Seahawks will suffer Super Bowl Jinx

Ever since the Pittsburgh Steelers won last year's Super Bowl, I have been patiently waiting for the next NFL season to start. There is only so much World Cup, tennis and golf coverage a sports fan can take.

Letter: Use upcoming elections to stop Bush's terror reign

Editor, At some point, one has to hold President Bush - the perennial thief, pathological killer and addicted liar - unredeemable. That point has long been reached. In fact, it was already reached before the first term of his illegitimate presidency, when he was known to have put 152 defenseless people in the Texas prison system to death, many of them known to be innocent.

Swimming with the shark

UNM, NMSU partner on pharmacy program

UNM and New Mexico State University regents unanimously approved a program Saturday that will allow students to work toward a pharmacy degree at NMSU. John Pieper, associate vice president of UNM's pharmacy college, said the collaboration will boost the numbers of pharmacists in southern New Mexico. "We have in rural New Mexico, particularly in southern New Mexico, a definite shortage of pharmacists," he said. Albuquerque has about 120 pharmacists per 100,000 people, he said. Southern New Mexico has about 40, he said. "One of the ways of attempting to combat this is to work with other universities that have a home base in a different part of the state," he said. "NMSU seemed like an obvious choice."

Letter: 9/11 conspiracy shows need for a U.S. revolution

Call me crazy, but I just don't believe the official story of Sept. 11, 2001. I believe Flight 93 was shot down, resulting in the wreckage coming down in three locations up to eight miles apart. And why did the U.S. Air Force stand down in New York? Was it al-Qaida? Was it the confusion stemming from multiple war games and military exercises?

Health care concerns voiced

Greg Ortiz, former governor of Acoma Pueblo, said he is not happy with the American-Indian health care system in Albuquerque. "My family's been here (in Albuquerque) for decades, and they have to drive to Acoma sick," he said. Ortiz spoke Monday at a meeting of the Native Health Council of New Mexico that addressed the Albuquerque Indian Health Services' Contract Health Services Program. Some audience members said they were frustrated with the system. Vietnam veteran Albert Cata was one of them. "It's a crazy game we've got to play," he said. The meeting was the second in a series of gatherings put together by the council. The council was formed to address the health care needs of Albuquerque's American-Indian population, which is estimated at more than 45,000, said Roxane Spruce Bly, who helped organize the event. American Indians living in the city must navigate the contract health process in order to access many needed medical services, she said.

Letter: Terrorism not only crime that needs addressing

On Sept. 11, 2001, within 148 minutes, 2,973 people died. Today, 1,825 days later, about 2,660 Americans in Iraq, 330 Americans in Afghanistan and about 41,650 Iraqis have died. I know to each family and friend these are more than just numbers. To television networks, they're ratings. To everyone else, it just makes us cross our fingers or pray a little more for one reason or anoth

Lobos shut out Matadors

The UNM men's soccer team defense has proven to be one thing this season - stingy. The Lobos bounced back from a tough 2-0 loss to No. 10 UCLA on Friday night by shutting out Cal State-Northridge, 1-0, on Sunday.

Letter: Generation will remove Bible verses from politics

Editor, In his column in Friday's Daily Lobo, Mario Hernandez argued that all good Christians should support raising taxes to spend far more money on foreign aid, child health care and preschool. As a committed Christian who happens to support these three items as budget priorities, I am still disturbed by Hernandez's stance and tone.

Letter: Negative campaigns depend on ignorance

Editor, I share James Post's disdain expressed in Thursday's issue of the Daily Lobo for the negative ads that we see during elections, but I have to point out that Madrid is doing the same thing as Wilson. In one of her ads she states, "We have been in Iraq for 3 1/2 years and still no strategy.
