Duplicate Bridge In Los Alamos: March 26, 2026
BRIDGE News:
Ann-Marie Graves and Mary Courtright were Monday winners in flight A. Neill Goltz and Harry Dewey were high in Flight B.
On Wednesday, Steve Kemic and Jennifer Young were 1st in Flight A, while Bobby Haynes and Norm Worth were 1st in Flight B.
Here is another very competitive hand. Both sides should be in the auction. It pays to be bold, especially with the E/W hands.
Board 6 from the March 26 game: East is the dealer and E/W are vulnerable.
After East passes, South may well open 1♥. West will overcall 2♦, and North will raise to 2♥. East should now bid 2♠, which will end the auction unless Read More

The State Game and Fish Department was stocking trout all across the state last week. The Winter Stocking Program in Southern New Mexico is still being done and more locations in Northern New Mexico are being stocked now. The Winter Stocking will end in March.
The Department stocked a total of 33,520 rainbow trout weighing 14,054 pounds.
It looks like there will be one of the weakest spring runoffs in memory this year. The snowpack is already disappearing, and the weather has been unseasonably warm and dry. This is reflected in streamflow Read More

Fr. Glenn: Passionate
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
So, we come this weekend (March 29 this year) to Passion, or “Palm”, Sunday … the latter name referring to the branches placed on the road as the Israelites celebrated the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. While that passage of the Gospel opens the day’s Catholic Mass, it hardly speaks to the whole of the day’s remembrance. Rather, in the Gospel of the day’s Mass and of other denominations’ observances, we have one of the longest, most poignant, and most moving excerpts of our year: the account of Jesus’ sacrifice of Himself—the Last Supper, the agony in the Garden, His arrest, false Read More

Jointly Reported Facts Are Mightier Than ‘Bipartisan’
We live in times of zealous palaver about being “bipartisan” and “working together.” Exactly what these words include is unclear. In times past, New Mexico Citizens for Clean Air & Water pursued ideas of our own that might qualify. Our goal was simpler and mightier than “bipartisan” or “working together.” We found mutual ways of telling missing parts of the whole story.
Over time, we learned that industry is no different from the cross section in every activity.
Gessing: Is New Mexico Suffering From The Curley Effect?
BY PAUL GESSING
President
New Mexico Rio Grande Foundation
I recently came across a concept called The Curley effect. It has nothing to do with Larry and Moe. After some research I learned that The Curley effect, coined by economists Edward L. Glaeser and Andrei Shleifer, is a real concept in political economy. It describes how politicians use wasteful redistributive policies and divisive rhetoric to drive opposing voters out of a city (or in our case a state), thus securing their electoral base.
Named after former Boston Mayor James Michael Curley, it explains how leaders can maintain power Read More
