For those who didn’t stop by over the weekend, please also scroll down and consider bidding for the vintage Star-Bulletin shirt. Proceeds will go to the fund [...]

Sunday…Computer “issues”, site stats, Seattle Times woes, biosecurity challenges, biodiesel and our Jetta, and morning fishing

August 3rd, 2008 · 8 Comments

How did it get so late? It’s 9 a.m. and today’s post has not been posted. The computer has been a bit sluggish so I spent a while running DiskWarrior and searching for any problems that could be fixed. Nothing major found, just some housekeeping sorts of things. Hopefully all is well now.

Wednesday…Lingle sidesteps Awana questions, the Cheney series,

June 27th, 2007 · No Comments

Gov. Lingle was a master of understatement in handling questions about chief of staff Bob Awana’s involvement in a complicated mess involving allegations of blackmail and sexual solicitations, as well as a separate corruption probe.
Honolulu Advertiser: “Hawaii Gov. Lingle will speak with aide”
KITV: “Lingle Has No Comment On Awana”
The Advertiser, in its non-bylined story yesterday, [...]

Thursday…Congressional earmarks, real time investigations, and May’s photos

June 21st, 2007 · No Comments

 A reader in Punaluu recommends the Algalita Marine Research Foundation’s web site for its information on the plastics in the ocean environment.
This next site has nothing to do with plastics, but is a great source of info and ideas. Real Time Investigations is a project of the Sunlight Foundation which tracks two journalists digging through [...]
