ast July, a group of scientists from eight research groups around the country began holding weekly meetings to develop a mathematical understanding of the Ebola virus outbreak in West Africa.

This league of mathematicians, computer scientists, epidemiologists and biologists was unusual not only because of its members’ diverse scientific backgrounds, but also because it included five researchers from the Santa Fe InstiSamuel V. tute.

Scarpino These institute Science in a scientists provide Complex World an important perspective on disease transmission — specifically, emphasizing the need to piece together how the various factors affecting disease transmission interact to cause a large outbreak.

This approach, which we call complex systems science, already has improved our understanding of the spread of infectious diseases, from SARS to the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic. I was humbled to be asked to join the discussions and eager to be able to offer a complex systems perspective to what was quickly becoming a global emergency.

At SFI, my colleagues and I are constructing mathematical models of Ebola transmission, incorporating many interacting factors that might be contributing to the outbreak. These models help inform the intervention decisions being made every day by public health officials.

The first step in this process was to develop computer models of Ebola’s spread to look at its potential reach in West Africa and across the world.

These models required us, as complexity scientists, to piece together

like adults,’ but they don’t teach us how to be adults. She does. And she treats us like adults.”

New Mexico’s Public Education Department named Minyard Teacher of the Year for 2015. She found out on a Saturday in late October when she got a vague email from an administrative assistant saying she was now eligible to become National Teacher of the Year. She put two and two together and then called her principal and superintendent to confirm the news.

Principal Kathy McClendon nominated Minyard based on criteria for the award, which includes being a highly effective teacher,

Lawmakers looking to boost economic development in New Mexico are pushing for more money for a program that funds land, equipment and construction for new and expanding businesses.

The Jobs Council, a consortium of business leaders, economists and lawmakers who have been meeting for the past 18 months, is lobbying for $50 million from the Legislature under the state Local Economic Development Act, or LEADA, to serve as a “closing fund” to pay for roads, sewers, water lines, buildings and other incentives for business expansion.

The new money for LEADA is the top priority that will move through the Legislature in January from the Jobs Council as well as the state Economic Development Department.

Other recommendations include more recruitment money to sell the advantages of New Mexico, an increase in job-training funds, money for a pilot project in forest restoration, as well as initiatives to help solo or independent contractors. The group is also seeking $4.5 million to provide economic development grants to smaller communities.

‘She treats you the way you want to be treated’

By Robert Nott The New Mexican

I

t’s just past noon on a Wednesday in the music class of Pojoaque Valley High School teacher Debra Minyard — and cacophony reigns.

About 40 kids are coming into the room, picking up their instruments and starting to experiment with them as they move chairs into place for band practice.

“They sound better once they get started,” Minyard says.

Soon she has them seated and working on breathing exercises.

“You’re cheating!” she tells one girl who is holding back on exhaling.

As the students create a collective sound similar to the noise a tractor-

trailer tire might make while slowly losing air, Minyard keeps time by snapping her fingers.

And then it’s time to focus and play a rendition of the gentle, soothing “Korean Folk Rhapsody.”

Minyard commands her students’ attention as she conducts in theatrical fashion, shouting out specific instructions to students who are too loud, too fast, not loud enough or not fast enough.

“Hunter, you’re perfectly in time and way too strong in approach,” she tells one percussionist.

As far as her students are concerned, Minyard is always in time and never too strong in approach.

“She treats you the way you want to be treated,” said junior Teresa Solano. “Teachers always say, ‘act

BEIRUT — Teenagers carrying weapons stand at checkpoints and busy intersections in Iraq’s second-largest city, Mosul. Patched onto the left arms of their black uniforms are the logos of the Islamic Police.

In Raqqa, the Islamic State group’s de facto capital in Syria, boys attend training camp and religious courses before heading off to fight. Others serve as cooks or guards at the extremists’ headquarters or as spies, informing on people in their neighborhoods.

Across the vast region under Islamic State’s control, the group is actively conscripting children for battle and committing abuses against the most vulnerable at a young age, according to a growing body of evidence assembled from residents, activists, independent experts and human rights groups.

In the northern Syrian town of Kobani, where ethnic Kurds have been resisting an ISIS onslaught for weeks, several activists told The

Glacier Park’s identity melting

By Michael Wines The New York Times

GLACIER NATIONAL PARK, Mont. — What will they call this place once the glaciers are gone?

A century ago, this sweep of mountains on the Canadian border boasted some 150 ice sheets, many of them scores of feet thick, plastered across summits and tucked into rocky fissures high above parabolic valleys. Today, perhaps 25 survive.

In 30 years, there may be none.

A warming climate is melting Glacier’s glaciers, an icy retreat that promises to change not just tourists’ vistas, but also the mountains and everything around them.

Streams fed by snowmelt are reaching peak spring flows weeks earlier than in the past, and low summer flows weeks before they used to. Some farmers who depend on irrigation in the parched days of late summer are no longer sure that enough water will be there. Bull trout, once pan-fried over anglers’ campfires,

NATION&WORLD In brief Nigeria: Dozens dead in attack MAIDUGURI, Nigeria — An attack by Islamic extremists killed dozens in the northeastern Nigerian village of Doron Baga, a major fishing center on the shores of Lake Chad, witnesses said.

Fisherman Usman Abubakar told the Associated Press that suspected Boko Haram members drove into Doron Baga, in Borno state, “shooting people on sight.”

“I counted 60 bodies with my own eyes,” Abubakar said.

Nigerian security official Gideon Jubrin, spokesman for the Borno state police, told AP he has not received any official confirmation of the attack.

Blast kills 40 in Afghanistan KABUL, Afghanistan — As many as 40 people were killed Sunday after a suicide bomber detonated explosives in a crowd gathered for a volleyball match in a village in eastern Afghanistan, a spokesman for the provincial governor said.

Up to 60 people were wounded in the blast, which occurred in the Yahya Khel district of Paktika province, said the spokesman, Mokhlis Afghan. The province’s deputy governor, Attaullah Fazli, put the number of dead at 50.

Israeli Cabinet defines country JERUSALEM — In a move likely to further inflame tensions with Israel’s Arab citizens, the Israeli Cabinet on Sunday approved a bill to legally define the country as the nation-state of the Jewish people.

The decision, which set off a stormy debate that could bring down Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s brittle coalition government, followed weeks of deadly Arab-Jewish violence and was denounced by critics as damaging to the country’s democratic character and poorly timed at such a combustible moment.

It now heads toward a full parliamentary vote on Wednesday.

U.S. might extend talks with Iran VIENNA — The United States on Sunday proposed extending an interim agreement with Iran in a recognition that talks to settle deep differences over Tehran’s nuclear program were unlikely to succeed before a deadline just one day away.

Secretary of State John Kerry formally raised the issue of an extension in an evening meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, according to an official.

Ferguson grand jurors take time to deliberate Anxiety grows in city as decision in Aug. shooting case drags on

By David A. Lieb and Andale Gross The Associated Press

FERGUSON, Mo. espite preparations for a weekend decision in the Ferguson shooting case, the grand jurors apparently need more time to deliberate, and the uncertainty just seemed to feed the anxiety and speculation Sunday in a city already on edge.

More than 3½ months have passed since police Officer Darren Wilson, who is white, killed unarmed black 18-year-old Michael Brown after a confrontation in the middle of a street in the St. Louis suburb. The shooting triggered riots and looting, and police responded with armored vehicles and tear gas.

Many in the area thought a grand jury decision on whether to charge Wilson with a crime would be announced Sunday, based partly on a steppedup police presence in the preceding days, including the setting up of barricades around the building where the panel was meeting.

The grand jurors met Friday but apparently didn’t reach a decision, and they were widely expected to reconvene on Monday, though there was no official confirmation of that.

During church services Sunday, some pastors encouraged their flocks not to fret.

A choir sang, “We need you Lord right now” at the predominantly black Greater Grace Church in Ferguson. The pastor, Bishop L.O. Jones, referred to the pending grand jury decision briefly.

“Everybody stand to your feet and tell somebody, ‘Don’t be afraid. God is still in control,’ ” Jones said as church members repeated after him.

The Rev. Freddy Clark of Shalom Church in nearby Florissant told the mostly black interdenominational congregation that “justice will be served” whichever way the decision goes, because God will take care of it.

“None of us are pleased about what happened,” said parishioner James Tatum. “Whatever the verdict is, we have to understand that’s the verdict.”

As they wait, some people have continued daily protests, while speculation has grown that

the delays are intentional.

“People feel like it’s been engineered, so that the results wouldn’t come out until after the election and until the weather got cold, and it would be more difficult to protest,” said Susan McGraugh, supervisor of the Criminal Defense Clinic at the Saint Louis University School of Law. “It’s really adding fuel to the fire.”

Wilson has remained out of public view since the shooting, though CNN reported Sunday that he has met with network anchors to discuss possible interviews. Don Lemon and Anderson Cooper, both of CNN, each said on Twitter that they had met with Wilson.

St. Louis County Prosecutor Bob McCulloch had said he expected a grand jury decision by mid-to-late November. But that’s not ultimately in his control.

The 12-person grand jury deliberates in secret, without McCulloch, and sets its own schedule depending upon when the members are available.

It’s not uncommon for deliberations to take a while in complex cases when, such as in the Brown shooting, self-defense is alleged or there are two widely conflicting versions of events, said Cole County Prosecutor Mark Richardson, who is not involved in the Ferguson case.

Downtown STL Inc., a St. Louis civic group that promotes downtown businesses, told members in an email Saturday that the grand jury will reconvene Monday to continue deliberating.

The email did not explain how the group knew that, and McCulloch’s office has not commented on the grand jury’s schedule.

If jurors meet Monday, there is no guarantee they will reach a decision that day, or even this week.

“In the course of their deliberations, if one grand juror convinces the others that ‘Look, we need to hear from an additional witness,’ and they all agree, the prosecutor’s got a duty to bring that witness in,” Richardson said.

When the panel reaches a decision, it will be up to McCulloch to publicize it.

Sunday would have been an opportune time to minimize disruptions from protests, since schools and governments are planning on only a partial work week because of Thanksgiving, said Peter Joy, a law professor at Washington University in St. Louis. He said Monday or Tuesday would still make sense.

WASHINGTON — About a week after Tara Elonis convinced a judge to issue a protective order against her estranged husband, Anthony, her soon-to-be ex had this to say: “Fold up your PFA [protection-from-abuse order] and put it in your pocket. Is it thick enough to stop a bullet?”

Anthony Elonis didn’t deliver the message in person, by phone or in a note. Instead, he posted it on his Facebook page, for all to see, in a prose style reminiscent of the violent, misogynistic lyrics of rap artists he admired.

In its first examination of the limits of free speech on social media, the Supreme Court will consider next week whether, as a jury concluded, Elonis’ postings constituted a “true threat” to his wife and others.

The issue is whether Elonis should have been prosecuted for what he says was simply blowing off steam — “therapeutic efforts to address traumatic events,” as his brief to the court says — because what matters is not his intent but whether any reasonable person targeted in the rants would regard them as menacing warnings.

Parties on both sides of the groundbreaking case are asking the court to consider the unique qualities of social media. In this rapidly evolving realm of communication, only the occasional emoticon may signal whether a writer is engaging in satire or black humor, exercising poetic license, or delivering the kind of grim warnings that have presaged school shootings and other acts of mass violence.

Elonis, who has already served prison time for his Facebook posts, and some of his supporters say the court must look beyond incendiary content to discern the writer’s intent.

“Internet users may give vent to emotions on which they have no intention of acting, memorializing expressions of momentary anger or exasperation that once were communicated face-to-face among friends and dissipated harmlessly,” said a brief filed on Elonis’ behalf by the Student Press Law Center, the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the writers organization PEN. Domestic violence experts, on the other hand, say social media has become a powerful tool for dispensing threats.

Victims of domestic abuse, according to a brief filed by the National Network to End Domestic Violence, “have experienced real-life terror caused by increasingly graphic and public posts to Facebook and other social media sites — terror that is exacerbated precisely because abusers now harness the power of technology, ‘enabling them to reach their victims’ everyday lives at the click of a mouse or the touch of a screen.’ “ The case carries wide First Amendment implications for free-speech rights and artistic expression.

Briefs laden with the f-word and vulgar references to the female anatomy attempt to provide a crash course on Eminem and Wu-Tang Clan for the justices, whose tastes lean more toward Wagner and Puccini, and illuminate what some scholars say are the misunderstood storytelling attributes of rap.

It is a thoroughly modern case for justices who even eschew email communications with one another but are increasingly called upon to decide issues centered on evolving technology.

Last term alone, they decided cases involving cellphone privacy, software patents and cloud-based Internet streaming video.

Solicitor General Donald Verrilli Jr., representing the government, offered a basic primer on social media in his brief to the court. “Facebook ‘friends,’ ” he explained, “generally will have access to each other’s posts and will also see each other’s new content as part of a live newsfeed.”

BUFFALO, N.Y. — First came the big storm, then the big dig.

Now comes the big melt.

Residents of flood-prone areas around Buffalo should move valuables up from the basement, pack a bag and prepare for the possibility of evacuation as up to 7 feet of melting snow posed the threat of flooding, Gov. Andrew Cuomo warned Sunday.

“Err on the side of caution,” Cuomo said at a news conference in Cheektowaga. “You prepare for the worst and hope for the best, and that’s what we’re doing.”

Across the Buffalo region — where rising temperatures were expected to approach 60 degrees on Monday — people took that advice to heart.

bought a portable generator to make sure his sump pump will keep working once the roughly 80 inches of snow that fell on his property melts. Possessions are up on blocks in the basement and he has food for several days.

Rain fell Sunday, with temperatures rising to 50. It was expected to be even warmer Monday, accompanied by more rain and rising winds, leading to the threat of toppled trees and outages.

The National Weather Service said core samples of the deep snowpack showed it contained as much as 6 inches of water.

Forecasters said some stretches of road in urban areas might become submerged under several feet of water if storm drains remained clogged.

The melt could first cause basements to fill up and roads to flood, but another concern was creeks overflowing.

Dozens rescued after earthquake in central Japan

By Martin Fackler The New York Times

TOKYO — Police officers and firefighters rescued almost two dozen people, including a 2-yearold, from beneath their collapsed houses Sunday, a day after a powerful earthquake shook mountainous central Japan. At least 40 people were injured, but no deaths were reported.

The police said hundreds of people were forced to find shelter in school gyms and other evacuation centers after the magnitude-6.7 quake struck near the city of Nagano on Saturday night. The police said at least 34 homes collapsed near the ski resort town of Hakuba, where some of the worst dam-

age was concentrated.

Many more buildings were damaged, and the police warned of additional landslides caused by aftershocks. When it struck Saturday, the earthquake caused landslides that cut off roads and isolated residents, according to Japan’s Kyodo News Agency.

The police said rescuers in and near Hakuba had found 21 people trapped in their collapsed homes, including the toddler, who was uninjured.

Television footage showed police officers going door to door to make sure everyone was accounted for.

In other areas where there was less damage to buildings, the police said the most serious inju-

“Marion was born a sharecropper’s son, came of age during the Civil Rights movement, and became a fixture in D.C. politics for decades,” President Barack Obama said.

“During his decades in elected office in D.C., he put in place historic programs to lift working people out of poverty, expand opportunity and begin to make real the promise of home rule.”

Barry was born March 6, 1936, to Marion and Mattie Barry, in the Mississippi Delta and was raised in Memphis, Tenn., after the death of his father, a sharecropper.

Barry’s work in the civil rights movement brought him to Washington. He was elected to the city council in 1974. Four years later, Barry defeated incumbent Mayor Walter Washington in the Democratic primary and went on to easily win the general election.

in the room,” she said. Her introduction to music came in the form of a trombone put into

her hands when she was in the fourth grade. It didn’t fit her personality, she said: “A trom-

bone is in your face. A flute is quiet and gentle.” So she played the flute instead. She still does.

Following college, she taught for five years in a Maine school and then gave it up because she felt she was a bad teacher. She asked God to send her a sign as to what to do — “and make it big!”

Almost immediately, three friends told her to go to Santa Fe. She posted her résumé online and got a call to interview for the Pojoaque district.

She got the job and flew out to New Mexico, landing at the airport in Albuquerque in August 2003.

As she descended the elevator there, she saw and heard a mariachi band playing below.

That was the big sign, she said.

She loves teaching again, and she loves the people, food, geography and students of the Pojoaque Valley. People welcomed her and wanted to hear

her story, she said. “Being an outsider, it would have been easy to be disregarded, but that didn’t happen at all,” Minyard said.

The best thing about teaching is that moment when the kids “get it,” she said. “It’s a gift they just acquired and you helped facilitate that.”

The worst thing is the loss of a student.

“Suicide, kids injuring themselves, there was an accident and someone’s gone — no amount of school prep trains you for that day,” Minyard said.

Her husband, Joshua, works for Los Alamos National Laboratory. They have a cat called Chaco and they like to hike and kayak.

Minyard said she hopes the Teacher of the Year honor allows her to express the importance of music education, which is about creating life skills, fostering collaboration and bal-

ancing right brain and left brain skills.

“I think sometimes people confuse this award title with ‘best teacher of the year,’ and that’s just not true. There’s a lot of ‘best’ teachers in this state,” she said.

According to the Public Education Department website, the New Mexico Teacher of the Year Program began in 1963.

Each year, all 89 state public school districts and the nearly 100 state charter schools are invited to nominate an outstanding teacher for the honor.

This teacher represents New Mexico in the National Teacher of the Year competition. Minyard and the other teachers will fly to Washington, D.C., early next year and the National Teacher of the Year will be chosen by April.

Barela said, adding the state has been in contact with employers who might bring 7,500 to 8,000 jobs in the next several months.

He added that every single job recruited to New Mexico has been tied to LEADA funding — so it is imperative to keep that initiative well financed with money from the Legislature.

Incentives for the private sector are not without controversy in that public funds are used for improvements to buildings and infrastructure, but the negotiations to spend that money are often held behind closed doors.

Lawmakers raised concerns over and over again about “clawbacks” or a return of money if businesses go belly up or do not produce the promised jobs.

“If a company moves away, we get to keep the infrastructure,” Maestas told them. “If the jobs don’t come, we get our money back.”

But lawmakers said that is a small consolation when the infrastructure or facilities are so specialized they cannot be used for anything else. A prime example raised by state Sen. George Muñoz, D-Gallup, is

EL NUEVO MEXICANO Dentro del crisol de razas CHICAGO ara aquellos de ustedes que no siguen los cambios en la población hispana de Estados Unidos, les ruego, que la examinen más atentamente.

Durante la mayor parte de la década pasada, la imagen de los hispanos en Estados Unidos coincidió con estereotipos trillados: empobrecidos, y con poca educación y habilidades aparte de cosechar fruta y carnear animales. Además de una apatía para aprender inglés y una amargura hacia un país que no desea concederles una amnistía.

Está de más decir que esta caricatura no refleja ni siquiera a un pequeño sector de la diversa y arraigada población Esther hispana del país. Y no es difícil Cepeda encontrar datos para demComentario ostrar esta afirmación.

El problema es que cuando organizaciones — de incidencia y de ambos partidos — publican conclusiones que rechazan la opinión de que todos los hispanos son inmigrantes ilegales de México que exigen amnistía de funcionarios electos por quienes no pueden votar, los medios responden con un bostezo colectivo. Hagamos un experimento.

Levanten la mano si oyeron hablar de la reciente encuesta nacional de 1,000 adultos hispanos, realizada por la W.K. Kellogg Foundation y titulada “State of the Latino Family.”

Aunque no recibió publicidad, la encuesta reafirma un creciente corpus de investigaciones que muestran que, independientemente de las imágenes de airados manifestantes que uno pueda ver en TV, la mayoría de los hispanos se siente optimista sobre su propio futuro y el de Estados Unidos.

He aquí otros datos que destruyen mitos: u Aproximadamente la mitad de los encuestados nació en Estados Unidos. u El 80 por ciento de los nacidos en el exterior reside en Estados Unidos legalmente. u El 58 por ciento de todos los encuestados habla inglés como lengua madre, mientras que el 42 por ciento prefiere el español. u El 64 por ciento se graduó de una escuela secundaria y/o cuenta con un diploma postsecundario. u El 29 por ciento reportó ingresos de más de 40.000 dólares por año.

Sus opiniones son también muy diferentes de las de los estereotipos: u El 39 por ciento de los encuestados piensa que el país está yendo en la dirección correcta. u El 73 por ciento se siente optimista sobre el futuro de sus finanzas y sus oportunidades económicas en los Estados Unidos. u En los temas de la asistencia médica, igualdad de oportunidades y educación, más hispanos piensan que las cosas están mejor ahora de lo que estaban hace cinco años.

Y la conclusión que fue mi preferida: Los puestos de trabajo y la economía son asuntos mucho más importantes para los hispanos encuestados que la inmigración/deportaciones, la violencia/criminalidad o las relaciones raciales/discriminación.

En el curso de los últimos 10 años, he señalado repetidamente conclusiones de este tipo, desde que el Pew Research Center, que no apoya a ningún partido, comenzó a preguntar a los latinos cuál era el asunto que más les interesaba, la inmigración nunca lo ha sido.

La encuesta de Pew de 2004 sobre las opiniones políticas y cívicas de los hispanos halló que, en una muestra representativa de 2,288 adultos latinos de 18 y más años, el 54 por ciento expresó que la educación era el asunto más importante, y la economía y los puestos de trabajo ocuparon el segundo lugar.

El siguiente tema fue la asistencia médica, a la que le siguieron el terrorismo y la guerra de Irak para completar las cinco primeras posiciones.

En último lugar se hallaba la inmigración.

Vale la pena recordar eso mientras digerimos el furor por el plan del presidente Obama para proteger una porción importante de la población de inmigrantes ilegales de la deportación.

Habrá una histeria migratoria de los de la izquierda, que no creen que las medidas vayan suficientemente lejos y de los de la derecha, a quienes preocupará que el español se convierta en el idioma nacional de facto.

No importan las reacciones negativas ni el alboroto. Los hispanos están tan preocupados, en este momento de la historia, como los no-hispanos por la manera en que los flujos migratorios impactan la economía, nuestra cultura nacional y otras áreas.

La mayoría de los hispanos enfrentará las próximas semanas de reacción ante la medida unilateral del presidente como todos los demás: con falta de fe sobre el funcionamiento del gobierno y deseando que el pseudo-drama de la elección presidencial de 2016 ya haya pasado, para que podamos dejar de hablar del tema.

En otras palabras, la mayoría de los hispanos proseguirá con su vida como la mayoría de los nohispanos. Nos preocuparemos, refunfuñaremos y hasta encontraremos hechos esperanzadores en que concentrarnos, mientras proseguimos con nuestra vida cotidiana.

Y en todo ese tiempo, los que quieren dividir a los negros de los marrones y de los blancos encontrarán menos oportunidades de hacerlo, a medida que la población hispana sigue haciendo la misma cosa que ha hecho cada generación recién venida después de entrar en el crisol de razas: convertirse más en “nosotros” que en “ellos.”

Cinthya Chávez y su hija, Camila Chávez, 4, de Española escucha la transmisión en vivo al Presidente Barak Obama el jueves, dando a conocer cómo su gobierno llevará a cabo un proceso para proteger a los 5 millones de inmigrantes de una deportación.

LUIS SÁNCHEZ SATURNO/THE NEW MEXICAN

Declaración sobre inmigración causa emociones encontradas Por Uriel J. Garcia The New Mexican

ún antes de que el Presidente Barak Obama declarara el jueves que su administración podría proteger hasta 5 millones de inmigrantes indocumentados de una posible deportación, activistas locales se habían preparado ya para ayudar a miles en Nuevo México.

Los principales beneficiarios son aquellos que han estado en E.E.U.U ilegalmente por más de cinco años pero que sus hijos son ciudadanos o residentes legales permanentes. Después de someterse a una revisión de antecedentes y pagar por trámites, de acuerdo a la Casa Blanca, podrán obtener un documento protegiéndolos de una deportación por tres años y obtener permisos de trabajo. El gobierno espera cerca de 4.1 millones cumplan los requisitos, de los 11 millones de inmigrantes indocumentados.

De los inmigrantes indocumentados a lo largo del país, incluyendo cerca de 70,000 en Nuevo México, tomaron la noticia de la posibilidad de ser legales con emociones encontradas. Algunos reconocieron que no todos aquellos que conocen podrían ser elegidos.

“Esta es una gran noticia, pero a la vez me siento triste por aquellos que no podrán obtener este beneficio”, comenta Minerva Pacheco, 44, que tiene un hijo de 13 años nacido en E.E.U.U. y ha vivido en Santa Fe por 17 años sin un estatus legal de inmigración. Ella comenta que tiene hermanos en la ciudad que no podrán solicitar este permiso ya que no cuentan con hijos nacidos en el país o que sean residentes legales permanentes.

Pacheco asistió a la transmisión de la medida en vivo del presidente Obama el jueves en las oficinas del Partido Demócrata del Condado de Santa Fe. Leticia Márquez, que también asistió al evento, comentó que tomando el criterio del gobierno de Obama, ella no calificaría. “Pero eso no me preocupa,” dijo.

“Ya estoy acostumbrada a vivir sin documentos,” dijo Márquez, que llegó de México hace 10 años. Su esposo y sus dos hijos de 25 y 27 años, tampoco cuentan con una ciudadanía. “Me

siento cómoda por ahora. Puedo trabajar, viajar y manejar, además cuento con mi propio negocio [limpiando casas].”

La última reforma migratoria de gran alcance vino del Presidente Republicano Ronald Reagan, que firmó una ley permitiendo a inmigrantes solicitar su legalización. Algunos expertos estiman que cerca de 2.7 millones de inmigrantes, de los 5 millones indocumentados en ese entonces, recibieron su tarjeta verde – identificación que mostraba que eran residentes legales permanentes — en 1986.

En respuesta a las expectativas sobre el anuncio de Obama, activistas en Santa Fe han planeado juntas de información legal para proveer detalles sobre quiénes y cómo solicitar el beneficio. Para abogados de inmigración el evento les hizo recordar el anuncio del gobierno de Obama hace dos años, sobre inmigrantes jóvenes que estarían protegidos de una deportación y podrían solicitar permisos de trabajo.

El gobierno de Obama también está ampliando la medida del 2012 conocido como Acción Diferida para los Llegados en la Infancia, hacia aquellos jóvenes que ingresaron al país ilegalmente. Obama expandirá la elegibilidad de aquellos que llegaron a los E.E.U.U. como menores antes del 2010, en vez del corte actual en el 2007, eliminando también el requisito de ser menor de 31. Estos cambios afectarán a cerca de 300,000 personas. Las aplicaciones para la nueva prórroga de deportación comenzará en la primavera. Se otorgará a aquellos que cumplan los requisitos, una prórroga de deportación por tres años.

“Por el momento queremos informar a la comunidad,” comentó Juan Carlos Deoses, abogado del New Mexico Dreamers in Action, un grupo activista en Santa Fe. Comentó que su organización planea clínicas legales para ayudar a inmigrantes ilegales en Santa Fe con la nueva ley. Un punto clave para la organización es informar que esta noticia no significa una línea directa para la ciudadanía de E.E.U.U y no cubrirá a todos los inmigrantes ilegales.

a era el tiempo de Advent y Grampo Caralampio estaba en la kitchen making una lista.

Canutito came into la cocina and saw him sentão there en la mesa thinking and writing down cosas en un papel. He approached him a ver qué estaba haciLarry Torres endo.

Growing up “What kind Spanglish of a lista are you making, grampo,” el muchachito asked him.

“I am making una lista de todas las things que tu grama needs me to bring her back de la tienda. She is going to need munchas cosas from the store y yo no puedo hacer remember them all.”

“While you’re haciendo la lista de las groceries,” Grama Cuca said, coming into la cocina, “¿por qué no haces también una lista of all your sins and go to confession on your way into town? I’m sure que tienes all kinds of things para confesar antes de Christmas. And also no olvides que you have to stop acase el doctor para que te haga adjust tu hearing aide.”

Grampo Caralampio wrote down todas las cosas que tenía que hacer and also una lista de todos sus sins para ir a confession. He grabbed su lista and jumped en la troca and he was off. First he stopped by en la iglesia and, después de waiting in line por mucho tiempo, he went into confession and told his sins to the padre. All during the time que grampo estaba en el confessional, su hearing aide kept chilflando porque la batería in it estaba low. Finally he finished confessing sus pecados and the priest gave him a penitencia to do.

Luego, he went to the doctor’s office y el doctor le hizo adjust su hearing aide and he also put some new batteries en el hearing aide para que no hiciera screech any more. Finally grampo drove over para la tienda a comprar todas las cosas en su shopping list.

Dos horas después Grampo Caralampio returned home with many bags que comenzó a unload carefully. Grama Cuca estaba in the back room doing laundry so ella no podía ayudarle a él. Grampo called Canutito over to help him porque he was carrying some bags que tenían cosas made of glasses en ellos.

Primero grampo unpacked todas las groceries que Grama Cuca had ordered and put them away en el trastero. Canutito just stood around helping him empty out los parquetes.

Then Canutito noticed que grampo had bought a couple of cosas extrañas.

“What is this strange thing, grampo?” Canutito asked curiously.

“Ese es un blender,” Grampo Caralampio replied. “Se usa para hacer blend juices y para hacer drinks.”

“Qué clase de drinks are you going to blend, grampo?” Canutito asked.

“Vamos a ver,” grampo said as he connected el blender and poured un bonche de vodka into it. Next he poured una botella llena de tomato juice y lo hizo blend con la vodka.

Lastly grampo added un poquito de Worchestershire sauce al líquido en el blender. He laid out ten drinking glasses en la mesa and he told Canutito, “Oye, m’hijo, would you please cortarme ten sticks de celery?”

Canutito no sabía what to think pero como él siempre hacía whatever grampo asked him to do, he took out el celery de la hielera and cut grampo ten pieces de apio and brought them to him. “Now place un celery en cada vaso,” grampo ordered.

Canutito did lo que grampo asked and he watched as Grampo Caralampio filled todos los glasses con vodka y tomato juice. Grampo sat down en la mesa prepared to drink all ten vasos llenos cuando Grama Cuca walked into la cocina. “¿Qué fregãos estás haciendo?” she asked grampo toda surprised.

“I went to confession,” grampo began, “y después de que I had finished, el padre told me que as my penance I had to take ten Bloody Marys.”

“No dijo ‘take ten Bloody Marys,’” Grama Cuca lo corrigió. “He probably said, ‘pray ten Hail Marys’! ¡Viejo tonto! You should have gone para que te chequearan el hearing aid before going to confession!”

Grama dompeó all the Bloody Marys en la olla del marrano and grampo just sat there todo disappointed …

ix college applications once seemed like a lot. Submitting eight was a mark of great ambition. For a growing number of increasingly anxious high school seniors, figures like that now sound like a warm-up.

Alexa Verola, a senior at Mahwah High School in northern New Jersey, drew up a list of some colleges where she would be happy majoring in anthropology and added more that would be good for photography or sound design: 18 in all. Then she applied to every last one of them.

Eighteen is a lot, but good colleges are so hard to get into these days, Verola reasoned, and there will always be students out there with better board scores or higher grades. So after those 18 applications were in — most of them way ahead of schedule — she looked over the list and decided to add 11 more.

“My guidance counselor thought it was a little too much,” she said. “She was worried about me getting too stressed out about it. There are a lot of high school students who are really stressed out.”

With college application season upon them, it appears a lot of stressed-out high school students are following the same path Verola did: Faced with an increasingly competitive landscape, they have begun applying to more colleges than anyone would previously have thought possible.

For members of the Class of 2015 who are looking at more competitive colleges, their overtaxed counselors say, 10 is now commonplace; 20 is taking on a familiar ring; even 30 is not beyond imagining.

And why stop there?

Brandon Kosatka, director of student services at the Thomas Jefferson School for Science and Technology in Alexandria, Va., recently worked with a student who wanted a spot in a music conservatory program. To find it, she applied to 56 colleges. A spokeswoman for Naviance, an online tool that many high school students and their counselors use to keep track of applications, said one current user’s “colleges I’m applying to” tab already includes 60 institutions. Last year, the record was 86.

A number of factors contribute to this rapid escalation.

One is the growing popularity of the Common Application, which more than 500 colleges now honor and which can make it almost as easy for students to throw their hat in a few dozen rings as in one. Another is the tough economy, which

How many applications is too many? drives students to look ever farther afield for a college that can meet their financial aid needs.

But perhaps the most pressing factor has been plain old fear.

“Every year, the story is that college is harder to get into, so kids panic and think they have to apply to more places,” said Jim Jump, academic dean and director of guidance at St. Christopher’s School in Richmond, Va. The resulting surfeit of applications drives acceptance rates down even further, making the next year’s high school seniors even more panicked.

“It becomes a mania, almost,” Jump said.

According to the National Association for College Admission Counseling, in 1990, just 9 percent of students applied to seven or more colleges. By 2011, the year of its most recent survey, that group had risen to 29 percent.

In the Class of 2014, according to Naviance, 16.5 percent of seniors using the system said they intended to apply to 11 to 20 colleges. (Naviance did not have figures on how many applications were actually filed.)

With application fees running as high as $80, the scattershot approach can be a costly one. Last year, Annie Fagerlee of Minnetonka, Minn., applied to 18 colleges.

Some waived the fee, but in the end, Fagerlee, now at DePaul University, estimated it cost her family about $1,500 just to get the applications out the door. Still, college counselors say cost is rarely an inhibiting factor. What’s $1,500, the reasoning goes, when these colleges might cost $50,000 a year?

On average, college-bound U.S. high school students apply to just a handful of places, reflecting the fact that most colleges are not highly selective and that many students have limited access to college counselors. (The College Board,

In the upper reaches of the applicant pool, however — especially among the kinds of upper-middle-class communities that can breed their own college neuroses — numbers can escalate rapidly.

Some high schools set a limit of perhaps 10 colleges per student. Others allow application creep, either because they do not want to infringe on a family’s decisions or because they have concluded that families will do what they want, regardless. But most college counselors agree on one point: Filing so many applications is a terrible idea.

For one thing, counselors warn, quality and quantity work against each other. And the problems of scale only get larger as decisions roll in. Five rejections are painful; 15 can be devastating.

“The funny thing about 17-year-olds,” said Lisa Sohmer, director of college counseling at the Garden School in New York, “is when you tell them that only 10 percent of students are accepted to school X, they never make the connection — even the math ones — that 90 percent are denied.”

But the most compelling reason not to apply to dozens of colleges, counselors say, is that more applications do not necessarily mean better odds.

“It’s not like the lottery,” said Michael Carter of St. Stephen’s & St. Agnes School in Alexandria.

Ultimately, a wide range of counselors say, all they can do is counsel against applying to dozens of schools and against college-admissions panic in general.

“That’s when the kids put their best foot forward,” Kosatka said. “The kids who try to game the system just end up getting played in the end.”

Nestle’s next goal: Exercise in a bottle Enzyme that can help regulate metabolism found, company says

Study: Tilting head forward to use smartphone puts weight, stress on spine

By Lindsey Bever The Washington Post

The human head weighs about a dozen pounds. But as the neck bends forward and down, the weight on the cervical spine begins to increase. At a 15-degree angle, this weight is about 27 pounds, at 30 degrees it’s 40 pounds, at 45 degrees it’s 49 pounds, and at 60 degrees it’s 60 pounds.

That’s the burden that comes with staring at a smartphone — the way millions do for hours every day, according to research published by Kenneth Hansraj in the National Library of Medicine. The study will appear next month in Surgical Technology International. Over time, researchers say, this poor posture, sometimes called “text neck,” can lead to early wear-and-tear on the spine, degeneration and even surgery.

“It is an epidemic or, at least, it’s very common,” Hansraj, chief of spine surgery at New York Spine Surgery and Rehabilitation Medicine, told The Washington Post. “Just look around you, everyone has their heads down.”

Can’t grasp the significance of 60 pounds?

Imagine carrying an 8-year-old around your neck several hours per day. Smartphone users spend an average of two to four hours per day hunched over, reading emails, sending texts or checking social media sites.

That’s 700 to 1,400 hours per year people are putting stress on their spines, according to the research. And high-schoolers might be the worst. They could conceivably spend

an additional 5,000 hours in this position, Hansraj said.

“The problem is really profound in young people,” he said. “With this excessive stress in the neck, we might start seeing young people needing spine care. I would really like to see parents showing more guidance.”

Medical experts have been warning people

It’s a risk for some 58 percent of American adults who own smartphones. for years. Some say for every inch the head tilts forward, the pressure on the spine doubles.

Tom DiAngelis, president of the American Physical Therapy Association’s Private Practice Section, told CNN last year the effect is similar to bending a finger all the way back and holding it there for about an hour.

“As you stretch the tissue for a long period of time, it gets sore, it gets inflamed,” he said. It can also cause muscle strain, pinched nerves, herniated disks and, over time, it can even remove the neck’s natural curve.

It’s a risk for some 58 percent of American adults who own smartphones.

Michelle Collie, a doctor who heads Per-

formance Physical Therapy in Rhode Island, told CNN last year she started seeing patients with mobile technology-induced head, neck and back pain some six or seven years ago.

Poor posture can cause other problems as well. Experts say it can reduce lung capacity by as much as 30 percent. It has also been linked to headaches and neurological issues, depression and heart disease.

“While it is nearly impossible to avoid the technologies that cause these issues, individuals should make an effort to look at their phones with a neutral spine and to avoid spending hours each day hunched over,” according to the research.

Speaking on TODAY, Hansraj gave smartphone users tips to avoid pain: u Look down at your device with your eyes. No need to bend your neck. u Exercise: Move your head from left to right several times. u Use your hands to provide resistance and push your head against them, first forward and then backward. u Stand in a doorway with your arms extended and push your chest forward to strengthen “the muscles of good posture,” Hansraj said.

“I love technology. I’m not bashing technology in any way,” Hansraj said. “My message is: Just be cognizant of where your head is in space. Continue to enjoy your smartphones and continue to enjoy this technology — just make sure your head is up.”

Worm spends 4 years burrowing in man’s brain

By Rachel Feltman The Washington Post

After four years of headaches, a British man was found to have a rare guest living inside his skull: a tapeworm. The case is reported in the journal Genome Biology.

Does your head hurt yet? Give it a minute.

The nearly half-inch-long Spirometra erinaceieuropaei worm was found during a brain biopsy

to investigate strange patterns doctors had seen moving slowly across the host’s brain scans over the years. The worm doesn’t have a mouth, so it wasn’t literally eating the man’s brain tissue — just absorbing nutrients from it as it slowly wriggled across the organ.

During the man’s four years of getting his brain scanned, the worm moved two inches from the right side of the brain to the left.

ZURICH — Tucked away near Lake Geneva, a handful of Nestle scientists are quietly working on realizing every couch potato’s dream: exercise that comes in a bottle.

The world’s biggest food company, known for KitKat candy bars and Nespresso capsules, says it has identified how an enzyme in charge of regulating metabolism can be stimulated by a compound called C13, a potential first step in developing a way to mimic the fat-burning effect of exercise. The findings were published in the science journal Chemistry & Biology in July.

While any slimming smoothies or snack bars are a long way off, eight scientists at the Nestle Institute of Health Sciences in Lausanne, Switzerland, are looking for natural substances that can act as triggers.

Nestle’s commitment to this type of project illustrates how the company is working to address consumers’ disenchantment with packaged food by formulating products that can do more than sate hunger.

“The border between food and pharma will narrow in the coming years,” said Jean-Philippe Bertschy, an analyst at Bank Vontobel in Zurich. “Companies with a diversified, healthy food portfolio will emerge as the winners.”

The numbers already point that way. Consumers’ appetite for food perceived to bring a health benefit, such as gluten-free pasta and organic juice, is forecast to outpace growth in traditional packaged food through 2019 after doing so almost every year in the past decade, according to research firm Euromonitor International.

On the ground floor of a box-like building on the campus of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, the Nestle scientists are sorting through natural substances such as fruit and plant extracts to see which ones could modulate the enzyme called AMPK, which acts as a metabolic master switch to facilitate the body’s use of sugar and fat.

The goal is to develop a nutritional product that mimics or enhances the effect of exercise for people with limited mobility due to old age, diabetes or obesity, Kei Sakamoto, the scientist who oversees research on diabetes and circadian rhythms at Nestle, said in a telephone interview.

Test on animals probably won’t start for several years, he said.

“The enzyme can help people who can’t tolerate or continue rigorous exercise,” Sakamoto said. “Instead of 20 minutes of jogging or 40 minutes of cycling, it may help boost metabolism with moderate exercise like brisk walking. They’d get similar effects with less strain.”

AMPK’s role is crucial “as energy is needed for all the key physiological processes in the body, from secreting a hormone to moving a muscle and even brain function,” Nestle said in a statement Nov. 19 disclosing its research on the enzyme.

The push into science nutrition means Nestle is going after targets that pharmaceutical companies have pursued for years.

Rigel Pharmaceuticals of San Francisco started testing its own experimental AMPK activator on humans earlier this year, to see if it can help with one of the consequences of a chronic form of vascular disease. The German drugmaker Boehringer Ingelheim is working with the Indian biotech Connexios Life Sciences to develop AMPK activators for diabetes.

The list of those who have tried to target AMPK and had no success so far, directly or through collaborations, includes Merck & Co. of the U.S. and Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories of India. Merck is still at it after more than a decade of research, according to spokeswoman Pamela Eisele.

Dr. Reddy’s, reached via email, says it has abandoned research on the enzyme.

One older diabetes medicine does work by stimulating AMPK. The drug, called metformin, inhibits sugar output from the liver and helps some patients slim down. Nestle doesn’t plan to partner with a drugmaker for its own AMPK project, according to Sakamoto. The Vevey, Switzerland-based company’s research budget of $1.6 billion last year almost rivaled that of the Danish drugmaker Novo Nordisk A/S. Naveed Sattar, a professor of metabolic medicine at the University of Glasgow, points out others have tried to develop fat-burning products before, to no avail.

“A successful attempt in producing metabolicassisting foods that mimic exercise would be marvelous — the holy grail,” Sattar said by telephone. “But there’s no such thing as a free lunch. So far no such product has ever passed clinical trials.”

Nestle’s dabbling in health extends far back.

Founder Henri Nestle was a pharmacist by training.

The company made Nestrovit vitamins as early as 1936 with the Swiss drugmaker now known as Roche Holding. Fifty years later it disbursed $2.5 billion to buy the medical nutrition unit of Roche’s archrival Novartis.

Current products include Boost shakes, which help diabetics manage their blood sugar levels, and Optifast, formulated to assist medically-at-risk patients who need to lose weight swiftly.

The commitment wasn’t always sustained: A joint venture with Baxter International Inc. to sell medical foods was disbanded almost 20 years ago. But lately, the company points to health nutrition as the way of the future, especially as it and others in the industry struggle to find the next frontier of growth, faced with consumers who increasingly shun packaged branded goods in favor of healthier or generic options.

“There’s still a lot about nutrition we don’t know and haven’t explored,” Ewa Hudson, head of health and wellness at Euromonitor in London, said in a phone interview. “You can’t be 100 percent certain of the outcome. It’s expensive. If anyone is to explore it, it would be a company like Nestle.”

2 UNM students killed in wreck with stolen truck Pair arrested; may face DWI charges in deaths The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — The University of New Mexico is mourning the loss of two students and the injuries of two others after a truck that was reported stolen slammed into the car they were in, a school official said Sunday.

Two of the students involved in the Friday night crash belong to the same sorority, UNM spokeswoman Dianne Anderson said.

“We have reached out to them to offer whatever university resources we can,” she said.

The two students killed were identified in a criminal complaint as Briana Hillard and Matthew Grant. According to police, Hillard was the sedan driver and died at the scene. Grant was taken to a hospital and rushed into surgery but died.

Julia Thompson and Joseph Mendoza were listed in critical but stable condition Sunday, police spokesman Simon Drobik said.

An Albuquerque police officer spotted the truck traveling at a high rate

of speed around 11:30 p.m. Friday near Albuquerque’s Old Town, an area populated by bars and restaurants.

The truck was heading northbound on Rio Grande Boulevard while the officer was traveling southbound, Drobik said.

By the time the officer turned his vehicle around, the truck had T-boned the sedan, which was exiting a parking lot. The impact overturned the sedan.

“The officers on scene were completely rocked and devastated by what they saw,” Drobik said. “To have four young people cut down in the prime

of their lives. They weren’t doing anything wrong.”

Joshua Leal, 21, and a 16-year-old male passenger fled from the truck after the accident, police said, but helicopters and officers were able to find them.

Both suspects were treated for minor injuries and then arrested.

Police verified that the truck had been reported stolen about a month ago, Drobik said.

A handgun was also recovered from the vehicle.

Drugs and alcohol were likely contributing factors in the crash, Drobik

Glacier: Warming contributes to melting Continued from Page A-1 are now caught and released to protect a population that is shrinking as water temperatures rise.

Many of the mom-and-pop ski areas that once peppered these mountains have closed.

Increasingly, the season is not long enough, nor the snows heavy enough, to justify staying open.

What is happening here is occurring, to greater or lesser extents, in mountains across the North American West.

In the Colorado Rockies, the median date of snowmelt shifted two to three weeks earlier from 1978 to 2007. In Washington, the Cascades lost nearly a quarter of their snowpack from 1930 to 2007. Every year, British Columbia’s glaciers shed the equivalent of 10 percent of the Mississippi River’s flow because of melting.

The retreat is not entirely due to man-made global warming, though scientists say that plays a major role. While the rate of melting has alternately sped up and slowed in lock step with decadeslong climate cycles, it has risen steeply since about 1980.

And while glaciers came and went millenniums ago, the changes this time are unfolding over a Rocky Mountain landscape of big cities, sprawling farms and growing industry.

All depend on steady supplies of water, and in the American West, at least 80 percent of it comes from the mountains.

“Glaciers are essentially a reservoir of water held back for decades, and they’re releasing that water in August when it’s hot, and streams otherwise

the changes firsthand. Grinnell Glacier, one of the park’s most studied ice sheets, feeds a frigid lake on the flanks of Mount Gould, more than 6,000 feet above sea level.

“At the beginning, we had a 25-foot-high wall of ice that we were actually concerned about from a safety standpoint,” he said. “And now the entire glacier simply slopes into the water, with no wall of ice whatsoever.

“All of that has melted just within the last 10 years.”

that is being observed and seems to be part of the strategy of the group,” Zerrougui said in a phone interview from New York.

She said some children join voluntarily for various reasons, but others are targeted.

“They are abducting children and forcing them to join, they are brainwashing children and indoctrinating them to join their group. All the tools used to attract and recruit children are used by this group,” she said, adding that children as young as 9 or 10 are used for “various roles.”

In areas of Syria and Iraq under their control, the Sunni extremists have closed schools or changed the curriculum to fit with their ideology. Their goal, according to the U.N., is to use education as a tool of indoctrination to foster a new generation of supporters.

A video recently published by an ISIS media arm shows what it says is a graduation ceremony for boys, who appear to be in their teens. Dressed in military uniforms, they are lined up to shake hands with a sheikh. Another scene shows the boys posing with AK-47s, their faces hidden under black masks. The video touts the children as a “generation of lions, protectors of religion, dignity and land.”

Residents of ISIS-controlled areas said the militants are teaching children at school to become fighters.

One resident in the Iraqi city of Fallujah described seeing his 6-year-old son playing with a water pistol in front of the house and screaming: “I am a fighter for the Islamic State!”

“I waved him to come to me and I broke the gun in two pieces,” said the man, who spoke on condition of anonymity out of fear of his life.

He also said he and his son recently stopped at an ISIS checkpoint. His son shouted, “We love the State!” and one of the fighters asked, “Which state?” When the son replied, “the Islamic State,” the fighter “told him, ‘Good boy,’ and let us through,” the resident said. The incident persuaded the man to move his family to the northern city of Kirkuk, now in Kurdish hands.

“The boys are studying, not to learn, but to become mujahedeen,” he said.

Earlier this year in Syria, the Islamic State group abducted more than 150 Kurdish boys, held them in a school in Aleppo province and showed them videos of beheadings and attacks, while subjecting them to daily instruction on militant ideology for five months, the U.N. and Kurdish officials said.

Funeral services and memorials VIVIAN J. MARTINEZ-ARCHIBEQUE 6-18-1957 ~ 11-24-2012 Once upon a time an angel held my hand, She wiped away my tears and helped me to understand. Our time on earth is brief, there’s lessons to be learned, Each precious day God gives us, is yet another page turned. Every chapter is filled with memories , times of joy and tears, Triumphs and defeats, through every passing year.

She loved us unconditionally, always by our side, When no one else would listen, in her we could always confide. With gentle words of wisdom she led us on our way, Down the paths of righteousness, if ever we did stray. She saw the light in everyone and gave with no regrets, Always from her heart let’s not forget.

Angels come in many forms, for me it is my Mother, With love, I cannot say in words for there will never be another.

Every day that I turn the page in my heart she will ever remain, As will remain everything she taught me as I stroll down memory lane. Thank God for giving me the most priceless of all treasures, Help me, My Lord to keep live her memory here forever. I pray that I would be everything she hoped I would be, And that’s she smiling down from heaven knowing she did good.

As we gather here today there is no ending to her story, Yet, another chapter has begun full of God’s grace anf glory. God called her to his Heavenly home, all part of His great plan, and Although it may be difficult, we must all understand. Faith is what is hoped for, in the things we cannot see, Heaven is promised to all of us if only we believe.

Your loving daughter, Elena Mae Montoya BOBBY BORREGO

When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul. Psalms 94:19 Our family has been so overwhelmed and humbled by the amount of love and support we have received during this very difficult time. We want to express our sincere appreciation to everyone that took time to come and see us, brought food and drinks, attended the services, paid for masses or sent cards. Thank you for the kind words and especially for sharing your fond memories of Bobby. We know that Bobby was loved by so many, old and young, and that he is going to be missed not only by his family but by many others. We miss Bobby terribly but we are so grateful that God allowed us and blessed us with the time and memories we do have and we will cherish those forever.

Once again thank you for generosity, support and prayers.

The West’s oldest newspaper, founded 1849 Robin M. Martin Owner

COMMENTARY: LORI L. THARPS

A case for Black, with capital ‘B’ I was sitting in my office at Temple University when I overheard an exchange between a colleague and his student. The student had come to see her professor to go over a paper, and he was patiently explaining that the abundance of grammatical mistakes detracted from her compelling content. I sympathized with my colleague as he pointed out error after error. Until he came to this one.

“Why did you capitalize black and white people?” he asked. “I thought I’d seen it written that way before,” the girl stammered. “Come on,” he said. “Why would you capitalize black or white?”

The student didn’t have an answer.

But I did, and it took a great deal of selfcontrol to not insert myself into the conversation, because this is one of my greatest frustrations as a writer and a Black woman living in the United States. When speaking of a culture, ethnicity or group of people, the name should be capitalized.

Black with a capital B refers to people of the African diaspora. Lowercase black is simply a color.

Linguists, academics and activists have been making this point for years, yet the publishing industry — our major newspapers, magazines and books — resist making this simple yet fundamental change.

Both Oxford and Webster’s dictionaries state that when referring to AfricanAmericans, Black can be and often is capitalized, but the New York Times and Associated Press stylebooks continue to insist on black with a lowercase b. Ironically, The Associated Press also decrees that the proper names of “nationalities, peoples, races, tribes” should be capitalized. What are Black people, then?

Ever since African people arrived in this country, we have had to fight for the right to a proper name. Upon arrival in the “New World” we were all collectively deemed Africans, even though we came from different countries, cultures and tribes. Very soon after, British colonists borrowed the Spanish term for black, and we became negros, negars, nigras and blacks — anything oppositional to the supposed purity of whiteness.

After emancipation, as many individuals replaced their slave surnames with ones of their own devising, like Freedman or Freeman, they still bore the painful legacy of the labels they’d been given: black, negro and colored.

It wasn’t only Black people who didn’t know what to call the nearly 4 million newly freed citizens of the United States.

The government itself fumbled its way through names, categories and labels for Black people. Between 1850 and 1920, the

United States census classified those of African descent as black, negro, mulatto, quadroon or octoroon — depending on the visual assessment of the census taker.

By 1930, the Census Bureau offered just one of these categories: negro.

This wasn’t solely an issue of identity politics. In a 2008 article on the census for Studies in American Political Development, Jennifer L. Hochschild and Brenna M. Powell wrote, “Over the course of almost a century, the U.S. government groped its way through extensive experimentation — reorganizing and reimaging the racial order, with corresponding impact on individuals’ and groups’ life chances.” These names matter.

In the mid-1920s, W. E. B. Du Bois began a letter-writing campaign, demanding that book publishers, newspaper editors and magazines capitalize the N in Negro when referring to Black people. Even though Du Bois himself didn’t use the word Negro consistently — one of his most famous works, after all, is The Souls of Black Folk — it was the official name for the race, and as such, Du Bois wanted that word to confer respect on the page as well as in daily life.

In 1926, The New York Times denied his request, as did most other newspapers. In 1929, when the editor for the Encyclopaedia Britannica informed Du Bois that Negro would be lowercased in the article he had submitted for publication, Du Bois quickly wrote a heated retort that called “the use of a small letter for the name of 12 million Americans and 200 human beings a personal insult.” The editor changed his mind and conceded to the capital N, as did many other mainstream publications including The Atlantic Monthly and, eventually, The New York Times.

On March 7, 1930, the Times announced its new policy on the editorial page: “In our Style Book, Negro is now added to the list of words to be capitalized. It is not merely a typographical change, it is an act in recognition of racial respect for those who have been generations in the ‘lower case.’ ” But within a few more decades, Negro itself had become an unpopular term, associated with a subservient type of Black person, one whose politics were more about patience instead of protest.

The 1960s ushered in the Black power movement, inspiring a generation to claim that which had been demonized.

In the late 1980s, Jesse Jackson pushed “African-American” into common usage, offering a new term that wasn’t tainted by a racist history — and conferred the respect of indisputable capital letters.

By 2000, Black Americans had a choice of what to call themselves on the census: “Black, African Am., or Negro” (because some older people preferred it). All racial and ethnic categories are capitalized on the census — including White.

If we’ve traded Negro for Black, why was that first letter demoted back to lowercase, when the argument had already been won? Publications like Essence and Ebony push back, proudly capitalizing the B. But claiming the uppercase as a choice, rather than the rule, feels inadequate.

Black should always be written with a capital B. We are indeed a people, a race, a tribe. It’s only correct.

Lori L. Tharps is an assistant professor of journalism at Temple University. This commentary first appeared in The New York Times.

ttorney General-elect Hector Balderas isn’t wasting any time — his transition website is up and running (balderaselects.com) so that come Jan. 1, the new attorney general will be ready to get to work.

Constituents are being invited to send in concerns — that’s important, considering that several of Balderas’ best investigations as state auditor came from the public. As attorney general, Balderas wants input from citizens so that the conversation that began during the election can continue. In his mind, he can do a better job as the state’s chief lawyer if he knows what the citizens need from their attorney.

Best of all in this job-scarce state, the attorney generalto-be has announced he is hiring. To be considered, send a résumé, references and a letter of interest to careers@ hectorbalderas.com. As the brief note at balderaselects.com says, “if you are interested in being part of a dynamic, statewide office and possess the desire to fight tirelessly for the people of New Mexico, we want to hear from you!”

Obviously, the new attorney general isn’t going to completely turn over the office. He wants the best and the brightest, whether from among current staff or outside.

The staff attorneys can reapply for positions, though, and there are other vacant positions and prospective retirements. Jobs aren’t just for attorneys, either. A special projects coordinator or a victims ombudsman doesn’t have to have attended law school. Neither does a financial auditor, special agent or information systems administrator.

Hiring is important, too, because what kinds of lawyers are hired and how the divisions are set up determines what work the office will do. Now, before the new boss takes office, is the period in which he can assess skills, organize his office structure, eliminate deadwood and also bring in different ideas. There’s that balancing act between preserving necessary institutional memory and tapping new blood.

Which, by the way, doesn’t have to be in the form of young whippersnappers. Serving in the Attorney General’s Office is a form of public service, one we hope to see experienced lawyers take up before they retire. They won’t make as much money, but they can shape the future of New Mexico and re-energize this essential state office.

Balderas, by moving swiftly in the transition, is already delivering on the promises he made to voters.

The past 100 years LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Eval system humiliates teachers A fter reading the article (“Lawmakers hear ideas on teacher eval system,” Nov. 18), I wanted to cry. As an elementary teacher with more than 20 years of teaching experience and a recent NMTeach designation as a highly effective teacher, I am outraged at the effect this completely humiliating and seemingly arbitrary evaluation system is having on my colleagues.

Being highly effective, I am no sour apple, but my colleagues have every right to be.

Teachers with National Board Certification are being forced to jump through the hoops of improvement plans and unexplainable poor ratings by school administrators who have not been trained on the instrument and can’t provide adequate and meaningful feedback on the results.

Teacher morale is suffering and can only trickle down to our students, who are daily showing up (for the most part) and trying to overcome

an avalanche of hurdles that have been repeatedly identified in the media and in educational research. We continually ask them to take tests and more tests so that we as educators can be evaluated.

Isn’t that really the objective of all this? Who else in state government is being evaluated by these same standards?

PNM’s deception Amy Miller’s PR piece (“PNM plan means cleaner energy,” Nov. 16) is riddled with deception. She presents the San Juan coal plant closures as the “Public Service Company of New Mexico’s proposal,” when the Environmental Protection Agency mandated the closures. She claims PNM’s plan “significantly” increases solar and wind — the plan only increases solar from 2 percent to 4 percent and wind from

5 percent to 7 percent, while increasing nuclear and gas from 35 percent to 50 percent.

She plugs PNM as “protecting the environment,” but PNM’s plan would saddle ratepayers with an investment in antiquated coal that creates virtually no jobs and locks New Mexico into dirty energy for 20 years. Focusing on solar and wind farms would yield more jobs and cleaner, affordable, renewable energy. Miller conveniently omits PNM’s 2013 $100 million profit to distant shareholders, a 41 percent rate increase in the last five years, and its plan for another 20 percent rate hike. New Mexico should reject PNM’s deceptive coal and nuclear “replacement” plan.

Letters to the editor, Nov. 17) will have to stop blaming Hamas for everything that happens in Gaza. Two events after the cease-fire should create some perspective. First, one of Israel’s first acts after the cease-fire was to annex 1,000 acres of land on the West Bank, the largest such land grab in three decades. Second, 43 members of Israel’s elite Unit 8200, the signals intelligence unit of the Israel Defense Forces, announced on Sept. 12 their refusal to serve any longer because of their belief that their intelligence gathering “harms innocents and serves for political persecution and sowing discord in Palestinian society.”

Using Hamas as a scapegoat conveniently allows the current Israeli government to escape responsibility for its own actions and to preserve the status quo of occupation.

From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Nov. 24, 1914: Amsterdam, via London — The cargo of provisions for the destitute people of Belgium, sent by the Rockefeller Foundation on the steamer Massapequa was unloaded here today and is now on the way to Belgium. Before the shipment had been made fast, 500 stevedores swarmed aboard. They unloaded the cargo with speed, which was never before equaled at this port.

The stevedores fought for the coveted privilege of helping in the work, which carried with it the right to use a pass marked “Member American commission” and the process of unloading being watched by a large crowd.

London — The relief work of the Rockefeller Foundation in Austria, Serbia, France and some sections of Russia will be undertaken actively at once. The needs of the people perhaps are as great as that of Belgium, although less has been heard of conditions there.

Nov. 24, 1964: Creede, Colo. — An Army helicopter was grounded today while two higher flying ones, which were rented, flew again in search of a missing Pershing missile. The search was hindered Monday by air turbulence. A spokesman for White Sands Missile Range said only copters from Durango, Colo., would be used today. White Sands was the target of the $1 million missile fired by a team north of Fort Bliss, Texas. It crashed in southern Colorado.

Nov. 24, 1989: You don’t have to be poor to qualify for a food distribution program that will be launched at more than 30 locations next month. But you do have to sign up today. Carl Conley, president of The Life Link, says anyone who needs help stretching food dollars is eligible to receive a box of groceries every month in exchange for a $15 contribution and two hours of community service. A value of $35 in food.

By Ron Harris The Associated Press

ATLANTA — Not all selfies are created equal. Some are blurry, are poorly framed or miss the action entirely because you might be scrubbing your thumb fishing for a virtual shutter button as the moment passes you by.

Although phone manufacturers are trying to help by building in tools for better selfies, many of these have their limits. For better selfies, consider some of these gadgets for yourself or your loved ones.

This one is really simple. The Halo is a small plastic button that serves as a wireless shutter trigger for your phone’s camera. Its only job is to trigger your phone’s shutter when you click the button. One function, one result.

My tests with the Halo for my Android phone went smoothly. The company makes an iPhone version called Hisy.

You need to install its free camera app, Shutter Panorama, as neither Halo nor Hisy works with the regular camera app that comes with the phone.

Shutter Panorama doesn’t have too many manual settings or special features. But the device does a good job in allowing me to place my phone in places other than my hand. I got some nice shots of myself and my dog by putting the phone against a rock in the front yard and sitting a few feet away.

Kodak Pixpro SL25 ($300) The Pixpro SL25 from Kodak is essentially a camera lens that mounts onto your phone, allowing for higher resolution than what your phone’s camera can capture. The Pixpro communicates with your phone over Wi-Fi and lets you compose the image on the phone’s screen. Once the photos are snapped using the shutter button on the Pixpro, the phone serves primarily to review and share the images to social media services.

The downside is you have a second device to carry around,

which defeats the purpose of taking selfies on the fly.

The upside is image quality. The Pixpro shoots sharp 16 megapixel photos and full high-definition video at 1080p.

This quality is common for rear cameras, but not the front ones for selfies. As a bonus, the Pixpro offers a zoom of up to 25 times, which is more helpful for regular shots than selfies. It’s a real, optical zoom, not a software magnification phones typically use.

The Pixpro has fold-out arms to attach to my phone, such that the two devices act as one. That, in itself, isn’t different from using just the phone for selfies. But I was able to hold the Pixpro and press the shutter in ways I could not with my phone. For instance, I was able to have my finger rest on a physical button on the Pixpro instead of searching on the phone’s touch screen for a virtual one.

I had a lot of success using the Pixpro unattached to my phone as well. It has a wideangle lens that fits plenty of action into the frame.

Satechi Smart Selfie Extension Arm Monopod ($50) This telescoping monopod from Satechi helps get more than just yourself in the frame.

Similar to the Kodak unit, this monopod has spring-loaded rubber pieces that grip the phone on its sides, holding it firmly in place. From there, you simply extend the telescoping device out to its full three feet and get lots of buddies or surroundings into the shot.

What really helps is that a shutter button on the grip of the pole connects to your phone via Bluetooth, allowing you to snap the selfie without reaching up to the phone. Once I paired the monopod to my phone and launched my default camera app, I was able to easily snap various selfies with a birds-eye view and other vantage points longer than my arm.

The Satechi unit worked fine with my phone’s default camera, but not with other camera apps I enjoy, such as FxCamera and Candy Camera.

New faces help Texas A&M get past New Mexico

By Kyle Hightower The Associated Press

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Texas A&M coach Billy Kennedy hoped he’d have a few new players with him on his roster this week when the Aggies traveled to the Puerto Rico Tip-Off. He finally got them on the tournament’s final day, and it turned out to be great timing.

Danuel House had 18 points and Texas A&M rallied from 12 points down to beat New Mexico 64-51 to give the Aggies fifth place in the threeday tournament. The Lobos (3-2)

dropped two of their three games in Coliseo Roberto Clemente, losing a pair of players to injury in the process.

UNM point guard Cullen Neal suffered a ankle injury in an opening round loss to Boston College, then had his replacement in the starting lineup — Arthur Edwards — suffer what head coach Craig Neal later described as a compound fracture of a finger.

The Lobos were undone by A&M’s hot shooting in the second half. At one point the Aggies (4-1) hit eight of nine shots and finished at 62 percent in the second half.

young team and they gotta grow up a little bit,” UNM head coach Craig Neal said. “They got punched in the face and they didn’t stand up to the fight.”

It was the first game for A&M’s House, a transfer from Houston, who was just approved to play this season by the NCAA on Friday.

In all, the Aggies had three new players on the court Sunday. Joining House were freshman Tonny TrochaMorelos, from Columbia and sophomore Dylan Johns, from England.

Grizzlies rout the Clippers, improve to 12-2

By Clay Bailey The Associated Press

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Marc Gasol’s dominance is making one of the NBA’s best frontcourts even better.

Gasol had 30 points and 12 rebounds to lead the Memphis Grizzlies to a Grizzlies 107 107-91 victory Clippers 91 over the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday night. It marked the second straight game Gasol has recorded at least 30 points.

The victory left Memphis with the league’s best record (12-2) behind a more aggressive Gasol, who is complementing his jumper with moves to the basket this season.

“There was no doubt in my mind that Marc would be aggressive,” point guard Mike Conley said, adding: “Once you see the 12-2 start, we’re going to tell him to go get 30 every night.”

Gasol opened the game with a pair of jumpers, then began taking the ball to the basket. The result was 12 firstquarter points as Memphis erased the Clippers’ only lead of the game and built the advantage to 25 by the fourth.

“When you make jumpers, it forces the defense to come out,” Gasol said.

“It creates shots for other people, and I’m happy with that.”

Six Grizzlies reached double figures. Courtney Lee added 13 points for Memphis.

Tony Allen had 12 points, while Beno Udrih and Quincy Pondexter had 11 points apiece off the Memphis bench. Zach Randolph had 10 points.

The Clippers, who won their first two on a seven-game road swing, didn’t execute early, and didn’t have an answer for Gasol.

“We really have to come out executing and aggressive and hit first,” said Chris Paul, who led the Clippers with 22 points, five assists and four steals. “We really have to do a better job of doing it consistently.”

Jamal Crawford scored 19, and J.J. Redick finished with 15, going 3 of 6 from outside the arc.

Blake Griffin scored 12 points, but was 5 of 17 from the field.

Manning, Anderson lead Denver past Miami

By Arnie Stapleton The Associated Press

DENVER he Denver Broncos’ much maligned offensive line broke their silence last week.

They made an earsplitting statement Sunday.

Behind blockers angry over being scapegoated for the team’s myriad problems, the Broncos found

T

the balance, ground game and pocket of protection that had eluded them during their recent slide.

Capitalizing on this newfound nastiness, Peyton Manning threw four TD passes, including three to Demaryius Thomas, and C.J. Anderson ran for 167 yards and the go-ahead score in Denver’s 39-36 win over Miami on Sunday.

“We all needed to be accountable to our teammates,” guard Orlando Franklin said. “We felt we’ve been letting our teammates down and not taking care of business.”

With perfect balance — 35 runs and 35 throws — the Broncos (8-3) overcame an 11-point fourthquarter deficit to stay atop the highly competitive AFC West.

“They took so much [heat] during the week,” Anderson said of the O-line, which is building chemistry on the run after wholesale changes three weeks ago. “They’re still human and some of them got feelings. They’re not going to tell you, but some of them were hurt.”

They put the hurt on the Dolphins to the tune of 201 yards, but the Broncos’ first lead didn’t come until Anderson’s 10-yard run up the middle with 5:01 left put Denver ahead 32-28.

Then, Ryan Tannehill’s pass skipped off Jarvis Landry’s left hand to T.J. Ward, whose 37-yard return set up Wes Welker’s insurance TD catch.

COWBOYS 31, GIANTS 28

Cowboys rally behind Romo, beat Giants

By Barry Wilner The Associated Press

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Odell Beckham Jr. provided the spectacular, then Tony Romo and Dez Bryant trumped it.

Romo threw two touchdown passes to Bryant, the winner from 13 yards with 1:01 remaining, lifting the Dallas Cowboys to a comeback 31-28 victory over the New York Giants.

Romo threw for two TDs in the third quarter and Barry Church’s interception helped turn things in the Cowboys’ favor. But the Giants (3-8), trailing 24-21, staged a 93-yard drive capped by Adrien Robinson’s first career TD catch.

That 1-yard score with 3 minutes remaining could have snapped New York’s slide that now is at six losses.

Back came Dallas (8-3) on an 80-yard march in which Romo never was pressured as he searched for receivers. He found Bryant in the back of the end zone to win it, setting up an NFC East showdown with Philadelphia on Thanksgiving Day for first place.

Dallas, which was treated to chants of “Let’s Go Cowboys!” in the second half from hundreds of fans in Cowboys garb, is 5-0 on the road. New York, meanwhile,

Grizzlies: Heat snaps 3-game home slide with win over Hornets Continued from Page B-1 Los Angeles, which was averaging 103.5 points, had its nine-game streak of scoring at least 100 points on the road end.

“Once they got the lead, it was hard to get back into the tempo of the game,” Clippers coach Doc Rivers said. “I thought the second half we lost our way a little bit.”

Paul tried to guide the Clippers back into the game after halftime, scoring 13 points in the third, and Los Angeles got within eight points. But Memphis rebuilt the lead to 25 points in the fourth as Rivers relied on his reserves to try and erase the deficit. The Los Angeles bench made a run to get within 15, but Memphis never let them get any closer.

Rivers recognized that a different

Gasol has made the Grizzlies more dangerous.

“I don’t know if he has been on a good diet, but he looks great and is playing great,” Rivers said. “The Grizzlies seem to have that edge. They aren’t messing around.”

HEAT 94, HORNETS 93 In Miami, Luol Deng scored 26 points, Chris Bosh and Mario Chalmers each added 20 and Miami held on in the final seconds to beat Charlotte and snap a three-game home slide.

Kemba Walker missed two potential go-ahead shots in the final half-minute for the Hornets, and Al Jefferson’s tip-in try bounced off the rim as time expired as Charlotte dropped its fifth straight.

Chalmers had 10 assists for his second double-double of the season and Shabazz Napier scored 14 for the Heat.

Jefferson finished with 22 points

and 12 rebounds for Charlotte, which got 17 points from Lance Stephenson and 16 from Walker. The Hornets led by as many as eight in the fourth, before Miami rallied.

three quarters before the Trail Blazers took charge with a 17-5 run to start the fourth. Wesley Matthews and Lillard each hit a 3-pointer just over a minute apart.

TRAIL BLAZERS 94, CELTICS 88 In Boston, LaMarcus Aldridge had 20 points and 14 rebounds, reserve Chris Kaman scored 16 points and Portland extended its winning streak to seven games.

Damian Lillard added 12 points and five assists for Portland, which began a brief East swing. Nicolas Batum also had 12 points.

Jeff Green and Jared Sullinger had 19 points apiece for Boston, which dropped its fifth in six games. Avery Bradley and Rajon Rondo each scored 13. Rondo added eight assists and six rebounds.

The game was tied at 72-all after

WARRIORS 91, THUNDER 86 In Oklahoma City, Marreese Speights scored 28 points for Golden State, matching the second-highest scoring game of his career and his best total since 2009.

Klay Thompson scored 20 points and Stephen Curry added 15 for the Warriors (10-2), who won despite shooting a season-low 35.5 percent from the field. Thompson and Curry, two of the top 10 scorers in the league, combined to make just 11 of 35 shots.

Reggie Jackson had 22 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists, and Anthony Morrow added 16 points and matched a career high with

12 rebounds for Oklahoma City.

Serge Ibaka scored 16 points, but shot just 5 of 17 for the Thunder (3-13).

NUGGETS 101, LAKERS 94 (OT) In Los Angeles, Wilson Chandler scored 19 points and Ty Lawson had 16 points and 16 assists, Denver beat the Lakers.

Arron Afflalo added 15 points for the Nuggets, who have won five of six following a 1-6 start that was capped by consecutive double-digit losses to Portland.

The Lakers, coming off a 140-106 drubbing at Dallas, began a four-game homestand with their seventh straight loss to the Nuggets, despite 27 points from Kobe Bryant.

The NBA’s No. 4 career scorer made only four of 14 shots after the third quarter and finished 10 for 24.

B-3

NFL ROUNDUP

Wilson, defense lead Seahawks past Cardinals The Associated Press

SEATTLE — Russell Wilson found backup tight end Cooper Helfet for a 20-yard catch-and-run touchdown late in the third quarter, SteSeahawks 19 ven Hauschka kicked four field goals and Cardinals 3 the Seattle Seahawks handed the Arizona Cardinals their second loss of the season, 19-3 on Sunday.

Wilson was sacked a season-high seven times by Arizona’s ultra-aggressive defense and the assortment of blitzes they called to confuse and fluster the Seahawks quarterback. But when Seattle (7-4) needed a scoring drive, after squandering advantageous field position throughout the game, Wilson delivered.

BROWNS 26, FALCONS 24 In Atlanta, Brian Hoyer shook off three interceptions, leading the Cleveland Browns down the field in the final minute to set up Billy Cundiff’s 37-yard field goal as time expired to beat the Atlanta Falcons.

Taking advantage of the last of Hoyer’s picks, the Falcons drove for Matt Bryant’s 53-yard field goal with 44 seconds remaining to seize the lead.

PATRIOTS 34, LIONS 9 In Foxborough, Mass., Tom Brady threw for 349 yards and two touchdowns in a pass-heavy offense against the NFL’s stingiest rushing defense and the New England Patriots stretched their winning streak to seven games with a victory over the Detroit Lions.

The Patriots led 24-6 at halftime as Brady repeatedly found wide-open receivers while the Lions struggled on offense. For the sec-

ond straight game, Detroit failed to score a touchdown.

PACKERS 24, VIKINGS 21 In Minneapolis, Eddie Lacy rushed for 125 yards on 25 carries, both season highs to help Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers hang on against the Minnesota Vikings.

Lacy scored twice, on a run in the first quarter and a catch in the fourth.

Then, he rumbled through the line for two first downs to drain the clock after the Vikings (4-7) cut the lead to three with 3:23 remaining.

EAGLES 43, TITANS 24 In Philadelphia, Josh Huff returned the opening kickoff 107 yards, LeSean McCoy ran for 130 yards and the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Tennessee Titans.

Huff’s return was the longest in franchise history and the 10th non-offensive touchdown for Philadelphia this season.

BENGALS 22, TEXANS 13 In Houston, Andy Dalton threw for 233 yards and a touchdown and A.J. Green had 121 yards receiving on a career-high 12 receptions to give the Cincinnati Bengals a win over the Houston Texans.

The Bengals (7-3-1) led throughout, but Houston (5-6) cut the lead to three points late in the third quarter before Cincinnati tacked on two field goals in the fourth quarter to secure the win.

COLTS 23, JAGUARS 3 In Indianapolis, T.Y. Hilton celebrated the birth of his first child with a 73-yard TD catch, spurring a second-half turnaround that allowed Indianapolis to pull away from Jacksonville.

Andrew Luck was 21 of 32 for 253 yards

with one score, but his streak of consecutive 300-yard games ended at eight — one short of Drew Brees’ NFL record.

BEARS 21, BUCCANEERS 13 In Chicago, Matt Forte rushed for two touchdowns in the third quarter, and the Chicago Bears beat Lovie Smith and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Jay Cutler threw a 2-yard TD pass to Alshon Jeffery as the Bears (5-6) scored 21 straight points to erase a 10-0 halftime deficit. Forte had a 13-yard run that put Chicago ahead to stay, and then added a 1-yard plunge that made it 21-10.

CHARGERS 27, RAMS 24 In San Diego, Marcus Gilchrist intercepted Shaun Hill at the goal line with 56 seconds left to preserve the San Diego Chargers’ victory against the St. Louis Rams that helped tighten the AFC West race.

Gilchrist jumped the route as Hill tried to force a pass to Kenny Britt, who also was covered by Shareece Wright, on second-and-goal from the 4. Hill had beaten Gilchrist on a 7-yard TD pass to Stedman Bailey with 2:04 left that pulled the Rams within three points.

49ERS 17, REDSKINS 13 In Santa Clara, Calif., Carlos Hyde ran for a go-ahead 4-yard touchdown with 2:59 remaining, and San Francisco barely squeaked by the lowly Washington Redskins with a win that kept them in the thick of the playoff chase.

A fourth-down conversion in their own territory away from losing, the Niners finally capitalized with a rare touchdown in the final period on the way to their third straight victory.

Broncos: Miami puts up hard fight in loss Continued from Page B-1 The Broncos needed it after Tannehill drove the Dolphins (6-5) on another scoring drive, hitting Landry from a yard out with 1:34 left. Lamar Miller’s 2-point dive made it a threepoint game.

The Dolphins’ onside kick was recovered by — who else?

— Anderson, who sealed the game with a 26-yard run that could have been longer had he not slid so the Broncos could get in victory formation.

“You just have to give it up to the big boys up front. They took so much heat the outside and the media all week,” said Anderson, who added 28 yards on four catches.

Manning became the third player in NFL history with

touchdown passes in 50 consecutive games, joining Drew Brees (54) and Tom Brady (52). He threw for 257 yards on 28-of-35 passing.

Emmanuel Sanders led the way with nine catches for 125 yards, and Thomas finished with 10 catches for 87 yards, failing to match Calvin “Megatron” Johnson’s NFL record of eight straight 100-yard games.

His consolation was three touchdowns.

“Nah,” Thomas said he asked if he was disappointed. “… I just wanted to win the game.

I had a decent game, helped the team. The main thing is we won the game.”

Tannehill (26 of 36 for 227 yards with three TDs) kept the Dolphins a step ahead much of the afternoon.

Miami went ahead 28-17 on Tannehill’s 5-yard TD toss to Landry after Isaiah Burse fumbled a punt at his own 12.

Manning drove the Broncos downfield and found Thomas from 5 yards out, then hit Sanders with the 2-point pass to pull Denver to 28-25 with 14:09 remaining.

“I thought the best thing our team did was we stayed pretty calm,” Manning said. “We just had a real calm demeanor the entire game. Everybody did.

And that definitely proved to be a key factor late in the game.”

The only time the Broncos lost their cool came when Brandon McManus clanked a 33-yard field goal try off the right upright after Manning had tripped on third-and-1 from the 7 for his only sack.

His teammates could hardly hide their anguish. On the sideline, center Manny Ramirez ripped his helmet off and hollered as Thomas slammed his helmet to the ground.

“To come away with no points was really disappointing,” Manning said, “and once again it could have been that ‘this is not our day’ type of mentality. We just said, ‘Hey, it’s obviously going to be a dogfight.’ ” Ultimately, it was the Dolphins who would lament the loss, the Broncos’ balance having thrown them off.

“They’re known for throwing the ball all over the place,” cornerback Brent Grimes said.

“They had a plan to run the ball and control the game like that.

They did a good job of it.”

Cowboys: Manning interception crucial Continued from Page B-1 was eliminated from division contention.

Thanks to Beckham’s incredible onehanded catch, one of the rookie’s two firsthalf touchdowns, New York built a 21-10 halftime lead.

But Romo hit Cole Beasley with a short pass that he turned into a 45-yard score, and the quarterback’s 31-yarder to an uncovered Bryant put Dallas on top for the first time.

Beckham left briefly in the fourth quarter with a back problem, but returned for the next series. He wasn’t involved in any key plays on that TD drive to retake the lead, and Beckham finished with 10 receptions for 146 yards.

League rushing leader DeMarco Murray managed his 10th 100-yard game this season with 121 on 24 carries for Dallas.

The Cowboys didn’t get much going after falling behind 21-10 until reserve receiver Beasley took a short pass, eluded

a tackle by Zack Bowman and sped untouched to the end zone midway in the third quarter.

That made the hundreds of Cowboys fans on hand get loud, and their cheers reached a crescendo when Manning overthrew a wide-open Preston Parker deep in Dallas territory. Instead of a likely New York score, Church ran back the interception 45 yards.

Four plays later, Romo hit an open Bryant and he squeezed into the end zone for the Cowboys’ first lead.

Beckham’s right-handed stab of Manning’s 43-yard rainbow pass could be the catch of the year. The rookie, who regularly practices such receptions, outreached veteran cornerback Brandon Carr at the goal line and tumbled backward into the end zone to make it 14-3.

“I have seen him make catches like that all the time [in practice],” coach Tom Coughlin said.

That catch already was dominating

highlight reels by halftime and was his second TD of the game. The 80-yard drive to Beckham’s first touchdown marked the second straight week the Giants got into the end zone on their opening possession after going 20 games without doing so.

Dallas’ offense hardly was in awe following Beckham’s one-hander. Romo guided the Cowboys 77 yards and used a shovel pass to Jason Witten — yes, the tight end used two hands — from the 4 immediately after Beckham’s stunner.

So the kid from LSU went right back to overwhelming the Cowboys. He made three catches for 32 yards on New York’s next series, including a spin move that would make a figure skater proud. Andre Williams concluded that 80-yard march with a 3-yard run for a 21-10 lead.

In the first half alone, Beckham had eight catches for 125 yards, while Manning went 14 of 16 for 191 yards. But the second half belonged to Dallas.

Texas: Two injured Lobos to be examined Continued from Page B-1 little while to adjust, and then our guys picked it up another level defensively and it helped in transition,” Kennedy said.

The Lobos seemed to be in control early, but were hampered by turnovers, finishing with 16 for the game. New Mexico’s shooting also deteriorated in the second half and was just 34 percent by game’s end.

“We were getting wide open great shots and I knew at one point we’d make them,” Kennedy said. “You just don’t win with good coaches. You gotta have good players.”

Deshawn Delaney led New

Mexico with 13 points. Hugh Greenwood added 10. Edwards had eight points before leaving with his injury late in the second half.

Jordan Goodman followed his 19-point performance in a win over George Mason on Friday by playing just 17 minutes and scoring five points with one rebound. Neal said his time was limited because he didn’t show enough intensity at the defensive end.

It was the culmination of a tough week for the Lobos, whose two losses seemed less of a detriment than the injuries to Neal and Edwards. Both will be re-examined once UNM returns to Albuquerque on

Monday night.

Texas A&M didn’t take its first lead of the game until the 13:41 mark of the second half, on a dunk by House.

The Aggies picked up the pace and extended that lead to 15 — 61-46 — with less than four minutes to play thanks to a 27-12 run that included eight points by House.

The Lobos weren’t able to respond after that.

“It was two tales of two halves. … We didn’t answer their intensity,” New Mexico coach Craig Neal said. “They didn’t take their punch in the second half to respond. And we really couldn’t get anything going. You can’t continually

lose four-minute game after four-minute game and think you’re gonna win. It starts adding up.”

New Mexico had the early offensive flow, using an 11-0 run to open up a 22-10 lead late in the first half.

Delaney had six of his 10 first-half points during the spurt.

Texas A&M trailed by just five at the break, though, after getting 18 points from its reserves in the opening 20 minutes.

The Lobos fell to 204-129 overall against schools from the state of Texas.

Switzerland wins Davis Cup final LILLE, France — Roger Federer defeated Richard Gasquet 6-4, 6-2, 6-2 in the first reverse singles match Sunday as Switzerland won the Davis Cup final against France by taking an unassailable 3-1 lead.

The 17-time Grand Slam champion gave Switzerland its first title in the team competition and added the only big trophy in tennis missing from his collection.

The 33-year-old Federer and Stan Wawrinka had put Switzerland into a 2-1 lead Saturday with a straight sets defeat of Gasquet and Julien Benneteau in the doubles.

Federer was thrashed by Gael Monfils in his first singles match after struggling with a bad back but recovered as the weekend progressed and did not face a break point on Sunday.

“I’m happy I was able to stay calm and play a good match, and I’m really happy for the guys in the team, everybody worked incredibly hard to get me match ready,” Federer said.

“Stan has put in so much effort over the years and played an unbelievable weekend that gave me the opportunity today.

I’m very much aware of that, this one is for the boys.”

It took 15 years for the former top-ranked Federer to achieve glory in the Davis Cup after making his debut in the prestigious event in 1999. He fell on his knees after converting his first match point and laid face down on the court before hugging team captain Severin Luthi and his teammates.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Sister-in-law has a double standard Dear Annie: My sister-in-law and I exchange baby-sitting for our young children. I have three under the age of 5, and she has two. It is mutually beneficial except for one thing: If the kids break something at her house, she demands that I pay for it. Recently this included getting her couch professionally cleaned after all of the children, not just mine, drew on it with pens. I was fine with footing the bill, until something at my house was damaged, and her response was to laugh it off and say, “Well, you should have been watching them!”

I do not appreciate the double standard. Is there some kind of rule as to who should pay for the damage? — Stuck with the Bill No Matter What in Oregon Dear Stuck: If one child is unusually destructive or breaks something particularly valuable, the parents should make an effort to reimburse for damages. However, if all of the children play in roughly the same way, it’s simply the cost of doing business. Discuss this with your sister-in-law and agree that you either split the costs or no one pays. If necessary, put it in writing.

Dear Annie: I have a severe allergy to cats. I went through a five-year course of allergy shots and take an antihistamine every day, but I can still have a reaction when visiting the home of a friend with a cat. Many people don’t truly understand how severe the problem is. I would like to make a few suggestions: u Please don’t be offended if I ask you about your cats, am hesitant to visit your home or need to leave early. This isn’t personal. It is a medical issue. u Many people vacuum just before an allergic friend arrives.

This actually makes the problem worse because it sprays allergens into the air that hang suspended for hours. Instead, vacuum hours earlier, and then open all of the windows to air out the house.

Consider purchasing a HEPAfiltered vacuum. And please realize that the more people present the more the allergens are stirred up. I am unlikely to want to attend a large party in your home. Again, it’s not personal. u Please provide a surface to sit

on that has not been previously occupied by the cat. Consider having the visit in an uncarpeted area. And keep the cat confined the whole time. I know your cat is adorable, but I can’t have it rub against me. u I appreciate your invitations to reciprocate, but I am very uncomfortable in your home.

Instead, you can “host” by bringing dinner to me. u If you have an allergic friend or relative and you do not currently have a cat, consider adopting something else. If you get a cat, expect visits to your house to diminish. And consider the message you are sending to that friend or relative.

I hope this helps people understand that we cat-allergic people are just trying to maintain friendships the best we can. It would be a lovely gesture if our friends could accommodate this one part of who we are that is so inconvenient. — Trying My Best Dear Trying: We know some folks will decide you are too much trouble to accommodate.

But for those who value these relationships, this will help them understand how difficult and dangerous it is for you to be exposed to cats. We like the idea of friends bringing dinner to your place (or maybe inviting you to join them at a restaurant) to reciprocate. We hope they will.

Dear Annie: The letter from “Unforgiven,” who inadvertently left her brother’s stepson out of her father’s obituary, touched my heart.

May I suggest that she offer to publish an anniversary notice in the newspaper, in which the stepson is not only mentioned, but invited to participate in writing? If that doesn’t soothe the sister-in-law, there’s more to the issue. — Sheila in Massachusetts Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Please email your questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or write to: Annie’s Mailbox, c/o Creators Syndicate, 737 3rd Street, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You could be taken aback by everything that is happening around you.

Tonight: Return calls and emails.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You’ll be able to get whatever you want right now, but understand that cost might be an issue. Tonight: Treat yourself.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Your high energy will spur you to embrace what lies ahead. Tame a need to be glorified, as this characteristic will not serve you well. Tonight: Maintain a sense of humor.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Others seek you out. You love being around people, but you could have a personal matter in your head that is draining you.

Tonight: Take a muchneeded personal night.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH With so much going on, you might need to zero in on your priorities. Some of you will have meetings to schedule; others will have personal matters to handle. Tonight: Be where your friends are.
