		<description><![CDATA[Like many people in Information Retrieval related fields I have been keeping a close eye on FiveThirtyEight.com. The owner has put together a fairly sophisticated and so far accurate model of electoral behavior based on past trends, polling data, and some other demographic and statistical information. Over the past month since Palin was allowed to [...]]]></description>

His name is Sean Michael McCoy originally from Bulverde, Texas and he is a freshman General Studies major, his email is beefcake08@neo.tamu.edu and his [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is a footnote to the PHD Comic for 9/12/2008 it says:
 Thanks to everyone at CERN who talked to me and to EPFL for inviting me to Switzerland. A shout-out also to the folks at the Texas A&#038;M Cyclotron Institute for showing me their facilities and getting me started on this topic.

		<description><![CDATA[So on a June 20th of last year I made my predictions for the 2008 race. McCain/Huckabee and Edwards/Biden. While I was wrong, much to my surprise and delight, about Edwards. Looks like I did get the VP for the Dems (in addition to the Rep Presidential nominee). I&#8217;m still crossing my fingers on the [...]]]></description>

The program ends and a new one called &#8220;The UFO Hunters&#8221; starts. The topic of today&#8217;s episode is reverse engineering of alien technology.

I do not wear American Flag pins, I don&#8217;t blindly follow the President, and I don&#8217;t see America as flawless. I am a Patriot by the true American sense, by the founding fathers sense.

It was a grandfather-grandchild photo which is slightly outside the rules, but not so bad. The really bad part was the number of votes. 1.4 million.
