UNM Press to cut back by Andrew Beale Daily Lobo
Amie Zimmer / Daily Lobo Sophomore Tyler Mound, left, senior Simon Walker, center, and freshman Adeline Murthy read an ornament on the Giving Tree in the SUB atrium. Each ornament describes a gift requested for a child or family in need. UNM community members can purchase the gifts and drop them off in the ASUNM office by Dec. 14.
Students use Giving Tree to help community by Tricia Remark Daily Lobo
Students in ASUNM Community Experience are helping bring holiday cheer to Albuquerque charities. In the middle of the SUB Atrium, ASUNM CE has put up the Giving Tree — a large holiday tree decorated with requests for presents from children and families, said Hallee Kells, Community Experience events director. The Giving Tree has been in the SUB since Nov. 30 and will be there until Dec. 14 at 5 p.m. The event has been a UNM tradition at least since 2003. “Since it is a tradition, people start to notice the tree more every year,” Kells said. “We don’t know who is picking up the ornaments, but we seem to get them all back from a wide range of people.” Kells said ornaments on the tree list the gender, age, initials of the charity, as well as what items the family or child needs. After UNM community members buy the gifts, they are instructed to bring them to the ASUNM office, Room 1016, by Dec. 14. Kells said CE doesn’t expose the names of people or charities that receive the gifts for privacy reasons. “Some of the charities are battered women’s shelters, so we don’t want to expose anything about them,” she said. Jenny Shroba, the CE executive director, said the UNM community is still supporting the Giving Tree despite the tough economy. She said about 30 ornaments are left from the more than 300 ornaments placed on the tree initially. “Even when times are hard, I think it brings people together,” she said. “Who knows, maybe in our own lifetime there will be a time when we need help. I think if you have the means to do it, you should

“I think it’s very important that we share with others and take care of our neighbors and community members. Simple things like kitchen towels or deodorant — someone shouldn’t go without those.” ~Lucia Cook UNM student help. The Giving Tree definitely reinforces that.” Kells said some common items requested are toiletries, kitchen supplies and toys. Most of the ornaments ask for items under $20. “Children get really specific sometimes. They’ll say, ‘I want a Spiderman action figure,’ or ‘Barbie’ or ‘toy cars,’” she said. “Sometimes the organizations won’t have specific people, but they’ll know of people that are usually at their centers around the holidays. They’ll guesstimate that they may need bedding or something like that.” Kells said CE — which has at least four members — make the ornaments from the wish lists provided by local charities. “I really like to see students doing this because it’s a simple way to contribute to the community,” Kells said. “You don’t know how much of an impact you’re making by just buying one gift.” UNM student Lucia Cook said this is
the second year she’s participated in the Giving Tree event. She picked up three ornaments this year that asked for items such as shaving cream, razors, deodorant and a manicure set. “I think it’s very important that we share with others and take care of our neighbors and community members,” Cook said. “Simple things like kitchen towels or deodorant — someone shouldn’t go without those.” Kells said there are still ways to participate in the Giving Tree if students can’t afford to buy gifts. “I think it would be appropriate to maybe write a card — you could look at the ornament and find someone your age or a child,” she said. “Something as simple as that would be great. Just keeping them in mind somehow or mentioning it to other people is good, too.” Shroba said participants can take as many ornaments as they want, and can get more items than the ornament requests. She said the Giving Tree is a simple way to give back to the community. “I think that you should give to those who don’t have the means to help themselves,” she said. “We’re all very fortunate — we might be struggling through college to make enough for tuition and books, but not being able to have a toy for your child — that’s a little different level. The holiday season brings a time of giving, and the Giving Tree is my favorite event because of that.”

The Provost’s Office will not outsource the UNM Press warehouse operation, but several employees still aren’t confident that their jobs are safe. Joyce Perz, who works in Accounts Receivable at UNM Press, said a memo sent by the Provost’s Office contains language that makes her question the future of UNM Press’s warehouse department. She said the Provost’s Office has called for “substantive changes” in the operation of the warehouse department. “Now, what would the changes be?” she said. “The only thing we could do would be cut people.” The Provost’s Office reviewed four proposals, requested last March, from companies that offered bids on the warehouse contract. If one of the proposals had been accepted, all the jobs at the UNM Press warehouse would have been outsourced and the Albuquerque employees laid off. Provost Wynn Goering sent a memo to the UNM Press staff on Nov. 18, stating that none of the bids were accepted and that the warehouse operation will stay in New Mexico for now. “One element common to all the bids was a charge of approximately $100,000 for ‘excess inventory,’” Goering said in the memo. “Without that penalty each would have resulted in substantial cost savings over our current operations.” The excess inventory charge came from books that UNM Press does not expect to sell immediately. UNM Press Director Luther Wilson said there was nothing in Goering’s memo to indicate that there will be a reduction in the number of staff at the warehouse, or that outsourcing is still a possibility. “I don’t know how they interpret this stuff. They interpreted the fact that going up for bid is a fait accompli,” he said. “That is not the case.” Perz said she interpreted the memo to mean that, if the warehouse could reduce excess inventory, the Provost’s Office would reconsider outsourcing the operation. “There was only one facet of the proposal that pushed the cost of outsourcing significantly over keeping it here,” she said. “So if we were to reduce our inventory, substantial cost savings could be realized (by outsourcing the warehouse operations) … If just cutting the inventory would make these enormous cost differences, why wouldn’t they do it?” Richard Schuetz, associate director for business operations, said he is glad the warehouse was not outsourced, according to a press release from UNM Press. He said the Request for Proposals showed that the warehouse is cost-efficient compared to other bidders. “We’re obviously pleased with the outcome,” Schuetz said in the press release. “We plan to use information from the RFP process to improve our operations, but we were particularly encouraged by how well we compared with the bidders in terms of the quality of our service.” Wilson said the Provost’s Office plans to review the efficiency of the UNM Press warehouse in two years but did not specify changes to be made. “The Provost did say that: ‘We’re going to give you a two-year period to see if you can realize the kind of (changes) that one or two of the bidders indicated in their bid process, on our own,’” he said. “Our associate director is working on that.” Wilson said UNM Press has performed well over the last five months, contrary to general economic trends in publishing. He said the Press is trying to reduce its excess inventory, but that will not affect the future of the Press. Wilson said the Press is working to bring costs down, because the economic climate is not favorable for discretionary spending, such as buying books. “We’re vulnerable to those economic forces in a way that a lot aren’t,” he said.

TSH: Actually, kind of at Thanksgiving where you say what you are thankful for. We do that at Christmas. We also do News Year’s resolutions — what happened in this year, what you are looking forward to in the next year. DL: So what are you thankful for this year?

TSH: I would want a plane ticket down to south Texas. I don’t have that yet. I kind of pay my own way in college, so I have to figure out a way home. DL: What gifts do you think your family will get you? TSH: Nothing. I really don’t ask for anything. They have given me so much in my life I don’t need anything now.

DL: Are you more of a giving type of person? TSH: Absolutely. And it’s not always material things. It’s more about favors and volunteerism. DL: Where do you like help out? TSH: I did soup kitchens one year — wherever I can find people who need help. Also, I used to volunteer at the special education department at my school. We did a Christmas program for the kids, and it was really successful. The smiles on those kids’ faces were amazing. ~ Tim Mousseau

From the web Last week, guest columnist Eric McInteer wrote that Americans need to support the war effort in Afghanistan and resist the isolationist urge to pull out of the area. Readers at DailyLobo.com responded: by ‘Petros Kourtakis’ Posted Friday “You can’t defeat al-Qaida in Afghanistan and expect al-Qaida to just go away. You still see even Iraq has poor security after a mere six years of U.S. military operations. With American-led bombing campaigns killing civilians in both Iraq and Afghanistan, the U.S. has ensured much American hatred among the Arab nations for generations to come. War never was the answer, and Obama is now burdened with the mistakes made by Bush and Rumsfeld.” by ‘Damian’ Posted Friday “Afghanistan is completely unwinnable. We should not sacrifice American lives for the welfare of Afghan people. If we are to win, we must ruthlessly pursue the heart of Islamic totalitarianism. This requires an unequivocal understanding of U.S. individualism over theocracies.” by ‘Slowhike’ Posted Friday “Anyone with understanding will see that Obama has learned, since his time in office, that there are important things at stake militarily, which is why he has no choice but to participate in Afghanistan. Still, there will be the individuals who think that all that is necessary is to stop the war. They don’t believe that our having the strongest military in the world has any positive bearing on the globe at all. This is a naive approach, one devoid of comprehension of humanity and the psychology of human beings.” by ‘Mark’ Posted Monday “The president has still not articulated a realistic goal for our continued presence in Afghanistan. We are still being fed those same vague and amorphous goals (a la Bush, but without the strange cheerleading jargon). We are still supporting a corrupt Karzai regime. I think we need to say ‘no’ until we get some straight answers as to how this will benefit America in the end.” Join the discussion at DailyLobo.com.

Options for dealing with fickle follicles by Peggy Spencer
Daily Lobo columnist Dear Dr. Peg, I’m losing hair on top. I’m too young to be bald. What can I do? Dear Balding Guy, Basically, you have three choices. Accept it, hide it or try to change it. But first let’s look at what is happening and why. Hair grows in follicles. A follicle is kind of like a flowerpot, and each hair has its own pot. A follicle cycles through three phases over and over again. During growth phase, which lasts two to six years, hair grows about a half an inch each month. Next is a two- to threeweek involutional phase. No growth here. Finally, there is a resting phase of three or four months. At the end of the resting phase, the follicle spits out the old hair and begins growing a new one. At any time, about 85 percent of your follicles are in growth phase and most of the rest are in resting phase. We are born with all the hair follicles we’ll ever get. Obviously, the kind of hair they make changes throughout life, from the soft locks of babyhood to the coarse gray mantle of age. The number doesn’t change. The quality may, however. Read on. Hair loss has many causes, from fungal infections to stress to genetics. Students will often go through a phase in which they see more hairs on their pillow, in the shower drain or in their brush. This is usually related to stress and will pass. If it doesn’t, call SHAC for an appointment, because it could be a medical problem. Thyroid problems, anemia, nutritional deficiency, crash dieting and certain medications can all cause hair loss. If the hair loss is in one spot, it could be a fungal infection. Too-tight ponytails and hair-pulling neuroses can also contribute. The more common type of hair loss is the gradual thinning that you are probably experiencing. First the front lines begin to retreat, creating an “M” type pattern on the forehead. Then the top starts to thin. Eventually they meet in the middle, leaving the classic ring
around the cranium that is the joy of the Rogaine CEOs. This kind of hair loss is called male pattern baldness, although it can affect women too, to a lesser degree. Male pattern baldness is so named because it involves testosterone, the primary male hormone. Testosterone converts to another hormone called dihydrotestosterone, or DHT. DHT shrinks hair follicles. As a result, the sprout in the flowerpot, with less and less room to grow, gets smaller and weaker. Eventually, there’s simply no more room for growth and the follicle shuts down. Some guys seem to be extra sensitive to DHT. This may be partly a matter of genetics. Look at your mother’s father. That’s right, on your mother’s side. If grandpa is bald, you’re more likely to be bald, too. But it isn’t an exact science. Dad’s genes could pitch in, too. So here you are with your faltering fleece. What’s to be done? One choice is to accept it. Join the likes of Vin Diesel and Bruce Willis and flaunt it, baby. Some people find the bare pate to be sexy, or at least palatable. As pro baseball player Joe Garagiola said, “I’d rather be bald on top than bald inside.” Your second choice is to try to hide it. Cut the rest of your hair very short, and the bald area won’t be as obvious. Or adopt the tousled look to mask the thinning area. Special shampoos and hair products can help add volume and thickness. You probably want to avoid the comb-over look. Or you can get a toupee. But if you do that, please don’t scrimp, because everyone can spot a bad rug. If you don’t like it and don’t want to hide it, you can try to fix it. Laser treatment might help, but it’s unproven. Then there are also two kinds of medicines for hair loss: a topical solution and a pill. The topical solution is minoxidil, or Rogaine. Minoxidil works by dilating blood vessels. When this happens in the scalp, it’s like watering the flowerpots. Hair starts to grow back in follicles that were drying up. The only problem is that you have to keep rubbing it into your head every day or the follicles will dry up again. Finasteride and dutasteride (Propecia and Avodart) are medicines that block conversion of testosterone to DHT. With less DHT
around, there is less follicle shrinkage. Since these drugs essentially decrease your male hormones, there is a small risk of unpleasant side effects like decreased sex drive and erectile dysfunction. I said a small risk. Most men do fine with this drug. Like with minoxidil, if you stop the drug, the follicles go back into shrink mode. Saw palmetto is an herb whose fruit has been used for hair loss. It is thought to work like finasteride and dutasteride, although scientific studies are sparse to date. Women have a couple more choices for thinning hair, including oral contraceptives and a medicine called spironolactone, which has anti-androgen effects. Lastly, there are surgical options. Brace yourself. Small plugs of hair can be transplanted from a hairy area to a bald area. Like a bad toupee, a bad transplant is worse than baldness, so get an experienced surgeon. Another procedure, called tissue expansion, involves putting tiny balloons under the skin and gradually inflating them, causing the scalp to expand. After a few months of this, the expanded scalp is transplanted to the bald area. Similar flap surgery can be done to rotate a flap of hairy scalp onto the bald area. This leaves a major scar that requires long hairstyles. Finally, there’s scalp reduction, in which a section of bald scalp is simply removed from the top of the head and the remaining scalp is pulled together to fill in, like a face-lift for your head. There are lots of options, as you can see. Whatever you decide, keep in mind the words of Austin O’Malley, an American physician and humorist: “Better a bald head than no head at all.” Good luck.

Letters CIA to blame for the Taliban’s execution of innocent women Editor, When did the distinction between culture and religion become so blurred? A recent political cartoon in the Daily Lobo seems to be
trying to link Islam with the execution of innocent women. The Taliban was created by the CIA in order to combat the Soviets, so let’s blame the CIA and not Islam for that kind of god-awful treatment of our precious women. Before Islam came to Arabia, it was a common practice among the Arabs to bury their baby girls alive.
The gods of wood and clay justified the kind of horrendous behavior that still haunts women today. Islam condemned this practice and the Prophet Muhammad specifically forbade Muslims from murdering innocent baby girls. The Taliban represents Islam as much as the CIA represents the American people.

Controversial films find home at festival by Alisha Catanach Daily Lobo
New Mexico’s film future got a little brighter after last weekend’s first annual Santa Fe Independent Film Festival. About 300 people attended the three-day event to watch provocative and politically controversial films from around the world. Six weeks ago the Santa Fe Independent Film Festival was merely
the pipe dream of two UNM alumni and filmmakers, Jacques Paisner and David Moore, Paisner said. The indie festival is a grassroots alternative to the 10-year-running Santa Fe Film Festival held at the same time. “We want to speak to filmmakers and tell them to never compromise their vision by doing something safer, just to get into some festival,” Paisner said. Paisner and Moore also
presented awards to filmmakers in their festival. Lisa Hill won the Best Short award for her film “Dear John.” Hill said her film was about “the difference one woman, one lottery ticket and $111 million can make.” The filmmaker said she started directing as a child. “When I was a kid I would play Barbies and invent these long stories and tell people what to do with

Porn stars let hair down at CA bar Even the most ardent fans of porn star Julie Meadows are unlikely, it seems safe to say, to have ever seen her like this. But there she is, the star of “Alice in Fetishland” and more than 200 other hardcore sex films, standing on a stage, dressed demurely in jeans, matching vest and white top, her blonde hair piled up under a fetching white watchman’s cap, belting out an enthusiastic but entirely PG-rated version of that old garage-band rock classic “Wild Thing.” “Wild Thing I think I love you — But I want to know for sure,” Meadows

growls, as fellow porn star Nicki Hunter, in a white minidress, leaps on stage to harmonize. A moment later, when Meadows breaks into some impressive air guitar moves, the crowd howls its approval. Don’t get the wrong idea. This isn’t the opening scene for a porn video. It’s simply Porn Star Karaoke Night at Sardo’s Grill and Lounge, a friendly little hole-in-the-wall place that six nights out of the week is just another karaoke pub. The club, in fact, offers Family Friday karaoke when parents can bring their children. On Mondays, people play Rock Band 2 while they sing. On Wednesdays there are trivia games. But on Tuesday nights, when just about everybody else is getting ready for bed in this quiet suburb on the edge of Los Angeles, Sardo’s becomes the place to be for anyone who has ever been, or who wants to be, connected with the porn business. Between beery versions of popular songs, this is where the deals that lead to films like “Video Voyeur”

their Barbies,” Hill said. “Filmmaking is like playing Barbies. It’s just a lot harder.” Hill said she wants to create another independent film in the next year. She said it would be about 30 minutes long and would retell the story of Calamity Jane, the wild woman of the West. Norman Patrick Brown, a critically acclaimed Navajo filmmaker, screened his short film “Rez Hope,” which was funded by the New Mexico Department of Health and was part of PBS’s “Independent Lens” series. Brown said he uses his camera to heal communities and to wake up young people to realize the value of their cultural background. He said his films are unique in that they are in the Navajo language with English subtitles. “Basically I just integrate my ancient Navajo storytelling process with the Hollywood formula, and I use my language,” he said. Brown played the teaser for his newest feature-length film, “Rainbow Boy,” which will come out next spring, at the awards ceremony on Saturday. He said the film is a message to the world that Mother Earth is going to rebel and we have to get our act together. Paisner said Gary Farmer accepted the best Body of Work Award for an Actor.

often get made. “Anytime you come to L.A. you’ve got to spend Tuesday night at Sardo’s. That’s where you meet the directors and the producers,” says Tony Batman, who travels the country putting on Miss Nude contests, strip shows and exotic showcases for would-be stars. Porn Star Tuesdays began accidentally in 2003 when a handful of entertainers, after a long day on the set, dropped by to unwind. They had so much fun they came back the next week and brought their friends. Six years later, they are still coming back, and attracting a following of fans that usually has the bar filled to capacity. But what about the all important question? Can porn stars really sing? In most cases it becomes clear within just a few off-key notes that these people are lucky they have sex films to fall back on. But every now and then someone who really can sing gets up in front of the microphone. Nicki Hunter, for example, has a surprisingly sweet soprano voice.

the film industry who appeared in the 1989 comedy “Powwow Highway” and co-starred with Johnny Depp in “Dead Man.” Farmer said finding truth in life comes from multiple voices telling their stories, and it’s good for filmmakers to have another place to submit their films and have their voices heard. “Stuff that doesn’t get accepted there (Santa Fe Film Festival) still has an audience, and I think there is a place for both,” Farmer said. Farmer directed a short film called “Powerball,” which was screened at the festival on Saturday and appeared in over 10 film festivals around the country. The Santa Fe Independent Film Festival will show movies year round at the Santa Fe Complex on 632 Agua Fria St., which is the organization’s headquarters. Paisner said UNM students get a discount on the entry fee if they want to have their films screened at the SF Complex. The group will also host a screenplay competition this spring, he said.
