Congressman talks grants, NM poverty by Ardee Napolitano news@dailylobo.com

Congressman Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.) said the Pell Grant is especially crucial to students in New Mexico. During his visit to UNM on Wednesday, Heinrich said that because New Mexico has high poverty levels and most New Mexicans in college are first-generation students, the Pell Grant is a great way to help disadvantaged students stay in school. According to the Census Bureau, the poverty rate in New Mexico in 2010-2011 was about 20 percent, compared to 18.8 percent in 2009-2010. According to the bureau, in 2011 the poverty rate nationwide was 15 percent. “We have one of the highest utilizations of the grant in the country, and they’re most often utilized by people who are the first person in their family to go to college,” Heinrich said. “If they get a college degree, the chances that their kids get a college degree is much higher.” Despite the current weakened state of the economy, Heinrich said investing in higher education in the state can solve unemployment. “We learned through this very tough recession that we’re finally getting out of, that people with college degrees only saw an unemployment rate of less than 5 percent,” he said. “That underscores just how much higher education is. Even in a tough economy, people with a good college degree can find a job.” Alex Bazan, president of College Democrats UNM, said that one of the issues New Mexico politicians should focus on is funding for higher education. She said Heinrich has been addressing the issue throughout his political run.

“A lot of our students are below the poverty line, so it’s important for things like Pell Grants to stick around,” she said. Heinrich said he hopes there will be a big student voter turnout during the election on Tuesday. He said the government should pay attention to issues concerning higher education. “I think (student voters) are an incredibly important part of the electorate, and they are the future voters that are going to make the decisions here in 20 years,” he said. “The more people who turn out, the more important their vote is. What I tell students is if you turn out and you vote, all the politicians will start to pay attention to you.” Bazan said the event was an opportunity for students to meet Heinrich, who is running for the U.S. Senate against Heather Wilson (R-N.M.), and get to know him better. “It’s really important for students to actually meet the people that they’re voting for and to get that one-on-one interaction with them,” Bazan said. “Especially with the higher ballot candidates that we usually don’t get to meet.” Bazan said meeting political candidates face-to-face will increase candidates’ credibility, because negative publicity often distorts the public’s views on political candidates. “It’s a great way to compare what they see in negative ads and make decisions on their own, rather than let such scripts make decisions for them,” she said. Heinrich declined to comment on Wilson’s campaign. “Whether you’re Republican or Democrat or Independent or Green, it doesn’t matter,” Heinrich said. “If you don’t vote, people won’t listen to you, so get out there and vote.”

Contest solicits ugly photos by Zuzanna Kajzer and Ardee Napolitano news@dailylobo.com

Students who want to see improvements made to unsightly areas of campus can submit a photo to the UNM Staff Council Environs Committee, which will select a winning location to be improved. The Ugly Duckling Contest, which is hosted by the committee, will allow students to provide the committee with input on which spaces on campus should be improved. Contestants should send pictures of landscapes that they believe need improvement, and can suggest how they would like the space to be arranged to look better. Senior University Communication Representative and project administrator Karen Wentworth said that in past years, the Staff Council has raised money for changes in several places on campus, but that this is the first time students can contribute by making their own suggestions through the contest. She said that in the past, the committee chose the areas that could be enhanced with the money they had, which included planting pear trees in the area in front of Johnson Center and plants near the Mechanical Engineering building. “Other people might have an idea what they would like to see improved,” she said. “It makes it easier to see what students think about that, and helps them

contribute in the whole process.” UNM student Audrey Ayala said the campus in general needs more trees, but that the areas outside the SUB and bus stops, such as the one next to Marron Hall, need plant life the most. “We don’t have a lot of vegetation there,” she said. “I like the idea of putting more trees.” Ayala said that it would be ideal if the University installed lights on trees in those areas and around the Duck Pond, which could be modeled on the multicolor lights at the Big-I. She said she wants the lights to change color and light up at night, which she said will beautify the campus. “Where I-25 and I-40 cross, there are some lights that change colors,” she said. “We can slip the lights under the trees and they can change colors, and it will make it look really nice.” Ayala said that while increasing vegetation near bus stops, the University can renovate stations so they can provide more shade to students waiting for shuttles. UNM student Megan Drechsel said that in addition to vegetation near the SUB, she would like to see the ramp that goes to Zimmerman Library be renovated. “I was in crutches for a while earlier this semester, and I found it kind of hard to get around,” she said. “It’s really scary up there. I wish we could make things more

visible in there.” Drechsel said that by altering the landscape of the area, the University can make the ramp less steep and more accessible to people using wheelchairs. “I think it can be more accessible for everybody … especially for people with disabilities,” she said. Wentworth said that funding for the project will be raised through donation jars at the bookstore on main campus and the Family and Community Medicine Center on north campus. She said that every cent counts and that anyone can help beautify the campus by donating spare change. “We think that everybody thinks about what the campus looks like, and this is a way to concretely help us improve, at least in a small part,” she said.

Dorm rooms and apartments may be small and leave little room for personal touches, but one way to add flair to your space is by planting an indoor garden. In order to ensure your private garden thrives, the Daily Lobo met with “Madelyn,” a gardener at Rehm’s Nursery and Garden Center on Lomas Boulevard to learn how to plant a garden in a small space.

Step 1 Determine which direction your windows face before you begin gardening. If your window faces north,

you won’t have as much sunlight, so your choice of plants is limited, unless you purchase plant-growing lights. If your window faces south, consider plants that will tolerate constant sunlight, such as cactuses, because the harsh light will damage most plants. Western and eastern facing windows are ideal because sunlight is less harsh and won’t harm your plants.

Step 2 Consider watering patterns. College students are often busy, so you may want to choose

to plant a garden

plants that are easier to maintain, such as succulents, which require almost no care whatsoever. You can ask a representative at your local nursery, or check on the back of the seed package.

Step 3 Pick a potting soil. Fertilizer chemicals can burn potted plants, so stay away from potting soil with fertilizer mixed in. If you do choose to fertilize, only do so once a year, and be sure to use half as much fertilizer as the instructions recommend.

Step 4

Tips

Don’t overwater. The trickiest part to making your garden thrive is using the proper watering technique. Overwatering is the number one killer of plants. When watering any kind of plant, make sure that the water doesn’t pool below the plant in the pot. Be sure to pay attention to watering instructions for each plant in your garden, because some plants require special watering techniques, such as ferns, which should be misted rather than watered directly onto the soil.

• • •

• •

Choose indoor plants for indoor gardens. Repot your plants at least every other year. When repotting, don’t increase the size of the pot any more than two inches in diameter. Use terra-cotta pots to ensure airflow through the soil. Use drainage pans beneath your pots to keep excess water from running.

CORRECTION The article “City mulls adding bus-only lanes to Central,” published in Tuesday’s Daily Lobo incorrectly stated, “The (city’s) plan will convert the two middle lanes of the street into bus-only lanes, and will allot only one lane for personal vehicle traffic in each direction.” The City of Albuquerque Transit Department does not yet have a plan for Central Avenue; it is in the process of consulting the public and asking for input in order to formulate a plan. While the department is considering the possible conversion of a lane in each direction on Central Avenue into bus-only lanes, it does not intend to

reduce the number of lanes for personal vehicle traffic to only one lane in each direction. The article also stated, “(City of Albuquerque Transit Department Director Bruce Rizzieri) said since the Rapid Ride systems were put in place, ridership increased from 9 million to 13 million people per year and that the number continues to increase, contrary to the city’s expectations.” These numbers represent an increase in ridership on all bus lines, not just the Rapid Ride systems. The article also attributed to Rizzieri that in 2009 “the city tried to put a plan to improve transportation on

Central Avenue into place but could not afford to do so.” There was not a plan in 2009. The article stated, “Rizzieri said a similar study is being conducted for University Boulevard and that it is possible that a bus rapid transit will be installed along University Boulevard as well. But he said the city has not decided whether to push this plan through and that a budget estimate has not yet been determined for the project.” It should be clarified that the University Boulevard project is not being conducted by the city. The error was made in reporting.

Column

Climate change only worsens as we ignore it by Will Thomson

Daily Lobo columnist opinion@dailylobo.com As many of us watched the presidential debates, there was one incredibly important issue that was glaringly absent from the dialogue. This issue was climate change. Indeed, this is the first time since 1984 that the candidates have not discussed the topic of climate change. While many, understandably, have been most concerned about issues of jobs and the economy, climate change seems to have become viewed during this election as a fringe issue that is only the concern of special interest groups. However, we cannot forget and must remind our politicians that climate change is something that has affected and will continue to affect everyone. While some still question the manmade causes of climate change, this is not a debate among scientists. A report by the National Academy of Sciences showed that 97 percent of scientists believe that current climate change is a man-made phenomenon, and that the 3 percent who remain unconvinced have lower expertise and training than the other 97 percent. Climate change is happening and it will impact all of us. Some of the recent victims of climate change are those residents of New York and New Jersey who are recovering from damage caused by the superstorm Sandy. This storm is the largest to ever hit the East Coast, leaving millions without power and causing an estimated $20 billion in property damage. While of course one cannot say that climate change caused a specific event such as this storm, climate scientists have concluded that changes in climate make such extreme weather events more frequent and severe. One scientist from the National Center for Atmospheric Research explained that the higher than normal temperature of the sea’s surface helped fuel and intensify this tropical storm. Besides this catastrophic incident, over the summer we have also seen one of the more widespread impacts of climate change: persistent and devastating drought. Two-thirds of the U.S. suffered moderate or severe drought, and we weren’t the only country affected. In addition, many crops worldwide were down in production because of this global drought, causing the prices of food staples to rise. We experienced the impacts of our changing climate in New Mexico, too. Nearly all of New Mexico continues to grapple with some level of drought and these conditions are forecast to continue. Albuquerque in particular has been hit badly, with the smallest amount of rainfall in the first five months of the year since 1892, when the state began to keep climate records. These conditions have bolstered wildfires and hurt farmers and ranchers who rely on the rainfall for irrigation. Climate change is not going away if we ignore it. Quite the opposite, for as we put it on the back burner, as we have in this election cycle, it continues to get worse. We have to let our representatives know that this is an issue that is important and also linked to other problems facing our country.

Letters

Mourdock, Akin don’t speak for GOP Editor’s note: This letter is in response to the political cartoon published in Friday’s Daily Lobo. Editor, What is your issue with overgeneralized political cartoons? I normally don’t mind them — they are there for a purpose, even if that purpose is to incite volatile discussion through the biased viewpoints of an editorial artist at the cost of the targeted party in question. Friday’s cartoon, however, crossed every line of moral decency possible, and I’m honestly surprised you had the gall to print it. To generalize the entirety of the Republican Party as religious fanatics driving their support of rape as “God’s will” is atrocious. Let me be clear: One person said that. Sen. Richard Mourdock

of Indiana, who just so happens to be Republican, made the statement that “Even if life begins with that horrible situation of rape, that is something that God intended to happen.” These are the words of one individual lost in delusions of grandeur. So why, in your cartoon, do you not include a photo or political interpretation of Mourdock, and instead use the symbol of the Republican Party as a whole? These are the actions of one person with his own set of beliefs. I find, however, that an individual voicing his own opinion is much less insulting than the blanket accusation you decided to put out in that cartoon. It is insulting to Republicans who have common sense, it is insulting to those who support pro-life for other morals and beliefs, and to top it off it serves no purpose other than to incite a false opinion

in the populace about the party. Because according to you, Daily Hobo, I am a religious fanatic who supports the callous rape of innocent women under the Holy Lord’s name. Leave these blatant political generalizations out of the University newspaper. Yeah, there are Republicans like Mourdock and Rep. Todd Akin with his comment about legitimate rape, but it is a small sample of delusional individuals who are also Republican. Just because one delusional fanatic said something stupid does not mean every Republican is going to follow like lemmings. Do not loop me, or any decent person with a brain, into your circle of ignorance. If you want to be inflammatory for the sake of being inflammatory, take it elsewhere. Scott Schaller Daily Lobo reader

Despite misconceptions, rape is not about a woman being dragged into a dark alleyway by a man in a trench coat. Rape is also not about having sex then having the woman regret her decision. Rape is not merely just sex, but an act of power and violence of one human being over another (especially true about someone who the woman knows well). Regardless of what society thinks, the victim did nothing to deserve all the pain (physically and emotionally) she went through. Telling the victim that it is her fault only slows her recovery. There are many lifelong effects that come associated with rape, including symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (e.g. nightmares and flashbacks), spending months or years in counseling, significant drops in grades and trust issues. Rape is already hard enough for a woman to deal with, let alone having other people giving

her a hard time about the situation. Rape is never OK and there is no excuse for it. There is also no excuse for making fun of rape victims. We are not to judge others or joke about topics as sensitive as rape. We don’t know other people’s struggles in life and never know what someone else might be going through. Next time, Daily Lobo, think about what you post and whom it might affect. Sharon Sullivan UNM student

Rape jokes retraumatize survivors

Editor’s note: This letter is in response to the political cartoon published in Friday’s Daily Lobo. Editor,

I found your political cartoon for Friday to be highly offensive. The cartoon depicts a woman with a note taped onto her T-shirt that says, “Rape me! God says it’s OK!” I know that these cartoons are supposed to be funny, but for women who have been affected by rape, it will not seem funny at all. The problem with rape is that it is the only crime in which the victim is blamed. More often than not, the victim is afraid to come forward due to self-blame and fear of what people think of her. Her perpetrator rarely (if ever) gets punished for what he did to her.

Yellowcard has crafted quite a name for itself in the pop-punk community, and its past two albums have led the group out of its 2007 emo dirge. Touring alongside newcomers The Wonder Years, Yellowcard continues to prove that older bands of the genre still have a bit of punch to their music.

Jawbreaker influences on their Hot Water Music T-shirt sleeves. This Pennsylvania group is a reminder that tough guys can still write songs about their feelings. For Your Consideration: “Secret Society” is known for its thumping bass intro and hoarse vocal cords, but is famous for its VHS music video in which a thwarted teenage girl cuts off the face of her secret admirer and wears it. Yeah, it’s gross.

For Your Consideration: “Wish it Was True” is a down-and-out Southern slow song, meant to be listened to beside a crackling campfire as you stare off into the montañas and think of better times.

The White Buffalo Low Spirits Sunday, Nov. 18 at 7 p.m. $12 21+

The Russian-American surf-rock band Red Elvises is known best not by music lovers, but by indie-film lovers. This old school rock ‘n’ roll band was featured in and wrote the soundtrack for the cult classic “SixStringed Samurai,” a post-apocalyptic late ‘90s film about a sword-wielding Buddy Holly. For Your Consideration: “Love Pipe” sees the Red Elvises playing up to its genre’s typical song structure, with shaky guitar

The White Buffalo’s Jake Smith is a somber, sad man. With a trembling voice that would make Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder nervous, Smith is a never-ending sad song with a grizzled beard and an American flag draped across his back.

While the band’s newest album slowed things down a bit, Born of Osiris still knows how to have a good time with blistering percussion and exaggerated growls.

Burlesque

Performers revive vintage art form

by Nicole Perez

culture@dailylobo.com photos by Juan Labreche

A naked woman sprayed glitter into her hair, teasing it with her other hand, in a tiny changing room backstage at Low Spirits Bar & Stage. She strutted onstage to a track by Slim Shady, wearing a vest and suit pants, and stripped down to a thong and pasties, all the while playing with pink daggers and a noose. And according to burlesque performer Vivian MirAnn, self-confidence and body image are the last things on performers’ minds. “I think we all go through our fat days and our thin days. It is live theater, so you have to be really confident to roll with it,” MirAnn said. “It becomes less of a body issue and more comfortable with, if something gets hung up, can I find the string to my mask? Can I get my corset off? When you go through the paces of taking off clothing, you kind of forget to think ‘Does my stomach look good? Are my thighs fat?’” MirAnn was the founder, director and executive director of this year’s Son of the Creepshow Peepshow, a burlesque show held once a year at Low Spirits. Performers of all shapes and sizes flocked from Georgia, Colorado and Tennessee to show Albuquerque how they move their hips, jiggle their junk and dance their asses off. Performer Helen Wheels said she saw an ad for burlesque ladies’ nights in her local newspaper, and although it took her a while to be comfortable with her body, she said it wasn’t long before she was a full-fledged performer. “I wanted something to do that was just for me, and have a lot of fun,” she said. “Because I’m a bigger girl, I wasn’t sure that I could do it,

but some of the best performers in the country are our bigger girls, and it is so much fun. It took me a while to get there, it really did, but just the support and the reaction is really what brings it to me and makes me feel more comfortable and more empowered.” Heather “Marquix Coquette” Wilkinson said burlesque was a natural transition from dance, which she did when she was younger.

“We try and behave like ladies and do well onstage,” ~Vivian MirAnne Son of the Creepshow Peepshow director “It just came naturally; I’m okay being naked, I like to dance, I like people cheering for me, I like being the center of attention, so it just worked out for me,” Wilkinson said. “I don’t do my hair, I don’t do makeup normally during the day, and I have so much fun; it’s like getting to be a different person.” Wheels was a guest performer from Colorado Springs, and the Peepshow also featured the burlesque troupe Tease ‘n Tassels, of which MirAnn is a member. Tease ‘n Tassels is currently on a tour across the United States, and will barely make enough money to cover the travel costs. MirAnn, an Albuquerque native, said the burlesque community was wary when Tease ‘n Tassels formed, because its members thought audiences would get bored with more frequent shows. “We were told that Albuquerque’s too poor, too working class, and they wouldn’t support it,” she said. “But burlesque

actually historically belongs to the working class. We knew if we could get the word out there that these performances were happening and not gear them to be a highbrow theater kind of thing, that we would appeal to the masses.” MirAnn works as a tattoo artist, and because the burlesque business isn’t lucrative, she said most performers make their own costumes. MirAnn has more than 230 sewing patterns for vintage dresses, bras, slips and leggings, and she said she raids thrift stores for material. Even when something is brand new, she said it often has to be modified for easy removal. “It has to be cut or modified so that it can come off easily,” she said. “Underwear is usually very heavily modified. It’s a lot of rhinestoning, a lot of sequins, a lot of fringe, a lot of embellishments. It’s very rare that something comes off the rack and winds up onstage unchanged.” MirAnn said burlesque differs from stripping and pornography because there’s a theatrical element to the shows. The strips often tell a story, and the audience doesn’t have as much interaction with the dancers: it’s literally a peep show. “We try and behave like ladies and do well onstage, and not be raunchy and not be like a strip, what people would expect from TD’s,” she said. “They (the audience) know it’s not prostitution, it’s not grabbygrabby. I think it’s a little more reverent, people treat it a little more respectfully.”

Burlesque’s Backstory

Burlesque is an 120-year-old, purely American art form, according to The Son of the Creepshow Peepshow executive director Vivian MirAnn. She said the roots of burlesque began in Great Britain, when performers dressed as the opposite sex and performed comedy skits. The female performers would never show much of their bodies to the crowd, but the performances were still considered raunchy for their time. “The fact that they had corsets on or they might show an ankle, and that was considered really risqué,” she said. When the performance style traveled to the United States, Americans took it a little further, flaunting wrists and lower décolletages. Eventually, Americans were baring everything for the world to see. But MirAnn said the idea of teasing the audience with bare skin remains, no matter how far the performer goes. “The tease was always a principle part of burlesque. It wasn’t ‘Let’s get our clothes off as fast as possible,’ it was ‘Do I show you, or do I not? Do you want to see? Oh no you don’t,’” she said. “It’s always very teasing.” MirAnn said burlesque used to be accompanied by sideshow acts such as fire eating, sword swallowing and juggling. But when it was revived in the ‘90s, she said the sideshows were left in the dust. MirAnn always tries to include sideshows in the performances she organizes, because she said she wants to stay true to the art form’s roots.

“After a while, people go what they call ‘titty blind,’ so after you stare at girl after girl after girl, you just see a vacuum,” she said. “If you shake it up every few acts, people aren’t expecting it and it’s like ‘Whoa, oh my God, someone’s taking their clothes off.’ It keeps things fresh and they don’t know what’s happening.” Burlesque has evolved from peeping ankles to almost full nudity, and MirAnn said each state has individual laws that dictate how much skin can be shown. In Tennessee, the crease under the breast cannot be shown in a public venue, but MirAnn said one of her friends is trying to overturn that rule. “It’s completely illegal to show the crease of the breast, but one of our friends is mired in a court battle to change that,” she said. “She started the underboob liberation front.”

Burlesque performers consider themselves to be theater performers, distinguishing them from strippers, and MirAnn said they never have problems with sexual harassment. photo top Maleficent Allure performs at Low Spirits on Saturday night during The Son of the Creepshow Peepshow. A mental health therapist by trade, Allure said all members of the Duke City Darlins burlesque troupe are professionals, which she believes alleviates the stigma surrounding burlesque shows.

Natalia Jacquez / Daily Lobo Artist Cindy Farslow of Dancing Dolphins Art paints faces kitty-style Sunday at the Howl-O-Ween Cat Show at Expo New Mexico. All proceeds from her face painting at the show went towards F.A.T KATZ, a foster-based cat rescue group.

by Megan Underwood culture@dailylobo.com

A large, spotted cat desperately attempted to crawl out of his spider costume. He clawed at the fuzzy legs and dragged himself across the table, trying to save himself from the humiliation of being put in costume.

Eventually, he allowed the judge to pick him up, but another cat in a devil costume beat him out for first prize. The cat costume contest was just one of the highlights of the HowlO-Ween Cat Show on Saturday and Sunday at Expo New Mexico. The show was hosted by the Enchanted Cat Club of Albuquerque, part of The International Cat Association (TICA). Cat shows are similar to dog shows: pedigreed cats are shown, judged and given awards in different breed categories. House cats without pedigrees may also be shown. The Howl-O-Ween show featured around 150 cats of varying breeds. TICA President Vickie Fisher said cat shows have grown in popularity and the organization has hundreds of cat clubs worldwide. “What’s exciting is that in areas around the world where animal fancies (clubs) hadn’t been popular are starting to get interest,” she said. “Places where cats have not been valued well, or even eaten.” Fisher said that holding shows like this helps raise the value of cats in society, because people can see how good they are to have as companion animals. She said that each TICA show donates profits to support local animal shelters and rescues. In New Mexico, proceeds have been used to help fund the leopards, lions and other big cats at the Rio Grande Zoo. Proceeds have also gone to the Albuquerque Cat Action Team and New Mexico Animal Friends. Cat shows have a bigger presence around the world, but Enchanted

Cat Club President Pat Harding said shows have seen a drop in contestants due to costs. Taking a cat on a plane can cost around $200, on top of the ticket price. People who want to show their animals are also subject to extra hotel fees, entrance fees and other travel costs. It is also costly for the club to bring in judges and organize the events. Despite the drop in the number of entrants, Harding said those who do participate create a tight-knit, caring community. “One of the great things about showing at TICA is that everyone’s a family,” she said. “We’re all a great big group of wandering minstrels.” Donna Armel, one of the judges of the competition, drove all the way from Houston, Texas, to judge the competition. At the shorthair booth, Armel poked and prodded the entrants in the shorthair competition, explaining to the audience the unique features of each breed. For example, Siamese cats have slim figures, blue eyes and dark coloring on their faces and extremities, called points. Each cat is compared to the standards of its breed, which is how Armel decides which cat takes first place. The award went to a black Persian cat. Armel said it takes seven years to become a judge for TICA and that an applicant must also take a test that requires several months of preparation. She said judging cat shows has become a great outlet for her. “This is what keeps me going in my day job,” she said. “This is what keeps me sane.”
