Explosion ends eight day gas well fire in Lovington
An oil field crew detonated 150 pounds of dynamite to extinguish a gas well fire that burned eight days. The well was capped with no injuries, and officials say it is under total control. The blast aimed to remove oxygen feeding the flames, allowing crews to cap the high-pressure well after two weeks of efforts and a damaged pipe.

FOG sues UNM again over president search
Open-government group NMFOG petitions state district court to enforce a 1991 consent decree requiring UNM to disclose names of interviewed UNM president applicants. The suit alleges the regents and search committee skirted the order by looping questions to one regent. The Hispanic Round Table accuses UNM of bypassing qualified Hispanic candidates and notes the regents may have chosen from three finalists including Provost William Gordon.
