"The Race Is Just Getting Hot"
"The Race Is Just Getting Hot" --- 11: 52 a.m. On the Record w/ Greta Van Susteren
on the floor of the RNC after the McCain speech
Here are the "current" players ...
Republican vice presidential candidate Alaska Governor Sarah Palin blows a kiss to her family during her address at the 2008 Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minnesota September 3, 2008 
Right now as I compose this post after midnight, On the Record w/ Greta Van Susteren asserted that "CBS has Obama and McCain at a dead even."
Moreover, On the Record also asserted that there's a rumor that Obama might drop Biden for one Hillary Clinton.
Gee, I'm no political strategist ... but if I played basketball and I wanted a "slam dunk" I wouldn't worry about being the star and I'd focus on the team and pass the ball to Hillary so she could take it to the house ... (White House = that is)!!! ... yeah, even now ...
BEAVER, PA - AUGUST 29: Democratic U.S. Presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) (2nd-L) speaks as Democratic U.S. Vice-Presidential nominee Joe Biden (D-DE)(2nd-R), his wife Jill Biden (L) and Michelle Obama (R) look on at Irvine Park August 29, 2008 in Beaver, Pennsylvania. Obama is campaigning the day after the Democratic Convention and officially becoming the first African-American nominated as a candidate for U.S. president by a major party.
ST. PAUL, MN - SEPTEMBER 04: Republican U.S presidential nominee U.S. Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) gives the thumbs up during day four of the Republican National Convention (RNC) at the Xcel Energy Center on September 4, 2008 in St. Paul, Minnesota. U.S. Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) will accept the GOP nomination for U.S. President Thursday night.
This gazebo where Obama spoke they very next day after "the speech" at the DNC was built for the town of Beaver, PA for for and by the movie Gung Ho starring Pittsburgh's own Michael Keaton. I wonder who he's voting for, BTW?

Physicists Discover 'Doubly Strange' Particle = (Doubly Important Because It's Like The Building Blocks of Matter)
Once produced, the decay of the Omega-sub-b (Ωb) proceeds like fireworks. The particle travels about a millimeter before it disintegrates into two intermediate particles called J/Psi (J/ψ) and Omega-minus (Ω-). The J/Psi then promptly decays into a pair of muons. The Omega-minus baryon, on the other hand, can travel several centimeters before decaying into yet another unstable particle called a Lambda (Λ) baryon along with a long-lived particle called kaon (K). The Lambda baryon, which has no electric charge, also can travel several centimeters prior to decaying into a proton (p) and a pion (Ï€). (Credit: DZero collaboration)ScienceDaily (Sep. 4, 2008) — Physicists of the DZero experiment at the U.S. Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have discovered a new particle made of three quarks, the Omega-sub-b (Ωb).
The particle contains two strange quarks and a bottom quark (s-s-b). It is an exotic relative of the much more common proton and weighs about six times the proton mass.
The discovery of the doubly strange particle brings scientists a step closer to understanding exactly how quarks form matter and to completing the "periodic table of baryons." Baryons (derived from the Greek word "barys," meaning "heavy") are particles that contain three quarks, the basic building blocks of matter. The proton comprises two up quarks and a down quark (u-u-d).

Baryons (derived from the Greek word "barys," meaning "heavy") are particles that contain three quarks, the basic building blocks of matter. The proton comprises two up quarks and a down quark (u-u-d).
Combing through almost 100 trillion collision events produced by the Tevatron particle collider at Fermilab, the DZero collaboration found 18 incidents in which the particles emerging from a proton-antiproton collision revealed the distinctive signature of the Omega-sub-b. Once produced, the Omega-sub-b travels about a millimeter before it disintegrates into lighter particles. Its decay, mediated by the weak force, occurs in about a trillionth of a second.
Theorists predicted the mass of the Omega-sub-b baryon to be in the range of 5.9 to 6.1 GeV/c2. The DZero collaboration measured its mass to be 6.165 ± 0.016 GeV/c2. The particle has the same electric charge as an electron and has spin J=1/2.
The Omega-sub-b is the latest and most exotic discovery of a new type of baryon containing a bottom quark at the Tevatron particle collider at Fermilab. Its discovery follows the observation of the Cascade-b-minus baryon (Ξb-), first observed by the DZero experiment in 2007, and two types of Sigma-sub-b baryons (Σb), discovered by the CDF experiment at Fermilab in 2006.
"The observation of the doubly strange b baryon is yet another triumph of the quark model," said DZero cospokesperson Dmitri Denisov, of Fermilab. "Our measurement of its mass, production and decay properties will help to better understand the strong force that binds quarks together."
According to the quark model, invented in 1961 by theorists Murray Gell-Mann and Yuval Ne'eman as well as George Zweig, the four quarks up, down, strange and bottom can be arranged to form 20 different spin-1/2 baryons. Scientists now have observed 13 of these combinations.
"The measurement of the mass of the Omega-sub-b provides a great test of computer calculations using lattice quantum chromodynamics," said Fermilab theorist Andreas Kronfeld. "The discovery of this particle is an example of all the wonderful results pouring out of accelerator laboratories over the past few years."
The Omega-sub-b is a relative of the famous and "even stranger" Omega-minus, which is made of three strange quarks (s-s-s).
"After the discovery of the Omega-minus, people started to accept that quarks really exist," said DZero co-spokesperson Darien Wood, of Northeastern University. "Its discovery, made with a bubble chamber at Brookhaven National Laboratory in 1964, is the textbook example of the predictive power of the quark model."

Wolves Would Rather Eat Salmon
Although most people imagine wolves chasing deer and other hoofed animals, new research suggests that, when they can, wolves actually prefer fishing to hunting. (Credit: iStockphoto)ScienceDaily (Sep. 4, 2008) — Although most people imagine wolves chasing deer and other hoofed animals, new research suggests that, when they can, wolves actually prefer fishing to hunting. The study shows that when salmon is available, wolves will reduce deer hunting activity and instead focus on seafood.
Chris Darimont from the University of Victoria and the Raincoast Conservation Foundation, Canada, led a team of researchers who studied the feeding habits of wolves in a remote 3,300km2 area of British Columbia. As Darimont describes, "Over the course of four years, we identified prey remains in wolf droppings and carried out chemical analysis of shed wolf hair in order to determine what the wolves like to eat at various times of year".
For most of the year, the wolves tend to eat deer, as one would expect. During the autumn, however, salmon becomes available and the wolves shift their culinary preferences. According to the authors, "One might expect that wolves would move onto salmon only if their mainstay deer were in short supply. Our data show that this is not the case, salmon availability clearly outperformed deer availability in predicting wolves' use of salmon."
This work gives researchers as much insight into salmon ecology as wolf ecology. Darimont's mentor and co-author Thomas Reimchen, also of the University of Victoria, admits, "Salmon continue to surprise us, showing us new ways in which their oceanic migrations eventually permeate entire terrestrial ecosystems. In terms of providing food and nutrients to a whole food web, we like to think of them as North America's answer to the Serengeti's wildebeest."
The authors explain that the wolves' taste for fishy fare is likely based on safety, nutrition and energetics. Darimont said, "Selecting benign prey such as salmon makes sense from a safety point of view. While hunting deer, wolves commonly incur serious and often fatal injuries. In addition to safety benefits we determined that salmon also provides enhanced nutrition in terms of fat and energy".
The research also warns that this already vestigial predator-prey relationship – one that once spread from California to Alaska – might not be around forever. Darimont cautions, "There are multiple threats to salmon systems, including overexploitation by fisheries and the destruction of spawning habitats, as well as diseases from exotic salmon aquaculture that collectively have led to coast-wide declines of up to 90% over the last century".

Massive Canada Arctic ice shelf breaks away
An undated photo from the Center for Northern Studies shows the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf disintegrating. The incredibly rapid rate at which Canada's Arctic ice shelves are disappearing is an early indicator of the 'very substantial changes' that global warming will impose on all mankind, a top scientist said on Wednesday. (Denis Sarrazin/Center for Northern Studies/Handout/Reuters) OTTAWA (Reuters) - A huge 19 square mile (55 square km) ice shelf in Canada's northern Arctic broke away last month and the remaining shelves have shrunk at a "massive and disturbing" rate, the latest sign of accelerating climate change in the remote region, scientists said on Tuesday.
They said the Markham Ice Shelf, one of just five remaining ice shelves in the Canadian Arctic, split away from Ellesmere Island in early August. They also said two large chunks totaling 47 square miles had broken off the nearby Serson Ice Shelf, reducing it in size by 60 percent.
"The changes ... were massive and disturbing," said Warwick Vincent, director of the Centre for Northern Studies at Laval University in Quebec.
Temperatures in large parts of the Arctic have risen far faster than the global average in recent decades, a development that experts say is linked to global warming.
"These substantial calving events underscore the rapidity of changes taking place in the Arctic," said Derek Mueller, an Arctic ice shelf specialist at Trent University in Ontario.
"These changes are irreversible under the present climate and indicate that the environmental conditions that have kept these ice shelves in balance for thousands of years are no longer present," he said in an e-mailed statement from the research team sent late on Tuesday.
Mueller said the total amount of ice lost from the shelves along Ellesmere Island this summer totaled 83 square miles -- more than three times the area of Manhattan island.
The figure is more than 10 times the amount of ice shelf cover that scientists estimated on July 30 would vanish from around the island this summer.
"Reduced sea ice conditions and unusually high air temperatures have facilitated the ice shelf losses," said Luke Copland of the University of Ottawa.

KAPPA DELTA Sister = Lara Spencer of The Insider: Former "Lady Lion" diver = (and that helps explain the Smoking Red HOT body) ...
Born as Lara Christine Von Seelen, Spencer is a native of Garden City, New York. She was a competitive diver and graduated in 1991 from Penn State University, where she studied communications.As was my wife who graduated in 1994 Lara Christine Von Seelen - Spencer was a

Former Lady Lion diver Lara von Seelen, a 1991 graduate, is an ABC news correspondent. She attributes her television success to Craig Brown's influence on her life.
"I had no confidence when I got to Penn State," von Seelen said. "I was so insecure. But his belief in me was contagious -- he was the best coach of my life."
Von Seelen's mother, Carolyn, agrees wholeheartedly that her daughter's confidence on television stems from Brown. The emotion is very apparent when speaking of her daughter's former coach.
"I think he is one of the finest men you could ever meet," she said. "He gives kids direction -- he is a coach and a friend."
The way that Brown has touched Lara von Seelen's life is the reason he has stayed in a profession that gives him minimal free time and very little in the way of financial rewards. Even though he doesn't like to make plans for too far in the future, Brown said he'll definitely remain a fixture around the Penn State pool for quite a while. He knows that as long as he continues to make a difference in his diver's lives than everything he puts into his career is worth it.

Lara Spencer has a totally Smoking RED HOT body = A+++ +++(+)...being a "Lady Lion" diver must have helped cultivate it...
Lara Spencer Takes Over Insider Hosting DutiesLara Spencer has signed a multi-year deal to be the sole host of the syndicated entertainment news series The Insider beginning in the fall. Along with the hosting duties, Spencer will move to Los Angeles, where the show will be based. The show will also appear in high definition starting in September.
THE INSIDER is produced and distributed by CBS Television Distribution in Studio City, Calif. Linda Bell Blue is Executive Producer. Lara Spencer is Anchor; Pat O'Brien, Victoria Recano, Cojo, and Cheryl Woodcock are Correspondents. CBS Television Distribution is a unit of CBS Corp.
...even though I am a Julie Chen man when it comes to CBS, because Lara Spencer has such an engaging & dynamic delivery when it comes to verbal and non verbal communications = and the fact that my wife, one of Lara's KAPPA DELTA sisters, liked her at Penn State University and still finds her likable = I am considering Lara Spencer for my 2009 Top Hottest 75 Women of the New Everyday Media on http://www.mystrawhat.com/ for my next e-book: the New Everyday Media to be released during the first part of the new year ............

Palestra.Net: Not Just for College Kids = Beyond University ....
OK, so, yeah... We'd all like to go back to University ... sure ...
--- Even for me where Penn State University and State College didn't seem so big anymore and seemed to close-in on me and I couldn't wait to get out of town and go chill out some where for a while to really digest it all and clear my head to truly move on = I've been back to Happy Valley at aleast once a year since then ...
There's something about the energy of University that's so sexxy in every way that people everywhere love it and miss it and oft times try and get back to it or recapture it and someway ...
For me it was where the immaterial and material world collided and blended like a "French '77" from the Adams Apple @ The Tavern in good old State College, PA
After catching Tiffany Wilson on Fox & Friends Weekend and then googling Palestra.net, I was pleasantly surprised by most of what I found. The content is well organized, savvy and, at times, even presented in a "popping" fashion.
Of course, just as my wife automatically assumed the reason why I was intersted in a college oriented site ...
it's like Palestra.net's founders, workers, reporters, staff and contributors just couldn't get enough and needed to find a brilliant, mature, rational way to stay-in-touch and live the lifestyle we all still dream about = and make a decen't, credible, respectable living doing so...
Isn't life grand when it's not what you do or who you are that defines you = but how you do what you do?
Palestra.net is beyond University ...
For me it's like the college world and the real world has collided and blended like a "French '77" from the Adams Apple @ The Tavern in good old State College, PA
Palestra.net is the college network-- an online home for everything college students care about. From music to sports, news, entertainment, politics, fashion and even weather, our network of paid student reporters covers it all.
The network was founded in 2006 by a group of former local TV sports guys in Columbus, OH who realized that the media was moving away from the half-hour evening TV newscast to an online and on-demand world.
The goal was simple: build a network of on-campus reporters that would provide students an opportunity to work as paid journalists, while creating unique, entertaining and diverse content for an audience of their peers.
Today, the network has grown to nearly 100 schools and more than 120 student reporters. Reporters have covered every BCS bowl game, college basketball's Final Four, the Super Bowl, the Sundance Film Festival, the Bonarroo Music Festival and events held by every major 2008 presidential candidate. Our student reporters have filed stories from all 48 continental states.
Palestra.net is a content partner of Fox News Channel and Fox Business Channel providing student reporters opportunities to appear on both TV networks.
Beginning in late summer 2008, Palestra.net will launch a content partnership with Fox Sports Interactive, providing our reporters one more national platform on which to showcase their work.
This fall, reporters from some of the nation's best business schools will begin covering campus-related business stories for Palestra.net and the Fox Business Channel.

After packing a 1993 Isuzu Amigo full of what was left of Dan’s college experience, he headed to Columbus, Ohio to work in the mind-numbing, non-creative world of corporate video. In efforts to escape this world, Dan spent his free time making music videos for local artists and exploring the world of online video. Jeff Hopson, a good friend and BBQ enthusiast, was aware of Dan’s creative appetite and introduced him to Palestra.net ... a place that welcomed creativity, passion, and a DIY attitude. Finally, Dan was given the opportunity to wear a tool belt and use a hammer. From here on out, Dan joined a team of people everyday to build the sweetest tree house possible. Now, Dan spends his free time exploring hot sauce, cooling off with a pale ale, and standing next to his lady friend, Robin.
