Because I did such a poor job of describing STV to Paras and Percy last night... here is a (fun!) animation:

BC STV

That's the method they were trying to get going in BC, although if they were to use a system with one MLA/MP per riding, it would be more similar to the method the SU uses. Although if you read a bit about it, it does confuse a person more than our existing system... so like you were saying Paras, that's probably why the voters didn't put it in.

sssshhhhh.......don't tell......

Why the Colbert Report is coming to the Comedy Network on Monday:

Formidable Opponent - Colbert debates himself. And wins.

It's not getting much play here, but for the curious, here's a look at the current Paris suburb riots, courtesy Wikipedia.

yo, Jsese; just outta curiousity what's the pay, and what are the hours?

If anyone is looking for work, even for a little while. I know that we need people desperatly at the Science shop. If you can deal with selling anithing from a 25 cent mini dice to a $500 telescope with anything in between. It is not too much work, but you will be busy. So, if anyone has any free time and wants to make some christmas money. Any time you can work would work, but we really need people during the day. If anyone is interested, post here, or call me, or stop by the science shop and say you are a friend of mine. thats about all you need to do if you want the job. ciao

Sounds like the Prime Minister needs to start wearing a fedora and a cape again.

Canadian politics still equals boring to me.

Sounds like Harper is being fairly critical of the whole system… which is a fairly Harper thing to do. I don’t know if I would call him a genius though, since quite a few other people have figured out the system isn’t the greatest.
