SF officials: Possible 1 plane victim run over SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — San Francisco fire officials say there is a possibility that one of the two teenage girls killed in a plane crash at San Francisco International Airport was struck by an emergency vehicle.

Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White and Assistant Deputy Chief Dale Carnes both raised the possibility at a news conference with first responders on Monday.

San Mateo County Coroner Robert Foucrault earlier said his office is conducting an autopsy to determine whether one of the victims was run over and killed by a responding vehicle.

He said his staff was notified of the possibility by senior San Francisco Fire Department officials at the crash site on Saturday. More than 180 people were sent to hospitals following the crash.

US consumer borrowing increases during May WA S H I N G T O N ( A P ) — Americans increased their borrowing in May at the fastest pace in a year. Borrowing in the category that includes credit cards reached its highest point since the fall of 2010.

Increased borrowing can be a sign that consumers are feeling more confident.

The Federal Reserve says consumers increased their borrowing by $19.6 billion in May compared with April. That was the biggest jump since a $19.9 billion increase in May 2012.

Total borrowing reached a record $2.84 trillion.

The category that includes credit card use rose $6.6 billion, also the largest gain in a year.

Credit card debt reached $847.1 billion, the highest level since September 2010 but still below the 2008 peak.

Borrowing on autos and student loans increased $13 billion.

Silva: US health care battle will continue

Perry decides not to seek re-election SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Gov. Rick Perry was a champion of fiercely conservative social activism long before the tea party was born. He oversaw the “Texas Miracle” job-creation boom and became the most powerful Texas governor since Reconstruction.

But nationally, Perry is better known for his ‘oops’ presidential debate brain freeze or for not opposing forcefully enough the notion that Texas could secede from the union. For many outside the Lone Star State, he’s a political punch line on par with Dan Quayle — if he’s known at all.

Now, the longest-serving governor in Texas history is quitting his day job. Perry announced Monday that he won’t seek a fourth full term in office

The structure of the modern American family is changing in more diverse ways than some may assume.

According to the New Family Structure Study, a national survey conducted by the University of Texas, there are approximately 580,000 same-sex households in the U.S., and of those households, 98,600 have children.

I-Shan Yang, a third-year doctoral student in marriage and family therapy, said based on the findings of a survey she administered to 140 participants online, the new generation of gay and lesbian adults are

Santorum and ex-Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee — both unsuccessful presidential hopefuls who have remained national conservative forces.

Perry never lost an election during his 27-year political career and became a near-instant front-runner when he strapped on his signature cowboy boots and strode into the race for the GOP presidential nomination in August 2011.

But his White House run flamed out spectacularly, culminating in a debate in Michigan where Perry remembered that he’d pledged to shutter the U.S. Departments of Commerce and Education but forgot the third one, the Department of Energy. Quipped late-night comedian Jimmy Fallon: “It turns out

George Bush was actually the smart Texas governor.”

It wasn’t the first time Perry’s mouth had gotten him into trouble. Ending a television interview in 2005, Perry smirked at the camera and signed off: “Adios, mofo.”

Asked about secession after a tea party rally in April 2009, Perry quipped: “If Washington continues to thumb their nose at the American people, you know, who knows what may come out of that?”

Those incidents, however, did little to lessen Perry’s influence in Texas, where he is considered the most powerful governor since the Civil War. PERRY continued on Page 2 ➤➤

more open to having children.

“I just want to see if there is actually a better parenting out there,” she said, “different kinds of parenting that people try to ignore, because in mainstream media, a lot of times, we hear that it is dysfunctional.”

From the survey and interviews she has conducted, Yang said same-sex couples tend to be more supportive of one another than heterosexual couples.

“They have less support to each other,” she said, referring to heterosexual couples, “but with same-sex couples what I found is that for them it’s like constantly giving each other feedback on parenting issues.”

School of Pharmacy ranks nationally Texas Tech Health Sciences Center School of Pharmacy was ranked among the top 25 pharmaceutical research programs in the country.

The American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy ranked the school 24th out of about 125 accredited pharmacy schools in total funding, Quentin Smith, School of Pharmacy dean, said.

The association, he said, conducts an assessment of a school’s receipt of grant funding each year.

“They kind of rank you on three basic areas,” Smith said. “The (National Institute of Health), which is the big federal funding and other sources of federal funding and then state funding.”

According to a news release, the

school was ranked 35th in NIH funding, seventh in other sources of federal funding, ninth in non-federal funding and received more than $6.2 million in total funding.

Receiving the ranking, Smith said, is a source of pride to the institution.

“It’s a source of pride, it’s recognition by our peers and our sister schools of the hard work people have done to submit those grants and get them awarded,” he said, “and it’s very promising for us because it really shows the amount of time and effort the faculty are putting in to successfully try to fight these diseases.”

next year.

“The time has come to pass on the mantle of leadership. Today I’m announcing I will not seek re-election as governor of Texas,” Perry said Monday.

“I will spend the next 18 months working to create more jobs, opportunity and innovation I will actively lead this great state. And I’ll also pray and reflect and work to determine my own future.”

But with another presidential run being speculated, Perry may first need to concentrate on rebuilding his tattered image with non-Texans.

It was like jumping into a swimming pool.

David D. Perlmutter, the new dean of the College of Media and Communication, assumed his position July 1.

“The first day was, I guess, like jumping in the swimming pool,” he said. “There’s just a lot to absorb right away.”

Perlmutter said he has been to many college campuses, but he finds a spirit at Texas Tech he considers unique.

Tech’s spirit is innovative and entrepreneurial, something he said he does not see everywhere.

“People are really willing to think about new things, about trying something innovative and different, about trying to achieve big goals,” Perlmutter said, “and that’s very attractive to me because I think for a college of media and communication, you just can’t sit back and watch the world

pass you by.”

Perlmutter previously was the chairman of the journalism and mass communications department at the University PERLMUTTER of Iowa, but said becoming dean of the college was a fantastic opportunity.

“You have a lot more freedom of action,” he said. “There’s a lot more nimbleness about making decisions and acting upon them, less layers of approval. You’re much larger, you cover many more areas.”

Perlmutter said his connections with Tech can be traced back to the mid-1990s, where he met Billy Ross, the founding chairman of the former Department of Mass Communications at Tech, when Perlmutter was an assistant professor at Louisiana State University.

BUSINESS: 806-742-3388

“I met Billy Ross, who at one point was chair of the department here at Texas Tech,” he said. “He was an adviser to the dean of LSU, and we became friends. He was a wonderful mentor for me, gave me some very good advice early in my career.”

Perlmutter said his goals include improving the college’s recruitment and retention.

Jerry Hudson, former founding dean of the College of Media and Communication, said he thinks Perlmutter’s plan to focus on retention is a good one.

“I think the university is concerned and has an initiative to increase enrollment to 40,000 by 2020,” Hudson said, “and one of the simplest ways to increase enrollment is to increase retention, and so I think that’s a good plan.”

Perlmutter said he also wants to interact with students through clubs, organizations and the dean’s council as well offer students the opportunity to speak with him by setting up an appointment.

FAX: 806-742-2434

“You’d be surprised how useful it can be to hear an undergraduate’s perspective,” he said. “I’ve had students come into my office and say ‘You know, wouldn’t it be great if we had a class on this?’ and I’ve brought it up and sometimes we’ve created classes based on undergraduate students’ suggestions.”

Perlmutter is interested in expanding CoMC’s distance education program by making sure master’s and graduate level opportunities are available widely, he said, which is something he did while at Iowa.

He said he also wants to make sure the college’s curriculum prepares students for jobs they received after graduation as well as when the industry changes by making sure students are adaptable and can add value to a company.

“We have to prepare you to always be preparing yourself,” Perlmutter said. “That is a huge difference from education 25 years ago.”

was investigating the embattled Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas, an agency which has faced a criminal investigation into an $11 million grant that was given to a private company without the proper review process — and amid questions about whether Perry donors were involved.

Perry first won a seat in the Texas Legislature as a Democrat in 1984, when Texas was still reliably blue. As the state turned deeply red, Perry shifted too. Democrats have not captured a statewide office in nearly 20 years.

The opposition party insists, though, that a booming Hispanic population means it’s only a matter of time before Texas switches back — a notion Perry has dismissed as a “pipe dream.”

It didn’t look so far-fetched last week, however, when Democratic state Sen. Wendy Davis was on her feet for 12-plus hours as Democrats used the filibuster to help block sweeping new restrictions on abortion in Texas. The filibuster made Davis a national political sensation, prompting many supporters to urge her to run for governor next year.

Perry’s response was swift. He not only immediately called lawmakers back to work for an extra special session to approve the law, he also suggested Davis should have understood the value of each human life because of her history as a former teenage mother who went on to graduate from Harvard Law School.

“What if her mom had said, “I just can’t do this. I don’t want to do this?,” Perry asked. “At that particular point in time I think it becomes very personal.”

she said.

All the people Yang said she has interviewed so far in her study are in committed, long-term relationships.

She said most of the people she interviewed had been together for more than five years before considering adoption.

“Because it’s more difficult for them to have children,” Yang said, “they tend to postpone this until they think that they are very stable.”

However, some couples do not get their children from adoption.

Yang said many of the gay people she surveyed got their children through reproductive means with one partner becoming pregnant using a sperm donor or a surrogate.

Some gay couples also have children from a previous heterosexual relationship, such as Mary Helen Gallegos, who said she is in a lesbian relationship with a woman who has two children from a previous marriage.

“It’s a little different,” she said, “because she has never actually been in a gay relationship, but little by little they are getting used to the idea.” ➤➤news@dailytoreador.com

From the moment Perlmutter accepted the job, Chambers said he has reached out to faculty to get a feel for what was happening.

Since Perlmutter has been at Tech, Chambers said they have had the opportunity to meet.

“We’ve been able to meet already the last couple of days and talk about some different things,” Chambers said, “talk about some strategic plans that we want to start getting input on, and to start thinking about what we’re going to be doing in the short-term and long-term for the college.”

Chambers said he is excited about Perlmutter’s innovation and fresh eyes and said he thinks Perlmutter will continue building on Hudson’s traditions as well as moving the program forward.

“What Texas Tech is striving to be,” Chambers said, “I think Dean Perlmutter is really going to help take us there.” ➤➤egardner@dailytoreador.com

US health care battle will continue A

ll other national issues facing the country have been the topic for debate on and off throughout the years, but one major issue still holds the title of the GOP’s Most Wanted. Ever since its creation and presentation in 2008, the Republican Party has waged war on Obamacare; vowing to repeal and rid the country of it as soon as they could. However, their tactics on attacking Obamacare have not been completely effective, and not a lot has changed since the early days of the war.

Of all the major national issues controlling the 2012 presidential election, health care seemed to be the signature issue. For President Barack Obama, Obamacare is the defining accomplishment of his 20082012 presidency. So for Mitt Romney and the GOP, of course, this was one of the key points used in his 2012 campaign. As part of the republican platform, repealing Obamacare is one of the more focused goals of the Republican Party.

Ever since it was signed into law in

Jonathan Silva March 2010, Obamacare has been seen as a controversial law by many Americans.

With pressure from the Republican Party and other non-supporters, it was a shock to see the constitutionality upheld by the Supreme Court in June 2012.

But what is all the controversy over? In a Gallup poll taken in June 2012, 52 percent of Americans said they would repeal part, if not all, of the law. Similarly, in a 2012 Reuters/Ipsos poll, 56 percent of people surveyed were against the new Obamacare plan. Of course Romney’s campaigning and GOP propaganda has done its best to demonize this new health care plan and paint it out as exactly what America doesn’t

need. There are many aspects to the new health care plan that don’t make much sense at all or seem necessary. Open any pamphlet or watch any ad on Obamacare and you’ll hear about how much it burdens businesses to provide health care coverage to their employees or how it drains $716 billion out of Medicare to fund itself. But, the real problem people and the Republican Party have with the new health care plan is the mandate. Nobody likes to be told what to do, much less buy something they may not be able to afford. Fail to comply with this mandate and one faces the penalty of an annual fee, which gets thrown up to the IRS, and nobody likes the IRS. With already low approval ratings for the IRS amid the whole scandal, I don’t see this plan gaining much more favor.

When the Supreme Court upheld Obamacare, it was upheld not as a regulation of commerce, but as a tax. Another tax Obama promised he would not burden on the middle class. Of all the points the GOP has been attacking Obamacare on, I feel they haven’t pushed this fact as much as they should. The only thing Americans pull out of this new plan is universal health care, and of course that is a great idea many people would agree on. The problem then lies on the failure for Americans to fully understand, or have some understanding, of what Obamacare consists of and how it affects us, the medical community and our economy. If Romney and the GOP would have hit harder on the fact that the new plan is a tax burden, I feel people would have a better understanding of why Republicans are

so against this new health care plan.

As mentioned earlier, this is probably the highlight to be recognized in Obama’s presidency, which is very surprising that this was all he managed to do during his first term, a term where his party controlled Congress yet still managed to claim the title of “The do nothing 112th.” Romney made a good effort in pointing out that in Obama’s first two years in office, during a Democratic Party majority congress, he didn’t get anything major passed or even come up with a balanced budget in more than 1,000 days. This has got to be a red flag to Obama supporters and many undecided voters. Like many Americans, I’m disappointed to see that in these past four years in office, Obamacare is all Obama has to show for himself.

Three years out from the next presidential election, the GOP is still determined to kill Obamacare with promises that the next president will be Republican and will execute these promises. I do not know what issues will be facing America in the next three years, but I don’t doubt Obamacare will still be a dominating issue. As new phases of Obamacare begin to take effect, we may see a lessening focus on its eradication as people accept the new policies. However, if things turn sour in a hurry, as many —including myself — believe, we could find ourselves right back in November 2012 with candidates finely split between pro-Obamacare and anti-Obamacare.
