Sex,, Drugs and Government Contracts? Not LA City Hall This Time

From Mary Ann Akers column at the Washington Post:

A story in in today's Washington Post paints a picture of an agency run amok with employees boozing it up, toking it up, teeing it up and snorting it up with representatives from the big oil and energy companies, from which the Minerals Management Service collects billions of dollars in royalties annually.

An Interior Department inspector general report discovered a "culture of substance abuse and promiscuity" in which agency workers took free golf trips and other gratuities from executives of Shell, Chevron, Hess and Gary-Williams Energy. They drank together, smoked pot, snorted cocaine and even had sex, according to the IG report. The hardest partyers at the Minerals Management Service earned the nickname "MMS Chicks."

VILLARAIGOSA'S POSE FOR MADAME TUSSAUD
by Jill Stewart
September 11, 2008 2:36 PM
Weekly writer Patrick McDonald has a great scoop today about Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa's purported "16-hour" work days, which are filled with ceremonies, PR events and travel -- including a recent session in which the "All About Me Mayor" posed for a wax statue of himself for Madame Tussaud's.
We scoured the Internet looking for a good shot of the mayor in a wax-like pose, but we have to admit that today's Los Angeles Times photo, in a blog by Shelby Grad, is even better.
