On the Moses Syndrome

By Karl Edward Neathammer

The “Moses Syndrome”: By observation, can be defined as: “A delusion characterized by the uncritical belief in the promises of “the One” to lead the “Others” to the Promised Land!

What do you want from your local Government ? Generally we answer that question with: Provide Fire and Police first. I suggest we have a more elemental need. We want the TRUTH. The residents of this community will see the wisdom of any service or project if it is based in the truth. The more the truth is shaded the more the residents will resist. Without truth there is no trust.

I will bring your voice to the Board of Supervisors. I am ready to begin the work of stoping irresponsible spending and deferred maintenance. We do this by retiring debt and creating responsible budgets with realistic priorities. I have the knowledge and experience to help produce more accurate project estimating and more complete purchasing efforts.

Please join us for a fun evening. This event and all others like it are open to the public. Please spread this invitation far and wide. Everybody is invited.

James Brown brought his funk to America with his hit Cold Sweat and the Reno Jazz Orchestra (RJO) brings the funk to the Nugget’s Celebrity Showroom, Saturday, February 27th, to celebrate their new CD “Bring Me The Funk of James Brown”.

Veterans Day, in my mind, is the most important day of the year. Even before “We” had a country, our military personnel and their families were making great efforts to secure our freedoms and safety. Without Veterans we would not have a country. For that we owe a debt of gratitude beyond any other.

The Genoa Cowboy Festival is just starting, and I suspect that’s where Calamity Jane would be spending her birthday. If not there, than maybe up in Virginia City: today marks the first ‘Flashback Friday’ of the year, when all of the museums have free admission. Tonight she could catch some laughs at Carson Comedy in the Nugget or at the Brewery Art Center for First Friday Improv. Saturday she'd likely trade in her six-shooter for a wine glass, because it is Wine Walk Weekend.
FRIDAY:

• ’Drink One for Dane’ Muscular Dystrophy Association Fundraiser at Dutch Bros Coffee
• Genoa Cowboy Festival: A variety of daytime events are FREE at the Cowboy Festival including: Chautauquas, Living History Tours, Musical Performances, Cowboy Poetry, Melodramas, and Historical Reenactments

The sixth annual Genoa Cowboy Festival will be held April 30 to May 2 in the Town of Genoa, Nev. Previous Cowboy Festivals have attracted thousands of visitors to the picturesque community located in the eastern foothills of the Sierra Nevada.

Genoa, widely recognized as Nevada’s oldest town, is a short 45-minute drive south from Reno and in close proximity to South Lake Tahoe.

Assemblymen PK O'Neill kicked off his tenure as Carson City's elected representative in the State Assembly by sponsoring a 'symposium' on the Nevada Academic Content Standards (NACS) for English Language Arts and Mathematics.

In a previous CarsonNow comment, Carson GOP Chair Maurice White called for Dr. Steve Canavero of the Nevada Department of Education to "be immediately dismissed for his public disrespectful conduct."

Now Peter Hennessey is calling James Milgram and Sandra Stotsky "widely known and respected experts on eduction standards."

With the holiday season now in full swing, it’s only appropriate that the Reno Jazz Orchestra (RJO) brings Jazz for the Holidays to northern Nevada for all to enjoy on December 20, 2014 at The Nightingale Hall - University of Nevada. Accompanying the 17 piece band of the RJO is award-winning jazz vocalist Madeline Eastman, international tap and ballet stars, the Reno Youth Jazz Orchestra, and other special guests who will all perform their holiday magic on Saturday night beginning at 7:30 pm.

He was a talk radio host on station KKOH in Reno for five years as well. He was fired due to outrage over comments he made to the effect that the United States should not have such a strong relationship with Israel.[1]

Law enforcement and public safety issues associated with Nevada Day in Carson City have been "unusually tasking" this weekend, said Carson City Sheriff Ken Furlong. While the parade itself was calm for the most part, there was a significant uptick in alcohol and drug related arrests after the parade ended and when afternoon turned to evening.

Some people, when they first see Lake Tahoe, think how it'd be nice to boat on top of the glass like water. Others imagine fishing on the lake stocked with big fish, while yet others think about how nice it would be to sit at the quiet and scenic shore and enjoy the sun and the view.

To nine year old Erline Christopherson, all she thought when first saw the crystal blue waters was how she'd like to swim across it. The dream was born that day in 1955.

I attended a League of Women Voters' meeting last week ( October 16th). I may be have been dreaming, but people were mostly civil to each other. It was a refreshing change from so many discussions I've observed over the past two years. . . mostly angry shouting matches. Marilee Swirczek wrote recently about the "shout-out" at WNC which turned unruly when some opponents of the City Center Project started pushing and shoving an invited guest. I'm glad I wasn't there.

There were a few surprise candidates who threw their hats into the ring for this year's elections on the last day of filing.

(Update: Change in the candidates for school board, below)

Stacie Wilke-McCulloch, who currently serves on the Carson City School Board, filed to run for Carson City Board of Supervisors Ward 2. She joins three other candidates looking to succeed current Supervisor Shelly Aldean, who decided not to run again. Brad Bonkowski, Dennis Johnson and Maurice White are the other candidates.

Dennis Johnson filed this afternoon as a candidate for Carson City Supervisor Ward 2, joining Brad Bonkowski and Maurice White in a battle to replace current Supervisor Shelly Aldean, who decided not to run after 10 years on the board. Liz Teixeira has also declared that she plans to run.

Johnson is one of the main forces behind the Nugget Project petition effort to put the question of whether to go forward with the City Center Project up for a public vote.

There are also two candidates who have filed so far for the three Carson City School Board seat up for election this year. Steve Reynolds has filed for reelection in District 5, and Joe Cacioppo, Jr. is running for the District 7 seat held now by Joanna Wilson, who is termed out. No one has declared yet for the District 2 seat currently held by James Lemaire.

Brad Bonkowski has announced that he plans to run for Carson City Supervisor Ward 2.

Bonkowski is the third candidate to announce a run for the seat being vacated by Shelly Aldean, who decided not to run for reelection after serving on the board of 10 years. Liz Teixeira and Maurice White have also announced their intentions to run for the seat.

Bonkowski released the following statement:

Liz Teixeira has announced she is running for the Ward 2 supervisor seat being vacated by Shelly Aldean. Her husband Marv served three terms as mayor of Carson City, and Liz is a former city hall employee.

That makes two announced candidates for the Ward 2 seat, with Maurice White announcing his candidacy last week.

Maurice White has announced that he is running for Carson City Board of Supervisors Ward 2 seat, currently held by Shelly Aldean.

Aldean announced recently that she will not seek a third full term.
