Some UNM students had the opportunity to visit colleges across the southwest this summer to bring back ideas for improving student life at UNM.

� e visits were arranged by Walt Miller, associate vice president for Student Life, and included dele-gates from ASUNM and GPSA who observed recreation facilities, hous-ing facilities, student health centers and food service/dining options.

ASUNM president Jaymie Roybal said the trips were worthwhile be-cause UNM has a unique campus.

“We’re di� erent from a lot of schools,” she said. “We’re a big com-muter campus, we have lots of non-traditional students and we have a lot of alumni that are still involved in the University. I think the socioeco-nomics of a UNM student are di� er-ent from a student at UNLV.”

Brittany Jaeger went on the trips as a representative for Miller. She said the � ndings will be shown to

organizations such as the Student Health Center and the Honors Program.

“We asked every school the same exact questions,” she said. “If the re-gents wanted to see it, we’d take it to the regents. We’d take it to stu-dent housing, to student a� airs, the health center, the rec center … � ey’re all interested to see what students found.”

Jaeger said the trips were no lon-ger than a day, with the exception of a trip to Texas Tech.

“We’d get to the Sunport at about 4:30 a.m. and return to Albuquerque at around 11:30 at night,” she said.

Miller refused to give exact costs for the trips, but said the short du-ration of each trip was meant to be economical.

“Most of what we had to learn could be packed into a tight schedule,” he said. “� ese were fact-� nding trips, they weren’t visits.”

Miller said the trips weren’t fund-ed using student fees. Zach Gould / Daily Lobo

SCENT OF NEW MEXICOStudents travel for tips on innovation

UNM parking officials enforced penalties in 1908, the same way they do 2011.

A century-old parking ticket was one of the items discovered inside a time capsule buried at Hodgin Hall in 1908 and opened Wednesday night at the alumni building’s grand re-opening.

A college newspaper, a Lobo banner, a magazine, books and a

letter from a student were also un-earthed inside the 103-year-old time capsule.

Alumnus David Swan said he was fascinated by the items be-cause they showed the leaps UNM has made from its humble begin-nings, when Hodgin Hall was the only building on campus.

“To think about what that very tiny beginning has spawned in this state is just amazing,” he said. “To be part of this is really something special.”

The black-tie event allowed fac-ulty, students and staff from many generations to learn about the University’s past and bury its pres-ent history inside the time capsule to be opened in another 100 years, ASUNM President Jaymie Roybal said.

“We are a part of history, and that’s a really exciting thing because whoever is at this University in 100 years is going to open up something that we were involved in,” she said.

At Wednesday’s event, students wrote letters to commemorate their time at UNM. One will be chosen to be buried in the new time cap-sule to be opened in 2111.

Swan said despite the prob-lems the University’s faces today, UNM’s rich history is something of which we can all be proud.

“I think, even with all the issues that go on from time to time, UNM has whole treasures its roots,” Swan said. “We have culture in New Mexico, and this University

is part of the roots we have here at this community, and it binds us together.”

University President David Schmidly also attended the event.

“People love history, and the idea of having time capsules is a great idea, and I think that it shows students that the history of their university is important,” he said.

After his � rst season roasting chile with a family friend, Donovan Caldwell, 12, was hooked.

“He came home after roasting and made us buy him his own roaster,” said his mother, Kathi Caldwell.

Starting in February, the Caldwell family sells chile plant seedlings along the Rio Grande valley as far south as Socorro and as far north as Pojoaque.

Donovan hopes to follow in his elders’ footsteps and continue growing chile with the family business, Rio Grande Greenhouses.

“Chile goes from the plant, to the gunny sac, to the roaster, to the peeler, to the mouth.”

UNM dedicated a wing on the third floor of the Centennial Engineering Center Aug. 23 to a small, but still emerging branch of science.

The nanomaterials and nano-medicine lab is a major initiative that involves federal and state funding, along with grants, and features collaborative efforts from different academic disciplines at UNM, including the Cancer Center and the Department of Chemical and Nuclear Engineering, as well as Sandia National Laboratories.

Catalin Roman, dean of the School of Engineering, said he is excited about the potential for this laboratory and that having joint partnerships is important for the future.

“In the long term it is going to be critical for the engineering school and the medical school to come together and build joint pro-grams and make joint investments in research,” Roman said.

The ongoing collaborative ef-fort, which began three years be-fore the lab was dedicated to nano-science, is already yielding results.

Jeffrey Brinker, a distinguished UNM professor and Sandia fellow, and UNM Cancer Center Director Cheryl Willman have been working together to create a groundbreaking concept that will deliver tretments to cancer patients through nanotechnology.

“We’re making particles that are very small so they can pen-etrate throughout the body, and they have within them very small

pores that can be loaded with var-ious types of cargos, let’s say che-motherapeutic agents, or perhaps what’s called small interfering RNA or DNA plasmate,” Brinker said.

She said the problem with cur-rent treatments, such as chemo-therapy, is that the drug has tox-ic effects not only on the cancer but on other parts of the body. The treatment designed by UNM researchers, called a “protocell,” targets the specific cancer and binds itself to it, while remaining harmless to other tissues.

“Our technology — at least as tested in cell cultures — was some-thing like nearly 1 million times more efficient than the current FDA-approved approach,” Brinker said.

Their work, published in a pres-tigious journal called “Nature Ma-terials” in April, has also drawn the attention of several pharmaceuti-cal companies.

“We’ve been getting calls from big biotech companies,” Willman

said in an interview with New Mexico Business Weekly. “It could be a major industry for New Mexico. I would love to see that happen. We would like to get venture capitalists on board to do it here.”

Brinker, who has spent decades working on building materials that are structured on one-billionth of a meter (a nanometer) helped lead the drive to get funding to create this laboratory.

“Our technology is one of the main areas of research we’ll be conducting in that laboratory to develop this protocell and a parti-cle drug delivery agent,” he said.

This work has also earned the UNM two grants, totaling $4 million, from the National Cancer Institute’s Alliance for Nanotechnology in Cancer. Other members of that alliance include schools such as Harvard, MIT, Cal Tech, Northwestern.

“We’re part of this alliance with these other very famous universi-ties,” Brinker said. “I think that’s great for the state, I think it’s great for UNM’s reputation, and I think it has exciting prospects for im-pacting cancer. We have technolo-gy that could be a game changer.”

At the nanomaterials and nano-medicine lab, students from high school to the post-doctoral lev-el will have the opportunity to be mentored under the tutelage of se-nior researchers.

“Think of it as if you were a stu-dent in physics and you had an op-portunity to work with Einstein,” Roman said. “You may not get a Nobel Prize, but your horizons would be incredibly opened.”

Donation to aid Mexican students

“In the long term it is going to be critical for the engineering

The Mexican consulate in Albuquerque granted UNM and the UNM Foundation $50,000 for student scholarships during a press conference Wednesday.

The Institute for Mexicans Abroad of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Mexico donated a total of $70,000 for three scholarship funds: $50,000 for the UNM Foundation, $10,000 for La Plaza de Encuentro and $10,000 for the CNM Foundation.

The $50,000 UNM received was matched by a private donors, which will allow 50 UNM students

to receive scholarships for this semester and next semester.

The donation was made to im-prove higher education opportu-nities for Mexican immigrants and students from immigrant families in the United States. Mexicans liv-ing abroad and Mexican-Ameri-cans are also eligible for funds.

“This important donation will provide support to students who are not only bilingual, but bicultur-al,” said Eliseo “Cheo” Torres, UNM vice president for Student Affairs. “These students will be uniquely prepared to contribute positively to the future of our community.”

Mauricio Ibarra Ponce de Leon, Consul of Mexico in Albuquerque

representative, said helping ad-vance Mexican students will also advance the economy and culture of Mexico.

By partnering with UNM, IME is hoping to make its vision of strengthening literacy and edu-cation of Mexican immigrants a reality.

Mexican immigrant and student Jose Ogaz said he hopes the schol-arships will help promote a positive image of Mexicans in the United States.

“I am really pleased to hear the Mexican government, through var-ious institutions, is giving financial support to Mexican students,” he said.

Editor,

I read with interest the article in Tuesday’s Daily Lobo, “Reckless skaters escape penalties.”

One of my student employees was recently hit by someone on a skateboard. Robert Burford in the Dean of Students Office said he had only received a “few” complaints, and then goes on to say that a name is needed to file a complaint. I can see how a name might be needed to address a reckless skater issue, but how is one supposed to get this name?

Then, if you happen to get a name, the process is long and drawn out, with letters and information going back and forth, and all for results that could end up being a warning to suspension (how often does suspension happen?!) with no real consequences to the skater or compensation to the victims. I have a suggestion that might alleviate some of the recklessness: How about licensing

skateboards for use on the campus? A small fee could cover the expense. It

could take the form of a brightly colored badge with a large number that could be read at a distance. Skateboarders would have to wear it when skateboarding. It would at least bring some measure of rec-ognition that they have some responsibility to use their skateboards in a safe manner.

There has to be real consequences for change to happen. Obviously there is a seg-ment of the population that needs real con-sequences to become civilized enough to interact with others on an adult level and be responsible for their actions.

UNM faculty

Editor,

I would like to respond to an article from last Wednesday, “Regents approve Master Plan, discuss funding,” which said that stu-dent engagement in the University’s Master Plan was “comfortable” and that UNM has tried “diligently to engage” with students in this very crucial plan.

Firstly, the idea that students’ input into the Master Plan would be listened to was dismissed in the first few paragraphs of the article when it told us that the amendment in the Master Plan for a new recreation center was voted down by a 67 percent majority of UNM students.

This tells us that even when students’ input is asked for, it is disregarded. Thus it is hard for me to agree with student regent Jacob Wellman when he said that students had already been reached out to through a

website where students could leave com-ments on the Master Plan.

I think most students would not qualify having a comment section on a website as the University trying to engage students in their 10-15 year Master Plan. In addition, it seems that, judging from the regents ig-noring the majority vote against the new recreation center, even if students had flocked to the comment page of this web-site, their opinions would likely have been overlooked.

I can only hope that the University and the Board of Regents do not continue to consider a comment area on a website a diligent way to engage students, and that in the future they work harder to make sure that students, who are paying greatly for their education, should be able to have a say in where their money goes.

Last week I read an article in the Albuquerque Journal that stated one in four UNM freshmen from 2010 did not return to the University to continue his or her studies in 2011.

I thought to myself, “Hey, this is not good news for UNM. I wonder what Schmidly’s administration has to say about this, and even more importantly, what are they go-ing to do to keep freshmen in school?”

Further in the article there was a re-sponse by Terry Babbitt, the associate vice president of Enrollment Management, and his response did not surprise me. He said that it was likely a consequence of last fall’s record-size freshman class, which was less prepared for college-level work.

That’s cool. Blame the retention problem on the poor-performing student, and that way you do not have to do anything to correct this situation. It gets even better: Later on in the article, Babbitt states that the two personnel who let all of these poor-performing students get into UNM (the former provost and past vice president of enrollment) have since left for other jobs.

For those in the general public who do not believe that it is entirely the poor-performing student’s fault, again, those who share responsibility for this situation are gone, and the problem is solved. The final piece of the Schmidly administration’s

politically correct, male-bovine-piece-of-fecal-matter response is that these senior personnel acted alone when they changed admissions policies, and the great Schmidly did not order this change in policy.

The one thing that I learned from this response is that at least Schmidly’s admin-istration is consistent. That is, it has the same amount of contempt for the general public of New Mexico as it does for the fac-ulty, staff and students at UNM.

A positive point that I saw from this ar-ticle was that the Albuquerque Journal also interviewed Interim Provost Chaouki Abdallah. He stated that he felt academic preparation isn’t the only factor that influ-ences retention. He is an engineer, and en-gineers like to know the facts before they comment on a topic.

This is different from the rest of Schmidly’s administration, which pulls fecal matter from its rectum. What he said was true; there is not a single reason

why approximately 900 students did not return for their sophomore year. There are probably three to four top reasons.

To me, it sounded like he had some ideas, but he wanted more information be-fore he developed and presented a path forward. From the article, I also got the feeling that he had students in mind. He said there are also economic or family situ-ations that can contribute to student deci-sions to not come back. He further stated UNM is evaluating programs to address those students’ needs.

Again, it sounded like he had some ideas as to why students don’t come back, and it also sounded like he had some so-lutions that could be put in place to raise the freshman retention rate at UNM. If he could put in place a cost-effective program that would address one or two of the rea-sons why freshman aren’t coming back and maybe keep an additional 100-150 or so students in school, that would be real progress.

It is unreal to expect that the University can retain all of its freshmen, but it has to retain more than it is now.

From what I read, I am starting to respect Chaouki Abdallah. He appears to be different from the rest of Schmidly’s administration in that he wants to tell the truth, and he also has the students’ better interests in mind. We will see how long he lasts.

Both Roybal and Jaeger said they were impressed with the facilities schools had for honors students.

“I really liked the honors dorms concept,” Jaeger said. “It really cre-ated a community for a specific group of people.”

A task force formed last year con-cluded that UNM should take steps to establish an honors college. The program is currently housed in the basement of Student Health and Counseling.

Roybal, who took part in two of the trips, said she would like to see a more closely consolidated honors program, such as the one at Arizona State University, which she said is ideal for student success.

“The Barrett Honors College (at Arizona State) is its own facility,” she said. “It has a dining hall, their res-idence halls, faculty offices, class-rooms, everything a student who is very, very focused on academics would need. I think our students de-serve that. “

GPSA president Katie Richardson said she visited ASU and UNLV in the same day.

“I think that an honors dorm might serve to attract excellent stu-dents to UNM,” Richardson said. “My concern with both the hon-ors dorm and the (proposed) hon-ors college, is whether they will be able to serve first-generation col-lege students and underrepresent-ed groups.”

She said the ultimate question is where the funds will come from.

”We have to ask the question of whether students want to pay for such facilities,” Richardson said.

Roybal said she has already ap-proached Provost Chaouki Abdallah with ideas on improving the hon-ors facilities, but processes such as these don’t happen right away.

“Unfortunately, these aren’t ideas that can happen overnight,” she said. “But we’re absolutely hav-ing discussions on how to bring this to UNM.”

Peace programs host fairby Stephanie Hoover

Students and staff interested in all areas of social justice gathered in the SUB Wednesday for the International Day of Peace.

The sixth annual UNM Peace Fair was put on by the Peace Studies Program, an interdisciplinary program in which students can earn a minor or a certificate.

Les Fields, Peace Studies direc-tor, said the Day of Peace provides a harmless place to talk about conflict.

“We want to create a safe place

for students to talk about issues of conflict without any kind of con-tention around it, and have stu-dents talk about what it’s like to live in conflict,” he said.

Desi Brown, a Peace Studies ad-viser and instructor, said the fair was about bringing together differ-ent social justice groups on cam-pus to meet each other. He said there are nearly 30 different so-cial justice groups on campus and he wants them to coordinate and work together.

He says the goal of the Peace Studies program is to get people to think critically and ask questions.

“Peace is a really active word,” he said, “Most people are really re-active and don’t address the root of the problem in conflicts.”

The fair featured nine different groups, such as Justice for Mexican Asylum Seekers, Buddhist Club and UNM Fair Trade Initiative.

Savannah Guglielmo said she is currently taking a peace studies class and enjoyed seeing the groups available to students at UNM.

“I hope that people start recog-nizing peace around the world and start taking the steps necessary to achieve it, because we all share the same planet,” she said.

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama says he wants to make sure millionaires are taxed at higher rates than their secretaries. The data say they already are.

“Warren Buffett’s secretary shouldn’t pay a higher tax rate than Warren Buffett. There is no justifi-cation for it,” Obama said as he an-nounced his deficit reduction plan this week. “It is wrong that in the United States of America, a teacher or a nurse or a construction worker who earns $50,000 should pay high-er tax rates than somebody pulling in $50 million.”

On average, the wealthiest people in America pay a lot more in taxes than the middle class or the poor, ac-cording to private and government data. They pay at a higher rate, and as a group, they contribute a much larg-er share of the overall taxes collected by the federal government.

The 10 percent of households with the highest incomes pay more than half of all federal taxes. They pay more than 70 percent of federal income taxes, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

In his White House address on Monday, Obama called on Con-gress to increase taxes by $1.5 tril-lion as part of a 10-year deficit reduc-tion package totaling more than $3 trillion. He proposed that Congress overhaul the tax code and impose what he called the “Buffett rule,” named for the billionaire investor.

The rule says, “People making more than $1 million a year should not pay a smaller share of their in-come in taxes than middle-class families pay.” Buffett wrote in a re-cent piece for The New York Times that the tax rate he paid last year was lower than that paid by any of the other 20 people in his office.

“Middle-class families shouldn’t pay higher taxes than millionaires

and billionaires,” Obama said. “That’s pretty straightforward. It’s hard to ar-gue against that.”

There may be individual mil-lionaires who pay taxes at rates low-er than middle-income workers. In 2009, 1,470 households filed tax re-turns with incomes above $1 mil-lion yet paid no federal income tax, according to the Internal Revenue Service. But that’s less than 1 percent of the nearly 237,000 returns with in-comes above $1 million.

This year, households making more than $1 million will pay an av-erage of 29.1 percent of their income in federal taxes, including incomes taxes, payroll taxes and other taxes, according to the Tax Policy Center, a Washington think tank.

Households making between $50,000 and $75,000 will pay an aver-age of 15 percent of their incomes in federal taxes.

The busy rustling of an artist at work echoes from the cobwebby walls of the “workshop,” a decrepit garage with a makeshift wooden entrance built into the large automat-ic door. Inside, the artist fastens roses to a headband and puts the finishing touches on a flowering branch. An emp-ty bottle of Jim Beam lays on the floor — presumably just another found object with which to make a prop.

This is where the final preparations are being made for the Saturday production of “Ash Tree,” an unorthodox play dealing with themes of childhood and loss, said Abe Jallad, the producer of the show.

“What the play capitalizes on is showing loss in all of its forms, from losing a toy to losing something that’s more tangible; something that’s more living, something that’s more meaningful,” he said.

Following the story of three young sisters who have lost their mother, the play is based on the playwright Georgina Escobar’s childhood hardships, and she said she loves this kind of writing process.

“I was basically taking the experience and dramatizing it and playing with the elements of fantasy and the hypnot-ic journey,” she said. “I’m in love with stories. I’ve always been a storyteller before, and the theater was, from an ear-ly age, the place where I felt most comfortable. I feel like this dramatic writing is the place where my creative input goes beyond just the page.”

Escobar has an master’s in dramatic writing from UNM, and she wrote “Ash Tree” while in graduate school.

New York-based actress Mindy Leanse said she was drawn to “Ash Tree” because of Escobar’s gift with lan-guage in expressing the fantastical elements of story.

“I think Georgina’s writing is really spectacular. She’s got such a knack for dialogue, and what I think this play does is suspend your imagination and believability,” Leanse said. “A lot of times in contemporary theater, it’s about reality all the time, but this is a beautiful blend of reality and imagi-nation, and I think she really plays with the magic of the world.”

For example, Jallad said one of the characters is a gar-den gnome who is more like a spider, and the ash tree where the mother’s ashes are placed is a portal between reality and fantasy.

Although the play deals primarily with children’s per-spectives of the world, Escobar said “Ash Tree” is not just for young audiences — the play has different messages for different generations.

“I would really love to have the adults in the audience walk away with a feeling of their inner child being awak-ened, and the children in the audience feel the adult part of them bringing consciousness to things like loss,” she said. “Imagination and believing and theater can be the place for healing.”

Jallad said physical age was a negligible factor in relat-ing to the play’s themes, because it offers a unique experi-ence for each viewer.

“More than anything it’s theater for the young of heart, and I think that’s something you can’t qualify with years,” he said. “It’s something you have to feel in your heart of hearts. It’s a very profound script, but the simplicity lies in the elegance that anyone can understand it, from a 5-year-old to a 55-year-old.”

While the play is accessible to a young audience, Leanse said Escobar didn’t shy away from the more melancholic elements of life when writing it.

“The moral of the story is that life has to go on,” Leanse said. “No matter what happens you have to take it and go on with your life, and it’s a hard lesson, but I think she has illustrated it well. And I think it’s really important for kids to see that everything doesn’t always happen the way it does in a fairy tale.”

As an actress, Leanse, 23 years old, said the relation-ship between childhood and adulthood is played out with-in her own personal portrayal of her character, a 7-year-old child.

“I’m a woman now, so I’ve got this woman’s body, and I’ve had to fill myself into the body, so now it’s like revert-ing back,” Leanse said. “It’s challenging. I think the physi-cality is the hardest thing for me.”

The play is not only unorthodox in its portrayal of youth, but also in the more technical aspects of production. Al-though it is supported by multiple theater groups around Albuquerque, the show has absolutely no funding; the ac-tors were given about 25 total hours of rehearsal time, and the ‘stage’ is an outdoor courtyard between the Student Health Center and Mesa Vista Hall.

“This is the Rubik’s Cube of productions, really,” Esco-bar said. “It has all the colors, and we’ve been twisting that cube trying to mesh the colors, and we’re getting there, and we’re doing well, but it’s not customary.”

Jallad said that although this production of “Ash Tree” is unique, theater in general has the unifying quality of a powerful mode of expression.

“If we can go to places where people themselves are scared to go, whether it be an imaginary place or an emo-tional place, if we as artists have the nerve to go there, then I think emotionally speaking our profession is justified, because we can go to those places where maybe it hurts or go to those places where maybe it’s lovely, lovelier than we’ve ever imagined before,” Jallad said.

Playwright shares process, memories

Dylan Smith / Daily Lobo

A toy plane sits idly during rehearsal Wednesday night in Mesa Vista courtyard. The play, “Ash Tree,” features a colorful array of props and costumes that reinforce themes of childhood and fantasy.

by Nicole [email protected]

“Ash Tree” author Georgina Es-cobar was born and raised in Ciu-dad Juarez, Mexico. She uses her plays to describe the Mexico in which she grew up.

Escobar relates her plays to her personal life, chronicling events such as the death of her mother in “Ash Tree.” She has a master’s de-gree in dramatic writing from UNM and is an up-and-coming play-wright who has already received numerous awards for her work.

Q: What is your writing process and how has it developed into what it is?

A: Well, it’s di� erent for every play. Mostly I put myself through experiments with them, so for one play I did the whole wake-up-at-four-in-the-morning-for-� ve-days-a-week thing and tried to write the play that way. I think that was part of my master’s (degree), to � gure out what my process was … “Ash Tree” was incubated at home, so they all have their own process, I guess.

Q: So all of these had di� erent processes behind them?

A: One of the goals that I had when I started my master’s (was) to try to � nd the discipline, because I know I have what my professors call “monkey brain,” so I jump from a lot of projects, and I do a lot of the visual stu� .

Q: How does each di� erent writing process a� ect the corresponding play? Why was “Ash Tree” written from home?

A: � e truth of the matter is, what I � nd works the best for me is I cre-ate the world visually and tangibly. I turn whatever writing room I’m using or whatever space or what-ever I’m carrying in my purse into things that relate to that play.

Q: What drew you to writing as an art form?

A: I had tried acting before, and I

do enjoy it sometimes, and I am an extremely visual person, and I do like the discipline of sketching and painting and sculpting and all that, but for some reason … stories are what inspired me … It was just sec-ond nature to try to understand the world as a fantastical narrative.

Q: How do the themes of “Ash Tree” � t into your own personal life?

A: One of the risks I run in talk-ing about my writing with certain directors is they want to see the parallels, and they want to play those parallels because they think that’s what I want. It’s not; I mean, obviously I’m writing � ction, but it’s inspired by real events.

So in the case of “Ash Tree,” the characters are very similar. I think they’re about one year o� from what me and my sisters were when we lost our mother, and their per-sonalities are not carbon copies but rather blurred out copies of our personalities exaggerated and � c-tionalized, obviously.

Q: Has writing helped you cope with this kind of loss, or does it make it more di� cult?

A: I think in every form of art-making, I am coping with who I am as a person. It’s so removed. I mean, especially for me with the loss of my mother, (it) is so removed by years that it didn’t upset me in the sense that I was like barely hearing something …

But what it does do, especially this piece, is truly give my family an understanding of what it is to be a playwright. Although they’re very supportive, we’re an old-school Catholic Mexican family, and they are very cultured and well-read in the arts, but they didn’t really un-derstand what playwrighting was.

It wasn’t until this play came to life, and I shared a copy with them, that they were truly able to under-stand perhaps what you’re going at, which is the healing qualities of writing.

Blogosphere lacks perspective, accuracyby Felipe Medina-

[email protected]

In many ways, the Internet is becoming akin to cable television: There’s plenty of content, but little substance. Faced with more competition, the future of blogs remains a mystery unless it can work out these kinks.

As the number of blogs continues to escalate, quality is drowned out by an inundation of unremarkable and gimmicky writing.

An article in U.S. News and World Report titled “12 Ways Blogging Increases Your Job Prospects” cites a Blog Pulse statistic that claims there are 168 million blogs on the Internet, a number that grows by the minute.

In a perfect world, the

increased content would create a more competitive environment that would in turn foster and reward quality over quantity. But it hasn’t worked out that way, at least not yet.

Instead, media consumers find a hostile, cut-throat atmosphere that rewards immediacy over more thoughtful, reasoned discourse.

Ironically, it’s this same immediacy that saturates the Web with reactionary analysis that brought blogs to prominence.

Before the rise of the blog, daily newspapers reported on news that was often ‘a day late and a dollar short.’

The advantage of blogs was that they provided news and commentary in real time.

Popular blogger Andrew Sullivan, in an essay for The Atlantic titled “Why I Blog,” acknowledges this change, though

he deems it an advantage rather than a hindrance.

“We bloggers have scant opportunity to collect our thoughts, to wait until events have settled and a clear pattern emerges,” Sullivan wrote. “And with that level of timeliness, the provisionality of every word is even more pressing — and the risk of error or the thrill of prescience that much greater.”

Therein lies the problem.To blog is to instantly react to

the most up-to-date news, but how can someone write with any sort of perspective five minutes after an event?

More often than not, the reactionary analysis must be polarizing in order to attract attention.

Aside from a few outlets, one being ProPublica.org, traditional reporting is left to the titans of

old media such as The New York Times, The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal, while blogs take small reports out of a paper and provide “analysis.”

This creates a lot of unoriginal, redundant content.

Visit the DailyKos.com, a left-leaning blog site, and you’ll find an array of rants about President Obama’s most recent blunder or his most recent accomplishment. The same can be said of right-leaning websites such as RedState.com or the DailyCaller.com.

In a sense, the incentives for bloggers are messed up. The medium, as it exists today, rewards sensational headlines and search-engine-optimized hypertext.

Because the content is unoriginal, the majority of bloggers resort to using sensational headlines designed to

increase the number of page views for their site, thereby increasing their profit generated through advertising.

Whether someone hangs around to read the entirety of the post is irrelevant, because page views are all that matter. A company won’t pay to advertise on a blog if no one is reading it.

Why worry about getting your facts straight when all you need to do is write a headline like “Obama holds secret meeting with terrorists” and receive 100-fold hits?

This results in fewer meaningful stories.

Long-form and investigative journalism have very few online outlets where commentary reigns. One reason is that it’s expensive to do both kinds, but also that the Internet fuels our cultural ADHD.

Zach Gould / Daily LoboYaeko Miyazato practices in the style of dance from Okinawa. The dance will be featured at the Aki Matsuri Japanese fall festival this Sunday.

by Felipe [email protected]

The Far East can be found right here in Albuquerque.

Aki Matsuri, the Japanese fall festival sponsored by the New Mexico Japanese American Cit-izens League is this Sunday at the National Hispanic Cultural Center.

The NM JACL, a civil rights and education organization, hosts Aki Matsuri every year to teach and share Japanese culture with the community, said Calvin Ko-bayashi, NM JACL treasurer. The festival simultaneously enter-tains and helps preserve Japanese culture.

The festival features Okinawa dancing, Taiko drumming and singing. There are also martial arts demonstrations, including kendo, judo and karate, as well as weapons demonstrations.

Past themes have included an-ime, calligraphy and ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrange-ment. This year’s theme is kabu-ki, which is a highly stylized Japa-nese dance drama that dates back to the 17th century, Kobayashi said.

In kabuki theater, the actors

wear heavy makeup or masks, and men play both male and female roles. The costumes are elaborate and oversized. Keeping in line with that theme, the festival will be showing a traditional kabuki film from Japan with English sub-titles and narration.

Esther Churchwell, NM JACL board member, said that in ad-dition to cultural sharing, Aki Matsuri allows attendees to get a better idea of Japan’s history. Al-though there isn’t a large Japa-nese population in New Mexico, it has a history of which many peo-ple may not be aware, Churchwell said.

“There was an internment camp in Santa Fe during World War II,” she said. “For years, the Santa Fe Council did not want to recognize that because it was right in the middle of their community.”

But there was a sort of dichoto-my in the Japanese experience in New Mexico, Churchwell said.

Gallup was one of the towns in New Mexico that voted not to send the Japanese to internment camps, she said.

“We are very much concerned about the civil and human rights of everyone, not only Japanese

Americans, and that’s because of what happened to the Japanese Americans during World War II,” Churchwell said.

Kobayashi said the NM JACL also has a long-term goal of cre-ating a Japanese Cultural Center, similar to the National Hispan-ic Cultural Center where the Aki Matsuri will be held this year.

The event serves as a fundrais-er for the effort to build that cul-tural center, which would include a museum, a library and a theater, along with other restaurants and businesses.

Japanese festival celebrates autumn

We want things immediately and succinctly. Throughout their brief history, blog posts seem to get smaller, with less reporting and more linking to other blogs to explain complex ideas. In an article titled “The End of Blogging,” New York Observer reporter Dan Durray interviews Marc Ambinder, a reporter for The National Journal, about blogging.

Ambinder said that the current state of blogging makes it increasingly difficult for writers to carve out names for themselves.

“You’re competitive in terms of getting something first, and then you’re competitive on getting a take that is close to the truth so much as it can be approximated, and then you’re competitive in building and keeping an influential and broad-based

readership,” Ambinder said.And as other social media sites

such as Twitter become more prolific, blogs are competing with even shorter and quicker bits of information, which can mean the future of blogging will reinvent itself in the face of stark competition, or it’ll ramp up its previous efforts, and which really seems more likely?
