Report highlights education disparity among third-graders

By Robert Nott The New Mexican

A new report released Monday raises alarms about whether America’s 8-year-olds are prepared for success.

Only 36 percent of third-graders in the U.S. score at or above the national average in math, reading and science, according to the report, which also exposes the income and racial divide

in America. White children from higher-income families score significantly higher than other children on these tests.

Published by the private, nonprofit Annie E. Casey Foundation in Baltimore, the report, “The First Eight Years: Giving Kids a Foundation for Lifetime Success,” presents the case for investing in the early years of a child’s life and argues that classroom

learning must be integrated with the child’s social, emotional and physical development to ensure kids have the skills to succeed in life.

The foundation annually publishes the Kids Count Data Book. New Mexico ranked dead last in that publication this year, behind Nevada and Mississippi, in child welfare.

Melony Gutierrez and Sammy Naranjo of Santa Clara Pueblo discuss the damage heavy rains did to their home.

Waiting on aid, pueblo tries to recover from storm damage

By Uriel J. Garcia The New Mexican

The adobe duplex where Sammy Naranjo and Melony Gutierrez live at Santa Clara Pueblo has been hit hard this year by heavy rains.

Severe summer storms caused a wall in an unoccupied portion of the home to fall down and part of the ceiling to cave in.

In September, more storms caused 2 inches of water to seep into the other half of the residence, damaging Naranjo and Gutierrez’s kitchen floor.

“It’s crazy, I’ve never seen [the rain] come down like that before,” Naranjo said of the September weather. “It’s like someone was throwing buckets of water into the house.”

The home is one of a dozen or so pueblo structures damaged by storms and flooding. The tribe’s health center is still closed because of damage it sustained, and residents must go to the Santa Fe Indian Hospital for any urgent care needs, as well as for prescription drugs. On any given day, there are still about 100 peo-

ple at the pueblo cleaning up storm debris.

Meanwhile, Federal Emergency Management Agency officials are assessing damaged areas, but their work was delayed in October by the partial government shutdown. FEMA already has declared a major disaster on Santa Clara land, but the tribe has yet to receive any government aid. Even when the money does come in, none of it will be available to fix Naranjo and Gutierrez’s kitchen floor because federal aid can only be used to remove debris deposited by storms.

Naranjo, 41, and Gutierrez, 32, are both potters who use the kitchen to make their art.

They sell their work from their home, and the flooding has set them back financially.

Naranjo said they don’t have the money for a new kitchen floor.

But more than that, Naranjo is worried about the possibility of mold developing under the house. Gutierrez’s 15-year-old son has nephrotic syndrome, a kidney disorder

s all but one candidate in the Santa Fe mayor’s race seek public financing for their campaigns, a new question has emerged about whether contributions collected electronically count toward the qualification requirements for taxpayer funding.

Each candidate must collect 600 contributions of $5 each to qualify for public funds. At least two candidates — City

Councilors Patti Bushee and Rebecca Wurzburger — are soliciting contributions online to help reach their goal.

After an inquiry by The New Mexican, City Clerk Yolanda Vigil requested an opinion from the City Attorney’s Office on whether voters can sign qualifying contribution forms online.

The city’s Public Campaign Finance Code is unclear on the matter — the latest example of a law that candidates and others say is well-intentioned but in need of clarifying language.

The law was designed to strengthen public confidence in elections and eliminate the danger of undue influence on elected officials who might feel beholden to contributors.

City Council candidates, who run in districts, tested the law in the last municipal election, but this is the first mayoral race with public financing in the mix.

Under the law, candidates who qualify for public financing must forgo additional fundraising from private sources.

Rogoff, who owns the Santa Fe Basket Co., is one of about 26,000 New Mexicans who have been notified that their insurance policies will be terminated at the end of the year because they don’t meet all the federal requirements — such as accepting all preexisting conditions, covering maternity care and putting no cap on lifetime medical costs.

Poll: Older citizens nix changes to Social Security

By David Crary

The Associated Press

By Matt Sedenksy The Associated Press

CHICAGO — Raise the age at which you can begin collecting full Social Security benefits? Older Americans say no. They also veto reductions in the cost-of-living increase.

But a poll finds support among those 50 and older for raising the cap on earnings that are taxed to fund the Social Security program so higherincome workers pay more.

The survey by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds passionate opposition to any change in the way Social Security benefits are calculated that could result in smaller annual raises.

The poll found that 62 percent of respondents expressed opposition to such a proposal, compared with 21 percent who supported it.

The chained CPI, or consumer price index, has been proposed as a new way of calculating the costof-living adjustment, but it would reduce raises.

“I really think it’s a sacred cow,” said Margie Nugent, a 55-year-old farmer from North Umberland, Pa. “They shouldn’t touch it.”

About the same number, 58 percent, oppose gradually raising the age when retirees qualify for full benefits, while 29 percent support it. About one-third believe people should be eligible for full benefits before 65.

Only 10 percent say full eligibility should come after 67, the top eligibility age under current law.

“I contributed to it. It’s my money,” said Joan McDonald, 65, of Annapolis, Md., who retired as an accountant this year and began collecting Social Security. “The plan was, ‘Contribute this and you get this.’ You can’t change the rules.”

Survey respondents showed more willingness to support Social Security proposals that would mostly impact those with higher incomes.

Forty-one percent expressed support for reducing benefits for seniors with higher incomes, compared with 44 percent who opposed the proposal. Whites were much more supportive of reducing benefits for highearning seniors than minorities.

Changes to Social Security are on the horizon because the trust funds that support the massive retirement and disability program are projected to run dry in 2033. At that point, Social Security would only collect enough taxes to pay about three-fourths of benefits. If Congress doesn’t act, benefits automatically would be cut by about 25 percent.

A new round of budget talks underway in Washington could produce proposals to change Social Security.

CELEBRATING DIWALI

Indian widows light lamps as they celebrate Diwali, also known as the festival of lights, Saturday at an ashram in Vrindavan, India. In India, for all of its recent modernization and openness to foreign cultures, being a widow remains one of the worst stigmas a woman can endure, and women are far from equal. When her husband dies, the widow often becomes a pariah, excluded from family gatherings for fear the mere fall of her shadow will bring bad luck and tragedy. RAJESH KUMAR SINGH/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

City Council cleared path for de Blasio NEW YORK — The race to elect the next mayor of New York City, which comes to an end Tuesday, in some ways got its start on Oct. 23, 2008.

On that day, after rancorous debate, the City Council voted to overturn term limits, allowing Mayor Michael Bloomberg to get another four years to shape the nation’s largest city.

But the aftershocks from that decision shaped much of what has followed in the topsy-turvy campaign to select Bloomberg’s successor, a marathon marked by heated debates about hot-button issues, larger-than-life characters and stunning political implosions.

And, as voters get set to go to the polls, public advocate Bill de Blasio has emerged from the chaotic field poised to be the first Democrat chosen to lead the city since 1989.

Every poll taken since the September primary has de Blasio with a commanding lead over Republican nominee Joe Lhota, a one-time deputy mayor to Rudolph Giuliani. An unabashed liberal, de Blasio said he will usher in a new era of progressive governing by raising taxes on the rich, improving police and community relations and reaching out to those who feel slighted by what they believe were 12 years of Bloomberg’s Manhattan-centric policies.

Also contributing to the anger are fears of a bloody backlash, plus a web of complex conspiracy theories, including the idea that militants such as Mehsud are American or Indian pawns intent on weakening Pakistan.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Back in the late 1980s, when Maura Mazzocca was a human resources administrator with a Boston-area firm, a blind man showed up to apply for a job. Today, she remembers the encounter ruefully.

“What I kept thinking about was, ‘How can this man work in a manufacturing company?’ ” Mazzocca recalled, saying she looked past his abilities and saw only his disability.

“I wish now I’d given him a chance.”

That reflectiveness is heartfelt.

Mazzocca lost her own eyesight in 1994 through complications related to diabetes. Now as a jobseeker herself, she knows firsthand the many hurdles the blind must overcome in pursuit of full-time work.

At a job fair last month for blind and low-vision people, there she was going table to table, with a sighted volunteer by her side. Some of the other 80 jobseekers carried white canes, a few had guide dogs.

Like the rest, Mazzocca was greeted with firm handshakes and encouraging words — but none of the employers she spoke with had job openings matching her interests and qualifications.

The venue was the former Radcliffe College gymnasium where Helen Keller exercised en route to becoming the first deaf/blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts in 1904.

Over the ensuing decades, Keller helped increase public awareness of blindness and empathy for those affected by it.

Yet blind people remain largely unwanted in the U.S. workplace, despite technological advances that dramatically boost their capabilities.

Only about 24 percent of working-age Americans with visual disabilities had full-time jobs as of 2011, according to Cornell University’s Employment and Disability Institute.

“There’s a lot of stigma, a lot of obstacles,” said Mazzocca, 51. “It comes down to educating employers. … It’s going to take a really long time, if ever, for them to see us for who we are and what we bring to the table.”

What they bring, according to national advocates for the blind, is a strong work ethic, plus deeper-thanaverage loyalty to their employers.

That’s in addition to whatever talents and training they bring, just like any other applicant.

In the current economy, good jobs are hard to come by for anyone, even the sighted. But the blind face added challenges. Even employers professing interest in hiring blind people often don’t follow through out of concern that they might be a bit slower with key tasks or require assistance that could be burdensome.

said Afghan forces there managed to hold territory as coalition forces began withdrawing in earnest.

Since March, he has closed 54 bases in the east, leaving just 11, plus a coalition presence at six Afghan facilities. Coalition force levels have dropped from about 18,000 to less than 7,500 — nearly all tasked with training.

That reflects the situation around the country; there are about 87,000 coalition troops, 50,000 of them American, and that number is expected to halve by early next year. Last year, there were nearly 150,000 coalition troops.

police, assumed responsibility for security in June, freeing the foreign forces to focus on training. In so doing, it took the lead against an insurgency that had promised to recapture territory it has lost in the 12 years since the U.S.-led invasion.

“Our efforts to date have enabled Afghans to assume the lead, take the fight to the enemy and secure the population,” Marine Gen. Joseph Dunford, the top U.S. and coalition commander in Afghanistan, said in his fall update to the troops.

“But our progress is not yet sustainable.”

Holding territory came at a high price. Coalition officials say Afghan forces were at one point losing 100 men a week, mostly from roadside bombs.

The Afghans’ weakness, say military officials, is logistics — they have trouble with the upkeep of vehicles and other crucial equipment supplied by the West.

the Muslim Brotherhood have been charged with inciting violence during clashes late last year outside the presidential palace, during which 10 people died.

The trial overshadowed Secretary of State John Kerry’s visit here as State Department officials sought to dispel reports in a government newspaper that Kerry had come to for the first time since Morsi’s ouster to stop the trial.

Instead, Kerry urged that Egypt respect the rule of law and for transparent trials without mentioning Monday’s session specifically.

The military-guided transitional government named after Morsi’s ouster has conducted a harsh crackdown on journalists, anti-government activists and members of Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood.

ERT AU TO

BAGRAM AIR FIELD, Afghanistan — The Taliban failed to capture any ground from Afghan security forces fighting for the first time without foreign firepower this fighting season, U.S. officials say, but the insurgents killed scores of soldiers, police and civilians in their campaign to weaken the government.

American and NATO officials say the fledgling army and police aren’t ready to wage a sustained war against a determined insurgency.

Coming just 13 months before most foreign forces are to withdraw, the mixed results reported

by U.S. military officials underline the unresolved question of whether some of those forces should stay.

The assessment adds urgency to the need for the U.S. and Afghanistan to sign a muchdelayed security agreement that will allow a residual foreign force to stay on after the Dec. 31, 2014, withdrawal deadline.

The U.S. says the one issue still to be decided is which courts — U.S. or Afghan — will prosecute crimes committed

by American forces stationed here. Washington is expected to keep about 10,000 troops in Afghanistan after 2014, provided the security agreement is signed and includes immunity from prosecution by Afghan courts.

NATO allies would provide about 5,000 troops, but only if an American presence remains.

Billions of dollars in funds for Afghan forces and development also would be jeopardized if no deal is reached.

Options: Plans likely cost more, cover more Continued from Page A-1 Rogoff has a very basic policy through Presbyterian Health Plan, which has sent letters to 23,000 self-insured members — 2,400 of them in Santa Fe County — saying their current policies are being changed. Members can choose a new plan on their own, or, if they do nothing, Presbyterian will put them in a new plan for another year, beginning Dec. 1.

Lovelace Health Plan sent similar letters to 2,900 members statewide in July, alerting them of upcoming policy cancellations.

Rogoff isn’t sure what she’ll do.

At this point, she isn’t even sure if she should sign up as an individual or as a small business — she is the sole proprietor of the Santa Fe Basket Co. and has no employees.

“There are a lot of unanswered questions,” said Rogoff, who is gearing up her 22-year-old business for the busy holiday season.

Her existing plan has a relatively inexpensive monthly premium, she said, but it has paid for very little medical care. “It was more like a catastrophic health care plan,” she said.

She expects to pay a higher premium for a plan through the Affordable Care Act but get more coverage. She’ll visit an insurance broker Tuesday to learn her options.

John Franchini, New Mexico’s superintendent of insurance, said his office has received quite a few complaints from people whose health insurance plans are being terminated. “I urge people to call the insurance companies and see what plans they have or look at the plans on the health insurance exchange,” he said. “People have many more choices now than they did at this time last year, but they don’t see that yet.”

But Franchini estimates most of those individual policyholders will pay an average of 35 percent more for the new coverage.

Individual plan holders can choose to enroll in a new plan directly from any of the insurance companies that offer individual plans in New Mexico — Presbyterian and Lovelace, as well Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico and United Health Care Options — or they can enroll in a plan through the federal health insurance exchange. More information is available on the state’s health exchange website, www. bewellnm.com.

Here’s a look at some differences among those companies’ offerings for self-insured members:

Presbyterian Health Plan Presbyterian’s letters to 23,000 self-insured members across the state, announcing their plans would end, told members about their options for finding new plans, according to Neal Spero, Presbyterian’s vice president of sales and marketing.

A few hundred of those members may qualify for expanded Medicaid eligibility under the new federal health law, Spero said.

Before Dec. 1, the self-insured members whose plans are being canceled can choose a new Presbyterian plan that will be good for one year, until Nov. 30, 2014.

That plan lacks maternity coverage, Spero said, but otherwise meets the requirements of the federal law. It will cost 20 percent to 25 percent less than Presbyterian plans that fully comply with

the law. “We were trying to save members a little money and give them more time to decide on a new plan,” Spero said.

People who want to stay with Presbyterian also can choose to enroll now in one of several plans that meet all the requirements.

Those plans, which take effect Jan. 1, 2014, can be purchased directly through Presbyterian or through the federal health insurance exchange.

Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico Blue Cross has 28,000 individual policyholders in the state, with 4,600 in Santa Fe County. None has been told that an existing insurance plan will be canceled.

But policyholders have been notified by letter that their rates could go up by about 10 percent on Jan. 1.

Many of the policyholders can extend their existing plans for a year, until Dec. 31, 2014, because they were “grandfathered” in by the state. Policyholders should call Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico to find out their options and whether they have a plan that can be extended.

storm: Pueblo exhausting its resources Continued from Page A-1 that can cause swelling and an excess of protein in the urine, Naranjo said.

While the boy has been doing well recently, breathing in mold could affect his immune system and cause a relapse, the family fears.

The tribe is in the process of applying to the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development for help for individuals, but in the meantime, Naranjo and Gutierrez are not sure where to turn. “Our livelihood is pottery and that’s all we know,” Gutierrez said.

But, Naranjo added, “it all could have been worse.”

The summer storms, which caused severe flooding over many parts of New Mexico, were worse at Santa Clara Pueblo because the 2011 Las Conchas Fire damaged parts of Santa Clara Canyon, tribal land located about 10 miles west of the community. The fire burned 17,000 acres in that area, including the watershed. The burn scars make flooding worse.

Pueblo Sheriff Regis Chavarria said

Lovelace Health Plan Lovelace has 2,900 members statewide, 300 in Santa Fe County, who all received notices in July that they must choose a new plan. The individual members can enroll in a new plan directly through Lovelace or enroll through the federal health care exchange.

“Lovelace wanted to comply with ACA regulations and discontinued our existing individual plan and now offer products on and off the exchange that are ACA compliant,” said Laurie Volkin, communications director for Lovelace Health Plan.

Waiting to enroll The online federal health insurance exchange continues to give some people headaches when they try to enroll. But others have been successful either applying on their own, or working with an insurance broker or directly with insurance companies.

Franchini has recommended people wait until later in November before trying to enroll. In the meantime, they can check out plans and get an idea of what is available.

The Affordable Care Act has many benefits, according to Aaron Ezekiel, the health insurance exchange program manager for the state Office of the Superintendent of Insurance.

There’s no lifetime maximum, and no insurance company can deny someone coverage or charge them more due to a pre-existing condition, except for tobacco smokers. “It used to be they could keep you out of the club of people who had insurance or let you in but charge you a whole lot of money,” Ezekiel said.

Rogoff said those are the things that make her hopeful the new health insurance law is going to prove beneficial for people like herself.

that when it rains, the water comes straight down the canyon walls into the pueblo, along with lots of debris, which has filled up one of the fishing ponds in the canyon and blocked roads. Workers have had to build new access roads to reach areas of downed trees.

According to Matt Tafoya, an official with the Santa Clara Pueblo Forestry Department, it will take more than 100 years for the canyon to have healthy vegetation again.

The tribe has been spending its own money on repairs so far.

But Chavarria said it depleted its $30,000 emergency fund in the week after the July storms. “We’ve just exhausted our resources,” he said.

Since 2011, the pueblo has spent more than $5 million on recovery costs, Chavarria said. That includes some money from the Santa Clara Development Corp., which manages the tribe’s businesses.

One of the biggest jobs is repairing the 6,000-square-foot health clinic.

The Monday after a weekend of severe weather in September, employees

found nearly 2 feet of water inside the building.

The electrical wiring could not be fixed, so electricians are installing new wiring from the ceiling, according to contractor Dennis Heflick. They also are replacing drywall and rebuilding a berm that was supposed to divert water from the clinic.

“We had to get rid of some of the smelliest water,” Heflick said, adding that he thought the clinic would reopen by the end of the year.

Meanwhile, the tribe is waiting for federal relief. That could take months because the money is routed from the Department of Homeland Security (FEMA’s parent agency) through the state.

But to pueblo spokesman Edward Calabaza, “normal won’t return in our lifetime.” And “peace of mind won’t be there because when it rains, the fear of more flooding and more damage will be there.”

Education: Report urges states, feds to help parents help students Continued from Page A-1 The foundation’s new report does not include a state-by-state analysis.

But it does note that some 60 percent of New Mexico children up to age 8 live in low-income households, which directly impacts academic performance.

Chris Hollis, director of New Mexico Kids Count, also pointed out that only about a third of the state’s low-income children attend pre-K programs. “We are not seeing the system helping to pick up the ones who are most at risk,” she said.

The report relies heavily on an early-childhood study that tracked 13,000 children who entered kindergarten in 1998. It also uses a number of national reports on early-childhood education efforts, as well as on federal spending on children and poverty.

It shows somewhat fewer differences among third-graders in social and emotional development and engagement in school. Overall, 70 percent of the children exhibited self-control, good interpersonal skills and no behavioral problems. The difference between high-

and low-income children (75 percent compared to 63 percent) was less in this measure of child welfare.

More higher-income third-graders — 80 percent — were “engaged in school” compared with low-income children — 66 percent — according to the report.

However, the report says only 56 percent of the third-graders overall maintained a healthy weight and were in “very good” or “excellent” health.

The report makes a number of policy suggestions, urging states and the federal government to find ways to aid parents in navigating the array of programs that can help their families.

It says children benefit when their parents have opportunities to gain education and improve their own skills. It calls for increasing access to high-quality programs for kids from birth through age 8, especially those

that target low-income families.

One point the report makes clear, said Laura Speer, associate director of the policy division at the Annie E. Casey Foundation, is that the nation’s early-childhood educational programming remains “a chaotic and unconnected system.” She said the country’s health care system remains equally unconnected because doctors don’t generally interact with child care providers or educators.

For poverty-stricken families, it’s doubly hard to find a helping hand, she said. “If you are a well-educated parent who has time to take off from your job to negotiate through all those challenges, you can do it,” Speer said.

“If you are a parent who is struggling to make ends meet for your children and who may not have a high level of education, then you may not be familiar with all systems — especially if you

are a recent immigrant or someone who hasn’t had a lot of experience with our educational and medical systems.”

The report also links a child’s success to the education level and mental health of the mother. Children of depressed mothers are likely to experience depression. And more than 5 million children ages 8 and younger live with a parent or caregiver who does not have a high school diploma, according to the report.

Hollis cited census data reporting that 20 percent of New Mexico’s children are being raised by a parent or guardian who does not have a highschool degree.

Sunland bankruptcy Financing: Code unclear on certain issues leaves N.M. peanut I think this first year is going to “ be a proving ground to see where farmers scrambling [public financing policy] needs to Continued from Page A-1

By Christina Calloway The Clovis News Journal

CLOVIS — Peanut farmers have a different pay schedule than most. Once they harvest their peanuts in the fall, typically about mid to late-October, they are paid for their crop for the entire year.

When Sunland Inc. declared Chapter 7 bankruptcy early in October, growers in Eastern New Mexico and West Texas were collectively out millions of dollars.

For Causey farmer Hershel Carmichael, not being paid meant it took a substantial portion of savings earmarked for his grandchildren.

“The farmer is the loser here, we’re talking about millions and millions of dollars,” said 65-year-old Carmichael, who’s been farming since 1981.

Though he declined to say how much, Carmichael said the money he’s owed for the 2013 harvest is tacked on to the money he’s owed for his 2012 crop. Carmichael said most farmers were paid about 58 percent of what was owed for 2012.

In addition to the money he is owed, Carmichael said he had money invested in Sunland because his savings are tied to old crop money he left with Sunland for tax purposes.

Carmichael is mostly upset because he feels Sunland wasn’t honest with its growers. Court documents filed in federal court show the one-time giant of the peanut industry had been preparing for the possibility of bankruptcy for the past six months.

“They let us plant a crop, put money into it and get it to where the peanuts are ready to harvest and then filed for bankruptcy,” said Carmichael, who said farmers were transporting their peanuts to the plant up until the day the company announced bankruptcy.

“They let you sink that much money into the crop knowing they couldn’t buy the peanuts and throw you into an open market.”

Carmichael said farmers are in a bind because the crop is ready but there are still no buyers. He said the only option he has now is to pay for storage.

Officials with the New Mexico Film Office say about 60 New Mexico crew members, nearly a dozen actors from the state and 140 background talent are working on the movie.

Dirty Weekend also stars Alice Eve, Gia Crovatin and Phil Burke.

The film follows Broderick’s character, who finds himself in a city where a year earlier too many drinks led to an unexpected encounter. The half-remembered events have

haunted him since and he sets out with his co-worker to figure out what really happened.

EL NUEVO MEXICANO “ Una obra de

Me encantaba el cine. Mi educación era por medio de las películas.” Eric Gustafson

U

Un hombre encuentra la alta sociedad por su afición del cine De Dennis Carroll

Para The New Mexican

U

no tal vez no quedaría sorprendido si uno niño a quien su mamá le había vestido como la actriz Shirley Temple desarrollaría cierta inclinación hacia lo extrava-

gante.

En la primera página de uno de sus tantos libros autobiográficos, Cinderella Is A Man - A Picaresque Passage to Serenity (Cenicienta es un Hombre – Un Pasaje Picaresco a la Serenidad), el actual residente de Santa Fe Eric Gustafson, 78, escribe, “Mi mamá decidió convertir a su hermoso niño en una muñeca de carne y hueso para semejar a la famosa del cine.”

Gustafson, autor, viajero del mundo, conocedor de arte, bon vivant y amigo de muchos “grandes personajes” a través de las décadas se describe a sí mismo como una “obra de arte,” habiéndose ya empapado en música, arte, literatura y el teatro desde una temprana edad.

“Me encantaba el cine,” dice Gustafson, que vivió en el Bronx en sus años formativos. “Mi educación era por medio de las películas. Me identifiqué con ellas y fui a mi casa después y actué las escenas” en lo que él llama las “películas para olvidar” hechas para distraer a la gente preocupada por la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

“Esas películas siempre tomaban lugar en mansiones bellísimas en lugares pintorescos como Inglaterra o Long Island, Nueva York … había damas en vestidos de gala, llenas de joyas y con meseros de guante blanco sirviendo copas de champaña.”

“Los actores hablaban con sus maravillosos acentos ingleses y yo regresaba a la casa tratando de averiguar que es lo que no encajaba … Toda la gente hablando a mi alrededor con un acento muy diferente al que oía en las películas … Así comencé a imitar a los que oía en el cine.”

Además otra influencia en Gustafson fueron los libros que leyó sobre los usos y costumbres de la aristocracia europea así como su fascinación con el glamour y la grandeza de la Ópera Metropolitana y las compañías de ballet de Nueva York y New Jersey.

“De niño cambié mi manera de hablar, cambié mi actitud sobre el rumbo que tomaría en mi vida.

Sabía que el Bronx era lo que no encajaba.”

Su interés por el arte lo llevo a inicios de 1960 a

Parke-Bernet de Nueva York, en ese entonces considerada la subasta más grande de bellas artes en el país, tiempo más tarde comprada por Sotheby’s.

Ahí después de un tiempo se convirtió en consultor de “clientes especiales” lo que aunado a viajes alrededor del mundo y trabajo en galerías de la Costa Este y museos, lo puso en contacto con docenas de luminarias de la época.

Algunas de ellas fueron Greta Garbo (“Ella quería adopartme”), Elizabeth Taylor, quien lo aconsejó a luchar contra su debilidad por la bebida, y Jackie Kennedy (quien “me desvestía con su mirada”).

Las lazos de Gustafson con el mundo del arte lo trajeron de vez en cuando a Santa Fe en los 1960s.

Su trabajo entonces era organizar exposiciones en 1968 para la reapertura de la Ópera de Santa Fe, que se incendió el año anterior. Como director de las Jamison Galleries por un año, fue pieza clave para traer arte contemporáneo al norte de Nuevo México.

Como residente permanente de Santa Fe desde el 2006 después de varios encuentros anteriores con la ciudad, Gustafson continua escribiendo libros, mayormente sobre su vida codeándose con la élite de la sociedad y sus viajes por el mundo — el más reciente a India — y actuar ocasionalmente en alguna obra — la última en el 2010 como el protagonista en The New Century (El Nuevo Siglo) de Paul Rudnick en el teatro Santa Fe Playhouse.

Gustafson leerá pasajes de su más libro más reciente, Last Guy Waltzing – A Colorful Tale of Reinvention (El último bailando — Una Historia Colorida de Reinvención), el 24 de noviembre en la librería Collected Works.

“Cuca,” he began, “Sabías tú que the police hicieron set up un road block en el medio del camino and started dando citations a todos los que no tenían seatbelts o que tenían open containers en el carro? They even arrestaron a tu primo Fedelino and handed him an IUD.” “I don’t think que los polices le dieron un IUD a mi Larry Torres primo pero Growing up es muy posiSpanglish ble que they gave him a DUI.” “¿Qué es la diferencia, Cuca?”

Grampo Caralampio asked her.

“Un DUI quiere decir ‘driving under the influence,’ pero IUD es un ‘intra uterine device,’ ” answered grama.

“Oh, DUI or IUD, no hace any difference. They both keep you from haciendo drive en el camino. Pero sí es verdad, como they say on TV: ‘You drink, you drive, you loser.’ ” “I think que dicen ‘You drink, you drive, you lose,’ no ‘you loser,’ ” Grama Cuca corrected him.

“In any case,” Grampo Caralampio went on, “También arrestaron that crazy cousin of yours; you know, aquella que está un poco loca.”

“Oh, you mean, a mi prima Altagracia, la que puede saber when something va a pasar porque she can sense el futuro,” Grama Cuca confirmed.

“Sí, ésa mera,” grampo added, “la que tiene HBO.” “If she can sense el futuro es porque tiene ESP, no HBO,” Grama Cuca corrected him otra vez. “El ESP es ‘extra sensory perception,’ pero el HBO quiere decir ‘home box office,’ viejo.”

“Otro hombre tried to hacer run away del road block,” grampo went on, haciendo ignore las correcciones de la grama. “Pero they let him go porque hace real important work allá en el RAC.” “What does he do?” grama asked. “Arrentar cosas? He probably works en el ARC, no en el RAC. El ARC es la ‘Association of Retarded Citizens’ pero el RAC es el ‘Rent-a-Center,’ ” grama said. “Es una good thing que you didn’t say RCA porque eso es un televisión.”

“Pero los polices were muy smartes,” grampo went on.

“They let a una ambulancia pass by porque la mujer inside was being taken pa’l hospital to get un RIM.” “Let’s try this otra vez,” grama dijo patiently. “You mean que la llevaban al hospital to get an MRI, no un RIM. Un MRI means ‘magnetic resonance interpreter’ y es cuando hacen scan tu cabeza, pero RIM es ‘rapid eye movement’ cuando tus ojos se mueven bien rápido in your sleep. You keep trocando las inicials, viejo,” she said at last.

“Sí,” grampo answered. “I believe que yo tengo ‘lysdexia.’ ” “There you go otra vez,” grama added. “No es ‘lysdexia.’

La enfermedad se llama ‘dyslexia.’ Es cuando you read todo backwards. Por eso dices cosas como ‘Hutta Piz’ instead of ‘Pizza Hut’ y ‘Kinger Burg’ por decir ‘Burger King.’ I’ve even heard you say que quieres comer ‘loaf meat’ por decir ‘meat loaf.’ ” “Oye, vieja,” Grampo Caralampio defended himself.

“Maybe que mi English no hace sound right porque los adjectives y los nouns están todos backwards en inglés. Es el language que está todo messed up; no yo. Now, I have a big apetito.

TECH Google releases ‘Kit Kat’ phone

By Michael Liedtke The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — Google is selling a new Android smartphone that it hopes will become more like a clairvoyant friend than a piece of hardware.

The Nexus 5 phone unveiled Thursday is the first device to run on Kit Kat, the latest version of Google’s Android operating system.

As with previous Nexus phones, the latest will be sold only at full retail price, without subsidies that come with two-year contract agreements. It goes on sale Thursday in Google’s online Play store starting at $349, undercutting many rival phones at contract-free prices. The phone will work on most U.S. wireless networks, but not Verizon’s. A Nexus 5 model also is available for European markets.

The Nexus 5 and Kit Kat software underscore Google’s ambition to ingrain its search engine and virtual assistant, Google Now, even deeper into people’s lives. In the process, Google Inc. hopes to gather more insights that will enable it to sell more advertising, which generates most of its revenue.

It’ll be easier for Google to learn about a person’s habits and needs so it can display helpful information, such as an online post from a favorite blog or a suggestion to use Fandango’s movie-ticketing service when standing in a long line at a movie theater.

When visiting a tourist attraction such as Yellowstone National Park, Google Now might automatically show information about geysers from the Web. “We want to get to the point where you glance at your phone and it always delights you with what you need,” said Sundar Pichai, a Google executive who oversees Android.

The new phone’s $349 price threatens to lure more cost-conscious consumers away from Apple Inc.’s iPhone, which retails for $649 for the 5S and $549 for the 5C when sold without a traditional two-year service agreement.

In an unusual twist for a software upgrade, Google built Kit Kat so it would work on cheaper smartphones equipped with less computing memory than top-of-the-line devices.

The move reflects the Mountain View, Calif., company’s desire to broaden use of the most recent version of Android. More than 1 billion Android devices have been activated, but a significant number are still using a 3-year-old flavor known as Gingerbread. That version remains popular because it works on those cheaper phones.

The mishmash of Android systems has made it tougher on app developers, who haven’t been able to fully embrace the new features in previous upgrades without risking older phones not being to run their software.

By contrast, Apple makes its iOS upgrades free all at once to several recent models. With Kit Kat, Google has a chance to bring older and cheaper phones up to date.

Google plans to make Kit Kat available for other devices within the next few weeks, but it will be up to individual manufacturers and their wireless carrier partners to decide if and when they will make the update available.

With the release of Kit Kat, Google also has improved its voice recognition technology so it can engage in more meaningful dialogue with users.

‘Iron Man’ U.S. military seeks prototype of armored suit modeled after Marvel Comics character

By David S. Cloud

Tribune Washington Bureau

W

ASHINGTON — Army Capt.

Brian Dowling was leading his Special Forces team through a steep mountain pass in eastern Afghanistan when insurgents ambushed his patrol, leaving two of his soldiers pinned down with life-threatening wounds.

After a furious firefight, the two men were rescued, but that episode in 2006 would change Dowling’s life.

Now employed by a small defense company, he is part of a crash effort by U.S. Special Operations Command to produce a radically new protective suit for elite soldiers to wear into battle — one with bionic limbs, head-to-toe armor, a built-in power supply and live data feeds projected on a seethrough display inside the helmet.

They call it — what else? — the “Iron Man suit.”

“We’re taking the Iron Man concept and bringing it closer to reality,” said Dowling, referring to the Marvel Comics character Tony Stark, an industrialist and master engineer who builds a rocket-powered exoskeleton, turning himself into a superhero.

The Special Operations Command began soliciting ideas for the suit this year from industry, academia and government labs and has held two conferences where potential bidders, including Dowling’s company, Revision Military, demonstrated their products.

Military officials say they are trying to produce a working prototype within the next 12 months. But no contracts have been signed, and the Pentagon has not ventured to make a cost estimate.

The metal suit the Pentagon wants would be all but impervious to bullets and shrapnel, and be able to continuously download and display live video feeds from overhead drones. Relying on tiny motors, the exoskeleton would enable a soldier to run and jump without strain while carrying 100 or more pounds.

It would, at least in theory, be able to stanch minor wounds with inflatable tourniquets — in the unlikely event the armor is breached. It also would carry a built-in oxygen supply in case of poison gas, a cooling system to keep soldiers comfortable and sensors to transmit the wearer’s vital signs back to headquarters.

“They want an Iron Man-like suit; they’ve been quite open about that,” said Adarsh Ayyar, an engineer at BAE Systems, one of the defense contractors seeking to build a working exoskeleton prototype. “You won’t get all of it.

It’s not going to fly. But I think it’s doable.”

Even the project’s formal name is an homage to Iron Man. It’s the “tactical assault light operator suit,” or TALOS, the giant bronze warrior of Greek mythology who defended, not always successfully, the island of Crete from invaders.

Some experts question whether the project represents a misunderstanding of the lessons

of the past dozen years of war, when U.S. soldiers, despite being equipped with technology and weaponry far beyond anything their enemies possessed, were dueled to a virtual draw in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“When the U.S. military entered the global war on terror, it was infatuated with technology and believed that it wins wars,” said Andrew Bacevich, a retired Army colonel who now, as a Boston University professor, is critical of recent wars. “The experience in Iraq and Afghanistan ought to have destroyed any such expectation, but this [project] suggests it is still true.”

Armored suits, of course, go back to ancient times. The updated model may sound outlandish, but with its super-sized budgets, the Pentagon has a history of developing cuttingedge technology — drones, stealth aircraft, precision-guided missiles and global positioning satellites, to name a few — that transformed the battlefield and the world.

An animated video produced this year by the Army’s Research, Development and Engineering Command shows a soldier fully encased in heavy armor running down a narrow alley in a mud-walled village that could be Iraq or Afghanistan. Behind a huge wooden door unseen bad guys await, only the barrels of their four AK-47s visible.

Suddenly the soldier — who oddly isn’t carrying a weapon — smashes through the door and stands menacingly as dozens of rounds bounce harmlessly off his suit and helmet.

The screen fades to black. “To be continued … ,” it says.

At least part of the scenario is real. In October, Navy SEALs raided a compound along the coast of Somalia on a mission to capture a leader of the terrorist group al-Shabab. But they were forced to retreat to their boats and abandon the mission when they came under heavy gunfire.

Describing the TALOS suit at a conference of engineers and defense executives in Tampa, Fla., in August, Adm. William McRaven, a Navy SEAL and head of the Special Operations Command, urged them to think about a special operations soldier preparing to assault a house.

“He has to open that door not knowing what’s on the other side,” McRaven said.

“He’s got to be able to shoot, move and communicate. He’s got to be able to survive in that environment. … If we invest in the TALOS suit, it will reduce the operation’s risks and therefore the operation’s costs.”

How much of this is Hollywood and how much is truly possible is uncertain, designers acknowledge. There is no prototype, only a smorgasbord of ideas and off-the-shelf components that still need to be combined into a suit for actual combat.

“I don’t think we’ll solve every one of these goals immediately,” says James Guerts, the head of acquisition for the Special Operations Command. “But we want to always be out ahead of technology.”

On Internet, U.S. proving adept, inept at same time

By Seth Borenstein

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — When it comes to computers, the Obama administration appears simultaneously to be a bungling amateur and a stealthy wizard. The same government that reportedly intercepted the communications of America’s leading consumer technology firms, Google and Yahoo, without leaving a trace is scorned because it can’t build a working federal website for health insurance.

In a single day in the nation’s capital, extremes of the impressive successes and stunning failures of the Internet age were on full display.

Computer professionals said the government can be both adept and inept at the same time because the tasks are so different and for reasons involving who is doing it, for how much money, how long it takes and how publicly it is done.

Under a classified project called MUSCULAR, the National Security Agency has secretly broken into the main communications links that connect Google and Yahoo data centers around the world, The Washington Post reported Wednesday, citing documents obtained from former NSA systems analyst Edward Snowden. In the past 30 days, the NSA swept up and processed more than 180 million new records, including metadata indicating who sent and received emails and when it happened, the Post reported.

Across town, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius was apologizing to Congress over the bungled healthcare.gov website. New documents obtained by The Associated Press showed that officials had worried that a lack of website testing posed a potentially high security risk. In yet another conflict-riddled Capitol Hill hearing, a congressman told Sebelius that she had put Americans’ personal financial information at risk.

The difference? National priorities, including big differences in how much the government spends, plus the talent and expertise of the people the government hires.

The NSA’s annual budget was just more than $7 billion in fiscal 2013, according to budget documents leaked by Snowden. The budget for the entire Health and Human Services Department was less than $1 trillion, and it spent $118 million on the website plus about $56 million on other IT to support the website, Sebelius said Wednesday.

The NSA is famous for employing small focused teams of highly talented, highly recruited experts with special skills, said Chris Wysopal, a former hacker who is chief technology officer for Veracode in Burlington, Mass. But the Health and Human Services Department’s website designers? “They are sort of your average developers,” he said.

Ex-hacker Marc Maiffret, who once wore his hair green in spikes and is the chief technology officer at BeyondTrust of San Diego, said Beltway contractors who work on civilian technology projects usually are overbudget and underperforming. Teams putting together large IT systems are complex and must coordinate across different government agencies, insurance companies, states and contractors.

“They may have underestimated the complexity when they started on it, which is again not surprising,” said Purdue University computer science professor Gene Spafford.

Motivation is important too. Patriotic hacking on behalf of the NSA is exciting, especially among the mostly young and mostly male demographic.

“Breaking in, it feels like special ops,” Wysopal said.

“Building something feels probably like you’re in the Corps of Engineers. You’re just moving a lot of dirt around.”

It’s also widely understood to be easier to break something down than to build it. Siphoning the Google and Yahoo data is simpler to do than building a secure website for millions of people to get health care, Wysopal and Maiffret said.

Besides, if the NSA had failed to collect all the data it wanted during a classified mission, few people would learn about it — unlike what happened almost immediately when the health care website was launched and immediately experienced problems, said Matt Green, a computer science professor at Johns Hopkins University.

“If the NSA doesn’t do something, you and I don’t hear about it,” Green said.

The government generally spends more money researching how to attack, not defend, computers, said Spafford, director of the Center for Education and Research in Information Assurance and Security at Purdue. The apparent contradiction between health care and the NSA, Spafford said, “is what makes computers magical.”

Concussion calls for learning break Report cites dangers of classroom on injured brain

By Barbara Williams and Patricia Alex

The Record (Hackensack, N.J.)

HACKENSACK, N.J. — A concussion shouldn’t just keep children and teenagers out of sports while they recover — it may also require a break from the classroom, according to a new report by the American Academy of Pediatrics.

The report, released Sunday, stressed the importance of avoiding intellectual stimulation while concussion symptoms are at their worst. The report noted that there is increasing evidence that using a concussed brain to learn “may worsen concussion symptoms and perhaps even prolong recovery.”

Doctors, researchers and educators have long noticed that students with concussions can find it challenging to learn, read or remember previously learned material.

But the report went further, stating: “The school environment may also increase symptoms with exposure to bright lights and screens or noisy cafeterias and hallways.”

Dr. Howard Mazin, a pediatrician at Englewood Hospital and Medical Center in New Jersey, said he agreed with the report’s recommendations. “Everyone needs to understand that the student should not only avoid the activity that

caused the concussion, but all activities that utilize the brain need to be reintroduced slowly,” he said.

The academy offered a sample policy describing the accommodations that students with concussions might need, which include rest breaks, reduced school hours, homework help and more time for tests and assignments. Reading, writing and computer time might need to be limited, the policy suggested, and early dismissal may help injured students avoid crowded hallways. The report recommended that classroom time be reintroduced in small increments, such as 30-minute sessions.

The average recovery time for a schoolage student is three weeks from injury.

“What we’ve seen over the last several years is borne out in this study — intellectual rest is just as important as physical rest,” said Dr. Stephen Thompson, chief of pediatric neurology at Hackensack University Medical Center.

Even seemingly benign activities such as watching a television sitcom require the brain to work, according to Thompson.

“Passive forms of entertainment still engage the brain — processing the storyline, listening, the brain is still working,” he said.

Convincing parents, educators and even the injured child that full participation in school should not resume quickly sometimes proves difficult because the child often appears healthy, doctors said. But physicians now know that even when the

child seems to be symptom-free, the brain is still healing.

“They appear physically well so they think they’re better,” Thompson said. “But when the brain is injured, it doesn’t process things as quickly, and they struggle to do their class work and assignments.”

High schools and youth sports teams have been under pressure in recent years to sideline athletes with concussions until they are healed.

Recent research into concussions among children, whether they occur on the ball field or the playground or because of an accident, has focused on the significant danger of reinjuring the brain before a concussion has fully healed. Called “second impact syndrome,” it can cause permanent damage to a growing brain.

But this is the first report on the dangers of classroom and other intellectual activities to a concussed brain. The academy noted that there is relatively little research into the issue and called for further study to improve the understanding of the best ways to help students recovering from a concussion.

Nearly 500,000 emergency room visits nationwide each year are due to brain injuries in children age 14 and younger.

Immediate symptoms of a concussion include headache, nausea, lightheadedness and numbness or tingling in the extremities. But symptoms that linger or show up days later may be more difficult to explain, especially for young children, experts say.

Survey: Kids tech-savvier, but have less ‘screen time’ SAN FRANCISCO — Stuck figuring out your favorite mobile game app?

Try asking your nearest toddler; she just might know how to help. More than onethird — 38 percent, to be exact — of children younger than 2 have used a mobile device, up from 11 percent two years ago, according to a national survey being released by the media-monitoring and advocacy group Common Sense Media.

At the same time, young children are spending less time watching TV. The survey of 1,463 parents found that threequarters of children ages 0 to 8 had access

to mobile devices, both smartphones and Internet-connected devices like tablet computers and iPod Touches. The proportion of young children using the devices nearly doubled, from 38 percent two years ago to 72 percent, and average duration of use tripled from 5 to 15 minutes daily.

The percentage of young children who are using mobile devices every day doubled, from 8 percent to 17 percent.

Children up to age 8 spend an average 1 hour and 55 minutes a day in front of video screens, including televisions. That’s on average 21 minutes less than they did

two years ago. Half, or 57 minutes, of screen time is spent watching TV, a drop of 9 minutes a day from two years ago.

The survey found that slightly less than half, or 48 percent, of children younger than 2 are read to daily. One-quarter is read to weekly, and 19 percent never.

But what does a tot do on a smartphone? Parents’ answers: a 10-month-old girl plays Angry Birds; a 2-year-old boy plays Jake and the Neverland Pirates and a 2-year-old girl watches Potty Time.

Keep talks about school shootings reassuring, brief

A

radio talk show recently called to ask how parents should explain school shootings to their kids.

My answer: It depends. I prefer, for the most part, for parents to say nothing unless their children ask questions. And then, when a child asks, for parents to say as little as possible. My rule of thumb has always been to give children only the information they need, when they absolutely need it.

An aside: The selectivity of this question says more about the media’s tendency to create drama than any real need on the part of children. For example, when 10 children are killed in a school John bus accident somewhere, no one in Rosemond the media calls to ask me how parents should explain school bus accidents.

Living With Children To “explain” school shootings to a child who has not asked questions about them accomplishes nothing of value and is very likely to cause a sharp spike in anxiety. After all, it is a given that the parent in question is explaining because he or she is anxious, and it is also a given that anxious parents precipitate anxiety in children.

The question, then, becomes: What should a parent say about school shootings if a child has heard and expresses worry about them? Under those circumstances, the response should be reassuring (“Your school is safe”) and brief because lots of words can confuse a child and lead, again, to anxiety.

Something along these lines, perhaps: “There are people in the world who do bad things. Sometimes these people are bad and sometimes they’re just confused. This is a very bad thing that’s happened. No one understands these things very well. I certainly don’t.” u What if a child asks what he should do if a shooting occurs at his school?

Common sense dictates that the parent should say, “You should follow instructions from your teacher. Do what your teacher tells you to do.” u What about kidnappings? Shouldn’t parents warn their children about the possibility of a kidnapping?

That’s a special category because there are things children can do to prevent being kidnapped. My mom warned me of kidnappers. She told me to never get in cars with, allow myself to be led by or accept candy from strangers. That warning saved my life when I was 5 years old and a man tried to lure me into his car with the promise of a soda if I would direct him to a certain store. I immediately turned and ran and the man sped off.

My mother — single at the time — said she was proud of me for following her instructions. She went around the neighborhood telling the other parents what had happened and also, of course, told the police. I remember a policeman coming to our house and asking me for a description of the man and his car. I’m sure there was increased vigilance in the neighborhood for the next few weeks, but all the kids were out playing the next day. I’m sure it worried my mother greatly, but she never let on. Thanks, Ma.

Mills’ historic race captured in clay Olympic runner visits Pojoaque studio to see piece in progress

By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

Olympic gold medalist Billy Mills looked up at the brown clay statue that depicts him running in the Olympic race he won 49 years ago. He becomes teary-eyed, though he doesn’t want to admit it.

“I wasn’t ready for it,” he said. “It’s not about Billy, it’s about dreams.”

Mills, 75, was referring to his youthful dream of winning the 10,000-meter race in the Olympics, a feat he accomplished in the 1964 Summer Games in Tokyo. To date, Mills remains the only American to win the 10,000-meter race at the Olympics, and the member of the Oglala Lakota tribe was the second Native American to win an Olympic medal. That distinction is part of what inspired Pojoaque Pueblo Gov. George Rivera to create a statue honoring Mills’ accomplishments.

Rivera said he will cast a mold of the clay statue to cre-

ate a bronze version that will go outside Rock Chalk Park, a new athletic facility at Mills’

alma matter, the University of Kansas.

The statue, which is just

under 12 feet tall, doesn’t stand so much as it floats. The statue’s arms and legs are angled to mimic Mills’ lengthy gait in the Olympic race. The final product, Rivera said, will have a curved steel support stretching from the body to a base that will keep the figure suspended in air, thereby replicating a moment when Mills was completely airborne in the final 100 meters of the race.

The statue’s base will feature an eagle and an arrowhead.

Rivera spent months on a smaller version of the Mills statue, and on Sunday, that metal prototype sat in the studio next to a laptop computer playing footage of the historic 1964 race. Rivera and those gathered watched the video at least three times as Mills answered interview questions, but it’s the sort of clip that’s endlessly rewatchable.

It starts with an announcer who lists the front-runners and describes Mills as “a man no one expects to win this particular event.” Mills, then a lieutenant in the Marines Reserve, was considered a long shot given that he only finished second in the U.S. Olympic trials.

The favorite was Austra-

lian Ron Clarke, who held the world record at the time.

But Mills hung with Clarke throughout the race, even as the majority of competitors slowed. It wasn’t until the final stretch of the last lap that Mills surged past Clarke and Mohammed Gammoudi of Tunisia, claiming the gold and making history. He also set a new Olympic record in the 10,000-meter race (25 laps around a track) with a time of 28:24.4, which was 50 seconds faster than he had ever run the race.

Rivera’s studio was lined Sunday with dozens of pictures of Mills during the race, and he claimed that he must have watched the race more than 100 times to recreate every detail, from the position of Mills’ legs and arms to the Olympian’s straining shoulder muscles.

Other photos focus on Mills’ raised arms as he crosses the finish line, but Rivera said he wanted to recreate the moment that Mills sprinted past Clarke and Gammoudi.

“Very few humans can do that,” Rivera said. “I wanted that intensity.”

Bomb squad determines suspicious briefcase at City Hall wasn’t dangerous The Santa Fe Police Department closed Lincoln Avenue between Federal Place and Marcy Street for several hours Sunday to investigate a suspicious package that turned out to be an empty briefcase.

Lt. Andrea Dobyns, a spokeswoman with the department, said a public safety aide spotted the black briefcase near a planter on the Lincoln Avenue side of City Hall at about 1:30 p.m. Police closed the street, cordoned off a section of City Hall and called the bomb squad.

Dobyns said the police department calls the bomb squad in cases

involving “abandoned property that’s not easily identifiable.”

Later in the evening, police used the bomb squad robot to X-ray the briefcase and found the case was empty. A bomb technician then opened the briefcase without incident. Police reopened Lincoln Avenue at about 5:30 p.m.

It’s unclear who left the briefcase outside City Hall, or why, but police did say the owner can claim it at the main police station, 2515 Camino Entrada. The owner will not face charges, police said Sunday afternoon.

It would also require the SEC to study whether its rule would resolve a problem not adequately addressed by current regulations. Wagner said the rules being proposed by the SEC and the Labor Department were “likely to impose tremendous new burdens on Main Street businesses and will take choices away from hardworking families” seeking to invest. An opponent, Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., said the bill “is going to interrupt the Department of Labor as they are pulling together a rule to protect retirees” by preventing conflicts of interest by financial advisers who fail to inform their clients about high fees and hidden commissions in investment vehicles. The vote, on Oct. 29, was 254 yeas to 166 nays.

Yeas: Pearce Nays: Lujan Grisham, Luján

House vote 5 Swaps trades and banks: The House has passed the Swaps Regulatory Improvement Act (HR 992), sponsored by Rep. Randy Hultgren, R-Ill. The bill would repeal limits on the ability of banks to hold positions in commodity and financial swaps markets. Hultgren said repealing the limits would improve the ability of farmers and manufacturers to use swaps to manage their exposure to volatile future prices of oil and crop products by enabling banks to serve as counterparties to swap trades.

An opponent, Rep. Collin C. Peterson, D-Minn., said allowing banks to hold large levels of swaps assets “would effectively gut important financial reforms and put taxpayers potentially on the hook for big banks’ risky behavior” should the swaps produce large losses for banks.

Peterson is the ranking Demo-

crat on the House Agriculture Committee; Hultgren is a member of the House Financial Services Committee. The vote, on Oct. 30, was 292 yeas to 122 nays.

Yeas: Pearce Nays: Lujan Grisham, Luján

House vote 6 Debt limit suspension: The House has passed a resolution (HJ Res 99), sponsored by Rep. Todd C. Young, R-Ind., to express the disapproval of Congress of the president’s exercise of his authority to suspend the government’s debt limit. Young said the disapproval resolution signaled the intent of Congress to act to address the government’s increasing debt burden and the damage the burden is doing to the U.S. economy. An opponent, Rep. Sander M. Levin, D-Mich., said passing the resolution would bring back the risk that the U.S. will default on its debt.

The vote, on Oct. 30, was 222 yeas to 191 nays.

Yeas: Pearce Nays: Lujan Grisham, Luján

Senate votes Senate vote 1

National labor relations board: The Senate has confirmed the nomination of Richard F. Griffin Jr. to serve as general counsel of the National Labor Relations Board for a four-year term. A supporter, Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, said Griffin “is very well qualified.

He has been thoroughly vetted.

I have received absolutely not one objection to his qualifications or his background. He has had 30 years’ experience as a labor lawyer.” An opponent, Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., said that as general counsel, Griffin would help put the Board in the position of advocating for unions rather than have it serve as a neutral umpire for settling

employee-employer disputes.

The vote, on Oct. 29, was 55 yeas to 44 nays.

Yeas: Sen. Martin Heinrich, D-N.M., Sen. Tom Udall, D-N.M.

Senate vote 2 Managing government personnel: The Senate has confirmed the nomination of Katherine Archuleta to serve as director of the Office of Personnel Management for a four-year term. A supporter, Sen. Tom Carper, D-Del., cited Archuleta’s experience as a senior policy adviser at the Energy Department and as deputy chief of staff and chief of staff at the Transportation Department.

Carper said installing Archuleta as director of OPM would help it resolve backlogs in its processing of personnel paperwork and managing the government’s workforce. An opponent, Sen. David Vitter, R-La., did not discuss Archuleta’s qualifications, but instead cited the OPM’s issuance of what he called an illegal rule that ran contrary to “Obamacare” legislation by exempting congressional staffers from a requirement to buy their health care through Obamacare exchanges. The vote, on Oct. 30, was 62 yeas to 35 nays.

Yeas: Heinrich, Udall

Senate vote 3 Head of federal housing finance agency: The Senate has rejected a cloture motion to end debate on the nomination of Melvin L. Watt to serve as director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency. A supporter, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., cited Watts’ 21 years of experience as a representative and member of the House Financial Services Committee, and 22 previous years of experience as a lawyer who worked on housing issues. Warren said Watt “is a thoughtful policymaker.

He can see problems coming,

and when he does, he seeks common ground and works hard to develop real solutions.”

An opponent, Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-Okla., said that as director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, Watts would expand the government’s already excessive involvement in the home mortgage market; the government guarantees 48 percent of outstanding mortgages. The vote, on Oct. 31, was 56 yeas to 42 nays, with a three-fifths majority required to end debate.

Yeas: Heinrich, Udall

Senate vote 4 D.C. Circuit Court judge: The Senate has rejected a cloture motion to end debate on the nomination of Patricia Ann Millett to serve as U.S. Circuit Judge for the District of Columbia Circuit. A supporter, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., cited Millett’s 11 years of experience as an official in the Solicitor General’s office, unanimously well qualified rating from the American Bar Association, and experience arguing 32 cases before the Supreme Court in her current position as co-head of the Supreme Court and appellate practice at the Akin Gump law firm. An opponent, Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, said the D.C. Circuit Court did not need an additional judge at this time, given that the court’s caseload is low and each additional judgeship costs $1 million annually.

Grassley also said the nomination of Millett was an effort by President Barack Obama “to stack the court and to upset the current makeup simply in order to obtain favorable judicial outcomes” in the face of opposition to his administration’s actions from Congress. The vote, on Oct. 31, was 55 yeas to 38 nays, with 3 voting present, and a threefifths majority required to end debate.

COMMENTARY: KATELYN FOSSETT

Women take wheel in Saudi Arabia

S

audi Arabia’s ban on female drivers has prompted some pretty outrageous justifications — and that was before the recent demonstrations, in which 60 women got behind the wheel in a rolling protest. One leading Saudi cleric argued that women ran the risk of damaging their ovaries and pelvises when they drove cars, increasing the possibility of giving birth to children with “clinical problems.”

But perhaps none of these reasons is more ludicrous than the one charging that female drivers would increase car accidents.

The kingdom actually has one of the planet’s worst safety records. Indeed, the biggest argument against the ban could be Saudi drivers’ atrociously high road accident death toll, consistently rating among the highest in the world.

According to the most recent World Health Organization figures, Saudi Arabia has the 21st-highest roadrelated death toll in the world, but that number becomes even more exceptional when you look at the group of countries that are faring worse.

The countries with the worst fatalities are overwhelmingly low-income countries, with the South Pacific island of Niue registering the highest number.

The fact that a lot of these countries struggle with basic road infrastructure and an inadequate police force to enforce traffic laws makes the number in Saudi Arabia, a wealthy country, even more striking. Saudi Arabia has the highest accident-related death toll among high-income countries.

A 2013 study by the kingdom’s General Directorate of Traffic found that 19 people die per day in traffic-related fatalities in Saudi Arabia, predicting that if current rates continue, by 2030, 4 million people will die annually in a

Food allergies can be deadly D Saudi Arabia has a pretty wellregistered case of reckless driving, affected by what commentators call “tufush,” a national boredom among young men. car accident there.

The biggest reason for the high rates is simply reckless driving — the report has found in past years that a third of all car accidents in the kingdom are cause by drivers jumping red lights, and 18 percent were caused by illegal U-turns.

In an interview with Arab News in September, the associate vice president and transportation systems director of Middle East Operations at traffic management consultancy Iteris Inc., Glenn N. Havinoviski, said infrastructure wasn’t an issue, but “when you see people turning left out of the far right lane and traffic cutting through parking lots and frontage roads, there are clearly some issues with discipline.”

Saudi Arabia has a pretty

well-registered case of reckless driving, affected by what commentators call tufush, a national boredom among the country’s young men that stems from chronic unemployment and the constraints of ultraconservative social mores.

This boredom has reportedly spawned a thriving underground car culture, in which wealthier men dragrace high-end cars and lowerclass men “drift” cars through traffic.

The scene has led observers to compare the streets of Saudi Arabia to a mix of Death Race and The Fast and the Furious. Of course, the relationship between a culture of reckless driving and the allmale Saudi driver base could be more than coincidental: A recent U.S. study by Quality

Planning, a firm that conducts research for insurance companies, found that men were 3.4 times as likely as women to be ticketed for reckless driving and 3.1 more times as likely to get a ticket for drunken driving.

At least 16 women have been fined for defying the ban on driving in Saudi Arabia in recent demonstrations, but a post on the campaign’s Facebook page vowed that women in the country would keep up the protest.

A Saudi woman who was filmed driving during the demonstrations told Reuters, “Yesterday there were lots of police cars so I didn’t take the risk. I only took the wheel for a few minutes. Today I drove and nobody stopped me. For sure I will drive every day doing my normal tasks.”

If the current state of driving in Saudi Arabia is any indication, that kind of resolve from other women might be the best thing for the country’s public safety.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Dropping Anti-Fan is loss for paper

F

ie on you for dropping Jim Gordon’s The Anti-Fan column from The New Mexican’s Sports section. It has been one of the most insightful and provocative sports columns I have read anywhere, much less in a mediocre newspaper like The New Mexican. Certainly the quality of writing provided by The Anti-Fan exceeds by far anything else found in your entire newspaper, much less the sports section. So why do you decide to delete the best to make room for more mediocrity?

True to his word Here’s why I want Javier Gonzales to be our mayor: His family has lived in Santa Fe for generations. His father, George, was our mayor. He deeply cares about our quality of life and blend of cul-

tures. He was our county commissioner for two terms and knows how to get things done.

He chaired the New Mexico Highlands University Board of Regents and knows how to achieve unity.

He’s a sustainability expert and a successful accountant, and he knows how to balance a budget.

He chaired the New Mexico Democratic Party and works well with our state leaders. He chaired the National Association of Counties and has relationships that can help bring good jobs to our city.

He has two teenage daughters and cares deeply about education.

Most of all, he listens, is true to his word, has a big heart and is a very nice guy.

search “Rendell,” the lobbyist).

Yes, a preliminary Department of Energy study found that fracking fluid couldn’t reach groundwater — where a mile of bedrock separated the two. Even Department of Energy staff say the study applies to just eight Pennsylvania wells (Associated Press; bigstory.ap.org, search “fracking water”).

Industry insiders claim such stories prove fracking is harmless. But if so, why is the industry so evasive?

Secret lists of fracking chemicals make legal responsibility impossible to prove; contamination victims are gagged (as are their doctors, under Pennsylvania’s Act 13); drillers are exempted from major laws.

Unless industry kicks its addiction to spin, public fears will remain — and should.

ealing with food allergies in the nation’s schools too often is a decision made at the campus level — without input from health experts about best practices and in a climate where the school nurse has gone the way of the dinosaur because of budget cuts.

Now, the federal government has issued its first-ever guidelines detailing how best to protect children with food allergies. The guidelines are voluntary, but give all schools — public and private — a common-sense way to protect children. Recommendations include restricting nuts, shellfish and other foods that can cause allergic reactions, and keeping a supply of emergency allergy medicine stocked (epinephrine, anyone?).

Some 15 states already have policies, and so do individual schools and districts, but the guidelines offer a more standardized way of dealing with life-threatening allergic reactions. (While it’s not an honor-roll state in dealing with allergies and asthma, New Mexico ranks fairly high in being prepared for emergencies.)

With 1 in 20 U.S. children estimated to have food allergies (some groups estimate 1 in 13), according to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it’s smart to put precautions in place. The problem is growing, too. The CDC estimates that food allergies are up some 50 percent from the late 1990s, an upward spiral that remains unexplained.

Prevention strategies include everything from identifying children with food allergies, having a plan in place to prevent exposure and manage reactions, training staff to use EpiPens, and planning parties and field trips that exclude allergens to ensure that all students can take part in activities. (For example, don’t do hands-on math projects by counting peanuts).

The guidelines, prompted by a 2011 federal law, offer individual schools, districts and states the opportunity to review policies and make sure they are ready for the unexpected.

Some states, prompted by children’s deaths, are doing more.

These states are requiring schools to stock epinephrine pens and allow school staff to administer the remedy without a prescription. People who do so in life-threatening situations can’t be sued, either.

Now, national legislation — the School Access to Emergency Epinephrine Act — is under consideration and should be enacted into law. It passed the House last summer and is in the U.S. Senate (SB 1503). After all, some 20 percent to 25 percent of attacks requiring epinephrine occur in children or adults who have not been diagnosed, according to the Food Allergy Research and Education think tank. It makes sense to have a remedy on hand for life-threatening emergencies.

Of course, families are responsible for protecting children. They should make sure the school and teachers know of their child’s allergy. Children should know not to share food or drinks and which foods to avoid. A doctor’s plan detailing what to do in case of emergency should be on file.

An EpiPen should be in place at the school, either in the office or with the nurse.

But accidents happen — and for those times, having sound policy and treatment on hand can mean lives are saved. Voluntary guidelines are an important step forward.

A federal law guaranteeing access to epinephrine and sound local policies will safeguard even more children.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Nov. 4, 1913: It was to be expected that the Raton Range would feel outraged at the action of the board of equalization in the matter of raising the assessment on the lands in the county of Colfax.

The “outraged public mind” of Colfax County may cause “a great revolt,” as the Raton Range suggests. And it will be a good thing, as it will bring out the facts as they should be brought out, and will give insight into the methods that have been pursued to keep the assessment of certain lands where the owners want them held, and where they have been placed up to the present time.

Nov. 4, 1963: The state Supreme Court today heard final arguments concerning the state’s attempt to retrieve $300,000 paid out of state funds in 1955-58 to drought-stricken ranchers in New Mexico, and then took the case under advisement. The money, the state said, was in the form of a donation and a gratuity — the donation making it unconstitutional and the gratuity making it retrievable by the state. The suit is against 42 New Mexico ranchers who received the funds and refused to pay them back to the state.

Coltrane lived in Dix Hills, Long Island, for several years until his death in 1967. The jazz saxophonist wrote the masterpiece A Love Supreme in an upstairs bedroom.

Now volunteers are trying to raise money to renovate the dilapidated brick ranch. They want to create a museum and learning center.

JOHANNESBURG — Nelson Mandela was amused by the elaborate makeup process a British actor went through to play him in a film based on his autobiography, the movie’s producer said Saturday of a special screening for the former South African president last year.

“Is that me?” Anant Singh, the South African producer of Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom, recalled a smiling Mandela as saying when he saw a picture of actor Idris Elba as an elderly version of the man who spent 27 years in jail under white minority rule. After he was freed, Mandela led South Africa through a difficult transition to its first racially inclusive elections in 1994, a historic event that propelled him to the presidency and inspired many around the world.

“I said, ‘Madiba, you really think it’s you?’ ” Singh replied, using Mandela’s clan name. He then explained that Elba sat through more than five hours of makeup before filming even began. Singh had visited Mandela at his home in Qunu, in South Africa’s Eastern Cape province. Mandela, 95, has stayed in a hospital in Pretoria, the capital, several times since December and remains critically ill at his Johannesburg home.

Singh and members of the cast spoke at a news conference in Johannesburg on Saturday hosted by the Nelson Mandela Foundation for the film, which is based on Mandela’s autobiography and will be released in South Africa in late November before opening in the U.S. and other markets.

Naomie Harris, who starred in the James Bond movie Skyfall, plays the role of Winnie Mandela, Mandela’s second wife and a powerful figure in

the anti-apartheid movement in her own right. The couple later divorced.

Zindzi Mandela, one of the couple’s children, said she had seen the movie with her mother and that it was an emotional experience. Mandela, she said, is often defined by his prison experiences and his fight against apartheid, but she was pleased to see that the movie also focuses on the traditional Idris Elba values of hierarchy, structure and discipline that shaped him in his early years in the rural Eastern Cape.

“Those values are what made him better able to face challenges ahead of him,” she said.

Zindzi Mandela said she was particularly moved by a film scene in which she and her sister are left alone, with both their parents in detention.

She said the sequence evoked “the absence of a father and the absence of a mother and the absence of a normal family life.”

Singh said Winnie, whose last name is now MadikizelaMandela, turned to him after seeing the movie and said: “It’s beautiful. Don’t change anything. I love it.”

The $35 million film was directed by Justin Chadwick.

It also features actor Tony Kgoroge, who played the role of a presidential security chief in Invictus, the 2009 movie directed by Clint Eastwood that starred Morgan Freeman as Mandela in the period leading up to South Africa’s World Cup rugby title in 1995. This time, Kgoroge plays Walter Sisulu, a longtime associate of Mandela.

Elba did not attend the news conference because he was ill.

Kgoroge praised Elba’s performance as Mandela, describing him as “very hungry” and “looking forward to going into the depth of his character.”

Neal plans to trim Lobos’ player rotation

Kenyans take titles at NYC Marathon

It’s time for the good cop to start playing the bad guy.

Folksy first-year University of New Mexico men’s basketball coach Craig Neal is vowing to trim his 14-player depth chart to as little as eight or nine by this time next week.

“It was the first time in six years that we played 14 players,” he said.

“It might be the first time we had 14 players. I thought everyone played hard.”

After running everyone who wore a uniform into Saturday night’s exhibition win against Eastern New Mexico in The Pit, Neal said he would pare down his regular rotation in the coming days.

As for the other elements his club needs to improve upon, he said it’s all a matter of adjusting. The Lobos were guilty of 18 personal fouls while trying to get used to the stricter rules that limit a defensive player’s ability to guard.

Center Alex Kirk said he was just happy to get away from the daily grind of practice against the same, familiar faces.

“You get tired of banging into Cam [forward Cameron Bairstow], tired of banging into Big-O [backup center Obij Aget],” he said. “It was good to finally get out there and just be in the atmosphere and be with your teammates. We learned a lot about ourselves [Saturday]. There was definitely a ton of improvement.”

Race returns with record runners after superstorm forced cancellation in 2012

By Rachel Cohen

The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Geoffrey Mutai ran by himself through Central Park, the same scene as the last New York City Marathon.

The race’s return to the five boroughs looked no different from the past in many ways, yet much had changed. The streets were still crammed with runners and the sidewalks with fans, undaunted by the tight security.

Mutai successfully defended his title Sunday, while fellow Kenyan Priscah Jeptoo came from behind to win the women’s race.

Mutai broke the course record in New York two years ago, then the 2012 race never happened because of the destruction from superstorm Sandy. The April bombings at the Boston Marathon bared the vulnerability of an event that packs city streets with people.

So barricades blocked off much of the park, and fans waited in bag-check lines to get in.

Still, there were plenty of spectators to urge on Jeptoo to chase down Buzunesh Deba, a Bronx resident who finished runner-up for the second straight time in her

Johnson wins in Texas, leads Sprint Cup

By Stephen Hawkins The Associated Press

FORT WORTH, Texas — Jimmie Johnson is the leader again in the Chase for the Sprint Cup title after a dominating victory Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway.

The five-time Cup champion knows all too well that his seven-point lead over Matt Kenseth is far from overwhelming with two races left in the season.

Johnson also left the Lone Star State last November with a victory and seven-point lead — and lost the championship to Brad Keselowski.

“I hope history doesn’t Jimmie repeat itself,” Johnson Johnson said. “That is the perfect example of this thing isn’t over until it’s over. Last year, we had eight great races and two bad ones and didn’t get the championship. … There are two very important races left.”

Kenseth and Johnson were tied in points when they got to Texas, though Kenseth was considered the leader based on his seven wins.

Johnson led 255 of 334 laps for his sixth win this season while becoming only the second three-time Cup winner at the highbanked 1½-mile Texas track. The No. 48 Chevrolet finished more than 4 seconds ahead of Hendrick Motorsports teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr. “The 48 was in another class and nobody had anything for them,” said Earnhardt, who had his fifth runner-up finish this season and has been top 10 in all six of the last seven Chase races.

Dallas deters defeat

Cowboys rally after Romo’s late touchdown pass to secure win

By Schuyler Dixon The Associated Press

A

RLINGTON, Texas — Tony Romo got another chance after throwing a lategame interception at home. This time, he came through.

Romo threw for 337 yards and two touchdowns, including the go-ahead score to Dwayne Harris with 35 seconds left, and the Dallas Cowboys beat the Minnesota Vikings 27-23 Sunday.

Romo’s 7-yard pass to Harris answered an 11-yard touchdown by Adrian Peterson that had given Minnesota a 23-20 lead. The East Texas kid raised on the Cowboys had 140 yards rushing in his first game at their $1.2 billion stadium.

The Cowboys (5-4) bounced back from a dev-

astating loss at Detroit by avoiding what probably would have been a more damaging defeat.

“We just have to keep the belief throughout the whole football game,” said Romo, who was 34 of 51. “I never doubted that we would find a way to win this game, and we did it.”

Christian Ponder threw for a touchdown and ran for another score against his hometown team, but it wasn’t enough to avoid a fourth straight loss for the Vikings (1-7).

Romo’s first attempt to answer Peterson’s go-ahead score was intercepted on a great play along the sideline by A.J. Jefferson — and was a reminder of the late pick he threw in Dallas’ only home loss this year.

Dallas didn’t get another shot after that play, with Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos running out the clock and winning 51-48 on a field goal on the final play.

But the Vikings couldn’t convert this late Romo mistake into points and gave him the ball

back at the Dallas 10 with 2:44 remaining.

Dez Bryant had a 34-yard catch that put Dallas in position for at least a tying field goal, which was possible because Blair Walsh missed wide right on the extra point after Peterson’s touchdown. But Romo kept pushing.

He threw 9 yards to Cole Beasley and 5 to Jason Witten, who led Dallas with eight catches for 102 yards. On the next play, Romo found Harris cutting between defenders in the middle of the field, and Harris dived over the goal line.

“I think if you pull back and you really look at Tony Romo’s career, people want to talk about some of these plays where things didn’t work out,” Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said. “But if you really look at his body of work and you look at it objectively, he’s done this kind of stuff a lot.”

Peterson got Minnesota’s go-ahead drive earlier in the quarter going with a 52-yard run, then went

Ballot breakdown: Contenders cry, ‘We want ’Bama!’

By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press

Oregon fans printed it on T-shirts.

Florida State fans chanted it. “We want ’Bama!”

Alabama has been No. 1 all season, and the two-time defending national champion has given little reason to believe this season’s title race won’t go through it. If the Crimson Tide takes care of its business and goes unbeaten through the Southeastern Conference title game, it’ll be off to Pasadena, Calif., in January for a fourth BCS championship game in five years.

The Ducks and Seminoles have been impressive enough to sway a few AP poll voters to have them atop their ballots.

In the latest Top 25, Alabama received a season-low 52 first-place votes. Oregon got two and Florida State received a season-best six

firsts from the media panel Sunday after another easy victory over a previously unbeaten team. This time it was Miami, which was routed by the ‘Noles to the tune of 41-14 in Tallahassee on Saturday night.

After the game, Florida State defensive linemen Timmy Jernigan was asked about the “We want ’Bama!” chants and told USA Today, “We do.”

Well, sure. The Seminoles and Ducks still have more regularseason business to take care of, but at this point they are competing against each as much as the teams they’re lining up against. And if the goal is to be No. 1, the way to get there is to beat Alabama.

The chants and shirts seem to rankle some Tide fans, who generally respond with some combination of “be careful what you wish for” and “don’t you have more

important things to do, like beating the remaining teams on your schedule?”

While on the surface Alabama is the target of Oregon and Florida State fans’ desires, really they might as well be yelling at each other.

“We want ’Bama.”

“No, we want ’Bama.”

Surely, Ohio State fans would chime in, too.

Alabama fans should probably take it as a compliment. It’s good to be wanted. Nobody chants, “We want Florida!” or “We want Nebraska!” these days.

Moving up Michigan State jumped six spots to No. 18 in the rankings after putting a brutal beating on Michigan The Spartans’ defense put a relentless pounding on Michigan quarterback Devin Gardner and the rest of the Wolverines in the 29-6 victory. Michigan had minus-48

yards rushing, a number built on sacks and a bad snap, but not the slightest bit misleading.

Michigan State was pushing Michigan backward just about all day.

Moving down Miami dropped seven spots to No. 14 after getting blown out by Florida State, but that is the least of the Hurricanes’ troubles.

Star running back Duke Johnson was injured and will miss the season with a broken ankle. Miami will be without top receiver Phillip Dorsett because of a knee injury for at least a few more weeks. And as big as the Florida State game was, the next game is actually even bigger for the Hurricanes. in and out Michigan fell out of the rankings again after losing to Michigan State for the fifth time in six seasons. No. 24 Notre Dame replaced the Wolverines.

NBA

Undefeated 76ers build buzz early in season Carter-Williams plays key role in Philly’s success

By Dan Gelston

The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — Winless for Wiggins is out. Flawless in Philly is so in.

Look who’s leading the NBA standings, with a 3-0 record featuring wins over Miami and Chicago. Rub your eyes all you want, the answer — for now — is the awful-to-awesome Philadelphia 76ers.

Yes, this is the same franchise that prompted Las Vegas to set the over-under for total wins this season at 16.5.

There’s an early buzz in Philly over the way The Little Tank Engine That Could has stormed through the elite of the Eastern Conference en route to their best start since 2006-07, when Allen Iverson was running the show, not showing up to announce his retirement.

Just as the sign read Saturday night after their latest win over Chicago, “3-0. That’s No Bull.”

“We’re excited about the victories,” forward Thaddeus Young said, “but the work doesn’t stop here.”

Nope, but the Sixers will enjoy the can-you-believe this victories while they can.

Consider, in a bleak year in Philly sports, the Sixers entered Sunday with one less win than the Flyers (who started Oct. 2) and as many as the Eagles (Sept. 9).

The Sixers can thank three rookies for their start: general

manager Sam Hinkie, coach Brett Brown and point guard Michael Carter-Williams.

With his team mired in mediocrity for a decade, Hinkie was the GM who put the rebuilding plan in place, drafting MCW and trading for Nerlens Noel.

Brown has preached patience — while pushing an up-tempo style that had the Sixers score 100-plus points in all three wins.

And then there’s MCW. If basketball fans weren’t familiar with what the MCW stood for after his 22-point, 12-assist, nine-steal debut on opening night against Miami, they are now. After three games, Carter-Williams has opened eyes around the league, outplaying Washington’s John Wall and Chicago’s Derrick Rose on consecutive nights.

He had 26 points, 10 assists and rallied the Sixers from 18 down in the second half to beat the Bulls on Saturday night.

“I think it’s a point guards’ league,” Brown said, “and I think Michael Carter-Williams is for real.”

He’s gobbled nicknames faster than double-doubles — MCW, of course, and “The Hyphen.”

“Coach gives me a lot of confidence out there,” Carter-Williams said. “I’m able to play freely.”

In his sophomore season at Syracuse, Carter-Williams broke the school record for steals in a season with 111 and finished with 292 assists, the second-highest total in Syracuse history behind only Sherman Douglas’ record of 326 in 1988-89. Carter-Williams also recorded nine double-doubles.

The Sixers thought enough of MCW to pick him 11th in the draft and trade All-Star point guard Jrue Holiday to New Orleans. Who needs to lose 60 games for the top pick if Hinkie and crew prove they can find a gem like MCW at 11?

Even Magic Johnson endorsed Carter-Williams as a rookie to watch.

“I just got done watching the guy I think will be the Rookie

of The Year, Michael CarterWilliams of the 76ers,” Johnson wrote on Twitter.

Johnson’s not the only one hooked on the Sixers — the fans that openly rooted for them to lose so they could potentially select Kansas prospect Andrew Wiggins with the No. 1 pick in the 2014 draft have switched stripes and embraced the team.

The Sixers failed to heed the

message this was supposed to be a rebuilding year — or, in NBA terms, a tanked season.

The comeback fun started on opening night.

They hit their first 11 shots, stormed to a 19-0 start, blew the lead, then rallied in the fourth to top LeBron James and the Heat. Young scored 29 points in a win over the Washington Wizards. And they turned a nine-point hole in the fourth

into a 107-104 win over Chicago.

Last season’s 34-48 team never won three straight.

Carter-Williams, Young, Spencer Hawes and a recharged Evan Turner have keyed the early surge.

But the Sixers are also throwing out combinations that include Tony Wroten, Lavoy Allen and Daniel Orton. Not exactly the next Big Three.

It all seemed like a recipe for the first pick in the draft, not first place in the Atlantic Division.

From his opening news conference, Brown has stressed a commitment to fitness, certain in his belief that a team in shape can run up the score, even if all the talent isn’t yet in place. He wants teams to know they’re in for a physical game when they match up against Philly.

“I think our young guys have reaped the benefit of that,” Brown said. “I feel like that’s helped us put points on the board. I’m surprised we’ve been able to score at the rate they’ve been able to score. I didn’t know they had that in them.”

Up next, is Golden State on Monday night and a chance to go 4-0 for the first time since the 2000-01 season. The Sixers are trying to enjoy the moment, hoping this is not a mirage before they crash to the bottom of the standings.

“The more you can win in adverse situations, it just keeps building on that feeling,” Brown said. “We know that feeling at times in the NBA with young teams is fleeting.

SPORTS GOLF

Johnson wins big in Shanghai The Associated Press

SHANGHAI — It only took four holes over two days for Dustin Johnson to lose a six-shot lead in the HSBC Champions.

All that mattered was the high-powered kick down the stretch Sunday at Sheshan International that brought him the biggest win of his career.

In what felt like the end of a long year and beginning of a new season, Johnson broke loose from a three-way challenge on the back nine by playing a five-hole stretch in 5-under par. Johnson closed with a 6-under 66 for a three-shot win over Ian Poulter to capture his first World Golf Championship title.

“It’s the biggest win I’ve had in my career so far,” he said. “Those guys put a lot of pressure on me. I’m really proud of the way I handled myself.”

One shot behind with six holes to play, Johnson smashed his drive over the corner of a dogleg on the 13th hole that left him a short wedge into 5 feet for birdie to catch Poulter. Right when it looked as though he would fall behind again, Johnson holed a 20-foot birdie putt on the next hole.

CHARLES SCHWAB CUP CHAMPIONSHIP In San Francisco, Fred Couples won the Champions Tour’s season-ending Charles Schwab Cup Championship, and Kenny Perry topped the yearlong points race to earn a $1 million annuity.

Couples ended a 16-event winless streak dating to the Senior British Open in July 2012, closing with a 2-uunder 69 for a six-stroke victory over Bernhard Langer, Peter Senior and Mark O’Meara.

PGA ASSISTANT CHAMPIONSHIP In Port St. Lucie, Fla., Frank Bensel became the second three-time winner in PGA Assistant Championship history, shooting a 3-under 69 in windy conditions for a six-stroke victory.

The 45-year-old Bensel, the PGA assistant professional at Century Country Club in Purchase, N.Y., also won in 2010 and 2011. He matched the record set by Kyle Flinton of Edmond, Okla., the winner in 2002, 2003 and 2005.

Today

NYC: Officials tightened course security Continued from Page B-1 hometown race.

Nobody was catching Mutai, who pulled away around Mile 22 and beat Ethiopia’s Tsegaye Kebede by 52 seconds.

On a windy morning, Mutai’s time of 2 hours, 8 minutes, 24 seconds was well off his course record of 2:05:06 set in nearly perfect conditions two years ago.

He’s the first man to repeat in New York since Kenya’s John Kagwe in 1997-98.

“To defend your title is not easy,” Mutai said. “As you see the course today, the weather today, it was not easy. Even for me, I try all I can, but I was not believing that I can finish like that.”

Jeptoo trailed Deba by nearly 3½ minutes at the halfway point. She made her move as the race entered Manhattan after a race official on a bike told her how big the gap was.

“So I started to push the pace,” she said.

“I was having confidence that I will make it.”

Deba was slowed by stomach cramps, and Jeptoo passed the Ethiopian with just more than 2 miles left. The 2012 Olympic silver medalist and 2013 London Marathon champ, Jeptoo won in 2:25:07 to clinch the $500,000 World Marathon Majors bonus.

Last year’s late cancellation of the event in New York incensed many residents and runners, but there was little sign of those sour feelings Sunday. City and marathon officials initially vowed that the race would go on, and New Yorkers balked at the idea of possibly diverting resources amid such devastation. But by the time the decision to cancel was made, many out-of-town entrants had already traveled to the city.

Plenty came back a year later. A record 50,740 runners started.

The women’s race played out almost identically to the last NYC Marathon two years ago. But this time, Deba was the pursued, not the pursuer.

In 2011, Mary Keitany took a big early lead, and Deba and countrywomen Firehiwot Dado chased her down. Dado, who won that day, was 14th Sunday as the defending champ.

This time, Deba and training partner Tigist Tufa separated themselves right from the start. Deba wound up finishing 48 seconds behind Jeptoo, while Tufa fell back to eighth.

“That’s my plan,” Deba said. “I need to run my best time. My training is very good. I prepared very good.”

Jelena Prokopcuka of Latvia, who won the NYC Marathon in 2005 and ’06,

placed third at age 37, returning to the podium after the birth of her son.

Kebede, the London Marathon champ, clinched the $500,000 bonus for the World Marathon Majors men’s title. South Africa’s Lusapho April was third.

Mutai proved again that when he’s healthy, he’s the best in the world. He ran the fastest marathon in history, 2:03:02 in Boston in 2011, which didn’t count as a world record because the course is too straight and downhill.

Tatyana McFadden of Maryland won the women’s wheelchair race after taking the titles in Boston, London and Chicago in 2013. No other athlete has won those four races in the same year. Marcel Hug of Switzerland was the men’s wheelchair winner.

Runners, professional and amateur, said they felt safe on the course. Security was tight from the moment they arrived at the start. They were corralled into long bagcheck lines, and officers and volunteers repeatedly reminded them to keep cellphones out.

Elizabeth Hutchinson of Seattle recalled the joy at the starting line in Boston this year. People were handing out sunscreen, Band-Aids and energy gels with a smile.

On Staten Island, she said, “the machine guns are very visible.”

Lobos: UNM eliminated from bowl bid Continued from Page B-1

UNM football The Lobos’ loss at San Diego State on Saturday officially eliminated them from bowl contention. Teams are required to finish with at least six wins or have a winning record to get a bowl bid. Now 2-6 overall and 0-4 in the Mountain West Conference, the best New Mexico and its struggling defense can do is finish .500.

The Lobos have lost three in a row and five of their last six. They’ve allowed at least 35 points in all but one of their last seven games.

Up next is a rare Friday night home game against one of the three other MWC teams already eliminated from bowl contention as the Lobos host struggling Air Force (2-7, 0-5). Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m., and the game will be broadcast on ESPNU. UNM will honor former All-American and NFL star Brian Urlacher by retiring his No. 44 in a pregame ceremony.

Hoops is here Monday is the first day high school

teams around the state are allowed to begin preseason basketball practice. The same can be said of wrestling and swimming and diving.

It’s also one of those awkward times where some basketball coaches begin the waiting game as the fall sports seasons enter the home stretch. Soccer’s state tournament ends Nov. 9, the same day as the state cross-country meet. Volleyball wraps up Nov. 16 while football can run as long as the first weekend in December.

Orange barrel alert Speaking of soccer, the annual state tournament will again be at the Albuquerque Public Schools Soccer Complex. Situated across Rainbow Boulevard from Volcano Vista High School on the city’s growing west side, the four-field complex’s main access point is off Paseo del Norte.

That road is undergoing two different upgrades. The first is at its intersection with Interstate 25, the other just as it climbs through the Petroglyphs on the west mesa. With traffic already an issue at that area, it is compounded by the construction that slows speeds to 25 miles per

hour.

Similarly, the New Mexico Activities Association is reminding soccer fans that the APS complex is cash-only for those trying to buy tickets. For more information, see the NMAA’s website at www. nmact.org.

Bracket busters Of the 12 matches played in the opening round of the respective girls soccer state tournament last weekend, lower-seeded teams won half of them. Three of the four games in girls Class AAAA went the way of the underdog, the biggest being No. 12 Santa Fe High’s 3-0 upset of No. 5 Los Lunas.

The Demonettes will face No. 4 Albuquerque Academy in Thursday’s state quarterfinals at the APS complex. The game will start at 2 p.m. on Field 2, the same locale that will house the Capital boys match against Los Lunas at 11:15 a.m.

As for the boys upsets, there weren’t many. Only one, in fact. Tenth-seeded Artesia beat No. 7 Santa Teresa in AAAA. All other 11 matches went to the higher seed.

Cup: Gordon finishes race in 38th place Continued from Page B-1 Joey Logano finished third, ahead of Kenseth while Kasey Kahne, another Hendrick driver, was fifth.

Johnson got his 66th career victory, including a record 24 wins in Chase races.

But he and crew chief Chad Knaus are now in their third season since winning their fifth consecutive championship.

“I’ve been watching a lot of MMA fighting lately, and you’ll fall into a rhythm and think that somebody’s got a fight won, and it doesn’t end that way,” Johnson said.

“It’s how this is going to be. Matt didn’t have maybe the best day, but he still finished fourth. This thing is going to the last lap at Homestead. It’s going to come down to mistakes.”

Kenseth was running second behind Johnson for much of the first half of the race before getting penalized for speeding. That dropped Kenseth to 16th place and more than 28 seconds back, though the No. 20 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota recovered for a top-five finish.

“We were just being too aggressive.

Honestly, the 48 had us … they were just dominant all weekend,” Kenseth said.

“That speeding penalty got us behind us.

We definitely didn’t need that, but really I don’t know at the end of the day that it really affected our finish much.”

At Phoenix, where the Chase goes next Sunday, Johnson is a four-time winner and finished second in March. His average finishing spot of 6.4 there is significantly better than the 17.2 for Kenseth, who has one victory at Phoenix and finished seventh there eight months ago.

“I’m still confident,” Kenseth said.

Kenseth was still running second when Johnson pulled down pit road, a lap before Kenseth came in as the last to pit on a cycle of green-flag stops.

But Kenseth was caught speeding on pit road and had to serve a drive-through penalty. By the time he got back on the track, he was the last car on the lead lap and about 25 seconds further behind than he had been before the two had pitted.

A caution a few laps later got Kenseth up three spots, but more importantly tightened up the field. Within a few laps after the ensuing restart, Kenseth was back in the top 10 and climbing.

By then, Kyle Busch had moved back into second, the same spot he was before a right front tire went down and put into

in the outside wall on lap 57 to bring out a caution. Busch, who won the spring race in Texas, finished 13th.

When Busch went into the wall, he was between Johnson and Kenseth, who went onto pit road 1-2. The top Chase contenders didn’t exit that way.

While Johnson had a quick stop, he was second out behind polesitter Carl Edwards, who had the stall closest to the scoring line. Kenseth has an issue on his stop that dropped him to sixth.

Edwards, who had been the only threetime Cup winner at Texas, led six times for 38 times. But Edwards finished only 187 laps before an engine failure ended his day.

Four-time Cup champion Jeff Gordon, the other Hendrick driver, was in contention for another championship after his win a week earlier at Martinsville moved him up to a season-high third in points.

But on Lap 74, the front left tire on the No. 24 Chevrolet blew, sending Gordon high and hard into the wall between the first and second turns. He returned to the race after repairs and finished in 38th place, 187 laps off the pace. He dropped to sixth the standings, 67 points back.

NFL COMMENTARY

Broncos must find way forward without Fox

By Eddie Pells

The Associated Press

P

art of the understated effectiveness of Broncos coach John Fox has been his steadfast refusal to divulge a scintilla more than necessary about anything.

Injuries. Suspensions. Expectations. Arrests. Denver’s coach has treated them all equally — with a shrug, a smile, a well-worn bromide about how everyone and everything in the NFL is “day-to-day.”

In his mind, offering more than that almost always sidetracks a team. Now, in the strangest twist of all, the most shocking secret he’d never revealed may be the biggest distraction of all for the Broncos, which is saying something.

Oh, certainly, Fox’s medical condition puts football in its proper perspective. He needs aortic valve replacement surgery this week to fix a lingering and dangerous condition he can no longer ignore. It came to

a head during the bye week, when the 58-year-old coaching lifer took a rare day off to play a round of golf near the John home he still Fox owns in North Carolina.

He started feeling dizzy and headed to the hospital.

Before Saturday’s episode, doctors had told him he would need the procedure shortly after Denver’s season was over, which the smart money had pegged for Feb. 3 — the day after the Super Bowl.

A different kind of coach may have let word of a condition like that slip at some point — an empathy inspiring piece of news the media would have snapped up, and one that very well could have turned the season into a “Win One For Foxie” sort of story.

Fox isn’t that guy.

Nothing about his 2003

Super Bowl run in Carolina or his lame-duck, stiff-upper-lip 2-14 season in 2010 emitted even a hint of “look-at-me” grandstanding.

When he was greeted in Denver by an entire, tumultuous season full of Tim Tebow, the coach stayed in character, sticking to the party line that, yes, the kid was a winner even though red flags flew everywhere, all of them suggesting it couldn’t last.

Then Peyton Manning came along, and Fox, ever malleable, kept his ego on the shelf, handed his offense over to the coordinator and quarterback who knew the most about such things and let the fireworks begin.

Once Manning got his footing last season, Denver won 11 straight games. The most impressive part of it was that there was never an off week, never a shred of bulletin-board material, never a hint of dissent or cockiness. The Broncos were the least-interesting, neargreat team in football: Manning

threw the passes. Fox set the tone.

When things did get interesting in the offseason — when Elvis Dumervil left via a fax foul-up, and Von Miller tried to game the NFL drug-testing system, and two high-ranking Broncos executives got arrested for drunken driving, Fox kept smiling and shedding little light.

Maybe some team would come along and be better than Denver on a given day, and, heck, maybe someone would outcoach Fox, the way John Harbaugh did in last year’s playoff loss to Baltimore. But if Fox had any control over it, the Broncos weren’t going to lose because anyone in his locker room handed the opponent the incentive.

Almost as if to bolster the point that less is more, the lone time Fox did speak up this season — calling Colts owner Jim Irsay “ungrateful and unappreciative” for suggesting Manning didn’t do enough for Indianapolis — the Broncos lost. Manning admitted everything surround-

ing his homecoming, part of that dreaded “noise on the outside” Fox always guards against, made for an exhausting week.

The Broncos got things back on track with a win over Washington before the bye week, and though Manning’s ankle and arm are topics of constant conversation, though star cornerback Champ Bailey can’t stay healthy and the defense is vulnerable even with the return of Miller, Fox headed into his mini-vacation refusing to pinpoint any real concerns, beyond his usual generality: “You get concerned with all of it.”

His message to the players before they headed out for their break consisted of his oft-used one-liner: “I don’t want to see your name in the paper unless you win the lottery.”

Turns out, it was the coach’s name in the paper.

So, instead of spending Sunday scouting Kansas City, New England and the few other teams that could undo what Fox and Manning have built

during their 7-1 start, the Broncos pondered a much different kind of uncertainty.

They have an eminently able interim available in Jack Del Rio, who spent nine years in Jacksonville, showing frequent signs of coaching promise even though he never completely tamped down the discord that sporadically pulsed through that far-from-perfect franchise.

Del Rio, the former linebacker who looks as if he could still suit up, exudes a macho sort of intensity that his players like. As an interim, he could be tempted to use his platform to get the Broncos to use their coach’s plight as a rallying point.

If allowed to offer advice from his hospital room, Fox will almost certainly tell Del Rio not to bother with that.

The head coach believes in letting the results speak louder than he does.

Not such a bad plan to fall back on when the coach himself is day-to-day.

Patriots hold off Steelers

Monday, November 4, 2013 THE NEW MEXICAN

Dallas: Cordarrelle fumbles

JETS 26, SAINTS 20

The Associated Press

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Tom Brady threw for season highs of 432 yards and four touchdowns, Rob Gronkowski had a Patriots 55 career-high nine recepSteelers 31 tions, and the Patriots racked up the most points ever scored against Pittsburgh.

Brady had 252 yards passing in the first half, more than he had in five of his other eight games for New England (7-2).

The Patriots piled up 610 yards overall, third most in team history.

Three Patriots had more than 100 yards receiving, Gronkowski with 143, Aaron Dobson with 130 and Danny Amendola with 122.

Pittsburgh (2-6) wasted a solid performance by Ben Roethlisberger, who threw for 400 yards and four touchdowns with two interceptions.

Colts 27, texans 24 In Houston, Texans coach Gary Kubiak collapsed leaving the field at halftime and was taken by ambulance to a hospital, and Indianapolis rallied for a 27-24 victory over Houston on Sunday night.

Kubiak hunched over and dropped to his knees at the 24 yard line and was immediately surrounded by medical personnel. He was lifted off the field on a stretcher and taken by gurney to the ambulance.

The Texans didn’t say what was wrong with Kubiak, but did say he didn’t have a heart attack. The team said the 52-year-old coach was conscious and was with his family as he was taken to the hospital.

Andrew Luck got off to a slow start before throwing three second-half touchdowns to T.Y. Hilton to overcome an 18-point halftime deficit and give the AFC-South-leading Colts (6-2) the victory. eaGles 49, RaIDeRs 20 In Oakland, Calif., Nick Foles tied an NFL mark with seven touchdown passes and threw for 406 yards to revitalize Philadelphia in a victory over the Raiders.

The backup quarterback connected three times with Riley Cooper to become the seventh passer in NFL history with seven TD tosses in a game. Peyton Manning did it for Denver on opening night this season against Baltimore.

Foles also threw scoring passes to Brent Celek, Zach Ertz, LeSean McCoy and DeSean Jackson as the Eagles (4-5) looked nothing like the offense that failed to score a touchdown in each of the past two weeks.

Foles completed 22 of 28 passes as he frequently exploited mismatches and blown coverages, starting with a 42-yard screen pass to Cooper on the opening drive when the Raiders (3-5) had two defenders trying to match up with three receivers. seaHaWKs 27, BUCCaneeRs 24 (ot) In Seattle, Steven Hauschka kicked a 27-yard field goal with 8:11 left in overtime, and the Seahawks overcame a 21-point deficit to beat the Buccaneers for their greatest comeback in franchise history.

Trailing 21-0, Russell Wilson rallied Seattle (8-1). He threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to Doug Baldwin with 1:51 left in regulation to pull the Seahawks even. Wilson then led Seattle on a nine-play, 51-yard drive in overtime capped by Hauschka’s winner.

Tampa Bay fell to 0-8 for the first time since 1985 when the Buccaneers started the season 0-9. Mike James rush for a careerbest 158 yards for the Buccaneers.

BRoWns 24, RaVens 18 In Cleveland, Jason Campbell threw three touchdown passes — two to Davone Bess — and the Browns ended an 11-game losing streak against Baltimore.

Campbell’s 3-yard pass to Bess on fourth down with three minutes left helped the Browns (4-5) seal their first win over Baltimore since 2007.

The Ravens (3-5) lost their third straight and didn’t win in the week following a bye for the first time in six tries under coach John Harbaugh. Baltimore’s Joe Flacco had a pair of TD passes to rookie Marlon Brown.

Flacco finished 24 of 41 for 250 yards.

PantHeRs 34, FalCons 10 In Charlotte, N.C., Cam Newton threw for one touchdown and ran for another to overcome a shaky start, the defense intercepted Matt Ryan three times, and Carolina beat the Falcons for its fourth straight victory.

Newton had two first half interceptions and wasn’t sharp on his deep balls, regularly overthrowing his receivers. Yet he bounced back to throw for 249 yards, including a 14-yard touchdown pass to tight end Greg Olsen. He also ran for an 8-yard touchdown for the Panthers (5-3).

Fullback Mike Tolbert scored his fifth touchdown in the last four games on a 4-yard burst and cornerback Drayton Florence intercepted Ryan and returned it 38 yards for a score to seal the win.

ReDsKIns 30, CHaRGeRs 24 (ot) In Landover, Md., Darrel Young scored three times, including a 4-yard run in overtime that gave the Redskins a win over the Chargers.

Young stormed his way into the end zone 6:01 into the extra period, with the Redskins scoring on their first drive after winning the coin toss at the end of regulation.

Washington blew a 10-point lead in the final minutes of the fourth quarter, but a goal-line stand at the 1-yard line helped send the game to overtime. tItans 28, RaMs 21 In St. Louis, Chris Johnson ran for 150 yards and two touchdowns and the Titans got the best of Jeff Fisher, who coached them for 16 seasons, and the Rams.

Johnson’s 19-yard scoring run snapped a tie with 2:54 to go and came a snap after Jurrell Casey sacked and stripped quarterback Kellen Clemens, and Derrick Morgan recovered.

The Rams (3-6) got a second straight 100yard game from rookie Zac Stacy, who had 127 yards on 27 carries and two touchdowns.

Saints shut out Nick Folk, defense aid New York in victory over New Orleans

By Dennis Waszak Jr.

The Associated Press

E

AST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The New Orleans Saints knew exactly what to do against the New York Jets.

The plan was simple: Shut down the running game and force rookie quarterback Geno Smith into mistakes.

The Saints failed at both.

Chris Ivory ran for 139 yards and a touchdown against his former team, New York had seven plays of at least 19 yards, and Rex Ryan’s defense held Drew Brees and the high-scoring Saints to six points in the second half in a 26-20 upset Sunday.

“You try to make them play left-handed,” linebacker Jonathan Vilma said. “We didn’t do that today.”

Smith didn’t turn the ball over for only the second time this season, finishing 8 of 19 for 115 yards and also running for a touchdown. Nick Folk remained perfect this year by kicking four field goals as the Jets (5-4) continued their trend of alternating wins and losses. They tied the 2005 New England Patriots for the longest such string to begin a season, according to STATS. “I don’t want to take away from the Jets,” said Vilma, who made his debut against his former team after starting the season on injured reserve following knee surgery in August. “They did a very good job and deserved to win the game.”

Interceptions by Demario Davis and Antonio Cromartie highlighted New York’s solid defensive performance, as the Jets pressured Brees throughout and held the Saints to 3 of 11 on third downs.

“The penalties hurt, we had nine of them,” Brees said. “I felt like they came at inopportune times when the offense was trying to get something going.

You look to the start of the game, [we] used timeouts, had the delay of game. A lack of tempo and rhythm and it took a little while. … But all credit to them, they played well on both sides of the ball.”

New Orleans (6-2) got two touchdown catches from Jimmy Graham, giving him 10 this season, but did little in the second half while the Jets maintained their lead.

Brees was 30 of 51 for 382 yards with two TDs and two picks — each of which the Jets turned into points. Graham finished with 116 yards on nine receptions.

“We hit on some good plays and put together

some good drives [early on], but overall, there were times we shot ourselves in the foot,” Brees said. “They would get good pressure or get us off rhythm.”

The Jets’ offense was opportunistic after getting two takeaways by the D. The second was not Brees’ fault: Nick Toon, son of former Jets star receiver Al Toon, had the ball pop off his hands late in the first half and high in the air, where Cromartie snagged it.

But a key play came with the Saints trailing 26-17 midway through the fourth quarter and facing a fourth-and-1 from the Jets 36. Sean Payton went for it, but his playcalling was a bit curious. The Saints tried a reverse to tight end Josh Hill, who was immediately crushed in the backfield by Quinton Coples for an 8-yard loss and change of possession.

“We practiced it during the week, but they just didn’t do what we expected,” Hill said. “The guy [Coples] was right there. That’s the situation you want to use it in and it didn’t go like we wanted.”

Brees, who lost one of his favorite targets when versatile running back Darren Sproles left early with a concussion, shook off a first-quarter interception

by Davis with a 51-yard throw to Graham. The powerful tight end beat Jaiquawn Jarrett down the right sideline and dragged the safety the final 5 yards to the goal line.

Often, though, the Saints were out of sync, including using all three first-half timeouts on offense in the opening quarter. That cost them when they couldn’t challenge Cromartie’s interception, which led to Smith’s 3-yard touchdown run.

Davis’ interception came on a ball tipped by teammate Dawan Landry, and led to Folk’s 39-yard field goal. Ivory gave New York’s offense its biggest boost with first-half runs of 27 and 52 yards. The second burst came from the Jets 2 and sparked a 93-yard drive to Folk’s second field goal, from 21 yards to make it 7-6.

Ivory added a 3-yard touchdown run in the second quarter, and Folk hit his 22nd straight field goal without a miss, a 47-yarder, to start the second half.

Garrett Hartley, who missed earlier from 43, made a career-best 55-yarder, drawing the Saints within 23-17. Folk nailed another one, from 45 yards, in the fourth period, and Hartley countered with a 43-yarder.

Saints defensive coordinator Rob Ryan also lost to his twin brother again — with their father Buddy watching at MetLife Stadium — falling to 3-7 against him and 0-3 since Rex took over as coach of the Jets.

“Yeah, there’s a little extra, but at the end of the day, now you realize that your bro just took a loss, so that’s the tough thing,” Rex Ryan said. “I pull for them every single week except one.”

the final 11 on fourth-and-1. He easily got the first down and carried safety Jeff Heath the last few yards, with Heath trying to strip the ball as Peterson crossed the goal line.

“I don’t really care about the yards,” said Peterson, who had 25 carries and another 37 yards receiving. “I want to get some Ws. I don’t want to rush for 2,000 yards and be sitting at home watching others play.”

Afterward, there was one touchdown between the teams in the first half, there were three in the first 7 minutes of the third quarter.

Romo had consecutive 26-yard completions to Witten, the second for a touchdown and a 13-10 lead.

A week after Cordarrelle Patterson set an NFL record with a 109-yard kickoff return for a touchdown, he fumbled a short kickoff out of bounds at the Minnesota 5.

On the next play, George Selvie knocked the ball out of Ponder’s hand in the end zone, and the Cowboys ended up with touchdowns just 10 seconds apart on the fumble recovery by Nick Hayden.

Ponder, who played high school football in the Dallas suburb of Colleyville, had an answer, finding Jennings for 27 yards on third-and-4 before going to Kyle Rudolph, who bounced off Barry Church at the 6 and finished off a 31-yard scoring catch to get the Vikings to 20-17.

“I need to be out there playing,” said Ponder, who was 25 of 37 after being named starter on Friday, and with Josh Freeman inactive because of a concussion.

“For myself and the leaders on this team, we need to get this turned around and get out there and win.”

The Cowboys were in position to extend the 20-17 lead when Bryant took his team out of field goal range with unsportsmanlike conduct for taking off his helmet and arguing with officials as a pass interference penalty against him was about to be announced.

Bryant, who made headlines last week with a pair of sideline outbursts in a loss at Detroit, later dropped an easy first-down catch on second-and-18 on a drive that ended with a punt.

“I didn’t know anything about the helmet rule,” said Bryant, who had six catches for 64 yards. “I knew the play was over with, and I thought it was OK. During the timeouts, I always take my helmet off.”

Ponder led a pair of 11-play scoring drives in the first half, the second one ending on his 6-yard scramble for a 10-6 lead late in the second quarter.

Chiefs stay perfect with win over Buffalo Smith, Hali help Kansas City overcome shaky offense, defense

By John Wawrow

The Associated Press

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Chiefs cornerback Sean Smith was exhausted after he returned an interception 100 yards for a touchdown.

“I was definitely happy I made it,” Smith said.

“I wanted to celebrate, but I was too tired.”

Chiefs 23 That’s fine, because the Bills 13 Chiefs are suddenly breathing easier after their defense kept Kansas City’s perfect start intact.

Smith’s interception and linebacker Tamba Hali’s 11-yard fumble return for a touchdown aided the Chiefs in overcoming a pedestrian offense and their own leaky defense in securing a 23-13 win over the Bills on Sunday.

Kansas City (9-0) remained the NFL’s only undefeated team and matched the best start in franchise history set in 2003. The Chiefs now enter their bye week before a key AFC West showdown against the Denver Broncos (7-1) on Nov. 17.

If the only thing perfect about the Chiefs is their record so far, coach Andy Reid refuses to make any apologies.

“We’re not going to make excuses for it,” said Reid, who in his first year has the Chiefs continuing their worst-to-first run after a 2-14 finish last season. “We’re pretty happy that we got the touchdowns. We’ll take them any way we can get them.”

The Chiefs’ defense led the way, outscoring the Alex Smith-led offense, which was limited to three field goals. And the defense had to compensate for its own problems in having difficulty containing a Buffalo offense headed by Jeff Tuel, an undrafted rookie making his first career start.

Despite allowing a season-worst 470 yards of offense and 25 first downs, the Chiefs were opportunistic in holding their ninth consecutive opponent to 17 points or less to match an NFL record set by the 1977 Atlanta Falcons.

Smith’s interception turned the momentum, tying the score at 10 after Tuel had marched the Bills 79 yards on the opening drive of the third quarter.

Hali then put the Chiefs ahead for good by scooping up T.J. Graham’s fumble — forced by cornerback Marcus Cooper — and running it in

to put Kansas City ahead 20-13 with 12:47 left.

“We don’t really care what people think,” Hali said of the Chiefs’ victories lacking style points.

“Sometimes the stats don’t really tell you the outcome.”

Tell that to the Bills (3-6), who were left stunned and frustrated in attempting to figure out how they let this one slip away.

“Horrible,” offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett said. “It was shocking even to our guys.

We did everything we wanted. We just couldn’t finish it.”

The difference was turnovers, as the Chiefs turned Buffalo’s three giveaways — two interceptions thrown by Tuel and Graham’s fumble — into 17 points.

The loss marred what began as a solid outing

by Tuel, who became the third quarterback to start for Buffalo this season. He played in place of interim starter Thad Lewis, who was sidelined by bruised ribs, and with rookie starter EJ Manuel missing his fourth game with a sprained right knee.

Tuel’s 139 yards passing in the first half were the most by a Bills quarterback in the first two quarters this season. And Tuel was in a position to improve his numbers after marching Buffalo to the Kansas City 1 on the opening drive of the second half before his day went awry.

Facing third-and-goal, Tuel took a shotgun snap and looked immediately to his right, where Graham was running a slant pattern. Tuel, however, failed to account for Smith, who easily picked off the pass at the goal line and then took off up the left sideline.

“It’s very frustrating,” Tuel said. “That’s 100 percent my fault.”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Nov. 4, 2013: This year you often feel as if you are navigating in a fog, not exactly sure of where you are heading. Sagitarrius can be extremely irritating, especially when you are in one of your deep, reflective moods.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You’ll want to be more in sync with someone. Maintain a sense of humor, and the process will be a lot easier. Tonight: Surf the Web. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Deal with a partner or key person directly in the afternoon. You tend to be on different pages, and you need to bridge the gap. Tonight: Opt for dinner for two.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Listen to others, but ultimately know that you need to make your own decision.

If need be, bring in an expert for another opinion. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Your creativity soars early in the day.

Funnel your high energy into some task that could be made better through an infusion of this trait. Tonight: As early as you can, go off and have some fun.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH You might move slowly, but once you get going, your creativity seems to soar.

Apply some of your imagination to the tasks at hand. Tonight: Tap into a loved one’s way of thinking.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Go with the flow, and honor what is happening with someone in your daily life.

Don’t assume that you know what a close friend or loved one is feeling. Tonight: Open up to a suggestion.

Husband has affair with sister-in-law Dear Annie: I recently found out that my sister and my husband were engaged in an emotional affair that lasted nearly two years.

I am in remission after having been diagnosed with breast cancer. On the day of my diagnosis, my 38-year-old son died. As a consequence of chemotherapy, I developed osteoporosis and sustained two broken femurs that required months of inpatient rehab.

My sister, “Louise,” who is married and lives in another state, began asking my husband whether he would remarry when I die. He said he didn’t think so. She then told him that she had received a vision from our departed sister, who said Louise and my husband were meant to be together. Louise’s visits to our home became more frequent and lasted longer. She engaged him in outings and activities that I am completely incapable of pursuing. She flirted with and fawned over him.

After she left, I found an email my husband had written to her, saying that he adored her in every way. He said he wouldn’t betray me, but that he would definitely remarry Louise after I died. All of this in secret, behind my back.

I confronted both of them, and my husband confessed his involvement and begged for forgiveness.

He always has been forthright and honorable in the past, and we are working hard on our marriage. He has vowed to cut all ties with Louise.

I have told her that she is never to step foot in my house again.

The problem is that my 91-yearold mother is quite ill and not likely to live much longer. I cannot be in the same room as my sister. Is there a way to honor our mother while avoiding a confrontation that will only be ugly? — Devastated Dear Devastated: Louise is quite a piece of work, betraying you when

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH You are in your element in the morning, so use that time to do anything important.

You also will be more biased. Tonight: Do some shopping on the way home.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Know that your strong suit is not dealing with real estate or any matter involving your home. Tonight: Be spontaneous, and you’ll have more fun!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Though you might feel you are being clear and receptive, you will find out otherwise. You easily could misread someone’s message as well. Tonight: Return calls.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Friendship is more important to you than nearly anything else. Use care if you find yourself mixing money and friendship in an unconventional manner. Tonight: Join some friends.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Getting a clear vision, much less being able to verbalize the idea, takes talent. You could feel as if you have to take a stand and lead others with a project. Tonight: Up till the wee hours.

Hocus Focus

you were most helpless. But your husband must also take responsibility for allowing his vulnerability to lead him astray. We are glad you are working on that. Louise deserves to be officially snubbed. That means if you end up in the same room, you do not acknowledge her presence. She is invisible to you, while you are perfectly gracious to everyone else.

Dear Annie: I was a pretty happy guy until my grandmother crushed my dreams. I planned to join my high school basketball team, but Grandma said I was never going to make it.

This made me extremely sad and angry and put me in a bad mood for the rest of the day.

Is there any polite way to resolve this, or was Grandma right and I should just give up? I need help.

— Brokenhearted, Crushed Dreams Dear Brokenhearted:IsGrandma the basketball coach? Only the coach understands what combination of skills is desired each year. You might make it, you might not, but you deserve the opportunity to try. And if you don’t make the team, there are other things you can do. Grandma may be trying to protect you, but disappointment is a useful learning experience. Tell her politely, “I appreciate your interest, but I’m going to give it a shot anyway.” No one can crush your dreams if you don’t let them. Use her negativity as motivation.

Dear Annie: This is for “Who Am I” and any other woman who wants to be addressed by her maiden name after marriage. If your marriage is still young, have a wedding announcement placed in your local paper with your name as you want it used and your husband’s name. If it’s too late for that, have business cards made with your preferred name and your husband’s name, and give them out to anyone and everyone you know. — An Annie Fan on Cape Cod
