New Website and Theme / Old Links Won't Work

I had been meaning to redesign my site for some time. As you can see, I got started. Right now, content is missing and old links won't work (sorry).

Everything should be complete in a few days.

Iconoclast searching for a wedge

Some questions from local blog, the Iconoclast, and my answers...

I post these here for all to see because the Iconoclast has a history of misappropriating facts. In an effort to discredit me during the campaign, they accused me of making ad hominem attacks against fellow aldermen when I called them out for shirking their responsibilities by threatening a budget boycott. Not willing to let them twist my words by omission or rearrangement so easily for a second time, I post the answers here.

90-day economic development plan for Fayetteville

Is it realistic to set a 90-day goal for an economic development plan? It might be...

It might be if you've already had a consultant here and do focus groups and interviews... (check! Eva Klein)

Post-election First Thoughts

My first reaction after the [local] election runoff was "Oh well, that sucks. Things are really going to change." During the runoff, I didn't think they would change for the better if Lioneld Jordan were elected.

Now, I'm taking a slightly different approach, even though my agenda hasn't changed. I think good things are going to happen, and we're going to see change and evolution, even though I'm not sure how large of a role Lioneld will play as an executive.

A Mayoral Transition Team

Everyone knows I campaigned for Dan Coody in the runoff, but that doesn't mean I'm going to hem and haw about Lioneld Jordan's election. He's our Mayor now, by our accepted process of consensus. I'm looking forward to working with Lioneld on a variety of initiatives. But this announcement of a "transition team" has me puzzled.

Fayetteville CAT gets funding for new website

I just got an email from Sky Blalock, director of Fayetteville's Community Access Television Channel. I used the channel weekly during my campaign for City Council. I'm excited to see them get funding to develop their website as a resource for the community, and if you've seen their webpage, you know they need it. I can't wait to see how much more effective this will make them.

Green-collar jobs and Obama

First, let me say how excited I am that Obama is giving his weekly addresses via Youtube. How cool is that?!

Next, let me say how excited I am that Obama has identified his economic recovery priorities, and number one is energy efficiency! He is committing to $15billion for energy efficiency, which is $13billion more than already appropriated. Besides from just putting people back to work, this is going to put people back on track.
