UNM students can safely and cheaply experience more of Albuquerque’s nightlife this summer with ABQ RIDE’s 66 Late Night service. � e service extends the schedule of Route 66 buses by one hour, to 1:30 a.m., on Friday and Saturday nights this summer.

ABQ RIDE Director Bruce Rizzieri said the program began in 2005 and was originally called Rapid Ride After Dark. He said the bus program is a way for locals to get around town Friday and

Saturday nights without having to spend money on parking or worry about driving to and from their destinations in Albuquerque’s Old Town, Nob Hill, Downtown and East Central areas.

“It’s convenient … so you don’t have to worry about tra� c, some-one else is doing the driving for you and by extending the hours you can stay at these venues about an hour longer than you could without the program,” he said.

Photo Column: Homelessnessphotos by Tom Hilsee

by Tom Hilsee [email protected]

I spent 24 hours in the “Albuquerque Oval” of homeless shelters and aid services to live a day in the life of a person experiencing homelessness.

Early Friday morning, I headed toward St. Martin’s Hospitality Center, a day shelter on Third Street and Mountain Road.

On the way I met Ron, who was sitting at a bus stop. He said he had stayed at the shelter.

Ron said he steered a nuclear powered submarine in the Navy and was laid off from an oil drilling company in Lafayette, La. when the recession began.

He told me about a man who had once picked him up to work for the day. He said he completed the work in a third of the time expected; the man asked “Boy, can you

count?” and Ron said the man assumed he was experiencing homelessness because he couldn’t count.

Then I met the director at St. Martin’s, Linda Fuller, who explained the center’s protocol.

She said the center, which opens at 8 a.m. and closes at 2 p.m., serves food and offers services including haircuts, personal stor-age, mail boxes, laundry, showers and rehab programs to anyone who needs it. She said some of the patrons have been coming to the shelter for more than eight years.

Then I met the doodler, who wouldn’t tell me his name; he just wanted me to call him the doodler.

“Ya know, JFK was known to be a great doodler,” he said.

He said he wasn’t experiencing

homelessness, but still receives his mail at the shelter. He said he enjoys coming in once a month to pick it up.

He said he takes his envelopes, sits in a chair by himself and doodles the afternoon away as he watches the people come in and out of the shelter. He said he used to teach fourth and fifth grade in Santa Rosa.

Then I headed Downtown to get a spot at the Good Shepherd Center, an overnight shelter, for the night. Registration for the shelter is at 5:30 p.m.

There are a few shelters in town, and dil-igent and sober clients can almost always find a place to sleep, but Good Shepherd is the only one I visited without cockroaches or heroin junkies in the courtyard.

I was guaranteed a spot because it was my first night at the shelter. The other people experiencing homelessness had to be chosen in

the shelter’s lottery to get a bed.I was assigned to bed 13 and was handed

a towel, a bar of soap, a toothbrush, a shot of shampoo and pocketless hospital pants that I was required to wear for the entirety of my stay.

The staff noticed I was taking a lot of pictures and told me I had to store my camera in a locker. I tried to weasel my way out of forfeiting my camera for the night, but eventually confessed that I was a photojournalist.

The staff said I could keep the camera on me, but that I couldn’t photograph any-one’s face.

The other clients and I all shared one tube of toothpaste, and to keep the water in the shower running I had to hold down a button.

Everyone in the shelter waited for dinner

The man who wished only to be called “the doodler” sits and doodles at St. Martin’s Hospitality Center. He was once a teacher of fourth and fifth grade in Santa Rosa.

stands in front of crates of

fresh socks and underwear that are provided for the clients upon

showering.

A man experiencing homelessness makes the walk inside the Good Shepherd shelter after having his name called in the nightly lottery. The applicants always outnumber the beds available.

at 8:30 p.m. Some people played cards, read or watched the Celtics on TV, while the rest sat and smoked.

Dinner was mashed potatoes, chicken, green beans, punch and doughnuts. The food wasn’t bad; it was comparable to the food they serve at La Posada.

Lights went off at 9:30 p.m. We slept in bunk beds with divider walls between us. The beds were comfortable, but I didn’t sleep well because I was too worried about losing my only pair of contacts.

We were woken up at 5 a.m. by the staff. Everyone gathered their belongings, folded up

their sheets and waited for breakfast, which was oatmeal, toast, coffee and a doughnut.

We were kicked out at 6:40 a.m.I met up with Jerry, a man I had talked to

the night before, for an interview. He told me his life story over a pack of cigarettes, two coffees, an orange juice and a roll of doughnuts. I talked to him for three hours in six different locations, while he told me his dad was the only family he had left, but had kicked Jerry out three weeks ago.

We finished talking around noon and I walked back to Lobo Village while Jerry stayed on the streets.

The Weekly Freeby Nicole Perez

[email protected]

Whether you’re partying or vacationing, summertime can certainly drain your bank account. Check out these freebies to avoid a completely empty wallet.

StargazingTuesday, June 5

Missed the eclipse on May 20? Then watch Venus cross the sun — it’s your last chance to see it this century. Transits of Venus occur about every 120 years and arrive in pairs, and the next ones will be in 2117 and 2125. The Rio Rancho Astronomical Society will set up solar telescopes at the Coronado State Monument at 2 p.m. at Kuaua Road in Bernalillo. It’s literally a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and it’s free. How often does that happen?

VoteTuesday, June 5

New Mexicans have one of the last primaries in the country, and Mitt Romney has already taken the nomination. However, you can still put your two cents in about whether you like him. More importantly, vote on who you want to run in November to represent New Mexico in Washington next year. Voting locations can be found throughout the city. For exact locations visit bernco.gov/vcc or follow the QR code.

KaraokeWednesday, June 6

Belt out all your favorite classics at Retro’s Bar at 1410 Wyoming Blvd. N.E. Maybe your talent will get noticed, and you’ll become famous — but don’t get your hopes

up. At least you can feel famous for a night. Karaoke is free, although drinks and snacks are not. The karaoke starts at 8 p.m.

Happy Arte HourThursday, June 7

Instead of drinking your 5 p.m. cocktail this week, get your hands dirty and make clay art. Maybe you can even make yourself a cup from which to drink future cocktails. Happy Arte Hour is from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the National Hispanic Cultural Center’s Domenici Education Building at 1701 Fourth St. S.W. There is a $5 suggested donation, but the event is free.

Landlord/tenant workshopThursday, June 7

It seems like everyone’s leases expire in the summer. If you want to make sure you’re not breaking a lease, or want to know requirements for moving out, then hit up this landlord/tenant workshop at the State Bar of New Mexico at 5121 Masthead N.E. from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. There will be attorneys present to answer your questions, but don’t expect them to listen to your sob stories if you’re in the wrong.

HikingSaturday, June 9

Escape the monotony of sitting in your air-conditioned house and watching “Sopranos” reruns by venturing outside for once. Still need some motivation? Saturday is national Get Outdoors Day, which the state celebrates by offering free admission to most national parks and monuments. Parks near Albuquerque with free admission include the Bandelier National Monument near Los Alamos, El Morro National Monument near Ramah, Fort Union National Monument near Watrous and Pecos National Historic Park in Santa Fe. Even if you don’t enjoy yourself, at least you’ll get a tan.

Editor,

Facebook’s mid-May initial public offering, or IPO, was a bubble that never really got inflated enough for an ugly burst, yet somehow everyone still managed to come out of it covered in icky goo. The stock opened at — an apparently inflated — $38 per share and now looks set to stabilize in the mid-$20s. Shareholder lawsuits and Securities and Exchange Commission investigations are already in process.

Well folks, you were warned by, among others, my friend Neal Reynolds, who wrote as the IPO rolled out that “likely within a few days the stock will settle down far below whatever peak it hits today — especially since GM just pulled all their advertising from Facebook.” Hold that thought, will you?

The real problem, I think, is that the politicians had already butted in, in many ways, both structurally and at, so to speak, “point of sale.”

I’m surprised that more people haven’t commented on GM’s decision to pull millions of dollars’ worth of Facebook advertising mere days before the IPO. The punditry seems to be generally treating that decision as a market act, but the timing

looks less related to advertising efficacy than to a desire to tank the stock price. While it could have been routine — if large-scale — gamesmanship on the part of higher-ups at GM who wanted to short the stock, I seem to recall that GM’s single largest shareholder is the government of the United States.

Could there be a political dimension here? Why would the Obama regime lean on a company it owns three-fifths of to help torpedo Facebook’s IPO? Possible reasons range from the petty — such as to punish Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin for renouncing his U.S. citizenship to keep the taxman’s grubby hands off his new fortune — to the sinister, like not wanting a new tech bubble, with a possible gooey explosion, playing out over a contentious election cycle to unknown effect, or perhaps just getting some leverage on Facebook by creating a “situation” that could then be made to “go away” given cooperation on things like user surveillance.

Even without the GM hijinks, one can’t help but notice that the IPO’s backers were the usual suspects: Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, et. al.; the state-privileged players whose collective motto is “privatized profits, socialized risks, anything goes and Uncle Sugar will save us if we need him to.”

One also can’t help but notice that those usual suspects acted in the usual way, doing their damnedest to deceive investors

into buying or holding shares not on the basis of their real value, but by propping up the stock price with massive buys as it began to sink.

Finally, there’s Facebook itself, now “under investigation” by the SEC, the government bureaucracy whose paperwork requirements theoretically protect investors, but which somehow always seems to do exactly the opposite. Did Facebook present one set of information to the public and another to “select investors,” i.e., the usual suspects named above? If so, does that information differential and/or the actions taken based on the “select investor” information constitute fraud?

You can’t keep track of the players without a scorecard, and you can’t trust the numbers on the scorecard. But to the extent that skullduggery is playing out in the Facebook saga, one can’t help but notice that the politicians seem to be looking over every major player’s shoulder and whispering instructions into those players’ ears.

Nor can one reasonably write off that set of facts as mere coincidence. This, my friends, is actually existing capitalism. And if you think that’s the same thing as a free market, I’ve got some shares in a bridge I’d like to sell you — at $38 a pop.

Batman, Wonder Woman and Captain America storm into Albuquerque this weekend to fight bad guys and look cool while doing it.

The Albuquerque Comic Expo is a three-day celebration of all things comic book and pop culture related, and this year’s expo features Marvel legend Stan Lee, comedians Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes and countless booths of prominent comic book writers and artists.

Comic book fan and manager of comic book store Astro-Zombies Maxx Maclennan said comic culture has been growing exponentially, especially this year with the release of films like “The Avengers” and television shows like “The Walking Dead.”

Local comic artist Andy Kuhn said events like the Albuquerque Comic Expo invite viewers old and new to open up and enjoy a comic book.

“It does nothing but bring new people in, or people who once distanced themselves from

comics,” Maclennan said. “They go and see ‘The Avengers,’ and it goes and rekindles that passion they once had for characters like Captain America, and they come back and say ‘What’s new with Captain America?’”

Comic fans are renowned for the elaborate costumes many of them wear to conventions. Maclennan said that dressing up is more than just wearing a costume; it’s a process of actually becoming that character for a day.

“It gives you a chance to be Cap-tain America. Some little kid is going to look at you and not see average Joe behind the mask; he’s looking at Captain America,” he said.

Maclennan and a few other employees will be selling mer-chandise at this year’s expo, as well as promoting the comic store’s podcast. Maclennan said it was a great year for comics.

“Nerd culture is becoming mainstream, so I’m really excited to see people who haven’t gone to a convention before, who aren’t really the veteran comic book readers, getting into it for the first time,” he said.

Maclennan said comic books

should not be dismissed as just another form of pop culture — he said they are an art form.

“It’s not the lame thing to do anymore, it’s not only the kids who get picked on that are read-ing it,” Maclennan said.

Even some of the industry’s old-

est employees are getting a new start due to the public’s renewed interest in comics. Allen Bellman started working in the comic indus-try by responding to a job advertise-ment in 1942. In 2011, he attended the premiere of the movie “Captain America,” which was based on the

first character he helped draw at Marvel Comics. Bellman said that at the time, he never thought char-acters like Captain America would be as popular as they are today.

“The Men of Mah Jongg” is full of some great humor and occa-sionally resembles a senior-citizen version of Seinfeld, but at its core the play tells a moving story about facing the final chapters of life.

The Adobe Theater’s heartfelt production of “The Men of Mah Jongg,” written and directed by Richard Atkins, is a comic tale of four seniors struggling to deal with the challenges of aging.

“The Men of Mah Jongg” starts slowly by introducing us to Sid, a bitter shut-in who can barely motivate himself to get dressed, let alone leave his New York

apartment. Sid’s helpful friend Marvin, who Sid teasingly calls “Mother Teresa,” arrives to clean up, take some laundry and see how his friend is doing. While Sid and Marvin entertainingly exchange jabs and insults, the audience slowly learns that Sid is still hurting from the loss of his wife, Mildred.

Much of “The Men of Mah Jongg” works in this way: Atkins’ characters converse in witty dia-logue while the audience gradually recognizes the burdens they strug-gle with just beneath the surface. It’s a delicate balance, but Atkins strikes it perfectly. This is mainly thanks to two excellent lead per-formances from Tim Reardon as

Sid and Ray Orley as Marvin. Both actors are adept with the comedy and pathos of their roles, but also possess such chemistry with each other that their friendship feels not only real, but important.

Though it never becomes overly serious or melodramatic, “The Men of Mah Jongg” deftly sneaks up on the audience, making viewers laugh too much to notice their increasing concern for the characters.

In a quirk of fate, Sid receives a DVD in the mail meant for his late wife: an instructional video on how to master the ancient game of Mah Jongg. Sid, having found a way to connect to his wife, seizes on the game and is rejuvenated. He con-vinces Marvin and their friends

Harry and Jerry to play with him. But even as Sid begins to recover, life presents even more challenges for the group.

Of course, “The Men of Mah Jongg” isn’t really about Mah Jongg, but about the four friends who become closer because of the game. As they openly embrace the game, which some of them first dismissed as being for old ladies, they grow a little wiser and more accepting of each other.

The play portrays the trials of seniority with a refreshing frankness, refusing to either exaggerate or belittle them. The Adobe Theater’s production of “Men of Mah Jongg” brings the play to life with generous wit and depth.

“Never. Neither did Stan Lee,” Bellman said. “He never would have known where he was today, as I never knew where I’d be to-day. It was just something you didn’t fathom or think possible.”

Bellman worked alongside Stan Lee in a period most comic book lovers refer to as the “Golden Age of Comics.” He created comic books and characters like the Patriot, the Human Torch, the Destroyer and Jet Dixon of the Space Squadron.

“Whatever Stan Lee threw at me, I did,” he said. “It was a love; draw-ing to this day is still a love. It’s not just a job. In fact my son once told me, ‘They pay you for this?’”

While artists like Bellman have rekindled their careers at comic conventions, local artist Kuhn began his career at one. Kuhn was tired of his animation job in Indiana and decided to take a step into the world of comics by handing out pieces of his work at a local comic convention.

“Animation is really cool if you are the guy in charge, because if you are just a guy working in a studio, you don’t really have a style,” Kuhn said. “One guy can’t make an animated movie, but one guy can make a comic book.”

Kuhn said he was quickly noticed by Marvel Comics,

where he was hired to pencil and ink comic book characters like Spider Man, the Incredible Hulk and X-Men. Kuhn said reading a physical copy of a paper comic book is a unique experience.

“It’s the combination of words and pictures in a way that no other medium can do, and the way that comics are structured … so the reader fills in that gap on there, so it’s a more interactive kind of thing,” he said. “I don’t think anything else can really replace it.”

late hours to be extended to include Sunday nights as well.

De Reyes said the new Late Night route runs the same streets as the regular 66 route. The only change is the extended hour, meaning buses run until about 1:30 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights. He said the route runs from the Park & Ride at Tramway and Wenonah to the Central and Unser Transit Center.

According to a press release, a Late Night bus runs every 30 min-utes and costs $1 per ride. The last pick-ups are Downtown at around 1 a.m., according to the press release.

The 66 Late Night service started May 25 and will continue through Sept. 23.

CNM students planning to transfer to UNM from CNM transfer fairs, trans-fer workshops, point-of-service sur-veys and graduate surveys. We receive feedback from students who have al-ready transferred to UNM from our job-placement graduate survey.

TS: I participate on the UNM Provost Committee on Advising team and will continue working with that team to develop transfer support from CNM to UNM.

DL: What additional support do you believe you need from UNM in or-der to advise CNM transfer students?

TS: CNM Academic Advisement’s perspective needs to be included in the presentation of CNM transfer student information related to CNM Academic Advisement to appreciate

the larger perspective. It is important to be transparent and to understand the full student transfer experience.

DL: How many credits are trans-ferable from CNM to UNM?

TS: Transferability and application of transfer credits from CNM to UNM is dictated by UNM. The receiving college always determines transferability of credits and how those credits apply to graduation requirements at that college.

IN THE DAILY LOBO 277-5757

UNM Athletics has enjoyed a historic year thanks to the loss of some key competition.

� e men’s basketball and baseball teams took home both the Mountain West regular season and tournament titles. Men’s cross country also won the MWC championship and the men’s soccer team took the Mountain Paci� c Sports Federation regular season and tournament titles. � is is the � rst time since the formation of the MWC 13 years ago that UNM won conference titles in basketball, baseball and cross country all in the same year.

� e women’s soccer and cross country teams both won conference titles as well.

� is level of success is unparalleled for UNM and may be due in part to the conference shake-up that has been going on for the past few years.

� e MWC hasn’t been immune to casualties, such as BYU’s departure for the West Coast Conference, except in football where the Cougars are independent, while Utah bolted to the PAC-12 in all sports last season.

I’m not saying the Lobos won six conference championships this year because BYU and Utah left, but it didn’t hurt UNM that both schools departed to di� erent conferences.

� e MWC added Boise State last year, but the Broncos only excel at football. Even though the team missed out on the conference title last year, it still had a 12-1 record.

Utah was a competitive school in the MWC, but BYU was a dominant force and its departure created an opening for other schools to capture

conference titles. Last year, BYU sports earned a combined 10 regular season and tournament championships in the MWC.

Until last year, BYU was the bully of the MWC, but with it now causing havoc in the WCC, the Lobos have the chance to become what the Cougars were for 13 years in the MWC: dominant.

It may be too early to predict whether the Lobos can take over the conference with the addition of new schools such as Fresno State and Nevada this year.

However, despite those additions, the MWC will lose a few schools such as SDSU, TCU and Boise State.

At the start of next season, former MWC rival TCU will now be a part of the Big 12 in all sports. TCU originally agreed to join the Big East at the start of next year, but instead it will pay the Big East $5 million to move to the Big 12 Conference.

In 2013, SDSU will join the Big West Conference in all sports except football, for which the Aztecs will travel cross-country to play in the Big East.

Boise State agreed to play in the Big East in football and rejoin the Western Athletic Conference in all other sports. However, the Broncos are having second thoughts because important schools like Florida State and Clemson might be on the move to the Atlantic Coast Conference.

With all of the shifts, the Lobos might be able to capitalize on weaker competition in all other sports, with the exception of football.

Although UNM does not have a reputation as an athletic powerhouse, it might be able to be a big � sh in a small pond in future seasons.

Lobos step it up in MWC shake-up

Capricorn—Though you try to convince

yourself otherwise, you know deep down

you’re not happy with a long-standing

habit or routine of yours. You will real-

ize, perhaps suddenly, that whatever it is

needs to change now, though you’ll ratio-

nalize it away by telling yourself you need

to be that way, that you would let people

down if you weren’t. Truly, you fear any-

thing on the fringes of what you already

know. It’s time to face that fear.

Aquarius—As on top of your game as

you’ve been during the past week, you’ve

still got a ways to go. This should not be

discouraging, as you are not in a race to

the top. It’s all about the journey, the expe-

riences you collect and learn from on the

way. Still, it’s not a bad idea to have your

eye on a specific goal. Otherwise, you can

expect your energies to be scattered and

unproductive.

Pisces—You’re not exactly a tempera-

mental person, but once in a while you

can really fly off the handle. This week

especially, you’ll notice yourself being ir-

ritable with people who maybe haven’t

done much wrong and not with malicious

intent. This comes from your own insecu-

rity, not about a specific trait but a general

uneasiness. When you feel your hackles

rise, disengage and lose yourself in what-

ever sounds best at the moment.

Aries—Considering the year you’ve had

so far, you’ve made quite a bit of progress,

especially where your work and career is

concerned. It’s important to step back and

reflect on the larger picture, especially this

week. You’ll feel caught between opposing

forces, and it will seem at times that noth-

ing you do is taking you where you think

you should be. Take a deep breath and re-

lax, buddy up and forget the past for a bit.

The present is where it’s at.

Taurus—Financial sensibility will be

your strongpoint over the next few weeks,

just in time for Mercury moving into Can-

cer. Security will become a top priority as

the loosey-goosey Gemini influence has

had you groping for solid ground. How-

ever, avoid getting so caught up in your

home life. It’s good to keep busy, but

there’s a world with people out there,

people who could brighten your day

more than a dollar earned.

Gemini—You understand that you, and

most people, have the potential to be

great, though you’re not necessarily the

most ambitious person and thus rarely

utilize your full strength. You may try see-

ing how far you can go, not just in push-

ing limits but in expanding the territory

you cover. Travel when you can, learn

from every experience, draw value from

every drop life offers this week.

Cancer—This week, you’ll start off

shaky and unsure of yourself, but by

Wednesday you’ll be feeling back in your

element, more or less. You may feel bit-

tersweet about the past few weeks, which

have tested your sense of self and ideas

about the world. You don’t have to de-

cide what you believe right away. Let it

stew for a while, and in a month you’ll

understand what it’s all about.

Leo—People usually talk about lazi-

ness like it’s a bad thing, but this week

that may be the key to success. You

may not advance according to society’s

definition of success, but you will feel

yourself blossom when you yield to the

forces of the universe telling you to just

take it easy. When you feel ill at ease

this week, just remember you’ve got

nothing to worry about and that noth-

ing is wrong except the way you per-

ceive your circumstances.

Virgo—Your perfectionist tenden-

cies will be the end of you in the com-

ing weeks because the cosmos is call-

ing for open communication, unbound

by convention and fears of what others

might think. Once you get a taste of the

possibilities unlocked by abandoning

these restrictions, you’ll wonder why

you ever clung to your reservations in

the first place.

Libra—You feel one with the wind this

week. Regardless of apparent upsets in

your life, nothing can bring you down

and you deal with any problems prompt-

ly and efficiently. You can maintain this

feeling of effortlessness by simply not

trying. Live by what feels right and learn

how to tune in to your intuition and lis-

ten to what it tells you. Don’t let appear-

ances fool you.

Scorpio—By mid-week, you’ll be ready

for a break from the fast-paced life you’ve

taken to lately. The whirlwind hasn’t

stopped, just dropped you off. If the

new surroundings are not to your lik-

ing, don’t run for the hills. Figure out a

way to mold yourself to this new environ-

ment, or adjust to a new way of thinking.

You didn’t land here by accident; you’ve

been presented with an important learn-

ing experience.

Sagittarius—You feel compelled to act,

though you’re not certain what it is that’s

begging for your attention. It’s likely there

is nothing you’re forgetting. The Gemini

influence is rocking your boat hard and

you’re apt to do things without a purpose

or goal in mind. This is not bad or good,

but what feels bad is your inability to de-

cide what is right for you. Go to your hap-

py place for a while and the answer will

come to you; make sure you’re calm and

quiet enough to receive it.
