Blogging the recount: Counties understood rules differently
Minneapolis Star Tribune MN
TiceFive county responses are now posted on. They make it clear that the rules governing the reconsideration of rejected absentee ballots were anything but clear. The court had asked these counties (and several others whose responses haven’t yet been posted) to explain how they handled additional rejected ballots that either the Coleman or Franken campaigns wanted to see added to the list for reconsideration.
Consumers Union to Buy Gawker Blog Consumerist
New York Times United States
Consumerist is one of several sites Gawker has sold this year including the political gossip blog Wonkette and the travel site Gridskipper. The blog offers consumer tips like how to return products and how to confound a telemarketer and covers shopper complaints like excessive retail markups. It will become part of a new division of Consumers Union and the current editors will remain. No plans are under way to change the coverage or to begin charging for the site. “We don’t want to acquire the Consumerist and then squelch it in some way” said Kevin McKean vice president and editorial director of Consumers Union.

Dissent is welcome but keep it clean or you’ll be sent to the penalty box. WHAT UP WITH AARN MILES AND THE SMACK TALK? The dude got a World Series ring here right? The Cardinals gave him more than 1200 at-bats in three seasons and skipper Tony La Russa showcased Miles’ ability to play multiple positions all of which helped to get him a nice pay day from the Cubs. I’m genuinely happy for him.

I think it’s great people get excited about losing weight and turning their health around this time of year. But I only wish they’d KEEP that excitement for more than a few days weeks or months down the road–they’d be MUCH better off if they did. Now that I’ve been blogging for nearly four years about healthy low-carb living new people are finding my columns all the time. I’ve written over 2600 posts so there’s a lot of information I’ve put out there on the Internet for people to find out more about livin’ la vida low-carb. I consider it a true privilege to have the opportunity to share my success story with others and encourage them as they take this journey to better health for themselves. When I blog about the new low-carb research recipes news items and more I feel I am providing people a great service that they can apply to their own lives. And it’s FREE!But not everyone thinks my writings are worth reading.
