Issue: January 08, 2015
Hello readers!
It's officially a new year and we are looking forward to a good one.
This week we continue our annual tradition of choosing a handful of
locals who we believe will be making headlines this year. (Hint: They
include a couple new council members, a farmer and an arts advocate.)
In other news: We look into the recent officer-involved shooting death
of Paradise resident Robert Battaglia; we take a glimpse at what the
silver screen has to offer us in 2015; and celebrate two local heroes in
the emergency room.
As always, thanks for reading!
