NFL Week 17: Idaho ties

Jared Allen gave the Minnesota Vikings a show in an otherwise-meaningless game at the end of a forgettable season.

The former Idaho State player finished just short of the all-time NFL single-season sack record.

?It?s like being runner-up at the prom. The crown just doesn?t weigh as much,? Allen said with a big smile.

He had 3.5 sacks in Sunday?s game and finished the season with 22 sacks, behind Michael Strahan?s 2001 mark of 22.5 for the New York Giants. Allen had 20 minutes of game time left to get the record, but the Bears started running the ball more and giving left tackle J?Marcus Webb plenty of help down the stretch.

Allen tied Mark Gastineau of the Jets in 1984 for the second-highest total in history and bested Chris Doleman?s franchise record of 21 in 1989. ?

You wish McCown would have pulled a Brett Favre and rolled around a little bit,? joked linebacker Chad Greenway.

Favre went down rather easy in 2001 when Strahan chased him down to set the record. Allen also had five tackles (three solo).

? Lions WR Titus Young (Boise State) had four catches for 24 yards and two TDs.

? Cardinals guard Daryn Colledge (Boise State) had one solo tackle.

? Rams safety Quintin Mikell (Boise State) had seven tackles (six solo).

? Jets punter T.J. Conley (Idaho) had five punts, 191 yards (38.2 average).

? Bears safety Winston Venable (Boise State) had one solo tackle.

? Cowboys CB Orlando Scandrick (Boise State) had four tackles (three solo).

Sunday Photoblogging: A Year in Animal Photos

It?s really hard to come up with a list of what I consider to be my best photos from the previous year. To start with, some of my favorites photos are perhaps not strictly the ?best,? and some of the best photos may not really move me much. To narrow it down, at least partially, I?ve decided to pick out ten photos from the past year that I particularly like, that I think are particularly well-composed, and that feature various critters as the main subject, not including members of the genus Homo.

Here they are, in chronological order of when they were taken.

Domestic dog, Canis familiaris (Huskie). Sherman Oaks, CA.

Bonobo (Pan paniscus). San Diego Zoo.

Allen's swamp monkeys. San Diego Zoo.

Red-Eared Slider (Trachemys scripta elegans) / UCLA Botanical Garden

Squirrel / UCLA Botanical Gardens

Seals on "Childrens' Beach", San Diego

Golden-bellied mangabey (Cercocebus chrysogaster). San Diego Zoo.

Giant Panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca). San Diego Zoo.

Southwest African Meerkat (Suricata suricatta hahni). San Diego Zoo.

Domestic dog, canis familiaris (Border terrier). Los Angeles, CA.

As always, you can find all of my photos on Google+ (they are publicly visible, which means you can see them even if you do not have a Google+ account).

New Earth-like planets: How did astronomers find them?

NASA's Kepler?spacecraft?has spotted a pair of rocky Earth-sized planets orbiting a distant star. How do you find a new planet??

Since 2009, NASA's Kepler spacecraft has been sitting in space, pointing its telescope at a patch of the sky near the constellations Cygnus and Lyrae. Its field of view, a region of the Milky Way galaxy about the size of two open hands raised to the cosmos, contains roughly 160,000 stars. Scientists on the Kepler team are interested not in these stars themselves, but in the planets that may orbit them.

Skip to next paragraph

"The goal of the Kepler mission is to find planets like Earth in the habitable zones of their parent stars," said Guillermo Torres, a member of the Kepler team based at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. They are looking for?Earth twins, because these are the likeliest candidates for worlds that could host extraterrestrial life.

To find these alien Earths, the Kepler team uses a technique called the "transit method." They scour the data collected by the Kepler telescope looking for slight drops in the intensity of light coming from any of the stars in its line of sight. About 90 percent of the time, these dips in brightness signify that a planet "has passed in front of its star, essentially?eclipsing the light," Torres told Life's Little Mysteries.

Planets the size of Earth passing in front of a star typically cause it to dim by only one-hundredth of a percent ? akin to the drop in brightness of a car's headlight when a fly crosses in front of it, the scientists say. To detect these faint and faraway eclipses, the Kepler telescope must be extremely sensitive and it must be stationed in space, away from the glare and turbulence of Earth's atmosphere.

Using the transit method, Kepler has detected 2,326 "candidate planets" so far, Torres said. Those are dips detected in starlight that are probably caused by passing planets, but for which other alternative explanations haven't yet been ruled out.? [Could There Be Life on the New Earth-Size Planets?]

"The signals are an indication that something is crossing in front of the star and then you have to confirm it's a planet, not something else," he said. "Roughly 90 percent of the signals that Kepler detects are true planets. The other 10 percent of the cases are false positives. We're not happy with leaving the probability at 90 percent ? we've set a higher bar ? so, even though a priori we know a signal is 90-percent sure [to be a planet], we do more work."

To confirm that a candidate is a true?exoplanet?? a planet outside our solar system ? the Kepler scientists use the world's largest ground-based telescopes to study the star in question, looking for alternative explanations for the transit signal. "One example is an eclipsing binary in the background of the star. There could be two stars behind the star [of interest] that are orbiting each other and eclipsing each other, but because they're in the background they're much fainter. So their light is diluted by the brighter star," he said.

With today's (Dec. 20) announcement of?five new confirmed exoplanets?orbiting a star called Kepler-20 located 950 light-years away, including two that are Earth-size, the number of confirmed exoplanets has moved up to 33.

2011 Reflections: the end of a landmark year for Latin America

Seven Monitor correspondents reflect on the world's hot spots. In this installment, Sara Miller Llana says Latin America has economically boomed this year as the US and Europe struggle.

As 2011 comes to a close, Latin America's future looks bright, with poverty at its lowest level in 20 years ? 31.4 percent ? and economies growing, thanks to earlier market-oriented reforms, the high prices of commodities, and new trading partners, especially China.

Skip to next paragraph

In the ultimate role reversal, as Europe and the United States struggle, Latin America has shined.

Even Cuba made major economic progress, albeit out of necessity, granting more licenses for entrepreneurs and allowing for the sale of real estate and cars. But shadows of the past have clouded the region as well, especially in elections.

In Central America, two cold-war-era figures won presidencies, with retired Army Gen. Otto Perez Molina winning Guatemala's runoff, and Sandinista Daniel Ortega winning another term in Nicaragua (unconstitutionally, many argue). Mr. Perez Molina is accused of human rights abuses during the civil war; Mr. Ortega was a US foe as president in the 1980s after Nicaragua's revolution.

And then there is growing discontent with dynastic influences.

In Peru, Keiko Fujimori, daughter of disgraced former dictator Alberto Fujimori, made it to the runoff in June (she lost to Ollanta Humala).

In Argentina, Cristina Fern?ndez de Kirchner easily won reelection in October, boosted by a solid economy. But by the time she steps down, her family will have ruled for 12 years. That's too long for those who seek more dynamic democracy, replete with a robust opposition.

That is the case in Venezuela, too, where opponents are trying to edge out President Hugo Ch?vez, who announced this year that he was ill. He has been in office since 1999 and will face probably his fiercest test in 2012, as the opposition seeks to capitalize on high crime rates and inflation.

In Mexico, the 2012 presidential campaign is heating up. The Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI), which presided over 71 years of authoritarian rule before being defeated in 2000, has emerged as the front-runner ? in part because of public weariness over President Felipe Calder?n's strategy against organized crime, which has caused homicides to soar past 40,000 in five years.

There are other hints of the past. Honduras is still reeling from its 2009 coup. The head of Colombia's FARC rebel group was killed in November, but the group still terrorizes. And former dictator Manuel Noriega is back in Panama, where he went straight to prison, having spent 20 years in French and US prisons.

But most of these events are overshadowed by the positive economic news. The year 2011 may be seen as the starting point of a new era for Latin America.
