The Sarah Palin Debate FlowChart

The ‘debate’ is past, and it convinced me of two things. Joe Biden is a mature, sincere person who will be  a good vice-president. Sarah Palin is a person who does well reading cards, but has almost no level of understanding of the issues facing our country or the reuirements to be vice president. She seems self-centered, and concerned with only her and Jon McCain’s narrow self-serving agenda.

Adam Nek posted a great flowchart to accompany his blog entry, MooseHunter,  for the night/morning after the debate. Here is yet another copy of the image:

Defensible Cheating & A Place to Bury Strangers link for 2008-10-01

Azalea at home, Falmouth, VA

  • ACM Ubiquity – In Defense of Cheating
    I was disturbed by Golub’s article because the emphasis was on cheating by students and possible counteractive measures. Never did he ask the more fundamental questions: What is the purpose of an examination; Why do students cheat? Instead, he proposed that faculty become police enforcers, trying to weed out dishonest behavior. I would prefer to turn faculty into educators and mentors, guiding students to use all the resources at their disposal to solve important problems.

    A Place to Bury Strangers
  • San Francisco Bay Guardian : Article : Our weekly picks
    There are two things you should know about A Place to Bury Strangers: they are very loud and very good. They’re not loud like most rock bands are loud; they’re loud like a band that has its own line of custom effects pedals and once destroyed a rare record press just by running a tape of its recording through it is loud.

Obama & Biden at University of Mary Washington

Barack Obama and Joe Biden were at a rally at University of Mary Washington on Saturday, September, 27, 2008,along with 26,000 of their friends.  it was an exciting and uplifting experience to hear them speak and to be with the crowd. we cam on campus a little after 1:00  and the rally was over about 8:30. Beautiful sunshine to start with, a downpour at 5,a time of clearing, and then more rain while Obama was speaking. The rain did nothing to dampen the spirit of the crowd. It really is a thrill to be in the presence of a skilled orator.

A Place to Bury Strangers

  • Up & Coming – Music – Up & Coming – The Stranger, Seattle’s Only Newspaper
    Headliners A Place to Bury Strangers come heralded as the “loudest band in New York.” Although last time they were here, their postindustrial shoegaze was no match for the noise complaints of Chop Suey’s fussy neighbor. Here’s hoping they have better luck this time.
