Issue: September 25, 2014
Dear Folks,
This week in the Reno News & Review, we offer a women's health guide
with emphasis on breast health, including partnering breast exams,
preventive care, breastfeeding and well-fitting bras. It seems that
most women have never had a real fitting before, according to guide
editor Sage Leehey.
On the cover this week, Brad Bynum decided to look at the way one
local merchant parlayed social media success into success in our Best
of Northern Nevada competition this year and the implications for
this kind of marketing.
In Green, Sage has a lot of information on the smoke from the King
Fire that is permeating our region and lungs. Bruce Van Dyke
comments on the newest African American killed by police, this one
shot in the back in Utah. Bob Grimm looks at what's ahead in autumn
movies and hopes it's an improvement over summer. In News, we look
at a Nevada constitutional amendment approved by voters to require
open meetings of the legislature that has never been implemented by
the lawmakers.
We wish you good health in all this smoke. Stay inside and
communicate by social media.
Take care,
Dennis Myers
News editor
