This past Tuesday, April 20, was Equal Pay Day. This means that women must work 16 months to make the same as men make in 12 months. So on April 20, we women finally made up the 22 cents of the dollar that we were short in 2009.
The New Albany Business and Professional Women Board of Directors (Kim Martin-Dawkins, Sarah Ring, Rosalie Dowell, Connie Enlow, Terri Tock, Suellen Wilkinson, Ann Windell and Suzy Higdon) had an excellent article in the Tribune this Tuesday and everyone should check it out.

Sad but true.
Latest FOS slop:
Mr. President, we...want to thank you for appointing a pervert as our safe schools czar.
WOW! STOP THE PRESSES!
First the racist comments, then the anti-Muslim comments, and now this. By "a pervert" do you mean the fact that he's openly gay?
I thought Tea Party people were angry about just taxes? Do you also have to bash everyone but straight white Christian conservatives?
Anon 9:50 There certainly must be more to the story. I'm sure they know that gay people are not perverts just because they are gay.
12:12 if your going be anonymous and write stuff about erica and others why do you have a problem if she or anyone else does the same? sounds like your not willing to live by the standards you are expecting of others.
Don't think anybody has to write a lot about Messer. England and the Tribune took care of that thing. England has fed him to the wolfs.
I chose not to write about Mr. Messer's situation since I have not discussed the matter with him and do not know all of the details.
But if anyone wishes to comment, Randy Smith has written an article on his blog, "The New Albanist" and Roger Baylor also has an article devoted to this topic. I suggest that everyone comment on these two blogs.
I deleted my comment regarding Jack in regards to Shirleys wishes. She must have posted that request when I was typing.
Which one is the New Albanist, and which one is the New Albanianer? I keep getting them confused. I know one is pretty good at mooching off the city, but he makes some good homebrew.
The bookseller comes off as a little desperate, but hey, who can blame him if he can raid the public coffers by wailing on the guys with the purse strings.
Can anyone help? I would like to contact both these dudes to see if I can get some pointers. I am broke too.
He doesn’t feel Messer’s remarks were just a slip of tongue.
Dustin White
“It was intentionally said, we believe that’s his core belief,” White said. “It’s one person. It’s not about being sensitive, it’s about what you believe.”
Where is the evidence to support such a statement that it is his core belief and what he believes?
SHOW US THE EVIDENCE or find a real cause to fight.
WOW! STOP THE PRESSES!
Get a life, what you progressives need to be worrying about is if England will get to keep his job.
Supposedly the pervert told a kid to get condoms
New Albanist Destinations Bookstore Randy Smith. New Albanian Roger Baylor the brewerer Are you guys worried about your Tweets on Twitter? it's like everybody knows
if you haven't noticed this is not ericas blog. you need to go to her blog and quit looking here for answers from her.
she can post whatever she likes on her blog. if you don't like it don't read her blog.
show us the evidence that she has been posting here anonymously. waiting....

"public moochers". we're really in freaking dreamland now.
list their "mooching." i got to see this.
(We've heard the sidewalk story. tell me something new for a change)
pervert = corrupt
try consulting a dictionary yourself next time.
still waiting for you to show us the evidence that erica has been posting here anonymously.

In good time.
By pervert equals corrupt, you mean the school safety czar is corrupt? Have any proof, erica? Oh, thanks for posting anonymously.
Contribution is zero? That's GREAT!
Someone's been buying Roger's pizza and beer for 20 years. Someone's been buying Randy's books for 5 years. A lot of people read their blogs each day. What's your contribution, anonymous? Prove it's more than zero! Ha!
That's not a contribution to the city it's a contribution to their pocket books The contribution i see to the city is hot air and false information about things they don't know the facts.
Go tell it to Dougie6:19. Please.
“ Alot of people read their blogs each day.”
More people read this blog and could care less about that tired ole NAC as evident by the lack of participation on that blog. Even you don’t post on his blog. Notice the 0 (zero’s) you asked for.

still not told me what you contribute to the city.
supporting slumlords does not count.
100 comments on shirley's blog doesn't mean much if they came from three people.
More FOS slop:
And we'd like to thank you [Mr. President] for your never-ending support of the New Black Panthers
Obama supports the New Black Panthers? Really? I don't remember seeing funding for Black Panthers in the budget.
FOS posts another outright lie. If you think I'm wrong, show me some evidence for a change.
first she's writing about perverts, then she's writing nonstop about roger and randy. talk about jonesing. gross!
Thank you for continue to put denharts name out there. The more you post about her and the more recognition and support you provide to her. Anyone who reads your post realizes that she must have something going for her for you to be so obsessed and jealous of her.
or she could be nuts.
probably more like you are nuts about her!
probably more like you are nuts about her!
by that logic she's nuts about obama and england. never stops writing about those two.

Too funny. Could she be holding a trump card against England?
yeah, maybe she works for the CIA...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Too funny. Could she be holding a trump card against England?
then why doesn't she go public? she must be using it for her own financial gain.
by the way how was italy?

yeah, we know who tweets on twitter about there being only 3 or 4 people on here. What about your twits on tweeter? therese a pac downtown called cfa. I know the prez of it and dont catre who else belongs. They are doing good work. Keep it up cfa. a tailspin is what is going on and theyre graspng at life lines. some think we all stupid. lets keep it that way.
Most do not think members of cfa are stupid. That would be an insult to stupid people everywhere.
I used to think that the fine people at cfa were horrible at mathmatics, then I thought about it and decided I was wrong. Arithmetic is definately their strong point: they add trouble, subtract happiness, divide attention, and multiply ignorance.
Thats not fair to say about CFA, They're the best at all they do - and all they do is make people hate them.
cfa members are unseen because they're ninjas.
I for one hereby refuse to engage in a battle of wits with anyone from CFA, as I will not take advantage of the handicapped.
I applaud our local watchdog group, no mattewr what anyone on here says.
typo: matter
I applaud our local watchdog group, no mattewr what anyone on here says.
Me too. Roger does an excellent job keeping an eye on Coffey's and Price's antics.
"Roger does an excellent job keeping an eye on Coffey's and Price's antics."
Thats the problem he doesn't keep an eye on all of them. The ones that are the greatest threat and harm he just looks away. He is only capable of watching and making fun of the weakest and vulnureable ones. It feeds his ego to to prey on the weak and vulnerable. He's not capable of tackling on those that are powerful and strong.
If ignorance is bliss, the members of CFA must be the happiest people on earth
BING
I'd like to see things from cfa's point of view but I can't seem to get my head that far up my a$$.
BING
Ernest it is more like you can't get your head out far enough from deep in your @ss to be able to see anything but your bowel.
we hear smith is calling for stan robinsons number on twitter hope he finds him
we hear smith is calling for stan robinsons number on twitter hope he finds him
it's amazing what passes for scandal these days.
who cares what randy tweets.
My feelings are crushed 1:31
Let me ask you a question; as a dedicated cfa-ist why do you always compare yourselves to the plight of the poor little people? It's obvious you have no trouble making ends meet. Your foot is always in your mouth! I have to give you credit though, you have made me contemplate on eastern religions; you make me believe in reincarnation. Nobody can be as stupid as you in one lifetime! I know it must be tough be such an angry group of people, you have an inferiority complex -and it's fully justified. I have to give you cfa-er’s credit though, you are all people who always sticks by their convictions, you will remain idiots no matter how much you get ridiculed for it!
If I said anything to you that I should be sorry for, I'm glad.
Words will never hurt us............. shame you can't take the energy you took to write the essay and turn it into something positive. i got to admit the more news cfa gets the better.
Hmm, I see that Passiveaggressiveland is thriving in my brief absence.
The ones that are the greatest threat and harm he just looks away.
Obviously, we disagree on that assertion. We'll never square those circles here, where I'm me, openly, and you're anonymous, cloaked. Too bad. If all of us could sit in one place and have a chat, much good might some of it.
Reminds me of that sappy his song from 1989:
If you see me walking by
And there's a teardrop in my eye
Look away, baby, look away
That's "hit" song. By Chicago, no less.
Still catching up to the mindlessness.
New Albanist Destinations Bookstore Randy Smith. New Albanian Roger Baylor the brewerer Are you guys worried about your Tweets on Twitter? it's like everybody knows
No, I'm not worried. I comment on Twitter precisely because I want you to know. How you mangle the information is your own business and your own ineptitude.
It's always a good idea to save the most oblivious for last
More people read this blog and could care less about that tired ole NAC as evident by the lack of participation on that blog. Even you don’t post on his blog. Notice the 0 (zero’s) you asked for.
The reason why NAC has a publicly viewable site counter is to put such observations to rest.
Click on the counter, and explore the stats on dedicated daily hits, page views and more.
Enforcing an adult standard of disclosure with respect to prospective comments guarantees that we have less participation.
And, if a trustworthy site counter were attached here or at FOS, we'd see how many (or how few) people visit the blog in question.
"I think this weekend will be a good weekend to go out collecting yard signs; they will make a good bonfire."
Yes do something productive for once! get all those signs in the public right aways and clean up this city instead of just posting your stupid trash talk here all day long. Pathetic life you live. Bet my tax dollars are providing you your monthly check, food stamps, and housing subsidies.
Go at it ERNEST. Break the law. Shore am glad you warned us, ha, ha.
Baylor u could do so much better exposing what is going on down town. Are you in it that fur down you cant see?
Glad you want us to follow twitter and all of you. Thats what its there for. some peoples tweets are protected and not when they tweet with you.
apparently the little people just now discovered twitter, years after everyone else did.
Roger,
what do you think about all this daily bashing of denhart, FOS, etc by the one guy who post non-stop daily on here as anonymous/ernest?
I'd be interested in knowing if you know who this is and if you are backing it and supporting it. he claims to be close with you and randy and attends meetings with the two of you.
what do you think about all this daily bashing of denhart, FOS, etc by the one guy who post non-stop daily on here as anonymous/ernest?
how do you know earnest and anonymous are the same guy? how do you know all anonymous posts are by one guy?
always jumping to conclusions. always assuming they know things they cannot know.
i think it's one guy bashing and a dozen guys asking for evidence.
We have a right to debate, be anonymous, and disagree with any administration.
Ernest of 1:17, 2:40 and 3:30. C'mon dude, lighten up with the dictionary vocabulary and attacks. Evertime I want to support your cause, you wordsmith me to death. You're sounding more and more like that greasy looking dude at NAC.
I tried sincerely asking them to share what they knew. I wanted to know who to vote for, who note to vote for here. I wanted to know if OUR money was really being stolen or misused. I gave them my email and not one of these supposedly hundreds of people contacted me once. The story is told, they're a bunch of loud mouth trouble makers. So I figure, when in Rome, do as the Romans. And I never once said I go to meetings with anyone else. I went to the meetings for me and my family and had to sit for hours on end listening to Jabba and company spray venom.
yeah right hours onh end attending a meeting who are you kidding this guy may be the worst of the worst in new albany i thought we had seen them all i glad he's like england threatening people its just going to get you in trouble ignorance is bliss
7:19, OK we get it, you hate roger.
but what do you have against punctuation?
Hey Ernest do we call you Borga for short?
Were still waiting for the arrest of the so called death threat calls. Anyone know what's going on or is this another arrogant threat of Mayor England's?
Forgot one.
I'd be interested in knowing if you know who this is and if you are backing it and supporting it. he claims to be close with you and randy and attends meetings with the two of you.
I don't know who it is, I don't support counter productive anonymity, and all of it is the New Albany Syndrome to me.
Latest FOS slop....er...lie:
Freedom Of Speech is proud to announce that out of the over 12,000 runners of the Kentucky Derby Festival Marathon and mini Marathon 2010 we have 6 staff members registered as participants to run the 26.2 mile course and the 13.1 mini Marathon.
GREAT NEWS! SIX STAFF MEMBERS OF CFA.
Who are these marathon running ninjas we can't see?
I see people jogging in New Albany all the time but none of them have "NO" shirts. Not one "NO" shirt wearer at a council meeting looked like they could finish a marathon.
The only thing you can run is your mouth or from one bar stool to another.
9:12 anonymous/ernest - your so called friend roger has said it himself, he does not know who you are and does not support your behavior! You have the backing and support of no one!
That's a good one, anonymous. I'm also wiping beer off my keyboard. Between Ernest and Anonymous 9:12 both have become experts on wgose who and does what. LOL
Hey, NAC did not give you permission to record his conversation.
(giggle)
Freedom of Speech staff were told there was a carton of Marlboro at the finish line of the KDF Marathon.
Yeah Yeah Yeah
What is the council going to do about the 5.3 million in the hole for the general fund?
Does any care? All should be worried about this or your friends won't get hired by the city like the fulltime attorney.
Why hasn't the controller separated the sewer fund from sanitation and drainage according to council orders in 1998? Is she going to plead ignorance? The way the conversation is going none of you care about this city really.
What is the council going to do about the 5.3 million in the hole for the general fund?
Why do you say $5.3 million hole?
State auditor said nothing was wrong.
Tell us why the auditor was wrong.
Where are you getting the $5.3 million figure?
State Auditor did not say nothing was wrong. The year end published shows 5.3 million in the red for the general fund. McGlaughlin brought the document from DGLF in to the Council meeting. Ask him. Don't tell us nothing is wrong. Shows how much you really know. Do you have Pat's number? It was brought uyp at Council and no one recognized or realized the doucment he was showing. Ask Pat.
Perhaps King Larry can remind Pat to issue a press release about the $5.3 million reasons to drink more Progressive Pints.
Yo, Kingly ...
State Auditor did not say nothing was wrong. The year end published shows 5.3 million in the red for the general fund. McGlaughlin brought the document from DGLF in to the Council meeting.
i want to see this mystery document and make sure it is more real than CFA's six marathon running staff.
do you have a copy? is it on the next?
is it on the net.
Yes ity's on the net. Ask Pat to fax you a copy.You all have faxes right.
i take that to mean you don't have a copy.
why not post a copy to FOS?
i want to see a copy of this document. i wouldn't be surprised if it says something other than what anonymous claims it to say.
if FOS has so many staff members, then why can't one of them post their "smoking gun" evidence to their website?
something doesn't sound right here.
Ask Pat McLaughlin. Don't you have his number? Why do you keep referring to FOS? Why not let Shirley's blog be Shirleys?
i don't know pat. why should i call him?
you said you had this document. cough it up.
can you email it to me?
a47150@hotmail.com
You should call Pat because you would believe him unlike everyone else you have no faith in.
i have faith in a document when i can see it. my mailbox is empty.
why are you going around saying there's a $5.3 million hole in the budget when you apparently don't have a spread of evidence to support that?
is this character assassination or are you just that irresponsible?
don't have a shred of evidence
post it to your blog.
email it to a47150@hotmail.com
tell me the internet address where i can see it online. (you did say it's online, remember?)
anything. not just more of the same old "in good time" BS.
my mail box is still empty. i want to see the smoking gun.
Ha! This is amusing. CFA finally gets a prospective follower and it cannot produce the evidence.
Buddy, good luck with the mailbox.
@10:30 not so fast. it is late. i'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt and wait until monday. it is late on a saturday. i would like to read this letter.
Here's my letter...
From: a47150@hotmail.com
Sent: Sat 4/24/10 10:34 PM
To: voiceofna@aol.com
Subject: $5.3 Budget Gap
Hello,
I would like to read the letter from the state showing a $5.3 million budget gap for City of New Albany's general fund. Can you be so kind as to forward a copy of this letter?
Thank You Very Much,
Alan
"I would like to read the letter from the state showing a $5.3 million budget gap for City of New Albany's general fund. Can you be so kind as to forward a copy of this letter?

Alan"
Alan (yea right) why don't you get off your lazy but and get this information yourself. You can obtain this yourself by contacting (1) the tribune...it was published in the paper. (2) from the city itself it is their report and they are the ones who had it published in the paper or (3) from the state which the city was required to send it to.
since you dont believe anything from FOS it is best you get this information from a party other than them so that you can actually believe it. if not then move on with your child play.
Alan,
The FOS staff is still coming down from the marathon so it may take a few days to recuparate.
10:14 at least they are doing something healthy and productive How did that clean-up of yard signs in the right away go ernest?
I haven't seen anybody wearing a NO t-shirt make it all the way through a meeting without a smoke break...Now that's a healthy bunch!
Even if they handed it to you or anyone else on here, you'd still call them a liar. I applaud what FOS is doing for our city. Don't like it or believe it, why read it then.
Mayor England should put up or shut up over an arrest over death threats.
10 days and still no arrest.
tick

Mayor England should put up or shut up over an arrest over death threats.

Never happy, are you?
First you say England crossed a line saying there'd be an arrest, now you're pissed there's no arrest.
Why don't you let the police do their job?
I applaud what FOS is doing for our city.
You applaud posting racist posts?
You applaud post of singing Hitlers?
You applaud post calling a guy a "pervert" merely because he's gay?
This doesn't help the city!
