GOP Palin Enthusiasm Seems To Be Fading

Thu, 18 Sep 2008 09:33:46 PDT
Barack Obama appears to have reversed his recent downward trend in several polls, coming out of a nosedive. But also of note is the fact that respondents identifying as Republicans in many of these surveys -- a metric that spiked to an unusually high degree right after McCain's selection of Alaska Gov.

Change?

Thu, 18 Sep 2008 16:43:19 PDT
The word of the day is "change" -- the political conventions are blaring it out, and apparently the voting public is ready for it. It's worth thinking about what "change" amounts to. Things change in many ways -- by accident, by the inevitable workings of natural processes, or as a result of the actions of people and groups. The eruption of Mt. Krakatoa in 1883 changed many things in the world, for better or worse. But this isn't what "change" means in this context. When people talk about "cha

‘Death Race’ Is a Car Wreck… In a Good Way Movie Review]

Fri, 22 Aug 2008 14:58:23 PDT
Unlike some people who bemoan Hollywood’s lack of creativity in spitting out an unprecedented amount of sequels and remakes each year, I understand why this is done. When you have a film that’s more than thirty years old, it totally makes sense to have it remade to take advantages of new trends, technology and tone available now. Of course, there are some films that really shouldn’t be remade in the sense that they just cannot be improved. Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho is one of the first ones t

The lives of Barack Obama: An interactive timeline

Fri, 22 Aug 2008 16:10:56 PDT
There are at least two versions of Barack Obama's life: There's his version—the story he tells in his speeches, op-eds, and books. Then there's the media's version—news articles, columns, and investigative pieces about him as he rose to prominence and since his presidential campaign began. We can learn a lot by comparing the two. To that end, Slate has compiled Obama's speeches, his writings, contemporary news accounts of his life, and recent retrospective articles to show how Obama's life l

Cadel Evans of Silence Lotto Gets Number One Bib For 2008 Tour de France
