Nearby: Sacramento, CAROCK SPRINGS—When officers arrested the man suspected of stabbing a Sikh truck driver inside a southwest Wyoming rest stop in September, he wanted to know why, according to Sweetwater County Sheriff’s Det. Stephanie Cassidy. They told Andrew Bzdak he faced an aggravated assault charge. That provoked another question, Cassidy testified Nov. 4 at Bzdak’s preliminary hearing on what’s now an attempted murder charge. Bzdak, she told the court, “answered something along the lines of ‘So he didn’t die?’” Cassidy described the circumstances of Bzdak’s arrest, as well as the stabbing that spurred it, at a Sweetwater County Circuit Court hearing. At the conclusion, Magistrate Ed Newell ruled enough evidence exists for Bzdak, himself a trucker from California, to face trial for attempted first-degree murder. The stabbing drew national headlines, in part because the driver who was attacked is a Sikh.

Nearby: Sacramento, CAThe evening of Oct. 14, on a dark, bumpy bus ride from Santa Barbara to Sacramento, college students from Allan Hancock College, Cuesta College, and Cal Poly were nervous. They were about to give their first public testimony. Riding with them, longtime environmental advocates shared advice and stories. This contingent of 35 of your neighbors took two days off from work and school and rode for eight hours on a bus with stinky seats and a broken bathroom to defend California’s marine life. Tribal leaders, community members, and college students endured the long haul so they could ask the California Fish and Game Commission to designate the tribally nominated Point Sal and Mishopshno state marine conservation areas. The proposals were two of many submitted during the first decadal review of California’s marine protected area (MPA) network. The network has more than 100 marine protected areas within state waters, managed by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Nearby: Sacramento, CAThe Assembly Speaker runs the lower house of California's legislature: the gavel, the flow of bills, and the committee assignments that decide which bills live. The office's own appointment page adds state boards and commissions, with more than 200 seats to fill. The job now belongs to Democrat Robert Rivas of the 29th district, elected by the full Assembly. That is a wide reach, and it still has edges. The Speaker leads one of several power centers in the Capitol, beside the governor, the Senate, and the parties' own floor leaders, and the limits show most clearly in what the office cannot do. Seeing both sides of the ledger explains how a bill really moves in Sacramento. Who Is the Speaker and How Does One Get the Job? Majority politics puts the person in the chair.
