Local anglers will have the opportunity to fish for a different gamefish that was introduced into Abiquiu Lake last week.

The State Game and Fish Department stocked 142,870 largemouth bass fry  July 12 into Abiquiu. The fry average just 1.3 inches in size. In three-to-four years they should reach keeper-size. There is a 14-inch size limit for largemouth bass in New Mexico.

By BRUCE WARREN
Los Alamos

You would think that golfers in Los Alamos would be overjoyed to live in a small community with a beautiful 18-hole golf course, heavily subsidized by the taxpayers of this county.

It was a shock to me that Dr. Tom Shankland left his last thoughts in the high-altitude atmosphere that will circulate around the globe forever, then all the cherished moments over 10 years ago I spent in the Physics Building at LANL where Tom was my next-door officemate, popped up in my memories.

In my personal library holdings, there are several books I have inherited from Tom when he gave away his lifetime treasures on the hallway floor for “recycling”. Among them, “Debate about the Earth” has become one of my top picks when my thoughts are in need of Read More

Hopkins: The Second Amendment At The End Of The 20th Century

Editor’s note: John Hopkins wrote this column on the Second Amendment in June 1999. While a few relevant court cases (e.g. Heller) have clarified several issues in the past few decades, he said his column does address the importance of the Fourteenth Amendment in understanding the Second Amendment today.
