The future falls behind
Because it’s superficially deep
Welcome to this week’s Reno News & Review. Our Fatal Encounters project continues to get national attention. Just this week, the Washington Post did a pretty good write-up on it: http:// wapo.st/1lPLQPV. I know you’re probably bored reading about what media outlets outside this area are doing with our little efforts, but I’m kind of obligated to mention it. There’s still a pretty good one I’m hanging fire on, but I don’t want to raise anyone’s expectations. We’ve not had what you’d call a slow news day in Reno in quite some time—Tesla, two fatal police encounters, a flame-up at the children’s museum, accusations at the school board, my new lizard died. It’s a good thing I went into the weekly newspaper business so I don’t have to break the news. I’m torn about this Tesla deal. Once again, as we have so many times before, our state has bent over and spread its cheeks to a major industry. Nevada has a long history as a colonial subsidiary of mining, railroads, corporate owned casinos, foreign mining interests, and now the tech industry. I can only imagine that Tesla believes it can import the educated talent to run this enterprise because this deal has once again undercut our children’s future. But hey, at least your kid will be able to wait tables for the factory workers, because even at their most mediocre, they’re going to be among the top jobs in Reno. My kid will be OK. Hopefully, he’ll see the world and get a decent post-high school education before he decides where he wants to put down roots. As far as Reno at large, I can’t imagine the next few years are going to be horrible for us middle-life folks who own homes. You know the sudden influx of people is going to jack up rent and housing prices and rev up that construction bubble blowing machine. That’ll be good for many of us, for various reasons. I, for one, am happy that I put the solar panels and the electric car charging station in my garage. Kind of makes me feel like I was ahead of the curve.
Re “Was it race?” (News, Aug. 28): Why is it always about race? Was the school board racist when they appointed Superintendent Pedro Martinez to his position? Of course not. Did his “race” enter into the deliberations of his appointment? Perhaps so, considering the high dropout rate of Latino and other minority students. The real question should be whether there was legitimate reason to question his credentials and how Mr. Martinez responded when confronted with these questions. It is his conduct at that point that needs to be reviewed, not only his conduct but also that of the board members. Whether another board member of Hispanic background was present or not is not really relevant. The only matter of concern should be whether the proper procedures were followed. Based on news reports of the incident, it seems that all parties concerned behaved in a questionable manner during the proceedings. Apparently, there are still questions that need to be answered and it can only be hoped that all parties have learned a lesson so that future proceedings will be conducted properly. Stirring up questions of race are totally out of place in this matter. Fred Speckmann Reno
the massive tax break is $120 million in transferrable tax credits. Tesla will use them to attract the out-of-state, well-educated workforce Nevada schools can’t provide. Wake up, Nevada voters! Tesla joins casinos, mines and big box stores because you exercise little power. Nevada lawmakers refuse to properly fund education because their campaigns are financed by Nevada Inc. Nevada does not have a corporate-income tax, yet 47 states do. Really? Yes, and you, the regular taxpayer shoulder the expense of a so far, civil society. A margins tax will put an end to giant corporation tax avoidance schemes. Please vote yes on Question 3. Doug Smithson Reno
First, the lawyers Re “Was it race?” (News, Aug. 28): I think race, or more accurately, ethnicity, had too much to do with Martinez’ having been hired, but little to do with his subsequent troubles. Hispanic leaders would be better off advocating for a thorough investigation and due process for all concerned, rather than being tribal about defending one of “their own.” Martinez’ firing of Chief Mieras was baseless, so much so it should arouse suspicion of either wrongdoing or incompetence on the part of Martinez. And the Board’s subsequent firing of Martinez was so clumsy that it alone should cost chief general counsel Randy Drake his own job. Both firings indicate a CGC who’s at best incompetent, and at worst corrupt. None of this mess would have happened with competent in-house counsel. Kudos to Kent Robison for quickly supplying that much-needed competence. Robison could probably also recommend a new CGC who’s worth half a crap, ethnicity N/A. C.G. Green Reno
Master Tesla Re “Nevada owned and operated by business” (Left Foot Forward, Sept. 4): Tesla merges with Nevada Inc. to pull off a tax inversion without leaving U.S. shores, saving $1.2 billion in corporate income taxes. Watch your wallet, Nevada taxpayers. Is Tesla pledging $25 million to Nevada schools? Nice start, but $975 million short. I predict more Nevada students sitting on classroom floors, sharing outdated textbooks. But hey—finally, a no-tax environment has attracted a big fish. Shhh about Nevada’s history of “boom and bust.” And forget about updating your job resume if you have a Nevada diploma. Part of

Give peas a chance
style of government depends upon the availability of free speech. Citizens must be able to challenge authority in a peaceful manner without fear that their wealth and freedom will be taken from them by a tax agency doing the bidding of the highest bidder in Congress. The FairTaxHR25 may have flaws —what tax structure does not?—but it does restore liberty, something a flat tax can never do. www.fairtax. org is a good place to start your own personal quest for information about this proposal. Beverly Martin Fulton, Missouri
In 1981 the United Nations established Sept. 21 as the International Day of Peace. In doing so, the UN, in spite of very troubling times, has devoted itself to encouraging worldwide peace and justice. This year, in addition to Peace Day, we are also celebrating a week of nonviolent action as established by Pace e Bene Campaign Nonviolence. We are extremely proud to say that Gov. Sandoval, Mayor Cashell, Mayor Martini, and Mayor Crowell have each recognized this important day and week by officially proclaiming September 21-27 as the International Week of Peace and Non-Violent Action for the State of Nevada, City of Reno, City of Sparks, and Carson City. To culminate this week, Sierra Interfaith Action for Peace (SIAP) and other Peace and Justice groups will be sponsoring a Peace Day Celebration on Saturday, Sept. 27, 2-4 p.m. at City Plaza, 10 N. Virginia St. The theme of the event is PeoplePlanet-Peace. This summarizes our hopes and efforts for the health and well-being of all humans, our environment, and the end of war and violence in the world. We hope you will join us. Patricia R. Coia Reno
Ignorant Re “Pawn stars” (Art of the State, Aug. 21): Apparently, Jessica Santina went to see a play about a subject she dislikes, featuring songs she doesn’t like, in a setting she doesn’t understand (community theater). The fact that she went means she either expected to write a flop “Yelp” style review—showing off some hasty Google research and then panning it like an “expert”—or her expectations were in line with a professional Broadway production and totally out of line with even the spirit of community theater. Community theater works on a budget so set design is almost always modular. I attended opening night and thought the concept of changing a clean and simple set by moving modular pieces in front of the audience—by players in character—was a fantastic way to do something where the stage is within a couple of feet of the audience on three sides, and curtains are an impossibility. While there were some issues with volume and acoustics, I still found the whole production entertaining. I hadn’t seen the aforementioned Broadway version—and likely Santina hasn’t either—so comparing this production to a massive 1988 spectacle is just an attempt to sound like she knows what she’s talking about, which she doesn’t. Felix Danger Reno
Challenge authority Advocating the FairTaxHR25 as an economic issue underestimates the impact of the FairTaxHR25 on liberty. The FairTaxHR25 defunds and disbands the IRS. This is why politicians, think tanks and lobbyist oppose FairTaxHR25. The IRS has silenced, threatened, and raped the wealth of America for over 100 years. The fear of an audit has silenced Americans, organizations and corporations. The wasted money spent on compliance is just that: wasted. If one wants to argue the benefits of the income tax over the FairTax please get in line with the socialist who want to see capitalism destroyed. Look at what the corporate gains tax is doing to corporate America and American jobs. Our

I think it’s a good deal for Nevada. It may take a while for people to see that. But I think long-term, it will be a good thing.
Michael Falk College student
I think Tesla’s an awesome opportunity, especially for Nevada. It’s going to bring in thousands of new jobs. I was reading somewhere on line it’s going to bring in millions upon millions of dollars in revenue to the state, which is awesome. Hopefully, it’ll go to education. We’re one of the last states in education. … What I hope and what’s likely might be two different stories. … I hope they’ll do the right thing. |

Betting on the come line True to her nature, Nevada is set to embark on a huge gamble by embracing the dream of economic prosperity propagated by a new and unproven mass-produced technology. Amid much fanfare, Gov. Brian Sandoval announced last week that Nevada had won the right to offer by Tesla, a private company specialSheila Leslie izing in the development of electric cars, the 10th largest taxpayer subsidy in U.S. history to build its battery factory in Nevada: close to $1.3 billion. In an only-in-Nevada twist, one of the individuals who will profit the most from the “mega-deal” is brothel owner Lance Gilman, as he and his partners earn a cool $43 million thanks to Nevada taxpayers’ purchase of the right of way of USA Parkway in front of their Industrial Park. As part of the Tesla deal, Gilman and his cohorts will be further enriched when the state extends the road to U.S. 50, costing taxpayers about $50 million more, to provide easier workforce access to the industrial park and Gilman’s nearby brothel.
It’s hard to say which is the most offensive tax break in the massive giveaway. Is it the sales tax and property tax that won’t go to our schools, which desperately need more money, not less? Is it the $195 million in tax credits Tesla will sell at a discount to other businesses, a cash windfall for its shareholders? Or is it the “charitable contribution” (and corresponding tax write-off) of $37 million over five years to the state’s Distributive School Account, meant to deflect criticism of the millions lost by granting Tesla 20 years of avoiding sales tax and 10 years of relief from property and payroll taxes? One does have to smile at the early demise of the film industry’s tax bonanza, approved just last year, to help pay for Tesla’s tax credits. Apparently the phantom Hollywood jobs were no match for the Tesla battery assembly line as Sandoval slashed the $80 million giveaway to $10 million, awarding the $70 million saved to Tesla instead. Easy come, easy go. Right, Nic Cage?
Another surprise was the elimination of a $125 million tax break to insurance companies who locate their home offices in Nevada, something Democrats repeatedly tried to take away during the recession to help balance the budget, but were consistently thwarted by the Republican leadership. Tesla wins again. There was lots of bragging about Tesla’s 6,500 new jobs that will require expertise in science, technology, engineering and math. However, there was no talk about how Washoe County, future home of most of the workforce, will produce these employees from its overcrowded and crumbling schools. The giddy economic development officials promise an 80-to-1 return on Nevada’s investment of $1.25 billion over the next 20 years, an imagined economic impact of $100 billion, ignoring the plethora of national business experts who scoff at that figure. As the Legislature meets this week to consider the deal, which was negotiated in secret. Let’s hope legislators ask the right questions. After all, their
what’s

SEPTEMBER 12
constituents are quite familiar with recent empty promises of corporate welfare personified by the Aces ballpark fiasco or the largest corporate subsidy in the state’s history, the $89 million Apple giveaway. Legislators will surely approve the gargantuan gift to Tesla from Nevada taxpayers after a few face-saving moments to prove due diligence and their negotiating skill, leaving the rest of us to wonder why there’s always millions available for the shareholders of private companies but never enough for our schools. Tesla promotes itself as a clean energy company of the future and promises to diversify Nevada’s economy and enrich us, though no one knows if they’ll succeed. But we do know that we won’t be gambling with the stockholders’ fortune; we’ll be gambling with our own. Ω

Here’s a 10-minute supercut of Nic Cage crying over Nevada’s worsening education prospects: https:// www.youtube.com/ watch?v=DDdM_0Xn1l8
silverlegacy.com
Ferguson in Nevada The furor over the shooting of an unarmed 18-year-old black man in Ferguson, Missouri, by a white police officer has sparked a national debate over the militarization of the police. The progressive left and the libertarian right flanks of the parties are coalescing in agreement and by Brendan demanding the police be de-militaTrainor rized. This alliance is beginning to crack open fault lines in both major party establishments. Could there be a major realignment soon? The Washoe County Sheriff’s Department has a small SWAT team, and Sparks Police has a part-time SWAT presence. Reno PD openly proclaims it practices community policing. Las Vegas Metro has the worst reputation for police overreaction in Nevada, and it is currently under Department of Justice oversight to change its culture to community policing. Former San Jose Police Chief Joseph McNamara on the left, and constitutionalist Sheriff Richard
Mack from the right, work to reform police practices by emphasizing community involvement by police officers and their role as “peace officers” rather than “law enforcement officers.” The tragic death of Michael Brown shows that there is still a long way to go. Why did officer Wilson harass Brown for jaywalking on an empty street? Why did he believe the threat posed by the unarmed Brown was so imminent he had to shoot at him 10 times? And why was the over the top use of tear gas, rubber bullets, militarystyle camouflage uniforms, and other shocking instances of police overreaction to the demonstrators such standard procedure? That the Pentagon freely gives heavy military equipment to local police forces is in large part to blame, but there is more to it. As Sen. Rand Paul has said, if a policeman told him to get back on the sidewalk, he might have lipped off, but wouldn’t expect
El!l ages E FuRn for a
to die for it. Conservative Sean Hannity, a concealed-carry enthusiast, showed his ignorance by saying if the police stopped him he would pull up his shirt to show he had a legal gun on his waist. Doesn’t he know if he was black, that action alone would likely be met with a hail of police gunfire? Would a white man killed by a black police officer be allowed to bleed out, uncovered on the street, for more than four hours? Sen. Dean Heller (R) says he stands with Paul and opposes police militarization. Sen. Harry Reid (D) says he supports the militarization with more “oversight.” The War on Drugs, the overreaction to 9-11, and “broken window” police tactics have gotten us here. But there is much more to it. Local governments have got to tell their police departments, as Davis in California just did, to return the MRAPs (Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected) to the Pentagon.
And they have to stop the use of SWAT teams to serve ordinary search warrants and stop no-knock raids on non-violent suspected drug dealers. Conservative reformers have to regard the police unions with the same skeptical eye they reserve for teacher’s unions. We all have to acknowledge that the problem is much deeper than a few bad apples. The entire barrel is spoiled. That is not to say there are no good cops. What is rotten is the systemic unaccountability, poor training, us-against-them mentality, and outsized deference police commonly demand. You can’t shoot to kill low-level threats in the name of “officer safety,” and then proclaim constantly how heroic you are. We need more Republicans to take the Bill of Rights seriously, and more Democrats to stand up to the big city Democrat machines, so together we can restore peace and justice to our streets. Ω

Three year old Bentley Papez gets a look at a tranquilized bear at the Nevada Wildlife Department. The boy stroked the bear’s brown fur, which is a bit coarse.
Nevada keeps high femicide rate Nevada ranks sixth in the nation in the rate of women murdered by men. The state has placed in the top 10 of this list nine of the past 10 years. Last year was the one exception, when the state dropped to number 16. Using FBI figures, the Violence Policy Center found Nevada has a rate of 1.83 homicides of women per 100,000 population. The figures are for 2012, the most recent year for which the data is complete. The VPC said in part, “The overwhelming majority of these homicides were not related to any other felony crime, such as rape or robbery. Nationwide, for homicides in which the circumstances could be identified, 85 percent of the homicides were not related to the commission of another felony. Most often, females were killed by males in the course of an argument between the victim and the offender.” “Reducing domestic violence homicide is the responsibility of all Nevada’s communities,” said Nevada Network Against Domestic Violence director Sue Meuschke. “As this report points out, women in Nevada are at a higher risk of being victims of homicide perpetrated by people they know and love. Much more must be done in our state to change this outcome beginning with common sense laws that keep firearms out of the hands of abusers. According to this report 70 percent of the domestic homicides committed in Nevada were committed with a firearm, much higher than the national average of 53 percent.” In company with Nevada on this list are Alaska, South Carolina, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Arizona, Georgia and Tennessee.

State Route Tesla planned The Las Vegas Review-Journal this week reported that Gov. Brian Sandoval’s Tesla deal will cost $100 million more than previously announced. The RJ’s Sean Whaley reported that the state will drive a new highway through Storey County from Interstate 80 to Interstate 50 to accommodate Tesla’s transportation needs. It will go through some scenic areas that currently are accessible only to those who make an effort to get there. Such a link has long been planned but was not envisioned anytime soon. Whaley reported that current estimates of cost for right of way are $43 million and for construction about $55 million.
Sick lake needs help A public meeting on the future of Virginia Lake is planned at which city officials will brief the public on problems and the public can be heard. The lake is suffering from toxicity caused by high nutrient enrichment and a lack of flows that cause “dead spots.” Cormorants and gulls are particularly suspected of fostering toxins because of their high fish diet, which reenters the lake as excrement. Blue green algae, which creates toxins that are hazardous to birds, fish and mammals, is one result. In addition, it’s more than just the lake that is damaged. The watershed is also harmed by water that flows through the lake into Steamboat Creek, Boynton Slough and the Truckee River, picking up toxins on its way. The lake was created by the New Deal’s Works Progress Administration in 1937. It was designed for swimming and wading with an average depth of five and a half feet. It covers 24.5 acres and is fed by the Cochran Ditch, which enters at the northwest corner. The Nevada Legislature passed control of the lake and other WPA projects to Washoe County in 1939. The lake is now managed by the city of Reno. The meeting will be held at Thursday, Sept. 18, starting at 5:30 at Swill Coffee, 3366 Lakeside Drive.

SEPTEMBER 11, 2014
An area behind the Nevada Department of Wildlife is filled with television cameras. Two Karelian Bear dogs are by at parade rest. Wildlife employees mill Dennis Myers around while television photographers try to get shots of a live bear through narrow grills on the side of a big steel can called a bear trap. On the can’s closed door is a sign: “KEEP OUT! DO NOT APPROACH/ DON’T WORRY … BEARS CAN’T READ.”
“You’re the one intruding into the habitat that they live in.” Chris Healy Wildlife Department spokesperson Some of the wildlife folks have hats bearing the saying, “I’m Bear Aware. ARE YOU?” The side of a truck reads, below the NDOW door logo, “BEAR Logic. Think! like a bear.” On the back door is painted, “Visit our Karelian Bear dogs/ NDOW BEAR TEAM.” And there is a warning to cars: “DO NOT PARK HERE/ BEAR TRAP PARKING ONLY/ VIOLATORS WILL SLEEP WITH THE FISHES.” That’s wildlife humor. It’s the bear’s third trip through the Wildlife Department. The previous two visits were not the bear’s idea. She was captured for research purposes, then later released. This time, she was captured because she
apparently got so hungry that she came down out of the mountains looking for food and was captured at Lakeview, an affluent housing area on the south end of Washoe Valley, the north end of Carson City. She now bears a tag labeling her No. 26. The wildlife folks explain that there are a couple of types of bears that are captured. One is like this one, wild bears who prefer to range through its large territory and stay away from humankind. The others are less attractively named garbage bears. They tend to stay in a small area that is near what is called the “urban interface”—the edges of a city or town. Wild bears are like No. 26, about 150 pounds. Garbage bears are larger, 300 or more pounds. It’s the price they pay for eating human food and not getting much exercise, just like people. The arrival of white humans in this region and the birth of mining were a disaster for bears. Before that time, black bears like this and some grizzlies wandered the area. (Basically, most non-grizzlies,whatever their color—and 26 is actually brown—are called black bears, to distinguish them from grizzlies, which are often called brown bears.) But then the Comstock mines denuded Sierra slopes and the Lake Tahoe basin of timber to provide lumber for the square-set supports in mines, annihilating the bears’ habitat. The bears nearly disappeared from the region. And they mostly stayed away for a long time after return of new growth timber, until late in the
20th century. Interactions with humans started becoming a problem in the 1980s. By last year, a study in the Journal of Wildlife Management put the number of bears in Nevada at 400 to 700. The returned bears sparked controversy, particularly when Nevada started allowing bear hunting in 2011. “In my 25-plus years with the department, it was by far the most controversial decision we’ve been involved with,” said Wildlife Department spokesperson Chris Healy in 2011—this in a department that is constantly dogged by second-guessing from environmentalists on one hand and hunting/fishing folks on the other. The human/bear contact problem has never gotten any easier, and Healy now says it has a lot more to do with the humans than the bears. Those humans have a responsibility, he said last week, to keep pet food inside, to harvest fruit. The bears really don’t want anything to do with humans, but the humans—often without knowing it—attract the bears. “It’s really important for people to remember that they have the responsibility,” he said. “The animals are doing what their instincts tell them to do, and that’s go out and feed and do it as much as possible. For the human beings, they have the cognitive knowledge. They have the ability to think. So don’t attract animals with your activity.” When humans put out pet food bowls, he said, they are also putting out wild animal bowls. When they put up bird feeders, they’re putting up bear feeders. And, “Just because you put up a dog door doesn’t mean that is the only animal that’s going to use it.” The wild bear at the Wildlife Department, remember, weighed only about 150 pounds. Right now, unharvested fruit is a particular concern because bears are going after it. “If you don’t want to use the fruit, get it off the trees, and off the ground, and throw it away,” Healy said. He keeps talking about the need to think like a bear. “You have a responsibility—a higher responsibility—if you live in those foothill areas to respect the wildlife, because you’re the one intruding into the habitat that they live in,” he said. “So if you don’t want bears, you don’t want other animals attracted to you, then don’t put out things that will attract them.” Some humans go even further, knowingly attracting bears by feeding them. Wildlife officials have warned Lake Tahoe residents not to feed bears and prosecutors are now considering

Photographed when she was still awake, the bear is considered a “wild bear� in contrast with “garbage bears� who take up residence near urban areas where they can find food in human trash.
n i g h t s p o t
charging one woman who was attacked and injured by a bear after she had fed bears for years. Healy’s comment about bears feeding “as much as possible� refers to the fact that currently, bears are probably responding to hyperphagia— bulking up as much as possible for the winter ahead. “We anticipate an increase in bear conflicts as the summer, fall progresses,� said game biologist Carl Lackay, who spends most of his time on bears. “This is the beginning of hyperphagia for bears. That’s the time when they’re really trying to eat as much as they can, taking in a high number of calories to put on a fat layer for the upcoming winter. We generally see a lot of bear activity in the urban wildland interfaces in September and October.� The bear displayed for journalists last week was released back into the wild a day or two later. After her first
couple of captures, she was outfitted with a tracking device that didn’t always work well, though they did learn the extent of her range, which was considerable. Now that she was back in their hands, they gave her a new one that they hope will provide more information. Lackay believes she is pregnant. “With this collar, we’ll be able to follow her to her winter den site,â€? he said. “And then in March, if she has cubs, they’re usually born around February 1st. We’ll go in mid-March to late March when those cubs are six to eight weeks old, we’ll go into those den sites, count the cubs, sex the cubs [determine their sex], and mark those cubs, and then take some samples, DNA samples ‌ and give them a collar at the same time. And then the following winter when those cubs are a year old we’ll go back into the den site, see how many of those cubs survived that first year.â€? That will help Lackay and others learn how much the population of bears in the region are a product of reproduction and how much the result of immigration. The results can give anti-immigrant folks something else to worry about. Ί

The first Port of Subs, on Rock Boulevard in Sparks, has shut down. Opened as the Sub Shop, it was bought by Reno High alums John and Pat Larsen in 1975. They changed the name to Port of Subs, added stores throughout the valley, and began franchising in 1985. There are now nearly 150 stores in seven states. Number 1 was most recently operated by Brent and Kathy Bryan, who tried to sell the store before finally shutting it down. A sign on the window says all equipment is still in place so the store can open again. But that equipment is also for sale.

Scientists used fiber optic thermometers, like this one held by Scott Taylor, to measure the water temperature in Devils Hole.
Fish out of water Desert fish near extinction In an isolated, small cavern filled with geothermal water in the Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge in Southern Nevada, there’s a tiny desert fish that lives no where else. And there’s only about 35 of them left. by Sage Leehey This pool—Devils Hole—is only connected to other waterways in the subterranean, so these fish cannot swim to another location. University of sagel@ Nevada, Reno hydrological sciences professor Scott Taylor is the principal newsre view.c om investigator on Las Vegas Desert Research Institute hydrologist Mark Hausner’s new study that details how climate change is bringing this fish—the Devils Hole pupfish—to the brink of extinction. The study was completed for Hausner’s dissertation as a student at UNR. “The fish live in this sort of strange world, and they like to spawn when there’s food available, and that happens when the sun gets high enough in the sky in the springtime to hit the water surface in Devils Hole,” Taylor said. The sun allows plankton, diatoms and other food sources for the pupfish to grow in the water, but it’s also when the water temperature is at its highest. “So the period when they can actually spawn or lay their eggs and hatch is a somewhat narrow window,” Taylor said. “So what’s happening is that as the climate changes, the air is warming so the pond surface is getting warmer faster in the season, so before the sun comes up to make the food, the water is already getting too warm for them to spawn effectively.” They measured water temperature, modeled how the water mixes and overturns seasonally in Devils Hole and took the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s predictions for climate change and ran them together in a numerical model to determine what the effects will likely be on the pupfish. They found that the optimal recruitment period—the time when conditions For more information on this study, visit are ideal for hatching and feeding of the larvae—will be shortened by two http://tinyurl.com/ weeks by mid-century. This is in addition to the one week the period has omtsg5e. already been shortened because of warming that has already occurred. The water level in Devils Hole also contributes to warming—it’s about a foot lower than it has historically been, which makes the water easier to heat. Taylor said this is partly because of drought conditions and climate change, but it also has to do with groundwater pumping for agriculture in the late ’60s. This was halted by the Supreme Court, but it still occurs in the area—just farther away. There are many questions about this fish species and Taylor sees these as opportunities to learn more and then apply it to other species and topics. Where did these fish come from? How did they get to Devils Hole? And how did they survive around 10,000 years of isolation and breeding with very limited genetic material? Part of the reason these fish are important is for scientific study, but Taylor also says that all species are important. Projects to save this species from extinction are underway and varied. Some eggs have hatched and survived outside of Devils Hole in an aquarium and scientists are working to get them to breed outside, too. Hausner is also using models to look into ways to cool the water—maybe by shading the hole—and ways to raise the water level in order to counteract the warming. Taylor said this project could open doors to new research in the future. “We’ve combined strong engineering and mathematics with ecology, and bringing those two disciplines together is pretty powerful,” Taylor said. “It kind of lays out a little bit of a pathway to look at other species that may be impacted by climate change.” Ω OPINION

On
August 18, a reporter asked U.S. Sen. Harry Reid about Question 3, placed on the ballot by citizen signatures to create a business tax. The reporter mentioned Tesla as one corporation that might be affected. Reid perked up, focusing on Tesla instead of the actual question. “Well, I wouldn’t start counting the jobs in Tesla right now, anyway, so—we’ll see,” Reid said. “I’m not sure they’re not playing us for a—.” He did not finish the sentence, halting as though he thought he was going too far. “I appreciate very much the governor’s keeping me informed of what’s been going on with Tesla,” he continued after a long moment’s thought. “He’s tried very, very hard, and I’ve told him and I’m telling each of you I support what he’s done. We’ve done things to help with the passage for Tesla. We’ll have to wait and see, but I’m not going to start counting the jobs until it happens.” The jobs at stake are no small prize.

look at California and had called off the work in the Silver State for the time being to focus on the Golden State, an interpretation that went untouched in Nevada journalism but turned out to be true. Tesla then spent weeks looking at California. The Reno Gazette-Journal awarded the factory to Nevada on Aug. 1, using just enough weasel words to hang by its fingernails in case the decision went the other way: “Reno area has Tesla gigafactory—but can we keep it?” By contrast, the transportation industry website Long Tail Pipe reported, under the headline “Gigafactory says goodbye to Reno, California has closed the gap.” This happened time and again as the Tesla story unfolded, Tesla developments inside the state being cleaned up for positive presentation to the Nevada public while outside they were reported more realistically. When a deal between Panasonic and Tesla to join together on the

battery plant was announced, no one we could find inside Nevada reported the limitations. Outside? Barron’s: “Panasonic Corp committed to help [Tesla], but part of the deal remains missing: the financing plan.” Barclays: “Panasonic would invest only $200300mn initially.” Of course, shielding the public from reality involves more than just screening breaking news. It also means avoiding enterprise reporting. Rigorous scrutiny of the Tesla project has been lacking in Nevada, so the implications of the Tesla project for workers, the environment, taxpayers, quality of life, and other factors are unknown.
Taxpayers Tesla wants a half-billion dollars to award the plant. For California or Texas, that’s chump change. For Nevada, it might be crippling. The state budget for the current fiscal year is $3.2 billion. The subsidies for Tesla would be a whopping 15.6 percent of that. The governor is offering them more than twice that figure, so it will be at least 31 percent. Nothing like this is envisioned in state law, so the Legislature had to be called into special session to authorize it. Some business leaders who have never been known to speak favorably of welfare when given to humans are supporting it for a needy billion dollar corporation, but that sentiment is not unanimous. Opposed businesspeople are seldom quoted, though it’s not as though they are hard to find. Industrial Properties of Nevada owner Mark Glenn: “But I am totally against those corporate subsidies for the big guys when everyone else is paying their way.” Nevada has not had a lot of luck with special sessions to accommodate specific individual corporations. In 1926, a special session was held to smooth the way legally for construction of a Clark County hotel that was never built. In 1984, a special session was held to amend state law for Citicorp to build a credit card center in Las Vegas. The law was changed, the center was built, and Citicorp then tried to distance itself from association with Las Vegas by making the address that appeared on all those credit card invoices “The Lakes, Nv.” instead of “Las Vegas.” When hard times came, the center closed. Assembly Speaker Marilyn Kirkpatrick, a Clark County Democrat, doesn’t flatly say no, but did say she thought subsidies for Tesla are a mistake. “We don’t have a checkbook such as Texas has,” she said. USA Today characterized her as believing that Tesla should be satisfied with the state’s lower taxes, worker’s 14 | RN&R |

injury insurance premiums, fast permit processing, and quality of life. Quality of life?
QualiTy of life Perhaps Kirkpatrick was referring to the state’s education system, which bounces along the bottom of most national rankings, or its high suicide rate, or soak-the-poor tax system. Or the state’s ranking for prenatal care, homicide against women, tobacco use, tobacco-related death, alcohol- and drug-related death, firearms death, childrens’ health, mental health, health generally, rate of working people in poverty, toxic releases, child immunizations, reading skills, dropout rate (on both high-school and college levels), infectious disease, and crimes of all types. Some claims about Nevada are subjective. But these kinds of factors are established by empirical proof so conclusively that a local cliché has become popular—“Nevada’s high in everything you want to be low in and low in everything you want to be high in”. All of this is a reminder of how tight-fisted the state has been when it comes to human needs, of how serious and deep—and expensive—are the state’s problems and how little it can afford to subsidize loaded businesses. It has been more generous in paying corporations to come to Nevada and compete with local businesses, as with Scheels in Sparks and Cabela’s in Verdi. But that kind of payoff is penny ante compared to what is demanded by Tesla. Going into special legislative session to pay a mammoth corporation a mammoth amount to come to the state would be quite a departure. Politicians in five states pandering to a huge corporation set in motion a bidding war that pit them against each other. Initially, Tesla named four states as candidate states—Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Texas. California wasn’t on the list, but Gov. Jerry Brown, stung when large corporations departed the state for Texas, saw Tesla as a way to demonstrate the state’s appeal. Losing occasional small businesses to Nevada was only an irritant, but losing Toyota to Texas was major. Brown went to work with a vengeance. In June at Fremont, he took a test drive in a Tesla Model S with state Treasurer Bill Lockyer in the passenger seat, then talked solar and rockets with Tesla CEO Elon Musk. In July, he signed legislation providing welfare for Tesla. In August, it was announced that Brown was considering suspending provisions of state law that normally require state and local government to review new development projects to address environmental threats. He also wanted to allow Tesla to go ahead with construction on its own timetable and mitigate environmental damage later, plus shield the corporation from lawsuits. Those were outside a

governor’s authority and may be why the California deal fell through. Meanwhile, back in Nevada, Gov. Brian Sandoval on his belly to Telsa may not be dignified, but it sends a powerful message to state agencies, including environmental officials: Don’t get in Tesla’s way.
environmenT Tesla portrays itself as environmentally sensitive. Solar and wind power generation are planned for the battery plant. CEO Musk says the right things about the need to “reduce carbon output and stave off a catastrophe.” But one of the demands he made of the state governments is less regulation than other corporations must face, including environmental regulation. In California, he pushed for suspension of provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act. This is a supposedly green corporation that doesn’t want to obey anti-pollution laws. “It would be no small irony if Tesla turned up its nose at California, where it sells a third of its electric cars, because the state proved to be too green,” the Los Angeles Times noted last week—and when California didn’t come across, Tesla turned to a state without such protections. Nevada residents in particular have an interest in maintaining enforcement
of its environmental laws and regulations. For one thing, the Nevada Legislature has enacted fewer environmental protections than most states, so it becomes more important to enforce those that exist. For another, the state pays a high price for its government’s lack of vigilance. In June, as usual, Nevada placed high—sixth—on an annual list of toxic releases in the 50 states, with carcinogens and toxins that foster developmental disabilities in prominent play. Tesla chose a Nevada site for the factory that will foster sprawl. The site is 16.6 miles from the nearest city, which is Sparks—and that’s just the distance from the factory gate to the city limits. Cargo vehicles driving 33 miles every workday to transfer and shipping points in the Truckee Meadows will burn up a lot of petroleum. The factory can reduce that factor for its 6,000-plus workers by creating shuttles, but workers who drive anyway will still contribute. There is a wide assumption in the local business community that Tesla will import most workers, fostering growth and putting more strain on the limited local resources, particularly water. Interestingly, given the green personality cult surrounding Musk, a lot of environmental activists are so bewitched by the notion of Tesla’s electric cars that they let slide both its
suspicious wish for special treatment under environmental law and the hazard for taxpayers. An example of these blinders is Gas2, a green website (“Green cars that don’t suck”) that has been almost gleeful over the competition by the states to screw taxpayers: “It’s been fun watching each state inch ahead only to be overtaken—at least in the news—with promises and offers from another. We previously put our money on a table in the Silver State. But then Arizona inched forward with personal invitations to Elon Musk, easy access to raw materials, and pending legislation to change the state’s franchise laws. And now it’s Texas’s turn.” Given how much of Nevada’s revenue is paid by the working poor, environmentalists seem less than sympathetic to workers.
Workers Early in the process of Tesla dancing Nevada around, local workers got a taste of what a Tesla presence might be like. “They came in and hired a lot of our people,” said one Operating Engineers official who did not want to be named. “They [the workers] did not get what they were told they would get.” Some of the workers quit steady jobs to join Tesla and then were quickly laid off. Spouses of some of
the workers similarly quit jobs to get in on the ground floor at Tesla and soon found themselves out of work in spite of their willingness to work seven-day, 84-hour weeks. “The promises were we’d have three to five years of work on the job,” Thon Alsdorf told Pearce. “I was told to quit my job,” heavy equipment operator Kody Kleckner told him. “My wife quit her job, and now we’re just out of luck.” It left a bad taste in the mouths of some workers in western Nevada. Local labor unions are believed now to be researching Tesla’s worker relations record elsewhere, though one union leader said, “We haven’t, because it just seems like so much of it is pretty quiet and secretive.” If information on the corporation is difficult to come by, it’s in keeping with much of Tesla’s M-O. Websites where Tesla workers comment on their workplaces are a wash. Most comments are anonymous, and they are both pro and con. In January, the United Auto Workers launched an organizing campaign at the Tesla Fremont plant.
On at least a couple of occasions, once at a Fremont plant opening, the other in a meeting with union members, Musk called himself “neutral” on the issue of unions. But if that is truly his stance, he has failed to enforce it on his executives. “The mere fact that our labor force could be unionized may harm our reputation in the eyes of some investors and thereby negatively affect our stock price,” read a 2013 Tesla annual report. “Additionally, the unionization of our labor force could increase our employee costs and decrease our profitability, both of which could adversely affect our business, prospects, E lo n Musk financial condiTesla MoTors Ceo tion and results of operations.” Some neutral. In February, Labor Union Report pointed out that when Tesla narrowed down its list of candidate states for the battery plant, it limited the initial list “to states that have low union membership.” Tesla has been aided by relatively one-sided press coverage. Local news entities have barely mentioned workers and some national coverage has carried an anti-union bias, as with

Yahoo Finance reports: “What unions would do to Tesla.” “CAN THE UNIONS BREAK TESLA?” In 2012, Musk told a UAW group that his own lack of a life might be expected of workers: “Right now we’re working six days a week. Some people are working seven days a week—I do—but for a lot of people, working seven days a week is not sustainable. The factory is operational seven days a week but most people we only ask to work six days a week right now and, obviously, we want to get that to a more reasonable number. I think people can sustain a 50-hour work week. I think that’s a good work week. If you’re joining Tesla, you’re joining a company to work hard. We’re not trying to sell you a bill of goods. If you can go work for another company and then maybe you can work a 40-hour work week. But if you work for Tesla, the minimum is really a 50-hour week and there are times when it’ll be 60- to 80-hour weeks.”
Act now “It’s not clear to state officials … what exactly Tesla is looking for from California, other than an offer it can use to wring more concessions from the other states competing for the factory,” the Los Angeles Times observed last month. The necessity to move fast is an old high pressure sales technique:

“I’ve got another buyer who is very interested if you don’t act now.” Musk keeps emphasizing speed: “Time is important here. The faster we can do this, the faster we can reduce carbon output and stave off a catastrophe.” Maybe. But he may also want to get his deal with a state from its leaders before opposition develops from residents, and Sandoval is pushing legislators for speed for the same reason. Two weeks ago a joint statement from organizations in all five states called on Tesla to “strike a fiscally responsible deal that is fair to residents and businesses alike.” Further, “But recently our states have been pitted into a race to the bottom from which no real winner may emerge.” In Las Vegas, columnist Steve Sebelius wrote, “Musk wants a fair deal, so let’s give him one. Tesla builds its plant, and pays all its taxes, just like (most) every other business. In exchange, the state and local jurisdictions protect it—if somebody breaks in, we’ll send the cops; if it catches on fire, we’ll send firefighters. If Tesla gets sued, the company can use our courts and business-friendly laws to defend itself. And northern Nevada’s outdoor beauty should make attracting workers easy. But the company shouldn’t get a single tax dollar, not while the state has the moral and legal obligation to educate children, take care of the mentally ill, build and maintain roads, and keep bad guys in prison.”

Sen. Reid said, “Elon Musk, I know him. I’ve spoken to him on many, many occasions, and he is a brilliant man. That’s probably an understatement. But he’s in it to make money, and he’s going to take this Tesla project where he can make the most money.” There has been talk of a working arrangement between Tesla and Apple, which has a big stake in battery production in the future. The two corporations have been in talks. Wired magazine has pointed out that Apple has such huge revenue reserves that in an agreement with Tesla, Apple could pay for the battery factory itself. Of course, that would require Tesla execs to be grownups, pay their own way, and pass up the chance to pay for the factory with public school or health care money from Nevada. Ω

“The essence of the music
is put into a b-boy when he is moving,” said James “Killa Kimo” Huliganga, one of the original members of Vibe Vultures, a Reno b-boy crew that formed in 2009. “Breaking is representative of how dance has evolved alongside music. It’s one of those art forms that never stays the same.” Vibe Vultures consists of six members, ranging in age from 20 to 35 years old, each with anywhere from 5 to 15 years of experience under their belt, all finding a commonality in their dedication to breaking and the culture surrounding it. While each member of Vibe Vultures brings a different skill to the table, each member possesses an instinctive ability to merge inventive musicality and refined ferocity within the scope of their breaking. Huliganga, Erwin “Rez 1” Tiangco, and Roberto “Tegroc” Rodriguez founded Vibe Vultures, and over the last five years, they’ve added Jose “775 Superhero” Peralez, Eddie “Bboy Touch” Torres, and most recently, Christian “Riddle” Camacho into the mix. Vibe Vulture’s dedication as a crew has afforded them several performance opportunities, from the recent Reno InstaGrammys event and Reno Artown, to onstage with big name hip-hop artists, like KRS-One and Taboo of the Black Eyed Peas.

SEPTEMBER 11, 2014
BY ANNA HART B-boying, short for break-boying or breaking, originated sometime during the 1970s. The term “breaking” alludes to its creation, signifying the dancing that would occur when a DJ would take the instrumental rhythmic breakdown sections, or “breaks” of a dance record and extend them, by looping it, giving a rhythmic basis for “breakers” to improvise with. The term “breakdance” is more familiar, but less accurate—and isn’t looked on favorably by the hip-hop community. While it seems like simple semantics, the word “breakdancing” has become a blanket name that inaptly places various styles of dance such as breaking, popping, locking and electric boogaloo under the same generalized label when it is publicized. One of the biggest reasons that the distinction between “breakdancing” and “breaking” is so hotly disputed is that it’s seen as an unwitting construct of mainstream media. It’s often thought of as a phrase that fails to address even the most basic terminology of the pioneers of the genre, let alone the world beyond the head spins and the catchy nicknames.
“There’s a little resentment in the b-boying community against the word ‘breakdancing’ because when hip-hop dance blew up in the ’80s, big business said, ‘Hey, how can we make money off of this?’ and that’s when the term ‘breakdancer’ was coined,” said Peralez. “Then everybody and their mom was a stinking breakdancer.” In an art form closely tied with a culture and a history, “breakdancing”, which overlooks those ties, is burdened with the stigma of ignorance—it could be compared to trying to write a novel before you’ve learned to speak. Nonetheless, the exposure to breaking in popular media has sparked its practice all over the world. Breaking originated in New York, but has made its way to the west coast, to Canada, and has even gained popularity in places like Brazil, the United Kingdom, Russia and South Korea. Currently, there are competitions all around the globe for b-boying, with “Battle of the Year,” “The Notorious IBE,” and “Chelles Battle Pro” to name a few. This international practice of the dance form shows the kind of atmosphere around b-boying that you’d find in the Reno scene today. “Through breaking we are able to unite people of different race, religion, and outlooks on life,” said Huliganga. “No matter who you are, we want to welcome you into our culture.”

Break ‘em off Vibe Vultures wields a strong appreciation for the origin of b-boying, yet their style shows the permeability of cultural boundaries. Besides the expected choice of using older hip-hop music with the characteristic drum-heavy “boom bap” of the late ’80s to early ’90s, Vibe Vultures also dances to jazz, funk and swing. There is even a place for the rock music of the ’70s, the ’60s, and all the way back to the ’50s. Although each genre inspires a different set of nuances, along with providing a different set of challenges, the entirety of Vibe Vultures adapt to each change with a chameleon poise. “We put sound into shapes, like the music flows in our body and tells us how to move,” said Tiangco. To keep up with advances in dance and music, Vibe Vultures fuses their technique with elements from contemporary dance, cumbia and house dancing. “It’s not just some dance trend people did back in the day,” said Rodriguez. “It’s still here, and it’s evolving.” B-boying is an all-body workout, but it’s a feat that requires more than just brute strength. It requires agility, precision, and above all, training to hone the necessary skills— because when you’re propelling your body around, there’s a fine line between artistry and injury. Some moves take years to completely master and generate the calculated spontaneity that gives Vibe Vultures their edge. “It is athletic, but it’s really based on passion and practice,” said Torres. “It’s based more on technique than strength.”
Back flips, whirling legs in the air, and heads spinning on the ground are arguably the most recognizable traits of breaking. But while these images might grab the most attention from the general public, it’s the appreciation for the intricate footwork, the aesthetic toprock, the distinctive freezes or poses as well as the balance between these and the acrobatic power moves that garner respect. Just like in its early years, the artistic, yet viscerally combative nature of b-boy still remains in the form of dance battles. Although Vibe Vultures does compete in b-boy battles against other crews from time to time in Nevada and California, they’ve focused more on growing the modest, virtually underground b-boy scene in Reno, by community outreach. One of the crew’s biggest goals is to show what their representation of breaking and the hip-hop culture can bring to the general public—namely to the youth. “Each one, teach one,” said Tiangco, echoing a hip-hop mantra. Through interacting with city residents in local events, teaching dance classes and encouraging others to join them in open dance sessions, Vibe Vultures works to help others find agency and integrity through artistic creation. “There are always those stories where people say, ‘Dancing saved my life,’ but I was never in danger,” said 20-year-old Camacho, the youngest of the crew. “I will say, though, that it has kept me healthy, and I’ve met a lot of great, kindhearted people in the b-boy community here. … They care for you like a family and that is motivation itself to stay out of trouble.” Ω

This 1864 American flag from Fort Ruby features the then new 36th star, representing Nevada.
Battle birth The 36th Star: Nevada’s Journey from Territory to State In the spring of 1864, Nevada Territory governor James Nye penned a letter to U.S. Secretary of State William Seward. by “In almost every town in the territory,” Georgia Fisher Nye wrote, “substantial improvements in every branch of industry are made, giving us quite the appearance of an old settled country. Business is becoming thoroughly systemized, and carries on with a vigor I never witnessed in any other locality. Obstacles that would seem insurmountable in many places, here seem to only quicken the zeal and energies of our people. They For more information, ply themselves to their removal with a will visit www.nevadaart. absolutely irresistible.” org. A month later, President Lincoln forwarded the letter to Congress. Things were going well. Nye’s report is so carefully and exquisitely handwritten that when you see it, you can almost picture him nodding a little as he writes, or pausing to dip his pen in ink. For a short time, the Nevada Museum of Art has the document displayed right
now as part of The 36th Star: Nevada’s Journey from Territory to State. The exhibition to honor the sesquicentennial runs through Nov. 2 at the NMA’s Wiegand Gallery, and includes a variety of artifacts and photographs that harken back to battleborn beginnings. The show’s headliner, though? Well, it’s bigger than Nevada. It’s the Emancipation Proclamation. Which is to say it’s straight from the National Archives in Washington, D.C., flown here in secret, and no-siree-not-areplica real. The rather hefty addition will be viewable from Oct. 30 to Nov. 2 —a short window designed to limit the priceless papers’ exposure to light. A copy will serve as a stand-in until then. Once the curtain comes off, a timer is set to clock the museum, hour by hour. “We do expect big crowds for this,” said NMA spokeswoman Amanda Horn.
As she spoke, a quiet sea of schoolchildren flowed through the exhibition’s three-room display. Several older couples milled about, too, studying colorful handmade flags and the historic Austin Flour Sack—a 50-pound bag that Austin, Nevada, resident Reuel Colt Gridley once schlepped around after losing a bet. His plight became a comical but gigantic fundraiser for Union soldiers’ medical care. Then someone tried to snap a photo in the next room, and two docents had a polite meltdown. All this before the proclamation’s arrival. The United States Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights are known as the three Charters of Freedom, but some consider the document that led to slavery’s abolishment “to be almost the fourth charter,” said National Archives senior registrar James Zeender.
DICE 2014
The papers rarely leave their home in D.C., and have only come to Nevada once, as part of the traveling Freedom Train exhibition that toured the country after World War II. When visitors stand in line to see the proclamation, “The tears flow,” Zeender said. “It’s that sense of awe.” A transcription of Nevada’s constitution, which made for a behemoth telegram to Abraham Lincoln, is also at the museum, alongside a variety of curious and important artifacts. And for the first time ever, famed Civil War photographer Timothy O’Sullivan’s battlefield images are sharing wall space with his pictures of a fledgling Nevada. Made for documentation purposes during an early land survey, they are crisp, unadorned, and familiar-looking in a way that shouldn’t be surprising, but still is. After all, 150 years isn’t much time, geographically speaking. “Many of these [items] haven’t been displayed in the state before, ever,” Horn said of the exhibition, “and certainly not in this capacity.” Ω

Sweet talk Dorinda’s Chocolates 727 Riverside Drive, 432-2024 When she was just 12 years old, Dorinda Vance mastered the art of making chocolatecovered cherries. Now her childhood by Dave Preston passion has become her life-long dream. After studying and learning the science behind chocolate at E’cole Chocolat, a chocolate-making program, and gaining experience in hands-on courses at Berry Callebaut, a chocolate academy in Chicago, she now holds the title of professional chocolatier.

Lead chocolatier Steven Dake coats apples in chocolate, one of Dorinda’s seasonal treats.
She handcrafts everything. Her cherries are Maraschino cherries (five for $10) rolled in butter cream and dipped in Belgian Chocolate. This cocktail condiment never tasted so good with a texture that congeals perfectly with the chocolate—four chomps and its goodness pleases your palate and delights your stomach. Sea salt caramel truffle—every piece of candy is about $1.80—is an awarding-winning bite. Honey undertones pop from this smooth, light and non-sticky caramel. A light layer of Malden sea salt tops the Valrhona dark chocolate. Valrhona is French luxury chocolate manufacturer based in the small town in Hermitage, a wine-growing district near Lyon—this is Vance’s source of dark, milk, white and dolce chocolate. The sea salt balances the sweetness of the honey caramel with a saltier tang. “Mint Melt Away” (12 for $22), creamy and smooth, is made of milk chocolate and peppermint oil, creating a melt-in-your-mouth experience—no chewing required. This is a closeyour-eyes-and-smile experience. Then there’s the “Hub Espresso Truffle” (12 for $22) if you want a caffeine

fix, look no further. Made of dark chocolate and an Ethiopian roast espresso bean provided by Hub Coffee Roasters right next door. The flavor is delicate in the “Marzipan Flowers” (12 for $22). These morsels are made of almond paste, dipped in dark chocolate, and topped with a pistachio. Marzipan is a confection consisting primarily of sugar or honey and almond meal. This is an elegant masterpiece. My next pleasure punishment was a “Naked Truffle” (12 for $22), 70 percent dark chocolate ganache, dipped in 70 percent dark chocolate. The “Kraken” (12 for $22) is a crunchy yet smooth European-style chocolate that envelops a hazelnut praline biscotti crunch. It melts in your mouth on the first bite, complementing the light snap of the biscotti. Texture that teases the taste buds with divine goodness. The “Toasty Blonde” (12 for $22) is a charismatic heart-shaped candy bite is made of dark chocolate and dolce chocolate ganache. It has a sweet, creamy, milky caramel flavor. Lemon truffles (12 for $22) made of real lemon juice and zest, with a French white satin chocolate shell, blasted my taste buds with citrus—the sweetest pucker ever. And then there are chocolate-covered pretzels, English butter toffee, and mountains of pecans and peanut butter cups, and, this time of year, fresh pumpkin truffles and caramel apples extraordinaire. Do you remember the first time you had a really good piece of chocolate? I mean the good stuff. Not the sort you steal from your kid’s Halloween stash. I’m talking about the kind of chocolate that melts slowly on your tongue, and tastes like berries or citrus, maybe even with a hint of coffee at the end. Tasting chocolate has become an art form, a lot like tasting wine and cheese. There are books, classes and societies all devoted to the art of tasting chocolate. Learning to distinguish between candy chocolate and fine chocolate isn’t as hard as you might think, but it does involve all five senses, and by the time you had this adventure, you’ll have developed a sixth sense for understanding, appreciating and tasting chocolate. Dorinda’s is the place for this memorable, mouth-watering enlightenment. Ω

Hunka burning crap The Identical Elvis fans know that he had an identical twin brother, Jesse, delivered stillborn about half an hour before his arrival. For over 50 years, the question “What would’ve happened if Elvis’ twin brother had lived?” has been tossed around. The Identical, one of those “faith-based” movies like God’s Not Dead, Heaven is For Real, and Jesus Loved Jellybeans, is a take on by the surviving Elvis twin premise, replacing Bob Grimm Elvis and Jesse Presley with the fictional Ryan Wade and Drexel Hemsley, both played by bgrimm@ newsreview.c om real-life Elvis impersonator Blake Rayne. Obviously, getting the rights to Elvis music would cost more than three new Cadillacs, so the producers of this dreck wrote some crap Elvis copycat music and a shameless script that stars Elvis without really starring Elvis.

I would encourage the likes of Lisa Marie Presley to sue the makers of this movie for obviously stealing her dad’s likeness, but then she would have to actually see this movie, and I wouldn’t wish that fate on anyone. Somehow, this aberration attracted the likes of Ray Liotta, Ashley Judd, Seth Green and Joe Pantoliano to star in it. It’s bad. It’s so bad, one viewing could cause septic shock due to cinematic shit entering your bloodstream through the eyes and ears. The movie starts with Rayne as Drexel, the brother who has grown up to be rich like Elvis, sitting in his limo and seeing a vision of people picking cotton in a Depression-era field out his window. It then flashes back to that time when a couple decides to give up one of their twin newborn boys because they can’t afford the little brat. That boy, Ryan, is raised by a preacher and his wife (Liotta and Judd) with a big Jesus influence and a push toward making him a
SEPTEMBER 11, 2014
pastor. The film is peppered with scenes of Liotta delivering fire and brimstone sermons, sermons that get funnier and funnier as his character ages under prosthetic makeup. Ryan loves Jesus, but he’s got rock ’n’ roll in his bones, evidenced by his sweet dance moves when he visits an evil honky tonk bar. He dabbles in music on the side, writing Elvis-like songs with his hip drummer friend (Green, a long way from Robot Chicken). Ryan has no knowledge of his famous brother due to some weird pact Liotta’s character made with his dad to not mention his brother until both his birth parents were dead. So, while one brother grows up to be Elvislike, living in a house called Dreamland and making bad surf movies, the other is pseudoElvis like, joining the Army and singing in honky tonk bars. It’s worth noting that Rayne was 40 years old when he filmed this movie, a movie that asks him to be in his teens for a good hunk of its running time. Rayne does look and sound like Elvis, but he’s missing some of that Presley bravado. Actually, he’s missing all of that Presley bravado. Actually, this guy has no business being up on a movie screen playing a character that is supposed to parallel Elvis Presley. His act should be reserved for state fairs and cheap casinos only. The whole thing is just bizarre beyond words, and made even weirder by the fact that this is a movie the producers want church groups to attend. It’s a PG film, but the only thing that makes the movie PG is when Rayne’s precocious Ryan refuses beer at a bar where “reefer” is being smoked. I watched this movie in complete disbelief, totally aghast, mouth agape, and laughing out loud at its wretchedness while sitting in a completely empty movie theater. The music, with such wannabe hits as “Boogie Woogie Rock and Roll” and “Sunrise Surfin’” is inexcusably awful, and the “Jesus Loves You” undertones are the equivalent of somebody walking up and smashing you in the face with a Bible and then shoving its pages down your throat while you are lying on the ground unconscious and bleeding. So, this was supposed to be the movie that made Blake Rayne a household name. It succeeds in that, from now on, when my dog vomits on the household carpet I will refer to it as “Blake Rayne-ing.” Ω

Boyhood
A lot can go wrong when you film a movie on and off for more than 12 years with the cast aging naturally. Cast members could die, the director could lose his drive and quit, etc. Writer-director Richard Linklater’s cinematic undertaking doesn’t have the ring of experimental or stunt filmmaking about it. It’s just a great looking, terrifically acted, tremendously moving film. It’s an amazing thing to see young Mason (Ellar Coltrane, who we first see set to the joyous strains of Coldplay’s “Yellow” on the soundtrack) go from a wide-eyed 5-year-old boy staring at the sky to an 18-year-old college student dealing with girls and big life decisions. It’s equally fascinating to watch Ethan Hawke, playing Mason’s father, go from Training Day Hawke to The Purge Hawke in the course of three hours. We also see Linklater’s daughter Lorelei playing Samantha, Mason’s sister, and Patricia Arquette as Mom, putting in her best performance since she graced the screen as Alabama in True Romance. All of the performers go through beautiful and awkward stages, aging before our eyes without the aid of special effects makeup. This is a movie that will only be made once. Nobody will ever pull anything like this off again. Linklater has made a permanent, monumental mark on cinematic history.

The Giver
In a post-apocalyptic society, humans are being drugged into a state where they feel no emotion, are completely submissive and see no colors. When they hit their late teens, they are assigned their job for the rest of their life. Everybody’s equal, there is no war, all aspects of life are predestined. Lois Lowry’s novel had an interesting premise, but Phillip Noyce’s film simply feels and looks wrong. For starters, it comes off as a rip-off of Pleasantville, with the film slowly changing from black and white to color, while elements of the dystopian society come off like a dated Disney ride. As for the casting, it’s good to see the likes of Jeff Bridges and Meryl Streep on hand in pivotal roles, but the young leads (Brenton Thwaites and Odeya Rush) seem like they are overreaching. Taylor Swift shows up for a couple of minutes in a cameo, a cameo that is being marketed as a starring role and is mighty misleading for her fan base. Bridges is at least interesting as an old wise man storing all memories of past societies in his head. He’s tasked with passing his memories on to young Jonas (Thwaites), as if that isn’t going to cause some sort of problem. Noyce gives us some pretty pictures and a halfway decent cast, and basically doesn’t know what to do with it.

Guardians of the Galaxy
This is a goofy, dazzling, often hilarious convergence of inspired nuttiness. You’ll probably hear comparisons to the original Star Wars, The Fifth Element and The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai, and all of those comparisons would be plausible. It’s a blessedly new and crazy direction for the Marvel universe, and director James Gunn (Super, Slither) has taken a huge step towards the A-list. Also taking a giant leap toward the upper echelon of Hollywood royalty is Chris Pratt, who mixes great charm, rugged action hero bravado and premium comic timing as Peter Quill, a.k.a. Star-Lord. After a prologue that shows the Earthly origins of his character, Pratt sets the tone for the movie during the opening credits, grooving to his cassette-playing Sony Walkman on an alien planet and using squirrelly little critters as stand-in microphones. After unknowingly stealing a relic that could have the power to take down the entire universe, Quill finds himself in serious trouble. Events lead to his joining forces with a genetically enhanced Raccoon named Rocket (voice of Bradley Cooper), a gigantic tree person thing named Groot (voice of Vin Diesel), an angry, muscle-bound alien named Drax (Dave Bautista) and an ass-kicking green woman named Gamora (Zoe Saldana). Together, they become the Guardians of the Galaxy, an unlikely troupe of mischievous outcasts that plays like the Avengers meets the Marx Brothers. The cast, buoyed by a spirited script co-written by Gunn, keeps things zippy and always funny. Visually, the movie is a tremendous feat of special and makeup effects.

Let’s Be Cops
A couple of 30-something buddies (Jake Johnson, Damon Wayans, Jr.), bored with their humdrum lives, dress up as cops for a masquerade party and discover that things are pretty cool when people think you are the law.
So they take the masquerade beyond the party and start chasing criminals and busting perps. Wayans, Jr., is the spitting image of his dad in every way, and it feels like this is a movie starring his dad after he’s time traveled from the past into the present for the shoot. Johnson, who has been making a name for himself in smart indie comedies (Safety Not Guaranteed, Drinking Buddies) tries to go big time with this vehicle, and fails miserably. The premise is insulting—not to mention a little dangerous—and it’s delivered with stale humor and bad performances all around. Director and co-writer Luke Greenfield (The Girl Next Door) has a made a movie more ugly than funny, and makes Johnson and Wayans, Jr., two funny guys, look like amateurs.

The November Man
Pierce Brosnan stars as Devereaux, a former CIA guy who winds up in places like Russia shooting people like nobody’s business and getting himself mixed up in their politics. For starters, there’s no way any American would get away with the crazy crap this guy does in this film. He’d get squashed like a bug the second he stepped out of his hotel room. The film is rife with spy movie clichés. Devereaux has a wife and child who create “complications,” he has a former trainee he shepherded (Luke Bracey) on his trail, along with a couple of CIA heads of questionable character (Will Patton and Bill Smitrovich) messing with him. Yes, there is also the mysterious damsel in distress (Olga Kurylenko) who Devereaux must protect while dealing with his own serious drinking problem. It’s your basic “who’s the real bad guy?” film, with everybody doing something relatively nasty at one time or another to keep things confusing. Brosnan’s character offs a lot of people, and even cuts an innocent woman’s femoral artery to make a dramatic point. It’s all nonsense, directed poorly by Roger Donaldson, who also directed Brosnan in the junky Dante’s Peak.

The One I Love
A husband and wife (Mark Duplass and Elisabeth Moss) struggling in their relationship visit a retreat on the advice of their therapist (Ted Danson), and they make a startling discovery in one of the guest houses. That discovery results in something that is beautifully clever in addressing the problems that plague many relationships, while also playing like a really cool Twilight Zone episode. The big twist results in one of the better romantic comedies in years, one with a big brain and strong insight. Calling this a romantic comedy is almost an insult, but it has romance and it is funny, so I suppose it falls into that particular genre. I do think it’s a movie that many therapists will hate, because it could save some couples a bunch of money. It’s an eye-opener, for sure. Duplass is making a name for himself as an understated, offbeat romantic comedy lead. He’s actually the star of another of the more recent great romantic comedies, Safety Not Guaranteed. Moss, star of TV’s Mad Men, has a movie career spanning over two decades, but The One I Love makes it feel like she’s just arriving. (Available on VOD, Amazon.com and iTunes during a limited theatrical run.)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Legions of Michael Bay haters have been jumping all over this Turtles reboot before it even hit the screen. It’s actually not a Michael Bay film; he only served as producer on this one. Jonathan Liebesman (Wrath of the Titans, Battle Los Angeles) is the director here, and he’s put something together that is far more coherent than the latest Bay-helmed Transformers movie. This is not to say that the movie is any good, because it actually isn’t, but it is markedly better than most of Bay’s output. Megan Fox plays April, a wannabe reporter who stumbles upon a vigilante force protecting Manhattan from an evil terrorist group. The vigilantes turn out to be the infamous turtles. The turtles, the result of scientific experiments, were raised in the sewers by a rat, and now they are ready to rise above the street surface and kick some ass. The film has some good moments, and the turtles eat some pizza and get some laughs. Fox is a bit of a bore in the central human role, Will Arnett is virtually wasted as her cameraman, and I’m sick and tired of William Fichtner playing bad guys. The special effects are OK, but the story offers nothing special. A sequel is already being prepared. A director with a better sense of wonder, and a better sense of humor, could do the franchise well.
Heads ringin’ Keyringz Behind a white picket fence on a flower-lined street off of Lakeside is the house that serves as a meeting ground, by Kent Irwin studio and office for rap group Keyringz. “We just trying to put the streets behind us,” said member Myke Nyte. “Let me put it this way,” said fellow member JBond. “If the streets was a S&P 500 Company, I’d be a millionaire right now.” Photo/Kent IrwIn
These guys actually say they're "trying to put the streets behind us," but here they are in the middle of one. Keyringz is JBond, Myke Nyte and 24K.
Nyte became a father at 18. He says fatherhood has focused him, turning him away from the macho gangster lifestyle toward the goal of being a better businessman for his family. JBond, also a family man, just wants to put his old ways behind him. The group’s original name, Keyrings, is a portmanteau that stood for Key Revolutions and Gangster Shit. The self-described high-energy rap group soon decided to change the name to a friendlier arrangement—Keyringz—which stands for Key Riders and International Gz. The name is also a metaphor for their outlook on the world, for seizing opportunities when they present themselves. “Whatever door there is, I’m gonna unlock it, bro,” Nyte said. Nyte, originally from the Phillipines, met JBond, who comes from a Puerto Rican family, as an 11-year old. The two immediately struck a bond over break dancing, and pursued it as a way to elevate themselves above their hardships. JBond’s mother was a nurse who worked late nights, struggling to support the family.
Keyringz will perform at the Summer Jam 2014 at the reno events Center, 400 n. Center St., on Sept. 20. Doors at 5:30 p.m. For more information, visit keyringzmusic. com.

“I didn’t have to look for trouble as a kid, trouble came to me,” said Nyte. “I don’t idealize violence.” Nyte discovered his ability to rap in an unlikely place. The Moana Pool used to host rap battles back in '96. There, Nyte was able to hone his abilities in a competitive way. He likens the experience to boxing, a skill that needs a workout. He admits he was often put in his place by more experienced rappers, but he believes defeat only strengthened his resolve. “It’s not how you fall, it’s how you rise,” he said. New friends Nyte and JBond fell heavily into rap, following in the footsteps of their idols: Tupac Shakur, Bone Thugz and Dr. Dre. Third Keyringz member 24K is the youngest member of the group, joining much later. He jokes that while his fellow band members present the best raps, he wraps the best presents. Coming from a Hawaiian background, 24K said he picked up some of his courage by rap battling himself in the bathroom mirror as a kid. Now, he practices his flow every day, even taking a moment in the middle of our interview to step aside and work on his bars. The members of Keyringz say that Reno is what made and formed them, but they aspire to be more than just a local act. A school counselor with connections in Los Angeles put together Nyte and JBond’s first concert at age 13. More than a decade later, they became winners of the Reno Hip Hop Awards for Best Album Artwork and Best Music Video. Though the members of Keyringz claim to stay away from violent behavior, their persona in their music videos is very much in line with hip hop’s penchant for guns, girls and money. But the group insists that they are just playing parts, like characters in an action movie. JBond’s name is, after all, a reference to the iconic spy James Bond. Keyringz is focused on making Hollywoodstyle videos. “Gimme a script, and I’ll play it,” Nyte said. “Keyringz ain’t gonna stop till we hit the top,” JBond said. “We gonna break the hinges of the door.” Ω

SEPTEMBER 11, 2014
Whoa is me Last year, after I split up with my girlfriend, the law firm I worked for went belly up. I haven’t been on a date all year. Friends try to set me up, and I keep giving excuses for why I can’t go, but I’ve totally lost my nerve. I’d like to change that. Money isn’t the issue. I work here and there and still have severance pay left. But despite interviewing heavily, I have yet to land a full-time gig and feel kind of like a failure, and I don’t want to discuss that on dates. After a series of big setbacks, it’s understandable that you’d feel most comfortable hiding under the bed. Unfortunately, you won’t get a whole lot of dates there unless you are sexually attracted to mice. You are unlikely to find your lost nerve under there, perhaps hiding from creditors. But, like many people, where you go wrong is in thinking that you need to find your nerve to take action. You don’t. You just need to decide that being afraid to do something isn’t a good enough reason to avoid doing it. Of course, you’ll do better on dates if you don’t arrive feeling like a cow patty in nice shoes. The good news is you can give yourself a boost pretty easily. A growing body of research finds that “walking the walk,” just making the body movements of the large and in charge, is actually transformative. For example, social psychologist Dana Carney had both men and women pose for just two minutes like fat-cat executives—feet on desk, hands behind head. These simple acts raised their testosterone, the dominance hormone, and made them more willing to take risks. In other words, when you have a date, you need to get to the place early and do a little bathroom-stall yoga.
Ridiculous as it seems, a little powerbroker-cise should help you feel and act like your peer group is great white sharks instead of small brown smudges. And though your inclination is probably to shove all your negative thoughts about your job loss in some mental drawer, research by clinical psychologist James J. Gross finds that this tends to backfire, making you feel worse. Instead, try “cognitive reappraisal”—reframing your job loss so it works better for your mojo. This would just take emphasizing to yourself what you already know—that you’re jobless because of others’ bad business decisions and a tough economy. When you’re on the date, don’t worry about selling yourself. We tend to believe we can talk people into liking us, but we’re actually more likely to listen them into it. And by listen, I mean listening from the gut, not just nodding your head while trying to remember whether you left a load in the washing machine. Obviously, the easiest way for you to feel better is to start working again, which would give you a sense of purpose. You don’t have to wait for somebody to hire you. Consider donating at least a few hours a week to provide free legal counsel to people in need. Happiness with staying power comes from pursuing meaning. Ω

World Leading Expert Unveils Exciting News for People with Memory Loss
by rob brezsny
ARIES (March 21-April 19): In the 2000 film
Cast Away, Tom Hanks plays an American FedEx executive who is stranded alone on a remote Pacific island after he survives a plane crash. A few items from the plane wash up on shore, including a volleyball. He draws a face on it and names it “Wilson,” creating a companion who becomes his confidant for the next four years. I’d love to see you enlist an ally like Wilson in the coming week, Aries. There are some deep, messy, beautiful mysteries you need to talk about. At least for now, the only listener capable of drawing them out of you in the proper spirit might be a compassionate inanimate object that won’t judge you or interrupt you.
JFK Award Winner, Dr. Meir Shinitsky Uncovers Shocking New Nutrient that Restores Mental Clarity, Improves Focus and Impaired Memory By Steven Wuzubia Health Correspondent; Clearwater, Florida: Dr. Meir Shinitzky, Ph.D., is a former visiting professor at Duke University, recipient of the prestigious J.F. Kennedy Prize and author of more than 200 international scientific papers on human body cells. But now he’s come up with what the medical world considers his greatest accomplishment-- A vital compound. so powerful, it’s reported to repair… even regrow damaged brain cells. In layman’s terms -- Bring back your memory power. And leave you feeling more focused and clear-headed than you have in years! Dr. Shinitsky explains this phenomenon in simple terms; “Science has shown when your brain nutrient levels drop, you can start to experience memory problems and overall mental fatigue. Your ability to concentrate and stay focused becomes compromised. And gradually, a “mental fog” sets in. It can damage every aspect of your life”. Not only do brain cells die but they become dysfunctional as if they begin to fade away as we age. This affects our ability to have mental clarity and focus and impacts our ability to remember things that were easy for us to do in our 20’s and 30’s.
Why Now, Why So Fuzzy?
Scientists think the biggest cause of brain deterioration in older people is the decreased functioning of membranes and molecules that surround the brain cells. These really are the transmitters that connect the tissues or the brain cells to one another that help us with our sharp memory, clear thinking and mental focus, even our powers to reason well. “When we are in our 20’s” according to Dr. Shinitzky “our body produces key substances like phosphatidylserine and phosphatidic acid” ….unfortunately they are believed to be critical essential nutrients that just fade away with age, much like our memories often do leading to further mental deterioration. As we get older it becomes more frustrating as there is little comfort when you forget names… misplace your keys... or just feel “a little confused”. And even though your foggy memory gets laughed off as just another “senior moment”, it’s not very funny when it keeps happening to you.
The Missing Link is Found and Tested
It’s hard to pronounce, but it appears from the astounding clinical research that this one vital nutrient phosphatidylserine (PS) can really make a huge difference. 17 different double blind studies with placebo controlled groups have been involved in the clinical research of PS with patients between the ages of 55-80. Periodically, researchers gave these patients memory and cognitive tests and the results were simply amazing: 1) PS patients outperformed placebo patients in All 5 Tests - 100% Success Rate 2) After only 45 days there was a measurable improvement in mental function, after 90 days, amazing improvement! The group taking PS not only enjoyed sharper memory, but they were also more upbeat and remarkably more happy. In contrast, the moods of the individuals who took the placebo remained unaffected….no mental or mood improvement at all.
Unblock Your Brain
This incredible PS nutrient feeds your brain the vital nutrient it needs to stay healthy... PS now has the attention of some of the world’s most
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): As far as I
know, there has been only one battleship in history that was named after a poet. A hundred years ago, the Italian navy manufactured a dreadnought with triple-gun turrets and called it Dante Alighieri, after the medieval genius who wrote The Divine Comedy. Other than that, most warships have been more likely to receive names like Invincible, Vengeance, Hercules or Colossus. But it would be fine if you drew some inspiration from the battleship Dante Alighieri in the coming weeks. I think you will benefit from bringing a lyrical spirit and soulful passion to your expression of the warrior archetype.
a 7-Eleven convenience store and order a Double Big Gulp drink, you must be prepared to absorb 40 teaspoons of sugar. But what will be an even greater challenge to your body is the sheer amount of fluid you will have to digest: 50 ounces. The fact is, your stomach can’t easily accommodate more than 32 ounces at a time. It’s true that if you sip the Double Big Gulp very slowly—like for a period of three-and-a-half hours—the strain on your system will be less. But after the first half hour, as the beverage warms up, its taste will decline steeply. Everything I’ve just said should serve as a useful metaphor for you in the coming week. Even if you are very sure that the stuff you want to introduce into your life is healthier for you than a Double Big Gulp, don’t get more of it than you can comfortably hold.

My Memory Was Starting to Fail Me.
I would forget all kinds of things and something that I just said earlier in the day would completely slip my mind. My memory was getting pretty unreliable and I was worried. I thought I’d better do something now. I read about Lipogen and wanted to try it. It’s great! I have actual recall now, which is super. Thanks Lipogen for giving me my memory back. It’s given me back selfconfidence and self-esteem. I would not trust my memory without it.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you sur-
render to the passive part of your personality, you will be whipped around by mood swings in the coming days. You will hem and haw, snivel and procrastinate, communicate ineptly, and be confused about what you really feel. If, on the other hand, you animate the proactive side of your personality, you are likely to correct sloppy arrangements that have kept you off-balance. You will heal rifts and come up with bright ideas about how to get the help you need. It’s also quite possible you will strike a blow for justice and equality, and finally get the fair share you were cheated out of in the past.
- Ethel Macagnoney Earth-shaking Science
Published, clinical reports show replenishing your body’s natural supply of Phosphatidylserine, not only helps sharpen your memory and concentration— but also helps “perk you up” and put you in a better mood. PS as it turns out also helps to reduce everyday stress and elevate your mood by lowering your body’s production of the hormone cortisol. When cortisol levels are too high for too long you experience fatigue, bad moods and weakness. This drug-free brainboosting formula enters your bloodstream fast (in as little as thirty minutes). Officially Reviewed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Lipogen PS Plus is the ONLY Health Supplement that has a “Qualified Health Claim for both Cognitive Dysfunction and Dementia”.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In his 1982 martial
arts film Dragon Lord, Jackie Chan experimented with more complex stunts than he had tried in his previous films. The choreography was elaborate and intricate. In one famous sequence, he had to do 2,900 takes of a single fight sequence to get the footage he wanted. That’s the kind of focused attention and commitment to detail I recommend to you in the coming weeks, Leo—especially if you are learning new tricks and attempting novel approaches.

Balmat and Michel Paccard were the first explorers to reach the top of 15,781-foot Mont Blanc on the French-Italian border. They were hailed as heroes. One observer wrote that the ascent was “an astounding achievement of courage and determination, one of the greatest in the annals of mountaineering. It was accomplished by men who were not only on unexplored ground but on a route that all the guides believed impossible.” And yet today, 228 years later, the climb is considered relatively easy for anyone who’s reasonably prepared. In a typical year, 20,000 people make it to the summit. Why am I bringing this to your attention? Because I suspect that you are beginning to master a skill that will initially require you to be like Balmat and Paccard, but will eventually be almost routine.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Those who
invoke the old metaphor about the caterpillar that transforms into the butterfly often omit an important detail: the graceful winged creature is helpless and weak when it first wriggles free of its chrysalis. For a while, it’s not ready to take up its full destiny. As you get ready for your own metamorphosis, Libra, keep that in mind. Have plans to lay low and be self-protective in the days following your emergence into your new form. Don’t try to do loop-theloops right away.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): According to
my analysis of the astrological omens, you Scorpios are currently the sign of the zodiac that is least likely to be clumsy, vulgar, awkward or prone to dumb mistakes. On the other hand, you are the most likely to derisively accuse others of being clumsy, vulgar, awkward or prone to dumb mistakes. I recommend that you resist that temptation, however. In the coming week, it is in your selfish interests to be especially tactful and diplomatic. Forgive and quietly adjust for everyone’s mistakes. Don’t call undue attention to them or make them worse. Continue to build your likeability and fine-tune your support system.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have cosmic permission to be bigger than life and wilder than sin. You have a poetic license to be more wise than clever. And you should feel free to laugh longer than might seem polite and make no apologies as you spill drinks while telling your brash stories. This phase of your astrological cycle does not require you to rein yourself in or tone yourself down or be a well-behaved model citizen. In fact, I think it will be best for everyone concerned if you experiment with benevolent mischief and unpredictable healing and ingenious gambles.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): For
over 2,000 years, Chinese astronomers have understood the science of eclipses. And yet as late as the 1800s, sailors in the Chinese navy shot cannonballs in the direction of lunar eclipses, hoping to chase away the dragons they imagined were devouring the moon. I have a theory that there’s a similar discrepancy in your psyche, Capricorn. A fearful part of you has an irrational fantasy that a wiser part of you knows is a delusion. So how can we arrange for the wiser part to gain ascendancy? There’s an urgent need for you to stop wasting time and energy by indulging in that mistaken perspective.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Squirrels
don’t have a perfect memory of where they bury their nuts. They mean to go back and dig them all up later, but they lose track of many. Sometimes trees sprout from those forgotten nuts. It’s conceivable that on occasion a squirrel may climb a tree it planted years earlier. I see this as a useful metaphor for you to meditate on in the coming weeks. You are on the verge of encountering grown-up versions of seeds you sowed once upon a time and then forgot about.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): On a Ger-
man TV show, martial artist Jackie Chan performed a tough trick. While holding a raw egg in his right hand, he used that hand to smash through three separate sets of four concrete blocks. When he was finished, the egg was still intact. I see your next task as having some resemblances to that feat, Pisces. You must remain relaxed, protective and even tender as you destroy an obstruction that has been holding you back. Can you maintain this dual perspective long enough to complete the job? I think you can.

Who is he?
How has it worked out? I don’t think of Hollywood as being Libertarian in the least. I see it as more liberal or in some cases, extremely conservastive in some ways. Libertarian doesn’t seem to fit for me.
Kristoffer Polaha The movie Atlas Shrugged: Who is John Galt? opens Friday in Reno at the Century Summit Sierra. It stars a former Renoite, Kristoffer Polaha.
You have a new movie coming out. Tell me about it. My new movie is Atlas Shrugged Part 3, Who is John Galt?, and I am playing John Galt.
So you have a Reno connection, why don’t you tell me a little about that. My Reno connection is that I was born and raised here in Reno, Nevada. My mom and dad still live there. My dad is a local judge, and yeah, I’m home-grown, man.
You’ve had good success. What kind of movies—I think you’ve done more TV—have you done? I’ve been working as a professional actor for the past 13 years now. I’m working on my seventh television show right now, which is a show called Backstrom for Fox. It stars Rainn Wilson who is late from The Office and Dennis Haysbert, who you might know as the Allstate guy, but more importantly as the president in 24. So it’s great it’s a fun show. I’ve done a lot of television and then I just started getting into movies. Last year, I was in a show called Devil’s Knot which was with Colin Firth and Reese Witherspoon about the West Memphis 3, directed by Atom Egoyan who’s a pretty
amazing, Oscar-winning director. That was a really intersting experience because it was about an actual case that took place in West Memphis ... do you know this story? About the three guys who were accused of murder.
Sure I do. And Johnny Depp and Eddie Vetter and all these people focused in and they finally pled the Alferd Plea, and they’re all out now, and they’re all free. So that was a really cool movie to be a part of. And now I’ve done Atlas Shrugged Part 3, Who is John Galt? which is very interesting because it’s tied intrinsically to the libertarian movement, so it has become this very interesting political agenda movie. As an actor, I’m not really...you know what I mean, it’s been interesting to sort of see how that’s all worked out.
Dr. Van Dyke at the podium In the last year, what lessons of life have we Amurricans learned courtesy of some of our favorite AHOTHEWs? (AssHoles Of The Week). Well, from Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson, we learned that one should be tolerant of all sexual persuasions (although Phil, if you actually read his comments in GQ, really wasn’t that horrible. The ole Head Duck sorta got hosed, but that’s another column for another time). From Paula Deen and Riley Cooper, we learned that white people should really keep it together with their N-bombs. From Richie Incognito, we learned that you shouldn’t be a dick or a bully. From Donald Sterling, we learned that you shouldn’t be a bigot. And from Ray Rice, we learned that you shouldn’t slug your woman. Well, hell, no wonder I’m bored into a state of semi-permanent quasi-somnambulism. I learned all this stuff about 50 damned years ago! And the beat goes on ... la dee da dee da, la dee da dee dee ... OPINION

It doesn’t. And I didn’t really even understand who the Libertarians were until I actually did this movie. I think that the great thing about Hollywood is that everything is permissible in this town, and everyone has their voice and so the producers--it was sort of financially backed by private funders, and they just wanted to make this movie, and they had the rights for a while, and it’s three installments, and it’s just about getting the message out. So it’s somebody who loves the book. The producer is a man named John Aglialoro, he and his wife just love the book and they love Ayn Rand, and they love Objectivism, and they just wanted to make these movies. Now the bigger thing for me, when it comes to Ayn Rand is the fact that she’s an athiest, and if anyone knows me, they know I’m a Chriatian, which also someting in Hollywood that’s you knwo ... a little more interesting than being Libertarian. But again, as an actor, you do jobs, I’m going to play people that I have nothing in common with, and that’s a part of the job. It’s the fun of the job. Obviously to play John Galt is a huge honor and a fun thing because he’s like a messiah figure for Objectivists. At the premier, people were like “You are John Galt; how does that feel?” I’m like, “It feels fine, it feels good.” But it doesn’t caerry the same kind of weight for me that it does for a lot of people.

• Speaking of old Sonny and Cher songs, an old friend putting together a class schedule for the community education program at Truckee Meadows Community College gave me a buzz a couple of months ago and said, “Hey, you know I’ve got a music section here with all kinds of classes about Xylophone 101 and Get Krazy With Your Kooky Kongas but there is nobody—I mean, nobody—teaching any kind of rock history whatsoever, and I know you’re just out there in the desert pickin’ and flickin’ and why don’t you get off your lazy no ’count ass and give me an effort of some kind waddya say?” As it turned out, his timing was pretty good. I’d been feeling the jones to get up in front of people and spout off about something. And since I’ve been in the throes of nostalgia for that rock music that burst forth in a dazzling kaleidoscopic mess in the mid-’60s, I came up with a class called “Welcome to |
RECYCLE
|
Wonderland—The Golden Age of Psychedelia.” This will be a loving and appreciative retrospective of an extraordinary era, an era that saw a truly remarkable explosion of creativity and, well, just a whole bunch of great music that almost 50 years later still sounds pretty damned terrific. Wanna be in the class? It’ll be on Wednesday nights, 7-8:30, at the TMCC Meadowood Center across from Sears at 5270 Neil Road. I would say “Hurry! Class space is filling fast!” but it’s not. There’s still plenty of room. First, go to washoecommunityed.org. Then click Register Now. Then Music classes. You’ll find W2W in there. Cost is $49. And yes, I’ll try to make it fun, informative and illuminating for those who lived through it and also for those who wanna learn about it.
