New Mexico Lottery warns of bogus euro prize email scam
Attorney General Patricia Madrid and New Mexico Lottery officials warn of an email claiming a random global draw won EUR1,000,000. The message origin appears from Switzerland with Melbourne Australia details, but officials stress no global random draws exist and prizes are claimed only by presenting a valid ticket in New Mexico.

Editorial on enduring hate crimes and civil rights gaps
The piece notes 40th anniversaries of the Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act while FBI data show hate crimes persist, with 2003 figures dominated by intimidation and property crimes. It argues stronger federal hate crime laws and better reporting, cites under-reporting fears by the Southern Poverty Law Center, and condemns a 1999 Alabama constitutional vote preserving segregation language as anti democratic.
