The Children’s Cabinet has been providing safe place crisis interventions and outreach services for more than a decade, working with other local community programs to help foster children. Case workers here aim to create a facility that “feels more like a family home than an institution” because many kids at risk today may be a growing concern in the local areas. “At any given time, there are hundreds of youth in Washoe County who are homeless and unaccompanied by an adult. They are living on the streets, by the river, at a friends’ house, or in a motel,” said Kathleen Sandoval, Children’s Cabinet Director of Operations and First Lady of Nevada. “There are hundreds of other teens who need help CARSON CITY — Rep. Jason Frierson made history Monday by becoming Nevada’s first black Assembly Speaker as the state’s 63 lawmakers opened their legislative session focusing on issues ranging from the state budget to the future of an unimplemented law that would give parents state funding to help pay for private school. Frierson, D-Las Vegas, was elected to lead the Legislature’s lower chamber as lawmakers started work in the session that lasts until June 5. It also marked the first time that both the state Assembly and Senate will be led at the same time by black legislators. Senate Majority Leader Aaron Ford, D-Las Vegas, was also officially elected to head his chamber on Monday. The two leaders were chosen by their Democratic peers after last November’s election, when voters elected a majority of Democrats to the Legislature and swung control from the previously Republican dominated Assembly and Senate. Democrats hold an 11-9-1 majority in the 21-member state Senate, and a 27-15 majority in the 42-member Assembly.

These newly designed housing structures will provide a safe, transitional environment for teens and young adults, ages 12 to 24 seeking emergency safety and housing throughout Washoe County. Many of these young residents come from broken homes and troubled families. But now they will benefit from a safe and stable living environment as they gain independence, self-esteem and responsibility before safely reconnecting with family members.

The Sparks Police Department says the collision was believed to have been alcohol-related. Authorities say 22-year-old Jesus Rojo-Perez drove his speeding truck through a stop sign and crashed into a small car driven by a 28-year-old, who died at the scene. An 18-year-old man who was a passenger in Rojo-Perez’s truck also died from his injuries. Rojo-Perez suffered minor injuries in the wreck. Officers believe Rojo-Perez was impaired by alcohol at the time of the collision. Rojo-Perez was booked into jail on suspicion of several charges. Missing 8-year-old boy found safe in northern Nevada RENO — Authorities have cancelled an AMBER Alert after a missing 8-year-old boy was found in Reno early Sunday. The Washoe County Sheriff’s Office tells KOLO-TV that the boy is OK was found with the help of a tip and Reno Police. The mother of 8-yearold Anthony Lemus reported him missing in Cold Springs on Saturday night. Her ex-husband, a suspect in the search, has also been found. Charges are pending as the investigation continues. KOLO reported earlier that a SWAT team was at a home that may have held the boy and his father, Abraham Lemus. Reno music instructor to jail for lewdness with teen student RENO — A 69-year-old private music instructor accused of having inappropriate contact with a female student at his Reno studio has been sentenced to a year in jail on a lewdness charge. William Weiser of Sparks plead guilty in December to one count of open or gross lewdness after admitting he inappropriately touched the 16-year-old girl while giving her music lessons last summer. Washoe County District Judge Jerry Polaha sentenced him Friday to the maximum 364 days in jail. Deputy District Attorney Nicholas Graham said the girl complained that Weiser touched her buttocks and waist, and forced open mouth kisses on her. Graham says Weiser’s standing in the community led the teen to trust him. He says the betrayal of her trust to further his own sexual interests was reprehensible. Nevada deputies question inmate about 2012 threats to judge CARSON CITY — Investigators may have gotten the break they were looking for in their four-year search for a suspect in a series of threats against a Carson City judge. Deputies received a tip earlier this week that a Washoe County jail inmate — 74-year-old John As- SPARKS Tribune SERVING SPARKS SINCE 1910 Contact Us By Phone: 775-358-8062 News - ext. 4 Advertising - ext. 1 Subscriptions - ext. 7 Classified - ext. 2 Legals, Public Notices - ext. 3 ton of Sparks — may have been involved with the threats made against Judge John Tatro in 2012, Carson City Sheriff Ken Furlong said. Deputies took him to the sheriff’s office, where they questioned him, and subsequently served a search warrant on a storage locker in Sparks where they found a Mercedes Benz similar to one they had been seeking in connection with the case based on surveillance footage near the judge’s home, he said. Aston was being held Friday in the Carson City jail on $5,000 bail on a warrant in connection with a 2011 contempt of court charge. Furlong said no arrests have been made, but that the new lead “appears promising.” Investigators hope to collect DNA samples to see if they match any to DNA evidence collected earlier during the investigation at the judge’ s home in Carson City, he said in a statement Thursday. The evidence will be processed next week at the Washoe County crime lab, he said. State, local and federal law officers have spent “thousands of investigative man-hours” on the case since someone fired two gunshots through the front door of Tatro’s home in December 2012, Furlong said. A year later, the judge received death threats in a Christmas card mailed to his home. In May 2015, deputies responded to a failed attempt to fire-bomb the judge’s residence, he said. Aston first appeared in Tatro’s courtroom on a traffic citation in 2005, court records show. 13 apply for Nevada district court in Reno CARSON CITY — Thirteen attorneys have applied for a spot on Nevada’s Second Judicial District bench in Reno. The Nevada Commission on Judicial Selection closed the application Friday for the nine-person Washoe County District Court. It is one of 11 such courts in the state that primarily preside over criminal cases. Applicants include 10 Reno attorneys, a discovery commissioner, a justice of the peace and a family court judge. The commission will accept written comments on the candidates through Feb. 24 and interview them in mid-March. The panel will submit three finalists to Gov. Brian Sandoval for the appointment. The vacancy on one of Nevada’s 11 district courts was created when Sandoval elevated Judge Lidia Stiglich to the state Supreme Court in November. No injuries in helicopter crash at Carson City airport RENO — Authorities say no one was hurt in a helicopter crash that briefly shut down the Carson City Airport. Firefighters tell KTVN-TV the craft tipped over Wednesday evening as a pilot and passenger were practicing touch downs. The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board are investigating the crash that closed the airport for a few hours.

He says that since the healthcare system is so volatile and bullish right now, it can be intimidating to find what’s right for them. “We provide a safe place to have a discussion and give information,” he adds. Since families are the majority of their client base with women as the main decision-makers, Family First Chiropractic aims to help women navigate the ever-changing world of healthcare and alleviate their uncertainties. “The system is very feardriven and as a mom, you’re trying to make decisions for the family but it can be scary,” says Fisher. Although most people come into Family First to ease headaches, neck and back pain, Fisher says that they work with colicky babies, athletes, and practices that keep kids healthy. “Kids come into get adjusted and their immune systems functioning properly,” he says. “Our doctors host these classes called ‘Eat Well, Move Well, Think Well’,” adds Fisher. He said that even when families do everything in their power to stay healthy, the exposure to junk food and a decline in activity is having a detrimental effect on kids. “My kids’ generation is the first generation ever that has a shorter life span than their parents due to less activity and the quality of food,” says Fisher. Sticking true to his business name, Fisher is very involved in what is happening in Sparks and with his family. He practices yoga with his daughter and coaches his son’s soccer team, as well as sponsors the local women’s shelter and remains involved with the Children’s Cabinet and The Humane Society. “Our whole life is here,” he says. “I feel blessed to help my patients regain their lives through chiropractic. We hope to provide answers in our approach. We don’t do a lot of twisting or popping; it’s very non-evasive,” adds Fisher. Family First Chiropractic has a wide range of patients- serving people as young as four hours old to patients in their nineties. In practice for almost 20 years, Family First Chiropractic has seen up to five generations of one family come through. “It’s cool to see entire families making healthy, better decisions,” he adds. Family First Chiropractic located on 2155 Green Vista Drive #202 in Sparks and is hosting its annual “Ladies Night of Indulgence” Friday, Feb. 10 from 4:30 to 7 p.m. As a Valentine’s present to the women who keep their families healthy, they will be offering a wine bar, a chocolate bar, free 15-minute massages for the ladies, and discounts on services. For more information, call 775-337-0184. “The focus is on keeping these kids safe, helping them find living arrangements, and then finally helping them reunite with families,” Sandoval said. Along with the Children’s Cabinet, other local organizations such as the Eddy House, the Community Foundation of Western Nevada, and the Reno Youth Network have also helped keep kids off the streets. The Center for Aspiring Youth will accommodate children from 12 to 17. It will house 16 beds for eight boys and eight girls. The Cottage of Change caters to older youth from 18 to 24 years old who have outgrown foster care. This facility, similar to dorm style housing, features four beds for boys and four beds for girls. The staff helps kids become more selfsufficient with reaching goals, going to school, getting a job and budgeting. Sandoval said that the greatest challenge with the building project was identifying and creating an appropriate location to construct the new buildings. Through a partnership with the state, the Children’s Cabinet acquired the buildings on the Galletti campus in Sparks and began preparing the campus for use in 2013 with a $1.1 million grant from the US Department of Labor along with local funding and private donations. Going forward, she added that funding and running the daily operation of the two buildings will continue to be a challenge. This includes staffing and training along with the complete transformation of a former medical facility into a new home for kids seeking emergency safety and shelter. By Kayla Anderson Sparks Tribune The seven years of Cliff Fisher playing football and getting in two major car accidents caught up to him at a young age. By the time he was 17, Fisher was suffering from constant headaches, neck and lower back pain. Luckily his parents who worked in healthcare took him to a chiropractor, where his headaches quickly subsided. Fisher soon considered studying to be a nurse to follow in his parents footsteps, but he tried shadowing a surgeon for a day or two and just didn’t like it. They encouraged him to become a chiropractor instead. “It was interesting growing up with their view on the chiropractic profession,” says Fisher. Along with playing sports, Fisher got into martial arts as well and found out that his instructor was also a chiropractor, giving him a glimpse into his future career path. After graduating from Wooster High School, Fisher went to Truckee Meadows Community College, Indiana University in Fort Wayne, and the prestigious Palmer College of Chiropractic in Iowa. He learned how to master the upper cervical technique and give a certain quality of care that less than 150 doctors are trained for in the US. Luckily for the residents of Sparks, Fisher found his way back home to open Family First Chiropractic. “I grew up here- it’s a great community, great people, I can’t imagine anywhere else I would want to start a practice,” says Fisher. “We have a Courtesy photo Family First Chiropractic doctors (from left) Dr. Harry Heeder, Dr. Stephen Perry, Dr. Clifford Fisher, Dr. Rachel Whitman, Dr. Rick Swecker and Dr. Jack Noelle.

Comprised of community members and people who specialize in the arts and culture industry, the committee was formed to help the city council figure out what is needed in regards to funding and support for the local arts and culture program in Sparks. The committee is working to develop a strategic plan by seeking public input through a series of meetings. The first event was held in late January at The Generator followed by a second meeting at the Boys and Girls Club/Larry D. Johnson Community Center. A couple of dozen people, a few teenagers, and City Councilwoman Charlene Bybee were in attendance to the second meeting, facilitated by Jeff Brunings of On Strategy. “Today is designed to hear your voice on enhancing the sense of identity in Sparks,” Now Open! sparks 200 N McCarran Blvd (775) 359-0550 10a-11p daily Inside —S enior M inistry— The Little Thrift Shop 25% off Inventory Reduction Sale!

Glendale at McCarran, Sparks 775-240-0328 said Brunings. “We are in the early stages of the public input process and set for early adoption in late spring. What we want to focus on today is, ‘What does success look like? What are the potential obstacles? What are the immediate opportunities on fast-tracking art and enhancing this community?’” With a few idea boards up around the room, Brunings asked the audience what they think Sparks would look like five years from today. One person says she imagines more public art displayed around the community, making it more inviting. Another saw an opportunity to create partnerships spanning across all ages with nonprofits and businesses. J Witt, president of Silverwing Development, is in the process of constructing a series of residential and commercial buildings including the Fountainhouse, The Bridges, and revitalizing the movie theater in Victorian Square. “We are designing a concrete corridor that you can plant in, put art in, or do some other type of installation,” says Witt. Coming in the midst of development of Victorian Square’s resurgence, there may be opportunities for an arts and culture plan to be implemented. “We want to give flexibility to the development,” Witt added. “The dominant thing we heard at The Generator is that our local artists need a central place, an epicenter to create,” says Brunings. “Using Victorian Square as a jumpstart for art could be great.” Bybee added, “We’re super excited about this proposal and receiving tax funds to build a vibrant downtown with what J is doing in regards to lighting, architecture, and creating a district that people are drawn to. This is cool because we’re building it from the ground up.” Witt said that Silverwing Development would love to turn the fountain (in front of the movie theater on Victorian Avenue) into a musical outdoor event- making it come alive- as well as offer dining along that corridor. “Art is a big part of that,” he says. Brunings said another thing heard at The Generator is that the City needs to support the artist ecosystem and work to attract, retain, and foster the artist community. “Lower the barrier of entry, make it easier, is what they said,” said Brunings. Community members then talked about how to reinforce the brand of the city through art and successful projects that other cities have launched to embrace and enhance their local community. The group also talked about potential roadblocks in this strategic plan, which mainly goes back to funding. One person said, “People get freaked out when they see art, thinking that their tax dollars are paying for it. You need total transparency throughout the process,” she adds. Bybee says, “We need to work with the people so they understand the value of bringing in art; connecting the community.” Brunings then asked the group what the best ways are in keeping the community informed and engaged about this process. Local artist Pan Pantoja shared a story about how one town built a 300-ft. sculpture of a turtle and every single kid contributed a piece to it. “There was total involvement, and word spread,” said Pantoja. Witt added, “You really need to think of the size and scope of public art. [Silverwing Development] needs a plan to work towards so that we can knock off some of these projects while building.” To conclude the second public input arts and culture strategic session, Brunings asked the group what the first word is that pops into mind when describing art in the community. Some responses were, “inspiration, energize, renaissance, stimulating, symbolic, revival.” The third Arts & Culture strategic meeting will be held this evening from 6pm-7:30pm at the Sparks Heritage Museum followed by a Feb. 18 meeting at Red’s Golden Eagle Grill.

The City has not designated sandbag retrieval locations, but will announce toward the end of the flood season, typically the month of April. If businesses or residents want to dispose of their sandbags, they may do so at the Lockwood Regional Landfill (2401 Canyon Way), or the Waste Management Transfer Station, (1392 E. Commercial Row). Jury selection begins for trial of 6 in Bundy ranch standoff Associated Press Protesters with fluttering flags and a bellowing bullhorn faced off Monday outside U.S. court in Las Vegas, while jury selection began inside for six defendants accused of stopping federal agents at gunpoint from rounding up cattle near Cliven Bundy’s ranch in April 2014. About 10 supporters of the jailed rancher and his philosophy that states’ rights supersede federal land policy, and a similar number of counter-protesters organized by a conservation advocacy group, remained peaceful beneath the watch of heavily armed federal security officers. “We’re out here to support our fellow citizens and uphold the Constitution against all enemies,” said Dan Knowles, a Bundy backer from Oakley, California, who also demonstrated outside the courthouse during several pretrial hearings in the case. “Our government has lost sight of the Constitution,” he said. “I (Heart) Public Lands,” read a sign in the hands of Ryan Beam, a Center for Biological Diversity protest organizer from Flagstaff, Arizona. He said his group fears that elected officials want to sell, give away or privatize public property in the West. Bundy and his sons are not among the first six defendants to go to trial in U.S. District Court in Nevada. They’re due for trial after proceedings are completed involving Orville Scott Drexler, Todd Engel, Eric Parker and Steven Stewart, all of Idaho, Gregory Burleson of Phoenix and Richard Lovelein of Oklahoma. Each is accused of 10 charges including conspiracy, firearm offenses and assault on a federal officer. Each has pleaded not guilty, and each could face up to 101 years in prison if convicted of all charges. continued from Page 1 tion where Republicans now control 32 state legislatures, Congress and the White House. “At a time when political rhetoric and hyper-partisanship have defined politics in D.C., we have an opportunity to show the country what a citizens’ Legislature and a bipartisan government is capable of accomplishing,” Frierson said in a speech to Assembly members and their families. Lawmakers slapped each other’s backs and shared congeniality Monday that will become rarer as they negotiate Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval’s $8.1 billion state spending proposal, review state taxes and take a closer look at newly legalized recreational marijuana during the four-month session. They have proposed 864 bills so far. Frierson and Ford said the majority party will champion public schools, renewable energy, criminal justice reform, equal pay for equal work and raising the minimum wage. Ford said lawmakers will also work to undo labor laws passed under the Republican majority in 2015, including one that allowed certain public contractors to pay workers 10 percent below the average wage and benefits in a given region. Democrats have not yet outlined specific financial priorities or forged a united front on the future of Nevada’s school voucher program Republicans passed as a parental choice initiative in 2015. The Education Savings Account program would provide public funds of up to about $5,000 per child for families to spend on K-12 education outside the public school system. The Nevada Supreme Court in September struck down a plan to fund the program with dollars appropriated to public schools. Ford said the Democrats’ budget plan will leave no room for school vouchers. Other Democrats have floated the possibility of limiting eligibility to low-income families. They could also propose repealing the program altogether, but any change must receive Sandoval’s approval.

It was Spanish Springs’ final regular-season home game of the year. The Cougs remained one game ahead of Reed for second-place in the High Desert League with just two games remaining. They can finish no worse than third (meaning they cannot open the postseason at undefeated Bishop Manogue) thanks to McQueen’s loss at Reed. Twelve different Spanish Springs players scored, led by Anhelica Shanrock’s eight. The Cougs led 14-0 after the first quarter and 26-3 at the half. Spanish Springs goes to league-leading Reno tonight then wraps the regular season up with a hugely important game Friday night at Reed. Spanish Springs 63, North Valleys 56 The Cougars maintained a hold on second place in the High Desert League with a 63-56 win at North Valleys last Tuesday night. Spanish Springs (16-7, 10-3) remained one game clear of both Reed and McQueen with its fifth win in its last seven. North Valleys (8-12, 5-9) was eliminated from postseason contention with the loss. The Cougs pulled out the road win despite the Panthers’ Jada Casper exploding for 29 points. Shanrock led the Spanish Springs offense with 15 points. Both Mackenzie O’Connell and Kierra Johnson added eight. The guests were in control throughout. They led 33-20 at the half then fended the Panthers off in the second half, taking a 43-36 lead to the fourth. sparks girls hoops Railroaders drop a pair, seek first win against Dayton Sparks Tribune A zero remained in the win column for Sparks after last Tuesday night’s 62-9 loss at Fallon. The first-place Greenwave improved to 19-3, 13-0 in the 3A North. The Railroaders went on to suffer another lopsided defeat at home to South Tahoe on Friday night. Sparks plays a potentially winnable game tonight, at home, against Dayton. The Dust Deveils are 2-19, 1-10. Their lone win was against the Railroaders, 43-21, a month ago. Reed erased any possibilities of falling to McQueen for a second time early on Friday night. The Raiders held the Lancers scoreless in the second quarter, led 31-4 at the half, and rolled to a pivotal 60-28 home win. Both teams entered the contest in a third-place deadlock. Reed (16-5, 104) now holds that position outright with two games to play. McQueen (15-9, 9-5) dropped into fourth place. “It’s a big win,” Reed coach Sara Schopper-Ramirez said. “They came out with confidence. I’m going to say we’re starting to peak, starting to figure it out.” In the two team’s first meeting two and a half weeks ago at McQueen, Reed fell 45-37. Schopper-Ramirez said other than adding a few different offensive rotations, the difference between Friday’s win and that loss was simple. “The ball was going in the bucket,” she said. “We just couldn’t buy a bucket the first time we played them.” Taylor Johnson led the Raiders with 20 points in the victory. Vanessa Hernandez added 14 and freshman Autumn Wadsworth finished with 10. McQueen’s Kaila Spevack scored all her team-high 10 points in the third quarter.

The Cougars (19-4, 14-0) clinched the league title with the win. They play at second-place Reno tonight. For the second time in Spanish Springs boys basketball history, the Cougars are league champs. Spanish Springs wrapped up the High Desert League title on Friday night with a dominating 72-28 Senior Night victory over Hug. The first league title came in 2015. The Cougs (19-4, 14-0), who won their 12th straight game, own a three-game lead over Reno with just two games left in the regular season. The Hawks (9-15, 4-10) remained in fifth place, two games behind both McQueen and Reed. Damani Craig hit 5-of-9 shots from the field, 3-of-5 from deep to score a gamehigh 18 points in the win. Josh Prizina turned in a double-double, finishing with 14 points to go along with 11 rebounds. Marcus Loadholt added 11 points.

North Valleys fell to 9-14, 2-11. Twelve different Spanish Springs players scored in what was by far the HDL leader’s most productive offensive night of the season and beyond. The most points the Cougs scored in 2016-17 before the win was 77 – twice. Limited research suggests it was the first time Spanish Springs has ever broken the 90-point threshold. Loadholt led the way with 23 points on 9-of-15 shooting from the floor. Jalen Townsell and Craig also reached double figures, both finishing with 15. Prizina flirted with a double-double. He scored nine points and pulled down nine rebounds. The Cougars shot 59 percent from the floor (39-for66) and won the rebounding battle by an egregious tally of 42-17. AJ Dennis scored 15 points to highlight North Valleys’ offense. The score was 35-14 after the first quarter and 59-30 at the half. reed boys hoops Raiders suffer pair of losses By Nathan Shoup Sparks Tribune Sports Editor Lincoln Turner was the reason Reed hung around with McQueen on Friday night.

With the Raiders down two and four seconds left, Turner took a baseline inbounds pass on the right wing and worked his way to the middle of the floor. He heaved up a contested potential game-winning triple from the top of the key. It was one of his few shots that didn’t hit nylon. The 60-58 home loss dropped the Raiders (7-15, 6-8) into a third-place tie with McQueen. “We tried to get inside to Lincoln for that final play,” first-year Reed coach Joe Genung said. “Lincoln had to bounce out. They did a good job staying in front of him those final seconds.” Reed climbed its way out of a 47-36 hole late in the third quarter – its second double-digit deficit of the night – to eventually tie things up at 55 in the final minutes on a Matt Wil- liams driving layup. The game was tied one more time, at 57, but the Raiders did not hit another field goal the rest of the way. Guillermo Ramos-Garcia led McQueen with 21 points in the win, including a couple dagger triples in the second half to help fight off the Turner-led comeback attempt. He scored six of his points in the Lancers’ game-swinging 19-1 run to start the second half. “We got really stagnate on defense, and on offense we had a tough time coming out ready to execute. I suppose that’s my fault,” Genung said of McQueen’s run. “We talk a lot about, statistically speaking, you want to win the first four minutes of the first half, first four minutes of the second half, and the final four minutes. We had a tough time with the start of both halves.” Reed led 32-26 at halftime, overcoming an early 14-4 deficit, but trailed 45-33 after McQueen’s dominant start to the third quarter. The home team never led again. Jeremy Ramos added 14 points in the loss. > See RAIDERS, Page 10 John Byrne/Tribune Sophomore Matt Williams works in the paint in Reed’s 60-58 home loss to McQueen on Friday night.

Eight different Cougs suffered semifinal defeats in the 4A North regional tournament at Reno High and were sent to the third/fourth place matches. The winner of the following match would qualify for state. The loser was done for the season. “We hit a rough patch earlier in the day and I tell you what, Reno showed up,” Spanish Springs coach Joe Imelli said. “Their kids did a heck of a job today. We just regrouped the team, had a talk about getting our focus back … and making sure we get guys to go to state.” The Cougars went 6-2 in the winner-to-state matchups and went on to win their fifth consecutive regional title, their eighth in nine years, holding off Reno with a team score of 223 – 21 points clear of the Huskies. Carson (157) finished third, McQueen (126) fourth, Damonte Ranch (118.5) fifth and Reed (96) sixth. “It’s always good to be pushed,” Imelli said. “I love the fact that Reno showed up and pushed us. It’s going to make us better. Absolutely.” When the championship matches started, the Cougs held a 20-point lead over the Huskies. And right off the bat, Spanish Springs’ Anthony Sissom squared off with Reno’s Eric Lopez for the 106-pound title. Sissom, a freshman, pinned Lopez with 32 seconds left in the second round. “I told him, ‘you know, start us off,’ and you can’t ask for a better start, against Reno in Reno’s house,” Imelli said. “That was a big start for where we needed to go.” John Byrne/Tribune Spanish Springs freshman Anthony Sissom (top) pinned Reno’s Eric Lopez for the 4A North 106-pound regional title during the regional finals Saturday afternoon at Reno High. Sissom was one of three Cougs to win an individual title. As a team, Spanish Springs won its fifth consecutive regional championship, its eighth in the last nine years. Spanish Springs hosts the state tournament on Friday and Saturday. The Cougs are looking for their first state championship ever, after finishing second last February. Two matches later, Jacob Ruiz pinned Reed’s Alex Casarez with 11 seconds left in the final round for the 120-pound title. The victory put the Cougs up 32 points and mathematically eliminated Reno (which had five wrestlers left) from title contention. In total, three Spanish Springs wrestlers won regional titles. Cole Drescher won the 160-pound title match by major decision, 10-1. It was his second consecutive championship. Joey McKay (152) and Tyler Barats (285) were both runners up. Owen Jones (113), Nick Poalillo (126), Isaac Ruiz (145), Colby Preston (170), Case Preston (195) and Killian Hurley (220) all punched their tickets to state with wins in the 3rd/4th places matches. “The run these boys have had has been incredible,” said Imelli, who coached the Cougs to their 10th straight league title, and their 60th consecutive league dual victory, earlier this season. “I’m really excited to see how they finish up this next week. That’s a heck of a senior class we’re sending out.” For Reed, Izzy Casarez completed a career sweep of regional titles with a 14-6 major decision victory over McKay. Casarez is the first Reed wrestler ever to win four regional titles. As a freshman, he won at 120. As a sophomore, he won at 126.

He will be joined at state by his younger brother, Alex, who took second at 120 pounds and Tim Eubanks, who took third in the 182-pound class. Neither team will have to travel far for state next week, especially Spanish Springs. The Cougars are hosting the twoday tournament Friday and Saturday. They will be wrestling for their first state title in program history after taking second to Green Valley last winter. Green Valley has won five consecutive state titles and will once again be a force, qualifying 13 wrestlers for the tournament (Spanish Springs qualified 11). “We’re not worrying about qualifying anymore. We’re at where we’re at with the 11 guys,” Imelli said. “Whatever matchups we get with Green Valley, we have to make sure we’re winning those matchups. I’ll tell you what, we’re obviously a big fan of everybody that’s wrestling against them.” Pair of Railroaders state bound Sparks sent a pair of wrestlers to state on Saturday, the final day of the 3A North regional tournament at Truckee. Avery Aranas (138) qualified by taking second, and Colby Bowman (132) finished third. As a team, Sparks finished in seventh (out of nine) with 90 points. Spring Creek won the 3A North title with 247 points. Fallon (214) finished second in front of Lowry (207). The 3A state tournament will run simultaneously with the 1A, 2A and 4A tournaments next Friday and Saturday at Spanish Springs. Railroaders pick up first league win Matt Longland’s 24 points weren’t enough on Friday night as Sparks fell at home to South Tahoe, 74-46. The defeat came three days after the Railroaders (2-19, 1-12) picked up their first league win of the season, at Fallon. The Vikings improved to 16-5, 11-2 with their second similar victory over Sparks. They won the first meeting at the lake, 7347, last month. Longland hit 4-of-5 shots from beyond the arc to get to 24. Nobody else in a Sparks uniform finished with more than six points. Tommy Cefalu also scored 24 points for South Tahoe. Sparks stays at home tonight as Truckee (2-12, 1-10) comes to town. The Wolverines won the first meeting, 53-49. Sparks 73, Fallon 59 It finally came together for Sparks last Tuesday night at Fallon. After so many close losses, the Railroaders turned in their best performance of the season and picked up their first 3A North victory, 73-59. Sparks moved to 2-18, 1-11 while the Greenwave dipped to 9-12, 6-7 with the upset defeat. The Railroaders outscored the Greenwave 4028 in the second half after holding a narrow 33-31 edge at the half.

From left to right: Anhelica Shanrock (basketball at College of the Siskiyous), Kalli Prendgerast (soccer at Utah State University Eastern), Madison Escolar (soccer at Lake Tahoe Community College), Ireland Bennett (volleyball at Oregon Institute of Technology). Four Cougs ink national letters of intent Sparks Tribune Thousands of high school senior student athletes from around the country inked national letters of intent on Wednesday’s signing day, including four girls from Spanish Springs. Ireland Bennett was the lone athlete to sign at a four-year university. She will continue her volleyball career at Oregon Tech – an NAIA program in Klamath Falls, Ore. Bennett was a staple for the successful Spanish Springs volleyball program the last few years. She moved from outside hitter to middle blocker this fall and was named a second-team all-league selection for the Cougs, who went 32-8 and won the High Desert League title. The Owls went 12-14 this fall in the Cascade Collegiate Conference. Bennett also plays basketball at Spanish Springs. Anhelica Shanrock will play basketball at College of the Siskiyous – a junior college in Weed, Calif. Shanrock is the leading scorer for the Spanish Springs this winter and is a significant reason the Cougs (17-7, 11-3) are having one of their best seasons in the last four of five years. At College of the Siskiyous, Shanrock will play for a premier program. The Eagles are 23-1 this winter and have won 21 straight. Kalli Prendergast and Madison Escolar will both play soccer at the next level. Prendergast signed to elongate her playing career at Utah State University Eastern – a junior college in Nice, Utah about 100 miles southeast of Salt Lake City. She scored three goals and passed out two assists for the Cougs this fall. Prendergast joins an Eagles program that went 133-3 in the Scenic West Athletic Conference this year. She also plays basketball at Spanish Springs. Her now former teammate, Escolar, is staying close to home. Escolar will play for Lake Tahoe Community College. The Coyotes finished 6-11-1 in the fall, good for fourth in the Golden Valley Conference. Escolar scored twice and finished with one assist this fall. Sparks High doesn’t send a lot of athletes on to NCAA Div. I programs. It does, however, have a habit of sending the Partida brothers onto the big stage. Senior boys soccer player Jesus Partida signed a national letter of intent to play at UNLV last Wednesday afternoon during a signing ceremony held in the school’s gym lobby. By committing to the Rebels, Partida is following the footsteps of his brother, Kevin, who also went on to UNLV from Sparks. Partida led Sparks to a 25-2-1 record and a state title (in Las Vegas) this fall. He averaged more than a goal a game (32 goals) and passed out eight assists. It was a redemptive season for Partida after he missed his entire junior campaign with a significant knee injury. UNLV went 10-12-2 last season, but earned an NCAA Tournament berth thanks to a WAC Tournament title. The Rebels went on to beat San Diego State, 2-1, in double overtime before falling to Denver in the second round. Partida’s older brother started all 20 games for UNLV as a junior in 2015. His four goals were tied for second on the team. He also passed out three assists. He did not see time in 2016. John Byrne file photo/Tribune Sparks senior Jesus Partida signed a national letter of intent at UNLV last Wednesday afternoon. Partida scored 32 goals this season, leading the Railroaders to a state title. Quartet of Reed athletes sign letters Sparks Tribune Four Reed athletes signed national letters of intent on Thursday afternoon during a signing ceremony held in the school’s gym. Gymnast Brennan Pantazis was the lone athlete to sign at a Div. I program. He will compete for Penn State next year. Gymnastics is not a Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association sanctioned sport, but many athletes in Northern Nevada compete at the club level. McKenna Kester will play soccer at Treasure Valley Community College in Ontario, Ore. – about 50 miles northeast of Boise, Ida.

Maybe the team was flexed out. Maybe it needed time to recover. At least, that’s what it looked like. The first-place Wolf Pack went to Logan, Utah last Wednesday night to play the last-place Aggies and was handed its worst loss of the season, 74-57. Nevada (18-5, 7-3) fell back into a first-place tie with Boise State following the 17-point loss, the second-most lopsided defeat of the season (18 points at St. Mary’s). Utah State improved to 10-11, 4-6. Rebounding has become a problem the last couple weeks and was once again a major factor in the defeat. Nevada was beat 50-36 on the glass. It was hardly the only area the Wolf Pack struggled. Nevada shot an abysmal 32 percent from the field, just 4-of-26 from deep, resulting in the lowest scoring output of the season. The previous low was 63 points (against St. Mary’s). Leading scorer Marcus Marshall was held to just two points on 1-of-12 shooting, 0-for-7 from beyond the arc. Defensively, Nevada allowed Utah State to shoot 49 percent from the field, Nevada shot an abysmal 32 percent from the field, just 4-of-26 from deep, resulting in the lowest scoring output of the season. including 7-of-19 from threepoint land. The Aggies scored 49 second-half points to methodically pull away after a 25-25 tie at the half. Freshman Koby McEwin torched Nevada for 26 points. At the free throw line, Nevada was just 9-of-20 (45 percent). Cam Oliver was a rare bright spot, continuing his stretch of strong play with 14 points and 13 rebounds. However, he battled foul trouble the entire second half and fouled out. Jordan Caroline scored 15 points on 6-of-12 shooting and pulled down seven rebounds. D.J. Fenner was the only other Nevada player in double figures. He scored 15 points, but needed a gamehigh 17 shots to get there. Nevada did not have a game on Saturday and returns to Lawlor Events Center on Wednesday night to its rival from down south. The Wolf Pack and Rebels (10-14, 3-8) tip at 8 p.m. It will be the second consecutive game Nevada plays the Mountain West’s lastplace team. Raiders Reno 80, Reed 53 Ramos and Turner accounted for 72 percent of the Raiders’ offensive production, similar to when the two combined for 75 percent (56 points) off the offensive output in the 75-70 win at McQueen two and a half weeks ago. Reed ends the regular season this week with a game at Hug (4-10 in 4A North) tonight, followed by a home date with Spanish Springs on Friday. “The next game is a big one,” Genung said. “We have to go on the road. This game is over. We can’t rewind the clock. We just have to get ready to try to get Hug. We still control our destiny.” Unless McQueen upsets Reno on Friday, Reed will finish third in the High Desert The Raiders were handled by second-place Reno at home last Tuesday night, 80-53. Turner scored 24 points, it just wasn’t enough to keep up with the Huskies, who led 20-2 after the first quarter. Reed dropped to 7-14, 6-7 4A North, but got some help from Hug. The Hawks upset McQueen the same night, keeping the Raiders one game ahead of the Lancers for third place in the High Desert League with three games remaining. Reno improved to 17-5, 10-3, staying three games behind league-leading Spanish Springs. Ramos added 10 points in the loss. Williams finished with seven.

Bishop Manogue has clinched the Sierra League title and Reno is one win from wrapping up the HDL. The No. 2, 3 and 4 seeds are still very much up for grabs. In the HDL, Spanish Springs, Reed and McQueen will be the other three playoff teams. Spanish Springs and Reed will likely play for the No. 2 seed on Friday night. In the Sierra League, Carson, Douglas, Galena and Damonte Ranch are fighting for three playoff spots. The four squads are separated by just two games. 1. Bishop Manogue Miners (20-2, 14-0) The Miners have won their eight Sierra League games by an average of 61.25 points. They’re going to end up winning the Sierra League by at least eight games. Bishop Manogue has won 47 straight against 4A North opponents. Last week: 1 2. Reno Huskies (21-4, 13-1) The Huskies haven’t rolled through league play quite as easily as the Miners, but they’ve been close. Reno can clinch the HDL title with a home win over Spanish Springs tonight Last week: 2 3. Reed Raiders (16-5, 10-4) Reed bounced back from a loss to Reno with a dominating 60-28 home win over McQueen on Friday night. Somehow, the Raiders lost the first matchup between the two teams in Northwest Reno. The Raiders sit in third place in the HDL, but can move in to the No. 2 spot with wins this week over Hug and Spanish Springs (who they lost to in the first meeting). Last week: 3 4. Spanish Springs Cougars (17-7, 11-3) The Cougs have a brutal close to the regular season. They go to Reno tonight, then go to Reed on Friday night. The cross-town rivalry contest will likely determine who opens on the postseason at home, and who has to go on the road. Last week: 4 5. McQueen Lancers (15-9, 9-5) The Lancers are trending in the wrong direction at the wrong time. Three losses in the last four games eliminated McQueen from the ability to open the playoffs at home. Now, it’s about trying to find a way out of the No. 4 seed and opening the postseason at Bishop Manogue. A home contest against Reno in the final game of the regular season on Friday night is a tall order. Last week: 5 Outside looking in: Carson Senators Izzy Casarez Reed Wrestling ATHLETE OF THE WEEK Casarez completed a career sweep of regional titles on Saturday afternoon at Reno. Casarez won the 4A North 152-pound regional title by major decision, 14-6. It was his fourth consecutive regional title, winning at 120 as a freshman, 126 as a sophomore and 138 as a junior. He’s the only Reed wrestler ever to win four regional titles. Casarez went on to win the 138-pound state title last winter. He will attempt to claim a second consecutive state title this weekend at Spanish Springs. Feb. 7, 2017 sports shoup shots Dear 4A North, time to be logical, not proud N orthern Nevada is on the brink of once again becoming relevant in the statewide athletics conversation, particularly football. In late March, the Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association Board of Control will vote on a realignment that would create a 5A classification starting in the 2018-19 school year. Southern Nevada has grown so drastically that 25 schools currently compete at the 4A level. Only 12 compete at the level in Northern Nevada, 11 if you discount Wooster which plays football in the 3A North. The potential move would divide the schools in Las Vegas based on their success the past six seasons. Football would be evaluated separately, meaning teams could play at the 5A level in football and 4A in other sports, or vice versa. The best part for Northern Nevada? The schools would vote whether they want to stay at the 4A level or move up to 5A. One word, or actually, name, should determine the 4A North’s vote: Gorman. The Gaels would undoubtedly opt to play at the 5A level meaning the 4A North will have the choice not to play the private school power any longer. That was not a typo. The schools that have been belittled, embarrassed and ran over by Gorman (most notably Reed football) can simply opt to longer a footnote. I get that pride is a factor. Nobody wants to own the perception of hiding or ducking from competition. However, this is not a time to be proud. It’s a time to be logical. In December, NIAA Executive Director Bart Thompson said Bishop Gorman is not going anywhere. The Gaels and their eight straight state football titles as well as their five straight state boys basketball titles will continue to compete for NIAA state titles. Bishop Gorman has taken advantage of “the system.” Now, the 4A North can do the same. This is not to say state championship trophies in major sports are suddenly going to migrate to Northern Nevada for good. Behind Gorman are several top-tier programs in several sports across the Las Vegas area: Liberty football, Clark boys basketball, Centennial girls basketball, Green Valley wrestling, Palo Verde softball, to name a few. In all likelihood, not all of those schools are going to bump up to 5A or remain at 4A unilaterally. The 4A North will still have to do 11 something special, regardless or sport, to end the season of win. However, state titles would once again be practical. Schools, nathan shoup particularly in sports talk football and basketball, will once again be able to say they aspire to win a state title. And it won’t be a joke. With the current athletic landscape in Northern Nevada, the regional tournament is becoming the pinnacle of achievement. The state tournament has been relegated to a “we’re just glad to be here” exhibition. This move would change that. Obviously, not all sports have become Vegas-dominant. Spanish Springs and Reed have won the last two state softball titles. Galena and Carson have won the last two boys soccer state titles. And Spanish Springs wrestling is becoming one of the strongest programs in the state. The result of a reclassification would only give those teams an easier a path. Is that so detrimental? It would be certainly be a fair trade if it meant giving sports like football, basketball and baseball hope – something they’ve lost. It’s been at least seven years since a large-school Northern Nevada team played for a state title on the diamond, let alone won it. Football, we don’t need to go there. Basketball, for boys and girls, is beginning to tell a similar story. The talent gap between Las Vegas and Reno will only continue to grow. This is Northern Nevada’s chance to bridge that gap. Isn’t it ironic that the first year Reed football is without Ernie Howren, the Raiders may have their best shot at winning a state title? Now is not the time to be pound your chest, 4A North. Now is the time to use the resources given to you. Bishop Gorman has done exactly that. That’s worked out pretty well for the Gaels. Work smarter. Not harder. Of course, all will be for not if the NIAA BOC shoots down the realignment in March. Shoup Shots was named the best column in the state of Nevada (community division) by the Nevada Press Association.

Until then, the High Desert League needs to sort out its final two playoff teams. Reed and McQueen are tied at 6-8 in regional play with Hug still mathematically alive, two games back of both. In the Sierra League, Carson and Bishop Manogue are tied for second (and the right to host a first-round playoff game) at 10-4. The Senators host Wooster tonight and play at Douglas on Friday. The Miners close with road games at Damonte Ranch and Wooster. Douglas is locked into the Sierra League No. 4 spot. 1. Spanish Springs Cougars (19-4, 14-0) Kyle Penney has turned Spanish Springs into one of the premier programs in Northern Nevada. This is his most talented team, however, and on Friday the Cougs celebrated just their second league title. Their first was just two years ago, in 2015. Last week: 1 2. Galena Grizzlies (20-4, 12-2) The Grizzlies also clinched a league title on Friday night. Galena played in an incredibly tough environment at Bishop Manogue and left with a 58-54 win. They’ve now won seven straight. Last week: 2 3. Bishop Manogue Miners (15-9, 10-4) It was almost one of the most impressive two-game stretches of any team in the 4A North. After 51-48 home win over Carson last Tuesday night, the Miners threw everything at the Grizzlies before coming up short in a fourpoint defeat. They remain a serious regional title contender. Last week: 4 4. Reno Huskies (17-5, 11-3) The Huskies easily disposed of Reed and North Valleys last week. Tonight’s home game against Spanish Springs has the potential to be one of the season’s best games, unfortunately it won’t mean anything in the standings. Spanish Springs is locked into the HDL No. 1 seed, Reno the No. 2. Last week: 5 5. Carson Senators (10-11, 10-4) After beating every 4A North team on the way to last year’s regional title, the Senators aren’t exactly sprinting into this postseason. Following consecutive road losses to Galena and Bishop Manogue, Carson struggled with Damonte Ranch at home on Friday night before pulling out a 59-53 win. Last week: 3 Outside looking in: McQueen Lancers OPINION 12 our view Lawmakers should repeal football stadium funding I t is called bait and switch. Lawmakers were summoned this past fall to Carson City and asked to pitch in $750 million toward financing a $1.9 billion domed football stadium that would house the Oakland Raiders and the UNLV football program. The Raiders and the NFL would add $500 million to the pot and Las Vegas casino and newspaper owner Sheldon Adelson’s family would tip in another $650 million. Since then Adelson has walked away from the deal, taking his money. He was miffed at the fact the Raiders’ owner never told him before hand about a proposed lease agreement with the stadium authority that legislators created to handle the “publicly owned” stadium. The lease proposal envisions the Raiders paying $1 a year in rent, and the team owners pocketing all revenue from tickets, events, naming rights, etc., as well as having total control over the use of the stadium by UNLV and the Las Vegas Bowl. “In addition to being discouraged by the surprise submission, I was deeply disappointed for the disregard the Raiders showed our community partners, particularly UNLV, through the proposed agreement,” Adelson said in a statement given to his Las Vegas newspaper. “It was certainly shocking to the Adelson family,” the statement also said. “We were not only excluded from the proposed agreement; we weren’t even aware of its existence. … It’s clear the Raiders have decided their path for moving to Las Vegas does not include the Adelson family. So, regrettably, we will no longer be involved in any facet of the stadium discussion.” It is high time lawmakers, now meeting in regular session, reconsider the state’s commitment of room tax money to this harebrained, half-baked scheme to enrich billionaires. Instead of sticking tourists with a 0.88 percent hike in the room tax, lawmakers should let them keep that money to spend on food, drink and gambling, which net nearly 10 times as much in tax revenue. > See STADIUM, Page 14 Feb. 7, 2017 Write to us Sparks Tribune [email protected] The intimacy of living whole W e continue our discussion from last week regarding human intimacy … There are many “arenas of intimacy.” Intimacy with the nature, for example, is the conscious and intentional ways we realize our dependence on air, water, soil, and the animals, the way we celebrate and enjoy participating in creation, helping things live and grow. Religious folks talk about intimacy with God. There is the intimacy of family, friends, and mates. But success in any intimate journey presupposes (and eventually will demand) the willingness to forge intimacy with self. It’s cosmic law. There is no way I can get close to you, unless I’m willing to get close to me. Same goes for you. We watch ourselves. Oh how we do watch ourselves! And modern media monitors what we watch, so that we can watch ourselves watch ourselves! It’s only a matter of time before there’s a news story about the number of people who regularly search YouTube for the most watched videos. In which case we’ll be watching ourselves watching ourselves watch ourselves. And then the universe will split in two. If I was God, it would be then that I would consider my little experiment with human beings a wash. Nope; just because we watch ourselves does not guarantee we will know ourselves. Intimacy with self is not the same as rapt narcissism. Nor is intimacy with self to be confused with ever-alert, painful self-consciousness. Intimacy with self is a journey, a joy, an encounter, and, sooner or later, a holy terror. Because not all aspects of the human personality are as noble as others. There is a humbling humanity alongside the divine light in us. Primitive, powerful Steven Kalas instincts and human matters too-often destructive desires. There are dark places in every human heart. To live whole and happy, all instincts, all desires, and all feelings are acknowledged – not judged – so that these same instincts, desires, and feelings can be managed, integrated, and ultimately employed in the service of a satisfying and meaningful life. A sure sign that we’re growing up is that we consciously possess our instincts, desires, and feelings, rather than be possessed by them. I’m not being dramatic. A human being possessed by a self who he/she does not know (and is unwilling to know) is at best directionless, often chaotic, frequently destructive to self and others, and easily swept into evil. Conversely (and thankfully!), intimate knowledge of the darkness in us makes darkness less likely. When we begin a serious journey of intimacy with self, we find that we are not one self but two selves (at least two!) There is “me-as-I-am” (The Authentic Self), and “me-asI-like-to-see-me” (The False Self). The crux of traditional psychotherapeutic and religious disciplines is identifying and subordinating The False Self so that The Authentic Self might emerge. Intimacy with self means paying attention. For example, while the self is more than the mere sum of our thoughts and feelings, our thoughts and feelings do provide a window through which we begin to glimpse our identity. So, too, can our bodies give us clues about who we are. We embody our identity in posture, body language, tension, kinesthetic habits, and certainly many (most?) illnesses. Paying attention to dreams is yet another way to meet ourselves. But, in the search for intimacy with self, we rarely need to look beyond our own behavior. It is the trump card. The tell. Freud said, “The consequences of our actions tend to reveal our motives,” and he was right. A favorite writer of mine said it like this: If you’re ever in doubt about who you are, look down. Look at your feet. What direction are they pointed? Where are they taking you? What are they walking toward? Or away from? Because that’s who you are. Your feet never lie. In a paradoxical twist, the journey to intimacy with self can never be completed alone. No matter how intently we examine our lives, there will always remain a part of ourselves eluding the examination – namely, the part doing the examination! To know ourselves fully, we must be known. We must rely on others to see in us what we cannot see in ourselves. True friends will tell you what they see. So will true enemies, of course. But their motives will be different. Even when your friends and your enemies agree. (Steven Kalas writes a weekly column for the Sparks Tribune. He is a Nevada author, therapist and Episcopal Priest.

New senator wants to shred First Amendment protection N evada’s newly elected U.S. senator, Catherine Cortez Masto, has already taken up the cudgel against the First Amendment previously wielded by her predecessor, Harry Reid. She put out a press release recently announcing that she has joined with other congressional Democrats to reintroduce a constitutional amendment that would overturn Supreme Court rulings that have held that it is a violation of the First Amendment to restrict the amount of money corporations, nonprofits, unions and other groups may spend on political campaigns and when they may spend it. In its current incarnation it is thomas mitchell being called the DemocCommentary racy for All Amendment. In previous years it bore the unwieldy acronym DISCLOSE Act — Democracy Is Strengthened by Casting Light on Spending in Elections. Reid frequently took to the floor of the Senate to pound the table for the amendment and dis- parage the Koch brothers’ political spending as the embodiment of evil. “The U.S. Constitution puts democratic power in the hands of the American people — not corporations or private companies,” the press release quotes Cortez Masto as saying. “Since the Citizens United decision, big corporations have gained unprecedented influence over elections and our country’s political process. I am proud to be a cosponsor of this legislation; it’s critical that we end unlimited corporate contributions if we are > See MITCHELL, Page 14 Feb. 7, 2017 13 opinion Sports reporting the Poison Annie’s revenge Mercy extended to Manning—but, but, but way it used to be et’s get this out of the W ord came last week that one of the premier athletes in this area over the past half century had passed away. His name was Bob “Spider” Larson. I knew him well, often seeing Harry Spencer him star for the University of Commentary Nevada Basketball team. He was tall for his era, possessing a compact body and extra-long arms and legs, which probably accounted for the arachnid appellation. In addition to being a stellar round ball player, he was a “scratch” golfer and Hidden Valley Club champion. I knew him best having competed against him in the Reno City League Basketball games. He was an outstanding member of the vaunted Roy’s Clothiers team, who were perennial champions in the top division. News of his passing caused me to riffle through some old newspaper clippings until I found one, turning sepia, from the Nevada State Journal Sports page which chronicled the defeat of the mighty Roy’s Clothiers by my McCaughey Motors squad. It was Roy’s first defeat after thirty six consecutive victories in the City Basketball League. Since both teams used a common shower facility in the old Billinghurst Gym, tensions were high between the two teams following the contest. The most striking thing I witnessed was the first time I had ever seen a grown man cry. His name was Roy Abrams, the sponsor of the defeated club, whose basketball team was his pride and joy. The next morning, the account of the game appeared in the Journal, which was edited by the legendary Ty Cobb and had been written by one Ray Gardella. The story had a three-column headline and was posted above the fold. In those days, under Cobb’s guidance, the Journal Sports section was a compilation of every local sporting event that had occurred in the area. Cobb was so insistent that local athletes be noted that he included the box scores of every City League game. Since there were some 32 teams in all and about ten players to a team, he was assured he would have at least 320 readers of his efforts. After my playing days were over and I became City League Basketball Commissioner, Cobb asked me to assume the duties of covering the games for the newspaper. This involved picking up the score cards from the three gyms: Billinghurst, Northside and Central, then scurrying to the newspaper and writing the accounts in time to beat the midnight deadline of the Journal. These days, when you often have to get to the second or third paragraph of a news story in order to get to the score of the contest, are in sharp contrast to the way sports stories were written in the past. To illustrate, I will encapsulate Gardella’s thirty six column inch report. “In one of the greatest comebacks ever witnessed in Reno City League Basketball, McCaughey Motors-after being able to tally only nine points in the first half-came back sensationally in the second period to score 40 tallies and hand mighty Roy’s Clothiers their first defeat in 36 starts, 49-43, with Earl “Dyna> See SPENCER, Page 14 L way upfront. With respect to Tsar Donaldo Vladimirovitch’s first supreme court appointee, I will not ask if the fruit can fall far from the tree. “If you want to attack Anne andrew barbano Commentary Gorsuch Burford, the first woman appointed as the head of the EPA, now deceased, and impute her alleged sins to her son, a distinguished jurist of impeccable reputation, then you are free to do so. But if you do, there are those who might be tempted to ask you ‘Sir, at long last, have you no sense of decency?’” One of my correspondents last week employed the classic gimlet which attorney Joseph Welch used as a scalpel to torpedo the credibility of Sen. Pat McCarran’s best bud, Sen. Joe “Commies Under Every Bed” McCarthy. Anybody who wants to accuse me of holding the son responsible for the sins of his mother, be advised that it’s already been done both online and via the airwaves. Such kneejerk response misses my point: With the nomination of Poison Annie’s progeny, Judge Neil Gorsuch, Tsar Vladimirovitch and Rasputin Breitbartsky have deftly engineered an inside triple play, a three-layered insult to environmentalism, a joke which all moonhowlers will understand. In 1981, King Ronnie the Vague appointed Anne Gorsuch Burford to head the Environmental Protection Agency, an institution she reviled. The Tsar’s current nominee, likewise assigned to destroy, is oil patch politician Scott Pruitt, cut from the same ideological cloth. Poison Annie did her best to dismantle the EPA and gloried in the destruction even as she walked out the door in disgrace. She was the first cabinet minister ever cited for contempt of Congress and resigned after Reagan threw her under the bus. Her defense was the ancient war crime copout: I was just following orders. The Reaganauts ordered her not to comply with congressional subpoenas about more than $1 billion of Toxic Waste Superfund mismanagement. When the White House abandoned its executive privilege claims, she walked after just 22 months on the job. Her chief aide, Rita Lavelle, went to jail for perjury. The nomination of Poison Annie’s kid is a multi-layered insult to tree huggers without explicitly stating it, thus eliminating the risk of righteous (but nonetheless off the mark) reactions such as stated by my learned legal correspondent. Rasputin is truly an evil genius. WHERE CREDIT IS DUE DEPT. I stole the appellation “Poison Annie” from the late, great Tribune columnist and talk radio legend Travus T. Hipp, whom I assume would approve such Gorsuch usage were he still available to grant it. END OF TIMES SURVIVAL KIT.

It is twice blest; / It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.” Portia, Shakespeare’s “The Merchant of VenJake Highton ice,” Act IV, Scene 1 s his last pardon Commentary before leaving office, President Obama granted mercy to Chelsea Manning. OK. But the sad irony is that Obama’s own Justice Department was merciless, getting an absurdly long prison sentence of 35 years for Ms. Manning. The average sentence for a leaker of classified information is just one to three years. Manning, who has already served seven years of the sentence, will be released May 17. Why not immediately? Good question. What’s the point of keeping her in prison four more months? Only the half-merciful Obama can answer. Another question. Why didn’t Obama pardon Edward Snowden? He leaked huge amounts of top-secret information. As the New York Times pointed out in an editorial, Ms. Manning and Snowden “acted in the spirit of whistle-blowers.” They released information about U.S. chicanery that benefitted the American public. The disclosures led to significant debate and reform. They never harmed the United States. Snowden, former intelligence contractor, is living in asylum in Moscow, a “safety house” that Russia has now extended to 2020. The Obama White House argued that the documents Snowden revealed were “far more serious and far more dangerous” than Manning’s disclosures. If so, that makes the Manning sentences even more absurd. Ms. Manning, a low-level Army intelligence analyst, leaked more than 700,000 classified documents. They included diplomatic cables and military-incident logs given to WikiLeaks, which shared them with news organizations. The Times, publishing the excerpts extensively, had a powerful impact with the disclosures. Bradley Manning was her original name. But the switch to Chelsea Manning had a terrible psychological impact on her life. Twice she tried to commit suicide. (The transgender woman is imprisoned at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas.) The Obama administration carried out what the Times called “an unprecedented criminal crackdown on leaks of government secrets. It prosecuted 10 such cases, more than were charged under all previous presidencies combined.” As Bradley Manning, he soldiered in Iraq and Afghanistan. A MILITARY JUSTICE A SHAM Josh Earnest, then White House spokesman, drew a distinction between Manning and Snowden: “Manning went through the criminal justice system, was found guilty and sentenced for her crimes. But Snowden fled into the arms of an adversary, a country that recently tried to undermine our democracy.” Bosh. In any case, presidential and military justice are shams. > See HIGHTON, Page 15 14 Feb. 7, 2017 Stadium continued from Page 12 Now, we are reticent to suggest that the proponents of this stadium deal are so Machiavellian as to have plotted this from the start, but … Lawmakers should note that there is no stadium price tag in the bill they passed, and the stadium backers flatly refused to consider capping public funding at 39 percent of the cost of construction.

A stadium is a liability, not an asset. It is an insatiable maw that swallows tax money in perpetuity.

The opinion was based on an unverifiable anecdote of two illegal immigrants voting in Las Vegas. The primary point was that there is widespread voter fraud if we would look for it. The implication of your piece was that Nevada has inadequate mechanisms to assure that only legal residents can vote. However, after moving to Sparks in 2015 I immediately went to the DMV to obtain a Nevada driver’s license, and was also able to register to vote during that process. To accom- Mitchell continued from Page 12 going to have a democratic process and government that will truly work for all Americans.” In the 2010 Citizens United decision, a 5-4 Supreme Court struck down the part of the McCain-Feingold campaign finance law that prohibited organizations such as Citizens United, a political action committee, from expending funds for electioneering immediately prior to an election. In this case the Federal Election Commission blocked the 2008 broadcast of “Hillary: The Movie,” which was critical of Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid. During the arguments in the case, the Justice Department attorney defending the law admitted the law also would censor books critical of candidates, though newspapers and other media, most owned by large corporations, were exempted from the law and may criticize, editorialize and endorse or oppose candidates freely. Some corporations are more equal than others. Cortez Masto’s statement concluded, “The Democracy for All Amendment returns the right to regulate elections to the people by clarifying that Congress and the states can set reasonable regula- plish these objectives I was required to present proof of identity and legal status. There were several types of acceptable documentation required, including a birth certificate or a US passport. Nevada residents unable to produce such documentation could obtain a different class of driver’s license that allows for legal driving, but that can not be used as official identification, and, such people were also not able to register to vote. Since arriving here, I have also participated in several voter registration drives. As a volunteer registrar, I was instructed in the requirements for people to register to vote and the documentation that had to be included on the registration form. People without the various kinds of acceptable documentation proving that they were in the US legally did not qualify to register to vote. Thus, I take issue with the assertion that there is rampant voter fraud based on inadequate safeguards. I found Nevada’s voter registration approach straight forward and secure based on the documentation required to register. It seems that this opinion piece was simply an attempt to jump on the current partisan bandwagon that seeks to disenfranchise minority or non-driving voters by making voting requirements more difficult. A more objective and factual opinion piece would have been appreciated. Sincerely, tions on campaign finance and distinguish between individuals and corporations in the law.” The problem is that free speech is not free if the incumbent government satrapy can curtail its dissemination. Justice Anthony Kennedy explained this in his majority opinion in Citizens United v. FEC: “As a ‘restriction on the amount of money a person or group can spend on political communication during a campaign,’ that statute ‘necessarily reduces the quantity of expression by restricting the number of issues discussed, the depth of their exploration, and the size of the audience reached.’ … Were the Court to uphold these restrictions, the Government could repress speech by silencing certain voices at any of the various points in the speech process. (Government could repress speech by ‘attacking all levels of the production and dissemination of ideas,’ for ‘effective public communication requires the speaker to make use of the services of others’).” The fact the expenditure is coming from a group instead of an individual does not negate the First Amendment guarantee of the “freedom of expression by prohibiting Congress from restricting the press or the rights of individuals to speak freely,” because it “also guarantees the right of citizens to assem- ble peaceably and to petition their government.” An assembly is not just a crowd of people on the street, it is also an organization. Reid in one of this many diatribes on the subject said: “But the flood of special interest money into our American democracy is one of the greatest threats our system of government has ever faced. Let’s keep our elections from becoming speculative ventures for the wealthy and put a stop to the hostile takeover of our democratic system by a couple of billionaire oil barons. It is time that we revive our constituents’ faith in the electoral system, and let them know that their voices are being heard.” This implies the voters are too stupid to hear an open and free-wheeling debate and not be influenced by the volume or frequency of the message. Lest we forget, in the 2016 presidential election, Donald Trump was outspent by Hillary Clinton by two-toone — $600 million to $1.2 billion. Censorship is unAmerican and unnecessary. Cortez Masto should abandon this assault on free speech. Bruce Schmidt Sparks, NV Thomas Mitchell is a longtime Nevada newspaper columnist. You may email him at [email protected].

Richard “Richie” West entered the plea in U.S. District Court a day after the Nevada Board of Medical Examiners filed a 74-count malpractice complaint against a Reno doctor accused of writing the illegal prescriptions. West, 40, earlier pleaded not guilty to multiple gun and drug charges. He entered the guilty pleas for one count of conspiracy to distribute a controlled substance and one count of possession with intent to distribute oxycodone in exchange for all other charges being dropped. He faces up to 20 years in prison at his sentencing set for May 8 before U.S. District Judge Miranda Du in Reno. West, Dr. Robert Rand and seven others were arrested last April on charges of illegally distributing narcotics after federal agents raided the Jones-West Ford dealership owned by West’s father. Rand also faces one count of illegally distributing a controlled substance causing death. He has pleaded not guilty to all of the charges he faces and is awaiting a trial scheduled for April 25. Federal prosecutors said the drug ring operated from Rand has been held without bail in the Washoe County jail since his arrest. He currently still has his medical license, but he could lose it after the Board of Medical Examiners schedules a hearing on the complaint accusing him of malpractice and other misconduct involving 18 patients. November 2012 until April 2016, primarily out of the Ford dealership where West was accused of selling oxycodone and other narcotics out of his pickup truck in the parking lot. Dan Bogden, U.S. attorney for Nevada, said in a statement after Friday’s court session that prescription drug abuse is a major public health and public safety issue. “We are fighting collaboratively with our law enforcement partners pursuing dirty doctors and illicit pill mills to ensure that our communities remain safe and that we bring wrongdoers to justice and stem the rising tide of prescription drug abuse,” he said. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration launched an investigation in 2015 after receiving tips that Rand was writing prescriptions for cash-only payments. He is charged with causing the overdose death of Michael Yenick, 33, a former University of Nevada football player. Rand has been held without bail in the Washoe County jail since his arrest. He currently still has his medical license, but he could lose it after the Board of Medical Examiners schedules a hearing on the complaint accusing him of malpractice and other misconduct involving 18 patients. The names of the patients were not included in the complaint so it was not clear if one of them was Yenick. Rand’s lawyer, John Ohlson of Reno, said Friday he remains convinced the doctor will be cleared of criminal wrongdoing. Ohlson said in an email that he spoke with three representatives of the medical examiners’ board on Thursday and was told the board was “under pressure” to issue the complaint. He said that when he asked the board officials what they intend to do when Rand is acquitted of the criminal charges, he was “met with silence.” Rand has been practicing family medicine in Reno for 15 years since he was certified by the board, Ohlson said. “Until his arrest he conducted a full time family practice serving thousands of patients in need whether they had insurance or otherwise could pay or not,” he said. Russia supposedly hacked the U.S. presidential election in November to give Donald Trump the victory. The Russians may have tried to break into U.S. computers but it is hard to fathom how they could win the election for Trump. Moreover, it is even harder to see how such alleged hacking, as pundits and media news stories lamented, was “a direct threat to American democracy and U.S. national security.” U.S. MEDDLING IN FOREIGN ELECTIONS Be that as it may, the savvy social critic Noam Chomsky recently wrote a long article for online Truthout blasting the United States for “blatant interference in many foreign elections. The methods include financial support to preferred parties, the circulation of propaganda, assassinations and the overthrow of democratically elected regimes. “The U.S. has a long criminal history of meddling in the political affairs of other nations spanning more than a century and extending into all regions of the globe, including Western parliamentary countries.” Chomsky calls a spade a spade: “The United States is an expert in foreign-election interference. Much of the world must be collapsing in laughter.” He ironically concedes one difference: “By U.S. stan- dards, the Russian efforts are so meager as to barely elicit notice.” Foreign intervention included: in Asia, South Korea, the Philippines, Thailand, Indochina and Japan; in Europe, Greece, Italy, France and Germany; in Latin America, Guatemala and Bolivia. Perhaps the most sensational U.S. interference in foreign affairs was engineering the coup that overthrew Iran’s Prime Minister Mossadegh in 1953. Chomsky: “There is evidence of CIA involvement in a virtual coup that overturned the Whitlam Labor in Australia. The CIA apparently feared that Whitlam might interfere with Washington’s military and intelligence bases in Australia. Large-scale CIA interference in Italian politics has long been public knowledge.” Chomsky concludes that the highly praised Marshall Plan was “a tool for consolidating capitalism and spreading business rule throughout Europe after World War II.” “The French ambassador had warned U.S. Secretary of State George Marshall “of grim consequences” if the communists won elections in Europe: “Soviet penetration of Western Europe, Africa, the Mediterranean and the Middle East would be greatly facilitated. The dominoes were ready to fall.” Chomsky has given the America people a valuable history lesson. Jake Highton is an emeritus journalism professor from the University of Nevada, Reno.

He tailgates, cuts people off, narrates “play by play” during driving and stresses me out. He was involved in two accidents that I am convinced were his fault, although one was blamed on the other driver. Fortunately, nobody was hurt. Because of this I prefer to drive. The other day, he actually reached across and honked my horn while I was driving because somebody delayed a few seconds at the stoplight! We weren’t in a hurry and there was no need to honk. Our children were in the car. When I complained, he told me to “just get over it.” He gets so grouchy if I say anything about his driving.

His driving record speaks for itself, and he should not assume any function of driving when you are at the wheel, including honking the horn “for” you. You are entirely correct that what he did could have sparked a road rage incident. All that would need to happen would be for you to encounter someone who is as angry as your husband for a tragedy to happen. DEAR ABBY: I have been married for seven years, and my husband and I have had our ups and downs. He never thought he would have kids until he met me, and now we have two. After our second child, we agreed that we were done having children. I was OK with it because it seemed after each child our relationship became strained. Recently we reached the point of deciding whether we would either separate or work harder on our marriage. We decided to stick it out. The problem is, while we were in the process of getting back together, I became pregnant again. I’m afraid to tell him because I know how stressed he gets. I’m afraid it will be too much for him, and he will cut himself off emotionally from me and the kids. This wasn’t planned. We were using protection, but getting an abortion is something I could never do. I know this child will make things more difficult, but this child is a part of me and the man I love. How do I tell my husband I am pregnant in a way that may make the news easier to take? -- AT A LOSS FOR WORDS DEAR AT A LOSS: You should have told your husband about this the day you thought you “might” be pregnant. You can announce the news by telling him that this baby is a symbol of your love and reconciliation, but whether he will accept this explanation is questionable. You already know the news will not be warmly received, so get it over with before your pregnancy starts to show.

At age 83, her driving abilities have declined, but I know she’s bound and determined to keep driving as long as she’s alive. Nervous Nelly Dear Nelly, There’s no doubt that giving up driving can be a tough step for many elderly seniors, as well as a difficult conversation for concerned family members. While there’s no one way to handle this sometimes touchy topic, there are a number of tips and resources that can help you evaluate and adjust your mom’s driving, and ease her out from behind the wheel when she can no longer drive safely. Assess Her Driving To get a clear picture of your mom’s driving abilities, your first step – if you haven’t already done so – is to take a ride with her and watch for problem areas. For example: Does she drive at inappropriate speeds, tailgate or drift between lanes? Does she have difficulty seeing, backing up or changing lanes? Does she react slowly, get confused easily or make poor driving decisions? Also, has your mom had any fender benders or tickets lately, or have you noticed any dents or scrapes on her vehicle? These, too, are red flags. For more assessment tips see SeniorDriverChecklist.info. If you need help with this, consider hiring a driver rehabilitation specialist who’s trained to evaluate older drivers. This typically runs between $100 and $200. Visit AOTA.org/older-driver or ADED.net to locate a specialist in your area. Transitioning and Talking After your assessment, if you think it’s still safe for your mom to drive, see if she would be willing to take an older driver refresher course. These courses will show her how aging affects driving skills, and offers tips and adjustments to help ensure her safety. Taking a class may also earn your mom a discount on her auto insurance. To locate a class contact your local AAA (AAA.com) or AARP (AARP.org/drive, 888-227-7669). Most courses cost around $20 to $30 and can be taken online or in a classroom. If, however, your assessment shows that your mom really does need to stop driving, you need to have a talk with her, but don’t overdo it. If you begin with a dramatic outburst like “mom, you’re going to kill someone!” you’re likely to trigger resistance. Start by simply expressing your concern for her safety. For more tips on how to talk to your mom about this, the Hartford Financial Services Group and MIT AgeLab offers a variety of resources at TheHartford.com/lifetime – click on “Publications” on the menu bar, then on the “We Need To Talk” guidebook. Refuses To Quit If your mom refuses to quit, you have several options. One possible solution is to suggest a visit to her doctor who can give her a medical evaluation, and if warranted, “prescribe” that she stops driving. Older people will often listen to their doctor before they will listen to their own family. If she still refuses, contact your local Department of Motor Vehicles to see if they can help. Or, call in an attorney to discuss with your mom the potential financial and legal consequences of a crash or injury. If all else fails, you may just have to take away her keys. Alternative Transportation Once your mom stops driving she’s going to need other ways to get around, so help her create a list of names and phone numbers of family, friends and local transportation services that she can call on. To find out what transportation services are available in her area, contact the Rides in Sight (RidesInSight.org, 855-607-4337) and the Eldercare Locator (800-677-1116), which will direct you to her area agency on aging for assistance.
