Editor, A U.S. cartoonist now hides from Muslim threats. The U.S. government has told her to hide rather than hunt down Islamic organizations that support the fatwah death edict against her. Seattle Weekly editor-in-chief Mark D.
In the first part of this series on UNM transportation, I discussed how UNM Parking and Transportation Services needs to step up to reduce the carbon footprint created by UNM’s transportation system – especially from single-occupancy vehicles (SOVs). One of the best ways to reduce that carbon footprint is for people to rethink where they live. I know this is outside today’s paradigm, but managing your travel options makes sense in a world of human-created climate instability and decreasing natural resources.
Editor, What is most important in an election year is that voters get to know the candidates behind all the rhetoric before they cast their votes.

When the United Nations declared Sept. 21 the International Day of Prayer for Peace in 2002, it said the day should be “reminding us that our permanent commitment, above all interests or differences of any kind, is to peace.” That’s why UNM’s Inter-Religious Council (IRC) is putting aside its differences and working together to bring the Day of Peace to campus, said Andrea Schoeny, campus minister of communications for the UNM Aquinas Newman Center. “The IRC coming together on this event is a showing that peace is possible between people,” she said. Today, UN representatives of all religious backgrounds from the IRC will be in tents under the northeast grove near the Duck Pond from 9 a.m.
The Chronicle of Higher Education, a national publication, wrote an article about the breakdown of UNM’s shared governance after photos featuring an English professor and several graduate students surfaced on a sadomasochist website in 2007. The Sept.
Editor, I agree with Joanne Michaelsen (about the Daily Lobo’s lack of volleyball coverage). What a disappointment.
Editor, I’m writing to let you know that it’s OK to swallow. I know you’ve seen them: thick, bubbling pools of saliva and mucus glistening cheerfully in the sun.
Editor, I had strong mixed feelings last week when seeing the Daily Lobo’s headline, “Plagiarism up, punishment down.” Part of me resigned myself to it and part of me winced and said, “That better not be true!” I’m a 56-year-old scientist coming back to finish a Ph.D.
Editor, One of America’s best-kept secrets is the multitude of bisexual men. I met a gay Anglo who had been in the Navy.
As New Mexico’s luscious greens give way to crisp palettes of autumn gold and ginger, ASUNM rushes in with a program set about beautifying the campus. Fall Frenzy, a community-building event held this Friday, aims to spruce up UNM by planting flowers and trees around campus.
Lobo goalkeeper Justin Holmes was more worried about the sun than Harvard’s offensive attack Sunday. For nearly 110 minutes, Holmes shut out the Crimson at the UNM soccer complex on Sunday.
The UNM men’s soccer team outplayed — but didn’t outscore — another top-10 opponent at the UNM Soccer Complex on Sunday.
Utah Oh, and electrical problems created a lethal cocktail for the UNM football team’s third loss Saturday. Before the start of the second half, play between the UNM football team and No.
Editor, I have just returned from a visit to the UNM campus for a weekend of activities. I have to say I am extremely disappointed with the negative and pessimistic approach the Daily Lobo has taken with its sports coverage.
Dear Dr. Peg, I’m looking for someone to help me with my husband who is bipolar and refuses to get the help he needs.
Hundreds of bicyclists, escorted by Albuquerque Police, whirled down Central Avenue on Sunday to help promote bicycle safety. Organized by Bike ABQ and the Duke City Wheelmen Foundation, the second annual “Can You See Us Now?” ride started at Copper Avenue and Jefferson Avenue and went to Tiguex Park in Old Town. Jennifer Buntz, Duke City Wheelmen Foundation president and member of Bike ABQ’s Board of Directors, said the ride raises awareness about bicycling accidents.
Seems like study guides exist for everything these days, even life. Tim Nisly, the curator and host of TEDxABQ, said the short, carefully prepared talks given at Saturday’s event at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino are “the Cliff’s Notes for life.” “The idea is if you put a lot of intelligent people in a room and help them share ideas … the conversation as a result will make a major difference in the world,” Nisly said. TED, a non-profit organization that began nearly 25 years ago, brings the brightest minds together to spark innovation, Nisly said, and he hoped the ignition would occur in Albuquerque.
