What would you do to create well-paying jobs that will keep New Mexicans employed in the state? Susana Martinez: Recent reports show that in the past year our state suffered the second largest drop in employment out of the 50 states. Clearly, we do not have a competitive environment for job creation or retention, and bold change is needed. We must reform our regulatory and tax systems to make it easier for businesses to choose New Mexico as their home, rather than burden them with red tape and more taxes. I have laid out a detailed economic recovery plan that has specific provisions to eliminate waste, make New Mexico competitive with other states and countries, encourage the development of our energy sector, and improve our business climate. By changing the direction our state is headed, we will signal to job creators that New Mexico is open for business. Do you support the DREAM Act? Why

ew Mexico will elect its ﬁrst female governor this year. Democrat and Lt. Governor Diane Denish is up against Dona Ana County’s Republican District Attorney Susana Martinez in a heated battle for the state’s top job. In exclusive interviews, the Daily Lobo asked each candidate various questions about jobs for graduates, tuition assistance, positions on immigration, the state’s medical marijuana program and corruption. It’s all up to the voter. Let the games begin.

Diane Denish: My philosophy with any appointment is to pick the most qualified, not the most connected. I would want any regent I appoint to have strong knowledge of the University and a deep personal connection to it. I would also want regents who are focused on the academic and research missions of the school. I believe the key to New Mexico’s future economic success is intimately tied to innovative academic programming and producing spin-off companies incubated at our universities and graduates who are prepared to lead those companies. What would you do to keep students in New Mexico after graduating from college? I have always said one of our state’s best exports is our smart young people. I want to build a New Mexico where our bright college gradu-

Convention draws more than ‘geeky’ crowd by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu

Fourty-two is a special number for those in the know of “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.” The number is the answer to life, the universe, and everything calculated by the fictional earth-sized supercomputer. The 42nd annual Bubonicon will take place August 27-29 at the Albuquerque Grand Airport Hotel, and it will focus on “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy,” so gather your terry towel. Originally, the annual science fiction convention was called New Mexicon until 1971. Co-Con chair Kristen Dorland said the new name got its beginnings from a miscommunication. “(Science fiction writer) Bob Vardeman read a press release stating that the country of Egypt was banning travelers from New Mexico because we have bubonic plague here,” Dor-

land said. “He was so tickled by the fact that we would be banned that he named the convention Bubonicon.” Over the years, the convention has been able to bring in some of the bigger names in science fiction literature, and this year author Peter David and programmer Mario Acevedo will attend. Additionally, the convention hosts a variety of activities that in the past have attracted a “geeky” crowd, Dorland said, but has since grown in diversity over the years. “We get all kinds of people,” she said. “We see a lot of families, and we’re seeing a lot of younger people these days. It seems like we get a lot of people who’ve never been to a science fiction convention.” On Friday night, there will be an auction with proceeds going to Eastern N.M. University’s Williamson Library Collection, Roadrunner Food Bank and Watermelon Mountain Ranch. A portion of the convention’s profit will also go to these charities.

To celebrate the theme, the committee set up a “Vogon Poetry Slam,” costume contest, “(Virgin) Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster Drink Contest” and a screening of the film “Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.” Though the PanGalactic drink is fictitious and consists of components not found on Earth, attendees are invited to concoct something out of their imagination for the judges to test. Bubonicon also offers an exhibit of fantasy art by professionals, amateurs and interested youth. Though the convention no longer accepts mail-in submissions, it will begin taking pieces in person beginning Aug. 27 at 3:30 p.m. The committee encourages images of galactic hitchhiking rats. There is a small registration fee, unless you are attending, as well as a hanging fee. Dorland said the convention is friendlier than most, taking first-time attendees under its wing and showing them a good time. “If they enjoy the idea of science fiction, and that’s anything — storm troopers, ava-

Bathrobes are encouraged.” Memberships for the convention will be sold at the door. It’s $42 for a weekend pass, $15 for Friday only, $25 Saturday only and $15 for Sunday only. Youth (14-17) memberships are $20 for the entire weekend.

No C&J phones make communication tough by Andrew Lyman alyman@unm.edu

Students trying to contact Communications and Journalism faculty using their office telephone may have some trouble. Soon, certain faculty members will no longer have an office telephone number for students to use when contacting them, said John Oetzel, chair of Communications and

Journalism. The plan, Oetzel said, will save the department about $15,000, and students still have other options when contacting professors. “The decision was a department one,” Oetzel said. “Skype or internet is quite doable and some faculty use that already.” While some faculty may not have direct phone numbers, they are still able to use their e-mail accounts, and they will continue to

have regularly held office hours, in addition to personal appointments. Oetzel said this isn’t the first time the C&J department eliminated landlines, and in the past it hasn’t caused major problems, since students still have other options for contacting their instructors. “In our department, we have been doing that for several years. It hasn’t appeared to hinder interaction with students at all,”

From the web In the Aug. 25 article “Lambert back, but under lock, key,” Isaac Avilucea details how infamous UNM women’s soccer player Elizabeth Lambert is returning to regular season play for the Lobos. Readers had this to say: by‘SA007’ “I am glad she was able to return to the team. I’ve read her bio and she seems to be a nice young lady. While I don’t agree with her reactions to what happened on the field, the BYU gals are just as to blame. It will be interesting to see if they instigate a reaction again this year by grabbing shorts and yanking them up…. Two wrongs don’t make a right, but what did BYU expect…. Hope the refs take charge like they are supposed to from here out to prevent this from recurring.” by‘tra6lala’ “Good, she deserves a second chance.” by‘Deutsche Mannschaft’ “Bad. Lambert is a thug. I saw the video clips; she virtually assaulted some of the BYU players. It nauseates me that Krebs and her apologists say she just ‘made a mistake.’ Spilling a bottle of Gatorade or misspelling a word is a mistake. Snapping a player’s neck back by pulling on her hair and throwing her on the ground is assault and battery. If it wasn’t on a soccer pitch, she could have been arrested. Of course, this is to be expected. After all, Krebs has established a policy of just slapping the wrists of athletes – just look at how Coach Locksley was ‘disciplined’ after choking and punching an assistant.” by ‘UNM student’ “It’s newsworthy that Lambert is back on the field, so therefore it is the job of the NEWSpaper to cover it. Without this article people wouldn’t be able to go out and give her support at home games. So be glad the Lobo is covering it. She made a mistake, and will probably have to deal with it, to some extent, for the rest of her life. Maybe it will make other athletes think twice before getting too physical. Don’t try and blame a newspaper and reporters from doing their job.’” Visit DailyLobo.com to join the discussion..

Column

Italy’s economy affects birthrate by Nicole Raz Daily Lobo Guest Columnist Editor’s Note: Lobos Abroad is a regular column written by Daily Lobo staff members studying in a different country this semester. “Ay! Cavalo!” My driver gestures at a lunatic driver by smacking his head with his hand and flinging it out toward the windshield. Between cursing at other drivers and making hand gestures, he tells me that he is Italian but lived in England for many years. Between his English and my limited Italian, we are able to talk about his family and some of Italy’s economic problems. Upon my arrival to Rome, it appeared that all I had imagined seemed true but understated. For instance, the cobblestone streets can easily make a bad first impression: Wearing high heels is “hazardous,” parents have to look for strollers with rubber tires, and car tire maintenance can also be a burden. But each step I take on those cobblestone streets is a step through time. The ancient scenery lining the streets is awe-inspiring; each thing is better than the last. “Mi chiamo Paulo.” My driver picks me up from the airport to take me to the youth hostel. We talk as he weaves in and out of lanes and avoids crashing into Vespas swerving into our lane and then back.

Forcing Islamic women to not wear veils is still oppression Editor, Freedom is the opportunity to decide for you. Choice is the basic building block of capitalism and a democratic system. Americans have the freedom to choose our political representatives and products we consume. In our Constitution, it is written that we have the right to choose religion, political figures and pursuit of happiness. However, these ideals sometimes are not upheld to the high standards we set for ourselves as Americans. As an American, I listened to the stories flooding the news about a law that recently passed through the French senate. The law states that Islamic veils cannot be worn in public. On one hand, lawmakers state the law is in place for safety reasons. The covering of the face makes it easy to escape the law. However, a member of the Cabinet who

Letters approved the bill also states that the veils are symbolic of female oppression and not welcome in France’s democratic society. Now let’s take a closer look at the idea. The Cabinet member wants to free women from oppression by forcing them to abandon sacred practices that have been handed down through generations. It seems like a backward step to the goal of a free world. The whole concept of freedom is to have a choice. This law takes away the Muslim women’s right to choose whether they wish to practice their religion. More and more, laws in Europe have been sprouting up that directly attack the Muslim community. More close to home, in Disneyland’s resort restaurant a hostess was told to go home without pay seven times because she chose to wear an Islamic headscarf. She had been working faithfully and diligently for the company for three years. As a tribute to her culture and sacred holiday Ramadan, she wanted to wear a headscarf in public at all times. Her choice to

get closer to her religion by practicing common traditions was looked down upon by her employer. If someone can wear a crucifix to work, then it is only just she wear her headscarf. It must not be a small world after all. Since 9/11, the Muslims have been the focus of our woes. The reality is that a small group of terrorists should not inform opinion of an entire population of people. Muslims need not be the scapegoat. The only way to attempt unity in our salad bowl society is to respect each other. It is a woman’s right to wear what she feels accurately depicts herself. It is constitutional to support people’s right to worship. It is moral to embrace a different heritage. Freedom is not freedom unless you can choose. Forcing people out of oppression is a sorry excuse to oppress. Thelma Greenfield UNM student

or why not? This is a federal issue that should be addressed by Congress, which has thus far failed miserably at securing our borders. Our state government has only exacerbated a difficult situation with the granting of driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants and perpetuating sanctuary policies. We must have a federal solution to the issues surrounding border security and illegal immigration that are supported by sound policies in our border states. What, if any, immigration legislation would you propose to secure our borders? As the Dona Ana County District Attorney, I have had a firsthand look at the realities of border security. My office prosecutes over 600 cases related to border issues every year and works closely with law enforcement to fight border-related crime. We must reverse the practice of issuing drivers licenses to illegal immigrants, which has resulted in our state being a sanctuary for those who wish to circumvent the legal immigration process. As governor, I will make it a priority to secure our bor-

der and support the prosecution of those who violate our criminal laws. Do you support the current regents system? Why? If not, what would you change? As governor, I will make sure that all of my appointments are for necessary positions and involve highly qualified individuals who share my commitment to higher education. I will end the practice of handing out exempt positions as political favors that has been so prevalent under the Richardson/Denish administration. Regents should be focused on doing what’s right for the institution and its students and faculty. With the right regents in place, we will ensure that higher education thrives in New Mexico. Do you support the state’s medical marijuana program? Why or why not? I do not support distributing marijuana for any purposes, which is in violation of federal law. There are many other treatments for patients in need that do not break federal law.

How would you support students and their tuition struggles? First, I would advocate for a tuition freeze that holds tuition for each student at what they paid their first year. This would ensure that tuition does not increase for students halfway through their four-year academic careers and will allow them to plan accordingly. In addition, I also propose a state income tax credit for tuition and other higher education expenses. Furthermore, we must use technology, such as electronic literature, to offer more choices that will fight rising textbook costs. Finally, we should also ensure that our colleges and universities are operating efficiently, so that taxpayer funds and tuition money is being spent as effectively as possible. Higher education is one of the most important investments we can make, and we must ensure we are maximizing our returns.

Denish from page 1 ates can find opportunity and put down roots here. I have proposed a detail high-tech and renewable energy jobs plan at www.DianeDenish.com, which includes several initiatives to jumpstart our economy and create high-wage jobs. These include: Creating a high-tech development corporation charged with helping high-tech startups incubated at our schools and national labs find the investment and support they need to be successful, targeting state investment money in a clean energy investment pool, and strengthening the connections between New Mexico’s schools and large employers. What actions would you take to lower the high school dropout rate? I have proposed a plan to redesign high school to help engage and challenge our students just as they might be thinking of dropping out. My plan calls for more specialized, hands-on, career-focused learning, so students can see the connections between learning and the careers beyond school. My plan calls for more college prep and dual credit, more vocational options for students who might not be interested in college, and establishing strong connections with outside employers to create a more robust system of high-school internships. The goal is to inspire and challenge young people by showing them a path beyond high school and that the high-school diploma is the first step on a journey to a fulfilling career. What is your stance on medical marijuana? I support medical marijuana. No one with a chronically painful or terminal illness should be denied a treatment option that has

been clinically proven to reduce pain and suffering. Do you support developing clean and renewable energy programs in New Mexico? What would you do to make that happen? I have outlined a detailed proposal to encourage renewable energy production and create clean energy jobs. Here it is: Create a state clean energy investment pool: By linking a portion of severance-tax revenue to incentives and programs for growing the clean-energy economy, we can target state capital to renewable-energy projects and ultimately toward growing new green jobs in New Mexico. Develop a clear-cut plan for moving New Mexico clean energy technology forward: As governor, I will appoint a statewide team of private and public sector experts to develop a roadmap for making New Mexico the leader in clean technology development. This will include planning specific steps we must take over the next decade to establish our leadership and what return we should expect on our investment. Expand tax credits for clean technology companies: Create a new tax credit for equity investments in New Mexico clean-tech companies. Increase the Industry Research and Development Tax Credit to 10 percent for clean technology businesses and offer favorable tax treatment to startup founders to encourage them to stay in New Mexico and invest again. Make State Energy Bills Publicly Available: Taxpayers should know what the state is spending on electric bills. The state should develop a public and easy-to-read monitor that shows state energy consumption in buildings and vehicles from

No Phones from page 1 to be accessible to students, and not having a working number is a hindrance in that regard,” Schneider said. “Right now, I have a math instructor who doesn’t have an office or office phone number, but he went the distance in giving us the math department’s number with instructions that we can leave a message with them.” Other students said the lack of phone numbers didn’t bother them. Senior Claire Armstrong said she generally doesn’t contact her professors by phone, but it might be

convenient for instructors to have a phone in their office. “I prefer to contact them by email anyway,” Armstrong said. “Although I feel like they may like to have an office phone.” Sean Adcox, a junior, said he prefers meeting with his professors face to face, and the C&J department’s decision is compounded by an influx of students on campus. “In the past three semesters, this is the most crowded I’ve seen campus” Adcox said.

month to month. This could be followed up with setting energy-savings goals for each building (or) department. This information can be placed on the Sunshine Portal. Energy & Transportation: Make New Mexico the leader in natural gas and electric vehicle transportation. State government can help New Mexicans be early adopters by developing both natural gas and electric vehicle charging infrastructure. This does not take a major infrastructure development and the transmission lines for both are largely already in place.

Kidneys may fail; friends don’t by Ruben Hamming-Green rhamminggreen@gmail.com

For four years, Alex Garcia has known his kidneys were failing. For the last four months, Garcia’s “part-time job” has been undergoing dialysis three times a week. He has been a master mechanic at the Physical Plant Department for 11 years. While the disease slowly began to consume every aspect of his life, he witnessed a flow of assistance from friends and family who have organized fundraisers generating thousands of dollars to help him pay his medical costs. Anthony Garcia, one of Alex’s friends and colleagues at the PPD, has organized upcoming events to benefit Alex, including a barbecue at UNM on Sept. 2 and a dance at a later date. But the biggest contribution comes from Gary Small, another PPD mechanic, who is giving one of his kidneys to Alex Garcia. Alex Garcia said family members

were first to jump in the donation line, but one by one problems were discovered with each person, and none were eligible donors. “Then this guy slips in through the back door, nonchalant, anonymous, and puts his name on the list,” Alex Garcia said. “He’s a remarkable man, a heart as big as Texas.” Small, who worked with Alex Garcia for 10 years, only asked for one thing — for the procedure to be scheduled on Sept. 22, his birthday. “I thought it would be a nice thing to give something,” Small said. “I thought about it and I said, ‘You know, this guy’s got a family. If I can help him, why not?’” In truth, there’s been no shortage of support for Alex Garica. PPD has generated more than $3,000 to help him cover his medical costs. Anthony Garcia put together a yard sale and set up a number for people to call and make donations. PPD also organized an event at an Applebee’s, where customers could request to donate 15 percent of their purchase to Alex Garcia.

“We became really good friends,” Anthony Garcia said. “We found out October last year his kidneys were starting to fail ... It was pretty devastating.” Since Alex Garcia was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease (PKD), a genetic disorder that leads to renal failure, and then began dialysis, he has had to make some changes to his life. Where he used to play volleyball, now he can only fish, and he can no longer do the work his job requires. Through it all, though, Alex Garcia has no complaints. “People come from far and near, and it’s been a blessing,” he said. “With that many family members and a co-worker to come forth — I ain’t that bad of a guy after all.” After the transplant, Alex Garcia said he hopes to get his life back to normal. “I don’t know if I can work back at the utility plant anymore, but I will seek employment,” he said. “And I’m going start diligently working on my bucket list.”

Justice expects leaks case by Kristen Wyatt Associated Press

DENVER — Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor predicted Thursday that the nation’s high court will be asked again to weigh issues of national security versus free speech because of the leaked classified war documents posted on the WikiLeaks website. Sotomayor told high school and college students at the University of Denver that she couldn’t answer a student question about the security questions and free speech because “that question is very likely to come before me.” The release of the WikiLeaks documents, which included names of Afghans working with American forces, has been blasted by the Pentagon. It said the publication of those documents put lives at risk, while WikiLeaks employees insisted the website provides a public service for whistleblowers. Sotomayor said Thursday that the “incident, and others, are going to provoke legislation that’s already being discussed in Congress, and so some of it is going to come up before

(the Supreme Court).” She added that the balance between national security and free speech is “a constant struggle in this society, between our security needs and our First Amendment rights, and one that has existed throughout our history.” Sotomayor compared the current question to the debate over allowing publication of the Pentagon Papers, a secret Pentagon study about the Vietnam War. The New York Times published those in 1971 after the Supreme Court declined to block their publication over the objections of the Pentagon. “That was not beginning of that question, but an issue that keeps arising from generation to generation, of how far we will permit government restriction on freedom of speech in favor of protection of the country,” Sotomayor said. “There’s no black-andwhite line.” Sotomayor also declined to take a position on Arizona’s illegal immigration law, but said the question of illegal immigration will be decided by legislation, not the courts. “I haven’t really examined the Arizona law in detail ... so I haven’t formed an opinion yet, and I wouldn’t

until I heard the case,” Sotomayor told a Latino boy who asked the question. Sotomayor didn’t predict whether it would end up before the U.S. Supreme Court. Parts of Arizona’s law are pending in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco after the Department of Justice sued. Sotomayor told students that if they were interested in changing society, they need to look to the legislative branch, not the courts. “Waiting for the courts to resolve these issues is not what all of you should be doing,” Sotomayor said, adding that they have to “work hard at either passing laws that you think do the right thing, or changing those laws which you think do the wrong thing.” Sotomayor discussed her personal experiences as a top arbiter of the law, saying she has been “living a fantasy” since being appointed to the court last year but that the job requires sacrifice. She said her greatest sacrifice was “taking this job when I know I’m on the tail end of my mother’s life.” She said her mother was hospitalized two days ago in Florida, “and I’m not there.”

Sotomayor spoke to the students before her appearance at a judicial conference in Colorado Springs this weekend. Some 800 judges are expected at the 10th U.S. Circuit Court conference; Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg planned to

speak there. A student asked about Sotomayor’s experience living in her hometown, the Bronx borough of New York City, then attending Princeton University in New Jersey. The justice joked that students at the Ivy League

school had read books she’d never even heard of and took a swipe at “Ulysses” by James Joyce. “I started to read it, and I almost fell asleep,” Sotomayor said.

Richardson: Cuba prisoner ‘innocent’ by Will Weissert Associated Press

Herrera faces accusations by Barry Massey Associated Press

SANTA FE, N.M. — Current and former employees of Secretary of State Mary Herrera have talked with the FBI about allegations of wrongdoing in the office, their lawyer said Thursday. Former elections bureau director A.J. Salazar and two employees who have been placed on administrative leave by Herrera went to the FBI as whistleblowers, said Rudy Martin, an attorney in Espanola. They were interviewed by federal agents about allegations ranging from possible kickbacks on contracts to office employees campaigning for Herrera on state time, he said. Herrera said the allegations were “blatantly false and ridiculous” and politically motivated. However, she refused further comment after reading a brief statement and walked away Thursday as

reporters asked questions at a news conference, which Herrera had called to announce voter information mailings for the general election. Deputy Secretary of State Don Francisco Trujillo also declined comment. Frank Fisher, an FBI spokesman in Albuquerque, said the agency doesn’t publicly discuss investigations. James Flores, a former police officer who serves as the public information officer for the secretary of state, and Manny Vildasol, the office administrator, have been placed on administrative leave with pay. Herrera said at the news conference she wasn’t involved in their personnel investigations. Martin said both workers were placed on leave as retaliation for speaking to the FBI about problems in the office. He sent a letter Wednesday to the secretary of state warning of a possible lawsuit if there was further retaliation against his clients.

“As you are aware, both gentlemen have a duty to report what they perceive as criminal actions or conduct and not to conclude that the reported matters are in fact criminal,” Martin wrote. Salazar resigned in February, alleging Herrera had violated the state Governmental Conduct Act by having employees solicit “sponsorships or donations” from businesses that contract with the state to support elections training seminars. Salazar also said Herrera had ordered appointive employees to gather signatures for nominating petitions required to file for re-election. Martin said Salazar provided evidence, including possible witnesses and telephone numbers, to investigators for Attorney General Gary King about five months ago. When nothing happened, Salazar went to the FBI and was interviewed last week about his concerns, Martin said.

HAVANA — New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson met with Cuba’s foreign minister and discussed the plight of a U.S. government contractor jailed in Havana for nearly nine months on suspicions of spying, saying Thursday he believes he made progress in what is a “humanitarian case.” Alan P. Gross, a 60-year-old native of Potomac, Maryland, was working for a firm contracted by USAID when he was arrested Dec. 3 and sent to high-security Villa Marista prison. President Raul Castro says Gross was distributing illegal satellite phones, but he has apparently yet to be formally charged with a crime. Richardson came to Cuba for a five-day trade mission to promote exporting New Mexico green chilies, nuts and salsa to the island. He was asked by the Obama White House to press for Gross’ release, though he stressed that he is not an official negotiator, nor did he come with any back-channel messages from Washington.

“I was asked by the Obama administration to raise the Alan Gross case at the highest levels and I’ve done so. I believe I’ve made some inroads,” he told a news conference. Richardson brought up Gross with Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez and his deputy, and said they told him the “case is at a very sensitive investigatory and legal process at this moment.” He wouldn’t say what he meant by inroads, but added, “I think the Cuban government has a better understanding of the personal side of Alan Gross.” The governor said that before coming to Cuba, he met with Gross’ wife and attorney and that “releasing Alan Gross would be a very welcome humanitarian gesture. This is a humanitarian case, not a political case.” “I believe Alan Gross is a good man who may have made some mistakes, but I think he’s innocent,” Richardson said. telecommunications mission and I hope the legal process here finds him able to go home.”

Offense is thinking Green by Nathan Farmer

sports@dailylobo.com Just because Michael Green is a midfielder, doesn’t mean he’s not leading the front lines for the UNM men’s soccer team. Known mainly for his finesse and passing talents, Green will be called upon to score more this season, said UNM men’s head soccer coach Jeremy Fishbein. Fishbein said Green will dictate how successful the Lobos’ campaign is this year. “Green is a big piece of the puzzle to this team,” he said. “He had a great season last year and is only going to improve.” Green was a standout at Strongsville high school in Strongsville, Ohio, and at the club level as well. In high school, Green was a fouryear letterman, a 2007 NSCAA high school All-American and the Ohio Player of the Year. As well as winning Player of the Year, he was selected to be an ESP participant — an honor only given to the top 150 seniors in the country — and was put on the all-star team at the conclusion of the camp. At the club level, Green received the 2007 NSCAA youth All-American award while playing for the Columbus Crew MLS Academy, where he won the Ohio North State Cup four times. He was also ranked as the top 20 recruits in the country by RISE magazine. Green had offers to play at a number of top-ranked Division I schools, but he said something clicked after his visit to UNM. “Once I came on my recruiting visit here, I knew this was the school where I wanted to play,” he said. Green had an immediate impact his freshman year, playing in all 19 of the Lobos’ games and starting eight of them, games during which he tallied two goals and three assists. But during that season Green had some of his career highs and lows. “My freshman year we beat Akron at home, who was the No. 1 team in the nation at the time, and it was a really good feeling,” he said. The next weekend, though, the Lobos traveled to play Washington

and opened an early two-goal lead, with Green scoring the second, but eventually fell to the Huskies in a 3-2 loss. “That weekend was really hard,” Green said. “The team as a whole played bad, especially coming off such a big win the week before.” Green has morphed into an offensive standout at midfield last season, whether it was scoring from long range or setting up teammates with passes for easy goals. His biggest contribution came in a 2-0 victory over Cal State Northridge where he scored both goals. This season, Green will look to fill the offensive void left by departing offensive standouts Justin Davis and Stephen Brown, both of whom combined for 12 goals and 10 assists last season. “Michael has a big challenge this season to improve and become a bigger leader on the team,” Fishbein said. “If he does that, he can have a really good season.” Green said he’s not thinking about it like that. “I don’t really set goals for myself, but we are ready,” he said. “This team has some real mental toughness and good athletic ability. We want to win for the team and for the fans that have always showed incredible support to us. It is always a great feeling playing in front of them.”

Kerr Adams / Daily Lobo B.R. Holbrook leans back before a pass at practice Tuesday. Holbrook will start as quarterback during the Lobos first game at Oregon.

by Tim Mousseau

sports@dailylobo.com No one who followed the UNM football program was doubtful about the decision, but it has officially been announced: B.R. Holbrook will be the Lobosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; starting quarterback when UNM heads to Oregon on Sept. 4. Freshman Tarean Austin will backup Holbrook, but Darian â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stumpâ&#x20AC;? Godfrey remains a strong candidate, said UNM head football coach Mike Locksley. Overall, Locksley said, Holbrookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience â&#x20AC;&#x201D; albeit limited â&#x20AC;&#x201D; pushed him over Godfrey and Austin.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;B.R. has earned the right to be our starting quarterback,â&#x20AC;? Locksley said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Throughout 19 practices, B.R. has been above and beyond the other competitors at the position.â&#x20AC;? Counting last season, Holbrook played in five games, where he backed up former quarterback Donovan Porterie. During the season, Holbrook completed 19-of-34 passes for 170 yards and a touchdown, but he did throw two interceptions and dealt with a bout of mononucleosis, which cost him three games. Now healthy, Holbrook worked on protecting the ball during camp and said he hopes the training

Mel Evans / AP Photo Tiger Woods peers after his putt on the first hole at The Barclays golf tournament Thursday in Paramus, N.J.

by Doug Ferguson Associated Press

PARAMUS, N.J. — Yes, that really was Tiger Woods’ name atop the leaderboard. In his first tournament since his divorce, Woods finally looked like the No. 1 player in the world Thursday at the Barclays when he opened with a 6-under 65, his lowest score of the year, to share the lead with Vaughn Taylor. It was his first time leading after any round on the PGA Tour since the Tour Championship last September. “It’s exciting to hit the ball flush again,” Woods said. “It’s something I’ve been missing all year.” He didn’t miss much at Ridgewood Country Club. Woods hit all but one fairway and putted for birdie on all but two holes. And while he hit his driver only twice, they were two of his best shots of the day — including on the 291-yard fifth hole, where his drive landed pin-high and settled 15 feet away. Was it just a coincidence that his game showed up so soon after his marriage was dissolved? “I can’t really say that’s the case,” he said. “As far as golf, it was nice to put it together.” Woods and Taylor both played in the morning, when the greens were smooth and the conditions were only breezy. They had a one-shot lead over Adam Scott, Brian Gay and Ryan Palmer. Scott played in the afternoon, where a gust of wind played tricks on him at the final hole and led to bogey. Scott endured a long day in the proam Wednesday and didn’t think Ridgewood would serve up a 65 to anyone. “Seeing some good scores this morning made me change my mind,” he said. That one of those scores belonged to Woods was hardly a surprise. “For him to piece things together can’t be too hard,” Scott said. “He’s very good.” The last time Woods’ name was atop the leaderboard after any round of any tournament was when he won the Australian Masters on Nov. 15, less than two weeks after his life caved in on him — the car crash after Thanksgiving night, details of adultery, five months away from the game and a broken marriage, which officially ended Monday. His golf hasn’t been very good either, which is why Woods began the FedEx Cup playoffs 112th out of 125 players who qualified. He was so low down the list that he was first to tee off under a sunny sky at Ridgewood, the first time he’s done that in his PGA Tour career. It worked to his advantage. “With fresh greens, everybody in our group was making putts on the front nine,” Woods said. “You had to get it today.”

And he did. The 65 was his lowest score in 46 rounds, dating to a 62 in the BMW Championship last year. Taylor grinned when asked if he was surprised to see Woods’ name on the leaderboard. “Somewhat, you know?” he said. “It’s good to see him back up top.” With sunshine and a light breeze, conditions were ripe for scoring. Palmer had a chance to join the leaders until a three-putt bogey on the 18th put him at 66. Even though the greens became bumpy in the afternoon after so much foot traffic, the course was soft enough to allow for good scores. There were 14 players who shot 67, including Davis Love III, defending champion Heath Slocum and Stewart Cink. Phil Mickelson, with his ninth chance in the last four months to replace Woods at No. 1 in the world, made only one birdie for a 72. For Woods, the timing could not have been better. Only the top 100 in the FedEx Cup standings advance to the second round of the playoffs next week in the Deutsche Bank Championship. Woods at least needs to make the cut, then finish in the middle of the pack. He had a better solution. “I figure if I win, I should be OK,” Woods said. For one of the few times this year, he gave himself ample reason to believe that. Woods opened with a 3-wood down the middle of the fairway, a pitching wedge to 15 feet below the hole and a birdie putt. More followed, even on the par 5s, which have given Woods fits in recent months. He mostly used his 3-wood off the tee, figuring that was enough to reach the corners without having to take on the tops of trees that line the fairways. Plus, with saturated conditions from rain earlier in the week, tour officials allowed players to lift, clean and place their golf balls in the fairway. “With the ball in hand, it’s much more important to hit the fairways,” Woods said. It was the first time since the 2006 British Open at Royal Liverpool that he hit his 3-wood off the tee on every par 5. The two times he hit the driver turned out to be two of his best shots of the day. After the tee shot on the par-4 fifth — only six players hit that green off the tee — Woods used driver into the wind on the 18th, hitting it so well that he had only a 7-iron into the green. He hit a punch shot to just over 6 feet for a final birdie. “It was just a low, bullet fade right around the corner,” he said. “It was just the shape of the shot, because it was different than most of the 3-woods I played all day. I didn’t hold a single 3-wood. I was turning them over. Now, the shape of the driver in the complete opposite direction ... and I hadn’t hit a driver since the fifth hole.”

transfers to the field. “It is always an honor to be guiding the team forward, and the guys — they have confidence,” Holbrook said. “At the same time, it all rests on your shoulders. You’re the hero when you win and the goat when you lose.” Excelling during the Lobos’ training camp in Ruidoso, Holbrook crisply and coolly delivered balls to receivers. “He has quite a bit of arm talent,” Locksley said. “He can make all the throws, and he is a very accurate passer. B.R. is more athletic than people give him credit for.” More importantly, Locksley said, Holbrook had maybe one interception in 19 practices in scrimmage situations. “The best thing he has going for him is he has a really good understanding of our system,” Locksley said. “B.R., by far, has the best grasp of where to go with the football. He is a guy who has really stepped up from a leadership standpoint.” But that doesn’t mean he will continue to lead the team under center if he doesn’t produce. A number of mistakes, coupled with strong play from the freshmen backups, could lead to Holbrook being replaced. But for now, Holbrook said he is confident in his abilities. “If we play the way we are capable of playing and focus on our little individual assignments, I think we will be alright,” Holbrook said. Until Sept. 4, all Holbrook can do is wait. He said he is well aware of the challenge he and the Lobos face this season, starting with the Ducks, but he is only concerned with the present. “We are playing the reigning Pac 10 champs. You can’t take that lightly,” he said. “But you are always concerned. We are going to be out here doing everything we can to prepare the right way.”

MONACO — Real Madrid, AC Milan and Ajax, who have won 20 European Cups between them, will meet in the group stage of the Champions League. It is the second consecutive season that nine-time champion Madrid and seven-time winner Milan have been drawn together. Auxerre is the fourth team in Group G. “Facing Real Madrid is very evocative — it’s a very stimulating challenge,” AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri said after Thursday’s draw in Monaco. “The San Siro and Santiago Bernabeu will be completely full and it’s sure to be a show. Ajax and Auxerre got through their playoffs brilliantly and are two very worthy opponents. We’re going to have to maintain our concentration and physical condition for all these games. It’s an irontough group.” Defending champion Inter will play Werder Bremen, Tottenham and FC Twente in Group A. Madrid has not won the competition since 2002 and has not been past the quarterfinals since 2004. “It is a very difficult group of course, but very attractive for the fans [because] of all the history with these three clubs,” Madrid director of football Emilio Butragueno said. “It will be very even.” For Jose Mourinho, the draw is an early chance to impress at Madrid after leaving Inter having won the title in May. “We hope that he is the right man to take the team to the title,” Butragueno said. “Maybe [he wanted] a little easier [group]. But, anyway, we have to face this situation. We are Real Madrid and we will try to do our best.” Ajax, which won the last of its four European Cups in 1995, is back in the Champions League for the first time since 2005 after beating Dynamo Kiev in the playoff round. “You want to win every match and when you see AC Milan and Real Madrid in the pool, you know it will be tough,” Ajax coach Martin Jol said.

Another Russian team, Spartak Moscow, has to face Chelsea and Marseille in its Champions League group. It was an intriguing draw for Milan midfielder Clarence Seedorf, a two-time winner with the Serie A side who has also won the competition with Madrid and Ajax. Bayern Munich, last season’s losing finalist, was drawn with AS Roma, FC Basel and Cluj in Group E. Barcelona will be hoping to avoid losing to Rubin Kazan for a second straight season. The 2009 champions were drawn with the Russian club in Group D alongside Panathinaikos and FC Copenhagen. Premier League champion Chelsea will also be traveling to Russia, to face Spartak Moscow. Marseille and newcomer Zilina are also in Group F. Marseille coach Didier Deschamps and Chelsea striker Didier Drogba will both come up against clubs they used to play for. “It’s a good Champions League group, with Chelsea as the team that’s shaping up as the big favorite and the rest of the group is open,” Marseille sporting director Jose Anigo said. “But compared to last season, I feel that we’re better equipped.” Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson will be reunited with Rangers, which he played for in the 1960s. Valencia and Bursaspor of Turkey make up Group C. “[Rangers manager] Walter Smith’s already been on the phone,

talking about tickets for Old Trafford. Like me, he’s really looking forward to our games against each other,” Ferguson said. “It’s a good draw for us. You always look at the traveling side of it and the only one that’s of any great distance is the trip to Turkey.” Arsenal will face former striker Eduardo da Silva when it plays Shakhtar Donetsk, while FC Braga of Portugal and Partizan Belgrade complete Group H. “In Shakhtar, we are playing a team that was UEFA Cup champions a couple of seasons ago, a team that has invested a lot and has made a lot of progress,” Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis said. “[Eduardo] will get an incredibly warm welcome from our fans who love him and wish him nothing but the best ... unless he’s playing against us.” Lyon, the top-seeded team in Group B, was paired with Benfica, Schalke and Hapoel Tel Aviv. Lyon reached the semifinals for the first time last season, but club president Jean-Michel Aulas is wary of the group. “Sometimes draws are more difficult than they seem at first. Benfica eliminated Marseille [in last season’s Europa League] and Schalke made Bayern suffer,” Aulas said. “We will have to be very vigilant. It is a very balanced group and we will need to be at our best to get out of this group.”

Margarito can fight in Texas by Dave Skretta Associated Press

Former welterweight champion Antonio Margarito of Mexico has been approved to fight in Texas, clearing the way for his proposed bout against Manny Pacquiao at Cowboys Stadium this fall. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation received an application from Margarito on Monday and decided Thursday to grant his request. The decision came after Margarito was denied an application to fight in California and had another application tabled in Nevada. Margarito is expected to face Pacquiao for a vacant junior middleweight title Nov. 13. “I want to thank the state of Texas for granting me a boxing license, which enables me to continue my passion for the sport of boxing in the United States,” Margarito said in a statement sent to The Associated Press. “I have dedicated my life to giving the fans of the sport entertainment and excitement. On Nov. 13, this great opportunity will ultimately be fulfilled.” Margarito hasn’t fought in the United States since January 2009, when a plaster-like substance was found in his hand wraps before a fight against Shane Mosley in Los Angeles. Margarito’s license along with that of his former trainer, Javier Capetillo, were revoked for at least one year by the California State Athletic Commission, a decision that was upheld by other states. The “Tijuana Tornado” honored the revocation, even though he denied knowing anything about the illegal hand wraps. He could have fought outside the United States during his yearlong suspension, but didn’t return to the ring until May 8, about 16 months after his fight against Mosley. Moving up to junior middleweight, Margarito coasted to a win over Roberto Garcia in Mexico. It was never a sure thing that Margarito would be licensed in Texas, and promoter Top Rank had discussed contingency plans that included taking the fight to Mexico or Dubai. Officials in Texas examined numerous documents relating to the case, including the initial

and his opulent stadium near Dallas, as well as the state of Texas. Any fight involving Pacquiao means big business for the hosts, including massive crowds and hundreds of thousands of pay-per-view purchases. The pound-for-pound king drew 51,000 fans to face the relatively unknown Joshua Clottey on March 13 in the stadium’s first night of boxing. Fans had been hoping to see Pacquiao face Floyd Mayweather Jr. this year in what could have been the richest fight in the sport’s history. However, Mayweather has refused to a sign a contract to face the popular Filipino champion and Pacquiao was forced to look elsewhere for a fight, finally settling on Margarito — both fighters are promoted by Top Rank.

BASKETBALL

US conﬁdent before world championships by Demetris Nellas Associated Press

ATHENS, Greece— The United States breezed to one last exhibition victory before the start of the world basketball championships, not that coach Mike Krzyzewski seemed to care. He’s just happy that his group brimming with youthful exuberance is ready to play. “The score doesn’t really matter, it was just an exhibition game,” Krzyzewski said after an 87-59 blowout of defending silver medalist Greece on Wednesday. “I’m happy we had the chance to play a great team, in a great atmosphere.” Eric Gordon scored 18 points to pace the Americans, who led from start to finish against a Greece team playing for the first time since a brawl near the end of an exhibition game against Serbia turned the focus of the upcoming world championships away from the court. The incident happened during the Acropolis tournament last week, and officials from the international basketball federation FIBA are still reviewing details. Any sanctions are expected to be announced before the worlds begin Saturday in Turkey. The U.S. team, which is missing many of the stars that helped win Olympic gold two years ago, used superior quickness to disrupt Greece’s ball movement and clog passing lanes. Greece wound up turning the ball over 24 times and was outrebounded 53-25, including 30-7 in the second half, when the game was largely decided. The U.S. led 22-14 after the first quarter and still hung onto a 42-32 halftime lead, before sealing the victory with a 28-12 run spanning the third quarter. The crowd, which was never to boisterous to begin with, was mostly silenced, and even the Greek basketball online sites

blogged less about the game and more about Khloe Kardashian, who is married to Lamar Odom and attended the game. Greece figured to have a major size advantage, especially considering the U.S. team doesn’t have a true center on its roster, but even that was negated when 6-foot-11 Yannis Bouroussis and 6-10 Sofoklis Schortsanitis sat out the game with injuries. Schortsanitis hurt his foot during warm-ups and was sent for an MRI exam.

The smaller Americans took advantage, even with Tyson Chandler in foul trouble. Kevin Love played well in the second half and finished with eight points and a team-high 13 rebounds. In addition to Gordon, Love and Odom, the final 12-man roster for the U.S. includes: Kevin Durant, Derrick Rose, Rudy Gay, Chauncey Billups, Danny Granger, Russell Westbrook, Stephen Curry and Andre Iguodala.
