Student Regent Jake Wellman said students should expect an increase in student fees next year to fund Athletics.

In an interview with the Daily Lobo, Wellman spoke about the pro-posed $50 increase in student fees going to the Athletics Department and the proposal he put before the Board of Regents to phase in the in-crease over three years to ease the � -nancial burden on students.

Daily Lobo: During the Budget Summit, you proposed increasing fees for the Athletics Department by $17 over the course of the next three years, rather than raising them by $50 in one year. Do you think the other regents will consider that proposal?

Jake Wellman: � e � nal motion that passed on (March) 23 called for a full increase next year. I think we considered all options that were presented and discussed at the re-gents’ budget summit.

Ultimately, (Board President Jack Fortner’s) proposed budget frame-work was approved as the regents’ collective direction for developing a comprehensive budget.

DL: How likely is it for students to see an athletics fee increase for next year?

GPSA Council chair elections beginby Luke [email protected]

GPSA electronic ballot elections began to-day and run until April 11. The Daily Lobo in-terviewed council chair candidates Michael Verrilli and Kris Miranda to find out where they stand on the issues.

Daily Lobo: Why did you decide to run for office?

Michael Verrilli: I’ve been involved with GPSA for the past three years now and have participated in many parts of the government. This felt like the most natural next step in serv-ing the student body.

Kris Miranda: I’ve found that I like working with groups of strong personalities, who all have distinct interests and viewpoints and skills. Council combines both of those

interests on a large scale. DL: What qualifies you for the office

and what makes you stand out from your opponent?

MV: Prior to entering UNM, I had years of experience as … a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselor in the State of New Mexico … and much of my time was spent facilitating groups. I see this as very similar to leading the (GPSA) council. It is important that all voices are heard and incorporated into the conver-sation, as well as to ensure that no one voice dominates it. I know my background has pre-pared me to do this.

KM: As a project assistant I’ve provided di-rect support to every executive committee and I keep all the chairs on the same page. I have a high level of familiarity with a wide range of GPSA services and capabilities, and I’m used to juggling the needs of many parties.

My involvement with GPSA has allowed me to have a hand in many student-serving initiatives and to build working relationships with many people who will still be around next year.

In that respect, I would have less transition work to do if I’m elected, and so I’d also be in a position to help make the incoming presi-dent’s transition a smooth one. If the transi-tion at the top is smooth, then the transition for the average grad student who needs GPSA’s services will be smooth.

DL: What are your three major goals for next year?

MV: I would like to see shorter council

meetings. I feel that particularly with the two new legislative committees that there is no reason that meetings should ever run more than three hours. Robert’s Rules requires that discussion be cut off if it becomes redundant. I don’t think I’ve ever seen this enforced.

Thousands of people from all over New Mexico lined outside of the El Santuario de Chimayó in Chimayó, N.M. to receive the holy dirt on Friday morning. The holy dirt is said to have miraclous healing powers, according to the El Santuario church.

Students can now earn discounts at restaurants and on merchandise for recycling used bottles.

The PepsiCo Dream Machine kiosks, located in the SUB, Johnson Gym and La Posada, reward students with points for recycling bottles and aluminum cans. According to the Dream Machine Facebook page, points can be contributed to charities or redeemed for discounts on entertainment, dining, lodging and travel through greenopolis.com.

In 2010, 92,906 tons of materi-als were collected by the UNM Re-cycling Department, a decrease from the 104,440 tons in 2009, ac-cording to the annual recycling re-port. Linda McCormick, resource conservation manager for the re-cycling department, said the Pep-siCo machines aim to increase the amount of recycling on campus by creating an incentive for students.

SUB employees and student organization Net Impact worked with PepsiCo to bring the Dream Machine kiosks to UNM.

Sunny Liu, vice president of Net Impact and an ASUNM senator, said the kiosks focus attention on recycling by making it rewarding.

“A lot of people just don’t find the incentive to (recycle), and I think that these machines will re-ally help reward those individuals who choose to recycle,” he said. “And those who don’t have incen-tive enough, this will give them a reason to.”

The PepsiCo Dream Machine Initiative debuted nationally on Earth Day in 2010, through a part-nership between PepsiCo and Waste Management. According to the Dream Machine website, the goal of the initiative is to increase the national recycling rate of bev-erage containers from 34 percent to 50 percent by 2018. So far, Pep-

siCo has put 4,000 Dream Machine kiosks and bins across the nation.

In addition to the Dream Ma-chine initiative, UNM’s Recycling Department began accepting #5 plastics, which include yogurt con-tainers, butter tubs and all types of batteries. McCormick said expand-ing the recycling program at UNM includes finding new types of recy-clable material and increasing the number of bins on campus.

“That’s always a big, important thing at UNM is to get more (bins) outside because we have students, staff and visitors walking from building to building, so we want to have recycling available where the people are,” she said.

The department collects recy-clable materials from departments across UNM. Paper, aluminum cans, plastic and glass bottles, cardboard, clothing, CD/DVDs, scrap metal, wooden pallets and other materials are collected and sent to organizations including Master Fibers, the Albuquerque Rescue Mission and the city of Al-buquerque to be reused or pro-cessed, according to the latest re-cycling report in 2010.

McCormick said recycling can save as much as 90 percent of the energy required to produce new products, and also creates job opportunities.

“If you were to look at the jobs generated by land-filling mate-rial, which is in essence wasting material, one job is generated by land-filling, whereas 17 jobs can be generated by recycling mate-rial because you can have jobs from collecting, processing recy-cled material, manufacturing and transportation,” she said.

The department also implemented the Reusable Office Supplies and Equipment program, which collects office supplies such as staplers, paper clips, and notebooks that can be reused.

In addition, the SUB has water-filling stations for students to refill

water bottles instead of buying new bottles.

4LAST WEEK’S POLL RESULTS:

THIS WEEK’S POLL:

The Supreme Court is debating the constitutionality of the President Obama’s health care law, particularly a part of the law that states almost all Americans need to either buy insurance or pay a � ne. Should the Supreme Court strike down the law?

Yes. This country was founded on freedom and forcing people to buy insurance violates that freedom.

Yes. The law is one step closer to a socialized health care system, and that will bring down the overall quality of health care in the U.S. and turn U.S. health care into a bureaucratic nightmare.

No. We’re forced to pay for roads, schools, social programs and wars through our tax dollars, so why is being forced to buy insurance all of a sudden a violation of the Constitution?

GO TODAILYLOBO.COM

TO VOTE

Out of 721 responses.

No. The law reforms the nation’s health care policies in ways that ensure greater access to a� ordable health care, an imperative change in the right direction.

This week’s poll question:Who are you going to vote for in the ASUNM elections on Wednesday, April 11?

Impact: presidential candidate Ashkii Hatathlievice president candidate Bridget Chavez

Students for Students: presidential candidate Caroline Muraida, vice predisential candidate Sunny Liu

LETTER

Editor,

I was interviewed for your articles “Long Ride” and “Boarders: Safety � rst when tempting fate,” (both published � ursday) and my entire last name was somehow turned from “Larsen” to

“Adler” in both articles, as well as in captions in online photos.

In addition, I was stated as not wearing safe-ty equipment while riding until after I seriously injured myself. � is is incorrect — I was always concerned about safety and wore safety gear be-fore and during that accident.

I stopped more dangerous types of long-boarding after the accident, but stating that it is the only thing that prompted me to wear safety gear is a misrepresentation of my character.

As far as the overall content of the articles, I suggest facts be checked. Recreational skating outside of skate parks in Albuquerque is permit-ted by law in most cases. � e focus in “Long Ride” about the illegality of the activity is incorrect and tarnishes what I hope was an attempt to highlight the positive aspects of longboarding in the stu-dent community and Albuquerque as a whole.

Longboarding articles misuse name, interview

by Chris Quintana Editor-in-chief

Needles, empty shooters and crushed malt li-quor cans litter the sun-streaked hills and roads that lead to the Santuario de Chimayó, perhaps the most holy pilgrimage site in New Mexico.

� e combination of beauty and trash captures the essence of the Santuario pilgrimage. A quick note for the unfamiliar, the Santuario is the end goal for Catholic pilgrims every year on Good Fri-day, but I digress.

On one hand the Santuario is a place of religion and spirituality. It’s home to the “el pocito,” a hole � lled with dirt said to have healing powers, according to the Santuar-io’s website and anyone who has ever passed through Española.

On the other hand, three separate gift shops hawk religious wares for passing tourists.

So this year, I set out to understand the nature of this journey. I followed the same path Archbishop Michael Sheehan, the current Archbishop of Santa Fe, traveled, an eight mile route from Santa Cruz to Chimayó.

I don’t think I have any more answers than when I � rst set out, but here are my observations.

Capitalism After pilgrims trek eight or so miles, the gates

of the Santuario beckon with cool refreshments and religious trinkets, at a price of course. Where-as along the route, volunteers from the commu-nities o� ered walkers free refreshments such as Gatorade and water, in the Santuario, water cost two bucks per 16 ounce bottle, if you were lucky enough to � nd the right vendor.

Peddlers sold about 6-inch candles for � ve bucks a pop, and the gift shops over� owed with walkers ready to empty their pockets. It’s not my place to say where capitalists are and aren’t, but their presence seemed to bastardize

the journey. After all, I found it hard to consider any sort of God while a man hawked snow cones, hot dogs and fried pork skins.

Sincerity Not every pilgrim went to the Santuario

for fried corn or plastic rosaries. Many told me they went for prayer. Walker Anthony Martinez walked with his 7-year-old daughter, Hannah, from Santa Cruz. � e path was muddy, and he often guided his daughter out of muddy patches with a well-placed hand. He said he has travelled to the Santuario for the last 33 years for prayer.

I didn’t push for a clari� cation. His answer was clear enough by the fact he rose at six in the morning to walk eight miles to share this tradi-tion with his daughter.

Others walked barefoot or carried cruci� xes during the journey. Still others ventured on foot from as far as Albuquerque. I couldn’t understand why people would in� ict such pain on themselves, but their sincerity shined through regardless.

Ethnocentrism Baptists and non-denominational Christians

waited along the path, and o� ered travelers reli-gious pamphlets.

One man, who only went by David, asked me, “If you die tomorrow, are you sure you’ll go to heaven?”

I asked him, “Are you Catholic? Are you doing the walk, too?”

He said he wasn’t, but that he was Christian just the same. He asked me to leave my walk and read the Bible with him, which I politely refused.Of course, not all walkers were polite. Farther along, a middle-aged woman o� ered an older man a pamphlet about Christianity. He asked, “You Catholic?”

� e woman hesitated a moment before she said, “ No, but we believe in the … ”

� e older man didn’t give her a chance to � n-ish. He pushed the pamphlet back in her hand

and kept walking.� e woman, undeterred, continued o� ering

pamphlets to anyone who passed. I dodged to the side of the road to avoid yet

another awkward conversation. KindnessMany people volunteered on the side of the

road. Some gave out Gatorade, and others o� ered assorted fruits and energy bars for the walkers. Most surprising to me were the Sikhs, followers of a religion from the Punjab region of South Asia. � ey have found a home in Española. I asked them why they were out if they weren’t Catholic.

“We are here for you guys. We respect and ad-mire your faith,” one of them said. I haven’t been a practicing Catholic for ages, but I still found the sentiment warming.

Other groups included volunteer � re� ght-ers from one of the small towns, local busi-ness owners and sometimes even just people who lived next to the road. Best of all, the giv-ers never charged the walkers for any of the goods they gave.

I can’t understand the giving sentiment, but I like it nonetheless.

� e end of a journey After I stood in line for half an hour to pay my

respects in the church, I � nally started thinking about what I had done.

� is introspection came after the journey was over. During the walk, I was too focused on walking. It sounds strange, but I hardly noticed any of things I noticed. I felt as though my mind was somewhere else the whole time, and maybe that’s the point of a pilgrimage.

Everyone makes of it what they will. So yeah, some will come to make money and buy trinkets, but some will come to carry on old traditions. And others may try to convert some walkers, but others will try to help the same walkers.

� e pilgrimage, I found, is beautiful and ugly, just like the rest of America.

Pondering the Chimayó pilgrimageCOLUMN

I am indi� erent.

DL: Why do you believe the board decided to keep that in-crease against the recommenda-tions of the SFRB and the presidents of GPSA and ASUNM?

JW: Every regent is entrusted with the fiduciary responsibility of the University. That responsibility is two-fold; to make sure that taxpayer and student money is spent wisely and to make sure that all of the units of the University have the resources to car-ry out their respective missions. The Athletics Department made the case that, due to rising costs of travel and student scholarships, combined with a hit from the state on their budget, they could not continue at the level of operation the University and state community expect of them with-out additional resources. In order to keep our student athletes, who bring diverse experiences and great talent to UNM, we needed to include an in-

crease in funding for Athletics in next year’s budget.

DL: What is your stance on the tu-ition increase?

JW: From my four years at UNM, this is the budget that most strongly aligns a modest tuition increase with helping students spend less time paying tuition at UNM. The 3.75 per-cent tuition increase will be reinvest-ed in two crucial initiatives.

First and foremost, the Provost’s Academic Affairs budget plan will allow the University to hire 20 ad-ditional faculty positions, create an Honors College, overhaul our ad-visement systems and help us keep our best professors. The best way to build a better University is to bring more faculty to share their knowl-edge with students and the state. That is precisely what this budget will accomplish.

Second, this tuition increase sets

aside 0.75 percent to offset students on need-based financial aid who would be financially impacted by an increase in tuition and fees. This policy of financial aid re-investment is the right way to keep UNM afford-able to students.

Overall, by investing in student success measures, we can help stu-dents save entire years of tuition by graduating in four years.

DL: What is the most important part of next year’s budget in terms of how it will affect student success at the University?

JW: The Provost’s Academic Affairs budget wedge (is the most important part of next year’s budget). The faculty and advisers it will bring to students and the financial aid re-investment policy are the elements that make this budget a transformative one for the University and students.

Wellman from page 1

GPSA from page 1because the parts are so different and distinct to begin with. I want to cultivate many strong links within council, help them decide on some shared goals and then see what happens when they have the support and the space to do their thing.

I want to build bridges. As a project assistant I’ve learned that GPSA’s best work is done in tan-dem with other organizations, and I want to use my experience working on things like the SFRB and Women in the Academy (a conference of women in academ-ics) to develop stronger ties be-tween council and other campus groups.

I want to make council work more personal. Many represen-tatives see each other just once a month to go over a big agen-da that they might not have had much time or incentive to look over, and although the Legislative Steering Committee and the Fi-nance Committee have done a lot to get more people involved in the details, that still leaves many folks who don’t necessarily feel a sense of ownership of what council does

for students. DL: What would you change

about the way GPSA is run?MV: I don’t know how much

more I would change. I feel that there have been some truly signif-icant changes in the way that the GPSA runs from last year to this.

While most of these changes have been implemented smooth-ly, there is still room to improve. I would like to see the social oppor-tunities grow and want to point to the work that Travis McIntyre and Grace Lerner did this past week as a wonderful example of this.

I encourage all graduate stu-dents who have time to either at-tend any of this month’s happy hours or the April 14 volleyball game to do so.

KM: I would want next year’s president and council chair to have much more frequent and more mutually respectful com-munication than this year’s. I would want to make council members more comfortable with coming into the GPSA office and with providing services to stu-dents outside of a strictly legisla-tive format. In terms of my goals

of making council a stronger team and making council work more personal, I’m interested in es-tablishing a few informal work-ing groups with end-of-semester goals determined by council.

DL: GPSA Council Chair Megan O’Laughlin submitted a contract to pay her own tuition from GPSA funds before the council had approved funding for the measure, but the Legislative Steering Committee found no wrongdoing in the subsequent investigation. Do you believe she intentionally did something wrong, or was it a miscommunication?

MV: I feel that we created the Legislative Steering Committee to deal with issues precisely as this and trust that the conclusion they came to was the correct one.

KM: I’m skeptical that there was any intentional violation of GPSA laws. Frankly, this late in the year I’d just like to move past it. If people want to issue formally written opinions publicly or internally, fine, but anything more concrete is an inefficient use of council’s time and energy.

San Antiono sacks the Jazz

Darren Abate / AP PhotoSan Antonio Spurs’ Tony Parker (9), of France, shoots over Utah Jazz’s Devin Harris and Paul Millsap (24) during the second half of an NBA basketball game, Sunday, in San Antonio.

by Paul J. WeberThe Associated Press

SAN ANTONIO — Tony Park-er scored 28 points and the San Antonio Spurs won their 11th straight game, beating the Utah Jazz 114-104 on Sunday night to maintain their slim lead atop the Western Conference.

Manu Ginobili added 23 points for the Spurs, who are now on their second 11-game win streak — a season best in the NBA. But unlike that first 11-game tear that started in January, the Spurs are now fighting off the Oklahoma City Thunder for first place in-stead of trying to catch them.

Al Jefferson led the Jazz with 19 points and 10 rebounds. Utah dropped one and a half games be-hind Denver for the eighth and fi-nal playoff spot with nine games to go.

The Spurs (40-14), who face the Jazz again in Salt Lake City on Monday night, have played two more games than the Thun-der (41-15). San Antonio overtook Oklahoma City in the standings for the first time all season Friday and owns the tiebreaker with 12 games remaining.

Expect to see the Spurs cashing in on their new stockpile of depth between now and then. Coach

Gregg Popovich sat starting cen-ter DeJuan Blair for the first time this season, and newcomer Ste-phen Jackson didn’t play, either. Resting them may portend a night off for one of the Big Three on Monday night.

Tim Duncan had 13 points and 16 rebounds, and Danny Green had 14 points. Ginobili was 14 of 15 from the foul line, saying he made the conscious decision to attack the basket, in part, because he’s essentially trying to get used to absorbing physical contact af-ter missing 30 games this year be-cause of injury.

“I’m trying to start to be more aggressive going to the rim. I haven’t been fouled much,” Gino-bili said.

Devin Harris had 18 points and reserve DeMare Carroll had 16 for the Jazz. Guard C.J. Miles left in the second quarter with a strained left calf and did not return.

Six of Utah’s remaining games are against winning teams. The Jazz (29-28) are trying to return to the playoffs for the first time in three years and are poised to decide their own fate if they get there. Utah still has meetings left against Dallas, Phoenix and Hous-ton, all of whom entered Sunday within one and a half games of each other.

The Jazz trailed by as many as 19 but made a game of it in the fourth. Utah cut the lead to 108-100 with around 2 minutes left, but after Duncan pulled down his 15th rebound on a missed Gordon Hayward jumper, Parker scored the final six points to finish off the pesky Jazz.

Parker went 9 of 14 from the floor and hit all 10 of his foul shots.

Popovich has insisted that health will trump seeding down the stretch, but the Spurs keep winning in spite of his trying to limit the mileage on his stars be-fore the playoffs. San Antonio is one of just four teams with at least 10 players averaging 19 minutes — New York’s the only other win-ning one — and a rare Spurs mid-season shopping spree has giv-en them the luxury of even more depth.

Boris Diaw scored 9 points in his first start since signing with the Spurs on March 23. Along with Jackson and point guard Patty Mills, the Spurs are 11-1 since giv-ing their bench a facelift around the trade deadline.

In all, the Spurs have won 28 of 33 since beginning their first 11-game winning streak Jan. 30.

Men’s golfTEMPE, Ariz. — UNM’s No. 19

men’s golf team finished the week-end tied for second place in the Ar-izona State University Thunderbird Invitational.

UNM tied with No. 13 San Diego State, finishing -8 overall. No. 6 Cal-ifornia won the invitational with a final score of -17.

Junior John Catlin led the Lobos, finishing in eighth place with a -4 score over the three rounds. Fresh-man Victor Perez finished in 16th place and junior James Erkenbeck placed 19th.

Women’s tennisLARAMIE, Wyo. — The women’s

tennis team got its first victory in the MWC this season with a 4-3 win over Colorado State on Saturday.

After losing four straight match-es to open up conference play, the Lobos took the doubles point and never looked back.

The Lobos got straight set vic-tories on the first and second courts from sophomore Michaela

Bezdickova and freshman Maria Sablina, respectively.

The Lobos dropped matches on courts three through five. With the scores tied at three, the action end-ed on the sixth court where junior Michaela Oldani won 7-5 and 6-3, to give UNM the victory.

BaseballCOLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. —

The baseball team won two of its three games against the Air Force Academy over the weekend.

On Thursday, the Lobos domi-nated the game, winning 19-0. UNM had 23 hits, scored in every inning except the ninth and held Air Force to just four hits. Sophomore first baseman DJ Peterson finished 4-5, with five runs batted in.

Junior pitcher Austin House was credited with the win.

On Friday, UNM continued its offensive burst, winning 17-2. The Lobos jumped out to an early eight-run lead in the first three innings and never seemed in danger of sur-rendering its lead.

Junior infielder Josh Melendez led the offense, going 4-5 with two runs batted in and sophomore pitcher Josh Walker was credited with the win.

After scoring 36 runs in its first two games, the Lobos’ offense disap-peared as they lost 1-0 on Saturday.

The Falcons scored the lone run in the fourth inning and held UNM to just four hits. Four Lobos fin-ished with one hit each and senior pitcher Gera Sanchez was credited with the loss, his first of the season.

SoftballNORTHRIDGE, Calif. — After

dropping four straight games last weekend, the softball team won both of its games against Cal State Northridge on Sunday.

In the first game of the double-header, UNM easily took the game 5-1. a scare as the Matadors scored four in the last inning. However, it wasn’t enough; UNM won 12-10.

In the men’s 1500 meter run, sophomore Gabe Aragon finished sixth with a 3:59.98 mark, and won his heat with a win over Western State’s Gabe Proctor by three hun-dredths of a second.

In the second lap, Aragon took the lead on turn four and held it until Proctor overtook him on the second straightaway of lap three.

Aragon found an extra burst to retake the lead and pulled out the win by narrowly edging past Proc-tor at the finish line.

“He got out there and I just tried to stay relaxed and keep my composure,” Aragon said. “I found a kick that I never have normally and he came back up on me, but I was barely able to hold him off.”

However, Aragon ran unattached as both he and Franklin decided

he should redshirt this outdoor track season.

“This way it gives him two more years at the University of New Mex-ico and he just keeps getting better and better,” Franklin said.

In the women’s steeplechase, two Lobos finished in the top five as junior Imogen Ainsworth placed second with a 10:51.72 time, and Emma Reed finished fourth with a 11:20.12 time.

Ainsworth’s mark moved her into fifth all-time in the Lobo re-cord books, above Reed.

The Lobos also had four top 10 finishers in the women’s pole vault, with sophomore Margo Tucker tied for second with a 12-6.75 mark.

In the men’s 4x100 relay, the team composed of freshman

sprinter Beejay Lee, Spencer, ju-nior sprinters De’Vron Walker and Lamaar Thomas finished third, with a time of 41.13 seconds.

The Lobos had a chance for vic-tory as Walker handed off the baton to Thomas at the same time as the runners from Wayland Baptist and Grand Canyon University handed off their batons.

Thomas couldn’t hold his speed down the final stretch, and he finished five hundredths of a second behind Grand Canyon’s Dominique Hubert, the winner.

Franklin said the race could have gone better.

“It went okay,” he said. “I wouldn’t say that it went great by any sense of the imagination.”

How can such old stars know such new things?

Weekly Horoscopesby Alexandra Swanberg

[email protected]

Capricorn—You’re on to some-thing great that may have ripple effects that extend beyond your corner of the world. For once, you feel you’re on a roll, but you would be wise to keep tabs on the motives of people volunteer-ing their services. If it seems they could benefit at your expense, be careful about how large a role you grant them in your life. Take advantage of your time in the spotlight.Aquarius—It seems you’re hav-ing trouble shaking a bad habit that’s draining your vitality slowly but surely. Like a tick nestled into your skin, you may not notice right away how detrimental this habit is until it swells, becom-ing harder to remove. Do men-tal searches of everything you do habitually, combing for any-thing not conducive to the life of which you dream. Extract while you can.Pisces—If you’re feeling alien-ated from your environment and the people you share it with this week, you won’t be doing your-self a favor confining yourself to solitude. This is the equivalent of emotional eating — a comfort but not a fix. Ease your anxiety by get-ting whatever it is off your chest with a stranger, uncensored. This catharsis will liberate your soul, unfettered by petty worries and resulting neuroses.Aries—Your sense of self has inflated the past couple weeks, enough to take your mind off your own affairs. Everything in your life is in order for the moment. Now that you’ve got enough mental space left for the concerns of others, you feel ex-cessively generous and loving. This is a welcome change for friends and family who you’ve relied on heavily for support, so

give all you can, not as repayment but because they deserve it.Taurus—As modest as you like to be, you’ve got a gentle ego that re-lies on structure and order to feel secure. Others may be expecting you to act outside the box in the next week, particularly professors or bosses. Someone had to rock the boat before you fell asleep at sea. Shaken as you may be, you’ll un-derstand in a few weeks why this is a necessary evil. With that in mind, warmly embrace change.Gemini—Random acts of kind-ness, whether you’re the receiver or giver, will be your life source this week. On the other hand, any nega-tivity you’re forced to contend with will be a great drain on this essen-tial resource. Try not to let others get you down. Instead, do your best to make light of them, a private joke that adds even more sunshine to your vibrant mood. Cancer—Any accomplishments or progress you’ve achieved over the past couple weeks may become in-significant to you in retrospect. This is not because they were indeed tri-fles. Your crestfallenness may have more to do with the jealousy of an-other trying to rain on your parade. Even if it seems utterly unrealistic, think only the best of yourself and it follows that you will do the best you are capable of doing.Leo—The last few months have been all about self-improvement, evaluating your strengths and do-ing your best to crush your weak-nesses. You’ve made significant progress, although the whole pro-cess has put a damper on your typi-cally light-hearted spirit. Lift this mood by getting in touch with your inner child. Make it a habit to let go of “real world” expectations once in a while to keep your spirit alive and well.Virgo—The satisfaction you get

from a job well done is admittedly addicting to you. Mars has been in your sign for months now, en-hancing this mentality. You’ve produced a solid body of accom-plishment as a result, but it’s time to let other areas of your life get some of the attention. Start think-ing about what you’re missing, but wait until the next new moon to work toward it.Libra—Grim daydreams and di-minished sense of self-worth have got you feeling lethargic and blank. It may not be appar-ent where this is all coming from. As it goes with anything lost, you may find the answer coming to you when you’re least expecting it. Force yourself to be active, do what you love, talk it out, laugh. Whatever you do, don’t dwell, and in the midst of this, your source of solace will reveal itself.Scorpio—Lately, you’ve been more comfortable than usual sharing yourself and your resourc-es with friends, acquaintances and even strangers. However, expect to feel somewhat resentful through-out the week as people are either taking advantage of your kindness or unaware of how much of an im-position they can be. At that point, draw yourself back in and learn to be alone again. Learn to respect your boundaries.Sagittarius—You’re usually will-ing to tell people what they want to hear, either to preserve your reputation or to keep the relation-ship on an even keel. With the sun in Aries, more and more you’ve allowed yourself to be honest, which was refreshing, at first. The key is to maintain a sense of tact and diplomacy — there are ways to tell people the truth without stepping on toes.

Kendall Spencer only need-ed one jump to make history at the Don Kirby Invitational track meet this past Saturday.

Spencer, the national indoor long jump champion, jumped past a national best, and snagged the second longest jump in the world this year with a 26-foot, 9.25-inch mark.

Spencer said his hard work is reflected in his performances in both the indoor and outdoor track seasons.

“It feels good. God has been really good to me up to this point,” Spencer said. “I feel great working hard, and practice is go-ing well. It has really shown.”

Head coach Joe Franklin said Spencer is in the zone right now, with the way he is jumping.

“Kendall is in a good spot. It was the top jump in the country right now, college or profession-al,” Franklin said. “He may be one of the top (jumpers) in the world.”

The jump also tied the 47-year-old school record set by Clarence Robinson in 1965 and has an Olympic A standard, which means he automatically qualifies for the Olympics if he finishes in the top three at the U.S. Olympic Trials this summer.

In her � rst ever steeplechase race, UNM junior long distance runner Imogen Ainsworth snagged second place and set the � fth fastest time in UNM history.

� e seven-lap race includes 28 jumping barri-ers and seven water jumps, and Ainsworth battled elevation, exhaustion and inexperience to � nish second at the Don Kirby Tailwind Invitational. Her 10:51.72 � nish put her in the record books.

“I was actually really happy with how that went,” Ainsworth said. “I didn’t know what to expect, see-ing as I hadn’t done it before.”

Head coach Joe Franklin said that after a cou-ple practice sessions and some training, the Brit-ish native found herself competing in the 3,000-meter steeplechase on Saturday. It turns out she’s a natural.

“We thought, ‘let’s have her do it at the home meet because it’s pretty low-key’,” Franklin said. “She ended running one of the top times in the country.”

Ainsworth said she didn’t realize the steeple-chase was such a di� cult race. She said the � nal two laps were grueling.

“She was in a lot of pain,” Franklin said. “I was thinking, ‘Oh my goodness, I hope she doesn’t fall over.’ But she kept on trucking along and did a good job.”

Ainsworth is one the three female athletes Franklin said could have a breakthrough outdoor track and � eld season. He said Margo Tucker and Shirley Pitts are the other two.

After struggling with the 5k run early in the sea-son, Ainsworth said that after Saturday’s perfor-mance the steeplechase might be the race to help her get to the next level.

“Maybe this is the event where I can do it,” Ainsworth said. “And it’s exciting because it’s a much bigger thing out here than it is at home.”

Ainsworth was born in London, England. At age 13, she said she started running and never stopped.

At the European Cross Country Champion-ships, she met Lobo runners Sarah Waldron and Natalie Gray, and said she called coach Franklin about joining the squad.

After almost a full year living in New Mexico, Ainsworth said other than the altitude and surviv-ing Albuquerque without a car, she’s grown fond of the state.

“I really love it,” Ainsworth said. “It took me maybe a couple of weeks to get used to it because it’s just so di� erent from everything back home, but I really love it now. It’s going to be hard to leave.”

Ainsworth earns her master’s degree in geogra-phy next spring and plans to move back home.

Her two performances this weekend, in the steeplechase and the 800-meter, contributed to the team’s 29 top-10 � nishes over the weekend.

Franklin said he hopes to have Ainsworth ready to run in a couple weeks in California, where he said racing at sea level could help her cut her time signi� cantly.

Teammate Ruth Senior, who made the national championships in the steeplechase a couple years ago, won the 3,000-meter steeplechase in the Sun Angel Classic over the weekend in Tempe, Ariz. with a time of 10:43.60.

Emma Reed � nished fourth place, behind Ainsworth on Saturday. Reed, Senior and Ainsworth could be key players for the Lobos in the conference championships next month.

“We could have a very good 1-2-3 group of women,” Franklin said.

Franklin said as soon as he saw Ainsworth prac-tice for the steeplechase, he knew he had found something special.

“Some people are just natural hurdlers, and Imogen is one of those,” Franklin said. “I think she can be one of the better steeplers in the country.”

Adria Malcolm/ Daily LoboSenior Chris Dodds competes in pole vault Saturday afternoon at the Lobo Track and Field Arena. Dodds � nished in seventh place with a 15-3 vault.

Adria Malcolm / Daily LoboFreshman Yeshemabet Turner competes in the women’s triple jump on Saturday at the Lobo Track and Field Arena. Turner � nished in sixth place with a jump of 18-11.75.
