Legislature cares about Lottery Scholarship by Luke Holmen holmen@unm.edu
College students statewide have lobbied for legislation that would save the dying Lottery Scholarship fund, and their efforts may pay off during this year’s legislative session.
“This is a promise we made in 1996 to New Mexico students, and I think we have to find a way as a state not to go back on that promise” ~Sen. Cynthia Nava D, Doña Ana chair of the Senate Education Committee The Legislative Finance Committee has predicted since July that the fund will run dry as soon as 2014, but House Joint Memorial 14 and Senate Joint Memorial 27 both propose creating a task force to prevent that from happening. Rep. Ray Begaye (D, San Juan) co-sponsored HJM 14 and said the memorial aims to develop a solution by the 2013 legislative session. The House Education Committee passed HJM 14 on Monday and it is the first item on the House Calendar for Wednesday. SJM 27 is currently in the Senate Rules Committee. “Several NMSU students and students from other universities said, ‘Let’s look at this, put a team of experts together and find a solution by next January so we can save the scholarship,’” Begaye said. Begaye said possible solutions include finding alternative funding sources, increasing the

Begaye said another suggestion is to stop awarding the scholarship to freshmen, because scholarship funding has been spent in the past on students who dropped out of school. “It used to be we would give the lottery to any incoming freshman and they would go for less than a full semester and then drop out, and that is money lost on the back of taxpayers,” he said. Sen. Cynthia Nava (D, Doña Ana), chair of the Senate Education Committee, introduced SJM 27. She said she served in the legislature when the Lottery Scholarship was instituted in 1996. “This is promise we made in 1996 to New Mexico students, and
I think we have to find a way as a state not to go back to on that promise,” she said. Nava said she doesn’t agree with making the scholarship’s eligibility requirements more rigorous. “You can’t cut your way out of the problem,” she said. “We may have to raise (eligibility requirements) to some degree, but the lottery can’t continue to serve the state if we cut without adding any more money.” Florencio Olguin, director of ASUNM Governmental Affairs, met with Nava on Tuesday to discuss the memorial. He said ASUNM advocated for a Lottery Scholarship task force, which would include students from colleges around New Mexico. The memorials propose a task force that would include at least three students from three different state colleges.
UNM Day highlights More than 150 students traveled to Santa Fe for UNM Day at the legislature on Tuesday to advocate for legislation that would benefit the University. The following are the bills and issues they supported: — House Joint Memorial 14 and Senate Joint Memorial 27 These would create a task force to find a solution to the depleting funding of the Legislative Lottery Scholarship. At its current revenue and expenditure rates, the scholarship will run out of money by 2014. HJM was introduced Jan. 24, passed by the Education Committee Jan. 30, and will be introduced to the House on Feb. 1. SJM was introduced Jan. 24 and is currently under debate in the Senate Rules Committee. — The elimination of the tuition credit, effectively a tax on student tuition. (No current legislation in process.) — $150,000 for improved lighting on campus to improve safety, especially near Zimmerman Library. — $175,000 for a new commuter shuttle to replace one bus in UNM’s aging bus system. ~Renee Schmitt
Classroom technology receives mixed response by Jessica Hitch jehitch@unm.edu
Use of technology in the classroom is on the rise, and if it’s up to UNM’s Chief Information Officer, chalkboards will soon become obsolete. Chief Information Officer Gilbert Gonzales said his office administers student and faculty surveys each year to track and respond to technology trends on campus, and has been systematically renovating UNM classroom technology since 2008. “If technology doesn’t work in a classroom, that is a high priority,

not a, ‘Get back to you next week’ thing,” Moira Gerety, deputy CIO, said. “Technology must work. We’re committed to it working, and we’re going to give support.” Gerety said the CIO office is also creating campus-wide guidelines that will set the minimum standards for technology in classrooms. But according to the most recent surveys, only eight percent of UNM faculty use blogs as part of their curriculum and just 11 percent want to use blogs in the future. One-fifth of UNM faculty is interested in making their lectures available in a podcast form, according to survey results.
Gonzales said updating classroom technology and helping professors use the technology has been a challenge. “There were wired networks present before 2008, but they were placed more randomly in the room,” he said. “Faculty members would trip or not have a cable. A port is only useful if the instructor doesn’t trip.” But many UNM professors said the recent technological developments have improved the classroom experience. Professor Vera Norwood said the Internet has created “an exciting portal” for her classes.

“A student or an instructor can go to the website and link to the reading or activity; post a blog in response …link to web resources to dig deeper into the topic; and review notes from previous classes — all in one place,” she said. “We continue to work as a learning community outside the class meeting times.” Librarian Christy Crowley said the “Drupal” open-source content-management system she uses allows students to distribute their research worldwide. “It furthers the notion of ‘open science,’ which lets researchers explore and repurpose data from oth-
er researchers,” she said. “We will make our data open to the world as we search for other data out there that will inform our projects.” Laura Crossey, who has been a professor at UNM for 27 years, said she doesn’t think the developments in technology are more trouble than they’re worth. “Xeroxes can break down, too, so there aren’t any more critical disappointments or surprises with this kind of technology than with going into the classroom and having the chalk be gone,” Crossey said. “Mishaps can happen with any technology.”

Adria Malcolm / Daily Lobo Architecture professor Efthimios Maniatis shows off his design for a villa he is building in the Bahamas. The villa is designed to be a peaceful retreat for high-caliber guests who work in the entertainment industry.
UNM architecture professor Efthimios Maniatis runs his own architecture studio in a converted garage in his home in the Ridgecrest neighborhood south of UNM. Although he isn’t a licensed architect, he is preparing to supervise construction of a multi-million dollar project in the Bahamas, which he designed. Maniatis was born in Athens, Greece and moved to the United States in 1975 to study in New York City. He began as an engineering student but changed to architecture after one year of study. “I believed at the time that to be an architect you had to have wealthy family and friends,” he said. “After that I was told, ‘That’s not true.’” After visiting his sister in Santa Fe, 16 years ago Maniatis decided to move to New Mexico. “I fell in love with the place, and it reminded me of Greece,” he said. “Somehow, it feels like being back home.” After working for five years with Lloyd and Tryk Architects, designing hotels and spas in and around Santa Fe, Maniatis opened his own studio. His heritage and experience with resort design were the reasons he was chosen to design the Bahamas project. This private luxury villa, which will be built in the Exuma Cays, a group of islands in the Bahamas, has an unlimited budget and is the largest project his studio has produced. Although unable to name his clients, Maniatis said they intend to rent the property to guests who work

Brazil–Cuba relations speculation after trip by Peter Orsi
The Associated Press HAVANA — Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff said Tuesday that her country acted properly in granting an entry visa to Cuban dissident blogger Yoani Sanchez, but that it’s an internal matter for Cuba as to whether Sanchez is allowed to leave the island. Rousseff also demurred when asked whether she had any concerns about the island’s human rights record, saying it’s not her place to judge. “He who throws the first stone has a roof made of glass. We in Brazil have ours,” Rousseff told Brazilian journalists accompanying her on a tour of Cuba and Haiti. The news conference was not open to foreign media based in Cuba, but her office posted audio of the encounter online. Rousseff spoke on a day with a packed, trade-oriented agenda, including a tour of a port expansion project at Mariel financed with the help of hundreds of millions of dollars from her country. She met with President Raúl Castro to sign new cooperation agreements, and announced credits of $400 million to help Cuba purchase Brazilian food products, plus $200 million for tractors and

other equipment to stimulate Cuban agriculture. “The major contribution we can make to Cuba is to help develop its economy,” Rousseff said. Rousseff was asked about Sanchez, who last week got a visa from the Brazilian Embassy to attend a film festival in February. Sanchez has said she’s awaiting word on whether Cuba will grant her the exit permit required for all islanders, and Rousseff declined to weigh in on whether it ought to. “Brazil gave the visa to the blogger. The rest is not a matter for the Brazilian government,” she said. The issuing of the visa was not particularly surprising: by Sanchez’s own count she has received entry visas from 18 different countries in recent years, and each time was denied permission to leave. But the timing just ahead of Rousseff ’s trip was interpreted by some in Brazil that the president was departing from the diplomacy of her predecessor, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who was careful not to be seen as interfering in Cuba’s internal affairs. Silva was criticized at home following a 2010 visit to Cuba when he met with Fidel and Raúl Castro hours after an imprisoned dissident’s prolonged hunger strike ended in death. Silva later sug-
gested that hunger strikes were not a legitimate means of protest for prisoners. The Estado de S. Paulo newspaper wrote in an editorial last weekend that Sanchez’s visa was another sign Brazil had “abandoned Silva’s populist showmanship” and made a “clear break with the automatic alignment of everything that was anti-American.” But Rousseff did not criticize her hosts under their own roof, and mentioned concerns about the treatment of terror detainees at the U.S. naval base at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. “You can’t turn the politics of human rights into just a weapon of politico-ideological combat,” Rousseff said. “The world must convince itself that this is something all nations need to take responsibility for, including ours.” It is Rousseff ’s first trip as president to the communist-run nation whose revolution inspired leftist resistance movements in countries across Latin America, including her own. As a young economics student in the 1960s, Rousseff was a leader of the Palmares Armed Revolutionary Vanguard, which opposed Brazil’s 1964–1985 military dictatorship.

Letters Lobo shouldn’t assume readers have calendars Editor’s note: This letter references “For Your Ears,” a monthly rundown of local music shows. The last edition of “For Your Ears” was published Tuesday. Editor, I enjoyed reading Alexandra Swanberg and Nicole Perez’s nutshell reviews of upcoming local music events in the Culture section of Tuesday’s paper. And, in the 30 seconds or so that it took me to scan these reviews, I actually entertained the thought of attending a concert or two. But these excellent writers lost me when they (or the copy editor) failed to tell me precisely what day these concerts were to take place. Oh yes, I know the dates were given, but “Feb. 4” or “Feb. 15” just won’t cut it. Unless one happens to have an IQ of 140 or be a savant, I don’t see how the average Joe Six-Pack can visualize the Gregorian calendar in his head and realize that these concerts are taking place on a Saturday or Wednesday, respectively. Such information (the day) is important to those of us who have lives and are trying to arrange classes, work, romantic encounters and sports activities around musical or theatrical events. This problem is not isolated to this particular column. I see this issue crop up in posters and flyers littering UNM: A date specified but never a day mentioned. It’s absolutely maddening. In the future — for those of us who do not have images of calendars implanted in our brains — please tell us what day these events occur. It doesn’t take up much space and it may make the difference between us going to an event or simply blowing it off. Chuck Reuben UNM staff
Treasure the present, the future is never certain Editor, I am deeply indebted to many people who have loved, taught and inspired me. All my friends and enemies are my teachers — both on how to live and how not to live. I constantly collect wisdom in order to live it and to pass it on. From my early childhood on, my mother took me with her to many funerals of relatives, friends and neighbors. From an early age, I learned life is not certain. Tomorrow is not guaranteed to any of us. I want to be humble in all of life. I often say I aim to do, or to go, if am alive and able. In one moment when we least expect it, our lives can end and all our future plans evaporate. Forty-five years ago as a young Mennonite pastor, I sincerely preached about life beyond the grave. I had not yet learned or dared to question deeply! Now as an agnostic, I belong to no religion. From the beginning of the human family, people have swallowed and believed all kinds of weird stupidity, attractive lies and myths. We all can often feel like shipwrecked orphans on the cosmic ocean on a dark and stormy night. I understand well why people grab on separately to religions for meaning, security and answers. No one on Earth wants to be reunited forever with his or her loved ones and all people in a much better world beyond death more than I do. But wanting something fervently does not make it so. I do not know! One thing worse than not knowing if life continues beyond the grave would be to pretend to myself or to others that I do know. I focus my attention on the here and now — living simply, war-tax refusal, forgiveness, gardening, non-violence, close friendships, eating only raw plant foods, passionate sex and romance with men, deep conversation, sunbathing naked, vigorous daily exercise, nature, hear-touching music, compassion and fairness for all people on Earth and gratitude. These I treasure. These I have to begun to know… Don Schrader Daily Lobo reader
Column
Think outside the race box, Arizona by Devon Stevens
Daily Lobo columnist
Dear Arizona government, I’ve become increasingly disturbed at your public policies toward those of a different … let’s say “color.” Being white myself, maybe I should applaud your racist, xenophobic and outdated adherence to the concept of race, but I can’t find it in my heart to support something so thoroughly disgusting as institutionalized, state-supported racism even if it is to protect the feelings of my “race.” The banning of books is nothing new and it is useful to identify places that you in no way want to be. You’ve stooped so low as to ban Shakespeare’s “The Tempest” from your schools for its semi-sympathetic take on Caliban, and your banned book list contains mostly Native and Hispanic authors. And what is up with the racial profiling? Why have you told your police to harass anyone who looks “illegal?” You seem to think it’s fair to pull over people based on their skin color and subject them to illegal searches. Now, I know the Fourth Amendment is the most violated amendment in the country, but you appear to have raised its violation
Western foreign policy responsible for bombs Editor, While acts of terrorism have been carried out by Muslims living in America and the UK, rarely is it asked: What was the reason behind these acts? While I am not here to justify these un-Islamic acts, it must be stated that these disillusioned youths are responding to the evil foreign policies of the infidels of Europe and America toward Muslim countries. When they come home from school and see the images on the TV of Muslim women being raped and Muslim men being murdered, they feel that the only solution is to plant bombs in places like New York or London. Although the infidel of America and Europe will never admit it, it is his evil foreign policy, which is based on lies, that causes some Muslim youths to resort to acts of terrorism.
to an art form and your politicians defend it with the smarminess of those who see nothing wrong with it. Why should any citizen regardless of ethnicity or their parents’ nationality have to carry papers in case they get stopped on the highway? Why should I fear for my friends when they need to go through your sorry state to visit California? How far are you willing to go? Why not just leave the Union? That way we could beat you back to your senses. Let me say this as clearly as possible: There is only one race — the human race. The concept of different races is a racist one that has been used to justify countless inhuman practices throughout history including torture, murder and genocide. It is still used in the modern day to categorize people and enforce social stratification. And you, Arizona, have appeared to have wholeheartedly embraced this last category in a misguided effort to stem illegal immigration. While we’re on the topic of illegal immigration I’d like to point out that your very own Misters Antenori, Schapira, McCain, McComish, and Murphy (via a quick glance at the Arizona State Senate roster) must have come from immigrant families and must have experienced the
same hatred and intolerance you now level at people with names like “Martinez.” So, let’s all be hypocrites and say those who got here later are less entitled than those who got here first, if we can indeed guarantee that there weren’t Martinezes in Arizona hundreds of years before any white man. I know exactly how you became so racist, Arizona. When you were a poor state struggling to make do, you decided that you could sell yourself as a good place to retire due to your hot weather and wide, open spaces. You called in the snow birds and they came and you filled up with old white people with older, more conservative ideas, and that snowballed until today when racism has infected you down to your constabulary — men and women who should know better. And before you accuse me of being ageist or a self-racist, let me state that I have no problem with old, white, non-racists insofar as I even think of people as white. I am not an advocate of putting people in little boxes from which they can’t and aren’t supposed to escape. There’s that old phrase, “Poor New Mexico, so far from Heaven, so close to Texas.” Let’s modify it to “So far from Heaven, so close to Arizona.”
Letter In life people try to say that God told them to do something in order to justify their actions. For example, there are some Muslims in Africa who carry out female genital mutilation and say that Islam justifies this act. However, the truth is that the Prophet Muhammad had four daughters and he never tampered with any of their private parts. Similarly, if some Muslim youths plant a bomb in a city which kills innocent civilians, they are also seeking to justify an act which has no religious justification. Unfortunately, the media seem more interested in looking for a scapegoat when it comes to reporting on these events. The media play up some “radical sheikh” as being the cause for the acts of terrorism instead of the evil foreign policy of the infidels in America and Europe. The truth is that when you invade a Muslim country based on lies about weapons of mass destruction, that will do more to contribute to acts of terrorism than any so-called radical sheikh. Planting bombs on airplanes or subways will not solve anything. My advice to any Muslim who
is fed up with life in the land of the infidels is to get an education and then move to one of the Muslim countries. And the last word I would like to leave with the non-Muslim is to remember that it is the evil foreign policy of your leaders which is causing acts of terrorism to be carried out against you by misguided Muslim youths.

Highway closures a free-for-all by Mike Schneider The Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. — Whether it’s a dust storm in Arizona, a whiteout in Maine or wildfire in Florida, the call to shut down a major highway usually rests with local officials, who in some cases have little, if any, written guidelines to follow. In many cases, officials rely on what officers at the scene are seeing — or what they can’t see — when they make the decision. In Florida, a foggy, smokefilled stretch of Interstate 75 in Gainesville was closed in both directions for three hours early Sunday. Shortly after troopers decided to reopen the highway, cars slammed into tractor-trailers on both sides of the interstate in two pileups that killed 10 people. Florida officials said they were willing to review their protocols, but the Highway Patrol was also quick to put the safety onus on drivers, saying conditions can change in an instant and motorists must be prepared to quickly make good decisions. Federal transportation agencies have never issued guidelines on when to close roads due to fog, fires and dust storms. National groups representing insurance companies, the Federal Highway Administration, the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board all said they had not heard of such a policy. The NTSB is investigating the Gainesville crash. Florida is vulnerable to smoky roads since it has one of the nation’s most active prescribed fire programs. It has a 16-item checklist for “smoke/fog incidents� that is part of a larger 28-page policy manual for Florida Highway Patrol shift commanders. Closing a road, which can be costly for tractor-trailers shipping goods, is decided by a supervisor who consults with troopers at the scene, although any patrolman can make the call if there is imminent danger, said Capt. Mark Brown, chief of the patrol’s media relations. In the I-75 pileup, a district lieutenant based in Gaines-
Phil Sandlin/ AP Photo A fireman sprays the interior of a burned vehicle that was involved in a multi-vehicle accident that killed at least nine people on Interstate 75 near Gainesville, Fla. on Sunday. Authorities were still trying to determine what caused the pileup on the highway, which had been closed due to a mixture of fog and heavy smoke from a brush fire. ville who was the supervisor at the scene made the decision. A day earlier, a different spokesman said a sergeant and lieutenant determined after about three hours that conditions had cleared enough for drivers. “We rely on the members on the ground, and their physical presence, people who are actually there — their feedback. The person that can actually see what is going on,� Brown said. Troopers also use information and forecasts from the National Weather Service. One key piece of information is an index estimating the humidity and smoke dispersion on a scale of 1 to 10. If the score is 7 or higher, the road should be closed. The index score for early Sunday had been forecast to be 6 in a four-county region that includes the crash area, according to the National Weather Service. The Low Visibility Occurrence Risk Index was introduced to troopers around the state following a deadly crash in 2008 on Interstate 4 between Orlando and Tampa, about 125 miles south of Sunday’s pileup. Four people were killed and 38 injured in that crash, which was caused by heavy smoke and fog. “The index was added to get a more scientific approach to decision-making than what was used
before,â€? said Sgt. Steve Gaskins, a Florida Highway Patrol spokesman based in the Tampa area. More than anything, troopers rely on the conditions they are seeing. “If I’m a road sergeant and I go to the scene and can’t see anything, I call up and I say, ‘Hey, we’re closing the road,’â€? Gaskins said. In Maine, the nation’s most heavily wooded state, the decision is left up to the trooper on scene. “Every situation is going to be different,â€? said Duane Brunelle, a safety specialist at the Maine Department of Transportation. In Georgia, Department of Transportation engineers work with Georgia State Patrol officers. Their protocol treats smoke more seriously than fog. “Fog is often so widespread that it would be logistically impossible to address,â€? said David Spear, a spokesman for the Georgia Department of Transportation. “However, an isolated patch of fog with sufficient density to hamper visibility ‌ should be treated the same as smoke.â€? The Arizona Department of Transportation is testing out a new dust warning system that takes field readings on weather conditions, humidity and wind speed. The goal is to detect potential dust storms a few days before they hit and begin posting warnings on signs.

LOS ANGELES — A senior administrator at Claremont McKenna College resigned after acknowledging that he falsified college entrance exam scores for years to publications responsible for ranking the small school among universities, an official said. An investigation was launched after inaccuracies were detected in the SAT scores reported for the class entering in fall 2011, college president Pamela B. Gann told staff members and students in an email message on Monday. The senior admissions official took sole responsibility for falsifying scores sent since 2005 to publications such as U.S. News & World Report, she said. The name of the official was not released. “As an institution of higher education with a deep and consistent commitment to the integrity of all our academic activities, and particularly our reporting of institutional data, we take this situation very seriously,” Gann said. No one at the college has explained what would drive the senior administrator at such a prestigious institution to falsify the figures. However, college-admissions experts said the incident came amid growing competition among students to win acceptance to a top school and among colleges to lure top students. Claremont McKenna, located in a small town 30 miles east of Los Angeles, is currently ranked by U.S. News & World Report as the ninth-best liberal arts college in the country. The 1,200-student campus
places a strong academic focus on political science and economics, and boasts graduates including actor Robin Williams and U.S. Rep. David Dreier. The school said reading and math SAT scores were each inflated by an average of 10 or 20 points. For example, the school reported a median SAT score of 1410 instead of 1400 for the fall 2010 entering class, Gann said. The college has hired a law firm to conduct an independent review of its admissions-related data processes and has been reaching out to agencies that use the data ranging from education publications to Moody’s to set the record straight, said Max Benavidez, a spokesman for the school. “We’re not hiding anything,” he said. “We’re the ones volunteering to tell people what took place and what we’re doing to fix it.” U.S. News & World Report will not change its current rankings but will evaluate the impact of the falsification on the school’s profile, said Robert J. Morse, director of data research for the publication. These scores have a weight of 7.5 percent in determining a school’s ranking. “It could affect it in a small amount — not a large amount,” Morse said. Morse said he has seen schools misreport or falsify data to ranking publications and credit rating agencies, but it isn’t common. On Tuesday, dozens of comments flooded the website of Claremont McKenna’s student newspaper. Some readers argued that small fluctuations in test scores indicate nothing about a school. Others bemoaned the impact of the incident on the college’s reputation and called for greater accountability from the
Cuba bookstore.unm.edu
administration. Aditya Pai, vice president of the school’s student government association, said the incident has disheartened students. “We are disappointed that an administrator exaggerated credentials that need no exaggeration,” Pai said in a statement. “However, his actions do not reflect the strength of our community, the excellence of our education, or the caliber of our people.” A message left at the home of a former dean of admissions identified by the Los Angeles Times as having recently left his job at the college was not immediately returned. The school announced Tuesday that Georgette DeVeres, associate vice president for admission and financial aid, would become the interim head of the college’s admission and financial aid office. Joyce Smith, chief executive of the National Association for College Admission Counseling, said the admissions process has grown even more intense in recent years because more students are college bound and they are filing a much higher number of applications due to the ease of submitting paperwork online. That has colleges working hard to persuade students to attend after they’ve been accepted at more than one institution, she said. “We do have some concerns about how this process is going so far out of kilter for parents and students, as well as counselors who feel under siege and colleges who in every little marketing thing, every little new widget (are) trying to communicate with students and get their attention,” she said. “The whole landscape has changed.”

For three years she wrote for an underground newspaper and taught fellow militants Marxist theory, though she says she never took part in violent actions. Rousseff was captured by military police in 1970 and spent three years in prison, at times subjected to torture. Leading up to the trip, Rousseff did not speak about human rights in Cuba, emphasizing instead the trip’s core mission: developing bilateral trade and the opening of Cuba’s economy. Last year com-
merce between the two nations hit a record $642 million. Brazil’s Foreign Ministry highlighted the country’s support for the Mariel port expansion, saying 80 percent of the funding had come from Brazil, totaling about $683 million. On Monday, Brazilian construction company Odebrecht announced that a subsidiary would ink a 10-year contract to help administer a sugar mill in Cuba’s Cienfuegos province.

in entertainment and media. “They’re expecting people like movie-makers and TV producers,” he said “They will go there and rent it for a week or a month to produce, to create, to inspire, to be inspired.” The plans were designed with these occupants in mind, Maniatis said. “I’m hoping when somebody goes to this villa, the architecture is designed in such a way that you feel inspired and spiritually touched,” he said. “I’m hoping for a spiritual experience. The result of that is exu-
berance in the mind to create.” Maniatis, who teaches Introduction to Architecture at UNM, said his designs are enriched by his experiences as an educator. “My teaching helps me to learn and understand architecture,” he said. “Then I take my experiences from my practice and take them to teaching, and it makes me a better teacher … one feeds the other; if I stopped teaching, my work would be stagnated.”

Team preps for new staff, misses Locksley by Cesar Davila
hendrix@unm.edu
Don’t worry... it kinda looks like you’re taking notes.
The 2012 Lobo football team will look completely different than it has in the last three seasons — on the sidelines, that is. First-year head coach Bob Davie officially introduced his coaching staff on Monday and there are a lot of new faces. Every member of the coaching staff from the three consecutive 1-11 teams will not return. “It sucks,” senior quarterback B.R. Holbrook said. “It’s not a good feeling. We’ve been with them for so long that you’ve formed these relationships and (then) you see them go, it’s really hard.” Former head coach Mike Locksley recruited junior defensive back Emmanuel Fatokun from McKinley Tech High School in Washington, D.C in 2009. Fatokun said he’s been impressed by what he’s seen from the new staff, including Davie, but building the relationships with the new coaches will take time. “It’s like a stepfather coming into
a stepchild’s relationship,” Fatokun said. “Right now it’s not definite until we go on these years with these new coaches.” Holbrook and Fatokun are just two of several players who will have to adjust to a new system. They said they won’t forget what they learned from Locksley’s staff. “They may be gone physically, but mentally and what they taught me, everything is still there,” Fatokun said. “We got the fatherly love; we got that from coach Locks. Now we want to win. We want to be successful.” Success may be hard to come by, as Holbrook enters his last season as a Lobo and will do so under a new offensive scheme. “It is going to present some pretty good challenges,” Holbrook said. “But I’m confident and we have a pretty good senior class and I think we’re starting to mature as a team, so I think we’ll able to handle that pretty well.” One of those challenges will be for Fatokun, who was on defense last year. Fatokun will switch to the offensive side of the ball this season and

felt like I can play running back,” Fatokun said. “I feel like that’s where I can definitely contribute.” As for the coaches, Davie said he hired people who can contribute by making the players better

The pieces of the puzzle for a successful season are coming together for the Lobo football team. First-year head coach Bob Davie unveiled the coaching staff for the upcoming season at a press conference on Monday. He said every coach is on the same page to end three straight 1-11 seasons. “You want guys that have different personalities and coaches that have different strengths,” Davie said. “In the end what really matters is that it all fits together and everyone has one common vision. I was very deliberate to make sure that (the) puzzle fit.” Davie said he wanted to select people for his coaching staff who have a passion for Lobo football. He selected two former UNM coaches, running backs coach DeAndre Smith and offensive line coach Jason Lenzmeier. “I wanted coaches that really wanted to be here,” Davie said. “There is not a coach here that I had to beg to come, and that a very good thing.” Davie also brought in talent from the highest levels of coaching. Special teams coach Coleman Hutzler hails from Florida and defensive backs coach Jeff Mills joins UNM from the University of Washington. “I wanted coaches that really shared the same vision that I do and see New Mexico as a really unique place and see the potential that this place has,” Davie said. Wide receivers coach Taylor Stubblefield and defensive line coach Archie McDaniel both bring in playing experience after they graduated in 2005 from Purdue and Texas A&M, respectively. Davie said it’s important to have coaches who not only tell the players what to do but can actually show them as well. Defensive coordinator Ron West comes from Illinois, where he led the Fighting Illini to a top-10 defensive ranking last season. UNM gave up 35 points or more in nine of its 11 games last season, and West said he is going to put a lot of effort into the defense to limit mistakes. “We’re going to put a system in the spring and we are going to spend a lot of time with walkthroughs and making sure they understand what they are supposed to do,” West said.

features of the offense that we can bring here and we can do without question,” he said. “It just depends on who our playmakers are and how we can devise ways to get the ball in their hands.” UNM turned the ball over 21 times last season and averaged just under 300 yards per game. DeBesse said he is going to get every one of his players mentally ready to compete and limit mistakes. “(Discipline) is of the upmost importance,” he said. “Those are the things that coach Davie brought here.”

Media Day becomes ask-all, tell-all whirlwind by Nancy Armour The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Quick, Wes Welker, spell Bill Belichick. Hey, Osi Umenyiora, know any other Elis besides that Manning guy? Rob Gronkowski, what’s your favorite song by Madonna? Not exactly challenging questions about Sunday’s Super Bowl between the New York Giants and the New England Patriots. But that’s media day, the NFL’s annual version of the circus, minus the ringmaster. With players and coaches penned into cubicles, mainstream reporters were joined Tuesday by a guy in a superhero costume, another in an old-time football uniform, kids with microphones and some women who wore dresses that left little to the imagination. They asked the Patriots and Giants anything that crossed their minds. And we do mean anything. “This is crazy, man. It’s crazy,” said Patriots safety Patrick Chung. “I’ve never seen anything like this, ever.” Actually, none of the players had. For the first time, the NFL let fans in on the act, too. For $25 — or more, for those who waited until the last minute to buy their tickets — fans could sit in the stands at the stadium and listen to the interviews over a headset. “We can’t hear all of the questions, so we have to guess,” said Lee Clifford, who brought his sons, 10-year-old Ben and eight-year-old Nick. “I guess lots of people can get a pass to a media event.”

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning answers questions during Media Day for NFL football’s Super Bowl XLVI on Tuesday in Indianapolis. Even people who carry their own disco ball, as the camera crew from Telemundo did. Media day has never been the stuff of Woodward and Bernstein. But it’s gone from off-the-wall to downright goofy in recent years, the tipping point coming four years ago when a reporter from Mexico’s TV Azteca showed up in a wedding
dress from a slasher movie in hopes of winning Tom Brady’s heart. Imagine asking Vince Lombardi if he could name three Kardashians. Gronkowski actually did pretty well — he got Kim and Khloe right away, but needed a few more seconds to come up with Kourtney. Or getting John Elway to salsa dance, as New York Giants receiver Victor Cruz did with singer Ciara.
There were no brides or proposals for Brady this year, although the fashion-conscious QB did talk about having his nails painted. “They were pretty easy on me,” Brady said when asked what it was like to grow up with three older sisters. “They dressed me up a few times in their clothes and painted my nails once, but it was nice.”
Most of the players were good sports about the whole thing, knowing what they were in for when they arrived at Lucas Oil Stadium. Even the normally dour Belichick managed a chuckle or two. “It’s kind of catching me off-guard,” Patriots cornerback Sterling Moore said. “I definitely thought he’d be a little more strict in his interviews.”

Smack talk subdued this year Sandusky to learn
accusers’ names
by Joe Kay
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Hear what Patriots quarterback Tom Brady told the pep rally before leaving New England for the Super Bowl? He got `em riled up by saying he hoped to come back as a winner, greeted by an even larger crowd. Wait, don’t yawn! Sure, it’s not the most controversial comment, not even close to a foot-in-mouth moment. But it can’t be overlooked. For this Super Bowl rematch, Brady’s tame words are about as trashy as it gets. The Patriots (15-3) and the New York Giants (12-7) don’t have any bad things to say about each other. Even if they did, their coaches wouldn’t allow it. Bill Belichick and Tom Coughlin are long-time friends who share the same old-school philosophy when it comes to saying anything about the opposition. Zip it. Tight. Or else. “Players have personalities, and they are who they are,” Coughlin said Monday, shortly after the Giants arrived from New York. “You want a certain amount of that on your football team, but you don’t want someone who puts themselves in a position to hurt your team. So there’s a standard there with how flexible you are.” By Super Bowl standards, it’s extremely tame. The most memorable moments leading up to the title game have been delivered by players willing to say exactly what’s on their mind. Joe Namath started it with his guarantee of a Super Bowl win, back in the days when etiquette called for players to say nothing

As the culture of the game changed — more trash talk, touchdown celebrations and look-at-me moments — the Super Bowl became the big stage for the biggest mouths. During the title game of the 2005 season, for instance, Seattle tight end Jerramy Stevens ignited a back-andforth with Pittsburgh’s Joey Porter by suggesting Seattle was going to win. Porter shot back that Stevens was a “first-round bust” who was “soft” and would end up “on his back” a lot during the game.

dressing when they played the thenundefeated Patriots in the Super Bowl four years ago, arriving in Arizona in black suits to show they were serious about ending New England’s bid for a perfect season. Eli Manning led a late touchdown drive for a 17-14 win. When they arrived for the rematch on Monday, the Giants’ clothes were as subdued as their words — no statements anywhere. “Honestly, for us, that ‘07 thing was kind of like us coming together as a football team,” defensive end Justin Tuck said of the “Men In Black” look. “We just said we wanted to kill a dynasty, and that’s what they were. But now, we’ve been here before and we felt as though all that is secondary.”

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky will learn by the end of the week the names of the 10 young men he is charged with having sexually abused, according to a court document filed late Monday by state prosecutors. The attorney general’s office said that the alleged victims’ names will be delivered to Sandusky’s lawyer Joe Amendola by the close of business Friday, a process that would apparently avoid disclosure through public court records. Sandusky, 68, is awaiting trial on charges of committing a range of abuses against 10 boys over a 15year period, including alleged sexual assaults on Penn State property. He has denied the allegations. The names of the 10 young men were not disclosed in the grand jury reports, which listed them as victims Nos. 1 through 10. The scandal resulted in the ousting of school President Graham Spanier and longtime coach Joe Paterno, who died Jan. 22, and has brought shame to one of college football’s legendary programs. Athletic Director Tim Curley has been placed on administrative leave, and Vice President Gary Schultz, who was in charge of the university’s police department, has stepped down. Schultz and Curley are charged
with lying to the grand jury and failure to report the alleged abuse to police. Like Sandusky, they have maintained their innocence. Amendola has requested a document from prosecutors that would include names of purported victims along with the times, locations and other information to back up the 52 criminal counts against the former Penn State defensive coordinator. The attorney general’s offices said in a document filed in Centre County court that the grand jury reports, charging documents and discovery materials lay out the facts sufficiently. Sandusky “has at his disposal ample information to be apprised of the charges, avoid surprise, and intelligently raise any double jeopardy or statute of limitations challenges,” prosecutors wrote, asking the judge to deny the request. Amendola said Tuesday he had not read the attorney general’s response. Judge John M. Cleland has scheduled a Feb. 10 hearing to resolve any remaining disputes concerning the defense request, and to consider Sandusky’s attempt to modify bail conditions so he may have contact with his grandchildren. Sandusky, currently under house arrest in State College, wants permission for his 11 grandchildren to visit his home, accompanied by a parent, as well as to be allowed to communicate with them by phone or computer.
