text: Professor of New Testament On Faculty since 1992 Office: BGC 554 Phone: (630)752-5932 Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Education Ph.D., New Testament, King's College, The University of Aberdeen, Scotland, 1983 M.Div., Theological Studies, Fuller Theological Seminary, 1978 B.A., Political Science, University of California, Riverside, 1974 About Gary Burge As I teach New Testament at Wheaton, I want my students to grasp how knowing the unique world of the Middle East in antiquity shapes how we read the New Testament today. Jesus' cultural reflexes were different than ours and unless we understand him in his world, we risk misrepresenting his story. The setting of first century Palestine must be the lens through which we read the gospels. This has been the passion of my career since the 1970s and I want my students to inherit it. When Lebanon's tragic civil war broke out in the early 1970s, I was a student at the American University of Beirut studying politics and Islam. I never realized what an indelible mark this year would put on me as this dangerous national tragedy unfolded before our eyes. Since the university witnessed sporadic closures, I began studying at Beirut's Near East School of Theology (an Arab-Armenian seminary) and there for the first time was exposed to the technical study of the New Testament (under the guidance of Dr. Kenneth E. Bailey). It seemed that from here my life found its twin navigational markers: the New Testament and the world of the Middle East. Following graduation from Fuller Seminary in 1978, I completed a Ph.D. in New Testament at King's College, Aberdeen University, Scotland, under Professor I. Howard Marshall. In 1987 my research was published as The Anointed Community, The Holy Spirit in the Johannine Tradition (Eerdmans) and this launched a longstanding interest in the literature of John which continues to this day (see bibliography). But in addition, I have also retained my passion for the Middle East. Here too there has been evolution and specialization. Teaching the historical geography of Israel on site has today become a specialized interest in New Testament Galilee. But in addition, I have had the good fortune of being befriended by many Palestinian Christian pastors and learning with dismay about the suffering of the Palestinian church in modern Israel. In 1993 I wrote a study of this dilemma entitled, Who Are God's People in the Middle East? (Zondervan). I have also become active in an evangelical advocacy group, Evangelicals for Middle East Understanding, which works to facilitate dialogue between Arab and western church leaders. In 2003 I wrote a second, more thorough volume on Palestine entitled, Whose Land? Whose Promise? What Christians Are Not Being Told About Israel and the Palestinians (Pilgrim Press). This has been completely revised and will appear in a second edition in 2013. For more information, go to: www.garyburge.org.

The BCS commissioners and Presidential Oversight Committee on Monday approved the arrangement, which provides 12 berths in the six games.
Three of the six access bowls have been determined -- Rose, Sugar and Orange -- and the other three have yet to be named, although the Fiesta, Cotton and Chick-fil-A bowls are the leading contenders.
Those six bowls will operate on a rotating basis to play host to the semifinal games of the four-team national championship playoff, which begins in two years.
The champions of the Pac-12, Big Ten, Atlantic Coast Conference, Southeastern Conference and Big 12 each will receive an automatic berth in the access bowls.
The Big East would no longer receive an automatic berth into the major bowls as it does now. The conference would be included in the "Group of Five," which also includes Conference USA, the Mountain West Conference, the Sun Belt and the Mid-American Conference. The highest rated of those five conference champions would also be assured a berth in one of the six access bowls.
With Notre Dame also guaranteed a berth if it qualifies, it means seven of the 12 spots in the access bowls would be guaranteed. The other five slots would be selected on an at-large basis, based on ranking determined by a committee.
"Today's meeting is a unanimous ratification of what we announced last June in Washington, D.C.," Charles Steger, the chairman of the Presidential Oversight Committee, said in a release. "I'm delighted that additional details have been resolved and that everything is on track so fans can enjoy the postseason they've been asking for. College football, with its great regular season, is strong and popular -- it's about to get stronger and more popular."
According to an ESPN report, the Presidential Oversight Committee will authorize the commissioners to finalize a media rights deal with ESPN to televise the playoff. Sources say it is worth $475 million per year over 12 years.

Choosing a broad legal strategy with national implications, gay marriage advocates on Thursday urged the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down California's ban on same-sex nuptials and declare all such state laws unconstitutional.
In briefs filed with the high court, lawyers for two same-sex couples who challenged California's Proposition 8 used sweeping arguments in a bid to persuade the justices to invalidate the 2008 voter-approved ban on gay marriage. The court will hear the case on March 26 and consider the federal government's ban on same-sex marriage benefits the following day.
The brief stresses that Proposition 8 had no social justification other than to "stigmatize gay men and lesbians -- and them alone."
"Because of their sexual orientation," the couples' lawyers wrote, "plaintiffs and hundreds of thousands of gay men and lesbians in California and across the country are being excluded from one of life's most precious relationships."
The Supreme Court in December agreed to review a 2012 federal appeals court ruling finding Proposition 8 unconstitutional and whether backers of the law have a legal right to defend the law in the federal courts when the governor and attorney general refuse to do so.
In last year's ruling, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals took a narrow approach to invalidating Proposition 8, finding it unconstitutional because it stripped gay and lesbian couples of a previous right to marry in California. In theory, the ruling gives the Supreme Court the leeway to take a similarly cautious approach for now on a state's ability to outlaw same-sex marriage, granting the option to limit the stakes to just California, where more than 18,000 same-sex couples married in 2008 in the months before Proposition 8 passed.
But lawyers for same-sex couples made it clear they are hoping for a more complete victory in the Supreme Court, devoting relatively scant attention to the 9th Circuit's limited approach. Instead, they relied heavily on former San Francisco Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker's original ruling, which found Proposition 8 violates the federal equal protection rights of same-sex couples.
The strategy was deliberate, said Theodore Olson, former U.S. Solicitor General during the Bush administration and a key lawyer for the couples.
"We felt it was extremely important to present to the Supreme Court the entire panoply of this case," Olson said Thursday.
Proposition 8 lawyers last month offered their arguments to persuade the Supreme Court to overturn the appeals court and leave the same-sex marriage ban intact, saying the state's voters had a right to restrict marriage to heterosexual couples.
Among other arguments, Proposition 8 backers maintain states have the authority to define marriage for a variety of reasons, including its importance to procreation and child-raising. A number of anti-gay marriage groups filed briefs siding with ProtectMarriage.com, as did 20 of the 41 states that now outlaw same-sex marriage.
In response to Thursday's brief, Austin Nimocks, an Alliance Defense Fund lawyer for Proposition 8, said the Supreme Court should defer to the political process and "resist demands to prematurely end the national debate over the future of marriage."
Lawyers for the couples say gay marriage foes have failed to prove allowing gay and lesbian couples to marry would harm the institution of marriage. San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera on Thursday also filed the city's legal arguments against Proposition 8, saying it was aimed at "relegating gay couples to a lesser status."
Groups aligned behind the couples have until Feb. 28 to file further arguments against Proposition 8. The Obama administration is weighing whether to submit arguments with the high court by that deadline.
The Justice Department has taken the position in court that the 1996 federal Defense of Marriage Act is unconstitutional. Olson, who met with administration officials last month to urge them to side against Proposition 8, said he is hopeful the federal government will jump in against the California law.
"It would be important for us for the United States to make it clear this is a matter of importance ... to all Americans."
ProtectMarriage.com lawyers also met with administration officials to make their arguments that the government should stay out of the case.
In Thursday's brief, same-sex couples argued that Proposition 8 supporters do not have a legal right, or "standing," to defend the state law. If the Supreme Court agrees with that reasoning, it would leave the lower court rulings intact, likely opening the door for same-sex marriages in California.
However, Theodore Boutrous, a lawyer for the couples, said they would prefer for the Supreme Court to "decide the case on the merits."

the thing I m watching now Nor vs Sui, this is the curling??
and why they have uniforms like pyjamas?
Wow. The women's final between Canada and Sweden was fantastic!!! Both teams making awsome plays, a really even match throughout.
Both capitains had one really bad mistake, but Canada's timing was worse: it happened on the 10th end, and allowed Sweden to score 2 points and take it to an 11th end.
And Sweden won!!
How do I join the Anette Norberg fanclub?
OT: Norway's choice of pants is questionable, at best, but their capitain is some eye candy...
That bronze medal game is our last Sebastian Kraupp fix until worlds. Let's make the most of it.
Before anything, the men's final isn't over yet, but I have the need to state this:
The Bear is the Man.
Get out of town!!! At the same age as Noreberg and for the level of her game, I was taking her to be really experienced at the internanional level. She was cold blooded bad *** (compliment) at the match! She''ll be girl's Kevin Martin by Sochi!
Oh, yeah.
The Bear is the Man!! Congatulation Martin's boys on the gold medal!
I didn't watch the last moments, did Norway shake hands? Canada was far superior through the whole match, more than the score showed.
Guess Kevin Martin won't be having any discounts on Thomas Ulsrud's tanning salons (bring the old smilies back!!)
He is indeed and a really nice guy to boot!!
Had the pleasure about six years ago when Lively (Megan Duhamel Territory. ) hosted one of the events that make up the Grand Slam of Curling and Kevin's just a class, class act. When that final shot had been made, after yelling "FINALLY!!!", I turned to Dad and said, "Well Dad, you can now say you've met an Olympic Champion." The grin on Dad's face got even bigger after he realized what I'd said. LOL!!!
JohnnyMo also made history tonight. He is the first player to win Junior World, World and Olympic Championships. I can't believe w/all of the great players that have come through the Jr ranks around the World, that he's the first!!
Also loved the look on Kevin's face when Brian Williams told the team that thanks to their Gold Medal, we're now the Record Holders for the Most Gold Medals won by the Host Country of a Winter Olympics. His eyes just widened and you could tell he was saying some things to himself that would have gotten him in big time trouble w/the censors if he'd said them aloud. Oh, there were also five Lucky Loonies buried in the ice at the Curling venue. The crew there had dug them out and gotten them to the Studio in time for Brian to give them to the Guys. Brian was teasing them, "Now, remember Guys, don't spend these." as he was giving them out to them.
Oh and beep beep...Yes, everyone shook hands w/one another.
Still can't get over the shots that JohnnyMo made tonight. Talk about being on FIRE!!!
Been waiting far too long to post this next sentence anywhere online and I'm getting choked up just typing this...
Congratulations Kevin Martin and Team!! Olympic Champions AT LAST!!!!!
A great win for Martin, even if the beginning of the game had some minor mistakes from him. The Norwegian skip had bigger problems, mistakes and plain out misses. The reast of the Canadian team played great, Morris made great shots. Could not happen to a better bunch of guys
Also, since I missed the game because there was a huge show in town
(Wilco played only good songs for 2h30 thanks to a generous uninterrupted 60 minutes encore, this band completely rocks in concert, you must see Wilco live, it was better than Radiohead or Muse, and those bands are just insanely good live.)
I had to watch the feed on the ctv olympic site.
Whoa. No commenting, just the sounds (and game conversations) of the game. Awesome experience. You actually lived the whole game with the guys.
They made us very proud. 13th gold of the games, just incredible to win most gold these games. And to think we had so many 4rth and 5th places, it could (should) have been a bigger haul for Canada.
Sadly for Bernard, she's from Alberta. In order to win the Canadian Championships, she has to win provincials first, and winning the Alberta title is pretty tough. Then at Canadians, you have to win against all other provinces plus the defending Canadian team from the previous year. The best she did before is making the final, losing to a former world champion.
So silver is actually a great accomplishment.

I'm not asking out of politeness, all curling players are absolutely polite, but as when the loing team recognises the opponent's superiority and shakes hands with them before the game is over recognising their superiority,
Just looked at the score, it's exactly what happened, they didn't finish the 10th end.
No, it's not a great accomplishment. It's an AWESOME accomplishment!!!
For Cheryl and her Team to come out and perform like that, when they've never gone to Worlds or faced most of those teams before...So proud of her and just shows how strong the Alberta teams are. In both Mens and Womens play.
Dad and I have been laughingly saying that all the Teams that made it to this year's Brier must have been sitting back watching Kevin and Boys play and at the same time, saying to the Curling Gods..."Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for letting Kevin win The Trials so we don't have to face him next weekend!!!"
I wonder if Uncle Ben's doubled their donation to the Food Banks after last night's win. You don't win an Olympic Gold Medal every day after all.

Embattled lawmaker who alleged Boston bombing was government plot resigns
"Republican Representative Stella Tremblay was an embarrassment to her constituents and to the entire State of New Hampshire, her resignation was long past due. It is telling that while Rep. Tremblay has finally resigned there has yet to be any kind of condemnation from Senator Kelly Ayotte, Republican Majority Leader Jeb Bradley, or Republican Senate President Peter Bragdon for her vile and chilling comments. Under their leadership the New Hampshire Republican Party has become synonymous with radical Tea Party extremism, and there has been an epidemic of shockingly inappropriate behavior by New Hampshire Republicans."

The main purpose of a hat is to protect you from the sun, rain or cold. This means that there are different hats required for different seasons. For summer use, a ball cap works ok, but they usually do not shed water, nor do they protect the ears. If you have sensitive skin, keep this in mind. A wide brimmed had takes care of these issues, but the back tends to hit a large back pack. Bill's ChoiceI have an old REI wide brimmed hat that I have used for years, and also have an "Ultimate Hat" that seems to work better with a backpack. While rather pricy, it is crushable, it floats, and is guaranteed for life.

Blueberry Caramel Sauce
A few weeks ago when I was making a batch of blueberry syrup I idly thought that the basic ingredients of the syrup were a lot like a caramel sauce with the sugar and water and got me to wondering what a blueberry caramel sauce would be like. I mean if water, sugar and blueberries are good then how cold adding more flavour by caramelizing the sugar first not make things better? Alas, I got distracted by something before I could write the idea down and I promptly forgot about it.
Recently I came across a recipe that called for a blueberry caramel sauce and I knew that I just had to make it! Over the holidays I made a cranberry caramel sauce for the cranberry turtle bars that I made. For the cranberry caramel sauce I just threw the full cranberries into the caramelized sugar and waited for them to burst in the heat and then I left them in the sauce. For the blueberry sauce however I wanted to have a smooth texture so I decided to puree the blueberries before adding them and after letting everything simmer for a while, I strained the large solid bits from the caramel sauce before returning it to the heat to thicken a bit.
The blueberry caramel sauce turned out unbelievably well! After it cooled down it thickened up nicely and it had the most amazing aroma of blueberries. After just one taste I was hooked and found it difficult to not finish it all right then and there! The deep amber caramelized sugar adds a real depth of flavour that makes this sauce truly special. It would certainly be great to serve this straight up over vanilla ice cream or vanilla yogurt but I had something else in mind for it entirely.

- Biography
- I'm a very imaginative person. My minor case of autism contributes to that.
From what my parents say, I never spoke when I was very little, but now, I can talk quite a lot. In fact, sometimes my siblings find it annoying when my voice gets too loud.
Ever since I was little, I loved to play games. When our family had a performa, Macintosh computer, I would very frequently put in a CD and play the games on it.
It wasn't until a couple years ago when I found interest in game making. The games I would prefer to make in the future would be adventure, logic, and platformer games. I really have no interest in games that include violence, blood, gore, or profanities.
I also do astronomy as a minor hobby. I have an amateur telescope and I occasional like to see through it. Both at the sky and at faraway locations upon the horizon.
Also about two years back, I started gaining interest in Pokémon. And boy is it wonderful!
I eventually found this site (I don't remember how) and I wanted to be a part of it. And it's great!
I currently spend a lot of my time in the Poetry section here.
I also met a really great girl here. MeerFall.

Hello Folks.
I need program that can help me in rather easy way make translations of videos.
Idea is: i get some video, i can watch it and translate on the fly. If i don't like something I can easily rewind back and do it again. Is there anything like that on Linux?
Usual video editors are welcome, but them must allow microphone as input file or something.
I intend to make many videos translated, and they range from 20 minutes to 2 hours. I can't do sync translation just yet.

Reminds me of the Royal Rainbow from the PS2 game Katamari Damacy.
Leprechauns... Irish... Drunks... Rainbows... Alcohol... THERE ARE TOO MANY CONNECTIONS HERE OH MY GOD
I knew I had too much cyan!
Clouds are such light weights. Ha. I'm clever.
Didn't anyone tell him that when you combine Skittles and Tequila, you re-taste the rainbow? Edit: Word filter fail
Gives a whole new meaning to "Taste the rainbow."
So that makes that pot o' gold I found made of... OH MY GOD. Then again, it would explain that alcohol smell on me pot o' gold!
hahah that's hilarious!!
Not in for one. This shirt hits a little too close to home ... except the cloud isn't weeping uncontrollably, and there aren't at least half a dozen other clouds glaring at it with scorn and disgust.
perhaps that's how rainbows are made, but where does the lightning bolt come out of them?
They copied a warehouse comic. Although still funny. http://warehouse.carlh.com/comic/theWAREHOUSE_comic_215.jpg
I wish this was chosen during its derby... How can I show it off to friends now that school is over?
awww hek yeaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh This is me the first time I got drunk...except there were no rainbows...and I was in my underwear on the bathroom floor, crying...

Copied a lot of things, imo. Never liked this shirt design from the beginning.
If overconsumption of alcohol results in the magical ability to puke rainbows, sign me up! It's got to be one of the greatest party gags ever.
Is it possible to get some type of confirmation as to what type of alcohol clouds drink?
This design inspired me to become a raging alcoholic.

I wouldn't worry about that. Rocky's gonna eat lightning and crap thunder.
EPIC! hmmm, Oregon, we have too much fun. At least we're rainbow makin'.

I've seen this same concept like 10 times over....not very original
I don't care if it's original, the colors and concept are finally done perfect. I bought it within 7 seconds, before 007 could even defuse the bomb.
This cloud clearly has manic depression. Someone should show him the silver lining.
They say that what goes up, must come down but in his case it looks like what goes down must come up!
i always suspected science was wrong on this one.
oh yea in for 2... this is a great festie shirt.
I'd say it's a variation of the earlier shirt.woot Abraca-huagh(sic), where the top hat was puking up rabbits and such. Also, I think that vomiting rainbows isn't necessarily a "it came from one guy" idea. Just be glad the shirt isn't about rain or hail.

Buy one? Just a thought...

Here's a fun fact: William Wallace was 7 feet tall, could shoot balls of fire from his eyes and bolts of lightning from his ar..
Last time I tried this the only color that came out was orange.
THANK GOD i can wear this t-shirt.
I've totally been there before! Rock on little cloud!
Better get some beano for that.
Very happy this won. I was a tad upset when it didn't print last time (ok, so it's not the first of its kind, but it's the only one I've liked). Cloudy with a chance of alcohol poisoning.
Where are the rest of the colors ROYGBIV? This vomit is only RYI. OGBV can haz sadness.
I wish my "rainbows" were this awesome...Mine are not so lovely.

One birthday, drinks came back up in reverse color order. Might have been a skittle or two, but no cloud. ;-)

Ondra has become one of the more recognizable names in hard sport climbing after a flurry of achievements in recent years. The 20-year-old Czech made the first ascent of a 5.15c in October of last year when he established Change in Norway. He also has a number of hard onsights under his belt, including over a dozen 5.14c's as well as numerous 5.14a and 5.14b routes. Last fall, on a trip to the Red River Gorge, Ondra onsighted both Pure Imagination and Golden Ticket in a single day, both originally rated 5.14d. However, Ondra downgraded each of them after his ascent, suggesting 5.14c for each.

Copyright © Amanda Cass All rights reserved my images may not be reproduced in any form without my written permission.
the lovely and talented Catherine has been been kind enough to write a beautiful poem to go with this artwork :)
The first is for dreams
the hope I hold onto
that swing me and move me
in a dance of timeless joy
and makes my vision clear to see
The second is for love
in all it's countless forms
a holding of hands, a tear, a smile
a touching of minds, a melting of hearts
a lightness of being that undo every trial
The third is for courage
to say and do the absolute truth
for it makes my garden a sight to behold
gives me strength to undo the stones
that threatens to break down my mould
The fourth is for movement
torwards where my soul might lead
and the conviction of following through
in all the moments of this beautiful life
'do good and it shall be done to you'
These are the strings
I want to compose my notes with
in every rise and fall of me
in whatever life might bring
I will fly, I will breath
and my song I will sing

Epping boy wondering 'Where's the beef' after his new steer runs away
The steer that Ryan planned to name Panda never made it into the family's fenced-in field and has been on the loose ever since.
Dozens of family members, friends and neighbors have done their best to hunt for the wayward steer. It's been spotted a few times, but no one's been able to catch it, even though it has a halter and rope hanging from its neck.
Police have also been called in to help. The most recent sighting came Tuesday night when a Rockingham County sheriff's deputy saw the steer on the Rockingham Recreation Trail, not too far from Ryan's home in the area of Fremont and Jenness roads. The deputy wasn't able to catch it either.
"It's so frustrating. We were so close," said Ryan's mother, Mary.
He used every dollar he earned and collected for his birthday, Christmas and other occasions.
Ryan got a deal on the calf from a farm in Dover.
Ryan is facing a June 1 deadline to enter his steer in 4-H for this year's beef cattle shows.
"He's out the cow and out the money," his mother said.
If he's not able to enter fairs this year, Ryan said he'll probably just help out his friends when they show their animals and try again next year.

Thanks to Chopsaki for the submission.
This may have come up because Stephen King has made a sequel to the Shinning with the little boy all grown up. I think it's set to be released next year called Doctor Sleep. WB might be thinking there is enough interest to milk the cash cow a little more.
Wow, just WOW! That may just be the worst synopsis for a book I've ever read. As for the possibility of making a prequel and/or sequel to The Shining...again, HORRIBLE!
um, Hobbs: did you actually read the article? You know the one above your comment, where Stephen King talks about Doctor Sleep? The one with the clip of him reading from Doctor Sleep?
Anyway: Prequel/Sequel are Horrible ideas either way for such a classic. Even though Stephen King hated Kubrick's version, it was still a masterpiece and scared the feces out of me as a teen.
See...before the suits in crappywood were stupid and non-original...now they are just desperate.
Stupid stupid stupid.
Ya know what wouldve been better, lol!!!
Danny hooking up with Charlene Mcgee...seriously, Dudes....sounds alot better than a "Prescient Cat", not knocking the cat, just saying Danny and Charlene meeting up would be cool beans!!!!
This Dr Sleep book sounds like one helluva story....but the pre-quel idea is just dumb...see The Exorcist:the beginnig.

That is the reason I was left here to gard the baggage. Our Brigade left here soon this morning. They are gon towards Newborn, NC. They carried five days rations. I expect they will see the Yankees before they are gonn long. Burton give orders before they left that no man was to be taken prisoner. If they was, they would be hung as soon as Old Butler got them in his possession. Butler hung one of our men in Elisabth Citty sometime last yere. The reason he done that the man was one of gurilla class. They will tell any sort of tail to keep our men from going to the Yankees. It is thought that Old Lee will make a move towards Maryland as soon as he can in the spring. If he marches his army across the Potomack River again he will break up the arm. To my opinion ther is thousands of the suthern men that swears that they will never cross the Potomack again. If they are forced they will stay there after they get there. That is my motto and I must see you again befere we start. I think sometimes will start home

Can the City of Portola give preference to local contractors?
Diana JorgensonThe subject of whether the city could give preference to local contractors, even when their bid is not the lowest, first came before Portola's City Council during discussions about the A15 road improvement project scheduled for this summer.
Mayor Pro Tem Juliana Mark brought the subject up and referenced the local economy as the motivation. Since then, City Attorney Steve Gross researched the city's possibilities and presented a concise report to the council at its Feb. 11 meeting.
Gross explained that whenever there are state or federal funds involved, a bidding process is mandated by program rules and the bid has to go to the lowest responsible bidder. The A15 road project, as well as most of Portola's larger-scale projects, involved both state and federal funding.
Where grant money is involved, no preference can be granted. The local contractor must also be the lowest bidder in order to have the bid awarded.
Beyond that, Gross explained, there were two types of cities in California. Most cities, Portola included, are general law cities, and as such, conform to state laws governing them. These laws state that they have to award bids to the lowest bidder, no preference given, on any work project over $5,000.
There are exceptions to competitive bidding — such as for professional services like legal, financial, engineering, etc. — but primarily any work on sewers, streets, public buildings, streams and rivers require the public bidding process.
If the city of Portola drafts an ordinance in favor of preferential treatment for local contractors, it could do so on projects less than $5,000.
"We could, if we made some adequate findings, adopt a preference for local businesses in some of our contracting, but it's going to be very limited because we're bound by state law," Gross said.
Other cities, like San Francisco and Truckee, are charter cities and can, if so specified in their charters, exempt themselves from competitive bidding. Any city can become a charter city by drafting a charter and having it go to ballot for the residents to approve.
The charter becomes a limitation of governmental powers, said Gross, and gives the city the ability to choose not to require a bidding process. Charters can be long and involved or very short.
"It's not a panacea," said Gross, "but it allows for flexibility."
Any time the charter is amended, it must again go up for a vote.
Charter cities are more likely to have a local preference ordinance. Gross reported that the preferences given to local businesses range from 1 percent to 10 percent, with 1 percent being the most common because cities could balance the higher purchase price by the sales tax generated.
Beyond that, Gross pointed out that the city would have to pay the higher cost out of its General Fund. "You have to pay for the higher bid somehow."
He encouraged council members to research charter cities further, citing the League of California Cities' website as a good place to begin.
Otherwise, the discussion was inconclusive. Since the A15 project was not a candidate for local preference for bids, the urgency of the subject was gone, said Gross, and he left the council to mull over the general city/charter city alternatives and whether there are sufficient opportunities to use such a tool to justify drafting one as a general law city.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

Hopes dashed for a new county jail
Five counties could be awarded $20 million to build a new jail, but Plumas won't be among them. That's because the county can't afford the $1 million match that the state requires.
Back in January, both Sheriff Greg Hagwood and the Board of Supervisors were hopeful that a combination of property and personnel time could total the magic million-dollar number, but this month reality set in.
During the July 9 and 16 board meetings, the sheriff and supervisors discussed whether to pursue the jail grant.
"We would like a new correctional facility," Hagwood told the board July 9, "but can we realistically commit ourselves to a multiple six-figure check to the state?"
On July 16, he got his answer. The supervisors said the county doesn't have the money.
"We are already $1.5 million away from balancing the budget," Jon Kennedy said, and added another $500,000 is needed to put county employees back to work full-time.
"There's no big pot of money sitting anywhere," Kennedy said. "We shouldn't be pursuing it at this time."
What the county is going to pursue is asking the State Department of Corrections to create a new category for the next round of jail construction funding.
Under the current round of grand funding, Plumas is lumped with 36 other counties in the "small county" group. This group includes counties with populations up to 200,000, such as Shasta.
"We are competing with counties 10 times our size," Hagwood said.
He and the board hope that a new category for very small counties would come with a lower match requirement, or one that could be paid over time.
During a conversation after the meeting, Hagwood said he understood the county's situation, but was disappointed at the lost opportunity.
He said he had been talking with officials in the state correctional system and they were aware of the need for the new jail and wanted the chance to award the money to Plumas.
The fact that the county needs a new jail is not a secret. The grand jury has repeatedly reiterated the need for a new jail and, until recently, the facility was operating under a consent decree because of poor conditions.
Hagwood doesn't blame the current board of supervisors for the situation; he looks to the past.
"Prior boards could have put aside $100,000 per year," Hagwood said. "They knew this has been a problem since 1984. Now we find ourselves with an excellent opportunity and we can't pursue it."
The sheriff and the supervisors had hoped to purchase the former Trilogy Magnetics building on Mill Creek Road from Plumas Bank. They envisioned housing the sheriff and probation departments in the existing structure and building a new jail.
The bank sought $2 million for the property, but it only appraised for $1 million. And only the portion of the 4.5-acre parcel that would be used for the jail could be considered for the match, leaving the county far short of the necessary match money.
So when the grant applications go out this week, Plumas won't participate.
"Eventually we will be successful," Hagwood told the board July 16 and thanked the supervisors for their support and encouragement.

Recent Bar Harbor and Mount Desert Island Reviews
Awesome House
We had previously stayed in Otter Creek and were so happy to find a house in a great location and with all the amenities we wanted during our vacation. The house is the perfect size for two people; we had lots of room and found the living area very comfortable. The house has lots of windows and gets lots of great light. The kitchen is fantastic; it has a great layout and was so much fun to cook in. The master bedroom is quite comfortable as well and we appreciated the black out shades which eliminated any of the street light. Bathroom is a good size and has a nice large window. Back deck is nice for breakfast or just hanging out for pre-dinner drinks. And the hammock in the backyard is fun too.
We were nervous about being so close to the street. While the house is close, there are lots of trees in front that still make it feel private. And it was nice being a 2 minute walk from The Burning Tree, our favorite restaurant in Maine, so good we went twice this trip. And being in Otter Creek makes it easy to get to any Acadia main attractions or trailheads.
We would definitely stay at this house again. Thanks Geoff and Pennington family!
