I would kill for a video of Glenn Beck inseminating a chicken. Maybe he can make a new master race to combat the libs or something. That would be awesome.

I can't rightfully make a comment about this. I never saw the first "Chicken Inseminator" when it in the theaters.

Well to be fair, the licensing and registration fees that are part and parcel with that particular trade are steep.

//Probably for this year though.
 
2009-12-22 02:51:36 PM
Yep, this is available every year. I'm on the list, and despite the salary increases I've experienced, the awesome 1% COLA, combined with health care cost increases and the wonderfulness of being a single taxpayer with no dependents means that I'm still bringing home about $20,000, after taxes. Christ, I don't even make enough to save anything for retirement.

There's a farking police lieutenant on there that took down $150k. Holy shiat. Not bad for a pencil pusher cop.

/good for him
//is glad I'm not paying taxes in Louis-ville.
 
2009-12-22 03:01:52 PM
From the article: "It's not clear what the city and county expect citizens to do with such granular data"

No shiat, the government doesn't need to know how the citizens are going to use the data. First put out the data, and then let the people figure it out. Nothing cleans up corruption like sunshine.

I think the access to the invoices is even more important then the access salary info. I bet it will drive competitive bidding, and eliminate patronage. If I lost out on a government contract and then saw my competitor get paid more then I bid you can be sure that I would raise hell

Short skit. Michael Keaton plays an out-of-work version of himself. That line was Clint Howard's, as he makes a comment to Keaton. Something about fish guts/heads. Pretty sure Ron Howard directed it.

What the hell was it from? Was it a SNL skit?

He's making less in prison than he would standing outside a Home Depot for the day.

That assumes the $263 figure is for the year.

t's not clear what the city and county expect citizens to do with such granular data. Niblock said the city and county didn't yet have plans to connect a performance-measuring function to the data.

I have a perfect example of what to do with it.

There is an intersection and a mile stretch of road that was closed for over a year for so they could repave the intersection and upgrade from a regular stop light to one with arrows for the existing turning lanes. They started by tearing up the entire intersection then left it for the next 9 months (3 of those were the summer months) before they got back to it. It then took them another year to go back and REPAVE each lane individually. I think they messed something up so had to redo it. The redo they handled properly (aside from the time it took them to complete) by closing a portion of the street at a time.

I would sure love to find out which company was contracted to do this project so I could start a campaign against them and ensure they aren't used again by the city.

Added 20 minutes a day to my drive to and from work durring the closure. =(

I feel ya. Different state. No raises whatsoever since 2005,with none project at least to 2013. Add in furlough days and a 55% incrase in Healthcare...

Yeah. I know. There are 20 unemployed farkers that would love my job.

As crude as the morphing-metal effects look to us today, "Chicken Inseminator II: Judgment Day" was still a better James Cameron movie than "Avatar".

Yeah we had this a couple years ago. State Gov't wage/salary info is public info, as it should be, but one of the papers decided to draw a lot of attention to it and provided a direct link to teh database from their home page. Little weird to have it out there, but it should be public info. I'm not sure exactly what the paper was trying to demonstrate, or if I have a point with this little anecdote.

h2oincfs: ...the awesome 1% COLA, combined with health care cost increases....
Dude, that is awesome! We're staring at a 3% cut followed by a 2 year freeze. This after many already received a 5% cut and we had a 15% reduction in total headcount. 1% - wow, your union must kick ass.

Meh, Beck's just a professional troll. Keep in mind the man was once VERY successful on CNN, which is generally considered the left-leaning counterbalance to Fox's right-leaning tendencies.

Problems probably had little to do with the contractor, they would lose money pulling equipment out and operating a project in this manor (unless it was some drunk operating out of his garage)....this sounds like government bureaucracy got involved and someone that knows nothing about engineering or construction decided he knew how to do the engineering and construction management.

It doesn't list their farking home addresses, like the California database does.
