The Reno Hilton will reopen in 2007, as the Grand Sierra Resort, with a similar dual strategy...
...Democrats may have a chance to gain a congressional seat following Wednesday's U.S. Supreme Court decision that, for the most part, upheld the controversial redistricting orchestrated three years ago by former Congressman Tom DeLay.
