If Mr. Javanovich steps forward with legal documents saying who he is, including a Nevada driver's license or state ID card, we will put the letter back online.

Sometimes we all need to remind ourselves of who we really are. To stay true to ourselves. It's been an honor and privilege doing what I do.
Whether its inside the broadcast booth or doing community service outside the booth. There are days that I need to remind myself that I'm not the only one who has expectations of me to succeed.
My own expectations are the toughest for sure, but I am well aware that what I do also impacts others.
I needed to go back and refresh my memory of just who expects me to do well, and who I need to continue to be.

As we near the beginning of another school year, the Carson City Sheriff’s Office would like to remind all drivers to slow down when nearing the school zones.
Remember, it is 15 mph in these zones unless otherwise posted. Sheriff’s deputies will be patrolling the zones throughout the school year and issuing citations to offenders.
One change that should be noted by drivers is the school zones located at Bordewich-Bray Elementary and the Carson Middle School. The zones have been combined and now run the length of King Street from Ormsby Boulevard to Minnesota Street.
