Sure Looks Like Democracy To Me
TEHRAN, Iran — Iranians packed polling stations from boutique-lined streets in north Tehran to conservative bastions in the countryside Friday with a choice that’s left the nation divided and on edge: keeping hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in power or electing a reformist who favors greater freedoms and improved ties with the United States. Iranian women […]
Power Out in New Castle Area
There is a massive black-out in New Castle right now. The Governor is about to sign HB1 into law in Old New Castle. I think somewhere Thurman Adams is laughing his fool head off right next to an oversized knife switch.
Can Hate Talk Lead To Murder?
Well, let’s face it… it doesn’t help. Joan Walsh at Salon ponders the point. Read the whole thing. It’s a thoughtful, careful piece and well worth your time.

Around the Horn Friday
This will be the first time, and perhaps last time, that I link to the Delaware Grapevine in this thread. But Celia does have a nice write up about the 6th Annual Summer Bash. [T]he Sixth Annual Summer Bash last Saturday in Milton was turned into a charity event for the Food Bank of Delaware. […]

Interestingly, Castle cited his upcoming and tortuous decision on whether to run for the Senate or retire as the reason for the demurrer. “In my discussions with members of the Steering Committee, there […]
Garfunkle and Oats
Riki “Garfunkel” Lindhome and Kate “Oates” Micucci who gave us the instant classic “Sex With Ducks” have a bunch of great songs on their website. Don’t go there though. Not unless you are impervious to awesomeness. Imaginary (Only You) from Erika Lindhome on Vimeo. www.myspace.com/garfunkelandoates

U of D Football should add 8,000 bleacher seats and join The Big East
This John guy seems to know his shit. I follow Pitt. Go to any Big east blog, including ESPN.coms Big East blog. All of the fans of all programs are sick of the 3-4 scheduling. They need 1 more team to be able to schedule 4 home and 4 away. If UCONN can move up […]
