Any plans to either fix this page so it reports current data or delete it?

Ill check status for this, thanks for the headsup...

What has happened to reporting Eldorado's weather conditions?

We had hardware problems, and fixing them was designated a lower priority than some other projects. Sorry for the gap!

I'd like to know about freelance writing for any of the various versions of the New Mexican. I'd like to know who to write to. --Ann Garrison, anngarrison@comcast.net

it should be noted that the New Mexican is a lib. rag news and the editor (owner) is no more than a rich leftover hippie from the 70's

It's great to see Wes Smalling's column again, even if only online. I always enjoyed reading him when I lived in Santa Fe, even though I am by no stretch of the imagination an outdoors person. I have always enjoyed his column because it is well-written, fun and interesting. Thanks for bringing him back.

Now we see that Red Buttons has died at 87, Going fast, Wonder who # 3 will be? Me?

Incidentally, I notice on this spot there is a long comment I made on August 11th, 2005. After re-reading this, I ask myself----has anything changed?

Also notice that I mentioned pink tags before Florida did. People said I just made this up. Well, here was the spot, and there were several others besides.

Dear Readers:

I was looking for a site that said Miscellaneous Digressions and couldn't find it, so I'll use this spot.

From a very early age I have heard that you can’t judge a book by its’ cover. In the ensuing years, I have found that very often you can. If a book cover depicts a sleazy situation that will probably be what the book is about. This same book however can be effectively written to edify if that’s the right word, those who want to read sleaze.

This is true in politics too. When George Bush ran for governor of Texas we already had a good governor by the name of Ann Richards. She worked hard for the state. As a part on his campaign, Bush and his backers depicted her as sleazy because of her past personal history. Ann Richards did get elected and afterwards did her job. She worked hard and tirelessly at it.

There did not appear to be any reason to replace her with George Bush from a technical point of view.

Nevertheless, Bush got elected and the rest is history.

Now comes Bush promising to be a compassionate republican. He consorts with the people that run Jones University, he caters to the prejudices of the south, and gets Gore defined as a cardboard character, whatever that is.

After being elected in November, the economy starts to go bad. At least that is the republican spin. Over priced technical stocks fell, over hyped technical companies did not live up to their promise, etc. and some good companies fell victim to this as well. The republicans adroitly capitalized on vague arguments that Bill Clinton of all people was directly responsible for this. Then it was those that voted for Clinton, then it was any one that disagreed with Bush or other republicans. Finally it is everyone that has different economic backgrounds, different religions or faiths, different sexual preferences, different opinions about war, retribution, honor, valor, responsibility, etc., in sort anyone that did not express outright adulation of sleaze.

I voted against George Bush senior, because as a republican delegate or more precisely alternate delegate, I saw first hand the propaganda spread by the Pat Robertson forces. I was aware of the compromises made to aggrandize these religious ideals by the mainstream party.

When elected we had a Bush that for 4 years did virtually nothing in office, which was ok with me most of the time. The more government stays out of our lives the better, (within reason). Then he says: “Read my lips, no new taxes”. Politically speaking, I thought at the time this was a foolish thing for anyone to say, especially a republican. He didn’t need to say anything.

Then he engages us in a costly, although effective, campaign to free Kuwait. Our armed forces successfully accomplished their mission. Namely to free Kuwait. While this was going on, there was every reason for the Iraqi to expect that they too might be freed from the clutches of Saddam Hussein. And, like the Hungarians, twice and Romanians, not to mention the South Vietnamese, peoples of these countries got the impression that when we said we wanted these people to be free, we meant it, and back them up.

In the case of the eastern European countries wanting freedom from the USSR, we were total paper tigers. We went to war with North Korea and quit it with an armistice. When the French failed in their efforts to regain control of Vietnam after the war with Japan because it was too costly for them, we took up the banner of the imperialist French and continued this war, but we changed the name from decolonization to something called defending against communist. This name change fooled nobody, nor did it result in a victory for us.

Now we have the specter of Palestinians, Israelis, Syria, Lebanon; a-bomb prospects from Iran, and our unfinished enemies in North Korea, Pakistan. Terrorist are killing people in Egypt, England, France, Spain, Malaysia, the Philippines; unresolved problems with Chili, Mexico, Cuba, Columbia and Venezuela, hate crimes in the Netherlands and Germany.

Terrorists are everywhere. Our interest are besieged from all directions and in all matters. Yet after almost four years, we have done little if anything effective to secure our long borders on the north and south. We allow uncheck ships to enter our ports and waterways. Drug smugglers can still fly their planes in and out of the country. They could easily smuggle other things.

We are now engage in a war in Iraq. Bush declared victory there a few months after it started from an aircraft carrier I believe it was. Who was it that said: “More such victories, and we will be done for”.

History is a dry subject. And it is no wonder. For tests we are told to remember when the Treaty of Versailles was signed, (maybe even where). We read something about the 100 years war, but not how long it was, (surprise?) Who remembers what this war was about?

We learn juicy tidbits about the Romans, become fascinated with their fighting prowess. But how did the average roman live? Where did he get his food? How did he pay the rent? What were the legal grounds for this or that. Were there municipal courts? Sanitation laws? Traffic regulations? Who was Sula and what did he do and why? What did Sardinia have to do with anything, and how did this come about?

We read and imagine the horrors of an atomic war. What is our solution? We hunt for more exotic ways to kill people. We blame this or that side for not understanding each other.

When we discuss issues we go far a stream. If some of us wonder what George Bush is doing in Iraq, if we question some aspect of that war, if some of us have doubts about the end results of it, or the management of it; if any of us suspect that any part of that war doesn’t seem to be quite just right, etc. For answers we are given statistics about the economy under Clinton. We become unpatriotics that don’t support our troops, we are fuzzy headed do-nothings that can’t make a living and get ahead, etc. New lines of put-downs of inquiring minds are invented daily. In the end, we never get a straight answer.

The effects of our economy become measured by the behavior of interior decorators in colleges. We become like the 3 blind men, each of which feel a different part of the elephant and tell us in no uncertain terms exactly what an elephant is. We invent something called “Intelligent Design”, which for all I know may be true. But we don’t stop there. We somehow feel we must revise our morals to fit in with this new theory. I say theory, because it hasn’t been proven. Those who persecuted the likes of Galileo and his compatriots also believed in Intelligent Design, as they perceived it from principles they have added to the bible, logical as they may be. They merely had a different name for it.

This may be a bit trite, but most of the arguments for or against things have been going on for centuries if not eons. People are still arguing and trying to resolve problems now that were problems when I was 13. Many are quite vocal, others are meek, we have elections to solve them and in the end do not solve them. We curse and call people names. Some use eloquent carefully defined arguments, which for all their care fall on deaf ears.

Most of these problems will be with us long after I am gone. They will not be solved until humans learn to deal with causes instead of just the issue at hand. These solutions will come from understanding, not belligerency.

There is no way to ignore specific problems on this SFNM site. Given its format, there is probably no way to solve them either. Most of us have come to think in terms of sound bytes, short pithy statements intended to replace volumes. Often such mean different things to different people, sometimes, even on how one feels at the exact moment when read. And, being short often leave out much to be desired.

We have on the one hand, a man such as Mr. Worth who comes on the site sounding much like a Mafia Don. When we respond to the image he presented of himself, he responds with a variety of reasons why what we see is not what we got or the other way around and it is of course our fault we didn’t understand what he didn’t say. He proceeds to then redefine this image as something else quite holy. Later he mixes things up and becomes a holy terror. We are accused of using situation ethics by a situation ethicist.

On another front, several have wondered why Bush hasn’t made his daughters go and fight in Iraq. I can understand where this sentiment comes from, but not the application of it. Logically, one wouldn’t expect Bush to put his own children in harms way. On the other hand, I don’t know how he could do it if he wanted to. It’s a free country. The daughters are two free individuals. If by some magic Bush could force them into the military and into Iraq, what would this prove other than that he had unimaginable power, and if this were the case, perhaps we should all keep perfectly quiet.

Most conservatives, liberals, democrats, and republicans have different opinions on something. I have been just as guilty as anyone else in assigning cookie cutter values to these groups at times. Part of this stems from a perception being advanced by conservatives that all liberals are bad because they are liberals. I feel the same way about conservatives. Much of what conservatives say is not bad but seems bad because they say it. If they equate liberals with communist, then it is obvious that conservatives are Nazis. In most cases neither position is true. To me a liberal is a person who reads or listens carefully to an argument, considers all facets of it, pro and con, looks to see if there is not something better, or if there is a fatal flaw in it, and perhaps then agrees or disagrees with the argument. To me a conservative is one who hears a cleaver phrase, stops there, and falls all over himself trying to be a “me too”. He is a person that will adopt any half-baked idea that the truly ignorant can invent. Is this fair? Surely not. As rational beings (homo sapiens) we all have brains. All I ask is that we use them rationally.

History tells me that we would be better off not trying to rule the world. I do not agree with Wendell Wilkes’s one-world government ideas. I think every government should be responsive to their citizens. If these citizens are tantamount to savage beast, then steps need to be taken to tame them. In this case I think the steps should not be taken only by one nation but in cooperation with a vast majority. If we can send 100,000 soldiers to save the world from terrorist in Iraq, then the other nations should be able to send a total of 5 million or so. Where is India and China? Economically, if we are to do it alone the only feasible thing, seems to me is to just wipe them out lock, stock and barrel as soon as possible, and I am talking days, not years. I don’t advocate this, I only think that it makes more sense than draining our economy, killing our soldiers, and a host of other things, that in the end come to nothing.

With respect to drunk drivers, much of what can be done about this is contingent upon what is actually do-able. Pink cars may not be actually do-able. The state of New Mexico has been grappling with this problem longer than most of us have been alive. Obviously ineffectively. If we keep doing the same thing, only more so, we will likely keep getting the same results. Most people who drink and drive do not have accidents. Punishing these people in advance will not stop those who do. Pink license plates may not stop drunken driving either, but it will highlight to the rest of us how serious the problem is. If half the people in the state have pink tags, this awareness will most likely bring results. I still think most people would do most anything to avoid having one. Those that get these tags will be those that indeed need watching. Additional laws can be written governing where pink tags can go. They can be banned from school areas, churches, grocery stores etc. If this causes a hardship, then avoid getting them.

Pink tags can alert authorities to stop speeders. If you like to speed, don’t get a pink tag. All kinds of laws can be enacted to harass those with pink tags. Such cars can be observed in places where drinking takes place. If you like to go to bars after work, be sure you don’t drink so much that you end up with a pink tag.

In addition to pink tags, we could have pink drivers licenses. Would you be proud to display a pink DL every time you try to cash a check? Would you enjoy presenting one to a hotel to get a room? Laws could be enacted making everyone regardless of age present a valid DL to buy alcohol, and also banning those with pink DL from buying, or being served in a bar. If a person with a pink DL and Tag causes personal or property damage, the penalties can be multiplied. The person who sold it to him can be tracked down and penalized as well.

Pink tags and DL’s may sound as liberal as hell, but I think the idea deserves more exploring. Why, pink tags could also be embedded with chips so the police know where the car is at all times, with information not only of where but who. Don’t like government spying on everything you do? Don’t get a pink tag.

I’m not a great believer in the theory of accidents being an excuse for criminal behavior. If you run a red light and cause an “accident” it is no accident. If you use a cell phone or listen to a boom box and run into someone because you were diverted from being the best driver you can be, that is no accident. I do not remember the exact wording, but seems to me that to get a NM. DL you need to pass a test that covers all this. Somewhere in the little booklet there is a sentence that says you are responsible for your vehicle and driving at all times. If you pass a driving test then forget everything later, that is no accident.

Now, have I left anybody out?

This can all be summarized by simply saying: Correctly identify the problem, then take the steps to correct them. This is in FM-something or another, (a military manual). The operative word is “correctly”. The solution is in steps, not a lunge off a cliff.

Yeah, where are those? I purposely stayed quiet to be one of the last few!!

Web Ed, where are the blabber-mouth tallies? And how do we get to past ones in order to look at pictures of the posters on these boards?

Web Ed, I've been off-line since last week, and I now can't find any of the articles I had posted in. Also I had to resubmit my registration. Did something happen? Where can I find last weeks news articles? thanks.

Hi Deb, did you do a search by commenter?

Please tell me how to find the "Rogues Gallary" of recent commentators.

I am finding it very difficult to get to yesterday's sunday 23 jan 2005 paper. Any tips on how to do this? This site is extremely hard to navigate. I only hope this comment is taken into consideration along with the numerous other comments I am looking at now!

This new web site sucks!

I have been searching the archives for an article written on 10/30 or 31/o4 by Bob Quick re: Charles W. Robinson and I have gotten no help from your chaotic website. HELP!!!

Ive searched through three archive databases and nothing is coming up. Can you confirm or add any other additional info, such as name of business, subject, etc?

Hi Greg.

I get the same response. Looking for a correction soon!

When trying to find previous post using your search feature I get the following, for months now. Is it me, or does this feature just not work anymore?

re: Social Security and Medicaid



Dear Heather Wilson,



Congratulations on rejecting the President’s duplicitous plan for “privatizing” Social Security. In the past, I have been sorry to see that you slavishly follow the Republican Party line, apparently without regard for whether following the party line benefits your constituents in New Mexico in any way. Now I am happy to see that the interest of your constituents (and your desire to be reelected) has persuaded you not to support a plan that would require additional trillions of dollars of debt, while reducing the guaranteed Social Security benefit and quite possibly leaving people much worse off than they are now. Even if private accounts were successful, they would do nothing to solve the funding problem that all sides recognize Social Security is going to have.



Please continue to protect the interest of New Mexicans by opposing President Bush’s privatization plan and working for responsible reform of Social Security funding, preferably by removing the $90,000 cap on income subject to Social Security taxes – or by reversing the Bush tax cuts and using some of that money to assure the future of Social Security.



I hope you will also recognize that President Bush’s proposed cuts to Medicaid, and his suggestion to replace federal Medicaid funding with block grants, would injure New Mexicans even more than the citizens of most other states. A very high percent of New Mexicans receive Medicaid, and a substantial number of those who do not receive Medicaid cannot afford health insurance. Cuts in Medicaid will ultimately result in the people of our state becoming poorer and sicker. No responsible representative of our people could favor such a plan.



Very truly yours,



Marcia Lincoln

Web ed, I hear there is a bomb threat situation at SFHS?

I was looking for an article in yesterday's paper ("CSF theater leader ..." in the Santa Fe / El Norte section, and could not find it. Could you let me know where it is? Also, could you put a direct link to starting and stopping the paper for vacation on your opening page?

Jack Stafurik

Just a suggestion: Is there any way to code the web page so that it fits the monitor regardless of resolution settings? Web Ed, I concede; the ads are necessary, but the black and white lines on the right are eating up valuable real estate on my monitor.

Also, why not return the website's look to the old free newmexican?

web.ed.: we're planning on some modifications to the design sometime in the first quarter of2005 - and the width issue is one Michael and i would like to adress. Stay tuned!

WebEds.-Why have none of the classifieds been updated since Saturday, 12/25?

weve been looking into that - it all looks good on this end, so we're checking with the systems vendor and hope to have this solved very shortly. I apologize for any inconvenience.

Dear Web Ed: Is there a place around the plaza that I can log in and read the New Mexican? If so, will I be able to comment? Or will do I have to register when using another computer? Thanks.

Is there anyway our comments could be added quicker? It's hard to communicate when it takes an hour or more for our comments to be added to the blog. Thanks for your consideration of this matter. Dianne

web ed: were thinking of appointing some regulars to help with the approval porcess - there are only two of us who approve comments as it stands, in additon to all our other duties on the site. i apologize for the slow down on weekends/evenings, but even we need to get away for a bit, lol. Ill keep you posted on our plans - and let me know if youre interested in volunteering!

Hey! You changed your website URL (from 'SF' to 'SantaFe')! It took me a couple days to find out why the old url didn't work. When you moved, you should have left a note on the old door to tell us where you were!

I haven't been to the site in a while. But I must say, my goodness you are trying too hard. Too many bells, whistles, flashing animations, Javascripts, logins, two or maybe three different sites -- freenewmexican, enewmexican, and santafenewmexican -- it gets confusing. What's next... eeeeee, new mexican!!??

Why not simplify. Save a few bucks and do less of the fancy pants stuff. What we readers want is just the text, with the occasional photo that can be clicked on to view a BIG version (no, 2x3 inches on my screen is not BIG). We have no use for logins or passwords.

Need to make money? Two words: contextual advertising. Look at Google's AdSense, or Senopy. Good luck.

Your 'enewmexican' site is not ready for prime time. Here is a verbatim segment of text as it is shown when you click on a story. As you can see, the sentences are sliced into pieces and then re-mixed in a way that makes it hard to figure out the original meaning:

I would like to suggest that the New Mexican start publishing notice and agendas of city council meetings as regularly as it publishes the results of the meetings. I would have liked to attend the meeting regarding the pet ordinance, but didn't remember to call to see if this issue was on the agenda. The paper would be doing a great public service by circulating this information. Thank you.

I am a new subscriber to your newsletter. I live in Florida and find a daily link back to my home state helps to keep me informed. But your daily message always arrives with an error.

How may I send in an article I have written for consideration in the paper?

I hope that President Aragon realizes that the big problems started at NMHU when the university tried to operate branch campuses. It may be hard to resist those professionals who want to get their MBA, but NMHU needs to make sure that their core operation, higher education for the young adults of Northern New Mexico, is healthy first.

Great news! A great leader for a great institution. Here's wishing Senator Aragon and NMHU nothing but the best!

Chuck Montano

The NMHU Regents did a great disservice to the University and to the Community. This is the result of you national search? Hell, Pete Campos, Las Vegas's terrific State Senator was way more qualified. You can't spin the politics, lies, and the deceit that played into this decision. Bad choice.

Makes me laugh when the holier than thou start spewing their philosophy, when sitting as rector of St Francis and under the nose of the archbishop is gerome alire-martinez, Mr. Fag himself. The nerve to rub it in all your faces during the recent fiesta parade when he wore pink tennis shoes as his gay and lesbian statement and then went to party in albuquerque at the local gay bar. How dare the church give directions when she herself is lost. Mateo

We need to get clear on when life starts. It can't start at conception, if a fertilized egg does not attach to the womb, there will be no child.

For a pro-life person like myself, I believe that once the egg attaches to the womb, life begins. We should let nature take its course, in my opinion. I do not have a problem with people trying to prevent this attachment, however.

Using my definition of when life starts, just because you have eggs and sperm cells combining in a laboratory you did not conceive a child. If that fertilized egg will never get to a womb to attach, it will never have the chance to become a person. Those cells can still be put to a very good use, if they are used to help cure the illnesses of those fertilized eggs that were lucky enough to have attached to a womb and were born.

In Mr. Sanchez’s defense, he seems to have recognized the sincerity of my argument, as I realize the sincerity of his, and answered me with a serious effort to make himself clear. I would ask no more of anyone.

Mr. Tincher,

Simply, Mr. Sanchez does not get it. Save your breath.

Michael Tincher,



What we are talking about here are the sacraments of the church given to us by Christ Himself! The sacraments are the treasuries of the Church and must be protected even if at the threat of death. The church does not dish out sacraments as if they were political leaflets and let them land were ever may be, they are sacred and holy and must not be defiled. Most Christian religions do not believe in most of the sacraments given to the Catholic Church, especially the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist. Why I don’t know when Jesus made it clear at the ‘Last Supper.’ [Matthew 26: 26-30; Mark 14: 22-26; 1 Corinthians 11: 23-25] The issue here is Political Catholic leaders who decided to prioritize power and fame over the teachings of Jesus Christ which applies to all no matter what status or form of government one may be involve in! No one can escape from it! That is what is disturbing!

Mr. Sanchez: So, if I understand correctly, in order to be part of acceptable humanity one must believe without question what you do. If not, then one is “undeserving of comment.” What then is one deserving of? What then are the over 5.8 billion people on the earth who do not believe as you deserving of? Must they be converted for their humanity to be acceptable and their rights to be unalienable?

The questions I asked were serious. They are real questions about real events in the lives of every person. Not having a responsible answer to a question is not the same as the question being trivial.

You proselytize a narrow theocratic governance at variance with almost all that has been successful in this nation. A refusal to confront relevant objections to your religion is your own business, but refusal to confront such objections to your political position is unacceptable and disqualifies you as an advocate.

You may not hide in the womb of your religion and run sneak attacks on the full field of political play expecting to be given a pass. Ultimately, you will then be required to defend not only your politics, but your religion as well. Dragging religion into the political world will sully it while not improving politics at all, actually damaging it as well.

As difficult as it may be when one believes so strongly, it is essential to give others in the world room for their views and values.

Michael Tinchier, your comment doesn't deserve a reponse.

Anna Garcia Futrell, Check out the following:

1 Corinthian 11: 24-30

To receive the body and blood of Jesus, we *MUST be in the State of Grace.



24. and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me."

25. In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me."

26. For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

27. Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord.

28. Let a man examine himself, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup.

29. For any one who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment upon himself.

29.That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died.

Any other comments?

Mr Ozda,

Sheila is my mother. The difference is that for my Santa Fe family in particular, your paper and obituary section (Death Notices is so impersonal...just opinion) wove a sense of family for those of us serving in the military and living far and away. As a military member serving away from Santa Fe for over 19 years now and soon to be in Iraq, your paper and this section gave me a unique insight into my sister's life that I would, sadly and I'm embarrassed to say, would never have had. I loved reading the postings her friends and family wrote when she died so suddenly. With few exceptions, I've been able to sign onto your site and feel at "home" in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Oman, Saudi, Kuwait, Norway, Italy, Spain, Africa not to mention too several different US states. The information is current and vital to me as a native, a family member and a military member. If I could afford a hard copy subscription I still wouldn't get this information until I returned home sometimes up to six months later. Please, this site does impact Santa Feans more than you could imagine. Please consider bringing back full, free obituaries. Thank you.

The Web Publisher replies:

Sheila: We have always charged people to read the newspaper (on paper), with the obituaries in it. What's the difference now?

Michael modza@sfnewmexican.com

By SHEILA GARCIA

Question?? Don't you charge the family of the deceased to publish the funeral information.....isn't this like "double taxation" tactics??? They put in the funeral info to inform family/friends times/places for services for the deceased. What good are your "death notices" serving now??

all you do is print stuff from other states like new york maybe you should ore on santa fe and new mexico, like more on death notes

Come on - I would think that you make a fair amount of bucks on sales and advertisment. The obituraries should be a community service and names of survivors and date of services should be included - not just names. Are profits so important that community matters little? It is the community that keeps your newspaper in business.

It really upsets me that you only list the name of the deceased. Unless you are a family member or a very very close family friend you may not recognize the name of the deceased. Plus, if you don't know when the services are, you cannot attend them. Or, if you know a family member but not the deceased how can you send condolences. Please reconsider entering the entire obituary. Thank you
