Amazon, Hachette end book dispute

Critic says State Game Commission decision hurts recovery effort By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

In a major policy shift, private landowners in New Mexico will need State Game Commission permission to keep endangered Mexican gray wolves for recovery and reintroduction purposes. The commission adopted the

change unanimously Thursday at a public meeting in Española. Until now, permits have been administratively approved by the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish director. Many see the commission’s action as one more blow to a 15-year effort to recover populations of the Mexican gray wolf, which is on both state and federal endangered species lists. There are currently 83 wolves in the wild in New Mexico and Arizona. The change also will affect any private landowner seeking a

permit to keep endangered blackfooted ferrets in captivity for recovery efforts. Before Thursday’s vote, Game and Fish Department Director Alexandra Sandoval and State Game Commissioner Ralph Ramos said the change would allow more public comment before a permit is granted to keep carnivores on private land. “We are working hard to expand public comment and transparency,” said Ramos, a Las Cruces resident.

NEW YORK — One of publishing’s nastiest, most high-profile conflicts, the monthslong standoff between Amazon.com and Hachette Book Group, is ending. Amazon and Hachette announced a multiyear agreement Thursday. With e-book revenues reportedly the key issue, Amazon had removed pre-order tags for Hachette books, reduced discounts and slowed deliveries, hurdles that should be gone well before the crucial holiday shopping season. “This is great news for writers,” Hachette CEO Michael Pietsch said in a statement. “The new agreement will benefit Hachette authors for years to come. It gives Hachette enormous marketing capability with one of our most important bookselling partners.” David Naggar, an Amazon vice president, said the company was pleased that the agreement “includes specific financial incentives for Hachette to deliver lower prices, which we believe will be a great win for readers and authors alike.” Douglas Preston, an author who lives part-time in Northern New Mexico, said, “I’m relieved that Amazon and Hachette reached an agreement. I can only hope that, if disagreements arise in the future between Amazon and publishers, Amazon will never again seek to gain

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama will ignore angry protests from Republicans and announce as soon as next week a broad overhaul of the nation’s immigration enforcement system that will protect up to 5 million unauthorized immigrants from the threat of deportation and provide many of them with work permits, according to administration officials who have direct knowledge of the plan. Asserting his authority as president to enforce the nation’s laws with discretion, Obama intends to order changes that will significantly refocus the activities of the government’s 12,000 immigration agents. One key piece of the order, officials said, will allow many parents of children who are U.S. citizens or legal residents to obtain legal work documents and no longer worry about being discovered, separated from their families and sent away. That part of Obama’s plan alone could affect as many as 3.3 million people who have been living in the United States illegally for at least five years, according to an analysis by the Migration Policy Institute, an immigration research organization in Washington. But the White House is also considering a stricter policy that would limit the benefits to people who have lived in the country for at least 10 years, or about 2.5 million people. Extending protections to more

U.S. drivers told to get used to cheap gasoline

By Mike Stobbe The Associated Press

By Jonathan Fahey The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Those low gas prices on station signs aren’t going away soon, the government says. In a dramatic shift from previous forecasts, the Energy Department predicted Wednesday that the average price of gasoline in the U.S. will be $2.94 a gallon in 2015. That is a 44-cent drop from an outlook issued just a month ago. If the sharply lower estimate holds true, U.S. consumers will save $61 billion on gas compared with this year. Rising oil production, particularly in the U.S., and weak spots in the global economy have led to a sharp reduction in oil prices over the past four months. Not seeing much of a change ahead, the government cut its forecast for global oil prices next year by $18 a barrel to $83. As a result, U.S. drivers will pay on average 45 cents less for a gallon of gas next year compared to this year. Based on expected gasoline consumption, that’s a savings of $60.9 billion. That may not seem like a lot in the context of a $17.5 trillion U.S. economy, but economists say it matters because it immediately gives consumers more money to spend on other things. Consumer spending accounts for 70 percent of the U.S. economy. “It would be a reversal of the trend over the last few years where consumers can’t stretch a dollar far enough,” says Tim Quinlan, an economist at Wells Fargo. Quinlan says the price of gasoline is one of the three big drivers of consumer confidence, along with stock prices and the unemployment rate. “Lately all three are moving in the right direction,” he says. After falling for 49 straight days, the average gasoline price in the U.S. Thursday is $2.92, the lowest since December of 2010, according to AAA. That was also the last full year when the average came in below $3 a gallon. While it’s not unusual for gas to hit its low for the year in late fall, the government is now saying that these prices aren’t just a low point, but instead will be the norm next year. Adam Sieminski, administrator of the Energy Information Administration, the Energy Department’s statistical arm, attributed the lower pump prices to lower prices for crude oil and weak fuel demand. The EIA did hedge its bet on lower oil prices though, as it cautioned that OPEC could cut production in order to push prices higher. The global price of crude has fallen by $37 a barrel, or 32 percent, since late June and closed at $77.92 Thursday. Oil production around the world has been strong in recent years. A boom in the U.S. has pushed domestic production up 70 percent since 2008. At the same time, demand for fuels is growing more slowly than expected in Asia and Europe because of weak economic growth. The U.S. economy is faring relatively well, but more fuel-efficient cars and changing driving habits are keeping domestic gasoline demand low. The EIA expects demand to fall slightly next year despite the lower pump prices. The EIA also slightly lowered its prediction for growth in U.S. oil production because lower prices will force some drillers to cut back. Production is expected to reach 9.4 million barrels a day in 2015, down from a previous estimate of 9.5 million barrels per day. Still, that would be an increase of 4 percent over this year and the highest domestic crude production since 1972.

In brief More charges for ambush suspect BLOOMING GROVE, Pa. — Authorities have added terrorism charges against a man accused of ambushing a Pennsylvania State Police barracks and killing a trooper, and they say he told them he wanted to “wake people up.” State police say Eric Frein called the Sept. 12 slaying of Cpl. Bryon Dickson an “assassination” in an interview after his capture. Police filed the additional counts Thursday. He was already charged with first-degree murder. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. In court papers, police say they found a letter addressed to “Mom and Dad” on a thumb drive belonging to Frein. They quote the letter as saying that only a revolution “can get us back the liberties we once had.”

Vatican to offer homeless showers VATICAN CITY — Homeless people around the Vatican are getting more than just handouts from charitable passers-by. They’re getting a shower. The pope’s chief alms-giver, Monsignor Konrad Krajewski, says three showers will be installed in the public restrooms off Bernini’s Colonnade in St. Peter’s Square to cater to homeless men and women. Krajewski’s whose small acts of charity in Francis’ name are well known, told La Stampa’s Vatican Insider website that he came up with the idea after meeting a homeless man named Franco. Krajewski said he offered to take Franco to dinner after learning it was his 50th birthday, but Franco declined because of his stench.

‘No Child’ law waivers extended WASHINGTON — The Obama administration on Thursday invited states already given permission to ignore unpopular and unwieldy requirements in the No Child Left Behind law to apply to keep those exemptions into the next president’s term.

The Bush-era law has been due to be updated since 2007. The administration started granting waivers to states in 2012.

Salia is a general surgeon who has been working at Kissy United Methodist Hospital in Freetown, Sierra Leone. He came down with symptoms of Ebola on Nov. 6, but test results were negative for the virus. He was tested again on Monday, and the results were positive.

Hagel orders nuke force overhaul WASHINGTON — Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel has concluded that problems in the nation’s nuclear forces are rooted in a lack of investment, inattention by high-level leaders and sagging morale, and is ordering top-to-bottom changes, vowing to invest billions of dollars to fix the management of the world’s most deadly weapons, two senior defense officials told The Associated Press on Thursday. Hagel ordered two lengthy reviews of the nuclear force after a series of stories by the AP revealed numerous problems. Hagel’s moves are designed to get at the core of the problem, the officials said. New Mexican wire services

NEW YORK— Use of electronic cigarettes by high school students tripled over three years, according to a new government report released Thursday. In a large national survey last year, 4.5 percent of high school students said they had used e-cigarettes in the previous month. That’s up from 1.5 percent in 2011 and 2.8 percent in 2012. It’s not known, though, how many were repeatedly using e-cigarettes and how many only tried it once during that month and didn’t do it again. E-cigarettes began to appear in the United States in late 2006, but marketing has exploded in recent years. The devices heat liquid nicotine into a vapor. They are often described as a less dangerous alternative to regular cigarettes, but experts say nicotine — including the nicotine in e-cigarettes — is especially harmful to children. Dozens of states outlaw the sale of e-cigarettes to minors, and federal officials have proposed a nationwide ban on such sales. The report’s e-cigarette findings are disheartening, said Dr. Patrick T. O’Gara, president of the American College of Cardiology. Smoking rates has slowly been declining over the last several decades, but “we risk going backwards if a new generation of smokers becomes addicted to nicotine,” O’Gara said in a statement. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report comes from a survey of more than 18,000 high school and middle school students. The CDC survey also found 13 percent of high school students recently smoked regular cigarettes, and that about 23 percent used some form of tobacco product — be it cigarettes, e-cigarettes, flavored cigars, hookahs or something else. In contrast to the high school rate of 4.5 percent, the adult rate for use of e-cigarettes is lower — 2.6 percent of U.S. adults were current users last year, according to the CDC.

Russia to curtail nuclear security efforts with U.S. As tensions have grown, cooperation is clouded By Michael R. Gordon The New York Times

WASHINGTON — Russia has informed the United States that it is planning to reduce its participation next year in a joint effort to secure nuclear materials on Russian territory, a move that could seriously undermine more than two decades of cooperation aimed at ensuring that nuclear bomb components do not fall into the hands of terrorists or a rogue state. Sergey V. Kirienko, the head of Russia’s state nuclear company, has told senior Obama administration officials that no new projects in Russia are “envisioned” in 2015, according to U.S. officials.

The officials still hope to persuade the Russians to continue work next year on some current projects, though Russian officials have yet to agree. The reduced cooperation is a byproduct of the general downturn in relations between Russia and the U.S., which has been compounded by President Vladimir V. Putin’s decision to intervene militarily in Ukraine. But it also stems from long-standing concerns among Kremlin hard-liners about a program that brings U.S. nuclear experts to Russia’s nuclear sites and that, they fear, may create the impression that Russia is in need of outside help. Russia also announced last week that it was planning to boycott an international security summit meeting that is to be hosted by President Barack Obama in 2016. But the message delivered by

Kirienko represents the first time that the rising tensions between the Kremlin and the Obama administration have threatened to disrupt some of the practical efforts that the two sides initiated at the end of the Cold War to help Russia safeguard its nuclear materials. “There is a real danger that 20 years of U.S.-Russian cooperation to secure nuclear material will simply stop at the end of this year,” said Matthew Bunn, a Harvard professor who, during the administration of Bill Clinton, supervised a classified government study on protecting nuclear materials in Russia. A senior Obama administration official said the U.S. still planned to work with the Russians on nuclear security efforts in third countries. “We would hope that the door can be left open to any and all forms of cooperation in this important area,” said the administration official, who

spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss diplomatic exchanges. “If a reasonable project comes up that is on Russian territory, we would hope they would consider it.” Last year, the United States and Russia began narrowing the scope of their efforts. Under a new protocol, Russia’s Ministry of Defense stopped participating in projects, which meant an end to U.S. help in destroying Russia’s strategic weapons or securing its warheads. But the Energy Department has continued to work with Rosatom, the state-owned nuclear company, and other Russian organizations to improve the security of Russian facilities and materials. As tensions have grown, however, the prospects for future cooperation have come under a cloud. In September, Rose Gottemoeller, the State Department’s senior arms control offi-

cial, led a U.S. delegation to Moscow that sought unsuccessfully to resolve a U.S. allegation that Russia had violated a 1987 Soviet-American treaty banning intermediate-range missiles based on land. Some U.S. experts say that a new approach is needed, one that treats Russia more as an equal. By proposing the joint research and development of ways to secure and account for nuclear material or the joint training of teams that test security at nuclear sites, the U.S. could address some of Russia’s complaints and increase the chances that some projects might be sustained, said Bunn, the Harvard professor. “I think the United States needs to be actively proposing more fully equal approaches to put Russia in a position of a co-leader on nuclear security, not a state that needs help,” he said.

Senator mixes oil and politics Two Keystone bills ready for vote By David Espo and Dina Cappiello The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — In a blend of crude oil and raw politics, Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu scrapped on Thursday for converts among fellow Democrats for legislation to approve the Keystone XL Pipeline before a runoff election that threatens to end her career in Congress. The White House said President Barack Obama took a “dim view” of the bill but did not explictly threaten a veto. Even so, Senate Democratic officials said the party’s leadership agreed to give Landrieu room to try and pass the measure only after receiving assurances that Obama would not sign it. The maneuvering took place as House Republicans readied a vote for Friday on their own identical pipeline bill — advanced by Rep. Bill Cassidy, who is Landrieu’s rival in the Dec. 6 runoff. Landrieu led in a first round of voting last week, but Cassidy is favored to win the runoff, leaving Landrieu in urgent need of a way to shake up the race. Landrieu sought to cast herself as an independent-minded lawmaker as she maneuvered for supporters for her bill in the Senate and for votes back home. “My leadership didn’t give me permission to do this. Nobody asked me to do it,” she said in remarks on the Senate floor. The Senate Republican leader, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, offered a different view. “We never would have gotten to this point without the tireless leadership of Senator Hoeven in the Senate and Congressman Cassidy in the House.” Sen. John Hoeven of North Dakota is the bill’s leading Republican supporter in the Senate. Adding another layer of political complexity, Republicans said if the bill doesn’t become law in the next several days,

Bill Cassidy

they will make it a priority after a new Congress convenes in January, when they will have a majority in both houses and increased leverage over Obama. “We aren’t finished. We’ll pass it as either part of broader energy legislation or as an amendment to another mustpass bill, either in the lame duck or in the new Congress,” said Hoeven. The GOP-controlled House has voted several times to approve the pipeline, which would move oil from Canada to the Gulf Coast of the U.S. Legislation on the issue has always fallen victim to gridlock in the Senate, where Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has worked to prevent its passage. If the political maneuvering was thick, the issue itself was relatively straightforward. Supporters say construction of the pipeline is critical if the United States is to achieve energy security after decades of relying on oil imports that can fluctuate unpredictably in price. They also cite estimates

that the pipeline would create thousands of jobs But the project divides Democrats, with environmentalists in opposition while some unions as well as energy-state and business-minded lawmakers support it. The Sierra Cub issued a statement opposing the measure, as did Sen. Ed Markey, D-Mass., who urged Obama to veto the bill if it reaches his desk. The administration has put off announcing any decision pending a Supreme Court ruling in Nebraska on a challenge to the law that allowed the route of the pipeline to be set. Obama has long said his administration would make a final decision based on the pipeline’s estimated impact on climate change. The White House stopped short of directly threatening a veto of the legislation. But spokesman Josh Earnest, traveling in Asia with Obama, said the president takes a “dim view” of legislative efforts to force action on the project. The Nebraska Supreme Court’s decision is expected before the end of the year. That case involves a lawsuit filed by landowners and activists opposed to the project who are seeking to overturn a 2012 state law that allowed Republican Gov.

Announcing the actions quickly could hand critics like Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas a specific target to attack, but it would also give immigration advocates something to defend. Waiting until later in December could allow the budget to be approved before setting off a fight over immigration. “Before the end of the year, we’re going to take whatever lawful actions that I can take that I believe will improve the functioning of our immigration system,” Obama said during a news conference a day after last week’s midterm elections. “What I’m not going to do is just wait.” The decision to move forward sets in motion a political confrontation between Obama and his Republican adversaries that is likely to affect budget negotiations and the debate over Loretta E. Lynch, the president’s nomi-

nee to be attorney general, during the lame-duck session of Congress that began this week. House Speaker John Boehner said Thursday afternoon that if Obama went forward on his own, House Republicans would “fight the president tooth and nail.” Boehner is considering suing Obama over immigration and on Thursday he refused to rule out a government shutdown, despite saying that was not his goal. “We are looking at all options, and they’re on the table,” Boehner said. In the Senate, a group of Republicans — led by Cruz, Sen. Mike Lee of Utah and Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama — is already planning to thwart any executive action on immigration. The senators are hoping to rally their fellow Republicans to oppose efforts to pass a

Death: Boyfriend given 17-year sentence Continued from Page A-1 develop the strength to be the mother you want to be.” Van Holtz’s boyfriend at the time of Leland’s death, Steven Gallegos, pleaded guilty earlier this year to intentional child abuse resulting in death. He was sentenced in July to 17 years in prison. Leland died Jan. 26, 2011, three days after Van Holtz and Gallegos took him to a hospital emergency room. He was unresponsive, vomiting and covered in bruises. They claimed he had fallen out of a chair while eating chicken noodle soup at their Pojoaque home. The boy was airlifted to University of New Mexico Hospital in Albuquerque, but doctors there were unable to save his life. The cause of death was found to be blunt force trauma. Santa Fe doctors called police after determining that the boy’s injuries — which were in various stages of healing — were not consistent with what Van Holtz and Gallegos had described. It was clear during Thursday’s court hearing that emotional wounds caused by the boy’s death still fester within the families of his parents. Prosecutor Tim Williams began the hearing by talking about Van Holtz’s failure to protect her son from Gallegos, whom she knew had a violent temper, and her apparent lack of remorse about her son’s death. Leland’s father, Andrew Valdez, stood weeping at the podium while a cousin read a statement on his behalf. “She did things only a monster would do,” the cousin read. “How could you hurt someone you brought into this world? I hope you rot with guilt for what you have done to Leland.” Leland’s paternal grandmother, Sandra Valdez, also rebuked Van Holtz. “Animals in the wild fight to the death to protect their children,” she said. “That’s called natural instinct. Where was yours, Tabetha? … I hope you are haunted by the fact that you helped kill your son. You chose to look the other way while your son was beaten to death.” Van Holtz’s attorney, Jeff Buckles, said it was “ridiculous and heartless” for the

Leland’s father, Andrew Valdez, stood weeping at the podium while a cousin read a statement on his behalf. “She did things only a monster would do,” the cousin read. prosecutor to say that Van Holtz was not remorseful. “She has suffered as much as anyone over the death of her son,” he said as his client wept at the table beside him. Buckles said Van Holtz has worked to refashion herself “from the woman who would have let Steven Gallegos do what he did, to the woman she is today.” He said she underwent counseling, studied to get a GED and took nursing classes. Testifying in support of Van Holtz was a clinical psychologist who serves as the court-appointed guardian of the 8-year-old daughter of Van Holtz and Andrew Valdez. The psychologist conducted a competency evaluation of Van Holtz at the beginning of the case and recently conducted a risk assessment. “The person I saw back then is not the same person I saw a few months ago,” the psychologist testified. “She was a 22-year-old. She was just a child. Her brain wasn’t even finished developing.”

The psychologist said Van Holtz is much more mature now and has a low risk of reoffending. “She’s been devastated by this loss,” the witness said, adding that there is no greater punishment in the world than for a mother to lose a child. Some audience members gasped when the psychologist spoke about Andrew Valdez’s relationship with his daughter, saying he has essentially “abandoned” the girl, hasn’t paid child support and “has lost visitation because he won’t show up to talk to me.” The girl has only one parent now, the psychologist said, and sending her to prison would be devastating for the child, who lives with Van Holtz’s mother. Van Holtz, who was pregnant when her son died, also has a younger daughter with whom she has supervised visits. It was unclear who has custody of that child. Van Holtz was crying and had difficulty speaking as she addressed the court. “I’m truly

sorry for everyone I hurt,” she said between sobs. “I take responsibility for not being there when he needed me the most. I should have known better. I failed as a mother.” Van Holtz said she has tried since then to become a better mother so she can one day be able to be a full-time parent to her other children. “I’m asking for a second chance,” she said. “I know I don’t deserve it. But I’m trying to be there for my girls.” Andrew Valdez said Thursday that seeing Van Holtz sentenced brought him some small relief. “I’m happy at least she’s getting some sort of time,” he said. “Happy she’s going to be behind bars now. I wish it would have been longer.” Relatives of Van Holtz declined to comment on the sentence. Her attorney said he respects the court’s decision but said Van Holtz “has no business being in prison.” Andrew Valdez has filed a wrongful death suit against Santa Fe County in the case, claiming that he had reported his son was being abused at his mother’s house but that the sheriff’s office didn’t forward the results of its investigation in the case to the District Attorney’s Office for prosecution until after the boy had died. That lawsuit is still pending. Contact Phaedra Haywood at 986-3068 or phaywood@ sfnewmexican.com.

U.S.: Obama opposes use of ground troops

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said he believed that U.S. airstrikes had been ‘striking a blow’ against the Islamic State.

budget next month unless it explicitly prohibits the president from enacting what they call “executive amnesty” for people in the country illegally. “If the president wants to change the legal structure, he should go through Congress rather than acting on his own,” Lee said Thursday. “I think it’s very important for us to do what we can to prevent it.” But the president and his top aides have concluded that acting unilaterally is in the interest of the country and the only way to increase political pressure on Republicans to eventually support a legislative overhaul that could put millions of illegal immigrants on a path to legal status and perhaps citizenship. Obama has told lawmakers privately and publicly that he will reverse his executive orders if they pass a comprehensive bill that he agrees to sign.

and call in strikes. Dempsey did say that he did not anticipate expanding the U.S. military presence in Iraq beyond what he called a modest force. “I just don’t foresee a circumstance when it would be in our interest to take this fight on ourselves with a large military contingent,” he said. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, who appeared with Dempsey before the House committee, said he believed that U.S. airstrikes had been “striking a blow” against the Islamic State. Yet his comments came on

the same day that the leader of the Islamic State dispelled reports that he had been seriously injured or killed and issued a new call to arms in a 17-minute speech in which he belittled Obama’s plan to send more soldiers to Iraq and urged disciples to “erupt volcanoes of jihad everywhere.” The congressional testimony on Thursday underscored the challenge facing Obama as he continues to insist to a war-weary public that the United States is not returning to ground combat in Iraq. He has maintained that U.S. ground troops will not be used, even as his generals have

increasingly hinted that there may not be a way to defeat the Sunni militant group without at least some U.S. forces, particularly to call in airstrikes. When Iraqi and Kurdish peshmerga fighters worked with U.S. pilots to retake Mosul Dam in August, they used an elaborate three-way system to call in airstrikes from U.S. planes, going through interpreters. While Pentagon officials say the system worked in that case, many military officials also say that a small number of U.S. tactical operators would be needed to call in strikes when it comes time to retake urban areas.

announcement “great news” and wrote in an email that he was “glad Hachette stopped this crazy campaign which only hurt itself and its authors.” Hachette was among five publishers sued in 2012 by the U.S. Justice Department for allegedly fixing e-book prices. The publishers, who had worried that Amazon was charging too little for e-books, settled and were required to negotiate new deals with Amazon and other retailers. Under the new agreement, Hachette will set prices for e-books, “and will also benefit from better terms when it delivers lower prices for readers.” Amazon last month reached a multiyear deal with Simon & Schuster, another publisher that was sued in 2012 and eventually settled. Like Hachette, Simon & Schuster will set e-book prices, a top priority for publishers. The terms also included a priority for Amazon: “financial incentive for Simon & Schuster to deliver lower prices for readers.” Precise numbers were not announced for the Hachette or Simon & Schuster deals, but Howey noted in his email Thursday that for authors who self-publish through Amazon, the retailer takes a higher percentage of revenues when e-books are above a certain price. Thursday’s news raised expectations that agreements with the remaining major New York publishers, HarperCollins, Macmillan and Penguin Random House, can be achieved without disruption. “Thank heaven,” Preston wrote in an email Thursday, noting that he can resume his full-time writing duties. “My novel awaits.”

leverage by sanctioning books and hurting authors.” Last summer Preston, the author with Lincoln Child of thrillers and horror novels such as The Lost Island and White Fire, organized a group called Authors United and persuaded some 900 writers — including prominent local writers Michael McGarrity, David Morrell, James McGrath Morris, Valerie Plame and Hampton Sides — to sign a letter to Amazon that was published in The New York Times accusing the retail giant of harming their livelihoods in the dispute with Hachette. Restrictions on Hachette books are being lifted immediately, according to the announcement, although delays on Carlos Santana’s The Universal Tone, J.D. Salinger’s Nine Stories and other works remained in place two hours after the news broke. The Amazon-Hachette dispute had dominated publishing headlines and conversations for much of the year. James Patterson, John Green and hundreds of authors from various publishers had condemned Amazon, and Hachette author Stephen Colbert mocked the online retailer, which prides itself on customer service. Meanwhile, Hugh Howey, J.A. Konrath and other writers published by Amazon had blamed Hachette and praised Amazon for keeping prices down and allowing authors unhappy with traditional publishers to release their work elsewhere. Hachette sales on Amazon. com, the country’s biggest bookseller and dominant e-book seller, had dropped sharply. Amazon, meanwhile, issued a disappointing earnings report last month, although the impact of Hachette books was unclear. The New Mexican contributed to this story. Howey called Thursday’s

short of unifying the rival groups, and experts believe any pact between the two sides could easily unravel. U.S. intelligence officials have been watching the groups closely and say a full merger is not expected soon — if ever. A U.S. official with access to intelligence about Syria said the American intelligence community has not seen any indications of a shift in the two groups’ strategy, but added that he could not rule out tactical deals on the ground. The official insisted on anonymity because he said he was not authorized to speak publicly about the subject. According to a Syrian opposition official speaking in Turkey, the meeting took place Nov. 2 in the town of Atareb, west of Aleppo, starting at around midnight and lasting until 4 a.m. The official said the meeting was closely followed by members of his movement, and he is certain that an agreement was reached. The official

said about seven top militant leaders attended. A second source, a commander of brigades affiliated with the Westernbacked Free Syrian Army who is known as Abu Musafer, said he also had learned that high-ranking members of Nusra and ISIS met on Nov. 2. He did not disclose the exact location, but said it was organized by a third party and took place in an area where the FSA is active. According to Abu Musafer, two decisions were reached: First, to halt infighting between Nusra and ISIS and second, for the groups together to open up fronts against Kurdish fighters in a couple of new areas of northern Syria. The Nusra Front has long been seen as one of the toughest factions trying to oust Assad in a civil war estimated to have killed more than 200,000 since 2011.

ISIS leader calls for ‘volcanoes of jihad’ Iraq targeted official in airstrike last week By Erin Cunningham The Washington Post

BAGHDAD — The leader of the Islamic State sought to rally his backers in an audio statement released on Thursday, just days after Iraqi officials said the militant chief was injured in U.S. airstrikes. It was unclear whether the defiant recording by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi — urging followers to unleash “volcanoes of jihad” — was made before or after the Nov. 7 airstrikes. The United States said this week it could not confirm whether the elusive al-Baghdadi was killed or wounded following those attacks targeting the Islamic State leadership in northern and western parts of Iraq. It was not clear when the audio recording was made, but Baghdadi referred to President Barack Obama’s decision on Nov. 7 to double the U.S. troop deployment in Iraq to nearly 3,000. On Tuesday, 50 U.S. military personnel arrived at Iraq’s al-Asad air base in Anbar province, U.S. Central Command said. In the recording, the Islamic State leader mocked the United States for again sending ground

troops “to their death and destruction” in Iraq. He vowed that Islamic State militants would fight to the last man. U.S. and Abu Bakr allied waral-Baghdadi planes have carried out hundreds of airstrikes against the militants in Iraq and Syria since their offensive started in August. But the fighters continue to hold large swathes of territory. Baghdadi heaped scorn on the U.S.-led coalition for its campaign of “fear, weakness … and failure” against the Islamic State. Their “airstrikes and constant bombardment — day and night — upon the positions of the Islamic State have not prevented its advance, nor weakened its resolve,” Baghdadi in the 17-minute audio message. The recording was released online by the Islamic State’s official media arm, al-Furqan Media. It appeared authentic, and his voice corresponded with previous recordings released by the group, The Associated Press reported. “When he was reported injured, I said: ‘By the end of the week, we will either have

a new speech [from Baghdadi] or a new caliph,’ ” said Hisham al-Hashemi, an Iraqi researcher and expert on the Islamic State. Baghdadi declared himself caliph — or leader — of the Islamic State from the northern Iraqi city of Mosul in June. The group’s de facto capital is Raqqa, Syria. But Baghdadi is an Iraqi national, and spent 10 months in a U.S. detention center in this country in 2004. In the message released Thursday, he also noted recent

claims of allegiance from other militant factions in Egypt, Libya and elsewhere. He called for followers to “draw your swords” against Saudi Arabia, where at least eight people were killed last week in an attack at a gathering by minority Shiites. The Sunni-led Islamic State considers Shiites a heretical branch of the faith, and condemns Saudi Arabia and others for their alliance with the West. “He sounded healthy,” the researcher Hashemi said.

home in Iraq and quickly earned a reputation for brutality and for trying to impose itself as the leading faction in the rebellion behind which all pious Muslims should unite. Al-Qaida initially rejected ISIS’s claims to any role in Syria, and Nusra and other factions entered a war-within-a-war against it. But the Islamic State group swelled in power and became flush with weapons and cash after overrunning much of northern and western Iraq over the summer. According to the opposition official, the meeting included an ISIS representative, two emissaries from Nusra Front, and attendees from the Khorasan Group, a small but battlehardened band of al-Qaida veterans from Afghanistan and Pakistan. Also reported present at the meeting was Jund al-Aqsa, a hard-line faction that has sworn allegiance to ISIS; and Ahrar al-Sham, a conservative Muslim rebel group.

Newsmakers JFK New Frontier awards go to mayor, scientist

Svante Myrick

Nina Dudnik

BOSTON — The innovative mayor and the founder of a company that empowers scientific research have been named recipients of the 2014 John F. Kennedy New Frontier Awards, the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum announced Wednesday. Kennedy’s grandson, Jack Schlossberg, will present the awards on Dec. 10 to Ithaca, N.Y. Mayor Svante Myrick and Nina Dudnik, CEO of Boston-based Seeding Labs. Myrick, 24 years old when first elected in 2011, is credited with spurring economic growth in the city. Myrick, whose childhood included periods of homelessness, also revised zoning policies aimed at increasing downtown Ithaca’s livability, and encouraged the adoption of a living wage for city workers. Dudnik sent research tools that were being discarded in the U.S. to 22 developing nations. She has supported researchers developing treatments for tuberculosis and malaria, as well as expanding access to clean drinking water. The awards were created to honor Americans under age 40 who are changing their communities and the country with their commitment to public service. The Associated Press

Comet lander settles in shadow of a cliff By Frank Jordans The Associated Press

BERLIN shadow was cast — literally — across Europe’s historic mission to land on and explore a comet. Scientists said Thursday the landing craft not only bounced twice, it also came to rest next to a cliff that’s blocking sunlight from its solar panels. The good news is that the lander Philae is stable and in good health: Its scientific instruments have already begun gathering reams of data to send back to Earth, including the first pictures taken from the surface of a comet. The bad news is that its useful lifetime may now be much shorter. With just a day or two left before the lander’s primary battery is exhausted, scientists were considering what acrobatic maneuvers to risk in order to get the solar panels out of the shadows so they can keep Philae going for a few more months. The first photos sent back to Earth revealed the comet’s rocky terrain, including an image that showed one of the lander’s three feet in the corner of the frame. They indicate that Philae’s instruments are working properly, said Jean-Pierre Bibring, the lander’s lead scientist at the European Space Agency. Before deciding whether to try to adjust the lander, scientists will spend the next day or two collecting as much data as possible while its primary battery still has energy. The lander’s solar panels were designed to provide an extra

A

hour of battery life each day after that, but this may not be possible now. “We see that we get less solar power than we planned for,” said Koen Geurts of the lander team. The lander scored a cosmic first Wednesday, touching down on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko after a decade-long, 4 billion-mile journey through space aboard its mother ship, Rosetta. The comet is streaking through space at 41,000 mph some 311 million miles from Earth. The landing was beset by a series of problems that began when thrusters meant to push Philae onto the comet failed. Then two harpoons, which should have anchored the lander to the surface, weren’t deployed. This caused the lander to bounce off the comet and drift through the void for two hours before touching down again. After a second smaller bounce, scientists believe it came to rest in a shallow crater on the comet’s 2½ milewide body, or nucleus. “We are just in the shadow of a cliff,” Bibring said, adding that photos indicate the cliff could be just a few yards away. “We are in a shadow permanently, and that is part of the problem.” Bibring and his colleagues stressed that the data they’ll be able to collect with the primary batteries alone will have made the landing worthwhile. “A lot of science is getting covered now,” he said, noting that soon scientists will get their hands on a tomography of the comet and data showing whether the matter it is made of is magnetized.

Report: Break-in reveals Secret Service failures Thick bushes no barrier for White House intruder By Alicia A. Caldwell The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Secret Service response to an armed intruder who jumped the fence and raced into the White House was complicated by muted alarms and radios, thick bushes on the lawn, unlocked doors and an officer inside who was physically too small to tackle the intruder and fumbled with her equipment, according to the Homeland Security Department review of the case. A summary of the government’s investigation, released Thursday night, revealed sensational new details about the Sept. 19 break-in at the White House by a disturbed Army veteran carrying a knife. The government determined that lack of training, poor staffing decisions and communication problems contributed to the embarrassing failure that ultimately led to the resignation of the head of the Secret Service, Julia Pierson. The report disclosed Thursday did not specify any disciplinary actions. The new report said White House intruder Omar Gonzalez cleared the fence where a trident, or ornamental spike, was missing. An officer in the joint operations center who tried to raise the alarm was unaware his warnings weren’t being broadcast to uniformed

officers stationed at the executive mansion. Some officers at a gate on Pennsylvania Avenue failed to see the fence-jumper because their view was obstructed by a construction project. Two officers wrongly assumed Gonzalez wouldn’t be able to get through thick bushes on the property. Another officer posted on the portico outside the wooden White House doors mistakenly assumed the doors were locked. Gonzalez, 42, was able to run into the building before a female officer seated just inside the building could lock a second set of doors. That officer tried twice to take Gonzalez down but was unable because she was smaller than the intruder. Gonzalez was eventually tackled by another officer. Investigators also said members of an emergency response team didn’t know the layout of the White House and hesitated to go into the mansion after Gonzalez. Gonzalez has pleaded not guilty in federal court to charges of unlawfully entering a restricted building while carrying a deadly weapon, which is a federal charge, and two violations of District of Columbia law — carrying a dangerous weapon outside a home or business and unlawful possession of ammunition. Acting Secret Service Director Joseph Clancy is expected to testify next week at an oversight hearing before the House Judiciary Committee.

Trend to seize civil assets disturbing

T

he article about civil forfeiture (“In seizure of civil assets, police look for ‘goodies,’ Nov. 11) was disturbing. I remember reading about it a decade ago when it was being used to take big drug dealers’ homes and cars, the theory being that these were obtained by illegal activity. Even then abuses were starting to creep in. To read that the practice has spread to crimes such as drunken driving, prostitution and shoplifting is scary. There is no connection between those crimes and the property being taken. Under this logic, if a person makes an illegal turn or drives over the speed limit, his car could be taken from him. There is no rationale to justify this overreaching other than government greed. Boiled down, it amounts to no more than theft of an individual’s property by the government. Alan Scott

that can remain in place for years, and the failure rate is negligible. Teenage birthrates in America have already dropped by more than half since 1991. But Sawhill calculates that if LARCs became much more widespread, the proportion of children born outside marriage could drop by a quarter, and the proportion of children who are poor would drop sharply as well. “By turning drifters into planners, we would not only help those women achieve their own goals but also create much stronger starts for their children,” Sawhill writes. The American Academy of Pediatrics recently urged doctors to recommend LARCs for sexually active teenagers. One obstacle is the initial cost — $500 to $1,000 — so that many young people can’t afford them. A study in St. Louis offered free birth control, including LARCs, to sexually active teenagers and found that pregnancy rates for them plunged by more than three-quarters. Abortions fell by a similar rate. That’s what we need nationwide. The Affordable Care Act provides free access to all forms of contraception, which helps. But many pediatricians aren’t trained in inserting LARCs. So we need more women’s health clinics, yet, instead, some are being closed as casualties of abortion wars. Moreover, states and schools should embrace comprehensive sex education, teaching contraception, the benefits of delaying sex and, also, the responsibility of boys. A starting point for the United States should be to rebuild Title X spending on family planning. Surely we can afford to spend as much in this area as we did back in 1980. So, of course, let’s ask teenagers to show responsibility toward sex. But let’s demand the same of our politicians.

he Santa Fe City Council acted quickly to sign a long-term lease with the Interfaith Community Shelter, bringing to a close — for now — the uncertainty regarding the future of the homeless shelter. The two-year lease means that operators of the shelter can obtain grants and other support needed to keep the shelter running. Until action Wednesday, the shelter had been operating on a month-to-month lease. That uncertainty made fundraising more difficult, especially as the shelter was opening for the winter months. Still to be decided is what happens over the longterm — Councilor Chris Rivera had many questions about the operation of the shelter, prompted by concerns of neighbors, that still deserve exploration. The council, in approving the lease, wants more discussions about how to improve shelter operations. We believe the shelter deserved the certainty of a longterm lease, but also recognize that there is always room for improvement in any operation. (Is there money, for example, to keep overnight guests longer in the morning so they don’t have to go out in the cold by 7:30 a.m.?) Neighbors, both business and residential, have concerns about shelter patrons. As we said, it’s not easy to have homeless people in the neighborhood, and Christian charity can be stretched thin when drunken people are congregating in your yard. There are safety issues about Cerrillos Road at night, with people darting across the street. These concerns need to be dealt with, and we urge shelter operators and city officials to continue working with neighbors to reduce the shelter’s impact. It’s essential to improve relationships, considering the city’s investment in the shelter. The interfaith shelter, operating in the same location since 2010, has been the recipient of some $1 million in city dollars to buy and renovate the building. City dollars help keep it open. Important services through the Santa Fe Resource and Opportunity Center are in place to help homeless patrons improve their situations, and eventually return to work and homes of their own. The effort is a fine example of private/public cooperation. Rivera’s resolution to study the shelter, and the questions he has raised, should spark a broader conversation on dealing with the homeless. He deserves credit for asking questions. Councilor Patti Bushee also helped get the lease secured. Perhaps the questions and resulting debate will help Santa Fe improve how it assists the homeless. The state of Utah, for example, appears on track to eliminate homelessness by 2015 — not through sheltering people overnight, but by immediately moving people to homes. In 2005, Utah compared costs of ER visits and jail for homeless people and found out that it cost about $16,670 per person to provide emergency help, while providing homeless people with an apartment and social worker was about $11,000. Through Utah’s Housing First program, those in need receive an apartment, no strings attached. Homelessness has been reduced by 78 percent there. Whether New Mexico as a state would want to tackle homelessness more comprehensively is another question. Santa Fe likely can’t do it alone, although there are programs in the city that do emphasize moving people to more permanent housing. The interfaith shelter, by its nature, is a temporary solution — designed, successfully, to make sure people don’t freeze to death. It is working. Now, with a longer-term lease and support from the city, the shelter can improve operations and relations with the neighbors. The city at large can discuss different approaches to the challenges of helping those in need. Shelter neighbors can and should receive help in dealing with their complaints. Together, Santa Fe will continue to be a city with a big heart, one that won’t let people freeze to death in the streets.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Nov. 14, 1914: Lovington — A big rabbit drive for the benefit of the starving people of Belgium has been suggested here, and is arousing much interest throughout the Plains district. It is proposed to capture thousands of rabbits and turn them over alive to the Red Cross Society for shipment to Belgium. Rabbits are very numerous in the Plains country.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Hostess requests couple leave early Dear Annie: Our neighbor “Ellen” is having an 80th birthday party for her husband. She has invited about 40 people, including my husband and me and the “Smiths,” another couple who are neighbors. We’ve had many disagreements in the past where the Smiths have yelled and sworn at us. Now we ignore them. Ellen told me we could come over to her home for the party anytime, but had to leave by 2:00 because the Smiths would be coming over then. Mr. Smith plays guitar and will be entertaining. Is it right for her to ask us to leave? We are mature and reasonable people, and we could certainly leave on our own if we felt the need. My husband and the birthday celebrant are friends, whereas Mr. Smith is an acquaintance. But Mrs. Smith is friends with Ellen. What should we do? My heart tells me to make an excuse not to attend, but common sense tells me it would cause more problems if we did that. What do you think of such an invite? Should we go? — Unwanted Friends Dear Friends: What nerve. Ellen was rude to tell you that you have to leave the party when the Smiths arrive. Does she perhaps think they will cause a scene? Did they ask that you not be there? No guest should be telling the hosts whom to invite. Ellen should have invited both of you, without restrictions, and let the chips fall. It would show tremendous grace on your part to show up at this party. Dear Annie: We are writing to ask what we can do about the way our son’s family talks. They have foul mouths. Whenever we phone, we can hear them in the background yelling about something and using the F-word rather liberally. Even our high-school-age grandson speaks the same way. We’ve asked our son and his wife whether they try to correct the kids, and he says everybody talks this way and to get used to it. How do we speak up and let them know we have had enough of their toilet mouths? — Ohio Dear Ohio: What they do in their own home is not your busi-

ness, even if you can hear them in the background when you call. And if Mom and Dad have potty mouths, it is expected that their children will, as well. They don’t realize the handicap they are giving their kids by not teaching them how to control their language. All you can do is ask, as a sign of respect, that they not use such vulgarities when speaking directly to you. We hope they can manage at least that much. Dear Annie: This is in response to the letter from “Stressed and Nervous,” the stepmother who has no relationship with her adult stepchildren. Here is the flip side: Our stepmother, a lovely woman, came into our family after my siblings and I were grown. While we never had a close bond, we included her in all of our life events. Most importantly, our children considered her to be their grandmother. When Dad died, we all mourned together. For the next couple of years, we regularly invited “Grandma” to all family events. However, she soon began saying it was inconvenient for her to come and would rebuff any attempt we made to make it easier, such as picking her up or having her stay with us. She hasn’t invited her grandchildren over since my father died. She didn’t attend graduations or send birthday greetings. At first, our children were hurt, but five years later, they no longer care. I still call several times a year, but it’s like dropping a coin down a well. She has a large extended family of her own, and when I call them to ask whether she’s OK, they say I need not worry. It’s sad she has distanced herself. She is part of 20 years of family memories. — Dismissed Stepdaughter Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Appeals court hears tribal claim to preserve Leaders say Jemez Pueblo considers Valles Caldera its ‘spiritual sanctuary’ By Susan Montoya Bryan The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — Leaders of an American Indian community in Northern New Mexico are not giving up on efforts to reclaim the Valles Caldera National Preserve as their own. Jemez Pueblo considers the nearly 140-square-mile swath of federally managed public land as a “spiritual sanctuary” and

part of its traditional homeland. The tribe went before a panel of the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals during a special hearing at The University of New Mexico law school in hopes of keeping alive its lawsuit against the federal government. The question is whether the tribe still holds aboriginal title to the land. Karl Johnson, an attorney representing the pueblo, out-

lined for the court how Spanish landgrant heirs came to hold title to the land following a swap more than 150 Joshua years ago. The Madalena federal government then purchased the property in 2000 with the goal of operating it as a working ranch while developing recreational opportunities for the public.

Cold weather settles in S.F. Sudden snap brings temperatures plummeting to record lows By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

C

old air gripped Santa Fe and much of the rest of New Mexico this week, breaking low-temperature records and causing more of the city’s homeless population to seek shelter. According to the National Weather Service, temperatures dipped into the low teens late Wednesday and early Thursday morning. By Thursday afternoon, the temperature had crawled back into the low 30s. Brent Wachter, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, said the sudden cold snap came from cold air building in Canada. That front, coupled with the remnants of a super typhoon, caused a mass of frigid air to drop into the Lower 48 in recent days. The state’s eastern plains were hit the hardest, Wachter said, but the cold front set several records throughout New Mexico. Wachter said the highest temperature recorded at the Santa Fe Municipal Airport on Wednesday was 32 degrees, a record low for Nov. 13. The previous record for the day was 37 degrees in 2000. In Las Vegas, N.M., the high temperature on Wednesday was 17 degrees. The previous record for the date in that city was 27 degrees. The cold snap also brought a chance of snow Thursday night at higher altitudes, Wachter said. He predicted temperatures would rise Friday, but not for long. Colder temperatures are expected later in the day and into the weekend. Wachter also said there’s a greater chance for snow during the weekend, also at higher altitudes. Difficult driving conditions were reported on some Eastern New Mexico highways due to packed snow and ice. Dangerous conditions also were reported early Thursday on sections of Interstate 25 near Las Vegas and parts of Interstate 40 near Santa Rosa. Joseph Jordan-Berenis, director of the Interfaith Community Shelter, said there was a surge in the number of people staying at the facility at 2801 Cerrillos Road. On Monday, only 58 people stayed overnight at the shelter, but

on Tuesday and Wednesday, more than 90 people flocked to the site to seek warmth. “These are January or February numbers,” JordanBerenis said. He said the shelter has donated a lot of warm clothing and blankets to its guests and has opened its doors during some hours that it’s normally closed to help warm those suffering in the cold. The sudden freeze also kept heating and plumbing companies around town busy. Bernadette Marti, who owns Reliable Tech with her husband, Angelo, said the phone had been ringing non-stop. She said the majority of calls concerned heaters or furnaces that wouldn’t turn on. “People have waited too long,” she said. “We try to remind people as best as we can, but it’s the same every year.” Ben Swan, a spokesman for the Santa Fe Animal Shelter & Humane Society, encouraged pet owners to bring their animals inside during the cold snap. When that is not possible, he said, they should make sure an animal’s water supply doesn’t freeze and that they have some kind of insulated shelter. Swan said some pets may require a jacket or sweater to cope with the cold temperatures, particularly those with thin fur or skin. Swan also said many creatures, cats included, will seek refugee inside vehicle engine compartments during the winter season. He said a quick tap on the hood should shake loose any stowaways. Officials with Santa Fe County and the city of Santa Fe didn’t report any problems caused by the sudden cold. Many people noted that clumps of thick green leaves also fell from many trees throughout town. Rich Atkinson, known as “the Tree Man,” said the cold played a factor. He said trees produce a hormone that regulates when leaves fall. The freeze is merely a trigger. He said most of the trees that shed leaves were likely mulberry trees. In some good news, Candy DeJoia said Ski Santa Fe crews had started making some snow, thanks to the cold weather. It was warmer on the mountain than in town Thursday morning, she said, but by midday it had gotten cold enough to produce artificial snow. Ski Santa Fe plans to open on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 27.

Nina Otero ordered to shelter in place after weapon was found Santa Fe police on Thursday arrested a man in connection with a gun found outside the Nina Otero Community School, which was placed under a “shelter-in-place” order for part of the afternoon as a result of the discovery. No one was hurt during the incident, which began after the gun was discovGonzalo ered at about Villa 1:15 p.m. Students were sent home at the normal dismissal time, around 3 p.m. Police identified the suspect as Gonzalo Villa, who was listed on jail records as a 29-year-old Las Vegas, N.M., resident. A statement issued by the Santa Fe Police Department said a witness saw a “suspicious male” throw an object into a bush on the south-side campus, located across the street from Capital High School. Police said Capital High also was placed under a short shelter-in-place order while the safety of students and faculty was ensured. Under a shelter-in-place order, students and staff remain locked in the building, but classroom activity goes on as scheduled. The man, who was seen tossing what turned out to be a firearm before he left on foot, had been seen with a female in a white Nissan Altima, police said. The female has not been charged in connection with the incident. Police said shortly before 4 p.m., the man was seen at Nina Otero again, and officers and detectives arrested him on charges of carrying a deadly weapon on school premises, tampering with evidence and being a felon in possession of a firearm. Jail records show he also was booked on a fourth-degree probation violation. The elementary school, which opened in August, serves about 560 students.

“Almost immediately the United States began restricting the pueblo’s access to the property and interfering with its traditional, religious and ceremonial uses of the property in which it had been engaged for hundreds and hundreds of years,” Johnson told the justices. U.S. Justice Department attorney Robert Stockman argued that the tribe’s aboriginal title was essentially extinguished when surveyors,

Sarah Backus recently granted a request to dismiss a lawsuit demanding payment of the claimed debt. The lawsuit, filed earlier this year by an attorney representing a California-based debt collection company, alleged Questa had wracked up the substantial tab for toner between July 2010 and September 2012. But the company that claims to have sent dozens of toner cartridges to the Village Hall during that time has been accused of deceptive marketing practices.

Village officials maintain they did not order the ink in question that began to arrive at their offices in December 2009. The village is said to have only had one printer at the time. Much of the ink was reportedly returned. An invoice filed as part of the lawsuit suggests the village nonetheless paid $18,970.75 to Imaging Supply Center Inc. before halting payment in September 2010. The Villa Park, Calif.-based company continued to send toner for

another two years, adding the ink to a bill that came to a total of $62,829.50. Imaging Supply Center Inc. sold its claim for debt by the village to another company in 2013, which filed suit in January seeking to collect. Mayor Mark Gallegos, who was elected this year, could not immediately recall how much the village had paid but suggested the village’s finance director at the time acted quickly once she realized staff had

Former Rio Arriba County sheriff Tommy Rodella is still in the fight for a new trial after a federal judge on Thursday gave his lawyer more time to gather evidence against one witness who had testified against him. Rodella’s lawyer, Robert Gorence, had said he would present evidence at the hearing showing that Michael Tommy Tafoya, an Rodella Española man who had accused the former lawman of roughing him up after a March “road rage” episode, lied about his employment status in his testimony during the September trial against Rodella. During Thursday’s hearing, it was proven that Tafoya didn’t lie, but District Judge James Browning allowed Gorence time to gather evidence that could prove another witness in the case had stoled from an Española Wal-Mart cash register while she was employed at the store. Gorence, who filed a motion for a new trial earlier this month, has argued that if the second key witness has stolen from an employer, her credibility could be tainted, and the judge should grant Rodella a new trial. Rodella was convicted Sept. 26 of violating Tafoya’s civil rights while brandishing a firearm. Prosecutors have said the former sheriff — and his son, Tommy Rodella Jr. — tailgated Tafoya and started a three-mile chase that ended with Rodella striking the 26-year-old man’s face with his badge in a fit of rage. Gorence had said before the Thursday hearing that Tafoya lied about his work status as an adult caretaker at Easter Seals El Mirador. During the trial, Tafoya said he was on work leave pending court proceedings, but Gorence said Tafoya was put on leave to determine if “he had physically abused a resident” at the facility. A human resources representative for Easter Seals El Mirado testified in court Thursday that Tafoya had been placed on administravely leave in April and in August after allegations that Tafoya had verbally and physically abused patients. But after an internal investigation, the allegations were proven false, the official said. Easter Seals officials also told

contest tentatively set for Dec. 23. The grievance against Begaye stems from his time as a shareholder representative for the Navajo Nation Oil and Gas Co. It alleges that he wrongfully received stipends for unduly called meetings and was given money unlawfully for legal representation at a time of chaos in the company. It also alleges that he would not have the tribe’s best interest in mind because he was party to a lawsuit challenging a Navajo Nation Supreme Court decision in federal court. The tribe’s high court had reinstated the company’s CEO and five board members, and the federal lawsuit sought to overturn that decision. McLaughlin’s attorney, Brian Lewis, said Begaye’s decision

In brief City eliminates parking spaces on Canyon Road Four parking spaces on eastbound Canyon Road between Paseo de Peralta and Delgado Street are going away. The City Council approved a resolution Wednesday directing the Parking Division to remove the four parking spots in the interest of public safety. “Removing the current four parking spaces … will alleviate traffic congestion, improve pedestrian safety, allow for rapid fire suppression response and bring this segment of Canyon Road into compliance with the current International Fire Code,” the resolution states. Materials presented to councilors said parked cars on the narrow street could impede emergency vehicles. The Canyon Road Merchants Association surveyed businesses between Paseo de Peralta and Delgado Street. Twenty-eight voted in favor of removing the parking spaces and eight voted against. Of the businesses closest to the parking

to join the lawsuit challenging the Navajo Nation Supreme Court clearly demonstrates that he doesn’t have unswerving loyalty to the tribe. He sought repeatedly to get an attorney who represented the shareholders, Dennis Ickes, to agree on the witness stand. But Ickes wasn’t biting. “Isn’t it true he should be disqualified because he cannot demonstrate loyalty?” Lewis asked Ickes. “It’s not disloyal to anybody to seek to enforce your rights,” Ickes responded. The allegations regarding financial improprieties haven’t been argued. The hearing is scheduled to resume Friday. Begaye’s attorney, David Jordan, said none of the allegations would disqualify Begaye

from the race for the tribe’s top elected post. He said the shareholder representatives were advised by the tribe’s Department of Justice to seek outside counsel and that Begaye attended meetings that he was asked to attend and deposited any stipends he received. Jordan said he sees nothing wrong with seeking relief in federal court over decisions made on a federally chartered company. “We think this is a smear campaign that’s hoping that maybe something will stick,” he said. The grievance seeks to have Begaye replaced by the fourthplace finisher from the tribe’s primary election and an order keeping the Navajo Election Administration from placing Begaye’s name on the ballot.

for these schools in savings accounts rather than providing intended services. At one school, GAO said $1.7 million was illegally transferred to an offshore account, an apparent result of “cybercrimes committed by computer hackers and/or other causes.” About $500,000 was recovered. At the same school, an administrator reported that it had at least another $6 million in federal funds in a bank account. But as of June 2014, the federal agency overseeing it had not “yet determined how the tribe accrued that much in unspent federal funds,” the GAO said. The Interior Department identified the school as Rock Point Community School on the Arizona portion of the Navajo reservation. Calls to the school for comment were not returned. Deswood Tome, an adviser to Navajo Nation President Ben Shelly, said the tribe’s education department took control of the school last summer after the money turned up missing. He said the tribe has implemented measures to make sure it doesn’t happen again and is working to recover the money. Among the GAO’s other findings: u One school accumulated over $900,000 in unspent funds intended for special education services for students with disabilities. u One school went multiple years without submitting an audit, as required. u One school used $1.2 million in funds to provide a nointerest loan to a local public school district, which was not permitted by law. u One school had to adjust its financial statements by nearly $1.9 million after financial reports from three years were found to be unreliable. The GAO did not identify the schools highlighted in its report.

City Council approves Chavez security contract The City Council approved a request Wednesday to award Santa Fe-based Chavez Security Inc. a $216,810 contract for security services at the city’s water facilities. The security company, owned by former City Councilor Peso Chavez, was one of four that had submitted bids to the city. When factoring in the city’s existing “local preference” guidelines for procurement, “Chavez Security was the lowest bid,” city documents state. Under the contract, the company will provide perimeter and trail patrols of the Santa Fe River’s restricted upper watershed area. “The area requiring 24-hour patrol stretches from east of McClure reservoir to the Buckman Well Field and encompasses eight distribution water tanks, several water wells in the City, the Northwest Well, and 13 wells plus four booster stations along the Buckman Pipeline,” documents state.

BRADLEY M. THOMAS III October 18, 1958-November 9, 2014 Bradley M. Thomas III -- strong competitor in the game of life, stalwart, fierce friend, go getter, eminent, always in the fast lane, compassionate--died on Sunday November 9, 2014. Brad, fourth generation Santa Fean, succumbed to his pain following complications from knee surgery. He attempted one last six-mile run to bid his thoughtful friends on Tano Road a good day, as neighbors encouraged him on his daily run. Brad loved and encouraged his two daughters, Sierra and Ashley, and was a devoted and caring husband to his wife Christine. A real estate developer and businessman with integrity and high regard for everyone he met, Brad managed property to maintain and preserve the "Santa Fe" that his grandparents had worked to improve; a tradition instilled in him by his Grandfather, Benjamin (Bradley) Morris Thomas Sr., who was appointed Secretary of New Mexico in 1889 by President Benjamin Harrison. Brad’s Grandmother, Bess Pointdexter Gills, who Brad cherished, instilled in him the kind and high moral principles of business. Brad’s skill and creativity contributed to the planning and development of successful large-scale real estate projects of Thomas Properties. Having attended the College of Santa Fe and receiving his real estate license, Brad went on to manage his own companies: Platinum Ponderosa Investments, and SI-ASH, LLC with a keen sense for perfection. His motto and trademark: "If you’re not comfortable, I’m not comfortable," made him a coveted real estate manager, whom people felt comfortable in business and friendship. Brad was devoted to preserving and maintaining the Santa Fe he grew to love and the quality of life that he and his friends valued and treasured as teenagers. A champion motocross racer in his youth, Brad and his friends traveled every hillside trail in Santa Fe with zest and vigor for life; which transcended to their ability to succeed. Brad recently invited his riding buddies to join him on the open trails once again. If you see a trail of dust and a flash on the hillside, honor him with a wave, as he follows his dream. Throughout his life, Brad’s passion for fast cars was apparent. He attended the Bondurant Driving School and graduated with the keys to all roadways. His love for his cats, chocolate, whipped cream, filet mignon, lemon bars, enjoyed with family and friends brought out the best in him. Brad was extremely proud and devoted to his daughters, Sierra Jade Thomas, graduate of Santa Fe Prep with an aspiring international business career at the University of Redlands, California; Ashley Tiarra Thomas, a Sophomore at Santa Fe Prep, who carries the genes of her Great Grandfather-an attorney, as she can win an argument on facts, and competes in Speech and Debate. Brad is survived by his loving mother, Audrey Thomas; wife, Christine Thomas; daughters Sierra and Ashley; sisters, Barbara Bryant and Sylvia Walter; brothers, Doug Thomas and Forrest Thomas and extended family and friends. Services will be held on Saturday November 15, 2014 at 11:00am at the First Presbyterian Church, 208 Grant Ave. Santa Fe, NM. Reception to follow. SUSAN ANNEKE CHITTIM

Anneke Chittim passed away Thursday, October 30, 2014. Anneke was born in Baltimore, Maryland on February 22, 1941 to Kathleen and Richard Dicus. She earned a B.A. in Liberal Arts at the University of Denver and an M.A. in Spanish language and literature at Colorado State University. In addition to careers as a teacher, legal administrator, and office manager, she had a strong commitment to community service including the Santa Fe Rape Crisis Center, the Spanish Colonial Arts Society, the Santa Fe Opera Guild and the Santa Fe Symphony. Among her many friends and family she will be missed by her god daughter Anneke Marie Lee, her husband Randy and their children Tessa, Makaela, and Kristina, her dachshund Canela and cat Jasmine. A memorial service will be held at St. Bede’s Episcopal Church, 1601 South St. Frances Drive, in Santa Fe on Saturday, November 15, 2014 at 2 pm with a reception following at the church.

Taos-area home a ‘one-stop shop’ for drugs, state police say Probation officers allegedly found heroin, mushrooms in Arroyo Hondo By Andrew Oxford The Taos News

TAOS — A Taos County man is charged with operating what a New Mexico State Police

official described as a “one-stop shop” for drugs out of his home. Daniel B. Herrera Jr., 41, of Arroyo Hondo was arrested Nov. 7 when Adult Probation and Parole Office personnel searched his residence with state police. They reported finding about 50 grams of heroin, 120 grams of cocaine, mushrooms, marijuana and Suboxone, according to Lt. Edwardo Martínez, who said

many of the drugs were packaged in quarter-gram quantities. The search followed a visit to Herrera’s home by probation and parole officers, who detained him. A search also yielded $4,485 in cash and a plethora of what is alleged to be narcotic paraphernalia such as a grinder, small plastic baggies, burned straws and rolling papers, according to a statement of probable cause filed for Her-

rera’s arrest. Most of the drugs and cash were found in a safe, according to the court filing. Martínez alleged Herrera refused to open the safe, which he purportedly claimed belonged to his wife. Law enforcement obtained a search warrant and opened the safe with a crow bar and sledge hammer, the lieutenant said. Herrera was charged with

Study: As world warms, more lightning By Seth Borenstein The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Lightning strikes in the United States will likely increase by nearly 50 percent by the end of the century as the world gets warmer and wetter, a new study says. While those conditions were already known to promote thunderstorms in general, the new work focused on lightning strikes themselves. Researchers calculated just how much lightning flashes increase as air warms, clouds fill with more energy from water vapor and rainfall intensifies. They concluded that for every degree Fahrenheit the world warms in the future, lightning strikes will go up nearly 7 percent. That’s 12 percent for every degree Celsius. Because scientists forecast that the world may get about 7 degrees warmer by the end of the century, based on current carbon dioxide emission trends, that comes to a 50 percent increase in lightning strikes, said David Romps. He’s the atmospheric scientist at the University of California Berkeley who led the study. “When you used to have two lightning strikes, now you’ll have three,” Romps said. “It’s a substantial increase.” The researchers based their calculation on 2011 weather data from across the U.S. They presented their results in a paper

released Thursday by the journal Science. Romps said the key is that warmer air holds more water vapor. Water vapor is fuel for thunderstorms, sparking more lightning. The energy that storms get from vapor is the biggest driver in increasing lightning strikes in the future, Romps said. The new study shows that at any given level of rainfall intensity, there will be more lightning in the future. Harold Brooks, a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration severe storm

meteorologist, said the study makes sense and marks an advance over previous work. The result is important mostly because it means more natural sparks for dangerous wildfires, which are already forecast to worsen with manmade warming, Romps, Brooks and other meteorologists said. Lightning deaths have been falling from about 100 per year in the 1960s and 1970s to 33 per year in the last decade. So far this year 25 people have been killed, NOAA data shows. Brooks said the drop is because of people changing their behav-

ior to be safer in storms and better medical treatment of lightning victims. The top states for lightning deaths in the past decade are Florida, Texas, Colorado, Georgia, North Carolina and New Jersey. About 80 percent of lightning victims are male. Michael Mann, a Pennsylvania State University climate scientist, said this study “is yet another reminder that there are likely some unwelcome surprises in store … when it comes to the impacts of climate change.”

ties are increased for others. The measure allows for rehabilitative treatment, electronic monitoring, payment for detention and creative approaches to restore harmony to be added to the list of possible sentences. Under the measure, people who possess liquor on the Navajo Nation, for example, would be fined $500 on the first offense — up from $50. A conviction for receiving stolen property could net a punishment of 180 days in jail and a $500 fine. The tribe can prosecute only misdemeanor crimes that carry a maximum penalty of a year in jail and $5,000 in fines upon conviction. Federal authorities can prosecute felony crimes on American Indian reservations that carry much harsher sentences. The council continues its two-day special session Friday in Window Rock. Still on the agenda are proposals to impose a junk food tax, and to address

term limits for the tribal president and lawmakers. Lawmakers on Thursday sent another bill supporting a divide of land at Fort Wingate in northwestern New Mexico between the Navajo and Zuni tribes back to a council committee. Clara Pratte, the director of the tribe’s Washington, D.C., office, said the issue is unlikely to be considered in Congress this year, given the time the Navajo Nation has taken to consider its stance. An effort to resurrect a bill that would let Navajos decide which political candidates are fluent in the tribe’s language failed, ending any hope that Chris Deschene had for jumping back into the presidential race. He was disqualified after failing to show he could speak fluent Navajo. “To get back into this race, this was absolutely the fatal shot,” said Deschene spokeswoman Stacy Pearson.

Ink: Center accused of ‘toner phoner’ scam ordered ink from Imaging Supply Center. “It was fortunate we caught it before we spent a whole lot more money,” he said. It is unlikely any money paid by the village will be recouped, as it appears Imaging Supply Center has filed for bankruptcy, according to the mayor. A lawyer representing the debt collection company, Legal and Debt Recovery Inc., conceded he did not have record of Questa officials ordering toner from Imaging Supply Center. The lawyer, Bruce S. Garber, nonetheless maintained a formal

imprisonment and unlawful taking of a motor vehicle. During Herrera’s appearance Monday in Taos County Magistrate Court, Judge Ernest Ortega ruled that he was a flight risk and a danger to the community. Herrera was held at the Taos County jail in lieu of $90,000 bond. This story first appeared in The Taos News, a sister paper of The Santa Fe New Mexican.

agreement was not needed to collect the debt. He referred to UPS records indicating village staff continued to sign for packages from Imaging Supply Center Inc. as recently as 2012. A lawyer representing Questa, Lindsay Drennan, countered that villages cannot be held responsible for debt not based on formal contracts. Backus agreed, citing decisions by the New Mexico Supreme Court in granting Drennan’s request to dismiss the case. The Taos News attempted to contact representatives of Imaging Supply Center Inc. Records indicate the company was incorporated in Nevada on

July 29, 2009. The company’s registration has since been revoked. Phone numbers for the business and its president, Kevin Deaile, have been disconnected. Imaging Supply Center has been accused of perpetrating a “toner phoner” scam. A branch of the Better Business Bureau in Southern California lists the company as engaging in deceptive telemarketing. In a “toner phoner” scam, swindlers typically send ink to a business unsolicited, followed by a bill, hoping that whoever receives the bill does not notice that no one ordered items on the invoice. In 2010, a Northern Colorado business was sued over debt

to Imaging Supply Center. The business found it had paid $1,100 for toner it had not ordered. Such schemes have prompted warnings from law enforcement for years. The U.S. Senate held a hearing on “toner phoner” scams in 2000. In Questa, Gallegos said new procedures have been implemented to more closely track packages received by village staff. “We’re getting better communication between the department heads and the staff in the office,” he said. This story first appeared in The Taos News, a sister paper of The Santa Fe New Mexican.

Fracking accident kills 1, injures 2 in Colo. Workers were trying to heat frozen line when it ruptured The Associated Press

GREELEY, Colo. — An accident at a hydraulic fracturing site in northern Colorado killed one worker and seriously injured two others Thursday, authorities said. The three men were trying to heat a frozen high-pressure water line at the oil or gas well site when it ruptured, Weld County sheriff’s Sgt. Sean Standridge said.

One man was hit by a stream of water or fracking fluid and died from the impact. The accident happened near Mead, about 35 miles north of Denver, on the fourth straight day of frigid weather in the region. “The pipe was frozen and they were trying to heat it up to get it flowing again,” Standridge said. The injured men were flown to hospitals, he said. The temperature in the area was about zero at the time of the accident, National Weather Service meteorologist Bob Kleyla said. Overnight, the temperature

had dropped to minus 5, which is severe but not as cold as in other locations in Colorado such as Denver International Airport, where the low was minus 14. The men were working for Halliburton Co., which Anadarko Petroleum Corp. contracted to perform fracking operations at the well. Fracking involves injecting high-pressure mixtures of water, sand or gravel, and chemicals into the ground to extract oil and gas from rock. After the accident, Anadarko shut down all the fracking pads in the area as a safety precaution.

“This is a very difficult time for all of us at Halliburton, and we are working with local authorities as they look into the details of this incident,” Halliburton spokeswoman Chevalier Mayes said in a statement. Three inspectors from the Occupational Health and Safety Administration were at the site investigating the cause of the accident and whether it could have been prevented, Area Director Herb Gibson said. He said there had been no prior fatalities at the Anadarko site. “It’s definitely a dangerous industry,” Gibson said.

STATE VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENT CLASS AAAA POJOAQUE VALLEY 3, WINGATE 0

Elkettes come alive

Pojoaque Valley trounces Wingate to advance By James Barron The New Mexican

C

season. So, how does this work? Well, when you’re dealing with volleyball — especially the Class AAAA State Tournament — anything is possible. The Elkettes proved that on Thursday afternoon in the opening round of the AAAA bracket, beating the Lady Bears in a surprisingly convincing 25-6, 25-12, 25-16 fashion in the Santa Ana Star Center. The win advances 11th-seeded Pojoaque to a quarterfinal tilt with No. 3 Silver at 8 a.m. Friday. Pojoaque (11-12) did not play like a team that finished in third place without a win in four pool-play games earlier in the morning. Relying on strong serving and a toughened defense, the Elkettes kept No. 9 Wingate from effectively running their system. Then again, Wingate did not play like the team that upset fourth-seed West Las Vegas 25-17 in the opening pool play game in Group D, which gave it the point-differential tie-breaker to take second in the pool over the Lady Dons. And that had some Elkettes wondering how they so easily beat a team that gave West Las Vegas fits. It’s the same team that Pojoaque has not beaten in four tries this season, and one that kept its season alive with a 25-22, 25-15, 19-25, 26-24 win over No. 6 Hatch Valley in the opening round. “That’s what we were thinking,” Pojoaque senior outside hitter Micah Espinoza said. “We were like, ‘How did West lose to this team?’ No disrespect to Wingate.” In a lot of ways, Pojoaque’s performance hearkened back to the style it displayed while winning the last five state titles but hasn’t consistently this season. With Wingate often simply passing the ball back to the Elkettes, they then found holes in the Lady Bears defense for quick and easy kills. It was the antithesis of the entire season for the offense-starved Elkettes, whose tallest player is just 5-foot-7. Then again, their head coach, Miquella Lovato, felt Wingate was the perfect matchup after facing off against taller teams in Hatch Valley and No. 2 Albuquerque Hope Christian, both of whom have hitters over 6-0. “This team was similar to us in height,” Lovato said. “So maybe it wasn’t as much of an intimidation factor. We definitely stepped up and played the way we

ALBUQUERQUE — As well as his players have the chemistry brewing with one another off the court, University of New Mexico men’s basketball coach Craig Neal wants his team to display the same skill on it. It’s one reason he has gotten into the habit of taking his players’ cellphones, laptops and other devices away during dinner and just before curfew. He wants his players to get used to doing something other than burying their noses in their gear. “This group,” Neal said, “is really good off the floor with their talking and communication, but they gotta get better on the floor — and that’s a process.” That process begins in earnest Fri-

Tannehill rallies Dolphins past Bills By Steven Wine The Associated Press

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — When Miami Dolphins rookie receiver Jarvis Landry dived into the end zone for a fourthDolphins 22 quarter touchdown, he was just Bills 9 getting started. A replay review upheld the score, and Landry then sprinted up and down the sideline in a celebration of redemption. Landry bounced back from a potentially disastrous fumble, and the Dolphins ended a streak of three consecutive losses to Buffalo, overcoming a third-quarter deficit to win 22-9. “It was great to swing the tide,” Landry said. “It was good not to be the little brother.”

CLASS AAA DESERT ACADEMY 3, LAGUNA-ACOMA 2

Desert Academy rallies to beat Laguna-Acoma By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

RIO RANCHO — Natalie Passalacqua was just about ready to move on from volleyball season, and then something very unexpected happened. The Desert Academy volleyball team was down two games to Laguna-Acoma in a Class AAA State Volleyball Tournament first-round match at Rio Rancho Cleveland on Thursday, and the head coach did not see any way that her team would be able to pull out a win. “Being able to come back after los-

ing the first game has been a struggle all year, let alone two,” Passalacqua said. “I thought for sure we were done.” But then momentum swung in Desert Academy’s favor at the beginning of Game 3, and the Lady Wildcats used it to win three straight games in a 24-26, 18-25, 25-13, 25-22, 15-10 come-from-behind victory to make the quarterfinals. They will play District 2AAA rival and champion Santa Fe Prep for the fifth time this season at 1:15 p.m. at the Santa Ana Star Center on Friday. The Blue Griffins finished first in Pool D with Eunice and Dexter on

Thursday morning to receive a firstround bye. The Lady Wildcats (15-9) started Game 3 with a 6-2 lead and kept the Lady Hawks at bay the entire time with a new-found confidence. “That third game, they relaxed,” Passalacqua said. “I saw their shoulders go down.” Desert Academy jumped out to a 7-1 lead in Game 4, but the Lady Hawks took an 8-7 lead just moments later. But that was short-lived as the Lady Wildcats took the lead back with two straight points and didn’t give it up, setting up Game 5. Laguna-Acoma lead Game 5

4-1, but the Lady Wildcats closed the gap to move on to the quarterfinals. Desert Academy has not made a state tournament since 2009, and the jump from A to AAA this year seemingly made it harder for the Lady Wildcats to get a postseason berth. Now the Lady Wildcats are have a state tournament win in a new class with players that don’t have any postseason experience. “It was kind of unexpected, but it was awesome,” Passalacqua said. “This is a big stage for them.” But the Lady Wildcats will have

Escalante, Hagerman to collide for state title By Will Webber The New Mexican

There’s home field advantage. Everyone knows about that. There’s also home field disadvantage. Dusty Giles is living with that discomfort right now. On Saturday, Giles and his undefeated Escalante football team host top-ranked Hagerman in the Class AA state championship game. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. in Tierra Amarilla. On Thursday, Escalante celebrated by throwing a huge pep rally inside the school’s gym. “From a coaching standpoint, sometimes it’s easier going on the road for games like this because you come up with a plan, you leave town and you go do it,” Giles said. “You stay at home and you have all the distractions and the hoopla that goes with it.” For the entire season, the Lobos (11-0) and Hagerman (10-1) have been on a collision course for the title game. A powerhouse from down south between Roswell and Artesia, Hagerman is led by senior quarterback Alejandro Ramos. He has passed for 2,380 yards and 35 touchdowns, plus rushed for another 975

yards and 11 scores. “He’s definitely one of those dual-threat guys,” Giles said. “He’s so good at making those throws when he’s not under pressure, but if he gets out and starts running around he’s even better, because he gets a lot of those big passes on the run, and then he gets a lot of his big runs just pulling it down and taking off.” Sounds a lot like Escalante’s own quarterback, Dominic Montaño. A junior, he is just one decent run short of 2,000 yards (he has 1,989 with 31 touchdowns) and has passed for 13 touchdowns and 786 yards. Both teams feature solid options running the ball as Escalante senior Will Hurd (1,099 yards) does the same kind of heavy lifting that Hagerman skill players Michael Veloz (552) and Andres Arebalos (628) do as a tandem. What sets Veloz apart is his ability to make things happen as a receiver. He led AA with 78 catches for 1,419 yards and 21 touchdowns. “You have to know where he is on every play, but it’s easy to put too much thought into it because you have to remember that there are 10 other guys on the field who can beat you,” Giles said. “It’s just a big problem to have, though.”

The two teams split the last two state titles in Class A, with the Lobos winning in 2012 and Hagerman capping an undefeated season last year. The Bobcats have won 23 of their past 24 games, including the last seven while scoring an average of 49.7 points. CLASS AAAA Top-seeded Robertson (10-0) has the week off thanks to a first-round bye, but perennial power St. Michael’s (7-3) and Pojoaque Valley (5-5) will be in action this weekend. Seeded 11th in the 12-team draw, Pojoaque will travel to Portales (6-4) to play at 6 p.m. Friday, while St. Michael’s, the 7-seed, stays at home to face Kirtland Central (5-5) at 1:30 p.m. Saturday. For the Horsemen, it’s a chance to extend their domination against teams from the northwest corner’s District 1AAAA (formerly 1AAA). According to St. Michael’s football historian Mike Pitel, the Horsemen have only lost two games — both to Bloomfield, in 1987 and again the following year — from that district of teams from the northwest corner. Kirtland Central is the 1AAAA runner-up. According to Pitel, the Horsemen have won 11 straight against teams from that district.

Elkettes: Lady Dons scrape out a victory Continued from Page B-5 know how.” That started right off the bat, as Pojoaque served its way to a 7-3 edge, then upped it to 14-5 before scoring 11 of the next 12 points to finish off the Lady Bears. In Game 2, the Elkettes built a 15-8 lead when Espinoza served six straight points and added a pair of aces that put the game away. Even when the Lady Bears stayed within 10-all in Game 3, there was still a sense that Pojoaque was in control. The Elkettes exerted it with three kills from Racheal Garcia and two from Abrianna Gipson during a decisive 6-0 run. For a moment, or two, it was vintage Elkettes volleyball. “It felt really good,” Elkettes senior setter Sofia Lucero said. “It felt really good. You never get over that feeling, really.”

NO. 4 WEST LAS VEGAS 3, NO. 6 HATCH VALLEY 1 Back to Square One. That’s how Lady Dons senior outside hitter Celeste Trujillo described the lackluster pool play effort in Group D earlier in the morning. It left West Las Vegas taking the tougher road to the state championship, which began with the Lady Bears. Even though they started off sluggishly in every game, the Lady Dons found a way to turn their fortunes around for a 25-22, 25-15, 19-25, 26-24 first-round win and advance to an 8 a.m. quarterfinal matchup with No. 8 Portales. Trujillo said the 1-3 performance in pool play took some of the wind out of the West Las Vegas sails that blew steadily during an eight-match winning streak. “We fell apart and we knew it,” Trujillo said. “We were back literally back to Square

One. We weren’t talking to each other.” Karli Salazar, the Lady Dons head coach, nipped that in the bud quickly, as she told her team to talk about the pool play and iron out whatever issues came from it. “I felt like if we didn’t figure it out now and reset immediately, it was going to be the end of our season,” Salazar said. West Las Vegas trailed by a significant portion in every game, but turned enough of them around to keep hope — and the season — alive. Game 2 was by far its best performance, as a 14-9 Lady Bears lead was evaporated in the wave of a 16-1 run to close the game. Now, it’s on to Portales, a team that upset No. 1 Ruidoso in Group A to take the top spot in the bracket. “We kinda came in here with big heads,” Trujillo said. “We saw what it was like to fall apart again, and we don’t want to do that again. We’ve come too far to do that again.”

Los Alamos: Española sweeps Valencia Continued from Page B-5 leads to winning matches, could not make the next leap. That is, until they faced the Lady Coyotes. They pounced on the District 4AAAAA runners-up in the first two games, then rallied from an 18-14 deficit to pull off the sweep. It was the kind of opportunity the Lady Hilltoppers would let slip through their fingers before. “I think this was a real eyeopener for them,” Los Alamos head coach Sharleen Espinoza said. “To see that they can come back from behind and go out there and win it. … It’s anybody’s game. It’s not over until the ref indicates it’s over. The fact that they came back was really impressive. It was something I’ve been expecting from them from Day 1 because I believe in them as a team.” She had faith even as the Lady Hilltoppers struggled through a 1-3 mark in Group A pool play that placed it third among No. 1 Piedra Vista and No. 8 Los Lunas. But the glimmer of hope came in a 25-20 win over the Lady Tigers to end pool play. It was the spark

that Los Alamos needed going into the afternoon action. “That pool gave us some confidence,” junior outside hitter Sierra Foley said. “Going into this game, we knew we could do it.” The Lady Hilltoppers made it happen with their passing, an area that they have struggled with for most of the season. They handled Roswell’s servers with ease for the most part, which then set the offense up to use hitters Foley and Kristen Montaño to their optimal use. Espinoza said her back row consistently sees good serving in practice from setter Samantha Melton and Montaño, so she felt it was a matter of time before that work translated onto the court. “We pass these guys every day in practice,” Espinoza said. “That was the biggest difference between us and Roswell, the serve-receive. We were able to get those balls to where they needed to be, so that we could set up plays and get those quick turn-arounds.” But the sudden confidence surge for the Lady Hilltoppers will meet its biggest test in

the Lady Sartans. This is the sixth time in the last seven state tournaments the two programs meet. The previous five encounters have ended with St. Pius advancing to the next round, and Los Alamos vexed by their inability to vanquish their heated rival. Perhaps the Lady Hilltoppers’ best defense might be the number attached to their name. “A lot of teams underestimate us because we are the 12th seed,” Foley said. “Going into this, just kicking butt like we did, it shows everybody that we belong here.” And they’re desperation to keep the season going. NO. 4 ESPAÑOLA VALLEY 3, NO. 11 VALENCIA 0 It wasn’t the prettiest moment for the Lady Sundevils, but all that mattered to senior setter Nicole Romero was that there was a tomorrow and she whooped and hollered about that prospect. She was also trying to inspire her team after struggling to put away a dogged Lady Jaguars team. “We didn’t play that good,” Romero said with a laugh. “I was just thinking, ‘All right,

bad game’s out of the way. Get excited because we have a big, big, big [match] — bigger than any other one if we want to get any further.’ ” The goal for Española (19-3) is to advance to the semifinals, which is hasn’t done the past two seasons. Another was to win Group D in pool play, but that was short-circuited by a sudden loss of confidence against St. Pius. After battling their way from a 16-11 deficit to take a 19-18 lead in Game 2 of the teams’ pool play set, the Lady Sartans scored the final seven points to take the game and the point differential tiebreaker, offsetting a 25-23 loss in Game 1. It was how the Lady Sundevils played that irked head coach Damon Salazar. “I told them, ‘I’m actually mad at you,’ ” Salazar said. “We talked about our goals all year, and it was there. We were in charge, and then you let it slip away because you got timid. I was pissed at at them because we don’t play that way.” Senior outside hitter Elana Salazar led the way with 21 kills and 21 digs. Victoria Valdez had 25 digs, while Kaitlyn Romero chipped in with seven kills.

tory, though they had to rally from 23-18 down to win both the first and third games over the Steers (16-6). “They weren’t easy at all and we had a lot of errors we need to work on,” Mora coach Leslie Vigil said. “What I did like is that they didn’t break. We came through and we fought back. I was proud of them.” Now comes a showdown with No. 1 Melrose (15-5). “It’s hard to say [what to expect],” Vigil said. “It’s going to be determined by who can get up on that block. I know they have hard hitters, and so do we. It’s going to be determined by who has the better blockers, I think.”

25-22, 18-25, 25-21, 15-5. “[We had] a lot of mental breakdowns,” McCurdy coach Anita Rodriguez said. “There were different factors that came into play in the fourth and fifth sets that led to the mental breakdowns. That’s what it came down to.” The Lady Bobcats never led in Games 4 or 5, unable to muster enough aggressive attacking to fend off Jal’s comeback. “Our passing broke down a little bit and if you can’t get the pass, you can’t get the ball back over the net,” Rodriguez said. “That’s what helped lead to the loss.”

nament in seven years, overwhelming the Mountaineers (11-8) in a 25-17, 25-18, 25-17 sweep. “We struggled at times but we haven’t been here in seven years, so to come in here and go 2-2 in pool play and advance to the next round is exciting,” Coronado coach Bill McLaughlin said. “We get to play Waldorf for the fifth time. We’re very familiar with them and they’re familiar with us.” Coronado beat Waldorf 3-2 back on Sept. 27, but the Wolves (19-3) won the next three meetings between the two teams including a 3-1 victory in the District 1A championship on Nov. 8. “We’re going to have to play almost perfect [against Waldorf],” McLaughlin said. “We’ve got to hit the ball hard, we’ve got to serve a little bit better than we did today.”

Desert: Now faces daunting Prep foe Continued from Page B-5 to beat a Prep team to which it has lost four times this year in order to keep their season alive. With that in mind, Blue Griffins head coach Kiran Bhakta believes his team still has the edge. “My girls just have to come out and play,” Bhakta said. “If they take care of that business, then we’re fine.” It’s going to be hard for the Lady Wildcats to beat a team that seems invincible, and the trick to moving on is going to be forgetting all those previous losses. “I think we have more heart and want it more than Prep,” Desert Academy senior Tori Heath said. “We have to think of them as some other team that we have to play. We have to get over that mental block of them being Prep and just focus on what we want.” It won’t be easy, but Desert Academy has already pulled off the unexpected.

NBA ROUNDUP

Kershaw, Trout win MVP awards

Mavs get biggest win ever over winless 76ers

Dodgers ace 1st pitcher to win NL MVP since 1968

The Associated Press

By Ben Walker The Associated Press

NEW YORK — For once, Clayton Kershaw was glad to see a long shutout streak end. Kershaw became the first pitcher to win the National League MVP award since Bob Gibson in 1968, coasting to an easy victory Thursday. “A little bit of shock, honestly,” the Dodgers ace said on a conference call. “I guess I never really anticipated to win that.” A day after unanimously taking the NL Cy Young Award, Kershaw completed a Los Angeles sweep. A little earlier, Angels outfielder Mike Trout was a unanimous pick for the AL MVP. Trout had been blanked in his bid the past two years, finishing second both times to Detroit slugger Miguel Cabrera. The 23-year-old Trout was the youngest unanimous MVP pick in major league history. “Just anxious throughout the day,” Trout said of the waiting period. “I knew the experience I had the last two years. It helped me with it.” Trout, the MVP of the All-Star game in July, and Kershaw both led their teams to West division titles. In August, they finally faced each in a regular-season game — Trout singled, doubled and struck out looking at Dodger Stadium. Someday, they hope to meet in October. “I think in the future we’re going to contend for the World Series, year in and year out,” Kershaw said. To do that, they want to improve in the playoffs. Kershaw went 0-2 with a 7.82 ERA against St. Louis in the Division Series, leaving him 1-5 with a 5.12 ERA in the postseason. The MVP and Cy Young prizes don’t “take the sting away of what happened in the playoffs,” Kershaw said. Trout went 1 for 12 in a three-game sweep by Kansas City in his first playoff try. “It’s tough to do. You have all these expectations, you want to do so good,” he said. The awards voting was completed by the end of the regular season. Kershaw breezed past Miami bopper Giancarlo Stanton and Pittsburgh outfielder Andrew McCutchen to become Most Valuable Player. While Detroit pitcher Justin Verlander won the AL MVP in 2011, no one on the NL side had done it for nearly a halfcentury. There was plenty of everyday playervs.-pitcher MVP debate before this announcement. Kershaw had acknowledged “there are so many people out there who don’t think a pitcher should win.” But the 26-year-old lefty again dominated the hitters — Kershaw led the majors in wins and ERA while going 21-3 with a 1.77 ERA and throwing a no-hitter.

Los Angeles Angels’ Mike Trout watches his solo home run against the Kansas City Royals in Game 3 of the AL Division Series on Oct. 5 in Kansas City, Mo. Trout was a unanimous winner of the American League’s Most Valuable Player award after consecutive second-place finishes.

Kershaw got 18 of 30 first-place votes and 355 points in balloting by members of the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. He drew nine second-place votes, one third and pair of fourths. “To be a pitcher and win the MVP, it’s pretty awesome,” he said. Stanton got eight first-place ballots and 298 points. He led the NL with 37 homers and was second with 105 RBIs, and missed the last 17 games for the fourth-place Marlins after being hit in the face by a fastball. McCutchen got four firsts and 271 points in his bid to win the award for the second straight year. He hit .314 with 25 home runs and 83 RBIs for the wildcard Pirates. Six AL pitchers have won the MVP since Gibson took it for the Cardinals. Before Gibson, seven pitchers had won the NL MVP, a list that includes Hall of Famers Sandy Koufax, Carl Hubbell and Dizzy Dean. The AL MVP has been won 12 times by pitchers, starting when it was first pre-

sented in 1931 to Lefty Grove. Kershaw won the major league season opener in Australia on March 22, then missed more than a month when a strained upper back put him on the disabled list. Featuring sharp breaking pitches, Kershaw came back to win his second straight NL Cy Young and third in four years. Kershaw led the big leagues in complete games and was best among starters in strikeouts per nine innings and WHIP (walks plus hits per inning). The four-time All-Star struck out 239 in 198 1-3 innings. On June 18, he threw the first no-hitter of his career, at Dodger Stadium against Colorado. Trout received all 30 first-place votes and 420 points. Detroit designated hitter Victor Martinez was second with 229 points and Cleveland outfielder Michael Brantley third with 185. Trout hit .287 and set career highs in home runs (36) and RBIs (111) while leading the major leagues in runs with 115 and extra-base hits with 84. In his third full season, he matched his bests in doubles (39) and triple (nine). “The power’s definitely up,” he said. “Getting a little older and a little stronger.” Other numbers also changed. He led the AL with 184 strikeouts and his stolen bases dropped to 16. Trout was a unanimous pick as the 2012 AL Rookie of the Year and was second in MVP voting to Cabrera in both of his first two full seasons, 81 points back in 2012 and 103 points behind last year. Trout is the fifth-youngest MVP, STATS said. Vida Blue (1971), Johnny Bench (1970) and Stan Musial (1943) were 22 and Cal Ripken Jr. (1983) was a younger 23. Kershaw and Trout won the last of baseball’s major postseason awards. Just in time, too. Pitchers and catchers are due at spring training in only 98 days.

Lobos: Players work on communication Continued from Page B-5 day when the Lobos open their season at home against Idaho State. Tipoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. and it will be televised on ROOT Sports. With half of this year’s roster new to Loboland and its three top players from last season’s team now playing professionally, UNM has its work cut out for it if it wants to sustain the kind of success it has enjoyed in recent years — three straight trips to the NCAA Tournament and seven straight years in the postseason. The jumping-off point is the spoken word. During individual film study with each of his players earlier this week, Neal said he and center Obij Aget ran into a snag when his 7-foot big man admitted he was confused about what play the team was running during that particular instance. His reluctance to ask led to a sloppy possession — something the coach wants to avoid. “If you don’t know, ask,” Neal said. “I think they’re trying to find themselves. With the new group I think they’re trying to find that communication, and that’s why I see us huddling up a lot more.” Neal would also like to get guard Deshawn Delaney back on track. A 6-foot-5 senior, he struggled offensively in the Lobos’ exhibition games against Western New Mexico and Adams State. He and 2-guard Hugh Greenwood are the only seniors on the team, mak-

ing his role in the leadership department that much bigger. “We’ve got to run plays for him early,” Neal said. “He’s a senior and he’s putting a lot of pressure on himself.” While Greenwood has looked comfortable in his role as a scorer and 3-point threat in this, his final season at UNM, Delaney shot just 5-for20 from the field in the exhibitions and was 2-for-11 from 3-point range. “It’s the final lap of an auto race like the Indy 500 and you gotta go,” Neal said of his seniors. “You come around that last corner and it kinda hits some guys in a different way.” Another issue is injuries. Sophomore point guard Cullen Neal may not play Friday because of a heel injury while highly touted power forward Jordan Goodman is still struggling to stay on the court while trying to work his way through rehab following offseason surgery. Craig Neal has said repeatedly that Goodman must make it through five consecutive practices before getting any playing time. He had just three straight workouts leading into the Idaho State game, making his status doubtful. He may, Neal said, get some time in Sunday’s home game against Cal State-Fullerton. For now, Friday’s starters will be the same as the exhibitions, assuming Cullen Neal plays: Greenwood, Delaney, Aget, Devon Williams and Neal. Arthur Edwards would start in Neal’s place if the situation called for it.

NOTES u The Lobos will leave Albuquerque on Tuesday and head to Puerto Rico for the ESPN Puerto Rico Tip-Off. They will face Boston College in the opening round on Nov. 20. u Idaho State head coach Bill Evans was an assistant at Montana when the Grizzlies lost to the Lobos in the 2010 NCAA Tournament. u UNM signed three players to scholarships during

Wednesday’s early signing period: guard Jordan Hunter, a 5-11 high school senior from Beaumont, Texas; Dane Kuiper, a highly touted 6-7 high school senior from Tempe, Ariz.; and high-scoring prep star Anthony Mathis, a 6-2 guard from West Linn, Ore. u The Lobos will wear special camouflage-accented uniforms against Idaho State, then wear turquoise-accented uniforms for Sunday’s game.

DALLAS — Dirk Nowitzki scored 21 points while playing only 20 minutes and the Dallas Mavericks 123 Mavericks had their 76ers 70 largest victory ever, 123-70 over the winless Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday night. The 53-point margin for Dallas surpassed its 50-point win over the New York Knicks in January 2010. At 0-8, Philadelphia is the only NBA team without a victory. The only time the 76ers have gone deeper into a season before winning a game was 1972-73, when they lost their first 15 games, according to STATS. The 76ers, who scored the last five points to avoid their largest loss ever, matched Utah’s 0-8 start from a year ago. The last NBA team with a longer losing streak to begin a season was the New Jersey Nets, who opened 0-19 in 2009-10, the worst start in NBA history. Dallas jumped out to a 7-2 lead in the first 2 minutes. That ballooned to 27-9 and eventually 38-10 by the end of the first quarter — the largest margin ever by the Mavericks through one quarter. Nowitzki then hit two more jumpers, his last of five baskets before halftime, as the Mavericks scored the first seven points in the second quarter. Their 73-29 lead for a 44-point bulge gave them their biggest halftime lead ever. Two nights after needing one of the biggest comebacks in team history to beat Sacramento, coming from 24 down, the Mavericks had a lead of at least 30 points in the first half for the third time in their five home games this season. About the only highlight

for the 76ers — the NBA’s youngest team with players averaging just under 24 years old — was getting back last year’s NBA Rookie of the Year. Michael CarterWilliams played for the first time since surgery in May to repair the labrum in his right shoulder. He led Philly with 19 points on 6-of-19 shooting, and also had eight rebounds and five assists. BULLS 100, RAPTORS 93 In Toronto, Pau Gasol had a season-high 27 points and 11 rebounds, Derrick Rose scored 20 points before leaving with a sore left hamstring, and Chicago beat the Raptors. Jimmy Butler scored 21 and Mike Dunleavy had 14 as the Bulls won for the sixth time in seven games and snapped Toronto’s five-game winning streak in the matchup of teams with the best records in the Eastern Conference. Both teams are 7-2. Rose stumbled on a drive to the basket late in the fourth and was replaced by Dunleavy with 1:53 left, taking a seat at the end of the bench. Kyle Lowry scored 20 and James Johnson had 16 against his former team, but the Raptors lost for the first time in six home games this season. GRIZZLIES 111, KINGS 110 In Memphis, Tenn., Courtney Lee scored on a lob pass as time expired to cap a furious fourth-quarter rally, and the Grizzlies came from 26 points down to beat Sacramento. The outcome wasn’t decided until after a lengthy review by officials who were trying to determine if the inbounds pass from Vince Carter with less than a second left was tipped by the Kings, and also to determine if Lee got the shot off before the horn sounded. Mike Conley led Memphis with 22 points and 11 assists, while Marc Gasol had 20 points.

Dolphins: Bills last in red-zone TDs Continued from Page B-5 Ryan Tannehill shook off five sacks to throw late touchdown passes of 7 yards to Brandon Gibson and 8 yards to Landry. Tannehill went 26 for 34 for 240 yards, and Lamar Miller rushed for 86 yards. Miami trailed 9-3 before outscoring their AFC East rivals 19-0 over the final 18 minutes. The Dolphins improved to 6-4, their best record after 10 games since 2008. “To stay over the .500 mark, to win in the division and to beat the Bills, it’s a good night,” defensive tackle Jared Odrick said. “You have to start playing good football this time of the year,” coach Joe Philbin said. The Bills, trying to end a 14-year playoff drought, fell to 5-5 with their second loss in a row. Stymied by Buffalo’s front four in recent meetings, the Dolphins had scored one touchdown in 33 possessions against the Bills before late TD drives of 80 and 63 yards. That was quite a rally by a team that hadn’t won a close game all season. Otherwise stout defense did the heavy lifting for Miami, which scored a safety on a penalty. Quarterback Kyle Orton had an unproductive night and injured a toe late in the game. “We need to try to get better, and it starts with the quarterback,” Orton said. He didn’t say whether his injury was serious. The Bills, ranked last in the NFL in red-zone touchdown efficiency, mounted grinding drives of 67 and 85 yards on their first two possessions. But Miami held them to a field goal each time, and those were their best TD chances. The Bills have reached the end zone once in their past nine red-zone trips.

“In the first half we had two drives we didn’t finish,” coach Doug Marrone said. “In the second half we just didn’t play well.” With the Dolphins leading 12-9, Landry lost a fumble on a kick return, but their defense again dug in, and former Miami kicker Dan Carpenter missed a 47-yard field goal try. He made earlier attempts of 33, 21 and 46 yards. The Dolphins, also ranked poorly in red-zone efficiency, missed chances early themselves. They came away with three points from trips inside the 20 on their first two possessions, and didn’t reach the end zone until 42 minutes into the game. Miami led 10-9 before scoring a safety when Kyle Orton was flagged for intentional grounding from the end zone. Under pressure from Olivier Vernon, Orton threw a pass that landed closer to the Bills sideline than to any player. “I think it was the turning point in the game, and momentum really took over,” Odrick said. “The spirit of the Dolphins was within us.” The Bills padded their NFL-leading sack total while working against Miami’s makeshift line, reshuffled after left tackle Branden Albert’s season-ending knee injury last week. But Tannehill kept getting back up, and he finished with a passer rating of 114.8. “We knew what was on the line in this game,” Tannehill said. “I think we came out and executed well.” Orton’s rating was 69.7. He went 22 for 39 for 193 yards, and the Bills netted only 54 yards on the ground. Their top two running backs were out with injuries. Marrone said he’s not considering benching Orton — unless he’s seriously hurt — in favor of E.J. Manuel, the starting quarterback at the beginning of the season.

WRITING CONTEST

A

blanket of silent anticipation seemed to drape the citizens of Prague in Czechoslovakia on the morning of Nov. 17, 1989. In spite of the cold and dreary weather, 15,000 people gradually made their way toward Charles University — the starting place of a march to honor Jan Opletal, a young man who was killed during an anti-Nazi protest in 1939. The Soviet-backed government agreed to a public memorial march that would begin at Charles University and end at the national cemetery. The Berlin Wall had begun to fall just a week earlier, and change was in the air. Led by the Socialist Union of Youth, the increasingly large group began their memorial march in Prague as scheduled, carrying candles, posters and flowers commending the efforts of Opletal in opposing the Nazi regime. Rather than dispersing at the cemetery, however, the growing demonstration pressed forward into the more central plazas of Prague. By choosing to march farther into Prague, the protesters that day initiated what has become known as the Velvet Revolution — a series of nonviolent uprisings in Europe against the Sovietbacked regime that eventually ended communist rule in Czechoslovakia. “On the day of the first protests, the situation and the atmosphere was incredibly tense because no one knew what would happen,” said Katya Kocourek, a British historian of Czech origin who now works as a senior associate for a global risk management consultancy in London. “People were taking to the streets out of curiosity to see what would happen. And from the beginning, there was never any ambition to cause trouble. “I think one of the reasons that the atmosphere was so tense was because the students were up against police officers that were not much older than the students. For example, you could have a 19-year-old university student standing face to face with a 19-year-old police officer on the opposite side.” Young people, including teens, were a driving force in the movement, she said. Under the Soviet regime, Kocourek told Generation Next, “People survived by just going about their business and not writing or saying anything political. In 1989, with the fall of the Berlin Wall, young people began to question the Soviet regime. They started writing and speaking about politics, which was incredibly controversial.” As the size of the Czech demonstrations grew from 15,000 people to 500,000 over the next few days, the government became increasingly tentative. Inspired by the quote, “When, if not now? Who, if not us?”, youth in Czechoslovakia helped force the communist government out of power. A parliamentary republic was established on Dec. 10, 1989. “Ultimately,” Kocourek acknowledges, “The demonstrations had legitimacy particularly because they were initiated by the younger generation.” She estimates that more than 95 percent of the protesters involved in the demonstrations in the first 10 days were under the age of 25. “Because [the revolution] was started by a new generation, people began to see that the youth wanted change and to not live under the same government as their parents had.” As we mark the 25th anniversary of the Velvet Revolution and the Tiananmen Square protests in China — as well as the beginning of the end for the Berlin Wall — the role of youths as a revolutionary force in those countries should be recognized. In an effort to initiate political, social and economic change, young people from around the world helped lead the charge in public demonstrations and protests against their governments. More recently, revolutions in northern Africa and the Middle East have led to the reshuffling of the leadership and governance structure of Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Syria and Bahrain. In many cases, blood has been shed. And although the record of activist youth serving prominently in post-revolutionary governments is mixed, some of these restructured governments embrace the values, ambitions and passions of their revolutionary origins. In comparison — and notwith-

for and by teens

Movements throughout history have shown the power of young activists, but are America’s young people too cozy for a revolution?

SPEAK OUT What would it take to lead you to join or start a revolution?

Braulio Hernandez, Gonzales Community School “If they took equal rights in school away, I would be angry because it violates the law and it would be because of our race or how intelligent we are.”

Javier Gamboa, Capital High “If the minimum wage dropped, that would be something that would cause me to strike.”

standing the short-lived engagement and uncertain impact of the Occupy Movement of a few years back — America’s young people have remained largely passive and nonreactive in the face of endemic and deepening social and economic injustice. Santa Fean Lisa Law, a photographer and filmmaker best known for documenting the civil rights movement in America in the 1960s, finds contemporary American youth culture both mystifying and frustrating. For Law, apathy and indifference characterize the spirit of a majority of our nation’s young people. “I think that if teenagers in other countries need to uproot a president that is doing the wrong thing, they get out and march until they kick him out,” Law said. “I don’t think American teenagers would do the same. Life is too easy here because there is no bloodshed. Hypothetically, if we were going to be bombed tomorrow, then [teenagers] might think about getting out on the street and doing something. But because they have everything they need and there is no bloodshed, they don’t need to resist or demonstrate for anything.” Kocourek believes that youth activism around the Western world may be on the decline: “I think that youth throughout the Western world are perhaps more apathetic than before. The ’80s were a heady time, but we live in a very different era now. Today, many people consider themselves to be individuals and separate from the whole. In the communist system, youth were a collective entity; they felt they had a shared set of problems. “We live in a world where youth can be more apathetic. The number of young people who vote has dropped because they aren’t interested in national politics anymore.” A recent article from The Guardian in London indicates that preliminary exit polls suggested 18- to 29-year-olds made up just 13 percent of America’s midterm electorate earlier this month, down from 19 percent in the 2012 presidential election.

In contrast to the values and actions expressed by youth during the Velvet Revolution, cultural norms in America and many European nations center more on issues of social engagement, technology and entertainment rather than social and economic justice policy. Carl Pickhardt, a psychologist who specializes in adolescent-parent relationships, told Generation Next, “Creature comforts are the enemy of social activism. A sense of powerlessness in a larger world doesn’t inspire engagement, either. Increasingly it seems, [American teenagers] favor letting other people take the lead on social change.” Kocourek sees little opportunity for a broad-based, youth-driven social revolution commanding center stage in the years to come. “I think it’s very unlikely that what happened in 1989 would ever repeat. It’s not the Cold War any more. The demonstrations in 1989 were political. Now, social movements or revolutions are driven by economics.” At 71, Law’s activist spirit and her passion for social and economic justice leads her to urge youth to become more engaged regardless: “Teenagers should go after the truth. They should question authority. Everything that happens on the news, figure out why it’s happening in historical context and how it’s affecting you.” At a time when Facebook and Twitter are among the tools of revolutionaries, connectedness could be a potent force for change and transformation. But it could take looking up from computer screens to begin seeing the world as it really is — for its beauty, suffering and injustices. The inherent creativity, idealism and courage of youth can be powerful forces for betterment in the world — as has been sometimes demonstrated overseas. “Whatever your cause, it has to be good,” Kocourek said. “Whatever you do in your community, it has to have a positive outcome.” Eliza Harrison is a senior at Santa Fe Prep.

Luis Chacon, Capital High “If they started a dress code, I’d feel upset because I would’t have my own individual freedom to express the way I like to look.”

Javier Talamantes, Capital “Probably band. Musical classes in general. In band you can relate with other students, so yeah.”

MY VIEW ISABEL YOUNG DE KATONA

Does America need a revolution? Not exactly

R

evolution is a big word — one that implies an upheaval of society as a whole, with repercussions and benefits for all involved. Merriam-Webster defines it as both “the usually violent attempt by many people to end the rule of one government and start a new one,” and “a sudden, extreme, or complete change in the way people live, work, etc.” Whichever definition one decides to use, it is difficult to comprehend the massive changes that may be inflicted. The idea of revolution in the United States today might sometimes surface among youth — though such an action does not seem to be on the horizon. The allure is undeniable. Brave rebels, fighting for the good of the people against the tyrannical government, are common characters in adventure stories. But is the state of this country at such a low point as to warrant an overturn of the system? A government overthrow conjures up images of rioters plaguing the streets, leaders being killed or exiled, and the rebels taking control of the system. A social revolution describes a situation where the government itself is not changed; instead, the cultural values and actions of the society may be. An economic revolution is one of a reversal of economic standards and inequalities in the society — think of the efforts of the Occupy movement, which really didn’t succeed in doing much along those lines. Stanford University freshman Luis Ornelas — a graduate of Santa Fe High School — believes a another kind of revolution is required: “We tend to have a sense of extreme comfort, and as a result, we become dissociated from events and topics that actually matter. In this sense, I firmly believe

that there should be a revolution of thought.” This idea brings to mind the Age of Enlightenment, a time of immense modifications to society’s way of thinking. A revolution like that could result in a lean to the left or the right politically, or it could change the very essence of how Americans perceive the world, which, looking at the way the country is headed as of now, might be a good thing. It seems the American people turn a blind eye too often and allow elected officials to continue enacting policies that harm not only us but the country they are supposedly serving as well. The monopoly the corporations have on business and politics restricts the rights of the people, as seen in the recent United States Supreme Court case Burwell v. Hobby Lobby — in which Hobby Lobby was granted the right to deny coverage of certain forms of contraception based on the company’s religious beliefs. Multimillion-dollar businesses have “personhood” status, meaning their freedom is considered equal to an individual’s. But do I think we should have a revolution? A full-blown, take-downthe-government revolution? No. The founders built a pretty reliable system, and our ability to both expand on and improve upon that system has proven to be immense. But the current mindset of Americans — be it by showing outright contempt for everything political or becoming a one-party devotee or fanatic — has the potential to harm the future of the country. If that is not addressed, it will come back to bite us all. Which won’t stop us from marching. Isable Young de Katona is a senior at Santa Fe High. Contact her at izzyskicks@gmail.com.
