|Singles from Cupid & Psyche 85
Cupid & Psyche 85 is the second album by the British/American pop group Scritti Politti, released in the UK on Virgin Records on 10 June 1985.[4] The release continued frontman Green Gartside's movement toward mainstream pop music stylings.
It remains the band's most successful album, reaching No. 5 in the UK, and was certified Gold by the BPI for 100,000 copies sold. The album contained five singles, three of which were top 20 hits in the UK. The single "Perfect Way" became a surprise hit in the US, reaching No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in a 25-week run on the chart.
Scritti Politti's debut album Songs to Remember had been released in September 1982, but even before the album's release frontman Green had expressed in interviews his frustration at the limitations of being signed to an independent label like Rough Trade Records. After Songs to Remember he began to talk to major record labels, a move reluctantly supported by Rough Trade who wanted to keep him but realised they could not support him financially with the budget for the type of record that Green wanted to make.[5] At the same time Green had been distancing himself from the Marxist collective that Scritti Politti had originated from, and by the time of the album's release Scritti Politti was effectively his solo vehicle, the other original members having left during the album's recording or shortly afterwards.
During the recording of Songs to Remember Rough Trade had introduced Green to New Yorker David Gamson. Gamson was a keyboard player/programmer and an assistant engineer for the label who had used some studio downtime to record a demo version of the Archies' 1969 hit song "Sugar, Sugar". Green and Gamson hit it off and decided that they would work together in future as they had similar ideas about the type of music they wanted to make. In 1983 the duo travelled to Gamson's home city of New York and met up with another New Yorker, drummer Fred Maher, to put together a new version of Scritti Politti. Maher remembered, "I'll never forget the first time I saw Green. It was in the studio in New York and he came up to me and said 'hello, I'm Green, I'm terrible'. He'd been out the night before with Marc Almond and he looked a bit the worse for wear."[6] The trio recorded two songs, "Small Talk" and "L Is for Lover", both produced by Nile Rodgers, which they hoped to put out as a new Scritti Politti single. However, due to the legal battle involving Green's release from his contract with Rough Trade, the single was never released. "Small Talk" would eventually appear as a track on Cupid & Psyche 85, while "L Is for Lover" was recorded by US jazz singer Al Jarreau and released as the title track of his 1986 album.
Undaunted by this setback, Green remained in New York with his new musical partners, and with the help of his new manager Bob Last he finally resolved his problems with Rough Trade and signed major label deals with Virgin Records in the UK and with Warner Bros. Records in North America. He also used the time to set up meetings with musicians and producers that he wanted to work with, later recalling, "I seemed to get put in touch with anybody I wanted to meet and they were all very enthusiastic".[7]
Recording and composition[edit]
Following the signing of the new record deals, the band remained in New York and recorded three songs with producer Arif Mardin: "Wood Beez (Pray Like Aretha Franklin)", "Absolute" and "Hypnotize", all of which would later become singles from the new album. Green told NME, "He was the producer I most wanted to work with. We sent him some demos and he liked them very much and wanted to do it. It was his work with people like Chaka Khan over the past few years that made me want to work with Arif. Her version of 'We Can Work It Out' – incredible!"[7] Synthesizer player David Gamson brought the influence of black American radio acts such as Parliament-Funkadelic, while Gartside took inspiration from nascent hip hop music.[8] According to Dave Lewis of AllMusic, "no prior pop album had integrated the techniques of sampling and sequencing to such a great degree."[9]
The first single to be released from the album was "Wood Beez (Pray Like Aretha Franklin)" in February 1984, its subtitle alluding to the Aretha Franklin song "I Say a Little Prayer" which producer Arif Mardin had also worked on. Asked about the change in musical direction Green admitted, "if you'd played me 'Wood Beez' six years ago I think I'd have spat at it or something. But I like change."[10] He described the song as "very complicated, it's the whole question of what pop is; its relationship to language, power and politics. It's also a question of music's transgression and abuse of some of the rules of language. Aretha was singing what are arguably inane pop songs and had left her gospel roots. But she sang them with a fervour, a passion, though I hate to use that word because it's been hideously tarred in recent usage. To a committed materialist whose interest had come round to language again – perhaps because of a bankruptcy in Marxism to deal with ideology or any artistic community – hearing her was as near to a hymn or a prayer as I could get. Obviously I couldn't make that point in a three minute pop song."[11]
After releasing "Absolute" and "Hypnotize" as the follow-up singles, there was a gap of six months before "The Word Girl" was released as the fourth single, just ahead of the album. "The Word Girl" was the biggest hit single from the album in the UK and harked back to Scritti Politti's 1981 single "The 'Sweetest Girl'" in its reggae-based rhythm and its attempt to deconstruct the use of the word 'girl' in everyday language and in pop songs. Green told Sounds, "I was taking stock of all the lyrics of the songs for the new album and, lo and behold, in every song there was – this girl, or that girl. It seemed a good idea to show awareness of the device being used, to take it out of neutral and show it didn't connote or denote certain things. It was important to admit a consciousness of the materiality of referring to 'girls' in songs."[12] The single's B-side "Flesh and Blood" (which also appeared as one of the four bonus tracks on the cassette and CD versions of Cupid & Psyche 85) was the same musical backing of "The Word Girl" but with a new lyric written and sung by militant south London reggae MC Ranking Ann (real name Ann Swinton). Green explained that the idea was to present the alternative female view of the male construct of 'girl': "Having heard Ann's two albums, I thought she'd like the sentiments of the song rather than approve of the rhythmics. I knew she was stroppy, but it's positive. She saw she'd be giving her counsel to a completely different audience – teenagers. Which I think is great. It complements what we've done on the other side."[12] The single's sleeve reinforced the point being made in the lyrics: fragments of the label of Aretha Franklin's "Chain of Fools" single and a section of Écrits by French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan with the word "chain" prominent in both, superimposed on a picture of Shirley MacLaine from the film My Geisha dressed as a bride and wearing an expression of resignation on her face.
Although Scritti Politti had embraced the musical mainstream, Green's lyrics were often still preoccupied with the contradiction of becoming more distant from the reality of a person the more one became in love with the idealised version of that person, summed up on the album track "A Little Knowledge" by the line "Now I know to love you is not to know you".[13] This contradiction was reflected in the album's title, referring to the myth of the two ancient Greek gods who were destined to never be able to truly love each other. Green explained in interviews that "there is a fable, the myth of Cupid and Psyche, and the deal was that they would stay in love as long as they never tried too hard to find out too much about each other – they should just enjoy each other's company and not make demands. But that's what they made the mistake of doing, so Cupid fled, for some reason, and Psyche was sent around the world for eternity to find him. Although, at the very end of the legend, they do get reconciled... But in our society, Cupid has now come to stand for 'romance' and Psyche for 'hidden lurking depths', so of course it would've been preposterous to call the album Cupid and Psyche. But putting '85 after it makes it... perfectly cool. It makes it awfully sensible."[12]

Reviews for Cupid & Psyche 85 were generally positive. In a reference to the lyrics of "The Sweetest Girl" Melody Maker said, "It may not be the sweetest sound in all the world... but it's close. In pursuit of the silkier sensations to be cut from the sow's ear of pop, Scritti's Green has finally let the slide rule slip and succumbed to sensuality. His guerrilla days as the post-Marxist irritant of his peculiarly capitalist trade [...] aren't completely lost, of course. He's still aware of the irony of his role, and nagging snatches of guilt and cries of conscience continually pepper Cupid, subverting its aims." There was some criticism that the album contained three tracks that had been released as singles the previous year, but overall felt that "as a free-standing product, this is pop as it should be: smart, sweet but not sickly, rich and seductive, exotic, teasing, tempting and, judging by its persistent insinuation onto my Walkman, a durable, desirable thrill".[1] Awarding the album "4¾ stars out of 5", Sounds wrote, "If you only indulge yourself in one smooth, non-alternative, chainstore pop album this year, make it this".[17] However, NME dismissed Green's wordplay as insincere: "In his pop music, he plays with the language of the medium, both verbal and musical, in a way which implicitly criticises the way the language was used originally... Unfortunately, when this kind of post-modernist dissection is applied to affairs of the heart it can't help but come across hollow and artificial, because it's getting further removed from the business of actually moving, of authentic emotional experience." The review concluded, "Despite the use of possibly unusual textural elements like glockenspiel and steel pan sounds, they're not put together in a way that shoots even a sideways glance away from the dull, drab, sickly pop of the past few years".[14]
In the US Spin stated that "no disco was ever this sublime" and that Green's mixture of pop music and intellectualism "benefits us by teaching us the vocabulary of emotion. Green's gilded, fabricated palace of sentiment makes you want to know more about these matters even as his clever-dick wordplay, woozy vocals and slick manipulation of modern dance music's subtlest syncopations lead you onto some empty dance floor of the soul."[18] Rolling Stone was cooler towards the record, acknowledging that Scritti Politti's new direction worked well on "Wood Beez" and "Absolute", but that "the rest of Cupid & Psyche 85 isn't deviant enough. Green has absorbed the lessons of dance masters like Arif Mardin so well that he often imitates the very formulas he seeks to undermine... Stylishly wrought, at times delightfully eccentric, Cupid & Psyche 85 is ultimately too true to its form to be genuinely subversive."[16]
On the episode of his radio show Elton John's Rocket Hour, broadcast on Apple Music's Beats 1 online radio station on 24 October 2015, Elton John said that he considered this album to be the best produced electronic album of the 1980s, and that he purchases a copy whenever he sees it in order to share them with other people.[citation needed]

Western European cities were left trailing after the pure profit made on an average hotel room in the Russian capital rose to a dizzying 5,225 roubles (£101) in the first six months of 2007.
Moscow has transformed itself over the last 15 years from a drab Soviet Gotham to a glittering metropolis with huge skyscrapers, casinos and luxury apartment blocks. Shopping malls such as the Barvikha Luxury Village on the western outskirts of Moscow are dotted with elitny shops and boutiques.
In a sign of the times, Mikhail Gorbachev, the former Soviet president who tried to prop up Communism with his Perestroika reforms, announced last month that he would be starring in a new advertising campaign for Louis Vuitton.
Demand for luxury hotel rooms has rocketed while supply has slumped, largely due to the destruction of some old hotels such as the Rossiya, a 3,200-room riverside behemoth. The average price for a room in a five-star hotel has doubled to £360 in the last year. The average room rate went up by a third.
In its survey, TRI Hospitality Consulting found that London and Paris were well behind Moscow with £75 and £58 profit made on each room respectively. Berlin hotels brought in only a third of the Russian capital's profit, at £35.
Analysts said the profit margin reflected a squeeze on supply, high demand and the grotesque disparity between rich and poor. Russia has 53 billionaires while the average monthly salary is 13,800 roubles.
The survey found that hotels in Moscow spent about 20% of total revenue on salaries, compared with 38% in Paris.
Vitaly Kozlov, chief executive of the Russian Federation of Restaurateurs and Hoteliers, said: "It's true that by world standards hotel staff in our country have very low wages."

Also, note that some of the links take you to players who have been invited to rookie mini-camp this weekend on a tryout basis.
Here's a quick look with links if you're interested in all the gory details:

Dating in college is..... well sucky. I can honestly say most relationships in college are short lived due the the fact that nobody wants to commit. In college its all about the hookup, its easy and convenient. 1) People cant commit. Its hard to go out and be faithful to your significant other when your out with all your single friends at the bar and are being approached by people left and right. College students are all about FWB or no strings attached until one person starts gaining
10 Things No One Tells You About College
Things I wish someone told me before going away to college 1) Fuck Boys. They are literally everywhere. 2) Your friends from home/highschool will start their own life so don't expect to keep the same group of friends 3) Living with roomates! Specifically 4 other girls in my circumstance isn't always a good time. Especially when you wake up, walk down the hall to find random guys sleeping on your couch...... yea that happens 4) Put Yourself out there! In order to make friends in college
You really should...TRAVEL!
I love saving up money to go shopping and i'm sure i'm not the only one, but lately iv been thinking and Its totally more worth it to save up and travel! It's the gift that money cant buy because lets face it, that new bag you bought is gonna be thrown in the back of your closet in the next few months. Traveling leaves you with memories that will last a lifetime! This year I decided that instead of gifts for Christmas, me and my family would take a family trip up to CANADA! Im Canadian by blood,

College - Poem by Erin Hanson
Having those tremendous nightmares
when theres chills throught the
cold blooded body.
as your not here to warm me up.
Im stricken stiff and im missing you
you can never be here.
Seeing you only everyother day or week.
My heart aches when your not here.
Graduation in in the dark blue cap and gown.
the ignition began as im dricing
6 hours away.
I look beside me as an empty seat awakens.
I cant keep going as every minute ticks by
all I can think about is you.
The car stops
as trears begin hitting the wheel.
The bright light is ablinding
how it happend.
why did this happen to me I dont understand
I should have followed you and given up my dream.
because now all i do is cry,
for you.

Sale of prime Taipei parcel ends in failure
The China Post news staff
February 5, 2013, 12:22 pm TWN
TAIPEI, Taiwan -- The sale of a block of land in the prime Xinyi District of Taipei City ended in failure yesterday as no one submitted bids.
Real estate analysts attribute the absence of bidders to the fact the parcel, designated as "D1," is already more than 50 percent owned by the Fubon Group, which also has the first-priority right to purchase the land.
What that means, according to experts, is even if a bidder wins at auction, Fubon Group retains the right to make a postauction offer to purchase the plot.
The block is located at the intersection of Xinyi Road Section Five and Zhuangjing Road, diagonally across from the Taipei 101 building.
The parcel measures 2,545 pings in total (each ping is 3.3 square meters). Yesterday's sale included four sections of the land, with a total area of 475 pings. The total base price was NT$2.76 billion, or a unit price of NT$5.81 million a ping.
The lot is divided into 16 sections, which were formerly owned by over 30 owners. Over the past few years the Fubon Group had integrated the various sections, leaving only 10 people still owning land.
According to analysts, Fubon already owns over 50 percent of the lot. Acquiring the additional four parcels that were on sale yesterday would boost Fubon's holding to over 60 percent.
With no one submitting bids yesterday, it is expected that Fubon may offer a price during the third or fourth auction, experts said.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (Indiana's NewsCenter) – Fort Wayne Community Schools board met Monday evening in a work session.
We asked Dr. Robinson for an update on the contract negotiations with the teachers union.
Superintendent Dr. Wendy Robinson says that the teachers union has declared an impasse in the negotiations. She believes the teachers are concerned with job security, and benefits.
A mediator will be appointed soon to help with the negotiations.
Dr. Robinson's goal is to get back to the table and get a deal done before the contract expires on June 30th.
The teachers union wants to extend the current contract for two years while the state works out the details on the changing education policies. Dr. Robinson says that there are aspects in the current contact that can not be extended because of funding changes.

After crossing the river we decided to walk up to the castle. We figured most people were still in church (it was about 10:30), and Burghausen was pretty much deserted.

Blue Dragon, it sounds to me that they just want to be friendly and helpful. I do hope you find peace in your garden and don't get too stressy abouti it. You could make some good friends, I'm sure, if you give them half a chance it really doesn't matter how long it takes you to complete your border. What matters is that you enjoy the making of it. Good luck in your new home and may you find happiness and friendship there
I was entranced by this programme last night on BBC 4. It was a recording of bird song at dawn at various locations without any background music or human voice to spoil the atmosphere. The name of each bird was posted . I think it is part of a slow down series of programmes and I loved it.
I've just made some rhubarb and ginger jam. Delicious!
I'm just glad to read of Happy News! It makes a change from the terrible things in the paper each day.
Thank you Runnybesk for your reply. I will now feel optimistic about them and pot them on with enthusiasm!
The only sure way of protecting your seedlings is a bit expensive I'm sorry to say. I purchased some protective netting tunnels and find them useful for protecting things from pigeons as well as cats. Once purchased you can re-use them for ever, so they are worth it in the end.
I have just bought some Cossack tomato plants from a local grower and have never grown that variety before. I wondered if anyone on the forum has any experience of this type?
I leave a few Herb Robert as they are so pretty. The draw back is that they seed around like mad and I have to weed out most of them. I would always leave the Forget-me-Nots as I love them and my mum gave me mine many years ago.
I live in a bungalow that is built on what was previously a farmhouse. So far we have found a horseshoe, an old clay pipe, a farm gate hinge and a blue Victorian brick.this makes me wonder about the lives of the people who lived and worked on this land. What have you unearthed on your patch of ground?
I think you all have solved the mystery for me ! It makes sense to me that my plant is a runner from the plant in the adjoining garden which backs onto mine.Judith's plant looks exactly like mine. I will be kind to it now and move it to a better situation. Thanks all!

Whether it's for a simple backsplash or an entire wall, a beautiful bathroom tile design can transform a plain space into a standout sanctuary. Discover ways to use bathroom floor tile, tile patterns, and bathroom wall tile that you can try in your home. Get design ideas for a small baths or master bath.
Clean lines bring a soothing luxury-hotel vibe to a formerly tired and cramped bath. The rich, warm tones of the double-sided vanity and the ceramic tile on the floor create striking contrast with the white freestanding tub and frosty blue glass tiles on the walls in this bathroom. A sculptural freestanding tub echoes the clean lines of its surroundings and was strategically located under a window that overlooks a wooded area.
Back-to-back vanities made of eucalyptus wood give the homeowners their own separate spaces. To maintain an airy ambience amid the dark wood, the vanity bases were kept open, with a lower storage shelf and exposed plumbing. Frosty blue glass wall tile helps balance the dark tones of the vanity and a ceramic tile floor that's designed to resemble hardwood. The homeowners chose to wrap the entire room in the same tile treatment to create a seamless look.
White-painted maple carts (one on each side of the vanity wall) balance the dark tones of the stately vanity. The carts' glass tops and high-gloss lacquer finish make them easy to maintain. The carts corral cosmetics and toiletries, and their portability makes it easy to slide them over to the bathtub if the homeowners need easy access to contents while soaking.
The shower's clear glass surround further reflects the bathroom's seamless simplicity. Working in conjunction with the generous-size windows nearby, the steam shower's glass enclosure connects the bath with the outdoors. The glass allows natural light from the windows to shine through while providing a smooth transition to the tub.
A handy niche in the shower offers convenient storage and a seamless, upscale look. This space carves out a place to keep soap and shampoo within easy reach.
Fixtures are an easy way to enhance appeal in a bathroom. With a range of spray options, this showerhead provides an invigorating, spa-like experience. The continuation of the tiled backdrop creates a smooth transition between the shower and the rest of the room.
Clean better, clean faster. Get tips for keeping your tile looking sparkly and new.
In this gorgeous bath, strategically selected surfaces create a light and bright atmosphere. An oversize mirror on one wall of the bathroom helps create the illusion of a larger space while. Glass tile, applied to the bathroom wall and the tub surround, also reflect light and mimic the greenery and trees in the garden just outside the bathroom.
Though most people would expect to see a medicine cabinet rather than a window above a bathroom sink, the homeowners opted to keep the window to preserve the light and the view. When they need a mirror, they simply open the door to the medicine cabinet to the right of the sink. An expansive countertop offers maximum storage and primping space.
Green glass tiles capture the essence of the contemporary bath's natural aesthetic. The variegated tile pattern contributes a custom look, while the soft sage green acts as a tranquil buffer to the crisp grout lines and tile shape.
Geometric shapes -- a square tub, rectangular tile and shelf niche, a round showerhead and controls -- are characteristic of contemporary design. A glass door helps this tub-shower combo feel open and inviting, while the tiled surround protects the walls.
Simple lines and a subtle color scheme visually enlarge the bathroom. Here, a sleek wall-mount faucet mingles with the modern simplicity of green rectangular tile. Located under an expansive window, the geometric basin adds a luxurious touch while retaining a spacious, uncluttered look.
Keep your tile sparkling with these easy cleaning tips.
A freestanding tub, modern fixtures, gorgeous tile, and a toilet room transformed this dormer-size bathroom into a spa-like retreat. Floor-to-ceiling tile cloaks the walls for a striking focal point. The different hues of blue tile work together to complement the natural feel of the bath. Clean, modern lines add warmth and a little glamour.
Rather than a traditional medicine chest, the homeowners opted for a mirror framed in the same dark-stained oak used for the vanity and storage shelf. The mirror adds an upright sense of style that projects a clean, organized look. Repeated elements, such as the slab style of the mirror, sink, and vanity, make the bath feel stylish and cohesive.
Many materials play off each another for a sleek and sophisticated vanity. The modern vessel sink echoes the style of the tub and contrasts with the dark vanity. A wall-mount faucet frees counter space and adds a finishing touch to the vanity area. Behind the sink, a resin panel allows light to brighten the room, giving the vanity a spa-like feel.
As the room's focal point, the soaking tub looks like a piece of modern art at the center of the room. A new energy-efficient window lets in lots of light. Red oak flooring stained a rich, dark brown enhances the sense of warmth and connects the new room to the 1920s style of the home and its neighborhood.
Tile grout can be a trap for grime. Learn how to clean grout with a few easy tricks.

Skip to comments.Q-poll shows Linda McMahon up by 3 in CT
Posted on 08/28/2012 7:16:54 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
Last week, Ramussen showed Republican nominee Linda McMahon with a 3-point edge over her Democratic opponent in the US Senate race in Connecticut, Rep. Chris Murphy, 49/46. Six days later, Quinnipiac confirms that McMahon has a slight edge over Murphy — and in fact finds the exact same result:
Connecticut likely voters put Republican former wrestling executive Linda McMahon on the right side of a 49-46 percent too-close-to-call U.S. Senate race against Democratic U.S. Rep. Christopher Murphy, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. …
"The poll is good news for Linda McMahon. In our first likely voter poll in Connecticut, McMahon has a 3 point advantage in a too-close-to-call-race. Her edge is due to her double- digit lead among independent voters and being close among women, a group she struggled with in her 2010 run," said Quinnipiac University Poll Director Douglas Schwartz, PhD.
McMahon's draw comes from a surprisingly wide, if not deep, reach in the demos. She has a twelve-point lead among men, while Murphy only gets a within-the-MoE edge of four points among women. Murphy wins younger voters, but only by eight points, while McMahon wins the middle-age vote by twelve; the two split seniors evenly. McMahon also does better on lower and higher income brackets.
That may not be the only surprise cooking in the Nutmeg State. Barack Obama has a lead outside of the MoE, but not that far outside of it::
President Barack Obama holds a narrow 52 – 45 percent lead over Gov. Mitt Romney, his Republican challenger, among Connecticut likely voters. Twelve percent of Obama voters and 12 percent of Romney backers say they might change their mind.
The gender gap is yawning with women backing Obama 59 – 38 percent while men back Romney 53 – 45 percent. Independent voters are divided with 49 percent for Romney and 47 percent for Obama. Obama leads among all income groups except for a 49 – 49 percent split among voters making more than $100,000 per year. Voters in all age groups back the president.
Just as a reminder, Obama won Connecticut in 2008 by 23 points, 61/38. John Kerry won the state in 2004 by ten points, 54/44, over George W. Bush in a losing effort overall. Al Gore won Connecticut by 17 in 2000, again while losing overall to Bush.
A seven-point lead for an incumbent Democratic President in this state is a show of weakness. Combine that with a slight Republican lead in a US Senate race and it begins to look like Connecticut may be shifting out of the Safely Democratic column and edging toward swing-state status.
One can dream can't he?
Getting interesting!
I hope this holds true.
Must have been her atomic punch or her coco-butt!
"The gender gap is yawning with women backing Obama 59 38 percent"
OK Connecticut ladies (you 59%)... what is it...
The smile?
The offer by Michelle that Baraq can "be your husband, too?"
His offer of taxpayer-paid abortion?
Your aspirations of being "Julia?"
And Murphy is nobody.
And Romney has no shot.
Never-had-a-real-job Murphy needs to finally get kicked off the public payroll! Unfortunately the voters' choice for Murphy's vacated seat in CT's 5th is either a Liberal Democrat or a Liberal Republican (Roraback). :(
This is good news, but, I'm wondering why the people of CT are leaning toward her this time when they rejected her last time when she ran against a doofus brain who lied about serving in Viet Nam? Just sayin'
But, hey, I hope like everything that she wins.
Great news. This is why you will never hear me criticize a "RINO" in a dark blue state like Maine, Massachusetts or Connecticut. RINO is as good as it gets in those states. McMahon is no true conservative, but she'll be 100% better than the flaming Communist the Dems put up. Same with Massachusetts. Brown is 100% better than Warren. If we want a Senate majority, and some state Republican parties insist on running candidates like Akin, then we have to do it with McMahons and Browns.
Good observations. I think both McMahon and Romney/Ryan are pulling each other "up". CT voters are mostly white and upper class. They don't want Muslems running their lives.
Question: Does BO'S SS# give him the right to say he is from CT? I don't think they want him.

Apparently Blumenthal was seen as some kind of sainted savior.. a caretaker of the "little people" as AG.
RE: CT has a lot of business people and white people, two groups the Democrats have been dead set on alienating, and moderate Republican women (tolerate 'em or hate 'em) have a good track record in New England.
I live in NY, which is next door neighbor to CT. They sometimes joke that CT is the bedroom state of NY as many Wall Street types live and sleep in CT and commute to work in NYC ( a mere 30 minute train ride away via the Metro North ).
Because of the huge number of layoffs in Wall Street recently, the home prices in CT closest in NYC have FALLEN.
CT used to be the state with the highest per capita income in the nation. That number 1 status is now being challenged.
Must be accurate if Obama is leading in CT?
Brown & Obama lead in Mass.
Romney isn't behind by much in the polling IIRC. Rove has CT in the leaning for Obama, not solidly Obama.
Maybe they resent getting snookered the last time and are determined not to let it happen again.
As AG Blumenthal spent most of his time going after eeeeevil businesses for trig to "rip off" the popr, uneducated consumers and holding press confreres to tell every one how great he was.
As a CT resident McMahon certainly has a chance. Romney, not likely due to the vote fraud capital of Bridgeport and to a lesser extent New Haven.
However, this will make Obama spend more money in CT, were he should have had to spend little or nothing.
RE: Romney, not likely due to the vote fraud capital of Bridgeport and to a lesser extent New Haven.
I'm a little bit puzzled... if Romney will not win because of voter fraud in Bridgeport and New Haven, why would McMahon win and not herself be a victim of fraud?
I have not following this race since I dont really live anywhere near Connecticut but I will never forget her question in the 2010 Senate debate when she asked ther democrat how a job is created and the lifetime government captive leftist had no coherent answer to the question. That's a question everyone debating a dem should ask because most of them have no serious answer other than government government government.

Has anyone had a chance to compare these two boards? I'm looking for something to go fast with my 6.6 and 7.2 sails. (80 kg, 1.8m)
Too bad Starboard stuck with the junk box for the smaller Kode boards while all the other Freestyle Wave type boards use the Power Box.
What is the problem with the Power Box? Starboard needs to wake up, I will never buy another board with the junk US box- they are for surfboards.
