Issue: January 26, 2012

Hi, everybody.
Ashley Hennefer did double duty this week, honchoing our annual
wedding guide and profiling a green group formed by students at the
Davidson Academy. Brad Bynum looks at a band that remembers how
important melody is. K.J. Sullivan tiptoes back into the roiling
food review waters to provide a taste of a new burger joint in the
old Tahoe Burger building. On the cover, a look at how precinct
caucuses can help both careers and personal relationships. The idea
of requiring government-issued identification cards at polling places
is in the news. And our editorial will urge people to run for office
in a year when incumbents will be term-limited out by the dozen.
Thanks for reading our newspaper! If it weren't for you, we'd be left
standing at the altar.
