Native Americans enroll in record numbers at med school by Tricia Remark Daily Lobo

The UNM School of Medicine enrolled nine Native Americans this year, though it’s never had more than four per year in the past. Gayle Dine-Chacon, vice president of the UNM Center for Native American Health, said the increase is unprecedented. “We are possibly the only school in the nation to have this many Native American students accepted into medical school,” she said. Other universities near Native American reservations, like those in Oklahoma, Arizona and Kansas have not seen an increase in Native American enrollment, according to spokespersons from each university. The University of Kansas School of Medicine enrollment decreased to just one Native American student for the fall semester. David Bear, assistant dean of admissions for the UNM School of Medicine, said Native Americans are poorly represented in the medical field. One reason for UNM’s increased enrollment is new recruiting methods from the Office of Admissions and the Office of

Diversity, he said. “(Native American) students who did apply often had a number of competing offers, so when we would admit them, they would say ‘thank you but no thank you,’ and go other places,” Bear said. “We have student recruiters now who are from particular ethnic groups who can go into the high schools and colleges and interface with students at their own level.” Two out of the nine Native American medical students received full tuition scholarships to the UNM School of Medicine. Only five or six full tuition scholarships are awarded per medical school class. Cheo Torres, vice president of Student Affairs, has authored several works about Native American medicine, including Curandero: A Life in Mexican Folk Healing. Torres said bringing Native American traditions into a Western medicine context can benefit health care as a whole. “Modern medicine and traditional medicine — they can certainly go hand in hand, and this combination is already happening in our Health Science Center,” he said. “Treatment should depend on what

the patient needs.” He said Native American students at the School Of Medicine will help meet the needs of the surrounding population. According to the U.S. News and World Report, UNM Hospital is ranked second in the nation for rural medicine. Dine-Chacon said the Center for Native American Health created a Native American student center six months ago, and it draws Native American students to UNM. “It’s a place for them to socialize, to network, and to be amongst others that have a similar background,” she said. Dine-Chacon said the student center also has a computer, printer, books and study areas for Native American students. She said these are important resources since many students have little money to spare while in medical school. “We provide small funds that may help students if they need things that were un-anticipated, like a stethoscope or materials to present a research project,” she said. Dine-Chacon said that all of these programs for Native American students should help them throughout their medical careers.

UNMH a pioneer in robotic surgery by Abigail Ramirez Daily Lobo

A UNM surgeon was the first to reconstruct a pediatric patient’s dysfunctional kidney without even touching him. Jason Wilson, associate professor of surgery and section chief of pediatric urology, used a surgical robot for the 3-year-old boy’s procedure at UNM’s Children’s Hospital this summer. Wilson said many doctors used to think they couldn’t do surgery properly without having their hands inside the patient. “For years, with laparoscopic surgery, what people talked about is that they didn’t feel they could do the same operation as they could if they made a big incision in a patient and they used their hands,” he said. “With the robotic surgery, you can really do just as good an operation as you can with your actual hands inside of a patient.” Satyan Shah, director of robotic surgery, said the robot’s four arms are able to mimic the surgeon’s

Shah said the hospital had only done robotic procedures on adults since September, when they bought the $2 million surgical robot. He said the robot has performed about 150 surgeries. Robotic arms and a high-definition camera are inserted through dime-sized incisions on the patient’s abdominal area, Shah said. The robotic camera gives surgeons a three-dimensional view inside of the body. “The vision that you get with the robot is a magnitude greater than what you could possibly get

with any other forms of surgery,” he said. In laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon sits in a console where his thumb and index finger are inserted into Velcro straps. The finger movements and control use are then mimicked by the robot. “Whatever you do in that console, it gets translated into movements of the robotic arms, so our hands never actually go inside the body,” who said. Shah said the surgical instruments at the end of the arms are smaller than a human finger. During the surgery, a second surgeon switches out the different instruments and an anesthesiologist and nurse monitor the patient.

Health care employees picket for improved pay by Leah Valencia Daily Lobo

UNM Hospital health care workers have reached an agreement with hospital administrators granting employees a 2.7 percent annual wage increase. Nearly 45 health care employees picketed outside the hospital on Aug. 10 for improved wages and benefits. The employees partnered with the National Union of Hospital and Health Care Employees for the demonstration. Negotiations still continue. UNM Hospital License and Technical president Gilberta Miera said past negotiations with hospital administrators have not gone well. “The last two years we have gone above and beyond, and they have expected us to come forward, but now they won’t come forward,” she said. A representative from the UNM Hospital negotiations team declined to comment. With health care premiums rising, Miera said workers will be losing money if they don’t get a raise, despite a 3.5 percent wage increase last year. Critical Care Nurse Dahlia Lopez said the relationship between administrators and employees has been strained because staff members are not appreciated. “UNM is the only trauma hospital in the state and we have the lowest wages. The people who work here — we work here because we care,” she said. “We do what it takes

to take care of the patients who are here.” Lopez said although she sympathizes with the hospital’s need to save money during hard economic times, she wants management to consider employee needs. “I understand management wanting to hold onto money for a rainy day, but we have employees here that cannot afford health insurance because they do not make enough money to pay for insurance,” she said. Miera said the picket was not designed to get a response from hospital administrators but to inform the community about problems UNM Hospital employees are facing. “We are not doing this to captivate them,” she said. “We are doing this because it is our right and we are tired of being walked all over. We don’t want a negative relationship, but we are going to continue to agitate the employees union because we want to continue to show them our position.” Chris Chavez, executive director of the NM Federation of Labor AFL-CIO, said UNM Hospital needs to understand that its employees are the backbone of the health care industry. “Corporate employees wouldn’t have a job if it wasn’t for those that work for them,” he said. “The worker is more important than the buck.” An agreement was drafted on Aug. 11 before health care workers voted and approved it Aug. 13 and

Satellite Coffee lands at the SUB Tough charges in Missouri Staff Report Daily Lobo

Locally-owned Satellite Coffee shops are replacing national chain stores in two locations on campus. Chartwell’s, UNM’s food service provider, decided on the switch last month, in part because the Starbucks inside the UNM Bookstore was due for a renovation. “It was too costly to renovate the Starbucks, so we looked at other options and we found Satellite,” said Rudy Simchak, resident district manager of Chartwell’s. UNM Fair Trade Initiative cochair Linley Green said it’s a step in the right direction.

“We’re always for supporting the local economy,” she said. “More money for local businesses goes back directly to the state’s economy.” The UNM Bookstore Satellite opened Aug. 3, and the Satellite in the SUB, formerly Higher Grounds, is set to open Monday. Former Starbucks employees were re-hired at both locations. The UNM Fair Trade Initiative started a campaign at the end of the Spring semester pressuring Chartwell’s to provide more local produce and fair trade products on campus, but Chartwell’s made the decision to bring in Satellite before the campaign began.

Green said SatelSatellite Coffee lite is preferopening in SUB able to StarMonday, Aug. 17 bucks for additional reasons. “As far as Satellite specifically goes, they have more fair-trade coffee,” she said. “More of their food comes from local sources. They’re more involved in the community.” Saggio’s and Dos Hermanos are other local chains in the SUB. Sahara, a local Mediterranean restaurant, opened last week in the SUB. A Starbucks will remain in Zimmerman Library.

human trafficking case by Bill Draper

The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. — From a nondescript brick building a few blocks from the bright lights of Westport, Kansas City’s oldest entertainment district, Giant Labor Solutions lured hundreds of foreigners to the city with promises of good jobs and a chance to live the American dream. But from 2001 until this spring, Giant Labor and two other metro-area companies turned the workers into slaves, fanning them out to housekeeping jobs in hotels and other businesses in 14 states while forcing them to live, sometimes eight at a time, in small apartments for which they were charged exorbitant rent, federal authorities allege. Most of the workers were in the country illegally and were threatened with deportation. In a 45-count indictment handed down in May, the U.S. attorney’s office accuses eight Uzbekistan nationals and four others in the largest human trafficking case ever prosecuted

in the city. Authorities say it is the first time a human trafficking ring has been charged under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, the federal statute most often associated with mafia cases. It’s also the first time the charge of fraud in foreign labor contracting has been used since it was added last year to the Trafficking Victims Protection Act, which in 2000 became the first comprehensive federal law for prosecution of traffickers. G. Robert Blakey, a professor at Notre Dame Law School who helped write the RICO statute in 1970, said the law allows prosecutors to try criminal operations as a whole, rather than individually. RICO requires prosecutors to present evidence against everyone involved in a racketeering ring, instead of being limited to evidence against only that person, he said. By presenting a bigger case, the government also has more leverage to pursue bigger forfeitures, such as the

LETTERS Grad programs must provide means for earning degrees Editor, I would like to express my disappointment and anger with the policy used to enroll students into graduate school. I graduated this May with a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, and I was excited to pursue my master’s degree in the same career field. So I invested much of my own time, money and effort to apply for the MSME program and begin my graduate studies this coming semester. Eventually, I was officially admitted into the program. However, a few weeks later I struggled to find an assistantship that fits my research interests. To my dismay, I discovered that a consensus was reached by these faculty members to eliminate the coursework option. If graduate school applicants are admitted into the program of their choice, they must be guaranteed some sort of assistantship or another project that they can use to earn their master’s or Ph.D. I believe it’s wrong for anyone to be admitted into a graduate program only to be told that there are no means of earning their graduate degree.

LAST WEEK’S POLL RESULTS: of 187 respondents

Was President Obama correct to criticize the arrest of Henry Louis Gates? No. The officer was simply doing his 57% job, and Obama unfairly questioned his authority. Yes. Obama’s comments came in re- 23% sponse to a reporter’s question, and the president was just being honest. No. The president has more important 14% things to worry about than local disputes between citizens and police. Yes. The police officer acted wrongly 6% and practiced racial profiling.

THIS WEEK’S POLL: Should health care reform include a public option? Yes. Insurance companies wield too much influence, and a public option would force them to compete for customers.

Yes. Private insurers are inefficient. The public option would streamline the process.

No. Government intervention will only bog down the system and cost taxpayers money.

Why is 33 percent owner/investor Richard Branson offering us a potential nightmare and risk at a historically unpredictable potential drought site?

asking for viable risk, when there need not be? Aren’t farms, food and our southern neighbors as important? Have they been reminded of the potential risk? I think we as New Mexicans need specific answers before assenting to this large a potential ecologic disaster. Taxes are on the rise, and taxpayers are on the lift to uncontrolled inflation. Why build it? So they can come? Wasn’t Gov. Bill Richardson under investigation for a payto-play scheme? Weren’t some UNM regents also suspected? Could these two coincidences be checked on? Are staff at UNM doctoring the surveys of the Rio Grande for individual gain of the regents? Hasn’t there been a past to this, much like droughts in a desert? What’s next? Richardson found guilty of a poorly planned or flawed MRGCD report to benefit Virgin Galactic? Doubt that. Let’s call a review on these poorly planned ideas from Santa Fe. Let’s ask if UNM and

It doesn’t make sense to bring more people where droughts have often plagued its inhabitants. Growing grass and golf courses are faux pas in New Mexico. Stop it.

foresight and proper planning and preparations for the future. As the G.I. Bill took effect Aug. 1, there were programs — in particular, the Yellow Ribbon Program — that should have been addressed properly by UNM. The Yellow Ribbon Program helps cover tuition, fees and some expenses that are beyond the G.I. Bill, coverage that the student would have to pay for out of pocket. This program would be very helpful for students in the medical, business and pharmacy programs, and for graduate and professional students. Because these programs are more expensive, the student could incur an extra expense between $1,000 to $3,000, which should be covered by the Yellow Ribbon Program but cannot be because UNM did not address this program properly from the beginning. UNM’s agreement for the Yellow Ribbon

Program is to provide 10 recipients with a whopping $486 each. This program also excludes paying for student veterans attending the Anderson School of Management, the School of Law and the Pharmacy School. How can UNM shortchange these veterans by putting together a meager program? There are currently more than 600 veterans attending UNM, and many are graduate students. So how does UNM fare among the other institutions of higher education? According to the Veterans Administration’s reports of the Yellow Ribbon Program by state, most provide five to 15 times more money than UNM, for an unlimited number of students for any field of study. Only one school fares worse than UNM, and that is New Mexico State University, which has no Yellow Ribbon Program. President David Schmidly’s response is that financial and economic problems are at hand and that current planning is to lobby for more funding from the Legislature. I only say that UNM had an opportunity to put together a truly solid Yellow Ribbon Program since June of last year, and not to start this in the latter part of 2009. UNM’s strategic plan talks about instilling students with strength, relevance, research and leadership — some of the characteristics that are clearly lacking from Schmidly’s office, which allowed the Yellow Ribbon Program to become a model for what not to do.

Trafficking from page 2 $6 million it is seeking in the Giant Labor case. Blakey said RICO was amended in 1995 to include provisions dealing specifically with modern slavery, but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not surprised it took 14 years for someone to use the law in a human trafficking case. Prosecutors allege a pattern of racketeering in the Giant Labor case that included threatening victims with serious harm to themselves or others and threatening to use the legal system against them. Blakey applauded Assistant U.S. Attorney Cynthia Cordes, the top human trafficking prosecutor in Missouriâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Western District, for her efforts in pursuing the RICO charge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s squarely within what Congress had intended,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not pushing the envelope. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right in the center of the box.â&#x20AC;? The indictment says Abrorkhodja

Askarkhodjaev, 30, owned and operated Giant Labor, a labor-leasing company, and controlled a dozen other businesses that filed fraudulent applications for foreign workers. Askarkhodjaev and others used false IDs to create the companies and open dozens of bank accounts for them, prosecutors said. The workers, who were mainly from the Dominican Republic, Jamaica and the Philippines, paid thousands of dollars â&#x20AC;&#x201D; often taking out loans in their home countries â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for Giant Labor to bring them to the U.S. and get them temporary visas, authorities said. But once they arrived, the workers were stuck in small, sparsely furnished apartments, had no access to their mail and were charged so many fees that they were sometimes told on payday they owed the company money.

Since childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bodies are small, Wilson said positioning the equipment properly takes some time, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very hard to work with them in that small amount of space, so the robot arms can start hitting each other, and you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to a certain position that you want to,â&#x20AC;? he said. According to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Early Experiences of Robotic Surgery in Children,â&#x20AC;? an article published in the journal Surgical Endoscopy, the robots are limited in what they can do since children-sized equipment has yet to be manufactured. Shah said while the surgeries are harder to do with the robot, the patient still experiences the robotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s benefits. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously, you have the small incision and those are easy to recover from as opposed to making a big incision,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you do an operation thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s less traumatic inside the body, the patient doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lose much blood, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s less pain, less scarring, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to go home earlier and get back to work earlier.â&#x20AC;? Wilson said since the patient experiences less pain, they need a smaller amount of pain medicine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The number-one surgery has been prostate cancer, so people who were diagnosed with prostate cancer need their prostate removed, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re using the robot to remove their prostate,â&#x20AC;? he said. Wilson said once patients understand how robotic surgery works, they often choose it over traditional surgery. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing to be afraid of,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You hear, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Robotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and think outer space things and stuff, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really not like that at all.

Milwaukee mayor hospitalized after attack

New Mexico Daily Lobo

Picket

by Dinesh Ramde

The Associated Press MILWAUKEE— Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett was hospitalized Sunday after a man attacked him with a metal pipe as the mayor tried to assist a grandmother screaming for help near the Wisconsin State Fair. Barrett, 55, was in stable condition at a local hospital with a fractured hand and other head and hand wounds, official said. The mayor had gone to the fair outside Milwaukee on Saturday night with his sister, two daughters and a niece. As the group left and walked to Barrett’s car, they heard a woman screaming for someone to call 911, police said. Police said the woman was a grandmother who was trying to protect her 1-year-old granddaughter from a 20-year-old man, an assault

The mayor was beaten while breaking up a domestic dispute. authorities characterized as a domestic dispute. “The mayor stopped and said something (to the man) like, ‘Let’s all cool down here, I’m going to call 911,’” the mayor’s spokesman Patrick Curley said. “He said it one or two times according to him. When he took out his phone, that’s when the suspect attacked him.” The suspect hit Barrett in the head and torso with a metal pipe. Barrett apparently fought back, fracturing his hand when he punched the suspect. “I think he hit the guy,” Curley said. “I don’t know where, but it was

hard enough, whatever he hit, to fracture his hand.” The suspect then fled the area when he heard sirens. He was arrested on Sunday at a Milwaukee home, and police recovered the alleged weapon. The woman and baby were uninjured. The mayor, who did not ask for security to accompany him to the fair because he wasn’t on official duty, underwent successful surgery Sunday on his fractured right hand and also had cuts on his head and lip stitched up, Curley said. The mayor likely will remain in the hospital through Mon-

day, he said. The mayor’s brother, John Barrett, said the family was optimistic about the mayor’s recovery. “We’re extremely proud of Tom’s selflessness and his courage,” John Barrett said, fighting back tears at a news conference. Gov. Jim Doyle said he also visited Barrett at the hospital Sunday morning and found him in “good spirits and looking good considering what happened.” “The mayor’s heroic actions clearly saved a woman and others from harm,” Doyle said in a statement.

Miera said management was eager to reach an agreement after the picket, and was more receptive to employee needs. “We received a 2.7 percent annual increase, and although management was trying to take retirement out of our contracts, they agreed to leave it in.” she said. Lopez said UNM Hospital employees have earned a pay increase, which shows appreciation for all the work health care employees do. “I am hoping that they will acknowledge the employees,” she said. “We want to be known as the hard workers that we are.”

Zach Gould / Daily Lobo Eyedea, center, and Abilities perform at the Paolo Soleri amphitheater in Santa Fe on Aug. 15. Their new album â&#x20AC;&#x153;By the Throatâ&#x20AC;? was released at the end of July.

by Hunter Riley Daily Lobo

Micheal Larsen, vocal artist for Eyedea and Abilities, said he and Gregory Keltgen, aka Abilities, are back on the road after taking a couple of years off from touring. Their new album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;By the Throat,â&#x20AC;? was released in July and has had a good response, Eyedea said. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a mix of talented turntable skills, thoughtful lyrics and freestyling with some rock â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; roll thrown in. The band opened up for Atmosphere at the Aug. 15 â&#x20AC;&#x153;When God Gives You Uglyâ&#x20AC;? tour at the Paolo Soleri in Santa Fe. Daily Lobo: How is the tour going? Micheal Larsen: Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been really great for us to be able to open up for Atmosphere again. When we first started touring, we toured as Eyedea and Abilities and Atmosphere sort of as one band. We went across the country and lost lots of money and developed a hatred for each other because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of a tough situation. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to be back touring where things are a lot more accommodating. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easier for us to all get along and be friends. When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing and for that hour thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of freedom there. But when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on the road thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s usually 23 other hours $ " $" "$ " $" ! ! # % $ ! " " % " #'" # " $! & $! # ! " $ ! " !" $ " #" & " $! #&

ML: A lot of it has to do with Atmosphereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s popularity. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re popular enough to where they can hire a really nice crew of friends to perform with. People treat you differently when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re an act that draws a lot more people.

ML: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve pretty much been touring since I was 17. I can remember the first time I toured, the second day I already felt like I was gone for a month. You fall in this zone where you have gaps in your head, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been doing it so long that even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a weekend it feels like a month.

New students: get to know your campus by Chris Quintana Daily Lobo

Hey, want to hear a few secrets about your University? Read on to learn what you need to know about the UNM campus. Parking — It’s an issue that vexes the majority of students. Just drive around UNM any time between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. and it’s a safe bet you won’t find a legal parking spot. And if you think for a minute you’ll get away with parking anywhere for free, think again. UNM’s parking and transportation services are constantly patrolling for violators, and they’re always quick to ticket offenders, even the five-minutes-justto-turn-in-a-paper ones. That’s because UNM is primarily a commuter school, and with only 2,400 students living on campus, the other thousands have to vie for parking spaces among the seven available lots. For those unlucky enough to have missed out on a permit, or have to park on

the south lot or Q lot, convenient oncampus parking costs $1.75 per hour, and is hard to come by. However, after 8:00 p.m., parking is free and plentiful. The best bet for the parking dilemma is to ride your bike or walk to school if possible. Otherwise, good luck. Johnson Center — Offers two gyms, three swimming pools, eight basketball courts, and a variety of fitness facilities for no cost to anyone with a valid UNM ID. The catch? Parts of the center are often closed to anyone not enrolled in a fitness class. While the facility is available during early morning hours, an hour during lunch, and from 5 to 10:45 p.m., it lacks the convenience to commuter students who have jobs after class or are unable to rise early enough to get to the gym. Student Gabe Garcia said last year he only had time to go to the gym during his lunch break. “We would go down to work out at the gym, and usually they only had

In order for you to work out, you had to make sure to get there for those 15 or 30 minutes they were open.” However, if you are willing to hang around UNM until the gym opens, or sign up for a weightlifting class, you really can’t beat a gym without a monthly fee.

Sedaris pokes fun at the dark side of life in ‘Flames’ by Hunter Riley Daily Lobo

There are few authors who can make readers laugh out loud, and David Sedaris does just that. The dark humor in his most recent book, When you are Engulfed in Flames, is an entertaining and thoughtful read that anyone with a sense of humor will enjoy. It’s a compilation of Sedaris’ creative non-fiction essays that have appeared in the New Yorker and on the NPR show This American Life. The book also includes some previously unpublished work. In Flames, Sedaris recalls moments from his childhood when he realized his interest in dead things. He used to dig up graves of old pets, just for fun. But that interest troubles him later on in life when his partner asks him to buy a full-sized skeleton for a birthday gift. Sedaris recalls being haunted by this skeleton and its blatant promise of mortality. “I’d be sitting in my office, gossiping on the telephone, and the skeleton would cut in, sounding like an international operator, ‘You are going to

die,’” he wrote in Flames. Sedaris has an eye for detail and the human condition that might escape most people, which allows him to find humor in the gross and strange. The most entertaining part of this book was his essay titled “The Smoking Section.” For anyone who has tried to quit smoking, Sedaris can bring some humor to an otherwise difficult and painful process. He takes quitting very seriously, so seriously that he flees to Tokyo for two months as a distraction to break up his smoking routine. He enrolls in a Japanese language course, but learning languages is not Sedaris’ strong suit. “It’s not just that I’m the worst student in the class, it’s that I’m clearly the worst student in the class, miles behind that former dope, Sang Lee,” Sedaris writes. “What makes it that much harder to bear is the teacher’s kindness, which has come to feel like pity. ‘You can keep your book open,’ Miki-sensei told me, but even that didn’t help.” What was most enjoyable about “The Smoking Section” was Sedaris’ subtle noting of cultural and linguistic

differences between American, Japanese and European people. While in Tokyo, he would find small mistakes on English signs. “A sign outside a beauty parlor reads ‘Eye Rash Tint,’ and instead of laughing, I should give them credit for at least coming close,” he wrote. Flames uses much of the same selfdeprecating style seen in Sedaris’ other books, such as Me Talk Pretty One Day and Naked. Though it’s largely lovable, some readers might find the style repetitive. But in his latest work, Sedaris does something a bit new by reminisc-

ing less about his childhood than he does in his other works. Flames focuses more on his middle-aged life in Normandy, his nutty neighbor in New York, his parents’ attempt at being art collectors and some random things he picked up along the way, including a pair of nylon underpants that come with a luscious fake bum attached to the back. Sedaris has a shamelessness that should be admired, and even if he might exaggerate details, it’s great to be entertained by a man who puts his worst gaffes out there for the world to read.

so bored and so sad. DL: Where are you from? ML: I’m from St. Paul, Minn. DL: Do you think not living in California or New York influences the type of music you make? ML: One of the things about that is the Twin Cities music scene. It’s so intense and incestual. The best improvisational jazz guys play with the best rock guys and the best rock guys play with the best hiphop guys. So, ‘incestual’ is the best way to describe it. It has all the artistic stuff that big cities have, but it’s still a small town in some ways. DL: How did you get so good at freestyling? ML: It’s the same with any instrument. You just have to learn how to open doorways in your head. Anybody can improvise anything. That’s really what we’re doing right now is improvising this conversation. That’s what improvising really is, you’re improvising your whole life. It’s just that you contain it in this little box and say this is just improvising music, then you’re going to start to say ‘Am I playing the wrong note, am I saying the wrong word’ and then you’re not free anymore. So the whole trick is attempting to find psychological freedom. And if you can’t then you improvise.

Coach keeps watchful eye on ailing secondary by Ryan Tomari Daily Lobo

George Barlow, the UNM football team’s cornerbacks coach, will have to perform some dentistry work on the Lobos’ secondary. He’ll have to fill some cavities. Most daunting are the holes left at the cornerback position. The secondary returns only three starters from last year’s roster. Key departures include the Lobos’ best two cornerbacks, DeAndre Wright and Glover Quin, though UNM still enlists the services of safeties Frankie Solomon, Ian Clark and Frankie Baca. However, Clark, the vociferous commander of the secondary, has missed much of training camp with a shoulder injury. He had off-season surgery to repair a torn labrum and re-injured it on Monday. He’ll miss at least a week of practice, but head coach Mike Locksley told the Albuquerque Journal that he is under the impression that Clark will attempt to play this season. Baca said the Lobos need Clark. “Ian is one of those guys who is an emotional leader for us and a

LSAT

big-time player for the entire team,” he said. “But we still are trying to do what we can to not lose any steps on defense without Ian and continue to be a good defense.” With Clark sidelined, Solomon, who was third on the team in tackles last year, has taken command of mentoring the younger cornerbacks and safeties. “It’s more of me having to teach rather then getting taught,” Solomon said. “With Glover and DeAndre, they helped mold me and let me know what was happening. Now, I am on the level of helping the young guys out and letting them know what is going on.” Under the tutelage of Barlow and the veterans, the inexperienced group has been making strides, Barlow said. “The kids are starting to learn the techniques we are trying to teach them, and it is starting to show up when the bullets are flying on the field,” Barlow said. “I think the unit is finally starting to take a step forward, but they still do have a long ways to go to become a much better defense.” One of the guys who impressed

Trails of dust particles swirl in the air, kicked up by the fury of their feet. Divots and indentations mark where they made their cuts. Fourteen years ago they came here, to this desolate field at a high school in the heart of Maryland with one goal in mind: mastering

the art of football. Eight individuals, the founding fathers, per se. Two of them would become coaches, one at UNM. Another couple reached the pinnacle of football — the NFL. Here is where J.B. Gerald, player and UNM coach, was molded, formed like salt water taffy — tugged to the brink of the human threshold.

Race a factor in PETA’s rebuke of Vick by Isaac Avilucea

COUPON COMPANION

at your UNM Bookstore, LoboCash & the Daily Lobo

Purgatory doesn’t exist for Michael Vick. In the eyes of PETA, there’s no place for him to be cleansed, “purged” of his transgressions — he belongs in one place. You know where. So Vick sponsored a dogfighting venture. So he assisted in the brutalization and killing of animals by hanging, drowning and electrocuting them. In this scrupulous society, we are all aware of Vick’s sins — sins that some say are far worse than any man has committed, sins that require the creation of a tenth circle in hell. Vick would have been better off had he killed a man under the influence of alcohol. You hear me, Donté Stallworth? But Vick committed the unforgivable: killing man’s best friend. So for that, PETA and secular society want an Act of Contrition. How’s this? For bankrolling the operation, he got two years in federal prison, and was indefinitely suspended by the NFL. His livelihood was taken from him. His contract endorsements were voided. His good name was tarnished — probably forever. He became the poster boy of dogfighting. And now this. Justice hasn’t been served. Oh, Vick’s already stood trial. We’re not talking about the federal case brought against him — that docket’s closed. But Vick’s still taking the stand in the court of public opinion.

His recent signing with the Philadelphia Eagles has been widely criticized, many people outraged that the City of Brotherly Love would offer this brother a shot at redemption. Justice isn’t (color) blind. That’s the reason so many repeat offenders are minorities. That’s the reason we can’t reintegrate convicted felons into society. That’s why those felons are blackballed back into a life of crime. It’s profitable to stigmatize them. There is a sector of business for crime. Eradicating it altogether would mean the loss of jobs, profit margins and a segment of the middle class. Desperation and crime are best friends, both funding a lucrative business. Want to talk about sin? Want to talk about something just as — if not more — barbarous and sickening as what Vick did? An intensive campaign by PETA and other animal rights activists has been launched. Its purpose: to keep Vick forever barred from the NFL. Let’s call it what it is: collusion. Watch the demonstrations that will take place when Vick finally takes the field. As he victimized those dogs, Vick should continue to suffer. Some say allowing him to return to football and make millions of dollars isn’t fair. Some sound logic that is. They’re neglecting the fact that it’s the only legal outlet Vick has. Four years ago, Vick was ranked 33 on Forbes’ list of Top 100 Celebrities. The cash flow was heavy. He has already established a standard of living. But because of his legal

woes and other financial mismanagement, he had to file for Chapter 11. Even after cutting a deal, he owes millions of dollars to creditors. Forcing him to work a low-paying job wouldn’t provide him a path to pay off his debt, leading to the onset of frustration. What’s that? At the intersection of frustration and desperation is a street, the road to perdition, and reentry into organized crime. Is that what we call a shot at redemption? Philly’s willingness to sign Vick means, for the most part, the lobbying has failed, though Vick’s conditional reinstatement was a concession on the part of the NFL to interest groups. While Vick can practice with the Eagles and participate in the final two games of the preseason, it’s unlikely he’ll suit up during Week 1. In fact, it could take as many as six weeks before Vick plays, depending on when commissioner Roger Goodell feels inclined to fully reinstate him. The point is this isn’t an eye-foran-eye situation. Allowing Vick to fall by the wayside again isn’t vindication for the deaths of those pit bulls. That’s what the prison time was for. But PETA wants Vick shackled for the remainder of his life. This isn’t a story about dogfighting. Or a narrative about Michael Vick. Race is always an element. Few of the dogs Vick and his boys bred at Bad Newz Kennels survived what’s called The Pit of Despair. For that, PETA wants to make sure Vick, a black man, never leaves it.

NEW MEXICO DAILY LOBO

Secondary

from PAGE 15

running on this powdery surface is nightmarish, just slightly better than standing barefoot on shards of shattered glass. Nonetheless, in this sanctuary, they gathered like monks in a monastery, completely tuned into their own channel, unaffected by outside influences. For seven hours theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d run drill after drill in the blazing sun and cramp-inducing humidity, neither of which were able to sap their enthusiasm. Just eight guys looking to improve, partaking in a boys-tomen transformation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those guys (I trained with) were better than some of the guys that I was playing against (at Colgate),â&#x20AC;? said Gerald, now the Lobosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; wide receivers coach. Here is where he learned. UNM is where heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll teach, looking to instill the same types of skills that made him successful. Gerald, the technique freak, wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the most physically gifted athlete. Moreover, he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that big for a wide receiver. Only 5 feet 10 inches tall, he was an anomaly, the antithesis of an imposing, long-limbed pass catcher. Thus he relied on technique like platform shoes to make up for his physical limitations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The biggest thing that The Stable taught me is that technique will

take you pretty far,â&#x20AC;? Gerald said. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d repeat drills, over and over, like scribbling the same sentence on a chalkboard, until it became muscle memory. Route definition, proper positioning of the hands, knowing assignments, being aware of everything around you â&#x20AC;&#x201D; those were the fundamentals Gerald strove to perfect, and the ones his stable of receivers will pick up at the University. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people have athleticism and can run fast and jump high,â&#x20AC;? Gerald said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But the great players are the guys that master the little things.â&#x20AC;? First off, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about staying one step ahead: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Studying your opponent, knowing what your opponent is going to do before he does it,â&#x20AC;? Gerald said. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the position where patience isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a virtue. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the difference between a 10-yard gain and a touchdown, where the amount of concentration needed to haul in a pass is proportional to the amount of concentration it took to split the atom. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being a wide receiver is a lifestyle,â&#x20AC;? Gerald said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right now, they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what it takes to get to that level of mastery. I tell these guys, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t watch those (pros) in the sense of mimic what they do. Understand that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re masters at

their craft, and it takes a lot of work to get to that level.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Above all, though, is higherbrain function. Why? Because Gerald, the scholar, is just as qualified â&#x20AC;&#x201D; if not more so â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to be a college professor than a college coach. Gerald has his masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree. He needs only to complete his dissertation to receive his Ph.D. from Penn State in educational leadership, which, depending on how his things go, he plans to finish when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done coaching. And principally, being a wide receiver requires you to outwit your opponent. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more Cranium than chess match, requiring equal parts aggression and read-and-react. UNMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s receivers must be savvy student-athletes, both with the playbook and the textbook. They must know when to break off routes and when to continue down the field. Know how to shed pesky, bumpand-run coverage and find the soft underbelly of the defense when teams employ zone coverage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It takes a lot of thought process,â&#x20AC;? said Lobo wideout Roland Bruno. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From the minute I line up until the middle of my route.â&#x20AC;? And with thinking comes knowledge, which down the road leads to mastery. Still, while Gerald stresses mastery, he understands, from a coach-

ing standpoint, he has much to learn. After a poor showing from his receivers on Thursday, Gerald was confronted by head coach Locksley, who chewed Geraldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hide. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a common thread he shares with his receivers. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being tutored to run like horses, to form their own stable. Gerald, on the other hand, has progressed. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now the trainer, guiding his horses toward the finish line â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but he still has to answer to the owner, Locksley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the head coach, and I have to get my guys playing,â&#x20AC;? Gerald said on Friday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the extent of it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a big deal at all. I love the guy. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the best coaches Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been around.â&#x20AC;? But he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have had an opportunity to coach with Locksley if it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t for The Stable. So he is forever grateful. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why he regularly goes back to his old stomping grounds, along with the seven other original members. In fact, he just visited in June, taking the time to fly back and talk to the kids who have taken up the saddle. Under the same name. Their legacy endures. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People see us and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;God, yâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;all still friends?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love those guys. Those guys are closer to me than some of my own family.â&#x20AC;?

At Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s practice, Paulsen once again came up with a big play. During seven-on-seven drills, Paulsen picked off a tip pass that bounced off of a linebackerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hand. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I saw an opportunity to make a play and I just happened to execute it,â&#x20AC;? Paulsen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was more luck than anything. It has been a lot of fun out here. You know, a new program, a new coach â&#x20AC;&#x201D; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great. It will be exciting to see how we do as a team.â&#x20AC;?
