On Carson City's Web site today is a scrolling list of city employees who have served at various capacities in the nation's military branches.

As reported in the Nevada Appeal and Carson Now, Doppelganger’s bar and restaurant downtown has new owners, and will be changing its name.

Monday morning's Carson City commute may bring with it some debris-dodging following Sunday's wind and rain storm. The Carson City Public Works Department will have no doubt worked throughout the night clearing the streets. Give 'em a wave for their efforts if you see them on the streets.

The Carson City road construction report for the week of Oct. 18-24 continues to highlight the Roop Street widening project which is expected to be finished by the end of the year. The following impacts are expected this week:

— Roop Street is now open between William Street and Robinson Street.
— Roop Street will have intermittent lane restrictions from Robinson Street to Washington Street for striping.
— William Street will have intermittent lane closures at Roop Street on Monday - Friday, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. for westbound traffic.

Here's the Carson City road construction report for Monday Oct. 4 through Sunday Oct. 10.
Before we get into the list, a shout-out is in order to all the motorists out there who've kept their cool over the past few months. Bottlenecks and delays are never any fun. If anything, the local road projects, including the Roop Street quagmire, may have taught us to get up a little earlier and exercise some patience, which is a good thing. Mindfulness can never do a person wrong.

With that, here's what's lined up for this week:
