Looking back on Sept. 11

In just over two weeks, the nation will honor the 25th anniversary of one of the worst days in the history of this country.

What is long-term care?

Long-term care refers to a range of services and support for people who need help with everyday activities over an extended period due to aging, chronic illness, disability, injury, or cognitive conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Veterans, seniors: Scarcity of low-cost housing

Housing of all types for all sorts of individuals seems to be a buzz-word these days. But seniors and veterans especially seem to be lacking when it comes to locating reasonably affordable residences in reasonably decent neighborhoods around the state. What’s a body to do?

Now, that’s a really good idea !

We generally expect our leaders to be educated, smart, and well-informed. More often than not, we support, elect, and follow those who appear to have an answer for everything. But good leaders don’t know everything. And the very best ones know that they don’t know everything.

THE LATEST
Organizations offer veterans job help

I’ve written about a few motion-­picture-based organizations that attempt to help individuals break into the movie business. Although they exist to serve a wider audience, they do, and may still have, veterans sections that work to help that specific segment of the star struck who have served in the military.

‘Spirit of Game’ guides cowboy action competitions

Bundy’s saga echos Shoshone sisters’ story

Mary and Carrie Dann never received a visit from the camouflage cavalry, and I’m not sure whether they would have welcomed the support of armed militia.

Nevada GOP moves boldly into new leadership role

The Nevada Republican Party has officially chosen for the top two ballot slots for the 2014 election cycle a Hispanic and a woman, two demographics Republicans have struggled mightily to woo in recent elections. Yet Nevada Republicans, in the June 10 primary, will still have an opportunity to blow this opportunity.

Spring sunshine makes everything bloom

Spring is definitely in the air. I can feel it, I can see it and I can smell it.

Museum visitors invited to get feel for history

Think back to your childhood field trip experiences to any museum, local or national — even international.

Journalists blow the Bundy story

There are flaws in news coverage. By its very nature, conflict is news and normality is not. We don’t report the banks that have not been robbed each day.

Reality of extended benefits can be harsh

Quick show of hands: How many of you think it’s OK for a parent to do their child’s homework?
