Heather Taweel/The Guardian
Thirty-six high school students from across P.E.I. debated how best to deliver health services, student loans and clean energy during a recent event in Charlottetown.
The 28th annual youth parliament took place at the Best Western hotel, held by the Rotary Clubs of Charlottetown.
Logan Rose, a Grade 10 student, said the process actually started back in October when all the students met in Charlottetown and were split up into government or opposition roles.
Once that was all decided, both parties voted for the leader who assigned portfolios to the rest of the members.
Then both sides brainstormed important issues they wanted to discuss at the legislature.
Those were narrowed down to 12 in order of importance.
Students debated implementing a 20 per cent junk food and beverage tax to go towards Island health services, as well as creating a government grant program to assist farmers transitioning to certified organic products.
They also discussed another grant to help retain skilled trade workers.
High schools participating this year were Bluefield, Kensington Intermediate Senior High School, Souris, Morell, Charlottetown Rural, Kinkora, Westisle, Montague, Three Oaks, Grace Christian and Colonel Gray.
Bryce Doiron is a Grade 11 student at École François Buote interning at The Guardian as part of the school's co-op program.

Olfactory intrigue paved my journey into the world of aromatics. Smell can be sexy, delicious, disgusting, personal, dangerous, intriguing, and profoundly primal. My awareness to the power of scent began in 1999 in India. Along with the odor of food, cars, animals, and people, came incense. Burning incense to honor gods, to celebrate, to mourn, to start the day, and to pray was influential for me. I began a friendship with an incense maker in Mysore, I sought out incense markets, and I came back home on a mission to design incense burners and containers.
I became interested in the history of incense- how it was used, its purpose, how it was crafted, and what materials were used. A portal into aromatic botanicals opened up. Learning about plants that offered scent and crafting simple versions of old incense formulas was exciting. My incense research lead to me to plant oils. Not only did some plants release odor when burning, but they also released oils and waxes through different methods of extraction. And so another door opened to essential oils. Enticing oils, with beautiful smells, spiritual and healing properties, laboriously made in cultures far away, was and is still amazing to me. I began to study the therapeutic and medicinal properties of oils, noticing how the varied scents were also working as tools for my mindfulness and health. For two and half years I dedicated myself to the education of essentials oils. What part of the plant they came from, which part of the world, how they were extracted, how they could be used, their chemical components, and so much more. I discovered that my research would be endless and always evolving. Working with essential oils led me to new scents with varied consistencies, and challenged me to find different manners of how to manipulate them. This play of experimental success along with lots of failures led me to the art of perfumery. My need to layer, to learn how the oils could work together (or not), to invent something new, personal, and compelling brought me to perfumery.
I formulate and produce my entire line of body and face care, perfumes, and incenses. All the product is carefully handcrafted and some hand formed. The body and face care is delivered recently-made to you. My laboratory is like my kitchen, and I pride myself in not using heavy preservatives, using fresh materials, carefully selected, and carefully stored. All my perfumes are aged like precious wine. Perfumes need to meld and marry to speak their full potential. The incense is laboriously hand shaped and always takes a few days to execute. I also take pride in teaching and developing scents for other labels. My team and I work from my studio located in Los Angeles. I like to think of it as an aromatic apothecary with attributes of the old world, a place to satiate olfactory wanderlust, and where sundries and therapeutics are meticulously crafted to offer to you. I hope you love using them.

Wii U
Those other consoles have missed out on some of the best games of this generation as well.
lol oh yea garbage, everything thats not on a nintendo system is garbage ....
after clocking 150 hours in skyrim i can assure you its ont garbage
played fallout 3 for a while too, its pretty neat
GTA is a mature game who is really entertaining.
Garbaging good games isnt really great. Maybe if you stop playing nintendo titles and play more other titles it could open your eyes.

Heck Fallout 3 is considered to be the best game of all time to many.
Superweird spelling of Chrono Trigger, but I'll take it.
Admit it, you only came back to Atlanta for the hat.
Nintendo is the Women's NBL of video gaming. To paraphrase a quote from an episode of Futurama I haven't seen in years, Nintendo has good fundamentals, but they don't know how to dunk the ball.

Since I don't have Sony or Microsoft systems, and my PC isn't used for gaming, I never played any of those. But it doesn't bother me, as I had my Nintendo games.
Let me clarify though, considering some of the other posts in this thread. I'm not bashing the games in your list. I'm sure they are lovely if so many people like them. But a lot of them wouldn't appeal to me personally, and even if they were on Nintendo systems I wouldn't get them.

t_wright1989 posted...but if not for nintendo the other consoles would have no one to imitate. nintendo always leads the pack in launching next gen consoles, then sony and microsoft come through and you get crap like the kinect and playstation move. now we have knock off imitators playstation wii and xbox wii60. nintendo is the pioneer the rest just follow and observe for a chance to scavenge off of their success
Actually, Nintendo did offer the Famicom Modem and Broadcast Satellaview, which were for their time the best online services available for consoles. And although they didn't pioneer having two analog sticks on one controller, the first game with the modern dual analog control scheme was Goldeneye 007, a game on the Nintendo 64 (although you needed 2 controllers per player).

lack of metal gear solid 4 saddens me
anyways I agree the Wii was lacking in terms of good games IMO
what I found enjoyable is Mario Galaxy 1, Zelda Twilight/Skyward ,Fire Emblem and Smash Bros.
DK country was fun also other than that the Wii didn't have anything that really interested me ( I liked playing sonic on it also but sonic games are on every console)
I really found Galaxy 2 overrated same way people dislike good games like GTA 4.
I never played the Xenoblade so I don't know the craze for that

Looking at your list of games, I feel sorry for all the consoles.
Watered down, poor performance, no mods, sometimes no patches or DLC, less accurate controls and inputs.
Thank you for pointing this out TC, the world needs to know how inferior they are to PC.
KroganBallEater posted...
nonexistinghero posted...Those other consoles have missed out on some of the best games of this generation as well.
Yes usually by those who haven't played many games, haven't played games for many years or only have ever owned one system. So what you mean to say is "considered by some with no objectivity, valid reasons or knowledge of gaming".
That's twice I've agreed with you TC. Glad we're on the same wave length.
If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh.

Holiday Cottages in Looe
The bustling town of Looe is divided by the ever-changing river that separates quieter West Looe from the absorbing waterfront of East Looe, with its diversity of shops, restaurants and pubs, Banjo pier and sandy beach. The pace and routine of life follows the ebb and flow of the tide and the movement of boats returning with their catch of fresh fish. Local boatman can ferry visitors to and from either quay or alternatively one can enjoy a pleasant cruise along the beautiful and rugged coastline, keeping an eye out for the schools of dolphins that can often be spotted in the bay. A guided tour will draw you deeper into the labyrinth of ancient buildings, clustered together in the narrow streets and courtyards that make up the old town of East Looe. Visit the 16th century Old Guildhall museum with its interesting exhibits detailing the town's diverse history, or relax and just while away the hours on the wonderful sandy beach, separated from the river mouth by the Banjo Pier.

Scotland: Police investigation launched as trans woman barred from female toilets in shopping centre
Post your comment

Reader comments
I call for this guard to be forced to attend a diversity class.
I would suggest he is compelled to seek alternative employment.
Apart from anything else he has exposed his employers to an action for damages and prosecution under the equality act if the reporting is accurate.
I do agree that it might be a good idea for his employers to conduct diversity training for the remainder of their staff though. And perhaps that if they conduct themselves in the manner of this former employee their employment will cease.
The security guards actions are dreadful – but naming yourself "River Song" after a character in Doctor Who is just tacky.
Why? I wouldn't do it, but that's my choice. It's a nerdy gesture. I know one guy who named his new born daughter Arya. And how do you think all those weird biblical names became common in the US?
I think River Song is a beautiful name, it's like a mini poem
Isn't this the second or third time in the past year or so that a trans woman has been stopped from or harrassed for using female toilets in Scottish shopping centres? Sometimes I'm ashamed of my country and the bigoted idiots in it.
Yes me too.
And so many others that have not been publicised.
The security guard certainly did the right thing. He told the young man a truth that others were not kind enough to tell him ie that he is (and always will be) a male.
Reality is not hateful, but lies are.
Whilst it is impossible to change sex, it also true to say that "Gender reassignment surgery" is a contradiction: Gender is a state of mind. We do not need to change our bodies to change our mind. There is no such thing as "Gender reassignment surgery", and no such thing as a "Sex change".
Well thank you for coming on here and exposing your flagrant ignorance laced with a dash of bigotry and animus.
As to doing the right thing, if the reports are true, the security guard will be lucky if he is only sacked as it would appear he committed a number of criminal offences.
Incidentally it is also an offence in Scotland to verbally assault some-one thereby causing alarm or distress add to that the other offences it amounts to a hate crime.
Still trolling stories about trans women, how sad. Sorry about your empty life.
Ahh, look. Closedmind is back
Just a note to the editor – this isn't a photo of the St. James Centre. Your photograph shows the Thistle Hotel.
The St. James Centre sign below is above the exit to the carpark.

it is indeed hideous.
I wonder if this is related?
Maybe someone knows.

A strategic review of electricity systems models
Electricity systems models are software tools used to manage electricity demand and the electricity systems, to trade electricity and for generation expansion planning purposes. Various portfolios and scenarios are modelled in order to compare the effects of decision making in policy and on business development plans in electricity systems so as to best advise governments and industry on the least cost economic and environmental approach to electricity supply, while maintaining a secure supply of sufficient quality electricity. The modelling techniques developed to study vertically integrated state monopolies are now applied in liberalised markets where the issues and constraints are more complex. This paper reviews the changing role of electricity systems modelling in a strategic manner, focussing on the modelling response to key developments, the move away from monopoly towards liberalised market regimes and the increasing complexity brought about by policy targets for renewable energy and emissions. The paper provides an overview of electricity systems modelling techniques, discusses a number of key proprietary electricity systems models used in the USA and Europe and provides an information resource to the electricity analyst not currently readily available in the literature on the choice of model to investigate different aspects of the electricity system.

Susan Lee, psychiatrist, and Anne Rousselot, therapist, are the worst providers in the world. I was being harassed by my housing agency. At the same time, my family abused me and then abandoned me. Dr. Lee and Anne made sure to give me bad care so that I had to be hospitalized. Dr Lee told me she will give me any medication I want for my bipolar. She never coordinated with Anne. That clearly didn't work, combined with the lack of support. Callen Lorde's license to operate should be taken away.
Susan Lee is by far the best psychologist i've had, and I have been going to different psychologists for over 20 years. She has been my doctor for the last 2 years and I believe she is at the top of her profession. Dr. Lee is serious and conservative about medication. She makes the time to listen and really is listening to what you say. I truly feel she is on my side.
I was hopeful for a good outcome when I scheduled my appointment with a psychiatrist at Callen Lorde; however the psychiatrist I ended up with, Dr. Susan Lee, wasn't interested in care, compassion or even finding a correct diagnosis and/or medication plan. She was late getting to work because I saw her rush into the office ten minutes after my scheduled appointment time, and then spent barely 15 minutes with me. And this was our first appointment! I was truly disappointed in her care and feel bad for anyone else who is suffering from a mental illness that ends up in her office.

At this point, we don't really know what caused the problems that marred election night 2015 in Memphis, but what we do know is that the Election Commission isn't very good at doing elections.
In nearly every election since 2012 there has been some problem. And while some, but not most, of those problems might have been excusable, the response from the Administrator of Elections, Richard Holden, has been nothing short of disdain and 'get off my lawn' isms.
An audit in 2012 conducted by the State of Tennessee into the wrong ballots fiasco faulted Holden's leadership.
The Memphis City Council and Shelby County Commission gave the Election Commission a vote of no confidence after problems.
Heck, even Republican Commissioner Wyatt Bunker said enough is enough.
But this isn't about politics, its about competence. That's what it was about in the 2012 election when thousands of people got the wrong ballot.
And here we are again, this election, with people getting wrong ballots!
Its not that the job is easy, because it isn't. But now 5 years into his tenure, Mr. Holden has had plenty of time to get the problems fixed, and not only have they not been fixed, there seems to be no timeline or urgency to fix them.Election Commissioners have tried to vote him out, failing on a party line vote.
Maybe this time it will be different, maybe it won't.
But if the Commissioners themselves won't take the mantle that's been given them by members of the Shelby County Delegation to the Tennessee General Assembly, then one has no other option but to assume they're just as much a part of the problem as Holden.
We'll see what they do at the next meeting later this month (it wasn't posted as of the writing of this post).
I'm coming up on my eight year anniversary at this blog, 10th of blogging overall if you count previous platforms now defunct, and the bad old days of literally coding every single thing in html (that really sucked). I really enjoy doing this, even though the pay is bad (none) and the benefits are even worse (none).
But one of the things that keeps me going are the discussions that pop up from time to time as a result of something I've written. There really is no greater compliment…whether the reaction is good or bad. Someone took the time to read what I wrote, and then, even more time to respond.
I've had the pleasure of meeting all kinds of awesome people, on both sides of the aisle. That's what I treasure most about blogging…the relationships that get built over time.
So it was with a great deal of pleasure that I received an open letter from Shelby County Election Commissioner Dee Nollner regarding this post on the close District 10 race (and more).
I've included the full text of the letter below my comments on the issues raised for you to peruse. I figure, if its good enough for all the Democratic email lists out there, its good enough to be searchable so it can be easily found in the future.
If you want to read it first, click here to skip to the bottom of the post. There's a link down there to get you right back here.
Ms. Nollner:
Thank you for your email. I hope you'll allow me the opportunity to respond to some of your points.
The issue at hand is whether or not I have my facts straight on a series of questions. I freely admit that as a human, I am prone to error. But I'm not sure the errors pointed out are the best ones to make your case.
Far be it for me to correct you…but I would like to respond to some of the statements you made.
For instance, I was aware that the Election Commission retains two attorneys (a Republican and a Democrat) for advice on election issues. However, there's no question that Mr. Ryder holds more sway with the Commissioners. Mr. Ryder is very involved in election issues in his role as General Counsel for the RNC, not to mention his prior role as Special Redistricting Counsel to the GOP led TN General Assembly…a process that was held largely in secret.
It is for his body of work both with the Election Commission, and in other places, not his partisan bent or his ability as an attorney to hatch a legal opinion that I question some of his advice the Commission. It is curious that Mr. Ryders recommendations consistently meet the mere letter of the law rather than seek to ease the unease that surrounds the Election Commission…unease which you apparently dispute in your 5th point. I'll get to that later.
Perhaps Mr. Ryder only believes it is his place to advise on legal matters. But I know Mr. Ryder to be an intelligent man, who is capable of expressing many perspectives on a single issue. Certainly additional insight could be offered if asked for.
Statements 2 & 3 – I agree that no challenge can be made until the election is certified. I never said one way or the other. I merely reported what transpired at a meeting…just like Jackson Baker, who was sitting right next to me.
Its not until later that I get into my opinion on the matter, which in no place did I say there could be a challenge before certification. I merely said the Election Commission should either 1) Publish a schedule of when documents would be available, or 2) Just make them available noting they are preliminary…just like the results in the Commercial Appeal.
Statement 4 – Having spent literally hundreds of hours dissecting the horribly organized SOVC reports for every election since 2006 (which, unquestionably is the worst) for analysis, I am quite aware that absentee ballots and election day ballots aren't mixed. I never said they were. In fact, it would mess up most of what I wish to analyze if they were mixed. I only said that it is possible some absentee ballots received on election day had not been counted due to human error.
Statement 5 – This one is my favorite. If you're unaware, or have perhaps forgotten about the past problems at the Election Commission, let me give you a quick refresher.
3000 voters received the wrong ballot in 2012
In that same election, two contests were overturned by a judge, here, and here.
Which led the newspaper of record to as why the Election Commission wasn't better prepared, which seems like a fair question.
All of this led to the suspension of Elections Administrator Richard Holden, which some believe was too light a punishment.
This was followed by another critical audit of the Election Commission by the Shelby County Government, and eventually a no confidence vote led by a Republican County Commissioner…who you scolded for attacking another Republican…and questioned the basis (which is chronicled above) for the No Confidence vote. The City Council did it too.
In short, you would have to live on a completely different world to believe that there is no chronicle of failures at the Election Commission. Furthermore, the absence of problems in subsequent elections is not "praise worthy", as I note in the post, because doing exactly what you're supposed to do is what you're supposed to do. Doing more than you're supposed to do is praise-worthy, but that isn't happening.
In fact, the Election Commission isn't even doing the bare minimum. Your online meeting notices are behind, as are the available agendas, its interesting to note there is no posted agenda for tonight's meeting. And the meeting audio link only lists audio from October of 2013.
Statement 7 – I have never once faulted poll workers for anything. I have no idea why you brought this up or them into it. I respect their service, and hope to one day be able to serve in that capacity as well.
I'm not sure what the point of this is, other than to use these innocents as human shields to deflect criticism…which is truly bad form.
Ms. Nollner, I'm happy to help distribute "facts" as you ask. I have, over the course of my time writing here in Memphis, always done so to the best of my ability. The "facts" you assert that I have misstated are not misstatements, except to your perspective. We can agree to disagree, but I will not back down on criticism when criticism is due.
Process is very important to me. Process is the means by which the public can observe what the various organs of government are doing. Violations, real or perceived of process will be met with extreme prejudice…regardless of who commits it.
Ask the State and Local Democratic parties if I have ever withheld criticism for their lack of transparent process. Ask my friends who serve in elective or appointed positions if I have ever held fire on the boards they serve on. I am very consistent on this point.
So when the information available is unnecessarily vague, difficult to navigate, or filled with civic sins of omission, I will speak up. If you don't appreciate that, so be it. But I will not be deterred.
If you are truly interested in the "facts" getting out to the public, your organization, the Shelby County Election Commission will have to choose to do more than the bare minimum.
As it stands, the average citizen has no chance of knowing what in the world is going on at the Election Commission unless they have also looked at the TN Secretary of State's election page or dared to delve into the TCA, which is more than unwieldy.
The information the Election Commission puts on its website is consistently out of date, and difficult to navigate.
This wasn't always the case.
Once upon a time I even praised the Commission for updating its website. Unfortunately, those strides have not been maintained.
I've written more than one blueprint to correct some of the problems of information dissemination at the Election Commission. I even served on an election reform board with Commissioners Stamson and Lester…that included much of this blueprint in its final recommendations.
This is something I care deeply about…not a political football to be flung around when its convenient.
So let's make a deal rather than fling invective at each other in a truly pointless fashion.
I know the Commission is short on staff, so let me take this opportunity to offer my services to make the Election Commission website more navigable, on a volunteer basis (20 hours to start).
I have 20 years of experience with web development, publishing platforms, and audio and video editing/streaming. I feel confident that I can come up with a plan and present it to the Commission for your approval, to make the site more navigable under the current content management structure and a strategy to help keep content up to date.
It seems clear that the Commission doesn't have the resources to do this, so let me help. Maybe I'll get some additional perspective on the challenges facing the Commission…which could work to the organization's benefit.
If you really want me to be involved in distributing "facts", let me help the Election Commission do that which you apparently are unable to do yourself.
I would be happy, and honored to serve.
Steve Ross
P.S. If you would like to contact me about this offer, please go here and fill out the form. That goes straight to my email. I don't publish my email address, or anyone else's for security purposes.
Mr. Ross, your blog regarding the Jones-Milton election brings to mind that old saying "a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing". Misinformation harms everyone and deprives the public of facts they need to make an intelligent decision.
1. The SCEC has two attorneys, Monice Hagler (D) and John Ryder (R) they concurred regarding the TCA law applicable to this situation — TN State Party Primary Board is the authority for a primary challenge.
2. Clearly no challenge can be made until a decision has been made – two separate auditors (an R and a D) verify every item before submitting the audit for certification.
3. After they have audited the information it will be available for review.
4. Absentee ballots are not mixed with Election Day voting.
5. Well chronicled is defined by the chronicler!
6. At the conclusion of precinct voting, a tabulation is run for all the machines in that precinct – 3 identical copies are printed, one copy is posted on the wall of that precinct and the other two copies are packed separately and delivered to the SCEC that evening for auditing purposes.
7. Approx. 1,400 of your friends and neighbors answer the call to be election workers so the other 531,600 registered voters have the privilege of voting. Some of your friends and neighbors are more capable than others. Election workers are assisted by the 14-member staff. Our temp workers do a remarkable job and we are grateful they are willing to work the 13+hour Election Day. Understandably, some make mistakes but our system is set up to identify and address those errors in an orderly manner through audit.
8. I assure you that the SCEC goes by the law. Will you please help convey facts? I am happy to try to answer questions anytime.
Dee Nollner
Days before the first day of Early Voting at Satellite locations, Democratic Candidates Henri Brooks and Deidre Malone charged the Election Commission with voter suppression for reducing the number of days satellite locations were open as compared to the May 2010 County Primary.
The Election Commission says they reduced the number to reduce the cost of the election…and that the additional days of early voting at Satellite locations could be absorbed by the downtown location.
One of the issues brought up at the presser with Brooks and Malone was that the downtown location wasn't centralized enough or accessible to adequately cover the difference in the number of days Satellite locations were available…something the Election Commission seemed willing to look into for future elections.
So there are really two questions here:
1. Did the downtown location absorb a significant amount of the early voting traffic?
2. Did the absence of Early Voting days at Satellite locations suppress the vote?
To find that out, we have to get into the numbers.
Early voting at Satellite locations in the May 2010 election began on Monday, April 19th. Satellite location this year opened on Friday, April 25th. That means there were four fewer days for satellite locations this year than in 2010.
This year, there were 4707 fewer people that participated in early voting. Here's the breakdown by location types.
Diff +/-
Assisted Living
Average Voters per day
First, let's answer our two questions:
1. Did the downtown location absorb a significant amount of the early voting traffic? Not Even Close
The downtown location underperformed versus 2010 big time because for four MORE days it was the only game in town. For those four more days it brought in less than 25 more people per day. That's hardly absorbing anything of consequence.
2. Did the absence of Early Voting days at Satellite locations suppress the vote?
Before I go there, let's take a look at some data.
Looking at the table below, it seems pretty clear that the final days of early voting in 2014 were more brisk than in 2010. This is most likely due to the fewer number of days.
But by the end of Early Voting, an 8100 vote gap was narrowed to just under 4700 votes.
Cumulative Satellite votes per day. 2010 vs. 2014
Diff +/-
The fact is, with 40% fewer voting hours at satellite locations, satellite voting was only 16.7% less. On an hourly basis, there were actually about 70 MORE voters per hour in 2014 than in 2010.
Had the full 81 hours been given at that pace the final satellite tally could have been about 5700 MORE voters in early voting, which means we would have outpaced 2010 by about 1000 voters.
So its a bit disingenuous to say Early Voting is down 15% without noting the number of hours satellite locations were open is also down 40%.
All told, early voting performance for any May election was pretty good. Was it good enough to warrant 10 days of satellite locations? Probably not.
The August 2010 election brought over 90,000 early voters. That election absolutely needed to have 10 days of satellite locations.
Back to our second question. Was the decision to limit satellite locations to 6 days inherently suppressive? It certainly didn't help early voting turnout, but lets not pretend that people were flocking to the polls on any day other than the last day of Early Voting.
That said, if Tuesday night rolls around and the vote total is close to or greater than 2010 (they're projecting about a 10% decline from 2010), it'll be pretty clear that the Election Commission's projections on this were efficient from a financial standpoint, but off the mark from a "serving the public" standpoint.
Six days is probably too few, and ten days is probably too many.
There are lots of things the Election Commission can look at, including underperforming early voting locations to get the right mix of May early voting locations. For instance, one location only saw 333 votes cast in 6 days which is low by any measure.
But since this election really only happens once every four years, its a crap shoot. Hopefully for August they'll take the savings from this election, and make early voting more accessible to voters.
Of course, you'd never know what they're planning since the Election Commissions Minutes and Agendas page is 4 to 6 months behind. (sheesh, seriously people?)
I'll take a deeper look into the final election results on Wednesday and Thursday.
Stay tuned.
At that time I linked to a lot of things…including the intention to cut the number of precincts to 150 from 236.
Last year's precinct consolidation meant many voters didn't get cards with their new location until the day of the election. It can't have helped that the decision was made just a month before early voting was to begin…or that the body was so far behind on their redistricting procedure they fouled up the August state primary…leading to threats from the State Election Commission, a rebuke from the state Comptroller for shoddy management, two overturned elections, a further fouled up November election, and yet another rebuke…this time from the County.
Quite a resume, no?
So its probably easy to understand why someone might look at the current move with a skeptical eye.
The Election Commission is reportedly meeting tomorrow, Wednesday, October 15th at the Election Operations Center at 980 Nixon. I have no idea what's on the agenda because it doesn't appear on the website, nor does a meeting notice. Normal time for meetings is 4:30, but I recommend you call ahead…just to be sure. The number is 222-1200.
As you can see, transparency is highly valued at the Election Commission…even the minutes are months behind.
But according to sources this list of precinct consolidations will be up for discussion.
The 58,000 voters in the precincts that would be shut down, are 74% Democratic voters. That shouldn't come as too much of a surprise considering the partisan breakdown of the Election Commission, and the general partisan leanings of the county (which is at least 70% Democratic in November elections).
But the partisan leanings of the precincts, isn't really the issue…its the disclosure to the voters.
There hasn't been any…again.
If you're concerned about these, or any other actions of the Election Commission, I recommend you go to one of their meetings. Maybe even ask a question or two. Public meetings aren't sexy, but they are where things get done. If you don't like what's happened and what's happening, you owe it to yourself to go. Nothing happens for people who don't show up.
Here's the information again.
Election Operations Center
980 Nixon
Wednesday, October 14th, 4:30PM.
The meeting is open to the public.
Election Day is over, and despite some local reports of problems with too few machines in some places and malfunctioning machines in others…it seems to have gone pretty smoothly. Regardless of your political bent, we should all be thankful for that.
|It wasn't that way for everyone, as the video to the left shows. No matter how many times this voter pushes one button, another lights up. It's pretty freaky if you ask me and more than a little troubling.
This video is from Pennsylvania, not Tennessee. While the problem here is more likely a calibration issue, it certainly doesn't do much to make folks feel like their vote is secure.
The truth is, the last thing people want is to feel like something shady is going on. That's the rationale for all kinds of laws that impact voting.
The issue with touch-screen voting is and always has been the lack of a verifiable paper trail. As someone who works with computers all day, and so many of us do these days, we've all experienced the "I just lost everything" problem at one time or another. Touchscreen voting machines are just computers. In the absence of a paper trail, we might never know when that happens with touchscreen machines when they catastrophically fail.
In 2006 we made an investment in these machines. It was a bad investment if you ask me. At the time it took Democratic support to get these machines. I get that. But this wasn't a strictly partisan issue then and it isn't one now. I think both parties agree that unverifiable elections are unacceptable regardless of who's in charge.
Since 2006, the company that first made the machines, Diebold, has gotten out of the election business, and many states have moved back to paper ballots.
Considering all the challenges we have here in Shelby Co., the fear about a correct count shouldn't be one of them. We need to join the two Tennessee counties that got it right in the first place and the many states and local election commissions nationwide that are making the change and adopt paper ballots.
It just makes good sense, and right now is the right time.
Our next County-wide election isn't until May of 2014…the County Primary. That gives us 17 months to prepare.
This won't be the only change at the Election Commission. Word on the street is that there's a top to bottom internal review in the near future, not to mention the Election Review Committee that the County Commission empaneled (of which I am a member). Integrating the shift to paper ballots in the reform process is both an efficient and intelligent way to restore confidence in the process.
There's a lot more that needs to be done at the Election Commission, but removing one of the key sticking points, the lack of a verifiable paper trail, is one way to begin restoring confidence in the institution tasked with executing our elections.
We should all push to adopt paper ballots now. Here's how to contact the members of the Shelby County Election Commission:

How do I draw "Best-Fit" text inside of a rectangle?
Austin Henggi
Posts: 10
posted 6 years ago
I simply want to draw text inside of a rectangle. Easy. Harder: I would like the text to be as readable (translate: big) as possible with the constraint that it must be contained in the rectangle. I know about getAscent() and getDescent() and how to iterate through font types and sizes to find something that fits. But is there a more efficient / existing code for finding best font size to render a text string in a rectangle so that it is as readable as possible?

Or if you need greater accuracy on the bounding rectangle, look into TextLayout (and LineBreakMeasurer?)
No matter how you approach this, obtaining the font size for the "best fit" will still be an iterative process.

Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes released the names of 46 child sex offenders from the New York borough's Orthodox community.
Hynes, who has been investigating sex crimes in the community for four years, released the names in a policy shift, according to the New York Post. Previously, Hynes had felt that releasing the names could further hurt victims or deter others from coming forward.
"We feel now it's good for the community to know those who have been convicted," said Hynes spokesman Jerry Schmetterer.
The District Attorney's office is encouraging victims from the community to connect with an anonymous hotline called Kol Tzedek, Hebrew for "voice of justice," that was set up to snare the community's sex offenders. Calls to Kol Tzedek have resulted in 25 convictions. Hynes has declined thus far to release the names of alleged sex offenders from the community whose cases are pending.

A pretty impressive sight.See my `aarti' travelogue for more pictures...more
Go To Bed Early
I would suggest going to bed early and get up before sunrise in the morning! It is really worth it. The sun comes up on the other side of the river so if you take the boat along at sunrise you will have a great light shining on all the ghats and buildings packed on top of each other.more

The four then-Longhorn freshmen, traveling in Dibbles' vehicle with the Lancaster DT behind the wheel, were pulled over on May 1 for failing to signal when exiting I-45 in Madison County. A Brazos Valley Narcotics Task Force officer searched the car and discovered a bag containing marijuana in an air vent, leading to the possession charges. The evidence from the traffic stop, though, would have been inadmissible in court due to recent case law.
"In Trahan vs. State, the Beaumont Court determined that it is not a traffic violation for a driver to fail to signal an exit a freeway, thereby rendering any subsequent search of a vehicle that results in finding contraband fruit of an illegal stop," Bennett wrote in a news release. "The officer in this case stopped Dibbles' vehicle as a result of a failure to signal an exit from a freeway."
Dibbles and the other three players disavowed knowledge of the marijuana and a friend of Dibbles, UT student Edbreion Howard, issued a statement claiming that he had recently borrowed and driven the vehicle and that the marijuana found belonged to him. According to the Statesman, Howard later said, "I didn't sign anything," calling into question his earlier statement.
"I attempted to interview (Howard), but he and his family did not want to voluntarily cooperate," Bennett said Thursday. "Had the (Trahan) case not been in existence, I would have pursued it through a grand jury. That was the only way I was going to get to talk to him."
So, questions about the incident remain, but the legal issue is behind the freshmen four. Three of the four are expected back on campus in the fall and are expected to be contributing back-ups. One, according to an IT source, will not be back for reasons separate from the now resolved Madison County issue. For more, see the June 20 edition of the Inside Scoop.

AUDIO: Last Night's Guest Spot on NHL Home Ice's Face Off

I stopped by SiriusXM's NHL Home Ice once again to chat with Jamie Shalley on Face Off last night. We previewed tonight's Flyers/Lightning matchup, spoke of the last time these clubs met, considered the options for Tampa Bay headed toward the trade deadline, speculating on what type of additions, if any, Steve Yzerman might make to bolster his playoff-bound club and much more (before Shallz had to run me off the air after I ate up all of his time).

Cowboys LT Smith suffers high ankle sprain
Cowboys starting left tackle Tyron Smith exited with a left high ankle sprain late in the first quarter Sunday and did not return.
ARLINGTON, Texas — Cowboys starting left tackle Tyron Smith exited with a left high ankle sprain late in the first quarter Sunday and did not return.
Smith went into the locker room following the injury and returned to the sideline with his left ankle heavily taped. He worked on some moves with reserve center Kevin Kowalski but never went back into the game.
Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones said he was "a little positive" about the injury to the former first-round pick.
"It's high ankle, which bothers the daylight out of you," Jones said. "But he was in good enough shape with it to go in, but we know how those things are. But man is he a focused young man and if anybody could fight through this level — and don't ask me what level I'm talking about — but the trainers were a little more than usual optimistic that it might not be as bad as it can be."
Reserve tackle Jeremy Parnell stepped in and played on the left side for the remainder of the game. If Smith cannot go Thursday against the Washington Redskins, Parnell would likely get the start in his absence.
"We just have to wait and see," Jones added. "I really don't know enough about that at all to predict anything about his availability for Thursday or against Philadelphia."

The Smithsonian's Air and Space Museum is doing some spring cleaning. Curators are offering to give away parts of the museum's collection to qualified museums and educational organization to make room for new additions.
If anyone is in need of a Vietnam-era Marine Corps chopper, the Smithsonian's Udvar-Hazy Center is willing to part with theirs. Other items the museum may give away range from space suits to rocket engines.
"In the museum field we call is deaccessioning. This is the process of getting rid of items that are surplus to the museum's objectives or goals," said{}Museum Specialist Roger Connor.
Connor said some of the items are duplicates, or the museum doesn't have room to display other items properly.
But in the case of the UH-34, it's more about the helicopter's story. It was a trainer that never saw combat.
"If we are going to tell the story of marines flying in combat, we want an aircraft that flew in combat, so we are actively looking for a replacement," Connor says.
Like any museum, there will always be new exhibits coming in and some old ones going away. But rest assured favorites, like the Blackbird or Space Shuttle Discovery, are here to stay.
In 2009, the Smithsonian parted with a WWII B-17 bomber that hadn't seen combat and needed restoration. The National Museum of the Mighty 8th Air Force in Savannah, Ga. took on the project and has made the plane the center piece of its museum.
"They had an excess airplane in inventory and gave us a call one day and said, 'Would you all like a B-17?" Of course that was our number one mission, to acquire a B-17 for this museum, so of course we said yes," said Henry Skipper, president and CEO of the National Museum of the Mighty 8th Air Force.
The Smithsonian also sent a full-size model of an experimental plane packing to New York's Cradle of Aviation Museum.
"It meant a lot to the people who live up here, who retired up here. It's going to be a very unique part of our collection," said Andrew Parton, the museum's executive director.
