Lodger Tax Advisory Board
Dear Councilors,
Here are comments and questions that I request that you address concerning agenda item AGR1163-25 on tonight’s agenda (multi-year tourism marketing agreement).

Duplicate Bridge In Los Alamos: Sept. 22, 2005
BRIDGE News:
Winners of last week’s games were Cliff Rudy (twice), Michelle Rudy and Jerry Fleming. Bill Dorin from Fort Collins, a long time Los Alamos resident and former member of our bridge club, checked in and asked if there were players he would remember. It turned out there are a few.

By JOHN PAWLAK
White Rock
The trouble with numbers is that they can be hard to relate to. And the bigger the number, the harder it becomes. People tend to prefer small numbers. Well, not when talking about salaries though!
When teaching math, students would complain to me about having to learn concepts that were “totally useless, Mr. Pawlak!”. For example, they hated irrational numbers and imaginary numbers, stating that they would never have to deal with things that confusing in real life. I told them that in many ways, I agreed. With the average number of children under 18 per family now being 1.94, Read More

Gates of Time: The two ‘Gates of Time’ are massive walls that sit on the east and west boundaries of the Oklahoma City National Memorial. The structures each provide an entrance into the memorial and lower the outside daily noise of downtown from the memorial. On the interior side of the gates is the time 9:01 on the east gate and 9:03 on the west gate. These are the minutes before and after the massive explosion. Photo by Gary Warren/ladailypost.com
