Juan Labreche / Daily Lobo Junior education major Eunice Tagle sits in promotion of the DREAM Act with a group of about 15 students, many of Mexican descent, at Cornell Drive and Central Avenue on Wednesday. The group could be heard chanting “no somos criminales, ni tampoco ilegales,” and wore bandanas over their faces as a “silent statement.” Other supporters said,“La migra, la policía, la misma porqueria,” which was described by one supporter as a statement to represent the fear that immigrant families face because they are, “scared to call the police because they perform the same job as immigration.”

Frontier study policy ‘hit or miss’ by Nicole Storey

news@dailylobo.com Although new signs displayed at the Frontier Restaurant in September prohibit study groups, the policy has been in effect for the past 30 years. Larry Rainosek and his wife Dorothy Rainosek opened Frontier in 1971 and have lightly enforced the no-study-groups rule ever since. Larry Rainosek said that for the past 30 years, the restaurant has maintained policies about study groups during peak business hours, which are between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. But he said that the policies aren’t strictly enforced and that new signage is displayed when the old signs fall down. “It’s kind of a hit or miss. We have put up the signs and then they might come down just because they get worn down and then we put them up fresh again,” he said. “It’s just a reminder … we don’t have to use it often, but every so often we have to do it, so when we ask someone to take their group somewhere else we have something to refer to.”

Larry Rainosek said that he and his wife have been lax about the policy and that restaurant managers are not overly vigilant about enforcing the rule. He said it’s often difficult to confront study groups because some people who study at the restaurant are also customers. “Obviously we always want to keep as many people happy as we can,” he said. “So that gets to be a little bit sensitive that you have to identify just how long they’ve been here and, if somebody’s walked up and they’re studying and they’re eating, obviously that’s not considered a study group.” Frontier cashier Megan Horowitse said she hasn’t noticed that the policy has ever upset anyone but the policy is relevant to customers. “I didn’t realize the sign bugged people,” she said. “If I was asked to leave I would be like, ‘What’s the difference between being here alone or with my family?’ I would just casually come in with my group, but I’m the kind of person who thinks I can get away with anything.” Larry Rainosek said that students greatly impact his business. He attributes his success to the fact that his

business has been a part of the Albuquerque community for so long and has become a place that people want to return to. “We are surprisingly well balanced. During the Christmas holidays, a lot of these people that have been coming to Frontier and have relocated, they come back to see family, they come back to the University and we stay very busy during the holidays,” he said. “During the summer, we don’t drop near as much as you would expect.” Larry Rainosek said students and other groups are respectful of the rule and that although the policy is in place, it is usually enforced on a case-by-case basis. He said that the policy is only necessary if the restaurant is too full. “If it happens to be a weekend that’s not really busy and someone is studying, a lot of times students will have their computers set up,” he said. “But when we start running out of seats is when we will come out and ask the people to take their studying to the library or wherever, and we have almost 100 percent cooperation.”

Me

to fix cooking mistakes

Although I dropped out of culinary school only a year after I enrolled, I’ve spent countless hours glued to the Food Network channel and perfecting my culinary expertise. I’ve cooked for at least 15 years, and in that time I’ve learned a lot. Here I’ll share with you some mistakes to avoid.

Mistake 1

Cooking with cold oil

Mistake 2

Closing the oven when the broiler is on

If you’re cooking with oil, be sure to heat the oil before you begin cooking. Adding food to cold- or roomtemperature oil will allow your ingredients to absorb the oil before anything begins to cook. To avoid a greasy mess, preheat the oil until it creates ripples in the pan as it moves from one side to the other.

Broilers run at high temperatures, at least 500 degrees, which means that whatever you broil can burn quickly. Keeping the oven door open will allow you to closely monitor the broiling process, which makes it less likely that your food will burn or that you’ll forget your food under the broiler.

Mistake 3

Adding oil to pasta water

Mistake 4

Using high heat

Unless you plan on eating plain pasta, don’t add oil to your pasta water. Oil will coat the pasta, which will make it difficult for pasta sauce to stick to the pasta. If you don’t want your pasta to stick together, rinse it with cold water once it’s cooked to stop the cooking process, which will keep the pasta from becoming sticky. You can add the cooked and chilled pasta to heated pasta sauce to warm the pasta.

Unless you’re boiling water, don’t use the highest heat setting on your stove. Most cooking styles, such as searing and sauteing, can be done with the medium or medium-high setting on a stove. Cooking with high heat will most likely burn the outside of your food and leave the inside raw. A medium or medium-high heat will allow time for the center of the food to cook before the outside burns.

Mistake 5

Cross-contamination

You should never use the same cookware for raw and cooked foods. Cross-contamination, such as transferring salmonella, can occur if you aren’t careful. Designate cookware, such as knives and cutting boards, for different types of food, such as produce and poultry, so you’re sure you don’t transfer bacteria from one food to the other.

Debate from page 1

credits and so forth, so we keep getting the revenue we need. And you’d think, well, then why lower the rates? And the reason is because small business pays that individual rate; 54 percent of America’s workers work in businesses that are taxed not at the corporate tax rate, but at the individual tax rate. And if we lower that rate, they will be able to hire more people. For me, this is about jobs. This is about getting jobs for the American people.”

Spending Obama: “I think we’ve got to invest in education and training. I think it’s important for us to develop new sources of energy here in America, that we change our tax code to make sure that we’re helping small businesses and companies that are investing here in the United States, that we take some of the money that we’re saving as we wind down two wars to rebuild America and that we reduce our deficit in a balanced way that allows us to make these critical investments.” Romney: “First of all, I will eliminate all programs by this test, if they don’t pass it: Is the program so critical it’s worth borrowing money from China to pay for it? And if not, I’ll get rid of it. … No. 2, I’ll take programs that are currently good programs but I think could be run more efficiently at the state level and send them to the state. No. 3, I’ll make government more efficient and to cut back the number of employees, combine some agencies and departments.”

Jobs Obama: “We’ve got some data on which approach is more likely to create jobs and opportunity for Americans, and I believe that the economy works best when middleclass families are getting tax breaks so that they’ve got some money in

their pockets. And those of us who have done extraordinarily well because of this magnificent country that we live in, that we can afford to do a little bit more to make sure we’re not blowing up the deficit.” Romney: “My priority is jobs. And so what I do is I bring down the tax rates, lower deductions and exemptions — the same idea behind Bowles-Simpson, by the way. Get the rates down, lower deductions and exemptions, to create more jobs. Because there’s nothing better for getting us to a balanced budget than having more people working, earning more money, paying more taxes. That’s by far the most effective and efficient way to get this budget balanced.”

Medicare Obama: “I don’t think vouchers are the right way to go. And this is not my own — only my opinion. AARP thinks that the savings that we obtained from Medicare bolster the system, lengthen the Medicare trust fund by eight years. Benefits were not affected at all. And ironically, if you repeal ‘Obamacare’ — and I have become fond of this term, Obamacare — if you repeal it, what happens is those seniors right away are going to be paying $600 more in prescription care. They’re now going to have to be paying copays for basic checkups that can keep them healthier.” Romney: “What I support is no change for current retirees and near-retirees to Medicare. And the president supports taking $716 billion out of that program. ... For people coming along that are young, what I do to make sure that we can keep Medicare in place for them is to allow them either to choose the current Medicare program or a private plan. Their choice.”

U.S. needs new values, definition by Alexandra Swanberg opinion@dailylobo.com

Can anybody tell me what it means to be an American anymore? I’ve always wondered what people meant by phrases such as “I’m proud to be an American,” or “God bless America,” because not all of those people are talking about people who live in America. I understand that it means something different to everybody, based on the numerous people I’ve asked during the past couple of years, but there seems to be a more general ideology upon which the definition of American is based. I imagine many people look wistfully upon a time when America was on top of the world, and some of those people may desperately try to convince themselves that America is still this way. America will not be a hegemon for long, and it has nothing to do with any other country’s agenda “against us.” I want to generate new ideas, because the system needs to change along with the times. For one thing, America need not be so concerned with maintaining its “superior” position in the world. Why does anybody need to be superior? Why do we have to meddle so much? I am not proud to be American based on the way we as a nation conduct ourselves in the world. We are pushy and think we know best, but we don’t. Every culture has its own way of doing things, and we need to be tolerant. The new system is one that accommodates individual differences, not just in the world, but within our own nation. Another person’s lifestyle has nothing to do with you, and until it directly affects your well-being, why should there be laws enacted to control that lifestyle? Let people do their own thing, and when they make stupid decisions, don’t make a far-reaching law that assumes the stupidity of the population. Our focus should not be on controlling the lives of others. Why isn’t education at the top of our list? Education is a crucial process in everyone’s life, even if it’s not carried out in the way we think of it. The system overworks and underpays teachers, so is it any wonder our country is failing to consistently produce outstanding individuals? I sat in the back of a large lecture hall one day. At the beginning of class, a group of athletes asked each other, “How long are you going to stay today?” “I don’t know, probably 20 minutes.” “Man, I think I’m just going to bail right now.” Girls swirling their $8 lattes chit-chatted several minutes past the professor’s first words, and didn’t stop until I told them to. Why don’t we take our education seriously? Probably because we realize it is only a piece of paper that means we were able to finish something, so we only need to do the bare minimum to succeed. Wrong, wrong, wrong, so wrong. I try not to judge, because who am I to do so? But use your damn brain. Knowledge isn’t as important as the way we use it, which is to make informed decisions that account for the vast diversity in the world. People in this country are aware of their needs, their schedule and their priorities, and screw everyone else’s unless helping someone else does them a favor as well. Granted, this isn’t everyone, and if I were to talk to people individually, I hope they wouldn’t say they believe education is worthless. It is this general attitude that is evident in the way our country is run. The individuals that make up this system are far ahead of the system itself, yet nothing has changed. I don’t know what needs to happen, so why don’t you tell me what you think should be done? We cannot sit passively and wait for politicians to do the right thing. The power is in the hands of the people, and we cannot complain until we use this power. Politicians have to power to enact change; we just need to inform them what we want done, and if they see enough support behind an idea, they will listen, because a politician’s success depends on the support of the people.

Jason Stafford

Daily Lobo guest columnist Recently, the Daily Lobo has been running reader-submitted pieces in an effort to present both sides of the story, and I have been following them. You recently deigned to print a letter from the libertarian point of view (see “Using factual labels essential to debate,” published Monday) due to the lack of submissions from a Republican point of view. The seemingly reluctant printing of the libertarian letter is another topic completely, though it is an indicator of why the two-party system in the U.S. has become as intractable as it has. But my point is not that. The point is the lack of letters received by the Daily Lobo from Republicans. Is anyone surprised by this? That this party that has spent four years slinging the most base, and sometimes ludicrous, accusations at the president can’t step up to the plate and write something that supports the GOP shouldn’t surprise anyone. When it’s time to leave rhetoric and fear-based politics behind and communicate, the Right is once again mute. And who would write this letter if someone on the Right did step up? The

most fervent believers in the GOP are too dumbed down by the party line to present any form of literate approach to the conversation. They offer only vitriol and straw man arguments along with loud tu quoque — Latin for “you too” or “you also” — misdirection when faced with any difficulties. For four years, this angry, delusional side of the party has been pandered to, and its members are left with a base dumb enough to believe the GOP disconnect whole, but unable to communicate. Another large and moderate portion of the GOP are probably ashamed to speak up for a party that has spent four years in preparation to make President Obama a one-term president, and the very best they can offer up is presidential candidate Mitt Romney. How awful that must feel to want to support your party and realize that you’ve been disenfranchised in favor of the fundamentally nutty element, and to top it off, the current candidate of your party is Mitt Romney. Once the “But at least he isn’t Obama” wears off and reality has to be looked at, I doubt many of the rational Republicans left can muster up any reason to like this guy, let alone vote for him. If bumpers and front yards are any indicator, not many people are willing to publicly support Romney. They may reluctantly vote for him, but they won’t be pleased with it, and they aren’t going to write the Daily Lobo to try to explain that this guy is fit to lead the country in any way, shape or form. There is another group that could have written in to represent the GOP, except they aren’t Republicans anymore. I would be one of those. I’m not claiming my letter would be a missive to change the shape and face of politics or even change one opinion, but it would have been written with sincerity and positivity. It wouldn’t

have been filled with odd accusations of Kenyan-Muslim-Commu-Facism; it would have been an attempt to explain why being fiscally conservative and socially liberal is not a bad thing, and that’s why I support some GOP candidate who isn’t some fundamental dolt. But I left the party when it became intractable to the detriment of the entirety of this nation’s citizens. I left the party when its members sold it over to fundamentalist religion and Tea Party extremism. I left when there was no place for voices to speak logically above the din of idiocy taking over the GOP. Wrapped in the American flag and screeching about the Founding Fathers lies the GOP. Clutching their pearls and catching the vapors and playing victim at every opportunity while they preach all-American values and toughness. This party, once the stomping grounds of guys like John Wayne, is now the party of the victims who cry for their fainting couch over every perceived slight, as Americans different than them — but equally citizens — begin to exercise the rights that are theirs as well. Maybe in another four years, the GOP will have done something — anything — positive to motivate a Republican to stand up and write a letter in support. A credible letter that points to moving forward. A letter free from divisive screeching and victimization. A letter with a plan and a point and not just empty rhetoric. Until then, none of us who read the Daily Lobo are any less empty for having not read a letter written to support this current Republican Party.

should monitor its budgets closely to improve the campus’ accessibility options. “I want to see precisely where (the money) is going,” she said. “I would just tell them to make sure it’s noticeable that what they’re doing is helpful to the disabled community.” UNM Honors College professor Leslie Donovan, who uses a wheelchair, said students have needed automatic doors in the past and that she’s glad that the problem is finally being addressed. “I come over to Marron Hall quite a bit,” Donovan said. “The difficulty that I have is that there are no buttons for automatic doors and no elevators to go upstairs. (Installing automatic doors) is wonderful.” Kenney said that although only some buildings will be updated within the next month, other buildings, such as Marron Hall, will be assessed and updated when funding is available. Donovan said that UNM’s accessibility can still improve through the addition of Braille signage and renovations of elevators. But she said she does not blame the FAC for the lack of these features. “They make a lot of effort,” she said. “But lack of funding makes many areas less accessible for people with mobility issues and visual disabilities.”

UNM Quidditch team takes off by Antonio Sanchez

Quidditch

is played on an oval field called a “pitch” and features three towering hoops at each end of the field. Each team is assigned a set of hoops to defend, and each team tries to attack the opposing team’s hoops. All players must hold a broom between their legs at all times. Each team has three chasers, two beaters, a keeper and a seeker. The chasers are in charge of throwing the quaffle — a partially deflated volleyball — through the opposing team’s hoops for 10 points. The beaters set out to hit the other team’s players with bludgers — partially deflated dodge balls — to “knock them off their brooms,” at which point the player must run to their home hoops before returning to the field. The team’s keeper is in charge of protecting their team’s hoops, while the seeker is in charge of catching the snitch — a cross country runner draped in a bright yellow uniform, with a ball in a sock wrapped around their belt. The first team’s seeker to grab the sock scores the team 50 points and ends the match. While the chasers and the beaters battle it out on the pitch, the snitch is allowed to leave the field throughout the first 15 minutes and hide in nearby trash cans and bushes. The snitch will often tease the seekers, squirting nearby players with squirt guns or doing flips on the field.

he UNM Quidditch team’s biggest obstacle isn’t funding, membership or rechartering — it’s gravity. Luckily for the team, “Muggle Quidditch” was invented seven years ago, with a comprehensive rulebook that explains how to play the sport on the ground. Quidditch is soaring in popularity at colleges throughout the country, and student Nichole Bosas plans on expanding this once-fictional sport to UNM. Bosas is co-captain of the newly born UNM Quidditch team, alongside co-captain Seth Kazmar. Bosas first dabbled with the broom-dominated sport in 2010, after a friend recommended playing for the Illinois State University team. Bosas had never seen or read any Harry Potter material before attending her first Quidditch practice — rather, her background in soccer and ice hockey kicked in when playing the aggressive sport. She still hasn’t read the books or seen the movies. Quidditch is based on a fictional sport of the same name from J.K. Rowling’s bestselling Harry Potter books and movie series, which are about a young wizard named Harry who attends a school of magic called Hogwarts. “Muggle” — or nonmagical — Quidditch features many of the same rules as the fictional game, except the snitch is a person and other rules make the game gravity-friendly. UNM’s Quidditch team began in early September, allowing players old and new to join the group. Although the team has only held two practices, eager UNM students have warmly met the developing team. At one point during their first practice, a student who claimed to be a basketball player admitted he would love to join the team if he wasn’t already on the basketball team. Bosas said the sport’s reception has improved since she played with teams at Illinois State and Kentucky State. “When we would walk to practice on campus, people would give us the After the party was over, Johnson said she packed up her Quidditch worst looks ever and give us smart comments, like ‘Oh, where are your wands gear and never expected to use it again. But two years ago, she received at?’ Yeah, that gets old after a time,” Bosas said. “Once they really find out it’s a an email linking to the International Quidditch Association’s website. She competitive sport, and find out the rules and how they play started posting fliers to start a Quidditch team after noit, then I think they develop an interest in it, rather than steticing there were no registered teams from New Mexico, reotyping it or making all these false statements about it.” but with no luck. That is, until she met Bosas and Kazmar Bosas said that as complicated and as silly as the sport two years later. can be, its demanding nature is no laughing matter. She has Kazmar said he had never played Quidditch before, played against teams from across the country and has seen but his love for Harry Potter drove him to start an offiplayers go down with serious injuries, from deep scratchcial UNM team. Kazmar said that with Bosas’s experience es to broken bones. Bosas once took a blow from a broom, with the game and Johnson’s ability to create equipment, leaving her with a swollen black eye. ~Seth Kazmar he hopes the three can build a solid team. “I’m just saying, lacrosse players have protection and we UNM Quidditch co-captain UNM’s team is hoping to attend this year’s West by definitely don’t.

“We want this to be a growing sport in New Mexico.”

culture@dailylobo.com Almost 1,000 Quidditch teams duel each other around the globe — including teams from Iran, Argentina, Russia, Australia, China and the United States. Almost every team listed with the International Quidditch Association is affiliated with a college, and the list includes Harvard University, National Taiwan University and the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design. Muggle Quidditch is a sport based on a fictional sport of the same name in J.K. Rowling’s bestselling Harry Potter series. UNM’s team is just one in a college craze for the sport,

which began seven years ago in Middlebury, Vt. Alex Benepe and Xander Manshel, at the time students at Middlebury College, said they were sick of traditional sports that didn’t allow for any creativity, according to ESPN. So they wrote up a 39-page rulebook and started a team, and other colleges soon followed suit. The introduction to the rulebook reads “Quidditch is something that makes people undeniably happy. The childlike freedom that comes with playing and watching it is something unprecedented.” In 2007, the Middlebury team hosted the first Intercollegiate Quidditch Association World Cup, which included teams that paid out

of pocket to fly from Washington State and Louisiana. Benepe skipped class and didn’t hand in schoolwork in order to host the event. Many of the teams struggled to make it to the event, but after they were ranked among the “best in the world,” the teams said it will probably be easier to receive funding. Searching for “Quidditch” on Facebook brings up more results than one can count, including a group called “You play Quidditch? Excuse me while I take my clothes off!” The Quidditch team names are just as creative, including the Zagreb Graphorns, the Wanganui Whomping Willows, the Briarcliff Nearly Headless Nicolas Cages and the NY Badassilisks.

Tony Gambino has a fever: a fever for snowboarding. “If you’re a snowboarder, you kind of understand the passion that we have for the sport. It’s something that you live by,” he said. “There’s such a drive in you that you know when the season comes around, and you realize you’re about to start snowboarding, you get so excited, and it’s unexplainable to people who don’t experience it.” Gambino is a previous winner of the Brain Freeze Rail Jam, an invitational skiing and snowboarding competition scheduled for Friday evening. The fourth annual jam will be put on by NMX Sports at Sport Systems and is free to spectators. “It’s the first rail jam of the season, and people are already just throwing down like crazy, and you know we’re pushing each other to try new tricks, and it’s just an all-around good time,” he said. “This event is a great spectator event. If you haven’t seen the stuff that some of these guys and myself are capable of, it’s super impressive.” Sport Systems owner Duane Kinsley said the event usually

attracts more than 1,000 people. Free shuttle rides from surrounding parking lots will be provided because of a lack of parking. The event is part of the Avalanche Snow Show, and Kinsley said many of the regional ski resorts will sell discounted student tickets with a student ID and proof of enrollment. He said it gets New Mexico residents acquainted with the winter sports scene. “People just driving up Montgomery are like ‘What is going on?’ It’s a huge, huge event,” he said. Eddie Vargas has been the director of NMX Sports for three years and began volunteering there in 2005. Vargas said it’s important to encourage people to get exercise and to encourage youth to get involved in sports programs. He said Brain Freeze originally coincided with the annual ski swap held at New Mexico Expo. When NMX Sports got its start, the organization began to hold the show along with the swap and partnered with New Mexico’s ski areas. Vargas said organizers look for a distinct style of athlete to participate in the invitational competition. “We look for somebody that

has a technical style, can go big, is consistent and isn’t going to be afraid to go all out on the first contest of the season,” he said. “That’s another big thing, too: Being that it’s the first contest of the season and it’s not necessarily on a mountain, a lot of people shy away from it because they don’t want to get hurt and ruin their whole snowboard/ski season.” Vargas said the New Mexico snowboarding community is a small group of people who have to take advantage of the state’s short winters, but have a lot of great mountains at their disposal. “It’s a laid-back crowd — a real organic community, I guess you could say — people transcend all generations, age groups, social realms, I guess, to come together,” he said. “You kind of forget it all when you’re up on the mountain; that’s the great equalizer.”

ST. LOUIS — Bacon lovers can relax. They’ll find all they want on supermarket shelves in the coming months, though their pocketbooks may take a hit. The economics of the current drought are likely to nose up prices for bacon and other pork products next year, by as much as 10 percent. But U.S. agricultural economists are dismissing reports of a global bacon shortage that lent sizzle to headlines and Twitter feeds last week. Simply put, the talk of scarcity is hogwash. “Use of the word ‘shortage’ caused visions of (1970s-style) gasoline lines in a lot of people’s heads, and that’s not the case,” said Steve Meyer, president of Iowa-based Paragon Economics and a consultant to the National Pork Producers Council and National Pork Board. “If the definition of shortage is that you can’t find it on the shelves, then no, the concern is not valid. If the concern is higher cost for it, then yes.” Fears about a scarcity of bacon swept across social and mainstream

media in recent weeks after Britain’s National Pig Association said a bacon shortage was “unavoidable,” citing a sharp decline in the continent’s pig herd and drought-inflated feed costs. The report caused much consternation over a product that used to be merely a breakfast staple, but nowadays flavors everything from brownies to vodka. The alarm was quickly dismissed by the American Farm Bureau Federation as “baloney.” “Pork supplies will decrease slightly as we go into 2013,” Farm Bureau economist John Anderson said. “But the idea that there’ll be widespread shortages, that we’ll run out of pork, that’s really overblown.” On Monday, a spokesman for the British pork trade group maintained its position that “there will be a significant tightening in the global pigmeat supply” in the second half of next year, because “the vast majority of pig producers around the world are losing money on every pig they sell.” “Given the huge amount of interest in the United States created by our earlier press release maybe more producers will now hang on

in production, in the hope of recovering their losses next year and in 2014,” Digby Scott told The Associated Press in an email. “We agree with the view of some economists in the (United) States that supplies will tighten and prices will rise BUT maybe you won’t see ‘standing-inline’ shortages in supermarkets. Time will tell.” The stubborn drought in the U.S., the world’s biggest supplier of feed grains, undeniably will affect pig production. The Corn Belt’s lack of moisture twice has prompted the U.S. Agriculture Department to slash its forecast for this year’s corn output. The government now expects U.S. production of the grain to amount to 10.8 billion bushels, the least since 2006. Those lowered expectations sent prices of corn — also used in ethanol, further squeezing supply — to record highs through much of the summer. Feed generally makes up about 60 percent of the expense of raising a pig. Rather than absorb the higher costs, swine and beef producers often have culled their animals by sending them to slaughter.
