Although ASUNM President Caroline Muraida hired 35 people this summer to fill student posi-tions on various University boards and committees, 20 positions have yet to be filled, meaning the stu-dent voice is still silent on some aspects of the University.
Muraida said that throughout the summer, she held more than 100 hourlong interviews and that, as part of her presidential du-ties, she needs to continue to fill the empty board and committee positions.
“It’s a personal passion of mine to link people to resources,” she said. “And it’s the responsibility of this office, not just the executive branch but as an organization as a whole, to make sure that the stu-dent voice is heard.”
Some of the student positions that have yet to be � lled include posi-tions in Faculty Senate Committees, such the Athletic Council committee and the Scholarship committee, and Student A� airs Committees, such as the KUNM Radio Board and the Stu-dent Publications Board.
Article I Section 3 of the ASUNM Law Book contains lan-guage that explains executive du-ties. This section mandates that the president of ASUNM “will be responsible for making ap-pointments to various positions throughout the government dur-ing their term.”
Muraida said one of her prima-ry goals is to ensure that students fill the positions available so that the student voice is represented as much as possible on campus. She said student positions need to be filled before the student body can request additional student repre-sentation on campus.
“You can’t have a discussion about the future without having an understanding about the pres-ent,” she said. “Before we can say ‘this is what we want’ as far as ex-tended representation, we need to really acknowledge where we are and utilize the opportunities we’ve already been given.”
Muraida said that although filling positions is one of her pri-mary goals, she can’t say wheth-er this was a primary goal of past ASUNM presidents. She said she has used experiences and hiring practices from past presidents to evaluate the issue and move for-ward with hiring.
During her term, former ASUNM President Jaymie Roybal never discussed with the Daily Lobo that filling student positions

Eight UNM students spent the summer preparing to interact di-rectly with national leaders and policymakers at a public-policy conference in Las Cruces.
� e 2012 Domenici Public Pol-icy Conference, which will take place on Sept. 19 and 20, includes 20 student panelists, eight of whom are UNM students.
� e student panelists will dis-cuss topics such as national se-curity and entrepreneurship with various speakers, including politi-cal consultant James Carville, ad-viser to former President George W. Bush Karen Hughes, Colorado Rockies owner Linda Alvarado, former New Mexico Republican Rep. Heather Wilson and former New Mexico Democratic Rep. Mar-tin Heinrich.
The UNM students chosen to participate are Jake Wellman, Sunny Liu, Richard Baca, Iric Guthrie, Mark Kunzman, Keioshiah Peter, Ehben Reed and Lauren Salvato. They will have 15 minutes to ask questions of their assigned panel speakers after each hourlong speech.
Vice president of ASUNM and student panelist for the Linda Alvarado panel Sunny Liu said the panel is an opportunity for students to communicate with national leaders. Each group, which includes three or four students,
works together to research its assigned speaker and formulate questions to ask after each speech.
“It promotes awareness of na-tional and global issues and prob-lems that we will have to face in the future and makes us more prepared,” Liu said. “I think it will give some insight and ideas about those who have pioneered or burned a trail for us about some of their ideas and experiences and a projection about what the future will hold.”
Liu said panelists were told to prepare for the discussion in advance by having a solid grasp of the wide range of issues the speakers could cover because the discussions may change focus. To prepare, his group gathered as much information as possible to have a well-rounded understand-ing of the speaker’s ideas, choices and actions.
“It’s almost impromptu in a sense, but it’s also structured with specific topics regarding our na-tion,” he said. “You have to be able to go with the flow of the conver-sation, so once you ask your initial question, if the topic sort of trails off in a different direction, you need to be able to pick up on that new subject and continue with re-lated questions. You need to be able to think on your feet.”
Liu‘s panel chose to focus on Alvarado’s stance on green build-ing, issues regarding political stances taken by the food industry and how she has overcome social issues as a Hispanic female in an executive position.
“We delved into research about our speaker extensively to find out some of her specific interests and to find some topics that might procure interest,” he said. “And we took some certain aspects of
her career and her life and her experiences to formulate some questions as well.”
Student regent and student panelist Jacob Wellman, who is the only UNM student invited to the conference for the second time, said he sits on the panel for Wilson and Heinrich. He said that last year, he sat on the panel for Norm Augustine, retired chair-man and chief executive officer of the Lockheed Martin Corpora-tion, the nation’s largest defense contractor, and discussed issues about the federal budget.
“There were a lot of discus-sions about how we solve our na-tion’s fiscal crisis,” he said. “We talked about the future of the Uni-versity and public support for the University and getting scientific research from the University out to the public.”
Wellman said he enjoyed hav-ing the opportunity to discuss na-tional issues and policy with his peers and that the conference allows students to interact with policymakers and speakers and formulate debate.
“It’s an opportunity to tap into their knowledge about the state of New Mexico. It’s going to be excit-ing,” he said. “It was just incredi-ble to have all of these people in-terested in public policy and be able to talk about that in a really exciting and engaging way. The students are awesome.”

on University boards and committees was one of her goals.
Muraida’s hiring strategies in-clude using staff and faculty List-servs, advertising in the Daily Lobo and through ASUNM social media sites, tabling and attend-ing Greek life and residence halls.The law book only mandates that “the President shall advertise for all available positions in the New Mexico Daily Lobo and in the ASUNM office.”
Muraida said one of the major reasons students aren’t involved in campus boards and commit-tees is that information about available positions is not easily accessible. She said students of-ten assume they have to be af-filiated with ASUNM in order to serve on a board or committee.
She began the process of filling the empty positions by organizing the information on the ASUNM website so that it is more accessible
to students and clearly de� nes which positions are available and what each position entails.
“The way that I’m organizing it (on the ASUNM website) is a little more digestible for the Universi-ty community,” she said. “People always say that the student voice isn’t heard throughout the Uni-versity, well one of the first steps is finding out what we really do have structurally, before we say we need more.”

Editor,
The first week of the 2012 fall semes-ter is in full swing. Grab a slice at Saggios, catch a tan at the Duck Pond and invite your friends over to celebrate the victory of knowledge with a cold one — assuming that you’re 21, of course.
In true lawyer fashion, allow me to shatter this Zen moment with a legal dis-claimer: what happens when a cold one becomes a six-pack? By hosting a “get to-gether,” are you potentially liable for the damages caused by your guest’s DWI?
The short answer is yes.In New Mexico, the Liquor Liability Act
holds that a social host who recklessly pro-vides alcohol to a guest is liable for the damages resulting from the intoxication.
Nevertheless, two requirements must be present before a social host faces liabil-ity for their guest’s actions.
First requirement: a guest/host relationship must be established for a host to face liability. In New Mexico, the common factors to determine if this relationship is present include “exclusive” or “superior control” over the guest’s access to alcoholic beverages, including: (1) the ability to deny the guest a drink if they become noticeably intoxicated, (2) actual knowledge of the guest’s intoxication and (3) actual knowledge that the guest will be driving later.
The first hurdle is satisfied when the host has complete control over the guest’s
supply and access to alcohol. The gray area occurs when guests bring their own alcohol or have independent access to al-cohol. In these situations, it is more diffi-cult to establish the necessary guest/host relationship.
Assuming that the first requirement is met, the second requirement is to establish that the host provided the alcoholic bever-ages in a reckless manner, disregarding the rights of others.
Recklessness is defined by New Mexico law as “the intentional doing of an act with utter indifference to or conscious disre-gard for a person’s (right of safety).” More-over, New Mexico law also holds that the facts must illustrate the host knew that the individual was too intoxicated to drive or to have another drink. Negligence isn’t enough. The facts must show actual knowl-edge or that the host should have known the guest’s level of intoxication.
Here are some suggestions to limit po-tential liability:
1. Make events at your home B.Y.O.B.2. Make nonalcoholic beverages, food
and water readily available.3. Never continue to serve guests who
are obviously intoxicated.4. Stop serving alcohol toward the end
of the evening.5. If any guest appears too intoxicated to
drive, call a cab, designate a driver to take them home or allow them to sleep at your home.

COLUMN
by Will ThomsonDaily Lobo columnist
Currently, almost 90,000 Albuquerque residents — or 15.7 percent — live in pov-erty. The many who live on minimum wage add to these ranks.
Recently, a group of associated organi-zations turned in 25,000 signatures to the City Clerk’s Office to try to raise Albuquer-que’s minimum wage by putting the issue on the ballot. If the measure were ratified, it would increase the minimum wage to $8.50 and keep it consistent with the ris-ing cost of living. It would also ensure that tipped workers would receive 45 percent of the minimum wage.
This measure would greatly help the many hardworking individuals and families who have struggled to survive on the $7.50 wage. Those working 40 hours a week for this wage earn just $15,600 annually, a fig-ure that is barely above the federal poverty line for a family of two and well below for a family of three.
� is situation is worse for the many tipped workers in Albuquerque, whose hourly pay is a staggering $2.13. While it is required that these low wages be made up for in tips, this requirement is not often followed. Addition-ally, the low tipped wage also disproportion-ately a� ects women because women � ll a majority of tipped positions, particularly in the restaurant industry.
Most of us have experienced the hard-ship of having a minimum-wage job and know how difficult it is to make ends meet on such a wage. Not only does a low mini-mum wage put a burden on working fami-lies and individuals, it hurts taxpayers. One in five New Mexicans receives food stamps, higher than the national average of one in seven. Surely many of those collecting food stamps are doing so because their hour-ly wage of $7.50 is not enough to support themselves or their families.
Many living on the minimum wage uti-lize the support of other government-fund-ed programs, such as Medicaid, to get by. Thus, when the minimum wage is not liv-able for working people, taxpayers must fill the gap.
Despite this reality, some have criticized the effort to increase the minimum wage. One op-ed in the Albuquerque Journal op-posed the measure because it could create obstacles for entrepreneurs in Albuquer-que, and minimum-wage earners can sim-ply rely on government programs like food stamps and Medicaid to supplement their income. Such arguments can be quickly dismissed.
First, Santa Fe is a strong example of a city with a growing business market as well as a high minimum wage, the highest minimum wage in the country. Second, the notion that relying on emergency government welfare programs, such as food stamps, should be a normal part of surviving on minimum wage is ridiculous. This is just shifting the bur-den from businesses to taxpayers, who, as discussed earlier, pay more when the mini-mum wage is not a livable wage.
Often in tough economic times, work-ing people are neglected. The measure to raise the minimum and tipped wages in Al-buquerque would help many of those res-idents struggling to make ends meet and would keep the minimum wage from con-tinuing to stagnate.
If this measure does make it on the bal-lot, it is my hope that voters go to the polls and make their voices heard on the issue.
Raise wages to lift city’s residents out of poverty
LETTERSParty on, but don’t end up liable for friend’s DWI
Editor,
Republicans continuously claim that President Obama and the Democrats are “driving the bus off the cliff.” This week, Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) and Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-Kan.) have driven the bus off the moral cliff. If one can imagine a woman who has suffered a terrifying rape magical-ly shutting her reproductive system down to prevent a rape-induced pregnancy and a naked swim in the holy Sea of Galilee not being offensive, then you have a much bet-ter imagination than I.
Rep. Akin’s absurd and rather delusion-al comment may just be a symptom of the GOP “War on Women.” There is an under-lying disrespect and disregard for women and their individuality in ideas and choic-es that marks the current Republican Party. Whether it is Paul Ryan’s vote against equal pay for women, Akin’s theory of female magical powers or Rush Limbaugh’s claim that all college students who seek contra-ception are sluts, the Republican Party clearly feels that women are not capable of making their own choices in their own best interests and are morally inferior to men.
Perhaps it’s these representatives of the Republican Party who are morally inferi-or, not judging just by their actions but by their votes.

Former boxing champion Johnny Tapia died from heart disease and high blood pressure and not from a drug overdose, his widow said Wednesday.
Speaking during a press confer-ence at the late boxer’s Albuquerque gym, Teresa Tapia said that an autop-sy report showed that the death was accidental and was a result of heart problems and the onset of Hepatitis C, likely from the many tattoos the boxer had.
Teresa Tapia shared the newly re-leased autopsy report with reporters at a press conference and said she was doing it to dispel the myth that her husband, who had struggled with cocaine abuse in the past, died in May after using illegal drugs.
“This (report) shows that he did not die of a drug overdose,” Teresa Tapia said. “It doesn’t make the pain go away, but I felt I needed to say that.”
Investigators found one Hydro-codone tablet, a painkiller, on the
floor beside his body. They said there were no indications of an overdose or alcohol use, but that the 45-year-old former fighter likely developed med-ical complications from past illegal drug use.
Teresa Tapia said her husband was taking medication for his bipolar dis-order and for his high blood pressure.
Sam Kassicieh, the boxer’s former personal physician and friend, said after reading the report he believe that Johnny Tapia’s use of illegal drugs probably played a role in his death, but that it was not the sole reason. Ask if there was anything Johnny Tapia could have done to prevent his death,
Kassicieh said no.“His blood pressure was under
control,” said Kassicieh, who saw Johnny Tapia four days before his death. “Nothing could have been done.”
Johnny Tapia won several cham-pionships in three weight classes, winning the WBA bantamweight title, the IBF and WBO junior ban-tamweight titles and the IBF feather-weight belt.
But his life was also marked by tragedy. He was orphaned at 8, his mother stabbed 26 times with a screwdriver and left to die.
During his professional career, he was banned from boxing for 3 1/2 years in the early ‘90s because of his cocaine addiction.
And in 2007, he was hospitalized after an apparent cocaine overdose.
Teresa Tapia said she believed that not only had his past drug abuse caught up to him but also the pres-sures of his hard life. “I think his heart was so big, it just stopped,” she said.
She said a documentary and a feature film about Johnny Tapia’s life are in the works.

Video spurs beef backlashby Tracie Cone
The Associated Press
FRESNO, Calif. — The federal government and McDonald’s Corp. suspended purchases of meat Wednesday from a California slaughterhouse under investigation for animal cruelty and possible health issues.
The fast-food chain joined the U.S. Department of Agriculture in severing ties with Central Valley Meat Co.
The suspensions occurred after an animal welfare group’s covert video showed cows that appeared to be sick or lame being beaten, kicked, shot and shocked in an attempt to get them to walk to slaughter.
“There are behaviors in the vid-eo which appear to be unaccept-able and would not adhere to the standards we demand of our sup-pliers,” McDonald’s said in release.
Federal officials say nothing they have seen so far in the video shows meat from cows that may have been sick made it into the food supply, but interviews with employees were ongoing.
The video was shot in June and July by an undercover operative for the group Compassion Over Kill-ing who worked at the plant and also gave a written statement to the USDA about events not on tape.
“We do know that workers were trying to make nonambulatory cows not eligible for slaughter go to slaughter,” said Erica Meier, execu-tive director of the animal welfare organization. “We believe red flags are raised for sure with our video, but it’s up to the USDA to decide.”
It’s against the law to slaughter a nonambulatory animal for food out of concern that it could be in-fected with bovine spongiform en-cephalopathy, also known as mad cow disease.
The Hanford slaughterhouse is in the same city where a dairy cow at a rendering plant was discovered in April to have mad cow disease. The USDA said earlier this month it was an isolated case and didn’t pose a threat to the food supply.
Central Valley Meat Co. primar-ily slaughters dairy cows that have lost their value as milk producers.
The USDA bought 21 million pounds of beef from the company in
2011 for the national school lunch and other federal food programs.
Records show the government made five large-scale purchases of ground and chunk beef, spending more than $50 million of the total $135 allocated by the government for such acquisitions that year.
USDA spokesman Justin De-Jong said he did not know to which government food programs the beef was allocated. The meat gen-erally goes to the national school lunch program and food distribu-tion on Indian reservations, and is available for discount purchases by community food banks.
“The department works to en-sure that product purchased for the federal feeding programs meets stringent food safety stan-dards and that processors com-ply with humane handling reg-ulations,” the USDA said in a statement.
McDonald’s also said it had suspended purchases of meat from the slaughterhouse. The company did not immediately say how much meat it had been buy-ing. But a spokesman for the chain said the percentage of meat pur-chased from the slaughterhouse was in the single digits.
Regional fast-food chain In-N-Out Burger previously suspended purchases after learning of the al-legations of inhumane treatment.
The New York Times reported that Costco Wholesale Corp. also suspended purchases. That com-pany did not immediately return a call from The Associated Press seeking comment.
The USDA acted quickly to shut down Central Valley Meat Co. on Monday after the video documented the treatment of dairy cows.
The video appears to show workers bungling the slaughter of cows struggling to walk and even stand. Clips show workers kicking and shocking cows to get them to stand and walk to slaughter.
The video prompted the Na-tional Cattlemen’s Beef Associa-tion to issue a statement.
“We firmly believe that those knowingly and willfully commit-ting any abuse to animals should not be in the business — period,” Dave Daley, a professor at Cali-fornia State University, Chico,
said in the statement released by the marketing group. “The actions depicted in these videos are dis-graceful and not representative of the cattle community.”
Central Valley Meat Co. has referred all questions to a public relations firm that issued a state-ment saying Central Valley Meat is cooperating with investigators and developing a plan to remedy any potential violations of USDA guidelines.
“Based on our own investiga-tion and 30 years of producing safe, high-quality US beef, we are confident these concerns pose no food safety issues,” the statement said.
The video shows one man standing on the muzzle of a downed cow. Other footage de-picts cows struggling after being repeatedly shot in the head with a pneumatic gun.
Federal regulations say slaugh-terhouses must be successful with a single shot.
Other clips show cattle with udders so swollen they are un-able to keep their legs under them to walk, and workers trying to lift downed cattle using their tails.
Compassion Over Killing also provided the video to the district attorney’s office in Kings County, where the plant is located. The of-fice is following the federal inves-tigation before deciding whether to file state cruelty charges.
The case has attracted the at-tention of Temple Grandin, a pro-fessor of animal science at Colora-do State University and subject of a documentary about her life work-ing with livestock behavior issues while she struggled with autism.
In a release distributed by the American Meat Institute, she said some video clips of cows twitch-ing after being shot in the head with a pneumatic gun are normal reflexes, but she did note some problems.
“I did observe some overly ag-gressive and unacceptable use of electric prods with nonambula-tory cattle and in sensitive areas like the face,” she wrote. “I would classify this as egregious animal abuse.”

LOS ALAMOS, N.M. — Nuclear watchdogs are fighting a proposal to ship tons of plutonium to New Mexico, including the cores of nuclear warheads that would be dismantled at an aging and structurally questionable lab atop an earthquake fault zone.
Opponents voiced their oppo-sition at a series of public hear-ings that opened this week on the best way to dispose of the radioactive material as the federal government works to reduce the na-tion’s nuclear arsenal.
The Department of Energy is studying alter-natives for disposing of plutonium in light of fed-eral budget cuts that have derailed plans for new multi-billion-dollar facil-ities at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina.
The preferred plan under con-sideration calls for the shipment of 7.1 metric tons of so-called pits — or cores — of an undisclosed num-ber of nuclear warheads now stored at the Pantex plant in West Texas to Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico and the Savannah Riv-er Site for disarmament and pro-cessing into fuel for commercial nuclear reactors.
The plan also calls for another 6 tons of surplus plutonium to be buried at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant in Carlsbad, N.M. That proposal has raised concerns about whether that waste would take up space needed for disposing of thousands of barrels of low-level radioactive waste that have been sitting for years above ground at a
Los Alamos dump.Potential threats from that
waste drew attention when a mas-sive wildfire lapped at lab property in 2011.
During the initial hearing Tues-day night in Los Alamos, activists questioned the safety of bringing more plutonium to the 1970s-era Los Alamos lab known as PF-4. A federal oversight board has said the facility remains structurally unable to safely withstand a major earth-
quake. The lab was built over fault lines that were later found to have the potential for more severe earth-quakes than previously thought.
Additionally, the Defense Nu-clear Safety Facilities Board recent-ly said officials had significantly underestimated how much radia-tion would be released if there were a major earthquake and fire at Los Alamos.
Activist Greg Mello, executive director of the Los Alamos Study Group, said he couldn’t understand why using the lab was a preferred option “when these very basic problems have not been resolved.”
“We are talking about a very large new mission, a type of mis-sion for which this building was not designed,” he said during the hearing.
Mello said the government
should simply look at ways to safely bury the plutonium.
David Clark, a chemist and plu-tonium expert at the lab, countered that the facility is ideally suited for the project.
“They are disassembling pits to-day,” he said. “They are doing it right now. It is already part of the mis-sion. ... They have the knowledge.”
Clark said he worked at the lab for 10 years and has no concerns about safety. And like other top lab
officials have said, the PF-4 building is where he would want to be in an earthquake, Clark said.
He said he was not al-lowed to say how many pits would be involved in the plan, or how much plutoni-um is currently handled at the lab. He believes that tak-ing the surplus plutonium to PF-4 would have little im-pact on lab operations.
“This is not going to make a dent,” he said.
Clark said the mission is to en-sure the plutonium can never again be used in a nuclear weapon, so creating the so-called MOX fuel is the best option.
“MOX is a proven fuel that is used around the world, in a variety of reactors,” he said. “Storing pluto-nium in glass or ceramic in canis-ters or underground will not reduce the global inventories. As a chem-ist, such waste forms may slow me down, but I can still recover the plu-tonium. The only one of these op-tions that will destroy plutonium ... or make it unsuitable for weapons ... is to burn it in a nuclear reactor.
Another hearing is scheduled Thursday in Santa Fe, and a third Tuesday in Carlsbad.
“We are talking about a very large new mission, a type of
mission for which this building was not designed,”

by Hamza Hendawi The Associated Press
BEIRUT — Syrian regime forces shelled two central Damascus districts Wednesday before troops backed by tanks swept through to carry out house-to-house raids, killing at least 35 suspected rebels, in a major flare-up of fighting in the Syrian capital, activists said.
In a particularly hard-hit north-ern district, activists said they dis-covered dozens of bodies that appeared to have been shot execu-tion-style. Such gruesome reports have become increasingly com-mon in recent months as the civil war has taken on heavy sectarian undertones.
The capital is one of many fronts President Bashar Assad’s regime is struggling to contain as the 17-month-old rebellion against his rule gains strength.
Government forces are also en-gaged in a major battle for control of the northern city of Aleppo as well as smaller scale operations in the country’s south, east and center.
On the diplomatic front, a senior U.N. official said Iran’s arms sup-plies to Syria violated U.N. sanc-tions. France also indicated it has provided the rebels with commu-nication and protection equipment but cautioned against foreign inter-vention without a U.N. mandate.
A prominent opposition figure, meanwhile, rejected as “more lies” comments by a senior Syrian official that Damascus would be willing to discuss Assad’s resignation but only after the opposition agreed to join in negotiating a peaceful settlement.
“As for his resignation, making his resignation a condition for dialogue effectively makes holding such a dialogue impossible,” said the official, Deputy Foreign Minister
Qadri Jamil. “During the negotiating process any issues can be discussed, and we are ready to discuss even this issue.”
Reached in Turkey, Adib Shishak-ly of the Syrian National Council, a key umbrella opposition group, said: “It’s the first time that we hear such talk, but it’s difficult to believe. We have grown accustomed to the regime’s lies.”
Around dawn Wednesday, re-gime forces in Damascus rained mortar shells on the upscale Kafar Soussa area — home to the foreign ministry, the prime minister’s of-fice and several foreign embassies — and adjacent Nahr Eishah, activ-ists said.
The attacks may have been de-signed to kill or capture rebel mortar teams who have used the two neigh-borhoods in recent days to target the city’s strategically located Mazzeh military airport, activists said.
The British-based Syrian Obser-vatory for Human Rights said at least
24 people were killed in Kafar Sous-sa on Wednesday and fierce battles were raging in an area just outside the neighborhood.
An activist in Kafar Soussa reached on Skype corroborated the Observatory’s findings. He also spoke on condition of anonymity because he feared reprisals. The re-ports could not be independently verified. Earlier, an activist who only wanted to be identified by the name Bassam for fear of retribution, said as many as 22 tanks stormed Kafar Soussa with about 20 soldiers on foot behind each one. He spoke via Skype from Damascus.
Bassam and the Observatory also reported heavy government shell-ing of Nahr Eishah early Wednes-day. They said regime forces then searched houses for rebels. Bas-sam said as many as 12 people were killed in Nahr Eishah, while the Ob-servatory put the death toll at eight, saying they were all men shot dead by troops.
Fighting persists in Damascus

CultureVintage Vespas
A lone mechanic revs the engine of a red, dirt-spattered scooter as fumes pour from the muffler into every crevice of the dark garage. He reaches into the depths of the engine, checking the nuts and bolts, and twists the handlebar, a cigarette crushed beneath his boot. Meet the “Vespa Whisperer,” aka “Sweet pea.” Or you can just call him Sean Campbell.
Campbell is the co-founder, co-owner and primary mechanic of Blue Smoke Garage, an alter-native-transportation repair shop that focuses on vintage scoot-ers from the ‘50s to the present. Campbell primarily does tuneups and repairs, although the shop sells a few bikes for commission.
Scooters consume less gas and are easier to ride than motorcycles. Most of the scooters Campbell repairs are used for transportation, although some are race bikes and one was designed for driving down mountain trails to hunt elk and javelinas.
Campbell said many people buy old scooters because it is fair-ly simple to install a motor that is more powerful than the one the bike came with.
“It’s not only being able to switch engines, it’s really a love for vintage styling or the vintage machine,” he said. “When I got into scootering, the vintage bikes were a lot cheaper than buying a brand new bike. I was able to work on them myself; I was able to get parts for them that were more in my budget.”
The shop is a year and a week old, and Campbell said he receives more work than he expected to get when he opened the shop. There is currently a two-week waiting list for scooter repairs.
“We are getting a lot of work from other people because they’ve had problems with the other shops, and I’m not saying any names, but the customers show up here and then they get it � xed,” shop manager James Landry said. “If anybody can get it � xed, Sean can.”
Every customer in the shop on Tuesday said the reason he or she bought a scooter was because of the gas mileage the vehicles get — usually around 75 mpg. But Landry said he likes them for more than their fuel efficiency.
“They’re a lot lighter, so you can just drive like a moron some-times,” Landry said. “Zipping in and out, I love it. I love the fact that you can toodle on UNM cam-pus. The first time I saw it I was like ‘You can’t do that, can you? I’m not walking to class — I’m just going to park right here.’”
Landry said he has driven down the Yale Parking Structure at night, cutting corners, and the
security guards don’t mind. Plus, Campbell said many peo-
ple who don’t want to ride motor-cycles will get a scooter because the center of gravity is lower, mak-ing it more comfortable.
“It’s more user-friendly. A lot of people are scared of big bikes, and it’s a psychological thing mainly, but they are,” Landry said. “More people on two wheels is less congestion, and scooters, I think, are that stopgap that’s going to bring more people onto two wheels and use less gas, and that’s stuff we’ve got to start thinking about as a country.”
Landry, a UNM student study-ing fine arts, said he would like to open his own custom scooter shop where he will add artistic flair to bikes. He said the Japanese artist Chicara Nagata, who spends about 7500 hours handcrafting one motorcycle, is his hero. And the art is not static.
“This isn’t just a statue or a replica or anything like that; it’s a motorcycle that’s wicked fast and if you see it, you don’t even have to like motorcycles, you’re like ‘What was that?’” he said. “They’re just beauty.”
Nagata’s bikes can cost up to $1 million, but Landry said vintage bikes are still artistic and more af-fordable. So why buy an old bike if you can get a new one for the same amount of money?
“The thing about vintage is they’re steadily increasing in val-ue,” Landry said. “As soon as you drive a new scooter or motorcy-cle off the lot, the value drops, almost by half sometimes. If you take care of a good old bike, the value only increases. New bikes are only worth less and less and less every year.”
And the “Vespa Whisperer” should be in Albuquerque for a while.
“Sean’s a great mechanic, he really is, he’s probably the best person toodling with scooters around here,” Landry said. “I’ve held up parts before in a baggie and he’s like ‘That’s for a 1969 small frame.’ I’m like ‘How do you do that?’ It’s a bolt. It looks like a bolt to me.”

Vintage Vespasby Nicole Perez
Sean Campbell, co-founder and co-owner of Blue Smoke Garage, learned how to service his scooter by trial and error. He bought his � rst scooter after college and bought his � rst vintage scooter, a model from 1962, o� eBay.
“It was kind of going along with the scene I was in, the ska and punk scene; they were very much vintage-geared,” he said. “Vintage clothing, vintage music even, so it went along with vintage bikes.”
Campbell, an Albuquerque na-tive, used to race other vintage bik-ers in Denver, revving up to speeds as fast as 90 mph. He said he wears a full leather out� t, helmet, boots and gloves, so racing injuries are minimal.
“You’re not protected by walls, and I have been down many times. I just slide out or skid out or overcompensate on a turn, no serious damage,” he said. “� e worst injury I had was a minor bit of road rash and a sprained pinkie. My clutch lever broke when I was coming o� a stoplight, and I popped
Scooter buff lives to race and repair
into a wheelie and fell over and slid onto the ground.”
Campbell said scooters have come in and out of fashion since the ‘80s. He said he thinks politics plays a major role in their popularity.
“� e political climate a� ects gas prices, but it also a� ects the way people think about how they’re get-ting around,” he said. “� e main scooter movement was in the ‘80s in the punk and ska scene, and re-surged in the ‘90s. You look at the presidents who were in at the times; you have Reagan, you have Bush Sr., and the most recent one really start-ed about six years ago with Bush Jr. I think that’s very relevant.”
Not only does Campbell repair, ride and race scooters, he also start-ed the Albuquerque chapter of the Pharaohs Scooter Club, an interna-tional vintage scooter club. People who want to ride with the club must earn a patch by performing menial tasks for established members.
“It doesn’t matter what you ride. With us it’s more about personal-ity than what you ride,” he said. “It’s only a little bit of hazing; it’s like a fraternity or sorority.”
Adria Malcolm / Daily LoboThe bathroom at Blue Smoke Garage is covered in motor oil and grease. Campbell said the grease washes o� their � ngers every night, so his hands aren’t permanently stained.

Sci-fi fans converge
by Antonio [email protected]
It’s the end of the world as we know it at this year’s Albuquerque science fiction convention, and sci-fi fans feel fine.
Bubonicon 44 is a three-day sci-ence fiction and fantasy conven-tion, featuring discussions, panels, book signings and readings from Brandon Sanderson, George R. R. Martin and 40 other published au-thors. With nearly 800 people ex-pected to attend the Mayan-cal-endar-themed event, writer and convention co-founder Robert Vardeman said science fiction’s steady rise in popularity is due to the genre’s speculative nature.
“The science fiction question we ask is ‘What if?’ and just go in with all sorts of questions,” Vardeman said. “I think most people enjoy science fiction because of that speculation —
Courtesy PhotoNew York Times best-selling author George R. R. Martin will give a reading at Bubonicon 44, science fiction and fantasy convention in Albuquerque this weekend. The Mayan-calendar-themed event could draw up to 800 sci-fi lovers to hear readings about aliens, alternate universes and more.
what is tomorrow going to be? This is, in an odd way, like going to a fortune teller, except maybe we’re a little more involved than someone holding a crystal ball.”
Vardeman created Bubonicon in 1969 as an attempt to gather other like-minded sci-fi writers
from the Southwest. When search-ing for an eye-catching name for his convention, Vardeman said he turned to a recent news story for inspiration. At the time, New Mexicans were denied entry into Egypt due to reported cases of bu-bonic plague in New Mexico. Var-deman said he embraced the odd local case, adding “con” at the end of the disease to complete the name of his convention.
Vardeman said he and co-founder Roy Tackett have enjoyed watching the event grow over the past 40 years.
“In an odd way, it was sort of like a small child when it started,” Vardeman said. “I’ve loved watch-ing it change from year to year. We can look over at three to four gen-erations who have come to the convention.”

Saberhagen said she has attended Bubonicon for the past 20 years.
“I entered the community by marriage,” Saberhagen said. “It opened me up to a new kind of literature; I was more of a clas-sics person.”
Saberhagen married science fiction writer Fred Saberhagen in 1968, and met Vardeman and countless other writers at every Bubonicon since. After Fred passed away five years ago, Saberhagen opened a publication company dedicated to republishing her husband’s earlier work.
Most recently, Saberhagen published “Golden Reflections,” an anthology that includes her husband’s original story, “Mask of the Sun,” and seven other novellas by current writers based on the fictional 16th-century Peruvian universe Fred created.
First-time presenter and writer T. Jackson King said science fic-tion has helped him look at situa-tions from different perspectives.
“When you get into your char-acter’s mind and into the world of your characters, it’s kind of like voluntary schizophrenia,” King said. “There’s part of you that kind of watches from the background; that is the writer part that types out the dialogue, the story and the
Bubonicon from page 14conflict. But there’s another part of you that’s living the story right along with the characters.”
King said his writing career sparked while he was working as an archaeologist in Colorado. He said what initially started as a faint idea soon grew into a sci-ence fiction epic about a group of aliens discovering Earth by the planet’s echoing radio waves. King said after weeks of contem-plation, he finally sat down, wrote his story from start to finish and then mailed it to a publisher.
It was rejected.King is more successful now
and has had seven books pub-lished, six of which are science fiction, but he said he writes to tell a story, not to make money.
“Most authors I know write as storytellers to share adventures with other readers,” he said. “If we get lucky and make a little bit of money, that’s nice, but no profes-sional writer I know ever expects to get rich or have a Hollywood movie made.”
Avid sci-fi reader and event volunteer Caci Gallop said she attended the science fiction convention for 10 years before finally volunteering at the event. Gallop said the annual convention helps authors create and sustain
Apple, Samsung slug it outby Paul Elias
The Associated Press
Jurors began deliberating Wednesday in a multibillion dol-lar patent infringement case pit-ting Apple against Samsung over the design of iPhones and iPads — but few experts were expecting a quick verdict.
After a three-week federal trial in San Jose, a jury of seven men and two women picked from a pool of Silicon Valley residents will try to decide if Samsung Electronics Co. ripped off Apple Inc. designs or whether Apple wronged Samsung.
With so much money and mar-ket clout at stake, a decision likely won’t come anytime soon, accord-ing to jury experts, attorneys and courtroom observers.
“This case has huge implications,” said University of Notre Dame Law Professor Mark P. McKenna. “It could result in injunctions against both companies” involving the sales of products.
It took the judge more than two hours to read the 109 pages of in-structions to the jury. As a verdict
is reached, jurors must fill out a 20-page form that includes dozens of check-off boxes.
“The verdict form is crazy,” said Karen Lisko, who runs a jury con-sulting company that specializ-es in patent trials. “It’s incredibly complicated.”
Jurors have several different smartphones and computer tablets in the jury room to help them de-termine which device is alleged to have violated what patent.
Apple argues that Samsung should pay the Cupertino-based company $2.5 billion for ripping off its iPhone and iPad technol-ogy when it marketed competing devices.
Attorneys for Samsung asked the jury to award it $399 million after claiming Apple used Sam-sung technology without proper compensation.
Lisko said it could take the jury an entire day just to devise a routine and system to sift through the facts and begin actual deliberations.
“The first day is usually very messy,” she said.
It took jurors more than a week
to reach a verdict in another major patent case, Google v. Oracle. That San Francisco panel decided in May that Google did infringe on Oracle’s patents related to the Java comput-er language, but the panel awarded no damages after it couldn’t come to a unanimous agreement on sev-eral other points.
During closing arguments Tuesday, Apple attorney Harold McElhinny said Samsung was having a “crisis of design” after the launch of the iPhone, and executives with the South Korean company were determined to illegally cash in on the success of the revolutionary device.
Samsung’s lawyer countered that the technology giant was sim-ply and legally giving consumers what they want: Smartphones with big screens. They say they didn’t vi-olate any of Apple’s patents and fur-ther claimed that Apple’s claimed innovations were actually created by other companies.
The case went to the jury after last-minute talks between chief executives failed to resolve the dispute.
relationships with their fans. “Musicians get to go on tours
and play their music one-on-one with their fans … it’s the same kind of concept when you get to hear an author read their book, what they’re going to publish next year,” Gallop said. “Just like any other art form — painting, music — exposure to the fans or fans’ exposure to the artist is ab-solutely critical.”

Students unearth Anasazi kivaby Greg Yee
The Associated Press
Researchers speculate that one of the largest Anasazi ruins in the area still lies buried by the banks of the San Juan River on Tommy Bolack’s B-Square Ranch.
San Juan College offers students and community members the op-portunity to participate in the active archaeological dig, uncovered each summer from the rocks and dust where the bluffs come to a point along the river bank.
It is unremarkable to the un-trained eye, but for program direc-tor Linda Wheelbarger, her students and Bolack, it offers an opportunity to change the way we think about San Juan County’s past.
The Totah Archaeological Proj-ect 2012 Field School completed excavation July 13 on the Point site, one of the only active Chacoan great kiva sites.
The six-week field school ses-sion, which is led by Wheelbarger, contributes to research on Chacoan Anasazi culture in the northwestern New Mexico area.
“It’s very exciting, working on this great kiva,” Wheelbarger said. “Most of these sites were excavated in the ‘20s and ‘30s, like the great kiva excavated in 1921 by Earl Morris at Aztec (Ruins National Monument).”
The dig unearthed more than 30 beads and a ring made of a coal-type material.
“I think that this (kiva) is a Chaco outlier, but I think that it was made by people that lived here rather than by people that came up from Chaco Canyon,” she said.
Although this find might seem meager to most people, Wheelbarg-er speculates that the great kiva at the Point site was the centerpiece
of a large settlement mirroring the ruins found at Chaco Canyon, and that many large sites may still lie buried where the San Juan River passes the bluffs.
“It was very interesting, having lived in this area all my life, but I didn’t know how rich it was,” intern Jacob Schirer said. “When I was lit-tle, I’d go to (Bolack’s) museum, but I didn’t know there were ruins out at the bluffs. There aren’t very many ki-vas in active excavation at this time, so it’s exciting to be able to say that I’m participating in one.”
Schirer said he’s been interested in archaeology from a young age, and that the most exciting part of being in the lab is piecing together fragments of vessels found at the Point site.
“The one I’m looking at now is corrugated, and it’s fun to see it come together into what it used to be,” he said. “It’s definitely an expe-rience I won’t forget.”
Wheelbarger said that despite the program’s cost of $623 for in-state students and $1,235 for out-of-
state students, the program remains lower than others.
The program recruits 24 field-school positions as well as 15 intern-ship positions. Interns are required to complete at least two weeks of work at the site or in the lab, write a journal and submit a 10-page re-search paper.
This year’s dig attracted 11 stu-dents and five interns this summer, three of whom are local.
“I try and do a complete field-school experience,” Wheelbarger said. “Most jobs are in (archeologi-cal) surveying, so I have my students do a lot of surveying. I take them on a lot of trips, to Mesa Verde, Chaco Canyon, Aztec Ruins and Salmon Ruins. We do a firing and make pots. We are expecting some wonderful artifacts on (his) ranch. Unfortu-nately those bluffs are made of very unconsolidated sandstone. It covers up the site during the winter.”
The Totah Archaeological Project arose out of Bolack’s discovery of his first Anasazi black-on-white bowl in an irrigation furrow in an onion field in 1959.
He first attempted to begin re-search and field-school possibilities on the B-Square Ranch in 1972, and he engaged in a dig until 1974 when funding ran out.
Bolack, in 1998, partnered with San Juan College and the Totah Archaeological Project was established a year later.
“They’re trying to restore (the kiva),” Bolack said. “According to the measurements, it might be bigger than the one in Aztec. We’re trying to dig it all the way. I’m hopeful that we may find something interesting out there. There’s quite a settlement there, underneath all that alluvial field. Who knows, there might be another Earl Morris (find).”

FOR YOUR EARSa monthly music preview
Exotic Animal Petting Zoo, Gobs of Flesh, Knucklez Deep, Prey for Kali, Dope Riddle
LaunchpadTuesday, Sept. 4 at 9:30 p.m.
$521+
Exotic Animal Petting Zoo plays music for fans of The Number Twelve Looks Like You, Fear Before the March of Flames and Really Loud Band with a Ridiculously Long Name. This quartet blends elements of heavy metal drum beats, noodling experimental guitar taps and throat-scratching screeches, courtesy of lead singer Brandon Carr.
For your consideration: “Through the Thicket … Across Endless Mountains” begins with an awkward stumble of guitars and screams, before catching its ground and running headfirst toward a soaring guitar solo.
Reel Big Fish, The Maxies, The Blue Hornets
Sunshine TheaterFriday, Sept. 7 at 8 p.m.
$1713+
Reel Big Fish is ska’s awkward old friend, like the one you had back in middle school. Sure, the two of you were close once, but nowadays you see them and they’re still singing the same old songs. Basically, if nostalgia is your thing, Reel Big Fish is for you.
For your consideration: If you’re one of the few people who didn’t hear “Take On Me” in the ‘90s, now’s a good time to catch up on this horn-heavy tune.
Orgone, DJ Chach, Dave 12
Low SpiritsThursday, Sept. 13 at 9 p.m.
$1021+
In a time when dubstep and club music reign supreme, Or-gone bravely steps up to the plate with a healthy dosage of funk. This eight-piece set of soul hits hard with percussion, trumpets and bass guitar.
For your consideration: “Cali Fever” strolls confidently with its keyboard strokes, supporting horns and a chorus of group vo-cals adding to the track’s heavy groove.
The Drunk Sluts, Colour Me Once, My Heart the Hero, Immortal Prophets, Society Unknown
Amped Performance CenterFriday, Sept. 14 at 6 p.m.
$10 at the doorAll ages
Local musicians play it out at this battle-of-the-bands event at Amped Performance Center. Among the many bands, The Drunk Sluts perform a brash take on early ‘90s punk music.
For your consideration: Rancid-inspired “Wagon Wheel” hits all the right crunchy notes, with a punk song that barks more than it bites.
Frank Turner & the Sleeping Souls, Larry & His Flask, Jenny Owen Youngs
LaunchpadSaturday, Sept. 22 at 8:30 p.m.
$1313+
When Frank Turner raises his fist in the air, he does so with an acoustic guitar in hand. Turner rattled UK listeners when he performed at the Summer Olympics opening ceremony, tak-ing up the mantel of Against Me! frontman Tom Gabel as an acoustic punk-rock legend.
For your consideration: Shouting “Come ye, come ye, to soulless corporate circus tops,” Turner’s performance of “I Still Believe” at the Summer Olympics opening ceremony sin-gle-handedly launched the musician to previously uncharted punk heights.
Sacrificial Slaughter, Madrost
The GasworksTuesday, Sept. 25 at 7 p.m.
Tickets at the doorAll ages
Performing a mess of guttural growls and chugging guitars, Sacrificial Slaughter tries its best to sound as brutal as its name implies. Variety is slim for this death metal band as it trudges from song to song through the same grimy drudge of double-bass pedal and shouts.
For your consideration: “The Sacrificial Right” has the band playing at its gloomiest, opening the track with a somber guitar before rushing into an indecipherable cacophony.
