Brookman,

be careful what you celebrate and for what, The office of Human Relations has provided accessibility to Afro Americans, Latinos and White Women businesses many opportunities for the last 30 years,

I'm sure the HR staff if proud of their record. Mr. Brookmam are you proud of yours ???? -

Nene, Be careful where you spit.

Please let me know where in that posting I said anything negative about the Office of Human Realtions itself. I am very critical of Lillian Ruiz and welcome her termination from city employment. The people in the office may have done some very good work, but monitoring contract compliance , especially on the Park Street project, has not been a strong point.

If in fact they have done the good work you claim, I have every confidence they will continue to do that under the guidance and direction of the Corporation Counsel's office.

Another $110,000 a year plus "manager" is gone, not soon enough for me.

An other episode of an urban Anglo kiss ass blogger who thinks he is special.

A pendejo, who thinks we care about his political judgment.

Papi,

at the end of the afternoon, Segarra,council members and internal operatives really don't give a shirt about you or what you think. You are as crazy as that women who ran for office at the six and that felon friend/papi of your who ran at the 4th.

For someone who could care less about what I say, you seem to keep coming back. For no one to pay attention I find it interesting that the hit counter will pass 130,000 any day now.

Since you don't appear to be the brightest person, let me point something out, in the upper right corner of your screen is a red "X", click on that and you can leave the blog anytime you have had enough.

In the meantime, thanks for your comments, even the opinion of an idiot is important

Sounds like some of the frauds @ 550 Main St. who've been living off the city are getting a little nervous that their free ride may be over.

Keep it up Kevin.

I have nothing against Doctor Ruiz, how about getting rid of the whole dept.?
-----------------------------------
City of Richmond v. J.A. Croson Co., 488 U.S. 469 (1989) was a case in which the United States Supreme Court held that the city council of Richmond's minority set-aside program, giving preference to minority business enterprises (MBE) in the awarding of municipal contracts, was unconstitutional under the Equal Protection Clause. The Court found that the city failed to identify both the need for remedial action and that other non-discriminatory remedies would be insufficient.

This is a very logical re-organization and shows Pedro's thoughfullness.I do agree that Ms Ruiz should have been fired as she was at the center of alot of the Perez problems and to the best of my knowledge and belief, never came forward to warn the public or to go to the authorities on her own,especially about the Park Street compliance issues.

"a very logical re-organization"?

I agree with the decision on Lillian and the move of personnel to DPW, but 311 to OMB!? Makes no sense whatsoever.

Progress towards perpetually unattainable goal of social justice more important than observance of mere laws and constitution. Also, nice for Democratic Machine; vote for them because they will hand out jobs to minorities and cloak themselves in mantle of moral superiority even as they institute racial discrimination. Oh, but if a contractor fixes the bathrooms of Chief Machine Operators he may be relieved of the burden of racial mandates. Fire Ruiz, but also end the whole race spoil system run out of her office.

I'm sure "Dr." Ruiz will have no problem finding herself a new job. Perhaps she could contact the career counseling center @ the online "institution" where she procured (yes, procured, not earned) her "doctorate". Buena suerte y hasta luego, Doctora. P.S. Maybe "Dr." Rojano could hook you up with something down south...

I love it. Or, as they say on them internets, LMAO. I guess I missed the Dr.Rojano episode at the time. pb

Rojano moved to Hartford in 1986, but never got a license to practice medicine in Connecticut--and says he never wanted to.

``Doctors [here] practice more biological psychiatry and I'm not interested in that conceptually,'' he said. ``It's different. It's more medically oriented and I'm into social issues.''

His focus instead is what he refers to as ``community family therapy,'' a specialty--which he says he pioneered--that addresses psychological problems by tending to sociological problems like joblessness and poverty.

Here's another new career possibility for Dr. Ruiz. She can become a full-time consultant. She currently manages her daughter's beauty pageant career, maybe she could manage other's as well. Afterall, she herself is a former beauty queen. Too bad her seamstress is being transferred to corp counsel. Yes, that's right, she hired her seamstress to work with her in the former Office of Human Relations.

Here's another career suggestion for Lilly (no, not Cotto's term for her skin color, that's what she likes to be called as a nickname for Lillian): She can go back to the state DECD to her old secretarial job. One of her primary functions was to wear tight, low cut blouses and high heels while she delivered important reports to the Fed.

Hartford has been named a dead city, given up years ago by those who work downtown and live in the suburbs. Will firing a few on the city payroll make a difference and bring industry and jobs back to Hartford and bring small business back to Main Street and Farmington Ave and the South End? As a child back in the 1960s growing up outside the city, my grandparents would tell me to lock the car doors entering the city limits, and that is difficult to put behind you. When will Hartford get serious about crime and the illegal drugs that flow from the streets to the suburbs and clubs? If a city like New York City can get serious and clean up the streets why not Hartford? Too many friends tried to make Hartford a home and destination only to be thrown a bone and punched in the gut.
