Mayoral Weblog
I've tried to interest Mayor Hickenlooper in creating a weblog. Here's weblog from mayor of Oakland California, Jerry Brown. Mayor Brown beat Bill Clinton in a Colorado presidential primary a few years back. He made it all the way to the convention.

Choicepoint
Dan Gillmor: "An odious outfit called ChoicePoint compiles electronic dossiers of financial and other personal data about Americans and sells the information to governments and businesses. Thanks to a California law requiring notification to people whose financial privacy may have been compromised, the company has fessed up to a grotesque privacy mess: selling the information to phony companies pretending to be legitimate businesses, as MSNBC first reported. This is undoubtedly the tip of an ugly iceberg."

Social Security
Josh Marshall: "Must Read: The Century Foundation's Greg Anrig on Alan Greenspan's troubling, double-dealing record on Social Security. Sorry, there's no other word for it."

Super Joe
I've gotten over the loss of the season but it would have been great to watch a little Avalanche hockey. Oh well.

Colorado Water
Pueblo Chieftain: "Attorneys are working the next step in a state Supreme Court appeal by a company seeking to change the use of water rights it owns in the Arkansas Valley's largest canal...In a 2002 filing, High Plains sought to change the use of its shares, approximately one-fourth of the Fort Lyon Canal's 93,000 shares, to municipal and industrial uses, as well as agricultural. Maes denied the change on July 2, 2004, because High Plains did not identify end users and violated the state's anti-speculation doctrine. The same ruling was applied to separate cases by an independent shareholders group which owns about 9 percent of the shares and by other shareholders, about 6 percent, who had signed options with High Plains. High Plains, which is picking up the legal costs for the other cases, appealed Maes' ruling on Aug. 17."
Thanks to MakesMeRalph for the link.
