JANUARY 14, 2008: SLIPPING AND SLIDING
It was one of those slipping and sliding starts to our work week. Rain fell much of the day yesterday and continued through the night. Temperatures dropped overnight and that rain turned to snow. Roads that appeared wet turned icy as the mercury fell. Bridges and overpasses of course were first to freeze and �Black Ice� was a problem for many of the fender benders this morning.
Iowans: Not So Foolish!
But some readers may have a better answer. (Send them to Mickey underscore Kaus at msn dot com.) P.S.: Dellinger's response to point (1): Sure, I agree that at the outer margin (McCain 45, Dem 30, Republican 25) the House might crumble to popular McCain fever. But it would be tough to pull off such a landslide. One point for your argument -- Those numbers are percentages of electoral votes. If McCain actually got that percentage of popular votes--beating one major party candidate by 15% and the other by 20% (or anywhere close to that margin) he would very likely win an electoral vote landslide and avoid the House. Still, that is very, very tough. Much tougher than (merely) finishing first in the popular and electoral votes. Doesn't mean he won't try! 5:39 P.M.

TARGUSinfo adds VoiceStar, Leading Provider of Pay-Per-Phone-Call ...
VIENNA, Va., Nov. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- TARGUSinfo today announced that VoiceStar has selected On-Demand Identification(SM) services from TARGUSinfo to help maximize the impact of VoiceStar's pay-per-phone-call marketing programs. Pay-per-phone-call is a fast-growing online advertising method based on the same principles as pay-per-click. Instead of paying for Web visits, however, advertisers pay for phone calls triggered by their online advertisements. Pay-per-phone-call is increasingly popular among local service companies that don't have an e-commerce Web site or any Web site at all. VoiceStar, a Philadelphia-based pay-per-phone-call leader, is using TARGUSinfo services to enhance call-reporting data with consumer contact information. As a result, agents receive a verified name for each consumer inquiry before the call is connected.
Collier schools chief: Top students are unfairly dictating class ...
Is there any data to back this up? Is there ANY basis upon which to make this statement? There is SO much more that needs to be said here, but the administration doesn't want to hear it. They're playing a game with us called "divide and conquer." We need to all be united here, for the good of our children and the good of our society. .
