Skandera critic once backed her eval system

n his battle with the truth, teachers union executive Charles Bowyer tells quite a story about the battle he’s fighting. Bowyer, executive director of the National Education Association New Mexico, describes himself as an opponent of the bureaucratic woman who imposed the controversial system for evaluating the state’s teachers. That would be Hanna Skandera, secretary-desigMilan nate of the Public Simonich Education DepartRingside Seat ment. In reality, Bowyer, more than anyone else, helped Skandera establish teacher evaluations tied to student scores on standardized tests. As though that history did not exist, Bowyer and the National Education Association filed a lawsuit last week asking a judge to declare the evaluation system illegal. Bowyer conveniently left the main criticism of Skandera to a friend, Betty Patterson, his union’s president. “Ms. Skandera and the Public

was lobbed at him. It exploded, blinding Naranjo and shattering one of his hands. “And then I wasn’t sure how I was going to live,” the 70-year-old Santa Clara Pueblo artist recalled by phone late last week. “But at the time, I knew I wanted to live.” On Sunday, Naranjo was one of more than 3,000 people, including many veterans, who attended the dedication ceremony of the American Veterans Disabled for Life Memorial, a monument of granite and glass with a five-point-starshaped fountain (representing five branches of the military) that was
erected close to the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. One wall of the monument features 18 quotes from veterans. Among them is this thought from Naranjo: “When you’re young, you’re invincible. You’re immortal. I thought I’d come back. Perhaps I wouldn’t, there was that thought, too, but I had this feeling that I would come back. Underneath that feeling, there was another, that maybe I wouldn’t be quite the same, but I felt I’d make it back.” Naranjo made it back. And on

The superintendent of Española Public Schools thinks the troubled Cariños Charter School might be violating school attendance laws because it no longer has a permanent facility with classrooms where students can meet. The state’s Construction Industries Division in late August “redtagged” the Cariños facility — a former middle school — citing

about 24 safety violations. Vernon Jaramillo, the school’s chancellor, said in an email that Cariños has increased its experiential lessons and field trips to keep the kids engaged and learning until they have a new school building. “The teachers and staff continue to be dedicated to the mission of our charter,” Jaramillo said. The school hopes to start busing its students to a vacant building on the El Rito campus of Northern New Mexico College. In the meantime, Superintendent Daniel Trujillo said he doesn’t know where the Cariños students have been going to school for the past month. “Right now those kids are not in compliance with state law with regards to

The district approved the charter for the dual-language school, which serves about 200 students in grades K-8, in 2006, a year after it first applied. Relations since then have not always been warm. First District Court Judge Sarah Singleton recently ordered Española Public Schools to pay for buses to transport the charter school students to El Rito. Cariños’ attor-

EL PARAÍSO, Guatemala — The smugglers advertised on the radio in the spring: “Do you want to live better? Come with me.” Cecilia, a restless wisp of a girl, heard the pitch and ached to go. Her stepfather had been murdered, forcing her, her mother and four younger siblings into her aunt’s tiny home, with just three beds for 10 people. A smuggler offered them a loan of $7,000 for Cecilia’s journey, with the property as a guarantee. The trip lasted nearly a month, devolving from a journey of want and fear into an outright abduction by smugglers in the United States. Freedom came only after an extra $1,000 payment, made at a gas station in Fort Myers, Fla. Now in Miami, Cecilia, 16, is one of more than 50,000 unaccompanied minors who have come to the United States illegally from Central America in less than a year. Though the number of new arrivals has been declining, the Obama administration says it is determined to “confront the smugglers of these unaccompanied children,” and the “cartels who tax or exploit them in their passage.”

DALLAS — The murderous civil war that terrorized Liberia from 1989 to 2003 left at least 5 percent of the population dead, and sent wave after wave of refugees to neighboring countries. To escape the ethnic and political turmoil, more than 700,000 fled from a nation that had barely 2 million residents when the conflict began. Among them were Thomas Eric Duncan, the man who last week became the first person diagnosed with Ebola in the U.S., and Louise Troh, the woman he had come to Dallas to visit. After meeting in the early 1990s in a refugee encampment near the Ivory Coast border town of Danané, the two Liberian nationals started a relationship and bore a son, several family members said. It is not clear what drove the couple apart — Duncan, 42, who is fighting for his life at a Dallas hospital, has not spoken publicly, and Troh, 54, who will be quarantined for another two weeks, declined to discuss their history. But starting in 1998, when Troh left for the United States — first settling in Boston, and then in Dallas with another Liberian man — they began a

Poll: Americans worry if the government can protect them By Jill Colvin and Jennifer Agiesta The Associated Press
WASHINGTON mericans lack confidence in the government’s ability to protect their personal safety and economic security, a sign that their widespread unease about the state of the nation extends far beyond politics, according to the latest Associated Press-GfK poll. With Election Day about a month away, more than half those in the survey said Washington can do little to effectively lessen threats such as climate change, mass shootings, racial tensions, economic uncertainty and an unstable job market. “I think what we’ve got going on here in America is the perfect storm of not good things,” said Joe Teasdale, 59, who lives in southwest Wisconsin and works as an assistant engineer at a casino. For many of those questioned in the poll, conducted before doctors in Texas diagnosed a Liberian man with the Ebola virus, the concern starts with the economy. The poll found that 9 in 10 of those most likely to vote in the Nov. 4 election call the economy an extremely or very important issue. Teasdale is among those who say the slow recovery from the recession is a top concern. Despite improvements nationally, business is far from booming in his state, Teasdale said. He’s been supplementing his stagnant salary by renovating and renting out duplexes and has little faith the situation will improve soon. He wants government to get out of the way of business. “If you’re putting so much restriction on them where it isn’t practical for them to expand or grow, why should they?” Teasdale asked. Those surveyed also pointed to events such as the protests in Ferguson, Mo., that followed the fatal police shooting an unarmed black 18-year-old and the beheading of a woman in an Oklahoma food processing plant, apparently at the hand of a suspended co-worker. “This is the first time I’ve felt insecure in my own country,” said Jan Thomas, 75, of Stevensville, Mont. “Especially after the beheading in Oklahoma. That’s scary.” The poll found that Democrats tend to express more faith in the government’s ability to protect them than do Republicans. Yet even among Democrats, just 27 percent are confident the government can keep them safe from terrorist attacks. Fewer than 1 in 5 say so on each of the other issues, including climate change. “There’s too many people who still don’t believe that it’s happening,” bemoaned Felicia Duncan, 53, who lives in Sharonville, Ohio, a suburb of Cincinnati, and works as an office manager at a mechanical contracting company. Urbanites tend to be more confident the government will keep them safe from terrorist threats than do people living in suburbs and rural areas. Younger Americans are more confident than older people that the government can minimize the threat of mass shootings. When it comes to quelling racial tensions, Hispanics are more confident than are blacks and whites. Thirteen years after the Sept. 11 attacks, and as the Obama administration conducts airstrikes against Islamic State militants in Syria and Iraq, only 1 in 5 in the poll say they are extremely or very confident the government can keep them safe from another terrorist attack. Four in 10 express moderate confidence. While there has not been a large-scale terrorist attack on U.S. soil since 9/11, roughly one-third of Americans say they are not too confident or not confident at all in the government’s ability to prevent another. The AP-GfK Poll was conducted September 25-29 using KnowledgePanel, GfK’s probability-based panel designed to be representative of the U.S. population. It involved online interviews with 1,845 adults, and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points for all respondents. Respondents were selected randomly using telephone or mail survey methods, and later interviewed. People selected for KnowledgePanel who didn’t otherwise have access to the Internet were given free access.

TYPHOON PHANFONE WREAKS HAVOC IN JAPAN Rain leaks Monday at Tokyo Station in Tokyo. Typhoon Phanfone came ashore near the city of Hamamatsu shortly after 8 a.m. after washing three American airmen in Okinawa out to sea the previous day, killing at least one. One of the three airmen was found dead. The other two were missing, according to the Air Force and the Japanese coast guard. Authorities issued evacuation advisories for more than 400,000 people in the storm’s path. Bullet train service was suspended between Tokyo and Osaka because of heavy rain, and more than 600 flights were canceled at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport. KYODO NEWS
In brief Islamic State fighters shell Syrian Kurdish town BEIRUT — Islamic State militants on Sunday shelled a beleaguered Syrian Kurdish town near the border with Turkey, sending smoke billowing into the sky as Kurdish militiamen scrambled to repel the extremists’ offensive, activists said. The Islamic State group has pushed to the outskirts of the town of Kobani, also known as Ayn Arab, as it presses its weeks-long offensive against the town and its surrounding villages. The assault has forced some 160,000 people to flee across the frontier in one of the biggest single exoduses of Syria’s civil war. The Islamic State group has continued to advance despite airstrikes against its fighters by the U.S. and its Arab allies. Overnight, coalition strikes targeted militant positions around Kobani, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an activist group. The U.S. military said fighter aircraft conducted two strikes northwest of the city of Raqqa, hitting a large Islamic State group unit and destroying six militant firing positions. The statement did not specify the location, but Kobani is northwest of Raqqa. The Observatory said that the airstrikes, combined with heavy clashes on the ground overnight, left at least 16 militants dead. At least 11 Kurdish militiamen were also killed in the fighting.
Underwater search for MH370 resumes SYDNEY — The hunt for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 resumed Monday in a desolate stretch of the Indian Ocean, more
than six months after the jet vanished. The GO Phoenix, the first of three ships that will spend up to a year hunting for the wreckage far off Australia’s west coast, is expected to spend 12 days hunting for the jet before heading to shore to refuel. Crews will use sonar, video cameras and jet fuel sensors to scour the seabed for the Boeing 777, which vanished for reasons unknown on March 8 during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board. Two other ships being provided by Dutch contractor Fugro are expected to join the Malaysian-contracted GO Phoenix later this month.
28 unidentified bodies found in grave in Mexico IGUALA, Mexico — Mexican forensic experts recovered 28 charred bodies from a clandestine grave on the outskirts of this city where police engaged in a deadly clash with student protesters a week ago, Guerrero state’s chief prosecutor said Sunday. State Prosecutor Inaky Blanco said the corpses were too badly damaged for immediate identification and he could not say whether any of the dead could be some of the 43 college students reported missing after the confrontation with police. He said genetic testing of the remains could take two weeks to two months. Blanco said one of the people detained in the case had told investigators that 17 students were taken to the grave site and killed there. But he stressed that investigators had not confirmed the person’s story. State police and prosecutors have been investigating the Iguala city police for misconduct during a series of violent incidents last weekend that resulted in six shooting deaths and more than two dozen people injured. Investigators said video showed police taking away an undetermined number of student protesters after a confrontation. Authorities have presented charges against

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — A new Missouri law requiring a 72-hour abortion waiting period is set to take effect this week, and the state’s only licensed abortion clinic isn’t planning to try to stop it. Although Planned Parenthood officials have denounced the Missouri law as “onerous” and “burdensome” for women, the organization isn’t planning to file a lawsuit before the measure takes effect Friday. That’s because abortion-rights groups have determined that their chances of success aren’t that good. “We’ve had our national attorneys from all of the leading women’s health organizations in the country work with us, and we have a consensus that we do not have a route at this time to go to court and to stop this law from going into effect — as disappointing and as frustrating as that is,” said Paula Gianino, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of the St. Louis Region and Southwest Missouri. An attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union, which has challenged other abortion laws, said it also has no plans to try to block the Missouri law from taking effect. Missouri’s law will impose the second longest abortion waiting period in the nation behind only South Dakota, where the 72-hour period can sometimes extend longer because it doesn’t count weekends and holidays. Utah also has a 72-hour requirement, but unlike Missouri, Utah allows exceptions for rape, incest and other circumstances.

Hong Kong protesters at Supreme Court faces new term Justices likely to odds over pullback plan take on same-sex marriage issue
By Elaine Kurtenbach and Wendy Tang
By Mark Sherman
The Associated Press
HONG KONG — Hong Kong’s pro-democracy activists agreed Sunday to remove some barriers blocking roads and sidewalks ahead of the government’s deadline to scale back their protests. But the demonstrators appeared to be divided, and others refused to budge, with only hours to go. An alliance of students said it had tried but so far failed to reach an agreement with officials on a plan to begin talks on their demands for wider political reforms. The group vowed to continue protests until details of the talks might be worked out. “If the government uses force to clear away protesters, there will be no room for dialogue,” Lester Shum, one of the group’s leaders, told reporters. Earlier in the day, students occupying the area just outside city government headquarters agreed to remove some barricades that were blocking the building’s entrance, after the government said it would do whatever was necessary to ensure 3,000 civil servants would have full access to their offices on Monday. The partial withdrawal appeared to be part of a strategy to regroup in another part of town, as protesters were urged to shift from other areas to Hong Kong’s Admiralty shopping and business district, a central location near the government’s main offices that has served as an informal headquarters for the protests. Alex Chow, another student leader, said he was not worried about the crowd dwindling as people prepared to return to

work and school on Monday. “Because people need rest, but they will come out again. It doesn’t mean the movement is diminishing. Many people still support it,” Chow said. Officials said they intended to have key streets open for schools and offices by Monday morning, but it was unclear whether they would act to clear the streets and other areas by force or just settle for a partial victory in clearing some roads. The government announced a reopening of schools and some roads, but indicated some disruptions were likely to continue. “To restore order, we are determined, and we are confident we have the capability to take any necessary action,” police spokesman Steve Hui said. “There should not be any unreasonable, unnecessary obstruction by any members of the public.” Television footage showed a man shaking hands with a police officer outside government headquarters and the two sides removing some barricades together. About 300 demonstrators stood by outside the government building’s main entrance, but then many sat back down and
refused to leave. Later in the evening, some barriers along walkways into the building were moved out of the way. “I’m against any kind of withdrawal or tendency to surrender,” said Do Chan, a protester in his 30s. “I think withdrawing, I mean shaking hands with the police, is a very ugly gesture of surrender.” The situation remained volatile across the harbor in Hong Kong’s Mong Kok district, a shopping area where ugly confrontations broke out Friday and Saturday after opponents of the protesters tried to force them out. Many demonstrators heeded calls to head home or shift to the Admiralty area. A few hundred appeared determined to stay. As the evening wore on, some sang songs and clapped, while groups of older men lingered nearby, smoking and drinking, as police stood watch.
WASHINGTON — A Supreme Court term that is starting with a lack of headlinegrabbing cases may end with a blockbuster that helps define the legacy of the court under Chief Justice John Roberts. While same-sex marriage is not yet on their agenda, the justices appear likely to take on the issue and decide once and for all whether gay and lesbian couples have a constitutional right to marry. When the justices formally open their new term Monday, Roberts will be beginning his 10th year at the head of the court, and the fifth with the same lineup of justices. He has been part of a five-justice conservative majority that has rolled back campaign finance limits, upheld abortion restrictions and generally been skeptical of the consideration of race in public life. But his court has taken a different path in cases involving gay and lesbian Americans, despite his opposition most of the time. The court’s record on gay rights is comparable to its embrace of civil rights for

African Americans in the 1950s and 1960s under Chief Justice Earl Warren, said University of Chicago law professor David Strauss. “The court will go down in history as one that was on the frontiers of establishing rights for gays and lesbians,” Strauss said. The justices passed up their first opportunity last week to add gay marriage cases to their calendar. But they will have several more chances in the coming weeks to accept appeals from officials in Indiana, Oklahoma, Utah, Virginia and Wisconsin who are trying to preserve their state bans on same-sex marriage. Those prohibitions fell one after the other following the high court’s June 2013 decision that struck down part of a federal law that defined marriage as between a man and a woman. On the court’s plate in the new term are cases involving: u Religious, employment and housing discrimination.

Smugglers: Breaking up networks poses challenges Continued from Page A-1 But breaking up these networks will be difficult. Thousands of migrants are believed to be kidnapped and abused every year while going through Mexico. Others, like Cecilia, are held for ransom in the United States, and officials across the region lament that the ugly business of human smuggling keeps getting uglier. The result, visible throughout mountain villages like this one, is a relentless cycle with departures that ebb and flow but never seem to end. In this self-perpetuating system, the seeds of future migration have been sown in the debts of the past and present. Cecilia’s inability to send money home right away led her pregnant mother to try to make the journey herself in a desperate bid to save the house, only to fail. Now she owes a smuggler, also known as a coyote, too. Other family members will follow, her relatives say, repeating the pattern of debt, extortion and additional risk. Cecilia, who did not want her full name or the full names of her relatives used, knew the journey was risky. But she and her family believed the smuggler’s proposal. “I thought when I got to the United States they would give me papers — the coyote said that,” she said. So early one morning in May, Cecilia put five pairs of pants and five shirts in a backpack and set off. What followed, she said, was a three-week journey with a rotating cast of guides. First, she rode a bus to the Mexican border. Then another set of coyotes took them through Mexico to Reynosa, just across the border from McAllen, Texas. For about a week, she said, she was kept in a warehouse with as many as 100 people until they crossed the Rio Grande and to a house in or near McAllen. After about a week, another coyote took a small group to begin the treacherous walk through the desert to avoid the Border Patrol checkpoints on the roads. “I saw two dead people in the desert,” she recalled. A car picked them up and seven of them squeezed in. They drove for an hour toward Houston. The new coyote started calling her biological father, Jacinto, who had only recently reappeared in her life. “Where’s the money?” the coyote asked. Jacinto was confused. He had gone to the United States as a young man, working as a gardener in Miami, but had been back in Guatemala with a second family for more than a decade. “The man said if they don’t pay they are not going to let us out,” Cecilia said. Cecilia’s mother, frantic after not
hearing from her daughter for weeks, took cash from a lender, hoping to make it to the United States to find her daughter and repay the original loan. But she lost everything at the Mexican border when a coyote robbed her and refused to bring her north because she was pregnant. Jacinto was now considered responsible for the debts, but he said he had no way to pay. Cecilia said her captor became more aggressive, prompting her to play her final card: a telephone number in her pocket. Before she had left, her father had given her the home number of a Miami human rights activist whose lawn he had cut as a teenager. He had not seen the family in years. “I get this call, and it’s a girl saying, ‘It’s Cecilia. Can you help me? They won’t let me out unless we pay money,’ ” said Marín, who did not want her full name published because of security concerns. “I said, ‘Who is Cecilia?’ ” The coyote got on the phone and made the terms clear: He wanted $500 immediately, and someone had to come to Houston to retrieve the girl. Marín told the coyote she did not know this girl. A series of calls later, Marín realized that Cecilia was her former employee’s daughter. She eventually agreed to pay the $500, and the man agreed to drive east. But every time he crossed another state line, he called and demanded more, raising the price for Cecilia’s release to $1,700 by the time he reached northern Florida. “It was clear that if we did not comply, she would wind up in a brothel,” said Ana Reyes, Marín’s family friend who fielded most of the phone calls. The more Marín thought about the proposition, the angrier she became. But she agreed to meet in Naples, about two hours from Miami. Reyes, her toddler, Marín and Marín’s sister and niece all piled into a car to rendezvous with the smuggler. The trip ended on the side of Interstate 75, near a Circle K, where Marín and her entourage met two men. One lifted his shirt to show the firearm tucked in his waistband. He wanted $1,500, but Marín had brought only $900. Her sister scraped together another $100 from her purse. “When he showed the gun, I was so mad,” Marín said. “I said, ‘Look, sir, I don’t know her. I did not hire you. Take her!’ When he saw my rage, he said, ‘You don’t know her?’ ” “ ‘No, I don’t,’ ” she answered. “ ‘I am going to lose money on this, but OK,’ ” he said. He took the $1,000 and let Cecilia out of the car. She carried nothing. But by the smuggler’s accounting Cecilia had been well served. “You have to be thankful,” he said. “We treated her well.”
16-year separation. Not only did Duncan not see Troh, he missed the entire childhood of their son, Karsiah, who adapted well enough to his new home to become the starting quarterback for the Conrad High Chargers. Tragedy befell Troh in February when a daughter in Liberia died during childbirth. In March, she split with Peterson Wayne, the Liberian refugee she had followed to Texas. It was after that when she and Duncan apparently revived their relationship, first at long distance, and then when Duncan landed at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport on Sept. 20. “They had had a falling out, and had patched things up,” said the Rev. George Mason, Troh’s pastor at Wilshire Baptist Church, “and he had come here with the intention to marry and start a new life together. Obviously, what happened has thrown a wrinkle into that.” And then some. What began as a joyful reunion — refugees from African civil strife seeking to rebuild their lives in America — spiraled last week into a national health scare. Once again, Duncan and Troh found themselves in the vortex of larger forces beyond their control. The arrival of Ebola with Duncan put Dallas on edge. It commanded the attention of President Barack Obama and his top health advisers, exposed a series of disconcerting lapses in medical care and crisis logistics and incited a national debate over whether to restrict travel to and from afflicted countries. For Troh, a week that started with home-cooked meals and happy introductions ended with the seizure of her belongings by workers in yellow Hazmat suits. On Sunday, the director of the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, said that Duncan’s medical condition was quite critical and that he is “fighting for his life.” Duncan, who goes by Eric, is the youngest of seven siblings, according to his brother, Wilfred Smallwood, who lives in Phoenix. His father was an engineer for an American mining company, Smallwood said. After five years in the refugee camp in French-speaking Ivory Coast, the family moved to Ghana, where there was less of a language barrier, Smallwood said. A sister, who now lives in Charlotte, N.C., was the first of the clan to make it to the U.S., shortly after the war began. Their mother came a decade later, followed by Smallwood, but Duncan returned to Liberia, where he stayed. Before leaving for Dallas, Duncan had been living in a neighborhood on the eastern outskirts of Monrovia, an
hour’s commute from his job in the central city. He had worked for about a year as a driver for Safeway Cargo, which acts as the customs clearance agent for FedEx in Liberia, said Henry Brunson, the company’s manager. Duncan rented one of three small rooms in a one-story white building with concrete walls and a roof of corrugated zinc. He enjoyed riding his Yamaha motorcycle, and interacted regularly with his neighbors. Smallwood said Duncan obtained a visa several weeks before leaving, and on Sept. 4 he quit his job without warning or explanation, Brunson said. But 11 days later, only four days before his scheduled departure, Duncan made a consequential decision to help his landlords transport their pregnant daughter to a hospital, according to the landlords and neighbors. The woman had been stricken with Ebola and was convulsing. He rode in a taxi with the woman and her relatives. After the hospital turned her away for lack of space in its Ebola ward, he helped carry the woman from the taxi back into her house. A neighbor said she saw Duncan holding her legs while others supported her back and arms. The woman died several hours later. On Sept. 19, as he prepared to board a Brussels Airlines flight to the Belgian capital, where he would catch connections to Dulles International Airport and then Dallas, Duncan was screened for Ebola at Monrovia’s air-port. His temperature measured 97.3 degrees, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. When asked on a form if he had been exposed to anyone with Ebola in the past 21 days, the virus’ maximum incubation period, he said no, said Binyah Kesselly, chairman of the Liberia Airport Authority. Texas prosecutors said Sunday that they are considering whether to bring charges against Duncan. “We are actively having discussions as to whether or not we need to look into this as it relates to a criminal matter,” Craig Watkins, the district attorney for Dallas County, said Sunday. “We’re working with all the different agencies to get to the bottom of it.” Watkins did not elaborate on what those charges might be. It was Duncan’s first trip to the U.S., his brother said, and he was clearly excited to reunite with Troh and his son, who now attends Angelo State University, west of Dallas. Duncan settled into Troh’s twobedroom apartment, which was shared by Troh’s 13-year-old son, Timothy Wayne, and two men in their 20s — Smallwood’s son, Oliver, and a friend named Jeffrey Cole. Jet lag sapped Duncan for several days, and he found himself restless at
night and sleepy during the day, said Josephus Weeks, a relative of Duncan’s in North Carolina. Troh liked to prepare an excess of food so she could lure others to eat it, according to Peterson Wayne, and she introduced family and friends to Duncan when they dropped by. Youngor Jallah, one of Troh’s daughters, said she met Duncan when she dropped off her children Sept. 21 before rushing away to her job as a nurse’s assistant. When she came back to pick up the children, her 6-year-old, Rose, announced, “Oh, Grandma has a new boyfriend.” On Sept. 25, Duncan began experiencing chills, and Troh drove him to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital. He arrived with a fever of 100.1 degrees and reported having abdominal pain for two days, a sharp headache and decreased urination, according to the hospital. When a nurse took his history, the hospital has reported, he said he had not been around anyone ill but had recently been in Africa. The nurse noted this, but doctors apparently failed to consider the possibility of Ebola. Duncan was sent home with antibiotics that were powerless to halt progression of his virus. On the morning of Sept. 28, after a nightlong bout with diarrhea, Duncan did not want to get out of bed. Troh, who is also a nurse’s assistant, had to go to work and called Jallah to come care for him. When she arrived, he complained of being cold, and she took a quick trip to a nearby WalMart to buy a thicker blanket. She made him tea, then fetched a blood pressure monitor from her car. The readings were frighteningly low, and his temperature measured close to 103, she said. His eyes had turned red, and he told her he had been to the bathroom seven times during the night. “OK, you can have your tea, but then we are going to the hospital,” she told him. He resisted, but she circumvented the argument by calling 911. Jallah said she was not thinking specifically about Ebola, but she had a warning for the arriving emergency medical workers: “You need to wear masks and be protective because this man is from a viral country.” On Tuesday, tests confirmed that Duncan had contracted Ebola. Jallah said that she and Troh learned the news on television that morning. They have been quarantined since. Troh and the other residents of her unit were moved Thursday to a private residence provided by a local benefactor. She said by phone Saturday that she remained “stressed out” by her concern for her family’s health and by a week spent in the media glare. “We are peaceful people,” she said. “We are not criminals. We are here legally. Leave us alone.”
Charter: State says building isn’t safe Continued from Page A-1 ney, Ron VanAmberg, confirmed the order, but it had not been issued as of late last week. Trujillo says the district doesn’t have the resources to provide transportation to El Rito, a rural village at least a 30-minute drive from Española. The district is currently short two bus drivers, Trujillo said. “The judge is forcing us to do something we can’t do.” Trujillo said the district offered Cariños several spaces in existing district buildings, but its administrators prefer the El Rito facility. About 60 Cariños students have
left the charter school to enroll in the district, Trujillo said. VanAmberg said the number is closer to 40. In May, Cariños sued the school district for trying to kick it out of the former Española Middle School building, where it had a lease through June 2016. Over the summer, Singleton ruled that Cariños had the right to stay at that site until the lease ends. But Trujillo and representatives of the state Construction Industries Division maintain the school is not safe. Trujillo said the district plans to demolish it. “Our concern is the safety of the children,” he said.
Jaramillo and VanAmberg said the school is asking the state’s Public Schools Facilities Authority to give it some portables that can be set up on the Cariños site in Española so students can return to school. Trujillo said it is not the district’s responsibility to pay for those portables. Larry Behrens, spokesman for the Public Education Department, said Thursday that the department is still involved in mediating a solution between the district and the charter school.

Memorial: 18 quotes chosen by panel Continued from Page A-1 Sunday morning, he sat quietly while an array of guest speakers, including President Barack Obama, spoke of the wounded warriors’ dedication and sacrifice. Obama said the monument commemorates the two battles the country’s disabled veterans fight: “The battle over there and the battle here at home, the battle of recovery which at times can be even harder and certainly as long.” After the event, Naranjo said by phone that he felt humbled “because there were so many other veterans with so many disabilities, and one always thinks that the next one seems worse than yours. But I guess we’ve all adapted and managed to work around our own [disabilities] and somehow try to get back into mainstream and accomplish whatever we can.” Born at Santa Clara Pueblo and raised in Taos, Naranjo is the son of the late ceramic artist Rose Naranjo and one in a long line of familial artists. In the mid1960s, he began studying art at New Mexico Highlands University. He had
dropped out, but had plans to return, when he received his draft notice sometime early in 1967. “I wasn’t thrilled because nobody wants to go to war,” he said. A friend discussed the possibility of running away to avoid the draft. “It wasn’t in my nature,” Naranjo said. “There are some things you can do and some things you can’t do. That was something I couldn’t do.” By November 1967, he was in Vietnam. Daily life there consisted of being transported by helicopter into the fields and jungles looking for the enemy. Fear may have been a constant companion but, as Naranjo said, “You can’t dwell on it because it serves no purpose. So you go out there and do your job and don’t think about the rest of it, or you’d go crazy.” His life changed that day in January. One of the last things he saw was the Viet Cong soldier throwing the grenade at him. Another American soldier by the name of Ysir or Yesir or Yasir or some-
thing sounding similar — “I’m not sure how it was spelled,” Naranjo said. “I didn’t know his first name. All we had were last names.” — pulled Naranjo to safe ground. Four men then carried him to a medical helicopter. Naranjo has no idea what happened to his savior. After spending months recuperating from his wounds at various hospitals, he received his discharge from the Army in October 1968. He came home to a supportive family, harboring a dream to make himself useful. He attended a school for the blind in Palo Alto, Calif., and then returned to New Mexico. “Fortunately, I discovered I could still sculpt with my one hand,” he said. “It made my recovery much easier and my adjustment into the mainstream much easier. I had purpose.” Naranjo sculpts animal and human figures, including Pueblo dancers. No one spot checks his work. “It wouldn’t be mine if I let anyone else do it,” he said. He no longer thinks about being blind. “It’s just the way it is. You go about dealing with life from that perspective and

don’t think about what it would be like if you could see. That’s impossible. It doesn’t serve any purpose.” He has been married to his wife, Laurie, since 1978. They have two children, Jenna and Bryn. The quotes on the monument were chosen by a panel of judges who did not
know the authors, according to media reports. Naranjo said he received a letter informing him of the decision to use his quote about a month ago. “It’s not every day you get your name put on a memorial somewhere,” he said. Contact Robert Nott at 986-3021 or rnott@sfnewmexican.com.

ers rated as “effective” or better jumped by 17 percentage points based on errors by Skandera’s department that Boyd detected. Boyd is one of many people who have questioned the competency of Skandera and her staff in evaluating teachers and grading schools with an A-F format. Skandera, a cog in Republican Gov. Susana Martinez’s administration, has defended her topdown implementation of teacher evaluations. Skandera said she did not need approval from state lawmakers. But if that’s true, why did Skandera and others working with Martinez twice try to persuade the Legislature to approve teacher evaluations tied to student test scores? Skandera, when pressed, once told me that she saw no choice but to implement her evaluation system unilaterally. “We just can’t wait,” she said. Skandera does not have the confidence of many teachers across the state. They know she has never stood in front of a classroom packed with 30 kids who need help and encouragement, discipline and guidance. No, Skandera hasn’t been in the trenches, but she has a bunker mentality. In Skandera’s lonely view, she and Martinez’s administration are on the side that stands for kids. Anybody

Not so. Teacher evaluations tied to student test scores have been part of Skandera’s and Martinez’s plan all along. Bowyer backed them. Now that Bowyer and Skandera have turned on each other, his sound bites are calculated to help King in the governor’s race. Bowyer wants to muddy the record. But he was in Skandera’s camp, no matter how often he denies it.
Martinez’s opponent in this fall’s gubernatorial election. Bowyer says King would be far better for kids and schools than Martinez. Bowyer doesn’t like to admit it, but he is singing a different tune now that he’s suing his former collaborator, Skandera. Two years ago, in the opinion piece he wrote with Skandera, Bowyer said the evaluation system she wanted was “the common-sense answer for our teachers, principals and students. It’s time to support this approach for the sake of our students today and our state tomorrow.” Bowyer told me last week that Skandera had changed the evaluations significantly, so it’s really not the same idea he endorsed.

with a different idea is in the other bunker, supporting selfish unions. The teachers that Skandera and Martinez say they champion also are union members, but they leave that out of their equation. To stifle all the questions about how to evaluate those who don’t teach math or English, Skandera ordered what she calls End of Course Exams. The expense of this mandate was passed down to local districts. For someone who complains about “union bosses,” Skandera is not above practicing bossism herself.

EL NUEVO MEXICANO Canutito learns about the theology ‘de la calabaza’
¿Un movimiento hispano de independientes? CHICAGO os hispanos que contemplan las inminentes elecciones deben preguntarse: “¿Y ahora, qué?” El presidente Obama ha mostrado que da por sentado el apoyo de los latinos. En la elección de mitad de período el “Voto Latino” no figurará como parte de la historia en las contiendas más importantes y más reñidas. En cuanto a la de 2016, todo es incierto. ¿Cómo proceder, entonces? ¿Desentenderse del proceso político? ¿Seguir votando una fórmula con la esperanza de que los nuevos funcionarios sean mejores que los actuales? ¿Decidir que —al menos en la cabina de votación— más vale malo conocido que bueno por conocer? Este asunto es imperativo para muchos hispanos — no sólo para los que consideran que la inmigración es el tema más importante de la elección. Para muchos, la principal preocupación en la elección del mes próximo es si los políticos de ambos partidos tomarán en Esther serio, alguna vez, a los electores hispanos. Cepeda Según activistas políticos y Comentario líderes comunitarios con experiencia, todo depende de cuánta presión puedan aplicar los hispanos sobre Washington. Durante una mesa redonda en vivo, en BlogTalkRadio — titulada “La casa política latina está dividida: ¿Con quién está usted — con las familias inmigrantes o con el Partido Demócrata?” — tres activistas latinos hablaron de su separación de una presunta alianza de grupos de base y organizaciones que abogan por los derechos de los inmigrantes. Recalcaron que los electores hispanos deben superar la degradación que ha cubierto a las organizaciones de incidencia, que dependen de la financiación de Washington, y a los políticos que confían en el apoyo de esas organizaciones. “Algunos de nosotros que hemos expresado nuestra opinión desde el comienzo, señalamos que existe un defecto en la estrategia fundamental que ha utilizado el movimiento de justicia-para-losinmigrantes en los últimos 10 años,” dijo Gonzalo Santos, profesor de Sociología de la Universidad de California en Bakersfield y activista de los derechos de los inmigrantes. “[Confiamos] en el liderazgo, la guía y la dirección de agentes de Washington — organizaciones políticas, organizaciones para hacer lobby, partidos políticos — y en líderes electos nacionalmente para enmarcar los asuntos, establecer los calendarios y negociar entre ellos el contenido de lo que llamamos la reforma migratoria. “Cedimos a Washington el papel de dirigir este asunto. … Si observamos la Historia y examinamos el último movimiento exitoso, Washington siempre ha seguido la guía de los movimientos sociales auténticos [que] nunca cedieron su autonomía, independencia, su voz [o] su lista de pedidos. … Nunca se debe confundir el papel del movimiento con el papel de Washington.” Santos y otros activistas, que se han unido bajo el nombre Comité Nacional de Coordinación 2014 para una Reforma Migratoria Justa y Humana, están pidiendo actos radicales para modificar la manera habitual en que los políticos encaran a los electores hispanos — uno de los cuales es una realineación partidaria general de los hispanos. “Estamos pidiendo a los latinos que se denominen Independientes,” dijo Armando Vasquez-Ramos, presidente del Centro de Estudios California-Mexico en Long Beach, Calif. “Está claro que va a ser muy difícil para los demócratas. … [Será] una batalla dura tan sólo controlar el Senado, y la culpa será sólo de ellos. No pueden echársela a los hispanos si pierden. “Y deben comprender que si no actúan, no habrá votos. … [Ni el presidente ni los demócratas] deben suponer que somos católicos y demócratas de nacimiento.” Nativo Lopez-Vigil, presidente de la Asociación Política Mexicana Americana, dijo que el apoyo hispano debe ganarse, como se gana el de otros bloques electorales. “Ambos partidos deben cortejarnos. El partido demócrata piensa que nos tiene acurrucados, enrollados, envueltos en su bolsillo de manera que no tiene que luchar por nuestro voto,” dijo Lopez-Vigil, elevando la voz. “Nuestra gente debe ser independiente. Una porción creciente del electorado en todo el país se está identificando como independiente, y cuando llega la hora de la verdad [los políticos] cortejan a los independientes,” el dijo. Es elocuente que también recordara al público que la inmigración no lo es todo. Citando pérdidas hispanas durante la Gran Recesión, dijo, “la reforma de la vivienda, la crisis de los embargos de viviendas … no es sólo la inmigración, sino la asistencia médica, los puestos de trabajo,” y los problemas de la educación. Ser independiente es una gran opción — suficientemente cínicos para no dejarse engatusar por un político, pero también suficientemente optimistas para participar en el proceso político. Así pues, hispanos, únanse al grupo de los Electores No-afiliados — aquí serán bienvenidos y es menos probable que los den por sentados cuando llegue el momento de comprometerse en noviembre de 2016.

U Estudiantes de la Academy for Technology and the Classics comiendo al aire libre la semana pasada. ATC ha comenzado negociaciones para adquirir el edificio en Avan Nu Po Road, que permitirá los planes de expansión de la escuela, añadiendo un gimnasio, una cafetería, sala de música y laboratorios de ciencias.

ATC compra instalaciones, planea expansión Por Robert Nott The New Mexican
uando Jennifer Ferguson, maestra de biología de la Academy for Technology and the Classics, desea enseñar una clase práctica de ciencias, necesita reservar un aula de antemano. De lo contrario alguna actividad como el día de fotografías para los alumnos son prioridad. Ella sueña con el día en que sus estudiantes tengan un laboratorio con equipo de biología de vanguardia y un espacio para sus experimentos. Su deseo se hará realidad ahora que la escuela preparatoria chárter cierre el trato el lunes para asegurar los $4.3 millones de préstamo de Los Alamos National Bank para comprar las instalaciones de 27,000 pies cuadrados, ubicados en 10.5 acres de tierra en Avan Nu Po Road en el sur de la ciudad. La escuela hizo un pago inicial de $300,000 y pagará el resto en el curso de una hipoteca de 30 años con 4.25 porciento de interés. “No tienen idea del alivio de tener nuestro propio plantel,” comentó el martes la directora de ATC, Susan Lumley. “Es difícil de creer porque hemos trabajado por un largo tiempo en ello.” El trato del lunes hará de la escuela una instalación pública y permitirá a sus líderes ser elegibles para los beneficios de los bonos de obligación general disponibles en el 2017 para mantener y renovar el plantel. El plan es construir un segundo edificio en el campus que abarcará un gimnasio, sala de música y tres laboratorios de ciencias. Tannis Fox, presidenta del Consejo Directivo de la escuela, dijo que la escuela ahora puede usar $300,000 del bono de la elección del 2012 de distrito para implementar en planeación y diseño de la expansión. La escuela chárter del distrito abrió sus instalaciones en el 2000 y se mudó a su lugar actual en el 2007. En el 2011, la auditoría del distrito dio a conocer problemas de números en la administración financiera de la academia. La escuela tenía problemas tratando de pagar los $45,000
C
de renta cada mes a la Academy for Technology and the Classics Foundation – organización sin fines de lucro que maneja los negocios de la escuela – que a su vez paga la renta al dueño del edificio, el tenedor de bonos Hamlin Management Group de Nueva York. El distrito suspendió temporalmente el carácter chárter de la academia hasta que logró poner sus finanzas en orden. El distrito ofreció hasta $215,000 para ayudar a la escuela y restituyó su carácter chárter en mayo del 2012. Los líderes de Hamlin redujeron la renta mensual con la condición de que la escuela llegara a un acuerdo de renta-compra para comprar la propiedad en determinado momento. El presidente del cuerpo estudiantil de la academia, Sam Lewis, dijo el martes que las buenas noticias benefician a todos los involucrados. Comentó que la falta de espacios en la cafetería obliga a los estudiantes a comer en los salones de clases o al aire libre. Sobre el gimnasio, con la excepción de correr y basquetbol, los estudiantes tienen que ir a otros lugares – incluyendo el Institute of American Indian Arts – para prácticas de atletismo. Lewis dijo que la expansión también dará un espacio a los estudiantes para sus asambleas. Por el momento, usan las canchas de basquetbol al aire libre, donde “es extremadamente ventoso. El tratar de instalar el equipo de sonido es una pesadilla. Estamos siempre a las vísperas del pronóstico del tiempo.” La escuela opera con un presupuesto anual de alrededor de $2.67 millones. Recibió una A en el sistema de calificación A-F del estado este año y fue catalogada como una de las mejores escuelas chárter del país, de acuerdo a un reporte de las escuelas chárter del U.S. News & World Report la primavera pasada. El reporte también mencionó a la academia como la cuarta mejor escuela chárter en Nuevo México. La presidenta del consejo Fox comentó que la escuela aún no analiza si la expansión incrementará su presupuesto o las necesidad de más personal.

na mañana de otoño después del harvest time, Canutito estaba poking around by the barn. He went para donde estaban los caballos y los hizo pet. Next he went over pa’l place donde Grampo Caralampio kept el grano and he fed las gallinas. Finally he walked over pa’l garden que estaba covered con escarcha. He wiped away some of this frost and he found una calabaza lying on the ground. Esta particular pumpkin attracted su atención porque estaba toda orange and round y perfecta para hacer una jacko-lantern. Canutito picked it up and carLarry Torres ried it back Growing up pa’la cocina Spanglish de su grama. “Grama,” he said as he walked por la puerta de la cocina con la calabaza, “Do you have a cuchillo I can borrow?” “Ay m’hijo,” Grama Cuca said, “¿Por qué quieres tú un knife?” “I want to carvear una jack-olantern con esta calabaza,” Canutito replied. “By the way, ¿cómo se dice ‘jack-o-lantern’ en español, grama?” “Una jack-o-lantern se llama ‘un farol fatuo’ en español,” grama said, “Pero,” she added, “if you say ‘farol fatuo’ nobody va a hacer understand what you are saying so we just called it ‘una jack-o-lantern’.” Grama Cuca went pa’l trastero and got un cuchillo and gave it a Canutito. “Now be very careful,” she admonished al muchachito. “I don’t want you to cortarte and bleed all over la mesa.” Primero Canutito cortó un circle and removed the top de la calabaza. Then he asked Grama Cuca to bring him una cuchara. After grama had brought him the spoon, he took la cuchara and hizo scoop out todas las seeds and other mugres que estaban inside the pumpkin. “These guts de la calabaza sure are slimy,” remarcó. “I guess que these stringy parts son las tripas.” Next Canutito tomó un marker and he drew una mean face en la calabaza. Entonces con el cuchillo carveó los ojos, la nariz y la boca de la calabaza. “There,” he said, “Mi jack-o-lantern está toda ready para Halloween.” “It is not quite lista yet,” said Grama Cuca, going over pa’l buffet. Abrió uno de los drawers and she took out una small candle. She brought la vela back to Canutito saying, “Ahora light la vela and let some of the wax drip down inside de la jack-o-lantern and stand the candle in it.” Just as Canutito puso el top back on the jack-o-lantern Grampo Caralampio came into la cocina y se sentó at the table. “Look grampo,” dijo el muchachito. “Yo carveé una jack-o-lantern.” “You know que you and esa jack-o-lantern tienen mucho en common,” Grama Cuca said, coming back pa’la mesa. “How is that, grama?” Canutito asked her. “You are como una calabaza que hace grow out of la tierra de una seed. Entonces God plucks you out and He cuts into you para hacer remove all the mugres and junk que you have been carrying inside of you toda la vida,” grama said. “Después God takes esa mean face que tienes and hace carve better ojos, nariz and boca on it. Lastly He puts una candle, que es la luz del Holy Spirit, into you so that you will shine en la noche del mundo that is all dark.” Canutito listened to el sermón de su grama con atención. He had never thought de que una jack-o-lantern podía ser something spiritual y buena. Grampo Caralampio looked at Canutito and he leaned over y le dijo en la oreja, “Your grama can find God en todas las cosas. She can even find una interpretación para Dios en una jack-o-lantern.” Canutito nomás hizo shrug sus shoulders. He was afraid de mencionar a ‘Halloween’ porque Grama Cuca might find algo espiritual in that too …

In most White reports in the article. cases that means AP, International Students and parents who think that Baccalaureate or the Advanced Interway are sadly misinformed. Among national Certificate of Education.
Selective colleges also like to see three to five AP courses, with good scores on the tests to show that the student is ready for college work. That can be accomplished by taking one AP course sophomore year, one or two in the junior year and one or two in the senior year — not an overwhelming burden for any student with a shot at a selective college. Taking six, seven, eight or 20 AP courses will almost never make you more attractive to those colleges that reject more students than they accept. Your chances with them depend on your SAT or ACT scores, the depth of your extracurricular activities, the warmth of your teacher recommendations and your grade-point average compared with other students at your school applying to the same college. White quotes some experts and local educators who blame me and my annual America’s Most Challenging High Schools list for putting pressure
on students to take AP, IB or AICE classes. Such pressure existed for families with selective college ambitions long before I created the list. I measure AP test participation, not AP test scores. The list was designed to encourage high schools to get students heading for non-selective colleges to take AP, IB or AICE courses also. They need that kind of academic challenge — one or two AP courses and exams — to be ready for any college. Most high schools don’t encourage average students to take such courses — and in some cases the schools bar them from doing so. White provides much detail on how Arlington, Va., high schools have pioneered ways to get low-income and minority students into AP and IB courses and succeed. They get extra support with special clubs and classes. “I feel like I’m around smarter people now, so the classes go more smoothly. … I like being challenged,” an African

ach Gutierrez sat with his arms slightly raised in front of his chest as if taking a defensive position in a fight — no surprise, given the De Vargas Middle School student’s love of boxing. He was contemplating a different kind of challenge: signing up for a new mentorship program that would require him to show up two hours a week to learn about his other passion — computers. He’d like to design new apps, learn how to take a computer apart and fix it, and deal with interactive programs. But there’s something in this deal that scares him more than taking a right cross: “I don’t want to be seen as a geek.” Still, he’s interested. “Who knows if I’m ever gonna have this chance again?” he said. The city of Santa Fe, working with several community partners, including the nonprofits Academy for the Love of Learning and Siete del Norte, is launching a citywide pilot mentoring program called Inspire Santa Fe this year. Mayor Javier Gonzales announced the plan last week in the courtyard of the Luna complex on Cerrillos Road. The idea is to match students ages 12 to 19 who have a passion in a particular field with an adult professional mentor who shares that passion. The mentor and student work together to design the specifics of the program. An art student, for instance, may spend the entire two hours drawing or painting with a mentor, or break that time up with visits to art galleries, researching famous artists or a combination of all those components. Speaking by phone, the mayor

The Santa Fe High School Innovation Academy received a $100,552 workforce development grant from the Public Education Department that will help provide funds to develop project-based STEM-focused modules, provide professional development and mentorship opportunities for teachers, and buy a classroom digital data collection system for students to use, among other measures. The school also received $10,206 from the Public Education Department to supplement the Innovation Academy’s robotics program with the purchase of robotics kits that can be used both in the classroom and during

summer camps. That grant will also support the cost of students traveling to Bernalillo next spring to compete in the state’s RoboRAVE, an annual robotics competition. THREE BLUE RIBBON SCHOOLS IN NEW MEXICO U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan announced the names of 337 schools — including three in New Mexico — identified as National Blue Ribbon Schools for 2014. Schools were chosen because their standardized test scores in reading and math put them near the top-performing schools in the country or because they made big improvements in closing the achievement gap. The three New Mexico schools are Dora Elementary School in Dora, Berrendo Middle School in Roswell and Texico High School in Texico. Last Wednesday, Gov. Susana Martinez visited Berrendo to honor its educators, students and parents.

MURDER AND BURGLARS ONSTAGE AT HIGH SCHOOLS Both Capital High School and Santa Fe High School are mounting appropriately autumny theater shows next week. Capital presents Conrad Seiler’s Good Night, Caroline, about a burglar who hides in the closet of a married couple’s bedroom, forcing the wife to deal with his criminal high jinks. The show opens at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 16, and runs again at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 17; 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 23, and Friday, Oct. 24; and 3:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 25, at the Bryan Fant Theater at Capital High, 4851 Paseo del Sol. Tickets are $5. Meanwhile, Santa Fe High is offering up the theatrical adaptation of the popular board game Clue, featuring six suspects in an isolated mansion and, of course, a dead body. Is the culprit Col. Mustard or Professor Plum or Miss Scarlet or one of the others? The show opens at 7:33 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 16, and runs again at 7:33 p.m. Friday, Oct. 17, and Saturday, Oct. 18, in the school’s theater at 2100 Yucca St. Tickets are $10 and $7.
recommended the students to Biderman after talking with each of them individually. Some may have a reputation as troublemakers, others are just gifted, Ducharme said. All of them want a shot at learning more about a professional field. De Vargas eighth-grader Fabiola Rodriguez has been making art since she was a little kid. “When I draw, I put all my emotion in my art,” she told Biderman. “If I’m sad, I would draw something sad.” She draws every day and is particularly fond of animé. Biderman explained that if she signs up for the program (students must sign a contract committing to the deal for nine months), she would be expected to put together a portfolio and display her art in a public setting by the end of the next semester. “That sounds really nice,” Rodriguez said. Biderman asked her to visualize her mentor — male, female, young, old, cartoonist, photographer? “It doesn’t matter as long as they can teach me well,” she said. The program will serve at least 50 youths this year, including students from private, charter and public schools. The city is investing about $35,000 into the program. Students don’t have to pay anything for the program, and mentors volunteer for free. Students do have to find transportation to visit their mentors on a regular basis. Gutierrez said Inspire Santa Fe appeals to him. “I want to be one of those guys who works for Microsoft or Apple,” he said. For more information on the program visit www.inspiresantafe. org.

COMMUNITY COLLEGES TO BENEFIT FROM $15M GRANT More than 10 community colleges in New Mexico — including the Santa Fe Community College — will receive a total of $14.9 million in a Department of Labor TAACCT (Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training) grant this year. The money will be distributed among the schools to provide education and training directly to the unemployed or underemployed workers. The colleges are Central New Mexico Community College; San Juan Community College; the two Eastern New Mexico University campuses in Roswell and Ruidoso; New Mexico State University at Alamogordo; the University of New Mexico campuses in Gallup, Los Alamos, Taos and Valencia; and Mesalands Community College. Santa Fe Community College will receive $5,682,378 for coordinating the grant.

American student told White in her article. White also exposes the effects of peer pressure, including the experience by a student who took a fourth AP class her junior year because her friends were taking it. When she found herself taking sick days to catch up with her work, she wisely dropped the class. A student who can’t handle more than one AP class a year shouldn’t take more than that. Disturbingly, there are many students throughout the country — one study put the number last year at 300,000 — who can handle a few AP classes, but aren’t taking any.

Parents have power to halt over-testing
G
ov. Susana Martinez’s Public Education Department recently contracted global testing giant Pearson for Common Core PARCC testing in New Mexico public schools, at a price tag of $1 billion. The entire state education budget is about $2 billion per year. Pearson creates and grades the GED and nearly every K-12 standardized test in the U.S. It owns junk virtual schools, sells junk curricula that panders to its tests and controls teacher certification exams. It has come under fire for sloppy, error-ridden and developmentally inappropriate tests, improper no-bid contracting, sabotaging student teachers and running “school improvement programs” in Atlanta, where its employees are charged with cheating in the largest test-cheating scandal in the U.S. Standardized testing has no proven educational value. Teachers, parents and students never see the tests, before or after they are graded. corporations are sucking bilMY VIEW Testing lions out of our public schools. Their CATE greed, not children’s needs, is driving every decision in public education. MOSES Test results are widely abused for purposes like teacher and school evaluation. Our children and teachers are being subjected to Dickensian regimes in order to keep Pearson’s profits soaring and “reformers” like Education Secretary-designate Hanna Skandera and Santa Fe Public Schools Superintendent Joel Boyd in business. Students are being over-tested as never before. The ridiculous argument recently made by SFPS Board of Education member Steven Carrillo that, “We’ve always had tests; what’s the problem?” belies current reality. Santa Fe Public Schools mandates testing above excessive state requirements. Although the school district denies it, anyone with kids in school knows that testing now consumes roughly two full months of the school year. High-stakes testing disrupts every class in a school, including those not being tested that day. It takes over libraries and computer labs. Field trips and everything involving learning, creativity and critical thinking are considered time-wasting activities, because they are not about the tests. Teachers are under surveillance and edict to make every “instructional moment” test prep. With the phasing in of Common Core, testing has increased. Kindergartners are required to submit to tests on computers, creating scenarios like this one, described by a kindergarten teacher on the Seattle Education blog: “One class took five hours to finish. Kids crying in four of five classes. Multiple computer crashes. … Kids accidentally swapping tangled headsets and not even noticing what they heard had nothing to do with what they saw on the screen. … No verbal explanation that you must click the little speaker square to hear the instructions. To go to the next question, one clicks ‘next’ in lower right-hand corner … which is also where the pop-up menu comes up to take you to other programs or shut down. … If this is not what you want for your kids and grandkids, you’d better start making some noise. … ” The power to end the grossly excessive testing of our children is in parents’ hands. We have the right to opt our children out of all state and district required testing. It is the simplest act we can undertake for our children and for public education. When a critical mass of parents opts out, we will bring down the house of cards that is profit-driven education “reform.” The reformers know this, and they are afraid. Teachers and staff who inform parents about their right to opt out are being gagged by district administrators. Parents are being told that their decision to opt out is harming children and schools. When parents stand united with teachers to end standardized testing, we can bring joy, critical thinking and creativity to our schools.

Mom with risky womb transplant says it paid off First baby born from donated uterus in Sweden a ‘feat’ By Maria Cheng The Associated Press
LONDON or the world’s first baby born to a woman with a transplanted womb — a medical first — only a victorious name would do. Which is why his parents named him “Vincent,” meaning “to conquer,” according to his mother. The 36-year-old Swedish mother learned she had no womb when she was 15 and was devastated, she said Saturday in an interview with The Associated Press. “I was terribly sad when doctors told me I would never carry my own child,” said the woman, who asked not to be identified. More than a decade later, she heard about research led by Dr. Mats Brannstrom, a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Gothenburg and Stockholm IVF, on transplanting wombs into women who didn’t have one. She immediately signed up. “Mats told us there were no guarantees, but my partner and I, maybe we like to take risks, we thought this was the perfect idea,” she said. The woman’s mother had wanted to be a donor but wasn’t a match. Instead, she received her new womb from a 61-year-old family friend, who had previously had two sons. The womb donor is now baby Vincent’s godmother and her two sons have also come to visit the family. “She is an amazing person and she will always be in our lives,” the mother said. “And she has a very special connection to my son.”
F
Brannstrom said it was “a fantastic feeling” to know that his research had led to Vincent’s birth. The feat opens up a new but still experimental alternative for some of the thousands of women who are unable to have children because they lost a uterus to cancer or were born without one. Others have questioned whether such an extreme step — expensive and fraught with medical risks — would be a realistic option for many women. Dr. Glenn Schattman, past president of the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technologies and a Cornell University fertility specialist, said womb transplants are likely to remain very uncommon. “This would not be done unless there were no other options,” he said. “It requires a very long surgery and not without risk and complications.” For the proud parents, the years of research and experimentation were well worth the wait. “It was a pretty tough journey over the years, but we now have the most amazing baby,” the father said in a telephone interview. “He is very, very cute, and he doesn’t even scream, he just murmurs.” He said he and his wife, both competitive athletes, were convinced the procedure would work, despite its experimental nature. Brannstrom and colleagues transplanted wombs into nine women over the last two years as part of a study, but complications forced removal of two of the organs. Earlier this year, Brannstrom began transferring embryos into the seven other women. He said there are two other pregnancies at least 25 weeks along. Before these cases, there had been two attempts to transplant a womb — in Saudi Arabia and Turkey — but no live births resulted. Doctors in Britain, France, Japan, Turkey and

elsewhere are planning to try similar operations, but using wombs from women who have just died instead of from live donors. The Swedish woman had healthy ovaries, but she was born without a uterus — a syndrome seen in one girl in 4,500. The donor had gone through menopause after giving birth to two children. Brannstrom said that he was surprised such an old uterus was so successful, but that the most important factor seemed to be that the womb was healthy. The recipient has had to take three medicines to prevent her body from rejecting the new organ. About six weeks after the transplant, she got her menstrual period — a sign the womb was healthy. After one year, when doctors were confident the womb was working well, they transferred a single embryo created in a lab dish using the woman’s eggs and her husband’s sperm. After an abnormal fetal heart rate was detected, the baby was delivered by cesarean section. He weighed 3.9 pounds — normal for that stage of pregnancy. Full gestation is about 40 weeks. The baby was released from the neonatal unit 10 days after birth. Brannstrom said he was concerned he might have hurt the womb during the C-section and said they would have to wait a couple of months before knowing if a second pregnancy is possible. “As soon as I felt this perfect baby boy on my chest, I had tears of happiness and enormous relief,” the mother said. “I felt like a mother the first time I touched my baby and was amazed that we finally did it.” “I have always had this large sorrow because I never thought I would be a mother,” she said. “And now the impossible has become real.”

Vocational rehabilitation services that Lucero provides and the civil right protection of the ADA have increased employment opportunities for people with disabilities. According to the latest U.S. census survey, over 27 percent of working age individuals with a severe disability are working. Yet, employment discrimination against people with disabilities in the workplace still exists, for a variety of reasons. For example, a Wharton School management study in 2013 identified three key obstacles to hiring disabled workers. One is negative employer perceptions — for example, the fear felt by employers that employees with disabilities will create more work for their supervisors. Another obstacle is lack of external hiring support — the
fact that employers will find very few resources on the outside that are available to help recruit the disabled. The third factor is lack of internal hiring support, which the Wharton brief says is often a budgetary problem arising from the fact that funds don’t exist for creating internal employer expertise in “hiring, accommodating and training people with disabilities.” “As a person with a disability, it is difficult to change the beliefs, attitudes and perceptions of employers towards hiring people with disabilities. For the most part, you cannot change those things. It is up to the person with the disability to prove they have something to offer,” Lucero said. October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month. This year’s theme is “Expect. Employ. Empower.” It is an opportune time for businesses to educate employees and the public about disability employment issues and celebrate the many and varied contributions of America’s workers with disabilities.

different kind of ant took over the yard this summer. Without fanfare, a bunch of little black ants expelled the old red ants that were twice their size and claimed what seems to be desirable territory on the edge of a small lawn. These ants don’t seem to bite or sting anybody. They haven’t come into the house by eating through a corner of the ceiling, as their predecessors managed to do. The new ant franchise has done very well, to the point that they are now conspicuously entrenched, with a couple dozen nests marked by small sand cones in the grass, flowerbeds and gravel driveway. A stream of foraging ants now run along the top of the trimming that separates the Roger grass from the garden like comSnodgrass muters going both directions in one lane. If they meet, as Dante Science Matters observed in his epic 15th century poem The Divine Comedy, it is with hardly a pause, “rubbing each other’s noses to ask perhaps/what luck they’ve had, or which way they should go.” Sitting in a lawn chair with my feet up in order to avoid the slightly frenzied swarming that begins as soon as they notice an alien presence on their property, I soon realized that I knew next to nothing about them. “Ants are everywhere but only occasionally noticed,” begins the Pulitzer-Prize-winning treatise on ants by Edward O. Wilson and Bert Holldöbler published in 1990. A very big book in every sense The Ants made up for centuries of neglect and re-established the members of the ant family as “the paragons of the insect world” rivalling humans in their mastery of the terrestrial environment. Wilson drew upon the emerging science of cybernetics to analyze the way ants were able to make and interpret chemical signals to communicate alarms and help organize foraging paths and synchronize group behaviors. Documenting ants’ social and communication achievements, their ability to leverage their cooperative abilities on behalf of their community as a whole, the authors concluded that ants represent, “the culmination of insect evolution, in the same sense that human beings represent the summit of vertebrate evolution.” There are some 12,000 different species of ants in the world, with estimates of another 10,000 waiting to be classified. Total ant population would probably number in the quadrillions of individuals, and according to Wilson’s back-of-the envelope calculation, may have a combined mass approximately equivalent to humans. Ants have a long history. They shared the landscape with the dinosaurs. They come from a class of animals that invented flight and by their seemingly selfless service to their siblings and their nest or colony, began to define what it means to be in a society with related creatures. “Wilson’s pioneering work on ants, to which he brought his immense gift for making accessible to everyone the fascination of nature, was the starting point for modern research on social insects,” writes Deborah Gordon, in her book Ant Encounters: Interaction Networks and Colony Behavior. A biologist at Stanford University, Gordon is also a member of the science board of the Santa Fe Institute and one of the scientists who has extended Wilson and Holldöbler’s findings for the age of complex systems. “I’ve recently realized that ants are using interactions differently in different environments, and that got me thinking that we could learn from this about other systems, like brains and data networks that we engineer, and even cancer,” she said in talk to a Technology, Education and Design conference earlier this year in which she summarized some of the more visionary implications of her research. “The Internet uses an algorithm to regulate the flow of data that’s very similar to the one that harvester ants are using to regulate the flow of foragers,” she said in one example. She calls the analogy “the Anternet.” Her point was that this was only one ant algorithm we know about so far, “and ants have had 130 million years to evolve a lot of good ones, and I think it is very likely that some of the other 12,000 species are going to have interesting algorithms for data networks that we haven’t even thought of yet.” Ants have come a long way and seem likely to stay awhile longer. The Massachusetts Agricultural College issued a bulletin in 1889, relating experiments that had been made for the destruction of ants in lawns and walks, like sprinkling sugar on a sponge to attract the ants and then killing them. That will work, the researchers wrote hesitantly, “But when we remember that the females are constantly laying eggs to produce workers which will take the place of those already destroyed, the task seems almost hopeless.” Contact Roger Snodgrass at roger.sno@gmail.com

In brief Balloon thieves strike Fiesta A California woman wasn’t able to honor her late husband at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta after a thief made off with the balloon her daughter planned to pilot. Police say Lucinda Wallace’s hot air balloon was taken early Saturday morning from the Nativo Hotel. The suspect also took a trailer holding the balloon and a Chevrolet Suburban with a California license plate that reads “baluner.” Wallace says daughter Marilyn was going to fly it in memory of her father. Rick Wallace died more than two months ago of cancer. The balloon is blue with a rainbow design and a U.S. flag on the side.
Meanwhile, the family flew back to Santa Monica, Calif., to get another balloon and drive back to the Fiesta.

cept. “We want to bring this to the world,” Paull said. It isn’t known if the sudden interest caused it, but their business concerns recently were the subject of a cyberattack that left them scrambling to cancel bank accounts, changing passwords and rebuilding connections with their provider. It was a wake-up call. Robbins, in an email, said, “We hired someone to put a crowdfunding site up for us and had to send some login information. That email must have gotten intercepted because the hacker took all of our domains.
We are working with [the provider] and the FBI to get it all back. … The timing was terrible since we just sent out a press release with our links, to audition online, join our social networking site … and our crowdfunding site. It gives us another chance to make everything even better and to trust that universe is conspiring to give us the greatest good — what seemed devastating is an opportunity to make things better.” Ultimately, Robbins and Paull say they hope the show will create the first “marijuana millionaire.” In an introductory video, contestants make pitches for a variety of products using cannabis or hemp, the nonintoxicating variety of the weed. Then, judges work with them to help refine their products to make them viable in the marketplace. That means bringing them together with lawyers and marketers. Now, the first thing that might come to mind for some readers is whether all this is really a smoke screen for a way to make using the weed recreationally more commonplace.
Police notes The Santa Fe Police Department took the following reports: u A man who lives in the 2000 block of Calle de Sebastian said that while he was working in his backyard between 12:30 and 1:45 p.m. Saturday, someone entered his garage and stole $3,000 in tools and a Craftsman toolbox worth $200. u Police arrested Nicole Romero, 34, of Santa Fe at 9:48 p.m. Saturday in the 4600 block of Airport Road and charged her with driving with a revoked license, possession of heroin and possession of drug paraphernalia. u Police arrested Sean Gallegos, 24, of Albuquerque at 11:45 p.m. Saturday in the 6800 block
The couple say that’s a simplistic way to look at their project. The thing to recognize, they say, is that this is a new and potentially lucrative market that not only taps the recreational element, but more importantly the medicinal and industrial use. “We aren’t out to convert anyone,” Paull said. On the final show of their initial seven-show season, the judges/investors/mentors will either take them on as partners or mentors, or maybe give them the kind of capital they need to develop their product. If the show becomes a success, they mmight shoot future seasons in marijuana-friendly places like Washington state and Oregon. The show begins with a disclaimer that says marijuana is considered illegal on a federal level. That’s why they have a team of Taos lawyers on hand to scrutinize all aspects of the show and potential products and uses. Paull and Robbins now are looking at debuting the show online.

clinic focused on integrative and intercultural prevention and wellness. Weil’s appearance promises “an hour-plus of presentation and interactive discussion on the health significance of blending conventional Western and ancient botanical medicines with nutrition, meditation, spirituality and more, for a longer, more active and fulfilling life,” according to a news release from the university. “I’m going to talk about the history of medicine, how we got to where we are and why we’re in a crisis that’s not going away,” Weil said. He expects a receptive audience in Santa Fe, where the population is highly attuned to alternative medicine.

Web class teaches ‘How to Learn’ A
big problem with the performance of any public school is the learning capabilities of the students. There is a website, www.coursera.org, that can help. Beginning in October, the site is offering a free course through through UCLA titled “How to Learn.” It is free, and is a must do for every middle school, high school and college student. I wish this had been available when I was a kid. Do your students and the world a favor. Get them into this class.

The formerly powerful far-right climate-denying American Legislative Exchange Council saw corporations from Google to Occidental Petroleum abandon it recently, as indigenous women led the extraordinarily diverse march and United Nations climate meeting. How disappointing to now learn the Senate has passed Tom Udall’s bill to streamline BLM energy drilling permits. This is exactly the wrong direction for New Mexico. Sen. Udall has lost my support.

People don’t care In response to the recent letter (“Yes, cleanup,” Letters to the editor, Sept. 27), here is my thought on why the city’s cleanliness is not maintained: People just don’t care. I am very disturbed about how people in this community
have no regard for environment cleanliness. We have one of the best-looking areas in this community. Neighbors will attest to that. I make an attempt to keep it as neat as I can. In this community, however, people keep trashing it all of the time — almost daily. I have to pick up trash, half-eaten food, cans, bottles of booze and soda. One morning, I noticed that someone had dumped ashtrays of butts right in front of my driveway on the street, on the corner of Jay and Quapaw streets. Tell these people that next time they want to dump their trash, to dump it at their own pigsty or their family’s home — not ours. Ben Mendoza

Gun safety As a Presbyterian pastor, I was pleased to see my denomination, the Presbyte-
rian Church (USA), recently observe a Global Week of Action against Gun Violence beginning Sept. 23. Pleased but not surprised. Presbyterians seldom shy away from difficult and volatile issues of injustice, exploitation and violence. The Presbyterians I know are in conversation with elected officials, interfaith and ecumenical communities, and folks from every spectrum and perspective to seek the well being of all. As always, it will take civil discourse, creative thinking and bold steps to stop gun violence and raise hope for a safer, more peaceful world. Presbyterians are part of this movement. So is the group, New Mexicans for Gun Safety (www.facebook. com/NewMexicansForGunSafety). What about you? The Rev. Dr. Harry W. Eberts III

COMMENTARY: CHRISTOPHER INGRAHAM
U.S. must improve infant death rate WASHINGTON he United States has a higher infant mortality rate than any of the other 27 wealthy countries, according to a new report from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A baby born in the U.S. is nearly three times as likely to die during her first year of life as one born in Finland or Japan. That same American baby is about twice as likely to die in her first year as a Spanish or Korean one. Despite health care spending levels that are significantly higher than in any other country in the world, a baby born in the U.S. is less likely to see his first birthday than one born in Hungary, Poland or Slovakia. Or in Belarus. Or in Cuba, for that matter. The U.S. rate of 6.1 infant deaths per 1,000 live births masks considerable statelevel variation. If Alabama were a country, its rate of 8.7 infant deaths per 1,000 would place it slightly behind Lebanon in the world rankings. Mississippi, with its 9.6 deaths, would be somewhere between Botswana and Bahrain. We’re the wealthiest nation in the world. How did we end up like this? New research, in a draft paper from Alice Chen of the University of South California, Emily Oster of the University of Chicago, and Heidi Williams of MIT, offers up some clues. They note that the infant mortality gap between the U.S. and other wealthy nations has been persistent — and is poorly understood.

The uproar being raised about testing in New Mexico schools is ridiculous. It is important that our students be prepared for the next grade, college or the next step in their life. We need standards. Gov. Susana Martinez is doing what is necessary for New Mexico to help struggling students, get students to graduate and support our teachers. Some of the improvements New Mexico has seen thus far are phenomenal, and we need to keep them going. New Mexico is finally No. 1 on a good list: Our state is No. 1 in the nation for improving graduation rates. Policies are working, and I think people need to give our education system a chance to keep helping students do their best.

One factor, according to the paper: “Extremely preterm births recorded in some places may be considered a miscarriage or still birth in other countries. Since survival before 22 weeks or under 500 grams is very rare, categorizing these births as live births will inflate reported infant mortality rates (which are reported as a share of live births).” Oster and her colleagues found that this reporting difference accounts for up to 40 percent of the U.S. infant mortality disadvantage relative to Austria and Finland. This is somewhat heartening. But what about that other 60 percent? “Most striking,” they write, “the U.S. has similar neonatal mortality but a substantial disadvantage in postneonatal mortality” compared to Austria and Finland. In other words, mortality rates among infants in their first days and weeks of life are similar across all three countries. But as infants get older, a mortality gap opens between the U.S. and the other countries, and widens considerably. Digging deeper into these numbers, Oster and her colleagues found that the higher U.S. mortality rates are due “entirely, or almost entirely, to high mortality among less advantaged groups.” To put it bluntly, babies born to poor moms in the U.S. are significantly more likely to die in their first year than babies born to wealthier moms. In fact, infant mortality rates among wealthy Americans are similar to the

mortality rates among wealthy Fins and Austrians. The difference is that in Finland and Austria, poor babies are nearly as likely to survive their first years as wealthy ones. In the U.S. that is starkly not the case: “there is tremendous inequality in the U.S., with lower education groups, unmarried and African-American women having much higher infant mortality rates,” the authors conclude. One way to understand these numbers is by noting that most American babies, regardless of socioeconomic status, are born in hospitals. And while in the hospital, American infants receive exceedingly good care — our neonatal intensive care units are among the best in the world. This may explain why mortality rates in the first few weeks of life are similar in the U.S., Finland and Austria. But the differences arise after infants are sent home. Poor American families have considerably less access to quality health care as their wealthier counterparts. One measure of the Affordable Care Act’s success, then, will be whether it leads to improvements in the infant mortality rate. Oster and her colleagues note that ACA contains provisions to expand postnatal home nurse visits, which are fairly common in Europe. This commentary was first published in The Washington Post.
or all the worry that many U.S. teenagers don’t understand history, we can see from recent protests in Colorado that some students understand their country’s history better than adults. So much so, that these teens and their parents are protesting what they see as efforts by a local school board to censor their history lessons. At issue is the new curriculum for Advanced Placement history courses, set by the College Board (that’s the nonprofit in charge of both AP exams and the SAT). The new curriculum came about in 2012, after the College Board called for a revision of the course to encourage teachers to go more in-depth. These tests matter, too. Students who score well on the AP exams receive college credit for their work, a big savings in college tuition. The new course description didn’t cause much of a stir until July — that’s when some members of the Texas State Board of Education expressed worries that the AP classes would introduce Common Core State Standards in Texas schools, where it is banned by state law. By August, the Republican National Committee had passed a resolution claiming the new curriculum is too negative. The fight has continued to gain steam, causing the Texas State Board of Education to pass a resolution in September asking that the AP U.S. history curriculum be rewritten “in a transparent manner to accurately reflect U.S. history without a political bias.” The controversy spilled over to Colorado, where a divided school board in Jefferson County wants changes to the course for the 84,000-student district near Denver because of its alleged America-bashing. Colorado students have been walking out of classrooms to protest the school board’s position. Other states investigating the standards include Tennessee and South Carolina. New Mexico, thankfully, is not so foolish (yet). The Jefferson County Board — and other conservatives — want history standards to promote patriotism and civics, emphasizing what they think is great about America. The young people, on the other hand, are demanding complex, rich content that reveals the United States, warts and all. Their protests are in the best tradition of American civil disobedience. The adults need to sort this out and should do so quickly. AP tests meet a national standard, and local boards do not get to set the course curriculum. Local districts can opt out, of course, but that will — and should — mean that students will be less able to win valuable college credit through acing the AP exam. Either play by the rules, or resign yourself that students won’t have the same opportunity to score college credit. History is not one-sided, nor is it a series of memorized facts. The United States’ role at home or abroad is not always praise-worthy. (In Colorado, for example, there must be mention of the Sand Creek Massacre.) These protesting teenagers have a firm grasp on what history class should be. Would that adults share their wisdom.
The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Oct. 6, 1914: More support has been extended to the Woman’s Board of Trade, this time by the Wallace Reading Club, which proposes to give a series of card parties for its benefit. Tickets for the parties have been put on sale this week. The first party will take place at the home of Miss Mueller Saturday afternoon, and succeeding ones will be held at the homes of other members of the club. Oct. 6, 1964: A U.S. Bureau of Mines official today urged use of nuclear underground explosions to stimulate natural gas production in areas such as northwestern New Mexico’s San Juan Basin. It is thought that nuclear explosives could be used safely for this purpose and radioactivity is not an insurmountable problem. It is being urged that a test be made soon to determine the economics of such a process.

CHICAGO — It’s one of the most famous Abraham Lincoln photographs, largely because no one knew the picture of the dead president lying in an open coffin existed for nearly a century until a 14-year-old boy found it. On Tuesday, Ronald Rietveld — the boy who made the discovery and is now a retired historian — will donate his original notes about the picture to the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum in Springfield. The photo marks one of the last chapters of a story that began in April 1865, just days after Lincoln was assassinated in Washington. On a stop in New York City, one of a number of places Lincoln’s remains were displayed while being taken by train to Springfield for burial, a photographer was allowed to take a picture of the president in an open coffin. Lincoln’s secretary of war, Edwin M. Stanton, apparently heard about the photograph and ordered it and all prints and negatives destroyed. All were, except for one sent to Stanton. Rietveld enters the story in the early 1950s when, as a teenager fascinated with Lincoln, he attended the dedication of a collection of Lincolnrelated items at the University of Iowa. Harry Pratt, the state historian of Illinois and a Lincoln scholar, was so impressed with Rietveld that he invited him to Springfield to see the 16th president’s home and tomb. Pratt also let Rietveld look through papers of John Nicolay and John Hay, who were White House secretaries
when Lincoln was president. Hay’s daughter donated the papers to the Illinois State Historical Library in 1943. Rietveld came upon an envelope sent to Nicolay in 1887 by Stanton’s son, who explained that he’d found some of his father’s papers and thought Nicolay might want them. “Then I opened up the folded sheet of plain stationery and there lay a faded brown photograph,” Rietveld wrote in an article that appeared in Abraham Lincoln Online. At first he didn’t believe what he was seeing. “My first reaction was, ‘This can’t be’ because I knew Lincoln photography well enough to know there were no photographs of Lincoln in the coffin, there were no such pictures, period,” Rietveld, now 77, said in a phone interview Saturday. Pratt told Rietveld to keep quiet about the photo until he could determine its authenticity. Rietveld boarded a bus with his secret and returned home to Iowa where he didn’t say a word to anyone, including his mother. On the morning of Sept. 14, 1952, his mother shook him awake and told him that his grandfather had just called with news that a picture of Lincoln was all over the front page of the Des Moines newspaper, with Rietveld’s name front and center. “She wanted to know what I had done wrong,” said Rietveld, chuckling at the memory. “I told her I didn’t do anything wrong, I’d found the photograph during the summer in Springfield. The AP [Associated Press] had put my name all over the country.”

Manning’s 500th TD leads Broncos past Cards By Arnie Stapleton The Associated Press

DENVER — The best part of Peyton Manning’s big day was getting to share the spotlight with some of his best friends. Manning joined Brett Favre in the NFL’s most exclusive of clubs with his 500th touchdown toss Sunday when the Denver Broncos handed the Arizona Cardinals their first loss, 41-20. “Football is the ultimate team game, and so I guess one man has to accept it and I really accept it on behalf of a lot of coaches and teammates,” Manning said. Manning threw for 479 yards and four TDs, moving him within five of Favre’s record 508. After getting his touchstone touchdown — a 7-yard dart to tight end Julius Thomas — out of the way early, Manning helped Demaryius
Thomas and Wes Welker make history, too. Demaryius Thomas set a franchise record with 226 yards on eight catches, beating Shannon Sharpe’s mark of 214 yards set against Kansas City in 2002. Welker’s seven receptions moved him past Rod Smith for the most catches in NFL history by an undrafted player. He has 854, five more than Smith caught for Denver between 1995-2006. “I still can’t believe he was undrafted because that man can play some ball,” Demaryius Thomas said. Welker’s record-breaker came on the last play on the first half, something Manning called “kind of a ha-ha moment for scouting, for not drafting him. So, whoever was a general manager in 2004, those guys ought to send him an apology letter.”

Cowboys pull through
Royals beat L.A. Angels to finish off sweep By Dave Skretta The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Royals waited nearly three decades to return to the postseason. Now that they’re Royals 8 here, they want to stick around for a Angels 3 while. Alex Gordon hit a bases-clearing double in the first inning, Eric Hosmer and Mike Moustakas each homered and the wild-card Royals finished off a sweep of the mighty Los Angeles Angels with an emphatic 8-3 victory Sunday night in the AL Division Series. The scrappy team with the quirky manager, popgun offense, dynamic defense and lights-out bullpen will open the AL Championship Series against the Orioles beginning Friday night in Baltimore. Kansas City went 4-3 against the O’s this year. The Angels, 98-64 in the regular season, became the second team in the divisional era that began in 1969

Romo, Bryant carry Dallas past Texans in OT By Schuyler Dixon The Associated Press
ARLINGTON, Texas ony Romo took a few extra moments on the ground, right arm raised to celebrate a long touchdown pass after he escaped what looked like a sure sack for J.J. Watt. Then, when the 34-year-old quarterback playing with a surgically
T
repaired back made another offbalance throw under pressure in overtime, Dez Bryant’s spectacular catch saved the Dallas Cowboys from a late meltdown. Bryant’s jump-ball grab set up Dan Bailey’s winning 49-yard field goal, and the Cowboys bounced back from blowing a 10-point lead late in fourth quarter to beat the Houston Texans 20-17 on Sunday. “Just got to come down with it, come down with it,” said Bryant, who had game highs with nine catches and

Putting his swimming career on hold after his second drunkendriving arrest, Olympic champion Michael Phelps began a six-week program Sunday that he said “will provide the help I need to better understand myself.” The winningest athlete in Olympic history made the announcement in a series of posts on his Twitter account. According to his representatives at Octagon, Phelps entered an inpatient program that will keep him from competing at least through midNovember, though there’s no indica-
tion he plans to give up swimming. “The past few days have been extremely difficult,” Phelps said in a statement. “I recognize that this is not my first lapse Michael in judgment, and Phelps I am extremely disappointed with myself. I’m going to take some time away to attend a program that will provide the help I need to better understand myself. He added, “Swimming is a major part of my life, but right now I need to focus my attention on me as an
individual, and do the necessary work to learn from this experience and make better decisions in the future.” The 29-year-old Phelps was arrested early Tuesday and charged with drunken driving in his native Baltimore. Police said he failed a series of field sobriety tests and had a blood-alcohol content of 0.14 percent, well above the legal limit of 0.08. Phelps retired after the 2012 Olympics in London, having won a record 18 gold medals and 22 medals overall. But he returned to competition this year with the goal of making the 2016 Rio Games. His comeback has produced

encouraging results, including three golds and two silvers at the Pac Pacific Championships in August. Now, swimming is on the backburner. A statement from Octagon said Phelps was entering “a comprehensive program that will help him focus on all of his life experiences and identify areas of need for long-term personal growth and development.” “Michael takes this matter seriously and intends to share his learning experiences with others in the future,” the statement said. While Phelps was still working out
STARKVILLE, Miss. — Mississippi’s Southeastern Conference teams have never been this good and this close. Ole Miss and Mississippi State are tied for third in The Associated Press college football poll after a wild day of unexpected results brought major changes to the Top 25. Just about the only thing that didn’t change this week was No. 1: Florida State is still top-ranked, with 35 firstplace votes. Auburn, the only other team in the top six to win, moved up three spots to No. 2 and received 23 first-place votes. Then came Ole Miss and Mississippi State, in the top five together for the first time after the Rebels beat Alabama and the Bulldogs beat Texas A&M on Saturday. The Bulldogs received two firstplace votes. The Rebels haven’t been ranked this high since 1963, when they also were No. 3 and won their last SEC

MLB: AMERICAN LEAGUE DIVISION SERIES
Cruz, Orioles beat Tigers for series sweep By Noah Trister The Associated Press
DETROIT — A runaway title in a division of behemoths, then an unexpected sweep against a Orioles 2 trio of Cy Young winTigers 1 ners. For Nelson Cruz, Buck Showalter and this unheralded bunch from Baltimore, the question now is: What’s next? Cruz sliced a two-run homer for his latest big postseason hit, and the Orioles held off the Detroit Tigers 2-1 Sunday to reach the AL Championship Series for the first time since 1997. Bud Norris outpitched David Price in Game 3 of the AL Division Series. The Tigers scored in the ninth inning and put the tying run on second with no outs, but Orioles closer Zach Britton escaped the jam to lift Showalter into his first LCS in 16 seasons as a big league manager. “This is fun to watch. Believe me, I’m happier than you can imagine,” Showalter said. “But most of it comes from getting to see the players get what they’ve put into it.” Baltimore opens the ALCS on Friday at home against Kansas City. The Royals won the season series 4-3. “We’ve got a lot to go and we’re grinding,” outfielder Adam Jones said. “If we play as a team, we can do anything.” So often an afterthought in

the rugged AL East, the Orioles won their first division title since 1997 this year, dispatching the second-place New York Yankees by 12 games — and last-place Boston by more than double that margin. That put Baltimore up against another of the game’s most star-laden rosters, and Miguel Cabrera, Justin Verlander and the Tigers couldn’t manage a single win. Cruz’s homer Sunday was his 16th in postseason play, including eight against the Tigers. He was the MVP of the 2011 ALCS for Texas in a six-game victory over Detroit. Cruz spent much of this past offseason without a team after serving a 50-game suspension
last year for violating baseball’s drug agreement. “He knows things were selfinflicted,” Showalter said. “He really wanted to re-establish himself, and we thought that we could provide a real good opportunity for him, and the sky might be the limit.” Norris pitched two-hit ball for 6 1-3 innings, and Andrew Miller got five straight outs to keep the shutout going. Victor Martinez and J.D. Martinez opened the ninth with back-to-back doubles off Britton. Bryan Holaday struck out after a failed bunt attempt, and Showalter made the unconventional decision to put the winning run on base
by intentionally walking Nick Castellanos. That meant the bottom of Detroit’s lineup would have to come through. The Tigers sent up Hernan Perez — who had five at-bats in the regular season — to pinch hit, and he bounced a 96 mph fastball into a 5-4-3 double play. It was Britton’s second save of the series. Cruz led the majors with 40 homers this season, and the Orioles topped baseball with 211. It was his two-run homer in the first inning of the opener that set the series’ tone, and he came through again in the sixth inning against Price. Cruz’s drive cleared the wall in right, about 2 feet to the left of the foul pole. Not bad for a guy the Orioles signed in late February. Cruz turned down a $14.1 million qualifying offer that would have kept him with Texas — but he ended up having to settle for an $8 million, oneyear contract with Baltimore that included $750,000 in roster bonuses. Cruz’s powerful bat enabled the Orioles to withstand season-ending injuries to Manny Machado and Matt Wieters, as well as Chris Davis’ 25-game suspension for an amphetamine violation. Baltimore reached the ALCS in 1996 and 1997, losing to the Yankees and Cleveland. The Orioles went 3-4 against Kansas City this season and 4-2 against the Angels.
Royals: Angels managed 6 runs in series Continued from Page B-1 to have the best record in the majors and get swept out of the playoffs. In no small coincidence, the Royals dealt the same humiliating fate to the New York Yankees in the 1980 ALCS. Stalking around the mound amid an electric atmosphere, James Shields lived up to his “Big Game James” billing. The Royals’ ace gave up homers to Mike Trout and Albert Pujols, but otherwise held in check a suddenly punchless Los Angeles lineup. The highest-scoring team in baseball managed six runs in the entire series. Shields got plenty of help from the great gloves that made spectacular plays in every game. In this one, it was Lorenzo Cain making backto-back diving grabs in center field in the fifth inning that
ended an Angels’ rally and preserved a five-run lead. The Royals coasted the rest of the way to their seventh straight postseason victory dating to Game 5 of the 1985 World Series, the last time they were in the playoffs. George Brett, the star of that team, watched from an upstairs suite and raised his arms when ace closer Greg Holland fanned Trout for the final out. This bunch of Royals is certainly making up for all that lost time. Kansas City played a 12-inning thriller against Oakland in the wild-card game, and a pair of 11-inning games in Los Angeles before returning home to an adoring crowd at Kauffman Stadium. This one had none of the drama, not that anybody wearing blue cared. After Trout staked his team to the lead, Angels starter C.J.
Wilson quickly got into trouble. The left-hander with the $16 million price tag this season gave up back-to-back singles and a four-pitch walk in the first inning to load the bases for Gordon, whose slicing two-out double gave Kansas City a 3-1 lead. Sensing the game already slipping away, Angels manager Mike Scioscia immediately turned the game over to his bullpen. It didn’t fare a whole lot better. The Royals kept the pressure on, and even plodding designated hitter Billy Butler got in on the act, stealing second base to the roar of the crowd. It was his fifth career steal and first in two years, but it typified the way the Royals have been winning this postseason. Dazzling pitching, daring baserunning and some dogged determination. After swiping seven bases
and playing small-ball against the A’s, the club that hit the fewest homers in the regular season pounded out four long balls against Los Angeles. Moustakas hit the first of them in the 11th inning of the opener, Hosmer hit the second in the 11th inning the next night, and both of them went deep to finish off the sweep. Hosmer’s two-run shot came in the third inning. Moustakas connected in the fourth. By that point, the Angels — their high-priced offense having fizzled and pitching having failed them — were slumped over the railing of their dugout. They spent the final five innings bundled up against the October chill, periods of rain making their night miserable. But hardly putting a damper on Royals fans that have waited 29 years for these moments.
Poll: Four of top six teams lost positions Continued from Page B-1 title. The Bulldogs have their best ranking ever. Their previous best was No. 7 in 1981 and their only SEC championship came in 1941. Between them, the Rebels and Bulldogs have won the SEC West just twice since the league split into two divisions in 1992. “You’ve never arrived, but I think we’ve changed the culture,” Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen said Sunday. “And that was the goal coming in here, was we wanted to change the culture.” Baylor rounds out the top five and Notre Dame is No. 6. The USA Today coaches’ poll had Florida State, Auburn, Baylor, Ole Miss and Notre Dame in the top five. Mississippi
State was sixth. For the second time in the 78-year history of the AP poll, four of the top six teams lost and for the first time five of the top eight teams went down in a single regular-season week. The top-eight teams to lose and poll reaction: u Oregon dropped 10 spots after losing 31-24 at home to Arizona on Thursday night. The Wildcats went from unranked to No. 10, the biggest jump into the poll since the rankings went to 25 teams in 1989. The previous best was No. 13 Iowa on Sept. 27, 2009. u Alabama dropped four spots to No. 7. u Oklahoma dropped seven spots to No. 11 after losing to TCU. The Horned Frogs moved up 16 spots to No. 9. They
play at Baylor next week. u Texas A&M dropped eight spots to No. 14. u UCLA dropped 10 spots to No. 18 after losing 30-28 at home to Utah. The Utes moved into the rankings at No. 24. Arizona State moved back into the Top 25 at No. 20 after beating Southern California 38-34 on a Hail Mary. Unbeaten Georgia Tech moved into the rankings for the first time this season at No. 23. USC, LSU, BYU and Wisconsin all dropped out of the rankings after losses. LSU, which lost 41-7 to Auburn, had its streak of 87 straight poll appearances snapped. It was the second-longest active streak behind Alabama, which is up to 105 in a row.

Phelps: Experts say jail time is unlikely Continued from Page B-1 his schedule for the upcoming year, he will surely miss the first U.S. Grand Prix meet at Minneapolis, which begins Nov. 20. The remaining five Grand Prix meets are all in the first half of 2015 — important steps in the lead-up to next summer’s world championships in Russia. Phelps has already qualified for the worlds, the biggest meet on the swimming calendar outside of the Olympics. He was not planning to compete in the short course world championships, which will be held in
early December in Qatar. The U.S. team for that meet, which includes longtime Phelps rival Ryan Lochte, was announced last week. Chuck Wielgus, the executive director of USA Swimming, praised Phelps for entering a program. The governing body suspended him for three months in 2009 after a photo emerged showing Phelps using a marijuana pipe, even though he was not charged. USA Swimming has not taken any disciplinary action for his second DUI arrest. “We fully support Michael’s decision to place his health and
well-being as the number one priority,” Wielgus said. “His self-recognition and commitment to get help exhibit how serious he is to learn from this experience.” Phelps was also charged with excessive speed and crossing double lane lines in the Fort McHenry Tunnel on Interstate 95, according to the Maryland Transportation Authority Police. An officer reported that Phelps was clocked going 84 mph in a 45-mph zone. His trial is scheduled for Nov. 19. Phelps was previously charged with drunken driv-
ing as a 19-year-old, fresh off his second Olympic games in Greece, where he won six gold medals. He pleaded guilty to the charges, but as a young first-time offender he was able to avoid conviction. He was granted probation before judgment and sentenced to 18 months on probation and a fine. If convicted of the latest charges, Phelps faces up to a year in jail, a $1,000 fine and the loss of his driver’s license for six months. However, legal experts said it’s unlikely the swimmer would have to serve any jail time.

Fake punt helps 49ers beat Chiefs The Associated Press
SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Colin Kaepernick threw for 201 yards and a touchdown, Frank Gore ran for 107 yards and the 49ers 22 49ers converted a fake punt. Chiefs 17 The 49ers (3-2) turned to a trick play on fourth-and-1 from their 29 early in the fourth quarter, giving a direct snap to Craig Dahl for a 3-yard run up the middle. Kaepernick directed the offense downfield, and Phil Dawson kicked a 27-yard field goal with 8:42 to play for the go-ahead score. Dawson also connected from 55, 52, 35 and 30 yards. The 49ers held off former franchise quarterback Alex Smith and the Chiefs (2-3) twice in the closing moments. Smith threw for 175 yards and two touchdowns, but Perrish Cox intercepted his overthrown pass to end any chance Kansas City had to rally. BROWNS 29, TITANS 28 In Nashville, Tenn., Brian Hoyer threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to Travis Benjamin with 1:09 left, and the Browns rallied from a 25-point deficit in beating the Tennessee Titans for the biggest comeback in franchise history. The Browns (2-2) had never rallied from more than 20 points, and easily topped the comeback on Dec. 4, 1966, when Cleveland trailed the Giants 34-14 and won 49-40, according to STATS. It was the biggest road comeback in NFL history. They couldn’t have made it tougher on themselves as they fell behind 28-3 in the first half. They snapped a seven-game road skid scoring 26 unanswered points, including 16 in the fourth quarter. The Titans (1-4) had a massive collapse — their biggest since moving to Tennessee in 1997. Jake Locker didn’t return after hurting his right thumb in the second quarter, and backup Charlie Whitehurst couldn’t protect the big lead. SAINTS 37, BUCCANEERS 31 (OT) In New Orleans, Khiry Robinson’s tackle-breaking, 18-yard touchdown run in overtime lifted the Saints. Pierre Thomas caught eight passes out of the backfield for 77 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed for 35 yards and a score to help New Orleans (2-3) overcome Drew Brees’ three interceptions — and an 11-point deficit in the fourth quarter. Brees completed 35 of 57 passes for 371 yards and two touchdowns, but two of his interceptions led directly to Buccaneers touchdowns. His third ended a potential winning drive in the final minute of regulation. Making his second straight start for Tampa Bay (1-4), Mike Glennon was 19 for 32 for 249 yards and two touchdowns. He was intercepted
Thornton recovered a fumble for a score and nearly took another one the distance. But Austin Davis rallied the Rams (1-3) from a 34-7 deficit with three straight scores, including a 5-yard pass to Brian Quick that cut it to 34-28 with 4:41 left. The Rams had a chance to win when they got the ball at their 7 with 1:47 left. Davis threw a 43-yard pass to Quick on first down, but Philadelphia’s defense finally made a stop.

once and sacked by Junior Galette for a safety in the fourth quarter. CHARGERS 31, JETS 0 In San Diego, Philip Rivers threw two touchdown passes to Antonio Gates and rookie running back Branden Oliver’s big day included his first two NFL touchdowns. The Chargers (4-1) heaped more pain on the Jets (1-4), who lost their fourth straight game and turned to Michael Vick. Vick replaced Geno Smith on New York’s first possession of the second half, but wasn’t any more effective. Other than being sacked three times, Rivers had his way with the Jets. He was 20 of 28 for 288 yards and three touchdowns, with one interception. It was the first shutout in the NFL this season. PANTHERS 31, BEARS 24 In Charlotte, N.C., Cam Newton threw two touchdown passes to Greg Olsen and the Panthers’ defense forced four turnovers to overcome a 14-point deficit. With the game tied at 24, Carolina’s Antoine Cason stripped Matt Forte of the ball and the Kawaan Short recovered at Chicago’s 23. Six plays later, Newton found Olsen on a slant route for a 6-yard touchdown with 2:18 left. The Panthers sealed the win when Short sacked Jay Cutler and Charles Johnson recovered a fumble as the Panthers (3-2) snapped a two-game losing streak and reclaimed first place in the NFC South. Newton was 19 of 35 for 255 yards with two touchdown passes and one interception. Olsen had six catches for 72 yards.

Cowboys: RB Murray earns 136 rushing yards Continued from Page B-1 85 yards. “That’s something I always tell Tony. If the ball is in the air, I’m going to try my best to come down with it.” After the Texans scored twice in the last 2:27 of regulation, Bailey’s miss from 53 yards on the final play ended a franchise record streak of 30 straight made field goals. “We had to go down and basically win the game twice,” said Romo, who threw for 324 yards with two touchdowns with an interception that took away a scoring chance in the fourth quarter. “You just put your work hat on and go out and execute.” The Cowboys (4-1) won their fourth straight for the first time since 2011 heading into a trip to Super Bowl champion Seattle, their only road game in a stretch of six games. The Texans (3-2) rallied behind Arian Foster, who had 157 yards rushing and a tying 1-yard score with 41 seconds left in regulation. “Football is a brutal game,” Watt said. “It’s brutal on your body. It’s brutal on your emotions. To fight back the way we did, to show that resilience, it was good to see. But at the end of the day, we lost the game.” NFL rushing leader DeMarco Murray had 136 yards for Dallas, his fifth straight 100-yard game to start the season. After the Cowboys stopped the Texans on the first possession of overtime, they were facing third-and-8. Romo unloaded off his back foot to avoid a sack. Bryant reached over Johnathan Joseph on a 37-yard gain to the Houston 31. Bailey’s kick came three plays later. “Dez, I’ve seen him make it a million times,” said Jason Witten, who became the third tight end in NFL history with 10,000 career yards receiving. “I don’t know that there’s two
better people at clutch moments than Tony and him.” The Texans pulled even by converting a fourth down on a drive to Randy Bullock’s 29-yard field, then got the ball back in just 32 seconds. They went 45 yards in four plays to Foster’s second touchdown with 41 seconds left. Houston had just 86 yards total offense at halftime, but Foster had 117 rushing himself in the second half. He went 48 yards on consecutive plays, the latter from 15 to put Houston ahead 7-3 in the third quarter. Romo answered four plays later on probably the best test so far of his back after surgery last December to repair a herniated disk. He spun to his right as Watt closed in, then threw about as far as he could with more pressure coming. Terrance Williams had an easy 43-yard catch in the end zone when Houston’s Kendrick Lewis fell at the goal line just before the ball arrived. “Certainly it’s one for the ages with Romo,” coach Jason Garrett said. “There’s a handful of those he’s had throughout his career, and I think you can add that one to the list.” Witten helped set up Williams’ score with a 34-yard catch to join Tony Gonzalez and Shannon Sharpe as the only tight ends with 10,000 career yards receiving. He finished with 59 yards to put him at 10,014. Murray, who had his fourth fumble in five games in the first quarter, was denied a chance to join Jim Brown and O.J. Simpson as the only running backs with at least 100 yards and one touchdown in the first five games of the season. It looked like he would get the TD, but Romo instead threw a 2-yard scoring pass to Bryant for a 17-7 lead in the fourth quarter.
Bills starter, set up the decisive kick by completing a 20-yard pass over the middle to Sammy Watkins as Buffalo (3-2) overcame a 14-0 deficit. It was the eighth game Orton has won in overtime or when trailing in the fourth quarter. Orton went 30 of 43 for 308 yards with a 2-yard touchdown pass to Chris Gragg. The Lions (3-2) were undone by kicker Alex Henery missing all three field-goal attempts, including a 50-yarder wide left with 21 seconds left. Receiver Calvin Johnson and running back Reggie Bush both injured ankles in the loss. COLTS 20, RAVENS 13 In Indianapolis, Andrew Luck threw one touchdown pass and ran for another score and the defense held on late. Luck was 32 of 49 for 312 yards with two interceptions, but scored the decisive points on a nifty 13-yard run with 8:56 left. Indianapolis (3-2) has won three straight. Baltimore (3-2) lost for the first time since Week 1. It was a strange day. The teams combined for seven turnovers, and Joe Flacco was sacked four times — one more than he had been all season. But Luck’s 6-yard pass to Dwayne Allen early in the third quarter made it 13-3, then his fourth-quarter scoring run was enough after the defense stopped Baltimore’s last chance in the final minute. EAGLES 34, RAMS 28 In Philadelphia, Nick Foles threw two touchdown passes, while the defense and special teams each scored. The Eagles (4-1) rebounded from a tough loss at San Francisco with a strong all-around performance until the end. Chris Maragos returned a blocked punt for a touchdown, Cedric
GIANTS 30, FALCONS 20 In East Rutherford, N.J., first-round draft pick Odell Beckham Jr. made his NFL debut a memorable one, catching a go-ahead 15-yard touchdown pass from Eli Manning with 10:02 left. Fellow rookie Andre Williams scored on a 3-yard run to ignite the second-half rally that saw the Giants (3-2) come from 10 points down to win their third straight game. Manning threw for two touchdowns and Josh Brown added two late field goals. Ryan threw for 316 yards and a touchdown playing behind a bangedup offensive line that held up until the very end. Atlanta (2-3) dropped its second straight. STEELERS 17, JAGUARS 9 In Jacksonville, Fla., Brice McCain returned an interception 22 yards for a touchdown, helping the Steelers overcome a mediocre offensive performance. McCain stepped in front of receiver Allen Hurns early in the fourth quarter, intercepted rookie Blake Bortles’ wobbly sideline pass and went untouched the other way. It was just what the Steelers (3-2) needed to gain a little breathing room in a game much tighter than they probably expected. The Jaguars (0-5) didn’t want a moral victory, but surely they will try to build on a close loss after dropping their past five games by double digits. Bortles, making his first start at home, completed 22 of 36 passes for 191 yards. He was hampered by several dropped passes — three by Hurns — and a handful of untimely penalties. PATRIOTS 43, BENGALS 17 In Foxborough, Mass., Tom Brady rebounded from the second worst loss of his career by throwing for two touchdowns and becoming the sixth quarterback to pass for 50,000 yards as the New England Patriots routed the NFL’s last unbeaten team with a 43-17 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday night. Six days after a 41-14 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, the Patriots’ offense broke out of its season-long slump. Brady threw for 292 yards and Stevan Ridley gained 117 of the team’s 221 yards rushing against a team that had allowed an NFL-low 11 points per game.
Broncos: Offense output is franchise best Continued from Page B-1 Demaryius Thomas caught touchdown passes of 31 and 86 yards, and his 77-yard TD was nullified on a chop block by Julius Thomas that sent defensive end Calais Campbell from the game with a right knee injury. Left tackle Ryan Clady was engaged with Campbell and was whistled for the flag. But it was the Pro Bowl tight end who crashed low into Campbell and drew the wrath of Arizona coach Bruce Arians. “I’ve been coaching for 37 years, it’s the dirtiest play I’ve seen,” Arians fumed. “It was a flat chop block and put him out of the game. I know John Fox, great coach and great guy. Somebody has got to answer to that. A fine isn’t going to do it, when he’s going to miss three or four weeks, on a blatant chop block.” Campbell’s strained MCL added to a miserable afternoon in which the Cardinals (3-1) surrendered 568 yards, the most they’ve allowed since 1973, and saw fill-in quarterback Drew Stanton leave with a concussion. The Broncos’ offensive output was their best in franchise history. They had 567 yards against Atlanta in 2004. Manning’s 500th TD throw came in his 244th career regular season game, 49 fewer games than it took Favre. It came against two of his mentors: Arians, who was his first QB coach in 1998, and Cardinals assistant head coach Tom Moore, who was his offensive coordinator during his 13 seasons in Indy. “I give both of those men a lot of credit for helping me improve as a quarterback,” Manning said.
Footballs from Manning’s milestone TDs usually end up in his receiver’s trophy cases, but he kept this one. “I’ll probably keep it in a bag somewhere,” said Manning, adding that he’s sure his 3-year-old boy will get to it soon and play with it in the mud. Among Manning’s two interceptions was one by Campbell, the 300-pound defensive end who snatched his screen pass to a wide-open Montee Ball and rumbled to the 5 before Manning tripped him up. “Don’t give me a full tackle for that,” Manning said. “Give me like a half. I barely grazed his leg.” Ellington took it in from there to pull Arizona to 14-13. Manning saw cornerback Antonio Cromartie lined up 1 on 1 on Demaryius Thomas and hit his big receiver in stride at the 40. Cromartie crumpled to the grass and Thomas sped into the end zone with an 86-yard score that gave Denver a 21-13 halftime lead. Although only six of the 14 passes Manning threw at Cromartie were completed, those half dozen grabs covered 199 yards. “It’s by far the worst game of my career,” Cromartie said. “But it’s one game out of the season. We’ve got 12 more games.” Stanton was 11 for 26 for 118 yards before being knocked from the game on a hard hit by Von Miller in the third quarter. On his third series, Logan Thomas threaded a pass through linebacker Nate Irving’s grasp and into the arms of running back Andre Ellington for a stunning 81-yard score that made it 24-20. That ended up being Thomas’ only completion in eight attempts.

U.S. women rout Spain for second straight gold medal By Doug Feinberg The Associated Press
ISTANBUL — Sue Bird added another gold medal to her already incredible U.S. basketball resume. Bird became the most-decorated player in world championship history when the Americans won a second straight gold with a 77-64 victory over Spain on Sunday night. Bird has won three gold medals and a bronze. “It was a great win for us,” Bird said. “We had one goal the entire time this team’s been together and that’s win a gold medal. A lot of people see a lot of talent and think it’s going to be easy and it’s not. Whenever you can win a gold medal and it’s a tough journey, everyone’s happy. I’m definitely proud of this team.” While Bird was quick to deflect what winning a fourth medal meant to her, coach Geno Auriemma was quick to heap praise on his point guard. “She’s very indicative of what USA Basketball is. She’s loyal, a great leader, everyone respects her,” Auriemma said. “She’s been the youngest player on the team and now’s the oldest player on the team. She’s seen it all and done it all. I think when you talk about USA Basketball in the future on the women’s side. There have been a lot of great names and her name will be mentioned very early in the names of players who play for USA.” Maya Moore scored 18 points and earned MVP honors for the tournament. Lindsay Whalen added 12 points for the United States (6-0), which hasn’t lost in a gold medal game in the world championship since 1983, when it was beaten by the Soviet Union 84-82. Except for a hiccup in 2006 when the Americans lost to Russia in the semifinals, they have won every Olympic and world championship game since 1996. If not for that upset in Brazil, the U.S. would have five straight world titles. “I know when I hear 2006, it still makes me mad.,” Bird said of her only bronze medal. The Americans quickly turned it into a laugher, jumping out to a 13-point lead in the first 4¼ minutes. Spain (5-1) could only get within seven the rest of the way. Moore was the key in that early burst, scoring 11 points during the opening 18-5 run. Her 3-pointers barely moved the net as the Americans blitzed Spain, which was making its first appearance in the championship game. “It’s always a focus, we want to punch first,” Moore said. “I put pressure on myself and the starting five, we put pressure on ourselves to get a good start, set the tone for the game.” Behind strong offensive rebounding, the Spaniards rallied to within 24-17, but then Whalen took over. She had nine points during a 13-0 run by the Americans spanning the end of the first and start of the second quarter to make it a 20-point game. Whalen ended the first quarter with a spectacular drive that ended with a floater in the lane right before the buzzer. During the burst, Diana Taurasi threw a pinpoint pass to a streaking Seimone Augustus for another lay-in and the U.S. was off and running. In other games Sunday, Australia routed Turkey 74-44 to win the bronze medal. Canada topped China 61-53 to finish fifth and France beat Serbia 88-74 for seventh place.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
50-year-old man wants relationship Dear Annie: I’m a 50-year-old male, not particularly tall, with a stocky (not fat) build and blond hair. I’m still a virgin. I have dated several women over the years, but nothing intimate ever came of it. I have a good job and am well heeled. I’m not super-handsome, but I’m not unattractive, either. My personality isn’t too bad, but somehow, I don’t come across positively to women. I am looking for a woman of good character who is easy to get along with. Most of the women I’ve met want only a good time, for me to spend money on them and perhaps a roll in the hay. That’s not what I am searching for in the woman I want to marry. Am I too inflexible? — Lonely in Pennsylvania Dear Lonely: Your standards are fine, but because you have waited so long to find someone, your odds of doing so are decreasing. Society isn’t particularly kind to middle-aged virgins, believing something must be wrong with them. We assume you aren’t having trouble meeting women, only marriageable ones. You might have better luck through a church where there are activities organized around singles. Also, if you haven’t already done so, please expand your search to include women your own age who may be in the same position and could be more welcoming. Dear Annie: My high blood pressure is really up there. I tried in vain to speak to someone on the phone regarding a car issue. All I got was a recording saying “press this” or “press that,” none of which got me anywhere. I had a simple question. I wasn’t looking to put together an automobile. I was on the phone for nearly half an hour. The only thing I accomplished was getting my blood pressure up. I wanted to speak to another human being, not a recording. What in the world are we coming to? — Blood Pressure Rising in Binghamton, N.Y. Dear Blood Pressure: Automated responses are cheaper than hiring people to answer the phone, and in many instances, you can get the information you need this way. But not everything. So, we understand your frustration.
Here’s a little trick for you: When you need to speak to an operator, press “0,” regardless of your choices. In most cases, you will be connected to a real human being. Dear Annie: My blood boiled when I read your response to “Jay,” who complained about the length of weddings. He sounds like one of those guests who makes it all about him and not the couple celebrating the most important day of their lives. You told him it was an option to leave before dinner was served. That is unbelievably rude! You do know, I would hope, that the hosts still have to pay for the meal. In the case of our daughter, that amounted to $60 per person. How would you feel if you invited a guest for dinner at a restaurant and he left after ordering his food and you still had pay for it? Are you kidding me? If a person doesn’t like the length of weddings, the invitation should be declined. Another option would be to let the hosts know that you will attend only the ceremony. That shouldn’t take too long and is, after all, the most important part. My amazing 95-year-old mother-in-law was on the dance floor until the last song was played. I just love her attitude. — Exasperated Mother of the Bride Dear Exasperated: Are you going to lock the doors and tie your guests to their chairs to make sure they stay? People RSVP with every intention of eating dinner. We’ve seen guests descend like locusts on the dessert. But if the reception is appallingly delayed because the bridal party went out for drinks first or decided to spend three hours taking photographs, guests are entitled to go home when they can’t wait any longer. (But we, too, like your mother-in-law’s attitude. Go Mom!) Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Today in history Today is Monday, Oct. 6, the 279th day of 2014. There are 86 days left in the year. Today’s highlight in history: On Oct. 6, 1939, in a speech to the Reichstag, German Chancellor Adolf Hitler spoke of his plans to reorder the ethnic layout of Europe — a plan which would entail settling the “Jewish problem.”
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You could be more in touch with an emotional matter involving a friend and/or a goal. Tonight: Visit with a loved one.
Cryptoquip
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH You might want to handle a personal matter in a different way. Use caution with your feelings. Be willing to support yourself. Tonight: Pay the bills. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You’ll smile, but somehow you could irritate a key person in your life. This person might be a bit jealous. Tonight: Whatever makes you happy. Jacqueline Bigar
The Cryptoquip is a substitution cipher in which one letter stands for another. If you think that X equals O, it will equal O throughout the puzzle.
