STOP McCAIN IN FLORIDA
To the extent that I understand how most Republicans think, it would seem that former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani comes closer to the Republican ideal than any of the other viable Republican candidates. They are all good and decent men who would be better for America than either of the Democratic front-runners. But it is difficult to see, from a conservative- and Republican-values perspective, what major shortcoming Giuliani brings as compared to the other candidates. And given the obsession of liberal news media with publishing negative reports about Giuliani and frequent praise of John McCain, it would appear that it is Giuliani whom Democrats most fear as the Republican presidential nominee. On the "war on terror," no Republican contender but John McCain equals Giuliani in longtime efforts on behalf of that war or in understanding and articulating the threat radical Islam poses to America and to liberty on earth.

Between the Lines Latest Post | Last 10 Posts | Archives Ohmigod! Social networkers just can't take it any more! Posted in: General Social networking Guest post: Chris Matyszczyk parses the latest numbers from ComScore on social network activity. While looking for something that amused me and stopped me from replying to the likeness quiz invitation (and seventy others) from lonely Japanese friends on Facebook, I stumbled upon some numbers from ComScore via Creative Capital. They seem to suggest that social networking might have suffered something of a peak. Since October, MySpace seems to have lost 3 million unique visitors. And while Facebook's numbers still appear to be going up, they're creeping rather than leaping.
Airborne Bacteria Make It Rain, Researchers Find
The sky is not an ethereal, sterile realm. It's teeming with bacteria, and scientists say that the microbes play a powerful role in producing rain and snow. While the idea that bacteria could prompt precipitation was previously known, a paper published this week in Science shows that they're more important than anyone expected. Researchers led by Louisiana State University microbiologist Brent Christner analyzed snow samples from around the world, categorizing the content of their "nucleators" -- tiny particles that help water vapor coalesce and freeze. All snow and most rain begins as ice. Though water is widely thought to have a freezing point of zero degrees Celsius, it's not so simple in the clouds, where pristine vapors only bind to form ice crystals at exceedingly cold temperatures.

Daily Report
Sawyer's campaign struck back at Pat Bergeron, a political consultant who publishes lanewslink.com, a roundup of news items from around the state, along with original reporting and commentary. Sawyer says Bergeron approached Lee Fletcher, his campaign consultant and asked about doing business with the campaign. Sawyer says he refused to work with Bergeron and alleged the Abramoff story was produced by one of the campaigns that hired him. Sawyer asked any campaign to disclose their financial dealings with Bergeron. "Louisiana voters are completely fed up with 'slash and burn' politics like the political filth we see on this Web site," he says. Bergeron denies approaching Sawyer or Fletcher for consulting work. "Those allegations are insane," he says. He defended the reporting in the lanewslink.com item, saying Sawyer took trips with Abramoff.
GCC has global investment and development magnet promise, says ULI ...
Speaking ahead of this week's ULI conference in Abu Dhabi, Todd Mansfield, the Institute's Chairman, says the world-wide development industry has now woken up to the opportunities the Gulf Co-operation Countries and United Arab Emirates now hold out. 'The rest of the world is absolutely aware of the real estate investment and development potential of the region, which holds enormous promise as a global magnet for investment and development,' said Mansfield. But the ULI Chairman emphasized that the region must embrace sustainable development if it is going to compete on the world stage. 'While every market is different, cities and regions around the globe are sharing growing concerns over sustainability,' said Mansfield. 'These sustainability issues include concerns over managing population growth, responding to demographic changes, building enough affordable housing, improving transportation and other infrastructure, and protecting the environment.
Six years later, how has Hezbollah used and manipulated the media?
His introductory remarks, reminiscent of an Oscar acceptance speech, offered profuse thanks to the media for its wartime efforts in aiding Hezbollah: In the name of God, the merciful, the compassionate. First of all and in the name of the resistance I would like to thank you as well as the television management and all workers, journalists, and media men in this establishment for the large efforts you made during the war. You, just like other institutions — to be fair to all — were our voice and the voice of the resistance men and steadfast people who want glory, dignity, and loftiness for this country. Of course, any words of thanks to you and all those who acted in solidarity with the resistance in this war fall short of what should be said but they must be said. Thank you.
