  • The Great Escape

    George Rebane It gives little pleasure to remind us all that progressives are socio-economically ignorant, incorrigible, and unrepentant.  The great escape of companies from the once Golden State continues unabated.  From Nevada County we see the next stage departure of our formerly iconic Grass Valley Group as its remnants are merged with Miranda Technologies.  It…

  • Common Core Unexamined

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 25 April 2014.] Some years back the National Governors Association, realizing that America’s workforce was rapidly losing out in the global job markets, concluded that the country needed a new approach to K-12 education.  Its efforts to that end produced what…

  • A confused op-ed by The Union publisher

    George Rebane The Union’s new publisher, Jim Hemig, gave us his understanding of today’s media landscape.  In his 18apr14 op-ed he compared “the difference between a journalist and a blogger.”  His point was that a journalist, especially if he works for The Union, has available all kinds of sources for reporting news and uses them…

  • Con-Con and Common Core

    George Rebane RR, in its long suffering and dedicated effort to continue the posting of announcements of public import, your attention is invited to the following two. Con-Con or the Constitutional Convention as called for in Article 5 has become an item of some urgency for factions widely separated in their ideology and their view…

  • CABPRO Controversy Continued

    [CABPRO is going through some considerable internal dissension between its formerly uncontested Executive Director Mr Chuck Shea and its formerly uncontested Board of Directors.  Today both parties are claiming to be in legitimate control of the organization.  Ms Melinda Monaghan, one of the formerly uncontested directors wrote a letter to the CABPRO membership and asked…

  • Republican Rumblings, Democrats’ Delight – Addended (3mar14 update)

    George Rebne [This is the transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 28 February 2014.] It is election season again, and, frankly, it is becoming so that election season has become a perennial pageant.  With the troubles of Obamacare, Benghazi, IRS political targetings, DoJ’s fast and furious selective enforcement of laws, militarizing of federal…

  • CABPRO’s 25feb14 letter to members (updated 14mar14)

    George Rebane Ms Melinda Monaghan, member of CABPRO’s board of directors, sent me a copy of the 25feb14 letter the board mailed to its membership.  As most readers are aware, CABPRO has been going through some serious internal struggles for control between its Board of Directors and Mr Chuck Shea, its recent Executive Director.  Both…

  • Tea Party Candidate Forums

    George Rebane I’m told that in the desire to denigrate, the claptrap from the local Left has again confused the issue of upcoming candidate forums sponsored by the NC Tea Party.  Here is the information on the series of candidate forums that will take place at 6:30PM in Ponderosa Hall at the Nevada County Fairgrounds.…

  • FUE on CABPRO (updated)

    Do not exhibit your sore finger; for all to strike upon, and do not complain of it, for malice always pounds where it hurts the most.  No use to get angry, for this will only add to the general amusement; evil intent goes sneaking around to uncover the infirmity, and prods about to discover where…

  • The Nevada City Boardwalk (updated 5feb14)

    [This piece by Ms Jean Gerard was printed in the 4feb14 (paywalled) Union today.  Ms Gerard was not sure that it would be published, so she sent me the piece to appear on RR as her byline.  It is posted as received.  My own remarks are addended below.] Jean Gerard We’ve heard from several folks…
