Issue: June 04, 2015

Dear Folks,
Join us this week for a trip to Oz. Our cover story deals with the
just-ended 2015 Nevada Legislature at which Republicans used their new
majorities on each other.
Elsewhere in this issue, Kris Vagner profiles a trio of Fallon
ceramicists, Bob Grimm reviews the new disaster flick San Andreas, and
Brian Burghart interviews Seed Cafe owner Rachelle Lanning. In Green,
Georgia Fisher gets information on what that unusual flurry of rains
means. Brad Bynum describes the music of local band The Scatterings. In
news, we talk with political scientists about what a case now pending
before the U.S. Supreme Court may mean for Nevada politics.
Thank you for reading us.
