CBC and Huffington Post use exact same photo. Huh. Written by Joel Johannesen Read Comments/Make Comments (There's 2 so far) The state-owned CBC miraculously used the same Barack/Biden picture for their excited news bulletin about their Barack’s choice for V.P., as one of CBC’s favorite sources for “fair and balanced”, “objective” political viewpoints for their Newsworld channel, the far-left Bush-hating conservative-bashing Huffington Post blog, in the HuffPo’s excited overnight
Why Our Brains Do Not Intuitively Grasp Probabilities: Scien
Fri, 29 Aug 2008 08:09:05 PDT
"Folk numeracy is our natural tendency to misperceive and miscalculate probabilities, to think anecdotally instead of statistically, and to focus on and remember short-term trends and small-number runs. We notice a short stretch of cool days and ignore the long-term global-warming trend. We note with consternation the recent downturn in the housing

There are leaders and followers in all aspects of life. Depending on the circumstances, any number of characteristics will dictate who (or what) is at the forefront. To be sure, "size" is often a key determinant, especially when it comes to economic matters. Business trends in the United States, for example, have often set the stage for similar developments elsewhere, at least in the past. Of course, one reason why this has been true is because of the vast resources the U.S. has had at its di
McCain Taking Daily Kos Advice
Sat, 30 Aug 2008 17:22:41 PDT
