  • Berkheimer and Bernie – birds of a feather (updated)

    George Rebane Last Saturday’s (28may16) newspapers offered up dollops of leftwing wisdom from the great and the small, both issuing from what to me and mine has always been a Neverland of cogent thought.  From Hiroshima (pronounced Hiroshma, not Hero-shiima) we heard once more the words of our leader pleading for an Earth that never…

  • Memorial Day – 30 May 2016

    George Rebane We again gratefully contemplate the terrible price paid by those who gave their all so that America may remain the land of opportunity and the home of the free.  The words and photo from Memorial Day – 30 May 2011 still apply.

  • Alexander Rossi wins Indy 500 (updated 30may16)

    George Rebane Alexander Rossi of Nevada City won the Indianapolis classic as a rookie entry starting in the 11th position in the middle of the pack.  It was an unbelievably tactical race that brought Rossi across the finish line first while literally running on vapors that he and his team husbanded in the last few…

  • Sustainability and Single Payer Revealed

    George Rebane Sustainability is the established watchword cum battle cry of 21st century world transforming progressives everywhere.  Its most identifiable provenance was the 1992 UN conference which gave us the globalists’ plan for the future – Agenda 21.  Today sustainability is continually evoked as the raison d’etre for stultifying public policies that constrict our activities and…

  • Sandbox – 23may16

    [What can I say?  See the last 'Ruminations'.  gjr]

  • Ruminations – 23may16 (updated 27may16)

    George Rebane Yesterday we returned from a couple of weeks in Europe with friends visiting Czech Republic, Austria, Slovakia, and Hungary.  Somewhere I picked up massive cold augmented by the Hungarian Hack that I brought home on a miserable return from Budapest to SFO in three draining hops.  Air travel (we traveled first and biz…

  • Sandbox – 14may16

    [Time for a new sandbox for the weekend. The old one required too much scrolling to get to the most recent stuff. Anybody willing to give any odds on the Comey Vote. Several of you are so sure that Hillary will pull it off that it seems you're willing to bet the ranch on it.…

  • Sandbox – 7may2016

    [Administrivia – I will be 'out of the sandbox' so to speak for the next week or so where connectivity may be a mite iffy.  I trust that everyone will behave themselves accordingly 😉  gjr]

    George Rebane Last week we celebrated the tenth anniversary of TechTest at its traditional Survivors’ Breakfast held each spring at Tofanelli’s in Grass Valley.  TechTest is a four-hour merit scholarship examination, sponsored by the Sierra Economics and Science Foundation, used to award cash prizes to Nevada County seniors headed for STEM careers.  The awards are…
