Do We Really Want to Reclaim the 80's?
Do We Really Want to Reclaim the 80's?

We're at this very curious juncture in fashion whereby the fads of our forefathers are returning full force. By forefathers, I'm referring to anyone and everyone who loyally tuned in to watch Full House on Friday nights. Full House is great and the comedy is cute, but this family photo (snapped circa 1980-ish) is neither great nor cute. Let it serve as a visual warning: we're walking a slippery slope and we cannot allow our fondness for 80's fashion to flourish any further. Waste no time: trash that stock of Aqua Net now, before it's too late. And, yes, you're very welcome.

I'm a starting game designer contemplating what I should earn my major in after getting my basic game design degree. I am in development of a survival horror zombie title that puts you in a cooperative open environment with a bit of crafting, a bit of free running, a bit of hunting and survival, and a whole lot of zombies. Hopefully this game turns out how I envision it because I think a lot of people would enjoy it.

Article Summary
If you're still a little strapped for cash and can't afford a powerboat and a submarine, then you might want to consider this cross between the two - the Hyper-Sub. On top of the water it boasts speeds of 40 knots with a range of 500 surface miles thanks to twin 440 horsepower inboard Yanmar diesel engines and a 525-gallon fuel tank, while underwater it can dive to depths of 250 feet using an electric over hydraulic self-recharging dive system.

by Brandon L. Garrett. Since the 2011 publication of Convicting the Innocent: Where Criminal Prosecutions Go Wrong, Professor Garrett has written widely on issues of criminal procedure, forensic science, and the law. Below, he outlines three recent Supreme Court rulings whose importance has been overshadowed by the term's several high profile and historic decisions. This piece is cross-posted on the Harvard University Press Blog.
With the past Term's Supreme Court's decisions behind us, commentators, scholars, and judges, are still processing the implications of the major decisions on race, voting rights, and same sex marriage. Understandably less noticed have been three decisions with real implications for criminal justice. In cases concerning the procedural barriers to relief when evidence of innocence arises after conviction, the expanded collection and storage of DNA, and the conduct of police interrogations, the Court issued rulings that bear on the accuracy of our criminal justice system.
First, the Court continues to recognize that innocence should be an important consideration for federal judges reviewing prisoners' habeas petitions. In McQuiggan v. Perkins, the Court recognized for the first time that evidence of a prisoner's innocence can provide an exception to the restrictive one-year statute of limitations imposed in 1996 by Congress in the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act (AEDPA). However, the Court somewhat gratuitously emphasized that this innocence exception would be "severely confined" and that the class of prisoners able to show that a jury presented with new evidence would be likely not to convict may be quite small.

Another senior prom
Trezevant residents, CBU students host dance
A dance to celebrate the opening of the new lobby at Trezevant, 177 North Highland, was held March 25. The "senior prom" was an idea brought to Trezevant by a group of Christian Brothers University students from Zeta Tau Alpha.
The students first became familiar with Trezevant last year when they visited the facility to give two residents, Sarah Fox Carter and Margaret Wilson, their 75-year pins for membership in ZTA.
After the visit to Trezevant, ZTA members decided to propose a dance, which coincided with the timing of the opening of Trezevant's new lobby. The lobby has a large wood floor perfect for dancing. The new lobby is just one of the many additions and upgrades that is part of the Trezevant community's $120 million expansion.
The ZTA chapter from CBU invited members of CBU's Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity to join them in the effort. Both Greek groups organized the dance and created and hung all decorations for the dance.
"The event was a huge success," said Obie Sue Thomas, director of resident services for Trezevant. "The residents raved about it, and we're already in discussions with ZTA about making this dance an annual event."

An Anthropologist's Perspective | #D11
Although race isn't biological fact, it still thrusts itself into America's legislation, job market, and economy.
For reasons that escape me, Professor Michael Morris accepted me into the Entrepreneurship and Empowerment in South Africa (EESA) program. I can't tell if it's because of, or despite, my rowdy and argumentative nature, though I sometimes relate to Prof. Morris' own brashness. Regardless, for the next two months, I enjoy the privilege of consulting for historically disadvantaged entrepreneurs in the townships of South Africa. Afterwards, I'll venture out to rendezvous with my South African readers, including a couple I introduced through m'blog, and a onetime guest writer!

I understand that WAAD is meant for internal organizational accounts. I understand the concepts behind ADFS and other "AD in the cloud" related topics. But is there really anything that is preventing WAAD to be used for public accounts?
I want to build a public facing web site using ASP.Net MVC. I will use WIF to implement claims authentication and plan to use ACS as a claims federation provider. I want to allow the end users to login using Social Network Accounts (out of the box with ACS). But I also want to allow users to register their own user name and passwords for my web site. Can I use WAAD for this part?
Of course I could build my own custom STS. Or I could use Thinktecture IdentityServer for this purpose. But there are some clear advantages of sticking with WAAD:
- simplicity (to set up WAAD as a STS to ACS takes just few clicks)
- performance, security, reliability guaranteed by Azure SLAs
Is there any disadvantage to this approach?

From the Publisher"This book is a treasure. Written on several levels (amateur, teen, adult, professional) this well illustrated text covers what is known about dinosaurs, the arguments, debates, the history of paleontology and some of the folk who study it. Great index, masterfully written. A wonderful read for the novice to expert. 3 stars. A must for anyone seriously interested in the field."
Journal of the American Association of Forensic Dentists
Review of the first edition:
"I am excited to see that they authors have selected not to overwhelm the student with detail."
Mark Oiumette,Hardin-Simmons University
Review of the first edition:
"Does an excellent job of explaining cladistics."
Bill Zinsmeister,Purdue University
Review of the first edition:
"Well written … the author's sense of humor makes it enjoyable to read; it summarizes most of the important topics in dinosaur paleontology using current information."
Carol Waddell-Sheets,Canisius College
Review of the first edition:
"This is an outstanding contribution for anyone teaching a course involving dinosaurs … it is reasonably short and very much up to date."
Sherwood Wise,Florida State University
Review of the first edition:
"It's a nice length - subjects are discussed with the appropriate amount of depth and level of coverage. The writing style and tone is engaging and I like the incorporation of phylogeny."
David Varricchio,Montana State University
Review of the first edition:
"Very up-to-date information … superior illustration."
John Taylor,Indiana University of Pennsylvania
Review of the first edition:
"It's the best fit for my course of any book out there because it's focused less on the dinosaurs themselves and more on how dinosaurs illustrate important lessons in the history of life … I'm definitely going to adopt it for my course."
Dr J. Bret Bennington,Hofstra University
Review of the first edition:
"Dinosaurs remain a 'hot' topic … To explore their past world, one needs to have a very good guide. With the publication of the book by Fastovsky and Weishampel, the latter is now available...demonstrates an outstanding degree of comprehensity … an outstanding synthesis of the modern knowledge on dinosaurs."
Dr Dmitry Ruban, The German Geological/Palaeontological Journal
Review of the first edition:
"It is an admirable work, something unlike I have seen in other texts in the field. The 240-page lexicon is elegant and freshly instructive. I find this text compact, self-contained and interesting to read … I recommend it for anyone wishing to have a perspective of Dr Denn's work in process stability and rheology."
Gibson Batch,Rheology Bulletin
Review of the first edition:
"… well-written, highly visual, engaging, and informative book … Highly recommended."
Review of the first edition:
"If you wish to know about the jaw mechanics in Euornithopoda, or if the giant femur of an adult Maiasaura makes you happy, this book will become the best gift for you! … The indices of subjects and genera are very detailed and useful. It is great that the Latin name is translated for each taxon … an outstanding synthesis of the modern knowledge on dinosaurs. And it will remain so for at least 1-2 decades. The reviewer has no idea other than to recommend this book strongly for everyone deeply interested in the world of dinosaurs and the evolutionary theory."
Zentralblatt für Geologie und Paläontologie
Review of the first edition:
"… it is undoubtedly the case that Fastovsky and Weishampel have been at the forefront of this genre. … concise as well as being accessible and highly informative on the topic of dinosaurs and the science that can be applied to understanding them. As a well-structured, thoughtful and helpful undergraduate teaching guide it is absolutely excellent."
David Norman, The Geographical Journal
Review of the first edition:
"Overall I find Dinosaurs: A Concise Natural History to be a welcome improvement over what in my opinion was already the best dinosaur textbook on the market."
William Parker, Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology
"… the most comprehensive and useful text on dinosaurs on the market. It's both authoritative and whimsical, providing the student with a great background on dinosaurs and on the sciences needed to understand them. It's fun to read and [has] great illustrations too."
Kevin Padian, Museum of Paleontology, University of California, Berkeley

Peter K Burian: What the heck size is A3+?? I guess people in England know, but for the rest of us, could someone not have included that info? I had to do a google search.
A3+ paper measures 329mm × 483mm which is about 12.9 × 19.0 inches
In fact it is a A3 printer but it will also accept a paper roll that has the size of a endless A3 paper, as seen on the image above.
Hope this is not the expected bt not confirmed X100T ;-) Electronic viewfinder, tilt screen, ...
In the mean time I already switched to fuji - sorry nikon, really.
I had the chance to use it for an evening. Next to all the pros and cons already written I have two comments: The four way control buttons are quite on the same level as the back plate and I could not identify them clearly while keeping my eyes on the viewfinder. The second is that the X-T1 with the grip and the 56mm 1.2 lens is a heavy beast.
Why do I feel that these images are not as sharp as expected them to be?
When I see the quality and pleasure I have shooting with the X100 and the quality of portraits with the X-E1 armed with the zoom or the xf 35mm I am quite sure to have soon a rather good portrait lens in my hands. What the 14mm is at the wide end I hope the 56mm will be for portraits.
I am happy to face an f1.2 lens, but I will not use this aperture all the time. I hope to have a firm "click" for the major stops at the aperture ring. Yes – I think I will like the lens for its feeling, for the image quality and the challenge I will face to manage my model in the same quality the Fuji engineers already did to design and build it.
armanius: "This kind of responsiveness is all-too-rare, and can only help win the confidence of customers."
I am not too keen on giving so much credit to Fuji for "improving" the X series with firmware upgrades. I'd much rather Fuji do its R&D thoroughly before releasing the product.
When the XPro1 first launched and the aperture blade chatter was bugging many people (including me), I got Fuji "front men" such as the Fuji Guys making all sorts of excuse why a user should not care about the chatter. Or how the AF really wasn't as bad as people were portraying it to be. Then Fuji started coming up with firmware upgrades fixing what Fuji was claiming to be a non-issue to begin with.
Did Fuji really believe those were non-issues? Was it sloppy testing? Or simply hoping that users won't notice or care?
I'm glad and happy that X series has improved. But let's not laud Fuji for fixing something that shouldn't have needed to be fixed if Fuji had done it right from the get go.
I find it quite positive that Fuji is litenig to the users. I can also interprete it as we, as potographers, are important to Fuji. They are by the few who did change the software. I do not see many perfect cameras on the market, but Fuji are improving something that was already quite good.
RG70: I picked up an X-E2 yesterday. Walked into the shop and they had just placed them on display so I got to have a play and ended up purchasing on impulse. I find the camera is pretty much as all the reviewers have stated - incremental improvements that add up to a brilliant camera. Now I just need to decide whether to keep my X-E1 or to sell it.
Personally I prefer a combination of one X100* and one X-E*. Rather than 2 X-E's.
I am ready to pay a decent price for a good peace of software. But I have the irrational feeling that Adobe is taking control over my PICTURES. Once I stop paying the software will stop working and I will loose access to my own artwork? No way.
AndreyT: At first one wonders what was the point of reposting these images again, after we have seen them hundreds of times already (they were making rounds around the Net for a few years now). But then one notices that there's an obvious political bias in the selection of these images: out of all those well-known Lego photo recreation pictures only the ones were cherry picked that fit certain propaganda-censorship agenda. And then a few "neutral" pictures were added to masquerade the original intent. Apparently someone at "dpreview staff" saw this veiled trolling opportunity and took it.
whould you be so nice and share the links to the other sources in the net you are talking about?
Wonderful! Did you get them all?
I once loved Nikon. Then I discovered my Fuji X100 with all the manuals on the right place in a clean design. Now I hoped to use my lenses again, but the design is all but clean. Not for me. Sorry Nikon.
It comes close to what I experienced. The 35mm lens for the portrait might not be the same as my DSLR 60mm or 90mm, but the reactions of the people are much much more positive. So I do have pictures where normal persons accept to be copied into a digital camera. Even for this my X100 earns nicer comments than my X-E1.
Of minor interest. Nice idea, but not more.
If somebody takes a foto of mine in the street where I have at least a chance to meet him and communicate with him/her I am potentially able to decide about it.
When somebody takes pictures of me without any chance of personal reaction or simple human exchange I totally disagree. I feel like somebody is stealing someting. Fact is that the "hunter" uses me as a simple object.
For me it is part of my freedom and respect in human interactions to at least have a chance to say "no".
macker: Any chance the might do something for Fujifilm X System ??
I asked them and the answer was "not yet".
I love the tool in addition to lightroom since version 2! Still I miss the fuji x sensor support and that turns me mad. In particular I used it for a quick preview and a complex renaming. But if it does not read fuji RAW files ...
tcab: What about Fuji x100 raw support - doesn't that need improvement too?
Most people can't get x100 raw to look as good as in camera jpeg, which shouldn't really be the case. I've tried it myself and simply gone back to jpeg - it's just too hard fiddling with the raw files.
Has Adobe forgotten the x100 and the x100s?
The X100 in opposite to X100s, X-E1, etc. has a standard pattern. Once the RAW file read all optimizatin algos work fine as on all other sensors. Therefore until now X100 RAW files looked better in some situations that the X-E1 RAW files.
It takes a great expertise to optimize something that is relatively new. Let's see if now the X-E1 can produce images that look sensibly better than the X100.
I never imagined it as such a manual and industrial process. Nice.
nothing really new. for a overview, even for beginners, really not complete enough.

Hilary Duff, CEO

Is Hilary trying to be the next MK and Ashley? Under the brand Stuff by Duff, Hilary will be launching several products from clothing to home decor aimed at the Tween market. She just named herself Chief Executive and Designer of her fashion and lifestyle company, and hired the Olsen's former manager to lead her merchandise empire. Pretty ambitious of Ms Duff.
This fall you can find Hilary's stuff at stores such as Wal-Mart and Target. Good luck to Hilary. MK and Ashley are a tough act to follow. Not so sure about this one, although the Tween market does seem to be on fire.

Newcastle united: Knights simply too good by coming together and staying committed

Knights' armour shines, but it was against Parra
Phil Gould Sunday's victory by Newcastle over Parramatta showed yet again the value of great leadership and experience in a football club.
Fine game but not quite in top league
Phil Gould What a great event on Friday night. There are so many things to talk about as a result of what we witnessed.
One-stop shop is a sign of the times
Phil Gould If there is one positive to come out of the whole ASADA debacle, then it is the establishment of the NRL integrity unit.
Distracted Roosters forgot about game at hand
Phil Gould Attitude is everything. In sport, we use terms such as ''focus on the process'', ''stay in the moment'', '' don't dwell on the past'', ''don't get your head too far into the future''.
Clash of old rivals deserves full house
Phil Gould Next Friday night's match between the Roosters and Rabbitohs represents the most anticipated clash of the season.

Phil Gould Before big games, I would often challenge my players with the question: ''Can we win without the ball?''
Noise and aggro are spoiling the game

Touch of skill shown to form partnership
Phil Gould The NRL and Touch Football Australia launched a historic sporting partnership last week representing the biggest boost to participation and game development in the history of either sport.
Too easy to make coach a scapegoat
Phil Gould What do we want from a coach? What do we expect from a coach? How can people tell a good coach from a not-so-good coach if they have never themselves been coached by this person?
Fool's gold: It's time we settled for draws
Phil Gould I've now changed my view on the issue of golden point. I was a supporter in the beginning. I believed it added excitement to the game-day entertainment.
While Titans linger in finals race, Tigers look like minds are elsewhere
Phil Gould For Gold Coast, this match represented the win they just had to have. Four losses in a row over the past month had them heading in the wrong direction on the ladder.

Viewers: in countries Watching now:
In this course, author and educator Chris Mattia demonstrates how to use the Apple iBooks Author application to create and publish your own ebook, without extensive design or publishing experience.
Follow along with Chris as he assembles, refines, and publishes a dynamic and engaging ebook for distribution on the iPad using the iBooks app. The course demonstrates the process of adding all of the components of a dynamic ebook, including engaging text, images, audio, video, 3D models, and dynamic web content. It also shows how to customize the iBooks Author interface and leverage built-in templates to produce a beautifully designed and polished ebook. The course wraps up with a review of the iBookstore publishing process.
Now that you've put all of this hard work in creating your iBook, it's time to publish it to the iBookstore and distribute it out to the world. This can be accomplished in three easy steps. The first step is to create an iTunes Connect account. The second is to download and install iBooks Publisher. And finally, we'll use iBooks Publisher to submit our book up to the iBookstore. To get started with these steps, all we need to do is come up here and click the Publish button in our toolbar.
A sheet will pull down, letting us know that it's time to publish our book to the iBookstore. We'll go ahead and click the Continue button and then on the next screen, we can see on the left-hand side our Pre-Publishing checklist. Let's go ahead and click the Continue button and then go ahead and click the button for Create New Account. Your browser should automatically open and take you to itunesconnect.apple.com. We'll go ahead and click the Get Started button. And on the next screen, we'll see that there are two different types of accounts that we can create, a Free Books Account or Paid Books Account.
Now, when you're publishing your books to the iBookstore, you can only publish your book via one of these two accounts, and each account can be tied to only one Apple ID. So, if you want to have some books that you offer for free and some books that you want to have customers pay for, you'll need to have two separate Apple IDs. You can create an Apple ID directly through the iTunes application on your Mac. In this case, let's go ahead and create a Free Books Account so that we can offer our book for free.
Click the button for Create a Free Books Account and on the next screen, you'll need to fill in your first and last name as it appears in your iTunes account. Enter in the Apple ID used with that account and then enter in your password. You'll then need to check the box to allow the iTunes Store to verify your account information. When you click the Continue button, there will be a couple of more screens that will ask for some personal information about your account. Go ahead and fill those out and when you're finished, a verification email should be sent to your account that you'll need to reply to in order to get your account fully set up.
Once you've done that, you can return back to iBooks Author and then click the Continue button. The next step allows you to download iTunes Producer. Simply click the blue button here and it will take you directly to itunesconnect.apple.com. Go ahead and sign in with your new iTunes Connect account that you just set up. And then click the Sign In button. Then, go ahead and scroll down on the page, until you find the iTunes Producer application and then click the Download button.
The application should download to your Mac. When the application finishes downloading, you can go ahead and go to your Downloads folder and then drag the disk image file out to your desktop. You can double-click the disk image file for iTunes Producer and then double-click iTunesProducer.pkg to begin the installation process. When the installer opens up, you can go ahead and click Continue. You can then click the Install button to accept the default installation location.
Type in your password and click Install Software. When the installation is completed, go ahead and click the Close button. Now that the software's been installed, go ahead and return back to iBooks Author and click the Continue button. Now, you're prompted to sign in to your iTunes Connect account here inside of iBooks Author. And then click the Sign In button. You then can say whether or not this book that you're creating is a new book or if it's one that you've previously published and you're just publishing an update to the book.
In this case, we're publishing a new book. So, we'll leave the first option selected and then click the Continue button. Next, you are asked to select a sample chapter for your book for the iBookstore. You can click the dropdown menu and all of the chapters that you've created in your book will appear here. I'll go ahead and leave mine set to the Introduction chapter and then click the Continue button. Now that the pre-flighting is done, you can click the Export button to export your book. When the export is complete, you're prompted to open up iTunes Producer.
Go ahead and click Open iTunes Producer and iTunes Producer is opened up for you. In the next movie, we'll step through the process of filling in all the information in iTunes Producer to complete the process.

I don't want all the Ł95 million. That would be greedy.
Half will do fine.
I would love to invest about Ł10 - Ł20 million into developing a couple of games. Would give this serious consideration if I had the windfall.
I'd obviously see my family safe, and I told a couple of my best mates I'd give them enough cash for deposits on houses (assuming 10%, so about Ł20k each?). My girlfriend and I would also set up some sort of animal sanctuary, so we'd need to buy a new place with lots of land.

Yep, I've said the same, and I think Branson was going to introduce something like this.

Nice, but not life changing - you'd still have to work, well most of us anyway.

I would also set up heaps of trust and sustain various charities on the interest alone (about Ł30,000 a month!). Which would mainly consist of animal and cancer charities.
This is all of course after i buy a big fuck of house, an Aston Martin Vantage and the biggest nicest TV in the world. Would buy my mum and sister the same. Start up various "who wants a 100 grand" threads on EG as it is the only site i go to.
|Well..none of us are going to win anyway. Apart from me that is.
Speak the truth hussy!
I'd buy Eurogamer, then probably run it into the ground by slowly going mad on the forums as the money drives me insane.
On a more serious note, I'd start a themepark - but if it wasn't enough money for that, I'd start a game developer and make the best game of all time, fully funded for 10 or so years of development and without any worries about if it'll make any money when it's released. It'd be a virtual city and the player would basically be god and do whatever he wanted and just watch the reaction (buildings getting rebuilt, people aging, girls getting undre.. better not give away too many ideas here just incase).

Depends what sort of themepark you wanted. Universal Islands of Adventure in Florida cost about Ł1billion to build from scratch.

|What's all this talk of tax? Unless there's a rule I'm not aware of, the only tax on gifts is inheritance tax on the receiver. And that's only if you pop your clogs within 7 years. Though, if you've won Ł95 million, you might have drunk yourself to death in that time.
So tonight's the night....what should I do with my Ł110 million?
I'll probably start with a nice pair of shoes, got my eye on a pair of Jordans near Brixton tube station...then i'll probably buy my hometown basketball team the Adelaide 36ers. Should leave me with about Ł108 million in change
any ideas?

nah, they'd only go and fuck it up again
/wonders how much Myleene Klass or that other hot bird from the M&S ads is going for these days

|I'd offer my neighbour a million pounds to shoot her boyfriend. I reckon she'd totally do it.
|Invest in gold bars and a bunker to keep them in before the inevitable Mad Max-like future meltdown begins.
I'd do the following:
Cover half of each country in tin foil
Make pebble dash, satellite dishes and pencils illegal
Ensure that a large 10m cube of ice is on display in Covent Garden
Buy some parks and cover with concrete, but leave a tree in the middle, a willow one.
I'd spend about a million quid building a tower, then pour the other 109 million (in pound coins) into it.

TIRUCHI: The Union Ministry of Information Technology and Communications has asked the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to fix the minimum tariff for mobile phone service providers.
Minister for Information Technology and Communications A. Raja said here on Saturday that it would benefit the customers to a great extent.
His Ministry was exploring the possibility of introducing number portability, 'Y-max' and '3G' technology to benefit customers. Number portability had already been introduced in metros such as Chennai, Mumbai, Kolkata and New Delhi.
Against the total available capacity of 100 MHz, about 35 MHz had been utilised by the mobile phone service providers and 250 million connections had been provided.
The Ministry was exploring the possibility of enhancing its capacity utilisation.
Pointing out that the Ministry would resist monopoly in communication technology, he said a plan to open the doors for more competitors was under active consideration.

LifeLabs, which is indirectly owned by the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System, will pay C$10.75 per share, a 49 percent premium to CML's closing price on Monday.
Including the assumption of C$255 million of debt, the transaction is worth C$1.22 billion, CML said in a statement.
The boards of CML, LifeLabs and OMERS have approved the deal. CML shareholders will vote on it at a special meeting on September 3. The parties expect the transaction to close later that month.

Marvel has confirmed that there will be numerous cameos from our favorite Avengers' stars in 2014′s Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Which of course shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.
It's believed that Black Widow, Nick Fury and Maria Hill will turn up but let's hope it doesn't stop there and the likes of Tony Stark and Bruce Banner also pop in to say hello. Either way, it should a hoot! But how will they compare to these infamous cameos from cinema's past? Which one's your favorite? And no, Stan Lee isn't involved at all.

Anna Sale is the host and managing editor of Death, Sex & Money, WNYC's interview show about the big questions and hard choices that are often left out of polite conversation.
Our daily look at the details that can change everything.
Florida Moves On Up: Remember watching the 2008 Iowa caucus results while you were still nursing a New Year's hangover? Well, it could happen again. State officials are expected to announce this week that Tuesday, January 31, will be the new date for the Republican primary in Florida.
That will likely prompt a dash among early primary states to move up their votes from February to January. So instead of an extra month of campaigning, it'll be Iowa-New Hampshire-South Carolina-Nevada just after the new year. That'll help candidates with the most money and momentum at this point, the Wall Street Journal points out — and put pressure on any stragglers to get in. You listening, Christie? (Wall Street Journal)
Colorado Fight Over Eligibility for Mailed Ballots Falls Along Party Lines: A Democratic county clerk in Colorado says he's been directed by the Secretary of State not to send ballots to military personnel who are registered, but didn't vote in the 2010 election or respond to postcards prompting them to reactivate their status. The clerk in Pueblo County wants to send ballots to both active and "inactive" registered voters, and he says the Secretary of State's interpretation of the law is flawed. Denver County, also led by a Democratic clerk, has already mailed ballots to both active and inactive voters, which prompted the Republican Secretary of State to sue the county, which is a Democratic stronghold. The Secretary of State's office says it's trying to preserve uniformity across the state, but two Democratic Congressman have asked the Department of Justice to review whether the lawsuit violates the Voting Rights Act. If the policy on inactive voters stands, voters who don't vote in this November's election could be considered "inactive" for the 2012 election, when Colorado is expected to be a pivotal swing state. (Colorado Independent)
Electoral College, Class of 2012: A poll out Wednesday showed a majority of registered voters in Pennsylvania favor giving all the state's electoral votes to the statewide winner, as opposed to a Republican-backed plan to divide most of them by congressional district. That's just one potential way the electoral math in 2012 could differ from 2008. The reapportionment of congressional districts is also changing the math. Because of population changes, traditionally Republican states have picked up six additional electoral votes. Still, the electoral math favors Obama, argued Gerald Selb in Tuesday's Wall Street Journal.
Democrats "happen to start with a bloc of reliably blue states that is larger, and much richer in electoral votes, than the reliably red bloc Republicans have on their side," he wrote. But in The New Republic, William Galston countered that Obama doesn't "have the luxury of building his campaign on a solid-blue foundation of 242 electoral votes in 2012." Narrowly targeting key states like Colorado just won't work, when the president is vulnerable in states that he counted on before, like Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. The real challenge, Galston writes, is for the president to build up broad, popular support. (The New Republic)
Given the choice, most Pennsylvania and U.S. voters want a national popular vote.
A survey of 800 Pennsylvania voters conducted on December 16-17, 2008 showed 78% overall support for a national popular vote for President.
Support was 87% among Democrats, 68% among Republicans, and 76% among independents.
By age, support was 77% among 18-29 year olds, 73% among 30-45 year olds, 81% among 46-65 year olds, and 78% for those older than 65.
By gender, support was 85% among women and 71% among men.
The National Popular Vote bill would guarantee the Presidency to the candidate who receives the most popular votes in all 50 states (and DC).
Under National Popular Vote, every vote, everywhere, would be politically relevant and equal in every presidential election. Every vote would be included in the national count. The candidate with the most popular votes in all 50 states would get the 270+ electoral votes from the enacting states. That majority of electoral votes guarantees the candidate with the most popular votes in all 50 states wins the presidency.
National Popular Vote would give a voice to the minority party voters in each state and district (in ME and NE). Now their votes are counted only for the candidate they did not vote for. Now they don't matter to their candidate.
With National Popular Vote, every vote, everywhere would be counted for and directly assist the candidate for whom it was cast.
In Gallup polls since 1944, only about 20% of the public has supported the current system of awarding all of a state's electoral votes to the presidential candidate who receives the most votes in each separate state (with about 70% opposed and about 10% undecided). A Washington Post, Kaiser Family Foundation, and Harvard University poll shows 72% support for direct nationwide election of the President. Support is strong among Republican voters, Democratic voters, and independent voters, as well as every demographic group surveyed in virtually every state surveyed in recent polls.
Most voters don't care whether their candidate wins or loses in their state or district… they care whether he/she wins the White House. Voters want to know, that even if they were on the losing side, their vote actually was directly and equally counted and mattered to their candidate. Most Americans consider the idea of the candidate with the most popular votes being declared a loser detestable.
The bill has passed 31 state legislative chambers, in 21 small, medium-small, medium, and large states, including one house in AR, CT, DE, DC, ME, MI, NV, NM, New York, NC, and OR, and both houses in CA, CO, HI, IL, NJ, MD, MA, RI, VT, and WA. The bill has been enacted by DC (3), HI (4), IL (19), NJ (14), MD (11), MA (10), CA (55), VT (3), and WA (13). These 9 jurisdictions possess 132 electoral votes — 49% of the 270 necessary to bring the law into effect.

The Midlothian region
Edinburgh is Scotland's historic capital city and a must-see for any visitor.
Aswell as visiting the main Edinburgh attractions such as the Castle, Princes Street, Royal Mile, etc, the apartment is located very close to the Water of Leith, a river that runs through the west of Edinburgh.
From the apartment you can access the Water of Leith walkway within a few minutes and have very pleasant walks in either direction.
My favourite is to walk north, stopping off at the Dean Gallery, then onto Murrayfield stadium, Scotland's home of rugby.

"Fantastic location"
Wonderfully clean and stylish accommodation. Great location -short walk to Princes Street for fireworks.
This would not be suitable for someone with mobility problems as there are 41(ish) steps between kitchen and top floor.
We found the off road parking helpful.Mark was both effiecient and very pleasant to deal with- do ring 30 minutes before just to check he can be there we didn't and had a bit of a wait but this was our fault!
We would definitely stay again.Thank you

This cool blue and white oriental scene is refreshing with its pagoda, temple and boatman on the river. This bowl matches the pitcher listed at PP-325 and the 2 similarly shaped but smaller bowls listed at PP-324, as well as the platter listed at PP-328. These all together would be a great serving set. The bowl is 8 1/8" across,3" high, with an unusual shape. Please email me with any questions you may have, and thank-you for shopping here at Something Wonderful.
