Bothersome pond work will save water by Christopher Bartlett bchris89@unm.edu

Students who enjoy the pleasant atmosphere of the west side of the duck pond have been unable to visit its banks since mid-November due to construction on the area’s irrigation and lighting. The area will re-open to students next month following completion of the $325,000 project. Willy West, manager of grounds and landscaping for the Physical Plant Department (PPD), said the project will improve the efficiency of watering nearby plants and grass. He said the duck pond’s original irrigation system, which was added in the ‘70s, is only operating at 30–40 percent efficiency. He said the new systems will work at 60–75 percent efficiency, decreasing UNM’s water usage, and improving the area around the pond itself by providing better irrigation. “The old irrigation system was just not able to meet the needs to keep it looking the way it should,” he said. State money funded the project, according to West. “This project has taken a lot of effort and a lot hard work,” West said. “Our water savings are going to be huge, though.” West said there are other places on campus where the old irrigation systems need to be upgraded, such as along University Boulevard and around Hodgin Hall. PPD is currently seeking funds for those projects.

Junfu Han / Daily Lobo The west side of the Duck Pond has been closed since mid-November when workers broke ground on a $325,000 dollar construction project. The goal is to renovate the area’s lighting and irrigation systems. He also said the University is also upgrading the duck pond’s lighting in response to campus safety walks, during which students questioned the adequacy of the lighting. PPD decided to begin both projects at the same time to keep the construction time short. “Obviously, the safety of students is paramount,” he said. “We tried to

coordinate the work on the irrigation with the lighting to keep the impact on students at a minimum.” UNM student Andrew Moore said he isn’t bothered by the construction, except when trying to ride his longboard on the sidewalks. “It’s frustrating trying to ride over the places where there’s asphalt instead of concrete,” Moore said.

West said that he hasn’t received any complaints from students concerning construction. He said contractors ensure students always have a route around construction. “We really appreciate students’ patience because this is a significant project. It’s in the middle of campus,” he said.

INDIANAPOLIS — Eli Manning is the big man in the NFL after oneupping Tom Brady and leading the New York Giants to a 21-17 victory over the New England Patriots in Sunday’s Super Bowl — in older brother Peyton’s house, at that. Just as Manning did four years ago when the Giants ruined New England’s perfect season, he guided them 88 yards to the decisive touchdown, which the Patriots didn’t contest as Ahmad Bradshaw ran 6 yards with 57 seconds left. Patriots coach Bill Belichick reasoned the Giants would run the clock down and kick a short field goal, so he gambled by allowing the six points. The gamble failed. And now Manning not only has stamped himself as the elite quarterback he claimed to be when the season began — in the same class as Brady — he’s beaten the Patriots in two thrilling Super Bowls. The Giants (13-7), who stood 7-7 in mid-December, now own the football world, and Manning owns two Super Bowl MVP awards, the same number as Brady. “It’s been a wild game, a wild season,” Manning said. “This isn’t about one person. It’s about one team, a team coming together.” Manning led six comeback victories during the season and set an NFL record with 15 fourth-quarter touchdown passes. He showed that brilliance in the clutch on the winning drive. He completed five passes, including a sensational 38-yard sideline catch by Mario Manningham to open the drive. On second down at the Patriots 6 and with only one timeout remaining, Belichick had his defense stand up as Bradshaw took the handoff. Bradshaw thought about stopping short of the end zone, then tumbled in untouched. “I was yelling to him, ‘Don’t score, don’t score,’” Manning said. “He tried to stop, but he fell into the end zone.” Brady couldn’t answer in the final 57 seconds, although his desperation pass into the end zone on the final play fell just beyond the grasp of All-Pro tight end Rob Gronkowski. New England (15-4), winner of 10 straight since a loss to the Giants in November, was done. “I thought we played very competitive. … We were in the lead for a good part of the game. We just came up a couple of plays short,” Belichick said. “You don’t feel good after you lose this game.”

Super Bowl

Monday, January 17, 2011 / Page 3

from page 1

Brady headed off with his head bowed, holding his helmet, while around him was the wild celebration by the Giants, NFL champions for the eighth — and perhaps most unlikely — time. “Great toughness, great faith and great plays by a number of guys today,” Manning said, deflecting some of the attention. Still, he one-upped Brady. And Peyton. “It just feels good to win a Super Bowl, it doesn’t matter where you are,” Manning said. It was the fifth trip to a Super Bowl for Brady and Belichick, tying the record. And it looked like a successful one when they stormed back from a 9-0 deficit and led 17-9 in the third quarter. But the Giants, who reached New England territory on every possession except a kneeldown at the end of the first half, got field goals of 38 and 33 yards from Lawrence Tynes. And it looked like Tynes, who kicked them into the Super Bowl four years ago at Green Bay and again this year at San Francisco, both in overtime, would get called on again. Then Belichick, known to try just about anything in a game, took a risk that didn’t pay off. The Giants are the first Super Bowl winner that was outscored during the regular season. They were 6-2 after that 24-20 victory at New England, then lost four straight and five of six. Coach Tom Coughlin insisted “the prize” was still within reach. Now the Giants are holding tight to that Vince Lombardi Trophy. “What I was concerned with was these guys making their own history,” Coughlin said. “This is such a wonderful thing, these guys carving their own history.” New England had the ball for all of one play in the first 11 min-

LAST WEEK’S POLL RESULTS: How do you feel about UNM property around Lobo Village being slated for commercial development? Excited. It’s about time we got some 44% businesses in the area. Wary. It’s starting to feel like a 28% corporate takeover. Indifferent. I can’t afford to live in Lobo 18% Village anyway. I don’t even know what Lobo Village is.

THIS WEEK’S POLL: House Bill 103 just made it through the House Judiciary Committee. The bill would essentially ban undocumented immigrants from receiving driver’s licenses. Are you against or for the bill? I am in favor. License scam is out of control and something needs to be done. I am against it. The legislation is discriminatory and would do more damage than good. I am indifferent.

LETTERS Pastors should live on their spiritual rewards Editor, I am certain that Senator McGill is right about people performing the tasks that God gives them the ability to do, (or, as some say, “God calls them to do”) regardless of what they are paid to perform those tasks. If the pay is too high for those tasks, people who do not have the ability to perform those tasks, or are not “called by God” to perform those tasks, are tempted to attempt to perform those tasks solely to reap the financial benefits, even though they do others a disservice by doing that. And, by the way, doesn’t this apply to the financial rewards that many so called “spiritual leaders” receive today?

COLUMN

Surviving college easier with company by Carrie Cutler

Daily Lobo columnist The bars and coffee shops near the University tend to remain busy during the semester. When I first started attending UNM, I wondered why the businesses around Central Avenue seemed so busy. It seemed to me as if hanging out in those shops was a tremendous waste of time, and a distraction from homework. I couldn’t imagine managing to get anything done. This should tell the reader what kind of nerd I am. My Friday nights are often a matter of reading and video games. I’ve surrendered to my nerd tendencies, and am laying the long odds on an employer appreciating that kind of full-on nerdiness. Now that I’m taking graduate math and science courses, I’m starting to see the utility of spending time in coffee shops and bars, engaged in something like a study group/ support group hybrid. I suppose the reason for my change of heart has a great deal to do with the volume of material I’m supposed to learn, and the room for interpretation which is entailed in learning it. Learning statistics for large data sets entails more than just regurgitating definitions on a test. I now have to figure out what it all means, which spirals into what I think I’m doing with my life and career, edging into questions about who I think I am. Learning does tend to challenge our beliefs about ourselves and the world, and if there’s anything that will cause a certain amount of existential doubt, it’s trying to figure out what the hell a data set would mean to the people reviewing your dissertation.

“You need someone who understands what the hell you’re complaining about, and can turn to you and say those magic words: ‘That hurts my brain, too.’”

After all, you have to convince someone to fund your research, and more people to sign off on your degree. Sometimes, when faced with brainmelting stress and an impossible workload, what you really need is the company of other students in the same class who are having the same problems. You need someone who understands what the hell you’re complaining about, and can turn to you and say those magic words: ‘That hurts my brain, too.’ While the conversation may not be directly cathartic, there’s still a great deal of comfort to be had in facing the challenge of education together. It’s comforting to know that you aren’t alone. I wish, as an undergraduate, that I had taken advantage of being in the same class with people I thought were smart and interesting, and sitting down, over a cup of coffee (or a beer, for those of legal age), and talking about what I did, or did not, understand out of the homework or a lecture. I’ve found, as a graduate student, that

talking about the material sometimes gives me those ‘ah-ha’ moments which allow me to better understand what I’ve been asked to understand. It’s easy, at least for me, to get obsessed with finishing an assignment just so, or to try to work ahead in my homework. Knowing that I have set aside time to go meet someone to talk about course work allows me to put down my work and relax a little. As we head into the next month of the semester, it’s worth making a little time, if you have it, to sit down and talk about the classes you’re in with other students. Sit down in the library, look at your notes and tell everyone else there studying with you what you think it means. Ask them if they understood the notes differently. Talk about the class. Are there things that are working for you? Are there things that are not working? Can someone explain the ideas in the course you don’t understand? Can you explain to someone who doesn’t understand? It’s proverbially true that explaining something helps you be more confident in what you know, and can help you figure out where you didn’t understand something as well as you might have thought. I’m teaching again this semester. I hope my students have been able to talk to each other, and that they sometimes talk about the material from my class when they’re just hanging around. If they can talk about it, explain it and think about it, they’ll get so much more from my class.

The Daily Lobo is looking for...

Surge comes too late for win by Cesar Davila

Lobo Winners! Men’s Basketball

defeated Air Force 81-42 and Boise State 65-49

Women’s Basketball

Down 67-62, with just one minute left in the game, the Lobo women’s basketball team had three layup opportunities to win — none of them rolled in. “We missed a lot of easy shots,” head coach Yvonne Sanchez said. UNM fell to the Boise State Broncos 68-64 Saturday afternoon at The Pit, despite a resurgent effort from the Lobos, who closed the gap to five points after being down 6843 with 4:17 left in the game. “Boise State is a good team, and they’re better than their record indicates,” Sanchez said. “But again, it’s a game we could’ve won. It’s a game that was close down at the end. And it’s a game that, had we not had 20 turnovers, it might have been a different story.” In the first half, the Lobos (7-15, 1-7 MWC), turned to junior guard Caroline Durbin and senior forward Porche Torrance to stay in the game and trail 29-26 at halftime. Both players combined for 20 of the 26 points UNM scored in the half. Torrance neared a doubledouble with eight rebounds. UNM kept the game close early thanks to Bronco forward Lauren Lenhardt’s trouble with fouls. Back in January, the Lobos lost to the Broncos by 19 points at Boise, Idaho. Lenhardt led all scorers with 23 points in only 24 minutes. Lenhardt picked up two fouls in the first five minutes and sat the bench for the remainder of the half. And in similar fashion, Lenhardt played most of the second half and dominated the Lobos with 16 secondhalf points off of 6-of-10 shooting.

Adria Malcolm / Daily Lobo Boise State freshman forward Amber Vandiver screens UNM senior guard Lauren Taylor on Saturday afternoon in The Pit. The Lobos were defeated 68-64 and are 1-7 in MWC play. “(Lenhardt) was pretty smart to stay out of trouble in the second half,” Sanchez said. “She definitely was the difference.” With 12:14 left in the game in a 4040 game, it was Lenhardt who sparked a 23-8 run with a 3-point basket. The Lobos then clawed back and went on a 14-4 run of their own to cut the lead to five points with 1:44 left. Durbin scored 11 of the team’s 14 points in the stretch, but it wasn’t enough. UNM then missed the three opportunities it had to complete the comeback. “I wasn’t being patient down low, I was kind of rushing my

shots,” Torrance said. “I think that made a huge difference.” Durbin led all scorers with 27 points. Torrance recorded her fifth double-double of the season with 17 points and 15 rebounds. UNM shot 40.4 percent for the game, making 23-of-57 field goals. The Lobos are only one game ahead of last-place TCU in the conference standings, but still have the Mountain West Conference tournament to look ahead to, Torrance said. “As a team we are frustrated,” she said. “You’re not always going to have a winning season, so we just have to keep our confidence up and play as a team.”

sports@dailylobo.com The men’s tennis team struck down two teams in one day. UNM swept its competition Saturday, beating Western New Mexico and Colorado State University-Pueblo with the same 7-0 score. After losing two matches last weekend to Miami and No. 5 Florida, head coach Alan Dils said he was pleased with his team’s improvement. “I was really happy with most of the players. We played with a good intensity and played hard,” he said. “We were able to work on a few things we have been working on in practice.” Senior Carl Ho led UNM at the No. 1 spot, as Dils chose to give many of the fringe players a chance to prove themselves. Ho said he enjoyed leading the team by playing on the first court in both games, and said playing two matches in the same day helped him get into a rhythm. “We played pretty good, and we got some of the guys lower in the lineup some matches as well,” he said. “It felt good to play on the No. 1 court and help out the other guys.” In first match against Western New Mexico, the Lobos easily won the doubles point led by Ho and freshman James Hignett, as they won 8-3. In singles play, UNM lost only one set as it earned its first sweep of the day. In the second match against CSU-Pueblo, UNM improved on its doubles play, dropping only three games, winning 8-1, 8-2, 8-0. In singles play UNM didn’t drop a single set as it easily beat the Thunderwolves. Dils said he was impressed with how well his team responded from the losses it suffered last weekend. “We only lost one set in all the single matches, so overall — pretty good,” he said. “I was really happy. It’s always nice to win a match after you’ve lost one, whether it’s

WOMEN’S TENNIS

BOISE, Idaho — The men’s basketball team won its third straight MWC with a victory against Boise State, 65-49. The Lobos quickly took control of the game and took a seven-point lead into halftime. The second half was much of the same, as the Lobos continued to dominate, taking as much as a 21-point lead over Boise State, who has yet to win a MWC game. The Lobos shot 44 percent from the floor to the Broncos’ 31 percent. Sophomore guard Kendall Williams led all scorers with 18 points. Sophomore guard Tony Snell chipped in with 13 and senior forward Drew Gordon finished with 10 points and 10 rebounds.

Weekly Horoscopes by Alexandra Swanberg

Nostradamus ain’t got nothing on us! Capricorn—Expect the buds of a new

Taurus—Dropping energy levels are coaxing

Virgo—It’s an odd sensation to yearn

relationship planted the last month to bloom Wednesday. You’ve invested some time and patience in this person, whether the relationship is romantic or otherwise. By midweek, you may feel the time has come to either cut the person loose, or, more likely, you will find your efforts have paid off. Let this person reward you handsomely for the fruits of your labor, but try not to be demanding. Aquarius—You’ve been nursing something like a hole in your heart. You need companionship, something between a platonic and romantic affair. Perhaps you’ve let a smothering influence take more than their share of the love you have to offer, or you’ve kept it reserved waiting for the right person who never seems to come along. Either way, your stifling situation will be resolved this week. Diplomacy is your preference, but to effectively move on before it’s too late you may have to risk stepping on toes. Pisces—The last couple weeks, you’ve carried on with a weightlessness you rarely experience. The world is a cruel place that wants too much, and while that has not changed, your attitude towards it has, resulting in lifted spirits. You haven’t forgotten their toils; they are still present in your own life as well. The important thing to consider is the nature of this difference, so you can recall how you arrived as this elevated state when eventually it falls heavily on your shoulders again. Aries—By midweek when Venus transitions into Aries, the two-faced aggression you’ve been keeping at bay will trick you into letting it rule the roost. You can be tyrannical at times, thinking you deserve everything. Although you are a worthy person, everyone has to work hard for what they want. It is likely that rather than having been a victim, you’ve let opportunities pass you by and you’re truly cross with yourself for it. Use this hot energy to get you where you want to go.

you into complacency, a dangerous state at a time when you could be at the top of your game. The ideas are all rolling through your head, but without the physical force to execute them, what good are they to anybody? Don’t let your lazy side talk you into taking it easy in your toughest time, because persevering through it will be far more rewarding than any ephemeral pleasure. Gemini—In that past couple weeks, you’ve given yourself permission to pursue a dream, letting it push all others props and actors out of the spotlight. Unless this is entirely self-serving, there’s no need to feel guilty about this, although it’s easier said than done. More than likely, the now-supporting cast will be slighted and bitter, but if you could only convince them that what you’re doing is for the best in the long-run. No need to rationalize a poor choice; if you find yourself doing this, re-evaluate the decision. Cancer—During the last week or so, you’ve done some interesting experimentation especially where interpersonal relations are concerned. Regardless of what prompted the change of heart, this week you will come to experience the full pay-off for the time and thought you’ve put into this new you. The kind of reward will reflect the decision you made, so if you are met with animosity you may want to go back to the laboratory. Otherwise, stick with it. Leo—The past week has been rough with you, and although it seems the circumstances have been too cruel and unusual, this kind of thinking may blind you from the lesson that is to be gleaned. In the aftermath of any disaster, it is wise to consider how you dealt with the situation because this is when your true character emerges. Now that you’ve recovered, if you’re busy pointing fingers you may just be avoiding responsibility for the situation.

for something even after you’ve taken the appropriate steps toward it. This week, it is the goal you’re chasing is like a colander. Before you pour a lake through it, consider whether or not this endeavor is actually worth pursuing and ask what piqued your interest initially. It is more likely that you’ve become more obsessed with having accomplished it and less interested in the goal itself. You may retreat in time for an opportunity that otherwise would be missed. Libra—The teeter-totter you’ve been riding between altruism and selfishness has reached an even keel, which means you’ve found a partner to help you achieve balance, or will this week. This person is not necessarily a romantic interest, although the prospect is there if you want to mine for it. Before you get hot and heavy at the risk of falling off-kilter again, take some time to enjoy your placid mental state. Everything is going along smoothly for you this week. Scorpio—Last week it seems like just as you were putting the last puzzle pieces into place, an incident of clumsiness on your part, or someone else’s, knocked everything into disorder. The upset turned the burners up and everything in the pot boiled over. This apparent misfortune is a hidden opportunity for you to deal with everything you’ve forced out of mind. This week, take it easy and let yourself thoroughly feel all this to avoid future eruptions. Sagittarius—You may be caught off-guard by unexpected reactions to your recent surge of well-being. Now that you’ve relieved yourself of draining emotional bonds, you are free to soar. Don’t let their shocked expressions fool you into thinking you’re doing anything wrong by expressing your relief—they’ve simply become accustomed to the moodiness that accompanies resentment towards a psychic vampire.

4 years of losses whet thirst for victory against NMSU by Nathan Farmer

sports@dailylobo.com For the past four years, the women’s swim and dive team couldn’t beat NMSU. On Saturday the story changed slightly as team was able to tie with its Rio Grande rival. The last event was the 400-yard freestyle relay. The team included sophomore swimmers Jorgi Hobson and Heidi Zeiger, junior Marissa Campbell and senior Tesse Maciejko. The Lobos were losing 146-137, and the relay team knew they had to win to give UNM a chance to win the meet. “We just wanted to have a great meet for ourselves, and most importantly for the seniors,” head swim coach Tracy Ljone said. “We are really excited going into today they had the upper hand. In our books it’s a close as you can get to a win.” With a time of 1:46.37, the relay team gave the Lobos just enough points to eliminate NMSU’s lead and end the meet in a tie. Earlier this season, the Lobos lost to NMSU by more than 150 points at the Cougar Classic Fall Invitational in Houston. Senior swimmer Nicole Peirce said the result shows how far the team has come in the past few months. “I think today was a good representation of how we are going to do in the future,” she said. “It shows how strong we are as a team and hard we have worked all year long.” UNM took both first and second place in the 1-meter and 3-meter diving events. Senior diver Ashlee Erickson competed in her last diving competition at UNM. She won the 1-meter dive with a score of 291.90. Sophomore diver Megan Harper finished with a score of 283.10. Freshman diver Michole Timm won the 3-meter dive with a score of 302.25. Harper got her second

Junfu Han / Daily Lobo UNM’s long jumper Zach Smith, sophomore, marked a 6.70 meter jump in the men’s long jump at the University of New Mexico Collegiate Classic on Friday night at the Albuquerque Convention Center. Smith finished in 14th place.

The track team’s weekend was anything but classic at the New Mexico Classic. After last weekend’s performance, which included 44 top-10 finishes in the New Mexico Invitational, the men and women only managed 27 top-15 finishers out of more than 50 events. Head coach Joe Franklin said the team had a drop in form, compared with how well it did in the New Mexico Invitational. “I think we just hit it so well last weekend; you can’t improve every weekend,” he said. “You are going to have moments where you have a dip and have to train to get better. I think this was one of those weekends.” UNM placed three runners in the top 10 in the 800-meter race with sophomore mid-distance runner Gabe Aragon placing first, with a time of 1:50.96. Sophomore mid-distance runner JP Cordova and junior middistance runner Sam Evans placed fifth and sixth, respectively. Freshman sprinter Beejay Lee got his second straight top-10 finish in the 60-meter dash after finishing sixth, with a time of 6.88 seconds. Junior sprinter De’Vron Walker continued his strong start to the season, finishing fifth in the 60-meter

hurdles with a time of 8.05 seconds, his fourth top-10 finish this season. The women’s team was led by junior sprinter Shirley Pitts, who finished fifth in the 400-meter race with a time of 55.43 seconds. Pitts said she started off the race poorly, but was able to make up for it for her fifth-place finish. “My 400, I just came out — I didn’t get a good placing and I had to catch everyone, but I caught three people and ended up getting second in my heat,” she said. Pitts said even though the team wasn’t as good as the week before, everyone is still improving. “This weekend, everybody is getting a little bit better,” she said. “There are three more weeks until conference and everyone is progressing well, so for conference everyone will be at their peak.” Next weekend, the Lobos host the Don Kirby Invitational that brings in national powerhouse teams such as UCLA, Texas, Florida and Ohio State. Franklin said he wasn’t worried with how the team finished this weekend because they used this meet as preparation for the Don Kirby Invitational. “There were some good performances but as a whole everyone was kind of flat, and I think we are preparing for next weekend,” Franklin said.
