It was 2007, and Joshua Burns had just moved back to New Mexico to start a family in the “booming” film industry.
The UNM Cancer Center and Sandia National Laboratories have taken one small step in the fight against cancer — a very, very small step.

Did you know we are living in an Anthropocene Age? Yep. According to geologists, humans have so messed up our planet in the last 12,000 years that we have created a new epoch of geological time. Marked by monocultures and mass extinction of species, the Anthropocene Age means, “human epoch” and is truly a time to call our own. Geological time is perhaps the slowest and least affected shift of time. Usually marked by millions of years rather than a few lifetimes, it seems ludicrous that the effect of humans could have such an immense force as altering it. But a growing number of scientists say there is substantial evidence that humans have drastically changed the Earth, and the Holocene Age (which we are in now) is over.
Prohibition of any kind doesn’t work, and that is because prohibition is a regulation of morality. It isn’t finding justice, saving money or even keeping people from hurting themselves. Prohibition is the censorship of morality and any government body cannot be successful in that pursuit. The Temperance Movement was a religious movement to drive out the evils of America. At the time that evil was alcohol — people weren’t just opposed to alcohol but also to apples — which were almost exclusively grown to make alcohol. People started taking axes to apple trees all over the country and a campaign was waged against the “devil’s fruit.” Luckily the war against apples was never taken as far as the war against marijuana. I am going to cover the reasons given why marijuana is illegal.
I am not religious. At times, I’ve wished I was. I always hear people talking about religion in a way that elevates it as one of the more important things in life. But so far, God’s great glory has never fallen upon my face. And I wonder, why? So many people are devout about something. People have such reverent emotions and thoughts about the world, and I, for the most part, have been completely left out.
I want to eat cows. I want to eat ribs, burgers, steaks and even bottom round roast (the butt). I would love to swim in the fluffy meat pillows of steak goodness, indulging my continuously growing gluttony. But, the Man keeps screwing my meat fantasy. I can’t, in any good conscience, eat beef.
I’m taking a sustainability class. We’re talking about food sheds, or the perimeter around Albuquerque in which getting food from is considered local and sustainable. Albuquerque has a food shed of about 300 miles.
Mike Mares sings and plays acoustic guitar for local group The Noms. The eight-month-old band is recording an album and plays a self-described “acoustic pop” that led to victory in UNM’s last Battle of the Bands.
In 2005, Hurricane Katrina descended upon New Orleans causing one of the worst natural disasters in the United States’ history. The hurricane subjected much of the city to Category 1- and 2-strength winds. The hurricane also resulted in the failure of 53 breeches of the federally built levee system protecting the urban New Orleans.
Is anything sustainable? Newton’s laws of physics tell us that an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. Where in a tangible world is there ever not an interaction between two forces? Perpetual motion, much like happiness or the concept of sustainability, is not possible without constant interaction of outside forces in the real world. Once we see what is needed of the individual, if there really is such a thing, we can then step in and continue the motion. It just might have to take place without a combustion engine, but more with the sweat of our brow.
Micheal Larsen, vocal artist for Eyedea and Abilities, said he and Gregory Keltgen, aka Abilities, are back on the road after taking a couple of years off from touring. Their new album, “By the Throat,” was released in July and has had a good response, Eyedea said. It’s a mix of talented turntable skills, thoughtful lyrics and freestyling with some rock ‘n’ roll thrown in. The band opened up for Atmosphere at the Aug. 15 “When God Gives You Ugly” tour at the Paolo Soleri in Santa Fe.
