University funds security increase UNM unsure of how this will affect other budgets by John Tyczkowski and Ardee Napolitano news@dailylobo.com

Marisa Silva, president of the Graduate and Professional Student Association, said it’s difficult for a university to tighten its security while tightening its budget. Silva said UNM’s budget makes it hard for the University to organize safety initiatives. She said the budget recommendation the Legislative Finance Committee is considering will put UNM at a 16 percent budget shortfall and will affect the University’s safety operations. “As long as we’re scrambling to keep the lights on, it’s going to be difficult to fund other initiatives for safety of students,” she said. “Safety is not a luxury — it is something that we can demand.” On Jan. 27, two men allegedly grabbed a female UNM student while she was jogging at Johnson Field, held her down and groped her under her clothes. On Feb. 4, a man allegedly groped a female UNM student over her clothes outside Castetter Hall. Silva attended Friday’s forum

held to address the cases of on-campus sexual assault during the past two weeks. Representatives from various University bodies, such as Residence Life, the office of the dean of students and the Women’s Resource Center, suggested and asked for possible solutions to the problem. Silva asked students to contact their legislators to urge them to provide more funding for UNM. In the wake of the first groping incident, officials said the University increased police presence on campus and allocated more money to security efforts, but no one could say how many more officers were on patrol at a given time or how much money was put into security. Prior to the reports of groping, there were three UNMPD officers on patrol per shift. But UNMPD Chief Kathy Guimond was unable to provide details on how much staffing had been increased, if shifts had been changed and exactly what additional steps had been taken, citing tactical considerations. “(The additional staffing) varies by the day of the week and by the shift of the day,” Guimond said in a phone interview Friday afternoon. UNM President Bob Frank also said UNM took money out of its allotted budget to fund this increase in campus security, but he was unable

Sergio Jiménez / Daily Lobo Psychology major Sheryl Brooks looks on as members of the public addressed UNM staff members at the public safety forum Friday. The forum was in response to two recent sexual assault incidents on campus. Brooks asked the panel why no UNMPD representatives were present at the forum and how the University would prevent further attacks. to provide exact numbers. UNM is in the middle of its budgeting process for the next fiscal year. This includes allocating money to all departments and programs while dealing with a $60 million cut in the University’s budget the past three years. Even so, Frank said he is

confident UNM will be able to respond effectively to the calls for improved campus safety following the sexual assaults. “We’re a tightly knit community,” Frank said. “This affects us all and all of us can help.” Audience members at Friday’s forum had questions for UNMPD,

but no UNMPD representatives were present at the event. During a phone interview Saturday, UNMPD Public Information Officer Lt. Robert Haarhues said the police were not asked to attend the forum.

Chavez unseen in 2 months Venezuelan leader left Dec. 10 to seek medical treatment in Cuba by Jorge Rueda

The Associated Press CARACAS, Venezuela — Two months have passed since Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez climbed the stairs of the presidential jet, blew kisses to his supporters and flew to Cuba to undergo his fourth cancer-related surgery. Chavez hasn’t been seen or spoken publicly since that departure to Havana on Dec. 10, and the mystery surrounding his condition has deepened while the government’s updates have remained optimistic but have lately offered few specifics. “The president is in charge and making decisions,” Foreign Minister Elias Jaua said Saturday after meeting with Brazil’s foreign minister. “It’s a slow, slow recovery process. But he is fighting his battle with great faith, and clinging to Christ and clinging to life … and with the conviction that he is going to win this battle, too.” Jaua, who visited Chavez in Cuba last week, said the 58-year-old president has been making political and economic decisions. On Friday, for instance, the government announced it is devaluing the currency. Confidants including Jaua have recently said the president has overcome complications including a severe respiratory infection following his Dec. 11 surgery for recurrent cancer in his pelvic region. Vice President Nicolas Maduro, whom Chavez named as his potential successor before the surgery, has said that the president should be able to return home once his

condition permits it. When that might be remains unclear, and the long silence of a leader who used to speak on television almost every day has led many Venezuelans to wonder why he is unable to say at least a few words to the country by phone. Some analysts say they expect that sooner or later, Chavez’s delicate health could make necessary a new election to replace him. “The transition has already begun in Venezuela, and the election campaign has also begun,” said Tulio Hernandez, a sociologist and professor at the Central University of Venezuela. “The transition has also begun in people’s heads. Sometimes, there are mistakes among government spokespeople, who start to speak of Chavez in the past tense.” Maduro and National Assembly President Diosdado Cabello have recently led street demonstrations where supporters have rallied around the president chanting his name and holding photos of him. If Chavez were to die or step down from the presidency, a new presidential vote would be called within 30 days. The long silence has left many Venezuelans, including both supporters and detractors of the president, on edge amid rumors and speculation. “Whether we wanted to or not, it used to be inevitable to hear him, see him, talk about him,” said Emilia Torres, a university student who supports the opposition. “Now he’s disappeared. We haven’t seen him in a long time. We don’t even know if he’s really OK or not.” Chavez has undergone several cancer treatments in Cuba since June 2011, including surgeries, chemotherapy and radiation treatment. He hasn’t revealed the type of cancer or the exact location where tumors

During previous stints in Cuba, Chavez regularly kept in contact through phone calls broadcast on television and messages on Twitter. Now, those messages have been replaced by updates given by his Cabinet ministers. The updates recently have been given less frequently, while government officials say Chavez’s condition has slowly improved. “I want them to tell us the truth. I don’t want to keep seeing ministers saying that El Comandante sends us regards,” said Lenin Colmenares, a street vendor who sells posters and photos with images of Chavez. “I hope El Comandante himself will be the one

to say it. Why doesn’t he?” Colmenares said he hopes the president will be able to return. He also said none of the other officials in his socialist movement can compare to the charismatic leader. “I’m for the revolutionary process, but if I support another one (within Chavez’s movement) it’s only because El Comandante asked for it,” Colmenares said. “That man is unique.” Chavez, who counts 19th century independence leader Simon Bolivar and former Cuban leader Fidel Castro among his leading influences, first took office in 1999 and was re-elected to a new six-year

Rio Rancho police force understaffed

SANTA FE — Democratic lawmakers are proposing legislation they say will expand protections against wage discrimination based on gender. Rep. Brian Egolf, a Santa Fe Democrat, said Monday the proposal is modeled after a 2009 federal pay-equity law. The state legislation would allow New Mexicans to file lawsuits for wage discrimination in a state court rather than having to go to federal court. The New Mexico Human Rights Act prohibits discrimination based on someone’s gender, but Egolf said the proposed legislation will help ensure that women are paid the same wages as men for equal work. Under the proposal, a worker bringing a wage discrimination claim could receive punitive damages as well as unpaid wages from the date of the violation to the time when the lawsuit was filed.

‘Breaking Bad’ actor gets APS board seat An actor from the TV show “Breaking Bad” has won a seat on Albuquerque’s school board. Steven Michael Quezada plays federal drug agent Steven Gomez on the Albuquerque-based show. He was running unopposed Tuesday for a seat on the city’s west side District 5. There’s no incumbent in that district, and Quezada was the only candidate to file for the position. Three of Quezada’s four children attend the Public Academy for the Performing Arts, a charter school where the actor has been active on the governing board. The AMC hit television series is finishing filming its fifth and final season. “Breaking Bad” follows former high school teacher Walter White, played by Bryan Cranston, producing and selling methamphetamine with a former student, Jesse Pinkman, played by Aaron Paul.

NM eyes 10 a.m. liquor on Sundays SANTA FE — New Mexicans could buy liquor earlier on Sundays at restaurants and bars under a proposal by Democratic and Republican lawmakers. Liquor sales could start at 10 a.m. rather than noon under measures sponsored by Albuquerque Republican Sen. John Ryan and House Majority Whip Antonio “Moe” Maestas. Proponents say the law should be changed to allow restaurants to offer drinks during a Sunday brunch and for bars to sell liquor when televised

SANTA FE — The House has unanimously approved a measure to prohibit welfare recipients from using their electronic benefit cards to make purchases or cash withdrawals at liquor stores, bars, casinos, strip clubs and other adult entertainment businesses. Rep. Nate Gentry, an Albuquerque Republican, said Wednesday the legislation is needed to comply with federal requirements and the state could lose $5 million in federal aid if the restrictions aren’t enacted. Welfare-to-work program recipients receive cards similar to a debit card for the amount of their cash assistance. The cards can be used at ATMs or at retailers. The Human Services Department has identified $44,000 in transactions last year at businesses covered by the proposed ban. New Mexico currently prohibits use of benefit cards at tribal casinos but not at horse racing track casinos.

ABQ movie-friendly ranking down again Albuquerque’s standing on a new list of cities ranked for their suitability to host film productions is down. MovieMaker Magazine ranks Albuquerque No. 8 on its 2013 list of top 10 cities. That’s a steep slide from Albuquerque’s No. 1 ranking in 2010 and its second-place standing in 2011 and third place in 2012. However, city film liaison Ann Lerner says it’s a good thing that Albuquerque still places on the magazine’s top-10 list. According to the Albuquerque Journal, MovieMaker considers such factors as cost of living, income levels, housing rates, employment opportunities and overall quality of life. Other factors include financial incentives, access to talent, ease of shooting and studio space.

Rep. seeks to lessen marijuana penalties SANTA FE — An Albuquerque lawmaker proposes lessening penalties for possession of marijuana in New Mexico. Democratic Rep. Emily Kane, who is a firefighter, introduced a measure Thursday to impose civil penalty fines on adults convicted a first time of possessing up to four ounces of marijuana. Possible jail time would be eliminated for having up to eight ounces. It’s a petty misdemeanor currently to have up to an ounce of marijuana. That’s punishable by six months in jail. It’s a misdemeanor — with up to a year in jail — to possess more than an ounce and up to a half pound. Democratic Sen. Gerald Ortiz y Pino of Albuquerque is proposing to have a state agency study marijuana legalization, including how much money would be collected if New Mexico taxed it.

Santa Fe collects 225 guns at buyback SANTA FE — The city of Santa Fe bought about 225 guns at its second no-questions-asked gun buyback event. The Santa Fe New Mexican reports that would-be gun sellers formed a line at a police building before Saturday’s event began. Within four hours of the sale beginning, police ran out of gift cards to pay sellers with and had to issue rain checks. Authorities purchased 194 guns at the city of Santa Fe’s first gun buyback event in January. The buyback program was approved late last year in the wake of the school shooting in Newtown, Conn. The city is planning a third gun buy-back event on March 9.

out against a federal proposal for critical habitat for the rare cat in Arizona and New Mexico. The Arizona Daily Star reports that Alan Rabinowitz says the plan lacks scientific credibility and is unsupported by data. He made the remarks in recent comments submitted to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service on the jaguar habitat proposal. Rabinowitz is founder and CEO of the global, New York City-based wildcat conservation group known as Panthera. In August, federal wildlife officials proposed designating more than 1,300 square miles in New Mexico and Arizona as critical habitat for the jaguar. The rare cat was placed on the federal endangered species list in 1997.

Rio Rancho’s police chief says he believes his department is in a crisis and cannot adequately respond to calls for help. Chief Robert Boone says the department of the Albuquerque suburb doesn’t have enough officers and that many of its police cars are worn out. Boone also tells the Albuquerque Journal in a story published Monday that Rio Rancho’s pay scales for police officers aren’t high enough to compete with nearby jurisdictions. Mayor Tom Swisstack is calling for a study to assess the department’s manpower. Several City Council members are calling for more spending on public safety.

Many confessions are disturbing, and I hope UNM administrators look into 12% some of the more troubling posts. “UNM Memes” has some serious competition for most entertaining UNM 9% Facebook page. They’re entertaining, but come on, a lot 56% have to be made up or embellished. What a useful learning tool! I would never have thought to lie in an essay 3% to win a scholarship. I hope one way or another the page is shut down. It gives UNM a bad name, 21% or at least a worse one. Out of 34 responses

THIS WEEK’S POLL:

UNMPD reported two incidents of groping in the last couple of weeks. What do you think about this? More disturbing than the assaults is the amount of time it took UNMPD to get information out. What good is an alert a day after the fact? I have been more vigilant while walking around campus. I’ve always been vigilant on campus; incidents like this don’t surprise me. I’m afraid to walk around campus, even now that I’m taking the proper precautions. Who knows what will happen next and to whom?

Tedious tall-tale tirade is totally over the top Editor’s note: This is in response to the column “Tall tales tell us something terrible about our nation,” published in Thursday’s Daily Lobo. In the column, Jason Stafford uses tall-tale characters to create a satire of the American dream. Mr. Stafford, I appreciated your elucidating lecture on American folktales in the Thursday edition of the Daily Lobo. Your insight into the way these tall tales shaped the country of today was eye-opening, to say the least. I especially enjoyed your explanation of my recurring dream; you know, the one in which I’m “floating down a river, drinking cheap liquor and shooting randomly at anything that moves.” It’s reassuring to know that this is the “echoed vision of America.” Here I thought I was a monster for having such dreams. And if I thought that was bad, I felt even worse for wanting to punch Johnny Appleseed every time I thought about his story. Needless to say, your generalizations of American history, opinion and current state of affairs were completely off base. Sure you’re entitled to your opinion, that is one of the great things about this country, but please do us all a favor and don’t try to pass this off as the “story of America.” To clarify for your benefit in the future, these are stories of or from America. It may do you some good to go by Thoreau’s advice and not “stretch the seams in putting on the coat,” because you, sir, stretched the seams to the point of breaking with this column. Leonard Perez UNM staff

LETTERS Don’t rely on Wikipedia when writing a paper Editor’s note: This is in response to “Show me how to write a paper the day before it’s due,” published in Thursday’s Daily Lobo. I am writing in response to John Tyczkowski’s article, ”How to write a paper the day before it’s due.” While I understand that last-minute writing is sometimes a necessary evil, John’s advice is terrible. As a grad student and an instructor, I can tell you that relying on Wikipedia, quoting sources you have not adequately evaluated and depending on spell-check to proofread for you will more often than not result in an undesirable grade. It’s always better to do your own research and find ways to work with what you have. First, Wikipedia is not a reliable source. Wikipedia is constantly in progress and relies on a stream of nonprofessional input; as such, it remains a decent place to seek out further lines of inquiry, but fails as a fount of knowledge. It is usually apparent when students have used Wikipedia as a source for research. Second, using Wikipedia as a source to mine for “expert citations” will likely result in your professor wondering how on Earth you managed to find and read random and diverse articles on the topic at hand, and put them on guard regarding the rest of your evidence. Moreover, including a quote from a text makes you responsible for having read and understood the entire text, and so leaves you in the position to account for pieces of that text you might not address and that may disagree with your thesis. It is rare that a quote used on Wikipedia communicates the gist of an entire text; these quotes are handpicked by the author of the Wiki page. Finally, do not rely upon your word processing software for spell-check and grammar corrections. I cannot tell you how many errors are due to auto-correct features that insert a word the user never intended to include. If anything, you should always proofread to make sure spell-check hasn’t created errors. That said, John is spot on regarding thesis statements. My advice in a pinch: Create a realistic thesis (one you can back up with limited resources), come up with three points you can reasonably use to

support it in a short amount of time and do your best. Resist the urge to move quickly; write slowly and proofread each sentence as you go. Take deep breaths and remember to move around once an hour to keep your creative juices flowing. Jennifer Gammage UNM faculty

Men can stop rape by condemning misogyny Editor, In response to the recent groping incidents on UNM campus, UNM President Robert G. Frank and UNMPD Police Chief Kathy Guimond released the following guidelines to prevent such future incidents: • Be aware of your surroundings at all times. For example, do not wear earphones when walking or engage in other behaviors that may distract you from your environment. • Walk with a trusted friend whenever possible. • Attempt to walk in well-lit, high-traffic areas. • Keep dorm, apartment and car doors locked. • Immediately report suspicious behavior to police. Police would rather respond to a tip that turns out to be easily explained than be notified after a crime has occurred. While the administration should be applauded for not ignoring the issue, this list suffers from a lack that also exists in public discourse at large about sexual violence toward women: it provides directives to women for avoiding sexual assault, but no directives to men not to be assailants. Rape, along with related crimes, is a serious issue. Yet our public discourse generally only addresses women, telling them how to avoid rape. It does not say to men, “Don’t be a rapist,” or even advise them how to help reduce and avoid sexual violence in our culture. Think about it. There were two people involved in the most recent groping incident. And what do we get? A list of things the female survivor could have done, but nothing about the male assailant. That’s insulting to everyone. So, that’s the first purpose of this letter to

the editor, to say this to men: Don’t be rapists. Don’t grope women. Don’t date rape. Don’t get girls drunk and take advantage of them. Don’t try to coerce women into sex. These are not the actions of men; they are the actions of cowards. Don’t be a coward. We can’t stop rape and sexual violence just by telling women what to do. We have to help men learn how to act, how to avoid becoming rapists themselves and how to become allies with women against this culture of violence. My second purpose here is to issue a call to action. Earlier this year, I contacted a national anti-rape activist organization called Men Can Stop Rape (MenCanStopRape.org) to discuss the possibility of starting a chapter on UNM campus. Unfortunately the initial training cost of $15,000 might be prohibitive, but we need to do something, even if we just start a grass-roots organization on campus. We need another voice on campus, a voice that can counter demands toward women to avoid being raped with demands that men not be rapists, and suggest how man can help stop rape. So, if you are interested in taking an active part in an anti-rape organization directed at men, contact me at Doug@unm.edu and we’ll see if we can get something started.

Bacon lovers pig out in Iowa ‘I love bacon more than I love my job’

by Barbara Rodriguez The Associated Press

DES MOINES, Iowa — The smell of bacon was in the air Saturday as thousands converged on Iowa’s capital city for an increasingly popular festival celebrating all things connected with the meat. Some people wore Viking hats and others walked around with makeshift snouts for the Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival. The annual event featured more than 10,000 pounds of bacon served in unusual ways, such as chocolate-dipped bacon and baconflavored cupcakes and gelato. “I love bacon more than I love my job,� said Katie Nordquist, who was dressed in a tuxedo T-shirt that looked like bacon Saturday for her first time at the festival. And there was a lot of bacon to choose from. The smell of unique concoctions like bacon gumbo

and chocolate bacon bourbon tarts wafted through one of two buildings at the Iowa State Fairgrounds. The other building had an Iceland theme, with a Viking boat and Icelandic dishes with bacon, to honor a group of delegates visiting from the country. Urbandale resident Mike Vogel showed up for a fourth year wearing a head-to-toe bacon costume. He said a widespread love for bacon is the reason about 8,000 tickets to the event sold out in just over three minutes. “I think it’s the right time of year when everybody’s been cooped up,� said the 39-year-old videographer. “It’s a good time to get out, have some fun, try some new stuff, have a few beers and enjoy yourselves with everybody else.� Other events scheduled included lectures about bacon and an eating competition. The festival was preceded earlier in the week with a bacon queen

Now chefs from across the state and country use it in everything from vegetable dishes to desserts. “It’s come a long way and you can find it in almost any kind of food or beverage offering,� she said. Festival co-founder Brooks Reynolds, who officially started the event just a few years ago, said it’s become the largest bacon showcase in the world. He called the event a “bacon fellowship.� “They can just bond with their fellow man and just celebrate the meat that everybody enjoys,� he said.

Minnesota moose herd shrinking, hunting called off by Steve Karnowski The Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS — Minnesota canceled its moose hunting season Wednesday, citing a precipitous decline in the moose population, as researchers try to get a handle on why the iconic symbol of the north woods appears to be faring worse here than elsewhere across its range. The population has dropped 35 percent over the past year and 52 percent since 2010 to an estimated 2,760 moose left in northeastern Minnesota, according to the annual aerial survey conducted by the Department of Natural Resources in January. Minnesota’s moose numbers were estimated as high as 8,840 in 2006. “So it’s just a plummeting population here,” DNR Commissioner Tom Landwehr told reporters. While moose might not die out completely in Minnesota, the population could be too small well before 2020 to accurately estimate, said Steve Merchant, the DNR’s wildlife populations and regulations manager. He noted the big drop in just the past year. “That’s a steep slope, and it comes down to that — very few animals left, very shortly,” Merchant said. Researchers are conducting studies to better understand why moose are dying out in Minnesota. Scientists suspect some combination of higher temperatures, parasites, diseases, contact with deer and changes in forests in northeastern Minnesota. A separate moose herd in northwestern Minnesota is now so tiny that the DNR no longer conducts surveys there. DNR officials said it isn’t clear why moose are struggling more in some places than others. New England has a much larger moose population and the range there may be expanding, although numbers may be declining in some northeastern states. The population appears to be holding its own or growing in parts of North Dakota. But some Rocky Mountain states are experiencing declines. While Canada’s moose population remains large, it’s been falling across the border in Ontario. While the decline in Minnesota seems precipitous compared to those elsewhere,

James Ramsay / The Daily Journal In this 2004 file photo, a young bull moose crosses the road in Otter Tail County, Minnesota. Minnesota announced Wednesday, Feb. 5, 2013 that it has canceled the state’s 2013 and future moose hunting seasons citing a precipitous decline in the moose population. Lou Cornicelli, the DNR’s wildlife research manager, said the state keeps better population data than others so it’s hard to say whether that’s the case or how populations elsewhere are actually faring. While Landwehr reiterated some scientists’ opinion that Minnesota’s small, bulls-only hunt has not been a factor in the population decline, he said it was prudent to suspend the hunt in light of the new data and the animals’ uncertain future. State officials said they won’t reopen hunting unless the population recovers. Landwehr also said the DNR talking to the state’s three Ojibwe bands about whether they’ll continue their moose hunts, which they’re entitled to do by treaty. The Fond du Lac, Grand Portage and Bois Forte bands killed a combined 36

moose last year. “We don’t anticipate there will be a biological impact from that,” Landwehr said. “It’s going to be up to the tribes how to proceed.” The DNR late last month launched a $1.2 million multi-year effort to capture and put tracking collars on 100 adult moose and 50 calves, and implant instruments in the digestive tracts of 27 of those adult moose to let researchers know when they die. The researchers hope to be able to get to those carcasses within 24 hours, before wolves and other scavengers make it impossible to determine the cause of death. Lou Cornicelli, the DNR’s wildlife research manager, said 91 adult moose had collars by Wednesday and 100 should have them by Friday or Saturday. The calves will

be collared after they’re born this spring. Data from previous studies suggest that predation by wolves and bears has only a small effect on the adult moose population. Cornicelli said researchers hope to learn more from the new study about how predation affects calf survival rates. Opposition to the moose hunt had been building in recent weeks. Three state senators introduced a bill Tuesday to impose a temporary moratorium on the moose season. The owner of an outfitting service at the end of the Gunflint Trail, in Minnesota’s prime moose country, started an online petition drive last month to stop the hunt. It has collected over 700 signatures.

‘I think we should be top 10’ Lobos eager to exceed expectations after being ranked No. 21 in preseason poll

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

Congratulate

For the first time in UNM’s history, the Lobo baseball team has been ranked in Baseball America’s preseason poll, coming in at No. 21. But junior first baseman DJ Peterson, a preseason AllAmerican, said the Lobos are ranked low given the amount of talent they have. Senior catcher Mitch Garver and sophomore outfielder Ryan Padilla were also named preseason All-Americans. “We should be ranked a little bit higher — I think we should be top 10,” Peterson said. “I think we have a lot of high-profile names and a lot of big arms, and at the end of the season we’ll prove that. Our expectations are to go to Omaha. I think if we didn’t (have those expectations) we’d be cutting ourselves short.” Omaha, Neb., hosts the final round of the NCAA tournament. Head coach Ray Birmingham said he shares Peterson’s sentiments. “DJ came to me and goes, ‘Coach, as the years goes on, 21 is going to be a slap to the face.’ That’s

how strongly he feels about this program, and I agree with him,” he said. “We’re not shooting for anything but to be the last man standing one day.” Senior Alex Allbritton, who was All-Mountain West first team last season, said the nation is finally showing respect to the Lobos. “It’s somewhat of an honor, but at this point it really means nothing,” he said. “We appreciate the fact there are people who respect us and our talent.” The Lobos lost nine players from last year’s MWC championship squad, including six pitchers. Birmingham said the biggest loss was Austin House, who was selected in the 14th round of the MLB Draft by the Oakland Athletics. House led last season’s squad with 111 2/3 innings pitched, three complete games, two shutouts and a 2.74 ERA, and he struck out 91 batters to earn All-Mountain West first team honors. “Losing Austin was a big deal; if he had come back for his senior year, I think I’d be talking more smack,” Birmingham said. “We have good enough arms to get it done, but a proven veteran on Friday night is what we’re lacking.”

UNM’s top returning pitchers are junior Josh Walker and seniors Hobie McClain, Sam Wolff and Will Mathis. Birmingham said the Lobos are missing a true ace, but he thinks Wolff can be that guy. Last season, Wolff posted a 1-2 record, a 5.52 ERA and threw 24 strikes. “If Sam Wolff could figure it out, I think he’s getting there,” Birmingham said. “He’s just a hair away from being there and if he could locate (throw the ball exactly where he intends), that’s the difference.” Due to conference realignment, UNM lost bitter rival No. 14 TCU to the Big 12. In return, the Lobos get to battle Fresno State and Nevada. The Bulldogs are coming off consecutive WAC tournament championships and NCAA tournament appearances. The Wolf Pack earned a share of the WAC regular-season championship by finishing in a three-way tie with Sacramento State and New Mexico State. “We lose TCU, one of the topfive teams in the country the last five years,” Birmingham said. “But we get Fresno State and Nevada, who are comparable, even-steven teams; it’s still a good solid league.”

Sports briefs Track and field

New Mexico athletes had a busy weekend with three indoor meets in two cities. On Friday, UNM hosted the Don Kirby Elite Invitational at the Albuquerque Convention Center. UNM turned out strong performances across multiple events. In the 800-meter run, Alex Herring finished in first place, Gabe Aragon in second and JP Cordova in fifth. Vincent Montoya took fourth place in the 3,000 meters, Ridge Jones took eighth in the 60 meters, Kendall Spencer took fourth in the long jump, Logan Pflibsen won first place in the pole vault and Floyd Ross finished fourth in the triple jump. The Lobos also had 19 top-10 finishes at the Don Kirby Open held Saturday at the convention center. In Seattle on Friday, several UNM runners competed at the Husky Classic. Josephine Moultrie and Luke Caldwell posted school-record times, clocking 4 minutes, 36.59 seconds in the mile and 13:40.39 in the 5,000 meters, respectively.

Skiing

After two weekends of competition, UNM scored 794 points to place fourth at its home skiing invitational in Red River, N.M. Colorado won the event with 864 points, while

Utah was second with 851 and Denver took third with 808. Montana State, Alaska Anchorage, Westminster, Wyoming and Colorado Mountain College rounded out the field. One week after the Nordic competition, the alpine skiers were on the slopes. Mateja Robnik and Joonas Rasanen had UNM’s best slalom times. On the women’s side, Robnik clocked 1:39.71 on Saturday and 1:35.59 on Sunday. For the men, Rasanen posted 1:35.03 on Saturday and 1:34.95 on Sunday.

Softball

UNM lost its first seven games after a tough season-opening stretch starting Thursday. The Lobos dropped five games at the Kajikawa Classic hosted by Arizona State Thursday through Saturday with a 5-1 loss to Creighton, a 3-0 setback to Arizona State, a 3-2 decision to Cal Poly, a 9-0 margin to San Jose State and an 11-1 loss to Oklahoma. On Sunday, UNM played two games at the Hotel Encanto Invitational in Las Cruces. The Lobos fell to Nebraska 11-0 before losing to host New Mexico State 3-0. ~compiled by J.R. Oppenheim

In this Jan. 29 photo, Beitar Jerusalem F.C. soccer supporters watch a State Cup soccer match against Maccabi Umm al-Fahm F.C. at the Teddy Stadium in Jerusalem. Beitar has long tried to quell a tight-knit group that calls itself “La Familia” and whose behavior has had the team docked points and forced it to play before empty stadiums. The group is routinely abusive toward opposing players, taunting them with racist and anti-Arab chants.

by Aron Heller

The Associated Press JERUSALEM — Under heavy security, a Muslim soccer player whose signing with a Jerusalem club sparked a violent uprising by a hard-core group of racist fans made his much anticipated debut Sunday to a rousing ovation. Hundreds of police deployed around Beitar Jerusalem’s stadium, two days after a suspicious fire believed to be set by angry fans destroyed the team’s main offices. Tensions remained high as the team faced off against Bnei Sakhnin, an Arab team whose fans have clashed before with Beitar’s. But the thousands of fans and foes who flooded to Teddy Stadium presented a show of strength against a rising tide of racism among Israeli soccer fans. “I came today to show that not all Beitar fans are punks and racists,” said Yair Sina, a 49-year-old lifelong Beitar fan. “I won’t let them take away my love for the team.” The fire, which destroyed historic trophies and mementos, marked the height of a violent campaign by fans upset with the team for signing two Muslim players from Chechnya. But in contrast to the previous taunts and jeers directed at the players, the crowd of thousands erupted into a rousing standing ovation when Gabriel Kadiev, a 19-year-old defender recently brought over from FC

UNLV’s shooting wasn’t much better at 37.1 percent from the field, but it benefited from strong 3-point shooting in the first half. The Runnin’ Rebels made seven first-half triples, finishing with nine for the game. Guard Katin Reinhardt made four treys; guard Bryce Dejean-Jones added another three. UNLV forward Anthony Bennett shot 17 points to share the game-high total with Kirk. Bennett also pulled down 12 rebounds for UNLV. Reinhardt and Dejean-Jones each netted

Terek Grozny, entered the game in the 80th minute. Every time he touched the ball the crowd cheered wildly, mostly drowning out a smattering of boos. The trend continued when, a few minutes later, Beiter scored a late goal to secure a 2-2 tie. Kadiev’s Chechen teammate, 23-year-old Zaur Sadayev, was injured and not included in the team lineup. The goodwill was felt throughout the stadium with banners reading “Violence and racism? Not on our field” and fliers explaining the sensitivity of the game and beseeching the fans to behave. Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said more than 500 policemen were deployed inside and outside the stadium to prevent disturbances. Officers were on horseback, and others escorted the Sakhnin players into the field to make sure they were safe. “It is now clear to any reasonable person in the country where racism can lead. I came here to strengthen Beitar in their battle against racism,” said Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat, one of several dignitaries at the game. “This is a historic process and it is clear that what was once cannot be again.” Beitar has long tried to contain a tightly knit fan group called “La Familia” whose behavior has had the team docked points and forced it to play before empty stadiums. The group is routinely abusive toward opposing players,

Page 16 points, and guard Anthony Marshall scored 11 points. The teams committed a combined 24 turnovers: UNM with 13 and UNLV with 11. “We were coming off a very tough two-game road trip, and our guys were disappointed, frustrated (and) mad; but more than anything we were determined,” UNLV head coach Dave Rice told the AP. “We understood the challenge of playing against a terrific New Mexico team and as a program we took that challenge.” Despite the loss, UNM

taunting them with racist and anti-Arab chants. But only after the signing of the Chechens did a full-fledged confrontation erupt between the Beitar fans and team management. At the first game after the move, fans unfurled large banners with racist undertones, such as one that read “Beitar pure forever.” When the team refused to back down, the fans turned abusive and began cursing and spitting at players and management. Most of the ire has been directed toward general manager Itzik Kornfein, a former Beitar goalkeeping great who has spoken out forcefully against racism. “La Familia” members often curse at him outside team practices and some have even attempted to attack him physically. Following Friday’s firebombing attack, Kornfein said he feared for his life. Four members of the group were charged with anti-Muslim chanting and most were prevented from entering the game. “La Familia” was created in 2005, and it quickly became the team’s loudest and most visible supporter. The fans routinely wave huge flags of the outlawed, racist Kach party and chant racist slogans toward Arab players. Their behavior has drawn a cascade of condemnations from Israel’s president on down. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opened his weekly Cabinet meeting on Sunday with a call for fans to reject racism.

Weekly Horoscopes by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu

Makes no difference who you are Capricorn—The last couple of weeks have given you the opportunity to experience situations and people who aren’t quite right for you. This brought your mind back to what you truly desire, and now you’re more ready than ever to go after it. If you have no idea how to proceed, don’t think the mission is hopeless. It’s likely you just need to spend more time with yourself. Get to know the person you’re becoming. Aquarius—The theme of the next couple of weeks is exploration. Search far and wide, even if you aren’t sure exactly what you’re looking for. Truly, you may reach a clear end point, where everything comes together in an “aha” moment. The journey itself is most important, especially the points at which you are able to socialize. Be careful not to get so carried away with friends that you stop exploring. Dig as deep as you can. Pisces—Matters will be clearer to you next week when the sun transitions to your sign. Until then, you’ll be feeling the world sending you a cool breeze. This air keeps you alert and upright, doing what you need to without getting sloppy. Balance out this detached mental state with some TLC. It’s important in the next few weeks that you take care of yourself, the way you might a newborn. You’re in a delicate position, so treat yourself with regard to such. Aries—Think twice before making serious commitments for a while, as your world is increasingly idealized for the next several weeks. This time is best for selfreflection, something you could stand to make a daily habit. If your impulsiveness gets to you over and over, find out what it is you’re trying to solve. Your methods are wrong, which is more damaging than anything. Try subtle tactics. Diplomacy will get you far this week.

Taurus—This week, spend time testing your limits and getting a clear idea of what you’re capable of. It’s time for you to stop making assumptions and saying, “I can’t,” or “It won’t work.” Keep your thoughts blindingly sunny, and if you fail, make a note of what went wrong and avoid that mistake in the future. Take a more systematic approach to your goals, and you will make great advances in the coming weeks. Gemini—For the next couple of weeks, pretend as if your mind is an almighty tool with which you can make all your dreams come true. If you will it, so it shall be. Don’t tailor your dreams to what you think is possible. Do you know what you would do if anything was possible? This is the mentality with which you should be operating. Trust that you can execute what you desire most, without the help of magic or miracles. Cancer—Give yourself permission to let go and live a little over the next couple of weeks. You need to let the wind of your soul flow freely. If you are successful in this great personal challenge, you’ll enjoy a series of pleasant surprises. You may think you know what you’re capable of, but the truth is these beliefs are more limiting than anything at this time. Forget the what-ifs and prepare to be awestruck. Leo—Prepare for a surge of creativity over the next few weeks. Have writing implements on hand at all times, particularly in the bathroom to capture shower inspiration and other passing thoughts. You won’t act on all of these, but it’s important you recognize the awesomeness that flows through you. If you encourage this river of creative expression to flow freely, you’ll enjoy some especially juicy fruits in the coming weeks. Virgo—This past week,

you’ve been riding a fence, trying to decide where you stand. You want to join in the fun and carefree spirit of one side, but on the other hand you have always taken a stand against the behavior you’re considering. This week, get a taste of both sides and see if you can’t live a hybrid lifestyle. You don’t have to be a staunch supporter of either side. Just sample what you want and make yourself your own role model. Libra—This week, your top priority should be freeing up your time by delegating tasks. This doesn’t mean doing a half-elbow job of fulfilling responsibilities, and the cosmos are not encouraging laziness. Just free up space in your schedule wherever you can so your mind can breath. You have some great advances to make, but for this to happen, you must enlist the help of your people. Also, fresh ideas will abound wherever group interaction is involved. Scorpio—You won’t like hearing this, but you’re going to have to climb out of your rut quickly. The cosmos are particularly receptive, so don’t be afraid of this vulnerable new position. If you want to be treated gently — considering your delicate condition as you venture on this new path — then you’ll have to treat others the same. By the full moon on the 25th, you’ll feel like a new person for better or worse, depending on how you’ve treated others. Sagittarius—In D.H. Lawrence’s “Women in Love,” there is a memorable scene in which a man escapes the doldrums of a highsociety gathering by stripping in the woods and rolling around in the grass. I imagine your life to be a similar abandonment of propriety in the coming weeks. You need to be free, and for once nobody is going to stop you or frown upon you for doing so. Let your wild child out of the playpen.

Double drubbing Neck and neck until the bitter end, UNLV defeats UNM by one point, winning 58-57

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

Despite a stagnant offense down the stretch, the UNM women’s basketball team still had one last chance to knock off UNLV. With six seconds remaining, freshman point guard Bryce Owens let loose a jumper from 10 feet, but the ball clanked off the front side of the rim. UNLV sophomore guard Briana Charles then grabbed the rebound and dribbled out the clock to give the Rebels a 58-57 victory over the Lobos at The Pit on Saturday. Head coach Yvonne Sanchez said Owens’ last-second attempt was rushed. “I think Bryce was a little bit surprised that she was so wide open. People should’ve been trailing her and they didn’t, in some respect,” Sanchez said. “The kid tried to make a play and I’m not going to fault her for that.” The Lobos’ offense disappeared in the final five minutes, going 1 of 10 from the field. Sanchez said the team’s shot selection was questionable because players were taking more difficult attempts than they needed to. “I thought we had open shots, but people wanted to create something different,” she said. “We had looks, but for whatever reason they dismissed those looks and went into the heart of the defense.” UNM got ahead 55-49 after junior forward Deeva Vaughn hit a jumper with 5:16 left in the game. UNLV’s senior guard Kelli Thompson answered with back-to-back 3-pointers to tie the game at 55. The Rebels then took the lead again when freshman center Amie Callaway hit 1 of 2 free throws to give UNLV a 56-55 edge with 3:28 remaining. Freshman post Whitney Johnson responded with a layup to bring UNM up to 57 points with 1:36 to go. The Rebels (9-14, 5-4 MWC) regained the lead when Thompson hit

Sergio Jiménez / Daily Lobo Junior forward Deeva Vaughn is helped up during the second half of Saturday’s game versus UNLV at The Pit. After two straight wins, the Lobos lost 58-57 against UNLV. two free throws after getting fouled, going up to 58-57 with 11 seconds in the game. Owens then launched her off-the-mark last-second attempt. The Lobos outscored the Rebels in points in the paint (38-12), second chance (15-5), bench points (11-6) and fast break (10-4). At the free-throw line, UNLV made 13 of 16 attempts, compared to UNM’s 4 of 6 effort. Sanchez said nobody on the squad has the ability to get to the

charity stripe regularly. “The problem is, and it’s been our Achilles’ heel all year long, we’re not getting to the free-throw line,” she said. “We don’t have kids right now that can create and get there, and our posts are doing a nice job, but they’re young in some respects and they’re just not getting those fouls.” Thompson came into the contest averaging 18.2 points per game to pace the MWC. Against the Lobos,

Thompson managed 29 points on 7 of 24 shooting and grabbed eight boards. Sanchez said Thompson hurt the Lobos (12-10, 4-5) mostly by getting to the charity stripe where she went 10 of 11. “We put her to the line too much and I knew she wasn’t going to miss,” Sanchez said. “Thompson is a good player and if you let her take advantage of your missed opportunities and your defensive assignments,

she’s going to.” For the game, UNM shot 38.5 percent (25-65), compared to UNLV’s 30.5 percent (18-59). The Rebels were far better from beyond the arc, hitting 42.9 percent (9-21), while the Lobos hit 16.7 percent (3-18). UNM outrebounded UNLV 43-39. Johnson had a team-high 12 points, and senior guard Caroline Durbin finished second with 10 points but 4 of 13 shooting.

Competing against a team desperate for a win, the No. 15 New Mexico men’s basketball team couldn’t maintain the three-game stretch of hot shooting. The Lobos made just 33.9 percent of their shots Saturday night at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nev., resulting in a 64-55 loss to UNLV. The defeat snaps a three-game win streak for UNM (20-4, 7-2 MWC), which shot 48.1 percent and higher against Wyoming, Nevada and Air Force. “We had a very bad shooting night,” UNM head coach Steve Alford told the Associated Press. “A lot of that had to do with shot selection … I thought we did a good job getting back into it.” UNM never led against UNLV. In the first half, the Lobos trailed 37-23 and made nine field goals out of 30 attempts. They made 12 second-half baskets on 32 shots. The team’s top two scorers, junior guards Kendall Williams and Tony Snell, combined for 11 points. Williams, who averages the most points per game, hit only one field goal in nine attempts. Snell was 3 of 10 from the field.

UNM’s 3-point shooting also dropped to 18.2 percent, making two triples in each half. That mark is lower than the 43.1 percent average clip the team hit from the 3-point line over the last three games. The team has hit 22 of its 51 attempted 3-pointers in its last three road contests. Alex Kirk and Cameron Bairstow reached double-figure scoring for UNM, continuing their streak of success. Kirk, a sophomore guard, posted his sixth career double-double with 17 points and 16 rebounds, both game highs. Junior forward Bairstow added 13 points and six rebounds. UNM also outscored UNLV 32-24 in points in the paint. Although Kirk and Bairstow combined to make 12 of 22 field goals, Kirk acknowledged the team’s lackluster effort. “We didn’t shoot as well as we usually do,” he told the AP. “We didn’t hit a lot of open shots and we took some tough ones as well.” UNLV (18-6, 5-4 MWC) entered the game following a five-point loss to Boise State and a nine-point setback to Fresno State. It is the only time this season the Runnin’ Rebels had lost two in a row.
