Food on the Hill: Chocolate Raspberry French Toast
Photo by Sue York/ladailypost.comIngredients:
I like to use the Hawaiian sweet bread in the round loaf for this. I was unable to find the bread shape that I wanted, so I used the Sweet Rolls instead. Just don’t break them apart. If you only can find the rolls, carefully slice off a VERY thin layer of the crust off the bottom and just the very top of the rolls. Slice Read More
Fitness Column: High Intensity Interval Training

As opposed to more traditional aerobic training where individuals maintain roughly the same level of exertion throughout the exercise session, HIIT changes the exertion level throughout the workout.
A typical HIIT sessions has the individual warm up, then increase the intensity of the workout to a level of five to six on a scale of 10, then increase the level of intensity to seven or higher (usually 8 to 8.5), Read More
Letter to the Editor: Gun Show at Pueblo Complex: Irrelevant Battle of Style Rather than Substance
By KHAL SPENCERNancy Schick’s editorial in Sunday’s Los Alamos Daily Post boils down to one issue. She does not like guns, sees them only in the context of school shootings, and does not want the school district to be in any way associated with guns or a gun show. She is certainly entitled to her opinion, but her opinion should not be the basis of the Schools’ policy.
First of all, I take issue with the tone of her essay. The Los Alamos Sportsman’s Club (of which I am a member, but speaking for myself here) bears little resemblance to “…a white-supremacist Read More
Letter to the Editor: Vote FOR UNM-LA. It’s Important!
By Chris ChandlerI guess I jumped the gun…
Last week I started checking the mail for my ballot. I quizzed my husband about it, thinking that he had accidently misplaced it. Voting to support the UNM-LA mil levy is important, and I sure didn’t want to miss my chance. So I contacted the County Clerk. The ballots will be out this week, the week of Aug. 26. I’m glad that I called … better to be safe than sorry.
UNM-LA is an important asset to the community. High school students, young adults and long time residents can, and do, enjoy the excellent course offerings. UNM-LA also Read More
Yang: Final Summer-Lite On: Bird Brain
Final Summer-Lite On: Bird BrainPretend that I am tweeting in this space.
For those “supposedly smart people” who get in trouble for the content of their tweets, my reaction is: Why do it? I am less puzzled by the offensive content than I am by their urge to tweet it … especially for some who actually have thousands of followers.
A professor of psychology was recently censured for tweeting that obese people lack the commitment to get their graduate degrees (because they cannot lose weight). Prof of psych?! Bad content is bad enough, but tweeting it is simply colossal, monumental, Read More
Letter to the Editor: Pueblo Complex is Not a School
By Gerald AntosIn response to Nancy Schick’s Letter to the Editor published Sunday in the Los Alamos Daily Post …
In light of your many years of service and awards, I feel you have forgotten one thing. Pueblo complex is not a school and the school system that owns it can do what they darn well please.
They are being paid for the use and can CHOOSE to overlook liberal viewpoints like yours and rent to a community organization and hold a gun show. The people of the shooting club and MANY others in this community believe that the right to self protection by any means but especially firearms Read More
Letter to the Editor: Debate Not About Right to Own Guns
By Nancy SchickThis weekend there is a gun show at the Pueblo Gym. The gym is on a site owned by the Los Alamos Public Schools. This means that very soon, 40 vendors will gather for the purchase and sale of guns on our tax-payer supported school property.
A discussion has begun about whether or not it is appropriate to conduct gun sales on school district grounds. I began this conversation a few days ago when I emailed Superintendent Gene Schmidt and the five School Board members asking that LAPS discontinue its support of this Read More
