This weekend, I volunteered my time at the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. Donned in fur and boots, I gave hugs and greeted Burners flying into Reno for Burning Man. I also imparted valuable information. I shared how to get supplies, travel to Black Rock Desert, and enjoy the festival.

GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump was greeted by nearly 900 attendees inside and some demonstrators outside a fundraising dinner at Harrah's Lake Tahoe in Stateline on Friday night.

Alone. Just sit with that word for a bit. Alone. Does it send chills down your spine? Does it induce a little fear? Or, does is speak to you in a different way?

U.S Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., stopped by the Carson City Democratic Headquarters on Saturday to stump for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and to celebrate the grand re-opening of Clinton's Carson City campaign office.

In 2009, I lost my job at Konami Digital Entertainment. It was devastating. I realized my household now had zero income. My husband at the time didn’t have a job, either. He had been looking for a job for months since he quit his job in Dallas to move us to Southern California.

Mark Salinas, who runs a commercial and community design company in New York City, has been selected to fill the new arts and culture coordinator position in Carson City.

Nearly everyone, it seems, has been focused lately on Donald Trump’s nomination by the Republicans and now the chaos of the Democrat convention. We want to celebrate some other important aspects of the GOP convention (where Ron was a delegate) as reflected in speeches by Paul Ryan, Scott Walker and Mike Pence.

This is in response to a posting by a frequent contributor:

which is yet again a perfect illustration of the sad fact that if one can't make a sensible argument, one resorts to distortions, insults and just plain silliness. But then that's all that's left when one does not have the facts on one's side.

Recently, one of our directors was travelling and saw a fun billboard (on the east coast, not local) advertising super heroes. It gave her an idea. She came back to me and we began to brainstorm. Super heroes can be from any walk of life, have any personality, and be any age.

In Mr. White’s recent paranoid screed against the Northern Nevada Development Agency (NNDA) and against his political opponent, Supervisor Brad Bonkowski, is the classic example of the simplistic “argument of incredulity”. His argument is presented as such: “I don’t know anything about the NNDA, but I know it’s a “government agency”, and therefore it is bad”.

The General Election is just days away! Meet Chris Carver, candidate for Carson City Mayor. The first "Meet the Candidate Night" will be held on August 17th, from 6 to 8 PM in the Juniper Room, Gold Dust West, 2171 E William St, Carson City.

Former United Nations Ambassador John Bolton, Sheriff David A. Clarke, Jr., of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, and U.S. Congressman Dr. Joe Heck will be among the featured speakers at the Second Annual Basque Fry on Aug. 20, 2016, the Morning in Nevada PAC announced Tuesday.

To the Editor:
This November we will choose our Mayor for the next four years. Although I was not selected to move forward to the general election, I am very blessed with a wonderful life and do not regret putting my hat in the ring. I will continue to work hard volunteering for our community and working towards a Carson City that remains a kind and progressive place we all want to live and invest.

I feel there is only one person in the race for Carson City Mayor that shares that common vision and will work with him and stand behind his non-partisan leadership. I ask all of my supporters to stand with me and say “I Like Bob Crowell for Mayor.”

As a voter like you, I am listening to, viewing, and reading much on Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. One is well known in Washington politics and the other also well known but outside the Washington beltway in terms of political experience. Both Clinton and Trump are the presumptive Democratic and Republican candidates for president of the United States respectively. Both have fought very contentious campaigns, Both do not carry a high degree of trust with the American voting public, but for different reasons.

The second round of elections for 2016 is upon the state, this time the June 14 primary for everything that is not president. Many of the races in Northern Nevada have only one candidate for each party and will move straight to the general election.

Chris Forbush's defense claiming a student exemption allowing him to bypass the physical residency requirements to run for office in NRS 218A.200 is without merit. Simply put, you have to be a student to have a student exemption. But here are the facts that are not in dispute:

*Forbush graduated from college in Utah in April of 2015.
*Upon graduation Forbush ceased to be a student in an academic institution.
*Forbush then took the Utah bar exam (not Nevada bar exam) and successfully passed it and began practicing law in Utah.

Assembly candidate Chris Forbush has filed a complaint with the Carson Sheriff's Office asking it to investigate the disappearance of some of his campaign signs.

The biggest question right now is: “Why is Ira Hansen, a sitting Assemblyman from Sparks, going to such lengths to try to make people believe candidate Chris Forbush is ineligible to run for Assembly District 40 in Carson City?” Ira claims it is because he doesn’t want to see Forbush win the primary, but then as the Republican nominee, get thrown off the general election ballot leaving the seat wide open for the Democrat to win. What if that isn’t the reason at all?

It’s an energy that’s being felt in nearly every city. Emotions are high. The tension is thick. The weather is getting warmer and patience is wearing thin.

On the Moses Syndrome

By Karl Edward Neathammer

The “Moses Syndrome”: By observation, can be defined as: “A delusion characterized by the uncritical belief in the promises of “the One” to lead the “Others” to the Promised Land!
