SANTA FE, USA - travel shorts
Welcome to 'the city different,' a place that makes its own rules without ever forgetting its long and storied past. Walking through its historic neighborhoods, or around the busy Plaza that remains its core, there's no denying that Santa Fe has a timeless, earthy soul. Founded around 1610, Santa Fe is the second-oldest city and the oldest state capital in the US, and is all but unique in having not only preserved many of its seductive original adobe buildings, but also insisted that all new downtown structures follow the same architectural style. And yet, despite being home to the country’s oldest public building and throwing its oldest annual party, Fiesta, Santa Fe is also synonymous with contemporary chic, thanks to its thriving art market, gourmet restaurants, great museums, upscale spas and world-class opera.
At over 7000ft above sea level, Santa Fe is also the nation’s highest state capital. Sitting at the foot of the glowing Sangre de Cristo range, it makes a fantastic base for hiking, mountain biking, backpacking and skiing. When you come off the trails, you can indulge in chile-smothered local cuisine, buy turquoise and silver directly from Native American jewelers in the Plaza, visit remarkable churches, or simply wander along centuries-old, cottonwood-shaded lanes and daydream about some day moving here.
Santa Fe’s mind-boggling assortment of characters include traditional and avant-garde artists, New Age hippy transplants, Spanish families that have called the city home for centuries, Mexican immigrants, retirees from both coasts, and more than a few Hollywood producers and movie stars. Most are drawn above all by the relaxed attitude, the sense of space, the unbeatable climate and that certain something that gives Santa Fe a singularly alluring essence.

Santa Fe School Shooting: Possible Explosive Devices Found | NBC News
Police chief: 'gun in the wrong hands is the problem'
(22 May 2018) In the wake of one of the worst school shootings in Texas history, Houston's police chief thinks despite the rhetoric of the lone star state being gun friendly, that it's time to debate common sense gun control.
Chief Art Acevedo says young people are the likely change agents that will spur a debate about gun control versus gun rights.
He also commented on the police officer critically wounded in the shooting rampage at Santa Fe High School.
He says Santa Fe ISD police officer John Barnes served with Houston Police Department for more than two decades before retiring with an exemplary service record.
A former colleague said Barnes left a big-city police department for the small-town school district to go to an easier life.

Texas School Shooter Confessed
(19 May 2018) The suspect accused of attacking a Texas high school exchanged gunfire with authorities before he surrendered, a top county official said Saturday, a day after the shooting in an art classroom that killed 10 people.
In addition to a shotgun and a handgun, Dmitrios Pagourtzis also had several kinds of homemade explosive devices, but they were not capable of detonating, said Mark Henry, the Galveston County judge, who is the county's chief administrator.
Investigators found a group of carbon dioxide canisters taped together, and a pressure cooker with an alarm clock and nails inside. But the canisters had no detonation device, and the pressure cooker had no explosive material, Henry said.
Authorities offered no motive, but they said in a probable-cause affidavit that the suspect had admitted to carrying out the shooting.
The gunman told police that when he opened fire, he avoided shooting students he liked, the affidavit said.
Pagourtzis, who appeared to have no prior arrests or confrontations with law enforcement, made his initial court appearance on murder charges Friday by video link from the Galveston County Jail. Henry denied bond and took his application for a court-appointed attorney.
The shooting unfolded in Santa Fe, a city of about 13,000 people roughly 30 miles (48 kilometers) southeast of Houston.
It was the nation's deadliest such attack since the Florida massacre that killed 17 and energized the teen-led gun-control movement. It was also the deadliest assault in Texas since a man with a semi-automatic rifle attacked a rural church late last year, killing more than two dozen people.
Meanwhile, students were being let back inside Santa Fe High School to gather belongings they abandoned when the gunfire began.
The school's roughly 1,400 students will be allowed inside in groups of no more than 10 and would be accompanied by officers, said Walter Braun, the school district's chief of police. Braun and other officials declined to answer questions about the investigation.
Although most of the dead had not been publicly identified, relatives and acquaintances said the fatalities included a substitute teacher and a foreign exchange student from Pakistan.
Another 10 people were wounded. The wounded included a school police officer who was the first to confront the suspect and got shot in the arm. Hospitals reported treating a total of 14 people for injuries related to the shooting. Two were listed in critical condition Saturday at the University of Texas Medical Branch, the hospital tweeted.
The gunman yelled Surprise before he started shooting, according to Texas Rep. Michael McCaul, the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee.
McCaul, a former federal prosecutor, said he expects the Justice Department to pursue additional charges, possibly involving weapons of mass destruction.
Pagourtzis played on the junior varsity football team and was a member of a dance squad with a local Greek Orthodox church. Acquaintances described him as quiet and unassuming, an avid video game player who routinely wore a black trench coat and black boots to class.
The suspect obtained the guns from his father, who owned them legally, Gov. Greg Abbott said. It was not clear whether the father knew his son had taken them.

Archaeological and Historical Perspectives on Southeast Santa Fe
Acequias, Trails, Land Grants, and Early Twentieth-Century Urban Expansion: Archaeological and Historical Perspectives on Southeast Santa Fe
Stephen Post
Sparks, SAR Boardroom
Tuesday, February 12, 2013, 3:00-4:00 pm, Free
The acequias and arroyos of Santa Fe's southeast neighborhood supported an agrarian lifestyle and served as important landmarks for Spanish land grants. Roads and trails through the area connected Santa Fe with settlements near Pecos and Galisteo during the Spanish Colonial period. Early twentieth-century growth and thirst for land gave rise to companies like the De Vargas Development Corporation, which was a major influence on the character of the neighborhood we see today. Stephen Post has spent more than twenty years researching the archaeological history of the Northern Rio Grande valley with emphasis on the Santa Fe area.

Lawyer says school shooting suspect’s family 'mystified'
(19 May 2018) An attorney for the 17-year-old accused of killing 10 people at his high school says the suspect's family are mystified by the shooting and that there were no red flags.
Nicholas Poehl, attorney for shooting suspect Dmitrios Pagourtzis who also speaks for the family, told the Associated Press on Saturday that the family was initially worried when they first heard about the shooting about their son being a victim, not the gunman.
Pagourtzis confessed to the massacre at Santa Fe High School, authorities said, but his motivation for the attack remains unclear.
Pagourtzis hid a shotgun and a pistol under his trenchcoat before opening fire in a first-period art class on Friday, according to an affidavit filed by police.
The FBI announced Saturday that it had taken the lead in the joint investigation, at the request of local authorities.
Authorities said Pagourtzis planned the killings, carried out with weapons owned by his father.
