MINNEAPOLIS — The cloud of insecticide that drifted from a neighbor’s corn field onto the asparagus on Andrew and Melissa Dunham’s central Iowa farm cast a shadow over their organic vegetable business. They say the costs from the incident and resulting loss of organic certification on their asparagus patch for three years will reach about $74,000, and they’re now working with the sprayer’s insurance company. “We’re a certified organic farm — except for our asparagus,” Melissa Dunham lamented. Pesticide drift is a serious concern for organic farmers and they’ve come up with several defenses, such as buffer strips. Twelve states are part of a registry of farms that tips off aerial and ground sprayers to areas they need to avoid. The aerial spraying industry and pesticide manufacturers, meanwhile, say they’ve made big strides in controlling drift through pilot education and new technologies.
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama will delay taking executive action on immigration until after the midterm elections, bowing to pressure from fellow Democrats who feared that acting now could doom his party’s chances this fall, White House officials said Saturday. The decision is a reversal of Obama’s vow to issue broad directives to overhaul the immigration system soon after summer’s end, and sparked swift anger from immigration advocates. The president made the promise on June 30, standing in the Rose Garden, where he angrily denounced Republican obstruction and said he would use the power of his office to protect immigrant families from the threat of deportation. “Because of the Republicans’ extreme politicization of this issue, the president believes it would be harmful to the policy itself and to the long-

Questions about rights of way generate confusion, frustration By Staci Matlock The New Mexican
A
s a teenager in the early 1980s, Janet Hererra drove the county roads around her hometown of El Rancho, a small community stretched along both sides of the Pojoaque River north of Santa Fe. Now she drives the same Santa Fe County roads to reach N.M. 502 and her job
at Los Alamos National Laboratory. At least she thought they were county roads. That’s how they were labeled on maps. Everyone knew the county maintained them. But Herrera and her neighbors found out a few months ago that San Ildefonso Pueblo believes County Road 84 and several spur roads belong to the pueblo. The pueblo has told the county and two El Rancho

residents to negotiate easements or face trespassing fines. Questions about rights of way cloud the titles to El Rancho properties and are making it hard for some people to sell their homes. Some residents fear the pueblo could prevent them from accessing their homes. This isn’t the only issue rattling the community of about 1,000 people.

Longtime Ken Burns collaborator has ties to Santa Fe Producer, editor will take part in upcoming preview, discussion of new Roosevelt series By Anne Constable The New Mexican
Paul Barnes, a freelance film editor living in Manhattan in the 1980s, loved visiting the Statue of Liberty in
Index
New York Harbor. When he heard that a filmmaker was planning a documentary about Lady Liberty, Barnes thought, “Oh, my God, I’ve got to do this film.” The prospect was even more alluring when he learned that the filmmaker was Ken Burns, already famous for a 1982 documentary on another landmark — Brooklyn Bridge, his first film for PBS, was an Academy Award nominee. “No one does historical documen-
taries like he does,” Barnes said, and “I kind of hounded his office to get an interview.” He sent Burns a copy of his own film, No Maps on My Taps, about three African American tap dancers, and met with Burns’ producer, Buddy Squires, with whom he “hit it off.” He finally got a call from Burns inviting him to work on Statue of Liberty.

In brief Crews search for private plane carrying couple KINGSTON, Jamaica — Rescue crews searching off Jamaica’s coast on Saturday said they could no longer see debris spotted earlier, stymieing efforts to solve the mystery surrounding a small plane carrying a prominent upstate New York couple that went on a ghostly 1,700-mile journey after the pilot was apparently incapacitated. Jamaican officials said that possible wreckage from the single-engine turboprop Socata TBM700 was sighted Friday evening by a military aircraft flying off the island’s northeast coast, drifting roughly 24 miles off the coastal town of Port Antonio. The island’s military said in a statement that Jamaican and U.S. officials felt the sighting was “consistent with that of a high-impact debris field.” But on Saturday, Jamaica Coast Guard Cmdr. Antonette Wemyss-Gorman said that the pieces of floating debris could no longer be seen. “We would have to assume it may have sunk,” she said.
Chinese travelers line up to blast off By Cao Li The New York Times
BEIJING — One night in June, Sheng Tianxing made good on his name, which translated literally means “sky travel.” With a single click online, he paid $100,000, about a third of his annual income, for a seat on a rocket that will carry him into space. Come 2016, if all goes as planned, Sheng, 41, a tea trader from the southeastern Chinese province of Zhejiang, will spend up to six minutes floating 64 miles above the Earth as one of the first civilians aboard a commercially operated flight beyond the planet’s atmosphere. “I’ve always wanted to go into space,” he said recently, recalling that he got hooked on space films and science fiction as a boy growing up in a mountain village. “I’ve always wondered if Armstrong did actually walk on the moon. I’d like to have a look myself.” A half-century ago, bemoaning his nation’s backwardness, Mao Zedong said that China could not launch a potato into space. Now, Chinese business people are lining up for voyages to the cosmos, and tour operators say China is set to become the world’s largest market for the incipient space tourism industry. Already, more than 30 mainland Chinese have purchased or made down payments of 50 percent on tickets for journeys offered by XCOR Aerospace, a company based in Mojave, Calif. The tours went on sale in China in December. Since then, one in 10 of all bookings have been by Chinese citizens, according to Dexo Travel, the Beijing-based sales agent. The sales reflect late-blooming interest in space travel in China, which celebrated the successful landing of a lunar rover in December, four decades after the United States accomplished the same feat. The notion of traveling amid the stars has captivated a segment of the Chinese public just as it once fascinated Americans who were riveted by Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the moon. But unlike that earlier generation, the Chinese have the option of booking a trip themselves. “There are wealthy people everywhere in the world, but there are not so many wealthy people who also dream of going into space,” said Alex Tang, chief executive of XCOR Aerospace’s Asia operation. China, he said, had both. In a survey this year of more than 200 Chinese luxury travelers by the Shanghai-based research firm Hurun, about 7 percent said they hoped to visit space within the next three years.

Zeal and devotion guide volunteers to Ebola crisis Health aides puts fear behind to confront outbreak directly By Mitch Weiss and Travis Loller The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. orking with Ebola patients in Liberia, American pediatrician Alan Jamison treated as many people as he could as the country slipped into chaos. Each day, more patients showed up at the hospital’s doors. The deadly virus wasn’t the only danger: Ebola was causing such fear that some Liberians were threatening to burn down the isolation unit with doctors and patients inside. His medical missionary group pulled him out early as a precaution. Still, the 69-year-old retiree says he’d return. “This is where the need is,” Jamison explains. “This is my calling.” Jamison isn’t alone — even after three American aid workers fell sick, many other doctors, nurses and other health care volunteers are on their way to West Africa, helping to staff hospitals and clinics and screen travelers to slow the epidemic’s spread. Why are so many willing to put themselves in harm’s way? “It’s a call, a zeal, a devotion. It’s an acceptance of a professional life outside the ordinary, with an element of adventure,” said William Schaffner, an infectious disease specialist at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn. Hospital volunteer Nancy Writebol and Dr. Kent Brantly were already in Liberia when the outbreak began, and decided to stay at the charity-run ELWA hospital in Monrovia to help. Richard Sacra, a 15-year ELWA veteran, immediately volunteered to leave his family in suburban Boston and return to the hospital when Writebol and Brantly got sick. Jamison also worked there. All are committed to their cause. Like Jamison, Nancy Writebol and her husband, David, told The Associated Press that they’d consider going back. Brantly said he couldn’t return just yet, but would keep campaigning to end Ebola. Sacra also had no regrets, his wife said as the doctor was evacuated to

Monsoon kills 128 people in Pakistan, 108 in India ISLAMABAD — Heavy monsoon rains and flash floods have killed 128 people in Pakistan and 108 people in India, officials said Saturday, as forecasters warned of more rain in the coming days and troops raced to evacuate people from deluged areas. The annual monsoon season has struck hard across the region, leaving people to wade through rushing water in towns and villages across Pakistan and in Indian-controlled areas of Kashmir, where authorities say they are seeing some of the worst flooding in decades. Ahmad Kamal, a spokesman for Pakistan’s National Disaster Management Authority, said at least 69 people have died in the eastern Punjab province since Thursday. He said another 48 people died in the Pakistan-controlled part of Kashmir and 11 died in northern Gilgit Baltistan province. Kamal said officials believe most were killed when the roofs of their homes collapsed. He said the deluge has injured 261 people across the country. “We are dispatching tents and other relief items for those who have been affected because of rains and floods,” he said. He said the army was using helicopters and boats to evacuate people from affected areas and had set up nearly 50 relief camps to shelter them.

the isolation unit in a Nebraska hospital. These volunteers are passionate, but there’s also a cold logic to their commitment: This epidemic that has killed more than 2,000 people and sickened 3,900 in five West African nations won’t end unless more experienced health care workers confront it directly. Ebola is being spread by people, in hospitals, homes and funerals. People catch the virus when they have direct contact with the blood or bodily fluids of those who are sick and dying, or already dead. At ELWA, Jamison trained workers how to protect themselves and the wider population. The hospital in Monrovia is operated by Charlotte-based SIM USA, and includes more than 200 beds as well as the 50-bed isolation unit for patients. Keeping those populations separate is essential, Jamison said, but is no simple matter. He trained workers to wear a mask and gloves and screen new patients from several feet away before they were allowed to enter. When patients showed signs of Ebola, a worker wearing a protective suit would be summoned to bring them to a holding area for evaluation and then to the isolation unit if necessary. But the screeners have to ask the right questions to suss out the truth in such a fearful environment, Jamison said. And if anyone masking Ebola symptoms is allowed inside, they could expose many more people who don’t routinely wear full-body protective suits. Rendi Murphree, an epidemiologist with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, volunteered to leave Tuesday for Liberia, where she will screen passengers leaving the country at the Monrovia airport. “This is the type of crisis situation that you prepare most of your career for, so it’s exciting to help in a big response that has so much impact,” said Murphree, who also served in Haiti after its 2010 earthquake. “I haven’t had anyone try to dissuade me in earnest … I’ve had a lot of feedback from people who say they’re proud of me, they can’t wait to hear how the deployment goes.” However, “my mother, grandmother and mother-in-law have put me on the prayer list at church, and notified the extended family to do the same,” she said.
FRESNO, Calif. — Although California is locked in a third year of historic drought, many homeowners and businesses still don’t have meters telling them just how much water they are using. That’s changing, but some say it’s not fast enough. State law requires water meters by 2025, but the State Water Resources Control Board says dozens of water districts, many in the thirsty Central Valley, aren’t totally metered. More than 235,000 homes and businesses in the state are not equipped with meters, according to the most recent figures for 2013 collected by the State Water Board. An Associated Press analysis found that Californians who live in 10 water districts with the highest number of unmetered home or business all used more water each day than the state average. The number of unmetered homes and businesses represents a small fraction of water services statewide, but officials say every drop counts. Gov. Jerry Brown in January declared a drought emergency, and state officials in July approved fines up to $500 for residents caught wasting water. Some communities have put water cops on patrol. The state’s unmetered homes and businesses are another example of California’s struggle to track water use.

Apparent shelling heard outside Ukrainian port Friday’s cease-fire held for most of day By Jim Heintz and Laura Mills The Associated Press
KIEV, Ukraine — Witnesses in the Ukrainian port city of Mariupol reported sustained explosions outside the city and a volunteer battalion of Ukrainian fighters says Grad rockets were fired at its positions late Saturday, little more than a day
The volunteer Azov Battalion said on Facebook that their positions were hit by Grad rockets, but did not give details. Mariupol is a port city of about half a million on the coast of the Sea of Azov. Rebels recently opened a new front on the coast, leading to fears that the separatists were trying to secure a land corridor between Russia and the Crimean Peninsula, which Russia annexed in March. Earlier Saturday, the presidents of Ukraine and Russia
after Ukraine and Russianbacked separatist rebels signed a cease-fire following more than four months of fighting in the country’s east. It appeared the cease-fire had been largely holding during much of the day. But late Saturday, witnesses in Mariupol told The Associated Press by telephone that heavy explosions were coming from the city’s eastern outskirts, where Ukrainian troops retain defensive lines against the rebels.
said the cease-fire was mostly holding, but the truce still appeared fragile as both sides of the conflict claimed violations. A statement from Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko’s office said he and Russian President Vladimir Putin discussed steps “for giving the cease-fire a stable character” in a telephone conversation Saturday. But, it said, both leaders assessed the cease-fire as having been “fulfilled as a whole.” A separate Kremlin statement
about the call said, “There was a mutual satisfaction with the fact that the sides of the conflict were overall observing the cease-fire regime.” Col. Andriy Lysenko, a spokesman for Ukraine’s national security council, told reporters that rebels had fired at Ukrainian forces on 10 occasions Friday night after the cease-fire took effect. In Donetsk, the largest city controlled by the Russian-backed separatists, the night passed quietly — a rarity
Mixed views on NATO decision By Monika Scislowska

The Associated Press
WARSAW, Poland — Leaders in most Eastern European nations are just short of jubilant after NATO created a rapid-reaction “spearhead” force to protect the region from Russian bullying. They have long sought a commitment to allay their fears, especially following Russia’s recent aggression in Ukraine. But not all share in the joy. Some who spent decades under the Soviet yoke — politicians and ordinary people — think that the move could enrage Moscow and undermine the sense of security they have felt since the collapse of the Soviet Union and the expansion of NATO in the 1990s. The region’s long-standing distrust of Russia became more acute following Russia’s annexation of the Crimea Peninsula and its role in the armed conflict in eastern Ukraine. Poland, the region’s largest country and most potent speaker, has pushed for a large, permanent deployment of at least two divisions of NATO troops on its territory as a deterrent to any such activity in Russia’s west. The NATO summit in Newport, Wales last week settled for less, after Germany and some other major members insisted they want to keep a dialogue open with Moscow. The sum-

stop at a NATO-linked multinational force in Szczecin, in northwestern Poland, that is to be strengthened under the new strategy. Some speculate Szczecin may host the command of the “spearhead.”
mit decided on a new, rapidreaction force of some 5,000 troops, a “spearhead” ready to deploy to any conflict zone in a matter of hours. The command and key infrastructure is to be located near the Russian border. In Poland, many presume. “We would have liked more but let’s be happy with the decisions taken in Newport,” Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk said. “We still have a lot of work to do to make this quantitative change satisfying.” But, he insisted: “This signal is very strong and our Eastern neighbor [Russia] cannot ignore it.” As the summit deliberated on Friday, Ukraine, Russia and the Kremlin-backed separatists signed a cease-fire and the months-long fighting in Eastern Ukraine seemed to be held back. On his way home from Newport, Poland’s President Bronislaw Komorowski made a
after several months of daily shelling in residential areas. But Alexander Zakharchenko, the top separatist leader from Donetsk, told the Russian news agency RIA Novosti that the cease-fire had been violated with two rounds of shelling in the town of Amvrosiivka, about 30 miles from Donetsk. “At this time the cease-fire agreement is not being fully observed,” he said. He didn’t say when the supposed breach occurred.

Delay: Advocates call Obama’s choice ‘a slap to the face’ Continued from Page A-1
Stella Shelburn examines her $229.81 Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative bill Thursday at her El Rancho home. Easement agreements between the co-op and San Ildefonso Pueblo have led to electric rate increases. Other pueblo rights-of-way issues also have increased tensions between pueblo and non-pueblo people in the community. LUIS SÁNCHEZ SATURNO/THE NEW MEXICAN
El Rancho: Residents say they feel abandoned Continued from Page A-1 A settlement in the long-running Aamodt water-rights suit that will impact water delivery and new easements for utility lines crossing pueblo lands eventually will hit El Rancho residents in their pocketbooks. “People are upset,” said Herrera, 50. “People are wondering, ‘How did we get here and where will it end?’ ” San Ildefonso Pueblo Gov. Terry Aguilar, who is an attorney, said he is simply following the law when it comes to rights of way. “We’re not going to be taken advantage of anymore,” Aguilar said. The issue has created a rift between pueblo and El Rancho residents, who have lived side by side for generations. The situation isn’t unique. Around New Mexico and across the West, tribes and communities are renegotiating leases that affect everything from oil pipelines to state highways.
Longtime neighbors The Spanish came to the Pojoaque Valley and San Ildefonso Pueblo in the 1600s. Pueblo people had been there for a few centuries already. They were joined by an influx of Anglos in the 1940s as Los Alamos grew up around the Manhattan Project. “We farmed together. We traded together. We attended baptisms,” said San Ildefonso Tribal Councilor Tim Martinez. “We helped each other at harvest. We played ball together.” Herrera said Gov. Aguilar’s aunt used to come over to her grandmother Maria Duran’s house with big pans of biscochitos and other food. The two women worked on crafts together. Herrera said that when her grandfather Tony “AC” Duran was still an infant, his mother died and he was nursed by a San Ildefonso Pueblo potter. Herrera and her husband celebrate Mass at the San Ildefonso church every Sunday. But things have changed in the last year as the pueblo has asserted its right to renegotiate easements and questioned road boundaries. “It is really sad what is happening now,” said Herrera during a recent lunch break in Los Alamos. “The tensions are high. Between the Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative easements and rate increase, and now the roads and next the regional water system — it doesn’t feel so friendly anymore.” Martinez, speaking recently at Tesuque Village Market, said, “We don’t want to see communities separate in the valley.” But he said the pueblo has been dealing with trespassers for a long time, and now is the time to finally get it under control. “What would you do if people were trespassing on your land?” he asked.
History of disputes As it turns out, history is simply repeating itself in the dispute over land, roads and rights between San Ildefonso Pueblo and El Rancho. A Spanish governor in 1701 made land grants to Spanish families in the area that became El Rancho, land San Ildefonso Pueblo still considered its own, according to Spanish Archives of New Mexico and scholars. El Rancho is completely surrounded by pueblo land. Disputes over the land continued through the 18th century. By 1868, land patents held by San Ildefonso and other pueblos had been recognized by each conquering government — Spain, Mexico and the United States. More legal wrangling followed, though, as the U.S. Supreme Court made pendulum swings in how it viewed Native Americans and land rights. At different times, the pueblo government sold off parcels of land. To stop all the disputes, Congress passed the 1924 Pueblo Lands Act and told everyone in the valley — pueblo and non-pueblo — to prove their claims. It seemed the
whole dispute over lands and boundaries was settled. But as communities grew, electric lines were put in, roads were built and natural gas pipelines were installed. Disputes over rights of way across pueblo lands increased. In 1967, the pueblo refused an easement deal with the New Mexico Highway Commission to extend N.M. 30 between Española and the road to Los Alamos. The state threatened to condemn the 3.6-mile section across San Ildefonso Pueblo land because the pueblo wouldn’t agree to the offered price. In 1976, San Ildefonso Pueblo named trespassing by non-pueblo people as one of its main concerns. Over the years, pueblo officials said, fences had been cut, woodcutters had hauled off firewood, trash had piled up and off-road trails had appeared on pueblo land. It’s not that people meant harm, said James Martinez, the pueblo governor at the time. “They’re just individuals who don’t pay attention to signs.” In the late 1990s, when Terry Aguilar became governor of San Ildefonso, the pueblo again disputed Santa Fe County’s jurisdiction over County Road 84-C. The pueblo was furious when the county’s maintenance trucks came through the pueblo during religious ceremonies. The county apologized but said it was responsible for maintaining the road. Pueblo officials in 1999 also threatened to shut down a portion of N.M. 4 that crosses pueblo land after negotiations to renew a 50-year-old lease failed. But the road wasn’t closed and the two sides eventually worked out a deal.
Rising tensions Still, people in El Rancho and San Ildefonso say they don’t remember anything like the tension that’s arisen in the last year. “I don’t know all the players. I don’t know all the issues,” said Stella Shelburn from her home in El Rancho. “I just know people are hurting.” The community’s residents already were angry over new rights-of-way agreements between Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative and five pueblos that would raise their electricity rates by up to 30 percent over the next few years. The way the rate cases were handled made them feel abandoned by the state Public Regulation Commission, the cooperative and their elected officials. Then they found out San Ildefonso Pueblo was threatening Santa Fe County with trespass on County Road 84, 84-C and other spurs. Until N.M. 502 was built, County Road 84 was the main road between Pojoaque and El Rancho. Santa Fe County inked an easement agreement with the pueblo in 1989, and El Rancho residents had thought the easement was permanent. The pueblo says it isn’t. El Rancho residents have formed a couple of groups to get information out to the community. “I guess you could say we are feeling a bit not represented by our elected officials,” said Heather Nordquist, Shelburn’s daughter, who is the fifth generation on her mother’s side to grow up in El Rancho. “We don’t have anything against the pueblo, but if the feds and the county are working with them and giving them money, then who is working for us?” “We want the pueblo to succeed, but we don’t feel everyone else has to fail for the pueblo to succeed.” Official salvos in the county road trespass battle have fired back and forth between officials since December, when Raymond Fry, superintendent of the Northern Pueblos Agency of the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs, sent a letter to Santa Fe County saying it lacked an easement to use County Roads 84, 84-A to 84-D and Sandy Way across San Ildefonso Pueblo land. The county was given 30 days to negotiate a rights-of-way easement with the pueblo for the roads or face trespass fines and eviction.
Two El Rancho residents who live on private land accessed by those roads received the same letter telling them they were trespassing. County Manager Katherine Miller and then county attorney Stephen Ross fired an angry letter back to the BIA, saying the agency had failed to properly research the road easement and asking Fry to immediately withdraw his letter. The county called the BIA’s allegation of trespass “a serious overreaching” and “far from a constructive way to renew the debate about county lands and access to non-Indian property within the Pueblos.” New Mexico Congressman Ben Ray Luján sent a letter to Kevin Washburn, assistant secretary of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, saying the agency’s letters “have begun to unravel the fabric of the local community. Community members are in fear of losing access to their homes and businesses.” The BIA responded in April, noting the agency and San Ildefonso Pueblo don’t agree that the 1989 right-of-way agreement covers all the county roads in question. “BIA doesn’t get involved unless they are 100 percent sure they are right,” Gov. Aguilar said. Tensions surrounding County Road 84 boiled over at a community meeting last month, when private property owners in the community of El Rancho accused Aguilar of taking away their rights, according to people who were there. Congressman Luján, a Pojoaque Valley native, attended the meeting. “I am concerned with the emotional tone in the community,” Luján said later via email. “At the public meeting the situation regarding Ferguson, Mo., was brought up. Given what has happened in other parts of the country, I am fearful of what could fall apart in our community.” “It is important that as we deal with these issues we do not lose sight of the fact that we are one big community that must find a way to work together to find peaceful solutions.” Aguilar said his intention is to show where the county roads cross pueblo land and to ensure everyone who has a driveway connecting to the county roads across pueblo lands has legal access. “Let’s determine if this is Indian land or non-Indian land,” he said. The pueblo is working with the county to survey the roads and adjacent lands in El Rancho now. They will hold another community meeting to discuss the results.
Revenue opportunities San Ildefonso Pueblo has no casino like its neighbors in Pojoaque, Santa Clara and Tesuque. Aguilar is clear his intention is to make sure the pueblo is fairly paid by companies to run water lines, gas lines, electricity and fiber optics across pueblo land. Aguilar said that settling road access issues ultimately will help El Rancho residents. “Right now, with unresolved access issues, property values can be impacted and affect their ability to sell property,” he said in an email. “It’s always like this when Native Americans become very aggressive, become educated, study and decide to make things better for themselves,” Martinez said. “People come out of the woodwork and say, ‘You can’t do this to us.’ ” Nordquist said the problem is that people in El Rancho don’t understand the pueblo’s endgame. “We’re all just sitting back and thinking, what are they going to do? Are they going to lock us out of their property? Are they planning to charge us so much for utility easements that we can’t afford the bills? “Maybe if we understood it better, there wouldn’t be so much controversy,” she said.

term prospects for comprehensive immigration reform to announce administrative action before the elections,” a White House official said. “Because he wants to do this in a way that’s sustainable, the president will take action on immigration before the end of the year.” Cristina Jimenez, the managing director for United We Dream, an immigration advocacy group, accused Obama of “playing politics” with the lives of immigrant families and said, “The president’s latest broken promise is another slap to the face of the Latino and immigrant community.” Administration officials insist that Obama is more determined than ever to take action — eventually. But the president and his top aides have concluded that an immigration announcement before November could anger conservatives across the country, possibly cripple Democratic efforts to retain control of the Senate and severely set back any hope for progress on a permanent immigration overhaul. In particular, advisers to Obama believe that an announcement before the midterm elections in November would inject the already controversial issue into a highly charged campaign environment that would encourage members of both parties to take more hard line positions on the issue than they normally would. That could drive away support for what the president’s advisers believe are common-sense changes to the immigration system, even among Democrats. One adviser said that if immigration was seen as costing Democrats control of the Senate — even if other issues were really to blame — immigration could become toxic for years in both parties, much like gun control did after the issue was blamed for Democratic losses in 1994. The combustible nature of the immigration debate was demonstrated over the summer, when the border crossings of unaccompanied children from Central America quickly became a highly charged partisan issue. Democrats on Capitol Hill warned the White House to deal with that issue before announcing broader immigration changes. Obama acknowledged that the surge in unaccompanied children at the border undermined public support for a broader immigration overhaul. He said delaying any executive action would give the administration more time to get the policy right and explain it to the public. “I’m going to act because it’s the right thing for the country,” Obama said in an interview with NBC’s Meet the Press to be broadcast Sunday. “But it’s going to be more sustainable and more effective if the public understands what the facts are on immigration, what we’ve done on unaccompanied children, and why it’s necessary.” The president and his team believe that waiting until after the election season is over will allow him to unveil sweeping and sustainable changes to the immigration system that could potentially shield millions of illegal immigrants from deportation and provide work permits for many. “The president is confident in his authority to act, and he will before the end of the year,” one official said, speaking anonymously to discuss White House strategy. The president made calls to political allies and others to discuss the decision during Friday’s long flight on Air Force One as he returned from Europe after a NATO summit meeting. On Saturday, Republicans quickly attacked Obama’s decision, calling it a cynical ploy to avoid letting voters express their opinions on his plan to use executive power on the issue. “The decision to simply delay this deeply controversial and possibly unconstitutional unilateral action until after the election — instead of abandoning the idea altogether — smacks of raw politics,” Speaker John Boehner of Ohio said. Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., said, “The founders of our country did not want a king, and the American people do not want a president who acts like one.” He called Obama’s decision a “shameful presidential trick.” The delay also is angering Hispanic activists who have been pressing Obama for months to sidestep Congress. Leaders of several immigration groups said their members would be furious with the president for raising — and then dashing — their hopes. They criticized Obama for the delay, saying it breaks a solemn pledge to immigrants. Mary Kay Henry, president of the Service Employees International Union, said: “Today, we are deeply disheartened that the dreams of hardworking immigrant families who have long contributed to the fabric of the American life remain in jeopardy. The White House’s decision to delay executive action forces countless families to continue to wait in the shadows of fear.” Since Obama took office, his administration has significantly increased the number of deportations, especially along the border with Mexico. Immigration advocates have complained that families are being torn apart when parents or children who are in the country illegally are arrested and sent home. For years, Obama said the solution to the deportations was an overhaul of immigration laws. When that effort failed, he said he would act on his own. The anger over the delay is certain to intensify in the coming days. But Obama’s advisers appear to have convinced him that he will be able to win back the support of immigrant activists — and create a personal legacy on the issue — as long as he acts boldly after the midterm elections. History suggests the president’s advisers may be right about the advocates’ short-term memory. For years, Obama promised increasingly impatient advocates for gay and lesbian rights that he would repeal the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy on serving in the armed forces. When he finally pushed through an end to the policy in December 2010, gay Americans hailed the action. In his first term, Obama also earned the scorn of immigrants brought to the United States as children and were demanding an end to their deportations. But when he created a program to shield them from deportations in 2012, much was forgiven. The president’s aides said he was certain to take action after the election, but they have declined to say specifically what actions he is considering or how many people they could affect. Obama said Friday that he had begun reviewing options and recommendations from Attorney General Eric Holder and Jeh Johnson, the secretary of Homeland Security. Among the possibilities that officials have explored is the unilateral expansion of a program that would provide many illegal immigrants with work permits to allow them to legally live and work in the country indefinitely. The president’s pledge in June had committed him to acting in the weeks before the midterm elections, when a half-dozen Democratic senators must face the voters. Sensing a potentially powerful issue, Republicans have repeatedly accused Obama of preparing to usurp power from Congress and of wildly overstepping the authority of his office. As Election Day drew closer, nervous Democratic senators in Arkansas, Louisiana, North Carolina and Alaska had told White House officials that Obama’s actions could cost them victory. Those conversations culminated in the decision to delay immigration action.

Memos on Bush-era justification for wiretapping released
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — It’s not easy to prevent the Supreme Court from deciding an issue once the justices have agreed to hear a case. But over the past two years, civil rights advocates have managed to do just that by coaxing settlements in a pair of highprofile housing discrimination cases weeks before the court was set to hear oral arguments. The advocates’ goal was to remove any chance that court conservatives might undermine a powerful legal doctrine the Obama administration and others have used increasingly to enforce the Fair Housing Act. While those last-minute settlements pushed the issue down the road, the Supreme Court could decide as early as this month whether to take up yet another case challenging so-called “disparate impact” lawsuits. In disparate impact cases, plaintiffs rely on statistics to show that seemingly neutral housing or lending practices can disproportionately harm racial minorities, even if there is no proof of intent to discriminate. The theory has been used for years to show bias in employment cases, but Texas officials are urging the justices to find that it doesn’t apply in housing discrimination cases. The Texas Department of
mark employment discrimination case in 1971. But the theory has emerged in recent years as a centerpiece of the Justice Department’s effort to crack down on illegal housing practices. In 2011, the government won a record $335 million settlement from Bank of America to resolve allegations that its Countrywide unit discriminated against black and Hispanic customers by charging them higher fees and steering them into higher-risk subprime loans. The lawsuits have drawn the ire of banks and mortgage companies, which contend that federal housing laws should punish only intentional acts of discrimination. Civil rights groups say the disparate impact argument is needed to counter forms of discrimination that are less overt but still have the effect of hurting racial minorities.
MONDAY
Housing and Community Affairs is seeking to overturn a lower court ruling that found disparate impact could be used to show the agency illegally steered low-income housing into mostly black neighborhoods. If the high court doesn’t take up the Texas case, at least two other cases are also moving through federal courts challenging the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s adoption last year of regulations that specifically recognize disparate impact claims in housing cases. “It became clear early on in the [Chief Justice John] Roberts court era that the best way for liberal groups to win before the Supreme Court on issues aside from gay rights is not to play,” said Rick Hasen, a professor at the University of CaliforniaIrvine School of Law. But Hasen said he doesn’t expect the game of keep away to last on the housing issue because opponents keep bringing legal challenges and the justices clearly are interested. Disparate impact has been used for more than four decades since the Supreme Court embraced it in a land-

In March 2004, the Office of Legal Counsel ruled the email program was not legal, and thenacting attorney general James Comey refused to reauthorize it. In July 2004, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court authorized the program under a theory that bulk email collection could be relevant to a terrorism investigation. That program was shut down in 2011. “Unfortunately, the sweeping surveillance they sought to justify is not a thing of the past,” Toomey said. “The government’s legal rationales have shifted over time, but some of today’s surveillance programs are even broader and more intrusive than those put in place more than a decade ago by President Bush.”

Hamdi captured on the battlefield in Afghanistan, bolstered the reasoning of his first memo. Five justices in the decision, he said, agreed that Hamdi’s detention was authorized because it is a “fundamental” and “accepted” incident of waging war, he said. “Because the interception of enemy communications for intelligence purposes is also a fundamental and long-accepted incident of war, the [AUMF] likewise provides authority for Stellar Wind,” he said. The Hamdi decision, Toomey noted, did not make any mention of wiretapping or intelligence collection on U.S. soil. The memos were written at a time of high-level internal debate about the legality of the surveillance programs. And they do not discuss at length what was reported to have been at the time the most controversial of the

rantless program. “In authorizing ‘all necessary and appropriate force,’ ” he said, the AUMF necessarily applied to electronic surveillance, including domestically. He also said that the authorization can be read to “provide specific authority … that overrides the limitations” of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, a law passed in 1978 that required a court order to wiretap an American or any person on U.S. soil. So broad is the president’s Article II power, that he can conduct warrantless searches for foreign intelligence purposes without congressional approval “even in peacetime,” Goldsmith stated, citing Supreme Court cases and the Federalist papers. In a second memo, dated July 16, 2004, Goldsmith argued that a Supreme Court decision reached weeks earlier, involving a U.S. citizen named Yaser Esam

under court oversight in 2007. “What these memos show is that nearly three years after President Bush authorized the warrantless wiretapping of Americans’ emails and phone calls, government lawyers were still struggling to put the program on sound legal footing,” said Patrick Toomey, staff attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union, which obtained the memos through a public records lawsuit. “Their conclusions are deeply disturbing,” he said. “They suggest that the president’s power to monitor the communications of Americans is virtually unlimited … when it comes to foreign intelligence.” Goldsmith argued that Congress’s 2001 Authorization for the Use of Military Force, or AUMF, passed shortly after the al-Qaida attacks on the U.S. provided “express authority” for the war-

FRIDAY
WASHINGTON — The Justice Department released two decade-old memos Friday, offering the fullest public airing to date of the Bush administration’s legal justification for the warrantless wiretapping of Americans’ phone calls and emails — a program that began in secret after the 2001 terrorist attacks. The broad outlines of the argument — that the president has inherent constitutional power to monitor Americans’ communications without a warrant in a time of war — were known, but the sweep of the reasoning becomes even clearer in the memos written by then-Assistant Attorney General Jack Goldsmith, who was head of President George W. Bush’s Office of Legal Counsel. “We conclude only that when the nation has been thrust into an
armed conflict by a foreign attack on the United States and the president determines in his role as commander in chief … that it is essential for defense against a further foreign attack to use the [wiretapping] capabilities of the [National Security Agency] within the United States, he has inherent constitutional authority” to order warrantless wiretapping — “an authority that Congress cannot curtail,” Goldsmith wrote in a redacted 108-page memo dated May 6, 2004. The program enabled the NSA to collect communications on U.S. soil when at least one party was believed to be a member of al-Qaida or an al-Qaida affiliate, and at least one end of the communication was overseas. Its existence was revealed in 2005 by The New York Times, setting off great controversy, and the program was finally brought

Ties: Seven-part Roosevelt documentary will begin Sept. 14 on PBS Continued from Page A-1
IF YOU GO
“From day one, we just connected,” Barnes said. Having worked with some inexperienced directors in his career, he thought, “Whoa, I’m working with the real deal.” That was the beginning of their 30-year relationship in film. Barnes worked on award-winning Burns documentaries including The Civil War; Baseball; Thomas Jefferson; Lewis & Clark: The Journey of the Corps of Discovery; Jazz; The War and The National Parks: America’s Best Idea. He is now the lead producer and supervising film editor on the latest collaboration: a seven-part, 14-hour series called The Roosevelts: An Intimate History, which PBS will air on consecutive nights beginning Sept. 14. Barnes, who lives part of the year in Santa Fe and plans to retire here, also will be at the Lensic Performing Arts Center on Wednesday for a free special preview screening. He’s selected about 75 minutes of clips from the new series and will participate in a panel discussion following the screening. Burns’ documentary series are now highly anticipated events. Families often gather around the TV set to watch them together. People play them over and over again. Teachers use them in their classrooms. They win Emmys and other awards. All that is very gratifying to the filmmakers. The Civil War was the first to catch on in a big way. “It was actually mind-boggling to us,” Barnes said. “The success of that series and the number of people who watched and their response was overwhelming. We never expected anything like that to happen.” He said they thought they had a high-quality documentary, and they had a lot of fun making it, “but the fact that it became a phenomenon threw us for a loop.”
Simpatico partnership After 30 years, Barnes is very familiar with Burns’ likes and dislikes, and they’re “very simpatico,” he said. “I know what kind of music he likes, the images he gravitates to.” In the editing room, Barnes said, Burns will be looking at a rough cut and say something like, “That interview in the middle, it should start the first scene.” Or he’ll take five sentences out and replace them with two. He is constantly reshaping the narrative, Barnes said. Burns’ subjects are always big, and each documentary takes years to produce. In the case of The Roosevelts, which spans the birth of Theodore in 1858 to the death of Eleanor in 1962, the first pre-production meetings were back in 2008. For more than a decade, scriptwriter Geoffrey C. Ward had been urging Burns to take on the project. Ward had written two biographies of Franklin but never finished the story in book form. And nobody had previously done all three Roosevelts together. Ward knew the family inside out and his first draft, Barnes said, was “so damn good” that he and Burns were “bowled over.” In 2009, Barnes and co-producer Pam Tubridy Baucom began to visit historic sights and research where they might film. They developed a list of archives for stock footage and archival photographs. They constantly reported back to Burns. Barnes calls this the “hunting and gathering” process, a key element of every project. The majority of FDR’s papers and photos are at the library at his home in Hyde Park, N.Y. The library is run by the National Archives, so filmmakers

like Burns don’t have to pay any rights for using them. The materials are in the public domain, and the only costs are for reproduction. For Theodore, the main source was the Houghton Library at Harvard University. But each of the historic sites associated with the key figures also maintain collections. The first shots were filmed at Campobello, the Roosevelt summer home in Canada, in August 2009, even before the first scripts were ready. The crew also filmed at Warm Springs, where FDR was treated for polio, Eleanor’s home at Val-Kill, Theodore’s birthplace on East 20th Street in Manhattan and his family home at Sagamore Hill in Oyster Bay, Long Island. Burns signed some well-known actors — at union minimum — to be the voices of the principal characters. Paul Giamatti’s agent called back within 20 minutes of the initial contact. Turns out that ever since he dressed as Theodore for Halloween when he was 7 years old, Giamatti’s been “dying” to play the former president. Meryl Streep signed on to play Eleanor. “Part of the challenge is to mix [Eleanor’s] real voice with an actor reading Eleanor, so we decided to go for the master of accents,” Barnes said. Edward Herrmann reads the role of Franklin. The film was cut over a two-year period, luxurious by Hollywood filmmaking standards. The script is constantly being revised and scrupulously fact-checked by those who know the Roosevelt story. Two mistakes turned up, Barnes said. The archivist for the FDR library in Hyde Park pointed out that FDR died on a Thursday rather than a Friday. And
a member of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s staff pointed out a sentence that might have suggested that the House of Representatives allows filibusters. The film editors lifted the word Senate from another spot in the film and fixed the problem.
Revelations on Roosevelts What surprised Barnes as he worked on the documentary was “how much an influence Theodore was on Franklin.” “Many of [FDR’s] progressive political polices,” he said, “were an outgrowth of Theodore’s ideas when he became a Progressive,” the party he formed after his split with Republican William Howard Taft. “Theodore really recognized the problems the country was entering in and thought things had to become much more equitable if this country were to survive as the democracy it was created as.” The 26th president, Barnes said, was the first to settle a labor dispute, opposed child labor, passed the Food and Drug Act and even proposed a national health care system. The extent of Franklin’s disabilities was another “big eye-opener” for him, Barnes said, and gave him greater respect for a man who pulled the country through the Depression and World War II but couldn’t walk unaided. The series also explores the president’s problematic marriage to Eleanor. The union started off well, but Franklin’s affair with his wife’s social secretary, Lucy Mercer, broke her heart, Barnes said, and she never trusted him again, although she agreed to stay married. In the end, however, “She turned something tragic into something very
positive and pursued her own identity as a woman in politics.” Eleanor, he said, “was woman ahead of her time. Race, poverty, women’s rights — she was at the forefront of progressive thinking in the 20th century, yet she was really reviled. A lot of people hated her because she talked about birth control, she visited African American schools. She even lobbied for anti-lynching bills.” One of the ideas to emerge from this series, Barnes said, is that “government is good,” or can be. In a day when many Americans have lost trust in their leaders, the new documentary reminds them of a time when people believed in their presidents and felt the country was in “really good hands.”
‘I dreamed of living here’ Barnes first visited the Southwest in the 1970s, particularly the Four Corners area. “When I first saw Santa Fe, I fell in love with it,” he said. “I dreamed of one day living here.” About five years ago, Barnes and his husband, Vernon James, bought a house in Oshara Village, on the city’s south side. He likes to hike and watch old movies at the Lensic, and he is a huge fan and donor to the Aspen Santa Fe Ballet. He and James bought an Acoma pot to add to their Native art collect at Indian Market last month. He currently divides his time between New Mexico and New Hampshire, where Burns’ film company is located. But his Santa Fe home is equipped with an AVID editing system so he can work here. He transfers material to a hard drive and takes it to Walpole, N.H., for screenings.
Film editor Paul Barnes attended The New York University Institute of Film and Television from 1969 to 1973. In 1997, he produced his first film with Ken Burns, Not For Ourselves Alone: The Story of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony, the Peabody and Emmy Award-winning story about the two suffragists. Barnes also was the co-producer and co-editor of Unforgivable Blackness: The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson, a multiple Emmy-winning film about the first African American heavyweight boxing champion. Some of his most noteworthy early films include Wasn’t That A Time!, Say Amen Somebody and The Thin Blue Line.
FACTS ABOUT THE ROOSEVELTS u President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was a Hyde Park, N.Y., Democrat, and his wife, Eleanor, was descended from the Republican Roosevelts of Oyster Bay, Long Island; FDR’s mother thought the couple were too young to marry — he was 22, she 19 when they got engaged. u Eleanor went flying with aviator Amelia Earhart after a White House state dinner in 1933. u FDR and Theodore were fifth cousins, and FDR and Eleanor were fifth cousins once removed, but FDR also was related to 11 presidents, two confederate leaders, Douglas MacArthur and Winston Churchill. u Theodore gave Eleanor away on their wedding day. u Theodore’s father hired a substitute to serve in his place in the Union Army. Theodore spent his life trying to compensate. u Both Franklin and Theodore lost their fathers when they were young. Both of Eleanor’s parents died before she was a teenager. Theodore’s wife died on the same day as his mother from typhoid fever. u Theodore’s daughter Alice chewed gum, smoked in public, carried a snake to parties and ran up debts from gambling and shopping for clothes. u Eleanor was the first wife of a president to hold a new conference and held 348 of them between 1938 and 1945. u FDR, who was stricken with polio, funded research leading to the polio vaccine. u Theodore almost died on an expedition to the Amazon when he battled fever, insect bites and a leg injury.

Drift: Watch program helps vulnerable farms protect their crops Continued from Page A-1 Organic and specialty crop growers are trying to profit off the rising consumer interest in locally grown, natural foods. But those smaller farms are often islands surrounded by a sea of conventionally grown crops that get sprayed with herbicides, insecticides and fungicides. The Dunhams grow about 20 acres of organic vegetables on their 80-acre Grinnell Heritage Farm, selling directly to consumers and wholesale to some grocers. Iowa agricultural officials determined this spring that a ground applicator violated several regulations while spraying an insecticide on a neighboring farm last August. Only the asparagus was affected, Melissa Dunham said, but since they can’t market it as organic again until 2017, they can’t charge wholesale customers as much for it. Any organic farm next to a
conventional farm is at risk, so farmers typically have buffer systems, said Nate Lewis, senior crop and livestock specialist with the Organic Trade Association. There are as many buffer strategies as there are farms, he said. An organic apple orchard in Washington state could sell fruit from its first three rows of trees as conventional or Midwest corn and soybean farmers might just mow down their first few rows of plants. The Dunhams maintain a 30-foot buffer strip of shrubs along the affected side of their farm. They’ve posted no-spray signs and listed their farm on Iowa’s sensitive crops registry. But the precautions weren’t enough. Fortunately, Melissa Dunham said, no customers in their spring communitysupported agriculture program accepted their offer of refunds. “They were more sympathetic and angry, actually, that there were no penalties,” she said.
Andrew Dunham checks out an asparagus plant Thursday on his farm in Grinnell, Iowa. The insecticide that drifted from a neighbor’s cornfield cast a shadow over the Dunhams’ organic vegetable business. CHARLIE NEIBERGALL/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Practical Farmers of Iowa recently began circulating a detailed brochure for farmers and rural residents on how to protect themselves from drift, recognize when it’s happened and what to do then. The group’s
fruit and vegetable growers say drift is one of their top concerns, energy and horticulture coordinator Liz Kolbe said. Better pilot training and sprayer technology have led to significant reductions in
pesticide drift, said Andrew Moore, executive director of the National Agricultural Aviation Association. The association offers a program across the country on safety and drift issues. He said it contributed to a 26 percent drop in confirmed drift instances between when it debuted in 1999 and 2003 alone. But it’s hard for crop dusters to avoid vulnerable farms if they don’t know where they are. Enter Driftwatch, which Purdue University launched in 2008. Producers can register their farms, while applicators can check the website’s interactive map and sign up for email notifications. Twelve states and the Canadian province of Saskatchewan are part of DriftWatch, while Iowa and some other states maintain their own registries. “I think for the states that have been in it a while it is making a huge difference,” said Reid Sprenkel, president and CEO of FieldWatch, the nonprofit that runs DriftWatch.
Organic farmers also worry about a new Dow AgroSciences weed control system awaiting federal approval called Enlist — partly because it uses 2, 4-D, an old herbicide that’s been prone to drift. Pesticide Action Network organizer Linda Wells said 2, 4-D is “notoriously volatile” and particularly harmful to grapes and tomatoes. Enlist kills weeds that are becoming resistant to glyphosate, better known as Roundup. The company has given the 2, 4-D in Enlist Duo herbicide a different chemical structure, and customers must agree to use an advanced type of spray nozzle, said Damon Palmer, commercial leader for Enlist in the U.S. The combination reduces volatility and drift by around 90 percent, he said. “We’ve got a solution here that will allow corn and soybean farmers to farm next to specialty crop and organic growers as well,” Palmer said.

But there is a reason rebels in part because of fears the administration of President Barack Obama has been deeply reluctant to throw its weight behind them. The relatively moderate rebel factions fighting in Syria are in tatters. There are no secular groups, and the strongest factions are Islamic groups, many of which work with al-Qaida’s official branch in Syria, the Nusra Front. The Nusra Front, which has somewhat dropped from international headlines because of the Islamic State group’s exceeding brutality, is on the U.S. list of terrorist groups and is still very active. It and other rebels recently seized the Quneitra border crossing between Syria and the Israeli-held Golan Heights, taking 45 United Nations peacekeepers hostage. It was also among a group of militants that recently overran a Lebanese border town and is holding several Lebanese soldiers and policemen captive.

the weapons would only end up in extremists’ hands. Last year, the U.S. threatened to bomb Assad’s forces following a deadly chemical weapons attack last year blamed on his government. It backed away at the last minute. Though he had to give up his chemical weapons stockpile, an emboldened Assad made significant advances against outgunned rebels in key areas, particularly around the capital, Damascus. A senior Obama administration official said Thursday that the U.S. wanted to establish a credible ground force in Syria by training more moderate rebels before taking military action there. The U.S. signaled back in June that it hopes to enlist moderate Syrian opposition fighters in the battle against militant extremists. Obama sent Congress a $500 million request for a Pentagonrun program that would significantly expand previous covert
efforts to support rebels. Still, such a program faces the same questions hanging over U.S. policy the past three years — how to distinguish “moderate” rebels from others in an increasingly radical landscape and how to ensure weapons only reach those groups. Airstrikes alone would likely do little to truly defeat the Islamic State if there is no force on the ground to seize territory as the radicals retreat. Western leaders have categorically rejected the notion of partnering up with Assad, whom they accuse of committing war crimes on his own people. So that means greater coordination with rebel factions. “Unless such groups are able to capitalize on any airstrikes against the Islamic State in Syria, the Syrian armed forces may be able to fill the vacuum,” said Torbjorn Soltvedt, a senior analyst at the British risk analysis firm Maplecroft.

Battle for control Congress’ task: Act fast on spending of Senate intensifies Shortened session faces a tight list of must-do decisions
Campaign is tight and unpredictable, strategists say By Charles Babington The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Labor Day week ought to start clarifying the partisan battle to control the Senate, but if anything, the picture just got muddier and the map bigger. An afterthought all year, conservative Kansas is suddenly abuzz. An independent candidate drove the Democrat from the race and positioned himself to consolidate discontent with three-term Republican Sen. Pat Roberts. Washington-based GOP strategists are rushing to help Roberts, who’s accused of sleepwalking through the race in the deeply Republican state. If Kansas brought welcome news to Democrats, Alaska did not. First-term Sen. Mark Begich initially was seen as running a smart campaign with excellent TV ads. But he endured withering criticism for a new type of ad, which he clumsily scrambled to remove from the airwaves. The ad alluded to a sensational Alaska crime and accused the Republican nominee, Dan Sullivan, of being soft on criminals. Sullivan was state attorney general at the time, but he had nothing to do with the prison sentence in question. Critics denounced the ad, the crime victims’ relatives demanded its removal, and Begich’s image suddenly went from savvy campaigner to truthshaving attacker. Democrats acknowledge that it hurt Begich, who’s running in a state that President Barack Obama lost by double digits in 2008 and 2012. “But it hasn’t shifted the dynamic that Dan Sullivan is still going to be held accountable for his record,” which includes appointments to two

state posts and being born outside Alaska, unlike Begich, said Democratic strategist Ty Matsdorf. For all the noise in Alaska and Kansas, the overall Senate campaign landscape is as tight and unpredictable as before, strategists of both parties say. “It’s within the margin of error almost everywhere,” said Republican consultant Mike McKenna, who has conducted recent surveys in several pivotal states. In terms of gaining new seats, he said, “Republicans can go plus three, or plus 10. It’s too close to call.” Nearly all candidates are struggling, McKenna said. “The Republican brand has been in trouble a long time,” he said, thanks to a government shutdown and other steps that raised questions about Republicans’ ability to govern. Yet Obama is damaging the “Democratic brand,” McKenna said, by being indecisive on problems such as the racial tension in Ferguson, Miss., and Islamic extremists’ in Syria. Republicans need six net seats to gain the Senate majority. They are heavily favored to win three where Democratic senators are retiring: West Virginia, South Dakota and Montana. The most promising targets elsewhere are the four Democrats seeking re-election in states Obama lost, mostly by big margins: Arkansas, Louisiana, Alaska and North Carolina.
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., alluding to it in a campaign ad. Committee hearings and briefings from administration officials will be part of the September agenda, starting Tuesday when Obama plans to welcome the four bipartisan congressional leaders to the Oval Office for a meeting. During the week of Sept. 15, Secretary of State John Kerry is set to testify before Congress about the Islamic threat. That same week, administration policies will receive further scrutiny as a special House committee investigating the deadly 2012 attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, holds its first public hearing. The high-profile session will focus on whether the State Department has put in place recommendations for improving security at U.S. embassies and diplomatic outposts worldwide. With an eye toward the midterm elections, House Republicans have scheduled a vote this coming week on a resolution that condemns Obama for failing to notify Congress in advance about the May swap of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, held prisoner in Afghanistan for five years, for five Taliban leaders. Congressional investigators said last month that the admin-
istration broke the law with the deal. The administration has defended the swap and its decision to keep Congress in the dark, saying concern about Bergdahl’s health and safety required speedy action. Faced with fast-moving crises overseas, leading Democrats and Republicans have called for the U.S. to arm Ukraine as it struggles with Russian aggression, but it is unclear whether Congress will act. The House has scheduled just 12 days in Washington. The Senate plans to stay until Sept. 23. House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, who told the rank and file that the agenda will be “brief, but busy,” said lawmakers will vote on legislation that will “paint a stark contrast” with the Democrats who control the White House and Senate. House votes are planned on health care, energy and the economy in political messaging ahead of the Nov. 4 election when the GOP hopes to increase its majority. In the Senate, Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., is determined to spare his most vulnerable Democrats from Arkansas, Alaska, North Carolina and Louisiana from tough votes and give them plenty of political fodder for the fall campaign.

ell, we may not have Tesla. And Longmire might have been canceled. But, hey, New Mexico, we still have Hatch chile. And golden parachutes. On Thursday, Tesla Motors honcho Elon Musk announced that his electric car company will build its $5 billion battery “gigafactory” that promises to employ 6,500 workers outside of Reno, Nev. The decision means New Mexico joins three other states (California, Arizona and Texas) that lost out in the bidding war to win the contract. I should use the word win advisedly since it was revealed Nevada will cough up as much as $1.25 billion in tax Rob incentives to claim Nikolewski victory in what some have called the “Tesla Commentary Bake-Off.” That package of state largesse is unprecedented in its size and scope. But it would be churlish — and economically wrongheaded — to say it was a good thing for Tesla to pass over New Mexico. The state’s economy badly needs a boost. “The state has never needed economicbased jobs as bad as they need them right now,” Albuquerque economic development expert Mark Lautman told me just a few days before Musk gave the nod to Nevada. “We’ve got cancer. Our economic base is contracting and … we [need to] do something bold and strategic right now.” But it was really no surprise that Nevada won this five-state, high-stakes poker match. Northern Nevada is just over the state line — a direct shot — from Telsa’s auto plant in Fremont, Calif. Plus, Nevada has no state income tax and a right-to-work law already in place. The Tesla batteries will be made from lithium, and the only lithium mine in the U.S. is located just outside of Reno. Throughout the process, Musk was intentionally cryptic whenever taking about selecting a site. That was a smart move, because it almost certainly prompted Gov. Jerry Brown of California to enter the sweepstakes. That no doubt forced Nevada and the other states to make more enticing offers. Politically, Gov. Susana Martinez will take a hit. Her supporters will say that’s unfair, and there’s some truth to that. Opponents from the left criticized the Martinez administration from opposite angles: You’re not doing enough, cried Senate Democrats while, just a few days before the Tesla decision, a group of liberal social welfare organizations chastised states in contention for potentially giving away the store. But that all comes with the job in the zero-sum game of politics. If the equation were reversed, Republicans would be howling, too. The Tesla announcement came just days after A&E unexpectedly pulled the plug on Longmire — an excellent TV show that, while set in Wyoming, is filmed in the Santa Fe area. Why? In part because its ratings in the 18-49 demographic were low. Sorry, New Mexico, you’re too old, baby. Meanwhile, one of the big news stories of the summer was a variation on a familiar New Mexico theme. Outgoing Albuquerque Public Schools Superintendent Winston Brooks became the latest in a conga line of public sector executives to receive golden parachutes. In fairness, APS defended the $350,000 buyout by saying the district could have been on the hook for $600,000. But an investigation that led to Brooks’ resignation has been kept secret, even though his buyout is paid with taxpayer dollars. A number of news outlets (including mine) and the New Mexico Foundation for Open Government have filed requests under the Inspection of Public Records Act to get some details, but have been thus far rebuffed. It’s a familiar story. Earlier this year, the outgoing president at Santa Fe Community College received $500,000 to go away. In October 2012, Barbara Couture left New Mexico State University after receiving a $453,000 agreement. State Rep. Bill Rehm, R-Albuquerque, who wants to eliminate golden parachutes from state contracts, estimated recent payouts totaling $4.2 million in taxpayer money — not including the $500,000 payout at SFCC. Yes, it has been a bummer summer. You can contact Rob Nikolewski at the website he edits, www.newmexico watchdog.org.

Parents, do better T he girl shooter’s first name wasn’t given in The Associated Press’ account (“Girl’s family devastated by Uzi accident,” Sept. 3) of the killing of a shooting instructor. She was 9. The family’s lawyer said, “Her family prayed day and night that instructor Charles Vacca would survive the Uzi accident.” He didn’t. This is what you gave us to take away today: She’s not guilty of causing death because the Uzi hurt her little shoulder and … the instructor did not care to protect her from the pain of shooting the gun. Nor did her father. Or mother. Parents! Love your children better than that.

Protect the Arctic As the article (“Wilderness Act hits 50-year milestone,” Sept. 3) mentioned, 50 years have passed since President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Wilderness Act into law. The same tug-of-war between development and preservation exists to this day. Yet, while the threats increase, the land available to preserve is finite. On the 50th anniversary of the Wilderness Act, Congress should decide to get the job done. A place to start would be with iconic ecosystems such as the Arctic National Wildlife. The Arctic Refuge’s Coastal Plain, known as the biological heart of the refuge, provides crucial habitat for some of our most beloved species of wildlife, including caribou and polar bears. Its very existence remains under threat from outside interests that want to plunder it. To honor the anniversary, I ask U.S. Rep. Ben Ray Luján to co-sponsor the Udall-Eisenhower Arctic Wilderness Act to designate this amazing place as wilderness. Liz VanDenzen

Fighting the union Before Christus merged with St. Vincent Regional Medical Center, the administration was not friendly to the nurses’ union. But since Christus came in, it seems to me the company is bound and determined to rid the hospital and this community of the union. And for good reason. The union is the only thing keeping this hospital accountable. Christus doesn’t like that, and it appears that its shameful advertising campaign is its way of gaining community support. I support the nurses. Remember, they are negotiating for ethical staffing, for the community and for patient care. Lenny Tischler

River cleanup For more than a decade, the Santa Fe Watershed Association and Michael Smith have walked sometimes convergent, sometimes divergent paths in their efforts to heal the Santa Fe River. Smith and association founder Paige Grant met as she was setting up the Adopt-the-River program and wanted to pull in this energetic person who had taken on cleaning up a particularly trashedout section of the Santa Fe River just because he thought somebody ought to do it. Smith soon joined the board of the watershed association and continued to work on picking up trash, thinning invasive trees and planting native riparian vegetation with the Adopt-the-River program. Smith has since moved upstream and left the association, but through his continuing commitment to the little rito that is the heart of Santa Fe,

What is happening in and to our City of Holy Faith? I am appalled that the Santa Fe City Council agreed to help bring in the television show The Bachelor to our beloved city — paying as much as $100,000 to this vile program, hoping for an increase in tourism. If these are the kind of tourists we want, perhaps the council should reconsider the caliber of individual we desire to visit our community. I wish the mayor and City Council would sit down together and watch an episode of the show. They might seek a different way to increase tourism. I was born and raised in this city.

Tesla loss New Mexico landing the Tesla battery plant was always a long shot. Nevada, a five-hour drive from Tesla’s headquarters and expanding assembly plant, always had the advantage, other than the home state of California. The real tragedy is the lack of an economic backup plan. Hundreds of millions of dollars available for this project are 2010 federal stimulus funds that go away in 2016. There is a complete lack of planning by the governor and her team in advancing our state. Raymond Berger

SFCC needs to move on Thank you for your fine editorial supporting Santa Fe Community College (“SFCC getting back to basics,” Our View, Aug. 27) as it moves forward in the face of financial challenges. Your editorial was wise, nuanced and appreciative of the work of SFCC in our community. I have been involved in academics for many years and was involved as the faculty committee succeeded in unseating a divisive president of a seminary in Denver. It is messy business, yet it is the board’s fiduciary responsibility, even if the process is cantankerous and distressing. Recriminations and vengeful legal tactics do no good. The board member who resigned will not be reinstated, neither will the dismissed president. Andrea Bermúdez, who reported the ostensible oversight of the board in matters of the Open Meetings Act, was a member of the board at the time and equally liable for the oversight. SFCC needs to move on to the business at hand. Moving on is the only way forward. Richard Valantasis

huck McCutcheon is a former colleague of mine. We worked together at the Albuquerque Journal North in the 1980s. In fact, we’re more than former colleagues. We’ve stayed in touch through the years, and even though he’s lived in Washington, D.C., for more than a decade, we see each other frequently, so I guess we’re outright cronies. But I won’t call him “my good friend.” That’s because in Dog Whistles, WalkBacks & Washington Handshakes, the new book McCutcheon coauthored with David Mark, they define “my good friend” as “politician-speak for somebody they often can’t stand.” In speeches in Congress, Steve Terrell McCutcheon and Roundhouse Mark say, “usually it’s Roundup a thinly veiled way of showing contempt for the other lawmaker while adhering to congressional rules of decorum.” This book, subtitled “Decoding the Jargon, Slang, and Bluster of American Political Speech,” is an excellent field guide to the double-talk and weasel words that anyone following the world of politics has to wade through every day. Both McCutcheon and Mark have done way more than their share of wading through it for many years. McCutcheon is co-author of the National Journal’s Almanac of American Politics and co-editor of CQ’s Politics in America 2010. He’s authored several other books, including Nuclear Reactions: The Politics of Opening a Radioactive Waste Disposal Site, (2002), which deals with the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant in Carlsbad. Mark is editorin-chief of the political website Politix, a former senior editor at Politico and the author of a previous book called Going Dirty: The Art of Negative Campaigning. In their introduction to Dog Whistles, published last week by ForeEdge Books, McCutcheon and Mark note that the murkiness of political talk is nothing new. They quote George Orwell’s 1946 essay, “Politics and the English Language,” in which Orwell said political language “is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.” The book points out classic phrases used by politicians in trouble. They often describe any controversy as a “distraction from the real issues.” But if the “distraction” won’t go away, the politician sometimes has to express “deep regret,” which the authors call a “classic form of nonapology apology.” A timely chapter in the book deals with stock election rhetoric such as: “The most important election of our lifetime” (which people from both parties frequently use to try to pump up support); “The only poll that matters is the one on election day” (inevitably uttered by the candidate who is losing in the latest opinion poll); “This campaign is about the future” (an attempt to make a candidate seem forward-thinking); and “politics ain’t beanbag” (an expression, which dates back to 1895, directed at politicians who complain about unfair treatment by opponents or reporters.) Many of the entries in Dog Whistles deal with politicians’ interactions with journalists. For instance, there’s one on “gotcha journalism,” which the authors describe as, “what politicians frequently accuse reporters of doing when they are doing their jobs of trying to uncover information. … Candidates and their staffs often suggest that journalists are engaged in gotcha journalism if they move from the agreed-upon topic of the interview and switch to an embarrassing subject that was thought to be out-of-bounds.” And then there’s “the question we should be asking.” That’s a rhetorical device politicians use to avoid answering a question a reporter asks them. There is an entry on a word that has been a favorite of Gov. Susana Martinez and former Gov. Bill Richardson: bold. The authors say it’s a “politician’s most common description of their own or their party’s proposals.” I was griping about the overuse of this word in this column back in 2011 when I made my own bold proposal: “Nobody is allowed to use the B-word anymore unless you’re singing about Wyatt Earp.” Contact Steve Terrell at sterrell@sfnewmexican.com.

Wilderness is essential
I
n the United States of America of today, where no issue is exempt from use as a partisan bludgeon — resulting in a government that can’t function — it is almost painful to look back and see how much the president and Congress accomplished 50 years ago. This month marks the 50th anniversary of the passage of the Wilderness Act, a federal law held especially dear in New Mexico because it protects the wild places we cherish. The act’s roots are here, in the passion of conservationist Aldo Leopold for the wild. Then an employee of the U.S. Forest Service, in 1924, Leopold persuaded his bosses to designate 750,000 acres of the Gila National Forest as the world’s first wilderness. Despite that promising start, broader action was still four decades in the future (the final law went through 18 hearings and 66 drafts). In 1964, the Wilderness Act passed the Senate with a vote of 73-12 and the House with but one dissenting vote. President Lyndon Johnson signed the law on Sept. 3, 1964. New Mexico’s connection to the act grew even deeper after that signing, with the Gila and Pecos Wilderness areas among the first protected. Over the 50 years of the law, Congress has set aside millions of acres of designated wilderness. Until recently, support for the wild came from both sides of the aisle. Recently, Congress has done almost nothing to protect wilderness. It’s another example of a government that can’t seem to accomplish much. The 112th Congress had no wilderness protected, and the 113th only one area (Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes in Michigan). Why is wilderness so essential? Wilderness provides the highest level of protection for public land, an action that is not always without controversy. After all, chain saws, motorcycles or mountain bikes are not welcome in true wilderness. Movement to preserve wilderness is almost stalled — precious land in New Mexico had to be protected using the Antiquities Act, with the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument and the Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks National Monument emerging as a result. Despite being an early adapter, only about 2 percent of New Mexico lands are federally protected as wilderness. That’s the smallest proportion of any Western state. Still awaiting action from Congress is the ColumbineHondo Wilderness Act (S. 776/H.R. 1683), a designation that would protect some 45,000 acres of land in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Its protection has been discussed for some 30 years. Such designation ensures survival of species, protects water and perhaps most importantly, provides a quiet place for humans to be alone minus noise or modern distractions. We need wilderness more than the wilderness needs us. In a state where jobs are lagging, the wilderness remains a precious resource that also is an essential economic engine. Protected wild places support New Mexico’s outdoor recreation economy to the tune of $6.1 billion in consumer spending in New Mexico, 68,000 New Mexico jobs and $1.7 billion in wages and salaries, according to the Outdoor Industry Association. Nationally, the outdoor recreation economy produces $646 billion in activity annually, helping sustain 6 million jobs. The wilderness, of course, is the legacy we will leave long after we are gone. Writing in Orion magazine in a special issue dedicated to wilderness, Terry Tempest William had this to say: “The legacy of the Wilderness Act is a legacy of care. It is the act of loving beyond ourselves, beyond our own species, beyond our own time. To honor wild lands and wild lives that we may never see, much less understand, is to acknowledge the world does not revolve around us. The Wilderness Act is an act of respect that protects the land and ourselves from our own annihilation.” On this 50th anniversary, Congress should remember the wisdom of legislators and presidents who came before. Before it is too late, we must set aside additional wild areas as places of refuge for the future. We owe that much to our children and grandchildren.
The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican Sept. 7, 1914: Roswell — The need of a state reformatory for young girls has been pointed out as the result of the arrest here of two young girls on the charges of street walking and their commitment to the county jail for 30 days by the court. The girls are only 12 and 15 years of age, and have given the city police worry for several months. A letter has been written the reformatory school at Denver, asking if they would take the girls if the expenses were paid and a movement is on foot to raise sufficient funds to pay the girls’ transportation up there and place them in the school. The jailer says that the girls are more trouble as prisoners than any they ever had in charge. Sept. 7, 1989: In what police called a “pre-Fiesta blowup,” a truckload of marijuana, cocaine, heroin and drug paraphernalia was destroyed in a huge explosion Wednesday afternoon at a county dump north of Nambé. Using 22 sticks of dynamite and 150 pounds of the explosive ammonium nitrate, Santa Fe police destroyed drugs, needles, pipes, scales and other contraband confiscated in the last three years. The drugs destroyed were evidence in about 100 felony cases and 175 misdemeanor cases. The street value of the drugs was said to be more than $1.5 million.
COMMENTARY: JOSHUA KEATING
Figuring out Islamic State no easy task WASHINGTON t’s a little hard to figure out the Islamic State’s strategy following its second videotaped execution of an American citizen in less than a month. Over the last two years, the group has shown impressive strategic acumen, growing into the world’s wealthiest terrorist group and something close to a viable theocratic state. It has achieved those aims via a strategy of gaining and consolidating control within Iraq and Syria — two of the world’s most unstable states — while, unlike al-Qaida, avoiding action that would provoke a major U.S. response. Why is it now carrying out very public killings that seem designed to provoke an escalation of U.S. military involvement in Iraq and maybe even in Syria? The fate of al-Qaida over the last 13 years doesn’t seem like a wise model to follow. But here are a few possible explanations for what the group is thinking.
I
They feel cornered. The Islamic State accomplished quite a bit in 2013 and the first half of 2014, including taking over nearly a third of Syria and the city of Fallujah in Iraq. Most remarkably, it managed to do this in such a way that both the Syrian and U.S. governments largely left it alone. It’s interesting to ponder what might have happened if the group had stopped conquering territory after Fallujah and simply focused on consolidating its rule over the areas it already controlled and enforcing Sharia law. If that were the case, it’s possible that there might be a de facto, relatively stable Islamist state between Iraq and Syria right now. But a group that proclaims itself a caliphate can’t really stop expanding, and it couldn’t stay under the radar forever. The fall of Mosul was one tipping point, leading the United States and Iran to up their assistance to the Iraqi government and muscle out the problematic Nouri alMaliki. Last month’s encroachment into Kurdistan and the potential massacre of
Yazidis on Mount Sinjar was another one, pushing the reluctant Obama administration to finally launch airstrikes. At that point, with the bombs already dropping, the Islamic State may have calculated that there was nothing more to be gained from avoiding a confrontation with the United States, and struck back with one of the most politically powerful weapons in their arsenal.
They don’t think the U.S. will act. The Islamic State can read polls, too. They know how reluctant Americans have been to see the country involved in another Middle East entanglement. This administration has been extremely hesitant to increase American involvement in Iraq and even more reluctant to get involved in Syria. A president who tells the press that “we don’t have a strategy yet” for the Islamic State certainly doesn’t sound like one who’s in a rush to go to war.
They think this is working. Terrorist groups thrive on attention, and the James Foley killing has done more to make the group a household name than any of its other actions. Beyond media attention, we don’t know what impact the killing had on international recruitment. ISIS is an extremely media-savvy organization that has sustained itself on its ability to recruit fighters from abroad, including from Europe and the United States. If the group’s leaders believe these killings further that goal, they may keep at it, despite the possible consequences on other fronts.
They’re upping the price. We all know that the U.S. government has a policy of not negotiating with terrorists (except when it does). The Islamic State apparently asked for $132 million for Foley, which, to put it bluntly, does not sound like the demand of a group that plans to release its hostage. That amount is more than al-Qaida affiliates earned in
total from ransoming dozens of European hostages over the past five years. By contrast, the Islamic State is reportedly asking for $6.6 million for a 26-yearold American woman in custody, which sounds like a figure you might quote if you’re actually looking to make a deal. Is there any chance of this? The Obama administration would lose all credibility if it paid a ransom at this point. But Jabhat al-Nusra’s recent release of American writer Peter Theo Curtis may have demonstrated an alternative plan. U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power apparently introduced Curtis’ family to emissaries from Qatar, who negotiated with the al-Qaida-linked group for his release. (We still don’t know the terms of that deal.) The Islamic State, which has released European hostages in the past, may be wondering if third-party intermediaries might make a similar deal for the Americans it still has in custody. It also seems significant that the group is apparently now threatening a British citizen in its custody. The British government also doesn’t pay ransoms to terrorist groups, but perhaps the Islamic State is testing how steadfast the Brits are in adherence to that policy.
This was the plan all along. It may not seem very logical from the outside for the Islamic State to provoke the United States into open warfare. But while the group’s tactics have differed form al-Qaida’s thus far, it shares its former patron’s antipathy to America’s presence in the Middle East and now may feel it’s acquired enough territory, money, weapons and manpower to pursue a time-honored strategy of provoking the U.S. into military overreach. This seems like hubris, but that, too, is not exactly unprecedented. Joshua Keating is a staff writer at Slate focusing on international news, social science and related topics.

COMMENTARY: MICHAEL MUHAMMAD KNIGHT
A Western jihadi gives insight into mindset
T
he Islamic State just released a gruesome new beheading video, again helmed by a Western-bred jihadist. As often happens, I received messages asking for explanation. You see, I’m the jihadi who never was. Twenty years ago, I ditched my Catholic high school in upstate New York to study at a Saudi-funded madrassa in Pakistan. A fresh convert, I jumped at the chance to live at a mosque and study the Quran all day. This was in the mid-1990s, during an escalation of the Chechen resistance against Russian rule. After class, we’d turn on the television and watch feeds of destruction and suffering. The videos were upsetting. So upsetting that soon I found myself thinking about abandoning my religious education to pick up a gun and fight for Chechen freedom. It wasn’t a verse I’d read in our Quran study circles that made me want to fight, but rather my American values. I had grown up in the Reagan ’80s. I learned from G.I. Joe cartoons to (in the words of the theme song) “fight for freedom, wherever there’s trouble.” I assumed that individuals had the right — and the duty — to intervene anywhere on the planet where they perceived threats to freedom, justice and equality. For me, wanting to go to Chechnya wasn’t reducible to my “Muslim rage” or “hatred for the West.” This may be hard to believe, but I thought about the war in terms of compassion. Like so

many Americans moved by their love of country to serve in the armed forces, I yearned to fight oppression and protect the safety and dignity of others. I believed that this world was in bad shape. I placed my faith in somewhat magical solutions claiming that the world could be fixed by a renewal of authentic Islam and a truly Islamic system of government. But I also believed that working toward justice was more valuable than my own life. Eventually, I decided to stay in Islamabad. And the people who eventually convinced me not to fight weren’t the kinds of Muslims propped up in the media as liberal, West-friendly reformers. They were deeply conservative; some would call them “intolerant.” In the same learning environment in which I was told that my non-Muslim mother would burn in eternal hellfire, I was also told that I could achieve more good in the world as a scholar than as a soldier, and that I should strive to be more than a body in a ditch. These traditionalists reminded me of Muhammad’s statement that the ink of scholars was holier than the blood of martyrs. The media often draw a clear line between our imagined categories of “good” and “bad” Muslims. My brothers in Pakistan would have made that division much more complicated than some could imagine. These men whom I perceived as superheroes of piety, speaking to me as the authorized voice of the tradition itself, said that violence was not the best that I could offer.
Some kids in my situation seem to have received different advice. It’s easy to assume that religious people, particularly Muslims, simply do things because their religions tell them to. But when I think about my impulse at age 17 to run away and become a fighter for the Chechen rebels, I consider more than religious factors. My imagined scenario of liberating Chechnya and turning it into an Islamic state was a purely American fantasy, grounded in American ideals and values. Whenever I hear of an American who flies across the globe to throw himself into freedom struggles that are not his own, I think, What a very, very American thing to do. And that’s the problem. We are raised to love violence and view military conquest as a benevolent act. The American kid who wants to intervene in another nation’s civil war owes his worldview as much to American exceptionalism as to jihadist interpretations of scripture. I grew up in a country that glorifies military sacrifice and feels entitled to rebuild other societies according to its own vision. I internalized these values before ever thinking about religion. Before I even knew what a Muslim was, let alone concepts such as “jihad” or an “Islamic state,” my American life had taught me that that’s what brave men do.

Patient care comes first at St. Vincent
Operas remain true to sources
I
am surprised that Duane W. Roller, a “historian and archaeologist,” should immerse himself in generalizations when criticizing The Santa Fe Opera (“Operas straying off course,” My View, Aug. 31). He did not do his history homework as his comment on Mozart’s The Impresario reveals. Mozart intended this piece as a brief afterdinner entertainment for the guests of Joseph II, at the emperor’s request. Busy with The Marriage of Figaro at the time, he hastily composed The Impresario with just an overture, two arias, a trio and a finale. The spoken comedy was intended to be local and topical, and as such would make no sense to a 21st-century audience. So, typically, succeeding productions have always updated the comic dialogue to appeal to audiences of their time. Singers have always chosen other Mozart arias to show off their talents and to lengthen the piece. The idea of the double bill was to contrast the everyday lives of artists in The Impresario with their transformation, providing “sublime artistic experience,” in Stravinsky’s ethereal Le Rossignol. Both pieces — and this may seem ironic to Roller — are about the healing power of art. As to Fidelio — it is grossly unfair to lump The Santa Fe Opera with “house managers who are more interested in the bottom line than artistic integrity.” A Nazi setting of Fidelio was more likely to drive people from than to the box office. On another historical note: Beethoven wrote about a political prisoner of his time during the Napoleonic wars — a scenario that contemporary audiences do not easily identify with, whereas setting the opera in a Nazi concentration camp does ring bells we cannot ignore. This is our history and we take it personally, which is what director Stephen Wadsworth intended. This setting did touch nerves, but most people were able to focus on the music and the superb job Wadsworth did of interpreting and presenting all the characters, making the audience think about the injustices still done to political prisoners today. Roller also seemed to miss the connection between Wadsworth as the director of Fidelio who also directed the magnificent Seattle Ring, which Roller clearly enjoyed. Greer Grimsley as the evil prison governor was booed, not for his performance, but for the character he portrayed. This is the melodrama side of opera and of strong audience reaction. It means they got it, though I, too, would have preferred applause for Grimsley, an outstanding singer/actor. Changing opera scenarios must be done with integrity, and The Santa Fe Opera goes to extraordinary lengths to ensure this is what happens. It has nothing to do with the bottom line.

hile on my journey to become a physician in critical care, pulmonary medicine and interventional bronchoscopy, I was determined to develop a level of skill and talent that would ensure the safest patient outcomes so that my patients could live productive lives after suffering serious illness. I arrived in Santa Fe three years ago. From day one, I was determined to surround myself with teams of health professionals that shared a similar commitment to successful clinical outcomes. I can attest that in our intensive care unit, taking care of our patients is our only priority, and it takes a whole team of nurses, support staff, doctors and administrators to make it reality. The ICU team has put systems in place based on evidence-based medicine and best medical practices. The ICU is staffed with a criticalcare doctor 24/7. Additionally, we ensure only the most competent doctors and nurses deliver care to our critically ill patients. We maintain the appropriate nurse-to-patient staffing. To further nurse education, we hired a full-time criticalcare nurse educator. We encouraged and helped the staff in becoming part of their national professional criticalcare societies and embraced their professional development. We grew a culture of accountability and transparency. We formed a criticalcare “Process Improvement” team that is led by a physician working side by side with our nurses and doctors. These initiatives have resulted in outcomes such as reduced mortality from predicted mortality 21 percent based on severity of illness to actual mortality of 8 percent on average. These efforts have improved safety for our patients. As a member of this community, and this hospital, I am proud of my colleagues — the
nurses, staff, doctors and administrators. So it hurts to hear someone say our patients “are at risk,” because simTarek ply, it’s not Dammad true. These are challenging times in health care, and we are facing a shortage of competent health care professionals, decreasing reimbursements, and increased performance and quality expectations. This perfect storm means hospitals and health care providers need to collaborate and align for one purpose: better patient care. The new health care environment nationwide demands all of us to change the way we deliver care while ensuring the best possible outcomes. It requires us to be more competent, flexible, efficient and collaborative than we have ever been. For the last three years, I have witnessed and experienced these positive changes at Christus St. Vincent. Our data across the board support these words. And while we are still far from perfect, I can assure you that our community hospital is making important strides and initiatives toward achieving best patient care possible. It is time for all of us who work in health care to come together and make every effort possible to enrich our medical knowledge, practice the best evidence-based medicine and quality delivery so we can be ready for this bumpy but enjoyable road of health care reform. Dr. Tarek Dammad is medical director of critical care services at Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center, a pulmonary and critical care attending physician and qualified in advanced diagnostic and therapeutic bronchoscopy.

Pot vote right policy but needed to be on ballot Santa Feans should be proud. Four years ago, voters passed changes to the city charter making it easier for citizens to write and change their own laws. Somewhat surprisingly, in a city known as the political bumper sticker capital of the world, no one had taken the initiative to exercise this direct democratic power. Until now. Last month, Santa Fe’s City Council took the historic step of approving a citizen-written ordinance to decriminalize possession of small amounts of marijuana. Once again, Santa Fe is setting a bold agenda for the rest of the state to follow. Like any new law, there may be some hiccups in the implementation process, but the new ordinance — supported by more than 10,000 signatories — not only moves misdemeanor marijuana possession out of the city’s criminal code, it also makes enforcement of the new ordinance a lowest law enforcement priority. Mayor Javier Gonzales and Chief Eric Garcia have the opportunity to take action by issuing new guidelines for Santa Fe Police Department officers — perhaps through executive orders or internal police department directives, absent exigent circumstances, to follow the new civil ordinance over harsher state statutes. The council’s vote was historic for defining the City Different as a leader in national and state drug policy reform;

but the council missed another opportunity with equally important democratic implications. By adopting the ordinance outright, the council sidestepped the opportunity to give voters a direct voice at the Patrick ballot box on this issue. Davis Every two years, elected leaders bemoan the city’s abysmal voter participation rate — just 30 percent of eligible voters cast a ballot in the recent mayoral race. Just 1 in 5 eligible voters even showed up in the largest southside district. By contrast, more people signed petitions for a vote on marijuana penalties than did for all mayoral candidates combined. Voters who have never cast a vote in a city election registered to vote just to be eligible to have their voice heard by City Hall this November, the general election. (City elections take place in the spring.) In meeting after meeting, City Council chambers are full of many of the same faces and far too few of the generally disconnected voters our elected officials seek to engage. I sat in one of those council meetings a few weeks back as councilors rushed to approve $50,000 to lure a reality TV show to Santa Fe. Exposing the world to this amazing city was reason
enough to part with that sum of taxpayer dollars. While that may be a worthy cause, it is disappointing that the suggestion of spending an equal or slightly larger amount to expose the city’s own citizens to the democratic process was not worth the price for too many councilors. To be clear, I love our capital city, and our organization will continue to advocate for progressive policies that make the lives of New Mexicans better. Where we can, we’ll partner with amazing advocates like Drug Policy Action and champions like those we’ve come to know and love on the council and across City Hall through fights on marriage equality, fair elections and preventing gun violence. Today, I congratulate Santa Fe on a win for people and practical policies that make lives better. But I’m sad that the City Different passed on the opportunity to welcome new voices to the City Hall conversations setting the future for this town. No matter how the marijuana penalties election had gone in November, everyone could have called it a win if the city could count more local voters among those who have the final say in City Hall. Patrick Davis is the executive director of ProgressNow New Mexico, a nonprofit progressive advocacy organization supported by more than 100,000 members statewide.
eads up to all potential patients (and that is all of us) of Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center: Let’s keep the facts simple and get down to basics. Our nurses of our hospital are asking for safe staffing levels. Why? So they can provide safe, timely and superior care to the patients. Not “adequate” but superior. Can’t have superior? OK, let’s settle for “above average.” Do you want less? More nurses on the floor means more nursing attention for all, which can only result in patients’ needs being met in a safe and timely manner. If the administrators are truly concerned about healthy patient outcomes as well as patient satisfaction, they will listen and appropriately respond to the patient advocates, who happen to be … nurses! Who interfaces with patients 24 hours a day, every day of the year? Nurses. Who is responsible for assessing, monitoring, treating, educating, comforting, anticipating, planning,
documenting, communicating and coordinating the patients’ needs? Nurses. Who knows best that the patient care can and should be better, but simply cannot be achieved because the staff levels are too low? Nurses. Who goes home after a “12-hour” (If only!) shift, wishing they could have done more for their patients? Nurses. Who will tend to us when we are sick, injured, dying or in our most vulnerable condition? Nurses. We cannot let the constant babble from the top-heavy administration distort the facts and distract our attention from the basic issue. Nurses are asking for safer, better staffing levels in order to provide safer, better care for us. Instead of settling for less, they are asking to raise the bar. Who needs our support? Nurses. Patty Bodelson is a retired registered nurse. She’s a Santa Fe native who wants safe, superior care for hospital patients.

Udall’s record on labs is a good one
Hospital no longer a community partner
T
he recent column (“Udall promotes lab at expense of New Mexico,” My View, Aug. 17) where Greg Mello criticized Sen. Tom Udall’s campaign ad has me scratching my head. The author claimed that the labs at Sandia and Los Alamos were “economically sterile” and “politically damaging.” Basically, Mello’s point is that the national labs and military bases in our state support nuclear weapons, militarism and other undesirable things and distract us from “addressing the state’s real issues.” Certainly one can criticize the development of nuclear weapons and use of military power. One can also maintain that the state is not adequately confronting its issues. One can also be concerned about the state’s heavy reliance on federal government funding of all sorts. However, to claim that these facilities do nothing to support the state’s economy is ridiculous. All one needs to do is
ask what would happen to Los Alamos and north-central New Mexico if the lab there closed. Mello claimed that the Los Alamos lab did nothing to create “selfsustaining” jobs in New Mexico. What about the thousands of people working in Los Alamos’ retail and service businesses, area private contractors or local governments? As the sad situation in Questa and the numerous ghost towns around the state shows, nothing is forever. Take away a community’s principal source of wealth and no job is “self-sustaining” other than perhaps farming. He said, “As lab spending rose over three decades, the state’s relative income rank fell dramatically.” So? Mello is confused in thinking that the Los Alamos lab somehow controls the economic destiny of the state. Los Alamos sits in a county with one of the highest per capita incomes in the nation. In fact, the state
would have done even worse if the Los Alamos and Sandia labs and the military bases had closed. The fact is that attracting federal government tax money does create economic development and jobs. Whenever anything brings into the state more wealth than it sends out it generates economic development — be it the arts, storing of nuclear waste, extraction of minerals, wine making, clean energy, more Medicaid funds for health care, or be it national labs and military bases. So, Sen. Udall is well justified in supporting the federal government installations in New Mexico. He is doing what he can to support the state’s economy. Jim Lodes, prior to retirement, had more than 35 years of experience in commercial lending, small-business development and regional planning. He has a master’s degree in city and regional planning.
I
write this with some anger and also with sadness at what is happening at Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center. First of all, I want to let you know that I am an operating room nurse who retired from St. Vincent Hospital in 2010 after 45 years of a wonderful career there. I started at the old St. Vincent as an aide, became an operating room scrub technician (on-the-job training) and with much encouragement from many of our “old” surgeons, nuns and staff, I was accepted (with an educational leave of absence) into the nursing program that was started at the College of Santa Fe in 1973. My blessed career was from 1965 to 2010. During the final years of life for both my father and mother, I was able to care for them with a flexible schedule approved by my operating room director and manager, and with help from the staff covering much of my “call schedule.” This was “family.” When we first heard of a Christus/St. Vincent possible merger, we started hearing horror stories from traveling staff and other staff people who had worked previously under a Christus group. We talked about it and were worried that this merger would possibly be a change for the worse, but we agreed that maybe with the company’s financial assistance, some problems could be improved and that we should all work at helping toward these goals. The changes were almost immediate. Many administrative and managerial positions were immediately replaced with out-of-town personnel. I worked the 3-11 shift and did
not meet our new “boss” until about two months later when I walked in one day and he was at the front desk. I took it upon myself to walk up to him and introduce myself. Since day one we felt as if they did not want to get to know anyone personally in order to not put a face to the position that could possibly be “eliminated.” So many of my hospital family that I meet up with tell me that I retired at such a good time because it is so unpleasant to work there now. I personally witnessed in December 2012 to January 2013 the staff frustration at trying to provide quality care with the low staffing ratios. The nursing assistants did the best they could with an assignment of 20 patients. My 93-year-old uncle was there for two weeks, and we had family with him constantly because of this situation. He received two baths the entire time he was there. I want to reiterate that the staff did their utmost with what they had. It saddens me so much when I hear employees say that they walk into work with a “pit in their stomachs,” not knowing what faces them each day. The biggest problem today is that Christus has bought out almost every medical facility in Santa Fe, which leaves few employment opportunities. Workers either have to go out of Santa Fe to find a lowerwage job or retire. Christus came into our town with a corporate mentality that has ruined our once-wonderful community hospital. Annabelle Silva is a native New Mexican who retired in 2010 after 45 years of employment at St. Vincent’s Hospital.

Remember the passenger pigeon C R ecently, the 100th anniversary of the extinction of the last passenger pigeon came and went. Martha and her kind died 100 years ago. The Financial Times dedicated a full page to its disappearance. The newspaper was generous in its coverage in the way that American papers have not been, perhaps to deflect the enormous guilt Americans should feel about the loss of creation’s biggest flock of birds ever to fly over the human species. They would blacken the sky in a marvel of flight that would last untold hours and then fade away. Some say there were billions. But they ate grasses and seeds, competing with farmers who shot them mercilessly until they interrupted the skies no more. Nothing of that magnitude will ever fly in the sky again. A new sky has dawned in the human conscience. One without the wonder we had a century ago. The crucial issue the paper raised is that this date of her passing in 1914 and with her, her entire species, not only coincided with World War I but with the potential for an entire wave of extinction on this planet. The Financial Times says the significance of Martha’s passing was more significant than World War I because that war mostly impacted the human species. However, the loss of Martha and what we are doing to the natural world impacts Genesis, creation and the entire firmament of Earth. Could not a semblance of

that population have been saved? Today, 100 years later, the destruction continues — 100,000 elephants were destroyed over the last three years. Another six years and the elephant could enter the wasteland of extinction. Yet, we continue to add to the human species without thought. People indulge in children as if they were candy not thinking that if they don’t fight to preserve what’s left of the so-called wild, their children won’t need to go to school. They will have nothing to look forward to. Not bears, not wolves nor the bugling of elk. Children will have to adapt to a world where they are the only living, breathing lifeforms. To prevent this, the Endangered Species Act should be strengthened, not diluted. Most of human activity on Earth does not foster life. Globalization was
lauded as a promise. Trade was always around, we are told. But not the systematic leveling of life, liberty and even the potential for happiness with 8 billion people coming our way. All the investments we engage in, all the wealth the 1 percent make, all the development schemes, all the rockets aimed at the stars, all our algorithms, calculated for profit and so-called progress cannot put together the Humpty Dumpty of creation again. The business community and the cybernetic confabulators of today should gauge very carefully what we are bringing to the next generation. Lysander, our 8-year-old, witnessed the super moon a few weeks ago. He said, “We landed on the moon, but we have not yet landed on Earth.” We lost the passenger pigeon and the great auk and the stellar sea cow and the dodo and most of our forests. It is a worldwide crisis. But’s let’s not lose the rest. All our manufactured products, all our cultural artifacts, even symphony orchestras, all our spent time on the fashionable and the fatuous and the frivolous are not worth their weight in Genesis, never mind gold. We have this decade to get our priorities straight. Santa Feans Cyril Christo, his wife Marie and their son Lysander are working on a new book on Africa and a feature documentary, Walking Thunder — The Last Stand of the African Elephant.
hristus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center is a great hospital with a great team. If you’ve read the paper or been clued in at all to our community’s events the past several weeks, it would be difficult to miss the discussion around nursing at our local hospital. I am writing today as a concerned citizen of Santa Fe and a father of two children. Both of my boys were born at Christus St. Vincent, and my wife and I have been treated there many times. It has always puzzled me why it is so easy for our community to bag on our hospital. I’ll be honest, I don’t get it. I was born in Chicago’s Cook County hospital; it doesn’t happen there. My youngest son cracked his chin earlier this year, and we landed in Bromenn Hospital in Bloomington, Ill. It doesn’t happen there. Why do we do it in Santa Fe, where life is so beautiful and we love so many things? I prefer not to address the labor negotiations between our hospital and our union other than to say it’s complicated, and I hold both in high respect and equally do not envy anyone involved in the negotiation process. What I feel needs to be heard about our hospital is the care my family
has received throughout our lives here. Christus St. Vincent delivered both of our healthy boys to my wife Jason and I, kept Couillard my youngest healthy through an infant respiratory issue and even pulled a Lego out of his nose a few years later. In our experiences, we were shown empathy, professionalism, love, and given confidence through our times of need and weakness. I encourage anyone with a different experience or opinion to contact the hospital and let them know. Even in times of new federal health laws and radical changes in our health care landscape, there’s a lot of new and exciting stuff going on over there. I hear they would be humbled to provide a tour, and their doors are always open, 24/7, 365 days a year. Jason Couillard is the proud father of two boys, chief financial officer of Kokopelli Property Management and treasurer of Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center’s foundation. He and his wife, Kerri, have lived in Santa Fe since 2004.

Work requirement for SNAP is bad fit for New Mexico
O
n behalf of Catholic Charities, I would like to share a letter to Human Services Department Cabinet Secretary Sidonie Squier: This letter is to express the deep concern of Catholic Charities (in the Archdiocese of Santa Fe) for the Human Services Department’s plan to reinstate the required participation in work, work activities or community service for the receipt of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Catholic Charities Board of Director’s Executive Committee has
taken official action to endorse the expression of opposition raised by the New Mexico Conference of Catholic Bishops in regards to re-implementing this requirement. We also endorse the New Mexico Center on Law and Poverty opposition and their calling for dialogue and discussion. Make no mistake, Catholic Charities strongly believes that there is dignity in work and that everyone should be encouraged to participate in work. The reality is that New Mexico’s economy has not yet recovered or
offers sufficient opportunity for all to work at this time, nor should nutrition benefits be used as a negative consequence or punishment. If the state of New Mexico and the Human Services Department seek to encourage and motivate persons/ families receiving SNAP benefits to engage in meaningful work and/or vocational training, then it should not look to “forced labor” but rather positive reinforcements and consequences for recipients of such benefits. In our state, we can simply look to the many
enhancements of our national parks, construction of public buildings and art works of the Depression-era programs to see that when work with dignity is offered to people, it is eagerly accepted. Such work has created many lasting benefits and much pride in our society. We do not need to hold a carton of milk just out of reach of an unemployed receiver of nutritional benefits; rather we need to offer them real opportunities that lift them out of poverty. Individuals and families struggling in our community should not be
devalued when they seek assistance from our public institutions. They should feel the acknowledgement of their dignity and the receipt of respect. We ask the department to postpone its implementation of the work requirement and enter into earnest discussions of how to promote opportunity and advancement out of reliance on public assistance. Jim Gannon is CEO/executive director of Catholic Charities for the Archdiocese of Santa Fe.

Hamas and Israel: Journalists should take a hard look
M
ichael Oren, former Israeli ambassador to the U.S. and former CNN Middle East analyst, has expressed the feelings of most people that the displacement, injury and death of civilians in war is always tragic. Recent fighting between Hamas and Israel in Gaza is no exception. Hamas employs a primitive military tactic of indiscriminate firing of rockets and suicide bombing to kill people, disrupt life, impair the economy and leave psychological scars, and a sophisticated media campaign to threaten Israel’s basic security. Hamas can count on the media to conduct that offensive. In theory, as a sovereign nation, Israel has a right of selfdefense. However, I believe the U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon and Secretary of State John Kerry believe Israel ought to be prevented from exercising its right. This is in contrast to the position of the European Union Foreign Affairs Council, which reinforced its designation of Hamas as a terrorist organization and decried the use of civilians as human shields. Even Al-Jazeera host Faisal al-Qassem of the news program The Opposite Direction asked, “Why don’t we learn from the Israeli army, which tries, through great efforts, to avoid shelling areas populated by civilians in Lebanon and Palestine?” In comparing the Syrian army and Hamas, he asked, “Why doesn’t the Syrian army respect the premises of schools, mosques, hospitals or inhabited neighborhoods?” The difference is that Israel uses bomb shelters and anti-rocket batteries to protect Israeli citizens, while Hamas uses Gaza citizens to defend its rockets. Despite the fighting and security situation, Israel continues providing water, electricity, humanitarian aid and medical treatment to thousand of Palestinian adults and children. In September 2013, Israel transferred 1,244 truckloads of construction material to Gaza. If Hamas used the $1.25 billion of material to actually help instead of using it to build 1,371 underground tunnels, using children to dig the tunnels — resulting in hundreds being killed — under hospitals, mosques, schools and homes used by Hamas terrorists to attack, murder and kidnap Israeli citizens, they could have built two hospitals, 20 schools, three housing developments and three malls. Instead of investing in education, health care and building Gaza’s future, Hamas has wasted billion of dollars on rockets and tunnels. The people of Gaza could have been given hope. Instead, Hamas brought them destruction. Rather than depicting a complex reality in which Israelis and Palestinians are victims of Hamas, too much of the media prefer to make it West vs. East or Goliath vs. David. Former President Bill Clinton recently stated that Hamas “has a strategy designed to force Israel to kill their own [Palestian] civilians so the rest of the world will condemn them.” Hamas accomplishes this in the media. Journalists must take a hard look at the way they cover this conflict. They must not allow themselves to act as accessories to Hamas’ murderous strategy that delegitimizes Israel and ends up prolonging this suffering for both people.

For 50 years, conservation fund improves world
A
s Santa Fe business operators, we can’t help but notice that nearly everyone who lives in or visits Santa Fe values the availability of outdoor activities, our stunning vistas and the protected public lands that foster these. This month is the Land and Water Conservation Fund’s 50th anniversary, as President Lyndon B. Johnson signed it into law on Sept. 3, 1964, with then Interior Secretary Stewart Udall at his side. It has been a conservation and economic engine for our state and nation ever since. The Land and Water Conservation Fund was created so that some of the royalties from the depletion of two natural resources — offshore oil and gas — could be used to support the conservation of our land and water. These funds help to acquire important lands to add to our national parks, forests, wildlife refuges and important historic sites. It also provides funds for state parks and neighborhood recreation facilities such as ballfields, tennis courts and rec centers our children and families use every day. In and around Santa Fe, these funds have been used for the purchase and/ or enhancement of the Santa Fe Watershed, Hyde Memorial State Park, Fort
Marcy Recreation Complex, Valles Caldera National Preserve, Ragle Park, Alto Park, Bandelier National Monument and areas within the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument. Sadly, we have rarely had the opportunity to use the conservation fund to its full potential, as Congress regularly diverts funds to other nonrelated purposes. As a result, the Land and Water Conservation Fund has only been fully funded twice in its 50-year history. Thankfully, in New Mexico, we have strong champions for it in our congressional delegation. Sens. Tom Udall and Martin Heinrich and Reps. Ben Ray Luján and Michelle Lujan Grisham have all taken strong stands in support of full funding for the Land and Water Conservation Fund. In July, Interior Secretary Sally Jewell was in New Mexico to announce the fund had helped to acquire the lands necessary to create the 570-acre Valle de Oro National Wildlife Refuge near Albuquerque. On the day of the announcement, she was joined by hundreds of dignitaries, schoolchildren and others to celebrate the establishment of the first urban wildlife refuge in the American Southwest.

Clearly, the Land and Water Conservation Fund has had a huge impact on our community and quality of life. Since 1964, New Mexico has received more than $230 million from the fund. But the total economic benefit has been greater, as this direct expenditure is multiplied as funds circulate locally. In fact, a recent study found that for every $1 invested in federal land acquisition through the fund, $4 in benefits accrue in state and local communities. Projects the fund helps to complete add to our quality of life and make
Northern New Mexico an attractive place to visit and live; this benefits our tourism industry, and attracts talented workers and retirees to relocate here. This is also why you should join us in urging our elected officials to continue supporting the Land and Water Conservation Fund. Fortunately, Jewell has called on Congress to fully and permanently fund this program, and President Barack Obama’s recent budget calls for full funding of the program at $900 million starting in 2015. We thank and continue to encourage Sens. Udall and Heinrich and Reps. Luján and Lujan Grisham to keep fighting to reauthorize the Land and Water Conservation Fund and secure its permanent funding. For 50 years, this program has been protecting places that preserve our heritage and improve our quality of life. Let’s make sure the fund continues to provide our communities with these benefits for generations to come.

In La Bajada case, County Commission’s moves are baffling
R
egarding the Santa Fe County Commission’s efforts in the proposed La Bajada mine, the commission’s commitment to public opinion and fair play is commendable. Listening to an unending litany of negative concerns without voicing value judgments showed commissioners’ commitment to that part of the democratic process. Allowing a 13-year-old boy to speak and implore them to see through the façade of the applicants’ arguments and to do the right and honorable thing for constituents was generous. Understanding that they were under no obligation, legal or otherwise, to
approve the project remains of the utmost importance. Causing undue stress and concern to thousands of people by not making a timely, honest and sound decision was unnecessary and unreasonable. Respect is a necessary component in dealing successfully with others. Many of us felt that Commissioner Robert Anaya’s disrespect of the governors of our neighboring pueblos was inappropriate and a direct affront to them. Telling the public to return after an hour lunch break to hear the commission’s promised decision and then extending the process while people patiently waited in their seats was con-
fusing and unsettling. Apparently, the applicants were informed prior to the public meeting, since they were not present for the promised announcement of the decision. The decision was not given. The public was then informed that a written executive order would appear at some undisclosed time in the future, which provoked disdain and lack of confidence. (Now we are told there might be a moratorium on development, delaying a final decision into next year.) Overwhelming and pertinent public input on an issue that affects thousands should be taken seriously into consideration by the County Commission. Unresolved information has not
been submitted by the applicants. This includes having the necessary water rights required for mining operations as evidenced by the state engineer, sole unencumbered mineral rights, remediation issues, water budgets, road upgrades and maintenance, local-vs.-out-of-county sales affecting tax revenues, dust and particulate control and others. For all these reasons, we fail to see why commissioners do not reject the mine application. Russell J. Bennett-Cumming and his wife, Pam, are retired and building their final adobe house on a mesa with astounding views, including La Bajada mesa.

Motley mix of animals with their owners dress up for long-running youth event By Uriel J. Garcia The New Mexican
O
n a cloudy Saturday morning, young children surrounded Joshua Torres’ 3-yearold goat to pet her just outside the New Mexico School for the Arts on East Alameda Street. Dressed in a pink outfit and wearing a tiara, Rosa had just completed the annual Pet Parade, also known as Desfile de los Niños. Rosa was among dozens of pets that were accompanied by their owners, some of whom also dressed up in costumes. Among the animals spotted at the event were chickens, rabbits, a python and ferret, which were paraded for about a mile and a half. The event started at the downtown arts school, at
the corner of East Alameda and Paseo de Peralta. Participants paraded down Palace Avenue, Grant Avenue and Marcy Street, and eventually circled back to the school. The Pet Parade has been a part of the city’s annual Fiesta de Santa Fe since the 1920s, according to the Santa Fe Fiesta Council’s website. “About 2,000 children in costumes participate in the parade, with thousands of supporters and tourists looking on,” the website says. Rosa’s owner, Torres, said this was the first year he and his children had participated in the parade. It seemed that Rosa “had fun,” he said, “but she was wary of the dogs.”

birth suite near Holy Cross Hospital. When it closed Aug. 13, the birth center had 29 clients expecting children and was providing postpartum services to 10 more. The organization served about 50 to 60 clients each year. Those clients were among the disproportionate number of Taos County residents to give birth outside a hospital. Data from the New Mexico Department of Health indicate births at the center and home births are more common in Taos County than in most of the counties across New Mexico. “There is a long history of excellence that we will continue,” Bone said.
The way ancient societies handled crises can hold lessons for today’s leaders and communities, says archaeologist Jerry Sabloff, president of the Santa Fe Institute. Sabloff will discuss contributions archaeology has made to other fields, such as forensics, and how the past can inform the future during free Ulam Lecture series talks Tuesday and Wednesday at the Jerry Sabloff James A. Little Theater. His lectures stem from his book Archaeology Matters (Left Coast Press, 2008). Sabloff, an expert in the ancient Mayan civilization, will look at the nature of archaeology in the first lecture. “It is often misunderstood,” he said. The techniques used by archaeologists and their findings are relevant to modern concerns, he said. Sabloff

New partnership revives Taos birth center Deal with Taos Health Systems puts facility on Maestas Road By Andy Oxford The Taos News
TAOS — The Northern New Mexico Birth Center is taking another breath. The 33-year-old organization in Taos, which closed its doors in August amid what midwives there described as an untenable financial situation, announced a new partnership with Taos Health Systems last week. Under the arrangement, the Taos Women’s
Health Institute will lease and move into the birth center on Maestas Road, assuming responsibility for all patient care at the facility. The birth center’s board of directors will remain intact, according to Michael Bone, executive director of physician practices at Taos Health Systems. “They will retain control of the building with their goal being to ensure that an out-of-hospital and out-of-home birth option exists in our community, and that this center follows the standards of the American Association of Birth Centers,” he said. The organization’s closure briefly brought an end to Taos County’s only birth center, although Taos Homebirth and Midwifery is considering opening a
As educational institutions go, the Santa Fe Council on International Relations may be the most nontraditional one in town. Its backbone is people 50 and older who have an abiding interest in world events. The late author David Halberstam, who often lectured on what he called “the culture of celebrity,” would have liked the 500 or so members of the organization. Halberstam’s theme was that what’s important often receives little attention because Americans have become obsessed with actors, models and other celebrities. “We know so much about so little and so little about so much,” he said. Nonpartisan and nonprofit, the Santa Fe Council on International Relations was founded in 1965 and has kept its focus on the big-picture issues that could have consequences in every American household. The organization’s lecture series this fall is a lead-in to its 50th anniversary. All the speakers coming to town have expertise on the the crisis in Ukraine and were part of history.

Aug. 31. According to a report filed by Taos Police Department officers, Martínez then allegedly entered a gallery where he attempted to open a wrapped painting worth approximately $900. The gallery’s owner, Emily Benoist Ruffin, asked Martínez to leave several times, but witnesses told police he did not appear to understand her.
One officer called to the scene reported finding Martínez walking around the gallery’s courtyard, picking up flagstones, according to the report. When an officer asked what he was doing, the man said he was “picking up and taking care of things.” During the investigation, Martínez “seemed happy and spoke about seeing Bigfoot just out-

MARIPOSA, Calif. — An evacuation order for 300 homes near Yosemite National Park remained in effect Saturday as firefighters battled a wildfire scorching about 300 acres in Central California. CalFire reported that firefighters have contained about 25 percent of the blaze. The fire broke out Friday afternoon. An additional 400 homes are being advised to evacuate. No damage has been reported. One minor injury was reported, but CalFire didn’t provide details. Officials said firefighters have been hampered by the steep terrain in the area and the dry conditions brought on by California’s drought. The area is about 15 miles southwest of Yosemite. Officials reopened a portion of state Route 49 that leads into the park that had been closed. There were also no reports on any effects on the park. Later Friday, a second blaze broke out 15 miles to the south in the community of Oakhurst. Nearly 300 alert calls telling residents to evacuate were sent out, the Mariposa County Sheriff’s Department said, but they were canceled when the blaze’s progress was stopped at 5 acres. Meanwhile, in far northern California, a blaze that broke out four weeks ago grew to almost 130 square miles.

GUNTHER ARON 2/16/23 - 8/27/14 You may have met him in the check out line, or in a parking lot. He would have struck up a friendly conversation, admired your dog or child and perhaps asked you where you were from. He would have parted with a smile and "Have a good day". He was Gunther Aron: a sculptor who created handsome one of a kind Hanukah Menorahs as well as fine hand crafted jewelry. Gunther was born in Germany, fled to England at the start of WW II and later came to the United States. He attended the Institute of Design in Chicago and while selling his jewelry at Chicago’s Old Town Art Fair, he met his future wife, Geraldine Nelson. In 1968 the Arons purchased the Old School House in Lamy, New Mexico and moved there permanently in 1973. Because of the large space it was there that Gunther created some of his finest Menorahs. In 1988, the Arons moved to Santa Fe where, because of a much smaller space, he once again began to make jewelry, mainly pendants of silver and turquoise. Gunther’s work was recently represented in the Chicago’s Bauhaus Legacy Show at the Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art in Chicago and is in many museum and private collections throughout the U.S and elsewhere. His cremains will be scattered in a quiet place along with those of five of our beloved dogs. No memorial is planned. Donations in his memory may be sent to any of our local animal sanctuaries or shelters. RUTH N. PENNYCOOK Santa Fe resident, Ruth N. Pennycook, died peacefully at her home on August 27th.

She said Molina’s cellphone search is still being investigated by the department’s Internal Affairs unit. But she declined to comment on whether the search was considered constitutional.

Pet: Newcomers among regulars in parade Continued from Page C-1 He said his children love Rosa and wanted to bring the goat out to enjoy herself. Dan Guevara also participated in the event for the first time this year. He brought his black mixed-breed dog. The dog didn’t dress up for the event, but Guevara, 48, donned his Star Wars Darth Vader costume. He said he wanted to match his dog’s color. “This is the best part of Fiestas,” Guevara said of the parade. “And I just wanted to come out and bring the dog and make the kids laugh.” Kevin Britt, who recently moved back to Santa Fe this past year from Iowa, said the event was among the things he “missed a lot from Santa Fe.” He attended the parade with his 4-year-old stepdaughter, Crista Britt, and brought along his 180-pound English MastiffRottweiler mix. Amy Perez, whose father is a retired Santa Fe police officer, said she has been attending Desfile de los Niños since she was a child because her dad would often patrol the parade. “It’s exciting coming out here and seeing all the unusual pets,” said Perez, who attended with her 7-month-old German shepherd, Zena. The dog was excited to see so many other dogs around her, Perez said. Jeannette Kelly pushed a shopping cart full of chickens along the parade route. Kelly, who has participated in the event for the past four years, said her chickens have become part of the family. The parade “is fun and we love seeing everyone showing love to their pets,” she said. David Rodriquez, 10, dressed as Zozobra, with a white painted

these challenges,” he said. The problems facing the Mayan leaders weren’t new. “But what I’ll argue is the Maya leadership used old ways of solving the issues, not realizing things had changed to point the old methods exacerbated the problems.” Lessons from A.D. 800 don’t apply directly to situations faced by leaders today, but there are enough similarities that hint at what modern leaders might do. “I’m a firm believer in the lessons of history,” Sabloff said.

Laundress: Munoz not ready for retirement Continued from Page C-1 low laundry workers pitched in to hire a mariachi band whose brass horns and twangy guitar notes filled La Terreza, an outdoor terrace on the hotel’s third floor. Everyone from the handyman to the hotel’s chairwoman, Jennifer Kimball, attended the gathering. Munoz sat in the middle of the large room, stealing bites of potatoes au gratin or salad when people weren’t hugging her or shaking her hand. She wore a formal black blouse, black slacks and a pair of black shoes for the occasion. Her mother, daughter and a sister joined her. At one point, John Rickey, the hotel’s general manager, called her forward. She walked to the front of the room as a large screen behind her flashed pictures of her and her co-workers. “I was 14 when she started here,” Rickey said, as he gave a wooden plaque recognizing her dedication and many years of service. “Forty years is a long time. Things don’t last 40 years anymore.” Rickey then offered her a chance to speak. Munoz smiled demurely and declined. She seemed slightly amused by all the fuss.

How Insights from Archaeology Might Help Shape Our Future Despite its popularity, archaeology’s public perception is not as accurate as it could be. Archaeologists do not have their collective heads immersed in the past, as is often supposed, but are very much concerned with both the present and future, too.

Cemetery near Texas mall may hold slave remains Land used to belong to second-largest plantation in state By St. John Barned-Smith Houston Chronicle
LAKE JACKSON, Texas — The small cemetery is tucked away in a copse of trees at the northeastern tip of the Brazos Mall. Concrete crosses are scattered about the site, and tombstones once piled at the base of the plot’s thick live oak are kept in a secure place. Documents identified the cemetery as Mount Zion, linking it to a church that was active in the 1940s. The church, which sat just east across Texas 288, has long since been torn down and covered by suburban housing. As new construction just a few feet outside the cemetery’s boundaries began recently, archaeologists found something intriguing: pre-Civil War remains of a person they believe may have been a slave from one of the county’s biggest sugar plantations, as well as evidence of several other unmarked graves. Local historians and residents now are re-examining the origins of the cemetery site, which, like much of the area, sits on land that was once part of a well-known plantation owned by Abner Jackson, a Virginian who moved to Texas in the mid1800s. Some have concluded the cemetery is the resting ground for slaves who worked Jackson’s plantation, and not their churchgoing descendants from a century later, as had originally been believed. Virtually no artifacts were found with the remains — no clothes, no coffin. Archaeologists hired by Brazos Mall management to monitor construction did find a handmade, square nail of the sort that they guessed to have been used in the 1800s. But they think the lack of clothes, which experts say might have been too valuable to bury when others could wear them, could be a clue in and of itself. They also point to the placement of the grave, in a small strip of unusable land by a creek near the plantation’s slave quarters, as another clue. A few yards away, archaeologists found more bone fragments, just below the surface, and evidence of two other “grave shafts,” holding bodies buried deeper in the ground. Such cemeteries were common around Texas, which had more than 182,000 slaves by the outset of the Civil War, said Gene Preuss, a history professor at the University of HoustonDowntown. And sometimes, he said, a slave was buried with little fanfare, often without clothing. “People who were servants, who were enslaved, kind of had to do things as they were allowed,” he told the Houston Chronicle. “If they didn’t have the resources to give someone the burial they would have wanted, they would have just buried them the way they could.” For decades, the cemetery has been referred to as being part of the Mount Zion Church, according to Harold Gaul, president of the Texas Historical Cemetery Guardianship Association, a

Brazoria County-based group that tries to document and preserve historical cemeteries. As Gaul explains it, some people believed the bodies at the cemetery near the mall were once interred near the church. “That’s one theory, but so much is coming out, we don’t know the real story,” he said. Mall officials, along with Johnney Pollan, an archaeologist with the Texas Archeological Society, said they believe they’ve come up with another possibility: a second cemetery lost for decades, which has been rediscovered. “It’s not beyond reason to think slaves died and were buried on the property,” Pollan said. He said a 1943 Army Corps
of Engineers map strengthens that theory. That map shows a cemetery next to Mount Zion Church, as well as a cemetery at the tip of what is now the Brazos Mall. That cemetery could have held the remains of slaves from the Jackson Plantation, he said. After the church was torn down and the gravestones from its cemetery were dumped in the plot by the Brazos Mall, he thinks locals and historians could have come to imagine the two as one, he said. Records label the mall’s cemetery as Mount Zion Cemetery. Local historians think the people who named it mistook it for the cemetery near Mount Zion Church.

investigated,” he said. “You can track who owned it, but not necessarily who lived there.” When the Jackson Plantation was thriving, it was part of a regional economy that was powered by the work of slaves. Jackson grew sugar, corn and cotton on the plantation, which housed more than 200 slaves, Pollan said. During the plantation’s heyday, Jackson was the second largest slave owner in Texas. But despite his success, his fortune soon crumbled. He died in 1861. After the Civil War, Texas officials used the plantation as a prison facility for several decades, forcing convicts to work the land. A private company bought it and ran the plantation until about 1905, when a storm destroyed much of the machinery used to process sugar, Pollan said. A business-

man then bought it and ran cattle on the property, before it was finally sold and developed. Patty Sayes, general manager of the Brazos Mall, said her hope was to landscape the area around the recently discovered graves, fence off the area and erect a marker detailing the recent findings. “They were such a critical part of our society and our history — the plantations wouldn’t have functioned without them,” Sayes said. “They may not have been revered in their day, but we plan to honor and revere them.” Preuss, the history professor, said the discovery and others like it are an important part of the town’s true history. “When we find discoveries like this … it helps remind us there are a lot of holes in the fabric of history,” he said.

Arizona man dies in N.M. rollover WAGON MOUND — New Mexico State Police say an Arizona man died when the vehicle he was riding in overturned on an interstate. Authorities say a Ford pickup truck heading northbound on Interstate 25 about 8 miles north of Wagon Mound rolled over Thursday. They say the pickup somehow entered the median and overturned six times. Police say 68-year-old Oscar Brown was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver, 67-year-old Vivian Brown, also of Arizona, was airlifted to a hospital in Santa Fe and is listed in critical condition. The accident remains under investigation but officials say driver inattention may have been a factor.
“My guess is, over time, people literally forgot where the cemetery was,” Pollan said. The existence of the cemetery surprised some. Mall officials, the site caretakers, said it was kept hidden by the wall of trees so that vandals wouldn’t desecrate the property. The dumped gravestones are safeguarded in the mall’s offices. “I didn’t have any idea anything was back there until they showed me that map,” said 71-year-old Adrian Tracy. Tracy, who has lived in the area since he was a child, remembers exploring Mount Zion Church in the early ’50s. He’d found it deserted, ramshackled and covered in soot after someone had tried to burn it down. He was aware of the area’s history of slavery, he said, recalling listening to stories from an elderly woman born on the plantation just a few years before the conclusion of the Civil War. Robert Rule, executive director of the Lake Jackson Historical Association, said the conundrum was not uncommon, given the area’s history. “Anywhere around here, there could be graves,” he said. “It’s one of those things. … It wasn’t all recorded. They’re making their best guess.” Despite the findings, questions still remain about the Lake Jackson-area population before and after the plantation era, he said. “The reason we know so much about the Lake Jackson Plantation is because it was

Kid’s take on movies ‘What If’ By Raven D., 17 KIDS FIRST! critic
I really enjoyed this film. I wasn’t sure if I’d like it, but the plot is wonderful, the cast is amazing and the story is very touching and funny. The cinematography is great. I especially love the fact that there are some whimsical elements added to the visuals to help tell the story. Chantry is an animator, and occasionally her drawings come to life in the movie, adding a really cool multimedia element to the film. My favorite character is Chantry played by Zoe Kazan. Chantry is a very fun character, and Kazan is perfect for the role. I am a big fan of Zoe Kazan and love her work in Ruby Sparks and The Pretty One. She never fails to entertain me. One thing I love about Chantry is that even though you can tell she starts to grow romantic feelings for Wallace, she never crosses the boundaries from platonic to romantic while she’s in another relationship, which is very cool. I’ve seen a lot of films where two friends have feelings for each other, and they act on it even though one of them is in a relationship with someone else. In this film, it is stated many times that Wallace and Chantry are very against cheating, especially since Wallace’s ex cheated on him. I really admire that even though these characters are fictional, they still have solid moral standards. Daniel Radcliffe also does a wonderful job in this film. His character, Wallace, is very witty and cynical, adding a lot of comic relief to more intense interactions. He works wonderfully with Kazan and you can really see the chemistry between their characters. Daniel also pairs perfectly with Adam Driver, who plays his best friend, Allan. The two of them make a hilarious combo and any scene with them together is sure to make you laugh. What If is a heartfelt, genuine, feel-good film that I really enjoyed. It is definitely geared more toward adults, and I believe 20-year-olds will probably enjoy it the most. My mom loved it and was even brought to tears because it is so sweet. However, I love it as well, so I recommend it for ages 15 to 18. I give it 5 out of 5 stars, so make sure you don’t miss this gem in theaters now.
being too big for one’s britches, being seen and not heard went into the dustbin. The boundary that once separated adult and child cultures served the purpose of causing children to look up to adults, to aspire to become adults. Since 1970, the average age of successful male emancipation has risen nearly seven years. Think there might be some connection? And then there’s “Because I said so.” That’s bad, too. Odd, because adults who do not accept the authority behind “because I said so” from their employers, government and certain people in uniform will pay a penalty. Accepting legitimate authority (in the short term at least) is a good thing. It maintains civilization. We are all better off for it. Likewise, obedient children are much happier and more emotionally sturdy than disobedient children. So says the best research. And make no mistake: Obedient children are not an accident of biology. Their parents are not lucky. By definition, the obedient child does not do what his parents tell him to do because they give him good reasons. He does what they tell him to do because they tell him to do it. There is really nothing new under the sun.
Parents happy to turn t kids’ craze over c game toward books
Building better readers with ‘Minecraft’ By Hillel Italie The Associated Press
NEW YORK ike millions of parents, Aaron Sacharow welcomes those moments when his son — 7-year-old Tyler — takes a break from video games and picks up a book instead. He will even settle for the book being a guide to Minecraft, a game that’s sold more than 50 million copies since it was originally released in 2011. “I don’t want to say it tricks them into reading,” says Sacharow, an IT project manager based in Miramar, Fla. “But there are books kids are reading for schools and books that they hopefully like in their free time. And if Minecraft books are a motivation to read, that’s a good thing, right? At the very least, they’re developing skills, reading skills.” Since last November, Minecraft has spun off into one of publishing’s most successful franchises with a series of compact, illustrated books, priced under $10. Three authorized guides — Minecraft: Essential Handbook, Minecraft: Redstone Handbook and Minecraft: Construction Handbook — have already sold more than 6 million copies combined, through a combination of store sales and purchases made through clubs and school fairs, according to Scholastic Inc. The publisher plans Minecraft: Combat Handbook for late September and a boxed set for October. “We first heard from kids themselves about Minecraft, and we started watching a lot of YouTube videos to see what the buzz was about,” said Debra Dorfman, Scholastic’s vice president and publisher for licensing. “Kids, parents and teachers were all saying Minecraft was good for you. Kids are given free rein to play, build and watch YouTube videos of other people playing. Teachers were talking about the educational aspects of creative thinking, geometry, geology and problem solving so parents were agreeing to let them play for hours at a time.” Kira Porton, store manager of A Children’s Place Bookstore in Portland, Ore., says the guides could well become as popular as such top-selling series as The Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Percy Jackson. Knowing little about Minecraft herself, she had initially ordered just a few copies of the guides and found herself repeatedly asking for more. “They’re in the process of just exploding,” Porton says. “What’s amazing is that

we usually have to personally recommend books for them to sell that well. These books just fly off the shelf without our having to say anything.” Minecraft is set in a procedurally generated blocky world whose trees, terrain and bodies of water can be mined for resources to build things like shelters, tools and armor to protect players from the zombies, skeletons and creepers who come out at night. The calculatedly simple mix of survival gameplay and Lego-like digital construction has captured the imagination of players who’ve recreated landmarks like Walt Disney World, the White House and Westeros from Game of Thrones across the game’s sprawling virtual landscape. The minimalist indie game was originally released by creator Markus “Notch” Persson almost three years ago and went on to become a phenomenon. The game, which costs $6.99 for an app and $26.95 for the current PC version, has earned honors from the Independent Games Festival and the Game Developers Choice Awards. Besides the Scholastic guides, Minecraft also has inspired at least 10 self-published novels and hundreds of fan-fiction stories. A senior editor for books at Amazon.com, Chris Schluep notes that other game-related releases have succeeded. Last year, The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia was a surprise best-seller (published, fittingly, by Dark Horse Books). He also cited books tied to Halo and World of Warcraft. “They’re immersive worlds,” Schluep says. “People throw around terms like transmedia and ecosystem, and this is a situation where it really works, where people really want to know about more about it and go into other media.” At the Brandywine Wallace Elementary School in Pennsylvania, second-grade teacher Elizabeth H. Madarang learned of the Minecraft games because her students kept referring to them in their weekly writing reports. Earlier this year, she ordered the first Minecraft manual offered by Scholastic. Her students have since formed a book club. “I definitely see Minecraft manuals encouraging students to read,” Madarang says. “Not only are they reading text, they are studying and analyzing the manuals. They use critical reading and analytical skills then apply their new learning to their Minecraft games.”

El mitote WGN’s Manhattan, which was filmed in Santa Fe, received a lot of praise from TV critics, but critical success doesn’t guarantee solid ratings. The show, which focuses on the personal drama and turmoil associated with constructing the atomic bomb in Los Alamos, does seem to be struggling. According to Nielsen numbers on TVseriesfinale.com, the season premiere snagged 904,000 viewers, a promising but unimpressive start. Those ratings plummeted by nearly 63 percent the following week, when the show drew only 339,000 viewers. Most recently, the drama caught the attention of only 295,000 viewers. Manhattan stars John Benjamin Hickey, Olivia Williams, Rachel Brosnahan, Ashley Zukerman and David Harbour. uuu

The Founding Mothers Abigail Adams was the wife of John Adams. She would become The First Lady in 1797. In a letter to her husband in 1776, she urged him to “remember the ladies” with the warning, “If particular care and attention is not paid to the ladies, we are determined to (cause) a rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any laws in which we have no voice or representation.”

Stefani nervous about working with husband
Louisiana festival drops Cee Lo Green from lineup
NEW YORK — Gwen Stefani says she was nervous about working with one person in particular when she started on The Voice as a panelist: her husband. Gavin Rossdale was the “coach” brought in to give advice to members of Stefani’s team of aspiring singers on the NBC music competition show, which starts its new season on Sept. 22. Rossdale was the lead singer of the British rock band Bush. “It was just awkward,” she said. “We’ve only collaborated on making babies.” There are three of those, the latest born this spring. Stefani, a solo artist and lead singer of the band No Doubt, said that not only had she and Rossdale never worked together on a music project, they weren’t even fans of each other’s music before getting to know each other. Stefani, 44, said she worried what would happen if they fought about what advice to give a particular contestant. But she said it didn’t happen. “It was just so fun,” she said. “It was right at the beginning of the show and I was just getting my feet wet, so having him there was kind of rad.” Stefani has been married to Rossdale since 2002.
GRETNA, La. — Cee Lo Green has been dropped as the headline act of an annual music festival following his brush with the law. The singer, rapper and producer was scheduled to headline the Gretna Heritage Festival in Gretna, La. Green pleaded no contest last week to one felony count of furnishing ecstasy to a woman. He was sentenced to probation and community service. The Times-Picayune reports Green’s subsequent comments via Twitter prompted festival organizers to drop him.

NAPLES, Italy — La dolce vita is all the sweeter when you get it for free. La dolce vita, of course, means “the sweet life” in Italian, something you will find plenty of in Italy’s third-largest city. Naples gets a bad rap for crime and grime, and it’s true the city does have some gritty edges. But there’s plenty to enjoy here: amazing pizza, impressive architecture, a rich and carefully preserved history — all set on the turquoise curve of the Bay of Naples. Here are five ways to get a slice of Neopolitan life for free.
Roam the Duomo From the outside, Naples Cathedral, or the Duomo di Napoli, isn’t that impressive. But inside you’ll find a gilded panoply of sculptures and frescoes. The highlight is the Royal Chapel of the Treasure of San Gennaro, to your right as you enter, which has a wealth of statues and other art beneath an ornate ceiling. Via Duomo, 149; MondaySaturday, 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 4:30 to 7 p.m.; Sundays and holidays from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 5 to 7 p.m.
Celebrate Christmas in July, or whenever Not far from the Duomo you’ll find Christmas Alley, real name Via San Gregorio Armeno. This is a narrow alley famous for its practitioners of the art of Neopolitan Nativity scenes featuring detailed figurines. Walk slowly and peer through the shop doors to watch the artists at work and take in the multi-colored display of finished pieces lining the walls.
Perambulate the past One of the best ways to experience new places is to simply wander. A good place to do that in Naples is the Centro Storico. Main thoroughfares include Via dei Tribunali, which bisects
the district running more or less east-west, Via Duomo, on the northeast side and Via San Biagio dei Librai to the south. You can go armed with a guidebook and check off the various churches and monuments or roam at random. A landmark to look out for is San Lorenzo Maggiore, Via dei Tribunali, 316. Open daily, entrance to the church is free. For nine euros, you can also visit the museum and excavations beneath the church that have unearthed what used to be a Greek and then Roman marketplace.
Capture the castle Castel dell’Ovo, or Egg Castle, gets its name from a legend that said the Roman poet Virgil ensured the safety of this spot in ancient times by burying a magical egg. If the egg breaks, disaster ensues. A devastating storm did strike in the 14th century, but alarm was quelled when authorities assured the populace that the egg had been replaced. Ask the friendly staff today where the egg is and they’ll reply, “It’s a secret.” The castle is home to a prehistory museum which hosts occasional exhibitions that are not free, but there is no charge to walk around the rest of the fortress. Climb to the top for great views of the bay and city. Don’t be surprised if you come across a bride or two, as this is a very popular spot for wedding pictures. Via Eldorado, 3. Open Monday-Saturday 9 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. in summer, 6:30 p.m. winter; Sundays and holidays 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Cover the waterfront Earlier this year, two waterfront streets, Via Caracciolo and Via Partenope, were closed to traffic, creating a pedestrian thoroughfare along the Naples’ waterfront that has proved popular with joggers, bikers and families out for a stroll. Here you can enjoy great views of the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius and maybe even get in a little exercise. Saving money? Burning calories? And getting a fabulous view? Yes, life is sweet.
Radio host to undergo medical procedure
Garrison Keillor
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Garrison Keillor, host of public radio’s popular A Prairie Home Companion, says he’s canceling an upcoming show to undergo a medical procedure. Keillor didn’t specify the procedure but says: “I now know more about the prostate than I ever wanted to.” The 72-year-old humorist and best-selling author says the procedure is set for Sept. 25, so he’s canceling a Sept. 27 show at the Fitzgerald Theater in St. Paul.

LUKE E. MONTAVON THE NEW MEXICAN
The Santa Fe Preparatory boys soccer team has not had the best of luck against defending state champions this year, but it proved it can compete with them. After a scoreless regulation, the visiting Las Cruces Bulldogs, last year’s Class AAAAA (now AAAAAA) state champion, scored in the 10th minute of overtime to take home a 1-0 nondistrict win Saturday at Brennand Field.
It is the second time the Blue Griffins (4-2) have forced a defending state champion into overtime, and it is the second time they came out on the losing end. They lost to defending Class AAAA champion Roswell in double overtime in the Louie Cernicek Tournament in Los Alamos last weekend before falling to the Bulldogs. Although Prep didn’t score, it was neck-and-neck with Las Cruces up until Kiki Najera connected on the

NEW YORK — As Kei Nishikori has kept fighting through imposing obstacles and higher-ranked opposition at this U.S. Open, his coach Michael Chang has congratulated him and then reminded him, “You’re not done yet.” He certainly is not. After battling his way to consecutive five-set upsets Kei Nishikori to earn a semifinal spot against the No. 1 seed, Novak Djokovic, Nishikori extended his one-man show of resilience by toppling Djokovic to reach the U.S. Open final. His remarkable 6-4, 1-6, 7-6 (4), 6-3 victory on a muggy Saturday afternoon made him the first man from Asia to reach a Grand Slam singles final. “It’s, I don’t know, 4 o’clock in the morning,” Nishikori said afterward

Mistakes costly in Lobos loss By Will Webber The New Mexican
ALBUQUERQUE — In the days leading into Saturday’s matchup with nationally ranked Arizona State, University of New Mexico football coach Bob Davie said 16 Ariz. St. 58 the Lobos would need to play a UNM 23 perfect game — perhaps the best in school history — to have any chance. They would also need to avoid the devastating mistakes that have been their calling card in recent years, the kinds of miscues that tend to take the air out of the crowd and deflate the team. The Lobos were far from perfect and the mistakes were widespread. The results were, therefore, not a surprise. The 16th-ranked Sun Devils (2-0) looked great early, then let the Lobos (0-2) back into it late in the first half, then looked great again in a 58-23 rout of UNM before 25,742 fans at University Stadium. “It’s not about talent,” Davie said. “We have some talent on this football team. We’re just not capable of exe-

When do runners make their final kick on the 5-kilometer course at UNM North Golf Course? Where do you do it? Those questions are not as simple as they appear, especially given the number of switchbacks the course features to fit the required distance on a 9-hole golf course. On Saturday morning, some struggled with figuring out the moment
to kick it into high gear to finish their run. Taylor Bacon waited for Jordyn Romero. Greg Ahlers relied on his mom. Maddie Foley just followed Arena Lewis. They were all effective strategies for Northern runners, especially in a loaded field that included some of the state’s best from Classes AAAAAAAAA. Foley, a junior for five-time AAAAA champion Los Alamos, stayed with and passed Belen’s Lewis in the final 400 meters to take fourth place in the girls division in 19 minutes, 21.70

Like a kid who can’t forget his high school sweetheart despite the abundance of so many others later in life, my loyalty to the Bullets is never-ending. The Wizards can even disguise themselves in the old team colors and mimic the unique uniforms, but it’s just not the same. Of course, most of this is my own fault. Stubborn beyond belief, I am also as picky as they come. Maybe it’s a team’s uniform, maybe it’s a city. Maybe it’s because I rooted against that team for so long that it’s impossible to join forces. Truth is, you can’t teach an old dog new tricks in the same way you can’t teach an old fan to fall in love with another team — even if it’s the team that was there to begin with, albeit

under a new name. All of which leads me to the following point: I’m a Redskins fan. By the clueless characterization of some, that makes me a racist who hates Native Americans and stands firmly behind the oppression of a race that defines one of mankind’s ugliest black eyes. As informal as it it gets, I believe I speak for all Skins fans when I say we don’t have a reason for loving the team the way we do. If there is, it certainly has nothing to do with being a race-bating hater who enjoys mocking Native Americans. In fact, my own history of allegiance is as simple as growing up in the same neighborhood as a guy who graduated from Notre Dame at the same time Joe Theismann was the school’s quar-
terback. Theismann was, by then, the QB for the Redskins and this neighbor rooted passionately for him. As a kid growing up in Santa Fe, a town whose fan base was mostly proCowboys or pro-Broncos, learning of a team who had virtually no fans in this area, a team whose uniforms were pretty darn snazzy, a team that seemed to struggle and didn’t have a bandwagon — it was the ideal fit for an elementary school kid looking to jump on board. All of this leads me to one grand conclusion: As with the demise of the Bullets, it’s becoming clear the same is true of the Redskins. Too bad, too. From this vantage point, being a fan-free agent really stinks.

Open: Cilic, Nishikori are lowest seeds to reach final since 2002 Continued from Page D-1 of the time in his home country, Japan. “But I hope a lot of people are watching.” If they were not on Saturday, they will be soon. Nishikori, a 24-year-old who left home at 14 to train at the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla., has long been a star in his native country. But his inspiring, unexpected run in New York and his victory over Djokovic will only make him more of a public figure. “This is definitely huge for Japan,” Djokovic said. “It’s a big country, over a hundred million people. This can definitely be a great encouragement for tennis in that country. He’s been around for the last couple years. He’s been making a lot of success. But play-
ing finals of a Grand Slam and now fighting for a title is definitely something different.” A title is hardly out of the question given that his opponent in Monday’s final will be another man making his Grand Slam final debut: 14th-seeded Marin Cilic, who is playing and serving brilliantly but who has lost to Nishikori five times in seven matches, including twice this year. Cilic and Nishikori, the No. 10 seed, are the lowest seeds to reach the final of the U.S. Open since Pete Sampras, who was seeded 17th when he won the title in 2002, in what turned out to be his final professional match. But Nishikori is still getting started. He might well have made this kind of breakthrough already if not for a series of injuries, including an elbow prob-
lem that required surgery in 2009 and knocked him out of the top 100. Relatively small at 5 feet 10, but with an undeniably big game, Nishikori is as quick when a point is underway as he is slow when he is walking to his chair on a changeover or trailing behind his friends and coaches. “In the airport, he’s always behind,” said his co-coach, Dante Bottini. “We are always looking for him and going, ‘Where is he?’ He’s so slow that it irritates me sometimes, but if he wants to save the energy for the matches, that’s fine with me.” Nishikori was born in Matsue, the capital of Shimane Prefecture. Japanese sponsors helped fund his move to Florida, where he was quickly identified as a great talent by people including Nick Bollettieri, the vener-
able, voluble American coach who is still working the courts at the academy, which once bore his name. “He and Xavier Malisse and Marcelo Rios are the best shotmakers I’ve ever worked with,” Bollettieri, who once coached Andre Agassi and Boris Becker, said in an interview before this season. “If Kei Nishikori could stay healthy, he could be and would be right up with the big boys.” Eight months later, there he was in Arthur Ashe Stadium, staying close to the baseline and beating the topranked player in the world. Nishikori had played Djokovic twice before, losing in the second round of the French Open in straight sets in 2010 and upsetting him in 2011, near the end of Djokovic’s finest season, in the semifinals of an indoor tourna-
ment in Basel, Switzerland.
Makarova, Vesnina win doubles title Ekaterina Makarova and Elena Vesnina won their second Grand Slam doubles title, ending Martina Hingis’ run at the U.S. Open. The fourth-seeded Russians rallied from down a set and break to beat Hingis and Flavia Pennetta 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 on Saturday night. Playing doubles in her latest comeback from retirement, the 33-year-old Hingis was in her first major final since the 2002 Australian Open. She has won nine Grand Slam doubles titles to go with her five major singles championships.

PREP ROUNDUP
SFIS ends 20-match losing streak, beats Estancia The New Mexican
The streak is over for the Lady Braves of Santa Fe Indian School. Now it’s about finding consistency to start a new one. SFIS 3 SFIS ended a 20-match volleyball losing streak on Estancia 1 Saturday morning, beating Estancia 25-21, 25-14, 19-25, 25-20 in the consolation bracket of the Moriarty Invitational. The joy didn’t last long, as Capital upended the Lady Braves 21-25, 25-22, 25-7, 25-20 to take fifth place in the silver bracket. While SFIS head coach Brian Gurule was happy to see the streak end, he feels his team has untapped potential. What’s holding it back, he said, is consistency. “It’s just a matter of them learning how to win and how to put teams away,” Gurule said. “Sometimes, we have moments of brilliance, and sometimes we don’t.” That was evident against the Lady Jaguars. After falling behind 18-8 in the second game, SFIS scored 11 of the next 12 points to tie the score. When Capital pulled out the win, the Lady Braves seemed to agonize over the missed opportunity. “We show we’re a good team, but then we lose focus,” Gurule said. Adrienne Dawes led the Lady Braves with 15 kills in each match, while RanDee Toya had 10 kills against Capital. Freshman setter Maya Wero had 61 assists on the day. LOGAN 3, PECOS 0; PECOS 3, MORA 0 The Pecos volleyball team picked up third place at the Tucumcari Invite with a split on Saturday. The Lady Panthers starting the day by playing Logan, to whom they lost in three sets 25-17, 25-12, 24-26. Pecos then beat former district rival Mora 25-23, 25-23, 26-24 to go home with some hardware. Pecos (4-1) lead Logan 7-0 in the first game, but then the Lady Longhorns exploded and swept
the Lady Panthers. “Maybe they woke up, I don’t know what it was,” Pecos head coach Leonard Velasquez said. “Logan is pretty tough. They’re big, tall and tough.” Ida Valencia led Pecos with six kills and seven digs against the Rangerettes (0-2) while Jeanine Montoya added six kills and Cassie C de Baca had 10 assists. “We were able to beat them at the end,” Velasquez said. “We were lucky that they weren’t able to get some of our balls.” SANTA FE HIGH 3, TEXICO 1 SANTA FE HIGH 3, PORTALES 0 The Demonettes (5-0) beat Texico 25-22, 19-25, 25-20, 25-22, before beating Portales in the Moriarty Invite, but it wasn’t easy. “It was a struggle,” Santa Fe High head coach Sam Estrada said. “It was tough to put a ball down against them.” Kayla Herrera had 23 kills and 22 digs while freshman Brandi Fulgenzi had 15 kills. Santa Fe High made short work of the Lady Rams by beating them 25-11, 25-10, 25-11 behind 12 kills from Herrera and four from Monae Ortega. “It was a nice feeling to be on top and not stress out,” Estrada said. “Our serving kept them off-balance and they couldn’t get their balls to their hitters.”
needed, especially against the three-time Class B (now A) runner-up. Still, the Lady Grizzlies outlasted the visitors with a 25-17, 25-21, 19-25, 26-24, 15-9 win. Waldorf looked to be done in the fourth game, but senior outside hitter Alex Chastenet served 12 straight points to get her team back into it. “We fought hard and learned a lot,” said Josie Adams, Waldorf head coach. “We are superexcited. I’m just proud of them.” Adams was especially proud of her defense, led by 14 digs from libero Sophie Linnett and Beatrice Lowe. Keifer Nace had a strong performance with 12 kills and 15 assists for the Lady Wolves (3-1), while Cecelia Barnard had 18 kills to lead all hitters. DESERT ACADEMY 3, SHIPROCK NORTHWEST 0 The Lady Wildcats opened the season with a 25-19, 25-19, 27-25 sweeping of the Lady Falcons. Amelia Linett had 17 service points with 20 digs, Tori Heath had 16 kills and Cassidy Hart added 19 assists to the winning effort. Desert Academy (1-0) only lost one player from last year, and head coach Natalie Passalacqua said the team doesn’t have to go through a rebuilding phase as a result. “I think we started out way ahead of last season,” she said. “I expect good things this year. They came around and started playing well.” GIRLS SOCCER
SANTA FE PREPARATORY 3, TAOS 0 The Blue Griffins rebounded from a tough home-opening loss to McCurdy with a 25-19, 25-7, 25-11 sweep of the Lady Tigers in Prep Gymnasium. Desiray Anderson had 17 kills, eight digs and three assists to lead Prep, while Elena Wirth collected 15 digs and served four aces. Courtney Timlin led the offensive attack with 16 assists. “The girls turned it around,” said Prep head coach Kiran Bhakta. “The loss to McCurdy was heart-breaking , but they showed a little fortitude.”
EAST MOUNTAIN 3, SANTA FE PREPARATORY 0 The young Blue Griffins, with a group of mostly freshmen and eight graders, fell behind 2-0 at the half, and the Lady Timberwolves added a goal in the second half of a nondistrict match at Brennan Field. The highlight of the day was senior goalkeeper Kate Martin, who had 19 saves in her first year in the position. Prep, which is back under the guidance of Stephanie Coppola after a two-year hiatus, fell to 1-5 on the season.

UNM: Romero performs better than last year Continued from Page D-1 seconds, and helped the Lady Hilltoppers to a sixth-place finish (141 points) in the team standings. Foley said knowing where she was on the course was difficult given the large crowd that gathered at every switchback. “There are so many people lined up on that last 800 [meters], so you start kicking there like you have a 200 left,” Foley said. “Then they’re like, ‘You have a 600 left to go.’ And you’re like, ‘Oh, I should not have kicked that soon.’ ” Ahlers, a senior for the Los Alamos boys, found a creative way around that conundrum. He waited to hear the voice of his mom, who stood just before the final turn toward the finish line and yelled at him to run when the time came. He picked off six runners in the process to take 14th place in 16:51.89 — the best finish of all
runners from the North. That helped the Hilltoppers finish sixth with 188 points in the lowest-score-wins format. It helped that he had teammate John Rees, who was 18th, to run with for almost the entire race. Still, they relied on Ahler’s mom to give them their cue. “I asked her to stand at the corner and just scream at me,” Ahlers said. “Then I turned it on and let it loose.” Meanwhile, Desert Academy’s Bacon ran at the UNM meet for the first time and took 38th in her AAA debut — she and the program were in A last fall — while passing Romero, a senior at St. Michael’s, down the final straightaway for the position. Bacon admitted that she kept waiting to see the finish line during the final few turns. Romero was a blessing in disguise, since she passed Bacon before the Lady Wildcats senior returned the favor.
“I kept saying, ‘OK, it has to be here,’ and it wasn’t,” Bacon said. For Romero, it was a pleasant kickoff to her senior year — one in which she feels reinvigorated after a lackluster junior season in cross-country and track. She admitted that her struggles fell squarely on her shoulders. “In cross, I just wasn’t as motivated to run,” Romero said. “I wouldn’t perform in meets and I would let it get me down and not practice as hard. Running wasn’t really my priority last year.” Her 39th-place finish in 20:40.10 was second-best among all AAAA runners, and just 39 seconds behind East Mountain’s Addison Rauch. However, there were 25 runners in between her and Rauch,which showed how fast and competitive the field was. “I feel like I performed better,” Romero said. “Maybe not place-wise, but time. There
are a lot of girls and the competition out there. Every turn, you’d see 20 more girls in front of you.” It was a good performance overall for St. Michael’s, which took 11th on the boys side (the best among all AAAA teams) and 16th with the girls. The Elkettes of Pojoaque Valley (13th) were the only AAAA team ahead of the Lady Horsemen. Lenny Gurule, the St. Michael’s head coach, was especially happy to see sophomore Autin Luttrell finish the best on the boys side (33rd in 17:10.71) since he often is among the pack of Horsemen during practice. “That’s a good sign because in the training groups, they’re all pretty much together,” Gurule said. “And Austin doesn’t lead the training stuff. So I am happy with that.” Gurule wasn’t going to push for “The How” and “The Why” with Luttrell’s performance.

Prep: Team was competitive despite loss Continued from Page D-1 game-winning shot. “We matched up with them, and I don’t think they expected that,” Prep head coach Hersch Wilson said. “I know we’re a real competitive team, and we’re not going to quit.” Heading into the overtime period, Las Cruces didn’t show any sign of quitting, either. The Bulldogs have had five of their six matches go into overtime this season. Three of those ended in ties, since the New Mexico Activities Association mandated that non-tournament regular season matches don’t go to shootouts at the end of the second overtime period.
“We feel like we’re really, really fit, so we’re not scared of going into overtime,” Las Cruces head coach Erik Tuchfarber said. “We’re used to it at this point.” The Bulldogs nearly evaded overtime altogether late in regulation, but Prep senior defender Keenan Amer put his foot in the way. With Las Cruces swarming on the Prep goal in the 70th minute, goalkeeper Ian Andersson moved out of the goal to help the defense, leaving Amer to back him up. As a shot ripped past Andersson, Amer blocked the potential game-winning goal with the bottom of his foot as he was
going to the turf. “I think I kneed it, and then I fell on my back and cleared it as I was falling,” Amer said. “I was really surprised.” That block left Wilson praising Amer after the match, and he still can’t believe what he saw. “That’s not physically possible,” Wilson said. “He always does that. He is by far the best defender we’ve ever had, and he’s probably one of the best soccer players we’ve ever had. I want a videotape to see that again.” Amer couldn’t stop the goal by Najera in overtime, but the Blue Griffins were able to slow a team that has collected three
state titles in the last ten years. “It feels good to know that we can compete with any class,” Amer said. “That team was super fast, and I think it’s really good to play someone like that to get the experience.” Prep is still winless against defending champions, but Las Cruces and Roswell provided quality tests as the Blue Griffins prepare to face 4-1 Taos on Monday. “I wouldn’t say we’re happy, but we’re not bummed out,” Amer said. “We know we played a really good team and competed with them. Of course we would have liked to win, but we know we can play with anyone now.”
half for the Lady Dragons (1-2) in their first win of the season in a nondistrict match at the Municipal Recreation Complex. The Elkettes (0-3-1) remain winless, but they gave Monte del Sol all it could handle. “Pojoaque had a lot of good passing, but our girls brought the same kind of game,” Monte del Sol head coach India Nixon said. The Lady Dragons will play at Santa Fe High on Tuesday. SANTA FE HIGH 5, ARTESIA 3 Sasha Burlingame had two goals for the Demonettes (3-1) while Jessica Gonzalez, Elena Lemus and Olivia Lettenberger all added scores to help overcome the Lady Bulldogs on the road. “I was very pleased with the girls’ effort and execution of our game plan,” Santa Fe High head coach Keith Richards said via text message. “It’s never easy to travel four hours on a bus and get right off and play 80 minutes of soccer.” Freshman Imani Randall was in goal the entire match for Santa Fe High. ACADEMY FOR TECHNOLOGY AND THE CLASSICS 2, NAVAJO PREPARATORY 1 Angelika Lucero and Jamie Romo each had goals in ATC’s first varsity win in school history to bump the team’s record to 1-2-1. Goalkeeper Alizabeth Williams had 12 saves against the Lady Eagles. BOYS SOCCER MONTE DEL SOL 8, POJOAQUE VALLEY 0 Five different players had goals for the Dragons (4-2) as they handled the Elks (1-3) in a nondistrict match at the Municipal Recreation Complex. Monte del Sol didn’t have any trouble with Pojoaque, but head coach Mazatl Galindo saw some of his old team in the young Elks. “I think all of us have been there before,” Galindo said. “I give a lot of credit to them for not giving up. We took care of business, but I want to give a lot of credit to Pojoaque.” The Elks play Desert Academy at Alto Park on Monday.

AMERICAN LEAGUE
Buchholz shines again as Red Sox beat Jays The Associated Press
BOSTON — Clay Buchholz had his third straight solid start and the Boston Red Sox beat Toronto 4-3 Red Sox 4 Saturday night, damBlue Jays 3 aging the Blue Jays’ fading playoff hopes. Buchholz (7-8) gave up two runs and four hits in 6⅓ innings to help Boston get its second straight win against Toronto. Edward Mujica, Boston’s fourth reliever, got the final two outs for his fourth save. Colby Rasmus had a pinchhit, two-run homer in the seventh for the Blue Jays, who began the day five games behind Seattle for the AL’s second wild card. The Red Sox scored single runs in the first four innings off J.A. Happ (9-9) after the Blue Jays jumped ahead 1-0. ANGELS 8, TWINS 5 In Minneapolis, Albert Pujols homered and hit a tiebreaking, two-run double in the ninth inning for his 2,500th hit, leading Los Angeles over Minnesota for their third straight win over the Twins. Pujols hit a solo homer in the third off Phil Hughes for a 3-2 lead, scoring his 1,500th run on his 25th home run this season. With the score 5-all in the ninth and two on, Pujols doubled to deep left off Jared Burton (2-5) and scored on Howie Kendrick’s single against Anthony Swarzak. INDIANS 3, WHITE SOX 1 In Cleveland, Corey Kluber pitched a five-hitter to win for the first time in a month, rookie Jose Ramirez hit a go-ahead triple in a two-run seventh inning and the Indians beat Chicago. Kluber (14-9) allowed an unearned run, struck out eight and walked none in his third big league complete game — all this season. He had been 0-3 in four starts since winning at the New York Yankees on Aug. 9 and in his previous start allowed a career-high three homers in a 12-1 loss to Detroit on Monday. Third-place Cleveland closed within five games of first-place Kansas City in the AL Central. The Indians are four games back of Seattle, which played later Saturday, for the AL’s second wild card. YANKEES 6, ROYALS 2 In New York, Brandon McCarthy won for the second time in six starts, and the Yankees feasted on Kansas City’s bullpen in a win after Royals starter Danny Duffy left because of an injury after just one pitch. A night after a 1-0 loss in the series opener dropped them 4½ games back for the AL’s second wild card, the weak-hitting Yankees scored as many as six runs for the first time since Aug. 29. McCarthy (6-4) allowed two runs and six hits in 6⅔ innings with four strikeouts and a walk. He was 3-10 with a 5.01 ERA in 18 starts before the Yankees acquired from Arizona on July 6. ATHLETICS 4, ASTROS 3 In Oakland, Calif., Jed Lowrie hit a game-ending RBI single in Oakland’s three-run ninth inning, sending the Athletics to a victory over Houston. Lowrie, Josh Reddick and Coco Crisp had two hits apiece as Oakland snapped a threegame losing streak. The Athletics were six games back of the AL West-leading Angels coming into the day, but were also on top of the wild-card standings.

THIS DATE IN BASEBALL Sept. 7 1908 — Walter Johnson pitched his third consecutive shutout in four days with a 4-0, two-hit victory over the New York Highlanders. 1911 — Rookie Grover Alexander of the Philadelphia Phillies took a 1-0 thriller from 44-year-old Cy Young, who was closing out his career with the Boston Braves. 1916 — The New York Giants beat the Brooklyn Dodgers 4-1 to start their 26-game winning streak, a major league record. 1962 — Maury Wills of Los Angeles stole four bases and set a National League record with 82 for the season. The Dodgers lost to the Pittsburgh Pirates 10-1. 1993 — Mark Whiten of the St. Louis Cardinals had the greatest game at the plate in major league history in the nightcap of a doubleheader with Cincinnati. In the 15-2 win, Whiten hit four home runs and drove in 12 runs to become the only player to accomplish both feats in one game. 1998 — Ken Griffey Jr. homered twice against Baltimore, giving baseball three 50-homer players in a season for the first time. Griffey joined Mark McGwire and Babe Ruth as the only players to hit 50 or more in consecutive seasons. Ruth did it in 1920-21 and 1927-28, and McGwire hit 50 or more the last three years. 2001 — Alex Rodriguez broke his own American League record for homers by a shortstop with his career-best 43rd as Texas beat Kansas City 8-2. 2007 — Curtis Granderson hit his 20th home run in Detroit’s 6-1 win over Seattle, making him only the sixth major league player since 1900 with at least 20 home runs, 20 doubles and 20 triples in one season.

It was Heisey’s fourth pinch-hit homer of the season. Aroldis Chapman relieved and got the
last four outs for his 30th save in 32 chances, escaping a threat in the ninth with the help of a replay. Curtis Granderson singled was replaced by Eric Young, Jr. Dilson Herrera walked.

Burnett allowed one run in seven innings, Ryan Howard had two RBIs and last-place Philadelphia beat the Nationals to secure their first winning season against Washington since 2010.

Auburn (2-0) had six San Jose St. 13 touchdowns and 358 yards on the ground, including 112 from Artis-Payne. Quarterback Nick Marshall, making his first start of the season, ran for 103 yards, including a 27-yard touchdown on his final drive late in the third quarter.

UTAH STATE 40, IDAHO STATE 20 In Logan, Utah, Jalen Davis intercepted two passes, returning one 44 yards for a touchdown, and JoJo Natson added a punt return for a score to help Utah State pull away from Idaho State. Rashad Hall pushed the Aggies (1-1) ahead with a 5-yard rushing touchdown late in the first half. After a three-and-out, Natson returned a punt 52 yards for a touchdown with 1:24 left in the second quarter. A 1-yard score from Joe Hill followed by Davis’ pick six four plays later put Utah State ahead comfortably in the third quarter. Chuckie Keeton threw for 116 yards with an interception and ran for 74 yards and a touchdown. Hill and Hall each added 69 yards rushing.

In the third quarter, Utah’s Nate Orchard recovered a snap that went high over the Fresno quarterback’s head and ended on the Fresno State 1. Two plays later, Wilson threw his career-best fifth touchdown pass to Anderson. The next Utah possession ended with Wilson’s replacement, Kendal Thompson, scrambling 14 yards to make it 45-7 for Utah (2-0). Wilson connected with Westlee Tonga over the middle on fourth-and-1 and the tight end dragged two Bulldogs into the end zone for 24-0
NO. 21 NORTH CAROLINA 31, SAN DIEGO STATE 27 In Chapel Hill, N.C., Tim Scott’s interception in the end zone with 14 seconds left preserved No. 21 North Carolina’s victory over San Diego State. Marquise Williams threw two second-half touchdown passes and freshman Elijah Hood rushed 2 yards for the go-ahead score with 8:01 left for the Tar Heels (2-0).

Quinn Kaehler threw for a career-high 341 yards with a touchdown, then led the Aztecs (1-1) to a first-and-goal from the North Carolina 3 in the final minute.
Lobos: Next game vs. NMSU Continued from Page D-1 cuting at a high enough level. Not right now.” It was the second straight game in which the Lobos started poorly, allowing the opponent to build a three-possession lead before halftime. Still, Davie thought the win was still within reach at halftime. The Sun Devils build an early 22-0 lead, then UNM cut it to 29-22 late in the first half before ASU pulled away. “At halftime I thought we could win the game, I’ll be dead honest,” Davie said. “We just couldn’t execute, plain and simple.” New Mexico will have two weeks to lick its wounds heading into a Sept. 20 visit to unbeaten New Mexico State. The Lobos will also have two weeks to let quarterback Cole Gautsche heal his ailing right hamstring. Gautsche missed Saturday’s game, deferring the starting role to senior Clayton Mitchem for the first two offensive drives. Davie suggested all week that Mitchem would be at the end of a short rope as freshman Lamar Jordan was waiting in the wings. Mitchem’s first series ended in a UNM punt that ignited an Arizona State touchdown drive. The second ended when Mitchem fumbled the ball at his own 32-yard line, allowing the Sun Devils to make it 15-0 less than 10 minutes into the game. The lead grew to 22-0 after Jordan was inserted and promptly fumbled on the second snap of his Lobo career, but his insertion into the game
kept Mitchem on the sidelines the rest of the night. The catalyst, Davie said, was the early fumble. “Clayton Mitchem, I’ve seen enough of him,” Davie said. “I love him, but you just can’t put the ball on the ground.” The mistakes set the tenor for a long night, mistakes that were compounded by another tough night by the defense. ASU’s first play from scrimmage resulted in a 45-yard run by quarterback Taylor Kelly, a run in which he dropped back to pass, then rambled through the line for a long gain to set up the first score. Davie called it a microcosm of the defense’s woes. Safety David Guthrie said the missed tackles and botched assignments are just mental breakdowns. “It’s maturity,” he said. “That’s one thing. We’re young. Football’s easy. We’ve been playing it since we were toddlers. We just need to make plays now.” There were bright spots. Jordan did pass for 130 yards and a touchdown and rushed for 32 yards. He also had a long touchdown run in the fourth quarter called back on an offensive penalty. After the game, he said Gautsche was his biggest supporter, reminding him to slow the game down and let things happen naturally. “He told me to calm down, have fun and play the game like I’m doing it for a living,” Jordan said. Davie told the media afterward that Jordan’s play earned him a promotion to No. 2 on the depth chart behind
Gautsche. The freshman acquitted himself well against what will be the toughest opponent UNM will see all season. He led the Lobos on three scoring drives over a fourpossession span, putting the heat on a Sun Devils squad that looked like it was going to turn the game into a complete rout after the first quarter. Davie said it all comes down to defense, not the offense. ASU amassed 621 yards of total offense; 423 of it in the rushing department. Running back D.J. Foster had 217 yards and a touchdown while Kelly had 84 yards and a touchdown of his own. The Sun Devils also converted on all six of their drives into the red zone. For Davie, it’s a fundamental issue that is so simple that even his wife has taken notice. While driving together to the team’s hotel before the game, the coach said his better half asked him a question that the entire Lobo fan base probably asks every single game. “She asked, ‘Why can’t we tackle?’ ” Davie said. “It’s one of the simplest things.” NOTES u Teriyon Gipson led the Lobos with 73 rushing yards, but the quarterbacking tandem of Jordan and Mitchem had just 18 yards between them. Gautsche had 184 yards by himself in last week’s loss to UTEP. u The Lobos got a rare special teams assist when Brandon Branch returned a blocked ASU extra point for a 2-point conversion the other way. That proved to be UNM’s only points of the second half.

THE NEW MEXICAN Sunday, September 7, 2014
NFL Week 1
By Benjamin Hoffman The New York Times
COLTS at BRONCOS
VIKINGS at RAMS
Line: Broncos by 8 Time: 6:30 p.m., NBC Denver is so loaded on offense that losing Eric Decker and Knowshon Moreno to free agency, and Wes Welker to a four-game suspension, should not slow it down much. Peyton Manning, who threw 55 touchdown passes last season, still has his favorite receiver, Demaryius Thomas, and his top red-zone receiver, Julius Thomas. Montee Ball, ready to step into an everydown role at running back, will be a downgrade from Moreno in terms of pass protection. But Ball provides more upside in the ground game and could help diversify what was a onedimensional, albeit extremely effective, unit last season. Erase the sentimentality, and this game is a matchup of two of the AFC’s top teams. PICK: BRONCOS
Line: Rams by 3½ Time: 11 a.m., Fox St. Louis has a front seven that could lead it to the playoffs if its offense can keep the team in games. Considering the preseason injury to Sam Bradford and Shaun Hill’s status as the starter, Robert Quinn and his running mates might want to save their effort for a season in which it will not be wasted. Matt Cassel has not been particularly impressive at quarterback for Minnesota, but with a few quality receivers, and Adrian Peterson still managing to draw an enormous amount of attention, the Vikings should be able to open the season with a road win. PICK: VIKINGS
49ERS at COWBOYS Line: 49ers by 5 Time: 2:25 p.m., Fox San Francisco has had a phenomenal run of success in three seasons under coach Jim Harbaugh, and each one has begun with a victory: The team has averaged 32.3 points a game in winning those openers. The offseason, however, was rough on the vaunted 49ers defense. Donte Whitner, a hardhitting safety, left as a free agent; NaVorro Bowman, an AllPro middle linebacker, is out for at least six more weeks because of a knee injury he sustained in last season’s NFC championship game; Aldon Smith, the team’s top pass rusher, was suspended for nine games for off-field infractions; Glenn Dorsey, a surprising success at nose tackle, is out with a torn biceps. PICK: 49ERS
PATRIOTS at DOLPHINS Line: Patriots by 4½ Time: 11 a.m., CBS Darrelle Revis and Richard Sherman are the best cornerbacks in the NFL. Their continual bickering over who is superior is the closest thing in the sporting world to the rivalry between Gore Vidal and Norman Mailer, writers who grew so tired of each other’s rhetoric that Mailer reportedly head-butted Vidal backstage at “The Dick Cavett Show.” As a Super Bowl champion, Sherman appears to have the current trump card over Revis, who has been rescued from Tampa Bay and finally has teammates worthy of his talent. In his first game for New England, Revis will try to help secure coach Bill Belichick’s 200th career win. PICK: PATRIOTS

The Bengals also kept center Trevor Robinson. “We have two good, quality guys who at some point will be on the 53-man roster, almost undoubtedly,” coach Marvin Lewis said. “We’re fortunate enough to have them here right now as reserves for us, and [it’s] an opportunity for them to continue to move forward.” Still played four years at Penn State and was a second-round pick in 2012. He played in eight games as a rookie and missed six games last season because of an elbow injury and a back injury. The Bengals are hoping that he can get healthy and work his way into their line rotation. Still could have signed with another team’s practice squad, but took the Bengals up on their offer. “I’m not about to up and leave them,” Still said. “Loyalty is something I really need right now because I never know what direction this is going to go with my daughter.”

Magic of staging Six home-stager secrets to make you like your house better By Jura Koncius
Before
The Washington Post
H
ome stagers are the people who sweep through homes going on the market and make them look uncluttered and cozy without a huge investment of time or money. What’s their secret? Stagers have a bag of design and organizing tricks that can be useful even to someone who has no plans to sell. They look to make a house or condo desirable to potential buyers and maximize price. They have practical ideas to refresh your stale living room or pump up your curb appeal. Stagers cast a critical eye on everything. They remove things. They group like items together, rearrange bookcases, toss out lumpy pillows and frame children’s artwork previously hanging from magnets on the fridge. They might gather all your scattered framed family photos, edit them and display them on one shelf or tabletop. Here are six ideas from four stagers to get you started on an intervention in your own home.
Tyler Whitmore staged this townhouse with the homeowners’ furnishings. Work included thinning out books, adding a new light fixture and removing an entertainment unit.
“Lots of bedrooms are small and have few windows,” says Tyler Whitmore, owner of staging and design firm Ta-da! Homes in Bethesda, Md., who advises people to take a critical eye to every room in the house and “think like you’re going to see the house, even if you’re not.” She suggests painting walls a light color and bringing in a neutral rug. Beds are the largest piece in the room, so linens shouldn’t stand out too much, she says. On a recent job, Whitmore replaced a dark navy bedspread on a mahogany sleigh bed with a cream coverlet. The navy one, Whitmore says, “created a big black hole in the middle of the room.” Replacing chunky, mismatched nightstands, she installed matching pedestal nightstands, reusing the existing crackledglass lamps. She put a pair of framed European prints over the bed as a focal point. “It feels calm in here now,” Whitmore says. “It’s the retreat everyone is looking for.”

n important decision for any investor wishing to purchase a commercial property is how to structure the financing of the proposed purchase. Can the investor pay with cash? Does he want to leverage the property, and if so, to what extent? This decision can have impacts beyond what most investors think. Not only can it affect your taxes, but it can also affect the return you receive on any given estimate. Understanding how debt financing can impact an investment is a very important aspect of any commercial transaction. There are benefits to both financing investment property and purchasing investment property outright with cash at closing. Which option is best varies with each investor. In an all equity transactions, all of the financing for the investment comes from the purchaser in the form of cash, a position few investors ever really achieve. However, there are a number of reasons why an investor may choose to assume some debt for a particular transaction: Size: The purchaser may not have sufficient funds to buy the desired property and would prefer to borrow than to take on additional equity investors. Diversity: Reducing risk through diversity can spread the risk over multiple properties. Leverage: By borrowing, the investor is often able to increase the return on the equity portion of the investment. Conversely, certain investors may choose not to take on debt. Cash position: The investor’s available cash reserves may influence the decision to take on debt. This is a rare position for most investors. Risk: With increased debt comes increased risk in the form of not having sufficient cash flow on the investment to meet the payments. The decision whether to use debt and how much depends on the investor’s objectives as well the specifics of the investment. Using a combination of debt and equity financing can enhance the rate of return on the equity of the investment. As long as the cost of debt (interest rate) is lower than the rate of return on the unleveraged transaction, the rate of return will continue to increase as the loan-to-value ratio increases. Of course, the amount of risk due to debt financing will also increase. In summary, it is important to understand the implications that using debt may have on an individual investment both before and after tax.

Exterior decorating: Updating with paints, trims By Melissa Kossler Dutton The Associated Press
Color and decorative pieces can improve the look of a home outside as well as in. Add trim boards, columns or porch accessories and you can dress up the facade of a house, improving its value and curb appeal. Just be sure to consider the home’s style, age and location. “The style of the house drives the type of materials you might add,” said architect Carolyn Dias of Lampert Dias Architects in San Clemente, Calif. “A cottage can’t be transformed to a Spanish Colonial.” Neighborhood associations or local building departments also might impose restrictions on what can be done to a home’s exterior and what paint colors can be used. In any case, pay attention to how neighboring homes look when changing yours. You want your house to look like it belongs, said Shari Hiller of PBS’ Around the House with Matt and Shari. She recommends scouting nearby streets for inspiration.
The colors used on this house are part of a new HGTV HOME by Sherwin-Williams color palette called the Softer Side. Experts say a colorful front door can improve your home’s curb appeal.

Staging: Keep the good-looking plants; get rid of rest Exterior: Location Before can drive choices Continued from Page E-1
Give the bathroom a face-lift
Laura McCaffrey, a real estate agent and home stager with Evers & Co. in Washington, D.C., sees lots of unusual bathroom tile color combinations in Washington’s 1920s and 1930s houses: yellow and black, gray and maroon, pink and green. Yes, it’s retro, but with age, tiles crack and bathtubs chip. Many homeowners don’t want to shell out big bucks to gut their bathrooms. So to update them, she swears by Miracle Method, a service that sprays an acrylic, usually white, coating that bonds to existing tile and tub in a layering process not unlike painting techniques used in the automotive industry. Broken or cracked tiles can also be repaired and sprayed. According to Mary Ann O’Hara from Miracle Method’s Kensington, Md., franchise, a standard bathroom tub and tile surface refinishing costs about $1,900. You can add a new vanity, a medicine cabinet and hardware for an additional charge. New floor tiles can be laid on top of existing tile. And then you don’t have to hunt for yellow and black towels or shower curtains. McCaffrey started including staging as part of her services as a listing agent about 10 years ago. “When I’ve finished staging a house, so many people say things like, ‘I wish I’d done this three years ago. Then I could have enjoyed it myself.’ ”
Make a good first impression Your front door and shutters welcome people to your home and should be painted regularly to look fresh and polished. Front doors are traditionally painted colors such as glossy black, barn red, forest green or white. Whitmore also likes the idea of painting the front door in a color that will hint at what is inside. McCaffrey is fond of giving the front door an unexpected color. She encourages clients not to match the colors of shutters and front doors. In one project, she found a front door and shutters both painted a sage green. McCaffrey chose a darker green to paint the shutters so that they stand out.
Upgrade rugs If your rug needs replacement, don’t just buy a standard 8-by-10 or 9-by-12 and plop it into your room. Kelley Proxmire, a Bethesda, Md., interior designer who added staging to her design business in
2009, suggests buying a wool remnant and getting it cut to perfectly fit your space. She likes to have carpet sized to fit around fireplace hearths or bay windows. This makes your room look bigger and neater, she says. If you can’t afford new carpet, use small Oriental or area rugs you might have stashed in a closet or basement on top of an existing rug to personalize your look. Layering a small rug in front of a sofa can be an especially smart idea if kids eat snacks there. Proxmire also uses spray paint to rejuvenate lamp finials and rescue old planters. She hunts down soup tureens from closets and fills them with hydrangeas for the dining room.
Continued from Page E-1
Give your houseplants a once-over Plants, whether succulents, ferns or rosemary topiaries, add to the look and energy of a room. Yet many people seem to be running plant hospitals, Proxmire says. “I see forlorn sticks in dusty old pots scattered all over the place,” she says. Proxmire advises looking over your plants on a regular basis; she does it every Sunday. “Be brutally honest. If the plant really doesn’t look great, get rid of it.” She isn’t totally heartless: She has created an orchid revival area on a deep windowsill in her home, behind some indoor shutters, where she can keep an eye on dormant orchids without putting them on public view.
Tyler Whitmore replaced a dark navy bedspread on a mahogany sleigh bed with a cream coverlet in a restaging; the navy spread created a big black hole in the middle of the room, she said. TOP PHOTO, DEBBIE LABONSKI; BOTTOM, TYLER WHITMORE
Trim and other embellishments
Separate matching sets of furniture “Lots of people go to a furniture store and buy matching sofas and loveseats and put them in their living rooms,” says Roslyn Ashford of Ra Redoes Rooms, a Silver Spring, Md., staging firm. “They stay there forever.” Ashford says many living rooms aren’t big enough for two sofas, and a loveseat rarely is sat on by more than one person. She often replaces a bulky piece with a chair that takes up less space and makes the room seem larger. In bedrooms, Ashford finds sets of matching massive wooden beds, side tables and dressers. Eight-drawer chests with mirrors are often jammed into a corner. “Most bedrooms can’t support that much furniture. Take the chest and put it in a hallway, dining room or an office, or any room you need storage.” She suggests putting a small dresser in a bedroom closet to save floor space. “When you’ve lived somewhere 10 or 20 years, you have to declutter all the rooms on a regular bases,” Ashford says.

is an easy way to make a big impact, said Hiller. And drawing attention to the front door is always a good idea. “You want people to notice where guests generally enter your home,” she explained. “It’s nice to make a statement there.” Consider the roof color as well, she added. Roofs tend to be in either cool or warm colors, and your paint choice should be in the same family. Where you live could drive your choices. Florida houses tend to be painted in a different palette — often shades of peach, beige and gold — than homes in New England or the Midwest, for example, said Hiller, who lives in Sarasota. Some colors, such as maroon and other earthy shades, make more sense on Colonial homes than coastal cottages, which are often painted in ocean-inspired blues and greens, she said. Paint stores can provide ideas about what colors are right for different building styles.
Older bathrooms can have a variety of unusual color combinations, but tile, sinks and tubs can be sprayed with an acrylic, usually white coating that brings the bathroom up to date. MIRACLE METHOD

Veneers — layers of material added after construction that do not offer structural support — are another way to change the outside of a home. Adding a wood, brick or stone veneer creates color and texture, Dias said. Veneers cost about $10 to $20 a square foot. “There are many kinds of veneers and they are fairly easy to apply,” Dias said. Exterior wainscoting panels are another way to add interest to a facade. The panels, usually embellished with a raised or recessed design, can draw attention to a window, porch or other architectural detail. If you have a front porch, you can create a new look by adding or embellishing its columns, said Dave Morris of Nashville, Tenn., who operates the website www.front-porch-ideas-andmore.com. Changes can be simple, like hanging decorative brackets where the columns meet the roof, or complex, like installing columns or adding stone or brickwork to them. Morris, too, emphasizes staying true to the architectural style of your home. For example, don’t add Victorian-style gingerbread trim to a modern house. Brackets and balusters come in a variety of materials and styles. “Think about what effect you want to have — something subtle or something that really stands out,” Morris said. When Lynn and Dennis Zawie decided to add rails and balusters to the porch that runs around two sides of their 1925 Dutch Colonial house, they wanted the trim pieces to look as original as possible. The Stony Brook, N.Y., residents visited lumber yards and big-box stores, and looked at dozens of photos of houses online. “I really wanted it to look like it had been here forever,” said Lynn Zawie. “I was very concerned about changing the look and the feel of the house.” The couple finally decided to go with wood balusters, even though they would require more upkeep. The addition of 300 white balusters and a stained-wood top railing dramatically improved the look of the home, they say. “It just adds to it,” she said. “It makes it stand out more.”
