Sounds Good To Me
Here are some thoughts from incoming Chief Justice John Roberts:
Ensign said they discussed only one case specifically
Illogical
You’d think that when number two in the polls plays number four, and number two just barely wins, that’s exactly what would be expected, so the polls must have had it right, at least in terms of relative ranking.
So why did Ohio State drop to number nine?
The argument presumably is because they shouldn’t now be rated above so many teams with no losses, but the only reason those teams don’t have losses could be because they haven’t played Texas or USC (or Ohio State). I remember back in the eighties when number one and number two played each other during the season (I think it was Michigan and Iowa, but it might have been Michigan State and Iowa), and number one eked out a win against number two. By any consistent logic, they both should have retained their rankings. The fact that number two fell then, and tOSU fell today, is a testament to the fundamental irrationality of the process.
“Journalism”
Jeff Goldstein is (to put it mildly) less than impressed with hurricane coverage at Newsweek. I haven’t read the magazine in decades.

Speak For Yourself
Jake Gyllenhaal says that “…every man goes through a period of thinking they’re attracted to another guy.”
That’s the problem with the homosexuality debate. Everyone takes their own sensibilities and projects them onto everyone else. For the record, I’ve never “gone through a period of thinking that I was attracted to another guy,” so here’s where Mr. Gyllenhaal’s theory falls to the ground. Much of the debate over the innateness of sexual attraction occurs among people who are to some degree bisexual (which is why so many think it’s a “choice,” since for them it is, and so they assume it is for everyone). But for me, and pure homosexuals, it is clearly not.
Another Casualty Of Shuttle-Derived Vehicles?
If this story is true, it looks like Prometheus is dead. No nuclear propulsion for the foreseeable future.
This part, though, is a little puzzling:
NASA had hoped to develop the nuclear propulsion system to carry spacecraft beyond the solar system, according to a June 19 story in the Times Union.
That’s news to me. I thought the program’s purpose was to enable easier exploration of the solar system, not to go beyond it.
