OVER THE BAR
with ASUNM vice presidential candidates by Ardee Napolitano news@dailylobo.com
This week, undergraduates can vote for student government representatives from the “Unite for ASUNM,” “Believe for ASUNM” and “Shout for ASUNM” slates in the ASUNM elections. Read up on the vicepresidential candidates and their platforms today before casting your ballots Wednesday. See Friday’s edition of the Daily Lobo for a Q-and-A with the presidential candidates. Daily Lobo: If elected, on what principles would you model your vice presidency? David Saucier, “Unite for ASUNM”: The key principles that I intend to base this vice presidency are openness to our organizations, accountability for our senators and myself, and transparency in all processes of our business. Brandon Meyers, “Believe for ASUNM”: The first is hard work. I think the best Senate is one that is trying to do everything they can to not only reach out to the students but also write great legislation. The second one is accountability. There are a lot of responsibilities in the ASUNM Constitution that may seem burdensome to people, and I want to make sure senators are held accountable to those. Third and fourth are integrity and honesty in trying to hold true to your values as an individual but also representing your constituent base. Nancy Martinez, “Shout for ASUNM”: If elected, I would want to work with the senators and the presidents to bring equality, even with senators that have been elected from other slates. I would love to cooperate with them to bring more equality and diversity on campus. DL: After months of debate, the SUB Board finally decided in February to keep Chick-fil-A on campus. Would you work to support or refute this decision? DS: I recognize the controversy behind this situation, but I think that Chick-Fil-A offers jobs to students. I know the students that work at Chick-Fil-A to be kind and accepting of all people. BM: As a senator, I was in sup-

port of the ASUNM resolution. I wanted to support the minority in this scenario. My personal stance is that I love moving forward. I’ve talked with Amy Vesper of the UNM Social Justice Club, and I like the progress that she and (ASUNM) President (Caroline) Muraida have made in drafting policies that are for all vendors that come into the SUB so that we don’t get into these sticky situations again. NM: I think it’s ultimately not up to me, but to the students, so I would work with them and see what they want. Eventually, it’s everyone’s decision. My personal opinion didn’t really matter, but after all, I was against it just because of how it was directed. DL: Earlier in this semester, the University witnessed various cases of assaults on campus that prompted safety initiatives from the administration. If elected, how do you plan to make the campus safer for students? DS: One of the proposed solutions to this would be either to install more lighting around campus or even to provide an indoor running track to those of us who like to run during the night. Past that, I believe prevention is the best way to go. I think that we should form forums to help discuss some of the risks specific to certain locations and how they can be avoided. I would also ask the UNM police officers to come in and talk and give their take on things at these forums. BM: I don’t have all the answers. In this situation I would be looking to get input and opinion about how I should represent my constituents best. I was told that (UNMPD) has opened up a student position for someone to walk around campus during the night and making sure everything’s OK. A lot of what UNMPD does is in their cars patrolling the streets. But often it happens right here where there’s no streets. That makes sense, and it would be cool if we had students as neighborhood watch. NM: I would definitely bring up more lighting and increase security, because those issues should never even be tolerated. Being a girl, I think I’m afraid of walking around campus. And I would increase the lighting

Martinez approves 1% pay raise Governor signs bill raising salaries of all state employees
by John Tyczkowski news@dailylobo.com
Gov. Susana Martinez on Friday signed a bill that allows for a 1 percent pay increase for UNM faculty and staff. The governor had until noon on Friday to sign, veto or do nothing with bills passed through the Legislature this session. Martinez signed the $5.9 billion state budget proposal Friday, which included several line-item vetoes. However, the 1-percent pay increase for state employees, including UNM faculty and staff, remained, as did the 3.5 percent increase in funding for UNM. It has been four years since the last faculty and staff pay raise at UNM.
Martinez also signed into law the bill that proposed diverting $10 million from the tobacco settlement permanent fund into the Lottery Scholarship to prevent cuts to student tuition assistance. This will cover current scholarship recipients and the projected number to receive the scholarship for the 2013-14 school year. Martinez said in a statement that she signed the bill as a shortterm measure while the search for a permanent solution to Lottery Scholarship solvency continues. “So, although I am signing this bill, I encourage lawmakers to work together to restructure the lottery program so we can maintain solvency and so the program is sustainable without a continued infusion of other state funds,” Martinez said.
A capital outlay bill saw $4.4 million in projects spending vetoed before the governor signed it into law. The vetoes included $125,000 in projects spending out of a total of $10.1 million in projects spending for UNM. Martinez also signed a tax package that included the so-called “Breaking Bad bill,” which was vetoed last month then integrated into this tax package. The “Breaking Bad bill” provision expands tax incentives for television crews filming long-running television shows in New Mexico. According to the bill, tax refunds for television crews are increased from 25 percent to 30 percent of a producer’s total qualified spending amount. The overall tax package focuses

Student published in ‘Nature’ by Astrid Galvan
The Albuquerque Journal Scott Jasechko used his road trip from Canada to Albuquerque, where he was about to start a graduate program at UNM, to gather water samples. Less than two years later, his study of those water samples has landed him in Nature, the prestigious science journal. Jasechko is the lead author of “Terrestrial Water Fluxes Dominated by Transpiration,” a study that found plants use a vast amount of fresh water in their life cycles, which can help predict future climate change effects on water resources. That Jasechko, a doctoral candidate in Earth and Planetary Sciences, was published in Nature is “absolutely huge” and “quite remarkable,” study co-author Peter Fawcett said. Fawcett, a UNM associate professor, helped supervise Jasechko, along with second co-author Zach Sharp, also a UNM professor. They worked with three scientists from Alberta Innovates, a Canadian research institution. Fawcett said he can’t recall any other graduate student in his 16 years
ASUNM
or so at UNM who was lead author on a study in Nature. The study is “really significant because it tells us that if we actually change vegetation in a significant way, we can really alter the flux of water from the surface to the atmosphere,” Fawcett said. Jasechko, a Canada native, began collecting samples in summer 2011 when he was driving down from Canada to Albuquerque. He took water from the Great Lakes, Lake Mead, Yellowstone and Jackson lakes, Lake Winnipeg and Elephant Butte on his drive down. Later, Jasechko compared those samples to others gathered by scientists around the world. In total, he analyzed water from 73 lakes to find that the amount of fresh water that plants use during their life cycles accounts for the biggest movement of fresh water on Earth. The amount of fresh water plants use is more than 1 1/2 times the movement of water in all of Earth’s rivers, Jasechko found. The findings are groundbreaking in that, until now, there was no distinction between the amount of water that comes from evaporation and the
amount produced by plants. But high carbon levels reduce the amount of water plants release. Therefore, increased carbon levels in a warmer climate could affect water availability, Jasechko said. “Where we’d like to take these results now is to explain how vegetation will change in a future warmer climate and what implications that will have for future fresh water resources,” Jasechko said. “This research poses new questions and insights into how future fresh water resources will respond to a warmer and carbon-enriched atmosphere.” Jasechko, who expects to complete his Ph.D. next year, submitted the article to Nature last fall. Its publication comes after a rigourous months-long peer-review process. Jasechko said the study would not have been possible without a grant from the Caswell Silver Foundation or his mentors, Sharp and Fawcett. “I think the research really shows how important funding graduate students really is for the University,” Jasechko said.

because I have noticed that in some areas on campus, it gets dark. DL: There has been much discussion about whether the Athletics Department has been receiving too much money from student fees. What are your opinions on this, and how do you think the University could operate more efficiently on a tight budget? DS: I think student athletics is an important part of UNM, and it allows opportunities for students to really get connected with this University. At the same time, a balance should always be made in terms of funding to make sure that things are not going overboard. As stated earlier, I intend to have transparency though all business operations so that the students and others can keep us accountable. BM: It’s a double-edged sword that I don’t like treading, because Athletics is a certain sect of students that you don’t want to choose to alienate by saying that we should slash their SFRB funding … I think what we need to look at when operating on a tighter budget is addressing what a student fee is and what should it go to … By addressing what a student fee is for, we could achieve a more efficient budget process that can get tighter as we go through time. NM: I personally think that the Athletics Department is getting too much funding. I think we should start focusing on other areas first, and then eventually on Athletics. A lot of the
students that I have talked to are upset with the budget, so I would direct it more to the students and see how they would want to spend funding. DL: A number of UNM students are older, nontraditional students who have one or two jobs while taking classes at UNM and commute to campus. Considering that you are a young traditional student, how are you prepared to represent nontraditional students’ interest at UNM? DS: As a friend to nontraditional students both in my department and others, I believe that we are all students and even those that we label ‘nontraditional’ are students and should be represented just the same as all the others. BM: Within the scope of the vice president, I would really be interested in inviting the Association for Non-Traditional Students to speak as a guest speaker at the Senate about what they do and in what ways ASUNM can collaborate with them to better represent their needs and interests. While in a small way, I hope that the dialogue that is opened up would prove to be beneficial and begin strides towards a better representative senate. NM: As far as parents or students who stay late here on campus, I would try to create a center where the education department could help to create a daycare center so that parents could go to their classes. And even transportation, because I know a lot of them don’t drive on campus.
Having the buses running late would also be a great idea to accommodate their schedules. DL: Why are you the best choice for vice president? DS: I believe that based on my previous leadership experiences, I would offer a new beneficial view and leadership of the senate. This would allow for the transfer of different information that can be used for future senators, vice presidents and beyond to help the ASUNM Senate progress and grow. In addition the key thing that I have learned in my leadership roles was that leadership is about service. I am the best choice for vice president because I will serve UNM to make sure that all things that I do are for the progression and service of the student population at UNM. BM: I’m not going to say that experience alone is going to be the predicator of why I am the best choice, though I do think that my five semesters as a senator play to my advantage. I know all these things that the vice president does for the Senate, and I think that’s why I’m a great candidate. And I’m someone that’s completely open to any dialogue, and I don’t shush anything out or cut anything out. I feel like I have an open-door policy, and that office there downstairs is about the best thing that I can have. NM: I would be the best choice because I come from a different background. I have no experience with ASUNM, and I really don’t think that anyone who has started there has had an experience before. I would bring the equality back and make it stronger.

THIS WEEK’S POLL: On March 30, former UNM men’s basketball head coach Steve Alford announced that he was leaving to coach at UCLA. This was the same week Alford agreed to a 10-year extension and $240,000 raise with UNM. Associate men’s basketball coach Craig “Noodles” Neal is replacing Alford. What do you think about this?
LETTERS
Considering the money and prestige Alford is getting with the UCLA gig, I can’t really blame him for leaving UNM.
Your income tax dollars pay for global misery
I don’t care what Alford left for. It is never admirable or understandable for a person to break an agreement.
Editor,
Good riddance — Noodles is a legit replacement. I don’t care who coaches the team; there are more important things to be concerned with at UNM.

Hands — We enjoy using our hands to work, to garden, to play musical instruments, to prepare and eat meals, to pleasure our genitals, to make love with others … If we pay federal income tax, we pay to destroy other people’s hands in war. Eyes — We enjoy seeing flowers, sunsets, trees, mountains, written words, loved ones, attractive bodies … If we pay federal income tax, we pay to blind people in war. Skin — If we pay federal income tax, we pay to severely burn babies and to rip open the flesh of grandmas and grandpas. Feet — We enjoy walking, running, dancing … If we pay federal income tax, we pay to tear apart the feet of children who will never run again. Home — We enjoy having here our favorite clothes, treasured photos, special keepsakes, protection from the cold and storms, a place to feel safe with loved ones … If we pay federal income tax, we pay to bomb other people’s homes. This is what Lockheed Martin, Kirtland Air Force Base, Sandia Weapons Labs, Los Alamos Weapons Labs and federal income tax are about — the maiming, mutilation and murder of multitudes of our sisters and brothers abroad. The main purpose of the U.S. Empire is to make sure that most USA-ans, especially the large corporations and filthy rich elite, keep stealing and hogging the wealth of the world. The U.S. is less than 5 percent of the world’s people but consumes 25 percent of the world’s wealth. The United States routinely supports bloody regimes that bow to Wall Street and the U.S. Pentagon — allowing U.S.-based corporations to rob their nations’ masses of their resources and labor. The United States has deliberately supported brutal, rotten regimes in dozens of nations: Egypt, Afghanistan, Israel, Iraq, Iran, Zaire, Fiji, Ethiopia, Rhodesia, South Africa, Pakistan, Brunei, South Vietnam, Argentina, Liberia, Honduras, Paraguay,
Panama, El Salvador, Indonesia, Taiwan, Greece, Brazil, Portugal, Nicaragua, Bolivia, Dominican Republic, Turkey, Morocco, Spain, Columbia, Peru, Philippines, Cuba, Haiti, Chile, Guatemala, South Korea, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Mexico … The U.S. Empire is the enemy of genuine democracy, justice, freedom and human rights. The best way to refuse to pay federal income tax to rob, terrorize, paralyze, cripple, blind, torture, make homeless and murder our sisters and brothers — with no fines and no threats from this government — is to live simply, below the federal income taxable level. I lived well for all of 2012 on $4,641 — less than half the federal income taxable level of $9,750 for a single person under 65. I have paid no federal income tax for war for 34 years and I pledge never to do so the rest of my life. I have no right to pay tax to do to other people what I do not want them to do to me. Why march for peace and pay for war? Don Schrader Daily Lobo reader
Commitment is key to building decent teams Editor’s note: In this letter, the author refers to the letter he wrote that was published in the Daily Lobo March 26. The letter, “Lobo Men’s Basketball deserves recognition for solid season,” urged readers not to overlook how well the men’s basketball team did overall this season in light of the loss to No. 14 Harvard in the second round of the NCAA tournament. Recently I lavished much praise on the men’s basketball team and its coach in a letter to the Daily Lobo, and while I am saddened by the choice of coach Steve Alford to leave, it is understandable in this day and age. During his press conference, he sat and gleefully articulated his thoughts in front of a Lobo backdrop and said “I’m going to UCLA,” as if he were a kid with his first box of Pop Rocks. Despite the raise and 10-year contract extension, in this day and age, this is how the college basketball world moves.
Hopefully Alford can continue his winning ways at UCLA, where a second-round loss to a 14th seeded team will not be rewarded with a raise and 10-year contract extension. Hopefully he can follow in the footsteps of John Wooden, the UCLA’s legendary coach, and bring the Bruins back to preeminence. Hopefully he will not follow in the footsteps of Ben Howland, who, with his run of Final Four appearances, was apparently not enough for the school and was bounced after a first-round loss. I hope coach Alford has more postseason gas in his tank in Westwood than he did in Albuquerque. It’s always a tough time at the end of the season, when so many coaches move about the country. Generally they do so while pointing to the success of the Cadillac programs they are heading toward, the dream it is to coach there, and some legendary coach such as John Wooden who made them what they’ve become. It’s also tough because while these departing coaches leave to fill the shoes of the failed coaches before them, they emulate none of the qualities of the legendary men they praise. It’s hard to imagine John Wooden leaving UCLA after he had signed a 10-year extension, but this isn’t that era anymore. While it is doubtful it will ever happen again, it would be nice to see a coach decide to come to and stick to a program to create and design their own legacy and define a school as a pinnacle program for basketball. Before John Wooden, was UCLA the top-tier program it is now? Not hardly, but he set about with conviction and loyalty to build it to that. Coaches jumping to these legendary programs have an almost 100 percent failing rate, but they continue to do so. UCLA will probably pay when Alford is canned ignominiously for failing to live up to the standards of a coach and program that had attributes that don’t exist in college ranks anymore. Best of luck, coach Alford; may the coaching job you receive after you follow the current trend of ship-jumping coaches to failure at UCLA not be a 1-AA school. Jason Stafford UNM student

Tortoise lost, not stolen Turns out, tortoise reported stolen just ‘behind paneling in her enclosure’
The Associated Press DUBUQUE, Iowa — An African leopard tortoise thought to be stolen from an Iowa museum was actually trapped behind paneling in her enclosure, and a misguided employee who found her lied to keep up the story about her theft, the museum announced Friday. In a bizarre move, the employee who found the 18-pound reptile named Cashew put her into a building elevator in an attempt to prevent the museum further embarrassment, said Jerry Enzler, president and CEO of the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium in Dubuque. The tortoise was found alone in a museum elevator on Thursday, two days after the museum had discovered she
was missing and announced that she had been stolen. Museum officials told media outlets Thursday that they believed a regretful thief had smuggled her back inside. But several hours later, a museum employee came forward and told the truth: Cashew was never stolen. “The action taken by the employee Thursday afternoon was wrong and is not reflective of the integrity of the staff who dedicate themselves to the highest of Museum & Aquarium standards,� Enzler said in a statement Friday. Enzler said the employee, whose name and position has not been released, will be reprimanded. He said it was a personnel issue and did not provide any additional information.
Cashew is one of six large tortoises on display in the enclosure. A 4-foot glass wall separates visitors from the creatures. Enzler said the notion of a stolen tortoise grabbed national attention. “The idea that someone may steal a tortoise was so disturbing, and I think people responded to that,� he said. He’s just glad the tortoise is in good health, and he said staff is reviewing the enclosures. “It has good karma to know TMP PRODUCTION Cashew wasn’t stolen and some4.0000 x 5�museum one didn’t violate the and its exhibit,� he said. “I think baf/baf it restores our faith in humanity to know someone didn’t take the animal.� The 9-year-old tortoise will be back on display Saturday.

In this undated file photo provided by Katlyn R. Gerken, a staff member of the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium in Dubuque, Iowa holds Cashew, an 18-pound African leopard tortoise. The museum said Friday that an employee found the tortoise behind paneling in her enclosure and hid her in an elevator in a misguided attempt to prevent further embarrassment after officials announced Tuesday that they believed Cashew had been stolen.

Dodgers sweep Pirates Series shutout is first for Pittsburgh in more than 40 years
by Joe Resnick
The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Hyun-Jin Ryu earned his first major league victory, shrugging off a two-run homer in the first inning by Andrew McCutchen and pitching the Los Angeles Dodgers past the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-2 Sunday for a three-game sweep. Adrian Gonzalez drove in four runs with three hits and Justin Sellers homered for the Dodgers. Ryu (1-1) allowed two runs and three hits in 6 1-3 innings, striking out six and walking two. The 26-year-old lefty from South Korea signed a $36 million, sixyear contract with the Dodgers in December after they bid $25.7 million to win exclusive rights to negotiate with him. Jeff Locke (0-1) of the Pirates lost in his season debut, giving up four runs and eight hits over six innings. The 25-year-old lefthander, beginning what he hopes will be his first full season in the majors, is 1-7 with a 6.32 ERA and nine home runs allowed in 11 big league starts over a three-

William Aranda / Daily Lobo Sophomore Samir Iftikhar gets ready to deliver a forehand against Fresno State on Sunday. The Lobos went on to win 7-0 in their final home meet of the season.
by Antonio Sanchez sports@dailylobo.com
UNM men’s tennis head coach Alan Dils is a proponent of tough love. The Lobos suffered a close loss against UNLV at home Friday afternoon, leading the day 3-1 before losing the next three matches to fall 4-3 to the Rebels. Dils said that leading into
Sunday’s match against Fresno State, he did what he could to rally his team for the last home match of the season. “I yelled at them and said things that probably shouldn’t be repeated, will not be repeated,” Dils said. “We talked a lot about pride, which, in my opinion, we didn’t play with on Friday. We had opportunities to win that match, and at the end of the
day we were the ones that rolled over and not UNLV and on our home courts. With the personnel that we have, that’s purely unacceptable.” Dils’ finger-waving wasn’t for naught, for the Lobos then swept the Fresno State 7-0 Sunday afternoon. UNM is now 1011 overall.

UNM head baseball coach Ray Birmingham earned his 1,000th career victory on Saturday in a 19-5 victory at Air Force. “I’m proud that all of them were in the great state of New Mexico, my state,” said Birmingham, a native of Hobbs, N.M., in a press release. Birmingham started his collegiate coaching career at the College of the Southwest in Hobbs, N.M., in 1988. Two years later, Birmingham took over the program at New Mexico Junior College. Birmingham became head coach of the Lobos in 2008. The Lobos won the first game of the series versus the Falcons 11-5, but lost the finale 11-4 on Sunday. New Mexico holds a record of 16-15, 8-4 Mountain West Conference.

fifth with an RBI single. The Dodgers tacked on two more in the seventh against Chris Leroux with Sellers’ leadoff homer and Gonzalez’s run-scoring single. Starling Marte opened the game with a single and McCutchen hit a one-out drive about five rows into the left field pavilion for the Pirates’ first home run of the season. Until

then, they were the only team in the majors without one. Ryu walked Gaby Sanchez, but third baseman Juan Uribe helped minimize the damage by robbing Michael McKenry of a potential RBI double down the line with a diving stop and getting the forceout at second. Los Angeles tied it in the bottom
half with three straight one-out hits, including a two-run double by Gonzalez. Pittsburgh dropped the first two games of the series 3-0 to Zack Greinke and 1-0 to Clayton Kershaw, getting just two hits against each pitcher. The Pirates haven’t been shut out in three consecutive games since August 1968.
from page 8 “Even though it was a close match and we had it right there, we felt like we handed them the match, they didn’t beat us, we beat ourselves,” Berg said. “We wanted to come out today with every single person believing in not only the team but in ourselves.”

matches were decided in a third set, as Iftikhar, Hignett, and McDaniels rounded out the day with a singles win each. Senior and No. 1 seed Phillips took an early lead against Fritz, winning his first set 6-3. The match’s momentum went to Fritz in the second set, however, as Phillips fell early 0-3 before rallying to win five consecutive games for a 7-5 win. The match ended on a sour note, as Fritz threw his racket against the ground, leading to an unsportsmanlike conduct notice and a point handed to Iftikhar’s match. Phillips said he was proud to win his last two matches at home. “We need to take pride in being a Lobo; being able to play tennis, being able to be a college athlete, you should honor that,” Phillips said. “We’re here for a purpose and we need to remember that purpose every time we step on the court.”

Berg, one of the Lobos’ two seniors, won both of his matches against the Bulldogs, coming on top of his singles match 6-1, 6-4 against the third seed Nakireddi.

Weekly Horoscopes by Alexandra Swanberg aswanny@unm.edu
She brings to those to love Capricorn—Your finances come into intense focus starting with the new moon in Aries on Wednesday. This is nothing to fear, as you thrive off the pressure at this time. There is a feeling of “do-ordie” this week, prompting you to find your next path in life and pursue it with all you’ve got. It looks to be a productive week, as long as you take it easy for the first part of the week. Choose your battles and save that energy for a cause that truly matters to you. Aquarius—Starting Wednesday, you enter a phase of renewed personal freedom. The cosmos are in such a state that your will is a more powerful force. It’s time for you to take the first steps toward the dreams you’ve fostered the past few months. Keep an open mind regarding what you believe to be possible, as you’re capable of accomplishing more than you might think during the next couple of weeks. Pisces—You may feel overwhelmed by the abundance of possibilities that you face with the new moon in Aries on Wednesday. You feel compelled to take action, but are having a difficult time discerning what the best course of action is. Try to be patient with yourself while doing your best to go with the flow. Do what feels right, even if it doesn’t make much sense at the time. Done properly, you’ll have a ripe new opportunity when the moon is full. Aries—You’ll quickly recover from some minor setbacks experienced in the past week, and gain much needed momentum with the new moon on Wednesday. Don’t let these minor hiccups trip you up this week, as it’s better to forgive and forget if you want to get what you want by the full moon in a couple of weeks. This is the ultimate fresh start for you — don’t waste it by getting caught up in what you can’t change or control. Taurus—You’ve been drag-
ging quite a bit in the last couple of weeks, as your stubbornness inhibits personal growth. The Aries influence prompts every sign of the zodiac to fight for what they want and use innovation to do so. You are stuck in routine, which is frustrating you and the people who want to see you succeed. Loosen up and let go of preconceived notions of what’s right and wrong in your life. Try out different lifestyles in the next couple of weeks. Gemini—You’ll find that if you stop worrying about what you should and shouldn’t be doing, your life will fall neatly into place over the next couple of weeks. The new moon in Aries on Wednesday is the beginning of your opportunity to discover how truly powerful you are, if only you would believe in yourself. Go with what your heart desires, and don’t let the wounds of past mistakes or soured relationships hold you back. Cancer—You’re ready for a fresh start, which everyone enjoys starting with the new moon in Aries on Wednesday. However, your anxiety casts a shadow over what could be the most productive time of year for you. Get control over your mind and emotions, or you risk worrying so much you completely miss the doors opening up around you. Take a more active role in your life, and fully commit so that your every action moves toward your goals. Leo—Be prepared to spread your wings and fly, as the new moon in Aries on Wednesday propels you to a prosperous future. While the barriers to your success are diminished in the next couple of weeks, this should not translate as a time for rest and relaxation. Work your tail off so you squeeze every last drop of value from this period. The more you make out of it, the greater the rewards you’ll reap this year and beyond Virgo—It’s time for you to
start letting go of deep-seated insecurities, especially those that are getting in the way of your relationships and work life. However, you do have a clear vision of who you want to be and you’re getting a better idea of how you can get there. In theory, you’ve got what it takes. Just weed out all the ways in which you are subconsciously holding yourself back. You owe yourself better than that. Libra—With the exception of today and Tuesday, this is not the time for second-guessing yourself. You’re used to taking action based on the good of the crowd and what its consensus may be. Now, you do much better in a leadership capacity, but you need to go out on a limb and do what you think is right. Of course, continue to be considerate, but the next couple of weeks are best used if you rely on your personal strength and direction to get ahead. Scorpio—Uncertainty has been the bane of your existence the past couple of weeks. Despite having an increasing clear idea of where you want to be, you may be impatient with the pace at which you’re moving forward. The next couple of weeks throw your progression into warp speed, so use today and Tuesday to re-charge and think about what your next steps might be. The new moon on Wednesday marks the start of a breathtaking journey to the “new you.” Sagittarius—It’s an exciting week for you, as the curtains have parted and it is time for you to shine. While the week starts off rather shaky, by Wednesday you’ll feel like you woke up ready to conquer the world. The last couple of weeks have been a trying period, and this is your chance to grow from the lessons you learned. No matter what, remember this is your life and it is up to you to make it what you want. This is you mission for the next couple of weeks.

SOFTBALL
Mercy rule ends 13-0 blowout in the fifth Despite Boise’s 24 total runs to UNM’s 13, Lobos win series 2-1
by Christian Naranjo sports@dailylobo.com @cnaranjo7
For the New Mexico softball team, anything that could go wrong did go wrong on Sunday afternoon. Boise State clobbered UNM 13-0 at Lobo Field in a five-inning mercy rule game. The Broncos accumulated all of their runs from only 14 hits. Meanwhile, the Lobos recorded a mere three hits. UNM freshman pitcher Lauren Soles (8-11) struggled to gain momentum through 2 and 1/3 innings of work, surrendering five hits, three walks, and seven earned runs. The left-hander had a difficult time delivering a legal pitch. The umpires judged four of her pitches illegal, which advances any base runners and eliminates any call of the pitch. Head coach Erica Beach said the umpires’ rulings deeply impacted the result of the game. “It completely changed the game,” she said. “When your pitcher is deemed legal for two days and then illegal the next, it changes the way she throws. I have no doubt it changed the outcome of the game. I’m disappointed about it.” Soles pitched the previous two games against Boise State, totaling 10 innings and a 2.50 earned runs average. She leads the team in three major pitching categories: innings pitched (106), strikeouts (93), and earned run average (2.70). Boise State’s junior pitcher
William Aranda / Daily Lobo Sophomore pitcher Carrie Sheehan delivers a pitch against Boise State on Sunday at Lobo Field. UNM lost 13-0 but won the series 2-1 for its first two Mountain West Conference wins of the year. Rebecca Patton dominated, tossing five innings, and allowing zero runs with four strikeouts. Patton did not allow the Lobos to earn a base hit until the third inning. UNM senior infielder Kaity Ingram and freshman outfielder
Mariah Rimmer combined to go 0-6 at the plate. “It was back and forth all weekend long, so I knew it would be another tough game,” Beach said. “They are not a team that backs down.”
Despite the loss, the Lobos (1824, 2-4 MWC) still won the series against the Broncos 2-1. New Mexico earned a 7-6 victory on Friday and 6-5 win on Saturday. UNM is 9-5 at home this season. Beach said Sunday’s drubbing
does not diminish their first two wins of Mountain West play. “I thought we played a great series overall,” she said. “I’m happy with how hard we played. I’m also happy to leave here with a 2-1 record.”
TRACK & FIELD
‘Some very positive things happened today’ UNM records myriad top-10 finishes in last home meet of the season
by J.R. Oppenheim
assistantsports@dailylobo.com @JROppenheim Junior Kendall Spencer earned two first-place finishes at the Don Kirby Tailwind Collegiate Invitational on Saturday, one of several strong performances turned in by New Mexico in its lone home outdoor meet of the year. The 2012 indoor long jump NCAA champion, Spencer recorded a leap of 25 feet, 1/2 inch in that event at the Don Kirby despite an all-conditions personal-best mark by teammate Zach Smith. The junior placed second with a 23-6 and 1/4 jump. Spencer’s long jump win came after he ran the anchor leg for UNM’s 4x100-meter relay-winning squad. Thomas Trujillo, Derek Montoya, Smith and Spencer ran a 41.16 time. Smith and Spencer nearly missed the final exchange, but the team possibly finished with the fourth-best Mountain West outdoor time this season. “I give today about a B-minus,” Spencer said after the long jump ended. “I went out there and executed what I wanted to execute in practice. Really, this was just another day to have fun.” The Don Kirby meet was UNM’s third event of the outdoor season, which provides some challenges not experienced on the indoor track. Those range from weather conditions to differences in depth perception to variation in the track size. UNM head coach Joe Franklin said it was like the “first meet of the year” now that his team has adjusted to the outdoor track. “Some very positive things happened today,” he said. “We’re excited for the next three weeks.” In all, UNM had six first-place finishes in the 10-team meet, competing against Adams State, Colorado College, Colorado Mesa, Fort Lewis College, Grand Canyon, New Mexico Highlands, New Mexico State, Colorado-Colorado Springs, Western State and West Texas A&M. In his outdoor debut, senior Ty Kirk won the triple jump with a 48-8 and 1/4 leap. Junior distance runner Gabe Aragon clocked a first-place 1:51.60 in the 800 meters, while teammate sophomore Alex Herring was sixth in 1:53.29. Senior Amber Menke claimed the pole vault with a 13-1

and 1/2 leap. The Albuquerque native clipped the backside of the bar after going over it, but the bar bounced and stayed up. Junior Margo Tucker placed third in the vault with a 12-9 and 1/2 mark. Junior Lexi Ross added a first-place finish in the javelin with a 142-5 throw. Freshman Haley Sanner ran strong in her first 400 hurdles at the college level, clocking 1:02.89 for second place. UNM had other second-place finishes from J.P. Cordova in the 1,500 (3:57.48); the men’s 4x400 relay team of Montoya, Chris Kline, Aragon and Herring (3:17.67); Yeshemabet Turner in the long jump
(19-8 3/4) and the triple jump (40-7); and the women’s 4x400 relay team of Zoe Howell, Jasmin McCray, Tawsha Brazley, and Shirley Pitts (3:50.75). Third-place marks came from Precious Selmon in the 100 hurdles (14.54); Howell in the 400 (56.69); and the women’s 4x100 relay team of Kayla Fisher-Taylor, Turner, Casey Dowling and Aasha Marler (46.79). Competing as an unattached athlete, UNM senior Richard York won the javelin with a personal-best 215-8 throw. Former Lobo and 2012 Olympian Jarrin Solomon ran a 45.70 to take the 400.
