Issue: January 13, 2011
Hi everybody,
What a week! Despite most of the editorial staff suffering from the cold
that's going around, we've got a great issue for you. On the cover,
Dennis Myers takes a look back at the admirable career of Northern Nevada
statesman Nevada state Senator Bill Raggio. In our Green section, Kat
Kerlin shines a light on an invisible killer, radon. Brad Bynum has a
conversation with guitar virtuoso Joe Satriani for our Arts & Culture
feature. Sheesh, too much to talk about: environment, commentary, news,
politics, arts, and culture. Feel free to click the links below for an
electronic nibble at the main course, but don't forget to pick a
newsprint copy for exclusive cartoons and columnists. As always, thanks
for reading our paper. If not for you, we'd spend our days looking for
something to read, too.
Thanks,
Brian
