Lobos will play Fresno State in quarters

by J.R. Oppenheim

assistantsports@dailylobo.com @JROppenheim LAS VEGAS – Fresno State’s Mountain West Basketball Championship first-round game against Air Force resembled its regular-season. The Bulldogs were down early but came back to advance.

Fresno State completed a lategame rally after trailing for much of the game and captured a 61-59 victory over the Falcons Wednesday evening at the Thomas & Mack Center.

The Bulldogs opened the MW schedule losing the first eight games of the MW season but winning eight of its last 10, securing the No. 7 seed in the tournament. Now the Bulldogs will play the second-seeded Lobos in Thursday’s quarterfinal round at 7 p.m. MT. “We’re playing one of the better teams, not only in our league but in the country,” Fresno State head coach Rodney Terry said of the Lobos. “You get a chance to savor this moment for one night, just like you do in conference play. You get a chance to keep it, win or lose, one night, (then) on to the next opponent.”

With the win, Fresno State completed its biggest comeback of the season. Air Force held a 15-point lead at 54-29 with six and a half minutes left in the game before the Bulldogs outscored the Falcons by a 22-3 margin. The Bulldogs benefitted from 13 straight points.

Guard Tyler Johnson hit two 3-pointers to force a tie at 59, and Alex Davis drained the go-ahead free throws in the final 12 seconds. Air Force hit only one field goal over the final 2:28.

Johnson recorded a double-double to lead the Bulldogs, scoring 19 points and pulling down 12 rebounds.

Guard Allen Huddleston added 15 points and forward Alex Davis had 12.

Air Force guard Tre’ Coggins led all scorers with 20 points, followed by guard Max Yon with 15.

“I don’t think anything will be different (against UNM),” Huddleston said. “We’ll approach it the same way.

Aaron Sweet / @AaronCSweet/ Daily Lobo New Mexico forward Merv Lindsay motivates his teammates on the court from the sidelines during the game against San Diego State in San Diego on Saturday. The Lobos will play Fresno State in Las Vegas, Nev. today at 7 p.m.

We’ll watch our film, guard their actions, play defense and defend them, and hopefully put the ball in the hole.”

UNM captured an 89-78 win at Fresno State on Jan. 18 but did not have the return trip to The Pit with the 18-game schedule in place. Now the Bulldogs have less than 24 hours to turn around and play the conference’s regular-season runner-up/defending tournament champion.

“We still have some familiarity in having had a chance to face them the one time,” Terry said. “We were new to this league a year ago, got a great taste of The Pit, those guys twice. Again, they’re one of the best teams in the country, one that knows who they are.”

Utah State 73, Colorado State 69 Much like Fresno State did to Air Force, No. 8 seed Utah State overcame a nine-point deficit in the final minute and a half and advanced to the second round past the ninth-seeded Rams.

The Rams held a 66-57 lead with 2:19 left in the game before the Aggies rattled off a 10-0 run, taking the lead with a 3-pointer and two free throws from forward Spencer Butterfield. He made both foul shots after a technical foul called on Colorado State’s Daniel Bejarano.

Guard Preston Medlin led Utah State in scoring with 17 points. Butterfield and guard

TeNale Roland tallied 14 points apiece.

The Aggies sank 11 3-pointers in the game, with six coming in the second half. TeNale made four of his five shots from long range and Medlin dropped three in five attempt. At the other end Colorado State missed 14 of 17 triples.

Colorado State’s Dwight Smith, in his first start of the season, recorded a game-high 21 points in the loss. Guard Jon Octeus had 19 and forward J.J. Avila had 10.

The Aggies will play top seed and MW regular-season champion San Diego State Thursday at 1 p.m. MT.

Boise State 83, San Jose State 52 The Broncos scored the first 25 points and kept San Jose State scoreless over the first nine minutes en route to the most lopsided win in Mountain West tournament history.

Guard Derrick Marks led the Broncos with 17 points, followed by forward Ryan Watkins with 14 points, guard Thomas Bropleh with 12 points and guard Igor Hadziomerovic with 10 points.

The win puts Boise State into Thursday’s last quarterfinal game against Nevada at 9:30 p.m. MT.

Gov. signs bills for lottery, teachers and water

by John Tyczkowski news@dailylobo.com

The deadline for Gov. Susana Martinez to sign and veto bills that passed during this year’s legislative session has come and gone, and the New Mexico Legislative Lottery Scholarship will remain funded for the next two years.

On Wednesday, Martinez signed into law Senate Bill 347, which would provide money from the general fund to power the scholarship for fiscal year 2015, and funds from the state liquor excise tax to be used for the following fiscal year.

“I’m pleased that a bipartisan solution was reached to protect the lottery scholarship for students currently in their spring semesters, and I believe we’ve begun the process of instituting reforms to the

Inside the

scholarship to ensure that students will be able to receive significant tuition assistance for years to come,” Martinez said in a statement from the Governor’s Office According to the Albuquerque Journal, Martinez used line-item vetoes to strike four wrongly defined terms from the bill, which, if passed, would have resulted in freshman being ineligible for the scholarship.

With Martinez’s signature, the credit-hour requirement of the scholarship is now raised from 12 to 15 credit hours for students at four-year institutions. However, the scholarship’s GPA requirement remains at 2.5.

All higher education students will now receive awards, but the provision introduced by Rep. Jason Harper, R-Albuquerque, which would pro-rate award amounts for

all students in the event of a funding shortage, and could result in partial awards, remains in effect.

State Budget Martinez also signed the state budget into law, but not until after removing $27 million in items from it.

According to the Santa Fe New Mexican, one of the proposed items cut from the state’s budget was $2.4 million which would have provided for both 8 percent pay raises for judges and district attorneys and 3 percent pay raises for appointed government employees.

However, the governor did keep a line item that provided for 3 percent pay raises for all other state employees, including for public school teachers.

“I’m proud that our budget

invests targeted dollars where we need it the most — to support our teachers, help struggling students, improve parental engagement and lift up low-performing schools,” the governor said in a statement from her office.

The largest amount vetoed was $15 million in funding for programs working with at-risk children.

Martinez said in a statement that she vetoed that provision since the funding wouldn’t be needed until next year, when the programs would enter into effect.

Capital Outlay UNM’s main campus will receive a 3.1 percent increase in capital outlay funding for fiscal year 2015 as part of the $6.15 billion package Martinez signed into law on Tuesday, according to UNM Today. That

amount includes 1.5 percent pay increases for higher education employees, which comprise 62 percent of UNM’s workforce.

Also included is a 1.1 percent increase in funding for the Health Sciences Center.

Statewide, that same capital outlay bill also includes $89 million in funding for water infrastructure projects. According to the bill, these projects include funding for repairing watersheds, fixing dams, water purification projects and creating backup water supplies for communities at risk of losing access to primary water supplies.

“When we invest in our water infrastructure, we invest in New Mexico’s economic future,” Martinez said in a press release from the Governor’s Office. “And that’s an investment worth fighting for.”

Theft at Zimmerman

Despite signs at Zimmerman Library warning students about the possibility of property thefts, numbers of such incidents in the area have been stable for the past year.

There were 18 cases of reported larceny at Zimmerman in 2013, according to a list of reports compiled by the UNM Police Department. Seven of the cases occurred during August through December with the other 11 were reported in January through July. There were 16 reported thefts last year and 13 in the fall of 2011. Pierse Griggs, a security guard at Zimmerman Library, said theft at the library is more of a seasonal occurrence, with most incidents happening at the beginning of the semester because of freshmen who are unaware of the possibility of theft.

Water and Energy in New Mexico

A University professor is hosting weekly talks about water and energy in New Mexico.

Caroline Scruggs, an assistant professor for the School of Architecture and Planning, said the lectures complement a class she teaches on the same subject. She said the lectures intend to bring in different perspectives about issues that the state faces regarding water and energy. While the lectures are part of her class, Scruggs said she opened the lectures to the public in order to garner more perspective, to help inform the community and to create discussion about controversial topics. She said about 10 to 30 people from the general public show up to each lecture.

“Part of the goal is to bring all the perspectives into the discussion,” she said.

Laura McCarthy, the director of conservation programs for The Nature Conservancy, will speak at this week’s lecture on Thursday at 5:15 p.m. in Pearl Hall, room P104. Lectures are held at the same time and place each week. They are free and open to the public.

Gary Johnson Talk

Women’s History Month

Former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson spoke Tuesday about the process of running for president as a third-party candidate.

Johnson ran in the presidential election in 2012 as a candidate from the Libertarian Party. The former governor won almost 1.2 million votes during election, or about 1.2 percent of the total popular presidential vote, according to United Press International.

Voters in 48 states were able to vote for Johnson to be the next president, as he was denied ballot positions in Michigan and Oklahoma, according to the article. The UNM event was held at the UNM Continuing Education building on Tuesday afternoon.

The Oscher Lifelong Learning Institute hosted the event.

UNM’s Department of History will host events to celebrate this year’s Women’s History Month. The department is working with Women’s Studies and the Feminist Research Institute to celebrate Women’s History Month. Earlier this month, professors from the history department spoke about women’s roles in history. The department hosted a showing of the film titled “Audre Lorde: The Berlin Years, 1984-1992” in Dane Smith Hall on Wednesday. Jordan Biro will present a lecture about lesbian liberation in the 1970s through the 1980s at 12:30 p.m. in the Student Union Building, and there will be more presentations on women’s history on March 31 at noon in the History Department Common Room.

NYC gas leak explosion kills 3, injures 60

by Jake Pearson and Jonathan Lemire The Associated Press

NEW YORK — A gas leak triggered an earthshaking explosion that flattened two apartment buildings on Wednesday, killing at least three people, injuring more than 60 and leaving nine missing. A tenant said residents had complained repeatedly in recent weeks about “unbearable” gas smells.

By evening, rescue workers finally began the search for victims amid

the broken bricks, splintered wood and mangled metal after firefighters spent most of the day dousing the flames. Heavy equipment, including backhoes and a bulldozer, arrived to clear the mountain of debris where the two five-story East Harlem buildings stood. Floodlights were in place.

Thermal imaging cameras were at the ready to identify heat spots — bodies or pockets of fire.

The recovery was facing hardship in the form of the weather, which was expected to drop into the 20s with

rain. Some parts of the debris pile were inaccessible because of a sinkhole caused by a subsurface water main break, officials said.

The fiery blast, on Park Avenue at 116th Street, not far from the edge of Central Park, erupted about 9:30 a.m., around 15 minutes after a neighboring resident reported smelling gas, authorities said. The Con Edison utility said it immediately sent workers to check out the report, but they didn’t arrive until it was too late.

“It felt like an earthquake had rattled my whole building,” said Waldemar Infante, a porter who was working in a basement nearby.

“There were glass shards everywhere on the ground, and all the stores had their windows blown out.”

Hunter College identified one of the people killed in the blast as

At least three of the injured were children; one, a 15-year-old boy, was reported in critical condition with burns, broken bones and internal injuries. Most of the other victims’ injuries were minor and included cuts and scrapes.

Fire officials said some people were unaccounted for but cautioned they may not have been in the buildings.

A tenant in one of the destroyed buildings, Ruben Borrero, said residents had complained to the landlord about smelling gas as recently as Tuesday.

A few weeks ago, Borrero said, city fire officials were called about the odor, which he said was so bad that a tenant on the top floor broke open the door to the roof for ventilation.

“It was unbearable,” said Borrero, who lived in a second-floor apartment with his mother and sister, who were away at the time of the explosion.

“You walk in the front door and you want to turn around and walk directly out.”

The fire department said a check of its records found no instances in the past month in which tenants of the two buildings reported gas odors or leaks.

Jennifer Salas lived in one of the buildings. She told The New York Times her husband, Jordy Salas, and her dog were in the building at the time of the collapse and were missing.

“There’s six floors in the building; each floor has one apartment,” she

said. “Last night it smelled like gas, but then the smell vanished and we all went to sleep.”

Edward Foppiano, a Con Ed senior vice president, said there was only one gas odor complaint on record with the utility from either address, and it was last May, at the building next door to Borrero’s. It was a small leak in customer piping and was fixed, he said.

The block was last checked on Feb. 28 as part of a regular leak survey, and no problems were detected, Foppiano said.

One of the side-by-side buildings had a piano store on the first floor, the other a storefront church.

City records show that the building Borrero lived in was owned by Kaoru Muramatsu, proprietor of the piano business. A phone number listed for Muramatsu rang unanswered.

Records at the Department of Housing Preservation and Development indicate the agency responded to complaints from a tenant and cited Muramatsu in January for a broken outlet, broken plaster, bars over a fire escape, a missing window guard and missing carbon monoxide and smoke detectors.

City building records don’t show any work in progress at either address, but the building owned by the Spanish Christian Church had obtained permits and installed 120 feet of gas pipe last June.

Con Ed said it remains to be seen whether the leak was in a company main or in customer-installed inside

plumbing. The gas main that serves the area was made of plastic and cast iron, and the iron dated to 1887, Foppiano said.

“Age is not in and of itself an issue with cast iron,” he said, noting that Con Edison has a cast iron replacement program and the pipe was not slated to be removed in the next three-year period.

A National Transportation Safety Board team arrived in the evening to investigate. The agency investigates pipeline accidents in addition to transportation disasters.

NTSB team member Robert Sumwalt said investigators would be looking at how Con Edison handles reports of gas odors and issues with the pipe and would be constructing a timeline of events.

#Relationship Status A weekly column about the modern search for love at UNM.

by Josh Dolin

You say potato, I say homosexual

@JoshuaDolin

There are so many things in life that I will never understand. Curb-side check-in at the airport, people who don’t drink Starbucks and most contact sports are just a few of them.

But one thing that has been bothering me recently is trying to decipher men’s sexual orientation on campus. Sure he has a “gay boy” body, but he is also surrounded by fraternity brothers. Or what if he is wearing short shorts, but also has a girlfriend? Or maybe he is in skinny jeans, but I see him going to a youth ministry. What does it all mean?

Cinderella dreamed of Prince Charming.

Most girls and gay men dream of the same thing, but the modern-day equivalent would be an athletic man who has the perfect amount of muscles and intelligence to allow for meaningful conversations and a decent amount of eye-candy.

Most of my secret lovers are not (confirmed) gay, but last weekend I finally got closer to a conclusion with one of them.

There I was, knee-deep in my own selfloathing after finishing a dozen donuts with Collette when Ryan sent me a snapchat.

Ryan is a few years older than me and we met when I was a freshman. We are “friends,” but I got that certain vibe from him. I was attracted to him, but always assumed he was straight.

To my surprise the snapchat included a picture of him rubbing his shirtless chest accompanying the words “Oh Joshy,” written on the picture.

So of course my first reaction was to take a screenshot and yell, “Hold up, homegirl!”

This means Ryan is gay, right? Why else would he send me a sexting snapchat? Or was this just a joke? Straight guys do that with each other, don’t they?

This was not the first time Ryan has hinted at his homosexual curiosity. In the past there had been some questionable touching at parties, but I wasn’t quite sure what he meant by it.

I decided to solve this mystery by sending him back a snapchat, but then he stopped responding. So what the hell does this mean?

“It means that Ryan is so gay,” Maggie said the following morning. “I always called it.”

Our generation likes to understand people, especially their sexual orientation. But that isn’t the only thing about guys that can be confusing.

Dating is essentially one giant mystery that we have to solve. Are they interested in me? Are they only using me for sex? Are they lying about their past relationships?

Aurora has been trying to solve the same mystery as me, but with her secret lover at Starbucks.

“Every time I get coffee he always compliments me, but I can’t decide if he is gay, or into me,” Aurora said. “He remembers the dresses that I wear, but now he has a girlfriend.

So I guess he is straight and in a relationship.

Typical.”

Maggie has recently been trying to figure out if a boy she is seeing thinks she’s funny.

“Well, Jake came over for popcorn and movies last night,” Maggie said. “And my first reaction around guys is to make jokes and puns, but I couldn’t tell if he

Editorial Board Antonio Sanchez Editor-in-chief

John Tyczkowski Managing editor Opinion editor

Ardee Napolitano News editor

actually thought I was funny, or if he just wanted to get into my pants.”

Similarly, Ashley has simply been trying to decide what her new boy wants from her.

“So this guy will text me ask to hang out all the time,” Ashley said. “But then at parties he will talk to other girls. He will come over to me, so I think he is interested, but I don’t think he wants a relationship.”

“Then what are you going to do with him?”

I asked.

“Honestly, I don’t know,” Ashley said. “He is super hot, but I don’t really like spending time with him because of his personality. If we could just go out in public together so it looks like we are dating, and he will let me touch his abs, I think that would be the ideal situation.”

When you start dating a new guy, every thing you do with them is a clue to solving the ultimate mystery, which is: will you still like him once you know everything about him?

Even though Alice has been dating Bill for more than a year, she still worries about the secrets she has yet to uncover about him.

“Men’s sex life will always be a mystery,” Alice said. “I worry about it all the time and try to figure it out because there is so much that I don’t know.”

Collette disagrees with the rest of us. She believes that men will tell her the important things and the rest just isn’t worth worrying about.

“Everyone has secrets, and people should be allowed a few,” she said. “I believe in second chances because people mess up and it’s their past and not my business to know about.”

The biggest mystery of all to solve, however, is just finding out if a guy is interested in you.

A few days ago my friend Britney and I went to Satellite for some evening coffee, which immediately turned into man-stalking after I saw one of my secret lovers. And this one is a confirmed homosexual!

“That’s him!” I whispered while Britney was at the register. “That’s Derek!”

Once Derek and I made eye contact it was time to increase my laughter a few decibels and attract as much attention as possible — a skill I was naturally born with.

Derek talked to his friend while I talked to Britney, but we each would occasionally look around to see if the other was looking.

“When he walks by, should I drop my keys or spill coffee on him or something?”

Britney asked. “Just to break the ice.”

Before she had the chance Derek walked out of Satellite, but not without making both Britney and I wonder if he had been having the same conversation with his friend about me.

Why does our attraction to other people have to be such a mysterious game?

Why can’t I just go up to Derek and say, “Hey, I think you’re really hot. Want to hang out and potentially have sex sometime soon?”

We can spend a lifetime trying to solve the mysteries of men, but we will never have an answer. They are a simple species, but every single one of them is different.

Some are generous, honest, intelligent and truthful, and some are lying assholes.

Some will make excellent husbands and fathers, and some will hurt you.

In order to know more about men, we have to date them and put clues together to solve the mystery about who they are. Do all men purposely make this puzzle harder to solve, or are we just looking too far into this? And what if they solve the mystery about us before we can learn enough about them? Will dating always be a mystery? Or is it possible that we all can just fall in love with someone and #GetAClue?

Conservatives gather at anti-abortion meet

by Phillip Elliott

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Invoking fiery references to Satan, “savagery” and a “culture of death” to criticize their opponents, anti-abortion lawmakers on Wednesday insisted that Republican contenders keep an intense focus on social issues in the upcoming midterm elections and the 2016 presidential race.

Like many abortion opponents, the Susan B. Anthony List is in search of a White House contender who won’t shy from social issues after back-to-back presidential nominees in 2008 and 2012 who focused their campaigns on the economy and came up short. Several potential 2016 candidates were making their pitches in blunt terms, urging the group members to stick to their principles and fight those who would stand in their way.

Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, said those who support abortion rights favor a “culture of death” and engage in “savagery.”

Sen. Ted Cruz, a Texas Republican who is a favorite of the tea party, reminded the crowd of activists that supporters of abortion rights chanted “Hail, Satan” to silence their enemies during a heated protest at the Texas Capitol.

Thursday 3/13 Applebee’s Get rewarded for giving $10 Bonus Card when you purchase a $50 Gift Card

And former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, a Southern Baptist minister who ran for president in 2008 and is considering a 2016 campaign, said conservatives must work to “save every life that we can save.”

In the 2014 campaign for the Senate, Republican hopeful Greg Brannon of North Carolina stood by his previous claims that pro-abortion rights groups contemplate infanticide. Brannon, an obstetrician backed by several tea party groups, said that killing babies who survived abortions could happen in America, according to a video posted by Mother Jones magazine.

The unflinching rhetoric comes as the potential 2016 presidential contenders attempt to make inroads with the GOP’s socially conservative wing.

That bloc — which enjoys outsized influence in deciding the nominee — is open to many of the potential White House candidates but has yet to rally behind one of them.

In a Washington Post-ABC News poll published this month, 50 percent of conservative Republicans and 46 percent of white evangelical Protestants said they would consider voting for Cruz. Huckabee drew potential support among 50 percent of conservatives and 44 percent of evangelicals.

Other candidates who did not speak to the abortion summit fared

about as well. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, hardly a social warrior, drew potential consideration of 45 percent of conservative Republicans and 40 percent of evangelicals. And Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., would be considered by 52 percent of conservative Republicans and 43 percent of evangelicals.

The key for these voters is backing a 2016 candidate who opposes abortion.

“One of the biggest prizes in 2016 will be who picks the next Supreme Court judges,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. “Wouldn’t it be wonderful to win the White House in 2016, undo Obamacare, put America on a different path and have a president who defends little babies?”

But Graham acknowledged it will be tough.

“We are having problems growing the Republican Party in a demographically changing America,” Graham said.

Keeping quiet on abortion won’t help the GOP, he said.

“We’re going to win this argument but it’s going to take some time,” he said.

Huckabee, who drew support from social conservatives during his 2008 White House bid, said he wants Republicans to win, but not if that means compromising their values.

AP Photo Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas speaks at the Susan B. Anthony List “Campaign for Life Gala and Summit”, a gathering of anti-abortion advocates, in Washington Wednesday.

“Whether it’s politically expedient or not is of no consequence to me,” Huckabee said. “If we get this issue wrong, we will get all the other issues wrong.”

The political debate over abortion shows no signs of being resolved, more than 40 years after the Supreme Court legalized the procedure in the case of Roe vs. Wade. Young people today are somewhat more conservative on the issue than middle-aged Americans but the nation is split on the deeply personal issue.

To help candidates who oppose abortion, Susan B. Anthony List’s super PAC plans to spend around $10 million this election.

Abortion rights supporters, Cruz argued, are ruthless and won’t be easy to sway.

Cruz said that at the rally outside the Texas Capitol, abortion rights protesters walked “arm-in-arm, chanting ‘Hail, Satan,’ embracing the right to take the life of a late-term child.”

R I G H T Deep scars up and down Antonia Sarvis’ arms are a reminder of what she survived and the people she wants to help in the future.

Antonia Sarvis dismantled a pink ladies’ shaving razor and pressed the blade into her skin. She did this over and over.

The scars from a years-long internal battle that cover the arms and legs of sophomore psychology major Sarvis don’t bother her anymore, she said she embraces the reminder of what she survived.

“I had suffered abuse in my life. I didn’t really fit in at school, I got picked on a lot, there was a lot of family turmoil and I felt very isolated and I guess I was just trying – I don’t really know,” she said.

Jon Cottrell said he too is no stranger to the struggles that lead some to consider selfharm, which is why he organized the Semicolon Tattoo Project.

The Semicolon Project is an annual event to raise awareness about suicide and selfharm, he said. Now in its second year, participating tattoo parlors offer semicolon tattoos to supporters, and then donate half of the money to Agora Crisis Center. The other half of the money goes to the tattoo artist, not the parlor, he said.

“The imagery is based around this idea that your life is a sentence. An author can end a sentence with a period, but they chose not to, they used a semicolon and carried on in the same vein, they joined clauses. They gave pause, but they carried on,” Cottrell said. “It’s a symbol of strength, it’s a symbol of pushing forward in the face of adversity.”

Spoken word artist Zachary Kluckman, recited an original poem about addiction while receiving his semicolon tattoo at an awareness event late last month. Kluckman has been sober for 14 years, but still vividly remembers struggling with his demons.

He said the semicolon project helps him to never forget the dark places he came from.

He said he felt his experiences also help him connect to others going through similar tough times.

“Its been a really powerful tool to go in there and say, ‘Hey look, I get it.’ I come to you and say, ‘You know, I speak the language. I speak blood and fire and flame and bone, so let’s do this, lets be real.’ I’ve seen a lot of ugliness watching other people go through the fire,” Kluckman said.

Angelia Santistevan has been a licensed tattoo artist for five years and is one of the many volunteer artists for this event.

“This was a cause we were not fully aware of the first time it came through last year. I

had heard of the Agora Crisis Center before the event, and I thought it was really good that the project benefitted it,” she said.

Santistevan said around 160 people showed up for last year’s event, and this year it has spread out to several shops around Albuquerque.

Jenn Brown, the outreach coordinator at Agora Crisis Center, said her life had been touched by suicide and that any project that brings the subject into the light is worth supporting. Brown said nationwide, 15 percent of graduate students and 18 percent of undergraduate students considered attempting suicide at some time in their lives.

The most striking feature of the Semicolon Project is that the tattoo makes a visual statement of support and a great conversation starter about self-harm and suicide, she said.

“Even when you’re looking at college campuses that have free or low-cost mental health care, suicide is still an issue. We‘re constantly trying to look at and see why people aren’t reaching out. I think a lot it comes back to stigma, people still not knowing how to access the help,” she said.

Sarvis, who plans to counsel people who have self-harm urges after she graduates, said she had only recently heard of the Semicolon Project and thought it was a great way to show support to people struggling with suicidal feelings. She said she had been afraid to ask for help and hopes that this project will make others feel brave.

“I have a lot of people when they do see my scars sometimes become alarmed. A lot of them will say a lot of insensitive things and they can be kind of hurtful. It’s really good to know that there is an organization out there showing support and awareness for these sorts of issues,” she said.

She said she hopes the project helps others to understand how to help people with thoughts of suicide or self-harm.

“A lot of times people are ashamed to talk about them or let people know they have had problems and still are,” she said. “I think it’s really helpful to have someone you can trust and someone you can tell hey, I’m feeling suicidal, or I’m feeling like I don’t belong here.

Someone you can tell that to and they won’t immediately just freak out on you. Someone who will hear you out and listen and keep an eye out for you without making you feel like you’re wrong for feeling that way.”

Frida Salazar / Daily Lobo Artist Mike “Giant” Lesage autographs a fan’s book at McDuffie Park on Sunday. Lesage is known internationally for his Sharpie art and helped create REBEL 8 clothing and apparel in 2003.

by Erika Eddy

culture@dailylobo.com A line of about 100 people stood before a man with thick-framed glasses and tattoos from knuckles to jaw.

Internationally famed artist Mike “Giant” Lesage came home to Albuquerque to hundreds of supportive friends and excited fans on Sunday.

Known around the world for his Sharpie art, Lesage wears the role of local hero humbly, and took time to speak with each person who came to the impromptu homecoming party at McDuffie Park.

“Not too many people in popular culture rep ’Burque like I do, so it feels great to get that love back from the locals,” he said.

Cameron Crow, a UNM graduate and Sharpie artist, said he came to the party meet a fellow artist he admires.

“We’re proud that Giant is from here and that someone could take influences from our culture. He definitely represents a part of Albuquerque culture,” he said.

Lesage said his distinct artistic style of graphic black and white Sharpie illustrations, unique lettering and large wall pieces has roots to his childhood in Albuquerque —

skateboarding, the thriving hip-hop scene, punk rock music and flyers.

“I must have leaked gallons of blood on Albuquerque’s ditches over the years,” he said. “I skated them every single day until I moved to San Francisco in 1993.”

The first thing Lesage said inspired him, for better or for worse, was the Albuquerque gang scene. He stood out as a tall white kid from upstate New York and said he was the target of almost daily beatings from the neighborhood kids.

He said he noticed early on that the only people his attackers respected, their older brothers, cousins and fathers, had fine-line black and grey tattoos. He said that those tattoos made a huge impression on him, physically, emotionally and visually.

“I covered myself in tattoos like those worn by my oppressors, somehow negating the bad associations they had and playing up the good,” he said. “I’m quite proud to rep them on my arms now. When I travel around the world people always ask me about my tattoos and it gives me an opportunity to vocalize my love for New Mexico again and again.”

Lesage said he began writing graffiti in Albuquerque in 1989, when two veteran graffiti artists took him under their wings.

“They taught me all the ins and outs of the international graffiti scene,” he said. “We found places all over Albuquerque to practice our vocation.”

Lesage and his business partner, Josh “Joshy” D, created REBEL 8 clothing and apparel in 2003, according to the company website. References to New Mexican culture are frequently found in Lesage’s clothing line – from cholas with ‘Burque’ and Zia symbol tattoos to Catholic imagery.

D, who came to visit Albuquerque with Lesage, said he finds inspiration through the stories Lesage tells about life in New Mexico.

“We went to UNM today and (Lesage) points to the architecture building, he points to the dorm room where he lost his virginity,” he said.

“We got a chance to hear all the stories. That is what I can pull from Albuquerque inspirationally as much as anything else.”

Lesage said his years spent in Albuquerque were vastly influential to him, both personally and artistically.

“New Mexico is such a huge part of who I am, as a man, and artist and an American,” he said. “I can’t imagine life without it.”

‘Elf ’ language used to express beauty

by Neethi Baskaran

culture@dailylobo.com Calvary Zender attends classes, spends time with his friends and plays Half-Life 2 on the weekends. But unlike most students, he spends every other Monday discussing J.R.R. Tolkien’s “Lord of the Rings” trilogy.

Zender, a junior linguistics major, is the president of the UNM Hobbit Society, a discussion group for all things Tolkienian, but especially of the fictional language Quenya.

The language of Tolkien’s elves is the most fully developed of several languages created for his fantasy world, said Leslie Donovan, the group’s adviser.

“It’s also very beautiful, if you hear it spoken,” she said.

Quenya takes inspiration from Welsh, Finnish and other world languages and blends them into what Tolkien considered a beautiful language, said Zender, who has been teaching Quenya workshops on campus this semester.

“Tolkien formed Quenya on the basis that he believed Great Britain didn’t have a proper mythology, and he wanted to make a creation story of their own,” Zender said.

Zender said he has been leading workshops on campus to teach interested students the fictional language.

“Quenya is a direct reflection of how Tolkien believed language, in its pure form, began.

He believed language had a pure form and that it was born out of a desire to express beauty in one’s surroundings. As he wrote it, the elves created Quenya to express what they felt about the world around them — it was primarily created to express love for your spouse, and for the trees, and for what you see around you,” Zender said.

Donovan said many of the students who attended the workshop did so out of love for Tolkien’s world.

“People get involved because they love the books. They love the characters, they love the ideas of fellowship, the idea that the littlest people can make a big difference,” she said. “The themes of friendship, those themes of battling against impossible odds, of doing the right thing even if you think you’re gonna die doing it — those things matter to people.”

Zender said that “Lord of the Rings” in general, and Quenya in particular, are important and relevant to modern popular culture.

“Lord of the Rings is relevant today, regardless of the fact that it reflects World War II and Tolkien’s opinions on industrialization, even though it’s difficult to read, because it’s relatable. It resonates with the human struggle,” he said. “It laid the groundwork for high fantasy as we know it. It’s the reason video games like The Elder Scrolls exist.”
