Thank you for the OPD success story, Ms. Pfeil. Though the public bias has swung to the cop-hating side of the meter lately, it is refreshing to hear stories of positive outcomes from the difficult, dangerous and distasteful work to which the Oakland Police are routinely subjected.

Contra Costa County passed the Better Government Ordinance (BGO) in 1995 in response to a series of "secret settlements" that caused a big stir in the newspapers. The BGO prohibits the sort of secret settlement described here.

Mayor Quan's pay cut is a grand gesture, but still about 22 grand more than Jerry Brown was making. The gesture does point out another failing on the part of the City Council.

"...the Berkeley City Council is scheduled to vote next week on a proposal to invite at least two former Guantanamo Bay detainees to live in the city...".

Couldn't be any worse than Gitmo, could it? Food is bound to be better.

"Mayor Quan's pay cut is a grand gesture, but still about 22 grand more than Jerry Brown was making."

True enough, but there's a distinction worth noting. Jerry Brown is independently wealthy, so making less pay wasn't much of a hardship for him.

Oops - I made the change in the story. Looks like the mysterious poster got it wrong too, however.

So the plot thickens ... Now the poster says the '05 date was Photoshopped and is a fake, but that his theory is still true.

I make no value judgement here, Bob. Just pointing out some historical trivia.

Burning Man 1995 was Sep 1 - 4 so he probably didn't see any naked hippies in the desert in February!!

There are a number of people in Albany who support the project, and others who are against. I'm not sure if this piece captures both elements.

Mike Gressett is one of the few prosecutors in that office who I would trust. He has tremendous integrity and is honorable in all his dealings.

Two years ago my car broke down and I made the decision to donate it, mostly because I was too broke to get it fixed or buy a new one. Life without a car for the first 2-3 months were HELL.
