Every year federal and state courts issue countless free-speech decisions – some protective of free-speech values and some inimical to those values. During calendar year 2016, one of my favorite decisions came from the pen of federal appeals court jurist Bruce M. Selya.
Thankfully, Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval has delivered his LAST State of the State address. This guy has been absolutely the WORST possible governor for conservatives and Republicans in Nevada. A Democrat couldn’t have done more damage.
My husband and I were smart, we felt. We prepared for our retirement and we were doing very well on our fixed income in our new home that we moved to, away from the big, scary city southeast of us.

To the 911 operator, EMT’s and emergency room evening crews working on Jan. 7, THANK YOU for all your professionalism, competency, caring, etc., in responding to my husband’s health issues.
This town has a very big traffic problem that they are not solving. What they are doing is just putting a large bandage on it and trying to get us all to live with it. The people who came here from the city are used to traffic chaos/confusion.

This also should be done to Highway 160.
