Don Flanagan, after 16 seasons as UNM women’s basketball head coach, resigned Monday after ini-tially deciding to return to the side-lines next season.
� e reason for Flanagan’s sud-den change of heart: Five fresh-men players (Tina Doughty, Erin Boettcher, Morgan Toben, Brianna Taylor and Jasmine Patterson) in-tended to quit the program, the Al-buquerque Journal reported.
Instead, Flanagan, who didn’t return phone calls Monday, decided to leave the program, even though he had a year left on his four-year extension, which he signed in 2007.
Athletics Director Paul Krebs said in a statement that Flanagan had an unprecedented UNM career.
“Don turned this program around and not only made the Lobos contenders, but he impacted the lives of so many young women,” he said.
UNM will hold a news confer-ence today to discuss the position at 1 p.m. at � e Pit.
� e Lobos � nished 13-18 this season, just Flanagan’s second los-ing season at UNM.
Former UNM point guard Amy
Beggin, now a graduate assistant with the South Dakota State wom-en’s basketball team, said she was privileged to have played under Flanagan.
“He is such a remarkable coach and mentor,” she said. “Flanagan is an ambassador for women’s bas-ketball. He is such a great teacher of the game, and he stresses the funda-mentals to his players.”
Flanagan’s 340-168 career record ranks in the top 25 in the country among active coaches — right up there with the big names in women’s college basketball like Tennessee’s Pat Summitt, UConn’s Geno Auri-emma and Rutgers’ Vivian Stringer.
Under Flanagan’s direction, the Lobos notched 14 consecutive win-ning seasons and 13 postseason ap-pearances. He led his team to the Sweet 16 in 2003 — the best post-season result for any UNM basket-

his time at UNM is invaluable.“I appreciate (UNM’s) contribu-
tion and all of the fans’ support,” he said.
In 1995, Flanagan inherited a struggling program that was 14-96 in its previous four seasons. Flana-gan had an immediate impact, and UNM � nished 14-15, the best record for any � rst-year UNM head coach.
� e following season, UNM
improved to 18-10. By the next year, Flanagan coached his team to 26 wins — surpassing the previous record of 19 wins set during the 1978 season. In 1998, the Flanagan-led Lobos were the Western Athletic Conference tournament champions and made their � rst trip to the NCAA tournament.
Flanagan leaves the Lobos with eight NCAA tournament appear-ances, � ve WNIT berths, two con-ference Coach of the Year honors,
13 consecutive seasons with and a top-10 ranking in attendance.
Beggin said she’ll always remem-ber how Flanagan coaxed the best out of his players.
“If you look back at the pro-gram, Coach Flanagan has taken it to the next level,” she said. “Com-peting against and beating some of the country’s top teams, becoming a conference powerhouse — it’s all because of him. You can just go on and on.”

Michael � orning announced Monday that he is dropping out of the ASUNM presidential race, three weeks after resigning from his high-ranking position in the president’s cabinet.
� e former chief-of-sta� declared March 8 he’d run against Attorney General Jaymie Roybal, and he said ASUNM president Laz Cardenas cut his chief-of-sta� duties in half three days later.
“I think I got the sense that it was either going to become a hostile work environment or I wasn’t going to be working there,” � orning said. “… It sort of seemed the writing was on the wall.”
Cardenas said he supported Roy-bal’s candidacy since October. Roy-bal con� rmed she and Cardenas are dating.
� orning was pro� led in Mon-day’s Daily Lobo as the presidential candidate for the New Day slate, but he said he decided not to run because he found the political atmosphere tough to navigate. He also said that after three years of ASUNM involve-ment, he’s tired.
“� e past three weeks have been sort of a di� cult situation to be in,” � orning said. “It’s never an easy de-cision to withdraw from something like this, in a public thing.”
Instead, Tim Mousseau will run for ASUNM president on the New Day slate against Roybal, from the Now slate.
� orning said Cardenas was sur-prised after � orning told him he in-tended to run for president.
“He already intended to back Jay-mie (Roybal). It wasn’t something I held against him,” � orning said. “We sat down, and he reiterated to me that he was surprised, and he told me at that time that most of the responsi-bilities I had — he wanted me to go ahead and not have those any more. I
“I got the sense that it was either going to become a
hostile work environment or I wasn’t going to be working
there.”~Michael Thorning

”When you are president, you put your trust in your
right-hand man ... It’s a sad thing when ...
there was no trust returned back.”
~Laz CardenasASUNM President
was put on what he said was ‘restrict-ed duty.’”
Cardenas said � orning broke his trust because he was one of the last people to know about � orning’s candidacy.
”When you are president, you put your trust in your right-hand man, and your right-hand man is your chief-of-sta� ,” Cardenas said. “� ere are some things I didn’t tell anyone else. It’s a sad thing when you put that trust in that person, and there was no trust returned back.”
� orning was Cardenas’ campaign manager during last year’s ASUNM election.
� orning said Cardenas told him he would no longer have chief-of-sta� duties during public forums, such as the Student Housing Advisory Committee.
When � orning got back from spring break, he said he discovered his access card to the ASUNM o� ces no longer worked. Cardenas said this was a normal procedure following a resignation.
“He lost access when he resigned,” Cardenas said. “If he was retaliated against, he would have been � red. It was Wednesday of spring break when he turned in his resignation letter.”
Roybal said she, � orning and
Mousseau were originally all part of one slate, called Spark. � orning and Mousseau left the slate along with three of Spark’s 10 Senate candidates.
Roybal planned to run for presi-dent, Mousseau was positioned to run for vice president, and � orning was the slate’s campaign manager, she said.
However, � orning denied ever promising support to the Spark slate, and he said he made clear his inten-tions to run for president shortly after the slate formed.
Roybal said Mousseau intended to run for ASUNM president since October.
She said Mousseau asked her to run as vice president in his slate, but
that she told him she already planned to run for president. She said he prob-ably regretted his decision to run un-derneath her.
“I think in the back of Tim’s mind he was always like, ‘I should not be running for vice president. I should be running for president,’” she said.
Roybal said she was shocked to learn Mousseau and � orning planned to separate from the Spark slate. She said � orning was a “plant” presidential candidate, and that Mousseau always intended to run in � orning’s place.
“I think they put Michael there so that Tim could run for president and we wouldn’t be expecting it,” she said.
Mousseau said he disagreed with Roybal’s leadership style.
“I might view the administration a little di� erently than Jaymie might,” he said. “� at was one of the biggest issues for me — that we might not see eye to eye on when to listen to what the administration was saying and when to question what they’re saying.”
Roybal said backstabbing has no place in the undergraduate student government.
“All the deception and all the lies — I’m pretty disgusted about all of it,” she said. “One, who do you trust? And, two, who is telling the truth?”

Jaymie Roybal, Now Slate
Daily Lobo: Tell me about the slate that you helped create and its platforms.
Jaymie Roybal: We wanted the platforms we’ve developed to be straight, have really broad issues — and then we tried to generalize them. � e three main platforms are connect, protect and reform.
DL: Can you elaborate on what you will do within each of those categories?
JR: For connect, we really want to connect general students to ASUNM. I feel like often times there are students that feel ASUNM only represents one group of students. So what we did when we were con-structing the slate is we wanted a diverse group of candidates. We want to connect student groups to ASUNM, like a listserv e-mail, or maybe us getting full Senate meet-ings up on a website.
We also want to connect ASUNM to the State Legislature. We have a
lobby director that works all year round, and last year that was pretty much me. I organized UNM Day, but I feel like that position should be more than one day.
For protect, UNM is going through some severe budget cuts right now. We want to make sure that the quality of education is maintained and even improved. We’re really going to work to make sure our tuition dollars go to the best programs and the best faculty.
For reform, we really want to reform the � nancial processes in ASUNM. I think they are really outdated. I think students should have full access to money without having to jump through so many hoops.
DL: Tell me a bit about yourself, like where did you grow up, etc.?
JR: I grew up in a really small town in northern New Mexico called Española. I went to Po-joaque High School. Aside from the organizations I am involved with, I really love to play volleyball.
I was involved in ASUNM as attor-ney general. I’m involved in Trail-blazers. I sat on the Student Fee Review Board. I also worked at the UNM ticket o� ce, and right now I am working with Marc Saavedra at UNM Government Relations.
DL: How are you going to work with UNM administration to advo-cate for students?
JR: I think a lot of that starts at square one with the students. ASUNM needs a Facebook page. I know it might sound kind of silly, but it’s important to communicate with students. I also want to have open forums so that the students can know what we’re doing. When we have voices from the students, that’s when you really make sure you’re having e� cient meetings with the president, the provost and the Board of Regents.
DL: How will you maintain or improve ASUNM’s relations with GPSA?
JR: Adrian Cortinas, the vice president on the Now slate, wrote

a resolution last semester with Megan McRobert (GPSA Council chair). In that, they were talking about maintaining GA and TA jobs. � ey are so important on this cam-pus, especially to the younger stu-dents. We acknowledged that those jobs need to be protected.
We both have our separate in-terests, and there will be times when we have di� erent stances on an issue. But at the end of the day,
we’re all students, and the Univer-sity should be serving all of us. � e road to improving the relationship has already been paved, but I think it comes with open communica-tion. Maybe that means meeting once a month, or twice a month. And we can � nd out, “What are the issues GPSA is facing, and what are the important issues we are facing?”

RUIDOSO - Residents were re-turning home Monday after of-ficials lifted evacuation orders forced by a wind-driven wildfire that burned five houses, drove people from a racetrack casino, and knocked out power in part of a southern New Mexico resort area.
Barriers into neighborhoods in the Ruidoso Downs area were lift-ed at 3 p.m., fire information offi-cer Jennifer Myslivy said.
Officials confirmed five houses and seven outbuildings were de-stroyed, and two homes and two outbuildings were damaged, she said. Numerous vehicles also were destroyed or damaged.
The fire broke out Sunday in steep, rugged Gavilan Canyon,
and has burned 6,000 acres, or more than 9 square miles. It was 20 percent contained Monday af-ternoon, Myslivy said.
State Forestry Division spokes-man Dan Ware said the fire was still very active.
Part of the battle took to the air Monday as helicopters dropped large buckets of water and air-planes dropped fire-retardant slurry to help secure fire lines, Myslivy said.
Cooler temperatures and light-er winds helped crews on the ground. Winds Sunday were esti-mated at 50 to 60 mph.
“This was definitely a wind-driven fire,” Myslivy said. “Just looking at the fire perimeter, it’s just one straight line.”

When UNM head men’s basket-ball coach Steve Alford says “no,” he means “no.”
At least for now. ESPN.com re-ported late Sunday night that Miami head coach Frank Haith will accept the Missouri job, halting speculation that Alford, the fourth-year coach, is on his way out the door.
The Albuquerque Journal report-ed Saturday the Alford-to-Mizzou rumor, which had the coach as a top candidate to replace former coach Mike Anderson. Three coaches who were at the Final Four told the Jour-nal that Alford had already accept-ed the position, and UNM assistant
Missourijob taken; Alford stays put
coach Craig Neal would replace Al-ford at UNM.
Alford denied being interested in the vacancy and said Missouri hadn’t contacted him or his agent, and his agent hadn’t reached out to the institution. The rumor contin-ued to gain traction, when St. Lou-is television station reported Alford and Minnesota’s Tubby Smith inter-viewed for the job.
ESPN’s report quickly ended the rumors, but that’s not to say Alford won’t leave Loboland in the future.
Alford, lauding his administra-tive support, has in the past hint-ed that he’d continue to coach at the University as long as Presi-dent David Schmidly and Athlet-ics Director Paul Krebs are around. Schmidly’s contract expires June 2012, and Krebs’ appointment ends in two years, unless he’s offered an extension.
If Alford were to leave in the future, he’d owe the University money.
The contract Alford signed in July has a buyout clause that calls for him to give the University $300,000 if he terminates his deal after April 1 but before March 31, 2012. The buy-out drops to $200,000 if Alford leaves after March 31, 2012, but before March 31, 2013, the contract says.

You are in a bad mood all the time. You have no energy, and nothing is fun. You
don’t want to spend time with anybody because all they do is make you mad. You don’t even want to spend time with yourself. You especially don’t want to look in the mirror because you look fat and ugly, with a bloated belly and zits on your face.
All you want to eat is chocolate or potato chips, or something equally piggish, even though your gut isn’t working right.
You have headaches, and your breasts are two sizes bigger, but you can’t enjoy that because they hurt.
You move like a cow under water. You don’t sleep well or concentrate well. You hate your life, and you’re expecting your period any minute now.
If this sounds like you, you probably have PMS. If you are a guy, don’t stop reading. � is might help you understand the women in your life.
PMS stands for premenstrual syndrome. A syndrome is de� ned in the Encarta Dictionary as “a group of signs and symptoms that together are characteristic or indicative of a speci� c disease or other disorder.”
� e second de� nition is “a group of things or events that form a recognizable pattern, espe-cially of something undesirable.” If you have ever had or witnessed PMS, you will agree with that last statement wholeheartedly.
PMS is no fun for anyone. PMS symptoms fall into two categories: phys-
ical and emotional. Physical symptoms might include headaches,
acne, dizziness, fatigue, tender breasts, back pain, � uid retention and bloating, constipation, diar-
rhea, cramps, achy joints, clumsiness and sugar cravings.
Emotional symptoms might include depres-sion, anxiety, irritability, poor concentration, in-somnia, low self-esteem, lack of libido, mood swings and social isolation.
Some party, huh? � e joy of being female.What causes PMS? Nobody knows for sure. Genetics, lifestyle,
hormones, neurotransmitters, stress, diet and psychology have all been implicated. It looks like di� erent factors play di� erent roles in di� er-ent women. � e common denominator is that a woman’s symptoms occur during the week or two before her period and resolve after she starts her period.
If PMS gets severe, especially emotionally, to the point that you have � ve or more emotion-al symptoms that are interfering with your daily functioning, you might have PMDD, or premen-strual dysphoric disorder.
� is is basically really bad PMS, and thankful-ly only a small percentage of women qualify.
If this is you, get professional help.Not every woman gets PMS. But those who
do usually know it, and so do those around them. “A pit bull ain’t no match,” sings Dolly Parton in her terri� c number, “PMS Blues.” Prickly people, those PMS-ers.
� e good news is you can calm the beast — to an extent.
Regular aerobic exercise is great for prevent-ing PMS.
� irty minutes at least three times a week. Ad-equate rest is really important, too. Don’t skimp on sleep. How and what you eat matters as well. Smaller, more frequent meals can reduce that bloated feeling. Avoid salty foods, because they’ll cause water retention, making the bloating worse. Ca� eine can increase breast tenderness, and simple sugars and alcohol can rock and roll your mood.
Try to eat more whole grains, vegetables and fruit.
Since PMS involves hormones, many women manage it by taking birth control pills. � ese pills supply exogenous (from the outside) hormones, which suppress natural endogenous (from the inside) hormones.
A woman’s natural hormones � uctuate throughout her cycle, and oral contraceptives � atten out the � uctuations and calm PMS.
If you don’t want to go as far as hormone ma-nipulation, you might try vitamins and supple-
ments. Calcium and magnesium are major play-ers in PMS. If you don’t get enough calcium in your diet, which most of us don’t, take a supple-ment. Recommended total is 1,200 milligrams a day. � at’s good for cramps and mood swings. A magnesium supplement will likely decrease cramps.
Vitamin B6 has been shown to soften the emotional impact of PMS.
Some herbal supplements are useful, too. Chaste tree eases physical and emotional symp-toms. Evening primrose oil and ginkgo biloba during PMS time can ease the bloating and breast tenderness. Black cohosh helps some with emo-tional symptoms and valerian at bedtime can help you sleep. If depression is a major symptom for you, you could try St. John’s Wort.
Over-the-counter medications that can help are anti-in� ammatory drugs like ibuprofen or naproxen for headaches and cramps, diuretics like pamabrom for bloating, and sleeping pills like diphenhydramine for insomnia.
If these don’t work, ask your health care prac-titioner for something stronger.
Prescription medicines might also include antidepressants, tranquilizers, or sleeping pills.
Last but never least, mind-body measures like psychotherapy, meditation and relaxation techniques are helpful for many kinds of emo-tional and physical discomfort, and PMS quali-� es in spades.
Guys and gal pals, one of the best things you can do for a woman in a premenstrual pickle is to ask her, “What can I do for you?” Of course you might get any answer, from “A backrub would be lovely” to “Get out of my face!”
PMS-ers, you can ask yourself same thing. What would make you feel a little better right
now? See if you can get it, from yourself or those close to you. Be gentle and kind to yourself.
Oh, and even if you don’t like country music, � nd Dolly Parton’s song and crank it up loud. I guarantee you will feel better when you are belt-ing it out along with her: “Got those can’t stop cryin’, dishes � yin’, PMS blues …”

Editor,
In running for GPSA president, I have not once referenced the current GPSA president, and the idea that I am running against her is confusing and inaccurate.
I decided to run for GPSA president because I believe that GPSA needs more input from the student body. I believe that the organization should revolve less around the president and instead should focus on GPSA being an organization equally dependent on the president and the GPSA Council.
I spent the last year as a GPSA council representative and the last six months with members of a committee examining the GPSA constitution.
I have spent more than 100 hours of unpaid time working with this committee. I am vested in GPSA, and I believe more can be done to make it a more representative organization.
While my reasons for running for GPSA president began only after becoming involved in the GPSA Council, my passion for being involved with the University as a student leader has an extended history.
� e attempt to discredit a student because of their past involvement as a student leader is unwarranted.
� e GPSA president’s article � ursday focused on important issues that our University faces. While many may have had a di� cult time in drawing the connections between a series of statistics, the main point that resonated seemed to be that I do not have the same academic priorities. � is is simply not true.
Our University should focus more on academics.
More should be done to retain faculty and recruit leaders in their respective � elds. GA/TA positions are vital and should not be reduced. Administrative spending should be more transparent and evaluated to ensure that tuition is being spent in the areas that matter most. I agree with these points.
My approach to these issues focuses on the idea that GPSA needs to be a more uni� ed voice. As a council representative, I understand the importance of an organization that includes department and campus representatives.
GPSA must refocus on the organization and not primarily on the executive.
Like the GPSA president, I appreciate e� orts to hold those who collect our money accountable. We must start in GPSA before we can criticize larger organizations’ accountability. I think it would be hypocritical to advocate for the University administration to tighten its belt if GPSA doesn’t do the same.
My concern is that GPSA and its structure are not conducive to an organization that is supposedly representing more than 6,000 students.
If involving a representative body o� ends the current president of an executive-focused organization, that was not my intent.
My intent is to promote the idea that GPSA needs to include the GPSA Council more and not revolve around an individual and their agenda.
� e GPSA structure needs to change, and that change should come from someone with a vision and a plan of creating a more representative organization.

Three words jump out at you when looking at Aux Dog’s newest produc-tion, “Offices.”
Those three words: “By Ethan Coen.”
Yeah, that Coen. Like the “kin-da funny lookin’” Dapper Dan Man, “The dude abides” kind of Coen. The three short, one-act plays run in secession without intermission and resemble a Coen brothers’ movie if you squint. There are similar themes and gags, and some of their style is there.
You’ve got your droll, bland lives of normals doused with sex or violence, black humor and heaping profanity.
It’s only half of the writing/direct-ing of Hollywood’s underdog broth-ers who crept onto the A-list over their film careers.
The Coen brothers are an insepara-ble unit when making films, so it’s bi-zarre to see Ethan’s name sitting alone on the writing credit.
But is the triple one-act lineup at Aux Dog comparable to the brothers’ clever, dark-film movie work?
Well, not really, no.It is funny. But not that funny.The pieces function more like mov-
ie scripts than plays, with slow lighting moving the characters from one dia-logue and separated office to the next.
It acted like a movie, mimicking the hard cuts that the medium can use for its own comic timing with uncomfort-able character interactions and awk-ward dialogue drop-offs.
But as a play, this technique killed the pace in too many places.
The set design for each play is more or less the same: nameless cubicle of-fice boxes for the shirt-and-tie corpo-rate worker bees.
The production’s central lighting and placement of the office’s bubbling
water cooler is the visual tour de force.The first piece, “Peer Review,” cen-
ters around a wannabe social dissi-dent preaching to employees who are too busy or stupid to care.
There’s no gag like a running one, and “Peer Review” runs as far as it can with its in-office copulation. It seems to imply that if office members would include the loud and lonely protago-nist in their community sexathon, he might be less upset.
Unfortunately, the joke’s value dies, and it becomes easy to anticipate the incoming sight gag, despite the clever-ness of the set design.
The tone is appropriately black, even poking fun at the protagonist’s inability to compare his corporate en-vironment to the writings of Kafka.
The ending is uninspired, however. As the Coen brothers’ work often
does, this play offers little resolution, but the bright and confusing final scene contrasts the rest of the piece and the endings of the following two.
Matthew Van Wettering is a stan-dard at Aux Dog, and audiences are all the happier for it. Wettering is al-ways funny, but he doesn’t get a lot to do. Somehow he makes every second count.
Many of the strongest actors in “Of-fices” have small roles.
Brennan Foster, in the role of the patient, powerful boss, is gone all-too soon.
The structure of the one-acts is similar: We almost exclusively follow our main character passing from one truncated movie scene to the next as he interacts with the Coen-kooky ensemble.
This is not a terrible system, albeit not the most conducive for stage.
It requires a strong protagonist, and here it’s simply not the reality. The best performances are hidden in the en-semble and receive the biggest laughs.
Joel Miller leads in the middle one-
act, “Homeland Security.” It captures the best satirical atmosphere, scripting and ending. It’s bleak and cute, twisty but familiar, and it certainly drops you on your ass.
The last piece, “Struggle Session,” is a bawdy, muddled morality tale about the squalid corporate landscape.
It features a fired-boss-turned hip-pie (Guy Darland), the moral man try-ing to stay that way (Micah Linford) and a loud, profanely derisive Hobo-Sage (Aaron DeYoung).
There isn’t much content or comic value.
The character arc of the boss de-scribes the positive aspect of change, while the moral man who gets his job worries that change for him will be negative.
It’s all a bit simple for the time the play takes to get all that out.
DeYoung essentially plays himself, alternating between profanely ripping people down to graphically discussing his invention of a new sex position — yet another sex-related running gag that incorporates another sight gag.
The sliding brick bum-wall is a clever design, but there is not much in the play that sticks with you.
“Offices” is certainly entertain-ing, especially to those who like that humor, but don’t expect it to be as exceptional as Aux Dog’s first 2011 productions.

Ties To The FleshRawrr
by Alexandra [email protected]
Arroyo Deathmatch plucked, drummed, and ukulele-ed its way to a first-place finish at UNM’s Battle of the Bands.
The band’s flutist Beth Hansen said the group assumed its unique folk-punk sound wasn’t what judges want-ed to hear.
“We thought we were out of the winning, because we’re acoustic, and you wouldn’t want an acoustic band playing Fiestas, so we just went for the experience,” she said.
Three friends, who went to high school together in Los Alamos, orga-nized the band a year and half ago. Alex DenBaars and Hansen, the group’s nu-cleus, said its washboard player joined a few months ago and its percussionist was added only weeks ago.
Still, the band’s cohesiveness was effectual. It arrived just before its set, and because it was close to the end of the lineup, it didn’t see many bands
perform. Just like it was for all the bands that competed, the show was a networking opportunity for Arroyo Deathmatch.
The band toured the West Coast twice and the Southwest three times, giving away 75 percent of its mer-chandise typically and never playing a show for more than a $5 cover charge, DenBaars said.
Jes Martin, the group’s cellist and accordionist, said the band’s sound and nontraditional instruments — flute, cello, accordion, homemade suitcase drum, washboard and ukule-le — stood in stark contrast to the typi-cal rock sound.
“We’re not just another band with guitar, bass, drums, vocals,” she said.
Having either attended or played in the event all four years he’s been at UNM, Mike Mares, a member of third-place band the Noms, said Battle of the Bands recognizes lesser-known talents.
“In competing for that one thing, you get to experience music that you
wouldn’t really experience on your own,” he said. “It’s a good start to building a community … I’m really advocating for a music community in Albuquerque, because it’s just such a small city, but there are so many good musicians and bands and different genres.”
It so happens that Arroyo Death-match is one of those small bands, but Mares said its stage presence was big-time.
“Overall I thought it was a good time, good vibe,” he said. “A good band is all about energy, presence, how you present yourself, and I thought they did a great job.”
DenBaars said the band, which has four albums out, will continue to record and play at venues.
“When we go on tour, it’s like see-ing friends,” he said. “Mostly we’re just going place to place being like, ‘Hey guys!’ I don’t think we have fans; we generally have friends. I think that’s a better way to do it, and it’s definitely worked for us.”
