‘We bungled,’ administrators say

Lawyer says Gerald was not asking for ‘hush money’ from University by Isaac Avilucea Daily Lobo

Amie Zimmer / Daily Lobo Athletics Director Paul Krebs, right, answers a reporter’s question during a press conference in the SUB on Wednesday. Krebs, Vice President for Human Resources Helen Gonzales and UNM President David Schmidly sought to clarify the incident involving a physical altercation between head football coach Mike Locksley and assistant coach J.B. Gerald. “We’re embarrassed by the whole situation,” Schmidly said in his opening remarks.

Julian Haffner, the lawyer representing former wide receivers coach J.B. Gerald, said the University is attempting to discredit his client by claiming he told UNM his grievance could be washed away if the University paid him $500,000. According to a University-issued timeline provided at Wednesday’s news conference, Haffner presented the University with a letter on Oct. 1 offering continued media silence in exchange for a $500,000 settlement. UNM President David Schmidly said the letter immediately brought up questions in his mind about Gerald’s intentions. “There were several actions there that were disturbing,” he said. “One was, ‘Give us money, and we won’t saying anything about this.’ That, in my opinion, would have been completely unethical on the part of the University. … (So), I outright refused it. I turned it over to our legal staff and told them that the answer was ‘No.’ Subsequently, there were efforts on the part of that attorney to interview some of our people without seeking our permission.” Late Wednesday night, in a phone interview with the Daily Lobo, Haffner fired back. “At no time did he condition his silence on the payment of that money,” he said. “For them to characterize it like that is a blatant misconstruction of the fact.” Haffner said the letter, which the University received Oct. 1, said that Gerald sought to settle the issue inhouse rather than play back-and-forth media games.

Three UNM administrators try to clarify Locksley incident at press conference by Isaac Avilucea Daily Lobo

Straight from UNM President David Schmidly: The University of New Mexico “bungled” its investigation into the Sept. 20 physical altercation between first-year head coach Mike Locksley and former wide receivers coach J.B. Gerald. Flanked on the right by Athletics Director Paul Krebs and on the left by Vice President of Human Resources Helen Gonzales, Schmidly repeatedly denied that the University concealed any findings of its investigation. “At this point, I have seen no evidence of a cover-up as many people have alleged,” he said. “We bungled the process … and we have already taken steps to correct and refine our procedures. But, and I want to repeat this. I am not

aware of any direct evidence that would suggest a cover-up.” Challenging accusations aimed at Krebs and Gonzales by the public that the Athletics Department worked closely with Human Resources in not disclosing the full facts about the incident, Schmidly said he’s confident that Krebs and Gonzales did their jobs separately. Krebs, too, defended his statements and decisions. “In my 30 years in this business, I have never had my integrity challenged,” Krebs said. “I’ve been known in this profession for being honest, for being candid, for being decisive and for transparency and the ability to make tough decisions. Did I cover anything up? Absolutely no. I misapplied University policy when conducting the investigation.” But emerging details suggest

otherwise. Schmidly admitted that the original copy of HR investigator Shannon Garbiso’s handwritten notes have been destroyed, but not before copies were distributed to UNM’s Human Resources. Gonzales said Garbiso wasn’t aware that she was to keep record of any documentation pertinent to the case prior to their formal investigation. “Ms. Garbiso informed me yesterday, when she said that she hadn’t kept the notes, that she never thought that those were official University documents, that those were only her own notes as a result of an informal inquiry she was doing in the department,” Amie Zimmer / Daily Lobo Gonzales said. Garbiso, an HR At least 100 people gathered in the SUB Lobo room Wednesday to hear UNM administrators give their account of the Locksley-Gerald incident.

Safety an issue after ‘Coronado Creeper’ National program offers rewarding teaching jobs by Pat Lohmann Daily Lobo

All three of the doors opened by the “Coronado Creeper” last Tuesday night had doorknobs that did not lock automatically. The “Creeper” broke into Coronado Hall and entered three unlocked rooms. He burglarized one woman’s room and touched two other women in their sleep. Katie Dedman, who was awakened by the suspect before 4 a.m.,

said she had forgotten to lock her bedroom door before she went to sleep. “Some doors automatically lock from the inside and others don’t for some reason,” she said. “Our neighbor’s door just automatically locks.” UNM’s residence halls have two kinds of doorknobs — some have a dead bolt above the knob requiring the door to be re-locked when entering and leaving, and others lock automatically when they’re closed. Patrick Call, director of

Residence Life and Student Housing, said he does not know why there are inconsistent locking devices in residents’ rooms. “The locking mechanisms of what they used and what they didn’t use are all before my time, so I can’t tell you why there’s two different kinds,” he said. Call said an eight-year renovation plan for all the dorms is underway. The renovation will

representative for athletics, conducted the initial inquiry into the allegations that Locksley punched and choked Gerald during a coaches’ meeting. Her findings concluded that Gerald was indeed choked, as this was verified by three assistant coaches who were present when the incident occurred — Mike Degory, Cheston Blackshear and Tee Martin. Degory, according to the notes, told Garbiso that Locksley “reached out and started choking (Gerald)” and was “swinging” at Gerald as Degory attempted to restrain the firstyear head coach. Blackshear and Martin had nearly identical accounts. Marin told Garbiso, “All of a sudden, coach Locks was grabbing Gerald around the throat choking him.” According to the handwritten notes, Blackshear told Garbiso that Locksley “grabbed Gerald by the shirt and started choking him.” Those preliminary findings,

however, have been ignored in favor of the results from the official HR probe, which was conducted by Helen Gonzales in the presence of a lawyer. At an Oct. 13 press conference, Krebs said the formal HR investigation found no witnesses to verify that Locksley actually threw a punch. Gonzales said no documents or recordings were produced through the course of the investigation apart from notes jotted down by a lawyer, which are protected pending litigation from Gerald. University officials stopped short of saying Garbiso or her notes are void of credibility. “I think it’s important to note that Shannon Garbiso is not a Human Resources employee,” Gonzales said. “She works for the Athletics Department and is not trained in conducting investigations. Shannon took some notes and put on there recollections of what the individual said.

as they were made.” While maintaining that no witness definitively stated Gerald was punched or choked, as documented in Garbiso’s notes, Gonzales said she wasn’t suggesting Garbiso wasn’t thorough or misheard interviewees. “I want to be clear that I’m not saying that Shannon was off base,” she said. “I’m saying that Shannon did not write what the individuals said. I heard different things about choking. I did hear what some people said ‘might have been choking.’” Considering it was in a dimly lit room in Tow Diehm Facility on South Campus, Gonzales said, the discrepancies between assistants’ stories could be a product of how quickly the event transpired. “There were six different accounts of what happened,” she said. “I think it’s important to remember it was a dark room — there was film being viewed. It all happened in the course of a few seconds. And all of the interviews showed different things.” Assistant Culture Editor Chris Quintana Sports Editor Isaac Avilucea Assistant Sports Editor Mario Trujillo Copy Chief Elizabeth Cleary Opinion Editor Eva Dameron Multimedia Editor Joey Trisolini Design Director Sean Gardner Classified Ad Manager Antoinette Cuaderes Ad Manager Steven Gilbert

TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras — Ousted President Manuel Zelaya is asking the Obama Administration why, after pressing for his reinstatement, it now says it will recognize upcoming Honduran elections even if he isn’t returned to power first. In a letter sent to the U.S. State Department on Wednesday, Zelaya asked Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton “to clarify to the Honduran people if the position condemning the coup d’etat has been changed or modified.” His request came after Washington’s top envoy to Latin America, Thomas Shannon, told CNN en

Espanol that Washington will recognize the Nov. 29 elections even if the Honduran Congress decides against returning Zelaya to power. A U.S.-brokered deal reached last week leaves Zelaya’s reinstatement in the hands of Congress, but sets no deadline as to when lawmakers must decide. Delays in the expected vote have generated fears in the Zelaya camp. “Both leaders took a risk and put their trust in Congress, but at the end of the day the accord requires that both leaders accept its decision,” Shannon said. The U.S. has repeatedly pressed for Zelaya’s reinstatement.

standardize the furniture, flooring and doorknobs of all dorm rooms, but Call said he does not know how secure the standardized locks will be or how soon they will be installed. Besides the individual locks on each resident’s door, there are also locks on the residence hall’s exit doors. Every resident is given a perimeter key to enter his or her residence hall. Call said that, while this adds some security to the residence hall, there are ways to get around the perimeter door locks. “That’s one of the difficulties in

keeping students’ doors open,” he said. “If he looks like a student, people are nice people and they hold the door open.” Call said members of RLSH examined each perimeter door after the incident last Tuesday and found no signs of forced entry. “Once we were notified that there was somebody in the building, we went to verify that all the doors of the building were locked and secured, so he had to get in the building following a resident,” he said. RLSH also posted signs the day after the Coronado incident reminding

President Barack Obama was explicit in a speech this summer: “America supports now the restoration of the democratically elected President of Honduras.” In Washington, State Department spokesman Ian Kelly said Wednesday that the United States considers what happened in Honduras a coup and that Zelaya should be reinstated, but he said the focus now should be on implementing last week’s deal between the ousted president’s representatives and the interim government of Roberto Micheletti. “We’ve made our position on President Zelaya and his restitution clear. We believe he should be restored to power,” Kelly said. “Our focus now is on implementing this process and creating an environment wherein Hondurans themselves can address the issue of restitution and resolve for themselves this Honduran problem.” The deal left reinstatement in the hands of Congress, but hours after shaking hands, Zelaya and others indicated a behind-the-scenes arrangement had been made with Congress to reinstate him.

“This signifies my return to power in the coming days, and peace for Honduras,” he said. His comments, and U.S. approval of the deal, left many believing Congress was ready to put him back in office. “I think it was sort of assumed that there was a deal with Congress to reinstate him,” said Dana Frank, a historian at the University of California, Santa Cruz. “But the U.S. negotiators may have underestimated the sheer nutso chaos of Honduran politics.” The leaders of Honduras’ Congress said Tuesday they would consult the courts and prosecutors before deciding when to submit the measure to the full Congress for debate, which they said could be after the elections. Congressional secretary Roberto Lara said lawmakers are still waiting to hear the opinions from the Supreme Court, which ordered Zelaya’s ouster, the human rights commissioner, and the country’s prosecutors, who charged him with betraying the homeland, abuse of power and other crimes.

while others are like, ‘Go somewhere else’ or ‘Try this office and see what they can give you’ … Usually it’s kind of a runaround, but sometimes I’ll run into good advisers that will tell me what I need to do, but for the most part I’ve gotten a lot of my advice from Financial Aid.”

Call encouraged students to question individuals if they try to enter residence halls without a key, and he said oncampus students should understand what is required to secure their dorm rooms. “There has to be some self-responsibility in there,” he said. “Those folks have been living in those halls since August.” Also, Call said emergency alert buttons are installed throughout the interior of each dorm, and RLSH posted signs last Wednesday to remind students to lock their doors.

Letters Murthy letter not well-written enough to be called satire Editor, I am writing in response to Victor Murthy’s column on obesity. Among the reader responses online, there’s a contention by some that the column is fashioned as a satire “in the spirit of Jonathan Swift.” If that’s the case, then it is what some would call an “epic fail.” Swift’s piece about making fricassee out of children is clearly not meant to be taken seriously, despite the appalling nature of this “modest proposal.” Murthy’s piece is poorly written, not amusing and lacking in any rhetorical or literary devices that constitute a “political satire.” However, if this is not the case, and Murthy’s intent was to publish a self-flagellating and hateful piece of tripe, then he has succeeded. He is lucky indeed if he is so privileged that his idea of being subjected to “atrocity” is having to look at a fat person. It’s a travesty that such a well-reasoned, cultured and fundamentally useful person must suffer such offense to his aesthetic sensibilities. Of course, such a sublimely beautiful and perfectly formed Adonis has every right to be cruel to these gross and subhuman creatures who obviously have no souls — only the evil intent to make a horrid spectacle with which to scar his fragile psyche. I’m appalled, not only by this flagrant display of ignorant and callous bigotry, but also by the fact that space was given to such a ration of nonsense. One editor states that opinions are considered for publication if the writer uses “an accessible line of reasoning.” Apparently The Daily Lobo considers graphic and vulgar defamation perfectly reasonable. Some are apparently of the opinion that hearing such a “brutally honest” message will incite people to lose weight and dress “appropriately,” when the reality is that subjecting people to more of the socially-sanctioned abuse leveled against overweight people will only serve to contribute to the cycles of shame, depression and body dysmorphia that exacerbate obesity. Our culture dehumanizes fat people and treats them like criminals. We bombard them with ridicule, abuse, job discrimination, harassment and violence. We don’t bother to inform ourselves on the causes of obesity and the cost of eating well. We pass judgment without considering the effects of body dysmorphic disorder, bulimia, anorexia and depression on metabolism, or how imposing a negative body image on people contributes to all of these and, further more, can sap the will or energy to improve one’s appearance. I suggest that Victor Murthy develop some empathy or, at the very least, consider the potential effects of his cruel, bourgeois spew on its recipients. Additionally, I urge the Daily Lobo to consider adopting a higher standard for publishing that might spare us all from being subjected to the atrocity of poorly written, defamatory twaddle. I advocate free speech. However, all speech, especially hate speech, has real and visceral consequences. We should remember that and think twice before running our loud, contemptuous mouths.

Letters Obesity letter should have addressed the real problem Editor, This is in response to the Victor Murthy column published on Tuesday: I agree with you that obesity and weight-related conditions are a current and future problem here at UNM, but I felt your column attacks the people who are overweight, and not the issue of obesity and weight-related issues directly. More specifically, your column highlights a dislike of overweight people for rather vain and selfish reasons — they offend your visual sensibilities. Indeed, you make a point by stating that, “The problem here isn’t really the health issue, but the aesthetic issue” in the third paragraph. You used the rather caustic term of “visual atrocities” to describe their choice of clothing options as well. Indeed the entire premise of your column was to highlight how other people’s fashion sense with relation to their weight offends you. Do you or did you ever consider the social, biologi-

Practice free speech, but exercise respect, responsibility Editor, Yes, it’s fun to read the writing of the few sardonic dimwits who write into the Daily Lobo about things that don’t matter and are honestly a waste of our time to read, but the issue is that some people have no respect for others and feel like they can say whatever they want without any reason, and that can often offend people. I first started reading the article, “It’s time for UNM’s fat people to change their ways,” in the Daily Lobo because it looked informative for overweight people to stay healthy or become fit. I was totally wrong. It was demoralizing and just straight up mean. The comments that were made, like, “the real problem that plagues the UNM campus: fat people,” “put

cal and emotional health of those individuals who are overweight or obese? Did it ever cross your mind to inform Daily Lobo readers of a few basic facts about obesity? You could have talked about how obesity increases the chances that a person will develop diabetes, hormone-related cancers and coronary artery disease. You could have also talked about how obesity increases the likelihood of developing chronic conditions related to weight like lower-back pain, acute stress and knee and other joint pain. Did you ever feel like mentioning that obesity increases the likelihood that a person will develop depression during the course of his or her lifetime? So, instead of bemoaning the fact that some people are fat and that offends you, why don’t you propose a few solutions to that problem? Instead of demeaning people who are overweight and go to the gym, why aren’t you congratulating or helping them? Indeed, isn’t the purpose of going to a gym to get healthy and to be social? Incorporating increased physical activity in an overweight person’s lifestyle can have immensely positive social, cognitive and biological changes in his or her life. Getting the bare minimum recommended by the U.S.

Department of Health and Human Services (150 minutes per week of moderately intense activities) can decrease a person’s risk of getting most cancers, increase the ability to handle stress, increase the production of endorphins, decrease perceived feelings of fatigue, increase personal self-confidence, decrease the incidence of diabetes, increase cognitive function and increase both the quality and duration of life in general. To put it in simple terms, a quote from the New England Journal of Medicine in May 1997 said, “Exercise is the closest thing we’ll ever get to the miracle pill that everyone is seeking.” Getting exercise and attempting to establish a healthy lifestyle should be a goal for all UNM students, faculty and administrators. So, instead of insulting those people who actually want to go to the gym to lose weight, wouldn’t it be more prudent to encourage gym participation? Heck, you might even find that encouraging more people to go to the gym might make it easier on your eyes — as more people will fit your version of ”sexy.”

down the bag of Sonic,” and “no more muffin tops” were nothing more than cruel. It has come to my attention that there are far too many moronic and inconsiderate people. It is time for people to “put down the bag” of idiocy and selfishness and start being more considerate of other people’s feelings. To vent that you have a problem with fat people in the Daily Lobo is simply ridiculous. When did the Daily Lobo become the bulletin page of MySpace? With the power of freedom of speech, there also comes huge responsibility, and one concept that many people have not matured to understand yet is respect. It is wonderful to see that someone is exercising his right, but to just vent your feelings toward fat people without any reason behind it is a perfect example of abusing this right. The problem isn’t that he wrote a whole article discussing his issue with fat people, it’s that he, like many others I know, is disrespectful enough to publish it for everyone to read.

We are all human and we all have feelings. If he is going to publish something for everyone on campus to read, he needs to make it informative, helpful or at the very least, brighten up the day for those who read it. The purpose should not be to ostracize a specific group of people and make them feel like lesser beings. As a college student, we all have enough problems and stress. The last thing we would like to read is an article on how someone doesn’t like fat people. Victor Murthy: Please be respectful and do your best to make someone’s day better. Do not waste our time with something that is hurtful. And to all those skinny, ignorant people out there who agreed with Victor Murthy’s article: “Beauty only gets attention, personality captures the heart.” Just so you know, this is coming from a 115-pound girl.

thinking? Real ministers and all good Christians hate abortions. And what’s with the church letting all these other important values disintegrate? I wouldn’t be surprised if Yates believes sodomites have a right to live, even marry. Everyone knows if you’re an adulterer or an ungrateful youth, you should be stoned and for God’s sake, don’t eat shellfish. It’s almost as if the people have turned their backs on God and the Bible. I would also like to applaud the Christian bravery of Victor Murthy, who, if you

remember, brought another filthy, deadly sin to our attention — gluttony. Hedonistic overeating is still rampant in our society. I’ve seen it in the churches. Read your Bible. Read, read and read again. We need to get back to our Middle Eastern roots. Good Christians of Albuquerque, for God’s, and humanity’s sake, you must always interpret the Bible literally.

said the $500,000 was asked for as reparations for damages caused to Gerald’s reputation. “In that letter, we said that for respect for the process and the football team, J.B. was choosing to remain silent despite many media inquiries,” Haffner said. “But rather than play this thing out in the media, what we wanted to do was seek to resolve this among ourselves. What we said further was that in the event that it became necessary to J.B. to protect his reputation and his future prospects for employment that he would go public.” Haffner said Gerald was concerned that his speaking out about the altercation would adversely affect his job prospects. As Gerald told the Daily Lobo on Saturday, his dissatisfaction with the findings of the investigation forced his hand, and, as a result, he intends to file a lawsuit against Locksley as well as the University. Haffner said that suit would be filed “sooner rather than later,” but

he declined to say exactly when or what would be contained in the suit. “I believe what the University is doing is a rather weak attempt to shift the focus away from what the real issues are — which is the battery of J.B.,” Haffner said. “Specifically, with respect to the extortion they are clearly misconstruing what was unambiguously stated in our demand letter.” Haffner said the University is in the wrong and Gerald’s letter should not be seen as a demand for hush money. “Locksley has admitted the battery,” Haffner said. “The school has admitted the destruction of evidence in this investigation. In my mind, that’s the only thing that matters here. That J.B. has made a demand — of $500,000 — isn’t out of the ordinary. It’s quite common place. For them to misconstrue that as an extortion demand is reprehensible.” Haffner also tried to get in touch with UNM employees following the

take exceptional college graduates — people who would usually go into the work force or graduate school — and have them in the program for two years,” Mazor said. “Students in low-income communities could then have the same benefits as students in high-income communities.” Mazor said only one out of 10 students from low-income areas go to college, compared to nine out of 10 from high-income areas. “That’s where the injustice and inequalities begin,” Mazor said. “It starts at an early age — in preschool and kindergarten. Right away they’re being put behind their peers.” Mazor said students accepted into the program rank their preferences for the grade they want to teach — elementary through high school — and location in the United States. Once accepted, students go through six weeks of intensive training, which prepares them for two years of teaching in the classroom. Lucia Cook, UNM Teach for America representative, said 60 students from UNM applied to the program last year and seven were accepted. Graduates are usually paid between $35,000 and $45,000 per year, Mazor said, although it depends on the school district they are working in. Students also get a stipend when they finish the program. “You get a $10,000 education stipend to use for graduate school, study abroad, pay off student loans from your undergraduate degree — anything that has to do with education,” she said. Senior Mark Probasco said he applied to the program because he wanted to change the cycle of education in the U.S. He said the best teachers usually end up teaching in high-income areas because the pay is better. “I think education in this country is an incredibly important issue,” Probasco said. “We’re a democratic society and we have public education, but the funds provided for each

school is based on property taxes. What ends up happening is people living in relatively affluent areas have better education opportunities than those in rural or low income areas.” Probasco said he wants to give kids in low-income communities the same opportunities he had when growing up. “Teachers were always a really big part of my life by inspiring me and motivating me to go through school and succeed,” he said. “So I guess it’s more of a passion for making sure that people receive good education.” Probasco said he wants to teach in New Orleans or Washington, D.C. He’ll find out if Teach for America accepted him in the next few months. Cook said UNM’s diverse student body prepares applicants for future teaching challenges. “We have so much diversity at this school and that’s what we need in low-income schools, too — teachers that are diverse,” Cook said. Cook said many businesses, graduate schools and professional schools are more likely to hire Teach for America alumni. “Teach for America is a way to make a difference right out of college,” she said. “You’re in the workforce. You’re making a huge difference in the lives of your students. You’re also learning a lot. I’ve heard that teaching in a low-income school is probably one of the most difficult things you could ever do.” Mazor said students who want to make a difference in the lives of kids and still get the work experience they need for future jobs are perfect Teach for America candidates. She said every child deserves a quality education. “Most sixth graders are reading the Diary of Anne Frank and doing pre-algebra, she said. “Kids in low income communities are doing times tables and reading Dr. Seuss books. We need to change that.”

altercation, according to documents provided by the office of the Custodian of Public Records. In a letter written by Ira Bolnick on behalf of University Counsel, he alleged that Haffner displayed “professional misconduct” and improperly communicated with UNM employees during the week of Oct. 19. The letter did not give the names of the two employees Haffner talked to. In securing those interviews, the University said Haffner told the individuals that he had “gone through the proper channels and that he was conducting an ‘official investigation.’” The letter, addressing Haffner, stated: “On behalf of the University, you are directed to cease and desist from contact with any UNM managerial employee without prior notice to and express consent of UNM’s Office of University Counsel.” Haffner brushed aside those allegations of professional misconduct. “At this point, I don’t think it’s material,” he said. “So I’m going to choose not to comment on that.”

Plague acting

by Chris Quintana Daily Lobo

“One Flea Spare” preys on the public’s latest favorite obsession: infection. Set in a house quarantined from the rest of Europe during the Black Plague, the play deals with issues such as class, distortion and repressed sexuality, said Director Ryan Jason Cook. “I love producing and directing shows that have a lot going on underneath or below the surface of the actual text,” Cook said. “This show in particular has so much going on layer-wise than what you see and hear, and that’s what appeals to me.” The play opens Friday and runs through Nov. 22 at The Filling Station. Tickets for opening night are already sold out,

Cook said. The play is Cook’s third community theatre production. Community theatre can be challenging because those who produce the plays have day jobs competing for their attention. “In Albuquerque, there is a lot of community theatre that you go to and you’re like, ‘Man that wasn’t worth it, it was rough,’” Cook said. “Community theatre across the world is that way. I am trying to change people’s thoughts on that. If you come to see my show, I promise it’ll be worth your money.” “One Flea Spare” focuses on an upper middle class couple quarantined in their house because of the plague. Their solitude is interrupted by a young sailor and 12-yearold girl looking for shelter. A sentry, whose duty it is to keep everyone in

the house for 28 days, completes the character list. Because the play was first produced 15 years ago, Cook said he asked his actors to reinvent the production to make it fresh and original. “I’ve talked to the actors about it like this: Always try to go for the abnormal choice,” he said. “Some of the lines, instead of reading them like normal beings … we twist and distort all those lines so it gives a little bit of a different twist, so it leaves a kind WWW.DAILYLOBO.COM

of a surprise for each character. As an audience, you’re trying to get to know these characters, and they do a little something different here and there that throws you off the track. It hopefully keeps you in the course of the play trying to figure these characters out.” Actor Shangreaux Lagrave, who plays the sentry, Kabe, said it was a long process to create an original character. “You just have to go and develop some back story for the character based on the content of the piece,” he said. “There’s a lot of work involved with it, quite frankly. You’re thinking about this all the time. We take those experiences from our work life, our personal life, people we’ve known. ” Actress Barbara Geary, who plays Darcy Snelgrave, said while her

character is motivated by interactions with other characters, the setting also motivates her distress. “For one thing, the world is starting to turn upside down with the plague and all that circumstance,” she said. “Even though they have been locked in their house, it’s still kind of a refuge, because it is their house. But then these strangers come in and everything just turns upside down.” Cook designed the set with little outside help in construction. He said it took about 40 hours to construct, and it’s crucial to the play’s message. “The set is very particular,” Cook said. “My concept of the show in general is distorted secrets, so there are partially broken away walls so people can see through. Then there’s a hint of distortion, so nothing’s perfect.”

Explaining the anatomy of an orgasm ÂÂÂÂÂby Hunter Riley Daily Lobo

I think we should talk about sex. Instead of sweeping it under the rug and frowning upon its discussion, sex should be about communication, education and safety. Making a moral judgment about sex is up to the individual. My desired field of study is sexology, so this column will be a learning experience for myself as well as readers. Everything in this column is based on information from sex education classes in high school, a Psychology of Human Sexuality course at UNM, online research and the best teacher of all: experience. As we dive into this topic, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s start with what will hopefully be the end of that most wily subject â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the orgasm. Orgasm is not the same across the gender board. From a womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perspective, there are subtle things you can do to help us come. Foreplay is essential. Stimulating the erogenous zones â&#x20AC;&#x201D; such as the breasts, nipples, neck and lips â&#x20AC;&#x201D; help the brain release dopamine and help us get into the mood. Also, good kissing can get you a long way. Take your time with foreplay because it will be to your benefit in the end. An interesting piece of anatomical information I discovered while in my

psychology of human sexuality class was that the outer third of the vagina (the opening especially) has nearly 90 percent of the vaginal nerve endings, which means it is more sensitive than the inner walls. As my Psychology of Human Sexuality professor Jennifer Jones said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The clitoris is a fickle little beast.â&#x20AC;? I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an accurate way to sum it up. There is no â&#x20AC;&#x153;right wayâ&#x20AC;? to stimulate the clitoris, but I will say from experience that a woman-on-top position allows for good stimulation of the labia and clitoris, especially if your partner is in a sitting position. The female orgasm can be an erratic event. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve lost count of how many times Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve â&#x20AC;&#x153;faked itâ&#x20AC;? (sorry guys). Looking back on it, there was even a time or two when I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know I had come, I just knew that sex felt extra good that time, but that topic is for another day. So, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important for women to learn what an orgasm is and what it feels like. According to Paula Hall, a contributor to the BBC and an accredited sexual and relationship psychotherapist, 75 percent of women donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have an orgasm during intercourse, and 25 percent of women never have an orgasm in their lifetime. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sad statistic from where Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sitting, so speak up and ask questions. Another common misconception is that men should be the ones to make the orgasm happen. While this is partially true, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also up to the woman to make sure she feels relaxed, emotionally comfortable and

Palinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book tour follows unconventional schedule by Hillel Italie

The Associated Press NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Sarah Palinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book tour is a gift for her base. No stops are planned in Seattle, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and other major cities and book-buying communities that are standard for authors on the road, but where the voters tend to be Democrats. Beyond a Nov. 16 television interview with Oprah Winfrey, nothing is scheduled for Chicago. New York will feature media appearances only. Instead, the itinerary for Palin, whose Going Rogue comes out Nov. 17, includes Noblesville, Ind.; Washington, Pa.; and Rochester, N.Y. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She wants to be unconventional. She is unconventional,â&#x20AC;? HarperCollins spokeswoman Tina Andreadis said Wednesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She feels like this is where her fans are and Harper feels this is where sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll sell the most books.â&#x20AC;? Going Rogue has an announced first printing of 1.5 million copies and has been at or near the top of Amazon.comâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best-seller list for weeks. On Wednesday, ABC News announced that Barbara Walters would interview Palin, to air in five parts over three ABC News broadcasts â&#x20AC;&#x201D; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Good Morning America,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Nightlineâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;20/20,â&#x20AC;? starting the morning of publication day. On her Facebook site, Palin says sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hoping to schedule interviews with others, including Rush Limbaugh and four Fox News Channel personalities: Bill Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reilly, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck and Greta Van Susteren. All but Van Susteren have

their own radio programs. The tour starts Nov. 18 at a Barnes & Noble in Grand Rapids, Mich., where Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate, and running mate Sen. John McCain made a campaign appearance last fall. Choosing Michigan as the first state fits the bookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s title, which refers to reports from last year that the then-Alaska governor was defying McCainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s staff and instead had gone â&#x20AC;&#x153;rogue.â&#x20AC;? Palin openly expressed her unhappiness with the campaignâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to pull out of Michigan and effectively concede the state to Democrat Barack Obama. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a mutual decision between Harper and Palin,â&#x20AC;? Andreadis said of choosing Grand Rapids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And Barnes & Noble has a great store there.â&#x20AC;? Other parts of the tour will mirror the 2008 race. On Dec. 7, Palin is booked for the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minn., not far from last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Republican National Convention, where Palinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s speech â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in which she likened herself to a pit bull â&#x20AC;&#x201D; made her a national sensation. The tour will last about three weeks, with a break for Thanksgiving, and will end around Dec. 10, after which the increase in holiday shoppers makes it difficult for stores to hold events, Andreadis said. Palin will travel by bus for much of the time, likely accompanied by family and by aide Meg Stapleton. The full schedule has not been completed, but confirmed locations â&#x20AC;&#x201D; many of which Palin campaigned at last year â&#x20AC;&#x201D; include Cincinnati; Columbus, Ohio; Roanoke, Va.; the Army post in Fort Bragg, N.C.; Orlando, Fla.; and Albuquerque, N.M.

open to sensation. The more comfortable a woman is with herself and her sexuality, the more rewarding sex will be. There is a spot in women that, when stimulated correctly, will produce female ejaculation, similar to male ejaculation, and it can feel great for women. The exact location of the spot is different in every woman, so the best way to find it is to ask your partner what feels good while youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re exploring. This edition of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Doing It in the Duke Cityâ&#x20AC;? is supposed to help males and females. Partners can learn a lot they might not know simply by asking, but many are too shy to ask personal questions about human anatomy. And a note to all the ladies out there trying to have an orgasm but not making it there: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Practice makes perfect.â&#x20AC;? My advice is to go online or to a sex store in town and buy some fun toys. It may be intimidating at first, so do what I did: drag your roommates with you. By the time you leave theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be thanking you. In my next column, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll talk about the male orgasm and male masturbation. Doing it in the Duke City is written by a group of Daily Lobo columnists. Names of individuals mentioned in this column are changed to protect their privacy.

Slew of celebrities fall victim to theft by Thomas Watkins The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; For a group of Hollywood-obsessed teens, entertainment news on the Internet offered more than a glimpse into the lives of stars. It helped them break into celebritiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; homes. The teens tracked the movements of stars such as Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton and broke into their houses, making off with millions of dollars in stolen possessions in a spree that lasted almost a year. With a few clicks on the Internet, police say, the suspects developed a wish list of designer clothes and jewelry, then raided the homes while celebrities were away. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They thought it was fun, kind of an adrenaline rush,â&#x20AC;? Los Angeles police officer Brett Goodkin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They would go in and steal the celebrityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clothes and possessions, things they could never afford on their own.â&#x20AC;? Police last week arrested four young women and two men on suspicion of burglarizing 10 homes in the Hollywood Hills. In addition to Lohan and Hilton, other victims included â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Hillsâ&#x20AC;? star Audrina Patridge, Orlando Bloom, Megan Fox, Brian Austin Green, Ashley Tisdale

and Rachel Bilson. Police said the teens scoured celebrity blogs and Web sites, looking for valuables, and then used the Internet to find where the stars lived. After watching a home, they would break into poorly protected properties through doors, windows and, in one case, a doggy door. The burglaries lasted from October 2008 until September. Items stolen â&#x20AC;&#x153;run the gamut of high-end designer clothing,â&#x20AC;? Goodkin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You could pick a designer, and they would be among what was taken.â&#x20AC;? Police displayed an evidence photograph Wednesday depicting approximately $2 million in stolen jewelry that was recovered and returned to Hilton. The thieves snatched dozens of items of flashy, gem-encrusted jewelry, then made off with it in the socialiteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Luis Vuitton bag. The suspects include 18-yearolds Rachel Lee, Courtney Ames and Alexis Neiers, and Diana Tamayo, 19. Several of the group graduated two years ago from the â&#x20AC;&#x153;continuation campusâ&#x20AC;? at Indian Hills High School in suburban Agoura Hills, said Donald Zimring, superintendent of the Las Virgenes Unified School District.

Such campuses are for students struggling to attain good grades in regular schools, but Zimring could not comment on their academic records. Additionally, 18-year-old Nicholas Prugo was arrested last month in the same case on suspicion of breaking into the homes of Lohan and Patridge. A sixth suspect, 27-year-old Ray Lopez Jr., was also arrested. Police also sought Jonathan Ajar, also 27, for a variety of offenses, including receiving stolen property and possession of a firearm. Prosecutors have filed felony residential burglary charges against Neiers, Ames, Tamayo and Lopez Jr. They declined to file charges against Lee, pending further investigation, and additional charges will be filed against Prugo, who had already been charged with burglaries at Lohan and Patridgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homes. Police recovered three guns and a large amount of drugs as they served search warrants in the case. They did not specify where they searched. The robberies were driven by â&#x20AC;&#x153;celebrity infatuation and greed,â&#x20AC;? Goodkin said. Neiers had been the subject of a reality-TV pilot episode that the Los Angeles Times said was about aspiring actresses.

New Mexico Daily Lobo

Flea from page 6 Geary said the play ultimately appeals to the most basic condition of the plague: fear. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interesting to go into the realm where (the plague) is very present in those peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives,â&#x20AC;? Geary said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know a fair amount about the period. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see the descriptions of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on in the streets. The stuff going on the streets is pretty unbelievable, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really true. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what really happened. In a way, they are lucky to be inside the house.â&#x20AC;? In addition to the unease caused by the playâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s distorted nature, its sexual tension might offend some people, Cook said. However, he said the artistsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; job should stretch beyond entertaining an audience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even people who can hold their own will squirm just because of the positions that people are placed in,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I enjoy doing plays like this just because it pushes the envelope. I like doing the plays that cause you to think. With a play like this, my hope is that people will talk about it days and weeks after â&#x20AC;Ś By me causing you to feel that, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done my job. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not just here to entertain but to educate.â&#x20AC;? Lagrave said acting as the sentry, who is also a pedophile, was a conflicting experience for him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You bring some life experience to the role you play, but in the end, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing someone else â&#x20AC;&#x201D; you are trying to be somebody else,â&#x20AC;?

General Admission: $16 Student Discount: $12 www.FillingStationABQ.com Lagrave said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you are a little bit embarrassed about something a character is doing, you are probably bringing a little bit too much of yourself to the piece, instead of taking on the role of the character.â&#x20AC;? Audience members who bring an orange will get $2 off the ticket price, and those who dress like a sailor will get $5 off, Cook said. These elements relate to the play, and offering a discount should get the audience more involved with the show, Cook said. Cook said he is well aware of the fear of swine flu infection in modern society, but seeing this play should alleviate some of that concern. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seeing something like this, as an audience member, you can realize as humans we can defeat anything,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This plague took out half of London, but look at London now. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s booming and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still alive.
