For the � rst time since 2009, two UNM students were select-ed as � nalists for the Rhodes scholarship.

Left: Chicago is home to approximately 200 late-night bars. The city grants late-hour liquor licenses to these bars, which allows them to stay open two hours later than usual. Bars in Chicago usually must stop selling liquor after 2 a.m. Monday through Saturday and 3 a.m. on Sunday. To maintain the license, owners must comply with an additional exterior safety plan, which requires precautions like the installation of surveillance cameras at all entrances and exits as well as adequate exterior lighting. Here, a couple enjoys the fall air of an early morning outside one of these late-night bars, The Owl Bar in Logan Square.

Below: The industrial landscape of W. Cermak Road at the edge of Pilsen, Chicago is backlit by the waning autumn light in this Nov. 2 photo. Cermak Road was named after Anton Cermak, a Czech immigrant who was mayor of Chicago from 1931 until he was assassinated in 1933. The bullet that pierced his lung was believed to be meant for President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt with whom Cermak was shaking hands at the time.

Nobody is stressed out by the slew of final projects and life at the end of the semester is just a breeze. Not. Don’t feel pressured to attend all of this week’s freebies — but I bet you’ll end up there, anyway. This week’s events are just that good.

The Weekly FreeGENEALOGY

TODAYThanksgiving may have you wondering how you

could possibly be related to all the crazies in your fam-ily. Usually, tracing your ancestry costs a fortune and a half, but the library offers a free alternative. You can research your family using the library’s resources. Just show up to the Main Library at 501 Copper Ave. N.W. from 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

CENTRAL BUS MEETINGTHURSDAY

If you want a faster, more reliable bus, tell ABQ RIDE all about it at this public meeting. The organization is looking for comments from the public, so don’t be shy. The meeting is at the Alamosa Community Center at 6900 Gonzales Road S.W. at 6 p.m.

CHRISTMAS TREEFRIDAY

No, they aren’t giving away free Christmas trees. But they are decorating a bunch of trees for your view-ing pleasure. Plus there are excerpts from “The Nut-cracker” and a slew of other events over the weekend. The festivities are at Sandia Resort and Casino at 30 Rainbow Road N.E. The tree lighting is at 11 a.m. and the music starts at 6 p.m. Visit CarrieTingleyHospital-Foundation.org for more information.

CHRISTMAS PARADESATURDAY

Santa Claus is making an appearance in Madrid, N.M., this weekend — and in every mall in New Mexico at the same time. But in Madrid there’s also a Scottish marching band, twinkle lights and a lighting ceremony. Anyway, Madrid is also the cutest town ever, according to Editor–in-Chief Liz Cleary. The parade starts on Main Street (Highway 14) in Madrid at 4 p.m.

PUEBLO STORIESSATURDAY

If you need a break from Santa’s jolly ho ho hos and Christmas, check out the Pueblo winter storytelling event. Stories include “Grandmother Spider Brings

the Sun,” “How Rabbit got his Long Ears,” “Dog Tails” and “Star Woman” — no trace of Santa or western religion in any of them. It’s at 11 a.m. at the Indian

Pueblo Cultural Center at 2401 12th Street N.W.

LUMINARIAS SUNDAY

If you want to see Santa out in nature, he’ll also be visiting the Coronado State Monument at 485 Kuaua Road, Bernalillo, this weekend. There will also be lumi-narias, a bonfire, Zia dancers, caroling and hot drinks starting at 5 p.m.

Tamales spice up NM winter

by Lindsey Anderson The Las Cruces Sun-News

LAS CRUCES — Tamale fix-ings cover two long tables in the back corner of Pro’s Ranch Mar-ket: bags of corn husks, stacks of masa mix, tamale pots large and larger.

Shoppers pass by the display, stopping to watch as Olga May and Lala Hernandez demonstrate

the art of tamale making.Hernandez spreads a thin lay-

er of masa on a wet corn husk. May adds a heaping of chicken and green chile filling to each one.

She folds them and wraps them in green and white check-ered paper before placing them in the stack of finished tamales, ready to be steamed and sold in the store or bought by customers for the holidays.

“It is a very popular food in this area, especially around the holidays,” said Karim Martinez, program director and home economist at the Doña Ana County Extension Office.

Tamales season starts at Hal-loween for Pro’s Ranch Market, said Sylvia Madrid, the hot foods manager at the Las Cruces store.

Editor,

I have a few thoughts on the separation of church and state. I think it isn’t OK to force your religion on others in the academic en-vironment, but to exclude all semblance of Christianity is kind of ridiculous. The reason is that when discussing history, literature or other topics, Christianity might come into discussion because it has had far-reaching influence and is mentioned in literature.

The problem that I have is that I had an English teacher at UNM who routinely put down and denigrated Christianity while promoting his communist agenda/beliefs. And I had a teacher at Santa Fe Commu-nity College who put down Christianity. My point is that if you want to keep Chris-tianity out of schools, then please discipline teachers who try to poison students’ minds against Christianity. That isn’t kosher at all.

The school/academic world is a place for open discussion of ideas and not a place to promote one’s own beliefs with students. This includes not trying to influence stu-dents against Christianity.

Also, many young people don’t realize that Christians basically started almost all of the colleges and universities originally in America.

Study the Bible. It has a lot to say about this life. It is a book of wisdom.

Earth’s frozen water is intimately linked to our climate. Snow and ice cool the Arctic and Antarc-tic, helping to drive global weather patterns and ocean circulation. Snow and ice reflect a por-tion of our sun’s radiation away from the planet, so the more surface area they cover, the cooler it keeps the planet, and the less surface area they cover, the warmer the planet will become.

The stability of planetary ice volume has been crucial to the development of human civ-ilization, and the growing threat of an ice-free planet imperils life as we know it. As the oceans warm, the volume of ice that lies below the wa-ter’s surface decreases, resulting in thinner layers that are brittle and more susceptible to acceler-ated melting and disintegration. Sediment at the bottom of warmer waters releases more green-house gases, which go into the atmosphere. As permafrost melts, massive amounts of methane, another greenhouse gas, are released.

The shrinkage of Himalayan and Peruvian glaciers threatens to deprive many people of the freshwater reservoirs that sustain their commu-nities. The global fishing industry is entirely reli-ant upon the delicate balance of ocean tempera-ture gradients and currents, which distribute the nutrients required to sustain marine life.

It is important to recognize that the ice that has melted and disintegrated in the last decade will not be replaced for many generations — in fact, not for many centuries.

Scientists call the world of snow and ice the cryosphere. From ice cores, they are able to de-termine atmospheric content and global tem-perature for tens of thousands of years, greatly contributing to our knowledge of climate, past and present.

So let’s visit with one of the world’s foremost experts on ice and climate.

Ted Scambos, who holds a doctorate in geol-ogy, is a geochemist and lead scientist at the Uni-versity of Colorado’s National Snow and Ice Data Center, a part of the National Oceanic and Atmo-spheric Administration.

Peter Kindilien: Ted, it was about 10 years ago when your findings first led you to suspect that humans were responsible for much of the

climate change we are seeing, and your research is focused on understanding the structural for-mation of ice shelves and the processes and causes involved with their current accelerated rate of disintegration, correct?

Ted Scambos: Yes, a lot of my work has fo-cused on Antarctica, its ice and especially ice shelves and their disintegration under warm conditions. As for climate change, I would say I learned enough to be convinced by the evidence in the late ‘90s, but events in the early 2000s at both poles really made it clear, and there were several news releases from National Snow and Ice Data Center around that time pointing out the increasing pace of change in the Arctic and Antarctic.

PK: With the mounting evidence pointing to the ominous direction we are headed in, it is ob-vious that the climate deniers have a smaller and smaller probability of being right. Yet their suc-cessful attempts to stifle environmental legisla-tion and industry regulation is a key roadblock to establishing urgently needed economic policies that will reduce our carbon footprint, the United States being one of the top three most-polluting nations. Our policies continue to be based on the less-than-1-percent probability that over 99 per-cent of the scientific experts are wrong.

Could you give us a peek at your vision of how inaction now will affect the world economies in the next 50 years, if the predicted climate change actually occurs?

TS: I think it’s important to recognize that this is the climate policy debate. The skeptic-versus-scientists discussion is driving how our policy and pace of action is unfolding, and it is going to continue to be like this — evolution, not revolu-tion. I think it will play out along the lines of the environmental movement in the ‘70s. There was resistance and backlash, and a lot of discussion that continues to this day, but we are better en-vironmental stewards now than we used to be. Not perfect, but better. I think the problem is that this takes so long to unfold that we really don’t know how much climate trouble we are setting ourselves up for — should we take stronger ac-tion? Will it be Katrinas and wildfires every year in the future? (Scientists) would need to make a very strong case for that if we are going to push the nation and the world to move a lot faster. For now, I think the steady drumbeat of warm

weather, record heat, drought, low ocean ice cover, Greenland’s surface melting and faster ice flow — these news reports only go in one direc-tion: The planet is warming past historical norms within human memory. These events will slowly move public opinion towards favoring carbon management. At least, I hope so.

PK: As a leading scientist intimately involved in climate research, and as a family man, how would you personally assess national and inter-national political will, up to this point, in address-ing the scientific community’s concerns about the increasing emission of greenhouse gases?

TS: It’s low. A bit too low, but I think many scientists recognize that now is a tricky time to advocate big changes in energy infrastructure. There is no doubt that a lot of our response this century is going to be “adaptation”: move the crops around, conserve water, more air condi-tioner sales, insurance rate changes, manage the disasters one by one. But, as people really see the progression that is unfolding, it will increasing-ly include long-term changes in energy genera-tion. One of the good things about the Internet and global connectivity is that we hear about ef-fects everywhere, from the Arctic to Albuquer-que. When record events continue to happen globally, people will think of action. As you point out, this is something we as a society are doing for our children and grandchildren. They can be very effective lobbyists.

PK: According to a recent TakePart.com ar-ticle, “Climate Change Deniers in the House of Representatives Targeted for Defeat,” the League of Conservation Voters, a nonprofit environmen-tal advocacy group, “is pouring $1.5 million into a campaign to defeat five of the most outspoken climate deniers currently in the House.” Do you think this sort of grassroots/super-PAC environ-mental-policy pressure will become integral to moving our government out of its laissez-faire attitude toward climate crises management, and towards defeating special-interest PAC influence against responsible long-term environmental policies?

TS: I probably should not comment on this. It’s one strategy. I’d rather see both parties accept the evidence and continue the debate on the ba-sis of “now what should we do about it?” There is plenty of room for disagreement and policy re-finement in that framework.

upon us, and that’s one of our top sellers,” she said.

The tamale-making duo be-gan the demonstration the first full week in November and will continue to January, May said.

Though Madrid prefers most of the tamales to be made in-store, she often has to order a few boxes from the company’s Phoe-nix warehouse to meet holiday demand.

Madrid was the top seller when she worked in the chain’s Albuquerque location, selling between 972 dozen and 1,500 dozen tamales. She did not have estimates on sales here because she recently relocated to the Las Cruces store.

Tamales mark the holidays, said Reyna Salinas, 27, a graphic designer who remembers watch-ing her mom and grandma make tamales as a child.

“I would just stare at them be-cause of how fast they would go, and then the way they fold the corn husk around — I didn’t get it, how they could put all that stuff into a corn husk and get it to stay,” Salinas said. “Mine would just fall apart.”

Her mother makes the tama-les entirely from scratch, driving to Juárez for masa and to Hatch for fresh chiles to roast. She sells the tamales as well, but keeps the sweet ones for the family.

“I know a lot of other family

friends, that they get together the night before Christmas or Thanksgiving and get together and make them,” Salinas said. “It’s usually a bonding-type thing and getting to spend time with the loved ones around you.”

Tamales date back to 5,000 or 7,000 B.C. to the Aztecs, Mayans and Incas, Martinez said. They are still made up and down the hemisphere with corn husks or banana leaves, depending on the region, she said.

“Traditionally, here, you’ll see the masa, the corn meal mixture, and you’ll have red chile or green chile,” Martinez said. “But you can make them with beans, you can make them with squash, you

can make them sweet.”The lard or shortening-filled

masa is high in fat, she said, but OK for infrequent eating on spe-cial occasions like holidays, bap-tisms or weddings.

“Since it’s for a special occa-sion, it’s a special food you can indulge in on the holidays,” she said.

At Pro’s Ranch, May and Mar-tinez answer questions from shoppers, explaining the process, the ingredients, whether their ta-males are sold in the store’s hot foods section. (They are.)

“Now I know where to get them,” one shopper remarks.

Pro’s Ranch sweet pineap-ple and strawberry tamales sell

for $12.99 per dozen and their chicken, pork and beef tamales for $14.99 per dozen. Individual tamales cost $1.39.

Tamale seekers would be wise to place a phone order at least 48 hours in advance, no matter where they plan to order them from, requesting the number and type of tamales, and specify-ing when they would like to pick them up.

Customers can freeze tamales for up to three months, and can reheat them in the microwave or steam them, Madrid said.

For now, she said she has plenty of tamales in stock.

“That’s one thing I try not to sell out of,” she said.

What will my true love give to me? $107k in giftsby Kevin Begos

The Associated Press

PITTSBURGH — Add seven swans, six geese and five golden rings to the list of Christmas gifts that cost more than they did a year ago.

And if you get all 364 items repeat-ed throughout “The Twelve Days of Christmas” carol, you’ll pay 6.1 per-cent more this year, according to the so-called Christmas Price Index that

PNC Wealth Management updates annually. That comes to $107,300.

“The rise is larger than expected considering the modest economic growth we’ve had,” said Jim Duni-gan, managing executive of invest-ments for PNC. He noted the gov-ernment’s Consumer Price Index has risen just 2 percent in the 12 months before September.

Thrifty shoppers may find some reasons for cheer. Six items

mentioned in the song haven’t gone up in price: maids-a-milking, ladies dancing, lords-a-leaping, calling birds, turtle doves and the partridge. The eight maids-a-milking still cost just $58 because the minimum wage hasn’t risen.

Twelve drummers drumming ($2,775.50) and eleven pipers piping ($2,562) might also be considered relative bargains compared to seven swans, which will set you back $7,000.

Dunigan said the 2011 drought caused the prices of some birds to soar, partly because of corn and other feed costs.

“The geese were up 29.6 percent, and swans were up 11 percent,” Dunigan said, adding that none of the gifts in the song went down in price this year.

The price of a pear tree is $189.99, an 11.8 percent jump from last year’s $169.99. Five gold rings jumped 16.3 percent this year, to $750, and three

French hens are now $165, instead of $150.

The $15 partridge is the cheapest item, and swans the most expensive, at $1,000 each.

Shoppers who turn to the Internet will pay a bit more for the gifts. Buying one set of the core items in each verse costs $24,431 in traditional stores this year, but $40,440 online. Part of that difference is the extra expense of ship-ping live birds, Dunigan said.

by Graham [email protected]

With � anksgiving now behind us, we have broken through to the De-cember shopping season with Black Friday, a day marked by the worst thing about America.

Black Friday: a time when the ab-solute worst of humanity and Amer-ica is fully, consistently and annually on display.

In Tallahassee, Fla., a man and a woman were shot in a dispute over a parking spot outside a Walmart.

In Kentwood, Mich., police pep-per-sprayed shoppers throwing punches at each other at a JCPenney store at about 1:30 a.m.

In Covington, Wash., two Walmart shoppers were run down in a parking lot. Local news reported a 71-year-old drunk driver hit the couple as they were walking toward the store.

At a Sears in Texas, two cus-tomers reportedly got into a fight, sparking a stampede that injured another person. Police said a man with a concealed-car-ry permit pulled a gun out to get

to the front of the line.And that was just this year.� ere are now endless YouTube

videos nary a week old depicting mass � ghts between people desper-ate for smartphones and grabbing boxes, shoving and screaming and snatching seemingly for life itself.

A woman from Altamonte Springs, Fla., was arrested after police reported she refused to get in line and “began screaming and throwing the merchandise she was carrying to the � oor.” � at shopper, Samantha Chavez, is now immortalized in a short and distressing video of her rolling around on the � oor screaming “I didn’t do anything” as police cu� her.

Like the certainty of drunk driv-ing on New Year’s Eve, Black Friday is blessed with the certainty of violence. � is is usually — and rather unique-ly — accomplished in Black-Friday fashion through the “stompling” (a combination of “stomp” and “tram-ple”) that occurs when the rushing deluge � ghts to enter a store. Really, it’s often Walmart.

In 2008, a Walmart employee was stompled to death when a crowd of

over 2,000 freezing, frenzied shop-pers smashed through the store’s glass doors shortly before 5 a.m. � e mob refused to stop or acknowledge the man who was crushed. Emergen-cy personnel attempting to save him could not reach him and were pushed aside and ignored. Other people, in-cluding a pregnant woman, were in-jured and hospitalized after being shoved to the � oor and overrun.

It’s so shocking it resembles par-ody. � e riots of townsfolk in “� e Simpsons” shouldn’t be so terrifying-ly accurate.

What is most terrifying, though, is that it is not a � uke. It isn’t random. America is a large, young country in which we are accustomed to horrify-ing violence, from public shootings to hate crimes to serial murders. You can argue it’s due to the “law of av-erages,” that with so many people, at one time or another, unreasonable acts will occur. � ere will always be someone crazy enough, and even-tually that person will have a gun and act.

But the insanity of Black Friday isn’t random. It will happen next year, too.

Violence typifi es Black Friday

Alex Slitz/ AP photo via Daily NewsA crowd gathers as security guards break up a � ght between shoppers waiting in line just as the doors open for Black Friday shopping at a Target in Kentucky on Thursday. Stores typically open in the wee hours of the morning on Black Friday — so named because of retail folklore that it is the day when merchants turn a pro� t for the year.
