The UNM men's soccer team lost in the second round of the NCAA Tournament on Wednesday, falling to California 3-1 in Berkeley, Calif. Head coach Jeremy Fishbein said the team started the game with a mistake, and everything crumbled from ther

Republicans can rebuild party over next two years

Editor, It has now been more than a week since the midterm elections, and many Democrats are jumping for joy, as Republicans are in their own puddle of tears. But I would like to tell Republicans not to cry - many major polls suggest this year's election was not a vote for Democrats, but a vote against the war, a vote against Mark Foley and a vote against Republicans not acting like Republicans.

Summer discount plan fizzles

UNM lost about $672,000 because of a tuition discount meant to boost summer enrollment, said Curtis Porter, associate vice president of budget, planning and analysis. The discount, introduced last summer, made summer tuition 15 percent cheaper than normal tuition.

Lobos overwhelm Colorado

Lobo guard J.R. Giddens flexed his muscles after a powerful second-half dunk and so did the UNM men's basketball team in a blowout win over Colorado on Tuesday. The Lobos improved to 3-0, with a 106-65 victory over the Buffaloes. UNM head coach Ritchie McKay said the Lobos are playing their way back to national recognition. "It's a good statement for hopefully our return back to being one of the regional powers, if not being nationally ranked one day," he said.

ASUNM candidates set sights on change

Every semester, ASUNM candidates outline their goals for the student government. They write letters to the Daily Lobo, set up tables outside the SUB and talk about their goals at public forums. The PAC slate's goals are to stabilize tuition costs, increase funding for student organizations and get more internships for students.

Progressive slate seeks to give students a voice

Editor, PAC - Progressive Action Coalition - represents a slate of candidates running in the ASUNM elections. PAC is comprised of a diverse group of students who have come together to create progressive change for the University. ASUNM exists to represent the concerns of the people this University was built to serve - the students.

PAC claims not supported by any intimate knowledge

Editor, Over the past couple of weeks, I have seen a number of letters in the Daily Lobo from the PAC slate, which is currently running nine candidates for the ASUNM Senate. These letters all contained what appeared to be intimate knowledge of the inner workings of the ASUNM Senate.

Broadway classic still delivers

The power of extravagance should never be underestimated. "Phantom of the Opera," the longest running show in Broadway history, has come to Popejoy Hall and brought with it lavish scenery, costumes and a splendid assortment of sophisticated clichÇs such as "Curse you" and "So be it."

Rockin' anthropomorphic alien cats still bring anime, vocabulary to eager kids

As a child of the '80s, after-school animation was always hit or miss. This was before the ubiquity of cable and channels such as Cartoon Network, so kids across the nation had very few options. "Tom and Jerry" reruns and similar fare had aired regularly for so many years that I managed to memorize lots of dialogue. Even today, I can still sing the theme song of "Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids," a talent I recently put on display for an inebriated audience at a student ghetto party.

Complicated 'Babel' a directorial failure

"Babel" would have been more interesting if it had come out in 1994. Unfortunately, even then, it still would have had "Pulp Fiction" to go up against, and it would have lost badly. "Babel," like "Pulp Fiction," has a story that is broken up into three parts, and much like that film, it is broken up in time as well as space.


Student Kirbie Seis breaks at the beginning of a game of nine-ball Monday at the game room in the SUB. NMPIRG's student chapter and ASUNM's Community Experience held a nine-ball tournament and donated the proceeds to local homeless shelters.

Students set sights on helping homeless

Student Aleshia McCarter is going to clean out her pantry for the homeless. "I see homeless people all the time around campus," she said. "A lot of people pay attention to things happening outside of where they live, and they need to pay attention to what's going on around them."

In all likelihood, if you played it concurrently with "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" - the original, not the horrid remake - its scenes would magically fall in sync with the music.

Seth Irwin 27 years old What year are you? I consider myself a sophomore in chemistry. UNM considers me a ninth-year senior. There is a bit of an identity issue between what UNM and I consider myself. Where are you from? I don't know. I honestly don't know anymore. I moved here from Santa ...
