Recently, I had the opportunity to talk to Mr. Trae Blanco, band director at Las Cruces High School, about the state of public schooling in Las Cruces. As a fresh-faced 24 year old, Mr. Blanco almost looks like he could blend into the crowds of high school boys and no one would know the difference, [...]

Radon and how to protect yourself and your family from the harmful effects.

This morning, I woke up to a lovely 1/4″ dusting of snow on the ground, which is always a surprise in Las Cruces. It had gotten unusually cold last night, dipping into the low 30’s, which can sometimes be a nice reminder that it is still winter. So many days the temperature stays at a [...]

As I did my weekly peruse of real estate blogs around the nation, I came across one story that really caught my eye. RealtyInIdaho.com recently asked the question, Where are the safest places to live in the United States? The data they used to generate the results came from Bert Sperling, a database expert [...]

Did you know that 28% of traffic incidents, including accidents with fatalities, occur when a driver is using a cell phone? The Washington Post
Last month, Las Cruces became the sixth city in the state of New Mexico to restrict the use of mobile phones while driving, with city council unanimously passing tough punishments and fines [...]

You may remember THIS BLOG in which I talked about bringing Hollywood to New Mexico, where tax incentives and cheap labor costs lure production companies to our expansive state. I have always had a positive stance on show business being in New Mexico, as it has a positive effect on our community economically and socially. [...]

Even with the addition of the Droid, it seems like iPhone users and Blackberry users still manage to pin themselves against each other in a friendly, sometimes heated, debate that Droid [...]

Time Magazine recently wrote up an article about the first commercial space port being built just a few short hours from our city. I think that bringing national - and even international - attention to these remarkable strides in technology towards the final frontier are extremely important when it comes to our local economy and [...]

[...]

As of Thursday of last week, legislation passed extending ‘first time home buyer tax credit’ to May of 2010, and adding a $6,500 tax credit to repeat home buyers if they’ve lived in their current home for five of the past eight years, with a cap on home prices at $800,000. Other stipulations have changed [...]

This past weekend we headed out into the blazing sunshine to enjoy the Whole Enchilada Festival. As always, Las Crucens came out by the hundreds for the parade, the carnival, the shopping, and most importantly, the food. Tent after tent after tent emitted delicious scents, serving up everything from enchiladas to smoked turkey legs to [...]
