Following an appeal of the city’s approval of building renovations to the rundown Vagabond Inn near south campus, plans for development have stalled. The project, which was proposed by developer Lance Sigmon in a public meeting in May, aimed to convert Vagabond Inn into another apartment complex. But the University administration and residents of Clayton Heights-Lomas del Cielo, a neighborhood near Lobo Village, opposed the renovations. After the project was approved by Albuquerque’s Environmental Planning Commission (EPC) during that meeting, the University and the Clayton Heights-Lomas del Cielo Neighborhood Association filed an appeal with Albuquerque City Council. “In a one-mile radius, we have 2,000 residents,” neighborhood association president Lee Graham said. “We don’t need any more high-density residential units.” Instead of more residents, the neighborhood needs nearby commercial spaces, Graham said. “We have three restaurants and a gas station, and that’s all our businesses in the area,” he said. The nearest grocery store is oneand-a-half miles away, and the nearest large-purchase store, Walmart, is on San Mateo, he said. A shopping center, Graham said, would make the area more convenient for residents, especially students. In addition, Graham estimates that 56,000 people drive by the neighborhood regularly, so erecting an industrial complex would also make it accessible for them. Graham said that in an effort to compromise, the neighborhood association suggested the space could be used for senior housing, but Sigmon refused because senior housing would require the installation of handicapaccessible facilities, which would be expensive. Graham said that although Sigmon did not include important aspects of development, such as landscaping, parking and bus stop plans, in his proposal, the EPC decided the project met minimum requirements and approved it. “The EPC has harshly examined people in opposition,” Graham said. “In the end, the developer didn’t really go out of the way to give a presentation, but met minimal requirements to pass it through.”

Honors College gets first dean Catherine Krause appointed as interim dean until national search concludes by Mikayla Griego news@dailylobo.com

The provost appointed the first dean for the University’s new Honors College. On Aug. 15, UNM Provost Chaouki Abdallah appointed UNM economics professor Catherine Krause as interim dean of the Honors College until the University completes a national search for the position. Krause is also the dean of University College. In fall 2010, the Honors College Task Force looked to convert the University Honors Program into a college. Now, the University is in the process of opening a new Honors College, which aims to keep honors students in honors classes while in a degree-granting college. “Dr. Krause’s name came up as a potential candidate for the position and I was pleased that she accepted to help in that capacity,” Abdallah said. “As we moved to implement the plan for the Honors College as a separate entity from University College, it was logical to ask Dr. Krause to step in as the dean for Honors College while we conduct a national search for the position.” Abdallah said he chose Krause for the position because he was familiar with her work in University College, and her research and academic

credentials. He said Krause has been working closely with Honors Program faculty members throughout the past year, and has contributed a lot of time and effort to the position. “I have been very pleased with her performance and level of contributions to student retention and student success,” Abdallah said. “In my judgment, Dr. Krause has the temper, the values and the skills to lead the Honors College.” Krause joined UNM in 1996 as an economics professor and has conducted research in areas such as public economics, economics behavior of children and economics of families. During the past 16 years, Krause has been an active faculty member, participating in economic research, assisting University College and teaching. Krause said her priority as interim dean is integrating the core curriculum into honors classes, such as honors philosophy, in order to provide students with an opportunity to graduate on

Catherine Krause time with a major in honors and a minor in an area of the student’s interest. Krause said she is concerned with the success of students who take honors classes because in the past, students enrolled in the Honors Program have often had delayed graduation rates due to the workload of extra honors courses. The six-year graduation rate for UNM students is about 44 percent. Krause said she also hopes to hire new faculty members to fill the Honors College now that the college is its own entity.

Following the success of a project last year, the city of Santa Fe once again wants UNM graduate student input on road improvements. UNM assistant professor and project supervisor Moises Gonzales said the city of Santa Fe requested UNM student involvement on a new road improvement project because of the students’ professionalism during last year’s project. In fall 2011, a team of graduate students who enrolled in an advanced studio planning capstone course suggested site improvements in the Airport Road corridor, an area in Santa Fe that has had an increase in immigrant residential units and Latino businesses from Mexico. For the project, instructors worked with students to analyze the demographics of the corridor and plan appropriate improvements for the space. Gonzales said the neighborhood lacked sufficient sidewalk space and road signs, needed to become more pedestrian-friendly and was separated by six-lane roads that took up more space than necessary. He said the team recommended adding new road signs and a more efficient road plan that included intersections to allow pedestrians to cross the road safely by converting some of the six-lane roads into smaller two-lane roads with sidestreet parking, trees and wide sidewalks. Gonzales said the project was a strategic effort for Santa Fe to incorporate big businesses and local businesses in the same area in order to economically develop the district. He said that by improving the corridor, the district can develop into an integral part of Santa Fe. “Latino transitional neighborhoods are often seen as transitional; that they’re not necessarily secure,” he said. “I think what was great about this plan was how we were able to provide … a vision for this community.” The team presented its plan at a community meeting where it was approved by city staff members. Gonzales said the project cost about $5,000 and was funded by the city of Santa Fe. He said although students were not paid, the team was reimbursed for travel and other expenses related to the project.

“It was a great opportunity for studio students to get real planning experience, and the city of Santa Fe was able to offset our costs, so it was a win-win situation,” he said. This year, a team of students was asked to plan improvements for the St. Michael’s corridor, another area in Santa Fe in need of road improvements. The team, which is co-instructed by regional planning assistant professor Tim Imeokparia, aims to alter the road design of the area and include additional housing along the street, which will establish a tighter connection between the community and businesses. “We’re trying to create how this active street could actually connect with Santa Fe College, and in that, how this district could emerge as a new, young, professional district,” Gonzales said. The new project is in its early stages, and Gonzales and Imeokparia are starting to introduce it to their students. Gonzales said that by the end of the semester, they expect to develop new zoning

regulations for the area, and that he is excited to work with students again. “It’s really exciting as an instructor in the second year of our planning program to see the growth of our students,” he said.

Putin crane stunt lampooned by Lynn Berry

The Associated Press VLADIVOSTOK, Russia — President Vladimir Putin struck back Sunday at the Russians who ridiculed his effort to lead young endangered Siberian cranes in flight. Like the youthful protesters on the streets of Moscow, some of the endangered birds refused to follow Putin as he took off in a motorized hang glider. “It’s true that not all flew right away, but the ones that didn’t fly were the weak cranes,� Putin said.

Development

His barb, which drew a burst of applause, came as he wrapped up the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation summit and provided some light relief after days of talks on free trade, food security and other serious issues. Putin went on to spin a parable of sorts that made clear he was comparing the wayward birds to the discontented Russians who had turned out in the tens of thousands this past winter to protest his 12-year rule. The performance was a way for Putin to play up his role as host of the summit, which Russia used to showcase the potential of its

resource-rich east, and for him to demonstrate his ability to put the opposition in its place. On his way to Vladivostok for the summit, Putin stopped off at a Siberian ornithological research center to participate in a project to teach cranes raised in captivity to follow an aircraft so they can be led on their southern migration to Central Asia. Dressed in a billowing white costume meant to imitate an adult crane, Putin made two flights in the open hang glider with a pilot sitting behind him. On the first

rezoning request because the applicant had not adequately demonstrated that the proposed use would be better for the area,� he said. Murphy said that with the recent developments near south campus, including Lobo Village, Broadstone Apartments and Dion’s Pizza, UNM’s Campus Master Plan requires more commercial spaces and athletic facilities in the area. He said the University owns two vacant lots on opposite sides of Vagabond Inn, which would be ideal places for a commercial center. He said that converting the inn into a residential area between the two lots would make it hard for the University to start planning development. “Our concern (is) that the proposed use would in fact be detrimental to implementation of the South Campus Master Plan and to recent private developments and investments in the area,� Murphy said. Plans for the lots include community retail stores, such as a grocery store, restaurants and a fitness center. Murphy said the University planned to develop the area for a

Despite attempts to contact Sigmon, he could not be reached for comment. The City Council required the neighborhood association and UNM to get signatures from at least 20 percent of residents and businesses in the neighborhood for their appeal. Graham said only 13 of the 6,000 neighborhood association members approved the project and almost all of the community members opposed the renovation. The City Council formally vetoed the EPC’s decision in a meeting held Aug. 20. Graham said that even if the renovations were approved, the project would have cost millions of dollars to replace stripped electrical wiring. “It requires a significant amount of funds just for basic repair,� he said. UNM Director of Real Estate Kim Murphy said that although the University is not against the renovation of the inn, it is against this particular proposal because the developer failed to provide sufficient information about the project. “The University opposed the

number of years, but that he is not certain when development will start or how much it will cost. He said any plan regarding the commercial center must undergo an evaluation process and be approved by the Board of Regents. But Murphy said businesses and residents are already enthusiastic about a shopping center opening near south campus. “Many folks who use south campus facilities, including students, staff and visitors ‌ see a need for commercial goods and services in the area, since so few exist today to serve this population,â€? he said. Both Graham and Murphy agree that the Vagabond Inn project will definitely not happen in the future. Despite uncertainty about UNM’s planned shopping center project, Graham said that the neighborhood association will support the University and that he hopes the University will begin developing the area soon. “It’s hard to say right now, but I hope it comes in perhaps sooner than later,â€? he said.

EDITORIAL BOARD

By “UNM Alumnus” “The results of UNM’s strategic misdirection and misplaced priorities finally come in. And the results are even worse than the lowered expectations of many UNM observers. If anyone wants to debate the results of the past few years at UNM, these results render debate unnecessary. The saddest part of these results is that some know that UNM is better than this in many areas; others know that UNM can be better in some areas; worst, others know that UNM was far better in certain areas in the past. The trouble is that UNM is currently meandering aimlessly. The institution has been in constant damage control for the past half decade. The Princeton Guides, US News & World Report, Chronicle of Higher Learning, accreditation boards and organizations: concern for prepping the institution for these publications and organizations, and their industry-standard appraisals (fair or not), cannot exist in a UNM that has been putting out PR fires nonstop for years. The good news is that some, though not all, of the issues specified in this report could have, with determined efforts, a rather quick fix. Others, like compensation of faculty, could take longer given the characteristics of the state.

What I and other very concerned parties have not seen — and the new leadership needs a fair chance to get up and running — is any type of recognition of the severity of what has happened to UNM, how some of what has happened may not be reparable in the short-term and how some damage could be permanent. Then, once the profundity of such problems has found recognition, what would still be missing is the strategy to fix these problems. Once UNM really decides to work on these issues — and in doing so in the short term, clear the layer of dust off of the parts of the school that still are excellent — the institution must publicly embark on a process of demonstrating its commitment to fixing its problems. Another problem I have witnessed at UNM — and this is typical of many trouble-laden institutions worried for their reputation — is a desire to fix things in secret out of a misplaced fear that no one can see the problems (when in fact the problems are in plain view for all). UNM has ambitious recruitment goals for out-of-state students. I have volunteered to recruit students on UNM’s behalf out-of-state. How can a person like me, in good conscience, ask a family to shoulder a more than $60,000 expense in out-of-state tuition to attend UNM, knowing full well the antics taking place on campus? UNM’s leadership had better wake up to the fact that events on campus cannot be concealed from the rest of the world indefinitely, and that alumni are walking away from efforts to help UNM — help which UNM often rebuffs in any event. I have written a similar message in these forums before. I will continue to write out of a

UNM Conservative Republicans Club is hosting the forum “Local Candidates, National Issues” on Wednesday from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in the SUB, rooms Acoma A and B. Candidates are Elisabeth Keen, State Representative; Chris Ocksrider, Public Regulation Commission; and David Standridge, District Court. They are qualified, capable and articulate. Keen’s focus is on education and jobs, and, as a former critical-charge nurse, she does a mean riff on Obamacare. Ocksrider, a practicing attorney, pledges to address diligently and impartially consumer

protection, economic development and affordable energy. Standridge, a former student-body president at UNM and head of his own law firm, writes on reforming family court and on America’s founding principles at StandridgeForJudge.com/ legal-ease-blog.html. We know of no other forum, or even single candidate, coming to UNM. Yes, these are Republicans, regarded dismissively or with disdain by many of the professoriate. That is reason enough to attend. Ask your tough questions. You needn’t follow your peers, nor forever vote as did your grandfather. Weigh the arguments and think for yourself. That is the way of the intellectually mature university student. Donald Gluck UNM student

great concern for UNM as an institution in New Mexico, out of concern for its students and their prospects, out of concern for economic development in New Mexico and out of concern for the many dedicated and resourcestrapped faculty and staff who, without question, go to work every day and give their all for the institution.” By “GOTB” “The great education that UNM offers is overshadowed by the state’s propensity for emotional issues in preference over a solid foundation. Spending the majority of the state funds on Medicaid leaves little for building a strong foundation. A focus on multiculturalism rather than on quality education, whether perceived or real, detracts from the educational mission. Putting an accent on a losing football team and antics like minority events in a state where we have a minority majority gives an out-of-touch persona to UNM. People don’t want to send their kids to a school that thrives on untruths and the past.” By “Damian” “This shows a small lack of basic economics. The author should have included the total state revenue. The tuition, fees, salaries are all naturally lower in one of the poorest states in the union, there may simply not be enough revenue to afford these higher costs. If the state makes less money as a whole, it can’t afford to pay for the nice amenities found in richer states. As for the graduation rates, that may be a different story.”

attempt, only one of the young cranes followed him up, which Putin said was because a high tail wind had caused the hang glider to accelerate too fast. On the second attempt, five birds followed Putin, but only two stuck with him for the full 15minute flight. Putin’s flight, given many minutes of airtime on Russian television, provoked an array of contemptuous jokes on the Internet, one of the most popular being: “So Putin is off to wintering with cranes. Does this mean he’s not going to be back before spring?” Like a straight man feeding Putin a line, a Russian journalist on Sunday asked about an opposition figure’s comment that only

63 percent of cranes support the Russian president, while the rest prefer to fly south or build nests on city squares and boulevards. Putin won a third term in March with 63 percent of the vote. Some Russians, frustrated by his suffocation of political freedoms, have decided to leave the country and others have dedicated themselves to the protests, often held on squares and boulevards. Putin called for applause for the question and took obvious pleasure in answering it. “There are of course birds in the flock who just don’t fly, and they prefer to build nests separated from the rest,” Putin said. “But what can you do. That’s a different problem. Even if they are not

members of the flock they are members of our population and we have to treat them with care, when possible.” Since returning to the presidency after four years as prime minister, Putin has tightened the screws on the opposition. New repressive laws have been passed to deter people from taking part in unauthorized protests, opposition leaders have been subject to searches and criminal investigations, and three members of a feminist punk band have been sentenced to three years in prison for an anti-Putin prank in Moscow’s main cathedral. The next opposition protest in Moscow is planned for next Saturday.

Winning streak stretches on by J.R. Oppenheim

defeated Georgia Southern 3-2, Portland 3-0 and UC SantaBarbara 3-2 to win the Lobo Invitational

If the young players of the UNM volleyball team haven’t turned heads yet, they probably will now. The youthful Lobos, with just one senior and four juniors, are 10-1 on the season following another strong tournament performance. UNM won its home Sheraton Airport/Comcast Lobo Invitational, defeating Georgia Southern 3-2, Portland 3-0 and UC Santa Barbara 3-2 over the weekend. After winning 10 of its first 11 matches, the team is off to its best start since 1989. That year, UNM opened 12-1. The 2012 Lobos are also on a nine-match winning streak. “How we played this weekend and how we are getting better, it’s awesome,” sophomore middle blocker Elsa Krieg said. “We’ve been increasing our level of play every weekend, and playing bigger and better teams each weekend is what helped us.” UNM head coach Jeff Nelson hit a milestone during the tournament. Friday’s win over Georgia Southern was Nelson’s 100th win as head coach. Nelson is the second winningest coach in Lobo history. He has a 10256 record during his six-year tenure as head coach; he is 344-202 for his career. Only former UNM head coach Laurel Brassey Iversen, who was in charge from 1983-2000, has more wins as a Lobo volleyball coach with a 280193 career record. “The girls just said, ’98 more.’ I only need about 50 for 400 (career wins), so let’s shoot for that first,” Nelson said. “Let’s take them one at a time.” Sophomore Chantale Riddle was named the tournament’s MVP, her second such honor of the season. Krieg and junior outside hitter Ashley Newman were named to the alltournament team. UNM’s most impressive match came in Saturday’s finale against UC Santa Barbara, a team considered by many to be a traditional powerhouse in volleyball. The Lobos came out strong in the first two sets, winning 25-16 and 25-21 heading into the 10minute intermission. The Lobos looked sluggish coming out of the locker room, and Santa Barbara took advantage of it. The Gauchos jumped out to early leads in Sets 3 and 4. Despite late runs by UNM in both sets, Santa Barbara forced a deciding fifth set with 25-22 and 25-18 set wins. The fifth set started with two UNM kills from junior middle blocker Lexi Ross and Newman. UCSB tied the set at 2 with the next two points, but a Gaucho serve in the net gave the Lobos the advantage again. UNM never let that lead go again, winning the fifth set 15-9. The Lobos

Ruby Santos / Daily Lobo Redshirt sophomore Chantale Riddle spikes the ball against UC-Santa Barbara on Saturday. The Lobos won their third tournament of the season, beating the Gauchos 3-2. won seven of the last nine points for the victory. “Dropping those third and fourth games was tough,” Krieg said, “but the way we came back and battled back showed that we work hard and have a lot of heart.” Riddle led the way against UCSB with 19 kills, 11 digs and eight blocks. Newman added 12 kills, and Krieg recorded eight kills and seven blocks. Three other players had doubledigit digs, led by junior libero Miquella Lovato with 17. Junior outside hitter Lena Skipper added 11 digs with eight kills, while senior setter Jordan Russell had 10 digs with 26 assists. UNM faced a strong hitting attack from UCSB. Leah Sully had 26 kills, while Britton Taylor and Jenna Wilson each had 12. Sully dominated late in the match, recording 18 kills in the last three sets. “She definitely brought a force at the net; it was good for our block to see something like that,” Newman said. “We’re going to see that in conference for sure. It was good to see it now so we can prepare for it.”

In UNM’s first competition against Georgia Southern on Friday, the match went five sets and had 37 ties and 17 lead changes. UNM won by the set scores of 23-25, 25-15, 32-33, 22-25 and 15-7. Riddle and freshman outside hitter Alijah Gunsaulus had a huge match against Georgia Southern. Riddle had 20 kills, 12 digs and five blocks, while Gunsaulus added 13 kills and 16 digs. Ross and Krieg made six and five blocks, respectively. The Lobos’ Saturday match with Portland was close as well, despite the three-set sweep (25-23, 25-18, 27-25). That match featured 21 ties and 12 lead changes, and neither team led by more than two points through the first set and most of the second set. Against Portland, Riddle led the team again with 12 kills and five blocks. Newman added nine kills. Ross had four ace serves. “Really, our theme this year is stay calm and keep working hard and take these matches one at a time because we’re so young,” Nelson said. “But to be 10-1 is amazing.”

Austin, Texas Talk about adding insult to injury. The Lobos were crushed 45-0 at Texas and lost starting senior quarterback B.R. Holbrook after he went down in the second quarter. UNM went to halftime down only 17-0 to the Longhorns. In the third quarter it was a different story, as Texas pushed the lead to 31-0 to end any hopes of a Lobo comeback. After having no turnovers in

the opening game against Southern, UNM had four against Texas, with three fumbles and one interception.

Women’s soccer

Athens, Ga. The UNM women’s soccer team earned its third straight victory by defeating the University of Georgia 2-0 on Friday. UNM senior Rachel Montoya scored both goals, the first in the 6th minute and the second in the 81st minute.

Gainesville, Fla. The Lobos saw their threegame winning streak come to an end with a 3-2 loss to Florida University on Sunday. The game was tied 2-2 when Gator Holly King headed the game-winner past Lobo goalie Kelli Cornell in the 66th minute. UNM (3-4-1) now returns to Albuquerque for its second home game of the season, against NMSU on Sept. 16.

Rogers from page 12 off the rust. “I think it was all right, but I think the team gave me a boost, and it helped me to just play calm,� Rogers said. “I didn’t have to do anything. All I had to do was relax. It was simple. It’s my first game back, so I just have to get a feel of the game.�

Fishbein has said repeatedly that Rogers is one of the hardest players to handle on the team, and Rogers said he knows that when he gets the ball, he can score at any time. “I’m a type of player that wants to take on people and create something. I don’t want

to make things simple. I want to make something happen,� Rogers said. “That’s the type of player I am, and I’m always hungry to do something, but my teammates encourage me to do all these things, so it’s good to know they always have my back.�

Cubs win, errors sink Pirates by Will Graves

The Associated Press PITTSBURGH — Clint Hurdle is rarely at a loss for words. Yet even the normally chatty Pittsburgh Pirates manager had problems describing what happened in a gaffe-filled 12-2 loss to the Chicago Cubs on Friday night. Pittsburgh committed seven errors during the franchise’s worst defensive game in more than a quarter-century to blunt its push for a playoff spot. “I’ve never been part of a game with seven errors, that’s a new one,� Hurdle said. “There’s nobody in there that’s not embarrassed to some degree.� Rookie outfielder Starling Marte and rookie second baseman Brock Holt committed two errors each while catcher Rod Barajas, first baseman Gaby Sanchez and shortstop Josh Harrison also botched makeable plays. Pittsburgh starter A.J. Burnett had been lights out against the Cubs during his career. He came in 6-0 lifetime against Chicago and hadn’t even given up a run to the woeful Cubs in two starts with Pittsburgh this season. All the history didn’t matter, however, on a night the Pirates provided Chicago with extra out after extra out. Burnett (15-6) allowed seven runs — three earned — and eight hits

in five innings. He struck out four and walked one. Chicago’s Travis Wood had no such issues. The left-hander won for the first time in more than two months as the Cubs snapped a six-game losing streak. Playing meaningful September baseball for the first time in 20 years, Pittsburgh hardly looked like a playoff team. “Our worst game of the season,� said Hurdle, who was ejected in the sixth inning. “We stunk tonight. There’s always a sense of pride you take out on the field to play your best every night you go out there. Sometimes your best stinks. That’s where we were tonight.� Starlin Castro had three hits, including the 500th of his career, and drove in four runs for the Cubs. Alfonso Soriano added three hits and three RBIs as Chicago took full advantage Pittsburgh’s charitable defense. The Pirates had not made seven errors in a game since 1985 and finished one shy of the club record set in 1939. It was the first seven-error game in the majors since Atlanta in a 2004 loss to Colorado. Pittsburgh’s problems started early. Chicago took a 1-0 lead in the first thanks in part to an error by Holt. Things quickly got worse. Chicago made it 4-0 in the third with plenty of assistance from Marte. One of the franchise’s most promising

prospects, Marte mishandled a single by Soriano with one on and two outs. The ball caromed off his glove away from him and in his haste to recover, Marte threw wildly in the vicinity of third base. The ball sailed all the way to the backstop, allowing Anthony Rizzo and Soriano to move into scoring position. Moments later Marte was in trouble again when he booted a sharply hit ball by Castro. Rizzo and Soriano scored easily and Castro — who advanced to second on the error — scored on Steve Clevenger’s single. Hurdle tried to give his team some life, getting thrown out for arguing a close play at third base in which umpire Gary Darling ruled Chicago’s Brett Jackson beat Harrison’s throw on a fielders’ choice. Instead of responding, the Pirates collapsed as the Cubs eventually went up by a dozen. At one point a fan in an exasperated PNC Park crowd started yelling “Error! Error!� at the official scorer on a cleanly hit single by Chicago’s Tony Campana in the eighth. Instead of history, the Pirates finished with only seven errors, the most since an 8-4 loss to St. Louis on Sept. 16, 1985. “We have a very resilient team, but at the same time when you go through that, it stings,� Hurdle said.

New Mexico Daily Lobo

Weekly Horoscopes by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu

Fiddle about Capricorn—The new moon is looming in the distance, the next clean slate. To prepare for starting anew, you’ll want to spend some time re-evaluating your lifestyle in terms of how well it serves your needs and goals. Any area of your life that is feeling blocked will benefit from analyzing the situation from all angles, and don’t rule anything out just because you don’t want to believe it’s possible. Aquarius—Waves of agitation have been testing the strength of your tolerance for humanity. You’re tempted to look within for the problem, which will result in some self-loathing and sequestering yourself until it’s sorted out. Realize there is no problem. It’s an emotionally rough time, so take it easy on yourself and keep your mind on simple tasks. Clearing clutter may prove to be an effective cathartic method this week. Pisces—Anticipating how cold a pool is going to be before you dive in significantly reduces your chances of ever getting in. You’re facing a similar situation that requires you to face facts, ending the week with a confrontation between you and someone else or a bad habit of yours. In either case, you’ll want to run and return when circumstances no longer require you to make the change. Deal with it now and you’ll thank yourself later. Aries—Like forcing repelling magnets to come together, you’ve been employing sheer willpower to make your dreams come true. Come off your throne, Old King Cole, because unless you have highly developed psychic ability, you cannot forcibly mold circumstances to your liking. It’s time to develop other tactics that employ your sharp mind, such as stress management and negotiation.

Taurus—You bulls are notorious for your mighty appetite, but lately your appetite has probably been irregular, to say the least. This is likely connected to your taking on more responsibility, or putting pressure on yourself to perform at the top of your game. To make this period pleasurable and efficient, find the foods that best serve your purposes. “You are what you eat” did not become a worn phrase for lack of meaning. Gemini—This is a good time to follow up on any connections you’ve made in the past few weeks so you’ll have a good rapport in time for the new moon at the end of the week. Keep in mind, these people have potential to be influential in unexpected ways, possibly meeting needs you have yet to recognize. You might try connecting with people on a mass scale, employing social media or taking advantage of public speaking opportunities. Cancer—Don’t kick yourself for not following up with promising leads this week, as it’s your intuition picking up on nasty vibes that lie ahead on these paths. The simple things in life are more precious to you, and you’ll find it difficult setting your mind to a task that takes you away from home. Perhaps it’s time to find a career that better suits your needs, something that gives you time to enjoy in the domestic sphere. Leo—You know yourself well enough to see that you’ve been reveling in the drama of a hectic life. People don’t mind your flamboyance until times like this week, when you’ll be so wrapped up in your own schedule, you fail to recognize the needs of others. Spend time this week honestly evaluating how well-balanced your relationships are, and make the right moves to patch up any dysfunction.

Virgo—You are right in your element these days, which has made you a bit too comfortable on your high horse, looking down upon other zodiac signs struggling to meet Virgoan expectations. Keep your sharp tongue in check and the week should go by swimmingly. It’s a good time to develop patience for mistakes, as even you perfectionist Virgos will suffer momentary lapses in performance. Libra—Working the crowds is your forte these days, as your ability to communicate with clarity and concision is heightened. Take advantage over the next couple of weeks, but before you make any big moves in a fresh direction, prepare your environment. Your eye for aesthetics meets the organizational Virgo influence this week, so home decorating or construction projects are some mines worth exploring. Scorpio—The gears have been turning, slowly but surely, and by the end of this week you’ll get a clear idea of what the point is to all of this recent angst you’ve indulged in. Frustrating as it is, you’ll have to face the fact there is no one answer. With that in mind, tailor a lifestyle you can sustain that reflects your individual taste and goals. Try to make yourself the primary consideration, rather than your peers. Sagittarius—Some lengthy alone time might be the best medicine for you this week, although your taste for the stuff is keeping you from taking it. Ask yourself what it is that drives you to surround yourself with people: What is it about yourself or your life that you are uncomfortable being alone with? It isn’t as gloomy as it sounds, and as soon as you recognize and embrace this part of yourself, you’ll feel like yourself again.

Lobos weather storm to win home game against UAB UNM defeats No. 25 ranked University of Alabama-Birmingham

Rogers returns, shoots goal that wins 2-0 match by Thomas Romero-Salas sports@dailylobo.com

UNM men’s soccer player James Rogers didn’t expect to wait 30 extra minutes before his 2012 debut against University of Alabama-Birmingham on Friday. Officials called a 30-minute lightning delay before the start of the contest, but it was worth the wait; in his first game back, he played 76 minutes, shot five times with three shots on goal and scored in the 79th minute against the Blazers to essentially end the game. The goal came after junior Michael Calderon sent a shot flying from the edge of the box to the goal. UAB goalie Raphael Ville deflected the ball straight to Rogers for his first goal of the season, putting the Lobos 2-0 over the Blazers. UNM went on to win 2-0 over UAB. For Rogers it was more than a goal. It signaled his return to action from a three-game NCAA suspension resulting from last season’s 16-game College Cup Round against the University of South Florida. The Lobos lost to the Bulls in a shootout, and after the contest Rogers knocked over an official while being restrained and earned a red card for “assault on a referee,” resulting in a three-game suspension for the start of this season. The 5-foot 8-inch Rogers said he’s just happy to be back on the team and playing soccer again. “It felt really good to be back with my teammates. It’s been a long time that I’ve been waiting for this occasion to come,” Rogers said. UNM head coach Jeremy Fishbein said he’s seen a change in Rogers’ attitude since last season’s incident. “James showed some maturity. He’s a much more mature player than he was last year,” Fishbein said after Friday’s win. “I think he’s gotten a better handle on his emotions, and he’s not trying to do it all by himself. I thought when we played him underneath, he was very Juan Labreche / Daily Lobo good; he’s just a handful because he’s so explosive.” Rogers said he thought his performance was decent Senior Travis Campbell battles against a University of Alabama-Birmingham player on Friday. The soccer team and that he could use a couple more matches to shake defeated UAB 2-0 for its first home victory of the season.

The UNM men’s soccer team earned its first home victory of the season on Friday. UNM shot out the University of Alabama-Birmingham 2-0, but before play could begin, officials issued a 30-minute lightning delay, and during the first half, the Lobos and Blazers played through wind and rain. Head coach Jeremy Fishbein said the inclement weather factored into what was a sloppy first half for UNM. “No pun intended, we weathered the storm, and the guys dealt with the elements. Once we kind of settled down and started to connect our passes, it really wasn’t much of a game,” Fishbein said. “It would have been nice to score some more goals, but I was real happy. We needed this game; we needed this result.” Many of the 2,975 fans left the game after the windy and rainy first half and missed the Lobodominated second half, in which UNM outshot UAB 17-11. The first goal of the game came from University of Central Floridatransfer Nik Robson in the 57th minute. After a couple of precise touch passes, Robson shot the ball from the top of the box and nailed his first score of the season into the top left of the goal.

“We needed this game, we needed this result.” ~Jeremy Fishbein head coach “I didn’t have time to really think; I had to hit into the corner, and it went into the corner as far as it could,” Robson said. Sophomore James Rogers scored the second goal in the 79th minute, sealing the game. It was the first action he saw this year, after returning from a three-game NCAA suspension, which he received for assaulting an official. Rogers scored after junior Michael Calderon set off a shot from the edge of the box and UAB goalie Raphael Ville made his fourth save, but the rebound went straight to Rogers for an easy put in. This is the second straight victory over a ranked team for the No. 8 Lobos. UNM beat No. 20 Southern Methodist University last weekend, and Fishbein said No. 25 UAB didn’t want to play head to head with UNM. “The first half, we made it more of a war than we needed to be,” Fishbein said. “We’re a team that wants to play soccer against these guys. We wanted to get down on the field, move the ball and get them chasing. For whatever reason, it took us awhile to get into a rhythm … This was a team that didn’t want to play too much soccer against us; they were going to be successful playing very direct with set pieces, and we played very maturely. We didn’t give them very many opportunities.” The win increases the Lobos’ home-win streak to 13, which is the third longest under Fishbein.
