"Power manager"?
Further evidence of what the taxpayers helped accomplish with their $85 million gift to Japans' Nippon Industries.
I wonder what regulatory hoops they would have had to go through, to build a power plant up front.
Just wondering.
Welcome
Yeah, whatever, Nippon is history. That sinking feeling you get when you look at it? We all feel it. That sinking feeling you get when you look at the area between Nippon and downtown? We all feel it. That sinking feeling you get when you look at the new sidewalk? We all feel it. That sinking feeling you get when you look at most of downtown? We all feel it.
So, it looks like a big score in getting this gig, our new school superintendent, Dr. Marc Jackson! Possibly a big score for us too! Yermo looks interesting. Sucks all the snakes and no water. Otherwise, looks neat! I guess the student in Yerma graduated. Jackson must have been all friendly and enthusiastic in his interview....SUCKER! He looks like a nice guy, maybe he is, and some of it will rub off on others around here.
So, next week, the PDN will charge for online access?
I'll bet the few that use it's online advertising services will be pleased with that.
Or, just won't care.
Guess that in the future I'll have to get local (loco) news here.
I don't care who is running the mill, not my circus, not my monkeys.
9:27 - Good observation. Perhaps they are punishing the advertiser(s) for not advertising? Trying to flush him/them out? Or the big office, sending a hint, you are, sick, bleeding profusely, and about ready to DIE. And NO ONE will attend the funeral. Basically, it's like if your neighbor, who is dying in the hospital, who you wouldn't even know existed, if they hadn't have screamed at you those few times, OR WORSE, asks you to stop by Jack in the Box before visiting him. Since it's so close.
If Sno. Co. pulls the plug on the PDN, Port Angeles would then be free to market ourselves as the first city in American with over 20,000 that proudly embraces the paperless media age!!! That would go great with the whole river restoration thing! Yippeee!!
Have you, 9:27, noticed the dates on some of the classifieds? Why run a classified for something, when either, APPARENTLY IT WON'T SELL, or they keep your phone number up etc. with the ad, as a featured ad, for a year and a half. The point is for the item to sell relatively quickly! Of course if they took the ads down, they would have one ad at a time in the paper, IF THAT.
I went into the Landing Mall the other day. Wow! Have any of you been in there, recently? It has emptied out to such a great degree.
The biggest user seems to be the Clallam Art Coop, if I got the name right. It is really nice to see all the works on display, but I'm not sure it shows that the community is doing so well. I'm sure my words will be misinterpreted, and I don't mean to devalue artistic efforts in ANY way.
Anyways, I was truly amazed by how quiet and empty the place was. It made me think of the plans being pushed by the City to build new retail spaces nearby, on the Oak St. property. The City is using residents and businesses tax monies to offer guarranteed rents to the developer, to entice him to build this project. A project that will compete directly with existing downtown businesses and building owners who already have trouble filling downtown retail spaces.
Aren't we already paying too much in taxes for stupid city projects? Don't we obviously already have a glut of vacant downtown buildings and retail spaces?
