-----
Even the media are drawn to the allure that is Obama. Yes, the media are liberal. Even so, it is obvious that this election is different. The media are open and brazen in their attempts to influence the outcome of this election. I've never seen anything like it. Virtually all evidence of Obama's past influences and radicalism — from Jeremiah Wright to William Ayers — have been raised by non-traditional news sources. The media's role has been to ignore it as long as possible, then mention it if they must, and finally dismiss it and those who raise it in the first place. It's as if the media use the Obama campaign's talking points — its preposterous assertions that Obama didn't hear Wright from the pulpit railing about black liberation, whites, Jews, etc., that Obama had no idea Ayers was a domestic terrorist despite their close political, social, and working relationship, etc. — to protect Obama from legitimate and routine scrutiny. And because journalists have also become commentators, it is hard to miss their almost uniform admiration for Obama and excitement about an Obama presidency. So in the tank are the media for Obama that for months we've read news stories and opinion pieces insisting that if Obama is not elected president it will be due to white racism. And, of course, while experience is crucial in assessing Sarah Palin's qualifications for vice president, no such standard is applied to Obama's qualifications for president. (No longer is it acceptable to minimize the work of a community organizer.) Charles Gibson and Katie Couric sought to humiliate Palin. They would never and have never tried such an approach with Obama.

GravatarAustralia scientists say bees can count to four
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/ 20081...stralia_science
SYDNEY (Reuters) – Researchers have discovered that honey bees can count to four, a report said here on Sunday.
A researcher from the University of Queensland put five markers inside a tunnel and placed nectar in one of them, Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) radio reported.
Honey bees placed in the tunnel flew to the marker with the food, and would still fly to the same marker stripe when the food was removed.
"We find that if you train them to the third stripe, they will look subsequently in the third stripe," researcher Mandyam Srinivasan said.
"If you train them to the fourth stripe, they will look the fourth stripe and so on. But their ability to count seems to go only up to four. They can't count beyond four.
"The more we look at these creatures that have a brain the size of a sesame seed, the more astonished we are. They really have a lot of the capacities that we so-called higher human beings possess."
The research was carried out jointly with Swedish researcher Marie Dacke.

Drive-by to a fun story:

Gov. Sarah Palin's signature accomplishment — a contract to build a 1,715-mile pipeline to bring natural gas from Alaska to the Lower 48 — emerged from a flawed bidding process that narrowed the field to a company with ties to her administration, an Associated Press investigation shows...

Despite Palin's boast of a smart and fair bidding process, the AP found that her team crafted terms that favored only a few independent pipeline companies and ultimately benefited the winner, TransCanada Corp.

And contrary to the ballyhoo, there's no guarantee the pipeline will ever be built; at a minimum, any project is years away, as TransCanada must first overcome major financial and regulatory hurdles.

...Under a different set of rules four years earlier, TransCanada had offered to build the pipeline without a state subsidy; under Palin, the company could receive a maximum $500 million.

By an astounding coincidence, the US greatest period of sustained economic growth, at the highest rate, was when the top rate was 91%.

GravatarWord must have come down from the big GE guys 'upstairs' about making a jack ass (a bigger jack ass) out of Palin.

Nah, it was clear that Fey wasn't going to do two shows, and that the SNL writing team is limited to one good political sketch per week.

To be honest, they could switch to the open plus Weekend Update in half an hour and no-one would know the fucking difference.

DWD: read upthread to catch up. You're too sick for what they're telling you. They're missing something. A hospital isn't a bad idea. Lots of people to look at you.

An old adage in medicine is that common things occur commonly, so a doc who hears hoofbeats shouldn't think 'zebras' off the bat. But sometimes that's what's happening. They're missing something, and you're not being served well.

Well, it was a surprise. I sat through a lot of bad films on flights, and I was surprised how good it was, considering the track record.

I think these bozos are really short on combat experience and tactics training, given that they've spent their whole lives in service to the 101st Keyboard Brigade. Not much of a contest.


GravatarATDH, what, no RPGs?

A LAW is, tactically, the US version of an RPG, although they're a bit different as the LAW is recoilless.

RPGs are old Soviet Union weapons. Serve the same purpose, basically.

GravatarI might add that TOWs and RPGs are "fire and forget" weapons, while the Dragon and the TOW are guided weapons.

A "fire-and-forget" weapon guides itself. TOW and Dragon are wire-guided to impact. An RPG isn't guided at all (just aimed).

FaF weapons are "terminal guidance" weapons like heat-seeking missiles, or GPS guided munitions.

Travelling to the US from the UK was much more fun when it guaranteed you a film that wasn't out in Britain. Going the other way, you get 'current film' eastbound and 'film from six months ago' on the way back.

OK, be pedantic on me.

You're correct, "fire and forget" is more specific about self guidance. But the point is, you shoot a LAW or an RPG and you duck or otherwise unass your immediate AO.

Can't do that with a Dragon or TOW. Gotta sit there and hope no one can track back to your position.

I can't think of any British sitcoms or dramas, old or new, set in 1960s offices. I'm sure there were London ad agencies in 1960, but there's no cultural imprint. I think of Steptoe and Son or Till Death Do Us Part, both of which became part of 1970s American culture.

Oh, you're likely correct. I'm just a visual doofus. It could be the clippiest clip from Cliptown, I would still miss it.

It's really a shame I lack any visual talent - I have a crummy personality, I drink too much, and I'm self-centered. I'd have made a great artist if I had a single iota of talent.

Sadly, I am just a big PITA.

GravatarBarack Obama can count on a very high degree of support from African-American voters, which place it 5th nationally. The state is in the top ten in percentage of female voters, and South Carolina's traditionally awful turnout rates -- worst on the mainland -- could allow for a Democratic surge to pull the race into single digits if one assumes such a surge would come from excited Dems. Unemployment is relatively high in South Carolina, which might push economic concerns a bit higher on the list of deciding factors. Obama dramatically overperformed the polls here in the primary, and if a reverse Bradley effect exists, it might appear in a state like South Carolina.
