Issue: February 09, 2012

Hi, everybody.
Brad Bynum this week gives cover treatment to the Great Basin
Community Food Co-op, recounting its evolution from an underground
buyers' club to a successful business moving into new quarters on
Court Street. Ashley Hennefer gives us the latest on digital
billboards and whether they breach the city's voter-approved law
capping the number of billboards. We cover the Republican caucuses
last weekend and Bruce Van Dyke gets into the Super Bowl. Brad has
an interview with Reno musician Whitney Myer about her impending
appearance on NBC's The Voice. And don't overlook our consumer tests
of the latest technology in sex toys.
Thanks for reading our newspaper. If it weren't for you, we might be
forced to eat junk food.
