Carson City free daily news summary for Dec. 1

Not much to sum up this morning, the first day the Nevada Appeal starts charging to read at least part of their news online. Just signed up, and it's a pretty backwards way of handing online subscriptions. Perhaps they've never heard the term "ecommerce" before. But enough about that.

Most of the news today that is locked behind the wall are stories we've already brought to you for free, such as the lawsuit alleging that state Sen. Mo Denis can't serve in the legislature while working for the Nevada Public Utilities Commission. Then there is the announcement that open enrollment for Nevada's prepaid college tuition plan begins today. And then there is this story about the committee that is looking at how Nevada funds education.

Students speak out in support of professor Tom Kubistant, whose human sexuality class has come under fire after a complaint by a student. They contradict Karen Royce's claim that they were required to masturbate. An independent investigator ruled that Royce's complaint was unfounded. For her part, Royce says she feels vilified for speaking out, and may appeal. Ron Knecht, member of the state Board of Regents and former Republican Assemblyman, says he's investigating this class, too, and feels it might cross the line between education and therapy.

Her husband, who was inside the restaurant but not wounded, didn't find out about his wife being shot until eight hours later because of all the chaos at the scene.
