UNM’s Conservative Republican group held its own teach-in in the SUB Tuesday in opposition to the (un)Occupy Albu-querque movement.

GPSA voted Monday to support the (un)occupy Albuquerque movement and condemn University administration’s actions in dealing with the movement’s presence on campus.

� e resolution, which passed 13-2-1 at an emergency GPSA council meeting, called for the administration to allow protesters to occupy UNM 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

It said the administration was out of line when it made the decision last month to forcibly remove protesters from campus, a move that re-sulted in more than 30 arrests.

(un)Occupy has since obtained a permit to assemble on campus between the hours of 5 a.m. and 10 p.m. on weekdays and between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. on weekends. Protesters must re-new the permit each week.

Rogelio Guerrero Jr. manages the front desk at the Inn of the Mountain Gods Resort and Casino near Ruidoso. Guerrero is a member of the Mescalero Apache tribe, which owns and operates both the inn and the Ski Apache ski resort.

Guerrero said he was promot-ed to front office manager nearly six months ago. He has worked for the tribe for most of his life, and started out working in grounds maintenance.

“I love customer service, I love working with guests. I’ve been doing it since I was 16 for about eight years.”

Guerrero said the multi-million dollar luxury resort has been a wise investment for the tribe. The inn is the largest employer in Lincoln County, and the second-largest in

neighboring Otero County.“I think it really has helped out

the tribe a lot, they employ a lot of people,” he said.

Guerrero said he does not have a college degree, but knows the hotel inside and out.

“Some of our people (who went to college) are in management positions now, but … I learned hands-on,” he said.

Guerrero said he thinks ho-tel management is a good career choice for those who enjoy travel.

“I’ve worked here most of my life, but I worked in Austin and Washington, D.C., as well at the Radisson as the manager for the restaurant and a supervisor,” he said.

Guerrero said hotel manage-ment is a busy industry, where su-pervisors have to be knowledgeable on nearly every aspect of a hotel from accommodations and secu-rity to events and promotions.

“I think the hardest thing is trying to keep up with promotions and marketing,” he said. “I have to know what’s going on in the hotel at all times. We talk to security, marketing and the restaurant.”

Guerrero said managers often have to be available 24 hours a day to handle situations or com-plaints, but says he doesn’t mind the night shift.

The Associated Press

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — A defiant Herman Cain declared Tuesday he would not drop his bid for the Republican presidential nomination in the face of allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior.

“Ain’t gonna happen,” Cain said at a news conference a day after a fourth woman accused him of unwanted advances.

“We will get through this,” he con-tinued, trying to steady a campaign that has been rocked by the controver-sy for the past 10 days.

Cain denied anew that he had ever behaved inappropriately and said the alleged incidents “simply didn’t hap-pen.” He said he would be willing to take a lie detector test if he had a good reason.

Earlier in the day, Cain sought to undercut the credibility of the latest woman whose accusations are threat-ening his Republican presidential campaign. His chief rival Mitt Romney

weighed in for the first time, calling the allegations “particularly disturbing.”

Cain said he called the news con-ference because he wanted to speak directly to the public, accusing the me-dia of distorting his response to the al-legations. He said that he had never seen Sharon Bialek until she called her news conference on Monday in New York, alongside attorney Gloria Allred.

“I don’t even know who this woman is,” he said of Bialek. “I tried to remem-ber if I recognized her and I didn’t.”

Another name confronted Cain as well when one of his two original ac-cusers was identified publicly by news organizations as Karen Kraushaar, now a spokeswoman in the Treasury Department’s office of inspector gen-eral for tax administration.

When asked about Kraushaar, Cain said he recalled her accusation of sex-ual harassment but insisted “it was found to be baseless.”

Cain contended that “the Democratic machine” was pushing the allegations but said he could not point to anyone in particular. He also suggested his accusers were lying.

GPSA from page 1each night: We can’t protect it against theft, and our grounds and mainte-nance crews can’t work around it.”

Protesters had established a permanent base of operations at Yale Park, an area that became known as “Camp Coyote.” The current permit prohibits 24-hour occupation, kitchens, electricity and amplified sound in Yale Park.

GPSA’s resolution calls it “unjust” for UNM to cite an increased transient population on campus as a reason to shut down the protest, calling the transient community a “crucial part of the 99 percent that (un)Occupy Albu-querque seeks to represent.”

UNM spokeswoman Cinnamon Blair said the removal of the protest-ers was not a direct result of the tran-sient population on campus. She said reports of intoxicated individuals at the camp and violence against pro-testers were cause for concern among the administration.

“This was kind of an escalation of some violent events,” she said. “I think part of the issue was that some of the people involved in the police reports were transients or were known to campus as such, so that’s how it came about, but it wasn’t just blatantly say-ing transients are the reason alone.”

GPSA Representative Jee Hwang said he was reluctant to condemn the administration’s actions, even though he didn’t agree with the administra-tion’s decision to forcibly remove the protesters.

“I felt like it’s stuff that’s a little bit outdated and already sort of been ad-dressed by other organizations,” he said. “And I don’t believe that GPSA needs to jump on that bandwagon … I feel like maybe what we should do in this resolution is talk about what can we do from here.”

GPSA Representative Matthew Makofske voted against the resolution because he said he thought it reflect-ed a specific political agenda and was not the best interest of UNM’s gradu-ate student body.

“This statement that we’re mak-ing is very political,” he said. “It’s tak-ing sides … but is that what we’re supposed to be talking about? Is that what we’re representing and what we should be doing? I feel no.”

Makofske said he personally agrees with the movement, but didn’t think the majority of UNM’s 6,000 graduate students would have agreed with the document.

“I don’t feel that this is something we should be doing as elected officials and elected delegates of the graduate students of UNM,” he said.

ASUNM passed a senate resolution Nov. 2. that acknowledged the move-ment as a “comprehensive example of the potential for experiential educa-tion surrounding lawful, peaceful and effective practice of grassroots expres-sion.” The resolution did not, however indicate whether ASUNM supported the protesters’ presence on campus or the administration’s actions in deal-ing with protest. It also did not speci-fy what future measures the adminis-tration should take with regard to the (un)Occupy movement.

The resolution encouraged con-tinuing dialogue between the protest-ers and University administration.

“Both academically, it’s crawled into our curriculum, teachers are talk-ing about it in classes, and physical-ly, you walk by it and it’s there,” said ASUNM Sen. Caroline Muraida, who co-authored the resolution.

Earlier, Romney, the former Massachusetts governor who has been a GOP front-runner for months, told ABC News/Yahoo! that the allegations were serious “and they’re going to have to be addressed seriously.” He called the latest accusations disturbing, and Cain didn’t disagree both in an earlier interview and at the news conference.

Fight off urge to smoke with healthy alternatives

by James Douglas RallsDaily Lobo Guest Columnist

Depression, thoughts of suicide, social isolation, quick temper, general malaise and numbness, trouble sleeping, avoidance of large crowds, uncertainty and anxiety around loud noises are all signs and symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I know because I have PTSD, and those are some of the things PTSD has given me. In return for all the things PTSD has given me, it took from me my military career, a 10-year relationship and two jobs outside the military. It changed my personality and the man I once knew.

I don’t know why or how I got PTSD. I can’t pinpoint a day, an event, or even a series of events that changed my life forever. I just know I will never be the person I was before going to Iraq in 2005.

Those who knew me before 2005 will tell you I was fun, spontaneous, outgoing and could find the joy and humor in just about every situation. I had always enjoyed meeting new people and ex-periencing new things. They will tell you I am not like that anymore.

For a few years after returning home from Iraq, I tried to figure out what had changed within me and why, but no matter how much I analyzed it I could not come up with the answers. I just knew I was not me, not the me I used to be, and I was struggling to find myself.

In 2011, five years after returning home, I found myself enrolling at UNM. I was in the UNM Veterans Resource Center when a woman named Elise asked me how I was doing. Believing she was just being polite, I answered the obligatory “fine, thank you.” It was then that I could feel her looking at me as she repeated the question. This time I was aware that she wasn’t asking the question carelessly. She asked me how I was doing in such a way that it allowed me to see in her eyes and hear in her voice that her question was more than casual.

Dear Dr. Peg,I want to quit smoking but I am having a really

hard time. Can you help?

Dear Smoker:Addictions are very tough to break, and nic-

otine addiction is one of the hardest. So first let me congratulate you for even getting to the point where you want to quit. It’s a big first step.

Before you take any action, I recommend you do some thinking. Thorough mental preparation is helpful for any challenging task. Ask yourself the following questions:

What do you enjoy and appreciate about smoking? How are cigarettes a positive force in your life? Do they calm you down, give you social time with friends? There must be something pos-itive about our addictions, or we wouldn’t have them. It’s important to recognize the good stuff because you need that information to make your best decisions.

Often our best chance of beating an addiction is to be able to replace some of what the addiction is giving us with a healthy substitute. The more you understand yourself and your behaviors and motivations, the more successful you’ll be when you try to change. A patient once told me that cigarettes were her best friend. Imagine how hard it was for her to let that go. In her case, a healthy substitute would be for her to either engage in social activities that provide her with a set of generic friends or to seek and establish a few

close friendships that can replace the friendship awarded her by cigs.

People often don’t let go of a habit until the negative outweighs the positive — sometimes not until the negative drowns the positive. So the next step, naturally, is to ask yourself about the negative. What are the downsides to smoking? Nasty cough? Hassle from your girlfriend? Haz-ards to your bank account? Stinky car? Everyone is different, and each quitter has his own reasons. Clarify yours.

As a doctor, I could provide you with plenty of medical reasons to quit smoking if you need them. From colds to cancers, with heart disease and stroke in between. Smoking hazards are well known.

There are two basic ways to quit smoking: sud-denly or gradually. Cold turkey is from all to noth-ing in one swift move: Do it and be done. Taper-ing, on the other hand, is cutting down a little at a time until you have quit. This prolongs the pro-cess, but softens it as well.

Which way sounds good to you: swift and sure, or slow and steady? Both ways can be successful. It’s just a matter of which works best for you.

To help you quit, you might try substitution. For example, instead of putting a cigarette in your mouth, you might pop in a toothpick or a car-rot stick. Hit the floor with a few pushups when you get a craving. Chew gum instead of a plug of tobacco. Brush your teeth after eating instead of smoking. Friends close enough to smell your breath will thank you for that last one.

Addiction has two main facets. The first is the physical dependence that your body has on the

substance regardless of your will. This is the bio-chemical reaction that happens inside you, mak-ing you feel better when you have your drug of choice and lousy when you don’t.

The second is the behavior or the habit. For example, the way you reach for your smokes after you put down your fork or when you get in your car. You can control your behavior. It’s important to acknowledge and address both parts of a to-bacco addiction.

Nicotine replacement products like gum and patches give you nicotine so you can work with the behavior without the distraction of nicotine withdrawal. You change the behavior first then take away the nicotine. Of course, you eventually have to quit the patch or the gum or the electronic cigarette too, in order to really quit.

There is also a number of medications that help people quit nicotine products and decrease withdrawal symptoms. You start the medication several days before your chosen quit date and when the day comes you quit cold turkey. These medications require a doctor’s prescription.

Whatever method you choose, pick a good time to quit. You want to maximize your chance of success, so don’t try to quit smoking during finals week or the day before you defend your thesis. Most people who quit smoking or chew-ing have tried multiple times. They may have even succeeded for a short time, but many may ride the cycle of addiction before they jump off for good. If you have quit before, that means you have had practice, and everyone knows that prac-tice makes perfect. Acknowledge that you are at-tempting something very difficult. Be gentle with

yourself. If you slip up and have a cigarette, try to forgive yourself and go back to your plan.

Good luck to you. If you need help, come see our health educators in the classy glassy office just outside the SHAC front door. You can call 1-800-QUIT-NOW, a free service pro-vided in part by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or visit one of the many online quit communities.For additional help, visit: nicotine-anonymous.org becomeanex.orgquitnet.comffsonline.org

Her question made me feel as though she somehow saw the turmoil inside me, and that scared me. I was frightened by the thought of someone seeing all the things I was trying to hide within myself, and yet that moment was also a moment of revelation.

It was then that I was finally able to admit to myself that my problem was more than I alone could handle, and that what I was experiencing was not unique to my experience. Others be-fore me had been through this, and I was going to get through it, too. I sought out that help, and I continue to see a counselor at the Albuquer-que Veterans Center regularly. I know now that I will never recapture the me I once was; I am learning to accept the me I am now and move forward.

I don’t tell you this to gain your sympathy or pity, I tell you this because there are and will be many more veterans who have or will experi-ence similar situations. There are hundreds of thousands of men and women who have served or are serving in combat zones around the

world. Many of them will be forever changed by their experiences, just as I have been.

As a country we are ill-equipped to handle the number of veterans we will see returning home with PTSD. We need to recognize there is no quick fix, no one-size-fits-all cure for those of us diagnosed with PTSD. Each one of us is an indi-vidual, and requires individual plans of action to help us. I can’t say I have any of the answers, but it will take more than just counseling or medica-tion to help these men and women. Right now, however, those appear to be the only forms of help available.

The saddest part of this whole mess is that it is not just the veterans who are impacted by PTSD. Everyone who knows, is related to, or has met a veteran with PTSD is affected. Those people who I have met since returning home never got the chance to know the real me — the me before PTSD. This will also be the case for those who return with PTSD. We will never know them for them, for who they were. We may see a glimpse of who they once were, but we will never

fully understand the impact PTSD has made on them. We may never know if these changes are temporary, permanent, or if there will be some sort of combination thereof.

There are many veterans here on campus that have some degree of PTSD, and are going through much more than many people realize. If we miss a few classes, seem preoccupied or otherwise distracted in class, or maybe just seem standoff-ish, try not to hold it against us. It may be one of those days in which we are dealing with more than just the pressures of school. Veterans can’t always articulate what is bothering them or why — something just is. When around veterans, just be yourself; be supportive and try to be under-standing. We may never be the people we once were, but hopefully we can one day be accepting and proud of the people we have become.

As more and more veterans come home, and more and more veterans show the signs and symptoms of PTSD, the most important thing we can do is to not give up on them as they struggle not to give up on themselves.

Having established Albuquerque as the fractal capital of the world, the Fractal Man said hopes to use fractals to revolutionize the way kids learn science and math worldwide.

Fractals are in� nitely repeating patterns that are self-similar at all scales, said Jonathan Wolfe, the Fractal Man and founder of the Fractal Foundation.

“What we want to do as enlight-ened leaders of society is make the smallest possible change to a com-plex system that will guide it in the right direction,” he said. “We can’t take a brute force approach, but we can harness that power of self-orga-nization to make small changes early on in the evolution of a system.”

During the past few months, Wolfe said he has done fractal ser-mons at local churches. He said it is spiritually empowering for people to learn they are not an insigni� cant link in a 7-billion-person chain.

“I jokingly say now that I preach the fractal,” he said. “What I’m trying to get at is that there’s some innate, inherent life force, if you will, or self-organizing power that has simple processes (that) cause complex be-haviors, complex structures.”

At the First Friday Fractal show at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science — which has sold out 202 times — Wolfe projects a computerized image of fractals. According to Wolfe, audiences take a ride into psychedelic in� nity ac-companied by music produced by Daniel Wolfe.

Wolfe said he is pioneering frac-tal-based education, which com-bines principles of science, math and art.

Patricia Valderrama, a UNM stu-dent and volunteer at the Fractal Foundation, said zooming into frac-tals makes you contemplate in� nity, a universal fascination.

“Everywhere people come in contact with fractals, they just fall in love,” Valderrama said. “So I think that it’s easy, it’s just a matter of lit-tle groups of people expanding and expanding.”

Jonathan Wolfe, a Ph.D. in visual neuroscience, said fractals are the key to involving kids in math and sci-ence because the fractals are a visual way to learn the concept.

He said his goal is to make Albuquerque the source of fractal information and resources for teachers and planetariums to pass on his teaching.

He said he envisions a four-story, fractal architecture build-ing. From the ground up, his plan for each floor of the building rep-resents a different level of educa-tion, from local to international in scope. He said he estimates that executing this will cost $50-$100

Educator on mission to ‘fractalize’

million. “� ere are people who … want

America to thrive and realize that to do so, we have to do a better job of educating people in math and sci-ence,” Jonathan Wolfe said. “For somebody who’s a billionaire and who wants to change the world, we can let them do that by funding the Fractal Foundation.”

Since he established the Foundation in 2003, he has taught fractals to more than 35,000 students and 24,000 adults, including 623 teachers in New Mexico alone. For the past three or four years, Jonathan Wolfe said he’s traveled all over the world giving lectures on fractals, discovering along the way that many others share his belief in the power of fractals.

He wants the building to house a public policy think tank, which he said would simulate and study small changes in political and social sys-tems with computer software to bet-ter inform leaders.

“I have a lot of visionary leader-ship ideas that I’d like to apply in the political realm, but I don’t want to

A fractal is a never-end-ing pattern. Fractals are infi nitely complex patterns that are self-similar across different scales. They are created by repeating a simple process over and over in an ongoing feed-back loop. Driven by re-cursion, fractals are im-ages of dynamic systems — the pictures of chaos. Geometrically, they exist in between our familiar dimensions. Fractal pat-terns are extremely famil-iar because nature is full of fractals. For instance: trees, rivers, coastlines, mountains, clouds, sea-shells, hurricanes, etc. Abstract fractals such as the Mandelbrot set can be generated by a computer calculating a simple equa-tion over and over.

Leanne ItalieThe Associated Press

NEW YORK — With three words, Deron Beal of Tucson, Ariz., helped move the yard sale online, only with no money changing hands.

Beal is the founder of The Freecycle Network, or Freecycle.org. It is a grassroots gifting network that — thanks to the sour economy and a growing commitment to the environment — has transformed into a global movement of millions offering, wanting and taking all manner of things.

Staffed by volunteer moderators and loosely overseen by Beal, Freecy-cle aims to let you share your old TVs, clothes, broken blenders, tire chains and moving boxes with people near-by, using email groups at Yahoo! and on the network’s website.

There are nearly 5,000 Freecycle groups with about 9 million mem-bers in more than 70 countries. Not bad for a guy who was simply trying to keep perfectly good stuff out of land-fills and find homes for stuff charities won’t take in his community.

“It’s a win-win-win-win,” Beal said. “Everybody feels good.”

Freecycle is effortless for people who can leave their old magazines, kitchenware or larger items on a porch for pick-up, but it can gener-ate a lot of email and suck up more

spend my life running for office; too many compromises involved in that,” he said. “Right now, public policy de-cisions are based on who puts the most money into the conversation. It works for a small, limited interest, but it doesn’t work for society at large.”

Once he can employ enough peo-ple to handle administrative duties, Jonathan Wolfe said he wants to lead a team of educators on a world tour in his fractal-themed hot air balloons.

“My goal is not to turn every-body into a fractal artist,” he said. “I want people to think critically and creatively, scientifically rigorous

and innovatively, creatively putting together pieces of the puzzle in new ways they haven’t seen before.”

time in larger locales as giver and taker try to untangle their sched-ules and decide where and when to make an exchange.

There’s no real navigation at Freecycle. You sign up, wait in some cases to be approved by a moderator, and decide whether to take individu-al emails, daily digests of offerings or read the list online only.

Beal got the idea for Freecycle while working as a recycling coordi-nator for a nonprofit in Tucson. The organization offered jobs to men in homeless shelters to do concierge re-cycling by picking up things like old computers and office tables at shops, restaurants and other companies, then trying to find homes for them at other nonprofits.

“We had this old, beat-up pickup truck, and would load up the pickup and drive from one nonprofit to the next to see who could use this stuff,” he said. “It was crazy, and taking way too much work to find new homes for perfectly good stuff … So I set up an email group, where anybody inter-ested could join and they could pick it up themselves.”

Beal clearly struck a nerve. On the New York list, in email after email, posters are following the network’s in-structions and carefully writing sub-ject fields providing their locations and the words “offer,” “wanted” and — hopefully — “taken” for things like

“2 very broken laptops: Bronx Mor-ris Park and Hering” or “Kraft Grated Romano Cheese (East Harlem).”

Beds, garment bags, hangers, aquarium pumps, coffee makers, bi-cycles, toys, cribs, toasters, those pa-per wrappers for coins, air purifiers — the variety is endless. Some of it works, and some of it doesn’t. Some of it goes quickly and some might not go at all.

Alexandria Tristram, 42, of Manhattan had no luck with a box of old computer cables during her first attempt at Freecycling, thinking “someone who tinkers with old computer parts will want it.” She ended up recycling them herself.

Donna Goodhue, a moderator of the Freecycle group in St. Johnsbury, Vt., got involved in 2004 after seeing a TV news story about the network.

While browsing through the list of a nearby county about three years ago, Goodhue found a car that didn’t run at a time when she really needed one.

“My son drove over and got it,” she said. “We boosted the battery and it started right up. It needed brakes and the sun roof leaked, so I would drive down the road with this umbrella open in my car when it rained. I didn’t have a car at the time; it got me to work for eight months and it cost about $300 to fix the brakes.”

While some people never get rid of their stuff, “If you post an item today you’ll usually have 10

responses within a minute” on any given list, Beal said.

Beal encourages people to wait a day before choosing a recipient, to be fair to those who don’t hover over email moment-to-moment. He also thinks it’s nice when people “pick their stories,” seeing how the giftee ap-proaches the moneyless transaction.

Are they brusque, businesslike, friendly? Do they plan to distrib-ute your bag of clothes to homeless shelters?

“Pick the story you like best,” he said. “‘My son’s going off to college.’ ‘We’re helping with a nonprofit and could use that bed’ — it’s just people helping people.”
