Kid Nation premiered last Wednesday, and the show was, for lack of  a better term, fascinating. It was formulaic and, well, just plain bad. But it was also fascinating. In case you missed it, the premise revolves around sending 40 children to a ghost town in New Mexico for 40 days. The ages of the children range from 8-15, with the majority lying somewhere in the 10-12 range. Once there, the kids will have no supervision beyond that of a couple of camera crew and the host, Jonathan Karsh, who comes and goes randomly, but always to help the kids on their path.    There's all kinds of hullabaloo about whether or not it's ethical to take kids and simply drop them off in the middle of nowhere. Though they immediately showed the largest factor in the parents' decision to let these kids on to a TV show that could do a mind job on them for years: A gold star (cute) worth $20,000. A star is handed out by the "town council" at every meeting, so presumably about 5 kids will go home with prize money. My guess is that at least one of them will also win some ridiculous prize at the end of the show...say a million bucks.    I'd like to say that's where the show gets "better", but it doesn't. On this show no one gets voted off, and everyone's going home a winner.

The first question asked about any presidential debate is, who won. You won&#39;t find the answer here. That&#39;s up to every viewer.

Poor Michael McDowell. He picked quite a year to launch his candidacy for Raybestos Rookie of the Year.

More and more bloggers are waking to the news:  Lessig :   ...  "Bush has won the popular vote. And it would take a freak of nature to imagine the 220,000 provisional ballots would fall strongly enough to shift Ohio. He will win the College. He is our President - legitimately, and credibly."  "Our criticism of this administration must now focus narrowly and sharply: on the policies, not on the credibility of the man."  Joi Ito :  "As Larry says, "It's over. Let it go." Jon is saying, "Don't complain - organize!" Although the previous post about the wacky voting system is interesting, it's unlikely that any sort of recount or technicality will change the fact that today, the people of the Uni ...

NO ONE has any idea what will happen to stock markets this week because no one knows who will win the US election and, even if they did, they don&#39;t know what a victory for either candidate would mean.

Rats. I was pretty sure Manny Ram&#xED;rez was going to win the MVP award. Too bad he was topped by winner Justin Morneau, runner-up Derek Jeter, David Ortiz, and an ensemble cast of American League worthies.
