Survey: Faculty losing faith in system UNM central administration and faculty routinely quarrel, and a survey released Wednesday proves there is discontent over budget and communication issues between the two parties. A six-month survey conducted by Research and Polling Inc. concluded more than twothirds of faculty is dissatisfied with their role in the University’s shared governance system, and 42 percent of faculty said in the survey that they are “very dissatisfied.” “The survey represents the feelings of the faculty over the last few years,” Faculty Senate President Richard Wood said. “It shows how strongly the faculty and staff have felt about the University’s need to get back on track to our academic mission.” The survey, completed online by 719 faculty and 1,627 staff members, found that 79 percent of faculty disagrees that academic interest guides financial decisions at UNM; 81 percent feel they have no influence over budget development and only 5 percent believe an atmosphere of trust exists between the faculty and administration. “I think there is nothing surprising. The results are somber,” Provost Suzanne Ortega said. “The good news is that we didn’t wait until the results came in to address the issues in the survey.” Recommendations from the survey include a clearer definition of shared governance, further transparency from the central administration, an assessment of communication mechanisms between staff, faculty and the administration, and overall cooperation between the three groups.
Ninety-one percent of faculty said participation in shared governance is a worthwhile responsibility for faculty, prompting a positive direction for both groups to cooperate change. One example is the formation of a strategic advisory committee, which met in June to begin deliberating budget proposals for next spring. “We’ve been very involved in recent months to create a strategic budgeting process that involves the faculty leadership, executive vice president of administration, the deans and the provost, all under the final budgetary authority of the president and the regents,” Wood said. President David Schmidly said in a statement that the University is doing its part to include all parties in discussions. “We continue our commitment to maximum participation,” he said. “However, the final responsibility of the budget, as stipulated in regents’ policy, lies with the Office of the President.” Having a seat at the table during budget talks is one way faculty can leverage the the survey results, Ortega said, and it will be important in
figuring out what shared governance actually means. “We are working to develop a strategic role for clarifying roles of responsibilities that further define shared governance,” she said. “How do we make sure faculty and staff are part of budget considerations?” The faculty is content to be included during the longer budget timeline period. In previous years, the regents showed a completed budget and the faculty had little or no time to propose changes, Wood said. “We are meeting regularly with Andrew Cullen of the Office of the VP for Administration to look at how the next budget is put together,” he said. “We haven’t been brought in this early before. We have asked to be part of the budget process from the beginning, and so far that is happening.” Wood said budget priorities for the faculty are clear: protect students and the University’s research mission.

The Board of Regents Finance and Facilities Committee faced the looming possibility of University-wide budget cuts, new construction and increased tuition during its Wednesday morning meeting. Richard Wood, president of the Faculty Senate, said proposed 3.2 percent budget cuts have departments shaking in their boots and looking for ways to avoid cutting jobs. “There’s nothing we can do with these budget cuts that will not affect the students, but right now there are strategies being pursued,” Wood said. “We are raising class sizes from 40 students to 60. That really affects the kind of teaching the instructor can do and the type of learning that can happen.” With possible budget cuts ahead, a tuition hike could be a solution in order to continue funding projects. But when taking any action Regent Jamie Koch said departments should accept proposed cuts and then re-assess the situation. “I think that we should take the 3.2 percent cut across the board for everybody. I think we should not look at a tuition increase,” Koch said. Lazaro “Laz” Cardenas, ASUNM president, said a tuition hike should be avoided at all possible costs. “I hope, personally, that there won’t be any tuition raises or increases this year, but we are facing some pretty

Dead suspect linked to slayings Associated Press VALLEJO, Calif. — A murder suspect who led officers on a highspeed chase with his dead girlfriend in the passenger seat is a central figure in the investigation of at least four killings, authorities said Wednesday. Efren Valdemoro, 38, was shot and killed by California Highway Patrol officers Tuesday night after refusing to drop a meat cleaver, CHP spokesman Sgt. Trent Cross said. The chase for Valdemoro, who had been wanted in the death of a 73-year-old man last weekend, ended in a Richmond strip mall. In the passenger seat of the car, officers found the body of Valdemoro’s girlfriend, Cross said. The woman — identified by the coroner as Cindy Tran, 46 — had suffered “pretty serious head and neck injuries,� Cross said. The confrontation with officers in the eastern San Francisco Bay area suburb happened as police in Vallejo — about 17 miles to the northeast — were investigating the grisly discovery of two decomposing bodies in a home. One of the victims, Segundina Allen, 63, was an acquaintance of Valdemoro who had allowed him to stay in her home on occasion, but friends said she had grown fearful of him. Allen and her longtime friend, Marcaria Smart, 60, were reported missing Saturday and hadn’t been seen since Aug. 25. Investigators on the missing-persons case searched Allen’s home Tuesday afternoon and found the bodies — one in the backyard and one inside the house, said Vallejo police

after initially allowing him to stay with her. She and Rittenhouse had asked Smart to change their locks twice in recent weeks to keep out their unwanted house guest. “This guy would sneak into the house, almost like a ghost,� he said. Allen also called Smart for help a couple weeks ago when Valdemoro showed up at the house. He said he drove over, grabbed the man and forced him to leave. The last time Smart saw his wife on Aug. 25, he told her: “If you see this guy, be careful.� A neighbor of the couple, Antonio Nicolas, said that at one point, Allen and Rittenhouse had posted a sign on their front door saying, “Efren, don’t come back or we’ll call the police.� He said he sometimes saw Valdemoro outside late at night, often saying he’s looking for his cat. Nicolas described those conversations as “nonsense.� “Some days it would look like that he was out of his mind,� Nicolas said. ___ Thanawala reported from San Francisco.

tough times,� he said. “Budgets cuts are there, though, and that is what we are facing. I truly and honestly believe that everyone is working together to get things right.� With the proposed construction of a new $4 million Lobo baseball stadium on south campus, Cardenas said some might question where UNM’s priorities lie, but pitting one department against another does little to solve the problem. “I look at this as we are all in this together,� he said. “There is no reason to put one person up against another or one department on another. I think out of this meeting the situation that we are in is that students were on the top on this one. They were the priority.� The bulk of the stadium funding will come from 2010 severance tax bonds, which cover $2 million of the project, while private donors

spokesman Lt. Abel Tenorio. They also found chemicals used to make explosives in the home. Allen’s husband, Charles Rittenhouse, 72, was arrested on suspicion of explosives possession and was being questioned in the women’s deaths, Tenorio said. He declined to comment on Rittenhouse’s connection to the discovery of the bodies, saying “we’re still trying to connect the dots on that.� Tenorio also said the link to Valdemoro also was being probed. Authorities tried to stop Valdemoro’s vehicle on Tuesday night because he was wanted in the killing of Ricardo Sales, who was found beaten to death in a Hercules home Saturday. Valdemoro was seen fighting with the elderly man and his son the weekend before, according to Hercules police, who were called to break up the fight. The son, Frederick Sales, 35, has been reported missing. “Given the nature of the situation, as well as the growing number of murders here, there is concern for his safety,� said Hercules police spokeswoman Michelle Harrington. Police said Valdemoro was seen driving a white Cadillac Escalade near the scene of the Hercules killing, and the vehicle was registered to Allen. The Saleses had been renting rooms in the home owned by Tran, Harrington said. The Contra Costa County coroner planned an autopsy on Tran for Wednesday afternoon, and the Solano County coroner scheduled autopsies on the women in the Vallejo home for Thursday. Joe Smart, 63, whose wife was among the victims, said Allen had grown scared of Valdemoro
have chipped in $1 million and the remaining money will be raised through fundraising. Approval for the baseball field is still pending and will be reevaluated when final figures are calculated. “I think that one of the main issues is if it will come from student fees,� Cardenas said. “In these economic times, using the student fees to renovate the baseball field would be inappropriate because other academic programs are being cut right now.� Budget cut decisions will be finalized Sept. 14th at the full Board of Regents meeting, but until then options will be raised and evaluated, Wood said. “This is very painful; there isn’t an easy way to do this.� he said. “These are hard decisions, and it’s people of good will — the regents, the administrators and faculty — working on this.�

asked about tenure-track faculty hiring, the strategic budget process, the criteria for evaluating the administration next year, and the academic prioritization of every program at the university.� Because the budget process takes place at an earlier date, it will be important for the regents and provost to implement a better line of communication with the faculty and staff, Ortega said. “I think communication is a process you work on and continue to move forward,� she said. In response to the backlash, Ortega said she has implemented open office hours for faculty and staff, monthly lunch meetings with staff, semi-annual faculty meetings and monthly communication strategy planning with department chairs and faculty leadership, and quarterly newsletters.

More parking lots undermine goal of climate neutrality by Danny Hernandez
Daily Lobo guest columnist Shortly after becoming UNM President, Dr. David Schmidly signed UNM onto the American College & University Presidents’ Climate Commitment. The commitment is to achieve “climate neutrality as soon as possible.” Given that transportation creates about a quarter of our carbon emissions, one would think decreasing UNM’s transportation-oriented carbon footprint would be a high priority. So why does Parking and Transportation Services, the department charged with transportation planning, continue to build more parking structures? Everyone agrees that the streets and available parking in and around UNM are often burdened. There’s a theory in transportation and land use planning that different housing densities lend themselves to different modes of transportation. The lower housing densities, like most of Albuquerque, lend themselves to single occupancy vehicle (SOV) travel. Ultra-high densities, like the island of Manhattan, lend themselves to more human-scale transportation modes like walking, taxi and transit. The middle densities, like the UNM, Nob Hill and Downtown areas lend themselves to transportation modes that reduce congestion, but can get you further faster than walking. In this middle ground transportation options like transit, bicycles, in-line-skates, skateboards, scooters and motorcycles work best. Just watch Central Avenue at noonday, fourlane de facto parking lot or ask the Frontier owner if he has enough parking for the lunch crowd for proof of how car un-friendly middle density land use can be. Conversely, the congestion brought to the University area by more cars than the area could comfortably handle makes it less pedestrian and bicycle friendly for those of us who know better than to drive a car around here during peak traffic hours. If you live in those lower densities, up in the heights or on the west side, you need a car. But when you bring your car into town you’re coming into an area that, by its very nature, is not car friendly. John Dewey once said, “A problem well-de-

fined is a problem half-solved.” The thing is that not everyone agrees on the solution(s) because not everyone agrees on how to define the problem. Whereas I have always seen this situation as a transportation problem, UNM has always seen this situation as a parking problem. Therein, as they say, lies the rub. Part of the reason for our disparate views is mindset. I’ve always lived in high– to-mid-density areas and use bicycles, motorcycles and mass transit as my main transportation modes while (I’ve always
presumed) the people who run parking have more of a car mindset. The fact that the department was called “Parking and Transportation Services” is a giveaway. The other reason for our disparate views is the fact that PATS funds its operations and some of its capital improvements with the parking and permit fees it collects from you. Successfully dealing with the transportation problem means fewer cars, which means fewer revenues. Anyone else see the conflict? But there’s more.

My roommate walked in wearing a wife beater and a pair of worn jeans. He was carrying a bike over his shoulders, and as I got up and introduced myself, I thought he was somewhat unlike how I had pictured him before we’d met. Thinking back to our phone conversation roughly a week before college, I distinctly remember two things: First off, he spoke in such a proper manner that it made me ashamed of my own vernacular. The other, more important topic in our short exchange was that he was bringing a French press coffee maker. With the French press coffee maker in mind, I crafted a caricature of my roommate in my head before our first meeting. He was probably a scrawny white kid from Colorado. He probably wore polo shirts two sizes too small and faded, waist-hugging, Hollister jeans, most likely complemented by a white belt. He was probably someone who had been sheltered by his parents for most of his teenage life. I would probably have to mount a

ing structures may alleviate, but not solve, the parking problem, but more parking structures will exacerbate the transportation problem by attracting more cars that will continue to overburden the streets in surrounding communities and reduce the bicycle and pedestrian friendliness of the area while increasing UNM’s carbon footprint. So why is UNM continuing to build more parking structures?
You can’t judge a man by his French press
Pat Lohmann
Managing editor
Over the years, PATS has contracted a company called Walker Parking Consultants to solve its parking problem. If how you define a problem defines its solutions, then which consultant you hire further defines those solutions. Walker designs, builds and recommends parking structures as a solution to parking problems. With “transportation” twice removed, it’s no wonder that every Walker study recommends more parking structures to be built on the UNM main campus. The thing is that more park-
television somewhere in our dorm room, because, as I pictured it, my roommate’s time would be equally partitioned between making sure his hair was that “just got out of bed look which I actually spent two hours on” and watching MTV’s The Real World. First assumptions are always hilarious. The first week, I learned that my roommate didn’t watch TV. He listened to Tom Waits. He loves buying clothes from thrift stores. He enjoys street art; he shaved his head on the first day of college; he was completely independent (more than I could hope to become in the next two years), and despite receiving a full out-of-state scholarship, his major is “undecided,” because he hadn’t even planned on going to college. Last weekend, he took a bus from Albuquerque to Taos and then caught the Rail Runner, despite having been in New Mexico for only a week. And when I asked him about Hollister, he replied, “I walked by a Hollister store once in the mall, and then I smelled it. I never went in.” He did, however, drink an ungodly amount of coffee. In college, no one fits into any one clique
neatly. Unlike high school, where the kids who liked theater usually hung around other kids who liked theater, college seems to be all about individuality, with the exception of that convocation ceremony where all freshmen are required to attend dressed in red UNM T-shirts. I see few of my classmates from high school walking around main campus, and, more often than not, they are with the same friends they were with back in the land of eight-hour school days and mandatory physical education. But I think now is as good a time as any to diversify. I have no sense of balance, so I get on a new friend’s longboard and learn, injuring my leg in the process. I am skinny, so I go to the gym. I don’t know how to swing dance, so I take advantage of the free dance lessons at the Johnson Center. A final thought: College life is about education, but it also molds and shapes you into the adult you will be once you get that bachelor’s degree. Try everything in order to find your place. As the Brazilian exchange students who live across the hall from me would say, “It’s pretty much good, yes?”

Show cracks art scene’s glass ceiling by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu
The musical kitty cats of Albuquerque will finally have a chance to strut their stuff in a night of performances dedicated to women in the arts and the inner power that fuels their talent. “Gatas y Vatas� is the brainchild of Marisa DeMarco, a former Daily Lobo editor-in-chief. She was inspired by Titwrench, a women’s festival in Denver, to create something similar in Albuquerque. Taking place Sept. 4 at the Kosmos Coffee House, the night will feature female solo artists from Albuquerque and Denver, as well as an omnivorous potluck that everyone is invited to contribute to. The name was carefully chosen to stimulate the imagination, provoking images of strength and confidence in females, musician Gena Lawson said. “The literal translation is ‘female cats’ and ‘thugged-out women,’ but then it goes deeper into feminism and being more confident and hardcore,� she said. “You could even say it’s about the lady caves of women.� Emma Crane, a musician, said that
the music scene primarily spotlights men, and she saw this as an opportunity to show what women are capable of. “The scene pretty much everywhere is male-dominated,� she said. “I think it’s good to get some of these women together to do some kind of musical witchcraft for a night.� Performers will mix a variety of genres, including rap, experimental, folk, DJ, classical pop and avantgarde. Lawson said the lack of an allencompassing genre serves to eliminate labels associated with certain genres. “A lot of genres breed classism or racism, and we’re trying to abolish that.� Musician Mauro Kemmerer said this kind of show hasn’t been done before. “It’s a psychedelic show-andtell for the public brought to you by amazing women who wanted to share, hangout and be themselves for a night,� she said. Kemmerer said she expects a male audience, as well, since her performance experience has shown men often react strongly to female performances.
“I think they’re the ones that are most blown away,� she said. “It’s like a surprised, sort of pan-over-the-head reaction, and I think they like that.� Stripping down the music to focus on the ideas and talents of individuals is meant to show attendees that it is possible to encourage more involvement in the art community, specifically what Lawson described as a do-it-yourself scene. “We’re trying to get that (DIY scene) pumped up. We want to see more performers instead of seeing the same thing. Hopefully, we inspire people to try and do stuff like this on their own,� Lawson said. “We really want to get more people to open up and not be afraid to show whatever talent they have.�
Sadly, the novel is about as deep as an episode of Scrubs in its examination of the human question in the medical world. Hovercraft is a lot like Scrubs’ Dr. Dorian, actually. Often, he is distracted by daydreams and struggles to come to terms with his emotional attachment to his patients. Unlike Dorian, however, Hovercraft’s humanity holds him back as a doctor. Even if Hovercraft’s search for answers to the human question come up empty, his bleak perspective on emergency medicine comes across as superiorly realistic compared to any other media portrayal of medicine. The novel’s Albuquerque setting allows it to explore Catholic imagery
and symbolism in a way that seems relevant. But the novel isn’t entirely orthodox: Hovercraft’s Trinity is Jesus Christ, Bob Dylan and Plato. These three characters pepper the novel with probing questions that, even if Fleming doesn’t develop them, are at least stimulating to the reader. Still, the novel has its problems, and one of the biggest lies in its similes and metaphors. They’re are not complex, and, for the most part, they are actually quite easy to understand for the average university student. Problem is, there are far too many of them. They clutter the page like black paint splattered across a

The first novel written by James Fleming, an assistant professor at UNM’s School of Medicine, strips the dramatized action that typifies ER units shows. The novel’s main character and narrator is Hovercraft, a new doctor who at 43 years old finds himself constantly doubting his abilities. As he makes his rounds and attends to patients, Hovercraft’s introspections explore what it means to be New Mexican and what it means to be a human in the medical world.

Building a resilient society is difficult for any community, but the Albuquerque Cultural Conference is finding ways to make society better. This year’s theme is “Crisis, Community and Performance: Building a Resilient Society,� and it will be held Sept. 3-6. Amanda Sutton, one of the event organizers, said people are living in a time of political oppression. “People are censored and there are drug wars,� she said. “Performance means seeking creative means to improve the world and make a better change.� Panels start Saturday and feature hot topics such as the Arizona immigration bill, the economy, and education and arts funding, said John Crawford, director of the conference. “We are trying to show that there are ways to come back from hard times. People can find ways to reconstitute themselves and start over,� he said. The conference, sponsored by New Mexico Arts, the McCune Foundation and the New Mexico Humanities Council, provides an outlet for people to speak with others who share their social struggles in the form of folk songs and poetry performances.
Crawford said this year’s conference is crucial to the community because of the current economic slump. “It relates to the American dream,� Crawford said. “The American dream has to do with potential. Everyone has potential. This conference is just a way to encourage it.� Crawford worked with Sutton to promote books and authors who write multicultural poetry, Sutton said. “We hope to create a forum where people can connect and learn from one another’s experiences and be active in their communities,� she said. Sutton said she hopes the conference draws a large crowd for the the community’s sake. “It’s great to meet so many great people who are active in all the communities,� she said. “It’s great to see how everyone connects.

‘Old Man Gloom’ prepares to burn again by Tricia Remark tremark@unm.edu
Kids and adults of all ages swarmed a Santa Fe warehouse Tuesday night and worked tirelessly — stuffing long shredded paper into a 50-foot, wood and wire structure almost as big as the room itself. And no, it wasn’t for the free pizza provided later that night. It was to participate in the making of Zozobra, an 86-year-long Santa Fe tradition. On Sept. 9, Zozobra will go up in flames, burning away everything that was a source of gloom from the past year, said Cassandra Romero, a Santa Fe resident. “For me, it signifies fall — getting rid of everything bad from the year and starting new,” she said. “I actually celebrate it more than I would New Year’s. I always think of it as a new start.” Romero said she and her children helped assemble Zozobra’s body Tuesday night because it’s a fun way to do community service. The Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe sponsors the annual event, and this is Zozobra’s 86-year anniversary, according to the Zozobra website. Proceeds from ticket sales fund scholarships, youth projects and camp fees for physically challenged kids. Ray Sandoval, head pyrotechnician and face artist, said Kiwanis hopes to raise $250,000 for youth in need this year. “Zozobra allows you to look back at the past and remember the things you grew up with — those traditions you have,” he said. “But, at the same time, we’re giving money through scholarships to our youth, so we’re looking to the future.” Beth Cammarata, Santa Fe
Robert Maes / Daily Lobo Santa Fe High School’s Key Club gathered to create “Zozopops” during Stuff Night. Key Clubs from schools across the Santa Fe area gather every year to participate in the event.

Indian School Key Club sponsor, said the money raised from Zozobra will help many of the underprivileged students she works with. “At my school, almost all the students are ‌ at poverty level or below, so they can’t afford to go on trips for leadership training and things like that,â€? she said. “The money from Kiwanis’ Zozobra helps them do that.â€? Even those who have never been to the burning event should attend, Cammarata said. “I think they should just come, sit on the field and see what happens,â€? she said. “When it gets dark and this all comes together, it’s just crazy, fun and spooky all wrapped up in one.â€? Sandoval said he has been involved in the Zozobra-making process since he was 6 years old and has seen
some unique things burned inside the hollow puppet. People can choose to burn almost anything inside Old Man Gloom, he said. The Kiwanis Club also collects “gloomies,� or little pieces of paper with bad memories, to put inside Zozobra. Sandoval said a wedding dress was the craziest thing he saw someone burn. “A woman walked in on her sister and her husband having an affair, so she gave us the wedding dress,� he said. “Then she took the photo album, and all the people she liked — she cut them out. Then she put the album in Zozobra and burned it. We get old love letters, mortgage notes — someone even gave us a cast.� Sandoval said he has constructed the puppet’s face for 22 years and has

run into challenges trying to make every year unique. “Zozobra has to look like Zozobra, but nobody wants this year’s to look like last year’s,� he said. “The expression is very important. You can go very quickly from something that’s gloomy to a clown.� If you think Zozobra is over after it has burned to the ground, think again. Ray Valdez, Zozobra event producer, said the Zozobra team starts to plan for next year immediately after the celebration ends. “Within 10 to five minutes that the lights come on, we are critiquing it and starting on next year,� Valdez said. “We are roasting marshmallows on his flaming corpse and talking about how we can fix it.�

SALT LAKE CITY — The Mormon church says it has changed its genealogical database to better prevent the names of Jews killed in Nazi concentration camps from being submitted for posthumous baptism by proxy. In a joint statement issued Wednesday, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and a coalition of Jewish leaders said a new computer system and policy changes related to the practice should resolve a yearslong disagreement over the baptisms. Mormons believe posthumous baptism by proxy provides an opportunity for deceased persons to receive the Gospel in the afterlife. Baptisms are performed in Mormon temples with members immersing themselves in a baptismal pool as proxies for others. The names used in the ceremonies are drawn from a church-run genealogical database. Faithful Mormons use the practice primarily to have their ancestors baptized into the 180-year-old church and believe the ceremonies reunite families in the afterlife. But the practice also includes proxy rites for others around the world from all faith traditions. The church also believes departed souls can accept or reject the baptismal rites in the afterlife and contends the offerings are not intended to offend anyone. Jews are offended by the idea that Mormons are trying to alter the religion of Holocaust victims, who were murdered because of their religion. In 1995, the church inked an agreement with the New York City-

based American Gathering of Holocaust Survivors that prevented Mormons from performing baptisms or other rites for Holocaust victims, except in the very rare instances when they have living descendants who are Mormon. The church also agreed to remove the names of Holocaust victims already in the massive database. Database monitoring since then, however, has found that the agreement had failed to prevent both the submission of names and the baptismal rites from continuing. That sparked a dispute between the Mormons and the American Gathering over a breech of the agreement. The Jewish group withdrew from discussions with the church in 2008, saying the issue could not be resolved. Church officials say conversations were renewed last year after a coalition of Jewish rabbis and community leaders led by former New York Attorney General Robert Abrams were invited to Salt Lake City to tour a newly constructed temple and its downtown genealogy library to better understand the process. Under new church polices, members will be required to certify names submitted to the database for baptism. Further safeguards include monitoring those names for submissions that don’t meet policy standards and the removal of records, church spokesman Michael Purdy said in story posted on a church-owned newspaper’s website. Abrams, who discussed the baptisms issue with American Gathering leader Ernest Michel before talking with Mormon leaders, said he believes the Mormon church is sincere in trying to address
Jewish concerns. Abrams said church leaders have assured him that members who fail to comply with church baptism policies will face sanctions that include losing their access to church temples. “They have made this extraordinary exception to the doctrine for Holocaust victims,” Abrams told The Associated Press on Wednesday. “Their doctrine seeks to offer baptism to the souls of all people who have ever lived on the face of the earth and one grouping has been carved out. That is an act of extraordinary sensitivity and commitment, which is understood and appreciated by the Jewish community.” A telephone message left at Michel’s office in New York City was not immediately returned Wednesday. New Jersey-based Jewish genealogy expert Gary Mokotoff, who was part of the American Gathering group that had negotiated with the church, said the rules and safeguards will correct past problems — if they are enforced. Past promises of reprimands and the removal of names have not always been kept and recent checks of the database by independent Salt Lake City researcher, Helen Radkey, have found baptisms were performed for Holocaust victims as recently as May, he said. “This has been going on so long that you have to be suspicious,” said Mokotoff. “Qualified Mormons have access to the complete database so they can do proper temple work, there should be some way Jewish people can confirm that they are abiding by the 1995 agreement.”
Trauma ICU and the Titanic. The novel’s best metaphor is the way Hovercraft constantly compares himself to Christ. As a doctor, it is significant that he sees himself not as the Christ of Bethesda, but as the Christ of Golgotha. His failure as a doctor lies in his attempts to save souls, rather than lives. The novel’s successful doctors are able to separate the life from the soul. Hovercraft cannot, and therefore he cannot thrive in the medical world. Ultimately, Hovercraft is a failure as a doctor, but the novel itself is a success. If readers can get past the plethora of tired similes and
underdeveloped metaphors, Tengo Sed provides a fresh, realistic look into the world of the Trauma ICU.
from PAGE 5
canvas. Because there are so many similes and metaphors, most of the similes feel forced, and most of the metaphors are underdeveloped. Early in the novel, for example, Fleming introduces a character named TA Pizza who is “almost like Achilles.” Later, a rival is introduced in another doctor, Hector. Fleming sets the stage for an epic battle, but does not deliver. Fleming’s Achilles and Hector never raise a spear against each other.
