Sta� ReportDaily Lobo

A campuswide e-mail sent out Aug. 27 gave some students the impression that the Campus O� ce of Substance Abuse Prevention would be disclosing the locations of DUI checkpoints.

“As a service to everyone, COSAP will be sending you notices of upcoming checkpoints throughout the year,” the e-mail stated.

Jill Anne Yeagley, COSAP program manager, said the message was misinterpreted.

“� e e-mail in question wasn’t a lot di� er-ent from e-mails we have previously sent to students, so I was surprised that it would be interpreted to mean we were going to provide checkpoint locations,” Yeagley said in a follow-up e-mail the next day.

Student Jonathan Bartlett said when he read the � rst e-mail he thought COSAP would release checkpoint locations.

“I actually thought that the initial (e-mail) was basically stating that they were going to tell us where to avoid, and I think that their re-traction was probably a realization that it was a mistake of what they said in the � rst place,” he said. “I don’t think they should have sent it out in the � rst place.”

Student Nathan Nelson said he didn’t ex-pect COSAP to release checkpoint locations.

“Well, they are warning them that they are out there,” he said. “Everyone knows that they are going to be out there.”

Yeagley said she got e-mails from students saying they were angry that COSAP would

release checkpoint locations.“COSAP wants to make it totally clear that

we will never provide anyone with information regarding the location of a DUI Checkpoint,” she said in the second e-mail. “Our purpose for advising you of this weekend’s checkpoint and any future ones is not to help you ‘beat them,’ but rather to give you one more reason to avoid drinking and driving.”

Yeagley said that instead of drinking and driving, students should pick a sober driver to take their friends to and from bars. � ey can also pitch in money for a cab ride.

“Other options include the city and coun-ty Safe Ride, which is a free cab ride home from any establishment as long as both are in Bernalillo County,” she said. “In the sum-mer, the Rapid Ride After Dark operates until 3 a.m.”

Yeagley said alcohol-related crashes are the leading cause of death among college stu-dents in the U.S.

� e New Mexico Department of Trans-portation reported in 2006 that 67 percent of motor-vehicle fatalities in the state involving young adults were alcohol-related.

Yeagley said even when there isn’t a crash involved, a DUI conviction can change a per-son’s life.

“First, there is the � nancial burden (ap-proximately $2,000), lost time and embar-rassment at having an ignition interlock,” she said. “Some individuals will lose their jobs or opportunities for promotions as a result of a conviction.”

Information Technology Ser-vices has changed the way stu-dents and community members access Lobo-WiFi.

Users now need to download a one-time policy key and use their NetID and password to connect.

Jane McGuire, IT strategic planner, said the policy key and a student’s NetID will give the user credibility to use the Internet.

“� e combination of that pol-icy key and your NetID … allows us to know who is on the network and that it’s UNM people using the network, because we’re not Star-buck’s,” she said. “We have sensi-tive information like your grades out there, and we need to pro-tect our information. � at’s why the network access control is tak-ing a step toward securing the network.”

� e technology used to veri-fy users is called Network Access Control, McGuire said. Guest us-ers without NetIDs still have lim-ited access to the Internet.

David Brancaccio is host of NOW, a weekly news and analysis program that airs on PBS. In April, Brancac-cio and his team were awarded the 2009 Walter Cronkite Award for Ex-cellence in Television Political Cov-erage. Brancaccio has appeared on CNBC, on CNN with Anderson Coo-per, and on MSNBC with Rachel Maddow. He has a bachelor of arts degree in history and African stud-ies from Wesleyan and a master’s degree in journalism from Stanford.

Daily Lobo: Before you started

on NOW on PBS, you had the op-portunity to work with Bill Moy-ers. How did that in� uence you as a journalist?

David Brancaccio: He is a truly

legendary � gure in our business and an incredible guy. I co-anchored with him for almost two years — in-credible experience. � ere is a fa-mous story that I saw I think in � ve di� erent history books about Presi-dent Johnson — the Civil Rights Act of 1964, signed by President John-son. So when I saw the story for the � fth time, same anecdote, I went to Bill Moyers and said, “So Bill, who is the source on that story? Who was there when the president was in his quarters? So Bill just kind of smiled at me like, ‘Well, you know, the pres-ident was in his bed and had the covers pulled up to his nose the way he did.’ It was clear that Moyers was

logging in each time to use the com-puter takes a little longer, but the added security is good because it deters community users.

“I think it’s effective for keeping people who just come on campus to use the Wi-Fi off campus, so it kind of reduces the traffic, but I also think it’s a little bit of a hassle for students trying to get online really quick to get information for a class or some-thing like that,” Knapp said. “It kind of takes up a little extra time, but overall I think it’s a good idea.”

Vernie Emerson, a CNM student, said she hasn’t noticed a difference in her Internet access.

Emerson said she uses the com-puters at UNM about three times a week. She said there is usually a wait to access the computers if you’re not a student.

“Sometimes there’s a long line of people waiting to use a comput-er,” she said. “During the day there isn’t a wait, but at night there are usually a lot more people, but (the library staff ) are good about mak-ing sure everyone gets time on the computers.”

McGuire said even with the in-creased security, IT has no inten-tion of monitoring what students are viewing through their laptops.

“There’s 65,000 active NetIDs at UNM, so we don’t have the re-sources to monitor what everyone

is doing, nor do we have the inter-est,” she said. “This is a university, a much more open environment.”

McGuire said these additional security measures are needed to protect the network connections from hackers.

“As network technology im-proves, people who hack the net-work also get smarter, and so we have to use more advanced tech-nologies to secure the network,” she said.

In addition to the increased se-curity, McGuire said Lobo-WiFi is more comprehensive throughout campus.

McGuire said 80 percent of classrooms on campus now have wireless access to the Internet. She said this is a part of the classroom modernization project, which is using $12 million to renovate classrooms and improve technol-ogy used in those classrooms.

In addition to this, the IT De-partment has also purchased licenses for all UNM com-munity members to download an-tivirus systems onto their laptops, McGuire said.

“We want to make sure that the machines that are accessing the network don’t have viruses on them and we don’t spread viruses through the network,” she said. “So we’re not passing viruses internally.”

Tripp’s dad spills more Palin gossipThe associated press

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Levi Johnston, the father of Sarah Pa-lin’s grandchild, said the former Re-publican vice presidential candidate wanted to adopt his child so that peo-ple wouldn’t know her 17-year-old daughter was pregnant.

In an interview with Vanity Fair, Johnston said Palin had a plan to deal with Bristol’s pregnancy.

“Sarah kept mentioning this plan. She was nagging — she wouldn’t give it up. She would say, ‘So, are you gon-na let me adopt him?’ We both kept telling her we were definitely not go-ing to let her adopt the baby. I think Sarah wanted to make Bristol look good, and she didn’t want people to know that her 17-year-old daughter was going to have a kid,” Johnston told the magazine for its October edition, which goes on sale Saturday. Excerpts of the interview were posted Wednes-day on the magazine’s Web site.

Meghan Stapleton, Palin’s spokes-woman, did not immediately respond to request for comment, but has pre-viously discounted Johnston’s allega-tions. Palin has been keeping a low profile since she resigned on July 26 with more than a year left in her first term.

A week after Republican presiden-tial candidate John McCain named Palin as his running mate, the cam-paign issued a statement that her un-wed daughter was pregnant. It also said Bristol, now 18, and the young man would marry.

Johnston, 19, lived in the house for two months awaiting the birth of the baby, Tripp, who was born in Decem-ber. The couple called off the wedding shortly after their son’s birth.

Since then, Johnston has com-plained in national interviews that the Palins have limited his access to the boy. He’s also said he’s pursuing a ca-reer as an actor or model.

Johnston said the Palin home in Wasilla was not what most people would think.

“The Palin house was much differ-ent from what many people expect of a normal family, even before she was nominated for vice president. There wasn’t much parenting in that house. Sarah doesn’t cook, Todd doesn’t cook — the kids would do it all them-selves,” Johnson told Vanity Fair.

Palin has four other children. The youngest, Trig, is 1 year old.

Johnston also repeated claims that Palin said she wanted to quit and write a book or host a TV show.

When Palin returned to Alaska fol-lowing McCain’s unsuccessful run for

president, she was different, Johnston said.

“Sarah was sad for a while. She walked around the house pouting. I had assumed she was going to go back to her job as governor, but a week or two after she got back she started talk-ing about how nice it would be to quit and write a book or do a show and make ‘triple the money.’

“She would blatantly say, “I want to just take this money and quit being governor,” Johnston said.

He also claims Palin is not the hockey mom or outdoorswoman she claims to be. He said she rarely attend-ed her oldest son’s hockey games, and asked Levi how to shoot a gun.

“She says she goes hunting and lives off animal meat — I’ve never seen it,” Johnston said.

Chuck Heath, Palin’s father, said his daughter has been out of Alaska for the past month writing her memoirs.

Later this month, the former gov-ernor is expected to appear at her first commercial speaking engage-ment during a visit to Hong Kong to address the CLSA Investors Forum, a well-known annual conference of global investment managers. Bill Clinton, Al Gore and Alan Green-span have spoken at the event, host-ed by brokerage and investment group CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets.

by Hadeel Al-EssaDaily Lobo guest columnist

It’s my first week at UNM, and I am de-termined to make a friend. I made it into a Ph.D. program. Certainly I am capable of making a friend.

My family calls, concerned, and I reas-sure them by changing the subject.

“My adviser is amazing. He showed me all around the campus,” I say. Or, “Yes, my new professor is from South Africa. Isn’t that interesting?”

I manage to distract them, yet I remain a bit concerned myself. I sit on the shuttle, looking out the window. During breaks be-tween classes, I call friends in other states and ask them if they hear the fountain of water in the background. “It’s such a beau-tiful campus,” I say.

When I go home, I decide it’s time I take matters into my own hands. Making a friend is something I have to work toward. Smiling would only take me so far. I decide to e-mail the Office of International Programs and Students. The e-mail starts like this: “I am a new student, and because I was born in the U.S., I am not considered an international student, but I am looking to meet people.” I add their group to my Facebook, so that I’ll be notified of events.

Within a day or two, I get a phone call from a local number. I decide to answer it, and the young woman on the other end

is speaking Arabic. I am surprised, and it seems OIPS was more concerned than my parents and forwarded my contact informa-tion to a student who is from the same re-gion as me. She is very friendly and invites me to the local mosque. I thank her and tell her I will come to meet her soon.

As I hang up the phone, I am excited. There is someone in New Mexico I can speak Arabic to. However, I am concerned about her recommendation to meet her at the mosque. I forgot to tell OIPS that my mom is Swiss and my father is a liberal who writes against fundamentalism. I calm down. I have been to mosques before, and it can be a very spiritual experience.

That night, I try on everything in my clos-et, looking for a proper outfit for the occa-sion. I would be going directly after class, so I want the outfit to work for class and work for a religious occasion. Nothing is working. The clothes are either not long enough or too long, or the top is cut too low. I always dress modestly, but now I don’t own proper wear to enter a mosque.

After several attempts, I decide I will wear jeans and a top and then later add a cardigan to that. My friend-to-be offers to bring me a head covering after I explain that I don’t own one.

I spend a good deal of time pulling on my cardigan sleeves and my top to make sure no skin is visible. I am welcomed and helped with putting on the hijab. I feel fine.

Yes, this is a good initiative on my behalf. It’s Ramadan and the perfect time to go to a mosque. As I am introduced to other peo-ple, I hear comments.

“Who is she here with? Her family or her husband?” My heart throbs. I am here alone. Is there something wrong with that?

A lady tells me, “You don’t look like a Kuwaiti.”

I am thinking, “What does a Kuwaiti look like to you?” or, “Have you ever even been to Kuwait?” But no, I want to be courteous, so instead I say, “Yes, my mom is Swiss.”

I feel awkward, so I make use of my skills. I start to help out the mothers with their children. A cute little 15-month-old boy runs away toward the door. I run to get him. This is a good distraction.

I leave that night appreciative of my host. She has insisted I keep the hijab as a symbol of us meeting. I am very grateful.

Certainly, my quest to make friends is not over. I walk into the SUB and see a table with the sign “Association of Non-Tradition-al Students.” I stop to ask for information on just what a non-traditional student is. The nice lady explains and says, “If you don’t feel like you fit in anywhere.”

Does it look that obvious? I am tempted to yell “Yes! I am in.” I don’t mind the $15 a year fee. I’ll pay any cost to make a friend.

Hadeel Al-Essa is a � rst-year Ph.D. student in the Family Studies Program at UNM.

Editor,UNM’s tobacco-free policy has its faults,

most of which come from the manner in which it is being treated. Your article in Tuesday’s pa-per showed that, although the UNM adminis-tration has had time to prepare for the change to designated smoking areas, those areas are not clearly labeled, and many of them are not labeled at all.

Many tobacco users complain about the lack of a smoking area at Dane Smith, for in-stance, and are unaware that a smoking area exists there. � e policy states that all desig-nated smoking areas “are clearly marked,” but this is not the case.

If the administration wants us to comply with their policies, then they should be will-ing to comply with them as well. It’s di� cult to believe that this policy isn’t discriminatory toward smokers when marking the designated areas and educating students about the policy hasn’t been a priority, especially when “dis-ciplinary action” can be taken on those who don’t comply due to a lack of information.

� e transition to a tobacco-free campus would go much more smoothly if the admin-istration worked with tobacco users instead of intentionally making smoking inconvenient.

Breann BurtonUNM student

Editor,This country is abusing its warriors in the

Middle East by sending them on multiple tours. It’s taking its toll on the soldiers and their families. Units in the Marine Corps are serving nine tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, causing more injuries and death to our sol-diers. On the horizon, I can foresee involve-ment in Iran and North Korea.

These warriors who serve are coming back in body bags, maimed or emotionally destroyed. Yet there are not enough volun-teers to take their place. Our reserves and National Guard (who are supposed to be protecting the home front) are sacrificing their lives, jobs and careers so the rest of us can live in freedom.

Their contracts to serve are being extend-ed involuntarily, because there are too few people who will stand up and serve. To be fair, most people should be forced to serve for a time in the military, if not only to instill discipline in their lives, then at least to wit-ness what conflict is all about.

Being a combat veteran myself has opened my eyes to the importance of giving this country my service to experience why our forefathers bled for this free land that we live in relatively safely.

What is resulting from non-service is a generation of young folks who are spoiled and have life served to them on a silver plat-ter with a silver spoon. Children disrespect this country and their parents. What they need to learn is to appreciate not having to live in fear of some dedicated, suicidal car-bomber.

The young today are wasteful and feel they are owed a living, instead of earning their way like the honest citizens of the Unit-ed States do. Perhaps some time facing real-ity and risking their lives would snap them back to reality.

This country needs to bring back the draft to open some eyes. Running away to Canada to get out of it is harder than what young people are doing now. Citizens need to get a taste of the medicine our soldiers take daily. Either that or let’s get the hell out of the Middle East and let them all kill them-selves. This country needs some shaking up, and it needs to face the jeopardy our free-dom is in.

I challenge you all to man up and volun-teer in whatever capacity to help this coun-try. Your country is in dire jeopardy.

the source on this story … It was just a profound honor to be able to hang out with him and be the co-anchor. He then retired, and I inherited the show and moved it into a slightly di� erent direction.

DL: What is your de� nition of journalism and how do you see that de� nition re� ected in the current state of the news media?

DB: What is news is open to in-terpretation. But it’s not rocket sci-ence what is journalism. It is being a witness to events or history: seeing it and then writing it down, or talking about it, or shooting it on video or stills. It’s plowing through primary-source documents, spending loads of time getting to the bottom of the documentary trail. � ere’s probably a few other things, but a person who just takes other people’s journalism and then o� ers an opinion based on it, or spins it in a certain direc-tion, they are performing an im-portant duty. Bill O’Reilly actually

used to be a reporter, but now he’s sort of this person who comments on the world but doesn’t see it him-self. People are entitled to their own opinions, but they are not entitled to their own facts. And what’s hor-rible is journalism has lost sight of this sometimes. Sometimes people are spinning out opinions not based on facts, masquerading as journal-ists, but the public doesn’t know the di� erence.

DL: How do you foresee the fu-ture of journalism?

DB: Journalism is probably at the bottom. I don’t think that democ-racy works without journalism; I think we’re a crucial part of it and it will all rattle apart if we don’t come up with a solution. Here is a rowdy quote from Billy Moyers: “News is reporting what they don’t want you to know. Everything else is just PR.” Moving into the future, everybody is going to have to know video, how to shoot stills, how to write, how to

plow through information and de-cide what is good information and what is lame. Newspapers and news media will become more multime-dia and they will start charging more for their stu� . But I don’t think jour-nalism is dead yet.

DL: What advice do you have for current journalism students?

DB: Don’t get too depressed with the fact that newspapers are going under. It’s not a great time. But I will say this to people who have multi-media skills, who can critically think, and can write, and can do radio, TV and print: � e old creeps running newsrooms are in awe of young people with multimedia skills. � ey think there is some sort of special secret alchemy that they bring, and that may lead them to hire you at a greater rate. � ey think they have the secret to crack this question of how do you make money to fund journalism. We got to have bright journalists or democracy fails.

The � rst vineyards in North America were grown in New Mexico, and the nearly 400-year tradition continues today at a winery within Albuquerque city limits.

John Calvin, owner of Casa Rondeña Winery, said he be-gan making wine after a successful career as an architect and musician. He said his decision to start a winery was in� u-enced by the time he spent abroad.

“While I was living in Spain as a musician in my early 20s, I was drinking the local wine,” he said. “I became interested even in my early twenties in wine-growing and winemaking.”

Casa Rondeña is the fourth-biggest producer of wine in New Mexico, and one of the newest, as it opened 14 years ago. Calvin said the vineyard has won multiple medals from around the nation for its wines.

“We don’t think we need to compete with anyone else in the world because we are making great wines right here,” Calvin said. “Casa Rondeña, as far as our dry red wines are concerned, is the most decorated winery in the entire Southwest.”

Unlike other New Mexican wineries, Casa Rondeña fea-tures a manor and courtyard for guests to drink wine in, watch musical events, and even have a wedding ceremony.

Casa Rondeña produces about 6,000 barrels of wine every year, Calvin said. � e wine can be found in any specialty li-quor store in the state.

“We like you to buy it here,” Calvin said. “We are every-where, but the best place is to come here and have a nice ex-perience, because we have such nice people working here.”

Jessica O’Callahan, one of Casa Rondeña’s bartenders, said she loves working at the winery, and that it’s a pleasure to work in a relaxed ambiance.

“The environment is beautiful, and it’s a good learning environment,” O’Callahan said. “I am really trying to learn more about wine and the whole process.”

Calvin said making wine is beyond complex, and for each type of wine there is a slightly different process. Put simply, red wines are fermented with the grape pulp, while white wines are fermented without. Calvin said these differences in fermenting lead to subtle taste differences.

“White wines tend to be more vibrant, tart, and a little bit more acidic,” he said. “The flavors tend to not last as long

in your mouth. They tend to be brighter and fruitier. Red wines, you think about them being much more complex in flavor. Red wine is aged for a long time.”

Calvin said that even though New Mexico does not seem a likely place to grow grapes, the environment lends itself to excellent winemaking. Grapes do not require a lot of wa-ter, and he said the only trouble in New Mexico comes from sudden temperature changes.

“New Mexico is associated with dry climates, which are

actually really good for growing grapes,” he said. “The prob-lem we have in New Mexico is we have dramatic swings in temperature. When we have rapid and dramatic tempera-ture changes both in the spring and in the fall, we lose grape vines every year.”

Calvin said that, despite Casa Rondeña’s multiple awards, some wine enthusiasts question the quality of New Mexican wine.

“People have been accustomed to California cabernet, and that’s what they think the cabernet is all about,” Calvin said. “We make cabernet really well here in New Mexico, but it’s very, very different. It’s really wonderful for young folks to be interested… It gets people aware we’re making great wine in New Mexico.”

Calvin said the wine community in New Mexico is more accepting and less elitist than that of California.

“One of the great things about the wine scene in New Mexico, it’s the opposite of what is in California,” he said. “You don’t really have to know anything to have a really great experience. Wherever your particular taste is is where you should be – you shouldn’t let anyone tell you what you ought to be drinking.”

Josh Rades, a patron of the winery, said he does not see wine as high-class snobbery either, contrary to how it’s usu-ally depicted in popular media.

“I am 25, and not an elitist, and I don’t feel uncomfort-able at all,” Rades said.

Casa Rondeña will participate in the Bernalillo Wine Fes-tival this weekend, but Calvin suggests people come to the winery instead for a tasting.

“It’s great for students to go out there, but it is also hot, and kind of raucous, kind of wild — it’s hot and sweaty,” Cal-vin said. “You’re drinking wine in the hot sun, and that’s not very cool. One of the nicest things to do in the Labor Day weekend is to come here. It’s a lot cooler, it’s quiet, and it’s peaceful.”

New Mexico Tea Company’s Tea Bar isn’t your grandmother’s tea house, but there’s no guarantee she won’t go after she hears about it.

� is summer, owner David Ed-wards expanded his company, which opened in 2006, into a cozy, full-� edged tea bar, open on the week-ends, that serves tea and a light meal.

“� ere’s a stereotype that just grandmothers drink tea,” Edwards said. “But we’ve had high school stu-dents, college kids, middle-aged peo-ple and older people. It’s been inter-esting to see that. I feel it’s a result of our e� orts to try and design the store to appeal to everyone. We decided no lacy stu� , no tea cozies with little kit-tens on them and things like that.”

While there are only three tables at the tea bar, there is a patio area equipped with shade umbrellas and misters to help with the heat.

Edwards said many people came during the summer to enjoy some iced tea, and one of the most popular blends was a blood-orange rooibos.

“� e rooibos is popular because it doesn’t have ca� eine, so anyone can

drink it, and this particular one makes very good iced tea,” Edwards said. “All of the restaurants who serve our tea also serve it iced. We also have a passion-fruit green tea which is very strong and also makes a good iced tea.”

Susanne Koestner, a graduate stu-dent in the counseling education pro-gram, said she buys loose-leaf tea at the New Mexico Tea Company and brings it to school.

“A really great way to save mon-ey is by buying your tea in bulk, and then I just get my hot water � lled up on campus in the SUB,” Koestner said. “So then I don’t have to pay $2 just to buy tea. I’m a graduate student here, so I de� nitely appreciate being able to have really nice tea and to not have to pay a lot for it.”

Edwards said New Mexico Tea

Downtown tea bar attracts thirsty patrons of all ages

Bar is sensitive to the student budget, so he o� ers a good deal on tea and a snack.

“Tea for two comes with a pot of tea, a scone, a blueberry mu� n and an assortment of fruit, and that is all $10,” he said. “We also don’t en-courage tipping at all. Everything is built into the cost of things. Since I own the place and I’m serving, I can charge what I want for the items and there doesn’t need to be an

additional charge. But a lot of people actually feel uncomfort-able with that. It’s my little social experiment.”

Edwards said he has researched tea online and in books and was sur-prised at all the misinformation he found.

“All tea comes from the same plant,” he said. “You produce the four types of tea from that plant: � ere’s black, green, white and oolong. … I

haven’t yet been to China, India or Japan, but I would like to go.”

Koestner said students would probably enjoy the environment at the tea bar.

“I’d say it’s just kind of a hip place to hang out,” she said. “It’s de� nitely di� erent than anything else that’s out in the community, the Tea Bar itself. � e environment is really cozy and it’s a nice place to go and hang with your friends.”
