Looks like Bob Rae will be the king maker. Third vote looks like Ignatieff, Dion, Rae, in that order. Rae has a choice of either sending his delegates up to one of the others, or freeing them up to vote as they please. It all comes down to the perception Plum was talking about earlier-- how much does Quebec really hate Dion.
Personally, I think Dion would make a great PM, but the numbers may not be there.
The other issue is that if Ignatieff and Rae, old roommates and college buddies, end up supporting each other, it really looks like the Liberals are the party of elitism.
I fucking hate Ignatieff.

A funny split pea soup story. When my eldest son was about 13-14 months old, my husband had poured some hot split pea soup into the blender to puree it. I was standing in the kitchen holding my son letting him watch the blender. After about 10 seconds the lid flew off the container and pea soup flew out onto the counter, the walls, the stove, the floor. We were all in shock until my son said, "Pea soup everywhere." Then we burst into laughter.
when i moved to florida i bought some in a can to make enchiladas. don't do that.

Dusty Springfield sang, "Something's happening here," but who was it that sang,"We've got to get out of this place?"
Cuz BUFFALO Springfield sang for "What It's Worth," which is where the line comes from.
The Animals "We Gotta Get Outta....." which is an up from the bad neighborhood song and would be a Vietnam song at only a very long stretch. Plus, it came out in 65 which was a bit before the anti-war movement would have been popular enough to produce Top 40 hits by British invasion bands.

Sounds like there's plenty cooking today. I just got back from an amazingly huddled masses-free trip to the Berkeley Bowl, with around $300 in groceries. Usually its a mind-boggling scrum there on Saturday morning, but today it was virtually deserted. Alex and I had the run of the place. I guess the combination of a Cal home game and mild, sunny weather made everybody decide to put their shopping off. Usually that also means there's no checkers either, but they must have cracked down or something.
Anyhow, I got 5 pounds of country style ribs to marinate for Chinese BBQ pork tomorrow, a 2 pound boneless pork loin roast for wienerschnitzel tonight, and a nice corned beef brisket for later in the week. Might just have to invite somebody over, if we can get the whole tree thing out of the way in a timely fashion.

Evan Dando was one of the first people on the internets to have a hate site.
I find it hard to hate Evan Dando, even though he didn't give us our money's worth that night.
Anywho, years later I learned my that my wife (long before I knew her) also saw that tour, although she was a pert college student at the time. They thought Redd Kross sucked. "Are you kidding?" I said. "The Lemonheads shouldn't have even been the top bill on that tour."
Of course, this is the sort of thing that keeps thing interesting around our flat.
would be a Vietnam song at only a very long stretch.
except that it was played alot by guys over there...the refrain was compelling, no matter that it seemed to be sung to a girl...everyfuckingbody felt like that: We GOTTA Get OUTTA This PLACE!!!

Saw 'em on Halloween once. They performed as the opening band, as a TMBG tribute band going by the name "Sapphire Bullets." Only about 10 people in the audience actually got the joke.
I LOVE They might be Giants!
They made a little birdhouse in my soul! One of life's biggest regrets was NOT watching them when I had a chance. I actually WON tickets to see them in SF. We got there, "Not on the list." I didn't have enough money to get in. That plus the person I was with and I looked like we were out of the suburbs at the time. Khakis and blue shirts. Plaid jackets. The people at the door were goth with a chain from thier nose to their ear. No ATM in the general area of the club. We left.
sigh.
Well, for me the most seen band is the Grateful Dead, by a mile. Probably seen 'em at least 20 times, I didn't count. That doesn't meen they were my favorites, though, even then.
blerb |
YES-15+ times in 30+ years.
And still my faves, warts and all.
For me the band I saw most often when they came to the Fillmore East was Jefferson Airplane.
Seen The Dead 3 times, JGB twice and The Other Ones once.

Now that must have been something!
After the American Revolution, he returned to his homeland, what was then the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. In 1791 the Poles adopted their celebrated May Constitution—Europe’s first codified national constitution (and the second oldest in the world, after our own.) The May Constitution established political equality between the middle class and the nobility and also partially abolished serfdom by giving civil rights to the peasants, including the right to state protection from landlord abuses. The autocrats and nobles of Russia feared such reforms, and in 1794, when the Russians sought to prevent their spread by partitioning the Commonwealth, Kosciuszko led an insurrection. His untrained peasant forces were armed mostly with single-blade sickles, but they won several early battles in fierce hand-to-hand fighting, until they were finally overwhelmed. Badly injured, Kosciuszko was taken prisoner and held for two years in St. Petersburg, and that was the end of the Polish Commonwealth, which had stood, by the way, as one of Europe’s leading centers of religious liberty.
It's a neverending fight. Justice doesn't just happen, and most of the world seems to be allied against it. It's a miracle the idea ever came into being, and it's a miracle every time people stand up and fight for it.

blerb; '3. Place the container containing the egg yolk/acid mixture in a pan or container of water (such as a small double boiler) that is at a simmering temperature of 180 to 190F (82.2 to 87.8C). Heat the yolk/acid mixture to a temperature of 150F (65.6C). This will take about 1 minute. The mixture must be stirred or whisked constantly and the temperature measured frequently by using a tip-sensitive thermocouple thermometer (such as the Atkins 33040). The thermocouple can be taped to the wire whip to give continuous temperature as the mixture is stirred. When a temperature of 150F (65.6C) is reached, immediately remove the pan containing the yolk/acid mixture from the hot-water heat source. Cool the egg mixture to room temperature [
Have you read Please Kill Me?
I got it for my birthday and have been reading through it a little at a time. Haven't gotten to that part yet.
I saw the Airplane in Houston in '67, I believe.
That is a great name for a band.
They were in full costume, as well. From the Chiefs jerseys to the glasses.
We played together at the Fireside Bowl in Chicago...
Then there was the time I had a severe case of bronchitis but I went to see a TMBG show anyway. I joined the conga line that night. I think they were doing the "Planet of the Apes" bit that night, too.
There was a funny piece about the Bare Naked Ladies on NPR this morning, something about robbing banks.
Can you recommend a particularly good pozole procedure? I'd like to try my hand.

the biggest issue is if you have the proper corn stuff...
you can buy it canned, or dried. it's basically hominy. the authentic stuff has the corn husk removed by a lye-soak...then it's dried. the amount of time preparation depends on whether you buy the hominy canned or dry, cuz if dry, you hafta soak it...
Once you have the hominy, almost any recipe'll do for preparation. thisn looks as good as any.
lotsa times, the posole is combined at the table with chunks of carne adovado and eaten togehter, with a tortilla or six...

Seen The Dead 3 times, JGB twice and The Other Ones once.
Oddly, I never went to see the Jerry band even once, even though by all accounts they were better than the Dead towards the end, and they played at the Warfield like every other week for years. I feel kind of foolish about that.

It's a hard but rewarding read. I had no idea just how fucking insane Iggy Pop was.
It's pathetic that I like TMBG that much, that's all.
I see their bumper stickers on cars all over the neighborhood. Only band's stickers I see. They are well loved by those who love em.
Wil Weaton is actually a very good writer. He wrote a couple of REALLY good essays about his family that I really really liked. I mean he's no Athenae, but still good stuff.
And he is a tech geeks best friend.
Maybe he will be one of the BSG unrevealed skin jobs models! That would be fun!
My best TMBG is seeing them in 1985 or so opening for Robyn Hitchcock and the Egyptians and buying their first album from them in the lobby for $8 on the condition that they autograph it, which they did.
Not really a story so much as an anecdote I guess.
oh, spocko, that's awful. The one time I was supposed to see them was an outdoor concert at my grad school--cancelled because of a torrential downpour. You'd think they'd have had a plan B, given that it was Miami, but no.
they were better than the Dead towards the end
Easily.
That plus the person I was with and I looked like we were out of the suburbs at the time. Khakis and blue shirts. Plaid jackets.
Sounds like a TMBG fan to me ...
I still think of the Jefferson Airplane's song, "White Rabbit," as the anti-war anthem of the 1960s.

Saw 'em in Seattle, and Johnny started a fight w/ the audience.
At one point he said"If one more fuckin' thing flies onstage.."
and immediately got hit in the forehead with a large coke cup full of compressed ice. Knocked him COLD.
We never got the "Punk" thing in Seattle. Went straight to grunge.

It's meant in the Archie Bunker sense - she's dead from the neck up.
Dion is highest vote getter. Ignatieff not far behind. One more ballot.
That was back when she was Bancroft Coulter and before (s)he woke up from a bad acid trip in a Swedish sex-change clinic run by Dr. Hrmbinghimlinghrbaugh.

One of my life highlights. Seeing Devo at a tiny club in the midwest.
I was wearing a yellow jumpsuit and was in the balcony. The lead singer ran up the stairs with his mike

I reponded "We are Devo!"
Good times. Good times.

Terry C,
Country Joe had the best all around anti-war song, though, really.
I think of "For What It's Worth" as the anthem for the whole movement.
All of the above is IMHO, strictly.
Line from the Muppet Movie just ended:
"How should I know How many grits? Count 'em yourself!"
The drugs in "White Rabbit" were what enabled you to ignore the "Men on the chessboard, when they tell you where to go!"
And "Feed your head!" was more a ringing statement of defiance to the authorities than anything else.

CANADA IS DOOMED! Damn those tories will get reelected. Dion cannot win seats in Qc and you can't win a majority govt without Québec. And Ignatieff is the "intellectual" bastard we love to hate. Either way, we get stuck with the conservatives! MERDE!
But who could forget the greatest anti-war anthem of all time?
Boy George's "War is Stupid"?
It all comes down to if more people hate Ignatieff for his pro-torture, pro-Iraq war sentiments or hate Dion for his clarity act.

Barry;
from Molly Ivins;
'Since he brought it up, it's worth taking a look at Bush's picks for the state Supremes, since they do tell us rather a lot about his taste in judges.
Fans of the arcane sport of electing judges in Texas know that the process offers an abundance of frisks and jollifications. Who can forget the time we accidentally elected the Wrong Don Yarbrough? (The Wrong Don, who later became a felon on the lam, claimed that he won because God told him to run; this caused political cartoonist Ben Sargent to draw God on a cloud, looking harassed, saying, "Yeah, but I thought he was the Other Don Yarbrough.")'

Chas Chandler made major contributions to 1960s British rock as a musician, producer, and manager.

He made a greater impact, though, as co-manager and producer of the Jimi Hendrix Experience from 1966 to 1968,

I knew that! (sniffs defensively, lower lip trembling). When I make tamale gravy or chile colorado, before I throw the dried red chiles (3/4 ancho, 1/4 New mexico) in the pot I briefly toast them on a really hot dry cast iron pan, so as to get that yummy toasted chile flavor. I though tthat was the standard procedure, and it seemed like that would work well for pozole, too.
So, if you're using green chiles, what kind do you use, and do you roast them first?

Did I every tell you bats my theory about Bush and the national guard?
One of planes he landed got messed up because he landed poorly and was either drunk or high. The damage was fixed and the incident was covered up. The plane might even have been totalled and taken out of service. I say this because this was one of the rumors that people were asking him about. Bushes response "Where's the evidence?" to the question about a crashed plane.
In my fevered pre-2004 mind I would have loved to track the history of all the planes he flew. What happened to them? When did they leave service? What happened to the one he flew right before he stopped flying? Maintance records?
But nobody would care. Or I would be "quieted".

Nah, actually like the incompentants that they are, they only focused on the BUSH records. In his file. I watch enough mysteries that they always forget the multiple ways that the government stores records. Especially regarding multimillion dollar aircrafts. Too many people touch the boring old maintance records. But then again I'm not highly paid TV journalist with a staff and a budget who could look into that stuff or even notice it.

spocko - Re Bush and TANG - I was telling some people the other day that I just found out one of my MIL's best friends for over forty years was married to the guy (now deceased) that trained Bush to fly, and was one of his CO's.
She had no idea of my politics, and the subject came up in a indirect way when I was asking her about a building by my house named for her husband.
Anyway, she told me her husband had never mentioned to her a bad word about Bush, and I think she would have told me if he had. My take is he was a decent pilot for the first year or two, got hooked up with all the coke and partying in Houston, and then made some kind of flying mistake that scared the piss out of him. Daddy got wind, and pulled his ass out of TANG pronto and sent him up to help in that guys campaign.
And who drove Cokie's dad to the airport when he disappeared in alaska (never found yet)? Bill Clinton.

Fixed your typo, jacko!
although Hendrix had written little or no songs previously and wanted to do a cover tune (Chandler honestly remembered that he also wanted to make sure Hendrix got some publishing royalties). Partially as a result of the books in Chandler's apartment, particularly the science fiction ones, Hendrix's lyrics took on a poetic and cosmic influence.
that's most interesting. i don't think hendrix was a dylan, but some mighty interesting lyrics.
i hate to say it, but i imagine 'masters of war' sums it all up. they'll just keep lying about how "a world war can be won" and "fasten all the triggers", the best one can hope for is to piss on their graves.

Chris/tx Very interesting. Of course a flying mistake that doesn't result in damage isn't anything you would prove unless you had records. Too bad they disappeared or were classified.
Plus as we all know being "born again" means anything you did 40 years ago didn't count. Of course it counts for Kerry but he wasn't born again and his slate wasn't wiped clean.

Ciro Rodrigues will have an uphill battle, since he only polled about 20%, and his opponent almost got 50%, narrowly missing getting enough to win without a runoff. But the runoff will be a low turnout affair, so anything is possible. Every vote matters, so getting out the vote is critical.

O yeah - that was awesome.
I just love that show. If it wasn't for The Wire, I'd say it was the best thing on TV.
spocko - Part of the reason I say that (my theory) is that I briefly took flying lessons in the late seventies when all the instructors where ex Vietman era pilots. Those guys loved to fly.
But look at Bush, he became a pilot in one of the harder planes to learn to fly, and then basically walked away from flying. I've only heard one instance of him flying after TANG, and that was in Midland where he scared the shit out of his passenger. People don't learn to fly, and then just walk away from it for good. Whatever happened to him must have been a doozy for him to just basically quit.
What's your point, jack?
I swear, this guy sniffs some paint thinner and then starts posting shit that one cares about.
Hecate, that is an interesting question.
In my opinion, the government is vulnerable here, because I'll bet it can be proved that christian charities were favored over ones from other faiths.

Never liked Maazel when he was running the Cleveland, too arrogant. Von Dahonnyi was excellent, especially since his old man tried to kill Hitler. I think the jury is out on Walther-Most, but I like what he is doing so far.
I'm not a fan of Maazel, and I remember the brouhaha when the New York Phil's hired of him after the ouster of Masur. I wonder where Masur is going after he leaves the LPO next year.

Is Tena around?
Just read a NYT review of the song 50 Shots, thought she might be interested:
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/0...r=1&
oref=slogin
At midnight on Thursday night, listeners who were tuned into the New York hip-hop radio station Hot 97 got a bracing surprise. Over some familiar strings, a voice said, “R.I.P. to Sean Bell,” the black man who was killed by the police in Queens early Saturday morning. “R.I.P. to Kathryn Johnston,” he continued, naming the 88-year-old woman who was killed by the police in Atlanta last week. “R.I.P. to Amadou Diallo,” he said naming the African immigrant who was shot by the police in the Bronx in 1999. “The list goes on. A change gon’ come.”
The voice belonged to Papoose, a rapper from Brooklyn whose new song, “50 Shots,” is a furious — and surprisingly detailed — response to the shooting of Mr. Bell.
[snip]
Papoose’s song uses a sample of Sam Cooke’s “A Change Is Gonna Come.” Near the beginning, he says, “Make the whole hood feel sad, it’s sadness/But we feel mad — it’s madness.” Then he delves into the details.
He assails the officers by name: “Mike Oliver said his gun jammed, he the main one/12-year veteran and don’t know how to use a gun.”
He paraphrases the Police Department’s Patrol Guide: “The law states a cop is not permitted to shoot at a moving car.” (That’s true, unless the officer is responding to some “deadly physical force” besides the car itself.)
[snip]
Papoose even finds time to respond to a column by John Podhoretz from Tuesday’s New York Post; this is a rhyme that sometimes feels more like a vituperative blog entry.

The Court also said it would rule on whether taxpayers may sue to challenge the White House program of promoting federal aid to religious "faith-based" organizations. And it accepted a test case on whether government employees doing their official duties are subject to damage lawsuits under the RICO anti-racketeering law or under the Constitution.
In each of the cases, the Court's order spelled out a shortened briefing schedule that will have the final briefs submitted by Feb. 16 -- time enough to be argued during the Court's February sitting, which concludes on Feb. 28. Ordinarily, a briefing schedule allows for 115 days in total; under the orders issued Friday, all briefing in each of the new cases must be completed in a total of 78 days. Because two of the new cases are appeals by the federal government, experienced counsel in the office of the U.S. Solicitor General will be under the heaviest pressure to prepare. In the third case, the initial brief also is to be filed by an experienced advocate, former U.S. Solicitor General (and former federal judge and Whitewater prosecutor) Kenneth W. Starr.

There was a special election ordered by the court which redrew the districts, which was held concurrent with the General Election on Nov. 7. The special election was open to just about anyone who filed for the seat. There were 8 candidates, Bonilla was first with 48.60% and Rodriguez had almost 20%. See this report from the Texas Secretary of State, scroll down to U.S. Representative District 23.
The election that will be held on December 12 is the runoff. I think it's winnable, but there's no denying that Rodriguez is fighting an uphill battle. It will be a low turnout election, so turning out voters will be the key.

You mean, that kind of thinking could only be accomplished by a stone-cold, bone-ignorant racist who hates women?

Yeah, that's pretty much what I mean.
Anyone who thinks there is "groupthink" here was not here last night.
You are the second/third person to say something like that, synopsis?
The thing about the Toby troll for me is that I'm about 90% convinced he actually believes the stuff he says, unlike most of our trolls.

He does.

Mark B.
A question:
of likely voters?
or
name recognition?
Oh, and was thees before the redistricting was held unconstitutional?
muchas gracias, een advance.
so.
There was a special election ordered by the court which redrew the districts, which was held concurrent with the General Election on Nov. 7. The special election was open to just about anyone who filed for the seat. There were 8 candidates, Bonilla was first with 48.60% and Rodriguez had almost 20%. See this report from the Texas Secretary of State, scroll down to U.S. Representative District 23.
The election that will be held on December 12 is the runoff. I think it's winnable, but there's no denying that Rodriguez is fighting an uphill battle. It will be a low turnout election, so turning out voters will be the key.

I like anybody who makes me think about things outside the box and not in a way a regular troll does. A typical troll is just trying to 'annoy liberals.' Ô¿Ô
Lots of people here do that, not only trolls; it's just that some people have better social skills and understand they are more effective by connecting with others rather than browbeating. Also, some things actually belong in the box.

On my way out to California from DC for the first time, I went thru New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah, and experienced what "chili" really is supposed to be. I have not dreamt of actually putting the beans in the pot with the meat since then. They go on the side, along with the rice and the tortillas.

I agree with that. My impression of the hardcore redwhiteblue, auggy types is that they like political trash talk, and the GOP appeals to their inherent selfishness and bigotry, but they don't really have the integrity to have core values. They're the guys who will deny supporting Bush in a few years when the broad consensus is that he was a an unmitigatd disaster for the world.
Who the hell is Omar?
Omar Little
Bah! Fuck all y'all.
No thanks, Tobes.
One more thing that I have to say about the Texas District 23 race is the the 6 Democrats in the race got just about the same number of votes as the 1 Republican in the race. If Rodriguez can pick up the voters for the other Democratic candidates, and convince them to turn out, he has a decent chance.
Omar Hakim!

What a bunch of narcissists! I have no problem believing that you people believe as you do, so why is it that you think I'm just some sort of contrarian or irritant?
If it makes you feel better, I just think you're a self-important, obnoxious jerk with paleolithic politics, who can't seem to articulate any kind of disagreement with anyone aound here without degenerating into the worst, most offensive kind of nastiness.
Omar Simpson?
He lives by a strict code and never deviates from his rules, foremost of which is that he never robs or menaces people who are not involved in the drug trade (In the courtroom in Season 2, Omar claims "I never put my gun on no citizen"). Notably, Omar is also the only character on the series who never uses profanity.
He doesn't seem that bad.

He's The Worst Ever
http://www.washingtonpost.com/
wp...6120101509.html
Historians are loath to predict the future. It is impossible to say with certainty how Bush will be ranked in, say, 2050. But somehow, in his first six years in office he has managed to combine the lapses of leadership, misguided policies and abuse of power of his failed predecessors. I think there is no alternative but to rank him as the worst president in U.S. history.
He doesn't seem that bad.

He reminds me of a guy I knew in college - start with the ideology that he finds appealing, fair enough, but then seek out only confirming facts to support it, make up some when none are handy, and ignore or defame inconveniently contradictory information, even and especially when challenged with it. If it weren't for cognitive dissonance he'd have no cognitions at all.

I can run circles around them when it comes to politics. Always have been able to because I pay a hell of a lot more attention to poltics, I imagine. That's probably a reason they make more money than I do.

A truly cool person would not mention that they were cool, or even give a shit if they were cool or not.

And if you were more succesful money-wise you would be a "limosine libral" so easily spit out by Rush.
And JeffCo. I totally hear you on that kind of guy. That is one of the best thing about my 9 years of Jesuit education. I felt that it constantly reminded to me to avoid falling into self reinforcing information especially if by obseration and evidence it can be proved wrong.
In the PR Spin biz you look at the disaster and say, "How can we turn this to make it GOOD news?"
In pundit world it is, How can I deny reality and not get caught. And if I do get caught ignore, deny, spin and lie.
Specifically I have an example of the last one. Melanie Morgan said.
"We've got a bull's-eye painted on [Pelosi's] big, wide laughing eyes"
Not once but twice.
And then when she got caught (by me) which she ignored then by media matters (which she ignored) and then by Keith Olbermann she pretended she never said the word Bull's-eye.
Then when she got called on THAT non-apology (by someone I don't know who, it certainly wasn't her husband the GM or the president of the station) she gave another non-apology pretending she was having a tiff with Keith Olberman and not saying
"We've got a bull's-eye painted on [Pelosi's] big, wide laughing eyes"
And days later "it's time to put the bull's-eye on her."
And who lets her get away with this?
DISNEY! I guess you really CAN mess with the Mouse!

Narcissistic personality disorder
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Nar...nality_disorder
At least five of the following are necessary for a diagnosis:
1.has a grandiose sense of self-importance
2.is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
3. believes that he or she is "special" and unique and can only be understood by other special people
4.requires excessive admiration
5.strong sense of entitlement
6.takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
7.lacks empathy
8.is often envious or believes others are envious of him or her
9.arrogant affect.
I never did either. Bedouin tents are also black which doesn't make sense. Doesn't "black" soak up heat
I've read that black actually is better insulation against the heat.
Believe it or not.
Damn IT! That was me. Fraking REAL scroll trolls mess it up for us regular folks. That was a brilliant post (no biofuel mentioned though)
Frak. That'll teach me.
It was about Melanie Morgan and her lying about saying, "We've got a bull's-eye painted on [Pelosi's] big, wide laughing eyes" on the radio. She said it not once but twice on two different days. DeLay agrees that "it's time to put the bull's-eye on her {Pelosi}"
I busted her, Media Matters Busted her and she ignored us. Keith Olbermann busted her basted on my clips and she pretended she didn't say it. Then when someone busted her (not her husband the GM or the President of the station Mr.HotTalk Himself Mickey Luckoff) she gave another non-apology pretending she was just having a tiff with Keith Olbermann. She didn't mention the word "bullseye" which shows me she knows EXACTLY what she is talking about and was coached not to say it again.
Republican's if you are rich and evil you are one of them. If you are rich they assume you must be evil or else they will call you a "Limousine Liberal" as if they can't conceive of anyone who is rich not to be a selfish jerk like them with their own politics. I know lots of rich democrats. But I'm not one of them.
