And now some of the site’s contributors are coming to Albuquerque. “e Unpopular Opinion World Tour of One City in the Southwest United States” will feature four comedians performing at two shows at the Guild eater tonight and Tuesday night. Adam Tod Brown is a Cracked writer and editor and the host of the Unpopular Opinion podcast, which was the inspiration for the one-city tour. Brown will be joined by friends and comedians Jeff May, Maria Shehata and Cat Rhinehart. “We don’t get to do much in the way of stand-up on the podcast, so we just wanted to go out and do that side of what we do and bring it to a live audience,” Brown said. “It’s an opportunity to get to do something we don’t normally get to do at Cracked, for an audience that we already connect with.” e podcast is based on Brown’s popular column, e People vs. Adam Tod Brown, in which he relates his strong opinions on a wide variety of issues. On the podcast, Brown gathers friends and fellow comedians to take him on, usually disagreeing with his views, with hilarious results, he said. “It’s always really funny,” Brown said. “e comics who are going to be with me in Albuquerque are regulars and favorites of the show.” May was a guest on the podcast’s first episode, and is no stranger to the Duke City, he said.

I’ve always left Albuquerque with a good taste in my mouth.” Before diving headfirst into a career in stand-up, May taught eighth-grade history for 10 years a job he said was good training for comedy, as he was familiar with trying to entertain an often hostile audience for an hour. “I decided to get into stand-up comedy because I was unhappy with my life and I wanted to live on my own terms,” May said. “It was basically just, ‘sink or swim, this is what I’m going to do.’” He moved to Los Angeles in 2012, where he quickly met and befriended Brown, he said. Since then he has become a regular guest on the podcast. While his true love continues to be live stand-up, May said that working on the podcast has been incredibly fun, although knowing that 20,000 people are listening to his voice can be a strange feeling. “More than anything, enter- taining people and making peo- ple laugh has always been a drug to me, and I want to find a way to make a living doing that,” May said. “I don’t care about being rich, I just want to make people laugh, what- ever medium I do that in.” Shehata is another regular guest on the podcast, and although she has never been to New Mexico, she is no stranger to touring, she said. She has been on three military tours, performing for soldiers all over the world, and she recently did shows in Palestine and Qatar, she said. “I’m not sure what to expect; I’ve never been to New Mexico or the Southwest, so I’m excited to see what the crowds are like,” Shehata said. “I feel like it’s going to be a By Robert Salas For the first time in New Mexico history, volunteers from the UNM law school’s clinical program met with members of the LGBTQ com- munity to provide legal assistance on specific issues.

I think the elections kind of snuck up on everyone.” In an informal survey conduct- ed by e Daily Lobo following the election, 14 of 20 undergraduates were aware that ASUNM elections had been held on Wednesday. Eleven of those 14 said they did not vote.

monday

By Jonathan Baca

It would be surprising to find a college student who has never read a Cracked.com article.

The website’s comedic lists, like “5 Adorable Behaviors That Mean Your Dog Hates You,” and “6 Unshakable Beliefs You Develop Growing Up a Redneck,” have made Cracked one of the most popular comedy sites on the net. And now some of the site’s contributors are coming to Albuquerque.

“The Unpopular Opinion World Tour of One City in the Southwest United States” will feature four comedians performing at two shows at the Guild Theater tonight and Tuesday night.

Adam Tod Brown is a Cracked writer and editor and the host of the Unpopular Opinion podcast, which was the inspiration for the one-city tour. Brown will be joined by friends and comedians Jeff May, Maria Shehata and Cat Rhinehart.

“We don’t get to do much in the way of stand-up on the podcast, so we just wanted to go out and do that side of what we do and bring

it to a live audience,” Brown said. “It’s an opportunity to get to do something we don’t normally get to do at Cracked, for an audience that we already connect with.”

The podcast is based on Brown’s popular column, The People vs. Adam Tod Brown, in which he relates his strong opinions on a wide variety of issues. On the podcast, Brown gathers friends and fellow comedians to take him on, usually disagreeing with his views, with hilarious results, he said.

“It’s always really funny,” Brown said. “The comics who are going to be with me in Albuquerque are regulars and favorites of the show.”

May was a guest on the podcast’s first episode, and is no stranger to the Duke City, he said.

Last summer May also performed at the Albuquerque Comic Expo and made lasting friendships with many locals, he said.

“I always seem to find myself in Albuquerque, and I always have an awesome experience,” May said. “I’ve already got people asking me to bring back Rebel Donuts to L.A. I’ve always left Albuquerque with a good taste in my mouth.”

Before diving headfirst into a career in stand-up, May taught eighth-grade history for 10 years – a job he said was good training for comedy, as he was familiar with trying to entertain an often hostile audience for an hour.

“I decided to get into stand-up

comedy because I was unhappy with my life and I wanted to live on my own terms,” May said. “It was basically just, ‘sink or swim, this is what I’m going to do.’”

He moved to Los Angeles in 2012, where he quickly met and befriended Brown, he said. Since

then he has become a regular guest on the podcast.

While his true love continues to be live stand-up, May said that working on the podcast has been incredibly fun, although knowing that 20,000 people are listening to his voice can be a strange feeling.

“More than anything, enter-taining people and making peo-ple laugh has always been a drug to me, and I want to find a way to make a living doing that,” May said. “I don’t care about being rich, I just want to make people laugh, what-ever medium I do that in.”

Shehata is another regular guest on the podcast, and although she has never been to New Mexico, she is no stranger to touring, she said.

She has been on three military tours, performing for soldiers all over the world, and she recently did shows in Palestine and Qatar, she said.

“I’m not sure what to expect; I’ve never been to New Mexico or the Southwest, so I’m excited to see what the crowds are like,” Shehata said. “I feel like it’s going to be a

For the first time in New Mexico history, volunteers from the UNM law school’s clinical program met with members of the LGBTQ com-munity to provide legal assistance on specific issues.

In New Mexico the LGBTQ community has made strides on its mission toward full equality under the law with the recent legalization of same-sex marriage. However,

there are still challenges the com-munity has yet to overcome, said John Flores, program coordinator for EQNM.

“LGBTQ community (mem-bers) face a lot of discrimination in their daily lives, and a lot of those cases end up being legal issues,” Flores said on Saturday. “We are constantly getting calls when folks have legal questions. We don’t have any attorneys on staff; we do more public education and advocacy.

Today’s event is a much-needed service for our community.”

The UNM School of Law’s Clinical Program service is one of the largest legal aid services in New Mexico, said Sarah Steadman, visiting professor at the School of Law.

Saturday’s inaugural service day has been long in the making: Over the past few years there has been a col-lection of law students and professors working on providing legal service to the LGBTQ community, she said.

“The students here today are all very invested in being of service to populations who would otherwise not have access to legal services and who are disadvantaged and who may have a history of being disenfranchised,” Steadman said.

The law students and professors touched on common legal issues such as wills, powers of attorney, divorce, custody questions and ad-vanced health care directives. For members of the LGBTQ commu-

nity, these common legal ques-tions can be uncomfortable to talk about, Steadman said.

“There are barriers to accessing legal services for the LGBTQ com-munity,” Steadman said. “They are worried about facing stigma and bias and so don’t know, historical-ly, whether legal services are going to welcome them.”

Voter turnout for last week’s Associated Students of the University of New Mexico Senate elections was a fraction of that seen in previous semesters.

The 682 Lobos who voted last Wednesday amounted to a meager 40 percent of those who got to the polls a year ago.

Hagengruber said she knows from experience that this semester’s candidates, whether they won or not, worked tirelessly to get students to support them.

“It does take a lot of work, talking to new people all the time and meeting with a new student organization every day,” she said. “It takes a lot of stepping out of your comfort zone.”

Numbers had steadily been on the rise for fall elections between

2007 and 2013, with the exception of a slight drop in 2012. Since 2005, this is the first time voter turnout has dropped by more than 500 stu-dents for a fall election, with 1,023 fewer students coming out to vote compared to last fall.

transgender issues such as legal name changes became a specific focus for the group of law students. In preparing for the event, the involved students and faculty attended an educational training, given by the Transgender Resource Center, on how to approach and address transgender individuals regarding legal matters.

Law student Ramon Maestas said the legal process for transgen-der individuals to change names can be delicate as well as challeng-ing. The reactions of some people to the transgender community can deter them from seeking legal as-sistance, he said. The collabora-tion between the UNM Clinical Law Program and EQNM provides

a comfortable environment where they can receive the assistance they seek, he said.

“It can be embarrassing for a transgender person to go anywhere and look like what society perceives as male, and have what society per-ceives as a female name,” Maestas said. “We want to help minimize that sort of thing by providing ser-

vices like the one today and making the process easier.”

Both organizations would like to see this collaboration estab-lished as a regular event to support the LGBTQ community overall, Flores said.

“These wonderful law students and professors are really making a huge contribution to our communi-

ty,” Flores said. “Their work here to-day is very much appreciated and we hope they will return in the future to help those in the LGBTQ community who need legal assistance.”

lot fun. Hopefully, a lot of students come out.”

Shehata produces a web series called My Super-Overactive Imagination, along with the tour’s fourth comedian, Rhinehart. The series was recently named Best Comedy at the 2014 Miami Web Fest.

She said online platforms like podcasts and web series make it possible to create something much more cheaply and easily, but that it is also harder to get

noticed in the sea of other voices. But that isn’t stopping her – she has big plans in the world of comedy, she said.

“I’m hoping with the mix of stand-up and the web series, I’ll eventually be able to have my own show,” Shehata said. “I want to write and star in my own show, that’s my big goal.”

Her brand of personal, bru-tally honest comedy is what sets Shehata apart and helps her con-

nect to fans in a meaningful way, she said.

“I’ve always liked comedy, being able to watch something and relate to someone else and think ‘I’m not alone in this.’ I’ve always liked that connection,” she said. “If you boil it down, that’s basically it: I want to connect.”

Brown said the shows in Albuquerque are a test run, and if they go well it could lead to a larger national tour.

May is excited to reconnect with old friends and make new ones in a town that has already shown him so much love, he said.

“I love performing,” he said. “I’m in love with it, and I want it to love me back.”

Hagengruber said she has had encounters with students who sim-ply don’t see the importance of taking the time to cast a ballot, and that this attitude hurts ASUNM and the University as a whole. She said participating in elections helps the student government, which in turn helps the student body.

“I think it’s doing a disservice to your school by not voting, because these senators all really want to be here, and they need your votes to

get on,” she said. “If students are going to complain about decisions the student government makes, then you need to vote.”

Gabe Gallegos, a freshman stra-tegic communications major with aspirations of serving on ASUNM, advocates the difference it makes for UNM when students turn out to vote.

“Who you choose as your student representatives through ASUNM matters because they

make important decisions and advocate to UNM administration on behalf of all undergraduates,” Gallegos said. “It’s important to make your voice heard.”

Hagengruber said the amount and methods of promoting ASUNM elections differ each year depending on who is the elections commissioner. Previous years have seen events lasting a month or more to bring attention to elections and their importance, she said.

Candidates did most of the promoting this year, utilizing flyers, chalk and teamwork to inspire students to support them. Eight of the nine members of the STRIVE slate were elected on Wednesday to serve as senators.

Hagengruber said last week’s election is a learning experience for everyone involved. She said that students who don’t vote are mak-ing just as big an impact as those who do.

“I do wish that more people would understand the impact that it has when you don’t vote,” she said. “If everyone came out and voted for who they wanted to represent them, you might see different results. I don’t know if I would be here.”

Yesterday I visited the governor’s office and asked to speak with you or Susan Velasquez.  I was told you were not in the office. Ms. Velasquez was in the office, but Ms. Mindi Smith came out to greet me. 

I provided her with three recent screen shots that illustrate the alarming and cruel behavior some habitually use on unprotected wildlife, such as the coyote.

The photo was recently posted by one of the NM groups that organize these events. It is unpleasant and it is not

uncommon to see pictures such as this posted by participants who engage in this blood sport.

I explained to Mindi I have been waiting for months to learn from you when we can meet to discuss animal killing contests in New Mexico.

I have yet to receive anything in writing from the governor, or you, regarding my concern.

When I asked Mindi if the governor has seen my letter from 2013, she said ‘no.’

What address or means do I need to employ for the governor to read my correspondence? 

She also stated that it is your decision if a statement or press conference will occur. On Feb. 20, 2014, Mindi called me for you and said a public statement would not be

released regarding killing contests in NM.How do constituents reach the New

Mexico governor personally?Mindi advised me to confer with my

legislators for this matter.  I explained to her, at length, how my State Representative Larry Larrañaga (District #27) has not been responsive to my many means of communication in 2013. 

By my fellow volunteers’ count,  NM is leading the United States in the number of animal killing contests.  Between Aug. 2013 and July 2014, at least 15 killing contests were condoned in NM alone. 

Not only were coyotes slaughtered, but prairie dogs, too.  Nationally, there were approximately 114 killing contests.  Behind

NM, Wyoming and Arizona had 10 contests each; Pennsylvania and Texas had nine each; and Idaho, seven.  Some of these contests included slaughtering crows, pigeons and squirrels, too.

NM wildlife is under siege and I am requesting the governor’s leadership and help to stem the wanton slaughter.

My fellow volunteers and I are committed to seeing killing contests outlawed nationally, and we hope NM is the first state to do so.

Will you help us?

Sincerely,Brenda G. McKennaVolunteerWildlife Conservation Advocates Southwest 

Editor,

Much post-election coverage has analyzed how and why candidates won or lost, but the biggest loser was the American public. A small cadre of large donors drowned out the voices of average citizens.

In the gubernatorial race it took only six large donors to outspend all 3,211 small donors of $250 or less, and 74 percent of contributions came from individuals giving more than $1,000.

In the wake of the Supreme Court’s recent decisions undermining federal campaign finance rules, most notably Citizens United v FEC, New Mexico’s elections have become increasingly flooded by large donations. In a democracy, the size of your wallet should not determine the volume of your voice. However,

the current system forces our elected officials to focus on a few large donors rather than the majority. It is not them at fault, but the system.

There are successful, proven models to empower small donors so that their voices play a more central role in our democracy, such as providing tax credits and public matching funds for small donations. For example, in New York City’s 2013 city council campaigns, small donors were responsible for 61 percent of participating candidates’

contributions, when funds from a matching program are included.

I applaud our U.S. Reps. Michelle Lujan Grisham and Ben Ray Luján for taking action by supporting legislation to empower small donors and implore our local elected officials to take the lead right here in New Mexico.

Sincerely,Sean ForanProgram director, NMPIRG

Both the men’s and the women’s New Mexico cross country teams will be pack-ing their bags to compete in the national championships.

� e women were able to breathe easier knowing they were headed to Terre Haute, Indiana, directly following the second-place � nish in the 6-kilometer race at the UNM North Golf Course on Friday.

� e men, on the other hand, did not get an automatic bid to the national stage fol-lowing their seventh-place 10-kilometer bid at the Mountain Region Championships. In-stead, the Lobos earned an at-large bid from the Division I Men’s and Women’s Track and Field Committee on Saturday.

“It was a really good run for the women,” head coach Joe Franklin said. “For the men, I’m not sure what happened.”

Redshirt freshman Alice Wright came in � rst place for the Lobos despite losing track of the number of kilometers she had run. Wright said she decided to make a move at the 4k mark, but did so when she was only at the 3 kilometer plateau.

The mental mistake wasn’t an issue, however, as Wright had plenty of time to spare on her 20:51.10 run. The England native said not having to travel for the Mountain Region Championships gave her an advantage.

“� e support was absolutely amazing,” Wright said. “I feel very at home here, and just having everyone around makes it fun.”

� e No. 9 UNM women’s cross country team had three runners � nish in the top ten, and the team as a whole ended the day with 56 points, falling short of Colorado’s 43. BYU came next, � nishing in third place with 112 points.

Wright said the team did not have to � n-ish � rst to come out of the race victorious, al-though � nishing � rst would have been nice.

“Obviously we all want the win,” Wright said. “But we weren’t going in for the win; it was more that we made sure that we quali-� ed for nationals.”

Franklin said Wright is improving rapidly in her redshirt freshman campaign which led to a great day for the women overall.

“She keeps getting better and better and really put the hammer down in the last mile,” Franklin said. “� e women were outstanding.”

On the other hand, the No. 13 male run-ners didn’t have a single runner � nish in the top 10, and only senior Ross Matheson � n-ished in the top 25.

Franklin said he was ba� ed by the men’s � nish, but he knows that it wasn’t due to lack of e� ort.

“You’re never disappointed,” Franklin said. “We struggled, and I’m not sure why.”

Even though both teams didn’t get an automatic bid, the men and women will be headed to the championships together for

a sixth straight year. UNM is just the third team in the nation to send both genders to the NCAA Division 1 National Cross Country Championships from 2009-2014.

Whether it is a runner-up placement at the Mountain Region Championship or an at-

large bid, both the men and women will be competing on Saturday among the nation’s best.

New Mexico is starting to gain a reputation for being competitive, but that reputation isn’t backed up by many wins this season.

That didn’t change Saturday against Utah State in Logan, Utah.

UNM found itself back in the game when redshirt freshman quarterback Lamar Jordan hit wide senior receiver Tyler Duncan for a 59-yard touchdown, cutting Utah State’s lead to just 28-21 with 4:17 left in the game.

The Lobo defense had a shot to get the ball back afterward, but on third-and-2 at Utah’s 33, running back Joe Hill rushed for 5 yards, clinching the Aggies’ 28-21 win. With the loss, UNM falls to 3-7 (1-5 Mountain West) and is thus ineligible for a bowl game for the seventh straight year.

“We’re good enough to be close,” UNM head coach Bob Davie said. “When a team puts the hammer down, they still have more juice than we have to put the hammer down at the end.”

UNM’s triple-option offense ran for 246 yards on the night, which amounts to the most rushing yards allowed by Utah State this season. However, the Aggies were able to hold the Lobos to just 74 yards on the ground in the second half.

Redshirt freshman running back Romell Jordan led the Lobos with 96 rushing yards – 72 came on one touchdown run – on nine attempts. Lamar Jordan was second with 80 rushing yards. The quarterback also completed 8 of 18 passes for 154 yards with one interception.

“I felt, offensively, we did enough that we probably could’ve won that game, honestly,” Davie said.

The Aggies actually outrushed the Lobos by 26 yards (272-246) and had 422 yards of total offense on the night. Wideout JoJo Natson

led Utah State with 70 yards, including a 48-yard touchdown, and tailback Joe Hill was second with 63 yards on 10 carries.

Freshman quarterback Kent Myers threw for 150 yards on 13 of 21 attempts with a touchdown and an interception.

“They’ve got some players,” Davie said. “No. 9 (Natson) is a guy who can do some things; No. 3 (halfback Devonte Robinson) is a good player.”

At the start of the second quarter, Utah State took a 14-7 lead when Robinson scampered 59 yards to the endzone.

UNM answered on the sec-ond play of its next drive when Romell Jordan took a handoff up the middle and dashed 72 yards for the score. That run was the longest Utah State (8-3, 5-1 MW) had given up since 2007.

After the teams traded punts, Myers connected on a 10-yard score to tight end Wyatt Houston for a 21-14 lead with just 1:59 left in the first half.

“It hurts, honestly. I feel badly for the seniors because we need-ed three (more wins to qualify for a Bowl game) and we were sev-en points away,” Romell Jordan said. “We fought till we couldn’t fight anymore.”

Riddle fells another long-standing record

Sergio Jiménez / Daily Lobo / @SXfoto

Lobo redshirt senior right-side hitter Chantale Riddle, center, jumps while keeping the ball in play during the game against Colorado State on Saturday at Johnson Gym. Riddle became the University of New Mexico’s all-time leader in career kills on Saturday.

Staff Report

In the space of just seven days Chantale Riddle has climbed to the top of the record books with two prestigious New Mexico vol-leyball records.

With 18 kills on Nov. 8, Riddle became New Mexico’s all-time leader in points, and on Saturday Riddle ascended to claim sole possession of UNM’s kill throne. Both records were held by Lobo alumnae Tania Gooley.

“It’s very important,” Riddle said in a release. “It means a lot to be a part of something so big. The Lobo program was so strong when Tania was here, so to beat her finally is amazing.”

Riddle came into the game against ninth-ranked Colorado State (26-2, 14-1 MW) needing just seven kills to tie Gooley’s re-cord. In the 3-1 loss, Riddle accu-mulated exactly eight kills, giving her a total of 1,580 kills.

The All-American lefty out of Roswell, New Mexico, has put to-gether quite a career in her tenure as a Lobo, and with two games left the redshirt senior will continue to increase that total.

Aside from ranking first in points, attempts and kills, Riddle is second in blocking assists with 379 and is second with 432 total blocks.

Riddle has won Mountain West Player of the Week twice this season and added an AVCA National Player of the Week award earlier this year.

Although Riddle is no stranger to accumulating accolades, her number-one priority has been to win. UNM has been within shout-ing distance of making the nation-al tournament, but has not been able to attend the tournament while Riddle has been a player. The Lobos did make the tourna-ment during Riddle’s freshman campaign, but the right-side hit-ter was redshirting that year.

Riddle achieved the record-breaking mark against a CSU team that has been considered a major conference rival.

However, the Lobos (18-11, 10-6 MW), have now been de-feated by the Rams for the sec-ond straight year in Riddle’s final season as a Lobo. UNM has only managed to take one set from the Rams this season, and with just two games remaining, the Lobos are in a fight to take third.

“We were pretty disappoint-ed in the match,” Nelson said in a release. “We made too many errors and we feel like we beat ourselves.”

By Kyle Tomasi

On a night full of turquoise-accented jerseys the New Mexico men’s basketball team found itself in a dogfight with Cal State Fullerton.

The Lobos led almost the entire game, but could never seem to shake the pesky Titans. Five straight free throws by sophomore guard Cullen Neal sealed the game for the Lobos in a 67-59 win on Saturday at the Pit.

The Lobos hit 9 of 12 free throws down the stretch and finished 24-36 from the line while the Titans shot seven, connecting on two of them.

“I’m proud that our guys hung in there and won the game,” head coach Craig Neal said. “It was one of those ones that you just couldn’t get a flow going. We didn’t come out really well.”

The Lobos (2-0) struggled in the first half against the Titans, but still managed to shoot 45 percent (9-20) from the field and 50 percent (2-4) from behind the three-point line. They fin-ished the game shooting 48.7 percent (19-39) and 55.6 percent (5-9) from the three-point line.

Senior guard Hugh Greenwood saw his shots falling in the first half, but only shot

twice in the second half. He finished with 11 points.

“I think Hugh would do whatever it takes to win,” Craig Neal said. “Hugh is so selfless that it’s not a big thing if he doesn’t get a lot of shots.”

Redshirt sophomore forward Devon Williams chipped in with a halftime buzz-er-beating layup and finished the first half with six points on 2-2 from the floor, 2-2 from the free throw line. He finished with seven points and four rebounds.

At the half, the Lobos led 31-23 and Greenwood led all scorers with 11 points, four rebounds and one assist.

After a poor shooting performance in the first half, Cullen Neal came out in the second and hit 3 of 4 shots from the field, all of which were three-pointers. He fin-ished the game with 23 points, 21 of them coming in the second half.

Craig Neal walked down the ramp sport-ing black and turquoise plaid slacks while the Lobos wore their Nike N7 jerseys.

“Nike takes care of us,” Neal said. “They knew we were doing the N7 game, and I told them to find me some turquoise pants, so this is what I found.”

The jerseys were auctioned off at halftime, and proceeds go to both the UNM American Indian Student Services and the Notah Begay III Foundation (NB3). The twelve game-worn jerseys raised $4,430 for the two organizations.

The Lobos will face Boston College on Nov. 20 in the ESPN Puerto Rico Tip-Off.

They will return to The Pit on Nov. 30 to face the USC Trojans.
