Athena....Back in the Day
Frontrunner for the award is likely Tilted Kilt owner Doreen Garrett who is just finishing up a stint as head of the Zoo Board. In addirtion to being a bar owner, Doreen owns a successful defense contractor based in Lyons Falls.Oh, that nice lady, Lynn Pietroski who runs the Chamber, would also be a good candidate. There are always the usual suspects like heads of not-for-profits, bankers, college executives, health care czars and any number of government employees.
Not on the list are cops, roller derby players, nurses, waitresses, Wal-Mart clerks, enlisted folks, housewives, reporters, politicians, madams or pop music stars.
And by the way, the instructions for nomination leave the window slightly ajar for a man to get the Athena Award if they "forge paths of leadership for other women to follow." A lot of guys would be self conscious about the honor, so I wouldn't be quick to nominate anyone.

Mr. Mayor. There is a 'War on Womyn", don't you know ?
How about nominating your senator?
Nominate yourself. You were at the center of many of the recent flood of hirings of women. Give yourself some credit. I know if Dannie were mayor, he'd be patting himself all over, his back. While still claiming there is a War on Women of course.
How about nominating your Assemblywoman ?
Yes, that North Country Department Store was a great service to the coummunity.
Hey 435 you must be kidding???? And Doreen Garrett? Because shesfriends with Matt D. Seriously Ms. Garrett had been on the recieving end of lots of Taxpayers $$$$$$$$$$$$$
I don't know how an owner of a breastaurant where women's bodies are exploited would we deserving of an Athena award. What leadership path is she forging for those waitresses?
re: Tilted Kilt
So ... it's acceptable to 'exploit' the sexuality of young women ... so long as a woman is in charge?
Look at the snide remarks in the past made to male owners of Hooter's.
Those breasts are all most of those girls have, so she is helping them make the best of their situation. Unless I can get a happy ending their, it is not exploiting. Exploiting is using someones with a strong back to lay bricks.
Good Point 5:58........Or gaining your wealth by having a war. Otis Tech.
http://youtu.be/oz9gbrXxf9M there you go war on women/womyn guy,sign up and get your free tshirt today!
No no no. Expoitation is when you tell a group of people they can become NOTHING without handouts and FreeStuff from the government. Then you get you bought and paid for media to tell them since diaper days that anyone who doesn't give them FreeStuff hates them and is racist. Then get you some mouths with legs who see racism in everything and partisanship in everything, you know the type. You do this long enough and you buy peoples' votes. That's exploitation. And in the long run, make sure that the situation for these same folks doesn't get any better. Make 'em dependent on your lies. That's exploitation, priceless.
1:23am... thank you for providing one of the best arguments on how corporate welfare and influence corrupts our electoral process… it needs to be eliminated.
It sure has hit a high point under Obama with General Electric and Solydra.
11:34 Please calm down. Gaining wealth by having a war my friggin ass. It was a unique and useful invention that made their money. Use your head. Take a break from your hysteria.
Please, can we have a little sedative dumped on this guy/girl/transgender?
