...by various analysts, including the un-conservative Nate Silver:
"Some *very* quick analysis which suggests the claim here of rigged results in Wisconsin is probably BS:
Run a regression on Wisc. counties with >=50K people, and you find that Clinton improved more in counties with only paper ballots. HOWEVER: the effect COMPLETELY DISAPPEARS once you control for race and education levels, the key factors in predicting vote shifts this year. Maybe a more complicated analysis would reveal something, but [it’s] usually bad news when a finding can’t survive a basic sanity check like this.
Nothing in Pennsylvania, either, whether or not you control for demographics. And Michigan has paper ballots everywhere, so not even sure what claim is being made there.""

If State A has the worst voter fraud in the country, then the effects of said fraud are limited within their borders. If there is no electoral college, then the effects of fraudulent votes in State A for Candidate X is that they will now start cancelling out votes for Candidate Y in other states. LBJ would have loved nothing more than to get rid of the electoral college.
Look at Virginia allowing felons to vote.
Getting rid of the electoral college is a fool's errand.
"You can switch to invisible mode at any time, which means for that specific drive:
(1) you will appear as offline to your friends;
(2) your Waze icon will show on the map;
(3) you will not be able to send reports, add/edit places, or send messages to friends and other Wazers."
#2 doesn't make any sense to me. Do I need Ron Weasley to snag me the invisibility cloak?
There's going to be a lot of noise. I would suggest taking a wait-and-see attitude for some weeks or months before bringing down the hammer. I have seen others say they had no issue.
As noted elsewhere in this discussion, we need to have good pipeline regs, but let's not compare oil spills in nature to rail car accidents in which lots of oil gets spilled anyway AND which directly lead to the deaths of dozens of people.
They're only shedding 1.4 million subscribers. The others are being spun off to a corporation which they will control and they're probably buy out Charter in 5-10 years. This is a low-ball offer. I would bet more is to come.
Do Time Warner customers have access to watch the Olympics online? I know that TWC has *not* signed the deal with NBC for NBC Sports Live Extra for watching EPL games online or via mobile devices. Does that exclusion include the Olympics?
The procrastinators need to get off their a** and upgrade their systems, replace them with *nix/MacOS boxes, or whatever it takes to get off Windows XP. Windows XP is an 11-year old OS and users have known for years that this date was coming. For users to be upset at Microsoft is the height of absurdity. Apple gives their operating systems significantly shorter support and yet nobody complains about them.
So many of the papers leaned to the left so far, that many moderates and conservatives said "Forget about it." Amazing that he makes no allusion to that as a possible cause. I have subscribed all these years but am aware of how many lefties staff the newsroom and the editorial boards.
Tell them that many people have been infected by ads that were serving up mal-ware. *That* is one huge reason to block ads. (Never mind some of the questionable tastes of the ads.)
The electoral process acts as a firewall against voter fraud. Going by popular vote will increase the incentive for voter fraud. Today, a fraudulent vote in New York can only affect matters in New York. Under popular vote, that same vote can affect votes in 49 other states. If you had a state like California which is heavily run by one party (Democratic, in this case), they could wink and nod as thousands of people stuff the ballots throughout the state.
The thought is that there was s*x in the Garden before he ate the apple. See Aquinas for details.
As for the decreasing life-span in the Old Testament, Catholic thought has been that it was because we were getting farther from the Garden and more steeped in sin.
You may disagree with Santorum, but to compare him to a terrorist group that is responsible for the intentional deaths of hundreds (thousands?) of innocent lives is simply WAY over the top.
1. What about Safari for Windows?
2. So...Leopard was released less than four years ago, after Windows Vista came out in 2006, yet Apple can't be bothered to patch it?
His question is legit. Hey, everyone knew Bush's grades but no one cares about Obama's grades? (We only know learned that Gore got a "D" in natural science.) They dug into Jack Ryan's sealed divorce decree when he was running for Senate in Illinois but have no time to bother digging into our current president? The press is complete hypocrisy.
The headline does not say what the summary text says.
The headline implies at no net filtering would ever be allowed, but the summary only says it cannot be required.

Completely agreed. Elimination of cash means the government knows everything you are doing.

I didn't realize how political it had gotten. The Wicked Witch of the West probably got a better write-up from them.

Krebs' latest post discusses that it's highly likely that this upload is fake.

The kids listen to Grooveshark, which has no commercials and no limits (of which I am aware). When is the hammer falling on it?
Yes, and the Research 2000 scandal is helping Kos' reputation even more! http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0710/39304.html
