Letter to the Editor: AT&T Service Not Available in Los Alamos But Sold Here Anyway
By MONIQUE BEYERLEAT&T Service Not Available in Los Alamos But Sold Here Anyway
There is no AT&T service available in Los Alamos, but that won’t stop them from selling you service. I found this out the hard way and wanted to prevent my fellow Los Alamos folks from falling into the same trap.
I had been with AT&T since moving here in 2008 so I thought nothing of upgrading to a 4G smartphone in October. At this time, I began to experience multiple problems with my phone. After repeated failed attempts at troubleshooting with customer service and technical support over the next Read More
Letter to the Editor: Making a Joyful Noise…
By TERALENE FOXXMaking a Joyful Noise: White Rock United Methodist Church Needs an Accompanist
One of the greatest physicists in the modern time, Einstein, said “If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.”
Others have said music is a prayer and a universal language.
Nothing soothes the mind or makes the heart soar more than music. For the congregation at White Rock United Methodist Church, the choir, led by Kelsey Cline inspires us and leaves us with a sense Read More
Letter to the Editor: Urge Gov. to Sign SB 169
By VERNON KERR Senate Bill SB 169 would allow the school districts of New Mexico to give one half unit of credit toward graduation for completing a ”summer civics course” as an elective as is seen in current state law for similar courses.

Eastern New Mexico University already grants three college credit hours for the course. For all the work these students do Read More

Solo Traveler: Planning a Trip from a DistanceI was asked by a friend to put together a trip to Belize for five or six people. I’d never been to Belize so it was quite a challenge to figure out where we might go, and more importantly, how we would get there.
He didn’t want to spend a lot of money and suggested we stay in a rented house together so we could cook. He and his wife were vegans, so eating in restaurants was a challenge. Read More
Letter to the Editor: Back to the Future for Pajarito?
By BILL PRIEDHORSKY
Back to the Future for Pajarito?
As a member of the Ski Club board, I’ve heard concerns about ceding control of Pajarito Ski Area to the County or a third party, and sympathize with them. Pajarito has a wonderful heritage that was earned over the years by the sweat and tears of volunteer effort, and it is painful to envision giving it away, no matter what our confidence in the recipient. Members ask us why we cannot return to this heritage, and prosper as a more modest, volunteer-based organization, as we did in decades past.
Sadly, we cannot return Read More
