Kauai: Things Ain’t That Different in the Middle of the Pacific

I was fortunate enough to have a vacation to the island of Kauai, Hawaii for 11 days. I highly recommend it to anyone that may be looking for a little R&R in one of the most beautiful places in the world. Being a political junkie and a geek, I actually spent some time (mostly while changing of something) watching the goings on of their Kauai County Council. There appears to still be a battle for transparency and access for many documents from Kauai's government.

I don't know if that decision was made by the Director of CRI, board members or the anonymous money men behind the whole thing. But Dave Burris got all bent out of shape for Kavips' dissection of one of their employees resumes. Dave's main complaint seemed to be the poisoning of the well for said director in his next job interview. If a state employee resume comes across a potential employers desk, CRI's database of payroll data is likely to assist the employer in negotiating salary.

Castle to Retire

Mike Castle is passing the torch. He is talking up Copeland, Lavelle and Kovach. He has probably already told the National and state GOP that they have plenty of candidates who could make the run, and now he is telling the public. If he was planning on running himself, he would not offer alternatives to his candidacy. He is already on that beach in Florida in his mind.
