Border Patrol: Leave law enforcement to the pros RIO GRANDE CITY (AP) — Not long ago, the U.S. Border Patrol was the only law enforcement agency monitoring the mesquite thickets and sugarcane fields along the Rio Grande, and an agent’s challenge was to distinguish between an exhausted immigrant and a threat.

Now the thick brush is teeming with hundreds of state troopers, National Guardsmen and civilian militia members, all heavily armed and often wearing tactical vests and camouflage.

Since illegal immigration spiked in the Rio Grande Valley this summer, the Border Patrol has dispatched more agents, the Texas Department of Public Safety has sent more troopers and Gov. Rick Perry deployed as many as 1,000 guardsmen to the area. Officials have refused to release exact numbers, but Texas is spending $1.3 million a week on state troopers and about $12 million a month on the guardsmen.

Field communication among the various armed agents is fragmented, and a recent friendly fire incident involving a militia member prompted the Border Patrol this week to urge that law enforcement be left to the professionals.

Meanwhile, in border communities, some locals fear that the increased security presence is more of a threat.

Students in fatal wreck during weekend On Friday night, two Texas Tech students died on their way home to Round Rock.

Kylie and Ryan Murphy, brother and sister, were killed in a collision with another vehicle Friday driving from Lubbock to Austin, according to an article from the Austin American-Statesman.

Maddi Cherry, a sophomore political science major from Coppell, said Kylie Murphy was a member of Alpha Phi and Ryan Murphy was pledging Sigma

Nu this semester.

“I know he and his sister were driving home and they got in a car accident,” she said. “Not drunk driving or anything.”

Braden Givens, a freshman engineering major from Tyler, said he was pledging with Ryan Murphy this semester.

“I started to get to know Ryan last week and was looking forward to getting to know him better over these next four years,” Givens said. “I didn’t know him for very long, but it was truly a blessing

to call him my brother.”

Alpha Phi and Sigma Nu had meetings on Saturday to come together as a chapter during this difficult time, Cherry said.

Other Greek organizations have come together to offer Alpha Phi and Sigma Nu support, she said.

Givens said Sigma Nu had people come to the lodge and speak with them as a sort of counseling to help the brotherhood and support them with whatever needed.

Givens and Cherry both said a candlelight vigil will be hosted Monday night between the Sigma Nu and Alpha Phi lodges on Greek Circle in the parking lot.

Anyone is welcome to attend the vigil, Givens said, to support both houses as well as offer a hand to those mourning for Kylie Ryan Murphy.

“Ryan was full of life and always kept a smile on his face no matter what,” Givens said. “He will be missed.” ➤➤dcopeland@dailytoreador.com

Design students create custom garments for conjoined twins

Memoir puts abortion back in Texas governor’s race AUSTIN (AP) — Texas Democrat Wendy Davis launched her longshot bid for governor by filibustering her state’s tough new restrictions on abortion, and now she’s entering the last two months of the race talking about undergoing the procedure herself.

The revelation by Davis in her upcoming memoir that she ended a pregnancy in the 1990s drew sympathy from top Democrats and Republicans on Saturday, including her opponent, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, who said he grieved for her family and the loss of life.

But the abortion she had for medical reasons nearly 20 years ago could nonetheless complicate campaign crunch time for Davis, who has struggled to make up ground against heavily favored Abbott with the Nov. 4 Election Day looming.

“It’s back to the future,” said Bill Miller, a Texas-based political consultant who has mostly worked for Republicans but calls himself a friend to Davis. “I saw this issue as giving her a great start, but it’s not going to give her a great finish.”

The Associated Press purchased an advanced copy of “Forgetting to be Afraid,” which hits bookstores Tuesday.

ABOVE RIGHT: EMILY Charlton, a senior apparel design and manufacturing and general studies dual major from Bastrop, works on a christening gown for conjoined twins Knatalye Hope and Adeline Faith Mata on Friday inside the Human Sciences Center.

From a Texas Tech dress to bright and colorful onesies, conjoined twins Knatalye Hope and Adeline Faith Mata will have multiple clothing options because of two design students.

Nicole Peacock, a junior apparel design and manufacturing major from Allen, and Emily Charlton, a senior apparel design and manufacturing and general studies dual major from Bastrop, created several outfits for the twins, whose family is originally from Lubbock. The garments will be shipped today to Houston, where the Mata twins await surgery to separate them.

“With the babies, the parents are probably anticipating the future and worrying about that,” Sharran Parkinson, chairperson of the Department of Design, said. “It’s so hard for them. By having the clothing, it helps them to live in the now,

enjoy the present and have these beautiful outfits for their daughters.”

Parkinson said she was watching television coverage last spring about the Lubbock conjoined twins when she thought it could be a project for design students.

The department wanted to make garments for the infants because their clothing options were likely limited, she said. The College of Human Sciences funded a trip to Houston for two students to meet the family and take measurements.

“Originally we were just thinking it would be a few items, maybe a christening gown, for them,” she said. “Then Nicole really got excited about it.

Not only did she design some original garments, but she also went to Target and found some darling little outfits to configure and make into something.”

Peacock said she met the Mata family in June.

Parents to be recognized with award Tech promoting on-campus safety Parents or guardians are often involved in their child’s college education, and Texas Tech Parent and Family Relations is recognizing the significant impact parents make in a student’s life with the 2014 Parent of the Year Award.

Pamela Carrizales, unit coordinator for Parent and Family Relations, said the program was restarted last year and received a positive response.

“We received between 25 and 30 submissions last year,” she said. “We actually chose five winners because we didn’t just want to pinpoint one family.”

Students are able to nominate grandparents this year, Carrizales said, because grandparents can also be impactful in a student’s life.

Nominations are composed of an essay outlining how a parent or grandparent has impacted the student’s life, according to the Parent and Family Relations website, and they can be submitted electronically through the OrgSync website until noon on Sept. 26.

“In the essay, it’s good for the student to give examples of what their loved one has done,” Carrizales said. “Maybe there was a circumstance that was detrimental or had a big impact and a parent helped the student get through it. Students ADVERTISING: 806-742-3384

should try to relate something that is meaningful and shows that their parent stands out.”

A committee reviews the essays in the week following the submission deadline, she said, and it focuses on the parent’s involvement in the student’s life as opposed to grammar.

The winning parents will be recognized at the Tech football game on Oct. 11, Carrizales said, and the families will be given their award during a pregame ceremony.

“It is really rewarding to call the parents and tell them that their student nominated them,” she said. “Most of the times the parent didn’t know their student had nominated them, and last year many parents were really excited to hear about the award.”

For the parents who are not selected, Carrizales said, they are sent the essays their students wrote so they still know they are appreciated.

The number of awards varies each year, she said, and students can find more guidelines on the Parent and Family Relations website.

“I think this is a way for students to express their appreciation for their parent,” Carrizales said. “I know their parents have done a lot for them, and this is a small way to say thank you.” ➤➤jromero@dailytoreador.com

Texas Tech is promoting safety on campus during the month of September and will be collaborating with the National Institutes of Health’s National Biosafety Stewardship Month.

The main event is Safety@TTU, according to the Office of the Vice President for Research’s website.

This event was created by the Office of the Vice President for Research, according to the website.

Robert V. Duncan, vice president for research, said he believes safety is vital in all different areas at Tech.

Safety@TTU has been on the Tech campus since August of 2013, according to the website.

Safety has been promoted and focused more on campus since the last safety incident in 2012, according to the website, where a student nearly lost his sight from not wearing his safety goggles.

The event also has a blog on the Tech website, and a Facebook and Twitter account to further the cause, according to the website.

All explain the importance of safety and also

promote safety-training activities happening on campus and in September.

The majority of the safety training will be happening online and information will come out through the blog during this month, Duncan said.

Faculty members and students alike are able to participate in training. If anyone is interested in face to face training, they are able to contact Environmental Health and Safety, according to the website.

Online training will consist of instructions to promote safety in organizations around campus, according to the website.

Each group will have to learn about safety awareness, respiratory protection and biological and chemical training, according to the website.

There will be separate training for each group that needs tutorials for a specific area.

Staton Mayfield, a junior restaurant hotel and institutional management major from Blanco, said as a RHIM major it could help learning about certain safety issues in the work place.

The Lubbock Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors supports the development of a fair Mobile Food Unit Ordinance by the city of Lubbock.

Norma Johnson, vice president of the Lubbock Chamber of Commerce, said the Chamber of Commerce is giving a voice to businesses.

The Lubbock Chamber of Commerce is composed of 2,100 businesses within the city of Lubbock and promotes advocacy about issues that affect Lubbock businesses, Johnson said.

Businesses pay membership dues to be a part of the chamber, in order to use resources such as networking opportunities and to support advocacy efforts when it comes to public policy, she said.

“We had a couple of members who owned food trucks come to us and discuss what our position was do, how to do it and how not to do it.”

NIH and TTU are expecting to demonstrate important practices of safety in the different laboratories around campus.

Some groups involved in safety training range from food services, athletics, laboratories and medical buildings, according to the website.

Hannah Nguyen, a sophomore biochemistry major from Dallas, said she likes the idea of training people on campus.

“I didn’t know about the previous incident,” she said, “but I wouldn’t want to lose my sight, so I’m glad they’re training people to conduct experiments and such right.” ➤➤dcopeland@dailytoreador.com

on the issue, and wanted to see if the chamber was interested in advocating for what they’re fighting for, which is to get an ordinance revised and allow for more freedom to regulate food trucks,” she said.

The city of Lubbock current ordinances addressing food trucks are more restrictive than regulations in other cities, according to a press release from the city of Lubbock.

The restrictions were placed in 2012, and mandate food trucks can only operate as vending businesses and in industrial zones, Johnson said.

Food truck owners have a petition going around the city in an effort to get the city of Lubbock to revise food truck regulations, she said.

“We are trying to advocate for having those regulations revised to allow for more flexibility in terms of where food trucks can operate,” Johnson said.

The goal of the chamber is to completely revise the current restric-

tions and create a comprehensive policy that affects the operation of food trucks in Lubbock, she said.

The revision would also address restrictions that are not currently in place, she said.

“In the revision of restrictions we would address the distance the trucks can operate from the existing restaurants, parking regulations, safety regulations, and things like that,” she said.

Victoria Patton, a freshman social work major from Carlsbad, New Mexico, said the expansion of Lubbock food trucks would be beneficial for the city.

Having looser food truck restrictions would be beneficial for the business, she said.

“Getting rid of certain food truck restrictions will be helpful because they’ll be able to get more business and revenue,” she said. “They’ll also reach more people, and citizens will appreciate having more variety and the convenience of quick service.”

UPCOMING CHANGES • Decrease the distances trucks can operated in reference to other busininesses • Change parking reguations • Change safety regulations

Providing more freedom for food trucks within Lubbock is an opportunity for the expansion of the food truck industry, Patton said.

College students and Lubbock residents want to be able to grab something quick when they are pressed for time. Food trucks are convenient when dealing with a busy schedule, she said.

“Having more freedom for food trucks, and just having more food trucks within Lubbock would definitely be something interesting to see,” she said. “Fast and easy service is helpful when you are worried about time or you have places to be.” ➤➤bcooney@dailytoreador.com

Students choose credit cards in college

By ALEXIS NELSON Staff Writer

Texas Tech students deal with indecision and a multitude of bank options when it comes to acquiring their first credit card.

The first decision students must face when getting a credit card is deciding whether or not they want to go with a national or local bank, Jacob Hubik, member service and loan manager at Tech Federal Credit Union, said.

“Well, the obvious benefit with dealing with a local bank like us as opposed to a company based out of who knows where, is we’re going to be able to help you here as opposed to you calling an 800 number,” he said.

While the credit union has a location on Tech campus by the West Village Residence Hall, Prosperity Bank has a location in the Student Union Building, Brad Young, lobby manager and banking officer at Prosperity Bank, said.

“The biggest benefit is us being on campus,” he said. “If someone has a question, we’re here Monday through Friday.”

The ability to meet with someone face to face is much better, he said.

The ability to call a national bank at any time or walk into any location regardless of the state, trumps a local company, Valerie Lopez, student ambassador and personal banker for Wells Fargo, said.

“For more people that travel or

decide to move, they don’t have to stop their relationship with their local bank they have and open up a new one,” LOPEZ she said. “We have locations everywhere.”

While location and bank availability can be a couple factors to consider, qualifications are also something to take into account, Hubik said.

In order to acquire a credit card from the Federal Credit Union, a student must have a steady income in order to show their ability to pay, he said.

“We want to make sure that you’re going to pay on it each month,” he said.

The same policy is required for a credit card at Prosperity Bank, Young said.

“We have to make sure that a student has a job and has maintained that job for a certain amount of time in order to adequately support that debt they’re taking on,” he said.

The job requirement is lenient, however, at Wells Fargo, Lopez said.

“We’d prefer for our students that come in to have a job, but steady sources of money like from parents or a scholarship work too,” she said.

The amount of income a student makes can also decide the interest

rate and card dollar limit, Hubik said.

The interest rate for the Federal Credit Union varies based on credit score and income, YOUNG he said.

“Our interest rates can range anywhere from 6.99 percent to 12.99 percent,” he said.

A student who makes more money and has a higher credit score qualifies for a higher credit card limit and a lower interest rate, he said.

A credit card from Prosperity Bank has a fixed rate, Young said.

“Our credit card is a Visa, so the interest rate is 12.9 percent annually,” he said.

Wells Fargo has a credit card specifically for college students with rates that vary depending on a student’s credit score, Lopez said.

“On the lower end, our interest rates are as low as 11 percent, while it can go as high as 21 percent,” she said.

When choosing between local and national bank benefits, the most important thing to know is how to manage the card, Hubik said.

“You never want to spend more than 30 percent of your card limit.

So if your card has a $300 limit, don’t purchase more than $100 worth of stuff with it,” he said.

Being a first time credit card holder can be a big responsibility, Lopez said.

“The most important thing is getting educated about using a credit card.

It’s a major step into the real world and students should learn how to be effective with managing their money,” she said. ➤➤anelson@dailytoreador.com

Workers utilize GED program

By LIANA SOLIS Staff Writer

ALEX LUJAN, A sophomore biology major from El Paso, plays basketball Saturday in the Robert H. Ewalt Student Recreation Center.

Texas Tech Hospitality Services is working to help those who have not received a high school diploma by offering classes to staff members seeking an education.

Between 1990 and 2013, the percentage of those in the U.S. who have not received a high school diploma or equivalent was between 10 and 14 percent, according to the Institute of Education Sciences’ website.

Dolores Gonzales, staff development and training coordinator for Hospitality Services, said the program began nine years ago.

“It first started with teaching basic Spanish-to-English classes,” she said. “We had workers at our establishments who couldn’t communicate with the other staff or with the customers because they had never learned English.”

The workers were first taught five basic sentences to get them started on communicating with others, Gonzales said.

The directors of Hospitality Services were amazed at how fast the workers caught on, she said, and how well their English was with those few phrases.

“We decided then to move on to teaching them more things, like different phrases, all the items we

serve and so on,” Gonzales said.

In the past, Hospitality Services has The first two years of the program worked with Region 17 to teach the workwere repetitive, she said, because the ers getting their diplomas, Gonzales said. workers would not practice their English This semester they changed partoutside of the workplace. nerships to Literacy Lubbock, which Once they developed intermediate and offers adult education for free, accordadvanced classes for the higher-level stu- ing to the organization’s website.

“We’ve had some graduate in a year and some take much longer,” she said.

“They work at their own pace, and we work around their schedules, so it’s all up to them when they finish. It usually takes about a year to a year and half though.”

Hospitality Services also plans to try to partner with the residence halls and use community advisers as tutors for the students, Gonzales said.

The employees show up every week wanting to learn, she said.

“They are proud of the work they already do, so we are giving them something else to be proud of,” Gonzales said. “With a high school education, they have opportunities to move up to higher level jobs that they couldn’t get without an education.”

Gonzales said her dream is to one day have one of her students teach the GED classes offered through Hospitality Services.

With all the establishments and offices on campus, Hospitality Services has more than 1,000 employees, Cushman said.

“Between making sure everyone is properly trained for safety regulations and health codes, it takes a lot of focus for these programs,” he said. “But it is definitely something we want to continue doing.” ➤➤lsolis@dailytoreador.com

Students discuss iCloud leak scandal, technology security

By KORRYN MCMINN Staff Writer

Celebrities have recently fallen victim to hackers stealing their personal information and photos, including personal photos of well-known stars such as Jennifer Lawrence and Kate Upton.

At the center of this ongoing scandal is Apple Inc., who some blame for the scandal because of iCloud, which allows users to access music, photos, documents

and more from nearly any device.

“I think the situation could be avoided in the first place,” Christian Schneider, a freshman business major from Carrollton, said, “by having those celebrities not take those nudes at all.”

According to the Apple website, the same Apple ID for iCloud services and purchases can be used through iTunes, iBooks and other online stores when a user sets up an iPhone or another Apple product.

Tim Cook, Apple’s chief executive officer, said company servers were not leaked, but instead hackers gained access to the celebrities’ iCloud accounts by guessing security questions or through a phishing scam, according to the Wall Street Journal.

“Personally, I feel like Apple shouldn’t be held responsible,” Chandler Dickey, a freshman music education major from Lubbock, said. “It

Although she was nervous to take on the project, Peacock said the parents were kind and appreciative of the students. The students spent three hours with the twins.

“They were super welcoming,” she said. “One baby was asleep most of the time, and the other was awake. I love kids, so this was something I was so excited about. I still text the mom to check up on the babies.”

Although the five-month-old twins share a liver, heart lining, diaphragm and possibly intestines, doctors will likely separate them in about three months, according to an Associated Press article.

It was a unique task to conduct measurements on the girls, Peacock said.

“You would think they’d have the same measurements around their legs,” Peacock said, “but one had a more chunkier leg or a bigger head and stuff like that.

It was definitely a challenge, but it wasn’t extremely difficult. It was a fun challenge.”

Charlton said she plans to send two outfits, including a christening gown.

Making each outfit look cohesive and presentable was difficult, she said.

“There are a lot of different measurements that you wouldn’t normally have to take for one person,” Charlton said. “You have to take into account where they’re joined, which means instead of measuring from shoulder to bust, you have to measure from shoulder to joined point.”

The project improved the students’ technical abilities, Parkinson said, and challenged how they normally create garments.

Peacock will send seven outfits, she said, and the parents gave the students creative freedom when it came to the clothing. She used feminine designs and bright colors in most of her creations.

“One thing the parents really wanted was a Texas Tech outfit and a baptismal gown,” she said. “My friend works at the football facility, so she took it up there and got it signed on both sides by Kliff, which was really nice.”

As for her other designs, Peacock said she wanted both sides to match but still be unique enough so the girls had individuality despite being conjoined.

Charlton designed the christening gown to emphasize their condition, she said.

“I was excited to get to work on this,” Charlton said. “It’s quite the design problem. I feel really blessed to be involved in these tiny people’s lives.” ➤➤features@dailytoreador.com

was Jennifer Lawrence’s fault for taking the pictures in the first place.” iCloud secures user data, according to the Apple support website, by encrypting information when it is sent through the Internet, storing it in an encrypted setup and using secure tokens for verification.

Data is protected from unauthorized access while it is being transmitted or stored on devices,

according to the website.

However, Schneider said he still questions the security of iCloud because of the recent celebrity photo leak scandal.

“A good way to protect your private information is to not have it in the cloud at all,” he said. “No one understands how the cloud works.”

Although Apple denies a breach in its

system, it still raises a concern for anyone who owns an Apple product, Dickey said.

“None of the cases we have investigated has resulted from any breach in any of Apple’s systems, including iCloud,” Natalie Kerris and Tudy Muller, Apple spokespeople, said in a statement. “We are continuing to work with law enforcement to help identify the criminals involved.” ➤➤kmcminn@dailytoreador.com

the unfavorable laws that cause that to happen.

I do not support moving to a country illegally, and neither am I an immigration expert, but any person who is willing to read between the lines and do a little analysis would understand that it is in the interest of America to work toward keeping our undocumented friends here.

For instance, Stephen Gross, chief actuary of the Social Security Administration, reports that undocumented workers contribute about $15 billion annually to Social Security through payroll taxes. Meanwhile, few are eligible to receive benefits.

This figure, he notes, is devoid of the large numbers working in the shadows.

L o g i c a l l y, one does not need to be a genius nor hold a Ph.D. in mathematics to recognize that bringing the people who work in the shadows to the forefront and giving them the opportunity to work legally would greatly increase the amount being recorded in payroll taxes at the moment.

If this analysis is anything to go by, then I honestly cannot comprehend why anyone would deliberately downplay the economic gain and opt for any other radical method which is not in the best interest of this country.

To think about it, this country defines itself as a nation of immigrants. The promise in the people who come to America from every corner of the globe is what has been one of America’s greatest strengths. It keeps the workforce young, it keeps the country on the cutting edge and it has helped built the greatest economic engine the world has ever known.

border with her parents at the tender age of nine and is in the States illegally. Even though she has been here for a while, she constantly has to live with the fear of her parents being deported while they work painstakingly in the shadows to make ends meet.

While some critics may readily jump in to ostracize this intelligent lady, and others would even want her and her family deported, we should not forget that she has a special talent which, when harnessed well, would greatly benefit America in the long run. We should also bear in mind that Google, Yahoo and eBay were all founded by immigrants. As such, there is a need to put measures in place to support the vibrant yet undocumented immigrants who see America as a land of opportunity.

Making progress on immigration requires us to find common ground and move forward with a common purpose. The time has come for common sense and comprehensive immigration reforms to prevail. I am certain it will greatly benefit America in all facets to grant undocumented immigrants a pathway to citizenship while laying down the penalties that may be included in the legislation.

M

ost of us have heard about the surge in illegal immigration across America’s southern border in recent weeks, which has only exacerbated the need for a decisive, comprehensive reform of United States immigration policy. In creating this policy, it is crucial to ensure that the rule of law is respected and our security is preserved, while also recognizing the needs of the people it affects.

There are three key questions that must be addressed in the new immigration policy. First, what should be done with the millions of undocumented immigrants already in the United States? Second, how should we secure the border in order to enforce the policy? And third, how should the legal immigration system be overhauled to increase its effectiveness?

As far as the first point, it is clear if the rule of law is to be respected, the undocumented immigrants currently in this country must be deported. However noble their motivations, it is undeniable that they have broken the law and thus must face the consequences.

Furthermore, undocumented immigrants present in this country pose a potential risk to national security. There have

been a number of rumors that ISIS, drug cartels or other terrorist groups may be sending people through our southern border in hopes that they will be granted amnesty. Then they would be able to use their newly gained citizenship as a cover for potentially criminal or terroristic activity.

Finally, it is important to note that allowing individuals to circumvent the legal immigration process sets a terrible precedent.

We should be making the people trying to come into this country legally the priority because they are respecting our laws.

To answer the second question, airtight border security is critical for the success of any immigrat i o n p o l i c y.

The reason we are in such a quandary right now is because the border has not been successfully secured in the past.

As a condition for any border legislation, it is important to ensure funding is set aside to secure the border, even if this means placing the military along the border, spending more money on drones to remotely monitor the border, and/or financing more state border patrol operations. Some have even suggested building a fence stretching the entire length of the border. The best approach is probably a combination of all of these ideas.

The Constitution gives the U.S. government the authority to make laws regarding the process by which a foreigner may be naturalized, and if these laws are to be respected, it is important that funding and manpower be set aside to enforce them effectively.

Third, the legal immigration system must be modified to better meet the needs of American business and also foreigners who wish to come here to live and/ or work. Currently, the process to get a permit to work in this country, even if the individual does not want citizenship, is incredibly difficult to navigate.

As of now, many workers would

“

rather sneak in illegally, work and then leave with their money.

This is a losing situation for everyone — the worker risks being deported (or exploited in some way with no legal recourse), the employer risks being prosecuted and the government loses out on tax revenue.

In the new policy, it should be easy for a migrant worker to enter the country under supervision of an employer, work and live for a specified period, and leave, all while paying taxes to the U.S. government. Then, everyone wins.

The worker gets to send money home to his family, the employer gets the necessary labor and the government gains tax revenue. Then, once the work permit expires, the worker can return to his home country safely.

As far as the legal immigration, or naturalization, program, it is important to keep it rigorous enough to be meaningful, but on the other hand, it is ridiculous to make it so complicated that a prospective immigrant must hire a lawyer to navigate the process. Currently, the process is so expensive that many immigrants would rather risk being deported.

The new immigration solution must make the process rigorous to complete yet simple to understand. The main goal is to ensure prospective citizens are not dangerous criminals or terrorists, are willing and able to work and contribute to society, and they truly appreciate what it means to be an American.

Now more than ever, it is important to address our broken immigration system. By removing the undocumented immigrants already in the country, securing our border for the future and simplifying our legal immigration process, we can ensure that the rule of law is respected, our security is maintained and that the needs of both current citizens and would-be immigrants are met. Only then will our immigration system be successful.

The new immigration solution must make the process rigorous to complete yet simple to understand.

I

llegal immigration has been a major headache for the United States.

As the debate on what should be done about this continues unabated, and with several stakeholders proposing radical methods to tackle the situation, I am of the view that America has an unparalleled history of analyzing situations critically and coming out with effective solutions. As such, this same yardstick should be applied in dealing comprehensively with this matter.

It is quite unfortunate to note that some people propose radical methods like mass deportation and stringent conditions for undocumented immigrants as the way forward.

The reasons such people maintain for their proposition are usually based on economic grounds.

Some suggest immigrants undercut wages and take jobs that will otherwise go to Americans.

Worse the argument goes, many use services like hospitals and schools that cost taxpayers money and add to the more than $16 trillion national debt.

Even though this argument may partly hold, I strongly disagree that this is the most effective way to deal with the matter.

The fact is everyone knows they broke the rules. Some crossed the border illegally or maybe some overstayed their visas. Those are the facts and nobody disputes them. However, most of these individuals have been here for years and the overwhelming majority of these individuals are not looking for trouble, but a place where everything is possible.

In practice, if effective measures were in place to welcome these individuals, they would be committed to paying their taxes and to being responsible citizens. For the record, undocumented immigrants or workers do not intend coming to America to live in the shadows and not pay taxes. However, it is

Obama 2015 climate change accord more rhetoric than action

By ANHVINH DOANVO

The Oracle (U. SOUTh FlOrida)

Obama has unveiled his pursuit of a climate change agreement as negotiators try to create an accord to politically bind the U.S. to cut greenhouse gas emissions without Senate ratification of a new treaty.

Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell has reportedly said the accord would do “serious damage to the rule of law in America” and violates the Constitution. Republican criticisms of Obama’s violations of constitutional law may be groundless, but the accord is more likely to damage the reputation of the U.S. abroad than it is to drive us to act on climate change.

cord without the Senate, the president is trying to amend the 1992 U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), a treaty ratified by the U.S. By law, treaties may be amended without Senate approval when changes are technical in nature or derived from new interpretations. Without a supermajority in the Senate, the amendment process gives the president little room, but leaves his accord constitutionally legal.

Under the framework of the UNFCCC, developed nations are to support climate change initiatives in developing nations and enact their own initiatives while reporting their progress.

If Obama can’t get Congress to agree to real changes to our climate policy, further denouncing other countries’ policies without changes to our own will end up doing more bad than good.

President Obama needs Congress to support renewable energy funding and other national policies because without it, the U.N.’s condemnations will only change our reputation for the worse.

Narrow escape

Red Raiders score late, escape El Paso with four-point win against Miners

By EVERETT CORDER SportS Editor

With 5:05 left in the fourth quarter of Texas Tech’s first road game of the 2014 season Saturday night, the Red Raiders were down by 3 points with the ball.

Tech sophomore quarterback Davis Webb led his team down the field in less than two minutes, and capped it off with a touchdown pass to senior wide receiver Bradley Marquez to put the Red Raiders back on top.

A defensive stop on the next drive held Tech’s lead, and the Red Raiders ran out the clock to escape El Paso with a four-point win against the University of Texas at El Paso.

Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said the players were disappointed because they still aren’t playing to their true potential, but they were proud they got a win.

“We’ve got to take that and build off of it,” he said. “We haven’t come close to playing our best game and we’ve got to get a lot better PHOTO BY EMILY DE SANTOS/The Daily Toreador very quickly.”

Devine, Murphy lead Texas Tech to a win

By DAWIT HAILE Staff Writer

On Friday night, No. 10 Texas Tech (4-0-0) soccer came out with a 3-1 victory against Sam Houston State (1-4-0) at John Walker Soccer Complex.

Tech earned the win despite rain showers throughout the game.

However, weather conditions did not stop the Red Raiders from scoring goals. Junior midfielders Alli Murphy and Hannah Devine were on the same page in one facet of the game like no one else on the field – corner kicks.

The Red Raiders had a 13-0 advantage in corner kicks at the game’s conclusion, according to Tech Athletics. Only two in the first half resulted in goals for the Red Raiders.

Murphy and Devine struck their first blow in the 10th minute.

Tech earned a corner kick following a run down Sam Houston State’s left flank. Murphy took the opportunity to serve a cross to the right goalpost.

That serve found Devine, and she knew exactly what to do with it. Devine headed the ball to the far post past Sam

Houston State junior goalkeeper Kylie Hambleton.

Six minutes later, almost the exact same thing happened.

Tech ran down the left side and earned another corner kick.

Murphy set up to cross the ball and crossed to the right post, where Devine headed the ball to the opposite post, putting Tech up 2-0.

Murphy said she credited both goals to Devine.

“She can head the ball like a rocket,” Murphy said. “I think her header might be like harder than half the shots on the team.”

There was not much to be done from the server’s side, she said. All that she needed to do was chip the ball enough where a teammate can make contact. Sometimes Murphy does not even know where the ball is exactly going to end up, she said.

This 2-0 lead was a luxury that was not afforded to Tech the previous weekend when it faced Notre Dame and Eastern Michigan.

Tech coach Tom Stone said he enjoyed the early lead.

Fresh legs allowed the team to play with a level of sharpness opposing teams have difficulty dealing with, he said. This sharp-

Miami Dolphins dominate 2nd half, top New England Patriots 33-20

ness is what led to those two goals.

“Unfortunately we gave up that deflection and things became a little tighter,” Stone said.

“Coming out 2-0, though, was a great start.”

Junior forward Shelby McDaniel scored the goal to pull the Bearkats within one.

McDaniel fired the shot from outside the box. Instead of making a one-way trip to the back of the net, the ball took a detour. It first bounced off junior defender Jade Dapaah and then into the net.

Following McDaniel’s goal, the Red Raiders attempted to go up by two goals again. It just would not come easy, especially for junior forward Janine Beckie.

Devine said Beckie may have been frustrated after those missed attempts, but no one worried about her.

Beckie is too talented to let frustration mess with her game for too long, Devine said.

“She will be able to bounce back off (one subpar game),” Devine said.

Nevertheless, the Red Raiders 24-4 shot advantage would eventually pay off at the 68th minute, just a little role reversal needed

Scoring her first goal of the season felt nice, Murphy said.

The Texas Tech volleyball team improved to a 6-0 record after winning the UTPA Tournament, hosted at Edingburg in the UTPA Fieldhouse, according to a Tech Athletics news release.

Tech started the tournament Friday with a doubleheader versus Texas A&M Corpus Christi at 11:30 a.m. and against Texas PanAmerican at 7 p.m. Tournament play closed for the Red Raiders 11 a.m. Saturday against Lamar.

The Red Raiders began the tournament with a rocky start against Corpus Christi. In a four-set match, the Red Raiders lost to the first set to Corpus Christi 25-21. Tech bounced back and won the second and third set 25-21 and 25-19, respectively.

On the fourth set of the match, Tech fell behind Corpus Christi 6-2, but after calling a timeout, Tech topped Corpus Christi with 7-0 run and went on to win the set 25-20.

Sophomore middle blocker Lauren Douglass led the Red Raider offense against Corpus Christi in kills with 14 recorded.

Tech swept UTPA 25-17, 25-12 and 25-22 in a three set match. Tech was able to complete the sweep in the final match with a 7-0 run after being down 22-18.

The Red Raiders’ victory over UTPA is the second time since 2004 in which they have started the season with five straight wins.

HOUSTON (AP) — Ryan Fitzpatrick got things going for Houston and the Texans’ defense and special teams did the rest on Sunday against Washington.

Fitzpatrick threw a touchdown pass, rookie Alfred Blue blocked a punt and returned it for a touchdown and J.J. Watt lived up to his massive new contract to help the Texans to a 17-6 win over Washington.

The victory is Houston’s first since last Sept. 15 and snaps a 14game skid.

The Texans led 7-6 after a 76yard touchdown reception by DeAndre Hopkins in the second quarter.

Blue blocked Washington’s punt on the next drive, scooped it up and returned it five yards for a touchdown to push the lead to 14-6.

Watt had a sack, blocked an extra point and recovered a fumble, a swatted down a pass in his first game since signing a six-year, $100 million contract on Monday. First overall pick Jadeveon Clowney had a tackle for a loss in the first half before leaving with a knee injury.

Robert Griffin III threw for 267 yards, but Washington was done in by two second-half fumbles.

A 42-yard field goal by Randy Bullock in the fourth quarter was the only score of the second half in a game that featured the NFL head coaching debut for both Washington’s Jay Gruden and Houston’s Bill O’Brien.

Both teams got off to a slow start offensively, gaining just one first down apiece and punting a combined seven times in the first quarter.
