps its biggest football win in several years, considering who was on the other sidelines. When the moment called for Santa Fe High to make adjustments in its city rivalry game against St. Michael’s on Saturday night, it wasn’t the adjustment that was in dispute. It was the execution that left something to be desired, and it helped St. Michael’s escape with a 28-14 win at Ivan Head Stadium in the 83rd meeting between the two programs.

it mattered. The Cowboys were 19-point underdogs in the $1.2 billion home of the Dallas Cowboys but stayed close when J.W. Walsh matched Winston’s scoring run with a 24-yard sprint and dive across the goal line to get within 27-24 early in the fourth quarter.

The Seminoles were up three in the third quarter when Winston broke loose for the longest scoring run of his career.

Isner again loses to Kohlschreiber in 3rd round By Howard Fendrich The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Once again, John Isner’s trip to Flushing Meadows ended in the third round. Once again, it happened with a loss to Germany’s Philipp Kohlschreiber at that stage. And once again, there are zero American men in the U.S. Open’s round of 16 — something that had never happened until it did last year at the country’s tennis championship, which was first played in 1881. On a windy, cloudy evening, the 13th-seeded Isner hit 42 aces, saved all five break points he faced — and yet it wasn’t enough. Unable to capitalize

on plenty of openings, and surprisingly outplayed in a trio of tiebreakers, Isner lost to the 22nd-seeded Kohlschreiber 7-6 (4), 4-6, 7-6 (2), 7-6 (4).

Currently, he is the only U.S. man ranked inside the top 45, and has made clear he does not necessarily enjoy that distinction. Fans at Louis Armstrong Stadium tried to boost their guy with chants of “Let’s go, John!” And they roared throughout the fourth set, especially when Isner would edge ahead within a game. But this one mainly came down to the tiebreakers, usually a strong suit for Isner: He entered the day 37-17 in those set-deciders this season, while Kohlschreiber was only 9-11. “He was just better,” Isner said. “I’ve got to be better. I know I can be. Just not showing it.”

Earlier Saturday, 57th-ranked Sam Querrey — entering the day, the only other man from the host country remaining of the 12 originally in the draw — put up little resistance while bowing out against No. 1 Novak Djokovic 6-3, 6-2, 6-2. Kohlschreiber now will face seven-time major champion Djokovic in the fourth round. Other fourth-round matchups: No. 3 Stan Wawrinka, the Australian Open champion, against No. 16 Tommy Robredo or 19-year-old Nick Kyrgios; 2012 U.S. Open champion Andy Murray against No. 9 JoWilfried Tsonga; No. 5 Milos Raonic against No. 10 Kei Nishikori.

Call: Demons spotted Horseman 14 points

Northern New Mexico

SCOREBOARD

Continued from Page D-1 needed 28. Santa Fe High, led by senior quarterback Robert Corriz, ran two straight running plays for a total of two yards. After an incomplete pass on third down, Santa Fe High coach Ray Holladay called his second timeout of the half. With a lot of yards between the Demons and a first down, everyone on the St. Michael’s defense knew what to expect: Pass. “At that point, we had a pretty good idea of what they were going to run,” said senior St. Michael’s defensive end Nathanyal Leyba. “We wanted it just as bad as them, and in the end it turned out to be in our favor.” Corriz dropped back and threw a pass in the end zone for wideout Robert Hashagan, who he had already connected with several times before, but St. Michael’s sophomore cornerback Esteban Alcaraz deflected the ball and the Demons’ chances of a tie. “That was a big stop,” Fernandez said. “They had momentum and we needed to suck it up and play. That was scary. That gave me a few white hairs.” The stop may have done more to stop a tie. Holladay believes that if Hashagan would have caught that touchdown pass, Santa Fe High would have beat the Horsemen for the first

time since 2008. “I really thought that if we tied it, we would come out on the other end — I really did,” Holladay said. “I think that would have brought the momentum to us. I think we either go to overtime or find a way to win it in regulation.” Still, Santa Fe High made this the most competitive game in the series in a while, as the Horsemen have won the last five meetings by a count of 265-41. The Demons spotted the Horsemen a 14-0 lead with 10:33 left in the first half, but they retaliated with a 49-yard drive that culminated with a with a 20-yard touchdown run by Corriz with 1:12 left in the second

quarter to cut the deficit to 14-6 at halftime. The Horsemen responded when Jaramillo returned the opening kickoff 70 yards for a score and a 21-6 lead. That gave St. Michael’s a little bit of breathing room after the Demons started to get hot. “That second quarter wasn’t a pretty quarter,” Fernandez said. “We lost momentum going into halftime, and that kickoff return to start the second half was big for us.” Santa Fe High countered with a 20-yard touchdown pass from Corriz to running back Jaime Perez — who also ran for a successful two-point conversion — to cut the Horsemen lead to 21-14 with 6:24 left in the third

quarter. Santa Fe High didn’t score again, but it showed St. Michael’s that it is not the same team it used to be. “It feels good knowing that we competed for 48 minutes, and that’s something that hasn’t happened in the five previous years I’ve been here,” Holladay said. “For us, that is a huge step in the right direction.” And that was why Fernandez didn’t stress about a victory over the improved Demons. “I’m just happy with the win,” he said. “I knew they’d be a lot better. They’re a lot bigger than us, and I knew they’d be physical.” But he didn’t know they would age him a little.

he outraced the Demons to the end zone for the touchdown and a 28-14 margin. “I think we’re going to see that the things we did, we can clean up,” Holladay said. “The big thing I told [after the game] was, we gotta listen.” That Santa Fe High is willing to try to make those changes is a sign where the team is right now. Holladay feels this is the right team for the Demons to make the move to Class AAAAAA after four years at AAAA. He sees a veteran group, with 21 seniors, that understands the defensive and offensive schemes well enough to adapt when the moment calls for it. “We’re pretty coachable,” said senior fullback/linebacker Rayes Montano. “We don’t have that mind that, ‘Oh,

they don’t know what they’re talking about.’ We’re willing to say, ‘OK, I can fix that.’ ” That willingness to learn from mistakes has not always been there for the program. Montano admitted that some players didn’t buy into what the coaching staff was teaching, which often led to the miscommunication that often led to busted plays. Jaime Perez feels that the success of the past two seasons (the program’s first two district titles since 1986) has helped some players see the light. “Coach Holladay deserves a lot of credit for that,” he said. That the Demons can admit their mistakes might be the sign Holladay has been waiting for. All that’s left is them to trust what they’re hearing.

Pirates victorious over Reds The Associated Press

In Pittsburgh, Josh Harrison hit an RBI triple and scored on Jose Tabata’s tiebreaking single in the eighth inning, leading the Pittsburgh Pirates 2 Pirates to a 2-1 victory Reds 1 over the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night. Harrison had three hits in the Pirates’ sixth win in eight games. Tabata, starting in right field for the injured Travis Snider, finished with two hits. Pirates starter Edinson Volquez was working on a nohitter before Devin Mesoraco’s leadoff single in the seventh. He was charged with one run and three hits in 7⅔ innings. Reds right-hander Mike Leake allowed six hits in seven innings in his second consecutive scoreless outing. He pitched 6⅔ innings in a 1-0 victory over Atlanta last Saturday in his previous start. Tony Watson (10-1) got the win and Mark Melancon pitched the ninth for his 25th save. Reds right-hander Jonathan Broxton (4-2) allowed two runs and three hits in the eighth. METS 4, PHILLIES 1 In New York, Jacob deGrom pitched seven crisp innings and the Mets scored the tiebreaking runs when left fielder Grady Sizemore dropped an easy pop fly. Eric Campbell stole home on a double steal, helping the Mets stay out of the NL East cellar with their 12th victory in 17 games against Philadelphia this year. The Phillies had won four straight and six of seven. A victory in the series opener would have pushed last-place Philadelphia past New York, but Sizemore’s two-out error with the bases loaded in the seventh cost them. In a matchup of rookie righthanders, deGrom (7-6) allowed

four hits and an unearned run. Jenrry Mejia struck out three in the ninth for his 20th save. David Buchanan went six innings for the Phillies, giving up one run and four hits. Jake Diekman (3-4) got the loss. AMERICAN LEAGUE ORIOLES 9, TWINS 1 In Baltimore, Chris Davis hit his fourth career grand slam, and Baltimore got a dominating pitching performance from Miguel Gonzalez. Delmon Young also homered for the AL East-leading Orioles, who built an 8-0 lead in the fifth inning against rookie Trevor May (0-4). Baltimore’s fourth win in five games was marred by an injury to first baseman Steve Pearce, who left with a right abdominal strain. It was the fifth loss in six games for the Twins. Their lone bright spot was a home run by Trevor Plouffe, the 10,000th in franchise history. Gonzalez (7-7) allowed one runs and four hits over seven innings, striking out six and walking one. YANKEES 6, BLUE JAYS 3 In Toronto, Jacoby Ellsbury and Chase Headley homered, leading the Yankees to the win. Chris Capuano (2-3) pitched

6⅓ innings in his first win in seven starts since joining New York. The veteran left-hander, who was acquired last month in a trade with Colorado, allowed three runs, two earned, and eight hits. David Robertson got the final four outs for his 35th save in 38 chances. Jose Bautista homered and Dioner Navarro had three hits, but the Blue Jays dropped to 7-17 in August. Mark Buehrle (11-9) allowed four runs and seven hits in six innings, leaving the lefty with a 1-13 record and a 6.14 ERA in 20 career starts against New York. RED SOX 8, RAYS 4 In St. Petersburg, Fla., rookie Mookie Betts hit his first career grand slam and Anthony Ranaudo pitched six effective innings, leading Boston to the road win. After Yoenis Cespedes drove in his second run of the game with a double, Betts connected off Chris Archer (8-7) to cap a five-run second inning that made it 8-0. Ranaudo (3-0), recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket before the game, gave up three runs and five hits. He has won all three of his big league starts. Archer allowed eight runs and nine hits over four innings. The Rays have lost nine of 13.

Wyo.’s new coach gets win over Mont. The Associated Press

LARAMIE, Wyo. — Bohlball is now the official brand of Wyoming football. “This is going to be a new brand of football,” new coach Craig Bohl said after Wyoming ground out a 17-12 win over Montana Wyoming 17 on Saturday Montana 12 behind a methodical pro-style, ball-controlling offense and a stingy, swarming defense. Shaun Wick rushed for 134 yards and a touchdown, D.J. May added 96 yards and a score and the Cowboys defense held Montana to 253 yards total offense. Wyoming (1-0) has beaten Montana, a Football Championship Subdivision school, in all 14 of their matchups. Of the 301 total yards gained by the Cowboys against the Grizzlies, 209 came on the ground. Bohl was hired last December after leading North Dakota State to three consecutive FCS national championships. NEVADA 28, SOUTHERN UTAH 19 In Reno, Nev., Cody Fajardo threw for 303 yards and a touchdown and ran for another score to lead Nevada to a 28-19 win over Southern Utah in the season opener. The only FBS player with over

7,000 passing yards and 2,000 rushing yards, Fajardo finished with 371 yards, giving him 9,968 total career yards. He completed 30 of 41 passes and ran for 68 yards. Jerico Richardson caught 13 passes for 177 yards for Nevada. Don Jackson rushed for 110 yards and one score. AIR FORCE 44, NICHOLLS 16 At Air Force Academy, Colo., after a promising start, the incessant, pounding rushing attack of Air Force proved to be too much for Nicholls. Jacobi Owens rushed for 233 yards in his Air Force debut and Devin Rushing scored two short touchdowns, helping the Falcons beat the visiting Colonels 44-16 and drop Nicholls’ record against FBS opponents to 3-21. It was the Falcons’ 19th straight win over a team from the Football Championship Subdivision. SAN DIEGO STATE 38, NORTHERN ARIZONA 7 In San Diego, Donnel Pumphrey ran for 111 yards on 19 carries and scored twice in San Diego State’s 38-7 victory over Northern Arizona on Saturday night. Pumphrey’s scoring runs came from a yard out. Quinn Kaehler was 18 of 29 for 205 yards and a touchdown, extending his streak of 200-yard passing games to 13. The Aztecs scored the first 24 points.

Lobos: Quarterback likely out next week Continued from Page D-1 team that originally wanted him. “They never showed up,” Jones said. “They called and told me when they were going coming, my mom cooked and they never showed up. So I had to take it to them.” Until his injury, Gautsche was just as effective as Jones. He finished with 184 yards rushing, scoring twice. That included a 68-yard touchdown run in the first half. The Lobos had 410 yards on the ground, but their momentum stalled when Gautsche exited the game after his long run kick-started a drive that ended with a 35-yard Zack Rogers field goal midway through the fourth quarter to tie the game at 24-all. “There’s just a little bit of difference between Cole Gautsche running that triple option and Clayton Mitchem,” Davie said, citing a critical fumble in a subsequent drive where Mitchem’s option pitch to Jhurell Pressley was off the mark and wound up as a UTEP fumble recovery. Davie said Gautsche likely would not play next week against nationally ranked Arizona State. “It’s just the execution in the option game is not as crisp,” Davie said. “The other thing to notice is Clayton, they’re different styles. Clayton goes down pretty easy. You saw a couple times there in the end where somebody will reach out and knock Clayton down. You’re not going to reach out and

knock Cole down.” Davie said that third-string quarterback Lamar Jordan, a freshman, would likely see action in next week’s game. In the meantime, he said the team would rally around players like Gamblin and try to learn from the mistakes that proved so costly. Even offensive lineman LaMar Bratton chimed in, saying several players approached Gamblin in the locker room afterward to offer support. “I can say that games like these hurt the most,” Bratton said. “You’re right there and you can almost taste, and smell, and feel the victory. Just like any moment, it can be taken away just like that.”

The Lobos did have some positives to take away. While the defense failed to stop UTEP on seven of the Miners’ 10 conversion attempts on third down in the first half, it forced four straight failed tries on third down in the second half. Still, the defense extended a dubious streak that dates to the middle of last season. For the eighth straight game, the unit failed to force a single turnover. That’s a span of 32 quarters and exactly 491 minutes. The task doesn’t get any easier next week as Arizona State, which began the season ranked in the top-20 of most national polls, rolls into University Stadium for a brutal nonconference test for UNM’s emotion-

ally scarred club.

GAME NOTES UNM linebacker Dakota Cox recorded a career-high 17 tackles. It’s the fifth time in the last six games he has had at least 10 stops. … The field goal by Rogers was the first of his Lobos career. … Gautsche’s 184 rushing yards were a career high. He also had a 51-yard touchdown run. … Pressley had 84 yards rushing but he was charged with the fumble on Mitchem’s errant option pitch in the fourth quarter. … The teams combined for 923 yards offense, 740 of which came on the ground. … UTEP had not won a season opener since 2008. … The paid attendance was listed as 25,802.

Ex-Bronco Bailey, Sam among NFL players cut The Associated Press

For the first time in his career, Champ Bailey was told he isn’t good enough. Jettisoned by the New Orleans Saints after a difficult training camp, the 12-time Pro Bowl cornerback was the most notable name when NFL teams trimmed their rosters to 53 active players Saturday. A close second was Rams rookie Michael Sam, the first openly gay player drafted by an NFL team. The seventh-round draft pick, watched as closely as any rookie in the league this summer, couldn’t make a team stacked with pass-rushers. He still has a chance to get picked up by another team or to make the Rams’ practice squad. Coach Jeff Fisher repeated over and over that cutting Sam was purely a football decision. “I will tell you this: I was pulling for Mike,” Fisher said. “I really was, and I don’t say that very often. Mike came in here and did everything we asked him to do.” On Twitter, roughly an hour after he was cut, Sam wrote: “The most worthwhile things in life rarely come easy, this is a lesson I’ve always known. The journey continues.” The Rams selected Sam, the SEC co-defensive player of the year at Missouri, with the 249th overall pick out of 256 overall. Fisher called the draft pick a “second historic moment” for a franchise that signed running back Kenny Washington in 1946 as the league’s first black player in the modern era. It just might be the end of a stellar career for Bailey, who said after the Super Bowl that he wouldn’t retire “because I still know I can play this game.” Only seven players in NFL history have more Pro Bowl selections than Bailey, who signed with the Saints following his release from the Denver Broncos in the spring only to

spend much of training camp dealing with nagging injuries. “Well, whatever happens to him now in the short term is not going to change his legacy,” Broncos GM John Elway said. “He’s still going to go down as one of the greatest corners to ever play the game and will always in our minds be a Denver Bronco.” Bailey missed 11 games last season after hurting his left foot in the preseason. He returned for Denver’s stretch run and reached his first Super Bowl, but clearly wasn’t the same player. In his prime, Bailey wasn’t often challenged by quarterbacks yet he still managed 52 interceptions, more than any active cornerback. Elway said it was difficult to let Bailey go this offseason as he retooled his defense following Denver’s Super Bowl dud against Seattle. Among the players Elway dismissed was nine-year defensive tackle Kevin Vickerson, who started 25 games for the defending AFC champs over the past two seasons. Vickerson was beaten out by Marvin Austin, the latest veteran whom Elway signed to a one-year, no-bonus deal. Elway also cut third-year safety Duke Ihenacho, who was the odd-man out in a crowded defensive backfield. Other notable players who were either waived or released this weekend: Cowboys: The Dallas Cowboys have waived running back Ryan Williams and receivers LaRon Byrd and Jamar Newsome while acquiring defensive end

Lavar Edwards in a trade with Tennessee. Two of the team’s five seventh-round draft picks this year were waived, cornerback Terrance Mitchell and linebacker Will Smith. Jets: WR Stephen Hill, a 2012 second-round draft pick out of Georgia Tech. He finished the past two seasons on IR. CB Dimitri Patterson, who was cut, ended a bizarre week that began when he left the team before its preseason game against the Giants. Bengals: RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis, the team’s top rusher the past two seasons who was made expendable when the team drafted LSU’s Jeremy Hill in the second round. Browns: WR Nate Burleson, an 11-year veteran who was slowed by a hamstring injury. The Browns are thin at wide receiver after Pro Bowler Josh Gordon was suspended for the season for another violation of the league’s substance-abuse policy. Saints: Kickers Shayne Graham and Derek Dimke. Harrison retires: Five-time Pro Bowl linebacker James Harrison announced his retirement, saying his desire to play doesn’t match the desire to stay home with his family. Harrison, the 2008 NFL Defensive Player of the Year, wrote on his Facebook page he didn’t want to miss another birthday or first day of school so he could continue his career. The 36-year-old was a free agent after spending the 2013 season with the Bengals following a decade with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He met with the Arizona Cardinals, but did not sign a contract. Orton signs: Veteran quarterback Kyle Orton is in and Jeff Tuel out after the Buffalo Bills shuffled their backup quarterbacks for the second time. Orton, a nine-year NFL veteran, signed a one-year contract. Orton spent the past two seasons in Dallas before being cut by the Cowboys in mid-July after he skipped the team’s offseason workouts amid reports that he was considering retirement.

am worried. I am worried because I just learned something. What I learned was bad. I learned it from a letter I got. It was from a man. His name is Bill. Bill is an authority on how people read and write. “Authority” is a great big word. It means that Bill is an expert. “Expert” is a medium-big word. It means that Bill knows a lot about words. Bill should really be called Mr. DuBay because he is a teacher, and it is good to call teachers Mr. (or Ms. if they are ladies). Mr. DuBay is not like most teachers. He doesn’t teach kids. He goes to office places and teaches us grown-ups. He teaches us how to write. Gene We already know how to write, but we Weingarten sometimes do it with big words that a The Washington lot of people don’t understand. Post Here comes the bad part. Mr. DuBay says most people in this country don’t read any better than seventh-graders! It’s true. Smart people have studied this. But hold on! It’s worse than that! Seventh-graders can read seventh-grade books if you make them, but they don’t like to do it. That is because it makes them think too much. It is too hard. So, instead, they like to read things that are written for fifth-graders. If you want seventh-grade kids to want to read all by themselves, you have to give them fifth-grade books! So, Mr. DuBay says that to make most grown-ups want to read something, you have to write it so seventh-grade kids will like it. That means you really need to write for fifth-graders! Big companies pay Mr. DuBay money to tell them that. Then they do what he says. It is called “effective business communication.” “Effective business communication” is a whole lot of great big words that mean talking and writing so other people know what you mean. I asked Mr. DuBay if it made him sad that people are dumb. He said maybe a little, but that this was just a “fact of life.” He did not mean the facts of life, like your mom told you about that time and it made you feel all icky-doody. Mr. DuBay would not say that. He is a nice man. He meant that it is sad that people do not read real well but that he has a job to do. His job is not to make people read better. His job is to tell us how to talk to all the dumb people. So, soon when you read things by big companies or by your country, things like your tax form or something you get about stocks you own, it will read more like this. I said I thought this was condescending. “Condescending” is a great big word that means talking down to. I said maybe it would be better if we could just make people smarter. Mr. DuBay said that would be great, but first things first. He said it is a hard problem because grown-ups watch too much TV, and when they read books it is books by people like Mr. Cussler and Mr. Grisham. Mr. Cussler and Mr. Grisham write like this. There is a test you can do on books, and the test shows their books are for fifth- and sixth-graders. Mr. Cussler and Mr. Grisham are rich. Mr. Herman Melville did not write for fifth-graders. He died with no money. People thought he was a failure. Isn’t Herman a funny name?

CAPE TOWN, South Africa — Cape Town is a place of wry contrasts, a place where you might encounter an international fashion model, a hippie or a “bergie” (beggar). There are urban black townships and picturesque seascapes. A mix of colonial history, the struggle against apartheid and 20 years of democracy color what Cape Town is today. Two of the city’s most famous attractions are Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned, and Table Mountain, with an aerial tram to the top. You’ll have to buy tickets to take the island ferry or the tram, but many other experiences can be had for free. Sea Point Promenade: This is the perfect vantage point to see sea gulls, waves crashing onto rocks and miles of Atlantic beaches. With the taste of sea salt in the air, you can walk, jog or sit on a bench to view the Mother City. The promenade offers a temporary art project, art54, with new pieces exhibited from time to time. For exercise lovers, there is a free outdoor gym. Around the corner, Green Point Urban Park, a 2010 World Cup legacy, offers one of the most biodiverse regions with Wetland Walks and childfriendly spots for picnicking. Company’s Garden: The Company’s Garden was started in 1652 by the Dutch East India Company, which supplied ships for the spice trade route via the Cape of Good Hope. It’s a calm, quiet hideaway from the surrounding busy streets for students, tourists and people who work in the center of Cape Town. The oak trees that silhouette Government Avenue lead to landmarks like the somber Slave Bell memorial, the Houses of Parliament and the National Gallery (which charges admission). You can also meet cute and curious squirrels that expect visitors to feed them nuts. Will you by chance spot the particularly aggressive albino squirrel made famous by YouTube and the Company’s Garden travel writings? False Bay: Visit quaint Kalk Bay, a village with oldfashioned stores, sea-hugging trains and natural harbor.

Tracy Morgan

Comedian still struggling after car accident

Cee Lo Green enters no contest plea in drug case

TRENTON, N.J. — An attorney for Tracy Morgan says the former Saturday Night Live actor is having a tough time recovering from a June accident on the New Jersey Turnpike that left a fellow comedian dead. Attorney Benedict Morelli tells The StarLedger newspaper that Morgan relies on a wheelchair and it may be months before he can fully walk again. Morelli says Morgan appears to be making progress, but it will be a month before he is assessed “cognitively.” Morgan broke his leg, nose and several ribs in a six-car accident involving his limo bus, and comedian James McNair was killed. The bus was struck by a Wal-Mart truck.

Cee Lo Green pleaded no contest Friday to one felony count of furnishing ecstasy to a woman during a 2012 dinner in Los Angeles and was sentenced to serve probation and community service. The Grammy-winning singer also entered a special plea in which he maintained his innocence in the case and that prevents his no contest plea from being used against him in civil court. The drug case could be used against Green in criminal court if he faces another drug offense.

WASHINGTON — Singer Chris Brown is scheduled to appear in a District of Columbia court for what would be a third attempt at a plea deal to resolve an assault case that dates to October 2013. According to court filings, Brown was scheduled to appear in D.C. Superior Court on Friday for a plea hearing but was unable due to travel issues. The hearing was rescheduled.

Walk along as waves crash the wharf and see rustic boats and seals that are lazy on land but look elegant in the water. You can meet Afrikaans fishermen, colorful and candid, while locals barter for the catch of the day. Along the scenic coastline of False Bay — so called because sailors confused it with another nearby bay — you may see both penguins and whales. Enjoy spotting majestic Southern Right whales from June until November. The endangered African Penguin Colony offers a look at adorable jackass penguins waddling on Boulder’s Beach, but does charge a fee. You know you’re near when you see penguin road signs on the streets. Lion’s Head and Signal Hill: Drive up Signal Hill for a scenic perch above this beautiful coastline. At 12 noon each day, a gun is fired, waking up birds and making you jump out of your skin with laughter. Two centuries ago, the South African Navy used the cannon to announce the arrival of ships. Locals love this spot for sunset picnics, drinks and meeting friends. It offers views of Robben Island, Table Mountain and the seascape. There are easy trails from Signal Hill to the top of Lion’s Head, and full moon hikes offer a chance to see spectacular glittering moonlight on the sea. A word of caution: There have been reports of muggings and other security issues in the area, so be aware of your surroundings and be careful with your possessions. Woodstock: Woodstock, infamous for crime and drugs, has become a rejuvenated inner-city suburb. The warehouses, old and rundown, have been transformed into trendy shops, art galleries and fashionable places to be. You can stroll through Saturday markets that offer allthe-rage food and a wide range of designer stores. Feast your imagination on the street art around each corner. You will see graffiti tags in neon and a variety of abstract images and realistic portraits by renowned street artists from all over the world. The art themes range from the neighborhood’s crime-ridden past to its rebirth.

Pacino plays a small-town Texas locksmith with a key for everything except his own unhappiness in David Gordon Green’s Manglehorn. And he’s an aging actor who has lost his mojo, and his grip on reality, in Barry Levinson’s The Humbling. The Associated Press

Decor in all its

facets

Angled elements add layers of visual interest By Kim Cook The Associated Press

ans of crisp, modern architecture and clean-lined shapes will love one of this fall’s strongest style trends: faceted decor. For those who feel that the whole bold, geometric-pattern thing is nearing overexposure, faceted furniture and prints make sense, according to New York designer Elaine Griffin. “Purer and streamlined, the faceted silhouette is the stylistic descendent of geometrics — think geometrics deconstructed,” she says. The style, says Griffin, can be modern (the faceted Hearst Tower in New York City oozes architectural chic), primitive (think Grand Canyon) and vintage (Art Deco and the Cubists). “Faceted shapes are intrinsically more visually appealing because, whether they’re mirrored or not,

they reflect more light,” she says. “A faceted element in a piece adds a stylish, decorative layer of dimension and surface interest without crossing over into the fussy, frilly or overdone.” The “gemstone” shape is especially attractive in reflective materials — mirror, glass, shiny metallics — where light plays off the planes. The look is clean, contemporary and luxe. Yet in ceramic, wood or fabric, the polyhedron shape looks appealingly organic, as in honeycombs and cellular structures. Wayfair’s got faceted decor from several sources. Stacked, smoky, etched-glass facets make a smartlooking Borghese table. Imax’s lemon-yellow ceramic Chantal vase has a chic modern look. Three simple, faceted crystal blocks anchor Safavieh’s Cube fixture, creating a simple yet elegant table lamp. Arteriors’ antiqued-brass faceted table

Even a small space can house a fish pond By Katherine Roth The Associated Press

When Ann and Glen Gage downsized from their expansive home and garden in Switzerland to a San Francisco townhouse, one of the things they missed most was the koi pond they’d built and tended for years. It was brimming with elegant plants, fish and its own ecosystem. So they built not one but two new ponds, this time city-style: one for their balcony overlooking San Francisco and the other for their leafy entryway. “If you have limited space or want an interesting water feature … patio or container ponds are an easy option, and the only limits are your creativity,” said Marc Hachadourian, director of the Nolan Greenhouses

for Living Collections at the New York Botanical Garden. The Gages assembled their container ponds using large planters, which they made water-tight by caulking any drainage holes. Then they added gravel and a few larger rocks, and filled the container with water. They added an electric a bubbler and filter, “to make the fish happy.” Next came a few floating aquatic plants, which they harvested from a pond in the area, and finally a variety of “rescue fish” from a pet store.

o learn about market conditions, buyer and seller traffic, and price trends, the National Association of Realtors polls the practitioners, Realtors, each month in what is known as the Realtors Confidence Index. We participated in the July poll that quizzed brokers about June transactions. While all real estate is local, the answers are indicative of the housing market, so let’s see how Santa Fe stacked up with the rest of the U.S. The confidence in the market was down just slightly from the previous month while still considered strong, and Realtors reported a slight decline in single-family home sales. The market for townhomes and condos is still considered to be weak due to the difficulty of obtaining FHA financing. In Santa Fe, home sales rose in June from 146 in May to 168. Of those, 24 were condos, four were manufactured/mobile homes, 129 were single-family homes and 11 were townhomes. Several states reported an uptick in inventory including California, Florida, Ohio and Hawaii, but for the rest of the nation, demand remained tight. Santa Fe, too, experienced a slight reduction in new listings in U E | PA R A July over the previous month. O N PA LA C E AV EN Many Realtors reported that inventory was an issue and most transactions that occurred in June were reported MORE HOME as selling at 44 days on the This column runs market. Short sales were on the regularly in Home, market the longest at 120 days Santa Fe Real and bank-owned properties Estate Guide. sold at 54 days. In Santa Fe, of Look for Home the 168 properties that sold in inside The New June, 44 were on the market Mexican every 60 days or less, 38 were on the first Sunday of the market up to 120 days, 20 were month and at www.santafe on the market up to 180 days newmexican. and 22 were on the market for com/life/home. over a year. These numbers could be slightly misleading because Santa Fe no longer tracks “cumulative days on the market” and if a property relists because it did not sell, the new listing restarts the clock. However, the numbers do note there is strong buyer demand for well-priced new inventory. In December 2013, the tax break on debt forgiveness as a result of a short sale expired, and many brokers reported that distressed sellers have held back from the market due to tax consequences. Realtors reported across the nation that distressed sales made up 11 percent of the market in June. In Santa Fe, distressed sales made up almost 12 percent with 15 bank-owned and five short sales. These also sold at the biggest premium, with the majority selling between 80 percent and 85 percent selling price to listing price. Across the U.S., cash sales in June represented 32 percent of the market. Of those, 13 percent were reported to be first-time homebuyers, while the others were investors, high-income earners (especially in the technology sector) and foreign buyers. In Santa Fe, cash sales in June represented 44 percent of the market, which is not surprising since Santa Fe is a destination market with many second homes and vacation homes. Realtors across the country reported that 9 percent of all sales were to a vacation homebuyer, and that number was down from 12 percent in January. Lackluster performance in this sector suggests the economy is still worrisome and Santa Fe’s slow recovery has a direct correlation with national trends. Overall, Realtors report the market has slowed somewhat due to higher prices, limited inventories, appraisal issues and certain financing difficulties. Lawrence Yun, chief economist for NAR, reports that there is still sizable pent-up demand and that lack of inventory is a key factor in slower home sales. He expects the market will continue to rebound and come back this year and the next. We in Santa Fe certainly hope so.

Designing parents raid the dorm Moms, in particular, try to help college-bound kids with decor By Roxanne Roberts The Washington Post

o much stuff, so little style. The dream dorm room was just not happening. Five years ago, Karen and Amanda Zuckerman hit the malls and big-box stores to decorate Amanda’s freshman dorm at Washington University in St. Louis. The offerings were … well, underwhelming. “She wanted something special,” Karen Zuckerman says. “She wanted a home away from home that reflected her style.” The mother and daughter cobbled together a cute-enough room, then did what any creative, enterprising family would do: They founded Dormify, an online dorm design business based in Rockville, Md. College students will spend $48 billion this year (an average of $916 per person) on furniture, electronics, bedding and other supplies, according to the National Retail Federation. Then there are the families who take it to the next level: hiring a professional decorator to transform the typical college cell into a cozy retreat. “Designers are doing individual rooms and calling us for products,” Zuckerman says. “It’s becoming a really big deal.” The average dorm room — even at some of the most elite colleges and universities — is not only tiny, but also ugly: white paint, standard-issue furniture, fluorescent lighting and nothing that requires nails in the walls. (Some don’t even have air conditioning, which creates another issue.) It’s a challenge for many millennials who have never shared a bedroom or bath and aren’t accustomed to roommates or going without. Helicopter parents are not inclined to drop their darlings at the dorm entrance with two suitcases and cheerfully wave goodbye. Instead, they’re turning to their own interior designers or professional organizers, such as Rachel Strisik Rosenthal. One of Rosenthal’s first jobs was putting together a dorm room for a female college sophomore at George Washington University. The student had a tendency to be unorganized and had a bumpy first year, so her parents hired the Bethesda, Md.-based organizer to put together her dorm room in a way that helped her relax and study. “They wanted her to feel comfortable,” Rosenthal says. “I’ve never been contacted directly by a student. It’s usually the parent.” After taking measurements, Rosenthal put the bed on risers to create storage room, revamped her closet, put in shelves and other wall storage, and reorganized her desk to keep track of assignments and other class materials. The total cost for labor and materials? About $800. The student was so pleased that she worked with the organizer four more times on other dorm rooms and then her first apartment. Dorms are now about 5 percent of Rosenthal’s business, with clients paying the $675 minimum for a combination of design and organization systems. That’s a relative bargain; she knows a professional organizer in New York who just moved a student into a dorm room — and the planning and design fees alone were $5,000. This is almost an entirely female phenomenon, fueled by social media and increasingly sophisticated marketing to college students. Boys don’t really care what their rooms look like — they just

want the TV and other electronics. (Dormify added a section this year for guys, but “that’s really targeted toward moms,” Zuckerman says.) Girls, on the other hand, create mood boards with pictures of their perfect space and trade ideas on Facebook and Pinterest. Zuckerman says more mothers and daughters are doing this together, often with professional help, to create the first dorm room — one way of easing the separation anxiety. The same baby boomers who slapped a Bob Marley poster on the dorm wall and called it a day are now willing to pay big bucks for coordinating duvets, pillows curtains, rugs and other symbols of a well-appointed dorm for their children. Dormify started out by designing fashionable twin XL sheets (the standard size found only on campuses), then added other bedding and window collections, wall decals, storage and bath accessories. The company added a blog and “style advisors” across the country — 600 students who post photos of cute dorm rooms and other ideas for small spaces. It also has a licensing agreement with 22 national sororities, offering customized items. A typical purchase on the site is $300, but some customers shell out as much as $2,000 to decorate the entire room. The site also has a gift registry, and more students are asking for dorm decor as birthday and graduation presents. Zuckerman says she probably spent $1,000 on Amanda’s freshman dorm, but she has heard of people who spent $4,000 to $5,000 on decor; one paid even more to install a customized closet system. Many parents are willing to shell out for dorm room decor with the understanding that they are, effectively, putting together a first apartment. The expectation is many of the pricier items will last for years and can be easily transferred to a small rental. That’s one of the operating principles behind Zoom Interiors, an online design firm founded by GWU graduates Lizzie Grover, Beatrice Fischel and Madeline Fraser. The three met as interior design students and launched an enterprise specializing in dorm rooms

and small-space decorating. They had helped their friends put together stylish dorm rooms, and going pro was the next logical step. “I just got finished with a mom doing a son’s and daughter’s rooms,” Fischel says. The two kids are both at Yale: The son needed a design to accommodate more clothes storage; the daughter needed an overall decor plan. Based on measurements and a video of the room, Fischel created a floor plan, bought all of the products, and arranged to have the items shipped to New Haven, Conn., then assembled and put in place in one day. The total cost was about $3,500 for both rooms. A Harvard student recently contacted Zoom to create an elegant look for his single dorm room. His budget? About $3,000. “He wants very high-end things he can move into an apartment,” she says. The upscale clients “buy things they plan on keeping.” The next step up is a dorm room that’s already high-end. More and more colleges are offering state-of-the-art buildings with all the bells and whistles — larger bedrooms, private baths, elegant common lounges, flat-screen TVs, gyms, tanning salons, rock climbing walls, etc. The designer of Purdue University’s $52 million First Street Towers called it “essentially a hotel” for “helicopter parents who want to send their son or daughter to college campus but give them all the luxuries of home.” In fact, the modern dorm rooms are often more beautiful than first apartments. Many universities and colleges, looking for ways to recruit promising students to their campuses, have turned over student housing to private developers who build and operate high-rise student housing. The rooms cost a few thousand more than traditional dorms, but many students (and parents) are willing to splurge. Of course, “there’s only so much you can do for a dorm room,” says Fischel — even a very, very nice dorm. Although freshman and sometimes sophomores are typically required to live on campus, it’s still not good enough for some parents. “They find a way to pull them out of a dorm and put them into an amazing apartment,” she says. Of course they do.

Grasscloth is fine for walls, but stick with neutral colors By Tim McKeough The New York Times

Marcel Wanders’ polycarbonate Stone stool is available in a range of hues. The transparent material plays with the faceted hourglass shape to refract and reflect both natural and artificial light. COURTESY KARTELL.COM

Question: I’ve heard that when you’re selling your home, it’s better to have neutral wall finishes. Does grasscloth qualify? Answer: Grasscloth comes in many weaves and colors, but is best known for neutral shades that probably wouldn’t be offensive to potential buyers. “It’s easily digestible by a large audience,” said David Salvatore, a real estate salesman at Town Residential in Manhattan, and creative director of Edge Mid-Century Designs, a vintage store and home-staging company

in Clifton, New Jersey. “I personally love the idea behind textured walls, whether it’s grasscloth or embossed wallpaper,” he said, noting that they both work well in traditional and modern homes. Beyond its appearance, grasscloth has another advantage: it can be used to cover up cracked or damaged walls, including troublesome plaster in older homes. “It can hide flaws that would be expensive to repair,” Salvatore said. “It smooths everything out, almost like a little Botox for the wall.” But “a little bit goes a long way,” he said, noting that an accent wall or a small area like a foyer covered in grasscloth is often all you need. “You

have to keep controls on it,” he said. “If every wall of the home is covered with it, it can easily end up just being too much texture.” Katie Lydon, a New York interior designer who frequently uses grasscloth in her work, agreed that it’s a good way to make some rooms more appealing. It can be particularly welcoming in a bedroom, she said, where people want a sense of warmth and comfort, and is also well suited to living rooms and dens. “If it’s a lovely pale grasscloth, it’s a great way to introduce texture and depth without being overwhelming,” Lydon said. “Sometimes paint, particularly in large rooms, can

appear too plain.” There are many kinds of grasscloth, she said, so it’s important to choose carefully: “One of the key issues is the degree of texture. There are some grasscloths that have a very heavy texture, with an almost 3-D quality to the weave and knots in the material; others are very sleek.” For the broadest appeal, Lydon recommended something that falls between those extremes; she suggested grasscloth from Phillip Jeffries, which she often uses. Just be sure to stick with neutral colors. “I don’t think many people would object to grasscloth,” she said. “Unless it’s hot pink.”

Pond: Use aquatic plants to control algae and consider total weight Continued from Page E-1 “We have a really small space and Ann said, wouldn’t it be cool to have a pond here? It couldn’t have been easier,” said Glen Gage. “It’s way less work to maintain than a big aquarium — no cleaning the tank or syphoning out the dirty water — and there’s a relaxing zen quality to the gently bubbling water and swimming fish.” Maintenance involves only refilling the container to replace water lost to evaporation. Although some people put mosquito-killing tablets in the water, experts say a few small fish are sufficient to take care of insect larvae. “You can go crazy with really fancy fish, but our local pet store is super nice and they just let us reach in for feeder fish and choose some with pretty markings that make them look unique. It’s like going to the pound. You feel like you’ve done something really good. They’re basically just goldfish and are pretty hardy,” Gage said.

Although the patio ponds can look and feel like miniature koi ponds, koi experts strongly suggest goldfish as the better choice. Unlike koi, which grow large and need plenty of oxygen and moving water to thrive, goldfish and some other smaller fish are hardier and better suited to patio ponds. “Putting a koi in a little container pond would be like trying to raise a German Shepherd in a box,” said Don Chandler, chairman of Koi USA, based in Costa Mesa, Calif. “The smallest possible koi pond would be a 600- or 800-gallon pond. That’s more than most people are ready for on their patio.” The International Water Garden Society is a good resource when deciding on varieties of aquatic plants. Hachadourian recommends miniature water lilies like dauben, which has a light blue flower and tolerates shadier conditions. Plants like water lettuce and water hyacinth float on the sur-

face, control algae and help filter the water. Aquatic grasses, irises and tarrow are also good choices, he said.

When deciding where to put a patio pond, first consider how much weight your floor or terrace can handle. Even

the lightest container is heavy when filled with water, which weighs just over 8 pounds per gallon. “It’s not what you’d want on a rickety porch,” Hachadourian said. Ponds also need a good amount of light and work best outdoors. Indoors, they would work in a greenhouse-type area; otherwise they generally require additional lighting. Although container ponds work year-round in warmer climates, they are more challenging where winters are harsher. Hachadourian said most container ponds, or at least the fish residing in them, need to be moved to a warmer area in winter. “A lot of people treat patio ponds a bit like annuals and restart their ponds every spring. They just transfer the fish to an indoor aquarium in winter and drain the container pond. In the spring, fast growing aquatic plants are installed, the fish are put back in the pond, and you’re all set for the warmer part of the year,” he said.
