A group of protesters in Ferguson, Mo., turn over a police vehicle Monday shortly after the announcement of the grand jury decision not to indict police officer Darren Wilson in the fatal shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed black 18-year-old.

CLAYTON, Mo. St. Louis County grand jury has brought no criminal charges against Darren Wilson, a white police officer who fatally shot Michael Brown, an unarmed African-American teenager, more than three months ago in nearby Ferguson. The decision by the grand jury of nine whites and three blacks was announced Monday night by the St. Louis County prosecutor, Robert P. McCulloch, at a news conference packed with reporters from around the world. The killing, on a residential street in Ferguson, set off weeks of civil unrest — and a national debate — fueled by protesters’ outrage over what they called a pattern of police brutality against young black men. McCulloch said Wilson faced charges ranging from first-degree murder to involuntary manslaughter. Word of the decision set off a

LOS ANGELES — Against the team of hackers, the poor car stood no chance. Meticulously overwhelming its computer networks, the hackers showed that — given time — they would be able to pop the trunk and start the windshield wipers, cut the brakes or lock them up, and even kill the engine. Their motives were not malicious. These hackers worked on behalf of the U.S. military, which along with the auto industry is scrambling to fortify the cyber defenses of commercially available cars before criminals and even terrorists penetrate them. “You’re stepping into a rolling computer now,” said Chris Valasek, who helped catapult car hacking into the public eye when he and a partner revealed last year they had

ALBUQUERQUE — New Mexico’s most powerful water planning commission voted Monday to notify the U.S. Interior Department that it wants to take advantage of federal funding to build a diversion and storage system along the Gila River, a project that is expected to cost hundreds of millions of dollars and take decades to complete. The Interstate Stream Commission also decided during its meeting in Albuquerque that some of the money should go toward municipal conservation efforts and other projects aimed at stretching the droughtstricken region’s water supplies. State Engineer Scott Verhines, New Mexico’s top water official and a member of the commission, said the point of regional water planning is to identify and implement strategies to balance supply and demand. He said the options approved by the commission will do that for cities and farms in southwestern New Mexico. Verhines conceded he’s concerned about the costs of the projects as well as the ability of the state and local governments to pay. “However, I’m personally unwilling to preclude the development of this water for New Mexico by preventing

Environmental, hunting groups raise concerns over state control By Staci Matlock The New Mexican
A movement to transfer millions of acres of federal public land to individual state control could gain political traction both in New Mexico and across the West with recent election gains by Republicans, opponents fear. Proponents of federal land transfers say states can do a better job of managing forests and grasslands on millions of acres of federal lands in New Mexico. In addition, the state would get a larger share of revenue from oil and gas royalties and leases on federal lands which it could use to manage those lands, said Rep. Yvette Herrell, R-Alamogordo. She twice introduced legislation to transfer public lands to the state, but it failed to pass. Herrell has said she plans to reintroduce a land transfer bill in the 2015 session. Opponents say the federal land transfer movement is just a way for private companies to gain control over public resources and it is the public that stands to lose. The New Mexico Wildlife Federation, a sportsmen’s association, opposes federal land transfer bills as do environmental groups. “The great majority of sportsmen and citizens

their favorite foods. The rules will have broad implications for public health. “This is one of the most important public health nutrition policies ever to be passed nationally,” said Margo Wootan, director of nutrition policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest. “Right now, you are totally guessing at what you are getting. This rule will change that.” The rules are far broader than consumer health advocates had expected, covering food in vending machines and amusement parks, as well as certain prepared foods in supermarkets. Perhaps the most surprising element of the new rules was the inclusion of alcoholic beverages, which had not been part
of an earlier proposal. Beverages served in food establishments that are on menus and menu boards will be included, but a mixed drink at a bar will not, FDA officials said. “It’s much tougher than the original,” said Marion Nestle, a professor at New York University. “I’m amazed.” Trade associations like the National Automatic Merchandising Association, which represents vending machine operators, and the National Grocers Association said they could not comment on the new rules without seeing them. Advocates praised the rules as a strong public education tool, but whether menu labeling actually has any effect on obesity and health is still an open question.

Stern said Monday that Beat poet and Kerouac friend Allen Ginsberg sent him the letter sometime in the 1950s, hoping he could get it published by Ace Books, for which Stern was a literary agent. “Soon thereafter Allen started that rumor,” he said. What really happened? Ginsberg sent the letter to Richard Emerson at Golden Goose Press and he didn’t bother to read it. When Emerson folded Golden Goose, he gave his archives, including the still-unopened letter, to a business associate who took the material home. There it stayed until Los Angeles performance artist Jean Spinosa was cleaning out her late father’s house two years ago. The auction house Profiles in History is putting the archive up for sale on Dec. 17. Only one question remains: Why did Ginsberg say Stern tossed the letter? “At the best he forgot that I gave it to him,” Stern said.

The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The stock market stayed at record levels on Monday as investors remained confident that stimulus measures from the world’s central banks would help revive global economic growth. Stocks have surged since bottoming out in a slump that stretched from mid-September to mid-October. The rally has been driven by optimism that central banks in Europe, China and Japan will take action to help invigorate economic growth outside the U.S., after the Federal Reserve ended its bond-buying stimulus program last month. “You clearly have momentum favoring stocks right now,” said Russ Koesterich, chief investment strategist at Blackrock. On Monday, gains were led by the so-called consumer discretionary sector, which includes retailers such as Coach, Urban Outfitters and Gap. These stocks should benefit most if the consumers go on a spending spree this holiday season. Telecommunications stocks were among the day’s biggest losers. Verizon and AT&T slumped after analysts at Citigroup published a gloomy review of the sector and predicted a tough year ahead for the two phone giants.

CLEVELAND — A Cleveland officer was less than 10 feet away when he fatally shot a 12-year-old boy carrying a pellet gun near a playground, and video of the shooting is clear about what happened, police said Monday. The boy was confronted Saturday by officers responding to a 911 call about a male who appeared to be pulling a gun in and out of his pants. The 911 caller said the gun was “probably fake,” then added, “I don’t know if it’s real or not.” The president of the Cleveland Police Patrolmen’s Association has said the officers weren’t told the caller thought the gun might be fake. Police say Tamir Rice, who died Sunday, had an “airsoft” gun that appeared indistinguishable from a real firearm.
GOP shifts on immigration policy BOCA RATON, Fla. — The conventional wisdom in the Republican Party is changing. Less than two years ago, party leaders solemnly declared after an exhaustive study that the GOP “must embrace and champion comprehensive immigration reform.” It was critical for the party’s survival, they said, to address an issue that was paramount to the nation’s surging Hispanic population. But as President Obama issued a sweeping immigration order last week, some of the Republican Party’s most prominent governors described immigration reform as little more than an afterthought. “This issue is probably not in the Top 10 of most voters in America,” Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who is considering a 2016 White House bid. The evolution presents risks, however, for Republicans competing in a 2016 election that will draw a much larger and more diverse electorate — especially in a handful of swing states where the Hispanic population is quickly growing.
Officials see pope’s visit as a rebirth PHILADELPHIA — Roman Catholic officials in Philadelphia say hosting Pope Francis during his U.S. visit next year could foster a rebirth for an archdiocese that has struggled with financial problems and sex abuse scandals during the last decade.

Afghan villagers’ anger reaches beyond Taliban Death toll rises to 61 in wake of suicide bombing By Jospeh Goldstein The New York Times
YAHYA KHEL, Afghanistan — Three years ago, villagers from the dusty Afghan district of Yahya Khel, near the Pakistani border, rose up against the Taliban, driving the insurgents away. They say they did it on their own, winning themselves a degree of security that felt tolerable. Late Sunday afternoon, the insurgents exacted a horrific revenge. At a volleyball tournament here that drew teams and spectators from surround-
ing districts, a suicide bomber detonated his explosives just as fans were converging on the players to celebrate. By Monday, the death toll had climbed to 61, according to the district governor, Musa Jan. Many were children. Some families were burying not just one member, but two. Amid their grief, the men of Yahya Khel, a district in Paktika province, were naturally angry at the insurgents who had sent the suicide bomber. But they were also critical of a national government they felt had offered them little in the past three years. Some said they might just turn against the government, as they once did against the Taliban. Others went as
far as to threaten to cast their lot with the Taliban. These threats were not shouted into the wind, but delivered in speeches to the second most powerful government official in Afghanistan, Abdullah Abdullah, who arrived by helicopter on Monday to offer condolences. At a mosque on the edge of a town of mud-brick homes, roughly 200 men were waiting to receive him. He came to let the residents of Yahya Khel know that the country’s new leadership would respond to their needs. “Considering your bravery and patriotism, I promise that we will pay close attention to this area and will assist you in every possible way,” said
Abdullah, whose main base of political support is much farther north. Abdullah said that the people had shown “great honor and dignity maintaining the security of this district yourselves,” and he urged them to stay the course. But over the course of an hour, a number of men stood up to speak and asked Abdullah why they should. “Why should we be friend of this government?” asked one man. “What did we get in return? I have one word to say to the government: Either accept us, or we will bring the Taliban.” While other men delivered similar threats, just as many others pledged to renew the fight against the Taliban.
Yet the hostile rhetoric was a sign of just how tenuous support for the Afghan national government remains in remote provinces like Paktika, in the country’s far southeast. As more and more of the countryside has slipped under Taliban sway, places like Yahya Khel, which had mostly managed to hold their own against the Taliban despite occasional assassinations of district leaders, take on added significance. But even as Abdullah expressed gratitude, it was clear that the people were becoming less sure that the national government was a natural ally. Abdullah promised to bolster the number of the Afghan Local Police.

sanctions, something the U.S. administration strongly opposes because it fears it will push Tehran away from the table. Members of the new Republican-controlled Congress to be sworn in early next year have already threatened to impose additional sanctions on Iran and may well have enough votes to overturn an expected veto by President Barack Obama. Kerry urged patience, saying he hoped congressional skeptics would “come to see the wisdom” of giving talks an extra “few months to be able to proceed without sending messages that might be misinterpreted.” In Tehran, hard-liners fearful that their country will give away more than it gets under any final deal may increase pressure on Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to break off talks. Still, the latest extension appears to have his approval.
Swiss museum accepts Nazi-era art But he said the institution, the Kunstmuseum Bern, would have a privately financed team of experts vet each work before the museum takes possession of it. German authorities seized the trove after Gurlitt died at his Munich home. An agreement reached among the museum, the German federal government and the state of Bavaria calls for the collection to be dealt with as openly as possible. On Monday, the museum made public a group of ledgers kept by the elder Gurlitt from 1937 to 1941, posting them on a German government website, to make it easier for potential claimants to come forward. Under the terms of the agreement, any works in the collection that are determined to have been looted are to be returned to the heirs of their rightful owners, at the expense of the German government.
By Melissa Eddy The New York Times
BERLIN — A Swiss museum will accept the bequest of an immense trove of art amassed by a Nazi-era art dealer but will ensure that any looted art in the trove is returned to its rightful owner, museum officials said Monday. The bequest was made by the dealer’s reclusive son, Cornelius Gurlitt, just before he died in May. A cousin of Gurlitt made a last-minute attempt to block the bequest. But Christoph Schäublin, president of the museum’s board of trustees, said he did not expect that action to prevent the museum from accepting it. Schäublin said the museum’s decision, reached Saturday after six months of deliberation, was “anything but easy” because of the origins of the collection.
If no owner can be identified, looted works will remain in Germany on public display so that potential claimants can come forward. The rest of the trove will go to the museum in Bern. Of the 1,280 works in Gurlitt’s collection that were originally seized by prosecutors as part of a tax-evasion investigation, some 240 are believed to have been looted from Jewish owners or bought from them under duress, according to Monika Grütters, the German culture minister, who said research is continuing. Another 238 works that Gurlitt had stashed in his vacation home in Salzburg, Austria, have yet to be scrutinized.

FERGUSON, MO., POLICE SHOOTING DECISION
Frustration boils over on the streets of Ferguson By John Eligon and Manny Fernandez The New York Times
FERGUSON, Mo. — They stood in the cold in front of the Ferguson Police Department, listening on radios as the St. Louis County prosecuting attorney, Robert P. McCulloch, read his statement on Monday, reality dawning that they were not going to hear what they wanted to hear. During McCulloch’s announcement, Michael Brown’s mother, Lesley McSpadden, and stepfather, Louis Head, stepped up onto a platform where protest leaders were standing. “Defend himself from what!” McSpadden yelled, when McCulloch spoke of Officer Darren Wilson defending himself. She bowed her head and tears started streaming down her cheeks. “Everybody wants me to be calm,” she said, her eyes covered with sunglasses. “You know them bullets did to my son!” “They still don’t care,” she yelled. “They never going to care.” McSpadden then sank her head into her husband’s chest and wept vigorously. Head then turned and began to yell. “Burn this down,” he repeatedly shouted, inserting an expletive. The crowd then began to roar. Some rushed toward the
fence near where the police were lined up. Representatives for the family helped them down off the platform and ushered them away, through the crowd. Officers in riot helmets and shields came out. Soon came the smoke bombs, the random sounds of bullets, the chaos that was almost as predictable as the verdict everyone expected. And no one in the crowd seemed quite certain how it would play out. It was part of a daylong scene of chaos and seething anger, frustration and grief, a mix of emotions that ebbed and flowed all day before the announcement and after it. Head, before and after was talking about system change, not violence, but like most in the crowd he battled his emotions, not always winning. As day turned to night on Monday and the prosecutor’s announcement got closer, the frustration and fury swelled on the streets here in the heart of Ferguson, setting the stage for an outburst that had been months in the making. Many demonstrators, long resigned to the notion that they would not get the outcome they wanted, seemed to respond spontaneously, from raw emotion. How they would express their outrage, and how far law enforcement would allow them to go, came with no easy answers. What was certain was that people felt they were part of something larger. “I only saw this stuff in

school,” said Courtney Ford, 30, an educator who is black and who lives in St. Louis. He left work to observe the protesters holding court across the street from the Ferguson Police Department. “The Selma marches, and Martin Luther King, and the civil rights activists,” he continued. “But now, this is life. This is history. I’m just out here really as a witness.” By about 5 p.m., hours before the announcement of the grand jury’s decision, crowds already started gathering across from the station, their energy rising as the night went on. A small crowd of roughly 50 protesters chanted, sang and shouted, all the while watched by dozens of reporters, photographers and spectators. The
protesters were a postmodern, post-Ferguson amalgam of political views, ages, ethnicities. A few men in black-and-white clergy collars stood next to a circle of young black men and women who rapped anti-police slogans. “No justice,” a man with a bullhorn yelled. “No peace,” the crowd replied. “No racist —,” he continued. “Police,” they answered. A middle-aged white woman wove through the crowd, yelling, “We need to shut this down across America!” and handing out fliers. The woman, Jessie Davis, was a supporter of the Revolutionary Communist Party and came here from Chicago. Someone held a protest sign
they made out of a Cheerios box. The pungent scent of marijuana filled the air at one point. A few parents brought their children. One protester hurried through the crowd, saying into a walkie-talkie, “What’s your location?” A young AfricanAmerican man in one of the ghoulish Guy Fawkes masks that have become a staple of the protests was approached, and asked what he hoped to accomplish. He said nothing, shrugged and walked away. Shortly after 5:30 p.m., a few protesters walked across the street and began shaking the metal barricades that blocked off the entrance to the police station’s parking lot. One of them wore a Guy Fawkes mask. Another wore a bandanna across his face. They pushed and pulled the barricades until several sections came unlocked. One of the protesters stretched his arms in the victory pose: The barricade was down, and the protesters across the street cheered. “Whose streets?” they yelled, after the barricades were split open. “Our streets!” But amid a brief cheer, there was also a silence that came over the group. There was uncertainty over what would happen next. No one in the crowd rushed toward the police station or its parking lot. A minute or so later, about 15 uniformed officers came out of the nextdoor firehouse, replaced the barricade and formed a skir-
mish line that amped up the crowd. One of the men who had opened the barricades ran across the street, screamed profanities at the officers, kicked the barricade and then returned to the tire-shop parking lot. “I feel disrespected,” said Kayla Jones, 17, of Ferguson, as she stood among the chanting crowd. Jones was not yelling like everyone around her, but she said was “very angry inside.” By 7 p.m. the crowd had moved beyond the parking lot to the street. All four lanes of Florissant had been commandeered by the protesters. The police were not trying to fight it. The protesters parked their cars to block traffic. The protesters were milling around in front of the police station. The police were hanging back and not trying to clear the street. The atmosphere became a little more excited. Across town, on the narrow residential street where Brown was shot, the scene was much quieter, but the anger was no less palpable. A couple of men wearing T-shirts that read “I Am Mike Brown” marched around the memorial of flowers, teddy bears and candles in the middle of the street and yelled profanities and advocated for a militant response. A helicopter buzzed overhead. “I’m not preaching peace no more!” he shouted. “I’m preaching purge.”

As the night went on, the situation grew more intense and chaotic. Bottles and rocks were thrown at police. At least one police car was burned; buildings, including a Walgreens, were on fire, and looting was reported in several businesses. Gunshots were heard, and law enforcement authorities deployed gas or smoke to control the crowds. Protesters blocked I-44 in St. Louis in the neighborhood where another man was shot by police this fall. Brown’s family issued a statement expressing sadness but calling for peaceful protest and a campaign to require body cameras on police officers nationwide. “We are profoundly disappointed that the killer of our child will not face the consequence of his actions,” the statement said. “While we understand that many others share our pain, we ask that you channel your frustration in ways that will make a positive People walk away from a storage facility on fire after the announcement of the change.

Land: Utah passed transfer bill in 2012 Continued from Page A-1 in New Mexico and across Western states, 99 percent of us were not born into wealth and riches,” said Max Trujillo of the New Mexico Wildlife Federation in an interview before the election. “Our public lands are our inheritance. That’s our wealth. That’s what we can pass on to our children and grandchildren. We oppose anything that jeopardizes that.” Dozens of business owners with the New Mexico Green Chamber of Commerce also are urging state lawmakers not to support federal lands transfer bills. Chamber members are concerned that turning federal lands over to the state would reduce protections for those lands and is a move by private interests to ultimately gain control over more property and natural resources. “Moving these [federal] lands into state control makes many of our members very nervous, because states are more susceptible to the whims of policymakers who might choose to develop, sell or otherwise take these lands off the table forever,” says a letter the chamber sent to lawmakers Nov. 18. Almost a third of New Mexico is federal public land, managed by the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Forest Service or the National Park Service. Legislatures in six other Western states have contemplated similar bills to transfer federal public lands to state control, except for national parks, national monuments, tribal lands and wilderness. Utah passed a public land transfer bill in 2012, the only state to approve one so far.
More than 700 million acres of public land are federally managed, most in Western states. The chamber also is concerned that managing huge swaths of federal lands would cost the state more than New Mexico taxpayers could afford. Currently, the cost of managing federal lands is born by taxpayers across the United States. Susan Guyette, owner of Santa Fe Planning and Research, signed onto the chamber petition sent to lawmakers. “I think if the land was in state control it would come under local influence of people who want to use the federal lands for oil and gas and grazing that would not be good for the land. It would be far more under the influence of commercial pressures,” she said. Guyette, who has worked on projects in national parks and with Native American tribes, said she’s also concerned tribes would lose access to sacred sites. Aubrey Dunn, who has a slender lead in a still disputed race for New Mexico State Land Commissioner currently held by incumbent Ray Powell, supports federal land transfers to the state but denies it would lead to privatizing the land. “Even if Aubrey kept his word on that, the next land commissioner is under no obligation to follow and certainly could sell off the trust land,” said John Crenshaw of the New Mexico Wildlife Federation. “Nevada has sold off almost all of its state trust land. New Mexico has sold off four million acres already.” Contact Staci Matlock at 505-986-3055 or smatlock@ sfnewmexican.com.

Hagel: Senate likely to battle over successor Continued from Page A-1 ber of Obama’s national security team to step down in the wake of both a disastrous midterm election for the president’s party and persistent criticism about the administration’s policies in the Middle East and elsewhere. It’s unclear whether Hagel’s forced resignation signals the start of a broader shake-up of the president’s team; White House officials said it was possible there could be more departures. Among the leading contenders to replace Hagel is Michele Flournoy, who served as the Pentagon’s policy chief for the first three years of Obama’s presidency. Flournoy, who would be the first woman to head the Pentagon, is now chief executive officer of the Center for a New American Security, a think tank that she co-founded. Flournoy is said to be interested in the top Pentagon job but seeking assurances from the White House that she would be given greater latitude in policymaking than Hagel. Flournoy is also considered a possible defense secretary for Hillary Rodham Clinton if Clinton should win the presidency in 2016. Others mentioned as possible replacements include Ashton Carter, the former deputy defense secretary and Robert Work, who currently holds that post. Flournoy and Carter are seasoned national security professionals whose professional stature, credibility among members of both parties and insiders’ knowledge of the Defense Department are expected to help in managing the threat from the Islamic State and handle impending budget cuts, among other challenges. Flournoy, who would be the first woman to head the Defense Department, and Carter have both “grown up in the Pentagon and have great institutional support from inside,” said Roger Zakheim, the former general counsel and deputy staff director of the House Armed Services Committee. Flournoy and Carter’s experiences are in sharp contrast to the credentials that Hagel brought to the job last year. Hagel, a Republican and former senator from Nebraska, was a Pentagon outsider steeped in politics but whose friendship with Obama and opposition to the Iraq War helped him land the top Defense Department post. With Hagel’s departure, Obama will be the first president since Harry Truman to have four defense secretaries. Hagel’s two predecessors, Robert Gates and Leon

Panetta, complained after leaving the administration about White House micromanagement and political interference in policy decisions. Rep. Buck McKeon, chair of the House Armed Services Committee, suggested Obama consider his own role in his administration’s foreign policy struggles rather than seeking another changeover at the Pentagon. “When the president goes through three secretaries, he should ask, ‘Is it them or is it me?’ ” said McKeon, R-Calif. Hagel has had his own frustrations with the White House. In recent weeks, he sent a letter to National Security Adviser Susan Rice in which he said Obama needed to articulate a clearer view of the administration’s approach to dealing with Syrian President Bashar Assad. The letter is said to have angered White House officials. In some ways, Hagel was seen as an attempt by the White House to install a Pentagon chief who would be less likely than Gates and Panetta to pitch policy fights with the West Wing. Some foreign policy experts noted the irony in the White House ousting a defense secretary who largely played the role the president appeared to have been seeking. “The White House picked him because they wanted somebody they could control and would be a policy nonentity and they got a policy nonentity,” said Rosa Brooks, who served at the Pentagon during Obama’s first term. “It seems unfair to make him a fall guy for White House policy failures.”
The timing of Hagel’s departure sets up a potential confirmation fight in the Senate. Republicans, who will take control of the body next month, have been deeply critical of the president’s foreign policy. Hagel submitted his resignation letter to Obama on Monday morning after what his advisers said were a series of private discussions about his future that he initiated with Obama last month. The 68-year-old has agreed to remain in office until a successor is confirmed by the Senate. Hagel’s aides assert that he is leaving at an appropriate juncture. The aides were vague about what persuaded him to quit, suggesting that he ultimately agreed with Obama that the Pentagon needed a new leadership focus for the coming two years. Hagel has steered the Pentagon through a major review of nuclear weapons management, as well as reforms to the military justice system and to the military health system. But his departure also coincides with a period of great uncertainty over the course of the administration’s campaign to defeat the Islamic State group, as well as worry over Russia’s actions in Ukraine, and further defense budget cuts. Indeed, the current landscape looks far different from when Hagel was brought in to oversee the drawdown of the Afghanistan war and navigate the Pentagon through the cutbacks. White House officials suggested the shift in emphasis was behind the need for a change in leadership. Hagel served as senator from Nebraska and became a critic of U.S. involvement in Iraq. He forged a strong personal relationship with Obama in the Senate and they made several overseas trips together, including the high-profile visit Obama made in the final months before the 2008 presidential campaign. Hagel also carved out a reputation as an independent thinker and blunt speaker, and Obama said he came to admire his courage and willingness to speak his mind. Hagel was the first enlisted combat military veteran to become secretary of defense. He served in the Vietnam War and received two Purple Hearts. As he announced his resignation Monday, Hagel said it was “the greatest privilege of my life to lead and, most important, to serve with the men and women of the Defense Department and support their families.” The New York Times contributed to this report.
Hackers: Creating code may take years Continued from Page A-1 tests. In those tests, hackers prevail. One was the Defense Department-funded assault on a 2012 model Americanmade car, overseen by computer scientist Kathleen Fisher. Hackers demonstrated they could create the electronic equivalent of a skeleton key to unlock the car’s networks. That may take months, Fisher said, but from there it would be “pretty easy to package up the smarts and make it available online, perhaps in a black-market type situation.” The project’s goal is more than just to plug vulnerabilities — it is to reconceive the most critical lines of computer code that control the car in a way that could make them invulnerable to some of the major known threats. The model code would be distributed to automakers, who could adapt it to their needs. That should take a few more years. The industry is participating — and not waiting. One major association representing brands including Honda and Toyota is helping establish an “information sharing and analysis center” patterned after efforts by big banks to try to
thwart cyberattacks. “Before, when you designed something, you looked at how might components fail,” said Michael Cammisa, director of safety for the Association of Global Automakers. “Now, you have to look at how would somebody maliciously attack the vehicle.” The so-called Auto-ISAC will allow participating companies to evaluate the credibility of threats and, in the event of an attack, let one warn others so they could test their own systems. The effort was announced this summer at the Cyberauto Challenge in Detroit, one of an increasing number of programs focused on auto hacking. Several days later, in China, organizers of a cybersecurity conference announced success in their challenge to hack a Model S made by Tesla Motors. Another American company, General Motors, has checked how Boeing and defense companies create systems to repel hackers, according to Mark Reuss, GM’s executive vice president of global product development. Cybersecurity is “one of the highest priority things that we have,” Reuss said. “We have got to make sure that our customers are safe.”
Chris Valasek, pictured at the Los Angeles Auto Show on Wednesday, helped catapult car hacking into the public eye when he and a partner revealed last year they had been able to control a 2010 Toyota Prius and 2010 Ford Escape by plugging into a port used by mechanics.

Critics of a proposal to divert a portion of the Gila River under a water settlement with Arizona pack the New Mexico Interstate Stream Commission meeting in Albuquerque on Monday. The panel voted to build a diversion and storage system along the Gila River. PHOTOS BY SUSAN MONTOYA BRYAN/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Gila: Decision comes after 200 meetings Continued from PageA-1 it from going to the next steps,” he said. The commission’s vote on the diversion recommendation was not unanimous. Commissioner Blane Sanchez objected and Topper Thorpe chose not to vote, a decision that spurred cheers from people in the audience who have been critical of diversion. One woman yelled out “Boondoggle.” Other members of the audience held signs that read “Save the Gila.” The commission’s action comes after more than 200 meetings, volumes of public comment, million-dollar engineering studies and a flood of complaints by environmental groups and the commission’s former director that the planning process was shrouded in secrecy and that the outcome was predetermined. The commission dismissed those claims, and a state district judge decided last week to clear the way for the panel to continue deliberating the contentious issue. The commission faced a Dec. 31 deadline under the Arizona Water Settlements
Interstate Stream Commission Chairman Jim Dunlap, left, asks questions about a proposals that call for developing a portion of the Gila River during Monday’s meeting.
Act to decide what to do with its share of the river. Under the 2004 settlement, New Mexico is entitled to 14,000 acre-feet of water a year, or about 4.5 billion gallons. Up to $128 million in federal funding would be available if the state builds a diversion system, or about half that if the state pursues other water projects in the region. While it’s still unclear how much the water would cost consumers in southwest-
ern New Mexico, critics are concerned the price tag of diverting the water would far outweigh what federal subsidies are available and result in skyrocketing water bills. “A billion-dollar Gila River diversion project is a bad idea for New Mexico taxpayers and water users. It’s infeasible, it’s too expensive, the project will provide little to no water, and will harm the wildlife of the Gila River,” said Allyson Siwik, head of the Gila Conservation
Coalition. Amy Haas, the commission’s chief counsel, acknowledged that developing the water would be expensive. Estimates have put the cost of diversion and storage between $575 million and $1 billion. “We’re not going to spin this,” Haas said. “The water that is at issue here, this opportunity for New Mexico to develop the additional up-to 14,000 acre-feet of Gila River water is a one-time opportunity. We’re not going to see a new supply of water like this again.” Critics say there’s not enough water in the river to make diversion viable and that restoring watersheds and boosting conservation would offer a bigger return on the investment. But municipal leaders in Luna and Grant counties have said water supplies are so thin in southwestern New Mexico that they have to turn businesses away. The commission’s vote is just the first step. Commission staff and consultants have already said permitting, endangered species issues and financing will present challenges.

AG’s office asks high court to remove judge Raphaelson says she shouldn’t have been on retention ballot By Phaedra Haywood The New Mexican
The New Mexico Attorney General’s Office is asking the state Supreme Court to remove District Judge Sheri Raphaelson from the bench by Jan. 1, 2015. Raphaelson, who was appointed in
2009 to fill a vacancy on the First Judicial District bench and won election in 2010, has said she won’t voluntarily leave office until the end of 2016, despite voters booting her in a Sheri retention election Raphaelson early this month. The judge, who has primarily presided over a Rio Arriba County docket, says that under her interpretation of the law, her name
shouldn’t have been on the Nov. 4 ballot. Although Raphaelson now insists she doesn’t have to stand for retention until six years after her election, she filed a declaration of candidacy to have her name put on the ballot this year. Assistant Attorney General Scott Fuqua wrote in writ of quo warranto filed Friday with the Supreme Court that Raphaelson “miscalculated the length of her term. Because she inherited a six-year term two years after it had begun, she was properly subject
to retention in the 2014 general election. But even if her retention election was held two years early, [Raphaelson] voluntarily subjected herself to that election and is bound by its results.” Raphaelson said Monday she plans to file a response but had no further comment. Raphaelson, 49, is one of only two judges — out of 86 reviewed statewide — who received a “do not retain” recommendation from the New Mexico Judicial Performance Evaluation Commission this year.

Officials: Hiker died of hypothermia
Audrey Kaplan, who was found dead in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains above Santa Fe after she went hiking in late July, died of hypothermia, the state Office of the Medical Investigator determined. The 75-year-old Dallas woman, who along with her husband had a second home in Santa Fe, was discovered in a densely wooded area with her arms and hands in a stream of water, according to an autopsy report released by the Audrey Kaplan agency. She had removed some or all of her clothes in what the report calls paradoxical undressing, in which people who are freezing to death take off their clothes as if they are burning up with fever. Searchand-rescue team members found her clothing and other belongings nearby. “Although there are no specific autopsy findings to indicate hypothermia (drop in body temperature to below normal), the circumstances of Ms. Kaplan’s death and lack of fatal disease at autopsy support cold exposure due to very low temperature at night,” said the report, dated Sept. 12 on an autopsy conducted by Michelle Aurelius, assistant chief medical investigator and University of New Mexico Hospital autopsy director. “The findings support that Ms. Kaplan got lost while hiking, became dehydrated and died of hypothermia … with accelerated loss of body heat from being wet either from thunderstorm rain or immersion in the stream. There were no injuries that caused or contributed to death.” Authorities have said that Kaplan had gone hiking with her husband, Norman Kaplan, on the morning of Wednesday, July 30 on the Winsor Trail, which has a trailhead at a parking lot near the Santa Fe ski basin. She separated from her husband and left the trail to search for mushrooms around 10:30 a.m. When she didn’t show up by 12:15 p.m. her husband and others went looking for her. Torrential rains, fog and cold nighttime temperatures in the low 40s enveloped the area that following Friday, making search-and-rescue efforts difficult. Her body was found in the afternoon on Monday, Aug. 4, about 1.2 miles northwest of Wilderness Gate.

Lack of snow delays opening at Ski Santa Fe Recent storms were not enough for resort to open on Thanksgiving Day By Staci Matlock The New Mexican
T
wo questions weigh heavy on many minds before Thanksgiving: Will the turkey be ready in time for dinner and will the ski areas open? Ski Santa Fe won’t. On Monday, Ski Santa Fe announced to postpone the season opener until Dec. 6. The local ski basin received 2 inches of snow over the weekend and has been making snow daily since Nov. 10. More snow fell Monday night. But the ski resort only reported about a 10-inch base as of Monday and needs at least 2 feet for a good opening day, said communications director Deborah Owen. “We’re ready to go,” Owen said. “If we get the right storm we can open in 48 hours.” The ski basin features 77 trails and seven lifts. Thanksgiving openings have proven elusive for Ski Santa Fe. It opened on Thanksgiving Day in 2013, for the first time in 11 years, thanks to a snowstorm the week prior. Taos Ski Valley plans to open at least some of its 110 trails and 15 lifts on Thanksgiving Day. The ski resort on Monday was reporting a 36-inch base and had received about a foot of new snow over the last five days. Now celebrating its 60th year, Taos Ski Valley will be open Thursdays through Sundays only until Dec. 12 and then will be open daily.
In brief Wolf Creek Ski Area owner admits he lacked permit Davey Pitcher, owner of Wolf Creek Ski Area in Southern Colorado, pleaded guilty in federal court in Durango, Colo., Monday to one count of conducting work in the Rio Grande National Forest without a permit. Pitcher, 52, was cited earlier this year for five misdemeanor offenses involving conducting work activity using a helicopter without written authorization and for using explosives without a permit. His most recent permit expired in 2011. The citations related to back country activities on Feb. 11, Mar. 3 and March 4. Colin Sutton, 28, a longtime member of the Wolf Creek ski patrol, was killed in an avalanche off of Diablo Ridge about a

mile west of Conejos Peak in the San Juan Mountains while testing snow conditions during the March 4 mission. Pitcher faces a fine of up to $5,000 and six months in prison, or both. Sentencing is scheduled for Dec. 16. Pitcher still faces thousands of dollars in fines from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration in connection with Sutton’s death. Albert Durand, Sutton’s stepfather, was among family members present in court. The decision to drop other charges was “incomprehensible,” he said. “We were appalled, shocked.”

Meanwhile, the small Sipapu Ski Resort in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains is enjoying an early opening and stellar start to the ski season, according to marketing director Stacey Glaser. Resort staff measured 13 inches of new snow over the weekend, bringing the total in the last nine days to 31 inches. “It’s been one of our best Novembers we’ve ever had,” Glaser said Monday. “We’ve opened more terrain than we ever have for this time of year.” In the last 14 years, the only ski season that came close to starting with conditions as favorable as this one occurred in 2004-05, Glaser said. That November, Sipapu received 30 inches of snow by Thanksgiving. During the season the ski resort received 239 inches of snow. “We like how this is trending already,” Glaser said. Sipapu has 18 trails open out of 41 and is striving to open all five of its lifts by the end of the week. Angel Fire received 5 inches of fresh snow over the weekend, bringing the base to 20 inches and the total snow at the ski resort to 39 inches. The resort plans

The award since 1996 has been given to 123 New Mexico teachers to recognize their work in improving the academic achievement of students. The honor comes with a cash stipend of $4,000 to be used toward professional development. Each year the award rotates among grade levels, with the 2015 awards going to middle school instructors. The award-winning teachers were nominated last spring by their principal or other teachers, parents, students or community members. This year 126 teachers were nominated. This year’s other recipients are Albino Garcia III at the Native American Community Academy in Albuquerque; Cheryl Kerby of Mountain View Middle School in Rio Rancho; Randy Martin of Desert Ridge Middle School in Albuquerque; Doris Merzweiler at Hayes Middle School and Wilson Middle School in Albuquerque; Janene Mondragon of Questa Junior High in Questa and Jana Rupp of Bosque School in Albuquerque.

Santa Fe County proposes sewer rate hikes over the next five years that would boost the average monthly bill to $19 from $12 in the first year, a nearly 60 percent increase. The county proposal was spurred in part by the city’s decision to increase its sewer rates. The City Council last week approved a plan that will raise rates for all of its customers by 5.6 percent in January and then by 4.9 percent every year for the next four years. “The increase is needed to pay for increasing costs and capital improvements to serve all customers,” city documents state. “The increase will allow for the utility to maintain a sufficient fund balance to meet the minimum debt service coverage required to meet bond obligations.” The county’s proposed rate hike would affect about 800 customers in unincorporated areas of the county, primarily adjoining the city. County commissioners are scheduled to hold a public hearing on the rate change “no earlier than” 5 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 25, in commission chambers at the County Administrative Building, 102 Grant Ave. In addition to the initial 60 percent increase, the county proposal calls for 5 percent rate hikes annually for four years starting in 2016. Claudia Borchert, county Utilities Division director, said two factors are driving the county’s proposal. The first is the city’s plan to bump up its rates. The majority of wastewater produced by county customers ends up at the city’s sewage treatment plant southwest of Santa Fe, “so we become the city’s wholesale customer for those retail customers,” she said. The second reason is that a rate increase is “long overdue,” as shown by 2010 a cost-of-service study, Borchert said. “This sewer rate change has been contemplated for a long time,” she said. “The last sewer rate change to the county customers was done in 1998.” While an initial 60 percent increase sounds “dramatic,” Borchert said, paying $19 a month for sewer service, as proposed in the first year, is “reasonable.” “The rates people are paying today haven’t been updated in 16 years and don’t reflect the cost associated with collecting and treating that waste in today’s costs,” she said. “I like to emphasize what people are getting for their $19,” she added. “They are getting a seamless disposal of all the waste they produce at their house. Bye-bye grease in the drain. Bye-bye toilet flushes. Bye-bye dirty shower water. Bye-bye laundry water. Not only that, but at the treatment end, the treatment plant then produces clean water that can be put back in our rivers, that we can re-use to irrigate fields that people like to play on. I think $19 a month is a very reasonable fee for all the services provided.” Contact Daniel J. Chacón at 986-3089 or dchacon@sfnewmexican.com.

And if that’s what we want to be, then we need to get back to being that.” With that in mind, Bellis is recommending the town council cancel its contract with Griffin and Associates, hire a marketing director to do a lot of the ad buying and stat collecting in-house, and refocus on making Taos “cool” again. A big part of that, he argues, is creating more events that make Taos a more exciting place to live and attract more visitors, even if it’s just for a day. “The people that are coming here, their stays are shorter. They’re going to come here and ski for the day. They’re going to come here and listen to the music for the day.

a subcommittee of the Lodgers Tax board. Several volunteer merchants and lodgers say consolidating the various boards and private groups all talking tourism could be useful, but the constant rearranging makes it hard to build consistency and momentum. “I think there’s a danger if the politicians are in charge of the marketing and not a professional,” Moreau says. She and other members of a marketing subcommittee are recommending the town council extend the Griffin and Associates contract though the end of June so as not to lose a market presence. But it’s the council that has the final say. If the council does shift lodgers tax funds away from attracting overnight stays, it could irk the very hoteliers who build that budget. “If we’re not making a point of bringing people to stay in town, lodgers tax will continue to fall,” Moreau said. “We have to be really smart that we don’t forget where those funds are generated. And if that’s largely coming from lodgers, then you need to listen to us,” she says. This story was first published in The Taos News, a sister paper of The Santa Fe New Mexican.

Feds favor expansion of endangered wolf territory Officials consider proposal that would triple roaming area By Felicia Fonseca The Associated Press
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. — Federal officials have proposed more than tripling the current number of endangered Mexican gray wolves in the Southwest and greatly expanding the area they can roam. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said Monday it would finalize a decision in January for changes to a reintroduction program that has stumbled through legal battles, illegal shootings, politics and other problems. The agency said its favored proposal
aims to increase the genetic diversity of the wolves, and lessen impacts to ranchers and potential prey on tribal lands. The wolves currently roam about 7 million acres of federal, tribal and private land in far eastern Arizona and Western New Mexico. The proposal increases the number of sites where wolves could be released and eventually will allow the animals to disperse throughout Arizona and New Mexico south of Interstate 40 to the U.S.-Mexico border. Ranchers and community leaders in rural areas have opposed expansion efforts, saying that wolves that don’t find deer and elk to feed on could turn to livestock and domestic animals instead, said Caren Cowan, executive director of the

New Mexico Cattle Growers Association. “It’s cruel to the animals because there is no prey base,” she said. “They are doomed to failure.” Under the Fish and Wildlife proposal, livestock owners could kill any wolf that is biting, wounding or killing livestock on federal land. Pet owners could do the same on on-federal land. Deer and elk on tribal lands also would be protected. Sherry Barrett, Mexican wolf recovery coordinator for the Fish and Wildlife Service, said the proposal creates a balance between growing the wolf population and the impacts that wolves might have on local communities. The last count of wolves showed there are a minimum
83 in the wild. Wildlife officials said they would work toward managing a population of 300 to 325 wolves under the proposal that increases the habitat suitable for wolves by nearly four times what’s available now. If the population exceeds that number, wolves could be relocated to Mexico, be placed in captivity or killed as a last resort, Barrett said. “We have several options available,” she said. The target population likely will go up once the Fish and Wildlife Service develops a recovery plan, Barrett said. A coalition of environmental groups recently sued the agency for not crafting and implementing a valid recovery plan with measurable goals for recovery of the wolves in the Southwest. The proposal to expand the

territory for wolves was welcomed by environmentalists who said that wildlife managers need to do more to help the wolves repopulate. But it falls short of including the territory they wanted around the Grand Canyon and in the Southern Rocky
Mountains, and short on the target population, said Michael Robinson of the Center for Biological Diversity. “Putting them at 325 is still going to put them in grave danger,” he said. “There’s no science behind that.”

She was born in Holland Feb. 4, 1927. Her Father, a Captain in the Merchant Marine, was gone much of the time, including World War II. In 1939 the Nazis invaded and occupied Holland. Starvation was rampant during the 5-year occupation, but Anke, her two sisters and Mother survived even though the Nazis wouldn’t allow her Father to send them any money. At age 17, in order to ease her family’s dire situation, Anke went to work in a shop where she also had a room and board. She soon discovered the shop owner was harboring a member of the Dutch underground. Although she was terrified, she knew she could not go home. Subsequently, she persuaded two Nazis soldiers who wanted to search the shop that there was nothing for them to find. Fortunately, neither they nor her family ever knew she had occasionally been a courier for the underground. After the war her Father, then in charge of Holland American Line pier in Hoboken, NJ, invited her to the United States. They lived in Greenwich Village and she obtained a B.S. in Chemistry from Hunter College. Anke soon became friends with an English newspaper correspondent who reported on numerous social functions. The two attneded events such as the opening of the United Nations where she met the Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov and Secretary of State James Byrnes among others. Backstage at the opening of "My fair Lady" she nearly fainted when the star Rex Harrison kissed her hand. Six years later she headed for San Franciso, CA on the Santa Fe Railway and stopped in Lamy, NM to visit a friend. She fell in love with Santa Fe at that time, but two months later continued on to San Francisco, CA. There she married Charles Kempter, Ph.D. who later found work at Lo Alamos National Laboratory. After they divorced a number of years later, Anke moved to Santa Fe where she became involved with the Opera for over 20 years. She established a Saturday afternoon radio program giving commentaries after each performance. In 1978 she married Irving Bunkin, M.D. who provided her with 26 wonderful years before his death in 2004 after a lingering illness. Anke is survivded by three sons, Collin Kempter, Eric Kempter, Reid Kempter and a grandaughter, Shannon Kempter, M.D. Long Time Friend Robert B. Hilley, M.D.

Benton E. "Steve" Stephenson Jr., 80, of Santa Fe passed on Thursday, November 20th, 2014. Steve began his journey on September 18, 1934, born to Caroline and Benton Stephenson Sr. in Natrona County, Wyoming. During Steve’s childhood the Stephenson family took in Kay Sanderson who Steve thereafter referred to as his sister. Steve attended Oregon State University on a Navy ROTC scholarship, earning a degree in engineering. Steve fulfilled his commitment to our nation by honorably serving in the U.S. Marines. As a Marine, Steve discovered his passion for flying and proudly earned his pilot’s wings. One auspicious evening, on a double date, Lt. Stephenson met his beloved Lynn. Initially mismatched, both couples realized their mistake, and Steve married Lynn Marie Eadie on October 25th, 1958, beginning a half century of wedded bliss. Upon Steve’s departure from the Marines he worked for Pitney Bowes. After a few years Steve came home one day and announced that no matter how hard he tried he couldn’t fly a desk. Shortly thereafter Steve began his piloting career with Eastern Airlines and greatly enjoyed flying for each of the next 21 years. During this period he and Lynn both received their ordinations as ministers in the UCC and opened a church in South Florida. After Steve’s retirement from Eastern Airlines he became a realtor for many years, Steve joined the Small Business Development Center in 2003 and worked there until his final retirement just last year. Steve lived in a number of states in his life including: Wyoming, Oregon, Alaska, Florida, North Carolina, Connecticut, and then New Mexico. Steve and Lynn loved to travel, and they took advantage of the opportunities he had at Eastern to travel widely. Steve and Lynn had many journeys far and wide both physically and spiritually. It was one of those journeys that led Steve and Lynn to find a community more open to alternative medical and spiritual offerings, drawing the Stephenson family to Santa Fe in 1980. Another life changing family journey around the world in 1988 started Steve on the path to becoming a practicing Buddhist. Over the years Steve and Lynn took a great many people into their home and into their hearts, including a number of their children’s friends. Steve was preceded in death by his parents, Caroline and Benton Stephenson Sr., and his beloved wife Lynn. Survivors include his sister Kay, his daughter Lisa Rogers, his son Stuart Stephenson, his daughter Christina Stephenson, and his son John Stephenson and daughter-in-law Peggy, 7 grandchildren, 13 great-grandchildren and far, far too many other loved ones to count. A celebration of Steve’s life and continuing journey will be held at 11:00 am on Tuesday, November 24th at the Masonic Lodge in downtown Santa Fe. For those unable to attend, the family may be reached via email at: mushymom@yahoo.com . The family asks that instead of flowers, donation be made to KSK Buddhist Center of Santa Fe.

Hotel St. Francis was valued at about $7.2 million in 2012, $6.7 million in 2013 and is now valued by the assessor at $10.7 million. Heritage Hotels & Resorts disputes the assessment and says it’s worth $4.1 million. LUIS SÁNCHEZ SATURNO/NEW MEXICAN FILE PHOTO
Hotel firm, county spar over property values By Phaedra Haywood The New Mexican
eritage Hotels & Resorts, which purchased the Eldorado Hotel & Spa in May, is in a dispute with the Santa Fe County assessor over the value of three other properties in Santa Fe. At issue is $123,000 in property taxes. The two entities don’t agree over the methods that should be used for determining the value of the properties — Hotel St. Francis, Hotel Chimayó de Santa Fe and The Lodge at Santa Fe — and both sides have filed court documents in the matter. The company leases the St. Francis and owns the other two properties, according to county appraiser Daniel King. According to documents filed in First Judicial District Court, Heritage estimates the combined value of the properties to be about $11 million, less than half the $23 million in value set by the Assessor’s Office. If the New Mexico-based hotel chain were to be taxed on the assessed value of the property, it would owe about $240,760 on the properties. If the company was taxed on the value it places on the property, it would owe about $117,850 for the year. It’s not uncommon for property owners to dispute the values placed on their properties by the assessor. Heritage has protested the value of these particular properties for several years running and has received some adjustments after being heard by the county’s Valuation Protest Board in the past. The Hotel Chimayó property was valued at about $4.9 million in 2011, $5.7 million in 2012, then $4.6 million in 2013. This year, the assessor has placed its value at $6.4 million, while the Heritage says it’s worth $2.7 million. Hotel St. Francis was valued at about $7.2 million in 2012, $6.7 million in 2013 and is now valued by the assessor at $10.7 million. Heritage says it’s worth $4.1 million. The Lodge at Santa Fe was valued at about $4.9 million in 2013 and has been assessed at

In brief New Mexico sees gradual job growth New Mexico continued its slow and steady jobs recovery in October as numbers released Friday showed the state added 9,100 jobs in the 12-month period, a boost of 1.1 percent. The jobs recovery in New Mexico has been gradual since June, and the most recent numbers are buoyed by a big boost in health care hiring, which increased by 4,900 jobs, as well as financial services, up 2,000 (5.9 percent) over the 12 months, and mining, up 1,700 (6.4 percent). The sectors that have been shedding jobs showed no turnaround, with manufacturing contracting by 2,300 jobs, a loss of 7.7 percent, and construction down another 200 jobs. Nationally, the 12-month boost puts New Mexico in the middle tier of states for growth, with Alaska at
$5.7 million this year. Heritage says its value is closer to $3.8 million. But this year the parties haven’t been able to come to terms — the protest board ruled against Heritage in September — and the company appealed the board’s decision in District Court in October. Court documents show negotiations in the case became contentious even before then. In a relatively rare move, Assessor Domingo Martinez filed a petition in District Court in July, asking the courts to order Heritage Hotels & Resorts to allow examination of records relating to the value of the properties. According to the petition, the assessor had sought the information “but respondent has failed to fully and timely produce the information requested.” Online court records show Heritage’s agents received a summons in the case, but never filed a response and a hearing was never held. Bridget Jacober, the Santa Fe County contract attorney who handled the case, said the county ultimately decided not to pursue the court action because “we had their assurance they would provide the documents we needed.” But at the protest hearing in September, the assessor told the protest board that certain documents requested in discovery still had not been supplied. King said that because state law does not require that commercial property owners disclose sales information, it can be difficult to value commercial properties, and the information requested from Smith Travel, an industry group, offers another set of information — besides income statistics rendered by taxpayers themselves — to assess the value of a hotel. State law requires counties to determine the market value of properties based on either the sales of comparable property (for which King says little data are available) income generated at the property, or what it would cost to replace the property in today’s market. Assessors can use all three methods if they like, and according to the protest board, that’s what

happened in this case. Heritage, on the other hand, relied primarily on the income method to determine how much its properties should be worth, according to the board’s written decision, and based its conclusions on income data that the Assessor’s Office said could not be substantiated. King said the company also compared its revenues to hotels in other markets — such as Raton — and Santa Fe hotels of lesser caliber than the high-end downtown properties it owns — such as express hotels on Cerrillos Road. But King said data from those types of properties are not representative of the value of Heritage’s properties, which are upscale hotels located in the heart of a desirable tourist destination. And the income data the hotel owner presented do not jibe with the numbers being reported by similar properties. Attorney Karl Sommer, who is handling the legal case for Heritage Hotels & Resorts, sees it differently. “Here’s the bottom line,” he said. “As a taxpayer, you are making what you are making. The best proof of that is to show what you are making by what you sign under penalty of perjury that that is what you are making. But they don’t accept the income figures that a taxpayer brings in. They use trade statistics. They say, ‘Well this is what you should be making. We’re going to value it on the basis of what you should be making, not what the economy shows you are making.’ ” Though Heritage has won similar arguments with the assessor in the past, this year the protest board sided with the county assessor. “The Board determined that the evidence provided by the Protestant was unreliable and not substantiated and found Assessor’s testimony to be more persuasive.” Heritage has appealed that ruling to District Court.

Mexico is $2.68, according to the AAA New Mexico Weekend Gas Watch. That price is 9 cents less than one week ago and 36 cents less than one year ago. Of the major metropolitan areas surveyed in New Mexico, drivers in Las Cruces are paying the most at $2.61 per gallon while drivers in Albuquerque are paying the least at $2.52 per gallon. The average is $2.55 in Santa Fe. New Mexicans are paying 17 cents less than the national average of $2.85. The price at the pump is closely tied to the wholesale price of crude oil, and falling global oil prices have been the primary contributing factor to the price at the pump declining over the last couple months. This has been the longest streak of declines since 2008. The downward pressure on prices is expected to continue through the Thanksgiving holiday, meaning drivers are likely to be giving thanks for the cheapest seasonal prices since 2009. With Thanksgiving days away, “we encourage folks who are planning a road trip to inspect their vehicles before heading out on the road,” said
aking a name in the art world used to mean the artist toiled in obscurity and poverty, dependent on galleries and patrons to exhibit and champion his or her work. This notion — that artistic creativity and business savvy occupy separate worlds — was reinforced by art schools that taught students how to make art but not how to market or sell it. An emerging 21st-century approach is that artmaking is a business, and the artist should be at the controls — the chief executive officer of his or her own production and distribution network. This model borrows many ideas from the business world. Get serious about sales. Artists should tear down the contrived wall between the creative and the commercial, because distribution of artwork is just as important as production. They should school themselves in marketing, inventory and financial management, cash flow and all licensing and intellectual property laws that pertain to creative works. Run like a business. Successful businesses keep track of revenues and expenses and pay their taxes on time. Most artists are sole proprietors and thus responsible for paying estimated income taxes, self-employment taxes and various state and local taxes. Artist-entrepreneurs who don’t want to do the paperwork should hire a bookkeeper or accountant to do it for them. Failure to pay taxes is a serious crime that can destroy a business. Pick a legal structure. Not every artist works alone in a studio. Many share workspace or collaborate on installations and other projects. Artists working together should use a company structure that limits their individual legal liability for accidents or business debts and lowers their tax burden. An accounting professional or business lawyer can help artists understand the pros and cons of various business structures, including limited liability company, joint venture and partnership arrangements. Be a self-promoter. Yesterday’s artists relied solely on galleries and agents to display their work, and they paid a commission for this exposure and representation. While these venues continue to be important for emerging artists, they aren’t the only marketing outlets available. Technology and social media empower artists to represent themselves and market their creations directly to the world. At a minimum, an artist needs a professional website: It’s the artist’s virtual gallery that potential customers can visit at any time to view artwork, learn more about the creator and buy art. Use available resources. Artists looking for capital and basic business skills have many service providers to choose from in New Mexico. The state’s 20 small business development centers offer free confidential counseling on starting and sustaining a business, accounting, financing, e-commerce and many other aspects of running a profitable enterprise. Community development lenders WESST, Accion and The Loan Fund can connect artist-entrepreneurs to financing if they’re not eligible for a loan from a traditional lender, and all three nonprofits provide other services — such as consultation, mentoring and skills training — to help aspiring entrepreneurs. To stay abreast of all business and community development workshops and events around the state, the New Mexico Business Calendar (bizcalendar.org) is a quick reference. An artist who acts like a businessperson has a greater chance of success than one who does not.

State exports $1 billion in goods to Mexico The New Mexico Economic Development Department has announced that New Mexico exported just over $1 billion in goods to Mexico, according to the third quarter report released by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s International Trade Administration. This is the first time exports to Mexico have surpassed $1 billion. The 2014 third quarter number also exceeds the record yearly number, which was $800,733,264 last year. According to official U.S. Department of Commerce estimates, it is calculated that for every $1 billion in exports, up to 6,250 jobs are cre-
ated or supported. Exports to Mexico accounted for roughly 32 percent of total New Mexico worldwide exports for the nine-month period, which amounted to $2.9 billion. This also represents a record number of exports for the time period, and New Mexico is expected hit another annual international exporting record for 2014. “We are thrilled that efforts in working with our Mexican counterparts to expand New Mexico’s footprint is paying off,” said Economic Development Secretary Jon Barela. “I look forward to the final numbers for 2014 in January, but this is a good sign for our economy as we increase trade with Mexico, our most natural trading partner.” The growth in exports are reflected in the increase of merchandise in agriculture, transportation equipment, petroleum and coal, fabricated metal products, machinery, and computer and electronic products going to Mexico.

e-Voices Our Web readers speak out: Uber launches Santa Fe service as PRC mulls fate of ride-share firm in state, Nov. 19 Have you looked at the vehicles that Capital “ [City] Cab has on the road lately? Hooray for competition. I have taken cabs in many urban jurisdictions and find Capital to be pretty steep. In addition to high fares, you get a beat up old Ford. Go Uber!” K.K.
“
Fantastic news for Santa Fe. I have used Uber for more than three years in Dallas, New York and San Francisco (and others) … it is fantastic, safe and so much better than a cab. All of the naysayers are either employed by Capital Cab or paid via political donation. Anyone that has actually used Uber will rave about it. This is a game-changer — trust me.” C.N. Comical that the opinions of representatives of “ Capital City Cab are actually published in this article. What else do you think their opinion would be? If I had a monopoly and an organization wanted to break the barriers of entry into the market, I would be furious as well. Bottom line is, the fact that Santa Fe has only one cab company is a major problem. … Quit crying, Capital City Cab. Step up your game and compete.” J.B. When I tried to comment on this story, I just got a “ spam upload about a free ride on Uber. … How much did the paper make for allowing this pop-up ad? As for the mayor, if you didn’t figure out that he will say anything to get more votes for his next run, then you have not been paying attention. All the same rhetoric about new technology and helping unemployment. … How many of these drivers have applied for a business license? Has Uber applied? How could the city approve such a license since the company has not met state regulations? Are these drivers paying gross receipts taxes? … Yes, more competition, but from a business that wants to operate legally and with its customer’s safety in mind. Just who is doing the background checks? Could you see that before you summon the driver? Another photo op for the mayor running for higher office.” A.M.M. How quickly Mayor [Javier] Gonzales has forgot“ ten the tragic accident caused by the Shuttlejack bus company (the last unregulated transportation company in Santa Fe) in which people lost their lives. This company is conducting business in the same manner with the mayor’s blessing. The mayor seems to be seeing dollar signs, instead of his constituents’ safety.” M.L. First of three mini mobile parks unveiled on St. Michael’s Drive, Nov. 17 I passed this mess last Saturday. Neither my wife “ nor I could make heads or tales of it. I now find out it is a ‘parklet’ and cost us $50,000. Wow, what could De Vargas Middle School have done with 50K for its art program? What could the Boys and Girls Clubs done with 50K? How about Habitat for Humanity? What a waste.” D.S. The park didn’t cost anyone anything; it was paid “ for by a grant by PNM, not public funds. The project cost about $12,000, all going to wages for local workers and YouthWorks apprentices, one of whom gained a permanent job with the sculptor from this work. The total grant is $50,000 for a total of THREE parklets which are MOBILE and will be moved around to different locations. This is just the first location with a willing landowner.” D.W. Reader View: Let’s revisit the Second Amendment, Nov. 15 Hank Bahnsen is wrong. The Second Amendment “ acknowledges and protects the (redundant) ‘individual right’ to own and use firearms. This newspaper opinion article is wrong and is nothing more than liberal/ progressive/gun-controller wishful thinking.” V.P. Your opinion is not supported by the [Supreme “ Court], which has determined the right to keep and bear arms to be an individual right.” D.T.
“
What a spectacle: 75 or so people ranting and raving about Mr. Bahnsen’s article. Consider this: Whatever rights the Second Amendment proclaims, a growing majority of Americans are choosing not to avail themselves of those rights. They understand that for most of the population, it is statistically safer not to own a firearm than to own one. For every story of someone who used a firearm to subdue a criminal, there are many stories of friends, relatives, children and innocent bystanders killed or wounded by privately owned firearms, including suicides. U.S. firearm deaths — 30,000 or more a year — are insanely off the charts compared to other developed countries.” H.T.

Streamline medical forms to save time
T
he average insured individual or family spends up to about 30 minutes filing out insurance forms submitted to medical specialists to complete and forward to different insurance companies. The time is now to get both the insurance industry and the governmental agencies to get together to draft a standardized, double-sided medical form. By doing this, the system can be streamlined and processing time can be reduced. Consider the various insurance companies’ desks, where the forms may be stacked for weeks before the agent has to review, submit to review boards for final decisions, follow up with telephone calls to medical providers, etc., before either payment is issued to the pro-
vider or reimbursement checks are issued. My main concern is the abundance of medical forms. These medical forms are so cumbersome to complete. I believe that by submitting these various forms to a private Steve insurance plan, we have Lotkin accepted the governmental bureaucratic snafu. My suggestion is to consider standardizing the form. Using existing medical forms that are utilized by the federal government for SSI Disability payments is one start. Submitting various insurance forms is suitable, but again, revisions are necessary.
Include the representatives of different insurance companies to iron out the inconsistencies of the forms. It should be possible to create a clear and comprehensive, double-sided form that can be streamlined. This is an opportunity for New Mexico, and the various health care providers need to sit down now and create the proper form for the nation to model in efficiency. Our elected officials can compromise among themselves to assist in streamlining such an obsolete system. Steve Lotkin lives in Las Cruces and is employed with ITT working in an operations control center responsible for a fleet of satellites owned by NASA.

A raw deal for college athletes? M
illions of fans are following the 2014 college football season. Major college sports programs are enjoying a wave of popularity measured by fan interest along with the huge sums of money that result. Last season, the 121 schools that comprise the college Football Bowl Subdivision reported revenues in excess of $7.1 billion, or an average of about $59 million per school. Despite the Tom vast sums of Kruckemeyer money filling the coffers of major college athletic departments, the college sports “world order” is threatened. The Northwestern University football Sarah Steelman team has made progress toward union representation. A U.S. District Court in California ruling earlier this year in the Ed O’Bannon case could allow for athletes to receive a share of the revenue generated by the use of their names and images; an appeal is being heard on an expedited schedule, with a ruling possible early next year. It is known that the current financial system generates vast amounts of money for big-time college football and men’s basketball programs. In view of the enormous amounts of revenue that they generate, it is becoming apparent that big-time college athletes may not be getting a fair shake. To answer this question, we need to know what a major college football and/or men’s basketball player would be paid if he was compensated in accordance with free market principles based on his true economic value. Our study, “College Athletes Everywhere Just Wanna Be Free,” answers this question. How did we do it? The Equity in Athletics Disclosure
Act (EADA) requires universities to report financial data pertaining to their athletic programs to the U.S. Department of Education. Using the EADA data for the revenues generated by each school’s football and men’s basketball program, adjusted to include a portion of so-called “Unallocated by Gender/Sport” revenue, along with assuming that a compensation system for college athletes would approximate those of their professional equivalents, we have determined that for the top 75 schools (in terms of revenue), the annual economic worth of an average football player is $435,000, and the economic worth of an average men’s basketball player is $591,000. Closer to home, an average University of New Mexico football player has an annual worth of $86,407, while an average University of New Mexico men’s basketball player has an annual worth of $281,732. Note that these are averages. Obviously, outstanding performers, as in professional sports, are worth substantially more. Contrast these amounts to the value of a scholarship for most
publicly supported universities; generally $18,000 to $30,000 a year. Clearly, big-time college football and men’s basketball players are being short-changed in terms of pure dollars. In addition, major college athletic programs often graduate a relatively low percentage of their players, fail to provide long-term health insurance that would cover chronic injuries sustained while playing and enforce restrictive rules that prevent players from attending another FBS school without sitting out a year. It is nearly impossible to argue that the status quo in big-time college sports treats the athletes fairly. Our paper discusses an array of potential improvements. These include paying a “stipend” that exceeds the cost of attendance, modifying transfer rules along with mandating comprehensive long-term health care/insurance. Certainly these sorts of changes would be beneficial, but in terms of bringing about genuinely equitable treatment for the athletes, may not do the job. As such, our paper also constructs a free-market
approach to paying college athletes in an openly professional system. In a free market, the largest FBS schools would participate in a college-sponsored professional league that would operate similar to the NFL/ NBA. The players would be paid a salary that reflects the revenue they actually generate. Athletes would be encouraged to enroll in their sponsoring college but not be required to. An openly professional system for compensating student athletes would eliminate the unfairness and exploitative nature of the current system of major college sports. It would obviate any need for under-thetable payments to players and/ or the need for academic dishonesty. Athletes everywhere just wanna be free.

Dear Mexican: I’ve been dating a Mexican man for a year now and am madly in love, claro. His excuse for everything is “I’m Mexican” — which, as you know, means that he works harder than anyone else, has bigger balls than any other male on the planet, and is so virile he can impregnate a woman just by blowing on her. What I don’t understand is that he rarely uses my name. I love being called chiquita bonita, but as far as I know, all of his friends are named vato or güey. What gives? Please help this loving gabachita to understand her hombre. Mamacita Chiquita Bonita Dear Gabacha: Mexican men not calling each other by their given name is a working class trait, like the Southern “son,” African American “man,” and the bro “bro.” The only Mexican twist we give to nicknames is calling people El (Insert Nickname) — El Barbie, El Gordo, El Chiquidracula, El Kennedy, etc. But that’s another question — and I’m out of space for this semana!

COMMENTARY: CHARLES M. BLOW
Fight is about more than immigration
D
on’t let yourself get lost in the weeds. Don’t allow yourself to believe that opposition to President Barack Obama’s executive actions on immigration is only about that issue, the president’s tactics, or his lack of obsequiousness to his detractors. This hostility and animosity toward this president is, in fact, larger than this president. This is about systems of power and the power of symbols. Particularly, it is about preserving traditional power and destroying emerging symbols that threaten that power. This president is simply the embodiment of the threat, as far as his detractors are concerned, whether they are willing or able to articulate it as such. A Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll last week found that the public “wants immigration policy along the lines of what President Barack Obama seeks but is skeptical of the executive action.” When the Journal looked at some of the people who “say they want to see a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants — which is beyond what Obama’s executive order would do — but say they disapprove of presidential executive action,” it found that the group was “overwhelmingly white and more likely to be Republican than not” and some said that they simply “don’t like anything associated with the president.” Pay attention to the overall response from all sources, particularly the rhetoric in which it is wrapped. Speaker John Boehner has accused Obama of acting like a “king” and an “emperor.” Rep. Louie Gohmert referred to Obama’s “new royal amnesty decree.” Andrew C. McCarthy, in National Review, went further, suggesting that Obama’s legal justification was a slippery slope to all manner of crime and vice: “Can the president make fraud and theft legal? How about assault? Cocaine use?

OUR VIEW
Market magic boosts city
T Perjury? You’d have to conclude he can — and that we have supplanted the Constitution with a monarchy — if you buy President Obama’s warped notion of prosecutorial discretion.” There is no denying the insinuations in such language: a fear of subjugation by people like this president, an “other” person, predisposed to lawlessness. As usual, issue-oriented opposition overlaps with a historical undercurrent, one desperate for demonstration (of liberal folly) and preservation (of conservative principles and traditional power). From this worldview, liberalism isn’t simply an alternate political sensibility, but a rot, an irreparable ruination, a violation of the laws of the land as the Founding Fathers (most of whom owned slaves at some point) envisioned, but also of the laws of nature, which they see as being directed by God. There are so many examples of this: opposition to LGBT rights, to the science undergirding climate change and efforts to arrest that change, and to allowing
women a full range of reproductive options. Maybe that’s why the president cited Scripture when laying out his immigration plan: “Scripture tells us that we shall not oppress a stranger, for we know the heart of a stranger — we were strangers once, too.” But that is surely to have fallen on deaf ear, if not hostile ones. Conservatives slammed the usage and Mike Huckabee went so far as to accuse the president of trying to rewrite the Bible while bizarrely invoking the Bill Cosby sexual assault allegations: “I always thought that Scripture was eternal and unchanging, but apparently, now that Obama is president, Scripture gets rewritten more often than Bill Cosby’s Wikipedia entry.” How dare the president — seen by some as a threat to Christianity — invoke Christianity in his defense! As Paul Ryan put it in 2012, the president’s policies put us on a “dangerous path,” one that “grows government, restricts freedom and liberty, and compromises those values, those Judeo-Christian, Western civili-
zation values that made us such a great and exceptional nation in the first place.” Sen. Tom Coburn upped the rhetoric last week, suggesting to USA Today that there could be a violent reaction to the president’s actions: “You’re going to see — hopefully not — but you could see instances of anarchy.” He added, “You could see violence.” This is not completely unlike the language used by the newly elected Iowa senator, Joni Ernst, who spoke during a 2012 NRA event of her gun and the “right to defend myself,” possibly “from the government, should they decide that my rights are no longer important.” Make no mistake: This debate is not just about this president, this executive order or immigration. This is about the fear that makes the face flush when people stare into a future in which traditional power — their power — is eroded, and about their desperate, by-any-means determination to deny that future.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Second Amendment column misleading
I
am dismayed by the “spin” incorporated in Hank Bahnsen’s opinion piece (“It’s time to revisit the Second Amendment,” My View, Nov. 16.) While his arguments contain several facts, they are presented in a manner designed to mislead readers. For example, he quotes the 1791 letter from the Virginia Legislature that accompanied its ratification of the first 10 amendments. His comments highlight the importance of a “well-regulated Militia.” Unfortunately, he omitted the part of the paragraph he quotes that contained the statement, “That the people have the right to keep and bear arms.” As one who presents himself as a “longterm student of American history,” Bahnsen should be aware of the 1982 report by the U.S. Senate Committee on the Judiciary titled “The Right To Keep And Bear Arms.” This document clearly supports the argument that the Second Amendment establishes an “individual right” and is not limited by reference to the militia.

Santa Fe
he Southwestern Association for Indian Arts is back this weekend with its ninth annual Winter Indian Market — the perfect prelude to the holiday season. Instead of visiting jam-packed stores to buy mass-produced gifts, this winter market offers a quieter shopping experience and a chance to meet the maker of that special gift in person. More broadly, winter market with its 200 artists is one of the best opportunities to shop locally. Many artists live in and around Santa Fe, and the dollars they earn are spent here. For visitors, the market offers another bonus to spending time in Santa Fe over the holidays. It, like Santa Fe, is unique. These one-on-one experiences, especially meeting the artists personally, add something extra to the custom of gift-giving. With Native art, a buyer is also embracing the centuries of culture and tradition that set a particular art form apart. In the same way, such markets make Santa Fe special. Winter Indian Market, taking place this weekend at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center, is about more than shopping. On Saturday and Sunday, marketgoers can take in art and meet the artists, all while enjoying live entertainment. There’s a children’s table, and for the first time, a Festival of Trees with more than a dozen fully decorated trees to be auctioned off to benefit Santa Fe Indian Market. (Find more details about hours and admission costs at www.swaia.org.) These markets should not be taken for granted. Winter Spanish Market has moved to Albuquerque, and will take place on Friday and Saturday at the Hotel Albuquerque. Now in its second year in Albuquerque, artists have reported a warm reception and increased sales. Not having Winter Spanish Market downtown is a loss during Santa Fe’s holiday season — we’d love to see city leaders approach Spanish Market officials and see if there’s a way to woo some sort of winter event back. The city’s newest market, the Indigenous Fine Art Market, also has taken its first winter show, Holiday Showcase, to Albuquerque, operating Saturday and Sunday at the Hotel Andaluz. (The International Folk Art Market is selling its goods online; go to www.ifamonline.org to see what’s available.) Obviously, markets are about expanding opportunities for artists. SWAIA, in addition to operating both summer and winter markets, just announced an arrangement with the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center in Albuquerque to promote Native art and artists (online, at www.shumakolowa. com). Reaching beyond Santa Fe buyers — whether local or tourists — is smart business. But Santa Fe — often called the City of Markets — also must realize that it’s smart economics for our city to support these specialty markets. We can do that individually by continuing to shop the markets and collectively, by finding out why some markets have moved, even if it’s just the smaller, winter events. That way, we will keep Santa Fe the best place in the country to shop one-on-one for handmade treasures.
Always money for war There are now 3,200 soldiers on the ground and hundreds of air, missile and drone strikes hitting targets in Iraq and Syria, and $58.6 billion was already approved in a rush by Congress for U.S. military re-involvement in Iraq and into the civil war in Syria. President Barack Obama is asking for $5.6 billion more. Why is it we always have money for military programs but not for infrastructure, education and social programs in our country? Just think what these billions of dollars could do if we used them to rebuild bridges, roads, schools, hospitals and health programs. Republicans want to cut Social Security, a program workers already pay for, but they’re happy to approve all military spending. It’s bombs and bullets over people every time. What does this say about our government, the voters and what the United States really stands for? Nancy King

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Nov. 25, 1914: Headline: Mob rules in the city of Mexico: Shops looted and pillaged. Washington apprehensive as to outcome of chaotic condition. Reports received this morning say mobs swarved over Mexico City last night looting stores, pawnshops and other places appropriating guns and ammunition. The last reports said civilians and mustered out soldiers went to the police and were sworn in as Special Forces and armed. It is hoped to bring order. Nov. 25, 1964: An old idea has been dredged up that could solve the city’s downtown parking problems in the Plaza area and yet not change the appearances of the Plaza, the heart of downtown Santa Fe. City Mayor Pat Hollis said this morning he was “enthusiastic” over a proposal for a giant excavation to provide underground parking for 200 or more cars under the heart of the city, the Plaza. The city is launching a feasibility study. Nov. 25, 1989: A faculty committee at the University of California has recommended the school end its management relationship with the Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore national laboratories. The majority of the Advisory Committee on the University’s Relations with the Department of Energy Laboratories concluded the university should “phase out its responsibility” for operating the lab in New Mexico and the facility in California.

‘Casablanca’ piano sold for $3.4M NEW YORK — It is one of the most famous pianos in the world, the piano Ingrid Bergman was close to when she delivered one of Hollywood’s unforgettable lines: “Play it, Sam. Play ‘As Time Goes By.’ ” It is the short little upright piano from Rick’s Café Américain in the movie Casablanca. It was sold at auction on
Monday for $3.4 million. The price included a 12 percent commission. It was auctioned at Bonhams in Manhattan. The buyer was not named. “It doesn’t look much different from how it looked in the movie,” the piano’s seller, Dr. Gary Milan, a Los Angeles dentist, said. The New York Times

MINEOLA, N.Y. — A nor’easter is expected to develop Wednesday along the East Coast just as millions of travelers are heading to their Thanksgiving destinations. “I would pack your patience,” said Robert Sinclair Jr., of AAA New York. The storm, forecast to dump rain along the coast and snow inland, could cause delays at Northeast airports and along its busy highways. Precipitation was forecast to sweep in from the south Tuesday night into Wednesday morning and exit the region Thursday morning. Jeff Masters, chief meteorologist for Weather Underground, said coastal cities are likely to mostly receive rain, although he cautioned Monday afternoon that meteorologists would be keeping a close eye on the rain/snow line. “A small deviation in the track could change things dramatically,” he said. As of Monday, the highest amount of snow was expected to fall in northeastern Pennsyl-
vania, the Catskills of upstate New York and into Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine. Ten inches was possible in some places, forecasters said. Officials at the three major airports in the New York City area — Kennedy, LaGuardia and Newark Liberty — were “monitoring weather forecasts carefully,” and were ready to take action if needed, said Steve Coleman, a spokesman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which operates the airports. All the major U.S. airlines were closely monitoring the situation but have not yet canceled flights or made any other changes. American Airlines was allowing passengers flying to some Northeast cities on Wednesday to move their flight, for free, to Tuesday or Thursday. Delta Air Lines had a similar waiver for Wednesday flights to the region, but it was letting passenger only reschedule for flights on Thursday or Friday, which might be too late for many travelers.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Fears of disastrous flooding from a rapid meltdown of the Buffalo area’s 7 feet of snow eased on Monday, but high winds became a menace, threatening to knock down trees and power lines. Forecasters, meanwhile, defended the National Weather Service following criticism from Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who accused the agency of failing to anticipate how bad Buffalo’s epic snowstorm would be. Cuomo, in the region for a sixth straight day, said statedeployed pumps and sandbags were in place as rain and temperatures over 60 rapidly melted the snow. Residents shoveled snow in T-shirts against the backdrop of white drifts. By late morning, minor to moderate flooding was reported in several creeks, but
nearby homes were largely spared, and the sewers in Buffalo and elsewhere were handling the runoff. The snowfall across the Buffalo area ranged from less than a foot to about 7½ feet. Forecasters said the potential for flooding remained through Wednesday morning. “The situation is not as problematic as it could have been,” Cuomo said a day after advising residents to pack a bag in case they needed to leave their homes. A new threat, he said, was wind — gusts up to 65 mph, with the potential to uproot trees and knock out power needed to operate homeowners’ basement sump pumps. At a news conference, the governor said he hadn’t intended to upset forecasters when he said over the weekend that the weather service was “off” on its predictions for the storm.

ST. PAUL, Minn. — A hummingbird has finally made its way south for the winter after accidentally ending up in Minnesota. The rufous hummingbird was released Sunday in Texas after being flown there on a private jet supplied by an anonymous donor, according to the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Minnesota. “We are delighted that the rufous hummingbird is free in the wild,” said Phil Jenni, executive director of the Roseville wildlife center. The bird was brought to the center earlier this month after it ended up at the feeder of a St. Paul homeowner. The woman rescued the hummingbird after she realized it wasn’t likely to survive the cold weather at the time. Experts believe the same system that brought the wintry weather blew the rust-colored bird off its migratory course, the Star Tribune reported.

Federal officials said the bird should have been allowed to find its own way to Mexico, where it typically migrates for the winter. But the bird, which weighed less than a penny, was considered somewhat underweight for migration, Jenni said. The wildlife center decided to transport the bird to a wildlife rehabilitator in Texas. There have only been 16 documented sightings of rufous hummingbirds in Minnesota since the 1970s. The bird is most commonly found in the Pacific Northwest. The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — Almost doesn’t cut it, but it sure does make for an interesting story. Riding a second half rally that completely erased a doubledigit deficit in the game’s final minute, The University of New Mexico women’s basketball team gave up a 6-0 in the final 30 seconds to No. 5 Stanford, losing 70-65 on Monday night in The Pit. What was shaping up to be possibly the biggest upset win in school history turned into a tough loss against a heavily favored national championship
contender. The Cardinal made headlines last week when it snapped defending champion UConn’s 47-game winning streak at Maples Pavilion in Palo Alto, Calif. In front of 6,594 fans in The Pit, the Lobos (0-4) nearly pulled off the impossible. “I told them if they gave me everything they had, I could live with the results,” said UNM head coach Yvonne Sanchez.

Ravens overwhelm Saints
Boston also picks up SS Hanley Ramirez By Janie McCauley The Associated Press
BOSTON — The Red Sox are hoping to spend their way out of the AL East cellar with two big free agent signings. The first team in major league history to go from worst to first and back again has agreed to terms third baseman Pablo Sandoval, his agent confirmed Monday night. According to a baseball official with knowledge of the deal, Boston also agreed to a deal with Hanley Ramirez, who came up to the major leagues with the Red Sox. The official confirmed both agreements on the condition of anonymity because the players hadn’t passed physicals. The Ramirez deal was expected to be finalized Tuesday. The moves give the Red Sox a potent batting order that includes two of the last three World Series MVPs, Sandoval and David Ortiz. But they still have to replace the four starting pitchers they traded last summer. Sandoval, 28, is a career .294 hitter who had 16 homers and 73 RBIs in the regular season this year and then hit .366 in the postseason while help-

Jeff Taylor apologizes, won’t appeal suspension By Steve Reed The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — An apologetic Jeffery Taylor said he will not appeal the NBA’s 24-game suspension following his guilty plea on domestic violence charges. The Hornets forward addressed the media on Monday and said he takes “full responsibility” for his actions and deemed NBA Commissioner Adam Silver’s punishment “appropriate.” Taylor apologized Jeff Taylor to the Hornets organization, his teammates and the woman whom he assaulted at the hotel in East Lansing, Michigan in September. Taylor said he has met with general manager Rich Cho and addressed his teammates, but has not yet spoken to owner Michael Jordan. The 25-year-old Taylor, the former Hobbs star who led the Eagles to the 2008 Class AAAAA state title, said he’s “genuinely sorry for everything

Forsett’s scoring runs went for 13 yards in the second quarter and 20 yards late in the fourth quarter to seal it. “The offensive line did a great job of making those lanes open for me,” Forsett said. “I just tried to seize the moment.” Brees passed for 420 yards and three touchdowns for New Orleans (4-7), which remained tied for first in its anemic division with Atlanta, which lost to Cleveland a day earlier.

Jimmy Graham had two TD catches for the Saints, who had won 14 straight home night games. Brees was sacked four times, and his pivotal interception came as he threw under pressure from Terrell Suggs. The pass was behind Graham, allowing Hill to snag it with nothing but open field in front of him. The play broke a 17-all tie and New Orleans never recovered. By the end of the game, the chants of “WhoDat,” for which Saints fans are known were replaced by the opening riff to the White Stripes song, “Seven Nation Army,” which Ravens fans also sang in the Superdome after their 2013 Super

Beckham’s one-handed grab one of many in NFL By Rob Maaddi New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., right, makes a one-handed catch for a touchdown against Dallas Cowboys cornerback Brandon Carr in the second quarter of Sunday’s game in East Rutherford, N.J.

Before most television cameras start rolling and fans enter the stadium, Odell Beckham Jr. practices making acrobatic, one-handed catches in pre-game warmups. It paid off for the rookie receiver. Beckham’s spectacular, leaping, right-handed grab while falling backward and drawing an interference penalty was the talk of the NFL and the Internet on Monday. Everyone from LeBron James to Hollywood celebs Elizabeth Banks and John Cusack marveled at Beckham’s touchdown catch in
the New York Giants’ loss to Dallas on Sunday night. “The greatest catch I’ve ever seen,” said James, who was an AllOhio wide receiver in high school. Banks tweeted: “Just back from the #AMAs and seeing replay of that Odell Beckman Jr. catch. OMG that was sick.” Cusack compared it to David Tyree’s helmet grab in the Super Bowl and Lynn Swann’s diving reception in an earlier Super Bowl. Beckham, however, does it every day in practice and before games. This catch just happened

NBA ROUNDUP
LeBron James leads Cavs over Magic The Associated Press
ROCKETS 91, KNICKS 86 In Houston, James Harden had 36 points to lead the depleted Houston to a victory over slumping New York Knicks. Houston (11-3) played without center Dwight Howard (knee) and point guard Patrick Beverley (hamstring), but Harden had half of the Rockets’ 14 3-pointers to overwhelm the Knicks, who played the second half without star forward Carmelo Anthony. Anthony left the game with less than two minutes remaining in the first half and did not return, suffering from back spasms, the team said. Anthony had 14 points. Jose Calderon and Travis Wear both had 9 points for the Knicks (4-11), who fell to 1-6 on the road and suffered their 10th loss in the last 12 games. Despite leaving so early in the game, Anthony led Knicks scorers, and none of his teammates scored double figures. Six other players scored at least 8 points, including five bench players. The Knicks made only two field goals in the final five minutes of the game.
CLEVELAND — LeBron James scored 29 points, including 16 in the first quarter, and the Cleveland Cavaliers broke a fourgame losing streak Cavaliers 106 with a 106-74 win over the Orlando Magic on Magic 74 Monday night. After bluntly assessing his own play at Monday’s shootaround, saying, “I stink,” James took control early and sparked his team to a much-needed comfortable win. After averaging 18.5 points and shooting 41 percent from the field in the losing streak, James was 9 for 17 from the field Monday and tied a season-high with 11 assists while not playing the fourth quarter. James hit four shots from the field, including a 3-pointer, made all seven of his free throws and had four assists in the opening period. He finished the first half with 22 points, including a fadeaway jumper from the top of the key to end the second quarter. Anderson Varejao scored 14 points while Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving each added 12. CLIPPERS 113, HORNETS 92 In Charlotte, N.C., Blake Griffin had 22 points and a season-high 16 rebounds, Chris Paul had 22 points and a season-high 15 assists and Los Angeles handed Charlotte their sixth straight loss. Griffin was 10 of 23 from the field and finished one assist shy of a triple-double. The Clippers were 15 of 32 from 3-point range, while the Hornets were just 2 of 20. Jamal Crawford had 21 points and J.J. Redick added 17 and the sharp-shooting duo combined to go 9 of 17 from beyond the arc. Paul came in averaging had 9.5 assists for the Clippers (8-5). Cody Zeller led the way for Charlotte with a career-high 17 points off the bench. Al Jefferson had 16 points and nine rebounds, and Kemba Walker added 15 points for the Hornets (4-11), who have lost eight of their last nine games. TRAIL BLAZERS 114, 76ERS 104 In Philadelphia, LaMarcus Aldridge had 15 of his 33 points during the pivotal third quarter to help Portland defeat Philadelphia, sending the 76ers to their 14th straight loss to open the season. Wesley Matthews added 17 points, Damian Lillard had 16 and Robin Lopez chipped in 12 for Portland (11-3), which won its eighth in a row. Michael Carter-Williams led Philadelphia (0-14) with 24 points. The 76ers moved within one loss of matching the franchise mark for consecutive losses to begin a season and will look

to avoid an 0-15 opening when they host Brooklyn on Wednesday. They also are just four losses from tying the 2009-10 Nets, who set an NBA record by beginning the season 0-18. If the losing continues, Philadelphia could break the NBA record for losses to start the season on Dec. 5 when hosting Oklahoma City. RAPTORS 104, SUNS 100 In Toronto, Jonas Valanciunas had a career-high 27 points and 11 rebounds, DeMar DeRozan scored 23 and Toronto won their fifth straight game, beating Phoenix Suns 104-100. Lou Williams scored 17, Kyle Lowry had 14 and Terrence Ross added 13 for the Raptors, who improved 9-1 at home and 4-0 against Western Conference opponents. Eric Bledsoe scored 25 points and Markieff Morris had 17 for the Suns, whose four-game winning streak was snapped. Phoenix had not lost since the opening game of their six-game road trip, Nov. 15 against the Clippers. Isaiah Thomas scored 12 of his 16 in the fourth quarter and Gerald Green had 13 for Phoenix, but made a costly turnover in the final seconds.
PACERS 111, MAVERICKS 100 In Dallas, Donald Sloan scored 29 points and seven Indiana players scored in double figures in a victory over Dallas. The Pacers led the entire second half, and set a season high in points and equaled their season high in field-goal percentage (48.1). Indiana got a double-double from Luis Scola, who scored 14 points and grabbed 11 rebounds. Solomon Hill and Rodney Stuckey each scored 12 points, while Chris Copeland and Damjan Rudez each had 11, and Ian Mahinmi added 10. Mahinmi made his first start of the season with center Roy Hibbert sidelined with a sprained ankle. The Mavericks, who have lost two straight, were led by Monta Ellis with 24 points. Dirk Nowitzki added 22 points and teamhigh 11 rebounds. Chandler Parsons scored 16 and Devin Harris 13. BULLS 97, JAZZ 95 In Salt Lake City, Jimmy Butler scored 25 points and Pau Gasol added 23 points and nine rebounds to lead Chicago to a victory over Utah. Derrick Rose scored 18 points in his return to the Bulls’ lineup. Chicago beat the Jazz for ninth time in the last 12 games between the two teams. Derrick Favors scored 21 points and pulled down a season-high 15 rebounds for Utah, which rallied from a 21-point deficit, but couldn’t close it out. Enes Kanter had 19 points and eight rebounds while Trey Burke had 18 and 10 assists. Utah took its first lead of the game early in the fourth quarter when Trevor Booker made a layup to put the Jazz up 80-78.
Taylor: Eligible to return for Dec. 17 game Continued from Page B-1 that happened.” The NBA Players Association last week called the suspension “excessive” and said it would support an appeal by Taylor. Taylor chose not to appeal the suspension, which will cost him nearly $200,000 of his $915,000 salary this season. “My actions were wrong and I don’t care to appeal a decision that was based off my actions being wrong,” Taylor said. “So I respect the league’s decision on the suspension and I will take all of the necessary steps to make sure nothing like that ever happens again.” Taylor apologized repeatedly to the victim, but would not say if they are still romantically involved. “There’s not a day that doesn’t go by that I don’t regret what happened and wish I could go back and change everything and make one better decision,” Taylor said. Silver sent a stern message on the league’s lack of tolerance for domestic violence
last Wednesday when he suspended Taylor without pay for 24 games after Taylor pleaded guilty Oct. 29 to misdemeanor domestic violence assault and malicious destruction of hotel property. Taylor is eligible to return to action Dec. 17 against Phoenix. “While the suspension is significantly longer than prior suspensions for incidents of domestic violence by NBA players, it is appropriate in light of Mr. Taylor’s conduct, the need to deter similar conduct going forward, and the evolving social consensus — with which we fully concur — that professional sports leagues like the NBA must respond to such incidents in a more rigorous way,” Silver said in a release last week. The NBA conducted an investigation into Taylor’s arrest following an altercation with a woman with whom he was having a romantic relationship. Taylor and the woman were drinking heavily at a hotel room and a loud argument ensued, prompting guests to
call security, the league’s statement outlined. The argument escalated and Taylor shoved the woman in a violent manner into the hallway where she fell to the ground and struck her head on an opposite door. The statement also said Taylor slapped her arm and punched a hole in the wall near his hotel room. The woman had marks on her upper arm and a bump on her head but declined medical treatment, the report said. Silver ordered Taylor to enter an outpatient alcohol treatment program and perform alcohol sensor tests daily for 60 days. After that, he is subject to random testing by the probation department. He must also perform 80 hours of community service. Taylor said he didn’t want to discuss the incidents of that morning or what was released in the commissioner’s report. He said he has already begun counseling and that alcohol is “something I need to remove from my life.” Domestic violence has been at the forefront of the national
sports scene this year, ever since Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice punched his then-fiance in a hotel elevator. Taylor refused to blame the media focus on domestic violence as a reason for the severe punishment. “I think it is appropriate and I respect the commissioner’s decision,” Taylor said. A former second-round pick out of Vanderbilt, Taylor spent the last two seasons vying for playing time with Michael Kidd-Gilchrist before tearing his Achilles last year. He has averaged 6.6 points and 2.0 rebounds for his career. As for how the suspension — and the negative publicity that comes with it — will affect his career, Taylor said that is not his primary concern. “The basketball part will work itself out,” Taylor said. “I’m more concerned with the person involved and making sure that she was OK and making sure my family was OK and working out the legal process. Basketball, at the end of the day, was not the most important part.”
Lobos: Team winless through four games Continued from Page B-1 ford enjoyed a 50-31 rebounding advantage. A St. Michael’s graduate, Chavez spent Monday night at UNM Hospital with a kidney infection. After Stanford opened a 16-point lead just six minutes into the game, the Lobos battled back to tie it at 35 by halftime. The Cardinal began pulling away in the second half, building a 63-53 lead on a Karlie Samuelson 3-pointer with just under five minutes remaining. UNM responded with a late flurry, outscoring Stanford 12-1 over a frantic four-minute span that ended with Bryce Owens hitting one of two free throws to put the Lobos in front with
46 seconds left. “We did everything we could to win the basketball game,” Sanchez said. “You know, you just can’t give Stanford a crack. You can’t give them an opening. You can’t give them a sliver. Because a team like that will take advantage, and they did.” Kaylee Johnson’s two free throws 30 seconds left put the Cardinal back in front. UNM’s Antiesha Brown had a chance to give the Lobos the lead with 20 seconds left but missed a pair of free throws. “We were 7-for-16 so other people missed free throws too,” Sanchez said. “Sometimes you just remember the last two.” Bonnie Samuelson put Stan-
ford up 68-65 with two free throws with 15 seconds left, giving UNM one last chance to tie it. Freshman Cherise Benyon’s potential equalizer with seven seconds left was blocked by Stanford’s Amber Orrange. Winless through four games, the Lobos have dropped three of those to teams ranked in the top 25, including two in the top five. “I’ll take the effort,” Sanchez said. “I don’t like losing, obviously, and none of us do. I know the schedule is tough. I know it’s probably a little bit crazy to have this schedule, but it’s going to pay dividends because I’m telling you: This is a special group of young ladies.”
Owens led the Lobos with 16 points. Benyon added 14 points while Khadijah Shumpert had 13 and Brown 11. Benyon, Shumpert and Brown all had five rebounds. Karlie Samuelson had a game-high 23 points while Johnson had 22 rebounds and 10 points. Orrange had 18 points with five boards. The two free throws by Bonnie Samuelson late in the game were her only points of the night. The Lobos return to action Friday in the opening round of their annual Thanksgiving tournament in The Pit.

Ravens: Interception proves costly for Saints Continued from Page B-1 Bowl triumph over San Francisco. The Saints carried a 17-14 lead into halftime on Brees’ 26-yard scoring pass to Marques Colston, who brought it in while leaping between two defensive backs. The Ravens tied the game on Justin Tucker’s 31-yard field goal in the third quarter. Baltimore’s Joe Flacco was 18 for 24 for 243 yards and one touchdown. Smith and Forsett gave the Saints fits throughout the game. Smith caught four passes for 89 yards, and his first-down catch in the third quarter also precipitated a scuffle for which Saints safety Kenny Vaccaro was assessed a personal foul. Forsett, whose 5.4 yards per carry coming into the game led all NFL running backs,
averaged 8.3 yards per rush. Baltimore’s Elvis Dumervil had two sacks, while Suggs and C.J. Mosley each had one. Brees’ first scoring pass went for 10 yards to Graham. Joe Morgan, who struggled to crack New Orleans’ lineup earlier this season and then was suspended two games for undisclosed team violations, broke loose for two plays longer than 60 yards the first two times he touched the ball. He gained 67 yards on a running play on New Orleans’ opening drive, and then caught a 62-yard pass on the Saints’ third series, setting up Graham’s TD. The Saints were in position to take an early lead after Morgan’s long gain on an end-around. It took defensive back Lardarius Webb’s horse-collar tackle at the 2 to prevent Morgan from scoring.
The play gave New Orleans first-and-goal on the 1, but the Ravens stopped two runs by Mark Ingram and a scramble by Brees before stuffing Ingram again — this time for a loss of 2 yards — on fourth-and-goal. Taking over at its 3, Baltimore needed just one play to break out of the shadow of its own end zone. Forsett burst through the middle of the line and scampered 38 yards to the 41. Then it was time for Smith, a longtime Saints nemesis from his 13 seasons with Carolina, to torment Saints fans a little more. He had a clutch third-down catch to sustain the drive, which culminated with his touchdown catch as he crashed down backward at the left edge of the end zone. That gave Smith 11 career touchdown catches against New Orleans, more than he has against any other team.
Grab: Beckham made one-handers before Continued from Page B-1 to be in front of a national television audience against the Cowboys. His teammates, coaches and anyone who watched him play weren’t surprised. “He practices that onehanded snag,” said Eli Manning, who also threw the pass to Tyree that helped the Giants beat New England. “He’s got big hands and great concentration and he can make those plays. That was a pretty great one.” Beckham made several stunning catches at LSU, including a diving, one-handed grab against Iowa in the Outback Bowl. “I saw him and Jarvis [Landry] do things like that on the practice field all the time. I mean all the time,” LSU coach Les Miles said. “They finally caught one on camera, I guess. It’s something that we would
have expected.” NBC analyst Cris Collinsworth, a three-time Pro Bowl receiver in the ’80s, repeated: “That might be the greatest catch I’ve ever seen.” When asked about working on one-handed catches recently, Beckham said: “It’s something you just have to practice. The opportunity sometimes presents itself and you know you want to be prepared. That is one of those things that I have been doing for a long time. Jarvis Landry and I would always do that every day in practice. We wouldn’t compete, but we would see who could make the most ridiculous catch.” Many players work on onehanded catches in practice and afterward on the JUGS machine. It’s not just receivers, either. Two-time All-Pro defensive end J.J. Watt catches balls onehanded before games, too. Of
course, Watt has actually lined up as a receiver and has two TD catches this season. “It’s partially just hand-eye coordination before the game and it’s partially to warm up the hands a little bit, partially for fun,” Watt said. “The more you can do, the better athlete you can [be], the better you’re going to be on the field. It’s all part of it.” San Francisco’s Stevie Johnson said you can practice the one-handed catches by tossing the ball in the air and out of view and then trying to catch it, but when it comes to games, it’s a natural instinct for a softhanded wideout — with a little assist from those sticky receiver gloves they wear, too. “It’s a little bit of both, the gloves and his talent,” Johnson said. “It was a solid catch.” Several players have made amazing one-handed catches
this season, including Carolina’s Kelvin Benjamin, Chicago’s Brandon Marshall, New England’s Rob Gronkowski, Philadelphia’s Jeremy Maclin and Miami’s Mike Wallace. Buffalo’s Robert Woods got into the act Monday night against the New York Jets. Woods appeared to get his left arm tangled a bit with a defender, so he reached up with his right, gently bobbling the ball at first before controlling it with that one hand for a 27-yard gain. Benjamin rated Beckham’s grab a 9.0 and joked that he only gets a 10 if he would’ve caught it with his eyes closed. Unlike Beckham and others, the Panthers rookie doesn’t practice one-handed catches. “One-handed catches are just reaction catches,” he said. “You just go to that zone at the moment. It’s entertainment.”
Sandoval: Was named a World Series MVP Continued from Page B-1 ing the Giants win their third World Series in five years. With his everyman body type and colorful nickname — Kung Fu Panda — the switch hitter was a fan favorite in the Bay Area. “He has been with us through some of the greatest moments in San Francisco Giants history — including all three World Series championships,” the Giants said in a statement. “We will never forget his World
Series MVP performance in 2012 and his numerous contributions to the 2014 championship. His connection with Giants fans — young and old — is truly special, and he will be greatly missed. We wish him nothing but the best in Boston.” Ramirez came up in the Red Sox system and was still a prospect when he was traded to the Florida Marlins in the deal that brought Josh Beckett and future World Series MVP Mike Lowell to Boston.
The 30-year-old shortstop batted .300 with 13 homers and 71 RBIs for Los Angeles this year. Boston already seems set at shortstop with 22-year-old Xander Bogaerts, and with Sandoval at third they are expected to move Ramirez to left field. He has never played outfield in the majors. The moves give the Red Sox a surplus of outfielders, with Ramirez potentially joining Yoenis Cespedes, Rusney Cas-
tillo, Shane Victorino, Jackie Bradley Jr. Allen Craig, Mookie Betts and Daniel Nava. They are expected to shop some of the extras for pitching, which they have been lacking since dealing Jon Lester, John Lackey, Jake Peavy and Felix Doubrount near the July 31 deadline for trades without waivers. Boston will not forfeit the No. 7 overall pick in June’s amateur draft but will give up the second and third selections.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Man has trouble with social clues Dear Annie: In my circle of friends, there is a 23-year-old man with Asperger syndrome who drives me crazy. This guy has zero understanding of boundaries. He’ll argue, interrupt conversations and answer back to everyone, and he lectures incessantly. He once spent an evening interrupting every conversation I had until finally I said, “Joe, I’m talking to someone else now. Enough.” He went to interrupt someone else. When we went to someone’s house recently, he walked in the door, asked the hostess to go to the store and buy him something he wanted and then requested that she loan him a bunch of DVDs. Here’s the problem. We’ll be going out together as a group to a concert, and afterward, I’d like to invite some friends back to my place. I only have seats for seven people, and I don’t want to include Joe. I know he will ask to use my computer, make ridiculous requests, ask to borrow my stuff, go through my closets and monopolize every conversation. How do I politely leave him out? If a bunch of us are together for the concert, one of them is bound to say, “We’re going to Tom’s place,” and Joe will think he is invited, too. I realize I will look like a jerk to exclude him, but it’s my house, and I should be able to invite whom I choose. Shouldn’t there be an expectation of proper courtesy and etiquette? — Bob Dear Bob: Yes — and no. Someone with Asperger’s is unlikely to understand these expectations and needs to be taught. This means explaining nicely (and consistently) when something is inappropriate and informing him how to behave in a way that will make him welcome. Getting angry only confuses him and teaches him nothing. Nonetheless, if you are incapable of that much compassion for Joe, you do not have to invite him. But we don’t recommend you exclude him during a group activity. Instead, if you wish to entertain without him, invite each friend individually for a specific time and date, and let them know the guest list is small. Dear Annie: My husband has two older half-sisters he hasn’t
seen in years. I’ve spent six years trying to find them, but I’ve come up short. It doesn’t help that they have common first and last names. I’ve tried Facebook, Google, etc. My husband hasn’t spoken to his father in years, due to his father’s abuse and alcoholism and the fact that his dad never wanted him. His mother is of no help, either. What else can I do to find them? — A. Dear A.: Does your husband want you to find his sisters? If not, please leave this alone. If he wants to locate them, he should ask his father (or mother) how to find them, possibly through family members or neighbors from their previous hometown. You also could hire a professional investigator to help you. Dear Annie: This is in response to “Hoping for Better Times,” the writer with MS who wanted his siblings to visit. He is married, and his wife sounds supportive. Please tell your readers who long for company to extend an invitation. Anytime people receive a direct invitation to visit on a particular day and at a particular time for dinner, snacks or dessert, whether it’s to play cards, watch a movie or go for a handicapaccessible walk, they usually will respond. If they are unable to attend, reschedule the invitation to fit their busy lives, and don’t expect everyone to come at the same time. Have one sibling over, with or without other family members. If able, offer to babysit a niece or nephew for a short period of time to get to know them. Take charge of your loneliness, and don’t talk only of your illness while visiting with others. Those conversations should be short and direct. An MS support group will help. — Licensed Psychologist Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH You might be upset by someone’s words — in fact, you could develop a cavalier attitude as a result. Tonight: Make it early. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You are likely to be disappointed by someone’s knee-jerk reaction. Tonight: Wherever you are, others will want to be. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH You could be taken aback by all the ground you need to cover. Tonight: Carefully weigh the pros and cons of what you want to do. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Whereas others seem to fumble under the pressure, you’ll endure and flourish. Tonight: Be spontaneous.
Cryptoquip
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Understand that you’ll need to deal with someone with whom it is nearly impossible to have an open, honest conversation. Tonight: Put distance between you and others. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH While others mope around, you’ll bring friends together for a meeting. You will accomplish a lot with an open discussion. Tonight: Where the crowds are. Jacqueline Bigar
The Cryptoquip is a substitution cipher in which one letter stands for another. If you think that X equals O, it will equal O throughout the puzzle. Single letters, short words and words using an apostrophe give you clues to locating vowels. Solution is by trial and error. © 2014 by King Features Syndicate, Inc.
