Las Posadas procession draws hundreds to Plaza By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

Hundreds of locals and tourists gathered Sunday night on the Plaza to seek shelter with biblical figures Mary and Joseph. It’s not time travel. It’s called Las Posadas, which means “lodging” or “accommoda-

tions,” and it is a celebration that stems from Christian tradition and Spanish folklore. The gathering features actors playing Mary and Joseph as they journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem, struggling to find lodging before Mary gives birth to Jesus Christ. In Santa Fe, the crowd holds candles and follows the holy couple as men

World Too much to be gentle? bids final farewell to Mandela City’s $559K bill for prairie dog relocation evokes mixed reaction

South African peacemaker buried in hometown after elaborate state funeral

By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

Fewer than 1,000 New Mexicans had enrolled in the federal health insurance exchange by the end of November — far short of goals for the problem-plagued program — and those who have gotten through have come away with mixed feelings. One Santa Fean who finally managed to enroll in the online exchange after weeks of trying was a bit dismayed to find her health insurance will cost at least $100 more a month under the new plan. Jessica Haynie, owner of Three Stones Consulting, is among those the exchange is depending on to help balance health care costs and keep insurance premiums down — she’s young, healthy and gainfully employed. But she’s also among those who will not qualify for subsidies and will pay more for health insurance. Haynie, who couldn’t keep her insurance coverage with Humana, chose a new plan with New Mexico Health Connections that was one of the cheaper options. The plan will still cost her $1,700 more per year than she was paying for her Humana plan, but she can keep her current doctors. Haynie said she understands she’s paying extra to help cover costs for those who can’t afford health

A prairie dog chirps a warning signal to other prairie dogs to take cover at the Railyard. An ordinance approved in 2001 protects prairie dogs within city limits and requires their ‘humane relocation’ if they live on property slated for commercial construction. New Mexican file photos

By Daniel J. Chacón The New Mexican

n farms and ranches across America, prairie dogs are target practice. In the city of Santa Fe, the furry little critters get bubble baths, leftover Big Macs and protection under an ordinance requiring their “humane relocation” if they live on property slated for commercial construction. Even the city government, which has a statue of its patron saint in front of City Hall making eye contact with a prairie dog, is loath to hurt the burrowing rodents. Since the ordinance passed in 2001, the city has incurred $559,000 in relocation costs, much to the chagrin of one city councilor. “I don’t hate prairie dogs, as many people have said I do. I just don’t want them in the fields, and I don’t like that this kind of money is being spent to relocate prairie dogs. The money should and could be spent better within this community,” City Councilor Ron Trujillo said. “It seems like every other place, the minute you get past Santa Fe, be it Pojoaque, Española, Taos, they kill the prairie dogs,” he said. But the city of holy faith has become a prairie dog sanctuary. Twice in recent years, visiting Tibetan Buddhist monks have blessed the prairie dog colony at Frenchy’s Field Park

on Agua Fría Street. During the monks’ first visit, in 2006, the prairie dogs “responded by coming to the surface, moving closer to the praying monks and joining into the chanting and prayers,” according to People for Native Ecosystems, a Santa Fe-based prairie dog advocacy group. Only in extreme circumstances, such as when they contract bubonic plague, will the city kill the critters. Otherwise, the city works to control the population, with methods that include relocation. For several years, the city has been sending its prairie dogs to a remote spot of El Malpais National Conservation Area near Grants, which is managed by the

Bureau of Land Management. “As far as we know, no one has been disturbing them or bothering them at all,” said Edwin Singleton, the BLM’s district manager in Albuquerque. “They’ve got a pretty good life there.” The prairie dogs are part of a larger plan to reintroduce the endangered black-footed ferret, which preys only on prairie dogs, to El Malpais, he said. “They’re a natural and biological control of prairie dogs, and they keep the populations from exploding and [becoming] more susceptible to disease and things like that,” Singleton said. Santa Fe uses more unconventional — but gentle — methods to control the population.

QUNU, South Africa — His flag-draped casket resting on a carpet of animal skins, Nelson Mandela was laid to rest Sunday in the green, rolling hills of the eastern hamlet where he began his extraordinary journey — one that led him from prison to the presidency, a global symbol of endurance and reconciliation in the fight against South Africa’s racist rule. Artillery boomed and military aircraft roared overhead as the simple and the celebrated gathered to pay their final respects in Mandela’s native village of Qunu at a state funeral that blended ancient tribal rituals with a display of the might of the new, integrated South Africa. “Yours was truly a long walk to freedom and now you have achieved the ultimate freedom in the bosom of your maker,” Brig. Gen. Monwabisi Jamangile, chaplain-general of the South African military, said as Mandela’s casket was lowered into the ground at the family gravesite. “Rest in peace.” “I realized that the old man is no more, no more with us,” said Bayanda Nyengule, head of a local museum about Mandela, his voice cracking as he described the burial attended by several hundred mourners after a larger funeral ceremony during which some 4,500 people, including heads of state, royalty and celebrities, paid their last respects. The burial ended a 10-day mourning period that began with Mandela’s death on Dec. 5 at 95, and featured a Johannesburg memorial attended by nearly 100 world leaders and three days during which tens of thousands of South Africans of all races and backgrounds filed past Mandela’s casket in the capital, Pretoria. For South Africans, it was also a time for reflection about the racial integration they achieved when Mandela presided over the end of apartheid, and the economic inequality and other challenges that have yet to be overcome and seem certain to test his legacy’s endurance. The burial site marked a return to Mandela’s humble roots, but the funeral trappings were elaborate. South African honor guards from the army, navy and air force marched in formation along a winding dirt road. In contrast to the military pomp, some speakers evoked the traditions of the Xhosa tribe, to which Mandela’s Thembu clan belongs. “A great tree has fallen, he is now going home to rest with his forefathers,” said Chief

Controversial testing Navy expands sonar research despite troubling signs

Many trains don’t use widely available automatic brakes NEW YORK — A train that derailed in New York City this month had an automatic breaking system that might have prevented the crash, but it wasn’t set up to enforce speed limits on the curve where the wreck happened. Four people died when a Metro-North commuter train failed to slow as it approached a tight curve in the Bronx. The driver told investigators he nodded at the controls. Metro-North trains have equipment that will sound an alarm and hit the brakes if an engineer exceeds a designated speed or blows through a red light. But like many other rail systems, it is configured mainly to keep trains from hitting each other, not regulate speeds on curves, hills or bridges. The railroad is making changes to allow automatic braking in more locations.

SAN DIEGO he U.S. Navy plans to increase sonar testing over the next five years, even as research it funded reveals worrying signs that the loud underwater noise could disturb whales and dolphins. Reported mass strandings of certain whale species have increased worldwide since the military started using sonar half a century ago. Scientists think the sounds scare animals into shallow waters where they can become disoriented and wash ashore, but technology capable of close monitoring has emerged only in about the last decade. Aside from strandings, biologists are concerned marine mammals could suffer prolonged stress from changes in diving, feeding and communication. Two recent studies off the Southern California coast found certain endangered blue whales and beaked whales stopped feeding and fled from recordings of sounds similar to military sonar. Beaked whales are highly sensitive to sound and account for the majority of beachings near military exercises. Scientists, however, were surprised by the reaction of blue whales — the world’s largest animal — long thought to be immune to the high-pitched sounds. It’s unclear how the change in behavior would affect the overall population,. The studies involved only a small group of tagged whales, and noise levels were less intense than what’s used by the Navy. Shy species, such as the Cuvier’s beaked whale that can dive 3,000 feet below the surface, have taken years to find and monitor.

“This is a warning flag and deserves more research,” said Stanford University biologist Jeremy Goldbogen, who led the blue whale study published this summer in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B. Both studies were done by a team of independent scientists as part of a Navy-funded, five-year project launched in 2010 to understand how sonar affects marine mammals. Navy officials say it’s vital to national security that sailors receive sonar training in real-life conditions. Environmentalists have long claimed that sonar harms marine mammals, which use acoustics to mate and forage. They want more protections and accuse the Navy of rushing to obtain five-year permits under the Marine Mammal Protection Act from the National Marine Fisheries Service to increase its sonar testing in U.S. waters without considering the latest science. “If you deafen a marine mammal for even a short period time, you are affecting its ability to survive,” said Michael Jasny of the Natural Resources Defense Council, whose group has sued to force the Navy to add more protections. A federal judge in September ruled marine fisheries officials did not consider the best available data when it approved permits last year for operations stretching from Northern California to the Canadian border. The agency has until August to reassess how it will protect ocean life. The California Coastal Commission also rejected the Navy’s five-year plan for exercises that would start in January off Southern California. However,

Coast Guard wants barges to ship fracking wastewater PITTSBURGH — The U.S. Coast Guard wants to allow barges filled with fracking wastewater to ply the nation’s rivers on their way toward disposal. Many environmentalists are horrified, but industry groups say barge transport has its advantages. Critics of the plan say that if there was an accident, it could threaten the drinking water supply of millions of people. They also cite the uncertainty around what’s in that toxic mix. The Coast Guard is proposing to address that by requiring chemical testing of each barge load before shipment. The wastewater now is usually disposed of by truck or rail. A government report notes that poses more risk for accidents than shipping by barge. The industry says far greater amounts of toxic chemicals are already being moved by barge, including oil drilling waste.

George P. takes baby steps away from Bush name AUSTIN, Texas — The latest scion of one of America’s most powerful political dynasties is trying to convince voters he’s something other than what his famous surname suggests. George P. Bush is the 37-year-old grandson of one former president and nephew of another. He’s launching his political career by running for Texas’ littleknown but powerful land commissioner post. But rather than campaigning on the mainstream Republicanism embodied by the family name, Bush says he’s “a movement conservative” more in line with the tea party and that he draws the most inspiration from former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

the state agency does not have the power to block the drills and the Navy has ignored the agency’s requested protections in the past. The Navy estimates that its activities could inadvertently kill 186 whales and dolphins off the East Coast and 155 off Hawaii and Southern California, mostly from explosives. It calculates more than 11,000 serious injuries off the East Coast and 2,000 off Hawaii and Southern California, along with nearly 2 million minor injuries, such as temporary hearing loss, off each coast. It also predicts marine mammals might change their behavior — such as swimming in a different direction — in 27 million instances. Navy officials said they considered the latest research available, including the two recent studies, but none proves the activities cause significant harm to the marine populations. Navy spokesman Kenneth Hess emphasized that the studies published this summer involved a small group of animals and some did not react, indicating the sound’s distance and other context may play a role. The Navy uses simulators where possible. “Overall, the activities we propose are very similar to the training and testing we have done in these areas for the past 60 years, and we have not seen major impacts on marine mammals from these activities,” Hess said. Until now, studies have measured animals’ response based on recordings similar to military sonar or depended on the tagging of marine mammals during Navy at-sea training in which scientists could not control the distance or intensity.

BANGUI, Central African Republic — The Christian militiamen fighting to oust Central African Republic’s Muslim president from power hide in the hills far on the edge of the capital. Out of the forest of banana trees, about two dozen young men slowly emerge to meet their visitors — armed with clubs, machetes and hunting rifles. As ragtag as they may appear, they pose the greatest threat to the Muslim ex-rebels now ruling the country since they seized power in the majority Christian country nearly nine months ago. And in interviews with The Associated Press, both the militiamen and a former officer in the national army before the March 2013 coup confirmed they are working together to topple rebel leader-turned-President Michel Djotodia. Although the militia movement’s hierarchy is unclear and there are divisions in its leadership, the collaboration is evidence that the opposition movement to Djotodia and his fighters is growing, and could set the stage for a protracted sectarian conflict even as 1,600 French troops on the ground in Bangui try to secure the peace. French forces are supposed to be disarming Muslim and Christian fighters, though the Christian militia hideouts in the bush have made them harder to find.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of California speaks about the pending bipartisan budget compromise Thursday.

REP

WASHINGTON — People hoping for a government that works better can’t decide whether to cheer or lament a bipartisan budget bill that legislative leaders call a breakthrough even as they acknowledge it does little. In an era of low expectations, House passage of the bill marks a rare cease-fire that should avoid a repeat of this fall’s government shutdown and flirtation with default. Yet it comes nowhere near the more ambitious efforts to address long-term spending and debt. Such comprehensive plans repeatedly collapsed in recent years despite secret White House talks, blue-ribbon panels, a congressional “supercommittee” and other devices and tactics. Several Washington insiders warn against assuming the new budget deal will lead to progress on immigration and other stalemated issues. “The president calls it a good first step, but to what?” said Bob Bixby of the bipartisan Concord Coalition, which advocates farreaching budget reforms. “My fear is that it may be the end of the search for the larger grand bargain rather than the beginning. It has that feel.” “Grand bargain” refers to a bipartisan accord that would start to slow the long-term cost projections of Social Security and Medicare while raising tax revenues to lower the deficit, among other things. The bill that passed the

The Democratic-run Senate passed a version this year, but the Republican-controlled House has stalled it. Advocates talk of a possible piecemeal House approach. But Democrats and Republicans are divided on whether millions of immigrants living in the U.S. illegally should be given a path to citizenship. Some influential lawmakers say the budget deal doesn’t necessarily brighten prospects elsewhere. “I don’t see that this is a clear channel for us to move to immigration,” said Rep. Pete Sessions, R-Texas, chairman of the House Rules Committee. “I don’t think

Short: Numbers lower than expected Continued from Page A-1 insurance, but “it doesn’t really make me feel better.” Santa Fe business owner Bryana Mares finally succeeded in enrolling through the exchange, and so far, she’s delighted. She said her premiums with Molina Healthcare will cost $150 less per month, and her deductible is lower. Lisa Estrada, another Santa Fean, is still stuck in the exchange system. She finished the application, but it has been neither accepted nor denied. “Every time I check, it just says pending,” said Estrada, a single mother. People who get fed up with the online enrollment process for the federal exchange can enroll in new insurance plans directly with insurance carriers in the state, including Presbyterian Health Services, Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico, Lovelace, Molina Healthcare and New Mexico Health Connections. While New Mexico is relying on the federal government’s troubled system for enrollment of individuals in the health insurance exchange, it has its own system for enrollment in the expanded Medicaid program and the insurance exchange for small businesses. And although those programs are faring better than the federal exchange for individuals, enrollment numbers are still lower than the state expected. A Dec. 14 deadline for individuals to enroll in the health insurance exchange for coverage beginning Jan. 1 was pushed back to Dec. 23. Individuals and businesses can enroll later, but their insurance coverage won’t start until the month after they sign up and pay their premiums. Following is a breakdown of how the exchange was faring at the end of November: u A total of 934 New Mexicans enrolled through the federal health care exchange between Oct. 1 and Nov. 30. u A federal report released Dec. 12 said 8,539 applications from New Mexicans had been completed, representing about 16,000 residents total. Of those applicants, 9,058 qualified for the individual health insurance exchange. The rest may qualify for Medicaid. The state had hoped to have 40,000 people sign up for insurance through the exchange by early next year. u A total of 523 customers had signed up for health insurance from Presbyterian Health Services through the federal exchange, said Neal Spero, vice president of marketing for the company. Another 488 had signed up outside of the exchange for Presbyterian insurance. The company has 23,000 New Mexicans on individual insurance plans. u Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico did not divulge enrollment numbers, but spokeswoman Becky Kinney said, “The pace of enrollment has improved over time as the government has addressed technical issues associated with the marketplace.” u The state-run insurance exchange for small businesses with less than 50 employees registered more than 1,000 employers. Of those, only 140 actually chose an insurance plan to offer their 600 employees. Employees had until Nov. 30 to choose an insurance plan if they wanted coverage to begin Jan. 1. They can enroll later, but the coverage won’t begin until the month after they enroll and pay their premiums. u Businesses have until March to choose an insurance plan that covers employees through the rest of the year. u State officials are working to help 1,200 of the most seriously ill New Mexicans retain their highrisk insurance coverage until they can enroll through the federal exchange. Those who have plans that cover pre-existing conditions through the federal government can opt to stay with their plans through January before switching, said Debra Hammer, spokeswoman for the state health insurance exchange. The state is working with carriers to extend the highrisk state policies through January as well. u Since Oct. 1, the state’s Human Services Department reported 25,309 Medicaid applications and 3,965 potentially eligible for the program.

Mary (Sylvia Montoya) and Joseph (Ted Ortiz) stand in front of the Palace of the Governors on Sunday during Las Posadas. Hundreds attended the event, which presented a re-enactment of Mary and Joseph’s search for lodging in Bethlehem on Christmas Eve. PHOTOS BY CLYDE MUELLER/THE NEW MEXICAN

Posadas: Tradition used to be spread out over days Continued from Page A-1 most members of the crowd held burning candles, though an audible sigh erupted when a sudden gust of wind blew out half the lights. The procession started shortly after the candle-lighting, with several musicians singing as the crowd snapped photos of Mary and Joseph. The holy couple, played by Sylvia Montoya and Ted Ortiz, started on the Plaza’s north side by the Palace of the Governors, and the procession journeyed clockwise from there. They stopped several times, and at each detour, they were harassed by the demons. Wearing red face paint and makeshift horns, the three devils emerged from windows and doorways to curse at Mary, Joseph and onlookers in Spanish. The most common refrain was, “Váyanse de aqui,” which translates to “get out of here.” The crowd, undeterred, hissed, booed and cursed right back at the demons. Despite their devilish nature, or maybe because of it, the

actors portraying the demons drew many photo requests from those gathered on the Plaza. In a span of 10 minutes, at least a dozen people approached devils Roger Atkins and Maurcio Rosales asking for a photograph. They accepted every request. It was Rosales’ first year as a devil, and the third for Atkins, who said the crowd seemed bigger than in previous years. Mary and Joseph eventually found refuge at the Palace’s courtyard, where musicians played carols under a bandstand adorned with Christmas lights, organizers handed out hot chocolate and cider, and families milled about and discussed the year’s festivities. All told, the procession took less than 15 minutes. Many Northern New Mexico communities traditionally have celebrated Las Posadas from Dec. 16 to Christmas Day, according to a Traildust column by historian and former New Mexican contributor Marc Simmons. Each night, the actors portraying Mary and Joseph would go to a dif-

ferent home, seeking refugee. A crowd would follow the pair and sing songs asking the homeowners to let them in, but the answer would always

be no for the first eight nights, Simmons said. On the final night, Simmons wrote, the biblical couple would finally find lodging,

and participants would carry a wooden baby Jesus into the home if a Nativity scene was not already on display. Simmons said that Santa Fe residents have compressed the communal celebration into a single night since the 1980s. This year’s celebration was so speedy that Las Posadas veteran Antoinette Armijo and her daughter Summer missed half the procession. Regardless, they were happy with the celebration, citing the nice weather, about 40 degrees with no wind, and large crowd. John and Kathy McMillan drove down from Denver with their sons, Wyatt, 6, and Zane, 5, just to attend the event, and they said they felt an affinity for the gathering. “There’s a connection to a real cultural event,” John McMillan said. “There’s a certain honesty here that keeps us coming back to Santa Fe. You can’t find it anywhere else.” Contact Chris Quintana at 986-3093 or cquintana@ sfnewmexican.com.

Gentle: Contractors charge up to $87 per prairie dog Continued from Page A-1 Once the prairie dogs have been targeted for relocation, city contractors pour soapy water into their burrows to force them out, said Robert Wood, the city’s pest-management manager. “The bubbles make it a little hard to breathe, but not impossible,” he said. “Depending upon how extensive their tunnels are made, they will come up out of the hole to get away from the suds, and at that point they can be caught. They’re given a very quick bath, their eyes are washed out and then they’re relocated in cages.” Before the animals are sent packing, the city fattens them up. “The way the ordinance reads, if we relocate, we need to feed them and get them as healthy as possible,” Wood said. “We do that by putting them into a quarantine period. We keep them in separate holding pens, and we feed the heck out of them. They are healthy before they go out in the field.” By the time the city releases them into the wild, “they’ve gained quite a bit of weight,” Wood said.

“They’ve very healthy and very active, both sexually and physically. And by the monitoring we’ve been doing, they’ve expanded their population out there, so we’re actually quite happy with the program the way it’s going,” he said. The city uses only certified contractors to get the prairie dogs out. Some contractors charge up to $87 per prairie dog. “Some charge $77 a dog, but like anything, some of the advocates didn’t like us using the less expensive alternative because they didn’t feel they treated them as well as the more expensive alternative,” said Isaac “Ike” Pino, director of the city’s Community Services Department. “Do I think it’s worth it? I really don’t have an answer, but I will say this: There are a lot of people in town who think it is. Conversely, there are those who think we could spend our money better,” Pino said. “It’s a classic Santa Fe emotional issue.” For Trujillo, the city councilor, it’s about dollars and cents. “That $500,000, in my opinion,

could have been spent in other places doing greater value for this community,” he said. Wood, however, said the costs were high in the beginning when the city faced a huge prairie dog population, but they have since tapered off. “We’re saving the city quite a bit of money by having relocated the majority of the populations that were exploding in certain areas,” he said. Wood said he anticipates the city’s annual costs going forward to be $17,000 — a figure that could be cut in half if people don’t feed the animals. “The biggest problem is the people that drive by that have half a leftover Big Mac or half a leftover fish sandwich that they throw off the side of the road,” he said. “The prairie dogs have actually responded now by — you can almost count on them at 11:30 every day when they’re active — coming out and standing on the sidewalks waiting for people to throw them food. The less food that comes to the particular prairie dogs, then they start going out into traffic and demand it.”

The more people feed them, the more they will reproduce, he said. “With a standard food supply, a prairie dog will produce four pups per mating couple. In other words, you double the number of mating couples out there every year,” he said, adding that prairie dogs give birth to twice that number when they have access to a lot more food. Trujillo said he tried unsuccessfully to pass an ordinance prohibiting the public from feeding prairie dogs. “The prairie dogs, they’re foragers,” he said. “When you’re bringing a buffet to the prairie dogs week after week, as a forager, why are they going to leave?” Wood estimates the city’s prairie dog population at 3,000, down from 12,000 in 2001. “That sounds like a high figure, but there were a lot of prairie dogs located in small pockets all over the city,” he said. “They had reached kind of a crisis point.” Contact Daniel J.

EL NUEVO MEXICANO

Enseñando a Honduras De Uriel J. Garcia The New Mexican

espués de graduarse de una universidad de Texas en 1998, Michael Buttram recibió una beca del Programa Fullbright para estudiar en Alemania, donde aprendió sobre educación comparada — un ejemplo, cómo los maestros son capacitados en Europa respecto a países como Estados Unidos. La experiencia despertó su interés para convertirse en un maestro, dice. Buttram comenzó su carrera en una escuela primaria en Denver. Dos años más tarde, mientras asistía a una feria internacional de trabajo en la ciudad, el oriundo de Ratón descubrió una oportunidad como maestro que lo llevaría hacia su pasión — ayudar a educar a niños de escasos recursos en Honduras. “Mi intención era ir a Latinoamérica debido a que crecí en Nuevo México y la afinidad entre las culturas y mi aprecio por su gente,” comenta Buttram, 37, quien vive ahora en Santa Fe. “Además del idioma, quería realmente mejorar mi habilidad [en español.]” Buttram siempre mostró un interés en el idioma español y la cultura de Latinoamérica, así que cuando tuvo la oportunidad de mudarse a Centroamérica para una posición como maestro en una escuela privada en Honduras, estaba muy emocionado, dice. Enseñó música en una escuela privada de Honduras, operada por maestros de habla inglesa. “Cuando obtuve el trabajo, me dije, ‘Voy a ir y voy a ver el mundo, desde ahí descubriré cuál es mi destino.’ ” Los estudiantes de la escuela eran primordialmente niños de familias ricas hondureñas, comenta, pero algunos estudiantes coreanos también estaban inscritos. “Al llegar, estaba muy feliz ahí,” dice Buttram. “Pero me desilusionó el pensar que iba a servir a una sección diferente de la población, porque yo sabía que Honduras era un país muy pobre.” Buttram recuerda viendo a los estudiantes llegar a la escuela privada en autos blindados. Incluso, algunas sirvientas cargaban las mochilas de los estudiantes a su salón, comenta. Fue así que comenzó a buscar oportunidades para trabajar con niños que carecían de los recursos que sus alumnos tenían. “Los fines de semana y los veranos,” dice, “comencé a buscar oportunidades como voluntario.” Pronto, Buttram descubrió una organización sin fines de lucro con sede en Estados Unidos llamada Bilingual Education for Central America (BECA), siglas que en español significan beca. Educadores de habla inglesa en la organización enseñaban a

los niños hondureños de comunidades de escasos recursos en un ambiente bilingüe. Mientras que Buttram continuaba enseñando en la escuela privada, comenzó como voluntario en las escuelas BECA. Después de casarse con otra maestra estadounidense que vivía en su colonia en Honduras, Katie de Dakota del Norte, Buttram dejó su trabajo como maestro y regresó con su esposa a Estados Unidos. Pero en 2009, la pareja regresó a Honduras, donde los dos trabajaron de tiempo completo en una escuela BECA. En el 2011, Buttram se convirtió en el director ejecutivo de la organización, la cual se fundó en el 2001. “No estamos tratando de prepararlos para que vengan a Estados Unidos ilegalmente”, dice Buttram sobre la gente que trabaja para las escuelas BECA. “Lo que queremos es que sean la fuerza laboral y la clase media del mañana en Honduras. … Queremos que sean los agentes de cambio en un país que tanto lo necesita.” Cuando la esposa de Buttram quedó embarazada con su primer hijo, se mudaron a Santa Fe para estar cerca de sus padres, comenta. Su hijo ahora tiene 2 años y recientemente se dieron cuenta que su esposa espera otro bebé. Algún día, la pareja desearía regresar a vivir a Honduras por unos años, así los niños podrían tener fluidez en español y

apreciar la cultura Latinoamericana, menciona Buttram. El primer año de BECA, tuvo 70 alumnos inscritos en una sola escuela. Recientemente, la organización construyó su tercera escuela debido a la demanda de los padres, comenta Buttram. Ahora son 25 los maestros de habla inglesa. La mayoría de Estados Unidos pero otros son de Canadá e Irlanda, de acuerdo al sitio de internet de la organización. Todos los maestros de BECA son voluntarios y deben comprometerse al menos a un año de enseñanza, dice Buttram. La organización paga su alojamiento y comidas, costos de traslado al país y su pago por la visa. Buttram dice que sólo cuesta $2,000 el operar un salón de clases BECA al año. El dinero se obtiene en E.E.U.U. por medio de recaudación de fondos y donativos, incluyendo eventos con cena y rifa como el programado para el Domingo 15, en una casa en Santa Fe, comenta. Para mayor información sobre Bilingual Education for Central America o BECA, contacte a Buttram al 660-2009 o visite su sitio www.becaschools. org.

No, m’hijo, el mundo to go ask for what? ¿What are ‘mis changes and so do los tiempos …” Crismes’?”

¿Crees que las normas son una carga innecesaria impuesta a la industria por un gobierno entrometido? Echa un vistazo a lo que está pasando en México cuando se trata de la manufactura de autos de exportación. Sin reglas o estándares, las corporaciones internacionales harán su mejor esfuerzo en hacer lo mínimo, incluso a costa de vidas. En México — actualmente el cuarto exportador más grande de autos — los coches y las camionetas son fabricados seguros sólo cuando General Motors o Nissan los exportan a aquellos países que lo demandan. Los autos más seguros están equipados con dispositivos de seguridad como frenos antibloqueo (ABS), control electrónico de estabilidad (ESC) y más bolsas de aire por auto o camioneta. Los vehículos que van hacia Estados Unidos o Europa cumplen con esos estándares. Nuestras leyes los exigen. Pero los autos vendidos en México o el resto de Latinoamérica no los llevan (aunque nuevas leyes en Brasil y Argentina van a comenzar a demandarlos, incluyendo doble bolsa de aire al frente y sistemas de frenos ABS, el próximo año). Debido a que el precio al que se venden es similar al de E.E.U.U o Europa — algunas veces mayor — las compañías incrementan sus ganancias con los autos más baratos y poco seguros. Pero hay un costo. Más mexicanos están muriendo en accidentes automovilísticos. Un artículo de Adriana Gómez Licón para La Prensa Asociada puso en perspectiva el tema: “En 2011, casi 5,000 conductores y pasajeros en México murieron en accidentes, un 58 porciento más desde el 2001, de acuerdo con la última información del Departamento de Transporte. En la misma década, E.E.U.U. redujo su número de fatalidades un 40 porciento. El índice de muertes en México, comparando fatalidades con el parque vehicular, es más de 3.5 veces que el de Estados Unidos.” Pensemos en esos números. Las muertes por accidentes automovilísticos en Estados Unidos cayó un 40 porciento. En México ese porcentaje subió un 58 porciento. Con una industria automotriz de $30 billones para la economía de México, incluso defensores del consumidor creen que un cambio en el sistema resulta muy difícil. El cambio no necesita nuevas leyes. Las compañías automotrices transnacionales y sus ejecutivos necesitan hace lo correcto, poner las vidas de los automovilistas antes de la ganancia. O el gobierno tendría que hacer su trabajo y regular a las industrias que eligen ganancia sobre vidas. Sin leyes, sin estándares, las compañías se concentran en hacer dinero. Sabemos esto por nuestra historia en Estados Unidos. En Estados Unidos, los ciudadanos estamos seguros gracias a un iconoclasta llamado Ralph Nader, que en 1965, escribió Unsafe at Any Speed: The Designed-In Dangers of the American Automobile o En Riesgo a Cualquier Velocidad: Los Peligros en los Automóviles de América. Él mostró el patrón de las compañías de manufactura de autos. Ellos no querían gastar dinero en hacer los autos más seguros. Su libro amarillista condujo a la Legislación de Seguridad en el Auto o National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act en 1966, leyes sobre cinturones de seguridad en 49 estados y otras iniciativas de seguridad en el camino. México y los mexicanos necesitan encontrar el modo de mejorar la seguridad de los autos. Las trasnacionales fabricantes de automóviles, desde luego, pueden cambiar su manera de hacer negocios y hacer autos más seguros para todos. ¡Increíble! El hacer lo correcto, no requiere de normas.

TECH GIFT GUIDE

Tablets Stories by Hayley Tsukayama The Washington Post

Apple iPad Air Apple’s newest full-size tablet is thinner than a pencil and quicker than its predecessors, making it Apple’s fastest and lightest full-size iPad to date. That may not sound like much, but it makes a difference when you actually pick up the iPad Air. Now light enough to hold for extended periods with one hand, the iPad is much more portable and capable as a magazine or newspaper stand-in. Taken with a crisp screen and long battery life, the iPad Air is much easier to carry and use on the go than its predecessors. There are some spots for improvement. The iPad’s camera, in particular, could use an upgrade from 5 MP to at least bring it in line with the iPhone’s 8 MP. Some were expecting the tablet to incorporate the touch-based security features that are in the new flagship version of the iPhone, the 5S. That wasn’t a necessity, but would have been a nice feature as the average person puts more information on a tablet. The iPad Air isn’t a “must upgrade now” addition to the Apple tablet lineup but should make those who’ve been mulling an upgrade — or looking to get into the tablet market — more than happy.

ratively speaking. Technically speaking, the tablet is just under three-quarters of a pound and comes with a very portable 7.9-inch screen that will tuck easily into a smaller purse or briefcase pocket. The main news in this update is that Apple has finally added the “retina” display, which is the company’s way of saying that its screen’s individual pixels can’t be seen with the naked eye. Translated out of tech speak, that means that the iPad mini — like the newest iPhones, iPads, iPods and some Macs — has a supersharp screen that’s good for reading and watching movies. Its small screen cuts down on the ability to do work, so keep in mind that this is probably a tablet meant more for play than work. The iPad mini isn’t the best value tablet of its size — competitors offer similar features for less money — but it does stand out because of its high-quality construction and because of its access to Apple’s extensive app market. Get it: If a fuzzy screen is all that’s been keeping you from this tablet Skip it: If a low price tag is a high priority Price: $399 and up

Amazon Kindle Fire HDX

iPad mini

Amazon’s been upping the quality of its hardware with each new generation of its Kindle Fire tablets. With its newest HDX models, the company puts forward its best efforts to date. While the tablets don’t have the same premium feel of Apple’s iPads, both the 8.9-inch and seven-inch versions are lighter than their respective counterparts from Cupertino, thanks to smaller screen sizes and plastic — rather than glass and aluminum — construction. The HDX addresses many of the

Video games ‘Grand Theft Auto V’ While much of the focus on this holiday’s game lineup is on titles for the latest consoles, the latest games for the Microsoft Xbox 360 and Sony PlayStation 3 certainly shouldn’t be overlooked — especially because they’re still the primary consoles in most homes. Grand Theft Auto V shattered sales records when it was released in October, and for good reason: If you’re a GTA fan, it’s a heckuva lot of fun. The satirical bite that runs through all the games in this blockbuster series from Rockstar Games is evident in its latest installment, which is set in a fictional version of Los Angeles post-economic crisis and lets carjacking players soak up a setting where citizens are dealing with foreclosures, online privacy and affordable health care. Sound familiar? As always, this series isn’t going to win any prizes for its fine role models or showcasing good values. While the game provides raucous — and unabashedly violent — fun, it’s certainly not a title for all ages. Some of the scenes, particularly a controversial title depicting torture, can make even the mosthardened gamer a little uncomfortable to be holding the controller. Get it: If you like your satire served raw Skip it: If you’re at all squeamish about digital violence Price: $54.99, for Microsoft Xbox 360 and Sony PlayStation 3

nearly as often as they will land on a normal ground level. The graphics are impressive, as is the attention that has gone into setting the tone of the game. Danger feels real, even when you’re fully aware that you’re really safe on the couch. Still, the game’s storyline — while better than previous games — feels a little stilted, which hurts the flow of the single player. As with most Call of Duty games, Call of Duty: Ghosts finds its real stride in the multiplayer, where the game’s designers have poured their efforts into making bigger maps and new multiplayer modes. These include Cranked, which pits teams against each other and makes players pick off opponents in rapid succession. Another, Grind, requires players to collect the dog tags of those they kill and deposit them in “banks.” All in all, Call of Duty: Ghosts is a strong addition to the series, though those who like to see sequels get bigger to get better may see this as playing it a little too safe. In many ways, the title steps back from the blockbuster brink and opts for a simpler focus on the action.

most common gripes about previous models, including a smarter placement of its few buttons and much faster processing and Web surfing. The tablets also carry a smart feature for first-time tablet owners — built-in 24/7 video tech support, through a customer service feature it calls “Mayday.” Tap on the Mayday life-preserver icon, and you’ll see a real, live person ready to help you with your tablet problems — and no worries, the help desk can’t see you. Still while the Kindle Fire HDX is Amazon’s strongest tablet yet, it most benefits people who are deeply hooked into the Amazon ecosystem and want to shop at the online marketplace. And it’s still not a great tablet for working; there’s some lag in typing, so email can be a frustrating experience. In other words, these tablets are great for reading books and watching movies but not for writing your own novels or screenplays. Get it: If you’re an Amazon loyalist or a first-time tablet buyer Skip it: If you want a tablet to do a lot of work Price: $299 and up

Google Nexus 7 Google has held the crown in the tiny tablet space with its Nexus products, thanks to its relatively low cost and high performance. The firm has kept that up with the latest iteration of the Nexus 7, its seven-inch tablet, which is better than its predecessor in all the important ways: faster, lighter and thinner. As is true of many Google products — or, really, any products running Google’s Android operating system — the experience on the Nexus 7 is best if you’re a true Google convert.

‘Knack’ PlayStation 4 launch title Knack introduces players to a tiny titular protagonist that they’ll love off the bat. But don’t be deceived: He packs a significant punch. Knack is a robotlike creature powered by ancient relics that appear everywhere in this world; and the more relics you find, the bigger he gets. In a relic-heavy level, you may find that the adorable little guy you started off with has grown up quickly to punch through mountains. Part of Knack’s charm — and by Knack, we mean both the game and the character — is that it’s best for players to be big or small at different times. That disrupts the normal progression of games, in which players bulk up over time, but it also runs the risk of getting tedious as you wend your way through the plot. And while Knack is fun, it’s not terribly challenging. Even when going through levels where you have to jump on crumbling tiles or dodge traps, the game doesn’t throw too many unexpected punches. Players do have the option to turn up the difficulty, but you’re likely to fall into patterns easily even in those modes. For a game that provides consistent fun for every member of the family, Knack is a charming choice. Get it: If you want a cute, fun game Skip it: If you’re looking for a real challenge Price: $59.99, for Sony PlayStation 4

‘Wonderful 101’ The Wii U, now a year old, isn’t getting the billing that its competitors from Microsoft and Sony are — and gamers have yet to fully embrace its two-screen style of play.

‘Call of Duty: Ghosts’ Call of Duty is one of the biggest franchises out there, which can be a double-edged sword. On one hand, it puts pressure on developers to please a huge fanbase game after game. On the other, it also means that relying on fan favorites can make each successive title feel a little warmed over. Call of Duty: Ghosts is largely successful in navigating between the two, by offering a game that’s just familiar enough to please. The game play is fast, fluid and varied; players will find themselves in the air, underwater and up the side of a building

Those who use Google for mail, maps, browsing and more will find that the Google experience is baked deeply into the tablet. The tablet, which has front- and rear-facing cameras, is now also a good option for video-conferencing, which improves its utility with college students, parents and anyone who’s far-removed from loved ones. The screen also has been improved on this generation of the Nexus 7, which makes it great for personal viewing, though crowding around the tablet’s seven-inch screen is a less-than-ideal experience. Still, Google has turned out another strong, solid product with the Nexus 7, and it’s a great choice for anyone looking to pick a new tablet. Get it: If you want a smaller tablet at a good price Skip it: If you’re not that into Google’s Web services Price: $229

Grand Theft Auto V

Microsoft’s first experiment to breaking into the tablet world hit some bumps — in brief: poor sales, lukewarm reviews and general ridicule. But the firm has soldiered on and created a new generation of its Surface tablets to bridge the gap between tablet and laptop. All Surface models have an optional keyboard cover, which makes the tablets a credible — though not total — laptop replacement, especially since they run Microsoft Office programs. With the Surface 2, a successor to the much-knocked Surface RT, Microsoft has moved the product forward by leaps and bounds. They’ve done this in a few significant ways, including extending the tablet’s battery life and bumping up its internal specs so it runs faster and cooler. Putting the tablet into sleep mode, the company says, keeps it from drawing any additional power, so you can reasonably expect to use it on a single charge over many days. Microsoft also has added a second angle to the tablet’s built-in kickstand so that the Surface 2 is more stable on an actual lap when in laptop mode. That said, it does still have limits. Surface 2 does a fine job of showing off what Microsoft has to offer with its touch-based Windows 8 operating system, but navigating has a learning curve. And while Surface 2 has plenty of productivity apps, it lags behind Apple and Google on the breadth of other apps on offer, which means that you may not be able to pick up exactly the program you want. That’s something that will improve — and if you can wait another cycle, it might be worth seeing what other improvements Microsoft has up its sleeve. Get it: If getting work done is your primary aim for a tablet Skip it: If you want a really wide selection of apps Price: $449 and up; keyboard covers start at $79.99

Wonderful 101, however, takes on the second screen with gusto. Players control an everexpanding horde of tiny superheroes in this whimsical title, and players control the mob using the tabletlike GamePad controller as a sort of central command. By drawing on the GamePad, users can fashion weapons out of the little heroes — swords, axes, guns, etc. — to fight enemies throughout the game. Special superheroes let you form special weapons, which can be useful against particular types of enemies. While a little unwieldy in the beginning, patient Wonderful 101 players may find themselves falling into a rhythm, ultimately getting a big kick out of their itty-bitty super army. Get it: If you want to see what the Wii U can do Skip it: If you’re not a fan of a learning curve Price: $59.99, for Nintendo Wii U

‘Forza Motorsport 5’ One of Microsoft’s most-anticipated exclusives for the Xbox One, Forza brings in all the goodies that gearheads want from a racing game, with gorgeous graphics and a ton of lens flare. It’s hard to make a truly innovative racing game; it’s often best just to try and make the basics as fun as possible. To that aim, Forza is successful, upholding its reputation as more of simulation-style racer than one that feel like an arcade game. Users can shift among a few views — behind the wheel, on the hood or over the car — to suit their tastes. In the cockpit view, there’s been plenty of attention to detail, and players can even check out the rear-view mirror for a realistic touch that makes races that much more fun. Even the damage is a little bit real, though players do have the option to turn back the clock for really bad wrecks. But the cars do get dirty and dinged, so there is at least some reward in driving safely. It’s certainly the kind of title that will have users taking advantage of the recording features on the Xbox, which let you brag about — er … share — clips of the previous 30 seconds of game play. Of course, if racing doesn’t tickle your fancy, than there’s not much else to Forza Motorsport 5. It’s all about beautiful cars, fast driving and burning rubber that you can almost smell. Get it: If you’re into high-octane fun Skip it: If cars just aren’t your thing Price: $59.99, for Microsoft Xbox One

Potty train early for best results

FAMILY

Too pricey for a toy

Question: My 18-month-old kicks me and hits me when I try to change his diaper. He doesn’t do this for his father or grandparents. Should I hold his legs down until he gives up, or will this worsen things? Answer: Holding his legs will definitely make matters worse. The solution, of course, is to toilet train him. I know, the current pediatric party line is he’s too young, he hasn’t shown certain “readiness signs,” and if you just leave him to his own devices, he’ll toilet train himself. Baloney. The fact is, just as it’s much, much easier to housetrain a 4-month-old puppy than a 1-year-old dog, it is much, much easier to toilet train an John 18-month-old human than one who’s Rosemond 30 months old or older. The older the Living With dog/child, the more difficult it will be Children to teach the new “trick.” The further fact is that the standard list of toileting readiness signs is bogus. As I point out in my book on toilet training, these “signs” were snatched out of thin air by certain professionals — the “pioneers” were pediatricians Ben Spock and T. Berry Brazelton — who were trying to lend an air of science to what is a relatively simple, straightforward process. The only readiness sign a pre-1960s mom (before the toilet-babblers began babbling) paid any attention to was her own readiness to stop changing and washing diapers. Here is my one-paragraph, less-than-150-words toilet training program: Purchase a toddler potty. Put it in the bathroom. Show your son how to sit on it. If you haven’t already, let him see you using the “big potty.” Toss the diapers and dress him in thin cotton underwear only (no pants when at home) so that his “stuff” goes down his legs and otherwise causes discomfort. Purchase a kitchen timer. Tell your son it’s the “potty bell.” Set it to ring every hour, on the hour. Load your son up with liquids and drink lots of water yourself. When the timer rings, tell your son it’s time for the two of you to sit on your potties. Take him into the bathroom and help him sit. Then sit yourself (when dad’s in charge and whenever your son’s around to watch, he should also sit). Make using the toilet a family affair! In no time, your little kickboxer should be using the potty with minimal help from you. If for whatever reason you’re not ready to toilet train, then the backup plan is to let his dad and grandparents change him as often as possible. When there’s no alternate diaper changer available, then just change him, kicking and all. Don’t say anything while doing so. Just work around his kicking as well as you can. To maintain your cool, try singing a song. May I suggest 19th Nervous Breakdown by The Rolling Stones? I remember going through the same thing with our son, who was also our first. We used cloth diapers with him. They required pins. His struggling was cured rather quickly after a few pins accidentally pricked his skin. The old technology did have its merits.

iven that full-featured tablets aren’t cheap, it’s no big surprise that a lot of parents are somewhat reluctant to turn one over to a child. There are some tablets, though, that are fun enough to keep the kids entertained, yet safe and cheap enough to keep mom and dad from pulling out too much of their hair.

ClickN KIDS Tablet (ClickNKIDS)

Meep! (Oregon Scientific) Meep! is a good choice for very young kids or slightly older ones (up to fourth grade) who have no experience with tablets. If they’ve played on your iPad or other adult tablet, they’ll be frustrated. What sets Meep! apart, though, are the attachable accessories (purchased separately), such as a mic and piano keyboard. One especially great feature: The Meep! Store (for purchasing or downloading additional apps) takes only Meep! Coins, which you (the adult) purchase. You can then set a budget,

including front and rear cameras and the preloaded full (commercial-free) versions of some of the most popular apps and games (including Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja) and great educational apps from Mr. Nussbaum. Kurio also has the best parental controls on this list. The Genius

This tablet takes ClickN KIDS’ award-winning reading programs and wraps them in a tablet. The emphasis is definitely on education — the ClickN KIDS comes with more than 100 reading lessons — but there’s plenty of opportunity for entertainment too. Unlike most of the other tablets in this category, which were designed mostly for kids, the ClickN KIDS will appeal to teens and adults as well. Once you log into the password-protected Grown Ups interface, you’ve got a small but full-featured tablet that you can use for email, Skype, Netflix, etc. At 5 hours, battery life is a little short, but the tablet charges quickly. www.clicknkids tablet.com/.

It’s a sad fact that every year, millions of unwanted pets wind up in animal shelters. Why are there so many unwanted animals? What can you do to help? Find out on today’s Kid Scoop page. Controlling the pet population in this country is a good place to start being truly kind to animals. animals Each year, year a thousands of dogs and cats are abandoned and then killed. Sometimes people get a pet and find out, too late, that they can’t care for it. All too often, the pet is then abandoned or left at a shelter.

1. Don’t get a pet unless you are really prepared to care for it. Read at the library about how to care for the pet you want, and then decide if you truly have the time it takes. 2. If you have a cat or dog, get it spayed or neutered so that it won’t breed and produce young.

Justin is an adventurous, cute ute 4-week-old kitten. He is a brown tabby with a white _______. _. He has black stripes on his head, and nd his feet look like socks.

He crawls around his cage, and it’s like he’s __________, __, “Let me out!”

But wait, it gets worse. Some people do not spay or neuter their pets, which means the ne animals keep producing unwanted young. k Sadly, not enough good homes exist for all the puppies and kittens born into this world. So these unwanted pets also end up in shelters, where many of them must be put to death.

A good home for Justin would be a big house so he could __________ around. You will have fun if you get him. He will win over a bunch of people. Standards Link: Reading Comprehension: Follow simple written directions.

One female cat that is not spayed can have eight to ten kittens a year. If each of her kittens has kittens, and all of those kittens have kittens, after five years, the one female cat you started with will have brought over 100,000 cats into the world. If you could get 100,000 cats in one line, it would be about 25 miles long!

Spaying is the operation that prevents female cats and dogs from breeding. Neutering is the operation that prevents male cats and dogs from breeding.

Upholding majority requirement for cloture votes: The Senate has upheld a ruling finding that cloture votes by the Senate to end debate on presidential nominations for all positions other than the Supreme Court require a bare majority of one-half of all votes (typically 51 votes out of 100) to win approval, in place of the former rule that required a supermajority of three-fifths of all votes (typically 60 votes out of 100) to win approval. A supporter of the ruling, Sen. Patrick J. Leahy, D-vt., said the change was necessary because Republicans had taken their determined obstruction to judicial nominees to an unprecedented level, blocking nominees and thereby failing to meet the Senate’s constitutional duty to vote on nominations. An opponent of the ruling, Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said that with the rules change, Democrats had “changed more than 200 years of Senate practice, taking away one of the few tools the minority has to participate in either the confirmation or legislative process.” The vote to uphold the ruling, on Dec. 10, was 51 yeas to 45 nays.

COMMENTARY: MARGARET CARLSON

From Francis, a cry for the poor W WASHINGTON hat would Francis do? To many in the United States, including conservatives who embrace the pope as one of their own on social issues, that question is akin to asking what would Jesus do, only with fresher answers. The pontiff used his first, personally authored apostolic exhortation to provide guidance on what he would do about the growing gap between the rich and the poor. Two days later, President Barack Obama weighed in on the same subject in his third speech about growing income inequality in the United States. The pope was more dramatic, prescriptive and moral. The president had to couch his analysis in self-interest, this being America governed by a Congress unmoved by the poor being blessed and inheriting the Earth. “The basic bargain at the heart of our economy has frayed,” the president said Dec. 4, and it is “this generation’s task” to repair it. This duty has been largely ignored by this generation and this administration, caught up as it had to be in rescuing the financial titans who got us into the worst recession since World War II. The slow recovery that followed worked to the detriment of just about everyone else. Obama tried to link the fate of the richest 1 percent, who earn a larger share of income now than at any time since the Gilded Age, to the well-being of those at the opposite end of the spectrum. Who is going to buy their products and be trusted to clean their houses if the working poor don’t have a chance of achieving the American dream? The pope took a different tack: He urged governments to stop letting the powerful “feed upon the powerless.” Add, he says, another commandment — “thou shalt not” have an economy of exclusion and inequality, because “such an economy kills.” On the heels of the pope and the president came a powerful front-page series in The New York Times about an 11-year-old girl named Dasani, one of the 22,000 desperately poor children in New York who live in the shadow of the incredibly wealthy. In his speech, Obama described the lot of such a child: Born into

OUR VIEW

A nudge toward better governing

T Good thing the Vatican doesn’t get cable. The pope would have choked watching anchors dismiss the notion of a boost in the minimum wage. the bottom 20 percent, she has less than a 5 percent chance of making it to the top, and she is 10 times more likely to be stuck in place. Dasani has spunk and intelligence, and she runs like the wind, but she doesn’t have a life outside school. She lives with eight people amid rats, roaches, mold, a mop bucket for a toilet, filthy showers and with no place to call her own but a corner of a falling-apart mattress on the floor. At first, her classmates didn’t know that she is one of only six homeless kids in their midst, but it became more obvious as her clothes got dirty and there was no place to wash them. As the oldest, Dasani tries to protect her siblings from the worst degradation: being labeled as “shelter boogies” because they have neither tissues nor someone who cares enough to wipe their noses. The pope warns that the poor could rise up if we don’t fix the chasm between living like Dasani and living, relatively, like a king. Francis has shed some of the luxurious trappings of the papacy. He lives in a modest guesthouse rather than the Apostolic Palace, travels in a Ford Focus and goes out incognito at night to minister to the poor. He wants a church

that is “bruised, hurting and dirty because it has been out on the streets.” He suspended a bishop for spending millions of euros on a luxurious residence in Germany. The president can’t make such gestures. He occasionally visits a shelter or a food bank. He gave his income-equality speech at a community center in a blighted neighborhood not far from the White House. His ministering is largely confined to recalcitrant members of Congress who claim they might do something if only he would wine and dine them. Irrationally hated for something as mildly redistributionist as the health care law, he must tiptoe around poverty (he rarely says the word) or be labeled a Kenyan socialist, or be called a man with “Marxism coming out of his mouth,” as the pope was by Rush Limbaugh. The pope warned of the smug rich who blame the poor for their plight. “How can it be that it is not a news item when an elderly homeless person dies of exposure, but it is news when the stock market loses two points?” he asked. Good thing the Vatican doesn’t get cable. The pope would have choked watching anchors dismiss the notion

of a boost in the minimum wage, as if protesting fastfood workers were asking for more welfare, not catching the early bus to stand on their feet eight hours doing unforgiving, repetitive labor. Where would a wage increase end? they asked on every channel, apparently all equipped with the same talking points. Why stop at $15? Why not go to $35, $100,000 an hour? The absurd is the last refuge of a pundit without an argument. While the well-off blame the working poor for remaining poor, they cut miles of slack to the 1 percent. At the end of October, the chief executive officer of JPMorgan Chase, Jamie Dimon, had to pay another $13 billion in fines on top of billions for misdeeds such as the London Whale debacle. The thought that he should be fired or his outsized pay cut was treated as if you’d asked him to shine his own shoes. The pope begged for leaders who are disturbed by the “lives of the poor,” and Obama showed that he shared some of that outrage, shaming the House into extending unemployment insurance. It would be so satisfying to take Limbaugh, the editors at the American Spectator and National Review, the hosts of every financial news show and Sen. Ted Cruz to Dasani’s one-room home and ask if it would be Marxism to save her. We are a better country than the one that ignores her. Margaret Carlson is a Bloomberg View columnist.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

SFCC, city in a lose-lose situation

A-11

ho runs the Santa Fe Community College — the president or the SFCC Governing Board? What is the reason President Ana “Cha” Guzmán was fired? The SFCC board used taxpayers’ money to recruit her and entrusted her to lead SFCC. What did President Guzmán uncover that caused her to be fired? In this community, we often see great efforts to recruit, but boards are quick to fire because of differences in personalities or management styles. Give President Guzmán the opportunity to do what she was hired to do. If she does leave SFCC, where will we find another president? Who will want to lead our SFCC if they are not allowed to lead?

Whether you like President Guzmán or not, taxpayers will pay greatly for these actions. Let us remember, this college is about educating our community, not watching a leader be taken down for no reason.

state money. Ergo, why bother? She averred that ego alone would cause them to gather. Tragic, but true. Really, though — there is simply no point. They do not fund enough for police to enforce anything. How frustrating that must be to the state police! Personally, I’ve just been informed, after four months, that the livestock inspector who told me a neighbor was in violation of state law has just told local animal control that he won’t pursue it. It took three state policemen to even take a report. Hey out there! No one cares! So, just stay home, legislators, and save us a bunch of bucks! Julia Wood

he notion of a powerful elite deciding what is best for all and then using psychological tricks to herd the populace along is somewhat alarming. But Great Britain, using the latest in behavioral health techniques, is making progress with intractable problems by applying psychology. It’s all, apparently, in the nudge. The nudge is how a government, a political campaign or a private group — anyone, really — can persuade people to behave in ways that benefit the government or the group. A recent New York Times story (“The Ministry of Nudges”) outlined how the nudge works. It can prod people into better outcomes with such subtlety that they might not even notice its influence. The notion of the nudge was made popular in the 2008 best-seller, Nudge, by Richard H. Thaler and Cass R. Sunstein. Great Britain is taking the notion further and putting it to the test with widespread experiments: “The goal is to see if small interventions that don’t cost much can change behavior in large ways that serve both individuals and society.” Prime Minister David Cameron has even set up a Behavioral Insights Team (the nudge unit) to make government work better. There is an element of Big Brother in this whole idea — the unseen hand manipulating individuals. But the nudge could encourage some behaviors that would benefit communities. For instance, even the most ardent libertarian might agree that the government has the right to collect taxes. But how can the government improve the tax-collection rate? A “nudge” unit could help. And collecting all the money owed to the government would mean more dollars for services without the need for a tax hike. Imagine, at a local level, bringing in 98 percent of taxes — or increasing the number of people who pay outstanding traffic tickets or fines. Using the nudge, it’s possible. Letters could be personalized to improve tax payments. Even text messages could help bring in more revenue. Experiments in Britain show that a personalized text message improves payment of court fines to more than 40 percent (up from 5 percent with a reminder letter). Such techniques are cheaper than taking miscreants to court. Nudges could help persuade scofflaws to return library books on time, saving money that would be spent on replacing lost books. Nudges, perhaps, could persuade Santa Fe’s notoriously bad recyclers to do better — and imagine a full-bore campaign encouraging people to stop littering. We could see “nudges” working in the public schools — targeted text messages and phone calls could be used to alert parents whose children miss too much school. Other successes in Britain involved helping people navigate unemployment systems, persuading people to insulate their attics (turns out, they needed to clean the attics first) and placing stickers in public urinals to encourage a better aim (savings in cleaning costs). This is smart governing — as long as bureaucrats don’t get carried away. But to improve tax collections? That’s a program we don’t need a nudge to get behind.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Dec. 16, 1913: EL PASO — Two hundred more foreigners, including 60 Americans, arrived here today on a special train from Chihuahua City, Mexico. Among them were French, German, Italian and Spanish people, who had been engaged in business in Mexico. They reiterated the stories told earlier by refugees that General Francisco Villa’s attitude toward them and his action in expelling Spaniards had created a desire among all foreigners to leave the country. They said that since the Spaniards left, the property taken from their stores had been auctioned and the proceeds placed in the rebel treasury. Dec. 16, 1963: PORTALES — Sam Sanders doesn’t want state museum or university archaeologists digging in his gravel pit for prehistoric bones and tools unless he is paid. At stake in this conflict between businessman and archaeologists is the preservation of evidence showing early man’s travels through 12,000 years in Eastern New Mexico. A spear point and flint knife were left among the bones of a prehistoric mammoth by Llano Man, who waited for his prey on the bank of an ice age pond in Blackwater Draw. Some 120 centuries later, someone was scratching in Sanders’ gravel pit and uncovered the hunter’s success.

NEW YORK — Tom Laughlin, whose production, marketing and making of Billy Jack set a standard for breaking the rules on and off screen, has died. He was 82. Billy Jack was released in 1971 after a long struggle by Laughlin to gain control of the film. He wrote, directed and produced Billy Jack and starred as the ex-Green Beret who defends a progressive school against the racists of a conservative Western community. The Associated Press

LONDON — Known on the one hand for his starring role in Lawrence of Arabia, leading tribesmen in daring attacks across the desert wastes, and on the other for his headlong charges into drunken debauchery, Peter O’Toole was one of the most magnetic, charismatic and fun figures in British acting. O’Toole, who died Saturday at age 81 at the private Wellington Hospital in London after a long bout of illness, was nominated a record eight times for an Academy Award without taking home a single statue. He was fearsomely handsome, with burning blue eyes and a penchant for hard living that long outlived his decision to give up alcohol. Broadcaster Michael Parkinson told Sky News television it was hard to be too sad about his passing. “Peter didn’t leave much of life unlived, did he?” he said. A reformed — but unrepentant — hell-raiser, O’Toole long suffered from ill health. Always thin, he had grown wraithlike in later years, his famously handsome face eroded by years of outrageous drinking. But nothing diminished his flamboyant manner and candor. “If you can’t do something willingly and joyfully, then don’t do it,” he once said. “If you give up drinking, don’t go moaning about it; go back on the bottle. Do. As. Thou. Wilt.” O’Toole began his acting career as one of the most exciting young talents on the British stage. His 1955 Hamlet, at the Bristol Old Vic, was critically acclaimed. International stardom came in David Lean’s Lawrence of Arabia. With only a few minor movie roles behind him, O’Toole was unknown to most moviegoers when they first saw him as T.E. Lawrence, the mythic British World War I soldier and scholar who led an Arab rebellion against the Turks. His sensitive portrayal of Lawrence’s complex character garnered O’Toole his first Oscar nomination, and the spectacularly photographed desert epic remains his best known role. O’Toole was tall, fair and strikingly handsome, and the image of his bright blue eyes peering out of an Arab headdress in Lean’s film was unforgettable. Playwright Noel Coward once said that if O’Toole had been any prettier, they would have had to call the movie Florence of Arabia. Prime Minister David Cameron said Sunday the movie was his favorite film, calling O’Toole’s performance “stunning.” In 1964’s Becket, O’Toole played King Henry II to Richard Burton’s Thomas Becket and won another Oscar nomination. Burton shared O’Toole’s fondness for drinking, and their offset carousing made headlines. O’Toole played Henry again in 1968 in The Lion in Winter, opposite Katharine Hepburn, for his third Oscar nomination. Four more nominations followed: in 1968 for Goodbye, Mr. Chips, in 1971 for The Ruling Class, in 1980 for The Stunt Man, and in 1982 for My Favorite Year. It was almost a quarter-century before he received his eighth and last, for Venus. Seamus Peter O’Toole was born Aug. 2, 1932, the son of Irish bookie Patrick “Spats” O’Toole and his wife, Constance. There is some question about whether Peter was born in Connemara, Ireland, or in Leeds, northern England, where he grew up, but he maintained close links to Ireland, even befriending the country’s now-president, Michael D. Higgins. Ireland and the world have “lost one of the giants of film and theater,” Higgins said in a statement.

6:25 p.m. on ESPN NFL Football Two teams in the thick of playoff races in their respective conferences clash tonight at Ford Field in Detroit, where Matthew Stafford and the Lions welcome in Joe Flacco (pictured) and the Baltimore Ravens. In the midst of a career year, Stafford will face a Ravens pass defense that ranks among the NFL’s best. The same can’t be said for the Lions’ pass “D”, a No. 28-ranked unit that Flacco will certainly try to exploit. 7 p.m. on ABC Disney Prep & Landing Santa’s elves suffer job burnout, too. In this charming animated special, Dave Foley gives voice to Wayne, a member of the elite elf team that prepares for and oversees Santa’s arrival at children’s houses. He was hoping for a promotion; instead, he has to stay where he is and train an annoyingly overzealous new assistant (voice

of Derek Richardson). Of course, no Christmas special would be complete without a crisis and a lesson to be learned. 7 p.m. on CBS How I Met Your Mother Marshall (Jason Segel) finally hitchhikes his way to the Farhampton Inn, where he and the gang encounter a wedding guest who’s determined to stir up trouble among them. Andrew Rannells (The New Normal) guest stars in the new episode “Bass Player Wanted.” 7:30 p.m. on ABC Prep & Landing: Naughty vs. Nice The yuletide adventures of Christmas elves Lanny and Wayne continue with this special. With the Big 2-5 fast approaching, Wayne and Lanny must race to recover classified North Pole technology that has fallen into the hands of a Naughty Kid. Desperate to prevent Christmas from descending into chaos, Wayne seeks out the foremost Naughty Kid expert to aid in the mission, a bombastic member of the Coal Elf Brigade who’s also his estranged brother, Noel. 8:30 p.m. on CBS Mom Bonnie (Allison Janney) has a new love interest: Chef Rudy (French Stewart), who happens to be Christy’s (Anna Faris) co-worker. So guess who is caught in the middle of this arrangement. Nate Corddry, Matt Jones, Sadie Calvano and Blake Garrett Rosenthal also star in the new episode “Corned Beef and Handcuffs.”

flynn finishes Dallas

By Jim Vertuno

The Associated Press

AUSTIN, Texas — For a decade, Mack Brown and the Texas Longhorns won more games than almost any other program in the country. It was the inability to meet those lofty expectations over the past four years that pushed Brown to resign after 16 years, ending an era that included the national championship following the 2005 season. “The standard is really high here,” Brown said Sunday at a campus news conference to explain his decision. “We set a standard at this place. You’d better win all of them. I understand that. … The standard is really high here, and I’m proud of being part of setting that standard.” From 2000-09, Brown’s teams averaged more than 10 wins a season, captured two Big 12 titles, won a national title and played for another. But the program dipped sharply to 5-7 in 2010, Brown’s only losing season, and the Longhorns have lost

Manziel passes torch to Winston By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Famous Jameis has replaced Johnny Football as the face of college football. Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston won the Heisman Trophy on Saturday night. Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel, last year’s winner, finished fifth in the voting and seemed to enjoy a relaxing trip to Manhattan, playing the role of supporting actor to Winston’s leading man. Manziel was the first freshman to win the Heisman, and it helped turn him into one of the biggest celebrities in sports. Not all the attention he got after winning the award was good. Winston is now the second freshman to win the Heisman. He has a chance to lead the top-ranked Seminoles to a national championship next month against No. 2 Auburn, though the entire story of his season has included an unsettling chapter. In many ways, Manziel has been where Winston is headed. “Life’s going to change,” Manziel said. “This is an extremely big deal.” Manziel basked in the spotlight

ARLINGTON, Texas f this was Matt Flynn’s last start in place of Aaron Rodgers, it was quite a memorable one. Flynn threw four touchdown passes in the second half, Eddie Lacy had the winning score on a 1-yard plunge after an interception by Tony Romo gave them one more chance, and the Green Bay Packers matched the biggest comeback in franchise history in a 37-36 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. Romo tossed two interceptions in the final three minutes, the first one

giving Green Bay a chance for the go-ahead score with the Cowboys in position to run out the clock with a 36-31 lead. Lacy scored with 1:31 to go for Green Bay’s first lead since the first quarter and after the Packers trailed 26-3 at halftime. “It took me everything not to cry,” said Packers coach Mike McCarthy, whose team won its second straight without Rodgers after going winless in the first five, including the Chicago game when the star QB got hurt. “I’m just drained. Just the sheer emotion. It was incredible.” Playing on the same field where

Rodgers was the MVP when they won the 2011 Super Bowl, the Packers matched the 1982 team in a September game against the Los Angeles Rams for the largest rally. The Packers (7-6-1) kept their playoff hopes alive with Rodgers possibly returning next week. He was close to medical clearance, but he missed his sixth straight game with a broken collarbone. He was wearing a headset on Green Bay’s sideline. “Most guys would pack it in — ‘Guys, it’s not our season. Let’s go home and get ready for next year,’ ” said Green Bay cornerback Tramon Williams, who had an interception

overturned on review before a gameclinching pick that was ruled incomplete and reversed on replay. “It’s not that vibe here.” The vibe in Dallas could be negative for a while, with Dez Bryant walking off the field before the game ended and refusing to talk to reporters in the locker room, simply shaking his head at them after finishing with 153 yards and a touchdown. “This is one of the hardest losses that I’ve experienced,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said. “That’s a shame that we’ve lost that ballgame.” The Cowboys (7-7) blew a great

No. 2 Syracuse beats St. John’s SCOREBOARD By Jim O’Connell

The Associated Press

NEW YORK — St. John’s coach Steve Lavin kept referring to two parts of the Red Storm’s 68-63 loss to No. 2 Syracuse on Sunday. There was the first half. “With the great energy in the building and the fans in a true rivalry, this is as good Syracuse 68 as it gets, and someSt. John’s 63 how we came out tentative, kind of on our heels,” Lavin said of the first 20 minutes that ended with Syracuse leading 39-27. Then there were the final four minutes, after the Red Storm had not just tied the game but taken the lead three times. “I thought for the first 16 minutes of the second half, we played the best basketball we played this year,” Lavin said. “In that final four-minute stretch, we had untimely turnovers, a flurry of missed free throws. We didn’t get stops. On our home court, and we had the lead. I expected to win.”

C.J. Fair and freshman guard Tyler Ennis both scored 21 points for the Orange. Fair hit three big shots from the same spot — about 15 feet from the basket on the right baseline. The smooth left-handed shooter tied the game from there at 58 with 6:51 to go, then he made two more in the final 3 minutes as the Orange (10-0) were able to open a lead as big as seven points. “We went to C.J., and he made a couple of tough plays. Shots that had to be made,” Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim said. Fair smiled as he said, “I guess that’s what you say is my sweet spot.” Since 1979, this had always been a Big East Conference game. Syracuse is now a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference, and St. John’s remained in the Big East. The majority of the crowd of 16,357 was rooting for Syracuse, something they used to get to do during the Big East tournament. Now, it will be a rare visit to Madison Square Garden for the Orange. “It was a great game at the Garden,” Boeheim said.

Ennis had 15 points in the first half as Syracuse took a 39-27 lead. The Red Storm (6-3) chipped away and were able to tie it at 53 on three free throws by Rysheed Jordan with 9:16 to go. There were then four lead changes and three ties as Syracuse became the second highly ranked team to escape this weekend. No. 1 Arizona beat Michigan 72-70 on Saturday. D’Angelo Harrison led St. John’s with 21 points on 6-of-19 shooting, including 1 of 5 from 3-point range. Jordan had a careerhigh 13 points for the Red Storm and JaKarr Sampson added 12. It was the Orange’s ninth straight win in the series that Syracuse leads 51-37. The Red Storm missed their first 10 attempts from 3-point range and were 1 of 15 overall. They were coming off a 104-58 victory over Fordham in which they shot 60 percent on 3s. “The last four minutes of a game is where Syracuse separates itself,” Lavin said.

Brown: Coach to stay on as consultant Continued from Page B-1 at least four games for four consecutive years. Brown said he knew that wasn’t good enough. It was time to find a new coach to guide the Longhorns back among the national elite and heal a fractured fan base that had grown impatient. His final game will be the Dec. 30 Alamo Bowl against Oregon. Brown was under contract until 2020 with a salary at more than $5 million per year. He will stay on as a special consultant to President Bill Powers, a role that his current contract stipulates would pay him up to $500,000. Details of any further compensation for Brown were not immediately available. Texas had expected a return to championship form this season, but a 1-2 start ignited months of speculation that Brown would retire or be forced out. Texas rallied

with six straight wins, then dropped two of its last three games. A chance to win the Big 12 title was lost to Baylor in the finale. Brown met with Powers and athletic director Steve Patterson on Friday to discuss his future. Brown said both told him he could stay, but after sleeping on it Friday night and talking it over with his wife, he decided it was the right time to resign. “I felt like I could stay,” Brown said. “I really felt like it wasn’t best for the university to stay.” Powers said he was not pressured by the school’s board of regents to help push Brown out of the job. “I was not given any direction at all from any regent,” Powers said. “This is the transition of one of the great football coaches in the country.” Brown said he hoped he would be remembered for “bringing joy to Texas” and doing it with integrity. Asked if he

had any regrets, Brown said the only ones were the death of player Cole Pittman in 2001 and the 1999 accident with the Texas A&M bonfire that killed 12. The search to replace Brown begins almost immediately, but Powers and Patterson gave few hints as to who may be on a list of potential candidates. Patterson, barely a month on the job after being hired from Arizona State, must find a coach who can handle the pressure of being the face of the wealthiest athletic program in the country. “And you’ve got to win. You’ve got to win big,” Patterson said. “We’ll find the best football coach we can.” Patterson gave no timeline for a hiring a coach and said he’d meet with Powers to establish the criteria for the job search.

Saturday

Torch: Winston says he needs to grow up Continued from Page B-1 after winning the Heisman and decided to live loud and large. His road trips made headlines. His tweets were analyzed. He got tossed from a frat party and overslept a meeting at the Manning Passing Academy. Real potential trouble came when the NCAA looked into whether he signed autographs for money. He got off with a half-game suspension. “There’s a lot of scrutiny if you don’t walk a fine line,” he said. “I was a little bit uncharacteristic, a little bit out of the box, and I caught some flak for it. Figured it out a little bit as the year went on and continued to live my life and learn as I went along. It was tough, but I had to do it.” Manziel’s missteps seem quaint considering the allegations that Winston was facing. Last month, a 1-year-old sexual assault complaint against him became public, and the Tallahassee Police gave the dormant case to the state attorney’s office for a full investigation. A female Florida State student claimed

Winston raped her. Winston’s lawyer said the sex was consensual. The state attorney determined there was not enough evidence to charge Winston, announcing that decision four days before Heisman votes were due. Winston says he felt vindicated, but also acknowledged needing to grow up some. “One thing that coach [Jimbo] Fisher has always told me, especially through this process: ‘For you to be a man, the kid in you must die,’ ” Winston said before winning the Heisman on Saturday. “I believe that kid in me has died. I’m always going to have my personality. I’m always going to have my character. But I have to become a man.” Manziel said he was impressed with the way Winston handled his business on the field while dealing with problems away from it. “I had to go through controversy, and I had to go through some things,” Manziel said. “To see him at such a young age, to put his head down and to focus on his teammates and where they are and where

they’re headed … I do give him a lot of credit for that with all the scrutiny he’s under. I feel like he’s done a tremendous job of focusing on his team and on his family and what matters most.” Manziel, a third-year junior, can declare for the NFL draft after this season. What could be his last game will be New Year’s Eve against Duke in the Chick-fil-A Bowl. In his Heisman follow-up season, Manziel’s passing stats improved as he stayed in the pocket more often. Both his completion percentage (69.1) and yards per attempts (9.5) went up. If he does go pro — and it’d be an upset if he didn’t — he’ll again be the center of attention as one of the most scrutinized players in the draft. The college game will belong to Winston, and Manziel said he should embrace his newfound fame. “Live it up. Enjoy it,” Manziel said. “Continue to be yourself and don’t let anybody change from that. You’re going to have to adapt to how life is going to be after this.”

Title: Senior O’Malley scores winning goal Continued from Page B-1 he’s done for college soccer,” Cirovski said. “I hope he enjoys this one. At Maryland, we shoot for the stars every year. We aim high. And when you aim that high and when you don’t reach it, you still end up at the moon, which is higher than most people.” Shipp, a finalist for the MAC Hermann Trophy as the nation’s best player, set up O’Malley’s winning goal with a perfectly placed free kick in the 60th minute. O’Malley leaped for Shipp’s kick and directed a header past goalkeeper Zack Steffen’s outstretched arms. Coming into Sunday’s title game, O’Malley, a senior defender, had scored just twice in his collegiate career — and, according to Clark, he missed a couple of chances throughout the season. But he didn’t miss when it counted. “The goal itself was really put on a silver platter for me,” O’Malley said. “It would have been tough for me to screw it up, I suppose. Harry just played a beautiful ball, and all I needed to do was redirect it to the back post.” O’Malley, from nearby West Chester, said it was extra special to score the championship-deciding goal in front of many of his family and friends, who made the short commute to watch him play at PPL Park.

“I kind of jokingly said after the game — but I’m a little bit serious —that people think I’m good now,” O’Malley said. “So, hopefully, I’ll just ride that.” Brown tied it at 1 in the 40th minute with a tough-angle shot. He entered the game as a reserve when Vince Cicciarelli was forced to leave when he broke his collarbone in the 10th minute. Luke Mishu and Nick Besler were both credited with assists after Besler flicked on a long Mishu throw-in right to the foot of Brown, who slid a tough-angle shot past Steffen. Mullins, Maryland’s own Hermann Trophy finalist, opened the scoring for the Terrapins in the 35th minute. Moments earlier, Mullins thought a penalty kick was warranted when a volley from Alex Shinksy from cleared off the goal line by what looked to be the arm of Notre Dame’s Patrick Hodan. But Hodan was not called for the hand ball and then Mullins used his own hand to bring the ball down and deposit a shot past goalkeeper Patrick Wall. “In the heat of the moment, I hit it down with my hand and, like any good forward, I hit it in the net,” Mullins said. “That’s not who I am and I’m very disappointed in how that play resulted. … I will regret that one for the rest of my life.” Mullins, who shared College Cup Most

Outstanding Player honors with Shipp, had 19 goals this season and finished his college career with 47, second in program history. But for Cirovski, it was the character Mullins displayed in admitting to an intentional hand ball that shows what MLS teams will be getting when the Maryland senior is likely selected as one of the top picks in next month’s draft. “When I build my stadium, I’m going to bronze a statue with him out front,” Cirovski said. “He’s made from the best stuff on earth. It affected him. It affected him a lot. … His conscience was hurting.” For Shipp — who finished his senior season with 12 goals and 11 assists, including three in the College Cup — it was not only gratifying to win a national title but to do so for Clark. “I think this program has known for the last few years that we’re headed in the right direction,” Shipp said. “We had a great regular season [last year], but I think we kind of realized that it was time for this program to take the next step. And we thought the only logical place to do that was to reach the final four and win a national championship. “And to do it for this guy — our coach — is amazing. He’s probably the most underappreciated college soccer coach in the country.”

Finishes: Despite loss, Dallas still controls its playoff chances Continued from Page B-1 chance to pull even with Philadelphia in the NFC East but still control their playoff fate. They finish with Washington and the Eagles. “We still control what we feel like we can get done,” Romo said. “It just doesn’t feel like it right now because we let it slip away.” With Dallas leading 36-31, Bryant made a lunging first down after a catch just before the twominute warning that looked as if it would Dallas help hold off a huge Green Bay rally. But Romo threw behind Miles Austin after escaping a sack, and Sam Shields intercepted at midfield. The Packers steadily moved downfield before the plunge by Lacy, who had 141 yards rushing. Behind for the first time since the first quarter, Romo threw a ball too far in front of Cole Beasley, and Williams made a diving grab that was initially called incomplete. When the video review overturned the call, Flynn ended the game with kneel-downs.

“Right now, words really have no effect,” Dallas cornerback Brandon Carr said. “Complete debacle the second half. We’ve just got to get better, man.” Williams had an earlier interception overturned on review with Dallas clinging to a 29-24 lead. He cradled a deflected pass in his arms and had a weaving return to inside the Dallas 10, but replayed showed the nose of ball hitting the turf. The Cowboys went on to score when Bryant made a leaping grab over M.D. Jennings and got two feet down in the back of the end zone for a 36-24 lead. Flynn answered with his fourth straight scoring drive to get the Packers back within five. A Dallas defense that gave up eight straight scoring drives to Chicago in a loss last week let the Packers get touchdowns on five straight drives after halftime. “What a feelin’!” said Flynn, who threw for 299 yards with one interception. “As we were taking a knee, we were thinking ‘Is this real? Is this happening?’ ”

Foils: Dolphins snap 7-game losing streak against Patriots Continued from Page B-1 area and didn’t do a good job finishing drives,” he said. “We came up on the short end of the stick. It wasn’t a good day. Just couldn’t make enough plays.” The Dolphins (8-6) won their third game in a row to help their AFC wild-card chances, and they snapped a streak of seven consecutive losses to the Patriots. “We were short in every area,” New England coach Bill Belichick said. “Nothing was really good enough.” Brady threw for 364 yards, but drives of 16, 15 and 13 plays produced a total of only six points. The last drive came in the final 1:15, when Brady led the Patriots from their own 20 to the Miami 14. It was familiar stuff from the Patriots, who had mounted second-half rallies to win their past three games. With New England out of timeouts, Brady threw for the end zone four times in a row. The

first three passes went incomplete, including one intended for Danny Amendola that Thomas broke up on first down. Then, Thomas stepped in front of Austin Collie to make his interception. The reserve safety, signed Tuesday off the San Francisco 49ers’ practice squad, was making his NFL debut. “I knew being the new guy that Tom Brady would come after me,” Thomas said. “He’s a great quarterback, and he’s going to exploit any weaknesses. I knew if I got in there, I would have a chance. I saw the ball in the air and I made a play.” Thomas was part of an injury-depleted secondary that also included backups at both cornerback spots on the final drive. Brady went 34 for 55 and threw two scores. Julian Edelman made 13 catches for 139 yards, and Amendola added 10 receptions for 131 yards. New England took a 20-17 lead when Edelman scored on a 24-yard reception with four minutes left, but the Dolphins caught a break when the ensuing kickoff by Stephen Gostkowski went out of bounds, allowing them to start at their 40.

Browns drop fifth straight game to Bears The Associated Press

CLEVELAND — The home finale began with several inches of snow piled up inside the Browns’ stadium. By Bears 38 game’s end, Browns 31 the losses were at familiar depths. Cleveland’s unshakable misery endures. Unable to stop Chicago’s offense at crucial times or protect another late lead, the Browns dropped their fifth straight game, 38-31 on Sunday to the Chicago Bears, who rallied in the second half behind quarterback Jay Cutler and kept the their NFC playoff push rolling forward. The Browns (4-10) scored two defensive touchdowns and had the lead in the fourth quarter before again crumbling. They’ve lost eight of nine. It’s the sixth straight doubledigit loss season for the Browns, who were 3-2 under first-year coach Rob Chudzinski and actually had playoff potential before falling apart. “We’ve just got to find a way to finish games,” linebacker D’Qwell Jackson said. “We’ve proven we can create leads. We can dominate when we want to. It’s just we’ve got to learn how to finish games.” Cutler, who missed Chicago’s previous four games with a sprained left ankle and reclaimed his starting job from Josh McCown earlier this week, threw a 4-yard TD pass to Earl Bennett with 5:41 left as the Bears (8-6) stormed back and temporarily moved ahead of Detroit in the NFC North. The Lions (7-6) play Monday night.

ning streak. With Adrian Peterson and Toby Gerhart out, Matt Asiata rushed for the first three touchdowns of his career, and Greg Jennings caught a career-high 11 passes for 163 yards for the Vikings (4-9-1). Asiata ran for 51 yards on 30 carries.

Cutler finished 22 of 31 for 265 yards and validated firstyear coach Marc Trestman’s decision to stick with him over McCown, who had played so well while filling in for Chicago’s starter. Jason Campbell, coming off a career-best game last week in a one-point loss at New England, threw two interceptions and failed to bring the Browns back. Campbell had hoped to build off last week’s strong game, but the veteran never found a rhythm. He finished 23 of 39 for 273 yards. CHIEFS 56, RAIDERS 31 In Oakland, Calif., Jamaal Charles tied a franchise record with five touchdowns in a game and gained 215 yards from scrimmage as the Chiefs beat the Raiders and clinched at least a wild-card spot. Alex Smith threw five TD passes, going 17 for 20 for 287 yards to make the Chiefs the fourth team ever to make the playoffs a year after losing at

least 14 games. Kansas City (11-3) is tied for first place in the AFC West with Denver but needs help to win the division because the Broncos swept the season series. STEELERS 30, BENGALS 20 In Pittsburgh, Antonio Brown caught a touchdown pass and returned a punt for a score in a 64-second span in the first quarter, and Pittsburgh beat Cincinnati. Shaun Suisham added three field goals for the Steelers (6-8), who built a 24-point lead and hardly looked like a team playing out the string. Ben Roethlisberger completed 20 of 25 passes for 191 yards with a touchdown and an interception. Le’Veon Bell added 117 yards of total offense. VIKINGS 48, EAGLES 30 In Minneapolis, Matt Cassel passed for 382 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another score to lead the injury-depleted Vikings over Philadelphia, snapping the Eagles’ five-game win-

FALCONS 27, REDSKINS 26 In Atlanta, Desmond Trufant deflected Kirk Cousins’ pass on a potential winning 2-point conversion with 18 seconds remaining, and the Falcons edged the Washington Redskins. The Falcons (4-10) scored 20 points off seven Washington turnovers. The Redskins (3-11) tied a team record with five lost fumbles. 49ERS 33, BUCCANEERS 14 In Tampa, Fla., Vernon Davis caught a touchdown pass for the fifth straight game, and Michael Crabtree scored his first TD since returning from injury to help San Francisco beat the Buccaneers. The victory was the fourth straight for Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers (10-4), who pulled away for good with a 10-minute, fourth-quarter drive that produced a field goal. Kendall Hunter put it well out of reach, scooping up a fumble on the ensuing kickoff and diving 2 yards into the end zone for a touchdown. SEAHAWKS 23, GIANTS 0 In East Rutherford, N.J., Richard Sherman had two interceptions, Marshawn Lynch scored on a twisting, triple-effort 2-yard run, and Steven Haus-

chka kicked three field goals as Seattle manhandled the Giants for their sixth road win. Russell Wilson toyed with New York’s defense, running for 50 yards and throwing for 206 and a touchdown before sitting out the last few minutes. Wilson has 23 wins, the most for a quarterback in his first two seasons in the Super Bowl era. COLTS 25, TEXANS 3 In Indianapolis, Andrew Luck threw two touchdown passes, and Robert Mathis broke Indianapolis’ single-season and career sacks records by forcing a second-half safety to lead the Colts past Houston. Luck finished 19 of 32 for 180 yards with one interception and needed only two quarters to put up 20 points, four short of Indy’s combined first-half point total from the previous six games. But the Colts (9-5) did it against a team that has lost 12 straight overall and is 0-12 all-time in Indy. BILLS 27, JAGUARS 20 In Jacksonville, Fla., EJ Manuel threw two touchdown passes and ran for another score, leading Buffalo to a victory against the banged-up Jaguars. Manuel bounced back from the worst game of his rookie season — a four-interception performance at Tampa Bay last week — and left his college state with his first win in five road starts. The former Florida State star didn’t do anything spectacular, just dinking and dunking the Jaguars for 193 yards. He also ran for 37 yards, including an

8-yard touchdown in the second quarter. Manuel completed 17 of 24 passes. PANTHERS 30, JETS 20 In Charlotte, N.C., Cam Newton threw for 273 yards and a touchdown, Captain Munnerlyn had two sacks and returned an interception for a score, and the Panthers bounced back from their most lopsided loss of the season. With New Orleans losing 27-16 to St. Louis, the Panthers (10-4) pulled even with the Saints with the rematch set for next Sunday in Charlotte. If Carolina wins its final two games, it will clinch the division and the first-round bye. The Panthers haven’t been to the postseason since 2008. RAMS 27, SAINTS 16 In St. Louis, Drew Brees threw interceptions that led to touchdowns on New Orleans’ first two possessions, Quinn had two sacks, giving him an NFC-leading 15, and his quarterback hit on the Saints’ first snap of the game altered the flight of the ball on T.J. McDonald’s interception. CARDINALS 37, TITANS 34 (OT) In Nashville, Tenn., Jay Feely kicked a 41-yard field goal in overtime, and Arizona edged the Titans in overtime after blowing a 17-point lead late in the fourth quarter. Still, the Cardinals (9-5) won their sixth in seven games. With San Francisco and Carolina winning, they remained a game back of both for a NFC wild-card berth.

AVISO PÚBLICO

AVISO PÚBLICO DE LA PRESENTACIÓN DE UNA SOLICITUD POR PARTE DE SANTA FE SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT AGENCY PARA LA RENOVACIÓN Y LA MODIFICACIÓN DE UN PERMISO CORRESPONDIENTE A UN RELLENO SANITARIO PARA RESIDUOS SÓLIDOS, QUE INCLUYE UNA AMPLIACIÓN LATERAL Y VERTICAL, Y EL AGREGADO DE RESIDUOS ESPECIALES PARA EL RELLENO SANITARIO CAJA DEL RIO, SANTA FE, NUEVO MÉXICO De conformidad con la Sección 22 de la Ley de Nuevo México sobre Residuos Sólidos (NMSA 1978, sección 74-9-22) y la Subsección G de 20.9.3.8 NMAC (el Reglamento), por este medio se les notifica al público y a otras personas y entidades potencialmente afectadas que Santa Fe Solid Waste Management Agency ha presentado ante la Oficina de Residuos Sólidos del Departamento del Medio Ambiente de Nuevo México (NMED por su sigla en inglés) una solicitud para renovar y modificar el Permiso correspondiente a un relleno sanitario para residuos sólidos (el Permiso) para el Relleno sanitario Caja del Rio (Relleno sanitario). Los documentos correspondientes a esta solicitud estarán a disposición de los interesados en la dirección que aparece en la Sección 5 de este Aviso. A continuación se detalla la información pertinente según lo exigido por la Ley y el Reglamento: 1. Nombre, dirección y número de teléfono del Solicitante Mr. Randall Kippenbrock, P.E. Santa Fe Solid Waste Management Agency 149 Wildlife Way Santa Fe, NM 87506 (505) 424-1850 2. Fecha prevista para el comienzo de la renovación y modificación y horario de funcionamiento El Relleno sanitario es un vertedero de residuos sólidos existente que funciona bajo el Permiso Núm. SWM261708 y SWM-030706(SP) otorgado por el NMED en junio de 1995. El Relleno sanitario seguirá funcionando bajo su permiso ya existente hasta que el Secretario del NMED decida emitir, emitir con condiciones o negar el permiso para la renovación y modificación. La fecha prevista de comienzo para la ampliación vertical y lateral propuesta será enero de 2015 si se emitiera el permiso para la renovación y modificación. El horario de funcionamiento del Relleno sanitario es de 7 de la mañana a 5 de la tarde de lunes a domingo, aunque este horario varía según las estaciones del año. El Relleno sanitario está cerrado al público durante tres días feriados importantes (Día de Acción de Gracias, Navidad y Año Nuevo). 3. Descripción de las instalaciones (a)

Proceso general: El Relleno sanitario actualmente acepta residuos residenciales, comerciales, escombros de construcción y demolición (C&D por su sigla en inglés), residuos verdes y abono para compostaje, y dos tipos de residuos especiales (lodo y tierra contaminada con petróleo) según las definiciones de la Ley y el Reglamento. El Relleno sanitario recibe residuos sólidos de transportistas comerciales registrados y de transportistas autónomos. Los residuos sólidos son colocados y compactados en celdas revestidas que están protegidas por sistemas de control ambiental; que incluyen, entre otros, sistemas de recolección de lixiviados, revestimientos compuestos, sistema de control de gases del relleno sanitario y controles para la gestión de aguas pluviales. Al recibirse los últimos residuos sólidos, el Relleno sanitario se cubrirá con una cubierta final conforme al Reglamento. Los residuos especiales son procesados conforme al Reglamento correspondiente. Al final de cada día laboral, la superficie de trabajo del área de depósito de residuos sólidos municipales (MSW por su sigla en inglés) se cubre con un mínimo de seis pulgadas de tierra o una cubierta alternativa diaria como lo apruebe el NMED. El Relleno sanitario tiene también un programa de trituración y compostaje para desviar los residuos verdes y el abono del Relleno sanitario. Esta Solicitud de Renovación y Modificación del Permiso es para un vertedero único.

(b) Ubicación: El Relleno sanitario está ubicado aproximadamente a 7 millas al oeste de la Ciudad de Santa Fe, en el Distrito Municipal (Township) 17 Norte, Zona (Range) 8 Este, y las Secciones 21, 22, 27 y 28, en el Condado de Santa Fe, Nuevo México. (c)

Tamaño: La superficie incluida dentro de los límites del Relleno sanitario autorizado es de 495 acres. Dentro de los límites autorizados, la Fase Oeste existente del Relleno sanitario consta de aproximadamente 87 acres de relleno sanitario revestido para depósito de MSW y C&D. La ampliación lateral Fase Este propuesta se encuentra dentro de los límites autorizados y constará de aproximadamente 54 acres adicionales de superficie de relleno sanitario revestido para depósito de MSW y C&D.

(d) Cantidad y frecuencia de los depósitos de residuos sólidos: El Relleno sanitario recibe actualmente alrededor de 450 a 500 toneladas de residuos sólidos por día, pero puede recibir más o menos residuos sólidos en determinados días según sea el volumen de residuos. El relleno sanitario también aceptará los residuos especiales que se detallan en el punto (e). También se incluye el tonelaje anual estimado para cada tipo de residuo especial que se recibirá en el relleno sanitario. (e)

Tipos de residuos sólidos: El Relleno sanitario seguirá aceptando residuos sólidos, incluidos los siguientes residuos no peligrosos: Residuos sólidos municipales residenciales, residuos sólidos comerciales, y escombros de construcción y demolición. El Relleno sanitario seguirá aceptando lodo (1700 toneladas/año) y tierra con petróleo (360 toneladas por año), los cuales son residuos especiales no peligrosos. Asimismo, el Relleno sanitario solicita la aprobación para el depósito de los siguientes residuos especiales no peligrosos: Residuos sólidos industriales (10 toneladas/año), derrames de sustancias químicas o productos comerciales (10 toneladas/año), residuos anteriormente peligrosos característicos tratados (1 tonelada/año) y residuos de sumideros del lavado de vehículos (28 toneladas/año).

(f)

Descripción de la modificación: Se solicita la modificación del permiso para obtener la aprobación para el depósito de cuatro tipos de residuos especiales adicionales; para aumentar la cota de nivelación final de la Fase Oeste 40 pies por encima de la cota actual permitida (85 a 95 pies por encima del nivel del suelo); para ampliar horizontalmente el Relleno sanitario actual hacia el este, llamada Fase Este, al aumentar la superficie de relleno sanitario revestido en aproximadamente 54 acres adicionales, que se extiende 70 a 110 pies por encima del nivel del suelo; para actualizar los planes de gestión del relleno sanitario, calcular los costos de cierre/posteriores al cierre y la seguridad financiera relacionada; y para proporcionar actualizaciones de los planes ingenieriles que incorporan las más recientes filosofías de diseño y tecnologías. De ser aprobado en 2015, el permiso tendría vigencia hasta el año 2035.

4. Origen de los residuos Actualmente, el Relleno sanitario sólo recibe residuos procedentes de la Ciudad y el Condado de Santa Fe según lo exigido por el Acuerdo de Autoridades Conjuntas entre la Ciudad y el Condado de Santa Fe. 5. Comentarios La Solicitud del Permiso está a disposición del público para su revisión en las dos direcciones que se indican a continuación. Los comentarios relativos a esta Solicitud de Permiso deben dirigirse al Solicitante y al Departamento del Medio Ambiente de Nuevo México en los siguientes puntos de contacto: Solicitante: Santa Fe Solid Waste Management Agency Caja del Rio Landfill 149 Wildlife Way Santa Fe, NM 87506 Attn: Mr. Randall Kippenbrock, P.E.

2. Anticipated Start-Up Date of Renewal and Modification and Hours of Operation The Landfill is an existing solid waste facility operating under Permit No. SWM-261708 and SWM030706(SP) issued by the NMED in June 1995. The Landfill will continue to operate under its existing permit until the NMED Secretary decides whether to issue, issue with conditions, or to deny the permit for renewal and modification. The anticipated start-up date for the proposed vertical and lateral expansion will be January 2015 if the renewal and modification permit is issued. Operating hours for the Landfill are 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday, although these hours vary seasonally. The Landfill is closed to the public on three major holidays (Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day). 3. Description of the Facility (a) General Process: The Landfill currently accepts residential, commercial, construction and demolition debris, green waste and manure for composting, and two special wastes (sludge and petroleum contaminated soils) as defined in the Act and the Rules. The Landfill receives solid waste from registered commercial haulers and self haulers. The solid waste is placed and compacted in lined cells that are protected by environmental control systems; including, but not limited to, leachate collection systems, composite liners, landfill gas control system, and storm water management controls. Upon final receipt of solid waste, the Landfill will be capped with a final cover in accordance with the Rules. Special wastes are processed in accordance with the applicable Rules. At the end of each working day, the working face of the of the municipal solid waste (MSW) disposal area is covered with at least six inches of soil or an alternative daily cover as approved by NMED. The Landfill also has a mulching and composting program to divert green waste and manure from disposal at the Landfill. This Application for Permit Renewal and Modification is for a single facility. (b) Location: The Landfill is located approximately 7 miles west of the City of Santa Fe in Township 17 North, Range 8 East, and Sections 21, 22, 27 and 28, in Santa Fe County, New Mexico. (c) Size: The area within the permitted Landfill boundary is 495 acres. Within the permitted boundary the existing West Phase of the Landfill consists of approximately 87 acres of lined landfill used for disposal of MSW and C&D. The proposed East Phase lateral expansion is within the permitted boundary and will consist of approximately 54 additional acres of lined landfill area for disposal of MSW and C&D. (d) Quantities and Rate of Solid Waste: The Landfill currently receives about 450 to 500 tons of solid waste per day, but may receive more or less solid waste on a given day depending upon the volume of waste. The landfill will also accept the special wastes listed in (e) below. The estimated annual tonnage of each special waste to be received by the landfill is also included.

(a) Proceso general: El Relleno sanitario actualmente acepta residuos residenciales, comerciales, escombros de construcción y demolición (C&D por su sigla en inglés), residuos verdes y abono para compostaje, y dos tipos de residuos especiales (lodo y tierra contaminada con petróleo) según las definiciones de la Ley y el Reglamento. El Relleno sanitario recibe residuos sólidos de transportistas comerciales registrados y de transportistas autónomos. Los residuos sólidos son colocados y compactados en celdas revestidas que están protegidas por sistemas de control ambiental; que incluyen, entre otros, sistemas de recolección de lixiviados, revestimientos compuestos, sistema de control de gases del relleno sanitario y controles para la gestión de aguas pluviales. Al recibirse los últimos residuos sólidos, el Relleno sanitario se cubrirá con una cubierta final conforme al Reglamento. Los residuos especiales son procesados conforme al Reglamento correspondiente. Al final de cada día laboral, la superficie de trabajo del área de depósito de residuos sólidos municipales (MSW por su sigla en inglés) se cubre con un mínimo de seis pulgadas de tierra o una cubierta alternativa diaria como lo apruebe el NMED. El Relleno sanitario tiene también un programa de trituración y compostaje para desviar los residuos verdes y el abono del Relleno sanitario. Esta Solicitud de Renovación y Modificación del Permiso es para un vertedero único. (b) Ubicación: El Relleno sanitario está ubicado aproximadamente a 7 millas al oeste de la Ciudad de Santa Fe, en el Distrito Municipal (Township) 17 Norte, Zona (Range) 8 Este, y las Secciones 21, 22, 27 y 28, en el Condado de Santa Fe, Nuevo México. (c) Tamaño: La superficie incluida dentro de los límites del Relleno sanitario autorizado es de 495 acres. Dentro de los límites autorizados, la Fase Oeste existente del Relleno sanitario consta de aproximadamente 87 acres de relleno sanitario revestido para depósito de MSW y C&D. La ampliación lateral Fase Este propuesta se encuentra dentro de los límites autorizados y constará de aproximadamente 54 acres adicionales de superficie de relleno sanitario revestido para depósito de MSW y C&D. (d) Cantidad y frecuencia de los depósitos de residuos sólidos: El Relleno sanitario recibe actualmente alrededor de 450 a 500 toneladas de residuos sólidos por día, pero puede recibir más o menos residuos sólidos en determinados días según sea el volumen de residuos. El relleno sanitario también aceptará los residuos especiales que se detallan en el punto (e). También se incluye el tonelaje anual estimado para cada tipo de residuo especial que se recibirá en el relleno sanitario. (e) Tipos de residuos sólidos: El Relleno sanitario seguirá aceptando residuos sólidos, incluidos los siguientes residuos no peligrosos: Residuos sólidos municipales residenciales, residuos sólidos comerciales, y escombros de construcción y demolición.

(e) Types of Solid Wastes: The Landfill will continue to accept solid waste, including the following nonhazardous wastes: residential municipal solid waste, commercial solid waste, and construction and demolition debris. The Landfill will continue to accept sludge (1700 tons/year) and petroleum containing soils (360 tons/year), which are non-hazardous special wastes. In addition, the Landfill is requesting approval to dispose of the following non-hazardous special wastes: industrial solid waste (10 tons/year), spill of a chemical substance or commercial product (10 tons/year), treated formerly characteristic hazardous waste (1 ton/year) and vehicle wash sump waste (28 tons/year). (f) Description of the Modification: Permit modification is requested to obtain approval for disposal of four additional special wastes; to increase the final grade elevation of the West Phase 40 feet above the current permitted elevation (85 to 95 feet above ground level); to horizontally expand the current Landfill to the east, referred to as the East Phase increasing the lined landfill area by approximately 54 additional acres that extends 70 to 110 feet above ground level; to update the landfill management plans, closure/post-closure cost estimate, and related financial assurance; and to provide upgrades to the engineering plans that incorporate the most recent design philosophies and technologies. If approved in 2015, the permit would be granted until 2035. 4. Origin of Waste Currently, the Landfill only accepts waste originating within the City and County of Santa Fe as required by the Joint Powers Agreement between the City and County of Santa Fe. 5.

Cryptoquip

The Cryptoquip is a substitution cipher in which one letter stands for another. If you think that X equals O, it will equal O throughout the puzzle.

Teen feels forced into Confirmation

Dear Annie: I am 14 years old and facing a dilemma. My father isn’t particularly religious, but my mother is a strict Catholic, and my older sister and brother have been Confirmed. I have another six months before I am expected to go through the process of the sacrament of Confirmation. I do not want to do this. But as the time approaches, my mother has become increasingly forceful on the subject. I do not share my mother’s beliefs, although I do believe in God. My father supports my choice, and I’ve tried to explain it to my mother, but she won’t have any of it. She continues to send me to religious classes, which I consider a complete waste of my time, and it results in some very awkward conversations because I find myself hiding my beliefs. When I once refused to attend the classes, my mother threatened to call my school and have me taken off of student council and the soccer team. I know her stubbornness has other causes, including pleasing family members who are deeply religious and have always resented my father’s agnosticism. But time is running out, and Mom has only become more aggressive. If I resist, there will be huge consequences. I don’t feel I can take part in such an important religious event if I am not fully committed to it. I even talked to Mom about postponing it for a few years, which would be allowed in our diocese, but she rejected that idea. How can I convince her that she is being unreasonable? — Frustrated Son Dear Frustrated: You can’t. Your mother is in panic mode, frightened for your religious future and concerned that her family will disapprove of the way she raised you. Your best bet is to talk to your priest and ask him to intervene. While he is unlikely to support your decision not to be confirmed, he may be able to convince Mom that waiting is in everyone’s best interest, and she is

Tonight: Make nice over dinner. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You might feel as if you have to defer to someone else. You actually might be misreading the situation. Tonight: Go along with someone else’s suggestion. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Dive headfirst into whatever you must do, whether it involves working on a project or running errands. Tonight: Play it light and easy. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Your creativity will emerge as a result of a misunderstanding. You might need to keep the peace or at least distract others from what is happening. Tonight: Pretend it is still the weekend. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH You might be taken aback by your anxiety. You could feel very uptight about what is going on, more so than usual. Unknowingly, you might be responding to the planetary vibes. Tonight: Head home early. Jacqueline Bigar

Today in history Today is Monday, Dec. 16, the 350th day of 2013. There are 15 days left in the year. Today’s highlight in history: On Dec. 16, 1773, the Boston Tea Party took place as American colonists boarded a British ship and dumped more than 300 chests of tea into Boston Harbor to protest tea taxes.

Hocus Focus

more apt to listen to him. Dear Annie: I am a senior citizen with an issue regarding children who use the restroom without being educated or properly trained in etiquette. I have seen kids standing three feet from the toilet (because they are too short to use the urinal) and spraying the seat. This is not a competition to see how far away you can be and still hit the target. Some parents are concerned about germs and tell their kids not to touch the seat, so you can imagine the messes I have witnessed when using a public restroom. Also, please teach the child to flush after himself. I realize this is a particularly difficult issue for single mothers who can’t go into the men’s room with their sons. Please address this. — T.S. Dear T.S.: We appreciate your concern, and we hope parents are paying attention. However, we’re fairly certain that most parents already teach their sons how to use the toilet, because they don’t want to clean up a mess at home, either. Public restrooms pose difficulties because opposite-sex parents cannot supervise, and the kids can become either anxious or reckless. But not all accidents are caused by young children. Adults do their share, too. Dear Annie: Your response to “Concerned Cutter in N.Y.” to post a sign in his barbershop saying that cellphone use is prohibited while in the chair is good. I have a better one. There’s an old saying that time is money. It certainly takes more time to cut hair if the patron is chatting on a cellphone. How about posting a sign that says: Haircuts: $30; Haircuts While Using Cellphone: $50 The next time a customer chats, instead of being annoyed, the barber can say, “I just made another $20.” I doubt he would lose customers if he is lighthearted about it. — Benicia, Calif.
