Homicide suspected in S.F. woman’s death Autopsy of body found Friday revealed evidence of blunt force trauma; sheriff’s office investigating

By Robert Nott The New Mexican

The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the death of a 30-year old woman who was reported missing late Thursday as a homicide.

Duke City mayor’s mentality not helping

Investigators found the body of Julieanne Kelly, 30, on the northeast portion of her family’s property in the 2000 block of Callejon de Rita, off Rufina Street, during a follow-up visit Friday afternoon to see if she had returned home.

According to a news release issued by the sheriff’s office Sunday afternoon, the Office of the Medical Examiner conducted an autopsy Saturday and reported that Kelly had several lacerations on her upper torso and had suffered blunt force trauma.

The news release said Kelly’s father reported her missing late Thursday, and deputies first visited the house at about 2:30 a.m. Friday in response

to that report. Deputies searched the neighborhood and did not find her at that time. She had been seen last leaving the area on foot, wearing a gray jacket and black pants.

Neighbors who live on the street said deputies cordoned it off for much of Friday and Saturday. None of the residents knew the victim well,

The 2015 session

New Mexico bill meant to improve accountability

what the men and women on the front lines are doing. We’re not going to take away tools that they need to protect themselves.”

The debate in Missouri is expected to be intense.

On the opening day of the 2015 session, protesters laid down in the Capitol Rotunda and then temporarily shut down the Senate proceedings, chanting phrases such as “No justice, no peace.”

“It’s clear that our country needs to toughen up on some of its policies,” said one of the protest leaders, Waylon McDonald of St. Louis.

Lawmakers proposing to require officer cameras argue they would protect both officers and the people with whom they interact. There was no video evidence of the August confrontation between Brown and former Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson. Video shot by a bystander helped shape public opinion in the New York incident.

After a year of high-profile shootings that jarred the public, bills aimed at more supervision of police departments are flooding state legislatures across the country.

Missouri, for instance, has seen more than 40 bills introduced. New Mexico is not part of this trend so far, despite heavy scrutiny by taxpayers and the federal government of the Albuquerque Police Department.

To date, only one bill aimed at police departments across the state has been filed for New Mexico’s 60-day legislative session, which starts Tuesday.

State Rep. Patricia Roybal Caballero, D-Albuquerque, has revived a proposed constitutional amendment to increase the powers of citizen boards that review police conduct.

She first introduced the bill two years ago amid citizen complaints about brutality by Albuquerque police officers. The U.S. Department of Justice also investigated, and it concluded last year that the Albuquerque Police Department had a practice of using excessive force, including deadly force.

And last week, the district attorney in Albuquerque filed murder charges against two police officers who shot a 38-year-old homeless man in March 2014. The officers’ lawyers say the shooting was justified because the homeless man pulled out knives and could have killed an officer.

Thousands of Albuquerque residents, though, protested the killing as unnecessary violence after seeing the police department’s own video of the shooting.

Roybal Caballero’s bill would enable cities and counties to establish independent police review boards “with authority to investigate and resolve citizen complaints.”

Her pre-filed bill does not allow for these boards to have subpoena power, but she said she will amend

State legislatures throughout the U.S. see array of bills

By David A. Lieb

The Associated Press

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. ith legislatures convening across the country, lawmakers are moving quickly to respond to one of the biggest stories of the past year, the police killings of unarmed residents in Missouri, New York and elsewhere.

Scores of bills have been filed that would place more scrutiny on interactions between law officers and the public, and that would aim to address concerns about perceived racial injustice, police tactics and civil unrest.

In Missouri, lawmakers have filed more than 40 bills stemming from the fatal shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed black 18-year-old, by a white officer in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson. The debate over police conduct — and officer safety — also is expected to loom large in New York, following the police chokehold

death of Eric Garner and the subsequent shootings of two officers.

Lawmakers in at least a dozen states are proposing to mandate or expand the use of cameras attached to officers’ uniforms in an attempt to avoid disputes about exactly what happened during police conflicts with citizens. Other proposals would require more training for officers, tighter limits on using deadly force and the appointment of special investigators when police kill people.

Though some have bipartisan support, many of the proposals to curtail police powers are coming from Democratic lawmakers. Some Republicans have countered with proposals providing better police equipment and imposing stricter penalties for threatening officers.

“I want to address some of the underlying building blocks that have caused this,” said Missouri House Speaker John Diehl, a Republican from suburban St. Louis. But he added: “We’re not going into it with the assumption that we have to fix

Retention bill tops list of high-profile proposals

By Milan Simonich The New Mexican

Gov. Susana Martinez, now in her fifth year in office, has a legislative agenda that resembles her first one from 2011.

Martinez, a Republican, is again supporting a bill to retain thirdgraders who are not proficient on standardized reading tests. It will be among the high-profile proposals of the 60-day legislative session that begins Tuesday.

During her first year as governor, Martinez persuaded members of the

latant bullying is the latest tactic of Albuquerque Mayor Richard J. Berry’s administration now that two of his police officers have been charged with murder.

Berry’s staff declined to allow a senior member of the Bernalillo County District Attorney’s Office into a command briefing last week after police officers shot and killed a man.

This happened just one day after District AttorMilan ney Kari BranSimonich denburg filed Ringside Seat murder charges against two other Albuquerque officers in the March shooting of a mentally ill homeless man who had camped illegally on a mountainside.

Berry’s administration couldn’t have been clearer or more misguided in the message it sent in freezing out Brandenburg: Rock the boat by charging our officers with murder, and we throw you over the side. If you’re not backing us every time somebody complains about police brutality, we don’t want you around, even if you are the chief law enforcement officer of the county.

House of Representatives to approve a bill to hold back third-graders who score below par on reading tests. But that measure died in the Senate, and Democrats have Susana since increased Martinez their opposition to forced student retention.

Passing along ill-prepared thirdgraders, which Martinez calls “social promotion,” is a disservice to kids and taxpayers, the governor says.

Senate Democrats, though, say mandatory retention laws don’t help kids succeed academically and may actually hurt their progress.

Sen. Bill Soules, a teacher, says even researchers who have tried to vouch for mandatory retention programs cannot make a compelling case.

For instance, third-graders in Florida who were retained for low reading scores were required to attend summer school. After that, they were placed in the classroom of a “high-performing teacher,” and they received an extra 90 minutes of

Startups adopt new tools for banking, loans Sophisticated software can collect data to evaluate lending risk factor

By Steve Lohr The New York Times

SAN FRANCISCO hen bankers of the future decide whether to make a loan, they may look to see if potential customers use only capital letters when filling out forms, or at the amount of time they spend online reading terms and conditions — and not so much at credit history.

These signals about behavior — picked up by sophisticated software that can scan thousands of bits of data about online and offline lives — are the focus of a handful of trailblazing startups that are creating new models of lending.

No single signal is definitive, but each is a piece in a mosaic, a predictive picture, compiled by collecting an array of information from diverse sources, including household buying habits, bill-paying records and social network connections. It amounts to a digital-age spin on the most basic principle of banking: Know your customer.

“We’re building the consumer bank of the future,” said Louis Beryl, chief executive of Earnest, one of the new lenders.

And in that bank, whether a customer uses proper capitalization and spends time reading terms and conditions of a loan may make him or her more creditworthy.

Yet the technology is so new that the potential is unproved. Also, applying the modern techniques of data science to consumer lending raises thorny questions, especially for regulators who enforce anti-discrimination laws.

None of the new startups are consumer banks in the full-service sense of taking deposits. Instead, they are focused on transforming the economics of underwriting and the experience of consumer borrowing — and hope to make more loans available at lower cost for millions of Americans. Earnest uses the new tools to make personal loans. Affirm, another startup, offers alternatives to credit cards for online purchases. And another, ZestFinance, has focused on the relatively niche market of payday loans. In addition to the new lenders, there are pure data-analysis startups, like Hello Soda in Britain, which uses social network data to predict whether someone is a good risk.

They all envision consumer finance fueled by abundant information and clever software, as opposed to the traditional math of creditworthiness, which relies mainly on a person’s credit history.

The new technology, proponents say, can open the door to far more accurate assessments of creditworthiness. Better risk analysis, they say, will broaden the lending market and reduce the cost of borrowing.

“The potential is there to save millions of people billions of dollars,” said Rajeev V. Date, a venture investor and former banker, who also served as deputy director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Investors certainly see the potential; money and talent are flowing into this emerging market. Major banks, credit card companies and Internet giants are watching the upstarts and studying their techniques — and watching for the perils.

By law, lenders cannot discriminate against loan applicants based on race, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, age or the receipt of public assistance.

Big-data lending, though, relies on software algorithms working on their own and learning as they go.

The danger is that with so much data and so much complexity, an automated system is in control. The software could end up discriminating against certain racial or ethnic groups without being programmed to do so.

Even enthusiasts acknowledge that pitfall. “A decision is made about you, and you have no idea why it was done,” Date said. “That is disquieting.”

The data scientists focus on finding reliable correlations in the data rather than trying to determine why, for instance, proper capitalization may be a hint of creditworthiness.

“It is important to maintain the discipline of not trying to explain too much,” said Max Levchin, chief executive of Affirm. Adding human assumptions, he noted, could introduce bias into the data analysis.

POPE DRAWS RECORD CROWD OF 6 MILLION IN MANILA Pope Francis prays during a Sunday Mass at Rizal Park, in Manila, Philippines. Millions filled Manila’s main park and surrounding areas for Pope Francis’ final Mass in the Philippines, braving a steady rain to hear the pontiff’s message of hope and consolation for the Southeast Asian country’s most downtrodden and destitute. The pontiff flew out of this Catholic bastion in Asia on Monday after a weeklong trip that included a visit to Sri Lanka and drew what Filipino officials says was a record crowd of 6 million faithful in a Manila park where he celebrated Mass. President Benigno Aquino III, church leaders and 400 street children yelling ‘Pope Francis we love you’ saw him off at a Manila air base, where the pontiff, carrying a black travel bag, boarded a Philippine Airlines plane for a flight to Rome.

Jihad Mughniyeh, the son of Imad Mughniyeh, a top Hezbollah operative assassinated in 2008 in Damascus. Hezbollah blames Israel for the killing and has long vowed to avenge his death.

In brief

North Korean defector recants parts of his story Indonesia rejects foreign The best-known survivor of a North appeals, executes six Korean prison camp said Sunday that he was retracting central elements of his widely reported life story. Shin Dong Hyuk had become the most celebrated survivor of torture and other human rights abuse at a North Korean gulag. Most recently, he was a key witness for the Commission of Inquiry, an initiative started by the U.N. Human Rights Council in 2013. But in recent weeks, his credibility had been questioned by not only the North Korean government but also a growing number of human rights advocates and former North Korean political prison camp survivors.

Official: Israeli strikes in Syria kill at least five BEIRUT — An Israeli strike in Syria on Sunday killed the son of a slain top Hezbollah commander and at least five other fighters in a move that could ratchet up tensions with the powerful Lebanese Shiite movement, which recently boasted of rockets that can hit any part of the Jewish state.

Hezbollah militants in towns and villages along the border with Israel went on high alert, said an official from the group. In the Shiite-dominated areas of south Lebanon and Beirut, the streets emptied quickly as residents feared an escalation. Hezbollah-run al-Manar TV warned that Israel was “playing with fire that puts the security of the whole Middle East on edge.”

In a statement issued to the media, Hezbollah identified one of the six slain men as

JAKARTA, Indonesia — Indonesia brushed aside last-minute appeals by foreign leaders and executed by firing squad six people convicted of drug trafficking, including five foreigners, sending a message that the new government will not compromise its tough approach to narcotics.

Four men from Brazil, Malawi, Nigeria and the Netherlands and an Indonesian woman were shot to death simultaneously in pairs just after midnight Saturday, several miles from a high-security prison on Nusakambangan island. The other, a woman from Vietnam, was executed in Boyolali, according to Attorney General Office’s spokesman Tony Spontana. Both areas are in Central Java province.

Ukraine leader vows to control separatist east KIEV, Ukraine — Ukraine’s president vowed Sunday to reassert government control over eastern regions as the army unleashed a counter-offensive against Russian-backed separatist fighters vying for command over the airport in the city of Donetsk.

The separatist stronghold was shaken by intense outgoing and incoming artillery fire over the weekend as a bitter battle rages for the air terminal and surrounding areas.

Streets in Donetsk, which was home to 1 million people before unrest erupted in spring, were deserted Sunday and the windows of apartments in the center were rattled

Several gunshots were fired from a vehicle speeding by the home of Vice President Joe Biden in Greenville, Del., on Saturday night, according to federal law enforcement officials. The vice president and his wife, who were staying at the home over the weekend, were not there at the time of the shooting, the officials said. It was not clear whether any of the shots hit Biden’s residence, or even if they were aimed directly at the home, which sits roughly 300 yards back from the road, the officials said.

Alaska faces lean budget times as oil prices plunge JUNEAU, Alaska — After years of being flush with oil money, Alaska now faces drastic budget cuts and having to dip into wellstocked savings to offset unprecedented deficits exacerbated by an unexpected plunge in oil prices.

When lawmakers left Juneau last April, the price of North Slope crude, Alaska’s economic lifeblood, was $107 a barrel. On the eve of a new legislative session, starting Tuesday, the price had dropped by more than half.

Alaska heavily relies on oil revenue to fund the cost of state government, but the fall in prices has contributed to an estimated 80 percent decline in the state’s share of production taxes from last year.

The new governor, Republican-turnedindependent Bill Walker, is among those calling for a look at revenues along with budget cuts, but that could involve ideas that no one who dreams of re-election is eager to take up.

Lt. Gen. Abdul-Wahab al-Saadi, who led Iraqi soldiers to recapture the oil refinery city of Beiji, said his forces lack weapons, equipment and battle-ready troops. He also called U.S. air support erratic. Some Iraqi lawmakers say America provided greater help to the semiautonomous Kurdish regional government in northern Iraq at the expense of the rest of the country.

Despite that, Iraqi troops and militiamen have made slow gains against the militants in an area immediately north of Baghdad in heavy fighting. They and the Kurds also have been able to push Islamic State group fighters

out of parts of Diyala province on Baghdad’s northeast fringe.

Further north, Iraqi and Kurdish ground forces retook the Mosul Dam in August. Kurdish forces have waged another campaign along the Syrian border toward the town of Sinjar, which they have been trying to capture for weeks.

Islamic State group fighters, meanwhile, have been advancing in western Anbar province, the heartland of Sunni minority.

‘Selma’ stars march in tribute to MLK

By Kim Chandler The Associated Press

SELMA, Ala. — Oprah Winfrey, fellow actors from the movie Selma and hundreds of others marched to recall one of the bloodiest chapters of the civil rights movement on Sunday, the eve of the national holiday honoring Martin Luther King Jr. The remembrance comes after several incidents in which unarmed black men were killed by police in recent months, spurring protests and heightening tensions around the country.

In Ferguson, Mo., where one fatal shooting caused weeks of violent protests, leading black members of Congress pressed for further reforms of the criminal justice system in the name of equality.

Eight members of the Congressional Black Caucus joined U.S. Rep. William Lacy Clay at Wellspring United Methodist Church in Ferguson as they took up King’s legacy in light of the recent deaths.

“We need to be outraged when local law enforcement and the justice system repeatedly allow young, unarmed black men to encounter police and then wind up dead with no consequences,” said Clay, a St. Louis Democrat. “Not just in Ferguson, but over and over again across this country.”

In Selma, Winfrey marched with Selma director Ava DuVernay, actor David Oyelowo, who portrayed King in the movie, and the rapper Common. Winfrey was a producer on the film and had an acting role like Common. They marched to Selma’s Edmund Pettus Bridge, where civil rights protesters were beaten and tear-gassed in 1965.

“Every single person who was on that bridge is a hero,” Winfrey told the marchers before they walked up the bridge as the sun went down over the Alabama River. Common and John Legend performed their Oscarnominated song “Glory” from the film as marchers crested the top of the bridge amid the setting sun.

Winfrey said the marchers remember “Martin Luther King as an idea, Selma as an idea and what can happen with strategy, with discipline and with love.”

Winfrey played the civil rights activist Annie Lee Cooper in the movie, which was nominated for two Oscars, in categories of best picture and best original song.

“The idea is that hope and possibility is real,” Winfrey said afterward of the civil rights movement in Selma. “Look at what they were able to do with so little … If they could do that, imagine what now can be accomplished with the opportunity through social media and connection, the opportunity through understanding that absolutely we are more alike than we are different.”

Selma chronicled the campaign leading up to the historic march from Selma to Montgomery, Ala., and the subsequent passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act. Law enforcement officers

used clubs and tear gas on March 7, 1965 — “Bloody Sunday” — to rout marchers intent on walking some 50 miles to Montgomery, the Alabama capital, to seek the right for blacks to register to vote. A new march, led by King, started March 21 of that year and reached Montgomery days later with the crowd swelling to 25,000.

Today, the Selma bridge and adjoining downtown business district look much as they did in 1965, though many storefronts are empty and government buildings are occupied largely

by African American officials who are beneficiaries of the Voting Rights Act. “Fifty years ago Selma made history and changed the nation,” Selma Mayor George Evans said.

Onlookers in the crowd waved signs reading: “March On” and “VOTE.” Lisa Stevens brought her two children, ages 6 and 10, so they could walk the bridge that King walked. “I wanted to bring my children here so they can know their history and for them to participate in this walk,” said Stevens, who moved recently from New York to Greensboro, Ala. “It’s a part of their history and I think that they should know.

Being that we’re in the South now I want them to understand everything that is going on around them,” she said.

McLinda Gilchrist, 63, said the movie should help a younger generation understand life for those in the 1960s who opposed racial discrimination. “They treated us worse than animals,” Gilchrist said.

“It was terrifying,” recalled Lynda Blackmon Lowery, who still lives in Selma and was the youngest person to march there in 1965 as a teenager.

Now a 64-year-old mother and grandmother, she spoke Sunday in New York of a harrowing experience of unarmed marchers going up against rifles, billy clubs and fierce dogs of white officers. She has since written a memoir, Turning 15 on the Road to Freedom.

Other King events planned for Monday’s federal holiday include a wreath-laying in Maryland, a tribute breakfast in Boston and volunteer service activities by churches and community groups in Illinois.

In South Carolina, civil rights leaders readied for their biggest rally of the year.

And in Georgia, King’s legacy also was being celebrated at the church he pastored in Atlanta. The current pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church, the Rev. Raphael Warnock, said the annual King holiday is a time when “all of God’s children are busy spreading the message of freedom and justice.”

In the Sunday sermon, Professor James Cone of New York’s Union Theological Seminary urged Ebenezer’s congregation to celebrate the slain civil rights leader “by making a political and a religious commitment to complete his work of justice.”

He closed the service by leading singing of the civil rights anthem, “We Shall Overcome.”

Clubs and tear gas were used in 1965 to rout marchers intent on walking to the Alabama capital, to seek the right for blacks to register to vote. A later march, led by King, reached Montgomery, with the crowd swelling to 25,000.

the measure to add that authority.

“I want to give it more teeth, and that’s why subpoena powers are necessary.

There is a lack of transparency, a lack of accountability” in cases in which police use force, Roybal Caballero said in an interview.

She said she hopes that her bill will gain support. But she admitted that getting it through both houses of the Legislature so it can appear on the next statewide ballot will be difficult. The bill would need support from at least 36 of the 70 House members and 22 of the 42 senators, regardless of how many show up for the vote.

Across the country, and in Albuquerque, police officers typically have fought against inquiries by citizen review boards, sometimes at the urging of labor unions. As a result, that these boards often have been powerless.

The Department of Justice said Albuquerque’s Police Oversight Commission had no authority, even though its members were appointed by the mayor.

“The chief [of police] retains complete discretion over whether policy violations in fact occurred and whether officers should be disciplined,” the Department of Justice stated in its report on Albuquerque police.

Albuquerque city councilors are replacing the old Police Oversight Commission with a new nine-member panel that they say will be given more power to review police conduct. City councilors will appoint members to the new review board.

Under Roybal Caballero’s bill, the governing body of a city or county would use jury lists to staff a police review board.

“The jury list itself is a more open and representative sample of the public.

These are not political appointments,” Roybal Caballero said.

The state Senate majority leader, Sen. Michael Sanchez, D-Belen, said he would need to talk to Roybal Caballero to get a better understanding of her bill and whether it would improve oversight of police departments.

“The devil is in the details,” Sanchez

said. “When she talks about juries, what does that mean? A petit jury? A grand jury?”

Unlike New Mexico, other states are seeing a flurry of bills aimed at police conduct.

The Associated Press reported that legislators in Missouri have filed more than 40 bills inspired by the fatal shooting of Michael Brown, a black teenager who was unarmed. A white police officer in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson killed Brown.

Nationally, bills to improve police departments include a range of proposals. One calls for mandatory use of cameras attached to officers’ uniforms to provide a better record of when and why police used force. Another calls for hiring special investigators if police shoot and kill someone.

Bills: Lawmakers strive to protect public Continued from Page A-1 But one Democratic proposal to fund the cameras with a tax on handgun and ammunition sales is unlikely to pass in Missouri’s Republican-led Legislature, which recently cut taxes and strengthened gun rights.

Utah Gov. Gary Herbert, a Republican, said he supports a $500,000 request to buy cameras for all state troopers.

The proposal needs legislative approval.

In Rhode Island, the push to require police cameras is being led by Democratic Rep. Joseph S. Almeida, a former patrolman who co-founded the state’s minority police association. But privacy concerns are being raised by fellow Democratic Rep. Raymond Hull, who is a police sergeant in Providence.

“It’s not so much that I’m looking to protect the cops, I’m more interested in protecting the privacy of people when I’m in their home,” Hull said.

Bills pending in the New Jersey Assembly would create a task force on officer cameras and require local government approval before police agencies can get surplus military equipment. Police in Missouri were widely criticized for using armored vehicles to disperse people protesting Brown’s death.

In New York, Republicans have proposed equipping officers’ vehicles with bullet-proof glass, while Democrats have suggested various proposals, including promoting greater diversity in police ranks and the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate killings by police.

A woman protesting the police shooting of an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, Mo., holds a sign in the Senate gallery Jan. 7 during the opening of the Missouri Legislature in Jefferson City. Police killings of unarmed residents in Missouri, New York and elsewhere have prompted an array of proposals from newly-convening state legislatures seeking to place greater scrutiny on the interactions between law officers and the public. DON SHRUBSHELL/COLUMBIA DAILY TRIBUNE

Citizen review boards, which hear complaints about police conduct, date to the 1960s in some cities but are now being more widely pursued, including as a constitutional amendment in New Mexico.

Wisconsin enacted a law last year requiring an outside investigation into officerinvolved deaths. Similar pro-

posals are emerging elsewhere, including in Alabama and California, where thousands took to the streets to protest law enforcement killings of unarmed black men.

California Assemblyman Kevin McCarty, a Democrat, wants to create independent panels under the oversight of the state Department of Justice to investigate officer-involved

shootings. He said local prosecutors are often perceived as too close to law enforcement agencies to investigate them fairly.

“Is the current process fundamentally flawed and morally bankrupt? I don’t know. Could there be a better process that brings more public trust and independence?

Absolutely,” McCarty said.

Proposals: Martinez has familiar agenda Continued from Page A-1 push to repeal a 2003 law that allows New Mexico residents without proof of immigration status to obtain state driver’s licenses.

The House of Representatives approved similar bills favored by Martinez in 2011 and 2012, but they died in the Senate.

This year, Republicans are in control of the House for the first time since 1954, so the license repeal should easily clear that chamber.

Democratic state senators, however, traditionally have closed ranks to stop Martinez’s repeal bills.

In addition, a number of other states have approved laws similar to New Mexico’s that grant driving privileges to residents without proof of immigration status. They include Colorado, California and Illinois.

Most Democrats in the Senate say public safety improves when drivers are licensed and listed in police databases.

Then people who are involved in an accident will take responsibility, not flee, they say.

Another argument by proponents of the licensing law is that foreign nationals are critical to certain parts of New Mexico’s economy.

For instance, about 98 percent of the workers who harvest the state’s green chile are Mexican nationals, said Eddie Diaz of Diaz Farms in Deming. Without these laborers, New Mexico’s most famous crop would not get from farm to market.

“A certain percentage of the field hands do have their [driver’s] license,” Diaz said

in a phone interview.

Another part of the debate may focus on the federal Real ID Act. Those who want to repeal New Mexico’s licensing law say it’s a necessary step to comply with the federal law. But deadlines for Real ID have regularly been pushed back, and more than a dozen states, including Arizona, have passed laws saying they will not accept the federal law.

Here are other bills of note: u Democrats have introduced three proposals to cap interest and fees on loans.

They say predatory lenders are charging exorbitant rates to people in desperate need of money.

More than 680 small-loan businesses operate in New Mexico, a total greater than the number of fast-food restaurants in the state, said Steve Fischmann, a former Democratic state senator who now is with the New Mexico Fair Lending Coalition. He says these loan companies are charging interest rates of 80 percent to 3,000 percent.

Fischmann said in an interview that his organization would support a cap of 36 percent on interest rates. He said that number is still too high, but his organization is backing a figure that it believes could clear the Legislature.

Caps of 36 percent have become a widespread reform rate on loans, but Arkansas has a cap of 17 percent and New York is at 25 percent, Fischmann said. u Two Democrats, Rep. Luciano “Lucky” Varela of Santa Fe and Sen. Clemente Sanchez of Grants have filed bills to raise the statewide minimum wage of $7.50 an hour.

Martinez vetoed a $1 increase in the

minimum wage two years ago, saying $8.50 an hour was too big a jump. She would have supported $7.80 at the time.

Santa Fe, Albuquerque and Las Cruces already have minimum wages higher than the state’s. u Republican Rep. Jim Smith of Sandia Park is sponsoring a bill to require identification to vote. He says it is far less onerous than previous voter ID bills that Democrats have killed on grounds that they would make it harder for older people and low-income people to vote.

Smith’s bill would allow expired driver’s licenses to be used for voter identification.

In addition, members of federally recognized Indian tribes could use identification cards or letters of enrollment that do not have photos.

Still, opposition is likely to be heavy.

Democrats in the Legislature say inperson voter fraud is rare, and voter identification bills would be expensive to implement. u Sen. Sander Rue has drafted a bill sure to bring a showdown with public employee unions. Rue, R-Albuquerque, proposes to change the bargaining act to prohibit payroll deductions of union dues.

Other Republicans are sponsoring a bill to bar compulsory membership in unions. u Rep. Bill McCamley, D-Mesilla Park, has introduced a bill to eliminate the state’s restrictions on the sale of alcoholic beverages on Christmas Day and Sundays.

Grama EL NUEVO MEXICANO Cuca ‘agarra La verdad sobre la ‘obesidad saludable’ su’ GED H U CHICAGO e aquí una fría dosis de realidad para los que tratan de convencerse de que sus excesivas libras no los perjudicarán: Contradiciendo investigaciones de 2013, que conectaban el peso extra con un riesgo inferior de mortalidad, la “obesidad saludable” no existe.

En enero de ese año, el Journal of the American Medical Association publicó un estudio de diversas investigaciones, que halló que los individuos con un índice de masa corporal entre 25 y 30 — que se considera como sobrepeso — tienen un 6 por ciento menos de riesgo de muerte que aquellos cuyo IMC está en la gama “normal,” es decir entre 18.5 y 25.

Libro ofrece una historia compleja de migración Por Carlos Vargas Para The New Mexican

H

ay historias que se leen y otras, que por su complejo valor humano, terminan escribiéndonos a nosotros.

Manuel of the Américas: Historia de Fuertes Amores, por David Roybal, nativo de Nuevo México y destacado editor y periodista, reside en esta segunda categoría. Seguir los pasos de Manuel Rodríguez es una labor sustanciosa.

Explorar la humanidad de Manuel, a través de sus acciones y circunstancias culmina en muchas ocasiones en una abstracción interna, donde el compás del protagonista nos marca un norte moral y humano. Conocer la historia de Manuel Rodríguez es conocer la historia del migrante que mueve montañas afianzado en su fe y ética de trabajo. También es conocer la historia de muchas jóvenes mujeres que asumen total responsabilidad de familias enteras mientras sus esposos laboran en espacios insondables al otro lado de la frontera.

Manuel of the Américas presenta desde su incepción una dicotomía que asoma de diferentes maneras, tanto en su temática como en la dualidad de lenguas en que se presenta la historia. Manuel no es exclusivamente una historia sobre migración; Manuel es una historia sobre la vida en la que la migración es sólo una etapa. El libro, sin embargo, presenta una necesaria vista panorámica y humana de la migración mexicana a los Estados Unidos, explorando las circunstancias que le preceden y le siguen. La historia, sin buscarlo, brinda profundidad necesaria a una temática migratoria actual unilateral y simplista ya que la migración en Manuel es un proceso no un suceso. El libro, sin embargo, no teme adentrarse en el viaje para desmenuzar una experiencia fronteriza tan única, tan personal, y a la vez tan común en la literatura de su género.

La biografía bilingüe es narrada con maestría y leerla es transportarse a Guayabitos, el pueblo de Nayarit con vista a la bahía y a o unos 70 millas al norte de Jalisco donde se desarrolla la mayoría de la historia. Con coloridas y agudas pinceladas, Manuel retrata un entorno real, casi fotográfico, recuperando detalles sin escatimar el

Manuel of the Américas: His-toria de Fuertes Amores, por David Roybal. FOTO CORTESÍA

más mínimo esfuerzo, sin conformarse con descripciones generalizantes y sin hacerlo a expensas de exploraciones internas, las cuales domina e incorpora sutilmente. Una descripción geográfica de la Riviera Nayarit, “un maravilloso espacio de casi 200 millas entre Vallarta y Tepic, la capital de Nayarit,” puede enlazar fácilmente con un comentario cargado de deleite ideológico, “Esto se convierte en un nido para americanos de distintas nacionalidades,” todo parte de una transición fluida que hace a la lectura amena y sustanciosa, reflejando una realidad social poco explorada en la literatura norteamericana.

La dualidad del libro se manifiesta también en su presentación. Manuel es una biografía completamente bilingüe aunque es notable mencionar que el texto en español más que una traducción, es un reflejo de la compleja narrativa del autor. La inclusión de ambas versiones en el mismo libro refuerza la presencia de dos mundos en la vida de la Familia Rodríguez, ambos realizados con intimidad de detalles pero siempre sobre un eje y sin caer en la narración obsesiva.

La riqueza de esta edición bilingüe conlleva grandes promesas didácticas y culturales.

Manuel de las Américas tiene propósito, y resulta difícil leer el libro sin llevarse algo de Manuel Rodríguez consigo.

La honestidad de su mensaje resuena en el siguiente pasaje que encapsula su experiencia de aprendizaje y migración: “Salí con la cerveza pero se me olvidó mi cambio. Fue más tarde ese día cuando fui a pagar por algo más en otra tienda que me di cuenta que había dejado más de 400 pesos en la tienda cuando me dieron la cerveza.

Y me negué a regresar. Es terrible ser tan irresponsable. De una forma o de otra, sabía que me tenía que enseñar a mí mismo a ser mejor.” Manuel rebosa en momentos de introspección, de fría y refrescante sinceridad y fortaleza. Leer su historia es leernos a nosotros mismos, es profesar nuestros m uertes amores. Adentrarse en fu u laa historia de Manuel — el ir y venir entre lenguas, culturas, v fronteras, experiencias — nos invita a una lectura hacia el centro de nuestras propias memorias, vivencias y logros como migrantes, sin olvidar jamás lo que dejamos atrás.

na tarde Grama Cuca and Canutito were sitting en la cocina eating vanilla ice cream. El ice cream de vainilla tenía chocolate syrup con peanuts y un poco de whipped cream también. Canutito had even put un cherry colorão on top de su pila de ice cream. Just as they were en el medio de su afternoon treat, Grampo Caralampio came in from la acequia where he had been cortando branches de una jara all afternoon.

Grampo hizo toss sus dusty old guantes arriba del freezer y luego he turned away from his Larry Torres gloves y le Growing up preguntó a Spanglish grama, “¿Me treateas con un poco de ice cream a mí también?”

“The Spanish word for ‘to treat’ no es ‘treatear’,” grama said, as she scooped up más ice cream in another charola para grampo. “To treat somebody es ‘convidar’.”

“Bueno pues,” Grampo Caralampio said eying his bowl of ice cream. “¿Me convidas con un poco de ice cream? … and be sure to ponerle syrup de chocolate con pinates y nata on top too.”

Grama Cuca was just about to tell grampo que los “peanuts” no eran “pinates” but “cacahuates” cuando he plopped down en la silla and scattered polvo from his hat on top of el ice cream.

“I’m glad que I got married con una mujer who was murre educada,” grampo said to Canutito. “I think que si tu grama had gone to college, ella fuera una scientist o algo like that.”

“For reals, grama?” Canutito asked her, as he licked su cuchara.

“Could you have been una scientist o algo como una profesora?”

“I doubt it, m’hijo,” Grama Cuca replied. “Para ir al colegio I would have had to graduar del high school primero. Yo no hize graduate, e hize drop out porque I got married to your grampo instead.”

“Why did you drop out en vez de hacer graduate, grama?” Canutito asked.

“Why do you think, m’hijo?”

Grampo Caralampio answered back quickly. “Tu grama se casó conmigo porque she wanted a glamorous life y yo era todo handsome and I had vacas y un rancho and she didn’t want to estudiar home-ecomomix.”

“La clase era home economics, no ‘home-ecomomix’,” grama corrected him.

“It was the only class que me faltó in order to graduar.”

“Why don’t you just go back pa’la escuela and finish la clase de home economics, grama?” Canutito asked her as he put his dirty charola en el sink.

“I’m already too old to do that,” Grama Cuca replied. “How would I look en el medio de todas las young girls y yo, más vieja que la luna?”

“You could still get your degree del high school, grama,” Canutito continuó.

“You could hacer apply to get your GED, tu Graduate Equivalency Diploma. You could tomar la clase right here en casa y completar todo in a few weeks.”

“Go for it, Cuca,” Grampo Caralampio egged her on. “Si haces graduate, te algo un reception y hasta compro los potato chips y los dill pickles.”

A teacher could also be “cold calling,” which means asking questions of students who don’t raise their hands and are less likely to have paid attention. “Be aware, though,” Lemov says, “that it’s important not to limit your cold call only to when you check for understanding. You want to cold call before — and frequently — so that you normalize it, and students aren’t surprised when you use cold call as part of your targeted questions.”

The teacher points out errors, but more importantly creates a culture in which students are praised for confessing their own errors. That makes it much easier and quicker to determine which students are wrong and why, essential to helping everyone understand, Lemov says.

Lemov told me he was motivated to write the second book by seeing teachers take the ideas of the first book and make “them more rigorous and better than what I imagined … .

Getting kids to read: Choice is key Children who pick books they want more likely to be ‘voracious’ readers, study says

By Max Ehrenfreund The Washington Post

s a treat for Hanukkah last month, Sandra Stotsky took her grandchildren to the New England Mobile Book Fair in Newton, Mass. They were wandering around aimlessly. The store in a suburb of Boston has 32,000 square feet of books, but the kids had no favorite authors, nothing they’d been longing to read.

Stotsky, a self-described “professional Jewish grandmother,” had plenty of suggestions. After all, she’d written the educational standards for Massachusetts public schools, which were widely regarded as the best in the country until 2010, when they were replaced with the Common Core. She was appalled when one of her granddaughters eventually picked Catching Fire, the second book in the Hunger Games trilogy.

The book, Stotksy said, was too easy, and in any case, she didn’t think it conveyed the values that she wanted her grandkids to grow up on. “This isn’t what grandma is getting you for Hanukkah,” Stotsky recalled telling her.

Stotsky’s experience illustrates a broader debate among experts about childhood reading: whether students should be allowed to read what they like, or whether they should be encouraged to read specific books — ones that are challenging and edifying, books that will make them into better readers.

The latest salvo comes from a survey released late last week by Scholastic Corp., a publisher of popular children’s books, which suggests that middle and high school students who have time to read books of their own choosing during the school day are also more likely to read frequently for pleasure.

“For us, choice is key,” said Kyle Good, a spokeswoman for Scholastic. “When you let kids choose the books they want to read, they’ll be voracious readers.”

In the survey, 78 percent of students, who

read frequently for fun (at least five days a week), said they had time to read a book of choice during the school day. By contrast, 24 percent of infrequent readers — those who read for fun less than one day a week — said they had time to read a book of choice during the school day.

So students who read frequently were three times more likely than those who read infrequently to say that they had time to read a book of their choice during school. That suggests that, for teens, there’s a solid relationship between reading often and having a choice about what you’re reading.

More broadly, it could be that the only time older children have for reading for fun is dedicated time during the school day. Overall, only 26 percent of kids ages 12 and 14 and only 14 percent between ages 15 and 17 said they read for fun at least five days a week.

But it could also be that when children are encouraged to pick out their own books and spend time reading them, they are reminded that reading is something they enjoy doing — and that makes them more likely to spend

time doing it outside of school.

For decades, researchers have been suggesting that a little structured fun with books can help kids learn to appreciate them, and that kids who like to read tend to become better readers. This research has led many in teaching to advocate for free reading during the school day.

A recent study showed that children’s feelings about reading in second and third grade predicted how well they would perform on reading tests when they were in seventh grade, regardless of how well they read when they were younger.

Meanwhile, the Scholastic survey — like one or two others — shows that kids today are less likely to read for fun. Thirty-one percent of children ages 6-17 said they read for fun at least five days a week, compared to 37 percent in 2010. The decline was especially pronounced among boys and older children, who already read for fun less frequently.

How finances factor into financial aid calculations

By Danielle Douglas-Gabriel The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — It’s 103 questions that could make all the difference in how you pay for college. Yet every year families shy away from filling out the form known as the FAFSA, which the government and colleges use to determine need- and some merit-based financial aid.

A lot of parents get tripped up thinking they make too much money to receive any assistance in paying for college. About a third of families making over $100,000 didn’t bother to fill out the FAFSA last year, according to a recent Sallie Mae survey, significantly lowering the chances of their kids receiving grants and scholarships. But that’s a shame, considering that 16 percent of high-income families received an average $6,580 in grants last year, the survey said.

January marks the first month that families can submit the FAFSA (short for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid). And the sooner you get it in, the better your chances of qualifying for more money, as some states award aid on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Now, for the most important question: How do colleges and the government figure out how much aid you need based on your finances? The process can look like a mystery from the outside. But there are guidelines that everyone follows, and some of them might surprise you. Below are a few scenarios to help illustrate how the financial aid officers will be looking at your forms.

Big house and hefty retirement savings: Surprise, the value of your house or your retirement savings is not counted in financial aid calculations. It might sound counter-intuitive, but a family with an expensive house has just as good a shot of getting aid as one with a modest home, all other things being equal.

Officials at the Education Department explain that the government doesn’t want parents to draw down their 401k or IRA plans, nor sell their homes, to pay for college. The government also doesn’t count the value of your insurance policies. However, it will use the value of second homes, rental property, stocks (outside of a 401k or IRA) and cash savings to determine your family contribution.

With that in mind, families may want to consider moving money from a CD or stocks outside a retirement account into a 401k or IRA a year or two before sending a child off to college. (Don’t get too creative, though, because the IRS is paying attention.)

The government typically excludes any assets of families with income below $50,000. For everyone else, there is another calculation that takes into account the parents’ age and marital status — older, married parents fare the best.

Six-figure salary: As a general rule of thumb, your income matters much more than your assets in the government’s calculations, said Mark Kantrowitz, publisher of Edvisors.com, a college planning website.

So if you’re making a six-figure salary, you can probably expect less help.

Even so, there are at least two other big factors that could help you qualify for need-based aid. Families get a break if they have other kids currently in college, or entering at the same time. Your odds of getting aid are also higher if your child is eyeing a pricey private school, rather than a cheaper in-state public university. That’s because the government calculates that your contribution won’t go as far towards a more expensive college.

Families making less than $25,000 have their expected contribution automatically set at zero, which means their college-bound student would be eligible for the maximum amount of federal grant funding.

Money stashed away in a college savings plan: There is a popular misconception that the more you’ve saved in a 529 college savings plan, the less aid you’ll receive. But that’s not true.

Let’s say you have a 529 account worth $40,000.

Only about $2,000 of that would actually count towards what the government expects you to pay.

Again, your income matters far more than whatever you’ve been carefully stashing into a 529.

Ruby, a former financial aid officer at St. Olaf College in Minnesota, points out that 529 plans for siblings must be reported on the FAFSA. Sibling plans, she said, are treated like any other parent asset.

Plans owned by grandparents or other relatives do not have to be reported, but any money your child receives from those accounts must be included.

Financial experts recommend that families wait until a student’s final year in school to withdraw money from a 529 plan owned by a grandparent to lessen the impact on financial aid.

Student with a part-time job: Your kid’s afterschool job at Target may be great for pocket change, but depending on how much he makes it could count against him in the FAFSA. “Student income is assessed more harshly than parent income,” said Kantrowitz, author of Filing the FAFSA. The government believes that “student income and assets are there for one purpose only, which is to pay for college. Parent assets and income are there for other purposes.”

The government excludes any student income below $6,310, but students are expected to contribute 50 percent of any money above that threshold. If your child lands a work-study job once in college, he won’t have to worry about that gig being counted in financial aid calculations.

For a really clear sense of how your finances would fare before you fill out the form, check out the Department of Education’s FAFSA4caster to get an estimate of your eligibility for aid. Applications for the 2015-16 academic year are now available at www.fafsa.ed.gov.

Ocean on edge of destruction Aquatic wildlife faces mass extinction, broad study says

By Carl Zimmer The New York Times

A

team of scientists, in a groundbreaking analysis of data from hundreds of sources, has concluded that humans are on the verge of causing unprecedented damage to the oceans and the animals living in them.

“We may be sitting on a precipice of a major extinction event,” said Douglas J. McCauley, an ecologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara, an author of the new research, which was published Thursday in the journal Science.

But there is still time to avert catastrophe, McCauley and his colleagues also found. Compared with the continents, the oceans are mostly intact, still wild enough to bounce back to ecological health.

“We’re lucky in many ways,” said Malin L. Pinsky, a marine biologist at Rutgers University and another author of the new report. “The impacts are accelerating, but they’re not so bad we can’t reverse them.”

Scientific assessments of the oceans’ health are dogged by uncertainty: It’s much harder for researchers to judge the well-being of a species living underwater, over thousands of miles, than to track the health of a species on land. And changes that scientists observe in particular ocean ecosystems may not reflect trends across the planet.

Pinsky, McCauley and their colleagues sought a clearer picture of the oceans’ health by pulling together data from an enormous range of sources, from discoveries in the fossil record to statistics on modern container shipping, fish catches and seabed mining. While many of the findings already existed, they were never juxtaposed in such a way.

A number of experts said the result was a remarkable synthesis, along with a nuanced and encouraging prognosis.

“I see this as a call for action to close the gap between conservation on land and in the sea,” said Loren McClenachan of Colby College, who was not involved in the study.

There are clear signs already that humans are harming the oceans to a remarkable degree, the scientists found. Some ocean species are certainly overharvested, but even greater damage results from large-scale habitat loss, which is likely to accelerate as technology advances the human footprint, the scientists reported.

Coral reefs, for example, have declined by 40 percent worldwide, partly as a result of climatechange-driven warming.

Some fish are migrating to cooler waters already.

Black sea bass, once most common off the coast of Virginia, have moved up to New Jersey. Less fortunate species may not be able to find new ranges.

At the same time, carbon emissions are altering the chemistry of seawater, making it more acidic.

“If you cranked up the aquarium heater and dumped some acid in the water, your fish would not be very happy,” Pinsky said. “In effect, that’s what we’re doing to the oceans.”

Fragile ecosystems like mangroves are being replaced by fish farms, which are projected to provide most of the fish we consume within 20 years.

floor have already affected 20 million square miles of ocean, turning parts of the continental shelf to rubble. Whales may no longer be widely hunted, the analysis noted, but they are now colliding more often as the number of container ships rises.

Mining operations, too, are poised to transform the ocean. Contracts for seabed mining now cover 460,000 square miles underwater, the researchers found, up from zero in 2000. Seabed mining has the potential to tear up unique ecosystems and introduce pollution into the deep sea.

The oceans are so vast that their ecosystems may seem impervious to change. But McClenachan warned that the fossil record shows that global disasters have wrecked the seas before.

“Marine species are not immune to extinction on a large scale,” she said.

Until now, the seas largely have been spared the carnage visited on terrestrial species, the new analysis also found.

The fossil record indicates that a number of large animal species became extinct as humans arrived on continents and islands. For example, the moa, a giant bird that once lived on New Zealand, indicates it was wiped out by arriving Polynesians in the 1300s, probably within a century.

But it was only after 1800, with the Industrial Revolution, that extinctions on land really accelerated.

Humans began to alter the habitat that wildlife depended on, wiping out forests for timber, plowing under prairie for farmland, and laying down roads and railroads across continents.

Species began going extinct at a much faster pace. Over the past five centuries, researchers have recorded 514 animal extinctions on land. But the authors of the new study found that documented extinctions are far rarer in the ocean.

Before 1500, a few species of seabirds are known to have vanished. Since then, scientists have documented only 15 ocean extinctions, including animals such as the Caribbean monk seal and the

Steller’s sea cow.

While these figures are likely underestimates, McCauley said that the difference was nonetheless revealing.

“Fundamentally, we’re a terrestrial predator,” McCauley said. “It’s hard for an ape to drive something in the ocean extinct.”

Many marine species that have become extinct or are endangered depend on land — seabirds that nest on cliffs, for example, or sea turtles that lay eggs on beaches.

Still, there is time for humans to halt the damage, McCauley said, with effective programs limiting the exploitation of the oceans. The tiger may not be salvageable in the wild — but the tiger shark may well be, he said.

“There are a lot of tools we can use,” he said.

“We better pick them up and use them seriously.”

McCauley and his colleagues argue that limiting the industrialization of the oceans to some regions could allow threatened species to recover in other ones.

“I fervently believe that our best partner in saving the ocean is the ocean itself,” said Stephen R. Palumbi of Stanford University, an author of the new study.

The scientists also argued that these reserves had to be designed with climate change in mind, so that species escaping high temperatures or low pH would be able to find refuge.

“It’s creating a hopscotch pattern up and down the coasts to help these species adapt,” Pinsky said.

Ultimately, Palumbi warned, slowing extinctions in the oceans will mean cutting back on carbon emissions, not just adapting to them.

“If by the end of the century we’re not off the business-as-usual curve we are now, I honestly feel there’s not much hope for normal ecosystems in the ocean,” he said. “But in the meantime, we do have a chance to do what we can. We have a couple decades more than we thought we had, so let’s please not waste it.”

“ I fervently believe that our best partner in saving the ocean is the ocean itself.”

Richard Lowenberg, executive director of the 1st-Mile Institute, a nonprofit organization that conducts community-oriented broadband research and education, said he has been interested in the subject since the ’70s. “There is too much noise to signal and very little appropriate work,” he said. “Like the climate discussion, there is a lot of counterfactual information and anytime you say something, some obscure finding can be raised to contradict it.”

Lowenberg said that the future of broadband depends on coordinated research at both the microscopic, cellular level and at the macroscopic, environmental level.

“Nobody is looking at electromagnetic environment as a part of our ecosystem, not as a whole system,” he said, which is why he has proposed an exemplary project called “Mapping the Information EcoSystem of the Colorado Plateau,” to get a grip on the major issues in the Four Corners region before they run away on their own.

The Santa Fe Wi-Fi community has been inspired by the latest surge of interest in electromagnetic hypersensitivity. The latest article on Green Bank was posted on the group’s email list and drew some sympathetic comments.

“I just think it’s wonderful that there’s a place where electrosensitive people can find solace,” said

Jane Hill, owner of Cyber Mesa Telecom, a Santa Fe Internet provider.

Steve Ross, an editor at Broadband Communities Magazine, cited a dearth of double blind challenge tests that support electrosensitivity, but he was also “willing to bet there are some people who are sensitive to some frequencies.”

Medical literature typically aims at helping a physician cope with patients who report symptoms associated with radio waves. Some medical professionals are said to acknowledge the phenomenon of hypersensitivity, but others believe it is psychosomatic or fictitious.

An abstract of an article by S.J Genuis at the University of Alberta, Canada, in the journal Science of Total Environment, reports, “Electromagnetic hypersensitivity: fact or fiction? Various organizations, including the World Health Organization as well as some nation states are carefully exploring this clinical phenomenon in order to better explain the rising prevalence of non-specific, multi-system, often debilitating symptoms” associated with the electromagnetic exposure.

The author concludes that the literature is sparse and the condition perplexing.

Death: Neighbors surprised Continued from Page A-1 although several said she would wave to them as she drove by.

They did not know if she had a job or was attending college.

“They pretty much stayed to themselves,” one Callejon de Rita resident said of Kelly and her father. “I heard she was taking care of her father.”

Another neighbor, who also did not want to be identified, said he was thrown by the news of Kelly’s death. “If it’s thieving, that’s not shocking. That happens a lot in our backyards,” he said. “A death like that though is a big surprise.” He said the Kellys have lived on the street for about 20 years.

The neighbor said he did not hear anything unusual in the neighborhood the night Kelly disappeared. He said he heard her body was found behind a shed on the property.

Another neighbor said the victim’s father is a Vietnam veteran who had been complaining recently about people climbing over the back fence of his property.

Charlie Gonzales, who lives on the corner of Callejon de Rita and Agua Fría Street, said it is a neighborhood where “we try and watch out for each other.”

Callejon de Rita is a dirt, pothole-littered street lined with houses and trailers surrounded by high walls and fences bearing “No Trespassing” and “Neighborhood Watch” signs. One sign reads, “No Trespassing. Violators will be shot and survivors shot twice.” German shepherds and pit bulls live at and guard many of the properties.

Juan Rios, public information officer for the sheriff’s office, said Sunday that he had no additional information on the investigation as it is ongoing.

The sheriff’s office asks that anyone with information call 428-3720.

On Friday, the Public Education Department stepped back, sending a follow-up memo “offering additional flexibility” for districts and school leaders.

It now allows them to request a one-year extension on any Level 1 teacher deemed ineffective or minimally effective.

The rules regarding Level 2 teachers remain the same and include the provision that they earn at least 50 percent of possible points on their evaluation and submit a professional dossier, which costs $320.

“I am glad the second memo came out,” National Education Association-New Mexico President Betty Patterson said Sunday. “It does give us a year

to work on this problem with evaluations. Hopefully, we can find some answers within this year of extension.”

The teacher evaluation plan, which Martinez initiated by executive rule in 2012, relies heavily on student test scores and classroom observations to determine whether teachers are “ineffective,” “minimally effective,” “effective,” “highly effective” or “exemplary.”

At that time, the state assured teachers it would not use the system to fire them and said the decision to do so would remain in the hands of local districts.

Ringside: Berry can bring end to misconduct, if he cares to Every police shooting has to be judged on its own set of facts. Neither Brandenburg nor anybody else ought to assume that an officer is in the wrong because other cops have cracked heads when they simply could have snapped on the handcuffs.

Police, like the people they arrest, deserve a presumption of innocence. That said, they should not be immune from prosecution in criminal court just because they’re cops.

If Berry is committed to cleaning up his police department, he cannot exclude Brandenburg from the supposedly thorough investigations of officer-involved shootings that he promised the Department of Justice.

There are some good police officers in Albuquerque, and what’s happening is especially tough on them. They know that many of their co-workers have a well-deserved reputation for being anything but peace officers. More important, good police know they are accountable to the public.

They expect scrutiny from prosecutors.

But if Berry and his staff continue to take a bunker mentality against Branden-

Continued from Page A-1 police shootings, it is Albuquerque. The U.S. Department of Justice said last year that Albuquerque’s police department has a pattern of using unnecessary force, including deadly force. The city then promised reforms and improvements in a legal settlement with the Department of Justice.

Albuquerque police have been involved in some three dozen shootings since 2010.

Many were so questionable that the federal government finally intervened. Brandenburg and then-state Attorney General Gary King wasted years doing nothing about police abuses.

Critics of Brandenburg said she was part of the festering problem. Now, cops on the beat and the suits in City Hall argue that she has a conflict in reviewing police cases because she is trying to convict two officers of murder.

Like her or not, and many police do not, Brandenburg has a job in which she is supposed to make independent findings, not necessarily agree with Berry or his officers.

burg, nothing will improve.

Sunshine is the best disinfectant for the Albuquerque Police Department. So Berry and his staff need to re-establish a working relationship with the district attorney.

If she can’t make her case against the two officers she’s charged with murder, police can gloat all they want.

They shouldn’t, though, because there’s nothing to celebrate, no matter how this case ends. The shooting death of the homeless camper, James Boyd, was an unnecessary tragedy.

Berry has been in charge for five years, a period in which police shootings and abuses have caused the public to lose confidence in his officers.

Now Berry’s police department wants to run roughshod over the district attorney. He can stop the latest misconduct, if he cares to.

Man robs store on Osage Avenue

Police search for missing teenager

Police are seeking a man, possibly armed, who robbed a Santa Fe convenience store Sunday evening.

The suspect, whose image was captured by the store’s video surveillance system, robbed Los Panchitos Mini Mart, 1310 Osage Ave., at 5:23 p.m. He fled the store on foot with an undetermined amount of cash.

The man appears to be white, about 5-foot-6 to 5-foot-8, with a slender build and facial hair that may be blond. He was wearing a long-sleeved green jacket.

Witnesses reported seeing what looked like the black handle of a gun in the man’s waistband.

According to Lt. Andrea Dobyns of the Santa Fe Police Department, the suspect does not match the description of any other known robbery suspects.

“We haven’t seen anyone who looks like that on a surveillance video,” she said.

An employee who answered the phone Sunday night said, and police confirmed, that no one

The Santa Fe Police Department is looking for information on a 15-year-old Santa Fe girl who ran away from the Sangre de Cristo Apartment complex on Espinacitas Street early Saturday morning after telling her guardian that no one cares what happens to her.

Angelina Alejandra Calles has dark hair and a tattoo of three roses on her upper left arm. She was wearing a pink shirt, black pants and a black leather jacket and was carrying a white pit bull puppy when she left. She later texted her guardian to say she just needed to get away and think, according to the police report.

Anyone with information on her whereabouts can call the department’s dispatch line at 428-3710.

COMMENTARY: TOM HANKS

A junior college was my Sorbonne I n 1974, I graduated from Skyline High School in Oakland, Calif., an underachieving student with lousy SAT scores. Allowed to send my results to three colleges, I chose MIT and Villanova, knowing such fine schools would never accept a stuTom Hanks dent like me but hoping they’d toss some car stickers my way for taking a shot. I couldn’t afford tuition for college anyway. I sent my final set of stats to Chabot, a community college in nearby Hayward, Calif., which, because it accepted everyone and was free, would be my alma mater.

For thousands of commuting students, Chabot was our Columbia, Annapolis, even our Sorbonne, offering courses in physics, stenography, auto mechanics, certified public accounting, foreign languages, journalism — name the art or science, the subject or trade, and it was probably in the catalog. The college had a nursing program that churned out graduates, sports teams that funneled athletes to big-time programs, and parking for a few thousand cars — all free but for the effort and the cost of used textbooks.

Classmates included veterans back from Vietnam, women of every marital and maternal status returning to school, middle-aged men wanting to improve their employment prospects and paychecks. We could get our general education requirements out of the way at Chabot — credits we could transfer to a university — which made those two years an invaluable head start. I was able to go on to the State University in Sacramento (at $95 a semester, just barely affordable) and study no other subject but my major, theater arts. (After a year there I moved on, enrolling in a little thing called the School of Hard Knocks, aka Life.)

By some fluke of the punchcard computer era, I made Chabot’s dean’s list taking classes I loved (oral inter-

T pretation), classes I loathed (health, a requirement), classes I aced (film as art — like Jean Renoir’s Golden Coach and Luis Buñuel’s Simon of the Desert), and classes I dropped after the first hour (astronomy, because it was all math). I nearly failed zoology, killing my fruit flies by neglect, but got lucky in an English course, “The College Reading Experience.” The books of Carlos Castañeda were incomprehensible to me (and still are), but my assigned presentation on the analytic process called structural dynamics was hailed as clear and concise, though I did nothing more than embellish the definition I had looked up in the dictionary.

Classes I took at Chabot have rippled through my professional pond. I produced the HBO mini-series John Adams with an outline format I learned from a pipe-smoking historian, James Coovelis, whose lectures were riveting.

Mary Lou Fitzgerald’s Studies in Shakespeare taught me how the five-act structures of Richard III, The Tempest and Othello focused their themes.

In Herb Kennedy’s Drama in Performance, I read plays like The Hot L Baltimore and

Desire Under the Elms, then saw their productions. I got to see the plays he taught, through student rush tickets at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco and the Berkeley Repertory Theater. Those plays filled my head with expanded dreams. I got an A. Of course, I goofed off between classes eating french fries and looking at girls; such are the pleasures, too, of schools that cost thousands of bucks a semester. Some hours I idled away in the huge library that anchored Chabot’s oval quad. It’s where I first read The New York Times, frustrated by its lack of comics.

If Chabot’s library still has its collection of vinyl records, you will find my name repeatedly on the takeout slip of Jason Robards’s performance of the monologues of Eugene O’Neill. On Side B he was Hickey, from The Iceman Cometh, a recording I listened to 20 times at least. When I worked with Mr. Robards on the 1993 film Philadelphia, he confessed to recording those monologues at 10 in the morning after lots and lots of coffee.

President Barack Obama hopes to make two years

of free community college accessible for up to 9 million Americans. I’m guessing the new Congress will squawk at the $60 billion price tag, but I hope the idea sticks, because more veterans, from Iraq and Afghanistan this time, as well as another generation of mothers, single parents and workers who have been out of the job market, need lower obstacles between now and the next chapter of their lives. High school graduates without the finances for a higher education can postpone taking on big loans and maybe luck into the class that will redefine their life’s work.

Many lives will be changed.

Chabot College is still in Hayward, though Coovelis, Fitzgerald and Kennedy are no longer there. I drove past the campus a few years ago with one of my kids and summed up my two years there this way: “That place made me what I am today.”

Tom Hanks is an actor, producer and director. His 2011 film, Larry Crowne, was inspired by his years at Chabot College. He wrote this commentary for The New York Times.

COMMENTARY: NEAL McCLUSKEY

Community colleges are a bad deal WASHINGTON resident Barack Obama announced a plan recently to provide free community college to any “responsible” student who wanted it.

That’s a bad idea. Community colleges perform poorly, and any additional government subsidy of these already heavily subsidized, weak performers would likely be a waste of money. For proof, compare them to much derided for-profit institutions. While these schools have their own flaws, their students do better on a variety of measures.

Take completion rates. According to the federal Digest of Education Statistics, only 19.5 percent of first-time, full-time students at two-year public schools finish their programs within 150 percent of the time they are slated to take. So less than 20 percent finish a two-year degree within three years, or, say, a 10-month certificate program within 15 months. And that rate has fallen even since 2000, when 23.6 percent of students completed.

That statistic doesn’t change much when you account for student transfers.

According to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center, only 20 percent of community college students transfer to four-year institutions.

Four years later, 72 percent of those have completed their degree or remain enrolled. That inches the success rate to roughly 34 percent. Meanwhile, the forprofit sector that has been so demonized by the administration has an almost 63 percent completion rate at two-year institutions, and that has been rising steadily since the 2000 cohort.

P

A-9

How about cost?

For-profit schools are much more expensive than community college. In the 2012-13 school year, average tuition and fees at two-year public schools ran $2,792, versus $14,193 at two-year for-profits. But something interesting is going on.

Given the wide price difference, you would expect for-profit schools to be getting their lunch eaten by already dirtcheap community colleges. They haven’t been. Between 1990 and 2010, for-profit colleges saw much faster enrollment growth than community colleges; 179 percent compared to 44 percent. Why? There are many reasons, but one seems to be that for-profits are more responsive to students’ needs and desires than community colleges. They appear to offer more flexible scheduling, better focused training and superior student services.

They can charge more in part because they provide a better service.

Of course, profit doubters offer a different explanation: For-profits are duping students. While there certainly are examples of proprietary schools offering misleading employment data, or recruiting unprepared individuals to bring in federal student aid, there is no compelling evidence that fraud and abuse are endemic to for-profit higher ed.

But aid-grabbing points us to the root of the higher education problem: government subsidies. As long as taxpayers pick up much of the college tab instead of the students consuming the education, waste will be rife.

Indeed, one likely reason community college completion rates are so low is that

Section editor: Inez Russell Gomez, 986-3053, igomez@sfnewmexican.com, Twitter @inezrussell

their heavily subsidized prices — they get tens of billions of dollars in direct government subsidies every year — create serious disincentives for many students to work as hard and as quickly as they can to complete studies they know are in demand in the workforce. The colleges also need not respond effectively to student needs, since much of their funding is detached from students. The education research firm MDRC recently reported that counselor-to-student ratios of 1 to 1,000 are not uncommon in community colleges, and large percentages of students don’t see a counselor within four weeks of starting their programs.

On the flip side, while they are more student-centered, for-profit schools have strong incentives to set high prices because the federal government attaches major aid to students. Of course, it isn’t just for-profit schools doing this; price inflation throughout higher education is infamously rampant, while even the best first-time, full-time completion rate — at private, nonprofit schools — is only 65.3 percent.

For-profit schools have serious problems — high prices, too-low completion rates and, yes, sometimes dubious behavior — but given the information we have, even in this imperfect system for-profit institutions seem to beat community colleges.

Neal McCluskey is the associate director of the Cato Institute’s Center for Educational Freedom. He wrote this commentary for The Washington Post.

he trouble with much of what passes for education reform is that there is not always evidence showing what actually works. Yet finding out what will improve educational outcomes is essential — precious dollars can be spent in ways that produce better students.

That’s why news from the Los Alamos National Laboratory Foundation’s Inquiry Science Education Program is important, not just for Northern New Mexico, but for students everywhere. As befits a foundation bearing the name of a scientific laboratory, the folks behind the LANL Foundation want evidence-backed results. They want to know that the money they are spending isn’t just making everyone feel good, but producing results.

Now, with an independent evaluation of four years of inquiry science education, we have a better idea of methods that will work. To begin, what is inquiry science? Well, it’s more than simply hands-on work. The notion behind it is basic: To learn science, a student must do science. Texts, worksheets and lectures are all well and good, but young thinkers who absorb science do so best through experiments, research and critical thinking.

Through the Northern New Mexico Inquiry Science Education Consortium, teachers receive training and curriculum “kits” to share scientific lessons in physical science, earth science and life science. A science literacy coach provides ongoing support, too. The curriculum is matched to state and national science content standards so the goal for teachers and students is clear. Started with four districts in 2010, the program is now in seven Northern New Mexico districts, affecting some 11,000 children in 37 schools (including 11 in Santa Fe).

However, the question remained: Did it work? The LANL Foundation hired Research Educational Laboratory of Edvance Research Inc. to do a five-year evaluation — spending $1 million to make sure they could measure results. (So far, the entire initiative has cost about $10 million).

The results are encouraging, not just because student achievement increased, but because the cost of this initiative is relatively inexpensive — about $200 a year per student. The evidence shows benefits that go beyond science education, too. Researchers discovered that leaving a science teacher in place over several years, so that he or she becomes an expert on the subject matter and improves teaching practices, is a practice that will help teachers in any subject area or grade level. It’s not about science, it’s about supporting teachers with strong curriculum and improved teaching practices.

Because this is a four-year study, we also see that results do not happen overnight — improvement showed up in year four, for the most part. To summarize, male students in grades four, five and six performed between two and nine points higher in reading, math, writing and science than their counterparts at schools that didn’t have the science program. Female students in each grade performed between one and eight points higher in each of the subject areas than their counterparts.

Excellent curriculum, strong professional development, stability in the classroom and teaching practices that engage the whole student — these aren’t elements of a movie featuring a super teacher in control, but they are smart reforms that could change education. LANL Foundation’s success — not just in educating kids about science but in showing what works — can be replicated in other districts across the state.

The state Legislature, as it gathers to discuss the issues of the day, including education, should pay attention to science inquiry education. Programs such as this, in every school district in the state, could help New Mexico catch up in education.

The hiring of “bracero” labor from Mexico became illegal in the United States after Dec. 31. More than 450 Navajos have been employed to replace them. Most of the Navajos are harvesting the lettuce crop in southwestern Arizona.

Nadji Jeter

BURBANK, Calif. — Police say an 18-year-old actor has been arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of marijuana.

Burbank Police. Sgt. Scott Meadows said Sunday that Nadji Jeter was pulled over shortly after 7 p.m. Saturday for an alleged traffic violation and was later arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence.

Jeter is known for playing the role of Andres McKenzie, the son of Chris Rock’s character, in the movie Grown Ups. The Associated Press

More than 20 cars piled up on Interstate 76 in Philadelphia after freezing rain on Sunday. Slick roads caused a number of crashes, including collisions that also closed parts of Interstates 95 and 476 in and around Philadelphia.

PENNDOT VIA FOXTV/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

At least 5 killed due to icy weather Northeast storm makes roads messy The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Rain “flashfreezing” on roads and sidewalks left an icy glaze under feet and tires across much of the northeast on Sunday, causing crashes that claimed at least five lives.

A crash involving 30 to 50 vehicles on Interstate 76 outside Philadelphia killed one person, and two others died in a crash involving multiple vehicles on nearby Interstate 476, police said. In northeastern Pennsylvania, a man was killed after his car overturned on an icy road and he was thrown from it and hit by a commercial vehicle. In Connecticut, police cited slippery conditions in a crash that killed an 88-year-old woman who struck a utility pole in New Haven.

“This is the worst type of winter precipitation to combat, because it can freeze instantly and it doesn’t need to be the whole pavement for vehicles crossing it to have problems,” Pennsylvania Department of Transportation spokesman Eugene Blaum said.

Kaitlyn Maier grew up in upstate New York but said that didn’t prepare her for the icy conditions she encountered trying to get from her home in Philadelphia to her niece’s baptism.

“I’ve driven through snow a lot, and this isn’t like anything I’ve ever driven in,” Maier told The Associated Press.

She came upon the I-76 wreck moments after it happened and saw a jumbled line

of cars extending around the bend ahead of her. “We were stopped for a while on the side of the road. I was going less than 10 mph, but I had no control of my vehicle.”

Freezing rain and snow was expected in interior parts of New England, but the temperature was expected to rise into the 40s and 50s along the coast and change the precipitation to plain rain in time for the evening AFC Championship Game between the Patriots and Indianapolis Colts.

On the West Coast, high winds left tens of thousands of customers without power in the Seattle area, but power companies promised Seahawks fans they’d do their best to restore power before the NFC title game against the Green Bay Packers.

In eastern Oregon, highway officials partially reopened Interstate 84 Sunday after a massive crash blamed on black ice Saturday closed more than 160 miles of eastbound lanes.

Rain was expected in western Oregon Sunday and Monday, but not as much as fell on Saturday, when 1.8 inches of rain in Portland sent some untreated sewage into the river.

Dozens of spinouts and accidents were reported from northern New Jersey to southern New Hampshire on Sunday and treacherous conditions forced the closure of the New York State Thruway from Newburgh to New York City during the morning. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority warned travelers on a commuter railroad to beware of ice on staircases, platforms and parking lots.

Lobos can’t contain Boise State

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Bill Belichick and Tom Brady are headed to a special place where no coach or player has gone more — the Super Bowl.

They earned their trip with the second most lopsided AFC championship victory ever.

The New England Patriots dominant duo earned a sixth trip to the Super Bowl with a 45-7 wipeout of the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC championship game before a raucous, rain-soaked crowd Sunday night.

Scoring touchdowns on their first four second-half possessions,

the Patriots (14-4) moved on to face defending champion Seattle (14-4) for the NFL title on Feb. 1 in Glendale, Ariz. Belichick will face Pete Carroll, whom he replaced as Patriots coach 2000.

The Seahawks beat the Green Bay Packers 28-22 in overtime in the NFC title game.

“I only have one thing to say.

We’re on to Seattle,” Belichick said, echoing the statement he repeated several times, “We’re on to Cincinnati,” after a 41-14 loss at Kansas City dropped the Patriots to 2-2.

Out of nowhere

By Will Webber The New Mexican

A week and a half ago, University of New Mexico athletics director Paul Krebs was asked during his radio talk show about his thoughts on the Lobo basketBoise St. 69 ball team.

In a nutshell, he UNM 59 said they’re young and inexperienced, prone to making mistakes and just as capable of winning some games they shouldn’t as they are losing games they should win.

Sunday evening was one of those times. Behind 31 points from guard Derrick Marks and a career-best 23 from James Webb III, visiting Boise State picked up its first-ever win in The Pit with a 69-59 Mountain West Conference victory.

The loss prevented the Lobos (12-6, 4-2) from climbing into a first place tie with Wyoming in the MWC. New Mexico will be in Laramie, Wyo., on Jan 24.

Boise State finished the game on a 14-4 run in the final four minutes.

Nick Duncan gave the Broncos the lead for good by burying a 3-pointer in the corner to make it 58-55 with 3:38 remaining.

“You can’t be at 55-55, a chance to take the lead and miss two free throws and go out empty handed,” said Craig Neal, UNM head coach.

“We couldn’t stop ’em, and that’s on me.”

Djokovic revives his ‘tradition’

By Jocelyn Gecker The Associated Press

MELBOURNE, Australia — On the eve of the Australian Open, Novak Djokovic revived what he called his “little tradition” — a moment where he stops talking about tennis, rises from the chair at his pre-tournament news conference and distributes chocolates to the media.

A crowd-pleaser on court and off, Djokovic glided through the aisles of Novak the auditorium SunDjokovic day chatting about how many languages he spoke (“a lot”) and delighting a Chinese journalist by saying “Ni hao,” or hello, as he graciously offered sweets with a smile.

“I have a strict diet. This is only for you. You can have two if you like,” he quipped during his pre-tournament performance, a repeat of his press conference before the 2014 Australian Open. “This is not bribery, just good spirits. A little delight. Why not!”

Of course, chocolates aren’t the only tradition the top-ranked tennis star wants to restore.

Seahawks rally stuns Packers in overtime for NFC title

By Barry Wilner The Associated Press

SEATTLE he loudest stadium in America was silent.

A return trip to the Super Bowl was slipping away.

Time for the Seattle Seahawks to show why they are champions.

“You have the belief these guys have in one another, there is nothing you can’t do,” coach Pete Carroll said after an implausible comeback for a 28-22 victory over Green Bay in the NFC championship game Sunday.

T

Plagued by turnovers and outplayed much of the day, the Seahawks staged a stunning rally built on resilience. Russell Wilson, who struggled until the final minutes, hit Jermaine Kearse for a 35-yard touchdown 3:19 into the extra period to win it.

The Seahawks became the first defending champion to make the Super Bowl in 10 years, and will play the AFC champion New England Patriots, who routed Indianapolis 45-7. How Seattle got there was stunning.

“The will and the drive of these men is unbelievable,” Wilson said. “We always find a way to finish.”

Seattle (14-4) trailed 19-7 with about four minutes remaining and had been ineffective on offense all game. Wilson finally put a drive together with passes to Doug Baldwin and Marshawn Lynch — initially ruled a touchdown but called back

because he stepped out of bounds. Wilson finished with a 1-yard scoring run to cut the lead to 19-14 with 2:09 left.

The onside kick went high to Packers tight end Brandon Bostick, but he couldn’t gather it, and Seattle’s Chris Matthews recovered at the 50. The crowd, quiet since Seattle fell behind 16-0, came alive, and Lynch sped and powered his way to a 24-yard TD run. On the 2-point conversion, Wilson — about to be sacked — threw a desperate pass hauled in by Luke Willson to make it 22-19 with 1:25 remaining.

Aaron Rodgers, limping on an injured calf, calmly led the Packers (13-5) downfield to set up Mason Crosby’s fifth field goal, a 48-yarder with 14 seconds to go to force overtime.

Seahawks face Patriots for NFL championship

By Howard Fendrich The Associated Press

For Russell Wilson’s Seattle Seahawks to become the first team in a decade to win consecutive Super Bowls, they’ll have to beat the most recent group to do it, Tom Brady’s New England Patriots.

In an enticing matchup pitting the defending champions against the dominant NFL franchise of the 2000s, the NFC’s Seahawks (14-4) will face the AFC’s Patriots (14-4) in the title game at Glendale, Ariz., in two weeks.

SUPER BOWL XLIX When: 4:30 p.m. Feb. 1 on NBC Where: University of Phoenix Stadium, Glendale, Ariz.

Who: Seattle Seahawks (14-4) vs. New England Patriots (14-4)

New England reached its eighth Super Bowl, equaling the Dallas Cowboys and Pittsburgh Steelers for most in league history. It’s the sixth time quarterback Brady and coach Bill Belichick made it in the past 14 years; they won trophies after the 2001, 2003 and 2004 seasons.

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

But they lost in their past two appearances, after the 2007 and 2011 seasons, both times against Eli Manning and the New York Giants.

Some Las Vegas sports books had the Seahawks — heading to the franchise’s third Super Bowl — as 1-point favorites, while others made the game a pick ‘em.

Evans leads Pelicans past Raptors

UNC earns sloppy win over Hokies

The Associated Press

TORONTO — Tyreke Evans scored on a driving layup with 1.6 seconds left and the New Orleans Pelicans beat Toronto 95-93 on Sunday, their first victory in seven meetings with the Raptors.

Evans scored 26 points, and Alexis Ajinca had 22 to help the Pelicans win without injured starters Anthony Davis and Jrue Holiday. Davis and Holiday sat out for the second straight game. Davis is sidelined by a sprained toe on his left foot, and Holiday has a sore right ankle.

Pelicans coach Monty Williams said Davis could return

Monday night at New York against the Knicks, but said he won’t rush the former first overall pick back into the lineup because of how hard Davis plays.

SPURS 89, JAZZ 69 In San Antonio, Texas, Tiago Splitter scored 14 points, Kawhi Leonard had 12 points and nine rebounds and San Antonio never trailed while holding Utah to a season-low scoring total.

Tim Duncan added 11 points in 23 minutes for San Antonio, which has won three straight — including the last two with Leonard back in the lineup.

Rudy Gobert had 13 points and a season-high 18 rebounds and Gordon Hayward added

10 points for Utah. The Jazz shot 33 percent while also setting season lows in points by a San Antonio opponent for the game and in the first half (27).

THUNDER 127, MAGIC 99 In Orlando, Fla., Kevin Durant had 21 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists, and Oklahoma City ran past Orlando.

Russell Westbrook finished with 17 points and six assists.

Serge Ibaka and Dion Waiters each added 16 points.

The Thunder never trailed, and led by as many as 38 on their way to snapping a fourgame road losing streak. They also shot 57 percent in the first of five road games in nine nights.

The Associated Press

with just over 2 minutes left.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — Justin Jackson scored 16 points and No. 15 North Carolina held on for a sloppy 68-53 win over Virginia Tech on Sunday night.

Brice Johnson added 12 points and 11 rebounds to help the Tar Heels (14-4, 4-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) win their fourth straight.

North Carolina shot 44 percent and overcame 17 turnovers — its most in nearly a month — by forcing Virginia Tech into 14.

The Tar Heels held the Hokies scoreless for nearly 7 minutes and outrebounded them 49-22, allowing them just four on the offensive glass.

Adam Smith had 11 points to lead Virginia Tech (8-9, 0-4), which cut an 18-point deficit to eight and closed to 61-53 on Smith’s 3-pointer

NO. 23 NORTHERN IOWA 60, MISSOURI STATE 46 In Cedar Falls, Iowa, Seth Tuttle scored 22 points with 10 rebounds and Northern Iowa cruised past Missouri State for its fifth straight win.

Deon Mitchell had 11 points for the Panthers (16-2, 5-1 MVC), who moved into a tie for second place in the Valley with Indiana State with the win.

Northern Iowa made quick work of the overmatched Bears (8-10, 2-4), who only dressed nine players.

The Panthers pushed a 12-point halftime lead to 47-30 midway through the second half and won by double digits for the fourth consecutive game.

Austin Ruder had 13 points for Missouri State, which played its second game without suspended star Marcus Marshall.

GOLF

Allenby beaten, stunned over robbery Golfer says he was dumped in a park

By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press

HONOLULU — His left eye bruised and swollen shut, Australian golfer Robert Allenby is still shaking over a beating and robbery that left him unable to remember anything except being dumped in a gutter near a park of homeless people.

“You think … that happens in the movie, not real life,” Allenby told The Associated Press by phone Sunday. “I’m just happy to be alive.”

Allenby posted a photo to his private Facebook account showing a bloodied scrape on his forehead and the bridge of his nose. He said that came from being tossed from the trunk of a car. He said the bruise on his left eye must have come from being beaten in the car.

“I don’t know what they hit me with between the eyeballs, whether a fist or a baseball bat,” he said. “Whatever it was, it hurts.”

Allenby missed the Sony Open cut and then went to Amuse Wine Bar in Honolulu on Friday night with his caddie and a friend from Australia.

He had been to the bar earlier in the week, thought it was a trendy spot and wanted to try the restaurant. Allenby remembers having dinner, a few glasses of red wine and that was about it.

“There was a couple of hours where I was out cold,” Allenby said.

Even after he returned to the bar on Saturday with police and watched tape from a surveillance camera that showed him leaving with four people,

Robert Allenby of Australia says he was robbed, beaten and dumped in a park Saturday after missing the cut in the Sony Open, leaving him with cuts and a deep scrape on his forehead. HUGH GENTRY/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

he doesn’t know who they were or even leaving the bar.

Allenby said he has no recollection until getting kicked and prodded by homeless people searching for whatever he had left.

Allenby said his wallet, cash, driver’s license, PGA Tour badge and cellphone were taken. All he had on him in the gutter were two receipts, the American Express card to pay for dinner that he put loosely in his pockets and a watch.

He said the receipt showed that he paid for dinner at 10:06 p.m. Friday, and paid for the wine at 10:48. He said the restaurant closed at 11 p.m.

Allenby said he was checked out by the doctors, but he did not have a blood test to determine if he was drugged.

“I did ask to get a blood test, but they said it was probably out of your system,” he said.

The Honolulu Police Depart-

ment did not return repeated calls. TV station KHON2 in Honolulu reported Saturday that the matter was being investigated as second-degree robbery.

The image of Allenby’s face, which he posted to Facebook, was a jarring image in the middle of a golf tournament. Webb Simpson ran into Allenby went he got back to the hotel last night.

“I could believe what happened to him,” Simpson said.

Allenby said surveillance cameras showed his friend Anthony Puntoriero talking to someone in the bar.

“I think that was a decoy, a distraction,” Allenby said. “I went to the bathroom, came out of the bathroom and was told that Anthony had left and was downstairs waiting for me.

I go downstairs and then, bang!

They knock me out and take me six or seven miles away.”

He said the tape showed one man put a hand on Allenby’s shoulder.

“I seriously don’t even remember meeting these people,” he said. “That’s what is weird. All I know is that I was walking very quietly with them and normal. It didn’t make any sense at all.”

Allenby said a homeless woman told him he was thrown out of the car, but the ordeal wasn’t over just yet. He said several homeless were “kicking me to see if I was alive, and then trying to steal everything else from me.”

He said a man who said he was in the Army came to his aid. Instead of calling an ambulance or the police, Allenby said he wanted to go back to the Kahala Resort at Waialae Country Club because “I just wanted to be in a safe place.”

Allenby said he called daughter Lily, who turned 13 on Saturday, and she was sobbing.

He said his body felt fine except for the swollen left eye and scrapes on his face. He was hoping to make his flight Sunday night to Los Angeles, and then he would decide if he was fit to play the Humana Challenge next week in La Quinta, Calif.

Allenby has 22 wins worldwide, including four on the PGA Tour, the last one in 2001.

He has played in the Presidents Cup six times.

“I’m still shaking, still scared,” he said. “It’s just so surreal, just amazing. How does that happen to me? I went from one area where I could have died to another area where I got dumped and homeless people are trying to mug me even more. Sometimes we’re all naive. We only think this happens in the movies.”

Lobos: Delaney scores team-high 13 points Continued from Page B-1 The Lobos’ inability to contain Boise State’s shooters was their undoing. Entering the game with one of the top 3-point defenses in the country, they were blistered to the tune of 11 3-pointers. That included a memorable 7-for-7 night from beyond the arc by Webb, a freshman who didn’t even play in Boise State’s first give games this season.

“We just didn’t do a very good job,” said Neal. “We didn’t change up enough, we went against everything we’ve been doing and that’s my fault. We didn’t change up zones enough.”

The Lobos also continued their seasonlong trend of poor shot selection in situations where it matters most. They did have an outstanding night in low post, finishing the game 23-for-41 from inside the 3-point line. Outside: 2 of 14, including another rough night from point guard Hugh Greenwood. He missed all four of his attempts and had just six points.

Deshawn Delaney had a team-high 13 points for UNM while Jordan Goodman

came off the bench to score 10. No one else was in double figures.

Boise State (12-6, 2-3) recovered from a 22-14 deficit in the first half but Webb dropped four straight 3-pointers in a 12-6 Broncos’ surge that cut the lead to 28-26 just before halftime.

The foul line proved pivotal as Boise State, behind Webb’s 10-for-11 effort, went 14-for-19 while the Lobos went 7-for-13.

After trailing 31-30 at halftime, the Broncos opened up the second half with a 14-6 run behind eight points from Marks, going up 44-37 for their biggest lead.

The Lobos clawed back, tying it at 48 with a Greenwood layup midway through the half. It was the first of four ties before the Broncos regained control.

Neal’s issue with his own offense had everything to do with shot selection and failing to stick to what was working — pounding the ball inside.

“I tell you, the biggest lost art in the game today is post passing,” Neal said.

“Guys can’t throw it to the post. We got some guys that can’t throw it in there, guys that can’t see. We can break down film

after film after film and do drill after drill after drill and if they can do it in practice but we can’t do it in the game, I don’t know what more we can do. But we gotta throw it in there.”

NOTES u New Mexico pushed its streak to 18 straight games without allowing an opponent to score 70 points. The Broncos had 69 with the ball and 30 seconds left, but elected to simply run the clock out without taking a shot. u After the game, UNM announced the resignation of trainer Nate Burney. A native of Kansas, Burney will return to his home state to work in the private sector. He was UNM’s trainer for six years. u Despite going head to head with Sunday’s NFL conference championship games — tipoff came in the closing seconds of regulation of Seattle’s dramatic rally to beat Green Bay — Sunday’s game drew an near capacity crowd of 15,206. u Marks has scored at least 30 points four times this season, including his last two games. u The Lobos play at UNLV on Wednesday and Wyoming on Saturday.

Open: Big question over Nadal’s fitness Continued from Page B-1 tralian Open title, an accomplishment that would raise his overall number of Grand Slam trophies to eight.

The 27-year-old who became a new father in October arrived in Australia feeling ill and canceled a practice session Saturday, raising concerns about his fitness for the season’s first Grand Slam. But Sunday he was back on the court for a training session, hitting hard and moving well around the court, and said he was feeling better.

“I had a tough couple of days.

But it’s all behind me now. I’m ready for the Open,” he said, adding he’d picked up a virus in the Middle East where he played matches recently in Abu Dhabi and Doha, Qatar. “[It was] a little bit of flu and stomach,” he said. “But now it’s good, it’s passed.”

Djokovic is coming off of a strong season that included winning his second Wimbledon title, a return to No. 1 in the rankings and a few personal milestones. A few days after

winning Wimbledon in July, Djokovic married his longtime girlfriend, Jelena Ristic, and the couple welcomed their first child, a baby boy, in October.

But after a “good off-season,” his focus is now on work.

Djokovic is scheduled to play his first-round match Tuesday against Slovenian qualifier Aljaz Bedene.

As the tennis season gets underway, the big topic of conversation is whether the “Old Guard” of champions will continue to dominate — No. 2 Roger Federer, No. 3 Rafael Nadal and Djokovic — who have shared most of the Grand Slam trophies of the past decade. Or if the new generation of occasional winners will make more headway.

Stan Wawrinka, who for years was known as “the other Swiss star,” won the Australian Open last year but doesn’t want to dwell on that.

“I have a lot of memories.

They’re incredible memories,” Wawrinka said Sunday, during a news conference conducted in English and French. “But it’s 2015, we’re all starting from

zero. Everyone wants to win.”

Wawrinka begins his title defense against Marsel Ilhan of Turkey. He could meet U.S. Open finalist Kei Nishikori in the quarterfinals before a potential semifinal against Djokovic. Marin Cilic who won the U.S. Open won’t play in Melbourne because of a right shoulder injury.

Federer, Murray and Nadal are on the other half of the draw and are scheduled to play Monday.

Federer’s place in history is still taking shape.

The Swiss star has 17 Grand Slam titles and is a strong contender for his 18th in Melbourne. He opened his season by winning the Brisbane International and recording his 1,000th career match win with victory over Milos Raonic, another upcoming star, in the Jan. 11 final.

Asked how close he felt to his top form, Federer said he thinks he might be improving with age.

“I am 33, so things are a bit different today than they were 10 years ago,” he said

about his training and fitness routines. But he said his game feels strong after a few tweaks he made last year including playing with a new racket and a new coach, six-time major winner Stefan Edberg, who has honed Federer’s attacking game.

Federer will play Lu Yenhsun of Taiwan in the first round and could meet sixthseeded Murray in the quarterfinals. Murray plays a qualifier, Yuki Bhambri, in the first round.

The biggest question mark through the opening week, at least, will be Nadal’s fitness after he spent three months out with a right wrist injury after Wimbledon, and later had appendix surgery.

Nadal himself is not optimistic.

“I don’t consider myself one of the favorites here,” Nadal said. He defers this time around to the other usual suspects: Djokovic “a fantastic player,” Roger “the same story” or Murray — “he’s playing well,” said Nadal. “We’ll see.”

Manning to miss Pro Bowl Denver quarterback cites lingering thigh injury The Associated Press

Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning, right, drops the ball as he is sacked by San Diego Chargers outside linebacker Melvin Ingram during the first half of a Dec. 14 game in San Diego. The Broncos recovered their own fumble.

ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE PHOTO

dehydration from a nasty flu bug the night before the game.

This is the first time Manning is skipping the league’s annual all-star game for a reason other than preparing for an upcoming Super Bowl. He missed it in 2010 with the Colts and again in 2014 with the Broncos. He played in the 2007 all-star game a week after winning his only Super Bowl title.

Manning finished second in the league this year with 39 touchdown passes and was in the top five with 4,727 yards passing and a 101.5 passer rating. But he faded down the stretch when he was bothered by both the thigh injury and opponents clogging underneath crossing routes.

Manning was one of a league-high 10 Broncos selected to the Pro Bowl, five on each side of the ball. With such a star-studded roster, the Broncos had a “Super Bowl or bust” mentality as they sought to return

to the title game and atone for last year’s 35-point loss to the Seahawks.

Their flat performance in losing 24-13 to the Colts last weekend rocked the organization and led to a split with coach John Fox, who was hired Friday as Marc Trestman’s replacement in Chicago.

That loss also led Manning to reassess his future. After saying in December that he planned to return for an 18th season in the NFL and fourth in Denver, Manning said after the game that he was unsure about returning or retiring.

Manning, who turns 39 in March, has two years and $38 million left on his fiveyear contract.

GM John Elway met with Manning on Monday and asked him not to make a rash decision. Elway said he’d check in with Manning during his search for a new head coach but didn’t need a decision from his quarterback for a month or so.

night that he didn’t know much about Kubiak’s deep history in Denver.

“I just know he was the offensive coordinator for the Ravens last year and he did a great job,” Harris said. “I’m excited to meet him and get the season rolling.”

“From all I’m hearing, he’ll be a great hire,” Harris added. “I know he’s getting a lot of talent here and we’re ready to get rolling together.”

Kubiak will be the 15th head coach in Broncos history, and talks between him and Elway surely included discussions about Kubiak’s health. Kubiak collapsed at halftime of a Texans game in 2013 but quickly returned to the sideline.

Elway interviewed two other candidates: Broncos offensive coordinator Adam Gase and Bengals defensive backs coach Vance Joseph. Two others, former Bills head coach Doug Marrone and Lions defensive coordinator Teryl Austin, withdrew their names as it became clear that Kubiak was the heavy favorite.

Kubiak takes over a team that may or may not have Peyton Manning under center in 2015.

The five-time MVP is mulling his future after a promising season turned sour down the stretch and ended unexpectedly with a 24-13 loss to his former team in the AFC divisional round.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — As Peyton Manning ponders his football future, he’s concluded one thing: He won’t play in the Pro Bowl next weekend in Glendale, Ariz.

Manning said his right thigh injury hasn’t gotten much better in the week since the Denver Broncos were bounced from the playoffs by Indianapolis.

The five-time NFL MVP extended his QB record with his 14th Pro Bowl selection this season, tying center Bruce Matthews and tight end Tony Gonzalez for the most in NFL history.

Manning calls it “a great honor” to be selected to the game and he’s “always taken the obligation to play in it very seriously.”

“I’ve believed that, if healthy, it’s a player’s responsibility to play in the game because of what it means to be voted in by your peers and the fans,” Manning said.

“I’m disappointed that I’m just not healthy enough this year to be part of it. It’s going to be tough not being down there with the other guys, but it hasn’t had enough time to heal.”

The NFL was informed of Manning’s decision Sunday. Detroit’s Matthew Stafford was added to the Pro Bowl to replace him.

Manning was injured late in the first half of a 22-10 win at San Diego on Dec. 14 and missed a handful of snaps to get treatment just before halftime.

He returned to play the entire second half and didn’t miss any more time with the injury.

It clearly affected his play, however, culminating with eight overthrows in Denver’s 24-13 loss to the Colts last weekend. He also had an incompletion into tight coverage on a third-and-5 play in which he bypassed the run even though he had a 20-yard gap between him and any defender.

Manning blamed the thigh injury on

Seahawks: Fought back from big deficit

onship game Sunday, Seattle’s eighth straight victory. No team had ever won a conference title game after trailing by more than 15 points until Wilson helped produce two touchdowns in a 44-second span late in the fourth quarter, then threw a 35-yard TD pass to Jermaine Kearse on the first drive of OT. There were all sorts of key moments in the topsy-turvy game, including punter Jon Ryan’s touchdown pass on a fake field goal for Seattle’s first points, and a successful onside kick for the Seahawks after Green Bay’s Brandon Bostick failed to hold onto the football.

“Everybody thought we were out of this game,” said Wilson, a third-year quarterback who also was drafted by a Major League Baseball team. “You just trust the experience. You trust the guys you have around you.”

A week ago, the Patriots became the first team to erase

two holes of at least 14 points in a postseason game, but they needed no such comeback Sunday night, completely outclassing the Indianapolis Colts 45-7 for the AFC title. Brady threw a trio of TD passes — including one to left tackle Nate Solder, in the latest bit of trickery from Belichick — and burly running back LeGarrette Blount gained 148 yards on 30 carries and scored three times.

Brady and Belichick are the first QB and first coach with six Super Bowl berths; Belichick’s 21 postseason victories are the most for a coach.

“It’s hard to compare, year to year. I think every situation’s different. We’ve had a lot of good teams in the past,” the 37-year-old Brady said. “This one is going to have to win a very important game to kind of leave our legacy.”

Elway asked Manning not to make a rash decision and said he won’t need an answer for a few weeks. Manning, who turns 39 in March, is due $19 million each of the next two seasons.

If he decides to retire, the Broncos would give a long look to Brock Osweiler, whom Elway drafted in the second round in 2012 and who has served a three-year apprenticeship under Manning.

Manning pulled out of next week’s Pro Bowl because a strained right thigh hasn’t gotten much better since his season ended. He was one of the Broncos’ league-high 10 Pro Bowlers, only two of whom are pending free agents — Demaryius Thomas and Julius Thomas — and Elway said re-signing them were his top priorities once he found a new coach.

Kubiak is expected to bring Ravens quarterbacks coach Rick Dennison with him back to Denver. Dennison has served as an assistant with Kubiak in Denver, Houston and Baltimore. Joseph, who was Kubiak’s secondary coach in Houston, could emerge as Denver’s new defensive coordinator, too.

Among assistants who could stay in Denver include running backs coach Eric Studesville, quarterbacks coach Greg Knapp and strength and conditioning coach Luke Richesson.

Patriots: Second biggest AFC blowout The biggest blowout in AFC title history was Buffalo’s 30 times for 148 yards and three 51-3 win over the Los Angeles scores and the Patriots charged Raiders in the 1990 season. away after leading just 17-7 at For Colts quarterback halftime.

Today in history Today is Monday, Jan. 19, the 19th day of 2015. There are 346 days left in the year. This is the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.

Today’s highlight in history: On Jan. 19, 1915, Germany carried out its first air raid on Britain during World War I as a pair of Zeppelins dropped bombs onto Great Yarmouth and King’s Lynn in England.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH The unexpected is likely to play a role in your morning events. As a result, someone might become very controlling. Focus on one item at a time. Tonight: Out till the wee hours.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Be willing to detach, especially if a situation seems off. A friend is likely to present a problem, but know that some details are missing. Tonight: A must appearance.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH You could be overwhelmed by everything that is happening. Deal with a loved one directly, and you will feel better.

Tonight: Spend some time with a favorite person.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH People know how to get you to react. Your creativity will open doors for you.

Tonight: Defer to someone else, especially if you are not sure of yourself.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH You’ll be on top of a situation, yet the unexpected might play a significant role. Tonight: Get some form of exercise.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Open up to new possibilities. Your logic might not be as strong as your intuition right now. Tonight: Ignore the fact that it is Monday.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Boyfriend tries to control daughter Dear Annie: For 10 years, my daughter has been in a relationship with a man from another culture. He is controlling, manipulative, arrogant and patronizing. He was raised with servants, nannies and drivers. Now my daughter fills those roles.

I limit visits to once a year because he never fails to make snide comments to me when he is sure my daughter cannot hear him. Once, I asked him what his intentions were toward my daughter, and he said never to question his authority.

After a recent visit, my daughter accused me of not being respectful and loving toward her partner.

She said I am jealous of their wonderful life. This could not be further from the truth. I feel sorry for her. I don’t know how she endures his daily criticisms and verbal abuse. She constantly sings his praises as a good provider and father to their child. I know she is ashamed that he has refused to marry her, but this is probably cultural. She will always remain his mistress but never be an equal.

When I visit, I am polite and civil and thank him for his hospitality, but I do not express any love toward him, nor will I. But I want to remain in my daughter’s life and see my grandchild. I have kept quiet for years because I know it is my daughter’s choice, but I will not pretend. My grandma always said, “If you can’t say anything good about someone, don’t say anything at all.” Well, saying nothing does not seem to be working.

— Concerned Mother Dear Concerned: One of the hardest things for a parent is to watch your child make a huge mistake and not be able to do anything about it. Your daughter is unwilling to leave this relationship. You cannot be expected to show love toward this man. Being polite and civil and thanking him for his hospitality is more than enough. Be careful, however, not to let your disdain show through.

Simply tell your daughter sweetly that you are trying your best and you are glad she is happy.

Dear Annie: I read with great interest your column about the

PNC Christmas Price Index for The Twelve Days of Christmas. However, no matter how I did the math, I couldn’t come close to your grand total figure of $116,273.06. This takes into account that I didn’t know what the exact shipping total was. How did you do the math? — DSH Dear DSH: We received several letters from folks who were confused by the math, so we will explain it, even at this late date.

First of all, the total should be $116,273.08. That last number was a typo on our end. But simply put, the gifts are cumulative. On the first day, she received one partridge in a pear tree. And the second day, she received two turtledoves and another partridge in a pear tree. The third day, she received three French hens, another two turtledoves and a third partridge, and so on. Done cumulatively, there are 364 gifts, and the total cost is $116,273.08. At that point, we’d say the shipping is irrelevant. Here’s the last word on the subject: Dear Annie: I just want to say thanks for your Christmas column. I did not know that it is possible to purchase lords a-leaping.

I really wouldn’t know what to do with them, and at that price, I couldn’t afford them anyway. But I truly did LOL when I read it, and for that, I thank you. (P.S. I always buy my swans locally. The prices are much better.) — S. Dear S.: Thanks for letting us know you enjoyed the columnand your lighthearted response.
