Dear Dr. Peg, I have a friend who is doing the HCG diet with the drops, not injections, and wanted to know if you know about it and what you thought of it. From what I found out, they do it for 30-40 days and have a lot of restrictions and things they have to do and are on a 500-calorie diet.
Editor, At the current junction in history, I find it surprising that we haven’t transitioned to a point where religion has disappeared from our society.
Editor, An article in Friday’s Daily Lobo reports President Schmidly says “cost containment” is the answer. First on his list of spending items that will need department approval is “food.”
President Schmidly has said that Athletics is the University’s front porch, and I’d like to say that I think we need to remodel the porch.
Editor, I don’t know who gave permission for UNM’s general e-mail list to be used for Air Force recruitment purposes, but I strongly object to it.
Editor, I am an American Muslim who shares Jake Shalette’s frustration about the silence of Muslims, as expressed in a recent letter to the editor.
Editor, It has come as a relief to the world community that the U.N. has concluded its human rights investigation of the Israeli military raid on the Turkish civilian flotilla.
Editor, Less than a week ago, the Daily Lobo wrote a piece, “Plagiarism Up, Punishment Down.” The other day, “community member” Jake Shalette “wrote” a piece, too, except the piece was stolen from Donna Gordon Blankinship from the Associated Press. The original article talks about what one cartoonist did.
Editor, I am writing this letter in response to a previous letter to the editor in Tuesday’s Daily Lobo, “Social norms repress men’s desire for sexual exploration.” That letter was one of the most ludicrous, maudlin and solipsistic opinion pieces I have ever had the displeasure of reading.
Editor’s Note: Lobos Abroad is a regular column written by Daily Lobo staff members studying in a different country this semester.
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.
Editor, UNM is dealing with painful cuts in funding, with ramifications that include cutting phone lines, firing TAs, increasing class sizes and reducing class options for undergraduates.
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.
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.
