alternative to paint and wallpaper

[livejournal.com profile] knightlygoddess and I were just exchanging email about interior house painting and such and a google ad managed to catch my eye (quit a rarity, actually, that I even see them, much less click on them).


Here it is: Japanese Wall. For those looking to avoid the mess and environmental and health impacts of paint and wallpaper, or simply just want to have the perfect ninja home.

Passing on the word

from [livejournal.com profile] novapsyche



The national party voted to strip Michigan of delegates as a penalty, but party leaders in the electoral-vote rich state have expressed confidence that they will be seated at the convention.

None of the candidates, including Clinton, will be campaigning here, and none have authorized write-in campaigns–-which means that, under state law, their supporters cannot cast write-in votes for any of them.

But if at least 15 percent of the voters in a congressional district opt for the "uncommitted" option rather than voting for Clinton, delegates not bound to any candidate could attend the national convention--a development that could allow Edwards or Obama supporters to play a role in candidate selection there.



Personally I think disallowing write-in capaigns if they are not "authorized" is the biggest clusterfuck part of this. I mean, we're supposed to be able to do write in campaigns for *anyone*, aren't we?

Anyway, I will seriously consider voting for "uncommitted" in the primary on Tuesday.
