  • Cirino’s Nevada City, RIP

    George Rebane The Progressive Plague that has ravaged California for some years, and with every passing day is becoming even more virulent, struck down a local landmark establishment.  In Nevada City Cirino’s Bar & Grill is shutting its doors according to owner Jerry Cirino because “The state and federal government has taken the most valuable…

  • Administrivia – taking leave of The Union

    George Rebane All good things must come to an end, and the addition of some new responsibilities required me to drop something.  On 4 December 2012 I sent the following email – titled ‘Rebane’s column, -86-‘  -  to The Union’s publisher and managing editor.  I appreciated their cordial replies, and now look forward to being…

  • RL Crabb, Heeeelp!!

    George Rebane Well, my cover is finally blown.  RR has often been accused by our Lefties as trying to pass itself off as an ‘oh so smart’ blog.  But no more.  My nemesis came this morning when I opened the Tuesday Union to its op-ed page to enjoy Bob’s regular ‘It Takes a Village Idiot’…

  • Voter fraud getting into full swing? (updated 2nov12)

    George Rebane Let me start by inviting our progressive pals to post links to reports of rightwing instigated voter fraud because nationwide the left is off and running.  The latest comes from Las Vegas where the unions are stuffing ballot boxes, voting for the old and infirm, and hauling their own members off their jobs…

  • Slapdown from ‘The Middle’

    George Rebane Saw Bob Crabb’s latest contribution in this morning’s Union – therefrom it is filched and displayed below for all to see. Oh, the slings and arrows that penetrate most deeply come not from the enemy, but alas, the friend.  This piece of contemporary art recalls an ancient ode from another Bob who lived…

  • Agenda21 is NOT a conspiracy (updated 17oct12)

    There is no limit to what you can accomplish if you don’t care who gets the credit. ― Ronald Reagan George Rebane Last Tuesday’s Nevada County Board of Supervisors meeting achieved its larger purpose that was promoted by a lot of mostly conservative attendees belonging to organizations like CABPRO and the local Tea Party.  A…

  • Agenda21 – Exhibit A on display locally (updated 7oct12)

    George Rebane The Left and their supporters deny the existence of UN's Agenda21 and their part in promoting its precepts.  That's to be expected of global collectivists to whom local control is anathema.  What is more insiduous is when such precepts under the "sustainable development" banner of the ICLEIs – the regional and local Agenda21…

  • What makes a good community? (addended 25sep12)

    George Rebane It all depends on your definition of how is it ‘good’ for whom.  The notion (meme?) of assessing and/or building a good community started as a thread in my ‘… = Sleazebag’ post.  But it deserves its own venue, because the arguments from the Left and Right will reveal much of what is…

  • Journalist ≠ FUE = Sleazebag

    George Rebane These pages rarely mention Jeff Pelline or comment on his work.  The exception here is pursuant to an email I received this morning that contained the most recent egregious posting on Pelline’s blog that again misrepresented and attacked me. For newer readers not familiar with the gentleman pictured nearby, Pelline was at one…

  • Local Control of Business Development – we’re basically screwed

    George Rebane Last Friday I attended a part of what has now become institutionalized as a biennial ceremony that passes for efforts to develop business in Nevada County.  I think I have attended about five of these during the years we’ve lived here.  This one featured the elected city councils and the county’s Board of…
