Pasadena Campaign Finance Information: Bill Bogaard by Zip Code
Pasadena Campaign Finance Information: Bill Bogaard by Zip Code Several weeks ago, reader AA initiated a collaboration with the blog. The goal was to highlight areas of city government that are transparent in theory, but in practice, thanks to the information cost, are completely opaque. The aim was to find a topic that we thought should easily accessible to the average idiot, namely local campaign finance. We looked around and quickly found a pair of idiots, reader AA and myself.

Backpacking the road to nowhere
The sun shines brightly on our balcony this morning, now this is the French Polynesian weather that we know and love. Alan and I eat breakfast while catching a last glimpse of Moorea. There really is a force of life that runs deep within the veins of Siem Reap province in north west Cambodia. The name of the city means ???Siamese defeated???, referring to the first victory of the Khmer Empire over the army of the Thai kingdom in the 17th century.

Shopping with a Nutcase the nutcase being me
We hit four grocery stores yesterday. Well, I hit one twice so it was five food experiences. When I grocery shop, I don??t muck around with only one store. There??s no point in my eyes and I detest, loathe and hate Meijer. It??s our local large all-in-one place and it??s everything I hate about shopping today. Aisle after aisle packed with stuff that my ancestors would not recognise as food and I??m talking about my grandparents. Not anyone who dwelled in a cave. Gene-Gene and Herne were at the in-l

Help me create Westeros House-esque Mottos, Lands etc. for the NWoD Vampire Clans
Based on Kai Tave’s neat premise in this thread, I had the idea to introduce a less hostile strain of Vampirism into my Iron Heroes/Arcana Evolved homebrew setting, with help from the d20 adaptation of the NWoD Vampire clans. This particular part of the continent will be pseudo-Medieval Europe amazingly the only one of the 8-10 nations that are, my Cthulhu-Byzantines aside quite obviously ripping off GRR Martin’s Westeros. Armoured, mounted knights and vast armies and fantastic castles. T

Bullets don??t look back
My headlights gut the darkness, tearing open the perfect pitch black of an altiplano night as I scream down the two-lane highway. The needle is buried past an obscene number on my speedometer, a daylight-only number, not that I remember the exact math. Above a certain speed you close on an object faster than you can react to it, a phenomenon known as overdriving your headlights. I??m living that phenomenon now. Moths and bats flash through my shallow field of illumination, barely registering on

American Sewer Services
I hope the city of Milwaukee has learned to no longer contract with American Sewer Services of Hartford. From TMJ4: Neighbors living around 79th and Mount Vernon are bailing out filthy water and mopping up the muck again. They have now spent the better part of three days cleaning up after two separate flooding incidents that they blame on a Hartford contractor. The latest basement backups, from a sewage line, were discovered Sunday morning. City officials say the sewage line may have been pl

Can you dig it? see VIDEO
PANAMA CITY BEACH Above the waterline, the machine hummed calmly. On the mucky bottom, it worked furiously. Anchored just off the shore, Bay County’s new hydraulic dredge was about a week-deep into Grand Lagoon on Thursday. It is digging a swath 50 feet wide, 5 feet deep and 1,300 feet long. "It’s like a water-vacuum cleaner," said Larry Hawks, Bay County Environmental Coordinator. As traffic roared onto nearby Grand Lagoon Bridge, Hawks pointed to an 8-inch pipe trailing away from the dredge. T

It was a quiet Monday you understand. But that was the transition days.

In local council by-elections in London since the beginning of the year, the Liberal Democrats have come out top ?? a fact conveniently ignored by most of the political journalists who, one would have thought, are paid to notice such things. In seats we already held such as Fortune Green, Camden, we increased our majority. We regained Leyton, Waltham Forest, from Labour on a substantial swing, and we even came close to seizing Cheam, Sutton, off the Tories the other day. Right across the capi

Dear City Worker,
Hi there. It’s cold and rainy today, huh? I’ve been trying to convince myself that it’s not crappy weather - just the last little hint of winter before a beautiful Texas springtime. But it’s pretty crappy. Anyway, I saw you standing out in the cold rain this morning, jabbing into a giant puddle with a stick. I guess you were trying to figure out why the street wasn’t draining properly. That’s a pretty important job, otherwise we’d all hydroplane or get trapped in three feet of water as we cro

As Tony Jackson of the Daily News wrote, Young "made two lunging plays to his left in the first inning, then made a spectacular play behind the bag in the third, getting the runner at first each time." Folks are speculating that Young’s reemergen

Monday Interview: Christopher Goffard
I’m always on the lookout for new writers to add to the stack, so when I read Sarah Weinman’s rave review of Christopher Goffard’s novel, Snitch Jacket, I added it to my "to-be read" list. When I learned he was a fellow journalist, albeit one who had finished his novel and seen it published, I moved him to the top of that list. I wasn’t disappointed. Snitch Jacket is one of the most entertaining books I’ve read in a long while. By means of an endorsement, let me say that I plowed through it in

Welcome to Wednesday, March 5, 2008. It’s very tempting to begin with a lengthy photo tribute to Eva Mendes on her 34th birthday. But instead we’ll stay focused and, because of a very deep belief in sportstrology, predict big things for today between sports management and labor. March 5, 1966, was the day Marvin Miller shifted his business office from the United Steelworkers to the Major League Players Association.

A very whiny entry
Yesterday I mentioned to my husband that I needed to go into town to purchase a gift for my sister in law??s baby shower that evening. Since trips into town take time and precious gas money, we tend to cram everything we possibly can into one trip. Eric presented me with two coupons one for an oil change and one for windshield repair, and begged me to get some needed car maintenance done while I was there. In our house, servicing the car in this manner is generally considered a man job*. Much l
