The Nevada Appeal's "Silver Dollar" and "Wooden Nickel" feature recognizes positive achievements from the capital region and, when warranted, points out others that missed the mark.
SILVER DOLLAR: To the Douglas County and Carson City Sheriffs' Departments for good cooperation in taking two criminal suspects off the street this week. A fugitive who had been sought since December on charges of sexually assaulting a child was arrested in Carson City by deputies acting on a tip, and then a second man was arrested for haboring a fugitive.
SILVER DOLLAR: To former Sen. Rick Santorum for adding some excitement to the Republican presidential caucus in Iowa this week. Whether you're a Republican or a Dem, the Republican winnowing process has been an interesting one. It ought to get even more pitched now that Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann have voted themselves off the island.
WOODEN NICKEL: To the burglars who not only broke into a Gardnerville Ranchos family's home, but killed one of their four dogs.
