‘Team You for ASUNM’ dominates elections

by Chloe Henson

assistant-news@dailylobo.com @ChloeHenson5 The “Team You for ASUNM” slate dominated Wednesday’s elections for the Associated Students of the University of New Mexico senate.

Eight of the 10 senators who were elected for a full senatorial term ran with Team You. Lyndsay Stapleton, who also ran with Team You, picked up a half term.

Sen. Rachel Williams and Sen. Grace Liu, both incumbents, were the only members of the “Aspire for ASUNM” slate elected.

Sen.-elect Kaitlyn Loafman, a sophomore majoring in elementary education, earned 730 votes out of the 1,705 cast, the highest of the 22 candidates.

Loafman said she was ecstatic to be elected.

“I don’t know how to even describe it,” she said. “I’m in shock, and I feel so blessed and thankful … It’s amazing.”

Now that she has been elected, Loafman said she is ready to take on her work as a senator.

“I just look forward to working with everybody and working for ASUNM and making a difference and helping students on campus,” she said.

Loafman said the support she has from family and friends

contributed to her victory.

“I had a lot of support through all my friends that I have on campus and my sisters,” she said. “My slate is great. We worked hard and we never gave up.”

Loafman said she is grateful for the student body for helping her win a seat in the senate.

“I’m so glad for everyone that voted, and I hope that I can help you guys in every single way,” she said. “Thank you so much.”

Williams, who earned 677 votes, the most of any Aspire candidate, said the election results were a reflection of the slate’s campaign.

“It’s really a testament to campaign day,” she said. “It really is how well you can get out there and campaign. Aspire for ASUNM maybe didn’t campaign as hard as the other slate, and so I think that’s what we’re seeing today.”

Williams was first elected to the senate in the fall semester of last year.

She served as chair of ASUNM’s Finance Committee.

Williams said that for her next term as senator, she plans on continuing the projects she worked on during her last term.

“I’ll be applying for finance chair next semester and really pushing what I’ve already been working on, like transparency,” she said.

Though most of the Aspire candidates did not get elected, Williams said she will continue

Voter turnout way up this cycle

by Ardee Napolitano news@dailylobo.com @ArdeeTheJourno

Wednesday’s voter turnout for the Associated Students of the University of New Mexico senate election broke records.

According to data from ASUNM’s Elections Commission, 1,705 students cast their ballots in this semester’s elections. This is the highest number of voter turnout of any fall-semester election since 2005.

Voter turnout amounted to 1,433 students during the fall 2011 elections. The number dipped during last fall’s elections, when 1,058 students showed up to vote.

ASUNM Elections Commission Executive Director Malika Ladha said the eight-year high was due to the strenuous efforts and the campaign strategies of the 22 candidates who ran for senate seats this semester.

“The candidates that we had in this election were really great,” she said. “It honestly comes down to how

“I want to continue working with Aspire for ASUNM because they have really great ideas,” she said. “So I’ll keep collaborating with them. Even though they didn’t

get elected, we’ll still be working as a team.”

Williams said she wasn’t sure if Aspire would run again in the spring’s ASUNM presidential elections.

“I can’t speak for all of them,” she said. “But they’re all really outstanding individuals. I really hope that they do. And I expect them to stay involved in ASUNM. And I’m sure they will.”

*Incumbent hard they work on the day of elections and how hard they work prior to elections … It’s about how long you stay out there from eight in the morning until seven at night. They were there until the last minute.”

Ladha said she also attributes a “very tiny” part of this election cycle’s success to ASUNM agencies’ outreach efforts and social media presence.

ASUNM President Isaac Romero said that because there were two slates and two independent candidates who ran for office, this semester’s campaign became “very competitive, which drives elections and drives votes.”

He also commends the Elections Commission for the high turnout.

Romero said the high turnout reflects UNM students’ increasing involvement with campus affairs.

“It makes me excited because more and more people are getting involved in it,” he said. “More people are learning what to get involved in and how. So, I think it can only go up from here. That’s how I’d like to see it.”

And student involvement is largely beneficial for UNM, Romero said.

“Student involvement is crucial to the University,” he said. “Student involvement is what drives me … to represent students because we have our opinions of what we would like to see, but often, we need to hear from students about what they want to see and how we can address their concerns.”

Romero said he expects reelected incumbents to aid newcomers in the ASUNM senate. He said he also commends the energy of the first-time senators and that he is optimistic that the new sena-

torial line up will get things done.

Ladha said that although the turnout was not a majority of UNM students, she is glad about it.

“Is the election turnout where we want it to be? No,” she said.

“Are we in the right direction? Of course … I think it’s not where we want it to be, but can we do better in the spring? Of course we can.”

And she said she is optimistic that student voter turnout would increase in subsequent election cycles. She said her commission will especially work on increasing turnout for the spring’s ASUNM presidential elections.

“We’re going to do better than that,” she said. “We’re going to crush this. We’re going to get everyone riled up.”

Nobody hurt when ‘boxfuls of junk’ catch fire

by Ardee Napolitano news@dailylobo.com @ArdeeTheJourno

Despite a fire in the old Education Building, applied math senior Sarah Black’s Linguistics 303 class was not immediately cancelled Monday morning.

“I was coming from a previous class and was coming towards the education building,” she said. “I saw a bunch of my classmates outside the classroom. Everyone was talking. ‘Oh there’s a fire,’ they said, so we were just trying to get the fire extinguisher.

I smelled a lot of smoke. Then I sort of just went to the classroom and sat down.”

UNM’s Police Department

volume 118

and the State Fire Marshall’s Office are investigating the incident in the old Education Building, now known as Travelstead Hall.

The incident happened at about 11 a.m. that day.

Black said her class was on the first floor of the building.

Upon confirming from authorities that there was a small blaze on the second floor, her professor deemed the incident a “safety hazard” and cancelled the class, she said.

“It didn’t seem to be that big of a fire,” she said. “The fire truck showed up. It wasn’t that bad.”

UNMPD public information officer Lt. Tim Stump said the fire happened in rooms 201 and 202 of the building, which housed

cardboard boxes containing “boxfuls of junk.” He said they are still investigating how the fire started.

The rooms, which serve as storage space for the facility, were supposed to be locked, Stump said. But he said that they weren’t that day. “(The rooms) were supposed to be secured,” he said. “But for some reason, they weren’t.”

University Fire Marshal Andrew Chavez said that although the incident is still under investigation, it seems more like arson than an accident.

“From where the fire originated, it seems like there were no utilities involved,” he said. “They’re basically Copy Chief Aaron Wiltse Culture Editor Jyllian Roach Sports Editor Thomas Romero-Salas Assistant Sports Editor J.

investigating it. It seems like it has been human-caused.”

Chavez said authorities have not identified any possible suspect, though. He declined to provide further information about the investigation.

Chavez said the people in the building were immediately evacuated as soon as they were able to confirm that there was a fire inside.

Stump said the Albuquerque Fire Department was able to eradicate the fire quickly. He said the incident did not injure anybody and did not damage the facility.

And he thanks the students for preventing the spread of the fire, he said.

“(UNMPD officers) got there, and students were moving boxes out because the fire might be able to spread,” he said. “The officers evacuated everybody. The fire department showed up and put the fire out.”

This was not the first incident of a possible arson on campus, Stump said. He said UNMPD tried to catch an arsonist two years ago who set bulletin boards around campus on fire.

Chavez said Travelstead Hall meets the national fire prevention requirements for buildings despite being an old building. He said there are multiple fire alarm stations inside the building, which are monitored by UNMPD.

No. of sens stays the same Lobby Open 24 Hours! assistant-news@dailylobo.com @ChloeHenson5

A proposed Associated Students of the University of New Mexico constitutional amendment to expand the number of senators from 20 to 24 failed to pass Wednesday night.

ASUNM Sen. Earl Shank, who co-wrote Amendment One, said the amendment aimed to increase representation for students.

“The underlying thing is we wanted to increase representation for all groups of students in the senate,” he said. “We saw that easily, certain segments of the population of students at the University are potentially overrepresented, and others aren’t.”

ASUNM Vice President

Fire

Brandon Meyers said he co-wrote the bill because of concerns that the senate did not effectively represent students.

“We pretty much hear across the board that we aren’t reaching out to our students effectively, that we’re not doing effective outreach, that it’s always the same people who are in student government,” he said. “It just seems that no matter what we’ve done in the past, it wasn’t working.”

Shank said he and Meyers wanted to increase the number of senators to 24 because it would be difficult to measure the effects of just one additional senator each semester. He said 24 senators would have also divided evenly into ASUNM’s three standing committees and

eight executive agencies.

The other proposed change that failed to pass was Amendment Four, which would have changed all gender-specific pronouns in the constitution to gender-neutral pronouns.

However, the other two amendments on the ballot passed.

Amendment Two, which requires ASUNM senators to maintain a 2.5 GPA, carry six credit hours and stay off of University probation throughout their tenures at UNM, got two thirds of the total student votes and passed.

So did Amendment Three, which will transfer composition requirements of the ASUNM Elections Commission from the constitution to the ASUNM Lawbook.

buildings … In an ideal world, we would have every building on campus fully equipped.”

Black said the University should make students more aware of where fire-prevention materials are stowed and about evacuation protocols during fires.

“Having fire extinguishers in the buildings would help, and have people know where to get them,” she said. “Teachers should know what to do if there’s a fire, and make sure everyone knows how to evacuate the building.”

But he said fire prevention measures could still be improved.

“Each classroom is provided with a portable fire extinguisher,” he said. “The building does meet code requirements. Still, you have to consider the date of the

#Relationship S A weekly column about the modern search for love at UNM.

Holding out for a hero

by Josh Dolin @JoshuaDolin

When you think of a superhero, what comes to mind? If you are like my friends and me, then you might be thinking of rippling muscles, a stylish outfit and a cape that just won’t stop.

But that is not the only reason we are attracted to heroes, right?

Last week I went to see “Thor: The Dark World” at midnight with Alice, Ashley, and Alice’s boyfriend, Bill. Alice and Bill went because they like the story and it was date night, but Ashley and I went because there is nothing better than staring at a hot man for two hours on a Thursday night.

If you haven’t seen the movie yet, I highly recommend that you do. His shirt comes off within the first 10 minutes so you know that you are getting your money’s worth.

Once the movie was over, and we all sufficiently wished that we were Jane Foster, the girls and I went home.

“I like heroes because they are there to protect you, which is the thing I want most in a man,” Ashley said. “Just to know that there is someone who wants nothing more than to keep you safe.”

“I think muscles are a big part of why I am so attracted to heroes,” Alice responded. “But they also risk everything for the ones they love, and what more could a girl ask for?”

“Oh yeah, heroes in movies have tight hot abs, a golden tan and are manly, which is exactly what I need,” Ashley said.

I agreed with both of them. I think that is what we all want out of a relationship — someone who loves us and would do anything to save us. But from what?

“The man I spend the rest of my life with will be a hero,” Ashley said. “Because he will have special qualities, or powers if you will, that no other man has. And he will rescue me from my lonely life.”

Is that what a modern hero is to us?

Someone who can save us from another lonely night watching Netflix in bed?

There may not be an Iron Man or a Captain America in real life, but what does a guy have to do to be one of those superheroes for us? Do they need to save the world from Loki, or do they just need to take us on a date?

I decided that I had not had enough of seeing muscular men in tight costumes so I watched “The Avengers,” “Captain America,” and “Thor” on Netflix over the weekend. What had been missing this whole time? I always thought that superhero movies were for comic book nerds, but they are not at all!

Those movies speak to girls, or gay boys, because we all dream of having someone as super as these men are.

Collette agreed that she looks for many superhero qualities in her dates.

“I like a man that can take control and doesn’t have to wait for me to initiate things,” Collette said. “They are just the right amount of cocky to where it is sexy, but not too annoying.”

Sure Collette’s favorite superhero is Iron Man, but the qualities she likes in him are not his strength, wealth or fame. She searches for men who can model his style of confidence and care for women.

Since I have recently discovered a love for superheroes, I decided that I needed to talk to Aurora since she is the expert. Her favorite superhero is Spider-Man because he is a “sexy nerd” which is the type of guy she is looking for.

“To be honest all superheroes are insanely hot, and that’s all I need to know,” Aurora said.

When she and I are not re-watching Disney movies or “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” together, we are usually watching superhero movies just to see their muscles.

Maggie disagreed with all of us. “I just want a normal guy. I’m not super, and he doesn’t need to be either,” she said. “But I do like superheroes because their lives are way more interesting than mine.”

The reason I like to watch superhero movies is because they give me hope that I can find my own hero in life. Someone who is strong, loving and willing to risk his life to save me.

And I think that is why we all need a hero.

“A hero is someone that would make me a better person,” Ashley said. “It’s the kind of guy I dream about and hope to spend the rest of my life with because he will truly be super.”

“Bill and my parents are my superheroes,” Alice said. “Because I know that they would do anything for me.”

“My mom is also my real-life superhero,” Collette said. “Because she gives me motivation every day and sends me candy when I am upset.”

I agreed with Collette. Maybe I watch these movies because I dream of Thor saving me and protecting me with his biceps and perfectly conditioned hair, but that is not who my real hero is.

Heroes are the people who believe in us, protect us, and are the first people we turn to when things go wrong. So my mom is my superhero. Hopefully one day I can find my own Captain America, but no one will ever have more superpowers than my mom.

My friends and I do not want men with iron suits, or men who can summon lightning, or even men who have super strength.

We all want men with a super amount of love for us.

We want a man who can protect us, and care for us. A man who can make us feel like the most important person in the world, and never stop believing in us. Heroes are all around us. They may not have perfect biceps or a fierce costume, but they care for us. We all need a hero, and hopefully we can all find one. But if I can’t find one of these heroes, am I always going to be #WaitingToBeSaved?

IMAX theater to the max Big changes are coming to Winrock Center this week as a new 16screen IMAX theater welcomes moviegoers to its grand opening.

The Winrock Stadium 16 celebrated its grand opening week with $2 popcorn, soft drinks and select movies Sunday through Wednesday and is celebrating with additional special events throughout the weekend.

Each of the four days featured a set of themed movies, such as ‘Sunday Fun Day’, ‘Superheroes for a Cause’ and ‘Reading, Writing and Regal,’ each of which donated the proceeds from the day to a local charity. Charities included NDI New Mexico, Ronald McDonald House, Roadrunner Food Bank and the Albuquerque Public Schools foundation.

Though there are more than 80 IMAX/RPX theaters across the United States, this is the first to be built in New Mexico.

IMAX, meaning maximum image, screens are different from the long and narrow screens of typical auditoriums. They are curved forward and span wall to wall and ceiling to floor to bring the audience members closer to the action.

The Winrock Stadium 16 is also the first New Mexico theater to include a Regal Premium Experience (RPX) screen, which “presents movies in the way filmmakers intended with powerful, uncompressed sound and bright eyepopping images in 2D and 3D,” according to a press release from Regal Entertainment Group.

Rachel Lueras, the western region marketing manager for Regal Entertainment Group, said the company is pleased with the turnout of the first few days.

“There has been a lot of community chatter about the theater and I hear people say how happy they are that we are here on this side of town,” she said. “I think that this opening has topped the attendance of others that I have worked with.”

Lueras came from the company’s headquarters in Knoxville,

The new theater is one of four Regal theatres in Albuquerque and is next to the Winrock Mall on Louisiana and I-40, which is central enough to make people want to go to the movies more, said UNM senior Jacqui Stump.

“I am definitely a moviegoer.

But I will probably come here more because it is closer to where I live and everything else,” Stump said.

Stump said she and her boyfriend were visiting the theater for the third time this week.

“We saw ‘Pacific Rim’ in the IMAX theatre. It was unbelievable,” she said.

The theater celebrates its official grand opening Friday. Regal Crown Club members receive free popcorn and soda with their tickets and the company is giving away merchandise to the first 100 moviegoers on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

According to a Redevelopment Project Description released by the property owner, Goodman Realty, plans are underway to make Winrock Center a public destination for retail, office and living spaces.

Though the plan lacks a timeframe, it includes plans for fitness centers, a 30-foot scuba diving tank stocked with Pacific Ocean fish, an indoor skydiving facility and various specialty food and retail shops.

Behind the decision

culture@dailylobo.com

Graphics and story by Jyllian Roach Photos by Aaron Sweet @AaronCSweet

Sarah Crawford’s, Jocelyn Quintana’s and Ruthie Fogelman’s ages span across two decades.

Their life stories and career goals are radically different, but they have one important thing in common: all three women got pregnant and considered abortion.

The Nov. 19 vote on the “Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act” has sparked heated local conversation on

Sarah’s Story

Spanish major Sarah Crawford said she has had two abortions.

The first, she said she was twenty something, she used a condom and she still got pregnant.

Crawford said she was not ready for a child and found a clinic in her area and went alone to have the procedure.

“It was traumatic because I didn’t know the process or how long it was going to take or how I would feel afterward, but I was relieved afterward,” she said. “I don’t regret it.

It was the best decision for me.”

Years later, Crawford said she was studying abroad in South America when she found out she was pregnant by her long-term boyfriend.

But Crawford was in a country where abortion is illegal.

A medication called Mifipristone, more commonly known as RU-486, is known to cause miscarriages in women if it is taken during the first seven weeks of pregnancy. It is also used to treat glaucoma, major depression and various types of cancer.

Crawford said she and her boyfriend went through several doctors and then several pharmacies before they were able to obtain the pills.

Since abortions were illegal, Crawford said she did not have access to professionals who could Of the countries walk her through the process. Instead, in South America, she watched YouTube videos and read restrict abortions with pamphlets about the varying circumstances process. exceptions and 3 allow Still unsure of how she would react to unrestricted abortions the pills, and worried about upsetting her host family, Crawford said she and her boyfriend rented a hostel for the weekend, where she took the pills.

“I wanted him to be there with me. I’d done it the other way, with the surgical procedure, but I’d never taken pills before,” she said.

During both pregnancies, the 32-year-old said she felt guilty and irresponsible. Feelings she said she thinks many women have because of the shaming within society.

“When a man has sex, he’s not shamed for it. When a woman has sex, more often, she is shamed for it. He’s not going to get pregnant. She might, and when she does – when I did – that’s the first thing I went to,” she said. “You think back on all the things that you could’ve done, that you should’ve done.”

Crawford said she wants to be vocal about her experience because she feels women shouldn’t be looked down on for their decisions about their bodies. Worldwide, she said, about 30 percent of women have an abortion in their lifetime.

She said others often do not understand how difficult it can be to make the decision to abort, and that often leads to the idea that women agree to abortions often and easily.

“I don’t think anybody actually wants to abort. Meaning nobody’s stoked about it, like ‘We’re going to the fair, this is awesome.’ It’s not something you get excited about,” she said.

Crawford said she participated in early voting for the “Pain Capable Unborn Child Act.” She cast her vote against the measure.

“I did so because I believe that it is important that we continue to support a woman’s right to make decisions that are right for her, without government interference,” she said.

New Mexico’s late-term abortion laws as well as broad debates about abortion in general.

New Mexico has no restrictions on abortions; a woman can choose to have one for any reason up to the moment of birth.

While politics, religion and proselytizing abound in the conversation, what do women who have become

pregnant have to say? What is it like to be faced with the decision of abortion, and how do women decide what to do?

While these three women do not speak for every woman, or every situation, their stories give a peek into why a woman might terminate or continue her pregnancy.

Jocelyn Quintana said she was happy when she found out she was pregnant in 2007.

She and her boyfriend wanted to have a family and excitedly prepared for baby Joseph.

During a routine 20week ultrasound, Quintana said her doctor noticed that the baby’s head was shaped like a lemon and ordered more testing.

The test results were devastating for Quintana. Baby Joseph had Spina Bifida Cystica, the worst and most rare form, she said. The baby had already developed anencephaly, a side-effect where fluid builds up in the skull, causing brain damage.

Doctors told Quintana her baby would be born brain dead, she said.

“It was really hard to decide what to do,” she said. “I wanted to have my child.”

Quintana, a practicing Catholic, said her entire family was by her side as she explored her options. She said she spoke to geneticists, researched Spina Bifida and even went with her mother to visit patients at Carrie Tingley Hospital.

“There was a gentleman there, he was 23 years old, and he had Spina Bifida. He told me about how he has bags for his bowels and bladder and how he’s never had a really good life. He told me that if his mother could have, he wishes she should have terminated him when she was pregnant,” she said.

Quintana terminated her pregnancy at 25 weeks.

After months of grief counseling and recovery, Quintana and her boyfriend became pregnant again. This time with a girl, whom they planned to name Melanie.

Quintana shared her concerns about Spina Bifida with her doctors, hoping that there was a way to ensure a healthy baby this time, she said. see Jocelyn’s PAGE 9 “(The doctors) said

Nineteen-year-old Ruthie Fogleman is a business major at CNM, with multi-colored hair and a Hello Kitty Backpack.

She’s been dating her boyfriend for a year and spends her free time with her grandmother.

She is also eight months pregnant and is excited about the birth of her first child.

When Fogleman found out she was pregnant, she and her boyfriend agreed that an abortion was the best choice.

“Basically, he said ‘We can’t have a kid because we’re young and we have a lot to do and that would just interfere with everything’ and I said ‘You’re right,’” Fogleman said.

Fogleman is a student and works fulltime in a call center, and her 22-year-old boyfriend has not yet enrolled in college. A baby, she said, would be too much.

Fogleman called a clinic, scheduled an appointment and began looking for the money to have the procedure.

This was when the doubts first started, she said. Finding the money was proving difficult and each passing day only reminded Fogleman of what was happening within her out of every About body.

New Mexico “I didn’t want to waste any time. You Babies will be born with just realize (the baby’s) developing more Spina Bidida each year and more,” she said.

A conversation changed her mind.

there shouldn’t be any worry. It’s almost unheard of for it to happen twice,” she said.

But it did. At 20 weeks, the baby was diagnosed with Spina Bifida Cystica and Anencephaly.

Quintana said she and her boyfriend ended the pregnancy at 21 weeks.

The stress and pain of the experience caused a rift between Quintana and her boyfriend and the two broke up shortly after.

In 2009, Quintana said she was in another committed relationship and making progress in life.

Then, Quintana got pregnant a third time.

“I seriously thought of aborting the child right away because I was thinking I couldn’t have kids; they were all going to have Spina Bifida,” she said.

Quintana said she decided to wait for the ultrasound. For her, five months was a short time to wait if it meant having a child.

Her patience paid off, Quintana’s 20 week ultrasound revealed a healthy boy.

Now 26, Quintana said she’s a single mom and takes classes at the University of Phoenix as a business administration major while working at an insurance office.

Quintana said she plans to vote against the proposed “Pain Capable Unborn Child Act.” “As a woman, I feel it is my choice in what I do with my body,” she said. “I had the choice on whether or not I want to bring someone in this world to suffer. Just like a family would make a decision to stop a loved one’s suffering on life support, by pulling the plug. My family and I made a hard decision to pull the plug as well.”

of three, told the younger woman about her abortion, and how it had left her with only one working ovary.

“That was the day when I decided I wasn’t going to do it,” she said.

Fogleman said she cancelled the appointment and told her boyfriend she had decided to go through with the pregnancy.

Her boyfriend, she said, was not thrilled at first.

She said he thought it was a selfish decision and reminded her that she was not finished with school. He came around quickly though, she said.

“Now he’s just like ‘Oh, our baby,’” she said.

The pregnancy alone has already affected Fogleman’s life, she said. Her job requires hours of sitting, which often leaves her sore, and her energy level has sunk, making school a little harder to keep up with, she said.

“I’ve had to call into work because I’m just really exhausted, and I’m not taking as many classes,” she said.

Now a happy mother-to-be, Fogleman said she is expecting a baby boy on Dec. 15. She plans to quit her job and continue taking classes while her sister babysits. One day, Fogleman said she hopes to open her own salon and massage business.

She said she will continue living with her grandmother for the time being, but may decide in the future to move in with her boyfriend.

Fogleman said she does not plan to vote on the “Pain Capable Unborn Child Act.” “I really don’t care either way. I don’t want to get involved in other people’s choices,” she said. “I didn’t have an abortion, but I don’t care if other people do.”

More stores open on Turkey Day

by Anne D’Innocenzio The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Last Thanksgiving Day, Kimberly Mudge Via’s mother, sister and nieces left in the middle of their meals to head for the mall.

Now, Via says she’ll never host Thanksgiving dinner for her relatives again.

“They barely finished,” says the 28-year-old who lives in Boone, N.C. “They thanked me and left their plates on the counter.”

That scene could become more common in homes across the country. Black Friday shopping, the annual rite of passage on the day after Thanksgiving, continues to creep further into the holiday as more stores open their doors a day early.

It’s a break with tradition. Black Friday, which typically is the year’s biggest shopping day, for a decade has been considered the official start to the busy holiday buying season. Stores open in the wee hours of the morning with special deals called doorbusters and stay open late into the evening. Meanwhile, Thanksgiving and Christmas remained the only two days a year that stores were closed.

Now Thanksgiving is slowly becoming just another shopping day.

Over the past few years, major retailers, including Target and Toys R Us, slowly have pushed opening times into Thanksgiving night to one-up each other and compete for holiday dollars. Some initially resisted, saying that they wanted their employees to be able to spend time with their families.

This year, more than a dozen major retailers are opening on Thanksgiving, including a handful like Macy’s, J.C. Penney and Staples that are doing it for the first time. The Gap, which operates its Old Navy, Gap and Banana Republic, is opening half of its stores on Thanksgiving morning.

Roger Beahm, professor of marketing at the Wake Forest University School of Business in WinstonSalem, N.C., expects that it’s just a matter of time — he estimates five years — before most chains open all day on Thanksgiving. As for Christmas, he says that day is still sacred among shoppers.

Indeed, retailers say they’re just doing what shoppers want. And they know that opening earlier gives them a chance to be the first to grab shoppers’ dollars. That’s an

important opportunity for chains, which can make up to 40 percent of their annual revenue during the last two months of the year.

But so far, it’s unclear whether opening on Thanksgiving boosts retailers’ top line or simply pushes forward sales from Friday. Last year, it was the latter: Sales on Thanksgiving were $810 million last year, an increase of 55 percent from the previous year as more stores opened on the holiday, according to Chicago research firm ShopperTrak.

But business dropped 1.8 percent to $11.2 billion on Black Friday, though it still was the biggest shopping day last year. That day accounted for about 4.3 percent of holiday sales last year.

Given the controversy, opening on Thanksgiving can be a difficult decision for retailers to make.

For instance, last year, Macy’s and J.C. Penney didn’t open on Thanksgiving evening as competitors did. Both chains say they wanted to honor their workers’ time with their families. But this year, they changed their tune.

Tony Bartlett, executive vice president of Penney’s stores, says the company decided to open at 8

Thanksgiving is slowly becoming just another shopping day as at least a dozen major retailers are planning to open on Thanksgiving this year. p.m. on Thanksgiving this year because of customer feedback. He also says Penney store employees wanted to open on Thanksgiving so they could get the chance to better compete with rivals.

Not every store is opening on turkey day, though. A couple of retailers even put out statements specifically noting that they won’t be opening on Thanksgiving so that their employees won’t have to work.

“We believe it is important for our team members to be able to

spend this time with their loved ones,” Travis Smith, CEO and president of Jo Ann Fabric and Craft Stores, says in a statement. The retailer plans to open at 6 a.m. on Black Friday.

B.J.’s Wholesale Club also says it will not open on Thanksgiving.

“Once again, BJ’s is bucking the trend of putting sales on Thanksgiving above family time,” BJ’s says in a statement in which it announced that it would open stores at 7 a.m. on Black Friday.

Play crashes and stays burning

New Mexico Daily Lobo

by Graham Gentz

culture@dailylobo.com Entertainment should strive to provide what the audience wants, but not in the way they expect.

Or if they can’t be bothered, just some hackneyed trash will do.

The Aux Dog Theatre has selected “Boeing Boeing,” a 1960s French sex farce, as its oddly dated choice for its current production. The only real surprise for the audience is how the production is such a clumsy, embarrassing mess.

Cartoonish stock characters perform sloppy, awkward attempts at slapstick and mostly scream their lines in bizarre attempts at humor.

It’s a bit like a child leaping around in front of a TV or the class clown whose wild attempts at public humor are as lame as they are perplexing.

The actors are constantly turned it up to 11, and never take a breather or chance at variety.

And no amount of prevalent 1960s miniskirts can save it. The script is trashy and trite and no attempt is made by the performers to experiment, comment or elevate the content.

How this bewildering monster of a production managed to bloat and wail its way into existence is mystifying at best and shameful at worst.

The show runs an absurd three acts with two full intermissions, totaling almost three hours. This isn’t “Lawrence of Arabia.” It’s a base slapstick about polyamory.

There is no conceivable reason it should be nearly three hours.

Even the tired, predictable premise holds no tension or

From left, Merritt Glover, Sheridan Johnson and Jessica Osbourne surprises. Test yourself if you can see where this is going: An American man living in Paris is dating three airline stewardesses simultaneously. He explains to his painfully stereotypical dweeb pal that they fly into and out Paris so often that they’re never around at the same time.

Rather hard to say, really.

The play is a whole three acts, after all. So maybe a war will break out. Perhaps a saga of their child and their children’s children, like a French “East of Eden.”

No, not really. The three ladies are going to actually be there all at once. Hard to believe, but it’s true.

The worst part of the premise is that the play goes nowhere. It spirals slow and vapid down toward the dull inevitable. One look at the set and then within the first few minutes during which the

Courtesy photo

premise is explained, and you can see it all: women popping in and out of doors. Men running around waving their arms and babbling unrealistic lies.

So zany you fear your head might pop.

And you hope that something else will be done. Something unpredictable and sudden beyond the wacky visions of prophesy.

But you’d be wrong. Dear God, you’re wrong.

People left in the second intermission with almost a full hour left of the running time. It’s really hard to blame them.

When the “rip-roaring” finale arrives nothing really happens.

The plot dutifully ends, having run its course of falling over enough times to be satisfied.

It also fails to reason that since the polyamorous protagonist sees women as so easily replaceable, complete with an airline

pimp who feeds him a bounty of new foreign stewardesses semiconstantly, that it really isn’t such a big deal if he is ultimately busted in his finagling.

The women are represented as flat clichés of an American, Italian and German. The dated racism lacks self-awareness or insight and produces only eyerolling monotony.

“I’m getting on your nerves,” one howls at one point.

Why, yes. Yes, you are.

There isn’t a single performance in the show that isn’t the result of creative poverty.

So who’s really to blame? The script and/or whomever selected it? Those with the most creative control, who just couldn’t stop themselves from going completely overboard? Those who got to watch the “Boening Boening” crash crash and burn burn from afar, saying nothing?

Really, it’s everyone. Theater is a collaborative process. It succeeds or fails on the backs of everyone involved.

And you too, if you see it. Unless you’ve got three hours to kill and a pronounced sense of morbid curiosity. And in that case, go right ahead.
