You may see Catholic churches in your area posting notices about the celebration of “All Saints Day” on November 1. This is our annual celebration in which we honor our brothers and sisters in Christ who have, as St. Paul himself wrote: “…have fought the good fight… have finished the race… have kept the faith” (2 Timothy 4:7). …even unto death—deaths very often by martyrdom.
Some still erroneously believe: “There they are … worshipping saints again.” But, as CB’ers used to say: “Negatory, good buddy.” Whenever we Catholics/Orthodox hear others mistakenly accuse us of worshipping Read More
Mail Censorship … A (Mostly) Serious Business In Los Alamos During World War II
This letter was received by Sgt. K. Patterson, a member of the Women’s Army Corps in Los Alamos. At one time, she feared she might lose her job because her brother, who was stationed overseas, sent letters to her claiming that he knew inside secrets about Los Alamos. When her commanding officer found out about the incident, she didn’t write to her brother for the duration of the war, and she received no further mail from him. Later she learned her brother was friends with a soldier who had lived in the Los Alamos area prior to the war! Courtesy/Debra Krikorian

I feel very fortunate to live in a community that provided our children with a quality education in a safe and nurturing environment and would like to make sure that future generations of children and young adults have the same opportunities. With our growing population Read More

CD3 Candidate Marco SernaLetter To The Editor: Elated To Vote For Bernstein

Los Alamos
I’m pleased to share my elation after voting for Christine Bernstein for Los Alamos School Board, District 3.
I think it’s fantastic that an actual educator is running for a seat on the local Board of Education. Both of my parents were teachers—and excellent ones at that, based on the recollections of their former pupils—and I remember them talking often about administrators and policy makers who knew little about the realities they faced, yet who held the purse strings and the power to make meaningful changes on behalf of students and educators.
