In a written statement, Squier said the governor’s transition period into a second term “is the most appropriate

In her own statement, Martinez praised Squier’s work, including in the areas that have come under greatest attack from her critics. “Her leadership has been valuable and important during all of the health care changes going on in our country, and I wish her the very best in her future work,” Martinez said.

ov. Susana Martinez’s re-election is seen by her supporters as an affirmation that her policies — including her educational reform initiatives — are working. And with Republicans now controlling the House of Representatives for the first time in 60 years by a margin of 37-33, she’ll find more political support for those initiatives. Supporters say she will continue to push for an end to social promotion for third-graders who can’t read proficiently and that she won’t step back from the state’s new teacher evaluation system. “She doesn’t have the time to not push her issues,” said Rep. Jimmie Hall, R-Albuquerque. “She’ll put her foot to the accelerator.” “Most of our initiatives are already moving forward,” said Sen. Gay Kernan, R-Hobbs. “The election certainly gives her another four years to turn those into something we can all live with after this administration leaves.” But Democrats aren’t so sure the initiatives will be something they can “live with.” Rep.

raphaelson claims term ends in 2 years, filing for retention was error By Phaedra Haywood the new Mexican

First Judicial District Judge Sheri Raphaelson, whom voters in Tuesday’s election chose not to keep in office, says her name shouldn’t have been on the ballot, and she intends to remain on the bench for two more years. Raphaelson, who won a partisan election in 2010, told First District Chief Judge Ray Ortiz in a letter Thursday that she does not intend to leave her post until 2016, when her six-year elected term is scheduled to end. Sheri “I’m writing to advise you that I acknowledge the unofficial elections Raphaelson results indicate that I did not obtain the legally required 57% ‘yes’ vote on the recent retention election,” she wrote. “Assuming the official results reflect the unofficial results, my term will be expiring. Rest assured, I plan to finish out the remainder of the term for which I was elected.” Ortiz said late Thursday that under his interpretation of the law, Raphaelson’s position is “completely unwarranted” and that her name was “properly included on the ballot.” But he said the issue will probably have to be sorted out by the state Supreme Court. State law requires judges who are up for retention to file a declaration of candidacy in order to have

In brief

JERUSALEM — In an attempt at diplomatic damage control, Israel’s prime minister reassured Jordan’s king Thursday that he won’t yield to increasing demands by some members of his center-right coalition to allow Jews to pray at a Muslim-run holy site in Jerusalem. The phone call between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and King Abdullah II came a day after riot police clashed with Palestinians at the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Jordan, which is the custodian of the site, recalled its ambassador in protest.

DES MOINES, Iowa — S. Donald Stookey is no household name, but his best-known invention truly is: CorningWare, the durable, heatresistant ceramic glass used since the 1950s to make millions upon millions of baked lasagnas. The scientist, who died Tuesday at 99, created a type of glass so strong that the military used it in guided missile nose cones. His space-age material found a home in most American kitchens in the form of white dishes decorated with small blue flowers. Stanley Donald Stookey died at an assisted-living center in Rochester, N.Y., said his son Donald Stookey.

GPS device helped police rescue woman PHILADELPHIA — A woman snatched off the streets of Philadelphia was rescued with the help of a GPS device that had been installed on the suspect’s car by the dealer in case the vehicle needed to be repossessed, authorities said Thursday. It was just the latest arrest made possible by the surveillance technology and involved not just GPS but surveillance video, traffic-camera imagery and a left-behind cellphone. Carlesha Freeland-Gaither, 22, was resting at home in Philadelphia after a three-day ordeal that ended in Jessup, Md., on Wednesday and seized her alleged kidnapper, Delvin Barnes, 37, who was jailed on unrelated charges.

Target: Women and girls el Salvador’s gang members are initiated into rape and murder By Alberto Arce

The Associated Press

SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador n a country terrorized by gangsters, it is left to the dead to break the silence on sexual violence. Rather, to the bodies of dead women and girls pulled from clandestine graves. Raped, battered and sometimes cut to pieces, they attest to the sadistic abuse committed by members of street gangs. Those who gather statistics say there are no reliable numbers on sexual violence in El Salvador. Threats prevent many from reporting attacks. Others who have grown up amid abuse may not recognize rape as a crime. Still others flee the country rather than seek justice from a system that more often delivers impunity. U.S. immigration attorneys say there has been a dramatic increase in the number of women and girls from Central America seeking asylum in the United States after having been kidnapped and raped. “We are seeing an exponential increase,” said Lindsay Toczylowski, a lawyer with Catholic Charities in Los Angeles. “It’s the evolution of gang warfare. … It’s what we see in other war situations around the world where rape is used as a weapon.” El Salvador’s 6 million residents suffer the second highest per capita homicide rate in the world after neighboring Honduras. In a land of lakes and volcanos, clandestine graves appear like wild mushrooms after a rainstorm. In the evening, the cacophony of San Salvador traf-

fic gives way to the squeals of wild parrots and, sometimes, to wails of grief. Most of the violence is the handiwork of the Mara Salvatrucha and 18th Street gangs, which were formed by immigrants in the United States, then returned home and grew into warring forces of tens of thousands of gangsters. The official numbers show just 239 women and girls among the murdered so far this year, about a tenth of the number of men, with 201 others reported missing. Through August, 361 rapes were reported. But the statistics don’t begin to tell the story. Worldwide, women generally report only 20 percent of rapes, according to the World Health Organization, and that percentage is likely lower in El Salvador. The missing and dead also may be underreported. Criminologist Israel Ticas, who digs up clandestine graves for the Attorney General’s Office, says more than half of the 90 sites he has excavated in the last 12 years contained the remains of murdered women and girls. “For sure there are hundreds of these cases and maybe thousands out there,” Ticas said. His field notes, augmented by interviews with protected witnesses, provide a window into the abuse. He randomly selects a case from one of his journals: u “7 June 2013 in Santa Tecla, the girlfriend of a gang member recruited two friends to go to a party. The gangsters suspected that one of the girls betrayed them, talking to a rival gang. Eight men raped the girls. First two were killed with multiple knife wounds. The third was held for 24 hours while they asked for ransom, but when they couldn’t get the money they killed her, too. The three were dismembered. They were 12, 13 and 14 years

old.” Ticas closes the worn book and opens another: u “27 October 2011, Colonia Montes, San Salvador. A 16-year-old girl approached a gang member out of curiosity. She wanted to be his girlfriend and they had sex. After, he turned her over to his clique as a prize. After they raped her, they cut her in pieces. u “April 21, 2014 in Ahuachapan, I worked on the body of a young woman who was about 18 years old, killed 43 months before. She was mummified, her painted red fingernails had been perfectly conserved. She was halfway buried in the middle of a sugar cane plantation. She had been killed by asphyxiation, with multiple nooses pulled in different directions by various men. She had been gang raped, with serious damage to her sexual organ, and we never could identify her.” “How many more do you want?” Ticas asks, pointing to a dozen journals filled with photographs, drawings and notes. Sandra, 18, is among those who escaped. Offering only her first name and speaking in Los Angeles, where she was awaiting an immigration hearing, she described violence as a part of life in El Salvador. First, a classmate became pregnant by a gang member. Then, the cousin of another classmate disappeared. Young gang members are initiated into rape and murder to prove their mettle and ensure their silence about crimes. El Salvador’s Security Ministry has registered more than 1,500 gang cliques. “All of the gang members victimize women. All of the cliques behave this way,” said Silvia Juarez, a lawyer with the Gender Violence Observatory. “If there are 60,000 or 70,000 gangsters, imagine how many women they have abused.”

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Despite being charged with violating a new law by feeding the homeless in South Florida, 90-year-old Arnold Abbott said he’s not deterred and even went back out to serve more food at a public park. The faceoff in Fort Lauderdale over the ordinance restricting public feeding of the homeless has pitted those with compassionate aims against residents and businesses trying to protect their neighborhoods. Abbott, affectionately known as “Chef Arnold,” and two South Florida ministers were charged last weekend as they handed out food. They were accused of breaking the ordinance and each faces up to 60 days in jail and a $500 fine. “One of the police officers said, ‘Drop that plate right now,’ as if I were carrying a weapon,” Abbott said. But on Wednesday night, Abbott and others served a four-course meal by the beach as police filmed from a distance and a crowd of nearly 100 mostly homeless and volunteers cheered their arrival. “God bless you, Arnold!” some shouted. Others carried signs in support of Abbott. Abbott, a World War II veteran and civil rights activist, told The Associated Press that he has been serving the homeless for more than two decades in honor of his late wife. He has several programs, including a culinary school to train the homeless and help find them jobs in local kitchens. Rosemarie Servoky broke through the crowd Wednesday night to hug Abbott. Servoky, 68, and a graduate of Arnold’s culinary program, said he saved her life. Several police officers watched and allowed Abbott’s crew to feed everyone before issuing Abbott another citation. Fort Lauderdale’s ordinance took effect Friday, and the city passed a slew of laws addressing homelessness in recent months.

Jihadis ISIS suffering setbacks cruise U.S. airstrikes in Iraq and Syria inflict to Syria heavy damage

More than 600 U.S. service members since 2003 have reported to military medical staff members that they believe they were exposed to chemical warfare agents in Iraq, but the Pentagon failed to recognize the scope of the reported cases or offer adequate tracking and treatment to those who may have been injured, defense officials say. The Pentagon’s disclosure abruptly changed the scale and potential costs of U.S. encounters with abandoned chemical weapons during the occupation of Iraq, episodes the military had for more than a decade kept from view. This previously untold chapter of the occupation became public after an investigation by The New York Times revealed last month that while troops did not find an active weapons

The Associated Press

MONACO — Would-be jihadi fighters are increasingly booking tickets on cruise ships to join extremists in battle zones in Syria and Iraq, hoping to bypass stepped-up efforts to thwart them in neighboring Turkey, Interpol officials have told The Associated Press. This is one of the reasons why the international police body is preparing to expand a pilot program known as I-Checkit, under which airlines bounce passenger information off Interpol’s databases. Turkey, with its long and often porous border with Syria, has been a major thoroughfare for many of the thousands of foreign fighters seeking to join extremists like the Islamic State group, which has captured territory across Iraq and Syria. Speaking in Monaco, where Interpol is holding its general assembly this week, outgoing chief Ronald Noble confirmed that Turkey was a destination, but declined to identify any others. He also refused to indicate how many people might be involved. But Noble called on countries to step up screening at all transportation hubs — “airports and, more and more, cruise lines.” Pierre St. Hilaire, director of counterterrorism at Interpol, suggested that the Turkish crackdown has shown results in recent months. So, many of the would-be jihadis are making alternative travel plans. “Because they know the airports are monitored more closely now, there’s a use of cruise ships to travel to those areas,” he said. Cruise ships, which often make repeated stops, offer an added benefit by allowing jihadis to hop off undetected at any number of ports. Thus, it makes efforts to track them more difficult. HEALTH INSURANCE and

BEIRUT — For a force that has built its reputation on an aura of momentum and invincibility, the Islamic State group is now dealing with a series of military setbacks in Iraq and a prolonged stalemate in the small Syrian border town of Kobani. Gone are the days when the Islamic State group was able to seize territory in both countries with relative ease. Its newfound problems, including a loss of oil revenue, raise questions about the extent to which it will be able to continue recruiting fighters who want to be with a winner. “[The Islamic State group] has run a very effective psychological campaign to intimidate its rivals and attract support and recruits,” said Faysal Itani, a resident fellow at the Atlantic Council, using an acronym for the extremists. But now, he said, the need to maintain its reputation is limiting the group’s options. This is particularly true in Kobani, where a pre-emptive the Islamic State group withdrawal in the face of U.S.-led bombings from the sky and ethnic Kurdish fighters on the ground could prove too costly. “They have invested a lot in this battle, and people are noticing. They will soon start asking what’s going on?” said Ayed, a Turkey-based Syrian activist. The prolonged fighting in Kobani also is distracting the Islamic State group from more strategically important areas in Syria and Iraq where the militant extremists are already stretched on multiple fronts. Nearly two months after the Islamic State group launched its lightning assault on Kobani, the Kurdish-dominated town near Turkish border, the group is bogged down in an increasingly entrenched and costly battle. Syrian and Kurdish activists estimate nearly 600 Islamic State fighters have been killed — its heaviest losses since taking over large parts of Syria and Iraq in a summer blitz. Kurdish residents say the group appears to be struggling

with personnel, bringing in inexperienced fighters and new recruits to reinforce the town. These include members of the Islamic State group police force known as Hisba, reassigned from nearby towns and cities, such as Raqqa and Manbij, under the group’s control. “Many Hisba members have left Raqqa in the past two weeks, telling people they were headed to Kobani,” Ayed said. They are not fighters.” Kobani residents say recent U.S. airstrikes targeting the Islamic State group in Kobani have inflicted heavy damage. “Their bodies are left for days rotting in the street without anyone picking them up,” said Farhad Shami, a Kobani-based activist. In a move that some observers interpreted as a sign of weakness, the Islamic State group recently released a video showing a captive British photojournalist “reporting” from a place identified as Kobani. In the video, he says the battle for Kobani “is coming to an end” and the Islamic State group

The Times initially disclosed 17 cases of U.S. service members who were injured by sarin or sulfur mustard agent. But an internal review of Pentagon records ordered by Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel has uncovered that hundreds of troops told the military they believe they were exposed. Having not acted for years on that data, the Pentagon says it will now expand outreach to veterans. Col. Jerome Buller, a spokesman for the Army surgeon general, said Thursday that the review showed that 629 people answered yes to that question.

is “mopping up.” But despite seven weeks of fierce fighting and the reinforcements on both sides, fighting positions around Kobani remain much the same as they did several weeks ago, with the Islamic State group controlling about 40 percent of the town, according to Syrian and Kurdish activists and observers. The Islamic State group also has recently suffered losses on several fronts in Iraq, where it is fighting government forces, peshmerga and Shiite militias aided by Iran and the Lebanese Hezbollah group. The group’s diminishing returns in Iraq partly reflects the fact that it already controls so much of the territory populated by minority Sunnis. Bayan Jabr, an Iraqi cabinet minister, said the Islamic State Group was simply fighting too many battles. He predicted a Sunni uprising in Anbar province following the massacres targeting the Al Bu Nimr tribe. “I think Daesh is starting to fade,” he said, using the Arab acronym for the group.

And they will take control of the House Education Committee. “Democrats can bring up issues or argue points, but they will no longer have the power to pass those bills through committee,” he said. Hall said he would seriously consider taking over the role of House Education Committee chair if it is offered to him. Stewart said she’d like to see Rep. Dennis Roch, R-Logan, a school superintendent, in that role. Roch did not return a call seeking comment. Stewart said the weight of succeeding with education now falls on the Republicans. “It’s not going to be easy on them. These problems are hard to solve. And we as Democrats in control have been struggling with them. What are they going to do now? What are their answers to the problems?” she asked. “They haven’t had any answers.” Martinez at times struck a bipartisan tone during her Tuesday speech. She will have to win the support of the Democratcontrolled Senate to successfully move any education bills out of the Roundhouse. Both Kernan and Sen. Howie Morales, D-Silver City, a member of the Legislative Education Study Committee, said the senate maintains a Democratic majority and can stop any new social promotion or retention bill the governor introduces. Sen. John Sapien, D-Corrales, chairman of the Legislative Education Study Committee — who said he will be introducing his own reading intervention bill that does not include mandatory retention — said Thursday the Senate will be “looking for a bill that does not include retention.”

Skandera will have to undergo yet another hearing by the Senate Rules Committee, chaired by Sen. Linda Lopez, D-Albuquerque. That committee can vote to recommend — or not — moving the confirmation vote to the Senate. If the Senate votes against confirming Skandera, she would be removed from office. Skandera supporters want the Senate to make that decision this coming year. “One way or another that situation needs to be resolved,” Kernan said. Morales agrees, though he plans to vote “no.” Sen. Stuart Ingle, R-Portales, a Skandera supporter, said it’s time the Senate confirms her. “Hopefully this time we can get past some of the stuff that we have had to deal with in the past — an eight-hour hearing with testimony,” he said, referring to the lengthy debates and questions that took place during the past few Senate Rules Committee hearings for Skandera. “Every governor has a right to pick Cabinet people. We don’t have to agree with them, but hopefully we can get that vote done.” Sapien said given Skandera’s high profile in the country, he would not be surprised if she moved on to a similar leadership post in another state “sooner rather than later.” But several Republicans and even teacher union heads said they do not foresee that happening. The Public Education Department said this week that Skandera is not going anywhere. Neither Lopez nor Senate Majority Leader Michael Sanchez, D-Albuquerque, returned a call seeking comment for this story. Contact Robert Nott at 986-3021 or rnott@sfnewmexican.com.

FBI: Agent claimed to be AP reporter By Chris Grygiel

The Associated Press

SEATTLE — FBI Director James Comey says an agent impersonated an Associated Press reporter during a 2007 criminal investigation, a ruse the news organization says could undermine its credibility. In a letter Thursday to The New York Times, Comey said the agent “portrayed himself as an employee of The Associated Press” to help catch a 15-year-old suspect accused of making bomb threats at a high school near Olympia, Wash. It was publicized last week that the FBI forged an AP story during its investigation, but Comey’s letter revealed the agency went further and had an agent actually pretend to be a reporter for the wire service. Comey said the agent posing as an AP reporter asked

the suspect to review a fake AP article about threats and cyberattacks directed at the school, “to be sure that the anonymous suspect was portrayed fairly.” The bogus article contained a software tool that could verify Internet addresses. The suspect clicked on a link, revealing his computer’s location and Internet address, which helped agents confirm his identity. “That technique was proper and appropriate under Justice Department and FBI guidelines at the time. Today, the use of such an unusual technique would probably require higherlevel approvals than in 2007, but it would still be lawful and, in a rare case, appropriate,” Comey wrote. Kathleen Carroll, executive editor of the AP, said the FBI’s actions were “unacceptable.”

Gay: 6th Circuit panel’s ruling draws criticism, faces challenge Continued from Page A-1 In Thursday’s 2-1 decision, by a panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati, Sutton said that it appears almost inevitable that the American law will allow gay couples to marry. But the more fundamental question, he wrote, is: “Who decides?” Sutton said that such a profound change in the institution of marriage should be decided not by “an intermediate court” like his, but by “the less expedient, but usually reliable, work of the state democratic processes.” He dismissed the reasoning issued in the last year by several other federal courts, which have ruled that barring same-sex marriage violated equal protection or due process clauses of the Constitution and has no convincing rationale. Michael C. Dorf, a Cornell University Law School professor, said that “the essence of this opinion is that the issue should be left to the democratic process or to the Supreme Court, but I’m not going to do this as an appeals court judge.” In a stinging dissent, Judge Martha Craig Daughtrey, an appointee of President Bill Clinton, called the majority opinion “a largely irrelevant discourse on democracy and federalism” that treated the couples involved in the cases as “mere abstractions” rather than as real people suffering harm because they were denied equal status. Gay rights groups and lawyers for the plaintiffs in the four affected states expressed disappointment and anger. “We’re extremely disappointed for the families in these four states, but this decision highlights the need for the U.S. Supreme Court to right this injustice,” said Susan Sommer, the director of constitutional litigation for Lambda Legal, which helped argue one of the six cases involved in Thursday’s decision. The 6th Circuit decision was not a complete surprise; Sutton had expressed similar concerns about federalism and reliance on the democratic process at the hearing on the cases in

SLEEP CENTER

The U.S. Supreme Court has allowed rulings in favor of gay marriage from four other circuit courts to take effect. August. He was joined in the opinion by Judge Deborah L. Cook, another Bush appointee. But since then, the Supreme Court, by declining to hear appeals, has allowed rulings in favor of gay marriage from four other circuit courts to take effect. The number of states with same-sex marriage jumped last month to 32, plus the District of Columbia, with shifts in three more states all but certain. In decisions last month declining to hear appeals, justices did not rule on the merits of the cases. But by acquiescing in the court-mandated spread of same-sex marriage to many states, justices effectively created a new social reality, making it extremely unlikely, many legal experts say, that the court would now find such bans constitutional. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg later explained that the lack of a split in the appeals courts made Supreme Court review of the issue unnecessary. “If the court reversed those decisions, it would create chaos,” Dorf said. “It would seem highly unlikely, but technically they can do it.” Evan Wolfson, the president of Freedom to Marry, an advocacy group, said: “Today’s ruling is completely out of step with the Supreme Court’s clear signal last month, out of step with the constitutional command as recognized by nearly every state and federal court in the past year, and out of step with the majority of the American people.” He called on the Supreme Court to take up the issue quickly and provide national resolution. But conservative opponents of same-sex marriage, who see states-rights arguments as their last best hope in the courts, praised the decision. “The people of every state should remain free to affirm marriage as the union of a man

and a woman in their laws,” said Byron Babione, senior counsel with Alliance Defending Freedom, a Christian legal group that has argued several samesex marriage cases. “As the 6th Circuit rightly concluded, the Constitution does not demand that one irreversible view of marriage be judicially imposed on everyone.” In the cases decided Thursday, couples from Kentucky and Michigan had asked lower courts to overturn state amendments barring same-sex marriage. Couples from Ohio and Tennessee had asked the courts to require the states to recognize same-sex marriages performed legally in other states. “This ruling means that many couples like April DeBoer and Jayne Rowse will continue to be excluded from the protections and responsibilities that come with marriage,” said Equality Michigan, an advocacy group, referring to the plaintiffs in the case there. Many experts had expected the Supreme Court to take on a marriage case this fall. But in September, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said that the justices might wait — as they in fact have — for a division to emerge among federal circuit courts of appeals. “So far, the federal courts of appeals have answered the question the same way — holding unconstitutional the bans on same-sex marriage,” she told an audience in Minnesota. “There is a case now pending before the Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit,” she said, referring to the cases decided Thursday. “Now if that court should disagree with the others then there will be some urgency in the court taking the case,” she said. “Sooner or later, yes, the question will come to the court,” she said. The Associated Press contributed to this report.

In July, the department added another $18.6 million to subsidize the care of infants and toddlers. With the increase, overall state funding for child care centers reached $90 million. But Padilla and other advocates of early childhood education say the state still does not have a comprehensive program that would get the best results and ultimately improve New Mexico’s economy. Miguel Gomez, an executive of St. Joseph’s Children, has called various legislators’ claims of substantial funding increases for early childhood programs “disingenuous.” “The overwhelming majority of that money went to kids in grades K through 3,” Gomez said in a recent interview. “To change long-term outcomes in education, you need to start early.

Republicans are counting on a swift vote in early 2015 on building the Keystone XL pipeline to carry oil from Canada to the U.S. Gulf Coast now that Republicans clearly have the numbers in the Senate. AssoCIATEd PrEss FIlE PHoTo

Tuesday. Despite widely publicized difficulties managing his fractious rank and file in the past four years, he is assured of a new term as speaker when Congress convenes in January. This time, unlike the others, the man in charge of the Senate’s agenda will be a Republican. Sen. Mitch McConnell, the incoming majority leader, is from Kentucky, a state that neighbors Ohio.

Even before confronting Democrats and the White House, the two are likely to face a steady stream of management challenges from within as they pursue a GOP agenda. Among them are a strong presence of tea party-backed lawmakers in both houses, softer-edged, conservative swing-state senators who will be on the ballot in 2016, and a group of presidential hopefuls that includes Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas, Marco Rubio of Florida

and Rand Paul from McConnell’s own state of Kentucky. Boehner defended most of the newcomers to the ranks of House Republicans after he was asked about one who has said Hillary Rodham Clinton is the “Antichrist” and another who said family members of victims of the Sandy Hook elementary shootings should get over the experience. “When you look at the vast majority of the new members that are coming in here, they’re really solid members,” he said. Boehner’s news conference followed McConnell’s first postelection meeting with reporters by one day. So far, neither man has made much of what is expected to be an all-out Republican assault on federal deficits. The party has passed budgets through the House in recent years that eliminate deficits in a decade. The likely chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama, said in a pre-election interview that was his timetable as well. Achieving that goal without tax increases will require significant savings from benefit programs like food stamps, welfare and possibly Medicare and Social Security over the next decade. At his news conference, Boehner also said Congress will vote to repeal the health care

law that stands as Obama signature domestic accomplishment, but Boehner conceded the measure may not clear the Senate despite a new GOP majority. Democrats will have more than enough seats to block passage. Instead, the speaker said the Republican-controlled Congress might seek piecemeal changes in the law, which he said repeatedly “is hurting our economy.” He mentioned measures to repeal a medical device tax, abolish an advisory board that is charged with recommending cuts to Medicare in future years, and repealing a requirement for individuals to purchase coverage. The first is a provision that many Democrats oppose and have indicated privately they would like to jettison. Abolition of the second would greatly undercut the legislation’s claimed deficit savings in future years. Obama made it clear on Wednesday at a White House news conference he opposes ending the coverage requirement. Despite Obama’s remarks, Boehner said, “There are bipartisan majorities in the House and Senate to take some of these issues out of ‘Obamacare.’ We need to put them on the president’s desk and let him choose.”

His call echoes those tion changes. “The Republicans of some of the party’s potential can overreact and give the

impression that they’re not so much against the concept of executive action but that they’re against immigrants. And that would be a big problem.” Some possible GOP presidential contenders, including Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, have signaled a desire to tackle an overhaul of the nation’s immigration system next year. Others outside Washington, including Govs. Chris Christie of New Jersey and Rick Perry of Texas, have taken measures to appeal to Hispanics, including passing laws that allow some children of immigrants here illegally to pay in-state tuition at public colleges. And not all Republicans agree that aggressive opposition to an executive action will yield an electoral disaster. Republican consultant Mike McKenna, who conducts polls and focus groups in several states, said that unless the president’s effort is modest, “he’s going to sink the (Democratic) party for 2016.” Obama faces enormous pressure to act from Latinos, an important part of the Democratic base. Immigrant advocates, labor leaders and others called on the president Thursday to act boldly, and dared Republicans to stand in his way. “If they come after him,” said AFL-CIO head Richard Trumka, Democrats will say, “Look, the lunatics are already running the asylum.” Advocates say the White House is weighing actions that

would apply to those who meet a certain term of U.S. residency, perhaps 10 years. Also under consideration is whether to include parents of those who received deportation deferrals under Obama, or only parents of children who are U.S. citizens because they were born here. Hispanic voters were an important part of Obama’s support in his presidential campaigns and are seen as a crucial voting bloc in the years to come.

he Navy SEAL who fired the shot that killed Osama bin Laden is a highly decorated veteran of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan who agonized for months over whether to publicly reveal his role in one of the most storied commando operations in U.S. history. Robert O’Neill, 38, a Montana native, was near the head of the column of U.S. soldiers that burst into bin Laden’s Pakistan hideout on May 2, 2011. In a recent interview, O’Neill confirmed to The Washington Post that he fired the fatal shot that struck bin Laden in the forehead. He also acknowledged that shots were fired by at least two other SEAL team members, including Mark Bissonnette, who famously described the raid in the book, No Easy Day. O’Neill was preparing to make his story public next week with interviews on Fox News and in The Washington Post, but his identity was disclosed pre-emptively by the website SOFREP, operated by former SEAL members, in a protest over O’Neill’s decision to reveal his role in the mission. Over the course of several meetings with The Post, O’Neill said he decided to go public after becoming convinced that his identity was about to be leaked by others. What once was a closely guarded secret had spread widely through military circles, he said, and was known by members of Congress and at least two news organizations. His impending decision had also fostered anger among colleagues. In an Oct. 31 letter to the Naval Special Warfare ranks, B.L. Losey, the commanding officer, and M.L. Magaraci, the force master chief, emphasized that a “critical” tenet of their profession is to “not advertise the nature of my work nor seek recognition for my action.” O’Neill said he confirmed his decision to go public after a private encounter with relatives of victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, attack on New York’s World Trade Center. During an emotional meeting with victims’ family members before the recent opening of the National September 11 Memorial Museum, the former SEAL decided spontaneously to talk about how bin

Laden met his end. “The families told me it helped bring them some closure,” said O’Neill, whose idenOsama tity as the bin Laden shooter was independently corroborated for The Post by two SEAL team members. O’Neill had previously recounted his experiences to journalist Phil Bronstein for a February 2013 Esquire magazine article that, by agreement, referred to him only as “the shooter.” In the piece, he described advancing through bin Laden’s Abbottabad, Pakistan, compound with five other SEALs, eventually reaching the third floor, where bin Laden lived with his wives. As other team members peeled off to search different rooms, O’Neill found himself in the No. 2 position, behind the point man, for the final assault on bin Laden’s bedroom. When bin Laden briefly appeared at the door, the SEAL at the front of the line fired a shot that apparently missed. “I rolled past him into the room, just inside the doorway,” O’Neill recalled. “There was bin Laden, standing there. He had his hands on a woman’s shoulders pushing her ahead.” Though the room was dark, O’Neill could clearly see bin Laden’s features through his night-vision scope. “In that second, I shot him, two times in the forehead,” O’Neill was quoted in the Esquire article as saying. “Bap! Bap! The second time, as he is going down. He crumbled to the floor in front of his bed and I hit him again.” O’Neill told The Post that it was clear bin Laden had died instantly, as his skull had been split by the first bullet. At the time of the raid, O’Neil had served nearly 15 years as a SEAL, eventually earning a spot in the elite unit known as SEAL Team 6. He served in other celebrated missions, including the 2009 rescue of merchant marine Capt. Richard Phillips from pirates off the coast of Somalia, as depicted in the 2013 movie Captain Phillips. While other missions were likely more dangerous, the bin Laden raid was the first in which he believed he would likely be killed, O’Neill told The Post. The SEALs assumed that bin Laden’s compound would be both heavily guarded and booby-trapped. “I didn’t think I would survive,” he said.

Fracking threatens forest, ecosystem

he New Mexican is to be commended (“Time to save Chaco is now,” Our View, Oct. 30) for opposing oil and gas drilling at Chaco Canyon. But did you know that the Santa Fe National Forest is also being sold for fracking? On Oct. 22, the Bureau of Land Management sold 20,000 acres of leases along the Continental Divide, some near the towns of Regina and Gallina, where the headwaters of the Rio Chama collect. BLM proudly announced it raised $4 million through the sale (Local news in brief,” Oct. 23). But that money will be spent on preparing more sales, which amounts to yet another federal subsidy for the oil and gas industry, and the forest will be destroyed and the future impoverished. Our ecosystem, climate, water, wildlife and traditional cultures will pay the ultimate price. New Mexico is a top producer of coal, oil and gas, but at the bottom in terms of poverty, health and education. The oil wealth is going to the sociopathic 1 percent at the top. Industry is promoting dangerous, unnecessary fracking throughout the San Juan Basin and in our forests. The time to stop them is now. Charlotte Levinson

Judge dogs fairly I never thought I would quote Snoopy. However, he said it best in this morning’s Peanuts comic (Nov. 2). “There’s no one who causes more trouble in this world than humans.” The humans who run area apartment complexes and perpetrate the ignorance behind breed discrimination should be boycotted.

Squier’s departure good for state

T Can anyone guarantee that a dog will always behave the way we humans would like? Of course not! German shepherds help police and aid us in fighting wars. Pit bulls were once considered nanny dogs for their loyalty. Because of the increase in human stupidity, dog breeds that were once beloved family members are now used to hold up the heels of machismo’s boots. If you are going to restrict breeds, then please consider restricting ignorance as well. Just like humans, dogs should be judged on a case-by-case basis. Anna Soeiro

Offensive column When I saw the column “Ask a Mexican,” I thought its purpose was to answer questions about the way Mexican people think about political and social issues. Luckily, I contacted The New Mexican and was told that in fact the column was not an attempt to lump all Mexicans together; it merely expressed the opinions of the columnist. Additionally it was explained to me that the column was meant to be funny.

What a relief! Next can we have a column titled “Ask an African,” with a picture of Little Black Sambo asleep under a tree?

Brittany’s choice: A sense of giving

A-9

rittany Maynard’s ordeal is now over. On Nov. 1, the 29-year-old with terminal brain cancer, who became the face of a movement to allow dying patients to choose when to end their lives, used the pills provided by her Oregon physician and died. Compassion and Choices, the nonprofit Maynard worked with, reported that “she died as she intended — peacefully in her bedroom, in the arms of her loved ones.” I would trade quite a few more days (especially days spent with searing pain or doped into semi-consciousness in an effort to manage symptoms) for the ability to say my goodbyes and die like that. We all know by now that the best death is not the one that can be postponed the longest. The most striking thing about Maynard was the way she transformed herself so quickly, with an essay, from just another person into a warrior with a mission. But this is in keeping with the way many terminally ill people behave. They often spend their remaining days trying to improve the lot of those who will suffer similar illnesses in the future. Some, like Maynard, campaign for policy changes. Some offer themselves as subjects for medical experimentation, knowing full well that any findings will not help them. Some participate in support groups for those with similar medical prognoses. “I didn’t launch this campaign because I wanted attention; in fact, it’s hard for me to process it all. I did this because I want to see a world where everyone has access

to death with dignity, as I have had. My journey is easier because of this choice,” Maynard wrote on Oct. 9. In that way, she gave meaning to her final days in a way that a series of purely self-centered decisions never could have. Discussions about physician-assisted suicide — and Maynard’s death — almost inevitably focus on what’s good for the terminally ill patient. But not every patient takes such a self-centered approach. A self-centered life, focused on personal gratification, aggrandizement and comfort, may or may not be good for the one living it. But a self-centered death is not. If all we care about is ourselves, everything we care about will perish in our death. That is unbearable. Those who see themselves as connected to something bigger and more enduring than themselves, however, can die in a context of meaning and purpose. For some, religion provides this connection. But religion doesn’t always work. Many cannot summon the necessary theological convictions, especially on demand. And some kinds of religion fail at the end of life. A Christian oncologist told me that she deals with many patients who die filled with rage against God. For others, a sense of connection comes from family, a deeply felt affinity with the natural world, or commitment to some ongoing endeavor such as art, science or efforts on behalf of disadvantaged kids. This approach clearly spoke to Maynard, who wrote that she worried she’d soon be unable to recognize her husband;

her family moved with her to Oregon so she could die there. For those who live a life of connection, when illness threatens to sever the connections, it is time to go. But the survivors go on, burdened or blessed with the memory of the death of their loved one. For them, the death is never the end of the story. And a death in the family — especially a long, drawn-out dying process — can be much worse for the survivors than it was for the deceased. This is part of the reason Maynard gave for opting against hospice care: “I probably would have suffered in hospice care for weeks or even months. And my family would have had to watch that. I did not want this nightmare scenario for my family.” She was looking outside herself. The evaluation of Maynard’s death, and of physician-assisted suicide more generally, must not be exclusively focused on the dying person. That would be to revert to the self-centered, unconnected perspective. Those of us with deep attachments to family and loved ones are all charged with carefully weighing what each of our alternatives probably would mean for our loved ones, with helping them to understand whatever choice we make, and with preparing them, as best we can, to go on to live happy, fulfilled lives without us. John Hardwig is a retired professor of philosophy at the University of Tennessee.

he abrupt resignation of Human Services Department Secretary Sidonie Squier just two days after Gov. Susana Martinez won a second term is a welcome one. Those of us outside the administration looking in can’t know why Squier is out — there are so many reasons she needed to go (of course, she might simply be tired of the job). Whatever the reason, it’s good that Squier is gone. She deserved to be fired, in fact. Just review the record, starting with her ridiculous claim in an email that “there has never been and is not now any significant evidence of hunger in New Mexico.” It was appalling for the head of the agency that helps hungry people to make such a claim. New Mexico is at the top or close to the top in its rates of hunger. But that’s just one reason that Squier was a lousy Cabinet secretary. She, after all, was the one leading the charge to claim fraud among behavioral health providers, causing New Mexico to dump local providers and bring in Arizona companies to run the programs. So far, we still haven’t seen proof of fraud, and Squier’s behavior in dealing with legislators in charge of oversight of behavioral health was beyond rude. She walked out of a hearing in a huff. She refused to answer questions. We still don’t know what happened with behavioral health. Attorney General-elect Hector Balderas needs to make completing this investigation a priority. Squier certainly didn’t prove the case. More broadly, under her watch the federal food stamps program — now called the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program — is a mess. Her agency hasn’t kept up with new applications, provoking a federal lawsuit that found New Mexico is failing to provide assistance to qualified people in a timely fashion. That’s true of both food and medical assistance. Then, there’s Martinez’s wrong-headed move to require more people who need help buying food to either work or look for work before qualifying. We love work, but with jobs in New Mexico at such short supply, this just means more red tape for already suffering people to maneuver — and more excuses not to help hungry people. (And, more work for state bureaucrats who already can’t keep up with demands on their time.) Even that mean-spirited effort has failed. Squier’s department couldn’t even implement the rules to set up the work requirements correctly. Another lawsuit was filed, which apparently would have been successful. The department suspended the process and plans to start over, it was announced this week, buried in a flurry of election news. Obviously, a Cabinet secretary is working for a boss — and that’s Gov. Martinez. Her next secretary likely also will proceed with trying to reinstitute work requirements for food stamps (affecting about 80,000 people who currently receive benefits). We’d prefer that New Mexico keep the federal waiver that allows the state to suspend the work requirements. We have it through 2015 because our job market is so bad. Then, Human Services Department workers can concentrate on making sure everyone who needs help gets it, as well as continue to straighten out the behavioral health mess. They must keep working to enroll eligible people in Medicaid, too. There’s plenty to do without creating more hoops to jump through. The next Human Services Department secretary needs to have greater compassion for the less fortunate, work better with the Legislature and most of all, have experience in running a bureaucracy. The governor sets the policy. But the appointee steers the ship. For much of her term, Squier was running into rocks. This is a welcome resignation.

The past 100 years Nov. 7, 1914: New York — Women suffrage will get its inning in this city tonight at a mass meeting in Carnegie Hall. Women who have actually cast the ballot in Western states will be on hand to tell their Empire State sisters just how it feels to vote. The theatrical world will be represented by Mrs. Julie Opp Faversham, who will introduce a suffrage resolution, and Edith Wynne Matthison, who will recite the Battle Hymn of the Republic. Nov. 7, 1989: The lead in Santa Fe public schools’ water has not gone away but it is no longer at dangerously high levels recorded earlier this summer in some schools. School officials learned that daily flushing of drinking fountains — a ritual begun the first day of school in August — and continual use of water by students and staff have combined to reduce the concentration of lead to below the recommended level of 20 parts per billion.

Mother doesn’t believe daughter

Dear Annie: My 37-year-old daughter, “Raya,” has claimed that my husband, her stepfather, propositioned her for sex several times when she was a teenager. But she never mentioned it to me until she was in her 20s. Over the years, Raya has needed our help for housing and finances. When she borrows money, she rarely pays us back. Whenever Raya owes us money, she will bring up these accusations. This upsets me very much. I confronted my husband, and he denies anything happened, and I believe him. After all, Raya has a 16-year-old daughter whom she has left in our care many times over the years, often when my husband is home alone. She has never voiced any concern about it. Raya gets angry with me, saying she doesn’t understand why I stay with this man and believe his version of events over hers. I’ve been with my husband for 26 years. He is my best friend. He is also a good man who works hard and is devoted to me. I thought victims avoided their abusers or at least showed some emotional issues in their company, but I have never witnessed anything out of order when Raya is here. She is usually happy around us, comes over on her own to swim in our pool, attends family events and shows up when she knows I’m not home. This doesn’t seem like the behavior of a traumatized person. Raya tells her story to anyone who will listen, and I want her to stop defaming my husband. Do I alienate my daughter for the sake of my marriage? How do we end this nightmare? — Caught in the Middle Dear Caught: Not every abused child reacts the same way, and it is not uncommon for allegations of abuse to surface years after the fact. But we agree that Raya makes it difficult for you not to see ulterior motives. We recommend you and Raya get counseling together (or separately) and see whether you can reach an agreement. Ask your doctor to recommend someone who specializes in this field or contact RAINN (rainn.org) at 800-656-HOPE for a referral.

Dear Annie: I am a 65-year-old grandmother. I still work because we need the extra income. Four days a week, I drive a close relative to her job. It’s 53 miles roundtrip, and she never reimburses me for gasoline. This relative doesn’t have a license or a car, and we live in a rural area where there is no bus service. I am getting depressed over this situation. We cannot talk about it. It’s just expected. What can I do? — Feeling Used Dear Used: Some people don’t realize that an added passenger can be a burden. But unless you want to keep chauffeuring your relative around, you need to speak up. Be kind, saying, “Heloise, I know we both are going in the same direction, but I’d appreciate it if you started contributing toward the gasoline. The next fillup is on you.” If she gets huffy or refuses to pay, simply say that perhaps it is time she finds someone else to drive her. No one can take advantage of you without your permission. Dear Annie: Your response to “Confused Mom and Dad” was right on. There are a lot of adult children who don’t see small changes in their parents’ home as they age. The flip side is parents who don’t realize they need help. My dad didn’t notice the piles of magazines on every surface. When I realized this accumulation was a hazard, I said my children needed magazines for art projects. The liberated magazines were then recycled. I found other small “projects” that took 15 minutes during my weekly visits. Dad didn’t notice, but I’m sure my small changes made his house safer. I wasn’t telling Dad how to do things in his own home, which would have led to arguments and resentment. — Observant Fibber Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Plan for armed officers in high schools ‘done’ Board president says district has better uses for $70K after city stalls deal By Daniel J. Chácon and Robert Nott The New Mexican

A plan to station an armed and uniformed cop at Capital High School and Santa Fe High School appears to be dead.

The city and the school board had been working together on the deal for two school resources officers since at least January. The plan was to split the cost of the two officers, with the district contributing $70,000. But the plan stalled late last month when city councilors, saying they were “clueless” about the deal, asked that it go through the body’s committee process. Members of the school board

said Wednesday that they had been working on the plan with city staff for months, and the council was wrong in thinking the deal hadn’t been properly vetted. The board plans to revisit the idea at its Nov. 18 meeting, but “as far as I’m concerned, we’re done,” school board President Steven Carrillo said Thursday. The school resource officers would be responsible for school safety, building relation-

ships with students and staff members, helping with truancy issues and guarding against outside threats, among other duties. School board members and police Chief Eric Garcia, who supports the idea, say officers spend a lot of time responding to calls from school campuses all year long, and that a school resource officer could eliminate the need for most of those calls, saving time and money.

St. Vincent switching to all private patient rooms

According to Santa Fe Police Department records, police responded to close to 11,000 calls, including traffic accidents, from all the district’s schools from 2010 through October 2014. Over that period, Santa Fe High School placed the most calls — 1,486 — followed by Capital, with 1,165 calls. The day after the council meeting, City Manager Brian Snyder sent out an email stating that Superintendent Joel Boyd had withdrawn

the proposal. But Boyd and Carrillo said that was not true. City documents obtained through a public records request show the city and the district put together a memorandum of understanding before the council’s Oct. 29 meeting laying out details of how the plan would work and the responsibilities of each entity.

hristus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center announced a $40 million construction and renovation project Thursday that it hopes will mean better care with private patient rooms. The hospital said it would renovate its existing double patient rooms into private quarters, and that it plans to build a new wing housing 36 additional rooms.

The project should be completed by 2018 and allow for all patients to be treated in 280-square-foot private rooms. “Our community deserves private rooms,” said Bruce Tassin, the hospital’s president and CEO. The hospital currently has 268 licensed beds in a mixture of private and shared rooms. The number of beds won’t change with the project, but all the single rooms will be larger. Hospital staff also said Thursday that private rooms reduce the potential for infection and

Lawsuit: State prisoners used as lab rats Former inmate seeks permission to search Old Main for evidence of torture, organ sales By Phaedra Haywood The New Mexican

A former inmate of the state Department of Corrections’ “Old Main” prison south of Santa Fe — the site of the 1980 prison riot — has asked a district judge to allow him to dig in and around the old pen to search for proof of his claim that the state experimented on and tortured prison-

ers, and even sold their organs and blood. The plaintiff in the case is Samuel P. Chavez, who was sentenced to 47 years in prison and served 23 — some of them in Old Main — on a second-degree murder conviction for shooting to death his friend Roy Mintz in 1988. In a motion filed in First District Court on Oct. 23, Chavez asks for permission to search the premises of the prison for evidence in a case he filed in 2007, alleging his civil rights were violated by the treatment he received as a prisoner — treatment he claims led to his loss of vision. “Plaintiff will need to physi-

cally dig into loose soil surfaces under one of the PNM [Penitentiary of New Mexico] buildings at various locations in order to obtain documentation buried by the plaintiff showing evidence of medical experimentation and torture,” according to the motion. The motion says Chavez worked as a safety and sanitation clerk, a maintenance assistant and a meat cutter while incarcerated at Old Main and that while he was there, he buried air-tight containers filled with documents and substances that were added to prisoners’ food. “The documentation consists of memoranda, handwritten

directives and makeshift ledgers showing revenues from sales of prisoners’ body organs and blood,” according to the motion, which asks for permission to inspect the basement, boiler rooms, crawl spaces, cell blocks, medical wings, holding cells and other areas around the facility. Attorneys for both sides in the case could not be reached for comment Thursday. Contact information for Chavez, reportedly from Mesilla, could not be located Thursday. But a spokeswoman for the Corrections Department denied

A former Santa Fe County sheriff’s deputy accused of shooting and killing a fellow deputy at a Las Cruces hotel following a heated argument was indicted Thursday on a first-degree murder charge by a Doña Ana County grand jury. District Attorney Mark D’Antonio said Tai Chan, 27, could face up to 30 years in prison if convicted on a charge that he shot and killed his colleague, Deputy Jeremy Martin, 29, on Oct. 28. Authorities have said the deputies were drinking at a Las Cruces pub while they were off-duty Oct. 27. A Tai Chan witness told police that Chan got aggressive toward Martin, and that a bartender had to separate the two, according to a criminal complaint. After the deputies took a cab back to their room at Hotel Encanto, police say, Chan shot Martin multiple times as Martin fled toward an elevator from the seventh-floor room they had been sharing. Jeremy Police have not said what the argument was about. At the request Martin of Chan’s lawyer, his family has declined to discuss the details of what the deputies might have been arguing about. Witnesses told police they found Martin in the hotel’s second-floor lobby, bleeding profusely. Martin was pronounced dead at MountainView Regional Medical Center. The deputies were on their way back to Santa Fe after transporting an inmate to Safford, Ariz., and decided to spend the night in Las Cruces. Chan, who is no longer employed as a deputy, is being held in the Doña Ana County jail without bond. At Chan’s first court appearance, he pleaded not guilty to an open count of murder. Day said his client will be arraigned soon, but no date has been set. Day also said his legal team is conducting its own investigation, and “we have nothing to add at this point.” Day has questioned the Las Cruces police investigation, saying authorities released inaccurate information from witnesses’ statements. But Day has not elaborated on that. “There’s still a lot of investigation that still has to be done,” Day said.

Slain deputy’s family may be allowed to stay at county site Santa Fe County commissioners are expected to vote to let the family of slain Santa Fe County Deputy Jeremy Martin continue living on county-owned property in a residential area off N.M. 14 south of Santa Fe. The Martin family has lived in a manufactured home on the property rent-free under a program in which county law-enforcement officers provide a security presence. Kristine Mihelcic, a county spokeswoman, said Martin’s wife’s name will be put on the lease, and she will be in charge of the property until 2018, when the lease ends. She said commissioners plan to take a vote on the matter in late November or early December. Authorities in Las Cruces say Martin was shot and killed by fellow deputy Tai Chan at a hotel Oct. 28 after a “heated argument” that started at a bar. The off-duty incident occurred as the two were returning from delivering a prisoner to Arizona.

Texas’ Perry in court for heated pretrial hearing Defense says counts of abuse, coercion should be quashed By Will Weissert

The Associated Press

AUSTIN, Texas — Texas Gov. Rick Perry made his first court appearance Thursday but left the dramatics to his attorneys, who argued strenuously that the felony charges against him should be thrown out on technicalities. His high-powered defense team said the counts of abuse of official power and coercion of a public servant ought to be quashed since the special prosecutor bringing them was never properly sworn in and some paperwork wasn’t correctly filed. Attorneys for the Republican governor and possible 2016 presidential hopeful sniped so frequently with the special prosecutor leading the case, Michael McCrum, that the proceedings often felt like a television drama — complete with a courtroom packed with reporters and carried live on the Internet. “This whole proceeding, the whole way this came about, is a comedy of errors,” said Tony Buzbee, Perry’s lead defense attorney, who sometimes glared at McCrum as he paced the room. McCrum said he followed procedure correctly, countering: “Mr. Perry, through his attorneys, can’t create or invent Texas law that’s not there.” The presiding judge, San Antonio-based Republican Bert Richardson, said he planned to rule next week on whether the case can continue. Perry, the longest-serving governor in Texas history, is leaving office in January. He was indicted in August by a grand jury in Travis County, which includes Austin, a liberal enclave in otherwise fiercely conservative Texas. He is accused of publicly threatening — then making good on — a veto of $7.5 million in state funding last year for a public corruption division within the office of Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg. That came after Lehmberg, a Democrat, refused to resign following a conviction and jail time for drunken driving. Lehmberg has since recused herself from the Perry case. Perry calls the indictment a “political witch hunt” and told reporters outside the courtroom, “I stand behind my veto and I would make that veto again.” He’s eying another presiden-

tial run after his short-lived 2012 bid and, asked if this could mar that or his final months in office, Perry said, “I don’t Rick have any quesPerry tion about being able to multitask and to get things done.” The governor quietly conferred with his lawyers at points during Thursday’s proceedings, but mostly just watched while occasionally glancing down at the table in front of him and sipping water. He was allowed to skip other pretrial hearings, but Richardson ordered him to appear this time. It also was Perry’s 32nd wedding anniversary, and though he tweeted a wedding photo, his wife Anita wasn’t in court. While making his arguments, Buzbee used slides, including a picture of and quotes form the Constitution. “Dismiss this case immediately so Governor Perry can get on about his business,” Buzbee said. The defense has also sought to have the case tossed out on the grounds that Perry was within his constitutional rights as governor — but that motion has yet to be discussed in court. McCrum, who called the governor only “Mr. Perry” since he said he was no different than any other defendant, called two witnesses. They were both court officials who testified that legal procedures in the matter were followed as normal. Buzbee did a double-take, though, when it was divulged that court authorities created a special “cause number,” or filing classification, for the Perry case before charges were brought. He was told that was a housekeeping issue given the amount of paperwork the high-profile case was expected to generate. Still, the only other time that happened was when the Travis County public corruption unit convicted former Republican House Majority Leader Tom DeLay on campaign finance charges — which were later overturned on appeal. “Misplaced documents, special cause numbers for Republican governors in a very blue county?” Buzbee said, calling the case “a slam-dunk for dismissal.” McCrum said that was “malarkey.” “Judge, it’s amazing to me that [Buzbee] would put the court in the position that if it rules against the defendant it’s against the Constitution,” he said. “It’s an assertion clearly made with media in the room.”

LOVINGTON — The family of a 17-year-old Lovington student has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the school district after the teen fell from a moving vehicle on campus. Lawyers for the family of Peggy Saenz filed the federal lawsuit Wednesday, accusing the Lovington Municipal Schools District and administrators of neglect. They say the district failed to fix a dangerous parking lot and didn’t provide proper supervision. Saenz died in August after an accident in the school parking lot. The lawsuit said the district knew about the dangerous conditions and did nothing, even after the school board was told about the problem. Court papers also say the district didn’t have security

officers in the lot. District Superintendent Darin Manes and Lovington High School Principal Chris Brattain, both named in the lawsuit, did not respond to an email from The Associated Press. The family seeks more than $2.5 million in damages and legal fees. Following the accident, Brattain told school board members that he and other administrators tried to direct traffic in the congested parking lot at the beginning of the year. “I was told we were doing that at our own risk because if we were hit by a student that liability would fall on us and not the school,” Brattain said. Board members were looking into new proposals for new stop signs, speed bumps and parking bumpers.

Study: Amtrak route shift would cause $3M in losses in state Company says can’t afford maintenance costs, has asked for assistance from N.M. By Barry Massey

The Associated Press

New Mexico would suffer economic losses of about $3 million annually if Amtrak halted passenger service along its current route and shifted the Southwest Chief to another rail line, according to a new report issued Thursday. State Department of Trans-

portation officials outlined the state-commission study to a legislative panel considering whether New Mexico should pay part of the costs of keeping the passenger train on its route across the northeastern part of the state. The Southwest Chief travels between Chicago and Los Angeles, but part of the current route is in jeopardy because Amtrak says it can’t afford the costs of needed maintenance and upgrades of track. Amtrak has suggested that New Mexico, Colorado and Kansas share maintenance costs with it and BNSF Railway, formerly called Burlington Northern Santa Fe,

Federal judge weighs tossing Mora County oil, gas drilling ban The Associated Press

LAS VEGAS, N.M. — The first county in the United States to impose an outright ban on oil and gas development could see its controversial ordinance gutted, if not tossed altogether, as a federal judge considers the measure’s constitutionality. U.S. District Judge James Browning said during a motions hearing in Albuquerque this week that portions of Mora County’s ordinance are unconstitutional. The ordinance outlaws the extraction of oil and natural gas and puts the county’s decision-making rights ahead of business interests and federal and state permits. “Some of these provisions are pretty wild,” Browning said during the hearing. Browning has yet to decide whether to strike down the entire ordinance or invalidate certain parts, The Las Vegas Optic reported. Attorneys for an oil company seeking to toss the ordinance

argued it’s so blatantly unconstitutional that there’s no need to go to trial. The attorneys for SWEPI, a subsidiary of Shell, said the measure effectively destroyed the value of the company’s $1 million drilling leases. Mora County wants a trial so it can present evidence on why the commission adopted the ordinance, said Jeff Haas, a lawyer for the county. He argued throughout Monday’s four-hour hearing that the county’s aim has been to protect its land and water. The sparsely populated county received attention in 2013 when it became the first in the nation to ban oil and gas drilling. The law seeks to restrict the rights of corporations. Also under the ordinance, pre-emptive law — which centers on the doctrine that federal and state laws trump municipal laws when there is a conflict — would be dismissed. SWEPI attorney John Anderson said the ordinance’s attempt to subordinate federal law is unconstitutional.

which owns the track. Transportation Secretary Tom Church told lawmakers that Gov. Susana Martinez’s administration hasn’t agreed on a proposal for helping to finance the Amtrak route. Church said he preferred that New Mexico seek a federal grant, which occurred recently in Kansas. The study estimated it would cost about $9 million annually to maintain the New Mexico portions of the line. Amtrak has projected the costs at about $7 million a year in New Mexico, with an additional $4 million for one-time upgrades to the line.

to support the plan in early October. A separate document shows how officers would handle some specific events on campus. For instance, if a student was disrespectful to an officer, the officer could not take action, because no crime had been committed. If the student was disrespectful to a teacher, the officer could do nothing beyond discouraging such behavior. If two students were fighting or threatening to fight, the officer could detain the students and escort them to the principal’s office for discipline. An officer could, however, arrest a student for possession of narcotics with probable cause. Garcia recently told The New Mexican that the plan was off the table, but that he was going to continue to work on it. “We’re evaluating everything from the initial program to where we’re at today,” he said.

Santa Fe shooting case handed to Roswell DA Ex-jail captain pleads guilty in sex case District Attorney Angela “Spence”

Pacheco has handed over a Santa Fe officer-involved shooting case to District Attorney Janetta Hicks of Roswell. A spokeswoman for Hicks said the 5th Judicial District prosecutor earlier this week agreed to review the case but has not received the case file, which includes dashboard camera footage and testimony from the officers involved. Santa Fe County grand jurors last month found that the 2013 Santa Fe police shooting of a 26-year-old man was not justified. Authorities have said that officers John DeBaca and Stephen Fonte shot Roberto Mendez in the cheek after he fled

Some studies show that the number of arrests goes up initially when officers are stationed on campus, but the arrests then level out and decrease over time. “In my opinion, what we have to do is we have to take a look what we’ve already invested in it. Are we going to shred it? Absolutely not. We’ll archive it and have it ready to go if it comes to fruition again. That way when we do … have the opportunity again to reopen it, we’ll be ahead of the game,” he said. City spokesman Matt Ross said Thursday, “We’re obviously tapping the breaks and everything is paused, but it’s not necessarily the death knell for the program.” Carrillo said perhaps the city and the board can revisit the idea down the line, but he said the district can find better uses for the $70,000 it had

The state of Kansas, Amtrak and BNSF as well as local communities pledged matching funds to get the grant.

Ray Lang, Amtrak’s state government relations chief, told lawmakers that New Mexico is at risk of losing rail service if no agreement can be reached on paying for the rail improvements needed for the Southwest Chief. “If this falls apart, we’d do some serious soulsearching about what we’re going to do,” Lang said after the legislative hearing. Lang said Amtrak didn’t have money in its budget for necessary upgrades to switch the Southwest Chief to another BNSF line that goes through Kansas and Oklahoma to Amarillo, Texas, and then through Central New Mexico, passing

ALBUQUERQUE — A former corrections supervisor at a New Mexico jail has pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting three female inmates. Prosecutors say 70-year-old John Greene also pleaded guilty Thursday to making material false statements to the FBI about two of the assaults at the Gallup-McKinley Adult Detention Center. Court documents show Greene had inmate access when he accompanied them to court hearings and transported them to other facilities, and he had them brought to his office. Prosecutors say that gave Greene the

The study projected that fewer out-of-state visitors would come to New Mexico if the Southwest Chief is shifted to the other route across the state. That would cause annual economic losses of about $3.3 million, which would grow to $3.7 million by 2023, according to the study. The economic impact includes lower spending by visitors and lost wages and taxes. About 56 jobs would be lost, including railroad workers and employees at businesses relying on spending by train passengers.

opportunity to engage in unwanted sexual contact with three different women in December 2008 and January 2009. Under terms of a plea agreement, Greene will be sentenced to five years of probation, and he must register as a sex offender and forfeit his law enforcement certification. A sentencing hearing has yet to be set.

Deming doctor pleads guilty to drug charge DEMING — A Deming doctor has pleaded guilty to a federal misdemeanor charge for ordering an unapproved chemotherapy drug from a Canadian supplier and providing it to patients. Dr. Mohamed Basel Aswad pleaded guilty Tuesday in federal court to a charge of unlawful introduction of misbranded drugs into interstate commerce. The Deming Headlight reported that a plea agreement calls for Aswad to be sentenced to three years of probation and to pay $1.3 million of restitution. He’ll also be required to forfeit $750,000. Aswad said his actions were unintentional. According to court filings, Aswad is a board-certified oncologist who has maintained a medical practice in Deming since 2007, where he treats cancer patients.

Albuquerque schools release info on Brooks ALBUQUERQUE — New information shows an attorney was hired to look into accusations of intimidation and retaliation involving former Albuquerque Public Schools Superintendent Winston Brooks before he resigned. The Albuquerque Journal reported that the district Wednesday released a new document on the mysterious departure of Brooks after a public records request from the New Mexico Foundation for Open Government. The document, a prepared statement that board President Analee Maestas read to board members over the phone in July, revealed plans to hire attorney Agnes Padilla to investigate the allegations. Brooks resigned Aug. 15 after the board agreed to buy out the last two years of his contract for $350,000. Both sides declined to elaborate on his resignation. Staff and wire reports

Because we were so worried about having another riot, we just locked people down,” she said. “We way too often segregated people that did not need to be segregated and kept them there longer than they needed to be.” Tomlin said that practice has been discontinued and replaced with a system that calls for inmates’ security status to be automatically reviewed every six months and allows inmates to work toward lower security ratings. Attorney Mark Donatelli — who represented the plaintiffs in the class-action suit that led to the Duran Decree and later was appointed to work with prison representatives during the implementation and monitoring of the decree — said he had never heard any stories from inmates about blood or organ sales or the food being poisoned. He did hear stories about missing bodies, he said, but no family members ever came looking for any missing people. But Donatelli said he did work with Chavez during that time, and he found him to be “reliable and credible.”

Lady Hilltoppers fall to Lady Chargers By James Barron The New Mexican

ALBUQUERQUE — It’s a streak, but it’s not the reason the Los Alamos Lady Hilltoppers said goodbye to the 2014 girls soccer season and Catie McDonald on Thursday. Los Alamos has yet to solve the Rubik’s Cube that is the Albuquerque Academy Lady Chargers, who beat their longtime rivals for the sixth straight postseason matchup with a 1-0 win in a defensive struggle in the Class AAAAA quarterfinals at the APS Soccer Complex. The Lady Chargers defeated Los Alamos every year in the playoffs from 2007 to ’11, including three straight matchups in the finals, before picking up where they left off this fall. Not that it matters to first-year Los Alamos head coach A.J. Herrera, who indicated most of his current

players hadn’t faced Academy in the postseason. “These girls hadn’t played in the quarterfinals, so they’re not used to playing in the state tournament against Academy,” Herrera said. “So I don’t think that matters at all.” What does matter, though, is the concept of beating Academy (11-92), because it has been one of the top programs in the state, even if it entered this matchup with a 6-seed attached to its name. Los Alamos, the third seed, did that when the teams played in Academy’s regular season tournament on Sept. 13, but the Lady Chargers got its measure of revenge three days later at home. “Academy has always been a huge rival of ours,” said McDonald, the Lady Hilltoppers’ leading scorer. “They’ve definitely pushed us to our limits. To be able to beat them [3-2] in the Academy Tournament was

The team that has been the AFC North’s bottom dweller for years climbed back into the top spot Thursday night. The Browns were all over Andy Dalton all night long, turning a first-place showdown into a shockingly one-sided 24-3 victory. With every interception and every sack, the Browns showed they’re for real. “This is a little different Browns team than the rest of the league is used to seeing,” said Haden, who shadowed A.J. Green all over the field and shut him down again. Cleveland (6-3) improved on its best start in 20 years and moved into a first-place tie with Pittsburgh. The Browns also snapped their streak of 17 straight losses to division opponents on the road.

ALBUQUERQUE lot is expected out of the Santa Fe Prep boys soccer team this postseason, and those expectations got them off to a shaky start on the biggest stage.

red card for the Bears helped Prep get a 2-0 win to advance to the semifinals. They will face No. 3 Albuquerque Bosque School at 3:30 p.m. Friday. The Blue Griffins beat the Bobcats 2-1 on Oct. 18 to help them solidify the 2-seed. Prep was supposed to make it to at least the semifinals, given the season that the Blue Griffins had. Those expectations weighed them down, and they kept the match tied 0-0 at halftime. “We’ve been looking forward to this all year, so

now that it’s here, I think we were all a little nervous,” senior defender Keenan Amer said. “We all talked and we all said to calm down, and it ended up working out.” Prep (17-3-1) also had an extra week to think of all these expectations, as it sat out the first round of the tournament with a bye. The Blue Griffins had not played a match since Oct. 23, so the nervousness was compounded by a break in the action. “We were nervous, and it showed in our play, so I’m glad to have this match done and under our belts,” Prep head coach Hersch Wilson said. “That’s kind of typical of a first-round state match.

ALBUQUERQUE — Jesus Garcia was doing a little daydreaming in the middle of the most important match — to this point — of his senior season. The third-seeded Capital Jaguars were tied 2-2 with No. 6 Chaparral in the quarterfinals of the Class AAAAA State Boys Soccer Tournament at the APS Soccer Complex on Thursday morning, and the winner would be decided by a shootout. Capital head coach Eugene Doyle had a message for his team before the shootout, and the message rang with Garica. The forward already

scored Capital’s two goals, but as he was the fifth and final Jaguar to take a shot, the match could rest on his shoulders. After Capital goalkeeper Rene Arroyo blocked a shot by Chaparral’s Armando Mijares, Garcia got his shot past Lobos goalkeeper Adrian Ramos to win the shootout 5-3 and advance to the semifinals on a 3-2 win. The Jaguars will face No. 7 Centennial,

who knocked off defending champion and second-seeded Roswell 3-2, at 10:30 a.m. on Friday. Garcia pictured himself taking the winning shot, and he made it happen to send Capital (18-2-1) to the semifinals for the third straight year. “Coach told us that we had to imagine ourselves winning, and that’s what I did,” Garcia said. “I imagined myself taking the winning shot, and it happened.” But Garcia wouldn’t have been in that position if it wasn’t for Arroyo’s block. Arroyo got his hand on Mijares’ shot to send it over the post and give Capital a 1-0 penalty kick advantage.

“It was so important to give us that chance to win, because if your goalie can block one or two shots, it should hopefully seal the shootout,” Doyle said. While Capital narrowly got past the lower seeded Lobos, the Jaguars had a huge advantage in the second half. Garcia put the Jaguars up 1-0 with a goal in the 24th minute, and the score held until halftime. He followed that up with another goal in the 54th minute for a 2-0 lead. Once that happened, the Lobos stepped up the effort. “That woke them up, and that’s

NEW YORK — A hearing for Ray Rice appealing his NFL suspension concluded Thursday after two days and testimony from the former running back and the head of the league. Rice and his wife Janay Rice left the hearing separately on Thursday about three hours apart after each testified at the New York office of a neutral arbiter. The arbitration hearing will determine whether the NFL overstepped its authority in modifying a two-game suspension of Rice, making it indefinite after video of the running back hitting his wife was released by TMZ. “I can trust it’s a fair process,” said Rice’s attorney, Peter Ginsberg. Two people familiar with the case said Thursday there’s no timetable for the former federal judge presiding over the case to make her decision, though one person said she has asked the sides to submit closing briefs next week. Both spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the arbiter has told the sides not to discuss details of the private hearing. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell testified for more than two hours to start Rice’s appeal hearing on Wednesday, according to one of the sources. Ray and Janay Rice attended

huge. They beat us 2-to-1 on their home turf three days later, so it happens. But it fueled the fire a little bit for me.” The Lady Chargers were fueled by McDonald’s performance in Los Alamos’ win. She had a goal and two assists in the win, and added another goal in the rematch. Those two matches plus scouting from two other matches helped Academy head coach Cole Borgeson prepare its game plan for McDonald and her 33 goals plus 22 assists. The plan was simple: The Lady Chargers essentially threw a zone at McDonald, with two defenders keeping tabs on the forward at all times. McDonald had very little space to work in, and never got off a clean shot or a strong enough pass to set up her teammates for scoring opportunities. “[Thursday], they just tried to go to her all the time,” Borgeson said. “I’m proud of the way

we defended. We did that very well and capitalized on our opportunities.” Make that opportunity. It came in the 33rd minute when Annie Spahn stole an errant Los Alamos pass near midfield and swooped into the penalty box. As Herrera implored his girls with “no shot,” Spahn got one off that deflected off of defender Jaci Linn and bounced toward Academy midfielder Anika Gorham, who fired from 10 yards out past the outstretched arms of Lady Hilltoppers goalkeeper Anna Lemke for the lone score of the night. “Academy was just fortunate to get a goal, and I think that was the difference,” Herrera said. “I felt like it was pretty back and forth. I didn’t think they dominated play. There were times they dominated play, and there were times we dominated play.” Unfortunately, Los Alamos (14-7) never could get a good scoring chance. Academy did its part by slowing down action by taking time

on throw-ins and substitutions. Yet, even when the Lady Hilltoppers had chances, they were never clean ones. McDonald, who will leave Los Alamos for the Washington, D.C., area, had a shot from about 30 yards blocked by Skylar Carson in the 79th minute, and her cross off a direct kick in extra time was snared, bobbled, then smothered by Lady Chargers ’keeper Mikey Montoya. “They knew how to shut us down and they did,” McDonald said. “It was one of those things I have to deal with. It’s good for me to deal with that. At the next level [college soccer], I’m not going to have the space or the time. It definitely sucks and it’s frustrating to a point, but you have to keep going because you can’t do anything else.” It was not the swan song McDonald wanted, but it was the kind of finish Academy is accustomed to when a season is on the line against Los Alamos.

Class a-aaaa state Boys soCCer tournament

Dragons go down fighting, lose to Sandia

By tristen Critchfield

For the New Mexican

ALBUQUERQUE — If the top-seeded Albuquerque Sandia Prep Sundevils expected a walk in the sandia Prep 3 park heading into m. del sol 2 their Class A-AAAA boys soccer quarterfinal showdown with No. 8 Monte del Sol on Thursday, they were sadly mistaken. While Sandia Prep (15-4-2) emerged with a hard-fought 3-2 triumph at the Albuquerque Soccer Complex, the Dragons (10-7-2) likely earned a measure of respect in defeat. When the Sundevils jumped out to an early 1-0 lead on a Grayson Reeves goal in the fourth minute, it appeared that the match might get out of hand in a hurry. Monte del Sol, which lost to Sandia Prep 3-0 in last year’s semifinals, had other ideas. Senior Skye Dascher scored to tie it at 1-1 in the 15th minute, and the Dragons hung tough the rest of the way. According to Dascher, Sandia Prep striking first had little effect on his team’s morale — and it showed in their performance. Ryan Hunter scored in the 32nd minute to put the Sundevils back in the lead, but the Dragons responded late in the initial stanza when Estevan

Quintero put in a header to knot it up at 2. That was the way the first half ended. “We weren’t surprised if they were gonna score first or even early on,” Dascher said. “The second goal that we [made to tie it] just gave us more momentum.” Physical, chippy play defined the second half, and that favored Sandia Prep, which sent Monte del Sol players tumbling to the turf on a number of occasions. It got to the point where Dragons coach Mazatl Galindo earned a yellow card when he requested a sideline conference to discuss what he perceived to be rough-

house tactics by the Sundevils. “The referee asked me, ‘If there is anything, just call me to the side and then I can talk.’ The time I called him to the side to talk with him, he gives me a yellow card,” a frustrated Galindo explained afterward. At one point in the second half, Quintero fell to the ground in agony with an apparent knee or leg injury following a collision and had to be helped off the field. While he would return, Galindo says that was indicative of the way things went for the Dragons. “I never really talk bad about the refereeing but that was a factor. If you see my kids

— [cleat marks] everywhere — it’s just ridiculous,” he said. “That’s one of the reasons why I don’t want to continue to do this because these guys don’t take care of our kids.” Still, the Dragons never let the match get out of hand. However, Sandia Prep eventually found an opening for the decisive score, as Santiago Torres headed in a goal off a corner kick to put the Sundevils ahead 3-2 in the 57th minute. While Monte Del Sol had its chances to answer, it was unable to replicate its first-half magic. “Going into the second half, I feel like we just came out a little flat footed,” Dascher said. “They caught us off guard.” Despite his issues with the officiating, Galindo can take pride in his team’s performance. The Dragons may not have the resources or the pedigree of a Sandia Prep, but they proved to be a tough out regardless. “I think over the years, [with] the consistency that we’re showing, they know they cannot just take a tiny school like us for a ride,” Galindo said. “It seemed like it was gonna be like that in the first few minutes, but we know what we can do, and we showed them we can play soccer. That’s the most important thing.”

Prep: Penalty shot proves decisive in win Continued from Page B-6 We had the bye, and that always screws us up a little bit, so we were a little rusty and really nervous.” A young Hatch team also came to play. The Bears dismantled St. Michael’s 6-2 in the first round on Halloween, and they made this match too close for comfort for the Blue Griffins. “Of course, we want to score as many goals as we can, but they came out and wanted to win just as bad as us,” Amer said. “They showed that they were here to compete in the first half.” The Blue Griffins quieted the Bears when Amer scored in the 49th minute for his third goal of the season. As a defender, Amer rarely gets the chance to score, so this one was all too sweet. “I knew we had to score, and it was just awesome to get that goal,” Amer said. That score also settled down the rest of the Blue Griffins, who were able to control possession the rest of the match and cause to Bears to play with a deficit. “They had some good chances in the first half, but in the second half, I think we controlled the whole play,” Amer said. “We were passing really well and we were getting chances on goal.” Hatch also got three yellow cards after Amer’s goal, and captain Christian Ramirez was

ejected after receiving a red card in the 79th minute. Prep’s Ben Perillo took the ensuing penalty shot to widen the score to 2-0. “We lost our concentration, and that’s been what has killed us all season,” Hatch head coach Omar Hernandez said. Prep is now more focused not that it got the jitters out, and the nerves are finally out after having won a tournament match. “Now we realize that we have to go out and take it like any other match, and our play will do the talking,” Amer said. And since they have a win over Bosque on the record, the Blue Griffins should not be nervous on Friday. “We’ve already beat Bosque once, we know we can play with them,” Wilson said. “It’s going to be a fun and tough match.” No. 3 AlBuquerque Bosque school 1, No. 6 TAos 0 It took 72 minutes for someone to finally score in this hardfought quarterfinals match. Bosque’s Kyle Gay scored with an assist from Dylan Chant to give the Bobcats a shot at the semifinals. It was also a reward for Bosque outshooting the Tigers 12-7 on the night. The Bobcats face Santa Fe Prep to avenge a 2-1 loss at Sun Mountain Field on Oct. 18. “I think we played well in Santa Fe,” Bosque head coach Klaus Weber said. “We’re probably pretty equal. My boys are looking forward to it.”

St. Mike’s, Robertson to meet in semifinals By Chris Jackson

For The New Mexican

ALBUQUERQUE — St. Michael’s and Las Vegas Robertson set up an all-Northern New st. michael’s 2 Mexico taos 0 semifinal at the Class A-AAAA State Girls Soccer Tournament on Thursday afternoon. The Lady Horsemen and Lady Cardinals meet at 11:30 a.m. Friday to decide half of Saturday’s championship match. Top-seeded Albuquerque Hope Christian and No. 5 Sandia Prep will meet in the other semifinal. Two set pieces resulted in the only two goals of the game for the Lady Horsemen (18-3). The goals were welcome after a scoreless first half. “We just couldn’t connect,” St. Michael’s coach Robyn Serge said. “It’s the first-game

jitters, the field and how quick it is. We [needed] a couple minutes to adjust to it. Just putting our two set pieces in really helped us out. So I was happy that our set pieces worked and we finished on those. We were a little comfortable, but we still needed more.” In the 46th minute, senior Adriana Camarena’s corner kick landed at the feet of sophomore Maggie Cain, who curled a shot into the upper left corner of the net. “She took a touch and put it on and put it in,” Serge said. “She scored twice like that this year. We’re always looking for her to put them on target and she did.” Sophomore Nique Enloe picked up an insurance goal as she blasted a free kick into the net from 25 yards out in the 74th minute. “I said you know what, let’s take a chance and put it on frame,” Serge said. “I put Nique Enloe up and she

just put it on, right over the goalkeeper’s head.” There was nothing the Tigers (13-6-1) could do offensively to respond, particularly after losing freshman midfielder Isabella Padilla when she collided with a St. Michael’s player and had to leave the game as a precaution. “Once we lost our midfielder, we’re not very deep [so] it changed a lot of stuff for us,” Taos head coach Casey Tonrey said. For the Horsemen, another slow start could be crippling against a more attack-oriented Robertson squad in Friday’s semifinal. “I expect physical, I expect fast and I expect our girls to get hit,” Serge said. “That’s the way they play. If we can shut down their two leading scorers we’ll be fine.” No. 3 roBerTsoN 2, No. 6 socorro 0 The Cardinals (18-3) made

two first-half goals stand to hold off the Lady Warriors (165). “You always come in with nerves, [but] I think our girls played hard,” said Robertson coach Ian Williamson. “We definitely had more possession in the [first] half. … I felt like we were pretty much in control of the match.” Senior Amber Yara opened the scoring in the 12th minute, followed by senior Caitlin Diefendorf’s goal in the 37th minute. “Caitlin got wide on the wing a few times and one of them landed at Amber’s feet and she put it away beautifully,” Williamson said. “And then another time we went right down the middle and Caitlin was set up. She turned and blasted a shot that went right under the [cross] bar.” Junior Nicky Litherland had nine saves in goal for Robertson, though Socorro was never able to put together a sustained attacking possession.

capital: Late surge to overcome tie Continued from Page B-6 when they started attacking us,” Garcia said. “I was feeling their pressure in the second half.” Hector Ramirez scored to put Chaparral on the board in the 65th minute. That was followed by a 25-yard laser from captain Josue Martinez Meza in the 72nd minute that knotted the score. “I guess we might have relaxed a little up 2-0, but they’re a very quality team, so it’s a good step in the right direction for us to get past them the way we did,” Doyle said. “I think it’s a good wake-up call as well. We didn’t really play our best game [Thursday], but we were able to get the result we wanted.” The late surge was simple, according to Chaparral head coach Fernando Mendoza. The players realized that this could be their last match, and that led them to start playing with something extra. “They showed a lot of heart and played for each other,” Mendoza said. “They knew they could come and play with these guys.” Garcia’s shot was for his team as well. Once he got done dreaming, he kept Capital’s hopes of a state title a reality. “That game-winner was for all of us, and a lot was going through my mind,” Garcia said.

LeBron, Cleveland off to rough 1-3 start By Tom Withers

The Associated Press

LeBron James looked over his shoulder, almost in disbelief. This isn’t what he — or anyone else — imagined for the Cavaliers. As Utah’s Gordon Hayward was mobbed by teammates after hitting a fadeaway shot over the outstretched arm of Cavaliers forward Tristan Thompson at the buzzer to beat Cleveland 102-100 on Wednesday night, James peered back incredulously at the celebration one last time. He shook his head and walked to the locker room after a second stunning loss in 24 hours. The Cavs: James, fellow AllStars Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love, picked by Vegas oddsmakers to win it all, are 1-3 and look nothing like championship contenders. Four games into the season, they are not gelling and something of a mess. “Rome wasn’t built in a day,” James said. Neither are NBA title teams. Just a week into the season, the Cavaliers have major chemistry issues, a motionless offense and defensive holes they might not be able to address without making a trade or two. Rookie coach David Blatt has preached patience, but has already toyed with his starting lineup, replacing guard Dion Waiters with veteran Shawn Marion. One day after James played passively in a loss at Portland to prove a point to his young teammates, Cleveland tied a franchise record with just six assists against Utah. According to STATS LLC, the six assists are the fewest in a game for any NBA team scoring at least 100 points since 1985-86. “There’s no way you can win a basketball game like that, just having six assists,” said James, who had four of the six assists. “We just can’t win like that. We have to figure out a way to help each other and not make it so tough.” And while some Cleveland fans are troubled by the slow

start, James seems to be taking it in stride, posting a message on his Twitter page Thursday. James wrote: “In the words of the great AaronRodgers12 ‘RELAX.’ ” Irving scored 34 points against the Jazz, but Cleveland’s starting point guard did not record an assist in 45 minutes — an alarming statistic for a player supposedly running his team’s offense. Irving’s performance came after James, without naming names, pointed toward some teammates playing selfishly in the 19-point loss to the Trail Blazers. “There’s a lot of bad habits, a lot of bad habits been built up the past couple years,” James said. Irving did speak with reporters following the loss in Portland, which included another statistical anomaly: James did not score in the second half. James is conflicted. He’s trying to decide whether to carry the Cavs or let them learn tough lessons through losses. The easy solution would be for the four-time MVP to take over games the way he used to, but James has a long-term vision for the Cavs. He’s willing to accept failure as long as it stimulates growth.

“I still got to figure out ways to get my teammates involved, too,” James said after scoring 31 points, including Cleveland’s final six, in the loss to the Jazz. “‘Cause it just can’t be a one-, two- or three-man show. We have to do it together.” He’s been through this before. When James joined Miami in 2010, the Heat ended up in the finals but started 9-8. James was subjected to the same scrutiny he’s enduring now except he said there was “anger behind the questions.” This time around, the inquiries are less emotional but equally direct: What’s going on? For starters, James is still learning how to play with his new teammates and vice versa. There have been some sloppy moments as James, Love and Irving mesh after not being on the court together much in the preseason. The timing will come, but it’s going to take time. The Cavs, who play at Denver on Friday, have been atrocious defensively. They’re giving up wide-open shots and their interior rotations were too slow against the Jazz, who scored 46 points in the paint and outrebounded the Cavs 41-30.

“We’re going to get every team’s best shot and we’ve got to understand we’ve got to play defense,” Marion said. “We’ve got to guard somebody. It’s easy to get points, but if you don’t play defense you’re not going to give yourself a chance.” Blatt’s offense, based on the precise cutting and screening principles he learned while playing guard at Princeton, isn’t working. The Cavs are standing and watching each other. They’re not moving the ball in search of a better shot. There have been flashes, not nearly enough. Back when he announced his return to Cleveland, James cautioned the Cavs would face challenges. In his Sports Illustrated essay, James forecast failing would be part of the path to a title. “I’m not promising a championship,” he said in July. “I know how hard that is to deliver. We’re not ready right now. No way. Of course, I want to win next year, but I’m realistic. It will be a long process, much longer than it was in 2010. My patience will get tested.” Perhaps sooner than he thought.

Vonn’s knee on mend; Miller’s back still aching By Pat Graham

The Associated Press

COPPER MOUNTAIN, Colo. — Her right knee finally free of pain, Lindsey Vonn is actually considering moving up her return to racing. In pain because of a bulging disk in his back, Bode Miller is simply trying to ski through it. Two different tales to start the season for two of the biggest names in U.S. skiing. Miller missed the season opener in Soelden, Austria, last month because of his balky back, which he said has been bothering him since tumbling at the World Cup Finals last season. Vonn hasn’t raced in nearly a year due to a torn ACL that’s required two surgeries and sidelined her for the Sochi Olympics. “I feel really good,” Vonn told The Assovhciated Press on Thursday after a training session at Copper Mountain. “I was expecting to have some bumps along the way. But I haven’t had any problems, no setbacks. It hasn’t gotten swollen. Haven’t even felt it, no pain. I’m pretty excited where things are at.” For months, the four-time overall World Cup champion planned her return around the races in Lake Louise, Alberta, during the first week of December. After some solid training days, Vonn is actually considering coming back for the events in Aspen, Colo., over Thanksgiving weekend. Nothing’s set in stone, she’s just pondering the option. “You know me, I never rule anything out until the last minute,” said Vonn, who turned 30 last month. “At the same time, I need to also be more reserved than I was last year. I think Lake Louise is the perfect place for me to start. That’s still the plan. “But you never know. Things could change if I start skiing incredibly fast. I can’t rule it completely out.” Vonn will be chasing history this season. She’s three wins from matching the World Cup record of 62 race victories by skiing great Annemarie Moser-Proell of Austria. Of her 59 career World Cup race

HOUSTON — Heading into a game with the San Antonio Spurs, Houston Rockets Rockets 98 coach Kevin Spurs 81 McHale had his eye on a few matchups. A specific one that caught his eye was getting Dwight Howard in the post. The plan worked. With San Antonio missing big bodies Tim Duncan, who was rested along with fellow veteran Manu Ginobili, and Tiago Splitter (right calf tightness), Howard dominated the interior from the opening tip, scoring 32 points and grabbing 16 rebounds in leading Houston to a 98-81 victory. “We looked at some stuff [on tape] and we got him in the post,” McHale said. “I thought [Howard] rolled hard and got some late at the rim. He was really devastating on those high passes. It’s important that he gets in a rhythm and plays. It doesn’t matter who is out there playing for them, he’s got to play well for us.” The win runs Houston’s record to a league best 6-0 while dropping San Antonio’s mark to 2-2. With no Duncan or Splitter inside, Houston had a decided advantage down low and exploited it from the beginning, feeding Howard at every turn. Whether on the pick-and-roll, at the elbow, or on alley-oop passes, Howard was the target and had a double-double — 20 points and 12 rebounds — by halftime as he exploited a vulnerable Spurs interior defense where Matt Bonner, Jeff Ayers, and Aron Baynes struggled to keep up. “We are a sum-of-the-parts team,” Popovich said. “We have to have all our parts to be at our best. We can’t rely on one player. We have to do it as a group. If we have injuries, we need our full bench to continue to play at our best.” When Howard was not scoring inside, James Harden filled the stat sheet, adding 20 points, six rebounds and six assists for the Rockets.

victories, 14 have come at Lake Louise in the Canadian Rockies. On a sunny morning, Vonn squeezed in about six training runs. Nothing too aggressive, just some easy turns to test out some of her equipment. “I’d say I’m 85 percent [back],” she said. “I feel like I need a little bit more training, more repetition. Otherwise, the technique and stuff is all there. Just need to get the tactics down, get some more reps. I’ll be in good shape after a couple more training sessions.” Her next step is picking up the tempo. She’s only gone all-out a few times, and only in small sections. “I’m a little more tentative still on the more difficult terrain,” said Vonn, who will wear a knee brace this season. “That just comes with time. With more training and more confidence, I’ll be good.”

The 37-year-old Miller spent part of the morning freeskiing before getting in some runs along the giant slalom course. Afterward, he said his back was still bothering him. He expects it to possibly be that way for a while. Still, he fully plans to ski at Lake Louise in three weeks. “I’m ready,” said the two-time overall World Cup winner, who skipped Soelden to give his back even more time to rest. Miller returned last season from a year off to recover from knee surgery. He captured bronze in the super-G at the Sochi Games, the sixth Olympic medal of his career. Near the end of last season, though, Miller hurt his back in a wipeout. “I detonated that disk,” Miller said. “Now, it’s putting a lot of pressure on the nerve.”

While he had his share of points, Harden was clear after the game about the advantage of having a force inside. “It’s tough with the best big man in the league rolling down the paint,” Harden said of Howard. “He’s a lob target, and you have shooters around him. It’s tough to guard it.” As the Spurs struggled to keep Howard from gutting them in the middle, they had little consistency when they had the ball. They started the game sluggish, going scoreless in the first six minutes. While San Antonio rebounded and pulled to within 18-15 at the end of the first quarter, that was as close as the Spurs would get. The tough night finished with the defending NBA champs, who trailed by as many as 31, shooting just 34.4 percent from the field. “It was a bad night tonight and I couldn’t hit a shot,” Tony Parker, who finished with just six points, said. “Defensively, we did OK, but we never got into an offensive rhythm.” WINNING BIG Houston has won each of its first six games by 10 points or more. According to Elias sports Bureau, the Rockets are the first team to accomplish the feat since the 1985-86 denver Nuggets.

SAN FRANCISCO — The Giants are planning their offseason around efforts to re-sign Pablo Sandoval. General manager Brian Sabean and his staff have told free-agent starting pitchers Jake Peavy and Ryan Vogelsong that the World Series champions need time to try to strike a deal with Sandoval before turning their attention to the mound or any other position. The Giants made a $15.3 million qualifying offer that the switch-hitting third baseman won’t accept by Monday’s deadline. “We’ve engaged, but I’ll leave it at that,” Sabean said Thursday. “We’re three days in, so that’s the best answer I can give.” Giants CEO Larry Baer said his team’s payroll will go up after San Francisco’s third title in five years and the club will do what it can to keep Sandoval. San Francisco’s payroll was $164.7 million at the end of the regular season, the sixth-highest in the majors. The 28-year-old Sandoval batted .279 with 16 homers and 73 RBIs in 157 regularseason games and .366 in the postseason with seven doubles and five RBIs, including four during a seven-game World Series win against Kansas City. While the 2012 Series MVP has said he would like to finish his career with the Giants, he will have other suitors and

plans to listen. “We don’t have a solution in house so it would have to come from the outside,” Sabean said. “I’m not going to address anybody at this time other than Pablo; that’s who we’re engaged with. It wouldn’t be fair for the other guys.” Sabean said the futures of left fielder Michael Morse, Peavy and Vogelsong are on the backburner until third base is resolved. Both Baer and Sabean said a resolution could take a while. Even speculating at how the Giants might look at left field is tough for Sabean in this first week of free agency. “We’re exploring any place that we may have a hole,” he said. “I can’t guarantee what we’re going to do with our pending free agents to be, nor will I understand the landscape more until Pablo’s resolved. Having said that, if something jumps up, we’re prepared to react, bring it to Larry and make a quick decision.” The Giants have expressed interest in other players who could become available to fill voids on the roster. When asked whether he might consider a hometown discount, Sandoval said: “I don’t want to talk about that. It’s not my job. I’ve got an agent. He focuses on that. When he’s got a deal right, I just want to talk about it.” The Giants hope the Venezuelan star stays loyal to the franchise that signed him as an amateur free agent in 2003.

Anything less than a threeway tie and Ruidoso heads to the playoffs as the 4AAAA champion and St. Michael’s is likely relegated to a first-round home game when the state playoffs commence next week. In other words, the playoffs figuratively begin this week. They begin in reality next week.

Class AA final four happening already? In case you hadn’t noticed, the Class AA playoffs are about to begin their abbreviated process of determining a state champion. Since only four teams qualify for the postseason, it means the semifinals will begin Friday.

Meadow City matchup Saturday Contrary to some rumors floating around social media circles earlier this week, Saturday’s matchup of West Las Vegas and Robertson — the so-called Las Vegas Bowl by locals — will be played at the Frank Herrera Complex on West’s campus at noon. Some reports had the game being moved to NMHU’s Perkins Stadium at 1 p.m. West Las Vegas athletic director Richard Tripp confirmed the site and time on his Facebook account, saying tickets will be on sale at the West athletic office from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday. The top-ranked Cardinals (9-0, 2-0 in 2AAA) lead the alltime series, 31-21-3, having won nine of the last 11 and each of the last five. It stands to reason that the Dons (3-6, 1-1) will receive an at-large playoff berth with a win. Playoff pairings will be announced Saturday night.

Five plays later, Ben Tate went into the end zone from 4 yards for the lead. It never got any better for Cincinnati, which self-destructed in a tone-setting first half. The only good moments for the crowd of 65,871 came after the first quarter when 4-year-old Leah Still — daughter of defensive tackle Devon Still — was on the field for a check presentation. The girl is fighting cancer and flew in from Philadelphia to see her father play for the first time. The Bengals raised more than $1 million for cancer research and treatment through sales of Still’s No. 75 jersey. Still wrote “Leah Strong” on the eye black strip across his face, and police officers at the game had his No. 75 on the back of their uniforms.

three food-truck favorites offer a tasty, quick lunch By Elena Wirth

ne of the most important things to teens is food. As food trucks continue to populate the streets and parking lots of Santa Fe, teenagers now have access to more food options showing up at different locations that are less expensive than most restaurants. Here are three of my favorites:

Bambini’s, 905 S. St. Francis Drive After reading about the authentic Philadelphia cuisine that Bambini’s brings to their Philly cheese steaks, I thought I would give it a try even though I am generally not a cheese steak fan. I ordered the first thing on the menu, “The Original Bambini’s Cheese Steak” ($8.79), and was pleasantly surprised that maybe I did like cheese steaks more than I thought. All the ingredients were fresh. Although I have never been to Philadelphia, they seemed pretty authentic to me. The truck’s website says that the bread is flown in from Philadelphia in an effort to achieve a cheese steak that is authentic. It isn’t just the experience of the food at Bambini’s but also the spirit of the family that runs it. The dream team behind it is chef Steve Pompei, his daughter Lynsey Pompei-Storm and her husband, Chip Storm, who said they always wanted to bring Philly cuisine to New Mexico. The food, the people and the fact that it is all made in

Bang Bite, 502 Old Santa Fe Trail Bang Bite’s catch phrase — “Eat clean. Play dirty. Love the Bite.” — got me excited to go and check out the orange truck parked across the street from the Roundhouse near Paseo de Peralta and Old Santa Fe Trail. Although I had many healthy options, including several salads and soups, I decided to start simple with what Bang Bite calls “Just a Cheese Burger” ($7.95). The burger was well-cooked and came out rather quickly, but my favorite part was the fries, which were flavored with a special (and secret) seasoning. Bang Bite generally has a long line of customers and is a favorite for young people — when I was there I saw at least two tables with teenagers. The variety in their menu ranges from a cheeseburger to a soup and salad that changes every day to a “Little Donkey” burrito. Bang Bite is in a perfect

location for tourists, those who work downtown and teens looking for a centrally located cheap eat. It’s a must-go for hungry teens. Visit www.bangbitesf.com for a menu and more details.

El Chile Toreado, 950 W. Cordova Road El Chile Toreado specializes in Mexican food — specifically burritos and taco plates. I went for the chicken taco plate ($7.50) and a regular Coke, although they offer Mexican Coke as well (though it wasn’t advertised on the menu). The taco plate came with four tacos filled with seasoned chicken, and then you pick your own toppings. The available toppings include pico de gallo, cilantro, hot sauce and lettuce. It was fun to be able to decide what and how much I wanted on my tacos. The chicken was not the best quality and the cooks were not as welcoming as I had hoped, but the overall taco was worth the trip from my school campus. Most of the workers speak both English and Spanish, which added to the experience because I prac-

ticed some of my Spanish as well. The truck does not seem to have a website but it can be found on Facebook. Most food trucks in Santa Fe, including the ones featured in this article, operate Monday through Saturday and open just before lunch hour, usually at 11 a.m. Most close between 3 and 5 p.m. While this allows for easy lunch runs, the hours may not be ideal for teenagers striving to get off campus during lunch hour for a quick bite. Nevertheless, food trucks have a flexibility not always afforded to stationary restaurants. Mobility allows trucks to be present at various events around town while also maintaining a stable presence at a particular location. Bernadette Romero, the public records custodian for the city attorney’s office, noted that even though there are 39 food truck businesses registered in Santa Fe, up to 10 may be temporary. “A handful of them … were only temporary setups for events for specific months, so that number could be five to 10 less.” Many food trucks operate seasonally. For instance, a representative from Jarochos Taqueria on Cerrillos and Siler Road said that business is too slow during January and February, leading the food cart to temporarily close during those winter months. Other trucks, like Nile Cafe (and Catering), operate from their restaurant base, sometimes opening to serve food at events or cater private parties. Keep an eye out for food trucks — and a chance to dine on the run. Generation Next reporter Tilcara Webb contributed to this report.

Martine Perez S.F. Waldorf “I don’t eat at food trucks mainly because I don’t think to eat at them most of the time. But I would definitely like to eat at some food trucks at some point soon.”

Matthew Rand New Mexico School for the Arts “I do not. They never catch my eye on the street.”

Aram Brown Monte del Sol “I don’t usually eat at food trucks because they’re not particularly accessible to me. If the food looks good, though, and the people are not super-sketchy, then I might get something though.”

By Keifer nace generation next

The New Mexico School for the Arts’ recent production of Lillian Hellman’s The Children’s Hour, directed by Elizabeth Wiseman, tells the tragic story of two headmistresses, Karen Wright (played by Tilcara Webb) and Martha Dobie (Farleigh Carson), of an all girls’ school in 1930s New England, who are accused by a pupil of being lesbians. Desperate for attention and power, schoolgirl Mary Tilford (EJ Davis), manipulates her classmates and creates this lie in order to get what she wants. Mary reports the “unnatural” behavior of the two women to her mother, who immediately removes her from the school and encourages other parents to follow suit. The lie envelopes the entire town, and Karen and Martha’s reputations are slowly ruined. Despite laws against depicting homosexuality on stage, The Children’s Hour was first performed in New York in 1934, becoming Hellman’s first success. In 1936, Hellman worked with director William Wyler and adapted her play to make a film version called These Three. Given the censorship restriction at the time, the film’s plot had to be modified into a heterosexual love triangle. The movie, however, still held true to the themes addressing manipulations of the truth. In the early 1960s, when restrictions against depicting homosexuality onscreen diminished, Wyler remade a more traditional version of Hellman’s play, incorporating the lesbian accusations. At the core of the play is the issue of truth versus false accusation — still a topical issue. It raises questions about the difference between right and wrong as well as the way in which we value another’s life and tackles social issues such as the effects of prejudice and false judgments. The strong female trio of Davis, Webb and Carson carried the heart of the School for the Arts production. From the beginning, Davis’ intense approach created an evil genius, making her lies more and more believable with every word she spoke. Through her powerful presence on the stage, Carson displayed strong emotions of both love and confusion, reflecting her character’s battle to express the truth despite societal norms and Mary’s lies. Other notable actors included Zacciah Hanson as Karen’s fiancé and Briana Ritter as Lily Mortat, Martha’s aunt. Through her character’s massive ego, Ritter gave a splash of humor to the serious theme of the play. The set, which switched between a classroom and a living room, was simple but thoughtful. The smaller details in the set, including a cluttered bookshelf in the classroom and a mini-bar in the house, made the story feel more realistic. Using e-cigarettes as props, which the actors smoked on stage, provided a true 1930s atmosphere. During some scenes, background music was incorporated, which became a distraction when some audience members mistook the music for a cellphone ring. Overall, the school’s theater department captured the underlying themes within the play with grace. The cast and crew earned a well-deserved standing ovation.

TEEn PROFilE Interact club

Capital High group dedicated to serving community By Blanca Ortiz generation next

apital High School junior Selma Gutierrez was looking for a way to help in her community. The school’s Interact Club gives her a way to do that. “It’s something I do daily, something that comes naturally. It is in my heart,” she said of her participation in the teen club. Gutierrez is not alone in her feelings. “I felt the need to contribute to the community and feel satisfied that I helped people be content in times of struggle,” said Capital High School senior Adrian Sotelo, another member of the club. The Interact Club falls under the umbrella of the Rotary Club. Inter-

act Clubs teach leadership skills and stress community service to students ages 12 to 18. Capital High started its club in 2012; Santa Fe High School started one in 2013. Club members are expected to perform one local community service and one international community service project each year. Capital High School’s club is composed of Capital students who are committed to helping families in need. Many members of the school’s Interact Club come from low-income situations themselves. “The Interact Club’s focal points are admirable — those being service and fellowship,” said Rotary Club President-elect Michael Buttram, the club’s sponsor at Capital High School.

Main office: 983-3303 late paper: 986-3010 news tips: 986-3035

Capital’s Interact Club has a membership of about 15 students. The Interact Club meets once a week. The members discuss their plans for the school year and their shared goals. Last week, they were preparing to approach local businesses and ask for donations to make Thanksgiving food boxes for 100 families. The students identified businesses that are able to give donations. They prepared letters that explained who they are and what their mission is. Students work with grocery store managers to determine each store’s level of commitment. Last year, these kids managed to make 100 Thanksgiving boxes and distribute them to Santa Fe families, receiving several

thousand dollars in donations. This year, students want to meet or surpass that goal. The Interact Club contributes to the global community as well. Buttram, the former director of the small education-based nonprofit Bilingual Education for Central America, said, “I was blown away by the Interact Club’s incredible effort to raise over $8,000 for the students and families that BECA serves in Honduras.” To make the club successful, the members have to commit to fulfilling their goals and put in a lot of extra time outside of school. They all come from different backgrounds and have different stories, but they all share a passion: helping others. Buttram said the students are “capable of seeing

beyond themselves to the needs of others.” Buttram believes students join the club for friendship and “to be a part of something bigger than themselves.” Sotelo echoes Buttram’s point: “I treasure the friendships and bonding moments we have had working on projects.” The Interact Club will have a food drive at Capital High School from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. Friday, Nov. 7. The club is seeking donations of the following items: green beans, canned corn, pumpkin pies, stuffing and other Thanksgiving goods. Blanca Ortiz is a senior at Capital High School.

DEAR SHIRTLESS fake-yoga dude at Larragoite Park: You may think you are some light-filled seeker of spiritual truth but you are really just a self-centered jerk. Wednesday morning, my dogs (on leashes) chased after your dogs (NOT on leashes). When my dogs hit the end of the leashes, I did a face-plant in the grass, losing my glasses and injuring my back. By the way, THAT is the reason YOUR dogs are supposed to be on leashes.) You did not have the Mindfulness nor the Humankindness to notice nor to help me up out of the dirt nor to help me find my glasses. (Do you know how hard it is to find one’s glasses when one is not wearing one’s glasses?) Please contact me through this newspaper:I would like you to reimburse me for the cost of this ad and for the six physical therapy sessions it will require to reassemble my back, Schmuck.
