Ok, enough slacking, back to work! Here’s the highlights of the last week or so . . . beyond that the Packers won and the Badgers lost.
WHAT TYPE OF NEIGHBORHOOD DO YOU LIVE IN?
The type where police enforce the noise ordinance . . . or not? Which ones do you think qualify? Or don’t?
NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS
I like Norm’s.
•”support and treasure the wide array of community organizations we have built in Madison over the years — they truly represent a vision of the world we would like to see” — Norman Stockwell, operations coordinator, WORT-FM.
Can you believe they’d print something like that in the Wisconsin State Journal? Must have been enjoying the holiday cheer a little too much!
COMMERCIAL KITCHENS
Yes, we need more of them. It’ll help the economy and create jobs.
EDGEWATER
Some challenges. Some cleared, maybe.
SNOW REMOVAL BLUES
Downtown sidewalk clearing FAIL, but nothing will change says Briski.
SOGLIN AND HOMELESSNESS
A lesson in saying very little. Sounds like a candidate.
GROTHMAN 4K FACT CHECK
Ed Hughes sets him straight. Here’s the WSJ article on Grothman. I like the opening line in the blog post.
NEW FACES FOR CITY COUNCIL
More info can be found throughout the spring here. Cap Times wants more candidates. As does the State Journal.
CITY BUYING DOWNTOWN PARKING LOT
You read about it here first.
SOLOMON ACCUSED OF SEXUAL ASSAULT
But still running . . . as far as we know. Psst, please file your paperwork and put that to rest, you have less than 48 hours.
EILEEN BRUSKEWITZ RUNNING FOR COUNTY EXEC
This ought to be entertaining. Jonathan Barry not running.
USELESS BRIDGE
Pedestrian killed.
HILLDALE OWNERS ACCUSED OF FRAUD
In the purchase of Hilldale. Freed and Associates are the new owners.
CHANNEL 3 AND AT&T SETTLE
You’ll still be able to find channel 3 on U-Verse.
CAP TIMES WANTS BLASKA TO RUN FOR SCHOOL BOARD
It’ll help them get more readers, no doubt.
HARAMBEE CENTER CLOSES
This is sad. These are much needed services. Not to mention 3 more layoffs in the non-profit community. That’s 6 so far in 2011 . . . that were in the paper (WYOU) . . . I wonder how many more that didn’t make the paper.
$20M REFUND PLEASEQuestions at the UW Foundation . . . charging too much at the Medical School says Blue Cross, Blue Shield.
STATE JOURNAL NOTICES MY ETHICS ACTIONS
They used an irritating picture, seriously, is that all they had? I hear it was front page news and people appreciated my efforts, so that’s all that really matters.
CAP TIMES LIKES WINEKE’S MESSAGE
For now.
I guess Glenn Grothman (R-Endocrine Disruption) is anti 4-K because he wants it to be replaced with 3-K…….
