Trial against UNM begins

The Independent Voice of UNM since 1895

IT’S GOOD TO BE KING

Sharon Warner sues over breach of contract by Luke Holmen holmen@unm.edu

UNM professor Sharon Warner is suing UNM for a $1.5 million breach of contract, following what her lawyer said is a mishandled whistle-blowing complaint about sexual harassment committed by another professor. Warner’s complaint, which was filed in September 2009, will be heard Monday through Friday of this week before a jury in the District Court in Santa Fe. Warner filed an Office of Equal Opportunity (OEO) complaint after she received an anonymous complaint letter. The authors claimed to be parents of a UNM student. The letter included pictures of Lisa D. Chávez,a creative writing professor, posing as a “dominatrix professor” and disciplining “misbehaving students,” according to the lawsuit. Chávez was identified as “Mistress Jade” in a local phone-sex company, People Exchanging Power, in 2008. On the People Empowering People website, the advertisement for “Mistress Jade” read, “Do you want a biker bitch, an imperious goddess or a stern teacher ready to punish unruly students?” In one photo, she posed with then-graduate student Liz Derrington. Warner’s attorney, Arnold Padilla, said Warner is filing for damages which could amount to between $500,000 and $1.5 million. Padilla said Warner lost her chairship after she complained about Chávez posing with Derrington. In 2009, Warner filed a lawsuit against UNM for retaliation, breach of implied contract and breach of covenant of good faith. Padilla said Warner’s complaints filed with the OEO were unsuccessful. Chávez still teaches creative writing classes at UNM. She was never found guilty of any wrongdoing in investigations conducted by UNM. In an email in September 2010, Chávez said those who accuse her of wrongdoing should accept the University’s judgment. “It is only a few people who continue to drag down our department by their refusal to let this matter rest,” she said. Warner claims UNM is procedurally required to acknowledge

UNM spends hundreds of millions of dollars on technological development each year. The federal government foots most of the bill according to The Office of Instutional Research. In one project, undergraduate students are building satellites for NASA, using funding supplied by the Air Force. In one of the closest partnerships between UNM and federal agencies, students work with the Air Force Research Laboratory’s Space Vehicles Directorate on military and aerospace innovations, including a type of microsatellite that uses light-detection technology to study the upper atmosphere and enhance GPS systems. AFRL is working with the Configurable Space Microsystems Innovations and Applications Center (COSMIAC), which is housed in UNM’s electrical engineering department, to develop CubeSats. The 4x4x4-inch satellites are expected to be ready for use by NASA by the end of this year, said Matthew McCullough, an electrical engineering undergraduate researcher. He said the project is a unique opportunity for undergraduates to participate in impor-

tant research, an opportunity not available at all universities. “A nice thing about COSMIAC is that we are not merely focused on research,” he said. “We also want to expose motivated students to space electronics and space systems.” McCullough, who has worked with COSMIAC since May 2010, said developing leading technology in college is an opportunity all undergraduates should take advantage of. “You learn a lot in the classroom, but here you apply what you have learn.” Federal agencies contributed 78 percent of the $370 million in research awards and grants given to UNM in 2010, the most recent data year. The majority of grants, research awards and partnerships go to hard science departments and come from agencies including NASA, the Department of Energy and the Office of Naval Research.

the complaints she filed with OEO and that a Graduate School of Arts and Sciences policy prohibits sexual relations between students and faculty. ChĂĄvez filed a complaint against Warner in October 2007 alleging discrimination. ChĂĄvez said Warner accused her of being â&#x20AC;&#x153;immoral,â&#x20AC;? cancelled some of her classes, and gave her last choice when deciding what classes to teach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have been the target of discriminatory practices by Sharon Oard Warner â&#x20AC;Ś for 1.5 years and this discriminatory behavior has created an increasingly hostile work environment,â&#x20AC;? the complaint says. In the complaint, ChĂĄvez said the sexual harassment accusations are false. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a current investigation going on in which I am being investigated for a fallacious charge of sexual harassment,â&#x20AC;? the complaint said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has spiraled out of control until I feel I am both under attack and being slandered badly enough that my career both at UNM and in general are at stake.â&#x20AC;? ChĂĄvez said former chair of the English department David Jones failed to address her complaints about Warner. UNM President David

Schmidly, who was subpoenaed in the case, declined to comment. ChĂĄvez was unreachable by phone as of Sunday. Padilla said the University marginalized Warner and ignored her claims, along with the claims by other faculty and students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They violated policies and procedures in place, particularly policy 2200, which says that any employee who takes action on behalf of the University, or students or faculty is entitled to do so without retaliation,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She suffered a great many personal and professional setbacks (coming) from the chairman all the way up to the president.â&#x20AC;? In November of 2009, the Daily Lobo reported Warnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband, Teddy Warner, filed a lawsuit against the University after his wife filed hers in September. He claims the University retaliated against him by cutting his pay by 20 percent because of his wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s activities, a cut that is burdensome when compounded by legal fees. Last year a judge ruled his case will be decided after Sharon Warnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case is decided, Padilla said. UNM graduate student Carrie Cutler, who will testify before the

jury Friday, said ChĂĄvez spread false rumors alleging that Cutler planned to kill Derrington, and that she was mentally ill. ChĂĄvez was Cutlerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dissertation adviser but she was dropped after the anonymous letter surfaced. Cutler filed an OEO complaint, but said the University ignored it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disappointing when governance and rules designed to protect us fail the way they fail here,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am saddened by how long this has gone on and the extent to which the University has attempted to avoid its responsibilities.â&#x20AC;? Cutler said she will testify in favor of Warner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I intend to talk about the ways the oversight has failed and hope that this will come to a resolution in a way that will fix some of these issues,â&#x20AC;? she said. She said she considered filing a lawsuit against the University, but could not find a lawyer willing to take on the University. Padilla said this is not uncommon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The University relies on the fact that it is a giant institution â&#x20AC;Ś and they rely on the fact that students and faculty donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the resources to take them on.â&#x20AC;?

LETTER

Churches should be taxed, stop interfering Editor, It fascinates me how many Christian religious leaders around the country will preach of the “last days,” which is referenced in the book of Revelations in the Bible. In addition, references are made in said book about oppressive forces acting against Christianity. This concept fascinates me, considering we live in a society in which megachurch leaders make fortunes off of the faith and donations of their congregations, despite calamity and misbehavior by preachers such as Ted Haggard and Eddie Long. On top of that, an all-male delegation of “top religious leaders” travelled to Washington to attempt to mandate the conditions for women’s access to birth control. It frustrates me to see such people, who, by the way, are not taxed, find it in themselves not to include their churches in the tax system, or contribute to the overall economic situation in America, yet they want to set standards, rules and control over the mainstream population, whether it be birth control, abortion, gay-marriage rights, decriminalization of marijuana or other social issues. Remember Rick Perry’s solution to America’s economic situation a few months ago — to hold a huge public prayer meeting — and guess what? It didn’t work. Perhaps because their way hasn’t really worked for more than 200 years, the religious should respect secular tradition and start contributing to the economy in the way that many, many Americans have had to do for many years. Maybe it’s time to start taxing churches, then?

COLUMN

City litterbugs, litter depresses ABQ by Alexandra Swanberg culture@dailylobo.com

The city disgusts me on a regular basis. At the bus stop, a man blew snot right onto the sidewalk, wiped the rest on his hand then boarded the bus where he, presumably, touched every fixture. On the side of the freeway, in broad daylight, I’ve seen people squatting over buckets because the world is their outhouse. Beneath the freeway overpass on Central Avenue, there’s an ever-present Pollock-smattering of pigeon droppings, smashed eggs and dead bird fetuses. Then there are the regular sights, such as vomit splashes, and my biggest pet peeve: litter. What separates litter from the rest of these is that litter is absolutely preventable. I can’t stop a drunkard from experiencing the inevitable side effects of such a lifestyle. I understand allergy attacks, and though I prepare myself with a wad of tissues, I know some people aren’t that organized. Pigeons can’t be trained, or, if they can, it would be a waste of resources. Homeless people are discouraged from loitering in public places, so it’s understandable they’d find other places to take care of business. Conversely, there is no excuse for littering. I can’t understand why people find it so easy to make the world an uglier place. My own sister will toss a cup or to-go box in the nearest bush the moment she tires of carrying it. I pick it up and she groans. I dated a guy who made fun of me for recycling. He

threw a pile of papers outside his car door, so I got out to pick them up and he threw out another pile before driving away. He did this like it was teasing, the way some men tickle their girlfriends. I was not tickled. Even more troubling is the trash I see right next to a trash can. If I stretch my imagination far enough, I can see someone quenching their thirst after a six-hour workout. They overdid it and emptying the bottle drained them, leaving enough energy to digest it and get them to bed. Thus, they tossed the bottle. However, given the choice between the ground and the trash can, both within tossing distance, why on Earth would anyone opt for the ground? Are they trying to punish the people in charge of sanitation in the city? One night before winter break, I got a call from my mother that my grandma had been injured in an accident. I was sobbing down the street, all I wanted was to be home and someone, I’ll never know who, hit me while I was down. That is to say, I saw a pile of garbage right next to a receptacle on Central Avenue. I mean this was really unusual. It was covered in mud, like someone had taken the bag out, dumped it and smeared it with filth to make it a bigger eyesore. This is clearly beyond laziness. I can summon one explanation for the madness, which is that trash-wielding folks are eying the mess plaguing the city and thinking, “Well, obviously nobody else cares about where they put it, so why should I?” I know there are people like me who cluck at the mess to their friends’ retorts of “tree-hugger” and “hippie.” I am a bit of a hippie, but that doesn’t

mean you have to be one to care about your environment. It’s like the difference between living in a neat, clean, home and something akin to a hoarder home. In the former environment, you feel happy, comfortable, like you can relax and enjoy being there. In the latter, you’d like to escape or even do something to make it habitable but are overwhelmed by the mess. I’m guilty of feeling too overwhelmed to do much about the litter problem. I’ll pick up trash sometimes, but I would do it a lot more if I knew I wasn’t the only one. I’ve said to myself over and over that I’ve got to organize a crew to help me one day a week and, bit by bit, we can get it under control. Of course, if people didn’t litter in the first place the problem would be solved, but I don’t expect such responsibility out of everyone. For those of you who do feel an inkling of responsibility for the place you call home, help me out. I vow to take one hour every Saturday to pick up trash if I get at least 20 people to do the same during the week. I’m a lone wolf, but grab some friends and make it an event. If I can get up at 4 a.m. for my second job, go to class and pull together a culture section every week and promise an hour of unpaid work on top of that, I’m sure some people will have an hour to spare. Of course I won’t know if everyone is doing as they say they will, but I can just imagine they’re following through; at the very least, I’ll know at least I’ve done something. After all, my second biggest pet peeve is people complaining without doing anything to help the problem.

Students make national TV ad by Jeffrey Hertz

hertzjeffrey@yahoo.com UNM students will produce a television advertisement designed to recruit students. Director of the Communications and Marketing Department Cinnamon Blair said students have created the advertisement for the last two years. She said the project benefits the University as a whole, as well as the individual students involved in its production. “This is a great opportunity for undergraduates studying communication and journalism and film because it gives them national recognition and better applicability in their field of study when they graduate from UNM,” she said. “This year we are excited to have students from the Anderson School of Management getting involved in the project.” Working through an internship with UNM’s Communication and Marketing Department, students create a 30-second and 60-second “institutional spot” to be shown during televised NCAA Lobo games. The commercial students put together last year, titled “Big Moments,” aired on CBS during the men’s basketball game against UNLV on Saturday. The commercial highlights “moments” that portrayed the rewarding experiences students have during their time at UNM. One part of the advertisement shows a student conducting an

Presidents

archeological dig. Another shows a basketball player, played by student athlete Phillip McDonald, preparing to run out of the tunnels before a game. Although the commercial will primarily be used during sports events, Blair said the University will use the commercial for other advertising as well. The internship gives students the opportunity to gain professional experience in film production, acting, music composition, cinematography and business. Every year, four undergraduate student interns are chosen from various disciplines to work with faculty advisers from their respective fields. This year’s interns are Rachelle Ray and Tyler Cheshire from the Communications and Journalism department, Hannah Gillis from Anderson School of Management and Daniel Maestas from the interdisciplinary film and digital media program. The students delivered the first formal presentation of their creative concepts to departments, including Athletics and health sciences, Thursday in the Student Union Building. Professional intern Tess Goering is a graduate student in communication and marketing and is aiding the undergraduates. She said the feedback provided by these constituents and the input offered by faculty advisers will help the interns move forward with a more cohesive theme that is agreed to best represent UNM as a whole. “This is an opportunity for us to

showcase our students’ talent here at UNM,” she said. Although faculty advisers from each department provide their interns with a great deal of guidance in making the commercials, the interns themselves are responsible for its actual production. The commercials that have been created the last two years have each been shown at the graduation commencement ceremonies in May. Blair and Goering hope to hold an opening for this year’s commercial in George Pearl Hall, in late April or early May. “Every year we see UNM through a new group of students’ eyes,” Blair said. “We are excited to see what is in store for this year.”

New rules, license fees and application methods will require New Mexico hunters to do some homework before planning their hunts for the 2012-13 seasons. Dramatic changes adopted by the State Legislature or approved by the State Game Commission will affect the application process, season dates and how many licenses are reserved for state residents. The changes were designed to streamline the application and licensing process, provide more hunting opportunities for state residents, and to make drawing results and refunds available much sooner. Say goodbye to paper application forms. Beginning this year, applications for all licenses will be made through the Department’s online application system at www.wildlife.state.nm.us.

over the counter from license vendors statewide. Senior and junior hunters, handicapped and some military may be eligible for discounted licenses.

License and application fees will be charged at the time of application. Applicants can pay by credit card or electronic check, a new convenience beginning this year. Once an application is complete, it can not be changed, only deleted. Applicants can reapply, and will receive a refund for the deleted application after the drawing.

Hunters who need help applying for 2012-13 licenses online can get it from a real person over the telephone or at one of several locations with public computers staffed by Department of Game and Fish representatives.

New legislation requires everyone who hunts or applies for a license in New Mexico to purchase a Game-hunting License or a combination Game-hunting and Fishing License. Game-hunting ($15 for residents, $65 for nonresidents) and Game-hunting and Fishing licenses ($30, residents only) will be available online or

Assistance is available from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. MST, by calling toll-free, (888) 248-6866. The Department will offer computer access in public locations statewide. Look for more information and locations online, www.wildlife.state.nm.us.

Adria Malcolm/ Daily Lobo UNM first baseman Jacob Nelson swings for a strike during the game against Nevada on Friday afternoon at Isotopes Stadium. The Lobos were defeated 2-1 in the series.

by Thomas Romero-Salas tromeros@unm.edu

After splitting the first two games, the baseball team had a chance to take the series from Nevada but failed in the last inning. UNM lost 5-3 on Friday, and won 3-2 on Saturday. In the bottom of the ninth, with a runner on third base and Nevada winning 9-8, freshman third baseman Alex Real struck out to lose the game, but junior shortstop Alex Allbritton said the game was lost much earlier. “Coach Birmingham said we lost the game in the first couple of innings right there, but I think we can take some positives out of it,” Allbritton said. UNM starting pitcher Alexis Garza got two quick outs to start the game, but it went downhill from there. He loaded the bases after he gave up a double, a walk and hit a batter. The Wolf Pack was able to cash in when infielder Kewbey Meyer hit a double to left center making

the score 2-0. The second inning was a continuation of the first. The Lobos committed two quick errors to help Nevada score another run. Junior pitcher Shelby Brummett then came on to relieve Garza, but he didn’t the change the pace of the game. On his first pitch, he gave up a single to give Nevada lead 4-0. Garza only pitched one inning, giving up three hits along with a 27.00 ERA, but he wasn’t the only pitcher to struggle. UNM used six pitchers during the game. Birmingham said once Garza lost his confidence, everything changed. “First two guys he faced, I thought he was going to be on today,” Birmingham said. “Once that kid hit that double off the wall that changed the entire complex, he panicked.” The Wolf Pack added one more run at the end of the inning, to make it 5-0 off a double down the left-field line. UNM was able to make a comeback, as freshman outfielder Ryan Padilla hit a 2-1 pitch to right field, to bring in the first two runs of

the game for the Lobos and an RBI from Allbritton made it 5-3. UNM tied the game when junior catcher Mitchell Garver hit a one out single in the fifth. In an attempt to hold the lead in the inning, Nevada made a pitching change, but senior outfielder John Putsay rolled a grounder to second to give the Lobos a 7-6 lead. Nevada struck back and Wolf Pack first baseman Brett Jones hit a double to right field to put Nevada ahead 8-7. Nevada took the lead for good in the eighth inning, with a single that brought in the winning run from second. With the bases loaded and two men out, sophomore first baseman DJ Peterson hit the ball right back to the pitcher to end the threat. Birmingham said Peterson needs to take what the opposing team is giving him and not try to win the game with one swing. “DJ is a great hitter but he’s trying to do much and they took advantage of that,” Birmingham said.

sports briefs WOMEN’S TENNIS The women’s tennis team had a difficult weekend, dropping both of its matches to Colorado University and Denver University. On Saturday, The Lobos did not earn a single point and were swept 7-0 by Colorado. After the Lobos lost the doubles point, in singles play No.1 sophomore Michaela Bezdickova had the best chance to earn a point for UNM, but after winning the first set she dropped the last two. The story was the same for the rest of the team as no player was able to earn a point for UNM. On Sunday, the Lobos once again were on the losing end to Denver, 6-1. After being beaten in doubles play, four of the top five players in singles play were beaten in straight sets. Bezdickova took her game to three sets but lost in the final one, 6-4.

On the sixth court, freshman Katie Wookey won the only point for UNM, defeating Michelle Garpenlov in straight sets, 6-1 7-6. The women’s tennis team is now 3-2 in the season.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL The women’s basketball team lost its second straight game on the road to UNLV, 65-60. After a back-and-forth first half, the Rebels took the lead with 1:26 left in the first half and kept it for the rest of the game. In the second half, UNLV took an 11-point lead, though the Lobos cut it down to four in the final minute. Junior guard Caroline Durbin led the team with 19 points, and senior guard Lauren Taylor chipped in with 10. The loss takes UNM to 8-17 in the year and 2-9 in the MWC.

Recap from page 12 After going scoreless for two straight games against San Diego State and Wyoming, Snell finished the game with 12 points from four of eight shots. He also led the team with five assists. “He got going tonight,” Alford said. “He made a couple shots. He

dunked the ball and took the ball to the basket hard. I thought he had a really special game.” UNM outscored UNLV’s bench 14-3, most of it coming from sophomore guard Demetrius Walker’s nine points. The Lobos finished the game,

making 25-of-59 baskets for 42.4 percent. Beating ranked teams back-toback in one week should put UNM on the map, Gordon said. “We’ve been overlooked this whole year,” Gordon said. “And now we should be ranked on Monday.”

UNM STUDENT DISCOUNT

Tryouts rare chance to play by Nathan Farmer

sports@dailylobo.com Students who are not yet athletes at UNM will have a rare chance to try out for the Division I football team. The Lobo football team is holding open tryouts on Feb. 29 for the upcoming season. Team representatives will hold a meeting for interested players Wednesday at 5 p.m. on the second floor of the Tow Diehm Complex. Head football coach Bob Davie said holding open tryouts is something he did in former coaching jobs, and is going to try to put in place with the program. “With my background, having been on the staff at Texas A&M, where the 12th man started with head coach Jackie Sherrill, starting that tradition was one of the best things we ever did,” Davie said. “My son also was a walk-on for four years at Arizona State, so, from a personal standpoint, the walk-on program is very important to me.” For the past three seasons, UNM lost five football scholarships

because of two former coaches’ alleged violation of NCAA rules. This loss lowered the team to 80 scholarships year. The probation ended last season, and Davie said the tryout is even more important this year to try to get players in the program. “Specifically at New Mexico, it’s even more critical because our scholarship numbers are low, and the walk-on program is crucial for us to get our numbers back up,” Davie said. The Lobos have six players on scholarship that have walked on the team, and three former walk-ons eventually played in the NFL, including Ryan Cook, who is currently playing for the Miami Dolphins. Offensive line coach Jason Lenzmeier said to get the Lobos past three straight 1-11 seasons, it will need the help of walk-ons. “The years that the New Mexico football program has been successful have been when the program has been built with the help of walk-ons, most of whom are New Mexico kids,” he said. Lenzmeier graduated in 2004 and was a four-year starter at UNM. He

said most of the walk-ons during his time were from New Mexico, which brought an added importance to the UNM program. “It’s huge that kids from this area know the history of the program,” he said. “They have a sense of pride about Lobo football, and that pride rubs off on others … I saw that firsthand when I played here.”

The softball team made it through Saturday with two wins, beating Northern Colorado and Central Arkansas, but failed to keep its undefeated season alive after it fell on Sunday to Purdue. The two wins on Saturday put the team’s record at 9-0, tied for the best start to a season in UNM history, but the 10-6 loss to Purdue takes them to 9-1 on the season. “I didn’t really come in with any expectations of wins and losses,” head coach Erica Beach said. “It’s really fun for me to see the team getting the recognition

and getting the wins for all the work they’ve put in.” In the first game, the Lobos went 5-0 over the Northern Colorado in the first inning and never looked back. The Lobo batters registered 11 hits and four home runs. Two of the homers were courtesy of junior infielder Stefanie Carramusa, while senior outfielders Shenise Cox and Jessica Lujan-Dresslar each had home runs of their own. Beach said the team’s power is partially thanks to hitting coach Lyndsey Angus. The other part is intuition. “Our team has been hitting home runs since day one,” Beach said. “We’re a power-hitting team.

The bottom line is that they know how to hit home runs.” The game ended in the fifth inning because of softball’s eight-run mercy rule. Junior pitcher Kaela DeBroeck was credited with the win. The Lobo bats stayed hot through the second game. Carramussa sent a solo shot over the left field fence to start the first inning against Central Arkansas. The Sugar Bears kept it close. The game tied 2-2 heading into the fourth inning. That all changed when sophomore infielder Jordan Sjostrand sent the ball out of the park, to bring in two runs. The home run was Sjostrand’s first of the season. “I wasn’t even thinking about it,” Sjostrand said. “I just did what coach says. I went up to the plate and put a good swing on a good pitch.” From there, UNM’s starting pitcher, freshman Carrie Sheehan, took over. Thanks to Sheehan, the Sugar Bears went hitless in the fourth and fifth innings. Cox’s home run in the top of the sixth sealed the win for the Lobos. “We knew that we were going to have to play really good defense and our pitching was going to have to step up this game,” Beach said. “Carrie Sheehan threw a really good game, and we did what we needed to do.”

New Mexico Daily Lobo

Weekly Horoscopes by Alexandra Swanberg

You will read it and you will like it. Capricorn—Now that the carefree

Taurus —It’s time you gained

Virgo— Anything can happen in

Aquarian influence has given way to Pisces, you’re probably looking for ways to regain control of your life. This is accentuated by last week’s fading moon, a time when you overlooked some more important things that required care. Before you rush into some life-changing project, take time to reflect and take it easy on yourself. The next step will become clear through quiet introspection. Aquarius—You may be feeling a bit sullen this week after some miscommunications that ended with volatile results. There is work to be done in order to patch up these relationships, and even if you know you weren’t in the wrong your diplomatic tendencies make you the best mediator. The worst thing you can do is to waste time contemplating solutions. Open everyone involved up to each other so their feelings are clear, and soon after a solution will follow. Pisces—Your mind has been collecting ingredients for your next creative endeavor. The cauldron is full and on Tuesday, the new moon in Pisces brings it to a full boil. Cackling away with the passion of a mad scientist on the brink of major discovery, you will be driven to carry this thing through to the end. The fruits of your labor will be ripe in two weeks when the moon is full. Aries—Try not to jump to conclusions, especially when dealing with others. If you’re looking, you’ll find yourself attracting positive people to fulfill any needs you have. This isn’t to say you can use them with nothing in return, and this is where open communication is important. Assumptions about people’s motives are likely on both sides of the equation, so if you care about keeping these people around talk it out.

perspective in your life, and there’s no better time than a new moon to deeply contemplate. Go all out on Tuesday; once you’ve got everything checked off the agenda, go anywhere you can be alone to relax. Dim the lights, spark some candles or incense, set the tone to something otherworldly. Get in touch with yourself and you’ll find yourself more in tune with your life and everything in it. Gemini —Your ability to tolerate life’s doldrums is running low this week; you’re energy is spiking and sparking. Obviously, this has its advantages especially if you’ve got a loaded plate and limited time to clear it. However, you may have a hard time being patient with people who can’t keep up with the pace. If you do lose your temper, do your own thing until everything is done. Don’t forget to sincerely apologize afterward. Cancer —Less is more sometimes, and this is one of those times. This statement can apply to anything as the past few weeks under the Aquarian influence have sapped your energy and tested your every weakness. Now you probably know you’re capable of more than you thought given how you performed admirably under the circumstances. Regroup this week, treat yourself and figure out how you can put your hidden talents to good use. Leo —Your life has settled down, so breathe a sigh of relief. More than that, you might consider taking some time for the equivalent of a mental retreat to calm your frazzled energy. This week is full of potential for creative inspiration, but you can’t work it while exhausted. Grab some friends and let loose for a while; more than rest, you need to get a load of your mind. With all the junk out, the good stuff can flourish.

dreams and usually it’s out of your hands. Think of this as your life the past couple weeks in that nothing you do seems to alter the outcome. Take some tips from lucid dreaming, the act of realizing you’re dreaming and then doing whatever you want. There are certain keys to this just as there are in life. Do what you need to and don’t worry about controlling the rest. Libra—I imagine this past week was something like the loner walking down rain-slicked streets late at night, waiting for something lifechanging to happen. The dawn is coming this week and will brighten your mood, but this will not solve all your problems. Instead of waiting for something to happen you need to figure out exactly what you want and go for it. Surprises are great, but reaching a goal that’s important to you is what you need. Scorpio—The gears in your life are falling into place smoothly this week, and it can only get better under the Pisces influence, which will last a couple weeks. Usually when things roll along, the pace gets to be too hectic. Nothing will be predictable, but you’ll be more capable of going along with it. Keep living in the present and you’ll find there’s no real need or purpose to worry about what will happen or has happened. Sagittarius—You may be feeling more sensitive than usual this week, more susceptible to harsh quips and slights. This seems problematic because you’re not one to wear your emotions on your sleeve, not the negative ones at least. You project an image of the free-spirit, someone nothing can touch. This is an unrealistic expectation. Now that you know who’s actually damaging your spirit, consider how much you value you the relationship.

Forward performs 27-point, 20-rebound feat by Nathan Farmer

sports@dailylobo.com Senior forward Drew Gordon achieved a feat no Lobo has completed since 1976, in UNM’s win over No. 11 University of Nevada-Las Vegas on Saturday. Gordon finished with a careerhigh 27 points and 20 rebounds, and became the first UNM player to go for more than 20 points and 20 rebounds in a single game since Jimmy Allen did it on Dec. 1, 1976. “That was probably my best game, and things were just falling for me,” he said. “The basketball gods were good to me today.” Gordon became just the fifth player in the country in the past 10 years to go for more than 20-20 against a top-25 team in a game that finished in regulation. Gordon said the win was great for the team because of UNM’s earlier defeat to UNLV. “It was a lot of fun, especially since we lost the first time,” Gordon said. At halftime Gordon had only nine points, but he came alive in the second half. With 16:20 left in the game and the Lobos with a one-point lead, Gordon scored 10 straight points. In the second half, he went on a sevenshot run. His 18 points in the second half matched the scoring total of the entire UNLV team for the half. Gordon struggled earlier in the season with his mid-range jumper, but he said that in the past few weeks his shot has come together. “It didn’t really show at the beginning of the season and that blew my confidence level completely,” Gordon said. “I then just got in the gym and practiced jumpers, and that is why they have gotten better.” On Wednesday against No. 17 San Diego State, Gordon finished with 17 points and 17 rebounds. In his past three games, he has had a combined 50 rebounds. Head coach Steve Alford said Gordon showed that he is one of the best players in the MWC this season after his performances last week. “Drew, is hands, down player of the week in our league this week,” Alford said. “What he did this week, 17-17 at San Diego State, then he comes back and puts on a performance that hasn’t been seen in this place in a long time, if ever.” Gordon has started 25 of the

Faceoff leads to victory over No. 11 in nation by Cesar Davila

hendrix@unm.edu

UNM’s Drew Gordon and UNLV’s Mike Moser were supposed to face off Saturday morning in front of a nationally televised

audience and a sold-out Pit — only one guy showed up to play. The unranked Lobo men’s basketball team beat No. 11 UNLV 6545, with a 27-point, 20-rebound performance for the ages from Gordon. “Having a player like Drew is good

for us, especially with his performance tonight,” sophomore guard Tony Snell said. “He was great.” It is only the fifth time a player has recorded a 20-20 against a top-25 team in the last decade. Pittsburgh’s DeJuan Blair last did it in 2009 against Connecticut. Gordon, who set a career-high in points, made 13 of 20 shots for the game and scored 19 secondhalf points — the same number of points the entire UNLV team scored in that half. Early on it looked like it was Mike Moser’s game to shine. UNLV’s 6-foot 8-inch sophomore forward hit two 3-pointers in the first two minutes to give the Rebels an early 6-2 lead that silenced the crowd of 15,411. Then Moser disappeared. He scored two more points the rest of the game — but the Lobo defense had a say in that. After allowing the highest shooting percentage of the

season to UNLV, the UNM defense suffocated the Rebels, holding them to season lows in points (45) and field goal percentages (31.1) for the game. “I don’t know if we are the best team in this league yet, but there is no team in the last month that has guarded the way we have guarded,” Alford said. The Lobos (22-4, 8-2 MWC) have held six of their last seven opponents to less than 55 points. Similar to their last meeting against UNLV, the Lobos trailed close at the half — but this time, UNM punched first. Tied 36-36 with 12:14 left, the Lobos forced the Rebels into five turnovers and three missed field goals in a four-minute span, and went on a 16-1 run to increase their lead to 52-37. The Rebels never responded. Gordon said the electricity from the crowd helped put the Rebels away.

“We are playing at The Pit, and when you are not making baskets, it gets frustrating,” Gordon said. “We could see them dying a bit.” The Rebels only made four field goals in the second half. “I can’t thank our fans enough,” Alford said. “I was telling the CBS guys and they were agreeing that this is second to none. I don’t know of a better atmosphere anywhere in the country.” The Lobos avenged their 17point loss to UNLV from less than a month ago — the loss that sparked UNM’s seven-game win streak. “We gave them more competition this time around,” Snell said. “After they blew us out over there, we had to come ready to play.” And “ready to play” is what Snell was.
