Santa Fe resident Linda J. Tanner, who took this photo of three rare African hornbills, said she and two others came upon the birds while driving in a safari vehicle in Tanzania. She said it was amazing to see one, let alone three sitting together. ‘I wish I had the words to describe their loud and distinct call,’ she said in an email. ‘The visit lasted seconds and in the blink of an eye, they flew off.’

Stars turn out to salute songwriter Carole King

Johansson responds to Israeli soda ad critics

LOS ANGELES — Carole King’s gift as a songwriter is all about connection — friends, lovers, strangers experiencing deep emotions not often exposed to each other. Over the decades, King has made that connection with untold millions of fans. Some of those fans came out to honor the songwriter as MusiCares person of the year Friday night as part of the build up to Sunday’s Grammy Awards. Among them, lifelong friend James Taylor, Gloria Estefan, Alicia Keys and Lady Gaga. Gaga told the crowd she used to lock herself in her father’s man room as a high school student and listen to “You’ve Got a Friend” over and over.

LOS ANGELES — Scarlett Johansson is responding to criticism over her new ad campaign for an Israeli company that operates in the West Bank. The 29-year-old actress said in a statement released Friday to The Huffington Post that she “never intended on being the face of any social or political movement, distinction, separation or stance” as part of her affiliation with SodaStream International Ltd. The Israeli drink maker recently signed the Her and The Avengers actress as its first “global brand ambassador.” She is to appear in a television ad during the Super Bowl on Feb. 2.

LASTING IMAGES HORNBILLS

MEXICO CITY — “Drink the water.” It’s a suggestion alien to Mexico City residents who have long shunned tap water in favor of the bottled kind and to the throngs of tourists who visit the city each year, bringing with them fears of “Montezuma’s Revenge.” But a law recently approved by Mexico City’s legislators will require all restaurants to install filters so they can offer patrons free, drinkable water that won’t lead to stomach problems and other ailments. “We need to create a culture of water consumption,” said Dr. Jose Armando Ahued, health secretary for Mexico City. “We need to accept our water.” Bad tap water accounts in part for Mexico being the world’s top consumer of bottled water and — worse — soda, some 43 gallons per person a year. With an obesity epidemic nationwide, the city’s health department decided to back the water initiative. Mexico City officials say 65,000 restaurants will have six months to install filters once the bill is signed later this month. Health inspectors will make periodic visits and impose $125 to $630 fines to those not complying. The law doesn’t cover thousands of food stalls along Mexico City’s streets. Some restaurants already have filters. But when business consultant Jose Frank recently ate tacos with two colleagues

at Yucatan Cravings in the Zona Rosa tourist district, they all had bottled water. “I’m afraid to drink the water for everything they say. I don’t feel secure. I prefer bottled,” Frank said. A general distrust of tap water is not without reason. The city’s giant 1985 earthquake burst water pipelines and sewers, increasing waterborne diseases, and officials blamed water supply systems for a spread of cholera in the 1990s. Tourists still dread getting diarrhea from the microbes in untreated water. It’s a phenomenon so infamous, the bad water even starred in a Sex and the City movie, when Charlotte suffered the runny results of accidentally opening her mouth while showering in a Mexican resort. Mexico City’s health secretary said 95 percent of the capital’s drinking water is clean, based on daily checks of chlorination at various treatment plants. But experts note that while Mexico City water leaves the plant in drinkable form, it travels through old underground pipes and dirty rooftop water tanks to the consumer. Mexicans consume 69 gallons of bottled water per capita each year, mostly from 5-gallon jugs delivered by trucks to restaurants and homes. The number in the U.S. is 31 gallons, according to Jose MartinezRobles, of the New York Citybased consultant Beverage Marketing Corp. It’s not cheap. The large jugs can cost more than $2 in a country where the minimum daily wage is $5. One-liter water bottles range from 50 cents to a dollar. Giants such as French Danone, and Coca-Cola and PepsiCo are finding that bottled water is the fastest growing segment of their business.

A vendor fills his bicycle cart with jugs of water to sell to owners of street food stalls in Mexico City. A recently approved law requires all restaurants to install filters to improve the water’s quality. MARCO UGARTE/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
