L-E headline: "Can MCSD afford John Phillips’ price? * Two board members say interim costs too much with cuts, furloughs " -- Board members who support bringing Phillips back in need to be pilloried in the passing lane of J R Allen Parkway during rush hour. Phillips went so far as to circumvent the board and hired himself a vice-superintendent at half his salary so he could tale more time out of town hunting. Track down that guy and bring him in and save half of Phillips' salary if there is no one remotely qualified within the MCSD system. Of course, that's another issue of why don't we have an abundance of qualified persons in the current administration?

L-E story: "ATLANTA — A state law aimed at making the budget process more transparent has so far met with mixed success, according to a report by Morris News Service. * Morris News Service reported Sunday that, under the law, any local government with a budget totaling more than $1 million must submit copies of their taxes and expenses to the University of Georgia’s Carl Vin-son Institute of Government. Most governments have until the end of June to comply with the law. * So far 117 of 535 cities have submitted the records, while 76 of 159 counties and 169 of 180 school districts are in compliance, according to Morris News Service. Some of those not complying could be exempt because their budgets are too small. * “We don’t mind providing the information, but we think it’s come to the point where the state government doesn’t have anything better to do other than asking local governments to submit information,” said Carter Crawford, city manager in Sylvania. “It’s just aggravating. It takes time away from duties that we can do elsewhere .” -- What's wrong with a central reporting/evaluation site? This info should not only be easy to compile by every local form of government, but to com[plain about it is a 'red flag' that needs to be delved into.

Every tribute to Bill Turner has been earned. He is even a life-long member of the BisKit BoyS....a group started around the basis of "Do the right thing because it is the right thing to do...at the time." -- He expressed a priceless aspect at thr presentation of 'The BisKit BoyS Inspirational Attitde Award' back in the early 90s. He said it was the first award he'd received that someone didn't expect a big check. When you think about that, it should sadden us, and we can pray that he's received many more since then. This is not making light of the good he has done with his life and money; it's just to remind us of his true servant leadership.
