Ex-police academy instructors sue Four lawsuits claim officials violated whistle-blower law and mishandled firearms

By Uriel J. Garcia

The New Mexican

The state Law Enforcement Academy kept poor track of firearms and ignored a warning that its curriculum was “seriously out of date,” according to lawsuits filed by four

former instructors under the state’s Whistleblower Protection Act. The four lawsuits, alleging wrongful termination, claim state Public Safety Department officials violated the state whistle-blower law, in part by ordering instructors to remain silent about their discovery of missing firearms and other weapons that weren’t registered on inventories. The suits also claim officials deprived them of their constitutional rights, defamed them, inflicted emotional distress and showed neglect in hiring, training and supervision.

A lawsuit filed on behalf of former basictraining instructor Phillip Gallegos says in February 2012, the instructors were ordered to conduct an inventory of the training facility’s firearms, and they determined many weapons were missing.

And in March 2012, says a lawsuit filed

by Anthony Maxwell, a former basic- and advance-training instructor, numerous loaded weapons were found in the office of advancetraining instructor Mark Shea, who also is

Lawmakers ask for review of dropout program deal Letter to attorney general questions legality of private contract funding

By Patrick Malone The New Mexican

Two Santa Fe lawmakers asked the New Mexico Attorney General’s Office on Tuesday to review an agreement between Santa Fe Public Schools and a Florida-based company hired to reel in dropouts and shepherd them to graduation.

Reps. Jim Trujillo and Luciano “Lucky” Varela, both Santa Fe Democrats, question in a letter to Attorney General Gary King whether the deal runs afoul of the New Mexico Constitution, which prohibits private schools and business ventures from receiving public money.

“We are concerned because the Santa Fe Public Schools is creating a new school for drop-outs and currently enrolled students, and turning that school over to private hands,” says the letter, which has support from the local teachers union.

The lawmakers’ plea for legal scrutiny of the agreement is the latest clash between the teachers union and the district’s administration over whether local

eanette Anaya was the youngest of four children. She was a chubby, happy little girl growing up in the Bellamah neighborhood in south-central Santa Fe, her mother, Teresa Anaya, recalled Tuesday.

She got along with her siblings, had plenty of friends, stuck up for kids who were bullied by other children and was generous.

She attended Nava Elementary School, De Vargas Middle School and, later, nearby Santa Fe High School.

She married her high school sweetheart at 18, but it didn’t last. The pair divorced a year later and since then, her mother said, Jeanette Anaya had been “a free spirit, living her life.”

That life ended five months ago, in the early morning hours of Nov. 7, when Jeanette Anaya was shot to death by a state police officer after a chase that started with what the

NATION&WORLD Pistorius describes ‘the moment everything changed’

By Sarah Lyall

The New York Times

PRETORIA, South Africa — It was the kind of flourish more often seen in courtroom dramas than in real-life murder trials. In the middle of his emotional and harrowing testimony Tuesday, Paralympic sprinter Oscar Pistorius stood up in full view of the packed courtroom, removed his prosthetic legs, and demonstrated how very vulnerable and exposed he can be.

The moment came on a grueling day in which a shaky, tearful Pistorius for the first time gave a full account of what he says happened the night that he shot and killed his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp. And it went toward bolstering the case the defense is trying to make: that Pistorius, the world’s most celebrated disabled athlete, is at the same time an anxious and physically fragile man who sprayed bullets through the door of his bathroom because he believed someone had broken into his house.

“I was overcome with fear,” he said, speaking of the moment he says he heard noises coming from outside his bedroom in the early hours of Feb. 14, 2013.

It was a hot and muggy night, Pistorius testified, and his air conditioning was not working. He woke up in the middle of the night, spoke to Steenkamp and then — without turning on the lights or putting on his prosthetic legs — went to the balcony next to his bedroom, he said.

Then, he says, he heard a noise.

“My lady, that’s the moment that everything changed,” he told the judge, Thokozile Masipa. “I thought that a burglar had entered my home.

Initially I froze. I didn’t know what to do. The first thing that ran through my mind is that I needed to protect myself,” he said, “that I needed to protect Reeva and I.” Pistorius is accused of murdering Steenkamp by shooting her four times in a fit of violent rage. If convicted he faces a minimum of 25 years in prison.

He contends that it was a tragic mistake, that he grabbed his gun from under the bed and went in search of intruders.

Even under mild questioning by his own defense lawyer, Barry Roux, Pistorius stuttered, paused, cried and lowered his voice to a whisper. And when he got to the crucial part of his story — the part where he fired through the bathroom door — he began weeping in earnest.

Pistorius’ lack of composure Tuesday does not augur well for how he will stand up under crossexamination by the prosecutor, Gerry Nel, who is known for his aggressive, unforgiving questioning.

More pings heard in hunt

By Nick Perry

The Associated Press

PERTH, Australia — A ship searching for the missing Malaysian jet has detected two more underwater signals, raising hopes the wreckage of the plane will be spotted soon, the Australian official in charge of the search said Wednesday.

Angus Houston, the head of a joint agency coordinating the search for the missing plane in the southern Indian Ocean, said that the Australian navy’s Ocean Shield picked up the two signals in a sweep on Tuesday.

“I think we are looking in the right area but I am not prepared to confirm anything until such time someone lays eyes on the wreckage,” he said.

The Ocean Shield first detected the sounds late Saturday and early Sunday before losing them, but managed to find them again on Tuesday, Houston said.

The ship is equipped with a U.S. Navy towed pinger locator that is designed to pick up signals from a plane’s black boxes — the flight

GM failed to answer are not engineering ones, and should have been answered by the deadline.

As of Tuesday, at least 2,177 members of the U.S. military had died in Afghanistan as a result of the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001, according to an Associated Press count. The latest identification reported by the military: Capt. James E. Chaffin III, 27, of West Columbia, S.C., died April 1, in Kandahar, Afghanistan, of a noncombat-related incident; assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 319th Field Artillery Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, Fort Bragg, N.C.

SANTIAGO, Chile — Chilean officials say some pre-Columbian mummies buried in the northern Atacama desert have been damaged by a magnitude 8.2 earthquake and hundreds of aftershocks that hit the country last week.

The cultural heritage unit within Chile’s equivalent of the FBI said Tuesday that some mummies suffered “serious damage,” but there was no immediate word on how many were affected. Police say the powerful quake caused landslides that threw some mummies out of their graves. The unit traveled to the Atacama to report on the condition of the mummies.

The mummies date back to the Chinchorro period that lasted from 5,000 to 1,500 B.C. That makes them older than the famed 3,300-year-old mummy of ancient Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun.

“massive fraud” took place in the balloting for a new leader. Hamid Karzai is constitutionally barred from a third term.

Saturday’s election was largely hailed as a success after a high turnout and relatively little violence despite a Taliban threat to disrupt the vote. But there were reports of fraud, such as ballotstuffing and government interference. A spokesman for the election complaints commission said more than 3,000 complaints were received. but only half of those were formally submitted.

Federal safety investigators say General Motors failed to respond to more than one-third of its requests for information about a faulty ignition switch linked to 13 deaths by an April 3 deadline.

In a letter to GM’s top lawyer sent Tuesday, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration imposed its maximum allowable fine for the delay of $7,000 per day.

That adds up to $28,000 so far, and the fines will continue to accrue until GM responds.

According to the letter, GM was granted extra time to answer “technical engineering questions” posed by the agency. But NHTSA contends many of the questions

U.S. will cut Air Force, Navy nukes WASHINGTON — The U.S. will keep its current force of 450 landbased nuclear missiles but remove 50 from their launch silos as part of a plan to bring the U.S. into compliance with a 2011 U.S.-Russia arms control treaty, the Pentagon said Tuesday.

The resulting launch-ready total of 400 Minuteman 3 intercontinental ballistic missiles would be the lowest deployed ICBM total since the early 1960s.

The decisions come after a strong push by members of Congress from the states that host missile bases to not eliminate any of the silos from which the missiles would be launched. Fifty silos will be kept in “warm” status — empty of missiles but capable of returning to active use.

The Associated Press

More mothers have been staying home with their children since the recession ended, but a growing number of them say that’s primarily because they can’t find a job, according to a new study.

Almost three in 10 mothers with children under 18 living with them are stay-at-home moms, an analysis of Census Bureau data by the Pew Research Center showed. That is a 3 percentage point jump from the depth of the recession in 2008.

The Pew study released Tuesday examined the demographic and economic factors driving the rise in stay-at-home moms, a phenomenon that sociologists are still attempting to understand.

After decades of decline, the share of mothers with children in the house has been growing since around 2000. About the same time, the percentage of married mothers who hold jobs began to decline.

The shift is most noticeable among women who are immigrants and who do not have college educations.

Though both American-born mothers and foreign-born mothers exhibited increases, 40 percent of immigrant mothers stay home to raise their children, compared with 26 percent of mothers who were born in the United States.

Similarly, though all racial and ethnic groups saw increases, Hispanic and Asian mothers were more likely to stay home with their children — more than one out of three, compared with barely one out of four white and black mothers. Pew’s analysis showed that 86 percent of all Asian mothers were born in another country, as were 60 percent of Hispanic mothers. In contrast, only 13 percent of black mothers and 6 percent of white mothers were foreign-born.

The rise in the share of stay at home mothers, however, stalled in the middle of the last decade, continuing through the Great Recession.

Since 2010, though it has picked up pace again, Pew said.

That suggests that economics and wage stagnation are playing more of a role now.

“When women were asked why they stayed home rather than work, most said it was to take care of their children,” said D’Vera Cohn, the Pew report’s author. “But we saw an uptick in mothers saying it was for economic reasons.”

In 2000, 1 percent of stay-athome mothers said they were home because they couldn’t find a job. In 2012, that share had leaped to 6 percent. Despite the recent shift, 20 percent of all married mothers with children under 18 stay home — half what it was in 1970, according to Pew. One in five children in the United States today lives with a stay-at-home mother married to a working husband. In 1970, 41 percent of children did.

Yankee in Cuba prison on hunger strike American protests actions by both the U.S. and Cuba

By Jessica Gresko

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — An American who has been imprisoned in Cuba for more than four years after illegally setting up Internet access on the island is on a hunger strike, according to a statement his lawyer released Tuesday.

Alan Gross, 64, said he was protesting his treatment by the governments of Cuba and the United States. He told his lawyer that he ate his last solid meal on the evening of April 2.

Gross was arrested in Cuba in 2009 while working in the Communist-run country to set up Internet access for the island’s small Jewish community, access that

U.S. and NATO warn Russia to stay out of eastern Ukraine DONETSK, Ukraine — As the government in Kiev moved to reassert control over proRussian protesters across eastern Ukraine, the United States and NATO on Tuesday issued stern warnings to Moscow about further intervention in the country’s affairs.

Secretary of State John Kerry accused the Kremlin of fomenting the unrest, calling the protests the work of saboteurs whose machinations were as “ham-handed as they are transparent.”

Speaking to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, he added: “No one should be fooled. It is clear that Russian special forces and agents have been the catalysts behind the chaos of the last 24 hours.”

The secretary-general of NATO, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, said Russia would be making a “historic mistake” by going into Ukraine. At a news conference in Paris, he said any such actions “would have grave consequences for our relationship with Russia and would further isolate Russia internationally.”

In Moscow, the Russian foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov, denied Tuesday the accusations of Russian meddling in Ukraine.

He said Russia would seek multinational talks on the Ukrainian political crisis that could involve the United States, the European Union and “all the political forces in Ukraine.”

The New York Times

bypassed local restrictions.

At the time, Gross was working as a subcontractor for the U.S. government’s Agency for Alan International Gross Development, which promotes democracy on the island. Cuba considers USAID’s programs illegal attempts by the U.S. to undermine its government, and Gross was tried and sentenced to 15 years in prison. Cuban officials initially accused Gross of spying, though more recent statements have said he set up “illegal and covert communication systems” and was sentenced for breaking Cuban laws.

“I am fasting to object to mistruths, deceptions, and

inaction by both governments, not only regarding their shared responsibility for my arbitrary detention, but also because of the lack of any reasonable or valid effort to resolve this shameful ordeal,” Gross’ statement read.

Gross’ hunger strike comes as U.S. and Cuban officials have questioned a different USAID program on the island. Last week, an Associated Press investigation revealed that USAID secretly created a “Cuban Twitter” communications network to stir unrest on the island.

The social media network, called ZunZuneo, was publicly launched shortly after Gross was arrested.

Gross’ lawyer, Scott Gilbert, said Tuesday afternoon after speaking with his client that learning about the ZunZuneo story was the “final straw” that prompted Gross’ hunger strike.

tions of the program’s risks.

Shah said that Congress has been notified about this program every year since 2008.

Shah said USAID did not set up a Spanish company to help run ZunZuneo.

But documents show the project not only planned to establish the Spanish company but also listed an end-of-month expense of $12,500 for the incorporation costs.

political satire. One early message sent on Aug. 7, 2009, took aim at the former Cuban telecommunications minister, Ramiro Valdes, who had once warned that the Internet was a “wild colt” that “should be tamed.”

“Latest: Cuban dies of electrical shock from laptop. ‘I told you so,’ declares a satisfied Ramiro. ‘Those machines are weapons of the enemy!’ ” Last Thursday, State Department deputy spokeswoman Marie Harf said that “no political content was ever supplied by anyone working on this project or running it. It was the people — the Cuban people on the ground who were doing so.”

However, Alen Lauzan Falcon, a Havana-born satirical artist based in Chile, said Tuesday that he was hired to write the political texts, though he was

Administrator Rajiv Shah that the program was “cockamamie” and not adequately described to Congress.

USAID, known worldwide for its humanitarian work, has repeatedly maintained it did not send out political messages under the project. Leahy asked Shah whether the project’s goal was to “influence political conditions abroad by gathering information about Cuban cellphone users” or “to encourage popular opposition to the Cuban government.”

“No, that is not correct,” Shah said. “The purpose of the program was to support access to information and to allow people to communicate with each other,” he said. “It was not for the purpose you just articulated.”

But some messages sent to Cuban cellphones were sharp

REP

WASHINGTON — Draft messages produced for a Twitter-like network that the U.S. government secretly built in Cuba were overtly political and poked fun at the Castro brothers, documents obtained

by The Associated Press show.

The messages conflict with claims by the Obama administration that the program had no U.S.-generated political content and was never intended to stir unrest on the island.

Disclosure of the messages, as described in internal documents, came as the head of the U.S. Agency for International Development told Congress in sometimes confrontational testimony Tuesday that his agency’s program was “absolutely not” covert and was simply meant to increase the flow of information.

An AP investigation last week found that the program, known as ZunZuneo, evaded Cuba’s Internet restrictions by creating a text-messaging service that could be used to organize political demonstrations. It drew tens of thousands of subscribers who were unaware it was backed by the U.S. government.

“I don’t do cultural humor,” he said. “I do political humor.

Everything I do is politics even if it is humor about politics.”

“Obviously it has to be covert, there is no way you can do something like this in Cuba without someone paying a price,” he said.

Some lawmakers in Washington have expressed support for ZunZuneo since the AP’s original disclosure.

The latest came at a second hearing on Tuesday, this one before a House subcommittee.

recorded by a dashboard camera in Wilson’s car. The officer said he started to fire his handgun after finding himself on foot and trapped between the two cars while Anaya’s car backed toward him, causing him to fear for his life.

Camera footage doesn’t show that, but it does show the officer running alongside Anaya’s car, shouting and shooting his handgun at her vehicle as she tries to drive way. Wilson fired a total of 16 shots during the incident, two of which struck Anaya, killing her. Her male passenger was unharmed.

When District Attorney Angela “Spence” Pacheco examined the video, she reportedly said she didn’t think Jeanette Anaya had even committed a traffic offense before the officer began chasing her car. But in January, a grand jury determined the shooting was justified.

“We were devastated,” Teresa Anaya said Monday during an interview at the office of her lawyer, Tom Clark. “I just screamed and said, ‘How could this be? How could this be justified?’ ” Anaya’s family has filed a tort claim notice, advising the state that she is prepared to file a civil suit over her daughter’s death.

Her attorney said the family might also pursue a lawsuit in federal court, alleging violations

of Jeanette Anaya’s civil rights.

But right now, they want “justice.” For Teresa Anaya, justice means criminal charges for Officer Wilson for fatally shooting her daughter and changes to a system that allows the New Mexico State Police, rather than an outside agency, to investigate its own officer-involved shootings. She said justice also means more and better officer training on the use of force and more rigorous screening for police officers.

“Police officers should be subject to the same laws as the rest of us,” she said, “whether they hold a gun and a badge or not.”

Since her daughter died, Teresa Anaya said, she is afraid for her children and her grandchildren, and calls family members nightly to make sure they’re OK. She even checks on Jeanette. “I’ll go up to her picture and kiss it and say, ‘I know you are home safe now, goodnight. I love you.’ ” She said, “It’s made it hard to trust the people you are supposed to trust.”

Jeanette Anaya’s friends and family will hold a gathering from 4 to 5:30 p.m. Friday at the district courthouse, 225 Montezuma Ave., to draw attention to state police policies they believe have led to injustices in connection with her death.

Dropout: Review could take months to complete, Trujillo says

CALENDAR Featured events in and around Santa Fe

Continued from Page A-1 staff or an outside business should be enlisted to fix Santa Fe’s low graduation rate, which languishes at 64.2 percent compared with the state average of 70 percent.

The Engage Santa Fe initiative, which aims to round up dropouts and educate them in a separate school run by Atlantic Education Partners, would be supported with state funds on a per-pupil basis at no cost to the local district. But Trujillo told The New Mexican he worries that private schools would be next in line to seek publicly funded contracts without being bound by the standards that govern public schools.

Santa Fe Public Schools Superintendent Joel Boyd said he welcomes a review by the attorney general and is confident King will uphold findings by the school district’s legal counsel that the contract is appropriate.

“We’re looking to meet the needs of our kids, and we’re looking to do it the right way,” Boyd said. “We feel like we’re on the right side of the law.”

He said school districts throughout New Mexico, including Santa Fe’s, contract with private companies for a number of services that aren’t prohibited by the state constitution. He cited the GED services that the nonprofit SER provides under a contract with Santa Fe Public Schools.

Trujillo said the contracts are not analogous, because SER’s involves GED degrees, and Atlantic Education Partners would be issuing diplomas with no assurance that they are meeting the established standards for attaining high school graduation in the state.

Union leaders also expressed concern about Boyd’s ties to Atlantic Education Partners, whose managing director, Joseph Wise, worked with Boyd at a school district in Florida.

Boyd, who plans to serve as principal of the dropout recovery school run by Atlantic Education Partners, defended his association with Wise and said he disclosed it early in the district’s vendor selection process.

The school board awarded the contract to Atlantic Education Partners over one other bidder.

More important than Boyd’s associations with the out-ofstate contractor is the exclusion of local teachers from the

outreach plan, according to the head of the local teachers union.

“Engage Santa Fe does sound wonderful but for one major point,” NEA-Santa Fe President Bernice García Baca said in a written statement. “[The district] is hiring a Florida-based start-up for-profit company … to provide this education instead of empowering and funding SFPS employees to develop a program.”

The union has threatened legal action if necessary to stop the school district from following through with its contract with Atlantic Education Partners.

“That’s really a bit surprising that an organization that has been an ally for education would threaten a lawsuit to keep kids out of school,” Boyd responded.

Trujillo said he shares the union’s position that dropout recovery should be in the hands of school district employees, not a for-profit vendor.

“They’ve got the infrastructure. They can apply for the money. They can do everything this private company can do,” he said. “So why do we need a private company to do this? We don’t.”

Boyd fired back that district staff has not proven it can see students through to graduation without some outside help.

“If we could do this ourselves, why are the children on the street?” he said. “Because we couldn’t afford to do it and didn’t have the expertise to do it.”

Trujillo said he expects it could be months before the attorney general’s review is complete. The attorney general’s spokesman did not return a message Tuesday seeking comment.

The Santa Fe school board has approved moving ahead with its contract with Atlantic Education Partners for academic services related to dropout recovery, but final details are being worked out. Vendors for job training services and child care are still being sought.

We’re looking to meet the “ needs of our kids, and we’re

looking to do it the right way.”

Pay: Over two-thirds of minimum-wage workers are women Continued from Page A-1 and race.

Tuesday’s actions mark the latest effort by Obama to highlight differences with Republicans on issues affecting women, in part to rally support for Democrats in the 2014 mid-term elections. He used the event to criticize Republicans for blocking Democratic initiatives to raise worker pay and for budget proposals that he said recycle discredited fiscal ideas.

Obama urged the Senate to pass legislation pushed by Democratic lawmakers that would apply tougher standards to employers defending themselves against claims of sex discrimination on wages. Some Republicans have opposed the legislation, saying it would hurt economic growth.

“Everybody should pay attention” to how lawmakers vote on the measure, Obama said.

Carrie Lukas, managing director for the Independent Women’s Forum, which describes its goal as “increasing the number of women who value free markets and personal liberty,” said the Senate measure would force employers “toward more rigid, one-size-fits-all compensation packages.”

She said in a statement that it benefits lawyers who file class action lawsuits more than female workers.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said on the Senate floor that the Democrats’ initiative is part of “a neverending political road show.”

Among those attending the White House event was Lilly Ledbetter, a former Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. manager who sued the firm after discovering near the end of a 19-year career that she was being paid more than $13,000 less than three male colleagues. Her case was thrown out after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled she missed a deadline for filing the lawsuit.

“My bill was just an important first step in the fight for fair pay,” Ledbetter said in introducing the president.

The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which provides employees more time to file such lawsuits, was the first legislation Obama signed into law when he took office in 2009.

Valerie Jarrett, the president’s senior adviser, said on a conference call yesterday that the equal pay issue is as much about economic growth as it is about fairness.

“For the United States to remain globally competitive, this issue must be addressed,” Jarrett said.

The Democrat-led Senate may also consider this month a measure to raise the minimum wage to $10.10 an hour, another item administration and Democratic officials say will help

“man with a rifle on academy property,” that the academy’s emergency evacuation and shelter-in-place plan was out of date.

According to court documents, Maxwell made 13 recommendations to academy directors.

Additionally, the suits say, the academy instructors told Public Safety Department officials that cadet dormitories lacked proper heating and hot water and had an odor of gas, and that fire alarms were disconnected.

Maxwell, who lived on the academy’s property to supervise the cadets after instructional hours, became seriously ill and was hospitalized after eating in the academy’s cafeteria in May 2012, one lawsuit says. Four days later, Voiles contacted the state Health Department, and the cafeteria was ordered to shut down for various health code violations, the lawsuit says.

Between October and December 2012, instructors met with a state police internal affairs officer, Maj. Scott Weaver, to discuss concerns, court documents say, but Weaver later told Maxwell that it was Weaver’s job to “protect both the Cabinet Secretary and the New Mexico State Police Chief.”

After being fired in December 2012, Maxwell filed a complaint with the state attorney general, the FBI and the academy’s board. His lawsuit claims that during a January 2013 meeting with academy instructors, Academy Director Jones said, “Maxwell is to shut his trap.”

The lawsuits say the other instructors now suing the department were told that “any other instructors who join him [Maxwell] will be brought up on charges of malicious inventory prosecution.”

women. More than two-thirds of minimum wage workers are female, according to the AFLCIO, the nation’s largest labor federation.

While Obama has championed equal pay since taking office, he has come pressure from some women’s groups in the past to boost the role of women in the White House and in his cabinet. Women make up about 53 percent of the electorate and gave Obama a decisive majority of their votes.

The White House staff roughly reflects the nation’s gender balance, with women in about half of almost 500 jobs with salaries ranging from $41,000 a year for staff assistance to $172,200 for senior advisers and assistants to the president, a group that includes Jarrett and press secretary Jay Carney.

Of the 22 White House employees listed in a 2013 annual report to Congress as making the top salary, 10 are women. Of the 55 at the lowest end of the pay scale, 24 are women.

An analysis of the salary report done in February by University of Michigan economics professor Mark Perry for the American Enterprise Institute, a Washington policy research organization, criticized the administration for its own gender gap when it comes to pay. It concluded the median salary for women in the White House was $65,000 and $73,729 for men.

Obama and his aides frequently cite a figure that women earn 77 cents for every dollar earned by men, a statistic criticized by administration opponents as misleading because it doesn’t account for differences in education and occupation.

Asked Monday about the AEI figures, Carney said women are well represented in the top ranks of the administration and that the median figure is better than the national average.

“And when it comes to the bottom line that women who do the same work as men have to be paid the same, there is no question that that is happening here at the White House at every level,” he said.

Bacon prices rise after Russia oil talks pose new hurdle to Iran nuke pact virus kills baby pigs The Associated Press

The Associated Press

MILWAUKEE — A virus never before seen in the U.S. has killed millions of baby pigs in less than a year, and with little known about how it spreads or how to stop it, it’s threatening pork production and pushing up prices by 10 percent or more.

Scientists think porcine epidemic diarrhea, which does not infect humans or other animals, came from China, but they don’t know how it got into the country or spread to 27 states since last May. The federal government is looking into how such viruses might spread, while the pork industry, wary of future outbreaks, has committed $1.7 million to research the disease.

The U.S. is both a top producer and exporter of pork, but production could decline about 7 percent this year compared to last — the biggest drop in more than 30 years, according to a recent report from Rabobank, which focuses on the food, beverage and agribusiness industries.

Already, prices have shot up: A pound of bacon averaged $5.46 in February, 13 percent more than a year ago, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Ham and chops have gone up too, although not as much.

Farmer and longtime veterinarian Craig Rowles did all he could to prevent PED from spreading to his farm in Iowa, the nation’s top pork producer and the state hardest hit by the disease. He trained workers to spot symptoms, had them shower and change clothing before entering barns and limited deliveries and visitors.

Despite his best efforts, the deadly diarrhea attacked in November, killing 13,000 animals in a matter of weeks, most of them less than 2 weeks old. The farm produces about 150,000 pigs each year.

Estimates of how many pigs have died in the past year vary, ranging from at least 2.7 million to more than 6 million. The U.S. Department of Agriculture says the die-off has had a hand in shrinking the nation’s pig herd by 3 percent to about 63 million pigs.

Diarrhea affects pigs like people: Symptoms that are uncomfortable in adults become life-threatening in newborns that dehydrate quickly. The best chance at saving young pigs is to wean them and then pump them with clear fluids that hydrate them without taxing their intestines. But nothing could be done for the youngest ones except euthanasia.

“It’s very difficult for the people who are working the barns at that point,” Rowles said. “… No one wants to go to work today and think about making the decision of baby

pigs that need to be humanely euthanized because they can’t get up anymore. Those are very hard days.”

PED thrives in cold weather, so the death toll in the U.S. has soared since December.

The first reports came from the Midwest, and the states most affected are those with the largest share of the nation’s pigs: Iowa, Minnesota, North Carolina and Illinois. The disease also has spread to Canada and Mexico.

Some states now require a veterinarian to certify that pigs coming in are virus-free, while China, which has seen repeated outbreaks since the 1980s, has asked the U.S. Department of Agriculture to similarly vouch for animals shipped overseas.

Companies are racing to develop a vaccine, but the federal government has yet to approve one. While the mass deaths have been a blow for farmers, the financial impact to them may be limited because

pork prices are rising to make up for the loss of animals.

It takes about six months for a hog to reach market weight, so the supply will be short for a while. Smithfield Foods, one of the nation’s largest pork processors, has cut some plant shifts to four days per week in North Carolina, and those in the Midwest are likely to do so later this spring, said Steve Meyer, an Iowa-based economist and pork industry consultant.

Smithfield Foods declined to comment.

In the end, consumers will be most affected, Meyer said, with pork prices likely to be 10 percent higher overall this summer than a year ago.

“We’re all used to: ‘We’ve got plenty of food, it’s cheap. We’ll eat what we want to,’ ” Meyer said. “We Americans are very spoiled by that, but this is one of those times that we’re going to find out that when one of these things hits, it costs us a lot of money.”

COMMENTARY: RAMESH PONNURU

ACA isn’t dying — what next, GOP?

I

magine that someone had told you a year ago what Obamacare would look like in April 2014.

Let’s say he predicted that the number of people with health insurance would rise, but by much less than the Congressional Budget Office was projecting. Much of this increase would come from putting more people on Medicaid rather than from the exchanges, which were supposed to be the centerpiece of the law.

He went on to predict that President Barack Obama would feel compelled to let people stay in insurance plans that don’t comply with the Affordable Care Act’s regulations, and he would decide to delay several parts of the law.

That the law would turn out to discourage work, in part by making it pay less. That it would remain unclear how many states were going to have stable exchanges. And that Obamacare, already unpopular, would get a little more so.

That would have been seen as a pessimistic forecast. But that’s what happened.

My point isn’t to take away from the administration’s achievement in recovering from the disastrous rollout of the online insurance exchanges, which is genuinely impressive and a real boost for the White House in terms of both politics and policy. It’s to provide some perspective on that achievement.

This is not a success story.

It’s a survival story.

It looks like more than that only because, for a few weeks in October and November, the rollout made Obamacare’s collapse seem like a possibility. The website fiasco was a development that almost no one, on either side of the debate, had predicted.

Now that it’s resolved, the debate continues basically along the same lines that everyone expected a year ago.

The law will continue to be implemented, with the administration making whatever

Albuquerque must police the police

A

revisions it thinks necessary.

Opponents will continue to criticize it but be unable to repeal or significantly change it as long as Democrats hold the White House. Supporters will hope that it gets more popular, or at least more entrenched, as more people receive benefits from it.

A year ago, when almost everyone expected the law to expand coverage, there were reasons to doubt it would become popular as a result.

Those reasons still apply.

A lot of people are going to lose access to their doctors, another round of premium increases is likely, and some employers will drop coverage.

Obamacare won’t be responsible in all cases, but it will be responsible in many and blamed in many.

As it becomes clear to opponents that the law is not going to implode on its own, they’ll have to come up with proposals to replace it when they have the power. This is already happening. Last week, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal became the latest Republican to outline a plan.

Some Republicans, however, think proposing their own health care ideas is a

mistake because it distracts from the case against Obamacare. And even those who think it’s important to advance alternatives are divided on a key question: How important is it that a replacement plan increase coverage?

More people would have coverage under Jindal’s plan than under the pre-Obamacare system. But compared to Obamacare, people would lose coverage. Does that matter?

Jindal notes that Medicaid may not improve physical health outcomes for its recipients. Insurance coverage does, however, yield a measure of financial security. For many years, federal policy has suppressed the emergence of a market that would enable almost everyone to purchase protection from catastrophic medical expenses. Undoing those policies — especially by redeploying existing federal tax breaks to help the uninsured — would allow such a market to develop. A proposal by Republican Sens.

Tom Coburn, Orrin Hatch and Richard Burr that uses this approach could cover more people than Obamacare does.

The higher-coverage alternative seems like a better bet

for the law’s opponents, both from the perspective of winning the 2016 elections and that of actually enacting an alternative. It seems unlikely that Congress would pass legislation to strip coverage from millions of people.

Even if opponents of Obamacare eventually agree on that point, devising an alternative is only the beginning. It will still be necessary to strike at the Affordable Care Act’s weak points. The tax on people who don’t buy insurance is one of them. It is both the law’s least popular feature and a window into its coercive heart. Congressional Republicans should keep pressing on this issue.

One way of doing so: Replacement plans should make sure to include an amnesty for anyone who runs afoul of that tax. That’s my advice, free of charge, for Obamacare opponents in politics — especially any of them who are thinking about running for president.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Traitor? Snowden is not the problem

W

hen I read or hear of any government official referring to Edward Snowden as a traitor, I think “hypocrisy” and self-serving ignorance. All these people have taken an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States from all enemies, foreign and domestic. Snowden must have taken this oath at some time, and he takes it far more seriously than most of the people in Washington, more than most of the political leaders across the nation.

A significant number of people who have taken this oath, including large portions of both the administration and Congress, have betrayed it and are, in fact, domestic enemies of the Constitution.

And almost no one in government has fulfilled that oath by defending the Constitution against these people — except Snowden and a handful of other whistleblowers, who suffer persecution for their patriotism. Alas.

Santa Fe

Remember City Lights Raina Wellman’s article on independent cinemas in the paper (Generation Next, “Art house abundance,” April 4) was a very good article on exhibition

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: April 9, 1964: The Archdiocese of Santa Fe withdrew today from any participation in the Santa Fe Fiesta until and unless the city takes over the annual event.

In a letter to the City Council, Archbishop James P. Davis ratified the church’s decision to withdraw. In his letter, he told the council, “The church will not participate to any degree in a privately owned and operated carnival — in Santa Fe or elsewhere.”

in Santa Fe. We’re lucky to have such a vibrant scene.

But in all due respect, I have to point out that the Jean Cocteau Cinema was not the first independent art house in Santa Fe, as was stated in the article. It didn’t open in 1983. It did change hands and name then. It was the Collective Fantasy before Brent Kleiwer bought it in 1983. But previous to the Collective Fantasy was the City Lights Theatre, which I bought in 1978 and changed to City Lights Cinema. Before City Lights was City Lights, it was the Bijou Theatre, which did wonderful programming as a retro and art house theater, bringing alternative cinema to Santa Fe when no one else was doing it. I like to see credit where credit is due. I wouldn’t like to see these other art houses be neglected in stories of the

Tired of taxing How can five people have the authority to raise property taxes for Santa Fe homeowners? Is that for real? Is it just me, or are other homeowners tired of being considered a “bank” because we worked hard to own a home?

n extraordinary five-hour Albuquerque City Council meeting on Monday night makes clear how upset the people of New Mexico’s biggest city are after years of police violence.

Since 2010, 23 people have been shot and killed by Albuquerque Police Department officers. Only when James Boyd, a homeless camper, was shot last month as he appeared ready to surrender — a killing captured on video — did citizens demand answers. In short order, Albuquerque has seen protests, including one where officers dispersed tear gas into the crowd, and this week, witnessed a City Council meeting with testimony from more than 100 people.

Hundreds more showed up at the meeting, for a more-thancapacity crowd. On Thursday, the federal Justice Department will announce its findings after a months-long investigation into whether the department has a pattern of using excessive force. That investigation began before the shooting of Boyd.

Many APD critics want a complete Justice Department takeover of the department. Considering how hands-off city officials have been in the wake of the escalating violence, a takeover might be the only solution to restoring trust. Requiring lapel cameras, which records-encounters between cops and citizens, is another reform many want.

A more powerful citizens oversight committee and even election of the police chief are being discussed. Whatever reforms are recommended, they need to be overseen by a court so that accountability and oversight are present.

That is particularly important because city leadership has been mostly absent during this long-brewing crisis.

Mayor Richard Berry in 2011 vetoed a City Council request for a Department of Justice investigation. In March 2013, the Department of Justice announced an investigation on its own, despite changes APD had made to improve its policies. On Monday, Berry didn’t even bother to attend the council meeting to hear what citizens had to say in person.

Albuquerque mayors rarely attend council meetings, but it smacks of fear for the town’s top boss not to sit in the hot seat and face angry citizens. Despite previously scheduled meetings, Berry should have been there.

What happens in Albuquerque, of course, matters to the entire state. In Santa Fe, we are just an hour away, and residents here do everything from shopping to attending sports events, using the airport and taking classes at The University of New Mexico. No one wants to be afraid of the police when going about business in Albuquerque.

With strong action by the Department of Justice, that fear will dissipate and trust can be restored. Obviously, the deaths aren’t just about the police — and we always want to say that most officers work hard and do an outstanding job. The shootings in Albuquerque are stark reminder that we are not taking care of the mental health of our citizens.

Too many of the police-shooting victims are mentally ill, as was James Boyd. If we do not treat the underlying cause, as opposed to the symptoms, the confrontations will not go away, no matter how many reforms are enacted.

Key to any lasting reform is a redefinition by police of their jobs. It can no longer be “us versus them.” That mentality is creeping in to training for New Mexico State Police officers, and it must be stopped before it takes hold. That too many Albuquerque officers view the rest of the world as potential criminals, and have for years, is clear in their crisis reactions. It is that attitude, first and foremost, that we believe the Department of Justice must root out.

Closer to home, in Santa Fe, we want to remain vigilant that police officers do not cross the line. A recent incident in which a taxi cab driver was slammed to the ground on a traffic stop deserves close scrutiny (professional drivers, too, should know better than to leave the car during a stop).

Examining the stop doesn’t mean the officer did anything wrong, but we do not want city officials to ignore warning signs, as happened for years in Albuquerque.

The police — whether local or state — have a difficult job. Restoring citizens’ trust in officers’ competence and good intent can only make that job easier.

NEW YORK — Game of Thrones rules.

On the heels of its explosive fourth season premiere, HBO has renewed the epic fantasy series for two more years.

Based on the best-selling book series by George R.R. Martin, Game of Thrones is set on the exotic, often war-torn continent of Westeros. Cast regulars include Peter Dinklage, Lena Headey, Charles Dance, Natalie Dormer and Indira Varma. Sunday’s season debut was seen by 6.6 million viewers.

‘Dueling Banjos’ guitarist Arthur Smith dies at 93

UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. ow Comcast is mouse hunting on both coasts.

After pouring money into its Universal Resort in Orlando, Fla., Comcast is increasing spending at Universal Studios Hollywood, unveiling a smattering of new attractions on Tuesday that — when combined with previously announced sections devoted to Harry Potter and Despicable Me — will leave 70 percent of the California park remade by 2016.

The enhancements, part of a $1.6 billion overhaul of the park and adjacent movie studio, are designed to keep Universal’s thrill-ride fans coming back but also to attract families with young children, a lucrative audience that Universal until recently left almost entirely to nearby Disneyland.

“We’re trying to significantly broaden our base,” said Larry Kurzweil, president of Universal Studios Hollywood, which drew roughly 6 million visitors last year. “This isn’t about adding rides. It’s about a complete transformation.”

He may not be exaggerating. When Universal Orlando opened the Wizarding World of Harry Potter four years ago, that resort went from an also-ran to a must-visit almost overnight. Year-on-year attendance shot up 30 percent as families swarmed the snowcapped shops of Hogsmeade and rode three Potter-themed rides.

To prepare for a similar surge here — a Wizarding World will open at this hilltop park in 2016 — Comcast’s NBCUniversal is adding thousands of parking spaces, spending about $100 million to improve transit and planning two 500-room hotels.

But those efforts are crumbs compared to what is planned inside the gates.

On Saturday a Despicable Me attraction called Minion Mayhem will begin transforming riders into furry yellow Minions and taking them on a topsy-turvy excursion. Also

opening is a water-themed play area called Super Silly Fun Land, a version of the seaside carnival from Despicable Me. “That is our first real kiddie ride,” Kurzweil said during a pre-opening tour, pointing to a contraption called Silly Swirly, a new brightly colored offering similar to Disney’s flying Dumbo attraction, except with exotic bugs instead of elephants. “I rode it earlier myself,” he added with a smile.

The park, which will soon celebrate its 50th anniversary, said that it would also expand its Simpsons ride to include an entire themed village. The area, similar to one at Universal Orlando but more expansive, will add about a dozen restaurants and shops to the center of the park and open next year.

Also coming next year, the company said Tuesday, will be Fast & Furious — Supercharged, a movie-thrill ride hybrid in which occupants of Universal’s famed back-lot trams will be encircled by 400-foot-long movie screens.

To some degree, the remaking of Universal Studios Hollywood is less about stealing market share from Disney than catching up after years of semi-neglect. Universal’s California outpost has occasionally added new attractions, including a Transformers ride in 2012 and a King Kong experience in 2010. But Universal’s various recent owners — General Electric, Vivendi, Seagram — were all more interested in wringing cash from the theme parks than putting any in.

In contrast, the Walt Disney Co. was investing heavily in its two-park Disneyland Resort 35 miles to the south in Anaheim, Calif. Disney recently spent $1 billion to expand its California Adventure park there, for instance.

Comcast has discovered — to its surprise — that theme parks represent one of the few areas of stable entertainment industry growth outside of cable television.

Universal parks had operating income of about $1 billion last year, up 5.3 percent from a year earlier, according to financial filings.

Report dings Sunshine Portal for dearth of subsidies data

CHAVEZ CENTER SPRING BREAK INSPIRATION

State transparency website sees bump in score, but gets a C-minus

By Steve Terrell The New Mexican

New Mexico’s Sunshine Portal — a state government website intended to give the public access to information about government spending, including budgets, contracts and employee salaries — earned a grade of “C-plus” in a report released Tuesday that evaluated such websites in all states.

“Each state’s transparency website was analyzed and assigned a grade based on its search-ability and the breadth of information provided,” said a statement from the Public Interest Research Group Education Fund, which published the report called “Following the Money 2014: How the 50 States Rate in Providing Online Access to Government Spending Data.”

“State governments across the country have become more transparent about where public money goes, providing citizens with the information they need to hold elected officials and recipients of public subsidies accountable,” said Sean Foran, program director for the state’s chapter of the organization. “We’re hoping that New Mexico will be a leader next year.”

The state’s score improved from a 73 last year to a 77 this year.

Foran said the report shows that New Mexico has “comprehensive and easy-to-access checkbook-level spending information but limited information on subsidies.”

The state scored nearly perfect on the information it has on contracts and expenditures. However, New Mexico’s score suffered seriously in areas dealing with economic-development subsidies to private companies.

AD WATCH GOVERNOR’S RACE

Martinez leaps into campaign season with soft TV spot

By Steve Terrell The New Mexican

Although Gov. Susana Martinez has no Republican primary opponent this year, on Tuesday she became the first gubernatorial candidate to launch a television ad for the 2016 election campaign.

Typical of first ads in a campaign season, it’s a softfocus spot that talks about the incumbent candidate and her accomplishments, never mentioning any of the five Democrats who want her job.

However, in an email announcing the ad, campaign spokesman Chris Sanchez said, “Gov. Martinez is running a hopeful and optimistic campaign that highlights her reforms to move New Mexico forward, while our opponents continue their shrill, negative attacks aimed at returning our state to the failed policies of Bill Richardson.”

The commercial, which was produced by McCleskey Media of Albuquerque, the company run by Martinez political consultant Jay McCleskey, will be running statewide on broadcast and cable outlets, the campaign said.

In brief

Mayor welcomes release of probe ALBUQUERQUE — Albuquerque Mayor Richard Berry says he welcomes the upcoming release of long-awaited results of a federal investigation into complaints of civil rights violations and allegations of excessive use of force by the city’s police department.

The Department of Justice will release its investigation’s results Thursday.

That comes in the wake of two recent fatal shootings, including the death of homeless camper James Boyd in the Albuquerque foothills following a long standoff with officers.

Berry told KOB-TV that the release of the investigation’s results will be welcome because it will be “an important starting point” for the city to move forward.

Under scrutiny for recent police shootings and what critics say is a long-standing culture of abuse, the Albuquerque Police Department says it is bringing a commander out of retirement to oversee reforms.

Chief Gorden Eden Tuesday announced retired Albuquerque Police Department Commander Robert Huntsman will be returning as his

fourth deputy chief.

Among the areas he will oversee will be implementation of Department of Justice findings, the Internal Affairs Unit, the Academy and overall training.

Forty-eight people have applied to be named Santa Fe’s next police chief, and Mayor Javier Gonzales has formed a citizens committee to screen the applications.

The eight members of the committee “broadly represent” constituencies throughout the city that work with the police department daily, Gonzales said Tuesday.

“I really believe that the more people who are involved in this process of selecting a chief, the better opportunity for a chief to have a community behind him when they’re ultimately selected,” Gonzales said.

Maria Jose Rodriguez Cadiz, executive director of the Solace Crisis Treatment Center, will chair the Police Chief Citizen Screening Committee. Other members include Miranda Viscoli of New Mexicans for Gun Safety; downtown business owner Jack Sweeney; Matthew Martinez, president of the police union; Jess Clark, who will represent the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and youth community; Marcela Diaz, executive director of Somos Un Pueblo Unido, an advocacy group for immigrants; and attorney David Garcia.

The city’s interim Human Resources director, Sandra Perez, has been assigned to assist the committee, which is expected to pass its findings on to City Manager Brian Snyder by the end of the month, if not early May. Snyder will have the ultimate hiring authority under the city charter, and his choice is not limited to the candidates recommended by the screening committee.

The city received applications from candidates throughout New Mexico and around the country, including California, Texas, Pennsylvania, Illinois, New York and Florida.

Several of the applicants are from Santa Fe, including Ray Byford, Cres Archuleta, Charles Dalton, Michael Sisernos and Jerry Trujillo. However, the list doesn’t include either of the deputy chiefs who were placed in interim command of the department — John Schaefl and George Ortiz — after the March retirement of Chief Ray Rael.

Gonzales said he wants a chief who can lead, motivate and be accessible to the community, among other characteristics.

Second suit filed to keep Jeff’s name off ballot

New Mexico Supreme Court Justice Barbara Vigil has been sworn in as chief justice of the state’s highest court.

The five members of the court select a chief justice for a two-year term to preside over the court.

Vigil was sworn in Barbara Vigil as chief justice last week.

She replaced Justice Petra Jimenez Maes, who had been chief justice since 2012 and who remains on the court.

Vigil was elected to the state’s highest court in 2012.

She previously had served more than 12 years as a District Court judge in the First Judicial District of Santa Fe, Los Alamos and Rio Arriba counties.

Vigil is a graduate of The University of New Mexico law school.

A lawsuit seeking to keep incumbent state Rep. Sandra Jeff’s name off the June Democratic primary ballot was filed Monday in Santa Fe. Larry J. King filed the suit, which names Secretary of State Dianna Duran as a defendant, in hopes of keeping Jeff’s name from being printed on the ballot while the state Supreme Court considers his appeal of an earlier court challenge that aimed to knock Jeff out of the District 5 race to represent parts of McKinley Sandra Jeff and San Juan counties.

Last month, a Gallup district judge ruled in Jeff’s favor on a technicality that she was improperly notified of the challenge by the Secretary of State’s Office. King’s original suit, bankrolled by Conservation Voters New Mexico, challenged the validity of numerous signatures on Jeff’s petition for candidacy. Jeff, a Democrat who lists her town of residence as Crownpoint, submitted 91 signatures and needed 78 to reach the primary ballot.

By law, ballots for the June 3 primary election must be printed by April 18. Including Jeff on the ballot along with her challengers, Charles Long and Doreen Johnson, would only confuse voters if Jeff is disqualified, King’s suit argues.

Jeff made headlines during this year’s legislative session when she joined Republicans to oppose the first version of the budget and skipped a vote to raise the minimum wage. Vice President Joe Biden had called Jeff urging her to support the wage hike.

LOCAL & REGION

Ad: No mention of divisive ‘wedge issues’ Continued from Page B-1 Here’s a look at the spot: Title: “Helping People” Duration: 60 seconds Text: Announcer: “Four years ago. A national recession. Federal budget cuts hit us hard.

So New Mexico chose bold.

The first Hispanic woman governor in American history.

Susana Martinez.”

Martinez: “Being governor has never been about making a name for myself. It’s about making a difference in the lives of New Mexicans.”

Announcer: “Largest deficit ever, gone without raising taxes. Bipartisan jobs package.

Cut taxes 24 times. Number one in export growth. Improving our schools. Graduation rates up. Hispanics lead the nation on Advanced Placement tests.”

Martinez: “I grew up knowing what it’s like to struggle and how we all help one another. Helping people.

It’s the best part about being governor. Helping kids read by the third grade so they can chase their dreams. Helping small businesses create good jobs. There’s more to do, but I believe in New Mexico and that tomorrow will be better than today.”

Announcer: “She’s our governor. Susana Martinez.”

Description: When the ad starts, the numerals “2010” flash across the screen. As the narrator talks about the recession and federal budget cuts, there are images of stock market prices and the national Capitol. Then there’s a pretty scene of New Mexico mountains followed by Martinez being sworn into office on the Santa Fe Plaza on Jan. 1, 2011.

When Martinez begins to talk, she’s at a ranch, dressed casually in a blue denim jacket.

Then she’s hugging a woman, perhaps at some campaign event.

The scene switches to Martinez signing a document in front of what looks like an antique desk. There’s various footage of the governor at a public bill signing, then walking near a backhoe with her husband, at a school playground, then inside a classroom reading to children. When the narrator says, “Hispanics lead the nation on Advanced Placement tests,” there’s a dark-haired young woman writing something behind two stacks of books.

This is followed by Martinez family photos, footage of her walking with her sister; talking to a little girl; back in a classroom; talking to people in what looks like a restaurant; talking to a mother with a baby; then back to the ranch.

In the last frame, she’s hugging a little girl.

Analysis: Starting out with a large cash advantage over her Democratic opponents, Martinez has the luxury of being

able to try to define her image before her opponents have even started media campaigns.

Unlike her 2010 race, when her first ad was a blistering attack on one of her Republican primary opponents, Martinez can start off this race by appealing to moderates on issues such as taxes, balancing the budget and education instead of throwing red meat to her political base. There is no mention of divisive “wedge issues” such as illegal immigration and, unlike some of her recent fundraising letters, no harsh rhetoric about “union bosses.”

In talking about the eliminating the projected budget deficit in 2011, the ad greatly simplifies what actually happened and leaves the impression that Martinez single-handedly solved a looming crisis.

Actually, five days after Martinez was inaugurated in January 2011, the Legislative Finance Committee announced its budget. In that proposal, state employees, including teachers, would have to contribute more to their pensions. This accounted for about a quarter of the $194 million in budget savings.

Martinez later presented her own budget proposal before the 2011 legislative session began. It wasn’t significantly different than the one the Legislative Finance Committee had proposed. There were several compromises during the 60-day session, but in the end, the Legislature passed a $5.4 billion budget — which was balanced, with no tax increases. Martinez signed it but made line-item vetoes that sliced $1.9 million from recurring government spending and $2.6 million in one-time spending items.

Asked about this, spokesman Sanchez said, “The balanced budget that passed after the first session was the result of a compromise between the governor and the Democratic Legislature.” He said some Democrats had been in favor of tax increases.

While the ad speaks of helping small businesses create new jobs and increasing exports, it doesn’t mention that New Mexico has lagged behind its neighbors in creating new jobs since the recession.

“There’s no question that New Mexico’s dependence on federal spending in a time of massive federal budget cuts and dysfunctional government in the nation’s capital has led to job losses, which is why helping small businesses grow to diversify our economy is so important,” Sanchez said.

“In fact, New Mexico has seen private sector job gains, while jobs tied to federal government spending have been lost. And that’s why Gov. Martinez has been fighting to diversify our economy, so we are less reliant on federal spending.”

“As we look to what’s going on in Albuquerque between the community and the police force, it’s important that we recognize that as a community we’re not immune from what’s going on in Albuquerque,” he said, referring to public outrage over a series of fatal officer-involved shootings by members of the Albuquerque Police Department.

“We have to have a chief of police that can develop a workforce that is more than just being a protector but somebody who is able to engage the community and help to defuse situations, help to provide comfort when it’s needed, certainly to be strong when they need to

Legislative staff sought data on candidate The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — A Republican lawmaker asked the Attorney General’s Office Tuesday to investigate whether an ethics law was violated by a quickly withdrawn legislative staff request for law enforcement records on a Democratic legislator’s election opponent.

Attorney General Gary King’s spokesman Phil Sisneros said the office will review the request by Rep. Monica Youngblood of Albuquerque and likely will look into the matter.

Legislative Finance Committee Director David Abbey on March 6 requested records involving any hunting and fishing violations by a man running against Democratic Rep. Patricia Lundstrom of Gallup, the Albuquerque Journal reported. Abbey withdrew the request for records on Olin Clawson the same day, after Lundstrom said there

had been a “miscommunication” between herself and a legislative staffer.

Lundstrom said she had asked the legislative staff how the records could be legally requested. She said she had the request for records withdrawn after learning it had been made.

Youngblood said in a letter to the attorney general that the request appeared to violate the Governmental Conduct Act by using legislative staff for political purposes to “dig dirt up” on Lundstrom’s Democratic primary election opponent.

GOP Gov. Susana Martinez’s office also contends the request by legislative staff was inappropriate.

“The LFC shouldn’t be in the business of doing political campaign research on those who are running against its members,” Martinez spokesman Enrique Knell said in a statement. Knell said Abbey’s

request was made under a state law intended to make information available for official state business. “It’s concerning, and it’s wrong,” Knell said in a statement, referring to the request.

The flap over the Lundstrom request comes in the wake of criticism by topranking lawmakers of a new Martinez policy directing that legislative information requests be funneled through Martinez’s office.

In the days before Abbey sent his request, a Legislative Finance Committee analyst contacted a Game and Fish staffer on behalf of Lundstrom.

Game and Fish Deputy Director Dan Brooks then told Lundstrom and the Legislative Finance Committee analyst they would have to file a public records request.

No such request under the state Inspection of Public Records Act was filed, either

by Lundstrom or the legislative

DEAL CLOSES FOR LA CASTAÑEDA HOTEL The La Castañeda Hotel in Las Vegas, N.M., was built in the late 1890s as a Harvey House.

Developer Allan Affeldt has purchased the property, with plans to renovate it and help revitalize the city.

A

$3.5 million in La Castañeda to restore the guest rooms and restaurant/bar of the hotel, which opened in 1899 but is currently vacant.

Affeldt also is negotiating the purchase of the Plaza Hotel in Las Vegas, which dates to the early 1880s.

Affeldt said in an earlier New Mexican story that Las Vegas has “the prettiest downtown in the Southwest,” and that his purchase of the two old hotels could trigger an economic and cultural revival there.

Feds sued over jaguar protections The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — Two environmental groups are threatening to sue the federal government over protections for endangered jaguars in the Southwest. The Animal Welfare Institute and WildEarth Guardians contend in their notice of intent to sue that the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services has failed to ensure its activities won’t harm the elusive cats or their habitat.

Wildlife Services uses traps and snares as part of the agency’s work to target other animals. The groups say that work could affect the jaguar and its prey,

PHOTO COURTESY NEW MEXICO HISTORY MUSEUM/ PALACE OF THE GOVERNORS

rizona-based entrepreneur Allan Affeldt closed Tuesday on his purchase of the historic La Castañeda Hotel in Las Vegas, N.M., for an undisclosed price.

Affeldt and his wife previously restored the La Posada Hotel in Winslow, Ariz., for a reported $12 million.

The list price for the 25,000-squarefoot La Castañeda was $450,000. Like La Posada, it was built as a Harvey House to serve people traveling on the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway.

Affeldt told The New Mexican in March that he will have to invest at least

agency, according to Game and Fish. Public records requests are authorized in a different section of law from the one allowing the Legislature to ask for data and documents.

Clawson, one of the three Democrats running against Lundstrom, acknowledged he has faced hunting-related allegations in the past, including a trespassing charge.

He told the Journal that those charges were dismissed, however, and that he had not heard of the request for his violation record until being contacted by the newspaper.

Meanwhile, the Legislative Finance Committee’s chairman, Rep. Luciano “Lucky” Varela, said that he has cautioned legislative aides to be cautious about lawmakers’ requests for certain types of information. “We have to be careful we don’t start looking for political information and requesting the staff [to help],” the Santa Fe Democrat said.

which would amount to a violation of the federal Endangered Species Act. Another concern is the agency’s use of pesticides in the area to control a bollworm known to wreak havoc on cotton fields. The groups are seeking an end to all activities that could have a negative effect on the cat’s habitat.

“Wildlife Services can no longer blindly pretend that jaguars do not have a place in the American Southwest,” said Tara Zuardo, an attorney with the Animal Welfare Institute. “Employing indiscriminate, dangerous lethal control methods in occupied jaguar habitat is a severe threat to the species’ recovery and must end now.”

The report says some states improved their grades after they responded to a list of questions that researchers sent to the agencies in each state that oversee the transparency websites. However, New Mexico was one of five states that didn’t respond.

Asked why his department didn’t respond, Estevan Lujan, spokesman for New Mexico’s Department of Information Technology, said, “This year there were no major structural changes to the Sunshine Portal since the last U.S. PIRG report, and our department had no responses to their request for feedback on their scoring criteria. Only minor changes were made to the portal in regard to our processes and management of the portal.”

Lujan added, “Although our letter grade did not change, our department is happy to see an increase in our overall score even with higher grading standards required this year and we feel the improved score is due to those improvements. [The department] will always work with organizations such as U.S. PIRG and others to exchange ideas on how we can make transparency work better for all New Mexicans.”

The states that received the highest ratings for transparency websites — all “A-minus” grades — were Indiana, Florida, Oregon, Florida, Texas, Massachusetts, Iowa, Vermont and Wisconsin.

States that got grades of F were California, Alaska and Idaho.

The report explains that the political leanings of a state had little to do with how well the state scored in the report.

“States with a Democratic governor averaged a transparency score of 78.1 in our study — near the average score of those states with Republican governors, 74.9,” the report says.

“Likewise, there was no significant difference in the average transparency score of states with single-party, Democratic legislatures (74.9) and those with single-party, Republican legislatures (75.4). Similarly, states that voted for Gov. [Mitt] Romney in the 2012 presidential election had almost the same average transparency score (74.8) as did states that voted for President Obama (77.7).”

wild: Expert says don’t move baby animals Continued from Page B-1 Center, where it could be cared for until it was old enough to be released.

A week later, Game and Fish Conservation Officer Megan Morales found an adult female bobcat and two kittens in an Eldorado barn and brought them to the center. The bobcat mother raised the abandoned kitten along with her two.

It is better for wildlife young to be raised by other wildlife than by humans, according to both Wildlife Center staff and Rick Winslow, the Game and Fish Department’s bear and cougar biologist.

“Truly rehabilitated animals retain their natural fear of humans and their power to defend and feed themselves without our help,” Winslow said in a statement. “Wild animals need these instincts if they are going to make it out here.”

The Wildlife Center also worked with the Game and Fish Department to release a rehabilitated bear on Monday,

said Katherine Eagleson, the center’s executive director.

Eagleson said spring is when people tend to find bunnies, baby foxes, coyote pups and other young wildlife. Often, she said, mothers will leave their young hidden in grass or under trees while they go out to feed, and then they will come back later to take care of the babies.

Eagleson said many well-meaning people make the mistake of moving young wildlife. And when the mothers return, their babies are gone. Unless people find a young animal in their home or garage, obviously injured or with its dead mother nearby, Eagleson suggests leaving the wildlife alone.

“Don’t assume they have been abandoned by their mothers,” she said. “Think first before you take them somewhere.”

Eagleson said since the beginning of March, more than two dozen cottontail bunnies have been brought to the center.

“Most of them would be OK if people would leave them alone,” she said. “Just

because nobody sees the mom doesn’t mean she isn’t around. Leave them and keep your cats indoors.”

Eagleson said in June, people often see fawns alone under trees or bushes.

Again, she said, “moms are notorious for leaving their fawns in the shade and being gone all day to feed and then coming back.

“When fawns are first born, they have no scent, so they’re pretty safe [from predators]. If you see a fawn under shade, don’t assume its been abandoned by its mom.”

Today in history Today is Wednesday, April 9, the 99th day of 2014. There are 266 days left in the year.

Today’s highlight in history: On April 9, 1914, the Tampico Incident took place as eight U.S. sailors were arrested by Mexican authorities for allegedly entering a restricted area and held for a short time before being released.

Although Mexico offered a verbal apology, the U.S. demanded a more formal show of contrition; tensions escalated to the point that President Woodrow Wilson sent a naval task force to invade and occupy Veracruz, which in turn led to the downfall of Mexican President Victoriano Huerta.

Young volunteers are better pupils

Dear Annie: Did you know that an estimated 16 million youth participate in volunteer activities in the U.S. every year, and that by volunteering these young people will perform better in school?

These amazing kids do everything from collecting gently used books and developing literacy programs to creating anti-bullying campaigns in school districts. All of these remarkable youth have a common goal: to raise awareness and solve the problems facing the world today.

To celebrate their ingenuity, idealism and passion, please remind your readers that Global Youth Service Day (GYSD) will take place April 11-13, 2014. Last year, young people around the world came together and participated in nearly 3,500 projects. Additionally, thousands of community partners in more than 135 countries brought together millions of young people to strengthen their communities through the power of youth volunteering.

For more information, your readers can visit www.GYSD.org.

— Sincerely, Steven A. Culbertson, President and CEO, Youth Service America Dear Steven Culbertson: Thanks so much for letting us once again mention Global Youth Service Day. Young people all over the world do such fantastic and helpful volunteer work, not only on this day, but every day of the year. Global Youth Service Day provides more opportunities for everyone to get involved. We hope all of our readers, young and old, teachers and students, will check out your website.

Dear Annie: We have two grandchildren, a 2-year-old daughter of our son and a 2-year-old son of our daughter. The girl is four months older than her cousin.

We adore them both. The girl is smart and emotionally, physically and educationally way ahead of our grandson. She speaks in clearly understood sentences and already knows her alphabet and numbers. Our grandson, however, speaks very few words, cannot

string words together to make a sentence and obviously is behind.

They are both in preschool.

The argument is this. If our granddaughter continues on this bright path, she may test well for kindergarten ahead of her 5th birthday. Our daughter and my wife both think this would be horrible, and they want our son to hold his daughter back a year so that she will be in the same class as our grandson. I say my daughter and wife are the ones being horrible. No child should be held back if she is ready. And furthermore, there is no guarantee that our grandson will be ready when he is 5. Do they keep holding back his cousin? — Spinning the Wheel in Pennsylvania Dear Spinning: Your daughter is jealous that her niece is so much more advanced than her son, but please reassure her that this is meaningless. Toddler girls often progress faster than boys in these areas. And when a child is 2 years old, a four-month age difference is enormous.

These competitive arguments are pointless. Your granddaughter should not be held back for her cousin’s sake. He won’t care unless his mother and grandmother foolishly make it a cause for resentment. He’ll catch up. And the girl’s advanced knowledge may do her little good if there is no accelerated or gifted program. The kids should progress at their own rates.

Dear Annie: Just wanted to add my opinion to “Em from Indy” on handling silverware, whether hand-washed or put in the dishwasher. I believe silverware should always be put in with the handles up. This is so that when you reach to put them away, your hands are touching the handles and not the fork tines, spoon bowls or knife blades. People don’t appreciate knowing that your hands were on the parts that go into their mouths. — From a Dietitian

Without Tiger, the Masters has an open look

By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press

AUGUSTA, Ga. — One after another, some of the world’s best players and favorites to win the Masters trudged up the hill on the opening hole to start their practice rounds.

Phil Mickelson. Rory McIlroy.

Adam Scott.

It was typical of any Tuesday at Augusta National, except for the scoreboard to the right of where they were walking. The board has the names of all 97 players in the field, with blank boxes to put their scores when the tournament begins. On the far right side of the board is a list of this year’s noncompeting invitees.

Tommy Aaron. Doug Ford. Tiger Woods.

“It’s a weird feeling not having him here, isn’t it?” said Phil Mickelson, a three-time Masters champion and the chief foil for Woods over the years. “He’s been such a mainstay in professional golf and in the majors.

It’s awkward to not have him here. I hope he gets back soon. I hope he’s back for the other majors. As much as I want to win — and I know how great he is and tough to beat — it makes it special when he’s in the field and you’re able to win.”

Woods hasn’t been the same all year, even before back surgery last week. He is missing the Masters for the first time. His presence looms as large as some of the Georgia pines lining the fairways, though it will be forgotten when the opening shot is in the air Thursday, and a green jacket is awarded Sunday.

Even so, Woods brings a buzz to any tournament, even at Augusta National.

And this year, his absence has brought talk of the most wide-open Masters in nearly 20 years. Las Vegas has installed Scott and McIlroy as the betting favorites at 10-1, followed

by Mickelson, Jason Day and Matt Kuchar at 12-1.

Connecticut takes both men’s, women’s trophies

By Doug Feinberg

The Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Geno Auriemma and Connecticut stand alone in women’s college basketball, and they reached the top in unprecedented fashion.

The Huskies routed Notre Dame 79-58 in the first championship game featuring undefeated teams, winning their record ninth national title. Auriemma broke a tie with Pat Summitt and Tennessee for most all-time, doing it in her backyard.

Breanna Stewart, who was The Associated Press Player of the Year, scored 21 points to lead the Huskies (40-0) while Stefanie Dolson added 17 points, 16 rebounds and seven assists. Auriemma took out his senior center with a minute left and the game well in hand with the pair embracing in a long hug.

“We beat a great, great team,” Auriemma said. “Notre Dame is a great team. For them to have the season they had and lose their starting center and to do what they did, I can’t say enough about their players, coaching staff and it took everything we have. I knew if we played great we’d have a chance to win.”

’Topes beat Reno for fourth straight win After three solo home runs, the Albuquerque Isotopes are winners of four straight games.

Miguel Olivo, Clint Robinson and Joc Pederson all hit solo blasts in a 4-3 Pacific Coast League road win over the Reno Aces on Tuesday. It was Pederson’s third home run of the season.

The Isotopes (4-1), were down 2-0 at the end of the first inning before Olivo, the Isotopes catcher, hit his homer in the bottom of the second.

Robinson’s shot in the in the fourth tied the score at 2-2, but Aces shortstop Didi Gregorious hit a ball to deep left-center that turned into an inside-the-park home run for a 3-2 Reno advantage in the fifth.

Pederson’s home run tied the game at 3-3 in the sixth, and outfielder Brian Cavazos-Galvez scored the go-ahead run from third base in the ninth inning when Aces left fielder Alfredo Marte fumbled the ball on a Walter Ibarra single.

Yimi Garcia (2-0) picked up the win after pitching scoreless seventh and eighth innings and allowing no hits, while striking out four batters.

Isotopes starter Red Patterson threw 3⅓ innings and allowed two runs. His reliever, Steve Smith, allowed Gregorious inside-the-park home run.

The Isotopes complete the four-game series with the Aces on Wednesday and Thursday before returning home for a four-game series with Tacoma to start a sevengame homestand.

curve, so I’ll say what I say every year: Maybe next winter.

Now that it’s getting warm again, I thought about picking up where I left off with golf. While that would be nice, I think that would only hold my attention for a little while, and I would need to supplement that with something else.

I also thought about getting into mountain biking. That would also be convenient since there are plenty of trails around town to choose from. I even had a friend offer to take me, but he is a hardcore rider with a bike that costs thousands of dollars. With the exception of the stationary bikes at the gym, I have not ridden a bicycle since I was a kid.

That should also point to the obvious fact that I don’t own a mountain bike, so that would be another big investment.

Also, he is a serious rider who relishes taking on huge jumps, and stationary bikes don’t prepare you for such endeavors.

Looks like I might need some painkillers for that, too.

New Mexico has a lot of outdoor activities to offer, and I feel like I am missing out on them by staying on my couch. While there is no shortage of anything good to watch on Netflix, I feel like a strange old hermit by staying inside all day.

But until I get that motivation to try something new and deal with the pain that comes with it, it looks like it’s the couch for me.

I want my weekends to start being exciting, so if you have any suggestions on outdoor activities I should give a try, drop me a line on Twitter @mundocarrillo.

Rangers’ 5-run third sparks win over Red Sox The Associated Press

BOSTON — Robinson Chirinos started a five-run third inning with his first homer of the season, and the Texas Rangers won 10-7 as the Boston Red Sox hit into five Rangers 10 double plays Tuesday night.

The Red Sox scored three Red Sox 7 runs in the ninth against Joakim Soria on an RBI single by Jonny Gomes and a two-run double by David Ortiz, but Mike Napoli struck out to end the game.

Boston’s five double plays were one fewer than the American League record for a nine-inning game shared by eight teams. The major league mark of seven was set by the San Francisco Giants in 1969.

ORIOLES 14, YANKEES 5 In New York, Delmon Young, Adam Jones and Matt Wieters homered as Baltimore teed off for 20 hits, battering the Yankees.

Young and Wieters each drove in three runs, and Jones delivered one of the Orioles’ four doubles at a half-empty Yankee Stadium.

Everyone in Baltimore’s starting lineup got a hit and scored a run. The Orioles posted their second-highest hit total in the Bronx, eclipsed only by a 22-hit outburst in 1986.

BLUE JAYS 5, ASTROS 2 In Toronto, Melky Cabrera homered for the fourth straight game, Jose Bautista also went deep, and the Blue Jays handed Houston its fifth loss in six games.

Cabrera hit a two-run shot off reliever Kevin Chapman in the seventh, connecting on an 0-2 pitch. Cabrera has hit more home runs in eight games this season than he did in 88 last year, when he missed time with leg injuries before having a benign tumor removed from his spine on Aug. 30.

RAYS 1, ROYALS 0 In Kansas City, Mo., James Loney hit an RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning to lift Tampa Bay over the Royals.

Rays starter Chris Archer wriggled out of two bases-loaded jams and went seven innings in an impressive pitchers’ duel between top young arms. Royals rookie Yordano Ventura dazzled in

his 2014 debut, holding Tampa Bay to two hits in six shutout innings.

INTERLEAGUE INDIANS 8, PADRES 6 In Cleveland, David Murphy hit a three-run homer and had four RBIs as the Indians took advantage of outdoor batting practice and San Diego’s sloppiness in their delayed interleague series opener.

Murphy’s shot in the fourth inning off Tyson Ross (0-2) gave the Indians a 6-2 lead. He added an RBI double in the sixth and is 6 for 8 with five RBIs in his past two games.

Corey Kluber (1-1) pitched six solid innings.

John Axford stopped a rally in the ninth for his third save.

WhITE SOx 15, ROCKIES 3 In Denver, Jose Abreu and Avisail Garcia each hit two of Chicago’s six homers, powering the White Sox to a win over the Rockies.

Jose Quintana pitched seven sharp innings, and Tyler Flowers and Alexei Ramirez also went deep for their first homers of the season. The White Sox had six total homers before Tuesday’s fireworks.

The long balls were the first of the season for both Garcia and Abreu, the Cuban slugger who signed a $68 million, six-year contract in October.

thIs Date IN baseball april 9

1965 — The Houston Astrodome opened with an exhibition game between the New York Yankees and Astros. President Johnson attended and Gov. John Connally threw out the first ball. Mickey Mantle hit the first home run, but the Astros won 2-1 in 12 innings.

2000 — In a 13-7 win over Kansas City, Minnesota’s Ron Coomer, Jacque Jones and Matt LeCroy hit consecutive home runs. The Royals’ Carlos Beltran, Jermaine Dye and Mike Sweeney repeated the feat, marking the first time in major league history both teams hit three consecutive home runs in the same game.

2003 — Detroit became the second major league team to start successive seasons 0-7 after a 9-6 loss to Kansas City. The Tigers started 0-11 last year.

The 1962-63 New York Mets started 0-9 and 0-8 in their first two seasons.

NATIONAL LEAGUE

Milwaukee beats Philadelphia The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — Ryan Braun hit three home runs and tied a franchise record with seven Brewers 10 RBIs to lead the Phillies 4 Milwaukee Brewers over the Phillies 10-4 Tuesday, spoiling Philadelphia’s home opener.

Coming off a three-game sweep of the World Series champion Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park, the Brewers won their fourth straight game and improved to 5-2.

Kyle Lohse (1-1) allowed three runs and seven hits, walking five.

Braun connected twice off Kyle Kendrick (0-1), snapping the longest homerless drought of his career. The 2011 NL MVP came in with only three singles in 20 at-bats this season.

But Braun, who is bothered by a right thumb injury, felt just fine, as usual, in Philadelphia. He has 10 homers and 21 RBIs in 20 career games at Citizens Bank Park.

GIANTS 7, DIAMONDBACKS 3 In San Francisco, Michael Morse hit a two-run single to back Tim Hudson as each made memorable home debuts with their new team, and Brandon Belt hit a two-run homer for the Giants.

Hudson (2-0) shut down the D-backs for the second time in seven days with an eightinning gem in his first outing at AT&T Park since agreed to a $23 million, two-year contract in November.

Belt’s drive off Trevor Cahill (0-3) gave him five homers and the Giants a majors-leading 12.

New Giants left fielder Morse emphatically pumped his fist at first base after a third-inning single, then added a two-out double in the fifth.

NATIONALS 5, MARLINS 0 In Washington, Gio Gonzalez threw six crisp innings to lead the Nationals.

Gonzalez allowed three singles and two walks. He allowed one baserunner to get as far as second, and struck out five hitters. He retired his last 10 batters and is 2-0 with a 0.75 ERA. Adam LaRoche had three hits and drove in a run off Henderson Alvarez (0-2).

Anthony Rendon went 2 for 4 with three RBIs as Washington improved to 5-2.

Miami entered an NL-best 5-2, a year after finishing with a league-high 100 losses. Led

by Giancarlo Stanton, the Marlins were averaging a majorsbest six runs a game, but they couldn’t solve Gonzalez or four relievers.

METS 4, BRAVES 0 In Atlanta, Bartolo Colon combined with two relievers on an eight-hitter, Ruben Tejada drove in two runs with two hits, and New York beat the Braves.

Jose Valverde loaded the basses in the ninth before Jason Heyward flied to the warning track in center field to end it.

The 40-year-old Colon (1-1) was dominant through seven innings. He gave up six hits and no walks, struck out five and didn’t allow more than one baserunner in any inning until the seventh as he outpitched Atlanta’s Aaron Harang (1-1).

Tejada scored on a wild pitch by Harang in the third and had run-scoring singles in the seventh and eighth innings.

CARDINALS 7, REDS 5 In St. Louis, Matt Holliday hit a go-ahead two-run double in the sixth inning that glanced off right fielder Jay Bruce’s glove on the warning track, and the Cardinals beat Cincinnati.

Yadier Molina homered and Peter Bourjos had three hits and an RBI to help the Cardinals clinch their 26th series win to go with three losses and two splits since 2003 against Cincinnati.

Bruce had a two-run triple in the first, Billy Hamilton’s second hit of the season drove in a run and Ryan Ludwick had two RBIs for the Reds.

The Reds squandered a 4-0 second-inning lead by the bottom half of the inning, and Lance Lynn (2-0) got enough support to beat Cincinnati for the second straight time.

PIRATES 7, CUBS 6 In Chicago, Pedro Alvarez had two hits and two RBIs and Pittsburgh overcame two home runs by Starlin Castro to beat the Cubs.

Russell Martin drove in the go-ahead run on a sacrifice fly in the eighth inning for Pittsburgh and Jason Grilli closed with a perfect ninth.

Cubs right-hander Pedro Strop (0-1) walked two batters in the eighth and recorded only one out before being replaced by left-hander James Russell. Russell immediately walked Pedro Alvarez to load the bases and Martin followed with a fly ball to right field that made it 7-6.

The Cubs tied the game in the seventh against Tony Watson (1-0) on Anthony Rizzo’s hit up the middle scoring Emilio Bonifacio, who went 3 for 5 and is batting .515.

sPorts PREP ROUNDUP

Demonettes edge past Santa Fe Indian School The New Mexican

It’s spring break for Santa Fe Public Schools, and the Santa Fe High softball team decided to take a break from District 2AAAA competition SFHS 10 Tuesday.

SFIS 7 It was no vacation for the Demonettes, as they narrowly snuck past Santa Fe Indian School with a 10-7 win at home.

With the game tied 7-7 in the bottom of the sixth inning, Santa Fe High freshman catcher Alayna Montoya hit a three-run home run to give the Demonettes (8-4) the lead. It was also Montoya’s second home run of the day.

“She’s very athletic and she hits the ball hard,” Santa Fe High head coach Keith Richards said. “The bats came alive, and that helped us get the ‘W.’ ” Santa Fe High senior second baseman Mykala Porras hit a solo home run in the fifth inning, which set up a solo homer by Montoya that gave the Demonettes a 7-5 lead. Alex Russell pitched all seven innings for Santa Fe High and had four strikeouts.

SFIS (5-10) was led by Shina Roanhorse, who went 3-for-4 and scored two runs.

Alexis Quam was 3-for-3 with an RBI and a run, and Angela Martinez was 3-for-4 with two runs scored.

Mccurdy 14, Mora 0 (five innings) After a nondistrict season that pitted

the Lady Bobcats against the Class AAA and AAAA programs, they were more than ready for their District 2A-AA opener.

It helps that McCurdy (2-8 overall) has pitching ace Tenisha Velazquez back, and she pitched a no-hitter, allowing one walk while striking out 11 Rangerettes. She also went 3-for-3 as the Lady Bobcats knocked out Mora’s pitching.

Maria Elena Rendon went 4-for-4 with a home run that landed in the baseball field that is right next to the softball field.

“Our field is one of the furthest fields in the state and she cleared it like it was nothing,” said Nathan Velasquez, McCurdy head coach.

Maraia and Carla Santos, as well as Alannah Sanchez, went 3-for-3 for the Lady Bobcats.

BASEBALL Pecos 12, Mora 0 (five innings) The Panthers only had three hits, but that didn’t stop them from pulling out a 6AA win over the Rangers.

Eli Varela went 2-for-2 at the plate with two runs scored and six RBIs for Pecos (9-4, 2-0) while Isaac Valencia went 1-2 with two runs scored and 2 RBIs. Mora senior pitcher Manuelray Benavidez did all the rest as he walked 17 batters to put the Rangers (1-5, 0-1) in a hole.

Even though Benavidez was wild, the Panthers weren’t chasing many of his offerings.

“The thing I was most happy about was

our discipline at the plate,” Pecos head coach Augustine Ruiz said. “They laid off the high stuff and were being very selective.”

Joe Duran pitched the distance for Pecos and allowed two hits and three walks and punched out nine batters.

Monte del sol 6, santa fe indian school 5 Monte del sol 12, sfis 2 (six innings) The Dragons made SFIS Athletic Complex their home away from home, as they were the host school for the doubleheader with the Braves, who played under interim head coach Zack Cole after Eric Sabiquie quit over the weekend.

In Game 1, Monte del Sol opened up a 6-2 lead after three innings and held on as the Braves chipped away with two runs in the fifth and one in the seventh. Peter Bartlett, the Dragons starter, held off the rally as he struck out the final two batters to preserve his complete game. He allowed four hits and five walks while striking out 10 and went 1-for-2 with two RBIs. “We’ve had our issues finishing games, but it was good for us to be put in that situation,” Monte del Sol head coach Frank Lucero said.

Monte del Sol scored in every inning in the nightcap after allowing SFIS a 2-0 lead in the first. The big inning was the bottom of the first, as the Dragons got RBI hits from Bartlett, Antonio Tapia and Kyle Brooke while Matt Montoya finished the five-run out burst with a two-RBI hit.

run: Pojoaque scores 126 runs over 9 games Continued from Page B-5 cer season — wasn’t completed until late March.

“I think coach DeHerrera has one of the nicest fields in the state, and it’s still not done,” Martinez said. “We wanted to make sure the field was complete to make sure the kids could play on it.”

There are some kinks to work out — for example, first base is about 8 inches too close to home plate, the dugouts are not complete yet — but the players were happy to have their own field on campus.

The Elkettes previously played at the Little League fields in Pojoaque, which is about 3 miles from the school.

“Playing here and practicing here is nice since we don’t have to go away from the school,” said junior pitcher Angelica Romero. “We get here and we practice. We don’t have to drive down [to the Little League complex] and wait for everyone to get there.”

Pojoaque did have to wait for its runs, though. After a scoreless first inning, Pojoaque (8-6 overall, 2-2 2AAA) scored three times in the second before exploding for 14 runs in the third to end the game in accordance with the 15-run, three-inning mercy rule. It took a while for the Elkettes to get their timing down against Taos starter Leticia Tavarez,

Pojoaque’s Angelica Romero pitches in the Elkettes’ first home game against Taos on Tuesday at Chris Peterson Field.

JANE PHILLIPS/THE NEW MEXICAN

but once they did, they put together 11 hits and coaxed four walks out of her in the final two frames.

As if that wasn’t enough, Pojoaque catcher Analisa Martinez was hit three times

by Tavarez, who also threw six wild pitches. Tavarez wasn’t helped by four Taos errors in the third inning that opened the floodgates. The final two came on Analisa Lovato’s grounder to Lady Tigers third baseman Feliz Espinoza with runners at second and third base with two outs in the bot-

tom of the third and Pojoaque holding a 14-2 lead.

Espinoza airmailed the ball past first baseman Darlene Trujillo, which allowed Romero and Christina Chavez to score and Lovato to race to third. Then, Trujillo’s throw back across the diamond sailed into foul territory and Lovato scored the final run.

“It was all over the place,” Lovato said of the throws. “We just focused and tried hitting the ball.”

Pojoaque has done a very good job of that lately, having

scored 126 runs over the last nine games after generating just nine in the first four. The Elkettes have scored 31 runs in the past two games — both 2AAA wins over Raton and the Lady Tigers (5-9, 0-2). That has Pojoaque head coach Ricky DeHerrera beaming.

Against Taos, Amber Sky Lujan was 2-for-2 with a double, three RBIs and two runs scored. Lovato finished with a 2-for-2 performance with a double, an RBI and two runs scored. First baseman Gabby Gonzales had a two-run double in the third that made it 12-2 What he likes is his team’s ability to adjust to pitchers after a couple of at-bats.

“It’s taking us one or two innings to adjust to a pitcher,” DeHerrera said. “But once we do, we’re hitting the ball. You could say it’s a lot of our practice, because we are practicing our hitting. But, no, the energy, the positiveness, it all adds up to the way they’re hitting.”

DeHerrera added that the Elkettes were excited about playing their first home game on campus, and it was an infectious atmosphere.

“You saw the crowd,” DeHerrera said. “Even the [junior varsity] baseball team was here supporting us. The girls knew they would get the crowd, but it’s just awesome to see the excitement and then them back it up.”

uconn: Huskies finish 40-0 with 9th title Continued from Page B-5 The victory also meant that UConn is now the center of the college basketball world with both the men’s and women’s teams winning the championship in the same year again. The men’s team beat Kentucky in the title game Monday night. This pair of victories came a decade after the Huskies became the only school to accomplish the feat.

“I couldn’t be prouder of what the men did last night,” Auriemma said.

Notre Dame coach Muffet McGraw congratulated the UConn coach when they shook hands after the game.

“I said something like, ‘I thought we were playing the Miami Heat for a while you guys are just that good.’ What a great season, you know things like that,” McGraw said. “I thought … LeBron was the only thing they were missing.”

While the names change at UConn, from Rebecca Lobo to Diana Taurasi, Maya Moore and now Stewart, Auriemma has been the constant, winning nine titles in only 20 seasons — including the last two.

He’s never lost in a national championship game.

“Congratulations to the UConn Huskies for winning the 2014 NCAA National Championship!,” Summitt said in a statement emailed to The Associated Press.

“My compliments also to coach Geno Auriemma for winning his ninth national title. He has accomplished this feat in record time.”

It was the fifth unbeaten season for Auriemma and UConn and the first time the Huskies went 40-0 — matching Baylor

as the only schools to accomplish that feat.

The victory was also Connecticut’s 46th straight dating back to last season’s NCAA tournament title run. It’s the third longest streak in school history — well short of the NCAA record 90 straight they won.

The loss was Notre Dame’s third in the title game in the past four years. Kayla McBride finished off her stellar career with 21 points to lead the Irish, who were looking for their first championship since 2001.

After proving to be no challenge for the Huskies during the first 15 years of the rivalry which began in 1995, Notre Dame had owned the series lately, winning seven of the previous nine meetings. UConn though has won the last two, eliminating Notre Dame in the Final Four last season before topping them in the championship game this year.

The two former Big East rivals, who have no love lost for each other, put on a show in a game that women’s basketball hoped could transcend the sport. The coaches added to the drama of the game with their verbal sparring on Monday. But it was Auriemma who got the last word again.

Even with the loss, it was a spectacular season for the Irish. Notre Dame lost Skylar Diggins to graduation and changed conferences to the ACC. Neither mattered as they ran through their opponents, winning by an average of 25.6 points while taking both the conference regular season and tournament championships.

The Irish lost senior Natalie Achonwa to a torn ACL in the regional final win over

Baylor. Notre Dame wore warmup shirts with Achonwa’s nickname “Ace” below her No. 11.

The team played inspired basketball in the Final Four win over Maryland where Notre Dame outrebounded the Terps by a record margin.

The Irish couldn’t muster a similar effort against UConn and it’s gigantic front line. Stewart, Dolson and Kiah Stokes dominated the interior. The Huskies outrebounded the Irish 54-31 and held them to a season-low in points.

After the teams traded shots early on, Stewart — who earned outstanding player of the tournament honors for the second straight season — fueled a 16-0 run as the Huskies, who have played stellar defense all season, held the Irish without a point for nearly five minutes. Stewart’s lay-in with 11:02 left made it 22-8.

A minute later, Dolson had an acrobatic tip to Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis for another layup.

The Irish stayed in the first half by hot 3-point shooting by Michaela Mabrey and Jewell Loyd.

Trailing 37-25 with 4:09 left in the first half, the pair sparked a 13-6 run, hitting three 3-pointers which brought the Irish faithful to their feet.

UConn led 45-38 at the half, shooting 57 percent from the field and having 16 assists on their 21 baskets.

The Huskies closed the door on any Irish comeback scoring 18 of the first 22 points in the second half to put the game away. Stewart and Dolson had 10 points during the burst.

ILITLA, Mexico — At the end of a long, dirt road in Mexico’s northeast jungle, two spiral staircases appear, leading nowhere amid an ornate concrete structure. Giant concrete fleur-de-lis flank a path, and tall bamboo-shaped columns surround a house with no walls. Oversize plaster orchids are in permanent bloom, while a natural waterfall ceaselessly flows down a mountain. if you go What: Las Pozas Where: Xilitla, Mexico, is the closest town, about 2 miles from the garden. Mexico City is a sevenhour drive, and Tampico is the nearest major airport, about four hours away.

Lodging: Accomodations can be found in Xilitla or at the Posada James Hotel near the park.

Cost: Entrance to the park is about $4.

Website: www.xilitla.org

This is Las Pozas, a dreamy, littleknown garden of surreal art, where sculptures evoke the ruins of ancient Greece but are overrun by exotic jungle plants. It was created by the late Edward James, a British multimillionaire and arts patron who favored surrealists like Rene Magritte and Salvador Dalí.

“Mr. Edward wanted to bewilder,” said Carlos Barbosa, a park guide.

He thought of the park “as a joke to a future civilization.”

And visitors are bewildered by Las Pozas, located on a 100-acre hillside where the Sierra Madre mountains and coastal plains of the northeast state of San Luis Potosi meet.

“I had seen videos and documents but I didn’t expect it to be so impressive,” said Vida Arellano, a tourist from the northern state of Chihuahua. “Once you are here, you are enveloped by nature, the sculptures, the architecture. … It transports you to a different mental state.”

Las Pozas means the pools.

The ferocity of the jungle in these hills of the Sierra Madre, a seven-hour drive from Mexico City, has destroyed many structures in the garden. But that didn’t bother

James, who liked to think that future archaeologists would discover his lost city and wonder what kind of civilization had built it, Barbosa said.

James inherited a fortune from his father and used the money to support the work of great surrealists, including Dalí, Magritte, Leonora Carrington and Remedios Varo.

Fascinated with Mexico, he arrived in San Luis Potosi in the mid-1940s, bought land through a Mexican friend and spent the next 20 years of his life building his garden.

The park was half-built by the time its creator died 30 years ago, but it remains an impressive work of art, with an air of mystery added by deterioration brought on by nature.

The original project, interestingly, had nothing to do with the garden’s ultimate design.

For years, James cultivated thousands of orchids on his land, but in 1962 a cold snap destroyed them, said Zaira Linan, the park’s assistant director. James then ordered workers to build cement flowers that weather couldn’t destroy, Linan said.

James’ imagination didn’t stop with the flowers. He began to design increasingly complex sculptures,

often inspired by artistic philosophies he encountered in his travels.

Barbosa recalled with amusement James’ many eccentricities, including the time he asked a cook to make a banquet for a menagerie of exotic animals he kept.

James “used to walk naked through the park, and even though he was a millionaire, he often slept in a sleeping bag among the weeds,” Barbosa said.

With park guides’ help, visitors can access the most remote corners of the park, including a concrete bed shaped like a tree leaf where James used to meditate and prepare for death.

But James didn’t die in his precious park. He died in 1984 in San Remo, Italy, when a stroke put an end to his delirious project.

In 1990, Gastelum’s son, who is also named Plutarco, opened the park to the public. He remembers James as a “tender” character whom he called “Uncle Eduardo.”

In 2007, Gastelum turned the garden over to a foundation so more resources could be devoted to preserving its 36 sculptures. Today it draws 75,000 visitors annually.

LONDON — Would you like some kitten with your coffee?

Feline company is exactly what one of London’s newest cafes is offering — and stressed-out city dwellers are lapping it up.

“People do want to have pets, and in tiny flats, you can’t,” said cafe owner Lauren Pears, who opened Lady Dinah’s Cat Emporium last month in an area east of the city’s financial district.

“There’s not many places in London you can just curl up with a book and chill out with a cat or two on your lap,” she said. “I think that’s what our success is down to.”

Cat cafes first took off 10 years ago in Japanese cities, where many people live alone in cramped highrise apartment blocks that don’t allow pets. Making feline friends became popular therapy for lonely or anxious workers.

“I can see how this would be good for someone lacking company,” said customer Sara Lewis, as she stroked a cat sitting on her lap. “It’s the best idea ever.”

The cozy English tea room, named after Alice’s cat in Alice in Wonderland, charges customers $8.29 for two hours of kitty company. Coffee and afternoon tea — sandwiches, cakes and scones — are on the menu at an additional cost.

Lady Dinah’s opened March 1, and is fully booked until the end of June.

Pears raised more than $181,000 through a crowdfunding campaign to get the cafe up and running.

Despite more than a year of planning permission delays and figuring out how to maintain health and safety standards, she says the hard work has been worth it.

The 11 resident kitties were donated by people leaving the country who could no longer look after them. Kitty welfare is paramount: The cats get regular breaks away from people, and staff have been trained by animal behaviorists to care for them.

Lisa Vann brought her 8-year-old daughter, who has learning difficulties, to Lady Dinah’s for a playdate.

“She’s delighted to be here,” she said.

The animal cafe craze shows no signs of slowing, with establishments now open in London, Vienna and Paris. A dog cafe, House of Hounds, is scheduled to open in London later this year.

And American animal-lovers won’t be missing out for much longer. Two cat cafes are due to open in the San Francisco Bay area by the end of 2014.

New museum is devoted to John Paul II

WADOWICE, Poland — A new museum in Poland is offering viewers a chance to see what it’s like to walk in the shoes of a saint — or at least to have a look at the black socks he wore for the journey.

With the late Pope John Paul II’s elevation to sainthood set for later this month, his hometown of Wadowice is celebrating with the grand opening of a $8.5 million multimedia facility to show the faithful about his steps in life.

The museum is opening Wednesday in the southern city of Wadowice, where Karol Wojtyla was born on May 18, 1920. It documents John Paul’s life from his youth as the son of an army officer, to priesthood and through the 26-year papacy that led to sainthood.

The museum features personal items like the sneakers and socks that the Rev. Wojtyla used in his kayaking and trekking excursions, his sunglasses, a plastic water bottle, family photos and the kneeler on which he prayed as a boy and teenager.

Also included is the Browning HP 9 mm handgun which Mehmet Ali Agca used in attempting to assassinate the pope May 13, 1981. Beside the gun is a photo of the pope meeting Agca in prison to bestow forgiveness, and a replica of the bullet that injured the pontiff.

The Rev. Dariusz Ras, the museum director, told The Associated Press on Monday he hopes that the new exhibition will reach out to a whole new generation of the faithful with recordings of speeches, videos and reconstruction of the house where he was born.

The idea is to “show the pope before the canonization throughout his life, at his birthplace, in a form that is best for the young generation,” he said.

Pope Francis is to canonize John Paul at the Vatican on April 27.
