Whatever Happened to Jury Trials? by Thomas J. Smith
A profound change is taking place in the way we resolve legal disputes in this country… and Texas is leading the way.
Legendary Spa Rises Like a Phoenix, by Julia Hayden
Burned to the ground myriad times, reincarnated and rebuilt, the former Hot Wells Spa and Resort is awaiting yet another reincarnation.
A Rock & Roll Photographer Exposed, by Jennifer Litz
Tom Wright’s photos of The Who and other rock stars fill the pages of Roadwork, Rock & Roll Turned Inside Out, offering an interesting glimpse into the behind-the-scenes world of sixties and seventies rock & roll celebrities in their heyday.
Rainwater Harvesting, the “Feel Good” Method of Saving Water, by Randy Lankford
At first glance, rainwater harvesting seems like a simple, cheap solution to San Antonio’s chronic droughts… but a closer look changes that perception.
Scene Inc.: Focus on the Business of Medicine, by Jennifer Chiesa
A look at a new type of doctor service, and at several companies working to prevent complications associated with diabetes.
PLUS: Booker’s Brier Patch
Charles Booker weighs in on the Paris Hilton jail fiasco, “Last month’s orgy of Hiltonia caused daily waves of nausea to wash back and forth across the country.” How he relates this rich kid’s predicament to the Democrats’ “nefarious tax scheme” is a lesson in analysis and wordsmithing.
Scene in SA Monthly, San Antonio’s premier city magazine since 1999, can be purchased as most HEB food stores, Borders Books and Music, Walgreens and other local retail stores.
