Salome’s Stars
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) The high standards you set for yourself don’t always translate into the behavior you expect from others. A relationship problem can be resolved if you’re more flexible and less judgmental.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Not enough party bids to satisfy the Bovine’s fun-loving side this week? Go ahead and throw one of your own. Then prepare for some serious work coming up early next week.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A new and intensely productive cycle kicks in on the 30th. Be careful not to get too stressed out, though. Make time to restore your energy by relaxing with family and friends.

The Secret Service is a national embarrassment
If this is what the Secret Service has become, it’s a wonder that something worse than Butler, P.A., hasn’t
already happened. That event was terrible enough, with one rally-goer killed and Donald Trump coming within an inch of losing his life. If Trump hadn’t turned his head at the right moment, Butler would have become one of the most notorious locations in American history and we’d be living in a different world.
At the time, the Secret Service’s failure seemed unfathomable, and none of the revelations since — set out in a report by the Senate Homeland Security Committee — make it any better. Barney Fife was better organized and more accountable.

We need an all-hands-on-deck approach to tackle this epidemic with the urgency it demands, which includes eliminating barriers that providers and patients face in...
Letter to the Editor: We need a healthcare system that values patients over profits
Dear Editor,
As a mother whose first-born daughter lives with a severe brain injury due to medical negligence, I’ve seen firsthand the immense costs of lifelong medical care. In 2013, my daughter suffered brain damage during her delivery because a hospital’s medication protocols were not followed. Thanks to the justice my family received, we’ve been able to afford the extensive, and expensive care she requires daily, for the rest of her life. But not every family is so fortunate. That’s why I can’t stand reading what’s been published blaming patients and their attorneys for driving healthcare providers out of New Mexico.
In fact, New Mexico’s Legislative Finance...
