Letter to the Editor: PERA fiduciary duties

Madame G guide to the stars Week of JULY 22
The Sun is in Cancer. The shy crab is an intelligent creature that carries its home and armor on its back. This makes an interesting pairing with Mercury in Leo. Our ideas will become grander with a little focus on the details. Madame G recommends digging-deep and exploring all possibilities. Don’t limit yourself! You can always figure out the logistics later.

N.M. senators announce award to Navajo Agricultural Products Industry
$150,000 for irrigation improvementU.S. Senators Tom Udall and Martin Heinrich announced July 8, that the Navajo Agricultural Products Industry, located in Farmington, was awarded $150,000 in funding from the U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation’s WaterSMART Program for its Irrigation Scheduling Improvement Project.

Letter to the Editor: Nuclear waste remains active concern in McKinley County
Editor,
If Holtec International has its way, high-level radioactive waste (“spent fuel”) from Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant in New York and almost 100 other reactor sites in the U.S. would be transported on America’s highways and brought to southern New Mexico for “interim storage” although in my own view, this is a false narrative that is countered by the example of the Yucca Mountain repository and the site(s) will be permanent.
Permanent because the spent fuel will have to be moved again if another repository site is found. The Yucca Mountain project began in 1982 after the passage of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act that requires “the establishment of a deep geologic...

Everything changes. This is a beautiful tragedy and a blessing. On July 16, we will experience a Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn. Prepare to let go of old patterns that no longer serve. Madame G recommends you trust the process and journal about your experience. Not a writer? Try a video diary instead. Remember, you don’t have to post it online. It can be just for you.
