After long fight, fired janitors see settlement

By Manny Fernandez The New York Times

S

ixteen janitors who were fired from their jobs six years ago held a reunion a few nights ago to celebrate a hard-fought, longawaited victory. They received a total of $130,000 from a company that once held the janitorial contract for Santa Fe’s public schools. The National Labor Relations Milan Board ruled that Simonich Merchants BuildRingside Seat ing Maintenance LLC retaliated against the janitors after they complained about sexual harassment and then organized to try to improve their working conditions. The decision in favor of the janitors held up through two appeals by the company. The janitors’ story isn’t one of David versus Goliath. They actually began with less power than David, who at least had a slingshot. Soon enough, though, the janitors received help from a Santa Fe-based advocacy organization for immigrants, Somos Un Pueblo Unido. The janitors learned that they could make their voices heard, even without a recognized union, if they stuck together by forming a workers committee. Here’s how it happened: The janitors worked for Californiabased Merchants Building Maintenance, which had janitorial contracts with school districts in several Western states. Santa Fe was one of them. Even though the janitors in Santa Fe worked for a private employer, they say one school administrator exerted enormous power over them. Court records and the workers identify him as Pete Ibarra, who oversaw custodial details. “Pete decided who gets hired and who gets fired,” said Elizabeth Castro, who was one of the janitors. Castro, now 28, said in a recent interview that Ibarra preferred to hire attractive young women when he evaluated those seeking to mop floors and clean toilets.

King takes Martinez to task on A-F school grades, teacher evals By Robert Nott

EDITOR’S NOTE

The New Mexican

oters who say there is no difference between politicians may have a hard time claiming that about the education policies of Gov. Susana Martinez and Democrat Gary King. Martinez has moved forward with an A-F grading system for public schools; King says he would replace it. Martinez has settled on a new teacher evaluation system that heavily weighs student test data; King says he would throw the system out. Martinez is now spending about 45 percent of the state general fund on education; King says he would push for 50 percent. And Martinez has repeatedly said she is against tapping the state’s $14 billion permanent fund to expand early childhood programs. King has said he would pull 1 per-

cent to 1.5 percent of that fund for such programs. With three weeks to go before the Nov. 4 election, education has emerged as one of the most volatile issues in the campaign — it was King’s first avenue of attack against Martinez, and his most vocal supporters are teachers and educators. “Education can and should be a game changer for Gary,” said Rep. Rick Miera, D-Albuquerque, a longtime member of the Legislative Education Study Committee. “There’s not a teacher in the state who is OK with what is happening, I mean in terms of grading schools, teacher evaluations, pushing money below the line,” said Ellen Bernstein,

head of the Albuquerque Teachers Federation. But Gov. Martinez thinks she, too, has a winning hand with her policies and has toured the state talking about reforms she says can move New Mexico schools ahead. As she did four years ago, Martinez is showing up in New Mexico elementary schools to read to children and promote the expansion of the “Breakfast After the Bell” food program, which provides morning meals to low-income students. Albuquerque pollster Brian Sanderoff said it is obvious that Martinez’s campaign handlers are “making a point to have her spend

MLK’s Nobel-winning vision: Is it still relevant 50 years later? Some say civil rights leader’s ideas on peace pertain especially to world today By Jesse Washington The Associated Press

Dallas hospital worker infected

The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. dedicated his life to much more than achieving racial equality. That goal, he said again and again, was inseparable from alleviating poverty and stopping war. And he reiterated this theme after being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize 50 years ago this week. “I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war, that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality,” he said in his Nobel acceptance speech. “Sooner or later, all the people of the world will have to discover a way to live

together in peace.” Half a century later, it’s obvious that enormous progress has been made toward overcoming racial discrimination — that King was right in his vision about race. Yet widespread poverty remains, in America and beyond, and bombs still fall as brutal wars rage on. Was King naïve? Was his full vision simply unobtainable — do free markets require poor people to function, and will war always assert itself as a defining human habit? Is King’s Nobel vision relevant five decades later? Absolutely, insist some who study King’s life and philosophy. They say his

CDC plans to ramp up training In response to new case, agency will offer more specifics on protection By Pam Belluck The New York Times

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Sunday that the agency would take new steps to help hospital workers protect themselves, providing more training and urging hospitals to run drills to practice dealing with potential Ebola patients. In response to the news that a health care worker in Dallas had contracted Ebola, a spokeswoman said the agency would also issue more specific instructions and explanations for putting on and removing protective equipment and would urge nurses and doctors to enlist a co-worker or “buddy” to watch them do so. “Certainly this event has given us all a wake-up call that we really need to make sure that front-line health care workers are fully prepared to handle a patient with Ebola,” said

DALLAS — A nurse here became the first person to contract Ebola within the United States, prompting local, state and federal officials who had settled into a choreographed response to scramble Sunday to solve the mystery of how she became infected despite wearing protective gear and to monitor additional places and people possibly at risk. The news further stoked fears of health care workers across the country, many of whom have grown increasingly anxious about having to handle Ebola cases. The confirmation Sunday of the second Ebola case in Dallas — four days after the death Wednesday of the first patient, Thomas Eric Duncan, 42, a Liberian national who arrived in this country in September — opened a new and more frightening chapter in the unfolding public health drama. While the new Ebola patient was not publicly identified, officials said that she was a nurse who had helped treat Duncan at a hospital here and that she may have violated safety pro-

‘Pumpkinstein’ monster squash to bring in profit Creator sold 5.5K gourds for $75 each to suppliers, selling out crop months ago By Jennifer Medina The New York Times

FILLMORE, Calif. ike Victor Frankenstein, Tony Dighera was determined to bring a new creature to life. Though he was fairly new to farming, Dighera saw profit to be made in strangely shaped squash. So he created a “pumpkinstein.” Grown in a plastic mold, the pumpkins bear the distinctive face of the Frankenstein monster, and Dighera has harvested roughly 5,500 of them this year. With a slight smile, a wide button nose, a slightly furrowed brow and ears sticking out just slightly, the pumpkins are easy to mistake for something carved from wax. “People never believe it’s real the first time they see it; they all want to touch it to make sure,” Dighera said, holding one of his creations on his 40-acre organic farm north of Los Angeles, as workers harvested cilantro and dill one recent morning. “The point was to make something that would get attention.” Their distinctive, if unnatural, shape is so far a major success. Dighera sold out his crop to suppliers months ago, offering the pumpkins wholesale for $75 each. Retailers expect each to fetch $100 or more in the weeks leading up to Halloween. Halloween has grown beyond the simple days of trick-or-treating and into a $7 billion business, according to the National Retail Federation, as retailers go to greater lengths each year to try to surpass the previous season. Just over $2 billion was spent last year on candy alone, according to industry figures. And long ago it stopped being just a sweets-fueled holiday for children. Among the biggest money earners are adult costumes, with costs typically ranging from $30 to well over $100. And last year, consumers spent $310 million on costumes for their pets. Decorations now account for nearly a third of Halloween spending, and the fast-growing category is one of the most competitive aspects of the industry. Cue pumpkinstein and Dighera, who got his start in oddly shaped produce several years

ago, after coming across a website that featured square watermelons grown in Japan. In 2010, Dighera began experimenting with plastic molds and watermelon varieties. Was this mold too sharp, that plastic too strong, the shade too dark? If the fruits were too small, they would not take the shape, but if they were too big, they would crack. After trying dozens of seed varieties and experimenting with how much sun the crops received, he produced a sweet, crisp, red-fleshed, cube-shaped watermelon. Elated, he moved on to a heart-shaped mold. This year, Dighera sold the square and heartshaped watermelons for $40 each, primarily through local upscale markets. At the same time, he figured out how to use a mold to imprint logos: Whole Foods received its own branded melons, the letters perfectly pressed into the rind. It took Dighera 27 varieties of pumpkin — and roughly $400,000 — before he found the right one to take the monster shape. “I started playing around and realized pretty quickly this wasn’t going to be a quick thing,” he said. “But I also realized that if I could really figure it out, I would have something special.” And something that could make a lot of money. This year, he estimates he produced 5,500 pumpkin heads. But in the coming year, he plans to turn over almost his entire farm to the endeavor, aiming to harvest between 30,000 and 40,000 pumpkinsteins. Cultivating them is easier than watermelons, Dighera said, because nobody is concerned about how a Halloween pumpkin tastes. In the food-obsessed corners of Southern California, it is hardly unusual for a single piece of produce to cost well into the double digits. But to Andrea Moss, who has been willing to fork over $30 for foraged mushrooms, Dighera’s creations look like too much of a splurge. “They certainly caught my eye,” Moss, 43, said as she shopped at Erewhon, an organic market in Calabasas, a wealthy Los Angeles suburb, where the pumpkins were being sold for $100 (by preorder only). “But looking amazing won’t make me spend that much right now.” Dighera has caught people trying to sneak onto the farm in the middle of the night four times — presumably to steal pumpkins or to try to figure out how they are grown. He has turned down offers to be bought out by major farms, he said, but is considering licensing the molds to other growers next year.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — The Justice Department is asking that a lawsuit be revived that says Alabama school district officials are responsible for a sexual attack on a 14-year-old girl a teacher’s aide used as bait for a 16-year-old with a history of sexual harassment. The lawsuit says the aide asked the girl to go into a middle school bathroom so the boy could be caught trying to have sex with her and disciplined. Evidence shows she was raped before school officials could get into the bathroom. Exactly why the plan was carried out and who knew about it are at the heart of a court fight pitting the Obama administration and groups that advocate against sexual violence versus a north Alabama school district that says its administrators aren’t to blame for the 2010 attack.

Car bomb in Somalia’s capital kills 11, wounds eight MOGADISHU, Somalia — A car bomb exploded outside a popular cafe in Somalia’s capital on Sunday, killing 11 people and wounding eight others, a senior police official said. The blast struck the Aroma cafe in Mogadishu and the bomb was believed to have been detonated by remote control, senior police official Mohammed Hussein said. Most of those who died were sitting outside the cafe, he said. Somali soldiers sent to the scene fired in the air to disperse a growing crowd that gathered amid shattered coffee glasses, and broken tables and chairs. Medical workers transported the wounded into waiting ambulances. “What crime have these innocents committed?” said Liban Abdi, who survived the attack, which killed his friend. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but suspicion has fallen on the al-Qaida-linked al-Shabab militants who have vowed to avenge the death of their leader, Ahmed Abdi Godane, who was killed in early September in a U.S. airstrike. Godane has been replaced by Ahmed Omar, also known as Abu Ubeid.

Rally staged in town rocked by hazing scandal SAYREVILLE, N.J. — Hundreds of people came out Sunday evening for an anti-bullying rally in a central New Jersey town that’s been rocked by allegations of sex-related hazing involving its high school football team, which prompted the cancellation of the rest of the season. The rally was staged in a park across the street from the school, Sayreville War Memorial High. “We need to come together to support each other, our children, our community and most especially the young men who spoke up,” organizer Maureen Jenkins said in an emotional speech. Seven students face sex-crime charges stemming from the alleged hazing. Three were charged with aggravated sexual assault, criminal restraint, hazing and other crimes stemming from an act of sexual penetration upon one of the children. The other four students were charged with aggravated criminal sexual contact and other crimes. District officials said Sunday that all seven have been suspended. New Mexican wire services

Strengthening Gonzalo takes aim at Caribbean KINGSTON, Jamaica — Tropical Storm Gonzalo gained strength as it took aim at a swath of the Caribbean including Puerto Rico, threatening to dump heavy rains that could unleash mudslides and flash floods. As it approached the warm waters of the Caribbean, the storm’s impending arrival prompted wary officials to post hurricane or tropical storm warnings and watches stretching from the French island of Guadeloupe to the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico. Rain-swollen Gonzalo was expected to move through parts of the Leeward Islands by early Monday, producing 4 inches to 8 inches of pelting rainfall, with some isolated areas potentially getting deluged with as much as 12 inches, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center. Its maximum sustained winds were 45 mph late Sunday night.

Cyclone in India kills 8 as typhoon hits Japan HYDERABAD, India — A powerful cyclone that slammed into India’s eastern seaboard weakened as it moved inland Monday, leaving at least eight dead in its wake. Rescue workers readied helicopters, aircraft and ships to carry out relief operations once daylight made clear the extent of damage. In another storm lashing Asia, Typhoon Vongfong was downgraded to tropical storm as it hit the Japanese island of Kyushu after battering the southern island of Okinawa. At least 37 people were injured, and authorities advised 150,000 people to evacuate. Train service and flights were disrupted in Kyushu and the neighboring island of Shikoku. Japan’s Meteorological Agency said the storm could reach the Tokyo area by early Tuesday. In India, Cyclone Hudhud moved 95 miles north-northwest of the city of Visakhapatnam, where it made landfall Sunday. Weather forecasters downgraded it to a tropical depression, with wind speeds of up to 45 miles per hour, considerably slower than on Sunday. The death toll rose to eight, five in Andra Pradesh state and three in Orissa state, mostly caused by wall collapses and falling trees, Indian officials said. It was still raining across the region, heavily in some places. Authorities plan to make an assessment of the damage caused as the day breaks and then decide on the contours of the relief operations. Experts said the storm was likely to have caused widespread destruction along nearly 185 miles of India’s east coast. Communication services and electricity were cut off in some areas. At least 400,000 people were evacuated from the coastal areas of Andhra Pradesh and Orissa states ahead of the storm, and hundreds of shelters were set up to house them. Visakhapatnam, one of the largest cities in southern India and a major naval base, was bearing the brunt of the cyclone’s fury. Television footage from Visakhapatnam showed downed electrical poles, uprooted trees and massive debris strewn in the streets. Electricity lines were disconnected in parts of Andhra Pradesh to avoid electrocutions, said Arvind Kumar, a relief and rescue official.

Suicide attacks and bombings leave 60 dead, injure scores By Kirk Semple The New York Times

BAGHDAD — Three suicide bombers attacked a government center in Diyala province, northeast of Baghdad, on Sunday, killing 60 people and wounding more than 120, officials said. Many of the victims were people who had sought refuge in the district, Qara Taba, after violence had forced them to flee their homes elsewhere in the country, officials said. They had gathered at the government center to collect subsidies for displaced people. Earlier in the day, the police chief of the embattled province of Anbar in western Iraq was killed when two bombs planted along a rural road were detonated as his convoy drove by, officials said. Anbar officials said the death of the chief, Maj.

Gen. Ahmed Saddag, was a setback to the efforts of the Iraqi security forces to wrest full control of the province from the jihadist insurgency called the Islamic State. The Iraqi security forces have been struggling to push back the Islamic State fighters from territory they have captured this year. The insurgent group first made inroads in Iraq at the beginning of the year when its fighters swept from Syria into Anbar province and quickly seized control of cities and territory throughout the Euphrates River valley, from the Syrian border to the rural western suburbs of the Baghdad metropolitan area. In June, another wave of fighters poured across the Syrian border into northern Iraq, quickly overwhelming Iraqi security forces in the city of Mosul. They have since expanded their con-

American troops to use bases in Turkey WASHINGTON — Turkey will allow American and coalition troops to use its bases, including a key installation within 100 miles of the Syrian border, for operations against Islamic State militants in Syria and Iraq, Defense Department officials said Sunday. Obama administration officials have urged the Turkish government to play a more significant role in fighting the extremists who have seized large swaths of Iraq and Syria and driven refugees into Turkey. A U.S. military team will arrive in Turkey

trol across areas of northern and central Iraq. Sunday’s three-pronged attack in Qara Taba, northeast of Baqouba near the Iranian border, targeted the mayor’s office, a building used by the internal

this week to hammer out details of the training program and discuss what kind of missions can be flown from the Turkish bases, administration officials said. The basing and training agreement follows two days of talks in Ankara, the Turkish capital, between authorities there and John R. Allen, the retired U.S. general who is coordinating the coalition’s response to the Islamic State. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, who has been traveling in South America, has said the United States has sought access to the Turkish air bases, including one at Incirlik in southern Turkey, from which to launch.

Donors pledge $2.7B for Gaza reconstruction By Hamza Hendawi THe Associated Press

CAIRO — Donors at an international conference Sunday promised $2.7 billion to rebuild the war-ravaged Gaza Strip, but all of the key participants said their efforts would be futile without a permanent peace between Israel and the Palestinians. U.S.-mediated talks broke down this summer before the 50-day war between Hamas and Israel began — the third since 2008 — and it remains unclear how peace can come about. Norwegian Foreign Minister Borge Brende, who co-chaired the one-day meeting with Egypt, said pledges of $5.4 billion have been made, but that only half of that money would be “dedicated” to the reconstruction of the coastal strip. Brende did not say what the other half of the funds would be spent on. Other delegates have spoken of budgetary support, boosting economic activity, emergency relief and other projects. “The message was clear to the

international community that the Palestinian brothers are not alone,” Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shukri told a news conference after the meeting. Qatar offered the biggest donation of $1 billion — once again using its vast wealth to reinforce its role as a regional player. The United Arab Emirates — a Gulf Arab rival of Qatar — promised $200 million. The pledges followed U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry’s announcement of immediate American assistance of $212 million. The European Union pledged $568 million, while Turkey, which has been playing a growing regional role, said it was donating $200 million. Qatari Foreign Minister Khalid bin Mohammed al-Attiyah, in announcing his country’s pledge, denounced the “international silence” that surrounded Gaza’s destruction. “While the Palestinian people need financial support, they need more political support from the international community,” he said. “A just peace is the only

real guarantee for not destroying what we are about to rebuild and reconstruct.” Delegates representing about 50 nations and 20 regional and international organizations applauded the pledge by Qatar. The Emirates and Saudi Arabia, however, allege that Qatar is using its wealth to undermine regional stability, primarily through meddling in other nations’ affairs and aiding militant Islamic groups. Conference organizers hope the pledges will be paid over a three-year period to aid reconstruction in Gaza, which borders Israel and Egypt. Both countries have blockaded Gaza since Hamas took power there in 2007, causing the territory of 1.8 million people economic hardship and high unemployment.

Donors plan to funnel the aid through Abbas’ Palestinian Authority, bypassing Hamas. Abbas and Hamas recently formed a national unity government, and its deputy prime minister, Mohammed Mustafa, acknowledged there would difficulties for the funds to arrive quickly and be appropriated. The Western-backed Abbas told the delegates that the latest Gaza war caused “tragedies that are difficult to be described by words. … Entire neighborhoods have been reduced to rubble.” He said the Palestinian government “will carry out the reconstruction plan with full responsibility and transparency in coordination with the U.N., the donors, international financial institutions, civil society and the private sector.”

The New York Times

set off his explosives at the compound’s gates. He was quickly followed by two other attackers driving cars loaded with explosives, which were detonated at the compound’s entrance, officials

said. The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attack, according to The Associated Press. Qara Taba is close to Jalawla, where Islamic State fighters have been battling Iraqi security forces and Kurdish fighters, known as the peshmerga. Among the dead were 15 peshmerga veterans, Rudaw reported, adding that the attacks were also close to the peshmerga’s veterans affairs bureau. The attack that killed Saddag in Anbar occurred in the town of Albu Risha, west of Ramadi, the provincial capital. Three of Saddag’s bodyguards were also killed in the attack, said a staff member of a provincial council member, who requested anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the news media. “His death is a great tragedy,” said Sheik Ahmed Abu Risha, a leader of the Albu Risha tribe in Anbar province. “He was a lion.”

Ebola: Obama requests expedited review Continued from Page A-1

CDC: Full-scale drills urged at U.S. hospitals Continued from Page A-1 Abbigail Tumpey, a spokeswoman for the CDC. “Every U.S. health care facility needs to have the capability to initially handle a case. Even if the patient is going to be transferred to another facility, they need to be able to handle the first moments.” The agency will conduct a nationwide training conference call for health care workers on Tuesday. And in New York City on Oct. 21, it will co-sponsor training for 5,000 people, including nurses, emergency technicians and environmental health workers, that will be streamed live to hospitals across the country. The agency will also urge hospitals to conduct full-scale drills in which people pretending to be Ebola patients enter the hospital, forcing unsuspecting staff members to run through the process of diagnosis, isolation and potential treatment. Several hospitals have conducted such drills, and some have found holes in their systems, Tumpey said. “We have told hospitals we will assist them with drills,” she said. “Our goal is to have at least one facility in every state that is thoroughly trained to manage one of these cases.” Tumpey said the agency was not, for now, changing its recommendation that doctors and nurses wear standard personal protective equipment: gloves, waterproof gown, face mask and eye covering. She said that it would review whether to recommend full-body coverings or hazardous-material suits, but that there could be greater risks of infection associated with taking such suits off, especially when people are not used to wearing them regularly. A higher priority is to make sure

that health care workers are properly trained in using the standard protection. “Following the protocols is one thing; appropriately implementing them is another,” Tumpey said. “A minor breach could potentially expose a person.” Dr. Ken Anderson, chief operating officer of the American Hospital Association’s research arm, said his organization was recommending that hospitals follow CDC guidelines and was not providing specific suggestions of its own. “We rely on the policies and procedures that are found at every hospital,” he said. “Their own best internal education is what’s going to make that most effective.” For example, the association has not urged every hospital to conduct drills, because “we have any number of hospitals that have a variety of ways of educating their staff,” he said. Tumpey said the disease agency might re-evaluate the best protective gear to recommend, but she said past experience with U.S. hospitals had informed its recommendation on standard protection. For example, she said, in 2008, a Colorado hospital using standard precautions dealt successfully with a woman who returned from a Ugandan safari having contracted Marburg fever, another deadly virus. The staff there even performed surgery on the woman, removing her gall bladder, Tumpey said. For now, she said, the agency is planning to “make our recommendations easier to understand” regarding standard protective equipment. The Dallas case “is going to only increase the fear of front-line health care workers to manage these situations,” she said. “We have our job cut out for us to assure them.”

tocols. It was the first confirmed instance of Ebola being transmitted in this country. Officials expanded the pool of people they had been monitoring, because the nurse had not been among the 48 health care workers, relatives of Duncan and others they were evaluating daily. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended that health officials look more closely at the protective gear that nurses, doctors and hospital assistants use when treating Ebola patients. It also, for the first time, was considering the idea that patients with the virus should be transferred to hospitals with special containment units and experience in treating the disease. The Dallas hospital at the center of the two Ebola cases — Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, which sent Duncan home on Sept. 25 under the mistaken belief he had a sinus infection, only to have him return Sept. 28 when his conditions worsened — was facing renewed scrutiny over whether it had properly trained its workers. The CDC said it would conduct a nationwide training conference call Tuesday for thousands of health care workers to ensure they would be fully prepared to treat a patient with Ebola. “The care of Ebola patients can be done safely, but it’s hard to do it safely,” Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, director of the CDC, told reporters Sunday. “Even a single, inadvertent innocent slip can result in contamination.” The stricken nurse reported a lowgrade fever overnight Friday, officials said. It appeared that she drove herself to the emergency room of Presbyterian Hospital, where she worked, and was admitted and put in isolation 90 minutes later, the officials said. She had extensive contact with Duncan on multiple occasions after his second visit and admission to the hospital on Sept. 28, Frieden said. The nurse had been monitoring herself for symptoms of Ebola, under a regimen prescribed by the CDC. Health officials will now investigate who had been in contact with Duncan after he was admitted to the hospital on Sept. 28 and while he was in isolation, Frieden said. Before her trip to the ER, officials said, the nurse had not been at work for two days. A preliminary blood test was done at the state public health lab in Austin and the positive result was received late Saturday evening, officials said. Late Sunday afternoon, the CDC confirmed that she had Ebola after completing its own tests. The woman was in stable condition on Sunday. Dr. Daniel Varga, chief clinical officer of Texas Health Resources, which oversees Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, told reporters on Sunday that the worker had worn protective gear when coming in contact with Duncan, although he did not detail the type of contact. “This individual was following full CDC precautions,” Varga said, adding, “Gown, glove, mask and shield.” Asked

how concerned he was that the worker tested positive despite the precautions, he replied, “We’re very concerned.” Despite Varga’s reassurances about CDC precautions having been followed, Frieden said it appeared the woman had breached safety protocol at the hospital, possibly when removing the protective gear. Speaking on the CBS program Face the Nation and later at a news conference, he said that questioning of the worker had not identified precisely how a breach occurred and that the cause of her infection was not known. Frieden said everyone who treated Duncan was now considered to be potentially exposed and that other cases of Ebola were possible. “We’re deeply concerned about this new development,” he said on the talk show. The CDC has said that for health workers in the United States, gloves, gowns, masks and face shields or goggles would be protection enough. But many health workers across the country, seeing images of people in Africa completely encased in full-body, hazardousmaterial suits, have requested similar protection. “A lot of us are starting to get worried,” said Debra Buccellato, an ER nurse in Santa Rosa, Calif. “I’m a single mom, so if I got sick there’d be a huge void.” Buccellato, 38, said supervisors at her hospital had distributed information about CDC guidelines, but added, “I have not seen any active training or practice drills, and I haven’t seen any new or upgraded personal protective equipment.” On Sunday, National Nurses United, the country’s largest union and professional association of nurses, continued to sound the alarm and call for hazardous material suits at all hospitals. “I’m angry about this,” said RoseAnn DeMoro, the executive director. “We want the first line of defense to be the most prepared. Our hospitals are resisting us. The CDC doesn’t say that we need hazmat suits. If this doesn’t change dramatically, we will picket every hospital in this country if we have to.” President Barack Obama on Sunday directed the CDC to expedite its investigation into how the health care worker contracted the deadly virus, according to a White House statement. In an indication that the White House was taking steps in advance of any possible spread of the disease, Obama also directed federal officials to make sure hospitals and health workers across the nation “are prepared to follow protocols should they encounter an Ebola patient,” the statement said. Obama was briefed by Lisa Monaco, the president’s assistant for homeland security, and then spoke by telephone with Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell. While there have been other patients with Ebola treated in the United States in recent weeks, the nurse is only the second person — after Duncan — whose condition was diagnosed in the United States. All of the other patients

— including medical personnel, relief workers and journalists — received a diagnosis while working in West Africa near Ebola victims and were brought to this country for treatment. Four hospitals in the United States — Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha, the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Md., and St. Patrick Hospital in Missoula, Mont. — have highcontainment units for isolating patients with dangerous infectious diseases, and medical teams at those facilities have conducted extensive training and drills for dealing with pathogens like Ebola. But in Dallas on Sunday, officials were trying to persuade residents to remain calm and reminded them that their risk of exposure was low. “You cannot contract Ebola other than from the bodily fluids of a symptomatic Ebola victim,” said County Judge Clay Jenkins, Dallas County’s chief executive, who himself has had close contact with those who lived with Duncan. “You cannot contract Ebola by walking by people on the street or by being around contacts who are not symptomatic. There’s nothing about this case that changes that basic premise of science.” City officials moved swiftly to clean and decontaminate many of the places where the nurse had been or had even briefly touched, including her apartment in a complex on Marquita Avenue, the complex’s common areas and the car she took to the hospital. Police officers were prohibiting access to her apartment. Officials believe the woman’s pet dog was inside the apartment but was fine. “We have a plan in place to take care of the pet, and we do not believe that pet has any signs, and we’ll move accordingly later today,” Mayor Mike Rawlings of Dallas said. Remaining calm was easier said than done for many of the woman’s neighbors. Early Sunday morning, city officials knocked on the doors of nearby homes and called residences in the four blocks surrounding the complex to inform people that someone who lived in the neighborhood had tested positive for Ebola. At the hospital, the car the woman arrived in was decontaminated and secured, officials said. “We decontaminated hand-railings, everything in the parking lot, so everybody can feel comfortable that the exterior was taken care of,” Rawlings said. The hospital also took the unusual step Sunday of prohibiting ambulances from bringing new patients into its ER. Officials said the hospital was open, but said they had decided to put the ER on so-called diversion status because of staff limitations. “While we are on diversion we are also using this time to further expand the margin of safety by triple-checking our full compliance with updated CDC guidelines,” hospital officials said in a statement. “We are also continuing to monitor all staff who had some relation to Mr. Duncan’s care even if they are not assumed to be at significant risk of infection.”

MLK: His lecture expanded on links between racism, poverty, war Continued from Page A-1 racial proclamations and strategies, so controversial back then but now part of the American cultural canon, can and should apply to today’s stubborn issues of poverty and war. “I don’t think his vision has ever been more relevant,” says Paul Chappell, a West Point graduate who served in Iraq and now teaches and writes books about peace. “The problem is, people don’t realize how prophetic King was.” Chappell, the Peace Leadership Director for the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation, which seeks a world without nuclear weapons, says a close examination of King’s life and work shows he predicted today’s protests over income inequality and trillions of war dollars drained from America’s budgets. “He realized that American military intervention is not only harmful to people around the world, it’s also harmful to the American people,” Chappell says. The peace prize for King, then just 35 years old, honored a Southern preacher whose philosophy, courage and oratory galvanized the civil rights movement, on whose behalf he said he accepted it. It gave a unique international recognition to the movement’s accomplishments at a pivotal time. The prize was announced on Oct. 14, 1964, against a backdrop of the Civil Rights Act, whose passage earlier that year finally granted black Americans full citizenship. But it also came as the nation approached all-out war in Vietnam. King accepted the award in Oslo, Norway, on

Dec. 10, and the following day delivered the traditional Nobel lecture. In his remarks, King returned to a lifelong theme of describing a world where love and compassion could conquer poverty and conflict. His strategies were based on nonviolence — “the need for man to overcome oppression and violence without resorting to violence and oppression,” as he said in his speech. “The foundation of such a method is love,” he said. “The Nobel speeches really are neglected gems of how longterm progress against these evils requires a great commitment of mind and spirit and cooperation all rolled into one,” says the historian Taylor Branch, author of the definitive trilogy America in the King Years. “I don’t think he’s naïve,” Branch says. “I think he’s saying, if there’s hope, it’s through nonviolent cooperation and really applying it with courage and all your heart and your mind against the evils that still plague the world.” Branch says that even though dozens of countries are at war today, levels of global violence and large-scale casualties have been declining since the mid20th century. By that measure, there has been progress toward King’s dream of peace. King used his Nobel lecture to expand on the connections between racism, poverty and war. “Each of these problems, while appearing to be separate and isolated, is inextricably bound to the other,” he said. Using nonviolence to achieve racial progress, King said, meant people “have taken suffering

upon themselves instead of inflicting it on others. It has meant that we do not want to instill fear in others or into the society of which we are a part.” That society is far bigger than America, King stated. It is the human family. “We have inherited a big house, a great ‘world house’ in which in which we have to live together — black and white, Easterners and Westerners, Gentiles and Jews, Catholics and Protestants, Moslem and Hindu, a family unduly separated in ideas, culture, and interests who, because we can never again live without each other, must learn, somehow, in this one big world, to live with each other,” King lectured. “This call for a worldwide fellowship that lifts neighborly

concern beyond one’s tribe, race, class, and nation is in reality a call for an all-embracing and unconditional love for all men.” Some say love has nothing to do with it. “War is embedded in our very nature,” the influential scholar Edward O. Wilson wrote in his book The Social Conquest of Earth, which argues that humans have developed, biologically, a tendency to fight. Others argue that some income inequality is inevitable, since people have different capabilities. Yet there is the question of degree. Clayborne Carson, a history professor and director of Stanford University’s Martin Luther King Jr. Research and Education Institute, says King had focused on the triple threat of racism, poverty and war since the earliest parts of his career.

“You couldn’t solve one without solving the others,” Carson says in describing King’s view. In that context, today’s struggle against enduring poverty and war may reflect a resistance to King’s holistic approach: We followed King’s lead to push back racism, but haven’t yet tried to apply his methods of love and shared suffering to poverty and war. “If the distribution of wealth in America was less unequal, we wouldn’t see as many of these manifestations of racial conflict,” Carson says. The gap between the richest and poorest Americans has grown over the last 40 years, according to a February 2014 report by the liberal Economic Policy Institute. And the poverty rate, 15 percent in 2012, the most recent year available, hasn’t improved much since 1964, when it stood at 19 percent. King said in Oslo: “It is obvious that if man is to redeem his spiritual and moral ‘lag,’ he must go all out to bridge the social and economic gulf between the ‘haves’ and the ‘have nots’ of the world. Poverty is one of the most urgent items on the agenda of modern life.” Carson provided another example of King’s strategies being ignored: the idea that “if we just fight against these terrorists, terrorism will go away. One of the things King said is that the United States is the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today. We don’t see that in ourselves, we [think we] use violence for good.” Chappell, the soldier turned peacemaker, said King was ahead of his time in calling for solving international problems

without war, because there are often no military solutions available today. “In purely military terms, look at Russia. There is no military option for us, because they have nuclear weapons,” Chappell said. “With ISIS, you have people from Britain and Turkey and probably the United States who want to join ISIS. It’s an ideology. How do you deal with this problem in a conventional military way?” ISIS is another name for the terrorist group calling itself the Islamic State. Observed King in his lecture: “Violence never brings permanent peace. It solves no social problem; it merely creates new and more complicated ones.” “Violence ends up defeating itself,” he said. These were King’s thoughts 50 years ago as he sought to heal a nation fraught with centuriesold racial barriers and to safeguard a world with growing stockpiles of nuclear weapons. Today, as society continues to realize King’s racial dreams, perhaps there is still prophecy to be fulfilled in his Nobel talks. “Is it possible that the road he and his people have charted may bring a ray of hope to other parts of the world, a hope that conflicts between races, nations, and political systems can be solved, not by fire and sword, but in a spirit of true brotherly love?” Gunnar John, chairman of the Nobel committee, asked when giving King the peace prize. “It sounds like a dream of a remote and unknown future,” he said, “but life is not worth living without a dream and without working to make the dream reality.”

Education: Still early to gauge effectiveness of governor’s reforms Continued from Page A-1 a lot of time in the schools from that symbolism perspective to try to tie her to kids, caring and education.” But showing you care about education and posting improvements in the classroom don’t always connect when it comes to performance data. So here is a closer look at where the state stands on the governor’s key reforms.

Teacher evaluations If there is anything that has pitted teachers against Gov. Martinez, it is the new teacher evaluation system. It’s too soon to know whether it will improve teacher quality — the state just released its first year of data on evaluations. Two lawsuits are currently working their way through the courts trying to stop it, claiming it goes against the state constitution and is unfair. Martinez implemented the evaluation plan in 2012 by a department rule after it failed to pass the Legislature. The program calls for 50 percent of a teacher’s evaluation to be based on three years of student growth measures, including test scores. Factors such as teacher attendance, the school’s A-F grade from the state and student surveys can be considered in the equation. In the first evaluations released this year, 73 percent of the state’s 22,000 teachers were ranked “effective” or better, 23 percent were rated “minimally effective” and 4.2 percent were deemed “ineffective. But the accuracy of the rankings has come under question, in part because the Public Education Department had to revise an earlier assessment, admitting it did not have sufficient data. Educators and teachers unions argue that there is little reliable data to link test score results to teacher effectiveness. They do praise the observation portion of the evaluations, in which principals or trained educators watch teachers in practice throughout the school year. The Public Education Department counters that the evaluations hold teachers accountable and spotlight the good teachers while giving minimally effective teachers the chance to undergo professional development to improve. Several state lawmakers and teachers unions, including the National Education Association New Mexico, have filed lawsuits in state District Court to stop the evaluations, calling them illegal and unjust. One of those suits was filed in late September. Another, filed late last year, is still working its way through the Court of Appeals. King has said he would confer with educators and then create a new teacher evaluation system with little, if any, reliance on test scores.

A-F school grading In 2011, the state Legislature approved the governor’s plan to grade schools on an A-F scale to better give communities a sense of how well the schools are faring and offer struggling schools more support. The grading system weighs student performance, student growth and the growth of both the highest- and lowest-performing groups of students, graduation rates, student attendance and other measures. In the 2013-14 school year, the state gave 88 schools A grades, 244 B’s, 188 C’s, 230 D’s and 93 F’s. Although the Public Education Department initially said parents have the option of transferring their children from a low-performing to high-performing school, Larry Behrens, spokesman for the department, said earlier this year that the state is not tracking this information and does not know whether parents are in fact doing that. Few people claim to understand the complex measurements behind the grades, and late last year, a team of Los Alamos scientists said they couldn’t make heads or tails of the system. One man who seemed to make sense of it all — statistician Pete Goldschmidt, director of assessment and accountability for the education department — left the department at the end of September to return to a job as a faculty member at California State University. Critics have questioned his

departure at a time when both the A-F and teacher evaluation systems are coming under fire for their complexity. King has said he would replace the system with a new one, though he has not revealed specifics about his plan.

Graduation rates Martinez has said her reform efforts led to a substantial increase of nearly 15 percent in graduation rates from about 60 percent in 2007 to about 74 percent in 2012. But as King pointed out during a mid-August campaign stop in Albuquerque, much of that gain occurred during the tenure of former Gov. Bill Richardson, a Democrat. Martinez did not take office until January 2011.

to $46,888 from 2010’s average of $46,258. Between 2011 and 2013, salaries stagnated around the $45,000 to $47,000 range. The state still falls below the national average of about $55,000, according to National Education Association salary rankings. King said he would raise teacher salaries, including for beginning teachers, to recruit and maintain educators. He said increasing the state’s education budget and finding savings in corrections and health care costs can help increase those salaries.

Early childhood education funding

The Public Education and the Children, Youth and Families departments each spend Retention and about $20 million on prekindergarten programs — a jump reading initiatives from $6 million and $8 million, respectively, in 2010. Critics say Arguing that 80 percent it’s still not enough and that less of third-graders cannot read than 50 percent of the state’s at grade level, Martinez has 89 school districts offer pre-K made three swings at passing programs. legislation to hold back those King has said he will draw students.

New Mexico students are performing worse than they were four years ago, with 49 percent of students reading to proficiency, down from over 53 percent in 2010. That year, 42.2 percent of New Mexico students’ scores showed proficiency in math. This year, that number dropped to 40.7 percent. Gauging King’s educational record includes a review of his legislative voting record from 1987 to 1998, when he served as a state representative. The Martinez campaign has blasted his support of a 1991 bill that took about $8.9 million away from Albuquerque Public Schools and redistributed it to smaller districts, including Roswell and Santa Fe. King has not denied that charge, but he has said Martinez’s camp is trying to hurt his reputation by playing up a 20-year-old vote. In other votes at that time, he supported phasing in smaller class sizes and providing educational assistants, as well as reinstating teacher tenure — actions that have helped earn him the support of educators. During a September appearance at an Albuquerque public school, Martinez said she does not believe that teachers are against her. “I am so pro-teacher it’s not funny,” she once said. But Martinez has drawn fire for comments she made in a leaked audio recording from her 2010 campaign race — a time when some thought that cutting teachers’ salaries might be inevitable because of the budget crisis. “During the campaign, we can’t say it, I guess, because it’s education,” she is heard saying in the recording made during debate preparations with her campaign staff, “but … [teachers] already don’t work, you know, two and a half months out of the year or three months out of the year but earn salaries at the same rate of people who do work 12 months a year.”

The governor’s point person on education, Hanna Skandera, head of the education department, remains the only one of Martinez’s Cabinet appointees not to earn Senate confirmation. Legally, she still can do her job, and she repeatedly has said that is what she intends to do. Martinez supporter Terri Cole, president and CEO of the Greater Albuquerque Chamber of Commerce, said Skandera’s failure to gain confirmation speaks to a lack of bipartisan support behind the governor’s initiatives. Cole said many businesses back the MartinezSkandera platform to pull the state out from the bottom rankings in education and the economy. “We have been very impressed with her courage and dedication to reforming the state’s school system,” she said of Martinez. Mark Veteto, president of MeTex Oil and Gas in Hobbs and another Martinez supporter, said he is saddened that Skandera has not been confirmed. He recently met with Martinez and Skandera and several state superintendents after discovering that two Hobbs teachers his company’s educational foundation had cited as outstanding educators were ranked “minimally effective” in the state’s

evaluation system. He said Martinez and Skandera convinced him that they are working to bring accountability to the teacher evaluation system, and he said he is satisfied with their response and approach. Veteto said it is tough to gauge Martinez and Skandera’s overall success rate. “I think we are seeing transition,” he said. “I don’t think the label ‘success’ or ‘failure’ can be used. The governor’s polices have not been fully implemented. If you ask me, ‘Is it successful?’ I would say, ‘It’s too early to tell.’ ” Rep. Mimi Stewart, D-Albuquerque, was not as generous. While speaking at a recent news conference to announce the new National Education Association New Mexico lawsuit against the Public Education Department, she said Martinez and Skandera — who has no teaching experience herself — have repeatedly done things their way without taking into account input from educators or the Legislature. Of the teacher evaluation system, Stewart said, “Looks to me like the whole thing is going to crash and burn — even without a lawsuit.”

17 arrested at Mo. shooting protests The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS — Seventeen people were arrested during weekend protests, St. Louis police said Sunday, and more demonstrations were planned over the shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson this summer. Organizers of the four-day Ferguson October summit are protesting the shooting of the black man by a white policeman, which sparked sometimes

Ambush suspect might lose advantage Survivalist accused in barracks attack could become more visible as leaves fall By Michael Rubinkam The Associated Press

CANADENSIS, Pa. — For the past month, ambush suspect Eric Frein has capitalized on relatively mild temperatures, dense tree cover and his own survival skills to successfully elude a manhunt in the woods of Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains. Now that it’s getting colder and the leaves are starting to fall, the advantage could soon shift to law enforcement, experts say. But the challenge remains no less daunting as police track an armed suspect — already accused of killing one officer and injuring another — in a wilderness that offers plenty of places to hide. “I wish people could understand how hard it is to find people in the woods,” said Patrick Patten, who helped track Eric Rudolph, the 1996 Atlanta Olympics bomber who eluded authorities for years in the woods of western North Carolina. “It truly is a massive undertaking.” The Sept. 12 ambush outside the Blooming Grove state police barracks killed Cpl. Bryon Dickson, seriously wounded Trooper Alex Douglass and touched off a manhunt whose scale and intensity is unrivaled in modern Pennsylvania history. Day after day, tactical teams looking for Frein creep through the woods around his parents’ home in Canadensis, using sticks and ski poles to prod the dense underbrush. Dogs sniff for explosives, weapons and ammunition — and any sign of the suspect. Troopers maintain a perimeter. At times, law enforcement has seemed tantalizingly close to Frein, the 31-year-old self-taught survivalist, war reenactor and expert marksman believed to harbor a hatred of law enforcement. Police were able to determine Frein’s direction of travel from a campsite he had used and say they’ve even laid eyes on him — from a distance. But he has proven to be elusive, and the dense forest canopy has allowed him to avoid the prying eyes of police helicopters outfitted with thermal imaging cameras. That could change once the trees are bare, giving the cameras a better shot at detecting him, said Patten, the tracking expert. Yet the lack of foliage could also work in Frein’s favor, he said, allowing him to see law enforcement from a greater distance and potentially putting officers in more danger. “Whatever works for the good guys, works for the bad guys, and whatever works for him works for us,” said Patten, founder of Tactical Woodland Operations School in North Carolina. At one point during the search for Rudolph, Patten walked 600 miles in a single 10-month span but found no sign of his quarry. Similarly, it’s not clear that authorities in the Frein manhunt have any idea where he is hiding within the 5-square-mile area they are targeting. “Not being there, I can’t criticize what they are doing,” said Larry Wilkinson, president of Tactical Tracker Training School in North Carolina. But the evidence suggests “they are still shooting the dark,” he said. “If you have guys in the woods and guys around a house” several miles away, “they have no idea where he is.”

violent demonstrations in the predominantly black St. Louis suburb of Ferguson in August. Early Sunday morning, several protesters made their way to the south St. Louis neighborhood where another black 18-year-old was killed by a white police officer recently. Protesters occupied a Quicktrip gas station convenience store and staged a sit-in. St. Louis Police Chief Sam

Dotson posted on Twitter that protesters were “attempting to storm” the business. He later posted that protesters were “throwing rocks at the police.” St. Louis police spokeswoman Schron Jackson said Sunday in an email that 17 people were arrested on suspicion of unlawful assembly. There were no reports of injuries or property damage, the email said. On Monday, a “direct action”

led by local and visiting clergy members is planned for Ferguson and other spots in and around St. Louis. Protest leaders don’t plan to release details until shortly ahead of time to avoid tipping off law enforcement. Leaders are taking their cues from the Moral Monday demonstrations that began last year in North Carolina before spreading to several other Southern states.

EL NUEVO MEXICANO Liberada por Halloween CHICAGO a muerte me rodea. Los blancos huesos de un esqueleto humano disecado están esparcidos en el frente de la casa de mi vecino. Calaveras putrefactas, costillares descarnados y cuerpos en descomposición se agitan en el viento durante las caminatas en mi barrio. Mi perro se está volviendo loco—¡pero a mí me encanta! Con todos los horrores reales de la actualidad, es liberador permitirse fantasías de zombis y virus apocalípticos, en lugar Esther de reflexionar sobre las Cepeda desgarradoras realidades Comentario del apocalipsis intelectual que enfrentamos a diario. Ésa es la belleza de Halloween — y para los hispanos que lo celebran, del Día de los Muertos. Es la única vez en el año que enfrentamos la mortalidad sin temor, sin titubeos y sin el tono callado de un tema tabú, sino con alegría y como una diversión. Las cosas tristes y estúpidas que leo en el diario todos los días generalmente me deprimen. Pero un artículo del Washington Post sobre entierros modestos y en armonía con el medio ambiente me hizo sonreír. “Jay Castaño sabe exactamente cómo va a ser su funeral,” escribió Ellen McCarthy. Citó a Castaño quien dijo, “Quiero que me envuelvan en una mortaja como un burrito. Pueden llamarlo el funeral Chipotle. Me pueden envolver y echarme allí y cubrirme con un poco de pasto y tierra.” Este hombre sabe cómo divertirse con un funeral. Castaño dijo que sus deseos son tan humildes porque “Quiero ser parte de un árbol, ser parte de una flor — volver a ser parte de la Tierra.” También dijo: “Soy amarrete.” Llamé a Castaño para preguntarle cómo había respondido su familia a este fin de vida tan pintoresco, pero no pude encontrarlo. Así pues, comencé a imaginar cómo habrían reaccionado a su declaración su anciana madre u otras parientas de edad. “Estás loca,” hubiera dicho mi propia madre si le hubiera presentado esa idea. Y después habría cambiado de tema rápidamente. Como en muchas otras familias hispanas, no se habla de la muerte en la casa de Mamá Cepeda. Tampoco se habla de testamentos, herencias, seguro de vida ni ningún otro tema relacionado con el fin de la vida. Mala onda. El fatalismo cultural de los hispanos — especialmente fuerte en los que son católicos devotos — está firmemente fundamentado en la creencia de que el futuro está en manos de Dios. Por ejemplo, si uno espera tener suficiente dinero para el pago inicial de una casa el año próximo o espera ingresar en su universidad preferida, tu mamá o tu papá hispano dirán “Si Dios quiere.” Y se acabó. Por eso uno no habla de instrucciones para los últimos momentos de la vida ni de preferencias de entierro. Y también: “¿Qué pasa, ya están planeando que yo me muera?” podría oírse decir a una madre, abuela o tía hispana. Es raro, entonces, que el Día de los Muertos sea una celebración tan grande no sólo en América Latina sino en países sumamente católicos. En México, la costumbre de honrar a los que se van es una tradición precolombina, que de alguna manera se fusionó con el Día de Todos los Santos de la fe católica. Supongo que brindó un momento sancionado para penar y celebrar, sin tentar a los hados. La muerte es algo extraño para algunos hispanos — dejando de lado el que lo entierren a uno como un burrito y la bien documentada pasión hispana de “Los muertos que andan.” En su libro The Hummingbird’s Daughter — una historia deliciosamente mexicana sobre una niña que enfrenta su destino — el poeta y novelista Luis Alberto Urrea describe una multitud congregada en torno a una cabeza cortada dentro de un frasco de farmacia, que hace una gira por la provincia para mantener a los campesinos en línea. “Todos los vaqueros se apiñaron en torno,” escribió Urrea. “Nunca habían visto una cabeza cortada. Cayetana quiso mirar hacia otro lado, pero como a todos los mexicanos, la muerte la apaciguaba y aliviaba en forma inquietante.” Por supuesto. Cuando se está en medio de las tribulaciones y absurdos de la vida, ¿qué podría ser más tranquilizador que la idea del paraíso, de la utopía — o del bendito silencio — que nos espere en el más allá? No derrochen la temporada que nos permite celebrar la muerte. Como fuente de distracción del otoño, todos debemos disfrutar de tener pensamientos negros.

U Luis Morataya de Santa Fe, practica con otros jugadores de la liga de fútbol Un Deportista Más, Un Delincuente Menos en Sweeney Elementary el mes pasado. LUIS SÁNCHEZ SATURNO/THE NEW MEXICAN

Dando gracias con el fútbol Por Uriel J. Garcia El Nuevo Mexicano

ace ya una década, Luis Morataya caminaba sobre la calle de la Colonia El Limón Zona 18, un pueblo al norte de Guatemala plagado de violencia, de camino a casa de su madre. Era una mañana de lunes como cualquier otra, recuerda. Hasta que dos hombres en motocicleta se detuvieron junto a él. El pasajero lentamente sacó una pistola negra y estaba apuntando hacia Morataya, el conductor rápidamente dijo que bajara la pistola porque “ahí está la policía.” Al volver a contar la historia recientemente, Morataya, 36, dice, “El conductor me dijo, ‘La próxima vez te vamos a matar’.” Atemorizado, Morataya empacó sus pertenencias y partió dos días después hacia los Estados Unidos, dejando atrás a su esposa, una hija de 6 años y un hijo de 8 años, mientras buscaban nuevo hogar. Llegó a Santa Fe porque conocía a gente que vivía aquí emigrando desde su mismo pueblo. Poco después, Morataya, un entusiasta jugador de fútbol que manejaba una liga exitosa en Colonia El Limón Zona 18, comenzó una liga aquí que ha crecido a 12 equipos. Morataya, un hombre bajo de cabello corto y negro, habla apasionadamente del fútbol y cómo trató de usar el deporte para salvar las vidas de niños en su pueblo en Guatemala. Su pueblo ha sido presa de la violencia con una pandilla llamada La Mara 18, una organización criminal internacional que el FBI dice que se originó en Los Ángeles. Comenta que un padre de una iglesia católica local notó que la pandilla estaba tratando de reclutar a jóvenes del pueblo. En un esfuerzo por disuadirlos de unirse a ellos, el padre contrató a Morataya, que jugaba fútbol desde su niñez, para dirigir una liga de fútbol patrocinada por la iglesia. Los padres animaban a sus hijos a participar y así la liga duró cuatro años. Pero la iglesia y la liga no pasaron desapercibidos

H

para la pandilla, que trató de imponer una cuota a la iglesia. Después de que el padre se reusó, uno de los muchachos que participaban en la liga de fútbol escuchó que miembros de la pandilla planeaban matarlo. El niño lo dijo a Morataya y éste rápidamente lo comentó con el asistente del padre. El padre decidió regresar a Italia esa misma semana. Morataya entonces se convirtió en el blanco, Morataya no se dio cuenta del peligro hasta ese lunes del 2004, cuando fue confrontado por los hombres en motocicleta. Morataya sabía que la liga desaparecería sin él y así fue, pero el no podía ignorar las amenazas. Después de llegar a Santa Fe, Morataya dijo que quería pagar a la comunidad por darle un refugio lejos de la violencia de la pandilla con la única cosa que él sabía — fútbol. Dos años después de radicar aquí, creó una liga local independiente de fútbol llamada Un Deportista Más, Un Delincuente Menos. “Estoy dando lo que puedo,” dice. “Yo sé que no es dinero, mi inglés no es muy bueno, pero el fútbol es lo que sé hacer mejor y quiero enseñarlo.” La familia de Morataya, también dejó Guatemala después de que recibieron amenazas de muerte por los mismos hombres que lo acosaron a él. Ahora Morataya trabaja como jardinero y dirige la liga para niños de manera voluntaria. Morataya entrena a 12 equipos y practican cada jueves por la tarde en el campo de fútbol de Sweeney Elementary. Cada sábado de los últimos seis años, Morataya empaca su equipo de fútbol en su camioneta y maneja hasta el parque Herb Martinez, donde se juegan los partidos de fútbol. “Podré estar enfermo o podrá estar lloviendo, pero tengo que estar ahí. No puedo fallarle a esos niños,” comenta Morataya. “Porque una vez que le fallas a uno de esos muchachos, dejan de confiar en ti.” Traducción de Patricia De Dios para The New Mexican.

nos pocos días before Halloween, Canutito estaba sentão at the table pensando. He looked up adonde Grama Cuca estaba washing los trastes después de supper. Canutito hizo clear his throat and he asked grama: “Grama, que fue la cosa más scary that ever happened to you?” “Well,” began grama, “déjame ver. Was it la vez que I heard a La Llorona crying? Was it cuando el Diablo came to church? No, I will tell you qué fue,” she said al fin. “It was the time que una pata followed me and a mi amiga Dolores desde el cemetery.” “Really grama?” Canutito asked her. Larry Torres “Did a foot Growing up really follow Spanglish you from el campo santo? Era la pata of a dead man, grama?” Canutito asked her, shivering de miedo. “Can you tell me cómo pasó?” Grama Cuca came away del sink y se sentó at the table con Canutito. “I haven’t thought about it por muchos años. I used to have una amiga que se llamaba Dolores. She used to live up the road cerca de la Acequia del Revalse. I used to like her porque era muy foneh; she could make me laugh con todos sus jokes. The only thing que I didn’t like about la Dolores es que she was muy renegada.” “What does ‘muy renegada’ mean, grama?” Canutito la interrumpió. “That means que she used to like to hacer cuss mucho,” grama replied. “In any case, una mañana late en el autumn, yo y la Dolores íbamos walking home después de la escuela. As usual, yo iba rezando …” “You were praying all the way pa’la casa?” Canutito asked grama como not really believing her. “Sí,” she affirmed. “Yo iba rezando y la Dolores, as usual, iba cussing up a storm. I told her not to renegar tanto porque si hacía continue to renegar, she was going to go straight to Hell. Pero she didn’t listen to me. She just continued to say cosas como ‘sonamagán and sanamabichi’ and I continued to pray ‘Hail Marys’ y ‘Our Fathers’. Just then we passed cerca del cemetery where un dead man had just been buried.” “I wouldn’t have passed by la grave de un hombre muerto,” Canutito said. “Nosotros no teníamos choice,” Grama Cuca said. “El campo santo estaba by the side of the road on the way pa’la casa. Just as we passed the campo santo, la Dolores dijo una real big bad word and just then we heard una noise terrible coming from the grave del hombre muerto. Dolores turned to look back y ella vio something coming out de la sepultura. ‘Run!’ she screamed. ‘La pata del hombre muerto is following us!’ Right away I could just imagine the pata del dead man following us so we began to correr.” “And was la foot del hombre muerto following you, grama?” Canutito asked todo scared. “Well I was too scared to turn y mirar pero I could heard algo following us. I kept praying y la Dolores just kept on renegando. As we got close to la Acequia del Revalse I thought, ‘ahora let’s see a quién la pata del hombre muerto is going to follow’. La Dolores veered off para su casa and I could hear a la pata chasing her. I said a prayer and I turned a ver a la pata …” Canutito se puso sus fingers into his ears porque tenía mucho miedo. “I turned to look,” dijo Grama Cuca, “and there was the white female duck que hacía belong to the dead man, following Dolores home.” “I thought que ‘la pata’ del hombre muerto was the foot of the dead man,” Canutito said todo disappointed. “I never said que ‘la pata’ was a foot,” grama smiled. “a foot is called ‘un pie’. A ‘pata’ is a female ‘pato’.” Canutito just groaned …

Goucher College allows students to submit video instead of transcript, the latest move in alternative admission trend

Fifty minutes of homework a night for fifth-graders seems about right to me — not too much to spoil the evening and not too little to freak out the parents. But what will elementary school teachers who give more than that do if they hear parents are countermanding their orders? “My fifth-grader just spent three-plus hours on her homework, which included math, writing and social studies,” said another reader. “A majority of the class did not finish and were told that they would have to stay inside during recess to work on it.” From another commenter: “If a teacher is assigning too much homework, the parents should be talking to the teacher, to other parents, and eventually to the principal.” I cannot think of a better way to make such conversations meaningful than by sending an email to the teacher and the principal explaining your family’s homework rules. You don’t need to email other parents; such news will spread. One reader said teachers

shouldn’t be blamed if a student spends a long time on math homework because he doesn’t get the concept. Really? Good teachers check for understanding regularly, and they look for ways to help students who don’t get it. They would want to know that their homework assignment took longer than it should have. Since grades are unlikely to matter much in elementary school, parents there have some maneuvering room. High school is different. There are more consequences for failing to complete work. But maybe we exaggerate the problem. For instance, 120 minutes of daily homework for seniors — the limit suggested here — is twice what most seniors do. In reality, it might not be so radical. One reader suggested students who get A’s on exams should not be required to do homework. That violates long-standing educational practice. Maybe it’s time to experiment with new approaches, like telling teachers when homework is filling time but not teaching much.

Encouraging higher-ed hopefuls to show, not tell

By Richard Pérez-Peña The New York Times

TOWSON, Md. adeline McDonough had a wistful “what if?” moment, pondering the offer that her school, Goucher College, has made to applicants: Instead of showing us your grades, send us a video. “I really wish there had been options like that when I was applying to college,” said McDonough, 19, a junior studying sociology. “I didn’t have the best numbers, and I was stressed, worrying about how to show that I deserved the same opportunities as anyone else.” Under the policy announced this month by Goucher, a 1,400-student liberal arts college near Baltimore, a prospective student may apply by submitting two pieces of work (at least one of them a graded high school writing assignment) and a two-minute video, rather than a high school transcript. José A. Bowen, Goucher’s new president, readily admits that he has no idea how many applicants will go that route, how many will be accepted or whether they will work out. “This is an experiment, and there are plenty of reasonable objections,” he said. “We’re going to track these students, and we’ll really know in a year. If the kids who did video apps do worse than others, we’ll stop. If they do just as well or better, colleges around the country will be doing it.” Students, parents and academics have long complained that competition for admission to highly selective colleges has become an overwhelming ordeal that favors bright but conventional, privileged worker bees over peers whose trials or quirks have gotten in the way of school. That is one of the criticisms in a much-discussed new book, Excellent Sheep, by William Deresiewicz, and a growing number of colleges have tried to address it. As recently as the 1990s, there were only a handful of selective colleges that did not demand to see applicants’ ACT or SAT scores, but now there are dozens, including Bowdoin, Smith, Holy Cross, Brandeis, Wake Forest and the University of Texas, and more join the list every year. In the past

The policy was ushered in by José A. Bowen, above, Goucher’s new president. PHOTOS BY NATE PESCE THE NEW YORK TIMES

few years, some top colleges have invited students to supplement their applications with a video. Last year, Bard College went a step further, making transcripts optional, offering the alternative of an entrance exam consisting of four 2,500-word essays on a choice of scholarly topics, graded by professors. Now, Goucher, which was already test-optional, has raised — or lowered — the stakes, with a far less rigorous option. Last month, Bennington College announced that an applicant may submit a collection of work rather than a standard application. While the college would prefer that the submission include a transcript, it is not absolutely required. The change at Goucher is characteristic of Bowen, a charismatic jazz musician and composer who took over the college in July. He bubbles with ideas about how to make higher education better and more inclusive, and talks about doing away with grades, having students declare a mission rather than a major, and coming up with new ways to assess how students grow. The video application drew scattered charges that Goucher’s move was a lowering of standards, a gimmick to draw attention and more applications, or both. In The Chronicle of Higher Education, Brian C. Rosenberg, president

SmartBoard STUDENT SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS SWORN IN Former New Mexico Supreme Court Justice Patricio Serna swore in senior Blanca Ortiz of Capital High School, senior Melissa Willamson of the Academy at Larragoite and junior Maya Griswold of Santa Fe High School last week as the three new student advisers to the school board. These teen members usually take part in board discussions and offer opinions, but they do not have the power to cast a vote. Interested students can ask their principals for an application next year.

of Macalester College, wrote, “This move sends an awful message to high school students and to a broader public that is already fed a steady diet of nonsense about the nature and value of education.” Robert J. Sternberg, a professor of human development at Cornell and an author of books on teaching and intelligence, said, “A video can measure creativity, initiative and practical skills in a way a typical standardized assessment does not,” but it is not “a substitute for a high school transcript.” “The video is also susceptible to bias in scoring,” he added, “for example, with regard to the attractiveness, ethnicity, weight or other perceived physical features of the video-maker.” But in general, reactions in higher education have been muted, with people voicing skepticism rather than condemnation — perhaps because Goucher, which accepts more than 70 percent of its applicants, is not risking the same kind of reputation as the most competitive colleges. Those elite schools still have far more demand than supply, but for other small colleges, this is a nervous time. The number of college-age Americans is stagnant, consumers object more to rising costs and student debt, and cheaper, online alternatives are growing. Even with private

colleges offering discounts, some have had trouble drawing enough students, and many others wonder if that will soon be their lot, too. Bowen says Goucher’s new policy does not reflect a concern about enrollment, though the number of applications has slipped in recent years. It may turn out that few people take Goucher up on the video offer; at Bard, just 41 of almost 7,000 applicants took the no-transcript route last year, though that was partly because it demanded a lot of work. Maria Venturelli, a first-year student at Goucher, said students mostly liked the video idea, though many of them wondered if two minutes was long enough for an applicant to make an impression, or for the college to make a judgment. “There is something very genuine about a video,” said Venturelli, 18. It fits the nature of the admissions process, she said, in which “you have to be a little narcissistic and sell yourself to the college.” The video, Bowen said, resembles what happens in the real world, in a job interview. “All things being equal, I’d rather have a transcript,” he conceded. “Let’s say you’re a doctor. All things being equal, you’d rather have all of the tests done on every patient, but you can’t. Each of those tests comes at a cost.”

Turquoise Trail started out as the brainchild of former Superintendent Eddie Ortiz as a place to incubate new ideas from a group of “troublesome teachers,” i.e., the non-conformist, forward-thinking “educators” who couldn’t and wouldn’t bend to irksome intrusions from their schools’ administrators. MY VIEW In 1995, Turquoise FRED FLATT Trail became a charter school under a new law that had recently been passed. As an active parent, I volunteered to be on the Finance Committee and had no idea how badly the school district would treat this headstrong bunch of “progressives.” It was Friday of the week before school started, summer of 1995, and the district had given us no money, so we placed a call to SFPS headquarters to get a meeting to find out how we were going to proceed. We (nine parents and teachers) were to meet the superintendent at district headquarters on Monday and were told that the superintendent, Yvonne Gonzalez (yes, the one who spent a couple of years in federal prison for embezzling from the Dallas School District when she was superintendent there), would most assuredly be there. She didn’t show, and we were told that she wasn’t in the building. She was in her office. That little lie was the rocky beginning of years of bad treatment, but we were tenacious. A meeting was finally arranged and education went on. At the end of that year, the state Education Department had to arrange a special meeting between Turquoise Trail and the school district administration to determine how much money the school would get for the coming school year. We at Turquoise Trail had come up with a budget that the state considered to be reasonable, but SFPS dug in its heels, to the point that the state proceeded to place a restriction on the district’s budget, meaning that SFPS would get no money until they settled up with Turquoise Trail. That wasn’t the last time the district acted so irresponsibly with your taxpayer dollars. This intransigence by Santa Fe Public Schools continued for another two years, with the state forcing the district to meet with us and placing the restriction on the district that it would not get any money until it came to its senses and settled with Turquoise Trail. In case you’re thinking that this is (was) no way to run a school district, maybe you are a potential candidate for the school board. Along the way, Turquoise Trail had received a federal grant worth somewhere around $450,000. The school district demanded that we turn that money over to them, but we refused. If we had turned the money over to them, it would have disappeared along with the other $2.6 million budget deficit (remember that?) that the district had incurred! We used that money to fund a reading program that we then shared with the district. Turquoise Trail was one of five charter schools in New Mexico that came into existence in 1995, and the only one remaining of those five. It takes a lot of effort to make a charter school work. Given that Turquoise Trail has persevered, innovated and progressed against overwhelming odds, I think it has shown that it deserves to be given the chance to thrive even more than it has previously. Go for it! Fred Flatt was very active at Turquoise Trail Charter School and later at the Academy for Technology and the Classics charter school. He also was appointed to the city’s Ethics and Campaign Review Board at its inception.

Species observed to be slowly evolving

Polio cases on rise in Pakistan By Tim Craig The Washington Post

By Rachel Feltman The Washington Post

Scientists believe that the mimic frog, which is dividing into two increasingly distinct populations in Peru, may be on its way to speciation — a division into multiple species. Ranitomeya imitator is a poison dart frog that mimics one of two other poison species. One has yellow and black stripes on its body and blue spotted legs, and the other has an orange head that fades to blue legs, with black spots all over. In an August Nature Communications study, researchers reported that these frogs might be the first vertebrates ever observed splitting into two species because of distinct mimicry. Only one other animal of any kind (a butterfly) has been

observed doing the same, National Geographic reported. Experiments confirmed that the frog populations are already wary of interbreeding with one another. This preference could lead to speciation within the next several thousand years, study co-author Kyle Summers, an evolutionary biologist at East Carolina University in Greenville, told National Geographic. The preference “suggests there has been some sort of negative consequence of breeding with the wrong morph,” he said. These distinct colorings serve as giant “keep away” signs for predators, especially when they’re used by multiple species of poison frog. It’s possible that the mixing of two types leads to offspring that look like neither, making predators more

likely to take a bite. It’s not for certain that the color mimicry itself is what’s driving the schism. Scientists would have to make sure that other differences —

like calls — didn’t exist to help pull them apart. “The mate choice trials we conducted were done using actual frogs, so it is possible that the mating preference was based on some other, less obvious cue,” said Evan Twomey, lead author of the study and a Ph.D. student in Summers’ lab. “It would be very interesting to follow up this study with an experiment to determine if color alone is responsible for the mating preferences we observed.” But if these frogs continue to show such a strong preference for one half of their species over the other, then more and more differences will arise between the populations as generations pass. And eventually, they may not be interested in mingling at all.

Replication of disease in petri dishes could accelerate drug research Neurologists Doo Yeon Kim, left, and Rudolph Tanzi stand Friday in front of a colored slide of neurons in green and plaque in orange, at Massachusetts General Hospital in Charlestown, Mass. DOMINICK REUTER/THE NEW YORK TIMES

‘Alzheimer’s in a Dish’ a ‘game changer’ By Gina Kolata The New York Times

or the first time, and to the astonishment of many of their colleagues, researchers created what they call Alzheimer’s in a Dish — a petri dish with human brain cells that develop the telltale structures of Alzheimer’s disease. In doing so, they resolved a longstanding problem of how to study Alzheimer’s and search for drugs to treat it — the best they had until now were mice that developed an imperfect form of the disease. The key to their success, said the lead researcher, Dr. Rudolph E. Tanzi of Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, was a suggestion by his colleague Doo Yeon Kim to grow human brain cells in a gel where they formed networks as in an actual brain. They gave the neurons genes for Alzheimer’s disease. Within weeks they saw the hard Brillo-like clumps known as plaques and then the twisted spaghetti-like coils known as tangles — the defining features of Alzheimer’s disease. The work, which also offers strong support for an old idea about how the disease progresses, was published in Nature on Sunday. Leading researchers said it should have a big effect. “It is a giant step forward for the field,” said Dr. P. Murali Doraiswamy, an Alzheimer’s researcher at Duke University. “It could dramatically accelerate testing of new drug candidates.” Of course, a petri dish is not a brain and the petri dish system lacks certain crucial components, like immune system cells, that appear to

contribute to the devastation once Alzheimer’s gets started. But it allows researchers to quickly, cheaply and easily test drugs that might stop the process in the first place. The crucial step, of course, will be to see if drugs that work in this system stop Alzheimer’s in patients. The discovery, said Dr. Sam Gandy of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York, is “a real game changer” and “a paradigm shifter.” He added, “I’m really enthusiastic to take a crack at this in my lab.” Karen Duff, an Alzheimer’s researcher at Columbia University, praised the work as “a tour de force” but cautioned that once Alzheimer’s starts, tangles can take off on their own and may need to be attacked by drugs that strike them specifically in order to stop devastation in the brain. Tanzi is now starting an ambitious project to test 1,200 drugs on the market and 5,000 experimental ones that have finished the first phase of clinical testing — a project that is impossible with mice, for which each drug test takes a year. With their petri dish system, Tanzi said, “we can test hundreds of thousands of drugs in a matter of months.” He already has used his system to look at drugs designed to prevent the formation of amyloid, the protein that clumps into plaques. The drugs, he reports, prevented both plaques and tangles in the petri dishes. Some are in clinical trials and it is not known if they work in people. One was tested in patients and failed because it was too toxic. One hope is to find drugs for other diseases that are known to be safe and work on Alzheim-

er’s in the petri dish. He also found an enzyme needed to make tangles after plaques are present. When he blocked that enzyme, plaques formed but not tangles. The enzyme is another potential drug target, he said. Gandy wants to use the system to study the effects of genes that predispose someone to have Alzheimer’s, especially the most powerful one, APoE4, which contributes to about half of all Alzheimer’s cases. No one really knows how or why it is linked to the disease, Gandy said. “I think I would go after that to begin with,” he said. Tanzi said that once his group had gotten the idea of growing neurons in a gel, setting up Alzheimer’s in a dish system had been straightforward. Group members used human embryonic stem cells — those cells that can become any cell of the body — and grew them with a mixture of chemicals that made them turn into neurons. They gave those neurons Alzheimer’s genes and grew them in wells in petri dishes that were lined with a commercially available gel. Then they waited. “Sure enough, we saw plaques, real plaques,” Tanzi said. “We waited and then we saw tangles, actual tangles. It looks like you are looking at an Alzheimer brain.” All that was required to start the process was the Alzheimer’s gene, which made cells produce an excessive amount of a normal protein, beta amyloid. Previously, researchers had tried to grow the disease in a dish of liquid but the neurons did not connect or develop plaques and tangles.

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — As world health officials struggle to respond to the Ebola epidemic, Pakistan has passed a grim milestone in its efforts to combat another major global health crisis: the fight against polio. Over the weekend, Pakistan logged its 200th new polio case of 2014, the nation’s highest transmission rate in more than a dozen years. The spread has alarmed Pakistani and international health experts and is raising fresh doubt about the country’s ability to combat this or future disease outbreaks. By Tuesday, the number of new polio cases in Pakistan stood at 202, and officials are bracing for potentially dozens more cases by year’s end. Pakistan now accounts for 80 percent of global cases and is one of only three countries at risk of exporting the disease outside its borders, according to the World Health Organization. “It’s an emergency, a public health emergency,” said Ayesha Raza Farooq, the polio eradication coordinator for Pakistan’s government. “We want to limit the virus outside of our boundaries, and want to work to control it in our boundaries, but it’s certainly a very challenging situation ahead.” Pakistan has struggled to shed its title as one of the last remaining countries with an active polio virus for years, mostly because of troubles it faces in vaccinating children. In far-flung areas of the country, some parents and religious leaders are skeptical of the vaccine, requiring considerable faceto-face outreach by vaccination teams. But the Pakistani Taliban and other Islamist militants have waged a brutal campaign against those teams, killing more than 50 health workers and security officials since 2012. The attacks began after it was discovered that the CIA had used a vaccination campaign to gain information about Osama bin Laden’s whereabouts. In May, after new polio cases in Iraq and Syria were linked to travelers from Pakistan, the WHO declared Pakistan’s polio crisis an “extraordinary event” mandating an immediate international response. Ebola is the only other disease that is currently designated by the WHO as a global public health emergency. In response to the WHO declaration, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif vowed to redouble efforts to vaccinate children through house-to-house searches and checkpoints along major travel routes. Pakistan also set up mandatory polio vaccination clinics at airports. After the Pakistani military launched an operation against militants in North Waziristan in June, more than 1 million residents fled their homes and resettled in other areas of the country. The displaced included about 350,000 children whom officials fear have never been vaccinated. “It’s like if you break the walls on a dam, the waters come down on the village,” said Bilal Ahmed, a UNICEF health specialist in northwestern Pakistan. “There was high movement of the virus.” Relief workers were able to administer 700,000 vaccines to displaced residents this summer. But advocates say the government was distracted by last month’s protests in Islamabad calling on Sharif to resign, hampering follow-through on the country’s polio eradication efforts. But the capital is once again calm, and health experts say they hope Sharif is capable of confronting the threat. Aziz Memon, chairman of the Pakistan PolioPlus Committee, said he met with government leaders last week and gave them a dire assessment of the problem. “I explained to them: This is no longer an emergency, this has become an outbreak,” Memon said. “The government needs to take full ownership ...” Though the United States eradicated polio within its borders by 1979, there remained more than 350,000 cases worldwide as recently as 1988. Over the past two decades, however, the global fight against polio made enormous strides. The virus remains endemic in only Pakistan, Nigeria and Afghanistan. Afghanistan has recorded 10 cases this year while Nigeria has recorded six, according to the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. Due to lackluster vaccination protocols and security, the WHO believes Pakistan, as well as Syria and Cameroon, are the only countries at risk of exporting the disease. In Pakistan, officials say they are optimistic that they can make considerable progress vaccinating children this winter and spring. They point to neighboring India, which earlier this year was declared poliofree. As recently as 2009, there were more than 700 annual polio cases in India. But after an aggressive immunization program, that number had dropped to 74 in 2010 and just one in 2011, officials said. Ahmed and other UNICEF officials said a key focus will be recruiting more women to serve on the vaccination teams. In conservative and rural parts of the country, he said, parents are more prone to allow a woman into the house than a man. Still, it remains unclear if such efforts will be enough to prevent the WHO from issuing formal travel restrictions or other sanctions against Pakistan.

Abortion clinics: More calls, longer waits The Associated Press

HOUSTON — The eight remaining abortion clinics in Texas are reporting a spike in the number of phone calls and longer waits for appointments after a federal court allowed enforcement of the last of Texas’ new abortion regulations. The Houston Chronicle reported Sunday its analysis of data shows Texas has 75 percent fewer abortion clinics than two years ago, among the fewest per capita anywhere in the nation and the smallest number of clinics open since the 1970s. A dozen abortion facilities closed after a 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel on Oct. 2 allowed the state to enforce tough clinic laws passed by the Texas Legislature and

signed by Gov. Rick Perry last year. The full 5th Circuit last week declined to reconsider the ruling and abortion rights supporters now have asked the Supreme Court to intervene. A spokesman for the Austin Planned Parenthood facility told the newspaper it received seven times as many calls as normal last week, with many of the calls from far-away cities such as Midland and McAllen, where abortion access has disappeared. In Texas, two clinics now are open in Houston, Dallas and San Antonio. Austin and Fort Worth each have one. Ken Lambrecht, president and CEO of the Planned Parenthood clinic in Dallas, said he was anticipating a jump in calls but not from so many women hun-

Farm bill delay could hurt cotton farmers LUBBOCK, Texas — Cotton growers in Southwestern states plagued by years of drought may plant fewer acres next season because of a bureaucratic delay in implementing a provision of the farm bill. The U.S. Agriculture Department was supposed to calculate production yields for all commodities by county in time for the 2015 crop year. But it now says its Risk Management Agency can’t do that until the 2016 crop year. The delay is expected to reduce the amount of crop insurance available for purchase by growers because they won’t be able to exclude years of eroded production caused by the last decade of drought. Farm lenders use such production stats in determining loans. Cotton growers, unlike other commodity producers who have other layers of financial protection, are expected to be hardest hit by the delay. “It’s just critical that they get it done,” said Steve Verett, spokesman for the Lubbockbased Plains Cotton Growers, which represents cotton growers in 41 counties on the High Plains, the world’s largest contiguous growing patch. “Folks at RMA understand the importance, but they’ve set priorities to do certain things and this is not one of the priorities.” The Associated Press

dreds of miles away. He told the newspaper that when a mother seeking an abortion for her daughter was told the next available appointment wasn’t for another three weeks, she said: “We might as well go to Mexico.” Then she hung up, Lambrecht said. “It’s hard to explain because in a way, it’s exactly what we expected, but at the same time, it’s something completely different and something we didn’t plan for because we couldn’t,” Lambrecht said. Planned Parenthood in Houston spokeswoman Rochelle Tafolla said calls have been up 170 percent in the week after the 5th Circuit panel’s ruling. The Chronicle analysis of

data shows about 750,000 Texas women of reproductive age now live more than 200 miles away from an abortion clinic.

Castro and the rest of the workers committee alleged that Ibarra made “nasty” comments to them, tried to set up afterhours meetings with certain female janitors and practiced favoritism. Female janitors were offered free time or other perks if Ibarra liked them, the workers committee said. Male janitors claimed the hostile workplace extended to them because Ibarra fired men to open slots for women. The trouble became public in November 2008, when five of the female janitors accused Ibarra of sexual harassment in a complaint filed with the state. Bobbie Gutierrez, then the Santa Fe school superintendent, met with the janitors to hear their grievances. Soon after, on Dec. 3, 2008, executives of Merchants Building Maintenance brought together the janitors for a meeting of their own. A company vice president, Marco Ferrel, later told the National Labor Relations Board that he wanted the janitors to bring their concerns to the company, which paid their salaries. Janitors said the message was more threatening. They said company supervisors told them to stop sending letters to the school district because the ruckus could cost Merchants Building Maintenance its contract. Nineteen janitors later wrote to the company president, saying they were being threatened with dismissal because they had complained about sexual harassment in the workplace. In January 2009, Ferrel told the janitors the school district had suspended Ibarra and was investigating their complaints. Ibarra subsequently retired. Castro said the employees’ mood brightened. The trouble

Molinar was in possession of a loaded Smith and Wesson 9 mm semi-automatic pistol. Also arrested during the stop was Astrid Calzadillas, 22, of Santa Fe. She had a Municipal Court warrant for her arrest.

One of several janitors fired by a company that had a contract with Santa Fe Public Schools. Years after they claimed they were victims of retaliation because they had organized for better working conditions, the janitors have received a $130,000 settlement. and conflict seemed to be over. Instead it deepened. Janitors said the company by then had a code name for those on the workers committee — “Los Probelmáticos.” They quoted one company supervisor as saying they would be fired at the next opportunity because they had organized a workers committee. Throughout the investigation by the National Labor Relations Board, executives of Merchants Building Maintenance said there was no retaliation against workers, complainants or not. But in the summer of 2009, Merchants Building Maintenance fired 21 of the janitors before the school year began. The workers, with nothing more to lose, asked the National Labor Relations Board to investigate their firings. They alleged retaliation because they had organized for better working conditions. A judge of the National Labor Relations Board ruled for the fired janitors in 2010, ordering the company to reinstate them with back pay. Instead, Merchants Building Maintenance appealed the decision twice, first to members of the National Labor Relations Board and then to federal court. The company argued that the janitors failed to submit timely applications to keep their jobs. They were told they had to reapply after most were laid off during the school district’s summer break.

Office says Hughes then drove off with the girls.

Labor Relations Board rejected the company’s claim. They said Merchants Building Maintenance promised to solicit applications from the established janitors but never did. The company also gave another reason for the firings. It had checked the janitors’ Social Security numbers and concluded that they were ineligible to work in the United States. Truth is, Merchants Building Maintenance had never shown any interest in the immigration status of its Santa Fe janitors until they organized and complained about working conditions. The National Labor Relations Board said the company’s belated interest in whether the janitors had valid Social Security numbers was a pretext to justify the firings. Board members also found that the company’s checking of Social Security numbers actually occurred after it had decided to oust the janitors. Even the company admitted that what it turned up from the Social Security Administration was not conclusive evidence that the janitors were in the country unlawfully. The company finally agreed to mediation, and the settlement with the fired janitors was brokered this year. Merchants Building Maintenance no longer has a contract with the Santa Fe Public Schools, so the janitors could not get back their jobs, even if they wanted to.

But last Friday night, 16 of the janitors who were fired received their checks for back pay and interest. They held a small celebration with the people who run Somos Un Pueblo Unido. Five other janitors who were fired had moved away and couldn’t be located. The 16 who will share in the $130,000 settlement are entitled to different amounts. Some landed other jobs, so they could only collect the difference in what they would have made as school janitors. Castro said she was surprised after all these years to receive any money. She works now as a pet groomer. Somos Un Pueblo Unido has helped other workers form committees because of wage disputes or working conditions. These groups have prevailed in 10 of 11 cases investigated by the National Labor Relations Board. They included disputes over wages or working conditions with a hotel, a car wash and a tortilla company. Some people will say the workers were probably in the country unlawfully and they shouldn’t get anything. Yet the companies hired them, perhaps because they thought they had control over vulnerable people unlikely to complain about unpaid wages or dangerous working conditions. In New Mexico, unions may be waning and weak. But a labor movement lives. The worker committees coached by Somos Un Pueblo Unido are relentless.

"On October 8, 2014, it was time to travel on to a healthy and happier place where my daughter, Nycole Forte; parents Frances and Manuel Armijo and sister, Patti Armijo, await me. Before I left, I reflected back on what I was able to accomplish. I worked for 25 years for the NM State Personnel Office; 4 years as Director of Human Resources for the NM General Services Department; 9 years for the NM State Legislature as Committee Secretary for Capital Outlay Projects, Tax and Revenue. I volunteered for charitable organizations including: Open Hands, St. Vincent Hospital Auxiliary, Santa Fe Fiesta Council, The Taste of Santa Fe and most importantly, the American Cancer Society along with its Reach to Recovery Program. During this time I reached thousands of women by organizing and implementing seminars on breast cancer awareness. Every one of my health care providers made presentations at these seminars which were held annually for five years. They included my oncologist, radiologist, surgeon and counselor and special friend Melinda Pike, a breast cancer survivor. I was honored to have been selected as one of New Mexico’s Outstanding Women, a program which was organized to provide recognition for the contributions to society which women have made. This past year was very difficult, but I was able to get through with the support and love of my sons: Mark Forte and wife Rebecca, and A. J. Forte; sister Loretta and brother-in-law Porky Lithgow; brother Fred Armijo; close sister-like friends: Margie G. Martinez, Jessica Arias, Patsy Montoya and Emma Lopez; and daughter-like Amanda Lujan. There were many family and friends that I was unable to visit with but I did receive and felt their love and prayers. Tebo, my shih-szu puppy gave me a special love and support.

n behalf of the Interfaith Coalition for Public Education, we applaud The New Mexican for reinstating the weekly Education page on Mondays. The need for balanced information on the many key issues facing our schools, our teachers and our parents is critical if we are to graduate all of our students, ready for careers and college. The coalition endorses the alignment of community groups working in our schools, and the collective impact of initiatives of the mayor and the Santa Fe Community Foundation in support of the Santa Fe Public Schools, our school board and our teachers and students.

Corruption remains It seems that every campaigning politician from time immemorial has promised to fight or even end corruption. Yet corruption remains; there should have been ample time to end it. One might therefore deduce that the voters are in the habit of electing incompetent liars.

in November for a Republican or Democrat, you should ask these questions about the candidate and his or her party. What candidate and which party is against health care for all citizens, immigration reform, raising the minimum wage, Medicare and Social Security as we now know it — all things that would generally benefit not myself, but others. So, let me ask you: “If you and your candidate are just for yourself, what are you?” I’ll let you decide. Herman I. Morris

Fire department kudos We had a possible fire incident at our place of business in downtown Santa Fe on Oct. 1. The fire department was called and responded imme-

diately. When firefighters arrived, they were very thorough about looking for the cause of smoke. Luckily, all was fine. I commend them for their professionalism, politeness, their care not to damage any of our property and to ensure everything was back in place. It makes one feel secure that we are well taken care of by the Santa Fe Fire Department. Linda Evans

Mine deeper Concerning statements by opponents of the La Bajada mine that it would “destroy the mesa’s scenic views”: A “scenic view” is in the eyes of the beholder. Who has noticed the gypsum mine at the base of the mesa, east of Interstate 25?

The legitimacy of a moratorium on mining to prepare a new county land use code is questionable. The moratorium could result in a code that would pre-empt the permit application, after the fact. The regulations pertaining to federal land and/or minerals require an environmental assessment of a permit application if the area is not closed to development by an existing federal land use plan. A county land use code would have no effect. A permit would be issued with stipulations to mitigate impacts provided there are no “significant” environmental impacts. Could an impact on an alleged “scenic view” be considered “significant”? To avoid a lawsuit, the Santa Fe County Commission should consider this approach. Bill Dalness

COMMENTARY: ANDRE M. PERRY

Black men need to drop macho pose GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. or parents, talking to children about sex is a universal struggle. But the failure to fulfill this responsibility is having particularly devastating consequences for black Americans, who experience teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases at much higher rates than whites. The rate of new HIV infections is eight times higher for African Americans, the teen birth rate is two times higher, and sexual assault occurs at a higher rate as well. There are various social reasons for these disparities. But for black men in particular, masculinity too often gets in the way of discussions about sex. Our culture of hypermasculinity hits black men hard, prizing dominance, sexual prowess and aggression — qualities that impede honest communication and healthy intimate relationships. If we are going to eliminate the racial disparities in sexual health, black men must learn more effective ways to talk to their children and partners. October is “Let’s Talk” month, during which sex education providers and advocates across the country encourage parents to communicate with their children about sex, sexuality and relationships. We know that if we want young people to have a healthy and responsible approach to sex, structured conversations work. In particular, school-based sex education programs that include parental involvement can delay sex. Analysis of one such program — “Get Real: Comprehensive Sex Education That Works,” developed by the Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts — showed that this approach was particularly effective for

boys. In middle schools that taught the program, 16 percent fewer boys had sex by the end of eighth grade compared to peers in schools where it wasn’t taught. Boys who completed family activities during the first year of the program also delayed sex. “Get Real” offers good news to an otherwise mixed field — many school programs that include parents have not shown similar success. That’s because parents often lack requisite information, conviction and methods to have effective conversations. Many parents need developmentally and culturally appropriate guides to have serious discussions on sex with their children. This is particularly important for African American men, for whom masculine ideals can distort conversations about sex and relationships. Researchers use the term hypermasculinity to describe behaviors that exaggerate traditional masculine beliefs. The traditional man responsibly takes on the role of leader and breadwinner and competes aggressively while maintaining cold stoicism. The traditional man is impervious to pain, both physical and emotional. He naturally averts feminine interests, but instinctively knows how to please a woman. These notions of masculinity discourage the democratic communication needed to impart healthy ideas about sex. This helps explain the NFL’s problems with women, fraternities’ frequency of sexual abuse and our society’s rate of intimate partner violence. The disturbing concurrence of sex and violence exposes a major reason why many parent-involved sex education programs don’t work, particularly in black communities. Black women are victims

of partner violence at a rate 35 percent higher than white women. Even singleparent homes — in which two-thirds of all African American children are raised — perpetuate the problem, as men and boys without positive role models are more likely to be in abusive relationships. An unhealthy sexual relationship shouldn’t be overlooked as a part of domestic violence. Abusive men often attempt to control their partners’ reproductive health, coercing them into unprotected sex, hiding birth control pills or forcing them to have a baby. Hypermasculinity confuses and conflates violence with sex. Certainly, black men aren’t alone in the struggle between hypermasculinity and healthy sexual partnerships. But in STD statistics and high-profile stories of abuse, we see that the consequences for our sons and daughters have been dire. Not talking about STDs reflects the expectation that we’re not supposed to express pain. Not denouncing domestic violence categorically is rooted in a false notion that men have a dominant role in a relationship. We’re not doing our children any favors with these attitudes. Black men must abandon the ideals of traditional masculinity if positive communication is ever going to occur. If we’re going to improve our relationships and sexual health outcomes, parents must see themselves as the first teachers of sexual health. Andre M. Perry is the founding dean of urban education at Davenport University in Grand Rapids, Mich. This commentary was written for The Washington Post, where it first appeared.

n the very day its beloved Seahawks played the Washington football team, the Seattle City Council was taking a step forward in a different kind of battle — this one, for equality, justice and a view of history that is both inclusive and accurate. Through resolution, the Seattle council voted to commemorate Indigenous People’s Day on the second Monday in October, the federal holiday that marks Columbus Day. It’s nonbinding, but as a symbolic gesture, we find it appropriate. Columbus, of course, is the controversial Italian explorer who sailed across the ocean to “discover” a land that was already inhabited, claiming it in the name of Spain. Made a federal holiday in 1937 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt after the Knights of Columbus campaigned in favor, Columbus Day is proving ever-more controversial (kind of like the football team whose nickname is a racial slur.) In New Mexico, a state where Native people make up 10.6 percent of the population — one of the highest percentages of any state after Alaska and Oklahoma — the idea that anyone had to discover this land is offensive. There was a mutual discovery. For the Indians living here, there was the moment of contact with the armor-clad strangers on horses. Those Spanish explorers found a land lacking the gold and silver they originally were seeking. Instead, they found a place rich in beauty and opportunity. Over the century, the two peoples learned to live together with respect and understanding. Yet, in New Mexico, as in the rest of the United States, we still celebrate Columbus Day. This, despite a growing understanding of the past and the offenses that Columbus committed against Native people. Even when considered as a man of his time, Columbus does not deserve the recognition of a federal holiday. Still, he has one. Absent a nationwide effort to correct history, we see nothing wrong with Santa Fe and other New Mexico cities joining Seattle and Minneapolis as places that are saying, goodbye, Columbus. Pass a council resolution to commemorate Indigenous People’s Day. Encourage the state Legislature to do the same. Remember to tell one and all that even the bravest explorer cannot discover people who already live here. Such truths are not a rewriting of history. They are a correction of a less-than-factual record that conveniently told only one thread of a complicated story. One day, the football team in Washington, D.C., will have a different mascot. One day, the second Monday in October will celebrate the original people of this nation, the people who met the boat, not the explorer whose ignorance left so many dead or suffering. In Seattle, that day is now. Santa Fe should be next.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Oct. 13, 1914: Clovis — Mrs. J.R. Walker, wife of the proprietor of Walker’s Market, was bitten by a large tarantula at their farmhouse near town Tuesday, while in the act of placing her hand on a mop to clean the kitchen linoleum, the insect being hidden in the mop. She summoned Mr. Walker by phone, and within several minutes Dr. Dillon was administering to the wound. The hand was already swollen, so the doctor cut it allowing a liberal amount of blood to flow, and with it the poison. Oct. 13, 1964: Glens Falls, N.Y. — Two determined young mothers battling over an English-made bicycle on sale for $10 planted their feet on the bike today for a second day of their “tug-of-war.” Today, the store manager made them comfortable in lawn chairs in a corner of his store and supplied newspapers and coffee. Each of the women had good claim to the bike but the teenaged daughter of one claimed the bike first and then it was announced that the sale was to be made only to persons over 18 so the other woman grabbed it. And how do their husbands feel? Impartial. They took one look at their wives last night and walked off. Oct. 13, 1989: Racism against Hispanics in the United States is rooted in the centuries-old “Black Legend,” which depicted the Spanish as ruthless conquerors of American Indians, a historian said Thursday at a symposium on Christopher Columbus’ landing in the New World. Spain’s Anglo rivals used the legend to justify their expansion into the New World, where they competed against the Spanish, said Stan Hordes, a former New Mexico state historian and now a history consultant.

estaron makes an eco-friendly pesticide derived from spider venom. Bagaveev uses 3-D printers to make rocket engines for nanosatellites. Transatomic Power is developing a next-generation reactor that runs on nuclear waste. They all have one thing in common: money from Silicon Valley venture capitalists. After years of shying away from science, engineering and clean-technology startups, investors are beginning to take an interest in them again, raising hopes among entrepreneurs in those areas that a long slump is finally over. But these startups face intense pressure to prove that their science can turn a profit more quickly than hot tech companies like Snapchat and Uber. In August, the Founders Fund, which has backed social networks like Facebook and Yammer and the streamingmusic service Spotify, announced a $2 million investment in Transatomic Power of Cambridge, Mass. Days earlier, Y Combinator, known for aiding Web and mobileapp startups like the social news site Reddit and the game maker Omgpop, took part in a $1.5 million early investment in Helion Energy, which is developing an engine powered by nuclear fusion. And last month, Google said it was buying Lift Labs, a San Francisco biotechnology startup that makes a high-tech spoon for people with hand tremors. “We’re trying to revolutionize pesticides,” said John Sorenson, a former genetics researcher and Vestaron’s chief executive, who for years struggled to find investors as he watched other startups, like Snapchat and Square, raise many millions of dollars. Vestaron finally closed its third round of financing last month. “Thankfully, venture funders are starting to invest again in real, hard-core science and innovation,” Sorenson said. Overall, industrial and energy startups attracted $1.24 billion in venture capital financing in the first half of 2014, more than twice as much as in the period a year earlier, according to statistics from the National Venture Capital Association. Still, investment remains well below peaks reached in 2008, when industrial and energy startups attracted $4.64 billion. Investment in biotechnology startups rose 26 percent in the first half of 2014, to $2.93 billion, from the period a year earlier and is on track to exceed the 2008 peak of $5.14 billion. The investments are still dwarfed by the money pouring into other kinds of technology companies, especially those offering Web and mobile services. Software startups attracted $11.2 billion in venture capital financing last year, 85 percent more than in 2008. Investors partly feel betrayed by the billions of dollars they lost on the clean-tech boom and bust, when backers of solar panels, algae biofuels

and futuristic batteries promised to change the world, but the companies mostly flopped. That experience has made investors wary of sciencebased startups with long development timelines in still nascent or heavily regulated markets. But there is a growing feeling, investors say, that Silicon Valley has been avoiding the world’s more difficult problems, a sentiment captured by a Founders Fund motto: “We wanted flying cars, instead we got 140 characters.” That unease is compounded by a sense that the field of consumer Internet companies has become impossibly crowded. To succeed, investors say, a company must break away from the pack. “I’m just so interested in anything that gets me closer to an Iron Man suit,” said Adam Draper, the chief executive and founder of Boost VC. One of the companies that Boost has mentored or coached is Bagaveev, a startup using 3-D printers to make rocket engines that launch nanosatellites, a type of satellite that may weigh as little as a couple of pounds, into orbit. “Social media’s already happened. VC funding is supposed to be about funding what comes next.” Transatomic Power, founded in 2011 by nuclear scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is in the early stages of developing small-scale molten-salt reactors that could generate reliable, clean energy without creating nuclear waste. The technology is from the 1960s, but Transatomic Power is developing new designs, using its financing to run tests on materials and models. The startup would need far more funding, or a partner, to start building the reactors. “The world needs a source of stable, cheap electricity, and a new approach to nuclear power would seem like an obvious solution,” said Leslie Dewan, a co-founder and the chief executive of Transatomic Power. “But it’s tricky getting $300 million from investors,” she said. “Maybe we need to build an iPhone app.” Vestaron, a pesticide company started in 2001, has similarly lofty goals in agriculture and food, a specialty basking in newfound attention from Silicon Valley. Vestaron says its spider-venom insecticide controls beetles, caterpillars and other pests without harming other animals. The insecticide, the company says, reduces agriculture’s environmental footprint, makes work safer for agricultural laborers and overcomes the resistance pests have built up to other pesticides over the years. This year, the Environmental Protection Agency approved the active ingredient Vestaron derives from the venom, giving the startup the go-ahead to sell its pesticide commercially to vegetable and greenhouse farmers in 2015. Vestaron, which has a target of $1 million in sales in the first year, will use the latest round of financing to introduce its products to farmers, and eventually to home and garden uses, Sorenson, Vestaron’s chief, said.

ST. LOUIS — Kolten Wong hit a leadoff home run in the bottom of the ninth inning and the resilient Cardinals 5 St. Louis Cardinals beat Giants 4 the San Francisco Giants 5-4 Sunday night, evening the NL Championship Series at one game apiece. The Cardinals won after losing All-Star catcher Yadier Molina to a strained oblique muscle in the sixth. Molina was getting further tests and manager Mike Matheny

said it “didn’t look real good.” “We just knew we had to keep grinding,” Wong said. “When you lose someone like Yadi, it’s definitely tough for us, but we told ourselves we’ve been going through this all year. Grinding up and down, not getting any easy pass, so we’re all so confident.” In a back-and-forth game, St. Louis then got late homers from rookie pinch-hitter Oscar Taveras in the seventh and Matt Adams in the eighth to take a 4-3 lead. It was a rare postseason failure for the reliable San Francisco

bullpen, which allowed a home run in each of the final three innings. “They are the reason we’re in this situation, and you give [the Cardinals] credit,” manager Bruce Bochy said. “They threw out some good at-bats and we made a couple of mistakes and they took advantage of them.” The Giants tied it when pinchrunner Matt Duffy dashed home from second base on a two-out wild pitch in the ninth. San Francisco wound up losing for just the second time in its last

The ’Boys are back

League MVP likely to be out six to eight weeks By Cliff Brunt The Associated Press

OKLAHOMA CITY — Kevin Durant, the NBA’s leading scorer of this decade and the reigning MVP, will likely miss the first six to eight weeks of the season after fracturing a bone in his right foot. The Oklahoma City star forward complained of an ache in his foot after practice Saturday, the team said. Tests showed he has a “Jones fracture,” a broken bone at the base of his small toe. Thunder general manager Sam Presti said Sunday that surgery is likely, and that similar injuries have forced players to miss six to eight weeks. The Thunder open the season Oct. 29 at Portland. A six-week absence could have Durant back for the start of December, with about 65 games remaining. “We’re really fortunate to be catching it when we’re catching it,” Presti said. “Very fortunate that Kevin notified us yesterday, and we’re catching it kind of on the front end, before this became a little bit more of an

Bulldogs take No. 1 in AP poll By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press

Breaking down the ballots for the AP Top 25 and wrapping up college football’s seventh weekend. MIGHTY MISSISSIPPI The Mississippi-mania sweeping college football is more than just a temporary condition. It just keeps getting better for the Magnolia state’s Southeastern Conference teams. Mississippi State, a school with one SEC championship on its résumé, is No. 1 in The Associated Press college football poll. Mississippi, which hasn’t won an SEC title since 1963, is still No. 3, but just a couple of points behind No. 2 Florida State. “I think it’s an affirmation of how good football has been for a long time in Mississippi,” said Rick Cleveland, the executive director of the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame and a longtime newspaper columnist in the state. “Now they’re recognizing the talent and keeping it home.” The Bulldogs and Rebels were even better Saturday than they were last week, when both had breakthrough victories at home.

Murray, Dallas hand Seattle rare home defeat By Tim Booth The Associated Press

SEATTLE n his sixth snap of the game, Tony Romo took a direct blow to his ribs and spent nearly a minute trying to get back to his feet. Seconds later, when Chris Jones’ punt was smothered by Seattle and returned for a touchdown, Romo and the Dallas Cowboys were facing a 10-0 deficit on the defending Super Bowl cham-

pion Seattle Seahawks’ home field. Romo and his teammates rebounded from the terrible start, validating the strong start to the season with a resounding answer. “I think our team now understands that we do a lot of things pretty well and I think we have the ability to kind of impose yourself on other teams,” Romo said. Rallying from the early deficit, the Cowboys relied on running back DeMarco Murray and a defense that confused Russell Wilson in a 30-23 victory Sunday. Murray, who ran for 115 yards, scored on a

15-yard run with 3:16 left to give Dallas the lead and the Cowboys’ defense held twice in the final 3 minutes to cap a miserable day by Seattle’s offense. Rolando McClain intercepted Wilson’s pass with less than a minute remaining to clinch the victory. “Guys aren’t going to back down,” Dallas coach Jason Garrett said. “We have the right kind of guys on this team.” The result wasn’t stunning. It was the way Dallas won. The Cowboys outhit, out-ran and bullied the Seahawks, showing no intimidation toward Seattle’s top defense or the noisy environment created by the 12th Man. “I think that showed the maturity of this team. We expected to win,” Dallas tight end Jason Witten

Manning throws for 3 TDs, Broncos beat Jets By Dennis Waszak Jr. The Associated Press

Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning throws against the New York Jets in the first quarter of Sunday’s game in East Rutherford, N.J. KATHY WILLENS/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Sports editor: James Barron, 986-3045, jbarron@sfnewmexican.com Design and headlines: Eric J. Hedlund, ehedlund@sfnewmexican.com

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Peyton Manning will wait another week to try for another record. Getting the victory was good enough for Denver’s star quarterback. Manning connected with Julius Thomas twice and Demaryius Thomas once, leaving him two shy of Brett Favre’s career mark for passing TDs, and the Broncos held on to beat the New York Jets 31-17 on Sunday. “Any time you win on the road in the NFL,” Manning said, “it’s a good thing.” Manning has 506 career touchdown passes, and could tie or break Favre’s record next Sunday at home against San Francisco. “I don’t know if any of them are big for me, especially in the middle of the season,” Manning said of the importance of the

record. “We’re playing a tough schedule, got the 49ers at home and they’ve been one of the dominant teams of the past couple years. That’s all I am thinking about.” Manning was 22 of 33 for 237 yards — a far cry from last week’s performance against Arizona, when he passed for a career-high 479 yards with four TDs. But he displayed his methodical best at times in his return to MetLife Stadium, where he and the Broncos (4-1) were blown out by the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl last February. “It’s just ridiculous how good he is,” Jets coach Rex Ryan said. This wasn’t nearly the blowout that many expected coming into the day, and the Jets (1-5) had a chance to tie when they

BASEBALL AMERICAN LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES

Royals return home with 2-0 lead By Dave Skretta

TODAY ON TV

The Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Resilience and perseverance are two traits that have come to epitomize the Kansas City Royals, who’ve turned into a playoff force with their run of late-inning wins. They’re two qualities that the Baltimore Orioles had better embrace. After taking the first two games of the AL Championship Series at the bandbox known as Camden Yards, the Royals return to spacious Kauffman Stadium needing two more wins to reach the World Series in their first playoff appearance since winning it all in 1985. Game 3 is Monday night, with two more games on deck in Kansas City — the second only if needed. And make no mistake the Orioles are desperate to play all of them. “You’ve got to win four games,” Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said. “You’ve got to keep from losing three. And that’s obviously oversimplifying it. But you look at teams that compete during the course of the season, they compete on the road, too.” The Orioles were 46-35 on the road this season, a decent mark but by no means the same level of dominance that they exhibited at home. And now their power-hitting lineup has to try to punch balls over the outfield fence at one of the least homerfriendly ballparks in the game, a stadium that lends itself to the Royals’ strong suits: pitching and defense. The Orioles will also have to overcome a daunting bit of history. Since the best-ofseven format was adopted 29 years ago, none of the previous 11 teams that dropped

u 6 p.m. on TBS — Playoffs, American League Championship Series, Game 3, Baltimore at Kansas City

the first two games of a league championship series at home rallied to reach the World Series. “We’re grown men. We’re not little kids who need to sit in a circle and play ‘Duck, Duck, Goose,’ ” Orioles outfielder Adam Jones said, when asked whether there would be any special pep talks before the game. “We’re just going to approach it as we’ve approached every game all season, and do what we do best.” Wei-Yin Chen starts for the Orioles against former Baltimore pitcher Jeremy Guthrie. While the Orioles are trying to buck history, the Royals have been making some. The same club that languished below .500 in late July has seemingly become invincible when the game is on the line. The Royals became the first team in major league history to win four playoff games in extra innings with their 8-6, 10-inning triumph in Game 1 on Friday night, and then added another chapter to their memorable postseason in Game 2 on Saturday. After the Orioles kept rallying to tie the game, Alcides Escobar delivered a goahead double in the ninth inning that propelled Kansas City to a 6-4 victory. “Over the past few years we’ve played a lot of close games,” Royals closer Greg Holland said. “The reason we’re here now is we’ve learned how to win those games. When you learn how to win those games, it kind of builds on itself and you know you can.” The Royals have certainly embraced a

flair for the dramatic. Beginning with their rally from a fourrun deficit in the eighth inning of their wild-card game against Oakland, and right through a pair of extra-inning wins over the Angels in the divisional round, the Royals have thrived when the game is in the balance. It helps that they have one of the best bullpens in baseball. Kelvin Herrera, Wade Davis and Holland have been just as dynamic in the playoffs as they were in the regular season. And considering that neither the Royals nor Orioles have had a starter go deep in a game yet, the play of both bullpens already has proven pivotal. “We just want to get the ball to our bullpen with the lead,” Royals outfielder Jarrod Dyson said. “If we can do that, we know we got it.” Getting the ball to the bullpen will be the job of Guthrie. He’ll be starting Monday night for the first time since Sept. 26, though he’s thrown simulated games and bullpen sessions to keep sharp. “I’ve never had this much time between starts aside from being on the DL,” Guthrie said, “so I don’t view it one way or another. I was able to throw a simulated game, which at least gave me the opportunity to go out there and face hitters. The Orioles will counter with Chen, who pitched well in two games against the Royals earlier this season. “It doesn’t matter to me if we’re ahead or behind,” the left-hander said through interpreter Louis Chao, when asked about the Orioles’ two-game deficit. “For me, my job is to go out and pitch a good game. It doesn’t change whether it’s 0-2 or 2-0. I just want to pitch a good game.”

Wednesday

Cards: Series resumes Tuesday night Continued from Page B-1 14 postseason games. The best-of-seven series resumes Tuesday night with Game 3 in San Francisco with John Lackey going for St. Louis and Tim Hudson starting for the Giants. Wong hit an 0-1 pitch from Sergio Romo for his second big home run this postseason. The rookie’s seventh-inning drive was the decisive blow in Game 3 of the NL Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. St. Louis, last in the NL with 105 home runs during the regu-

lar season, has hit 11 homers in six playoff games — seven in the seventh inning or later. Earlier, Matt Carpenter connected for the fourth time this postseason. Seth Maness retired Pablo Sandoval on a comebacker with the bases loaded to end the top of the ninth, and got the win. Maness came on after closer Trevor Rosenthal couldn’t hold a one-run lead. Rosenthal’s pitch bounced off the glove off backup catcher Tony Cruz and Duffy, running on a full count, never broke stride and slid

home with the tying run. Molina bent over in pain after a swing and didn’t make it out of the batter’s box on a double-play ball in the sixth. Wincing, he gingerly walked off the field. Adams, whose three-run shot off Clayton Kershaw put St. Louis in front for good in their clinching playoff win over Dodgers, homered off Giants reliever Hunter Strickland. Gregor Blanco’s fourth postseason hit in 31 at-bats put the Giants up 3-2 in the seventh, but Taveras re-tied it in the bottom half with a homer off Jean

Machi just inside the right-field foul pole. Carpenter hit a solo home run off Jake Peavy in the third. Randal Grichuk singled with the bases loaded in the fourth to make it 2-0. The Giants came back against Lance Lynn. UP NEXT Giants: Hudson pitched well vs. Washington in Game 2 of the Division Series, allowing a run in 7⅓ innings. Cardinals: Lackey has a win each of the last three postseason series and is the active leader with 111 postseason innings.

Saturday By Andrew Seligman The Associated Press

CHICAGO — Eliud Kipchoge had an ear-to-ear grin while he ran away with the Chicago Marathon. Minutes later, Rita Jeptoo raised her arms and sunk to her knees after she repeated as women’s champion. It was quite a day for the Kenyans. Kipchoge led a 1-2-3 finish for his country at the Chicago Marathon, while Jeptoo again took the prize for the women on Sunday. Kipchoge pulled away over the last two miles for his first major marathon victory, finishing in 2 hours, 4 minutes, 11 seconds. He was followed by Sammy Kitwara in 2:04:28 and Dickson Chumba in 2:04:32. Jeptoo was timed in 2:24:35 in winning her fourth straight major marathon. She also won the Boston Marathon in April and captured the 2013-14 World Marathon Majors points championship. Mare Dibaba of Ethiopia (2:25:37) was second and Florence Kiplagat of Kenya (2:25:57) was third. “Today was a great day for me and my fans,” said Jeptoo, who struggled with the

wind on a day when the temperature was ideal. “I’m happy to be here. … I was having fun.” The winners earned $100,000. Jeptoo received an extra $500,000 for winning the series championship, and Kipchoge picked up a $55,000 time bonus. With a flat course and an ideal forecast, there was plenty of talk before the race about fast times. The skies were clear and the temperature — 46 degrees — was just about right when the race started. But the wind picked up and the men’s and women’s leaders didn’t break away until the latter stages of the races. “It’s the marathon,” executive race director Carey Pinkowski said. “We talked a lot about fast times. … It became tactical racing. The women obviously started watching each other a little bit. The men became much more of a competition and much more gamesmanship. So that was exciting. Toward the end there, Eliud ran a great race and finished really strong. You bring the best athletes together, they complement each other and [you have] great competition.”

The men’s pack stayed together for about 20 miles before Kipchoge, Kitwara and Chumba drew away. Kipchoge and Kitwara were side by side with Chumba right behind after 24 miles. But Kipchoge made it look easy down the stretch. He made a quick burst and was in command as he headed toward the finish at Grant Park, grinning for the final few miles. “To enjoy the streets of Chicago, you need to smile,” he said. “With all these people, you need that big smile.” Kipchoge, a two-time Olympic medalist in the 5,000 meters, was competing in his fourth marathon. He ran his first one in 2013 and is getting used to the longer distance. “To run a good marathon, [you need] good preparation and good planning,” he said. “This is the fourth one. I can say my planning with my coaches is [good]. I now understand. I’m still learning the ropes, but I can say today I am now fully experienced. … I am happy to be one of the winners here.” Jeptoo hasn’t lost a major marathon since she finished second in a sprint to Ethiopia’s Atsede Baysa in the 2012 Chicago Marathon.

He skipped playing for the U.S. national team in this summer’s World Cup so he could get additional rest. He played in two preseason games before complaining of pain. On Media Day, Durant was asked about witnessing Indiana

Pacers forward Paul George’s grotesque broken leg during a USA Basketball scrimmage and offered perspective on injuries. “You could get hurt walking outside,” Durant said. “I know you hear that a lot, but you can get hurt anywhere. Just knowing that keeps you kind of levelheaded, and at peace with what happens on that court. If you worry about it too much, you start to get scared a little bit. So I just try not to worry about it.” The Thunder were forced to play for nearly two months last season without their other All-Star, Russell Westbrook, because of a knee injury, but remained among the West’s best because of Durant.

He averaged 32 points, 7.4 points and 5.5 assists and was an overwhelming winner of MVP honors, ending LeBron James’ bid for a third straight. Durant had a run of 41 consecutive games with at least 25 points, the third-longest streak in NBA history. He has won four of the last five scoring titles, and was at his best during Westbrook’s absence from late December through the All-Star break, averaging 35 points and 6.3 assists as the Thunder went 20-7. For the first time, Durant will have an extended absence. He has never missed more than eight games in a season, and he has missed 16 regular sea-

son games in his seven NBA seasons. Now, it will be up to Westbrook to raise his game while Durant is sidelined, or the Thunder risk falling behind quickly in the powerful West. “You don’t replace Kevin Durant,” Presti said. “It’s not going to be one person, it’s going to be a collective mindset. We know we’re a better basketball team with Kevin Durant on the floor, but we can have some influence over how good we are in the meantime. We’re certainly not going to be looking at the calendar waiting for him to get back. I don’t think he’d want us to do that.” AP basketball writer Brian Mahoney in New York contributed to this report.

U.S. beats China, wins first major women’s volleyball title MILAN — Kimberly Hill led the United States to its first major women’s volleyball title, scoring 20 points in a 3-1 victory over China on Sunday in the world championships. Hill had the final kill, and captain Christa Dietzen added 15 points in the Americans’ 27-25, 25-20, 16-25, 26-24 victory before 12,600 fans at the Mediolanum Forum. “We came here to make history and we made it,” said U.S. coach Karch Kiraly, a three-time Olympic champion. “It was a tough battle, but we made it.” The U.S. women had never won the world championships, World Cup or Olympics. “It’s the first time for the USA and we made it,” Dietzen said. “We represented present and future volleyball programs, but most importantly we did it together.” The Americans finished second in 1967 and 2002. In Saturday’s semifinals, the U.S. stunned top-ranked Olympic champion Brazil 3-0. Brazil beat Italy 25-15, 25-13, 22-25, 22-25, 15-7 in the bronzemedal match. The Associated Press

49ers defense presents challenge for Davis By R.B. Fallstrom The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS — Austin Davis has made the most of his improbable shot with the St. Louis Rams, passing for 300 yards each of the last two games. The degree of difficulty is about to go up. Way up. The San Francisco 49ers enter Monday night’s game with the NFL’s No. 2 defense, making the going very tough even without key players from last season. Patrick Willis leads the way for San Francisco (3-2) which has stepped up its play lately. Last week, they did enough to compensate for a sputtering offense that leaned on five field goals and converted on a fake punt deep in their territory in a 22-17 victory over the Chiefs. Alex Smith found the going tough especially in the second half and Jamal Charles was held to 80 yards rushing. “Patrick Willis, let’s start there,” coach Jim Harbaugh said. “He is the kingpin in the middle.” Harbaugh said tackle Justin Smith and linebacker Ahmad Brooks have also stepped up their play, plus nose tackle Ian Williams has been a find. Linebacker NaVorro Bowman has resumed running and getting closer to returning. Davis passed for 375 yards and two touchdowns last week at Philadelphia, nearly bringing the Rams back from a 27-point deficit in a 34-28 loss. The previous game, he passed for 325 yards although he was intercepted twice. Several players have proven reliable targets, including wide receivers Brian Quick, Kenny Britt and Austin Pettis and tight ends Jared Cook and Lance Kendricks. The 49ers took advantage of the extra day of preparation to learn more about a player who was fourth on the depth chart during the preseason before the job dropped into his hands due to injuries to Sam Bradford and Shaun Hill. Coach Jeff Fisher reversed field after the Rams’ bye and said Davis was his quarterback for the rest of the year, after repeatedly saying Hill was that guy when he returned from a quadriceps injury. Davis was a volunteer high school coach this time last year, getting resigned by the Rams after Bradford’s first season-ending knee injury. So it’s still a nice rags-to-riches tale, but with a body of work to analyze. “We’ve really we’ve got as much tape on him as we would have if the other guy had still been the quarterback,” defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said. “So, it’s really not a whole lot different than any other week.” The Rams (1-3) are a lot more concerned about solving the 49ers’ defense than Davis performing on national TV. “It’s just the next challenge, the next chapter,” offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer said. “It’s just obviously a very good defense. “Again, he doesn’t have to do it by himself, we have to do it as a team.” The game plan won’t change much, if at all, to account for San Francisco’s strengths. Running back Zac Stacy is probable coming off a calf injury that sidelined him last week and Benny Cunningham also been effective.

Eagles obliterate Giants By Rob Maaddi The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — The offense clicked, the defense dominated and the Philadelphia Eagles got their first shutout in Eagles 27 18 years. Nick Foles Giants 0 threw two touchdown passes and LeSean McCoy had a season-high 149 yards rushing to help the Eagles beat the New York Giants 27-0 on Sunday night. A rough night for the Giants (3-3) became worse when wide receiver Victor Cruz tore the patellar tendon his right knee while leaping for a pass on fourth down from the Eagles 3 in the third quarter. Cruz, a 2012 Pro Bowl pick, was crying and holding his hands to his face as he was carted off the field with an injury that’s expected to end his season. Wearing all-black uniforms for the first time in franchise history, the Eagles (5-1) stayed tied with Dallas (5-1) for the lead in the NFC East. They hadn’t shut out an opponent since a 24-0 win over the Giants on Dec. 1, 1996, at old Veterans Stadium. Foles had 248 yards passing, Darren Sproles ran for a score and the offense had a rare strong start. The defense harassed and pressured Eli Manning often, sacking him six times and preventing New York’s upstart offense from getting on track. The Giants had won three in a row, scoring more than 30 points in each victory. Manning was sacked only seven times in the first five games before Connor Barwin (three), Vinny Curry (two) and Trent Cole (one) took him down. Brandon Graham and Brandon Bair sacked Ryan Nassib to make it eight for the defense. The Eagles entered with 11 offensive touchdowns and seven from their defense and special teams. But Foles and Co. didn’t need much help in this one. Foles tossed a 15-yard scoring

pass to Zach Ertz for Philadelphia’s first offensive TD in the first quarter this season. Ertz made a diving catch, dragging his feet to stay in bounds. Foles hit a wide-open James Casey for a 26-yard TD pass to make it 17-0 in the second quarter. Casey had only one catch this season and hadn’t scored a TD since 2012 with the Texans, but the Giants bit on a play-action fake and left the third-string tight end open running down the middle. Sproles had a 15-yard TD run to put the Eagles ahead 27-0. He left the game with a left knee injury and didn’t return. Foles’ pass was intercepted by Antrel Rolle inside the red zone on a poor pass off his back foot late in the second quarter. He threw another pick to Zack Bowman in the third quarter, but the Giants’ ensuing drive ended with the incomplete pass on which Cruz

was injured. McCoy had more yards rushing in the first quarter than he had in full games against Washington and San Francisco. McCoy, an All-Pro last year, had struggled this season, averaging 2.9 yards per carry. But he has more career yards rushing against the Giants than any NFL team. The Giants were without Rashad Jennings, who entered the week as the NFL’s fifth-leading rusher. Rookie Andre Williams started for Jennings, out with a sprained left knee. Eagles linebacker Mychal Kendricks missed his fourth straight game because of a calf injury. But linebacker DeMeco Ryans played despite being limited in practices by a groin injury. Cody Parkey kicked field goals of 31 and 45 yards. The rookie is 12 of 13 with a pair of 51-yarders this season.

said. “We knew this was going to be a challenge and we stayed the course.” It looked very familiar to the way Seattle won last year on its way to the title. And now the Cowboys are 5-1 for the first time since 2007. “They played really well and they did a lot of cool stuff for their football team in all phases, and we were not right, really, in any phase of our game today,” Seattle coach Pete Carroll said. Around every corner of the Dallas locker room compliments and accolades were being tossed about. Dallas owner Jerry Jones held court for nearly 45 minutes. “This win is a coaching win. It’s a Jason Garrett win,” Jones said. “This called on everything you could ever ask a coach to come together with a team. He answered the bell today.” Murray joined Jim Brown (1958) as the only running backs in NFL history to start a season with six straight 100-yard rushing games. And Murray did it against the league’s best run defense, which had not allowed a running back more than 38 yards in a game this season. Dallas’ improved offensive line opened enough space for Murray to run and for the most part kept Romo protected. Romo was sacked only once, and bounced up off the turf from that first hard hit he took from Bobby Wagner on the Cowboys’ first drive. And when Romo got pressured on Dallas’ winning drive, Terrance Williams made a stunning toe-dragging catch along the sideline for 23 yards to convert a third-and-20. Romo moved away from pressure by Bruce Irvin and found Williams along the sideline in front of the Dallas bench. “If he throws it up, I’m trying to gain his trust, so I’m going to catch it regardless,” Williams said.

Brady leads Patriots to win over newly bought Bills The Associated Press

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Tom Brady threw four touchdown passes and had his 60th 300-yard game to lead New EngPatriots 37 land past Buffalo. Brandon LaFell Bills 22 had two touchdown catches, including a 56-yarder, and the Patriots forced three turnovers that resulted in 13 points in the second quarter. Brady finished 27 of 37 for 361 yards to spoil the Bills’ first game under new owners Terry and Kim Pegula. Brady is 23-2 against AFC East rival Buffalo with the Patriots (4-2). Kyle Orton went 24 of 38 for 299 yards with two touchdowns, an interception and a lost fumble in his second start for Buffalo (3-3) since replacing EJ Manuel. PACKERS 27, DOLPHINS 24 In Miami Gardens, Fla., Aaron Rodgers threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Andrew Quarless with 3 seconds left to lift Green Bay past Miami. Green Bay twice gave up leads and trailed 24-17 before Rodgers directed a 68-yard drive for a field goal with 4:09 to go. The Packers (4-2) quickly forced a punt to start at their 40 with 2:04 left, and Rodgers hit Jordy Nelson on fourth-and-10 for 18 yards to keep the winning drive alive. Rodgers finished with three touchdown passes and 264 yards while committing no turnovers. The Packers earned their third consecutive victory and won in Miami for only the second time ever. The Dolphins (2-3) lost despite the return of six starters who had missed playing time. CARDINALS 30, REDSKINS 20 In Glendale, Ariz., Carson Palmer returned from a five-week absence to throw two touchdown passes, and

Arizona beat Washington to take the sole NFC West lead. Larry Fitzgerald caught six passes for a season-high 98 yards and his first touchdown of the season to help the Cardinals (4-1) bounce back from a 41-20 drubbing at Denver. Kirk Cousins was 24 for 38 for 354 yards, including a 64-yard touchdown pass to DeSean Jackson for the Redskins (1-5), but threw three fourthquarter interceptions. Washington has lost four straight and 13 of 14. Palmer had not played since damaging a nerve in his throwing shoulder in the season-opening win over San Diego and was not announced as the starter until just before kickoff. Palmer completed 28 of 44 for 250 yards with no interceptions. The Cardinals have not thrown an interception this season. CHARGERS 31, RAIDERS 28 In Oakland, Calif., Branden Oliver scored on a 1-yard run with 1:56 to play and San Diego spoiled interim coach Tony Sparano’s Oakland debut. Philip Rivers threw three touchdown passes and engineered the winning drive to give San Diego (5-1) its fifth straight win and send Oakland (0-5) to its 11th straight loss. Rookie Derek Carr threw four touchdown passes for the Raiders and gave them a 28-21 lead on a 6-yard throw to Andre Holmes with 10:01 to play. But Rivers answered with a pair of scoring drives, and Carr’s pass was intercepted by rookie Jason Verrett with 1:13 to play. PANTHERS 37, BENGALS 37 (TIE) In Cincinnati, the Bengals’ Mike Nugent missed a 36-yard field goal attempt on the final play of overtime, and Cincinnati and Carolina played to the NFL’s first tie this season. Nothing new about the Bengals tying at home. They finished 13-13 with Philadelphia in their last overtime game at Paul Brown Stadium in 2008. Nugent made a 42-yard field goal

that put Cincinnati (3-1-1) up after the opening drive of overtime. Carolina (3-2-1) tied it on Graham Gano’s 36-yarder with 2:19 left. Andy Dalton was nearly perfect in overtime, going 8 for 9 for 87 yards with one throwaway. He led the Bengals into range to win it, but Nugent sliced the kick wide right. TITANS 16, JAGUARS 14 In Nashville, Tenn., Sammie Hill blocked a field goal attempt in the final seconds, and Tennessee held off winless Jacksonville to snap a fourgame losing streak. Jackie Battle ran for a touchdown, and Ryan Succop kicked three field goals to help the Titans (2-4) bounce back after blowing the biggest lead ever by a home team in the regular season in a loss to Cleveland. Jurrell Casey had two of Tennessee’s six sacks. The Titans forced two turnovers as they won their first game at home this season — only their second here in nine games. BROWNS 31, STEELERS 10 In Cleveland, Brian Hoyer passed for 217 yards and pulled off a rarity for a Cleveland quarterback, leading the Browns to rout over Ben Roethlisberger and rival Pittsburgh. Hoyer threw a 51-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Cameron and improved to 6-2 as Cleveland’s starter as the surprising Browns (3-2) beat the Steelers for the third time in 23 games. Cleveland hadn’t beaten Pittsburgh so badly since a 51-0 victory in 1989. Ben Tate had two rushing TDs and rookie Isaiah Crowell added another one as the Browns opened a 21-3 lead in the first half and rolled to the easy win a week after staging the largest comeback in NFL history by a road team against Tennessee. BEARS 27, FALCONS 13 In Atlanta, Jay Cutler threw for 381 yards and a touchdown, Matt Forte ran for a couple of second-

half scores, and Chicago picked up another road victory by beating Atlanta. Chicago (3-3) has won three of four away from Soldier Field this season, though there were so many Bears fans at the Georgia Dome that it seemed almost like a neutral site. After the Falcons (2-4) rallied from a 13-3 halftime deficit to tie it late in the third quarter, the Bears bounced back to hand Atlanta its third straight loss. Cutler unleashed a towering pass to Alshon Jeffery that went for 74 yards. On the next play, Forte scored on a 6-yard run. LIONS 17, VIKINGS 3 In Minneapolis, Tahir Whitehead intercepted two of Teddy Bridgewater’s passes, and Joique Bell put the game away with a fourth-quarter touchdown run in Detroit’s victory over Minnesota. With Calvin Johnson and Reggie Bush missing, the Lions played a low-risk game. But their defense made another case for top billing in the league. Ziggy Ansah had 2½ of Detroit’s eight sacks, Bridgewater threw three interceptions in his second career start for the Vikings (2-4). The biggest problem for Detroit (4-2) was two more missed field goal attempts, through Matt Prater did make one from 52 yards in his Lions debut. Detroit won at Minnesota for only the second time in its last 17 trips. RAVENS 48, BUCCANEERS 17 In Tampa, Fla., Joe Flacco threw for 306 yards and five touchdowns to help Baltimore beat Tampa Bay. Baltimore (4-2) scored on six straight possessions to begin the game, with Flacco throwing touchdown passes on the first five. Torrey Smith caught the first two, and Kamar Aiken, Michael Campanaro and Steve Smith had the others as the Ravens rebounded from a road loss to Indianapolis.

Broncos: Julius Thomas’ 9 TD catches most by TE in 1st 5 games Continued from Page B-1 got the ball deep in their own territory with less than a minute left. But after a sack put the ball at the 1, Geno Smith was intercepted by Aqib Talib, who returned it 22 yards for a sealing touchdown that sent New York to its fifth straight loss. “The game plan was great,” Smith said. “We should’ve done a better job.” The struggling Smith, looking to keep his starting job, was 23 of 43 for 190 yards and touchdown passes to Jace Amaro and Eric Decker, with the one interception. “Obviously, I’m frustrated,” Smith

said. “Five losses in a row, obviously has everyone frustrated, but I’m optimistic.” Decker’s 2-yard touchdown catch, his first against his former team, cut the Jets’ deficit to seven at 24-17 with 7:56 left. Decker finished with six receptions for 54 yards, while Amaro had 10 catches for 68 yards for the Jets, who play at New England on Thursday night. “It was just a football game out there,” Decker said. “There were a lot of close friends out there, but it’s part of the business when you go to a new team.”

Demaryius Thomas finished with 10 catches for 124 yards for Denver, and Ronnie Hillman ran for 100 yards on 24 carries in his first NFL start for the injured Montee Ball. “If Ronnie wants to run for four touchdowns next week,” Manning said, “I’m all in favor of that.” The Broncos got going quickly, with Manning connecting with Demaryius Thomas for 54 yards on Denver’s first play from scrimmage. The Jets’ defense then held the Broncos to a 37-yard field goal by Brandon McManus. Dee Milliner, New York’s top cornerback, injured his right Achilles ten-

don during the field goal and sat out the rest of the game. He was seen with crutches by his side as he was carted from the locker room to the stadium parking lot. Manning scrambled away from pressure and hit Demaryius Thomas for a 1-yard touchdown to give the Broncos a 10-7 lead late in the second quarter. The Broncos went 80 yards on nine plays on their next possession, capped by Manning’s perfectly placed 22-yard throw to Julius Thomas that made it 17-7 with 27 seconds left. Julius Thomas screamed “It’s so easy!” after he caught

his second TD pass from Manning midway through the third quarter. His nine touchdown catches are the most by a tight end in NFL history through his team’s first five games. “I like to have fun out there,” Thomas said. “I was just really excited.” Amaro’s first NFL touchdown, a 2-yarder, gave the Jets a 7-3 lead — their first in any game since Week 2 at Green Bay — with 4:16 left in the opening quarter. Walter Powell muffed a punt, recovered by Denver’s Steven Johnson, and it changed momentum in the second quarter.

Poll: Seminoles held top spot for 10 straight polls Continued from Page B-1 Mississippi State and Heisman Trophy contender Dak Prescott routed Auburn 38-23 in Starkville. Ole Miss and its nasty defense, led by tackle Robert Nkemdiche, dominated Texas A&M 35-21 in College Station, Texas. If you’re wondering, and you probably should be, the Rebels and Bulldogs play Nov. 29 in Oxford, the Saturday after Thanksgiving in what could be an Egg Bowl extravaganza. The Iron Bowl on the same day could end up being just an undercard, the way LSU-Florida and Alabama-Arkansas were Saturday. “It’s surreal,” said Cleveland, a Mississippi native. For the both the Rebels and Bulldogs, it’s been a startling rise after recent struggles. In the rugged SEC

West, where Alabama (three national titles), LSU (two) and Auburn (one) have been the powers during the BCS era, the Mississippi schools have usually been relegated to the second division. In Starkville, coach Dan Mullen took over in 2009 and has steadily turned around a program that was flailing. Mullen, the former Florida offensive coordinator under Urban Meyer, is 42-28 at Mississippi State. The Bulldogs were 23-48 in the six seasons before Mullen arrived. Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze was hired after the Rebels went 2-10 in 2011. They won seven games his first season and eight last year. He landed one of the best recruiting classes in the country between his first and second seasons. Now the Rebels have their best ranking in the AP poll since 1964.

So where do the Rebels and Bulldogs go from here? The Bulldogs could be in for a pretty good run at No. 1. They’re heading into an off week before a stretch of schedule that looks accommodating (at Kentucky, Arkansas, Tennessee-Martin) before a trip to Alabama on Nov. 15. The Rebels come home for Tennessee on Saturday before going to LSU and hosting No. 6 Auburn. GOING DOWN Florida State had held No. 1 for 10 straight AP polls, dating to last season. The Seminoles have shown some vulnerability this season, had some close calls and rarely have looked like the dominant team that went unbeaten on the way to a national championship last year. They just keep winning.

The ’Noles step back into the spotlight this week — for a couple of reasons. The game of the week will be played in Tallahassee, Fla., on Saturday night when No. 5 Notre Dame visits Florida State, a matchup with playoff implications reminiscent for the classic 1993 game between the Irish and Seminoles. The Fighting Irish are the only ranked team left on Florida State’s schedule. It could even be a chance for the Seminoles to take back the No. 1 ranking. Then there’s the drama off the field. Florida State is preparing to hold a student conduct hearing involving Heisman Trophy winner Jameis Winston, who was accused by a female student of rape after a December 2012 encounter. Florida prosecutors declined to charge Winston after an investigation during last season. Flor-

ida State has been conducting its own investigation to be in compliance for federal Title IX requirements. No date has been set for a hearing and Florida State has given no indication that Winston’s status will change in the meantime. MOVING OUT A second straight home loss has dropped UCLA out of the Top 25. The Bruins were thumped at home by Oregon, 42-30 on Saturday, and are in danger of becoming one of the most disappointing teams in the country. Coach Jim Mora’s team was the Pac12 South favorite coming into this season and ranked No. 7 nationally. The Bruins haven’t been able to protect talented quarterback Brett Hundley or stop opponents. Mora and defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich get into it on the sideline while the Ducks were taking apart the Bruins. UCLA has some standout talent and highly recruited players on its defense, including linebackers Eric Kendricks and Myles Jack.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Man sends texts to son’s girlfriend Dear Annie: Two months ago, I discovered that my husband had been texting and calling my oldest son’s girlfriend. My son told me about it after his girlfriend asked him, “What’s wrong with your father?” She said it began last June, but claimed it was only one phone call and a few texts. It made me feel ugly and unwanted. I suspect she is leaving out the extent of her involvement in encouraging him. This has crushed what was left of my feelings for him. He already had committed “financial infidelity” to the point where I was paying most of the bills with my small disability income. He always had some excuse for not providing any money to the household. I even had to apply for provisions from the local food pantry. When this indiscretion happened, I finally had enough, and we are now separated. The problem is, it is very awkward for me to interact with my son’s girlfriend. Am I jumping the gun on getting a divorce? What should I do? — Crushed in Green Bay Dear Crushed: Please stop blaming your son’s girlfriend for your husband’s inappropriate behavior. She probably had no idea how to react to his texts and calls without causing a family problem. You need to forgive her for attracting your husband. Then decide whether you are better off with or without him. If you cannot do this on your own, get some counseling. Dear Annie: Your suggestion that hosts ask whether guests have food requirements blew my mind. We recently had an informal buffet party for 14. We had many different appetizers, some main dishes and multiple desserts. At that party, we had a guest who chooses not to eat beef, one who cannot eat anything containing seeds or nuts, one whose diet is restricted because he is on heart medication, another who has to restrict sugar intake and probably several who want to restrict salt intake. No one starved to death. They only needed to avoid what they could not eat without making a fuss. Our group members always

contribute something to the menu, so when the vegetarian asks what she can bring, I suggest she bring a vegetarian dish. If a guest has dietary problems, it would seem that the guest should explain that enough in advance to give the hostess a chance to decide what to do about it, but then the guest should offer to contribute something that he or she can eat. Individual “orders” need to be reserved for restaurants. — Concerned Hostess Dear Concerned: We are not talking about guests’ preferences, particularly when there is enough variety for them to find something to eat. You are right that they will be just fine. And offering to bring a dish to a buffet is often welcome. We are talking about requirements, particularly allergies that can be life threatening. For example, avoiding a dish with nuts may not be enough. Chopped nuts can leave residue that can be inhaled or contaminate other foods, causing anaphylaxis and a trip to the emergency room. Hosts need to know these things. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Disgusted,” whose friends blow their noses at the dinner table. My male friend and I went out for lunch one day, and he blew his nose repeatedly at the table. I decided that if he could be obnoxious, I would take out my dental bridge and drop it in my glass of water. It gets food in it and is uncomfortable. I put a napkin around the glass and didn’t think it was that noticeable, but he commented how rude it was. I then said, “If you stop blowing your nose at the table, I will stop dropping my bridge in the water glass.” It has worked out well. — London Bridges Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
