2. The annual Fall Dance Festival returned to the University of Nevada, Reno last week. The showcase at the Lombardi Dance Theatre featured performances from 11 student choreographers and 26 student dancers. This year's festival included five evening-length productions between Nov. 16 and Nov. 20 and was completely sold out. (Nevada Today)
3. A yellow burn code was issued by the Washoe County Health District on Monday. While the burn code is in effect, residents are advised to avoid the use of wood-burning devices for at least 24 hours while pollution in the area decreases. Houses where a wood-burning device is the primary source of heat can receive an exemption through the Air Quality Management Division by calling 775-784-7200. (KOLO)
