The village alone cannot pro­vide a satisfactory solution for asecond road in and out ofUpperCanyon. It does not have theland to widen Main Road, createsafe zones, or provide for a sec­ondroadwithout majorindemni­fication ofprivate property. It issafe to assume Ruidoso cannotsolve the problem without arequestto use U.S. Forest Land.

Forthe past 10yearsthe term"expert" has beenloosely usedtobolster minimalist arguments fornot providing an alternate es­cape route for Upper Canyon. Itis time to take a broader viewand listen to residents and visi­tors who know intimately theproblems facing Upper Canyon.Experience has clearly shownthat MaiIi Road is inadequate asthe only escape route. It is a dan­gerous and unworthy hypothesisfor alleged "experts" to suggestotherwise.

Shortly thereafter, SmithEngineering ofRoswell waspaid$70,000 to engineer an alterna­tive escape route from UpperCanyon, nottogive an opinion asto the advisability of the plan.This company hasnoexpertise infire safety management, yet itmade the "No Build" recommen­dation that a secondary routewas not needed and that MairtRoad could be fixed.

Toassume thatthe Upper Canyon Citizen Es­cape Route Committee's recom­mendations regarding possiblealternate routes were made with­out expert advice is absurd, Foranyone to suggest a second es­cape route is not feasible is non­sense. We landed a man on themoon.

In 2004, the Wildland UrbanInterface group created theGreater Ruidoso Area Commun­ity Wildfire Protection Plan.Incredibly, this plan totallyignored the need to consider theinherent fire danger facing resi­dents living in box canyons. Thesame year, the National FireProtection Agency addressed

how someone, voted, you canask him or her why.

Opponents also argue thatopening conference cominitteemeetings would lengthenthem. But the publicwouldn'tbe allowed to comment, onlytoattend and observe, so theonlyfactorirrlongel meetingswould be the legislators them­selves.

In fact, there is no signifi­cant evidence that these orany other predicted dire con­sequences have been a prob­lem in the 43 states thatalready have some form ofopen conference committees.

Opening conference com­rnittees to the public was arecommendation in the 2007report of the independentEthics Reform StudyCommittee co-chaired by for­mer Gov. Gary Carruthers.The legislation actuallypassed in 2007 until someSenate maneuvering led toreconsideration and defeat,both by one vote.

During the debate, one sen­ator said the press only want­ed open conference commit­tees SL they'd have somethingto write about. Such a com­ment raises the question thatif there's someone goingon inconference committees worthwriting about, shouldn't thepublicknow what it is?

AB this is written, two openconference committee bills situnheard and unscheduled inthe Senate Rules Committee ­Rep. Joe Cervantes' HouseBill 393, which has alreadypassed the House 66-0, andSenate Bill 150, sponsored bySen. Dede Feldman, whichhas languished in the commit­tee since the session opened.The fact that half the mem­bers of the Senate RulesCommittee have been consis­tent opponents of open confer­ence committees could be afactor.

The members of the Housemade it clear by their 66-0vote that it's time for NewMexico to join the vast majori­ty of ststes that open theirconference committees to thepublic.

If you believe in govern­ment transparency, if youbelieve that laws should bemade in the open and not insecret, please send that mes­sage to your senators.

Open up conferencecommittee meetings- Guest editorial by Dana L. Bowley -

Ainyone who pays atten­tion to the Legislature

as had this experience:Differing versions of a billpass the House and Senate;the bills go to a conferencecommittee; the bill that comesout is substantially different

----trl>I'!rthetwo"tlmt wentin. -What happened? Hard to

tell. Why? Because NewMexico is among a handful ofstates that close conferencecommittee meetings to thepublic. So what? Depends onwhether you want govern­ment to conduct business inthe open or behind closeddoors.

The perception is that con­ference committees "reconcile"differences between versionsof the same bill. In fact, theyhave considerable power tocraft, legislation. While jointlegislative rules say the con­ference committee can't alterthe bills that cometo it "unlessthe item has been the subjectof a legislative committeehearing during the session,"that's pretty broad language,Nearly anything discussedduring a committee hearing

.can become part of a confer­ence committee's final bill,including ideas that wererejected or ideas brought upsolely for the purpose of pre­serving them for later use inconference.

But when the final billcomes out of conference com­mittee, the House and Senatemust adopt or reject it as pre­sented - no changes.

'rnat's how conference com­mittees can and do make lawin secret, circumventing thedemocraticprocess.

Conference committeeskeep no minutes and thewhole process is conducted inanonymity. The only peoplewho know what happened inthe locked room are the threesenators and three represen­tatives on the committee, andthey're not talking lest theyface retaliation.

All we know is that somehorse-trading occurred, butwe don't know what horseswere traded or who tradedthem.

Opponents argue thatopening conference commit­tees to the public would drivethat horse-trading furtherunderground, implying itcould somehow become moresecret than it already is. Butopening the meetings createsopportunity for shining light,on those underground deals.With open conferencecommit­tees, the six members wouldat a minimum have to vote inpublic. And once you know

"As the gentleman said,it's a way to coverexpensesfor the owners of property.If you make it difficult torent, you will have peoplewho want to divest. Thatwill hurt property valuesand taxes."

Mason contended to callthe' activity residentialamounts to "fibbing."

Task force members,several in the propertymanagement business,estimate Ruidosohas about900 managed propertiesused for nightly rentals and300 handled by owners.He's found those in themanagement business onthe task force "top-notch"people and if ail operatedthe same, no rules probablywouldbe needed, he said.

the herd.Aswe make these choic­

es and state our intentionsthen we can attract thosethings that will bring usinto harmony and balance.'

This is where we con­sciously choose health andwellness; we are not strug­gling against anything.. It works best to focus onwhat you want rather thanon what you do not want.

"Living medicine is aparadigm shift that goesbeyond the scope of compli­mentary and/or alternativemedicine by reuniting theArt of Medicine and theScience of Medicine and bychanging the focus from thekilling of disease to thegrowing of vibrant, wholepeople who are distinctfrom the disease processesthey experience." - DrGladys McGarey

How do we grow vibrantwhole people? Or morespecifically how do yougrow your self to be vibrantand whole?

Suggestions are:

• get plenty of sleep andrest;

• physical exercise 30minutes three times aweek;

• meditate daily;• eat only food (real

food);• Avoidhighly processed

foods and artificial sweet­eners. Stevia is ok.

• Enjoy at least fiveservings of fruits and veg­etables daily;

• Avoid soda drinks;drink at least 10 glasses ofwater a day. .

taking antidepressants atany given time and that atleast another 20 percent"need" antidepressants.

Seniors do not Usuallyuse street drugs but may beabusing prescription med­icatiotiS:-' '

Why are we so unhap­py? Why does the pursuit ofhappiness elude us?

Could it be that we arebombarded with commer­cials that tell us that weare not ok and that we needtheir product to be OK?

We buy their productonly to find out that we arestill not ok and need a big­ger purchase and we areeven then still not OK,leaving us even moreunhappy than before.

Why not get high on liferather than look to thingsoutside ourselves to makeus happy.

Happiness is an insidejob.

What is your passion?What is your vision, yes itis never too late to have apassion and a vision. Whatis your purpose in life?

Are you being of service,first to yourself and then to

. others?Is there meaning to your

life? Find the answer tothese questions and yourhappiness quotient will goup.

Take some time forintrospection. There isalways the choice to ageconsciously or unconscious­ly, to be awake or asleep.

When we are consciouswe can make some con­scious choices on our ownbehalf rather than follow

we can enjoy your years ofwisdom?

So, how do you take careof your body, mind andspirit to maintain healthand wholeness?

First, make ~ choice,state an intention to behealthy.

Then do whatever ittakes to bring your self intoa state of balance and har­

. mony, for when the body isin balance and harmony itwill heal itself.

In our Western cultureit can be difficult to find thetime and space to do so.

It-ean be a challenge toget to that space but onceyou do it is so wonderfulthat you want to be theremost of the time.

How do you get there?There are many paths.You might consider TaiChi, yoga, meditation, con­templative prayer, labyr­inth walks, or spendingtime in nature.

Be in nature and beauty,connect with MotherEarth, turn off the TV andgo outside.

Being still without inter­ruption and disturbance isa beginning.

Watching the news,especiallyjust before you goto bed can be upsetting,putting you into a state ofagitation or fear.

The news is just full offear, sensationalism, andnegativity. It is unlikely toadd to your peace andlongevity.

Life is the pursuit ofhappiness and yet clinicalmedicine reports that 20percent of Americans are

ture where there is anemphasis on being young,beautiful and thin, this canbe a challenge for all of us.

We may need to unplugthe TV and other mediathat uses the young andgorgeous to sell us "stuff"that -we do not even needand can not even use.

I have heard it said thatit takes us until the age of60 to acquire wisdom sowhy not take care of ourhealth and wellness so that

FRIDAY, MARCH 13. 2009

this boy finally realizedhis.head.waabobhing tothe raucous, near-deafen­ing clamoring of some non­descript,contemporary"vocalist."

The ring announcer,Mike Adams, helped tobuild the drama withresounding enunciations ofthe incoming combatants •and introductions of thenecessary ringside person­nel.

Something ~eemedfamiliar. And then I real­ized what it was. It waslike some Las Vegas-styledWWF event you see onTV. Only, in this case, thegladiators on stage weren'tfaking it. It was real com­bat. It was the completepackage. .

The promoter, King ofthe Cage (KOTC), is obvi­ously adept at stagingthese events. I wasimpressed with the split­second efficiencyof the ref­eree in the ring.

He made instant deci­sions on TKOs and tap­outs, saving the partici­pants any further harm.

They called me a fewdays later and asked ifIwas satisfied with myseating.

"Are you kidding," Ireplied. "I used part of thering as my desk to takenotes and I was able toshoot pictures between the

.holes of the fencing. Icould clearly view the fansand watch the happeningsaround me. Being able towitness everything in a360-degree format makesfor a more complete story.Thanks,"

Look,you may believecage fighting, boxing andthe like are anachronisms,or worse yet, atavisticanomalies that date backto the cave man.

But still, they are legal­ly sanctioned sports likehunting, skydiving, et. al.Just as alcohol, smokingand gambling abide, so dopugilistic events. I'veevenheard of runners sufferingheart attacks duringmarathons and yet, nearlyeveryone calls it a healthypursuit.

Hey, Im not a hunter,nor have I ever been, but rdon't begrudge those whoare.

FAME,

When my friends wouldyell over at me. "Mikey,you're a bum," I knew theystill loved me.

There they were -politicians,crooks,police,b90kmakers, lawyers,ne'er-do-wells, has-beens,up-and-comers and losers- all together under oneroof. Youjust never knewwhat was about to hap­pen.

And the nightly enter­taimnent was not just inthe ring, but all aroundyou. I viewed it all inwide-eyed wonderment.

Last Saturday, Iattended the cage fights atthe Inn of the MountainGods.

Last year I took in asimilar event at theOonvention Center inRuidoso. It was OK, butnowhere near like my "olddays" in "da Burgh." Andso I didn't really knowwhat to expect.

I showed up early to getmy ringside press creden­tials. Goodthing. I waitedpatiently for an hour or so.Finally, after I continuallyshowed a pseudo non­plussed attitude, the eventmanager gave me my ownseat at ring-side.

r thinkhe finally real­ized I was one of them,merely masquerading as ajournalist, and let me jointhe anointed few aroundthe stage of combat. (OK,OK, so that probably isn'ttrue, but let me have adream, too.)

Shafts of morning light sift through stained glass windows casting colorfulshadows on the sanctuary. Outside, bells chime; inside the pipes of amightyorgan reverberate with their prelude to the hour of worship. Those entering arefilled with the glory of God and a peace that passes all understanding.

The same glory and peace are present in every form of worship service, inevery type of hOUSi! of worship. When we enter into worship, God's comfortingand encouraging omnipresence instills in us the strength and assurance we willneed in the coming week, creating a buffer zone between us and the stress ofdaily life.

"Ascribe to the Lord the-glory due his name...worship the Lord in thesplendor of his holiness" (I Chronicles 16:9). Worship in God's House this week,

- J. from the Website

Q. During a service; our.pastor pointed out that

pre-printed letters addressedto our govljrnment represen­tatives had been placed inthe pews. He urged everyoneto sign them, urging 11 courseof action that probably mostwould endorse as the moralalternative.

Acknowledging thatalmost half the worshipperswere snowbirds, however, hedidn't encourage these visi­tors to contact their own eon­gressmen/senators about theissue.

He even mentioned thatthe opinions of constituentsinfluence politicians, withthe understanding that theFlorida-polls-wl}uld-itssumeall signees were voters intheir district.

Am I on the side of rightby feeling squeamish that hedidn't urge snowbirds to con­tact their own representa­tives, instead ofurging themto pass as Florida voters?

- Anonymous, BoyntonBeach, Fla.,

A. As far as I know, the First.Amendment guarantee of

freedom ofspeechapplies to al!Americans, includingthose whovacation in Florida.

There's no problemwithyouor anyone writing to any publicofficial about someissue facingthe country.

I'm always defendingtheright of religious folks to influ­ence publicpolicy based on theirunderstanding of the moral,

issues we face as a nation. Theseparation ofchurch and statenever meant, and should nevermean, that the only people witha right to express themselvesinthe public square are those whocan provethey're atheists.

The Rev. Martin Luther KingJr. argued for civil rights legisla­tion based on his beliefthatracial discrimination was notjust wrongbut also a sin againstGod.

However, there is a problemin the case ofyour zealous pas­tor.

Housesof worshipare grant­ed tax exemptionwith theunderstanding that they won'toperate as political action com­mittees for specific candidates.- -If-they-de-se.they-canlose 'their tax-exemptstatus.

If the pastor was just tryingto fire up congregantsabout amoraloutrage, that's fine, legaland unobjectionable.

If,on the other hand, he wascompelling listeners to endorse acandidate's run for office, he wason thin legal ice.

If you feel strongly about themoral issue he raised, write yourownletters to your ownrepre­sentatives and to the Floridapolls, but clearly state your placeof residence.

The five foolish virgins were not pre­pared.

The 13th verse basically saysthat weshould be prepared

becausewe do not knowtheday or hour of Christ'sreturn.

The latest report statesthat "some teen" percent ofAmericans have no religion.

In a previouscolumn, Imade the point that everyone

has a "religion."Whatever beliefsystem

youare committed to is yourreligion. So, everyone has a"religion."

What the survey reallystates is this. "More and moreAmericans are abandoningChristian­ity."

The disregsrd for God. His WordandHisSonis a growing plague in Americaand the world. Noone knows the dateand time ofJesus' return. More andmore people will not be prepared.

Backin the 1980's, a well meaningChristian wrotea bookcalledEighty·eight Reasons Why Christ Will Returnin 1988. WeI!. Jesus didn't. and the nextvolume was titled Eighty·nine ReasonsWhy Christ Will Return in 1989.

The Biblestates that noone willknowthe day or hour of his return.

If you are prepared. you will havehelp for today and hope for tomorrow.

Are you ready?Remembering mydays as a Boy Scout,the motto is "BePrepared."Be prepared for what?

The stock market nosedive?Hurricane Dolly hitting theSacramentos? .

No rain and forest fires?Highgas prices? One almosthas to be a prophet or agenius to be prepared forwhat lifehas to offer.

I remember back in thedays of the Cold War and thefear ofnuclear attack, we weresupposedto have a bombshelter, water and foodstored, radiation detectorsetc.

Thank Godto this pointin time, we have not neededthat preparation.

Global warming warning has gottenfolks buyingcarbonoffsets, cussingC02, and goinggreen.

The old motto, "Be prepared" meansso many different things to so many dif­ferent people.

There are so many "hot button"issues today, that wecan't even knowall of them, much less "be prepared."

There is one "beprepared" item thathas been around for a lOIig, longtime.Jesus is coming back!

The Bibleteaches that we don'tknow when, but we must be prepared.In Matthew 25.Jesus gives the parableof the Wiseand Foolish Virgins.

The fina1 consensus was thatthere was no tellinghowmanyrodeos this pair wouldenter andhow much moneythey'd spend ifthey actually accidentally, in amiracle moment, won something.

In their desperation for prac­tice cattle, they heard none ofthe warning, loaded up andheaded downthe road to pick upthe steers.

On the way back, they ranout ofbeer and had to stop to getanother case, arriving at the rop­ing arena about 11 p.m,

Still needing to practice, theyunloaded the steers, herdedthem into the lead-up alley andjust for a dry run, let one out ofthe chute.

That led to spending the nexthour trying to get this wildCorriente through the strippingchute at the other end of arena.

This went on the better partof the night, as longas the beerheld out anyway.

They disappeared offthe prac­tice circuit for a few weeks, per­haps licking their no-timewounds.

Resurfacing in a flurry ofphone calls to find a ropingarena and cattle they coulduse,the duo admitted to enteringfour PRCArodeosand even theythought they should maybe prac­tice a little.

Darrel was riding ahorse that hadserved him wellinthe arena for at least24years.

Neither horse hadever been behind a barrier, sothe cowboys rigged up a practiceone out of some hay twine and ajump rope they found in one ofthe pickups.

GusHistoria~ and author

'Chuck Hor-nung, whosegreat-great uncle was pres-:ent at Raton that fatefulnight, has recently writtena well-researched anddetailed article about theevents of June 26,1882,Hornung points out that itwas the events of that nightthat led to Raton goingfrom a bustling, thrivingrailroad boomtown to thedeclining place it is today(no offense to anyone fromRaton),

Everyone in the Westwas an entrepreneur inthose days, and GusMentzer was no exception.At the age of 24, he waseither employed by ormore likely, was in partner­ship with a man namedWilliam Burbridge.Whatever the businessarrangement, it was finallydissolved by Burbridge,primarily due to the fact 4

that Gus couldn't stopdrinking and carousing, onboth his own andBurbridge's time. Gus'resentment began to sim­mer.

Gus Mentzer was two

As-e are all acute­I aware, weave plenty of.eird stuff going on a day­i-day basis - all one hasl do is check the newspa­er or the even ing news tonow all about thesevents.

But in the Old West,re media was not what it; today (for better or forverse, I'll let you be theudge) and it was notmcornrnon for there to belifferent versions of thearne story floating about,lepending on what news­raper you were reading.

For example, in the1870s, there was an articlen a London, Englandiewspaper that was down­'ight bizarre for anyonevho studies the history ofhe American West today ­)r lived in it back in thedav,

The article was refer­ring to a shooting involv­ing John Wesley Hardin in .Comanche, Texas in 1874.It stated that the town wasdivided up between "des­peradoes" and "ComancheIndians from Indiana" (thatone being my personalfavorite), with theComanches under thecommand of Hardin and

th~iQr!,~~of _law and ordernowhere to befound. What itwas was anincredibly gar­bled account of'Hardin's shoot­ing of CharlieWebb, a BrownCounty deputysheriff, identify­ing Webb as"Webber." Inany case, youget my point ...

things - a natural-born. slapstick comedian . - ..

(although he and everyoneelse were probablyunaware of this gift at thetime), and a natural-Bornkiller. He may well havealso been an idiot's idiot.But I get ahead of myself.On the evening of June26th, Deputy Sheriff PeteDallman was making hisrounds when he suddenlyfound Gus Mentzer in hisface,

II is unclear as towhether or not there wasany gunplay previous tothis, as at least oneaccount has Mentzerapproaching Dallman witha "smoking" revolver, butapproach him he did, andproceeded to stick his guninto Dallman's ribs. Hedemanded that Dallmansurrender hisweapons,which confused the deputyto no end. He knewMentzer personally, andcould not understand Gus'

, strange behavior.II got a lot stranger a

moment later when Guspulled the trigger. If not forthe intervention of apasserby, who knocked thebarrel of the weapontoward the ground,Dallman probably wouldhave died.

Without further ado,Mentzer turned and rushedtoward the Bank ExchangeSaloon. Dallman immedi­ately pulled his ownrevolver and sent a coupleof rounds screaming afterMentzer. Dallman wasunclear, as was everyoneelse, as to what "setMentzer off," but it wasabundantly clear that Gushad slipped his moorings

and needed to be stopped.iii-what woUld be a preturO

sor to the rest of theevening's events, Dallmanhit an innocent bystanderin the leg.

Confusion reignsInside the Bank

Exchange, it got evenweirder. As Dallman pur- .sued Gus into the saloon.he shouted a warning tothe bartender - Gus' for­mer business associate BillBurbridge - who wasapparently unaware that hewas Gus' ultimate target.Possibly thinking that heand Gus were still friends,Burbridge began to shootat Dol/man.

Gus, for his part, beganshooting willy-nilly atessentially everyone else inthe saloon. Nobody likesto be shot at, and the otherpatrons, despite the ordi­nance against carryingfirearms, pulled their ownguns and in the next fewseconds, the saloon filledwith gunsmoke.

Luckily, everyone hadbeen in there at least aslong as Gus, and no onewas sober enough to hitanyone else, with the

'exception of Mentzer him­self, who was nicked in theleg. Considering his inebri­ated condition, it is ques­tionable as to whether ornot he was even aware ofit at the time. However, thebar, as well as a lot of bot­tles and glasses, was shotto pieces.

When Gus Tilced out ofthe saloon, he was pursuedby a mob - the otherpatrons - with Dallman inthe lead. But Gus' feet hadgrown wings, as he easily

outdistanced everyone elseanavamstre,tllwasn't .long before the still irate(and still drunk) citizensgot a report that Gus hadbeen seen lurking behindsome piles of freight in therailroad yard.

Keep in mind that noone - possibly not evenMentzer himself - wasaware of exactly what wasgoing on.

Anyway, when the citi­zens reached the railroadyard, the evening train waspulling in and we can onlyimagine the reaction of thepassengers when whatmust have seemed Iike theentire population of Ratonboarded the train in searchof one man. Gus however,was nowhere to he found.

ArespiteChasing a demented

idiot around town (an be'thirsty work and certainmembers of the "posse"were beginning to realizethis. When someone sug­gested that perhaps a breakshould be taken over in theLittle Brindle Saloon -what with the BankExhange being so shot upand all - everyone heartilyand more or less instanta­neously agreed.

For the next hour or so,everyone congratulatedeach other on what a greatjob they had done runningGus out of town. Aftermore drinks had beenimbibed, the crowd elect­ed to go back to the BankExchange to survey 'hedamage. They werealready beginning to call it"The Great BloodlessShootout." But things werenot destined to remain

bloodless '"-'fhey-had-only-been -­

back at the Bank Exchangea short time, primarily dis­cussing Gus Mentzer'swhereabouts, when Gushimself answered thatquestion. He suddenlyamazed everyone bystrolling into the place. Hethen proceeded to elbowhis way 10 the bar wherehe ordered a drink asthough nothing had hap­pened.

The silence was deaf­ening. Everyone stood star­ing in dumbfoundedamazement at Gus, whogazed pleasantly back atthem.

As youQn-imagine,this state of affairs did notlast long. As one, thecrowd lunged at Gus, whodid some lunging of hisown. Jerking his nowreloaded pisluls from hid­ing, Gus raced back oulinto the street with thecrowd in hot pursuit.

Making. the picture perfec:

s

Last semester, Ruidoso HighSchool woodshop and year­book instructor, Mr. Henry

Sullon, and students in some ofhiswoodshopclasses began aninterdepartmental, interdiscipli­nary projectwith the RHSTheatre and the RHS Art .Departments.

The project was to create aseries of 21 stageflats, 14-feethigh and 6-feet wide, mountedon triangular bases that also hadto be designed and constructedon rollers, forming prisms calledPeriaktoi. Inaddition, to securethe flats, metal hardware had tobe created and that was accom­piishe by the RHS students inMr. Mader'smetal worksclasses.

This massive design-and­build project, when completed,would enable theatre and art stu­dents to cover them with muslin

and design and paint scenes. spe­cific to'each of the three upcom­ing productions. Essentially, theflats, when totally finished,would become giantcanvasesrotated to reveal different scenes.

These flats are now finishedand will form the basisof scenic;designs for productions by TheRuidoso High School's RedFeather Theatre Company foryears to come. The first batch ofthese monster-sized canvasescan be seen this weekend withthe openingof Too ManyDoaors by Harriet Dexter, a ren­dition of a French farce, TheImaginary Invalid, by Moliere.The collaborative efforts of RHSInstructors Mr. Sutton, Mr.Mader, Mr. lucy and Mrs. Inks,along with their many students,parents and the business com­munity, made this projectpossi­ble. Wooddonations totalling

more than $1,ODD were made bylocal businesses: FoxworthGalbraith, Koehler Constructionand 84 lumber.

In addition, more lumber waspersonally donated by local artistand parent Mrs. DeborahWenzel, with much time andeffort given to the arduous taskof covering the hugeframes bystudents and parent Mrs. lisaPorter.

Research regarding hands-onprojects, collaboratively accorn­plished, reveals this is a soundeducational learning strategy.

"We are expecting asell-out for this show, so Iwould advise folks to maketheir reservations earlv,"Wedig said. "Tuesday night(March 10), Celia drew acrowd of more than 2S0 toa concert in Las Crucessponsored by the DonaAna Arts Council in thehistoric

Rio Grande Theatre.She's very popular, and thisis a show you do not wantto miss."

For reservations callCoffee & More at 585­4575 Tuesday throughSaturday, 8:00 a.m. - 5:0Q.p.m.

\Celia is unique in thatshe often employs. asophisticated technologycalled looping, whichenables her to lay down atrack right on stage, thenplay it back and lay downanother, and do it again.The result is to expand hersound.

In effect, she sings withherself, so the harmoniesare exquisite and thesound is full. The tech­nique is often used in therecording industry, butvery few performers use itlive. And even fewer use itlive with a great deal ofskill. Celia is one of thosefew. The sound can createan almost spiritual experi­ence.

Celia, whose comedyhas earned her compar­isons to the late GildaRadner, frequently bringsalong some of her"friends.' These are alter

She has .been called "across between anearthy Enya, Tori ..

Amo!hnd Gilda Radner."She is a singer/song­

writer, storyteller andcomedienne. Her name isCelia, and she will be fea­tured in concert at Coffee& More, 308 Granado St.,in Iutarosa.

The concert is titled"Celtic & More, " as Celia,who is accomplished in avarietv of musical genres,has her roots firmly plantedin Celtic music. Fire in theHead, one of her earliestCD albums, released in2000, featured traditionalIrish songs such as"Magg,e:' "Both Sides theTweed:' "The Foggy Dew:'"The Fields of Athenrv"and "Greenfields ofFrance." .tt also includedsome songs written byCelia, herself, "Gnomes"and "Erika." Her voice hasthe purity of tone oftenassociated With classicIrish slngers., such as"Celtic Woman." Whilethe show will certainly fea­ture Celtic music, Celiawill also he performingmusic from some of theother genres in which sheis accomplished. Thisincludes adult contempo­rary, ~ew Thought, andSOCial usilce anthems.
