Free flu immunizations available by Kallie Red-Horse Daily Lobo
With midterms around the corner, students should head to the UNM Family Practice Center on north campus for their free flu immunizations, said Amy Frederick, Student Health & Counseling nurse manager. Frederick said getting the shot might ensure students stay healthy and can ace their tests. NurseAdvice New Mexico, a statewide health care collaborative, has reported a 20 percent increase in flu-related calls, and Frederick said SHAC has seen an
increase in flu cases, too. “Students are in the age range that we consider at most risk of getting the flu,” she said. “We would really like students to come and get their flu shots.” UNM Hospital nurse Leanne Thompson said students are also at risk because of their close proximity to each other. “I would encourage you to take advantage of it, because it can only help,” she said. “The benefits definitely outweigh any risks of getting the flu shot, especially since students are around so many people, which allows more germs to be transferred more quickly.”
The Division of Enrollment Management plans to let students register for fall and spring classes at the same time. Multiterm registration would allow students to register for a year of classes instead of only one semester’s worth, said Carmen Brown, vice president of enrollment management. She said multiterm registration should be available by fall 2011. Brown said Enrollment Management is forming a committee of staff, faculty and students to decide how to implement multiterm registration “Multiterm registration is in our work plan for this year, which means we’re very optimistic to get it approved, but we need everybody’s input,” she said. Brown said the committee will make suggestions to Enrollment Management, and the final plan will need approval from the provost. She said Enrollment Management doesn’t plan to make multiterm registration mandatory. “For those that are having a hard time finding a certain course they need to graduate, this will really pretty much guarantee the space in that class for them,” Brown said. Brown said multiterm registration will encourage students to graduate in four years and help them plan their daily schedules. But she said some students might not benefit as much from the plan, especially if they aren’t sure of their major yet. “It’s not going to be for every student, because you

Egypt cracks down on religious garb by Sarah El Deeb
The Associated Press CAIRO — Egypt’s top Islamic cleric is planning to ban students wearing the face veil from entering the schools of al-Azhar, Sunni Islam’s premier institute of learning, according to an independent daily Monday. A security official also told The

Associated Press that police have standing verbal orders to bar girls covered from head to toe from entering al-Azhar’s institutions, including middle and high schools, as well as the dormitories of several universities in Cairo. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he’s not authorized to speak to the press, said the ban was for
security reasons. The moves appear to be part of a government campaign cracking down on increasingly overt manifestations of ultraconservative Islam in Egypt. While a vast majority of Egyptian women wear the head scarf, only a few wear the niqab, which covers the face and is common in

ap briefs ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — An unidentified passenger dislocated his hip after tumbling from a hot air balloon Monday, falling about 25 feet when the balloon’s gondola struck a vendor’s tent and tipped. The pilot remained in the gondola as the balloon rose to about 300 feet, then made a rapid descent at Albuquerque’s Balloon Fiesta Park. The pilot sustained minor injuries but was able to walk away from what officials described as a hard landing.

she let her daughter ride in a box on top of their van. Albertville Police spokesman Sgt. Jamie Smith said 37-year-old Jackie Denise Knott was arrested Sunday after police received a call about a minivan traveling on U.S. 431 with a large cardboard box on top with a child inside. Smith said the woman told police the box was too big to go inside the van, and that her daughter was inside the box to hold it down. Smith said Knott told officers it was safe because she had the box secured to the van with a clothes hanger. British
government plans to freeze the salaries of top bureaucrats and offer only minimal increases to other senior workers in an effort to control the country’s spiraling deficit, a treasury official said Monday. Another government official said the plan would effect about 750,000 public sector workers, including doctors, judges and senior bureaucrats. Liam Byrne, the chief secretary to Britain’s Treasury, said the move was necessary in order to put Britain’s recession-hit finances in order. Britain is struggling to control a record-high national debt topping 1 trillion pounds ($1.6 trillion).
Rosalie Otero, director of the University Honors Program, said multiterm registration may benefit upperclassmen but could be difficult for freshmen. “I suppose that one of the benefits would be that a student who is already on track with his or her major can then know a year in advance what they have to take and can schedule their jobs and lives around those classes,” Otero said. “But can you imagine a freshman who comes in the summer for their Lobo Orientation and they have to decide right then and there what they’re going to take for fall and spring?” Otero said the University administration hasn’t considered how much of a burden multiterm
registration will be for faculty. Research, sabbaticals and grants are rarely planned that far in advance, she said. “I don’t know exactly what other schools are doing (multiterm registration) around the country and ... what the data is that supports this as a good thing to do,” she said. “It just seems like someone made the decision to do this, and I’m not sure how much input they had from other people on campus.” Brown said multiterm registration is meant to help students. “It’s being introduced for students’ sake — it’s not for anybody else,” she said. “There is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes to make sure we meet the class demands of the students.”

From the web In Monday’s article “GPSA won’t back firing Locksley,” the Daily Lobo reported on a GPSA resolution passed Saturday that urges UNM not to terminate the head football coach, who is under fire after he had an altercation Sept. 20 with assistant coach Jonathan “J.B.” Gerald. The graduate student government recommends Locksley go to anger management and mediation sessions. Readers on DailyLobo.com responded: by ‘slowhike’ Posted Monday “What a disturbing and sad commentary on UNM’s GPSA. Locksley is not teaching anything positive to ‘his young men’ by sticking around; however, they will more clearly understand the benefits of status and political pull.” by ‘Yikes’ Posted Monday “I wonder how supportive they will be when a UNM faculty or staff person expresses the same behavior.” by ‘TZ’ Posted Monday “What a sad, sad day for the UNM community.… What is sad is that anyone outside of athletics would have been fired on the spot for the same infraction. GPSA has effectively lost all credibility at UNM for their blatant condoning of this heinous action, as well as their inability to even ask their constituents what they wanted. Without a proper survey, 15 students sitting in a room do not show the opinion of the majority of graduate and professional students. Now all we need is ASUNM to ask UNM to give Locksley a raise so that he won’t be so angry, and we will have a full house of loons.” by ‘Jay’ Posted Monday “It is laughable that an argument presented in favor of not dismissing Locksley is that his ‘young men’ will learn a valuable lesson about recovering from mistakes.… I am glad that Human Resources is handling this one — I even trust President Schmidly’s administration to be more reasonable on this one than your insular cabal of groupthinkers.” by ‘Danny Hernandez’ Posted Monday “To all who are displeased with the resolution the GPSA passed with regard to Coach Locksley’s alleged bad behavior: GPSA meeting agendas and supporting documents are clearly posted on the GPSA Web site and the agenda was on our door. Any of you could have attended the meeting and commented during the media-and-gallery portion of our meeting. If you did not, then we didn’t hear you. You need to tell us before we vote. After doesn’t do any good. If you’re a graduate or professional student: Please contact your representative(s) and tell him, her or them you are displeased. If your department didn’t have a representative present, then ask why they didn’t attend the meeting to represent your perspective. If your department does not have a representative, take the opportunity to represent your department at the GPSA Council. Meetings are a blast! If you’re not a graduate student: Get the ASUNM to pass a resolution that is to your taste.” Join the discussion at DailyLobo.com

‘Armed gunman’ text belittled women, befuddled recipients Editor, I received a text that left me both confused and offended. It stated that there was an “armed gunman” on campus.

Is “armed gunman” not redundant? Or could they possibly be re-

ferring to the fact that he has both a gun and a pair of arms? If the latter, why would they not call him legged as well, unless he had no legs? Should I be suspicious of anyone in a wheelchair? Furthermore, the automatic assumption that it was a man left me bewildered. Surely they cannot be assuming that a woman is incapable of carrying a gun, I thought. Surely we moved past that mind-set decades ago. Alas, the report itself had been unconfirmed. Given this fact, the term “gunperson” was most appropriate. The last thing we want to do is offend a person with a gun. This obvious affront to female
empowerment, the obfuscation of the situation through the use of confusing terms, and the lack of any sort of effort to correct these atrocities left me enraged. To think that this could come from my own town, let alone university, is disturbing to say the least. We need to move past this archaic mind-set, belittling female capability and befuddling critical situations through shoddy wording. Until then, we cannot be considered a world-class education institute.
indirect financial aid to Hamas.” Israel’s support for Hamas “was a direct attempt to divide and dilute support for a strong, secular Palestine Liberation Organization by using a competing religious alternative,” said a former senior CIA official. Fact or fiction? It’s worth researching. More to the point, however: Do Israel Alliance representatives who live in New Mexico presume to know more about the situation on the ground, better than an Israeli who grew up in Jerusalem, served in the Israel Defense Forces, and currently lives and
works there every day? Let the Israel Alliance folks show photos of Hamas horrors, and the Coalition for Peace and Justice in the Middle East will show photos of Israeli military horrors. This was just the start of more events to come. We invite the Israel Alliance to join in a panel discussion presenting all sides of the issue. Let’s have a dialogue around the pros and cons of the U.S. ending military aid to Israel.

Veils from page 1 neighboring Saudi Arabia, which practices the more conservative form of Wahhabi Islam. The trend seems to be gaining ground in the Arab world’s most populous country. There is no uniform religious opinion across the Muslim world about whether a head scarf — much less a face veil — is required. The majority of Islamic scholars say the face veil is not required but is merely a custom that dates back to tribal, nomadic societies living in the Arabian desert before Islam began. Sheik of al-Azhar Mohammed Sayyed Tantawi’s plans came to light when he told a middle school student in a class he was visiting earlier this week to take off her niqab. Tantawi was inspecting alAzhar’s schools at the start of the academic year to check on measures in place to stem the spread of swine flu, according to details of the visit published by the independent daily Al-Masry Al-Youm. Tantawi angrily told the girl that the niqab “has nothing to do with Islam and is only a custom” and made her take it off. He then announced he would soon issue an order banning girls from entering al-Azhar schools wearing the niqab.
Flu shots
“Niqab has nothing to do with Islam … I know about religion better than you and your parents,” the cleric was quoted as telling the student. Tantawi left Cairo late Sunday on a visit to Tajikistan and was not available for comment. Calls to his deputies went unanswered. However, Abdel Moati Bayoumi, a scholar in an al-Azhar-affiliated research center, said al-Azhar’s scholars would back Tantawi if he issues the order. “We all agree that niqab is not a religious requirement,” Bayoumi said. “Taliban forces women to wear the niqab … The phenomena is spreading” and it has to be confronted, he added. “The time has come.” Critics of the move, however, say the ban has little chance of being implemented. A previous directive by the minister of religious endowment to ban women preachers wearing the niqab from mosques was hotly contested. A ban on nurses wearing the full veil was announced last year, but not enforced. A researcher wearing the niqab who was prevented from using the library at the American University in Cairo in 2001 took her case to Egypt’s supreme court and eventually won. The court ruled a total ban on the niqab to be unconstitutional.
The court did recommend that women wearing the niqab be made to uncover their faces before female security guards to verify their identity. On Saturday, scores of female university students protested outside al-Azhar university dormitory calling for the repeal of the decision banning fully veiled women from entering. There were similar demonstrations at Cairo University. Sheik Safwat Hijazi, a scholar and preacher, said he would personally sue anyone who prevented his daughter or wife wearing full niqab from going about her daily life, including entering government offices. “Preventing a woman from wearing what she wants is a crime,” Hijazi said. “Whoever says the niqab is a custom is not respectable.” Hossam Bahgat, of the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights, said the series of government decisions against the niqab are “arbitrary,” and while designed to combat extremism, only end up being discriminatory against women. “The (veiled female students) are barred from government-subsidized housing and nutrition because they are considered extremists,” he said.
“We are unsure of that, but what we do know is that the swine flu is more likely to affect young people as opposed to older adults.” Either way, Frederick said concerned students should cover all their bases and get the standard flu shot before the swine flu vaccine
is available. SHAC wants to distribute as many vaccinations as possible in order to keep the student body healthy, Frederick said. “We want to make the vaccine readily available to a wide variety of people,” she said.

Paul Lamison / AP Photo University of South Florida Police and Tampa Police surround an area where a suspected gunman was taken into custody in Tampa, Fla., on Monday.
Gunman report locks down Fla. school by Christine Armario The Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — The University of South Florida was locked down for a time Monday after someone reported a man with a gun and a bomb near the library, and police had one person in custody. No one reported shots being fired or injuries. It was not immediately clear whether the person in custody was tied to the original report and whether it was real or a hoax. Students were told to return to their normal routine about three hours later. Campus police said they asked the Tampa police bomb team to investigate the belongings of the person in custody. Lt. Meg Ross, of the USF Police Department, said a man was apprehended after he stood up on a campus bus and stated that he was the person authorities were looking for.
Police responded to the scene and were able to get him off the bus. “As I understand it, he did respond to our commands,” Ross said. A second person who was reportedly carrying a knife on campus was detained, but police said they believe it was unrelated. The first call came in at 1:36 p.m. to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, which transferred it to campus police. A siren interrupted classes. An announcement over a loudspeaker said there was an intruder and students should stay inside and lock their doors, said Amanda Barnes, an 18-year-old international studies major. Administrators also sent several text messages to students. “A lot of people were like, ‘OK. I’m going to go up to my room, and no big deal,’” Barnes told The Associated Press. “A couple of people were like,
‘Oh my God. I’m so scared.’” Student Hannah Quill told the St. Petersburg Times what she saw and heard. “It sounded like one of those tornado alarms up north,” she said. “Everyone is like in classrooms on lockdown. I saw quite a few police cars heading towards the front of campus.” The name of the man who was on the bus was not released, and Ross could not say if he was a student. “We cannot determine as of yet whether it is the person we were looking for,” she said. “He’s being questioned and we’re trying to determine that at this point.” At about 3:30 p.m., police also reported a man wearing a black tank top and cowboy hat, carrying a black puppy and a large hunting knife on campus. Ross said the man was being questioned, but it didn’t seem related to the earlier report of a man carrying a gun and a bomb.

Corrales farm cultivates tradition by Chris Quintana Daily Lobo
Harvest-time visitors can get lost and find their inner children at Wagner’s Farmland Experience in Corrales. The farm, which is owned and operated by Roxanne Wagner and her husband, features a corn maze, apple orchards, pumpkin patches, hay rides and a farmers market, Wagner said.

“We give an appreciation of life on a farm,” she said. “(Visitors) tend to be more supportive of the farmer.” Wagner said the six-acre corn maze is the farm’s most notable draw. She said they opened the maze about seven years ago at the suggestion of visiting school teachers. “We used to get quite a few field trips from children,” she said. “We’d tour them around the market.

teachers wanted a more out-in-thefield experience, and so we started taking them out to the pumpkin patch and into the corn fields, and it evolved from there.” The maze’s shape changes every year, she said. This year the maze pays tribute to Rio Grande wildlife, as shapes of a coyote and a turtle are visible from the air, Wagner said. She said the farm features

Jory Vander Galien / Daily Lobo Roi Kuper in his home Monday. Kuper, UNM’s first artist in residence, will give a lecture tonight at the UNM Art Museum.
Looking for meaning in the NM landscape by Tomás Morález Daily Lobo
Roi Kuper is an Israeli landscape photographer and UNM’s first artist in residence. He has worked in England, France, Spain and Scotland. “Whenever I go somewhere to photograph landscapes, it’s not that I’m looking for an interesting landscape to photograph,” Kuper said. “I already know there is something interesting at the particular area, and I go there to find more interesting things within the landscape.” Kuper will give a lecture today at 5:30 p.m. at the UNM Art Museum. For his latest project, Kuper will photograph the Southwest and display his work at the gallery. Kuper said he began photographing 25 years ago in his homeland. One of his first projects, titled “Summer Day,” was a
collection of photographs taken in the Israeli countryside in the summer. Kuper said the theme of the project was a regular day in which people relax and don’t have a care in the world. “My projects don’t have a particular theme. Each one changes from project to project,” he said. Kuper said he enjoys photography because it helps him re-examine certain artistic aspects of life that he normally wouldn’t reconsider. He said a photo can be as expressive as the photographer wants it to be. “You can say what you want,” he said. “It’s a way to clear the dust from your beliefs.” Kuper has taught at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem and the Camera Obscura School of Art in Tel Aviv. He now teaches at the Academy of Shenkar in Ramat Gan, Israel. “I teach students how to think

Students find release in swing dancing Letterman scandal could turn into career kick start by Nicole Raz Daily Lobo
UNM junior Kevin Clark started dancing four years ago, thanks to his girlfriend at the time. Now he dances across the nation and is an active advocate for the growing dance scene at UNM. Swing dance is rooted in a sense of community, Clark said. “Swing is about making it a dance between two people rather than two people dancing while holding hands,” he said. Clark said he realized community was the focal point of this dance at his first out-of-state dance event in San Diego. “Sometimes you get jaded to your own dance community, just like any family,” he said. “Having everybody come together for this dance was phenomenal.” There are two major styles of swing dancing: Lindy hop and jitterbug, Clark said. “Jitterbug came out of Lindy hop, and not the other way around,” he said. “The film studios wanted to put Lindy hop in their movies, so they simplified it to a six count, which has

this has been one way to supplement our income,” Wagner said. “A lot of farmers have to sell off their land because they just can’t make it farming.” Eve Thompson, a regular visitor to the farm and a teacher’s aide at Sandia Day School, said the farm never fails to catch the interest of school children. “The students really love it, from kindergarten to the eighth grade,” Thompson said. “Just being there,

For the brave, Wagner said the maze remains open past dark on Saturday night. She said people are free to wander through the maze under the starry Corrales sky. “We have storytelling, hot chocolate, marshmallows and a bonfire,” she said. “We usually get the older kids then.” In addition to its tourist attractions, the Wagner farm is a full-time business with livestock and crops. “It’s tough being a farmer but

of hours and relax, without having anybody tell you what to do.” Jim Baca, former mayor of Albuquerque and New Mexico’s natural resources trustee, helped Brown and his dance group move into a dance space. “I think the youth dance scene is great,” Baca says. “It’s certainly a good way to keep kids occupied … and watch them have fun.” Baca said he was always a fan of dance, as he grew up watching his sister perform ballet. Clark also wanted to get involved in the rising dance scene. “I wanted to help create a community where young people could come and dance, and I wanted to be a part of that community,” he said. “Our goal is to try and expose as many college-aged people to the dance as we possibly can.”

Swing Dance
Heights Community Center 823 Buena Vista Dr. S.E. Tuesdays 7 - 11 p.m.
by Frazier Moore
The Associated Press David Letterman had his Hugh Grant moment. The question is whether his personal embarrassment will help fuel further professional triumph. How he deals with the situation at hand in the nights ahead could prove to be a defining chapter in his long TV career. With any luck, it could clinch his recent ratings victory in late-night TV. The intensely private Letterman surely didn’t want to be swept up in this maelstrom, which he dropped on “Late Show” viewers last Thursday with his startling revelations of having sex with women on his staff — a disclosure prompted by a $2 million blackmail threat against him. But the flood of attention was inevitable. For a celebrity the caliber of Hugh Grant, publicity — including speculation of career suicide — was certainly unavoidable 14 years ago, when he was arrested with a prostitute on Hollywood’s Sunset Strip. Very
embarrassing. But then he retreated to NBC’s “The Tonight Show” for image rehab. Host Jay Leno wasted no time before asking his instant classic of a question: “What were you thinking?!” Grant’s appearance vaulted ratings runner-up “Tonight” past Letterman’s CBS “Late Show,” a leadership position Leno held through his retirement from late night earlier this year. Since then, Letterman has reclaimed a ratings edge over new “Tonight” host Conan O’Brien. And now, Dave may have truly sealed the deal. With his masterful monologue last Thursday, he took control of a dicey situation. He promised his audience “a little story” and delivered in spades. He acknowledged his own past “creepy” behavior. He reminded everyone that he’s a guy “motivated by nothing but guilt.” Seated at his desk, he single-handedly gave a TV performance to equal the Jay-and-Hugh moment. Implicit in everything Dave said about his own behavior was the unspoken question: “What was I thinking?”

other kid-friendly attractions, such as a petting zoo with baby goats and miniature horses. For adults, the farm has a farmers market that offers fresh produce, including watermelons, green chile and tomatoes. There are also educational classes about the historical relevance and culture of farming. “That’s the cool thing about this: It’s an activity for a whole family,” Wagner said. “Everyone seems to have a good time.”

become jitterbug.” Clark is vice president of Jitterbugs Anonymous, UNM’s chartered swing dancing club. Clark teaches and DJs on Saturday evenings at the Orpheum Arts Space at the intersection of Second Street and Coal. Clark also dances at the Heights Community Center, where he said newcomers usually start by learning jitterbug. Desi Brown, one of the four people who started the swing dance at the Heights Community Center, has seen the crowd grow over the years. “We’ve been doing this for 11 years now,” Brown said. “We have a cool group of regulars who have been coming for five, six or seven years now (and) the same mix of people from high school and college.” Brown emphasized the safe atmosphere at the dance venue on Tuesday evenings, as well as the relaxed environment the dance space offers. “Our goal is to make sure everybody is safe,” Brown said. “It is a great break on a Tuesday night. It is a nice way to get out for a couple

it’s such a nice atmosphere, and it gives the kids a chance to run.” Thomas said that she also enjoys the quaint feel of the farm. “It’s just a beautiful place to be, there in the heart of Corrales,” she said. “It’s a very relaxed atmosphere for adults, too.” Wagner said the farm’s ultimate goal is to promote the tradition of the farming lifestyle. “We feel that we are doing it to keep farming alive,” Wagner said.
“It keeps things looking nice for the residents and passers-by.”

Colin Bridge / Daily Lobo Tortilla pizza is a cheap and quick idea for pizza lovers.
Colin’s
Collegiate Cooking by Colin Bridge Daily Lobo
Deep dish, thin crust, New York, Chicago or California — whatever form you pick, I’m guessing you love pizza like I do. Well, maybe not as much as I do. You see, I am a pizza addict.
The way I see it, in today’s world of diverse cooking and innovative cuisines we tend to overlook simple, classic dishes. Pizza is one of those classics. Whether you’re at the movies or sitting in a dorm room, pizza fits right in. It’s practically its own food group. Unfortunately, it is not always the
cheapest food, especially when you want to eat it for every meal like I do. Thankfully, there are options for us college students on a budget. When I was a kid my mom introduced me to the best snack in existence: The tortilla pizza. It’s exactly what it sounds like, is easy to make and tastes phenomenal.
italian
Tortilla Pizza Ingredients:
Flour Tortillas ($2.69 for a dozen) Tomato Sauce ($1.79 for a jar) (I recommend Preggo because it’s a little sweet) Muenster cheese ($2.59 for a half pound block) Any other toppings you’re into
It’s alright... your math homework can wait.

Turn on the broiler and let it heat up for a few minutes. Once the oven is hot, put in the tortilla and cook for a few minutes until it’s golden brown. Be careful, they can burn rather quickly. Flip the tortilla to brown the other side. Take the tortilla out of the oven and spread a few tablespoons of sauce over the top. Sprinkle on some grated cheese till it has covered the sauce. Add any additional ingredients you’d like. Place the pizza back into the broiler for about a minute, until the cheese is completely melted. Remove. Enjoy. Overall time from prep to finish is about four minutes per pizza, so you can pump out a dozen or so quickly and have a party sure to please all your friends. It’s as easy as that.
