"Sunlight is the best disinfectant.” — U.S. Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis
By Deena Winter
Deena Winter covered city government in Lincoln, Neb., for six years for the Lincoln Journal Star before leaving and launching this blog. She covered everything from zoning boards to school boards to presidential contenders during her 20-year career as a journalist -- for everyone from the Northwood Gleaner to the Denver Post.
Now, she writes for fun.
You go, girl. You will have a lot of support.
Deena, Need your opinion on this matter. Farm prices and the farm economy have been as good as ever the past 2 years. And NE touts itself as an ag state. So how come are we in such a dire condition with respect to the state budget??? Why aren’t we generating the tax dollars that should be reflected from such a strong farm economy? Are there too many exemptions? Help me understand????
Hi Deena,
I saw an advertisement for your blog in a brochure touting local Lincoln businesses. I enjoy your style of writing and find the topics very interesting. I plan to be a regular visitor. Thank you for sharing your talent and interests with so many people!

City of Lincoln has entered into a marketing agreement with Active Network. The firm will help the City develop marketing agreements with private sector businesses that we hope will generate funding for the City budget. How much does this city pays for this agreement?
Sorry just found out: $50,000 up front to set it up plus 14% commission
If I want to really know what goes on in this town I go to your website. Keep up the good work!
When are you going to do something on Harvey Perlman who is clearly over his head. UNL loses research accreditation and he says its “no big deal” why isn’t it, and why is Kansas doing everything it can to remain in the group? Also, why the hell does he get $25 million from us for the research park when he claims folks are flocking to the place? It stinks! Enjoy your site as I always enjoyed your reporting in the LJS……Al
Deena, I just saw your piece on sustainability and read with interest your comment about your mom being a conservative and still living a “greener” lifestyle than many self-professed liberals. Certainly there is some middle ground. The difference is, your mom taught you to do these things because they are the right thing to do. I bet she isn’t out promoting laws that would force everyone else to live according her beliefs, though, is she?
