After 29 years of teaching ethics and social responsibility, UNM Regents Professor Jeanne Logsdon is retiring.
Logsdon taught at the Anderson School of Management for 22 years and created several new business classes. She said she prefers to focus on business’ positive effects on society.
“I have most enjoyed learning about how business can make positive contributions to human and environmental welfare,” she said.
Logsdon received her Ph.D. from the University of California at Berkeley in 1983, and began teaching at UNM in 1989. In 2008, she was awarded the Faculty Community Leadership Award and earned a place in the Anderson Annual Hall of Fame.
Shawn Berman, an Anderson professor, said the school benefitted internationally from Logsdon’s efforts.
Professor stressed the positiveLogsdon: Ethical, responsible businesses are good for society’s well-being
“The internationally ranked business ethics program at Anderson is a testament to her hard work,” he said.
She has published 36 articles in journals, including Business Ethics Quarterly and The Encyclopedia of Business Ethics and Society.
Jeanne Logsdon
“Much of my research has focused on how business has performed well,” she said.
Logsdon said she hoped to convey to her students the importance of ethical and responsible business practices.
“Yes, business can have negative impacts,” she said, “Such as engaging in poor employment practices or the BP oil spill, but we expect business to be responsible, and it should be held to a high standard.”
Maria Gondo, also a professor at Anderson, said Logsdon motivated students to learn.
“She was continually looking for ways to engage students and encourage them to be as curious and passionate about business as she was,” she said.
Logsdon said she plans to travel during her retirement, but will miss her classes and her students.
“The students are very good, and the subject matter is still very interesting to me after all these years,” she said. “In addition, I will miss advising individual students on career possibilities.”

Lehmeier-Tatum said she hopes UNM and the New Mexico Phil-harmonic can work together in the future.
“Discussions on future concert collaboration with the UNM fine arts department will be explored to feature the students of the Univer-sity on a yearly basis,” she said.
UNM Music Department Chair Steve Block said he agreed collabo-ration was important
“We remain completely involved
and engaged in the future of any orchestra in Albuquerque, tradi-tional or non-traditional,” he said.
Just before the NMSO filed for bankruptcy, the organization owed $242,000 to Popejoy Hall, Popejoy director Tom Tkach said.
“We allowed the debt to grow because we didn’t want to be the downfall of the symphony,” he said.
Tkach said Popejoy will con-tinue to hold the old performance dates reserved by the NMSO for the Philharmonic.
The New Mexico Philharmonic
held its first performance at the Kimo Theatre May 27.
Albuquerque Mayor Richard Berry said in a statement he sup-ports the Philharmonic.
“I cannot imagine Albuquerque, a city that strongly supports the arts, without a top-rate orchestra,” Berry said. “For nearly nine decades Albuquerque’s residents and visitors have enjoyed live classical music, and I am pleased to learn the formation of the New Mexico Philharmonic will keep that tradition going.”
there are still a number of problems that Burundian refugees face here in Albuquerque.
“The refugees here right now aren’t getting much support from the government,” Ndayisenga said, “I got support through Catholic Charities for only three months. I came here in July and I had to start a job in September, then my support was over. So you understand that we have to work hard because we have to become independent after a time period.”
Ndayisenga said this is especially hard right now with the current job market, and those who want an edu-cation need to figure out how to sup-port themselves first. Immigrants also have to pay a monthly fee to Catholic Charities to reimburse the
organization for the cost of airfare, and missing payments can negative-ly affect immigrants’ credit scores.
The Association of Burundian Americans in New Mexico is work-ing to further incorporate itself into the state. It is submitting its forms to the IRS so it can become a non-profit.
Hammond said he is glad that the organization is composed of immi-grants themselves, and is not run by a charity, although the organization does accept some financial support from Catholic Charities.
“If you organize yourself, you’re not depending on charity,” he said. “You are advocating for your needs, your rights, your place in society, so that’s what really going on right now with the Burundians,” he said.

Albuquerque police have shot and killed a suspected carjacker.
Police Chief Ray Schultz said the man killed the night of June 4 had gang tattoos on his neck. The man’s name wasn’t released.
KOB-TV reported the 11 p.m. shooting came at the end of a pur-suit. Police spokesman Nelson San-chez says the carjacking apparent-ly happened at a liquor store near I-40 and an officer later spotted the vehicle.
Details on the shooting itself were scanty. KRQE-TV reported three officers fired on the suspect, killing him at the scene.
Schultz said the officers in-volved are on routine leave while the shooting is investigated.

Gov. Susana Martinez says her administration will assume the job of investigating misconduct allega-tions against officials who witness the signing of documents.
Martinez issued an executive or-der June 2 for the Regulation and Licensing Department, rather than the attorney general’s office, to in-vestigate allegations against a no-tary public. Notaries receive a state commission, which can be revoked by the governor.
Martinez’s announcement came in response to last month’s arrest of an Albuquerque notary in a drug trafficking case.
The Republican governor con-tends Democratic state officials acted too slowly last year to allega-tions the notary forged documents for immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses.

I would like to respond to the May 4 ar-ticle by Luke Holmen entitled “Professors leave UNM for better salaries.”
While the salary issue is definitely one that requires attention, I would like to comment on the assertions that faculty re-search productivity and support for faculty research are decreasing.
Neither of these assertions is accurate. It is true that there have been significant cuts in the “Research and Public Service Proj-ects” support from the State Legislature.
Despite this, main campus faculty re-search productivity is increasing, and this office, Research and Economic Develop-ment, continues with initiatives that broad-en and enhance research opportunities for faculty, staff and students.
A few examples follow, and I encourage everyone to look at additional information available on the Office of the Vice President for Research (OVPR) website: research.unm.edu.
Main Campus Research Funding: Main campus researchers have been extraor-dinarily productive in the past few years. Expenditures from externally funded re-search grants (not including scholarships) increased from $106.7 million in Fiscal Year (FY) 08 to $120 million in FY10.
Faculty successfully competed for a range of stimulus-funding opportuni-ties that have bolstered infrastructure and provided additional opportunities for stu-dents. The stimulus funding means that re-search grant expenditures for FY11 will ex-ceed FY10.
Main Campus Research Support: I was appointed vice president for research in FY09 and since then, the OVPR has de-veloped a number of initiatives to facilitate proposal development and submission and to provide new opportunities for faculty, staff and students.
Faculty Research Support Officers (FRSOs): For two years, we have funded four FRSOs to assist faculty who have not previously conducted sponsored research, who need assistance with budgets, or who
are working on complex multi-investigator proposals.
Arts and Humanities Research Initia-tives: Since 2009, Dr. Jane Slaughter has spearheaded an effort to provide research funding opportunities and proposal prep-aration assistance for Arts and Humani-ties faculty. For example, this spring, the National Endowment for the Humanities held a proposal writing workshop at UNM, which was attended by 56 faculty and staff.
Electronic Research Administration: We are in the midst of a multi-year process implementing proposal development and award-tracking software for main campus. Cayuse 424 (already implemented) elimi-nated paper forms requiring signatures and has simplified proposal submission for fac-ulty and staff.
Response to new NSF and NIH Re-quirements: National Science Founda-tion and National Institute of Health now require responsible conduct of research (RCR) training for students and post-doc-torates and that all proposals contain data management and archiving plans.
The OVPR provides the RCR training and, in partnership with University Librar-ies, provides faculty assistance with the development of Data Management plans. Since August 2010, 14 faculty, 12 post docs, 150 graduate students, 16 undergraduate students and six others (198 in total) have completed RCR training.
Graduate Student Funding Initiative (GSFI): This new initiative consists of 50 distinct one-hour sessions on topics rang-ing from finding funding sources to writing winning proposals, budget preparation and
compliance. During this first year, we have offered 80 sessions, and a total 94 students participated, with some attending up to 20 sessions. Fifteen of these students have completed certificates in grant-writing, PI eligibility, research ethics or research compliance. For additional details, visit re-search.unm.edu/graduatefunding.
STC.UNM: This is a nonprofit corpora-tion formed by UNM in 1995 to protect and transfer its faculty inventions to the com-mercial marketplace. STC.UNM works with the OVPR to assist faculty in obtaining pat-ents or copyrights and in transferring tech-nology to the marketplace.
Patents and copyrights awarded to UNM inventors increase every year. Despite the tough economy, STC.UNM assisted in the creation of five startup companies based on UNM technology in FY10, with six startups based on UNM technology in FY11 to date.
Faculty Retention: The OVPR actively works with colleges, schools and centers to assist in faculty retention. We have been partners in a number of successful reten-tion efforts.
The Future: We are actively developing and strengthening external partnerships that will broadly benefit main-campus fac-ulty. Efforts range from strengthening part-nerships with the National Labs and AFRL to developing visibility at the National En-dowment for the Humanities and the Na-tional Endowment for the Arts. These ef-forts will enable UNM faculty to remain competitive in the tight federal funding cli-mate that the FY11 and FY12 federal budget cuts will create.
We are the state’s leading research uni-versity. We award the majority of graduate degrees in New Mexico, including 74 per-cent of all Ph.D. degrees in the state.
Faculty, staff and students continue to demonstrate that UNM can advance during budget challenges and the associated tur-moil. My staff and I remain committed to assisting them and to finding new ways to facilitate main campus research.
I would be glad to provide additional de-tails and examples about the outstanding research accomplishments of our faculty, staff and students.
Editor,
I would like some clari� cation from Park-ing and Transportation Services (PATS) Director Clovis Acosta on the impact of in-creased parking rates.
I understand that this will be the � rst in-crease in three years, but in the past three years the sta� has not had a pay raise. Yet, the University has raised our health in-surance rates and now is raising our co-pays for doctor’s visits. Now PATS wants to chip away at our dwindling paychecks.To add insult to injury, PATS decides to place parking meter machines in already-cramped lots. In B Lot, we have su� ered numerous loss-es in spaces due to new construction. Any-body on the waiting list can tell you that PATS is not issuing any new permits.
I was to understand that the Yale parking Structure was to alleviate some of the conges-tion. Now it seems that without warning, PATS can take up the spaces that we are already charged a premium on. We should get a dis-count if PATS is going to use vital parking spac-es for its own gain. It could also save the $1300 it spends on the PATS personalized parking space in B Lot if it charges itself for that space.I would love to use alternate transportation, but I am not on a schedule that would allow use of public transportation. So I am forced to pay ridiculous prices to park at my place of employment. I would just like to know how PATS can raise parking permit rates and then take parking spaces away.
Faculty, sta� and students continue to demonstrate that
UNM can advance during budget challenges and the
associated turmoil.

LAST WEEK’S POLL RESULTS:
THIS WEEK’S POLL:
Ten days later, Harold Camping’s prediction for the rapture turned out wrong. He said this was a computation error and the new date is Oct. 21, 2011 making it his fourth predication for the end of times. Is the fourth time the charm?
A bad batch of German bean sprouts, according to the AP, is believed to be responsible for a widespread outbreak of E.Coli. Twenty-two have died thus far, and four Americans are suspected of having it. Are you worried?
Yes. Camping is a religious leader and there’s no way he could be wrong four times.
Yes, there’s no point in taking a chance with a virile virus.
Maybe. It’s like they say, there are no atheists in a fox hole.
Maybe, if I go to Germany I would probably avoid the bean sprouts.
Probably not, I can’t take another heartbreak from Camping.
No, it’s happening in another country across the ocean.
No, why is this still a thing?

”True Colors” may be per-formed by high school students, but it would be a mistake to under-estimate these kids.
The performance was the sec-ond of three shows in the Wild Dancing West Festival, an exhibi-tion of local contemporary dance performances. ”True Colors” was the collaborative effort of two dance programs, the Contempo-rary Dance Ensemble from the Public Academy of Performing Arts, and Oxygen Dance, an inde-pendent studio.
There was no theme to string each number together in “True Colors,” and because of this there are a few confusing numbers. Without a concrete narrative as-signed to the show, or even the individual numbers, it was like watching a human manifestation of the soundtrack from “Fantasia.”
The show began with some-thing reminiscent of a warm-up session for a sassy musical pro-duction. Live percussion accom-panied the dancers and moved with them throughout the show, each beat bumping their limbs ap-propriately and always with grace.
The succeeding numbers follow a sort of narrative not linked in con-text, but they shared a certain dra-matic sense of emotion. Two lone dancers undulating in movements like two leaves caught in a breeze, colliding and blowing apart. A gag-gle of girls in warm, earthy tones reveal intimate glimpses of their relationships with each other with close, gentle movements. It felt as if they offered a taste of their lives,
each vignette divulging a distinct and powerful emotion.
For the most part, each piece displayed this same sense of con-nection the dancers had to the movement and music, each capa-ble of commanding the audience’s attention by inspiring empathy. It was natural to be drawn in and feel a connection.
It was these pieces that evoked excitement for these young peo-ple at the beginning of the journey that is life. Combined with epic in-strumentals, it was the feeling you get when you experience some-thing profoundly beautiful but so simple at the same time.
The dancers then left the stage, as did the life that had filled the small space. A video projection of a dance number, filmed at what appeared to be White Sands, ap-peared downstage. This was the first stump I tripped on. Maybe it was because I couldn’t feel their energy, or perhaps it was because they likely didn’t have music on lo-cation to inspire their movement, but it fell flat.
The music clashed with their movements for the most part, and I was uninspired by the location and the absence of visible facial expression. It was almost comical, like I was watching them on a re-ality show as they confronted ir-relevant challenges, such as danc-ing in dunes, to prove themselves graceful enough for any context.
Thankfully, the rest of the show stuck to live dance. The pieces that followed dove into murkier emo-tional depths, accented by shad-owy lighting as the dancers drew me down into their psyches.
My favorite was “Meta,” per-
formed solo by Rachel Neitzke to a gravelly string accompaniment. Her movements were almost an-imalistic in their ferocity. Even so, she never lost her femininity. ‘Juxtaposed’ had a similar mood, though executed by a gaggle rather that a lone reed, like a pack of lion-esses hunting at dawn.
This was the penultimate num-ber, though it should’ve been the conclusion. I would have opted to leave out the piece “3” or at least the experimental video backdrop.
The catchy electronica and ro-bot-inspired choreography joined in a union that felt very sci-fi. In this respect, I can see why some-one may have thought the video backdrop worked. However, it did a great disservice to the dancers, as I spent half the time watching the film.
For those of you that missed “True Colors,” there’s one more performance in the Wild Dancing West Festival, a multimedia col-laboration called “RE-FORM.”
“RE-FORM”
Sixth Annual Wild Dancing West Festival Final Performance
With “Say You Love Satan,” an occult parody of the romantic comedy genre, Blackout Theatre proves it can elevate plays far above the level of the script alone.
On paper, “Say You Love Satan” is a cutesy, gay love story packed with one-liners and pop-culture references that will be familiar to viewers of Hol-lywood’s romantic comedies in the past 10 years. The play is presented as part of Albuquerque’s annual Pride celebration.
The script starts pretty slow, burden-ing the actors with clunky exposition.
Thankfully, the play, under the di-rection of Nicole Duke and Michael Ray-Carter, is brilliantly cast. Ray-Carter stars as Andrew, and he carries the play by delivering jokes, emotional fears and philosophical thoughts on Dos-toyevsky with equal poise. Ray-Carter’s energy and wit entertain the whole way through.
Andrew has just gotten out of a horrible relationship and isn’t eager to jump into another one, despite the saintly Jarrod (played by DeSean Payne) waiting on the sidelines. His best friend, Bernadette, played with wonderful wit and sass by Rhiannon Frazier, can’t be-lieve Andrew won’t take advantage of Jarrod’s patient dedication, but all An-drew wants is to finish his dissertation on Dostoyevsky and maybe get some laundry done.
It’s at the laundromat that Andrew encounters Jack: a sexy, charming man who’s well-versed in Andrew’s favor-ite author, Dostoyevsky. Jack (played by Zachary Sears) is a confident rogue who sweeps Andrew off his feet.
It’s only a little later, as Andrew has well and truly fallen for him, that Jack confesses the extent of his uniqueness: He’s the son of the Devil.
While not as stunningly original as other Blackout shows, the production is sleek and well designed. Set chang-es are done through projections on the back wall, allowing different scenes a more defined sense of location. This
choice prevents lengthy scene changes and does not intrude on the actors or sacrifice the theatrical atmosphere.
The costuming is functional and un-memorable, but the lighting is wonder-fully done. It nimbly shifts the locations and moods without calling attention to itself.
Frazier is an absolute treat as Ber-nadette, Andrew’s luckless-in-love best friend. While everyone in the cast is up to the challenge of delivering the play’s comedy, Frazier’s performance is utter-ly believable and hilarious. She lands ev-ery line with quickness and ease — even with some of the less-inspired jokes in Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa’s script.
Daniel Garcia is given numerous roles, including Andrew’s ex-boyfriend Chad, Jack’s ex-boyfriend Rafael and a star-struck bouncer. Garcia makes each uniquely hilarious, sometimes within seconds of each other.
Payne plays Andrew’s patient, good-hearted, would-be boyfriend, and does a great job of it. He nails the character’s vulnerable moments and makes him-self the appealing alternative in An-drew’s love life.
Unfortunately, Sears isn’t as suc-cessful playing Jack, the Son of Satan. As written, Jack is irresistible and enigmat-ic. While Sears lends the character a flu-id, confident physicality, he struggles in the moments where Jack makes his su-pernatural origins and presence felt. He comes off more as someone who sim-ply thinks he is the son of the devil than someone who could convince anyone of the fact. Sears improves in the play’s second half as Jack reveals his actual in-tentions to Andrew.
With “Say You Love Satan,” Blackout took what would have been an average play and made it into impressive, well-crafted entertainment.
While it’s a shame the play only runs for one weekend, there are plenty more Pride events coming up, and the production is further evidence that the Blackout Theatre Company is one to watch.

For the fourth year, Albu-querque’s finest restaurants and chefs were pitted against each other on June 5 in the name of raising money for New Mexicans who don’t always know where they will get their next meal.
The event was a fundraiser for The Storehouse, the larg-est food pantry in New Mexico. Lisa Giering, its marketing di-rector, said one in six people in New Mexico deal with hunger issues daily.
Giering said the Storehouse has seen a 25 percent increase in patronage over the past year.
“In an economy like we have now, where unemployment is at record highs and gas prices are at record highs, we’ve got a real systemic problem where grocery prices have escalat-ed about 25 percent in the last
School is out, leaving unemployed music fans everywhere with nothing to blow off to go to a show. While live mu-sic is certainly less exciting when it’s not completely irresponsible for you to be there, it will still help curb the boredom of staring at your wall in the summer heat. Added bonus: Many of the ven-ues are actually air-conditioned.
June 7Young LungsLow Spirits$7 - 21+I asked a hipster chick next door if
she knew of any shows coming up. She said she knows these guys and they’re good and “sorta indie, I guess.” I tried to look them up on Youtube but there are way too many bands called “Young Lungs” to ever find the one you’re look-ing for. They’re playing with Seryn, who I don’t know anything about, other than that they’re from Denton, Texas.
So, the hipster chick next door to me says these guys are good, and they have a very common name. If that ap-peals to you, there are way worse plac-es to see a show than Low Spirits. Don’t forget your fake IDs, kids.

year in cost,” she said. The knockout featured four
bouts of chefs going mano-a-mano. Competitors were judged on characteristics such as overall taste, originality and use of secret ingredients. Each round lasted 30 minutes.
Grove Café and Market chef Renauldo Robertson said this is the second year The Grove has competed, and he looks forward to a “threepeat.”
“It went real good, and it was nice and fast,” he said. “One bite is all you get to make an impression.”
One of the judges for the competition was Police Chief Ray Schultz. He said he has been a judge for other food competitions, but this one holds a special connection be-cause of the way it benefits New Mexico families in need.
“It’s really great because my officers interact all the time with people who can’t put food on the table,” he said. “So I am able to see that this can make a difference.”
People who want to donate food can bring it by the store-house, but Giering said they can also make a difference by donating their time at the Storehouse.
“We love when we see people become aware of a problem in their community and they want to become involved,” she said. “As they develop through stag-es in their life, like when they get married or when they get their first job, they can maybe make donations or organize a food drive in their work.”

a year ago in this fine rag, in which the band’s “stoner surf rhythmic drive” was judged as “solid.” You could definitely do worse than dropping a few dollars on this band.
The band is playing the Launch-pad again on June 24th, this time for a CD release party. So if you’re itching for the chance to blow $10 on its LP, you should probably wait for that one. But on the eighth, the band is playing with somebody called Psychostick. Your call.
June 10Meat PuppetsLaunchpad$12 – All AgesThe original country punks. The
Meat Puppets sound like a peyote trip in the Arizona desert (not that I would know) and pass a lot of their songs singing about exactly that. Brothers and founders Cris and Curt Kirkwood have a rocky history of arrests and addiction,
including one incident in which Cris beat a mall security guard with his own baton, got shot by the guard, and subsequently spent a year and a half in prison for his trouble.
The band was a big influence on Kurt Cobain and appeared on Nirva-na’s Unplugged in New York album. It was in Albuquerque a couple years ago and played with Built to Spill. One of the Puppets chased one of the Built to Spill guys around the stage wearing rubber gloves. It was weird.
June 11Tech N9neSunshine$33 – 16+Wasn’t this guy here last month?
June 12 Motley CrueThe Pavilion$39-$515 – All AgesAren’t these guys dead by now? It’s
a cruel fact of the universe that their tickets go for three times as much as
Meat Puppets tickets. And, apparently, you can pay about 15 times that if you want the really good seats.
June 14Good Charlotte/YellowcardSunshine$20 – All AgesIt’s amazing that Good Charlotte is
still a thing, given that it’s more a carica-ture than a band. Seriously, how more stereotypical could a shitty emo/pop-punk band get? It has an album called “Cardiology” with a cover featuring a human heart with an eye on it. It has a single called “Misery.”
It’s like these guys decided that My Chemical Romance wasn’t whin-ing hard enough, and formed a band based on that concept. Hopefully they will suffer a similar fate to My Chemi-cal Romance, whose lead singer was hit in the head with a bottle mid-perfor-mance at Warped Tour in Las Cruces a few years ago.
Speaking of which, I had the misfor-tune of seeing second act, Yellowcard,
at Warped Tour. I left after one song to watch the paramedics revive a fat guy who had passed out from dehydration. It was much more entertaining and in-finitely less pathetic than Yellowcard’s set.
June 24Yo Momma’s Big Fat Booty BandEl Rey$12(advance)/$17(door) – 21+How could I not write about a band
with this name? I highly recommend the show based on that alone. The de-scription of the band on the El Rey’s website describes its sound as “toe-tapping funk beats like only yo mama would believe.” Which is definitely a plus.
The band also has live video on the website in which they are revealed to actually be pretty good. It looks like a fun show — everyone at the concert in the video is clearly having a good time. Then again, how could you not be, lis-tening to Yo Momma’s Big Fat Booty Band?
June 25Kid CudiThe Pavilion$53-$515 – All AgesThis guy’s only good song is only
good because of MGMT. Albuquer-que should bring them back instead. I can only assume the ticket listing for $515 is a tasteless joke, but maybe it’s some kind of VIP package where Kid Cudi throws a champagne bottle at you and whines about having nightmares. It would make a good Youtube video, I suppose.
June 27Okkervil River/Titus AndronicusSunshine$18 – All AgesI was specifically instructed by my
editor to write about these bands. Ap-parently they’re “like Arcade Fire but less famous.” This is quite similar to tak-ing a recommendation from the hip-ster girl next door, but if that sounds like your thing, more power to ya.

JULY 27-AUGUST 13, 2006 / PAGE 17NEW MEXICO DAILY LOBO
In an ideal world, Plaxico “Ched-dar Bob” Burress will soon go from jail bird to Philadelphia Eagle.
You might remember Burress, the former New York Giants receiver who made the game-winning catch
against the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII, and the same Bur-ress who accidentally shot himself in the thigh in 2008 at a Manhattan nightclub. He was released from a medium-security prison Monday.
Burress is no longer incarcerated, but finds himself an ex-convict with few employability prospects. It’s not
that NFL teams don’t want him. The Philadelphia Eagles (the same organi-zation that signed dogfighter Michael Vick, much to the chagrin of practi-cally every dog-loving, red-blooded American) are apparently flirting with the prospect of signing Burress — that is, once the lockout lifts, if it lifts.
The tragedy of Plaxico Burress is that, in an ideal world, he wouldn’t have gone to prison.
Almost half the prosecutors in the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office believed Burress didn’t deserve to serve prison time, the Daily News re-ported. It’s of little consequence now, but Burress’ most dubious mistake wasn’t accidentally shooting himself in the leg at a Manhattan club two years ago. No doubt, that was stupid.
His biggest mistake is that he car-ried a concealed, loaded gun — which happened to be unlicensed — in a state that has an iron-fist, mandatory three-and-a-half year sentence for vi-olation of state gun laws and a mayor who, from the very beginning, was seeking political brownie points in chastising Burress and suggesting he should be hammered because he is a “role model for our kids.”
“Our children are getting killed with guns in the streets,” New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg told reporters in the aftermath of Burress’ shooting. “Our police officers are get-ting killed with guns in the hands of criminals, and because of that, we got the State Legislature to pass a law that, if you carry a loaded handgun, you get automatically three-and-a-half years
in the slammer. I don’t think that any-body should be exempt from that, and I think it would be an outrage if we didn’t prosecute to the fullest extent of the law, particularly people who live in the public domain, make their liv-ing because of their visibility.”
Sadly, Bloomberg failed to realize that visibility doesn’t translate to in-tegrity. Burress is not, and should not, be a role model. In such a progres-sive society, it’s shock-inducing that we still have such regressive attitudes and belief systems about the famous and influential. Athletic virtuosity and financial success aren’t predictors of morality, nor should they be.
Had Bloomberg an ounce of integ-rity, he’d have muzzled himself better than to expose his ignorance. Consid-ering his situation, Bloomberg should have recused himself from publicly commenting on Burress’ case. At the time, he was seeking a third term as mayor, which required a City Council vote to amend the city’s term limits. This was in October 2008. “Cheddar Bob” shot himself in November.
Circumstantially, it seems plausi-ble to say that Burress was caught up in political crossfire, easy sound-bite fodder, ending up as collateral dam-age in Bloomberg’s bid for reelection. More than that, Burress was a victim of the system that champions “justice for all,” but it’s implied that it is justice as those in power see fit — selective jus-tice. This was justice, all right — jus-tification presented to the poor, the powerless, the underprivileged that the system is not only colorblind, but
blind to celebrity. The New York Dis-trict Attorney held a collective big-fish fry, proof that good lawyers don’t buy freedom.
I hate to bring this up, because the cases aren’t exactly comparable, but I will, at the risk of being ridiculed. Don-té Stallworth pled guilty to DUI man-slaughter in 2010, and he received a 30-day jail sentence. Burress shot himself in the leg and was prosecuted on the presumption that something worse could have happened. What if that stray bullet hit someone else? It wasn’t enough that Burress could have, conceivably, killed himself had he struck his femoral artery.
Nope, the “justice system” has a quota to fill. Crime, just like oil, is a big business. Such is the case that the cor-rectional is too preoccupied with “risk management” to appropriately dis-pense fair punishment. And because of that, Burress is a convicted felon. He’s an on-the-field stat-stuffer who is now a part of the nation’s growing crime statistics.
“You go from being the absolute hero to finding yourself in jail for a mistake in judgment,” Peter M. Fran-kel, Burress’ attorney, told the Associ-ated Press. “It’s really a tragic story.”
Frankel went on to tell the Associ-ated Press that Burress will never re-ally “believe that the punishment fit the crime.”
In an ideal world, there would be no crime and no need for punishment. Instead, Burress is a jail bird, his only crime that he gave the Bloomberg and the “justice system” an ideal target.

JUNE 6-12, 2011 / PAGE 9NEW MEXICO DAILY LOBO SPORTS
Roman Martinez and Daniel Faris are back in their old stomp-ing ground, but not for long.
Martinez and Faris, former UNM men’s basketball players, are back in Albuquerque for off-season training for their profes-sional basketball careers.
Neither is in the NBA or the NBA Development League in the United States, but both have found roster spots overseas.
“It’s not bad,” Faris said. “But it is different, to say the least.”
Faris graduated from UNM and played center for the Lobos from 2005-09. He was a member of the 2009 UNM men’s Mountain West Conference regular-season
championship squad.Now the 6-foot-9-inch big man
is on a team called Sagesse in the Lebanese city of Beirut.
He spent 2009-10 playing for a club in Holland, but he re-cently signed a multi-year deal with Sagesse to remain with the organization.
“Geographically, a lot of peo-ple don’t know where Lebanon is,” Faris said. “I didn’t know until I went there.”
And Faris also didn’t know about the situation the country faces.
Lebanon borders Israel. Cur-rently, the area is war-torn, as the countries are in conflict.
Faris said it’s odd to see mili-tary personnel every day on his drive to practice or home games.
“There was always a tank a block down the street from our gym,” he said. “It’s always sit-ting right there on the sidewalk, which is kind of weird to see. But I haven’t seen any fighting or any-thing like that, and it doesn’t take much time to get used to.”
Martinez, on the other hand, spent the last year living in one of the most beautiful places in the world: the Canary Islands.
Martinez plays for the U.B. La Palma basketball team on the Canary Island of La Palma in the Atlantic Ocean northwest of the African coast.
He began playing for the team last summer, and he said he is ec-static the team recently asked him to return for another year.
“I’ve worked hard every day in
LOBO BASKETBALL practice, and it led to my coach asking me to come back,” he said.
Martinez was a member of the Lobos’ back-to-back MWC cham-pionship teams from 2009-10. During his four years at UNM, he was admired by fans and team-mates for his gritty play.
While he by no means was the most talented Lobo basketball player, Martinez was known for hitting clutch, long-range shots, playing smart and listening to his coaches.
He was also an academic All-American during his senior season.
Given all that, Martinez said he had trouble adapting to life after college.
“It was a little up and down season to start my professional career,” he said. “The culture is completely different. When you come back (home), you can’t ex-plain in detail the experience, the difference between there and American culture.”
Not only did Faris and Martinez have to adjust to life in foreign countries, they also had to familiarize themselves with the flow and speed of pro ball.
Faris said he gave Martinez
guidance on what it means to be a professional player.
“When you play overseas, it’s not only the basketball side of things,” Faris said. “Just the liv-ing and the conditions overseas, I don’t want to say bad; it’s just different than what we are used to here. But it takes time and ad-justments any time you move anywhere.”
Martinez said he is slow-ly adapting to his lifestyle, but he hasn’t quite mastered Span-ish, which is La Palma’s national language.
“My Spanish is so terrible,” he said. “But I’m learning, and that’s my plan this summer — to hit the books and learn the language on my own agenda.”

Ten Lobos ran and jumped their way to championships this year.
Nine members of the UNM track and field team qualified at the NCAA West Qualifying Round in Eugene, Ore. for the 2011 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships.
Those nine teammates join Richard York to make a total of 10 Lobos competing at the championships in Des Moines, Iowa.
York already qualified for the decathlon at the NCAAs at the Brutus Hamilton Outdoor Invitational in Berkeley, Calif. on April 23.
Head coach Joe Franklin said
his team excelled during quali-fying rounds in Eugene.
“The environment is very different,” he said. “On the last day of our meet, they had about 10,000 people there.”
In the men’s 5,000-meter race, more Lobos qualified for championships than any other university in the country.
Ross Millington, Nicholas Kipruto and Rory Fraser ran the 5,000-meter and all got a spot in Des Moines. Millington and Kipruto finished sixth (13:36.39) and seventh (13:41.90), respectively, and both ran lifetime bests; Fraser finished 13th overall.
Franklin said the runners’ performance far exceeded his expectations.
“Going into the race, I was

hoping to get two of three guys,” Franklin said. “The fact that all three got in — it’s the most of any university in the country.”
In all, the Lobos will send six long-distance runners, three field jumpers, and a decath-lete to Des Moines to compete against the best in the country.
Franklin said the Lobos will use the energy from Eugene at the NCAAs.
“For our kids to go out there and compete on probably one of the world’s biggest stages at Hayward Field, and com-pete well, shows not only that they were prepared,” he said. “They have the self-confidence to be in that situation with the pressure.”
David Bishop, who finished third in the 1,500-meter race, was the Lobos’ highest-place finisher in all events.
Freshman Django Lovett was the only Lobo to qualify for the high jump. His 2.11 meter leap earned him 10th place and a spot in the NCAAs.
Keith Gerrard and Ruth Senior both earned bids to the championships in the 10,000-meter run. Both finished in sixth place in their races.
