    I recently graduated from the Citizen's Academy put on by the Carson City Sherriff's Office. We…read moreme6t every Wednesday evening from 6-9 PM for 10 weeks. This very informative Academy offered me the opportunity to learn about the various services offered and to observe a large array of situations that Officers encountered daily. Here's some of the services that I had the privilege to learn more: - Detention Center Tour (Learned the difference between Jail and Prison) - Coroner's Office - Detectives Division - Lab & Vault Units - SWAT - Search and Rescue (Volunteer) - AERO Squadron (Volunteer) - Mental Health (MOST) - Special Enforcement - Gangs Unit - Dispatch Center - School Resource Officer (SRO) - Volunteer Organization (VIPS) - Traffic - K-9 Unit - Patrol - Active Shooter/Post IHOP Education I very much appreciated the time that Sherriff Ken Furlong shared with us at the beginning of each session, and professional knowledge that his officers and staff shared with us during all their presentations. It was eye opening at times to realize how much goes on in greater Carson City and how big (Lake to Desert) this Country really is. Special thanks and gratitude to Colleen Schiller for coordinating all of this. My Wife Gayle used to run the Citizen Academy of the City of Walnut Creek and believe me, putting on programs like this are a LOT of much appreciated work. Thank You. Notes: 1. I hope that I'm never on the "other side" of any of these fine officers. I do try to convince my Wife that I'm a "Bad Boy", but she's not buying it. 2. Douglas County (where I live in Genoa) has a similar Citizen's Academy program. Please contact their Sherriff's Office for additional details. 3. The Carson City Sheriff's Office does a pretty good job communicating various crime issues and requesting information. I read about things like this daily via my newspaper subscription through the Nevada Appeal and the Record Currier. Douglas, Lyon, and Story Counties too. 4. Citizen's Academy presentations may or may not sometimes be biased towards the positive. I personally thought I received balanced presentations and was pleased that the officers seemed to want to be there, were straightforward about their duties, and were eager to answer questions. 5. If I were to suggest any improvements, maybe bring some Fire Department presentations into the mix would have rounded out my "uniformed services" knowledge. 6. Another goal of this Citizen's Academy is to recruit volunteers for various programs. There's some paperwork involved (which I have in hand), and I'm sure that when I do raise my hand, any volunteer efforts on my part will be well appreciated.

From a somewhat difficult circumstance, they made certain that I was informed, although they were not there for " my protection" per se, I felt that I was treated well and with a great deal of respect. They extend courtesy, professionalism, and work diligently to preserve the dignity of the in- custody individuals, and treat them with a great deal of respect as well. They are challenged daily I am certain, but continue to do their difficult jobs to meet the needs of our community very well. The Deputies in the jail are super- all of them. Thank you for all that you do. Of the names I recall, I would like to personally thank Deputy Carter, Deputy Oropeza, Deputy Garcia, and I am certain there were many more. From my family to you all- a warm and heartfelt thank you to you all!! Katherine

    I was her last week for a Legislative Day sponsored by Jewish Nevada. After meeting at the State…read moreCapital and enjoying Lunch at the Supreme Court, we all wandered over the Nevada Legislature ready to talk with various representatives about 4 specific bills of interest. When I worked in Industry years ago in California, our business association did this sort of thing. The procedure is the same. You dress up a little more and you go to the representative's office for maybe a 15 minute appointment. If you're lucky, you get to talk to their Chief of Staff, who does the heavy lifting. Or if you're not, the person is a no show, usually because a vote has been called or there's an unexpected caucus meeting. In between, the representative escorts you into their office for a pleasant conversation with questions and of course a heartfelt thank you. In our case, we were speaking with "friends" of our legislation, which also meant lots of smiles, softball discussion, and pictures for future publication. The State of Nevada version is a bit different than California as it's a smaller legislature, it's in Carson City, there's a huge Las Vegas area contingent, and it only meets for 4-5 months every other year. So you get situations like the one one Las Vegas representative I chatted with about his long term rental in the Carson Valley and what he did in his free time so far away from home. I suppose that also goes for a lot of the support staff, lobbyists, etc. who have to be here too. If you're local, it's good seasonal or retirement work, but only if you want several 60+ hour weeks concentrated within this relatively tight and robust schedule. It was great to be back to this sort of thing and to see parts of the legislative process (and energy) up close. I was also impressed with the professionalism of the building staff, particularly Security. They also have a nice little gift shop on the ground floor that is definitely worth a look during one of your waits.

    What an honor to be included in the field trip to the Nevada Legislature.

We were honored with a tour and some history of our state and our state government. We got the privilege to sit in on the assembly as they took care of some business and voted on items on the agenda. Some interesting history we learned today from the gentleman who gave us our tour of the legislature building and the grounds. The Nevada Legislature first met in 1861 at the Warm Springs Hotel. Once the Nevada State Capitol building was built the Nevada Legislature met there until 1971. In 1971 they built their own building.

    This marker is part of a series to gather an disseminate the history of Nevada women. According to…read morethe site, former Clark County State Senator Jean Ford found that there was an absence of information specific to Nevada women and sought to correct this important deficiency. This marker is one in the series. The marker is located on the site of the Nevada State House and is pink lettering on a white background with pink trim. It reads, "Felice Cohn. Lawyer & Co-founder Nevada Equal Franchise Society. Write Woman Suffrage Bill passed by Legislature 1911, 1913 and by voters 1914." Online, there is more information about this remarkable woman. Felice Cohn was born May 14, 1878, in Carson City, Nevada, to Morris and Pauline Sheyer Cohn. Felice enrolled at the University of Nevada in Reno for a year and then went to Stanford University. She attended Stanford during the years 1895-96 and 1896-97, but did not graduate. She studied law for several years and in 1902 she was admitted to the bar through the U.S. District Court, Ninth District, in Carson City. Vitally interested in the welfare of women, Felice Cohn became involved in suffrage rights for women in 1911. She was one of the founding members of the State Equal Franchise Society and chaired the legislative committee during the 1911 legislative session, lobbying effectively during that time to see the successful passage of the resolution she had drafted: "There shall be no denial of the elective franchise at any election on account of sex." People were amazed at the ease with which the resolution was passed, due in part to her efforts. There is much more. See https://www.nevadawomen.org/research-center/biographies-alphabetical/felice-cohn/, https://jwa.org/encyclopedia/article/cohn-felice, and https://suffragistmemorial.org/felice-cohn-1884-1961/.

    I went here again on Thursday, April 4, 2019 for the grand opening. It was a blast!…read more The were celebrities everywhere, from the Mayor of Carson City, to Miss Carson City with her crown and sash, to an awesome signer and violinist. There was an ice sculpture. There were fancy hors d'oeuvres and desserts. There was beer, wine, and water. The head honcho from Prestige Care, which has locations throughout the western US, came here all the way from Washington, I believe it was.. The were so many people I had trouble maneuvering to the front to see the speakers and even get water. The center went all the way to impress people. This event had been advertised for months in the Nevada Appeal. And it was packed. Good thing I came early, as I got the tour, which was quite extensive, out of the way, just in time for the ribbon cutting and speeches. I was exhausted at the end from so much walking. I guess I would compare this to a Yelp Elite event, except I have never been to one since I am (still) not a member of the Yelp Elite Squad. Boo hoo I guess. :-( The unit is a combination of skilled nursing facility (temporary rehabilitation with the goal to go home) with 80 beds (Medicare and Medicaid do cover that), and memory care assisted living with 54 beds (Medicare and Medicaid do not cover that). The memory care unit is a locked unit, with codes required to access the stairs, exits, or elevators. They take Medicare right now, but have not yet been approved for Nevada Medicaid. Approval is anticipated in a few months. The rooms are either semi-private, with an actual wall separating the two beds in a very large room, "jack-and-jill" rooms, with two rooms connected by a shared bathroom, or private. Some residents rent both jack-and-jill rooms, and use one as a sitting room. Most of the unit is not occupied, but all or almost all private rooms in the memory care assisted living part have been reserved. People come from as far away as Reno to live here, since the facility and staff are top notch. The units features wifi (which does not work yet according to the receptionist, so she would not give me the password--kind of snippy to me); cable TV; a hair salon; music therapy with bluetooth wireless headphones for each resident; a large monitor which is controlled by a tablet which can play videos, music, therapy games, etc.; a cornhole game; lounges, checkers; and a multitude of daily activities. There is a gym for supervised rehabilitation. There are also multiple kitchen and laundry units, but I am not sure if the patients use them or the staff does. All restrooms are gender-neutral. There is also a rooftop covered balcony area with a movable tile floor on wheels, so the individual tiles can expand in the summer without breaking. There are private dining areas should the family wish to dine with the resident. I was a little bothered by the fact there was no regular gym, chapel, library, or computer room. And the rooms did not feature an area for laptops like hotel rooms do. I know, many of the residents are older, but many are computer literate and will not be happy when this amenity is not available, especially in the future as Baby Boomers get older. The exits required a password to access in the memory care unit, which is a fire hazard. Another aspect which I was not thrilled about was the staff appeared mostly white. Not much diversity, but hey, this is northern Nevada. Parking was ample. There are actually two entrances: one on Washington Street by LabCorp, and one on Mountain Street. Last time I went, I did not know of the main entrance off Washington, so I went to the side entrance near Mountain, where no one was, lol. They make everyone exit onto Mountain though, which I don't know why, as there appears to be enough room to exit onto Washington Street. They staff, other than the receptionist at the end, appeared professional and knowledgeable. They have two doctors, which seems like too few for 134 beds.
