Last week I saw several patients who were suffering from anxiety. Granted, this was the week before Fall Break, and by the time this article hits the stands, perhaps the break will have calmed some people down, but anxiety is common enough that I think it worth addressing.
Editor, Many adults get rich off poisoning kids’ bodies and minds. Many churchgoers are horrified when kids kill kids and old people, but these are the same churchgoers who have no conscience against paying Uncle Sam tax dollars to kill kids and old people in other nations.
They never cease to amaze me, the thoughts of many in this country regarding socialism. Many reject it outright with scorn and derision and remain blissfully ignorant that America already has forms of socialism at work in it. When tax dollars are taken from people and spent by the government for the betterment of society, that is socialism.
Dear Lobo Colleagues, Somehow October has snuck up on us, bringing wonderfully blustery fall evenings and the anticipation of snow. As fall break ends and the semester picks up again, we would like to thank everyone for their support and encouragement during the first half of the semester.
Sun: it’s everywhere. Get used it. That might as well be the motto of the entire American southwest, especially New Mexico and Arizona. The entire region is blessed by the perfect intersection of several climatological and meteorological factors
Editor, On October 1, 2013 the United States government partially shut down. This was due to a budget dispute between the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate, over the funding of the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare).
Oct. 1 was a big day in American health care history, the day the online insurance marketplaces opened up under the Affordable Care Act. From now until March 31, 2014, you can go online to healthcare.gov and shop for the plan that fits you best. There is a lot of information out there, I know, and I don’t mean to overload you.
Editor, On Nov. 19, Albuquerque voters will decide whether the city government should interfere with a woman’s decision to end a pregnancy. Before going to the polls, voters should ask themselves, “Is this really the government’s business?”
First off, I’d like to congratulate the Lobo football team on its 66-17 victory over NMSU. The game sold out of student tickets, which is something that hasn’t been seen in quite some time. Together, let’s make it a goal to sell out of student tickets for every sporting event.
Dear Daily Lobo, Thank you for your participation in the UNM Lobo, which teaches journalism to a new generation. I’d like to give you a little feedback on last Friday’s article, “SAE: 15 years of sexual assault allegations.”
I want to thank you for coming out and being part of our win over New Mexico State on Saturday. It was a special night for our football team and our entire university, and to do it in front of a sold-out student section was invaluable.
Angelica Torrez is just another face on campus to most who see her. However, getting to know her, she is so much more than that; she’s smiley and happy, always chatting with anyone interested in sharing a moment with her. She’s never alone, constantly surrounded by friends and always so happy to be alive.
We all know what rejection feels like. Some of us even know what rejection looks like. The cashier at Smith’s knows I have been rejected when she scans bottles of white wine, Pull n’ Peel Twizzlers and Milano cookies.
We prayed for rain and then we prayed for it to stop. Drought has been an increasing reality of New Mexicans’ existence over the past few years. Of the majority of the western United States declared drought-stricken this year, New Mexico was one of the most affected, with the last three years being both the hottest and driest on record.
Editor, I am writing in regards to the political cartoon in the Sept. 18 issue of the Daily Lobo. The cartoon featured a suited Democrat Donkey telling a man entering the Washington Navy Yard with a gun to ‘Halt! Or I’ll pass more laws!’
If you are feeling sick, is there a way to determine if you have a bacterial versus viral infection without going to the clinic? For example, temperature? Swollen glands? Green snot? Coughing up stuff?
Editor, If I were a part of the staff at the Daily Lobo, I would reconsider the Facebook requirement and return to a system of anonymity. First, let me say that I am an UNM alumnus and very proud of it.
Dear colleagues: As we enter our seventh week of the fall semester, the Graduate and Professional Student Association would like to update you on all the exciting changes and happenings which are upon us.
Editor, The Daily Lobo has no obligation to provide a forum for commenters on its content, much less to enable the anonymous name-calling, word salads and spam that populate many comment threads, but by restricting the privilege of posting comments to Facebook users, the Lobo is tacitly endorsing an agenda of profit-motivated surveillance and sousveillance.
Where have all the trolls gone? Recently, the Daily Lobo took the admirable step of changing its online comment submission policy to help combat the epidemic of hateful, insulting remarks being posted anonymously on the site by internet trolls.
