One of my favorite things to do in the spring is to plan a morning brunch in the garden to enjoy the sights and sounds of the season. While souffle is not a traditional New Mexican dish, this green chile cheddar cheese souffle has all the elements to christen it such and invite it to our table frequently. The cloud-light texture, gooey cheese and spicy flavor is the perfect dish to pair with the scents of a flowering garden and birdsong. This recipe is really easy!

An Open Book: Ex Libris – Bender And Orzag

By DAVID IZRAELEVITZ
Los Alamos

Note to Reader: This Open Book column is part of my occasional “Ex Libris” series about books that have made a difference in my life. Hope you enjoy it.

I was pretty good at Math as an undergrad. I was one or two courses short of a second major in the subject, and even the Math I had to use in graduate school was stuff I had already learned or some uninspired extension of methods I was already very familiar with. I was thus confident of success when I followed my friend Mike’s advice and signed up for 18.305, Advanced Analytic Methods in Science and Engineering, a graduate-level Read More

Skolnik: LAPS Attendance Policies … Helping Or Hurting?

By RICHARD SKOLNIK
White Rock

The present LAPS “attendance campaign” may be doing more harm than good and should be terminated immediately. This “campaign” includes giving awards to students for outstanding attendance and giving awards to classrooms with the best attendance. Such efforts are not evidence-based; they risk shaming the large number of students who have missed a significant number of schooldays this year because of illness; and, they lead to the bullying of students who, by getting sick and correctly not going to school, “cause their class” to miss winning an attendance award.
