Cinema Cindy Reviews: Fly Me To The Moon
By CYNTHIA BIDDLECOMB
Los Alamos
“Fly Me to the Moon” opened July 11 across the nation featuring Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum. Based loosely on the Apollo XI moon landing July 20, 1969, this highly entertaining movie riffs off an old conspiracy theory that the government filmed a fake moon landing and passed it off as the real thing. Fortunately, in the 55 years since, we have come to recognize that theory as the hoax, but it does provide this film with a plotline.
Those of us who were around in 1969 will remember being glued to our TV sets to watch the first humans to step on the moon. We may not Read More

Los Alamos
As I am nearing a full half-century on this planet, and as I have a wife who is concerned that I spend at least most of the second half of a century alive with her, I went to the doctor today for an annual checkup. For convenience’s sake, we scheduled my daughter’s physical as well, right before mine. As expected, she’s in much better health than I am.
While we were waiting to take a second blood-pressure reading (hoping in vain that it would come down a little), I found out that our doctor dabbles Read More

Mama goose, Ed and their gosling were spotted today at Ashley Pond. The gosling first debuted as a tiny yellow fluff ball with its mama in early June. Mama goose with her pal Ed laid approximately 11 eggs in early May. Los Alamos County Senior Animal Control Officer Theresa Phelan kept a watchful eye on the new parents and their eggs and checked them daily. When she noticed four of the eggs had been eaten by some predator, a dog igloo was erected around the nest and when bits of lettuce were spotted near the shelter, a small construction fence was installed. These precautions were taken, Phelan explained Read More
