UNM scientists, in collaboration with the University of Maryland, have received a $6 million grant from the federal government to study electronics in highly electromagnetic environments.The grant was awarded to create an Air Force Office of Scientific Research, which is a basic research funding agency.
Rick Lopez is running against Democrat Tim Eichenberg to be the first Republican state treasurer New Mexico has seen since 1948.The treasurer serves as the state’s banker and is responsible for handling its finances and investments.
A lifeless wedding dress sparkled under a blue light upon the stage. A remembrance of what could have been.
This is not Tim Eichenberg’s first rodeo.After a short hiatus from state politics, the 62-year-old Eichenberg is looking to make his return to the political arena.
The alarm clock rings and it’s time to get ready for school. The morning feels cold, but, like most New Mexico days, it will almost certainly get warmer.
It's really difficult to write about something so surreal.“As Five Years Pass” is functionally a play.
High expectations resulted in a sigh of relief rather than celebration at the William H. Tucker golf tournament. UNM head coach Glen Millican said in a release that the pressure to win the event for the third straight year at the UNM Championship Golf Course issued more of a relaxing response than a rewarding one. Gavin Green and the New Mexico men’s golf team can breathe easy after both took home first place trophies for the third consecutive year.
Greetings from the Executive Branch of the ASUNM Senate.This is our first of many Daily Lobo columns this semester, designed to inform undergraduate Lobos of upcoming events, resolutions and other such special items being considered and executed by the student government.Last week we saw two major events on campus, Red Rally and Fall Frenzy.
Editor,I am writing on behalf of students concerned about the manner that our University is conducting itself and the reputation it is forming.Since when has it been a University mission to promote sexual behavior that can and often results in sexually transmitted diseases and unplanned pregnancies?
For the second time in three games, New Mexico’s sloppy second-half play squandered an opportunity for victory. Despite leading at halftime, the Lobos (1-3) couldn’t overcome a second-half meltdown that led to a 35-24 loss against Fresno State. Head coach Bob Davie said the game reminded him of the 58-23 loss to Arizona State in which UNM kept the game close until falling apart in the second half.“The stage was set,” Davie said. “We’re not good enough yet to go perform against a team like that for the entire game, and then go win the game.”
Early-morning rain clouds parted and the sun illuminated psychics, gypsy dancers and henna healers who all came together to celebrate the autumnal equinox. Albuquerque Pagan Pride Day took over Baatan Park on Sunday to educate the public about pagan traditions, encourage community service and bring food to those in need during the harvest season, said Ramona Stipe, event coordinator and president of the board for Pagan Pride Day.The event was one of 115 that took place nationwide over the past week, all of which were aimed at helping others in a loving way and spreading awareness, Stipe said.
Editor,I strongly support equal rights for a woman to be top-free in public — if she wants to be.I love living naked at home and mostly naked elsewhere when I am warm enough. I enjoy living as naked as the weather and law allow.
One point of emphasis for Bob Davie during his time at New Mexico has been his team’s maturity, or lack thereof. Time and again the head coach has talked about the Lobos not being mature enough to execute for a full four quarters against quality teams.This was the case once again on Friday night as UNM dropped a 10-point first-half lead in a 35-24 loss to Fresno State at University Stadium. The game was both teams’ Mountain West opener.
State Sen. Tim Keller may look like the image of an All-American guy, with his side-swept blond hair, polo shirt and nicely manicured nails.But he has a dark secret.He loves heavy metal music.
Like most choices in Robert Aragon’s life, the decision to run for state auditor was not made in an office or at a meeting, but at his dinner table.That’s because, Aragon said, he doesn’t do anything without his family’s support, because his family comes first.“I’m a dad – and that sounds really corny, but one of the best things I’ve done in my life and the best things when I’m breathing my last breath will be raising our children,” he said.The 57-year-old father of three had had a promising political career at an early age.
A neuroscience researcher at UNM has found that mothers who drank water containing even moderate amounts of arsenic were more likely to birth children with depression and learning memory deficits later in life.Christina Tyler, a biomedical sciences graduate student, has developed a model using mice to measure the negative effects of exposure to arsenic and ways to counter those effects.Tyler’s pregnant mice were given access only to water that contained 50 parts per billion of arsenic – the same levels the average American adult drank prior to 2006.
UNM dropped its Conference USA opener 2-0 at Charlotte on Friday.
