By Kevin Clark  Once in a while you might read a story from My St. Johns Sun and it evokes a reaction.  Be that reaction surprise, anger, glee, etc., we know some of you are moved enough to respond to what you've read.

KERRY O&#39;BRIEN: Reading the electorate&#39;s mood has been no easy matter since the Latham ascendancy. And voters rarely seem to show their true intent these days until an election campaign is in full swing.

I've got an Obama poster in the right margin of the home page of Scripting News. It'll stay there for the duration as a virtual equivalent of one of those signs people put on their front lawns. I live in California, one of the Super Tuesday states and I'm an Obama voter. That's what the poster means. Pass it on.  After Google indexes Scripting News, this query will have exactly one match. Right now it has none. Let's load up Google with lots of blogs with Californians voting for Obama. And of course every other state in the union.  PS: This is where I got the poster.

In this new posting over on Chris Shiflett's weblog today, he mainly talks about the election just past, but he also shows how he abuses GD to display imagry of who/what the population voted on.

One of the problems with the American Presidency is that it tends to eclipse the entire rest of the government in the public eye. People often seem to almost view the Presidency as if it were the government, rather than just one component of many within the government. In particular, the Presidential election is the only one it is possible to get many people to care about. Voter turnout drops precipitously for those elections where the Presidency is not on the ballot; and on those years where it is, the media coverage for the elections of other offices is almost entirely drowned out in the obsessive coverage of the Presidential campaign. But these other elections are no less important, and in many cases are more so. Despite the neglect they receive these elections are just as critical to our democratic process. By ignoring these elections, our nation is closing its eyes to the bulk of that part of government that affects us on a day to day basis. So what I would like to do is open up the floor and ask: What's happening in the local, non-presidential elections in your area this November?What are the important races (Senators, ballot referendums, etc) and what has been happening in them? What is your perspective on these? Let us know. If your familiarity with local politics is less than complete, Project Vote Smart offers a great deal of information on American elections and is a good place to get started.

Tycho: Sorry about that. Kiko digests the audio files for that, and I forgot that there President's Day was a holiday that people took seriously. Before today, I was not aware just how seriously Kiko took the concept of presidency. Also, I fixed an offensive and aggressively stupid typographical error in the post above. Now, it's only aggressively stupid in the ways I originally intended.(CW)TB

There is another election this week. The issues are not war, taxes, morals or international credibility. They are microbes, diseases, data and international credibility.

The Lab judging panel will be busy this weekend picking a winner in the speak-to-the-Prime-Designer contest. (You can still enter today.) As they toil tirelessly, let us ponder this designerâs ethics, and whether it&#8217;s better to live in simulated joy or be really miserable. The posthuman Prime Designer may not care much what our puny [...].

Carrie A. Moore's article (May 19) discussing Postmormon.org painted a warm and fuzzy picture of the Web site and its contents. So, I decided to look into the site myself.
