Petition: We deserve a raise VP hopeful touts wide experience Candidate has worked with Feds, business and higher ed by John Tyczkowski news@dailylobo.com
Aaron Sweet / Daily Lobo UNM criminology junior Sean Overlin cleans up in the SUB Monday afternoon. Overlin is a student manager at the SUB and has been working there for more than a year. “It’s a good job,” Overlin says. “I can work my way to student building manager from here.” The UNM Labor Coalition submitted a petition to the governor last week for higher salaries and wages at UNM, and it had more than 1,000 signatures
UNM workers ask Guv for overdue pay hike by Rebecca Gonzales news@dailylobo.com
Richard Martinez has been on UNM’s custodial staff for seven years and has only seen a pay raise once. “I am not real happy,” Martinez said. “I wish they’d change their minds about raising wages. Prices go up and we’re not making the money to pay our bills.” The UNM Labor Coalition drafted a petition signed by more than 1,000 students, staff and faculty members that speaks to the pay issue at UNM. The petition, which calls for a raise in all UNM employee salaries and a living wage for hourly labor, was delivered to Gov. Susana Martinez last week, said Doris Williams, a spokeswoman for the coalition. A living wage is not a specific number, but a wage that allows employees to live above the poverty line. Other elements of the petition include a cost-of-living increase, a clause to honor commitments to retirees and a clause to keep tuition affordable via grants and the Lottery Scholarship. Susan Velasquez, director of constituent services at the office of the governor, said the governor received the petition but was already giving attention to legislative bills that addressed the same issues. Among these is the state budget bill, which calls for a 1 percent pay increase for all state workers; a bill that adjusts public employee retirement benefits in accordance

with the cost-of-living index; and a bill raising the statewide minimum wage. Martinez has said she opposes the minimum wage bill, but has not vetoed it yet. Kayla Russo, a student employee who works in the Student Union Building, said she has been involved with UNM for several years. She remembered signing and supporting a similar petition last year, but has not seen results of that effort. “I have been at UNM for five years and my sister was here two years before that,” Russo said. “After seven years of UNM politics, I feel like it won’t pass.”
“We have not had a raise in four or five years, and in that time, parking, insurance costs, everything has gone up.” ~Judy Hansen librarian and copyright permission specialist Judy Hansen, a librarian and copyright permission specialist for the Fine Arts and Design Library, said she is not very optimistic about the petition. “We may be looking at another couple of hard years,” Hansen said. But she agreed that a pay raise is warranted.
“We have not had a raise in four or five years, and in that time, parking, insurance costs, everything has gone up,” Hansen said. “I like my job and I am grateful for it, but I haven’t had a raise in a long time.” Gordon Hodge, an associate professor of psychology, said a number of roadblocks stand in the way of receiving more funding for employee salaries. “We want to do a lot of things for a lot of people,” Hodge said. “But there doesn’t seem to be sufficient funds. I don’t know where the state would get the money. Some other part would have to lose money.” Hodge also said he felt a petition signed by only those with close ties to UNM may not be as compelling as one signed by a broader base of people, such as other citizens of the city or state. UNM regent Jack Fortner agreed with faculty and staff about the necessity of pay raises. “They deserve their wages,” Fortner said. “State workers are getting a 1 percent pay raise and I think that should be at least the starting point for UNM employees. The reason that UNM is such a good university is we have good professors. If we don’t give them raises, they’re going to go somewhere else.” Fortner said the regents are making higher wages for employees a priority, but funds are an issue. “If the money was there, I’d say ‘absolutely,’” Fortner said. “It is kind of early to tell. I hope we can do enough to keep (employees) satisfied.”

UNM’s latest candidate for a VP of research and economic development brings experience about how departments can weather sequestration cuts. Richard Billo is the second candidate for the position and spoke at an open forum Thursday. The VP position has been open since June when then-Vice President Julia Fulghum stepped down. An interim vice president, John T. McGraw, has served while the search for a permanent replacement continues. According to the job description available at VPRsearch.unm. edu, the VP for research and economic development is in charge of expanding externally funded research at UNM; promoting interdisciplinary collaboration and collaboration with other research institutions; and assisting faculty in expanding their research role at UNM. According to the salary book available on the UNM Sunshine portal, McGraw makes $145,000 per year. Billo, current interim associate VP for research for the University of Texas at Arlington, said he was the right person for the job because of his experience in the academic world, the corporate world and research for the federal government. His first job was working for Intel, where he managed three departments in Barbados, Puerto Rico and Santa Cruz, Calif. With Intel, he said he learned how to work with and for high-tech companies. After earning his doctorate in industrial engineering at Arizona State University and working at a research center there, Billo worked at Pacific Northwest National Laboratories and formed relationships with the departments of defense and energy. After two years, Billo moved to the University of Pittsburgh where he worked in corporate research and diversity and learned to work with nontechnology companies. “Some of these places had dirt floors where they would pour oil to keep the dust down,” Billo said. “It was a very different culture than the clean rooms I was used to.” Next, Billo worked at Oregon State University and leveraged his industry connections with Intel for fundraising. Finally, he came to UT Arlington, where he started as associate dean for research in the college of engineering. Billo said his varied experience contributed to his collaborative approach to fostering research. He cited an engineering project at UT Arlington that involved chemicals, which he said “engineers really
aren’t used to.” The engineering department wanted to build a new lab in its facilities, but Billo instead let the chemistry department host the project. “I don’t care about department boundaries or territories,” Billo said. “It’s not important to me. We’re all here to do research.” As the interim associate VP of research at UT Arlington, Billo said he acquired an appreciation for arts and humanities as well as science and engineering programs. “Universities are not just about dollars and cents, about big research projects,” Billo said. “Department performance in the arts and humanities is measured much differently.” Billo took questions about how he’s dealt with the federal sequestration cuts and securing enough funding for research projects and how he could do the same at UNM. Billo said he visited agencies, such as the National Science Foundation, in person, along with faculty, to more effectively lobby for funding. “Doing that shows you have a commitment to your faculty and shows that what they’re doing is important to the university,” Billo said. He said he encouraged faculty to spend a year working with the NSF and similar agencies to understand their organizational culture. Working with these organizations would also give faculty an opportunity to network and therefore increase chances of receiving needed funds. “You have to get to know who you’re working with and they have to get to know who they’re funding and their priorities,” Billo said. Billo said he encouraged departments to work with retired state and federal employees who have experience in their respective fields, because those employees understand best how government processes work. Overall, Billo said he wanted to bring a new approach to UNM in terms of safeguarding its research funding during the sequestration cuts. “You can’t just keep on doing the same things you’ve always done for your department funding,” Billo said. “You need to be much more proactive these days.”

Jeffrey Knockel
Grad student probes Chinese Skype censorship by Antonio Sanchez news@dailylobo.com
UNM graduate student Jeffrey Knockel has a penchant for solving difficult homework assignments. In high school, he programmed his TI-83 calculator to do his calculus homework. And in 2011, he was tasked with finding out how China is using Skype to spy on its citizens. When citizens in China attempt to download or use Skype, they are redirected to a product called TOM-Skype. While the programs are similar, Chinese online servers can survey and censor messages through TOM-Skype. Knockel, who is working on his doctorate in computer science, began by downloading TOM-Skype and searching for the most common word leading to Chinese surveillance: the f-bomb. “We knew that the ‘f-word,’ fuck, was on this list, so we did MARCH 16, 2011 something called binary search to find out which line on this list of encrypted words was fuck,” Knockel said. “We delete half of this list and see if this still triggers surveillance messages based on that word. If it does, it must have been in the other half, if it doesn’t, it’s in this half.” After he narrowed down the encryption for the obscenity, Knockel said he was able to play around with the given text,
substituting his original word with “duck.” “I was very pleased, once I decrypted this one word, I was able to decrypt this whole list of words and there were some startling words on there,” Knockel said. Knockel finished his original list in three days, turning in his assignment to assistant professor Jedidiah Crandall. Since then, Crandall has worked with Knockel as he discovers new words with each TOM-Skype update. Knockel has composed a list of more than 4,000 words and phrases, ranging from “cell phone eavesdropping software” and “police used electric batons” to “sex chat” and “two girls one cup.” Crandall said Knockel’s work stands out from that of other computer science students in the department. “In computer science, we tend to think there are systems people that can get really deep into the computer and understand, and then there’s theory people. He can hang out with the theory people and rival any of them in theory and he can hang out with the systems people and rival any of them in systems,” Crandall said. Crandall, who teaches computer networking and introduction to cyber security, said Knockel’s work is part of a major larger movement against online censorship.

Letter Men can be victims of domestic violence, too Editor’s note: This is in response to the article “Lecturer: Men can end violence against women,” published in Monday’s Daily Lobo. The article was about a talk given by Ted Bunch, co-founder of the organization A Call To Men, which is part of a UN initiative committed to ending violence against women around the world. In the talk, Bunch said men are socially conditioned to view women as inferior and that we can change this attitude toward women. Editor, I was shocked to see an egregiously sexist headline in the Daily Lobo today. I did not attend Ted Bunch’s lecture, but I must say the snippet posted as the headline for the article was abhorrent. Imagine a similar headline: “Minorities can end theft.” It’s a sad stereotype that ethnic minorities — be they Italian, Irish, Mexican, African-American or otherwise — are often labeled as criminals. The outrage that would stem from an anticrime speaker encouraging an end to property crime by saying something that targets a group of people because of a stereotype would be enormous, and rightfully so. This headline and this lecturer present men as the cause of violence against women. A study led by Daniel Whitaker of the University of Georgia found that in the United States, violence was reciprocal in fully half of relationships with domestic violence. In the relationships without reciprocated violence, women were the perpetrators nearly 70 percent of the time. Domestic violence is not a male-versus-female issue, and presenting men as both the problem and the solution to domestic violence is immensely sexist. Both women and men are capable of perpetrating partner violence and an effective solution to this problem is for both genders to work together to end it. Human beings can end domestic violence, not one gender or the other. Paul Hunt UNM student

Column
Twilight of the dogs — and Kindilien by Peter Kindilien
Daily Lobo columnist opinion@dailylobo.com Awakening on my final day, I ascend the steps of my underground bunker, which serves as a pseudo bomb shelter, into the morning sun, atop Nine Mile Hill. In the evening, the Sandia Mountains and the star-speckled sky provide a peaceful backdrop for the counterpoint of small arms fire echoing from the city and the sporadic fireworks when yet another quiet suburban meth lab is sabotaged by the competition. Legalization has apparently not appeased those who remain averse to the higher prices which invariably accompany regulation. I don my blue hat with the “No Fear” logo boldly embroidered across the front and toss some scraps to Hope and Armageddon, my two mastiffs. We fly on down the hill, the dogs hitched behind me in their cart, squinting and slobbering into the wind. Both are too stupid to turn away from the dirt being kicked up behind me by the spinning wheel of the unicycle — I am frugal to a fault. Sunrise, and it is 115 degrees Fahrenheit. The heat from the road is enough to deep fry any living creature on this typical winter day. We whisk past the newest addition to the city: a factory for hood-mounted rocket propelled grenade launchers, the latest in auto accessories. Descending toward the modern, barbaric chaos of Albuquerque, I grin with the knowledge that I am making this daily commute for the last time. Our eyes burn as we glide through the haze near the chemical plant, a manufacturer of the food substitute that has become the basis for the meals served by the remaining restaurants in town and for the “edible” products still being packaged by local grocery chains. I notice the pedestrian walkway over the mighty Rio Grande has been blown up again — no doubt easy pickings for middle school dropouts on their nightly pursuit of fun and diversionary destruction. Crossing the river by foot, I nod to the ducks in the deepest channel as they luxuriously cool their ankles in the inch-deep ooze of foamy toxic waste. We proceed under the 48-lane highway, which I note is a parking lot today, due to a geriatric variation on the blitzkrieg. A million doddering old men simultaneously mainline
cocktails of Geritol and Viagra suspended in power drinks and aim their mobile motels toward the Duke City. They drive at exhilarating speeds, typically reaching up to 45 mph under the posted limits. They converge here for the annual Hot Air Balloon/Surface-To-Air Missile Event, which boasts family entertainment and outdoor recreation combined with a public display of ballistic marksmanship. Given that competitors who score a bull’s-eye will be exempt from the requirement to ever take another driving test, it is always a huge draw with the older crowd, and it provides temporary relief for those still embittered about the outcome of the last five or six world wars. I should note that we’ve had less congestion and accidents since the addition of drunk and impaired-driving lanes, which weave safely between the other lanes and sometimes cross in front of oncoming traffic, through holographs of telephone poles and street lamps, across yards and down the hallways of abandoned homes. The social conscience of civic leaders has been appeased, and with the drive-thru narcotics dispensaries providing a flourishing source of city revenue, everyone has been pleased with the results — even Mothers Against Drunk Driving. Arriving on campus for the big event, I secure our vehicle of conveyance to a nearby guillotine and implore my foolish beasts to guard it well. My brief retirement party is as boring as one might expect, given that the governor has been forced to declare us bankrupt yet again — the University’s coffers drained by a new set of corruption scandals, which this time involved a failed SeaWorld venture and what had once promised to be a potentially lucrative chain of outdoor ice hockey stadiums. We share a rare thimble of water, and with a handshake and the promise to do lunch in the indefinite future, I toss my useless pension IOU into the trash and exit the room. At that moment, the latest department hire, my successor, whose salary is twice mine — compensation for the disadvantage of youth and inexperience — enters the building. The reverse draft this creates causes the room’s door to rudely slam behind me, inflicting a welt down my back as though I had just been flogged. Outside, I find neither the unicycle nor the bodies of the dogs. Only Armageddon’s head remains — a sign of the times, I suppose. They aren’t the first canines to fall victim to the black
market, and they can easily be replaced by the puppies my neighbor breeds for his heavymachine-gun moving-target range. But I picture Hope being devoured at the underground Pooch-fil-A by poor, carnivorous college students with greasy fingers, as I remove the leash from what remains of my dog of war. Embarking on the long trudge uphill toward my humble domicile, unencumbered by the weight of my stolen possessions, I soon encounter a roadblock, the taped-off scene of yet another shooting. The fourth grade students from a class in the local militia enclave, led by a “rogue” teacher, surprised a group of protesters who had been demanding an end to the recent placement of ammunition vending machines in school cafeterias. The students’ successful flanking attack has left in its wake a trail of carnage several blocks wide. Homeland Security tanks have cordoned off a swath of the city, and a dozen of the police department’s urban-assault helicopters circle the escape routes, searching for the miscreants, who are all identifiable by a tattoo on their foreheads proclaiming “Intolerance Will Set You Free.” Circumventing this impediment, I cautiously work my way through a lower-end neighborhood which was recently “cleared out” by a controlled burn. Little remains beyond ashes and a few partial walls, yet I suffer the sensation that ghosts lurk in the shadows and that the rats, which may have devoured the last inhabitants, eye my intrusion with ravenous curiosity. As I climb out of the valley, I am hit headon by a wall of sand of Dust Bowl proportions. I crawl to a nearby abandoned barn where, hours later, I dig my way out of a foot-thick layer of newly displaced desert that is smothering and suffocating me. Stepping away from the collapsing structure, I gaze up at the sky and take a final breath. Late in the evening, raising the bed covers in their over-refrigerated mansion, the police commissioner turns to the mayor with a wink and conspiratorial smile, and whispers gratitude for the newly provided flotilla of drones that has successfully taken out the last of today’s band of juvenile urban terrorists. The late night news displays an image of what is proclaimed to be the only remaining evidence — the torn scrap of a blue baseball cap with tattered stitching of just one word: “Fear.”

‘Venus’ exposes physically, mentally Sexy duo strips down, baring skin and psyches by Graham Gentz
culture@dailylobo.com This is not your daddy’s theater. Bondage, dominance, submission and sadomasochism are the top layer of David Ives’ “Venus in Fur,” presented at the Aux Dog Theatre. But the play is wittier than that. Power, gender, identity and even a little Greekstyle hubris get thrown on the table and filleted into a titillating intercourse. Ives has been around for awhile, but “Venus in Fur” is a new work, first performed in 2010. Structurally, the play is downright clever. A play within a play is put to excellent use, and the levels of reality and truth will keep you engaged and guessing right to the end. The best part about the ending is that it has a hell of a payoff. There is some downright, all-out, sexy madness in this production, but it is by no means
exploitative or excessive. There isn’t pointless humping or titty waving. It gets under your skin and sticks with you when you leave. “Venus in Fur” is a two-person show with one man, Brennan Foster, and one woman, Sheridan Johnson. The script asks for a lot from the actors, and their undertaking and commitment is brave. There’s not much to the set, beyond the strange gray color to everything and a psychoanalysis couch used for a subtle joke. With no intermission and both actors constantly onstage, it is the actors’ performances that bring the production front, center and screaming into the audience. Johnson is hilarious. The script is clever and has many fine jokes, but Johnson sells them so well and so often. She also happens to be animatedly dashing around the stage in sexual and remarkably revealing attire for most of the play. Sometimes this is for the sake of humor, but other times Johnson exudes sex and power. She is terrifying, arousing and completely engrossing. Foster becomes as emotionally

Three UNM students were sick of analyzing graphs, watching PowerPoint presentations and reading scientific papers last semester. So instead, they decided to visualize scientific data through dance. “With the dance, it’s visual … for people who learn by seeing,” said biology and dance student Sarah Hogland. “And it’s kinesthetic as well, for people who learn by moving and doing. I feel like it could be a really great tool for learning about scientific processes that kind of tend to go over people’s heads.” Hogland, Elliott Miller and Louie Roccato were first exposed to dance and theater arts combined with biology in an ecology class last semester, in which the teacher asked students to perform skits to remember information. “It’s funny because that’s the information that I still remember,” Hogland said. “Moving and using muscle intelligences solidified this information much more than studying notes. I had always thought it would be cool to integrate the two, but that was the first time I felt like it was OK and people would be interested in something like that.” The students learned about a data visualization competition based in Canada and decided to independently start a dance and biology data visualization project to submit to the

competition. They read about UNM researchers online and chose to replicate the foraging patterns of ants, which doctoral candidate Tatiana Paz Flanagan is researching.
“Moving and using muscle intelligences solidified this information much more than studying notes. ~Sarah Hogland biology and dance student “I’ve definitely gotten a lot of blank stares originally and then people will say, ‘So you’re just going to walk around like an ant?’ No, not quite,” Hogland said. “Most people think biology and dance are completely different areas, so I think they’re just very curious about what the project looks like because I don’t think they can imagine it by themselves.” Miller said he and the other two students worked with Flanagan, who had computer simulations of the ants’ patterns, to learn more about the subject. They then came up with choreography. “You kind of have to make each piece of choreography — which in this case is each a piece of the different foraging patterns — you have
are physically removed and examined closely while being prodded around and coerced into movement. It’s claustrophobic like a petri dish, but expansive too, allowing for the audience to be pulled in. Although this is not your daddy’s theater, it probably wouldn’t mind if you called it “daddy.”

presentation of “sex as a play thing” seems to fall in line with the BDSM theme, in actualization it is much more than that.

to make each one a probability, like you’re going to have an X percent chance of getting this choreography … so it’s like setting rules to this freeform dance,” Miller said. Miller only started dancing oneand-a-half years ago when he had to take ballroom dancing for a physical education requirement. He said he fell in love immediately, and although the other dancers in the project have more experience, he is still participating. “I’ve got the biological side covered pretty well, but when it comes to the dance side, I don’t think I could do it alone,” Miller said. Hogland said the academic scientific community does not typically use creative techniques for learning. “I feel like there’s this weird, jaded perspective on academia, and especially in sciences, everything has to be very logical, very rational, even if you’re dealing with these complex systems that are beautiful — like they create fractals, for God’s sake,” Hogland said. “I think the sciences lose sight of this humanistic quality that you can use to supplement learning.”
