If you look at our past two-three years of local and state level elections it's been doing it's damnedest to become a hardcore conservative state. I am rather proud and surprised at both campaigns though that her sexual preference wasn't made an issue of in the race because there were some seriously nasty attack ads floating about. Me and most of my co-workers didn't even know that until after the election was over.

Hell I was more shocked when put the words public transportation and outside of the city in the same sentence. Round these parts if you can even SEE the city border you're out of luck for public transport. Ahh the joys of midwestern united states...

Unless Mega Blocks stepped up their game in the last decade quality was always the biggest justification for the price difference between the two. With LEGO unless someone/thing had been chewing on or intentionally deforming the bricks you could be almost certain that two randomly selected bricks from your pile would fit together well. Mega Blocks on the other would be lucky to have them fit together at all let alone stay together.

The State of Electronic Voting In the 2008 US Elections 223

Geek Satire writes "Voting works only if you believe your vote gets counted accurately. The 2008 US elections have avoided many well-known problems of the 2004 and 2000 elections, but many problems remain. O'Reilly News interviewed Dr. Barbara Simons, advisor to the Federal Election Assistance Commission, to review electronic voting in the 2008 US elections, discussing the physical security of storing and maintaining election machines, the move from electronic back to paper ballots, and why open source voting machines don't necessarily solve problems of bugs, backdoors, and audits."
