� e Mountain West Conference issued UNM head basketball coach Steve Alford a public reprimand for “unduly” verbal language aimed at BYU senior Jonathan Tavernari, after the Lobos defeated the Cougars at the Provo, Utah Marriott Center on Saturday, 83-81.

Alford’s actions were in violation of the Mountain West Conference’s sportsmanship rules, according to a statement sent out by the

conference in an e-mail.During postgame handshakes, Alford and

Tavernari were involved in a verbal spat which was broadcast on television because Tavernari refused to shake Alford’s hand, the Albuquer-que Journal reported.

“You’re an asshole,” Alford yelled at Tavernari, before the two were separated by members of their respective sta� s.

Greg Remington, associate Athletics di-rector of media relations, said Alford will ad-dress the reprimand after UNM hosts TCU

on Wednesday.Under Rule 4 in the MWC Handbook, Alford

won’t be further penalized, but subsequent of-fenses would result in a two-game suspension, according to MWC provisions.

Before the reprimand was issued, Alford said in Monday’s news confer-ence he apologized to Tavernari and BYU head coach Dave Rose over the phone.

“I think what happens is you get in the heat of the moment and you have two big teams � ghting like crazy, and they are two competitive teams,” Alford said. “� e

unfortunate thing is we are all competitors, and we don’t like each other when we are compet-ing. It’s not like I was rooting for BYU, and they were rooting for UNM. It’s a shame in a college basketball game of that magnitude, somebody had to lose, because that was a great college basketball game.”

Preceding the altercation between Alford and Tavernari, junior-college transfer Dar-ington Hobson had an exchange with Tavern-ari, after Tavernari attempted to steal the ball from Hobson. � e two tussled before being restrained.

Emily McMaster/Junior/PrintmakingDaily Lobo Spotlight

Daily Lobo: So what it is you study at UNM?

Emily McMaster: I am studying printmaking.

DL: How did you get into printmaking?

EM: I’ve been studying printmaking in New York for two years. I am only here for this next semester. I was tak-ing lithography last semester, which is really nice because we didn’t have that at the school I was going to, and the department here is fantastic.

DL: So how did you find yourself here?

EM: I grew up here. DL: Do you like New York

or New Mexico better? EM: It depends. I think the

print department here is of higher quality than the one I was working at. But … I really enjoyed all the resources in New York.

DL: Can you give me an example?

EM: I was going to school upstate actually, and it’s about two hours up north of New York City on the Hud-son River. There’s a train out of New York City, so I can go to different print studios, dif-ferent print shops, different

museums and visit artists’ studios — kind of soak in the culture up there.

DL: Is the culture radically different here?

EM: It’s not that it’s radi-cally different. It’s just there’s not the abundance of art there is in New York City, and everything (is) sequestered to one island.

DL: The art scene isn’t as prominent in Albuquerque, but it’s still there. Do you ever do the First Friday Artscrawl?

EM: I haven’t done that. I am kind of a square when it comes to Albuquerque, but I know there’s a bed of tal-ent. Even here at UNM, I have seen some really awesome openings.

DL: So what else is differ-ent about UNM?

EM: The school here at UNM is much larger than the school I was going to, so you just have an array of art-ists making work as opposed to just a handful. There are like 15 art majors in my grade where I was going.

DL: Where were you going?

EM: Bard (College).DL: So what’s the

community like here compared to New York?

EM: Well, the community here is much more tight-knit — it depends if you’re talking about New York City. The college I was going to was in the middle of the forest, so everyone

knew everyone.DL: So out of curiosity who has

better food, here or there? EM: At the school I was going to, I

ate mainly on campus, so it was ba-gels and pizza pretty much everyday. And here I am kind of sick of all the

food in the area. I don’t have a car or bike so I am on foot, but in New York City you can get anything at any hour. So, I kind of miss that.

NOW ENROLLING: 8-week UNM classes at KAFB

by Tricia Remark Daily Lobo

A steaming slice of pizza wasn’t the only thing on students’ minds at lunchtime on Monday. ASUNM hosted a student forum, or town hall, to give students the opportu-nity to voice their opinions to stu-dent leaders in the SUB at noon.

Students stepped up to the mi-crophone for topics ranging from parking costs to energy use.

Student David Bracken said he has seen the South Lot bus driv-ers drop students off and then go on break during peak transporta-tion hours. He said delays in trans-portation are unacceptable to stu-dents, especially those who have jobs on and off campus.

“It takes forever to get to cam-pus,” Bracken said. “I can’t get on and off campus in enough time.”

Three Master Plan commit-tee members answered ques-tions from the audience, as well as ASUNM senators.

“We’d really like to hear from you so we can take that input and incorporate it into the Master Plan,” said Will Gleason, a plan-ning consultant for the Master Plan, at the town hall.

Mary Kenney, UNM planning

officer, said she will meet with City Councilor Isaac Benton to discuss different transportation options for students. She said the Master Plan will put an emphasis on stu-dents using alternative transpor-tation such as bikes and buses, which will decrease the need for cars.

“This is not just a UNM chal-lenge. It’s a metro area challenge,” she said.

Kenney said more than 50,000 people travel to the UNM main campus every day, which also af-fects the speed of transportation.

Students also advocated for making UNM a more environmen-tally-friendly campus.

Michael Polikoff, University planner, said the Master Plan will use three different methods to make the campus greener.

All future buildings on campus must be LEED Silver certified, he said. LEED, or Leadership in En-ergy and Environmental Design, rates how green a building is. Sil-ver is the third highest ranking a building can receive, according to the LEED Web site. UNM may one day be able to generate energy from wind, he said.

Students should be able to live, work and play without a car,

Polikoff said. He said improved transportation, more students liv-ing on campus and better bike pathways are the key to going carless.

Polikoff said the Master Plan designates Redondo Boulevard as a bicycle boulevard.

Student Shane Maier said a shuttle pathway proposed in the plan connects Central Avenue to Lomas Boulevard, which would disturb students walking and bik-ing on main campus.

According to the plan, the shut-tle would run through UNM and cut through the walkway between the Duck Pond and Zimmerman Library.

Gleason said the shuttle that cuts through campus is one of the most controversial aspects of the plan.

“It’s another way to connect north and south campus,” he said. “It would have to be done with the lightest possible touch so it doesn’t interfere with the setting of the Duck Pond and huge pedes-trian setting at Yale Mall.”

then they kind of recanted. They didn’t know if it was a gun; they only saw something silver,” he said. “We don’t even know what happened.”

Haarhues said it’s possible the boy was just having a tantrum and was being scolded by a parent or guardian.

However, a witness, who pre-ferred to remain anonymous un-til the gunman is caught, said the suspect and the boy walked within three feet of her. She said the boy was not having a tantrum, because he wasn’t trying to get away.

Also, she said the boy was wear-ing a cloth or some other materi-al over his face, which she inter-preted as a sign that he was under duress.

Haarhues confirmed that the anonymous witness shared a simi-lar story with UNMPD officers.

The witness said she and sev-eral other people in the vicinity called 9-1-1 after seeing the man.

Student Chris Feely said a dif-ferent woman ran into a class-room and asked students to call UNMPD.

“This lady came in and she

was like, ‘There’s a man out there with a gun and a mask on his face pointing (the gun) at some little boy’s head,’” Feely said. “Every-body in the class just started bust-ing out their phones and calling everybody. I walked out there, but I didn’t see anything.”

Haarhues said UNMPD alerted the Albuquerque Police Depart-ment, as the man and the boy were reported to have gone off campus.

Nadine Hamby, APD spokes-woman, said no APD officers were sent to the scene after they received the alert.

Students voice transportation woes

Smith said the legislature is looking to save $100 million in govern-ment spending, which would mean a 3 percent cut for state agencies, 2.5 percent cut for higher education and a 2 percent cut for public education.

Perhaps the most controversial revenue enhancement is the food tax, a measure that would put a tax on cer-tain grocery items, like � our tortillas and macaroni noodles.

� ough the state does not plan to impose a food tax, lawmakers are considering taking back $17 to $100 million currently given to New Mexi-co cities. � is money is given to com-pensate for the lost food tax revenue that the state stopped several years ago. � e legislature now plans to al-low municipalities to tax food up to 2 percent to make up for the dollars they would no longer be receiving.

Rep. Brian Egolf (D-Santa Fe) said the food tax is unpopular in the House. He said House members would rather consider upper income tax changes, which failed in the house during the regular session.

“� oughts evolve,” he said. “If I am going to be in a position to say I raised your taxes, I want to be able to say I raised your taxes so we didn’t have to cut the schools.”

Rep. Je� Steinborn (D-Dona Ana), said that although there is still much disagreement, both bodies are work-ing hard to reach a consensus.

“It looks like there is some un-derstanding between the House

leadership and Senate leadership,” he said. “� e process now is they are trying to get a buy in from their caucuses.”

Roch said rather than raising rev-enue to meet spending demands, Republicans would prefer to bring spending demands down to � t within the budget.

“� ey are still trying to convince people that raising taxes in a tough economy is a good idea. I don’t think it is a good idea,” he said.

Roch said Republicans were not heard during the 30-day session, leav-ing Democrats responsible for not reaching a budget agreement.

“When we put forth cost-saving measures and they never make it out of committee, then whose fault really is it for not cutting the budget appro-priately?” he said.

Egolf said the legislature’s $50,000 per day operation is only budgeted through Wednesday, but he hopes to reach an agreement in that time frame.

“We convened. If there was no hope then we wouldn’t have con-vened, we wouldn’t have even started the process,” he said.

� e advances in technology each day are ab-solutely incredible. We have come to the point where, if we think outside of the box, we can help developing countries take the � rst step in creating a healthier population.

What am I talking about?

Paper “chip” technology:George Whitesides, a chemistry professor

at Harvard University, has successfully merged an entire medical laboratory’s worth of equip-ment into a paper chip no bigger than the size of a � ngerprint.

According to a CNN story, “Phones, paper ‘chips’ may � ght disease,” Whitesides � nished developing the prototype for the paper “chip” technology this year. � e paper chip can be used in developing countries to test for diseases and their severity in patients. � e chip will test for diseases such as HIV, malaria, tuberculosis, hepatitis and gastroenteritis.

� is contraption costs about a penny to manufacture and is expected to be available in a year.

It’s simple — patients place a drop of blood on one side of the paper. � e other side of the paper will then turn into a colorful pattern shaped like a tree. Depending on the colors, the chip can tell medical professionals whether people are infected with a speci� c disease and how severe their disease is.

If patients can’t get to their doctors to trans-late the information, they can take pictures of the color pattern and send it to their physicians for review. Whitesides said he is also working with cell phone makers to develop an app that would give patients their results immediately instead of waiting on their doctor.

DIY adjustable eyeglasses:Josh Silver, a physics professor at Oxford Uni-

versity, invented a special set of eyeglasses that patients can manipulate to � t their personal pre-scription, according to � e Guardian’s “Inven-tor’s 2020 vision: to help 1 billion of the world’s

poorest see better.” People would no longer need to use expensive equipment from an opti-cian’s o� ce to determine their prescription.

Silver found that the fatter the lens, the more powerful it becomes. Inside the plastic lens-es are two clear circular sacs � lled with � uid, which are connected to a small syringe attached to the arms of the glasses.

� e wearer puts the glasses on and simply increases or reduces the amount of � uid in the sacs, which in turn changes the prescription be-ing used. � e syringe is then removed and the person can go about their daily work. � e glass-es cost about $1 each.

Portable water � lter:LifeStraw, created by the Danish company

Vestergaard Frandsen, is a thick plastic straw that acts as a portable water � lter. � is device al-lows people from developing countries to safe-ly drink from polluted bodies of water and have clean water.

� e � lter takes out more than 99 percent of life-threatening waterborne bacteria and virus-es, along with other particles. Each � lter costs about $3.50 and lasts about a year — � ltering about 2 liters per day. � e � lter is also said to be easy to clean, as well as the puri� er cartridge.

According to Vestergaard Frandsen’s Web site, the � lter was created in the hopes of erad-icating the Guinea worm disease, which is a painful infection caused by waterborne para-sites. � e parasites create a blister, which peo-ple try to clean in polluted water. Cleaning the wound with dirty water stimulates the worms to emerge and release their larvae.

What do these medical advances mean to

the developing world?Trained specialists are in such high demand

in impoverished countries that they are hard to come by when people need them the most. People usually have to travel great distances, by public transportation or foot, to access any sort of medical clinic.

Many diagnostic tests are also too expensive for people in developing countries to a� ord. � is crisis makes countless numbers of people

go undiagnosed and without treatment until the disease is at its peak.

� ese innovations can provide people in the poorest areas of the world with the treat-ment they so desperately need. It can give them the ability to have clean drinking water with-out the fear of getting sick. (Keep in mind that more than 1 billion people in the world don’t have access to safe drinking water, according to the Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council.)

It can give them the ability to see late at night while they work their trade to make $2 to $4 a day. It can let their doctor know, no matter how far the medical clinic is, the condition of their health and what medical supplies or medicine they need.

But it can also assist countries that provide aid to � ird World countries. It can assure that people have the correct prescription need-ed, instead of receiving secondhand eyeglass-es, which aren’t guaranteed to give the wearer clear vision. It can help other countries donate the medicine that is in the highest demand. It can even help natural disaster survivors receive clean drinking water, if nothing else.

However, countries with the money and capability to give these devices to � ird World countries aren’t going to give these medical technological devices away for free forever. No matter how small the manufacturing cost is. Af-ter a while, one penny and one dollar will quick-ly add up, especially when you take into account the billions of people who need it. � is isn’t in-cluding all of the people within our own neigh-borhoods that need access to these essential things as well.

Governments of � ird World countries need to step it up and create awareness. � ey need to let other countries know in-depth informa-tion of their medical capabilities and propose solutions to get their hands on these devices. If they let the whole world know their situation, I’m sure wealthy governments can � gure some sort of exchange. Or maybe wealthy countries will realize that health is more important than pro� t and the cost of these devices will become scalable.

UNM junior BillyJoe Miller is working toward a Bachelor’s in Fine Arts in painting and photog-raphy. His installation, “Tomorrow is Spring,” opens Friday at 7 p.m. at the Normal Gallery. The show is a multimedia conglomeration of photography, painting and found photos that have been altered dig-itally, as well as other visual proj-ects set amid antique furniture. Local bands Hedia and North America are also playing looped-cellos and electronic instruments at the show. It’s an occasion to dress up — wear something old and something new, Miller said.

Daily Lobo: You have a lot of an-tique objects in your home and in your art. Why is that and what is the appeal?

BillyJoe Miller: It’s the fact that more love was put into objects a while back, before the era of mass production. You‘d see something someone made by hand and put love and energy into (in) a more personal way. I feel the same way with build-ings and pretty much all the objects produced today. That doesn’t mean that people today aren’t doing just as wonderful things. It’s just not as often. It’s not the mainstream way of creating objects. So it’s not at all that I am interested just in antiques, it’s more that I am interested in objects made with integrity or love. Older objects tend to have that for me. I also really like just what time does to objects.

DL: Yeah, I’ve heard that you can tell certain eras just based on the color of the photo.

BM: That’s a good point, be-cause when I go to antique stores different dealers are like, ‘Well this is from the thirties because this is when they were doing the egg.’ I am attracted to that, not just exclusive-ly, but that’s definitely a part I am drawn to. I am totally drawn to the fact that you end with this … I have this image of a man in a field, and he’s in a rye field, and his hands are thrown up in the air. He’s all but lost in the field and he’s waving for attention. It’s a tiny little photo that I have found, and I blew it up really big for the show. But the idea that he’s in this little field and he’s this little man and he’s waving and I just have that trace of him, and there’s something about that that is so ex-citing to me. I don’t know if “excit-ing” is the right word, but it almost feels like he’s trying to communi-cate. Sometimes, with the people in the photos, there’s almost that feel-ing that they want to communicate something back to me.

DL: So are you interested in communicating with your photog-raphy in the same way?

BM: I definitely am interested in leaving something for people for when I am not here. I like to think that I’ll leave something that can be in conversation with something that was left a hundred years before what I leave.

DL: Can you give me an example?

BM: What happened was I found this old picture of this man on a cliff and I put it into my com-puter because I was going to alter it and work with it. And I took my iPod out too quick, and it made this green line go straight through the picture of the man on the cliff. It felt so special to me because one, it was time now, technology now showing its mark on an image. And in that sense, to answer your question, a hundred years ago it would be the

age of the photo and maybe a hun-dred years from now they’ll see my iPod line, green, going through the picture.

DL: So you do a pretty interest-ing thing. You combine the past with the present. What’s that like?

BM: If you just have the old pic-ture you get more of a feeling of nostalgia, and I am not interested in nostalgia … I am working with a feeling and bringing it into now, and so the man and the green line, even though it’s this old photo, it feels very present to me. I am inter-ested in the fact that (the photo is) like a window. Nostalgia is a long-ing for the past, and what I am in-terested (in) isn’t a longing, but just an interest in that other world, and in this moment, this fragment that someone leaves by a photograph.

DL: So tell me how you find these photos or fragments from the past.

BM: Hunting or searching for the photo is a really fun part of it. I go to an estate sale, thrift store, antique store and I also do Hospice, so I am confronted with an older genera-tion, which is actually a fairly ma-jor part of this interest because I am constantly around 90 year olds who are on their way out.

DL: Oh, can you tell me about working for Hospice more? How has it affected you?

BM: Hospice is nurses coming to your home to take care of you. Walking into a space definitely has affected me. A lot of times you walk into a space, and you know

Shine up your snowshoes and snowboards, because the Outdoor and Bike Shop is having its second annual Gear In Gear Out sale.

Noel Ortiz, one of the sale co-ordinators, said there were about 1,200 participants last year.

“Sales last year ranged from $50 to $600, depending on how much the equipment was and how much it brought in,” he said. “It’s basical-ly an opportunity to get rid of old stuff and purchase newer stuff — or to just get rid of your old gear to make some revenue to buy some stuff for the next season.”

Charles Gwinn, student em-ployee at the shop, said he came up with the concept for the sale last year.

“I came to UNM in fall 2008 and wanted to spice things up around here,” he said. “I thought a gear sale would be a really good idea.”

Gwinn said the Outdoor and Bike Shop, on the east side of John-son Gym, will contribute more than 100 items to an auction dur-ing the sale. The auction is from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday.

“We’re trying to recycle our old gear so we can buy new stuff for faculty and staff,” he said. “All the proceeds go to buying new gear.”

Last year there were partici-pants who brought in multiple pieces of outdoor gear, Gwinn said.

“Some guy brought in like 15 bikes last year,” Gwinn said. “It wasn’t very many people, but those that did brought in a large volume of stuff.”

Ortiz said there is a $5 registra-tion fee to sell a piece of gear worth less than $50.

“If the item is valued at $50 and over, there is a $10 registration fee,” he said. “Any sales resulting in $100 or more will be charged a 10 percent sales fee.”

Ortiz said if the item sells for under $100 the owner gets the

whole sale amount back.The registration dates for gear are

Wednesday and Thursday from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. The sale is on Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

He said the student workers at the shop helped organize the sale and give students a good resource for rent-ing inexpensive gear.

“We’re easily 30 percent or 40 per-cent cheaper than other rental stores,” he said. “With the seasons changing … we’re becoming a lot more thor-ough with what we’re doing and a lot of that can be attributed to the student staff. They’re just stellar, and they have a great appreciation for the outdoors.”

At the end of the sale the staff will call or e-mail the previous owners to pick up their cash or unsold gear.

Ortiz said people typically bring in backpacks, tents and ski equipment but they should not bring in knives or guns.

“And also (don’t bring in) things

that have a shelf life, like ropes and stuff. We don’t want those because we can’t be responsible for any gear that’s sold,” he said. “So we have to make sure the stuff we get is at least usable. We’ll have our staff look over them and give them their honest opinion. We try to be as forthright as we can in the parameters of what we’re doing.”

Gearing upfor outdoor,bike shop’sannual sale

Zach Gould/ Daily LoboCharles Gwinn, a student employee at the UNM Outdoor and Bike Shop, works on a repair Monday. The shop is hosting a Gear In Gear Out sale on Friday for students to sell used gear.

they haven’t even changed the space for maybe 40, 50 years. You can take a piece off of the wall and you can see white and then there’s smoke stain everywhere else. It feels like I’m walking into anoth-er time. What’s fascinating is that

it stayed with them for all that time and all those things are just still with them, and they pass, and all those objects get filtered back into the world. That’s one thing I am excited about as a visual art-ist is you know when I am gone, all

these pieces are all over the world, doing the same thing.

Are you a noteworthy art-ist, or do you know any? If so, send your suggestions to [email protected]
