Herrera ASUNM lets candidates spend more indicted for murder

by Ardee Napolitano news@dailylobo.com

Past instances of overspending by candidates for undergraduate student government led the elections commission to increase candidates’ spending limits for Wednesday’s election.

by Svetlana Ozden

Elections Commission Executive Director Alberto Jacome said the decision, which the commission proposed last month, helps candidates avoid exceeding their spending limits, which he said is cheating.

“Excessive spending is something we take very seriously

because it’s cheating, especially if you’re not reporting it to us,” he said.

“It’s kind of giving them a leeway to avoid excessive spending.”

Jacome said the change makes it makes campaigning easier by bringing the spending limit in line with the economy.

DAY OF TRIBUTE

news@dailylobo.com

The wife of the man who was shot and killed at a UNM foreign exchange student party in July has been indicted on a murder charge.

According to the New Mexico Courts, a grand jury indicted Amy Herrera on Nov. 1. She is charged with murdering her husband, Marc Herrera, whose death was originally ruled a suicide.

A report from the Office of the Medical Examiner later concluded that Marc Herrera was “shot by an assailant with (a) handgun” and that “the manner of death is homicide.”

According to the police report, Marc Herrera returned to his home July 1 where he and his wife were hosting a part for UNM foreign exchange students. He was intoxicated and reportedly told students at the party to move into different rooms at gunpoint. Amy Herrera said she and her husband then went into the bathroom, where he forced her to shoot him as he held her hand on the gun, according to the report.

According to the arrest warrant, Marc Herrera’s injuries were inconsistent with the manner in which Amy Herrera reported the gun was fired.

On Oct. 11, Albuquerque police arrested and charged Amy Herrera for murder and tampering with evidence, according to the arrest warrant.

Her arraignment is set for Nov. 16. It is unclear if Amy Herrera had an attorney.

Candidates for seats in the governing body the Associated Students of the University of New Mexico (ASUNM) will have a $250 limit for campaign expenses, a $50 increase from previous elections. The budget increase will apply to Wednesday’s ASUNM Senate election.

Events to showcase, promote international study

by Laura Meurer

news@dailylobo.com

Students interested in studying or working abroad can attend events all this week to learn more about international programs and opportunities.

In honor of International Education Week, the UNM provost’s office and the UNM global-education office organized events scheduled today through Thursday. International Education Week was first celebrated in 2000, and is recognized in more than 100 countries. The events at UNM aim to promote and build support for international educational exchange programs.

UNM professor Natasha Kolchevska, who teaches Russian, said international students make up about 3.5 percent of the UNM student population. She said most of these students come from China, India, South Korea and Mexico.

Kolchevska said marketing strategies encourage undergraduate students to attend the University and that graduate students usually come to the University to work with specific faculty members. She said UNM is opening a recruiting office in Beijing to recruit undergraduate students.

“This is great because one of the essential parts, I think, of an undergraduate education is having that global experience,” she said.

UNM student Jessica MasiasSmith said she is interested in studying abroad and that the events should be a good place to find resources to do so.

“Studying abroad has always been a dream, but I never actually knew how to make it happen. It seems like it would be really hard to do,” she said. “I think that experience would be a once in a lifetime event. Learning other cultures is really important, and it seems like this week is celebrating that.”

Student fee board begins meeting schedule

by Megan Underwood news@dailylobo.com

Last week, the Student Fee Review Board began the monthslong process of determining the amount students will pay in activity fees next year and how that money will be divided up.

Seven voting members sit on the SFRB, two from graduate student government and five from undergraduate student government. Three additional students — two graduate students and one undergrad — serve as alternates and are nonvoting members. Four additional nonvoting

ASUNM

members represent the interests of faculty and staff members. Each year, the board makes recommendations to the president about student activity fee amounts and allocations. The board will submit its recommendations for the 2013-14 school year early next year.

SFRB graduate student alternate member Matthew Rush said at the board meeting Thursday that the board’s goal for the 2013-14 academic year is to cover all expenses while still keeping the fees affordable. He said that before holding hearings to determine how student fees will

be allocated among UNM organizations, the board decides on an approximate figure of what student fees should cost, which will then be adjusted up or down during the board’s deliberation process.

This is different from last year’s policy, which required that once an estimated fee was determined, it could be increased but not decreased. Rush said the new target fee policy allows for more flexibility.

“Last year, each person had to come in with a budget, the total amount of that budget had to account for the fee we had set. So

people had to make a lot of cuts, which led to a lot of splitting hairs,” he said. “The target fee is supposed to be something we recommend, but it’s not a default in any way.”

Organizations who want SFRB funding must submit proposals by Dec. 17. Applications are available at unm.edu/~gpsa under the “SFRB” tab.

Impact on student fees Board members discussed whether a proposed salary increase for UNM employees would mean organizations would want more money from the SFRB. But SFRB member Debbie

Morris, a nonvoting member, said the salary increase won’t be set in stone until March of next year, after the SFRB has already submitted its recommendations.

“You don’t want departments coming in saying ‘this department estimates a 3 percent raise or 2 percent raise,’” she said.

In other SFRB news The board also changed its voting policy in that now, six out of seven members must vote in favor of a motion, rather than a three-quarter majority to pass.

Workshops for organizations seeking funding are tentatively set for Nov. 29 and 30.

But if the commission finds out that a candidate overspent without reporting it, the candidate will be subject to other consequences, which could include being banned from running for election or losing his or her seat.

The last overspending case, Jacome said, was last fall, when a slate went over the $200 limit by $60. As a result, he said four members of the slate lost their speaking and voting rights during the first two committee meetings and the

first full senate meeting after their election, and one member was not allowed into the meetings at all.

ASUNM Sen. Malika Ladha was a member of the penalized slate and helped write the bill for the new spending limit. She said the previous elections code was vague, especially considering overspending guidelines.

“There were a lot of gray areas in the elections code, and that was something we really wanted to change,” she said.

As a result of the incident last fall, Ladha also wrote a bill that would help regulate candidate spending for fliers. She said candidates often buy in bulk, because it’s cheaper than buying smaller numbers of fliers, but sometimes bulk orders cost more than the spending limit.

“I was one of the students affected by (overspending), and that’s why I felt it’s very important that it’s something that doesn’t reoccur again,” she said. “It’s something that future slates have guidance on.”

Ladha’s bill, which passed last spring, allows candidates to return unused fliers to the Elections Commission. The commission then assesses the value of the returned fliers, and that amount will be subtracted from the total expenses of a candidate.

“So if you’re buying 1,000 fliers because it’s cheaper but you only need 500, you’re allowed to return 500 to the Elections Commission

from PAGE 1

“We looked at the rate of inflation of the U.S. dollar, and it was something like $56.28,” he said.

“Two hundred bucks is a lot of money, but things are getting more expensive, so candidates are actually not being able to buy as much as they can 10 years ago.”

Jacome said the Elections Commission penalizes candidates who overspend. He said that if a candidate reports that he or she went over the $250 limit, the candidate will be subject to fines.

THE DELEGATES Selecting delegates to the congress began months ago, with recommendations made by the party’s 82 million members, which are then vetted, winnowed and voted on twice. In practice, the selection is controlled by the party’s personnel division, giving the leadership room to make sure the powerful and their key proteges are included.

President Hu Jintao, who will retire as party general secretary, is a delegate from Jiangsu province, where he grew up but has not lived for four decades. Most of the 2,268 delegates are chosen to show that the congress is broadly representative. Only the opinions of a small subset matter. One power-broker, retired President Jiang Zemin, is a specially invited delegate, a sign of his continuing influence in the leadership bargaining.

2

THE LEADERSHIP After the congress ends, the Central Committee meets to select a Politburo, roughly 25 members, and from that group, the Politburo Standing Committee, the apex of power. The current standing committee has nine members, though party-connected academics say that may be whittled to seven this time.

Two members are considered shoo-ins: Xi and Vice Premier Li Keqiang, who is expected to be named premier. The Central Committee also appoints the party commission that oversees the military. A critical question is whether Hu will stay as military commission head. His predecessor, Jiang, did so, hanging on for more than two years and casting a shadow over Hu’s efforts to consolidate power.

THE CONGRESS Held over seven days, the congress selects the Central Committee, the party’s policysetting body. The most recent committee had 370 people, comprising full members and nonvoting alternates drawn from the upper echelons of the party, government and military.

The congress also names the party’s internal watchdog agency.

Though the powerful hold sway in determining the outcome, there is room for dissent on the margins. Candidates outnumber seats by a tiny percentage. Vice President Xi Jinping, who is expected to replace Hu as party chief, barely made it into the committee in 1997 in what was seen as a vote against nepotism.

His father was a patriarch of the revolution.

This time rank-and-file delegates have been told to “maintain unity” with the leadership.

HIDDEN RULES China, like most communist governments, has a history of violent, unpredictable leadership successions. One of revolutionary leader Mao Zedong’s named successors died in an alleged failed coup. Party leaders have instituted informal age and term limits to smooth out power transfers.

Party chiefs are limited to two five-year terms, while senior leaders 68 years or older at the time of a congress are considered too old to serve in a new leadership. Jiang’s stepping aside for Hu in 2002 was the first orderly succession since the party came to power in 1949.

THE BACKSTORY Choosing the new leaders involves fractious bargaining that attempts to balance out factions and interest groups in the party. Two of the presumed next leaders, Xi and Li, were anointed five years ago, inducted into Hu’s leadership to provide continuity. Xi is seen as ex-president Jiang’s man; Li as Hu’s.

Deciding the rest of the lineup has seen unexpectedly sharp-elbowed jostling this year.

Bo Xilai, a populist politician seen as a rising star, was cashiered after an aide disclosed that his wife murdered a British businessman.

He awaits prosecution, and deciding his fate divided the leadership. A Hu ally was also sidelined after his son died in a Ferrari crash, weakening Hu. How weak will be apparent by counting his allies in the new leadership.

LETTER

Improve services to truly honor veterans Editor, In the early morning of Nov. 11, 2007, I woke up far away from the United States in the Middle East country of Kuwait. I quietly walked through the lines and rows of hundreds of olive drab cots where my fellow combat soldiers still slept. I remembered that many of these young men and women had still not had a good night’s rest.

I couldn’t sleep myself, so I decided to sneak out in the early dawn and run in a 5K race to commemorate Veterans Day. I ran those 3.1 miles with Marines, Air Force and Army service men and women.

Much to my own surprise, and that of the soldiers who were stationed at this camp in Kuwait, I ran and finished the Veterans Day race in first place. I remember feeling excited for the brief victory, but largely because I was there on a stopover back to the United States. Yes, we were finally at the end of our 13-month deployment to Iraq supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom, and we were on our journey back home.

As I celebrate Veterans Day this year with my friends and family, I am humbled by our service men and women overseas in harm’s way and keenly aware of the long journey back home for our new military veterans. I believe that we can do more to assist our veterans as they transition back to our communities, and continue to make improvements as our military culture changes in the 21st century.

Today, I am calling on our entire New Mexico congressional delegation, including our new senator-elect and our new congresswoman-elect, to build a better U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs here at home by focusing on the following important issues at our local VA hospital: Recognizing and supporting gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender military veterans and their families as they seek VA health care services; adapting the VA culture to respond to and eliminate the fear, stigma and shame of veterans who live with illnesses and disabilities; and updating practices and regulations for veterans who seek care for military sexual trauma.

Change starts at home. I believe we can work to honor the service of our military veterans every day and improve the current condition of our New Mexico VA Health Care Center.

Our congressional delegation and our communities can champion this change through their leadership to improve the lives of all Americans.

LETTERS Transfer process isn’t arduous for everyone Editor’s note: This letter is in response to “Transferring credits a fickle enterprise,” published in the Oct. 22 issue of the Daily Lobo.

The article reports on issues students experience when they transfer to UNM. Editor, On Oct. 22, Antonio Sanchez published an article in the Daily Lobo citing difficulties some UNM transfer students have encountered. Sanchez reported there are 1,300 undergraduate transfer students attending UNM this fall. I am one of those 1,300 transfer students.

Nothing was mentioned in the article about the positive experiences transfer students have had, so I would like to present just a few of the good experiences I have encountered and talk about those who made them happen.

I applied for admission to UNM in January of this year as a transfer student from Daytona State College in Florida. Along with my application form, I sent my transcripts.

Planned Parenthood offers vital health care Editor, During the last year, in the lead-up to the 2012 presidential election, women’s rights have taken a front seat in the news and media. Democrats and Republicans alike have used this issue to further their political agenda. This frenzy has been dubbed “The War on Women.”

Presidential candidate Mitt Romney has repeatedly claimed that he would have, on his first day in office, cut all funding to the Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA). Planned Parenthood receives 46 percent of its funding from the federal government. Pro-life advocates have rallied in favor of this measure, but we must ask ourselves how this would truly affect everyday American women and men.

Planned Parenthood provides a wide variety of crucial health services to men and women, most of whom are low income. In 2009-10 alone, Planned Parenthood served 3 million patients, provided 11 million services and 5 million

Two weeks later, I received my acceptance letter and was to begin my first semester in the summer session.

I was unable to start at that time due to my father’s illness and then his passing away. In July, I received a phone call from Jonathon in the admissions department.

He encouraged me to “get started as soon as possible” and directed me to meet with an adviser. I can’t tell you how much his phone call meant to me, considering the circumstances.

Two weeks later, I was sitting in student adviser Mary Lou Wilkerson’s office, and not only did she outline step by step what I needed to do to complete my undergraduate degree, but she also took the time to help me sign up for my classes. When I had specific questions concerning the courses I needed for my undergraduate studies, Wilkerson directed me to the appropriate departments.

First, when I arrived at the psychology department, I found that the student adviser had resigned, but the receptionist was helpful and gave me the course requirements.

Next, I went to the Communication and Journalism Department to schedule my appointment with an adviser. Fortunately, I was able to get in that very day and met with Gregoria Arienda Cavazos. Let me tell you, she knows

her stuff, and had me on track lickety-split.

Last but not least, let me tell you about student adviser Gary Allison. That man is an expert. You can ask him anything and he has the answer for you, like it or not. Yes, that is what I said.

Just like the transfer student mentioned in the article who was upset that “a few credits she earned couldn’t be used for credit when she transferred,” a lot of my credit could not be used because my major was no longer the same and this was clearly explained to me by both Wilkerson and Allison. Not only did I accept this, I also understood why that is.

As recently as Thursday, I sat in student adviser Allison’s office to go over my LoboTrax and make certain I was on course. When I asked him about some of the issues students were complaining about, he respectfully replied, “We try our best to help our students and make them aware, but some of them just don’t hear it.”

When I read Sanchez’s article, I asked, “How much of this situation is UNM’s fault, and how much is it the student’s?” After all, as students, aren’t we responsible for making sure we are on track?

clinic visits. These services include providing birth control, STD testing, cancer screenings, vasectomies, adoption consultations, etc.

Yet Romney and pro-life advocates want Planned Parenthood to lose federal funding simply because the organization also provides abortion services. The loss of half of its funding would effectively cripple Planned Parenthood, and 3 million individuals would lose affordable access to crucial medical care. Is it moral or ethical behavior to deprive millions of Americans of affordable reproductive health care simply because you do not agree with one of Planned Parenthood’s services?

Pro-life Americans argue that their tax money going to abortions violates their conscience and is thus a violation of their morals and human rights. However, the Hyde Amendment effectively prohibits federal funding from going to abortions, and Planned Parenthood therefore funnels all federal aid into areas that are not abortion related. Therefore pro-life individuals’ tax money is not being spent on abortion.

It is also worth noting that only 3 percent of Planned Parenthood’s services performed from 2009-10 were abortions. This means that Romney would deprive 3 million Americans of PPFA

services because a meager 3 percent of services performed are abortions. Take a moment and ask yourself this question: Is it moral and ethical to effectively shut down Planned Parenthood and deprive 3 million Americans access to STD and cancer screenings because you disagree with 3 percent of its services?

Greece passes austerity budget

by Demetris Nellas and Elena Becatoros The Associated Press

ATHENS, Greece — Greek lawmakers approved the country’s 2013 austerity budget early Monday, an essential step in Greece’s efforts to persuade its international creditors to unblock a vital rescue loan installment without which the country will go bankrupt.

The budget passed by a 167-128 vote in the 300-member Parliament.

It came days after a separate bill of deep spending cuts and tax hikes for the next two years squeaked through with a narrow majority following severe disagreements among the three parties in the governing coalition.

Prime Minister Antonis Samaras pledged that the spending cuts will be the last Greeks have to endure.

“Just four days ago, we voted the most sweeping reforms ever in Greece,” he said. “The sacrifices (in

ASUNM

the earlier bill and the budget) will be the last. Provided, of course, we implement all we have legislated. “ “Greece has done what it was asked to do and now is the time for the creditors to make good on their commitments,” he stressed.

Athens says that with the passage of the two bills, the next loan installment, worth €31.5 billion, about $40 billion, should be disbursed. Without it, the government has said it will run out of cash on Friday, when €5 billion ($6.35 billion) worth of treasury bills mature.

Finance ministers from the 17nation eurozone are meeting in Brussels later Monday, with Greece high on the agenda. However, German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble has indicated it is unlikely that the ministers will decide on the disbursement at that meeting.

“We all … want to help Greece, but we won’t be put under

pressure,” Schaeuble told the weekly newspaper Welt am Sonntag.

Schaeuble said the so-called troika of debt inspectors likely won’t deliver their report on Greece’s reform program by Monday. The creditors also want to see what the debt inspectors have to say about Greece’s debt sustainability.

But speaking minutes before the vote, Samaras pledged the bailout funds would be disbursed “on time.”

Finance Minister Yannis Stournaras also stressed the precariousness of Greece’s cash reserves, with the treasury bills due on Friday.

“Without the help of the European Central Bank, the refunding of these treasury bills from the banking system will lead the private sector to complete suffocation,” Stournaras said.

Disbursement of the next installment is essential “because the

reports to verify the number and price of the fliers purchased.

“What happened in the past is that the slates didn’t put the same amount of invoices that they actually made. They spent more than what they actually put in,” he said.

Jacome said the returned fliers are recycled by the Elections Commission.

Jacome said that although overspending is the biggest and most controversial problem among candidates during elections, the problem has not occurred since last fall.

“I’ve seen it once in the past two years,” he said. “The candidates have been more careful with their spending.”

To remind candidates of the election code, Jacome said he met with each candidate two weeks ago to explain the elections code and put emphasis on spending rules.

He said he provided candidates with printed copies of the new election code so that they could access the guidelines more easily.

Jacome said he urged candidates to keep track of their budget more keenly, because if spending issues arise, they will ultimately hurt the candidates’ campaigns.

“There’s no need for any type of cheating or lying or misconduct during elections,” he said. “If you’re cheating, that’s what people are going to remember you for.”

before the election day and we will subtract that from the total amount,” Jacome said.

To identify the amount that will be deducted from candidates’ total expenses, Jacome said the commission will divide the total number of fliers the candidate purchased by the total cost for the fliers, to determine the price of each flier. The commission will then multiply the price for one flier by the number of fliers the candidate returns.

Jacome said the main problem the commission had with fliers was that candidates didn’t report the full number of fliers they used.

He said the commission calls each vendor indicated in candidates’

state’s available funds are marginal, although better than expected because the 2012 budget is being executed better than expected,� he said, adding that the funds are needed to pay salaries and pensions, as well as for the import of medicines, fuel and food.

Hours before the vote, 15,000 people converged outside Parliament in a peaceful demonstration.

The crowd was far smaller than the 80,000-strong crowd which protested last Wednesday’s austerity bill vote. That demonstration degenerated into violent clashes between riot police and hundreds of protesters.

Greece is mired in a deep recession heading into its sixth year, with more than a quarter of Greeks unemployed. Battered by

a mountain of debt and a gaping budget deficit, Greece has been relying on international bailout loans from other eurozone countries and the International Monetary Fund since May 2010.

Alexis Tsipras, the head of the main opposition Radical Left Coalition party, or Syriza, insisted the new austerity cuts are unfair and would leave Greeks unable to buy essentials such as food, fuel and medicine this winter. “This is why we say you are dangerous for this country,� Tspiras said, addressing the government. “You are incapable of negotiating.�

Tspiras promised to repeal the austerity laws and negotiate “on an equal footing� with the country’s creditors if he were to come to power.

In an opinion poll published in the Sunday newspaper To Vima, 66 percent opposed the new austerity measures, but 52 percent said the government, which emerged from June elections, should be given more time to handle the economic crisis.

The poll showed Syriza, which placed second in the June elections, ahead of the coalition leader, the center-right New Democracy party, by nearly 3 percentage points.

The extreme right-wing nationalist Golden Dawn party continued its strong showing with more than 10 percent of respondents preferring it.

The poll, which involved 1,017 respondents, had a margin of error of 3.07 percentage points.

Spaniards gangway for ancient sheep parade

by Harold Heckle

The Associated Press

MADRID — Spanish shepherds led a flock of more than 2,000 sheep through central Madrid on Oct. 28 in defense of ancient grazing, migration and droving rights threatened by urban sprawl and modern agricultural practices.

Many tourists and residents were surprised to see traffic cut to allow the ovine parade to bleat its way across some of Madrid’s most upscale urban streets.

The right to use droving routes that wind across land that was open fields and woodland before Madrid grew from a rural hamlet to the great metropolis it is today has existed since at least 1273.

Every year, a handful of shepherds defend the right and, following an age-old tradition, on Sunday paid 25 maravedis — coins first minted in the 11th century — to city hall to use the crossing.

Shepherds have a right to use 78,000 miles (125,000 kilometers) of paths for seasonal livestock migrations from cool highland pastures in summer to warmer and more protected lowland grazing in winter.

The movement is called

transhumance and in Spain up until recently involved close to a million animals a year, mostly sheep and cattle.

Modern farming practices are, however, increasingly confining animals to barns, because shepherding is

costly, according to the Ministry of Agriculture, which has been promoting the colorful annual Transhumance Fiesta in Madrid since 1994.

Madrid became an important urban center when King Philip II chose it as the capital of his vast empire in

1561. Some paths have been used for more than 800 years and modern-day Madrid has sprawled to engulf two north-south routes. One that crosses Puerta del Sol — Madrid’s equivalent of New York’s Times Square — dates back to 1372.

Spaniards are proud of their centuries-old sheep rearing traditions and hold the native Merino breed of sheep in particular esteem. Merinos have gone on to form the backbone of important wool industries in places such as Australia and South America.

finish this season how it needs to be finished. We’re playing for them (the seniors) and they’re playing for us,” he said. “We’re just going to make the best of it and enjoy the time we have left in this season.”

Down 28-23 with 6:22 left in the game and the ball at their 10-yard line, the Lobos began to march downfield. On third-and-6 from the UNM 42-yard line, junior running back Kasey Carrier ran up the gut for 4 yards, but sophomore guard LaMar Bratton received a personal foul penalty that pushed the Lobos from fourth-and-2 to fourth-and-17.

UNM punted on the next play.

Head coach Bob Davie said the

plan was to score the go-ahead touchdown with little or no time left in the game.

“We were going to take it down and score. That’s what we are, and we felt really good right there in that situation,” he said. “I hate to see that call made, and I think most people hate to see that call made in that situation.”

The UNM defense came up with a stop on Wyoming’s next possession and forced a punt. The Lobos got the ball back at their own 39yard line with 1:40 left. But freshman quarterback Cole Gautsche threw three straight incomplete passes to end the game.

Gautsche ran for a career-high 149 yards on 17 carries, and threw for a career-high 155 yards with two touchdowns on 8-15 passing. Gautsche entered the contest with only 67 yards passing and zero touchdowns through the air.

“He’s still got some limitations.

We’re not a team that’s going to drop back in a two-minute drill. He made some throws in the passing game,” Davie said.

UNM gave up touchdown throws of 81, 64 and 33 yards in the first half to Wyoming quarterback Brett Smith. On the day, Smith passed for 374 yards with four touchdowns.

Davie said big plays continue to

New Mexico Daily Lobo haunt UNM’s defense.

“We continue to give up the big plays; it’s no secret,” he said. “People continue to expose us.”

The Lobos hit the end zone first, scoring on a 7-yard pass from Gautsche to junior tight end Andrew Aho. The Cowboys answered with three scoring drives in a span of 7:11 to make it 21-7 at the half.

UNM responded with a 52-yard bomb to a wide open Kirk with 10:04 left in the third quarter. On the Lobos’ next possession, kicker Justus Adams nailed a 20-yard field goal to trim the Cowboys’ lead to four.

The Lobos gave up only 121 yards in the second half, and Bollema said the team didn’t make any halftime adjustments.

“We just had a few mental errors in the first half… in the second half everyone was a little more locked in and getting off the field when we needed to,” he said.

Wyoming pushed the lead to 2817 thanks to Smith’s fourth and final touchdown pass from 19 yards out to a wide open Jalen Claiborne.

The Lobos came back with an eightplay, 71-yard, 4:21 second drive of their own, capped by Carrier’s only touchdown of the game to cut the lead to the final score of 28-23.

Lobos head to Kentucky for NCAA championships

by Michael Sol Warren sports@dailylobo.com @MSolDub

The UNM men’s and women’s cross country teams are heading to Louisville, Ky. After running at the NCAA Mountain Region championships in Fort Collins, Colo., on Friday, both teams received bids to NCAA championships. This is the fifth straight trip to the national championship meet for the women’s team, and the fourth straight for the men.

The No. 17 women’s team received an automatic bid to nationals by finishing second with 95 points. No. 13 Weber State was the women’s regional champion, scoring 63 points. UTEP senior Risper Kimaiyo was the individual champion, covering the 6K course in 20:10.8. Senior Josephine Moultrie led the Lobos, finishing fifth overall with a time of 20:25.1 “The race went really well,” senior Shawna Winnegar said. “We definitely learned that any team can come through with a win on any

day. I think we have a great team vibe heading into nationals, and I’m looking forward to keeping that up.”

During the past four years, the women’s team has finished no lower than 18th at the national meet.

The women finished ninth last year, while the best finish through the streak was fifth in 2010.

The No. 16 men’s team will join the women at the championships, thanks to an at-large bid. The men finished fourth at regionals, scoring 108 points. Texas Tech junior Kennedy Kithuka won the

individual crown, finishing the 10K course in 29:36.8. Junior Luke Caldwell was the first Lobo across the line, finishing 12th overall with a time of 30:21.9.

“They did a great job,” UNM head coach Joe Franklin said in a press release. “They ran well as a group.

They did a really solid job, and they just keep getting better and better.”

In the past three trips to the national meet, the men’s team has had mixed results. Last year, the men finished 31st. Just two years before, in 2009, the team finished eighth.

The national championships will be held Nov. 17 at E.P. Tom Sawyer State Park in Louisville, Ky. That gives the team about a week’s rest before racing again. This differs from the rest of the season, as the Lobos usually race every other week.

“It is definitely more difficult to race back-to-back,” Winnegar said.

The 31-team championship field is made up of 18 automatic qualifiers and 13 at-large qualifiers. Automatic bids are given to the top two finishing teams at each of the nine regional championships.

SPORTS BRIEF Volleyball The UNM volleyball team lost a nonconference bout against Cal State-Bakersfield 3-2 (25-13, 15-25, 25-15, 25-22, 10-15) on Sunday.

The Lobos had a 2-1 advantage and led most of the fourth set, but the Roadrunners fought back and carried the momentum to win the fourth and fifth sets.

Sophomore Chantale Riddle had a team-high 16 kills, while Lena Skipper and Lexi Ross added 10 each. Riddle also had 15 digs and senior Jordan Russell tallied 12 digs.

Freshman Hannah Johnson had career-highs in set assists and digs with 40 and 14, respectively. It was Johnson’s first career double-double.

Cal State’s Debora Araujo led all players with 17 kills.

It’s the Lobos fifth loss in six games, and the team is now 1910, 6-6 MWC.

Air Force head coach Doug Hill said.

“The Lobos are a very good team.

I thought they were on fire Friday night. It’s a team, I think, that can go far in the NCAAs.” The Falcons needed some lategame heroics to make it 3-for-3.

With 16 seconds left in regulation, Air Force cleared the ball out of its end toward Durr, who fired the shot from the top of the box and over UNM sophomore goalie Patrick Poblete.

“With 16 seconds, you hope the ball drops to the right guy,” Hill said.

“It did, and he’s a great shooter. As long as you keep it on frame, you have a chance.”

UNM took a 1-0 lead at the 29:31 mark, when freshman midfielder Ben McKendry scored from 4 yards out off an assist from junior forward Michael Kafari. McKendry recorded his third goal of the tournament and

his seventh of the season.

The Lobos played aggressively throughout the game, taking 11 shots while Air Force took five. That aggressive play did not result in a second goal.

“A 1-0 lead is a dangerous lead,” Fishbein said. “We had things we focused on in the game, and when you have a lead against a team like that, you don’t give them second chances.”

Poblete, starting at net for senior Victor Rodriguez, made three saves and surrendered one goal. Poblete will play in the first round of the College Cup when Rodriguez serves a one-game suspension levied by the NCAA for punching a South Florida player after last season’s 6-5 shootout loss in the NCAA tournament.

Air Force senior goalie Matt Underwood made three saves with one goal allowed.

New Mexico Daily Lobo

Men’s Basketball

from page 12

Davidson already has a game under its belt. The Wildcats captured a 93-67 win over Emory University on Friday. Davidson had four players reach double-figure scoring, led by Brooks’ 24 points.

Davidson is 1-3 all-time at The Pit. The Lobos and Wildcats have played each other once: a 92-77 UNM victory in 1978. Davidson went 1-1 at the 2000 Lobo Invitational with a 84-73 loss to Drexel and a 75-70 win over William & Mary. At the 2002 NCAA Tournament, the Wildcats lost to Ohio State 69-64.

UNM, returning eight players and three starters, plays its first regular-season game, following two exhibition wins over Victory University and New Mexico Highlands.

While experimenting with different lineups in both exhibitions, UNM displayed its four-guard sets for several minutes.

The Lobos will be without senior guard Jamal Fenton, as he begins his three-game suspension handed down by the NCAA for an improper-benefits violation.

Alford said his team is “very healthy, as healthy as we’ve been” heading into the season.

Changes were required to prepare for the unique midnight start.

Alford said the team has held practice this week from around 8-10 p.m., instead of its regular afternoon sessions. Its 11 a.m. shootarounds were moved to 3 p.m., and Monday’s pregame meal has been rescheduled from 3:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

“It’s a matter of changing up the style you’re accustomed to, staying up a little later,” Williams said. “The days are a little longer, but we’re going to do a good job of getting rest.”

The NCAA does not allow practice between midnight and 4 p.m.,

BANDIDO HIDEOUT

Alford said.

He said he is requiring the players to go to class today and Tuesday morning. UNM will depart Albuquerque for the Virgin Islands on Tuesday afternoon to participate in the Paradise Jam later this week.

“There are a lot of changes just for this one game,” Alford said, “but I think our guys are prepared.”

New Mexico Daily Lobo

men’s basketball

Midnight limelight: ESPN televises season tip-off

by J.R. Oppenheim

assistantsports@dailylobo.com @JROppenheim

To Lobo hoops fans with early-morning classes on Tuesday: Good luck. It’s going to be a late night.

The time has come for the UNM men’s basketball team to begin its regular season, and that time is 11:59 p.m. tonight.

The Lobos take part in ESPN’s 24-hour long college basketball marathon when they host Davidson at The Pit. UNM against Davidson will be the second of 11 games during the marathon, which includes high-profile matchups such as Michigan State vs. Kansas and Duke vs. Kentucky. Those teams all played in last year’s NCAA tournament, which Kentucky won.

It’s hard to beat that level of national exposure to kick off the season, even at that late hour, said junior guard Kendall Williams.

“It starts with game one, day one. We’re going to take it as that, every game, every second at a time,” Williams said.

“We’ve been practicing late at night, and we’re preparing for a late game and a great opportunity to be on a national stage.”

UNM may not enter the season as highly ranked as Mountain West Conference rivals UNLV or San Diego State, who are rated No. 18 and No. 20, respectively, in The Associated Press Top 25 Poll. The Lobos, however, enter the season as the defending MWC regular-season and tournament champion.

Although conference play doesn’t start until Jan. 9, a grueling nonconference schedule awaits the Lobos, with several rival teams slated among the top 100 in the Rating Percentage Index.

Davidson returned eight players, including all five starters, from last season’s Southern Conference championship squad. Among those returning are their top two scorers.

Junior forward De’Mon Brooks averaged 15.7 points per game in 2011-12, while senior forward Jake Cohen scored 14.3 points per game.

The Southern Conference coaches named Brooks the conference’s preseason player of the year, while Cohen took those honors in the media poll.

UNM head coach Steve Alford called Davidson a potent scoring offense with strong shooting and a solid inside-out presence.

“They really like to play up-tempo,” Alford said. “It’s a school that’s had a lot of good basketball tradition. It makes for a great opener for us.”

Adria Malcolm/ @adriamalcolm / Daily Lobo Senior guard Caroline Durbin, left, and freshman forward Khadijah Shumpert look on as senior forward Deeva Vaughn grabs a loose ball versus Northern Arizona on Friday at The Pit. The Lobos went on to win their regular-season opener 68-57.

Sky Conference Player of the Week Amy Patton, who scored 33 points for Northern Arizona, more than half the team’s total.

UNM threw fresh bodies at Patton all night to wear her out. Sanchez said Patton was difficult to stop because of the step-back, lean-back jumpers she managed to hit.

“You’d think we didn’t play defense on her (Patton). She’s got an unorthodox shot, but it kept on going in,” Sanchez said. “She did get tired, and after a while we just kept putting people on her and denying her the ball.

She almost beat us single-handedly.

That’s a heck of a player.”

The Lumberjacks retook the lead briefly in the second half, when Patton hit a jumper for a 34-33 edge. The Lobos finally took command of the game when freshman point guard Bryce Owens hit a 3-pointer to give

UNM a 54-45 lead with 11:09 left in the game.

Northern Arizona cut the deficit to 65-57 with 26 seconds left in the game, due in part to UNM’s poor freethrow shooting. As a team, the Lobos went 15-30, including junior guard Sara Halasz’s 6-6 performance at the charity stripe.

Halasz took the court for the first time in 961 days and said she missed playing the last two years.

“It was amazing. I hadn’t played in a really long time, but just being back on the court with my team, it just felt great,” she said.

Durbin, Halasz and Shumpert each scored a team-high 13 points to lead UNM. Shumpert also tallied eight rebounds to lead the Lobos, and Owens played a team-high 35 minutes, scoring nine points and making three assists.

Last season, a lack of depth severely limited the UNM women’s basketball team. This season, depth may be one of the Lobos’ strengths.

UNM’s bench outscored Northern Arizona’s bench 31-1 in a 68-57 win at The Pit on Friday night.

Head coach Yvonne Sanchez said the bench play made the difference in the game.

“That’s huge, when your bench gets you 31 points. I used to always tell my bench 20 points or better, but when they give you 31, that’s excellent,” she said. “There are a lot of good things to take from this game.”

Senior guard Caroline Durbin said the bench took a lot of pressure off of the starters.

“It was great. It’s such a big difference from last year for all the returners — that we can shuffle people in and out and keep the energy high,” she said.

The Lumberjacks (0-1) controlled most of the first half and led 28-21 after freshman center Raven Anderson hit a layup with 5:20 left in the half.

But the Lobos responded and ended the first half on a 12-4 run capped by a Durbin jumper to give UNM a 33-32 advantage at halftime.

Freshman forward Khadijah Shumpert said UNM did not anticipate Northern Arizona’s style of play.

“They did actually surprise us.

We ran some of their plays during practice, but during the game they didn’t run any of those plays,” she said. “But in the second half, we were able to figure it out.”

The Lobos’ (1-0) depth also helped slow down the reigning Big

New Mexico Daily Lobo

Year Zero Weekly Horoscopes

by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu

Wear your sneakers, but don’t sneak Capricorn—Try not to take yourself

too seriously at the beginning of this week, as your thinking is none too sharp. This is not to say it’ll be a total waste, as you can make serious progress in terms of reorganization and brainstorming. This is a good time to drum up innovative solutions, but you’ll want to wait until Wednesday or later to put any of them into action. Try to find the humor in life, and this dull time will pass more quickly than you think.

Aquarius—The past couple of weeks have left you anxious, wondering what your next move should or could be. Fortunately, you seem to be moving beyond the belief that you have to act according to a strict set of principles, whether your own creation or somebody else’s. This week is your testing ground for new ways of living. Along the way, expect to encounter plenty of challengers.

Avoid judgment and you stand to come away with some valuable life lessons.

Pisces—I hope you devoted some time and thought to your problems this past week. You know you’re not totally happy, and you want that to change. What keeps happening is that you point your finger at your circumstances, your environment and tend to avoid seeking answers within. Are you doing all you can to create peace and harmony in your life? Being honest with yourself can hurt, but would you feed a loved one a string of lies if you knew it was getting them nowhere?

Aries—These past couple of weeks, you have been like a well, slowly gathering resources and ideas. Because they have been sheltered in your mind or home, you may have been slow to catch on to the real progress you’re making. Be firm about how you want to put these to use, but wait until later this week to put anything into action. Don’t forget this well is not an endless supply, as it will be easy to overexert yourself as the week goes on.

Taurus—It’s

been relatively smooth sailing for you, perhaps with some trouble in the relationship department, but nothing that can’t be smoothed over with some fairness and compromise. Be aware, however, that as the week goes on, you will need to gear up for a heavy workload. Take the steps to properly organize yourself and harmonize your environment so you are totally prepared for this. You will succeed, but you need the proper foundation to do so.

Gemini—Your mind has been uneasy, probably causing you some physical problems as well. Be sure you take care of your health this week, which doesn’t necessarily mean loading up on vitamins. You need to eliminate toxins, mentally and physically, before you’ll be ready to receive vitality. Get this out of the way so that later this week, you’ll be primed for a more demanding, but ultimately rewarding, phase.

Cancer—Have you checked off all items on your to-do list? Even if you’ve tended to all housekeeping matters (which you absolutely must before the day is done), you may be left with the feeling that something is not quite right. Your mind is apt to wander far from petty, everyday affairs. For now, you may be bored and wanting to explore your options. It’s OK to see what else is out there, just try not to commit to anything new until after Nov. 26.

Leo—It has not been your month, and it may not help to know that things will get better by the end of next week. You need relief now?

Do yourself a favor and don’t reach for superficial, Band-Aid solutions to your pain. What’s bothering you runs deeper than that, and it’s essential that you get to the bottom of it.

Write your heart out, as your mind is a chaotic whirl of thoughts. It doesn’t have to be “good,� you just have to get it out all so you can make better sense of it.

Virgo—You’ve got a lot going on in your head these days, and you may be considering some uncharacteristic plans of action. Take a partner with you on any journeys, as he or she will help you make sense of this foggier time in astrology. Mercury’s retrograde motion makes it almost certain that you won’t get much done until Nov. 26, so at least have fun while you’re at it. Do take care of obligations you’ve already committed to, and do not sign up for anything new.

Libra—You’ll enjoy some networking success this week, whether it’s a pleasurable social interaction or charming your boss into granting a special request. It’s tempting to ride with this energy and get a jumpstart on some of the interesting enterprises you’ve been inspired to begin this past week. If you really want any of these to reach their full potential, it’s important to wait until Nov. 26. However, dreaming up and planning these possibilities is highly advisable.

Scorpio—Your head and heart are in the right place, but you may feel like you’re drifting aimlessly. For now, it’s going to be difficult to accelerate your energy levels to the heights you so desire to reach. Be patient, and try not to attribute this to personal flaws, unless they are obviously the cause.

For instance, an indulgent diet or party lifestyle may be getting the best of you. Other than that, do your best to regain strength and take it easy as often as you can.

Sagittarius—You are in the moment of waiting, and the suspense is killing you. It’s not that you’re afraid of what’s next — you should have a pretty good grasp on things, even if your bodily response is telling you otherwise. All I know is you can expect the unexpected. Put planning back in the drawer, take care of commitments and beyond that just do what your heart desires. Fly with the possibilities of the moment, as the future is not a helpful place to dwell.

FOOTBALL

Five point deficit dashes bowl-game dreams

by Thomas Romero-Salas sports@dailylobo.com @ThomasRomeroS

The UNM football team’s bowl aspirations went up in smoke on Saturday.

The Lobos lost a 28-23 heartbreaker to Wyoming at University

Stadium in front of an announced crowd of 17,839.

Senior wide receiver Ty Kirk recorded his first 100-yard receiving game of the year, tallying 108 yards with a touchdown, but he said he’d rather make blocks all game and get the win.

“It hurts. Of course it hurts. But

I’m still going out there these next two games and play 110 percent,” he said. “These are still my teammates and the season’s not over.

We can’t make a bowl game, but these next two games we’re going to play like it’s a bowl game.”

The Lobos (4-7, 1-5 MWC) dominated the Cowboys in

several statistical categories. UNM outgained Wyoming 551-429 in total yards, had 11 more first downs and led in time of possession 38:11 to 21:49.

But UNM once again allowed several big plays to Wyoming in the first half and trailed at halftime 21-7.

Senior wide receiver Lamaar Thomas cries after UNM’s 28-23 loss to Wyoming on Saturday at University Stadium. With the defeat, the Lobos are now out of contention for a bowl bid.

The Lobos’ last two games are against Nevada next Saturday and at Colorado State on Nov. 24. Junior linebacker Dallas Bollema said the team still has a lot to play for, despite not being bowl eligible.

“We’re just going to go out and

MEN’S SOCCER

Shootout settles championship match, Lobos lose

by J.R. Oppenheim

assistantsports@dailylobo.com @JROppenheim Only one Mountain Pacific Sports Federation team beat the UNM men’s soccer team in 2012. That held true all the way through the conference tournament.

Air Force won the MPSF championship in a shootout Sunday, halting UNM’s run to its second straight title before leaving the conference. The Lobos will join Conference USA in 2013.

“It’s disappointing watching them,” UNM head coach Jeremy Fishbein said, referring to the Air Force postgame celebration. “We let the game slip away.”

Despite the loss, UNM (16-3-1) should still earn a berth in the NCAA College Cup with an at-large bid. The Lobos will learn their fate during today’s NCAA Selection Show at 3:30 p.m.

The Falcons (10-8-4) receive the MPSF’s automatic bid to the post-season tournament.

Air Force was the only MPSF team to beat the Lobos in regular-season conference play: a 1-0 overtime decision in Albuquerque and a 2-1 margin at the Air Force academy near Colorado Springs. The Lobos posted 11 shutouts before Sunday’s loss.

Both teams played to a 1-1 tie through regulation and overtime in the tournament. Going first in the shootout, Air Force senior forward Zane Dydasco, senior defender Kevin Rossillon, senior midfielder Kevin Durr and senior defender Jake Jones made the team’s first four penalty shots.

UNM senior midfielder Nik Robson, senior forward Blake Smith and sophomore defender Matthew Gibbons converted their penalty shots, but Michael Calderon’s shot sailed high over the goal.

When Air Force’s Scott McGillivray nailed his final penalty kick, it gave the Falcons an insurmountable 5-3 advantage and the MPSF tournament title.

“The third time’s the charm for us,”
