Roybal enumerates goals by Luke Holmen holmen@unm.edu
The Daily Lobo spoke with ASUNM President Jaymie Roybal about ASUNM’s plans for this year. Roybal outlined both long- and short-term goals for the University.
Juan Labreche / Daily Lobo ASUNM president Jamie Roybal Short-Term Goals ASUNM Website — More than half of the semester has already passed and ASUNM’s website still isn’t up and running. The site displays spring election results and reads “Have a good summer” on the main page. Roybal said the site isn’t up yet because it is being completely revamped. “Previously the website had to be redesigned each year, with each new webmaster,” she said. “We are looking for something permanent that is easy to amend. My vice president

and I made the decision to have the University build the website.” ASUNM signed a contract with University Web Communication Services for 67 hours of work on the site, estimated to cost $3,350. “Most likely it will cost less, but we budgeted for this amount to ensure everything could be completed,” Roybal said. Student Participation naming new Residence Halls — ASUNM passed a resolution requesting Administration allows students to take part in naming new residence halls, after the Casas Del Rio project was named without consulting students. “It’s a student resident hall, students should name the buildings,” Roybal said. “The administration has been supportive and is going to allow students to name them.” Roybal said she also hopes to work with American Campus Communities and University Administration on design features of the new buildings. She said ACC sent representatives to ASUNM meetings earlier last year and showed them a number of possible designs for the residence halls. UNM day at the Legislature and Tuition Credit — On Jan. 30, students can present proposals and requests before the State Legislature during the Legislature’s annual UNM day in Santa Fe. Roybal said ASUNM’s focus for this year is to persuade legislators to permanently remove UNM’s tuition credit. “The tuition credit basically says that the state will take a portion of UNM’s tuition and will allocate it to any other agency they wish,” she said. “It’s basically a tax on students. You are being taxed for
attending higher education. Students shouldn’t be used to balance the state budget.” ASUNM will provide free lunch at Tomasitas Mexican Restaurant in Santa Fe and a free Railrunner ticket to participating students.
Students participated in activities like wheelchair basketball and a blindfolded obstacle course to experience what it might be like to live with a disability as a part of UNM’s Disability Awareness Day on Friday. Advocates for Universal Design, a student organization, hosted the event along with UNM’s Accessibility Resource Center, the Office of Equal Opportunity and the Office of Equity and Inclusion. AUD President Randy Holley said the goal of the event was to raise awareness about challenges people with disabilities face, and educate students with disabilities about resources that can help them. “We want people to take our wheelchair obstacle course challenge to see how hard it is to go down that ramp (by the SUB) to the library, go in the library, pick up some study materials and come back the same way they went and go back up that ramp,” she said. “That ramp is horrible; it’s definitely not a pleasant trip.” Student Amanda Youngblood, who is blind and a member of UNM’s division of the National Federation of the Blind, helped lead the “blind challenge.” She blindfolded challenge
participants who were asked to maneuver using a cane while being led by a person who is blind. Youngblood said she thinks Disability Awareness Day is an effective way to help students understand disabilities. “I think it’s just really about educating the public and spreading awareness about various disabilities and getting the word out there,” she said. “I think they’ll learn that we’re people just like everyone else and we just have to do things a little differently and it’s not scary.” The Albuquerque Kings, a wheelchair basketball team, was also at the event encouraging students to try playing wheelchair basketball. Team member and student Dominique Rogers said students need to realize people with disabilities are just like anyone else. “I think people notice people with disabilities, but don’t always feel comfortable with approaching them,” Rogers said. “Events like this allow them to feel comfortable about approaching them and asking questions. Student Jaime Astorga tried playing wheelchair basketball and said it was a challenge. “You’re really not aware of what people with disabilities do with sports,” she said.
GRAND OPENING
Long-Term Goals Improved Lighting on Campus — Roybal said ASUNM plans to improve on-campus lighting as part of a safety initiative. “We are requesting capital funds from the state to improve lighting on campus,” she said. “It’s a work in progress and we can’t guarantee it, but we’ve had some issues with safety before and that is one of my main priorities. We are working on getting a proposal put together to figure out how much this costs.” Bike Share — Roybal said her primary long-term goal is creating a campus bike-share program. The proposed program would allow students to rent bicycles from various electronic pay kiosks on campus. “That is my number one right now,” she said. “We always talked about being alternative transportation-friendly, but I don’t see a lot of evidence of that and I think this is a good proactive way to do something about it. A student could rent a bike from a resident hall and go to Nob Hill … then return it at a different location if they wanted.” Roybal said the project is in its early development stages, so cost estimates and locations are not

Man pulls knife on Jackson trial turns to science Occupy protesters by Linda Deutsch
The Associated Press
by Chelsea Erven
news@dailylobo.com Police arrested a man Friday after he threatened Occupy Albuquerque protesters on UNM campus with a knife. Miguel Aguirre, 48, was charged with four counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and resisting arrest at Occupy’s site, Camp Coyote, Albuquerque Police Department Sgt. Patrick Ficke said. “(The protesters) have no business being here, man,” Aguirre told KOB. “I told them to leave and get out.” Police reports said Aguirre approached several protesters with a pocket knife asking “Who wants to be first?” Protesters Erica Estes and
Jason Logan told police they felt their lives were in immediate danger, according to the report. Protester Donald Richards said Aguirre appeared intoxicated. Aguirre fled the scene when officers arrived. Ficke said officers found Aguirre in the McDonald’s parking lot across the street from the protesters’ camp. Ficke said they found the knife in a bush nearby. Ficke said he Tasered Aguirre after he refused several commands. According to police reports, Aguirre said he had been on a drinking binge for a few days and feels the protesters are disrespecting UNM and the property. Three people identified Aguirre as the attempted stabbing suspect.

LOS ANGELES — While the defense was on the verge of its counter attack in the trial of Michael Jackson’s doctor, the prosecution dramatically shifted the focus from personalities to science, its most powerful weapon in the courtroom battle. Its star witness, a scientist with a reassuring witness box manner, had jurors on their feet straining for a better view of his show-andtell demonstration. It was the closest they would come to seeing a purported re-enactment of how the King of Pop died. Dr. Conrad Murray, charged with causing Jackson’s death, watched intently as Dr. Steven Shafer closed the case against him holding a bottle of propofol, an IV bag and a tube carrying the milky white liquid downward. That was how it happened on Assistant Photo Editor Dylan Smith Culture Editor Alexandra Swanberg Assistant Culture Editor Nicole Perez Sports Editor Nathan Farmer Assistant Sports Editor Cesar Davila Copy Chief Craig Dubyk Multimedia Editor Junfu Han
June 25, 2009, said Shafer. He was certain. On Monday, a defense attorney will try to shake his testimony, and later a fellow scientist billed as “the father of propofol” will offer another theory. Whether Dr. Paul White can absolve Murray of blame for the singer’s death remains to be seen. But the defense is just beginning. “He will have to stand firm on the fact that reasonable minds can differ,” said Marcellus McRae, a former federal prosecutor and trial attorney who has been following the case closely. “He will have to change the landscape here and show some reasonable doubt. The question is, will this be enough?” Murray, a Houston-based cardiologist, has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter. McRae said calling Shafer as the final prosecution witness was a master stroke. “Brick by evidentiary brick, Shafer has built a wall of scientific

reasons for the jury to conclude that Dr. Murray was criminally negligent,” he said. “It allows the prosecution to tell the jury that their case is built on science rather than shifting theories.” In addition to making the science understandable, Shafer offered some colloquial phrases that may resonate with jurors. He called Murray’s unorthodox use of propofol as entering “a pharmacological never-never land” and said the doctor was “clueless” when it came to helping his dying patient. And he denounced a defense theory that Jackson could have awoken from sedation and given himself the drugs that killed him during a few minutes that he was left alone by Murray. “People don’t just wake up from anesthesia hell-bent to pick up a syringe and pump it into the IV,” Shafer said, reminding the jury that the procedure was complicated. “It’s a crazy scenario.”

New Mexico Daily Lobo nm briefs
Case remains open for Las Cruces explosion LAS CRUCES — It has been three years since an explosion leveled a 4,500-square-foot home and a $350,000 motor coach on Deadwood Camp Court in the affluent Talavera neighborhood east of Las Cruces. Now, investigators say they are leaving the possibility open of filing criminal charges in the explosion. Nobody was injured when the home and RV were destroyed in the early morning hours of Oct. 23, 2008. The explosion damaged 13 homes up to a quarter of a mile away. At the time, the home had been for sale for more than a year, listed for $723,000. The owners were a former El Paso Drug Enforcement Agency agent and his wife. The Las Cruces Sun-News says the case remains open and in the hands of Doña Ana County and New Mexico fire investigators.
Meth lab fumes send officers to hospital ALBUQUERQUE — Two police officers were treated at a hospital following a methamphetamine lab bust in Albuquerque. A Northeast Heights apartment complex was evacuated when a unit erupted in smoke Friday night from a meth lab. The two police officers were sent to the hospital because they were exposed to the chemicals inside the lab. The officers were complaining about itchy throats and burning noses. Police called the scene a “shake and bake” meth lab because all of the ingredients were combined inside a 2-liter plastic bottle. Officers originally responded to
the scene after a disturbance call. When they arrived, they could see the meth lab inside the apartment. Police say 32-year-old Duane Wendt was arrested after he admitted to police he was making the meth to supply his habit.
Native tribes use radio to weather emergencies PEACH SPRINGS, Ariz. — When hundreds of people were stranded after a massive snowstorm on the Navajo Nation, there was no question about how to get emergency information to them. Officials went straight to the tribe’s AM radio station to tell residents what colors to display outside their homes if they needed water, food or medical attention. Messages went out in Navajo and English on what to do with readyto-eat meals that were being airdropped. On tribal reservations where few have landline phones and broadband access is spotty, radio still plays a vital role in everything from emergency notification to maintaining language and culture. Richard Davis manages a radio station on the Hopi reservation. He says the lack of infrastructure means that radio will be the failsafe in Indian County for decades to come.
Officers suspect injured infant was abused ALAMOGORDO, N.M. — Authorities say an Alamogordo woman is facing child abuse charges after her infant daughter was found unconscious in her home. Alamogordo Department of Public Safety officials say 26-yearold Samantha Noriega is jailed on a $50,000 bond at the Otero County Detention Center.
Occupy updates from around US The Associated Press
ILLINOIS Demonstrators in the Occupy Chicago movement stood their ground in a downtown park in noisy but peaceful defiance of police orders to clear out, prompting approximately 130 arrests early Sunday, authorities said. Occupy Chicago spokesman Joshua Kaunert vowed after the arrests that protests would continue in the Midwest city. “We’re not going anywhere; there are still plenty of us,” Kaunert told The Associated Press after the arrests, which took police more than an hour to complete. Police began taking people into custody just before 1 a.m. Sunday. Those arrested were led in groups to vans and two large white buses as others clamored to be arrested. Kaunert said none of those arrested had resisted. PENNSYLVANIA Philadelphia police have arrested more than a dozen protesters who camped out in the middle of the street across from police headquarters overnight. Deputy Commissioner William Blackburn says a group had marched Saturday from the Occupy Philadelphia encampment outside City Hall to police headquarters to protest alleged police brutality across the nation. Protesters say the group gathered on the sidewalk across the street, and after several hours police closed the road and asked them to move. Police say about 20 to 30 people moved into the middle of the blocked-off street and remained there until about noon Sunday, ignoring requests to disperse. Blackburn said
She’s being held on suspicion of one count of first-degree child abuse resulting in great bodily harm. The Alamogordo Daily News says DPS were called to Noriega’s residence Friday about a child who wasn’t breathing. Authorities say the 8-monthold girl was transported to Gerald Champion Regional Medical Center, then airlifted to University Medical Center in El Paso, Texas, due to a brain hemorrhage. Doctors and investigators say it appears the child was dropped multiple times, resulting in the head injuries. It’s unclear whether Noriega has a lawyer.
Stolen goods come to more than $30,000 SANTA FE — A mother and son are behind bars after Rio Arriba County deputies say they busted a burglary ring. A woman from Medanales reported a burglary at her home Wednesday involving some highend jewelry, including one ring appraised at $13,000. The Santa Fe New Mexican reports that investigators found the ring at an Espanola business that buys and sells used jewelry. That led to Thursday’s arrest of 36-year-old Jeannie Martinez, of Medanales. She’s being held in lieu of $10,000 cash bond for suspicion of disposing of stolen property. Authorities say a search warrant of Martinez’s home turned up more than $30,000 in stolen property. Her 18-year-old son, Nicholas Martinez, is being held without bond at Santa Fe County Jail. He’s accused of larceny, residential burglary and receiving stolen property.

FLORIDA Occupy Wall Street protesters have merged with environmental groups to rally outside a Miami convention. Police estimate nearly 100 protesters were outside the Society of Environmental Journalists convention on Saturday. Nathan Pim is part of Occupy Miami, but he told The Miami Herald that he’s a proponent for environmental issues and the idea of unifying the two groups made sense. During the rally a group of musicians played bongos and tambourines, sparking an impromptu sing-along. Farther north, Orlando police arrested 19 Occupy protesters for trespassing in a city park after hours on Saturday. OHIO Police say 11 Occupy Cincinnati protesters were arrested early Sunday after refusing to leave a downtown square. Capt. Doug Wiesman tells The Associated Press those arrested remained in Fountain Square after the 3 a.m. closing time. Occupy Cincinnati spokeswoman Kristin Brand says demonstrators were at the justice center Sunday afternoon to greet the released protesters. She says the protesters are deciding whether they will risk arrest again Sunday night and Monday morning. Sunday’s action came after 23 protesters camping after closing hours at a nearby park were arrested last week. Brand calls the spate of recent arrests an escalation by police.

THIS WEEK’S POLL:
Students protested the Chick-fil-A restaurant chain, which has a location in the SUB, last week because it allegedly supports anti-gay rights groups. In this light, do you think UNM should kick Chick-fil-A off campus? No. Homosexuality is an abomination and I’m pleased Chick-fil-A supports these groups. No. Companies should not be discriminated against based on their political opinions. Yes. A company that funds hate groups has no place at a public university. I’m indifferent.

Paper should investigate high parking costs at UNM Editor, Could you please look into the practices of the new parking ramp systems? While I agree that the construction was quick and well done, what I cannot agree with is the price gouging that is taking place in these ramps. At $1.75 per hour, it feels like I am parking at the Sunport! Due to my current work situation, I have had to use the Yale parking ramp multiple times within the past few weeks (I usually take the rapid ride). This past week, I received a ticket. I am not one to shy away from responsibility, and have sent a check to them to pay for it. The reason I am sharing all of this information is that I feel it should be known by others that I have been charged $20 for being 20 minutes late to pick up my vehicle. In my opinion, this fee is outrageous. Most likely the money is going to help cover the cost of the many solar panels (which I support and am proud of) and general construction of the ramp, but does this justify the price charged for parking? Am I really just a money-making machine to this university? (Yes.) I thought it would be helpful to encourage the pushing of those buttons that the Lobo has been known to push, if only to get some answers as to what these high rates are for. Thank you for your time.

Study and practice your way to great sex by Hunter Riley hriley@unm.edu
That stereotypical toe curl that movies show during sex scenes happens for a reason — because the skin in between your toes is an erogenous zone, according to the book Human Sexuality in a World of Diversity. Erogenous zones are areas of the body that are highly sensitive and can initiate sexual arousal, aka your sexual response cycle. Erogenous zones break down into primary and secondary zones. Primary erogenous zones range from the obvious, such as genitals, breasts and butts, to the slightly odd, such as the ear lobes, lips, bellybuttons and even armpits. Secondary erogenous zones can vary based on your sexual actions. When you give someone a back rub as foreplay, his or her back can become an erogenous zone. Your brain becomes an erogenous zone when you fantasize about a certain scenario. All of these zones play a crucial part in arousal. If paid attention to, the sexual experience will include orgasms for everyone. There are basic differences in the way that men and women become aroused, so it may be important for you to consider how these differences apply to you. The sexual response cycle refers to the stages our bodies go through on the road to orgasm. The stages are excitement, plateau, orgasm and resolution. These stages are similar in men and women, but there are some subtle differences that can play a huge role in getting both partners adequately aroused to the point of not only orgasm, but to having wholly satisfying sexual experiences.
A study done by Queen’s University psychology professor Meredith Chivers found that even though women have increased blood flow to their genitals after seeing a sexual stimulus, their actual desire to have sex doesn’t always follow as readily as it does in men. Ellen Laan and Stephanie Both published an article in the journal Feminism and Psychology entitled “What Makes Women Experience Desire?” which states that in several cited studies, they did not find a correlation between increased blood flow in the vagina and reported subjective arousal. That shouldn’t be confused with the idea that women didn’t get physiologically aroused. The studies Laan and Both reference in their articles have men and women
watching, listening to, or imaging a sexy scenario to measure arousal. “While watching a film depicting explicit sexual activity, most women’s vaginal blood flow increases as measured with vaginal photoplethysmography (a technique of measuring blood flow with a light-sensitive device a woman puts inside her vagina). This increase occurs within seconds after the onset of a film, which suggests a relatively automatic response not requiring conscious cognitive processes. Even when the erotic film is disliked or induces little or no feeling of sexual arousal, genital responses still occur,” the article’s introduction states. It also states that when women watched ‘woman-friendly’ porn, videos that allow time for plot and character development, their level of subjective sexual arousal was higher than when they watched ‘manfriendly’ porn. ‘Man-friendly’ erotica is film that spares little if no time for such developments, and gets right down to business. It’s also interesting to note that there weren’t differences in women’s genital arousal between either set of erotic videos. “These findings support our idea that men’s sexual feelings are primarily determined by peripheral feedback from the genitals, but that women’s sexual feelings are more informed by the meaning the sexual stimulus generates,” Laan and Both’s article states. Think of erogenous zones as levels to a video game in the game of the sexual response cycle. Once you pass the first level, you have the tools to progress to level two. But without the experience you gained from level one, making your partner’s toes curl is going to be harder.
LETTER SUBMISSION POLICY
EDITORIAL BOARD
According to a study conducted by the sex research team William Masters and Virginia Johnson (1966), men can get an erection in as little as three to eight seconds after initial stimulation. Women need a little more time and encouragement: Vaginal lubrication may start 10-30 seconds after stimulation begins. Men, in general, have a more direct link between arousal and being ready for sex. Many women, however, report that even though they may be getting wet, that doesn’t necessarily mean they want sex.

War in Iraq winding down by Robert Burns
The Associated Press
BALI, Indonesia — In the final days of the United States war in Iraq, the outlook for America’s military entanglements is markedly different from the confusing, convulsive first days. Early on, Iraq looked, to many, like one among a string of big conflicts in a “war on terror.” That was the view of John Abizaid when the now-retired Army general led U.S. forces in Iraq in 2003-04. At an American base in northern Iraq one day in early 2004, Abizaid told soldiers preparing to return home that he hoped they would remain in uniform and keep building combat experience. Asked by an Associated Press reporter why he had made that pitch, Abizaid said, “I think the country is going to face more of these (ground wars) in the years ahead.” That was a widely accepted, and often dreaded, view at the time. Now, with the last American troops set to depart by year’s end, Iraq seems more likely to signal an end to such long and enormously costly undertakings in the name of preventing another terrorist attack on U.S. soil — at least under the administration of President Barack Obama. He opposed the Iraq war and has declared that “the tides of war are receding.” With Obama also pledging to end the United States’ combat role in Afghanistan within three years, the military’s focus is turning to places such as Yemen and Somalia. There, the approach is different: Aerial drones, proxy forces and small teams of commandos are the preferred formula for containing the Islamic extremists who would plot terrorist attacks against the United States.
ASUNM Goals
Libya, too, has so far been a case for limited American military intervention. The United States cleared the sky ahead of a NATO-led air campaign to protect civilians without putting any troops on the ground. It took about eight months and cost the United States about $1.1 billion to aid in achieving the Libyan rebels’ goal of toppling Col. Moammar Gadhafi. The potential for bigger conflicts persists in places such as Pakistan, whose growing arsenal of nuclear weapons sets it apart from other potential hot spots. Iran is a major worry, too, in light of its suspected drive to build a nuclear bomb and its proclaimed goal of wiping out Israel. But an American invasion of Iran, on a scale like Iraq, seems highly unlikely for now. There are other troublesome security challenges facing the United States, including China’s expanding military and asserting its influence. But the Obama approach — not unique, but distinctive in comparison to that of his predecessor — is to try to prevent festering security problems from growing into full-blown crises. The U.S. military can play a role in those cases without being called on to invade and depose a government. Robert Gates, the former secretary of defense, captured this idea in a speech last winter to Army cadets at the U.S. Military Academy in which he said it would be unwise to ever fight another war like Iraq or Afghanistan. “In my opinion, any future defense secretary who advises the president to again send a big American land army into Asia or into the Middle East or Africa should ‘have his head examined,’ as General MacArthur so delicately put it,” Gates said. Even with the Iraq exit in sight, the U.S. military is unlikely to wash its
hands of the problems it will leave behind after nearly nine years of fighting. Wars don’t end that neatly, and it is yet to be seen whether U.S. troops take on new missions in Iraq in 2012 to keep the country on track. Obama is ending the United States’ role in the Iraq war, but that does not necessarily mean the war itself is ending. Al-Qaida in Iraq remains. Ethnic and sectarian tensions persist. Chaos could again descend upon the country, testing the resilience of Iraqis who suffered enormously under Saddam Hussein and again during the U.S. war. Even after America declares an end to its presence in Iraq in December, about 157 service personnel are expected to remain, working out of the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad under Army Lt. Gen. Robert Caslen. Their job will be to oversee security assistance to the Iraqi government, as similar embassy contingents do in many other Persian Gulf countries and beyond. About 760 private contractors working for the State Department will help the Iraqis field new military equipment purchased from the United States and give them initial training with that equipment. But that is not the depth and scale of training that many U.S. military officers believe the Iraqis need. On his flight to Indonesia on Friday, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta told reporters that negotiations with Iraq on future training possibilities will begin later. If such talks are held, they likely would start either when Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki visits Washington in December or after the end of the year, according to a senior defense official familiar with the discussions.

Ski area’s Jesus statue creates controversy

by Matt Gouras
The Associated Press HELENA, Mont. — A statue of Jesus on U.S. Forest Service land in the mountains over a Montana ski resort faces potential eviction amid an argument over the separation of church and state. The Forest Service offered a glimmer of hope late last week for the statue’s supporters by withdrawing an initial decision to boot the Jesus statue from its hillside perch in the trees. But as it further analyzes the situation before making a final decision, the agency warned rules and court decisions are stacked against
allowing a religious icon on the 25by-25-foot patch of land. The statue has been a curiosity to skiers at the famed Big Mountain ski hill for decades, mystifying skiers at its appearance in the middle of the woods as they cruise down a popular ski run. But the Freedom From Religion Foundation isn’t amused by the Jesus statue. The group argued that the Forest Service was breaching separation of church and state rules by leasing the small plot of land for the Jesus statue, and is pushing the agency to stand by its original decision to remove the religious icon.
“This has huge meaning for Americans, and if you aren’t religious it has huge meaning as well,” said Annie Laurie Gaylor, a member of the Madison, Wis.-based group. “If skiers think that it is cute, then put it up on private property. It is not cute to have a state religious association.” The local chapter of the Knights of Columbus, a Catholic fraternal organization, have maintained the statue ever since members that included World War II veterans, who were inspired by religious monuments they saw while fighting in the mountains of Europe, erected the monument in the 1950s. But the group thinks the large statue made of a cement-type material is too fragile in its current state to be moved around the rugged mountainside to a different location. The Forest Service in August initially rejected a renewal of the 10year lease. It said the religious nature of the statue was obvious and believed it could be placed on private land as close as 2,600 feet away. The Knights have never been charged for use of the public land. The agency, under fire from Congressman Deny Rehberg (R-Montana) and others, announced Friday it would withdraw that decision and open the issue again to public comment. It said a notification that the statue is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places could help — but is far from a guarantee it can stay. Gaylor, with the group fighting the statue, called it a “ruse and a sham” to consider it a historic marker. “This has been an illegal display.
The lease should have never happened,” said Gaylor. “Just because a violation is long-lasting doesn’t make it historic, it makes it historically bad. It makes it worse. It makes it all the more reason to get rid of it.” Bill Glidden, Grand Knight of the Kalispell Council, recently submitted a request asking the Forest Service to change its mind. He stressed the historical significance of the statue to the Whitefish, and believes it honors the memory of the veterans who installed it.
“We all agreed around the table this is a tempest in a teapot. This is making trouble for us in our little community.”
“We would like to see it stay there. The community would like to see it say there,” Glidden said. “It’s more than just a religious icon, it is a memorial to our vets.” Representative Rehberg is telling the Forest Service he agrees the historical significance outweighs other concerns. “The Forest Service’s denial of the lease defies common sense. Using a tiny section of public land for a war

memorial with religious themes is not the same as establishing a state religion,” Rehberg said in a statement. “That’s true whether it’s a cross or a Star of David on a headstone in the Arlington National Cemetery, an angel on the Montana Vietnam Memorial in Missoula or a statue of Jesus on Big Mountain.” The Forest Service in its original decision pointed to case law stacked against such a statue, and argues rules prevent the federal government from favoring or promoting religion. The Knights were ordered in that August letter to have a removal plan in place by the end of the year, and must have the statue moved and the site restored in a year. Phil Sammon, media coordinator for the Forest Service’s Northern Region, said the agency is carefully looking at the issue. “We absolutely understand the local importance and local history of this statue,” he said. “That’s what makes this a complicated issue.” Whitefish resident Bob Brown, a former state legislator and Montana secretary of state, said the issue dominated talk at his American Legion meeting this week. He said residents, few old enough to remember a time when it wasn’t there, don’t understand the turmoil. “We all agreed around the table this is a tempest in a teapot,” Brown said. “This is making trouble for us in our little community. Why don’t they just leave us alone? … We are accustomed to it; it is part of our tradition here, so we are thinking, ‘Why does anyone want to tear that down?’”

LSU and Alabama head to conference
Volleyball FORT WORTH, Texas — The Lobos volleyball team was swept on Friday by TCU 3-0, 25-22, 25-18, 2518. Head coach Jeff Nelson changed the starting lineup in an attempt to get the team back on track toward winning after it lost its previous three matches, but failed as TCU took control in all three games. Redshirt freshman Chantale Riddle led the team with 11 kills.

The Associated Press
NEW YORK — No. 1 LSU and No. 2 Alabama have locked in their spots for the biggest regular-season game in Southeastern Conference history. The Tigers and Crimson Tide held the first two spots in The Associated Press Top 25 released Sunday after huge victories a day earlier. With both heading into an off week, LSU and Alabama are virtually assured of meeting on Nov. 5 in Tuscaloosa as the top two teams in the country. It will be the second 1 vs. 2 matchup involving SEC teams, but the first time came in the conference championship game. Oklahoma, the preseason No. 1, dropped eight spots to No. 11 after its first loss of the season. The Sooners fell 41-38 to Texas Tech on Saturday night, snapping a 39-game home winning streak. The Red Raiders moved into the ranking for the first time this season at No. 19. Wisconsin also dropped eight spots after its first loss of the season, falling to No. 12 following a 37-31 loss to Michigan State on the final play of the game. The Spartans moved up six spots to No. 9. LSU received 49 first-place votes from the media panel. Alabama got nine and No. 5 Boise State had one. Oklahoma State is No. 3, followed by fellow unbeaten teams Stanford, Boise State and Clemson. The Cowboys have their best ranking since Nov. 19, 1984, when they were also No. 3. In the USA Today coaches’ poll, LSU replaced Oklahoma as No. 1, followed by Alabama at No. 2, Stanford at No. 3, Oklahoma State at No. 4 and Boise State at No. 5. The Harris Poll top five was LSU, Alabama, Stanford, Oklahoma State and Boise State. Those two polls are used in the BCS standings, which were due out Sunday night. In the AP rankings, No. 6 Clemson has its highest ranking since 2000, when the Tigers spent four weeks at No. 5. No. 7 Oregon, Michigan State, Arkansas and undefeated Kansas State round out the top 10. Moving into the rankings this week along with Texas Tech were No. 20 Southern California, No. 21 Penn State and No. 24 Cincinnati,
EDINBURG, Texas — The Lobos ended their four-game losing streak Sunday when it beat Texas-Pan American 3-0, 25-14, 25-19, 25-14. The Lobos were swept in three of their last four matches, but this time it was UNM’s turn to do the sweeping. Senior Kelly Williamson led the team with a game high of 22 kills.
Women’s Soccer BOISE, Idaho — The Lobos continued their unbeaten run in the MWC on Sunday when they defeated Boise State 2-0. Junior Natalie Jenks opened the scoring in the 41st minute and senior Jennifer Williams scored her 10th goal of the season on a breakaway with four minutes left. UNM is now 9-4-4 on the season and 3-0-2 in conference play.

Men’s Soccer SEATTLE, Wash. — The No. 5 Lobo men’s soccer team beat Seattle 2-1 on Friday. Junior Kyle Venter opened the scoring with a header in the fifth minute to take a 1-0 lead into the half. Five minutes into the second half, senior Michael Green attempted to score but redshirt freshman Carson Baldinger spared the blushes when he scored the game-winner with 15 minutes left. BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — The men’s soccer team completed its road games undefeated for only the second time in team history when it beat No. 22 Cal State Bakersfield 2-0 on Sunday. Redshirt freshman Carson Baldinger scored off a header in the 41st minute and junior Blake Smith doubled the lead in the 68th. UNM is now 13-0-2 on the year and 7-0 in conference.

which is ranked for the first time this season. Falling out after losses were Washington, Georgia Tech, Illinois and defending national champion, Auburn. Numbers 13-18 were Nebraska, South Carolina, Virginia Tech, Michigan and Houston, which has its best ranking since 2009. Joining the four teams moving into the rankings at the bottom were No. 22 Georgia, No. 23 Arizona State and No. 25 West Virginia. For Alabama and LSU, the No. 1 vs. No. 2 matchup likely will decide which of the SEC West rivals plays in the conference championship and could ultimately determine which teams plays for the national title in New Orleans on Jan. 9. LSU’s only appearance in a 1-2 game was in the BCS title game in 2008. This will be Alabama’s sixth No. 1 vs. No. 2 game, but first in the regular season. The last time there was a No. 1 vs. No. 2 matchup in college football not played in a bowl or conference title game was 2006, when No. 1 Ohio State beat No. 2 Michigan on the final weekend of the Big Ten’s regular season and went on to lose the BCS championship game to Florida. Earlier that season, top-ranked Ohio State also played No. 2 Texas.

Falcons beat Lions 2316 behind Ryan’s 2 TDs by Larry Lage DETROIT — The Falcons might have found their groove in Motown. Matt Ryan ran and threw for touchdowns that gave Atlanta a double-digit lead in the first half, and the Falcons held on to win 23-16 in Detroit on Sunday. The defending NFC South champion Falcons (4-3) won consecutive games for the first time this season because they finally played well in all three phases on the same day. “Good teams go on streaks,” Atlanta coach Mike Smith said. “You can’t just keep yo-yoing up and down.” The Lions (5-2) have lost their luster with two straight losses – both at home – after their perfect start. Their formerly fired-up fans have started to boo, moan and groan.
Newton, Panthers beat Redskins 33-20 by Aaron Beard
M
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Cam Newton had just finished an onfield TV interview and shaken hands with Redskins players when he decided to make a quick stop on the way to the locker room. He jogged over to the end zone and gave a line of high-fives to the front row of cheering fans on his way to the tunnel. “It feels great,” the rookie said afterward, flashing the wide smile that had been absent for the better part of a month. The No. 1 overall draft pick had reason to celebrate after helping the Carolina Panthers beat the Redskins 33-20 on Sunday. There was no heading into the final minutes trying to erase another narrow deficit, only to end up with a close loss. Instead, the Panthers finally played with a lead almost the entire way and pulled away after halftime to match their win total for all of last year. And that meant Newton wouldn’t sit and stew at his locker as he had after games during Carolina’s three-game losing streak.

sports Matt Forte leads Bears Steelers’ get recordto 24-18 win over Bucs long play in 32-20 by Stephen Wilson WEMBLEY, England — Matt Forte is carrying the offense for the Chicago Bears on both sides of the Atlantic. Forte ran for 145 yards and a touchdown and the Bears held on to beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 24-18 on Sunday in the fifth annual NFL regular season game at Wembley Stadium. Jay Cutler threw for 226 yards and a touchdown, and the Bears (4-3) intercepted Josh Freeman four times for their second win in a row. The Buccaneers (4-3) lost for the second time in three years in London. Freeman threw two TD passes in the fourth quarter to pull the Bucs within three points with just over 7 minutes left. But, after a 25-yard field goal by Chicago’s Robbie Gould, Freeman was picked off for the fourth time with 37 seconds left by D.J. Moore, to end the threat.
by Bob Baum GLENDALE, Ariz. — Ben Roethlisberger threw 95 yards to Mike Wallace for the longest pass play in Steelers history and Pittsburgh went on to hand the Arizona Cardinals their fifth consecutive loss, 32-20, on Sunday. Roethlisberger, 25 of 38 for 340 yards, also had TD passes of 12 yards to Heath Miller and 4 yards to Emmanuel Sanders in the first game between the teams since Pittsburgh’s 27-23 thriller over the Cardinals in the 2009 Super Bowl. Kevin Kolb threw a pair of touchdown passes for (1-5), his first in three games, but missed several open receivers and, with a blitzing LaMarr Woodley in his face, drew an intentional grounding call in the Cardinals’ end zone for a safety. Pittsburgh (5-2) won its third straight and improved to 2-2 on the road.
Foster totals 234 yards as Tebow rallies Denver to Texans rout Titans 41-7 18-15 OT win over Miami by Teresa M. Walker NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Houston Texans gave themselves a big confidence boost and the AFC South lead at the same time. Arian Foster ran for 115 yards and two touchdowns, then added 119 more receiving, with a 78yard TD as the Texans routed the Titans 41-7 Sunday to take back the division lead from Tennessee. He became the first Texan with 100 yards rushing and receiving in the same game. The Texans (4-3) snapped a two-game skid with their largest margin of victory in franchise history even with Pro Bowl receiver Andre Johnson missing his third straight game and fullback James Casey his second because of injuries. Matt Schaub threw for 296 yards and two TDs, and the Texans won in Nashville for the second time in three years.
by Steven Wine MIAMI — Fans chanted Tim Tebow’s name in derision. They hooted as he missed open receivers, got buried under blitzes and kept falling short on third downs. Then he led an improbable comeback that became the latest chapter in the legend of Tebow. In his first start this year, Tebow rallied the Denver Broncos with two touchdown passes in the final 2:44 of the fourth quarter to force overtime, and Matt Prater’s 52yard field goal gave them an 1815 win Sunday over the stunned Miami Dolphins.

Wins buoy NCAA placement hopes by Mundo Carrillo ecarr50@unm.edu
The UNM men’s golf team is getting into the swing of things. The team, currently ranked No. 15 in the nation, won the Lone Star Invitational in San Antonio, Texas last weekend by eight strokes. Head coach Glen Millican said the success of the team can be attributed to multiple players consistently performing well. “Our guys have been prepared
“John Catlin and James Erkenbeck as juniors have really come out and played well to start the season.” ~Glen Millican head coach Lobo golf and they’ve played well,” he said. “We have at least four guys play well in every round that we’ve played.” Junior John Catlin is one of those players. He said that freshmen such as Victor Perez, a native of France, are a big part of the team’s success. “We’re all just playing really good so far,” he said. “We have some good freshman in and they’re off to a really good start.” Catlin and fellow junior James Erkenbeck have been the most successful this year, Millican said. “John Catlin and James Erkenbeck as juniors have really come out and played well to start the season,” he said. “They’ve been the best players on our team in every tournament so far.” Catlin shot four under par to finish third in the Lone Star Invitational, while Erkenbeck shot three over par to finish 17th.
Perez finished ninth, shooting one over par. UNM has two second-place finishes under its belt this season as well. Earlier this season, the Lobos finished second in the Mark Simpson Invitational, five strokes behind hosts Colorado. Their other second-place finish was in the William H. Tucker Intercollegiate, where they finished one stroke behind UNLV. The Lobos will need to gain as much experience as possible with these early-season tournaments before they open up conference play. “Our conference is always deep in golf, especially UNLV and San Diego State,” Millican said. San Diego State was ranked 14th at the beginning of the season. Catlin said he is particularly excited to compete against Texas A&M this year. “Texas A&M has always been one of our big rivals,” he said. “Our old assistant coach went to A&M, so we kind of have some mixed emotions with them. We beat them at our last tournament, so that was good.” The Aggies finished second behind the Lobos in the Lone Star Invitational. Catlin said he hopes to continue playing well so he can qualify for the NCAA championship in May. “It would be great to go to the national championship,” he said. “That’s the one I want to qualify for the most.” The Lobos have just one more tournament in the fall season, the Royal Oaks Intercollegiate in Dallas, which begins on Halloween. They tee off their spring season with the Ping Arizona Intercollegiate on Jan. 30 in Tucson, Ariz. The Lobos have six more tournaments on the road after that event, then go to the Mountain West Championship on May 4, which also takes place in Tucson.

Capricorn—The week may start
with you groping in the dark for something to hold you up. Take comfort in knowing this is only a prelude to a new beginning. Like a survivor gentled by the subliminal power of a natural disaster, you will bob back to the surface with renewed vision. This is when you build from the bottom up, reconstructing a new self, environment or situation in your life from the wreckage of a former, afflicted one. Aquarius—You may have noticed people from all parts of your social sphere coming to you in droves for a piece of what you can offer. The problem is not that these people have become needier, though you may come to view the situation that way, feeding your growing resentment. You are sure to destroy bridges if you resolve it with this mentality; get control back by setting boundaries on your own terms. Then, you’ll be happy to help. Pisces—The tide has been pulling you from the deep end, which sounds like a favor but is an obstruction for you. Unable to put your finger on precisely the problem, you seek answers in the occult, though your circumstances haven’t facilitated the kind of immersion in the subject that you need. Sit tight — the new moon on Wednesday will open the floodgates, and you’ll go further than you could have ever imagined. Aries—You typically exude an effortless confidence that convinces people, even though it shifts between reality and a façade. This past week, this beaming charisma has flickered erratically. You find that others are questioning how veritable your presentation is. Because this is a query is an ever-present gnat in your own consciousness, their suspicion verifies the reasoning behind it. Fix what you’re trying to hide instead of
wasting energy on maintenance. Taurus—you’ll feel quite unlike yourself in different ways this week. At first, you would describe it as detachment from yourself and surroundings, a haze cast over reality. Then, you will wake up Wednesday from the dream. Pay special attention as you go through your morning routine, think of it as re-building yourself. You realize your regenerative power and a new self is born. Remember, it is you, so make your own beliefs, values and preferences the foundation as opposed to anyone else’s. Gemini—Imagine yourself as a deck of cards. After a satisfying round of games, you gather yourself up, but just as you’ve pulled it all together, one fumble blows it in 52 different directions. Just remember to be patient through this process as rushing is probably what led to the initial mistake. After all, you are still contained in an area and can therefore be certain you will be back to normal in a matter of time. Cancer—It is important that you not allow yourself to be cooped up in your personal nest beyond necessity. Particularly after Wednesday, there will be a lot of opportunities arising. Taking advantage is as simple as finding the right people to open the door for you. Once you’re in, build a nest there, a home away from home. New situations aren’t always so unfamiliar; just remember adjustment will take time. Leo—You like when your presence is noticed. This week, however, it will seem necessary for you to be the center of attention. You’re hungry for validation and will latch on to any supporter you can. The problem is that everyone is currently feeling uncertain of their identity, so your old tricks won’t do it. You will be pleasantly surprised by how much you can
entertain yourself while alone. Then, share your newfound joy with your supporters in their time of need. Virgo—Lately, you feel tapped out, but just when you think the bottom of the barrel was the end of your search you’ll remember the reservoir for occasions such as this. You will have to return to the recesses of your memory, using old solutions for current problems in your life. The process itself is gratifying as you find the dusty nostalgia you stir up has a way of soothing your soul this week. This is more significant than the result, so don’t worry about where you’re heading, just enjoy. Libra—When you’re feeling down, good company, or any company at all really, help you get back to normal. Your journey to self-discovery often tramples the paths of others, which makes sense considering humans have a lot in common. However, you will find that this week that even though it doesn’t quite feel right, you will need to come into yourself without incorporating influences outside your own. Seek advisement and support from others, but ultimately you are doing your own work. Scorpio—You’ve captured your surroundings in a snow globe so you are better able to examine what’s happening. This has led to your present state in which you feel you’ve lost ownership over your life; the relationship is no longer personal. You must become an active agent in your own life, fully present. This may be a rude awakening if you have been neglectful, but if you fly with the energy of the cycle, your accomplishments will surprise you. Sagittarius—The cosmic energy intensifies this week with the inner planetary positions all gathered under Scorpio. You are liable to lose yourself in a frenzy spun by your own carelessness. Be aware you haven’t exactly lost control over your life — the action you take will depend on how much you have on your plate. With little, you can afford to indulge your free spirit, and fully-loaded you can use the intensity to accomplish a great deal.

Strong start predicted despite missing players by Cesar Davila
hendrix@unm.edu No NBA? No problem. UNM basketball is here. The first game of the season is less than two weeks away, and full-time practice began over the weekend. After an average 22-13 season, including an 8-8 conference record and a second-round loss to Alabama in the National Invitational Tournament in 2010, this year’s squad is looking to match the success of the 2009-10 team. “We’re just as talented as the 30-5 team and more experienced,” senior guard Phillip McDonald said.
“We have a really good chance to live up to the hype” ~Kendall Williams senior guard The Lobos return 10 players who saw action last season, including three seniors: McDonald, Drew Gordon and A.J. Hardeman. “We have a lot of experience this year,” McDonald said. “This is the first time in a long time we have three seniors on the team, and I feel that we’re going to have high expectations because of that.” The high expectations began last week when the Mountain West Conference predicted the Lobos to win the conference this season. Even with the loss of team leader and guard Dairese Gary, head coach Steve Alford said his backcourt is the deepest part of the team. “The competitiveness that’s going to happen in our backcourt should be a lot of fun to watch,” Alford said. “We’ve got some really good strength that I hope by committee, we can make up from a little
bit of strength and physicality that Dairese played with.” Kendall Williams, Hugh Greenwood, Jamal Fenton, Tony Snell, Dominique Dunning, Chris Perez and Kory Alford make up the guards that will be asked to step in and fill the leadership, scoring, distributing, and defensive gap Gary left behind. Gary will still be on the sidelines as a graduate manager for the Lobos. He will be the first person to have that position at the University, and will mentor the guards on the team. Gary’s season ended last year with a torn ACL injury. This season, the Lobos are suffering due to other key players’ injuries. Center Alex Kirk underwent back surgery in early August to relieve a herniated disk. Alford said his recovery has been slow and hopes he can still play this season, but redshirting is also possible. “That’s asking a lot, Alford said, “for a 7-footer to come back and really make the difference that I think Alex wants to do.” Cameron Bairstow is another big man who’s going to start the season hurt. Bairstow is battling a foot injury and will be limited in practice and games. For a large part of last season, McDonald played through an elbow injury he sustained on his shooting arm during an exhibition game, which affected his performance throughout the season. “I really appreciate what he did last year because I know he wasn’t but about 75 percent all year,” Alford said. McDonald has suffered lingering injuries for two consecutive seasons. This season he said he feels better. “I feel pretty healthy right now,” McDonald said. “I’m feeling close to 100 percent. We’re not quite there, but I’ll be right there pretty soon.” Despite the injuries and the absence of Gary, the team does have experience and chemistry that can produce a lot of wins. “We have a real talented team,” Williams said. “We have a really good chance to live up to the hype, so it’ll be fun.”
Dylan Smith / Daily Lobo The UNM men’s basketball team does sprints during a practice at the Rudy Davalos center last Thursday. The Lobos return four starters from last year and have been picked to win the MWC.
High hopes even with setbacks by Nathan Farmer sports@dailylobo.com
Juan Labreche / Daily Lobo Head women’s basketball coach Yvonne Sanchez instructs her team as Emily Stark looks on at a practice at the Rudy Davalos Center. The Lobos are picked to finish fourth in the MWC.
The UNM women’s basketball team has a conference championship in its sights. Last season, UNM finished with a 13-18 record and won just five games in conference on the way to its seventh place finish in the MWC. This year it was picked to finish fourth in the MWC, but senior Porsche Torrance said that winning the title is a realistic goal. “I haven’t won a ring since my freshman year, so I am ready for the challenge to get one more before I leave, and I think we can do it,” she said. If UNM is to succeed, it will have to do so without Sara Halasz, who suffered a season-ending ACL tear two weeks ago. Halasz was picked as a preseason all-conference selection, but head coach Yvonne Sanchez said the team can’t use the loss as an excuse. “Just because we have had some adversity, I can’t tell these kids, ‘Well, let’s shape for a mediocre year,’” Sanchez said. “We tell them they have to go their hardest and leave it all on the court so we can win basketball games.” Guard Nikki Nelson is returning after she missed all of last season with the same injury Halasz has. She will be the player to pick up the slack, Sanchez said.
“She is going to run the team,” the head coach said. “She has done a great job so far. She is a good point guard and has done a tremendous job coming back from two surgeries.” Sanchez has been the assistant coach at UNM since 2000, and took over as head coach after former head coach Don Flanagan retired in April.
“As a senior and a leader on the court I need to be more vocal and have more energy and lead by example” ~Porsche Torrance senior Nelson said the two coaches she has had in her time at UNM have been very different. “She (Sanchez) is a lot more vocal,” she said. “Flanagan was kind of even-keeled, and Sanchez is more of getting it done and more vocal and enthusiastic.” Five freshmen left the team for unknown reasons after Flanagan retired, and the Lobos also lost two seniors to graduation.
Torrance said that the players were in shock after them team lost so many players, but used the shock to make them better. “We lost two seniors, and then losing the five freshmen at the moment when that was all going on, it was a shock,” she said. “We just had to take on the challenge and know that the eight of us returning could still compete.” Torrance is one of only two seniors left on the team, and she said she needs to take charge on the court. “As a senior and a leader on the court, I need to be more vocal and have more energy and lead by example,” she said. “I have to lead my team on and encourage them every time we step into a game.” UNM opens its regular season on Nov. 11. Sanchez said the team will be prepared when it steps onto the court for the first time under her coaching. “As a coaching staff, we are going to put them in positions to win basketball games,” she said. “I truly believe as players they are going to put us in positions to win games.”
