Editor, If a 48-hour deadline was good enough to get Saddam Hussein and his Republican Guard out of Iraq, why isn't it enough time to get President Bush's Republican Guard out of Iraq? The only terrorist who followed us home from the last territorial pissing in Iraq was U.
Yanni's Mediterranean Grill and Opa Bar is the fine dining experience avid food lovers search for. The Nob Hill Greek paradise opened 12 years ago. With Greek food on my mind, I walked in and was greeted by co-owners Nick Kapnison and Jimmy Daskalos, who showed me to my beautiful window seat.
Living on campus is an experience every college student should have, said Randy Boeglin, director of Residence Life. Boeglin said living in the dorms helps students become well-rounded. "It's part of that whole helping one grow and develop in a holistic sense," he said. "We want them to live a self-authored life. What's more powerful than a self-authored life?"
Feist The Reminder Available Now Leslie Feist could be considered the Canadian love child of Enya and Bright Eyes. Striking a balance between upbeat and painstakingly slow, The Reminder is a fusion of piano, soft horn and dreamlike vocals. The first single, "My Moon My Man," feels like a mistake when ...
Editor, On Thursday, a student organization identified as the Salam Coalition prepared a very edifying and informative event at Smith Plaza in which it constructed a miniature replica of the wall being erected between the West Bank and Israel. The foremost purpose of this project was to increase awareness and to educate UNM by bringing the outcomes of global incidents closer to our community in a diplomatic way.
Zach Condon's life changed with one phone call on the UNM campus. "I received this phone call one day literally walking to class saying, 'Do you want to release this album?'" the Beirut front man said of his critically acclaimed album Gulag Orkestar.
Kurt Vonnegut is dead. Can we finally call him one of the best writers ever?
A laptop stolen in San Francisco on Wednesday might have had the personal information of about 3,000 UNM employees, said Susan McKinsey, a University spokeswoman. The laptop was in the office of a consulting firm doing work on UNM's human resources and payroll systems. The information included names, home addresses, e-mail addresses and UNM ID numbers.
Editor, The growth of the human population has had a large effect on the environment and its health. As pointed out by Phil Carter's letter in Wednesday's Daily Lobo, we are facing a biological crisis that threatens not only our beloved wolves but all those in the ecosystem, including humans, flora, fauna, animals and everything else that adds beauty to our world.
Editor, It seems to me that global warming is a government conspiracy for several plausible reasons. First of all, Earth, much like a living organism, has natural cycles that it must go through. According to a recent "Naked Science" documentary that aired on the National Geographic channel, the gravitational forces between Earth and the moon are slowly growing weaker.
There may not have been a better way for the UNM track and field team to end its regular season. The Lobos won 15 of 38 events at Saturday's Don Kirby Memorial Invitational, the last competition before the conference championships.
Editor, I will be placing five notebooks entitled "Book of Worries" all around the UNM campus today. The books are an invitation to anyone who comes across them to share their daily stresses and worries anonymously on the blank pages provided. Afterward, share your own worries by replacing the book where you found it.
Editor, I am writing this letter on behalf of the financially distressed and disenfranchised students at UNM who are deeply concerned about the recent tuition increase. I have attended UNM since 2005, and every year, the tuition increases with no consideration for the people who are impacted the most - financially distressed and disenfranchised students who do not have a broad range of financial resources at their immediate disposal.
Matt and Mark Henry have been focused on coaching the UNM track and field team, so talking about their retirement isn't their favorite topic. However, ask the athletes on the team about the coaches, and they will talk at length about their admiration of the Henrys.
The Food and Drug Administration, responsible for inspecting produce in the U.S., recently admitted that it inspected only about 1 percent of the 8.9 million imported food shipments in 2006.
by Adrian Doerfler Daily Lobo It didn't take long for freshman Jodi Ewart to make a splash on the UNM women's golf team. Ewart was named Mountain West Conference Freshman Player of the Year and Co-player of the Year after winning the MWC Women's Golf Championship on April 21.
A hit batter, two errors and a blooper in the second inning sealed Hawaii-Hilo's fate in a win for the UNM baseball team Sunday. The Lobos scored five runs off two hits in the second en route to a 12-2 victory.
Editor, Though my colleagues and I continue to submit opinions to the Daily Lobo, it appears that the opinion editor refuses to publish almost anything that even hints at a conservative opinion. The majority of the letters published in the last several weeks have shown a preponderance of far-left liberal leanings, some of which are totally ludicrous.
Staff Report Quincy Black is taking his football career to the next level. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers selected Black, a former UNM linebacker, as the fourth pick in the third round of the NFL Draft on Saturday. Black was the 68th pick overall. Black could not be reached for comment Sunday.
