Issue: December 31, 2015
Hello Everyone,
In the first Reno News & Review issue of 2016, we're bringing you essays
from two women whose personal experiences lend a good opportunity for us
to stop and reflect on the issues "both big and small" that really matter.
Also in this issue, Dennis Myers takes a look at what billionaire
Sheldon Adelson's acquisition of the Las Vegas Review-Journal could mean
for Nevada Democrats. Bob Grimm discusses Quentin Tarantino's new movie,
The Hateful Eight. Kelsey Fitzgerald, our Green columnist, tells us how
a man and his goat herd are helping keep Christmas trees out of
landfills, and RN&R regular Kris Vagner takes us on a visit to the
University of Nevada Reno's Sheppard Gallery to see how artist Emily
Arthur is bringing a fresh perspective to the arguably tired world of
bird-themed art.
Happy New Year, and thanks for reading.
Warm regards,
Jeri Chadwell-Singley
Special project editor
