Texas fertilizer plant explodes
Authorities picking up pieces, investigating details by Betsy Blaney and John L. Mone
The Associated Press WEST, Texas — An explosion at a fertilizer plant near Waco Wednesday night injured dozens of people and sent flames shooting high into the night sky, leaving the factory a smoldering ruin and causing major damage to surrounding buildings. The blast at West Fertilizer in West, a community about 20 miles north of Waco, happened shortly before 8 p.m. and could be heard as far away as Waxahachie, 45 miles to the north. There was no immediate word from officials about fatalities or the severity of the explosion, as Texas Gov. Rick Perry said state officials were also waiting for details about the extent of the damage. “We are monitoring developments and gathering information as details continue to emerge about this incident,” Perry said in a statement. “We have also mobilized state resources to help local authorities. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people
of West, and the first responders on the scene.” But aerial footage showed fires still smoldering in the ruins of the plant and in several surrounding buildings, and people being treated for injuries on the floodlit local football field, which had been turned into a staging area for emergency responders. Debby Marak told The Associated Press that when she finished teaching her religion class Wednesday night, she noticed a lot of smoke in the area across town near the plant, which is near a nursing home. She said she drove over to see what was happening, and that when she got there, two boys came running toward her screaming that the authorities ordered everyone out because the plant was going to explode. She said she drove about a block when the blast happened. “It was like being in a tornado,” Marak, 58, said by phone. “Stuff was flying everywhere. It blew out my windshield.” “It was like the whole earth shook.” She drove 10 blocks and

When they got to their home about 2 miles south of town, her husband told her what he’d seen: a huge fireball that rose like “a mushroom cloud.” More than two hours after the blast, there were still fires smoldering in what was left of the plant and in others burning nearby. The roof of what appeared to be a housing complex of some kind had collapsed. In
aerial footage from NBC’s Dallas-Fort Worth affiliate, KXAS, dozens of emergency vehicles could be seen amassed at the scene. Entry into West was slowgoing, as the roads were jammed with emergency vehicles rushing in to help out. Ambulances and several dozen injured people could be seen being taken away or seated in wheelchairs as they are treated and await transport. Department of Public Safety

Research front and center at event This year’s New Mexico Shared Knowledge Conference is trying to prove that students with nonscience majors can still pursue their own research. About 500 people from all over the state participated in the third such annual conference to hear about UNM students’ research in various fields. Talal Saint-Lot, program coordinator for the Graduate Resource Center, said 243 UNM students presented their work during the three-day conference, which started Tuesday and will finish this afternoon. He said the center planned the event to encourage more students to get involved in research-oriented work. “We know that UNM is a very high research institution but we don’t really know how much undergraduates have addressed research,” he said. “What we’re trying to do is let everybody know that everything is research, including creative work.” Other University bodies, such as
troopers were using their squad cars to transport those injured by the blast and fire at the plant Gayle Scarbrough, a spokeswoman for the department’s Waco office, told television station KWTX. She said six helicopters were also en route to help out. Glenn A. Robinson, the chief executive of Hillcrest Baptist Medical Center in Waco, told CNN that his hospital had

Aaron Sweet / Daily Lobo Ambar Calvillo speaks on Creating Social Change through Mentoring at the TEDxABQ Talks in the SUB on Wednesday. This was a segment of the third annual New Mexico Shared Knowledge Conference, which ends today. The Graduate Resource Center planned the event to encourage more students to get involved in research-oriented work. the Graduate and Professional Student Association, the Associated Students of UNM and El Centro de la Raza helped organize the event. Saint-Lot said that because the GRC has a Title V grant from the U.S. Department of Education, it is required to organize conferences. He said they started planning the event in November. Saint-Lot said the conference helps expose student work to organizations and companies outside UNM. He said the conference will also help improve student research by helping
students get feedback from researchers in other fields. “They’ll be exposed to similar concepts and ideas but probably in different terms,” he said. “In different fields, we have different vocabularies. Research is for everybody. Everybody does it, whether you know it or not.” During the conference, students gave paper talks, presented at poster sessions and ran film showcases to present their work. There was also a talk sponsored by TEDxABQ on Wednesday.

High above the floor of Frijoles Canyon sits one of the most popular sites at Bandelier National Monument. Accessible only by a series wooden ladders and steep stone steps, the kiva at the Alcove House site graces the edge of a niche some 14 stories above the canyon floor. For those daring enough to make the climb, the views are breathtaking. That’s why it was with much deliberation that park officials decided to close the site this week. Years of erosion and foot traffic by visitors have taken their toll and repairs are needed to preserve the site and make it safe again. “It’s a big deal for us to close it. We spent two full days just having discussions, reassessing and making the decision to close it because it’s such an important

How
to become a film extra
Now that Gov. Martinez signed a bill April 5 that increases tax credits for TV shows and movies filming in New Mexico, film-extra positions are in high demand. This bill adds to New Mexico’s attractiveness as a filming site. Popular shows such as “Breaking Bad,” along with large-budget films including “The Avengers” and “The Lone Ranger,” set be released July 3, have used the state for production in the past, and each of them required large numbers of background cast members. Interested in becoming a movie extra to gain experience in the film industry, or even to have a little extra cash? Below are steps listed to help you in your search for job as a movie extra.
Step 1
Take a head shot, a picture showing only your face, and then go to NMFilm.com. This website has information about film projects and the movie industry for New Mexico. Once you are there, click “Casting Calls” at the bottom of the page.
Step 2
There will be casting calls listed which you can click on to receive more information about the job. This may include the shooting schedule, the type of extra that they are interested in, how you can contact the interested party, and how much you will be paid, if at all. Some gigs just provide food and credit as compensation.
Step 3
According to eHow.com, if you are chosen as a movie extra, arrive on the set before your call time and be ready for a long day. Most movie extras work extensive hours that can be repetitive if you are doing the same job for a long time. Follow all instructions as precisely as you can while remaining upbeat.
Step 4
Once you have finished the job, you can create an acting résumé where you state type of work, the date, the director, and the release date of the project you just worked on. Having an acting résumé will help you land larger jobs further into your movie career. Becoming a film extra creates acting experience for hopeful college students, but beware of acting and casting call scams. If you arrive at the casting call and feel uncomfortable or unwilling to do the work, do not be afraid to say “no,” and do not agree to pay money — a typical sign that a casting call is a scam. ~ Katherine Luce

in educational leadership, said mentoring programs are a crucial aid to help students advance their research. “The reason why I think there’s so much value in teaching each other is that it helps us to see the kind of support that we have in our life,” she said. “We need to encourage our students to ask their professors, talk to them and ask them to mentor you.” Erin Watley, a doctoral candidate in the communication and journalism department, said that although she was not able to present her research during the conference, she still attended to benefit from its interdisciplinary atmosphere. “A lot of times, graduate students are pretty much in their different silos,” she said. “I wanted to take advantage for a lot of students from a lot of subject areas to come together.

Explosion thought that was something that’s really cool.” Watley said her department has been very helpful to her research, and she plans to present her work at next year’s conference. She said she encourages more professors and administrators to get student involved. “A lot of people from different areas are doing similar things, but they don’t necessarily know it because they haven’t gone outside their department,” Watley said, “It is important to make your research relevant to people outside your field.” Saint-Lot said the University would benefit from organizing more conferences such as this. “Conferences like this are exactly the type of thing that needs to happen more often,” he said. “That way, we’ll have a lot more students involved.”

The hospital has set up a hotline for families of the victims to get information, he said. Robinson did not immediately return messages from the AP. American Red Cross crews from across Texas were being sent to the site, the organization said. Red Cross spokeswoman Anita Foster said the group was working with emergency management officials in West to find a safe shelter for residents displaced from their homes. She said teams from Austin to Dallas and elsewhere are being sent to the community north of Waco.

A West Fire Department dispatcher said any casualties would be transported to hospitals in Waco, which is about 90 miles north of Austin. The explosion knocked out power to many area customers and could be heard and felt for miles around. Brad Smith, who lives in Waxahachie, told the station that he and his wife heard what sounded like a thunderclap. Lydia Zimmerman, told KWTX that she, her husband and daughter were in their garden in Bynum, 13 miles from West, when they heard multiple blasts. “It sounded like three bombs going off very close to us,” she said.

Information Center of the U.S. Geological Survey, said the explosion did not register on a seismograph because most of the blast’s energy dissipated in the atmosphere. In 2001, an explosion at a chemical plant killed 31 people and injured more than 2,000 in Toulouse, France. The blast occurred in a hangar containing 300 tons of ammonium nitrate, which can be used for both fertilizer and explosives. The explosion came 10 days after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in the U.S., and raised fears at the time it was linked. A 2006 report blamed the blast on negligence.

Officials at Bandelier National Monument have closed Alcove House, one of the park’s most popular sites due to concerns about its structural stability. site to Bandelier,� said Rod Torrez, the chief of interpretation. “It really is an icon of this park.� Alcove House was first reconstructed in 1910, before the area was designated as a national monument. The site was further stabilized in the 1930s and then became an emblem of the monument when the Works Progress Administration created a poster featuring the Alcove House kiva.
“It’s something that allows people to get in touch with and understand this place from a human perspective.� ~Rod Torrez chief of interpretation Monument officials had been planning to make some repairs at Alcove House, but when members of the park’s Vanishing Treasures team visited the site earlier this week as part of an assessment, they found the damage had become much worse. A network of cracks has developed in the masonry, some of the stonework has been dislodged and the kiva’s structure is being undercut. Officials say the kiva’s roof will have to be replaced, its walls shored up and any material that has washed away over the years will need to be replaced. “The problem is that the
expense of fixing it is going to be very high because getting the materials up to that site is a major task. It’s 140 feet off the canyon floor,� Torrez said. The work, which will require a system of cables and pulleys and possibly the help of a helicopter, is expected to start sometime this summer. Officials hope to get as much done as possible before being interrupted by the monsoon season and then winter. It could cost anywhere from $100,000 to $450,000 to repair Alcove House. Tucked into northern New Mexico’s ancient canyons, Bandelier has a long human history that stretches back more than 10,000 years. Aside from Native Americans, Spanish settlers and the Civilian Conservation Corp centuries later also left their mark on the area. The park drew more than 150,000 visitors last year. While Alcove House remains off-limits for now, the best view of the site is from a trail on the opposite mesa. Torrez said the goal is to find the funding, work out the technical challenges of working in such a location and get the work done so Alcove House can be opened as soon as possible. “We really want to keep it open,� he said. “Even the pueblos, they have expressed that they like the fact that visitors can go up there and see the site. It’s something that allows people to get in touch with and understand this place from a human perspective. That’s important to not only us and the visitors, it’s important to the people who come from this place. That site is special.�

From the web Online readers responded to the column “Shadowy global group a clear conspiracy,” published in Tuesday’s Daily Lobo. The column was about the annual meeting of the Bilderberg Group, which, as author Jason Darensburg described it, is when “the most powerful people in the world get together to meet in total secrecy to decide the fate of humanity.” By “Damian” “Wow Jason. Something that I somewhat agree with you on. Good job. I think that another very interesting meeting that also occurs is the meeting of Central Bankers around the world (sometimes with the so-called ‘private sector too’ such as Goldman Sachs). This is far more concerning to me because they control the money supply and all of our futures (investments and pensions).” By “phillip howel” “Jason you identify the members; they are all of the liberal left. The leading ‘journalists,’ leaders of industry, the shapers and implementers of policy are people you have identified. And what are their policies? Gates, gives tens of millions of $$ to Planned Parenthood but not a dime to any Right To Life organization. He supports population control with a focus on minority neighborhoods in this country and minority nations of Africa. Is it fair to suggest Gates has enough customers in the ‘western world’ that he does not see a need to allow the minority populations to grow? Henry Kissinger does not care one wit about human rights. Neither does Rockefeller or Bill Clinton. Ford, who knows. Taking at face value what you have written, the question becomes what ability do we have to interfere with what these people are doing? PS: Of course they stay at 5 star hotels and resorts. Who wants to stay in a roach motel?” By “Eugene” “Look at everyone agreeing with you here: right-wingers who believe in all of the paranoid conspiracies. That’s why they need to own guns — the guvment’s comin’ ta get you (in their black helicopters). Are these powerful, influential people? Sure — but I would hesitate to say they are secretly calling all the shots, including controlling the money supply (no surprise damian likes that one — you see, we had a wonderful, free-market economy with universal affluence before that damn Fed was created).” To join the conversation go to DailyLobo.com

Paul preached repentance, God’s grace
Paul explained the Crucifixion and Resurrection to gentiles
Editor’s note: This is in response to the letter “Judgemental Christians flout Christ’s teachings,” published in the Daily Lobo March 7.
by Bruce Kemmell
Daily Lobo guest columnist opinion@dailylobo.com Although I agree with Charles Crosson regarding the un-Christian behavior of those who condemn to hell the many who don’t agree with them, his teaching that only the life of Christ (including his Crucifixion and his Resurrection) and the teachings of Jesus to Second Temple Jews. Jesus magnified his messianic teaching by miracles and by acts of kindness, such as not condemning the woman taken in adultery. The Sermon on the Mount also revealed the will of God within the Torah, which the Pharisees had hidden behind their “tradition.” The Gospels are historical records and evangelical invitations, not pastoral/ doctrinal letters to “the body of Christ.” As Jesus plainly said in those Gospels, “He was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” This was the context until Jesus rose from the dead, having fulfilled everything regarding salvation. The proclamation of the advent of the kingdom promised to the Jews had to go to them first. The Jews represented the true and only God YHWH to the world at that time, as Jesus stated to the Samaritan woman, and which was spontaneously acknowledged by the Syro-Phoenician woman when she asked for healing for her daughter. The earthly ministry of Yeshua, Jesus, was only to Jews, with very rare exceptions. Had the hierarchy of Sadducees and Pharisees accepted Jesus as Messiah, and had they accepted that he, in fact, was the kingdom (“The kingdom of heaven is among you” is a better translation than the standard one), both the gentiles and the Jews would have avoided misery. However, the Book of Acts reveals that the message was not accepted even after Jesus’ ministry throughout the land, the Resurrection and the testimony of eyewitnesses to it. Stephen declared at his trial, before he was illegally stoned to death, that the hierarchy for centuries had rejected the Holy Spirit. Thus the whole Trinity was set aside by the leaders who
had the responsibility to receive the truth and to express it to the nation. The Old Testament ends here — not with Malachi and not with 2 Chronicles, as in the Tanach. Paul’s letters were to explain the meaning of the Crucifixion and Resurrection to gentiles, and to invite them into “the body of Christ” and into the kingdom of God, not into the kingdom given to the Jews. That the gentiles were to equally participate in messianic blessing was “a mystery” and was not part of standard Pharisaic expectation. It even took the apostles by surprise. The gentiles have not “replaced” the Jews. Jesus preached the gospel of the kingdom (which required repentance and water baptism, as proclaimed by John the Baptist). Paul preached the gospel of grace which inspired repentance and which brought the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Christianity among gentiles is that of Paul, which includes the applicable teachings of Christ, however much demented people carry signs of condemnation and distort the message of grace. Crosson is in error.
Christians as well as others have been led by such mixing and superficial matching into inconsistencies. Sadly, people mix, almost as in a blender, the teachings of Yeshua (Jesus), Cephas (Peter) and Shaul (Paul), and they season the brew with the Old Testament. These teachings were to several different audiences, and gentile Christians as well as others have been led by such mixing and superficial matching into inconsistencies. And now, there’s what is called Rabbinic Judaism, which is not a biblical faith. Without the Temple, there can be no animal sacrifice, and the rabbinic substitute for the New Testament, the Talmud, is not the word of YHWH. There are religions which use the figure of Jesus of Nazareth, but his function is utterly confused. The teachers have no concept of the depth of the love of God revealed in the sacrifice of Christ, and they do not understand its purpose. There is only one Messiah, and when he comes again,
he will judge fairly, according to what each person truly worshipped, whether that be the living God, tradition, mammon, political power, sex, science, the occult, a false god with a name or one’s self. Every human soul will exist forever; not every soul will live forever. It’s your choice what kind of existence yours will be. Please understand that I fully accept that the Jewish nation is God’s chosen. I’m not anti-Semitic. What gentiles have done, sometimes even in the name of Jesus Christ — the expulsions, the pogroms, the ghettos and the Holocaust — is abominable and criminal. (For those in doubt about the reality of the Holocaust, my uncle helped liberate Bergen-Belsen.) Surely, if anyone is condemned, it is he or she who, like the Nazis, has treated others with such murderous arrogance and inhuman unkindness. That is the teaching of both Paul and Christ. Paul specifically declares that the covenants and promises to the patriarchs are irrevocable, and many political and church leaders today are on the wrong side of God’s “red line.” It is also clear to me that the antiSemitism will bring what is commonly called Armageddon. (Strictly speaking, Har Megiddo is a mountain bordering the Valley of Jezreel, which is where many armies of the world will gather, after which they will march toward Jerusalem, the final scandalon. Even Napoleon understood this. God promises that such action will fail, even if he has to throw boulders from heaven.) What the Christian church has done, among other errors, is to cast out its Hebrew heritage and substitute for it Aristotelian and neo-Platonic philosophy. Galileo challenged Aristotle, not Scripture, which has a spherical Earth, a hydrological cycle, distinctions among species and a God who “stretches out the heavens” and keeps them in order using laws. By and large, this change of philosophical foundation also displaced the Holy Spirit, so that now we have new hierarchies and a gentile mindset. It will not last. What do you think the second coming is for? It is to establish the truth.

touching lives.” In the Smiths’ case, it changed theirs forever. The Smiths, who already have three children, first spotted Guan Ya less than a year ago when Niki Smith was looking at photos of hard to place orphans online, offering simple prayers for them one by one. With three children of her own, including a 3-year-old daughter adopted from China, she had no intention of adding to her family. Then she saw Guan Ya. “She was just our daughter,” said Smith of that chance Internet encounter nearly a year ago. “There was no doubt about it, from the first time we saw her on the Internet.” There were seemingly impossible obstacles to adopting the girl. Firstly, Guan Ya was months away from turning 14, the age at which Chinese law would make her ineligible for adoption. Not only could Guan Ya not speak English, she didn’t speak at all. Guan Ya is deaf. Undeterred, the Smiths scrambled through the paperwork and home studies that are inherent to international adoptions. With support from both Chinese and U.S. authorities, they expedited the bureaucracy by running a flurry of emails and forms through online translators. And

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. — You might use Google Translate to read a hard-to-find Manga comic book or to decipher an obscure recipe for authentic Polish blintzes. Or, like Phillip and Niki Smith in rural Mississippi, you could use it to rescue a Chinese orphan and fall in love at the same time. Google is now doing a record billion translations on any given day — as much text as you’d find in 1 million books — for everything from understanding school lunch menus to gathering national security intelligence. It translates in 65 languages, from Afrikaans to Yiddish, and can be used on websites, with speech recognition and as an app on mobile phones even if there is no connection. While the technology is exponentially evolving, Google’s translation guru Franz Och’s face lit up when he heard that the Smiths and their new daughter, 14-year-old Guan Ya, are settling into their new lives together this month communicating almost exclusively through Google Translate. “All day long I look at algorithms, algorithms and algorithms,” he said. “It is so rewarding to hear that it is

one day, Niki Smith received an email from her daughter-to-be, an unintelligible jumble of Chinese characters. “Well, I couldn’t begin to read this letter,” said Smith. That is where Google Translate came into play. Smith cut and pasted the letter into the empty rectangle for the program in her Internet browser and Guan Ya’s thoughts magically appeared. Thus began their heartwarming virtual conversation of love, family and life. “The computers and software are tools, but I have no doubt that these tools made our bonding so much easier,” said Niki Smith. Machine translation dates back to the end of World War II, when coders realized that cryptography and deciphering were, in part, math problems. In 1949, influential scientist Warren Weaver laid out a pivotal proposition that paved the way for today’s computational linguistics: A theorem could be developed to solve the logical structure of languages. Yet almost 65 years since Weaver wrote that “it seems likely that the problem of translation can be attacked successfully,” machine translation is far from perfect.

The results weren’t even close. For the machine-translated writings, “The quality was still below average, and the texts would require extensive post-editing for their function to be met,” they found. “The general public thinks you can stick anything into machine translation and it’s going to give you everything you need, but of course that’s not the case,” says Jamie Lucero, who heads the translation and interpretation program at Bellevue
College in Bellevue, Wash. He said for high quality translations, literature, marketing materials or complex syntax, a human translator is still essential. But machines are helpful, he said, “for people who just want to get a basic message across.” But any translation is a huge leap for communication, said Jennifer Uman, who co-authored a children’s picture book, “Jemmy Button,” with Italian collaborator Valerio Vidali, published this week.

Top Students watch as honeybees busily work on their comb, which UNM professor Monica Kowal brought from her personal hive. In Kowal’s class “Zen and the Art of Beekeeping” in the UNM Honors College, students learn how important honeybees are and how to properly care for them. Bottom A closeup of honeybees at work in a display provided by professor Monica Kowal. Kowal said “This is a critical time for honeybees,” since the use of widespread pesticides harms honey bees.
The Independent Student Voice of UNM since 1895
nyone who’s ever been stung by a bee would probably think twice before purposefully hanging out with a swarm of them. But in the “Zen and the Art of Beekeeping” class at the UNM Honors College, students meet every week to discuss their newfound passion for honeybees, hives and everything in between. The class, taught by Monica Kowal, focuses on what she describes as an ethnographic study of urban beekeeping. “We’re learning about this whole new culture. We study beekeepers and their whole way of life, and these ways of living and sustaining yourself off bees and honey,” said student Celestina Martinez. It’s not only about small, backyard hives, though. The class studies bees as part of larger economic and agricultural systems, and the problems the bees face. “Before this class I was just not aware — not even just about bees, but about GMOs, sustainable growing, how monoculture growing is the worst thing we could be doing because it depletes the land so thoroughly,” said student Brianne Clarkson. “These are things we hear about maybe once in high school and then never again.” Clarkson explained local “hobbyist” beekeepers intersect with global agricultural systems in the phenomenon of Colony Collapse Disorder. CCD is when an entire colony of bees leaves the hive one morning and disappears completely. It is thought to
be caused by a group of pesticides called neonicotinoids, which could be causing the bees to become so disoriented they are unable to find their way back to the hive. CCD has only affected commercial beekeepers so far, and has not appeared in New Mexico yet. “It affects the economy because when you don’t have the pollinators, you can’t grow any produce, so it’s a big problem,” student Elise Lopez said. Clarkson said the class has left her with a strong awareness that private, urban beekeeping might be the only solution if CCD continues to plague American commercial beekeepers, who she said lose 50 to 70 percent of their bees every time they pollinate. The class discussed how certain common foods, particularly almonds, could become impossible to cultivate in the near future unless more sustainable and bee-friendly growing practices are instituted. These practices could range from eliminating pesticides to planting more diverse crops in an area to provide bees with food. “There are so many people who don’t know about this, so we’re learning about how we can help people to become aware and how we can help the situation,” Lopez said. Kowal said she started the class not only because she likes bees, but to see if others were as concerned as she was. “This is a critical time for honeybees,” Kowal said. “I pitched this class because I’m passionate about it, but also as a gauge to see if students would be interested, and fortunately, they are. The fact that students are involved and excited about it is really inspiring to me.” Kowal and her husband have been keeping bees for seven years now. The number of hives in their backyard has grown from one startup hive to 10 thriving hives. She says in those seven years, she has watched the beekeeping population in New Mexico — and especially in Albuquerque — go through a renaissance. “When I first started going to New
Page

culture@dailylobo.com Mexico Beekeepers meetings, there were maybe 20 or 30 people, and now it’s grown to like 200 people,” she said. She noticed at those meetings there was a lack of young people around, which was her original motivation to start the class. She said the initial investment in beekeeping equipment might be a deterrent to young people interested in beekeeping. She was also concerned that many people who want to keep bees don’t realize how much education is necessary to keep colonies safe and healthy. “I really think it should be a free endeavor. I don’t think students should have to pay to learn a vocation or a skill,” Kowal said. “If I can get college students and then they can teach younger people, it can become this big pay-it-forward type of endeavor.” That forward-paying potential was realized when her students approached her about starting a beekeeping club on campus. Currently in the chartering stage, the Student Beekeepers Club hopes to share what knowledge it has acquired with other UNM students and the Albuquerque community. “We have a couple of different missions,” chartering member Jessica Gorley said, “One, of course, is to get bees safely on campus, and the other is to provide awareness to people. A lot of people don’t know about them or they’re scared, and we want to get rid of that fear by holding events about bees to give public knowledge. We’ve also talked about outreach with the public or to children in schools.” The title of the class is an indicator that the art of beekeeping could be about a lot more than botany and bee stings. “I never thought anyone could become attached to an insect, either emotionally or spiritually, but these people totally do,” said Clarkson. “It’s enlightening how (beekeepers’) lives were troubled or chaotic before, and then they started keeping bees and it gave them a sense of direction and calm.”

‘Less is more’ for The Lymbs Band members discuss their approach to making music by Justin Brough
culture@dailylobo.com After winning last week’s battle of the bands, members of The Lymbs began preparation for their show at this Saturday’s Fiestas, where they will be opening for Breathe Carolina and several other artists. The Daily Lobo spoke with the two-man outfit, which includes Gage Bickerstaff as vocalist/ guitarist and Jeff Bell on drums. We discussed their music, its messages and their plans for the future. Daily Lobo: What approach do you take when composing your music? Gage Bickerstaff: Our approach is trying to be part of something bigger than ourselves by creating something the people can relate to and respond to, and really become a part of culture. We want to represent what American culture is nowadays and be reflective so that we can change for the better. DL: Can you tell me about the music itself? GB: The music itself is based in the minimalist perspective: Less is more. If you have less elements, can you write a better song? That allows you to hear the pure soul of it. With a lot of artists, if you don’t believe them — you don’t immediately feel their energy or whatnot — it’s not effective. That’s what we want to be. We want to affect, we want to influence people in a good way. Jeff Bell: (Bickerstaff) does the songwriting and gets things going. And then I come in and add rhythm
Translation
and transition. We talk a lot about where a song can go once it’s started. It’s a conversation we have when writing the music because we want to compose a song that someone can listen to over and over again and feel a relation to it. DL: What themes and messages are present in your songs? GB: We want to promote social and political awareness, but we don’t want to represent anything that’s negative. Rock ‘n’ roll kind of has rebel tendencies, which is fine, but for the sake of change. And that is what our music is about. All the lyrics are always about something that we feel is a social aspect in American society that we feel needs to be talked about … or is a part of our lives or a part of the lives we see. DL: Is there any deeper meaning embedded in any of your music? GB: I don’t necessarily like to talk about what individual songs are about, because it goes along with the experience. So when people hear a song and think it’s about something and they relate to that, I don’t want to take that away from them by saying, ‘Well, this song is actually about this.’ I think a good song can be interpreted in lots of different ways. I rarely tell anybody what the songs are really about. DL: How do you feel your fans typically associate themselves with the music? JB: There’s two parts to it. The audience connects right away because they get immersed in our energy — the way we feel it — but then we pull the rug out from under them almost, and then it affects them even more. I like it when artists do that — and I’m
the one listening — that’s why I listen to music over and over again. Because I find something different every time. DL: How do you balance school and music and everything else? JB: We both work, but we’re trying to get support from as many outlets as possible. A lot of people have told us to start a Kickstarter, and we’re looking in to that. On the other hand, my mom’s trying to get us on the Ellen DeGeneres show. There’s so many ways that artists figure out how to make their art work for them. GB: That’s the goal right now … to get to where we can really just focus on this completely. We don’t want money to be an issue, but we don’t want to be millionaires or anything, either. We just want to live so that we can make art and write and do our thing. DL: What’s the reception been like so far? GB: It’s been oddly positive, really. We haven’t had any negative response … I’m sure it exists, we just don’t hear it or try not to hear it. We’ve even done some traveling — we’ve played Santa Fe here and there, and we went to San Diego and played there — and the response has been pretty good, so we feel confident that we’re doing something right.
catastrophic earthquake hit Haiti in 2010, they launched a buggy Haitian Creole translator that, despite glitches, was widely used by rescuers and relief workers. Last week in a supermarket in Rienzi, Miss., a mother and daughter hovered over an iPhone, passing it back and forth as they strolled the aisles, chatting about what they wanted to cook for dinner. It was just a few short weeks since they’d met in person, since Guan Ya had emailed her family-to-be: “No, I have never been shopping. You do not need to bring me anything. I do not know the things
I like. I guess I like chocolate. Have you come to China yet? I will not be afraid. I am very happy.” When they met, she told her parents that more than anything, she wants to hear. And already doctors in Mississippi are suggesting that hearing aids and possibly a surgically implanted cochlear implant may help. In those early emails, and on this day, the two typed back and forth the three English words, eight simple letters, and the three Chinese characters, a series of strokes and slashes, that mattered the most: “I love you!”

UNM talent burns bright at Words Afire! theater fest by Antonio Sanchez culture@dailylobo.com
After working at the University for 38 years, professor and interim dean of the College of Fine Arts James Linnell will ignite one last flame at this year’s annual Words Afire! Festival of New Plays. The annual play festival showcases the work of three graduate student playwrights and concludes with a dramatic reading of Linnell’s poetry collection, “The Menu.” Linnell, who is retiring at the end of this semester, helped create the festival in 2000, when he was chairman of the Department of Theatre & Dance. He said the festival was created as part of his efforts to build a master’s degree in dramatic writing. Linnell said each play in this year’s festival was morphed and worked on in his playwriting class in the fall. “These were all my children, so to speak, that are finally getting to walk in the festival, so I’m very excited to see them all on their feet and see what’s
happened with the work that the students were able to do working with the director and the actors,” Linnell said. Student actress Amy Bourque performs in this year’s festival, playing the role of Ariel in “The Invasive Kind,” a play about a girl dealing with the death of her mother. Bourque has been involved in the festival for the past five years doing technical work, but this is the first year she acted in one of the plays. Bourque, who graduates this semester, said the festival offers the rare opportunity for actors to work alongside playwrights. “You just learn to be flexible because they’re seeing their work evolve and they’re seeing it on stage and saying, ‘Oh, that looked better on paper, but it doesn’t look very well when spoke aloud,’” Bourque said. “So every few days, we would get rewrites, and whether it be an entire scene or a few lines, you have to be able to go with the flow.” Linnell said the festival has transformed from a broader festival to a smaller collection of works, but it has remained a place for student actors and playwrights to inspire one another. “It’s a huge difference that
happens for writers when they get to see their work on its feet, to see the actors using the language,” Linnell said. “Seeing the directors and how they shape their work, it’s like a revelation for the actors. It opens up whole new doors for them on how to develop a play.”
“Seeing the directors and how they shape their work, it’s like a revelation for the actors. It opens up whole new doors for them on how to develop a play.” ~James Linnell professor Freshman student actor Grey Blanco performs in “Disposable Boys,” a play that portrays a family consisting of an abusive father and his two children. Blanco said the festival’s hands-on approach to theater has inspired him to pursue playwriting. “I definitely got some awesome insight to a playwright’s process, which is the first time I’ve ever been in something like
that before, so that’s been a real gift,” Blanco said. “I want to see and dive into some of my own works someday. I never have seen the playwright’s process, and now I’ve got a taste of it, and that’s another aspect of theater I’ve never explored before.” Linnell said he wrote his poetry collection “The Menu” in two years, beginning his work after a family Thanksgiving trip in 1997. The local Tricklock Theatre
Company will perform the collection of poetry, and the event is choreographed by retired professor Jennifer Predock-Linnell, Linnell’s wife. Linnell said he’s excited to retire while working alongside his wife, but he said he’ll miss working at the University. “Once you step out of that river, it goes on without you, and I’ll miss it,” he said.
