There has been a recent brouhaha in the corporate and Zionist-dominated media in regards to the role of Saudi Arabia in the 9-11 attacks. It has been said that President Obama is considering declassifying 28 classified pages of the 9-11 commission report which speaks of Saudi's involvement in the 9-11 attacks.
When I saw the Department of Justice’s findings on how UNM has been handling instances of assault on campus, I was sadly not surprised. In case you missed it, UNM’s handlings of reports “fail to comply with federal law”. What is the school planning to do about this? I’m getting really tired of nearly every month receiving some kind of notification that an assault has happened, only to see it described as a “groping” or “unwanted hugging”.
A certain naive attitude persists on campus about its relative safety and the measures in place to protect students. To be blunt, cold and sobering, I have to say that the University’s passive security measures are inadequate to protect students, especially those whose schedule has them out on the fringes of campus after dark. If one has trouble believing this reality, look no further than the most recent Lobo Alert that was sent out to us. A student was attacked just before 9 p.m. on April 21, and the best the University could do for those of us around was to send a text five and a half hours after the incident.
I constantly collect wisdom every day in order to live it. We have much to learn from other cultures. The native Tiruray people, who lived in the southern Philippines in the 1960s, enjoyed complete equality between men and women. Men were not above women, women were not above men – in any way. A spirit of harmony – no battles of men against women, no battles of women against men. Caring, non-violence, warmth, nurturing, sharing and empathy were not considered feminine qualities; they were human qualities – the right way for both men and women to be. Bravery, confidence, clear thinking, boldness in sex and boldness in conversation were not considered masculine qualities; they were human qualities – the right way for both men and women to be. Toughness, dominating others and taking advantage of others was not right for men or women. Men and women deeply understood and helped each other.
ld like to take this opportunity to address Hillary Clinton supporters. If you are not aware by now, then there is a certain faction within our government known as the neoconservatives or "neo cons" for short. This group published a paper called "Rebuilding America's Defenses" in which they argued that after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States should use its superior military strength to dominate the rest of the world by the barrel of a gun.
I sure like food, don’t you? Without food, as a matter of fact, there would stop being people. We are getting closer and closer to running out of bees that pollinate over 70 percent of our foods. In the last year, over 50 percent of bee colonies died in New Mexico due to a recently popular pesticide called Neonics.
As a native New Mexican and a college student, I care a lot about having clean drinking water in this city. Not having clean drinking water is a big problem for all of us. But it's especially a big problem for our kids and future generations of New Mexicans. Growing up in New Mexico my father and I went on a lot of river rafting trips in New Mexico on rivers like the Rio Chama and a lot of the other rivers.
I drink no booze. Booze has devastated the lives of many of my friends. Booze causes car crashes, paralyzing and killing thousands, including my niece Rachel. Booze causes awful family fights, ruined romances, horrible holiday memories ... I do not want to make it easier for me to say or do things I later terribly regret. Men wake up in jail not remembering stabbing their wife or buddy while drunk the night before.
A comprehensive look at the history of pot, and the eventual benefits of its legalization, from the 1960s through the 2040s.
15 years ago April 7 was the last time I rode in any car! I have not owned a car for 36 years. I damn wars for oil! I condemn fracking. Cars cause catastrophic climate chaos. Cars poison the air. Highways, streets, parking lots and garages smother millions of acres of fertile soil needed for growing food and trees. Trees soak up the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide.
Civic resignation is the head bowed to the inexorable outcome; the shrug that follows two centuries of democracy at half mast; the unquieted, Flint-Michigan-state-of-dread that knows that someone will put something in the tap.
The Panama Papers leak has brought the world’s attention to tax dodgers among the rich and the powerful, reminding us that a large percentage of the world’s tax “havens” are on British-ruled islands.
The recent bill that was passed in Texas has been a hot topic as of late. S.B. 11, also known as the campus carry law, is a new law that will allow anyone who possesses a concealed carry license to be able to carry a gun on campus. The law does however, give discretion to universities to allow them to tweak and create some restrictions.
Randy Ko is more than just your typical candidate for the president of the student body. He is unique and necessary because he is a commuter student like the vast majority of us students, a rarity in student body presidents. He lives in the reality that many students could be more involved in the university and seeks to show students that there is something at the University for everyone. Student collaboration defines student success by giving them connections and experiences that will stay with them for a lifetime.
Senator John McCain recently criticized the US war effort against ISIS. In a letter to Defense Secretary Ashton Carter, McCain said, “My conversations with military commanders both on the ground and in the Pentagon have led me to the disturbing, yet unavoidable conclusion that they have been reduced from considering what it will take to win to what they will be allowed to do by this administration.”
With 2016 being a U.S. election year, talk of the presidential race is dominating the national landscape. College campuses especially tend to be a popular hotbed of discussion. Groups lobbying for particular candidates are formed, students volunteer to work in local campaign offices and they register to vote, many for the first time. Forums may be held, debate watch parties scheduled, respectful arguments hashed out late at night while taking a break from homework.
This is the era when the processing of Big Data by artificial intelligence is revealing things about you and your past that even you don’t know -- revealed not to you, but to those who are looking to use what they find to act maliciously against you, both transnational criminal enterprises, and Big Government saying it is all for the greater good, of course.
Your letter regarding healthcare in the US was interesting to say the least and highly misinformed as well. You seem to feel that providers of healthcare may arbitrarily decide how and when they will treat patients.
We are writing in response to a letter on March 31st regarding UNM Parking and Transportation Services (PATS). Having worked directly with PATS in the past, we can say that they are some of the kindest people you will ever meet. Their primary mission is to serve the students of UNM and they are very clear and enthusiastic about that in any conversation you have with them. Because of this, we think it is only fair to clear up some misconceptions that are widely held all over campus.
Protagoras was among the first partisans of the so-called social contract, a compromise prohibiting the stronger from injuring the weaker that ratified (in effect) the foundation of democratic government—and strength in the modern age has been principally economic. Wall Street one-percentism is the unambiguous dissolution of the social contract; the Sanders movement represents its surprised restoration.
