...Financial services, before the meltdown, represented about 15% of our server business; servers represent about 20% of our [total] business - so it's not significant overall. And it won't go to zero - everything I'm reading points to more, not less, regulation. That stuff is going to require tracking software. Sarbanes Oxley led to significantly more IT spending...
...annual emission of pollutants, such as particulates and smog-causing nitrogen oxide. If they do, the plant is required to take action to control the pollutants. But the Bush Administration wants to change the rule to focus instead on the hourly emission rate of pollution, instead of the total amount of emitted pollutants. That means that plant modifications that keep the hourly rate of emissions steady while increasing the overall amount of pollutants released would not trigger a review...
...Palin has shown her ability to connect with the conservative base, and she knows how to inspire donors to write checks. The McCain campaign raised $4.4 million in the first 12 hours after she debuted as his running mate, and by the end of that weekend, the total was $10 million.

Obama has also, according to CNN, won his home state of Illinois, plus Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Jersey, giving him a total of 102 electoral votes thus far. McCain, for his part, has been projected to win South Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee and Oklahoma, leaving him with a total of 34 electoral votes thus far. Key battleground states like Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina and Florida remain too close to call, as well as Indiana...
...even with years of planning, no one knows for sure what will happen at the precincts on Tuesday. One problem is predicting turnout. Election officials can guess at what will happen based on the number of total registered voters before the election and the rate of early or absentee votes. But they have to order machines and print ballots before voter registration and absentee voting end. This year in Virginia, Suleman and other officials are predicting 80% to 85% turnout, which would be unprecedented...
