We’ve all seen our fair share of post-apocalyptic movies and television shows where the world goes to chaos and life as we know it ends for one reason or another, whether by zombies, war or a massive meteor. A lot of people seem to enjoy these stories, probably because they focus on the fight to survive and overcome circumstances where something or someone is always threatening the existence of you and your loved ones. link Alisa Boswell Possibly the most believable p...

Of all the things you have ever worried about, tell me something good that came about a result of your worrying. I don’t like to worry. It disturbs my peace. It makes me nervous. It makes me feel bad. What is worry? I define it as “rehearsing calamity,” a meditating on the worse thing that can happen. It brings anxiety and makes every thing uneasy. It disturbs, harasses and annoys. How long could one feel this way and still have good health? Worry causes a multitude of illnesses and disease. Instead of “cardiac thrombo...
PNT senior writer [email protected] A New Mexico Department of Health official labeled a nationwide salmonella outbreak connected to a Portales hatchery in August a “case closed.” The department’s Public Information Officer David Morgan said Privett Hatchery, which supplies baby chicks and other live baby poultry, has corrected the issues that linked a strain of salmonella that infected more than 300 people in 37 states to a duck pen at its hatchery. “The hatchery has taken the steps necessary to make sure it doesn’t...

PNT senior writer [email protected] Eastern New Mexico University students will no longer have to be referred to Roosevelt General Hospital for medical needs that can’t be taken care of at the school’s clinic as officials finalized a deal to contract medical services from La Casa Family Health Center. link CHRISTINA CALLOWAY: PNT photo Kristine Olivas checks her weight in an exam room at ENMU’s clinic.

The U.S. House of Representatives is considering a standalone bill that would cut about $4 billion annually from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. The U.S. Senate in June passed a farm bill that would trim SNAP by about $400 million. So it would appear both chambers believe the food stamp program is ready for some trimming after five years of tremendous growth. And while there is a big difference in proposed spending cuts that the House and Senate will have to work out politically, there are some proposed...
Clovis’ recent anti-property rights ordinance — disguised as a pest-control measure — should hammer the point home that there is no such thing as “conservative” or “liberal.” Many of those advocating for this ordinance call themselves conservatives. But there are only those who hunger to control others and take their property, and those who have no such compulsion. You might be shocked to learn I would oppose any “law” that forbade property owners from eliminating prairie dogs on their own land just as passionately as I...
CMI staff Texas A&M International’s Camilo Botero scored in the 80th minute to give the Dustdevils a 2-2 tie against Eastern New Mexico University in a men’s soccer match called in the 84th minute due to darkness at the ENMU pitch. The teams had lightning delay lasting nearly two hours, which pushed back the scheduled 4 p.m. start. The Greyhounds (2-3-1) erased a 1-0 halftime deficit and had just gone in front on senior midfielder Kal Herbert’s free-kick goal from about 25 yards out in the 78th minute before Botero tied...
CMI staff Eastern New Mexico University football coach Josh Lynn has little idea of what to expect when the Greyhounds face the Air Force junior varsity in a 2 p.m. contest today in Colorado Springs, Colo. To get a feel for what his team might see, he said he’s watched tapes of the Falcons’ varsity squad. While coaching at New Mexico Military Institute at Roswell, Lynn’s teams played both AFA sub-varsity programs — the junior varsity and Air Force Prep. “I’m just trying to get a feel for what they’re doing offensively a...
CMI sports writer [email protected] After struggling mightily last season, the Portales and Raton football teams appear to be on the rebound. Each has already exceeded modest win totals from 2012 as they head into today’s 7 p.m. matchup at Blackwater Draw. “They’re playing real well right now,” Tigers coach Brock Walton said of the Rams. “Hopefully, we can give them a run for their money.” The Tigers, 1-8 last year, won their first two games over Tucumcari and Trinidad, Colo., before running into a buzzsaw last Friday...
