Source: Oil reliant New Mexico Hurting As The Price of Oil Drops,Why Not Solar?

New Mexico is reliant on the federal government and energy(oil,gas,minerals).Since oil prices are dropping due to more production the New Mexico State Budget is hurting,Why not get into the solar business!

In Europe many countries utilize solar energy and it has done wonders. If we build a huge solar plant in New Mexico,we could dramatically lower the price of utilities statewide freeing up more money for our economy.If we build a Giant solar plant we could maybe sell energy to other states!No matter what we do we need to find innovative ways to rely on ourselves instead of the federal government and we need to find additional sources of income for our state instead of oil.

Albuquerque, NM– Michelle Aguilar Says that when she went to Court to respond to a lawsuit from a refrigerator repair company that did a bad job, The Judge, Judge Daniel Ramczyk totally disregarded her case, failed to hear her witnesses and disregarded any evidence she may have. Ms. Aguilar did have pictures of shotty work, the repair man attempted to fix some broken Styrofoam with a toothpick. Along with other pictures of a messy job and as well as a contract that wasn’t Signed and the testimony of three contractors that said the work performed was unnecessary or faulty, the judge didn’t hear any of the evidence. Ms.Aguilar feels she has been wronged and wanted to appeal the judgement, but when she went to file an appeal there was no records in the file. Some say we should audio record every hearing as in California, maybe it would make things better for all parties involved. We tried to contact the Judges office but were unable to get interview.

Santa Fe, NM – Legislation that would toughen the punishment for repeat drunk drivers who continue getting in the driver’s seat when their licenses have been revoked or suspended as a result of a DWI conviction was pre-filed today by Rep. Paul Pacheco.

The bill, HB 81, would add a fourth-degree felony to a DWI charge when the offender is charged with a DWI while driving with a license that had already been revoked or suspended for a prior DWI offense.

“It’s not enough to suspend the licenses of repeat DWI offenders,” Pacheco said. “Even with a suspended license offenders are still getting behind the wheel. This bill will protect our families by creating a harsher punishment aimed at keeping offenders off of the roads.”

If passed the bill would also toughen the penalties for those who lend their car to someone with a revoked or suspended license due to DWI.

 DPNM Statement on Gov. Martinez Budget

Albuquerque, NM – Democratic Party of New Mexico executive director Joe Kabourek released the following statement after Gov. Susana Martinez’s release Tuesday of her budget proposal:

“While we appreciate the Governor’s new interest in core Democratic programs like early childhood education, this budget does nothing to address the real issues facing our state: We are last in job creation and first in poverty.

“What’s more, Gov. Martinez has said absolutely nothing about plans to address the rampant corruption and ethics violations that have plagued her Administration. Until we address the culture of corruption in the Martinez Administration, no budget proposal will be able to take us from the being the worst-run state in the country to being the thriving economy that New Mexicans deserve.

“Further, Gov. Martinez’s Administration has made mistake after mistake in dealing with the federal government and that is costing New Mexico taxpayers millions of dollars. Does the Governor’s budget include the $16 million the state owes the federal government for her Administration’s Medicaid errors? Does it include funding to address the alarming gap in special education funding?”

Representative Nate Gentry Pre-Files Legislation to Keep New Mexicans Safer from Violent Repeat Criminals

“Jaydon’s Law” will provide judges with a full picture of defendants’ criminal histories during bonding and sentencing. 

Santa Fe, NM – Today, Representative Nate Gentry pre-filed “Jaydon’s Law,” legislation to ensure judges have access to the full criminal histories of violent offenders.

Current law prohibits judges from considering the juvenile record of an adult offender during bond and sentencing decisions.  Jaydon’s Law would change the Criminal Procedure Act to allow judges to review an adult defendant’s prior record as a youth offender.  It will also give judges access to other information, such as evidence presented during past hearings for youth offenses.

The bill would not apply to juvenile offenses committed prior to the age of 14 or to juvenile delinquent offenses.  It is targeted specifically at older juveniles found guilty of committing serious violent youth offenses such as second degree murder, aggravated battery, and rape.

“Some criminal defendants have committed multiple violent crimes as juveniles.  Currently, judges don’t have access to these records,” said Gentry.  “Jaydon’s law would allow judges to view a defendant’s full violent criminal history when making sentencing and pre-trial release decisions.  Passage of this bill will keep violent repeat offenders off our streets.”

The bill is named for Jaydon Chavez-Silver, an Albuquerque teen who was gunned down during a drive-by shooting while he was attending a house party.  Nicole Chavez, the mother of Jaydon Chavez-Silver, issued the following statement on Gentry’s bill:

“I would like to thank Representative Nate Gentry for pushing positive changes in order to have a safer state to live in.  Jaydon’s Law will give judges a true view of the offenders entire criminal history regarding violent crimes. This bill will allow judges to have the entire picture when making important decisions and help keep violent criminals off of our streets. I will never have Jaydon back, but Jaydon’s Law helps leave a great legacy behind regarding positive changes to the State of New Mexico in his name.”

With so much bad press the police get sometimes and even people saying New Mexico Is the “Land of Entrapment” I must say There are good cops out there,I’ve seen them with my own eyes,these types of cops will use there power to either smash you in very badly if your an evil doer,or they will use their power to work with you if you are trying to do good.With all the bad media and negativity against officers,I saw them help out a man today and it was pretty remarkable,so be positive when you see an officer and give them a salute,cause you never know you could be talking to one of God’s angels.I like to just say that the two officers I saw today let that guy go are truley the duke cities best of the best,stay safe,and we are all with you!.

There’s a new church opening up on Albuquerque’s Westside, MOSAIC! This church seems to be one of the best churches around, its seems to have a very good worship plan/system, not just going to church but being a part of the church, which seems to make a lot more sense. I’m glad the Duke City has Mosaic,I’m going to stop by one day,and I wish them the very best!

With an innate interest in New Mexico’s culture and its history surrounding Native Americans, Santa Fe artist Ralph Roybal began his career as an apprentice in some of the leading bronze foundries of the southwest. Beginning in his early twenties, it was at Santa Fe Bronze where, under the guidance of famous sculptor Ernest Berke, Ralph began to realize his potential in bronze work. Over the years, Ralph perfected his craft with an acute sense of detail and careful study and focus on the essence of natural patina though the use of polychrome. Much of his subject matter, based on influential 19th century North American Native tribes and tribal leaders, depicts notable figures like Geronimo, Black Hawk, Sitting Bull, and Crazy horse, to name a few, and has been exhibited in galleries from Denver to Houston, Scottsdale to Taos, and Santa Fe to Albuquerque. His well known works have also won many first place awards in various Fine Art exhibitions and shows, and can be found in the Permanent Collection of the Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Ralph’s studio, located in Rio Rancho, NM, allows him to personally create and complete all but the casting of his works. After detailing and applying the patinas, each bronze is signed, numbered and marked with his copyright. In July of 2010, his artwork was honored with a first-place award in the prestigious Contemporary Spanish Market held annually in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Ralph’s Fine Art bronzes can be found in private collections throughout North America and worldwide.
