PSC: Knee-jerk effort won’t solve problems
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 1/26/9 How quickly they forget . . .

CL EDITORIAL – HB 1090 to move Public Utility Staff under PSC political control is a bad idea
PSC: Knee-jerk effort won’t solve problems In reaction to that scandal, the Legislature in 1990 mandated a reorganization of the Public Utilities Staff. The “old” Public Utilities Staff was abolished and the “new” Public Utilities Staff was established as a completely separate and independent entity from the elected PSC. Under the 1990 law, the executive…

JOHN PITTS:Rebooting the ’04 draft with new data
JOHN PITTS:Rebooting the ’04 draft with new data Knowing what we know now, who would be the first pick in the 2004 NFL Draft? It’s reasonable to assume Eli Manning would still wind up in a New York Giants uniform, though I wonder if it would have come through that same draft day deal with…

Bordow: Cards shaped themselves in mold of Steelers
Bordow: Cards shaped themselves in mold of Steelers The Cardinals are emblematic of the modern-day NFL. Spread the field with four or five receivers, throw it 40 to 50 times, and hope the defense and running game show up that particular Sunday. But it would be a mistake to assume the teams have nothing in…
