The air of excitement suddenly turned somber at the Teaching Awards Ceremony on Thursday afternoon, when the most prestigious award winner gave a speech about the decline of UNM’s core mission – education.
Dan Lewis has been with Warehouse 508 in every step of its metamorphosis — from a dead-on-the-water idea banned by the mayor, its renovation from a strip club and its ascension as one the best all-ages venues in Albuquerque. But after five years, the venue manager is stepping down.
What’s the best kind of study break you could possibly take? The kind where you get laid. And taking a break in your bed might actually help you in your studying and final-taking efforts. An Arizona State University study showed that women who had regular satisfying sex and were given physical affection showed lower levels of stress and were able to be more positive the next day.
Expressing oneself with words is one thing. Expressing yourself on the drums or guitar is another. Even though Alex Bencoe, the lead guitarist for the band Willy J and the Storytellers, doesn’t sing, he said he has found a way to express himself through his instrument and performing with his band, which releases its first CD on May 7. “We can’t put words to how we feel,” he said.
It’s finals. You’re stressed. We get it. The Daily Lobo wanted to give students a couple ideas for places they can go before or in between finals to relax.
Editor, The campaign for the governor’s office has opened with a barrage of words promising to change or eliminate the “pit rule,” a state rule that requires disposal of toxic drilling wastes in certified landfills rather than burial at the drilling site.

The Scholes Hall elevator has suffered a “catastrophic failure,” Mary Vosevich, director of the Physical Plant, said the wording on the notice plastered throughout the halls of the administrative office building is not meant to be dramatic. “That’s just a term that we use for the elevator that cannot be repaired without procuring some other parts that can’t be bought,” she said.
Publicized surveillance footage was the key to capturing two young men recorded stealing from the New Mexico Court of Appeals on Tuesday.
It wasn’t a chemical reaction that sent the Biomedical Research Facility into flames early Wednesday morning. According to the Albuquerque Fire Department, a generator tested outside the building, north of UNM Hospital, on the ground level started the blaze. Sam Giammo, spokesman for the Health Sciences Center, said the generator had a stack on it designed to carry fumes out over the top of the building. “It appears that something inside that stack ignited,” he said.
No, it’s not just Ray Birmingham’s patented hyperbole. By virtue of its 14-3 league record, and storied, year-to-year dominance, TCU is the team to beat in the Mountain West Conference. Not only that, said the Lobos’ head baseball coach. “They very well could be the team to beat in Omaha,” Birmingham said. First, though, the Lobos will take a crack at unseating the Horned Frogs from their proverbial conference lily pad during Friday’s toe-the-rubber matchup, the first in a three-game series between the two conference foes at Isotopes Park. To be assured of first place in the MWC, the Lobos, 30-15 overall and 12-5 in the MWC, must sweep TCU to take over sole possession of first place.
Playing golf during Minnesota’s bitter-cold winters is a task. Just ask UNM golfer Travis Ross. First, you have to layer with warm clothes.
Since March 14, I have spent my Sundays glued to my 42-inch flat-screen HDTV pretending that I am avoiding Japanese artillery, gunfire, horrendous surroundings and malaria. Well, OK, pretending to be in the horrors of World War II is stretching it a bit.
Editor, I made the point to some of my second-amendment friends that, as a deterrent to federal tyranny, a group of local boys with assault rifles would be no use at all against the invincible technical superiority of American military and law enforcement power.
