Graduation rate at UNM lower than peer schools

FRACTAL FANATIC

Poor completion statistics attributed to nontraditional student body by Tricia Remark Daily Lobo

Vanessa Sanchez / Daily Lobo Jonathan Wolfe holds fractals drawn by school children. Check out page 18 for a profile of the man who dedicated his life to the fractal phenomenon.

Only about 42 percent of UNM students graduate within six years. But there may be several underlying reasons for the less-than-impressive graduation rates, said Wynn Goering, vice provost of Academic Affairs. “One of the things we’ve learned about our students is that they have far more off-campus obligations than students in similar places,” Goering said. UNM students have far different lives compared to students at peer institutions, including the universities of Arizona and Colorado at Boulder, Goering said. According to fall 2009 surveys conducted by UNM, 43 percent of incoming freshmen care for a dependent, compared with only 19 percent of students at other schools. And 22 percent of UNM students work more than 20 hours a week at an off-campus job, compared with just 5 percent of students at comparable schools.

Pot grower shortage forces patients to seek alternatives by Ruben Hamming-Green Daily Lobo

New Mexico’s medicinal marijuana program is running dry. The state has only 11 growers to satisfy the demand of the 2,000 patients prescribed cannabis for chronic illness. This position leaves many patients rationing medication or turning to the illegal market, while the state wants to ensure that its program for growing cannabis remains

legal, said Len Goodman, executive director of NewMexicann, a nonprofit organization that grows medicinal marijuana. Goodman said his company distributes to about 750 patients but said he cannot provide enough for all of them. “There are not enough licensed producers to handle the patients, and it’s been this way since the program was instituted,” he said. “Patients can’t get sufficient medicine for their needs.” Deborah Busemeyer, a

spokeswoman for the Department of Health, said the state hadn’t anticipated the high demand. “We did recognize that the supply was not going to be enough for the patients in our program,” she said. After medical marijuana was legalized in New Mexico in 2007, it took the state two years to authorize marijuana growers. In March 2009, the first nonprofit organization was approved to grow marijuana. In November, four more were authorized, with each organization being allowed to grow 95 plants.

Busemeyer said legal tensions are partially responsible for the slow authorization of nonprofit marijuana growers. “Because this program is legal under state law and illegal under federal law, it takes more consideration in putting it together and making sure it’s going to work for New Mexico,” Busemeyer said. “We have to go through the process really slowly and thoughtfully, because if we don’t develop a program that is sustainable, that gives patients access to the medicine they need without jeopardizing

Construction jams campus traffic by Chelsea Erven Daily Lobo

Back-to-school traffic and parking around UNM’s main campus can be unpredictable, but this August there will be an added complication. Road construction in the Yale Boulevard and Las Lomas Road area for the new Yale parking structure will restrict traffic through August 31. The construction will affect Northbound Yale Boulevard between Lomas Boulevard and Las Lomas Road, as well as both lanes of Las Lomas Road between Yale Boulevard and Stan ford Drive. Parking and Transportation Services recommends that drivers find alternate routes for getting around campus. Shuttle services around campus will also

be re-routed, so students should expect delays, said PATS spokesman Brian Kilburn. “There will be access to the affected areas, but there will be no access for through traffic,” he said. Kilburn said PATS is trying to minimize the disruption the project will cause and will have updated infor mation available on campus or online about the impacted areas and how long construction will be going on. He said infor mation on re-routed shuttles will also be available at shuttle stops around campus. Dong Glenn, PATS operation manager, said construction will mostly consist of connecting the water lines from main campus to the new parking structure and only students attempting to

enter campus southbound will experience problems. “There will be an issue trying to use Yale to exit Las Lomas onto Lomas, but students wanting to exit campus onto Lomas can use Stanford or University instead,” Glenn said. UNM junior Lyndsey Holland said she has already ridden on shuttles that were re-routed. “I was on the Q-lot bus the other day, and it goes all the way out and around now before taking me to my car,” she said. “It took longer than usual, and I’m thinking of changing to the south lot shuttles just so I don’t have to deal with it.” Holland said the construction

safety of the patients, producers and public, we could jeopardize our entire program.” On July 9, the state authorized six more medical cannabis producers to help meet the growing need. But Goodman said it will take anywhere from three to five months for the newly licensed providers to begin selling their product, and it still will not be enough to accommodate the 100 to 200 patients Busemeyer said are approved every month.

Impact of stimulus bill significant at UNM Editor, I was really interested in the political cartoon in the Daily Lobo the week of July 19. It implies that the stimulus will be the death of the Democrats. I’m not sure who draws these cartoons, but if you look around UNM you will see significant benefit from the stimulus. In biology, we have a graduate student evaluator/program assistant, a new full-time adviser and many

newly remodeled rooms for student research and conferences, and that’s just from two student research programs. We have 20 new computers and other large equipment for laboratories — and that is only a small, small part of stimulus funding to UNM. I’m sure the Office of the Vice President for Research knows the number of people who have jobs here because of the stimulus, and it wouldn’t surprise me if this numbered in the 100s. So, before anyone jokes that the stimulus hasn’t done anything for them, think about the future doctors, teachers and other pro-

fessionals who will be trained on this equipment and the students who will have greater opportunities and graduate sooner because of advising help and jobs. The stimulus will be the end of the Democrats only if the faculty, staff and the University remain quiet about what we have received and the enormous benefits of what we have done with this funding. At UNM, the stimulus is an investment in the future — your future. Maggie Werner-Washburne UNM Faculty

Webcasts aim to promote transparency by Chelsea Erven Daily Lobo

New Mexico legislators are at the forefront during the regular legislative session each winter, but what is happening in the roundhouse between sessions? The legislative council voted to start webcasting legislative interim committee meetings July 1. Broadcasts of legislative regular sessions began in 2009 in Santa Fe. Sarah Welsh, executive director of New Mexico Foundation for Open Government, said the webcasts are a big step forward for public access to state government. “It’s an opportunity to track issues that you care about, and it’s a chance to listen to your representatives and senators at work,� she said. “Many people are too busy to pay attention to what goes on in the interim or can’t afford to attend the meetings, which can last for several days. But the interim committees do a lot of the heavy lifting in advance of legislative sessions, drafting major legislation and evaluating state programs. A lot of important things get done.� Initially, Welsh said, many lawmakers thought it would be too difficult and expensive to broadcast

interim meetings because take place at venues across the state. Bernalillo County representative Janice Arnold-Jones wrote a letter to all committee chairs urging them to immediately begin broadcasting interim meetings. Eventually, the motion succeeded, but it wasn’t easy to pass. “It was a simple motion, but it took 27 minutes to get it passed,� Arnold-Jones said. “The idea is not popular among lawmakers, and the unpopularity of it exists across party lines. Several senators walked out before the vote finally took place.� As a cost-saving measure, this year’s meetings are held in Santa Fe, so the meeting rooms are already wired and ready to begin broadcasting the webcasts. The live streaming audio feed of interim legislative committees is now available online, but is not archived, Welsh said. The lack of archives prompted reporters from the New Mexico Independent to liveblog each meeting during the last legislative and special sessions, the transcripts of which are available on their website NMIndependent.com Arnold-Jones said convincing lawmakers to allow for the archiving of meetings will be a task because they feel like it would restrict what they can say, even though archived

statements cannot be used in campaigns. “Sometimes uncomfortable topics come up, but there are uncomfortable things that need to be said,� she said. “There has even been legislation we have passed that I have wanted to go back and look at to see what our intent was in passing it. That’s where the archiving would come in handy.� Student Caitlen Hudak said she would watch webcasts if the meetings contained discussion about important upcoming legislation. She said she agrees the meetings should be archived. “I’d like to be able to rewind it and hear things again or listen more closely to things,� Hudak said. “It’s an inch in the right direction.� Arnold-Jones said lawmakers still need to create points of access for the community. “It’s not perfect, but it’s better than what we had,� she said.

Concealed weapons invited out for drinks by Tricia Remark Daily Lobo

A law that went into effect July 1 allows some New Mexicans to carry concealed weapons into restaurants that serve beer and wine. The state has always allowed people with concealed weapons licenses to bring weapons into restaurants that don’t serve alcohol, said George Munoz, the senator who introduced the bill, but there are still no weapons allowed in restaurants with full liquor licenses. Munoz said the law shouldn’t affect any restaurants because one term of the concealed weapons license states that it’s illegal to drink when carrying a gun. “When you have a conceal and carry license, you’re not allowed to consume alcohol. Period,” he said. “I think that the basic problem is that a weapon is most vulnerable when left in a vehicle in a parking lot.” Carol Wight, chief executive of the New Mexico Restaurant Association, said she is worried that bringing guns into restaurants that serve alcohol could be a deadly mix. She said many

people don’t know the difference between restaurants that only serve beer and wine and those that have a full liquor license. “There is a big mix-up right now,” she said. It doesn’t help that a comprehensive list of restaurants that have beer and wine licenses doesn’t exist, said Teala Kail, New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department spokeswoman. However, restaurant owners can stop people from bringing in weapons if they put up a sign at the entrance, Wight said. Wight said restaurant owners already have many responsibilities when serving alcohol, and people who bring guns into the restaurant will be another headache. “I don’t think there is going to be a big problem, but I hate to keep putting these situations out there for my members,” she said. “Already they’re responsible for everybody’s drinking and what everybody has before they get to their restaurants. Now they’ve got to be responsible if (customers) have guns.” Wight said about half of restaurant owners with beer and wine licenses will probably put up signs prohibiting guns.

The problem with that, Munoz said, is that many guns are stolen when they’re left in cars because people can’t bring them into restaurants. He said it’s more dangerous when they’re stolen by those not licensed to carry them. “I think the statistics are telling us that when you leave your gun in your vehicle, that’s where it’s stolen the most,” he said. Dave Sandoval, owner of El Patio De Albuquerque restaurant on Harvard Drive, said he will allow people to bring concealed weapons into his restaurant, but they should be responsible and not drink. “I don’t want to offend any customers,” he said. “If you’ve got a license to carry and it’s concealed, fine. But I think they should make it mandatory to let the people at the restaurant know when they walk in with a gun, so they don’t get served alcohol.” Angela Walters, Il Vicino manager on Central Avenue and Tulane Drive, said she posted a sign asking people not to bring in concealed weapons long before the law went into effect. “We do have the ‘no firearms allowed on premises’ sign, and I assume it’s going to stay up,” she said.

Meandering across Mexico Editor’s Note: The following are excerpts from assistant culture editor Andrew Beale’s blog about his self-funded travels in Mexico. The opinions expressed are solely those of the author. June 20 Revolutionary idea: Refuse all help from the government. This is the policy of Zapatista groups throughout Mexico. They refused to accept materials from the government to build concrete floors and tin roofs for their houses. Many of them sleep on dirt floors and have no running water. The Zapatista uprising Jan. 1, 1994, marked the true beginning of the Zapatista revolution. Armed rebels attacked and took over government installations throughout the southern Mexican state of Chiapas. Many of the rebels were armed with nothing more than sticks. They rode to war on public busses. June 22 An interview conducted at Albergue Jesús el Buen Pastor de Pobre y el Migrante, Tapachula, Chiapas: Subject is a 27-year-old man who wishes to remain anonymous, hereafter referred to as “Sujeto.” Sujeto was born in El Salvador and brought to the United States when he was three months old. He lived in Los Angeles over the course of his life. Seven years ago, he was arrested on a firearms charge. Sujeto said it all happened when a store he was

working at was robbed, and during his shift his friend was shot. Sujeto ran to his friend’s car where he retrieved a pistol and returned fire. He was sentenced to seven years in prison on an attempted murder charge. When released from prison, Sujeto was deported to El Salvador, a country where he had no family and had not been to since he was three months old. Immediately upon leaving the airport, gang members accosted Sujeto to cut open his shirt, so they could look for gang tattoos, but Sujeto of course had none. Had they found gang tattoos, he said they would have killed him. July 5 While I was in Caracol Oventek, a Zapatista community where I studied Spanish for a week, I heard two parables about the differences between capitalist society and the way of life of the Tzotzil, the indigenous community of the region. Here’s one: A man is winding a clock outside of his house. Another man sees him and laughs at this silly, monotonous task. Returning to his house, this man decides that he also wants a clock for his wall. Instead of buying a clock from the store, this man puts an artichoke on his wall. He keeps time by pulling a leaf off the artichoke whenever he feels like it and keeping track of how many leaves are gone. In this manner, he always knows the exact hour. As my compañero de clase said by way of

interpretation: “Eat when you’re hungry. Sleep when you’re tired. Do stuff when it needs to be done.” July 6 I want to see the world from inside Club Med. I want to fly to Paris and refuse to go more than a mile away from the Eiffel tower. I want to go on a pub crawl in Athens that’s only open to Americans. I want a cultural experience in Central America without the dirty parts or any guilt for not wanting these people in my country. I want to see the native people in their silly clothing from a tour bus window. I want to drink Starbucks in Chiapas, Mexico. I want to eat at a Hard Rock Cafe in Africa. I want to stay at a Hilton hotel on every continent. I want to give spare change to beggars in China and feel really good about myself for it. I want to pay a series of tour guides $150 an hour and feel slightly ripped off. I want to do a weeklong meditation retreat in Thailand and tell all my friends how it changed my life. I want to repeat the same sentence in English five times to an Egyptian street vendor, in the hopes he’ll understand me if I just talk louder and slower. And when I come home, I want to tell all the pretty rich girls how I just went on the craziest adventure ever. See all of Beale’s travel blog entries online at DailyLobo.com

Goering said these kinds of factors shouldn’t be ignored when comparing UNM’s graduation rate to other schools. “One of the things our data tell us about our UNM students is that a lot of them come with lives fully formed that they are not putting aside to go to school,� he said. Zane Maroney, a UNM alumnus, said he graduated in spring 2010 after attending UNM for six years. He said there were many reasons that it took longer than four years to graduate, including work, studying abroad for a year and changing his major. “I had to budget my time, and a lot of that time I spent at work to pay for school,� Maroney said. “I couldn’t take large class loads.� Goering said students have to average 16 hours every semester to graduate in four years. Only about 12 percent of UNM students graduate in four years, compared with about 20 percent of students at similar schools, he said. NMSU’s graduation rate (44 percent) is about 2 percent higher than UNM’s. One percent of students who enrolled in 2003 graduated six years later, according to the Performance Effectiveness Report, a survey of New Mexico universities. One way to increase graduation rates is by raising admission standards, Goering said, which the Board

of Regents did in the spring. UNM is also starting a two-year plan this fall that Goering hopes will increase UNM’s six-year graduation rate to 50 percent, an increase that would make UNM a leader in graduation rates among peer institutions. “There are a lot of people who pay a whole lot of money and don’t end up with a college degree,� he said. “Something about that isn’t right.� The new plan is an extension of the “Graduation Project,� which was started more than 10 years ago at UNM. With the older Graduation Project, advisers would call and e-mail students who were close to graduation but hadn’t enrolled for classes at UNM for a year. Advisers would encourage students to enroll, help them pick classes and offer some financial aid. UNM’s student-to-adviser ratio is 770 to 1, according to an Oct. 25 Daily Lobo report. That ratio is twice the national average and more than all of UNM’s peer institutions that had the

DL

data readily available. This fall, Goering said, a small group of advisers will extend the Graduation Project by developing a plan for personally contacting all UNM seniors who are close to graduating and making sure it happens. Goering said UNM spent $360,000 on 10 new advisers last year and will probably make a similar investment this year. “Individual focus will be the priority for the next two years,� he said. More advisers will probably have to be hired, so the plan doesn’t overwhelm employed advisers who work now, he said. Maroney said UNM advisement almost held him back from graduating on time by delaying his graduation date. “It ended up being the adviser not having the proper information and not knowing what my requirements were,� he said. “I know that’s why a lot of people are really untrustworthy of the advisement.�

Act tackles fake Native American art by Danielle Boudreau Daily Lobo

Your community store since 1978

An amendment in the state Indian Arts and Crafts Sales Act went into effect July 1, furthering efforts to prevent fraud in the Indian art market. William Keller of the New Mexico Attorney General’s Office Consumer Protection Division said the amendment will reduce the property value required for a felony charge from $20,000 to $500, making it easier to prosecute criminals. In addition, the attorney general’s office, along with the Indian Arts & Crafts Association, the federal Indian Arts & Crafts Board and local merchants associations are working together to spread awareness about Indian art misrepresentation. All the organizations collaborate to hold town halls and distribute information to retailers and consumers, said Nina Alexander, Indian Arts

& Crafts Board member. “We want to make sure that everyone is aware of the law. And every time we go out, we realize people aren’t,” she said. Although there have been no official studies, Keller said the industry estimates that up to 80 percent of all Indian art on the market is illegitimate. Much of it is imported from abroad, and consumers never see the country production labels, he said. “These are generally adhesive stickers that you can just pull off,” Keller said. “By the time they get to retail stores, those stickers are long gone.” Shane Hendren, Indian Arts and Crafts Association president and an award-winning artisan, said most of the money artists make goes back into authentic raw materials. “Silver is $18 an ounce and gold is over $1,000,” Hendren said. “A lot of artisans essentially (work) just to

rob Peter to pay Paul.” Worse, Alexander said retailers often aren’t aware of regulations, but there are some stores that know quite well that they’re selling inauthentic goods. “True artisans are not getting fair prices, because there are people sitting next to them selling bracelets — three for $20,” he said. For that reason, Chad Henderson, president of the Old Town Merchants Association, said the association will start a “welcome wagon” to inform new retailers of regulations. “I’ve been there a long time, and nobody’s told us half this stuff,” Henderson said. “We need to know.” Hendren said inauthentic art sales compound Native Americans’ difficult socioeconomic situation. Tribes can’t combat art fraud when they’re fighting for basic health care and education, Hendren said.

Disabled immigrants struggle for representation David Crary

Associated Press NEW YORK — Thousands of mentally disabled immigrants are entangled in deportation proceedings each year with little or no legal help, leaving them distraught, defenseless and detained as their fates are decided. Their plight is detailed in a report issued Sunday by Human Rights Watch and the American Civil Liberties Union, who exhort federal authorities to do better. Shortcomings outlined by the two groups include no right to appointed counsel, inflexible detention policies, insufficient guidance for judges on handling people with mental disabilities, and inadequately coordinated services to aid detainees while in custody. “No one knows what to do with detainees with mental disabilities, so every part of the immigration system has abdicated responsibility,� said Sarah Mehta, the report’s lead author. “The result is people languishing in detention for years while their legal files — and their lives — are transferred around or put on indefinite hold.� The report, “Deportation by Default,� documents cases of non-citizens who could not understand questions, were delusional, couldn’t tell the date or time, and didn’t understand the concept of deportation — for example, saying they wanted to be deported to New York. “Someone who doesn’t know their own name or what country they’re from is going through some of the most complicated legal proceedings in the United States with no right to assistance, even when everyone in the courtroom knows they need it,� Mehta said. The federal agencies involved in the deportation system are well aware of many of the problems cited in the report, and Mehta said she has been cautiously encouraged by some recent steps to better handle people with mental disabilities. For example, the Justice Department’s Executive Office of Immigration Review expanded its guidebook

for immigration judges this year to include a section on mental health issues, is producing a training video covering similar ground, and recently created a new post of “assistant chief immigration judge for vulnerable populations.� U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the agency that arrests and detains people facing deportation, will host a national forum in September seeking input from mental health experts on ways to improve its practices. “We all know it’s a challenging issue,� said Phyllis Coven, acting director of ICE’s office of detention policy and planning. She said her agency is taking preliminary steps to better identify mentally disabled people from the outset and ensure they are treated appropriately. Alternatives to detention would be sought for those who pose no public safety threat, she said. The new report urges Congress to require appointment of lawyers for all people with mental disabilities in immigration courts. It recommends mandatory training for immigration judges to recognize mental disabilities, and calls for repeal of a regulation allowing a mentally disabled detainee to be represented in court by the warden of the detention facility. Coven, in a telephone interview, said many of the recommendations were “well-placed.� “It would be in the interest of all parties to have these individuals, if they need to be in detention at all, to be assisted in their proceedings in immigration court,� Coven said. Though the vast majority of cases involve non-citizens, Human Rights Watch said some U.S. citizens with mental disabilities have ended up in ICE custody and even have been deported because they were unable to present their claims effectively. In the most recent such case cited in the report, Mark Lyttle — a North Carolina native diagnosed with bipolar disorder and developmental disabilities — was deported to Mexico in 2008, even though he spoke no Spanish.

NEWS IN BRIEF

German techno festival takes deadly turn DUISBURG, Germany — The death toll rose to 19 on Sunday and police said 342 had been injured in a panicked crush of partygoers in an overcrowded tunnel that served as the sole entrance to a German festival billed as the world’s largest techno music party. The founder of the Love Parade, Rainer Schaller, said it would never be held again. He spoke at a news conference where authorities faced tough questions, but provided few details, about why hundreds of thousands of people were funneled through a single highway underpass into the former freight railway station used to host the party. German media reported that there were at least 1.4 million people

but police did not immediately confirm that estimate. Witnesses said officers in Duisburg, a city near Duesseldorf in western Germany, closed the end of the tunnel emptying onto the festival grounds after they become overcrowded around 5 p.m. They told revelers over loudspeakers to turn around and walk back in the other direction. But the entrance to the tunnel did not appear to have been closed and people continued piling in, sparking a panic and then a deadly crush. Witnesses described a desperate scene, as people piled up on each other or scrambled over others who had fallen.

Engineers rush to finish oil spill cleanup NEW ORLEANS — Ships were get-

ting back in place Sunday at the Gulf of Mexico site of BP’s leaky oil well as crews raced to resume work on plugging the gusher before another big storm stops work again. Now that Tropical Storm Bonnie has fizzled on Louisiana’s coast, engineers are hoping clear weather lasts long enough for them to finish their work on relief wells. But as peak hurricane season approaches, the potential for another storm-related delay is high. “We’re going to be playing a catand-mouse game for the remainder of the hurricane season,� retired Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen said Saturday. Sure enough, another disturbance already was brewing in the Caribbean, although forecasters said it wasn’t likely to strengthen into a tropical storm. Late Saturday, a rig drilling the relief tunnel that will pump in mud and cement to seal the well returned to the spill site after evacuating the area.

WANT TO KNOW IF YOUR SUSHI IS GOOD?

In Japan, servings are bite sized. Having too large of pieces makes a mess; if the pieces are too small you can not taste the sushi. The correct size balances the two concepts. Traditional rolls, hosomaki (like tekkamaki) or kappamakki (cucumber roll) are a lot more difficult to roll than the American “inside out” rolls. Perfect Sushi Rice is very difficult to make here in Albuquerque because of the high altitude. Japanese rice does not stick together as well here and thus most restaurants either smash the grains or add extra sugar to make the rice stick. To make quality sushi rice here, the chef needs experience, knowledge and understanding.

REAL SUSHI LOVERS KNOW QUALITY SUSHI RICE.

Potential providers must have a board of directors, consisting of a medical provider and patients. Goodman said there is no law stating patients must buy marijuana from licensed dispensaries. “Some simply do without because they don’t want to buy illegally, even though it’s OK for them to do that,” Goodman said. “They’ll suffer through it. There are also plenty who say, ‘I can’t do this,’ and go to try and find a street source.”

Patients can grow their own plants or buy from street dealers, Busemeyer said. “That’s not our business,” she said. “Our patients are eligible to possess medical marijuana under state law, and how they get it is up to them.” But Lucero said street dealers are not a viable alternative to licensed dispensaries. “It’s very dangerous when you’re dealing with any type of drug dealer,” Lucero said. “You have people doing deals in parking lots and back allies instead of pharmacies, where the marijuana is controlled, regulated and assured to be of high quality.”

In response to the shortage, Goodman said NewMexicann’s adopted a “first-come, first-serve” distribution method, with limits on how much patients can buy at one time.

Young dancer keeps age-old form on its toes by Chris Quintana Daily Lobo

Some kids play baseball or dance ballet. Others practice a 3,000-yearold dance form. Since the ages of 7 and 8, Lonikia Majithia and Anita Rao have danced Bharatanatyam, an Indian dance form said to be one of the oldest in the world. The duo originally met when Majithia was a teacher and taught Rao. They now have an upcoming performance, “Natya Svaruup,” roughly translated to mean “The Timeless Dance.” But what might be more interesting is how they became involved with an ancient dance form at such young ages. At the age of 8, Rao entered Bharatanatyam thanks to the push of her mother. “My mom really wanted me to learn something like singing or dancing,” Rao said. “I really liked it, I

didn’t have any problems practicing because I enjoyed the stories and being on stage.” Majithia, head of the Kalakriti Dance Group, always considered dance as one of her interests. Because of some lucky circumstances in her home state of Illinois, she found an instructor to teach her Bharatanatyam. From there, Majithia said she chose to continue with it. “It just grew on me over the years,” Majithia said. “It was very structured and very disciplined. I think that’s what drew me to it.” Majithia moved to New Mexico and began working with an instructor. When she was 14 years old and already considered a qualified dancer, the main instructor left Albuquerque. It is then when she met Rao. Initially, Rao’s mother came to Majithia asking her to teach the class.

COMMUNITY EVENTS

At 14 years old, Majithia said it was difficult to become a teacher. “You want to laugh or do something else, but you have to make sure you’re professional and focused for the students,” Majithia said. Rao said her mother helped Majithia preside over the class at the time. “My mom took pity on her. She was like, ‘How can a 14-year-old actually take control of these 10-yearold kids’,” Rao said about her mother. “She was the disciplinarian for us.” Majithia said learning the form requires years of practice. Someone learning must go through levels before the graduation dance is allowed. This can take years. Majithia assured that Bharatanatyam is not something a person can pick up on a whim. “It’s one that takes a lot of dedication. Most of my students have been training for over five years,” Majithia said. “It’s not one of those dance forms where you can go in for a summer and come out and perform it. That’s just something that doesn’t happen.” Majithia and Rao said very few dancers stick with Bharatanatyam. Out of a class of 10 students, Majithia said only one or two complete the graduation dance.

Now, both Majithia and Rao are in college and still pursuing the dance form. Majithia, who still teaches while in medical school, said she sees dancing as a good release from her studies, Rao found a community of dancers to continue working with while she attends school in Pittsburgh. Majithia and Rao are now in their 10th year working together. They said their continued love of the dance is present in their performances. Those unfamiliar to Bharatanatyam are encouraged to attend the performance of “Natya Svaruup” on July 31 at 7 p.m. “It can be difficult because they are not going to understand the languages,” Majithia said. “But even if they don’t understand the language, they will be receptive to the movements between the group and the choreography of the dance. There is always something they can take from it.”

New Mexico Daily Lobo

‘Fractal Man’ fosters new approach to learning math by Alexandra Swanberg Daily Lobo

Jonathan Wolfe’s vision is as limitless as the fractals that dominate his mind. A balloonist, artist and scientist, “The Fractal Man” is on his way to spreading fractal knowledge worldwide. “It’s incredibly gratifying as an artist to impact so many people so powerfully,” Wolfe said. “It’s like taking some spark of imagination and making it real.” Wolfe’s passion for these simple and repeating, yet weirdly complex patterns began in 1987, when he was at Albuquerque Academy and his friend sketched one out. Not yet envisioning a career in fractals, he earned his doctorate in visual neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania, expecting to become a professor like his father. While researching his thesis, Wolfe traveled to Vermont to construct a tie-dyed hot air balloon. Upon completion, Wolfe had a post-doctorate fellowship available to him. However, the limited

influence of a typical neuroscientist left him wanting more. “I’d work really hard to publish a paper in a scientific journal and maybe 10 to 20 people would read it, and only a few would understand or care,” Wolfe said. “I wanted to make a bigger impact than that.” His change in motivation led him back to Albuquerque to pursue art and where his fractal balloon got attention. A school teacher invited him to teach her students fractals after she approached the landing site of his multi-colored balloon. He then became motivated to “fractalize” people. “Motivation is key. People are very smart. They can learn whatever they want,” Wolfe said. “They have to have a reason to learn. The way we teach math in school right now doesn’t motivate or inspire, and that’s what the great promise of fractals is.” Wolfe said he has already spoken to 30,000 children about fractals. His growing audience prompted him to gather a group of people, also interested in chaos complexity

fractals that now compose the Board of Directors for the Fractal Foundation. The foundation’s efforts have “fractalized� themselves, branching out as far as Australia where it is planning on establishing a sister foundation. Wolfe has spoken with museums around America about setting up fractal shows. “What we have is like the Holy Grail for science museums,� he said. In addition to maintaining and spreading the Foundation’s work, Wolfe is the New Mexico regional contact for Burning Man, an

annual collaborative artistic effort in Nevada. Though his energy is divided among many projects, his mission to open the world’s eyes to the possibilities illustrated by fractals has not weakened. He said he wants to shift society and its opinion of those considered geeky. Wolfe said he even plans to delve back into neuroscience research to discover the effect of fractal zooms on the human mind, and he potentially plans to collaborate with the Mind Research Network. The fractal shows are available for general audiences at the

planetarium, zooming to infinity with a soundtrack customized to sync with the visual dives. “One of the lessons I love sharing through fractals is that there are no limits,� he said.

Used bookstores down, but not out by Kevin Jackson Daily Lobo

Twenty years ago, there were dozens of used bookstores surrounding campus. Though that number shrank significantly, there are still a few places where bookworms can go to indulge in their passion for literature. Bird Song, on University Boulevard and Central Avenue, draws dozens of readers looking to buy or sell books while Book Stop, tucked away on the 3000 block of Silver Avenue, is a brick-and-mortar front to an intimate setting. Despite a shrinking market, used bookstore owners remain optimistic about their futures.

Bookstores

July 26 - August 15, 2010 / Page 21

from page 19

“I think there will always be little bookstores,� said Jerry Lane, owner of Book Stop. Book Stop wasn’t immune to the challenges of the market. Lane’s store, which opened in 1980, downsized from a 6,000-squarefoot location in Nob Hill to the 1,000-square-foot store on Silver Avenue. The 90s brought more competition from huge corporate bookstores like Barnes and Noble, while now the entire bookstore market has been bookended by a crawl to cyberspace. Yet, shopping for books online can be seen as robbing consumers of the romance of discovering something new and fun, of holding it in their hands, thumbing through the pages and reading the back cover. Bird Song has perhaps the most palpable romantic feel to it. The atmosphere at Bird Song is so picturesque that it often attracts both independent and student filmmakers to use the store as a backdrop. Perhaps that’s because many of the shelves come from other bookstores that have since closed. Or maybe it’s the friendly dog lying in the aisle between shelves. But most important, the store is haunted by the spirit of dead books. Some of the store’s bookshelves were salvaged from the fire that destroyed Bird Song in 1997. The shelves were scrubbed down and the most burnt portions were cut off, but impressions from the books that fueled the flames are still visible in the pine. Bird Song owner Martha J. Mullins attributes the spirited feeling to her own love of books. “It’s a labor of love. You really feel it when you walk in,� Mullins said. Her love for books has certainly contributed to Bird Song’s

success. But despite the shifting market, Mullins, like Lane, is optimistic about Albuquerque’s literary future. “People underestimate how many readers we have here,� she said. “We’re fortunate to have more bookstores than any other United States’ city of comparable size.� Fortunate indeed. At BYU, the last university I attended, in order to buy a used book that wasn’t a textbook, I’d have to drive to a neighboring city. At UNM, I can walk to any of three bookstores during my lunch break. And visiting a bookstore is much more fun than shopping for books on Amazon.com. It’s fun to physically browse the store. And Lane is right. I actually laughed out loud when I stumbled into the “Commie Pinko Stuff� section at Bird Song. At Book Stop, the strangest books are what actually make it out on the shelves, because they are what draw people into the store. For example, a lady from Chicago purchased a book on tape about horticulture while I was in the store. But what does one look for in such stores? It doesn’t matter. You’ll find it, even if you didn’t know what it was that you were trying to find. Mullins described Bird Song as “an eclectic mix — a reader’s bookstore.� She buys and sells books that she would like to read herself or knows others who would like to read them. Lane also described his Book Stop as a full mix. “It’s like a general grocery store, rather than a fine restaurant,� Lane said. “We’ve got a little bit of everything.� And there’s nothing quite like falling in love with a book that you found on the shelves of a used bookstore.

The El Rey Theater has a history that most local venues lack. Originally opening as movie theater in 1941, the El Rey is known for its old school vibe. Legends like Ella Fitzgerald and Bo Diddley once graced the historic stage with their presence. When the theater suffered extensive smoke damage in February 2008, there was some worry that it would no longer open its stage. Because of all the community support, the El Rey was renovated in no time. The venue itself is spacious and can house about 800 people. The majority of shows at the El Rey are contemporary adult genres

Student Health & Counseling (SHAC)

and local bands, but bigger acts are making their way the stage as well. A celebrated down tempo electronic duo, Pretty Lights, made a stop to a packed show at the El Rey in April. Upcoming notable acts include The Twelves, an eclectic and prominent electronic group from Rio de Janeiro; Lost Lingo, a local funky jam band; and Umphrey’s McGee, a jam band. The El Rey was built to carry sound, especially when there is a large crowd and a good sound guy. This gives it a lot of potential to become a premier venue for musical acts. Local music promoter for the band Atomic Bass Takeover, Patrick Bannan, said the only problem with the El Rey is it needs to schedule more shows. “I think they just don’t throw shows consistently enough to keep up a buzz,� Bannan said.

There is a bar area that is slightly elevated and overlooks the stage as well as a balcony. The inside is dark and the lighting is almost nonexistent. Joe Barrientos, a former UNM student and up-and-coming glitch/ dub step DJ in the Seattle music scene, said the Sunshine needs a sound upgrade. “Every time I have been to hip-hop shows there, you cannot hear the MCs when they all start rhyming together,� Barrientos said. “It’s not just hip-hop but music in general. The sound quality suffers.� Upcoming August shows include the Kottonmouth Kings and Coheed and Cambria, while Spoon and Of Montreal will play there in October.

Finding food to fit your fix and your finances can take some finesse and can be more challenging than an introductory physics class. Lucky for you, the Daily Lobo compiled a list of not-so-wellknown eateries close to campus. 20 Carrots 2110 Central Ave. (505) 242-1320 If you have been itching for mom’s kitchen, then 20 Carrots might be the place for you. The restaurant has been in the neighborhood for more than 20 years and is filled with cheesy art deco and knickknacks, and the tables are lined by gingham plastic tablecloths,.

Offering a large selection of vegetarian choices, 20 Carrots pays homage to the true mom-and-pop concept and is only open six days a week until 5 p.m. If business isn’t bustling, it closes even earlier. Ho Ho Central Inc. 2132 Central Ave. (505) 842-8166 Of course, we can’t beat cheap Chinese food. Ho-Ho’s is located on Yale Boulevard. This place won’t impress your date, but if you’re looking for a full meal at a changef o u n d - u n d e r- y o u r- c u s h i o n s price, then this is the place to dine. On the downside, Ho Ho’s gets marked for cleanliness, but its orange chicken and sweet-andsour pork are worth trying.

One of the best college basketball players in history, who happens to be from the Hoosier State, intends to make the Land of Enchantment his home for at least another nine years. At a July 20 news conference at the “Tow” Diehm Athletic Facility, Athletics Director Paul Krebs announced the contract extension details that will keep Steve Alford on as head basketball coach through the 2019-20 season. “Since I know about the success that Steve has had since day one, I had questions from a lot of Lobo fans and media, ‘How are we going to keep the coach?’” Krebs said. “Well, I think today you have details of the contract.” Alford, who received a contract extension April 3 to stay on will receive a bump in base compensation from $239,200 to $264,000 in 201011. The revised package for Alford will increase his salary to $503,200 annually on April 1, 2014. I know that when our staff got

It was a wait-and-see for fans, for the administration, the board of regents …” So far, what they’ve all seen is nothing but success. In 2009-10, the Lobos posted a regular-season 30-5 record that earned Alford $115,000 in incentives, pushing his total salary after incentives to $1,119,200. The Lobos earned a No. 3 seed in the East Region and advanced to the second round of the tournament before being defeated by Washington. The Lobos were also ranked in the top 25 for 12 weeks and finished the regular season No. 8 in the Associated Press poll, the second highest in school history.

Game results precursor of things to come by Ryan Tomari Daily Lobo

As a member of the UNM community, I have tried to stay optimistic about the upcoming 2010 UNM football season. After picking up NCAA Football 2011 at midnight at my local Walmart, consider my enthusiasm curbed. All things considered, in the end, the final score was Oregon 72, UNM 3. Video game or not, it’s a horrifying theme for students, alumni and local fans who support Lobo Athletics. It doesn’t help that, before deciding to switch and play with Rutgers University, my father’s alma mater, I ignored the fact that UNM might be the worst team in the game. However, I stayed loyal to my future alma mater by creating my own Lobo dynasty. I chose “Heisman” mode, the most difficult play setting, and began the 2010 season at Oregon. In doing so, I forgot that EA rates each college football team, assigning a letter grade to the offense and defense, as well as an overall team rating. Here’s the breakdown: Offensively, we didn’t pass football 101 last semester. The grade was a D+, while the defense managed a C. And how about overall? Another D+. But it’s not all cloudy around the Lobos’ virtual world. Since the NCAA doesn’t have a players union, real player names

can’t be used in the game, except UNM middle linebacker Carmen Messina, who looks like and wears the same equipment as the real Messina, has a rating of 90. He is probably the reason why UNM’s defense didn’t sink to a D+. When choosing to play with UNM in “Dynasty” mode, the athletics director gives you three preseason goals: 1. Beat rival NMSU. 2. Receive a bowl bid. 3. Beat Oregon. I don’t want to be the bearer of bad news or Mr. Negativity, but even on a video game these goals are nearly impossible tasks. That in mind, things were starting to look up. My opening drive was successful. I sustained a long, wellcoached drive and executed on almost every running and passing play I called. Unfortunately, I was stopped inside the Oregon 30-yard line. Thus, I kicked a field goal. “Wow,” is the first thing that crossed my mind, followed by, “I might have a legitimate chance at staying in this game and not being blown out of the Pacific waters.” The 115th ranked team in the country was up 3-0 on the No. 4 school. My positivity lasted about two minutes. From the point when the Ducks’ offense touched the ball for their first drive, the tropical storm formed. By the end of the first quarter,

lobo men’s basketball

Granger is no stranger to NM basketball by Shawn Abeita Daily Lobo

Becoming a star in the NBA: relentless. Being selected to tryout for the U.S. Men’s National Basketball team: joyous. Returning to the community that feels most like home: priceless. Former UNM men’s basketball standout Danny Granger was back in Albuquerque hosting his fifth annual basketball skills camp from July 12-15. “Albuquerque has that thing about community and family,” Granger said. “When you come back, it always feels like home. I guess that’s the enchantment of New Mexico.” Granger, a five-year NBA veteran, averaged 24.2 points per game, and 5.2 rebounds per game in 62 total games last season. He only saw action in those 62 games last season, because his campaign shortened after tearing a tendon in his foot. The Pacers missed the playoffs for a third straight year, but Granger said he is optimistic about making a run at the playoffs next season. “I was able to quickly recover from it, and I came back and played well,” Granger said. “But I think next year it is important for us to develop a sense of chemistry as a team. In the past three or four years, we rotated a lot of players in and out.” After signing a five-year extension with the Pacers, Granger is quickly becoming the team’s

cornerstone. “Being the face of the franchise is a huge responsibility,” Granger said “Part of this responsibility involves winning, so that is another goal of our team now.” Mark Walters, former Lobo guard and one of Granger’s teammates, said Granger stressed team cohesiveness at his time at UNM. “Danny was one of the bigger advocates about doing things together as a team,” Walters said. “We did everything together as a team, whether it be getting something to eat or going to the movies. We did it as a team. That’s the thing that I remember the most and it allowed us to become close. And I think that is one reason why we were so good while he was here.” Walters said he is not surprised that became a star in the NBA. He said Granger is constantly working on his skills and continues to put in the extra work on the court. And that work never seems to stop. The summer break hasn’t begun for Granger. He was recently selected to participate in the U.S. Men’s National Team camp in Las Vegas, Nev. and is scheduled to report to camp July 19. “I was very happy to be invited to the team camp,” Granger said. “The opportunity to win a gold medal, whether it’s the World Championships or the Olympics is a huge opportunity. That, for me, would be a monumental accomplishment in my basketball career. So I am definitely looking to do that and we will see where it takes me.”

HGH test has short detection period by Ronald Blum Associated Press

NEW YORK — A scientist who has worked to develop a urine test for human growth hormone says the blood test baseball plans to use for minor leaguers can only detect the substance for six to 12 hours. Don Catlin said on July 23 that the test, announced a day earlier by baseball commissioner Bud Selig, is of limited use. In February, a British rugby league player became the first athlete suspended following a positive HGH test. “The fact that it’s been around for a few thousand tests and only one positive suggests that either there’s much less growth hormone being used than we thought, which is doubtful, or the period of detectability is really pretty short -- a few hours. It’s probably the latter,� said Catlin, adding detection probably would work only with “middle-ofthe-night testing.� Players with minor league contracts will be given the blood test, which Selig called “a significant step.� Victor Conte, whose Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative triggered a federal investigation of steroids use and distribution among athletes, also criticized the blood test. He said it would detect little and called it “flawed� because baseball

will collect only postgame blood samples. “It wouldn’t take much of an IQ for a player to circumvent this proposed HGH testing procedure,� he wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press. “A baseball player could possibly inject HGH as soon as leaving a ballpark and test negative from a blood sample collected postgame the following day. HGH injections are routinely done at night before bed, so a morning blood sample would be the target. The available test for HGH requires a random blood collection protocol to be considered anything more than a PR move by MLB.� Rob Manfred, baseball’s executive vice president of labor relations, said baseball was taking whatever steps it could. “We are using the best available technology for the detection of HGH,� he said. Gary Wadler, who leads the World Anti-Doping Agency committee that determines the bannedsubstances list, said any test is better than none. Plus, he said HGH likely will be detected by it. “It’s not the kind of drug you take once and now you get tested weeks later, it’s gone,� he said. “Sure, it will be gone. But that’s not how you use it. You use it, you basically take it every day. So the detection window becomes less

important in something you take on a regular basis.� And he argues testing will make athletes think harder about using. “It does work. It is a deterrent,� he said. “Even though it’s not anywhere near where we are with steroid testing, it’s sufficiently developed and validated to say it should be incorporated into anti-drug testing.� Because no independent data on the HGH test has been published, no steps have been taken toward implementing it for unionized players on 40-man major league rosters. The current drug plan and labor contract run until December 2011, but the Major League Baseball Players Association said it would agree to a validated urine test for HGH. “I think they’re starting it in the minor leagues to make sure there are no flaws,� said San Diego pitcher Heath Bell, the Padres player representative. “If it was a urine test, I think we’d be all for it. And if it’s a blood test, you can’t tell a guy who’s going to pitch nine innings or play nine innings, ‘Here, I need a little vial of blood first,’ because some guys get a little queasy.� Minnesota Twins outfielder Michael Cuddyer said minor leaguers would be guinea pigs for the test.

UNM men’s basketball team’s 200910 season was, Krebs said it was necessary the University rewarding Alford with additional incentives. “I think in this case we are talking about a shared vision that unifies, in my opinion, the University,�

Krebs said. “(We’re) not just talking about it. We are showing our students that they can be the best and brightest in the country. They can compete on any field, whether it be academics or athletics. In any vocation, they can be successful.�

FDA probe could lead to another fallen hero by Isaac Avilucea Daily Lobo

Jumbled in the labyrinth of litigation, among the supposed exposÊs, and building and falling evidence of admissions and retractions, is the proverbial, highstakes, good-guys-bad-guys game, one that will be viewed through discriminatory lenses depending on what side of the chicken wire you’re on. Much like war, who plays the heroes is largely a matter of perspective. In this case, will it be the pursuers or the pursued — the United States or famed cyclist Lance Armstrong? For years, allegations of steroid use have hounded Armstrong. Now, with disgraced cyclist Floyd Landis as its key witness, the Food and Drug Administration has launched an investigation into cycling’s underground skin-deep, resultsbased culture. Extenuating circumstances only complicate the matter. For cycling purists — imagining they exist, though the sport has long been contaminated — there’s no question: Cheaters deserve infamous punishment not prosperous posterity. But for those fans who acknowledge the paucity of straight-shooters in the steroids era — an era that extends across all sports, but is just more visible in certain ones — use and abuse has become an accepted ethos, a determinant of winners. To win, you must sin, only the advent of moral relativism blurs the win-at-allcosts line. Of course, the underpinning of logic behind it is: If everybody’s cheating, is anybody cheating? The simple answer is yes. After all, rules are rules, and bend but don’t break doesn’t apply here. If Armstrong — the quintessential American, clean and puritanical athlete who has dodged dogged allegations of performance-enhanced cheating — was juiced

up on synthetics, what in American sporting culture isn’t fabricated? The sad realization will be compounded by the fact that Armstrong is an inspirational icon, having defeated the scourge of testicular cancer. Should it come to light that Armstrong doped, the outrage will be swift, salty and unrepentant. There will be no introspection, no re-examination of what led Armstrong to accept steroids into his patented training regimen. Still, it’s worth noting that the perversion of American culture, our capitalistically fueled infatuation with ultimate competition, will be responsible for Armstrong’s buildup and unraveling. Even more sobering, it will be based on Landis’ sensational hearsay. Neatly packaged all in one, Landis is a snitch and a whistleblower, a liar and a crusader for truth. Years of denying he doped, when he registered high levels of testosterone/epitestosterone in a drug test after winning the 2006 Tour de France, sullies his credibility. That said, as much as he is a syringe of lies, his complex account describing the way dopers avoid detection is not as perforated as his image. No matter how inconvenient, it’s impossible to write off Landis’ claims. That’s why one of the best in the business has been contracted to investigate the validity of Landis’ accusations. In a lengthy set-the-stage article, Time Magazine described Jeff Novitzky, an investigator for the Food and Drug Administration, as the “Elliot Ness of the steroid era.� Isn’t it evermore apropos then that Novitzky is dealing with The Untouchable (Armstrong)? Yet it is without hesitation that he dare explore Armstrong’s possible wrongdoing, unafraid of the farreaching implications it could have on everyone who has ever drank the Livestrong Kool-Aid.

. Foreclosure — Save your home! . . . Repos — Keep your car!

A little more background and it becomes clear that Novitzky, the man who helped uproot baseball’s dirty little secret in the BALCO investigation, is as coiled as a rattlesnake, showing the same coldblooded indifference that helped the Nesses and Melvin Pervises of the world ensnare notorious criminals like Al Capone and bank robber John Dillinger. By way of the analogy that would mean that Armstrong is perhaps on his way to becoming an immensely more endearedto-the-public Dillinger. While it’s far too premature to say charges appear in Armstrong’s future, despite what biker Greg LeMond told The Denver Post would be an “overwhelming case� against the fabled American, it is clear Novitzky has his network of informants. On the backs of two soured Armstrong adversaries and a slew of subpoenaed others, Novitzky will build his case brick by brick, but will Armstrong be able to huff and puff and blow Novitzky’s investigative abode down, or will it be exposed that it’s actually America’s beloved hero who occupies a house of cards? At the end of all this, even if Armstrong is vindicated, the damage has been done. Tainted public perception is as good as the admission of guilt. Had there been no doubt surrounding Armstrong before, his legacy might have been able to skate by unscathed. Yet having any historical basis on Armstrong makes one weary of his innocence, even though he’s passed every drug test he’s been administered. In 1999, Armstrong had an encounter with Christophe Bassons, a former professional racing cyclist turned writer. Since the 1998 Festina scandal, in which a cache of drugs was found in car driven to team riders in the Tour de France, Bassons became an opponent of performance-enhancing drugs. He was

apparently, according to two riders quoted in the publication France Soir, the only rider who didn’t “load the cannon.â€? In 1999, Armstrong told Bassons in the Alpe d’Huez stage that it was a mistake for Bassons to speak out about the sport’s rampant drug use. In less cynical times, Armstrong might have just been trying to garner support for the sport back in his homeland, where ratings in the preArmstrong era were insufferably poor. But that doesn’t exonerate him from endorsing a hush, blind-eye culture. On top of that, in 2004, two reporters published a damaging book L.A. Confidentiel : Les secrets de Lance Armstrong about Armstrong’s alleged drug use. The book, however, was written off as completely circumstantial. Following up on that in 2005, a French newspaper published a story saying that six of Armstrong’s 1999 Tour de France urine samples, which were stored at a laboratory, came back positive for erytherythropoietin. Again, Armstrong vehemently denied the allegations, writing on his website that the “witch hunt continuesâ€? — a phrase he recently invoked when telling reporters on what conditions he’d cooperate with Novitzky’s investigation. Perhaps that’s what spurs on Novitzky’s whole investigation. Arguably, saying Landis’ claims are malicious isn’t far-fetched, but given the surrounding speculation, Novitzky’s probe doesn’t appear to be motivated by sink-or-float logic. With the news that Alberto Contador won his third straight Tour de France, Armstrong’s stranglehold on the event is diminished. Could it be coincidence that The Untouchable’s legacy will be next to go? With “Elliot Nessâ€? at the handlebars steering the investigation’s direction, that question might soon be answered.

PARIS — Alberto Contador stood atop the podium at the Tour de France on Sunday for the third time in four years, struggling to rein in his emotions as Spain’s national anthem echoed across the wide boulevard of the Champs-Elysees. Off to one side, Lance Armstrong applauded and then, without much fanfare, headed toward the exit. “I need a cold beer,” he said when asked his thoughts at the finish line. Rarely has the emergence of a sport’s newest superstar dovetailed so neatly with the departure of the last one. Contador held off a next-to-last day challenge from Andy Schleck of Luxembourg, his runner-up for a second consecutive year, draining much of the drama from the 20th and final stage. Denis Menchov of Russia was third overall. Victoria’s Ryder Hesjedal showed he belongs with the sport’s elite, moving up one spot in Saturday’s time trial to finish seventh overall. It’s Canada’s best showing since Steve Bauer’s fourth in 1988. Armstrong completed his last Tour in 23rd place, 39:20 behind Contador, his former teammate and rival. His crash-filled journey was a far cry from the third-place finish he posted in 2009 on his return from a four-year retirement. Yet the sport the 38-year-old American leaves behind hardly wants for budding stars eager to lead the way. Schleck, for one, promises he’ll

win the yellow jersey one day. That promise could produce the next great Tour rivalry, but this year, it wasn’t always sporting. The high-drama point in the race — and the low-point in their avowed friendship — came in Stage 15. Wearing the yellow jersey, Schleck mounted an attack against Contador on a Pyrenean climb. Suddenly, Schleck’s chain came undone, and he pedalled in vain. Contador sped ahead, and by the stage finish, had taken yellow and 39 seconds on Schleck — his margin of overall victory. Many cycling aficionados cried foul, saying Contador had broken the sport’s unwritten etiquette about not taking advantage of unlucky breaks a rider can’t control — especially when he was wearing yellow. Some fans jeered Contador, and he later apologized on YouTube. Schleck, who was fist-swatting angry at first, eventually patched things up with his rival and urged the crowd to as well. By the time they wheeled into Paris for the finale, the coronation trumped any lingering controversy. “I suffered to get this result,” said Contador, before hoisting the victor’s cup, the Arc de Triomphe looming spectacularly in the background. “I don’t have words to express what I feel.” Schleck pointed to Contador’s yellow shirt. “This year, it didn’t work. I have a rendezvous in one year with that color there,” he said. “I am better than last year because then it (the

Tour de France from page 32 deficit) was four minutes.” Mark Cavendish of Britain claimed his fifth stage victory this Tour and 15th in his career in a sprint at the end of the 20th and final stage — largely a ceremonial 102.5-kilometre course from Longjumeau to Paris. Hesjedal started the race as a support rider for Garmin-Transitions star Christian Vandevelde, but took the initiative after the injured American had to withdraw after two stages. Toronto’s Michael Barry, a support rider for Team Sky star Bradley Wiggins, finished 99th overall. Spain’s Carlos Sastre was 20th to lead the Canadian-owned Cervelo team. The 27-year-old Contador exchanged hugs with his Astana teammates, who began chanting “Ole, Ole, Ole, Ole” on the Champs-Elysees, where thousands of fans lined the route to cheer the cyclists. He now joins Greg LeMond, Louison Bobet and Philippe Thys as a three-time Tour champion. His win added to Spain’s recent sports success — coming off its World Cup victory, and Rafael Nadal’s win at Wimbledon. Armstrong is the most successful Tour rider ever, with his wins from 1999 to 2005. His last ride in this, his favorite race, began in controversy and ended under a cloud of suspicion, following accusations by former teammate Floyd Landis that Armstrong used performance-enhancing drugs to win. Landis was stripped of his 2006 Tour title after a positive test and later admitted doping. His allegations against Armstrong and others helped launch a federal investigation. Armstrong has never tested positive and as he has in the past, again denied any

“That’s how it’s always been,� he said. “But at the same time, if it helps us get to a point where you test, I’m all for it.� Tampa Bay Rays manager Joe Maddon predicted use of the test eventually will expand to the big leagues. “I think it is a wise decision to start there,� he said. “I believe that eventually it will progress to this level — after we make sure we work out all the kinks. We have to find out what works, what doesn’t.� Catlin was critical of WADA for not allowing independent analysis of the HGH test. “I can’t go to the literature and read a scientific article that gives me the data,� he said. “WADA will have that, but they don’t display it.

Wadler said there soon may be a marker test that could be used in conjunction with the first one, similar to how testosterone/epitestosterone (T/E) ratio tests are used in conjunction with carbon isotope tests to detect the difference between natural and artificial testosterone. Catlin abandoned his attempt to develop a test based on mass spectrometry and amino acids because not enough HGH was present in urine. He needs a commitment of $1 million to $2 million to attempt to develop a urine test based on aptamers, molecules

that act similar to antibodies. His abandoned test received $900,000 in funding. He said it would take about three years to create the new test, and he hasn’t yet started discussions with MLB and the NFL on whether they would like to fund the study. Validity of any test is a chief concern. “There can be a lot of backlash because of a false test that gets out and all of a sudden a player is labeled and he never did anything,� Pirates manager John Russell said. “That’s tough to get over. So I think the integrity of how they do it is going to be the main thing. If they can do it where it’s proper and it’s done the right way, I’m sure it will get in.�
