SPINNING INTO THE UNKNOWN

More students are enrolling at UNM, but tuition hikes mean fewer students are staying. UNM’s undergraduate enrollment grew 4.5 percent the last year, according to the Office of Institutional Research. But its retention rates dropped from about 92 percent in 2010 to 88 percent in 2011. Wynn Goering, vice provost for Academic Affairs, said that the average retention rate in pre-recession years was about 89 percent, but he couldn’t account for the most recent drop. “It’s harder to know for sure whether this return to a more typical level means the economy is returning to normal,” he said. “One thing I can say is that we didn’t see any other patterns to account for the drop.” Because of the economic downturn, more people are choosing to go to school, said Terry Babbitt, associate vice president of Enrollment Management. “When the economy, and more specifically the job market, is contracting, higher education has always been a good option for those Undergraduate attendance increased 13 percent — 4.5 percent in the last year. In-state tuition and fees increased from $1,584 in fall 2002 to $2,752 in spring 2011. Nearly 30,000 undergraduates attend CNM each semester compared to 20,000 at UNM.

Professors leave UNM for better salaries by Luke Holmen holmen@unm.edu
Budget cuts and administrative obstacles have led several professors to leave UNM for higher-paying, more prestigious, and better-funded research programs at other universities. Kim Hill, a researcher who left UNM for Arizona State University in 2007, said she left because she got a better offer that UNM could not match. She said Athletics is more important to the University than retaining valuable research faculty. “I guess we could say I was not their
priority because they easily provide a much nicer package for the football coach than for any star academics,” she said. State appropriations support about 20 percent of UNM’s research, and they were slashed $8.3 million this year, $5.6 million was cut in 2010 and $11.7 million in 2009, according to the New Mexico Legislature. Money set aside to fund research grants and scholarships dropped from $123 million in 2004-2005 to $110 million in 2008-2009, even though it

Julia Roberts may never play him in a movie, but considering the work one UNM employee did to try to uncover the truth about a cancer cluster in Ohio, it’s hard not to compare him to Erin Brockovich. Adan Garcia, operations manager for the communication and journalism department, is the director of the documentary “Fighting for Answers,” a film that explores the role waste dumping played in the development of a cancer cluster near his hometown in Ohio. He said that in the last few years in the small town of Clyde,

more than 36 children have been diagnosed with cancer, and a four kids already died. He said the town, which has a population of about 5,000 people, is surrounded by waste sites and dumps. “So I went there about 2 1/2 - 3 years ago to start working on the documentary because I thought, ‘Well, what can I do on my part?’ So I did all this research, and anything I could to make it happen,” he said. In his film, Garcia featured three families from Clyde with children who had died from cancer. One of the families, the Browns, he knew personally. He said that when the Browns’ daughter, Alexa, died, he knew he had to do something.
$11.7 million in appropriations which help support research was cut in 2009, $5.6 million was cut in 2010, and $8.3
million this year. Research grants and scholarships dropped from $123 million in 2004-2005 to $110 million in 2008-2009. UNM faculty currently make 7 percent less than their peers.

“When she passed away, that’s when I really moved forward and went ahead with the documentary,” he said. “Because I always thought she would beat it. I didn’t think that she would pass away from this. … After seeing in the local paper that she passed away, I said, ‘OK I’ve got to do this.’” Garcia said Whirlpool Appliances and Vickery Environmental, Inc. are the two companies dumping the most waste into the water in Clyde. “(Vickery) has put over a billion gallons of chemical waste under the ground,” he said. “Whirlpool, which is the bigger manufacturer in Clyde, Ohio, they employ half of Clyde.

Ohio, they employ half of Clyde. I tried to interview them, and they declined to comment with me.” Garcia began working on the film in August 2009. He said it took him 16 months to complete, and that UNM students Jennifer Williams and Aaron Hamre helped him with the project as well.

to premiere his film earlier at the Ohio festival, or wait and have it premiere at Sundance, which is more prestigious. He said he used $10,000 of his own money to produce the film. “I’m paying it back still,” he said. “I sold my car to help finance (the film.) But it’s something I felt like I had to do.”
have the Lottery,” student James Aragon said. That, however, doesn’t account for non-residents who pay three times as much as residents and are ineligible for state-sponsored scholarships. Out-of-state student Ryan Smith said the rapid increase in costs of attendance is forcing him to leave UNM. “It’s just becoming too expensive,” he said. “I came here because UNM is supposed to be a bargain. That may have been true four years ago, but they’ve raised prices year after year and I am headed back to Texas. I am not paying $10,000 next year to go to a college that is average at best.”
By comparison CNM, which has kept its tuition stable, boasts more undergraduates than any state college, and its student growth the last five years amounts to a 31 percent increase, CNM spokesman Brad Moore said. CNM’s full-time charge is $591, 75 percent less than what UNM charges. Goering said retention and enrollment rates are related. “It’s a safe assumption that both our enrollment and retention increases for the past couple of years have been fueled by the recession,” he said. “That is, when jobs are scare students are more likely to stay in school.”
with the University’s inattention to research. “I did leave UNM this last year, but it was not because of research freedom,” she said. “No one at UNM ever interfered in my research, even when I was researching sensitive topics. … UNM even provided some of the funding for my research. I left UNM because of an opportunity to develop a master’s program.” Faculty pay is the largest section of UNM expenditures, according to the Office of Institutional Research. Richard Holder, deputy provost for Academic Affairs, said the University tries to persuade faculty members to stay by offering comparable salaries, research support, promotions and better lab equipment, but budget cuts
limit UNM’s ability to negotiate. “If they are offered $30,000 more somewhere else it is hard to match that,” he said. “The budget cuts affect us heavily because I&G money comes from the state.” Holder said UNM faculty members make 7 percent less than their peers at other institutions. “We are always, and always have been well behind our peers, and year after year we have tried to redress that by dedicating all of the money the state gives us to raises,” he said. “We haven’t had a raise in three years, but that is because of budget cuts….the only advantage UNM really has against other universities is the fact that everyone is experiencing budget cuts.”

Letters Cartoon depicting Obama as monkey is unneeded, overdone Editor, There is a lot of discourse taking place these last few days in regards to the moral appropriateness of a general celebratory attitude surrounding the death of Osama bin Laden. I find myself somewhere in the gray area between thrilled-silly and disowning those who find joy in the death of even the most evil people. But I do feel rather strongly that the publication of a “The Lion King”-themed cartoon depicting the president holding a severed human head (even that of a malicious terrorist responsible for the deaths of hundreds-ofthousands of innocents) is a grim and lowbrow move at this juncture. I realize that the cartoon itself is most likely an exaggerated commentary on Americans’ rash, ecstatic jubilation, as well as a possible jab at what some are considering a self-congratulatory speech by President Obama on Sunday night, but I don’t think that such a graphically obvious image does anything to promote a thoughtful reaction to what has happened and what’s to come. Not to mention, you just added another photo to the online database of images depicting Obama as a monkey. Justin Otsuka UNM student
Yesterday’s opinion cartoon was ‘blatant racial insensitivity’
Letters
Editor, I am writing you to address the blatant racial insensitivity of the political cartoon the Daily Lobo published today on its Opinion page. It depicts President Barack Obama as a monkey holding the severed head of Osama bin Laden. The cartoon seems to reference a scene from a Disney Movie “The Lion King.” Quite frankly, as a member of the African American community, as well as a student at the University of New Mexico, I am extremely offended by this depiction. The idea that at an open-minded college that claims to advocate for minority students is still capable of outright racism is profound. I suppose if the cartoon were to depict a person of Hispanic descent as a gardener or construction worker it would not be published unless it had a positive connotation? But of course in a state with an 83.6 percent (2009 census) Hispanic population, what else is to be expected? One could argue that my displeasure with the comic is because of my own racial oversensitivity. However, I disagree with that. If more people were as sensitive as myself, the problem would never have arose. Although the paper has already been published, and the Daily Lobo is not the one responsible for the production of the comic, they are responsible for it being published. Action must be taken by the paper. I would like a formal apology on behalf of the paper issued to the African-American community. The paper needs to take responsibility for its actions. Markela B.

The celebration of justice only leads to more violence, revenge Editor, I find it troubling and saddening that so many are rejoicing and celebrating the death of Osama bin Laden. I find it troubling and saddening enough that I posted about it twice in one day on my Facebook status. This may seem mundane and trivial, but I am not one for imposing my views on others. I am not one for revealing my views to others, and I am not one for serial and prolific Facebook updates. That being said, my Facebook updates (as with anyone’s Facebook updates — with
English, political science departments deserve praise Editor, Teachers in the Political Science and English departments care about their students. I am a senior majoring in English and Political Science. When I first came to UNM in 2007 I was a pre-med student studying chemistry and biology. I spent my first two years in that field, until I took American Politics with Dr. Michael Rocca in the Political Science Department and a creative writing course with Greg Martin, a professor in the English Department. It didn’t take long for me to recognize that these teachers had something special: passion. These teachers showed not only a genuine interest in my education and my coursework, but were also passionate about being educators. I saw that Martin and Rocca were not college professors for their own personal gain or to further their own research projects. They are college professors because they are passionate about educating students.
the exception of high profile “Facebookers”) reach only a certain portion of the population. In times like these, when we have the potential to influence and change, sometimes it comes down to a matter of reaching people and maybe even resonating with them on some level. So I would like to share these words that we as a country, and as a human race, would do well to remember and put into practice. It is hard not to think that some of the impulse to celebrate “justice being done” may also contain a certain pleasure in revenge — not just “closure” but “getting even.” The world is not safer with bin Laden’s violent demise (threat levels are going up, not down), so no cause for celebration there. Evil has not been finally removed from the Earth, so no reason for jubilation on that count. The
War on Terror goes on, so there is no closure in that regard. “The truth is that ‘celebrating justice’ when one person is killed — as happens regularly in the gang wars of American cities — only incites further desire for revenge, which, from ‘the other side’s’ viewpoint, is usually called ‘justice,’” Dr. Pamela Gerloff said in “The Psychology of Revenge: Why We Should Stop Celebrating Osama bin Laden’s Death.” “An eye for an eye only leads to more blindness,” Margaret Atwood said. We have heard it called it justice. And on some level, it probably is. But no matter which way you look at it, it’s schadenfreude.
After my experience in those courses, I changed my majors to English and Political Science because those teachers instilled a passion within me about their subjects. This was the best decision I have made in my four years at UNM. The staff and faculty have continually worked to better my educational experience on and off campus. The English department has provided me with phenomenal advisement, instruction and life skills. This fall, the English department is allowing me to complete the final hours of my degree abroad in England, an opportunity that comes once-in-a-lifetime. My English teachers know me by name, and encourage out-of-class interaction through e-mail and spending one-on-one time with me to answer my questions regarding coursework, future courses and future career opportunities. They truly want only the best for me and are relentlessly encouraging and challenging me to be better. The political science department funded and allowed me to spend an entire semester in Washington, D.C., interning for a member of the New Mexico Congressional Del-
egation. This experience changed my life forever by providing real-life skills through working full-time in a professional workplace, living in a different culture and region of the country and learning essential aspects of the American way of government first-hand. This was an opportunity that can never be fully explored by reading a textbook or attending class. I also had the opportunity to volunteer on a political campaign last semester during the 2010 election, another rewarding experience. Most importantly, my political science professors have challenged, confirmed, and provoked my personal political views and made me defend my beliefs with solid reasoning — an instructional method that will serve me well in the future. Any student still debating which major to choose should seriously consider majoring in English and/or political science. The department chairs, faculty, and staff of these departments have my deepest respect, appreciation and adoration, for they have inspired my life.

The boys and two adult leaders had been missing since Sunday, when rising water cut off their exit from the Albert Pike Recreation Area.
Safety-conscious scouts safe by Nomaan Merchant Associated Press
LANGLEY, Ark. — In the same remote valley where 20 people died in a flash flood last summer, six Louisiana Boy Scouts trapped by a rising river built a campfire and ate jambalaya and grits, confident rescuers would eventually arrive. The boys’ two adult leaders had them set up camp near a mountain they could climb if their trail flooded — one of a series of decisions that allowed the group to emerge unharmed from the Albert Pike Recreation Area in southwest Arkansas. Rescuers also praised them for good planning, leaving a map of their planned trek and avoiding the valley floor when they realized how deep and fast the river had grown. “They did exactly what they needed to do,” Montgomery County Sheriff David White said. “As long as they stayed on high ground, we figured they were going to be in good shape.”
“This was the lesson of all the things you could do right. There was nothing that could have been done differently to change the outcome.” ~Art Hawkins Executive Director, Boy Scouts’ Evageline Council, While the weekend’s conditions weren’t as bad as the deadly flood that struck last year while people were sleeping, they were dangerous. The boys crossed the Little Missouri River at the start of their trip Thursday but by the time they went to leave Sunday morning, it had grown to 70 yards wide and up to 5 feet deep. Scoutmaster Jeff Robinson tested it and ordered the troop to retreat. “I realized the water was too strong to cross the river with the boys,” Robinson said. A National Guard helicopter eventually plucked the group to safety after sunrise Tuesday. The boys said they passed the time in between talking and sleeping in. With no cell phone service available, several said their biggest concern was what their parents were thinking.
“I was worried that my parents would freak out,” said Ian Fuselier, 13. After eating jambalaya, eggs and grits Sunday, the boys had only one meal of jambalaya Monday. But Robinson said they had enough food to last several days, a water filter and a dry camp. “If we had to stay three, four, five days, we had the resources to do so,” he said. Troop 162 was reported missing when it didn’t return home Monday as planned, and anxious parents and relatives drove up from Lafayette, La. Search teams on the ground couldn’t find the boys, and rain and fog prevented a helicopter from doing a flyover. With no news about their children, the parents gathered Monday night at a local church in a scene eerily similar to a vigil nearly a year before. Pastor Graig Cowart led them in prayer, calling out the names of the stranded boys and asking for their safe return. Relatives joined hands. Some cried. “These people are really hurting,” Cowart said during the wait Monday night. “They felt really alone and isolated.” The Scouts themselves said there was no reason to worry. The troop had filed a detailed schedule and map for its hike with a Scout leader who didn’t make the trip, and they knew to avoid low areas during rain, said Art Hawkins, executive director of the Boy Scouts’ Evangeline Area Council in Lafayette. One of the problems authorities encountered the year before was they didn’t know exactly how many people were in the park. Also, people had camped in low areas despite being told a flash flood watch had been posted. The Scouts were found early Tuesday when the weather improved enough for a National Guard helicopter to make it into the park and spot their campfire. Just after 2 a.m., Guardsmen tossed the troop a bag with supplies: ponchos, food, water and blankets. After daybreak, a helicopter landed in a clearing about 300 yards from their camp. The pilot ferried the eight out in two trips, delivering them near a camp supply store where their families applauded their arrival. Parents who had appeared anxious hours earlier said they had full faith in Robinson and assistant scoutmaster Andy Trahan. “I knew they were well prepared,” said Jonah Fuselier, Ian’s father. Authorities didn’t have immediate estimates for how much the
rescue efforts cost or which local and state agencies would pick up the tab. The Scouts wouldn’t be asked to pay, Arkansas State Police spokesman Bill Sadler said. Hawkins said he was sure the boys thought about the people who died last year when they were hiking through the area, but he noted they camped in a different situation and location. “I wish I could videotape the whole thing,” he said. “This was the lesson of all the things you could do right. There was nothing that could have been done differently to change the outcome.”

Astronaut misses mother’s death by Colleen Barry Associated Press
MILAN — During 4 1/2 months in orbit, astronaut Paolo Nespoli was able to keep in touch with his ailing mother in Italy from the International Space Station via a video linkup. But the astronaut will miss her funeral. Maria Motta, 78, died on Monday evening at home while her eldest son continued his mission. She will be buried after a funeral in the church in Verano Brianza, a town of 9,300 north of Milan where she was born and where she raised four children, one of whom became an astronaut. “Even if he was prepared for this possibility — he knew about his mother’s health problems — it is painful not to be able to be near her at the last moments,” Verano Brianza Mayor Renato Casati told The Associated Press. To protect the family’s privacy, he declined to discuss the illness or its length, but he said that the family was able to be in frequent touch with Nespoli thanks to a video hookup installed in Motta’s home by the European Space Agency. Italian sons, in particular, tend not to venture far from home. But Nespoli, who has been training with NASA in Houston since 1998, has been orbiting the Earth since December on a mission scheduled

Officials say the mother of Italian astronaut Paolo Nespoli, who is on the International Space Station, has died in her hometown outside of Milan. to end in three weeks. The 54-year-old astronaut has been keeping his 43,000-followers on Twitter updated with photos posted from space as he circles the planet, commenting frequently on the beauty seen from his vantage point. The western region of China. Sunshine Coast, Australia. Rewari,
India. His last post was Sunday. Nespoli’s first space mission also was marked by the death of a parent. His father, a banker, died just months after Nespoli was notified he had been accepted for his first space mission, which launched in 2007. “Paolo said, ‘We have been
waiting so long for this, and my father didn’t make it to see it,’” Casati recalled. Casati said Nespoli’s wife and young daughter had traveled back from Houston to be with his mother. Motta is also survived by three other children. “She was proud of all her chil-
dren, not just one,” Casati said. Officials at the European Space Agency said that in such an instance it might be possible to set up a satellite hookup so the absent astronaut could participate in funeral services. However, Casati said he did not know if it would be technically feasible in time.

Woman arrested after Teen’s death prompts biting off boyfriend’s lip NM CRIME BRIEFS
abuse investigation
ROSWELL — Roswell police are investigating the death of a 14-yearold girl. They are classifying the case as child abuse resulting in death, but they have not released any details about what lead to the girl’s death. Her name also has not been released. Officers received a 911 call from a Roswell home early Tuesday. They found the girl dead when they arrived. A 1-year-old child who was also in the home was turned over to the state Children, Youth and Families Department. Authorities say detectives have spent the day doing interviews in hopes of determining what happened to the girl.
LAS CRUCES — Las Cruces authorities are holding a woman after police say she bit off her boyfriend’s lower lip during a heated argument. Police were called to a motel Sunday night and found a 35-yearold man with a bloody face and a missing lower lip. The police department says officers found the man’s lip on the ground, put it on ice and transported it with the victim to the hospital. Although the victim’s injuries are described as severe they are not believed to be life-threatening. Police arrested 26-year-old Aurelia Lorena Reyes Monday on one count of aggravated battery. She was booked into the Dona Ana County Detention Center and is being held on $10,000 bond.

Boy killed after playing between trailer, truck DEMING — Luna County sheriff ’s deputies say a 4-year-old Deming boy was fatally injured when a pickup truck moved as he was playing between the rear of the truck and a hydraulic utility trailer hooked to it. The Deming Headlight reports Damian Lopez was pronounced dead Friday at Mimbres Memorial Hospital about two hours after the Luna County Sheriff ’s Office was notified of the accident. Sheriff ’s deputies say the boy sustained severe head trauma. Deputies were told the child had been running from one spot to another and began playing with the trailer hitch. The driver of the pickup started to drive away but stopped when someone beeped a horn on another vehicle to alert him.
Police: Man shot, injuries ‘life threatening’ Albuquerque police say a man has been shot on the city’s eastside. Police found the wounded man on a sidewalk at Central Avenue and San Pedro Drive early Tuesday. The police department says the man was taken to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries. Detectives are investigating and police advise that Central is closed at San Pedro as part of the investigation.
Stuffed-animal hoarder charged with murder LAS CRUCES — A Dona Ana County grand jury has formally charged a man in the deaths of three people. Authorities arrested 48-yearold Gino Ferri April 8 for allegedly
hiding hundreds of stuffed lions, tigers, bears and other animals in five storage sheds. The investigation led to Ferri’s arrest April 20 in the deaths of 69year-old Gilles Delisle, his 72-yearold wife Helga and 68-year-old Peter Weith of San Diego. Authorities say they were killed in the Delisles’ Mesilla home on April 14, 2010. The trio was suing Ferri for $1.3 million. The Las Cruces Sun-News reports the grand jury returned an indictment Thursday on three counts of first-degree murder.

NM security upped after Osama’s death Associated Press New Mexico is on heightened alert after the death of Osama bin Laden, but no specific threats have been made to the state, New Mexico’s homeland security secretary said Monday. States were told to step up their alert status because of the uncertainty about what might occur in the wake of the al-Qaida leader’s killing by U.S. forces in Pakistan, Secretary Michael Duvall said. He said residents should be more aware and report anything suspicious to local law enforcement. New Mexico’s three Air Force bases and White Sands Missile Range also have heightened their security. The state Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management is checking open and classified information more often than it would otherwise to make sure the agency stays current, Duvall said. Duvall said the nation should have a better idea over the next few days what the reaction will be to bin Laden’s death.
“We’ll be able to build a better picture if threats to our security have decreased, stayed the same or have increased,” he said. Lt. Stephanie Sterine at Cannon Air Force Base near Clovis said the Air Force on Sunday ordered North American bases to “Force Protection Bravo,” one notch up from the way they’ve operated since Sept. 11. Bases have to be more vigilant and there might be longer lines to get onto a military instillation and more random searches, Sterine said. Kirtland base in Albuquerque and White Sands near Alamogordo said those entering bases will be subject to increased screening. Officials at Holloman base near Alamogordo said people also should be prepared to show two forms of identification. New Mexico’s largest airport, Albuquerque International Sunport, has not received any notice from the Transportation Security Administration for more security, said airport spokesman Daniel Jiron. However, he said workers are being asked to be more aware of what’s going on around them.

New Mexico Daily Lobo Derrick Rose of the Chicago Bulls won the 2010-11 NBA MVP on Tuesday. It’s Rose’s first MVP award and he becomes the youngest in league history to win it.
NBA picks Rose for MVP
M. Spencer Green AP Photo
by Andrew Seligman Associated Press
Lincolnshire, Ill. — Right from the start, Derrick Rose wondered why he couldn’t be the MVP. It turns out, nothing could stop him. Rose officially became the NBA’s youngest MVP on Tuesday and joined Michael Jordan as the only Bulls player to win the award, which was no surprise given his spectacular season and Chicago’s leap to a league-leading 62 wins. He has a ways to go before he catches Jordan, who won five MVPs and led the way to two championship three-peats, but he sure is off to a good start. “I’m not even touching that man right there,” Rose said. “I’m far away from him. If anything, it would be great to be close to him. This is a different team, a different era.” In his third year, the dynamic point guard led the Bulls to their best season since the championship era. The 22-year-old Rose got 1,182 points and 113 first-place votes from a panel of media voters, supplanting Wes Unseld as the youngest to win the award with a runaway win. Orlando’s Dwight Howard (643 points) finished second, Miami’s LeBron James was third, the Lakers’ Kobe Bryant was fourth and Oklahoma City star Kevin Durant finished fifth. A product of Chicago’s South Side, Rose established himself as one of the top players in the league after going from Rookie of the Year to AllStar in his first two seasons. He took another step this year with one of the best all-around performances by a point guard. He averaged 25 points and 7.7 assists while leading Chicago into contention for its first championship since the Jordan-Scottie Pippen era. For all the groaning over the Bulls missing out on James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in free agency, they did quite well for themselves anyway.

Rose showed up to training camp openly wondering why he couldn’t be MVP. Then, he backed it up. “It really just came out,” Rose said. “That’s the way I thought at the time. I put a lot of hard work into my game, especially during the summer. ... I dedicated my whole summer to basketball. Even though it was tough, I did it.” Rose was a picture of humility during the news conference. He thanked everyone from the fans to his teammates, coaches and management, and he choked up when he mentioned his mom, Brenda Rose, and older brothers seated in the front row. At one point, he looked at her and paused. “Just thinking how hard she works,” he said. “Those are hard days. My days shouldn’t be hard because I love what I’m doing. That’s playing basketball. You keep me going every day and I love you.” Rose ranked seventh in scoring and 10th in assists, making him the only player this season in the top 10 in both categories. The only other Bull to do so was Jordan in 1988-89, when he led the league in scoring (32.5 points) and finished 10th in assists, according to information provided to the team by the Elias Sports Bureau.
Throw in a 4.1 rebounding average, and Rose joins another elite group. He’s the seventh player in league history to average at least 25 points, 7.5 assists and 4.0 rebounds, along with Jordan, Oscar Robertson, Jerry West, Larry Bird, Wade and James, according to Elias. “We all knew how good he could be,” veteran forward Luol Deng said. “It’s a big surprise for all of us how quick he got there. We knew he was going to get there; we said that from the start. He’s just a hard worker, a humble kid. He’s really out there just to win games.” In the postseason, he’s been just as impressive. He scored 39 and 36 points in the first two playoff games against Indiana. Then he shook off two sub-par performances and a sprained left ankle to score 25 points in Game 5 as the top-seeded Bulls closed out what had been a tight first-round series with a 116-89 victory. They stumbled in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals against Atlanta, losing 103-95. Rose scored 24 points, but he hit just 11 of 27 shots and did not attempt a free throw. He also limped off the court after twisting his left ankle, but expects to be ready for Game 2 on Wednesday.

Barcelona onward to glory by Paul Logothetis Associated Press
Barcelona, Spain — Barcelona advanced to the Champions League final by dominating Real Madrid in a 1-1 tie Tuesday night, winning the semifinal on 3-1 aggregate as Pedro Rodriguez scored off a perfect through pass from Andres Iniesta in the 54th minute. In the fourth match between the rivals in 18 days, Rodriguez gave Barcelona a three-goal lead in the home-and-home, total-goals series. Marcelo scored for Real Madrid in 64th minute off a pass
from Angel Di Maria, whose initial shot bounced back off a post. Marcelo’s was the only shot on goal by the visitors in the entire match. “Football justice was served,” Barcelona midfielder Xavi Hernandez said. “The best team got through.” Seeking its fourth Champions League title and third in six years, Barcelona plays Manchester United or Schalke on May 28 at Wembley. Manchester United takes a 2-0 lead into Wednesday night’s second leg at Old Trafford, and the final could be a rematch of the 2009 championship that Barcelona won 2-0. Before a crowd of 95,701 in
FC Barcelona’s Javier Masherno, right, vies for the ball with Real Madrid’s Emmanuel Adebavor during the semifinal matchup in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday. The game resulted in a 1-1 tie, but Barcelona will advance to the league finals. Emilio Morenatti AP Photo

Europe’s largest stadium, Barcelona again dominated a defensive Madrid, which was without banned coach Jose Mourinho for the match at the Camp Nou Stadium. The Blaugrana had 64 percent possession and completed 631 passes to 261 for Madrid. Barcelona had 11 attempts on goal to just three for Madrid — which didn’t have its first until the 53rd minute. “Another (setback), like always,” Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas said as Barcelona players celebrated. “We’re not going to get upset because it will just be used against us.” Real coach Jose Mourinho, suspended for the game following his ejection in the first leg, faces an uncertain future in the Spanish capital following a disappointing first season that produced just one trophy: the Copa del Rey. Los Blancos trail Barcelona by eight points in the Spanish league with just four games remaining and have been criticized by former Real great Alfredo Di Stefano for their defensive tactics under Mourinho, who won the Champions League with Inter Milan last year and Porto in 2004. Mourinho was not visible at Camp Nou and apparently watched from the hotel where his team was staying. Assistant coach Aitor Karanka insisted there was no communication with Mourinho. “Mourinho is right — after the (last) game he said it was impossible for us to go forward,” said Karanka, who spoke to Mourinho after the whistle. “He said congratulations to everyone. He’s feeling angry about what we’ve seen in the last few games with the referees.”
Don’t worry... it kinda looks like you’re taking notes.

Racquetball is the fastestgrowing sport at UNM. For eight years, the UNM racquetball club team has practiced and played on the top-level courts at Johnson Center. Ray Gomez, who has been on the team for three years, said that the club has expanded. “In my first year, we maybe had eight people, and now we have around 20,” he said. Since the racquetball team is a club sport at the University, like hockey and rugby club teams,
the UNM racquetball club receives little funding. Fundraisers and members’ money support the team. The UNM club is a part of the United States Racquetball Association, which allows the squad to play in national tournaments. Andrew Moser, who is been a member of the club for four years, said that two years ago, the USRA set up a five-year plan to get the sport recognized by the NCAA. “Hopefully within the next three years we will be NCAAsponsored and become a scholarship sport,” he said. “At that point, (college) racquetball can take

things to the next level because right now, we’re very individualistic. Teams are very unique to college.” Racquetball can be played solo or in pairs, but Moser said that at the college-level, they play individually and in nationals. The UNM racquetball team competes against regional teams instead of Mountain West Conference teams because funding is so miniscule, Moser said. He said that UNM plays Utah, Colorado, Colorado State, Arizona, Arizona State and some Texas schools. “We would try and travel a couple times throughout the year and try and play these teams,” Moser said. “Maybe we would meet in Utah and Colorado would meet us there to and play a little tournament. That would be prenationals and help us out with rankings.” This season the UNM racquetball team took 15th place in the national’s tournament in April, but it’s just as much an individual sport. The first-place finisher at the national tournament earns a spot on the U.S. national racquetball team that competes in the Olympics. Gomez said he lives for the sport, but there are others who play strictly for enjoyment. No matter their skill levels, Gomez said old and new club members have developed a tight-knit relationship. “You just come and have fun and try,” he said. “If you like it, learn to love and just keep working at it. We have people who just love to play and they always show up.”
