• Born Poor?

    Samuel Bowles heads the Behavioral Sciences Program at the Santa Fe Institute, which is home to dozens of big brains imported from all over the world. If he’s right, troubling job numbers are only the start of New Mexico’s problems. It's time to completely rethink economic development.

  • Kodak Moments

    The new show at Verve Gallery of Photography is billed as a “three-person exhibition of documentary photography.” By my count, there are three persons and there is photography. I must be missing the documentary part.

  • Outliers

    A genuine sense of urbanity in Santa Fe isn’t found in museums or galleries. It isn’t found in capital city politics or at the opera or among top-ranked restaurants. It’s on the side of the road, in junky trucks, churning out chili dogs.

  • Deny & Delay

    Ten years ago, New Mexico State Police Officer Marvyn Jaramillo was pulled over by a Santa Fe County sheriff’s deputy for speeding. He flunked a sobriety test. His loaded shotgun lay behind his seat. The high rates of domestic violence by first responders is well-documented, if somewhat taboo

  • Pop Quiz

    On March 2, Santa Fe voters will vote for one city councilor in each of the city’s four districts. Here, the candidates for a hotly contested District 1 seat engage in a battle of city smarts in SFR’s Pop Quiz.  Extra questions online!

  • Greg Glazner Reading

    Greg Glazner gives a reading in preparation for the release of Zeno’s Cure, a cross-genre novel that he’s been working on for a number of years. Combining poetry, fiction, stream-of-consciousness and various experimental writing styles, Zeno’s Cure runs in a new direction for Glazner, whose poetry, until now, has been largely linear and narrative.

Lifetime Original

That vaguely hypocritical contradiction inherent in the public release of The Private Lives of Pippa Lee seems appropriate for the self-discovering and coyly self-revealing protagonist of writer-director Rebecca Miller’s adaptation of her own novel. From a few different angles, Miller shows us how settling down and settling in are just other ways of becoming unsettled.

Daddy Needs a Drink

I felt a calm feeling wash over me. I had nowhere to be, no students to win over for books void of sensational plots, no DSL hassles at home (damn you, Qwest!), no extended family members’ birthdays to remember (damn you, nieces and nephews!).

Zane's World

Like the state of New Mexico, I bank at Bank of America. I don’t know what the government’s excuse is, but I got fed up with faceless bureaucracy a long time ago and switched to a local bank. But then it was bought by a bigger bank which, in turn, was purchased by Bank of America. If I switch again, what's my guarantee? What's the state's guarantee?

Aqua Santa
There are two kinds of going out to eat in the United States: There is the casual, fast, obesity-epidemic eating that makes us ugly Americans and then there is the earnest cuisine born from a melange of Old World know-how and New World optimism that makes us the envy of the globe. Fortunately, Brian Knox, chef and owner of Aqua Santa, is a specialist in the latter.
