communities they protect. But an analysis by The Associated Press found that the racial gap between black police officers and the communities where they work has narrowed over the last generation, particularly in departments that once were the least diverse. A much larger disparity,

however, is now seen in the low number of Hispanic officers in police departments. In Waco, Texas, for example, the community is more than 30 percent Hispanic, but the police department of 231 fulltime sworn officers has only 27 Hispanics. Across the United States, there are police departments

Critics rushing to judge Rodella I

Group seeks less opaque government, elections Common Cause issues new call for improved transparency, financing By Steve Terrell The New Mexican

t’s hard to be unfair to Sheriff Tommy Rodella of Rio Arriba County, but his critics are pulling it off. They say Rodella should resign from office because the federal government has charged him with violating the civil rights of a motorist by pistolwhipping him, then lying about Milan what hapSimonich pened in the Ringside Seat arrest report. Rodella says the charges are false and he will be exonerated in a trial. Rodella, 52, has a long and ugly record in public life. When he was a state police officer, his own department said he fixed traffic tickets. Later, the state Supreme Court removed him as a magistrate judge for misconduct and barred him from ever again seeking a judicial office. Now, as a lame-duck sheriff with less than four months left in his term, he faces federal criminal charges for his alleged attack on the motorist in a case of road rage. Few see any reason to stand up for Rodella. But all of us should stand up for due process and fundamental fair-

Annual Historical/Hysterical Parade entertains with variety of entries By Robert Nott The New Mexican

P

irates, a headless crocodile, an Elvis impersonator and two Zozobras descended upon the downtown area as the annual Desfile de la Gente — commonly known as the Historical/Hysterical Parade — took place Sunday afternoon. More than 120 floats and vehicles took part in the procession, which ran 90 minutes and attracted crowds standing two- and three-deep along some parts of the route. Waiting on the curb on Palace Avenue just off the Plaza, an excited 7-year-old Kristin Edwards said this was her first parade, and she expected to see “tricks.” Across the street,

6-year-old Bella Griego said she likes the parade because “there’s gymnastic people.” That there was, as cheerleaders and gymnasts from the two big public high schools and other educational facilities performed baton tossing, volleyball maneuvers and other athletic antics. School floats and marching bands made up much of the procession and were a hit with onlookers. Being that it is an election year, there were plenty of politicians in the parade, most of whom rode in snappylooking vehicles flanked by walking supporters distributing candy. Actually, nearly everyone in the parade gave out candy to happy kids holding out bags, buckets and baskets as if it were Halloween. New Mexico Attorney General and

gubernatorial candidate Gary King, a Democrat challenging Republican Gov. Susana Martinez, played a Dixieland jazz number on a clarinet as he walked the length of the parade. On Alameda Street, King was met with an almost equal mix of cheers and boos. “All right, King, go get her!” one man yelled. Almost immediately afterward, another man shouted, “We’ve got Susana! Get out of here!” While a cynic could despair at the number of businesses showcasing their services with less-than-colorful floats, the crowd certainly didn’t mind when Coca-Cola Bottling Company of Santa Fe employees handed out free cans of cold soda along the route. The parade was created decades

A group that long has advocated reforming campaign finance laws and strengthening laws related to government ethics is launching a $200,000 advertising campaign in the state to draw attention to the issue of money in politics. Common Cause New Mexico is calling on voters to sign what they’re calling the “New Mexico Pledge.” It states: “I pledge my support for solutions that address the harmful impact of money in politics, increase transparency in our government and help get our state focused on big issues that impact us all.” “The modern campaign system is broken and prevents elected officials from solving big problems,” said Viki Harrison, executive director of the state’s Common Cause chapter, in a news release. “While the vast majority of elected officials in New Mexico are hard working and ethical people who want the best for our state, candidates must raise an egregious amount of money to run for office. What’s worse, outside groups with sometimes little interest in the good of our state spend millions of completely undisclosed money to try to influence our votes. This makes candidates dependent on big funders and makes it difficult for New Mexicans to have their voices heard.” Among the specific “solutions” Common Cause is calling for: u Improving disclosure in elections, including a clear definition of coordination between campaigns and

Monkey study: Ebola vaccine works, but it needs booster Protection from virus wanes after a few months without second dose By Lauran Neergaard The Associated Press

WASHINGTON ew monkey studies show that one shot of an experimental Ebola vaccine can trigger fast protection, but the effect waned unless the animals got a booster shot made a different way. Some healthy people are rolling up their sleeves at the National Institutes of Health for the first human safety study of this vaccine in hopes it eventually might be used in the current Ebola outbreak in West Africa. The NIH on Sunday published some of the key animal research behind those injections. One reason the vaccine was deemed promising was that a single dose protected all four vaccinated monkeys when they were exposed to high levels of Ebola virus just five weeks later, researchers reported in the journal Nature Medicine. Is five weeks fast enough? That’s in line with other vaccines routinely used today, and fortunately it didn’t take multiple doses to trigger that much protection, said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of NIH’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, whose employees led the work. The bigger challenge is that the protection wanes over time. Researchers exposed monkeys to Ebola 10 months after vaccination, and this time only half were protected. Partial protection is better than none, Fauci said. But the goal is long-lasting protection, so it was time to try booster shots. The vaccine is made with a chimpanzee cold virus, used as a delivery system for pieces of an Ebola gene. The researchers tried simply giving another dose as a booster two months later. That didn’t work well enough. So they tried a different approach called “primeboost.” The first dose, to prime the immune system, was that original chimp virus-based Ebola vaccine. But for the booster two months later, they made vaccine a different way. They encased the same Ebola gene pieces inside a poxvirus that’s used to make a vaccine against smallpox. (Neither vaccine type can cause Ebola.) This time, all four monkeys still were protected 10 months after the initial shot. With the Ebola crisis rapidly worsening, the World Health Organization said Friday that it would try to speed the use of certain experimental products, including two vaccine candidates. The WHO said that in November, it expects early results from first-stage studies to see if the vaccine appears safe and triggers an immune reaction in people. That would help determine whether to test the shots’ effectiveness in health care workers in West Africa. Small animal and human safety studies cannot guarantee that experimental vaccines really work in an outbreak, Fauci said. That’s why he emphasizes public health measures such as isolating the sick, quarantine and, especially for health workers, using personal protection equipment. “Make sure people do what works,” he said. The booster-shot findings illustrate an added complexity to speeding an experimental vaccine into the field. The initial first phase study results would shed light only on that “priming” vaccine made from the chimp cold virus, Fauci said. The poxvirus booster step would be tested later only if scientists decided the initial vaccine was promising enough. Still, manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline has said it plans to begin manufacturing up to 10,000 doses of the initial NIH-developed vaccine. Canadian researchers created a similar Ebola vaccine that works in monkeys. Manufacturer NewLink Genetics of Ames, Iowa, said first-stage safety testing in healthy volunteers is set to begin in a few weeks.

FLOODING IN THE HIMALAYAN REGION Kashmiri men use a makeshift raft Sunday to evacuate an elderly man and his granddaughter from a flooded neighborhood in Srinagar, India. Fast-moving floodwaters submerged large parts of the main city in Indian-controlled Kashmir after five days of pounding rain. The flooding, the worst in 50 years, has killed at least 120 people across the Himalayan region. Landslides and flash floods triggered by heavy monsoon rains have killed nearly 300 people in large swaths of northern India and Pakistan. In neighboring Pakistan, more than 160 people have died and thousands of homes have collapsed, with an official saying the situation was becoming a ‘national emergency.’ DAR YASIN/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Chicago rejected bans in Wisconsin and Indiana. Same-sex marriage opponents, however, scored a legal victory last week when a federal judge in Louisiana upheld that state’s ban.

Damaging storm Norbert weakens off Mexico coast Shells hit Mogadishu after militant’s death LOS CABOS, Mexico — Hurricane Norbert slumped to tropical storm force off of Mexico’s Baja California peninsula on Sunday after pounding fishing villages and damaging more than 1,000 homes while kicking up dangerous surf farther north along the California coast. Norbert peaked as a Category 3 hurricane early Saturday with sustained winds of 120 mph, but by Sunday night it was a rapidly weakening tropical storm with winds of 45 mph. The U.S. National Hurricane Center said the storm was likely to fade as it bends toward the coast of the peninsula by midweek, bringing more heavy rains to the Baja desert and to the U.S. Southwest.

Appeals court to review gay marriage bans SAN FRANCISCO — The federal appeals court in San Francisco has already issued two significant gay rights rulings: In 2012, it struck down California’s same-sex wedding ban and this year it extended protections against discrimination to gay and lesbians. Now, three judges on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals — all appointed by Democrats and two of whom joined in the civil rights ruling this year — are set to hear arguments Monday on gay marriage bans in Idaho, Nevada and Hawaii. The hearings come as gay marriage supporters have piled up legal victories in federal courts across the country this year, nullifying bans in more than a dozen states. On Thursday, the federal appeals court in

MOGADISHU, Somalia — A Somali police officer says mortar shells have struck a Mogadishu neighborhood a day after the al-Qaida-linked militants named a new leader and vowed to avenge the death of the previous leader killed by a U.S. airstrike. Mohamed Abdi said Sunday the shells landed in residential areas in Hamarjajab neighborhood, wounding five residents. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack. But al-Shabab militants, while naming Ahmad Umar, also known as Abu Ubaidah, as their new leader, vowed to avenge the killing of their previous spiritual leader, Ahmed Abdi Godane, killed in a U.S. airstrike on Monday. Somalia’s government said Friday night that it has credible intelligence al-Shabab is planning attacks in retaliation for Godane’s death.

Islamic extremists grab towns in Nigeria YOLA, Nigeria — Nigeria’s Islamic extremist group, Boko Haram, has seized more towns along Nigeria’s northeastern border with Cameroon and is adopting a strategy of encouraging civilians to stay, witnesses said Sunday, as the militants pursue their new aim to carve out an “Islamic caliphate” under their black and white flag. Nigerian army soldiers fled when hundreds of insurgents in stolen military armored personnel carriers, trucks and motorcycles attacked Michika on Sunday, said Marry Dauda, a fleeing resident. On Saturday, the insurgents took Gulak,

RAMALLAH, West Bank — The new Palestinian unity government faced a new crisis on Sunday after President Mahmoud Abbas threatened to dissolve his alliance with Hamas if the Islamic militant group does not give up power in the Gaza Strip. The dispute erupted just over two weeks after Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza ended in a cease-fire. Abbas is looking to regain a foothold in Gaza, which suffered heavy losses during the fighting, and expects to play a leading role in internationally backed reconstruction efforts. His comments, which also included harsh criticism of Hamas’ conduct in the war, appeared to be part of a brewing power struggle over who will control post-war Gaza. Hamas has controlled Gaza since overrunning Abbas’ forces in 2007. Facing international isolation and a deep financial crisis, the Islamic militant group agreed to the formation of a new unity government with Abbas’ Fatah movement in June, in which it would restore governing power to Abbas in the territory. But it has yet to yield power — even after the devastating war against Israel, which killed more than 2,100 Palestinians and caused billions of dollars of damage. “We will not accept having a partnership if their status in Gaza remains this way,” Abbas said late Saturday in Cairo in comments carried by Egypt’s state news agency MENA.

Arab League chief: Confront Shelling claims lives in Ukraine Attacks violate Islamic State extremists cease-fire deal Obama to outline plan this week By Sarah El Deeb and Sameer N. Yacoub The Associated Press

CAIRO — The head of the Arab League urged its members Sunday to confront Islamic State extremists “militarily and politically,” issuing an apparent call to arms as President Barack Obama prepares to go to lawmakers and the American public with his own plan to stop the militants. Backing from the 22-country Arab League could provide crucial support across the Middle East for Obama’s effort to assemble an international coalition against the Islamic State, the marauding group that has conquered a swath of Iraq and Syria and committed beheadings and mass killings to sow terror. Already, NATO forces have agreed to take on the extremists. Arab League chief Nabil Elaraby said that what is needed from Arab countries is a “clear and firm decision for a comprehensive confrontation” with “cancerous and terrorist” groups. The Arab League includes Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Lebanon, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Obama will meet with congressional leaders on Tuesday and then outline his plan to the war-weary American public Wednesday, the eve of the 13th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks. “I just want the American people to understand the nature of the threat and how we’re going to deal with it and to have confidence that we’ll be able to deal with it,” Obama said in an interview broadcast Sunday. In new airstrikes Sunday, the U.S. targeted Islamic State fighters in Iraq’s long-contested Anbar province for the first time, launching attacks with bomber and fighter aircraft. The American military said the airstrikes destroyed, among

other things, an Islamic Group command post and several vehicles, two of which were carrying anti-aircraft artillery. It wasn’t immediately clear what steps the Arab League would take in supporting the West’s campaign against the Islamic State. And reaching a consensus on how to move could be complicated by Arab world rivalries and member countries’ different spheres of influence. An Arab diplomat speaking to Egypt’s official MENA news agency said a resolution backing cooperation with the U.S. would go before members Sunday. He did not elaborate. But a draft resolution obtained by The Associated Press offered only routine condemnation of terrorist groups operating in the region. It also called on member states to improve informationsharing and legal expertise in combating terrorism, and to prevent the paying of ransom to militants. Elaraby himself noted that the Arab League’s member states have failed to help each other in the past when facing local armed groups, often because of disagreements and fear of being accused of meddling in one another’s affairs. He called the Islamic State a threat to the existence of Iraq and its neighbors. It is “one of the examples of the challenges that are violently shaking the Arab world, and one the Arab

League, regrettably, has not been able to confront,” he said. A decades-old joint Arab defense agreement states that member countries can act alone or collectively to ward off attack and restore peace by all means, including force. Elaraby, a longtime Egyptian diplomat, said an agreement to activate that clause in the 1950 agreement is needed. Before the Arab League meeting, Elaraby spoke by telephone to U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry to discuss the Islamic State insurgents. A senior State Department official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the person was not authorized to publicly discuss the private diplomatic conversation, said Kerry updated Elaraby on efforts to combat the insurgents. “They discussed the need for the Arab League and its members to take a strong position in the coalition that is developing … and the importance of decisive action” to stop the flow of foreign fighters, disrupt the Islamic State’s financing and combat incitement, the official said. Kerry said the military aspect is only one part of the effort, and more comprehensive coordination with Arab countries — combining law enforcement, intelligence, economic and diplomatic tools — is required, the official said.

We wanted to get the stroller, some warm clothes for the child,” she said, quietly sobbing on a bench across the road from her burning home. “There was no way to get into the house.” The 12-point cease-fire agreement, published Sunday by international monitors, calls for the withdrawal of all heavy weaponry, the release of all prisoners and the delivery of humanitarian aid to devastated cities in eastern Ukraine.

THE NEW MEXICAN Lunes, 8 de septiembre, 2014

EL NUEVO MEXICANO En inmigración, nuevamente embaucados CHICAGO nadie le gusta la conveniencia política cuando ésta no se ajusta a los objetivos propios. Cuando el presidente Obama anunció su programa de Acción Diferida para Los que Llegaron de Niños (DACA, por sus siglas en inglés) — que permitía que jóvenes inmigrantes ilegales obtuvieran categoría legal temporal, licencias de conducir y permisos de trabajo — sus seguidores no se quejaron diciendo que era una artimaña política para asegurarse la reelección. Pero no se confundan: la DACA fue creada para activar a los hispanos — tantos a los que pueden como a los que no pueden votar — y reforzar el apoyo hispano en una batalla electoral de verano, durante la cual Obama luchó por congregar a su base con más esperanza. En aquel momento, los inmigrantes jóvenes sentían cauteloso optimismo con Esther respecto al aplazamiento que Cepeda se les concedería en relación Comentario con la deportación o sostenían la creencia errónea de que el presidente convertiría unilateralmente en ley el DREAM ACT. (Para recapitular: el presidente no aseguró los cinco votos demócratas que hubieran logrado la aprobación del DREAM ACT, con su camino a la ciudadanía, en 2010.) Muy pocos hablaban entonces de todos los jóvenes que no cumplían los requisitos para ampararse bajo la DACA ni de lo que sucedería si el presidente no obtenía la reelección. Sin duda, ninguno de los mayores seguidores y aliados de Obama presentó muchas críticas sobre la acción del presidente —aparte de decir que las directrices de DACA deberían haber sido más generosas, a fin de que aún más inmigrantes ilegales pudieran hacer uso de ellas. Pero hoy parece que el presidente no cumplirá con su promesa de proveer de alivio administrativo a la población indocumentada por medio de una orden ejecutiva. Y los que antes lo vitoreaban están ahora disgustados porque parece estar haciendo el cálculo político de retrasar esos cambios hasta las elecciones de mitad de período, para que los demócratas tengan más chances de ganar. Durante meses, atentos observadores han calculado los riesgos, para aquellos que sustentan cargos demócratas, de cualquier acción unilateral en inmigración. Aunque se ha hablado en alguna medida de que una amplia legalización potencial podría tener un impacto positivo en las chances de los demócratas de mantener la Casa Blanca en 2016, la mayoría de la cobertura se ha concentrado en las contiendas de este año por el Senado y la posibilidad de que los republicanos puedan captar la mayoría en esa cámara. Los demócratas expresaron esas inquietudes concernientes a contiendas en todo el país, durante más de un año. Sin embargo, hasta hace unos días, el presidente siguió afirmando que el final del verano de 2014 traerá ayuda a los inmigrantes que residen ilegalmente en el país. Ahora muchos seguidores de Obama están enviando mensajes electrónicos, desesperadamente, a los medios con sus súplicas de que el presidente cumpla con su palabra en inmigración. Y algunos hasta están criticando duramente sus promesas quebradas. Organizadores comunitarios en la ciudad de residencia del presidente y lugar de nacimiento de masivas marchas de inmigración en 2006 y 2007, planean protestas para expresar su decepción de que el presidente “prefiere la política [antes] que el legado.” No eran los únicos a quienes preocupaba el hecho de que Obama estaba, una vez más, dejando potenciales soluciones para la inmigración en suspenso. En Meet the Press, el domingo, la columnista del Washington Post, Ruth Marcus, lo expresó de la mejor manera: “Está titubeante. Lo vemos ir en una dirección y virar a la otra. … Expresó a los grupos hispanos y sindicales, que están muy concentrados en este asunto, que iba a actuar esencialmente a fines del verano. “De pronto está cambiando de idea. Está ahora en una posición en que va a exasperar a todos. … ¿Por qué no se pensó en esto cuando se anunció el 30 de junio que iba a obtener recomendaciones e iba a actuar, esencialmente, para fines del verano?” La cuestión real es cómo puede sorprender a nadie que el presidente pueda retirar su palabra una vez más. Lo ha hecho durante años, comenzando cuando era senador del estado de Illinois y prometió a seguidores hispanos que defendería su causa, para después votar de manera que dejó a los grupos de inmigrantes activistas desconcertados y perplejos. Acusen al presidente de optar por la conveniencia política — eso es lo que hacen los políticos— pero no se asombren. Los partidarios de Obama quizás estén sintiendo el azote de la incertidumbre. Pero quizás los defensores de los inmigrantes deban comenzar a ver al presidente y su partido como los oportunistas que son con respecto al tema de la inmigración.

La nueva directora de Santa Fe High School, Mary Massey, visita un aula el 25 de agosto. LUKE E. MONTAVON/THE NEW MEXICAN

La directora de Santa Fe High tiene planes para quedarse Por Robert Nott The New Mexican

on las 7:15 a.m. de un lunes, antes de que los estudiantes lleguen a la escuela, la directora de Santa Fe High School Mary Massey está sentada en una junta rodeada de cinco de los administradores principales. Su equipo discute la asistencia de los estudiantes, un nuevo plan de seguridad para revisar identificaciones de estudiantes y visitantes, las observaciones a maestros en los salones de clase y un avance del subsidio federal Title I. Massey quiere que su equipo se reúna cada semana para alcanzar metas y coordinar prioridades. Massey, de 57 años y oriunda de Iowa, es la cuarta directora a cargo de la escuela en los últimos cinco años y la tercera desde enero. La rotación ha causado ansiedad en el personal y ha añadido retos a los ya existentes, desde el alto índice de pobreza hasta aumentar los niveles de graduación. Este verano, la escuela cayó de una B a una D en el sistema estatal de evaluaciones A-F. Aunado al esfuerzo por superar estos retos, Massey espera poder traer a la escuela algo que no ha tenido por años: estabilidad. Ella ha trabajado para el distrito escolar por 20 años. Vive a unos cuantos pasos de la escuela. Y no tiene planes para mudarse. “Le dije al personal que no tengo planes de ir a ningún lado,” comenta. La junta termina alrededor de las 8:40, Massey y su equipo se dirigen a diferentes puntos para ayudar a los estudiantes a llegar a las aulas. Los pasillos y los patios están llenos de estudiantes y personal. Algunos asienten a Massey. Otros estudiantes pasan a su lado — mientras ella emana un sentido de paz — aparentando que no la conocen. Un estudiante le comenta a Massey que tiene una clase en su horario que no debería tomar. Massey cortésmente le explica que converse con su profesor y si aún tiene problemas regrese. El resto del día Massey no tiene descanso. Observa a profesores en sus salones de clase, atiende a padres con preguntas, echa un vistazo a los estudiantes en los patios y la cafetería y

S

responde a innumerables llamadas y correos electrónicos. Massey fue nombrada directora en julio, remplazando a Patrick Lenihan, que tomó el cargo desde enero cuando Leslie Romero-Kilmer dejó el puesto para servir como director atlético del distrito. Lenihan renunció al cargo para tomar un trabajo en otro estado. Las transiciones han sido relativamente fáciles, pero no sin sobresaltos. “Hemos tenido tantos directores,” dice el maestro de historia Alan Korce, que ha enseñado en la escuela por 19 años. “Esto causa conflictos al cambiar el estilo de liderazgo, nuevas metas educativas y perspectivas de educación. El cambio no resulta imposible, pero si nos obliga a mantenernos alertas a los cambios conforme llegan. … Lo que queremos es permanencia.” El Superintendente Joel Boyd comenta que siempre que hay un alto nivel de rotación en el liderazgo, “Es una preocupación. Eso puede originar un cierto grado de inestabilidad dentro de la escuela.” Comenta que al parecer Massey encaja perfectamente en la escuela y confía en que permanecerá por varios años. Para Massey, lograr un ambiente de estabilidad en la escuela de más de 1,600 estudiantes — de los cuales 900 son de escasos recursos — es una prioridad. Al aceptar el puesto, Massey le dijo a su esposo, un reportero de la Prensa Asociada Barry Massey, “Esto es un compromiso de 24-7.” El puesto de liderazgo no ha sido algo nuevo para Massey, quien fue subdirectora de la escuela por dos años. De acuerdo a Massey su reto más grandeademás de la estabilidad — es crear un ambiente donde “los estudiantes quieren estar aquí y los profesores desean enseñar aquí.” Comenta que tiene tres metas: comunicación efectiva, altas expectativas para maestros y personal y celebrar los logros. “El desafío será poder seguir estos tres enfoques durante este año,” menciona.

sa mañana Canutito estaba waiting for the school bus con todos his other amiguitos. They were pushing unos a los otros and teasing como hacían every morning mientras que they were waiting por el bós. Canutito’s friend Filimotas, who was el más daring de los muchachitos, estaba haciendo show off para las muchachas. He would spit gargajos at their feet y también he would pick mocos out de su nose and hacer burp real loud. Las muchachas thought que he was todo gross Larry Torres cada vez que regoldaba. Growing up That mornSpanglish ing Filimotas era particularly awful. Estaba diciendo poemas como: “Teacher, teacher, I declare, yo le veo el underwear.” Después de que las girls hacían giggle, he would recite cosas que eran más daring como: “Teacher, teacher, ring la bell. Get tus books and go to Hell!” Pero esta vez the girls thought que he was just being disrespectful y no hicieron laugh at his tonterías. El school bus todavía no estaba anywhere in sight so las muchachas comenzaron a hacer jump rope. They began to chant sus jiggles mientras que hacían turn the rope: “Johnny cerca ‘el río, Johnny cerca ‘el sea, Johnny broke a bottle and he blamed sobre mí. I told ma. Ma told pa. Johnny got a friega and ha, ha, ha. Cuántos lickings did Johnny get? Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, seis … ” “Ese Johnny sounds como un total loser!” Filimotas declaró bien loud. Pero las muchachas todavía estaban haciéndolo ignore. Las girls continuaron con su jump rope: “No anoche, mas la night before, veinticuatro robbers came knocking at my door. I asked them ‘¿qué querían?’ and this is what they said: ‘ballet dancer turn around, ballet dancer toca el ground, ballet dancer tie tu shoe, ballet dancer vete del town’.” “Look todos, ¡yo soy una ballet dancer!” Filimotas called out flitting de un pie al otro. “Any tarugo can be a ballet dancer.” “I guess so,” said Alicia to him, “porque you are doing just fine.” Todos los muchitos giggled porque lo hizo put down. Filimotas hizo give up trying to impress a las muchachas y fue a ver what los boys estaban haciendo. Some of the muchachitos estaban in a corner del road trying to play marbles, pero Filimotas came over and kicked their bolitas away saying: “Let me teach you a real man’s game.” Mientras que todos were watching him, he took una navajita out of his pocket. “¿Qué vas a hacer with that jackknife?” Canutito asked him. “I am going to show you cómo jugar a la navajita,” Filimotas replied. He opened su jackknife and started to flip it off sus fingers. Cada vez que la navajita landed on the ground el blade would stick into it. Entonces Filimotas would try de hacerla flip off la back de su mano and make it stick. Ahora las girls came over a ver lo qué Filimotas was doing. Ahora que Filimotas tenía un large audience he tried cosas más daring with his navajita. Primero he flipped it desde su elbow. Entonces he flipped it desde su shoulder. Continuó by flipping la navajita off con su boca pero this time cuando la navajita came off his mouth, it landed, not on the ground, pero it stuck right into Filimotas’ shoe, going entre medio de sus toes. It stuck tan deep que Filimotas couldn’t mover su zapato from the ground. Just then, someone yelled out, “¡Aquí viene el bos!” Todos hicieron run off a pescar el bus pero Filimotas stayed trying to get su zapato unstuck de la navajita. Everybody just looked at him desde las ventanas del bós and laughed. “Serves him right,” said Alicia sitting next to Canutito and squeezing su mano. “I don’t like muchachos que siempre andan showing off.” Canutito nomás hizo smile. He was glad que él no tenía una navajita …

RIO GRANDE CITY, Texas — Not long ago, the U.S. Border Patrol was the only law enforcement agency monitoring the mesquite thickets and sugarcane fields along the Rio Grande, and an agent’s challenge was to distinguish between an exhausted immigrant and a threat. Now the thick brush is teeming with hundreds of state troopers, National Guardsmen and civilian militia members, all heavily armed and often wearing tactical vests and camouflage. Since illegal immigration spiked in the Rio Grande Valley this summer, the Border Patrol has dispatched more agents, the Texas Department of Public Safety has sent more troopers and Gov. Rick Perry deployed as many as 1,000 National Guardsmen to the area. Officials have refused to release exact numbers, but Texas is spending $1.3 million a week on troopers and about $12 million a month on the guardsmen. Field communication among the various armed agents is fragmented, and a recent friendly fire incident involving a militia member prompted the Border Patrol this week to urge that law enforcement be left to the professionals. Meanwhile, in border communities, some locals fear that the increased security presence is more of a threat. Coordination is challenging among the law enforcement entities alone. They use different radio equipment, which compli-

cates direct communication in the field. So their representatives sit side by side in a 24/7 command center to avoid surprises — “deconfliction” in law enforcement parlance. Each shift of Border Patrol agents is briefed on the presence and activities of other entities before going into the field. Armed civilian militias, which have joined the fray in unknown numbers, further complicate the effort. “Sometimes it can be dangerous, because you have all these [non-law enforcement] people out there running around the border,” said Kevin Oaks, the Border Patrol’s chief in the Rio Grande Valley. “There are cartel members that carry assault weapons and camouflage, and then there’s others

My fear is that these things clash and eventually there will be a very bad outcome.” That was nearly the case Aug. 29, when a Border Patrol agent pursuing a group of immigrants near the Rio Grande east of Brownsville spun around to find a man in civilian clothes holding a rifle. The agent fired several shots but didn’t hit the man, who was patrolling with a citizens’ militia group. The National Guard’s deployment so far has barely registered with area residents. Soldiers circulate mostly between their hotels and border observation points. State troopers, patrolling in their black and white vehicles, have been far more visible. On a recent evening, 15 troopers could be seen driving from one side of Rio Grande City to the other. They were among 31 units seen on a 35-mile stretch of border highway between Escobares and Penitas. Rio Grande City Mayor Ruben Villarreal is philosophical about the troopers lining his main street and the guardsmen filling his Holiday Inn. Border towns are often buffeted by decisions made in far off capitals on both sides of the border, and they learn to adapt and persevere over time. “Living along the border has made us so resilient,” Villarreal said. “If we want a sense of security in the nation — because it’s not just security for Rio Grande City or Texas, it’s for the nation — we have to understand there are going to be compromises.”

Luján already is preparing to take office. But he is silent on whether Rodella should quit now or finish his term. “It’s not appropriate for me to say,” Luján said in an interview. But he has plenty to say about the sheriff’s office. Luján said Rodella ran a loose department. Certain deputies arrived at work in jeans and longsleeved T-shirts, not uniforms, he said. To Luján, they looked sloppy and unprofessional. Appearances were not Luján’s only worry. He said he saw some deputies use excessive force in making arrests. Others were indifferent or rude to the public they were supposed to serve, Luján said. By his account, Luján regularly criticized other members of Rodella’s regime. “I was a Marine for 11 years, and I have opinions. I used to speak up all the time. Maybe he [Rodella] took offense when I corrected deputies or discussed the way they were doing their job,” Luján said. He rates some employees in the Rio Arriba County Sheriff’s Office as skilled and able. He has questions about other officers, wondering if they have been through psychological screenings, if they were subjected to the required background investigations or if they hold the appropriate certification for police work.

“Understanding Global Warming”

Donald Neidig National Solar Observatory (Ret) Wednesday, September 10 6 – 7:30 PM O’Keeffe Education Annex 123 Grant Avenue, Santa Fe Exactly what do we mean by global warming? How can we be sure it’s happening and how can we identify its cause? These basic questions are explored using observational data and scientific reasoning. Despite the complexity of the climate system, it is possible to understand how Earth’s surface temperature responds to increased concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. The present human-caused warming of climate really is not surprising, as similar patterns of change in temperature and atmospheric composition are known to have occurred in Earth’s distant past. Admission is Free. Youth (ages 13-19) seating a priority, but all are welcome! Don is a retired astrophysicist, having studied solar activity at the National Solar Observatory for 28 years. He has also been a high-school science teacher and a professor at several colleges. He has degrees in chemistry and astronomy, and took up the study of climate change as a retirement project in 2004. Presently he is chairman of the Academy for Learning in Retirement, New Mexico State University. Go to www.sfafs.org or call 603-7468 for more information.

deputy in Rio Arriba County for eight years, but said the turnover rate in the sheriff’s office was so high that he doesn’t know many of the men and women he will be supervising. He plans to install his own undersheriff and major, surrounding himself with trusted people at the higher echelon. That will leave at least 24 other officers for him to review. Luján says he has heard from people who want him to start work now, instead of January when his term normally would begin. For him to start early, Rodella would have to yield to his critics by resigning. Elephants will dance on the Santa Fe Plaza before Rodella willingly gives up a paycheck. But the stakes are higher than what little is left of Rodella’s career as sheriff. No matter what you think of him, Rodella is entitled to the same presumption of innocence that you or I would expect if we were charged with a crime. Taxpayers may have to hold their nose until Luján becomes the sheriff, but that is preferable to a rush to judgment in which accusations against Rodella are considered synonymous with guilt.

data about a community’s racial and ethnic makeup with staffing surveys by the Justice Department for more than 1,400 police departments from 1987 and 2007, the most recent year for which the data are available. The AP then analyzed how different a department’s racial makeup was from the population it served. The AP found that since 1987, black representation on police forces has improved, such as in New Orleans and in East Orange and Plainfield, N.J. At least 49 departments had a majority Hispanic population, yet more than half of the police department was white. Efforts to improve relationships between police departments and communities date to the 1950s and ’60s, when some departments started creating community relations units. Among the most balanced police departments in diverse cities are in Miami Beach, Fla.; Oak Park Village, Ill.; Pasadena City, Calif.; Bexar County, Texas; Cambridge, Mass.; New Orleans; Seattle; and Washington, D.C. But a diversified police force does not

solve all the problems. New Orleans, for example, is among the most racially balanced departments in the country. Yet in 2011, the Justice Department found that it discriminated against African Americans. There are similar concerns in the Hispanic community. The executive director of Puentes New Orleans, Carolina Hernandez, said her group has been working with local police to bridge the divide between officers and the Latino community. “If you’re here to protect and serve,” she said, “it’s hard to accomplish that when the community automatically doesn’t trust you.” The U.S. government recognized the importance of recruiting more minority police officers as early as 1968, with that recommendation from the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders, convened by President Lyndon Johnson after deadly riots in a series of cities the previous year. But it would be years before police departments made real efforts. Some departments still

Police notes The Santa Fe Police Department took the following reports: u A male employee of Allsup’s, 650 Cerrillos Road, told police that a Hispanic man used a folding box cutter to threaten the employee and steal nine boxes of cigarettes worth $600 at about noon Saturday. The suspect is described as being 5-foot-8, 145 pounds, with brown eyes, a shaved head, moustache, goatee, and a tattoo or mark by his eye. He was wearing a black-and-white flannel shirt and shorts and fled the scene on foot. u Police arrested Aaron Foster, 28, of Santa Fe at 1 p.m. Saturday on an outstanding arrest warrant near the intersection of Guadalupe Street and Cerrillos Road. He was charged with failure to appear, concealing his identification, resisting arrest and failure to comply on charges of battery. u A Callejon Emilia resident told police someone threw a brick through the rear window of her white 2008 Pontiac and used red and black permanent markers to write explicit words on it. The incident occurred between 10:30 p.m. Friday and 3 p.m. Saturday. u A Hopi Road resident at 3:30 p.m. Friday noticed a rear window of her house was open. She said she believed she interrupted a burglary in progress, and police arrested a known burglar who was spotted casually exiting an adjoining backyard. The woman discovered multiple items, including a flat-screen Samsung television worth $200, missing from her home. The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office took the following report: u Someone stole electronics, tools and personal items worth $160 from a vehicle parked Saturday on Gils Way.

DWI arrests u Police arrested Raymond Mendez, 42, of Santa Fe at 1:41 a.m. Saturday and charged him with aggravated driving while intoxicated, no insurance and driving with a suspended license. u Police arrested Ivania Cruz, 24, of Santa Fe at 9:30 p.m. Saturday near the intersection of Hickox Street and Kathryn Avenue and charged her with aggravated drunken driving and reckless driving after her vehicle struck a parked vehicle on the street. u Police arrested Xavier Valasquez, 27, of Santa Fe and charged him with driving while intoxicated, careless driving and possession of drug paraphernalia at 4:25 a.m. Sunday on Cerrillos Road.

struggle with it today. “It is one of the challenges that I inherited,” said Adrian Garcia, the sheriff in Harris County, Texas. The first Hispanic sheriff of the sprawling county that includes Houston, Garcia said his department is not representative of the community. But he’s trying to change that. “I call myself the chief recruiter,” Garcia said. “I have to talk to the community and let them know what we want their sons and daughters to serve the community.” Garcia said he does not think a police department that does not look like the community it protects is more prone to discrimination than more racially diverse departments. “But it leaves that perception,” Garcia said. “As long as the community can point and say, ‘There’s no one that looks like me, and as a result, I feel like I was treated unjustly,’ it opens up the argument that maybe the policies are shortsighted in how you work with a diverse community.”

Desfile: Some came to impress Continued from Page A-1 ago to showcase the creative side of the city, and quite a few local business owners and community organizations put a lot of time and effort into their floats. The entry from Brookdale Ponce De Leon, for instance, consisted of a chickenwire-framed 1939 Chevy covered in tan tissue paper — a hit with the crowd. Acting Director Deborah Gallegos said she and engineer Fred Rael built the car over a period of three months. “If you are going to build a memorable float that has true meaning, you have to start about a month ahead,” she said. “Get a lot of volunteers to help.” Chris Lopez and his staff at Lakote Tattoos and Body Piercing created a roughly 15-foot-high Zozobra adorned with tattoos. “They did a throwback of Zozobra during Fiesta, so we thought, ‘Let’s tattoo and pierce him and bring him up to date,’ ” Lopez said. The group’s Zozo almost lost his head when the truck he was standing on passed under a stretch of trees on Guadalupe Street, but the puppet survived the near-decapitation and proved to be one of the more popular attractions among the kids on the streets. The Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe, which sponsors the annual burning of Zozobra, had a float featuring a more traditional marionette and a huge, white Zozobra hand bearing the words, “I’ll be back!” Employees of Signs of Santa Fe joined together to build a pirate ship, complete with a big, blue parrot sitting on one scalawag’s shoulder. Co-owner Patrykk Ortiz said that when businesses work to create a really colorful float it raises the bar for competitors the next year. His father, 71-yearold Fred Ortiz, said he wants next year’s float to feature him reclining in a coffin. That way, he joked, the whole town will come out for his funeral. Kids from Santo Niño

Chris Lopez and his staff at Lakote Tattoos and Body Piercing created a float featuring a tattooed Zozobra.

Regional Catholic School of Santa Fe donned costumes and used stuffed animals to transform their float into Noah’s Ark. One little boy clad in an impressive crocodile bodysuit clearly got sweaty under the blazing sun and took his head off about halfway through the procession. Photographer and activist Lisa Law’s Peace Bus offered a 1960s peace, love and hippies theme as a band poised atop it sang “All You Need Is Love.” Low-hanging trees also threatened that rooftop group as they drove up Palace Avenue. A bit of cowboy drama erupted late in the procession as a restless white mare at the end of the line reared up on two legs with its rider to the delight of the kids watching the spectacle. It was unclear if it was a planned bit of business or an impromptu celebration of independence on the equine’s part. “Do a wheelie!” one teenager in the crowd yelled in encouragement to the horse. In general, spectators were not prone to complaining, although some did gripe about the long wait between some floats and a few bystanders said they wished the event had been devoid of political energy. “It cheapens it,” one man said.

think the political campaign people have now gone too far. On Aug. 11, I found political material under the windshield wiper of my car parked under my carport — a good 70 feet in from the street.

Come back Emanating from the Plaza Community Stage, notes and words of the Peter Rowan song, “Come Back to Old Santa Fe,” recently stirred many thoughts. Santa Feans, tourists and even those who have “outgrown Santa Fe” seem to desire to come back to the city. Why does the city continually attract and re-attract? Well, it is unique. Vibrant cultures have flourished here. Santa Fe has witnessed strife replaced with peace, opposition become cooperation, dislike evolve into admiration and respect, dry and rugged terrain nourish art, music, dance and dialogue. Oh, that the long-fractured nations may also find a path to acceptance! Many a returnee secretly recalls yesteryear’s first dance, procession, market or perfor-

Money trumps all Dr. Frantz Melio, president of the Christus St. Vincent Medical Group, expressed that increased staffing isn’t needed at the local hospital (“Researcher: More staff does

mean better care,” Aug. 17). He said, “At this point, with the results we’re driving, we’ve probably got pretty close to the mix of caregivers we need. ” Need more be said? But more is. Having made the nurse’s case with that extraordinary self-revealing statement, hospital administrators say in the article that, “during a time of funding uncertainty, with reductions in government reimbursements for services, pledging a specific staffing level constitutes a financial gamble.” Translation: We prefer to gamble on the health of our patients —

human beings — rather than on the possibility that our corporate earnings could slip a few pennies. Money trumps all! A final note of thanks to The New Mexican’s Patrick Malone for his piercing and well-written treatment of this critical issue (stay the course, Malone), and to all the nurses who, ignoring possible administration retaliation, in whatever form, are telling it like it is on the hospital floor where all this is playing out every day. Thank you. Jack Allen

world’s leader in this unenviable race. Recently, Mexico (71.3 percent), took our place. (In China, the combined obesityoverweight rate is hovering at under 30 percent, still frightening.) Yet Mexico, which many Americans and Europeans haughtily consider primitive, was the first major nation in the world to institute significant soda and junk food taxes. That law went into effect early this year, and the results are already positive: sales of soda are slipping. In the 21st century, it is inevitable that nearly every citizen of the world has been and will continue to be affected by the scourge of junk food and liquid candy. Even though intelligent proposals abound, few countries have attempted to curb their marketing or sales. Without limits, the consumption of unhealthy foods will result in higher rates of obesity, and therefore an increase in associated diseases and premature deaths. If we know how to diminish needless human suffering and mortality, why would we not? As Mexico has shown, it’s the responsibility of government to protect its population from hyper-processed food. China has the potential to apply the lessons learned not only from its own positive experience dealing with communicable disease, but from the tragic mistakes made by so-called developed nations. It has a chance to turn the tide against disease-causing diets before it’s too late. Sadly, we may need its example to wake up to our own problems. Li Bin, China’s new minister of health and family planning, ‘has the political will’ and the support of international colleagues to address chronic, preventable diseases, according to the authors of a recent editorial in The Lancet.

ocal fans of the A&E television show Longmire have more reason than most fans to mourn its cancellation. The show, set in Wyoming but filmed in Northern New Mexico, is an excellent police procedural, with actors whose friendship feels real — not forced. Featuring a Wyoming sheriff (Walt Longmire, played by Robert Taylor) the third-year show has been A&E’s most-watched scripted show. That’s why its cancellation caught so many people by surprise. With 3.7 million viewers, fans thought the show was safe. However, in TV today, it’s not just how many viewers a show has, it’s whether those viewers are young enough. Longmire also wasn’t owned by the network, lessening its value after syndication, according to Hollywood experts. For Santa Fe, the rejection is personal. Our friends and neighbors who worked on the show are out of a job — at least for now. (When announcing that the show would film in New Mexico a third season, the New Mexico Film Office estimated some 100 New Mexicans worked on the show, whether on the crew or as actors and background talent throughout the series.) Longmire is being shopped around, and with its ratings, there’s a better-than-decent chance that Longmire will ride again (thank goodness, considering the last episode of the season is a cliffhanger. Did the bullet land?) To show support, actor Lou Diamond Phillips (Henry on the show) is asking fans to tweet using the hashtag, #LongLiveLongmire. Author Craig Johnson — who wrote the books on which the series is based — also is holding out hope that fans can revive the show. Absaroka County is not vanishing, at least not if fans make enough noise. Meanwhile, those of us who enjoy seeing Santa Fe on screen can watch Manhattan, the intense drama focused on the secret city of Los Alamos and the development of the atom bomb. The history might be less than accurate, but the characters and writing are strong. Broadcast on WGN, the well-reviewed series has been called one of the best of the summer. With that, and the Breaking Bad spinoff, Better Call Saul, being filmed in Albuquerque, New Mexico isn’t leaving the small screen any time soon. If fans make a ruckus, though, we can remain a stand-in for Wyoming, and get back to Absaroka County — soon.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Sept. 8, 1914: J.W. Huggins was in from the vicinity of Quay on Tuesday with a big load of watermelons. The largest weighed more than 50 pounds, and he sold one dozen, which averaged 32 pounds to the Jackson grocery. The money wasn’t very much, considering the distance they had to travel and the trouble raising them, but Huggins was satisfied that many of our citizens enjoyed the fine fruit. Sept. 8, 1964: About 65 percent of the businesses in Santa Fe’s Historical Zone have signs that will have to be replaced or altered by Oct. 25, the effective date of the “H-Zone Sign Ordinance.” City building Inspector Mel Hagman said today a survey was made of all signs in the city’s historical zone. It found that 95 businesses had signs that did not conform to the H-Zone regulations. Sept. 8, 1989: Capitán — Nineteen black bears that had ravaged sheep herds in Lincoln County were shot to death by government hunters because there was no place to move them to, officials said. U.S. Department of Agriculture field agents confirmed at least 60 sheep dead, and autopsies showed sheep meat in most of the slain bears’ stomachs, USDA District Supervisor Larry Kilgo said. He said field agents shot the bears on the authority of state Game and Fish Department permits. Jim Vaught, chief of game and fish field operations in Santa Fe, said it’s difficult to successfully move bears after they’ve raided herds of livestock. “Once they get that free lunch, they’re pretty well doomed,” Vaught said. “Also,” he added, “relocated bears are often killed by bears whose territory they have invaded.”

GM to offer car that will almost drive itself By Tom Krisher The Associated Press

Chris Cox, Facebook’s chief product officer, announced on May 7 a redesign of the social media site’s newsfeed, in Menlo Park, Calif. YouTube is still the big gorilla of online video, but Facebook’s ability to leverage social connections, along with changes to the news feed to better showcase video, have helped fuel rapid growth in the amount of video viewed on the service over the past year.

Facebook’s feeds give videos a boost By Vindu Goel The New York Times

MENLO PARK, Calif. n Friday morning, Beyoncé posted a video on Facebook and YouTube that took her fans behind the scenes to see the preparations for her live performance last month at the MTV Video Music Awards. In the first four hours, Facebook users watched the video 2.4 million times. On YouTube, the fourminute clip garnered just a few thousand views during that time. The difference: Many of the singer’s 64 million Facebook fans spotted the video in their news feeds and shared it with their friends. People who saw it on Google’s YouTube did not have such an easy way to spread their enthusiasm. “For us, Facebook has become the primary platform that we use to communicate content to fans,” said Lauren Wirtzer Seawood, head of digital at Parkwood Entertainment, Beyoncé’s management company. YouTube is still the big gorilla of online video, especially as an archive for work with lasting appeal and as a place where creators can make money from ads sold around their mate-

rial. But Facebook’s ability to use social connections to make content popular quickly, along with changes the social network has made to its news feed to showcase video better, have helped fuel rapid growth in the amount of video viewed on the service over the last year. Since June, Facebook, which has about 1.3 billion monthly users worldwide, has served up an average of a billion video views a day, two-thirds of them on mobile devices. About 100 million new videos are uploaded every month. While that is a small fraction of YouTube’s traffic, it is up significantly from just a few months ago. Chris Cox, Facebook’s chief product officer, said video was still in its infancy on Facebook. Ordinary users are just starting to learn how to shoot great video on their smartphones, and most professional video creators do not yet know how to use the social network to amplify their audiences. The company itself is just beginning to grapple with how to give its users a satisfying video experience on the site. In December, Facebook began to play videos automatically, with the sound off, when users scrolled past them in their news

feeds. But the feature, which can be turned off, upset some people who had to pay for extra data use on their mobile phones. Facebook has since changed the auto-play function to minimize data consumption and added an option for mobile users to enable auto-play only when they are on a Wi-Fi connection. Facebook also needed to upgrade its infrastructure to host more video and deliver it quickly and smoothly — a goal the company is still working on, along with other improvements. “We don’t support embedding right now. We should,” Cox said in an interview, referring to the ability to incorporate a Facebook video into other sites. “We need to make sure people have good controls over how and what videos they are seeing.” While that will take some time, Facebook plans to announce this week some new tools for video publishers to help them monitor and improve the performance of their offerings. Chief among them is a public counter that shows how many times a video has been watched — a feature that Seawood, who obsessively checks data about the visitors to Beyoncé’s Facebook page, and others have been asking for.

“Fans want to look at videos that other people are watching,” she said. “When you see a video that has 17 million views, you want to watch it to see what 17 million people found interesting.” Video creators are still plumbing the mysteries of what type of video does best on Facebook. BBC News, for example, has found that breaking news is best suited to Twitter, whose users are constantly looking for the latest information. Less-time-sensitive stories do well on Facebook, and raw video, shot by individuals or pulled from closed-circuit cameras, is particularly successful. “The poor quality lends it this authentic quality,” said Chris Hamilton, social media editor of BBC News. One of the BBC’s biggest hits was a time-lapse video of dozens of commuters in Perth, Australia, who gathered to push a train car to rescue a man whose leg had been trapped between the platform and the train. BuzzFeed, a news and entertainment site, now produces many of its pieces with Facebook in mind. Videos are designed to hook a viewer in the first few seconds that they auto-play in a feed, and key points are conveyed through words on the screen so they can be understood without sound.

DETROIT — Cars that can talk to each other and almost drive themselves at freeway speeds are just two years away from the showroom, according to General Motors executives. The company announced Sunday that the semiautonomous system for freeways will be an option on an unidentified new 2017 Cadillac that goes on sale in the summer of 2016. In addition, another 2017 Cadillac, the CTS, will be equipped with radio transmitters and receivers that will let it communicate with other cars, sharing data such as location, speed and whether the driver is applying the brakes. The announcements were made Sunday at the opening of the Intelligent Transportation Society World Congress being held in Detroit this week. They are part of a barrage of similar declarations that are expected from other companies throughout the week as the industry shows off progress toward self-driving and safer cars. The freeway system, dubbed “Super Cruise,” uses cameras and radar to keep the car in the center of a lane and also stay a safe distance behind cars in front of it. The system will bring the car to a complete stop if traffic halts without driver action, and it can keep the car going in stop-and-go traffic. Other automakers, such as Mercedes-Benz, now offer similar systems that work at low speeds, but GM says it’s the first to announce a system that operates at highway speeds. Others could have freeway systems in two years, though. “If the mood strikes you on the high-speed road from Barstow, Calif., to Las Vegas, you can take a break from the wheel and pedals and let the car do the work,” CEO Mary Barra said in remarks prepared for the conference’s keynote address on Sunday. But GM said the car still won’t drive itself, and the company is Mary Barra, working on a system to monitor CEO of GM drivers to make sure they’re still pay- motors ing attention. Details of that system weren’t released. “Sensing technology is not yet to the point where the driver can check out,” said John Capp, GM’s director of global safety strategy. “This is a level of automation that can be done, that is feasible.” The new Cadillac that will get Super Cruise hasn’t been officially announced yet. But executives have hinted that GM will build a big rear-drive Caddy to lead its lineup in the coming years. Also Sunday, the Michigan Department of Transportation announced that it will partner with GM, Ford Motor Co. and the University of Michigan to build a pilot project connecting cars and roads on 120 miles of Detroit-area freeways. They gave no time frame for the project to start working, but said it would give southeast Michigan the lead in development of autonomous vehicles and those that talk to each other. Sensors and transmitters along freeways would pick up information from cars and transmit it to other vehicles, telling them of stopped or slowed traffic ahead, or even that another car has slammed on its brakes. Initially the system would only issue warnings to drivers of cars equipped with the receivers, but eventually the cars could actually control themselves. It would be on stretches of Interstates 94, 75 and 696 as well as parts of U.S. 23. The freeway and vehicle-to-vehicle technology can’t go into place until the U.S. government develops standards, including radio frequencies and security from hackers. The Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is now working on those standards.

And while it used to be assumed that you had a reasonable expectation of privacy in places like your home, privacy on the Internet or anything connected to it has proved difficult to defend. It doesn’t help if you willingly share information with other people — and companies — on social media. Your phone may also be tracking your precise location and compiling a complete record of your whereabouts. Although the Supreme Court ruled this year that police can’t search a phone without a warrant, the federal government has argued that it doesn’t need a warrant to obtain that history from cellular providers, because you can’t reasonably expect that information to be private. The ads you click on and your search history paint a picture of what you buy, what interests you and what ails you. Even your email and personal messages may be fair game. Google said in a 2013 court filing that users had no reasonable expectation that their email communications are confidential. That’s a wind-up to say that for young people — and maybe even some of the older ones — there is plenty of data pointing to a need to think twice about their online behavior. Last year around this time, the Pew Research Center reported that 86 percent of Internet users had taken some kind of steps to avoid being identified or tracked online, even though almost 60 percent of them thought that true online anonymity was impossible. They might be right about anonymity, but others might still argue that keeping at least some privacy is worth a shot.

Denver fends off Luck’s surge to beat Indianapolis By Arnie Stapleton The Associated Press

DENVER eyton Manning warned it wasn’t going to be easy replacing Wes Welker. The Denver Broncos held on to beat the Indianapolis Colts 31-24 on Sunday night after Manning threw three firsthalf touchdown passes to tight end Julius Thomas. In his second try, Manning beat his old team and joined Brett Favre as the only quarterbacks to beat each of the current 32 NFL franchises.

“It means I’m old,” Manning cracked. More heart-pounders like this and Manning will go gray. The Broncos raced out to a 24-0 lead, a perfect test for GM John Elway’s blueprints for returning to the Super Bowl. He spent more than $100 million on a defensive makeover and retooled his offensive line. The Broncos were unable to close this one out like they wanted, however. With Welker serving a four-game suspension for violating the NFL’s policy on performance-enhancing drugs, the Broncos couldn’t convert third downs, going 1 for 7 in the second half after a first half in which they went 6 of 7. “We’ve got to find a way to play all four quarters as an offense,” Manning said. “Thank goodness the defense picked us up when the offense wasn’t doing their job quite as well.”

The Broncos fended off a furious comeback attempt by Andrew Luck, who was working wonders behind a patchwork offensive line. “We did manage to take advantage of some opportunities in the second half that we didn’t in the first. It was good to get that two-minute drive right at the end of the half,” said Luck, whose 9-yard scamper made it 24-7 at the break and provided a spark for the Colts. “Obviously, when you start the way that we started, you dig yourself a hole you can’t come back from,” Colts coach Chuck Pagano said. Both teams left the stadium talking about needing to clean up their play. “It wasn’t the best win, but guess what, it was a great opener,” said DeMarcus Ware,

ATLANTA — Matt Bryant kicked a 51-yard field goal on the final play of regulation, then booted a 52-yarder in Falcons 37 overtime to give the Atlanta FalSaints 34 cons a 37-34 victory over the New Orleans Saints. In another thriller between the NFC South rivals Sunday, Matt Ryan threw for a franchise-record 448 yards, leading the Falcons to just their fourth victory over the Saints in the last 17 meetings. This one was particularly sweet for Atlanta (1-0) coming off a miserable 4-12 season, its first losing campaign since 2007. The teams combined for 17 points in the final 2:50 of the fourth quarter to force overtime. The Saints (0-1) got the ball first, but Marques Colston fumbled after catching a pass over the middle. The Falcons recovered at the Saints 38; after three plays gained only 4 yards, Bryant booted through another long field goal. BILLS 23, BEARS 20 (OT) In Chicago, Fred Jackson set up Dan Carpenter’s field goal in overtime with a 38-yard run to the 1, and the Bills stunned the Bears. The Bears (0-1) had just punted to open the extra period and Buffalo took over on its 22. The Bills (1-0) got to the Chicago 39 when Jackson turned toward the left side and broke off his big run, pushing safety Chris Conte out of the way twice inside the 10 before being knocked out of bounds at the 1. Carpenter won it with a 27-yarder.

‘Fright Night’ will feature six fights By James Barron The New Mexican

Ryan, Bryant lead Falcons past Saints in overtime The Associated Press

The Lobo football team has gotten a glimpse of the future, and its name is Lamar Jordan. The freshman quarterback made his college debut Saturday night during The University of New Mexico’s 58-23 loss to No. 16 Arizona State at University Stadium. Subbing for an ineffective Clayton Mitchem late in the first quarter, the diminutive signal caller showed flashes of his potential in running the first-team offense for the first time. Repeatedly calling himself “blessed” for having the opportunity to play football at UNM, the 5-foot-10, 183-pound product of Frisco, Texas, fared better than expected against one of the country’s top teams. Arizona State jumped to No. 14 in the coaches’ top 25 poll this week and to No. 16 in The Associated Press poll. “You grow up playing pee wee, looking at college football, NFL, picturing yourself in those games, playing the video games, picturing yourself in those games,” Jordan said. “To be out there is just a blessing. I’m just so happy and fortunate to play with those other 10 players out there and just to help my team out.” Mitchem started for injured firststringer Cole Gautsche, but he was yanked after two fruitless possessions, including the second drive in which his lost fumble led to a Sun Devils touchdown. Jordan passed for 130 yards and

STEELERS 30, BROWNS 27 In Pittsburgh, Shaun Suisham drilled a 41-yard field goal as time expired. The Steelers blew a 24-point halftime lead as the Browns rallied behind quarterback Brian Hoyer, but escaped thanks to some great plays from Ben Roethlisberger and wide receiver Markus Wheaton. Roethlisberger hit Wheaton twice on the winning drive, including a 20-yarder that put Suisham in range to send the Browns to their 10th straight season-opening loss. Roethlisberger passed for 365 yards and a touchdown. Hoyer threw for 230 yards and a score and played brilliantly at times in the second half in a performance that should strengthen his grip on the starting job over rookie Johnny Manziel. BENGALS 23, RAVENS 16 In Baltimore, A.J. Green caught a 77-yard touchdown pass from Andy Dalton, and the Bengals blew a 15-point lead before bouncing back. Green got behind cornerback Chykie Brown, who was pressed into a starting role for the injured Lardarius Webb. The ball popped from Green’s grasp before he gathered it in. That TD, along with the 2-pont conversion, came 48 seconds after Baltimore newcomer Steve Smith caught an 80-yard touchdown pass from Joe Flacco. Following Green’s score, Flacco took the Ravens to the Cincinnati 16 before he was sacked on fourth down. Mike Nugent kicked five field goals for a 15-0 halftime lead and

Pat Holmes Sr. announced another fight card set for October that will headline his son, Brandon Holmes, as well as former champion Monica Lovato. The event, which is being called “Fright Night,” is set for Oct. 4 at Buffalo Thunder and Casino and has six fights scheduled with a seventh in the works. The co-main events feature Brandon Holmes, of Santa Fe, against Roswell’s John Herrera in the light welterweight division in a sixround fight. It is the longest scheduled fight for the 21-year-old, who just had his first decision in a unanimous decision over Eric Gonzalez in May. Lovato fights for the first time since her January technical knockout of D.J. Morrison, which represented her first fight in almost six years. Pat Holmes Sr., promoter and trainer, said she will face Jordan Salinas, of Denver. Also fighting on the card is Albuquerque bantamweight Angelo Leo, who is 5-0 on his young career. He take son his second out-of-state opponent when he take on Quincy Westby, from Dallas,. Also scheduled to fight is Pat Holmes Jr., Brian Mendoza and Sean Gallegos, although their opponents are to be determined Pat Holmes Sr. said those bouts should be finalized by mid-week. It is the fourth fight card at Buffalo Thunder in the past 18 months, and Pat Holmes Sr. says the success of the previous three weighed in returning to the venue. “They have been really good for us,” Pat Holmes Sr. said. “It’s like home for us. We’ve had three sellouts there and it’s a great way to start off the fall.” He added that ticket sales have been strong so far, and will continue until sold out. Tickets can be purchased by calling 795-2772 or 699-2845.

Serena Williams wins 3rd U.S. Open in row, 18th Slam By Howard Fendrich The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Serena Williams ended a difficult-for-her Grand Slam season in the best way possible, winning her third consecutive U.S. Open title by beating Caroline Wozniacki 6-3, 6-3 on Sunday. Williams equaled Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova with 18 major singles titles, the fourth-most in history. Williams also matched Evert’s total of six championships at the U.S. Open and became the first woman to win three in a row since Evert’s fourtitle run from 1975-78. Williams earned $4 million, a record in tennis — $3 million for the title, plus

a $1 million bonus for having had the best results during the North American summer hard-court circuit. It was a dominant performance to cap a Serena dominant two weeks Williams in Flushing Meadows. Not only did Williams, ranked and seeded No. 1, win all 14 sets she played in the tournament, she never even dropped more than three games in any of them. Until the U.S. Open, though, Williams had not been at her best on her sport’s biggest stages in 2014. She lost

in the fourth round at the Australian Open, the second round at the French Open, and the third round at Wimbledon, where a disoriented Williams also struggled through an odd appearance in doubles that was attributed to a viral illness. Back at the top of her game, Williams broke Wozniacki’s serve five times and compiled a hard-to-believe 29-4 edge in winners. Remarkably, until a cross-court backhand on the run in the final game that even Williams applauded, the only winners registered by the 10thseeded Wozniacki came on a trio of aces, one in the first set, two in the second.

That was, in part, a result of the Dane’s iffy play in only her second Grand Slam final — she lost to Kim Clijsters at the 2009 U.S. Open — but more due to Williams’ relentless pursuit of every ball. A few weeks shy of her 33rd birthday, making the American the oldest major champion since Navratilova was 33 at Wimbledon in 1990, Williams simply would not allow a shot to get past her. Wozniacki is the one training for the New York City Marathon, but Williams tired her out by the end. Wozniacki was not exactly an extra in this Williams highlight reel, but pretty close to it. The points were being directed by Williams, whether

via serves that reached 120 mph, forceful returns that backed Wozniacki into a corner when not producing outright winners, unreachable groundstrokes from all angles or even the occasional volley. Yes, this, as might have been expected, was really all about Williams. At times, it felt as if Wozniacki were there because, well, someone needed to be on the opposite side of the net to act as Williams’ opponent. They’ve been good pals for years, and they hung out together in Miami — heading to the beach, watching an NBA playoff game — right after both lost early at the French Open in May.


SPORTS

NFL: Patriots’ 1st opening loss since 2003 Continued from Page B-1 the Bengals ended a four-game losing streak in Baltimore. DOLPHINS 33, PATRIOTS 20 In Miami Gardens, Fla., Knowshon Moreno rushed for 134 yards and a touchdown, Ryan Tannehill threw for two scores and the Dolphins overpowered New England after halftime. The Dolphins (1-0) outscored New England 23-0 in the second half. Tannehill had touchdown throws to Lamar Miller and Mike Wallace as Miami debuted a faster-paced offense. The Dolphins’ defense made four sacks, all in the second half, and recovered two fumbles. Tom Brady threw a scoring pass to Rob Gronkowski, and Shane Vereen had a TD rushing for New England. It was New England’s first loss in an opener since 2003, and marks the first time the Patriots (0-1) will not be at least tied for the AFC East lead since Week 3 of 2012. EAGLES 34, JAGUARS 17 In Philadelphia, Nick Foles threw a 68-yard touchdown pass to Jeremy Maclin in the fourth quarter and the Eagles rallied from a 17-0 second-half deficit. Chad Henne threw two touchdown passes to rookie Allen Hurns in the first quarter and the Jaguars (0-1) dominated the defending NFC East champion Eagles (1-0) in the first two quarters. But whatever Chip Kelly said to his players at halftime worked. The Eagles scored TDs on their first two possessions in the third quarter. Cody Parkey hit a 51-yard field goal on his first career attempt in the fourth quarter to tie it 17-17. Then Foles made a perfect deep throw to a wide-open Maclin for the longest pass of his career to put the Eagles ahead 24-17. TEXANS 17, REDSKINS 6 In Houston, rookie Alfred Blue blocked a punt and returned it for a touchdown and J.J. Watt lived up to his massive new con-

tract to help Texans snap a 14-game losing streak. The Texans led 7-6 after a 76-yard touchdown reception by DeAndre Hopkins in the second quarter. Blue blocked Washington’s punt on the next drive, scooped it up and returned it 5 yards for a touchdown to push the lead to 14-6 in Bill O’Brien’s first game as an NFL head coach. Watt had a sack, blocked an extra point, recovered a fumble and swatted down a pass in his first game since signing a sixyear, $100 million contract Monday. First overall pick Jadeveon Clowney had a tackle for a loss in the first half before leaving with a knee injury. Robert Griffin III threw for 267 yards, but Washington was done in by two secondhalf fumbles in Jay Gruden’s debut as an NFL head coach. VIKINGS 34, RAMS 6 In St. Louis, wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson ran for 102 yards on three carries with a 67-yard scoring run off a simple pitchout and the Vikings opened impressively under new coach Mike Zimmer. The Rams handled Adrian Peterson, limiting the star runner to 75 yards on 21 carries. They had zero luck with Patterson, who had three touchdowns rushing as a rookie. Rams quarterback Shaun Hill lasted one half as the stand-in starter for Sam Bradford, missing the rest of the game with a thigh injury and leaving untested Austin Davis in charge. Hill’s last pass was intercepted by Josh Robinson with 1:09 to go in the half, setting up Matt Cassel’s 8-yard pass to Greg Jennings for a 13-0 lead. TITANS 26, CHIEFS 10 In Kansas City, Mo., Jake Locker threw for 266 yards and two touchdowns, while Alex Smith was intercepted three times. Locker picked apart a defense that lost linebacker Derrick Johnson and defensive tackle Mike DeVito to Achilles tendon injuries. Locker was 22 of 33 and found eight targets, including former Chiefs wide receiver Dexter McCluster. Kendall Wright and Delanie Walker had

TD catches for the Titans, and Ryan Succop was perfect on four field-goal attempts against the team that released him last weekend. Smith was 19 of 35 for 202 yards and a touchdown for a Chiefs offense missing suspended wide receiver Dwayne Bowe and right tackle Donald Stephenson. JETS 19, RAIDERS 14 In East Rutherford, N.J., Chris Ivory burst through a few tackle attempts for a 71-yard touchdown run midway through the fourth quarter, and the Jets’ defense clamped down on Oakland rookie quarterback Derek Carr. With still a one-score game, Ivory rushed up the middle and appeared stopped, but slipped a few would-be tacklers on his way to the end zone. A 2-point conversion failed, but the Jets held on to win their season opener. Geno Smith threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to Chris Johnson as the Jets sent the Raiders to their 14th straight loss in the Eastern time zone. Carr held his own in the first half, but the Jets pressured him throughout the final two quarters. He finished 20 of 32 for 151 yards and touchdown throws to Rod Streater and James Jones. PANTHERS 20, BUCCANEERS 14 In Tampa, Fla., Derek Anderson filled in nicely for injured Cam Newton, throwing for 230 yards and two touchdowns. Despite rallying with two late TDs, it was an ugly debut for the Bucs (0-1) under coach Lovie Smith. The defense applied little pressure on Anderson, and an offense that was among the worst in the NFL in 2013 showed few signs of improvement until midway through the fourth quarter. With Newton cheering from the sideline after being held out because of a rib injury suffered in preseason, Anderson completed 24 of 34 passes with no interceptions and one sack. The 10th-year pro tossed threw for TDs of 5 yards to Greg Olsen and 26 yards to rookie Kelvin Benjamin for defending NFC South champion Carolina (1-0).

Broncos: Manning 22 of 36 for 269 yards Continued from Page B-1 who had 1½ sacks in his Denver debut after franchise-high 117 in nine seasons in Dallas. Safety Rahim Moore had two interceptions in his first game since Nov. 17, when he underwent emergency surgery on his left calf because of a rare muscle condition known as compartment syndrome. Luck brought the Colts within a touchdown when he found Hakeem Nicks for a 9-yard scoring strike with 3:26 remaining. And they got the ball back 28 seconds later after Denver went three-and-out. Indy’s last drive stalled at midfield when rookie Bradley Roby broke up a fourth-and-6 pass to Reggie Wayne. “We said we’ve got to make a play to win the game,” Roby said. “We can’t rely on the

offense. It’s on us.” Thomas’ trio of touchdown grabs tied a franchise record for most in a game. Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe did it three times. Thomas hauled in a 3-yard touchdown toss with Jerrell Freeman draped on him. Then, he weaved his way for a 35-yard score with D’Quell Jackson in pursuit. Finally, he beat finally beat LaRon Landry on the line for a 5-yarder. “I feel like it’s my responsibility to make big plays when my team needs it,” Thomas said. “Something I pride myself on is being ready for man coverage. It’s like backyard football with your little brother or cousins. I don’t believe you should be covered 1-on-1.” Early in the fourth quarter, the Colts had three defenders

focused on Thomas when running back Montee Ball bulled his way in from 3 yards out to make it 31-10. Luck found Dwayne Allen down the Broncos sideline for a 41-yard scoring completion and Indy needed five plays and 49 seconds to cover 45 yards and made it a one-score game. Denver’s defense came up with two big stops deep in its territory during a third quarter dominated by Indy. On fourth down at the 1, linebacker Brandon Marshall, making his first career start, stuffed Luck’s run up the middle. Later, when the Colts had a first down inside the 5, the Broncos held them to Adam Vinatieri’s 25-yard field goal following Ware’s third-down sack. Last year, Manning let both

his emotions and the Colts get the best of him in a 39-33 loss at Lucas Oil Stadium, the house he helped build. This time, he didn’t have to worry a homecoming in Indiana or Colts owner Jim Irsay getting inside his head with comments about winning only one Super Bowl together. Irsay is serving a six-game suspension for violating the league’s personal conduct policy. And the five-time MVP didn’t have to worry about suspended pass-rusher Robert Mathis, who hounded him last year with two of the season-high four sacks Manning endured. Manning was sacked once on this night. But he was victimized by more than a-half dozen drops, finishing 22 of 36 for 269 yards with no interceptions.

Cowboys: Romo made ‘poor decisions’ Continued from Page B-1 spine. When it comes to 49er players, that’s where they excel.” For one game, it didn’t matter that linebacker Aldon Smith will miss the first nine games on a suspension over off-the-field issues and fellow linebacker NaVorro Bowman is out until midseason because of a knee injury. After Culliver picked up a loose ball stripped from DeMarco Murray and ran untouched for a score, safety Eric Reid returned Romo’s first interception 48 yards to the Dallas 2, setting up Kaepernick’s second scoring toss to Davis. “Our front seven did a good job getting pressure on the quarterback, and the secondary played well,” Reid said. Romo looked like a quarterback who was limited in the offseason and training camp, not a good start for a team trying to avoid tying a franchise record with a fifth straight year of missing the playoffs. He didn’t see Reid on a throw to Dez Bryant, then didn’t see wide-open receiver Dwayne Harris for what would have been

an easy touchdown. Instead he forced a pass to Jason Witten that was intercepted by Patrick Willis in the end zone. The picks kept coming even after starting San Francisco cornerbacks Tramaine Brock (toe) and Culliver (concussion) had been knocked out of the game. Backup Perrish Cox had his second career interception when Romo threw deep to Bryant in double coverage. “I felt comfortable,” said Romo, who threw for 281 yards and a late touchdown. “Just couple poor decisions that I made tonight.” It didn’t take Kaepernick long to put that rough preseason behind him, leading the 49ers 80 yards in just three plays on their first possession. He stepped out of an ankle tackle by Jeremy Mincey and threw 29 yards on the run to Davis, who juggled the ball as the crossed the goal line before holding on for a 14-3 lead. The 49ers also had an efficient drive in their 2-minute offense to finish the first half, with Kaepernick throwing for 39 yards leading to Carlos Hyde’s 4-yard scor-

ing run for a 28-3 halftime lead. “Everyone was ready to get to the season, ready to play and ready to start putting these wins together,” said Kaepernick, who was 16 of 23 for 201 yards without an interception. When Romo wasn’t throwing interceptions, the Dallas offense was getting falsestart penalties and using timeouts to avoid delay-of-game penalties. Part of the problem was the noise from large swaths of red-clad 49ers fans seeing their team for the first time in the regular season in the $1.2 billion home of the Cowboys. “I noticed that,” Harbaugh said of the crowd. “Much appreciated. Means a lot.” Murray bounced back from the fumble on his first carry of the season to get 71 yards in the first quarter and 118 with a touchdown for the game. But he didn’t get the ball on secondand-1 from the San Francisco 2 with a chance to tie the score early. Instead, Romo was sacked and Dallas settled for a field goal.

Lobos: Jones now No. 2 on depth chart Continued from Page B-1 a touchdown, completing 7 of 11 throws while rushing for 32 yards. His ability to pass is what makes him a true dual-threat in the Lobos’ triple option attack. It’s something not even Gautsche has done well. For now, Jones is still the backup, but his promotion to No. 2 on the depth chart behind Gautsche and ahead of Mitchem means he’ll likely see plenty of action in practice and, later, in games. “I saw a little playmaker ability,” said UNM head coach Bob Davie. “A little pointguard mentality, he makes things happen.

He’s a confident football player. I think he’s got a chance to be a good player for us. We did put the ball on the floor three times though. But I saw a bright future from him.” With Gautsche still nursing a bad hamstring suffered in the season opener against UTEP, Jordan will assume the role as No. 1 in practice until his return. That translates to invaluable quality time with the first string over the next two weeks as the Lobos prepare for their next game, Sept. 20 at New Mexico State. MEN’S SOCCER In the final game of the Grange and Ashwill Memorial Tournament at the UNM Soc-

cer Stadium, the sixth-ranked Lobo men’s soccer team dropped a 2-1 decision to topranked UCLA on Sunday night. The Bruins (3-1) broke a 1-1 tie in the 74th minute when Christian Chavez took advantage of a misplayed ball by UNM keeper Jason Beaulieu. Chavez scooped up a loose ball at the top of the box and scored an unassisted goal into an open net for the game-winner. UCLA’s other goal came on a penalty kick in the seventh minute. The Lobos tied it when James Rogers took a cross from Josh Goss and drove home a point-blank one-timer for UNM’s only goal of the night.

Joan Rivers remembered at star-studded funeral in New York Howard Stern delivered the eulogy, Broadway singer-actress Audra McDonald sang “Smile” and bagpipers played “New York, New York” at Joan Rivers’ funeral Sunday, a star-studded sendoff that — like the late comedian herself — brought together the worlds of Hollywood, theater, fashion and media. At a funeral befitting a superstar, the New York City Gay Men’s Chorus sang Broadway hits including “Hey Big Spender” before six-time Tony Award-winner McDonald sang her tribute to Rivers, a champion of theater for decades. Tributes and reminiscences were delivered by TV anchor Deborah Norville, close friend Margie Stern, columnist Cindy Adams and Rivers’ daughter, Melissa, who spoke about how she respected her mother, who died Thursday at 81, Joan Rivers and appreciated everyone’s support. Hugh Jackman sang “Quiet Please, There’s a Lady On Stage,” and bagpipers from the New York City Police Department played on the streets as mourners filed out of Temple Emanu-El, many dabbing their eyes. “She would love this. We’ve all said this so many times: The one person who would really think this is the greatest thing ever is the lady who it’s all about, and she’s not here,” said Norville afterward, amid the throngs of well-wishers and sound of bagpipes. A legion of notables turned out to remember Rivers: comedians Kathy Griffin, Rosie O’Donnell and Whoopi Goldberg; E! network Fashion Police colleague and friend Kelly Osbourne; Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick; and celebrity doctor Mehmet Oz. Fashion designers Carolina Herrera, Dennis Basso and Michael Kors were in attendance. “It was uplifting. We were celebrating her life,” Basso said. The Associated Press

BASEBALL

NEW YORK — Yordano Ventura and the Kansas City Royals turned Derek Jeter Day into another Royals 2 disappointing defeat for the Yankees 0 New York Yankees’ captain in the dwindling days of his career. Ventura pitched three-hit ball into the seventh inning, and the AL Central leaders beat the Yankees 2-0 Sunday on a pair of unearned runs for their second shutout in the three-game series. Kansas City scored due to errors by pitcher Shane Greene (4-3) in the second inning and right fielder Carlos Beltran in the third. The Royals, who won 1-0 Friday night on an unearned run following an error by third baseman Chase Headley, went 4-3 against the Yankees this year to take the season series for the first time since 1999. Jeter, who is retiring at the end of the season, went 1 for 3 with a first-inning single and a third-inning walk. Before the game, he was honored during a 45-minute ceremony on the field that included NBA great Michael Jordan and baseball ironman Cal Ripken Jr. ANGELS 14, TWINS 4 In Minneapolis, Mike Trout hit his 32nd homer, C.J. Wilson recovered from a slow start and Los Angeles completed a season sweep of Minnesota. Howie Kendrick, who had three hits and four RBIs, and C.J. Cron also homered for Los Angeles. The AL West leaders had a season-high 19 hits and completed their fifth four-game sweep this season, extending a franchise record. They finished 7-0 against the Twins. Wilson (11-9) walked three straight batters to start the second. All three came around to score, giving Minnesota a 3-1 lead, but the left-hander retired 13 of his next 14 hitters. BLUE JAYS 3, RED SOX 1 In Boston, Jose Bautista hit a three-run homer and R.A. Dickey pitched into the eighth inning, carrying Toronto to the victory. Adam Lind added three hits for the Blue Jays, who dropped the first two games of the series after five consecutive wins. The Blue Jays moved within five games of Seattle for the AL’s second wild card. Xander Bogaerts had an RBI single for the Red Sox. ASTROS 4, ATHLETICS 3 In Oakland, Calif., the Astros scored two runs in the ninth without a hit, including Dexter Fowler’s bases-loaded walk for the tiebreaking run. Jose Veras (4-0) pitched 1⅔ scoreless innings as the Astros (63-80) took the rubber game of the weekend series. The victory means Houston’s streak of 100-loss seasons ends at three. Nate Freiman hit a two-run homer in the seventh to give the A’s a 3-2 lead. Oakland went on to load the bases but Veras wiggled out of the jam. INDIANS 2, WHITE SOX 0 In Cleveland, Carlos Carrasco came within one out of his first complete game, and the Indians finished a threegame sweep of Chicago. Carrasco (7-4) allowed four hits, struck out eight and didn’t walk a batter in 8⅔ innings, extending his remarkable turnaround since rejoining the rotation last month. Cody Allen entered with two on and retired Conor Gillaspie for his 19th save. ORIOLES 7, RAYS 5 (11 INNINGS) In St. Petersburg, Fla., Nelson Cruz hit his second homer of the game in the 11th inning and drove in seven runs, and AL East-leading Baltimore avoided a three-game sweep. After Nick Hundley drew a one-walk in the 11th, Cruz drove the next pitch from Cesar Ramos (2-6) over the wall in center for his 39th homer. Cruz has 101 RBIs this season. NATIONAL LEAGUE DODGERS 7, DIAMONDBACKS 2 In Los Angeles, Adrian Gonzalez hit a pair of three-run

homers to reach 100 RBIs for the seventh time, and the Dodgers beat Arizona after Trevor Cahill held them hitless for more than five innings. Zack Greinke (14-8) gave up two runs and six hits before he was lifted for a pinch-hitter during the Dodgers’ three-run sixth. The 2009 AL Cy Young Award winner is 5-0 with a 1.59 ERA in his last six starts against the Diamondbacks. MARLINS 4, BRAVES 0 In Miami, Brad Hand pitched six sharp innings and Jarrod Saltalamacchia drove in two runs to lead the Marlins over Atlanta. Hand (3-6) gave up five hits and struck out three. Donovan Solano and Marcell Ozuna each drove in a run for the Marlins, who won two of three in the series. RANGERS 1, MARINERS 0 In Arlington, Texas, Derek Holland pitched seven impressive innings in his second start off the disabled list, and the Rangers beat Seattle to snap an eight-game losing streak. The Rangers gave interim manager Tim Bogar his first victory in his third game since Ron Washington resigned. Seattle, which had won five in a row, finished a 5-2 road trip. PIRATES 10, CUBS 4 In Chicago, Andrew McCutchen hit one of Pittsburgh’s four homers, and the Pirates moved into the second NL wild-card slot. The Pirates swept the threegame series against the lastplace Cubs to improve to 12-4 against Chicago this season, including 7-2 at Wrigley Field. Coupled with Milwaukee’s 9-1 loss to St. Louis, they moved a half-game ahead of the Brewers for the last wild card. CARDINALS 9, BREWERS 1 In Milwaukee, Adam Wainwright pitched a seven-hitter for St. Louis, and Peter Boujos had a key two-run triple. The Cardinals took three of four in the series at Miller Park to open a five-game lead on Milwaukee. The Brewers have lost 11 of 12. St. Louis grabbed a 4-0 lead with four runs in the fourth against rookie Jimmy Nelson (2-7). NATIONALS 3, PHILLIES 2 In Washington, Adam LaRoche homered twice, and the Nationals avoided a series sweep. Scott Hairston hit a goahead sacrifice fly off Philadelphia ace Cole Hamels (8-7) in the sixth inning. Hairston started in place of Bryce Harper because of his stellar numbers against the lefthander, who combined with three relievers for a no-hitter against Atlanta in his previous start. METS 4, REDS 3 In Cincinnati, Curtis Granderson and Anthony Recker homered, and the Mets scored four unearned runs. Zach Wheeler (10-9) pitched six solid innings, improving to 7-1 with a 2.21 ERA over his last 13 starts. The right-hander allowed one run and five hits. ROCKIES 6, PADRES 0 In Denver, Nolan Arenado homered and Franklin Morales pitched six spotless innings for his first win in two months as Colorado defeated San Diego. Jackson Williams hit his first major league home run for the Rockies, who swept a three-game series for the first time since June 13-15 in San Francisco. Colorado has won four straight, its longest streak since winning five in a row against Atlanta and the Giants in June. It was the Rockies’ first three-game sweep at home this season. INTERLEAGUE TIGERS 6, GIANTS 1 In Detroit, rookie Kyle Lobstein earned his first major league win, and Miguel Cabrera homered for the third time in two days in the Tigers’ victory over San Francisco. The Tigers beat the Giants for just the second time in 10 games, including San Francisco’s sweep of Detroit in the 2012 World Series. Torii Hunter, getting a rare chance to face a starting pitcher older than he is, had three hits against Tim Hudson (9-10).

Study: Genetic quirk gave coffee its buzz By Seth Borenstein The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Scientists have woken up and smelled the coffee — and analyzed its DNA. They found that what we love about coffee — the caffeine — is a genetic quirk, not related to the caffeine in chocolate or tea. “It’s an accident that has been frozen in place very likely by the influence of natural selection,” says University of Buffalo evolutionary biologist Victor Albert. He and more than 60 other researchers from around the world mapped out the genetic instruction

book of java. Their results were published Thursday in the journal Science. Albert says researchers discovered that caffeine developed separately in the coffee, tea and chocolate because it is in different genes in different areas of plants’ genomes. But once coffee mutated to have caffeine — not just in the bean, there’s even more in the leaves — it turned out to be a good thing for the plant, Albert says. Bugs don’t chew on the coffee plant leaves because they don’t like the caffeine, but pollinators like bees do. “So pollinators come back for more — just like we do for our cups of coffee,” Albert says, admitting he also likes the buzz.

“It wakes me up every morning,” Albert says. “I wouldn’t be able to do all this fabulous work on coffee if it weren’t for the coffee itself.” University of North Carolina plant genomics professor Jeff Dangl, who wasn’t part of the study, notes “natural selection to help coffee plants deter insects turned out so well for us.” But he adds, “Unfortunately, coffee is now under epidemic attack by pathogens that are not deterred by caffeine, and we need all the clever genetics and genomics to save it.” The research will be presented this week at the 25th International Conference on Coffee Science in Colombia.

Mystery

solved

For years, scientists have theorized about how large rocks — some weighing hundreds of pounds — zigzag across Racetrack Playa in Death Valley, Calif. Now researchers say they’ve solved the mystery: The stones are pushed by wind-driven ice that forms and then breaks up under certain conditions. NATIONAL PARK SERVICE/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Scientists discover icy answer to riddle of moving stones By Henry Fountain The New York Times

R

esearchers have solved a longstanding mystery that has befuddled scientists and tourists alike: why rocks on a dry lake bed in Death Valley National Park in California occasionally move. The explanation for the phenomenon at Racetrack Playa — named for the long trails that the rocks, some of which weigh hundreds of pounds, leave in the mud — is that the stones are pushed by wind-driven ice that forms and then breaks up under certain conditions. “It’s a very rare phenomenon,” said Richard D. Norris, a paleobiologist at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and lead author of a paper describing it in PLoS ONE. “A brief moment in time.” Norris and James M. Norris, a cousin and coauthor, actually saw the rocks moving in December when they went to check on the project. “It was complete dumb luck,” Richard Norris said. “Almost every rock on the playa moved.” Scientists have offered theories about these “sailing stones” since at least the 1940s. Many thought that wind or ice played a role but not in the ways that the Norrises and colleagues uncovered. For their study they embedded special global positioning system devices, designed by James Norris, in rocks of various sizes brought from outside the park, as the park service did not allow them to disturb the existing playa stones. The playa, about 3 square miles and pancake flat, is normally dry, although occasionally rainwater runoff from the surrounding mountains fills part of it to a depth of a few inches. It’s when this shallow pond forms, and the nights are below freezing and the days are sunny and warm, that the rocks may move, the researchers said. On those occasions, the cold night air leaves

a sheet of ice barely an eighth of an inch thick. Then the warmth of the sun causes the sheet to break up. “One moment it’s quiet and still,” Richard Norris said. “The next it’s crackle, crackle, pop, pop, pop.” As more ice melts, some of these lesser sheets have room to move. Driven by light breezes, the sheets push up against rocks and nudge them. The wind drives the water, too, which also helps push the ice against the rocks. The movement is slow, no more than about 15 feet per minute. “The rocks are creeping along,” Richard Norris said, “like a baby on its stomach.” The researchers have not calculated the forces involved — that is grist for a future study, they said — but clearly they are enough to move the rocks, aided by the reduced friction that comes from their sitting in the shallow water. The movements are episodic — the conditions may be just right for a few minutes, and then the sun causes more ice to break and the movement stops. And once the water evaporates completely, it may be years before the rocks move again, even if the playa refloods, because the precise temperature and wind conditions may not occur. “What you see 99 percent of the time you’re out there are these fossilized trails,” Richard Norris said. “Everything has just stopped and gone into hibernation.” The discovery also explains why many of the trails are parallel to one another. The researchers found that the moving ice sheets were sometimes so big that they would nudge rocks hundreds of feet apart, moving them in the same direction. Based on existing theories, the cousins had thought that winds as high as 80 or 90 mph might have moved the stones. So early in the two-year study, they discussed buying a sturdy all-season tent for their site visits. They were completely surprised then to see the rocks moving on a sunny day in a light breeze. “We didn’t need the tent,” Richard Norris said.

Diet preferences set in infancy, research suggests By Catherine Saint Louis The New York Times

Efforts to improve what children eat should begin before they even learn to walk, a series of nutritional studies published last week has found. Taken together, the data indicate that infant feeding patterns persist far longer than has been appreciated. “Our early taste preferences, particularly for fruits and vegetables, and on the flip side for sugary beverages, are lasting,” said Dr. Elsie M. Taveras, chief of the division of general pediatrics at MassGeneral Hospital for Children in Boston, who was not involved in the new research. “These studies are suggesting that in terms of diet quality, the die might be cast in the first year,” she added. The package of 11 studies was published in the journal Pediatrics and was funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration, among others. Investigators tracked the diets of roughly 1,500 6-year-olds, comparing their eating patterns to those observed in a study that followed them until age 1. Previous research has shown that taste preferences are developed in infancy. Yet until now it was unclear how infant diets bear on what children prefer to consume years later, once in school. As it turns out, “when infants had infrequent consumption of fruits and vegetables, they also had infrequent consumption at 6,” said Kelley Scanlon, an epidemiologist at the CDC and the senior author of a few of the new studies. Scanlon and her colleagues suggested that it is best to interest children in fruits and vegetables by late infancy — roughly between 10 and 12 months old. Their analysis took into account factors that could skew results, like race, family income and breastfeeding. Other factors may play a role in establishing a child’s diet patterns, such as whether a child fears trying new foods, said Catherine A. Forestell, an associate professor of psychology at the College of William and Mary, who researches eating habits from infancy to adulthood. Still, Scanlon’s finding emphasizes the importance of exposing infants to a variety of fruits and vegetables as they make the transition to table food. “I do believe in the importance of the early experience,” said Forestell, adding that it is crucial for parents “not to be deterred by an initial negative response.” In a 2007 study by Forestell, infants who were offered green beans for the first time squinted and wrinkled their noses. But these young critics willingly opened their mouths to try another spoonful if parents persisted, she said. Another study in the new series found that babies who consumed any amount of sugar-sweetened beverages were two times more likely to drink them at least once daily at age 6. A third study found that infants ages 10 to 12 months who were given sugarsweetened beverages more than three times a week were twice as likely to be obese at age 6 than those who consumed none as infants. It is not clear what impact breast-feeding might have on a child’s later diet. A mother’s eating habits are reflected in the taste of her breast milk, providing a “flavor bridge” that eases her baby’s transition to the foods she ate regularly while nursing. Breast-fed infants are more accepting of new foods than babies who drank the same-tasting formula day after day, research has shown. A CDC study in the new series found that children who were breast-fed were more likely to consume water (versus sugarsweetened beverages), fruits and vegetables at age 6. Cria Perrine, an epidemiologist at the CDC, and her co-authors concluded one additional perk of breastfeeding may be an “improved child diet.” Recent research that took into account economic and cultural variables has thrown into question whether breast-feeding protects against obesity into the preteen years, Taveras said. But a strong relationship between breast-feeding and protection against obesity up to age 3 has been documented. Perrine’s study suggests one way breast-feeding might protect against early obesity, Taveras said. Some experts argue that parents lack consistent guidance on how to interest infants in unfamiliar, often bitter vegetables. The task is made tougher by the fact that infants do not need repeat exposures to become enamored of sweet and salty foods. “We don’t do a very good job of teaching parents about good nutrition in infancy,” said Deanna Hoelscher, director of a center for healthy living at the University of Texas School of Public Health in Houston. In March, a research review published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition called for separate dietary guidelines for infants and toddlers. Currently, the Dietary Guidelines for Americans makes recommendations only for ages 2 and older. It may not be obvious to parents, for example, that noncarbonated drinks with added sugar, like cranberry juice cocktail, should be avoided in the first year. Dr. Sohyun Park, a CDC epidemiologist and the lead author of a study in the journal, noted that 27 percent of the infants studied had been fed sugarsweetened beverages. Indeed, nearly 9 percent were fed them before 6 months of age. Yet the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends only breast milk for the first six months or, alternatively, formula.

Thyroid, kidney cancers rise among children, but still rare By Lindsey Tanner The Associated Press

CHICAGO — Children’s kidney and thyroid cancers have increased in recent years, and though the diseases are rare, experts wonder if the rising rates could be related to obesity. The rate for all childhood cancers combined, 171 cases per million chil-

dren, remained stable from 2000 to 2009 although slight increases were seen in blacks and adolescents, according to a report from researchers at the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. During the years studied, there were about 120,000 new cancer diagnoses among infants and children age 1 through 19.

Section editor: Bruce Krasnow, 986-3034, brucek@sfnewmexican.com Design and headlines: Kristina Dunham, kdunham@sfnewmexican.com

Mostly stable rates of leukemia and brain tumors, among the more common types of childhood cancer, contributed to the overall trend. For thyroid cancer, the diagnosis total was almost 5,000 cases, and the rate climbed from nearly six cases per million children to eight per million children in 2009. For kidney cancer, the total was

426 and the rate climbed from 0.5 cases per million to 0.7 cases per million. Studies showing increases in both kinds of cancer in adults have suggested causes might include rising obesity rates. Childhood obesity also has increased in recent years and whether that has contributed to the rising cancer rates needs to be determined, the authors of the study said.

Today in history Today is Monday, September 8, the 251st day of 2014. There are 114 days left in the year. Today’s highlight in history: On September 8, 1974, President Gerald R. Ford granted a “full, free, and absolute pardon” to former President Richard Nixon “for all offenses against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 20, 1969 through August 9, 1974.”

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Creativity seems to emanate from you. You have the ability to explain how to turn a seemingly impossible idea into a reality. Tonight: Act as if you don’t have a care in the world. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH Take charge of a situation by getting down to the basics. Pressure is likely to build as the day goes on. Tonight: Juggle many different concerns.

Tonight: Howl at the Full Moon. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Use caution with financial agreements and involvements. A deal that seems too good to be true probably is.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Man won’t help wife’s depression Dear Annie: My daughter, “Nina,” suffers from depression. Recently, I went to Seattle to help Nina and her husband move to Texas. It was our family’s hope that I could get her to come back east with me to get her mental health issues straightened out. Nina was diagnosed with depression when she was in high school. When she is on adequate amounts of an antidepressant, she is a vibrant, intelligent, caring “normal” person. Lately, it has become obvious to us and also to her friends that she is depressed again. But our son-in-law insists that her depression is situational and will clear up on its own. We worry that Nina’s depression is not being treated and believe this is emotional abuse. Her husband has threatened that if she stays with us, he will divorce her. We are trying to keep in contact, but Nina’s husband won’t allow her to travel by herself, and he certainly has no interest in spending family holidays with us after that last visit. What can we do? My son thinks we may never see Nina again. — Concerned Mom Dear Mom: Your son-in-law has it exactly backward. Those who commit to an effective program of antidepressants are trying very hard to take “adult responsibility” for their behavior. Unfortunately, without Nina’s cooperation, there is little you can do. It’s also possible that your sonin-law truly believes the move was the main contributing factor to Nina’s depression, and he may change his tune if the depression doesn’t lift. Don’t let your son-inlaw dictate how often you stay in touch with Nina. Your calls and visits are important. Meanwhile, please contact NAMI (nami.org) at 800-950-NAMI and ask about their Family-to-Family program. Dear Annie: I have recently attended a number of excessively long weddings. They begin with the ceremony, followed by an extended cocktail hour while the

bridal party takes pictures, followed by dinner and then dancing. I try to be patient, but by the end of the evening, I’m usually frustrated by what feels like indifference to the guests’ enjoyment. Are there rules that wedding planners could use when arranging the festivities? — Jay Dear Jay: Wedding planners can only advise the bride and groom, and the best ones will keep the couple apprised of the timing. Couples who take photographs before the ceremony begins can shave an hour or more off the time, but some traditions keep couples from seeing each other until they walk down the aisle. The bottom line is, the couple may want the festivities to last through the night, but you are not obligated to stay any longer than you are comfortable doing. If that means you leave before dinner is served, so be it. Dear Annie: I have yet one more perspective on why someone might let oneself be fat. I have long realized that not only did I not want to be ogled by men, but I was also trying to increase my substance in the world. Always feeling small and insignificant, I felt I needed to “have some weight to throw around.” I was never abused, but I always felt shy, passed over and unimportant. I wanted to feel “bigger.” I couldn’t get taller, so I increased my body size. I felt better as I got bigger. I liked it. But I do realize that I should go to therapy to find another way to achieve those feelings. — Big Girl Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
