“I personally haven’t kept up with it as much as I should, but I have a friend from Egypt, and she is taking it pretty hard. Her family is having difficulties communicating with family and friends. It should be interesting how it all turns out.”

“It is kind of a platform for demonstration, and I feel like if they succeed it would be one more step toward liberation for the Egyptian people and possibly the entire Arab world. Besides, it can be a lesson for young people in the United States.”

“I think it is cool that the people are trying to get rid of a leader who has been in power too long and has maybe gotten a little bit corrupt.”

“I find it quite interesting, in particular the U.S. reaction to it, because the U.S. has supported Egypt and President Hosni Mubarak for years. And now, they are trying to distance themselves from him. But at the same time it seems like they want to keep him in office. It would be a mess for U.S. foreign policy if Mubarak’s opposition, The Islamic Brotherhood, gained power.”

Hess said this is not the first e-mail scam to capitalize on UNM’s database.

“This is the latest one,” he said. “From time to time, we’ll get things claiming to be from UNM e-mail, and what they do is capitalize on people’s fear. It’s kind of ironic be-cause they say that there is some sort of a security breach so people have to change their passwords.”

This process is known as “phish-ing” and is related to identity theft, Hess said.

He said the webpages are set up to look exactly like other login pag-es, so users type in their usernames and passwords, and then the server asks users to change it. The server then steals the users’ information.

“They’re trying to steal people’s information so that they can use that account for bad things,” he said.

In the online world, “phishing” is defined as the act of sending an e-mail to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft, according to Webopedia.com.

“Usually what they do is they trick someone, somewhere into do-ing this, and then they can get to all the people in that address book,” Hess said.

Information Technologies de-partment is researching the issue, but has not found specific phishing

e-mails, IT spokeswoman Vanessa Baca said. IT has not received spam reports from WebCT, and Baca said it is possible that the hoax e-mail was set up to look just like a UNM WebCT account page.

“About 95 percent of messages that come through UNM’s e-mail system and are filtered by IT are spam,” she said. “Like any other university or business entity, UNM unfortunately has its share of spam, phishing and malware scams sent by unscrupulous individuals out-side the University.”

Hess said the scam’s sender must have figured out how to make it through IT’s spam filters.

“Anyone can send an e-mail, and they managed to make it through the spam filters,” he said. “The spam filters are good, and they’ve been improving them, but they’re not quite perfect.”

He advises typing links into your browser instead of clicking directly to them and calling IT with security questions or concerns.

Hess and Baca urge students not to open any attachments or follow links embedded into e-mail mes-sages, because, generally, UNM will not send attachments or links.

“Normally, UNM won’t ask you to go to a different website to do those things,” Hess said. “If (the scammers) do give you a link, it’s usually not the link you think it is. It’s a link that’s disguised.”

KAPOETA, Sudan — The pow-er lines, electricity poles and street lamps that now dot the red dirt roads of the Southern Sudanese town of Kapoeta seem out of place next to the rusting tanks and shot-up buildings.

The electrification project, which was funded by U.S. government aid, is one sign that the U.S. is intent on helping bring development and sta-bility to what will soon be Africa’s newest country.

The final results from Southern Sudan’s January independence ref-erendum were announced Monday, with nearly 99 percent of ballots cast for independence. Southern Sudan is slated to become a new country in July, and it will need all the help it can get.

Southern Sudan President Salva Kiir, in his first comments since the results were announced, said Tues-day that the vote was the “crowning moment of all the sacrifices made during our long struggle.”

More than 2 million people died during the nearly two-decade war that ended in 2005.

“It is a glorious day for Africa and the world,” Kiir said. “You ex-ercised your inalienable right to self-determination freely, fairly and peacefully.”

Decades of civil war between the mainly Christian-animist south and the mainly Muslim north mean most of Southern Sudan has no electrici-ty, roads or other infrastructure, de-spite the south’s oil riches.

In the barren scrubland of East-ern Equatoria state, where the U.S. has just funded the electrification project in Kapoeta, semi-nomad-ic herders from the Toposa tribe carry spears and automatic rifles for protection and wear leopard skins and feather headdresses for celebrations.

The U.S. Agency for International Development spent $1.1 billion in Sudan and eastern Chad in the 2009 fiscal year. More USAID workers are being sent to Southern Sudan, where most people live on less than $1 day and only 15 percent of the population can read. Quality health

care is almost nonexistent.“The development needs of

Southern Sudan are absolutely enormous,” Barrie Walkley, the top U.S. diplomat in Southern Sudan, said during last Friday’s opening of the electricity project.

U.S. and southern government officials hope electricity will boost the area’s economy, improve secu-rity and quality of life and attract in-vestors to the area’s gold and copper reserves. Herders in this Wild West-like hinterland struggle to keep their cattle alive during the months of near-drought in one of the most arid and bleak expanses in Southern Sudan.

The Kapoeta project is just one of many initiatives USAID has launched in the region. One of its top projects is the funding of a $200 million highway from Uganda to Juba, the southern capital.

Lorna Merekaje, an activist in Juba who led a referendum moni-toring group of last month’s referen-dum, said she believes U.S. aid proj-ects are generally positive.

“It is a great support to Southern Sudan but it needs to be managed well because there is a common theme that if people are not careful then we end up only implementing the donor agenda and not the agen-da of the people,” Merekaje said.

Other USAID programs are de-signed to improve the skills of southern leaders in areas like bud-geting or managing social welfare programs. Many of the south’s lead-ers are former rebels whose decades

of fighting means them are more accustomed to planning ambushes than accounting.

The influx of aid money — cou-pled with Southern Sudan’s oil rev-enues — means “there’s a threat and an opportunity at the same time,” said James Shikwati, an economist from neighboring Kenya. Funding infrastructure helps improve re-gional links and provides people with the economic independence to start participating in political life, he said.

“Southern Sudan is likely to have a problem similar to what many countries have experienced: the emergence of an elite class that serves the interests of the donor countries and not the needs of the people. There may also be donors who want to ensure access to the re-gion’s natural resources,” he said.

Other donors funding projects in Southern Sudan include the E.U. and China — which also has a hand in the region’s oil fields — although the U.S. has spent more money in Sudan over the past decade than any other donor. The Kapoeta proj-ect took three years and $4 million to complete.

“We are literally and figurative-ly bringing light to Kapoeta,” Walk-ley said as hundreds of residents danced and drummed last week.

USAID funded the project in Ka-poeta because it’s a strategic trade center near the border with Kenya. The region’s governor, Louis Lo-bong, praised the U.S. for the help.

“We love the American people for standing with us during our libera-tion war,” said Lobong. He said the project “demonstrates the solidarity and commitment of the American government and its people to sup-port the Sudanese in the develop-ment of the new state to be born.”

Gov. Susana Martinez wants New Mexi-co to look more like Arizona.

A new executive order proposed by Martinez mirrors Arizona’s infamous SB 1070, which would have required police to check the immigration status of every-one “suspected” of being in the country illegally.

Martinez’ executive order requires im-migration-status checks for everyone ar-rested in New Mexico.

The racial implications of both these bills are obvious. We can all agree that no one is really worried about Irish illegal im-migrants anymore.

Proponents of the Martinez order would say that this is not an issue because every-one arrested would be subject to an immi-gration-status check, regardless of race.

The problem with this argument is that it implicitly encourages police to arrest people committing minor crimes so that they can then check their immigration status.

It’s ironic that Martinez drew so much support from the Hispanic community and then, upon being elected, immedi-ately issued a race-baiting executive order designed to kick people out of this coun-try who may have done nothing more than rack up a simple speeding ticket.

The fact is, the majority of undocu-mented people in this country simply want to work.

Official estimates put the number of undocumented immigrants in this country at 11 million. This is an incredible num-ber, equal to more than one out of every 30 people in the country. That would be one kid in every class you take.

People don’t come to this country from Mexico and Central America because they’re lazy.

They don’t come because they’re ter-rorists or drug dealers.

Let’s consider, first, the idea that they’re lazy. A typical person crossing the border illegally from

Northern Mexico walks through the desert for three to five days. People do this without bringing water with them. People do this without shoes on.

The journey from Central America, the

origin point of more than half of illegal immigrants from Latin America, is even more arduous.

One thing that’s seldom talked about in our media is the journey immigrants must make across Mexico before they even make it to the southern border of the U.S.

Mexico’s immigration policies mirror our own, meaning many people are illegal immigrants in Mexico before they become illegal immigrants in the U.S. Traveling il-legally from the southern to the northern border of Mexico usually involves riding on top of a train.

Immigrants run behind a moving train, grab a ladder on the side of it, then pull themselves up on top of the moving train. They ride on top of it for several days.

The trains are often attacked by gangs, who take everything from the people rid-ing on top. If they find a written phone number anywhere on the person, they’ll kidnap them and call the number until they reach someone who can pay to have them released. If they can’t reach anyone, they’ll simply kill them.

So why do this? For work. No other rea-son. Let’s not pretend that anyone crosses a whole country on top of a train, risking rape, assault, murder, robbery and kid-napping and then walks five days through a desert because they’re lazy.

This terrorist/drug dealer argument is too ridiculous to even dignify. So I’ll keep this brief.

Point one: Every single one of the 9/11 terrorists were in this country legally. The guy who tried to bomb Times Square last year was a Pakistani-born U.S. citizen. Timothy McVeigh, Ted Kaczynski and that guy who flew a plane into an IRS building were all white men born in the U.S.

Immigration law has nothing to do with terrorism.

And drug violence? It can be disproved with one simple fact: Last year, there were more than 3,000 murders in Juárez. In El Paso, right across the river from Juárez, there were three, all related to domestic disputes.

This, in itself, conclusively disproves the idea of “crossover violence.”

Now, let’s consider for a moment the fact that a lot of people here illegally were brought here by their parents when they were infants. A lot of people grew up in

this country, speak English as well or bet-ter than Spanish, and would be immedi-ately pegged as gringos in Mexico because of their American haircuts, mannerisms and style of dress.

These people are as American as you and me. There’s no question of that. And yet, a lot of them have been living here il-legally their whole lives.

This is because getting your citizenship papers in order, if you’re living in this situ-ation, is no easy task. It opens you up to the possibility of being deported (because you have to admit that you’re not here le-gally) and it’s often expensive. So a lot of people never do it.

Perhaps worse than Martinez’ execu-tive order is the movement to deny people birthright citizenship. Right-wing groups in Arizona, Texas, New Mexico and many other states want to modify the U.S. Con-stitution so that being born here would not automatically make you a U.S. citizen.

This is a grave human rights issue. Peo-ple born to illegal-immigrant parents in countries without birthright-citizenship laws are generally illegal everywhere.

If you’re born in the U.S., Mexico is not going to consider you a citizen of Mexico. So, if the U.S. government doesn’t consid-er you a citizen either, you’re a citizen of nowhere. Meaning that no matter where you are, for the rest of your life, you’re considered illegal. You will never work le-gally anywhere. You will never have a le-gal I.D. In the eyes of the government of whatever country you happen to be in. You won’t exist.

It’s important to consider that this is through no fault of your own, since a per-son obviously cannot choose where they’re born.

Let’s stop pretending this is about na-tional security. These anti-immigrant movements, these anti-immigrant bills and executive orders, boil down to xeno-phobia. Plain and simple.

It’s time to move beyond these racist ideas and accept that people are going to keep moving to this country as long as we continue offering them jobs.

After all, if the immigration laws were the same 150 years ago as they are today, my family would have been illegals in this country, too. And how many of us can hon-estly deny that?

RAMALLAH, West Bank — If an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal seemed remote before, it looks downright unattainable after a stormy week of leaks of confidential Mideast protocols by Al-Jazeera TV.

The disclosures hurt the credibility of Pales-tinian President Mahmoud Abbas among his people, weakening him as a leader. They deep-ened the chasm between him and Hamas, dis-tancing already faint hopes of restoring Palestin-ian unity as the Islamic militants burned him in effigy and branded him a traitor.

The papers also affirmed that there seems virtually no chance of a deal between Abbas and hardline Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netan-yahu without more forceful U.S. intervention.

If Abbas and Netanyahu’s more pragmatic predecessor, Ehud Olmert, couldn’t close the gaps — even if they came close on some issues, as the transcripts show — it’s unlikely the cur-rent leaders will be able to. The Obama admin-istration says it hasn’t given up, but hasn’t sig-naled whether it’s ready to put its own ideas on the table.

On substance, the documents haven’t of-fered many surprises.

The Palestinians want a state in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem, captured by Is-rael in 1967, but are ready to adjust the border in a land swap to let Israel to keep some of the Jew-ish settlements it has built on occupied land.

In 2008, Abbas and Olmert got down to de-tails, with Israel asking to annex 6.5 percent of the West Bank and the Palestinians offering to trade 1.9 percent. As part of the swap, Abbas was ready to let Israel keep all but one of the Jewish enclaves built in east Jerusalem after 1967, now home to 200,000 Israelis.

While Abbas had not said publicly that he of-fered to give up large tracts of east Jerusalem, it couldn’t have come as a shock to Palestinians. Such a tradeoff was already proposed a decade ago by then-U.S. President Bill Clinton, as part of parameters still widely seen today as the founda-tion of any deal.

Perhaps most damaging for Abbas were his private comments on the fate of several million Palestinan refugees and their descendants. Of-ficially, the Palestinian position is that refugees should be able to choose whether they want to return to lost property in Israel, move to a future Palestinian state, stay in their host countries or settle elsewhere.

Israel has said it would at best accept a nom-inal number of returnees, arguing that a mass resettlement to Israel would destroy the state’s Jewish character.

The leaks quoted Abbas as telling Palestinian negotiators in a 2009 meeting that it is “illogical to ask Israel to take 5 million or indeed 1 million.”

A New Mexico lawmak-er on Thursday called out former astronaut Harrison Schmitt over his refusal of a background check as part of his confirmation as secretary of the state’s Energy, Miner-als and Natural Resources.

Sen. Linda Lopez, an Al-buquerque Democrat who leads the Senate panel re-sponsible for confirming cabinet secretaries and oth-er high-level appointed offi-cials, said she has no choice but to oppose Schmitt’s con-firmation given his refusal of the background check.

“The review process is in place to protect the public and to provide the citizens of our state with an increased sense of confidence in their government. As such, there can be no exceptions to the background review process,” Lopez said in a statement.

A confirmation hear-ing for Schmitt has yet to be scheduled, but Lopez said the Senate Rules Committee will discuss Schmitt’s refusal to adhere to the confirmation process during its meeting on Monday.

A spokeswoman for the Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department said Schmitt was not immediately

available for comment.The New Mexico Senate

is required by the state con-stitution to confirm top state government officials and part of that process includes a background check by the Rules Committee, which uses the attorney general’s office and an investigator to con-duct the review.

The background check in-cludes a search for any prior criminal convictions as well as civil court actions, a re-view of disclosure statements related to potential conflicts of interest and ownership in business entities and verifi-cation of financial circum-stances or improprieties such as bankruptcies or tax liens.

Gov. Susana Martinez said her administration had done its own background check on Schmitt and would not have appointed him otherwise.

“It is certainly part of our requirement in order to se-lect somebody and that is something that we felt was important,” Martinez said, adding that the Legislature has always been gracious in hearing out nominees.

She also noted that it was rare for the Senate to reject a governor’s nominee.

Former astronaut and New Mexico energy secretary-designate Harrison “Jack” Schmitt listens to testimony before the Senate Finance Committee at the State Capitol in Santa Fe on Thursday.

Silver City and has a doctorate in geology from Harvard, was one of the last men to walk on the moon as part of the Apollo 17 mission in 1972. He served one term in the U.S. Senate in the late 1970s and has been working as an aerospace consultant.

Martinez’s nomina-

tion of Schmitt to lead the state agency re-sponsible for energy development has gar-nered much attention given Schmitt’s com-ments in recent years regarding global warm-ing. He disagrees with scientists who contend humans are causing global warming.

Hall of Famer Jerry Sloan stepped down Thursday after 23 seasons and 1,127 wins as head coach of the Utah Jazz.

Longtime assistant Phil Johnson, who also was in his 23rd season with the Jazz, resigned as well.

Sloan said during a news confer-ence that stepping down was his de-cision and that the team had tried to talk him out of it. But he said it’s time to move on.

Jazz assistant Tyrone Corbin will be the next coach.

The moves come on the heels of an emotional 91-86 loss Wednesday night to the Chicago Bulls, Utah’s 10th in the last 14 games.

Sloan, the longest-tenured coach in the four major professional sports, hinted that something was in the works after delaying his postgame press conference Wednesday night for more than 30 minutes because of what he said was a meeting with Jazz general manager Kevin O’Connor.

Sloan said he made his decision to leave early Thursday.

Sloan just recently signed a one-year contract extension to carry him through the 2011-12 season, but he also indicated that he would not make anything official until after the current season.

The team started 15-5 but fell to 31-23 after the loss to Chicago, the only other team Sloan has coached (he was 94-121 in nearly three seasons with the Bulls). The Chicago loss was the third straight at home, where the Jazz are only 17-11 this season.

Sloan was asked after Wednesday’s game if there was need for a shake-

up.“I don’t think there’s any great

need for panic,” he said. “Kevin is al-ways evaluating what we can do or what someone wants to do with an-other team and that’s part of the busi-ness. Every day that’s part of his job.”

Though Sloan has been with the Jazz since 1983, first as a scout, he knows how tenuous professional sports can be.

Even before Wednesday’s game he made that clear.

He has made a habit of conducting his pre-game news conferences next to a large plastic garbage receptacle in the concourse at EnergySolutions Are-na rather than from behind a podium.

“You never know when you might be in it,” he quipped Wednesday. “It’s why I stand here. You take what you

get.”Sloan began working for the Jazz

as a scout in 1983, became assistant to coach Frank Layden on Nov. 19, 1984, and was named the sixth coach in franchise history on Dec. 9, 1988, when Layden resigned.

He is the only coach in NBA histo-ry to win 1,000 games with one team, a feat he accomplished Nov. 7 against Oklahoma City. Sloan’s other wins came with the Chicago Bulls from 1979 to 1982.

While he has headed the Jazz, there have been 245 coaching chang-es around the league - 13 alone by the Los Angeles Clippers, and five current NBA teams (Charlotte, Memphis, To-ronto, Orlando and Minnesota) did not even exist when Sloan took the helm in Utah.

The UNM women’s tennis team doesn’t want to relive its last trip to New Mexico State.

For the third time in school his-tory, the Lobos dropped a 6-1 de-cision to the Aggies last year in Las Cruces.

“To say that we are eager for this matchup is an understate-ment,” head coach Roy Cañada said. “We’ve had this date circled on our calendars since last year’s loss.”

Senior Anya Villanueva scored UNM’s only point last year with a win against NMSU’s Sophia Marks at the No.1 position. Marks retired citing a strained abdomen muscle after dropping the first set 6-1.

“Losing to New Mexico State is not something we want to experi-ence again,” Villanueva said. “The entire team knows how much us se-niors want to beat NMSU and prove that last year is behind us.”

Cañada said that beating NMSU will be no easy task for his young team. The Lobos boast two fresh-men, four sophomores and just two seniors on their inexperienced

squad.“We know that we have a young

team,” he said. “But we are playing with a lot of heart right now. We are off to a 4-2 start, and especially after last season, that’s great to get some wins under our belts.”

UNM also has two secret weap-ons this year making their debuts in a Rio Grande Rivalry match-up: freshmen Michaela Bezdickova and Nikolina Grbac, who play No. 1 and No. 2 singles for the Lobos this season.

“We were fortunate to recruit re-ally well in the offseason,” Cañada said. “We knew we wanted to bring in players who would make an im-mediate impact on the team.”

Bezdickova, a native of the Czech Republic, was a semifinalist as the ITA Regional Tournament in Octo-ber, and Grbac, from Croatia, has dropped just one match so far this spring at the No. 2 singles spot.

“The freshmen bring in a ton of experience,” Villanueva said. “They are both used to winning, and they bring such a huge attitude adjust-ment to the overall morale of the team.”

UNM is also markedly improved

in doubles play, having dropped just two doubles points in six matches this season.

“We are all just really gelling with our doubles partners,” senior Ash-ley Bonner said. “Last year we had to play with several different people, and we never really solidified who was going to play with who. So, it’s nice to have a set partner and being able to adjust to their game.”

The Lobos and Aggies match-up begins at 5 p.m. at the Lin-da Estes Tennis Complex. Villanueva said she hopes students will show up and support UNM.

“It’s such an advantage to be able to play at home,” she said. “I’m hop-ing that a lot of people come out and watch us. We really do get momen-tum when there is a huge crowd cheering us on.”
