UNM’s neighbors offer traffic input by Danielle Boudreau Daily Lobo
Jenny Gignac / Daily Lobo Members of the Bernalillo County Sheriff ’s Department SWAT team arrive at the scene of the Emcore shooting near Eubank Boulevard and Gibson Avenue on July 12. Summer Little, program manager for the UNM Women’s Resource Center, said the center is anticipating an increase in calls after the shooting.
Emcore puts domestic abuse on forefront by Tricia Remark Daily Lobo
Abuse victims may be more likely to come forward and ask for help as a result of Tuesday’s deadly shooting at Emcore, an Albuquerque fiber optics company. Summer Little, Women’s Resource Center program manager, said high profile events like the one at Emcore tend to draw a spike in the number of abuse victims who seek help. “Events like this can be a trigger for people who have experienced abuse or are experiencing abuse,” she said. “They might feel like they need to reach out for help and we’re certainly here if they do.” Little said the WRC had an increase in calls after UNM English professor Hector Torres and graduate student Stefania Gray were killed in March after a suspected domestic dispute. The WRC may see a similar increase in domestic violence victims asking for help after Tuesday’s shooting, she said. On Tuesday, Robert Reza shot six people at Emcore, killing two and hospitalizing four — including his ex-girlfriend, Adrienne Basciano. Basciano is still in critical condition at UNMH, said hospital spokesman Billy Sparks. Reza shot and killed 36-year-old Michele Turner and 47-year-old Sharon Cunningham. He wounded Malissia Mai, Rodney Noble and Dixie Colvin before killing himself. Nadine Hamby, APD spokeswoman, said Reza’s main motivation for the shootings was to kill Basciano. Reza and Basciano had twin 5-year-old boys who are now

277-3716 www.unm.edu/~women being cared for by family, Hamby said. Reza may have been mentally ill, believing that Emcore had “implanted chips in his brain and could hear his thoughts,” according to a Saturday story in the Albuquerque Journal. Reza worked at Emcore from 2006-09, when he resigned for medical issues, the story said. Police also found a 40-page journal that Reza kept, although they are not releasing details about what was written, Hamby said. Hamby said the New Mexico legislature might take another look at “Kendra’s Law,” which was introduced after John Hyde killed five people in Albuquerque during a 2005 shooting spree. Hyde struggled with mental illness, authorities said. Kendra’s Law would make it illegal for people who are a threat to themselves or others to go without treatment. Former Mayor Martin Chavez introduced the law in 2005, but it didn’t pass through district court. T.J. Wilham, Albuquerque public safety director, said Mayor Berry could announce whether he will re-introduce Kendra’s Law as soon as Monday. Little said mental illness isn’t usually a factor in domestic violence. “(Domestic violence) is more an issue with power and control
than it is with mental illness,” she said. Tuesday’s shooting is a reminder that abuse is still a problem, Little said. She said the WRC deals with “quite a few domestic violence issues.” “We still have a lot of education and prevention work to do,” she said. “This is a real reminder of that.” The UNM community is already taking steps to curb domestic violence, Little said. The WRC and other departments wrote a grant for the Violence Against Women Act. Little said that if UNM receives the grant, the WRC will hire a coordinator to reduce domestic violence, stalking and sexual abuse. “We really need to move beyond shame and embarrassment around it,” she said. “People don’t ask to be abused — it just happens.” Little said the reasons people stay in an abusive relationship can be complicated. She said domestic violence often doesn’t stay in just a home setting. “A lot of people think it’s just private, so when it does happen somewhere public, it’s kind of shocking,” she said. Little said the WRC is partnering with the English department and other organizations, including GPSA, to host the first GrayTorres Symposium in September. She said stalking and domestic violence will be addressed. The WRC doesn’t just help women find resources, as men can call or come in for help also, she

The Mid-Region Council of Governments held two kick-off meetings at UNM on July 14 to gauge public interest in alternative means of transportation to UNM and CNM. The council’s Travel Demand Management Study is an effort to avoid disputes that arose last summer over a proposed UNM parking garage, said Isaac Benton, city councilor and chair of the Rio Metro Board. In July 2009, the Spruce Park Neighborhood Association and the State Board of Finance expressed concerns over UNM’s proposed parking structure at Las Lomas Road and Redondo Drive. SBF representatives said they weren’t convinced UNM was promoting alternative transportations methods. And the neighborhood association representatives said the parking structure would increase traffic and threaten neighborhood safety. “It was a rocky time between the University and city regarding planning,” Benton said. In working to find resolutions that satisfy the community, MRCOG will identify and implement ways to improve transportation issues at both UNM and CNM, according to a July 7 news release. Parking, public transportation, consumer cost and environmental impact are among the study’s main concerns. The researchers will hear the needs and concerns of the UNM and CNM communities, said Augusta Meyers, MRCOG spokeswoman. Benton said the study will shed light on the concerns of students,
staff, faculty and community members around the two campuses. “At the end of the study, we will have recommendations on specific ways we can make travel to and from UNM and CNM more convenient, affordable and compatible with nearby neighborhoods,” Benton said in the release. Benton said working with the surrounding neighborhoods is a key focus. He said conducting a thorough analysis of transportation needs and hearing public concerns will hopefully prevent future discord. Attendees examined data regarding transportation around UNM and CNM, according to the MRCOG website. This included peak class enrollment times, travel times and demands, permitting and accessibility issues and distribution of residencies. A similar analysis is scheduled to continue through the end of the summer. Meyers said more public meetings will be held in late August and early September, but at this point it is still too early to tell what specific improvements will be made. “We’re really starting at the very beginning of this project, so everything is an option at this point,” she said.

PHOENIX — Minutemen groups, a surge in Border Patrol agents and a tough new immigration law aren’t enough for a reputed neo-Nazi who’s now leading a militia in the Arizona desert. Jason “J.T.� Ready is taking matters into his own hands, declaring war on “narco-terrorists� and keeping an eye out for illegal immigrants. So far, he says his patrols have only found a few border crossers who were given water and handed over to the Border Patrol. Once, they also found a decaying body in a wash, and alerted authorities. But local law enforcement are nervous given that Ready’s group is heavily armed and identifies with the National Socialist Movement, an organization that believes only non-Jewish, white heterosexuals should be American citizens and that everyone who isn’t white should leave the country “peacefully or by force.� “We’re not going to sit around and wait for the government anymore,� Ready said. “This is what our founding fathers did.� An escalation of civilian border watches have taken root in Arizona in recent years, including the Minutemen movement. Various groups patrol the desert on foot, horseback and in airplanes and report suspicious activity to the Border Patrol, and generally, they have not caused problems for law enforcement. But Ready, a 37-year-old ex-Marine, is different. He and his friends are outfitted with military fatigues, body armor and gas masks, and carry assault rifles. Ready takes offense at the term “neo-Nazi,� but admits he identifies with the National Socialist Movement. “These are explicit Nazis,� said Mark Potok of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Intelligence Project. “These are people who wear swastikas on their sleeves.�

Ready is a reflection of the anger over illegal immigration in Arizona. Gov. Jan Brewer signed a controversial new immigration law in April, which requires police, while enforcing other laws, to question a person’s immigration status if officers have a reasonable suspicion that the person is in the country illegally. But Brewer hasn’t done enough, Ready said, and he’s not satisfied with President Barack Obama’s decision to beef up security at the border. Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu said there haven’t been any incidents with the group as they patrol his jurisdiction, which includes several busy immigrant smuggling corridors. But Babeu is concerned because an untrained group acting without the authority of the law could cause “extreme problems,� and put themselves and others in danger. “I’m not inviting them. And in fact, I’d rather they not come,� Babeu said. “Especially those who espouse hatred or bigotry such as his.� Law enforcement officials said patrols like Ready’s could undercut the work of the thousands of officers on duty every day across the border, especially if they try to enforce the law themselves in carrying out vigilante justice. Ready said his group has been patrolling in the desert about 50 miles south of Phoenix, in an area where a Pinal County Sheriff ’s deputy reported he was shot by drug smugglers in April. Bureau of Land Management rangers met Ready’s group during one patrol, and they weren’t violating any laws or looking for a confrontation, said spokesman Dennis Godfrey. The patrols have been occurring on public land, and militia members have no real restrictions on their weaponry because of Arizona’s loose gun laws. The militia is an outgrowth of border watch groups that have
been part of the immigration debate in Arizona. Patrols in the Arizona desert by Minutemen organizations brought national attention to illegal immigration in 2004 and 2005. Such groups continue to operate in Arizona, and law enforcement officials generally don’t take issue with them as long as they don’t take matters into their own hands.

No, James can’t coexist alongside two 4% other superstars in Miami No, I hope James doesn’t win a title in Miami because he gave Cleve- 74% land the middle-finger salute live on television.
THIS WEEK’S POLL: Do you think UNM should change its dry campus policy? Yes, it’s better to have students of age drinking on campus and not have to drive anywhere since dorms are a short walk away. Yes, students are drinking at local alcohol service establishments already. We may as well see UNM make some money from this venture. No, are you serious? Alcohol on campus is a really bad idea. No, it’s better to keep campus life and afterclass life as separate as possible.

UNM community eschews gum
LETTER Recent letters to the editor illogical and uninformed Editor, Reading through the Daily Lobo published for July 12-19, I was shocked to see how poorly written the opinion letters were. First of all, I am skeptical as to whether anyone can apply for a liquor license in the SUB. I would think the dry campus policy has more to do with this university being state property than honoring our institution’s supposed “Christian heritage.” The entire article reeked of self-righteousness and didn’t do anything to convince me that allowing the restaurants on campus to serve beer and wine would be a bad thing. Regarding the sex scandal article, it seemed to me that Ms. Nguyen wasn’t really all that informed about the issue. Finally, I would suspect that the UNM Recreational Services Department is responsible for maintaining the tennis courts and not the Athletics Department. I think the Athletics budget is ridiculous as well, but let’s not discredit this opinion by shooting off at the mouth about things we don’t understand. Evan Harris UNM Student

“Who really knows what gum does to you?”
by Chris Quintana Culture Editor
UNM announced a ban on gum today to coincide with the state’s increased tax on gum packs. The previous tax, 25 cents per pack, is now 50 cents a pack to deter health-related risks associated with gum chewing and cut back on under-aged chewing, said state spokesperson Tom Snaior. “We at the state department feel that this new tax will better this great state,” he said. “For too long, we labored under the myth that gum chewing might be healthy or at the very least not detrimental to one’s health. We now know, thanks to new studies based on sorbitol, that gum is a danger.” New studies by Johns Hopkins indicate that sorbitol can cause mouth cancer and seizures when a regular chewer, as they are called, consumes a pack a day. In addition to health effects, the new tax is expected to clean up the air so citizens who can’t abide scented breath will no longer have to worry. “It’s absolutely ridiculous for a person to go to a public venue, such as UNM, and have deal with titillating scents like kiwi, strawberry, blueberry or guava,” Snaior said while show-
ing new photos of chewers blowing a bubble with an X over their faces. “People have the right to smell the regular fresh air, even if that air might be tainted with carcinogens that chewing on sorbitol might produce.” While the effects of second-hand chewing are still undocumented, many anti-gum groups such as Chew-No-More are quick to point out causes of second-hand gum damage. Spokesperson Tim Leigh said the effects range from the mildly annoying to lethal. “Just the other day, I sat around listening to a chewer munching on a piece of gum the whole bus ride home,” he said while glaring at a gum consumer blowing a bubble on a park bench. “Those blowers are the worst. When those bubbles pop, and they do too often, it causes a distraction to everyone. Not to mention those sorbitol crystals start floating around all over the place. I wear my mask anytime I see a chewer these days.” Pro-gum chewing groups such as ChewMore insist they are doing harm only to themselves and not bothering anyone. Spokesperson Tina Gejan said society is simply too sensitive these days. “Yeah, I am not really sure what the problem is,” she said. “I mean, sure I do blow my bubbles in the direction of non-chewers here and then, but only because they were giving me the evil eye, you know. Plus, those studies haven’t been proven. Who really knows what gum does to you?” The implications of gum-related damage do seem varied and mercurial depending on the source. Chew-No-More points out the countless chewers are in the hospital with gum cancer and mouth cancer who still chew gum, although some suggest that the damage may have come from the radiation poisoning from a particularly bad year in safety inspections for tap water. Leigh said this claim
is weak at best. “I drank that water, just like everyone else, but you don’t see me with gum cancer, now do you?” Leigh said while guzzling water from a plastic bottle. Gejan said gum damage is avoidable with regular dental care. “I’ve been chewing since I was 15 in the girls’ bathroom to cut down on my weight for ballet. There’s not a single thing wrong with me,” she said while tonguing a growth in her mouth. Regardless of the position of both sides, the ban will go through promising a prolonged debate between both factions. ChewNo-More and Chew-More have both promised to fight the ban. Leigh said the restriction isn’t harsh enough. “It shouldn’t even be allowed in this country. That sort of stuff is the sort of thing Canadians condone, and if we aren’t better than Canadians we might as well stop trying now,” he said. Gejan said non-chewers should expect an increase of public chewing. “We’ll be chewing with our mouths open and spitting our gum on the sidewalk till this ban is repealed,” she said. “Hell, I’ll start giving out packs of Zebra stripes to children for free if it’ll make this thing go away any sooner.” The majority of campus students said the ban would prove to be bothersome. Andrew Johnson said the ban will have similar effects to that of the tobacco, soda, loud horns, skateboards and flash mob bans before it. “Are you serious — another one of these stupid bans went through?” he said. “That means everyone else who doesn’t care enough to get riled up has to deal with whining from both sides. I’m going to move to Canada where I don’t have to deal with this kind of stuff.”

Don’t worry... it kinda looks like you’re taking notes.
daily crossword by Chris Quintana Daily Lobo
Alex Langston plays the bass with heavy influence from Captain Beefheart, Frank Zappa and Primus. He calls himself Mud Octave. He said he’s looking to make it as a solo bassist, a stark contrast, he said, to all the one-man-acoustic-guitar acts out there. The actual music will surprise most. He doesn’t sing so much as speak periodically, and the lyrics always seem a tad obscure, but that doesn’t matter when the bass line fluctuates with deep beats the whole way through. He said he would probably buy singing lessons if he won the lottery, anyway. Daily Lobo: So when did the bass start for you? Alex Langston: I started about nine years ago. It’s got a great range. It’s cool because you can feel it in your body. When you go to a show, the vibration is there. When I am playing the bass, the resonance is so great and the sustain of the notes is such that you can feel throughout your whole body. DL: So you play as Mud Octave? Tell me more. AL: That’s been my solo project since 2006. I am in another band called Simfonik Plague. DL: But Mud Octave, where did that name come from? AL: So Mud Octave is actually from “My Name is Mud” by Primus and Octave because it is the lower octave. I was 17 when I thought of it, and I thought it was cool. It actually took a little bit for the name to settle in and me to agree with it. It wasn’t this amazingly brilliant name that all these bands have and you’re like, “Oh that’s great a name. I need to listen to them.” It took a little bit of getting used to. DL: So I was listening to a lot of your tracks earlier. I don’t want to call it abnormal, but it’s by no means mainstream. What are you trying to do with this sort of experimental music? AL: I’ve kind of looked at music and said, “Well, that’s been done.” I don’t want to be playing “Blue Suede Shoes.” For a while I wanted to be the best bassist in the world, and now I am just like, “I’m okay. I can handle doing whatever I really want to do. So I might as well do
what comes out emotionally.” DL: Simfonik Plague then — what are you doing with that band? AL: We’re doing a podcast. We just released our first episode this month. It’s monthly. We’re working on a recording. They have actually been around for 11 years. I’ve been in the band for a year. DL: If they have been around for 11 years, and you have been in it for a year, what’s that dynamic like? Do all things run smoothly, or do you find it to be a challenge to match their chemistry? AL: It was great to join a band. I had just quit another band I started. I didn’t want to do that again. It’s too much work to go around and find the musicians, so when I found the opportunity I was like, “Great.” I thought they were well enough established musicians and had their own styles. I can’t write songs for them because I don’t have the same style. If I wrote a song for them it would sound completely out of their range. And I’m fine with that because I got my solo project. DL: So you hail from Gallup, right? How did that affect your music? AL: I am actually not originally from Gallup. I was born in Illinois, grew up in Hawaii, lived in Georgia, and then Gallup. I started playing bass in Hawaii, which is really cool because there is a lot of heavy-based reggae music there. I think that had a big role in me starting to play the bass. DL: So what’s the music scene like in Georgia, then? AL: I started off in the heavy metal music scene, which is weird because I didn’t really listen to heavy metal music. When I was little I listened to The Deftones, and Simfonik Plague is a metal band. … I joined a band with these two guys and it was called Assault. It was this hysterical thing, you know, Metallica covers and such. The music scene there was all that hardcore screaming and … you know it was back near the turn of the century when that stuff was really prevalent. DL: So what did you notice when you did make it out to New Mexico? AL: Before I came here, I wasn’t exposed to Native American culture, specifically the Navajo nation because I lived in Gallup. I had known Native Americans as in Pa-
in the lobo features
cific Islander culture, but they are two totally different things. … That influenced me a lot, not necessarily for the music I have recorded, but more so for the music that I will be doing.

Caillie Lawrie, Biology, Sophomore Dress: Target, $20 Shoes: Target, $20

“I’ve been looking for brighter colors. I used to wear all black, white and blue, like constantly. It was awful. Now I’m looking for bright and cheerful colors.”
“What they think on the East Coast is you dress for the position you want in life, not the position you have.”
Caillie said her look was molded by traumatizing clothing decisions her mother made during her childhood, specifically huge, puffy and flowery dresses with big lace collars. These days she said she frequents Target along with thrift stores. She said she doesn’t mind waiting for the newest trends to pop into the secondhand stores. With a hand from her mother and a sewing machine, Callie can turn a lovely outfit two sizes too big into the right size.
Hunter hails from the East Coast and brings those trends with him. He said the West Coast look, Albuquerque specifically, features chic but comfortable and cool clothing that doesn’t look like it would break the bank. Hunter also said he received multiple compliments about his watch, which he’s owned for three or four years, but on the East Coast it goes unnoticed. He also said he was pleasantly surprised at the lack of cowboy boots and western hats in the city. Tip to the Fashion Defunct: “A lot of times people try too hard to match things. They have red and black Adidas with black pants and some sort of T-shirt that has black and red on it, and then they get a belt with black and red incorporated on it. They overemphasize the fact that they are going for it.”
Unbearable Fashion Trend: “A romper. It’s like a onesie, jumper thing. It’s like a skirt, but it’s a squirt and then it goes up into a shirt that’s strapless. It’s hideous. Those are my least favorite things in the world right now.”
Unbearable Fashion Trend: “There’s a hairstyle girls are doing a lot. I want to say there’s a bump up here (forehead). The hair is kind of back, and they take what would be bangs and flip it back. I don’t know what that’s called, but I don’t like it.”

Tip to the Fashion Defunct: “I feel when people try to be fashionable, they kind of complicate everything with the chains, sparkle and glitter. Start with basics and something you’re comfortable in. If you’re not comfortable, no one would stick with it. I would never walk around in high heels all day. It hurts.”

For three bucks, Josh Roper will print whatever you like. Josh Roper, the manager of Sixty Six Silk Screening, has supervised the inventory and sales of the company since it was founded, in addition to working the printer. He and his friend started the company because his friend was interested in making custom shirts. “It’s really rewarding to be able to wear a shirt that you made,” Roper said. “I screen shirts because there are not a lot of places like us in town.” Unlike a lot of retailers, Roper said Sixty Six Silk Screening is flexible with its customers and allows clients to bring in their own designs. “I think college students in particular have great ideas for shirts, but they don’t have a way to print them themselves,” he said. Before being involved with the company, Roper said he never tried shirt screening, but once he learned the screening process, it captivated him. “I was hooked to it once I saw the graphic on the computer becoming a graphic printed on the shirt,” he said. Roper said the process of screen
printing starts with a frame similar to one used in painting. A screen is used instead of stretching canvas over it. From there, an emulsion coat is sprayed and dried on the screen. Then the artwork is made into a transparency, which is placed on the screen and exposed to light and then washed out. Roper said it takes about a day to transform a design concept into a finished product. Screening is $3 dollars a print for one color print. It is $5 for a two-color print and an additional dollar for each extra color, but customers are given a price break for any purchase of 100 shirts or more. Marie Byers, an organizer for the Las Vegas Memorial Day Fiesta run, said she has contracted the company the last two years. “We picked them because they are a local group,” she said. “They do not disappoint. The logos turned out beautiful. We even had to order extra in the last minute and the company was able to get the extra done right on time.”

12th annual New Mexico Tap Dance Jam

Show stopper Roxane Butterfly will perform tap dance infused with Flamenco and Middle Eastern styles at the 12th annual New Mexico Tap Dance Jam on July 23 and 24. Butterfly’s appearance is a special happening for Albuquerque, as she usually only performs in big cities like New York or Chicago, Liz Salganek, producer of Tap Dance Jam, said. “She is incredibly virtuosic and has a unique style no one else has. ... It is an incredible opportunity to see her perform,” Salganek said. “She has one of the most creative styles for the fact that she incorporates so many types of world music and dance influences.” Butterfly frequently travels to Africa and the Middle East and a lot of her musical influence and dance styles are derived from there, Salganek said. Bill Evans, an eminent dancer and founder of the N.M. Tap Dance Jam, will perform several times this weekend after taking a hiatus from the Jam for the past three years. Evans is a dance professor at the SUNY Brockport and taught at UNM for 16 years. Evans said rhythm is an international language that com-
municates to people of diverse backgrounds. “Wherever I go, people love my tap dancing,” Evans said. “It doesn’t matter what culture it is. Rhythm crosses cultural boundaries, and people respond to rhythm. I think it unites all people on the planet, no matter what culture we come from.” Jackie Oliver, the artistic director of National Dance Institute of New Mexico and of the Tap Dance Jam, is Evans’ former student and has known him since she was 8 years old. She is also a part of the New Mexico Rhythm Tap Ensemble that includes Jesse Martinez, Robbie Peterson and Zane Barker, all of whom are performing this weekend. Other local groups performing include Fishback Studio of the Dance, Johnnie’s School of Dance, Marshall’s Performing Arts Conservatory and students of NDI-NM, the co-host of the Jam with UNM’s Department of Theater and Dance. Oliver said there will also be live musicians playing at the performances. Salganek said the Tap Dance Jam is eclectic in age and in styles of tap. “It’s really going to be an incredible range of styles of tap. You will see every style of tap during the evening,” she said.

Negative vibes won’t faze Wade Associated Press
MIAMI — Dwyane Wade is keeping track. He’s heard analysts say this Miami Heat lineup will be a flop. He’s heard other players lash out over the way LeBron James made his decision. He’s heard executives from other teams list Boston and Orlando as the teams to beat in the Eastern Conference. All duly noted in Wade’s mind. He’s not bothered nor angered, he says. But at the Summer Groove charity game Wade co-hosted Sunday with Alonzo Mourning, he acknowledged that when the Heat convenes for training camp in late September, the naysayers will serve as motivation for himself, for James, for Chris Bosh and everyone else inside the reloaded Miami locker room. “My whole career is built on fuel,” Wade said. “It’s always been there. It’s not going to change what I do with my life. It’s not going to change the way I am as a person. But it fuels you. And we all need that. Every athlete, every competitor needs something to fuel them. It’s going to happen throughout the year.” After an offseason with little time to relax, Wade got back to doing what he prefers Sunday — playing basketball. With a dozen NBA pals, Wade entertained a crowd of about 15,000 fans in a glorified exhibition of dunking, 3-pointers and a halftime concert by Flo Rida. Common, the Grammy-winning rapper, was on one bench and boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr. coached Wade’s team. Mayweather wouldn’t talk about the status of talks with Manny Pacquiao for the fight that the boxing world most wants to see. But ask him about the prospects of Wade, James and Bosh playing together, and Mayweather spoke volumes. “Hopefully, LeBron James has the
same chemistry with the Heat that he had with the Cavaliers,” Mayweather said. “Maybe a little bit better.” James wasn’t there for the festivities Sunday, nor was Bosh. But there has clearly been a giant spike in Heat buzz since they all announced they would play together. Outside the arena for the charity, parking lots that typically charge $10 a spot for NBA games wanted $20. Fans begged for autographs, and Wade said there was more excitement than after the 2006 title. “It’s going to be crazy,” former Heat forward Dorell Wright said. He would know. Wright was one of the players who left Miami this summer to make room for all the upgrades to the roster. He’s a close friend of Wade, who is a godfather to Wright’s son. But when Golden State made Wright an offer, he decided that it was time for a new beginning. “I’m just glad I’m getting out of the way,” Wright said. The new nameplates are already up in the Miami locker room. “James 6” and “Bosh 1” have already been installed just down from Wade’s cubicle. The proximity of the stars, within about 12 feet of each other, isn’t sitting well with Wade, who joked the new arrangement won’t work. It’s his lone complaint of the summer. The Heat kept Udonis Haslem, Joel Anthony and Jamaal Magloire, traded Michael Beasley and added Zydrunas Ilgauskas and Mike Miller. Deals with Magloire and Juwan Howard will be announced later this week. Carlos Arroyo is on the cusp of returning, and James Jones said Sunday that he’ll be coming back as well — even though it’ll be at a lower salary.

Homegrown NBA star returns to cultivate young talent by Shawn Abeita Daily Lobo
Becoming a star in the NBA: relentless. Being selected to tryout for the U.S. Men’s National Basketball team: joyous. Returning to the community that feels most like home: priceless. Former UNM men’s basketball standout Danny Granger was back in Albuquerque hosting his fifth annual basketball skills camp from July 12-15. “Albuquerque has that thing about community and family,” Granger said. “When you come back, it always feels like home.

guess that’s the enchantment of New Mexico.” Granger, a five-year NBA veteran, averaged 24.2 points per game, and 5.2 rebounds per game in 62 total games last season. He only saw action in those 62 games last season, because his campaign shortened after tearing a tendon in his foot. The Pacers missed the playoffs for a third straight year, but Granger said he is optimistic about making a run at the playoffs next season. “I was able to quickly recover from it, and I came back and played well,” Granger said. “But I think next year it is important for
us to develop a sense of chemistry as a team. In the past three or four years, we rotated a lot of players in and out.” After signing a five-year extension with the Pacers, Granger is quickly becoming the team’s cornerstone. “Being the face of the franchise is a huge responsibility,” Granger said “Part of this responsibility involves winning, so that is another goal of our team now.” Mark Walters, former Lobo guard and one of Granger’s teammates, said Granger stressed team cohesiveness at his time at UNM. “Danny was one of the bigger

That’s the thing that I remember the most and it allowed us to become close.

He was recently selected to participate in the U.S. Men’s National Team camp in Las Vegas, Nev. and is scheduled to report to camp July 19. “I was very happy to be invited to the team camp,” Granger said. “The opportunity to win a gold medal, whether it’s the World Championships or the Olympics is a huge opportunity.

Underdog has Consumerism corrupts boxing wide Open eyes Column
by Isaac Avilucea Daily Lobo
There’s no defending the conspired commercial ploy, a downand-dirty business deal crafted among promoters, boxers and television enablers. Gone are the golden days when boxing, much like art, was viewed for its aesthetic value, for its controlled violence and the bonding emotional effect it had on its viewers. In the Gilded Age, we must bear witness to the corrosive effects of capitalism, a pollutant that puts a price tag on the innate entertainment value of all sporting events, but especially boxing. By now you’ve heard that Floyd Mayweather, Jr. missed the deadline set by Top Rank promoter Bob Arum to agree to fight Manny Pacquiao. If just for a moment, let us all acknowledge the obvious: Mayweather-Pacquiao is commodity fetishism passed off as necessity. In search of this generation of sports’ national treasure, we reflect nostalgically on Thrilla in Manila — the finale to a trilogy featuring the sharp-tongued Muslim poet Muhammad Ali and an at-the-twilightof-his-career Joe Frazier, spilling pure emotion out onto a bare-naked canvas — hoping and grasping desperately at every present-day fight said to be legendary. Supposedly, Mayweather-Pacquiao is boxing’s lifeblood, the defibrillator to shock interest back into a breathless fan base and an on-itsdeathbed sport. In truth, Mayweather and Pacquiao are nothing more than cash cows, milking the American system, a system that allows second-at-best main events to be sold at first-rate prices.
Adding to the mystery behind Mayweather’s decision not to respond by the deadline is the fact that Pacquiao’s camp had apparently worked out agreements about blood testing and tabled the lawsuit filed against Mayweather and his ilk for subtle assertions that Pacquiao was somehow linked to performance-enhancing drugs — qualms that tanked the two’s last fight negotiations. Of course, Mayweather’s detractors will say that the 33-year-old is trying to bob and weave his way out of fighting Pacquiao. If that were the case, Mayweather’s camp would have never approached Pacquiao’s handlers about the two ever stepping foot in the ring. When the curtain is pulled back, it’s apparent this isn’t about Floyd’s uncle Roger Mayweather’s impending legal issues weighing on the younger Mayweather’s conscience; nor should it be argued that Mayweather is concerned about tarnishing his legacy, though such a megafight would undoubtedly varnish it. This comes down to simple economics. There’s a reason his nickname is “Money.” Always aware of his own self-worth, Mayweather knows pulling out is an effective method of — you guessed it — increasing consumerism. Through it all, Mayweather has drastically driven up the fight’s demand while shortchanging viewers on the supply. As an intended consequence of stalled negotiations, the toil and trouble of acquiring the bout has supercharged the luxury tax people will dole out if (and when) the match becomes a reality. For that reason, we are all spectators to a nationwide auction, in which the fight goes to the highest pay-per-view bidders.
More troubling, the boxing narrative enables such a holdout. There exists this deep-rooted mystification about the current nature of the sport. It’s the bane of boxing, the concept that it has to be on its last breath to sustain its vitality, a belief system that enhances and hampers the sport’s credibility and continued success. Out of these hysterical delusions that boxing is fading to oblivion, we’ve emboldened Mayweather and Pacquiao to believe they are the sport’s resurrectionists. And so, much like politicos, Mayweather and Pacquiao are divorced from the interests of the people. Because the sport is plagued by politics, by the time all the hand-wringing, negotiations and concessions are squared away, we are often forced to watch geriatric boxers going toeto-toe. But, in the same breath, the false consciousness that is fed to the public by those that shape the boxing narrative stokes the hype hearth, convincing the clueless that Mayweather-Pacquiao is somehow on the same level as Ali-Frazier III. The fact that Mayweather has already generated $292 million in revenue in six pay-per-view fights for broadcaster HBO, according to CNN, is a testament to the flourishing boxing industry. That Mayweather and Pacquiao’s posse believe the two are deliverers feeding an attention-starved sport is as unfortunate as it is misguided. Mayweather and Pacquiao are the poor man’s version of Ali and Frazier. It’s just a shame nobody recognizes the sham, and when the fight finally happens, the two will be even richer than they already are.
by Doug Ferguson Associated Press
ST. ANDREWS, Scotland — Louis Oosthuizen still remembers getting together with other kids from the Ernie Els Foundation to watch highlights of their hero winning the British Open at Muirfield in 2002. The shot out of a pot bunker on the 13th. His birdie on the 17th to tie for the lead. The bunker shot on the 18th hole to win the longest sudden-death playoff ever in a British Open. “We were actually getting goose bumps,” Oosthuizen said. “Just seeing that ... you’re always thinking, ‘I hope that happens to me.’” Hard as it is to imagine — even to the 27-year-old South African — it just might. After opening with a three-putt bogey, Oosthuizen played with remarkable poise on another windswept afternoon at St. Andrews. He never dropped another shot, never stopped smiling, and finished with a drive onto the 18th green for one last birdie and a 3-under 69. It gave him a four-shot lead over Paul Casey and put him one round away from becoming the first player in 46 years to capture his first major championship at the home of golf. This, from a player who had only made it to the weekend one time in eight previous majors. From a South African who had never won on the European Tour until four months ago. “I don’t think anyone was thinking I was going to be up there,” Oosthuizen said. “You’ve heard
yourself, no one can actually say my surname, so they don’t even know who I am out there. It’s great being up there. I just want to enjoy everything about it. I loved it out there. It was great fun for me. And hopefully, tomorrow will be the same.” Gary Player left him a message at his hotel. Els called Saturday morning for support, telling Oosthuizen to enjoy himself on a stage like no other in golf. Eight years after leaving the Els foundation, Oosthuizen still follows his instructions. Oosthuizen (WUHST-hy-zen) was at 15-under 201. A victory Sunday would make him the first player since Tony Lema in 1964 to win his first major at St. Andrews. “The Open at St. Andrews would be something special,” Oosthuizen said. “It’s one of those things you dream of.” Everyone kept waiting for him to fold, and the final test in the third round came on his second shot to the 17th green, where the pine was planted perilously behind the Road Hole bunker. With a slightly uphill lie, Oosthuizen couldn’t bounce the ball away from the bunker and onto the green. So he played it safe, riding a 5-iron with right-to-left wind, keeping it between the bunker in front of the green and road behind it. He didn’t mind that it ran through the green and onto the 18th tee, just as Casey was preparing to hit his tee shot. Casey smiled. Lee Westwood walked over to the ball and acted as if he was going to smash the ball back at Oosthuizen. “I’m loving the fact I’m playing absolutely great golf and I’m four shots behind Louis,” Casey said.
