WASHINGTON he Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday issued a sweeping indictment of the Central Intelligence Agency’s program to detain and interrogate terrorism suspects in the years after the Sept. 11 attacks, drawing on millions of internal CIA documents to illuminate practices that it said were more brutal — and far less effective — than the agency acknowledged either to Bush administration officials or to the public. The long-delayed report delivers a withering judgment on one of the most controversial tactics of a twilight war waged over a dozen years. The Senate committee’s investigation, born of what its chairwoman, Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California, said was a need to reckon with the excesses of this war, found that CIA officials routinely misled the White House and Congress about the information it obtained, and failed to provide basic oversight of the secret prisons it established around the world. In exhaustive detail, the report gives a macabre accounting of some of the grisliest techniques

As a review continues into the radioactive waste leak from a container at the underground nuclear repository near Carlsbad, one looming question is whether the private group managing Los Alamos National Laboratory, where the ruptured container originated, should continue to operate the facility. Sen. Tom Udall, Tom Udall D-N.M. stopped short of saying a new contractor should manage LANL, but he said Tuesday that the U.S. Department of Energy needs to take a “hard look” at the management contract currently held by Los Alamos National Security LLC in light of the recent missteps in handling hazardous waste. The barrel of lab-processed nuclear waste that leaked and shut down the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant isn’t the first major problem for Los Alamos National Security, the private consortium of four companies that has a $2.2 billion annual contract to manage the weapons complex. The consortium of Bechtel National Inc; Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Group; URS Energy and Construction Corp.; and the University of California was

Report may damage U.S. standing globally By Griff Witte The Washington Post

LONDON — Born out of the horror over the 9/11 attacks, the CIA’s secret program of detention and interrogation was intended to make the United States safer. But exposure of the program’s extreme brutality on Tuesday appeared likely to increase the danger for Americans overseas and further constrain U.S. foreign policymaking.

If there is any indication that something has changed with the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange, it is the website tab that reads, “Find a Real Person Near You.” As enrollment for mandatory health insurance is again underway, the directors of the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange are responding to complaints last year about a confusing enrollment system and too few counselors with a promise that individuals seeking help will see fewer jingles and TV commercials and more direct assistance this year. “One thing we found last year is that presentations are not effective,” exchange CEO Amy Dowd told state legislators recently. “We are looking at what we learned” and moving toward “very strong, grass-roots, one-on-one enrollment. We are refocusing on areas we see will have the most impact.” She said enrollment in the exchange is still complicated and that the choice of insurance is too individualized for mass media and large presentations. She hopes the renewed effort to work with insurance brokers who can provide individualized help will boost the number of people who purchase a health insurance plan. Other simple links on the bewellnm.com website include, “How Do I Enroll,” “Find Free Help” and “Renewals.” State Sen. Nancy Rodriguez, a Santa Fe Democrat, said constituents were overwhelmed with the confusing outreach last year. “They should be able to say, ‘I want an appointment to meet someone. Where can I go to do that?’ ” “Someone going out on the Internet was swamped,” added Sen. Cisco McSorley, D-Albuquerque. “We didn’t have enough counselors, and they didn’t know what they were doing.” The Affordable Care Act requires that all individuals, except undocumented residents and tribal members, have health insurance through an employer or an individual plan or pay a penalty when federal income

Supreme Court rules for Amazon Workers denied pay for time spent waiting for security clearance By Robert Barnes The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court ruled unanimously Tuesday that workers who fill orders in Amazon.com warehouses need not be paid for the time they spend in security lines at the end of their shifts to make sure they haven’t stolen any products. The court reversed lower court ruling for the workers, who alleged they spent up to 25 minutes at warehouses in Nevada waiting to go through security clearance. But Justice Clarence Thomas said that federal law requires that workers be paid for activities before and after their shifts only when the activities are “integral and indispensable” to the job they are hired to perform. “The Court of Appeals erred by focusing on whether an employer required a particular activity,” Thomas wrote. “The integral and indispensable test is tied to the productive work that the employee is employed to perform.” He added that Integrity Staffing Solutions, a company that provides workers for Amazon warehouses across the nation, “did not employ its workers to undergo security screenings, but to retrieve products from warehouse shelves and package those products for shipment to Amazon customers.” The implications of the decision would have been great had it gone the other way. There are more than a dozen class-action suits filed against Amazon and other companies that use security checks at the end of shifts to make sure none of their inventory walks out with the workers. The workers had claimed that because the security checks were required in order to keep their jobs, they should be compensated for their time. And they said that the company could cut the wait time by employing more security screeners or staggering shifts so that not all the workers were released at once. But the court agreed with the Obama administration in reading the law to favor the company. And Thomas said it was not relevant to the law whether the company had ways to reduce the wait time. “These arguments are properly presented to the employer at the bargaining table, not to a court,” he wrote. The case, Integrity Staffing Solutions v. Busk, was one of the first two signed opinions of the court’s current term. In the other, the justices were also unanimous, ruling that a juror’s comments during trial deliberations cannot be used to show a dishonesty that could lead to a new trial.

Job, home mismatch frustrates buyers Hard-to-afford housing found in areas with strongest employment By Josh Boak The Associated Press

WASHINGTON t’s the new career trade-off: Around the country, areas with the strongest job markets increasingly have some of the costliest homes. And areas with the most affordable homes lack a solid base of middle class jobs that attract workers. College graduates and younger families have been clustering in coastal cities such as New York, San Francisco and Seattle, where incomes are generally ample and solid middle-class jobs plentiful. Yet studies and government data show that homes in these areas have become prohibitively expensive. The result is the dream of homeownership for many is proving frustrating, being deferred or abandoned, even for people with comfortable incomes. “This great mismatch is hurting middle class people who would like to be homeowners,” said Nela Richardson, chief economist at the real estate brokerage Redfin. Roughly 40 percent of households in New York, San Francisco, Seattle, parts of Connecticut and Colorado, and Washington, D.C., earn more than $100,000 annually, compared with just 22 percent nationwide, according to the Census Bureau. Areas that do offer inexpensive housing across the Midwest’s industrial corridor — Akron, Ohio, say, or Fort Wayne, Ind. — lack the same breadth of career possibilities. This trend has likely helped hold back U.S. economic growth. Cities with the strongest job markets would grow even faster if more people could afford to live there, noted Jed Kolko, chief economist at the online real estate firm Trulia. The additional population would help spur further job growth, which, in turn, would strengthen the local economy and foster more middleclass jobs. Two factors are getting in the way. Tighter credit has made it harder to buy a home in the costliest areas with a down payment of under 10 percent.

In brief Fed wants banks to boost capital WASHINGTON — Federal regulators are proposing that the eight biggest U.S. banks be required to further increase the amount of capital they set aside to cushion against unexpected losses. The Fed governors voted 5-0 at a meeting Tuesday to advance the so-called “capital surcharges,” opening them to public comment through Feb. 28. The requirements would give the banks an incentive to shed businesses and downsize to avoid having to set aside more capital. The requirements would be phased in from 2016 through 2018. Fed officials said nearly all eight banks already meet the stricter capital requirements, and that all of them are “on their way” to meeting them by the Jan. 1, 2019 deadline for full implementation.

Gruber sorry for ‘glib’ remarks WASHINGTON — MIT economist Jonathan Gruber — an often-quoted adviser on the president’s health care law — told Congress on Tuesday he was glib and “inexcusably arrogant” when he said it was “the stupidity of the American voter” that led to the law’s passage. Democrats tried to limit the damage as Republicans raked Gruber at a four-hour hearing, but acknowledged he gave the GOP a political gift “wrapped in a bow.” Gruber told groups in 2012 and 2013 that voter stupidity and a “lack of transparency” were important to passing the hard-fought legislation. Appearing before the House Oversight committee Tuesday, Gruber expanded on earlier apologies, repeatedly saying “I was conjecturing in areas beyond my expertise.” He said the law’s passage was actually transparent and heavily debated in public, despite his earlier comments. And Gruber said he was not the “architect” of the law, as some press accounts had claimed.

gation, police said. Prosecutors will determine whether the 30-year-old officer will face criminal charges in the Dec. 2 shooting. Police previously said 34-year-old Rumain Brisbon, who was black, was unarmed when he was shot by a white officer investigating a tip that Brisbon was doing a drug deal inside an SUV in the parking lot of his apartment complex. Brisbon failed to obey the officer’s commands and ran to an apartment where a struggle turned deadly, police said.

Report says Iran buying a reactor UNITED NATIONS — Iran is being accused of illicitly stepping up purchases for its heavy water reactor, which if completed will produce enough plutonium for several nuclear weapons a year, U.N. diplomats said Tuesday. What to do with the research reactor, which is under construction in the city of Arak, is among the disagreements between Iran and the U.S. at ongoing talks meant to put longterm curbs on Tehran’s nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. The U.S. and its partners want Iran to agree to re-engineer Arak to a light-water reactor that produces only minuscule amounts of plutonium. The Iranians would rather re-engineer it to produce less plutonium — but that process is reversible, and therefore opposed by the Americans.

IRS paid $6 billion bogus tax credits

WASHINGTON — The IRS paid at least $6 billion in child tax credits in 2013 to people who weren’t eligible to receive them, a government investigator said Tuesday. Payments went to families that mistakenly claimed the tax credit or claimed the wrong amount, as well as taxpayers who committed fraud, according to an audit by J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration. The audit highlights problems with a tax credit that President Barack Obama has championed as a way to help low-income working families. Obama’s 2009 economic stimulus package temporarily expanded the credit to more families that don’t make enough money to PHOENIX — Police on pay federal income tax.

Leading up to the recession, mortgages with no or low down payments reached destructive excesses. Yet first-time buyers who have stable incomes are struggling to afford homes without these options, noted Nela Richardson, chief economist at the real estate brokerage Redfin. Young adults continue to stream into many of the top job-generating areas despite the daunting housing costs. Nearly 52 percent of people who moved to the Bay Area over the past 12 months were millennials, according to Zillow. Similarly high percentages exist in New York City, Seattle, Denver and Washington. Nationally, home prices are generally three times the size of annual incomes. Yet that ratio ranges from 3.5-to-1 in Washington to 7.1-to-1 in San Francisco. The challenge of shifting from rentals to ownership has become more problematic, particularly as younger workers look to marry and raise children. Affordable housing still exists, of course, in many areas. Millennials have the money to buy nearly 80 percent of homes available in Akron, Ohio, and Rochester, N.Y., according to Trulia. Several Texas cities, buoyed by the energy boom, offer both decent salaries and homeownership. But most affordable areas lack substantial job opportunities. When Jennifer Ewing left New York City two years ago, she figured housing would be reasonable in Seattle, where her husband had taken a job as a manager with Expedia. “We thought we could get a beautiful four-bedroom house with a view,” said Ewing, 38. “Then we got here, and that wasn’t realistic at all.” They found a house on a quiet street and offered 10 percent above the asking price, only to learn that theirs was the lowest of six bids. For just under $500,000, they recently closed on a three-bedroom house a couple of blocks from a school for their two sons. Unaffordable cities could relieve the price pressures by building more homes. Seattle real estate broker Tyler McKenzie expects the squeeze to tighten. “We have as little [home] inventory as I’ve seen in my lifetime — and I’m over 50,” McKenzie said.

Police protests personal; outcome unclear Andrew McFadyenKetchum

‘Is this movement or a moment?’ a Harvard lecturer asks

‘‘

It’s been the greatest week of my life”

By Adam Geller The Associated Press

Across the country, protesters angered at the killing of unarmed black men by white police officers have turned out in recent days, many in cities far removed from where the most highly publicized cases have played out. They are students and grandmothers, experienced protesters as well as novices, often as many white as black. But while marchers speak emotionally about being galvanizing by this cause, both they and experts on the fiery history of U.S. social protest are hardpressed to figure where the demands for change will lead. “Is this a movement or a moment?” said Marshall Ganz, a Harvard University lecturer whose perspective was shaped by participation in the 1964 Freedom Summer civil rights drive in Mississippi and then by 16 years working to organize migrant farm workers. Following grand jury decisions not to indict police officers in the killing of Michael Brown in Missouri and Eric Garner in New York, he said the widespread protests are “kind of remarkable, all the different cities involved.” Will marches keep going and growing? That will turn on organizers’ ability to funnel frustration over deaths into a push for concrete demands, said David S. Meyer, author of The Politics of Protest: Social Movements in America, and a professor at the University of California, Irvine. That is a path some individual protesters struggle to visualize. But their accounts of how they came to join protests show how a national issue has turned into something deeply personal.

From Colorado to Missouri Through the fall, Andrew McFadyen-Ketchum read about Brown’s and Garner’s deaths and was reminded of friends he knew growing up in a mixedrace neighborhood in Nashville, Tenn. But his schedule teaching English at the University of Colorado and touring to promote a book of poems left little time to

do more than ponder. Then, on Thanksgiving, someone texted him about a march the NAACP planned 800 miles away in Missouri to protest the grand jury’s decision not to indict officer Darren Wilson for Brown’s death. “I was just feeling like, man, I need to do something,” said McFadyen-Ketchum, who is 33 and white. In Ferguson, he joined a crowd that would march from that city into rural towns “It’s been the greatest week of my life,” he said, recalling how, when the marchers had their feet washed and their shoes anointed at a church, he had wept.

‘‘

For me, protesting is a kind of antidote to dispair.”

‘‘

For me, it’s been an entirely uplifting situation.”

Thanksgiving table at an uncle’s home in Azusa, somber conversation about the Brown and Garner killings served as a reminder of how their lives remains framed by race. “My mother, who is the mother of three black sons, was devastated,” by video of Garner, flailing against a police officer’s chokehold, he said. It was “profoundly heartbreaking,” he added. Holiday plans had called for a movie after dinner. Instead, Aswad, a brother and his girlfriend, and a cousin went to bed early so they could wake up for a protest in Los Angeles.

She worries about the students, most of them black, that she knows from her work as an artist-in-residence at Cleveland School of the Arts. After a Cleveland police officer shot and killed a 12-year-old holding a pellet gun in a playground last month, just as the country was fixated by the killings in Missouri and New York, she felt the need to speak out. “For me, protesting is a kind of antidote to despair,” she said.

Last French hostage freed, reviving policy debate on negotiations PARIS — France’s last hostage was freed Tuesday after being held for more than three years by al-Qaida’s North Africa branch — rekindling debate over whether countries should negotiate with extremists. French President Francois Hollande announced the “happy news” that 51-year-old Serge Lazarevic had been freed from captivity in Mali, prompting a standing ovation in the National Assembly. The release stood in sharp contrast to the failed rescue in Yemen last weekend that ended in the deaths of an American journalist and a

CIA report reactions

Report: Obama defends CIA workers, blasts actions

Some reaction to the Senate Intelligence Committee report released Tuesday on the CIA's harsh interrogation techniques at secret overseas facilities after the 9/11 terror attacks:

that the CIA used to torture and imprison terrorism suspects. Detainees were deprived of sleep for as long as a week, and were sometimes told that they would be killed while in U.S. custody. With the approval of the CIA’s medical staff, some CIA prisoners were subjected to medically unnecessary “rectal feeding” or “rectal hydration” — a technique that the CIA’s chief of interrogations described as a way to exert “total control over the detainee.” CIA medical staff members described the waterboarding of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the chief planner of the Sept. 11 attacks, as a “series of near drownings.” The report also suggests that more prisoners were subjected to waterboarding than the three the CIA has acknowledged in the past. The committee obtained a photograph of a waterboard surrounded by buckets of water at the prison in Afghanistan commonly known as the Salt Pit, a facility where the CIA had claimed that waterboarding was never used. One clandestine officer described the prison as a “dungeon,” and another said that some prisoners there “literally looked like a dog that had been kenneled.” The release of the report was severely criticized by current and former CIA officials, leaving the White House trying to chart a middle course between denouncing a program that President Barack Obama ended during his first week in office, and defending a spy agency he has championed. Obama welcomed the release of the report, but in a written statement made sure to praise the CIA employees as “patriots” to whom “we owe a profound debt of gratitude” for trying to protect the country. But in a later television interview, he reiterated that the techniques “constituted torture in my mind” and were a betrayal of American values. “What’s clear is that the CIA set up something very fast without a lot of forethought to what the ramifications might be,” he told Telemundo, adding: “Some of these techniques that were described were not only wrong, but also counterproductive because we know that oftentimes when somebody is being subjected to these kinds of techniques, that they’re willing to say anything in order to alleviate the pain.” Obama’s predecessor, President George W. Bush, said repeatedly that the detention and interrogation program was humane and legal. The intelligence gleaned during interrogations, he said, was instrumental both in thwarting terrorism plots and in capturing senior figures of al-Qaida. Bush, former Vice President Dick Cheney and a number of former CIA officials have said more recently that the program was essential for ultimately finding Osama bin Laden, who was killed by members of the Navy SEALs in May 2011 in Abbottabad, Pakistan. The Intelligence Committee’s report tries to refute each of these claims, using the CIA’s internal records to present 20 case studies that bolster its conclusion that the most extreme interrogation methods played no role in disrupting terrorism plots, capturing terrorist leaders, or even finding bin Laden. The report said that senior officials — including former CIA directors George J. Tenet, Porter J. Goss and Michael V. Hayden — repeatedly inflated the value of the program in secret briefings both at the White House and on Capitol Hill, and in public speeches. In a speech in the Senate, moments after the report was released Tuesday morning, Feinstein described the tumultuous history of her investiga-

"These techniques did significant damage to America's standing in the world and made it harder to pursue our interests with allies and partners." President Barack Obama "This nation should never again engage in these tactics. ... The CIA program was far more brutal than people were led to believe." Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee "I don't believe that any other nation would go to the lengths the United States does to bare its soul, admit mistakes when they are made and learn from those mistakes.” James Clapper, director of national intelligence "This question isn't about our enemies. It's about us. It's about who we were, who we are and who we aspire to be. It's about how we represent ourselves to the world." Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona, who was tortured in a North Vietnamese prison during the Vietnam War "This marks a coda to a chapter in our history. ... It was right to end these practices for a simple but powerful reason: they were at odds with our values. They are not who we are, and they're not who or what we had to become, because the most powerful country on earth doesn't have to choose between protecting our security and promoting our values." Secretary of State John Kerry “This closed the book on the Bush Administration’s interrogation program. But make no mistake. These weren’t just ‘enhanced interrogations.’ This was torture. ... Today marks an enormous, if painful step in the right direction.” Sen. Martin Heinrich, D-N.M., a member of the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence “The Senate investigators’ report documents the use of brutal interrogation techniques that I believe constitute torture and violate U.S. and international law. In the wake of the 9/11 attacks, we compromised the values that make our nation great. This report underscores that torture is not only brutal and inhumane, it so often produces unreliable intelligence that it is also ineffective.” Sen. Tom Udall, D-N.M. “Torture is an affront to our American values. The CIA’s efforts to mislead and conceal the full nature of their actions were deplorable. The Senate Intelligence Committee report is an important step toward understanding and rectifying the mistakes that were made during this period in our nation’s history. We must ensure that this is never allowed to happen again.” Rep. Ben Ray Luján, D-N.M. "The techniques in question are nowhere near what the enemies of this nation and radical Islam would do to people under their control. There is no comparison. The comparison is between who we are and what we want to be. In that regard, we made a mistake." Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina "The report raises serious concerns about the CIA's management of this detention and interrogation program and the treatment of certain detainees. Torture is wrong and fundamentally contrary to American values." Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee "It is impossible to read it without feeling immense outrage that our government engaged in these terrible crimes." Anthony Romero, executive director of the ACLU, who called for a special prosecutor to "hold the architects and perpetrators of the torture program accountable."

tion and called the CIA interrogation program “a stain on our values and our history.” She said, “History will judge us by our commitment to a just society governed by law and the willingness to face an ugly truth and say ‘never again.’” As she was preparing to speak, John O. Brennan, the CIA director, issued a response that both acknowledged mistakes and angrily challenged some of the findings of the Senate report as an “incomplete and selective picture of what occurred.” “As an agency, we have learned from these mistakes, which is why my predecessors and I have implemented various remedial measures over the years to address institutional deficiencies,” Brennan said. But despite the mistakes, he added, “the record does not support the study’s inference that the agency systematically and intentionally misled each of these audiences on the effectiveness of the program.” The report is more than 6,000 pages long, but the committee voted in April to declassify only its 524-page executive summary and a rebuttal by Republican members of the committee. The investigation was conducted by the committee’s Democratic majority and their staffs. Many of the CIA’s most extreme interrogation methods, including waterboarding, were authorized by Justice Department lawyers during the Bush administration. But the report also found evidence that a number of detainees had been subjected to other, unapproved methods while in CIA custody. The torture of prisoners at times was so extreme that some CIA personnel tried to put a halt to the techniques, but were told by senior agency officials to continue the interrogation sessions.

The Senate report quotes a series of August 2002 cables from a CIA facility in Thailand, where the agency’s first prisoner was held. Within days of the Justice Department’s approval to begin waterboarding the prisoner, Abu Zubaydah, the sessions became so extreme that some CIA officers were “to the point of tears and choking up,” and several said they would elect to be transferred out of the facility if the brutal interrogations continued. During one waterboarding session, Zubaydah became “completely unresponsive with bubbles rising through his open, full mouth.” The interrogations lasted for weeks, and some CIA officers began sending messages to the agency’s headquarters in Virginia questioning the utility — and the legality — of what they were doing. But such questions were rejected. “Strongly urge that any speculative language as to the legality of given activities or, more precisely, judgment calls as to their legality vis-à-vis operational guidelines for this activity agreed upon and vetted at the most senior levels of the agency, be refrained from in written traffic (email or cable traffic),” wrote Jose A. Rodriguez Jr., then the head of the CIA’s Counterterrorism Center. “Such language is not helpful.” The Senate report found that the detention and interrogation of Zubaydah and dozens of other prisoners were ineffective in giving the government “unique” intelligence information that the CIA or other intelligence agencies could not get from other means. The report also said that the CIA’s leadership for years gave false information about the total number of prisoners held by the CIA, saying there had been 98 prisoners when CIA records showed that 119 men had been held.

In late 2008, according to one internal email, a CIA official giving a briefing expressed concern about the discrepancy and was told by Hayden, then the agency’s director, “to keep the number at 98” and not to count any additional detainees. The committee’s report concluded that of the 119 detainees, “at least 26 were wrongfully held.” It said, “These included an ‘intellectually challenged’ man whose CIA detention was used solely as leverage to get a family member to provide information, two individuals who were intelligence sources for foreign liaison services and were former CIA sources, and two individuals whom the CIA assessed to be connected to al-Qaida based solely on information fabricated by a CIA detainee subjected to the CIA’s enhanced interrogation techniques.” Many Republicans have said that the report is an attempt to smear both the CIA and the Bush White House, and that the report cherry-picked information to support a claim that the CIA’s detention program yielded no valuable information. Former CIA officials have already begun a vigorous public campaign to dispute the report’s findings. In its response to the Senate report, the CIA said that to accept the committee’s conclusions, “there would have had to have been a yearslong conspiracy among CIA leaders at all levels, supported by a large number of analysts and other line officers.” According to the Senate report, even before the agency captured its first prisoner, CIA lawyers began thinking about how to get approval for interrogation methods that might normally be considered torture. Such methods might gain wider approval, the lawyers figured, if they were shown to save lives. “A policy decision must be made with regard to U.S. use of torture,” CIA lawyers wrote in November 2001, in a previously undisclosed memo titled “Hostile Interrogations: Legal Considerations for CIA Officers.” The lawyers argued that “states may be very unwilling to call the U.S. to task for torture when it resulted in saving thousands of lives.” The report describes repeated efforts by the CIA to make that case, even when the facts did not support it. For example, the CIA helped edit a speech by Bush in 2006 to make it seem as if key intelligence was obtained through the most brutal interrogation tactics, even when CIA records suggested otherwise. After the CIA transported Abu Zubaydah to Thailand in 2002, two CIA contractors, James E. Mitchell and Bruce Jessen, were in charge of the interrogation sessions, using methods that had been authorized by Justice Department lawyers. The two contractors, both psychologists, are identified in the Senate report under the pseudonyms Grayson Swigert and Hammond Dunbar. The program expanded, with dozens of detainees taken to secret prisons in Poland, Romania, Lithuania and other countries. In September 2006, Bush ordered all of the detainees in CIA custody to be transferred to the prison at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, and after that the CIA held a small number of detainees in secret at a different facility for several months at a time, before they were also moved to Guantánamo Bay. Taken in its entirety, the report is a portrait of a spy agency that was wholly unprepared for its new mission as jailers and interrogators, but that embraced its assignment with vigor. The report chronicles millions of dollars in secret payments between 2002 and 2004 from the CIA to foreign officials, aimed at getting other governments to agree to host secret prisons.

CIA’s claims compared to what committee found The New York Times

Thwarting of Karachi plots

A report by the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence describes a years long CIA effort to justify its harsh interrogation tactics. Even before the agency interrogated anyone, the CIA’s lawyers wrote in a November 2001 memo that it would be easier to defend against torture allegations if the tactics saved lives. Here are eight cases cited in the report where the CIA made the case that its tactics thwarted plots and led to the capture of terrorists, and how the committee’s report undercut those accounts.

The case: President George W. Bush credited the CIA interrogation program with helping to prevent an attack on the U.S. Consulate in Karachi, Pakistan. Committee’s conclusion: But according to the committee report, the CIA already knew that information. Baluchi and bin Attash had provided it weeks earlier to Pakistani officials, who then relayed it to the CIA. So when the intelligence report on the Karachi plot was issued, CIA officials in Pakistan were nonplussed. They issued a cable saying they “had become aware of most of this reporting” already.

Killing of Osama bin Laden

Thwarting ‘second wave’

The case: No counterterrorism mission was more successful or higher profile than the secret raid that killed Osama bin Laden in 2011. Almost immediately, CIA officials began telling Congress that its interrogation program led them to a secretive courier, Abu Ahmed al-Kuwaiti, who in turn led the CIA to the doorstep of the world’s mostwanted terrorist. Committee’s conclusion: But in page after page of previously classified evidence, the committee calls those statements inaccurate.

Identification, capture and arrest of Iyman Faris The case: In 2003, the Justice Department charged an Ohio truck driver, Iyman Faris, in an al-Qaida plot to destroy the Brooklyn Bridge by cutting its suspension cables. Committee’s conclusion: The committee report revealed that it was actually a court-approved wiretap of another American, Majid Khan, that prompted the FBI investigation into Faris.

Thwarting of the Heathrow Airport, Canary Wharf plot

The case: After the Sept. 11 attacks, Mohammed hoped to use hijacked airplanes to attack Heathrow Airport and The case: In 2006, the White House Canary Wharf, a business district in announced that the Sept. 11, 2001, London.

But the committee report revealed that the CIA learned about the Capture of Ramzi bin al-Shibh plot in January 2002 with the arrest of The case: The Bush administration Masran bin Arshad, a Malaysian national who was involved. said that the capture of Abu Zubaydah

and his subsequent interrogation, which included waterboarding, led to the capture of bin al-Shibh, another senior alQaida operative. Committee’s conclusion: The committee report found no evidence of that.

Capture of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed The case: Bush credited the interrogation of Abu Zubaydah and bin al-Shibh with providing “information that helped in the planning and execution of the operation that captured Khalid Shaikh Mohammed.” Committee’s conclusion: But CIA documents show that Mohammed was a suspect in the Sept. 11 attacks.

Capture of José Padilla The case: José Padilla, who was accused of plotting a radiological dirty bomb attack inside the United States, was one of the first American citizens designated an “enemy combatant.” Committee’s conclusion: But Abu Zubaydah’s information on Padilla was sketchy, and he provided it well before he was waterboarded. Padilla, in fact, was arrested in May 2002, three months before the CIA interrogation program began.

U.S.: China gleefully highlights losses to American credibility Continued from Page A-1 in the hands of American adversaries.” Even before the report’s official release Tuesday, China’s state-run media was gleefully pointing to the findings as a sign of lost American credibility. “America is neither a suitable role model nor a qualified judge on human rights issues in other countries,” read an editorial in the state-run Xinhua news service. “Yet, despite this, people rarely hear the U.S. talking about its own problems, preferring to be vocal on the issues it sees in other countries, including China.” In Egypt, a pro-government television commentator struck a similar theme. “The United States cannot demand human rights reports from other countries since this [document] proves they know nothing about human rights,” Tamer Amin said on a private network. The release of the U.S. report comes at a time when American standing in the world has already been badly harmed by an array of factors, including revelations about warrantless wiretapping and drone warfare, and extensive coverage of racial unrest at home. The graphic nature of the report’s findings could resonate overseas in a way that other disclosures have not. Parakilas said many of the details were likely to be par-

group Reprieve. British Prime Minister David Cameron was among the first world leaders to react to the Senate report, saying “after 9/11 there were things that happened that were wrong and we should be clear about the fact that they were wrong.” There was also mild praise for the U.S. government for at least coming clean. Writing for the center-right German daily paper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, commentator Nikolas Buss said publication of the report was the right

thing to do. “Only by taking steps like this will the USA, a country that considers itself a more moral world power, be able to regain the trust that the Bush administration recklessly gambled away,” he wrote. But rights advocates worldwide also called for the U.S. government to go further in not only exposing abuses but also providing accountability. In a statement from Geneva, the United Nations special rapporteur on human rights and counter-terrorism, Ben Emmerson, called for prosecution of

Bush administration officials who ordered detainees to be tortured. “As a matter of international law, the U.S. is legally obliged to bring those responsible to justice,” Emmerson said. One former prisoner, meanwhile, said even an apology would be welcome. “Lives of victims and their families, including mine, have been turned upside down,” said Moazzam Begg, a former Guantanamo Bay detainee and current outreach director for the prisoner advocacy organization CAGE.

ticularly uncomfortable for U.S. allies, and could inhibit future cooperation at a moment when Washington and other Western capitals are deeply unnerved by the rise of the Islamic State. “There will be more restrictions in terms of intelligence sharing and operational secrecy,” he said. The report could, however, put pressure on U.S. allies to be more transparent about their own involvement in the American programs. A study last year by the Open Society Foundation found that 54 countries cooperated in the so-called rendition program, which involved secretly transporting suspects to countries that routinely prac-

tice torture. Britain was among the most important, providing key intelligence and logistical support. The government has promised a thorough investigation of its own involvement, but it has been repeatedly delayed. “The U.K.’s behind the curve in terms of examining” their behavior, said Donald Campbell, spokesman for the Londonbased human rights advocacy

Republicans are expected to try and use the expiration as leverage to force Obama to roll back a decision that will suspend the threat of deportation for an estimated 4 million immigrants living in the country illegally. Some conservative lawmakers demanded a change in the spending measure to deny the use of federal funds to carry out the president’s new policy. The leadership ruled otherwise, gambling that even with conservative defections, enough bipar-

tisan support existed for the bill to assure its passage. Earlier in the day, House Republicans removed one obstacle to passage of the spending measure by announcing they would pass legislation separately to renew a requirement for the federal government to assume some of the insurance risk in losses arising from terrorism. In talks with Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., Republicans led by Rep. Jeb Hensarling, R-Texas, agreed to the renewal, but said they wanted to roll back portions of the 2010 DoddFrank law that tightened regulation on the financial sector. The stand-alone bill seemed likely to clear the House, but its

fate in the Senate was uncertain. The pension-related talks between Rep. John Kline, R-Minn., and George Miller, D-Calif., were designed to preserve benefits of current and future retirees at lower levels than currently exist, but higher than they would be if their pension funds ran out of money. “We have a plan here that first and foremost works for the members of the unions, the workers in these companies and it works for the companies,” said Miller, retiring at year’s end after four decades in Congress. The AARP, which claims to represent millions of retirement-age Americans, attacked the agreement as a “secret, lastminute closed door deal.”

COMMENTARY: DAVID SWERDLICK

Bad rationalizations for Garner’s killing

nlike the recent shootings by police of Michael Brown, John Crawford and Tamir Rice, there’s something — the video — about the killing of Eric Garner by New York City police Officer Daniel Pantaleo that has folks on both sides of the political aisle criticizing the Staten Island grand jury’s decision not to indict. Conservative mainstays such as Washington Post columnist Charles Krauthammer said last week, for instance, that “from looking at the grand jury’s decision here, it’s totally incomprehensible.” Or even former President George W. Bush, who called the decision “hard to understand.” But there are a lot of conservatives still rationalizing and caveating away the naked injustice of the case with near-excuses about the circumstances of Garner’s death: Garner shouldn’t have resisted arrest; Garner had a criminal record; the police sergeant at the scene was a black woman. And? I don’t consider what Garner was doing “resisting.” Saying, “I’m minding my business, please just leave me alone” — which Garner said shortly before Pantaleo jumped him — doesn’t sound to me like resisting; it sounds like a tea party slogan. But even if you do think he was resisting — which is how police will always see it — no one can watch that video and reasonably conclude that Garner was threatening physical harm, in any way, toward any of the officers trying to arrest him. Conservatives aren’t the only ones making these “arguments,” but you’re hearing these talking points loudest on the right. Here are three of the worst: The chokehold wasn’t “illegal.” Yes, it was. On Wednesday night, cable news king Bill O’Reilly went out of his way

T to emphasize several times that Pantaleo’s “chokehold was not illegal; it’s against department policy” — a distinction without a difference if there ever was one. Baseball bats aren’t illegal, but it’s still illegal to kill someone with a baseball bat, unless it’s in self-defense. The point about the chokehold isn’t that it hasn’t been specifically banned by statute in the state of New York. It’s the fact that if it’s not authorized as a legitimate policing technique, then Pantaleo had no more legal right to choke Garner to death than a civilian does. This was about a big-government cigarette tax. Fox News’ Greg Guttfeld said Thursday that the issue in this case isn’t “cops vs. blacks but government vs. citizens. The nanny state crushing the individual.” A sentiment echoed by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who told MSNBC’s Chris Matthews that “the individual circumstances are important, but I think it’s also important to know that some

politician put a tax of $5.85 on a pack of cigarettes,” adding, “For someone to die over breaking that law, there really is no excuse for it,” but “I do blame the politicians. We put our police in a difficult situation with bad laws.” I happen to agree that New York City’s cigarette tax, and the police department directive to aggressively prohibit the sale of loose cigarettes, is big government run amok. But there’s no NYPD directive I’m aware of that states that violators of the loosie law should be taken into custody at all costs, up to and including choking a man to death just because he’s suspected of selling them. Rather than trying to take Garner into custody with brutal — and ultimately deadly — force, the officers at the scene could easily have issued him a citation or summons. If it’s as ludicrous a crime as conservatives say it is (and it is), and that’s all Garner was charged with, then there was no need to take him into custody.

Write him a ticket and move on. Don’t kill him. Eric Garner was “huge.” We keep hearing references to Garner being 300, 350 or even 400 pounds — as Breitbart’s Ben Shapiro made sure to point out at the outset of his breakdown of the case. But what of it? People — including Garner and Pantaleo — come in all shapes and sizes. And part of a police officer’s job, or any public servant’s job, is that you have to take people as you find them. There’s no justification for singling out an unarmed man — who’s not being violent or threatening violence — for violent treatment, just because he’s big. If you’re a cop and you can’t handle the fact that you’re eventually going to interact with a guy who’s bigger than you, then you shouldn’t be a cop.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Don’t condone all police officers’ actions

o, Diane Polaco says we should support our police (“Support police,” Letters to the editor, Dec. 3) because we need them. Without any question as to whether a police officer commits unjustifiable homicide. Without any question as to whether a police officer uses excessive or deadly force. Without regard to whether a police officer racially profiles people because they are black, Hispanic or Muslim. Without regard to whether a homeless person posed any actual threat to a police officer. Without any regard to whether a prosecutor violated his or her ethical duty as a prosecutor for the State rather than being a shill to protect questionable police activity. In short, my police officer right or wrong. What’s wrong with this picture? Richard Shapiro

his election just won’t end. Whether a recount that needs to be completed or a district judge who just won’t go, a few loose ends must be wrapped up. Voters are still waiting to see the results of a recount in the statewide race for state land commissioner — Republican Aubrey Dunn has a 704 vote lead over incumbent Democrat Ray Powell, so close that under state law, a recount is mandated. There’s no debate about that, although Dunn has seized the moment to send out alarmist emails asking for money so that the Democrats can’t steal the election. It’s a shame that Republicans have used this recount as an opportunity to further demonize his opponent specifically and Democrats in general. No one is trying to steal the election. There’s not a 2,000-vote margin, as the GOP stated in its email; the margin is 704 votes, and any losing candidate in a race this close wants every vote counted. There also aren’t 40 attorneys working for Powell, either, but at least that exaggeration is somewhat humorous. Dunn’s own blogging about the recount shows a sad appeal to anti-immigrant sentiment. He writes about a potential Supreme Court decision, “If the Justices agree with Powell, the ballots from 873 people who say they registered at [Motor Vehicle Division] offices will be counted. In a state that gives driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants, I find that concerning. And those votes would change the entire outcome of the race.” Likely not, since there’s no telling how many of those voters chose Dunn. The recount isn’t the only delay in declaring an end to the election, either. There’s also a District Court judge retention election that must be resolved, since the losing judge won’t step down. Judge Sheri Raphaelson didn’t win enough votes to be retained in the November election. Rather than accept the will of the people, she’s filed a suit claiming that her race should not have been on the ballot at all. She was appointed to a six-year term, then won an election, and by her figuring, should be able to serve out her term. Had Raphaelson really believed 2014 wasn’t the year for her retention vote, though, she wouldn’t have filed for retention in the first place; other judges also have stood for retention elections midterm. Her situation is not unusual, except for losing the vote. Raphaelson, who primarily deals with cases in Rio Arriba County, needs to move on so that the governor can appoint a new judge. The fight should be over soon, with a Supreme Court hearing on the matter next week. As for the land commissioner’s race, it appears that the State Canvassing Board is striking a balance in how it approaches the recount. Its members had suggested checking 100 ballots a county to ensure the tabulations are accurate before the complete recount begins. Powell filed suit, pointing out that in large counties, 100 ballots does not reach the 2 percent margin he believes state law requires. The agreement would allow 2 percent or 100 ballots, whichever figure is higher, enough to ensure an accurate count. Seven hundred votes is a lot to make up, even out of 500,000 cast, but obviously it’s essential to make sure every vote is counted properly. Next week, with the Supreme Court decision on the District Court seat and a final count in the land commissioner’s race, the election truly could be over. That would a Christmas miracle.

Timeline of CIA prisons The Washington Post In the aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, the CIA established secret prisons to hold detainees and to allow for the use of “enhanced” interrogation methods. President Barack Obama, upon taking office, ordered an end to both initiatives. Almost 13 years after the programs started, the Senate Intelligence Committee released a report on the CIA’s actions. Sept. 17, 2001: Aftermath of the 9/11 attacks: President George W. Bush authorizes the CIA to capture, detain and question al-Qaida suspects.

Jan. 23, 2004: Hassan Ghul, a key al-Qaida courier, is captured in Iraq and taken to a CIA black site in Romania, where he provides information that helps lead to the killing of Osama bin Laden. May 7, 2004: The CIA’s Inspector General Report on interrogation is completed; it is not released until August 2009. Dec. 30, 2004: Justice Department Assistant Attorney General Daniel Levin receives a background paper from the CIA detailing the interrogation techniques. Nov. 2, 2005: The Washington Post reveals that the CIA has been holding prisoners in secret detention sites in Eastern Europe. November 2005: CIA official Jose Rodriguez orders videotaped interrogations of Abu Zubaida and al-Nashiri to be destroyed. Sept. 6, 2006: Bush announces that the CIA’s secret prisons have been emptied and that 14 high-value detainees have been transferred to the detention facility at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. At the same time, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence releases the names of 14 prisoners held in CIA secret prisons.

July 20, 2007: Bush issues an executive order allowing the CIA to continue its use of some enhanced interrogation methods, but not waterboarding. February 2008: CIA Director Michael Hayden testifies before the Senate Intelligence Committee, saying that fewer than 100 people have been in CIA secret custody since Sept. 11, 2001, and that only three detainees were waterboarded.

March 2009: The Senate Intelligence Committee begins its investigation of the CIA interrogation program. August 2009: Attorney General Eric Holder names longtime prosecutor John Durham to lead a review of nearly a dozen cases of alleged detainee mistreatment by CIA interrogators and contractors. In November 2010, Durham declines to file criminal charges against CIA officials for the destruction of the videotapes depicting CIA interrogations of high-value detainees. May 2, 2011: Bin Laden is killed by a Navy SEAL team in Abbottabad, Pakistan. January 2012: The Senate Intelligence Committee completes its report on the CIA’s interrogation program.

she said history would judge the nation by its “commitment to a just society governed by law and the willingness to face an ugly truth and say, ‘Never again.’” Top Republicans described the report as a politically charged Democratic document that distorted events, contending that the intelligence obtained through the harsh tactics had helped in the disruption of terrorism plots and in the search for Osama bin Laden, who was killed in a Navy SEAL raid in Pakistan in 2011. They also said that Senate Democrats, and Feinstein in particular, would be responsible if there was any violent backlash. “She will have to live with the consequences,” said Sen. Richard M. Burr, R-N.C., who will be the chairman of the Intelligence Committee next year. But at least one Republican was on her side. Sen.

As he walked off the floor, Feinstein called out to him, walked over to his desk and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

responses from his colleagues in other states on the eve of a Las Vegas, Nev., meeting of water managers. The managers, from seven states, are working on ways to ensure 40 million people in the parched Colorado River basin don’t go thirsty. “California has not sought any Colorado River water beyond its entitlement and has no intention of doing so,” said Jeff Kightlinger, general manager of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California. He referred to the Colorado River Compact of 1922 that covers water allocations to Colorado, California, New Mexico, Wyoming, Utah, Arizona and Nevada. “Arizona has the same interest” as Colorado in ensuring its supply is protected, said Michael J. Lacey, director of the Arizona Department of Water Resources. “I am not sure we will express it as pointedly as that,” Lacey said of Eklund’s remarks. With drought making cooperation more important, members of the Colorado River Water Users Association deny there’s discord at their table. The Colorado plan is being submitted to Gov. John Hickenlooper on Wednesday. A final version is expected in late 2015 and will propose legislation. Nearly 4.6 trillion gallons of water originates in Colorado every year, mostly from prodigious snowstorms high in the Rockies. Two-thirds of it belongs to users in downstream states, including California, under a collection of interstate agreements and court rulings. The other third is available to Colorado users under a system of water rights, which are considered property that can be bought and sold. Colorado suffered through its own devastating drought in

2002-03, an event that prompted the state to take a close look at how its water is distributed and how it could be used better. That process led to the new plan, which addresses several major issues. Colorado’s cities will need more water as the population grows from 5.5 million today to a projected 8 million to 9 million by 2050. Irrigated agricultural land is drying up at an alarming rate as cities buy out farmers to get their water. And the state’s key recreational economy and its environment need water in streams and lakes to survive. The 1922 compact and agreements with Mexico today promise about 16.5 million acre-feet of water annually from a river that has historically taken in about 15 million acre-feet from rainfall and snowmelt. That amount has diminished during drought. One acre-foot of water is about enough to serve two average households for a year. Colorado’s plan takes no position on one of the state’s most historically contentious issues: The century-old practice of

pumping water from west of the Continental Divide to the populous but drier eastern side. The 163 billion gallons shipped through the divide each year is a major source for the urban Front Range corridor, including Denver. It does say conservation and recycling should be considered before any more giant pipeline projects. “All of the easy projects, those that are anywhere near the Front Range, those are already built,” said Eric Kuhn, general manager of the Colorado River District, which guides Colorado River use in western Colorado. “My concern is we take a realistic look at the Colorado River as a new supply for the Front Range.” Jim Lochhead, CEO and manager of Denver Water, the state’s largest municipal utility, said new transmountain projects shouldn’t be ruled out. “It’s really going to have to be an all-of-the-above approach if we’re going to do that right,” he said.

cleanup at the lab is shifted from NNSA oversight to the Office of Environmental Management. LANS will keep the waste cleanup contract for at least 12 months in the interim while a new contract is sent out for bid. Coghlan and others think that besides paying a state fine, the incentive fees for LANS should be slashed at least by half because of the missteps that caused improper handling of radioactive waste before it was shipped to the storage facility near Carlsbad. Nuclear Watch and the nonprofit Project on Government Oversight sent a letter to the the Department of Energy urging the agency to cut the incentive pay “because of grossly substandard contractor performance.” Besides the container leak, the lab had to close a plutonium pit production facility in June 2013 because of safety issues. The facility has yet to fully reopen. “The Department of Energy’s cozy relationships with its contractors must end, given their repeated failures and massive cost overruns,” Coghlan said. “Substandard performance by the Los Alamos lab contractor is costing the taxpayer dearly. “DOE should consider booting Los Alamos National Security LLC for another contractor entirely,” he said.

Suit accuses insurance division of harassment Ex-investigator says he was threatened after reporting mismanagement and racism By Milan Simonich The New Mexican

A former fraud investigator in the state’s insurance division has filed a whistleblower lawsuit alleging he was the target of physical threats and retaliation because he reported corruption by co-workers. Andrew Herrera filed the

lawsuit this month in state District Court in Santa Fe. It names the Office of the Superintendent of Insurance and the state Public Regulation Commission as defendants. The commission formerly oversaw insurance regulation in New Mexico, but that office is now a stand-alone agency. Herrera says he reported

racism and “gross mismanagement” in the insurance division, only to be threatened with physical violence and termination from his job. He attached an email to his complaint in which he claims that an unspecified employee of the division sent an email likening first lady Michelle Obama to a chimpanzee. Herrera also alleges that Anglo employees in the fraud division called him a “beaner” and “a stupid Mexican.”

The staff attorney for the superintendent of insurance and the chief of staff of the Public Regulation Commission said Tuesday they had not been served with the lawsuit. Both declined to comment on it. Herrera no longer works in the Office of the Superintendent of Insurance. His lawsuit did not say why he is not employed there, and the staff attorney said he could not discuss personnel matters. Herrera’s own lawyer was traveling

Testimony centers on doctored roadwork records County attorney says firm failed to follow contract By Phaedra Haywood The New Mexican

Procurement codes, purchase orders and performance bonds were the focus in First District Court on Tuesday, the second day of testimony in the fraud trial for Advantage Asphalt and Seal Coating. Advantage co-owner Joe Anthony Montoya is accused of bribing Santa Fe County officials and falsifying records submitted to the county and to developers of the Rancho Viejo subdivision between 2008 and 2010, when his company received millions of dollars worth of work from the two entities. Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office Cpl. James Yeager, the lead investigator on the case, testified that he found what appeared to be doctored invoices in Montoya’s home and offices from soil sampling companies. Yeager said the records may have been altered before they were submitted to Rancho Viejo for payment. Yeager described the invoices in detail, saying paper flaps had been taped over project names and dates on the invoices, changing those details. He said white-out also had been used on the documents. In response to questioning by defense attorney Sam Bregman, Yeager admitted that he had no evidence that Montoya knew about changes to the invoices. But, Yeager said, as the majority owner of the company, Montoya was responsible.

Restrictions lifted at Rail Runner crossings New pedestrian gates, warning signs installed at intersections By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

or months, the New Mexico Rail Runner Express trains crawled through busy Santa Fe intersections because of Federal Railroad Administration safety restrictions that drew the ire of motorists stalled in traffic. But the Rio Metro Regional Transit District, the agency that runs the passenger trains, said Tuesday that those restrictions — implemented following two bicyclists’ deaths in as many months — have been lifted, thanks to new safety measures such as pedestrian gates and increased warning signs at crossings. “We wanted to make sure we were doing all we could in the way of making these crossings as safe as possible for those who use them,” said Rio Metro Regional Transit District Director Terry Boyle in a prepared statement. The agency announced that trains will return to traveling at normal speeds through the 14 crossings in Santa Fe. Additionally, Rio Metro no longer will station employees at key crossings to ensure pedestrians and bicyclists are aware of approaching trains. The Rio Metro agency, the New Mexico Department of Transportation and the Federal Railroad Administration spent four months analyzing crossings in the city following the deaths of Suzanne LeBeau, 60, and Joseph Salazar, 41, earlier this year.

In April, LeBeau was bicycling along Zia Road when she rode past warning lights and ringing bells and into the front of a moving train. She died at the scene. Less than two months later, Salazar, 41, rode a bicycle in front of a train as it entered the St. Michael’s Drive rail crossing. He, too, seemed oblivious to the existing warning signals, video of the accident showed. Both the state Transportation Department and the Rio Metro agency promised they would study the crossing and implement additional safety measures. Officials also slowed the trains at major crossings and introduced flaggers to warn of oncoming trains. The Transportation Department spent nearly $1 million in Federal Highway Administration funds on safety gates, flashing lights and other improvements. Crews also installed pedestrian/ bicyclist gates at the crossings on the city’s Rail Trail, such as one at the intersection of Zia Road and St. Francis Drive. Since LeBeau’s death, her family has been pushing the department and the city for safety upgrades. Her sister, Janet Bostelmann, said the family also had filed a tort claim notice of possible litigation against the involved agencies. But the family’s attorney, Kurt Sommer, said no litigation is pending. Contact Chris Quintana at 986-3093 or cquintana@sfnewmexican.com. Follow him on Twitter @CQuintanaSF.

The city’s #HowToSantaFe social media campaign didn’t #BreakTheInternet. But city officials say it exceeded their expectations, reaching 4.9 million people worldwide and generating 52.3 million views, according to a report released Tuesday. The campaign — rooted in the online photoand video-sharing service Instagram and expanded through Facebook and Twitter, all of which have hundreds of millions of users — was more just than a hashtag, which is a word or phrase preceded with the “#” symbol. It was an effort to market the city to a global audience, especially young professionals, whom Mayor Javier Gonzales and other city officials want to attract as Santa Fe’s population continues to grow older. “Santa Fe strikes an incredibly unique balance between tradition and opportunity, and this campaign was about updating our image with a younger audience on a national and international scale and promoting Santa Fe in a way that complements our arts culture,” Gonzales said Tuesday in a statement. “This campaign did it in a way that had never been tried before, by giving real Santa Feans a voice in defining their city, all while giving local businesses and professionals exposure, knowledge and job opportunities.” More than 10,700 photos with the #HowToSantaFe hashtag were posted on Instagram alone. Photos ranged from views atop Picacho Peak, a plate brimming with green chile cheese fries at the Cowgirl BBQ , aspens changing color, sunsets, a leopard print limousine, friends hanging out at Zozobra and dogs napping. The city’s Economic Development Division paid 12FPS, a creative agency with offices in San Francisco and Santa Fe, $47,000 for the campaign. “It was a win all around for economic development and tourism,” Kate Noble, interim director of the city’s Housing and Community Development Department, which includes economic development, said in a statement. The report states that the city received a $261,000 return on investment, but it doesn’t explain how the city came up with that figure. “In a study conducted by SumAll, a social media and data analytics firm, they found that the value of a single impression on Twitter is worth $0.005,” city spokesman Matt Ross said in an email. “That same study found that an Instagram follower is worth 10 times that of a Twitter follower, and that engagement and growth on Instagram is much greater than

Deal clears way for recount in state race Land Commissioner Powell to drop high court case The Associated Press

The recount in the race for New Mexico’s state land commissioner is a step closer to getting underway. The state Canvassing Board met Tuesday and signed off on an agreement that spells out how the recount will proceed. At issue was how many ballots would be used to test the tabulating machines that will be used in the recount. The agreement came after sev-

eral days of negotiations. Incumbent Democrat Ray Powell said Tuesday evening that his attorney was reviewing the agreement and he planned the drop his case before the state Supreme Court on Wednesday. That will clear the way for the recount to begin Thursday.

Main office: 983-3303 Late paper: 986-3010 News tips: 986-3035

“Our intention is to ensure an open and transparent process and that every vote is counted,” Powell said. The latest totals provided by the Secretary of State’s Office show Republican Aubrey Dunn leading Powell by several hundred votes, a margin so small it triggered an automatic recount under state law. The recount, which was scheduled to start Monday, was put on hold after Powell filed a petition over how the count was going to be conducted. This marks the first recount in a statewide race since New Mexico enacted a law in 2008 for automatic recounts when the margin between the top two candidates is

less than 0.5 percent. Rod Adair, a spokesman for the Secretary of State’s Office, said the agreement embodies the zero percent error rate the Canvassing Board has insisted is mandatory in recounting an election. Under the agreement, each county will use 100 ballots or 2 percent of the total ballots cast in that county, whichever is greater, to test the tabulators. More than 22,000 ballots statewide will be used to test tabulators before the count begins, Adair said. State elections officials have said they expect the process to take a couple of days. The Canvassing Board expects to meet next week to certify the election results.

country at least five years with U.S. citizen children to stay. But a still unknown number of immigrants are going to fall through the cracks, immigration attorneys say, because they can’t prove they’ve been here long enough, their children only grew up here but were not born in the United States, or they, like Hernandez, are already in the deportation queue. “Lines have to be drawn somewhere. There are always going to be people on the wrong side of the line,” Denver immigration attorney Mark Barr said. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said it will consider on a case-by-case basis people who, like Hernandez, would qualify for deportation relief under Obama’s program but are already in the process of being deported. They would not comment on Hernandez’s case, although officials have suggested that otherwise law-

abiding people like him would be low priorities for deportation. That’s not enough to ease Hernandez’s worries. Hernandez and his wife came to the United States on a legal visa with their 3-monthold daughter in 1999. They built a life in the suburbs around Denver, having a second girl who is a U.S. citizen. Hernandez worked at a construction firm, but in 2010, a co-worker complained that Hernandez assaulted him. Hernandez was arrested and found innocent after a trial, but not before immigration authorities were notified he was in the country illegally. Hernandez said he hoped he could hang on until Obama carried out his longstanding promise to fix the immigration system and let people like him stay. “They promised us for five or six years immigration reform and he is doing nothing,” Hernandez said. “Thousands of

people are deported every year.” In October, as Hernandez’s final deadline approached, he fled to the safety of a church, First Unitarian Society of Denver. Immigration policies don’t let agents enter a house of worship to deport someone unless they have committed a serious crime. Hernandez has been living in a basement room ever since. A poster entitled, in English, “My Family,” drawn by his youngest daughter hangs on the wall, emblazoned with hearts and stick figures representing Hernandez, his wife and two daughters. Three Democratic members of Colorado’s congressional delegation have asked immigration officials to back off while Hernandez appeals his case. They are asking federal authorities to at least wait until the Obama administration issues prosecutorial discretion guidelines that will take effect in January.

Segura, 27, of Albuquerque was arrested on suspicion of being in possession of a controlled substance at about 7 a.m. Monday at the intersection of Siler and Cerrillos roads. u A license plate was stolen off a 1999 Jeep Cherokee while it was parked in the 70 block of Camino de Jacobo between 10:30 p.m. Sunday and 6 a.m. Monday.

Funeral services and memorials PRISCILLA MCGILL CARR HAPPY BIRTHDAY GILBERT! Priscilla McGill Carr died peacefully on December 3, 2014 at the age of 94 with her family at her bedside. Priscilla (Prissy to her friends) was born in Hoquiam, Washington on April 13, 1920 to Frazer and Rose McGill. She moved with her parents in 1934 to Santa Fe, the place she called home for the next 80 years. During her school years, she formed friendships that lasted throughout her life. That pool of friendships continuously grew, and her family and these friends were the focus of her life. In 1951 Priscilla and her husband Stanley moved with their family to Kansas City so Stanley could finish his education. In 1957 he received his dental degree and they happily returned home to Santa Fe. In addition to raising three children, Priscilla was a longstanding member of the First Presbyterian Church, where she served as a deacon and an elder. She was active in the early years of the Santa Fe Opera Guild, finding housing for visiting opera singers; the Santa Fe Garden Club, serving as its president; and as a member of PEO, Chapter F, for over 50 years. In 2012 Priscilla was honored as a Santa Fe Living Treasure. In 1966, Priscilla began a career in state government. Her work included serving on the staff of the Legislative Finance Committee and as the longtime secretary to the House Appropriations Committee. She also worked in the office of the Clerk of the Supreme Court and for the State Board of Finance. Priscilla joined Governor King’s staff during his first term, and she continued to work in the Office of the Governor through the administrations of Governor King and Governors Apodaca, Anaya and Carruthers. She earned respect for her quiet confidence in all of these positions. Priscilla is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Bill and Lesly Carr; daughter, Jean Eddy; daughter and son-in-law, Carol and James McGiffin, grandchildren Brian Baker and fiance Cary Haynes, Mark Baker and wife Shana, David Carr and wife Zahira, Robert Carr, Margaret Weeks and husband Mark, Michael McGiffin, Peter Carr and wife Jessica, John McGiffin, and her great grandchildren, Aila Rose and Lily Carr, Joshua and Noah Baker, Teagan Weeks, Olivia and soon, Charlotte Carr. She was preceded in death by her parents, Frazer and Rose McGill, her husband Stanley E. Carr, and daughter Jean’s husband, Newt Eddy. A memorial service will be held at the First Presbyterian Church in Santa Fe at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, December 12, 2014, with a reception following the service in the Coronado and DeVargas rooms at the Santa Fe Convention Center. Contributions may be made in Priscilla’s name to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, 6100 Indian School NE, Suite 110, Albuquerque, NM 87110.

Albuquerque teacher quits after student writes Jesus pot story RIO RANCHO — A New Mexico high school teacher is out of a job after a student rewrote the biblical story about Jesus handing out bread and fish to the poor to Jesus handing out marijuana to the sick. KOAT-TV reports that former Cleveland High School creative writing teacher Katrina Guarascio says she recently quit after the district put her on administrative leave. The story was from an assignment to take a fairy tale or

legend and rewrite it in modern times According to Guarascio, a student got offended by the story and told her parents. Guarascio says she felt targeted and harassed. A Rio Rancho Schools spokeswoman says Guarascio was not forced to resign because of the students’ freedom of speech rights but chose to do so. The Associated Press

Martinez’s public swearingin was on the bandstand on the Santa Fe Plaza. The temperature was in the low single digits. This year, a public reception in the Capitol Rotunda will follow the swearing-in. The ball will feature the country band Lonestar. The chairwoman of the event is Maria Berry, wife of Albuquerque Mayor Richard Berry. Before New Year’s Day, Martinez will attend a preinauguration Governor’s Gala in Martinez’s hometown of Las Cruces on Sunday, Dec. 28. That will be held at the Pan American Center, the multipurpose arena on the New Mexico State University campus. In 2010, Martinez held a similar event in Las Cruces before her inauguration. She also plans to attend Mass

This came from donations from corporations and individuals. A Martinez spokesman said contributions were capped at $25,000. The inauguration had more than $105,000 in funds left over that year. That money was donated to safe houses for abused and neglected children in the state. More information on the inauguration can be found at http://martinezinaugural.com.

Voter ID measure approved in Hobbs The Associated Press

HOBBS — Residents in a Southeastern New Mexico city have approved a measure that will require people to present a photo ID to vote in municipal elections. The proposal, which amends the city charter in Hobbs, passed with 78 percent of the vote in Tuesday’s special election. About 1,300 people cast ballots in the city of about 33,000.

The amendment says that if voters don’t have identification, the city will provide it free of charge. The oil-boom town is the latest battleground over requiring strict identification to cast ballots. Supporters say the measure would help eliminate potential in-person voter impersonation and increase public confidence in elections. Civil rights groups argue that

In Brief Staff says city should drop free shuttle The city Transportation Department is recommending that the City Council end a free weekend shuttle service that was aimed at bringing more college students downtown. At the urging of Mayor Javier Gonzales, the city launched a pilot project in September to provide free rides between the Santa Fe University of Art and Design and downtown from 6 to 11 p.m. Thursday through Saturday. The shuttle service, which is available to the general public, was proposed by Gonzales as a way to boost business and connect a younger crowd with the heart of the city. The council on Wednesday is scheduled to consider the department’s recommendation to halt the service Dec. 20. While the service provided 399 rides from Sept. 18 to Nov. 22, there were nine days when the shuttle had no passengers at all and some days when there were only

voter ID measures disproportionately affect blacks, Latinos, senior citizens and the poor by unduly restricting voting and imposing unnecessary costs. The election comes on the heels of a record-low turnout in Lea County for November’s midterm elections. Albuquerque and Rio Rancho, two of the biggest cities in the state, already require photo ID for local elections. Previous efforts to get a statewide law

one or two riders. “Although the pilot project had a relatively good response from the SFUAD students early in the semester, that trend was not sustained as the weeks progressed,” Jon Bulthuis, Transportation Department director, wrote in a memo to the City Council. “As such, staff recommends that the pilot project end, as scheduled on December 20, 2014, without renewal in future semesters.”

Police seek pair in theft of ring from shop Santa Fe police said Tuesday that they are searching for a man and a woman who were seen on surveillance video stealing a $34,195 turquoise-and-gold diamond ring from a downtown shop Nov. 23. The video from Santa Fe Goldworks, 60 East San Francisco St., shows the two suspects enter the store, where the woman asks to try on a necklace in a display case. Police said the woman then appeared to distract the employee while the man reached into the display case and slipped the ring into his pocket. Police said the woman appeared to be in

In recent years, 34 states have passed laws requiring voters to show some form of identification at the polls, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. Recently re-elected Secretary of State Dianna Duran said she’ll again push state lawmakers to consider a voter ID law. She called the special election in Hobbs “encouraging.”

Police described the man as having short, dark hair and wearing a black-and-gray puffy jacket, blue jeans and gray-and-black running shoes. Police also said he was carrying a satchel. A news release said the ring is inlaid with “Sleeping Beauty” and “Spider Web” turquoise in a triangle pattern. It has a small row of diamonds bordering both sides of the turquoise and has a solitaire diamond in the middle.

White Sox making moves at winter meetings

Panthers’ Newton suffers back fractures in crash

By Ronald Blum The Associated Press

SAN DIEGO — The Chicago White Sox are making the biggest moves at the winter meetings, trying to regain relevance in the AL Central after losing 188 games over two seasons. Hours after reaching a $46 million, four-year deal with closer David Robertson, Chicago acquired starting pitcher Jeff Samardzija from the Oakland Athletics as part of a six-player trade. “In our mind we’re not finished yet,” White Sox general manager Rick Hahn said Tuesday. “We still know we have some other areas we need to improve and we’re hopeful that in the coming days, and if not the coming days, then the coming weeks, we’ll be able to fill a couple more voids in our roster.” While Jon Lester’s talks on the free-agent market still seemed to be creating a logjam for other starting pitchers, the Chicago teams were busy in the trade mart. In the day’s other significant swap, the Arizona Diamondbacks sent AllStar catcher Miguel Montero, who is owed $40 million over the next three seasons, to the Chicago Cubs for a pair of prospects. Coming off consecutive playoff appearances that followed a 20-year drought, the Pittsburgh Pirates agreed to a $39 million, three-year deal to keep left-hander Francisco Liriano. And Atlanta agreed to a oneyear deal with free-agent infielder Alberto Callaspo. The deals for Robertson, Liriano and Callaspo were disclosed by people familiar with the negotiations who spoke on condition of anonymity because they had not been announced. Lester has been sought by Boston, the Cubs, the Los Angeles Dodgers and the World Series champion San Francisco Giants, who were dropped from consideration Tuesday. “If it happens tomorrow, it hap-

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Panthers quarterback Cam Newton suffered fractures to his lower back in a twocar crash Tuesday and will have spend the night in the hospital, a team spokesman said Tuesday. Newton was in fair condition, had no other internal injuries and would not need surgery, team spokesman Charlie Dayton said during a news

conference outside a Charlotte hospital. It was unclear if Newton would be able to practice or play Sunday against the Buccaneers, Dayton said. “Right now we have thought about Cam’s well-being and we understand there was someone else in the other car who was injured,” Dayton said. “We just hope that they’re all OK.” He was expected to be released from the hospital on Wednesday after

Dons doom Prep Bustos, Valdez critical in holding off late rally By James Barron The New Mexican

ocus on D.J. Bustos, and get burned by Adrian Valdez. Bustos might be the headline act for the West Las Vegas Dons, but that doesn’t mean they hang on every flick of the 6-foot-3 wing’s wrist. So when Bustos left the basketball court in Prep Gymnasium with an elbow stinger midway through the fourth quarter, with the Dons holding a slim 54-51 lead, there was no need to panic. Valdez, a 5-6 guard, did his best impression, and his pair of 3-pointers staved off a Santa Fe Prep rally and secured a 5-0 start to the boys basketball season with a 66-58 win on Tuesday night. And in a battle of big men — Bustos and senior Andres Gallegos versus the Blue Griffins’ Ian Anderson (6-6) and 6-4 Ben Perillo — it was the little man who came up big. “We expect that from Adrian,” said David Bustos, West Las Vegas head coach and D.J.’s father. “He’s a kid who practices hard, plays hard and plays with a lot of confidence. I am just glad to see someone like him come in and do what he did for us.” The buckets came at a crucial moment. Prep, which had trailed

By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press

NEW YORK — NCAA President Mark Emmert said Tuesday that it was troubling to see the University of Alabama-Birmingham drop its football program, but he believes Olympic sports are more vulnerable to cuts as schools look at athletic budgets. In an interview with The Associated Press, Emmert said he worries that Mark while autonomy for Emmert the Big Five conferences will lead to more money being spent on athletes it could decrease the overall number of opportunities in college sports for students. UAB dropped its football program last week. The school cited rising costs of college athletics, including pressure to pay the full cost of attendance for athletes. That proposal was supported by Emmert and pushed by the wealthiest conferences. “I think it’s really hard and hard

base as Hope to use to its advantage, West Las Vegas has gone back in time. Bustos presided over one of the more successful eras for West Las Vegas basketball — the early 2000s — and the Dons were always on the cusp of greatness. Only, back then it was St. Michael’s that always seemed to stand in their way. Now, it’s the Huskies. West Las Vegas has the best player in AAAA — Yes, let’s call it now because it’s not going to change any time soon —in D.J. Bustos, David’s son. But the Dons also have size, depth and boatloads of talent this year. On paper, they are nipping on the Huskies’ heels. But for the next three months, West Las Vegas has to run itself through the gauntlet to prove it is a worthy challenger. The Dons should get a shot at Hope at its own tournament in January, and that will set

the tone for what happens the rest of the year. If they can play with the Huskies, the rest of the North — and AAAA for that matter — will salivate at the thought that Hope can be beaten. But if West Las Vegas falls like it did in last year’s semifinal to the Huskies, then everybody wipe off your whiteboards and start figuring out another way to beat “the Evil Empire.” The key will come down to discipline. Hope will send waves of similarly skilled players at you, intending to simply wear you out and take advantage of that eight-point run that can turn into 20 if an opponent mentally breaks down. Can West Las Vegas — or any team in the state — weather that storm? If the Dons can, they have a shot. Maybe then, everyone will ease up on Hope Christian. Nah, probably not.

PREP ROUNDUP

Depleted Desert Academy beats Waldorf The New Mexican

Desert Academy is facing some tough times, but it still managed to get a win on Tuesday. Despite season-ending injuries to an already young team, D. Academy 37 the Lady Wildcats pulled out a 37-28 nonS.F. Waldorf 28 district girls basketball win over Santa Fe Waldorf in Christian Life Academy. Desert Academy (4-4) did this despite not having junior Natasha Browne, who might be out for the season after suffering an ankle injury in last week’s High Desert Classic, and senior Franny O’Byrne, who is not playing basketball after migraines from concussions sustained during soccer season. The pain is so bad that it even keeps her from attending school some days. “We’re struggling with injuries right now, and we’re going to have to make some changes in our lineup to be able to compete at a higher level,” Desert Academy head coach Gerald Medina said. “But we’ll make it work.” Medina will find out if Browne is out for the season after test results on her ankle come out on Thursday. Danielle Zimber scored 15 points to lead the Lady Wildcats against the Lady Wolves (2-3) while Cassidy Logan and Amelia Linnet each added 8. Alex Chastenet scored 13 points to lead Santa Fe Waldorf. LOS ALAMOS 57, ALB. HOPE CHRISTIAN 52 While everyone keeps an eye on Ashlynn

Trujillo, they better not forget about Amber Logan. Logan made five 3-pointers and finished with 24 points to lead the Lady Hilltoppers (5-0) past the visiting Lady Huskies in a nondistrict game. Trujillo added 18 points to the effort, and Los Alamos head coach Nestor Trujillo wants to the rest of the state to fear these two guards. “That guard tandem is probably one of the best in the state, regardless of class,” coach Trujillo said. “Ashlynn has a target on her back, and she relishes the opportunity to play with someone like Amber.” Hanna Valencia had 17 points to lead Hope while Brielle Milford chipped in 15. SANTA FE HIGH 51, ALB. SANDIA 30 The Demonettes took care of their second Class AAAAAA opponent this year in a nondistrict game in Toby Roybal Memorial Gymnasium despite not having leading scorer Kayla Herrera, who was out after suffering an ankle injury in the championship game of the Al Armendariz Tournament on Dec. 6. Senior point guard Savina Padilla led Santa Fe High (7-0) with 11 points while fellow senior Briana Hernandez added 10 points. Herrera is expected back against Las Vegas Robertson in the first round of the Bobby Rodriguez Capital City Tournament on Thursday. MONTE DEL SOL 43, NEW MEXICO SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF 38 It was knotted at 17 heading into the second half, but the Lady Dragons outscored the Lady Roadrunners 10-5 in the third quarter and held on for their first win of the

season in Larson Gymnasium. Alejandra Castillo led Monte del Sol (1-4) with 15 points, while Brooke Gallegos added 12. Margaret Appa paced NMSD with 14 points, and Janelle Miller chipped in with 11. BOYS

SANTA FE WALDORF 54, DESERT ACADEMY 40 The Wolves overcame two big blown leads in the High Desert Classic last week to finally get back in the win column against the Wildcats in a nondistrict game in Christian Life Academy. The game was tied at 8 at one point, but Santa Fe Waldorf (3-2) held a 37-22 lead at halftime and never looked back. “We were really determined to shake that off, and I think we did by having a complete ball game,” Santa Fe Waldorf head coach Rob Clifford said. “I would say that we were in control of the game.” Augie Ciofalo had 22 points to lead the Wolves while Abel Knouse added 14 points and 12 rebounds and Sean Ramsey 12 points and 10 rebounds. John Rigatti had 24 points to lead Desert Academy (4-3). PECOS 57, ESTANCIA 39 The Panthers secured their first win of the season behind Christopher Vigil’s 22 points and Mario Archuleta’s 14 in Louis G. Sanchez Memorial Gymnasium. Estancia, which was playing its season opener after waiting on several players from its Class AAA state championship football team, had Caleb Ortiz lead the way with 18 points.

Dons: Made most of Prep’s sluggish play Continued from Page B-4 by as much as 51-38 thanks to a lackluster third quarter, roared back to within 54-51 thanks to a pair of 3s from francis Castillo y Mulert and six points from Andersson, the last two coming off a block and transition layup with 6 minutes, 2 seconds left in the game. Coincidentally, that was the moment when Bustos got hurt, as it was his baseline layup that Andersson blocked and Bustos’ elbow came crashing down on … something. “I think I hit either his elbow or his head or something, and I got a stinger on my elbow,” said D.J. Bustos. Dad called a timeout immediately after Gallegos’ layup just 11 seconds later, and D.J. walked to the end of the bench, holding his elbow and writhing in pain. When Andersson scored off the glass to make it 56-53, Valdez stepped into the vacant spotlight. First he drained a corner 3 to boost the margin up to 57-53, then he played perfectly off of D.J. Bustos after he checked back in, stilling smarting from the pain in his elbow. “I had to be out there with my team-

mates,” D.J. Bustos said. On the Don’s next possession, he took a D.J. Bustos pass to the right corner and nailed another 3 for a 62-54 lead. The closest Prep (5-3) got was 62-56 on Andersson’s layup with 1:45 left, then West Las Vegas went 4-for-6 from the line to seal the win. “We were concentrating on Bustos,” Blue Griffins head coach Dennis Casados said. “We had to because he’s their player. He kicked it out on the baseline and the little kid hit the shot.” While Valdez supplied the dagger, the Dons stifled Prep with their zone press to start the third quarter. After a back-andforth affair that saw Prep hold a 30-29 lead at the break, West Las Vegas decided to put pressure on the Blue Griffins’ guards. It has been a popular strategy for opponents since Casados took over in 2011, and for good reason. Prep struggled to get the ball into Andersson, who still finished with 29 points, and Perillo, who had just two of his nine points in the second half. The Blue Griffins had five turnovers in the third quarter and hit just two of their first eight shots from the field. The Dons, meanwhile, were a white-

hot 5-for-6 to start and capped the quarter with three straight 3s to garner their 13-point edge. Bustos hit the last two in that stretch as he finished with a team-high 26 points. “We were able to get some easy buckets and hit some shots,” coach Bustos said. “Like I told the boys, we needed to get the lead and we did. And then we just played control basketball.” Still, Prep felt the sluggish start had less to do with West Las Vegas’ press than on its energy level coming out of the locker room. “They put some good pressure on us, bottom line,” Prep guard Wyeth Carpenter said. “We came out into the second half a little lackadaisical and it didn’t turn out so well.” However, Casados pinpointed that poor energy level as the reason for Prep’s current three-game slide. “It’s nothing that they did,” Casados said of the Dons. “We do it to ourselves. We have a costly turnover, a missed defensive assignment. But it’s on us. We need to come out after halftime and get after it and say, ‘It’s zero-zero,’ and start playing.”

NFL DENVER BRONCOS

Fox: Downshifting isn’t permanent By Arnie Stapleton The Associated Press

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The downshifting of Denver’s highoctane offense doesn’t mean the Broncos won’t “put our foot on the gas and throw it 50 times,” insists coach John Fox. So, the San Diego Chargers had better buckle up and get ready this week for either a gouging ground game or a return to the aerial fireworks. “At the end of the day it’s all about ‘W’s,’ ” said running back C.J. Anderson, whose legs are getting much more of a workout lately than Peyton Manning’s right arm. The buzz surrounding the Broncos (10-3) a month ago was that they were throwing the ball too much. Now the teeter-totter has gone the other way, and there’s concern that their runheavy offense has gotten Manning out of rhythm. The hurry-up has become the huddle-up, and more often than not, the five-time MVP is turning around and handing the ball off rather than chucking it down the field. Over the last three weeks, Manning has handed off 102 times and thrown it 89 times, completing 59 of those. In Denver’s 24-17 win over Buffalo on Sunday, Manning didn’t throw any touchdown passes for the first time in his 49 games as a Bronco. He had two interceptions and his passer rating of 56.9 was his lowest since Nov. 30, 2008, at Cincinnati, when it was a paltry 46.8. Concerned Broncos fans

and flustered fantasy football owners are debating whether this shift is a concession to age — Manning is 38 — or a fundamental change in Denver’s drive to return to the Super Bowl. Fox gave an emphatic answer Monday. “Let me just say that I can’t think of another quarterback that I’d rather have than Peyton Manning,” Fox said. “We remind everybody that whether it’s two weeks, three weeks, at the end of the day we’re not done with our body of work yet. We’re just trying to win games. We’ve been blessed to win three in a row. “We’ll lean on whatever we have to lean on. We’re just trying to be efficient at both,” Fox said. “Unless something else is created, you’re either running it or you’re throwing it. I think we’re going to do what’s neces-

sary to win football games. It just so happens over the last few weeks we’ve leaned a little more on one side. But as long as it’s effective, that’s what helps you win games.” So, Fox said, there’s nothing wrong with Manning or the passing game — save for the Thomases hobbled by sore ankles. Julius Thomas has missed almost a month and Demaryius Thomas caught just two passes for 11 yards Sunday, his lowest output since he had 10 yards against Detroit in 2011 when Tim Tebow was his quarterback. “Our passing game is fine,” Fox said. “You never know, we might put our foot on the gas and throw it 50 times. I can’t really predict what’s going to happen because a lot of it’s based on what our opponent

does in matchups. There [also] have been injuries that have had something to do with it.” Those affect the Broncos’ blueprints, he said. “So, there’s nothing wrong with our passing game. We’ve just run it a little bit more over the last few weeks — just like there was nothing wrong with our run game when people were blowing fuses on that,” Fox said. “We just happened to be throwing it more. So, our goal is to be efficient at both.” Manning admitted getting away from the pass-heavy offense has been “a little bit of an adjustment,” and it’s had a big impact on his production. Sunday marked just the 10th time in his 276 career starts that Manning threw 20 or fewer passes, and almost all the others were games in which he made only a cameo appearance or gave way to his backup for mopup duty. Only one other time has he played the entire game and thrown fewer passes: He had 17 throws, including three touchdowns, in a 35-3 win over Tennessee on Dec. 4, 2005. Denver’s defenders are pleased to see this new no-frills offense because that usually means they’re on the field a lot less. “We like our rest,” nose tackle Terrance Knighton said. “I mean, on the sideline I love watching Peyton throw the ball, D.T., Emmanuel Sanders, I love all of them catching touchdowns. But then again, run the ball maybe once or twice more just to give us a break.”

$15 million option for 2015. The Panthers have repeatedly said Newton is a guy they view as their franchise quarterback moving forward. But it has been a rough year for Newton. After the Panthers fell at home to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC divisional playoffs in January, Newton had ankle surgery in March that sidelined him for all but one of the team’s spring practices. He returned for the start of the training camp, but then suffered another setback when he fractured his ribs during a preseason game against the New England Patriots. The injuries forced Newton to miss Carolina’s season opener. He has said he’s not been close to 100 percent all season. Newton is 23-31-1 as an NFL starter in the regular season and 0-1 in the playoffs. Derek Anderson is the team’s backup quarterback and would be first in line to replace Newton if he is unable to play Sunday against Tampa Bay (2-10). Anderson started and led Carolina to a season-opening victory against the Bucs.

Samardzija, a right-hander who turns 30 on Jan. 23, made $5,345,000 this year and is eligible for salary arbitration. He can become a free agent after the 2015 season. “We’re going to make every effort to make this a long-term relationship,” Hahn said. “We felt that this was a premium starter who fit, not just in terms of how he fit in our rotation, but how he fit in our clubhouse.” Samardzija wasn’t so sure he would want to miss free agency. “You’re so close to it, you really want to experience it,” he maintained. “But like I said before, when the situation’s right, it’s right. When the numbers are right, they’re right.” Earlier in the offseason, Chi-

cago agreed to a $25 million, two-year contract with first baseman Adam LaRoche and a $15 million, three-year deal with left-hander Zach Duke. Samardzija joins a rotation that includes Chris Sale, who finished third in AL Cy Young Award voting, and Jose Quintana. “It’s a gutsy move,” White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “You look around at our division, and you see the starting pitchers out there, of what it takes to make it in your division of facing them all the time, and we feel like that’s something we had to do.” AP sports writers Howie Rumberg and Andrew Seligman contributed to this report.

Newsmakers Police: Rapper, wife tried to reconcile before killing

Stephanie Elyse Moseley

Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Earl Warren Hayes

LOS ANGELES — Rapper Earl Warren Hayes and his estranged wife were trying to reconcile and she was optimistic about their chances only days before Hayes killed her and committed suicide, a police detective said Tuesday. The bodies of Hayes, 34, and 30-year-old Stephanie Elyse Moseley were found Monday morning inside their Park La Brea unit in the Fairfax district after neighbors reported hearing gunshots and a woman screaming, police said. Hayes was an acquaintance of professional boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. and police have asked to interview him following media reports that he may have spoken to Hayes before the murder-suicide, homicide Detective Scott Masterson said. Moseley was a dancer and actress who appeared in the VH1 cheerleader drama Hit the Floor. Moseley had spoken to family members in Canada last Thursday and told them that “things were going pretty [well] and that she was upbeat and optimistic about things,” the detective said. Investigators don’t know “what made it turn so violent Monday morning,” Masterson said. The Associated Press

Good news and bad news in Peru

A dancer waits Tuesday before a performance at the Climate Change Conference in Lima, Peru. Delegates from more than 190 countries are meeting in Lima to work on drafts for a global climate deal that is supposed to be adopted next year in Paris. JUAN KARITA/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Feeling unappreciated for the effort she puts into decorating each year, she decides to forego it this time. Mike (Neil Flynn) still tries to make the occasion festive, though Sue’s (Eden Sher) Christmas-tree allergy poses a complication. Brick (Atticus Shaffer) aims to write a seasonal letter. 8 p.m. on CW The 100 An impending assault by the Grounders forces Abby (Paige Turco) to make some tough decisions in the new episode “Long Into an Abyss.” Clarke (Eliza Taylor) suggests a plan to counter the attack. Jasper and Monty (Devon Bostick, Christopher Larkin) develop doubts about their new acquaintances. Bob Morley, Thomas McDonell and Isaiah Washington also star.

LIMA, Peru he current U.N. climate talks will be the first to neutralize all the greenhouse gas pollution they generate, offset by host country Peru’s protection of forest reserves, organizers say. Now the bad news: The Lima conference is expected to have the biggest carbon footprint of any U.N. climate meeting measured to date. At more than 50,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide, the negotiations’ burden on global warming will be about 1½ times the norm, said Jorge Alvarez, project coordinator for the U.N. Development Program. The venue is one big reason. It had to be built. Eleven football fields of temporary structures arose for the 13-day negotiations from what three months ago was an empty field behind Peru’s army’s headquarters. Concrete was laid, plumbing installed, components flown in from as far as France and Brazil. Standing in the midday sun here can get downright uncomfortable, but the Lima sun is not reliable. That’s one reason solar panels were not used. For electricity, the talks are relying exclusively on diesel generators. Organizers had planned to draw power from Peru’s grid, which is about 52 percent fed by non-polluting hydroelectric power. “We worked to upgrade transformers

and generators but for some reason it didn’t work,” said Alvarez. Environmental economist John M. Reilly of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology called the “wasted efforts” to build makeshift quarters disturbing — unless the talks “were actually successful in halting future emissions.” This is the 20th round of talks and so far there is little sign of serious progress. Alvarez itemized the talks’ carbon footprint: u Construction, nearly 20 percent of the footprint. u Jet fuel burned by the estimated 11,000 delegates and observers who flew in from abroad, about 30 percent. u Local transportation. Organizers hired more than 300 buses since there are no public transit services to the venue. All burn fossil fuels. About 15-20 percent. u Electricity, solid waste treatment, water, paper, food, disposable plates and cups, keeping 40,000 police on high alert, for the balance. The 50,000 tons the conference emits is what China as a country emits in three minutes, the U.S. does in five minutes and Peru does in six hours and 40 minutes. The conference’s green components are meager. Peruvian Environment Minister Manuel Pulgar-Vidal asked for a bicycle parking lot. He got it, but only about 40 people use it daily. Most delegates spend about an hour in traffic traveling less than 6 miles from their hotels. On Monday, U.N. organizers announced that “in view of the high temperatures expected to continue and intensify,” delegates were invited to adjust “by wearing business casual attire” to most events.

Senate panel told: Few campus sex assaults reported to police By Kimberly Hefling The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Only a fraction of campus sexual assault victims go to police. Senators on Tuesday grappled with the thorny issue of why some just let their college handle it — or don’t report it at all. Some sexual assault victims have said they prefer to work within their university system to seek disciplinary action against the perpetrator, such as expulsion, without the stress of pressing criminal charges. “I am concerned that law enforcement is being marginalized when it comes to the crime of campus sexual assault,” said Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., the subcommittee chairman, at a hearing on the issue. “I’m concerned that the specter of flawed law enforcement overshadows the harm of marginalized law enforcement.” The hearing comes following a high-profile Rolling Stone article that described a gang rape alleged to have occurred in a fraternity house at the University of Virginia. The magazine later acknowledged mistakes in its reporting. In many cases, victims aren’t told they can pursue

a criminal case, testified Peg Langhammer, executive director of the Day One organization in Providence, Rhode Island. Whitehouse said victims are victimized again if they are steered away from law enforcement. Whitehouse, a former U.S. attorney and attorney general in his home state, said evidence shows that most men who commit these crimes are serial offenders — and a threat to public safety. On campuses, there’s often no clearly identified place for a victim to seek help, testified Angela Fleischer, assistant director of student support and intervention for confidential advising at Southern Oregon University, which links law enforcement and campus administrators in cases of sexual assault. She stressed the importance of close coordination between the campus and local police and said reporting of campus sexual assaults has increased since the school began working with law enforcement. Reports of sexual assault on campus rose 50 percent from 2009 to 2012, Whitehouse said. He said the majority of offenses go unreported. Statistics show that 1 in 5 women is assaulted during their college years.

Eggnog: On once-a-year treats, don’t hold back By Sara Moulton The Associated Press

Eggnog is a funny thing. We crave it for one month a year, then never think about it again. And when we do crave it, we love to pretend that this sinfully rich drinkable dessert (basically, it’s melted ice cream in a glass) is a perfectly reasonable and festive little pre-dinner aperitif. The more honest among us glug it down without pretense. After all, life is short; we should eat dessert first. Technically, eggnog is cooked custard cream. The French — in a nod to the English passion for it — call it creme anglaise. The English themselves call it custard. By any name, it is the base of most ice creams. In fact, if you felt lazy, you could just pull that pint of premium vanilla ice cream out of the freezer, let it defrost in the refrigerator, add some booze and a sprinkle of nutmeg, and pass it off as your very own custom-made eggnog. Even easier, you can buy eggnog by the carton at the supermarket. But I promise that the version you make from scratch at home will be the best you’ve ever had. A great eggnog requires few ingredients — milk and/or cream, sugar, vanilla, eggs, nutmeg and (if you like) bourbon, brandy or rum. Many

hef Paddy Rawal is an entrepreneur. These days that word has almost ceased to have any real meaning, referring both to people who join pyramid schemes to sell vitamins as well as venture capitalists who move big chunks of money from startup to startup. But Rawal is an entrepreneur in the purest sense, a man who built something from the ground up that both reflects who he is and that he operates his way. Pramod “Paddy” Rawal, who hails from Mumbai, came to what he frequently describes as “this great country” with $100 and a suitcase full of moxie. He had a background in cooking, having trained under several chefs in several countries before landing in Michigan. Now Rawal is the chef/owner of Raaga, a popular Indian restaurant on Agua Fría Street. Restaurants are businesses, but some feel more like businesses than others. Some are grungy, some are fancy, many are faceless and corporate, but Raaga is a restaurant with a personality, a place where you can get to know the owner/chef through his food and through his conversation, as Rawal is likely to come out of the kitchen and converse with his patrons during dinner. “I wanted to come here and do something of my own and be an asset as an immigrant,” Rawal says. “That’s what I’m all about.” And Rawal is basically doing whatever he likes, and he’s doing it his way. Raaga is not Rawal’s first rodeo. He used to own two restaurants in Detroit, which he had to shut down due to the tanking economy in Michigan. But Raaga, which he opened in 2011, is a success story — an Indian restaurant that more or less bucks the mold of buffets and standard dishes, offering something familiar but still original. The food is a bit more modern, adapted by Rawal to suit his taste, his recipes heavily influenced by watching his mother cook. Instead of lunch buffets, he offers the option for smaller portions or tapas portions of almost every dish on the menu. And now, patrons of Raaga will see a new offering from Rawal when they walk in the door: his self-published cookbook, The Raaga Cookbook: Modern Indian Cuisine, which is for sale only in the restaurant and on Amazon. Once, self-publishing was less than prestigious, the mark of a book rejected by publishers. But now food bloggers are a major presence in the food-writing world, and as any cookbook publisher will tell you, a writer’s platform is of utmost importance in marketing a book. A “platform,” in publishing jargon, is a venue for self-marketing, which can be a blog, a TV show or a restaurant. And having carved out their own market, many writers now actually choose to go the route of self-publishing, or publishing on demand. Self-publishing is essentially an upscale version of sending your book out for duplication at a copy house. There is an upfront cost for setup and printing, but after that, you are free to sell it and keep all the profits for yourself. And if you have a built-in market already, it

Main office: 983-3303 Late paper: 986-3010 News tips: 986-3035

makes a lot of sense to do so. In the cookbook game, particularly, self-publishing is very much in the entrepreneurial spirit. After all, Rawal is not on Food Network, he’s a working chef, and he knows who his market is: It’s his patrons, the people who come into his restaurant and get addicted to his food, and who requested that he write the cookbook in the first place. “My recipes … are a little unique, a little different, they’re not run-of-the-mill … they’re not taken from another cookbook,” Rawal says. “I just do what I learned with my mom and saw how she used the spices at home, and all the work I did under great cooks and chefs who didn’t necessarily go to culinary school, but just learned things through generations.” The result is Raaga’s distinctive flavor, Indian food that’s a little more modern and recognizably different than the paint-by-numbers food you often find at Indian restaurants that can sometimes be virtual clones of each other. “I am not technically savvy,” shrugs Rawal. “I don’t know anything about books, I don’t know anything about publishing … I was doing this just for using it as the first step towards doing a real big [book], as a test to see if it is accepted. … If I can bring out a book that doesn’t cost a lot so I don’t have to charge a lot, see how my guests feel about it, get feedback, then it’s worth the time, effort, and money.” Rawal used CreateSpace to print the book, one of the myriad self-publishing companies available to self-publishing writers. The book itself is short, only 50 pages, but contains many of Raaga’s most popular dishes, including spinach chaat (warm spinach salad) tandoori chicken, and sweet gulab jamun, milk puffs in a honey syrup. It has a forward by local cheflebrity Johnny Vee (John Vollertsen), is edited by Margo Chan Taylor, and is festooned with bright photos by Santa Fe-based photographer Doug Merriam. The ingredient lists are short and uncomplicated, and he tries to keep things simple, fresh and easy for people to sort out in their own kitchens. If you buy the book in the restaurant, it costs $11.95 and Rawal will sign it for you, but you can also find it on Amazon for about a dollar less. In the first week, he sold 55 copies in the restaurant and about 15 online. “Not a bad start,” smiles Rawal. “It’s about doing something that I felt I always wanted to do, and partly also because I’m fulfilling my guests’ request, and that’s important.” And, like everything else, Rawal is doing it himself, his way.

h On the menu and in the book In Paddy Rawal’s new cookbook, Raaga diners will find familiar favorites such as, from top, naan; spinach chaat (warm spinach salad); and lasooni gobhi, cauliflower florets in tomato garlic sauce.

IF YOU GO What: Raaga chef Paddy Rawal will be signing copies of his new book, The Raaga Cookbook. Come for the book, smell the fragrant air, stay for dinner. When: 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 21 Where: Raaga, 544 Agua Fría St. More information: www. raagacuisine.com

Go low and slow for a rib roast that stays rare By Sara Moulton The Associated Press

Here’s my holiday conundrum, and I bet you can relate: I am in charge of this year’s holiday meal, which will feature a big standing rib roast. Everyone in my family wants their meat rare, but I want the outside to be nicely seared. How to have both? Cooking a big roast at high heat can get you that nice crisp outer crust, but it comes at a price. Cooking a roast at high heat for even part of the time generally means you end up with just a small core of rare meat running down the center of the roast. Luckily, the fix is easy. Instead of roasting the meat at high heat for any amount of time, I briefly sear the roast on the stovetop before it goes in the oven. Then it is hands off time while the beef slowly comes up to whatever internal temperature you want in a 200 degree oven. That’s it. Perfect outside, perfect inside. You’ll want to make sure your oven is well calibrated and that you have a proper instant thermometer. And don’t forget to let the roast rest after you have cooked it so the juices have time to re-distribute, ensuring juicy meat. When shopping for your roast, ask for a partial rack of bones, three to four bones from the loin end, also referred to as the small end or the first cut. This half of the rack has less fat and more meat than the shoulder side of the roast. Also, ask the butcher to remove the chine bone, which allows you to cut between the ribs when the roast is done. I like to serve my roast with a rich bearnaise sauce. It is the holidays, after all. Make the reduction for the sauce while the roast is in the oven, then finish it while the meat rests. I like to use both dry and fresh tarragon for my bearnaise for a more intense tarragon hit. I put the dry stuff in

the reduction, then strain it out and finish with fresh. SLOW-ROASTED STANDING RIB ROAST WITH BEARNAISE SAUCE Total time: 3½ to 4½ hours (40 minutes active); makes 14 servings For the roast: 8- to 10-pound standing beef rib roast (3 to 4 ribs), the top 2 inches of the bones frenched, if desired Salt and ground black pepper 1 tablespoon vegetable oil For the bearnaise: 2 tablespoons minced shallots ½ cup dry white wine ½ cup Champagne or white wine vinegar ½ teaspoon kosher salt ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper 1 tablespoon dried tarragon 4 large egg yolks 1¼ cups (2½ sticks) butter, cut into ½-inch pieces and chilled 2 to 3 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon, or to taste 2 teaspoons lemon juice Preparation: Heat the oven to 200 degrees. Set a roasting rack

into a large roasting pan. Trim the surface layer of fat on the top side of the roast until just ¼ inch thick. Using a sharp knife, score the remaining fat layer in a crisscross pattern, cutting down to, but not into, the meat. Season the roast all over with salt and pepper. In a large skillet over high heat, heat the oil. Reduce the heat to medium-high, add the roast and brown on all sides except the bone side. Transfer the roast, fat side up, to the prepared roasting pan. Roast on the oven’s middle shelf until the center of the meat reaches 115 to 120 degrees for rare and 120 to 125 degrees for medium rare, about 3 hours. Transfer the roast to a platter and cover loosely with foil. Let stand for 20 minutes before carving. While the roast rests, prepare the bearnaise. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the shallots, wine, vinegar, salt, pepper and tarragon. Bring to a simmer and gently cook until reduced to about ⅓ cup. Strain the mixture through a mesh strainer into a medium metal bowl, pressing hard on the solids. Discard the solids. Add the egg yolks to the liquid and whisk until combined well. Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (the water should not be touching the bottom of the bowl) and whisk constantly until the mixture feels quite warm to the touch (do not let it get too hot or the eggs will scramble). Immediately start adding the butter several pieces at a time, whisking until the pieces are almost melted before adding the next piece. When all the butter is added remove the bowl from the saucepan. Whisk in the fresh tarragon, lemon juice and some of the meat juices that have accumulated on the platter, if desired. Season with salt and pepper. Slice the meat and serve each portion topped with bearnaise sauce.

Treat: Go lighter, if you dare Continued from Page C-1 recipes say the eggs should be raw, but I don’t recommend it. Not only is it safer to cook the eggs, it also ensures the eggnog develops a thick, rich texture. You start by beating together the eggs and sugar. Hot milk then is added, but only a bit. This step is called tempering. By mixing a little hot milk into the eggs, you raise their temperature enough to be able to cook them without scrambling them. If you added all of the hot milk at once, you’d end up with unappealing chunks of cooked egg in your nog. Once everything is combined, turn off the phone, tune out the kids and concentrate on stirring the custard while it heats until it reaches the proper thickness. There’s a chance that the mixture can curdle if you become distracted during this process and allow the custard to get too hot. Ideally, you’re using a wooden spoon. Your goal is to be able to coat the spoon, run your finger through the custard on the spoon’s backside and leave a path that doesn’t quickly disappear. That’s when you’ll know it’s done. At that point the custard has reached 160 degrees, the temp at which the eggs are considered safe. As extra insurance against curdling, I have added cornstarch to the custard; this will stabilize the mixture. But if you prefer, you can leave the cornstarch out. And by the way, if you do rush and scramble your eggs, just throw the custard into a blender. This will help smooth out the texture, though the finished product won’t be as smooth as a never-scrambled version. If you want your eggnog to have a lighter texture, you can whip the heavy cream before it is added (I explain how below). If you’re looking to make a seriously extravagant eggnog, you might add some finely chopped white chocolate to the hot custard. You’re welcome to use dark chocolate instead, but the finished drink doesn’t look as classically eggnog-y. Either way, don’t forget to coat the rim of the glass with crushed peppermint. It’s the perfect counterpoint to the drink itself. And if, heaven forbid, you’re overtaken by the spirit of

NEW YORK he Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum, revamped, restored and expanded after a threeyear closure, is reopening at last, all decked out for the 21st century in its historic Carnegie Mansion home just a few blocks up Fifth Avenue from the Guggenheim and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Visitors to the museum, which reopens Friday, will be hard-pressed to recognize the old-fashioned, somewhat wonky entity of old. It’s now four stories of cutting-edge galleries, hands-on and community-friendly. The spacious garden, adjoining cafe and gift shop, housed in Andrew Carnegie’s 19th-century picture gallery, will be accessible from a 90th Street gate and open to the public at no charge. Inside, ticket-holders should come ready to experience a new kind of museum straddling art and science, 19th-century architecture and a 21st-century Jetsons sort of world, where 3-D designs can be downloaded and hundreds of wallpaper patterns can be viewed (or designed) at the touch of a finger. Visitors are invited to use the museum as a practical design resource and exploration center as much as a museum in the traditional sense. “I can’t wait to see how people make use of this,” said museum director Caroline Baumann, stepping gingerly around multi-touch surfaces the size of billiard tables, contemporary design pieces and even some antique French furniture. “It really makes the heart soar.” With 60 percent more gallery space than it had before, the Cooper Hewitt opens with 10 new shows at once, making use of all four floors. On the ground floor, Designing the New Cooper Hewitt recounts the museum’s transformation, which involved 12 design teams and took a decade to realize. The first floor features a “Process Lab” with an industrial-size 3-D printer, among other tools. The lab invites visitors to explore the process of problem-solving behind design. A Beautiful Users exhibit includes pitchers, wheelchairs and other objects from daily life, examining the shift toward user-oriented design. A quick climb up one more staircase and the juxtaposition of traditional and cutting-edge really starts to take flight. Making Design brings together a wide range of works from the museum’s permanent collection, while Hewitt Sisters Collect tells the story of Eleanor and Sarah Hewitt and their collections of textiles, hatboxes, wall coverings, furniture and even birdcages (notice the

Holiday magic in … Medellin?

sound of chirping birds), among other decorative arts. Elsewhere, an Immersion Room allows visitors access to the Cooper Hewitt’s extensive collection of wall coverings and projects them, full-scale, onto the walls. The third floor, formerly closed to the public and now transformed into a 6,000-square-foot gallery, features the exhibit Tools: Extending Our Reach. Highlights include a walk-through installation composed of dozens of hammers, saws and other basic tools, suspended so they appear to be exploding, and a 24-hour, delayed live feed of the sun’s surface, courtesy of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, Mass. — an illustration of the power of complex tools like satellites and telescopes. The exhibit is reminiscent at times of what you might expect from a science museum. The final elements of the museum’s transformation will be added this spring, when seating and terraces are added to the garden, an “evolved version” of the 1902 original, and each museum visitor will be loaned an interactive “pen.” The grippy black stylus, around 8 inches long, can be used to doodle or design on any of the generously sized multi-touch tables throughout the museum; to locate specific items in the collection (doodling a zigzag pattern, for example, brings up all items with a zigzag in their design); or to download background material. A unique Web address on each entry ticket lets the visitor download material to be accessed later online. As for the mansion itself, the detailed, teak-veneer parquet floors have been replaced by century-old teak in the same seven patterns that Carnegie installed. The Caldwell light fixtures — one of the earliest types of electrical lighting in the city — are gleaming again. And multiple layers of paint have been removed to reveal the ornately carved, Caen limestone, arched ceiling just inside the 91st Street entrance. “This was one of the first homes in the world to have air conditioning, heating and an elevator system, really cutting-edge technologies of the time,” Baumann said. “Andrew Carnegie would be pleased if he could see it today.”

MEDELLIN, Colombia — Medellin for Christmas vacation? Si, si! The city once wracked by drug violence has undergone massive social and economic transformation, and it’s now known in tourist circles for spectacular Christmas light displays that veil churches, buildings, parks and even the Medellin River with glittering cascades of color. The spectacle can be seen in neighborhoods around the city every night through Jan. 12 from 6 p.m. to 1 a.m. It draws an estimated 4 million visitors, including thousands of tourists. The scene feels like a carnival, with crowds of families on foot gazing in awe, street vendors and long lines of cars and tour buses streaming slowly by. The displays change each year and are created by EPM, a state utility company that derives much of its power from hydroelectric sources. The company, which also produces light displays in the Colombian cities of Cali and Quimbaya, held an open call for ideas for the light shows, resulting this year in more than 1,500 suggestions. The lights can be seen primarily in eight areas of the city: Cerro Nutibara, La Playa Avenue, East Avenue, Carabobo, San Juan, Junin, 70 North Street and Las Palmas. Each area’s display has a different theme, for example animals, symbols of peace, flowers and Christmas trees. Locals are quick to remind visitors that perceptions of the city as a center of drug violence are outdated. After all, Colombia’s most notorious outlaw, drug kingpin Pablo Escobar, was assassinated more than 20 years ago. While it’s possible to find tour guides offering “Escobar tours” of Medellin that include a stop at the building where he was ambushed by police, tour guide Andres Munera prefers to focus on more positive themes, from the Christmas lights to excursions to nearby coffee farms and nature reserves. Munera, 43, a native of Medellin, started his business, Land Venture Travel, in 2010, and says about 50 percent of his customers are American. After all, “it’s just a three-hour flight from Miami,” he said. He credits Alvaro Uribe — who served as Colombia’s president, as governor of the state where Medellin is located and briefly as Medellin’s mayor — with helping change Colombia’s reputation, and says life in Medellin has been transformed by everything from libraries and parks to assistance for entrepreneurs. Despite economic and social strides in Medellin and elsewhere, challenges remain. Medellin has recently been in the news over reports of underage prostitution, and the taxi industry in the capital, Bogotá, is plagued by robberies. But tourism is on the rise. In 2013, about 1.7 million tourists visited Colombia, more than three times the number that visited in 2002. About 20 percent of 2013 arrivals, or 343,891, were from the U.S., up slightly from the previous year. Tourism from the U.S. is expected to grow with the recent addition of direct flights on Avianca from New York. Munera says the improved quality of life, along with social media and word of mouth, is helping persuade tourists to visit. “We don’t do Pablo Escobar tours because that evil man was the worst thing that has ever happened to Medellin and the entire country,” Munera said. “We prefer to focus on the positive present than on a painful past.”

Christmas lights adorn a building on the banks of the Medellin river, in Medellin, Colombia. The city once wracked by drug violence has undergone massive social and economic transformation.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Husband is mean to wife in public Dear Annie: This is an open note to my husband: Dear Husband: I love you, and most of the time, I like you, as well. However, right now, I am too angry to talk to you. When I exhaust myself doing “womanly” things like cleaning the moldy shower stall that you never notice, you gush gratitude. When I spend umpteen hours on the garden, you tell everyone what a terrific, independent woman you married. Then you destroy all that loving support. When I take care of repairs or maintenance to the house or car, you always jump in after the fact, pointing out how I’ve been “taken advantage of” and “spent too much,” indicating that you, a man, would have known better. When I confront you, your derision gets worse. Suddenly, I am no longer that cool, intelligent woman you married. Now I am “unreasonable,” along with ignorant and naive. So I put up with your disrespect and feel like a fool. You make hurtful remarks to our children and friends. Then you laugh and tell them how funny it is that I just gave you “that look.” Would you rather I say out loud that you are capable of being one of the most inconsiderate people I know and that you are a first-class jerk? I don’t want to air our dirty linen in front of everyone, so I fold. And you think you win. But we both just lost, big time. We have been together too long for me to leave. But when you wonder why the closeness and intimacy have diminished, look in the mirror before you point a finger at me. — Tired and Disgusted Other Half Dear Tired: You have written an excellent letter explaining how a loving husband can undermine his wife’s affection and, over time, erode the marital bond. We suggest you show your husband this letter and tell him you wrote it. We think he will want to fix this before it’s too late. Get counseling if you need it. Dear Annie: My friend “Joe” rarely showers and smells like it. I have told him gently that he needs to shower more, and he says,

“You’re right. I should.” I wonder how his co-workers put up with the smell. I have given him light men’s cologne as a hint, but he doesn’t use it. I know he has decent soap in his place. And while he shaves a couple of times a week, he rarely combs his hair. What can I do? — Need a Gas Mask Dear Need: You have to be more direct and consider that you are doing your friend a favor, hard as it may be to say the words. Tell him, “Joe, you probably don’t realize how bad it is, but you have a noticeable body odor, and it is difficult to be around you. You absolutely need to shower at least three times a week and wear deodorant every day. It is no longer optional. You also might want to talk to your doctor, as it could be a medical problem.” You can discuss his hair another day. Dear Annie: “Fed Up in a Lonely Home” said he suffers from bipolar disease and depression, as well as a hearing disability. His family was not supportive, and he was having trouble finding employment. I would like to suggest vocational rehabilitation services in his state. Vocational rehabilitation services serve all people with disabilities to help them obtain, maintain or achieve a better employment outcome, free of charge. — Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor in Wisconsin Dear Wisconsin: Thank you for this excellent information. We hope “Fed Up” will look into it. Dear Readers: Sunday, Dec. 14, is The Compassionate Friends’ Worldwide Candle Lighting in memory of all the children who have died. Please light a candle in the evening at 7 p.m., local time, and remember them with love. For more information, log on to compassionatefriends.org. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column. Please email your questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or write to: Annie’s Mailbox, c/o Creators Syndicate, 737 3rd Street, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254.

Sheinwold’s bridge

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You have the ability to create. You understand the art of diplomacy and of saying the right thing to build up others’ confidence. Tonight: Join a friend for some holiday eggnog. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Take charge of a responsibility, even if it means having to avoid a family member. Your understanding marks your interactions. Tonight: Till the wee hours. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You will want to approach a matter differently, as you suddenly might be able to see the whole issue in a new light. Tonight: Let your mind wander. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You might enjoy being closer to a loved one. A family member or domestic situation could add some stress to your interactions. Tonight: Make time for a close friend.

Cryptoquip

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You could be unusually assertive, and others might be having a strong reaction. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH “All work and no play” could be a difficult goal to accomplish. In fact, it might be impossible to rein in your imagination today. Your effectiveness could be enhanced. Tonight: Run some errands on the way home. 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.
