Issue: March 04, 2010
Hi everybody,
On the cover of this week’s Reno News & Review, news editor Dennis Myers takes a look back at the 26th Special Session of the Nevada Legislature. And we do mean “special.” However, thanks to bipartisan efforts to fund the state, somehow, it turned out to be just as painful as everyone thought it would be. Also in this week’s favorite alternative newsweekly, Sharon Black finds a sushi roll fit for a superman, and Brad Bynum finds a new venue for art, and Bruce Van Dyke finds time for time off. As always, thanks for reading our newspaper. If not for you, we’d probably have to flack for politicians.
Thanks,
Brian
