Although UNM’s women’s rugby team plays at a Division I level and has a better record than the UNM football team, the program goes un-funded by Athletics, which means team members pay out of pocket to play games.

Njeri Henderson, co-captain of the Lobo rugby team, said without recognition from the NCAA, playing the sport is di� cult.

“We do not get the proper recog-nition or funding, which we deserve and need,” Henderson said.

Co-captain Jade McLaughlin said the team struggles to raise enough money to compete. McLaughlin said away games, which often require buses and hotels, cost around $1,000 and home games cost around $250.

Tim Cass, senior associate director of Athletics, said sports not recognized by the NCAA in the Mountain West Conference are ineligible for funding from Athletics.

“� e league we compete in, the Mountain West Conference, doesn’t have rugby,” he said. “If you were to have rugby as a Division I sport, you wouldn’t have a league to play in. Could you get membership into a di� erent league? Maybe. But your travel cost would be extremely high.”

New Mexico is one of the least

popular states for rugby. Both Cass and Henderson said the main ob-stacle preventing rugby from be-ing recognized by the NCAA and the Mountain West is lack of pop-ularity.

Career Profile: Biologistby Victoria Carreon

[email protected]

Molecular biologist Suzanne McConaghy studies genes in order to help premature babies develop faster.

McConaghy works in the neo-natal Dream Lab at UNM’s Health Sciences center where she looks at how genes affect development of babies born be-fore full term.

“We’re looking at how particular proteins and genes will change so that, perhaps eventually, we can use these changes to understand why, when a baby is born prematurely, some of the systems develop okay and some don’t develop okay,” McConaghy said. “If we can figure out what genes control development, then we can help premature babies get more healthy more quickly.”

McConaghy’s research shows po-tential to increase the performance of premature babies in benchmark tests.

Erythropoietin, a gene naturally produced in the body, helps aid the development of certain cells in the in-fants’ bodies. McConaghy’s research focuses on “Darby,” the synthetic ver-sion of the gene.

In an ongoing study of McConaghy’s work tracking 108 infants, these growth factors increased development of the grain and other organs and increased the production of red blood cells.

In the study, the babies who are now 18 months old have shown in-creased performance on benchmark development tests. The children will be monitored until they are 4 years old. The findings of this study are not yet published.

McConaghy monitors the ongoing experiments in the Dream Lab neo-natology lab, working with DNA, RNA and polymerase chain reactions to

measure gene expression, and guides the student researchers who work in her lab.

She said that being able to engage students in this research is what she likes most about her work.

“I think that producing a

generation of medical researchers is of the utmost importance, so that progress can be made in the health services,” McConaghy said.

While McConaghy’s career has tak-en place mostly in the lab, she didn’t work consistently throughout her life.

She said she took about 23 years off to focus on her family.

When McConaghy decided to return to the field, she said there were few jobs on available and competition for all of them was extremely high.

McConaghy said she is lucky and feels honored to have worked in the clinic after landing an inter-view five years ago. She said she hopes to continue her research in the hopes of improving the lives of children everywhere.

by Angela K. Brown The Associated Press

FORT WORTH, Texas — For years, hundreds of Texas ranchers have made big money on exotic antelopes, with hunters paying up to $10,000 to bag just one dama gazelle, a rare animal with short horns curving outward.

Starting today, however, the U.S. government will stop allow-ing anyone to hunt the dama ga-zelle or two other exotic antelopes native to Africa, the addax and the scimitar-horned oryx — unless ranchers obtain a permit.

The move to give the animals full protection under the federal Endangered Species Act is being praised by animal-rights groups that abhor such hunts and has upset the ranchers whose efforts have led to a rise in the numbers of those exotic animals. The ranchers say they won’t be able to afford the upkeep for their antelopes — but they also can’t legally kill the en-tire herds or release them.

Texas has the largest population of the animals in the world — far more than even their native Africa. In 1979, Texas had fewer than three dozen scimitar-horned oryx, just two addax and nine dama gazelles, according to the Exotic Wildlife Association. But by 2010, the state had more than 11,000 scimitar-horned oryx, about 5,100 addax and nearly 900 dama gazelles, according to the association

Knowing that the new regula-tions were set to take effect, some ranchers have sold their exotic an-telopes. But prices have dropped by up to 40 percent and will drop an additional 50 percent after Wednesday, said Charly Seale, ex-ecutive director of the Texas-based Exotic Wildlife Association.

The ranchers can apply for fed-eral permits to continue the hunts, but most are refusing because they say it’s government intrusion. Seale said just 10 percent of ranchers have sought the permits and he does not expect more to apply. Others are so irate they’ve threatened to kill the herds or just set them free, but that may not happen because both op-tions are illegal under the federal act, Seale said.

“They are very prolific and had been valuable because a lot of people wanted to hunt them,” Seale said. “We’ve built our herds with our own money, and we in-creased an extinct population, one of the biggest conservation efforts in the world. And now they’re telling us we can’t do it? It’s ridiculous.”

The scimitar-horned oryx, which has horns up to 4 feet long curving toward its back, was declared extinct in the wild in 2000. The three species were listed on the Endangered Species Act, but they were exempt from the no-hunting rule by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Now the rule is being enforced so the animals won’t be killed in “canned hunts,” said Priscilla Feral, president of the Connecticut-based Friends of Animals that successful-ly challenged that exemption.

“The ranchers care about of-fering them in trophy hunts on property from which they cannot escape,” Feral said. “They only live so they can die. To call that conservation is ludicrous.”

Ranchers allowed just 10-15 percent of their herds to be killed each year, said Seale, who has a South Texas ranch with exotic an-imals. The dama gazelle is the rar-est of the three, but hunters still shelled out big bucks for the oth-ers — up to $5,000 for the chance to bag a scimitar-horned oryx and $7,000 for an addax, known for its long, thin, spiral-shaped horns.

Because trophy hunters have known that the hunting restric-tion was approaching, they have flocked to Texas ranches in recent months, thinning the herds even more. But ranchers — even those with other exotic animals that are not affected by the rule — say they’re left with few options. The herds are too expensive to feed without the hunting revenues,

and obtaining a permit means the government can make unan-nounced inspections.

“We’ve applied for permits, but the process is cumbersome,” said Aaron Bulkley, owner of the Texas Hunt Lodge, which has 23 ranches northwest of San Anto-nio. “This rule will have a major impact to our business. There is no fix to this.”

Only a few animal sanctuaries for such animals exist, and “they don’t want 100; they want two or four,” Bulkley said. The Exotic Wildlife Association plans to send about two dozen of the animals to a nature preserve in Senegal.

The rule will not only hurt the $1.3 billion exotic animal industry in Texas but will cause the scimi-tar-horned oryx population to be reduced to 1,000 in a decade, Seale said.

However, the animals becom-ing extinct in Texas is better than what’s been going on, Feral said.

“Now they’re saying they will shoot them now rather than later,” she said. “(Having the three spe-cies in Texas) is not an advantage to anyone other than those in the hunting business.”

Editor,

I read Monday’s interview of Lobo cartoon-ist Juan Tabone, and it’s apparent that Tabone is most likely suffering from delusions of gran-deur. It seems to me that Tabone fancies him-self a sort of crusader for the downtrodden and the oppressed while the evil, “Bible-thumping right-wing bullies” are trying to prevent him and his ilk from informing the masses about the “real” problems in American society.

But in reality, Tabone grossly overestimates the importance of his comic. At a university like UNM, it’s not hard to receive accolades for anything supporting the left side of the politi-cal “fence”; his comics serve only to reinforce the generic leftist idealism that a large portion of UNM students already so blindly follow.

Ultimately, his comics serve only to stroke those sharing Tabone’s point of view, and real-ly, what does that serve? That’s not to say they aren’t entitled to their opinions, but rather that they take up arms and fight for issues that they don’t really know much about, if at all.

And if they do know anything about the is-sue, it’s just the same sort of propaganda that Tabone spews forth on a day-to-day basis, which is similarly grounded in pseudo-facts and half-truths. Furthermore, I find that more often than not, Tabone’s comics are either nonsensical or exhibit enormous holes in his reality.

I will, however, commend him for his artis-tic ability (and honestly, his comics about the university are amusing). At the end of the day, Tabone’s daily political “crusade” in the Lobo only angers those of differing opinions. Let’s be honest; in politics, it’s rare that somebody stops and considers the opposition’s opinions, but rather they will stop and get angry.

It seems to me that cooperation is essential in helping this country go forth in the right di-rection; so what is the point of pissing off the people whose help you need? It would serve Tabone well to brush up on the facts and truly understand the issues before he hits the draw-ing board.

Furthermore, Tabone inspires little to no controversy outside the opinions page of the Lobo. There are no protesters outside Mar-ron Hall. There are only a handful of people willing to take the time and write the Lobo to voice their disdain.

His cartoon “chastising” APD for shooting mentally unstable people is the exception; not for its insightful wisdom on police shootings, but because it was so blatantly slanderous and demeaning. I believe that it would do him well to step out of the drawing room and realize the effects of his comics on society as a whole.

He is but one human among billions who, in reality, has no better grasp on the issues the country faces as any other human being. If political cartoons like Tabone’s are indeed a dying concept, then you will not see me weeping.

Austin MunnUNM student

by Devon Stevens Daily Lobo columnist

A few days ago, I was using one of the College of Education’s bathrooms. Besides noticing that the male side is one of the worst designed bathrooms at UNM, I noticed that somebody had put a small tab in every single urinal that read something like, “Your teeth could be this color, the benefits of smoking,” all stark white.

I doubt they’ll stay that way, but what I find odd is that these tabs are only in the College of Education’s bathrooms. No other bath-room on campus seems to have them. I sup-pose this is because people who are going to be working with children get targeted be-cause who really wants children to see their role models smoking?

Each bathroom in each building of the Uni-versity has a different feel and character. The Humanities bathrooms are studded with graf-fiti — the most strange, obtuse quotes from books I’ve never read — while the graffiti in Dane Smith is small and unobtrusive.

In one of the Theater and Performing Arts stalls, the graffiti resembles the most hateful Internet forum.

None of it is worth quoting, but it is interest-ing how in this one, rundown, out of the way

bathroom, words march to war in various siz-es, some very large and emphatic and others small and dense, perhaps attempting to over-whelm their enemy with the sheer number of miniature f-bombs they possess.

In the art building’s bathroom, as of the time of this writing, a simplified and crude 6-foot penis dominates the space above the urinals. A third grader could have drawn it, but maybe would hesitate to have made it so big. This is what is called “low” art, I believe.

Zimmerman Library’s bathrooms are small and private. There is very little graf-fiti in the upper floors, as if vandals have trouble climbing stairs or are perhaps afraid of books. Popejoy’s public restrooms are spotlessly clean. A notice along the lines of “report vandalism by calling” appears ev-ery few feet. These might be the fanciest

restrooms on campus. Polished surfaces, speakers to pipe in performances; Popejoy has it all.

George Pearl Hall has unearthly bath-rooms, decorated with primary colors. All sharp angles, it looks ultra modern, proving one can urinate in a Cubist universe. How-ever, Johnson Gym’s bathrooms look like they were dragged screaming from 70s. The urinals are strange, outdated shapes; there are glazed windows high up; pipes are exposed; the vents are choked with ropey gray dust; and yet there is almost no graffiti.

The Student Union Building is an adven-ture. You never know what you’ll find when you open those stalls. Maybe a messy toilet, maybe a clean one, maybe one covered in toilet paper because the previous occupant thought his butt was too good for the toilet seat, but not for your hands as you have to pull all the paper off.

No matter where you are on campus, there’s a toilet near you. Due to the collapsed econo-my, I have begun to offer “lavatory tours” for the low fee of $17.76. We will start at Johnson and end at Mesa Vista, stopping by every lava-tory hotspot along the way, though I regret that I will be unable to show you the largest and dirtiest bathrooms connected to the Universi-ty: the Board of Regents’ budget hearings.

Editor,

Unless I am mistaken, doesn’t some-one usually warn us about a week before the “pro-life” people show up with their dis-gusting posters? Isn’t there a group that also chalks the sidewalks in order to make paths to avoid having to see their offensive signs? And isn’t there also usually a Planned Par-enthood table that is allowed to set up next to them in order to at least talk about sex safe and contraceptives?

I’m a little disappointed that there were none of those this year.

In “Tabone’s madness has political method,” published Monday, Daily Lobo columnist Jason Darensberg interviewed controversial Daily Lobo political cartoonist Juan Tabone about his artistic methods and political views. Readers on DailyLobo.com responded:

by “Sam Duro”posted on Monday

“So Juan’s thousand words really do back up his typical drawn picture: he’s crazy in both media forms.”

by “UNM student”posted on Monday

“Hell yeah, Juan! As a former editorial cartoonist for a small weekly in rural

Colorado, I commend you for keeping the spirit of cartooning alive.

As you said, it’s properly the job of cartoonists to be anti-bullies — it’s your duty to use those 20-odd square inches to stand up for those who don’t have that voice. Keep it up.”

by “Klutch”posted on Monday

“Personally, I think Tabone is too good for the Daily Lobo — his work is very good and unfortunately gets missed by a greater audience that might appreciate it more, because nobody really reads the Lobo anyway. He’s wasting his talent here!”

You never know what you’ll find when you open those

stalls. Maybe a messy toilet, maybe a clean one, maybe

one covered in toilet paper...

New football head coach Bob Davie joked that the only thing he is struggling with now that he’s getting back into coaching is sore feet.

Davie was named the head football coach last November after an 10-year absence from coaching. His last head coaching job was at Notre Dame from 1997-2001 where he compiled a 35-25 record.

Though he was gone for a while, he said he feels he’s been still involved with the sport, and even though he has been away from coaching, it hasn’t felt like that to him.

“For me I have never felt like I have gotten out of it to be quite hon-est,” Davie said. “It feels like I have been doing it all along.”

In between his coaching jobs, Davie analyzed football for ESPN.

Davie said he enjoyed getting back into the coaching aspect of the sport.

“This is more fun and more rewarding than anything I have done in the last 10 years and the last 10 years have been a great 10 years,” he said.

Davie also coordinated the defense at Texas A&M from 1989-1993. His defense earned the nickname “The Wrecking Crew.”

Davie replaced former head coach Mike Locksley who went 2-26 in his two and half years at UNM. The Lobos went 1-11 for three straight seasons, but Davie said he hopes to change that.

“I just like being around the players and the coaches and try-ing to give guys a plan and trying to get them to buy into that plan and hopefully at some point see some rewards,” he said. “I just enjoy doing this from step A to step Z.”

Senior tight end Lucas Reed played under Locksley and interim head coach George Barlow during his time at UNM, and he said he al-ready can tell Davie is changing the program for the better.

“It’s been great,” Reed said. “Everything is positive and you can just feel the progress being made every day. Everything coach Davie says has meaning. Lots of positive reinforcement and everything is so instructed around positive discipline and discipline in general.”

Davie implements positive changes

Senior quarterback B.R. Holbrook is entering his fifth year at UNM. He received coaching from Locksley, Barlow and Rocky Long during his time at UNM.

Holbrook said Davie brings

intensity into practices, and thanks to difficult training, the team will perform better.

Holbrook said Davie could bring victories back to UNM football.

“I think his vision for the program and for the future is pretty exciting for me and, hopefully as an alumni, I can come back someday and see this as a winning program,” he said.

Adria Malcolm / Daily LoboUNM football head coach Bob Davie looks on as his team runs a drill at practice Friday afternoon. The University hired Davie to jumpstart the football program, which has won just three games in the past three seasons.

With four road losses in Austin, Texas during the weekend, the softball team dropped out of the top 25 for the second time this season, according to national polls released Tuesday.

But head coach Erica Beach said her team — which was ranked No. 25 in last week’s USA Today/National Fastpitch Coaches Association poll — doesn’t need some number next to its name to prove that it’s good.

“We’re not going to worry about numbers or anything like that,” Beach said. “We played hard this weekend, and I think we proved that we can play with anyone in the country. At the end of the season, it’s the best teams who continue playing. If you win ball games, you’ll be in the (Women’s College) World Series. Rankings don’t matter.”

The Lobos dropped a 2-1 decision in extra innings to No. 6 University of Texas on Friday. UNM then lost 7-3 and 5-0 to the Longhorns on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.

The Lobos also fell 2-1 to a hard-hitting Tulsa team on Saturday, racking up four losses on the weekend and sinking their record to 22-10 for the season.

Beach said her team welcomed the challenge, and if she wanted to pad her team’s record with give-me

wins, she could have scheduled oth-er teams to face off against.

“The competition was definitely what we wanted,” junior third baseman Stefanie Carramusa said. “We were ready to play, and we came out stronger than anyone thought that we would. … We definitely belonged on the field with (Texas).”

The Lobos’ offense showed why it’s ranked No. 1 nationally in home runs per game and No. 3 in slugging percentage, slamming four long balls over the weekend against arguably one of the best pitching staffs in college softball. Carramusa had two of them, bring-ing her season total up to 14.

Beach said UNM’s bats have been consistent all season long.

“Our offense is a major point of pride for our team,” Beach said. “It’s been really fun to watch. To see so many people in our lineup be successful has been great. It’s nice to know that any part of the lineup can produce at any given time.”

But Beach said it was UNM’s pitching that really turned some heads in Austin.

Freshman pitcher Carrie Sheehan threw five innings of scoreless balls against the Longhorns on Friday. Junior pitcher Kari Gutierrez — who made her return from elbow surgery — pitched four shutout innings in Sunday’s loss.

“Our pitching definitely turned it up a notch this weekend,” Beach said. “Now that our pitching and

defense are both coming along, it’s nice that we are going to be fir-ing on all cylinders when we get to conference play.”

But before Mountain West action begins in two weeks, the Lobos travel to California State-Northridge in a make-up game that was originally scheduled for March 15.

“The weather in California was pretty nasty a couple of weekends ago, and we knew we were going to be rained out,” Beach said. “In order to save ourselves some wasted travel, we decided to move the games to this weekend.”

Beach said she’s confident in her team’s chances this weekend — weather permitting, of course.

“This will be a good match-up for us,” Beach said. “We have the talent to beat (Cal State-Northride) as long as we show up and play our game. If we play to our level, we should come away with two wins.”
