Luis Sanchez SaturnoThe New Mexican Liberate Salaz of Santa Fe raps during the SFCC Student Expo on Thursday. As students drifted in and out to watch between classes, performers shared their talents and experiences. Storytellers: Student Expo held every fall and every spring services and memorials designing and making her own jewelry after looking over what was available in Santa Fe. "I go downtown and visit all the stores and they have all the same (things)," Anguiano said. "Sometimes you want something different." She began to learn the craft, and now she enjoys working with natural stones particularly turquoise.

Other students, like Claire Edwards, sought to educate the crowd. Her short story, Urban Indians, details her experience as someone who lived away from her tribe. Although she often went with family to visit members of her tribe and participate in traditions, her cousins and friends on the reservation made her feel bad for "being an urban Indian." The Student Expo is held every fall and every spring, coordinator Kathy Mannick said. "It's so eye-opening to see what our students can do the talents and the interests and what their lives are like." Continued from Page C-l when Joshua wanted to get an earring.

Between Joshua's smooth rap skills and Jolie's soulful voice, they enraptured the crowd. After the song ended, a few people gave them a standing ovation. Music is how the pair met in New Orleans many years ago, Joshua said. "I was walking through a park and she was playing a guitar and singing under a tree," he said, speaking in a soft voice much different from the voice he used to tell his own story.

But Robert Esqueda tells the Town Council measures have been taken so crews can respond faster to such leaks in the future. Esqueda says that when the city's new control system found that water tanks were full Saturday, it shut down a valve to them, causing a shock wave that slammed back through the pipe.

He says there was a weak point in the line over an open pit where the water blew out a coupling. Staff and wire reports Blea, 62, had been the district's chief administrator for 13 of the past 19 years. He was most recently hired in the fall of 2008 to replace Toni Nolan Trujillo.

She did not apply for the permanent position. Park Service to host open house The National Park Service will host an open house and tour of its former Southwest regional headquarters at 1100 Old Santa Fe Trail on Wednesday. The "scoping" meeting is to provide information and solicit ideas from the public on managing the 71-year-old building, says a news release. The resulting report, it says, "is intended to give building managers detailed recommendations for the care of the building's historic landscape, including native and introduced vegetation, water use and irrigation." The all-adobe structure was completed in 1939 by a New Deal agency, designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987 and ceased to be regional headquarters when it was moved to Denver in 1995. Some past and current National Park Service employees have worried that the federal government's decision to leave its rented building on Rodeo Park West and consolidate all 70 Santa Fe employees into the old building could damage it.

Wednesday's tour of the building and grounds begins at 4:40 p.m. The public scoping meeting is from 5:15 to 7 p.m. in the Great Room of the building.
