Search ﬁrm partner aids at-risk students

UNCONVENTIONAL CANVASES

by Charlie Shipley

charlieshipley84@gmail.com The front man of UNM’s presidential search said he’s seen firsthand the difference education can make. Alberto Pimentel, a managing partner of Storbeck, Pimentel and Associates, grew up in east Los Angeles, an area notorious for its poverty and high crime rates. English wasn’t Pimentel’s first language, and he and his siblings were the first in their family to go to college. “Many of the guys you grow up with end up in jail, in gangs or dead,” he said. “As a young man, you look and you say ‘this isn’t right.’ … I helped at-risk kids that were brothers and sisters and nephews and nieces of the guys I hung out with.” Pimentel said it was the need to give back that kept him in the field,

and the ability to help students with similar backgrounds to his is something he values. After receiving degrees from California State University, Point Loma Nazerene University and Harvard University, Pimentel said he returned to his roots to help atrisk K-12 students. “I represent a lot of public universities that serve a diverse population and provide first-generation college students the opportunity to advance,” he said. “Those are important to me.” UNM spokesperson Karen Wentworth said that Storbeck, Pimentel & Associates was selected to head the presidential search by a Request for Proposal (RFP) process. The committee aims to select a new president for the University by June 2012.

Pegasus Global Holdings, an international technology development firm, announced plans to build an uninhabited city in New Mexico designed to test self-driving cars, smart energy grids and other new technologies. “Our center is unique,” Pegasus CEO Robert Brumley said. “Up until this time, these proving grounds have been government-owned and contract-operated. This is contractor-owned, contractor-operated where the government is buying services and access to the facility.” Brumley met with the heads of UNM’s IT department, business school and engineering school in July. “UNM will have a very big role to play in the next few months,” he said. Douglas M. Brown, dean of Anderson School of Management, said he met with Brumley and local attorney John Salazar from the Rodey Law Firm at a meeting where Pegasus presented its project. Brown said Brumley didn’t address a specific role for UNM, but he said the project presented research and job creation possibilities. “My principle motivation is to try to find internships and good permanent jobs for our students,” Brown said. “Some (projects) might lend themselves to business professors, but I suspect more would be in engineering, hard sciences of medical research. I hope it materializes and provides the economic boost and educational and employment opportunities we need.” Last Monday, Pegasus released a statement announcing the start of a five-month study to evaluate the costs and benefits of the future

research facility and determine where in New Mexico the facility will be built. Pegasus has deemed this its “Sandbox project,” and the facility, which will be known as the Center for Innovation, Testing and Evaluation, represents a new era in the way research is developed, Brumley said. Pegasus plans to build the city near either Las Cruces or Albuquerque on available land close to academic institutions such as UNM and research labs such as Sandia.

“I am conﬁdent this innovative project would provide a great boost to New Mexico’s economy.” ~Susana Martinez NM Governor “This is the way things will work in the future,” he said. “We will take the financial risk: It’s a mindset shift from the government as an owner to governor as a consumer. The taxpayer doesn’t have to put up the money to fund it, just to use it.” Many of the nation’s top research facilities, including the Los Alamos and Sandia laboratories, are government-owned. “Sandbox” would be the first contractor-owned facility of its kind, open to both private and government firms alike. Brumley said Pegasus developed the concept for the project after experiencing difficulty with government-run facilities, which are booked months in advance and aren’t always available to private companies.

“We want everyone to have access to technological proving grounds,” he said. The Associated Press reported the project is projected to cost $200 million. In a press release, Pegasus said the project hopes to create 350 direct jobs and 3,500 indirect jobs in the development, construction and ongoing operation of the facility. Brumley said the company’s goal following the feasibility study is to target investors and raise the necessary funds for construction. The company hopes to gather the necessary funding to break ground in June 2012 and become operational by 2014. Brumley said the state of New Mexico is not a financial partner, and that the money for the project will come from private funds. Following collaboration throughout the summer between Pegasus and the NM State Government, Brumley said he and his colleagues met with Gov. Susana Martinez and Secretary of Economic Development Jon Barela during the first week of September. The group discussed crucial government support for the project. The state has committed to providing non-financial involvement — resources the state normally provides to businesses — and an introduction to the different agencies and regulatory rules to aid in planning. “I am confident this innovative project would provide a great boost to New Mexico’s economy,” Martinez said. State officials and the company signed a memorandum of understanding pertaining to feasibility study and the state’s involvement in the project.

charlieshipley84@gmail.com Susan McKinsey, UNM’s director of communications, has spent decades working for and with the media. Her impending retirement has now made her the subject of the news, which she said feels odd. “I don’t like the idea of me being the news,” she said. McKinsey, who is set to retire at the end of the month, was honored this week with the Board of Regents’ Meritorious Service Award during Tuesday’s board meeting. McKinsey is a former radio and television broadcaster who worked for KOB-TV in the late 70s before moving on to positions in California and Florida. She returned to UNM in 1993 as a communications specialist and has been director of communications since 2001. McKinsey was humble as she accepted the award, giving only a short statement of thanks. “You have no idea how much this means to me,” she said. “You don’t have to be here many years to know that you don’t do it by yourself.” The regents, as well as UNM President David Schmidly shared memories and praised McKinsey’s professionalism. “I’ve never worked with a finer professional, or a person with more talent than Susan,” he said. “You’re always a Lobo and we’re very proud of you.” Regent President Jack Fortner joked that as a parting gift, he had McKinsey’s name legally changed back to Moczygemba, McKinsey’s maiden name, and the name she was known by during her early years in New Mexico. “I changed your name for you, free of charge,” Fortner said. “We’re

very grateful for all you’ve done for us and wish you the best of luck on the next leg of your journey. You’ve always been there for us.” McKinsey praised those she worked with, asking members of the communications staff who were present to stand and be recognized. “These individuals have served the University meritoriously, and it is my honor to accept this award for you,” she said. Senior Communications Representative Karen Wentworth said she has worked with McKinsey for eight years. “She’s great, very conscientious and detail-oriented and professional,” Wentworth said.

Courtesy of UNM Today McKinsey said she will continue to work at the University after retirement, but for only 10 hours per week. “I can’t say what my fondest memory of UNM is, because it may not have happened yet,” she said. She said the best part of serving as communications director is communicating. “Talking to folks, talking to regents, talking to students,” she said. “Everyone is interesting.”

Backstage: Dive on in Abel Sanchez is in his sixth year as the head coach of the UNM Diving Team. His goal is to take three divers to NCAA this year, which would be three more than last year. “I was fortunate the time I came, I had a couple of good divers,” he said.“ And now we have a room of great divers; personally I think our team is one of the best diving teams in the country.” Sanchez was born in Lansing, Michigan 39 years ago and became a diver when he was 16. He was a three-time All-American at the University of Michigan and competed in the 2000 Sydney Olympics for Peru. One year after Sanchez joined UNM, he began work to complete a Master’s degree in architecture, which he said had been a long-term goal of his. “I always had the idea of building something that will last,” Sanchez said. He earned his degree last May, and he said someday, maybe 10 years from now, he would like to work for a firm that designs athletic facilities.

“Any firm who is interested in conducting a presidential search presents a proposal which outlines the cost of the search, what they would do, and how extensive it would be,” Wentworth said. “The regents select from the bids that were presented.” According to the proposed budget for the presidential search, the largest expense in the search itself comes from the direct fee paid to the consultants. The document goes on to say that all search firms charge a percentage fee for their indirect expenses, which is generally 15 percent of the direct fee. UNM was able to negotiate the fee down to 12 percent. Storbeck, Pimentel & Associates’ direct fee is about $130,000, which is about $66,000 less than was paid to Greenwood & Associates for the

2006 presidential search. The search will be paid for with University contingency funds. Pimentel said the UNM presidential search is not his first foray in the state. He was involved in recent searches for the director of Los Alamos National Labs. He said other consultants within his firm have worked on New Mexico education searches, but not at the presidential level. “We limit the number (of searches in which we’re involved) because of the complexity of them,” Pimentel said. “Because of the complexity of reaching out and recruiting candidates, if (you) take on too many, it dilutes your ability to be in service to your client, but there are also conflicts. If I were doing another research university like UNM, it would be a problem.”

Brumley said his reception in New Mexico has been warm. “I was absolutely blown away,” he said. “The state really picked up on this and ran with it. Barela and Martinez (were) very kind. We will look to them for the kind of role government should provide: assistance with the state land office, services, and regulatory help, and we will provide what we should: risk and capital.” Brumley said Pegasus chose New Mexico because of its land availability and reputation for technological research. “We’re not from New Mexico, but we want to be a New Mexico business,” he said. “We want to hire and build in the state. We want our project to be … a center for inventors, innovators and investors — and a driver of employment.”

Boy goes overboard, father charged by Amy Taxin

The Associated Press SANTA ANA, Calif. — A father was charged Wednesday with child abuse after prosecutors said he slapped his 7-year-old son until he cried, and then threw the boy overboard during a pleasure cruise in California. Sloan Briles, 35, of Irvine had been drinking before the boy was tossed 10 feet over the side of the Queen in Newport Harbor during a cruise on Aug. 28, authorities said. When other passengers became angry, Briles jumped into the water before someone on a nearby boat retrieved the boy, prosecutors said. Meanwhile, the crew of the Queen asked people on the other boat not to help Briles, who was pulled back on board. Several days later, Briles told the

syndicated show “Inside Edition” that it amounted to “roughhousing.” “We were just screwing around, just showing off, just being guys,” he told the show. “It’s not like I threw him off. We went together. It was just like a hand-in-hand thing.” A call to Briles on Wednesday was not immediately returned. Briles is scheduled to be arraigned on Sept. 26 in Newport Beach on one felony count of child abuse and endangerment and one misdemeanor count of resisting an officer. If convicted, he could face up to six years in prison. Briles took the cruise with his girlfriend and two young sons from a previous marriage. He was arrested on board by deputies and later released on $100,000 bail. Passengers aboard the 42-foot Queen — which offers a tour past the homes of John Wayne and other

Vatican beseeches dissenters to rejoin by Nicole Winfield The Associated Press

VATICAN CITY — The Vatican has told a breakaway traditional Catholic group that its members must accept some core church teachings if they want to be brought back into the Roman Catholic fold. The Vatican didn’t say what the disputed teachings were, but a top official of the group recently made clear it remains opposed to the church’s decades-long outreach to Jews, Muslims and members of other faiths. The Vatican’s chief doctrinal official, Cardinal William Levada, met Wednesday with Bishop Bernard Fellay, head of the Society of St. Pius X, for more than two hours to discuss the conditions under which the society could be welcomed back into the church. It was the latest in Pope Benedict XVI’s efforts to reconcile with the group opposed to the liberalizing reforms of the Second Vatican Council. The Vatican said it handed over a two-page note listing core principles of church teaching and interpretation that must be accepted by the society’s members. But it said specific issues about Vatican II could be left to “legitimate discussion” and study. If the society accepts the Vatican’s terms, the “most plausible solution” would be for it to become a personal prelature within the church, Vatican spokesman Rev. Federico Lombardi said. In practical terms, that means that Fellay wouldn’t answer to any diocese, but to the Holy See — a unique church structure currently assigned only to the conservative movement Opus Dei. The Society of St. Pius X was founded by the late ultraconservative Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre in 1969 and

split from Rome over the interpretation of Vatican II’s reforms, particularly those that revolutionized the church’s relations with Jews and allowed for the celebration of Mass in languages other than Latin. In 1988, the Vatican excommunicated Lefebvre and four of his bishops after he consecrated them without papal consent. Despite concerns from liberal Catholics, Benedict has worked for two decades, as cardinal and as pope, to bring the group back into the Vatican’s fold, eager to prevent further schism and the expansion of a parallel church. The society, which is based in Menzingen, Switzerland, has six seminaries, three universities and 70 primary and secondary schools around the globe. Aside from the four bishops, it boasts more than 550 priests and 200 seminarians. Benedict’s outreach to the society is one of many initiatives he has taken in favor of conservative and traditionalist Catholics, while he has punished progressive clerics and silenced debate about priestly celibacy and women priests. In 2007, Benedict answered one of Fellay’s key demands by relaxing restrictions on celebrating the Latin Mass. Two years later, he answered another demand and lifted the excommunication of the four bishops, including that of a Holocaust denier whose rehabilitation sparked outrage among Jews and Catholics alike. In the two years since, the Vatican and the society met eight times to try to work out the theological and doctrinal differences that separated them in a bid to fully reconcile the society’s members with the church. Those talks led to Wednesday’s set of minimal requirements issued by the Vatican.

celebrities — were shocked and disgusted at the incident, according to 911 tapes. Afterward, Briles’ two sons were returned to the care of their mother, who was divorced from Briles in 2007. Family court filings showed Briles lost his mortgage industry job in 2007 and successfully petitioned to get his child support obligation reduced. He later tried for a second reduction that his ex-wife opposed, writing that Briles only saw the boys on his weekends and rarely called them during his off weeks. Briles pleaded guilty in February 2009 to being in contempt for not paying child support and was sentenced to three years of probation, according to court records. He also pleaded guilty in 2011 to public intoxication.

Bad economy leads to more fulfilled lives Editor, With the drawn-out, false-hope-ified economic downturn comes a lot of panic and morose speculation on the future of our quality of life. But you know what? The fact that people aren’t buying things every single day is not a bad thing. And if you’re not selling stuff to people every day, that’s OK too. There are alternatives to living your life for the purpose of buying things. Our culture is held together by how our tastes and aspirations correspond with certain brand names and the prestige or antiprestige that goes with it. People will have to learn to do without frills, but they might also discover a more fulfilling kind of happiness after becoming less focused on material hoarding. And when people have less, they are more likely to help each other and share resources. That means more friends and a better chance to connect with others in a way that is lacking these days because people are more tuned into texting and Facebook than establishing relationships in the immediate physical world. This is not to say materialism and Facebook is bad; I like stuff as much as anyone. Shopping is fun, and getting a text feels good. But these things are not the ruler by which we should measure our happiness. The fun part of our crashing economy is discovering the life-fulfilling potentialities that wait below our superficial ambitions. It sounds hokey, but it’s true. Also, for how-the-f*** long did we think we could keep taking out loans? It’s like living in denial. It works for a short time, and then it doesn’t work anymore, and we have to come to terms with the residual build-up from neglecting obvious principles and living in la-la land. It teaches us to take our risks more seriously, laying a groundwork for a more realitybased national management system. We’re waking up from the American Dream, and most don’t think it’s pretty, but I say it’s beautiful. It makes me happy to see people every day dressing sharp, looking for jobs after having been turned down for 85 of them across the country, back living with their parents, bumming cigarettes off of their friends, scheming up ways to make it through the next week. They must feel so much more alive, having to focus on their immediate situation instead of resting on the their laurels because America will always be golden. It’s funny to see everyone falling apart over it like they’re fighting the great fight. Seriously, if you detach from it a little, you’ll see how silly it all is. There are other options for shaping your life, even in a lessthan-stellar economy. The greatest damage I’ve seen is that it just makes people whine and complain more, but that can be likened to spiritual growing pains. Maybe America is on a path to maturing. It’s like when someone breaks your heart: you just grow stronger. Eva Avenue Editor of the Nightly Noodle Monthly

Candidates should check their facts Editor, In Monday’s GOP primary debate, there were two statements regarding women’s health issues that were both incorrect and detrimental to society. First, the morning-after pill, also known as “Plan B,” is not the abortion pill. The morning-after pill does not terminate a pregnancy. This pill acts to prevent the fertilization or implantation of an egg. It contains the

UNM’s homeless no threat to students by Jose Flores

Daily Lobo Columnist

In “UNM’s homeless seek food, relief,” from last Wednesday’s Daily Lobo, Luke Holmen reported on the University’s homeless population and how it makes students uncomfortable. The article stated many of these individuals have been seen harassing women, defecating on buildings and demanding spare change from passers-by. As a result, many feel unsafe on their own terrain, and some are even insisting the UNM police play a more active role in removing the homeless from campus. This raises the question: Sould UNM increase security in and around UNM campus in order to protect us from this harassment? Some think this is a good idea, considering the increase in homelessness in recent years. However, it is a possibility that more police monitoring UNM campus may make it feel more like a detention center than a place for learning. Before we lose our perspective and begin investing more money in security in order to deal with this problem, let us just reflect for a moment. According to Antoine Germain, a homeless man interviewed in the article, people usually treat homeless people badly. No one should want to be responsible for the violent or verbal abuse of a fellow human being. If police officers mistreat the homeless, then to call the police on a homeless person is to mistreat the homeless person by proxy. same hormones as birth control pills, only in higher doses. The abortion pill (RU-486) is a different drug and actually terminates a pregnancy. Second, and even more detrimental, was the statement that HPV vaccinations are dangerous, which is simply untrue. HPV vaccinations such as Gardasil do not use live HPV viruses. Therefore, it is not possible to contract HPV through vaccination. Statements were made that it should be left up to each parent’s discretion whether a young girl should get the HPV vaccination. Why would we as a society not do everything possible to prevent cancer, especially a cancer that is so dangerous to women?

I would like to ask the young people on campus, “Would you allow more of a police presence on campus if it means that you wouldn’t be sexually harassed by the homeless?” I have a feeling that most would say yes. Granted, no one wants to be harassed, and many homeless people in Albuquerque might do just that. However, are we ready to trade the harassment of homeless people for the harassment of police officers? And consider this: The money for extra security has to come from somewhere. According to an article published in the New York Times, “Violence Tests the Security on Campuses,” many campuses are upping security programs and paying for it, too. At the University of Toledo in Ohio, the campus police ordered 15 long-range rifles, which cost $13,800, along with $71,000 in additional deadbolts. Hofstra University has spent $750,000 in emergency communication systems, and almost every campus in the U.S. has invested in a text messaging emergency system. The reasons for these measures are varied, but they share a common theme: security. Perhaps these universities’ funds could have been used for more appropriate causes such as hiring professors, upkeep of campus or anything related to academia. I wonder if any of the increased security measures at the University of Toledo made any one of the students or staff feel safer on campus. But getting back to local issues, the homelessness problem at UNM isn’t even bad enough to warrant more security. People simply

We no longer live in an era where it is common belief that diseases punish the immoral. When we know what causes a deadly disease, we as a society should do everything in our power to prevent it. Requiring this vaccination is no different than requiring the many other vaccinations that schools demand children receive. We make vaccinations mandatory for diseases that plague society, such as polio. Cancer of all types needs to be vanquished from society. I stand for preventing all types of cancer and hope my government will stand with me. Sarah Coffey UNM student

don’t feel comfortable around homeless individuals, which is the real root of the problem. Homeless people come here because many people on campus are willing to help them with food or money. In turn, we as a collective are making them feel comfortable around us. One might question the sense in asking police to remove homeless individuals from a place they consider to be heaven. And if we start thinking of homeless people as people in need, we can see that the homelessness problem should be seen as a social issue rather than a criminal one. Fortunately, the city of Albuquerque has some great programs to help address homelessness, such as the Heading Home Project, which housed 75 homeless individuals in the city. In addition, there are many homeless shelters around the city, such as Joy Junction or the Metropolitan Homelessness Project. Perhaps UNM Police and various city entities need to collaborate on homelessness and poverty issues to come up with a solution that would satisfy everyone. I understand that these are very complicated issues, so in the meantime, when on or around campus one must remain cognizant and aware of people around the area, but one should realize that statistically it’s not likely a homeless person will hurt anyone. Hopefully a valid solution can be implemented; hopefully it’s a solution that suits a free-spirited rather than security-based academic life.

Cuba snubs Richardson visit by Paul Haven

The Associated Press HAVANA — Former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson said Tuesday that he would leave Cuba after exhausting all possible avenues to try to win the release of a jailed U.S. government subcontractor, adding that he was treated so poorly he doubted he could ever come back to the island as a friend. Richardson, who previously vowed to remain in Cuba until he at least got to see jailed Maryland native Alan Gross, changed his mind after meetings with the Cuban government and other influential groups failed to yield any results. He said he would leave Wednesday. “I have been here a week and tried through all means — with religious institutions, diplomats from other countries, all kinds of efforts — and I see that this isn’t going to change,” Richardson told reporters. “So why would I stay?” It was a stunning reversal after word last week that the Democratic politician had been invited by Cuban authorities and was hoping to negotiate Gross’ release. Richardson, a former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations who had enjoyed warm relations with Cuba in the past, said he was disheartened and disillusioned by his treatment, and wondered aloud if President Raul Castro’s government was aiming to deliberately scuttle better ties with Washington. “I am very disappointed and surprised,” Richardson said. “Perhaps the Cuban government has decided it does not want to improve relations. Perhaps that is the message it is sending.” Richardson spoke of his longtime affection for Cuba, its people and its culture, but said this trip has soured all that. “Unfortunately after this negative experience, I don’t know if I could

return here as a friend,” he said. “The next step is up to the Cuban government, but they have not treated me like a friend.” Richardson has been hunkered down at the capital’s Hotel Nacional de Cuba since last Wednesday, waiting for a response to his demand to visit Gross in a military hospital where the 62-year-old is being held. But high hopes for the trip evaporated quickly after Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez said he could not even meet with Gross, let alone take him home. Richardson’s request to see Castro was also denied. “The State Department is very disappointed because they did not let me see Alan Gross,” Richardson said Tuesday. Victoria Nuland, a department spokeswoman, said President Barack Obama’s administration had been in touch with Richardson and regretted that his requests had been falling on deaf ears. Still, she said the trip wasn’t a wasted effort. “It certainly underscored the plight of Mr. Gross,” she told reporters in Washington. Richardson said Cuban officials did not even want to discuss Gross’ case with him, or suggest how the standoff could be resolved. “There were no demands. It was just an outright rejection of even a dialogue on what could be done,” he said. Richardson said he told the Cubans that if Gross were freed, it could be the impetus for renewed dialogue on a host of issues between the Cold War enemies. Richardson said the response was clear: “You will not take Alan Gross home. You cannot see him,’” officials told him. Cuba’s rejection of even a visit with Gross appeared to signify a hardening of Havana’s stance. Former President Jimmy Carter and other previous U.S. visitors had been allowed

to see Gross. It was not clear what went wrong this time around. Richardson has not said specifically what he was told by the Cubans that led him to believe they welcomed his visit, or who in the government had delivered the message. Word of the trip leaked to U.S. news media outlets in Washington just as Richardson arrived, perhaps leading to a perception in Havana that the American was seeking to pressure them into a decision. The Cuban government had no reaction to Richardson’s decision to abandon his visit. Gross was sentenced to 15 years in jail for crimes against the state after he was caught illegally bringing communications equipment onto the island while on a USAID-funded democracy-building program. Cuba says the programs aim to bring down the government; Gross contends he was only trying to help the island’s tiny Jewish community get Internet access. Efforts have grown in recent months to seek Gross’ release on humanitarian grounds. Those who have visited him say he has lost 100 pounds (45 kilos) in jail, and his 27-year-old daughter and elderly mother both are battling cancer back in the United States. The case has crippled attempts to improve relations between Washington and Havana, and the treatment of Richardson by Cuban officials is sure to be a fresh blow. The drama surrounding Richardson will have a lasting effect on perceptions in Washington, said Joe Garcia, a Miami-based former Obama administration appointee who has long known Richardson and frequently worked on Cuba-related issues. “For elements in the Cuban regime to try to embarrass one of the senior American leaders in foreign policy either leads one to think no one is

connect on relatively mundane issues, like twice-yearly talks on migration and less-regular discussions they are meant to have on mail service.

bodyART Artist replaces naked walls with naked women by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu

Dylan Smith/ Daily Lobo Marcus Romero, a UNM student, works from his blackbook, a sketchbook for graffiti artists. He said he wants use art as a means by which to educate and mentor young people.

Marcus Romero is a graffiti artist who chooses to paint on naked women rather than walls on the street. Romero, a UNM student and artist, began delving into the Albuquerque graffiti scene when he was in high school. By his first semester of college, he began composing his ‘blackbook,’ a sketchbook in which graffiti artists keep their pieces. There are three kinds of graffiti: tagging, or simple lines; bombing, which is outlining with interior and exterior; and piecing, or wildstyle graffiti akin to murals. As an artist, Romero focused on piecing. “I never really did too much of it in high school. I kind of just focused on my grades,” he said. “But I wanted to balance being focused on school with some form of rebelling, so I had some kind of weird balance. It worked out in my head. It’s kind of abstract, but I was going through a lot; I was developing my own art, experimenting with my own expression, and this was one way.” Romero said his artistic vision is not manifested in an exclusive medium, nor is his purpose fully realized. His interests range from painting and drawing to physical therapy, fractals and education, all of which he hopes to incorporate into a single concept to educate people on a mass scale. When his graffiti captures the interest of the kids he works with at the YMCA, Romero tries to steer them into a positive venue for learning. For instance, he said he has been experimenting with different ways of learning that incorporate art, science and math, such as the “Fractal Man.” “I let them experiment with whatever they want, but I try to guide them to the right path,” he said. “I know that life and what it’s about, and I know the consequences behind it, and I know a lot of bad things that are wrong with it. They can fall into bad trends, so I try and tell them about the bad trends and redirect them toward something positive.” His belief is that art serves a higher purpose. With graffiti, he said he was trying to spread positive messages based on issues he had indirectly experienced. “I took notice of what was occurring around me a lot more, a lot of my friends, like girls that were friends of mine, had been raped and things like that, so I started putting up (anti-rape) messages,” he said. A number of reasons came together that eventually prompted him to stop doing graffiti. Graffiti is a high-risk art form, and Romero said he was put off by the “toys,” or cognitive amateurs, who do it with negative intentions or for superficial reasons. “They’re not really preaching to a message — they’re not doing it for art. They’re doing it for destruction,” he said. “They’re not really doing it for passion. They’re still learning, they’re still developing, but the point is that’s when the art stops, because people ruin it.” However, he didn’t give it up until his mother, who encourages his art and believes in his ability, asked him to stop. Romero said graffiti is no longer a significant part of his life. Still hungry for the rush he said graffiti gave him, Romero found an apt substitute: painting naked women

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s either being chased by cops or being around a naked female,â&#x20AC;? he said. Romero estimates he has painted on roughly 25-30 women using acrylic paint pens. Erika Spiess met Romero through a mutual friend. After a few months of knowing him, she said he suggested it jokingly and she went for it. Many people she told reacted in disbelief, she said, because they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand that it was art and not sex. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People think automatically like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Oh, you got naked, what the hell?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; and it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like that at all, it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t anything sexual,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some people need canvasses, paper or the computer, whatever it is.

Music breaks down borders by Nicole Perez

nicole11@unm.edu From Hungary to Venezuela, Pakistan to Norway, these musicians donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let their countriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; borders limit the scope of their art. Globalquerque!, an annual global music festival, will be held at the National Hispanic Cultural Center this Friday and Saturday and features three concurrent stages of performers each night. Neal Copperman, one of the founders and directors of the festival, said while people come to the festival with certain preconceptions and formed musical tastes, they often leave with a whole new mindset. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They might come because they like something that they know, but what they often find is that the music they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know is surprisingly captivating, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll love it in ways they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Like maybe theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll discover that fiddle music of Finland is really joyous and fun, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I never thought I wanted to go see Finnish fiddle music, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great!â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sense of discovery with the festival.â&#x20AC;? Globalquerque! is entering its seventh year, and Copperman said that compared to previous festivals, Globalquerque! 2011 boasts a strong Latin American presence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It seems like we have a particularly strong Latin dance vibe going this year,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got three super, really compelling Latin bands. In fact, both of our closing bands Friday and Saturday night are really fun Latin bands.â&#x20AC;? The Globalquerque! festival is

not just about music â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it crosses all cultural boundaries. On Saturday a free, family-geared event called Global Fiesta offers a variety of activities that promote cultural understanding.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Music is like water- it flows into all cultures and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s respect for musicians and the energy that we bring in our music everywhere I goâ&#x20AC;? ~Stephen Kent Musician â&#x20AC;&#x153;That program is really an opportunity for people to dig a little deeper into the cultures,â&#x20AC;? Copperman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s workshops; thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dance classes; thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s craft activities. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a really nice compliment to the evening.â&#x20AC;? Baraka Moon, one of the bands set to perform at Globalquerque!, is a trio with members from India, New York and England who together create a combination of the musical traditions of India, Pakistan, Australia and Africa. Didgeridoo player and percussionist Stephen Kent said he and his bandmatesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; music is based on Sufi ecstatic trance music from India, and the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s diverse background helps create a profoundly

ÂĄ

unique sound. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We combined the music and sounds of those various parts of the world into one kind of seamless whole which represents all of those musical sounds, if not the cultures that they come from,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Music is universal language.â&#x20AC;? Kent said musicians have an ability to truly unite those who listen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Music is like water â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it flows into all cultures, and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s respect for musicians and the energy that we bring in our music everywhere I go,â&#x20AC;? Kent said. Copperman said Globalquerque! provides attendees with a diverse spectrum of music from all over the world, which is important for understanding other cultures. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you look at a broad palate like that, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot more to experience than, say, if all you ever wanted to listen to was punk music or country music.â&#x20AC;? Copperman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re only getting one sort of view of the world, whereas this is kind of a broad view in multiple perspectives and multiple ways of looking at things.â&#x20AC;?

Symposium looks at visual cultures with new eyes by Nicole Gard

nicolegard@yahoo.com Graduate students are employing the right hemispheres of their brains to explore the Western Hemisphere of the world. “Hemisphere: Visual Cultures of the Americas,” an annual publication from the Department of Art and Art History, is a compilation of graduate student essays. The publication holds a symposium Friday to preview content in the upcoming edition. Johanna Wild, a grad student and editor-in-chief of the publcation, said the topics are nationalism, transnationalism and postnationalism. Writers are selected from a global pool of

applicants and are chosen based on how well they represent the publication’s theme.

“I think especially with the states we are in, the Mexican border is so apparent.” ~Paul Kuenker Arizona State Univeristy Paul Kuenker, a speaker from Arizona State University, said he will discuss the importance of

studying border lands and how borders construct our relationship to other countries. Although his discussion focuses primarily on the U.S.-Canadian border, he said the topic is still applicable to people in the New Mexico and Arizona region because studying one border fosters an understanding of all borders. “I think, especially with the states we are in, the Mexican border is so apparent,” he said. “The kinds of issues we see in our relationship with that neighbor has brought this to the forefront.” The symposium’s keynote speaker, Gustavo Larach, the curator and a doctoral candidate in the Department of Art and Art History, specializes in the modern

and contemporary art of Central America. His topic, the Third Honduran Biennial of Visual Art, is a compilation of his current research, which focuses on the work of contemporary Honduran artists, he said. Larach said that 65 percent of Hondurans live with incomes below the poverty line, so Honduran artists frequently create art that gives a voice to underprivileged groups. “Artists are developing works that point to the awful conditions in which most people have to subsist in Honduras,” he said. Larach said he hopes listeners will leave the symposium with a new consciousness of the harsh environments in which people

around the world live. “In terms of contemporary Honduran art, I would hope that the American public will be more aware of how things are there in terms of human rights abuses,” he said. “That’s not covered in the media, so artists are trying to bring attention to it.”

Guide dogs face new challenges in evolving world by Sue Manning

LOS ANGELES — Guide dogs and their handlers have always undergone intense training on dealing with distractions from squirrels to skateboarders. But today’s guide dogs have a whole new generation of things to worry about: quiet cars, button-activated walk signals, stroller traffic on handicapped curb cuts and a greater likelihood of interacting with other dogs. “It used to be you encountered other dogs mostly on sidewalks while you were going down the street,” said Morgan Watkins, acting president and chief executive officer of Guide Dogs for the Blind,

which has campuses in San Rafael, north of San Francisco, and in Boring, Oregon. Nowadays, he said, a guide dog might encounter another dog in a supermarket aisle or at the mall or the dentist’s office. There are few places pets can’t be found these days. “We work very hard with the assumption that your dog can be distracted anywhere,” said Watkins, who started losing his vision at age 11. Anything or anyone that keeps a guide dog from focusing on its work is considered a distraction, and becomes something the dog is trained to ignore. Everyone can help guide dogs and their handlers avoid some dis-

tractions. One basic rule: don’t pet a guide dog without permission. Because the dogs are so highly trained and well-behaved, people want to touch them, Watkins said. Many times, he said, he has reached down to learn which way his dog, Will, is looking, only to find someone else’s hand already on the dog. Another simple way to minimize distractions for guide dogs is to keep your own dog leashed. If a dog barks at Will, Watkins said he would probably keep moving. “Odds are he won’t flinch,” he said. Guide dogs are also trained not to fight. If a guide dog is attacked by another animal, handlers will drop the harness and call

for help. Another new distraction or hazard for guide dog teams is the electric car. Watkins has excellent hearing and can usually make out the sound of an electric car, but it’s difficult at noisy intersections. That’s why guide dogs are taught intelligent disobedience — defying an order to keep a partner safe, Watkins explained. If Watkins tells Will to go and there is an electric car going through an intersection, he will not go. When the dog disobeys, “I follow my dog,” he said. “It’s part of the trust.” In addition to quiet cars, other environmental elements and distractions that have necessitated

changes in guide-dog training include six-lane streets, traffic islands, roundabouts, cars turning right on red, wheelchair-accessible curbs, button-activated walk signals and even baby strollers using handicapped ramps and curb cuts, Watkins said. Watkins got his first guide dog at age 40 and became CEO of Guide Dogs for the Blind after a long career in computer technology. Walking with Will, he feels through the harness when the dog turns his body, changes pace or cranes his head. “The dog isn’t making noise, the environment is making noise,” he said. “He sees and leads; I direct and praise.”

Cecilia von Beroldingen, who lost her sight as an adult, relies on all types of technology, from a talking GPS called Trekker Breeze that tells her where she is and how to get home, to an iPhone app that audibly identifies currency, barcodes and colors. But von Beroldingen, who runs a state forensic training facility in Sacramento called the California Criminalistics Institute, relies on a guide dog in addition to the technology. The gadgets won’t steer her clear of obstacles like tree limbs or ladders or a child’s forgotten toy. They won’t find her a seat at the airport, help her board a bus or navigate an escalator. And when the day is done, no mechanical de-

vice can compete with the warmth of a loving dog at her side, a companion she trusts like no other. She got her first dog, Kola, in 1994. “She saved my life; she was my best friend,” she said. Von Beroldingen got Kola and her current guide dog from Guide Dogs for the Blind. The organization breeds its own dogs, with puppies spending their first eight weeks at San Rafael, followed by 16 months with a trainer for those dogs that are suited for the program. After two or three months at a school, the dog teams up with its handler and is trained for another few weeks. Watkins said the school pairs

up humans and dogs that have the same personalities, same demeanor, even the same gait. If the blind person can’t afford vet care, Guide Dogs will pay for it, he said. Most guide dogs work until they are 8 to 10 years old, Watkins said. When they retire, they can stay with their partner or Guide Dogs will place them in an adoptive home. Guide Dogs for the Blind trained about 2,200 of the 10,000 guide dogs working in the U.S. and Canada today. September is National Guide Dog month and several groups are working to raise money and awareness for the cause, including Dick Van Patten’s Natural Balance pet food, Petco and independent pet food stores.

Even so, at the time it was fought, the war was incredibly unpopular. Ulysses S. Grant called the war “unjust,” Abraham Lincoln held reservations about it, and Frederick Douglas said the war was “cruel and iniquitous,” according to Mark Day’s documentary, “The San Patricios: The Tragic Story of the St. Patrick’s Battalion.” According to the documentary, the morale was especially low among the ranks. On the march to Mexico, many men died of diseases. Others were fed up with the strict regulations and punishments — the flogging and the branding — for minor infractions. The majority of the San Patricios were Catholic, Richardson said. During that time in American history, Catholics were discriminated against, especially in the armed forces where many Irish-Catholic immigrants were treated poorly and punished more severely than their native, Protestant colleagues. Professor Margaret ConnellSzasz, who teaches Native American, Celtic and U.S. history at UNM, said she agreed that throughout the greater part of American history, Catholics faced much discrimination. “This is the era, particularly in the war era, when you have Protestant hegemony in this country,” Connell-Szasz said. But, as Richardson noted, fighting against religious discrimination wasn’t the only reason for desertion, since some of the San Patricios and other deserters accepted land and money from the Mexican government for joining the Mexican Army. Dr. Carlos Vasquez, director of history and literary arts at the National Hispanic Cultural Center, said that the San Patricios switched sides because they related and sympathized with the Mexicans and recalled their recent experience with British cruelty. “It was the first time the United States employed a scorched earth policy — that is, killing everyone and everything in a village, all

living matter, and blowing up all the houses,” Vasquez said. “The Irish soldiers refused to do that, and they changed sides and fought for Mexico.” Throughout the course of the two-year war, the San Patricios, despite being skilled at artillery fire, suffered heavy losses, especially at the Battle of Churubusco. According to Mark Day’s documentary, 60 percent of them were either killed or captured. According to Day’s documentary, after they were captured by the United States they were court marshaled, whipped and beaten. Fifty San Patricios were hanged. Day said the execution of the San Patricios was “an embarrassment for the U.S. Army.” He said that this is why, for many years, the army covered up the existence of the San Patricios. “There actually really was a sort of cover-up of the San Patricios in particular,” Richardson said. “But the cover-up wasn’t all just on the Army’s side.” He argued that the cover-up had to do with embarrassment about the number of deserters in the Mexican-American War. The Irish, throughout most of their modern history, haven’t had an army, Richardson said. When they have left Ireland, they have fought for the French, the Spanish, the Mexicans, the Americans, or anyone who would give them money. Still, Richardson said it’s not a clean-cut story, and he’s not sure why the San Patricios did what they did.

In U.S. history classes, students are taught to remember the Alamo. But during the era of the United States’ westward expansion, many stories were lost, or even purposely hidden, along the way. The story of the San Patricios, or the St. Patrick’s Battalion, is one of them. The San Patricios were a group of Irish immigrants who deserted the United States Army to fight for the Mexican Army during the Mexican-American War, which lasted from April 25, 1846 to Feb. 2, 1848. History professor Caleb Richardson, who teaches British, Irish and European history at UNM, said that because there aren’t enough first-hand accounts from the San Patricios, it is difficult to know for certain what motivated them switch sides. “Were these people fighting against imperialism, were they fighting for their religion and fighting against religious discrimination, or were they just doing it for the money?” Richardson said. On Sunday the NHCC is hosting the second annual Dia de los San Patricios in order to inform the public about this almost-forgotten piece of history and to celebrate the similarities between Mexican and Irish cultures. In Mexico, the San Patricios are honored every year on September 12, which is also the same day that the town of Clifden, Ireland flies the Mexican flag. But in the United States, they’re regarded as traitors. These men — many of whom had just gotten off a boat from Ireland and were conscripted — switched sides and fought valiantly on the front lines of the Mexican Army in several battles, according to historian Peter F. Stevens’ book “The Rogue March.” The war officially ended with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, through which the U.S. gained nearly one-third of the territory within its modern-day borders.
