Transparency issues cloud governor’s race Candidates failing to deliver on pledges By Steve Terrell The New Mexican

Transparency. Open government. Sunshine. Virtually every candidate for

elected office embraces these themes while campaigning, promising to minimize government secrecy. It certainly was part of Republican Susana Martinez’s successful campaign for governor in 2010. The same was true of Democrat Gary King’s successful campaigns for attor-

ney general in 2006 and 2010. But both Martinez and King, now running against each other for governor, have had clouds over some of their sunshine efforts. Both have been sued for alleged violations of state public records laws. In one case, news organiza-

tions sued Martinez’s Human Services Department and the Attorney General’s Office for refusing to release a controversial audit of 15 mental health

Several superintendents from the state’s largest school districts testified before the Legislative Education Study Committee on Tuesday that while the state’s new teacher evaluation system has its benefits, the data collection behind it remains unclear and problematic. For example, the Albuquerque Public School District reported receiving four different evaluation results over the course of three months for certain groups of teachers. And the evaluation results for some Albuquerque teachers who previously had worked at different districts were sent to their former districts, breaching personnel confidentiality guidelines. More than 200 teachers in the Rio Rancho School District were categorized in incorrect groupings. Some teachers in that district were given credit for classes they did not teach. And some teachers with the same Standards Based Assessment data received different points for the data. In the small Cuba school district, one teacher who taught reading and social studies and another who taught math and science were both scored on math and reading data, though neither taught both subjects. And some special education teachers said they felt they did not get a fair shake from administrators who evaluated them, since so much of their classroom work revolves around meeting students’ Individualized Education Plan goals with teaching methods that most principals do not understand and cannot easily

Union finds response to sick patient lacking By Patrick Malone The New Mexican

Doctors are confident that a patient treated Monday at Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center who recently traveled to Africa does not have the Ebola virus. But the response to the scare raised serious questions about how prepared Santa Fe is for an actual case of the disease. “We are trained for screening for Ebola, but I think the policy could be better as to what to do after we screen patients after they walk in the door,” said one nurse who treated the suspected Ebola patient Monday. She spoke to The New Mexican about the experience on condition of anonymity. The last coordinated drill at St. Vincent to simulate biological and chemical disasters was April 26, according to a hospital spokesman, and the last time emergency department staff was trained in donning full protective gear, the recommended dress for treating Ebola patients, was April 20. Both predate the growing concern over Ebola in the U.S. by months. At the same time Santa Fe’s only general hospital was treating the patient Monday, an email landed

Turkish airstrikes complicate ISIS fight NATO partner only hits Kurdish rebels inside its borders By Julie Pace and Suzan Fraser The Associated Press

The Turkish airstrikes occurred Monday and marked the country’s first major strikes against Kurdish rebels on its own soil since peace talks began two years ago. The strikes came amid anger among the Kurds in Turkey, who accuse the government there of standing by while Syrian Kurds are being killed

The U.S. has been pressing Turkey — a NATO ally — to take a more active role in the campaign to destroy the Islamic State group, but the Turks have said they won’t join the fight unless the U.S.-led coalition also targets Syrian President Bashar

2 STORMS, 2 TARGETS: BERMUDA AND HAWAII Surfers ride the waves in the waters Tuesday at La Pared Beach in Luquillo, Puerto Rico. Hurricane Gonzalo grew into a major Category 3 storm Tuesday and is expected to strengthen further as it heads toward Bermuda after killing a man in the Dutch Caribbean territory of St. Maarten, authorities said. Forecasters said Gonzalo could become a powerful Category 4 hurricane Wednesday. In the central North Pacific, Tropical Storm Ana is expected to become a Category 1 hurricane Wednesday morning. The entire Big Island of Hawaii would be affected if Ana stays on its projected path. RICARDO ARDUENGO/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

In brief Hong Kong police clear tunnel and activists HONG KONG — Hundreds of Hong Kong police officers drove protesters from a tunnel in the dead of night in the worst violence since the street demonstrations for greater democracy began more than two weeks ago. Officers, many with riot shields and wielding pepper spray, dragged away dozens of protesters, tore down barricades and removed concrete slabs the protesters used as road blocks around the underpass. The clampdown comes amid increasing impatience in Beijing over the political crisis in the semi-autonomous Chinese territory. A front-page editorial Wednesday in the People’s Daily, the ruling Communist Party’s mouthpiece, condemned the protests and said “they are doomed to fail,” the commentary said, referring to the activists. “Stability is bliss, and turmoil brings havoc,” it said.

North Korean leader’s cane remains a mystery SEOUL, South Korea — After vanishing from the public eye for nearly six weeks, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is back, ending rumors that he was gravely ill, deposed or worse. Now, a new, albeit smaller, mystery has emerged: Why the cane? Kim, who was last seen publicly at a Sept. 3 concert, appeared in images released by state media Tuesday smiling broadly and supporting himself with a walking stick while touring the newly built Wisong Scientists Residential District, part of his regular “field guidance” tours. The North didn’t say when the visit happened, nor did it address the leader’s health.

3 dead believed to be publisher, family DUNCAN, Okla. — Three people found dead in an Oklahoma home are believed to be a newspaper publisher, his wife and daughter, police said Tuesday. Duncan Police Chief Danny Ford said autopsy results are pending but that as far as investigators can tell, the bodies are those of John and Tinker Hruby and daughter, Katherine. “We are treating this as a triple homicide,” Ford said. John Hruby was the publisher of The Marlow Review, a weekly newspaper with a circulation of about 3,500, where his wife also worked. Todd Brooks, the news and sports editor at the newspaper, said Tuesday the staff was still in shock.

Attorney general to be named after elections WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama does not plan to announce his choice for attorney general before the November elections, shielding the nomination from the midterm election politics while setting up a potential year-end showdown with the lame duck Senate. Senate Democrats have asked Obama to wait so controversy doesn’t arise over whether they will support a specific nominee, and the delay gives Obama more time to consider his options. A White House official told The Associated Press Tuesday that the president has not yet decided who he wants to replace outgoing attorney general Eric Holder, a longtime friend who has led the Justice Department the entire six years.

oil-and-gas extraction technique. The report, which appears in the November issue of the journal Seismological Research Letters, identified nearly 400 tremors on a previously unmapped fault in Harrison County between Oct. 1 and Dec. 13, 2013. That included 10 quakes of magnitudes of 1.7 to 2.2. The quakes fell along a fault lying directly under three hydraulic fracturing operations and tended to coincide with nearby activity, researchers found.

SEOUL, South Korea — After an avalanche of data breaches, South Korea’s national identity card system has been raided so thoroughly by thieves that the government says it might have to issue new ID numbers to every citizen over 17 at a possible cost of billions of dollars. The admission is an embarrassment for a society that prides itself on its high-tech skills and has some of the fastest Internet access. The issue came to a head after 20 million people including the president, Park Geun-hye, were victims of a data theft at three credit card companies. Park acknowledged in January change was needed and ordered a study of possible options. A decision is due later this year. Rebuilding the system and tightening security could take up to a decade, according to Kilnam Chon, a researcher known as the “Father of the Korean Internet” for his pioneering work in online technology in the 1980s. “The problems have grown to a point where finding a way to completely solve them looks unlikely,” said Chon. Ahn Seong-jin, a Seoul office worker, lost $4,700 in a high-tech crime wave after hackers posing as a friend asked for a loan in a computer message. Details that included a national ID number stolen from the friend’s social media account made the plea look plausible. Five minutes after Ahn sent the money by smartphone, the real friend sent a message warning him someone might be using his name. Ahn called his bank but the money was gone. “One of my colleagues came to me and said, ‘Hey, I got robbed too, and so did Mr. Lee,’ ” said Ahn, 37. ID numbers and personal details of an estimated 80 percent of South Korea’s 50 million people have been stolen from banks and other targets since 2004, according to experts. Those numbers stay with South Koreans for life and, instead of being picked randomly, are based on their age, sex and other details. They are used to confirm identity, get a job or government services and even to buy cigarettes. A thief who gets a number and a name to match can set up phone, email or bank accounts. The problems stem from South Korea’s enthusiasm for the Internet and information technology, which grew faster than security measures. Hoping to spur technology development, the government rolled out fast Internet access to nearly every home and business. About 85 percent of South Korea’s people are online and the country has 40 million smartphones. But critics say that instead of protecting users, the online identity system mandated by Seoul makes them more vulnerable to theft. Everyone is tied to identity numbers created by a dictatorship in the 1960s to control the public, with no thought to privacy. The first few digits are the user’s birth date, followed by a “1” for male or “2” for female and then other details. “Resident registration numbers’ usage across different sectors made them ‘master keys’ for hackers to open every door and steal whole packages of personal information from unassuming victims,” said researcher Geum Changho at the state-run Korea Research Institute for Local Administration. The agency carried out the study of possible new models for personal codes. “Even if their numbers are leaked, people are unable to change them, so hackers are constantly trying to obtain these numbers and are managing it easily,” said Geum. A new ID system would cost at least $650 million to overhaul government computers and issue cards, according to Kim Ki-su, a director at Seoul’s Ministry of Security and Public Administration. Costs to companies such as financial firms to redesign services could reach several several billion dollars.

S. Korea data breaches force ID overhaul

By Leanne Italie

NEW YORK — No holiday screams pop culture controversy quite like Halloween. So what’s the costume flap of the year? It might just be Ebola, as in Ebola zombies, bloody Ebola patients and faux protective gear. Twitter and other social media were abuzz leading into the holiday with talk of hazmat suits and respirators. Too soon? How about just no, said Philadelphia physician’s assistant Maria McKenna. One of her own, a Dallas nurse who at 26 is exactly her age, was diagnosed with the virus in the United States after she had helped care for a Liberian man who died at her hospital. The idea of riffing on the crisis for Halloween “definitely rubs me the wrong way,” said McKenna, who works with post-surgical patients at a hospital. “Normally I think that irony and humor is funny, but this thing with the costumes, is it really that funny? Ebola’s not even under control yet,” she said Monday by telephone. Halloween, falling on a Friday, is sure to be a big season for many costume sellers, including Ricky’s NYC. Some revelers are notoriously lastminute on costumes, so it was a bit too early to tell whether all the talk about dressing up as Ebola something or other will actually take off. Talk, after all, especially on social media, is cheap. If searches on Google are any indication, the Ebola crisis doesn’t match the Top 10 popularity of Elsa from Frozen, or even your basic Wonder Woman, among searches for DIY costumes. Regardless, the costume site BrandsOnSale went there. It’s selling an Ebola Containment Suit Costume for $79.99, complete with white suit emblazoned with Ebola face shield, breathing mask, safety goggles and blue latex gloves. “You are sure to be prepared if any outbreak happens at your Halloween party. This will literally be the most ‘viral’ costume of the year,” declares the online product description. The company’s chief executive, Johnathon Weeks, said he sold about a dozen of the costumes in the first week after its Oct. 8 launch. It was shared on social media 7,000 times Monday — the most shared item on his site. Word of the costume was greeted by some blowback from outraged members of the public, he said. “We don’t stray away from anything that’s current or controversial or anything like that,” Weeks said from his 127,000-square-foot warehouse in Banning, California. “If I told you we had a toddler ISIS costume in the works, your mouth would drop.” Does he? “I will definitely let you know when that goes on sale,” Weeks said. “I can tell you it will come complete with a fake machine gun.”

10,000 new Ebola cases a week possible By Somini Sengupta The New York Times

UNITED NATIONS — Schools have shut down, elections have been postponed, mining and logging companies have withdrawn, farmers have abandoned their fields. The Ebola virus ravaging West Africa has renewed the risk of political instability in a region barely recovering from civil war, U.N. officials said Tuesday, hours after the World Health Organization reported that new cases could reach 10,000 a week by December — 10 times the current rate. The head of the new Ebola Emergency Response Mission, Anthony Banbury, told the Security Council that none of the three most heavily affected countries — Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea — is adequately prepared. Only 4,300 treatment beds would be available by Dec. 1, according to current projections, and even those would not have an adequate number of staff members. The acceleration of new cases, if not curbed, could easily overwhelm them. Banbury painted a picture of substantial need. Only 50 safeburial teams are on the ground, he said, but 500 are required. “We are fighting for people who are alive and healthy today, but will become infected by Ebola and die if we do not put in place the necessary emergency response,” he said, speaking by a video communication link from Accra, Ghana, where the mission was established in late September. He went on to say that there is a small window of time before the outbreak expands to levels where it cannot be controlled. “We either stop Ebola now,” he said, “or we face an entirely unprecedented situation for which we do not have a plan.” The Security Council in

September passed a resolution that declared Ebola a threat to international peace and security. On Tuesday, it heard sobering alarms about Ebola’s widening impact on the region. Earlier in Geneva, the World Health Organization’s assistant director general, Dr. Bruce Aylward, told a news conference that the number of new cases could reach 10,000 a week in less than two months, compared with about 1,000 a week during the past four weeks. He also said that as of Tuesday, the total number of confirmed, probable or suspected Ebola cases over the course of the epidemic had reached 8,914, with 4,447 deaths. Aylward said the health organization was particularly focused on isolating 70 percent of new patients in the next two months and beginning to reverse the tide of the virus.

Pham released a statement Tuesday through Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital saying she is “doing well,” and the hospital listed her in good condition. The hospital CEO said medical staff members remain hopeful about her condition. She and other health care workers wore protective gear, including gowns, gloves, masks and face shields — and sometimes full-body suits — when caring for Duncan. Health officials have said there was a breach in protocol that led to the infections, but they don’t

know where the breakdown occurred. Frieden said he was fully aware of the fear among health care workers in Texas and around the country about the risks of contracting the virus should it spread further. In response, he said an on-site manager who is an expert in infectious diseases will be in charge of every step of the process, along with new training for health care workers. “Ebola is unfamiliar. It’s scary, and getting it right is really, really important because the stakes are so high,” he said, adding that he wishes the CDC had done more from the beginning.

COMMUNITY LECTURE

I Get All the News I Need from the Sports Section Sports players (or teams) are often described as being hot or cold, implying there is something inherently “streaky” about an athlete’s performance that extrapolates to the next try. Using data from 10 seasons of professional basketball and more than a century of major-league baseball, physicist Sid Redner argues that scoring is a memoryless random process — suggesting that the notion of a scoring streak is a fallacy and that win/loss records in professional baseball teams are similarly memoryless. Finally, he shows that our favorite pastime is getting progressively more competitive — no more dynasties or perennial losers. Sid Redner is a professor at the Santa Fe Institute.

Bishops resist gay family acceptance Russian hackers spy Vatican report urges shift to inclusion By Nicole Winfield The Associated Press

VATICAN CITY — A fight for the soul of the Catholic Church has broken out, and the first battlefield is a document on family values that pits increasingly alarmed conservatives against more progressive bishops emboldened by Pope Francis’ vision of a church that is more merciful than moralistic. On Tuesday, conservative bishops distanced themselves from the document’s unprecedented opening toward gays and divorced Catholics, calling it an “unacceptable” deviation from church teaching that doesn’t reflect their views and vowing to make changes to the final version. The report, released midway through a Vatican meeting on such hot-button family issues as marriage, divorce, homosexuality and birth control, signaled a radical shift in tone about welcoming gays, divorced Catholics and unmarried couples into the church. Its message was one of almost-revolutionary acceptance and understanding rather than condemnation. Gays, it said, had gifts to offer the church and their partnerships, while morally problematic, provided gay couples with “precious” support. The church, it added, must welcome divorced people and recognize the “positive” aspects of civil marriages and even Catholics who live together without being married. The leaders of the bishops’ meeting, or synod, that produced it stressed Tuesday that it was merely a working paper and was never intended to be a statement of church doctrine, but rather a reflection of bishops’ views that will be debated and amended before a final version is released on Saturday.

Still, its dramatic shift in tone thrilled progressives and gay rights groups, and dismayed conservatives already deeply uncomfortable with Francis’ aim to make the church a “field hospital” for wounded souls that focuses far less on the rules and regulations emphasized by his two predecessors. The document was remarkable both in what it said and what it didn’t say: Absent were assertions of Catholic doctrine present in most church documents that gay sex is “intrinsically disordered” and that couples who cohabitate are “living in sin.” In their place were words of affirmation and welcome. “The report, obviously composed under pressure, has easily given rise to some misinterpretation,” British Cardinal Vincent Nichols said Tuesday. “It is not a doctrinal or decisive document. It is, as stated in its conclusion, ‘intended to raise questions and indicate perspectives that will have to be matured and made clearer on reflection.’ ” Several conservatives who participated in the synod immediately distanced themselves from the report. The head of the Polish bishops’ conference, Cardinal Stanislaw Gadecki, called it “unacceptable” and a deviation from church teaching. South African Cardinal Wilfrid Fox Napier said the report didn’t reflect the opinion of the synod in its entirety and contained problematic positions. He hoped the final report “will show the vision of the synod as a whole and not the vision of a particular group.” “My worry is that the message has gone out — and it’s not a true message — that this synod has taken up these positions, and whatever we say hereafter is going to be as if we’re doing some damage control, which is certainly not what is in my mind,” he told reporters.

Raymond Burke, the head of the Vatican’s supreme court, told Catholic World Report that the document contained positions “which many synod Fathers do not accept and, I would say, as faithful shepherds of the flock cannot accept.” He accused the Vatican press operation of releasing “manipulated” information about the synod debate that didn’t reflect the “consistent number of bishops” who opposed such a tone. To some extent, he had a point. The Vatican has greatly reduced independent access to information about the closeddoor proceedings, withholding bishops’ individual speeches from public view, much to the dismay of Burke and other conservatives who want their side known. The only information released has been summaries of the day’s debate by the Vatican spokesman, whose briefings have reflected a general a tone of opening and welcome. The briefings made scant reference to gays at all, and yet the provisional report gave significant ink to the issue. The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, said while he only recalled one major speech about gays out of 265, it was likely that bishops’ written remarks covered the material and were reflected in the document. The big question looming is how the battle over the final document will shake out. The bishops themselves

elected a host of known conservatives to lead the working groups hammering out details of the final report. In an apparent bid to counter their influence, Francis appointed six progressives to draft the final document. The Vatican on Tuesday highlighted areas that will be debated in the coming days. In a summary of bishops’ reactions, the Vatican press office said bishops had “appreciated” the report but that some offered additional reflections “to bring together various points of view.” These bishops suggested that the final document highlight faithful Catholic families to avoid “a near-exclusive focus on imperfect family situations.” On gays, they said “prudence” was required “so that the impression of a positive evaluation of such a tendency on the part of the church is not created.” “The same care was advised with regard to cohabitation,” they said. The bishops noted that the word “sin” barely appeared in the document at all and that the final document must better explain the “law of gradualness” — a theological concept that encourages the faithful to take one step at a time in the search for holiness. Bishops are concerned that an emphasis on that concept can lead to confusion about whether Catholics really must follow church law to the letter on hotbutton issues like contraception.

ISIS: Turkey wants to avoid aiding Kurds and U.S. to attack Assad Continued from Page A-1 Assad’s government. The Obama administration sees those as separate fights and has no appetite to go to war against Assad. Officials from Ankara participated in Tuesday’s meeting at Andrews Air Force Base, Md. A U.S. military official familiar with the talks said the chiefs of defense agreed to recommend to their governments that they continue to move forward together against the extremists, “to contribute capabilities best suited to each nation, and to take action to build on the successes already achieved by coalition efforts on the ground and in the air.” The official

requested anonymity for providing the information. Earlier Tuesday, the U.S.-led coalition stepped up attacks on Islamic State targets in Kobani, launching 21 airstrikes in and around the town. One of the strikes targeted the Tel Shair hill that overlooks parts of the city, according to Idriss Nassan, deputy head of Kobani’s foreign relations committee. Nassan said Kurdish fighters later captured the hill and brought down the black flag of the Islamic State group. However, the extremist group still controls more than a third of the Kurdish town. While the White House has tried to point out progress in the campaign

against the militants, the government is also preparing the American public for a military effort that could extend well beyond Obama’s presidency. Officials acknowledged Tuesday that the airstrikes in Kobani may not be enough to prevent a militant takeover, given the lack of an effective fighting force on the ground. “We certainly do not want the town to fall,” White House spokesman Josh Earnest said. “At the same time, our capacity to prevent that town from falling is limited by the fact that air strikes can only do so much.” Syrian Kurds have been begging the international community for heavy weapons to help bolster their defense

of Kobani. They’ve also called for Turkey to open the border to allow members of the Kurdish militia in northwestern Syria — known as the People’s Protection Units, or YPG — to travel through Turkish territory to reinforce the city. So far, both requests have gone unfulfilled. The Kurds of Syria and Iraq have become a major focal point in the war against the Islamic State group, with Kurdish populations in both countries threatened by the militants’ lightning advance. Syrian and Iraqi Kurds took part in cross-border operations to help rescue tens of thousands of displaced people from the minority Yazidi group from

Iraq’s Sinjar Mountain in August. Turkey is wary of the Syrian Kurds and their YPG militia, which it believes is affiliated with the Kurdish PKK movement in southeast Turkey that has waged a long and bloody insurgency against Ankara. The U.S. considers the PKK a terrorist group. The PKK and Turkey agreed to a cease-fire last year, but the agreement has begun to unravel. Asked about the reports of a resumption in strikes against the Kurdish rebels, Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said Tuesday that Turkish forces took the “necessary measure” following intense “harassing fire” by the rebels on a military outpost.

They had at least one patient wanting to check themselves out right away. Families that were coming in, the patients in the hospital and the health care workers themselves were scared.” Many of the Ebola fears gripping residents of New Mexico are unwarranted, according to Dr. Michael Landen, an epidemiologist with the state Department of Health. Risk of exposure to Ebola primarily exists in the African nations of Liberia, Sierra Leone or Guinea, he said. Barring travel between the state and those nations during the past 21 days, New Mexicans face little risk of exposure. “Unless someone’s traveling from those three countries, or someone arrives in New Mexico from one of those three countries — either a national from one of those countries or say a health care worker — there really isn’t any introduction of Ebola into New Mexico,” Landen said. Even the Dallas cases pose little risk to residents of New Mexico, he said. But Landen acknowledged that the Texas cases underscore the heightened risk that health care workers face when treating Ebola patients. “It’s important that the front-line health care workers are concerned,” Landen said, “and it’s very important that institutions work together to determine the best approach to protecting their direct-care workers.” As concerns about Ebola in the U.S. have grown in recent weeks, the state Health Department has been encouraging hospitals and medical providers to take precautionary steps recommended by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

2:40 p.m. she was put in an ambulance and arrived eight minutes later at the emergency room at St. Vincent. City dispatchers informed the hospital of the patient’s possible Ebola exposure ahead of the ambulance’s arrival. The ambulance used a back entrance to the hospital, giving the patient direct access to an isolation room, according to the nurse who helped treat the patient. The medical team involved had access to ample protective attire, a mix of hazardous materials suits and basic additional protective covers, the nurse said. “It was a scare and it was a frenzy because everybody’s worked up about this world situation that’s happening,” the nurse said. “But I feel we did good as a team.” The crew that transported the patient to the hospital stayed in the ambulance while hospital staff took the patient to an isola-

tion room. The ambulance personnel shed their clothes and placed them in biohazard bags, showered at the hospital’s emergency department and put on “scrubs,” according to Cliburn. About an hour after arriving at the hospital, they learned doctors had determined the patient was not an Ebola risk. Doctors determined the patient’s symptoms were not consistent with Ebola, and her travels to Africa did not take her to the areas where the risk of contracting Ebola is highest. “The main thing is that the city of Santa Fe’s first responders acted quickly and decisively, out of an abundance of caution, and took all the right steps to contain a potentially dangerous situation,” Mayor Javier Gonzales said. More preparation and training for dealing with Ebola are planned for the city’s first responders, he said. Already, the city’s dispatch

center is applying Centers for Disease Control recommendations for identifying potential Ebola cases by asking a list of questions that could tip responders to potential cases of the disease. Dr. John Beeson, chief medical officer at St. Vincent, said he believes the hospital responded well Monday, and he is satisfied that the hospital is as prepared as any in New Mexico to deal with an actual case of Ebola. He said the hospital has added to its cache of protective clothing to assure the medical staff’s safety, and he said “some runthroughs” are planned to better prepare personnel for the possibility of an Ebola patient. Beeson said the hospital has

begun asking patients about their travel histories in order to identify high-risk patients who might need to be isolated. The state Health Department plans to review the hospital’s response to Monday’s scare to determine whether it should have done anything differently. “The key evaluation of preparedness would be if we had a case,” said Landen from the Health Department, “which we’re hoping we don’t have.”

Ban: New member may vote to lift limit Continued from Page A-1 the County Commission and another vote is likely to occur. Mora is the only county in the nation that has adopted such a ban. Griego said that, in the end, he followed his conscience. With his change of mind, Mora County’s ban on drilling survived on a 2-1 vote. “I persuaded myself to vote that way. I didn’t succumb to pressure,” Griego said in an interview. His two colleagues had made their stands clear all along. Commissioner John Olivas voted against repealing the ordinance. He said no community should be bullied by the oil and gas industry into accepting the medical and environmental dangers of fracking, a process to extract oil and natural gas from deep underground. In contrast, Commissioner Paula Garcia voted to end the ban. It has led to two lawsuits against the county for interfering with corporate and property rights. Garcia also opposed the ordinance to ban fracking when it was introduced last year. She said the ban is not the best strategy to protect Mora County, a place with 4,800 people and panoramic scenery that on Tuesday included wooded areas exploding with the reds and yellows of fall. Signs opposing fracking dotted the country roads. Most in the audience that jammed a small meeting room in a volunteer fire department station had expected the commissioners to repeal the ban on oil and gas drilling. The room resounded with cheering after Griego voted to keep the law in place. By then, a sheriff’s deputy had ejected one spectator, Sophia Martinez of Wagon Mound. She had launched into a harangue against Commissioner Olivas, even though they agreed on the issue. The commissioners had previously allotted Martinez several minutes to comment on the fracking. She, like every other speaker, wanted the ordinance to stay on the books. But Mora’s ban on fracking may not last much longer. George Trujillo defeated Olivas in the June Democratic primary election and will take office in January. He said he is leaning toward joining with Garcia to repeal the fracking ban.

King: u Soon after Martinez began getting heat for conducting public business on private emails, Republicans revealed, through their own public records requests to King’s Attorney General’s Office, that King had conducted some official business on a private account — though in fairness, his office’s use of private emails wasn’t nearly as extensive as the Martinez administration’s. u In July 2012, an employee of Martinez political adviser Jay McCleskey filed a records request for “all leave request forms, or any other documents, including emails, requesting leave” for four King staffers for all of 2009 and 2010. The office supplied more than 12 pages documenting all the leave taken by the employees during that period, but not any emails. The Martinez camp took this to mean that emails had been deleted, which King denied. u While both candidates have been sued over alleged public records violations, King actually has been fined for a violation. In 2011, a state district judge fined King’s office $20,000 after ruling that the agency violated the records act by not honoring a lawyer’s request for records containing information about salaries of staff lawyers with the office. The lawyer, Dan Faber, represented three female staff attorneys who had sued King over claims that they were paid less than their male counterparts. An appeal of the fine is still pending before the state Court of Appeals. Last week, Martinez campaign spokesman Chris Sanchez repeated the Martinez mantra when asked about open government: “Gov. Martinez is running the most transparent administration in New Mexico history.” Sanchez continued: “She signed a law allowing production of records in electronic format. She signed legislation requiring the posting of meeting agendas 72 hours in advance. She posts her calendar online — the first governor to do so.” Sanchez also pointed to Martinez’s practice of webcasting and recording legislative meetings. Often when faced with criticism on the topic of open government, Martinez spokesmen have fired back that the other side is even worse. For instance, in the case of the missing Orlando emails, Martinez’s campaign pointed to old news reports that previous governors Richardson and Gary Johnson avoided using official government email accounts. State archivist Linda Trujillo, in an interview last week, verified that Johnson’s administration, while shipping “hundreds of boxes” of documents to the state archives, left no electronic messages with the archives. Trujillo said that while Richardson’s administration did leave the archives “millions” of emails, there were very few from Richardson himself. And, of course, Martinez has pointed to the Legislature, which in 2013 voted to declare its members’ own email off-limits to public records requests. Lawmakers claimed their emails to and

from constituents weren’t public records, even if the correspondence was done on their state email. King, in a recent phone interview, said a major difference between him and Martinez is that his office has tried to comply with public records laws while Martinez “ordered her staff to use private emails to get around [the law].” King said the case in which he was fined stemmed from a federal sex discrimination suit. A federal judge had ruled that lawyer Faber should not file the public information request with King’s office. King maintained he was following an order from the judge in the federal court to put on hold all exchange of information between the two sides. But Faber filed a complaint in state court charging a violation of state public records law. A state district judge agreed with Faber and fined King. As for using his private email address, King said there have been cases in which people he knows have contacted him about state business on his personal or campaign emails. He said when this happens, he forwards the message to the appropriate staffer at their government email. This was the case in a June 2011 email — which was criticized by the state Republican Party — from a man asking about an attorney general opinion. King forwarded it to his chief deputy. In the email, the man apologized for “using the wrong email” in previous attempts to reach King. King pointed out that he included this and other emails from his nongovernment accounts in a public information request from the state GOP. “It’s not against the law to conduct state business on private email,” he said. “It’s only against the law to do that to try to get around [public records laws], as the governor has done.” But for all the ballyhoo over government sunshine, there is serious doubt these issues will have much of an effect on the Nov. 4 election. Asked about that last March, Albuquerque pollster Brian Sanderoff said, “Most voters don’t pay that much attention to news stories about allegations of a lack of transparency.” Interviewed last week, Sanderoff said he hasn’t changed his mind, even considering the recent report about Orlando and the destruction of emails in the Las Cruces District Attorney’s Office. He described that controversy as “inside baseball for most voters” and said “Gary King is not in a position to exploit it.” “With his limited funds, when he does start advertising on TV, he’s going to go for the biggest bang for the buck,” Sanderoff said. “Does he do an ad about [the emails], or he does he go with something about the economy or jobs or education? Boe’s advice to both candidates: “It’s better to get the information out there, explain it and move on. Don’t be afraid of transparency. It’s good for the state and good for the economy. The business climate is always better in countries where there’s more transparency. I think that’s true on the state level as well.”

COMMENTARY: RAMESH PONNURU

Immigration reform remains dead

W

ould a Republican takeover of the Senate improve the prospects that an immigration bill will get to President Barack Obama’s desk? That theory is making the rounds — and some of the people who oppose the dominant approach to immigration reform are starting to worry about it. The theory goes like this: A lot of Republicans, having just taken full control of Congress and seeking the presidency in 2016, will want to show that they can govern. And many of them think that they need to deal with immigration, in particular, to do so. The idea is that passing a reform bill would help the party appeal to Hispanics and take the issue away from Democrats in the presidential campaign. It could happen, but I’m skeptical. First: It isn’t clear that John Boehner and Kevin McCarthy, the top two Republicans in the House, would be willing to divide their party over this issue. The Senate isn’t the obstacle to legislative success; it passed a bill last year that would have offered a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants, expanded legal immigration and boosted security at the Mexican border. The House is widely assumed to have at least a small majority for that bill too — but that majority, if it exists, would comprise most House Democrats and only a few Republicans. Enough Republicans oppose the bill bitterly that the House leadership hasn’t scheduled a vote on it. Are Boehner and McCarthy going to stop placating those opponents? There’s no great payoff for them: Immigration

OUR VIEW

A clean caboose is a step forward

R is a very low priority issue for most voters, so the praise for “governing” they’d get would mostly come from the nation’s editorial pages. And the assumption that passing the bill will help Republicans appeal to Hispanics is questionable. Wouldn’t those Hispanic voters motivated by the issue notice which party had actually voted for the bill and cast their ballots accordingly? Second: Are we sure that the House will still have a majority for the immigration bill next year? The momentum in the midterm elections seems to be on the side of its opponents. A lot of Republicans drew the lesson from Rep. Eric Cantor’s surprise primary defeat that backing the bill is risky. Third: Unilateral action by the president on immigration could further decrease the

likelihood of action. In 2012, the Obama administration, seeking to keep congressional Republicans from getting a bipartisan victory on the issue, granted an executive-branch amnesty to people who came here illegally as minors. White House officials have been talking about granting a more sweeping amnesty after the next elections. Unilateral action would deeply anger even those Republicans who favor the bill, and enrage those who oppose it. Republicans are going to be even less eager to work with the administration on immigration afterward. A bill along the lines of the one the Senate passed has been consistently favored by business groups, unions, editorialists and both parties’ leaders for years. Yet they’ve proven unable to get

it enacted under just about every possible partisan configuration of power in Washington. A Republican president and a Republican Congress couldn’t do it. Neither could a Republican president and a Democratic Congress, or a Democratic president and a Democratic Congress, or a Democratic president and a split Congress. My bet is that the pattern continues next year, under a Democratic president and a Republican Congress.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Thanks to Masons for preserving temple

P

erformance Santa Fe is delighted to hear that the Scottish Rite Temple (“Historic Scottish Rite Temple is no longer up for sale,” Oct. 8) will remain just that. This magnificent building is not only a historical landmark of mystery to many, but it is also an elegant venue for outstanding performances. Seating 320, boasting a starlit ceiling and hand-painted backdrops, the Scottish Rite has accommodated many of our productions. Our annual Community Opera has been performed there for the last five years, as well as the Festival of Song featuring Santa Fe Opera stars. The beauty of the building, kindness of the staff and experience of being surrounded by this treasure are priceless. Bravo to the members of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Masons of the Valley of Santa Fe for persevering through rough times and for seeing the value in what you provide to our community.

Tilting at windmills The discussion about eradication of Russian olives (and tamarisk, I am sure) in the Santa Fe River bed, Michael Smith and the city of Santa Fe (“City OKs volunteer S.F.

Amazing care I recently fell and had an injury that required almost three weeks at Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center. When the paramedics from the Santa Fe Fire Department arrived, I was frightened and in pain, and they were very kind, professional and gentle. Over the next three weeks, I was treated in the emergency room, operating room, the surgical Unit 3100 and the rehabilitation unit. Without fail, everyone, including the nurses and nursing assistants, physicians, rehabilitation therapists, case managers, radiology techs, lab techs, dietary staff and housekeeping staff, was superb. I have to thank the nursing staff, especially, because they were the ones with me around the clock: skillful, smart and compassionate. I have been a nurse for more than 40 years, including many years at St. Vincent, and cannot say enough about what these nurses mean to me. Thank you, everyone at St. Vincent for the amazing care I received!

ick Martinez, board chairman for Santa Fe Beautiful, deserves extra credit for working to make our city attractive. He isn’t just helping run the board for an organization dedicated to keeping Santa Fe beautiful (through the adopt-a-median program, anti-graffiti efforts or citywide clean-ups). No, Martinez has made it his own mission to look after the area at St. Francis Drive and Cerrillos Road — we’ve all seen it, the often weedy and neglected vacant lot where a graffiti-covered caboose sits. For one of the major intersections in town, the crossing is unattractive at best. But Martinez knows this can change. Long-term, he would like a mural on the caboose. But until that happens, he gets out there and paints over graffiti. This week, Martinez and sign painter Tom Hyland were hard at work. The work and the paint were donated, and Martinez received permission from the city and the Santa Fe Southern Railway, which owns the caboose. (Sadly, the railway, which ran a tourist train from the Railyard to Lamy, has halted operations.) With construction work coming to the intersection, the future of the caboose is up in the air. It will have to be moved for work on an underpass for walkers and bikers that will begin next year. The city could buy the caboose and turn it into something worth seeing — Martinez’s mural project, for example. Or, Santa Fe could lose that bit of history and the work of its upkeep. To be honest, as attractive as the caboose is when it’s not covered in graffiti, we’d rather see nothing there than a trashy, paint-smeared caboose. As one of Santa Fe’s busiest crossings, the entire plot at St. Francis and Cerrillos needs work. It is weedy, overgrown and dotted with trash too many days out of the year. Driving in to Santa Fe along Cerrillos or St. Francis, it appears that we are a city that doesn’t care about looking good. That needs to change. If part of the change can be finding a clean spot on the lot to place a spruced-up caboose, so much the better. As with the trash along the river (where Michael Smith is the hero weeding and picking up) Martinez is that rare individual who is stepping out to clean up the mess in front of everyone’s eyes. We need more individuals like Smith and Martinez, but more than that, we need a city that works harder to stay ahead of weeds and trash. Santa Fe can run social media campaigns (#howtosantafe anyone?) or advertise sunsets globally, but if the first thing a visitor sees are weeds and graffiti, we are selling a pig in a poke. Folks who live here deserve better, too. Thanks to neighbors like Rick Martinez, the caboose has a fresh coat of paint. That’s a start.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Oct. 15, 1914: One of the most important bridges across the Rio Grande to the whole length of that stream is to be erected at San Marcial, a bridge which will prove a great trade-booster and tremendous convenience to overland travelers. The county commissioners of Socorro County have authorized State Engineer French to draw up plans and specifications for a suitable bridge and Mr. French will proceed at once. Oct. 15, 1964: Texas and New Mexico have a “Mexican Exchange” program going on, as state Sen. Fabian Chavez of Santa Fe laughed the other day. He was referring to a planned visit into Texas to speak before Spanish-Americans on behalf of President Lyndon B. Johnson while at the same time U.S. Rep. Henry Gonzalez of San Antonio will be in New Mexico plugging Johnson in the Valley area of Albuquerque, in Taos, Mora and other northern areas. The two are among top speakers in the Viva Johnson organization — a group aimed at getting the Spanish American vote. Oct. 15, 1989: At the former Public Service Company of New Mexico power plant on the city’s west side, the groundwater has been contaminated by dumping and spills of toxic chemicals. It is only one of many in the county where groundwater pollution is found.

Newsmakers Driver in overdrive with album, series and film

Minnie Driver

LOS ANGELES — Talk about a career in high gear. Over the course of five weeks this autumn, Minnie Driver will have delivered a new album, performed in concert, appeared in a new big-screen musical and marked the start of the second season of her latest TV series when About a Boy returns to NBC. Based on the 1998 Nick Hornby novel and 2002 film starring Hugh Grant, the series spins around a man-child, the neighbor kid he befriends and that boy’s eccentric, sometimes overbearing mother, Fiona. Both Fiona and Driver can sing. In the show’s season-one finale, Fiona/Driver served up a spot-on a capella reading of the hymn “Will the Circle Be Unbroken?” Last week saw the arrival of Driver’s third album, Ask Me to Dance, for the Rounder Zoe label. Next month, she’s back in the music business, but as an actress on the big screen in the musical Beyond the Lights. Some 17 years after her Oscar-nominated role in Good Will Hunting, Driver isn’t taking her multi-faceted career for granted. “The grace of being 44 years old is that you wake up every day going: ‘This is my life and I am deeply, deeply grateful.’ ” The Associated Press

cary, most definitely, but not unsafe: That’s the assessment of aviation safety experts about an American Airlines flight during which the wall panels cracked loose, prompting an emergency landing at San Francisco International airport. The problem on the flight from San Francisco to Dallas began shortly after takeoff Monday afternoon, when passengers, still strapped into their seats, heard loud popping and ripping sounds. One said it sounded like bowling balls were falling from the overhead bins. Several plastic interior panels snapped out and became pinned to the window seats in one row, exposing insulation. Passengers called for flight attendants and watched nervously as they inspected the damage. It turned out to be a cosmetic problem — not a crack in the airplane’s skin that would have been far more serious — but the pilot decided to turn the plane around anyway after checking for himself about 45 minutes into the flight. There were no injuries among the 184 passengers and six crew members. Here are some things to know about the trouble: Question: What the heck happened? Answer: American Airlines says a duct between the panel and the metal skin of the aircraft failed and air forced the panels loose. The Federal Aviation Administration isn’t disputing that account. Question: Still, it sounds pretty bad. Why not turn around immediately?

Answer: The cabin pressure was normal and oxygen masks didn’t drop, meaning the problem was cosmetic, not a hole in the exterior. While planes can fly with a puncture in their skin, it is very dangerous. The aircraft was safe to fly, according to American and several aviation experts. Still, the decision to turn around also made sense. “In a day where we manage risk, why bother” flying on? asked Carol Giles, a safety consultant and former FAA aircraft maintenance division manager. Question: How often do these panels pop off? Answer: Not very. Several experts said they had seen it happen on other aircraft, either as pilots or passengers. Boeing, the manufacturer of the 757-200 aircraft, declined comment on whether the problem had happened before. Question: Was the plane just plain old? Answer: The Federal Aviation Administration granted the plane’s certificate to fly 19 years ago, according to government records. That makes it average age for American’s fleet, airline spokesman Matt Miller said. He wouldn’t comment on when it last went in for a heavy maintenance check that would have involved testing the ducts. All American planes are “in airworthy condition when dispatched for a flight,” he said. Question: Why would a duct like this fail? Answer: American will be trying to answer that at its maintenance facility in Oklahoma, where the plane was being flown Tuesday. There are various possibilities, among them a bad connection between two ducts, or a hole that wasn’t caught at an inspection. Or, “this kind of non-safety related part could just fail,” said John McGraw, an aerospace consultant and former deputy director in the FAA’s aviation safety service.

Lawsuit: Pastor had affairs despite AIDS diagnosis By Phillip Rawls and Jay Reeves The Associated Press

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — After listening to his sermons for 24 years, parishioners of the Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church probably thought they knew the Rev. Juan D. McFarland. But from the very pulpit where he preached about God’s love and service to the community, he delivered some stunning revelations: He had had affairs with women in the parish — and neglected to tell them he had AIDS. Perhaps because McFarland was so well-regarded, the church’s deacons initially had sympathy. “It was surprise, shock, but I think the leadership team did not react wanting to get him out. We wanted to get him help,” said James Long, vice chairman of the board of trustees. McFarland refused — and in a later sermon dropped another bombshell: He had been abusing drugs. That was enough. The deacons voted 80-1 to fire him on Oct. 5, but McFarland refused to leave, going so far as to change the building’s locks and the numbers of the church’s bank account before returning to the pulpit on

Oct. 12, Long said. On Tuesday, the first business day following his last appearance, the deacons Rev. Juan D. announced McFarland that they had filed a lawsuit to force McFarland out. The suit describes McFarland as a man practicing “debauchery, sinfulness, hedonism, sexual misconduct, dishonesty, thievery and rejection of the Ten Commandments.” It asks a judge to block him from serving as minister and give them control of the church complex, its bank accounts and a Mercedes Benz furnished for the pastor’s use. “We are just trying to minister to the flock and get the church back in order,” Long said. McFarland, 47, has not been charged with any wrongdoing. Knowingly spreading a sexually transmitted disease is a misdemeanor in Alabama punishable by up to a year in jail. Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church was founded in 1919. McFarland became pastor in 1990, and the church built a new complex near Alabama State University in 1993.

‘Manhattan’ to return for second season Studio: Series draws small audience but praise from critics By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

Despite middling ratings, the cable television series Manhattan will be returning to New Mexico to film a second season, the producers announced Tuesday.

The drama tells a fictionalized story based on the building of the atomic bomb in Los Alamos and the interpersonal conflicts among those working on the classified project. A studio news release said critics praised the show, though it has a relatively small audience average of 1.2 million viewers, according to Nielsen numbers. “We couldn’t be more thrilled with the show’s widespread critical acclaim and its loyal audience,”

Matt Cherniss, president and general manager of WGN America, said Tuesday in a prepared statement. Manhattan crews produced the first season in Santa Fe and Los Alamos earlier this year. In a March news release, the New Mexico Film Office stated that the production would employ about 200 New Mexico crew members, as well as more than 3,000 resident actors and background talent over the course

of the series. The New Mexico Film Office declined to comment Tuesday about the show’s renewal, saying the agency couldn’t say if the production would come back to the state. But the studio news release said the production would start filming the next season in spring 2015, and a spokeswoman confirmed that the production would return to New Mexico.

Santa Fe County commissioners on Tuesday voted to postpone a decision on a new county zoning map until next fall. Residents of several unincorporated communities in the county urged the delay, citing concerns about higher housing densities on the proposed map and inconsistencies with community land use plans. “This is a revolutionary step for our county, and it is really important that we do it right,” Commissioner Kathy Holian said. The commissioners had unanimously approved a Sustainable Land Development Code in December 2013, but it won’t become effective until the adoption of the zoning map, which was scheduled for a vote in December 2014. Also Tuesday, the commissioners delayed a vote on amendments to the land development code itself. County Growth Management Director Penny EllisGreen outlined three options for the commissioners on Tuesday. The first two called for the commission

Martinez widens gap in campaign cash war Oil industry is top campaign contributor By Steve Terrell The New Mexican

Incumbent Gov. Susana Martinez spent nearly $1.9 million on her re-election campaign in the past month, much of that going toward television commercials attacking Democrat Gary King. Republican Martinez widened her fundraising dominance over King, according to campaign finance reports released Tuesday.

tarting Wednesday night, more than 10,000 people are expected to watch independent flicks screening at art house theaters and other venues throughout the city. Many of them will stay in city hotels, dine at assorted restaurants and frequent a few bars, bringing in sought-after revenue during what’s normally a slow time for Santa Fe tourism. The influx is thanks to the efforts of the Santa Fe Independent Film Festival, now in its sixth year. The organization, led by Executive Director Jacques Paisner, Festival Director Liesette Paisner and co-founder David Moore, is experiencing its best year since its inception as a tiny, offshoot festival in 2009. “Breaking 10,000 is a real milestone,” Jacques Paisner said. “We always planned it would be something really great. We certainly didn’t think it would happen so fast.” The festival will host screenings from Wednesday through Sunday in theaters from St. Michael’s Drive to the Railyard. The Screen at the Santa Fe University of Art and Design has been booked for two nights, the Lensic Performing Arts Center in downtown Santa Fe for three nights, and the Jean Cocteau Cinema in the Railyard and the Center for Contemporary Arts’ Cinematheque on Old Santa Fe Trail every night during the festival. The schedule includes films across the spectrum, such as The Homesman by Tommy Lee Jones, shorts from local filmmakers, documentaries about The Nature Conservancy and military veterans, an advance screening of the HBO series Olive Kitteridge and plenty of smaller, independent flicks both foreign and domestic. The festival lineup also includes

Martinez reported taking in another $763,591. She spent about $1.87 million and had more than $2.7 million cash on hand. King raised $171,770, spent

$205,849 and had $123,651 in the bank, according to his report. King loaned himself another $1,000. He previously had loaned his campaign $535,406. More than $1.24 million of Martinez’s expenditures went to her consultant Jay McCleskey’s company to buy television and radio time for campaign ads. The campaign also paid an Albuquerque company, Red Tag Strategies, $220,325 for postage and to produce and print the colorful mailers that have bombarded New Mexico mailboxes — most, if not all, of which in the past month

have attacked King. And Public Opinion Strategies, a Republican consulting company for which McCleskey’s wife, Nicole McCleskey, works, was paid $87,000 for polling. Martinez, as she has before, attracted many large contributors. She received more than 50 contributions on this report that were for $5,000 or more.

A three-way forum for candidates seeking to represent the 3rd Congressional District in Northern New Mexico took an abrupt turn Tuesday night when Republican candidate Jefferson Byrd gave his opening statement and walked out. Byrd told the 25 or so people attending the League of Women Voters-sponsored forum that his campaign did not like the rules of the forum. He is running against incumbent U.S. Rep. Ben Ray Luján, a Democrat, and write-in candidate Thomas Hook. Reading a statement, Byrd said, “We have consistently requested that the Santa Fe League of Women Voters either allow you to ask your Jefferson Byrd questions directly of the candidate or to allow us information about the political affiliations of those screening your questions or to allow a member of each campaign staff to be part of the screening process.” Without transparency, Byrd said, he did not want to participate. “We are interested in an unfiltered exchange.” After finishing the statement, Byrd walked out. At League of Women Voters forums, members of the audience write questions on cards. The questions are then screened before being read by a moderator. League of Women Voters of Santa Fe County President Donna Reynolds expressed disappointment in Byrd’s surprise refusal to participate on the day of the event. “Voters lose when [candidates] don’t participate,” she said, adding that the league would not have advertised a forum with all three candidates had officials realized Byrd was going to stage a protest. League officials were surprised by Byrd’s walkout. “[The Byrd campaign] had complained about some rules, but they never said they weren’t going to participate until they made the statement,” Reynolds said.

investigations into students’ disappearances By E. Eduardo Castillo and Christopher Sherman The Associated Press

CHILPANCINGO, Mexico — The alleged leader of a drug gang implicated in the disappearance of 43 college students killed himself during a confrontation with Mexican security forces Tuesday, a day after protesters demanding an investigation into the students’ whereabouts burned government buildings in the southern state of Guerrero. Federal forces, which include federal police and military personnel, were carrying out an operation to capture Benjamin Mondragon, or “Benjamon,” the alleged head of the Guerreros Unidos gang in the neighboring state of Morelos, when a gunfight broke out, a federal official said. The official, who was not authorized to be quoted by name, did not say which federal force had taken part in the confrontation. Mondragon killed himself as he was about to be arrested, the official said, though he had no details on how. The official said it was unclear whether Mondragon had been involved in the students’ disappearances. Guerreros Unidos allegedly had ties to the family of the mayor of Iguala, the city in Guerrero where the students disappeared on Sept. 26 after a confrontation. Police in Iguala killed six people and carried off many of the students before reportedly turning them over to gunmen working for the gang, authorities say. Investigators are conduct-

School principal’s actions raise concerns about student safety By Robert Nott The New Mexican

The head of the National Education Association-Santa Fe teachers union says she believes the principal of Chaparral Elementary School has been putting some of his students in danger, and he hasn’t stopped the behaviors even though she has voiced concerns to his superiors. Teachers union President Grace Mayer said she has been fielding complaints from Chaparral staffers regarding Principal Michael Granado’s treatment of students for several months. Among the charges, Mayer said, is that Granado has strapped students into wheeled chairs and pushed them down the school’s inclined hallways as part of a game to reward them for good behavior. Granado, in an approved statement he sent through the school district Oct. 9, said several students took part in an activity as part of a fundraising event that resulted in a game

In brief Española cop charged with DWI State police early Tuesday arrested an Española police officer on charges of aggravated DWI and speeding while riding his personal motorcycle. Jose Martinez, 29, of Tierra Amarilla was arrested at about 1 a.m. after he was pulled over by a state police officer on U.S. 84/285, said Lt. Emmanuel Gutierrez, a spokesman for the agency. Gutierrez said Martinez was traveling 62 mph in a 45 mph

called “Principal Taxi Ride,” in which he pushed students in rolling chairs down a hall. “At no times Michael were students Granado unaccompanied or in an unsafe situation,” he said. The Santa Fe Reporter first reported the story Monday, noting that Mayer also said she has received reports that Granado punished students by making them stand in a “naughty box” space in the cafeteria defined by masking tape on the floor. She said students also eat food from their tray off the floor in front of the lunchroom. Granado denies this as well. Speaking by phone Tuesday, Mayer said that since she came on as the local NEA president in June, she has brought these concerns up to district personnel, including Superintendent Joel Boyd. “They may have spoken to him [Granado], but

he still continues to behave in ways that are inappropriate,” she said. She said it’s up to the district to decide if Granado should be disciplined or removed. She said the NEA has not filed any complaints or grievance reports regarding the matter with the district or the Public Education Department. District Chief of Staff Latifah Phillips said the district cannot comment on the matter because it is a personnel issue and currently under review. “Student safety is a top priority of this district,” she said. Granado earned his master’s degree in education and public administration from Texas Woman’s University in Denton, Texas, and a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from the University of Texas at Arlington. He has worked as an educator for about 25 years. The district hired him as principal of Chaparral at the beginning of school year 201314. At that time, he was retiring as a sergeant major in the Individual Ready Reserves in Iraq.

the festival’s success. The city’s diverse art galleries, assorted restaurants and plenty of outdoor options give people something to do beyond the festival’s screening schedule. Jason Silverman, director of the Cinematheque at the Center for Contemporary Arts, said the festival comes at the perfect time for the theater on Old Santa Fe Trail. Silverman said October is historically a slow month. “It’s definitely an injection of energy during that time,” he said. “It’s a good, demanding schedule.” Silverman also praised Paisner and his staff for pushing the festival into the national spotlight. Gemini Martinez-Kline, marketing director for the Jean Cocteau Cinema, said the festival expands the tourism season, always a good for the theater. And while the Jean Cocteau won’t make a large profit from ticket sales, the local theater will still likely see an increase in concession and alcohol sales. He also said the screenings would be good for nearby businesses such as the Cowgirl BBQ. Simon Brackley, president of the Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce, said he is impressed with the festival’s growth, especially given that it competes with similar productions across the country and state. And he, too, noted a mid-October event is great for the city.

Season: Art school students involved Continued from Page B-1 That’s great news for the area’s film and TV production community, in particular for students at the Santa Fe University of Art and Design. Paula Amanda, associate chairwoman of the school’s film department, said more than 25 students were involved as background actors and production assistants for the show’s first season. She said more students already have asked her to work with the production when it comes back next year. “Students have learned how to get jobs on their own without going through a formal campus process, which has been our intent all along,” she said in a prepared statement. Manhattan stars John Benjamin Hickey, Olivia Williams, Daniel Stern, Rachel Brosnahan and Ashley Zukerman. The show is produced by Lionsgate Television, Skydance Television and Tribune Studios. In other local film news, Stanistan, a USA network pilot, is set to wrap production in Santa Fe by Wednesday. Its show runner said the crew would return to Santa Fe if the network executives were satisfied with the pilot. The fate of Longmire, another stalwart show in the New Mexico film industry, is still unclear as studio executives shop the Western drama to network and digital streaming services. Manhattan’s season finale is scheduled to air at 10 p.m. Sunday on WGN. But for those who don’t have access, episodes also are available on Hulu.com.

several advantages to the delay, including “a much more complete document that would allow the board and public to see and weigh major policy decisions at the same time.” She also said there would be greater consistency between the Sustainable Land Development Code and the zoning map as well as the individual community plans and that more zoning options might be possible. Ellis-Green noted, however, that pushing back the deadline for adoption likely would require more resources and hiring a consultant. Several commissioners noted that there has not been a rush lately in proposed land use applications by individuals or developers, so staff members could likely handle the additional workload. They were also amenable to the hiring of a consultant to help out.

13 Farmington traffic officers have recently received training to become “drug-recognition experts,” so that they can better identify the signs that a driver is drug impaired, he said. The spike in Farmington comes just months after state officials announced alcoholrelated traffic deaths in New Mexico have reached a record low after falling sharply over 10 years. Numbers show the state saw 133 fatal alcohol-related crashes last year, a nearly 14 percent drop from 2012. That’s the lowest number of annual alcohol-related traffic deaths recorded in the state, and it marked a 38 percent decline from a decade ago, the governor said.

In another state race, Democrat Maggie Toulouse Oliver raised nearly twice as much money as her rival in the past month for her bid to become secretary of state. But Republican incumbent Dianna Duran has almost $40,000 more in the bank than Oliver. Duran’s report, filed Tuesday, said she raised $51,950, spent $9,389 and has $206,159 on hand. Oliver, who filed her report Monday, reported raising nearly $92,000 since early September and spending almost $164,000. Oliver had more than $148,000 cash on hand. The main reason Oliver has less money on hand is that she spent $130,00 on advertising. Her first television ad began running Tuesday. Duran has not yet purchased any airtime.

Thank YOU Santa Fe, Sponsors, Volunteers, Teams and Walkers for Helping Us Make Many Strides Towards a Cure for Breast Cancer! Just look at the numbers for this year’s event: · Over 1,500 people walked this year · $70,000 in donations were raised in Santa Fe · 70 breast cancer survivors participated · Our First Pacesetter Who Raised Over $2500 Congratulations Jodi McGinnis Porter raised over $3,800!

And some of the amazing women who walked: The Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk was much more than just walking on a trail or raising funds for research. At the event, we celebrated loved ones who have won their battle against cancer, we remembered those no longer with us, and showed our desire to continue to fight back against this disease by supporting those currently in the battle. We need to keep the fight against breast cancer in the forefront so that all women make it a habit to do self exams on a routine basis in order to catch cancer in its early stages. Women who are currently fighting cancer need to know that there IS hope and that they will always find support from survivors and the American Cancer Society. — Mary Helen Kelty I stood there in awe looking at over a thousand, men, women and children varying from those who can’t even talk yet to elderly women with survivor sashes across their precious bodies. In their faces you could see passion, strength, determination, but above all their love of life, and those walking together a sense of inspiration and hope that one day we will find a cure. Thank you to the amazing men, women, and children on team “Santa Fe Strong”, comprised of City of Santa Fe Employees and their families who rallied together to raise money and awareness to continue the fight against breast cancer. With the strength and spirit of Santa Fe we will continue to believe, together we can accomplish great things and end breast cancer forever. Everyone can make a difference!

A SPECIAL THANK YOU to all our friends for their IN-KIND donations and support of the 2014 Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk. Plus, a very special thank you to the City of Santa Fe Parks & Recreation Department who were extremely helpful and a joy to work with, Mayor Javier Gonzales, Councilor Carmichael Dominguez and the entire City Council, President of the Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce, Simon Brackley and his “Business Matters” show and Santa Fe Harley Davidson for their Pink Ride.

him with a Taser By Sadie Gurman The Associated Press

DENVER — A federal jury on Tuesday found five Denver sheriff’s deputies used excessive force against a homeless street preacher who died in the city’s downtown jail and awarded his family a record $4.65 million in damages, a verdict an attorney said should send a message to law enforcement everywhere. Marvin Booker died in 2010 after deputies shocked him with a Taser while he was handcuffed, put him in a sleeper hold and lay on top of him, apparently in an effort to control him. His family’s attorneys said that was a zealous overreaction to the 56-year-old, who was frail and suffered a heart condition. The city had argued the deputies’ actions were in line with the department’s policies for subduing a combative inmate. “He didn’t deserve what these five sheriff’s [deputies] did to him that night,” his

brother, Spencer Booker, said, fighting tears after the verdict. “The jury spoke very, very, very clearly that they used Marvin excessive Booker force against my brother. Your actions call for consequences.” The three-week civil trial came amid calls for a federal investigation of the department over other high-profile abuse cases that prompted the sheriff’s department to make sweeping reforms. Former Sheriff Gary Wilson resigned in July as the city agreed to pay $3.3 million to settle another federal jail-abuse lawsuit by a former inmate over a beating. It had been the largest payout in city history to settle a civil rights case. The all-white, seven-member jury began deliberating Friday and delivered its verdict just before noon Tuesday. “The community won’t tolerate this anymore, and things have to change,” Booker family attorney Darold Killmer said. “This verdict should reverber-

“dogpile” of deputies. “Mr. Booker was essentially doing a pushup with all those deputies on his back,” he said, adding that the department then tried to “whitewash” the incident with a shoddy investigation. Among other mistakes, Killmer said the deputy who stunned Booker submitted the wrong Taser for analysis and questioned whether the right one was ever found. Denver’s medical examiner said Booker died of cardiorespiratory arrest during restraint, and ruled his death a homicide. The report listed other factors in his death, including emphysema, an enlarged heart and recent cocaine use. Rice said Booker’s heart problems caused his death, and a healthier inmate would have survived the encounter. The deputies “hadn’t the slightest notion that Mr. Booker had a heart condition,” Rice told jurors. “The bad heart was the trigger.” Prosecutors declined to charge the deputies. Sheriff’s department officials never disciplined them, saying it was reasonable for the deputies to believe he could harm someone and that force was necessary to restrain him.

Appeals court reinstates Texas voter ID law Decision will temporarily allow rule to be used for upcoming election By Jim Vertuno The Associated Press

AUSTIN, Texas — A federal appeals court on Tuesday temporarily reinstated Texas’ tough voter ID law, which the U.S. Justice Department had condemned as the state’s latest means of suppressing minority voter turnout. The ruling by a three-judge panel of the New Orleansbased 5th Circuit Court of Appeals allows the law to be used in the November election, despite a lower judge’s ruling that the law is unconstitutional. The 5th Circuit did not rule on the law’s merits; instead, it determined it’s too late to change the rules for the election. The judge said the Supreme Court has repeatedly told courts to be cautious about latehour interruptions of elections. Early voting starts Oct. 20. “It will be extremely difficult,

if not impossible, for the state to adequately train its 25,000 polling workers at 8,000 polling places” in time for the start of early voting, the appeals court wrote. While some voters may be harmed, the greater harm would come in potentially disrupting an election statewide, the court said. The NAACP Legal Defense Fund promised a quick appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. The ruling represents a temporary but key victory for Republican-backed photo ID measures that have swept across the U.S. in recent years. Last week’s ruling from U.S. District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos — an appointee of President Barack Obama who likened the law to a poll tax designed to dissuade minorities from voting — remains under appeal. The Texas law, considered the toughest of its kind in the nation, requires that an estimated 13.6 million registered voters show one of seven kinds of photo identification to cast a ballot. The Justice Department says more than 600,000 of those voters, mostly blacks and

City officials did not return calls for comment. Booker’s family filed the federal lawsuit against the city and county of Denver as well as deputies Faun Gomez, James Grimes, Kyle Sharp and Kenneth Robinette and Sgt. Carrie Rodriguez. Inmates told investigators that the struggle began when he was ordered to sit down in the jail’s booking area but instead moved to collect his shoes, which he had taken off for comfort. Booker, who was arrested on an outstanding warrant for drug possession, was cursing and refusing to follow orders, according to the deputies’ account. He was restrained by deputies who got on top of him, placed him in a sleeper hold, handcuffed him and shocked him with a stun gun. During the trial, Booker’s attorneys told jurors deputies stunned him for too long and should have backed down when Booker said he was struggling to breathe. In his closing arguments, Killmer described a

Hispanics, lack eligible ID. Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, who had sought an emergency ruling from the conservative-leaning appeals court, is on the ballot as the Republican nominee for governor. Abbott spokeswoman Lauren Bean called Tuesday’s ruling “the right choice to avoid voter confusion.” A Justice Department spokeswoman said the agency was reviewing the opinion and declined immediate comment. Texas Democrats decried the ruling. “An intentionally discriminatory law should not be allowed to remain in effect,” said Texas Democrat Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa. Nineteen states have laws requiring voters to show identification at the polls. Courts across the country have knocked down challenges, including at the Supreme Court. But U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder brought the weight of his office into Texas after the Supreme Court last year struck down the heart of the Voting Rights Act, which had pre-

vented the state from enacting its voter ID law. The full Voting Rights Act had blocked Texas and eight other states with histories of discrimination from changing election laws without permission from the Justice Department or a federal court. Holder vowed to wring whatever protections he could from the weakened version, and made Texas a first target. Abbott, who is favored to win the race against Democrat Wendy Davis to replace Rick Perry as governor, said the law has support from minorities and whites alike. His office also pointed to other states, such as Georgia and Indiana, where similar measures have been upheld. But opponents slammed Texas’ law as far more discriminatory. College students IDs aren’t acceptable, but concealed handgun licenses are. Free IDs offered by the state require a birth certificate that costs as little as $3, but the Justice Department argued that traveling to get those documents imposes a burden on poor minorities.

PREP VOLLEYBALL DESERT ACADEMY 4, PECOS 1

Desert Academy earns tough win over Pecos By James Barron The New Mexican

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Kolten Wong sits in the dirt after the Giants won Game 3 of the National League Championship Series on a throwing error Tuesday in San Francisco.

It wasn’t the volleyball match the Desert Academy Lady Wildcats wanted, but it was the match they needed. Crisis management has not been Desert Academy’s strong suit this season, but it was the quality it had to exhibit Tuesday night in a District 2AAA home match against Pecos. The Lady Wildcats had Game 1 in their grasp — only to let it slip away. They rallied from a seemingly insurmountable 12-point

deficit in Game 3 — only to let the comeback wither on the vine. Pecos had Desert Academy on the ropes, leading 6-3 after Ida Valencia’s kill. But the Lady Panthers couldn’t put away the Lady Wildcats. Actually, it was the Lady Wildcats who took victory away from their guests. Thanks to three timely kills from Cassidy Hart and some unlikely heroes at the right moment, Desert Academy escaped Fort Marcy Complex with a hard-

Choate’s error sinks Cardinals in loss to Giants

Eye on the prize

Jaguars believe state trophy is within their reach

By Josh Dubow The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — A wild pitch, a wide throw and an 18-inning marathon. These playoff-tested Giants keep finding wacky ways to win in another special October. An errant throw by reliever Randy Choate on a bunt Giants 5 allowed Brandon Cardinals 4 Crawford to score the winning run in the bottom of the 10th inning, lifting San Francisco over the St. Louis Cardinals 5-4 on Tuesday for a 2-1 lead in the NL Championship Series. “Everybody’s saying: ‘How are the Giants doing it? How are the Giants winning games?’ ” said Gregor Blanco, who laid down the sacrifice. “We just really believe in each other. We play together.” Crawford drew an eight-pitch walk from Choate to begin the inning, ending a stretch of 16 straight Giants retired since Tim Hudson’s two-out single in the fourth. After failing on two sacrifice attempts, Juan Perez singled to bring up Blanco. Blanco fouled off a bunt try, too,

on’t consider this a plea for just Santa Fe High. After watching the past three weeks of district brutality the Demons and Demonettes endured, it’s pretty clear to see that Santa Fe High will soon return to its perch as the stepchild of Class AAAAAA. It’s pretty clear, also, that classification and alignment were not fair to the city’s flagship public school. But they aren’t the only ones with legitimate gripes, and maybe the New James Mexico ActiviBarron ties Association should try someCommentary thing bold. No, this isn’t about making drastic changes, like going back to five classes — or even four — or forcing teams that win three or more straight titles in a given sport to move up a class. It’s more in line with something more sensible, heck, maybe even fair. And it combines some old philoso-

esus Garcia has been getting medals and trophies in soccer ever since he started playing the sport as a 7-year-old, and that created an insatiable hunger to get more. “Each year I used to think, ‘I can’t wait to get my medal so I can hang it on my wall,’ ” he said. “Ever since I got my first trophy, I told myself that I need to get more. I always wanted more trophies.” Now the only trophy the Capital senior forward wants is the one every great high school soccer player has their eye on: A state championship trophy. The big, blue trophy has evaded Capital for the past several years. The Jaguars made it to the Class AAAA quarterfinals in 2010 and 2011 and made it

to the semifinals the following two seasons. The finals were so close when they lost to Farmington 1-0 in 2012 and to Albuquerque Academy 2-1 last year. That would take a lot out of most coaches, but head coach Eugene Doyle said getting to the semifinals the past two years only helps. “You get that far, and everyone on the team is hoping to get to that final, but you have to get there and learn how to be in that situation to be able to win,” Doyle said. “We have the experience of being in the semifinals two years in a row, now we need to get to the finals to get that experience to come out victorious.” And everyone on the current roster is getting experience. The Jaguars battled injuries for most of the season and did not have all their starters until a nondistrict match with Farmington on

Oct. 2, which they won 1-0. During that injury-riddled stretch, Doyle was using sophomores and even freshmen to fill the gaps. Although they were young, they were still contributing on the field as if they were four-year starters. That kind of depth gives the Jaguars hope when key starters go down. “Every guy is stepping up, and that’s what makes me proud as a captain,” Garcia said. “If I get benched, I can just sit back because these guys know what to do.” While the team has been accumulating deep postseason experience for the past few years, the biggest learning moment this season came in a 4-0 loss to Los Lunas at Jaguar Field on Sept. 18. “That loss actually woke us up,” Garcia said.

MOUNTAIN WEST CONFERENCE BASKETBALL

UNM men No. 3, women No. 9 in preseason poll The New Mexican

The men’s and women’s basketball programs at The University of New Mexico find themselves looking up, according to the media. The Mountain West Conference on Tuesday released the preseason media’s polls for both sports, and the men’s team earned enough points to finish third, while the women were a distant ninth. The UNM men are coming off a 27-7 record, a third straight NCAA Tournament appearance and the team’s third straight MWC Tournament championship, which is its

seventh conference title — regular season or tournament — in the last six seasons. The women’s program, which has 2012 St. Michael’s graduate Alexa Chavez on the roster and 2007 West Las Vegas grad Vera Jo Bustos as its video coordinator, went 11-19 and lost in the first round of the conference tournament. Men’s defending regular-season champion San Diego State received 34 of a possible 35 first-place votes for 383 points to earn the top spot in the poll, followed by Boise State, which got the other top vote. The

Sports editor: James Barron, 986-3045, jbarron@sfnewmexican.com Design and headlines: Eric J. Hedlund, ehedlund@sfnewmexican.com

Broncos outpointed UNM 275-270 for third, while UNLV nipped at the Lobos’ heels with 269 points. On the women’s side, Colorado State was the top team with 21 firstplace votes and 276 points, while Boise State was second with 241 points and four first-place nods. The Lobos tallied 122 points, which was a point fewer than Utah State and 11 behind San Diego State, which was No. 6 in the poll. Among individual honors, Wyoming senior forward Larry Nance Jr. was voted the MWC preseason men’s player of the year, while Aztecs

junior forward Angelo Chol took the newcomer of the year honor. UNLV’s Rashad Vaughn was voted the freshman player of the year. No Lobos made the preseason all-MWC team. For the women, Kayla Woodward, a senior forward for Wyoming, was tabbed the player of the year, SDSU’s MyKynzie Fort the freshman of the year and senior Camille Redmon of Boise State the newcomer of the year. UNM will hold its Lobo Howl at 6 p.m. Friday. Activities will include a three-point shooting contest and dunk contest. Admission to the event is free.

Prosecutor: Pistorius offered cash after killing By Christopher Torchia and Gerald Imray The Associated Press

PRETORIA, South Africa — Oscar Pistorius offered $34,000 to the family of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp after he killed her, but they rejected it because they did not want “blood money,” a prosecutor said Tuesday at the sentencing hearing for the doubleamputee athlete. Chief prosecutor Gerrie Nel also referred to separate monthly payments of $550 that Pistorius apparently did make to Steenkamp’s parents after they asked for help. Nel said those would be paid back in full. The revelations emerged while Nel was cross-examining a social worker over what Pistorius’ punishment

should be for shooting Steenkamp. The social worker testified that Pistorius should be placed under house arrest, rather than sent to prison, after his conviction for culpable Oscar homicide, or negliPistorius gent killing. Social worker Annette Vergeer, one of four witnesses called by the defense, said South African jails are violent and overcrowded and that the athlete would be under duress because of his disability and fragile mental state resulting from the night he fired four times through a toilet door in his home, killing Steenkamp. Pistorius testified he mistook her for

an intruder and denied prosecution assertions that he shot her during an argument. Additionally, Vergeer said, Pistorius — who in 2012 was the first amputee athlete to run at the Olympics — has the potential to be a productive member of society again. A sentence of house arrest and work at a school for disabled children would be more appropriate, she said. Prison “will not assist him but will break him as a person,” she said. Nel challenged Vergeer, saying her knowledge of the South African prison system was limited and out of date. He also asked why she didn’t mention in her report on Pistorius that she knew the family of the woman he killed turned down money. Outside the courtroom, a lawyer

for Steenkamp’s parents said they had asked him to contact Pistorius’ attorneys weeks after the Feb. 14, 2013, shooting because they were struggling financially. Pistorius offered them monthly payments and asked they be kept confidential, Steenkamp lawyer Dup de Bruyn said. Yet Steenkamp’s mother June referred to the other offer of $34,000 that the family rejected as “blood money” and asked Nel to call it that in court, de Bruyn said. “The words ‘blood money’ are her words,” de Bruyn said. Judge Thokozile Masipa found Pistorius, 27, not guilty of murder, concluding he acted hastily and with excessive force, but didn’t intend to kill Steenkamp, a 29-year-old model. The judge has wide latitude when deciding

on a sentence. Pistorius could receive a fine and a suspended jail term or as many as 15 years in prison. Vergeer and another social worker recommended that Pistorius be given a three-year correctional supervision sentence, which would place him under house arrest for periods and require him to do community service. Prosecutors insist that such a sentence would be inappropriate and say Pistorius should be sent to prison, citing the level of negligence he showed when he fired his 9 mm pistol without checking who was behind the door. Family members of Pistorius and Steenkamp attended the second day of the trial’s sentencing hearing, which is expected to last around a week. Pistorius mostly sat looking down during Tuesday’s testimony.

PREP ROUNDUP

St. Michael’s loses to Bosque, drops seventh straight match The New Mexican

It’s all a matter of timing. In the case of the St. Michael’s volleyball team, it stinks. The Lady Horsemen lost their seventh straight match Tuesday night, dropping three games at the hands of visiting AlbuquerA. Bosque 3 que Bosque School St. Mike’s 0 in Perez-Shelley Gymnasium. They held firm in the opening game, but eventually faded in a 25-22, 25-20, 25-15 Lady Bobcats win. It drops St. Michael’s to 3-13 overall, 0-4 in District 4AAAA. The Lady Horsemen are the only winless team in the district, while Bosque (12-4, 4-0) is in second place, trailing only Albuquerque Hope Christian. “We’re hoping to get hot around the [district] tournament and maybe turn it around,” said St. Michael’s head coach Steve Long. “It’s just the little mistakes, and we’re making them at

the most critical times. It’s those little things that are killing us.” Lainie Serna had a team-high 17 assists while Miquela Martinez had 14. Allie Berhost had 14 kills and four blocks, followed by Danielle Trujillo’s 10 kills and two blocks. Sierra Padilla had seven service points. The Lady Horsemen have matches with Hope, Santa Fe Indian School and a rematch with Bosque before the regular season wraps up at the end of the month. “If we can fix those little things, or at least not make them when we can’t afford it, we’ll be OK,” Long said. ALBUQUERQUE CIBOLA 3, SANTA FE HIGH 0 Santa Fe High has still not won a game against 1AAAAAA opponents, but head coach Sam Estrada liked what he saw in a 25-14, 25-23, 25-19 loss to the Lady Cougars in Toby Roybal Memorial Gymnasium. “I’m happy with a lot of what happened,” Estrada said. “This is the first

time in a long time that we didn’t let our nerves overtake us.” Bella Christian-Padilla led the Demonettes (9-7, 0-4) with 10 digs, four kills and two aces. SANTA FE PREP 3, MONTE DEL SOL 0 It was a day for Kate Naylor, and the crowd at Prep Gymnasium made sure she knew it. The little-used senior got some playing time during a 25-9, 25-8, 25-12 sweep of the Lady Dragons in a 2AAA match, and she produced two kills. The first, though, really got the Prep fans going. “All the girls were trying to encourage her to be aggressive,” said Kiran Bhakta, Prep head coach. “When she got her first kill, the fans went crazy.” Prep (9-6, 3-0) got the usually strong performances from Desiray Anderson (nine kills, 10 assists, one ace) and Joy Maran (seven kills, two blocks, one ace). Bianca Gonzales had three kills and six assists, while Courtney Timlin added eight assists The Lady Dragons were led by Natasha Cooke’s five digs and two aces.

Not a single player on the roster had more than one kill, although Ariana Rodriguez had two blocks and Lizbeth Nava had three assists. Jessica Sandoval had two digs and Kaylee Maxon had a team-high four. SANTA FE WALDORF 3, EVANGEL CHRISTIAN 0 All the Lady Wolves served on the 1A dinner menu against the Lady Eagles were aces, and they cruised to a 25-22, 25-11, 25-10 win in the team’s “Dig Pink” match at Christian Life Academy. Leading the way was junior Gabby Chastenet with six aces, while Keifer Nace added five and Beatrice Lowe four. Waldorf (9-3, 5-1) again used its bench liberally to get some of the underclassmen playing time, which led to the tight opening game. “We were really tight and strong,” said Josie Adams, Waldorf head coach. “we had very few service errors and we just progressively stepped it up and I am super proud of my girls.” Cecelia Barnard had a team-high 19 kills, while Alex Chastenet and Nace

Prize: 2nd straight district title within reach Continued from Page B-5 “That woke me up as a captain.” When the Jaguars awoke, they went on a seven-match win streak without allowing any goals. After the win against Farmington, in which Garcia scored the winning goal in the final minutes, the Jaguars beat District 2AAAAA foe Los Alamos for the third time this season. In the latest victory, a 3-0 win at Jaguar Field on Saturday, three different Jaguars scored goals while not allowing the Hilltoppers to get a whiff of their goal until the latter part of the second half. “That was a perfect example of how we should play at state,” Garcia said. “If we play like that,

we’re going to be in the finals.” That win gave everyone else in the district at least two losses while keeping the Jaguars undefeated. All Capital has to do is beat either Bernalillo or Albuquerque Del Norte for its second straight district title. That idea should free the Jaguars to start preparing for the AAAAA State Tournament, but they are still focused on keeping the win streak going. “We pretty much have it, but it’s not secured yet, so we still need to focus on Bernalillo and Del Norte,” senior goalkeeper Rene Arroyo said. “Once we accomplish that, we’ll get state in our mind, 100 percent.” Doyle isn’t overlooking the remaining matches either. The Jaguars still need to impress the New Mexico Activities Asso-

ciation selection committee so they can get a high seed and, theoretically, get an easier path to the state championship. “We need to be hungry and win every match so we can get a really good seed to get us in a better position to win the whole thing,” Doyle said. The Jaguars have been hungry for a state championship for quite some time, and that drives them to the field even when they don’t have to be. “Even if we get a day off, most of the guys come out here and play around with the ball,” Arroyo said. “We just can’t be home doing nothing. We’re a family here, and we just love the sport so much.” That passion for the sport leads to passion for each other. Instead of breaking with

“1-2-3-Jaguars” for practices and matches, the team breaks with “1-2-3-Family.” “Each guy is my brother, and each guy means a lot to me,” Garcia said. Even if that bond and hunger leads to an easier path to a state championship, the Jaguars know the road is going to be bumpy. But the Jaguars have been there before, and that’s only going to help them. Garcia has been craving trophies for years, and it’s not going to be satisfied until he holds the one that has slipped away from him for so long. “Each match is going to be hard, and I want these guys to not be satisfied,” Garcia said. “There’s so much more around the corner.”

SOCCER NOTEBOOK

Lady Cardinals, Lady Tigers vie for top spot By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

A lot of district champions have set themselves apart with just two weeks left in the regular season, but the girls District 5A-AAAA is still a toss-up. Both Las Vegas Robertson and Taos are 2-0 in district play, but they have yet to play each other. The two schools have mutual wins over Moreno Valley and Pojoaque Valley, but the Lady Cardinals have a 21-1 goal differential over those teams while the Lady Tigers have an 11-0 goal differential. Those numbers won’t necesasrily work in Robertson’s favor in case it ties with Taos for the district lead at the end of the season, as the goal differential for each match only goes up to plus-5. Then two teams will meet in Taos on Oct. 18 and again in Las Vegas on Oct. 23 for the final match of the regular season. The two teams split last year, but The Lady Tigers won the district by one match. uuu

The Taos boys soccer team is on a roll

by winning its last six matches by a count of 48-5, and four of those opposing goals came in a 8-4 nondistrict win over Bernalillo. The Tigers are on top of 5A-AAAA with a 5-0 record with district matches against Moreno Valley, Robertson and Pojoaque remaining. Surprisingly, the Elks are in second place in the district with a 4-1 record, with their only loss being to Taos. With a 6-9 record overall, Pojoaque already has one more win than it did last season. The Elks and Tigers will clash for a final time on Oct. 20 in Jacona. uuu

The girls team at Santa Fe Prep has already ended its 2A-AAAA season with a 7-3 record and is in second behind St. Michael’s, but the Blue Griffins haven’t locked up that 2-spot just yet. Monte del Sol is hot on their heels with a 3-2-1 record. If the Lady Dragons can win their final four district matches against St. Michael’s, Santa Fe Indian School, Desert Academy and Academy for Technology and the

Classics, they will finish second in the district. That could be problematic for the Lady Dragons, as St. Michael’s doused them 10-0 earlier in the season, and the Lady Horsemen are on fire by winning their last four matches with the 10-goal mercy rule. If Monte del Sol loses just one of those matches, second place will belong to the Blue Griffins. uuu

The Maxpreps.com Class A-AAAA girls soccer ranking — a tool the New Mexico Activities Association uses when determining state tournament seedings — has St. Michael’s ranked second behind Albuquerque Hope Christian. The Lady Horsemen (14-2) already lost to Hope 3-0 on Sept. 2, and the Lady Huskies (13-0-1) have yet to lose a match and played to a 0-0 tie with AAAAAA Rio Rancho Cleveland. St. Michael’s was awarded the 2-seed in last year’s state tournament and fell to Albuquerque Sandia Prep in the semifinals.

Win: Team shows grit that’s been missing Continued from Page B-5 earned 25-27, 25-11, 20-25, 25-16, 15-10 win that kept it in the 2AAA race. In the process, it also showed the kind of grit that has been missing at times this season. Which was worth the trouble for Desert Academy head coach Natalie Passalacqua. “Going five games, it’s 8 o’clock, I got a sick kid at home and I’m going to have a heart attack,” Passalacqua said. “Other than that, I’m doing all right. It was great for them.” And it was great for Passalacqua to see that the heartto-heart talk she had with her girls after last week’s sweep at district leader Santa Fe Prep resonated. Desert Academy (8-7 overall, 2-1 2AAA) went into that match believing it was the equal to the Blue Griffins, especially after a tough four-game loss in the Santa Fe Indian School Invitational championship match on Oct. 4. Instead, Prep dominated the

Lady Wildcats after a tough first game. “We’ve had a lot of meetings this year, but I think this was kind of the breaking point,” said Hart, who had 13 kills, 19 assists and five aces on the night. “We had to take all of our emotional baggage out of our playing because it’s really getting in the way. It was the breaking point for us to really just start over again.” Hart took those words to heart, and played up to the immense potential Passalacqua sees in the senior setter/outside hitter. She led a 6-1 charge with three big kills to turn momentum Desert Academy’s way. “She can jump and place the ball wherever she wants to,” Passalacqua said, “and she did that in this game. She found the holes in their defense.” When Pecos (7-8, 2-1) pulled to within 10-9, senior Tori Heath hammered the last of her 20 kills to start a closing 5-1 run. Helping was Mikalya Bohlman, who came up with a big

block off of Jeanine Montoya for a 14-10 lead. Desert Academy’s mental do-over could have been a donothing moment in the opener against the Lady Panthers. Desert Academy cruised along to a 22-16 lead when adversity struck. A potential ace by Abby Tiarks was taken away when the referee called interference on the crowd as a Pecos player chased after the ball into the first row of the stands. A replay was called and Valencia capitalized with a kill. Valencia reeled off five kills and an ace during an 11-3 closing run to take Game 1. In most cases, a letdown like that would have sent the Lady Wildcats into a tailspin. Instead, they responded by dominating Game 2. Pecos interim head coach Jolene Ortiz, who took over for Leonard Velasquez after he resigned on Friday to tend to his ailing son, felt her team’s inconsistent play helped.

“We just fell asleep in that game,” Ortiz said. “We had come off a great win in coming back to win that first game. That second game, we just struggled.” Game 3 was Desert Academy’s turn to sleep. Pecos reeled off the first 10 points and took a 16-4 lead before the Lady Wildcats stormed back with a 16-5 spurt that got them within 21-20 on a Tiarks tip. While the Lady Panthers scored the next four points for the win, Desert Academy showed toughness in getting back into a game it normally wouldn’t have. Heath said the difference was as simple as a huddle. “Before, we didn’t use our huddle the right way,” Heath said. “Actually, we didn’t really have one, where we could come together and celebrate the good things we do. Now that we have it, we can feel the positive energy and how excited we are. I think that makes a huge difference.”

each had five. Nace also had 22 assists. BOYS SOCCER SANTA FE PREP 8, ST. MICHAEL’S 0 Junior Sam Brill scored four goals — two of them unassisted — to help the Blue Griffins get a blowout win over the Horsemen in a 2A-AAAA match at the Christian Brothers Athletic Complex. “Sam Brill had the match of his life,” Prep head coach Hersch Wilson said. “He just had an amazing [match], and we continued to put pressure on them. That was probably our best attacking since we played Las Cruces [on Sept. 6].” Prep senior goalkeeper Ian Andersson, who sprained his ankle playing basketball on Oct. 5, played the first five minutes of the match. He was pulled, after lingering effects from the injury became apparent, in favor of Patrick Boyd, who injured a finger late in the first half.

BASEBALL ALCS

Slive to retire as SEC head in July

Royals edge Orioles, lead 3-0

By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press

Southeastern Conference Commissioner Mike Slive will retire next summer after 13 years leading the league to unprecedented success and prosperity. The 74-year-old Slive said his retirement will take effect July 31, and also announced he plans to begin treatment for a recurrence of prostate cancer. Slive has become one of the most powerful figures in college sports. Under his leadership, the SEC became the nation’s most premier football conference, dug out from under a pile of NCAA compliance issues and won seven consecutive BCS titles. Mike Slive Overall, the SEC won 67 national championships in 15 of its 21 sponsored sports since he took over in 2002. “I have been blessed in more ways than I can count and I will have as much passion for this job on my last day as I did on my first,” Slive said Tuesday in a statement released by the conference. “I consider my health situation a temporary detour in a remarkable road that has allowed me to meet amazing people, experience incredible events and celebrate historic victories. I will relish my final year in this position and look forward to being the biggest fan of the SEC for many years to come.” The statement said Slive’s recurrence was diagnosed after back surgery in August. He was first treated for prostate cancer in the 1990s. He will continue to carry out his responsibilities from the SEC office and his home office in Birmingham, Ala. His travel and appearances may be limited, the conference said. After his treatment, the conference said he will be a consultant to the league for four years. Even with the news of Slive’s health issues, his retirement at this point comes as no shock. While he had given no timetable for his exit in recent years, he had hinted that getting the SEC Network off the ground could be his last big project. In 2012, he said he’d stay with the conference at least two more years. He helped the conference land huge television rights deals with CBS and ESPN worth billions and in August the SEC Network was launched with ESPN as a partner. Conference revenues shared among the 14 member schools have grown from about $96 million when he took over to $310 million last year. “Mike possesses all of the qualities of a great leader — visionary, consensus builder, integrity, intuition and commitment, but more than anything he is a great friend to so many of us in this league,” Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley said in a statement. “He’s led this conference to historical milestones during his tenure and the impact he’s had on collegiate athletics management and structure will be felt for many years.” Vanderbilt chancellor Nick Zeppos said the SEC will begin a national search for a successor. Expect the conference leaders to also consider in-house candidates. Greg Sankey was promoted to executive associate commissioner and chief operating officer at the SEC in March 2012. He’s been handling day-to-day operations while Slive was working on major projects such as the network and College Football Playoff. Sankey, the former Southland Conference commissioner, was hired by Slive not long after he became SEC commissioner. “I’ve had the opportunity to learn every day from Mike Slive,” Sankey said in a recent interview before Tuesday’s announcement. “That’s one of the reasons I took the job.” SEC executive associate commissioner Mark Womack has been with the conference since 1978. When Slive left Conference USA to take over the SEC in 2002, the conference was in disarray with nine of its 12 members either on probation or being investigated by the NCAA. Now only three of the SEC’s 14 schools are on NCAA probation. “I think one of the things that our leadership helped transition was how you handle those things,” Sankey said. “When we have problems now, they are, I think personally, materially different than what we’ve had.”

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Royals have embraced the bloop, bunt and sacrifice fly all postseason. Royals 2 Add in more sparkling Orioles 1 defense and that dominant bullpen, and the wild-card Royals are suddenly one win from the World Series. Billy Butler drove in the goahead run with a sacrifice fly in the sixth inning, and the Royals’ steel-curtain bullpen shut down the Baltimore Orioles the rest of the way for a 2-1 win Tuesday night and a commanding 3-0 lead in the AL Championship Series. Third baseman Mike Moustakas made two marvelous plays as the picture-perfect Royals won their 10th straight postseason game, including all seven this year. Making its first playoff appearance in 29 years, the only thing that’s slowed Kansas City so far was a rainout Monday. Kansas City will send Jason Vargas to the mound for Game 4 on Wednesday, trying to advance to its first World Series since 1985. Miguel Gonzalez will try to help the Orioles stave off elimination. The Royals’ Jeremy Guthrie and Orioles’ Wei-Yin Chen hooked up in a tense pitching duel for five innings. Chen gave up a leadoff single to Nori Aoki in the sixth. Eric Hosmer followed with a one-out single to put runners on the corners, and Orioles manager Buck Showalter brought in hard-throwing reliever Kevin Gausman to face Butler. The Royals’ designated hitter sent a fly ball to left field for the tiebreaking run — just the latest example of Kansas City doing the little things right.

Continued from Page B-5

One of the best bullpens in baseball took care of the rest — the relievers combined with Guthrie to retire Baltimore’s final 16 batters. After winning pitcher Jason Frasor breezed through the sixth, Kelvin Herrera and Wade Davis nailed down the next two innings. All-Star closer Greg Holland worked a perfect ninth for his third save of the series, setting off a wild celebration in the stands. It was the 13th game to be decided by one run this postseason, matching the record set in 2011 and tied last year. Six games have gone to extra innings, including the Giants’ 5-4, 10-inning victory over the Cardinals hours earlier in the NLCS. After failing to take the lead in the first two games of the series, Baltimore managed to strike first, temporarily silencing a frigid, flagwaving capacity crowd. It happened in the second inning, when Steve Pearce and J.J. Hardy connected off Guthrie with back-

to-back doubles for a 1-0 lead. Ryan Flaherty later drew a walk, but Guthrie retired Nick Hundley and Jonathan Schoop to escape his biggest jam of the night. Guthrie wound up grinding through five innings against his former team, allowing just one more hit in his first start since Sept. 26 — a span of nearly three weeks. Chen matched him pitch-forpitch until the fourth, when the Royals put together one of their quintessential innings: a pair of bloop singles by Lorenzo Cain and Hosmer, a walk by Butler, and an RBI groundout by Alex Gordon that tied the game. The Royals played catch up with their gloves, too. Moustakas made a diving grab to rob Pearce of a single in the fourth. Then in the sixth, Moustakas tracked a popup by Adam Jones into foul territory, steadied himself at a railing near the dugout, then extended himself to catch the ball and tumbled into the stands.

Error: Vogelsong, Miller to pitch Continued from Page B-5 but then pushed one to the thirdbase side of the mound and the left-handed Choate’s side-arm throw sailed past lunging second baseman Kolten Wong, who was covering first base. “We had trouble getting the bunt down,” Crawford said. “So I was happy he got it down. He put it in a great spot and made those guys make a play, and fortunately [we] saw the throw go wide.” Randal Grichuk tied it with a solo homer in the seventh that chased Hudson. Game 4 in the best-of-seven series is Wednesday night, with Ryan Vogelsong pitching for the Giants against fellow righty Shelby Miller. Choate blamed himself. He has done pitcher fielding practice for decades. “He did exactly what I wanted him to do,” the pitcher said. “It was easy. It was right there and I blew it. The ball just sailed on me.” This walkoff win came 12 years to the day after Kenny Lofton’s single in the ninth inning ended the 2002 NLCS against the Cardinals and sent the Giants to the World

Classes: Cap highest class at 20 schools

Series. It also came on a day Hall of Famer Willie McCovey surprised players with his return to the ballpark after a long stint in the hospital nursing an infection. “Is this a rule we can’t hit a home run?” a relieved manager Bruce Bochy joked, sitting back in his office chair. In the Division Series clincher only a week earlier against Washington, Joe Panik scored the goahead run in a 3-2 win on Aaron Barrett’s bases-loaded wild pitch. That came after winning Game 2 2-1 in 18 innings. The Giants also scored the tying run in the ninth inning Sunday on a wild pitch, a 5-4 loss in Game 2 of the NLCS. “We play interesting baseball, especially late in games,” said Jeremy Affeldt, who pitched 1⅔ innings in relief of Hudson. Playing without injured catcher Yadier Molina, the Cardinals had their chances. They squandered Wong’s double in the second before he delivered a wind-aided, two-run triple in the fourth. Javier Lopez got the first two outs of the 10th before Jon Jay’s single, just the third hit by a lefthanded batter against Lopez since

he joined San Francisco in 2010. Two of those are by Jay this series. Sergio Romo entered and retired Matt Holliday on a full-count grounder to third that Pablo Sandoval snared and fired to first. “We don’t do anything easy,” Bochy said. “We might have got a little lucky there with Perez when he couldn’t get a bunt down and he gets a base hit. But Blanco laid down a beauty.” A.J. Pierzynski went hitless in four at-bats starting as Molina nursed a strained left oblique. St. Louis returned to AT&T Park in the postseason for the first time since losing Games 6 and 7 of the 2012 NLCS, which it had led 3-1. Journeyman Travis Ishikawa hit a three-run double in the first to stake Hudson to a 4-0 lead in the right-hander’s first postseason start beyond the division series in a 16-year career. Hunter Pence’s RBI double off John Lackey got things started in the first, the first time the Giants scored in the initial inning this postseason. Buster Posey and Sandoval hit consecutive two-out singles and Ishikawa followed an intentional walk to Brandon Belt to load the bases with his double.

phies with some new ones, as well. And all it takes is making one simple concession — don’t treat Class AAAAAA like every other class. The idea in this latest round of alignment was to balance the top three classes out with 24 schools apiece. Perhaps the best thing the NMAA can do for the next two-year block starting with the 2016-17 school year is to stop trying to be so fair and balanced. Cap AAAAAA to the top 20 enrollments in the state. Just giving the three-year enrollment list of all the schools in the state the eye-ball test, the 20 largest schools have the infrastructure and ability to play at the highest level. Those are elements missing with schools like Santa Fe High, Deming and Farmington (which lucked out moving up thanks to Valley’s desire to play up a class), and those programs would likely struggle in some sports, if not all, for a lengthy period. Now here’s the caveat, which helps — somewhat — with the districting and travel issue: Lock those 20 schools into that class. If a Valley wants to play up, let them. Just don’t move anyone out to compensate. As it stands in 2014, that list would include Alamogordo, which is in 4AAAAAA with Clovis, Hobbs and Carlsbad. The problem, though, comes in 2016 because Las Cruces Centennial will be large enough to supplant Alamogordo in the Top 20, and that upsets the balanced district factor (meaning the southern districts). One answer is to move one of the Cruces schools or Anthony Gadsden (mere half-hour away from the Cruces schools) to the make the dreaded southeast swing. Looking at how the NMAA handled the appeals of all but one school last year, Gadsden would appear ideal to moving into the southeast district — although it could argue that it must cross through the Las Cruces school district to get to Clovis. With that said, maybe schools — and the NMAA — could live with a three-team district. I mean, it’s just one. What that does is eliminate the travel issues with the Valencia County schools, and adds some teeth into the programs at Santa Fe High and Deming plus keeping Farmington competitive in AAAAA. As for the other five classes, breaking them down in the balanced classification formula still works, and the biggest gripes have come from the bigger schools. And it might do some justice for smaller private schools (say, Desert Academy?) that suffer from the wrath aimed at the larger private schools. If schools want to play up, it gives some of those classes a buffer to withstand those losses while maintaining proper district integrity. If that doesn’t work, then the next step should be even more drastic. Let’s create 161 districts and give everybody a blue trophy. Then nobody’s angry — except for the NMAA. Who has to pay for all those banners and trophies, after all?

Dallas Cowboys RB Randle arrested on theft charge By Schuyler Dixon The Associated Press

IRVING, Texas — Cowboys running back Joseph Randle has been arrested on a shoplifting charge, accused of taking $123 worth of cologne and underwear from a suburban Dallas department store and telling a police officer he thought to himself, “all right, y’all got me,” after a security guard stopped him. Randle, who is charged with a Class B misdemeanor theft between $50 and $500, was detained Monday evening by store security and later taken to the Frisco city jail before posting bond early Tuesday, police Sgt. Brad Merritt said. The arrest came a day after one of Randle’s best games since joining Dallas as a fifth-round draft pick out of Oklahoma State last season. He had a 38-yard run and a key tackle on a kickoff in a 30-23 victory at Super Bowl champion Seattle that gave the Cowboys their first 5-1 record since 2007. According to an arrest report, Randle was caught on video placing items later identified as a “tester” bottle of Gucci Guilty Black cologne

and a two-pack of Polo underwear into a Dillard’s bag after making a purchase at the store at Stonebriar Centre, about 30 miles north of Dallas. The 22-year-old Randle was stopped by a security guard in the

parking lot and later told a police officer that when he saw the “old guy,” referring to the security guard, he thought to himself, “all right, y’all got me.” After getting stopped by security, Randle returned to the store and the

items were recovered. The cost of the items was $123.50 before sales tax. Randle is in the second year of a four-year, $2.3 million rookie contract with a base salary of $495,000 this season. Randle, who declined to talk to reporters in the locker room Tuesday, finished with 52 yards rushing on five carries against the Seahawks. He has 113 yards on 16 carries for the season as the backup to NFL rushing leader DeMarco Murray. Randle had 164 yards rushing and two touchdowns as a rookie last year. The Cowboys did not respond to a request for comment over the latest off-the-field news to envelop the team. They are waiting for results of a police investigation into a sexual assault complaint filed last month against special teams player C.J. Spillman in Grapevine, another Dallas suburb. Spillman, who hasn’t been arrested or charged, has played in all six games for Dallas. Coach Jason Garrett, who wasn’t available Tuesday to address Randle’s arrest, has said Spillman’s status won’t change unless police pursue the case.

TASTE Beef stew, deliciously leaner with chickpeas

Not sure which exotic varieties to include on your holiday tray? Consult the professionals

By Melissa D’Arabian The Associated Press

Picture this: After a long day at the office (or at the kids’ soccer field or wherever), you turn the key to open your front door and you are greeted by the heady aroma of a steamy, meaty stew. You have been richly rewarded for spending mere minutes in the morning assembling dinner in your slow cooker. Fall officially kicks off the season of soups, roasts and stews. And that means it’s time to dig out your slow cooker. My favorite dish is an oldie but goodie — beef stew. But how to make a batch that satisfies without being too heavy? Enter today’s star ingredient — the chickpea! This delightful little legume is my secret for adding lots of lean protein and fiber to many dishes. It’s hearty enough to hold its own alongside other proteins (so add it to soups, chilies and sautés). Or toss some chickpeas into salads or stir them into pasta dishes to boost the nutrition. You even can purée them and add a few creamy spoonsful to brownie or muffin batters (not to mention make hummus). And, did I mention how darned cheap these little guys are? This beef stew with chickpeas is an earthy ode to fall — beef cubes briefly sautéed golden brown with turmeric, then simmered in red wine, beef stock, lemon zest and prunes (which add richness and just enough sweetness) in a relationship that can only be described as symbiotic. A final slow-cooker tip: For busy weekdays, consider prepping the ingredients and adding them to your slow-cooker insert the night before, then sticking it in the refrigerator overnight.

N

ow it is cheese season, the time for swanky holiday parties, and nothing impresses friends and family more than a tumble of exotic French cheeses all commingling together on a rustic board with a spray of comically small grapes and an assortment of artisanal multiseed flatbreads. But which cheeses to pick? Selecting cheese can be as intimidating as selecting wine, and while we may be able to get lucky by picking up the plastic-wrapped wedges and sniffing them, to really do it right, you need to consult with a bona fide cheesemonger. “The kind of knowledge that’s really required [to be a cheesemonger] has just as much to do with product knowledge [as] understanding what makes cheese ‘cheese’ versus a ‘cheese product’,” says John Gutierrez, owner/master cheesemonger at the soon-to-open (Gutierrez hopes to open next month) Cheesemongers of Santa Fe, a specialty foods haven located on Marcy Street next to Mellow Velo. “Also the scientific process behind it, the biology, the chemistry and the microflora involved — because that has a lot to do with how the cheese is being taken care of in the shop.” Joy Ascher is the Certified Cheese Professional at the Whole Foods on Cerrillos Road, and your liaison with the more than 200 various cheeses offered in its specialty foods section, most of which have foreign names that sound like they belong on wine labels and which you’ve probably never heard of. “Certified Cheese Professional” is a designation awarded by the American Cheese Society. The ACS may sound like an invention of Monty Python, but it actually exists and is headquartered in Colorado. Achieving this title is a daunting proposition, requiring at least 4,000 hours of relevant work experience, classes and hands-on training, and there are only about 250 of them in the world. “It’s a really broad body of knowledge,” explains Ascher. “The bibliography is about 100 books and articles online, and it covers everything from really pasture to plate, how the soil influences the taste behind the cheese, the sense of place, what that place imparts to the cheese,

also what the animal is eating, what kind of animal it is, the protein-to-fat ratio, etc.” Gutierrez’s cheese résumé is long and robust. “I’ve worked under many different mentors, tutors in the cheese industry,” he says. “This is cheese shop number seven that I’ve worked with.” Gutierrez hails from the San Francisco Bay Area, de-facto mecca for specialty foods, and knows more about cheese than most people know about their own children. Cheese, as it turns out, is an extremely rich subject. As a master cheesemonger like Ascher or Gutierrez will tell you, cheese is more than just proteins and fat globules (a term that cheesemongers are fond of using). Cheese is like fine wine, and requires just as much rarified, specialized knowledge to understand. In addition to knowing about cheese itself, cheesemongers must understand chemistry, animal husbandry and microbiology. For example, cheese has terroir. Terroir, or soil, is usually a term applied to wine and refers to the flavors imparted by the place where the grapes were grown. In terms of cheese, it refers to the flavor profile of the cheese, the tastes and hints of tastes deriving from the very grass the cows were eating and how the milk impacted the microflora that cause the fermentation that is the source of the flavor. Also, cheese has vintage. Cheeses can vary from batch to batch, and some are better than others. Gutierrez and Ascher explain that an infinite number of factors can impact the flavor of a particular cheese. The temperature of the vat for coagulating the milk, how big they cut the curds, the amount of time spent stirring the curd, how long the curd rests, etc. Different cheeses are made at different times of year according to the fat content and flavor of the milk produced by cows, which is affected by what the cows are eating and where they are in the lactation cycle, which means cheesemongers have to know about cows. And goats, and sheep, and any other animal whose milk can be made into a commercially available cheese. They have to know how to tell those various cheeses apart as well as know how those cheeses will respond to aging, heating and storing, as well as how well

they’ll pair with wine and food. That means they also have to know about wine, bread and charcuterie. There are some classic pairings: Stilton and port, sauterne and Roquefort, but, as Gutierrez puts it, “there are very few, compared to how many wines and cheeses there are.” Plus, cheesemongers must have good French accents. Yes, there are many fine cheeses from Italy and Spain and England and Vermont, but a quick perusal of any well-populated cheese section makes it clear that the French are still the frontrunners of the fancy cheese world. And then once you’ve picked your cheese, your friendly neighborhood cheesemonger can advise you on how best to treat it at home. Both Ascher and Gutierrez decry plastic wrap as the enemy of cheese, though for retail reasons it is an unfortunate necessity. Gutierrez suggests you wrap fine cheese in waxed paper or aluminum foil, and then put it in a Tupperware container slightly cracked to allow air to flow in. Because cheese, you see, is a living thing, teeming with vibrant microflora that continue breaking it down, and though fermented, is paradoxically best eaten soon after purchase. “Buy only as much cheese as you need,” advises Gutierrez. “Once you have a nice piece of cheese, there’s different rules for how long you can keep it.” A fresh mozzarella, no more than three to five days, brie and camembert, maybe a seven-to-fourteen-day lifespan … but in all honesty, none of that stuff is getting any better the longer it sits.” “The cultures start breaking down and they die, and as they die they release ammonia,” explains Ascher. “Also, just because your cheese is already moldy doesn’t mean it can’t go bad. … Cheese people aren’t really afraid of mold, but if [the mold is] pink, you want to get rid of it … green, blue, white, gray, those are all normal.” It was a brave man who first ate blue cheese — or any cheese, really. The idea of cheese, explained to an alien, sounds vile and dangerous. Take the extruded milk of a ruminant animal and curdle it intentionally, wrap it in cloth, stick it in a cave, and wait until it starts to smell like feet and blooms with deep veins of furry mold. Or, as cheese enthusiasts would put it, until it becomes delicious. And luckily for us, there are people like Gutierrez and Ascher to tell us when that is.

Airlines treat pets better than humans? By Christopher Elliott Special to The Washington Post

Contemporary Crystal Bridges Arkansas museum expands scope with massive exhibit: ‘State of the Art’ By Beth J. Harpaz The Associated Press

BENTONVILLE, Ark. rystal Bridges Museum of American Art opened in 2011 in Wal-Mart’s hometown, Bentonville, Ark., with a respectable collection of work by famous artists, from Norman Rockwell’s Rosie the Riveter to a George Washington portrait by Gilbert Stuart. But the museum has just opened a massive exhibition of contemporary art called State of the Art that could be a gamechanger. The museum is sometimes mocked by critics from outside the region for its location and Wal-Mart connections — its permanent collection was funded by Wal-Mart heiress Alice Walton — but the new show represents a serious effort to introduce contemporary art to a mainstream audience far from the rarefied galleries of hipster neighborhoods and urban centers. State of the Art showcases more than 200 works by 102 artists from around the country. All the works were created since 2011, and the show resulted from a 100,000-mile road trip by museum President Don Bacigalupi and curator Chad Alligood to discover under-recognized artists. “Crystal Bridges has already established itself with a major national presence due to the quality of its collection of American art from colonial times to the present day,” said Alligood in an interview. “What State of the Art does is extend that story. Many of our audience members come from around here. For many of them, this is their first time having an experience in an art museum. We’re introducing con-

temporary art to this audience.” The works are engaging, surprising and memorable. They include Lowrider Piñata, a lifesized car made from colorful piñata-style paper and cardboard, by Justin Favela; Delita Martin’s The Dream Keeper, which brings elements of magical realism to a portrait of a black figure in work clothes, a bird perched on one hand; and Alberto Aguilar’s Sensitive Equipment, which invites visitors to hit a balloon back and forth using melodic hand-bells as bats. Susie J. Lee’s silent video portraits of the faces of workingmen, called Fracking Fields, offer mesmerizing close-ups of faces in real time as their emotions wordlessly register. John Salvest stacked secondhand romance novels so that the book bindings, organized by color, spell out “FOREVER” in giant letters. Ghosts of Consumption, by Pam Longobardi, features man-made debris from the ocean. Jeila Gueramian’s textile piece, It’s You, creates a ceiling of colorful crocheted blankets. And the show opens with the Mom Booth by

Andy Ducett, in which real moms who are local volunteers sit at a table wearing aprons, knitting and dispensing hugs and advice. Reviews of the show have been mixed. The Wall Street Journal called it “PG-13,” suggesting that it’s so accessible, it rules out art with provocative themes. Blair Schulman, a Kansas City, Mo.based art critic who contributes to The Huffington Post blog, said he “loved” the works but took issue with “how it was curated. It was a lot of good work in a very large space. … If they broke it into smaller exhibitions over a few years, it would have better represented what the artists were making.” But Alligood says Crystal Bridges “didn’t create this show for critics. We expressly went into this project to shake up the paradigm of contemporary art — that it’s somehow not of the realm of everyday experience, that it’s inaccessible or disengaged from our lives or that it’s inexplicable. In fact, artists across this country are engaged in conversations in ways that

welcome the viewer in.” Admission to Crystal Bridges is free, and the museum is drawing more than 500,000 visitors a year, 60 percent from Arkansas. At the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, 30 miles away, art department chairwoman Jeannie Hulen says the museum has “changed our students’ lives. It’s completely changed the way we teach. It has upped the game and given them a wider, more worldly view of what art is.” As for State of the Art, she says, “It’s a positive show, it’s a very optimistic show, it’s a big show. It’s important for them being a new museum to be thinking about contemporary art. It is accessible, but there is a conversation about accessibility that’s happening in the art world now, that art is not just for artists, it’s not just for the elite. It’s for people.” The curators, she said, “chose artists that want the viewer to leave with something they could understand. I don’t think that’s wrong.”

IF YOU GO State of the Art runs through Jan. 19 at Crystal Bridges in Bentonville, Ark. For more information, go to www.crystalbridges.org.

Some airline passengers are more equal than others, as Michael Morris found out when his daughter and 2-month-old granddaughter visited him from Los Angeles this summer. On their first flight on Sun Country Airlines, they shared the cabin with two small dogs. “My daughter suffers from pet allergies,” says Morris, who lives in Minneapolis. “As you can guess, she had an allergic reaction.” It happened again on the trip home. “Across from her, the same passenger with her dog were also returning to L.A.,” Morris remembers. “My daughter told the flight attendant about her allergies, and they moved my daughter to a seat in the very back row.” Morris wants to know — and so do other passengers who contact me regularly — who should be moving: the pet or the passenger? Fortunately, human-animal conflicts on planes appear to be relatively rare. The U.S. Department of Transportation recorded only 22 complaints about pets on aircraft in 2013, and so far this year, it has received 18. Grievances about service animals used by passengers with disabilities are also minuscule — a total of 35 to date, compared with 45 last year, according to the department. Airlines are concerned about the welfare of passengers who suffer from allergies. For example, Delta Air Lines in 2012 adopted a new policy for passengers with peanut allergies, and, when notified of an allergic passenger, will refrain from serving peanuts and peanut products aboard the flight. But pet allergies are more complicated. Pets generate sizable revenue for airlines in the form of extra fees and are unlikely to be removed from a flight just because another passenger complains. What’s more, the Transportation Department requires that they allow service animals on flights.

Pets generate sizable revenue for airlines in the form of extra fees and are unlikely to be removed from a flight just because another passenger complains. “Carriers should do their best to accommodate other passengers’ concerns by steps like seating passengers with service animals and passengers who are uncomfortable with service animals away from one another,” it says in a 2009 rule on nondiscrimination and air travel. A closer look at the federal regulation reveals one or two loopholes that could come to the rescue of passengers like Morris’ daughter. First, there’s no requirement that all pets be allowed in the cabin, only service animals, although many airlines allow pets small enough to fit in a carrier under the seat. Airlines must accept service animals in the cabin as long as they don’t “pose a direct threat to the health or safety of others” or cause a “significant” disruption in cabin service. The DOT lists as examples an animal that would display threatening behavior, such as “growling, snarling, lunging at or attempting to bite other persons on the aircraft.” The small dogs on the Sun Country flight might have qualified as “emotional-support” animals, a type of service animal. Sun Country did not respond to several requests for comment, but its policy on these four-legged passengers is available on its website. Specific to what it calls “psychiatric-assist and emotional-support animals,” as permitted by DOT rules, the airline requires a letter from a licensed mental health professional or medical doctor specifically treating the passenger’s disability. The letter must also be dated and have been written within a year, and the disorder must be recognized by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition. The government draws no distinction between a service animal — which is identified by the presence of harnesses, tags or the credible verbal assurances of a qualified individual with a disability using the animal — and one used for emotional support. But passengers do. An incident in October 2000, in which a 300-pound potbellied Vietnamese pig used by a first-class passenger for emotional support reportedly ran amok on a US Airways flight, drew something of a line. An FAA investigation cleared the pig’s owner and the airline of any wrongdoing, but US Airways reportedly vowed to never allow a pig to fly in the passenger cabin again. Passengers are understandably skeptical of these special designations. “I’m not allergic myself but am of the opinion that there is a time and place for pets, and people are really pushing those limits,” says Scott Hassel, a San Francisco marketing executive. “I love animals, but they don’t need to be inserted into everyone else’s lives. I see people bringing pets on airplanes, trains, into grocery stores and restaurants. No one has any consideration for those around them anymore. Just another symptom of the ‘me, me, me’ culture we live in.” Unfortunately for allergy sufferers, it usually doesn’t matter why the animal is in the cabin. Chances are, unless it’s growling, hissing or biting other passengers, it’s staying on board. That means allergy sufferers must take sensible precautions. Calling the airline before your flight to let it know about your allergy is a good first step, although it won’t guarantee a pet-free flight. Carrying an EpiPen or allergy medication is a must, particularly when you’re in an enclosed cabin. Christopher Elliott maintains a consumer advocate website at elliott.org.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Depressed reader seeks employment Dear Annie: I’m 63 and fat, have been divorced for 20 years and live at the poverty level on social security. I am depressed and do not see the point of anything. My three adult children are grown and are truly great people. I see all of them about once a week. I also have two wonderful grandchildren. They are my only success, but they have their own lives. I would like a part-time job, but cannot stand for more than five minutes at a time because of my weight. I just started a medical weight loss program, but it will be at least a year before the results will make a difference. I sleep 10 to 12 hours a day because I don’t want to think about my life. My doctor suggested taking more of my antidepressant, but it has not helped. Do you know of anything that will? — Lonely and Depressed in Indy Dear Lonely: First talk to your doctor about changing your antidepressant. You may have built up a tolerance, making it less effective. Then check your state, city and county government offices for jobs for women, seniors and the disabled, or for vocational training services to learn to do computer work from home. You might also find help through the U.S. Dept. of Labor (doleta.gov) or through servicelocator.org at 1-877-US2-JOBS. Please don’t give up. Dear Annie: This is the first letter I’ve ever written to an advice column, but I’d like to present the other side of the story. I read the letter from “No Lights,” who complained about her husband, to whom she’s been married for 40 years. She said he neglects her and their home, has had numerous affairs, and “forces” her to have sex. You said it seemed abusive. Having lived a similar life, here’s my take: I have been married for 35 years to a woman who is depressed, overweight and neglectful. I still love her, but she makes it difficult. We haven’t had sex in more than 14 years because she doesn’t care for it.

And she won’t talk about it with me or see a counselor. She hasn’t kissed or hugged me in just as long of a time. When I try to hug her, she says, “Leave me alone.” We don’t go anywhere together. We don’t sleep together. She says it’s my fault, but our grown children know that’s not true. There are reasons people do what they do, but it’s not always the fault of one person. I admit my part in this, but at least I’m willing to discuss it and clear the air. It’s not always the husband’s fault. — P. Dear P.: We appreciate your input and don’t deny that some wives can be difficult and problems with intimacy run both ways. We know that some unhappy couples claim to love each other and choose to stay together, but it doesn’t justify neglect, forced sex and multiple affairs. This is why we recommend counseling for those who are miserable, whether your spouse goes or not. When partners treat each other disrespectfully and abusively, they are better off apart. Dear Annie: I appreciate your printing the letter about the rare congenital disorder schizencephaly. As a pathologist with special training in childhood diseases, I would also like to bring attention to the nonprofit organization known as NORD (National Organization for Rare Disorders). They are headquartered in Danbury, Conn. Their website, www. rarediseases.org, has a wealth of information about rare diseases, most of which become symptomatic in infancy or childhood. Their user-friendly website has separate sections for patients and their families, patient support organizations, and medical professionals. — J.W. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column. Please email your questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or write to: Annie’s Mailbox, c/o Creators Syndicate, 737 3rd Street, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You might want to ask some questions if a loved one becomes overassertive. Tonight: Take a midweek break. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Seek out more information. Honor a change in your life, but expect to bypass the issue at hand. Tonight: Opt for some kind of mental distraction. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You might come off as being feistier than you realize. A friendship will allow you to express some of your resistance. Tonight: Go with someone else’s suggestion. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Allow more give-and-take with a very strong associate. This person might need to feel recognized. Tonight: Where the gang is. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You could be questioning what would be the best way to handle a volatile situation. Tonight: Get as much done on your to-do list as possible. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You could be at your wits’ end and feel unsure about what needs to happen or what you should do. Tonight: Make the most of the moment. Jacqueline Bigar
