NM stations: Cuts won’t force us off air waves KNME: Proposed cuts more hot air than dead air by Barron Jones

Laurisa Galvan / Daily Lobo Community volunteer Rufus Cohen prepares to begin a radio broadcast in the KUNM studio Thursday. The Center for Public Broadcasting, which funds KUNM and other public broadcasting stations, is in danger of being cut from the federal budget.
The House of Representatives passed a bill that could leave Sesame Street and other public radio and television programs homeless. The House of Representatives in February voted 235-189 along party lines to eliminate federal funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and the 368 public television stations and 934 radio stations under its umbrella, including several New Mexico stations. The CPB will receive $430 million federal dollars in 2011. “We live in a day of 150 cable channels — 99 percent of Americans own a TV,” Rep. Doug Lamborn told an NPR affiliate. “We get Internet on our cell phones; we are in a day and age when we no longer need to subsidize broadcasting.” Rep. Lamborn (R-CO) introduced the legislation that will meet a Democratic majority who mostly supports the CPB. The United States Senate will vote on the measure March 18. Catherine Mortensen, an aide to Rep. Lamborn, told the Daily Lobo that the bill’s purpose is to protect the taxpayer and
reduce the budget deficit. She said the nation’s spending habits are not sustainable when the federal government borrows nearly 40 cents of every dollar it spends. “We believe it (CPB) is a nonessential program that wouldn’t be eliminated, just reduced,” Mortensen said. KNME General Manager Polly Anderson said her station receives a little more than 10 percent of its $10 million annual budget from the CPB. She said the cuts would limit the station’s ability to serve the community.

UNM representatives sifted through hundreds of art pieces Thursday to decide which ones to add to the University’s collection. Representatives from various campus departments attended an artwork selection meeting Thursday, choosing pieces from a 600piece assortment. UNM receives its funding as a lump sum, and departments take turns selecting artwork every three years, said Kelly Huber, project coordinator for New Mexico Arts in Public Places. “UNM has tons of money to spend here,” she said. “You can buy anything that you want, so I would advise buying a more expensive, really treasured piece instead of many little ones just to fill up space.” Zimmerman and Centennial libraries, the Health Sciences Center and UNM West campus received $50,000 of state money for artwork. The One Percent for Public Art Program, founded in 1986, gives each public building money to buy artwork that is equivalent to 1 percent of the building’s construction costs. Jonathon Abrams, former UNMH chief of cardiology and founder of the hospital’s Jonathan Abrams Art Gallery, was involved in the selection process. He said displaying quality art on

campus improves morale. “It makes a lot of people feel good when they see it,” Abrams said. “It may sound kind of hokey, but it is kind of an element.” UNM West campus Representative Beth Miller said artwork in common areas facilitates student success. “It definitely contributes to creating a positive environment for studying,” she said. “It changes the dynamic of the learning environment.” Huber presented a slideshow of paintings, photography, drawings, sculptures, media and mixed media for representatives to select from. “Everything here is pre-screened for quality,” she said. “The whole process takes a while; it is about three to four months before you see the artwork actually placed in the building.” Blank campus walls need artwork, said Chris Fenton of the HSC Art Program. “I’m sure students do notice and appreciate it,” she said. “We send out evaluations to patients, and a lot of the feedback is about the art. A lot of research is going on about the importance of art for cognitive benefit.” Abrams said he was overwhelmed by the array of artwork. “It is almost unfair to have to choose,” he said.

HAGERSTOWN, Md. — The death penalty is still possible for the Army private suspected of giving classified material to the anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks despite prosecutors’ promise not to recommend it, military law experts said Thursday. Military District of Washington commander Maj. Gen. Karl R. Horst could ignore the prosecutors’ recommendation and refer for trial as a capital offense the charge that Pfc. Bradley Manning aided the enemy, the experts said. In that event, a court-martial jury of at least 12 members could vote for execution if Manning were convicted. It would be unusual but not unheard of for the commander to ignore the recommendation, said Dwight Sullivan, a Marine Corps Reserve lawyer who blogs about military justice on CAAFlog.com. Jon W. Shelburne, who teaches at Roger Williams University in Bristol, R.I., said he hasn’t seen a commander override a prosecutor’s death-penalty recommendation in his 19 years as military judge advocate. The charge of aiding the enemy is among 22 new counts filed

Wednesday against Manning, a former intelligence analyst suspected of passing to WikiLeaks more than 250,000 confidential State Department cables, classified video of a deadly U.S. helicopter attack and a raft of Iraq and Afghanistan war logs. The video and thousands of the documents have been published on the WikiLeaks website.
“It’s supposed to be difficult to get the death sentence, and it is.” ~Dwight Sullivan Marine Corps Reserve Lawyer Horst, acting as the courtmartial convening authority, would decide which, if any, charges to refer for trial. He would make that determination after Manning’s Article 32 investigation, the military equivalent of a preliminary hearing or grand jury proceeding, which could begin in late May or early June. If Horst refers the charge of aiding the enemy as a noncapital offense, the maximum penalty would life without the possibility of parole, Shelburne said in a
teleconference with reporters. Sullivan said in a telephone interview that if the charge is referred as a capital offense, the government would face numerous hurdles to winning a death sentence. First, the jury’s guilty verdict would have to be unanimous, rather than the two-thirds majority required for conviction in a noncapital case. Then the jurors would all have to agree that there was an aggravating factor that outweighed any mitigating circumstances. Finally, the panel would have to vote unanimously for execution. The death sentence would then require approval by both the convening authority and the U.S. president. “It’s supposed to be difficult to get the death sentence, and it is,” Sullivan said. There has been just one military death sentence in the last 50 years. In July 2008, President George W. Bush approved the execution of Ronald A. Gray, a former Army cook convicted of rape and murder in 1988. The case is on appeal. The last military execution was carried out on April 13, 1961, when Army Pvt. John A. Bennett was hanged for rape and attempted murder.

False oil bidder faces prison, fine by Chi Chi Zhang Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY— An environmental activist was convicted Thursday of making $1.8 million in false oil and gas drilling bids at a federal auction in a case that became a cause celebre among avid supporters and Hollywood celebrities such as Robert Redford. Tim DeChristopher, 29, made the bids to run up the price of 13 oil-and-gas leases near Utah’s Arches and Canyonlands national parks and push the land beyond the reach of buyers. But in the end, he lacked the ability to cover his bids. It took a federal jury about five hours to convict him on two felony counts of interfering with and making false representations at a government auction. He faces up to 10 years in prison and a fine of $750,000 at his June 23 sentencing. DeChristopher remained stoic and resigned as the verdict was read, showing little emotion. Supporters, who filled more than half the courtroom, gasped and cried. “Nobody told me this battle would be easy,” he later told more than 50 emotional fellow activists on the courthouse steps. “Because of what you have done on the outside, it doesn’t matter what happened on the inside.” Supporter Maureen Simes, 43, of Salt Lake City, called the outcome a
CPB
mistake. “I hope this verdict will strengthen our cause,” the teary-eyed Simes said. Defense attorney Ron Yengich told reporters it was a fair trial and he hoped for leniency at DeChristopher’s sentencing, given his client has no previous criminal history.

“Nobody told me this battle would be easy.” ~Tim DeChristopher Environmental Activist “He’s never had any problem with the law,” Yengich said. DeChristopher simply wanted to raise awareness about aggressive drilling in pristine western areas, and had no malicious intent, the lawyer said. In closing arguments, however, U.S. Attorney John Huber said DeChristopher “derailed, disrupted and sabotaged” the December 2008 auction in the final days of the Bush administration. Assistant U.S. Attorney Scott Romney said the case was not about “Big Oil” or the federal government. DeChristopher didn’t deny disrupting the auction by posing as a bidder but said his initial intent was to raise the price of the leases closer to fair market value.

“We lose the ability to do local productions,” she said. “We lose the ability to provide education outreach services to parents, kids and teachers. It is those kinds of extras that connect us to the community, and to lose the ability to do those activities would be very detrimental.” Tim Graham, a Media Research Center representative, said that defunding the CPB would have no effect on public media organizations’ ability to stay on air. “It’s even possible that a full defunding would bring a surge in private contributions,” he said. “This happened to a lesser extent during the threat to CPB funding in 199596. The PBS/NPR infrastructure is very rich and entrenched. I cannot imagine these stations would die off the way, say, private newspapers have.” Anderson said losing the 10 percent would hurt KNME but it would not knock the station off the air. “We would lose all of our local

services,” she said. “There are smaller stations, including two stations in this state, that the CPB money makes up a nearly 40 to 50 percent of their operating budget.” Las Cruces PBS member station KRWG has a joint license and operates a television and radio station. Glen Cerny, the station’s general manager, said the television station receives about 35 percent of its funds from CPB, while the radio station relies on CPB for about 25 percent its budget. He said he could not speculate on the ramifications if Congress eliminates funding. “I think the threat is real, and we have a lot of work to do,” Cenry said. “If we don’t take it seriously, we are going to feel foolish at some point.” Graham said that the bill is a symbol of “political seriousness.” “I think it’s unlikely in the current Congress, with a Democraticcontrolled Senate and a Democratic president, that the CPB will be defunded,” he said.

from the web In Thursday’s letter, “Efficient, electric cars not norm because of nation’s oil addiction,” student Muhajir Romero criticizes the U.S. government’s political motivations for the country’s refusal to mass-produce oil-free cars. Online readers had this to say:
by ‘Ethel C. Fenig’ Posted Thursday
“As James Lewis noted, even liberals are beginning to express doubts about basic liberal delusions. The latest is Charles Lane of the Washington Post, who was literally hit by cold reality during Washington’s seemingly unusual snowy winter. (What? It snows in Washington? Must be global warming.) Stuck for six hours in traffic during a recent snowstorm it dawned on him: ‘I counted my blessings. The situation could have been worse, I realized: My fellow commuters and I could have been trying to make it home in electric cars, like the ones President Obama is constantly promoting, most recently in his State of the Union address …’”
by ‘Steve Chavez’ Posted Thursday
“Aren’t you digging your own graves? What other contribution to the world do Arab/Muslim countries have other than oil or jihadists? If we suddenly went to electric cars, all they’d have left to sell is sand. The last time I checked, sand doesn’t feed the masses! Come on Muhajir, what do they have but oil? Tourism, maybe, where women are abused, groped, raped or stoned? The UAE/ Dubai have the insight to what happens after oil, and they are investing in their tourism infrastructure, but what if they didn’t have the world’s tallest building, The Map Islands, and other man-made construction projects, would be incomplete if we went to electric cars. Would the U.S. still be blamed for your Muslim miseries when we don’t need oil?”

Letter SFRB doesn’t understand how COSAP benefits students Editor,
“Congratulations, Muhajir, you are officially the most frequently published UNM letter writer … Quite an accomplishment. You and the DL staff must be proud of yourselves for a seemingly endless string of inane antiAmerican letters. Bet neither of you will respond to anything posted in response either. What a freakin’ pathetic display of agendadriven ‘journalism,’ if it could even be called journalism.”

A UNM student just left my office. I spent about 40 minutes with him this afternoon listening as he told me about what he was going through with his heroin addiction. He had 14 days clean and was worried sick that the obsession to use would drive him back to his dealer and another cycle of use, withdrawal and messing up at school. After our talk, he thanked me and headed over to Student Health and Counseling to see about getting some longerterm help. I was glad I’d convinced him; he’ll find good people and ongoing help there. While talking to students about their or a friend’s addiction trouble isn’t something that appears in the “mission” statement at COSAP, it’s a regular, even daily, occurrence. So are the students who walk through the door asking for help with an assignment about alcoholism or for an interview with a public health professional for their University Honors class. I drop whatever I’m doing for those young people; I make it my priority. Students seek help in a variety of ways and COSAP’s support for them comes in a variety of ways, too — even in the way COSAP conducts a workshop for students who violate the campus alcohol/drug policy, which we try to do with respect and a sense of humor. COSAP works with a wide range of other organizations on and around campus to keep alcohol and other drug abuse from killing the hopes and dreams, and sometimes from taking the very lives of our students. We work with UNM Athletics, the Dean of Students, SHAC, our Greek community, Residence Life and others to make prevention a shared responsibility and to create the kind of campus that supports student success and well-being. In Monday’s Daily Lobo, a front-page
article by Hunter Riley provided details of the SFRB’s recommendations to President Schmidly for the distribution of student fees. In that article, Michael Thorning informed the readers that the SFRB left only one organization unfunded; the one request receiving no student fee support was The Campus Office of Substance Abuse Prevention — COSAP. This was sad news for me. As the author of the proposal and program manager for COSAP, I had spent a lot of limited resources writing that proposal and dealing with the changing picture regarding the hearings that resulted from the disagreements between ASUNM and GPSA.
Wouldn’t it be great to have the SFRB accommodate all of the organizations that asked for help? Even if it were at reduced levels to avoid increasing student fees? And with a staff of one and a temporary grant supported staff of one, I certainly could not afford to circulate student petitions as another group did. Our proposal was reasonable and reflected the degree to which serving students justified our need for student fee support. But what really stunned me was the way Michael Thorning, ASUNM Chief of Staff, explained the decision to leave the program out in the cold. He said that COSAP’s funding “should not come from student fees.” He said, “It was a state initiative that got put on the University and the University put it on the students.” To me, that comment sounds like he, and the SFRB he speaks for, feel that COSAP’s program is something inflicted on students rather than a program to serve students, as it certainly is. Of course Mr. Thorning amended that absurdity with what seemed to me a
somewhat patronizing quip: “It’s a great program with a lot of potential.” I can only say that after 20 years of COSAP’s service to students and 13 years of my own commitment to the program (with very little in the way of student fees asked for in return), that’s one cold shot in the back. Mr. Thorning did return my call requesting an explanation and said his statements were taken out of context. But words printed and read impact the UNM community’s perceptions; and in this case negatively. COSAP was established in 1992 as a result of a legislative imperative, but that fact has nothing to do with the current set of programs provided by COSAP or the services we render to students. Our proposal and our presentation made that perfectly clear, so I cannot imagine what prompted that remark, other than an attempt at an explanation of why all organizations requesting funding could not be provided for. COSAP would have been pleased to receive a fraction of what was requested and would have put it directly to use in programs for students. Wouldn’t it be great to have the SFRB accommodate all of the organizations that asked for help? Even if it were at reduced levels to avoid increasing student fees? I think the students we’ve worked with over the years and any others that are in any way familiar with our program would agree with that statement. As COSAP’s Program Manager, I will ask President Schmidly to reconsider the SFRB’s decision in light of what I feel was a serious mistake in judgment. And in the meantime, my staff of student employees and I at COSAP will continue to work on prevention programs oriented toward providing for student well-being and academic success. As we work for students, I only ask that students and the UNM community to support us in return. John Steiner COSAP Program Manager

Drew Gordon tries to block a shot from UNLV’s Quintrell Thomas at The Pit on Feb. 23. The Lobos close up the regular season against Air Force on Saturday after upsetting No. 3 BYU in Provo, Utah.
BYU win brings back bubble talk by Ryan Tomari
rtomari@unm.edu How big was the UNM men’s basketball team’s win against No. 3 BYU? Try gigantic. UNM’s 82-64 victory Wednesday in Provo, Utah, dampened the Cougars’ now-slim chances for a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament, and for the time being, didn’t allow them to clinch the Mountain West Conference regular-season championship. It also put the Lobos back in NCAA tournament bubble talk. Head coach Steve Alford said he isn’t worried about who is and isn’t on the bubble. “We have no idea because we take it one game at a time,” he said. “The guys are laughing because I told them for three weeks that everybody talks about the NCAA tournament and bubbles. That thing changes by the hour, because teams lose and teams win. I just told them, ‘Hey, there are going to be teams in the country that get hot at the right time.’” The Cougars were without their third-leading scorer Brandon Davies, who was dismissed from the team for violating BYU’s code of conduct. But it might not have mattered, since the Lobos hit their shots at the Marriott Center. The Lobos made 44.6 percent of their shots while the Cougars shot 34 percent for the game. Alford said basketball is simple; it’s about scoring. “If you look at UNLV, that (came down to) the last play of the game, and if you look at Wyoming, that’s the last play of the game,” Alford said. “The guys have played well. It’s just about when you make shots. It makes things a little bit easier, and we made shots so it didn’t have to come down to the wire.” Guard Phillip McDonald’s
performance against the Cougars should at least give him a shot at earning an MWC Player of the Week award. The junior guard made 9-of-14 field goals and drained five 3-pointers. He led all UNM scorers with 26 points. McDonald said the reason UNM earned its fourth straight victory over BYU was because of something else. “We did a good job of preparing for this game, and I think that’s why we shocked them a little bit,” he said. “But I felt very confident, and I’ve been working on my shot, and I was ready to go. I was being a lot more aggressive than usual.” The Lobos play their last home game of the season against Air Force, and it will be point guard Dairese Gary’s senior night. Leading up to BYU, Gary was a key component in Lobo victories. Against TCU he scored 32 points, 23 during the final 9:33. He didn’t make a field goal against BYU, but played stellar defense. Gary, the all-time MWC assists leader, said Saturday’s game will be surreal for him. “I think it’s going to be an emotional night,” he said. “I mean, it’s my last game in The Pit. I keep saying that I’m starting to feel like Ro (Martinez), because he was talking to me about this. This is all coming back and starting to feel like déjà vu a little bit.”

Long ago, the New York Knicks were an esteemed franchise. They hadn’t won an NBA title since 1973, but the Knicks nevertheless went to two championships during the 1990s. Yet in a city that has a perpetually shortterm memory, that was a long, long time ago. And it was also long before swingman Carmelo Anthony came to town. Now that he’s there, the city is abuzz: After years of idling, could this be the organization’s Great Anthony Awakening? As with everything, only time will tell. After all, New York isn’t far removed from its ever-present past. It was more recently that the Knicks, a self-contained ecosystem of constant drama and chronic underachievement, discovered a way to put the city that never sleeps into a deep, bear-like slumber. They became the excuse that New Yorkers needed to indulge in the city’s endless entertainment district. Madison Square Garden became the last enduring symbol of a forgotten empire — a historic time capsule for New Yorkers to remember when once upon a time Allan Houston lobbed a Game 5 running dagger into the Miami Heat’s swollen chests at their arena to help propel the Knicks to the NBA Finals; the building where, for the longest time, Reggie Miller couldn’t win a playoff game. Washington, D.C., might have the West Wing, but New York had the Ewing — for better or worse. Then there was John Starks and the unforgettable 1998 playoffs series footage of the ostentatious Jeff Van Gundy clinging to Alonzo Mourning’s leg while he was involved in a spat with Larry Johnson. Once upon a time, Gotham City had tradition. Once upon a time, Gotham City had a successful basketball team. Once upon a time, Gotham City had heroes. And then
they left — Houston lost to retirement and Ewing and Starks traded elsewhere. Years passed, and Manhattan, the basketball borough, quickly devolved into a land more lost than the City of Atlantis. The Knicks’ organization desperately grasped at relevancy only to come up empty-handed. Between the nostalgic years and now, the Knicks became the poster child for overzealous buyers in a sellers market, snatching up thought-to-be prime-estate players only to find out later they weren’t even worth half their market value.
Washington, D.C., might have the West Wing, but New York had the Ewing — for better or worse. Led by the now-departed, outof-control general manager Isiah Thomas, the Knicks handed bloated contracts to Stephon Marbury, Eddy Curry and Jamal Crawford, to name a few. Needless to say the investment didn’t pay off: They had the highest payroll and the fewest wins at the end of the 200506 season. Never mind that the Knicks haven’t won a postseason contest since 2001. Playoffs? If we’re talking about playoffs, the last time New York made them was in 2004, and the Knicks were promptly dispatched by the New Jersey Nets. Except the recent Anthony trade has rekindled hopes that New York is on the verge of a long-overdue renaissance. With a prolific scorer (Anthony), a paint presence (Amare Stoudemire), a reliable point guard who has played in 96 postseason games (Chauncey Billups) and an up-and-coming rookie (Landry Fields) at its disposal, the Knicks seem poised to make a playoff push, with some mad-hat-
ter aficionados claiming they will go as far as the Eastern Conference finals. Is this just trite nostalgia, a doesn’t-come-often chance for New Yorkers to relive the HoustonEwing glory days? Can Anthony and Co. truly lead the Knicks out of their postseason hibernation? The Thomas-Auncha Browne Saunders sexual harassment case might have long ago concluded, but the jury’s still out on the Knicks, who are just 3-2 since the Anthony trade. Fans have supporting evidence to make the contender-pretender argument: The Knicks lost to the historically bad LeBron Jamesless Cleveland Cavaliers but also upended South Beach Sidekick’s current team, the Miami Heat, in a two-day span. No one’s questioning the Knicks’ prodigious ability to burn up the nets: They’re second in the NBA in scoring, averaging 106.2 points per game. But it’s hard to neglect the fact that they’re also giving up 105.5 points per game, which checks in at 27th. This aversion to defense doesn’t bode well for the Knicks. And Anthony has never been accused of playing defense, something that frustrated his Denver coach, George Karl. What’s more, come playoff time — if the Knicks hold out long enough to make — they’ll face a challenging gauntlet, thanks to the East’s recent talent re-up. Undoubtedly, Boston, Chicago, Orlando and Miami will be a part of the mix — each presenting their own unique matchup problems. But for now, the ride has been refreshing. Still, it’s hard to say whether the Great Anthony Awakening will lead to a parade down the Canyon of Heroes. In the short term, at least for the foreseeable future, we can be assured that the onceesteemed franchise will no longer be a present-day punching bag. But it’s too soon to conclude that the empire will strike back.
