There's only 4 meetings, 1 city (today), 3 county (all tomorrow).

Another week over . . . and so much left to do . . . . lots going on last night, look for blogs over the weekend as I catch up . . . meanwhile, here's what the news covered, and a little more . . .

3 meetings, 2 today.

Here's an update from Richard Russell . . .

So . . . will we rally to defend more of our rights the state is taking away? I sure hope so.

Hippie Christmas! Garbage picked up daily downtown, but please, please, please, please, please don;t dump your stuff on our streets.

I'm not making any promises, but here's a round up of Monday news and maybe a bit from the weekend. It's a little tough, cuz there isn't much news left in this town, but here's my shot at it.

They still managed to schedule 21 meetings, even tho they can't scheduled meetings during budget, which is Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday night.

That means blacks are 9..5 times more likely to be arrested than whites. Dane County average is 8:1. Ferguson 2.8. WTF? (sorry chief, if deserves an f-bomb!)

Particularly, Abrahamson's awesome dissent. Rudy Moore, a friend of mine from Foley & Lardner helps break it down. Rudy was a judicial intern for Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson. Besides being an attorney, he's also an electrical engineer, recipient of a Congressional medal for service in Antarctica after spending 13 months there, and he's a commercially licensed pilot.

If its not on this list or a public hearing item, it will likely be passed as noted on the council agenda.

Not even 24 hours notice this time . . . .
