The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office has identified an 18-year-old Santa Fe man found dead in a vehicle of apparent gunshot wounds, along with his 13-year-old girlfriend, as Venancio Cisneros and said both deaths are being treated as homicides.
Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office Capt. Adan Mendoza said detectives knew Cisneros, whose body was found in a car with the girl’s Saturday morning in a residential neighborhood off N.M. 14. The girl, whose name was not released due to her age, was a frequent runaway from her

ickie Perea sure acts like a politician. But she runs away from that description while running for office. Perea served one term on the Albuquerque City Council in the 1990s after a long career as a city employee. In the 17 years since, Perea has lost elections for mayor of Albuquerque, secretary of state and the state Senate. Gov. Susana Milan Martinez resurSimonich rected Perea from Ringside Seat the graveyard of failed candidates by appointing her last year to fill a vacancy in the state House of Representatives. Perea, a Republican from Belen, replaced the late Rep. Stephen Easley, D-Santa Fe. Perea is the incumbent by political appointment, not someone elected by the voters of House District 50. Even so, she uses the word politician as a slur against others, especially her opponent in the November election. “We can’t trust politician Matthew McQueen,” Perea, 68, says in one direct-mail advertisement. McQueen, 47, an attorney from Galisteo, is running for public office for the first time. “Vote no on Matthew McQueen. He’s not honest,” Perea says in her mailer without offering any evidence against him. Alley fighters don’t worry about low blows. Then Perea calls herself “an honest leader.” She wouldn’t want voters to consider her a dishonest candidate because she’s treating her five campaigns for political office as a memory lapse. Perea, a former Democrat, is following this year’s trite formula. GOP candidates and the political organizations helping them are running remarkably similar ads, all of them disparaging politicians. Martinez, in her sixth campaign for

Law enforcement officers from multiple agencies found and eradicated about 100 marijuana plants growing in the Santa Fe National Forest over the weekend north of Interstate 25 and N.M. 3 near El Valle after Las Vegas, N.M., police were tipped off to drug activity in the area. Las Vegas police Deputy Chief Eugene Garcia confirmed that a tip from the public led two officers on a hunt for possible drug growers off a U.S. Forest Service road at about 2 p.m. Friday. “About six miles in, they found a Mexican national,” Garcia said. The officers identified themselves to the person, and the suspect fired shots, Garcia said. The suspect then ran away, and the officers, who were not injured, called for backup. “They weren’t sure if they were being fired on or just being warned to stay away,” Garcia said. State police, San Miguel County sheriff’s deputies, the U.S. Forest Service and the state Office of Emergency Management assisted in the hunt for at least four suspects, Garcia said. A state police helicopter also joined the search. Officers set up a roadblock on N.M. 3 along the frontage road north of Interstate 25 from Friday afternoon until about 9 that evening, which kept dozens of people from reaching their homes in the area for a few hours. Garcia said three Mexican nationals were found walking a road in the

13 Europe banks flunk test, need 10B euros By David McHugh The Associated Press
FRANKFURT, Germany he European Central Bank says 13 of Europe’s 130 biggest banks have flunked an in-depth review of their finances and need an extra 10 billion euros ($12.5 billion) to cushion themselves against any future crises. Although the landmark review identified only a handful of weak banks, ECB officials said Sunday that it was tough enough to ensure Europe’s banks will be purged of the bad investments that have made some of them hold back on lending. That means the banks will be ready to lend to businesses when the economy finally picks up, they said. “The results guarantee that going forward the economic recovery will not be hampered by credit supply restrictions,” said ECB Vice President Vitor Constancio. Yet after months of talk about banks that were “zombies” — walking dead, too weak to lend — it appeared unlikely that any would be put out of business by the review’s results. The ECB, working with the European Banking Authority, checked the worth of banks’ holdings in a so-called asset quality review and subjected the banks to a stress test that simulates how their finances would fare in an economic downturn. The ECB said 25 banks were found to need 25 billion euros. Of those, 12 had already made up their shortfall during the months in which the ECB was carrying out its review, which was based on bank finances at the end of 2013. They found money by issuing new shares, or by shedding risky investments or loan businesses that reduced the amount of capital needed to backstop those holdings. The remaining 13 now have two weeks to tell the ECB how they plan to increase their capital buffers and up to nine months to actually carry out the plan. The hope is that by then, the banking system will be healthy enough to support, not hinder, the economy of the 18-country eurozone. The currency bloc did not grow at all in the second quarter, after four quarters of weak recovery. As it prepares to become the eurozone’s banking regulator, the ECB is under pressure to show its review will be more effective than similar tests carried out by the EU in 2010 and 2011 that gave a pass to banks that later needed bailouts. It had more information because it started with a thorough review of bank holdings, and used tougher financial definitions. For example, it found 136 billion euros in previously unidentified loans and other assets that were shaky and not being paid back on time. “It’s good to have the most obvious dead bodies brought up out of the basement,” said Michael Koetter, professor at the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management. He added it was only a start: “I think it would be naive to believe that one diligence exercise is going to get us to a clean slate and a new era.” Koetter said it remains to be seen how Europe’s new banking oversight system will work when it actually has to shut down a bank, a painful process that can provoke political opposition from the bank’s home government. A new agency to do that, called the single resolution board, will come fully on line only in 2016. Nicolas Veron, senior fellow at the Bruegel think tank in Brussels, noted that the review accomplished much by forcing banks to take steps ahead of time. “There has been a lot of proactive behavior by the banks,” he said. “They raised a lot of capital because of the stress test, but before the result.” “It’s only a start for the process of repair and for the return of trust, but I would argue at this point and with the information that we have, it’s an encouraging start.” Italy had most of the banks that needed more capital — 4 of the 13. The bank with the biggest shortfall was Italy’s Monte dei Paschi di Siena, which was found to need another 2.11 billion euros. Five of the banks — Eurobank, National Bank of Greece, Nova Ljubljanska Banka, Nova Kreditna Banka, and Dexia — will be able to make up for their capital shortfall simply by sticking to their current restructuring plans.

LAVA FLOWS IN HAWAII A small shed was consumed over the weekend by lava in a pasture between the Pahoa cemetery and a street near the town of Pahoa on the Big Island of Hawaii. Dozens of residents in this rural area of Hawaii were placed on alert as flowing lava continued to advance. Authorities on Sunday said lava had advanced about 250 yards since Saturday morning and was moving at the rate of about 10 to 15 yards an hour, consistent with its advancement in recent days. The flow front passed through a predominantly Buddhist cemetery, covering grave sites in the mostly rural region of Puna, and was roughly a half-mile from Pahoa Village Road, the main street of Pahoa.

In brief Hospital: Teen wounded in school shooting dies MARYSVILLE, Wash. — One of the teenagers wounded in a Washington state high school shooting has died, raising the number of fatalities from when a student opened fire in a cafeteria to three. Officials at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett said 14-year-old Gia Soriano died Sunday night. Another girl was killed during the shooting Friday by a popular freshman at Marysville-Pilchuck High School north of Seattle. The shooter, Jaylen Fryberg, died of a self-inflicted wound. Three other students remain hospitalized, two in critical condition and one in serious condition. Parents and students gathered in a gymnasium at the school Sunday afternoon for a community meeting, with speakers urging support and prayers and tribal members playing drums and singing songs. Fryberg was from a prominent Tulalip Indian family.
Pro-Western parties lead Ukrainian vote KIEV, Ukraine — Ukrainians overwhelmingly backed several pro-Western parties in a landmark parliamentary election Sunday, another nudge in the former Soviet republic’s drift away from Russia. Two exit polls released as voting closed indicated that President Petro Poroshenko’s party will secure a narrow win in the parliamentary election, falling substantially short of an outright majority. Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk’s Popular Front followed close behind.
Although they lead rival parties, Poroshenko and Yatsenyuk share pro-Western sentiments and have campaigned on reform agendas aimed at pulling Ukraine back from the brink of economic ruin. The parties are expected to join forces with other reform-oriented groups to form a broad pro-European coalition. Talking to supporters at his party headquarters, a visibly ebullient Poroshenko said coalition talks will start Monday and will last no longer than 10 days. Almost three million people were unable to vote in eastern regions still gripped with unrest as government troops continue to wage almost daily battle against pro-Russian separatists.
Brazil’s Rousseff narrowly wins 2nd term RIO DE JANEIRO — Left-leaning President Dilma Rousseff was re-elected Sunday in the tightest race Brazil has seen since its return to democracy three decades ago, giving the juggernaut Workers’ Party its fourthstraight presidential victory and the chance to extend its social transformation of the globe’s fifth-largest country. Rousseff took 51.6 percent of the votes and center-right challenger Aecio Neves had 48.4 percent, with almost all ballots counted. The result reflected a nation deeply divided after what many called the most acrimonious campaign since the return to democracy, with charges of corruption, nepotism and ample personal barbs thrown by both sides.

CAMARILLO, Calif. — A national survey of gas prices reports that the average cost of U.S. regular grade gas dropped 18 cents per gallon in the last two weeks. Industry analyst Trilby Lundberg said Sunday that the average for regular grade gas is $3.08 per gallon, while midgrade averages $3.31 and premium $3.47. Retail diesel averages $3.67. Lundberg said the price has dropped 65 cents since its peak in May and is 29 cents below what it was last year. She said the drop has been driven by a decrease in the price of crude oil. She forecasts minimal further cuts if prices remain stable. In the Lower 48 states, San Francisco had the highest average price at $3.45 per gallon, while Memphis, Tenn., had the lowest average at $2.73.

the movement a month after protesters occupied major streets to demand free elections. Student leaders and organizers of Occupy Central With Love and Peace, the group that laid the groundwork for a civil disobedience campaign for democracy, had urged people to vote at protest sites Sunday and Monday as a way of registering their support for student negotiators seeking political concessions from the government. The referendum boiled down to two simple questions: Did voters endorse demanding that the Hong Kong government press Beijing to make democratic concessions on election rules, and did they agree that the changes should apply to city Legislative Council elections in 2016 and the race for chief executive in 2017? But hours before the balloting was due to start Sunday night, organizers announced it was off and apologized.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie defended the policies, and he was joined by the governor of Florida, who announced similar measures. The conflicting interests of federal and state officials highlight a conundrum for the United States as it takes a leading role in fighting the contagion of Ebola in West Africa while also trying to calm rising anxieties about the potential spread of the disease at home. Cuomo insisted the state would help alleviate any burdens posed by the home-based 21-day quarantine for health care workers returning from West Africa. If a person loses pay because of workdays missed, the governor said, he or she will be compensated and state officials will talk to employers if necessary. If a person arrives with no symptoms and had no direct contact with Ebola patients, there will be no home confinement. “My personal preference is to err on the side of caution,”
Cuomo said, saying he and de Blasio will urge New York medical experts to encourage hospital staff to volunteer in Ebola efforts in West Africa. “I understand that some people believe the 21-day home quarantine is a burden. I would ask for their cooperation and understanding and remember what we are trying to balance.” The Obama administration said Sunday that it had expressed concerns to Cuomo and Christie about the “unintended consequences” of the quarantines and how they could deter volunteers from deploying to West Africa, where the spread of Ebola continues to rage. “We have let the governors of New York, New Jersey and other states know that we have concerns with the unintended consequences … policies not grounded in science may have on efforts to combat Ebola at its source in West Africa,” said a senior administration official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to comment on the private discussions.
NATO hands over bases to Afghan military Two major bases, an airstrip now in Afghanistan’s control By Tim Craig The Washington Post
CAMP LEATHERNECK, Afghanistan — The NATO coalition ended its formal mission in resistive and dangerous Helmand province Sunday, handing over two major bases and an airstrip to the Afghan military as U.S. Marines and British forces prepare to withdraw. The transfer of Camp Leatherneck and Camp Bastion, the hub for coalition forces in southwestern Afghanistan, is the most dramatic signal to date that the 13-year-old war is drawing to a close. For now, British forces and U.S. Marines will continue to secure the perimeter of the adjoining bases while they await orders to withdraw completely. When they do, it will essentially mark the conclusion of the war in Afghanistan for the Marines and British
forces, officials in both countries said. “This is truly a historic day,” said U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Joseph Anderson, commander of the International Security Assistance Force Joint Command. “Years of continuous combat, countless hours of sunbaked patrols and numerous casualties — this day marks the end of the [coalition] mission here in southwest.” British Defense Secretary Michael Fallon acknowledged that “mistakes were made” in Afghanistan by politicians and generals, comments that will add to the long-running debate in Britain about whether the mission was worth it. “Mistakes were made militarily, mistakes were made by the politicians at the time, and this goes back 10, 13 years, some time now,” Fallon told the BBC on Sunday. “But let’s don’t ignore what has been achieved.” Fallon said the majority of British troops would be home by Christmas. Although about 34,000 coalition troops remain in Afghanistan, President Barack Obama has pledged to cut that number in
half by January. Under a security agreement that Afghan President Ashraf Ghani recently signed with the United States, Obama plans to keep 9,800 troops in Afghanistan next year. About 3,000 troops from other nations are also expected to remain in Afghanistan to help train and support the Afghan army and police force. Sunday’s ceremony means Afghan security forces now have full access to a sprawling military complex that includes more than 6,500 acres of desert land. The handover includes the transfer of at least $230 million in coalition assets to the Afghan army — mostly dozens of miles of concrete roads as well as hundreds of buildings, generators and air conditioners — and sets the stage for one of the U.S. military’s largest overseas base closures since the end of the Iraq war, coalition officials said. Since the fall of the Taliban in 2001, some of the bloodiest battles of the Afghan war have occurred in Helmand. About 400 British soldiers have been killed there, as well as more than 350 U.S. Marines.

Activists say Kobani death toll passes 800 By Elena Becatoros and Bassem Mroue The Associated Press
MURSITPINAR, Turkey — A Syrian activist group said Sunday that the death toll in 40 days of fighting in and around the northern Syrian border town of Kobani has reached 815, as Kurdish fighters battled Muslim militants for a hill west of the town. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the death toll includes 21 Kurdish civilians and 302 fighters with the main Kurdish force known as the Peoples Protection Units, or YPG. It said 481 fighters with the Islamic State group have been killed since the battles began. Islamic State fighters launched a wide offensive on Kobani in mid-September capturing dozens of Kurdish villages and entering parts of the town. The attack has displaced more than 200,000 people who crossed for safety in Turkey.
On Saturday, the Islamic State group launched an attack on a Kurdish-held neighborhood in Kobani without succeeding in advancing, the Observatory said. It added that seven Islamic State fighters were killed as well as several YPG fighters. An Associated Press reporter on the Turkish side of the border said occasional mortar fire could be heard in the center and west of the town as well as occasional gunfire. The U.S. Central Command said in a statement that five airstrikes near Kobani destroyed seven Islamic State vehicles and an Islamic State building. It said the five airstrikes were conducted. Last week, the U.S. Central Command said that its forces conducted more than 135 airstrikes against the militants in and around Kobani, killing hundreds of Islamic State fighters. Idriss Nassan, a Kurdish official from Kobani, said the fighting concentrated Sunday on the Izaa hill west, of the town. That area is close to the strategic Tel Shair hill. Kurdish fighters recently regained control of the Tel Shair hill.

entire library in multiple directions, while remaining on the relative safety of the fraction of texts that encode the same life-bestowing protein: hemoglobin or anti-freeze proteins, for example. And that’s a good thing because an evolving population otherwise would be confined to a single volume or to a tiny region of the vast library, or be forced to make an exploratory, blind journey that is fraught with deadly missteps. With such a network (which we call a genotype network), a population can explore the library far and wide and reach innovative texts — neighboring texts with slightly different but perhaps vastly advantageous meanings — wherever they occur. What’s more, some proteins have larger networks than others, and as my Santa Fe Institute colleague Evandro Ferrada has shown, those proteins have “discovered” more innovative texts in their evolutionary history. That’s how nature accesses so many innovations so rapidly. Large genotype networks provide an advantage so great that we have difficulty computing it because millions, if not trillions, of potential innovations can become accessible through them. While Darwin did not have the technology to explore nature’s libraries, he might be pleased to hear that the thorny problem of innovability has a simple solution — one that makes natural selection work. And although we cannot expect the winter flounder to be grateful, I certainly am, for without them, neither one of us would have crawled out of the primordial soup.
New Mexico also scored low in energy efficiency for transportation, earning only one of nine points. Rep. Jim Trujillo, D-Santa Fe, will introduce legislation in the upcoming legislative session to provide a tax credit to people who buy or lease electric vehicles and for companies that install solar recharging stations. If the bill is approved, it would boost the state’s transportation score, Fieblekorn said. Arizona was ranked 15th and Colorado placed 13th on the energy-efficiency scorecard. Wyoming, which is among the top oil and gas producers in the nation, came in dead last for energy-efficiency efforts. The most energy-efficient state was Massachusetts, followed by California.

Las Vegas, N.M., definitely isn’t a GOP stronghold in the state. But Republican Gov. Susana Martinez seemed to make herself at home during a recent public appearance on the Northern New Mexico town’s plaza. It wasn’t a campaign stop — officially, anyway. Martinez was in town to announce $590,000 in co-operative marketing grants to communities and nonprofits involved in the state Tourism Department’s “New Mexico True” promotion. On hand for the event was the Las Vegas mayor, Alfonso Ortiz, and a small crowd of people, many of whom appeared to be city employees. Ortiz, a Democrat who has appeared in Martinez campaign ads praising the governor, repeatedly has said he hasn’t actually endorsed Martinez. But, when introducing the governor that day, he said he hopes she continues serving in her

Like a Kennedy or a Roosevelt, Gary King might have been expected to enter politics. His late father, Bruce King served 12 years as governor of New Mexico, longer than anyone. Before winning his first term as governor in 1970, Bruce King was speaker of the state House of Representatives. So when a young Gary King tagged along to watch his father work, he often went to the state Capitol. Gary King, now 60 and the Democratic nominee for governor, regularly mentions his dad in speeches. Yet King, who has a doctorate in organic chemistry from the University of Colorado, says his first ambition was to be a scientist, not to follow his father into politics. “This was probably influenced by watching Doctor George Fischbeck on educational TV,” King said.
Greg Pluemer, co-owner of Albuquerque-based Accurate Machine & Tool Co., credits the governor’s economic development incentives for his decision to expand in New Mexico rather than building a plant in Texas. CLYDE MUELLER/THE NEW MEXICAN
EDITOR’S NOTE
BY BRUCE KRASNOW THE NEW MEXICAN
In previewing the governor’s race this election, The New Mexican is doing something a little different. Instead of the usual political profiles, we are publishing brief biographical sketches of each of the two candidates, followed by a series of stories over the next week examining key issues that will confront not only the state’s chief executive but others entrusted with helping to guide state and national policy over the next four years. Today, we focus on the state’s struggling economy and how the two candidates say they would improve it. Monday, we look at education, followed by the environment, transparency, social issues, and health and welfare.

he numbers are hard to brag about. Since Gov. Susana Martinez assumed office Jan. 1, 2011 — after the recession was officially over — the state has added just 17,400 jobs, one of the slowest growth rates in the country. The high-paying manufacturing sector has shrunk 10 percent, and the state has lost 1,400 construction jobs. As Martinez seeks a second term Nov. 4, Democrats see the economy as her biggest vulnerability. They seized on the recent loss of a new Tesla plant as evidence of the governor’s failure to bring jobs to the state. But even with a bevy of woeful indicators, Martinez continues to lead in both the polls and in fundraising over Gary King, the attorney general. Her supporters say that while the economy

EL NUEVO MEXICANO Divisiones de clase social CHICAGO a clase social, no la raza, podría ser el factor de discriminación esencial en la vida de mis hijos. Si la tesis de Charles A. Murray en Coming Apart: The State of White America, 1960-2010 — que la gente de posición socioeconómica similar tiende e agruparse, dejando a los menos prósperos solos y sin la influencia estabilizadora de una comunidad — se cumple, el futuro de mis hijos quizás sea determinado por las mujeres con que se casen. Por más deprimente que eso sea, lo es sólo un poco menos que el fenómeno en que podrían verse incluidos: la así llamada “vuelta en U de la tercera generación hispana”; o que el hecho de que vivirán en un país en que el capital social y económico eclipsará a la raza como el mayor obstáculo para la armonía nacional. María Enchautegui forjó la frase de “la vuelta en U” en un estudio realizado en el Urban Institute. Utilizando los datos de la Oficina de Censos sobre la matriculación escolar en toda la Esther vida, encontró un patrón en que Cepeda la primera generación (padres Comentario inmigrantes) y la segunda generación (sus hijos criados en Estados Unidos) avanzaron económicamente y en otros ámbitos. Pero la tercera generación cayó en la escalera socioeconómica. Enchautegui halló este patrón en estudiantes de escuela secundaria y en jóvenes adultos de entre 19 y 22 años, y señaló que se extendía más allá de medidas económicas de bienestar a conductas comunitarias positivas, como por ejemplo, votar. Su teoría es que la primera generación está llena de fervor inmigrante, la segunda generación se cría viendo que sus padres trabajan arduamente y alcanzan el sueño americano y la tercera generación se duerme sobre los laureles. Este hecho no es una sorpresa para los miembros de la segunda generación que han luchado para que sus hijos se despeguen del Xbox y de los mensajes de texto. ¿Y la idea de que el matrimonio determinará sus futuros? Bueno, eso también está en peligro, ya que la “tercera generación” no posee ningún beneficio especial y tiene menos lazos culturales que invocar — lo que a menudo se conoce como la Paradoja Hispana. La Paradoja Hispana consiste en que la salud y el bienestar de los hispanos que acaban de llegar son mejores que los de sus homólogos estadounidenses blancos, generalmente más ricos y mejor educados. Esos dos aspectos decaen cuanto más tiempo reside una familia en Estados Unidos — en forma similar a lo que sucede con la naturaleza conservadora de una cultura latinoamericana sumamente religiosa. Un reciente informe del National Research Center on Hispanic Children and Families sobre la estructura familiar entre los hispanos de bajos ingresos en Estados Unidos ilustra este triste fenómeno. Señala que en estas décadas pasadas, en familias de todas las razas ha habido menos parejas que se casaran, y más que conviven y tienen hijos sin estar casados. “Las mujeres hispanas nacidas en el extranjero, de bajos ingresos, tienen más probabilidades que las nacidas en Estados Unidos, de estar casadas en el momento del nacimiento de su primer hijo y de seguir aún casadas,” indica el informe. “A la inversa, las mujeres hispanas nacidas en Estados Unidos tienen más probabilidades de tener su primer hijo fuera de toda unión que las nacidas en el extranjero.” Pongamos esto en un contexto en que los que se casan y permanecen casados tienden a ser ricos — y la realidad de que alrededor del 25 por ciento de todos los hispanos viven en la pobreza, según el Pew Research Center’s Hispanic Trends Project — y el futuro de las familias hispanas intactas, de tercera generación e ingresos medios, parece comprometido. Los que ya están fuera del ámbito de los bajos ingresos podrían considerar importante encontrar el amor sólo dentro de su clase socioeconómica. Pero es difícil imaginar a mis hijos — o a cualquiera que no tenga ya la mentalidad de mantener sus privilegios establecidos — realizando un cálculo tan frío. Un estudio de economistas de la Universidad de Harvard y la Universidad de California en Berkeley, expresa que nuestros temores de una movilidad socioeconómica congelada en este país son exagerados y que, sobre la base de un análisis de 40 millones de declaraciones de impuestos de individuos nacidos entre 1971 y 1993, Estados Unidos quizás no sea una sociedad menos móvil de lo que era hace cuatro décadas. Pero tal como expresa la ensayista Eula Biss en su libro Notes from No Man’s Land, nuestra sociedad tiene la creencia de que los prósperos poseen una blancura que hasta el color de la piel no puede otorgar, mientras los pobres no pueden trascender la raza. “La piel blanca es la distinción a la que muchos de nosotros nos aferramos cuando no tenemos nada más,” escribe Biss. “Pero los blancos pobres, que en una época fueron el primer objetivo del movimiento de la eugenesia — esterilizados para que no condenaran a sus hijos a la pobreza e ignorancia — siempre han tenido más en común con los negros pobres que con cualquier otro.” Espero estar equivocada. Pero en este momento, parece que en lugar de trascender simplemente la raza, nuestra población futura va en vías de cambiar un prejuicio por otro.

U El fotógrafo Bart Smith, se muestra en la Plaza con uno de sus libros, America’s Great Hiking Trails, después de caminar las 900 millas del Santa Fe Trail el martes. Comenzó su caminata el 19 de agosto en Franklin, Mo. JANE PHILLIPS/THE NEW MEXICAN

P
or cuenta propia, Bart Smith cree que ha recorrido 25,000 millas de los senderos y caminatas de América. Su actividad es solitario y él dice así que le
gusta. “Creo que tengo el mundo para mí solo,” comenta. El residente de Lakewook, Ore., terminó su caminata del Santa Fe Trail desde Franklin, Mo. — donde comenzaba el sendero originalmente antes de que lo cambiaran a Independence, Mo. — a Santa Fe. William Becknell fue el primero en caminar el sendero en el otoño de 1821 junto con otros cinco hombres mientras exploraban una nueva ruta comercial entre Missouri y el Oeste. Le tomó al grupo dos meses y medio completar la ruta. El Santa Fe Trail fue de uso popular hasta los 1880s. Smith, fotógrafo, ha documentado visualmente sus travesías desde que inicio su primer caminata importante, las 2,700 millas del Pacific Crest Trail de California, Oregon y Washington en 1992. Fue entonces, comenta, que pensó en combinar sus dos grandes pasiones — el excursionismo y la fotografía — en un libro ilustrado titulado, Along the Pacific Crest Trail, publicado tiempo después con texto de Karen Berger. Desde entonces, ha caminado por 11 senderos panorámicos recorriendo 18,000 millas. Actualmente, está trabajando en su ruta histórica nacional número 19. “Está como una bola de nieve,” comentó el jueves durante una entrevista con The New Mexican. “Está saliéndose de control. Estoy en caída libre.” Camina un promedio de 20 millas por día. Su vestimenta consiste en una gorra de lana, un par de pantalones ligeros con varias bolsas, camisetas de manga corta de colores vivos y un chaleco de seguridad fluorescente. También usa botas de piel al tobillo para caminar, que generalmente se desgastan al llegar a 3,000 millas.
En ocasiones duerme acampando 10 días seguidos, como lo hizo en el Santa Fe Trail. Pero también se hospeda en moteles y casas de conocidos de vez en cuando, lo cual le permite lavar su ropa, usar la computadora y bañarse. Rara vez se toma un día libre: “Tienes que estar siempre en camino. Siempre estás bajo presión. Tienes que caminar al siguiente día. Eso era lo que hacían los pioneros.” Seguido caminaba fuera del camino para encontrar los remanentes del sendero. Cerca de 20 millas al este de Clayton, caminó algunas millas fuera del sendero para encontrarse con praderas con surcos hechos por carretas. “Puede hacer un esfuerzo y llegar hasta Clayton y ver un partido [en Seattle] de los Halcones Marinos, pero seguí mis prioridades”, comentó. Fue ahí que capturó, en video, un atardecer espectacular desvaneciéndose mientras salía la luna, proyectando una luz impresionante en el escenario. Eso hizo que el desvío valiera la pena. Smith, que cumplió 55 en junio, es un hombre rubio con rostro y brazos rojos por el sol, lo que hace que resalte lo blanco alrededor de sus ojos. “Las gafas de sol son indispensables,” dice. El sábado, Smith comenzará su marcha sobre El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro desde Ohkay Owingey a El Paso. El Camino Real será su sexto sendero histórico en completar. Luego regresará a casa con su esposa, Bridgie, para descansar por el invierno y comenzar otro camino histórico a principios de la primavera. Seguirá caminando, al menos hasta el 2018 — el 50 aniversario de la adopción de la Ley del Sistema de Senderos Nacionales de octubre 1968. Es entonces que espera montar una exhibición fotográfica mostrando las imágenes de sus viajes. “No quiero sólo acumular millas,” comenta. “Deseo promover los senderos. Mucha gente conoce el sistema de los parques nacionales, pero no todos conocen las rutas nacionales.” Traducción de Patricia De Dios para The New Mexican.

na noche Grampo Caralampio estaba watchando TV. Canutito estaba lying next to him en el couch con su cabeza on grampo’s lap. During a commercial Canutito turned to grampo y le preguntó: “Grampo, did you have un grampo también?” “Pos, naturalmente, m’hijo,” grampo replied. “I had el grampo of all grampos.” “¿Por qué is it que you say that?” Canutito asked him, sitting up de repente. “I say that porque mi grampo era un very unusual Larry Torres man,” grampo said. “His name Growing up era Gabriel y él Spanglish era the last of 23 children.” “No way!” Canutito exclamó. “Did your grampo really have 22 brothers and sisters?” “Sí señor,” Grampo Caralampio affirmed. “His own father había estado married tres veces. His third wife se llamaba Guillermita. Pero every time que mi Grama Guillermita had a baby, el niño would die within unos pocos días. They would get una fievre y sus temperatures would go up y se morían. El único que hizo survive era mi great Tío Abenicio pero he died too cuando he was only fifteen years old.” “That is muy triste,” Canutito said, snuggling up to grampo. “I wonder por qué tenían such high fevers?” “Probably porque they would get pneumonia o whooping cough o algo ansina,” Grampo Caralampio said. “Cuando era tiempo for my own Grampo Gabriel to be born, mi Great-Grandma Guillermita estaba half out of her mind, probably from having all of those niños. She grabbed al newly born Baby Gabriel y she threw him out en la nieve en el medio de la noche.” “Really?” dijo Canutito todo surprised. “Did she really toss al Baby Gabriel out into the winter snow?” “Sí, m’hijo,” Grampo Caralampio le afirmó. “Gracias a Dios, que una very nice lady happened to be walking cerca de allí and she found al baby en la nieve. She scooped him up and took him para su casa and raised him como one of her own.” “¿Cómo se llamaba the lady, grampo?” Canutito asked him. “Her name was Santa,” grampo replied. “Mi grampo used to refer to her as ‘mi Tía Santa’. He would say que ‘una santa’ had plucked him from certain death en la nieve and given him back su vida.” “Wow!” exclamó Canutito, “Él fue muy lucky que he didn’t die in the snow.” “I think que la nieve actually hizo save his life,” grampo said. I think que por eso mi grampo didn’t die de fievre como his other brothers and sisters.” “Did your grampo live de por aquí?” asked Canutito. “For a little while, sí,” Grampo Caralampio said. “Pero soon he had to go trabajar como un Wyomero.” “What is ‘un Wyomero’, grampo?” Canutito asked him. “That means alguien who used to take care of sheep en Wyoming,” grampo answered. “Él era un good shepherd y cuando he finally came back pa’la casa, he was muy religious. He used to pray en la iglesia todos los días. In fact, he was such a buen hombre que when he died de un ataque de corazón in 1964 el parish priest, que se llamaba el Padre Cuesta, announced in Mass: ‘When I heard que Mano Gabrielito had died yo no sabía if I should arrodillarme y rezar por él o arrodillarme y rezarle a él’.” “So the priest didn’t know whether to get on his knees and pray for him or get on his knees and pray to him? Wow!” el muchachito exclamó todo impressed. “¿Cómo se dice ‘greatgrandfather’ en español?” “It is ‘tatarabuelo’,” Grampo Caralampio said. “I hope que un día I will be un buen hombre así como mi Tatarabuelo Gabriel,” Canutito said lying back down to sleep en el sofás. “Yo no tengo doubts que un día you will,” grampo said, carrying Canutito to bed …

IB prepares students for college — and the world
W
hen Desert Academy began investigating the International Baccalaureate (IB) eight years ago, I was charged with doing the research. I was a skeptic. After eight months of visiting IB schools and discussing the program with administrators, teachers and students, I realized that an IB education is a gift of incalculable value. What makes the IB unique? Its curriculum is based on the best educational practices and the latest research in learning and education throughout the world. Its teachers attain the highest level of professionalism, attending national workshops to keep current in their disciplines. Its programs divide the grade-school experience into three parts — the PYP (Primary Years Program for pre-K to fifth grades), the MYP (Middle Years Program for sixth to 10th) and the DP (Diploma Program for juniors and seniors). In New Mexico, only Desert Academy is authorized to offer both the MYP and the DP. Unique to IB is a Theory of Knowledge course, in which Diploma Program students examine how knowledge is acquired. Unifying all subject areas, this class fosters strong inquiry and critical thinking skills. Additionally, all IB students achieve fluency in a second language, reading college level literature in that language by their senior year. Perhaps most importantly, students are assessed in the only way that makes good educational sense — by mastery of the material as opposed to averaging scores on tests and quizzes that may be based on teacher whims or subjective judgments. IB student work is assessed using worldwide, standard-based rubrics by external, international examiners. At
the Dais
Viewpoints on education all times, students are aware of where they stand as they move up the ladder of mastery. After Desert Academy had been offering the IB program for a few years, it became apparent to us that the fruits of an IB education were magnified when college admissions were taken into account. Our students were enjoying unanticipated benefits. Then, consider the IB’s core values and how they support child development. Middle Years Program students learn to develop mental focus and overcome distractions, to delay gratification, to overcome impulsiveness and anger, to prevent and eliminate bullying, to deal with disappointment and change, and to bounce back after adversity and failure. As they develop these skills, their compassion for their peers grows as well. The IB instructional approach extends far beyond the classroom. Its focus is on the whole student, providing that student with a broad, international view of the world and his or her context within it. I have gone from being a skeptic to a believer that IB offers a better educational model. I believe that model will someday be the dominant force in dozens of schools in Albuquerque and Santa Fe — and that those schools will join Desert Academy in giving thousands of students access to a quality, globally based, individualized education. Terry Passalacqua has been an educator and coach in Santa Fe for 30 years and has served as the head of school for Desert Academy for the past seven years.

Raising the dead to breathe life into algebra
Zombie Math BY ROBERT NOTT THE NEW MEXICAN
t’s a tough morning for students in teacher Brian Smith’s algebra class. A horde of zombies is moving toward them and they’ve got to use their math skills to figure out how to coordinate the perfect parabolic arc to launch accurate mortar fire at the walking dead.
I
Because when it comes to being a student of Zombie Math, you just don’t fail the test. You get eaten alive. Smith, who has taught at Santa Fe High School for three years, created the computer program Zombie Math as a way to keep students engaged in algebra. Much has been made of media reports of teens being turned off by math. Smith figured that since most teens enjoy zombie movies and The Walking Dead television series, they might appreciate knowing that math could help them overcome a zombie apocalypse. The program puts students through a series of about 10 different problems per story day that feature algebraic functions involving decimals, percentages and probabilities. If they correctly answer the first problem, they move forward in the story. If they fail, they have to go back, tackle a slightly easier problem [with some hints on how to solve it] and then head back into the zombie fray. The students are the protagonists and find themselves fleeing an unknown city for safe haven in Colorado Springs. Along the way, they find the occasional grocery and gas store open, replete with exploitative business owners, armed looters and zombies. These challenges require a solid math grounding — like how far a half-tank of gas will get you and whether you have enough cash to pay for heavily marked-up goods and ammo.
SmartBoard HALLOWEEN CARNIVAL AT E.J. MARTINEZ E.J. Martinez Elementary School hosts its annual Halloween Carnival, presented by its Parent Teacher Association, from 5 to 8:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 31 — Halloween. The event includes a haunted house sponsored by the school’s sixth-graders, concessions offered by the school’s cheerleaders and more than 10 carnival booths with activities for all ages, including sugarcookie decorating, photo booths, cake walks and more. Booth prices range from 50 cents to $2. The event is open to the public. The school is located at 401 W. San Mateo Road. Contact Suzanne Pearlman, PTA chairwoman, at 577-5971 for more information. ACEQUIA MADRE ART AUCTION Acequia Madre Elementary School celebrates its 20th anniversary art auction from 5 to 9 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 1, at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center. The silent and live auction will include the opportunity to bid on a trip to Costa Rica, a stay at Buffalo Thunder Resort & Casino, a three-day stay in a New Orleans condo, fine art and jewelry, restaurant and entertainment gift certificates and gift baskets. Music by a DJ and catered food will be available, and there will be a cash bar. Admission is $15 and includes appetizers and free child care.

Adam Apodaca, a ninth-grader who was working his way through the program one recent morning, said despite the sometimes number-heavy text, Zombie Math could work as a catalyst to get kids to pay attention to math. He was busy figuring out how to convert electrical watts to volts so he could then process how much power is required to run house lights, a searchlight and an electrical fence to keep the zombies at bay. “Every day is survival,” he said of the Zombie Math program. After a moment, he acknowledged that algebra class is a lot like that, too. Smith, who said he is a big fan of science fiction and fantasy, said he thought Zombie Math “would be more fun for them than, ‘Jodi and her friends went to the movie. They have $35 between them and need five tickets at $5 each. How much money will be left over for popcorn?’ I wanted to spice it up a little bit.” He then asked his roughly 25 students how many of them enjoyed the popcorn question from last year’s quiz. No one raised a hand. Zombie Math, he said, falls into line with the new Common Core standards in that it requires students to prove they understand why they are adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing and conducting other mathematical equations. The problems require not just an answer but an explanation of how kids got there.

FREE WRITING WORKSHOP FOR TEENS AND ADULTS Author, columnist and radioshow host James McGrath Morris hosts two free writing workshops — one for teens and another for adults — called “How To Tell a True Story” at both the main and south-side locations of the public library. McGrath Morris wrote Pulitzer: A Life in Politics, Print and Power, among other works. Among the topics are how to shape a story, where to begin and end a story, how to create scenes and how to incorporate research into your
“If you get to the end of this story then you’ve proved to me that you can master algebra,” Smith said. Students Jonah Baca and Rudy Flores helped each other out to get through the first day of the zombie plague pretty quickly. “I like how it’s not just problems on paper and boring,” Baca said. “I like the way it is playing out. It gives a more realistic version of how you would have to find things out in order to stay alive.” Baca and Flores were pleased to have figured out how to use their minimal cash funds in the game to buy about 140 rounds of ammunition. That stuff comes in handy when blasting away at zombies. Some of the kids complained that the story has no visuals. Smith said he’s working on it and that he can’t just lift copyrighted images off other websites to illustrate the story. Zombie Math is a trilogy, and Smith is still working on finishing the story ahead of his students — and the zombies. “We’ll see how it goes,” he said. “It’s still an experiment.” Ideally, he said, the program will take off nationwide so teachers can turn students on to a sometimes dead subject by having dead characters chase them.

Compound in cocoa aids brain health Study: Chocolate can reverse age-related memory loss By Fredrick Kunkle The Washington Post
In case anyone needed another reason to love chocolate, a new study suggests that a natural compound found in cocoa, tea and some vegetables can reverse age-related memory loss. The findings suggest that the compound increases connectivity and, subsequently, blood flow in a region of the brain critical to memory, the researchers said. The study — published online Sunday in Nature Neuroscience and partly financed by a chocolate company — found that flavanols reverse mild memory loss in older adults. Using brain scans and memory tests, the latest study built on previous work showing that flavanols extracted from cocoa beans had improved neuronal connections in mice’s dentate gyrus, a part of the brain involved in memory formation. But hold that chocolate bar. The researchers also warn that the compound found in cocoa exists only in minuscule amounts in
the average chocolate bar compared with the amount used in the study, so gorging on chocolate in the name of health and improving one’s memory could backfire. “It would make a lot of people happy, but it would also make them unhealthy,” Scott Small, a professor of neurology and director of the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center at the Taub Institute at Columbia University Medical Center, said Friday. Small said that even more important, the new study offers the first direct evidence that memory deteriorates with age because of changes in the dentate gyrus, a region of the hippocampus. Previous studies had shown a link between changes in this region of the brain and normal, age-related memory loss, but the Columbia University study asserts a causal link. “It more firmly establishes that this is the anatomical source of age-related memory loss,” Small, the study’s senior author, said. He said the study also offered yet more evidence that diet and healthy lifestyles that increase blood flow to the brain can slow or reverse age-related cognitive decline. The study involved 37 healthy subjects who ranged in age from 50 to 69. On a random basis, they were given either a high-flavanol
diet, consuming 900 milligrams a day, or a low flavanol diet, consuming 10 mg per day. Brain scans, which measure blood volume in the dentate gyrus, and memory tests were used to evaluate the effect of the diet. Small said the typical candy bar contains about 40 mg of flavanols. Researchers said that if a person had the memory of a typical 60-year-old at the beginning of the study, after three months, on average, that person’s memory would function more like a 30- or 40-year-old’s. The researchers also cautioned that more work is needed because of the study’s small sample size. The compounds appear to enhance connectivity and metabolic activity in the dentate gyrus. Aging appears to reduce the synapses, or connections, between neurons in that part of the brain. That decline, however, is not related to severe memory loss and cell death in Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias, Small said. Most cocoa-processing methods in use today remove many of the flavanols found in cocoa. But the chocolate maker Mars produced a cocoa flavanol test drink specifically designed for the research, which the company also subsidized.
Screen for colon cancer at home By Marilynn Marchione The Associated Press
tarting Monday, millions of people who have avoided colon cancer screening can get a new home test that’s noninvasive and doesn’t require the icky preparation most other methods do. The test is the first to look for cancer-related DNA in stool. But deciding whether to get it is a more complex choice than ads for “the breakthrough test … that’s as easy as going to the bathroom” make it seem. On one hand, the test could greatly boost screening for a deadly disease that too few people get checked for now. On the other hand, it could lure people away from colonoscopies and other tests that, unlike the new one, have been shown to save lives. It might even do both. “It looks promising,” but its impact on cancer risk and survival isn’t known, said Dr. Barnett Kramer, a National Cancer Institute screening expert. David Smith, 67, a retired teacher from Northfield, Minn., shows the test’s potential. He has never been screened for colon cancer and his doctor ran through the options, including a barium enema or a scope exam. “He pulled out one of those really colorful brochures they have for all those procedures,” Smith said, but he had suffered an infection from a prostate biopsy years ago and didn’t want another invasive test. When the doctor mentioned the new DNA test, “I said, well, sign me up.” The test was approved by the Food and Drug Administration last month and will be offered by prescription at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, where it was developed, and soon nationwide. It’s called Cologuard and is sold by Exact Sciences Corp. of Madison, Wis. Mayo Clinic and one of its doctors get royalties from the test. Here are some things to know about it: How it works: Many current stool tests look for blood that could suggest a tumor. Cologuard does this plus detects DNA that could be a sign of cancer or precancerous growths called polyps. People send a stool sample to a lab where it is tested. If the test is positive, the next step is a diagnostic colonoscopy.

A thin tube with a tiny camera is passed through the large intestine and growths can be removed and checked for cancer. When this is done for screening and precancerous polyps are removed, it can prevent cancer, not just detect it. It requires drinking laxatives the day before to clean out the bowel. A sigmoidoscopy is a similar scope exam but only looks at the lower portion of the bowel and does not require full sedation. Advertised but not endorsed: The best measure of a screening test’s worth is whether it lowers the risk of death from a disease, and it’s too soon to know whether Cologuard will. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, which sets widely followed screening advice, has not yet considered it. For healthy adults age 50 to 75 at average risk for colon cancer, the task force backs three methods: annual stool blood tests, a sigmoidoscopy every five years plus stool tests every three years, or a colonoscopy once a decade. Accuracy: Cologuard was not directly tested against colonoscopy for screening but now is being marketed as an alternative.

A large study compared Cologuard to one of the older stool blood tests and found it detected 92 percent of colorectal cancers and 42 percent of advanced precancerous growths compared to 74 percent of cancers and 24 percent of growths for the older test. “Colonoscopy is the gold standard,” but the new test “is pretty darn good” at detecting cancer, though it misses more precancers than previous studies of colonoscopy show, said Dr. Harold ‘Hal’ Sox, a Dartmouth professor who formerly headed the preventive services task force. Cologuard also had a downside — more false alarms. It correctly ruled out colon cancer only 87 percent of the time versus 95 percent for the older test. “One could look at it and say that’s a glass half empty, half full,” Kramer said. It leads 13 percent to have follow-up colonoscopies they really didn’t need — because they didn’t have cancer. Yet if the alternative is to screen everyone with a colonoscopy in the first place, Cologuard could avoid 87 percent of them. Cost: Cologuard costs $599 versus about $25 for current stool blood tests, and “you don’t know whether you need to take it

every year — intervals have not been tested,” Kramer said. If you have the DNA test every three years, it would be $1,800 — about the cost of a colonoscopy, which is good for 10 years unless polyps are found, he said. Medicare covers the new test but private insurers aren’t covering it yet. Bottom line: Many cancer experts say the best screening test is the one that people are willing to get. Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States and the fourth worldwide. More than 143,000 new cases and 52,000 deaths from the disease are expected this year in the U.S. alone. Only about 60 percent of people recommended to get screened do so now. Dr. Kenneth Lin, a Georgetown University family physician and former staff doctor for the preventive services task force, said, “You’d rather have more options than not, but I don’t think there’s enough data to declare this test superior to any other test” because of the false positives and lack of proof that it will save lives, Lin said. “It definitely has some promise.”
Supermassive black holes, cosmic rays to be observed in Mexico
T
he former Milagro observatory at Fenton Lake in the Jemez Mountains of New Mexico has been reborn in southern Mexico. Milagro specialized in cosmic and gamma ray astronomy at Los Alamos National Laboratory from 2000 to 2008, recording over 200 billion cosmic ray collisions with the earth’s atmosphere and pinpointing a pair of distinctive sources in our galaxy, among other notable achievements. Milagro’s successor, the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Gamma-Ray Observatory, recently began operations from a new, advantageous perch on a slope between the volcanoes Sierra Negra and Pico de Orizaba. Pico de Orizaba is Mexico’s tallest Roger mountain, known to the Aztecs as Snodgrass Citlaltépetl, or “Star Mountain.” Science Matters “The HAWC observatory will search for signals from dark matter and to study some of the most extreme objects in the universe, such as supermassive black holes and exploding stars,” said Brenda Dingus, principal investigator and research fellow at LANL, announcing the beginning of operations in late August. “HAWC will be 15 times more sensitive than Milagro was, and it will detect many new sources of high-energy protons.” The next generation array raises the platform from 10,000 to 15,000 feet above sea level. It will also have a more efficient configuration of sensors that can look at every direction in the sky above and identify and time-stamp 30,000 events a second in a coordinated manner that can also indicate the direction of origin. Like Milagro, HAWC will use arrays of Cherenkov photo sensors to record radiation from extraordinary cosmic events, like colliding stars and births of black holes. These phenomena can be uniquely observed by detecting the arrival of highly-energetic particles from our own galaxy and beyond. The energy of ordinary light is said to measure about one electron volt, but Cherenkov telescopes are able to measure particles that are billions and trillions of electron volts. Pavel Cherenkov, a Soviet scientist, shared a Nobel Prize in 1958 for identifying a kind of radiation that highly charged particles emit when they move faster than the speed of light in a local medium like water. At the highest known levels, a cosmic ray can carry the wallop of a baseball thrown by a major league pitcher. According to Gus Sinnis, one of the LANL astrophysicists who helped pioneer the Jemez observatory and will continue to collaborate with the Mexican and American scientific Brenda consortium that has been established Dingus for the project. When a particle with very high energy hits the atmosphere it generates a shower of particles, one particle turns into a cascade of thousands, and they come down in a pancake about one or two yards thick that lasts one or two billionths of a second. “As it sweeps across the array,” said Sinnis, “you measure the arrival time of individual particles and then you can actually point back to where it came from, and that’s how you can do astronomy.” One big area of research for the new observatory will be looking at the high-end of the energy spectrum, trying to find and understand the rarest and most explosive examples that shed light on the how extreme mechanisms combine to accelerate particles at such high velocities, but there are also some lingering questions a little closer to home. “Another thing I’m interested in is the generation of lightning,” said Sinnis. “If you look at how lightning is actually generated, it turns out we don’t actually understand it.” Measurements of electric fields in clouds come up with only about a tenth of the energy needed to create the spark that initiates a lightning event. In recent years, the puzzle about how lightning works has been given new attention and several hypotheses have been suggested, some involving cosmic rays that might be amped up by atmospheric conditions. Others have suggested that a noticeable correlation between solar wind cycles and lightning events may be part of the answer. Sinnis has an idea that involves a special lightning detector that has been designed at the laboratory. “It can image a lightning strike and locate it in time to about a millionth of a second and locate it in space to about a meter,” he said. “If we could set that up at the HAWC site we could actually see if there is a correlation between where the lightning is and where we’ve just seen a cosmic shower.” This may seem like a question that Benjamin Franklin answered about two hundred and sixty years ago when he conducted his famous experiment with a kite and key. Among other things, Franklin demonstrated that electricity could be controlled by knowing the difference between a conductor and an insulator, but he also admitted that there were some theoretical issues about how nature executes her laws that would be “mere speculation” for him. You might say this is one of them, and he’d surely be happy to know it’s on the agenda. Contact Roger Snodgrass at roger.sno@gmail.com

Pot: Tip lead to bust
The discovery of the bodies has baffled residents of the small, quiet neighborhood. Residents on East Ramada Way and nearby roads said they hadn’t seen or heard anything unusual the previous night. Anita Hopkins-Shah, who lives near the road where the car was discovered, said she and her family were hosting a child’s birthday party Saturday. A bouncy house from the event sat right outside the police line. At 4 p.m. Friday, she saw the unfamiliar car where the bodies were found, Hopkins-Shah said, but it didn’t worry her at the time because people often park in the nearby field to drink or smoke marijuana. But they always leave, she said, and they seldom do any harm. She and her boyfriend saw the car again Saturday morning, and that’s when they noticed the blood inside the vehicle. They didn’t get closer. Instead, they
called the sheriff’s office. Hopkins-Shah said a few neighbors checked out the vehicle while waiting for people to arrive, but no one recognized it or its occupants. A photo provided by a resident shows the silver, four-door sedan parked along the dirt road near a tree. Another resident, Carlos Atilano, also said the neighborhood is usually quiet, but he said Saturday night that he had heard a car security alarm wailing all night long. He said he arrived home at midnight Friday, and by 4 a.m. Saturday, the alarm was still screeching. Most residents said they didn’t hear anything between Friday night and Saturday morning when police arrived, and no one knew of any local residents who were missing.

DORIS (BLACKIE) BUDROW DEGROOT
Continued from Page A-1
Doris (Blackie) Budrow DeGroot, 92, passed away peacefully on October 2, 2014 at her home in Santa Fe, New Mexico. She was born on April 26, 1922 to Walter Budrow and Crilla Merchant Budrow in Fowler, Indiana. Born into a family with a strong work ethic, Blackie soon learned in the hard scrabble years of the depression that hard work and dogged effort were the norm. She received a degree in occupational therapy from Ohio State University and began her first career working with cerebral palsy patients. After meeting and marrying Robert C. "Bobby" Schenck she began the first of many home building projects. The two of them converted a 525 sq. ft. maple sugar cabin named "Shaky Shack" into their first home. Blackie had two sons, William C. "Billy" Schenck born in 1947 and John E.B. "Jeb" Schenck in 1950. Aside from her strong work ethic Blackie was an accomplished athlete, playing tennis and golf with an intensely competitive focus. Eventually, she met Jack Nicholas but, wisely chose not to compete on the golf course with him. With her husband Bobby, they went to Friday night high school football games. Saturday’s were spent at the Ohio State football stadium and then a drive to Cleveland on Saturday nights to spend the night with the Otto Graham family, making 16mm movies of all the home game of the Cleveland Browns from 1947-1951. Blackie and Bobby built their second home and moved in 1950. Bobby died just after Christmas 1952 on their way to Florida, leaving Blackie a widow with two young boys. She went back to school at Ohio State and got another degree in education. She began a long and successful career as a teacher. In 1964, her sons introduced her to Robert deGroot, a world class athlete and teacher like herself. With Bob, Blackie began putting her life back together. Now began her third building project. She, Bob and her sons spent 20 summers building a log cabin compound as "in holders" in Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming. They built two houses, three guest cabins and a painting studio, barn and corral. When Blackie and Sage retired from teaching, her yen for adventurous travel continued with trips to Spain and Costa Rica. Bob and Blackie finally decided to spend their winters in Arizona where they built another home. Aside from her career in teaching and building homes Blackie had other compassionate endeavors. She took in a close family friend, a then 14 year old runaway and raised her through high school. She then took on a niece, raised her and put her through nursing school. Blackie was literally career ambitious for everyone she came into contact with. She was passionate about geology, paleontology and anthropology, canoeing and hiking. After nearly 25 years in Grand Teton National Park, Blackie and Sage moved to Santa Fe where they spent their remaining years. Still involved in building houses well into her 80s, Blackie discussed extensively with her son Billy about the design of one final extraordinary home he was building for her in La Cienega. She had led a very full life and is greatly missed. Blackie was preceded in death by her beloved husband Bob (Sage) and is survived by her sons, Billy and Jeb, three grandchildren and three great grandchildren, numerous Schenck and Budrow family, nieces and nephews, and the deGroot extended family, as well as several close friends.

Ask for support of carbon tax T
he film The Great Invisible, shown recently at the Center for Contemporary Arts with former Sen. Jeff Bingaman as special guest speaker beforehand, was about the Gulf oil spill by BP’s Deepwater Horizon in 2010. It showed the devastating and lasting effects on the environment, public health and economy of that region. The American taxpayer bears the brunt of accidents like these. Deepwater drilling, halted only briefly, continues to proliferate. It was shocking to learn there are more than 4,000 oil and gas rigs in the Gulf Coast. Another alarming fact from the film — income to the U.S. government from off-shore drilling is second only to the income the U.S. government receives from federal income taxes. No wonder Congress is immobilized when it comes to climate change legislation. Will we ever learn “that wealth is not in bank accounts and that you can’t eat money”? Contact your representatives. Tell them to support a revenue-neutral carbon tax. Chrysa Wikstrom

Debate sheds light The debate between Gov. Susana Martinez and Attorney General Gary King was interesting (“Debate gives rivals chance to question each other,” Oct. 20), pointing up the innate differences between the two. Martinez’s mind is like a broken record, stuck in a redundant, prosecutorial mode down in Las Cruces. She appears stunted, totally lacking in understanding of what civil society is all about. This is her smokescreen, which doesn’t succeed in concealing her weakness. She is unfit to govern.
Gary King on the other hand (Ph.D. in organic chemistry and an LLB) completely saw through this smokescreen and repeatedly corrected Martinez’s shaky misrepresentations. Like Dianna Duran, Martinez’s whole approach is to unsuccessfully search for a phantom “gotcha!” that isn’t there, wasting four years accomplishing nothing. New Mexican Gary King will make a good, civil governor who has no hateful ax to grind with any of us, including “that liberal California” film business. Bill Lyne

COMMENTARY: DAVID ARMOR
Pre-K benefits hard to pin down I n political campaigns around the country, at least one proposal enjoys bipartisan support: expanding early childhood education. In gubernatorial races in Florida, Texas, Alabama, Michigan and Georgia, both the Democratic and Republican candidates support expanding government provision of “high-quality” pre-kindergarten education. And why wouldn’t they? A raft of recent studies claims major benefits for children who start school early. The problem is, most of the studies that show benefits have major research design flaws, one of which is an inability to demonstrate long-term gains. And the few top-quality studies out there reveal few, if any, lasting benefits. The best studies randomly assign children to “pre-kindergarten” (treatment) and “no pre-K” (control) groups, and then follow them for several years to see if the pre-K children show greater achievement gains than children without pre-K. This is the “gold standard” in education research and the same type of study used for testing prescription drugs. A national study of the federal Head Start program followed these rigorous protocols and found no lasting results. Children in Head Start show immediate (although modest) gains during preschool, but during kindergarten and first grade, the differences disappear because children without preschool quickly catch up. This is called the “fade-out” problem. A recent randomized study for the high-quality Tennessee program showed the same result. Though these results are well-known among pre-K evaluators, they often explain them away, arguing that “fade out” is caused by low quality pre-K instruction. They point to state-developed programs in Oklahoma, New Jersey, Georgia and Boston, all of which showed much larger gains during the preschool
year than Head Start programs. The “high-quality” descriptor also occurs because these state programs embed pre-K in the regular school system with certified teachers, all of whom have at least a bachelor’s degree. (The federal Head Start programs does not require BAs.) The problem is that all of these state pre-K studies relied upon a special nonrandom design that compares kindergarten children who finished pre-K the previous year (the treatment group) to children who are just starting preschool (the control group). The design (called “regression continuity design” or RDD for short) requires that the school system impose a strict age cutoff so that the treatment group is one year older, and it relies on statistical methods to adjust for the age difference between the two groups of children. Testing is done at the beginning of the school year. Any difference between the two groups after adjusting for the age difference is assumed to be the result of pre-K. This non-random study design has two major flaws that impair the tests’ reliability and prevent definitive conclusions. First and foremost, because both the treatment and control groups have had preschool, these studies can’t examine the critical “fade-out” problem. Randomized studies can follow the pre-K and no-pre-K children into grade school, where they can see whether the pre-K gains are lasting or not. So far, no randomized study has found lasting effects, and the non-random state studies provide no clarification. The second flaw is a problem called “attrition,” meaning children who drop out of the treatment group. The control group students who are just starting pre-K can’t have attrition by definition. According to Department of Education standards for RDD designs, valid inferences require that attrition be

documented and results adjusted. The reason is that program dropouts are more likely to be disadvantaged children with lower skills and more social problems, and their test scores are inevitably lower than non-dropouts. Two additional “high quality” programs have garnered much attention, and both used randomized designs. One is the Perry Preschool cost-benefit evaluation by Nobel economist James Heckman, which demonstrated significant success, and the other is the Abecedarian Project, which demonstrated significant long-term IQ gains. There are several problems relying on these studies to support expanding universal preschool. Study participants were all disadvantaged African American children; the programs were far more intensive — and costly — than the type of pre-K in contemporary state programs; and the programs educated two small groups of children in two communities more than 40 years ago. The reality is that the research on state preschool programs does not yet support effectiveness for the type of universal preschool programs being promoted today. It certainly does not support expensive government expansions of preschool education as currently envisioned, particularly for middle-class children with no demonstrable need for a “head start.” We need much more high-quality randomized research studies showing large and long-term benefits, at reasonable costs, before any expansion of pre-K can be justified. David Armor is professor emeritus of public policy at George Mason University, and author of the new Cato Institute report “The Evidence on Universal Preschool: Are Benefits Worth the Cost?” He wrote this commentary for The Washington Post.
anta Fe’s favorite public spectacle — the Burning of Zozobra — was a smash success in 2014. But its organizer, Ray Sandoval, is one of those guys. He’s seldom satisfied and wants an even better event in 2015, with the goodwill from Zozobra continuing in the hours after the burning. To get feedback on the event, Sandoval and the Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe have surveyed Zozobra-goers and last week held a meeting to share what they learned. Sandoval said organizers have discovered that folks who traveled to see Zozobra enjoyed the spectacle but were disappointed that Santa Fe resembled a “ghost town” — their words — once the burning was over. This year, if you recall, Zozobra moved back to Friday night — on Labor Day weekend, separate from Fiesta de Santa Fe — but downtown business people remained afraid the crowds might run wild on a Friday. Rather than see the added bodies downtown as potential revenue sources, fear (perhaps justifiable considering the past) led many restaurants and businesses to shut down early. At La Fonda on the Plaza, people needed to show a room key to get past a security guard just to buy a drink at the bar. For Sandoval, who believes Zozobra can attract out-oftown visitors who will stay in hotels and spend money in restaurants and shops, there is opportunity to be realized. He wants bigger crowds to keep the ticket prices down — the adults among the 40,000 who attended in 2014 paid $10, which will cover the cost of putting on Zozobra and also pay for the good works the Kiwanis Club does for youth in the community. Should the crowds shrink, the club won’t be able to cover expenses and keep prices low. However, many people surveyed were disappointed with the evening, at least once Zozobra had been reduced to embers. They wanted something of a nightlife — dining, live music or dancing. And Santa Fe, as we all know, tends to be quiet after 9 p.m., especially on a night when businesses are worried about rowdy revelers. But there’s good news in the surveys, too. Now that organizers know what might be missing, there is nothing stopping Santa Fe from extending the evening. Late-night shows at downtown bars or, if we’re thinking big, even something at the Lensic. Pop-up restaurants with special meals. Hotels that want to keep crowds down still could offer special bar menus to overnight guests. Someday, should Zozobra ever return to Fiesta weekend, perhaps there could even be dancing in the streets again. As any Santa Fean of a certain age can testify, something about the combination of burning Zozobra and street dancing couldn’t be beat. In the meantime, Sandoval and members of the Kiwanis Club have shown they can run a larger event smoothly — it was the safest Zozobra on record. Neighbors and businesses complimented the event, and many business owners say they will do more to catch the crowds in 2015. Zozobra remains a vital part of Santa Fe, and we’d bet that with a few tweaks, it will be even better in 2015.
The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: October 27, 1914: Mexico City — A report reached here that ex-President Porfirio Diaz had died at Bordeaux, France. The newspapers were unable to confirm it. October 27, 1964: Albuquerque — Some of the tightest security measures in the history of New Mexico were taken as Albuquerque prepared for the arrival late tonight of President [Lyndon B.] Johnson. The chief executive will spend the night at the Hilton Hotel in Albuquerque, deliver a speech outside Johnson Gymnasium on Wednesday morning, then depart for another speech in California. October 27, 1989: Three men who were critically burned in a mountain plane crash, then walked nearly five miles out of the Pecos Wilderness, are expected to recover from their injuries. Two passengers in the plane, a son and a brother of one of the survivors were killed. The three survivors, all badly burned and otherwise injured, walked to a recreation area, where they hotwired a truck and drove to a medical clinic in Peñasco.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Ronnie Milsap, the blind country-soul singer and pianist, joined bluegrass vocalist Mac Wiseman and the late songwriter Hank Cochran as the newest members of the Country Music Hall of Fame. At a ceremony in Nashville, country artists Vince Gill, Martina McBride and Hunter Hayes honored the inductees Sunday with tribute performances at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. Steeped in Appalachian music but classically trained, Milsap first began playing with Elvis Presley in Memphis before developing into a country singer with 40 No. 1 country hits and six Grammy Awards. Wiseman, born in Crimora, Va., started off playing with bluegrass legends such as the Foggy Mountain Boys and Bill Monroe before becoming a solo artist. One of country’s most successful songwriters, Cochran’s standards include “I Fall To Pieces,” made famous by Patsy Cline, “Make The World Go Away,” recorded by Eddy Arnold, and “The Chair,” performed by George Strait. Cochran, originally from rural Mississippi, died in 2010 at 79 and his widow, Suzi, accepted the medallion on his behalf. The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Hillary Rodham Clinton had just finished telling the crowd that North Carolinian families could count on Sen. Kay Hagan when the chants of Oliver Merino — a 25-year-old whose mother, an undocumented Mexican immigrant, faces deportation — grew louder. He held a sign that read, “Hillary, do you stand with our immigrant families?” and shouted that his mother lives in constant fear of deportation. “I have to say that I understand immigration is an important issue, and we appreciate that,” Clinton said. “We thank you for your advocacy.” President Barack Obama has promised executive action on immigration reform after the midterm elections. But immigration activists have already turned their focus — and their frustration — to his potential successor. The incident at a rally here on Saturday was only the latest time members of a group of young, undocumented immigrants who call themselves Dreamers have aggressively confronted Clinton. Behind the public confrontations is a quieter but concerted effort by a critical bloc of young Latinos to urge others like them not to automatically support Clinton in an increasingly likely 2016 presidential campaign. “If you’re going to pick politics over our families, you should know that you can’t take this constituency for granted,” said Cristina Jimenez, managing director of United We Dream, the largest national network of young undocumented immigrants. The targeting of Clinton comes amid growing disillusionment about Obama’s failure to enact immigration reform and his handling of the arrival of thousands of Central American children on the U.S. border. The four members of the Dream Organizing Network who attended the rally here on Saturday urged Clinton to support executive action to stop deportations. By mobilizing against Clinton two years before the next presidential election, the self-named Dreamers hope to pressure her to commit to immigration reform or risk losing critical Latino votes. Clinton had overwhelming support among Hispanics in the 2008 Democratic primary; in the 16 Super Tuesday contests that year, 63 percent of Latinos voted for Clinton, compared with 35 percent for Obama. But in the past six years, the immigration issue has become a flash point among the 25.2 million Latinos who are eligible to vote in the 2014 midterm elections. “Immigration is not the only issue, but it is the defining issue, and she will need to learn that the old lines and old dynamics no longer apply,” said Frank Sharry, executive director of America’s Voice, a pro-immigration group. Clinton has said she supports the DREAM Act and comprehensive immigration reform. “I think it’s important to provide opportunities for young people, many of them brought here as babies or young children who have imbued the American dream in their genes,” Clinton said at an event in April at the University of Connecticut.
“She strikes a chord within the Latino community,” said Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-Texas, who has already endorsed the super PAC Ready for Hillary. “There is a sense that she cares deeply about the issues confronting the community, and she has spent time nurturing relationships within the Latino community,” Castro added. When asked whether they would vote for Clinton or the Republican nominee for president in 2016, regardless of who that is, 63 percent of Latinos ages 18 to 34 said they would vote for Clinton, according to a poll conducted in September by Bendixen and Amandi International for Fusion, the fledgling network owned by ABC and Univision. But how she handles the immigration issue could impact her popularity, said Matt A. Barreto, co-founder of the polling and research firm Latino Decisions. In June, Clinton told CNN that the Central American children “should be sent back as soon as it can be determined who responsible adults in their families are,” a statement that made some young Latinos question her commitment to their communities. Not long after that, Jorge Ramos of Fusion asked Clinton if she had a “Latino problem.” Clinton replied, “I hope not!” and then said only those children who do not have a legitimate claim for asylum or a family connection in the United States should be sent back. Her initial comments struck some immigration activists as even more hard-lined than the rhetoric out of Obama’s White House. “She was a lawyer who represented children,” said Mony Ruiz-Velasco, a Chicagobased immigration lawyer who referred to Clinton’s work with the Children’s Defense Fund. “The last position we’d think she would take would be curtailing due process for children.” In September, after a campaign rally in Indianola, Iowa, Monica Reyes introduced herself as a Dreamer and asked Clinton about Obama’s delay on immigration reform. Clinton eventually told the young activists, “You know, I think we have to elect more Democrats.” The exchange, posted on YouTube, made some Latinos believe Clinton may take their support for granted. Frustration with Obama, a record-number of deportations over the past six years and stalled immigration reform have made Latinos less devoutly Democrat than they have been in the past, according to recent polls. “I don’t think she had any idea of how that response was perceived by a young Dreamer who is thinking, ‘Um, we’ve elected a lot of Democrats,’ ” Sharry said of Clinton. The activists have also confronted Obama and potential 2016 presidential candidates on the Republican side, including Cuban-American Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida. Cesar Vargas, a co-director of the Dream Action Coalition who along with Reyes yelled out to Clinton in Iowa, said the group would continue to try to get answers about her specific positions. “We are going to make sure we are ready to question Hillary Clinton and not be completely blinded by a candidate’s celebrity,” Vargas said. “Immigrant communities are not ‘Ready for Hillary.’ ”

Blue Griffins, Lady Horsemen get No. 2 seeds By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican
Hersch Wilson is not surprised with where his team got placed in the postseason. The Santa Fe Prep Blue Griffins were given the No. 2 seed in this year’s boys Class A-AAAA state soccer tournament. All the remaining District 2A-AAAA teams will be joining Prep in the state tournament, but No. 8 Monte del Sol, No. 10 St. Michael’s and No. 12 Desert Academy will all have to play in the first round this weekend.
The Blue Griffins, on the other hand, will await the winner of the St. Michael’s-Hatch Valley match in the quarterfinals at the Albuquerque Public Schools Soccer Complex on Nov. 6. This is the first time Prep has had a first-round bye since they got the 4-seed in 2010, the same year they last played in the finals. Wilson was expecting this placement after beating No. 3 Albuquerque Bosque School and then losing to No. 1 Albuquerque Sandia Prep in the final week of the season.
Now Wilson has the task of keeping his players ready to compete with 10 days before the next match, and he said the trick is making sure their minds don’t get overwhelmed. “With teenage boys, there’s a delicate balance between keeping them ready, but not getting them so emotional that they throw up and can’t touch the ball,” He said. “To be able to pass a soccer ball takes a relaxed focus, so you want to make sure that you’re having them play with the perfect balance.” Also sitting out the first round is
NFL
Capital, who received the 3-seed in AAAAA and is awaiting either Chaparral or Lovington in the quarterfinals. The Jaguars ended the regular season on a 10-match win streak in which they did not allow any goals. They also swept 2AAAAA in the process, but head coach Eugene Doyle said his players still have their competitive fire. “They’re not satisfied with just winning district,” he said. “Our overall goal is to win the state tournament, so that’s what we’re working towards, and we’re right where we want to be.”
Five of the six soccer schools in Santa Fe now have a shot at a state championship, and that might not be a coincidence. Although the City Different has not brought back a boys championship trophy since Prep got one in 1982, Wilson says Santa Fe is one of the most competitive soccer communities in the state. “It just points to the amount of soccer we play here and the enthusiasm about soccer that we have in Santa Fe,” Wilson said.

Brown’s 75-yard TD catch beats the Eagles By Bob Baum The Associated Press
GLENDALE, Ariz. — The Arizona Cardinals under coach Bruce Arians do not play it safe. When most teams would have just thrown for Cardinals 24 the necessary yards to get a first Eagles 20 down, the Cardinals went for it all — and got it. Rookie John Brown, a third-round draft pick from little Pittsburg State, gathered in a 75-yard touchdown pass from Carson Palmer with 1:21 to play to give the Cardinals a 24-20 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday in a matchup of two of the NFL’s four remaining one-loss teams. “When it’s time to step up, that’s what you have to do,” Brown said. “They had a safety on me, so when they put him on me, all I had to do was run past him.” The speedy Brown had wowed the Cardinals since he first stepped on the practice field. “I’m not surprised,” Palmer said. “Nothing’s too big for him.” The Cardinals (6-1), off to their best start in 40 years, had a goal-line stand that forced the Eagles (5-2) to settle for a 20-yard field goal that put Philadelphia up 20-17 with 1:56 left. Philadelphia coach Chip Kelly thought about going for the touchdown, but decided to put the game in his defense’s hands. “I thought our defense was playing really, really well,” he said. “I had confidence in them and told them we were kicking the field goal because I had confidence in them.” Then on third-and-5, Palmer — who also had an 80-yard TD pass to Larry Fitzgerald — saw something at the line of scrimmage that led him to give Brown a signal to change his route. The quarterback lofted the ball deep, where the speedy Brown caught it and crossed the goal line just as he was being tackled. Arians called it “a Willie Mays catch.” “We had three guys at 8 yards for first downs, but when there’s a touchdown involved in the play, never pass it up,” he said. “Don’t play scared, play smart.” Safety Nate Allen took the blame. “That one’s on me,” he said.

Bumgarner, Giants beat Royals, take 3-2 Series lead By Ben Walker The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO ith every pitch, Madison Bumgarner etched his place among the World Series greats. The long, tall lefty kept slinging away and put the San Francisco Giants just one win from yet another championship, throwing a four-hitter to beat the Kansas City Royals 5-0 Sunday night for a 3-2 Series edge. Hardly menacing on the mound, Bumgarner was simply untouchable — again. As “MVP! MVP!” chants broke out from each packed corner of AT&T Park, Bumgarner finished off the first
W
World Series shutout in 11 years. “You know what? For some reason, I keep getting really lucky this time of year, so I’ll take it,” Bumgarner said. It must be more than luck. Because by the time the 25-year-old from Hickory, N.C., closed out his second win in a week, he had evoked memories of Bob Gibson, Sandy Koufax, Curt Schilling and the top October aces of all-time. Joined them, and maybe even passed them. Who else has gone 4-0 in four World Series starts with an 0.29 ERA? Throw in only 12 hits in 31 innings, along with 27 strikeouts, and that adds up to the very definition of Big-Game Pitcher. On this evening, he fanned eight without a walk and never was in trouble. There hadn’t been a shutout in the Series since Josh Beckett’s clinching gem for the Florida Marlins in 2003 at Yankee Stadium.
The Giants’ work isn’t done yet. To lock up their third crown in five years, they’ll need to win in Kansas City. “We’re looking forward to getting back to our home crowd, where it’s going to be absolutely wild and crazy,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. Jake Peavy gets the first chance to seal it for San Francisco when he starts Game 6 at Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday night against rookie Yordano Ventura. If the Giants don’t win then, there is always this possibility: Bumgarner out of the bullpen in Game 7. “This guy was right on tonight. He was strong all night,” manager Bruce Bochy said. “You know when this guy is on, it’s fun to watch. I mean, he was hitting his spots, had great stuff.” Ahead by five, Bochy let Bumgarner bat in the

Ballot breakdown: Head-to-head or body of work? By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press
Breaking down the ballots for the AP Top 25 and wrapping up college football’s ninth weekend. YOU MAKE THE CALL Mississippi beat Alabama at home but lost at LSU to a team that had already lost twice. Which team do you rank higher, the Rebels (7-1) or the Crimson Tide (7-1)? Oregon lost with an injury-depleted offensive line at home to Arizona, which then lost at home to Southern California on a last-second missed kick. The Trojans have lost a total of three games, two in the final seconds.
Which team do you rank higher, the Ducks (7-1) or the Wildcats (6-1)? Voters in The Associated Press college football poll have been trying to sort out this stuff for years. The College Football Playoff selection committee now gets to untangle these teams. The 12-member panel’s first top 25 rankings come out Tuesday night. The committee begins deliberating just outside of Dallas on Monday, the first of seven gatherings before the playoff pairings are revealed Dec. 7. Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio, whose team remained No. 8 in the AP Top 25, said he’ll be keeping an eye on the committee’s rankings and that he’s interested to see how the members come to their decisions.

“I think you’ve got to be a bigpicture thinker here,” Dantonio said of about his interest in the process. In the latest AP poll Sunday, Mississippi State and Florida State, the only undefeated teams left in the Big Five conferences, hold the top two spots. The No. 1 Bulldogs received 46 firstplace votes and the second-ranked Seminoles 14. Overall, the voters valued total resume and recent performances over head-to-head matchups. Alabama moved up to No. 3, followed by Auburn, Oregon and Notre Dame. Ole Miss fell to No. 7 after its first loss. “I look at my vote as a snapshot of what I have seen during the season,
but weighing particular importance on the most recent game,” said voter Tim Griffin of the San Antonio Express-News in an email. He had Alabama ahead of Ole Miss and Oregon ahead of Arizona. The Rebels were beaten 10-7 by LSU on Saturday night in Death Valley. LSU fans rushed the field to celebrate beating a top-five team Just a few weeks ago the fieldrushing was going on in Oxford, Mississippi, after the Rebels slipped by Alabama, 23-17. So both Alabama and Ole Miss lost tough close games, though it could be argued the Tide lost to a better team. LSU has already lost at home to

MadBum: Giants one win from title Continued from Page B-1 eighth inning. “Sure I thought about maybe taking him out, but he was throwing too good,” Bochy said. Hunter Pence once again was in the middle of things for Giants. He singled off James Shields in the second and scored on a groundout by Brandon Crawford, who had three RBIs. Later, the enigmatic Pence accidentally threw his bat past the mound while striking out, and appeared to apologize to Shields. Pence added another hit in a three-run eighth, making him 9 for 19 in the five games. Postseason star Pablo Sandoval also singled twice. Juan Perez broke it open with a two-run double off the top of the center-field fence in the
eighth off Wade Davis and scored on a single by Crawford. Since trailing 4-1 in Game 4, the Giants have responded with 15 straight runs. San Francisco won that game, putting aside concern that Bumgarner should’ve been moved up to pitch on short rest. Bumgarner won for the fourth time against one loss in this postseason, and this blanking bookended the fourhit shutout he threw at Pittsburgh in the NL wild-card game. Durable, he’s thrown 47⅔ innings this October, trailing just Schilling’s 48 1-3 in 2001 for the most in a single postseason. Given an early lead, Bumgarner was in control. He surely didn’t need much of a cushion, and looked even better than he did in winning the opener in
Kansas City. And on the rare occasion when the 6-foot-5 Bumgarner made a mistake, failing to cover first base on a grounder to the right side, his defense bailed him out. Toward the late innings, it appeared that only a lightning strike could rescue the Royals, perhaps a home run out of nowhere. Not happening — this was the third straight game without either team hitting a homer, the longest streak in the World Series since 1948 when the Boston Braves and Cleveland began with a three-game drought, STATS said. Bumgarner, nicknamed MadBum, definitely has an impressive whip, along with an imposing WHIP in the World Series. His walks-plus-hits ratio per inning is incredible.

Cardinals OF Taveras dies in car accident SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Oscar Taveras, a 22-year-old slugger who was regarded as one of the majors’ top prospects, died Sunday in a car accident in his native Dominican Republic. Taveras was driving a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro at the time of the crash on a highway between the beaches of Sosua and Cabarete in Puerto Plata, about 215 miles north of the capital of Santo Domingo, said Col. Diego Pesqueira of the Metropolitan Transportation Agency. “He wasn’t carrying documents at the time of the accident, but his body was identified by family members,” Pesqueira said.

the mayor of Sosua that Taveras lost control of his vehicle and went off the road. Taveras made his major league debut this year. He hit .239 with three homers and 22 RBIs in 80 games for the NL Central champions. “I simply can’t believe it,” Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said in a release. “I first met Oscar when he was 16 years old and will forever remember him as a wonderful young man who was a gifted athlete with an infectious love for life who lived every day to the fullest.” Cardinals chairman Bill DeWitt Jr. said the organization was “stunned and deeply saddened” by Taveras’ death. “Oscar was an amazing talent with a bright future who was taken from us well before his time,” DeWitt said. “Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends tonight.” The Associated Press

NFL ROUNDUP
Roethlisberger throws 6 TDs; Steelers top Colts The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — Ben Roethlisberger set franchise records with 522 yards passing and Steelers 51 six touchdowns Colts 34 and the Pittsburgh Steelers raced by the Indianapolis Colts 51-34 on Sunday. Roethlisberger’s yardage total was the fourth highest in NFL history. He became the first player to go over 500 yards passing twice as the Steelers (5-3) won consecutive games for the first time this season. Antonio Brown caught 10 passes for 133 yards and two scores. Heath Miller caught seven passes for 112 yards and the clinching TD with 5:14 remaining. Andrew Luck passed for 400 yards and three touchdowns, but also threw two interceptions. He handed the Steelers a safety when he was called for intentional grounding in the end zone midway through the fourth quarter as the Colts saw their five-game winning streak end spectacularly. BENGALS 27, RAVENS 24 In Cincinnati, Andy Dalton made up for his two secondhalf turnovers by scoring on a 1-yard sneak with 57 seconds left on Sunday, rallying the Cincinnati Bengals to a 27-24 victory over the Baltimore Ravens that tightened the AFC North race. The Bengals (4-2-1) wasted an 11-point lead as Dalton’s fumble and interception helped the Ravens (5-3) pull ahead 24-20 with 3:59 left. That’s when Dalton pulled it out against the NFL’s stingiest defense. He threw a 53-yard pass to Mohamed Sanu on third-and-10 — safety Terrence Brooks got turned around — and took it the final yard on fourth down, completing a 10-play, 80-yard drive. LIONS 22, FALCONS 21 In London, Matt Prater kicked a 48-yard field goal on the last play of the game Sunday, lifting the Lions after trailing by 21 points. Prater capped a second straight late winning drive for the Lions (6-2), who also rallied to beat the Saints last week. It was the first field goal the Lions made from 40-49 yards all season. Matthew Stafford threw for 325 yards and two touchdowns, giving him 120 TDs, breaking the Lions record of 118 held by Bobby Layne.
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger passes against the Indianapolis Colts in the second quarter of Sunday’s game in Pittsburgh. GENE J. PUSKAR/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SEAHAWKS 13, PANTHERS 9 In Charlotte, N.C., Russell Wilson threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Luke Willson with 47 seconds left. It’s the third straight year Wilson has brought the Seahawks (4-3) back from a second-half deficit to beat the Panthers on the road. In the previous two seasons, Wilson threw second-half TD passes to Jermaine Kearse and Golden Tate in tight defensive games. Carolina’s defense, which had allowed at least 37 points in four of its previous five games, held the Seahawks in check before Wilson led a nine-play, 80-yard drive for the only touchdown. Wilson finished 20 of 32 for 199 yards with one interception and one touchdown. PATRIOTS 51, BEARS 23 In Foxborough, Mass., Tom Brady threw five scoring passes and the streaking Patriots crammed three touchdowns into the last two minutes of the first half. New England (6-2) scored on all five of its possessions in the half — and one of Chicago’s — on its way to its fourth straight win. The Bears (3-5) fell behind 45-7 early in the second half and lost for the fourth time in five games. In one of the best statistical games of his brilliant career, Brady completed 30 of 35 passes for 354 yards. He threw three scoring passes to Rob Gronkowski and one each to Tim Wright and Brandon LaFell. VIKINGS 19, BUCCANEERS 13 (OT) In Tampa, Fla., Anthony Barr forced a fumble on the first play of overtime and returned it 27 yards to score. The stunning end came just 17 seconds after the Vikings (3-5) extended the game on Blair Walsh’s 38-yard field goal
on the final play of regulation. Teddy Bridgewater threw for 241 yards, one TD and no interceptions to help Minnesota stop a three-game skid. Mike Glennon threw a 7-yard scoring pass to Austin SeferianJenkins to give Tampa Bay (1-6) a 13-10 lead with 2:02 remaining. But the Bucs’ porous defense couldn’t stop Bridgewater from putting together a nine-play, 61-yard march to get the game into OT. Glennon’s pass to SeferianJenkins gained 10 yards before Barr stripped the ball from the rookie tight end and took it up the left sideline to score. CHIEFS 34, RAMS 7 In Kansas City, Mo., Jamaal Charles ran for two touchdowns, Knile Davis returned a kick 99 yards for another score and the Chiefs trounced their cross-state rival. Cairo Santos added a pair of field goals for Kansas City (4-3), including a career-best 53-yarder. Alex Smith was 24 of 28 for 226 yards, while Davis capped a run of 34 unanswered points with a short touchdown run late in the fourth quarter. DOLPHINS 27, JAGUARS 13 In Jacksonville, Fla., rookie Blake Bortles had two interceptions returned for touchdowns, costly mistakes that helped the Dolphins win. Louis Delmas (81 yards) and Brent Grimes (22 yards) scored on the turnovers for the Dolphins (4-3), who won consecutive games for the first time this season. Ryan Tannehill’s 3-yard pass to Rishard Matthews made it 24-6 late in the third quarter and gave the Dolphins a comfortable cushion in a game they could have easily trailed by double digits. BILLS 43, JETS 23 In East Rutherford, N.J., Kyle Orton threw four touchdown passes and the Bills forced six
turnovers, three each by Geno Smith and Michael Vick. Orton won for the third time in four games since replacing EJ Manuel as the starting quarterback for the Bills (5-3), tossing TD passes to Robert Woods, Lee Smith, Scott Chandler and Sammy Watkins against the listless Jets (1-7). Stephon Gilmore, Preston Brown, Aaron Williams and Da’Norris Searcy had interceptions for the Bills. The Jets have lost seven straight for the first time since 2005, in Herm Edwards’ final season as coach. Geno Smith interceptions on three consecutive possessions in the first quarter and was pulled in favor of Vick, who was picked off once and lost two fumbles. BROWNS 23, RAIDERS 13 In Cleveland, Brian Hoyer threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Andrew Hawkins early in the fourth quarter and the Browns avoided a second straight embarrassing loss. Hoyer’s TD to Hawkins put the Browns (4-3) ahead 16-6, shortly after Cleveland’s defense came to the rescue. Safety Donte Whitner forced a fumble late in the third quarter with a huge hit on Oakland running back Darren McFadden as the Raiders (0-7) were driving deep into Cleveland territory. TEXANS 30, TITANS 16 In Nashville, Tenn., Arian Foster ran for 151 yards and two touchdowns and also caught a pass for a score in the franchise’s 200th game. The Texans (4-4) also snapped a three-game skid as Foster topped 100 yards rushing in his fourth straight game. J.J. Watt had two sacks and forced a fumble as the Texans beat the team they replaced in Houston for the fourth time in five games. Texans linebacker Jadeveon Clowney played for the first time since hurting his knee in the season opener. Clowney finished with one tackle. SAINTS 44, PACKERS 23 In New Orleans, Drew Brees completed 27 of 32 passes for 311 yards and three touchdowns, and the New Orleans Saints ended the Green Bay Packers’ four-game winning streak, 44-23 on Sunday night. Rookie receiver Brandin Cooks had a 50-yard touchdown catch and a 4-yard scoring run, and tight end Jimmy Graham also caught a touchdown pass to help the Saints (3-4) pull even in victories with Carolina (3-4-1), setting up a showdown to decide first place in the NFC South on Thursday night.
Brown: 16 straight FGs for rookie Catanzaro Continued from Page B-1 The Eagles drove to the Arizona 16. On the last play of the game, Jordan Matthews caught a pass from Nick Foles in the end zone but landed out of bounds. Foles and Matthews each tried to take the blame. “Jordan came down with a great catch,” Foles said, “but I’ve got to make sure I keep him inbounds.” Matthews said: “I had to come down with it and get both feet in for my team. End of the day, Nick gave me a chance and I need to make a play for the team.” Foles completed 26 of 62 passes for 411 yards and two touchdowns, both to Jeremy Maclin, but was intercepted twice by Antonio Cromartie, the second one setting up Chandler Catanzaro’s 28-yard field goal that tied it at 17-17 with 9:02 to play.
Cody Parkey also kicked a 54-yarder, the longest field goal by an Eagle since 2003. Catanzaro set an NFL rookie record by beginning his career with 16 consecutive field goals. Maclin caught 12 passes for 187 yards, including touchdowns of 21 and 54 yards. Fitzgerald caught seven for 160, Brown five for 119. Palmer finished 20 of 42 for 329 yards and two scores with no interceptions. Philadelphia had a first down at its 46 when Foles hit Maclin in stride in the end zone, beating defender Jerraud Powers, for a 54-yard touchdown that put the Eagles up 17-14 with 2:22 left in the third quarter. Arizona had taken the lead on the third play of the second half, when Fitzgerald broke free on a slant route, took the pass and outran the Eagles secondary 80 yards
for the score that put the Cardinals up 14-7 just 53 seconds into the second half. Fitzgerald, who got his 37th career 100-yard receiving game, surpassed his career-long catch of 78 yards set in 2008. Turnovers ruined two second-quarter Eagles scoring threats. Philadelphia had it at the Arizona 19 when Foles threw short to Josh Huff, who raced toward the end zone. But Frostee Rucker knocked the ball loose from behind and Arizona’s Deone Bucannon recovered at the Cardinals 2-yard line. Peterson left the game in the second quarter with a possible concussion after teammate Bucannon hit Maclin, knocking the Philadelphia receiver’s helmet into Peterson’s. Maclin also was evaluated for a concussion after the play but returned to the game a short time later.
Soccer: St. Mike’s won 11 straight matches Continued from Page B-1
Girls soccer The St. Michael’s girls soccer team got the No. 2 seed in the Class A-AAAA girls state soccer tournament for the second year in the row. The Lady Horsemen will be joined by No. 9 Santa Fe Prep, who will travel to No. 8 East Mountain in this weekend’s first round. Las Vegas Robertson received the 3-seed and a first round bye after finishing the season on a nine-match win streak. No. 7 Taos will host No. 10 Kirtland Central in the first round for a chance to play St. Michael’s in the quarterfinals at the Albuquerque Public
Schools Soccer Complex on Nov. 6. The Lady Horsemen already beat the Lady Tigers 3-1 this year, but St. Michael’s head coach Robyn Serge said she would rather play the Lady Broncos. “In order for us to prepare for those bigger teams, I’d rather play with somebody that we haven’t seen just to keep the spark alive with the girls,” she said. “It just makes us play a little bit harder.” St. Michael’s won 11 straight matches before losing to Los Alamos 2-1 in the regular-season finale. Serge said the team learned a lot in that loss, and one of the most important lessons was learning to put more power behind shots.
The Lady Horsemen were not challenged by goalkeepers during a six-match stretch where they won each one in accordance to the 10-goal mercy rule, but now they know their shots have to come harder. “We are facing some teams that are going to have some quality goalkeepers, and we have to put them on with intent,” Serge said. The team that taught St. Michael’s this lesson will also be in the quarterfinals. The Lady Hilltoppers got the 3-seed in the AAAAA bracket and will play either Albuquerque Academy or District 2AAAAA foe Del Norte. Los Alamos has already played both of the teams twice,
splitting with the Lady Chargers and sweeping the Lady Knights. It doesn’t really matter who The Lady Hilltoppers play. Los Alamos head coach AJ Herrera said his team should be prepared for anyone. “We’re a confident team, and we’ve just done a good job of going into each match and focusing on the opponent in front of us,” he said. “The state tournament is going to be no different.” So why are the Lady Hilltoppers so confident? Well, winning 10 matches in a row will boost anyone’s confidence. “It’s funny, but putting wins on that record really does wonders for you,” Herrera said.

Ballot: LSU leaps 8 spots to No. 16 Continued from Page B-1 Mississippi State and were blown out at Auburn. Alabama gets rewarded for losing to Mississippi? “I waffled on this one for quite a while,” said Adam Sparks from the Tennessean in Nashville. “My final decision was just a question of which team I think is better today on a neutral field, rather than three weeks ago in Oxford. I think Alabama is better today.” How about Oregon and Arizona? The Wildcats were unranked when they went into Autzen Stadium earlier this month and coming off a miraculous comeback victory against California, capped by a Hail Mary TD pass. Arizona took advantage of the Ducks’ patchwork offensive line, and got the benefit of a late celebration penalty on Oregon during its game-winning drive, to win 31-24. Since then, Oregon’s offensive line has gotten healthier and Marcus Mariota and the Ducks have been rolling. Arizona immediately stumbled against USC, but routed Washington State in Pullman on Saturday. Oregon is No. 5. Arizona is No. 14. “The overall body of work through nine weeks should mean more than individual snapshots from any given week,” said Drew Sharp from the Detroit Free Press. “Oregon might wind up with the biggest non-conference win of the season, taking a good Michigan State team out to the woodshed in the second week of the season. That affords them a little forgiveness over a bad game against Arizona.” Maybe preseason perceptions are still in play? Alabama and Oregon were top-five in the preseason. Ole Miss was No. 17 and Arizona was unranked. But in some cases preseason rankings don’t get in the way. Baylor beat TCU in Waco, Texas, with a stunning 24-point, fourth-quarter comeback. The next week Baylor lost at West Virginia. The Horned Frogs have won two straight by a combined score of 124-36, including Saturday’s 82-27 beatdown of Texas Tech. TCU (6-1), which has also beaten Oklahoma, is No. 10. Baylor (6-1), best win TCU, is No. 12. TCU was unranked in the preseason. Baylor was 10th. Time to see what the selection committee has to say. GOING UP The #SECBias crowd won’t like this. LSU made the biggest move in the rankings this week jumping eight spots to No. 16 after beating Ole Miss. Florida State did gain some ground on Mississippi State in the polls after the Bulldogs had a hard time shaking free from Kentucky in a 45-31 victory on Saturday. The Seminoles gained no first-place votes, but narrowed the points gap between them and the Bulldogs to 33. It was 47 the week before.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Husband in love with two women Dear Annie: Two years ago, a good friend died of a heart attack. His wife, “Sally,” asked me to help her get rid of his things, which I was happy to do, and I soon found myself mowing her lawn and doing chores around the house. Here is the problem: I am a happily married man and father of four. I have been married for 25 years and love my wife dearly, but I have also come to the conclusion that I have fallen in love with Sally. I have no desire to divorce my wife or start an affair, but I struggle very hard with the fact that I am in love with two women. How do I resolve this? — Heart Split in Two Dear Split: Please understand that the love you feel for Sally is not the same as what you feel for your wife. Men often have too little experience acknowledging how much they can love a close friend, so when it happens with a woman, they conclude that it must be romantic in nature. But that’s not necessarily true. It’s understandable to confuse this loving friendship with the loving intimacy you have shared with your wife for 25 years, and it’s OK to care deeply for Sally. But you should not do anything to encourage the friendship to be more than it is or to jeopardize your marriage. That means limiting your contact with Sally, inviting your wife to join you when you go to Sally’s house and perhaps even introducing Sally to available men so you don’t act as if you are filling that role. If you are unable to do that, it’s time to back off completely. Dear Annie: I had sole care of my mother, and when she died three years ago, I wrote the death notice for the newspaper. I inadvertently left off my brother’s stepson. This was not intentional, and I regret the error. I sent two emails to my brother and his wife apologizing. Unfortunately, my sister-in-law told my grown children that her heart was broken. She has not spoken to me since. I never thought a rift like this would happen in our family. I have now given up on
this relationship. I feel I have done all that I can to apologize. Do you agree? — Unforgiven Dear Unforgiven: Mistakes like this happen all the time, and it certainly seems as though your sister-in-law is determined to hold a grudge. But two emails don’t really qualify as a heartfelt, sincere apology. Please go see her in person. Perhaps your brother or one of your children could facilitate the meeting. Tell her how sorry you are for excluding her son and that you certainly didn’t mean to and would correct it if it were possible. Also tell her how heartbroken you are by the family rift, and ask whether there is anything you can do to fix it. If she still won’t speak to you, then we would say you have done all you can. Dear Annie: You two need a lobotomy. “Still Grieving” complained that she received a sympathy card and the person added her dog’s paw prints. There is nothing wrong with that. My dogs are my kids. I sign their names to everything, and I add a paw print for each of them. I actually put food coloring on their paws. You are obviously ignorant when it comes to the true love between pets and their owners. My dogs also eat off of my dishes and at the table on their birthdays. — PO’d in New York Dear New York: Adding your dog’s name to a sympathy card is tolerable. But a paw print is inappropriate, and we’ll stick to that whether you like it or not. We wouldn’t add a child’s handprint (with food coloring, no less) to a sympathy card, either. Please stop thinking of yourself, and consider the person on the receiving end. But we’ll consider the lobotomy, thanks.
