Sunny, with a high of 94 and low of 63 degrees. Sunny in the morning, clear overnight.
He has a store in Alamogordo, but is based in Artesia. Kinda like calling Walmart a local business.
If you look up Peco's Valley Pizza, dba as Domino's Pizza you'll find he has had multiple lawsuits against him and his company, more than one of which were for unpaid wages, among other things.
Mr. Baake,
several students placed in the top five statewide and nine in the top three
And that out of what appears to be a class of 7.
Gotta love the new math.
Are we over reacting to these measles outbreaks?
From the headlines and stories you'd think measles were as deadly as Anthrax.
Before the 1970's, getting the measles was just part of growing up, and for the most part was treated with the same urgency as a cold or skinned knee.
"if we can prevent a disease, why not take those preventative measures?" well said.
in this day and age, anyone who imagines that there is any non-partisan election anywhere in this nation - from president to dog catcher - is living in a fairyland. as noted herein, disputes between city & county are exhibit #1 to show the concept is a sham.
I agree with the first part of Mr. Mitchell's statement, there's no such thing as a totally non-partisan elected official.
But I don't agree that disagreements between city & county are proof of concept.
for perhaps a better perspective - let's zoom in a little closer....can you tell me that there is never discord between the majority republican alamogordo city officials and the democratic controlled state government. more specifically, can you say that and keep a straight face?
May officer Ontiveros rest in peace.
If there's a ****, I hope the devil is enjoying a slow roasted bbq of Dennis Armenta, the scum bag who shot officer Ontiveros multiple times.
From the Durango Herald;
My sincere condolences to the family, friends, and coworkers of Officer Ontiveros.
as i stated a couple days ago - government by people who couldn't find their fanny with a flashlight and a mirror.
Removing the list from the website doesn't mean the list has been deleted.
I would think that counties and sheriff's offices alike would want the list to remain public.
