Issue: October 16, 2014
Dear Folks,
This week in the Reno News & Review, Brian Burghart runs the latest
installment in his Fatal Encounters series, this one the transcript
of a round table discussion by a panel of experts on how to control
police agencies and what civilian control should look like.
In Green, Sage Leehey writes about how to eat nutritionally, locally,
in season, and on a budget. Brad Brokaw profiles Eric Brooks,
normally thought of as an art promoter but now turning back to his
roots as an artist. In News, we'll have looks at two city campaigns,
for city council and mayor.
Bruce Van Dyke turns his eye on the Ebola virus, Todd South checks
out a Mexican food restaurant, and Bob Grimm tells us about that
Robert Downey Jr./Robert Duvall movie.
Remember to pick up our print edition for the print-only features,
and thank you for reading us.
Take care,
Dennis Myers
