Officials in CIA criticize torture report

ALBUQUERQUE — It will take an infusion of about $10 million for New Mexico to overhaul the way child abuse cases throughout the state are investigated and tracked, child welfare officials told state lawmakers Wednesday.

The Children, Youth and Families Department made its case to the Legislative Finance Committee for the additional funding so it can move ahead with reforms and expand them. The request encompasses the costs of numerous policy changes and directives the agency made in the wake of the death of Omaree Varela, a 9-year-old Albuquerque boy who police say was repeatedly kicked by his mother. The case set off a firestorm of criticism against Albu-

querque police and the child welfare agency for not removing the boy from his home after receiving earlier reports of abuse. Jennifer Padgett, the agency’s deputy secretary, acknowledged the gaps identified by the Varela case and told lawmakers the reforms are targeted at making sure cases such as Omaree’s don’t fall through the cracks. “Can we say 100 percent that there will not be another tragedy at the hands of a child’s parents? No. Do we

have the infrastructure and the proactive measures in place to do everything we can to prevent it? We’re working on that,” she said. The agency has been hamstrung in recent years by staffing shortages and overwhelming caseloads. A large portion of the funding requested for the next budget year would pay for 93 new full-time positions in the agency’s Protective Services Division to help with the grow-

Senate Dems blasted, claim errors in document

By Patrick Malone The New Mexican

By Bradley Klapper The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Top spies past and present campaigned Wednesday to discredit the Senate’s investigation into the CIA’s harrowing torture practices after 9/11, battling to define the historical record and deter potential legal action around the world. The Senate intelligence committee’s report doesn’t urge prosecution for wrongdoing, and the Justice Department has no interest in reopening a criminal probe. But the threat to former interrogators and their superiors was underlined as a U.N. special investigator demanded those responsible for “systematic crimes” be brought to justice, and human rights groups pushed for the arrest of key CIA and Bush administration figures if they travel overseas. Current and former CIA officials pushed back, determined to paint the Senate report as a political stunt by Senate Democrats tarnishing a program that saved American lives. It

Former Santa Fe County public works director James Lujan, a key witness in the state’s fraud case against Advantage Asphalt, testifies Wednesday in District Court about money he received while the contractor was getting millions of dollars worth of work for the county. LUIS SÁNCHEZ SATURNO/THE NEW MEXICAN

By Milan Simonich The New Mexican

ames Lujan, formerly the public works director of Santa Fe County, testified Wednesday that he accepted about $26,000 in cash bribes and three trips to Las Vegas, Nev., in return for making sure that the owner of Advantage Asphalt and Seal Coating received millions of dollars in roadway construction jobs. Portly, halting and often inconsistent in his testimony, Lujan was the day’s key prosecution witness against Advantage owner Joe Anthony Montoya. Lujan said Montoya recruited him as a conspirator, and they struck an illicit deal that was supposed to enrich them both. “If I got him work, we could both make money,” said Lujan, who has

pleaded guilty to but not yet been sentenced on one charge of bribery and eight counts of conspiracy to commit fraud. Under questioning by Deputy District Attorney Tim Williams, Lujan, 58, said he had initially lied to sheriff’s investigators about taking bribes from Montoya. “I was scared, and I was worried about the consequences,” he said. But in the large ceremonial courtroom where he testified before a jury and District Judge Jim Hall, Lujan said he was telling the whole truth to “create amends and get this to a head.” He said making his admission of guilt was “a relief.” Lujan testified that he had been gambling significant amounts of money when Montoya approached him with

the kickback scheme. In addition, Lujan said, he also owed childsupport payments. Defense attorney Sam Bregman pounced when he got his chance to cross-examine Lujan. Bregman said Lujan had once proclaimed himself innocent. But now, with Lujan’s sentencing looming over him, he told a different story by naming Montoya as the villain, Bregman said. Hammering at Lujan’s differing accounts, Bregman said to him, “Do you agree that you’re a liar?” “No,” Lujan said. Then Bregman reminded Lujan of a helpful statement he gave the defense in October. Lujan said then that he only took loans from Montoya, not bribes.

Conversations with lawmakers were a little breezier, and less tension filled the room, when Gov. Susana Martinez’s new human services chief, Brent Earnest, appeared for the first time before the Legislative Finance Committee on Wednesday in the seat previously occupied by political lightning rod Sidonie Squier. But the differences ended there. Earnest vowed to stay the course with the most controversial policies Squier adopted during her tenure heading the Human Services Department. Earnest said he plans to move ahead with an initiative to require some food benefit recipients to seek work and has no plans to retool the state’s behavioral health system, which some critics have said was thrown unnecessarily into upheaval

Backlash brewing over Oregon craft beer’s sale Locals upset their brand sold to world’s largest beer maker, Anheuser-Busch By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

Alabama woman convicted in sex ring; witness missing

Post office pays homage to Rudolph RUDOLPH, Wis. — Thousands of Christmas cards are pouring into a small Wisconsin village that shares its name with the most famous reindeer. The Rudolph Post Office receives more than 10,000 Christmas cards annually from all over the world to be stamped with festive markings during the holiday season. This year, the local effort coincides with the U.S. Postal Service issuing stamps commemorating the 50th anniversary of the popular television special, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. The Christmas cards sent to the post office can be embossed with a special cancellation on certain days as well as an ink stamp that features a reindeer and reads, “Rudolph, Wisconsin — home of the Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer,” Daily Tribune Media reported. All the cards will be mailed from the Rudolph Post Office on Saturday. The Associated Press

BAY MINETTE, Ala. — The conviction Wednesday of an Alabama woman accused of being part of an incestuous sex ring provided graphic evidence about horrendous child molestation, but it didn’t answer a baffling question: What happened to a young victim who is missing and presumed dead? Jurors took two hours to convict Wendy Wood Holland, 35, of sodomy, sexual abuse, sexual torture and child endangerment. She showed no emotion when the verdict was read. Prosecutors say Holland faces at least 20 years in prison and could get a life sentence. Witnesses heard two days of testimony in her trial that didn’t give any clues about the whereabouts of her 19-year-old niece Brittney Wood. Wood was last seen with Holland’s husband, Donnie, in 2012, and 11 people have since been arrested on sex-related charges. That includes Wendy Holland, on trial on charges of sexually abusing another underage relative. Authorities said Wood could provide important evidence about sexual crimes by her adult relatives if only they could find her alive. But searches and two years of investigation have failed to turn up any sign of her. Police believe Wood is dead, possibly killed in the days before the case went public.

Delays still plague Clinton’s State Department files WASHINGTON — The State Department has failed to turn over government documents covering Hillary Rodham Clinton’s tenure as secretary of state that The Associated Press and others requested under the U.S. Freedom of Information Act ahead of her presumptive presidential campaign. They include one request AP made four years ago and others pending for more than one year. The agency already has missed deadlines it set for itself to turn over the material. On Wednesday, the conservative political advocacy group Citizens United sued the State Department for failing to disclose flight records showing who accompanied Clinton on overseas trips.

Study: 270,000 tons of plastic floating in oceans HONOLULU — A new study estimates nearly 270,000 tons of plastic is floating in the world’s oceans. That’s enough to fill more than 38,500 garbage trucks. The plastic is broken up into more than 5 trillion pieces, said the study published Wednesday in the scientific journal PLOS ONE. The study’s lead author is Markus Eriksen of the 5 Gyres Institute, an organization that aims to reduce plastic in the oceans. The study only measured plastic floating at the surface. Plastic on the ocean floor wasn’t included. Bits greater than about 8 inches accounted for three-quarters of the plastic that the research estimated is in the ocean.

WASHINGTON— Primary care doctors caring for low-income patients will face steep fee cuts next year as a temporary program in President Barack Obama’s health care law expires. That could squeeze access just when millions of new patients are gaining Medicaid coverage. A study Wednesday from the nonpartisan Urban Institute estimated fee reductions will average about 40 percent nationwide. But they could reach 50 percent or more for primary care doctors in California, New York, New Jersey, and Illinois — big states that have all expanded Medicaid under the health law. Meager pay for doctors has been a persistent problem for Medicaid, the safety-net health insurance program. Low-income people unable to find a family doctor instead flock to hospital emergency rooms, where treatment is more expensive and not usually focused on prevention. To improve access for the poor, the health law increased Medicaid fees for frontline primary care doctors for two years, 2013 and 2014, with Washington paying the full cost. The goal was to bring rates up to what Medicare pays for similar services. But that boost expires Jan. 1, and efforts to secure even a temporary extension from Congress appear thwarted by the politically toxic debate over “Obamacare.” Doctors probably won’t dump their current Medicaid patients, but they’ll take a hard look at accepting new ones, said Dr. Robert Wergin, a practitioner in rural Milford, Neb., and president of the American Academy of Family Physicians. “You are going to be paid less, so you are going to have to look at your practice and find ways to eke it out,” Wergin said. Medicaid covers more than 60 million people, making the federal-state program even larger than Medicare. The health care law has added about 9 million people to the Medicaid rolls, as 27 states have taken advantage of an option that extends coverage to many low-income adults. Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia M. Burwell says expanding Medicaid in the remaining 23 states is one of her top priorities. But the fee cut could make that an even harder sell, since it may reinforce a perception that the federal government creates expensive new benefits only to pass the bill to states. In Pennsylvania, where the Medicaid expansion will take effect Jan. 1, doctors are facing a 52 percent fee reduction, according to the Urban Institute study. The fee boost has cost federal taxpayers at least $5.6 billion so far, but Stephen Zuckerman, one of the study’s authors, said it’s not clear whether access actually improved. Still, Zuckerman said the fee increase was also passed through to doctors seeing patients through managed-care plans, and now they will feel the cuts. Doctors groups say they will try to revive the Medicaid fee boost next year, when lawmakers must act to prevent a big cut in Medicare physician payments. The health program for seniors has much stronger political support.

TUCSON, Ariz. — About a third of the immigrants deported from the U.S.-Mexico border don’t recover belongings that were seized during their arrest, according to a report from a humanitarian group released Wednesday. The Tucson, Ariz.-based aid organization No More Deaths says the statistic shows a risk for migrants who often lose money or identification cards and become stranded with no way home. Most likely to lose their possessions are immigrants prosecuted under Operation Streamline, a policy requiring that people caught crossing the border illegally face criminal proceedings. Department of Homeland Security officials dispute the group’s assessment. “Any unlawful conduct by DHS employees is completely inconsistent with our values,” Homeland Security spokeswoman Marsha L. Catron said. “DHS takes allegations seriously and, if substantiated, will always take appropriate disciplinary action.” The report is based on nearly 1,500 cases from 2011 to 2014 and 165 interviews conducted by the University of Arizona.

House Speaker John Boehner said the agreement had backing from parties’ budget negotiators and defended the changes to campaign finance rules. “The Congress is very concerned about taxpayer funding of political activities,” Boehner told reporters, reminding them that President Barack Obama earlier this year signed legislation that ended tax dollars to pay for parties’ nominating conventions.

RAMALLAH, West Bank — A Palestinian Cabinet member died Wednesday after a scuffle with Israeli troops during a West Bank protest, and images of an Israeli officer grabbing the 55-year-old by the throat before he collapsed quickly stirred Palestinian anger at a time of badly strained relations with Israel. An autopsy has yet to determine what killed Ziad Abu Ain, but Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas called him the victim of a “clear crime” and a “barbaric act.” He decreed three days of mourning for the minister, whose portfolio included organizing protests against Israeli settlements and the West Bank separation barrier. The incident threatened to further inflame tensions between Israel and the Palestinians. Calls grew for Abbas to suspend security coordination with Israel. Abbas met with officials from his Fatah movement and the Palestine Liberation Organization late Wednesday to consider a response and said all options were open. In the session, Abbas held up a photo of the Israeli officer grabbing Abu Ain’s throat. Palestinians circulated the photo on social media under the hashtag #ICantBreathe —

drawing a link to the death of an unarmed black man after being placed into a chokehold by a white police officer in New York. Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Yaalon said the military was ready to investigate the incident jointly with Palestinian officials, and an Israeli pathologist was to attend an autopsy, along with Palestinian and Jordanian doctors. The United States called for a “swift, fair and transparent” inquiry into the incident. U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon urged restraint, amid fears the minister’s death could lead to a further deterioration in IsraeliPalestinian relations. The day’s events began around mid-morning when several dozen Palestinians, including Abu Ain, marched from the West Bank village of Turmus Aya toward an unauthorized Israeli settlement outpost, AdeiAd. Several dozen soldiers and members of the paramilitary border police blocked the marchers, firing tear gas and stun grenades, according to Palestinian witnesses and members of Yesh Din, an Israeli rights group. Eventually, marchers and troops faced each other, scuffling and shouting. Abu Ain, who was at the forefront of the group. At one point

Congress cuts student financial aid WASHINGTON — Congress will cut $303 million in funding for a federal program that allows many of the nation’s poorest students attend college, part of a massive spending package to keep the federal government open through the end of the year. The measure, championed by Senate Democrats, would cut Pell Grants in order to free up money to pay companies that collect student loans on

behalf of the Department of Education. Nine million students benefited from the $33.7 billion Pell Grant program in the 2013-14 school year. The program awards money that does not have to be repaid. Nearly two-thirds of African American undergraduates receive Pell funding, as do 51 percent of Latino undergrads, according to the Education Trust. The Washington Post

a border policeman grabbed the Palestinian minister by the throat and pushed him, according to an Associated Press photographer. Other witnesses said a soldier also pushed a rifle butt into Abu Ain’s chest. An aide, Abu Sassaka, said an Israeli soldier administered first aid to Abu Ain before protesters carried him away. An ambulance later took him to Ramallah Hospital and he died en route, Abu Sassaka said. Abu Ain headed a Palestinian Authority department dealing with Israeli settlements and had the rank of Cabinet member. Previously, he served as deputy minister for prisoner affairs.

Child: Funding aimed at ‘retention effort’ Continued from Page A-1 ing caseload. With more staffers, overtime pay could be curbed, burnout reduced and a more manageable workload created, Padgett said. “This is a retention effort,” she said. “What these investigators see on a day-byday basis is tragedy and with that comes a very, very heavy burden.” In October, Protective Services caseworkers investigated nearly 14 reports each. If all proposed and vacant full-time positions are filled, that would drop to less than 10. The national standard ranges

between 10 and 12 cases per worker per month. Staffers also reported working an average of 24 permanency cases in October. The national standard for those types of cases tops out at 15. Also included in the funding request is money to establish several child advocacy centers around the state that would be staffed by caseworkers as well as law enforcement agents. The center that opened in August in Valencia County has been well received, officials said. The agency also wants to open four more support sites around the state that

would offer short-term intervention for families that have three or more referrals related to allegations of abuse or neglect. The site in Bernalillo County just recently started to reach out to families, officials said. Several lawmakers agreed the reforms are critical but asked agency officials to look for areas where they could trim their requests. The Legislature will have less money to work with when hammering out the budget during the 60-day session that starts in January. A drop in oil prices has reduced the revenue forecast.

Sale: National beer makers’ sales decline Continued from Page A-1 of the day with a fine, locally brewed craft beer. The city and the surrounding area now claim nearly 30 breweries, many with owners looking for fulfillment in the beer, not the bottom line. The owners of 10 Barrel, twin brothers Chris and Jeremy Cox and Garrett Wales, say Anheuser-Busch was already handling their distribution. The idea of selling their operation came up over a few beers. They promise nothing will change. “We are really good at some things, like brewing cool beer and having fun,” Chris Cox said. “Other things, businesswise, we are not so great at. So it’s going to be a great partnership.” Terms of the deal have not yet been disclosed. Along with the criticism, the brewery’s Facebook page also offered sincere congratulations from fans happy to see a local institution strike a lucrative deal. While nationwide beer sales declined 1.9 percent last year, craft beer sales rose 17.2 percent, according to the Brewers Association, which represents craft brewers. The industry’s two giants, Anheuser-Busch and MillerCoors, have lost a total 20 million barrels in sales since 2008, said Bart Watson, an economist for the group. Anheuser-Busch craft beer CEO Andy Goeler said the company wants 10 Barrel to “continue to do more of what they are doing” and praised the brewery’s “amazing portfolio

of beers.” Other brewers are wary, especially in Oregon, which has 181 breweries and where craft beer accounts for 40 percent of beer consumed — tops in the nation. They’re especially leery in Bend, where the town’s beer-themed creation story is recited by native and newcomer alike. Located in sunny central Oregon and framed by the snow-capped Cascade Range, Bend was laid low in the 1980s by logging cutbacks to protect the northern spotted owl and salmon. Gary Fish was a California restaurateur looking for a new cool place and landed in Bend. He opened a brewpub in 1988 that quickly became the after-fun place of choice. It

evolved into Deschutes Brewery, Bend’s biggest, producing more than 300,000 barrels of beer in two dozen varieties. It distributes coast to coast. 10 Barrel started out with a bar on the outskirts of downtown. In 2006, its owners started a small brewery under the motto: “Brew beer, drink beer and have fun doing it!” Their beers became a hit, and their new brewery produces 42,000 barrels sold in Oregon, Idaho and Washington state. Their pub on the trendy West Side of Bend turned into one of the hottest spots in town, where people wait 90 minutes for a chance to sit at the bar watching the snow gently falling through an open garage door behind the bartender. They also have a pub

in Boise, Idaho, and another opening in Portland’s hip Pearl District. “The craft brewers came to the rescue of beer in the world,” said Larry Sidor, who served a stint as brew master at Deschutes, then started Crux Fermentation Project, where he is experimenting with extreme strains of yeast, hops and other ingredients. The acquisition deals “are really about trying to make beer a commodity again. They are sucking the life out of the brands.” But as the craft beer market matures and the original brewers get older, Fish said he expects many to look for someone — even a giant like Anheuser-Busch — to take over.

odds with lawmakers at times. In particular, Democrats have denounced the governor’s attempts to revive the work requirement for food benefits, and lawmakers from both parties have criticized the abrupt shake-up of behavioral health providers. But Earnest was firm about his intentions to carry on what Squier began on both fronts. Days before Squier resigned in November, the Human Services Department put off its plans to implement a work requirement for food benefits that had been suspended for five years during the Great Recession. The New Mexico Center on Law and Poverty and the Southwest Organizing Projects, which advocate for people living in poverty, filed a lawsuit accusing the department of failing to publicly disclose some details of the proposed rule change before adopting it. The legal challenge prompted the Human Services Department to abandon its plans to implement the requirement and begin the rule-making process anew. “We think it can be cleaner and we’re making it cleaner,” Earnest said. But he does not plan to bow to objections that the work requirement is a bad fit for New Mexico, where unemployment and poverty are more rampant than in most states. He said the rule-making process will start again soon with an eye on implementing the work requirement in March or April. The Human Services Department proposes to require able-bodied food ben-

efit recipients between 16 and 59 years old to work up to 20 hours a week, receive an equal amount of job training or seek work in order to continue getting assistance. Before the rule was suspended in 2009, it applied only to those ages 18 to 50. The proposed rule would also apply to food benefit recipients with children age 6 or older, although they had been exempt from the requirement before it was suspended. The change could affect the benefits of up to 80,000 people in a state where one in five residents qualifies for food assistance, the department estimates. Earnest, echoing Squier’s stance, said he does not regard the requirement as onerous and sees it as a path to longterm employment for food benefit recipients. Despite outcry from lawmakers representing every corner of the state over disrupted treatment for the mentally ill in the aftermath of last year’s behavioral health shake-up, Earnest said he is reluctant to review whether it should be undone. He said he is hopeful that Attorney General-elect Hector Balderas will make good on his promise to speed up the criminal investigation into the previous behavioral health providers, but the department will not be looking backward to determine whether it acted prudently when it removed them. “There’s only one way to go,” Earnest said, “and that’s forward.” Contact Patrick Malone at 986-3017 or pmalone@ sfnewmexican.com.

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama on Wednesday found himself caught in the middle of a collision between the CIA and his own Democratic allies, who accused the White House of helping to cover up a legacy of torture and put the president on the defensive over an interrogation program he never supported. Obama — who banned such methods when he took office — came under fire from Democrats on the committee for declining to endorse the report’s conclusion that they were ineffective and standing

by the CIA director, John O. Brennan. His attempt to find a balance on a polarizing issue inherited from his predecessor was seen by those critics as a failure to hold the agency accountable. Sen. Mark Udall of Colorado, a Democrat on the committee and a longtime critic of the CIA interrogations, took to the Senate floor to excoriate the agency for failing to come to terms with its mistakes and the White House for enabling its deceptions. Udall repeated his call for Brennan to resign. “Director Brennan and the CIA today are continuing to willfully provide inaccurate

information to misrepresent the efficacy of torture,” Udall said. “In other words, the CIA is lying.” He added that the president had failed to exercise his responsibility. Sen. Martin Heinrich of New Mexico, another Democrat on the committee, echoed the sentiment. “I would hope there would be a bit of a housecleaning from the White House given the results of this report,” he said in an interview. “The fundamental problem here is not just what happened but the continued resistance of the leadership of this agency to the basics of oversight.”

Martinez proposes paying new teachers more Governor’s $11.5 million package of measures also would create mentorship program to boost grades The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — Gov. Susana Martinez on Wednesday announced an $11.5 million package of proposals that includes paying new teachers more and creating a mentorship program that her administration hopes will eventually lead to improvements in student achievement. New Mexico consistently ranks at or near the bottom when it comes to

education, and Martinez said during a visit to Zuni Elementary School in Albuquerque that increasing pay for starting teachers by $2,000 will help make the state’s recruitment efforts more competitive. If approved by the Legislature, starting pay for a teaching job would be $34,000 per year, and any teacher currently earning less would receive a raise. “Starting teacher salaries are too

low in New Mexico, so we need to raise them again,” Martinez said in a statement. Last year, the state budget included an increase in the minimum salary Susana for new teachers to Martinez $32,000 per year. The latest proposal would cost the state an estimated $6.7 million to raise the base salary again. The governor’s request will have to be hammered out by the Legislature

when it meets in January for a 60-day session. Lawmakers have already warned state agencies to revamp their budget requests since a revenue forecast released this week shows the state will have less money to work with due to a drop in oil prices. While no cuts are expected, key lawmakers have said state spending is expected to remain flat. The Martinez administration also wants to expand a mentorship program for principals to include teachers. The $2.5 million program would partner high-performing teachers with educators who need help. Teachers would

have to apply for the program and a stipend would be paid to both mentors and those teachers they’re helping. The mentorship program for principals was initiated last year and state education officials say more than half of participating schools improved their school’s letter grade at least one level. Martinez’s plan also calls for $2.3 million to help teachers purchase classroom supplies. The proposal is modeled after efforts in other states where teachers receive a $100 debit card for classroom materials. Teachers would provide receipts to account for the expenditures.

‘For Sale’ sign remains a fixture despite decision to pull property off market By Anne Constable The New Mexican

wo months after the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry of the Valley of Santa Fe voted to decline an offer to buy the group’s downtown Santa Fe building and said it was taking the property off the market, the “For Sale” sign is still posted out front. John Adams, treasurer of the board of the new holding corporation formed after the vote, acknowledged this week that the group is “well aware that having the sign there creates a lot of questions in people’s minds.” So is the building for sale, or isn’t it?

The answer is not entirely clear. In October, Adams said the group’s new board believed the 100-year-old pink Moorish Revival-style landmark could become selfsustaining by continuing to rent to nonprofits and other entities for fundraisers, concerts and theatrical events and did not want to sell it. This week, he said the new corporation’s goal was to “do what we were doing better.” Among ideas under discussion are recruiting more volunteers and hiring more staff or contractors to improve marketing the facility as an event venue. The property was put on the market in 2013 for $8.4 million by the group’s previous board, which determined that membership

dues and revenues from renting the building could not cover the maintenance needed to keep the center open. However, the temple did not sell at that price. Adams said this week that the sale sign is “part of a previous agreement,” and “at this point, the listing agreement is still in effect.” The 44,000-square-foot structure on about 2 acres at the corner of Paseo de Peralta and Bishops Lodge Road is still advertised on the website of Sotheby’s International Realty with an asking price of $6.9 million. Maureen Mestas, the broker, did not return calls seeking comment.

State police late Wednesday identified two officers involved in the gunshot wounding of a Santa Fe man Friday following an attempt to arrest him for violating his probation in a burglary case. A news release said Jessica Sanchez of the Santa Fe Police Department and Chris Balkcom of the New Mexico Department of Corrections each played a part in the shooting of Kevin Chavez, 23. It wasn’t clear which officer shot the man. Sanchez has worked with the city police department for five years, and Balkcom has worked with the Probation and Parole Division for four years, the statement said. Alex Tomlin, a spokeswoman for the Corrections Department, said she couldn’t comment on the case, but she believed Balkcom was still on administrative leave following the incident. Celina Espinoza, a spokeswoman for the Santa Fe Police Department, couldn’t be reached for comment. A Santa Fe police officer suffered a minor injury and Chavez reportedly was shot in the shoulder Friday during the incident on Juan de Dios, a small, unpaved road off West Alameda Street. Police have released few details, but a city police statement said shots “were fired,” apparently injuring Chavez before he fled in a white Ford E150 van. A pursuit ended on Cordova Road near Cerrillos Road. Tom Clark, Chavez’s lawyer, said he expected his client to survive his injuries. The New Mexican

Boyd touts district successes but says work isn’t finished In his annual State of the Schools address Wednesday evening, Superintendent Joel Boyd praised Santa Fe Public Schools for marked improvements such as a decreased dropout rate and an increased graduation rate. But he noted the school district still has much room for improvement, given that the math and reading skills of fewer than half the students are at the appropriate level. “What we need is continued support,” Boyd told a packed hall at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center. “We have a plan. If you fund it, we’ll get results for our kids.” Dignitaries such as state Rep.-elect Steve McQueen and school board President Steve Carrillo were among the hundreds in attendance. A high school choir performed a rendition of Van Morrison’s “Brown Eyed Girl” and later John Lennon’s “Imagine” as attendees filed into the convention center. Carrillo presented a brief video that extolled the school system’s recent successes, such as the introduction of programs to reduce the dropout rate, the

Santa Fe would develop an “action plan” to combat climate change and a “vision” for energy use under legislation introduced Wednesday by City Councilor Patti Bushee. The resolution, which Bushee unveiled at a City Hall news conference, seemed to spark a bit of a leadership clash with Mayor Javier Gonzales, who defeated Bushee for the mayor’s job in the March municipal election. Gonzales, who has created his own Climate Action Task Force, said he’s far from ready to support Bush- Patti ee’s initiative, based on language he Bushee saw in the resolution. The mayor said “there’s no way” he would support any effort that he says “locks out the community” from the process of developing an energy strategy for the city. An initial version of the resolution made no mention of opportunities for public input. But in the latest version, released Wednesday, the public will Javier be allowed to provide “information Gonzales and materials” at public meetings. The resolution, which has several co-sponsors, including Councilors Signe Lindell and Ron Trujillo, would designate a three-person team to draft proposals with help from the city’s renewable energy planner. The team would include Douglas Howe, a former member of the state Public Regulation Commission; Steven Michel, chief counsel for the Energy Program of Western Resource Advocates, an environmental law and policy center; and Marcos Martinez, an assistant city attorney who handles utility matters.

After a search, they hired Boyd, an assistant superintendent for the School District of Philadelphia, to replace Gutierrez in summer 2012. In August 2014, the school board approved a measure to extend Boyd’s contract an additional two years and raise his pay to $180,000 from $171,000. He used the added pay to set up a scholarship program for needy students.

On Wednesday morning, New Mexico Film Office Director Nick Maniatis announced that Warner Bros. Pictures’ Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, starring Affleck and Cavill in the title roles and directed by Zack Snyder, successfully completed production in New Mexico.

The film completed its principal photography in New Mexico, after shooting in Michigan and Illinois. The production company estimates it hired 200 area crew members during the course of the production. “We are thrilled that the towns of Playas and Taos, New Mexico, could play host to such a large-scale production. In fact, they built one of the largest set pieces in New Mexico film history,” Maniatis said. “We are pleased with the number of New Mexican residents and suppliers that the show was able to utilize during their stay.” In the film Cavill, reprises his Man of Steel role as Clark Kent/ Superman, and Affleck makes his debut as Bruce Wayne/Batman. The film also stars Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, with Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane returning from Man of Steel; Jeremy Irons portraying Alfred, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, and Holly Hunter in a role created for the film.

‘Birdman’ leads Screen Actors Guild nominations By Lindsey Bahr The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — The dark show-business comedy Birdman soared with a leading four Screen Actors Guild Award nominations, including best ensemble cast. Birdman lead Michael Keaton was recognized for his work as the washed-up Hollywood hero Riggan Thomson. Emma Stone, who played Thomson’s troubled daughter, and Edward Norton, as an arrogant theater star, also picked up supporting nods. Following with three nominations each were the comingof-age tale Boyhood, the Alan Turing biopic The Imitation Game, and the Stephen Hawking story The Theory of Everything. Patricia Arquette and Ethan Hawke both earned nods Wednesday for their performances in Boyhood, which spanned the groundbreaking 12-year shoot.

The Theory of Everything, a romance-spanning look at the lives of Stephen and Jane Hawking, had lead acting nominations for Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones. The other true-life British genius biopic, The Imitation Game, landed Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley nominations for their portrayals of World War II-era British logicians Alan Turing and Joan Clarke. Lead actress film nominees joining Felicity Jones are Julianne Moore in Still Alice; Reese Witherspoon in Wild; Rosamund Pike in Gone Girl; and Jennifer Aniston in Cake. In the supporting category, Oscar favorite J.K. Simmons snagged a spot for Whiplash. Robert Duvall was recognized for The Judge, Meryl Streep for Into the Woods and Naomi Watts for St. Vincent. The SAG Awards will be presented Jan. 25 when Debbie Reynolds will be honored with a lifetime achievement award.

Uber blocked from Brazil to California By Serena Saitto

NEW YORK — Uber Technologies has hit an increasing pileup of regulatory and legal hurdles this week, with its mobile application challenged from India to California. The car-booking app Tuesday was sued by the district attorneys of Los Angeles and San Francisco over claims that it makes false assurances to customers about drivers’ background checks. That came after a judge in Spain banned Uber from operating in the country. Earlier this week, Uber was sued by the city of Portland, Ore., for allegedly violating local laws, while Rio de Janeiro declared the service illegal and the Netherlands halted ride-sharing service UberPop. In addition, New Delhi banned Uber this week after one of the service’s drivers was accused of raping a passenger. “The-low cost premise is starting to look doubtful,” said Erik Gordon, who teaches entrepreneurship at the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan. “If the lower costs arise from insufficient screening and supervision of drivers and no insurance, the advantage is not sustainable and the valuation could collapse.” The developments amount to one of the heavier twoday periods of anti-Uber activity this year, as the San Francisco-based app runs into established transportation industries. They follow an upswing last week when Uber announced $1.2 billion in new funding at a $40 billion valuation, making it the most highly valued U.S. technology startup

with a market capitalization greater than Tesla Motors Inc. and Hertz Global Holdings Inc. In October, Uber’s vice president of policy and strategy, David Plouffe, declared that the company was undergoing a period of momentum — which he dubbed “ubermentum” — after Washington let ride-sharing service UberX operate in the city and following regulatory breakthroughs in Colorado and Illinois. “There’s some ubermentum here,” Plouffe said. “We think we should be regulated, but some of these laws go back 50 to 60 years ago and don’t work now.” Plouffe, a former top adviser to President Barack Obama, added, “What happened in D.C. should be a model elsewhere.” Uber has long been controversial because the service, which lets people hail rides from their smartphones, has disrupted long-established taxi and limousine services. Founded in 2009 by Chief Executive Officer Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp, Uber has expanded to more than 250 cities in 50 countries, roiling the transportation markets in those locations. Uber is opening in a new city at the rate of one every other day. Earlier this year, Uber and similar services faced protests across Europe from taxi drivers. Uber is also coming to grips with regulatory challenges in Thailand, Colombia and U.S. states including Nevada. The company has grappled with other controversies, as well. Last month, Uber executive Emil Michael made comments about how the company was willing to pry into journalists’ private lives, triggering questions about its data-privacy policies. Uber has since hired a law firm to conduct an internal privacy review.

Studies find comets are not the culprits The mystery of the source of Earth’s water deepens By Seth Borenstein The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The mystery of where Earth’s water came from got murkier Wednesday when some astronomers essentially eliminated one of the chief suspects: comets. Over the past few months, the European Space Agency’s Rosetta space probe closely examined the type of comet that some scientists theorized could have brought water to our planet 4 billion years ago. It found water, but the wrong kind. It was too heavy. One of the first scientific studies from the Rosetta mission found that the comet’s water contains more of a hydrogen isotope called deuterium than water on Earth does. “The question is who brought this water: Was it comets or was it something else?” asked Kathrin Altwegg of the University of Bern in Switzerland, lead author of a study published in the journal Science. Something else, probably asteroids, Altwegg concluded.

But others disagree. The findings from Rosetta’s mission to the duck-shaped comet 67P/ChuryumovGerasimenko complicate not just the question of the origin of Earth’s water but our understanding of comets. Until now, scientists pretty much sorted comets into two types: near and far. The near ones, sometimes called the Jupiter family, originally come from the Kuiper Belt outside Neptune and Pluto. The far ones hail from the Oort Cloud, which is much farther out. In 1986, a spacecraft came within about 400 miles of Halley’s comet, an Oort Cloud comet, and analyzed its water. It proved to be heavier than Earth’s water. But three years ago, scientists examined the water in a Kuiper Belt comet, Hartley 2, and it was a perfect match for Earth’s water, so the comet theory was back, stronger than ever, Altwegg said. The comet visited by Rosetta is a Kuiper Belt comet, but its water was even heavier than Halley’s, Altwegg said. That shows that Kuiper Belt comets aren’t as uniform as thought, and it once again complicates the issue of Earth’s water. “That probably rules out Kuiper Belt comets from bringing water to Earth,” she said.

MONTPELIER, Vt. — Rotisserie chicken, bacon, dog toys, more than a dozen volunteers and even a psychic have not been enough to find Murphy, an elusive golden retriever whose owner’s five-month search for the beloved animal has captivated one mountainous area of Vermont. Neighbors have pulled together to try to find Murphy since he was spooked by a car accident and ran off June 29, going door-to-door with posters, looking for tracks and setting out food and traps. He’s been spotted numerous times, in backyards and on trail cameras in Waterbury Center, about 8 miles from the crash. But any time someone gets close, the 3-year-old cagey canine darts off. “I definitely think he’s still in the fight-or-flight mode because he seems to run from everybody,” said his owner,

A sanctuary and hospice for elderly dogs, poultry and horses is celebrating the holidays with a tree-lighting ceremony and meditation. The annual celebration at Kindred Spirits Animal Sanctuary is from 4 to 7 p.m. Saturday. A tour of the sanctuary, which focuses on elderly care and hospice, begins at 4:30 p.m.; the tree lighting is set for 5:30 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. Hot cider and healthy refreshments will be served. The sanctuary is south of Santa Fe at 3749-A N.M. 14, a short distance from the Lone Butte General Store. For more information, call 471-5366 or visit the sanctuary’s website at www. kindredspiritsnm.org.

24-year-old Kirstin Campbell, of Morrisville. Campbell had Murphy with her when her vehicle went off the road and hit a tree in Stowe. He fled the accident. The search has gotten the attention of local media and members of a popular online community forum. At one point they enlisted a Massachusetts-based pet psychic who claims to be able to communicate with animals. The psychic told them by phone that Murphy was on a parallel path to a road where they had just lost track of him and that she was seeing his name. At the end of October and in mid-November, Murphy was spotted on two trail cameras in Waterbury Center, giving Campbell hope that he’s still out there and they’re on the right track.

In brief Psychologist: Teen competent Jacob Martinez, 15, whom authorities accuse of participating in the rape of an 18-year-old Pojoaque girl during an April party near Española, is competent to stand trial regardless of his low IQ , a psychologist hired by prosecutors testified Wednesday. District Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer will hear testimony from a psychologist hired by the defense at a later date before ruling on whether Martinez will have to stand trial. Jacob Martinez and codefendants Kayla Coriz, 19, and Irin K. Martinez, 16, are charged in the rape, which police said took place at a home after a night of drinking. Authorities said the victim underwent two surgeries and spent a week in the hospital while recovering from injuries after the incident. Martinez’s lawyer, Mark Dickinson, said the psychologist he hired to evaluate Jacob Martinez determined the teen has an IQ of 67 and is not competent to stand trial. However, the psycholo-

gist hired by the prosecution testified during a Wednesday hearing that the defendant understands the charges against him and understands the court proceedings.

Court clears way for recount The New Mexico Supreme Court has cleared the way for a recount to begin in the race for state land commissioner. The court on Wednesday lifted the stay it had imposed after reviewing a petition filed by incumbent Democrat Ray Powell over concerns that his campaign had with the procedures for the recount. The court denied the petition, a move that came after Powell and state elections officials negotiated an agreement over how to conduct the count. One issue was how many ballots would be used to calibrate the vote tabulating machines. 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. State officials say the recount will begin Thursday. Staff and wire reports

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.

No forgiveness for Abu Ghraib torture BETHLEHEM, Pa spent this semester teaching creative writing at Lehigh University. I’ve been a soldier, a police officer and an interrogator. So hearing students call me “Professor” and assigning homework was a significant change of pace. But the course’s title, Writing War, kept me from straying too far from the memories that have haunted me over the last decade. I am grateful to Lehigh for the opportunity to teach the course. The school’s willingness to put a veteran in the classroom is the very thing this country needs to be doing in order to collectively process what the last 13 years of war have wrought. But teaching a class about war reminded me daily that I am no college professor. I was an interrogator at Abu Ghraib. I tortured. Abu Ghraib dominates every minute of every day for me. In early 2004, workers inside Abu Ghraib were scrambling to cover the murals of Saddam Hussein with a coat of yellowish paint. I accidentally leaned up against one of those walls. I still wear the black fleece jacket with the faded stain. I still smell the paint. I still hear the sounds. I still see the men we called detainees. Last month, my students at Lehigh read The Things They Carried by Tim O’Brien. During class I talked about the things American soldiers carried in Iraq. I brought in a cigar box filled with the trinkets and mementos I had purchased from Iraqi vendors at Baghdad International Airport. I brought along the black fleece jacket. When I asked the students to share their memories of the release in 2004 of the Abu Ghraib photographs showing the abuse of detainees, I received the sort of looks students give when they think they should know something

OUR VIEW

Teachers need better salaries

and are too embarrassed to admit they don’t. Most avoided eye contact, some gave a sort of noncommittal nod, while others went for pure honesty and just yawned. It was my first encounter with a generation that doesn’t consider the release of the Abu Ghraib photographs to be a critical moment in their lives. I don’t fault them. They were in elementary school at the time. It’s something for history books. It’s something their parents talk about. It’s an answer on a test. As I looked at their blank faces, I realized I could let myself feel a powerful sense of relief. Abu Ghraib will fade. My transgressions will be forgotten. But only if I allow it. I’ve published articles in newspapers detailing our abusive treatment of Iraqi detainees. I’ve done interviews on TV and radio. I’ve spoken to groups from Amnesty International, and I’ve confessed everything to a lawyer from the Department of Justice and two agents from the Army’s Criminal Investigation Com-

mand. I’ve said everything there is to say. It’s not hard to pretend the best thing to do is put it all behind me. I stood before the class that day tempted to let apathy soften the painful truths of history. I no longer had to assume the role of the former interrogator at Abu Ghraib. I was a professor at Lehigh University. I could grade papers and say smart things in class. My son could ride the bus to school and talk to his friends about what his father does for a living. I was someone to be proud of. But I’m not. I was an interrogator at Abu Ghraib. I tortured. Eventually I encouraged the students to track down the photos from Abu Ghraib and record their reactions in creative essays. We spent time talking about the abuses that took place, and I even exposed them to some of my own writing. They still called me “Professor,” but I suspect they no longer thought of me as one. This week, the Senate released its torture report.

Many people were surprised by what it contained: accounts of waterboardings far more frequent than what had previously been reported, weeklong sleep deprivation, a horrific and humiliating procedure called “rectal rehydration.” I’m not surprised. I assure you there is more; much remains redacted. Most Americans haven’t read the report. Most never will. But it stands as a permanent reminder of the country we once were. In some future college classroom, a professor will require her students to read about the things this country did in the early years of the 21st century. She’ll assign portions of the Senate torture report. There will be blank stares and apathetic yawns. There will be essays and writing assignments. The students will come to know that this country isn’t always something to be proud of. Eric Fair, an Army veteran, was a contract interrogator in Iraq in 2004. He wrote this for The New York Times.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Zia Road Station could cause problems

he editorial writer at The New Mexican (“Move forward on Zia station,” Dec. 5) and Kate Collins (“Welcome Zia station,” Letters to the editor, Dec. 5) — the resident living west of the station — need to take a few walks to the Zia Road Station from the east and west. They are very difficult and dangerous walks if you’re physically fit and impossible if you have mobility issues. A “kiss and ride” station sounds nice, but how much traffic will be added to the intersections at Galisteo and Zia, Rodeo and Sawmill Roads (Galisteo is the only access road to the station)? How many problems will result from cars and buses dropping off and picking up passengers? What is being done to protect the streets in nearby neighborhoods from people who want to park and attempt the walk to the station? By the way, SF Brown Inc.’s initial development plans around the station exceeded 500,000 square feet (about the size of the Santa Fe Place mall), not a few businesses. Alan Richardson

No torture As the news media rehashes old arguments about the use of torture, please be aware that neither the U.S. nor international law (specifically, the U.N. Convention Against Torture, to which the U.S. is party) allows for an exception to the prohibition against torture on the grounds that “it is effective,” “it works” or similar arguments. The prohibition against torture is absolute. Donna Gomien

Santa Fe

Cost for patients The plan by Christus St. Vincent (the only hospital in Santa Fe) of remodeling to an all-private room facilty is questionable. The cost of a private room to patients has not been mentioned. Private rooms have always been more expensive than semi-private rooms. Medicare’s manual states that it covers “inpatient semiprivate rooms.” The cost of these rooms is of extreme importance to the general public and how it will affect Medicare patients and others. It appears “comfort and better care” is really about Christus’ financial gain. Pat Bartlett

Santa Fe

e’re not going to look a gift horse in the mouth — we’re glad that Santa Fe Public Schools will receive $3.8 million to help pay teachers and principals more. The grant, from the state Public Education Department, is part of an initiative to reward effective teachers and principals, whether as individuals or as a group at particular schools. Yet Grace Mayer, president of the National Education Association-Santa Fe, is correct in pointing out that the extra pay is relying too much on test scores to decide who is effective. Santa Fe did not want to emphasize test scores, but the state required it — and since the state is providing the grant, it sets the rules. Now, union and district negotiators will have to figure out how to hand out the money. Left out of this entire discussion is the most important point: New Mexico teachers don’t make enough money. A report issued earlier this month, “Smart Money, What Teachers Make and How Long It Takes and What It Buys Them,” showed that New Mexico’s starting salary of $32,000 is one of the lowest in the nation. The report was published by a Washington, D.C.-based think tank and teacher advocacy organization, the National Council on Teacher Quality. Gov. Susana Martinez on Wednesday announced she wants to add another $2,000 to starting pay, bringing it to $34,000 a year. Her proposal is part of an $11.5 million package that also includes offering mentors to help struggling teachers and money to help teachers pay for classroom supplies. While we agree that starting pay is too low, so are salaries for experienced teachers. The report also shows that New Mexico’s top salaries — about $55,000 to $59,000 a year — don’t compare that well to maximum salaries elsewhere. The average maximum nationwide is about $75,000, with top pay in some areas around $100,000 a year. What New Mexico does do well is advance teachers to higher salaries quickly, with teachers here getting close to maximum in six or seven years, compared to an average of 24 years around the nation. Money can’t solve every education crisis, but the reality is that a decent salary will attract more of the best and the brightest candidates. So long as many smart young people can go make thousands of dollars more in starting pay by choosing science, finance or law, they will not choose teaching. When they do decide to teach, many will leave to make more money. It’s important to find ways to reward success. But it’s also important to improve the base pay, not just for beginning teachers but for seasoned classroom professionals — all without making teachers jump through more hoops. When the Legislature meets in January, we hope that starting pay is just the start of discussions. In the meantime, Santa Fe should distribute this windfall as broadly as possible.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Dec. 11, 1914: Artesia — A mammoth sweet potato, weighing over 11 pounds, is being displayed here this week by J.L. Taylor. The potato was grown by his son, Steve Taylor, near Hobbs. No irrigation was used. Washington, D.C. — Officials are determined to completely stop the Mexicans’ firing across the border at Naco, Ariz. Gen. Bliss this morning wires the town is quiet. An official warning was sent to Carranza and Gutierrez last night, that they must control the troops on the border and prevent the endangering of the American town. It will probably be effective. It is believed both will order the commanders from the border. If the firing doesn’t cease, officials here think the shelling of the Mexican factions will be done by American artillery. Dec. 11, 1964: Raton — The City Commission declared a moratorium on all parking meters until Dec. 28. The action was taken to accommodate Christmas shoppers. Some merchants put Christmas wrapping paper over the meters in front of their stores. In a similar period a year ago, $450 was collected from the city’s 320 meters. Dec. 11, 1989: Bosque del Apache, N.M. — The stately, snowwhite bird stands head and shoulders above its gray cousins searching for grain among the frost-tipped stubble of the dark gold New Mexico field. The “whooper” is alone in the sea of sandhill cranes, but the smaller birds give the adopted flock member room and respect. The already uncommon sight of an endangered whooping crane in the wetlands of New Mexico’s middle Rio Grande Valley has become even rarer in the last few years. The cranes could be gone from the state forever by 1992.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Husband, wife need to build trust Dear Annie: I have been with my husband for 10 years, and we have two children. Two years ago, I found out that he was bothering a 19-year-old girl. He was 30 at the time. We separated over this, but six months ago, we got back together. Now when I ask about this young woman, his story keeps changing. He says they were just friends, and then he says he tried getting together with her after we separated. He admits he still cares about her. Here’s the current problem: This woman has a young child and uses the same daycare center that I do. I see her whenever I drop off my children. I jump through hoops to make sure my husband isn’t the one dropping off the kids, because I don’t want him to run into her. This situation is driving me crazy, but my family members tell me I should stay with my husband because we have kids and because he quit drinking. So do I stay and look the other way, or should I leave? — Only Questions Dear Questions: You have another option. For your marriage to succeed, you need to know that your husband will not pursue this young woman, and he hasn’t responded in a way that merits your trust. Because you have children, please make an effort to work on this before giving up. Ask your husband to go with you for counseling. If he refuses, go without him. Your doctor or clergyperson can refer you. Dear Annie: I am a veteran. I served proudly and now have a decent job in the civilian workforce. I appreciate everything that our country does to honor our nation’s veterans and their families, from the parades and ceremonies to the business discounts and free meals. But I often wonder why veterans are not provided with a “holiday” from work on Veterans Day to attend these ceremonies, have lunch or just spend time with their families. To attend these functions, veterans must apply for vacation time. Many therefore choose not to attend. I realize some businesses do provide their employees with the day off, but

they are in the minority. If Veterans Day honors this nation’s veterans, why can’t we change the law by giving veterans the day off without penalty? — Answered the Call Dear Answered: It does seem logical that those being honored would get the day off. Veterans Day is a federal holiday, meaning most government offices are closed, no mail is delivered and federal workers either get the day off or are paid for working a holiday. Many non-governmental businesses also close on Veterans Day, but it is not mandatory. We suggest you talk to your boss about this for next year and see whether some accommodation can be worked out. Dear Annie: I wanted to respond to “Bewildered in California,” whose father manipulates others into giving him freebies. I have a friend with similar behaviors. I’ve seen her take cans of soda, cookies, napkins and salt packets and stick them in the large bag she carries. She once took five packets of identical material at conferences. In the 20 years I have known her, I’ve never been invited to her home. I suspect she is a hoarder. She’s always talking about getting her money’s worth and manipulates others into getting freebies for her. If they won’t, she claims they don’t care about her. Three years ago, I took her to an event requiring an overnight stay. When I arrived back home, I had hotel towels in my suitcase that I had not put there. I now avoid getting into situations where I might be embarrassed by her behavior. I’m convinced this is an illness, but she will never seek help. To mention it, even kindly, would only mean she has lost another good friend. — Still Care Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Scherzer could be seeking more than Kershaw By Ronald Blum The Associated Press

SAN DIEGO — Clayton Kershaw is considered the top pitcher in baseball, with three Cy Young Awards in four years for the Los Angeles Dodgers, an NL Most Valuable Player award and a $215 million, seven-year contract. Max Scherzer may be seeking an even bigger deal as his talks on the free-agent market move forward. “I’m not sure Kershaw is relevant,” agent Scott Boras said Wednesday at the winter meetings, “because he’s not a free agent.” Jon Lester became the first top-level, freeagent starting pitcher to reach an agreement this offseason, a $155 million, six-year deal with the Chicago Cubs that came together late Tuesday and still must be finalized.

Scherzer turned down an offer from Detroit last March that would have paid $144 million from 2015-20. Kershaw has the largest contract for a pitcher in total dollars and has the sport’s highest average salary at $30.7 million. “The prominent pitchers that have signed, [Justin] Verlander or [Felix] Hernandez or Kershaw, were not free-agent players,” Boras said. “And certainly if you put a performance like Kershaw into a free-agent market, you’re going to get a much, much different calibration of value.” Scherzer’s negotiations figure to stretch on for weeks or even into next year. But other players were on the move or close to switching teams. In trade talks, the Dodgers were trying

Capital, Prep soccer teams recognized at council meeting By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

anta Fe made soccer history last month, and it may be just the start of more recognition for the city. The Capital and Santa Fe Prep boys soccer teams — which won state championships in Class AAAAA and A-AAAA, respectively, on Nov. 8 — were honored at Wednesday night’s City Council meeting. Both teams brought the hardware back to the City Different for the first time since Santa Fe Prep’s championship in 1982.

It wasn’t that this year was a freak occurrence, but the result of growing interest in the sport by all ages. “It shows that Santa Fe is up-and-coming and is an acclaimed power over the whole state of New Mexico,” Capital head coach Eugene Doyle said. “There’s just so much more enthusiasm for the sport. The younger kids are seeing us win, and hopefully they want to do the same. It’s easy to coach when the kids come in with experience.” Both teams received other accolades at the end of the season. Doyle was named AAAAA Coach of the Year by state coaches and senior forward Jesus Garcia was named Player of the Year for leading AAAAA with 27 goals and converting the penalty shot that got the Jaguars past Chaparral in the quarterfinals of the state tournament.

During the City Council meeting, Garcia was given an autographed soccer ball by Mayor Javier Gonzales for his accomplishment, even though he feels like it wasn’t his alone. “To be honest, I don’t feel like player of the year,” Garcia said. “[My teammates] are player of the year. This ball is for all of us.” Prep senior defender Keenan Amer was named the A-AAAA Player of the Year. These kinds of awards are usually reserved for high scorers like Garcia, so Amer said it was special for other coaches to acknowledge his defensive value. “I think it’s cool to show that you don’t have to be the flashiest player out there to get recognized, and it’s not all about scoring goals,” Amer said. “It’s

So, who’s up for watching 14 hours of basketball? Don’t count David Rodriguez in the group, but the Santa Fe High head boys basketball coach is thankful for the exposure the newly christened Bobby Rodriguez Capital City Tournament will get this weekend. Thanks to the effort of Joe Abeyta, the tournament will be seen from Thursday’s opening tip between Pojoaque Valley and Capital for the opening-round girls game at 8 a.m. Thursday to Saturday night’s tournament finals on television, as well as online. All eight first-round games, the tournament semifinals and championships will be shown live on Public Access Channel 16 on Comcast and streamed at NFHSNetwork.com, which is run by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS), with the purchase of a $9.95 day pass. Abeyta, who is the multimedia manager with the city of Santa Fe, said each game can be seen for free at NFHSNetwork.com after 72 hours. That doesn’t mean Rodriguez will be glued to his TV set or computer, though. “I don’t think anyone wants to watch 14 hours of basketball,” Rodriguez said, “but you get to pick and

said after Mariota and the Ducks routed the Cardinal 45-16 this season, summing up: “He’s special.” Mariota goes into Saturday’s Heisman Trophy ceremony as the clear front runner. Here’s how he did it: Mariota set a Pac-12 record this season with 53 total touchdowns, including a school-record 38 via pass, 14 keepers and one TD reception. He leads the nation with 10 games of four or more touchdowns this season. His 38 touchdown passes are also an Oregon record. Overall, Mariota has thrown for an Oregon record 3,783 yards and just two interceptions, and he’s the Ducks’ secondleading rusher with 669 yards. The mobile junior from Hawaii has thrown for at least one touchdown in each of the first 39 games he’s played in at Oregon, an FBS-level record. He’s only lost four games as Oregon’s starter. He has set seven different career and season Oregon records, and his 129 total

Unassuming Mariota puts up brag-worthy season By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota drops back to pass against Arizona during the second half of a Pac-12 Conference championship game Dec. 5 in Santa Clara, Calif. Oregon won the game, 51-13. BEN MARGOT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

About the flashiest thing quarterback Marcus Mariota has done off the field all season is wear a T-shirt boldly emblazoned with the word “Success.” His showy moments have instead come during games for the playoff-bound Oregon Ducks: His touchdown flip against Wyoming, a creative on-the-run shovel pass against Michigan State, or a perfectly faked handoff for a keeper in the Pac-12 championship game against Arizona. Spartans coach Mark Dantonio summed it up: “Mariota is an outstanding quarterback. What he does is lead. What he shows is toughness. And what he does is create.” Like Dantonio, all of Oregon and Mariota’s opponents this season became big fans. “He’s tough to contain. You put pressure on him and he doesn’t feel it. He escapes the pocket, throws the ball down the field,” Stanford coach David Shaw

Polee, O’Brien key in No. 18 SDSU’s comeback win The Associated Press

SAN DIEGO — Dwayne Polee II hit a tying 3-pointer, and JJ O’Brien made a go-ahead putback as No. 18 San Diego State rallied 18 SDSU 60 with a 19-10 closing Long Beach 59 run to beat Long Beach State 60-59 Wednesday night. Polee scored 16 points for SDSU (7-2), which trailed by eight with 8½ minutes left following the second of two 3-pointers by Mike Caffey. NO. 5 WISCONSIN 93, MILWAUKEE 54 In Milwaukee, Frank Kaminsky scored 18 points, and Sam Dekker added 17 as fifth-ranked Wisconsin continued its dominance over in-state

rival Wisconsin-Milwaukee with an easy victory. The Badgers (9-1) extended their winning streak over the Panthers to 22 consecutive games and their series lead to 31-1, completing a five-day Milwaukee sweep. Wisconsin defeated Marquette 49-38 on Saturday. NO. 10 KANSAS 75, GEORGETOWN 70 In Washington, Brannen Greene went 5 for 5 from 3-point range and scored a career-high 19 points as No. 10 Kansas made a basketball statement with a win over Georgetown, even as Hoyas players were making a societal statement by wearing “I CAN’T BREATHE” T-shirts for the national anthem. Greene scored 16 in the second half, including two free throws that helped

clinch the game in the final minute. Frank Mason added 14 points, and Perry Ellis had 13 points and 10 rebounds for the Jayhawks (7-1), who have won six straight. NO. 13 UTAH 65, BYU 61 In Provo, Utah, Delon Wright had 16 points and 11 rebounds to help No. 13 Utah beat BYU. Wright scored nine points in the second half and sparked a 10-0 run that helped the Utes (7-1) overcome a 31-30 halftime deficit. Wright also had two steals and was 6 of 7 on free throws. NO. 23 NORTHERN IOWA 65, DENVER 55 In Denver, Seth Tuttle finished with 12 points and Deon Mitchell scored nine of his 11 in a first half where

No. 23 Northern Iowa missed just two shots from the floor, helping the Panthers cruise past Denver and move to 9-0 for the third time in school history. NO. 12 OHIO ST. 97, HIGH POINT 43 In Columbus, Ohio, Kam Williams scored a career-high 23 points, including 13 in a row for Ohio State in the first half, to lead the 12th-ranked Buckeyes to a victory over High Point. D’Angelo Russell had 18 points, nine rebounds and five assists for the Buckeyes (7-1), who hit 35 of 56 shots from the field for 63 percent. Jae’Sean Tate scored 12, Shannon Scott added 11 points and seven assists, and Sam Thompson scored 10. NO. 1 KENTUCKY 56, COLUMBIA 46 In Lexington, Ky., top-ranked Ken-

tucky gave up the first 11 points, still trailed at halftime and finally shook off a slow start to beat pesky Columbia. In a college basketball season already marked by several big upsets, the Wildcats (10-0) got their toughest challenge yet from the Ivy League Lions. Columbia led for nearly 27 minutes before Aaron Harrison and the Wildcats took control. NO. 19 MARYLAND 67, NC CENTRAL 56 In College Park, Md., Richaud Pack scored 17 points, Jake Layman added 15 and No. 19 Maryland took control in the first half before coasting past North Carolina Central. The Terrapins (9-1) led 14-12 before using a 21-2 run to go up by 21.

Waldorf crushes ATC Rob Clifford wants opposing teams to pick their poison. Do you want to deal with the scoring efficiency of Augie Ciofalo or would you rather have the stifling defense of Ivan Davila? Academy for Technology and the Classics got a taste of both on Wednesday. The Santa Fe Waldorf boys basketball team used 33 points from Ciofalo and nine steals from Davila to crush the Phoenix

72-45 in a nondistrict game at the Fort Marcy Complex. The Wolves (4-2) led 28-21 at halftime, but they outscored ATC (2-5) 28-7 in the third quarter to separate themselves. “We blew it open in the third quarter,” Santa Fe Waldorf head coach Rob Clifford said. “We really came together as a ball club. It was definitely the best quarter of basketball we had all year.” Ciofalo scored 20 points in the second half to lead the charge. Teammate Sean

Champions: Doyle might return next year Continued from Page B-1 about what you mean to the team and how hard you play out there.” His head coach, Hersch Wilson, was also given coach of the year honors. Like Doyle, he gave all the credit to his team. “Well, it shows you have good players,” Doyle said. “A coach is only as good as his players, but it’s nice to get the recognition, because it took eight years.” “Honestly, soccer is such a player-centric sport, so I think the honor is really for the guys,” Wilson added. “I just love being out there with the guys.” It’s been more than a month since both teams were named champions, but the accomplishment is barely starting to settle in for coaches and players alike.

“I was looking through pictures the other day and just thinking about it,” Amer said. “I would say that it’s just starting to sink in. I’ve been playing with all those guys since we were so young and we always talked about winning a state championship, and it always seemed like a dream. We knew since the beginning of the season that we could compete with anyone, and it’s insane that we ended up winning.” Capital was able to win the title despite its players facing issues off the field. Doyle has had to deal with players taking bigger roles at home. Last year’s leading scorer, Jason Alarcon, often missed practice because he had to work full time to help support his family. Despite these issues, Doyle has only made Capital stronger in his eight years at the helm.

“All of our players are from the south side of town, and it’s a lower socioeconomic bracket,” Doyle said. “A lot of them come from different family structures than other families do. Kids are torn between work and family and soccer, and they have a lot more on their plate. It’s just a different part of town, and a lot of the kids have to help raise their little brothers or sisters and they don’t see their parents as much because they’re always working. It makes it challenging.” Doyle will have to face the same problem next year, if he chooses to return, but one thing he doesn’t have to worry about is rebuilding the program after losing eight seniors, including Garcia and 6-foot-4 goalkeeper Rene Arroyo. Doyle did not want to comment

on whether he would return next year, saying he would let The New Mexican know “in a while.” “We’re still just as strong,” he said. “We just have to fill some of those key roles, but we’re looking just as strong every year.” Wilson said the Blue Griffins have a shot at repeating too, and like Doyle, he believes Prep can compete for a state championship for several years. The Jaguars and Blue Griffins might have to keep competing for championships, because they both started something that might become the norm for the city. “I hope we started a new tradition here, and hopefully it will continue to get carried on,” Amer said.” I think it can be the start of a great thing for Santa Fe.”

Capital: Four Santa Fe teams are featured Continued from Page B-1 choose the games you want to watch or parts of them. Later on, you can watch games that you missed.” The idea percolated when Abeyta, who also does work for the local high school sports and activities website ProView Networks that is a part of the NFHS Network, approached Rodriguez about it when the Santa Fe High girls basketball team was being honored by the city for its state title last spring. “I just felt like, ‘Hey, we got to do something up here,’ ” Abeyta said. “I just went up to him and said, ‘How would you feel if we came in and televised and webcasted the games?’” Abeyta and his brother Aaron Abeyta have done occasional broadcasts of the tournament and prep football games in the city over the last seven years, but Joe felt the technology was at a point where it is easier to pull off a production than in the past. And his role with the city has allowed Joe Abeyta to work on broadcasts of Zozobra, as well as city council and school board meetings. “The Internet has improved so much over the past few years and the amount of equipment that you need to do it is better,” Joe Abeyta said. “Nowadays, you can do a game

with a laptop, a camera and some software. We were doing that before, it was just that the Internet is just better and the software is more complex. We can have a scoreboard, we can have the game clock. Just the basics that people expect when they watch a broadcast.” Joe Abeyta went about getting support from the city — plus some of its equipment is being used for the tournament — and Santa Fe Public Schools to make it happen. Rodriguez hopes that the television broadcast and streaming will help improve the image of one of the state’s oldest regularseason tournaments and give a boost to the school and the program, much the same way the schools in Albuquerque and Rio Rancho benefit from having many of their games

and events on NFHSNetworks. com. “I think a lot of those kids in the Albuquerque area get a lot of [publicity], and that ends up in their favor,” Rodriguez said. “And that shows when it comes time to vote for all-district or all-state or even to get a look from a college. That makes a difference. Any time you can get exposure, it helps.” Rodriguez is doing his part to promote the tournament, as he did an interview discussing the tournament, which has been airing on Channel 16. “I don’t know about that,” Rodriguez said. “My interview for TV is probably bad for ratings, but it’s a promotion for the tournament and our program.” The tournament itself has been helped by the addition of

Hobbs and Anthony Gadsden, two Class AAAAAA programs that have played the past two years and battled each other for three overtimes in last year’s Capital City boys championship. Hobbs’ tradition and success is a known quantity in the state, and Rodriguez feels the Eagles’ inclusion adds to a decided Northern flavor. The tournament has the boys and girls teams from Santa Fe High, Capital and St. Michael’s, while Santa Fe Prep boys and the girls teams from West Las Vegas, Las Vegas Robertson and Pojoaque Valley balances out the tournament. “Any time you can get four Santa Fe teams in a city tournament, it’s going to be great for community interest,” Rodriguez said. The school district will honor the late Bobby Rodriguez, David’s father, in a ceremony before the final game of the Thursday session between Santa Fe High and St. Michael’s. The tournament was renamed in honor of Bobby Rodriguez, who is one of just two coaches in Santa Fe to be named to the New Mexico High School Coaches Association’s Hall of Honor. David Rodriguez said representatives from the New Mexico Activities Association and former players and coaches who Rodriguez worked with will speak.

Scherzer: Red Sox eyeing Arizona’s Miley Continued from Page B-1 to acquire shortstop Jimmy Rollins from Philadelphia and send All-Star second baseman Dee Gordon and right-hander Dan Haren to Miami. The Phillies started retooling by shipping left-handed reliever Antonio Bastardo to Pittsburgh for minor league lefty Joely Rodriguez. Boston was discussing a deal to obtain left-hander Wade Miley from Arizona. Among free agents, Houston agreed to an $18.5 million, three-year contract with Luke Gregerson and a $12.5 million, twoyear deal with Pat Neshek, people familiar with the negotiations said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deals with the right-handed relievers were subject to physicals. And the Chicago White Sox finalized a $46 million, four-year contract with closer David Robertson after signing first baseman Adam LaRoche and reliever Zach Duke, and acquiring pitcher Jeff Samardzija in a trade with Oakland. “I love what Rick Hahn has been doing this offseason,” Robertson said of Chicago’s general manager. “I feel like he’s building a good squad that’s really going to be a competitor next year, and I’m hoping that we end up back in the playoffs.” Lester’s deal could open up the marketplace for other free agents and for players who may be available in trades, such

as Philadelphia’s Cole Hamels, Detroit’s David Price, Cincinnati’s Johnny Cueto and Washington’s Jordan Zimmermann. “That pitching market is going to move fast,” New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said. Lester helped the Red Sox win World Series titles in 2007 and ’13. Boston made a $70 million, four-year offer during spring training, and after the Red Sox couldn’t reach an agreement on a new deal in July,

they traded him to Oakland. Boston fell about $20 million short with its offer this week. “I think we would have liked to have had more chance for dialogue prior to the season,” Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington said. “Why that didn’t happen, maybe there’s more than one reason. I think we can certainly learn from the process.” San Francisco and the Los Angeles Dodgers also had sought the left-hander. “I think it raises the bar on all pitching,” New York Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said. “Heretofore, there’s been a lot of conversation about how valuable offense could be and, of course, we got [Giancarlo] Stanton, we got the big $300 million-plus contract. But right behind that, the next-highest is Lester. So I think it re-establishes the notion that pitching is still at a premium and highly desirable and costly.” While some teams were making progress toward the moves they wanted, others preferred to be patient. Spring training is more than two months away. “We’re in San Diego. I’ll use a surfing analogy,” Cashman said. “If we see the right wave, we’ll get on the board and ride it. But otherwise, we’ll just sit and wait for the next wave to come.” AP sports writer Howie Rumberg contributed to this report.

Cardinals seek road rebound Arizona must beat stingy St. Louis By R.B. Fallstrom The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS — Bruce Arians makes no effort to hide his distaste for short turnarounds between games. Good for the Arizona Cardinals coach to get it all out of his system now, with an opportunity at getting closer to a playoff spot and facing an opponent with a stingy defense. “I’m on the record about Thursday night football,” Arians said. “Hopefully we don’t have Wednesday night football. You just do what you have to do.” The NFC West-leading Cardinals (10-3) are tied with the Green Bay Packers for the top record in the conference entering a tough finishing stretch. Walkthroughs and film study had to suffice against the Rams (6-7), who have consecutive shutouts for the first time since 1945. “They don’t know what day it is, and that’s the way you approach it,” coach Jeff Fisher said. Traveling adds to the burden for Arizona, which is 7-0 at home, but has lost its past two on the road. The Cardinals will get extra rest before facing the Super Bowl champion Seahawks at home next week and finish at San Francisco. They have double-digit victories in consecutive years for the first time since 1975-76 and are closing in on a playoff spot. “We’re playing for something,” defensive end Calais Campbell said. “This is a game we have to have.” Here are some things to watch for in Cardinals-Rams: Stifling defenses: Since November the Rams have the best scoring defense in the NFL, according to STATS, allowing a 12.5-point average. The Cardinals are fourth-best during that stretch, allowing 16.5 points per game, and have been among the league’s best all season. The Rams are 11th in total defense. The pass rush led by Robert Quinn has 13 sacks the past two games and they’ve been particularly tough of late

Romo echoed his coach: “We need to be the best version of ourselves this game.” Garrett was asked twice to compare preparing 10 days for the Eagles now, when the team had just four days before the Thanksgiving game. “We are not talking about the last game and the preparation leading up to that game,” he said. To cornerback Orlando Scandrick, it doesn’t matter whether the game was 17 days or 17 weeks ago. “You’ve only got one week to prepare for each team,” he said.

Curling class to hold holiday toy benefit at Chavez Center

t’s time to rock out for a good cause. With the backdrop of one of the more peculiar Olympic sports as an enticement, the Genoveva Chavez Community Center will host its “Curling for Christmas” benefit from 6 to 8 p.m. Dec. 20 to raise gifts for local underprivileged kids. Judging by the early returns, there should be plenty of smiling faces this holiday season. The Chavez Center recently had its first graduating class of curling enthusiasts leave a multi-week tutorial program about the sport. Students learned the rules, were taught strategy and divided into teams. In between, they discovered the draw that curling possesses. It all began two years ago when the Chavez Center ice rink manager Tom Miller reached out to the Denver Curling Club to gauge its interest in holding an open house clinic in Santa Fe. It was, as Miller says, a chance to capitalize on the popularity curling achieves every time the Winter Olympics roll around. In the four long years between the Olympic Games, curling is all but forgotten. When the Games are on, the visual of people sliding heavy stones down a 117foot ice walkway is somehow intriguing to people who otherwise wouldn’t give it a second thought. “When the Olympics roll around, curling is on the front of the radar,” Miller says. “I had people contacting me during the last Winter Olympics if we could start a curling program at the center.” Miller says he met with a resident who had once been a member of the U.S. curling team. Together, they got the Denver Curling Club to come down. To Miller’s surprise, 200 people attended the open house. That led to a second open house in March, drawing another 204 participants. Miller knew he was onto something. “Obviously there was a demand here because there are a lot of people living here who are transplants from Canada and the northern states,” he says. “That led to us inquiring about purchasing the Denver club’s used equipment so we could start something similar here.” That purchase took place this past summer. The center is now the proud owner of 32 stones and several brushes. It gave rise to the Chavez Center’s first curling class and is the inspiration behind plans to start a new league. Those initial participants graduated Saturday, and Miller has a pair of fourweek classes (at a cost of $60 per entrant), one starting in January and another in February. By March, he hopes to pool those graduates and start an eight-team curling league that would run from March through October. “The first thing I learned through my

CURLING FOR CHRISTMAS When: Saturday, Dec. 20, 6-8 p.m. Where: Ice rink at the Genoveva Chavez Community Center To participate: Free admission to every person who brings an unwrapped toy for the Chavez Center’s charitable donation drive to help underprivileged kids during the holiday season Need to know: The Chavez Center is offering a pair of four-week curling classes at $60 per session. The first begins in January, the other is in February. Coming up: The Chavez Center hopes to launch a curling league in March. It would run through October and would have eight teams with four members per club.

marketing experience is that with curling there is a strong curiosity factor,” Miller says. “People see it on TV and say, ‘How hard can that be?’ and they come out to give it a try.” First lesson? Teaching people to walk on the ice without falling on their backside. “It’s actually not that simple,” he says. The second lesson is covering the sport’s basics. As in, each stone weighs 42 pounds and is made from polished granite. The brooms are used to melt the ice and make the stones move faster. The ice isn’t smooth like a hockey rink, but pebbled with beads of ice. Then there’s the scoring, the strategy and game management. Oh, and working

in unison as a team. “There’s a lot more to it than sliding stones on the ice,” Miller says. “It’s a technical game.” Same, too, is the facility that houses the sport. Miller says it takes about 45 minutes to prep the ice for curling. Whereas hockey or figure skaters want the surface as smooth as possible, such conditions actually work to slow the stones down because the surface tension and sheer weight of the stones creates too much resistance. By spraying 140-degree water onto the ice, it forms BB-sized lumps on the surface. That rough texture makes it easier to walk, and it allows the stones to slide more freely since there’s less stone-to-ice friction. The brooms generate just enough heat to liquefy the ice as the stone glides over. “The people from the Denver club said curling is a lot like golf,” Miller says. “It looks simple but when you try it, you find out there’s so much more to it. You have a basic stance, a basic grip, a certain release point. You do everything right and then still hit the ball into the rough. Curling’s a lot like that. The challenge makes you want to come back for more, but it’s the curiosity that gets you out here in the first place.” Himself a curling junkie, Miller says the sport’s premise is similar to shuffleboard or bocce ball, but includes strategy methods similar to chess and the attention to detail of golf. “Curling is a different sport and Santa Fe, well, it’s the City Different,” he says. “The goal here is to have curling reach a new level of popularity in the high desert. And I think we’re getting there.”

he comforting smell of melted wax wafts to the Alpine Sports’ basement. It’s the smell of skiing, of keeping the gear in shape to carve that perfect turn out on the field of white. This is a smell that’s been with a Santa Fe family for close to six decades. Harvey Chalker, his wife Reserl (short for Therese) and their adult daughter Amaya own and operate Alpine Sports on Water Street in downtown Santa Fe. Their repair crew cranks out well over a thousand ski and snowboard tunes in an average winter, and the warm odor of wax is ever-present. Harvey and Reserl launched the business in 1964 in a log cabin, still standing, at what was then the Santa Fe Ski Basin, where Harvey was first hired to oversee the rental operation. It was a job that Daniel required more ski-waxing and sharpenGibson ing than he cares to remember. And for Reserl, it’s a smell she cannot ever recall Snow Trax not sensing. She was born and raised in GarmischPartenkirchen, Germany, an enclave of skiing in the Bavarian Alps. On the shop’s basement hallway wall is an old black and white photo of her mother skiing in knickers with a heavy skirt. “That’s how we socialized then, on the mountain, skiing,” explained Reserl in a conversation this week. “It’s what we did.” And she did it so well. She was on the elite junior race team, and there on the slopes, in 1956, she met Harvey. Despite the fact she spoke little English, Harvey was drawn to her personality and the fact she was such a fine skier. (In fact, in 1961, she would grace the cover of Skiing magazine.) Harvey was then serving in the U.S. Army, and was stationed in Frankfurt. He had volunteered for the ski patrol at Garmisch, which was a designated recreation center for U.S. military personnel. Having learned to ski on Mount Hood in Oregon, he passed the test and was made patroller, which was directed by another man who was destined to play a major role in New Mexico’s ski community — Jean Mayer — who went on to found the Hotel St. Bernard at Taos. Harvey had already decided he wanted to make skiing his life work. “I didn’t know what exactly,” he recalls. “My thoughts then focused on being an instructor.” But after leaving the service, he ended up working at a small ski area in the Sangre de Cristos of New Mexico — the Santa Fe Ski Basin. It was then owned by legendary Robert O. Anderson and managed by Buzz Bainbridge, another key figure in the region’s early ski scene. In 1958, with Bainbridge’s OK, Harvey wrote to Reserl’s family to ask if she could come work as an instructor in the ski area’s ski school. Her parents were not enthusiastic, but finally agreed to one season. She took a crash course in English and came over at Thanksgiving in 1958. “We had the same interests,” beams Harvey. “And the rest is history.” She lived initially at La Posada, and daily had to negotiate the narrow dirt and mud road to the ski area, unlike European ski areas where the towns are slopeside. “It was a bit of shock to me!” Reserl said. “I learned to drive on that road, and basically grew up here.” They were wed in 1959. Harvey would spend the next decade or so running the ski area, overseeing a staff of 20 people or so. Its lifts consisted of the famed “Red Chair,” the first built in New Mexico, by Ernie Blake when he managed the area, a poma and a rope tow. The focus of his on-mountain efforts in the off-season in this era consisted primarily of slope grooming. “They’d left many stumps standing as high as two feet off the ground, and early season this was a problem,” Harvey said. “We also blasted a lot of rock and contoured slopes.” Next week, the conclusion of this story and more details on the unfolding season. uuu

There’s not been much change on the ski scene in the past week. A small storm moved through, dropping a few inches of snow here and there. Ski Santa Fe opened last Saturday, and has a 27-inch base. About half the lower mountain is open, with adult lift tickets costing $55. On Saturday and Sunday, it will host “Alpine Sports Demo Days,” with experts from many leading ski companies on hand to loan out demo skis to any and all comers for a run or two. Taos Ski Valley picked up 8 inches and now has a 27-inch base. It has Chair 2 to the top open last weekend, with skiing on Bambi and Upper Powderhorn, and hope to have Porcupine and the backside’s Honeysuckle open this weekend. It begins daily operations today, ahead of schedule. Today and Friday, enjoy discounted lift tickets (adults $52). After Friday, they go to normal rates — $82. On Saturday, the nonprofit SheJumps will oversee a festival here as part of a national movement called International Women’s Ski Day. It will include discounted lift tickets, rentals and instruction for beginners to experts, a beacon clinic, yoga clinic, a prize for best costume and a free screening of the film Pretty Faces at the Martini Tree at 5:30 p.m. open to everyone.
