If you're researching an employee of the U.S. federal government, you can take a look at his or her job title, pay plan, grade level and bonuses thanks to the Washington Post. Their Federal Workers Lookup database has salary information on about 1.8 million individual civilian U.S. government employees who worked for the government during fiscal year 2002 (the latest year for which data are available).
You can search by last name, government agency or state. Your results will include employee name, job title or occupation, pay plan, pay grade, management role and bonuses received, all taken from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management's Central Personnel Data File.

Once you know an employee's salary grade, you can get an idea of his or her salary range from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. Under Pay Tables, you will find links to 2006 salary tables and related information. Here you can find rates of pay for executives and senior-level employees, administrative law judges, information technology specialists and others. Look for the locality tables for salaries broken down by region. Prior year salary tables are also available.
This is a site with a wealth of data, so take the time to look around, open links and explore.

BUSINESS WEEK: THE 50 MOST GENEROUS PHILANTHROPISTS
Business Week has taken a look at those who give, pulling the top 50 philanthropists from IRS reports, the Chronicle of Philanthropy, Guidestar, Forbes and many other sources. The writers acknowledge that valuing gifts and pledges is tricky, especially since many donors prefer to remain anonymous. But, it's an honorable effort and definitely worth a look.
Specials include an interactive table which you can re-sort by clicking on the headers as well as links to The Top Givers, Giving Goes Green, $tar Power and Extreme Givers.
