CNN Mad at Low-Voting Obama County, Not Worried Over No-Voting Romney Counties
CNN was gobsmacked over a county in Texas that saw an extremely low voter turnout for Barack Obama in the late elections. On the other hand the several counties in Ohio and Pennsylvania that had zero votes for Mitt Romney didn't bother the cable Network at all.
On Friday, November 16, CNN aired an "expose" of sorts about the low Obama votes that occurred in King County Texas and took their cameras south to find out why so few voters there wanted to vote for the President.
Naturally, correspondent Gary Tuchman and the CNN crew wanted to find out if everyone in King County were racist. All Mr. Tuchman's questions were meant to elicit examples of the King County resident's backwards attitudes and racism.
CNN was simply outraged that only 3.4 percent of King County's voters thought well enough of Barack Obama to vote for him on Election Day. It was a travesty.
Oh, we got lLots of outrage and shock from CNN. How could King Country be so evil as to have so few Obama voters. Of course, one might ask the same question about 68 precincts where Mitt Romney got zero votes. How is it even statistically possible for Romney to have gotten zero votes in that same election?
At least a few voters in King County pulled the lever for Obama.
As it happens, 59 precincts in Philadelphia and 9 precincts in Cuyahoga County, Ohio had exactly no votes at all for Mitt Romney.
So, what about CNN's outrageously outraged report on those anti-Romney counties? Don't hold your breath waiting for it.
CNN even mentioned these anti-Romney counties at the tail end of its anti-Obama county story. And what did they say about those anti-Romney counties? Meh, not a big deal.
CNN explained it all away saying that the several areas across two states that had no Romney votes was perfectly understandable. They were African American counties, you see. Why it's perfectly reasonable that no Blacks would vote for Romney. See? No big deal.
But famed election analyst Larry Sabato of the University of Virginia was a bit taken aback by so many precincts that saw not even one Romney vote.
"I'd be surprised if there weren't a handful of precincts that didn't cast a vote for Romney," the regular Fox News guest who also heads the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, said.
"Not a single vote for Romney or even an error? That's worth looking into," he added.
Larry is right. These results in Ohio and Philly smack of vote fraud.

Look awesome, not comfortable for me
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I bought a pair of these for my Niner Jet 9 RDO earlier this year and have taken it out on 5-10 rides at this point. On 2+ hour rides, they make my hands start to cramp - there's just no cushion or give in the rubber at all, it's like I'm gripping metal (I guess I should have known better, given the name). I'm also not a huge fan of the thumb indentation, it's just not that ergonomic for my hands in the end.

Give the handlebar a bit of accent color
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Comfortable grips that give a bit of accent and more expensive look compared to the cheaper rubber look. I got a Red/Black set on MTB that matches with the red accent from the headset.

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These grips are very comfortable and performed excellently on my 3 day adventure to Gooseberry Mesa, Brianhead (Bunker & Dark Hallow) and Whole Enchilada! Only weird aspect is that the grips use 2 different sized allen bolts (which they provide). Colors are vibrant (gold).

what size bars are they for? 7/8" or 1 1/8"?
Jocelyn from Portland Design Works
Hi Ray, our Speed Metal grips will fit handlebars sized 22.0 - 22.2mm handlebars. So they'll work fine 7/8" bars, but won't fit 1 1/8". Thanks!

Seven-inch treats fit your wrist to cover the gap between your gloves & your coat. They are also perfect for any time you feel a chill, & they're especially nice if you suffer from arthritis. They can be folded over for twice the warmth, too!
About seven inches long, they've lot lots of stretch for wrists big and small.
Additional Info:
Due to the hand dyed factor, color imperfections are possible.
We are aware of the concerns about angora sourcing and are actively avoiding angora socks that come from uncertain sources. We have worked with the folks at Orkney Angora since 2004. Until recently they did all of their own rabbit farming and although they now outsource, they keep a close eye on their supplier, even personally checking in to oversee the animals' welfare to make sure they can provide cruelty-free socks and warmers. For more information, please view Orkney Angora's statement.
Fiber Content: 50% angora, 50% lambswool.
The Fawn, Navy and Light Bottle Green have different fiber content:46% angora 37% wool 9% polyamide 8% elastan.
We recommend hand washing these in cold or cool water. Roll in a towel to remove excess moisture and reshape before drying flat.
Soft and silky, angora fiber has a fluffy halo and hollow fibers that create a fantastic thermal wool. Its super cozy properties can be beneficial for arthritis and other cold-induced aches and pains. Angora fiber can only be produced by Angora rabbits (Angora goats produce mohair) and grooming their fur is a necessary part of their health care, they can get hairballs just like cats! There are some great facts about angora wool on its page for the 2009 International Year of Natural Fibers.

Hey, I was just wondering when you'd be restocking these... the black in specific, actually. I've been keeping my eye on them, but the longer I watch, the less stocked colours there are without any signs of restocking.
Not sure how to ask on the same question, so I'm sorry about this second one... but I need black ones for a costume. How dyeable are these, which colour would you recommend for dying, and what type of dye should be used?
This is quite possibly the single greatest idea in the history of merchandising! Love me some socks!

Biknd Helium protects your bike with air
The Biknd Helium is a bicycle shipping case that uses inflatable bladders to protect one's bike
Article Summary
If you've shelled out several thousand dollars for a high-end road or mountain bike, it's understandable that you might want to bring it with you when you travel to far-away cycling locales. Should you be traveling to compete in a race, it's pretty much essential that you bring the bike you've trained on. It's also understandable, however, that you might not want to entrust the safety of your precious cargo to a simple cardboard box or giant plastic bag. While several companies offer foam-padded bicycle-shipping cases, Biknd takes a different approach with its Helium case – it uses inflatable air bladders to protect your ride.

Mark Cuban's $1M challenge to Donald Trump
Dallas Mavericks owner tries to one-up Trump's $5 million offer
Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban has a $1 million challenge for Donald Trump.
In response to Trump's $5 million offer to the president last month, the multimillionaire issued a dare of his own.
"Donald, you shave your head, $1 million to any charity you want," Cuban told the Fox affiliate in Dallas.
Trump's "very, very big" offer to donate $5 million to charity in exchange for President Barack Obama's college transcripts and passport records expired last week without comment from Obama or his campaign, the New York Daily News reported.
Trump declared it's "obvious" the president wasn't born in the United States in response.
According to TMZ, Trump has yet to respond to Cuban's offer.
The real estate mogul also has yet to respond to the Twitter campaign to funnel at least some of Trump's $5 million offer to victims of Superstorm Sandy.

The Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation was established in 1997, before the Arizona Diamondbacks ever played a major league game. The Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation focuses on the three areas of need: homelessness, indigent healthcare and youth education programs of all types. To date, the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation have made charitable contributions totaling more than $41 million to non-profit organizations form across Arizona. Of the $41 million total, $30 million has been distributed through the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation.
The Majority of funds are raised through events such as the annual Evening on the Diamond gala, 50/50 Raffle, D-backs Celebrity Golf Classic, D-backs Race Against Cancer, the D-backs License Plate program, Chase Field tours, Mystery Ball, Online Auctions and major gifts from our players and partners in our community.
The Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation began awarding Grand Slam Award grants in 2002 to make a larger impact on community organizations by providing a grant in the amount of $15,000-$100,000. Overall, 38 Grand Slam Awards totaling over $3.5 million have been distributed from 2002-13.
Previous Grand Slam Awards recipients that were awarded $100,000 to improve youth programs included Junior Achievement of Arizona to prepare children to succeed in a global economy and to Great Hearts Academies' Teleos Prep Academy to be the first of its kind in the metro Phoenix area to deliver a top-tier, college prep education in a low-income community. The $100,000 grants have also assisted with indigent healthcare concerns in the Valley by providing Clinica Adelante a 39-foot mobile medical clinic to provide health-care services at 17 schools in 11 rural communities and establishing a D-backs Good DeedWorks program with SARRC to provide teens with autism disorders training, mentoring and volunteer experiences as a means of occupational therapy. Additional grants were awarded to homeless causes such as the Desert Mission Food Bank to provide a refrigerated truck to deliver food throughout the Valley and to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul's evening meal program.
The Grand Slam Awards are made possible by fundraising efforts by the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation and by contributions from the D-backs' Partnership Group.
The Grand Slam Award application period has closed for 2015 funding. Non-profits that applied for this grant program will be notified of the results by December 31, 2014. Applications for 2016 funding will be available on May 15, 2015.
In addition to the Grand Slam Awards, Program Grants are given statewide to non-profit organizations in the amounts of $1,000 to $5,000. All 501(c)3 non-profit organizations in Arizona are welcome to apply for funding, however funding must be for serving the people of Arizona.
The Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation has awarded more than 920 program grants totaling $4.3 million since 1998.
The Program Grant application period has closed for 2015 funding. Non-profits that applied for this grant program will be notified of the results by December 31, 2014. Applications for 2016 funding will be available on May 15, 2015.
Since 2000, Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation has built or refurbished 34 baseball fields as part of the "Diamonds Back" Youth Field Building Program. The fields are built through the aid of corporate sponsor APS, local businesses, funds from Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation and monetary donations from individual players. Fields are dedicated in Diamondbacks players' names and generally feature new lights, an electronic scoreboard, new fencing and backstops, new irrigation and new dirtwork and/or grass. The locations of the fields are determined through a grant process.

The Arizona Diamondbacks and the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation are devoted to youth sports across Arizona. The D-backs Give Back PLAY BALL fund, supported by Chase and Western Refining, will support the outstanding efforts of Arizona's dedicated parents, mentors, and coaches to expand the game of baseball and softball and inspire Arizona's kids to PLAY BALL. Our goal is to ensure that every child who has a desire to learn and play the D-backs way -- has that opportunity.

John Maynard Keynes
United Press International
John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946), the British economist who developed the theory that increasing government deficits stimulate a sluggish economy, was long the guiding light of liberal economists. He is considered one of the major economists of the 20th century. And these days, he is enjoying a comeback.
In his times, he quarreled with laissez-faire economic policies, and with the beliefs that all uncertainty could be reduced to measurable risk, that asset prices always reflected fundamentals and that unregulated markets would in general be very stable.
Keynes created an economics whose starting point was that not all future events could be reduced to measurable risk. There was a residue of genuine uncertainty, and this made disaster an ever-present possibility, not a once-in-a-lifetime "shock." Investment was more an act of faith than a scientific calculation of probabilities. And in this fact lay the possibility of huge systemic mistakes.
His basic question was: How do rational people behave under conditions of uncertainty? The answer he gave was profound and extends far beyond economics. People fall back on "conventions," which give them the assurance that they are doing the right thing. The chief of these are the assumptions that the future will be like the past (witness all the financial models that assumed housing prices wouldn't fall) and that current prices correctly sum up "future prospects." Above all, we run with the crowd. A master of aphorism, Keynes wrote that a "sound banker" is one who, "when he is ruined, is ruined in a conventional and orthodox way."
But any view of the future based on what Keynes called "so flimsy a foundation" is liable to "sudden and violent changes" when the news changes. Investors do not process new information efficiently because they don't know which information is relevant. Conventional behavior easily turns into herd behavior. Financial markets are punctuated by alternating currents of euphoria and panic.
Keynes's prescriptions were guided by his conception of money, which plays a disturbing role in his economics. Most economists have seen money simply as a means of payment, an improvement on barter. Keynes emphasized its role as a "store of value." Why, he asked, should anyone outside a lunatic asylum wish to "hold" money? The answer he gave was that "holding" money was a way of postponing transactions. The "desire to hold money as a store of wealth is a barometer of the degree of our distrust of our own calculations and conventions concerning the future. . . . The possession of actual money lulls our disquietude; and the premium we require to make us part with money is a measure of the degree of our disquietude." The same reliance on "conventional" thinking that leads investors to spend profligately at certain times leads them to be highly cautious at others. Even a relatively weak dollar may, at moments of high uncertainty, seem more "secure" than any other asset.
It is this flight into cash that makes interest-rate policy an uncertain agent of recovery. If managers of banks and companies hold pessimistic views about the future, they will raise the price they charge for "giving up liquidity," even though the central bank might be flooding the economy with cash. That is why Keynes did not think cutting the central bank's interest rate would necessarily — and certainly not quickly — lower the interest rates charged on different types of loans. This was his main argument for the use of government stimulus to fight a depression. There was only one sure way to get an increase in spending in the face of an extreme private-sector reluctance to spend, and that was for the government to spend the money itself.
This, in a nutshell, was Keynes's economics. His purpose, as he saw it, was not to destroy capitalism but to save it from itself. — From "The Remedist," by Robert Skidelsky, The Times, December 2008Highlights From the Archive

Hi Heather Just wanted to let you know that I featured this post on my Facebook page during April and people loved it. It made it into the top 20 for the month, of which I always do a round up. So today I've featured you on my blog as well (link below). Thanks for such an awesome post! http://craftsbyamanda.com/2014/05/great-craft-ideas-may-2014.html
I was inspired by your idea here to create a starburst mirror of my own and wanted to give credit where credit is due. Mine will end up looking nothing like your classy version and its still in the preliminary stages but when I posted my pics to my Facebook page, I included the link to yours. I'll be sure to do the same when I post my finished project to my own blog. Thank you for taking the time to write this tutorial and sharing it with us.

RICHMOND (AP) -- In Virginia's statewide and legislative primaries Tuesday, some old intraparty scores will be settled.
Democrats will pick their nominees for lieutenant governor between state Sen. Ralph Northam and former Obama White House technology chief Aneesh Chopra, and for attorney general between state Sen. Mark Herring and Fairfax lawyer Justin Fairfax.
The real bad blood is lower on the ticket, where seven House incumbents, including five Republicans, face nomination challenges from newcomers who believe they've broken faith within their parties.
Among Republicans facing primaries are House Speaker Bill Howell and three committee chairmen.
The most heated Democratic challenge is to Del. Rosalyn Dance, a former mayor of Petersburg, whose opponent has endorsements from Democratic House and Senate members.
Polls are open from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

I am a 34 C so I guess I will be missing out on this giveaway. Thanks so much though! I think lots of other girls would absolutely from this giveaway!!:) ps. i posted this on your wedding post but not sure if you read those comments since that post is older..
I have a shoe question- I'm a newcomer to your blog and love it! I'm Korean-American, also short and petite (4'11), and I just got engaged.
My fiance is a lot taller than me.. I was wondering how tall your heels were at your wedding. Do you have any brands to recommend, or tips on keeping feet comfortable?
Also, thanks so much for the bridal makeup tips. I am going for a clean, pinkish, Korean drama look... again thank you so much! <3
God bless <3Sarah: After I choose a winner, I'll verify everything with them. :)
Susan Hong: I don't actually do anything to whiten my teeth other than using that Aquafresh extreme clean toothpaste. Does that count? ^.^
My wedding heels were 4" tall. To keep them more comfortable, look into Insolia heel inserts, which shift the pressure to the back of your feet instead of all on the balls of your feet. Dr. Scholl's also has a similar product that is nice too. Hope that helps!- OcellianSeptember 12, 2010 at 10:57 AM

A South Kingstown man has come forward to claim $2 million in Powerball winnings.
Rhode Island Lottery officials say the man claimed the prize at lottery headquarters on Thursday, bringing his wife to tears.
Earlier in the day he started screaming when he checked the numbers in the newspaper and saw he had matched five out of five — just not the Powerball number.
Normally matching five numbers pays out $1 million but he purchased the Power Play option, which doubled the prize.
He bought the ticket for Wednesday night's drawing at Commons Convenience on South County Commons Way in South Kingstown.
Lottery officials are waiting for the winner of $1 million from the Million Dollar Raffle drawing held on New Year's Eve to come forward.

SarVecchioSartori SarVecchio wraps a feel good story about the American Worker in its nutty, caramelly parmesan-esque flavor- a combination that keeps us coming back for more. After a notable cheese giant decided to close the Antigo, Wisconsin plant that produced its most flavorful (perhaps ONLY flavorful) cheese, workers pooled their resources, bought the plant, and showed the big guy that Americans could handle cheese with incredible flavor that didn't come in a can.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

Pressed means original (not burned) and the price will vary, but the official resellers are here:
ok cheers... and i know this is gonna sound weird... and im sure you probably wont know.. but do they deliver to greece lol and thanks for all the help... you've saved me a lot of money on dvd-rs lol
Hi Angelos123,
I´m sure you can find a vendor on that list that will ship to Greece. Don´t forget that the SM disks have to be as the same region as your ps3. so if you have a PAL machine you´ll probably want a european vendor for PAL SM discs.
I got mine from Chipspain.com
I think they ship worldwide.
There's a new version of InfoGB for the ps2 by KarasQ. This is the 1st gameboy emulator to work on the ps3.
Use Psxloader with option C (SMS) to launch the emulator. Gameboy in HD!
Last edited by aries2k6; 04-22-2009 at 05:55 PM Reason: forgot to attach the emu
There´s something wrong with the FCEultra emu I posted. I´m not sure what happened but it was an older version anyway.
Here´s 0.92 Beta. it´s the last version Raganarok posted the source to.
He also said newer versions would be compatible on the ps3 but I haven´t heard any news for awhile.
If the need to center the screen on your TV, hit the select button to get to the emulators options. you can than save the configuration.
This elf can be launched directly from SM by renaming it to a SMB0OT#.ELF or with uLaunch.elf.
You can still use it with psxloader. option D
Here´s a port of the 2d shooter Tyrian. works with option D on psxloader. put all the files inside the psxloader folder. Attachment below.
and another little ps2 homebrew game that works with psxloader (option C SMS). It´s called Ballion. I´m not sure who developed it but it´s not bad. If anyone wants to try it out, I put it up as an attachment.
I know it´s no big thing but there´s no other homebrew besides ps2brew, that can be used on the ps3, right now. so I decided to bring up the old thread top post it.
There´s a few but you can´t go wrong with Sandisk Cruzers. Adata pens also seem to work. Intuix usb pen with U3. PSP always work.
Until Sony blocks Swap Magic it will work with any future PS3 Firmware updates... meaning there is no need for people to ask if it works with 3.01 etc.
If this or anything is ever 'blocked' it will be in the Site News so don't worry.
Just curious.. But cannot we run USBextreme or HDD Loader PS2 homebrew apps using swapmagic ? Sorry.. read this thread and didnt see any info.. though i did see someone mention that a coder is trying to get usb extreme to work ?
