High-Profile Donors and Partners Help Set the Stage to Do the Most Good in 2014
Alexandria, VA (February 12, 2014) – This year's Red Kettle Campaign collected almost $136 million thanks to the support of donors and corporate partners across the country. The money, raised between November 28 and December 24, will help The Salvation Army provide food, shelter and social services to those in need throughout the year, not just during Christmas.
"The Salvation Army is humbled by the support from millions of Americans who put money in our kettles every year," said Major Ron Busroe, community relations and development secretary for The Salvation Army's National Headquarters. "The Red Kettle Campaign is a crucial fundraising period for us, and the support we received will help us continue to provide services to more than 30 million people each year."
The Salvation Army enjoyed a jam-packed holiday season with events and initiatives new and old. Starting from the top:
Multiplatinum recording artist Selena Gomez kicked off the Red Kettle Campaign with a live performance during halftime of the Dallas Cowboys-Oakland Raiders Thanksgiving Day game. This marked the 17th year that the Cowboys kicked off the iconic Red Kettle Campaign with The Salvation Army. The day before her performance, Selena "hung out" with eight of the top fundraisers for her Online Red Kettle team via Google Hangouts, a video conferencing platform.
Rising pop star Austin Mahone headlined the fourth annual Rock the Red Kettle Concert, which also featured performances by Emblem3, Coco Jones and Bean – and a special appearance by Kelly Rowland. Three members of Austin Mahone's Online Red Kettle team won the chance to fly to Los Angeles and meet Austin Mahone in person, and eight additional fans chatted with Austin virtually via Google Hangouts.
On December 2, in celebration of Giving Tuesday, Hanes and The Salvation Army teamed up again to provide food and socks to those in need in New York City. This year Hanes donated 250,000 socks to charitable organizations including The Salvation Army, bringing the total of socks donated over the past five years to 2.7 million.
On #GivingTuesday, December 3, The Salvation Army was seen and talked about during national media appearances on the TODAY show (in the first hour and fourth hour with Kathie Lee and Hoda), Access Hollywood, Access Hollywood Live and Steve Harvey. Also on #GivingTuesday, The Salvation Army kicked off the third annual World Record Bell Ringing Contest. Six participants followed a set of strict rules to see if they could break last year's record of 80 consecutive hours of bell ringing. The participants didn't just break the record; they smashed it! Major Butch Soriano, Captain Jim Brickson and Andre Thompson all reached the 105-hour mark before deciding to lay down their bells.
Online bell ringers continued to impact the campaign results by hosting a virtual kettle via onlineredkettle.org, This year, Online Red Kettle donations were up, totaling nearly $2.4 million compared to $2.1 million in 2012. Donations through salvationarmyusa.org totaled $21.6 million, with $3.2 million donated on the last day of the year.
Red Kettles outside of Walmart and Sam's Club locations across the U.S. collected $33.2 million and $4.1 million, respectively, which contributed 27 percent of the $135.9 million total. More than 2,100 Kroger stores hosted Red Kettles, raising a total of $13.2 million, or 9 percent of the $135.9 total. Roughly 700 JCPenney stores collected a total of $2.7 million for the campaign, and 690 Big Lots locations raised $1.3 million.
From November 29 through December 15, thousands of Walmart stores hosted the second annual Fill the Truck event. Fill the Truck collected more than 136,000 toys and 6,600 coats for children. Walmart also generously donated $1 million to the Red Kettle Campaign.
On January 2, The Salvation Army rang the closing bell at the New York Stock Exchange, signifying the end of a great Red Kettle Campaign and the start to a new year of Doing the Most Good.
Every year, The Salvation Army helps nearly 30 million people, roughly one person per second. Donations help provide more than 10 million nights of shelter, roughly 58 million meals, and after-school and substance abuse programs. During the holiday season, nearly 4.2 million people rely on The Salvation Army to provide their families with warm meals on Christmas Day or toys for their children. Through The Salvation Army's Angel Tree program, more than 1 million children receive necessities and toys.
About The Salvation Army
Established in London in 1865, The Salvation Army, an evangelical part of the universal Christian church, has been supporting those in need in His name without discrimination for more than 130 years in the United States. Nearly 30 million Americans receive assistance from The Salvation Army each year through a range of social services: providing food for the hungry, relief for disaster victims, assistance for the disabled, outreach to the elderly and ill, clothing and shelter for the homeless and opportunities for underprivileged children. 82 cents of every dollar The Salvation Army spends is used to support those services in 5,000 communities nationwide.

Annual Report 2005
From Hurricane Repair to a Rare Letter Book
Lindsay Hannah, an architectural conservator in private practice in New Orleans and a former six-year Colonial Williamsburg intern, assesses the condition of a residence in the Second Street Historic District of Gulfport, Mississippi. She was accompanied by Colonial Williamsburg's architectural conservation team. The house, constructed in the early 20th-century, was damaged by Hurricane Katrina.
Research division responsibilities embrace preservation, conservation, collections building, rare books and archives management, editing, training, writing and publishing, website development, and more—all of which were pursued in 2005. Staff helped to reclaim Gulf Coast historic structures from Hurricane Katrina damage, to create programming, to develop Internet offerings, to enhance John D. Rockefeller Jr., Library holdings, and to support exhibitions.
The National Trust for Historic Preservation organized assessment teams for the battered Gulf States. Thomas Taylor, Colonial Williamsburg's director of architectural conservation, led a preservation squad to Mississippi that surveyed historic structures, recommended repairs, and gave property owners practical advice.
The division helped write the Education for Citizenship plan that gives intellectual grounding to the Historic Area's Revolutionary City programming, and assisted in scripting, training, and setting the scene to explore the impact of war on Williamsburg. The new digital history center spearheaded development of the division's website, which offers information on activities, research papers, and other resources.
The John D. Rockefeller Jr., Library's special collections acquired a 1764–1775 Yorktown ledger probably owned by merchant William Nelson; a rare plantation letter and account book, 1735–1774, belonging to Colonel William Fauntleroy of Richmond County, which includes more than 200 letters; and the journals of Lieutenant Blackall William Ball, present at Yorktown's siege. The department supported the "Principles of Freedom" exhibition at the DeWitt Wallace Decorative Arts Museum with a rare William Stone 1823 engraving of the Declaration of Independence and signatures of the signers, all from the Pat and Jerry Epstein American History Document Collection.
A rare 1823 William Stone engraving of the Declaration of Independence was the centerpiece of the "Principles of Freedom" exhibition at the DeWitt Wallace Decorative Arts Museum.

Eat Streat: The best of Rotorua's restaurants
Everything you need to know about Eat Streat - Rotorua's million dollar dining destination.
1 / 3
It all started four years ago with the temporary road closure of the lake end of Tutanekai St where there was a cluster of local eateries and bars in the one location. The road closure was a trial development affectionately known as "Eat Streat" (Get it? Str-eat)
Eat Streat has proved to be a success, enjoyed by both local and international visitors and of course the restaurant owners and therefore it was an easy decision to make the space a permanent fixture.
The $2 million upgrade to Rotorua's "Eat Streat" was completed in March 2014 and features a timber structure which creates a covered central walkway with retractable roofing. The unique geothermal heating underlay also keeps the area warm during winter allowing for all weather, year round, outdoor alfresco dining.

We are developing medicines to selectively eliminate senescent cells, called senolytic medicines. Our initial focus is on delivering localized therapy in osteoarthritis, ophthalmology and pulmonary disease. Beyond cellular senescence, we are uncovering additional underlying mechanisms that contribute to age-related diseases including:
Our lead product candidate, UBX0101, is designed to treat musculoskeletal disease with an initial focus on osteoarthritis. This product candidate is a potent senolytic small molecule inhibitor of the MDM2/p53 protein interaction. Disruption of this protein interaction can trigger the elimination of senescent cells. Our IND application has been cleared by the U.S. FDA, and we plan to initiate a Phase 1 clinical trial in osteoarthritis in the second quarter of 2018.
UBX1967 is our second lead product candidate for the potential treatment of ophthalmologic diseases. UBX1967 is a potent senolytic small molecule inhibitor of specific members of the Bcl-2 family of apoptosis regulatory proteins. Senescent cells utilize pro-survival mechanisms to remain viable and rely on specific Bcl-2 protein family members to persist and accumulate in tissues. We plan to submit our IND application and commence a Phase 1 clinical study in an ophthalmological indication in the second half of 2019.
Up Knitted New Glove Clarks Glitter Ladies Cushion Lace Soft Shoes Summary: This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 1 study is evaluating the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of a single intra-articular injection of UBX0101 into the femoro-tibial joint of patients diagnosed with moderate to severe painful osteoarthritis of the knee.
Status: Recruiting patients
For patients or physicians interested in learning about eligibility criteria for the trial, please visit clincialtrials.gov.

4-7-10 PNC Park
I was expecting a low output today. I wasn't able to get to the park until almost 5, and I also had to leave during batting practice to take care of a prior commitment.
When I arrived, my friend Jim saved me a couple minutes by allowing me to join him and Nick at the front of the line.
As I was showing my season ticket ID to get into batting practice early, I noticed a ball bounce into section 138, the section closest to the bullpen. I ran in and located it, putting me on the board quickly.
Seconds later, the Pirates ran off the field, ending batting practice. They literally ended BP as we were entering the bleachers. Unacceptable.
The Dodgers weren't ready to start yet, so we had to wait for them to throw and stretch their arms out. After about ten minutes of wasted time, the Dodgers started to hit.
I would get my second and third balls with my glove trick. Fellow ballhawk Jim gets an assist on both balls for pointing them out to me, as they were near the bullpen entrance, and I was stationed about three sections away.
Here's the area of detail, snapped after the snags:
I would go on to snag my fourth and final ball of the day off the bat of Russell Martin. He hit a home run off of a bleacher in section 138 that rolled down a few rows to me.
I was hoping that Manny Ramirez would put some balls into the seats, but he didn't. He hit one home run ball, snagged by fellow Ballhawk League member Nick Pelescak.
I had set up a video camera hoping to capture a few home run catches during the Dodgers second round, which included Manny and Matt Kemp.
Unfortunately, all the video captured was standing around,
Game: 4 balls (2 hit, 2 device)
Season: 9 balls (5 hit, 0 thrown, 4 device)
Games: 2 game
Average: 4.50 balls per game
Career: 587 balls
Streak: 98 consecutive games attended with at least 1 ball snagged.
Attendance: 31,061

Spent in 2010: $21.50 ($10 Tickets, $4 Transportation, $2.50 Parking, $5 Food)

Research Summary
The goal of this research program is to elucidate the causes and pathophysiology of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The program was initiated in the 1990's to investigate the genetic etiology of OCD.
In the OCD Family Study (1996-2001), we evaluated over 800 individuals in 153 families. We found the occurrence of OCD to be six times greater in relatives of OCD cases than in relatives of the control group. Other anxiety disorders, especially agoraphobia and generalized anxiety disorder, also were more prevalent in case families. Segregation analysis provided evidence that genes of major effect are involved in OCD.
In the OCD Collaborative Genetics Study (2001-2007), we directed a genetics study of OCD in collaboration with five other academic centers in the United States. The collaboration diagnostically evaluated and collected DNA samples from over 200 affected sibling pairs, and completed the first large genome-wide genetic linkage scan of OCD. We found evidence of genetic linkage of OCD to regions on chromosomes 1, 3, 6, 7, and 15. We also found intrafamilial correlation of factor dimensions, especially hoarding behavior, in OCD families. In addition, we found significant linkage of compulsive hoarding behavior to a region on chromosome 14. We have been following up these findings with fine mapping of these regions and family-based association studies of functional candidate genes. This research has been funded by grants from the National Institutes of Health, the OCD Foundation, and the James E. Marshall OCD Foundation.
In the OCD Collaborative Genetics Association Study (2007 - 2014), we and our collaborators at five other academic centers are interviewing and collecting DNA samples from 2000 individuals with OCD and their parents. We will conduct a genome-wide association study to identify even smaller chromosomal regions associated with OCD.
Our current research studies are directed towards identifying both rare variants and de novo genetic variants in OCD, by whole and Exome sequencing.
Our research continues to be funded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), the James E. Marshall OCD Foundation, and the OC Foundation.

A pair of kicking competitions will highlight the Buffalo Bills' special teams battles in training camp.
Both incumbents, kicker Rian Lindell and punter Shawn Powell, will face serious pushes for their roster spots by sixth-round draft pick Dustin Hopkins and free agent Brian Stahovich, respectively.
"The new coaching staff made it clear there's competition for all positions for everybody," Lindell said in an interview with The Buffalo News this spring. "They don't have any track record with me, and they want at all positions to create competition, and I'm no different. I'm ready to compete."
Lindell, 36, is the longest-tenured player on the Bills' roster, having joined the team in 2003. He's the most accurate kicker in franchise history, hitting on 83.3 percent of his attempts. That includes an 87.5 percent success rate last year, when he was good on 21 of 24 attempts.
Inside 50 yards, Lindell has a career success rate of 84.3 percent. That number improves to 92.8 percent inside 40 yards, so accuracy is not a concern with Lindell. It's his ability to hit from 50-plus yards that new special teams coordinator Danny Crossman and coach Doug Marrone will have to judge.
Under former coach Chan Gailey, Lindell tried just two field goals from 50-plus yards in the last two seasons (he missed the second half of 2011 because of injury).
"I think it all depends on how and where we're evolving and where we're moving and what our plan is as a team, on finding the best way to win football games," Crossman said. "I've been around a lot of veteran kickers and it can change year to year on what the philosophy of that team is and how that team ends up being built."
Hopkins excelled on long field goals as a senior at Florida State, going 5 for 6. He was 9 for 15 (60 percent) from 50-plus yards in his college career. He was also strong from 40 to 49 yards, hitting 12 of 16 attempts over the last two seasons.
Hopkins also finished seventh in the nation with 43 touchbacks last year, accounting for 41 percent of his kickoffs. The Bills originally kept a kickoff specialist (John Potter) on the roster last year, but they went back to keeping one kicker and having Lindell perform the job starting in Week Seven. Lindell's touchback percentage of 14.5 was the lowest in the NFL last season.
Hopkins, 22, will be reunited with Powell – who held for him in college – provided the latter can hold off Stahovich.
Powell clearly has the bigger leg, but he struggled with consistency as a rookie. His net punting average of 38.1 was 23rd in the league. At 6-foot-4 and 235 pounds, the 24-year-old Powell is one of the biggest punters in the NFL. At 6-foot and 190 pounds, Stahovich doesn't come close to matching Powell's size, but he made a favorable impression during a voluntary three-day minicamp on a tryout basis and was subsequently signed to compete for the job.
Stahovich comes to training camp battle tested. He lost a competition for the Indianapolis Colts' job to Pat McAfee last season. Stahovich was the first punter in San Diego State history to earn first-team honors in the Mountain West Conference. He averaged 42 yards on 246 career collegiate punts.
The kicking jobs won't be the only ones up for grabs at camp. Given that special teams players usually come from the bottom half of the roster, it's not unusual for that phase of the game to see substantial turnover in the offseason.
The Bills will have to replace special teams captain Corey McIntyre and gunner Ruvell Martin, both of whom the team opted not to re-sign.
Buffalo does return its top three special teams tacklers from last season in Brad Smith (12), Nigel Bradham (10) and Chris White (nine). Cornerback Ron Brooks finished tied for fourth with Martin with seven special teams tackles despite missing the first half of the season because of a foot injury.
Smith, who is part of a tight roster battle on offense at wide receiver, had a healthy 27.6-yard average on 18 kick returns last season, including a touchdown. He could replace Martin as the primary gunner, and his versatility is his best hope to earn a roster spot.
Smith, though, isn't the only option as a kick returner. Speedy wideouts Marquise Goodwin and T.J. Graham handled the job in college, with Graham setting an Atlantic Coast Conference record with 3,153 yards on 137 returns (23 yards per return).
Leodis McKelvin is in line to start defensively at the No. 2 cornerback position, as well as resume his job as the team's punt returner. McKelvin has flourished in that role over the past two seasons, returning 31 punts for 587 yards (18.9-yard average) and three touchdowns. He also had the best kick return average on the team in 2012, as his 28.3-yard average on 18 attempts was slightly better than Smith's number. It would be a surprise, however, to see McKelvin start the season doing both jobs, especially given his defensive role.
Elsewhere, long snapper Garrison Sanborn is one of the best in the league and, barring injury, his job is safe. The Bills also have a weapon in the middle of the line in defensive tackle Alex Carrington, who blocked four kicks last season.

In Reply to: You can't see it from my house Posted by Tom Heilman on March 20, 2007
: Saying : "You can't see it from my house". Used frequently in the construction trades. A minor flaw or imperfection that is noticed by a co-worker might elicit this saying. Most often the flaw would have no effect either structurally or asthetically. Basicaly it's used to dismiss an imperfection
: as too trivial to redo.
I like it.

Flu vaccines are available at the Marion County Health Department Office on Wednesdays, starting this week, according to health department nurse Deidre Serene.
"We won't have any shortage this year, but that doesn't mean it still isn't important to get vaccinated," Serene said. "We have both the mist and the shots available."
This fall the Center for Disease Control recommends everyone 6 months or older get vaccinated against the flu, even if they were vaccinated last year.
Serene said the vaccine was specifically for the respiratory flu, not the intestinal kind.
"The vaccines are actually manufactured in January and February each year," Serene said. "The CDC predicts what kind strain of vaccine will be most effective, and that is what we give. They are usually pretty effective."
Gary Duerksen of Goessel went to Goessel Elementary Sept. 24 to get a flu vaccination along with his son, Zach. He said the shot made him feel so bad he may never want to get another one.
"I know they say you are not supposed to get sick from a flu shot, but I certainly had some kind of reaction," Duerksen said.
Duerksen, 50, said he was surprised to learn at the school that he could not get the mist vaccine, but because of his age had to get the shot. Then, eight hours later, he experienced headache, chills, and fever.
"I went to bed and didn't get up until 3 p.m. the next day," he said. "If it wasn't from the flu shot I don't know what it was from. I wasn't sick at all when I went in."
Serene said it was not uncommon to have a reaction to a flu shot, but likely Duerksen's illness was not related to his flu vaccine.
"The shots are made from synthetic substances," she said. "It would take 10 to 14 days for the exposure to cause anything to happen."
Serene did say that since the shot was given in the muscle like other vaccinations, illness from nerves or other sources could be exacerbated.
"The shots differ in their makeup each year, so sometimes people just feel differently after they get them," she said.
Scientists make flu vaccines with eggs, and people with egg allergies should not get them. However, for all others, the vaccinations are important to prevent more serious illness should a flu epidemic strike the country.
Serene said that flu vaccinations of either type were perfectly safe, even for pregnant women.
She also explained that the nasal mist contains a live vaccine, and the injectable shot is made from synthetics.
"The immune system of babies and older people over 50 is not as strong," she said. "That is why they are not given the live-viral mist option."
She also said people with asthma or suppressed immune systems should opt for the shot instead of the mist vaccination.
Serene predicted there would be no shortage of flu vaccine available this year and her office in Marion will be open on Wednesday specifically for those wanting flu shots or nasal spray mist.
"We are doing clinics at schools and communities in the county on other days," she said. "But we will be here starting this Wednesday from 8:30 a.m. to 12, and from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. to vaccinate the public."
Serene said flu vaccination clinics will take place Friday at the Marion Senior Center for the Marion community, Monday at Centre school for the Lincolnville and Tampa communities, and Tuesday at the Florence City Building in Florence.

Disclosure in 2012
Recently a couple of stories broke about attempts to bring disclosure back into the political fundraising process. The first was about a draft executive order that will make it harder for federal contractors to use campaign finance vehicles like American Crossroads GPS to support candidates without disclosing that fact. The second article covers DCCC chairman Rep. Chris Van Hollen's (D-MD) suit against the FEC as part of an attempt to get that very same group (Crossroads GPS) to disclose its donors.
Neither article mentions the larger context:
In 2010, a Republican filibuster doomed the DISCLOSE act in the Senate. The DISCLOSE act was a response to the Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v FEC, and would've enacted the disclosure requirements explicitly called for by Justice Anthony Kennedy in his majority opinion. Republicans killed the bill because they knew disclosure would limit the amount of money they could raise through vehicles like Crossroads GPS. There are plenty of corporations out there that support Republicans, but not all of them are looking to be Target.
With the Senate deadlocked, the FEC seemed like another route for protecting disclosure. Unfortunately, it's also paralyzed. By law, the FEC is composed of 3 Democratic and 3 Republican comissioners. As in the Senate, the Republican members of the FEC are hostile to anything that might increase disclosure and bring transparency into the system. So the FEC remains deadlocked (for more on exactly how/why this is happening, see the link above).
That context is important because, when the legislative and regulatory routes are closed down by Republican obstruction, only the courts and executive branch remain. Any right-wing vitriol directed against these measures that doesn't acknowledge the GOP's role in closing off all other routes is an attempt to deceive the audience.
The issue of disclosure is of critical importance to our democracy. Think of it this way: speech, as most of us understand it, is associated with identifiable voices. Accordingly, if money is speech, we need to know who is speaking. When that link breaks down, it's hard for voters–and the reporters they depend on–to tell what interests are moving through our political process. The advertisements run by Mom 'n Pop Apple Pie Shop could be a underwritten by money from Big Pie, and there'd be no way for anyone to know. Ultimately, there's no way to make an informed decision about who to vote for if you don't and can't know who's backing them.
One option is to take money out of politics, but I'm not sure there's an effective way to use politics to keep money out of politics. If you accept the proposition that interest groups can affect political outcomes, then it seems only natural that they'd work to ensure their main avenue for exerting that influence isn't cut off by an act of Congress. Even if you're willing to assume a perfect piece of campaign finance legislation, you still run into the problem that the law is constantly evolving. A decision down the road that couldn't possibly have been forseen can punch a hole through even the most well-crafted campaign finance law. In fact, we just saw that very thing happen with the Citizens United decision that undermined years of precedent and opened huge gaps in McCain-Feingold.
That reality is why ActBlue is so important. We're taking the most settled aspect of campaign finance law (the right of individuals to give to candidates) and using it as a way to demonstrate that small donors can have a powerful voice in our politics. By disclosing those donations, we're working to remove the stigma of political giving and make it an easy and regular part of American life. In the end, we're working to restore the very confidence in our political system that Republicans are actively undermining in search of an ever larger, ever less accountable grip on our political system.

TACOMA, Wash. – Senior Ava Williams turned in a pair of event wins to lead the Puget Sound swim teams on Senior Day at Wallace Pool. The day started with the recognition of the Loggers 10 seniors but ended with a pair of losses as Whitman swept the dual meet.
Whitman's men's team pulled off a 1367.5-67.5 win while the Missionary women had a comeback 112-93 win.
The Loggers women had a narrow one-point lead heading into the final two events. Melissa Norrish had just won the 400-meter free to power the Loggers into the lead. However, the Missionaries Genay Pilarowski won her second event of the day in the 100m breast and Whitman finished 1-2 in the 200m free relay to capture the team win.
Williams two wins came in the 50m free and the 100m free. She first took the 50 free with a 28.60 before swimming a 1:01.36 to earn the top spot in the 100m free.
Williams started the day off with another event win in the 200m medley relay. She swam the anchor leg and combined with Sam Anders, Tracy Wormwood and Auri Clark for a winning time of 2:05.07. Anders also captured an individual win in the 100m back.
Keven Henley was the lone event winner for the Loggers on the men's side. He shared the top spot in the 50m free with Whitman's Sam Starr. The two both recorded a time of 25.17.
Galen Solom-Brotherton, Karl Mering, Nic Win and Starr each had to event wins to power Whitman to the team win.
The Loggers will conclude their dual season next Saturday at Pacific Lutheran before turning their sights to the NWC Championships in February.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Omar Clayton hit Michael Johnson for three touchdown passes in leading UNLV to an 45-10 win over New Mexico on Saturday night.
The two connected for scores from 10, 43, and 35 yards as coach Bobby Hauck won his first game with UNLV (1-3, 1-1 Mountain West).
Clayton finished 14 of 20 with 194 yards passing, while Johnson had 138 yards on eight catches as the Rebels scored 45 straight points after trailing New Mexico (0-4, 0-2) by a touchdown in the first quarter.
Tarean Austin, New Mexico's first true freshman starting quarterback since 1988, finished 17 of 40 for 177 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. in the third quarter, Austin fumbled on Sidney Hodge's sack, and B.J. Bell picked up the ball and ran 40 yards to a touchdown to make the score 42-7.
New Mexico has been outscored 225-41 this year.
Clayton's first TD pass was intended for Phillip Payne, but the ball bounced off his hands and caromed to Johnson in the left side of the end zone. Johnson became the first Rebel to catch three scoring passes in a game in 14 years.
UNLV's Channing Trotter and Tim Cornett had a TD run each in the first half.
Demond Dennis had 88 yards rushing on 13 carries for New Mexico.

School textbooks will require re-writing following the addition of four new elements to the periodic table.
Discovered by scientists in Russia, Japan and America, the four super-heavy chemical elements are the first to be added to the table since 2011, when elements 114 and 116 were added.
They complete the seventh row of the table, immediately rendering the world's science textbooks out of date.
The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry verified the four new elements on December 30.
A Russian-American team at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California and the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna were deemed to have produced enough evidence to claim the discovery of elements 115, 117 and 118 - the first new additions to the table since 2011, when elements 114 and 116 were added.
The elements, discovered by scientists in Japan, Russia and America, are the first to be added to the table since 2011, when elements 114 and 116 were added.
Credit for element 113 went to a team from the Riken institute in Japan who now plan to "look to the unchartered territory of element 119 and beyond."
Ryoji Noyori, former Riken president and Nobel laureate in chemistry said: "To scientists, this is of greater value than an Olympic gold medal".
"The chemistry community is eager to see its most cherished table finally being completed down to the seventh row," said Professor Jan Reedijk, president of the Inorganic Chemistry Division of IUPAC.
"IUPAC has now initiated the process of formalising names and symbols for these elements temporarily named as ununtrium, (Uut or element 113), ununpentium (Uup, element 115), ununseptium (Uus, element 117), and ununoctium (Uuo, element 118)."
New elements can be named after a mythological concept, a mineral, a place or country, a property or a scientist.
The four new man-made elements only exist for fractions of a second before decaying into other elements, formed from collisions of lighter nuclei.

Emmylou Harris & Rodney Crowell: Old Yellow Moon
Label: NONESUCH
Catalog: 2534285
Format: CD
1 Hanging Up My Heart - 2:52 2 Invitation to the Blues - 3:40 3 Spanish Dancer - 3:46 4 Open Season on My Heart - 3:42 5 Chase the Feeling - 3:31 6 Black Caffeine - 3:25 7 Dreaming My Dreams - 3:19 8 Bluebird Wine - 2:58 9 Back When We Were Beautiful - 3:43 10 Here We Are - 3:17 11 Bull Rider - 3:07 12 Old Yellow Moon - 3:37
This one was a long time coming, and given its nearly effortless execution, one wonders what took so long. Old Yellow Moon is an album of duets between Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell. He was a rhythm guitarist and backing vocalist in her Hot Band in the mid-'70s. After he left, he continued contributing songs to her records for the better part of two decades. But this marks a reunion of more than just Harris and Crowell. Brian Ahern, who produced her early Warner recordings -- and who is her former husband -- helms these sessions, with Hot Band members James Burton, John Ware, and Bill Payne making appearances, as well as heavy hitters Vince Gill, Stuart Duncan, and Steuart Smith, to name a few. Though recorded in Nashville, the sound of this recording is posited somewhere between the Southern California country sound of the early '70s and some of Music City's more adventurous sounds in the mid- to late years of that decade. The song choices are as eclectic as one would expect. Some of the set's highlights include a smokin' redo of "Bluebird Wine," which appeared as the opening cut on Harris' classic Pieces of the Sky album. This version has some fine-tuned lyrics in the first two verses -- Crowell was only 21 when he wrote it. The readings of Roger Miller's Invitation to the Blues" and Allen Reynolds' "Dreaming My Dreams" are a pair of beautifully done standards. There are three excellent cuts here by Hank DeVito, another original member of the Hot Band. They include the midtempo, hard country opener "Hanging Up My Heart," the bluesy "Black Caffeine," and the title cut, a lilting waltz that closes the record. Crowell also contributed "Open Season on My Heart" (originally recorded by Tim McGraw), the languid pedal steel honky tonk ballad "Here We Are," and the back porch "Bull Rider." Kris Kristofferson's "Chase the Feeling" is given a rumbling, punchy, country-rock treatment here. Harris largely goes it alone on Patti Scialfa's "Spanish Dancer," in a radically different reading than the songwriter's, but Gill's gut string guitar, Jim Hoke's spare accordion, and Crowell's hushed harmony on the chorus offer a more picaresque take. The only misstep here should have been a natural: Matraca Berg's wonderful "Back When We Were Beautiful," recorded by the songwriter in 1997, feels forced; it lacks the stark drama of the original, replacing it instead it with a nostalgia that isn't true to the song. While this doesn't carry the weight of an "historic" recording, it is thoroughly enjoyable. Harris is in better voice than she's been in years and Crowell is a natural as a duet partner. Let's hope they consider Old Yellow Moon more than just a one-off, "bucket list" album. ~ Thom Jurek, Rovi
