By Milan Simonich The New Mexican

ARTESIA — Oil, farming and high school football are usually the hottest topics in this dusty town of 11,300 people. But now Artesia finds itself in the middle of the national debate on immigration policy.

Between 400 and 500 immigrants accused of illegally entering the United States were being held last week in a government compound here that, ironically enough, trains every U.S. Border Patrol agent.

All of the immigrants being detained in Artesia are moth-

ers and their children, a total of 191 families as of Friday.

Artesia Mayor Phillip Burch says many of those in custody at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center paid thousands of dollars to immigrant smugglers who assured them that they would be accepted in the United States if only they made it to the border in South Texas.

When these mothers with children in tow reached what they thought was a safe haven, a new world full of bright promise, many walked right up

“HONESTLY I WISH PEOPLE DIDNT CARE ABOUT ME AS MUCH AS THEY DO,” he wrote in capital letters and without punctuation. “IM TIRED OF PEOPLE CARING ABOUT ME IM TIRED OF PEOPLE TRYING TO MAKE ME HAPPY.” A day earlier, the 16-year-old aspiring dancer called 911 from his cellphone and, identifying himself as “James,” reported a suspicious man “acting crazy.”

On June 8, he called 911 once more, triggering the last of a series of erratic episodes that ended when, according to police, Victor pointed a toy cap gun at the responding officers and one of the officers fired a single, fatal shot into his chest.

State police are continuing to investigate the shooting. But the circumstances surrounding Victor’s death, which some have described as a “suicide by cop,” continue to

Interviews by people who were closest to him, including his siblings, adoptive parents and his maternal grandmother, reveal a life that began in dire circumstances but was filled with hope. He had ambitious goals for his future in performing arts, family who loved him, and a close circle of friends and supporters. In the weeks leading up to his death, the people interviewed said, he never shared thoughts of depression, much less a desire to die.

But along the way, he left clues hinting at his inner turmoil.

Now, many of those who knew him best are at a loss, trying to understand what they missed. What warnings went unheeded? And what needs to be done to stop others from suffering the same fate?

“Those are questions we could talk about all day long,” said Luis Peña, an Española muralist who had mentored Victor since he was a small child. “We don’t know what happened to Victor that day. And I don’t know what we could have done.”

NATION&WORLD Teachers battle changes in salary Districts debate ending higher pay for advanced degrees

By Jamie Stengle The Associated Press

DALLAS fforts to eliminate extra pay for teachers who earn advanced degrees are gaining momentum in a small but growing number of U.S. schools, stirring a national debate about how best to compensate quality educators and angering teachers who say the extra training is valuable.

More than half of the nation’s teachers have master’s degrees or higher, but the changing salary structure is giving pause to others considering the same path. Texas’ two largest school districts, in Houston and Dallas, recently eliminated advanced degree pay going forward, following the example of North Carolina, where lawmakers last year started phasing it out. A few other states have made tweaks to reduce how much advanced degrees factor into pay.

“They’re trying to say there’s no value at all for a teacher going back to increase their knowledge,” said Rena Honea, president of Alliance-AFT, which represents Dallas Independent School District employees. “Just by having the additional knowledge in their content area gives them more tools in their toolbox to be able to reach the different types of learners that are in the classroom.”

Those championing dropping the extra pay say advanced degrees don’t necessarily translate into better student test scores. They say the money is better spent elsewhere, such as on rewarding teachers deemed most effective in the classroom.

“Effectiveness is more based on results rather than any checklist of things,” said Dallas Superintendent Mike Miles, who implemented a pay-for-performance system in the district, as he did at his previous district in Colorado. “So years of service and the advance degrees are checklist-type things.”

Yet the backlash in North Carolina grew so intense that the state is now looking at reinstating the extra pay for those teaching classes related to the subject in which they have an advanced degree. It’s among teacher pay issues lawmakers are considering this summer.

In April, the Wake County Public School System — the largest in North Carolina with about 150,000 — said more than 600 teach-

The comedian Tracy Morgan has filed a lawsuit against WalMart Stores in which he claims the company was partly responsible for a crash on the New Jersey Turnpike last month that seriously injured him and killed another comedian.

The lawsuit was filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in New Jersey, a month after a Wal-Mart truck slammed into the back of a luxury van carrying a group that included Morgan, 45, severely injuring several others and killing

ers had left since the beginning of the school year, an increase of 41 percent over the same period the year before.

One district official blamed a lack of a significant pay raise in recent years along with the phasing out of tenure and extra pay for advanced degrees. Human Resources Superintendent Doug Thilman called the figures “alarming” but “not surprising.”

Tim Barnsback, who teaches an engineering program at a middle school in Burke County, N.C., is among educators who have put off pursuing an advanced degree until the situation is resolved.

“Intellectually and professionally, it still interests me and makes a lot of sense,” Barnsback said. “But economically, it doesn’t make any sense to do it anymore.”

The extra pay for having a master’s degree in North Carolina accounted for 10 percent of a teacher’s base salary from the state. In the Houston and Dallas school districts, the extra pay started at about $1,000 more annually for first-year teachers.

Dallas’ new system is based on evaluations,

with classroom performance accounting for half, test scores for 35 percent and student surveys making up 15 percent. In Houston, the school district board gave teachers a raise of at least $1,100 and bumped starting pay from nearly $47,000 to $49,100. In both districts, teachers already earning extra pay for advanced degrees won’t see their salaries drop.

One matter of debate is whether the extra training translates to better student test scores.

“We’ve built these salary structures based on years of experience and advanced degrees and both turned out to be not very good indicators of teachers’ performance,” Sandi Jacobs, vice president of the National Council on Teacher Quality, said.

While opponents of the pay perks point to studies that show the advanced degrees don’t make teachers more effective, Gary Henry, an education researcher with Vanderbilt University, says many show mixed results, with effectiveness proven in one subject matter but not others.

more than 24 hours. Roper has pleaded not guilty.

In their suit, the plaintiffs contend that the company should have known how little sleep its driver was operating on, and that it allowed him to commute an unreasonable distance before starting the shift that brought him to New Jersey.

On Saturday, a publicist for Morgan, said the comedian had recently left a rehabilitation center, where he had been recovering from injuries that included a broken leg and broken ribs.

On the morning of June 6, the suit states, Roper reported to a

Wal-Mart distribution center in Smyrna, Del., after traveling there from his home in Georgia — a trip of more than 700 miles that would have taken him more than 11 hours to drive. Wal-Mart, the plaintiffs argue, could have asked him to report to a location closer to his home.

The suit claims that Roper fell asleep at the wheel before the accident. At the time of the crash, Morgan was returning to New York City with several other comedians after performing a comedy show in Delaware.

Two others were hurt in the crash.

NEW YORK — A New York-bound Delta Air Lines flight from Israel declared an emergency and returned to Tel Aviv early Sunday after flaps on the jumbo jet failed to retract properly on takeoff, the airline said.

Flight 469 — a Boeing 747 with 370 passengers and 17 crew members aboard — landed safely back at Ben Gurion Airport around 2:30 a.m. local time, about two hours after it left for John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York.

Delta spokeswoman Jennifer Martin said the crew made the emergency landing “out of an abundance of caution.”

The emergency landing came amid heightened sensitivity in Israel, as the military continues to exchange rocket fire with Palestinian militants. Martin said there was no indication the plane’s problem was related to the conflict or terrorism.

Warning sirens sounded Friday in Tel Aviv as militant rockets targeted the airport, but they were intercepted and there was no disturbance to Israel’s air traffic.

HOUSTON — A 15-year-old girl suburban Houston girl who survived an attack in which her parents and four younger siblings were killed says she’s on the road to recovery.

Cassidy Stay thanked first responders Saturday while speaking to a crowd at an elementary school in her hometown of Spring, the Houston Chronicle reported. It was her first public appearance since the shootings.

“Happiness can be found even in darkest of times, if one remembers to turn on the light,” Stay said, paraphrasing a quote by Albus Dumbledore, the beloved headmaster of the Hogwarts school of wizards from the Harry Potter books.

Stay was released from a hospital Friday, two days after the attack in which her skull was fractured by a bullet graze.

Authorities say her aunt’s ex-husband, Ronald Lee Haskell, stormed into the family’s home Wednesday and fatally shot her parents and four siblings, who ranged in age from 4 to 13 years old. They say Stay survived by playing dead and called police to warn that Haskell intended to go to her grandparents’ house next.

Christie blames Obama for Middle East unrest NASHVILLE, Tenn. — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is partly blaming unrest in the Middle East on President Barack Obama.

The Republican governor says that Obama has not spoken firmly and forcefully on Israel’s behalf and that the country no longer trusts it has the full support of the United States because of him.

Christie’s remarks came Saturday as Israel targeted civilian institutions with suspected ties to the militant organization Hamas and declared it would step up its bombardment of northern Gaza. Israel says it is acting in self-defense against Hamas rockets.

In remarks to reporters at the National Governors Association meeting in Nashville, Tenn., Christie said Israel is not sure that it has America’s full support like it used to. He calls that, quote, “a real failure of this presidency.”

North Korea launches missiles in latest test-fire SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea launched two ballistic missiles into the sea on Sunday, South Korea said, the latest in a series of test-firings seen as expressions of anger over the North’s failure to win talks on receiving outside aid, and over U.S.-South Korean military drills.

The missiles, believed to be of Scud variations, were fired from the North Korean city of Kaesong near the border with the South and had a range of about 311 miles, said a South Korean military official who spoke on condition of anonymity because of department rules.

U.N. Security Council urges Gaza truce, but no sign of lull Palestinian death toll rises to over 150

By Khaled Khazziha and Mohammed Daraghmeh The Associated Press

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Ignoring international appeals for a cease-fire, Israel on Saturday widened its range of Gaza bombing targets to civilian institutions with suspected Hamas ties and announced it would hit northern Gaza “with great force” to prevent rocket attacks from there on Israel. More than 156 Palestinians have been killed in five days of bombardment.

One of the Israeli strikes hit a center for the disabled where Palestinians said two patients were killed and four people seriously hurt. In a second attack Saturday evening, an Israeli warplane flattened the home of Gaza’s police chief and damaged a nearby mosque as evening prayers ended, killing at least 18 people, officials said.

In New York, the U.N. Security Council called unanimously for a cease-fire, while Britain’s foreign minister said he will discuss cease-fire efforts with his American, French and German counterparts on Sunday.

So far, neither Israel nor Gaza’s Hamas rulers have sig-

naled willingness to stop.

Israel has carried out more than 1,200 airstrikes last week to try to diminish Hamas’ ability to fire rockets at Israel, and the chief military spokesman, Brig. Gen. Motti Almoz, said Saturday there would be more strikes, especially in northern Gaza near the Israeli border.

“We are going to attack there with great force in the next 24 hours due to a very large concentration of Hamas efforts in that area,” he said. Late Saturday, the military said it was ordering Palestinians in northern Gaza to evacuate “for their own safety.”

Gaza’s Interior Ministry urged residents in the area to ignore Israel’s warnings and

to stay in their homes, saying the announcement was Israeli “psychological warfare” and an attempt to create confusion.

Shortly after the Israeli announcement, an Israeli warplane struck the home of the Gaza police chief, Taysir al-Batsh, killing at least 18 people and wounding 50, said Health Ministry official Ashraf al-Kidra. He said worshippers were leaving the mosque after evening prayers at the time of

the strike and that some people are believed to be trapped under the rubble.

Meanwhile, Hamas, the Islamic militant group that controls Gaza, has fired nearly 700 rockets and mortars at Israel last week and said it wouldn’t be the first to cease fire.

In a sign that the conflict might widen, Israel fired into Lebanon late Saturday in response to two rockets fired from there at northern Israel. There were no injuries or damage, but Israel fears militant groups in Lebanon may try to open a second front.

Israel has said it’s acting in self-defense against rockets that

have disrupted life across much of the country. It also accuses Hamas of using Gaza’s civilians as human shields by firing rockets from there.

Critics said Israel’s heavy bombardment of one of the most densely populated territories in the world is itself the main factor putting civilians at risk. Sarit Michaeli of the Israeli human rights group B’Tselem said that while using human shields violates international humanitarian law, “this does not give Israel the excuse to violate international humanitarian law as well.”

The Israeli military said it has targeted sites with links to

Hamas, including command centers, and that it issues early warnings before attacking.

Before dawn Saturday, an Israeli missile hit the Palestine Charity, a center for the physically and mentally disabled in the northern Gaza town of Beit Lahiya, said its director, Jamila Alaiweh.

The center is home to nine patients, including four who were spending the weekend with their families away from the center, said Alaiweh. Of the remaining five, two were killed in the strike and three suffered serious burns and other injuries, the director said. A caregiver was also injured, she added.

Civilians pay price for U.N. warns Iraq of potential for ‘chaos’ Ukrainian forces’ gains

promising in the interest of the Iraqi people.”

In Baghdad, gunmen in fourwheel drive vehicles raided two buildings in a housing complex in the Zayounah neighborhood late Saturday, killing at least 33 people, including 29 women, police said. They say at least 18 people were wounded.

An Interior Ministry official and hospital officials confirmed the casualty figures.

The motive behind the killings was not clear, but police said there are suspicions the buildings were being used as a brothel.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to brief the media.

Prime Minister Nouri alMaliki, who has ruled the country since 2006, is under pressure to step aside. His government’s inability to prevent the attack, let alone roll back the militant advance, has sapped confidence in his ability to hold Iraq together and lift it out of the crisis.

BAGHDAD — The U.N. urged Iraq’s leaders Saturday to overcome their deep divisions and move quickly to form a new government that can unite the country and confront a surging militant threat, warning that failure to do so “risks plunging the country into chaos.”

The Sunni insurgent blitz over the past month has driven Iraq into its deepest crisis since the last American troops left in 2011, pushing bloodshed to levels unseen since the height of the Iraq War, sending SunniShiite tensions soaring and raising the specter of a nation cleaved in three along ethnic and sectarian lines.

Iraq’s new parliament is scheduled on Sunday to hold its second session amid hopes that lawmakers can quickly decide on a new prime minister, president and speaker of parliament — the first steps toward forming a new government. It failed to make any progress in its first session.

U.N special envoy to Iraq, Nickolay Mladenov, called on lawmakers to attend the meeting and forge an agreement on new leaders. He warned of dire consequences if the current political deadlock drags on.

“It will only serve the interests of those who seek to divide the people of Iraq and destroy their chances for peace and prosperity,” he said in a statement. “Iraq needs a team that can bring people together.

Now is not the time for mutual accusations, now is the time for moving forward and com-

MARINKA, Ukraine — War came to this small farm town Friday night in the form of rockets that crashed into an apartment building near a rebel base, killing a man while he was watching television in his living room.

It was the first such attack in Marinka, southeast of Donetsk, the rebel stronghold in eastern Ukraine’s pro-Russian insurgency, and appeared to be part of a broader advance by Ukrainian forces in the east on Saturday.

The military hit rebel positions in Horlivka, a crucial town to the north, and in Karlovka, a town with a strategic bridge.

But while the Ukrainian forces might have scored tactical victories, they were not winning any friends in Marinka, where the assumption was they were to blame. The attack there left five civilians dead and four wounded, according to the regional government, a grim sign of the imprecision and blunt force of the weapons being used by both sides in this war, which began this spring when pro-Russian rebels seized Ukraine’s southeastern edge and declared independence.

“Pigs,” said a man with gray hair who was wiping away tears.

“People were sleeping in their beds.”

A Ukrainian military officer, who asked that his name not be used because he was not authorized to speak to the news media, said the Ukrainians did not have artillery positions close enough to hit Marinka.

“Our artillery just wouldn’t have reached there,” the officer said. “It’s as simple as that.”

A military spokesman, Vladislav Seleznyov, said Ukraine did not use its air power or heavy artillery against rebel targets that were close to civilians.

But the proximity of civilians

did not stop the Ukrainians from shelling in and around Slovyansk, the former rebel stronghold they took back this month. And rebels in Marinka showed a reporter exploded rocket casings and a gaping hole in the animal feed factory where they were based, as evidence that the rockets had come from the Ukrainian military. Two rebels had been injured, they said.

Across the street from the factory was the apartment building that took the worst hit, No. 6 Zavodskaya Street, a gray brick building rimmed with pretty gardens of brown-eyed Susans and marigolds. A hole opened into the living room, which had collapsed in on itself.

Igor Nersisyan, a retiree who lives on the second floor, said he had helped a neighbor dig her husband out from under the rubble early Saturday. The man, whom Nersisyan identified as Victor Belotserkovny, was dead when they reached him.

“They are trying to destroy peaceful people,” said Nersisyan, who blamed the Ukrainian military, as residents with bags of belongings walked away from the building.

There were unconfirmed reports on Saturday that Ukrainian warplanes struck targets near Dzerzhinsk, a town north of here, killing hundreds of rebels.

Also on Saturday, another rocket attack killed at least four people on the southern edge of Donetsk. Local residents said the attack took place around 4 p.m. By evening, businesses and homes were still in flames, and bodies lay outside a building that had been hit.

political wrangling in the days and weeks ahead.

The militants, who have tapped into the deep disaffection among Iraq’s minority Sunnis with al-Maliki, have swept through most of the country’s predominantly Sunni areas in the north and west. The front lines have largely stabilized since their offensive encountered greater resistance in majority Shiite areas, although heavy fighting rages on.

On Saturday, Iraqi troops supported by Shiite militiamen battled Sunni militants who had seized at least partial control of a military base outside the town of Muqdadiyah, about 60 miles north of Baghdad. The troops and pro-government fighters succeeded in pushing insurgents out of the nearby hamlet of Nofal, but the base remained split between the warring sides, police officials said.

Torn: Residents have varied opinions on federal immigration policy Continued from Page A-1 to a Border Patrol agent to announce that they were immigrating to America, Burch said. Instead, they landed in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which is overseeing immigrant detention centers in Artesia and other U.S. cities.

Now this arid, church-going and largely Republican town 1,800 miles and a world away from Washington, D.C., finds itself torn between compassion for the immigrant mothers and children and questions over how quickly they will be returned to their own countries.

The training center, where the immigrants are being held, is a secure government compound. ICE says it was selected as a temporary detention center “because it offers a more appropriate environment for the care and custody of adults with children and is cost-effective.”

Nonetheless, word that people accused of violating immigration laws were being held in Artesia sent nerves jangling.

To explain Artesia’s role in helping with federal immigration enforcement, Burch held a town meeting that drew 400 people — a crowd so large the city had to hold the meeting in the recreation center to accommodate everyone.

Burch said the meeting quelled some of the raw emotion, but tempers could flare if deportation hearings stall or the town continues to regularly receive immigrants accused of illegal entry. The compound has enough beds for about 700 immigrants.

Artesia, part of the oil-rich Permian Basin, is a smaller version of Odessa, Texas. Odessa became famous because of Buzz Bissinger’s book Friday Night Lights, about the allure of high school football in a town where oil is king and roughnecks who man the rigs are integral to the economy.

“I sure wish September would hurry up,” Burch said one recent day, eager for the start of football season for the Artesia High School Bulldogs, a perennial powerhouse in New Mexico athletics. “That would take people’s minds off this.”

Artesia, like America itself, has a wealth of opinions about how the federal government should handle immigration policy.

“I would like to see our borders closed and our patrol people better protected,” Nancy Husselman said as she stood in front of the Chamber of Commerce building, situated near the vast Navajo Refinery. Husselman is the manager of Artesia’s Drug and Crime Coalition, whose mission is to make the town safer.

James Bly, a U.S. military veteran who lives a few miles south of town, said he was not alarmed by Artesia having a role as a detention center for

immigrants.

“I don’t care. They’re just people looking for a way out,” he said outside the downtown post office in Artesia.

Many townspeople and others from Carlsbad, Roswell, Clovis, Alamogordo and Las Cruces donated books, toys, clothing and shoes for children being held at the center.

The gifts filled a wide section of the Artesia Chamber of Commerce until ICE agents picked them last week and delivered them to the immigrant children. An ICE spokeswoman said the donations were evidence that enforcing immigration laws is marked by a humanitarian spirit in Artesia.

Even so, Jeh Johnson, secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, talked tough when he visited the Artesia detention center on Friday. He said his aim was by-the-book enforcement of laws in dealing with immigrant families, and that would lead to rapid deportations.

“At the end of the day, our border is not open to illegal migration,” Johnson told reporters assembled at the compound.

An ICE spokeswoman asked the media not to photograph the faces of immigrants, calling them “our residents.” But during a tour on Friday, officials carefully steered reporters to empty portions of the compound. Not one immigrant was seen.

The ICE spokeswoman said the immigrants receive a tutorial on their due-process rights when they are bused to Artesia. Some may seek asylum because they fear for their safety in their home country, but most will be deported after getting their day in immigration court, she said.

Each case is different, so there is not just one answer to how long the process will take, but Johnson said Homeland Security wants expedited removal of the immigrants.

in Artesia these days is whether immigrants have been vaccinated against infectious diseases.

Dr. Jon Krohmer, of the ICE Health Service Corps, said no significant health problems had been found in the immigrants in Artesia.

One child had lice. Another suspected case of lice turned out to be nothing. Overall, Krohmer said, the immigrant children were no different health-wise from kids at any day care center.

Clinical social workers, along with medical personnel, are on site. No clinics, hospitals or medical offices in Artesia will be called on to provide health care for immigrant detainees, an ICE spokeswoman said.

For now, there is no school for the children. The spokeswoman said the detention center’s plan is to mirror the American school year. Because it’s summer, no teachers are being brought into the complex.

If children remain when the regular school year begins, ICE will provide teachers inside the compound.

None of the kids would go to Artesia schools.

Still, tax dollars are being spent in the detention program, a sore point for many in the region.

Max Flores, who lives in nearby Dexter, was among those concerned about the cost of housing immigrants who crossed illegally into the United States.

“We don’t agree with that,” Flores said as he left the post office in Artesia. “Now we’re going to have to spend money to send them back.”

Congress’ decision to increase spending for border security has contributed mightily to the economic boom in Artesia.

Since the 2001 terrorist attacks, the U.S. Border Patrol has expanded from 6,000 agents to 21,300. Because

“The goal is a couple of days,” he said.

Mayor Burch has been meeting weekly with federal employees at the training center, keeping tabs on the immigrant population. It doubled overnight Thursday, going from 217 to more than 400.

Burch said he has been told more than 90 percent will be deported. The ICE spokeswoman pegged the figure even higher, at 95 percent.

Burch said many being held in Artesia were from Honduras and El Salvador. He knew of one mother with child from Nicaragua.

Burch, an affable man of 70 who spent a long career in human resource jobs around the country before returning home to Artesia, said one boy held at the compound made an enormous impression on him.

A wisp with heart but not much coordination, the boy entertained himself by trying to kick a soccer ball. He often whiffed and fell on his backside.

The boy laughed each time he crashlanded.

“You can’t laugh in Spanish,” the mayor said, adding that all who watched realized the little boy was like the ones growing up in the Permian Basin.

Schooling and medical problems of immigrants, if any, will be handled inside the complex by ICE. “It’s not causing the city to expend money,” Burch said of the detention program.

For his constituents, the immigrants are out of sight, though not out of mind. “The truth is, you don’t see them,” Burch said.

Questions about the health and backgrounds of the immigrants have lessened, Burch said, but some in town say they still have concerns.

A woman working the front desk of a hotel said one of the frequent topics

the training academy for all of them is in Artesia, the town has benefited economically from heightened border security, Burch said.

He estimates that the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center means 1,800 to 2,000 jobs for Artesia.

These gains have augmented the boom in oil, Artesia’s main industry.

The mammoth Navajo Refinery, abutting the downtown business district, provides the town with its skyline.

A few miles away from the refinery, immigrants under federal detention are housed in rooms with eight bunks and a television set. They will never see the town, only the inside of the compound that will serve as a makeshift home until immigration judges hear their cases.

Secretary Johnson said he wants to send a message loud and clear that unlawful immigration will not be tolerated.

His hope, he said, is to control the border and stop the con artists who exploit Central American citizens desperate to enter the United States.

President Barack Obama proposes to spend another $3.7 billion to hire more immigration judges and open more detention centers for immigrants accused of unlawfully entering the United States.

Husselman, the woman who wants closed borders, calls Artesia “a compassionate and loving community” that without warning became a flash point for a national controversy.

“None of us like the fact that this has happened to immigrants,” she said. “As far as the bigger issues [on immigration policy], we’re all a little frustrated.”

Audit: Process of reviewing 8 million votes will take several weeks Continued from Page A-1 to prevent Afghanistan’s first democratic transfer of power from collapsing. Both candidates, Abdullah Abdullah and Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai, had said the election was marred by fraud, but both had also claimed victory.

Tensions rose Tuesday when Abdullah threatened to form his own government, raising the possibility of an ethnically and regionally divided Afghanistan just as U.S. troops prepare to complete their withdrawal.

Kerry made the announcement flanked by Abdullah, a former foreign minister, and Ahmadzai, a former finance minister, after intense negotiations involving shuttling between the two sides and meetings with President Hamid Karzai.

The audit will take several weeks, and Kerry said he and

the candidates would ask Karzai to postpone the inauguration, now scheduled for Aug. 2.

The audit will begin within 24 hours, Kerry said. Ballot boxes will be flown into the capital by the NATO-led military coalition in Afghanistan, and United Nations and other international observers will watch the entire process.

“This is unquestionably a tense and difficult moment,” Kerry said, “but I am very pleased that the two candidates who stand here with me today and President Karzai have stepped up and shown a significant commitment to compromise.”

Jan Kubis, the U.N. special representative in Afghanistan, called on other nations to send extra observers to assist with the audit as soon as possible.

The two candidates spent the day inside the U.S. Embassy building, holding separate meet-

ings with Kerry, according to campaign officials. Kerry then traveled to the presidential palace to talk to Karzai. Talks had continued into the early evening without food or drink because of Ramadan, during which Muslims fast during the day.

Discussions concerned how to determine how many ballots should be re-examined for fraud and how to ensure that the audit was impartial. Both sides had wrangled over the technical details, in particular the threshold for selecting which ballots should be reviewed.

By midday, Mahmoud Saikal, an adviser to Abdullah, said that “preliminary progress” had been made and that the campaign was waiting to see if the proposals would be accepted by the other side. But a spokesman for Ahmadzai, Abdullah Poyan, said the discussions remained “complicated.”

Kerry had to seek not only

agreement by the two candidates but also acceptance by Karzai, who will step down after 13 years in power and has by all accounts remained a powerful presence behind the scenes.

In the first round of voting on April 5, Abdullah emerged the winner against 11 other candidates, with 45 percent of the vote to Ahmadzai’s 31 percent.

Because neither won more than 50 percent of the vote, a required runoff between the two was held on June 14. Preliminary results from the runoff show Ahmadzai leaping ahead with 56 percent of the vote, and Abdullah with 44 percent. The turnout also increased by more than a million voters in the runoff, to 8 million.

Abdullah’s campaign has accused his opponents of conducting extensive institutional fraud, and has alleged that members of the Independent Election Commission, government officials and Ahmadzai supporters

orchestrated large-scale ballot stuffing to enable Ahmadzai to win the presidency.

Ahmadzai’s team has said that fraud took place on both sides and insists that his better showing in the runoff was the result of an energetic campaign to mobilize his fellow ethnic Pashtuns to vote for him.

The dispute, which has delayed results for nearly a month since the initial vote, comes amid a rise in violence around the country. Civilians are killed and wounded more frequently now in Afghanistan than at any point since the arrival of U.S. forces, the International Crisis Group said in a statement Saturday.

Seven members of the Afghan security forces were killed in clashes with the Taliban east of the capital in Laghman province Saturday. Two tribal elders were killed in separate attacks in southern Afghanistan, electricity

has been knocked out in the city of Kandahar and a bomb killed two people in Jalalabad.

Kerry’s mission this year was much like one he undertook five years ago for the 2009 presidential election, trying to rescue a vote marred by huge fraud and resolve differences between two candidates who were both claiming victory. At that time, Karzai was campaigning against Abdullah for a second term.

Kerry’s task might have been even harder this time, since history has, if anything, hardened the opposing sides. Abdullah believes that he was robbed of victory in 2009, and Karzai has since overseen changes meant to reduce the international involvement in the election process.

At stake is the future of democracy in Afghanistan. The power struggle between the candidates had threatened to once again plunge the country into ethnic violence.

LOS ANGELES — Adolescent girls in braids and pigtails and teenage boys wearing jeans and sneakers sat alongside their parents in the courtroom of Immigration Judge Frank Travieso to hear how long they might be allowed to stay in the United States.

Travieso grabbed four thick books and dropped each one on his desk with a thud, warning the families in his courtroom about the thousands of pages of immigration laws and interpretations that could affect their cases and urging them to get a lawyer.

“This is even smaller print,” he said of the 1,200-page book containing regulations during the hearing last month. “I am not trying to scare you, but I’m trying to ensure your children get a full and fair hearing.”

He then sent them on their way and told them to report back in February.

The scene is one that could become more common as the country’s already backlogged immigration courts brace for a deluge of tens of thousands of Central American children arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border in recent months.

The court system is so overwhelmed that it can currently take three years to get a hearing, and many believe the delays will only get worse

in the months ahead. For many immigrants, the delays in the system work in their favor because they know they have time before their cases are resolved.

“This situation just happens to be a magnitude unlike anything we have ever seen,” said Lauren Alder Reid, counsel for legislative and public affairs at the U.S. Justice Department’s Executive Office for Immigration Review, which runs the courts.

Immigration courts in the U.S. have long been troubled. The courts, overseen by the Department of Justice, have more than 375,000 cases and just 243 judges, according to the agency.

It can take months or years to get hearings for immigrants who aren’t in detention facilities, let

alone a resolution. Immigration lawyers said judges are already setting hearings for 2017.

The Obama administration has said it will move quickly to process thousands of immigrant children and families arriving on the Texas border fleeing violence and extortion from gangs in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. Since October, more than 57,000 unaccompanied children have reached the U.S., prompting the government to set up temporary shelters and fly immigrants to other states to be processed.

Officials have asked Congress for $3.7 billion in emergency funding to cope with the crisis, including the hiring of more judges.

Since the influx, the immigration courts have temporarily reassigned seven judges to hear cases in southern Texas and three judges to handle hearings at a recently created New Mex-

ico detention facility via teleconferencing, Alder Reid said. She could not say how many cases have been postponed but expects the latest influx of immigrants will have a significant impact.

The huge flow of immigrants into the system has also created legal issues for the immigrants themselves.

Attorneys are typically not provided at government expense or required in immigration court, and children may end up in court on their own.

Megan McKenna, advocacy director for Kids in Need of Defense, said her organization’s offices in Houston and New York were flooded this month with requests for pro-bono lawyers.

She estimates the number of children lacking attorneys has jumped from about half to at least 70 percent since the influx began three years ago.

Victor: Family, friends say teen had successful future ahead of him Continued from Page A-1

A volatile start Victor barely made it into the world. His mother, Donna Villalpando, had long struggled with drug addiction. On the way to the hospital in Albuquerque in May 1998, she had to be shocked back to life three times, said one of Victor’s adoptive mothers, Patty Shure. When Victor was born, doctors found heroin coursing through his tiny body.

Within days, the state’s Children, Youth and Families Department took the boy away from his mother. Shure and Mary Shoemaker took him in as foster parents and later adopted him.

The boy’s grandmother, Viola Villalpando, said her daughter, a mother of six, could have regained custody of her child if she had completed a drug rehabilitation program. But she never did. She later died of an overdose in Española in 2012.

She died never revealing who Victor’s father was.

The grandparents hired a lawyer to try to get custody themselves, but the lawyer gave up after putting up a legal fight for three years.

“All of sudden, the lawyer threw the towel in,” Viola Villalpando said. “He said, ‘We’re not going to win anyway, let them keep him.’ ” The legal fight aside, Villalpando’s adoptive parents and his biological family grew close.

“One thing I’ve got to say about Mary and Patty is that they were good foster mothers,” Viola Villalpando said. “That’s one thing I’ve got to say about them. I appreciate them not changing his name, them not keeping us from seeing him.”

Victor grew up in El Rito, a tiny community about 60 miles north of Santa Fe. Every June, he visited his biological siblings and grandparents in Colorado.

Early on, he showed an aptitude for gymnastics. At age 6, he began attending Moving Arts Española, a nonprofit performing arts center. It was there that he developed a passion for dance. First modern dance, then ballet and break dancing. At 15, he began teaching there.

Many of his dance teachers said Victor had a natural talent for dancing, as well as the charisma and leadership skills ideal for teaching.

“He was very fortunate to be mentored by a lot of good people in the community,” Peña said. “He was surrounded by a community of socially active people. And he drew from that and started to reflect back out through teaching.”

But Victor also struggled socially, his adoptive family said.

He hated to be teased and could be extremely sensitive, taking things too personally and, out of empathy, sometimes treating other people’s problems as if they were his own. Family members recalled how at age 2, when his adoptive grandfather died, Victor spent hours crying over the body until he had to be pulled away.

At age 12, he did the same when one of the family’s dogs died, they said.

“Sometimes I think that the circumstances of his birth left him with a vulnerability that was bigger than social delays or academic impacts,” Shure wrote in a letter to The New Mexican.

“It left him raw—[t]he electricity of his mother being shocked back to life [three] times on the way to the hospital, while in labor with Victor, and the drugs in his system. He lost, or never

The next morning, Villalpando texted Shure and asked her to bring him a new set of clothes because he wanted to go a graduation party.

Villalpando told his friend that he was going out for a walk and would be back. During his walk, he called 911.

“I’m over here at Lovin’ Oven,” he told the dispatcher, referring to a nearby doughnut shop along the strip, “and there’s some crazy kid out here. … I don’t know what he’s doing, but it looks like he had a gun in his hands, and I don’t know if it’s real.”

He told the dispatcher his name was James, and he said the suspicious person was wearing “a gray shirt with a few holes, red shoes and ripped off jeans, and he also has a green staff.” The description fit the clothes Victor was wearing.

Victor told the dispatcher the person needed “help fast,” according to a transcript of the call.

“When I first walked out here,” he said, “he was just screaming and like hitting himself in the head, and he said that he wanted to die. But I don’t know.”

When two Española officers arrived, the only person they saw was Victor, talking on a cellphone, apparently to the dispatcher.

In the wake of Victor’s death, Española officials have decried the mental health system in New Mexico and Rio Arriba County, and they have secured a $12,000 emergency grant to provide crisis intervention training to teachers and police. developed a filter that separates the rest of us from the world around us.”

Adoption struggles Among Victor’s friends was Amelia Ortega, 15. The two met at Moving Arts Española when they were both small children.

Like Victor, Ortega had been adopted at a young age. That connection created a natural bond between them. They confided in each other and shared the complex emotions they felt growing up as adopted children.

“We would talk about how we would have different siblings from different families,” Ortega said. “In a way, it’s different circles in your life. But in his mind, it was just one big family.”

Viola Villalpando said that her grandson struggled to understand the family situation while growing up. When Victor was younger, she said, he would cry and ask to stay longer with his biological family when he visited in the summer. And even though it broke her heart, she said, she explained to him it was not possible.

“He never did understand why he couldn’t live here with us in Colorado,” Viola Villalpando said. “And I don’t know that, at 16, if he finally understood why he was adopted. And I never asked him again.”

Ortega’s mother, Charlotte Jaramillo, a dance teacher at Moving Arts Española and a retired high school teacher, was familiar with the kinds of emotions Victor must have been feeling. She had seen her own adopted daughter struggle with similar quesitons.

“Being adopted, that’s got be a whole other issue,” Jaramillo said. “When you see your siblings in another home, they must have thought the grass was always greener wherever their siblings were.”

Victor’s adoptive family twice put him in therapy, starting at age 10, to help him sort through his adoption issues. He returned to therapy again two years ago after his biological mother died, his family said.

Still, said his biological sister, Victoria Villalpando, he never revealed any suicidal tendencies, and he largely kept his troubles to himself.

Signs of trouble In January, school officials at McCurdy School in the Española Valley reported that a student was making bomb threats.

They identified Villalpando as a possible suspect. State police investigated, searching his cellphone and his home, but they found no evidence to substantiate the suspicion.

Whether he made the threats or not, Victor expressed difficulties at the school. He confided to Ortega that he was often bullied because he was a male dancer.

Later, when he applied to the New Mexico School for the Arts in Santa Fe, hoping to study dance, he detailed some of his dismay.

“I was never the kind of kid who was liked,” he wrote in his application. “I was always bullied at school. I felt I never fit in.

But when I dance, I fit in with the world.”

The school accepted him, and he was set to start in the fall.

Workers struggle in wealthly enclave

Washington state candidate scraps shotgun-blast ad against Congress

New York’s exclusive playground shows income disparity

RICHLAND, Wash. — A Democrat running for Congress in conservative central Washington on Saturday removed an online campaign video that showed him blasting an elephant-shaped piñata with a shotgun.

The Tri-City Herald reported that the advertisement for Estakio Beltran generated a lot of criticism after it was posted last week, including from a group founded by former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, the Arizona Democrat who survived a gunshot wound to the head in 2011.

“Mr. Beltran’s ad showing him shooting a stuffed elephant — the longtime symbol of the Republican Party — is irresponsible and offensive,” said the statement from Americans for Responsible Solutions. “This kind of misguided imagery and rhetoric on both sides of the political spectrum just fur-

By Frank Eltman The Associated Press

SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. — This is a town where people are so rich that a $2 million home can be a handyman’s special.

A town where the thrift shop is stocked with donations of designer dresses and handbags.

But Southampton, with its privet hedges, pristine beaches and some estates costing tens of millions, also is where 40 percent of children get free or reduced school lunches, where a food pantry serves up to 400 clients a month and where some doctors and nurses share homes owned by the local hospital because they can’t afford to buy or rent.

Studies show the wealth gap separating the rich from everyone else is widening, and few places in the country illustrate that as starkly as Long Island’s Hamptons — America’s summer playground for the haves and have-mores, where even middle-class workers struggle with the high cost of living.

“We have a tremendous amount of millionaires who live 3 miles from the food pantry, and they really have no idea that there’s a need in this community,” said Mary Ann Tupper, who retired last month after 21 years as the executive director of Human Resources of the Hamptons, a charity that assists 6,000 people annually through its food pantry and other services for the working poor.

“In the summer they’re working and everything is pretty good, but come the winter, all the nannies, the gardeners, the

pool people, all those people are out of work, and then there’s no money,” Tupper said. “The income disparity is tremendous.”

Kerry Lewendoski, who succeeded Tupper, adds: “The people aren’t just coming here to work in the summer. They live here; they have established homes and kids enrolled in the schools. Southampton is their home, and they still have trouble getting by.”

Located on southeastern Long Island 80 miles from New York City, Southampton is one of several towns and villages stretching east along 40 miles of the Atlantic Ocean that collectively are known as the Hamptons. Census figures showed a 2010 population of 57,000 and a median income of $78,815.

But statistics in the Hamptons are an elusive notion, since many of the summertime denizens with their multimilliondollar incomes identify themselves as residents of New York City or elsewhere. In the first quarter of 2014, the average selling price for a home in South-

ampton town was $1,845,431, though some oceanfront estates go for over $100 million.

Celebrities spotted hanging out in the Hamptons include Christie Brinkley, Rachael Ray, Kelly Ripa and Howard Stern, among other members of high society in New York.

Many of those who work in the Hamptons — painters, landscapers teachers, even journalists — live west of the region in suburban Long Island and commute as many as three hours round-trip daily. From early spring to late autumn, the one primary road in and out of the Hamptons is jammed most

mornings with pickup trucks and vans filled with tradespeople headed east.

“There’s tons of work out here because this is where the money is,” David Hahn said while trimming 16-foot hedges on a 10-acre Southampton estate where he has worked for two decades. His 30-mile commute sometimes takes up to three hours round-trip.

Kimberly Piazza is a secretary in her husband’s sod business and lives in the North Sea community in Southampton town, several miles north of the oceanfront estates. Coming out of the local general store, she said local milk prices are as high as $5.99 a gallon and eggs sell for up to $4 a dozen — nearly double what those staples cost elsewhere on Long Island.

Gasoline prices are 50 cents to a dollar more a gallon at most stations in the Hamptons.

“The image is that we’re all pretty much rich, hoity-toity, well-to-do people,” she said.

“And while you do have some of those people, a majority of us are still working class.”

At Southampton Hospital — the region’s primary medical facility that has 25,000 emergency room visits annually — administrators wrestled for years with staffing shortages because qualified applicants could not afford the cost of living.

thers the lack of balance in our nation’s debate about guns.”

Giffords and her husband, retired astronaut Mark Kelly, started Americans for Responsible Solutions in 2013 after the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in Connecticut.

The video opened with Beltran posing in a high-desert landscape.

“They call me a long shot.

They say I can’t win in this district,” his voice-over says. “But what happens to an elephant when it stands around, doing nothing, for too long?”

The camera panned to an elephant piñata, and then back to Beltran, who blasted it in the backside with a pump-action shotgun.

“My name is Estakio Beltran,” he said. “And I approved this message.”

New schools receive green features A

dded to the wonderful features described in the article (“SFPS prepares to unveil new schools” July 7), we have also responded to energy and water conservation priorities. The combined 140 kilowatt total from the two new solar carports will save the taxpayers approximately $30,000 annually at current Public Service Co. of New Mexico rates and offset carbon emissions by 396,144 pounds each year, boosting Santa Fe Public Schools’ solar generation to nearly a half megawatt by fall 2014. A 25,000-gallon water catchment cistern is online at Atalaya Elementary, and 1.28 gallon flush toilets, half-gallon flush urinals and faucet aerators are a SFPS standard now. The new tracks and fields are synthetic turf,

the landscaping is on drip irrigation and drought-tolerant, our heating and cooling are centrally controlled.

Revisit public option Appearing in the story, (“Hobby Lobby wins case on birth control,” July 1) is this: “Justice Samuel Alito wrote … there are ways for the administration to ensure women get the birth control they want.”

Or, there is nothing in the Constitution that would prevent the government from providing contraceptives to anyone needing them.

A single-payer program, such as we have now in this country in the form of Medicare, would be one of the “ways.” President Barack Obama campaigned on a public option for anyone in this country, regardless of age, to sign up for Medicare. For unclear reasons, the president scuttled the public option while getting his Affordable Care Act passed into law. Now it’s time for him and us to revisit that idea.

With the Supreme Court decision allowing private employers such as Hobby Lobby to deny health care to its employees, the time is right for all Americans to demand access to Medicare, regardless of age or employment status.

I am appalled at the anger, fear and hatred displayed by citizens of Artesia at the City Council meeting and know it is not representative of everyone there. My primary goal was first to meet the needs of the women and children being detained, and secondly, to provide an opportunity for those who support humane treatment of all detainees to be seen and heard.

My concern now is the plan set forward to send the children back and not recognize them as political refugees seeking asylum. We are talking to officials to seek a more just resolution as we continue to ask for donations.

Immigrants deserve Christian love S

have expressed outrage at the decision to house these people. At issue for many is the presumed illegal presence. Romans 13 calls for reasonable submission to the sovereign laws of the land and its governing authorities. Therefore, having presumed the immigrant’s guilt for violating the law, Romans 13 is hastily referenced to legitimize swift and decisive punitive measures both in the name of Scriptural authority and legal obligation. This, in spite of the reality that our criminal code both presumes innocence and calls for just and humane treatment of arrestees who are imprisoned.

Reading further in the same chapter of Romans, Scripture calls for love as the fulfillment of the law rather than legalistic and punitive adherence to the law. Jesus Christ modeled the priority of human compassion over legalistic adherence throughout his ministry. In speaking of loving God and loving neighbor, Jesus told the parable of three men.

Two upheld the letter of the law and maintained their ritual holiness and

purity by avoiding the stranger in need. Yet it was one who broke the law and crossed the cultural, religious, and moral codes of the day to meet a stranger in need. We remember that lawbreaker as the Good Samaritan. Therefore, even in the midst of the legitimately illegal status of their presence on U.S. soil, the commands of God in Jesus Christ are for love, not fear or punishment.

Much of the controversy and emotionally charged outrage over these immigrants is endemic of our own nation’s broken immigration system and the political rancor over how to best address immigration on a comprehensive, defensible and humanitarian basis. While the current situation raises the issues in very powerful ways, expressing hatred toward, fear of or anger with the women and children housed in Artesia serves nothing to resolve the national debate. Rather, it only diverts precious energy and engenders a destructive spirit of mistrust that is contrary to Christian love and hospitality.

As a matter of faith and biblical authenticity, it is vital that all Christians approach the immigrants with utmost compassion. As the prophet Zechariah made clear in the seventh chapter, God does not honor proper religious ritual and sacrifice when the people of God also oppress the widow, orphan and alien. It is a sentiment echoed in Amos 5:21-24, Micah 6:6-8, Isaiah 1:10-20, Hosea 6:6, Hosea 8:11-14, Jeremiah 7:22-23 and Matthew 25:31-46. God has made the command clear. This is no time for fear. In faith, our call is to be the good news and stand in solidarity with Christ with confidence and love. Our call is perhaps best summarized in the words of Micah 6:8, which reads that we are to love kindness, seek justice and walk humbly with God. The Rev. David Wilson Rogers is pastor at First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Carlsbad.

Helping refugees amid chilly greeting in Artesia

L

ast week, my friend and I saw a report by an Albuquerque TV station concerning the refugees recently detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

It was reported that some detainees would be housed in the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Artesia and included statements from residents at an Artesia City Council meeting. When we discussed the events taking place, my friend, a retired teacher and current volunteer at the Literacy Center in Carlsbad, mentioned that she always had a few handmade baby quilts and wondered if it would be helpful to get those to the women and children.

I called the chamber of commerce and was given a list of suggested items to donate. Those included

women’s clothing, infant-to-17-yearold children’s clothing, diapers and toys. I posted this information on Facebook and immediately began to get messages from teachers and students expressing a desire to help.

We established a drop-off point in the village of Loving and then planned our first trip. The response was overwhelming, as I received messages from Santa Fe and Albuquerque as well as Carlsbad, Hobbs and Roswell. We picked up supplies on Tuesday and couldn’t fit all the donations in my SUV. When we arrived in Artesia, loaded with supplies, we were given a bit of a cold welcome by the woman in charge at their chamber of commerce. We were told we could not park near the building where service vehicles were

allowed to unload. We were able to obtain a dolly and then moved our car onto the loading area anyway, because it was just too much of a chore to unload it all and move it a long distance. Maintenance personnel were visible but did not offer to assist.

There was a small area where donations had been placed, and we more than quadrupled what was there. Again, we were met with an unenthusiastic welcome. We inquired if there were plans for educational activities for the children and were told we could not visit the detainees. We reiterated that we were not trying to visit but wondered if plans were being developed to meet the educational needs. The receptionist took our information and said we would be contacted.

o quote the title from a bad old Bob Hope movie: Boy, did I get a wrong number!

Just last October in this column, I made a prediction (I never learn …). Looking at the latest campaign finance reports back then, I contended we might not be seeing wall-to-wall attack ads in the governor’s race in 2014.

I actually was right for the most part about the ads Gov. Susana Martinez would run during primary season: “The primary ads I expect to see from Martinez would be positive, resembling the colorful mailers her political action committee has sent during the past couple of years, Steve Terrell touting legislation she Roundhouse has gotten through Roundup the Legislature (tax cuts, anyone?) and stressing the bipartisan support she has received.”

As it turned out, all but one of the governor’s primary ads were positive. The exception wasn’t exactly a bombshell. It was the one in which photos of all five of the Democratic primary candidates were replaced by photos of former Gov. Bill Richardson.

But then, last October, pondering the general election, I wrote, “if her poll numbers hold and the Democratic nominee doesn’t seem to be making a dent, like Richardson, she might have the luxury of basically ignoring her opponent.”

Oops. As we all know, after the primary, the Martinez campaign and the Republican Governors Association have run a constant barrage of attack ads on Democratic candidate Gary King.

Let’s take a little trip down Memory Lane, back to that golden year of 2006, when Richardson was running for reelection. Like Martinez, he had millions in his campaign coffers, high approval ratings and a general election opponent, John Dendahl, who was severely underfunded. (Dendahl died last year.)

In late June — after Dendahl was nominated by the state GOP’s Central Committee when the little-known primary winner withdrew — Richardson released a scathing radio ad tearing into Dendahl.

There were no more ads until late July.

It talked about Richardson’s support of gun rights and punishing criminals. It didn’t talk about punishing Dendahl.

The next ad was downright soft, featuring Richardson’s wife, Barbara Richardson, talking about child immunization and domestic violence. Later came the “funny” ads that received national attention, Old West movie parodies featuring Richardson in cowboy regalia on horseback.

And so it went up to the landslide election. It was as if Dendahl had disappeared.

I’m writing this on Thursday. So far it’s been a week since Martinez or the Republican governors have released a new ad. Maybe the attacks on King are going to slow down until after Labor Day when the general public starts to pay serious attention.

A modest proposal (sure to be ignored): Last week’s campaign finance reports showed Martinez with more than 37 times the cash on hand as King. Thirtyseven times.

That reminded me of an item in a May 2006 Roundhouse Roundup column: “Since Richardson’s such a sure bet, why doesn’t he give the rest of his campaign war chest to charity? Or, if not the whole thing, give enough away so he only has, say, 100 times the amount [his opponent] has. … The only people who would suffer would be campaign consultants and television-ad reps.

“And what Richardson would lose in campaign cash-on-hand, he’d be repaid 10 times over in national publicity. He’d get to play the good guy on Larry King and Bill O’Reilly, talking about how campaigns really have gotten too expensive and, doggone it, someone finally had to take a stand, and how it wouldn’t hurt other politicians to follow suit.”

So I’ll suggest the same to Gov. Martinez: Why not just give it to charity? Or buy more books to give to the schoolchildren?

If not all of it, just keep enough so you have, say 10 times the amount King has.

If all the feel-good, goodwill stuff doesn’t appeal to you, just think of the expressions of shock on your critics’ faces if you made that move. That’s got to be worth something.

COMMENTARY: DAVID WILSON ROGERS

outheast New Mexico is facing a crisis that cuts at the heart of Christian faith and practice.

With the recent notification by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) that upward of 600 Central American refugees would be housed at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center campus in Artesia, it has served as a rallying call for many local citizens as well as local elected officials.

Tragically, much of the most vehement responses have been exceptionally negative, couched in fear, fueled in highly politicized rhetoric, and grounded in anything but solid biblical, Christian, moral and humanitarian concerns. As faith leaders and Christian pastors in Eddy and Lea Counties, this is our call to speak a word of Christian grace, morality and common sense in regard to the looming crisis.

Scripture repeatedly, and unapologetically, calls for God’s people to welcome the stranger, the alien, the orphan, the widow and the sojourner. Leviticus 19:33-34 recalls the sacred memory of the time when the people of God were once the unwanted immigrants in Egypt.

Central to the biblical narrative is the call to remember the harsh treatment and slavery inflicted upon the Hebrew people and to live in such a way as to never return such inhumanity upon other aliens. Jesus Christ also emphasized this vital law of God’s grace, compassion and welcome. Most notably, Matthew 25 reminds us that our salvation hinges on caring for “the least of these.”

Furthermore, James writes that for our religious faith to be genuine and authentic, it must make as priority our call to care for the orphans and widows in their distress.

As these immigrant women and children from Central America are brought to our backyard in Eddy County, Christianity demands we respond with compassion.

Extending hospitality to the stranger and welcoming the alien is not a practice that comes easily and also brings an understandable degree of fear. Naturally, we tend to fear that which we do not fully understand.

Accordingly, many in our community

Behavioral health: Go after answers

A

ftershocks from the abrupt decision a year ago to shake up behavioral health service for New Mexicans are still being felt today.

Most importantly, clients across New Mexico say service is not the same and that people are suffering.

Costs are soaring. To date, payments to out-of-state providers — managed care was shifted from 15 New Mexico firms to companies in Arizona — have shot up past $24 million.

And so far, there is little evidence of the widespread fraud that was given as the reason for dumping New Mexico providers.

Yet fraud is the reason that the Human Services Department gave for this abrupt decision, claiming that some $33.8 million in overbilling and possible fraud had been found. The story was this: Problems were first suspected

by Optum Health New Mexico — which oversees managed care services for the state — and then “confirmed” in a second audit. Only immediate suspension of providers would work to ensure continued care for patients.

Reporter Patrick Malone has been unravelling the claims and counter-claims one year into this mess — the state froze Medicaid funding to 15 providers last June — and keeps finding questions that lack adequate answers.

The first, of course, is why the state did not sit down with providers to go over the allegations. It is customary after an audit, when questionable findings are uncovered, to discuss them. The providers were never given a chance to explain. Attorney General Gary King, who is charged with investigating the state’s audit and preparing a criminal case, already has found no evidence of fraud in the cases of two companies. Auditor Hector Balderas, who did get the opportunity to review the audit, discovered problems with its methods. Because HSD kept the audits confidential, even the accused could not see what they are supposed to have done; the taxpayers, who are paying for all of this, have similarly been kept in the dark. There’s no way to evaluate whether fraud occurred or whether the charges are an excuse for a switchover that was already in the works.

After all, before payments were frozen, New Mexico officials already were in Arizona, discussing those companies taking over behavioral health care. Consider what happened next. On June 24, 2013, an audit by Public Consulting Group found some $33.8 million in Medicaid overpayments made to the 15 companies. HSD notified the 15 companies there were “credible allegations of fraud” against them. On June 25, contracts were sent to five Arizona companies to take over behavioral health care management. As Malone reported, talks between state officials and Arizona companies predated the audit results. So did payments. Records show the state of New Mexico paid Agave Health Inc. $172,447 between January 2013 and June 30, 2013, with at least half of that total disbursed before the audit was completed.

Now, we find out that these Arizona companies are fleecing the state. Malone has detailed how payments to Agave for salaries and expenses are at sharply higher rates than those paid to New Mexico companies. He reported, “All five Arizona firms billed the state between $200 an hour and $300 an hour for the salaries of their management and executive teams. A marketing and communications director from one firm, for example, billed at a rate of $250 an hour, even for time spent waiting in an airport for flights between Arizona and New Mexico.” Once the transition gravy train ended and Arizona companies had to depend on Medicaid reimbursements, the firms began laying off workers.

So many questions indeed. Legislators, incensed at the lack of answers and trying to deal with complaints from constituents, believe they can use the subpoena power of the Legislative Finance Council to require officials in Gov. Susana Martinez’s Human Services Department to turn over documents, sit for interviews and clear up the questions. Because there are still criminal allegations in play, the questions about fraud must remain in Attorney General King’s office (we wish he would combine thoroughness with speed to get answers sooner than later).

However, legislators have a responsibility to taxpayers to find out why billing from the Arizona companies seems so outrageous ($6,474.98 for a month of cellphone service, for example). What did taxpayers receive for $24 million?

What has happened to care in the state? Why were machinations to switch contracts to Arizona in the works so far in advance of the so-called fraud?

Beyond hearings, the Legislature, the governor and mental health care providers need to look past this crisis and find ways to improve services to the mentally ill. Is having one big contractor managing services the best way to go, or are we spending precious dollars on bureaucracy that could be spent elsewhere? Are people receiving the care they need and to which they are entitled? Legislators should use everything in their power to obtain answers.

Taxpayers deserve no less.

COMMENTARY: TAMARA ESSAYYAD

Teen’s beating common in Mideast WASHINGTON he scene opens with two masked men kneeling over what looks like a rice sack, one man holding it down, the other man repeatedly raising his right fist and pounding it. The fisted man stands up, giving us a clearer view, and begins stomping on the figure. Then it moves, and we see a head and small body writhe in pain: The rice sack is a person. Long after the figure goes limp, the men continue the assault.

The unmoving rice sack was my cousin, 15-year-old Palestinian-American Tarek Abu Khdeir from Tampa, Fla. The two masked men are Israeli police officers.

Videos and pictures of Tarek hit international mainstream and social media within hours — perhaps because he is tied to the brutal revenge kidnapping and murder of his cousin, 16-year-old Mohammad Abu Khdeir, or perhaps because he is an American. Tarek’s family, who live in communities across the United States and in Jerusalem, was lucky: Calls from journalists (about what high school he goes to and what his hobbies are) helped get him released from an Israeli jail and sent to a hospital.

The problem is that Tarek is not alone.

Recent violent attacks on two teenage boys, and an entire Jerusalem village, are not outliers. This is how Israeli security forces work, both inside and outside the Palestinian Territory.

State-sanctioned Israeli brutality toward local Palestinian populations is a regular occurrence in Israel and the West Bank. As a result of the disappearance of three Israeli teens hitchhiking in the West Bank (they were later murdered), Israel’s response was to kill six Palestinians,

T

arrest some 700, invade 1,600 homes, schools and businesses and bomb more than 30 sites.

Though the Israeli authorities, with security coordination from the Palestinian Authority, had rampaged through the West Bank in search of suspects, rhetoric still oozed from Israeli government statements and calls for revenge flooded social media. These calls for unencumbered violence sent a clear message to settlers and other Israelis who called for “Death to the Arabs” that lynch mobs targeting Palestinians were and are acceptable. Message received: One group kidnapped a teenage Palestinian boy, beat him to within an inch of death and then set his body on fire.

If you drive through Palestinian neighborhoods of occupied Jerusalem today, Arabic graffiti cover the walls warning against Israeli attacks: “Beware of child kidnappers.” “Hide your children.” From family reports, many of the individuals sent to the hospital or arrested as a result of funeral processions for Mohammad were under age 18. And now there’s the video of Tarek’s 15-year-old limp body being dragged away by grown men, hiding their faces behind a mask for (one can only hope) shame of being identified.

Is one child’s life more valuable in the eyes of humanity than another’s? According to the statistics and the silence of the international community (including and especially the United States), the ongoing and systematic attacks, night raids and arbitrary arrest of Palestinian children indicate the answer is yes.

Defense for Children InternationalPalestine, a children’s rights organization that documents and reports human rights violations against children worldwide,

has documented the killing of over 1,400 Palestinian children by Israeli soldiers and settlers since 2000. This translates to the killing of one Palestinian child at the hands of Israelis every three days for the past 13 years. In addition, there are 214 children in Israeli detention, 32 of whom are between 12 and 15.

Human rights groups estimate that in the past five years, some 2,500 Palestinian children have been detained by Israel, some as young as 5 years old.

Imagine sending your son or daughter to the corner store, only to have him or her hunted by violent fundamentalists systematically attacking a local ethnic population. This is Trayvon Martin, en masse.

Israeli children are not subject to night raids by masked men with automatic weapons, nor are they required to always carry documents attesting to their identity and residency. There is no such thing as separate but equal schools, neighborhoods or roads — they are inherently separate and unequal. The Palestinian child’s reality is a gruesome one punctuated by constant control by arbitrary Israeli directives and the whims of teenage soldiers just out of high school themselves.

Palestinian children are simply that — children — and are the only children in the world required to ensure the security of their occupier. The U.S. government, the provider of more than $3 billion in military aid to Israel every year, should be more assertive in standing up for the rights of these children.

Harding showed he was aware that trust doesn’t mix with politics. As early as 1913, he told Phillips to get rid of the letters.

“Have a fire, chuck ‘em!” he writes. “They are too inflammable to keep.”

She didn’t listen. A lawyer found them stashed in a closet in her house shortly before she died in 1960, and the family in turn donated them to the library a few years later.

John Dean, former White House counsel to Richard Nixon, claimed in a 2005 book that had Harding lived longer — he died of a heart attack in 1923, during the middle of his first term — we would appreciate him more: He slashed federal spending, sharply cut income taxes, and ended the stagflation ignited by President Woodrow Wilson’s policies. Unemployment was reduced to 3 percent from 12 percent. Many presidents would take that record.

Even if historians were to reevaluate Harding, one mistake, especially of the adulterous sort, can overshadow everything else, as we will learn again when Bill Clinton’s obituary recalls, very high up, his affair with Monica Lewinsky.

No modern U.S. politician is likely to be as unguarded as Harding was in those letters. And that’s a shame. These relics of a bygone era give another dimension to the man, an opportunity lost to more recent leaders who could use another dimension or two.

Prick anyone, these letters tell us, and you’ll find a beating heart. Sadly in the age of Twitter, Instagram and congressional investigations, we won’t be reading about it 50 years hence.

The cure for New Mexico’s children

A

s a physician, I know that when you have a cure for an ailment, you use it. You don’t waste time, because you know that delay only makes the condition worse. New Mexico has a problem. We’re at the bottom of nearly every indicator of child well-being. We know what works and we’re actually giving the right medicine to a few lucky kids. But most are not getting the cure, even though we know it works and we have the resources to get it to them.

Kids need more than health care. They need a comprehensive set of services that promote healthy development. High-quality early care and education is the prescription. Services like home visiting reduce the incidence of child abuse, increase the time between subsequent births, and improve parental involvement in their children’s educations. High-quality care and preschool programs like New Mexico PreK improve children’s readiness for school, which means they are less likely to start out behind.

When kids start school on the right track, their outcomes are vastly improved, not just in K-12 but beyond.

Only a fraction of our children are getting the preventive medicine of home visiting and high-quality child care, and preschool/pre-K. And because we don’t offer enough prevention, the state spends much more money down the line fixing problems when they become a full-blown illness: child abuse and neglect, low graduation rates, high teen pregnancy rates, drug use and alcohol abuse. The list of social ills — all of which can be prevented — goes on.

While our elected leaders say they understand the problem and know about the cure, they aren’t giving it in the sufficient dosage. They add a few million dollars a year to these program budgets as if that is adequate treatment for such a widespread epidemic. While they cautiously phase in funding, and a few more children get the treatment they need each year, the vast majority of our children are left behind.

These children are denied the opportunities that will lead them to success.

Childhood cannot be put on hold. The development that occurs within the first five years of life will set that child on a course — it will determine whether that child will have the cognitive, social, emotional and behavioral skills they need to reach their full potential, or if they will struggle and fall behind. Early childhood presents a finite window of opportunity. While we’re slowly phasing in funding, our children are growing up and starting school unprepared and already behind. This means we’re allowing another generation of children to grow up lacking the education and skills they will need for 21st-century jobs. This means we’re telling some children they can’t have the cure available to other kids.

As a physician, I take an oath to provide the care to patients who need it. Our elected leaders also take an oath to serve the citizens of this state. It’s time for them to step up and do what is right for our most vulnerable citizens — our youngest children. I realize the budget is tight, but we could find the money if we had the political will. We could roll back tax cuts for the state’s highest income earners, or we could use a small portion of the income from the state’s multibillion-dollar permanent fund.

But when we fail to make the investments that will keep our children and our state healthy, we end up paying the price.

And the price is always higher — and the treatment less effective — when we’ve let the illness go unchecked for too long.

State beer tax hard for brewers to swallow A

ccording to the Beer Institute, taxes are the single most expensive ingredient in a glass of beer, costing more than labor and raw materials combined.

Annually, The Tax Foundation ranks beer excise tax rates by state. Tax treatment of beer varies widely across America, ranging from a low of 2 cents per gallon in Wyoming to a high of $1.17 per gallon in Tennessee.

So where does New Mexico rank?

At 41 cents per gallon, the state of New Mexico has the 14th-highest state beer excise tax in America.

Here’s why our high ranking should be of concern to every New Mexican.

Recently, the owner of the fastestgrowing craft brewing company in New Mexico told me that he has plans to move future production expansion to the tax-friendlier border states of Colorado and Arizona. Arizona ranks 35th-highest, at 16 cents per gallon. And Colorado ranks 46th-highest, at 8 cents per gallon.

Gee, I wonder if Golden, Colo., beer giant Coors had any influence on state legislators to enact a lower excise tax?

Further, is it any wonder that the state of Missouri, home of Budweiser, ranks 49th, at 6 cents per gallon?

We don’t have any mega-breweries located in New Mexico with highly paid lobbyists to leverage the beer excise tax down politically, but we do have an incredibly fast-growing, nationally recognized craft-brew scene that is creating good tax revenue and good jobs in New Mexico.

According to the Brewers Association, the New Mexico craft beer industry’s direct and total economic contribution (brewing, distributing and retail) in New Mexico exceeds 10,000 jobs, having a $265 million economic impact on the state.

More importantly, these craft brewing jobs are not McJobs. They are skilled manufacturing jobs. Workers learn how to fix and operate sophisticated brewing equipment that produce

not just services but physical products for on-premise consumption — or in cans and bottles for retail distribution.

Making beer is a real craft. Working at McDonald’s isn’t.

Many of the more than 30 craft breweries in New Mexico that I talk to say they are growing between 20 and 30 percent every year. The craft-brew business in America is booming. In the beer business, growth means investing your profits back into capital equipment to increase production capacity, and that is very expensive. The bottom line is that the high beer excise tax in New Mexico siphons off cash flow that could be used for capital equipment investment — hot water tanks, boil kettles, fermenters — which discourages beer production in New Mexico.

In New Mexico, the beer excise tax is a progressive tax based on production levels. The more beer you make, the higher excise tax rate you pay. For example, a New Mexican brewery is taxed 8 cents per gallon up to 10,000

barrels of output. Between 10,000 and 15,000 barrels, the tax rate rises to 28 cents per gallon. More than 15,000 barrels, the tax rate rises further to 43 cents per gallon. This makes no economic sense at all. This taxation scheme is an out-and-out lien on production, on profits, on capital investment, on job creation. At the very least, the beer excise tax ought to be a flatrate tax.

I, for one, do not wish to see our great entrepreneurial New Mexican craft breweries take their business and jobs to Arizona or Colorado solely for tax reasons. I hope New Mexican lawmakers feel the same way I do and introduce legislation soon to lower the beer excise tax rate in New Mexico and keep the craft-beer jobs in New Mexico.

Next generation can find way to peace in Israel T he recent murders of Israeli and Palestinian teens are a tragic manifestation of the rage and prejudice that have simmered between these people for decades.

History is rife with examples of how it is easier to hate than to listen and more gratifying to react than reflect. Sadly, our world defines strength as aggression and domination, while qualities such as openheartedness, compassion and flexibility are attributed to the “weak.” And so the killing goes on and on, fueled by age-old grudges, religious zealotry, portrayals of the other as monsters and segregated societies that make impossible the development of genuine friendship and understanding. Detesting a caricature of a person is effortless; loathing a beloved friend is not.

For the past eight years, as director of Creativity for Peace, I have not only witnessed the transformation of hatred but also scores of instances of realworld peacemaking. Working with young women from this troubled part of the world has proven to me that the opportunity to express pain in front of the other side and the freedom to scratch below the surface to learn something of the other’s heart can and will produce miracles.

When they begin with our organization, Israelis are certain that all Palestinians are terrorists whose greatest wish is to kill them. Palestinians believe that all Israelis are soldiers whose main goal is to make their lives miserable.

These perceptions are based in truth, but like all stereotypes, they crumble in the face of firsthand experience of the common bonds they share in language, culture, humor and dreams of a future of peace.

Seem simplistic? Actually, it’s quite profound. Our Palestinian participants admit that before they had a place to express their pain, they considered becoming suicide bombers. Israelis’ thoughts about the military take major turns. Both

sides are shocked by what they learn of the others’ lives.

The complexity of the situation into which Israelis and Palestinians are born presents them with excruciating contradictions. The elders of their society provide no good role models for how to live with this information. That these young women are willing to face these dichotomies headon is, to me, a mark of great strength and courage.

Liat, a 23-year-old Israeli, recently wrote to me, “I love my kibbutz, my people and my country, but I hate being part of the Middle East. There are too many obsessed people calling killing ‘justice’ and choosing religion or nationality over humanity. The people I miss the most in these times are my Palestinian friends. They are my only proof that we can learn to love each other and that peace is possible.”

Mandy, a 20-year-old Palestinian, shared her dismay hearing 8-year-olds chanting death slogans toward Israelis.

“This is what they were taught to say,” she told me. “Even before they know their story they wish them death. I once was like them. When I think about this I feel sad and angry.

I feel regret. I’m glad that I’ve had the chance to fix this. I’m glad that I can call myself a peacemaker.”

We can hope for peace between Israel and Palestine, but it is unlikely to come from the current leaders, so entrenched are they in the hurts and baggage of their history. The wisdom and reason, the forgiveness and the passion to create a safer and more just future for all, are with the next generation. These are the ones in whom I place my trust.

Dottie Indyke is the executive director of Creativity for Peace, which trains young Palestinian and Israeli women to be leaders and peacemakers. Sixteen girls, ages 15 to 17, will begin their work for peace this summer in Santa Fe.

“I worry about people who have taken this remarkable step in their life that has to be borne out of desperation, to come to the United States, and then they learn that they’re going back to the place that they left, they might not have the motivation to stick around,” Fouratt told me.

Some say that the U.S. should take in this wave of immigrants, but it begs the question, how many more can the country absorb? And, despite the desperate circumstances that inspired many of them, don’t laws need to be respected?

Even House Democratic Minority Whip Steny Hoyer said this week, “The United States cannot be expected to give sanctuary to every child in the world that is exposed to danger in their country because of the failure of the country’s government, or the local municipality’s government, to assist in keeping their own children safe.”

But to do that, it takes border enforcement first and foremost.

Without it, expect more $3.7 billion payments to come.

“When a parent or relative in those countries just paid … up to $7,000 to smugglers to take that child into the country,” said Republican Sen. Jeff Flake, who supported the Senate immigration bill that stalled in the House, “when they see those planeloads of kids coming back, then it will stop.”

It’s a hard truth, but he’s right.

Speak up on watershed before July 24

T

he U.S. Forest Service’s plan, the Santa Fe Municipal Watershed/Pecos Wilderness Prescribed Burn Project, is to burn 2,900 acres in the watershed in the wilderness.

To do that, workers will use about 180 pounds of potassium permanganate, a neurotoxin, for ignition. Sounds like a small amount in such a large area, especially after it is burned, and the residue is dispersed in our air, land and water. Yet researchers say the cumulative effect of these chemicals is implicated in many diseases.

They say hand ignition, which is less toxic, is too dangerous on steep slopes. But Forest Service researchers say not to denude steep slopes because it will cause devastating, irreversible erosion. One-fourth of global warming is due to deforestation.

Global warming causes drought, which causes wildfires. So the

Forest Service wants to burn 2,900 acres to prevent wildfires, which will cause more wildfires.

Sections 6701(b)5 and (c)3 of the Global Climate Change Prevention Act of 1990 says projects must mitigate, not exacerbate global warming.

Burning one acre of coniferous woods releases 4.81 tons of carbon, so the total released by this burn will be about 14,000 tons of CO2 and all the mercury, methane, DDT, DDE, and radionuclides that these trees are storing.

Also, the plan will not save the big old trees. The aerial ignition means the birds and animals cannot get away and most will be killed.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican; July 13, 1914: Hope, N.M. — William Lenox and Elza White, two Roswell cadets who are spending their vacation engaged in the pleasant pastime of digging postholes on the White Ranch, are having some troubles learning to be faunal naturalists and both were visitors to local physicians this week seeding treatment for rattlesnake and blood poisoning. Lenox was trying to extract the poisonous fangs of a newly captured rattlesnake with a pair of pliers and after pulling one tooth, the snake took advantage of him and stuck his remaining fang in his left forefinger. He doctored himself for three days but his hand began to swell, so he came to get treatment.

July 13, 1964: The Tierra Amarilla Land Grant Corp. is tossing all non-heirs, including the State of New Mexico, out on their ears.

Eviction notices were served Gov. Jack M. Campbell, D-N.M., and John Love, R-Colo., as well as the State Dept. of Game and Fish, the State Highway Dept. and 30 landowners in Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado.

Cited was the ratification by the U.S. of the Guadalupe-Hidalgo Treaty of 1848 and Article VI of the U.S. Constitution as authority for the action. The notice said the Tierra Amarilla Land Grant was given to Manuel Martinez and his eight sons. By international treaty between the United States and New Mexico, it said, no part of portion can be conveyed to anyone except an heir of Martinez or his sons.

July 13, 1989: In a surprise move, the City Council Wednesday all but killed a proposal prohibiting the sale of assault rifles and adopted a non-binding resolution asking state and federal governments to pass such a ban.

The council voted 4-3 to indefinitely postpone the proposed ordinance banning military-type weapons, which was sponsored by Councilor Peter Goodwin. The key vote for postponement was provided by councilor John Egan who as recently as Tuesday said he favored Goodwin’s ban. In addition to Egan, Councilors Peso Chavez, Carlos Gallegos and Phil Griego supported postponing the ordinance.

Councilors Debbie Jaramillo, Bernice Beenhouwer and Goodwin opposed the postponement.

n his head, he’s designing rockets.

Robert J. Salkeld has sold copies of The Santa Fe New Mexican at the corner of Alameda Street and Don Gaspar Avenue since Sept. 23, 1991.

He’s been creating single-stage shuttles, dual-fuel engines and reusable spacecraft much longer than that.

He holds seven patents and expects the U.S. Patent Office to award his eighth this fall.

“It’s a hobby,” he said during a recent interview.

Designing spacecraft used to be his living.

not far apart. And they had a more recent connection: Salkeld once had to prove that a portion of a patent was unique from something Aldrin had designed.

In May 1944, when Salkeld was 12, Life magazine published a series of astronomical paintings by artist Chesney Bonestell. “When I saw

his painting of Saturn as seen from Titan, I knew I would either be an astronomer, an astronaut or a rocket scientist,” Salkeld said. “A few weeks later, when the V-1 bombs started falling on London, I knew I wanted to be a rocket scientist or an astronaut.”

The 1-ton V-1 “buzz bomb” was a pilotless drone, based in part on

With a path in mind, Salkeld earned a bachelor’s degree in physics at Princeton and a master’s in business administration from Harvard.

He was an idea man and an artist.

“I was always good at drawing and painting. I had trouble with algebra and calculus,” he said. “I had to knuckle under and just do it.

In 1950, he saw Destination Moon, a film based on Robert Heinlein’s science-fiction book about putting a man on the moon. Salkeld began thinking about a single stage to orbit, a mixed-mode rocket that would lift off and hurtle into space with dualfuel engine, without jettisoning any parts along the way.

“I had ideas then — because I didn’t want to spew nuclear exhaust into the atmosphere — of lifting off using hydrogen and oxygen. The exhaust

People-watcher’s paradise at Art Market Early birds get the elbow room before midday crowd allowed to visit

By Phaedra Haywood The New Mexican

Hordes of people descended on Museum Hill on Saturday to attend the International Folk Art Market, disembarking from shuttle buses in a constant stream that began around 7:30 a.m.

For the first two cool hours, about 1,000 people who paid extra for early bird tickets were allowed to peruse the market with plenty of elbow room and access to some 150 folk artists from around the world who displayed their wares.

After that, the crowds came in earnest as about 9,000 more people — ticket sales were capped at 10,000 and sold out for Saturday — flowed through the gates to marvel at textiles, ceramics, metal work, paintings, papier-mache, embroidery, bead work, woodwork and more.

The event was a people-watcher’s paradise, with both artists and attendees decked out in their finest wearable folk art. Women carrying parasols embroidered with mirrors, wearing bespangled broomstick skirts, draped with strands of beads and semi-precious stones and carrying satchels made of mud cloth paused to take each others photos under a festive walkway festooned with faux marigold garlands.

As the crowds became thicker and the day became hotter, the sights and sounds of the market combined to create an atmosphere that was evocative of a bustling souk from a far off land.

Sunday SPOTLIGHT

Salkeld traces his love of space to his grandfather, comics, an artist and a war.

His father was a New York banker.

“He could have cared less about the stars,” Salkeld said.

It was his grandfather who introduced him to the stars. When he was 6, he would stand under the night sky with Henry F. Salkeld, a farmer with a third-grade education, and learn about the universe.

His grandfather had every copy of National Geographic since the magazine began publishing. “He was the intellect in the family. He was selfeducated,” Salkeld said.

Not long after he began watching the night sky with his grandfather, he began reading Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon comic strips in the Sunday paper.

“You know who else loved the comics?” Salkeld asked. “Buzz Aldrin.”

He would find out later that he and the Apollo astronaut had grown up

Attendees were pampered with free paper cones of cold water, stands full of umbrellas to keep the sun (and later the rain) off, and about a dozen food booths selling everything from gourmet doughnuts to goat stew. At midday, volunteers passed out sack lunches to artists. They wore placards around their necks with pictures of the sandwich choices — roast beef, chicken/turkey, cheese, hummus — to help bridge the language barrier.

“Hello, we can’t do anything about the crowds, but we’re glad you’re here,” chirped one of dozens of volunteers, some of whom seemed to be charged solely with greeting people.

In the stalls, artists from around the world posed for pictures and demonstrated their crafts. For some it was their first market, others, who have been coming to the market for years, reconnected with friends and customers.

In stall No. 18, Amalia Gue of Guatamela displayed a picture of her son next to her handwoven gauze cloth, created on backstrap looms that date back to pre-Columbian times. The boy — Fe’ Francis — was born in Santa Fe during last year’s market. His mother named him after the city, but he didn’t get to come this year.

“I didn’t let her bring him, otherwise he would have been miserable and she wouldn’t have been able to work,” said Olga Reiche, who works Gue’s coooperative.

Reiche said the market has revived the gauze-weaving art which was dying out in Gue’s village because locals there couldn’t afford the delicate hand-embroidered garments and began buying clothing made from machine-made lace instead.

$2.25M settles pumice lawsuit Company must give up Jemez mining claims

By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

A company owned by Española businessman Richard Cook and his family has paid the federal government $2.25 million to settle a lawsuit over illegal pumice mining in the Jemez Mountains, according to U.S. Department of Justice officials.

Under the settlement, the company, Copar, must also relinquish all its mining claims within the Jemez National Recreation Area of the Santa Fe National Forest and bars the company from bidding on or buying minerals from the U.S. Forest Service, according to a statement released Thursday from the U.S. Department of Justice.

The Department of Justice filed the lawsuit in 2009 on behalf of the Forest Service against Copar, Richard Cook and his three daughters, Shirley A. Cook, Debbie Cantrup and Kelly Armstrong, for trespass and violating their mining permit, according to court documents and the Department of Justice.

The Jemez Mountains have an abundance of pumice, a stone used for a variety of commercial uses from taking off foot callouses to giving jeans a worn look.

In 1988, the Cooks found and

N.M. ‘film tourism’ aims to lure movie lovers

By Steve Terrell The New Mexican

A big part of the mission of the New Mexico Film Office is to lure filmmakers to come to the state. But the agency, working with the state Tourism Department, also is trying to attract more tourists to come to the state to see where movies have been shot.

In an interview last week, Film Office Director Nick Maniatis said building “film tourism” is part of his agency’s strategy to strengthen the state’s film industry.

“Movies have been made here since 1898,” he said. All around the state there are locations that movie lovers can recognize, he said. “We want to tap into this.”

Maniatis said he’s worked with state Tourism Secretary Monique Jacobson on a number of downloadable maps on the Tourism Department’s website. These colorful maps of various regions in the state show various film locations.

Some entries on the north-central New Mexico map, for instance include: u Chama (“Ride the vintage Cumbres and Toltec Railroad through 10,020-foot Cumbres Pass! Just like they did in Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom”); u Los Alamos (“Ever wonder how

One of his dreams for film tourism, Maniatis said, would be to create apps for smartphones and tablets that would show scenes from movies when visitors go to the location where that scene was shot.

Maniatis said some Albuquerque businesses have taken advantage of the television series Breaking Bad, which was shot in Albuquerque and centered around Albuquerque characters.

One of these businesses is Routes Rentals & Tours, a bicycle shop in Old Town Albuquerque, which offers “Biking Bad Tours.”

Death notice ISABEL PACHECO Isabel Pacheco, age 97, passed away peacefully Thursday, July 10, 2014.

A lifelong resident of Santa Fe, Isabel was born Aug. 25, 1916, to Ramoncita Sena and Antonio Rael.

Isabel was preceded in death by her husband, Paul Pacheco; children: Paul Pacheco Jr.; Josie Rivera and her husband, Gus; Orlando Pacheco; Patrick “Bito” Pacheco; Theresa “Tessie” Montoya, Angie Rael; her sister Margie Vigil and her brothers, Isaac Rael, Ezekiel Rael and Joe Rael.

Isabel is survived by children, Eddie Pacheco and his wife, Josie; Frank “Pancho” Pacheco, and his wife, Joann; Albert Pacheco and his wife, Theresa; Leo Pacheco and his wife, Cynthia; a special daughter/ granddaughter, Annette Pacheco; sister; Consuelo Sandovall; 37 grandchildren, 49 great-grandchildren and 20 great-greatgrandchildren.

The Pachecos were well known in Santa Fe. Their business, Paul Pacheco’s Quality Meats, opened in 1959 and operated for more than 20 years. The family later opened Owl’s Liquor on Hickox Street, and ran the business also for more than 20 years. Paul Pacheco worked to raise money for his family, while Isabel raised the children and cooked delicious meals for them.

When Paul arrived home from a long day of work he would teach his sons his skills in boxing, which led Paul Pacheco Jr. to become a Golden Gloves Boxer. Grandchildren remember stories of how “noone ever wanted to get in a fight with a Pacheco.”

Isabel will be greatly missed by many loved ones. The family would like to thank Wellesley Home Care staff and owner Michelle for taking care of Isabel. Funeral arrangements are pending through French Funerals in Albuquerque.

A few booths down, Edmond Randrianarisoa of Madagascar — a fourth generation artisan — strummed on a valiha, a traditional instrument made of carved bamboo and gourd, which also sells for $200 but can be made in one day.

Elsewhere, marketers tried on gigantic animal-themed papiermache masks made in Haiti, and admired themselves draped in garments made from all manners of hand-dyed, woven, embroidered and felted fibers.

Steve Gerardo — who lives in Santa Fe when he’s not doing conflict resolution work in Africa or Asia — said he see’s the market as a great opportunity for the artists to come to the United States and make contacts, “and for Americans to see people from outside the country.”

Janice and George Simms from Alexandria, La., said they were attending the market for the first time after having seen a feature about it on PBS. The couple — who were cerebrating their 45th wedding anniversary — said they had just retired a week before, closing the restaurant they’d run for about two decades.

George Simms, 67, was still wearing his uniform, which had his name embroidered over his heart. Janice Simms, 65, purchased a basket from Uganda and a pair of earrings made in Laos.

“He said, ‘Ill recognize the building,’ ” Janice Simms said.

“Then we came and all the building look the same.”

Cathy Barnes, a weaver from Eugene, Ore., called the market a “wonderful place to see international textile artists without having to go to every continent.”

Her purchases for the day included a yard of handwoven velvet from Uzbekistan,

an indigo table runner from Burkina Faso, and a handwoven shawl from Peru.

“I won’t wear it,” she said. “I’ll hang it on the wall. It was $330, but I know the amount of labor that went into it. It would take me a year to make at my pace.”

Market spokesperson Clare Hertel said market artists sold $631,624 worth of goods between the hours of 6:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. during Friday’s opening party, where about 1,700 people paid $175 each to attend, up from about $610,000 raised at the event last year.

Hertel said she didn’t have

any numbers for Saturday yet, but said about $3 million worth of goods were sold over the weekend at last year’s market, and she was optimistic that his year could be even more lucrative. Hertel said 90 percent of sale proceeds go directly to artists, while 10 percent is used to defray costs associated with the market, which celebrated its 10th anniversary last year.

The market continues Sunday with admission reduced to $10.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — El Paso County Sheriff Terry Maketa, facing allegations that include sexual misconduct, will not face a recall election in November.

leased 23 mining claims in the Jemez Mountains, according to U.S. Court of Appeals documents.

Five years later, while the Cooks were in the process having their mining claims patented, Congress passed a law creating the Jemez National Recreation Area.

The law prevented mining patents from being issued within the recreation area.

The Forest Service decided only four claims, known as El Cajete Mine, were valid. In 1997, the feds issued Copar a 19-year permit to mine threefourths-of-an-inch size pumice for use only in the stonewash industry.

The stone-wash industry uses pumice as an abrasive substance to give blue jeans a worn, broken-in look.

The Cooks appealed the decision that some of their claims were invalid and won a partial judgment against the federal government in federal claims court.

The federal government agreed to pay the Cooks $4 million and in exchange the Cooks agreed not to sell any of the larger pumice stones found at the Cajete mine.

By 2002, the Forest Service was accusing Copar of taking some of the pumice, crushing it and selling it for other commercial uses in violation the agreement, according to a verification process. Recall organizers had until Saturday to turn in at least 44,387 signatures. Maketa, who is termlimited and will leave office in January, has been accused of having affairs with three female subordinates. The sheriff has apologized.

Activists protest police killing SANTA ROSA, Calif.— Activists in Northern California on Saturday protested a decision to not file criminal charges against

history of the case in the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals. By then, the bottom had dropped out of the stone-wash market.

The Forest Service told the company it was violating its mining authorization and ordered it to prove the pumice it had mined was sold only for stone washing.

Copar appealed the decision twice, and it was denied or dismissed in federal district and the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals.

The Forest Service accused Copar and the Cook family of unauthorized mining, crushing and selling of pumice and ordered them to stop mining.

According to court documents, Copar refused and in 2009, the Department of Justice filed suit.

The lawsuit and several related claims were settled in May and Copar paid the federal government $2.25 million in June, according to the Department of Justice statement.

On Wednesday, attorneys for Copar, the Cook family and the federal government filed motions to dismiss the case, according to the Department of Justice.

A message left for Cook was not returned.

On Monday, Ravitch announced her office cleared Deputy Erick Gelhaus of any criminal responsibility for shooting Lopez on Oct. 22 as he walked near his home.

Staff and wire reports

Poor shrimping season predicted BROWNSVILLE, Texas — A report is forecasting a belowaverage shrimp season in Texas, which could lead to higher prices.

The National Marine Fisheries Service forecasts a 53.2 million-pound catch for the Texas and western Louisiana portion of the Gulf of Mexico for this season, about 2.8 million short of the historical 1960-2012 average.

The Brownsville Herald says shrimping season opens Tuesday, after a yearly two month ban imposed by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department for conservation purposes to ensure more and larger shrimp are caught. Generally shrimpers favor higher prices but past a certain point, there is less demand for expensive shrimp.

Pair told to stop blocking trail VENTURA, Calif.— State coastal regulators have voted unanimously to issue a ceaseand-desist order to a couple who installed fences, gates and signs that blocked access to a popular hiking trail on the Central Coast.

The California Coastal Commission ordered Robert and Judith McCarthy to remove the barriers at its meeting on Friday, and called their actions “outrageous” and “a flagrant violation of the law.”

The San Luis Obispo Tribune reports the couple installed fences and gates at their 37-acre property above Avila Beach last year.

They said they were concerned about hikers’ safety on a steep section of the trail and offered to build two alternative trails for public access.

Rocket: Space companies like his early ideas Montana tops federal

corruption prosecutions

Continued from Page C-1 would just be water coming out.”

He wasn’t the only one who believed a single-stage shuttle was doable and better than the two-stage launch design. Others were working on the same notion.

He published his first paper in 1966 in the Journal of Spacecraft, an analysis of the economic benefits of mining propellants from the moon, three years before man landed there.

It took more than a decade for Salkeld to work out the math behind the single-stage shuttle design. In 1971, he published “Mixed-Mode Propulsion for the Space Shuttle” in the journal Astronautics & Aeronautics.

By then, the U.S. shuttle program was underway. “I published my paper five months before Nixon signed off on the [two-stage] shuttle design. It was just too late,” he said.

Salkeld believes if the shuttle had been a single-stage design, neither the 1986 Challenger nor the 2003 Columbia disasters that shocked the world would have occurred.

“The Challenger was the fault of an external strap-on booster,” he said. “And the Columbia was the fault of the external tank insulation coating. If it had been single stage, there wouldn’t have been any external boosters and there wouldn’t have been any tank.”

Gen. Bernard A. Schriever sent Salkeld to brief engineer Von Braun about his ideas for a single-stage rocket and a dualfuel engine. Von Braun was intrigued, Salkeld said, but not about to shift gears on the shuttle design so late in the game.

But the ideas caught the attention of another engineer, Rudi Beichel, and the two became friends and colleagues.

In 1973, they co-authored a paper detailing the ideas in Astronautics & Aeronautics.

In 1975, Salkeld obtained the master patent for the dual-fuel rocket engine.

Now, decades later, private companies are vying to perfect reusable, single-stage-to-orbit spacecraft. But no one, as far as Salkeld knows, has yet built and launched a dual-fuel rocket.

Skylab and the space shuttle.

But in the 1980s, things begin to fall apart for both Salkeld and America’s space program. In the mid-1980s, System Development was folded into Unisys Defense Systems. Mueller retired, and everybody associated with him was let go, Salkeld said.

He consulted with Beichel at Aerojet for awhile, but then Beichel retired. The work went away.

“The Soviet Union was on the verge of collapse, and so the whole aerospace industry got turned upside down,” Salkeld said. “The first people to go are consultants when companies tighten their belt.”

“Bob was recognized everywhere; he had many friends in high places,” Beichel told the Santa Fe Reporter in 1994. “But NASA is one big organization and if it doesn’t like your idea, you’re out of work. The whole space industry is in collapse and respected aerospace engineers like Bob are on the street.”

Beichel died in 1999.

For Salkeld, the dominoes kept falling. Within a couple of years, “my father passed away.

My wife wanted a divorce. My mother got sick, and we moved her to a nursing home in Albuquerque.”

Divorce wiped out a lot of Salkeld’s money. He moved to Albuquerque to be close to his mom and lived for awhile off his father’s estate money. By then he was 60, a man with a lot of Rise, fall of work experience in spacecraft systems but no doctorate.

In the 1990s, Salkeld told the National Enquirer, “places like NASA have become regimented. They want people who will toe the line, not rock the boat with new ideas.”

Salkeld’s latest patent, approved and published in 2013, is for a direct-flight far space shuttle that could be launched from suborbital altitudes into space and land horizontally.

The one he expects to have approved soon is a reusable global launcher — an unmanned, suborbital space shuttle.

Salkeld lives in an efficiency apartment that is just big enough for his bed and a table stacked with papers and his drawing materials. He has no filing cabinet. “My filing cabinet is up here,” he said, tapping his head.

He still designs by hand and

uses only a calculator for the math.

“I’m computer illiterate. I’m not on the Internet. I’ve never had a PC,” he said. “If you know what you are doing, you don’t need a computer.”

He’s outlived most of his family. He has a daughter in North Carolina, whom he talks to periodically, and a granddaughter he has never met.

His is a quiet life, and he seems content. As long as he can think and draw and stand all kinds of weather, he says he’ll continue selling newspapers and designing rockets.

“I like the independence of selling newspapers,” he said, waiving his hands at the patents, drawings and technical papers spread on his table. “I have enough spare time to work on these things.”

Bill seeks to allow states California legislation would to manage wild horses regulate insurance for pets Feds run program, but disputes arise from overpopulation

By Martin Griffith The Associated Press

RENO, Nev. — A Utah congressman has introduced legislation to allow Western states and American Indian tribes to take over management of wild horses and burros from the federal government.

Rep. Chris Stewart said the U.S. Bureau of Land Management has mismanaged the animals on public rangelands and states should have the option of managing them.

An overpopulation of horses is pushing cattle off the range, the Republican lawmaker said, and leading to the destruction of habitat for native species.

“States and tribes already successfully manage large quantities of wildlife within their borders,” Stewart said in a statement. “If horses and burros were under that same jurisdiction, I’m confident that new ideas and opportunities would

be developed to manage the herds more successfully than the federal government.”

But Anne Novak, executive director of California-based Protect Mustangs, said her group opposes the legislation because it would lead to states and tribes killing the animals or selling them off for slaughter for human consumption.

The government is rounding up too many mustangs while allowing livestock to feed at taxpayer expense on the same rangeland scientists say is being overgrazed, she said.

“We’ve had firsthand experience with states and tribes managing wild horses, and it’s horribly cruel,” Novak said in a statement. “They ruthlessly remove wild horses and sell them to kill-buyers at auction.

Severe animal abuse would be the result of the [legislation].”

The Bureau of Land Management says it’s doing all it can, given budget constraints, overflowing holding pens and a distaste for the politically unpopular options of either ending the costly roundups or slaughtering excess horses.

The bill’s introduction comes

at a time when the bureau has been under increasing pressure from ranchers to remove horses that they say threaten livestock and wildlife on rangelands already damaged by drought.

In Utah, Iron County commissioners had threatened to gather up hundreds of mustangs themselves, saying the government refuses to remove enough horses in herds that double in size every five years.

Iron County Commissioner Dave Miller said he and commissioners from other counties are trying to drum up support for a resolution in support of the bill at the National Association of Counties.

“The resolution will be instrumental in getting Chris Stewart’s bill through Congress because it shows support across the nation,” he told The Spectrum of St. George, Utah.

Stewart said his Wild Horse Oversight Act would extend all protections that horses and burros enjoy under the federal Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act of 1971 while giving states the opportunity of implementing their own management plans.

Is Time Travel Possible?

The Associated Press

SACRAMENTO — California could soon start regulating the small but growing market for pet insurance under proposed legislation.

A bill by Assemblyman Matt Dababneh, D-Los Angeles, would set guidelines for the largely unregulated pet insurance industry, according to the Sacramento Bee. Former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed similar legislation, but the latest measure was approved 78-0 by the state Assembly and now awaits approval by the state Senate.

If the proposed legislation is signed by Gov. Jerry Brown, California would be the first state to impose basic requirements for pet insurance, said Patrick Storm, a spokesman for Insurance Commissioner

Dave Jones, who supports the legislation. “Pet insurance is still the Wild West, and that’s what we’re trying to rein in,” Storm said.

The legislation was prompted by complaints to the state Department of Insurance about pet insurance policies that consumers say are confusing or misleading. “Consumers weren’t confident in the product they were buying,” Dababneh said. “There’s obviously a big new opportunity for us here in California to once again lead the way.”

The legislation would make policies more transparent and give insurance regulators a greater ability to oversee the plans. Policyholders would get a 30-day trial period during which they would have the option to return their coverage.

The pet insurance industry

has largely remained neutral on the bill, but Veterinary Pet Insurance, the largest U.S. provider, has endorsed the measure.

“Because there are now so many companies in the market, we felt it was important that everyone was playing by the same rules,” company spokesman Curtis Steinhoff said.

Only about 1 percent of American pet owners hold policies, but they’re becoming increasingly popular as treatments get more expensive and more owners treat their pets like members of the family.

Stuart Waldman decided to buy pet insurance after treatment for his previous dog cost him $17,000. But he hasn’t been impressed and wishes consumers could have better access to policy information, Waldman said.

Testing the ‘Grandfather Paradox’ Wednesday, July 16 7:30 p.m.

James A. Little Theater 1060 Cerrillos Rd., Santa Fe Lectures are free and open to the public. Seating is limited.

Time travel is a science fiction staple, inspiring the plots of countless books, movies, and Star Trek episodes. But while basic physics allows for the possibility of moving through time, practical concerns like the “Grandfather Paradox,” in which a traveler jumps back in time, kills his grandfather, and therefore prevents his own existence, seem to stand in the way. Self-described “quantum mechanic” Seth Lloyd looks at an alternate mode of time travel that eliminates any events that could later prove paradoxical, making this phenomenon both theoretically possible and creatively irresistible, whether you’re an astrophysicist or just a daydreamer.

Can you handle it if his head-banging gets temporarily worse? If the answer to that question is no, then you are a completely normal mother. In that case, go to a discount store and buy a colorful throw rug. One printed with Looney Tunes characters would be highly appropriate. Place it on top of an already carpeted area and tell your son that it’s his new, very special head-banging place.

From that point on, whenever he begins to bang his head during a childhood bipolar episode, pick him up, take him to his new and very special head-banging rug, put him gently down and say, “You can bang your head here.” Then walk away.

Do this as often as necessary, which may be fairly often for a few days. If you’re calm and consistent, and if my experience serves me well, his head banging will soon be a thing of the past.

Next comes foot-stomping, which is far less worrisome.

By Raven Devanney KIDS FIRST! critic

It’s been years since the Decepticons and the Autobots battled for the fate of the humans in Chicago, and human defenses against alien forces are at an alltime high. A government branch of humans is targeting all Transformers, Autobots and Decepticons alike, with the help of a menacing assassin.

While all of this is going on, Cade Yeager, a struggling inventor from Texas, tries to make enough means to keep his property and put his daughter, Tessa, through college. While looking for parts to help his inventions, he stumbles upon a broken-down, rusted truck and decides to fix it up. To his surprise, the truck turns out to the mighty Optimus Prime.

Cade fixes him and decides to help him defeat the forces coming for Earth yet again, once he realizes what the government is doing to Transformers. Now, the fate of the entire human race lies in the hands of Optimus and this family of humans and, without them, we might just face extinction.

Transformers: Age of Extinction is an entertaining and visually very well-done film. Director Michael Bay uses the first IMAX Digital 3-D camera, making the images more immersive and stunning than anything that’s been seen on the big screen so far. It’s very intense to be sitting in the IMAX Theater seeing these 50-foot robots captured in such a realistic way.

If you’ve seen any of the previous films from this franchise, you know that they are nothing short of action-packed. The cinematography and CGI is able to show the intense battle scenes and large scale attacks in a breathtaking, edge-of-your-seat way.

One thing that I don’t like about the visuals is the inconsistency of the Transformers from film to film. The main characters look the same, but some of the Autobots that are introduced in this film are designed completely different than in any of the previous films. Their faces are constructed to have features that look extremely humanesque, and it is strange to see them next to Optimus and BumbleBee, who still have the classic Transformer look. Another inconsistency is that, in the last film, every time a Transformer was hit, it would spill a blood-like liquid, but in this film, if they are injured, the liquid that comes from the wounds is bright green.

It is very strange to see a Transformer film without Shia Labeouf, but I am quite impressed with Mark Wahlberg and the way he tackles this role. I’m also a fan of Nicola Peltz and think she is decent in this film. However, I am really sick of the way girls are portrayed in this franchise. Every single leading lady looks like a Victoria’s Secret model and is completely helpless. Near the end, they have one moment of courage, and that’s pretty much all. It’s a formula that is completely predictable in all of the Transformer films, but alas, it’s what sells.

Like I said before, this film is entertaining and it enjoyable. It kept me engaged, concerned for the characters, shocked and, I’ll admit, I did almost cry near the end.

However, this film is peppered with extremely cliché and honestly annoying lines and interactions. From the very beginning, Tessa is introduced as a stereotypical film version of a teenage girl. She rolls up with her friends screaming and giggling about how excited they are to party and be crazy. The whole interaction is cheesy and unnecessary and sets her up to look like a bimbo.

And they really drive the whole “American Way” and patriotism to the ground. Previous films were less centered on our nation and more about the human race as a whole.

Despite my qualms regarding this movie, it is entertaining. I give it 4 out of 5 stars and recommend this film for ages 13 to 18, due to the violence and language. However, if you have seen the previous films and are under 13, then this film should be suitable for you.

If you’re a fan of Transformers, action or just want to experience the first film to ever use the million-dollar IMAX Digital 3-D camera, be sure to check out Transformer: Age of Extinction in theaters now.

Faces & places Tom Betts, Bandelier National Monument’s chief ranger and a 32-year veteran of the National Park Service, has been named the 2013 recipient of the Harry Yount National Park Ranger Award. The honor, bestowed at a ceremony June 25 in Washington, D.C., is the Park Service’s highest award for excellence in the art and science of rangering.

The award is named for the first U.S. park ranger. Harry Yount (1839-1924) was hired to protect Yellowstone National Park and its wildlife in 1880.

Betts, who grew up in national parks as a ranger’s son, became chief ranger at Bandelier in 2009 after serving at other parks from Alaska to Wyoming to Arizona, according to a news release.

Betts spent his boyhood in some of America’s most spectacular parks — from Rocky Mountain in Colorado to Yosemite in California to Grand Teton in Wyoming.

He began his Park Service career in 1980 as a volunteer ski ranger at Crater Lake in Oregon. Betts has protected park visitors during volcano eruptions, wildland fires, earthquakes, floods, snowstorms, wildlife encounters and search-and-rescue missions, the news release says.

El mitote Santa Fe author George R.R. Martin gave the finger to all naysayers who complain that he’ll die before he finishes The Song of Ice and Fire saga, on which the hugely successful HBO series Game of Thrones is based.

Entertainment Weekly reported recently that Martin threw the bird during a question in an interview with Swiss newspaper Tages-Anzeiger.

In the same interview, Martin also says he is not about to change his writing habits for impatient fans. uuu

A-lister John Travolta was spotted at the Genoveva Chavez Community Center last week. It seems the 60-year-old star of Pulp Fiction and Saturday Night Fever hardly rests. He also has been spotted outside Anytime Fitness and has been seen multiple times at the Shellaberger Tennis Center.

Travolta is in town filming Ti West’s revenge Western, In a Valley of Violence. uuu

Buffalo Thunder Resort & Casino is hosting a celebrity charity golf tournament this weekend, but there’s been no official word on which celebrities will attend. Through a bit of Twitter digging, El Mitotero found at least two TV actors coming to town: Bruce Thomas and Paula Trickey.

Thomas is known for his roles in Legally Blonde and Kyle XY, and he’s made appearances in TV shows such as Bones, Desperate Housewives and CSI Miami.

And for you video game fans, he also voiced Master Chief in Halo 4.

Perhaps Trickey’s bestknown role is Officer Cory

McNamara from the TV show Pacific Blue, but she has also been in The O.C. The tournament started at noon Saturday. uuu

The New Mexico Film Office announced Monday that The Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco will be in Burning Bodhi, shot in New Mexico. Perhaps more impressive, University of New Mexico Kaley Cuoco professor Matthew McDuffie wrote the screenplay, and Albuquerque resident Marshall Bear is producing the movie.

According to IMDB, the film is about a young man returning to New Mexico to deal with the loss of his high school best friend. It appears that along the way, he’ll face “troublesome parents, his heartbroken first girlfriend and a ton of regrets.” The movie has a tentative release date of 2015.

The production, a news release stated, will employ at least 30 New Mexico crew members and three New Mexican actors. For more information, email burningbodhi@gmail.com or visit the New Mexico Film Office’s website.

Filming takes place through mid-July and August in the Albuquerque and Bernalillo County areas.

The movie also stars Cody Horn of Magic Mike and Virginia Madsen of Sideways.

Not all blood is red. Do the math to discover the color of each of these creature’s blood.

ometimes when people are sick or in an accident, they lose blood faster than their bodies can make it. Doctors get blood for these people from a blood bank. he blood bank is a place where blood that people have donated is saved until it is needed. Healthy adults can donate blood anytime.

Red blood cells carry oxygen to all parts of the body. A single drop of blood contains millions of red blood cells which constantly travel through your body delivering oxygen and removing waste. Blood is made up other kinds of cells, too.

lasma is a yellowish liquid that carries nutrients, hormones, and proteins throughout the body. Plasma is mostly water, absorbed from the intestines from what you drink and eat, with the liver supplying important proteins.

• White blood cells battle germs that invade the body.

• Platelets are cells that get sticky and thick when they come into contact with air. When you get a cut, the platelets get gooey and plug up the cut.

Death of last original Ramone signals end of era Punk rock band left mark on music world

By David Bauder The Associated Press

NEW YORK — The Ramones always seemed too fast. Their songs rushed by, often two minutes or less of pure adrenaline. Their influence outstripped their sales.

And now, with the death of drummer Tommy, all four original members of the seminal punk rock band are gone.

Tommy Ramone, born Erdelyi Tamas in Budapest, Hungary, died Friday at age 65, said Dave Frey, who works for Ramones Productions and Silent Partner Management.

Frey had no further details.

Johnny, Joey, Dee Dee and Tommy Ramone, taking their surname from an alias Paul McCartney used to check into hotels, formed in Queens, N.Y., in 1974.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members were among the leaders of the original punk

rock movement with songs like “I Wanna Be Sedated,” “Blitzkrieg Bop” and “Rockaway Beach.”

Tommy Wearing Ramone ripped jeans, black leather and bad haircuts, the Ramones stripped rock down to its essentials: two guitars, drums, a singer and no solos. Their 1976 debut album had 14 songs in less than 30 minutes, with “Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue” and “Beat on the Brat” reflecting their twisted teen years.

Their taste also reflected a love for early 1960s rock, before it became “progressive.”

The Ramones never had a Top 40 hit, although not for lack of trying.

They brought in the eccentric Phil Spector to produce an album. After seeing the Ramones in Asbury Park, N.J., Bruce Springsteen wrote

“Hungry Heart” for them — then kept it for himself when his manager smelled a hit.

“This is art,” Tommy wrote in the liner notes for a Ramones compilation. “Sometimes it doesn’t sell at first.

Sometimes it takes a while for the world to catch on.”

Their concerts were a bolt of energy, songs tumbling upon one another. “Hello, Schenectady!” Joey shouted upon taking the stage in Syracuse, N.Y., one night in the late 1970s, before Dee Dee let loose with the familiar, rapid-fire “1-2-3-4” call that signaled the music’s start.

Bands like Nirvana, Blink-182 and Green Day — who inducted the Ramones into the rock hall — came later and did sell, with sounds unimaginable without the Ramones’ influence.

Now, teenagers not yet born when the Ramones played their last gig in 1996, perhaps even unaware of their legacy, wear black T-shirts to the mall emblazoned with the band’s distinctive insignia.

to see it all. Singer Joey died first, of cancer, at age 49 in 2001. Bass player Dee Dee was killed by a drug overdose the next year at age 50, three months after the band’s rock hall induction. Guitarist Johnny, then 55, died of cancer in 2004.

Tommy was the band’s original manager and helped produce some of their earlier albums. He was a guitar player in a band with Johnny that predated the Ramones, but went behind the drums when they couldn’t find anyone else to keep up. He got out early, leaving the stage in 1978, although he produced the Ramones’ 1980s album Too Tough to Die. “If you’re cooped up in a van with the Ramones, it can eventually get to you,” he said in a later interview.

He stayed active as a producer, working with the Replacements, among other bands. He played mandolin, banjo and guitar for a bluegrass band in his later years.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Most tourists making a summer trip to Alaska will pass through Anchorage on their way to cruises, Denali National Park and other scenic adventures. While in Alaska’s biggest city, also home to the state’s largest airport, there are plenty of free things to do.

Here are a few.

Tony Knowles Coastal Trail This is the gem of the city’s extensive trail system, which boasts more than 120 miles of paved trails.

The coastal trail is accessible from many points in downtown Anchorage, and takes walkers or joggers about a mile and a half to the scenic Westchester Lagoon.

If you make it to the lagoon with energy to burn, the trail continues for another 9 miles to Kincaid Park. Moose sightings are more likely as you go

by Earthquake Park — which offers great views of downtown Anchorage draped under the Chugach Mountains — and Point Woronzof.

Ship Creek Walk a few blocks from the city’s hustle and bustle and you’ll find a salmon stream.

Ship Creek runs along the edge of downtown Anchorage, attracting anglers who often stand shoulder-to-shoulder in, or on, the creek bed hoping to hook a salmon. You can watch from the side of the creek but several pedestrian bridges offer the best viewing.

Alaska State Troopers museum Are you a fan of the Alaska State Troopers, either the actual officers or the TV show? If so, you’ll find this free museum arresting.

The official name is the Fraternal Order of Alaska State Troopers Law Enforcement Museum. It features the his-

tory of law enforcement in the state, going back to the days of the U.S. Marshal’s office.

Patches representing departments from all 50 states, along with international and federal agencies, hang from the ceiling, and there’s a copy of the wanted poster for Ed Krause, called Alaska’s first serial killer. He was a miner and Army deserter who preyed on unattached men during the Klondike gold rush.

There’s also a famous mug shot of actor Steve McQueen flashing a peace sign after his 1972 arrest for reckless driving in a Toronado in downtown Anchorage.

Public Lands Building In the heart of downtown is the Public Lands Building, a 1930s Modern white concrete structure that’s a clearinghouse of information for all state and federal land in Alaska (about 300 million acres) and what you can do on them, from mushing to hiking to camping. You can plan a trip here or view movies or natural history exhibits about Alaska, including an outdoor display of bear hides and moose antlers.

The center also offers two walking tours of Anchorage daily in summer..

Anchorage Market Billed as Alaska’s largest open-air market, it’s a must for tourists on Saturdays and Sundays. Located in a parking lot near the Hilton Hotel, the market offers music, food for purchase and Alaska vendors peddling their wares. The food court area features locally grown food (yes, there is agriculture in Alaska), and a big seller is salmon quesadillas.

Products range from all types of clothing with “Alaska” printed on it to photographs of the northern lights to locally made jewelry.

An open-air stage features local musicians.

make Loew a winner.

Loew’s achievements and the innovations he has brought into German football will always be recognized.

But unless he wins the title, his tenure will be regarded as a partial Joachim Loew success, even considering the astounding 7-1 win over Brazil in the semifinals.

Loew’s job is secure — his contract had been extended through the 2016 European Championship before the

World Cup. But if Germany fails to beat Argentina at the Maracana and falls short of the title in Loew’s fourth straight tournament in charge, he may not be able to shake off the reputation of a coach who can’t win titles.

“It’s always disappointing to lose a final, but this team has a future, and I am not worried,” Loew said Saturday.

Germany lost the 2008 European Championship final to Spain, which also beat Germany two years later in the World Cup semifinals.

James’ return to Cavs leaves East wide open

By Brian Mahoney The Associated Press

FIFAWorldCup

NEW YORK — A word of caution to anyone anointing the Cleveland Cavaliers as the NBA favorites.

Yes, the Cavaliers are going to be good, no doubt. It’s impossible not to be with the game’s best player. But even LeBron James knows Cleveland has a lot of work to do.

“We’re not ready right now. No way,” he wrote in his first-person essay in Sports Illustrated.

Quite a different tone than when he arrived in Miami four years ago.

Quite a different situation, too.

While the player dominos continue to fall in place during free agency, James’ decision has leveled the playing field even more in the up-for-grabs Eastern Conference.

And the battle should be very entertaining: James vs. the likes of Pat Riley, Phil Jackson and Larry Bird.

Cleveland won’t even be a sure thing within its own division where Bird’s Indiana Pacers and the Chicago Bulls have veteran squads that have played together for years.

And an NBA championship is surely no guarantee, not with the San Antonio Spurs possibly even stronger than the powerhouse that rolled through James and the Heat in the NBA Finals. The Oklahoma City Thunder and Los Angeles Clippers are potent, and the Houston Rockets and Portland Trail Blazers don’t look far away.

So if Cleveland’s a favorite, it may only be a sentimental one, for those wanting to see James

TODAY’S GAME 1 p.m. on ABC — Championship game: Germany vs. Argentina

harles Johnson doesn’t have a lot of time to make his dream come true, so he needs the kindness of strangers to help out.

The Santa Fe Fuego outfielder is playing in the Pecos League this year in the hopes of playing for a Major League Baseball affiliate, but the window of opportunity is starting to close for the 27-year-old.

“I’m in more of a difficult situation than these other guys because they’re all younger than me,” Johnson said.

“If I’m not somewhere within the next year, I might as well call it quits.”

To pursue his dream, Johnson left his wife, Danielle, and his 5-year-old son, Cai, back in Houston for the summer — a sacrifice the family was willing to make.

“I’m fortunate that my wife is very understanding of the situation,” Johnson said. “She knew I wanted to chase this for a while.”

While Johnson and the rest of the Fuego pursue their goals, they don’t get paid much to do so. All the players make about $50 a week, so they have to stay with a host who voluntarily opens his or her home during the season.

That’s where people like Anna Blea come in.

Biggest scorer in World Cup? Maybe Univision The World Cup has been a record-breaking event for Univision, which has dominated its TV rivals in several of America’s largest cities — Los Angeles, Miami and Houston. It even won the New York market for some games. With the finals still to come Sunday — featuring a Latin American team for the first time in 12 years — Univision has already drawn roughly 80 million viewers, or about 60 percent more than it logged for the 2010 tournament.

Cards beat Brewers; Segura out after son’s death The Associated Press

MILWAUKEE — Adam Wainwright pitched seven strong innings and the St. Cardinals 10 Louis CarBrewers 2 dinals sent Milwaukee to its seventh straight loss, 10-2 on Saturday as the Brewers mourned the death of shortstop Jean Segura’s young son.

Segura left the team and traveled home to the Dominican Republic, a day after his

9-month-old son died. The Brewers observed a moment of silence for Janniel Segura, and the clubhouse was closed before the game.

WHITE SOX 6, INDIANS 2 In Cleveland, Jose Abreu hit his major league-leading 29th homer, a two-run shot that sent the Chicago White Sox over the Cleveland Indians and ended a three-game losing streak.

YANKEES 3, ORIOLES 0 InBaltimore, rookie Shane Greene pitched four-hit ball into the eighth inning of his second

major league start, Derek Jeter had two hits and an RBI and the New York Yankees beat the Baltimore Orioles.

BRAVES 11, CUBS 6 In Chicago, Chris Johnson homered twice and pitcher Mike Minor hit his second career home run, leading the Atlanta Braves over the Chicago Cubs.

DIAMONDBACKS 2, GIANTS 0 In San Francisco, Aaron Hill homered, doubled and scored twice, Wade Miley pitched seven shutout innings and the

Arizona Diamondbacks beat the San Francisco Giants.

METS 5, MARLINS 4 In New York, Chris Young and rookie Eric Campbell delivered big hits off the bench in the late innings to rally the surging New York Mets past the Miami Marlins.

TWINS 9, ROCKIES 3 In Denver, Kevin Correia pitched six innings of one-run ball, Eduardo Escobar homered, and the Minnesota Twins pulled away late to beat the Colorado Rockies.

Homes: Families form bond with players Continued from Page D-1 Blea, 46, is the executive director for Phame Inc., a nonprofit performing arts center for people with disabilities. When she heard the Fuego players needed hosts, she was more than willing to let one occupy the extra bedroom in her house.

However, she may have gotten more than she bargained for. In addition to Johnson, she also hosted Troy King and Austin Cox before they were cut from the team, but she was happy to provide a home for them.

“I just wanted somebody to engage with,” Blea said. “With Charles, it’s been a great, great experience.”

Blea, who also lives and takes care of a 74-year-old woman with disabilities named Mary, said she was taking a big chance with her and Mary’s personal safety by housing strangers.

“I live with a vulnerable individual, so these people would have to come with integrity,” she said. “I’m making that gamble because I’m not just gambling with my life, but with her’s as well.”

The players may have been strangers at the beginning of the season, but Blea started to bond with them as time went on. She and Johnson try to spend as much time as they can together, and they even went to a few movies. When Cox was cut, Blea was a little distraught, and she took him out to dinner before he left.

“I really didn’t have a connection with Troy, but when Austin left, it was sad,” Blea said.

Now Blea is down to one player, but John and Desiree Burnett now have seven in their home.

This is the second year the Burnetts have been a host family, but this is the biggest amount of players they have opened their home to. They originally intended to only host a few players, but more needed shelter.

“We’ll take three or four, but that’s all,” said Desiree Burnett, 54, recalling when she originally agreed to be a host. “They keep coming, but that’s OK. We enjoy them.”

The Burnetts are no strangers to good will. From October to May, Desiree Burnett is a volunteer coordinator at the Interfaith Community Shelter, which serves people homeless people. John Burnett also volunteered at the shelter too, but three years ago, he became disabled.

“Nobody would volunteer to be a host, until these guys were stuck in a hotel over here,” John Burnett said. “That just takes every penny they’ve got, so we said we would take a couple more that were temporary. Well, we’re probably going to finish the season with seven.”

Outfielder David Brandt, a 23-year-old from New Hampshire, was one of the first players to move into the house. He said the Burnetts immediately told him he could help himself to anything, but he said it took him a while to take them up on that offer.

“They were like ‘Hey, anything you want is yours,’ ” Brandt said. “I was a little hesi-

Fuego edge Taos 5-4 The Santa Fe Fuego needed extra innings to reduce their magic number on Saturday night.

Santa Fe (36-20) got a bases-loaded single from Joey LaCunga in the bottom of the 11th inning to beat visiting Taos 5-4 at Fort Marcy Ballpark.

The Fuego lead the Northern Division of the Pecos League by four games over second-place Trinidad. The Triggers also won Saturday as Santa Fe’s magic number for clinching the division title was reduced to 9.

Any combination of Fuego wins and Trinidad losses equalling that number would wrap up the first division title in Santa Fe’s brief history in the Pecos League.

Taos forced extra innings when Steve Taft scored the tying run in the top of the ninth inning on a passed ball charged to Fuego catcher Erik Kozel.

Tyler Herr had taken the mound that inning, trying to close things out.

Santa Fe newcomer Francisco Rodriguez got the start. A childhood friend of Fuego middle infielder Omar Arsten, Rodriguez walked four and allowed two runs on a pair of hits in his 3⅔ innings.

In all, Santa Fe used five pitchers. The win went to another newcomer, Corey Deighan (1-0). He pitched one inning, giving up a hit in a scoreless 11th.

Taos had only four hits for the entire game but drew seven walks and benefited from a pair of Santa Fe errors.

Arsten paced the offense with two hits. Chevas Numata scored a pair of runs, including the game winner when he led off the 11th inning with a walk, worked his way to third on a fielder’s choice and a single before coming home on LaCunga’s hit.

tant at first, but after about the third week, it really did feel like home.”

It feels like home now for Brandt, but it’s a home with a lot of people in it. Brandt got bedroom privileges since he was one of the first players to show up, but players Corey Deighan and Omar Artsen sleep on beds in the living room. It may be a little crowded in the Burnett household, but everyone is already used to it.

“There is a line for the bathroom sometimes, but it’s not a big deal,” Brandt said.

“You just have to hold it in for five minutes.”

But the Burnetts don’t just provide beds and a roof. They realize the players don’t make very much money and don’t eat well all the time. When the team is on the road, the players usually have to rely on fast food or takeout to satisfy their hunger after a late game. As a result, the Burnetts like to keep the refrigerator and cabinets stocked.

“I get the food, and they pretty much go for whatever they want,” Desiree Burnett said.

She also buys anything else the players might need, including muscle balm after a tough game, and even washes their baseball pants so that they’re as white as they can be before games. While she provides motherly services, she husband takes care of the fatherly duties, like giving some players an earful for chewing tobacco.

“We treat them like they’re our children,” he said. “I always give them unwelcome fatherly advice.”

While the fatherly advice may be unwelcomed, the players are thankful for everything the Burnetts provide.

“I can’t say how grateful I am to come home and have meat in the freezer and food in the fridge,” Brandt said. “Sometimes when I come home from a road trip, my bed will be made. John and Desiree Burnett are extremely generous.”

All the generosity is really no big deal

to the Burnetts. After their three children grew up and left the house, they were more than happy to have people to talk to.

They also get free tickets to Fuego games.

Host families get one ticket per player per game.

“We enjoy the interaction,” John Burnett said. “The three empty rooms were just empty space. On a strictly selfish point of view, we get to get into free games.”

Once the Fuego season ends, the players will leave the homes to go back to their home states — and they will be missed.

“When Charles leaves, it’s going to be a sad moment,” Blea said. “I’ve already opened my home to him if he comes back next year. Hopefully, he’s a big-league hot shot by then.”

Johnson is hoping to be in the big leagues next season, but he is not going to forget Blea’s helping hand.

“It’s humbling that somebody is willing to share their lives with you and open up themselves for you,” Johnson said. “I was thinking about getting Anna a lot of gifts before I leave just to show her that I’m grateful.”

Blea is not looking for gifts though. She is just happy to share whatever she can with someone who needs it, and she wants to make Johnson’s dream a little easier to obtain.

“There are so many obstacles in life that we humans face on a daily basis, and if I could eliminate or minimize a hurdle for Charles, I would definitely do it,” Blea said. “He can achieve his dream just a little bit easier. I believe that if I have extra, I’m going to share it with you. I’m honored that I was able to share that with Charles, and I’m glad I made the choice to open up my home for a guy like him.”

Cavs: Roster features Anthony Bennett Continued from Page D-1 lead his home team to a title that has eluded the city in all major sports for 50 years.

“We have to pull for the Cavaliers now,” Charles Barkley said on NBA TV. “We have to pull for that team.”

Some will, but it’s going to be a challenge.

Toronto (Kyle Lowry) and Washington (Marcin Gortat) held on to key pieces from their up-and-coming squads. Brooklyn believes it has another year to contend if Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett stick around, and the Knicks have been telling Carmelo Anthony they expect to be better if he returns.

Even James’ old team could remain formidable with Chris Bosh sticking around and Dwyane Wade expected to do the same, setting up the potential for a wideopen Eastern Conference race that didn’t exist while the Heat ruled it since 2011.

But in the hours after James announced he was trading Biscayne Bay for Lake Erie, it was hard not to get excited about the Cavs’ possibilities.

“LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and Andrew

Wiggins have the potential to be a great ‘Big 3,’ ” Hall of Famer Magic Johnson wrote on Twitter.

His Lakers tussled with one of the best, the Celtics with Bird, Kevin McHale and Robert Parish. Boston later had another championship trio with Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, and the Spurs’ core of Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili is the winningest postseason trio of them all.

It was those models that forced James to leave home in the first place, realizing he needed the help he found with Wade and Bosh. He boasted of “not two, not three, not four …” titles upon his arrival, though he abandoned that chase to return to Ohio.

There’s potential there. Irving was the MVP of the All-Star game last year, and Wiggins was the No. 1 pick in the draft.

The Cavs’ roster features a fourth No. 1 pick, Anthony Bennett, who struggled badly as a rookie last season but should benefit from a full offseason after he was sidelined while recovering from shoulder surgery last summer.

But potential has gotten many coaches fired.

Oddsmakers, however, seemed con-

vinced, many Las Vegas sports books making the Cavs a 4-1 favorite to win the championship. It will be the fifth straight season James’ team is the preseason NBA favorite, according to RJ Bell, founder of the website Pregame.com.

The other team with them is the Spurs, who got Duncan to return and re-signed coach Gregg Popovich and key players Boris Diaw and Patty Mills to multiyear deals. If they can get Pau Gasol, who tweeted Friday that he’s close to deciding on a team, it’s hard to envision much dropoff from last season’s 62 victories.

But the Spurs are always a sure thing.

Things are more uncertain for James and his new team.

He knew he was on an instant title contender when he went to Miami. Even he realizes that may not be the case heading home.

The road to the Eastern Conference championship may no longer go through Miami. The question is whether it still goes through James.

“LeBron’s still in the East,” new Knicks coach Derek Fisher said. “It still makes my job difficult.”

u St. Michael’s will hold a camp July 21-24 at Christian Brothers Athletic Complex. Cost is $120 per camper. The camp will be done in two segments. Camp for boys and girls ages 5-10 will be from 9 a.m. to noon, and camp for girls ages 11-17 is from 1 to 4 p.m.

For more information, visit www.stmichaelssf.org/activities_&_ athletics/camps/.

Swimming u The Santa Fe Seals are offering a summer special for practices from Mondays through Thursdays at the Genoveva Chavez Community Center. Practice for the novice group is from 3:30 to 5 p.m., and the advanced group goes from 9 to 11 a.m. For more information, call coach Theresa Hamilton at 660-9818.

Netherlands blanks Brazil, finishes third Van Persie, Blind score early to help give the Dutch a 3-0 victory

By Tales Azzoni The Associated Press

BRASILIA, Brazil — When it was all over, it was the Netherlands receiving a standing ovation from the Brazilian crowd.

Brazil walked off the field to boos, after another demoralizing loss to end its home World Cup. The Netherlands’ remarkable campaign ended on a high note after Robin van Persie and Daley Blind scored early goals to help give the team a 3-0 win over Brazil in the third-place game on Saturday.

“We can look back at a very successful tournament,” Dutch coach Louis Van Gaal said. “I’m proud of my players.”

The Netherlands finishes a World Cup unbeaten in regular play for the first time, having lost to Argentina on penalties in the semifinals. After finishing runner-up in 2010, the third place is the best position for the Dutch squad since it lost the final in 1974 and 1978.

The Brazilian fans loudly greeted the Dutch players after they received the third-place medals, applauding on their feet.

“I would like to thank all people in Brazil for their great support,” Arjen Robben said.

“For us, it was the best way to end this tournament. We fully deserved third place the way we played. It’s a very big achievement.”

The loss added to Brazil’s frustration at the home tournament following the disastrous 7-1 defeat to Germany. After the final whistle, the team was loudly booed by the nearly 70,000 fans that attended the match at the National Stadium in Brasilia. Many had already left even before the late third goal by the Dutch. It’s the first time since 1940 that Brazil lost two consecutive competitive games on home soil.

“It’s a terrible feeling, I don’t know what to say,” Oscar said.

“After a huge loss to Germany, today we tried our best from the beginning to win third place but it wasn’t our day. We have to see what went wrong so we can improve for the future.”

Brazil conceding 14 goals in the tournament, the most ever for the team. The previous worst had been 11 goals in the 1938 World Cup. Now it conceded 10 in its last two games.

“It was supposed to be an even match but after the early

goal things started going their way,” Scolari said. “I don’t think we played that bad. The players fought hard from the start. They created chances, so it’s difficult to lose 3-0. But they deserve all the credit in the end, they reached the semifinals.”

Van Persie converted a penalty kick three minutes into the match after Robben was brought down by Brazil captain Thiago Silva on the edge of the area. Blind added to the lead in the 17th with a shot from near the penalty spot after defender David Luiz made a mistake while trying to clear a cross in front of the goal. Georginio Wijnaldum rounded off the win in injury time with a shot inside the near post.

“The most beautiful was our resilience. We were knocked out but we came back and finished third,” Wijnaldum said.

“We wanted to close it out well.”

Brazil looked lost from the start, making many of the same defensive mistakes that marked the historic defeat to the Germans four days ago. The Netherlands took advantage with quick passes and speed in the attack.

Silva had to foul Robben after being beaten on the run, leading to van Persie’s firm left-foot shot into the right upper corner to put the Dutch ahead.

The Dutch wanted a red card for Silva for a professional foul, but Algerian referee Djamel Haimoudi only gave him a yellow. Silva had missed the semifinal against Germany because of a yellow card suspension.

WORLD CUP WIN MAY HELP LIONEL MESSI WIN OVER ARGENTINE FANS

By Jeré Longman The New York Times

RIO DE JANEIRO rgentine fans unfurled a banner at a World Cup semifinal match in São Paulo depicting Diego Maradona on one side, Lionel Messi on the other and Pope Francis in the middle.

The fans chanted, “Olé, olé, olé, Messi, Messi,” but the relationship with their star remains complicated. A full embrace will not come unless Messi can win soccer’s ultimate prize against Germany on Sunday, just as Maradona did in 1986.

Four times, Messi has been named the world player of the year. He has won three European championships with Barcelona. Some consider him the greatest player of all time. But even if he wins a World Cup, he will not be viewed as Maradona’s equal by many in Argentina, at least not yet, for reasons having as much to do with class, personality, history and distance as with soccer.

“Messi is St. Peter, but Maradona is God,” said Mariano Capretti, 39, whose family owns a clothing factory in Buenos Aires.

To be sure, Messi, 27, is fully welcomed into Argentina’s national team. It has been built around him. He is the captain.

He has scored four goals at this World Cup, delivering a late winner against Iran in group play and making the decisive pass in a second-round victory over Switzerland.

So dependent is Argentina on Messi for sustenance that Alejandro Sabella, the coach, said he provided “water in the desert.”

Javier Mascherano, a teammate of Messi’s with Argentina and Barcelona, told reporters: “He gives us illusion, makes us believe we can be champions. He’s from outer space.”

In the eyes of some, particularly the young in Argentina, who were not yet born when Maradona was in his splendor, Messi has already supplanted him as a revered figure.

“Messi was four times the world player of the year,” said Ivan Ramadan, 15, of Buenos Aires. He added: “If Messi wins the World Cup, he will be the best player of all time. Maradona is famous around the world, but some people don’t like him.

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like Messi.”

Yet there has long been a kind of dis-

A

trust, a separation, between many Argentine fans and Messi. He left for Barcelona at age 13 to receive growth hormone treatments. He was so small that Gerard Piqué, a teammate on Barcelona’s youth team and its senior team, thought that Messi’s legs looked like fingers. Today, at 5-foot-7, he is nicknamed the Flea.

As Messi grew into a star, it was in Spain, not Argentina. He was remote, his biggest triumphs accessible on television, not in the stadium. He did not have the same success with Argentina’s national team, which left the World Cup in the quarterfinals in 2006 and 2010.

But there has since been a perceived elevation in Messi’s commitment, his passion, his sense of obligation to Argentina, particularly in the way he has played in Brazil. And there has been a softening in the suspicions about his loyalty.

“We had the feeling that his emotions, his feelings, were for Spain,” Pamela Homes, 29, a student, said at an encampment of Argentine fans in tents and mobile homes in Rio de Janeiro. “But without a doubt, he is Argentine. We love him. He’s playing with his heart.”

Messi has scored 42 goals in 92 games with Argentina’s national team and five goals in 14 World Cup matches. That compares with 34 goals in 91 national team appearances and eight goals in 21 World Cup matches for Maradona. In three World Cups, Messi has yet to score in a knockout round. Maradona’s goals were more plentiful and urgent. And he has held up the trophy. So apprehension lingers about Messi.

“He’s still in debt to us,” said Oscar Bazan, 59, who drove a month from Mendoza, Argentina, to the World Cup, selling tabletop soccer games to pay for each leg of his trip. “He hasn’t given us yet what he has given Barcelona.”

At a viewing party in a Buenos Aires apartment Wednesday, some fans grew impatient as Messi could not impose his will against rugged marking by the Netherlands. He did not touch the ball in the penalty area until the scoreless semifinal extended after 120 minutes to a shootout.

He seemed frustrated, static, at times disengaged. Perhaps he was dampened by the absence of his favorite outlet, the injured winger Ángel di María, or

by Sabella’s decision to depend more on order than on creativity in reaching the final. Or perhaps his exertion is not always evident in his elegance.

After 105 minutes, Messi still had not

made a clever, feinting run with the ball, a gambeta, at which Maradona was a master, Axel Mendilaharzu, 24, said in annoyance.

“He hasn’t shown up for the match,” said Mendilaharzu, who works in the marketing department for a broadcasting company.

“Why is he so switched off?” said Agustín Calderón, 24, a lawyer in training.

Diego Ferreiro, 56, the owner of the apartment, made a gesture with his hands to show that Maradona played fiercely even with his ankles inflamed.

“This boy, no,” said Ferreiro, who works in the logistics department of a hygiene company. “It’s impossible that he will reach Maradona.”

For many, Maradona’s legend is unassailable. The game was in his blood, not just his head and his legs. Where Messi is middle-class and phlegmatic, Maradona was poor and outrageous, even anarchic.

He was a boy of the slums who established his greatness in Argentina before leaving home. His glory was tempered by his demons, including drugs, which only made him more endearing and accessible to many, a man of possibility and frailty.

Messi, meanwhile, has been viewed in Argentina as having a life seemingly too normal and tranquil to stir excitement, said the Argentine novelist Eduardo Sacheri.

“Messi is profoundly Argentine,” said Sacheri, 46, “but what Diego has is that we feel represented both by his virtues and his shadows.”

At the 1986 World Cup, Maradona scored or assisted on 10 of Argentina’s 14 goals. In a quarterfinal match, he scored two of soccer’s most famous goals, one on a brilliant slalom through England’s defense and the other on a fisted shot that was said to have been conjured by the hand of God. The victory was viewed as national redemption for Argentina, which had four years earlier lost the Falklands War to Britain. Two matches later, against West Germany in the final, Maradona provided a vital pass for the winning goal.

“It will always be remembered as Maradona’s World Cup,” Brian Glanville wrote in the book The Story of the World Cup. “Seldom has a player, even Pelé, so dominated the competition. In an era when individual talent was at a premium, defensive football more prevalent than ever, Maradona — squat, muscular, explosive, endlessly adroit — showed that a footballer of genius could still prevail.”

Winner: In 111 games, Loew has 76 wins, 20 draws and 15 losses Continued from Page D-1 With the German public expecting nothing less than the title at Euro 2012, Loew’s team lost to Italy in the semifinals, with the coach widely blamed for the defeat by picking wrong tactics and wrong players.

Germany breezed through the qualifying for the tournament in Brazil but the only blemish was a spectacular one — allowing Sweden to rally from a four-goal deficit to earn a 4-4 draw in Germany. Critics said Loew had failed to react from the touchline

and made no attempt to interrupt the Swedish momentum.

Loew was Jurgen Klinsmann’s assistant for two years before taking over after the 2006 World Cup. He was widely credited for being the mastermind behind the tactics of Klinsmann’s team.

As head coach, Loew continued to rely on a crop of young players coming out of Germany’s youth academies, showing no reluctance to cut veterans he did not trust to do the job any more, including former captain Michael Ballack.

Throughout the years, Loew and his staff kept fine-tuning the style Loew wanted his team to play: a passing game modeled on the Spanish tikitaka, fast breaks with a quick transition from defense to attack and creative players who could be deployed in several positions.

Loew raised eyebrows in Germany ahead of this World Cup by picking only one true striker, 36-year-old veteran Miroslav Klose. He then caused some consternation by choosing four central defenders for his back four, with no trained fullbacks in the start-

ing lineup.

Loew showed flexibility that was not always there in the past when he improved Germany’s game by dropping the “false nine” system, returning captain Philipp Lahm to fullback and inserting Klose into the starting 11.

“For me, he is a fantastic coach,” Klose said. “He always has new ideas in training. He’s always spoken a lot with the players. He’s brought in new tactics.”

Loew said he and his players discuss different ideas but ultimately it’s him who makes the decisions and

sticks with them. He said he wouldn’t change his thinking because of outside suggestions, such as those made by television pundits back home.

“I am following a clear line, and I will not adjust it just to please the public opinion,” Loew said.

The 54-year-old coach has an impressive record. In 111 games in charge, he has 76 wins, 20 draws and 15 losses.

Securing the country’s fourth World Cup crown, after an absence of 24 years, would put Loew on a pedestal in Germany.

CYCLING

French rider leads way on wet ride in Tour de France

By Ian Austen The New York Times

GÉRARDMER, France — Blel Kadri, a French rider who is frequently assigned by his team to join early and generally unsuccessful breakaways, was rewarded for his efforts Saturday when the Tour de France made its way to the Vosges mountains.

A member of the day’s early break, Kadri finished by himself at the Mauselaine ski resort here during a the eighth stage, which set a new low for bad weather in a Tour that has already had too much of it.

The final climb to the finish was short — a bit more than a mile — but brutal, with its grade reaching 16 percent at one point.

As Kadri rolled to the line with a lead of 2 minutes 17 seconds, Alberto Contador, the two-time champion from Spain, used the steep pitch to test the legs of Vincenzo Nibali of Italy, the current leader. Contador gapped Nibali briefly and gained three seconds on him at the line, finishing second for the day.

Nibali placed third and has an overall lead of 1:44 over Jakob Fuglsang, a Danish rider who is an Astana teammate.

Contador is sixth, 2:34 behind Nibali.

Afterward, Nibali blamed his selection of the wrong gear during the final part of the climb for Contador’s escape.

“Today’s finish is not a finish made for me,” Nibali said at a news conference. “I don’t like the steep grades.”

Contador said that when he attacked Nibali, he mistakenly thought he might win the stage, which started in Tomblaine and covered a relatively short 100 miles.

“I didn’t know if there was someone in front, whether I was riding for the stage win or not, so I accelerated,” he

said.

Richie Porte of Australia, another contender for the overall win who took over Team Sky after Chris Froome’s abandonment, was fourth, four seconds behind Nibali.

(L’Équipe, the French sports daily, reported Saturday that Froome, who crashed three times over two days before quitting, received a diagnosis in Monaco, where he lives, that found he had a fractured left wrist and a broken right hand.)

Along the route of Friday’s stage, a sign handwritten in English and placed outside a house read: “Sorry 4

The Weather. It’s Not My Fault.”

There was even more to apologize for Saturday as the race passed through an electrical storm, falling temperatures and heavy downpours mixed with steady showers.

Andrew Talansky, the U.S. leader of Garmin Sharp, was one of the storm’s victims. Following up on his dramatic and hard crash at the finish line in Nancy on Friday, he crashed with a number of riders, apparently on a slippery curve.

Television showed him struggling to remount his chain, this time with the help of a female spectator.

Do-it-yourself project takes time — and pain

Work to slow climate change starts at home

Putting the ‘Oh!’ in patio

A

lthough climate change has been in the forefront of scientific discussion for decades, it seems only recently that the media and the public at large have begun a serious discussion about it.

Riding on the coattails of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Fifth Assessment Report this year, the U.S. government released its own study recently, drawing acute attention to the problem of climate change as a real and present threat to our health, comfort, food and water security, and national security. All of this — based on decades of scientific study from around the world, and the measured data of rising average temperatures, increasing severity of droughts, wildfires and increasing intensity of storms — leads us to the question: What is next?

The evidence is clear.

Human activity is the largest contributor to a rapidly changing climate. It’s not that the Earth has never experienced climate change before. In fact, the Earth’s climate is constantly changing, and fluctuations in greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere have occurred repeatedly throughout the eons. However, what makes this time unique and unprecedented is that one species (that’s TO U R | H O M E & G A R D EN us) has developed itself and its society to a point never before seen on Earth. One species has now harnessed MORE HOME sources of energy (in This column runs the form of carbon-rich regularly in Home, coal, oil and gas) to fuel Santa Fe Real its own expansion and Estate Guide. Look fruition upon the Earth. for Home inside And to such an extent The New Mexican that all other species, every first Sunday and the climate stability of the month and that allowed that diverat www.santafe sity of species to evolve, newmexican. could be affected. com/life/home.

What does this fact have to do with buildings and real estate?

Everything, actually. When looking at the data, we are faced with the fact that buildings (including our homes) account for the single largest source of greenhouse gas emissions. That is to say, buildings are where we consume the largest amount of energy across our economy. Heating, cooling, lighting, charging, washing, pumping, watching, refrigerating — more energy is consumed in our buildings than in transportation, agriculture or industry, respectively.

At the same time, the building sector also provides the largest source of low-cost and easily attainable reductions in energy consumption and thus greenhouse gas emissions. In many cases, the climate-friendly options in our homes are those options that also save us money. The use of highefficiency boilers for heating, LED lighting and Energy Star appliances all save us money over the long term and reduce energy consumption.

Reduced energy consumption at home means less fossil fuel combustion at the power plant, and less impact on climate. Unlike climate-change mitigation strategies in other sectors, high-performance building options are off-the-shelf ready — no need for advanced futuristic solutions. Whether via retrofit or by way of new construction, highperformance homes have dramatic impact on the long-term outlook for climate change. High-performance building techniques are the “low-hanging fruit” of climate change mitigation.

Luna the dog sits on Bob Tedeschi’s new patio in Guilford, Conn., last week. After all the designing, hauling, shaping and digging that go into building a patio, some people will need time to recuperate. TONY CENICOLA/THE NEW YORK TIMES

By Bob Tedeschi The New York Times

T

here’s a fine line between pragmatism and masochism, and I just crossed it.

A few weeks ago, my wife and I were lamenting the dearth of useful space in our backyard, and we came up with two options: expand our tiny deck or build a patio.

Our local health department nixed the former because of our septic-tank setback guidelines, so I told a few landscaping experts I might tackle a patio project with the help of my wife, Karen.

David Christensen, an owner of Christensen Landscape Services in Connecticut, looked at me with an arched eyebrow and said, “You sure you want to do that?”

Amber Freda, the owner of Amber Freda Home & Garden Design, said: “That’s not something I’d do on my own. It’s intensely hard work.”

Chris Peterson, lead editor of Black & Decker’s book The Complete Guide to Patios & Walkways, said: “It’s doable. But it’s a lot of work.”

Work? Work is easy!

After absorbing my advisers’ counsel, enduring one full week of punishing work and putting Karen through a weekend of intense muscle strain, I can attest to the fact that a modest-size patio — 10 by 15 feet — is indeed doable, as long as you start off by getting a few things.

First, get your head examined.

If, like me, you make the big mistake of watching do-it-yourself videos sponsored by companies who sell patio supplies, you may be seduced into thinking you can do the job in a weekend.

And maybe you could, too, if you had a team of experienced masons working alongside you.

The second thing to get is a multitude of muscle, spread out over at least two bodybuilder friends who owe you a huge favor. Ideally, one of those friends will own a truck, and the other will own a skid-steer machine, like a Bobcat. If not, you should consider renting one of each, or finding more friends to help carry the load.

Beyond that, you’ll need a good wheelbarrow, tape measure, shovel, level, line level, masonry string, a framer’s square, PVC piping, two long two-by-fours, a rubber mallet, a rented plate compactor and an economy-size bottle of ibuprofen, among other things.

A good book, like Peterson’s, is highly useful in covering the dozens of steps and technical nuances that can affect the final product. It also covers materials and procedures for specific patio varieties.

The core job involves little more than digging and carting many hundreds of pounds of earth and filling the hole with tons (literally) of rock, sand and some sort of flat, hard surface.

Amid the grunt work, you will also encounter some carpentry, some mathematics and a fair bit of design.

If, like me, you make the big mistake of watching do-it-yourself videos sponsored by companies who sell patio supplies, you may be seduced into thinking you can do the job in a weekend. And maybe you could, too, if you had a team of experienced masons working alongside you.

Don’t be fooled. For my patio, I was responsible for lifting and moving almost 13 tons of material, including well more than 1 ton of soil, 5 tons of gravel, 1 ton of sand, 4 tons of bricks for a retaining wall and almost 2 tons of pavers.

Because my patio site was sloped, I needed around 50 percent more gravel than similarsize patios, but whatever. Try moving even 8 tons of material in one weekend, let alone crafting and shaping the material properly.

ASK A DESIGNER

Finding timeless beauty in subtlety

By Melissa Rayworth The Associated Press

Paint your walls a bold color and friends will likely praise your creativity.

Invest in a standout piece of furniture or striking work of art and your decorating is bound to earn compliments. But creating a noteworthy room with subtle, understated elegance is a bit more complicated.

Understated style “rides the fine line between too sparse and too cold,” says designer Brian Patrick Flynn, creator of the FlynnsideOut design blog. “A lack of objects makes a room feel unfinished, and a lack of color can also read of lifeless.”

But finding the right, subtle balance can be worth it. Although bold decorating has been in the spotlight for a while,

sothebyshomes.com/santafe 231 Washington Avenue | Santa Fe, NM 87501 505.988.8088

a more neutral room, if well-designed, “will never become tired,” Flynn says.

“Every once in a while, it’s nice to have a space that’s just simple and clean,” he says.

How do you design a room that’s lowkey and beautiful, not bland and boring?

Soften every surface Without warm, vibrant colors, you can create warmth in understated rooms by filling them with soft, elegant materials that look and feel appealing.

“Think of a camel cashmere sweater,” says designer Betsy Burnham of Burnham Design in Los Angeles. “It’s the simplest thing in the world,” but it’s timelessly beautiful and feels great.

E-7

Patio: Doing work yourself can save thousands, but be prepared Continued from Page E-1 Then enjoy working from the ER on Monday.

Also, bear in mind that even if you have materials delivered to your driveway, you will need to move everything to your patio site. My backyard is 30 paces from my driveway.

So do as Peterson suggests, and spread out the work over a couple of weekends, at least.

You can save yourself added grief by paying for delivery.

I spent at least seven hours carting pallets of pavers and truckloads of masonry sand and unloading it all with a Bobcat.

I also used the Bobcat to move the gravel that was delivered to my driveway by a monster dump truck. (I paid $200 for that delivery.)

Bobcats aren’t for everyone, of course. Rental companies in my area offered them for around $300 a day, and I have no question the machine saved my back and my sanity.

But if you go this route, study the company’s online training resources and get a friend with some experience to guide you

at the start. As with any heavy machinery, it has great destructive potential to match its productive potential, and mistakes can be fatal.

When choosing patio surfaces, consider concrete pavers or granite or flagstone in consistent thicknesses. Natural stone is sometimes sold in varying thicknesses, though, and setting these stones at a consistent level can be frustrating in the extreme, so beware.

On Freda’s recommendation, I chose concrete pavers that look similar to stone but come in consistent shapes. (I used the Bradstone line, from Nicolock, which features contours and flaws that you would find in natural stone.) As for designs, Freda said I should ideally choose a site that requires less digging, but I had no options on that front.

Finally, think about color: “What’s around it? A little contrast might be nice,” she said.

Gray and lilac worked for us.

Peterson said simpler patio shapes are better for beginners because curves often require cuts, and cuts often require extra tools, skills and profan-

ity. A 10-by-15-foot rectangular patio is a good size for a beginner with a big backyard, he said. If you have a simple shape, when you select stones ask the salesperson if the stones come precut in dimensions that might allow you to lay out an entire patio without cutting.

Our layout worked out well, mostly by chance. Our pavers came in four sizes, all with squared-off edges, and they fit almost perfectly in our rectangular space. Peterson said some manufacturers sell kits for shaped patios, and the stones are all numbered according to their place in the layout.

Before digging, call to have your utility companies clear your plan. But even then, Christensen said, homeowners should use extreme caution, especially if your home was occupied before you. If previous owners added underground power lines for backyard lights, he said, such lines may escape a utility company’s notice.

After you get the OK to dig, schedule your days carefully. I budgeted two days for digging, one for filling the hole and one

for laying the stones, and this was lunacy. I actually needed seven days altogether.

It took two days to design the layout, build the batter boards, set up the guide strings and mark the so-called “story pole.” (The batter boards are U-shaped braces that hold the guidelines and can withstand the inevitable kicks and bumps from people and wheelbarrows. A story pole shows you the depth of the surface in relation to your guide strings, so you know how much material you’ve added with each successive layer.)

After that, I needed two days to dig. Christensen said he devotes two days and two full-time employees to make a hole like mine, but I hurried and my body paid dearly for it.

My advisers suggested digging at least 6 inches deep, which accommodates 4 inches of compacted gravel, 1 inch of sand and the depth of the pavers. My pit of despair averaged 8 inches deep because it’s on a slope, so the back of the pit needed to be deeper than the front.

If you don’t pay for delivery,

allot one day to gather materials and rest.

Next, devote one day to hauling and spreading gravel and compacting it, and spreading the sand. These are tricky steps because you must strive for an even surface with a slight slope so water runs off. Christensen suggested a slope of a quarterinch for every foot, while others say a more gradual slope will suffice.

Before pouring sand, place PVC pipes a few feet apart on the packed gravel surface. Then cover the pipes with sand and drag a long two-by-four across the top of the pipes, thereby leaving a 1-inch layer.

I would then allot one day for placing the stones — using thin scrap wood for spacers between pavers — and for pouring and sweeping sand atop the pavers and into the gaps and bracing the pavers with edging brackets.

Some recommend filling the paver gaps with polymeric sand, which creates a bonded surface between pavers. My advisers disagreed on its effectiveness, so we’re leaving it out for now.

Our biggest mistake was

not accounting for the added work and expense of a patio built on a sloped surface. The added digging was a bear, but Peterson said the slope of our patio and the surrounding area might eventually force our patio stones downhill. So while we had all our machinery and materials, we decided to build a short retaining wall.

Christensen said I might have been able to get away without the wall, and I may yet have to modify it. (If the wall’s gaps won’t let enough water pass, I will perforate the blocks with a drill.) But once this is done, I’d rather not worry about it.

A 20-foot wall, 14 inches high and topped with 3-inch capstones, added roughly $700 to the project. Combined with the roughly $1,700 spent on pavers, gravel, compactor, sand, supplies and Bobcat rental, the total was around $3,000.

Christensen said we saved around $2,000 by doing it ourselves. Great.

Am I happy with it? Absolutely. Would I do it again? Not in a million years.

THE NEW MEXICAN Sunday, July 13, 2014

TIME OUT

Exploring nature

H

Horoscope HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, July 13, 2014: This year you will benefit from one or several important relationships. You will prefer to relate on a one-on-one level, even if the person is a business associate. You are able to take in a lot of information and naturally nurture others. If you are single, you could meet someone when dealing with a money matter. If you are attached, the two of you bond even more.

Aquarius is always a good friend.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Those around you appreciate what you say and your suggestions. If you have a matter of importance on your mind, opening up a discussion today is smart. You respond to a friend in a most unexpected manner.

Do understand if you sense some distancing from this person. Tonight: Throw a barbecue for your friends.

This Week: You could be in a funk for several days. You will do a lot of thinking and emerge better than you thought possible.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Reach out for what you want, and even if you get a “no” right away, don’t give up.

Detach from a situation, and you will see all the dynamics.

Your choices will be solid. A partner or loved one could be remote. This behavior is not new! Tonight: Get a head start on tomorrow.

This Week: Try not to be stubborn on Monday. If you succeed, the rest of the week might be quite delightful and easy.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Reach out for a loved one or a friend at a distance who you rarely chat with. Once you reconnect, you are like two gabby girls catching up on news. Consider a trip in the near future to visit each other.

Good friends are few and far between. Tonight: Let your imagination make the call.

This Week: Use Monday and Thursday for any creative projects or issues.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH A close loved one will want your time and attention. You might need to change plans, upsetting another person. Make sure you make the appropriate gesture to the person you can-

Last week’s answer

celed with and schedule a fun happening right away. Tonight: Just don’t be alone.

This Week: Someone wants to pull in quite close. Make sure you want this person in your inner circle.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH You might want to slow down and get some extra R and R. You can only push so hard to achieve the interactions you would like. Relate directly to each individual right now.

Tonight: So what if tomorrow is Monday? Live it up.

This Week: Others actively seek you out. Don’t feel as if you must respond in a certain manner. Be willing to say no.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You have the ability to move past others’ stuff and see a situation for what it is. An older relative or friend pays you an important compliment. You do go out of your way for this person often. A surprise involving a partner or loved one is likely.

Tonight: Express your feelings.

This Week: Dig into work and accomplish as much as you can or would like. You could be distracted midweek; your popularity interferes with your concentration.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Stay anchored and don’t waffle when someone does the unexpected. Kick back and watch. A child or new friend needs extra time and attention.

Saying yes at times like this will build a deeper bond, leaving lots of memories. Decide what

would delight this person, and do it. Tonight: Naughty and nice.

This Week: Honor a change of pace. Make it OK to be a little frivolous.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Have a long overdue talk with a family member or roommate. You have been holding your feelings back. Express your emotions, even if you are angry. It is important to keep your interactions as clear as possible. Tonight: Conjure up a special meal.

This Week: You might feel pressured Monday, yet from Tuesday on, your ingenuity eliminates many problems.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Don’t stand on ceremony with another person. Make a call and patch up a disagreement. You cannot always agree with each other. The situation is no different now, but you can respect each other’s views. Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s news.

This Week: Communicate your needs. Give others the space to respond.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Fortunately, you are good with money and juggle different concerns well. Explain why you make the choices you do more often. A loved one or friend would love to understand your financial wisdom more. Tonight: Your wish is another person’s command.

This Week: Be aware of the cost of a project before you launch into it. You might think you know the financial implications, but might get a surprise on the way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You feel revived and vital.

Touch base with a friend who might not be feeling up to snuff.

Your call actually will help this person feel better. Communications are lively. You might have a mini-tiff with a child. Let it go. Really, it isn’t as bad as you think. Tonight: Don’t allow another’s negativity to impact you. Be yourself.

Scratch pad

ave I ever told you how much I love nature — trees and bees and deer and babbling brooks and other outdoorsy, green and brown nature-y stuff?

That’s right, I haven’t. And do you know why I haven’t?

Because I’m not a liar. I’ve seen nature, and it doesn’t impress me. I grew up in the Bronx. Trees just make it harder to play stickball in the gutter. The only time I went camping was 30 years ago in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, when my dog, a collie named Augie, almost died from blood loss due to carpets of mosquitoes swarming her eyes and her belly, the only two spots a collie has upon which these opportunistic, droning, whining barbarians of nature can feast.

Gene In short, I tend to think about the Weingarten beauties and bounties of nature the way I think about men’s behinds — they’re The Washington OK, I suppose, and I know other people Post appreciate them a lot, but just don’t shove them in my face all the time, OK? So how can we explain that I just came back from a completely voluntary day trip, in nearly 100-degree heat, to Rock Creek Park, Washington, D.C.’s, 2,000-acre unspoiled nature place?

Here’s how: My column is published nationally but it originates in The Washington Post Magazine, which is run by an editor named Lynn, who somehow never got the memo that I am a beloved national treasure who gets to write what he wants when he wants to, dagnabbit. A few weeks ago, Lynn informed me that the magazine is doing a whole issue related to Rock Creek Park and that it would be “nice” — she said “nice” real nice, but it was like Hitler observing it might be “nice” if France surrendered on its own before regrettable things happened — if my column was part of that package.

Lynn pays my salary. Like the odious traitor Pierre Laval, I capitulated. The deal was that I had to visit Rock Creek Park. From there — who knows? Commune with unspoiled nature, ramble in the woodsy forest, take a barefoot walk in the crick, maybe pitch a tent, start a fire with sticks, get in touch with my inner backwoodsman, cure my withered, citified soul.

Now, I know that Lynn worried that I’d do this grudgingly. But nothing could be further from the truth. I went off on this mission — did I mention it was almost 100 degrees Fahrenheit, the hottest day of the year? — entirely without rancor, particularly after doing some basic research on Rock Creek Park, which, according to the National Park Service website, is “truly a gem in our nation’s capital. It offers visitors an opportunity to reflect and soothe their spirits through the beauty of nature. Fresh air, majestic trees, wild animals, the ebb and flow of Rock Creek, and thousands of years of human history emanate [from] the delicate aura of the forest.”

Well, I am back from Rock Creek Park and can report that nature is swell. Seriously! I was a nature-hater, but I am here to say I was wrong, wrong, wrong.

I had not been in the park for five minutes when I spotted my first wildlife, and, as God is my witness, it was a bear! In downtown Washington! A big, lumbering bear, not 50 feet away; but ensconced as I was in this unsullied nature place, I felt no fear. Not long after, looking up, I saw an orangutan in a tree, swinging from limb to limb.

By the time my day at Rock Creek Park was over, I had also seen a 150-pound Komodo dragon, a really fancy-looking shrimp, four zebras, an elephant and a giant panda.

Thanks for the day at the zoo, Lynn. You probably didn’t know this — most people don’t — but, technically, the National Zoo is considered part of Rock Creek Park. You can look it up.

I’ll be filing my expenses for the hummus, the beer and the Dippin’ Dots.
