More On Poll Challenges (Oct 31 2004 19:59 GMT) - Judges To Rule On Possible Poll Challenges The question now is whether the party may raise challenges at the polls to question an individual voter's eligibility. At issue are thousands of names on the rolls in Ohio that the GOP calls suspect because political mail sent to the voters' listed addresses could not be delivered. Three Ohio judges take up various aspects of the question Monday, one day before the election. A judge in an unlikely quarter -- faraway New Jersey -- could also rule on whether the poll challenges contemplated in Ohio should be outlawed nationally. To read more,... |

Prezidentské volby na Ukrajině nemají jasného vítěze (Oct 31 2004 19:57 GMT) - [Novinky.cz] - Ani jeden z hlavních uchazečů o úřad ukrajinského prezidenta, premiér Viktor Janukovyč a opoziční vůdce Viktor Juščenko, nezískal podle odhadů získaných v neděli u východů z volebních místností potřebnou nadpoloviční většinu hlasů. Vítěz proto zřejmě vzejde až z druhého kola voleb, které se má konat 21. listopadu. |

Damned if you do, damned if you don't (Oct 31 2004 19:56 GMT) - Business enterprises are often attacked for selling people 'junk food' and not telling them about the health benefits of vegetables. Well recently ASDA (the British arm of Walmart) labelled its vegetables, explaining that people who eat certain types of vegetable have a lower chance of developing certain forms of cancer. ASDA was promptly prosecuted and punished. It seems that 'making health claims' is not legal in Britain. Oh well, back to selling junk. |

How capitalism grows human capital as well the example of Hong Kong (Oct 31 2004 19:56 GMT) - Last Friday, on another blog, I did a link-to/short-comment-on piece, linking to and commenting on this report. It was about Chinese students lying about their qualifications in order to get into British Universities. Harry Hutton (esteemed writer of this hugely entertaining and clearly much frequented blog) added the following very interesting comment to my posting: It's a big problem with the IELTS exam in mainland China people turn up to do tests for other... |

Installing things on windows [Simon Raybould] (Oct 31 2004 19:55 GMT) - Hi all.... on Linux this is a piece of cake, but I need to play on Windows for a while.... I have some software installed on a machine which I need to install on a second machine. I've lost the "installation prog" (you know what I mean I'm sure!) so I don't have a clue about how to go about copying things over. |

I had a thought (Oct 31 2004 19:55 GMT) - For things like presidential elections. Have an event where you get all the candiates sat on a stage with electrodes attached to them. In the audience have 100 randomly selected people with buttons. Each candidate is asked questions about where they stand on various issues, maybe a week before the voters could be given the opportunity to send in questions then someone works out what the most popular issues are and combine those questions to form the questions asked. The 100 audience members with buttons are told that if they think a candidate is avoiding a question, waffling, lying or just generally trying to mislead people then they should push the button and release it when they think the candidate has got back on question, stopped waffling &c. |
