The reintroduction of Mexican gray wolves to a mountain range just south of the U.S.-Mexico border as part of an effort to re-establish the endangered species is off to a rocky start. Correspondence between Mexican wildlife officials and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service confirmed Tuesday that four out of the five wolves released by Mexico’s Environment Department last October are dead from poisoning. Despite the deaths, supporters of wolf reintroduction in the American Southwest are still hoping releases in Mexico can provide a genetic boost to a small population of wolves in New Mexico and Arizona. “They’ve been working for decades for this reintroduction so obviously this is setback, but my assumption and hope is that they will continue and make it successful,” said Michael Robinson of the Center for Biological Diversity, an American group that has supported returning
the wolves to their historic range. The Mexican agency that oversees that country’s natural resources and the environment released three female wolves — ages 11, 4 and 3 — and two 3-year-old male wolves in Sonora’s San Luis Mountains in early October. The wolves went through rehabilitation in northern Mexico and were fitted with GPS collars so they could be tracked. Mexico’s reintroduction effort has been 20 years in the making. A release of captive wolves into the wild was first proposed in 2009 but faced delays. As for the poisoned wolves, Mexican officials said one was found in November and the other three in December. Necropsies were done on all four animals and results in each case were positive for warfarin, a blood thinner that’s commonly used in rat poison and pesticide. It was unclear whether the warfarin was set out intentionally for the wolves. Mexican officials did not provide any details about how the poison was consumed, and law enforcement
agents were investigating. The surviving female wolf is continuing to feed on rabbits and rodents in the area, officials said. Similar reintroduction work in the U.S. started in 1998, but that program has been hampered by court battles, disputes between ranchers and environmentalists, livestock depredations and illegal shootings. In the first year, five of the 13 wolves released in the U.S. were shot. Now, there are at least 58 wolves in the wild in Arizona and New Mexico — more wolves than in each of the past five years. Mexican officials have a recovery plan for the species and intend to carry on with the program, said Sherry Barrett, director of the Mexican gray wolf program in the U.S. “Any time we have this type of problem, we’re disappointed,” she said Tuesday of the wolf deaths in Mexico. “But it’s not insurmountable.” Neither Mexico nor the U.S. has announced any specific plans for future releases to bolster their wild wolf populations.
UNM Accountant Clifford Roudabush died on campus Monday after suffering an apparent heart attack. Roudabush has worked for the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department since 1997. His coworkers knew him as a kind, hardworking and humble man, said Luke Lester, professor and interim chair of the department. “He was a lynch pin in running our department from an accounting point of view, and he was a great guy,” Lester said. “He was kind and always had a positive point of view and was very patient with staff and students. He knew everything there was to know about his position and about (highly technical) UNM policies.” Editorial technician Chuck Reuben has worked with Roudabush since he joined the department in 2005. Reuben said the sudden death has been difficult for the department.

Los Alamos labs anticipate budget, staff cuts by Jeri Clausing
The Associated Press
The nation’s premier nuclear facility unveiled plans Tuesday to shed as many as 800 employees, or nearly 10 percent of its regular permanent workforce, as it faces a $300 million budget cut this year and the prospect of continued reductions. Los Alamos National Laboratory said it has submitted a plan to reduce its regular full-time staff of 7,585 by between 400 and 800 this spring through “a voluntary separation program.”

It also employs more than 3,000 contractors, students and other lab workers but they would not be affected “at this time,” a spokeswoman said. Lab Director Charlie McMillan said plans to offer voluntary buyouts are part of “an attempt to reduce the risks of involuntary layoffs.” He appointed a committee to look for savings last year after Congress cut the lab’s budget to $2.2 billion from $2.5 billion. “When combined with a suppressed attrition rate for the past three years, our current budget and
future outlook require significant cost-cutting,” he said in a statement. The plan must be approved by the National Nuclear Security Administration, which oversees the nation’s nuclear facilities. The announcement came after the Obama administration announced last week that it planned to defer for at least five years construction of a controversial $6 billion plutonium research lab at Los Alamos. Construction had been expected to begin this year on the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research Replacement Nuclear Facility.

County officials said they were told the deferment would result in a loss of 1,000 planned construction jobs. “It’s disappointing because last year we were told that these missions were key to the defense of our country,” said Sharon Stover, chairwoman of the Los Alamos County Council. “I’m not sure what’s changed in the last few months, but we have a delegation that is going to D.C. next month … We hope our congressional leaders can get us some answers and reverse the trend.”
U.S. Sen. Tom Udall, D-N.M., said he was concerned about the impact that budget cuts would have at the lab. “LANL is critical to our national security and state’s economy and I will continue to push for adequate funding at both of New Mexico’s national labs,” Udall said in a statement. Watchdog groups, however, said the cuts were good news. “The post-Cold War nuclear weapons missions at LANL have

Fashion designer and UNM student Cardell J. McClam said New Mexico is the ideal place to create fashion. “I like living here because it feels natural to me,” he said. “I can just observe people and create my own fashion.” His latest designs debuted at the Powerful Movement of Educated Sisters’ “My Black Is. . .” event in honor of Black History Month on Saturday in the SUB. McClam said he put together all 14 looks featured in the show. He said it was a heavy undertaking that provided a hectic atmosphere backstage. “I would much rather be in the audience watching than stand alone, having to do with everything backstage.” McClam, who is originally from the Bahamas, said he has been interested in fashion since high school when he began sketching designs and producing prom apparel for his classmates. He said he used his own money to pay for supplies and didn’t charge students for his work. “Pretty soon people just started coming up to me saying, ‘You designed that outfit, didn’t you? Can you design one for me?’” he said. McClam said he felt called to move to New Mexico. “A UNM representative came and talked to me after I had already decided on another school, and it was very mystic, but I felt like God told me I had to come to New Mexico,” he said. McClam said he decided to pursue degrees in psychology and business to enhance his résumé before venturing into the professional market. He has been a UNM student for one and a half years. McClam said he was sure he wanted to pursue a career in fashion design, but said he felt it was important to serve others through his work. “I didn’t want to be just a superficial designer … I needed a cause,” McClam said. Then in the summer of 2010 he learned his grandfather’s cancer had come back. “My grandfather always dresses so stylish, and I thought, ‘There it is — my cause!’” McClam said he decided to use his talent to promote men’s health, specifically men’s cancer awareness. The name of his “HERC” brand is derived from his grandfather’s

Dylan Smith/ Daily Lobo name, Herbert Clarke. Later in 2010, Rayette McDonald, the president of Esteem Productions in the Bahamas, approached McClam about creating designs for her upcoming fashion show featuring fullfigured women. McClam said he was reluctant to accept the job. “I thought, ‘I don’t know about this.’ I had never made designs for full-figured women, and I wanted to promote health, which I guess showed my ignorance of the time,” he said. “Then another enlightenment happened to me, and I thought, ‘Why aren’t I doing this?’” McClam’s team filmed interviews with women talking openly about their bodies and edited the footage into a video, which Editor-in-Chief Chris Quintana Managing Editor Elizabeth Cleary News Editor Luke Holmen Staff Reporter Christopher Bartlett Avicra Luckey Photo Editor Dylan Smith
he screened at the event. “It was extremely emotional for some women to talk about their bodies,” he said. “Some got mad or shut down, but some celebrated their curves,” McClam said. “I showed the footage at the show because I wanted to promote confidence, and I noticed many of the women kept saying, ‘It’s Cardellicious, baby,’ because my nickname is Cardellicious.” McClam said he named his brand Cardellicious in honor of the project. McClam said he has plans to expand both Herc and Cardellicious into full clothing lines. “I don’t know what tomorrow holds, but everything will just happen the way it is supposed to,” McClam said.

Lawsuit served on Facebook by Raphael Satter The Associated Press
LONDON — Status update: You’re sued. Legal authorities said Tuesday that a High Court judge in England has approved the use of Facebook to serve legal claims. Lawyers in a commercial dispute were last week granted permission to serve a suit against a defendant via the popular social networking site. Justice Nigel Teare permitted the unconventional method of service during a pretrial hearing into a case which pits two investment managers against a brokerage firm they accuse of overcharging them. A former trader and an exbroker, Fabio De Biase and Anjam Ahmad, are also alleged to have been in on the scam. Jenni Jenkins, who represents
Los Alamos
Ahmad, said lawyers in the case had been trying to track De Biase in order to serve him with legal documents. She said that a copy of the suit was left at his last known address, but that it wasn’t clear whether he was still living there. The lawyers didn’t have his email address, so they applied for permission to send him the claim through Facebook. Jenkins, an associate with London-based law firm Memery Crystal, said the lawyers were confident that de Biase’s account was still active. “The counsel told the judge that someone from the firm had been monitoring the account and they’d seen that he’s recently added two new friends, which made the judge chuckle,� she said. De Biase was given extra time to respond to the claim “to allow for the possibility that he wasn’t
accessing his account regularly,� she added. Ordinarily, British legal claims are served in hard copy — either in person, by mail, or by fax — although unconventional means are occasionally employed if the people involved are hard to pin down. In December, a British judge made headlines for filing an injunction against London-based protesters from the Occupy movement via text message. The Judicial Office for England and Wales confirmed Tuesday that Teare had allowed lawyers to serve their claim through Facebook. A spokeswoman, speaking on condition of anonymity because she was not authorized to give her name, said it was the first time anyone had been served via the site “as far as we’re aware.� Facebook did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.

grown much too much over the past 17 years,� said Greg Mello, director of the Los Alamos Study Group. “Not only have the missions grown, but so has the cost per scientist.� Stover said Los Alamos and the surrounding communities are particularly upset about funding cuts for cleanup of legacy waste. The Obama administration last year sought $363 million to remove thousands of barrels of radioactive waste stored above ground on the 40 square mile lab complex, but the final budget from Congress appropriated just half of that. The potential danger from the waste gained national attention last summer when the largest wildfire in New Mexico history lapped at the edges of lab property. The lab also is the economic
driver for the city and surrounding communities in northern New Mexico. About 40 percent of the lab’s nearly 12,000 total workforce lives in the county, which has about 17,950 residents. Maintaining the health of the lab is the county’s No. 1 goal for economic vitality, Stover said. The lab last offered the buyouts in 2008, when 431 out of 8,110 regular permanent employees volunteered to leave. “We were successful when we took similar action in 2008,� McMillan said. “I am fully aware of the economic footprint this lab has in northern New Mexico, and we’re taking every possible step to minimize the impacts.� McMillan said details of the separation packages would not be disclosed until the plan is approved.

“He helped the chair out a lot,� he said. “But (beyond that), we had a special connection. He was just a really nice person and very helpful.� Roudabush began work in a front desk support position and was promoted several times, before he landed the position he held at the time of his death, Computer Sciences Dean Gruia-Catalin Roman said in an email.

LETTER Community will miss longtime accountant Editor, When it came to counting beans, nobody at UNM could compare with Cliff Roudabush. Accounting can be a thankless staff job where many become rather somber and cynical, but not Cliff. He was, by far, one of the friendliest and hardworking staff members that I have ever met. I never heard him gossip, and he would bend over backwards to help anyone in a bind. Nobody understood the “Red Book” (UNM’s policies and procedures) like Cliff. He was ethical, diligent and friendly. But most of all he was humble. He deserved much more recognition than he ever received because he didn’t campaign for it: Cliff was beyond politics. Cliff Roudabush peacefully passed away at his desk in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering on Monday, doing one of the things he loved: helping people through the financial labyrinth. And perhaps that’s the best reward any of us can ask from UNM: The respect of our colleagues and the satisfaction of doing a good job. Chuck Reuben UNM staff

Pussyfooting not the way to argue by Devon Stevens
Daily Lobo columnist
Whenever somebody begins a sentence with “I’m a (blank), but…” I know I’m going to be sneering at whatever they’re about to say. The “I’m an atheist/Christian/Democrat/ethicist, but” line is especially humorous because it tells me two things: The first is that you are trying to ingratiate yourself to me by attempting to form a common bond, and the second says that you are hoping that this phrase will protect you from an unpleasant rebuttal. What it says, in other words, is, “Hey, look, I’m the same as you. You like people the same as you. If you think I’m the same as you, I can sway you to my point of view.” Well, no. You bloody cannot because you’ve just painted a bright red target on your ass and declared it hunting season. Oh, you’re a libertarian, too? A Republican? A social feminist? And you are about to express an opinion contrary to what that group usually says? Sounds like you’re lying to me, and, even if you are not, I hope you know your positions backward and forward because I’m going to be directing verbal artillery fire at them so I can utterly destroy them.
There is no reason to hold back, either. When you use such a smarmy trick to try and fool me, while expressing such a poor opinion of your own views at the same time, I’m going to be pissed. It’s the equivalent to approaching somebody with your arms over your face while saying, “Please don’t hit me.” It invites attack. Don’t do this.
...you’ve just painted a bright red target on your ass and declared it hunting season. Instead, state your opinion boldly: “Hey! You’re making us all look bad!” is infinitely better than laying down your arms and accepting defeat before you have even heard my response. Or hit back with your own opinion and be proud of what it is. Show me the error of my ways with courage, not cowardice. I do not mean that you should be close-minded. I do not mean that you should ignore all opinions
contrary to your own. What I mean is that nothing can get done in an argument where one side presents itself as weak. If you truly believe that the other side is wrong and that it needs to hear your opinion, express that opinion. Do not coat it in words to weaken its impact. Say it directly. An argument is a verbal fight distinct from a discussion where both sides are trying to learn something. Do not confuse the two, and treat them appropriately. And what is the worst the opposition can say, anyway? Either that you’re wrong or you are an idiot. And if they go only with the second they’re fools and you can ignore them because they cannot back up their opinions with a solid argument. You do not need to be articulate with fools. You don’t even need to articulate at all with them. So fear not — throw back your shoulders and state your mind. State it boldly, state it proudly, and don’t mind those who would tear you down. If it is worth believing, it is worth defending and no idea, however true or sound, can be defended with such a weak position as “I’m a… but…” Do not apologize before you can be proven wrong. Do not apologize if you are not wrong.
LETTER Reader awaits religious harmony before he dies Editor, “The tragedy in life doesn’t lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach.” — Benjamin Mays. Here are three of my dreams: I want to live long enough to see the day when all the people, in each community on this planet, hold their religious services honoring their various beliefs in the same building (a very plain-looking structure) either in different rooms or on different days of the week. The remaining current, very ornate
religious structures that exist today could then be used for other purposes. This would free the religious groups of the financial obligation to maintain them, and could provide all those groups with money they could use for worthwhile purposes — such as providing shelter, food and clothing for the homeless in their communities or abroad. I want to live long enough to see the day when we human beings stop being separated into warring camps over something as insignificant as what name we use to refer to the source of all that is in our universe. How about all of us who speak English agree that “GOD” is an acronym for the good orderly direction that we appeal to to provide us all, individually and collectively, with the appropriate guidance for all of our
thoughts, words and actions? I am certain that there are equivalent acronyms for the name used in other languages to refer to the source of all that is in our universe. And I want to live long enough to see the day when most people stop seeking to find “proof ” for what they already believe is absolute truth. I want to see us allow the fact that none of us is in possession of absolute truth, so that we can all begin openly, honestly and authentically seeking absolute truth, cooperatively and compassionately, together to the best of our combined ability. Are you willing to assist me in manifesting these dreams? Robert Gardiner Daily Lobo reader

NM Medicaid may add co-pay by Barry Massey
The Associated Press SANTA FE — Gov. Susana Martinez’s administration is proposing to overhaul a program that provides health care to a fourth of the state’s population, and the changes could require some needy New Mexicans to dig into their pockets to pay a fee if they go to an emergency room for medical care that’s not considered an emergency. One of the goals of the planned revision is to slow the rate of growth in Medicaid, which accounts for 16 percent of this year’s state budget and costs New Mexico taxpayers nearly $1 billion. “We think it’s a broken system. We think we need to change it now,” Human Services Secretary Sidonie Squier said Tuesday in an interview in which she outlined the proposed revisions, which will require federal government approval. She emphasized that there will be no cuts in enrollment or changes in who’s eligible to receive medical services, and there will be no reduction in rates paid to health care providers. However, the state proposes to require “co-pays” for Medicaid recipients who go to an emergency room for routine medical care and for using a brand name drug when a generic drug is available. The fee will be $3 for brand name drugs but won’t apply to certain drugs used to treat mental health conditions. The fees for using an emergency room will vary according to a person’s income, but could range from $6 to $50. The state hopes to have the
revamped Medicaid program implemented in October 2013. Ruth Hoffman, director of Lutheran Advocacy Ministry in New Mexico, said she was pleased there were no cuts in benefits or eligibility for medical services and described the co-pay requirements as “minimal.” “There is an emphasis on health and outcomes, which is a good idea,” said Hoffman, who wants to see more information as the state prepares a detailed application for the Medicaid changes that will be submitted to the federal government for approval. Hoffman called the administration’s proposals a “reasonable starting point.” Currently, Medicaid is a host of health care plans that provide different services for various segments of the population, ranging from children without insurance to disabled adults and individuals with behavioral health problems. The program is jointly financed by the state and federal government, and has been among the fastest growing costs in New Mexico’s state budget. A key element of the overhaul calls for using fewer health care contractors to provide a broader range of medical services through managed care. Behavioral health services will no longer operate separately but will be part of the main consolidated Medicaid plan. Longterm health care services to the developmentally disabled will remain separate, however. A managed care organization will need to offer services ranging from health care to newborns to long-term nursing services. The state currently contracts with seven
managed care organizations for various Medicaid services. Squier wants to reduce that although there’s no target number. The changes should help simplify administration of Medicaid, but Squier said the proposed overhaul also is intended to improve the coordination of care and “help us get to healthy outcomes where people get better and they stay better.” “We don’t know if we are getting good outcomes for all the money that we spend,” said Squier. “That has to change. We have to know.” The state is proposing to offer rewards to Medicaid recipients “engaging in healthy behaviors,” such giving people a retail store gift card if they follow a certain plan of care. To try to expand access to health care, the state wants to use school-based health clinics to serve Medicaid patients in some parts of the state and expand a “telemedicine” program that uses online web-based conferencing to help train primary care providers in rural areas for treating complex medical conditions. The administration proposes to automatically enroll Native Americans into Medicaid’s managed care system for those who are eligible for the program. Currently, Medicaid-eligible members of New Mexico’s tribes and pueblos have the option of using managed care organizations, but otherwise are in a fee-for-service plan that leaves it to individuals to make many of their decisions about medical services. Squier said the change should provide better coordination of health care for tribal members.

Affirmative action on trial by Mark Sherman The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court is setting an election-season review of racial preference in college admissions, agreeing Tuesday to consider new limits on the contentious issue of affirmative action programs. A challenge from a white student who was denied admission to the University of Texas flagship campus will be the high court’s first look at affirmative action in higher education since its 2003 decision endorsing the use of race as a factor. This time around, a more conservative court could jettison that earlier ruling or at least limit when colleges may take account of race in admissions. In a term already filled with health care, immigration and political redistricting, the justices won’t hear the affirmative action case until the fall. But the political calendar will still add drama. Arguments likely will take place in the final days of the presidential election campaign. A broad ruling in favor of the student, Abigail Fisher, could threaten affirmative action programs at many of the nation’s public and private universities, said Vanderbilt University law professor Brian Fitzpatrick. A federal appeals court upheld the Texas program at issue, saying it was allowed under the high court’s decision in Grutter v. Bollinger in 2003, which upheld racial considerations in university admissions at the University of Michigan Law School. But there have been changes in the Supreme Court since then. For one thing, Justice Samuel Alito appears more hostile to affirmative action than his predecessor, Sandra Day O’Connor. For another, Justice Elena Kagan, who might be expected to vote with the court’s liberalleaning justices in support of it, is not taking part in the case. Kagan’s absence probably is a result of the Justice Department’s participation in the Texas case in the lower courts at a time when she served as the Obama administration’s solicitor general. Fisher, of Sugar Land, Texas, filed a lawsuit along with another woman
“This case presents the Court with an opportunity to clarify the boundaries of race preferences in higher education or even reconsider whether race should be permitted at all under the Constitution’s guarantee of equal protection,� Edward Blum director of the Project on Fair Representation when they were denied admission at the university’s Austin campus. They contended the school’s raceconscious policy violated their civil and constitutional rights. By then, the two had enrolled elsewhere. The other woman has since dropped out of the case. The state has said that Fisher is a Louisiana State University senior whose impending graduation should bring an end to the lawsuit. But the Supreme Court appeared not to buy that argument Tuesday. The Project on Fair Representation, which opposes the use of race in public policy, has helped pay Fisher’s legal bills. “This case presents the Court with an opportunity to clarify the boundaries of race preferences in higher education or even reconsider whether race should be permitted at all under the Constitution’s guarantee of equal protection,� said Edward Blum, the group’s director. The project also issued a statement in Fisher’s name. “I hope the court will decide that all future UT applicants will be allowed to compete for admission without their race or ethnicity being a factor,� she said.

Most incoming freshmen at UT are admitted because they are among the top 10 percent in their high school classes. Fisher’s grades did not put her in that category. The Texas Legislature adopted the Top Ten Percent law after a federal appeals court ruling essentially barred the use of race in admissions. But following the high court ruling in 2003, the university resumed considering race starting with its 2005 entering class. The policy at issue applies to the remaining spots beyond those filled by the top 10 percent and allows for the consideration of race along with other factors Texas said its updated policy does not use quotas, which the high court has previously rejected. Instead, it said it takes a Supreme Court-endorsed broader approach to enrollment, with an eye toward increasing the diversity of the student body. “We must have the flexibility to consider each applicant’s unique experiences and background so we can provide the best environment in which to educate and train the students who will be our nation’s future leaders,� said Bill Powers, president of the University of Texas at Austin. Before adding race back into the mix, Texas’ student body was 21 percent African-American and Hispanic, according to court papers. By 2007, the year before Fisher filed her lawsuit, African-Americans and Hispanics accounted for more than a quarter of the entering freshman class. Fisher’s challenge says the Top Ten Percent law was working to increase diversity and that minority enrollment was higher than it had been under the earlier raceconscious system. Fitzpatrick said two other states, California and Florida, use similar “top 10� plans, although California law explicitly prohibits the consideration of race. “But the vast majority of schools that are selective are using affirmative action, though they don’t like to advertise it for fear of being sued,� he said. The case is Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin, 11-345.

Dancer uses her art as therapy
Wednesday, February 22, 2012 / Page 7

nicole11@unm.edu AirDance New Mexico is an alternative performance company that combines elements of dance, theater, circus arts and rock climbing. Founder Debra Landau has been involved with dance for more than 27 years. She didn’t discover her love for the art form until college. She also owns a movement-therapy practice in which she works with neurological movement disorders as well as sexual abuse victims. She holds a bachelor’s degree in fine arts from UNM. Daily Lobo: How and why did you first get involved with dance? Debra Landau: I didn’t dance as a child. I was studying biochemistry and I got pretty close to finishing that degree, but I had some health

and personal issues. I just suddenly had that sinking realization that just because I’m good at this and I kind of like it, it might not be what I want to do with the rest of my life. Also, all the chemicals were making me ill. I’m asthmatic and all that time in the lab just turned out to be bad. You can only take care of so many fumes, and I think emotion and stress didn’t help. I started getting out of the lab and took a couple theater and dance classes to relieve stress, be active and have a little fun. DL: So how did it turn into your career? Landau: There was this practical side in me, and part of it was my family, that was like ‘Well yeah have fun, but you can’t do that.’ Long story short, I did do that. I was just really encouraged and I thought ‘Okay I didn’t dance as a
child so I can get into dance, but I’ll be a choreographer, I won’t be a performer.’ I transferred to UNM, got my bachelor’s in fine arts, and became a performer. DL: What is your profession? Landau: Movement therapy is the meeting place of physical therapy, occupational therapy and maybe a little psychotherapy. A lot of my clients are sexually abused folks … It’s not psychotherapy but I do work with them in terms of helping them feel more comfortable with their bodies, how to move those bodies and live with those bodies. Some people really are able to recapture a childlike quality when spinning on the trapezes or sitting on them, hanging on them. For the sexual abuse victims, especially people who were abused as children, that can be very helpful for their self-esteem.
DL: How are you still doing aerial work with 20-year-olds when you’re in your late 40s? Landau: One of my dance mentors used to say ‘It doesn’t hurt until you stop,’ so it’s like ‘Okay, then don’t stop.’ It does hurt, but I do know if I take a break it hurts more. I’m trying to cut down; it’s almost like an addiction. DL: Does your movement therapy work ever transfer into your AirDance work? Landau: I started working with surgical tubing as a physical therapy tool. I attached my wrists and ankles to surgical tubing so I had the bounce of bungee, and suspended without the harness. I would have dreams of this awesome choreography because my pelvis is free from a harness, and then I would also have nightmares that I would drop down on the first drop and I’d be drawn and quartered.

CAMPUS EVENTS
According to the New Mexico Conference of Churches, more than half of the youths released from the New Mexico Juvenile Detention System will return. In an effort to reduce these numbers, UNM senior David Fischman founded the Second Chance for New Mexico Youth Collaborative, a mentorship program that connects UNM students with incarcerated youth. The program began last fall and operates in conjunction with Partners Envisioning Progress and Big Brothers Big Sisters. UNM students who participate in the program earn class credit. Fischman said the mentors encourage their clients to go back to school and maintain jobs. “Obviously they’ve made some bad mistakes, but I don’t think that we should lock them up and throw away the key,” Fischman said. “I don’t think the correction system alone has any chance of rehabilitating these kids. I think it takes positive one-to-one

relationships to really do that.” Fischman said mentors can provide a level of support that most troubled youths have never experienced. Fischman said many of the young people in the program come from the same areas of Albuquerque. “A lot of them are coming from the same ZIP codes that have high rates of violent crime, high poverty levels,” he said. “Most of the girls have been victims of sexual abuse, and a lot of the kids have had problems with drug abuse. I think that a lot of these kids just don’t have as good of a chance at things as what most of us take for granted.” Second Chance mentor Andrew Limon has been working with his client since October. He said that his first encounter with him was a moment he will never forget. “You walk through the barbedwire fence and the big sliding doors,” Limon said. “I mean, you’re going into a place where they want to protect people. The thing that really stands out, and it will stand out forever, was when we met, he said ‘Just be there for me.’ I knew then that I didn’t have to worry
about him trying to use me.” Limon said he meets with his client once a week and spends this time joking around and using positive reinforcement. Limon recently turned 21, and said his age helps him connect with his client. “You still sort of have to be a kid at heart to relate to them,” he said. Mentor Antonia Romero said she grew up in a bad neighborhood, which has made her relationships with her clients very intimate. “I’ve had people who I was friends with when I was a little kid; I see them now and they’re all now on drugs,” Romero said. “I felt bad that I wasn’t there for them and that now I could be there for someone else — before they end up with a life like that.” Romero said Second Chance has been a positive factor in both her and her client’s lives. “My first year in college, things kind of revolved around myself, in my own little world,” she said. “It’s kind of nice to get out of my little bubble and help someone else. It’s good to get outside yourself and to see things from a different perspective.”
Mardi Gras revelry a hoot by Mary Foster and Stacey Plaisance The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — Bathed in spring-like warmth and showered with trinkets, beads and music, New Orleans reveled in the excesses of Fat Tuesday. A seemingly endless stream of costumed marching groups and ornately decorated float parades led by make-believe royalty poured out of the Garden District, while the French Quarter filled up with thrill seekers expecting to see debauchery. And they did. Some in the Quarter had a sleepless night after Monday’s Lundi Gras prequel party. The drinking was in full swing again shortly after dawn, and with it came outrageous costumes and fleshflashing that would continue until police made their annual attempt to break up the merrymaking at midnight, when Lent begins. Tom White, 46, clad in a pink tutu, bicycled with his wife, Allison, to the French Quarter. “I’m the pink fairy this year,” he said. “Costuming is the real fun of Mardi Gras. I’m not too creative, but when you weigh 200 pounds and put on a tutu people still take your picture.” His wife was not in costume. “He’s disgraced the family

enough,” she said. Brittany Davies struggled with her friends through the morning, feeling the effects of heavy drinking from the night before. “They’re torturing me,” the Denver woman joked. “But I’ll be OK after a bloody mary.”
“I’m the pink fairy this year. Costuming is the real fun of Mardi Gras.” Tom White partier Indeed, the theme of the day was party hard and often. Wearing a bright orange wig, a purple mask and green shoes, New Orleans resident Charlotte Hamrick walked along Canal Street to meet friends. “I’ll be in the French Quarter all day,” Hamrick said. “I don’t even go to the parades. I love to take pictures of all the costumes and just be with my friends. It’s so fun.” Police reported no major incidents along the parade route. Across the globe, people
dressed up in elaborate costumes and partied the day away. In Rio de Janeiro, an estimated 850,000 tourists joined the city’s massive, five-day blowout. Meanwhile, the Portuguese, who have suffered deeply in Europe’s debt crisis, defied a government appeal to keep working. In New Orleans, the streets filled with hundreds of thousands of people. The predominantly AfricanAmerican Zulu krewe was the first major parade to hit the streets, shortly after 8 a.m. Most krewe members were in the traditional black-face makeup and the Afro wigs Zulu riders have sported for decades. They handed out the organization’s coveted decorated coconuts and other sought-after trinkets. In the oak-lined Garden District, clarinetist Pete Fountain led his Half-Fast Walking Club on its annual march to the French Quarter. Fountain, 82, gave a thumbs-up to start off and his band launched into “When the Saints Go Marching In” as they rounded the corner onto St. Charles Avenue shortly after 7 a.m. It was the 52nd time Fountain’s group has paraded for Mardi Gras. This year, the group wore bright yellow suits and matching pork pie hats for its theme, “Follow the Yellow Brick Road.”
