The Independent Student Voice of UNM since 1895
The dueling gun control bills introduced this legislative session have officially been taken off the table, for now. Last week, House Bill 77, which aimed to tighten restrictions on gun sales, was held up in the House Judiciary Committee by an 8-8 tie vote. HB 114, which aimed to make enforcement of federal gun laws in New Mexico a thirddegree felony, was defeated by a 3-2 vote last week in the House Public Affairs Committee. Both bills could be revived and resubmitted for voting if lawmakers could agree on amendments that would address both bills’ questionable provisions. For HB 77, this includes re-examining the strictness of required background checks. To bring back HB 114, lawmakers would have to iron out the
A number of UNM-related bills are making their way through the Senate. These four bills passed through the Senate Education Committee today and are scheduled next for the Senate Finance Committee, hearing dates to be determined: “UNM Architecture School Community Outreach,” aims to expand the school’s outreach program by channeling $100,000 to the school of architecture’s Design and Planning Assistance Center to aid in economic development in rural and low-income areas of the state.

constitutional conflicts the bill creates between federal and state government. Friday also saw debate intensify on UNMrelated bills in the House Education Committee. The committee released fiscal impact reports and Legislative Education Study Committee analyses for six bills covering topics such as expanding UNM’s dental sciences program and creating an initiative to jumpstart spaceflight technology and business development at UNM. On Monday, five of these six bills passed through the House Education Committee, and are headed to the next round of House committee voting, hearing dates to be determined. HB 320, “UNM We the People Program,” was not put to a vote at that time. Rep. Rick Miera (DAlbuquerque) sponsored the bill, which seeks $15,000 for the continued operation of the “We the People, the Citizen and the Constitution” (see box) program at the University.

UNM Land Grant Studies: The fiscal impact report for the bill notes that HB 26 duplicates an already existing appropriation for UNM’s land grant studies program in the General Appropriation Act for fiscal year 2014. Furthermore, the Legislative Education Study Committee analysis states there is a specific process for bills that earmark budget requests for specific higher education institution programs, and
HB 26 did not go through those channels. UNM College of Public Health: The fiscal impact report released for this bill expresses concern that the bill duplicates sections of several other bills that relate to public health college initiatives at other universities around the state, citing the need to have a single centralized public health infrastructure. However, the report acknowl-

UNM Minority Math, Science and Engineering Program: The fiscal impact report and Legislative Education Study Committee analysis support the bill’s move to appropriate $150,000 to ensure the Mathematics, Science and Engineering Achievement Program continues to help underrepresented minorities work toward college degrees in those fields. UNM Venture Space Incubator: The fiscal impact report and the Legislative Education Study Committee analysis support UNM’s LoboSpace Small Business Incubator program, and they both acknowledge UNM did not request additional funding for its program. The LESC analysis notes that such an earmarked request needs to go through

UNM We the People Program: The fiscal impact report released for this bill supports the appropriation of $15,000 to ensure the continued operation of “We the People: The Citizen and the Constitution.” This local program connects New Mexico to a national agency, the Center for Democracy and Civic Education, which focuses on U.S.

NM budget surplus poised to be smaller than expected by Ross Kelbley
news@dailylobo.com The state hasn’t properly balanced its checkbook for more than six years, according to the New Mexico Department of Finance and Administration. DFA Public Information Officer Tim Korte said the DFA warned lawmakers that New Mexico’s cash surplus in fiscal year 2014 could be $70 million to $460 million less than expected. He said it is unclear exactly how large the cash discrepancy is. Nonetheless, the state has allotted $70 million in the FY 2014 budget to accommodate the potential liability, although it could take as long as a year before the exact shortfall is established, Korte said. According to a DFA document titled “Cash Reconciliation Briefing,” the problem began in 2006 with the implementation of a new computer accounting system called Statewide Human Resource Accounting and Managerial Reporting System, or SHARE. According to the document, SHARE had problems converting the previously separate accounting systems used by various agencies into one centralized system. Because of this, individual agencies have reported amounts that are higher than what is reflected in bank accounts managed by the treasurer’s office. Korte said that because many agencies have recorded their transactions improperly, it is impossible to determine the exact amount of the discrepancy without further research. Korte said the amount of the liability was based on the department’s most recent estimates, which are from the last fiscal year. Because the amount that DFA confirmed is not final, it is unclear if funding for academic programs in UNM or in the UNM Hospital will be affected.

“At this point, the only financial impact we have confirmed is the $70 million liability, which would come from general funds,” he said. “I don’t know if this will actually directly affect the Higher Education Department or any of the universities specifically.” Korte said that despite how long it has been a problem, the budget discrepancy did not come to light until October 2011. “The problem wasn’t identified until state controller Ricky Bejarano was appointed by Gov. Martinez,” Korte said. “The people who were appointed to these types of positions by Gov. Martinez were not aware of the situation until they came into office. ... As to why it wasn’t detected or why it wasn’t publicized before Gov. Martinez, that’s a question for Gov. Richardson or (former state controller) Anthony Armijo,” said Korte. The Daily Lobo could not find Armijo’s contact information, and Richardson was not immediately available for comment as of press time. According to a DFA document titled “Book to Bank Reconciliation and Remediation Efforts,” the DFA is taking comprehensive measures to ensure proper cash reconciliation in the future. According to the document, state agencies will be required “to participate in interactive training sessions.” The document also stated that “customizations that were made to SHARE to accommodate outdated business processes” will be eliminated. According to the “Cash Reconciliation Briefing,” consultants who are experienced with SHARE software have already determined what changes officials need to make. According to the document, these officials have started to implement changes across various state agencies, and the DFA expects the changes to be fully implemented by July.

WTC workers leave legacy
World Trade Center graffiti reflects spirit of rebuilding ground zero by Verena Dobnik The Associated Press
NEW YORK — On most construction projects, workers are discouraged from signing or otherwise scrawling on the iron and concrete. At the skyscraper rising at ground zero, though, they’re being invited to leave messages for the ages. “Freedom Forever. WTC 9/11” is scrawled on a beam near the top of the gleaming, 104-story One World Trade Center. “Change is from with-

The message on it reads: “We remember. We rebuild. We come back stronger!” It is signed by a visitor to the site last year — President Barack Obama. The words on beams, walls and stairwells of the skyscraper that replaces the twin towers lost on Sept. 11,
2001, form the graffiti of defiance and rebirth, what ironworker supervisor Kevin Murphy calls “things from the heart.” They’re remembrances of the 2,700 people who died, and testaments to the hope that rose from a shattered morning. “This is not just any construction site, this is a special place for these guys,” says Murphy of the 1,000 men and some women who work in the building at any given time, 24

NEW MEXICO DAILY LOBO Dr. Angela Wandinger-Ness
Professor researching cancer cure using pain drug by John Tyczkowski news@dailylobo.com
A UNM professor and her team are one step closer to finding a cure for cancer. Angela Wandinger-Ness, a professor in the University’s Department of Pathology, and Laurie Hudson in the College of Pharmacy are working on a new approach to cure cancer. In November, Wandinger-Ness was one of nine women in New Mexico who won the 2012 Women in Technology Award from the New Mexico Technology Council after six years of work on her project. Her research focuses on repurposing an FDA-approved drug normally used to treat pain to instead inhibit GTPases, which are enzymes that cause cancerous tumors when mutated or over-expressed. “It’s like taking a monkey wrench and throwing it into the spokes of a wheel, and it causes the wheel to lock up,â€? Wandinger-Ness said. “We take a small drug ‌ bind it to the (enzyme), and it freezes it and turns it off.â€? Her efforts have earned UNM two grants, one from the Department of Defense and the other from the National Cancer Institute. Both grants fund efforts to refine Wandinger-Ness’s breakthrough. Wandinger-Ness said her team chose ovarian cancer patients for their clinical trials, due to the extreme difficulty of diagnosing and treating that particular variety of cancer, and the spe-
cific role that GTPases play in causing ovarian tumors. “By the time the patient comes in the clinic, they’re in a very advanced stage of the disease,â€? Wandinger-Ness said. “It’s a disease where you can really make a difference, if you can treat it better.â€? Wandinger-Ness’s drug-based approach stands in contrast to the standard treatment for ovarian cancer, which is invasive surgery to remove pieces of the tumor, and follow-up chemotherapy treatments to destroy remaining cells. However, such broad-spectrum chemotherapy usually destroys healthy cells alongside cancerous cells. “Our idea is to reduce the collateral damage that chemotherapy normally brings,â€? Wandinger-Ness said. “We would give the patient the drugs before surgery to specifically target GTPases. The idea is to keep the cancer cells from regrowing after surgery and make chemotherapy work better.â€? Though the drug used has already been approved, Wandinger-Ness said wide distribution of the cancer treatment could be about five years away, because there is still one major challenge to figure out. “There are two compounds in the drug ‌ like a right hand and a left hand, and they both do different things,â€? she said. “What we would need to do first is purify the drug, and find the compound that targets GTPases specifically ‌
William Aranda / Daily Lobo UNM Professor Angela Wandinger-Ness, 54, goes over an assignment with third-year Ph.D. student Yuna Guo at the UNM Cancer Research Center. Wandinger-Ness and her team repurposed a drug used to treat pain to block cancercausing proteins. Her work has earned UNM two research grants. and give that to the patients.� This treatment could also branch off into helping patients suffering from other cancers where GTPase switches are involved, such as colon cancer and breast cancer, she said. Though the process was difficult, she said
she never lost her motivation. “It’s rewarding to take a discovery in the laboratory and take it all the way to a patient,� Wandinger-Ness said. “I love science, and I like to see it translate to something that can make a difference.�

From bamboo shoots to flutes Nob Hill artist carries on the craft of flute carving
“The first flute I made was the most inspiring. It had a great piece of art, it had a samurai image, sitting in the lotus position, rain pouring down on his patty hat. It had a beautiful voice,” he said. “My teacher Ingrid played it, she shed a tear and said ‘I’ve obviously taught you everything that I can; you can take this art somewhere else.’” After his apprenticeship, Hooke said he went on to promote his work at small shops around Albuquerque. In 2008, Hooke’s networking led him to volunteer at Peacecraft, an arts and crafts store in Nob Hill. Hooke said he began fixing drums for the store after noticing most of its equipment was in poor shape. “I’d like to think there’s a lot of drums out there that are on the shelf or in the closet, and they don’t get played, but really there’s a spirit within the drum that needs to be shared. That’s the drive: I’m helping somebody grow in some way,” he said. After volunteering at the store for a year, Hooke said he began selling his flutes at The Kosmic Shaman and the Rainbow Gathering, an annual international gathering that promotes peace and community. Hooke said he looks for a connection between his customer and

Dan Hooke may have built a career around music and instruments, but he said he would never consider himself a musician. “I just was never musically trained. I’m really clumsy,” Hooke said. “I’m more of a creator than a musician. I like to build.” Hooke, who works at The Kosmic Shaman in Nob Hill, crafts bamboo flutes and fixes drums. Hooke carves each flute by hand, whittling holes into the freshly grown bamboo, most of which he grows himself. Before Hooke is done, he slowly burns an image across the underbelly of each flute, giving each instrument a unique signature. Hooke said local flute-maker Ingrid Burg sparked his interest in making flutes when he met her at the ASUNM Arts & Crafts Fair in 2006. The two connected over a shared interest in working with their hands, he said, so he worked under Burg as an apprentice for a year, learning the tricks of the flute-making trade.

a flute before selling to that person. “There’s an exchange you get from another person when they find their flute — or when their flute finds them, rather. There’s a sense of satisfaction that’s almost unsurpassed; you’re giving a person a new outlook on life and a different practice to partake in,” he said. “You won’t find me flipping burgers for people — that appreciation isn’t there.” Elizabeth Love, one of Hooke’s students, plays two bamboo flutes she bought from him. Love said she appreciates Hooke’s approach, because everyone has a personal connection with his or her flute. “He really takes time when you are interested in learning how to play; he takes time to sit with you and teach you, so you have some kind of theory and knowledge,” Love said. “You have a unique artist who is hands-on and a wonderful teacher and guide.”
Dan Hooke heats up a tool used to brand designs onto his handmade bamboo flutes. Hooke said each design is unique, a signature for each flute. Sergio Jiménez / Daily Lobo

An ounce of prevention keeps away the pounds Editor, Why am I passionately devoted to health? I saw my mother and my dad both suffer severe illness for decades, largely because of junk food and too little exercise, sunshine and good sleep. I took my mother to a nutrition specialist in Houston in 1975. He asked her, “Why have you done this to your body?” From that day on, 37 and a half years ago, I made up my mind to be healthy. I do not want to suffer the hell she and my dad endured. Life is hard enough as it is when we are healthy. No other material possession can give us more misery or more pleasure than our body.
No one gets fat, or will stay fat, eating only whole, raw plant foods I am strongly sexually attracted to certain lean, fit, healthy men, so I eat and exercise to be lean, fit and healthy myself. No one gets fat, or will stay fat, eating only whole, raw plant foods — greens, fruit, seeds, nuts and soaked grains. Any fat person who changes to eating only whole, raw plant foods and exercising every day will lose the fat. No need for our waists and weight to balloon as the years roll by. Every morning in my room, I exercise vigorously one and a half hours. I also walk much. I have ridden in no car for 11 years. Preventing disease is always far better and cheaper than treating disease. Most U.S. hospital beds would be empty and drug companies’ sales would plunge if we all got serious about living healthy. As a youth I was sadly addicted to eating crap. With the help of many people, I woke up and changed. We can change. Don Schrader Daily Lobo reader

Column
Hating on Hollywood, musing on music by Jason Darensburg Daily Lobo columnist opinion@dailylobo.com
I got back from Los Angeles on Jan. 28, the final part of my 50th birthday celebrations. I was in LA to hook up with some old friends, among other things. Boy, what an amazing, busy, grotesquely perfect metropolis Southern California is. The beach and the mountains are within a day’s drive. At 30,000 feet, you can easily see them both from the window of a Boeing 727. Usually you can see the smog, too. My wife and I moved from Riverside, about 60 miles inland from LA, to Albuquerque almost 20 years ago, but we’ve been back to LA several times over the years. Still, whenever I return to LA, I’m struck by the mind-boggling enormity of it all. From above, it’s most impressive. But while I gaze down from my window seat as we descend through the clouds, I’m also reminded of why we left LA in the first place: too much traffic, too many people, nowhere to park, way too expensive to buy a house and not enough decent jobs. Another issue I have with LA is Hollywood and what passes for the “entertainment industry.” What a narcissistic bunch of self-congratulating incompetents they are. Year after year, they shove a poor-quality product down our throats, mixed in with a few very lucky exceptions. I mean, how many bad remakes of already awful movies do we need? The American movie industry has been stagnating for many years. I grew to loathe celebrities and the mediocrity they stood for. Trust me, most of them are no more talented than you or I; they just know someone in the business, or, more likely, they’re related in some way to a celebrity. You think nepotism is bad in New Mexico? It’s nothing compared to the entertainment industry. I became convinced an earthquake was going to wipe the place out any minute. It could still happen. In some ways, it should still happen. It would be great if the San Andreas Fault miraculously opened up directly beneath Hollywood, sending all the studios and actors and writers and producers down to the hellfires below where they belong, leaving the rest of the city intact, and saving us all from banality and mediocrity forever. I’ve given up hope of this ever occurring in my lifetime, however. Forgive me. Despite all that, I still love LA. What I really miss
about the big city is the huge support for the arts in the metro, and the promotion of a variety of cultures, with plenty of museums, libraries, a vibrant nightlife and a downtown where you can go and enjoy live music without having to worry about getting stabbed. And how about a decent newsstand on a corner somewhere? Nothing is open after 10 p.m. in this town except the bars, even on the weekends. It would be nice to have a real beach, too. I miss having 24-hour access to everything, though, not just Wal-Marts and fast food joints. The Frontier isn’t even open 24 hours anymore. I mean, it’s beautiful here and everything, and the people are real nice, but the luster has kind of worn off of Albuquerque over the years, especially for a big-city boy like me.
How many bad remakes of already awful movies do we need? The American movie industry has been stagnating for many years. Part of the reason I was in LA was to check out the annual North American Music Merchants gathering at the Anaheim Convention Center. The event is pretty amazing. It’s incredibly huge, but not open to the public. You have to know somebody to get in. We have friends in the business. We were subjected to very high security. Do not make eye contact with these people … or make jokes about them being high … but that’s another story. In any case, if you’re a musician of any kind, this NAMM thing is like a million Guitar Centers, Grandmas and Music Go Rounds all rolled into one. I was like a kid in a candy store. Can I come up with any more tired cliches to describe it? I’ll get back to you. NAMM was enormous, and just an earsplitting cacophony of noise, really. It was absolutely jam-packed with LA’s finest poseurs, except in LA they’re not poser poseurs; they’re authentic poseurs. One lady was painted white and hardly anything else, claiming to be a space alien of some kind. Another guy looked just like Emperor Norton. Many guys looked like they could have
been Nikki Sixx, Duff McKagan or Rob Zombie; lots of vampires and women in leopard skin. Cloud technology is the next big thing, apparently. They had portable cloud units at NAMM that looked like switch boxes. I have no idea how they work. I found a booth for a company that makes stainless steel guitars. I still can’t get my head around that one. The guitars weighed a ton. Close by was a bass guitar the size of a ukulele with a sound that could blow down walls. The strings were weird, almost like rubber bands. Then there were these guys playing a wooden box. The sounds they got out of that thing were incredible. They’re called “Dube boxes.” We saw plenty of DJs and turntables, too. I picked up a bass that was made of wood so light that when I put it on, I actually lost weight. The vendors were a lot stingier with the free stuff this time, compared to the last time I was there 10 years ago. That was a little disappointing. Last time, they gave out free strings and drumsticks and other stuff — maybe even straps — and you could pick up any instrument and play it. This year, the most expensive guitars and basses — like Rickenbacker and Gretsch — had locks on them, so that mere mortals like me couldn’t smear their inferior DNA all over them, I guess. I walked up to a Duesenberg guitar — super high-end — and the guy goes, “Can I help you?” I asked him if I could play it. “No,” was his curt reply. “Well, then I ain’t buyin’,” I told him. Hell, for all he knew, I was a multimillionaire music producer. What a snob! It’s also good to know that quality radio programming still exists in Southern California. How I miss those classic radio stations like KLOS and the now defunct KMET. Good, old Rodney still has his own free-form music show on KROQ — but only for about one hour late on Sunday night. I had the pleasure of being on the plane with one of the actors from “Breaking Bad” on the way back to Albuquerque. I have no idea who he was, because I’ve never seen the show — God forbid — but some other passengers recognized him. He’s the tall, skinny, black-haired kid with the underbite. Someone said he plays “the son.” He seemed nice enough. A guy asked me to take a picture of them posing together. Exciting.

Former Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff wrote: “With you in spirit — those who perished, those who fought, those who build.” Time and daily routines have softened the communal grief as the workers carry on, trading jokes and gruff male banter. Some ends up in whimsical graffiti marking World Cup soccer matches, New York Giants Super Bowl victories and other lessweighty matters that have gone on
since construction began six years ago. One crudely drawn map of the neighborhood down below shows the location of a popular strip club. People on the ground below will never see the spontaneous private thoughts high in the Manhattan sky. The graffiti will disappear as the raw basic structure is covered with drywall, ceiling panels and paint for tenants moving into the 3 million square feet of office space by 2014. Knowing this, workers and visitors often take photographs of special bits of graffiti, so the words will live on.
THEATER REVIEW
Marshmallow melee slays play by Graham Gentz
culture@dailylobo.com How do you compensate for complete embarrassment? Why, with public humiliation, of course. Of other people, certainly. That is the service the Southwest Rural Theatre Project — somewhat shortened to “SWRTP” — provides with “Love Rides the Rails or Will the Mail Train Run Tonight?” The company’s fairly squalid space is nestled quaintly in the war zone, and it produces mainly manic melodramas for a cold, uncaring world. The program outright lies to you when it claims the show is a “fastpaced hilariously classic melodrama.” The show clocks in at the completely
unacceptable two-and-a-half-hour mark, with the half before intermission only making up an hour of that time. The phrase “hilariously classic” is bound to turn heads, as well. Is it supposed to be funny specifically because it’s traditional? Does that automatically make it funny? Is it so classic, it’s funny? There is, however, plenty to laugh at in LRTRoWTMTRT at SWRTP, albeit unintentionally. Lines are botched, entrances are missed, cues are dropped like crazy exes. The set changes are so mindbogglingly slow and clumsy, it truly becomes funny. The scenes are many, and usually quite short. Yet the complexity of moving so many
ugly backdrops at a semiconstant rate with long sticks was unnecessary and failed on every level. Once, because too much time had already been wasted, a backdrop was simply left in a heap at the top of the stage, and the next scene began. Audience participation is greatly encouraged, and this highly compensates for the drag of the play and general lack of interest. You’re asked to fawn audibly for the young heroine, cheer for the hero and boo violently at the villains while pelting them with marshmallows, which the theater joyously offers up in little sandwich bags. I was amused by the concept,

which I heard about before attending, and came prepared with the largest marshmallows I could find — about the size of baby skulls. But as the play dragged on and on, something dark and uncomfortable arose from the chaos. The booing seemed fun at first, but quickly lost its charm. The actors were allowed to throw marshmallows back if they caught them, sort of in the manner of dodgeball, though when they did, they came as malicious fastballs screaming violently into the audience. Soon, it was more of a snowball grudge match than a play. The actors clearly did not enjoy the interactions, as they were often hit in the face and had trouble getting out their lines. The French maid character even flipped the bird at one point, in a rather embarrassing lack of self-control. It gets old fast. It hardly matters what happens in the 150 minutes; anything can get old and tired after that long. But what was the play about? It’s really hard to say. Apparently, two gay men, spurned by society, attempt to destroy the train company of a small Western town. Simon Darkway, played by Chris Boros, manipulates events using Carmenstyle seductress Carlotta, played by Devony Wilhite, and his annoying crony, played by Robert Lee, who’s
a bit impossible to understand. It’s unclear why the scheming French maid is in the play, and the scenes between her and the crony are some of the most irritating and grating things imaginable. Darkway uses his seductress to break up the engagement of bright, pure, two-dimensional hero Truman Pendennis, played by Tito Dameron, and heroine Prudence Hopewell, played by Rona Wright. Carlotta’s only goal appears to be sex with Darkway, and after she does his bidding, she returns to him for her promised reward. Darkway, remembering that sex with women disgusts him, rejects Carlotta, failing to live up to his bargain. Carlotta then attempts to undo the damage she has done to the town. So the show claims to be a comedy of some kind, though really, that’s a bit debatable. Boros and Wilhite both exhibit fine comic timing, and they are easily the best in the show. Dameron, too, has a natural sense of the ridiculousness of his role and plays it well. The hero has a sidekick named Harold Stanfast, played by Logan Garvey. At first, Garvey’s inexperience and nervousness were clear, and seemed more distracting than anything else. Ultimately, his odd deliveries and awkward movement added such an unexpected timing to his lines that

he became one of the most enjoyable parts of the play. But the true saving grace of the play is the live music, played by Phyllis Sanchez on her keyboard. Her gently twinkling sounds drift through the scenes, giving them appropriate and necessary support while preventing too much boredom or too many aneurysms in audience members. Despite these glimmers of interest, they seem more like excuses than boons. The production lacks professionalism on every conceivable level. However, if you want to take part in a gladiatorial stoning, there are worse places to spend your time.
