The state Board of Medical Examiners has issued an advisory opinion to licensed doctors who get into the medical marijuana business that says they enter "at their own legal peril." No prohibition from entering the business from the board, but plenty of trap doors outlined in the opinion: Violations of federal law, and possible discipline for failing to disclose salient information to patients.  "Board licensees act at their own legal peril as a shareholder, officer or managing memberof any...

Good morning, everyone. Jim Rogers would have liked the headline, above the fold, in the Review-Journal this morning: “Education champion dies at 75.” The story captures the man (yes, I contributed) as much as any few hundred words can capture anyone. For those of us in the KSNV family, who experienced every side of this complex, fierce man, it was hard to see him waste away this last year or so, still dedicated to his passion of bringing local news to the community he loved and to overseeing...
Good morning, everyone. Bad day for triskaidekaphobics, but a good day for those of us looking to the weekend to recover from the election. Yes, pundits even need to recover from elections with few surprises. May everyone have good luck today despite the date. On a comic notes to end the week, the state GOP, which was an agent of the Sue Lowden campaign and merged with the serial failures at Citizen Outhouse, posted and sent out a missive by Chairman Michael McDonald calling for unity. In the...
Good morning, everyone. As Kevin McCarthy seems poised to replace House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, anyone remember the last time he was in Vegas? I do. He was on the same event with a special guest who also is Nevada’s most notorious birther, the solipsistic Wayne Allyn Root, who says the president was a foreign exchange student, among other conspiracy theories. I wrote about it, “The Beginning of a Great Tradition.” Guess where it took place? On a lighter, albeit annoying note, how many of...
      TONIGHT'S RALSTON REPORTS: A losing med pot applicant; election post-mortem. DAYS UNTIL GENERAL ELECTION DAY 2014: 146       Good morning, everyone. In the cold, painful light of the morningafter, it still looks the same: After all the Sturm und Drang from a vocal minority of Republicans, a subset of the same hectoring, one-dimensional incompetents we have heard for years, the Establishment won. Smashingly. No, this was not the rebels vs. The Empire. This was a bunch of...
Good morning, everyone. I appeared on “All in With Chris Hayes”on Monday and talked about, among other things, the enabling of militia types and others by irresponsible politicians such as Sen. Dean Heller and Assemblywoman Michele Fiore. No, I don’t blame them for what happened over the weekend. But people such as the Millers get sustenance from being called “patriots” and being patted on the back by the likes of Fiore, who had the unmitigated gall to send out a missive Monday attempting to...
