Issue: January 11, 2018
Morning, readers!
What do you know about the dark web? I admit, I didn't know much until I read this week's feature story about the underbelly of the internet. Read on to learn about the super-secret sites used by criminals—and political dissidents—right under our noses. Truly fascinating!
In other news: A fire at a local housing facility leaves service providers—and residents—scrambling; we pick apart the new cannabis ordinance in Chico and break down the rules for growing; and, speaking of cannabis, Arts DEVO takes a road trip to Shasta Lake City to visit a bonafide dispensary.
There's always more, so keep reading.
Until next time,
