The Guggenheim : Cai Guo-Qiang
This show looks insane, horrifying and fantastic. See the links below.
Bio in brief: Cai Guo-Qiang was born in 1957 in Quanzhou City, Fujian Province, China. The son of a historian and painter, Cai was trained in stage design at the Shanghai Drama Institute from 1981 to 1985 and his work has, since the outset, been scholarly and often politically charged. Having accomplished himself across a variety of media, Cai initially began working with gunpowder to foster spontaneity and confront the suppression that he felt from the controlled artistic tradition and social climate in China at the time. While living in Japan from 1986 to 1995, Cai explored the properties of gunpowder in his drawings, an inquiry that eventually led to his experimentation with explosives on a massive scale, and the development of his signature explosion events, exemplified in his series, Projects for Extraterrestrials. These explosion projects, both wildly poetic and ambitious at their core, aim to establish an exchange between viewers and the larger universe around them.

House Democrats abruptly pulled an ethics reform proposal from consideration yesterday after widespread opposition surfaced from lawmakers on both sides of the aisle a day before a scheduled vote on the plan.
The proposal, months in the making, would create a new Office of Congressional Ethics run by a bipartisan group of six non-lawmakers with the power to review ethics complaints against members and staff, and forward them to the existing Committee on Standards of Official Conduct. The fate of the plan is now unclear, though Democrats vowed they would revisit the issue soon.

Some Obama facts (thanks Amy)
In Illinois, he sponsored over 800 bills.
On the federal level, in his short time, he passed a decent amount of legistlation, in a bi-partisan manner>. His first year in the U.S. Senate, he authored 152 bills and co-sponsored another 427. Mind you, not many passed with that idiot Republican and limpy Demcratic Senate in his way, but that's a lot of bills. The big ones are:
- the Coburn-Obama Government Transparency Act of 2006 (became law)
- The Lugar-Obama Nuclear Non-proliferation and Conventional Weapons Threat Reduction Act,(became law)
- The Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act, passed the Senate
- The 2007 Government Ethics Bill,(became law)
- The Protection Against Excessive Executive Compensation Bill,(In committee
More about his record can be found here, here, here, and here.
Finally, to learn details of his entire plan for the country should he become president you can go to his website. You can also download his Blueprint for Change here (WARNING: Large substantial 64 page PDF).

Iran, Conversation Anyone?
BUSH: Nuke-less Iran remains dangerous
http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/12/04/iran.nuclear/index.html
Some Comments Posted today from this article:
I am far from a liberal and to be honest I did vote for Bush in the last election, but with yet another embarrassing defeat of our intelligence I can't helped but feel ashamed. This is the second time people that we have allowed ourselves to washed in lies from our government regarding foreign nations and their weapons capabilities. I do not feel as though we should totally discredit Iran as a threat, but I also cannot stand for us ruining our world imagine by sticking our foot in our mouth yet again. We look like complete jackasses over the past 5 years, we have declared victory in Iraq after one week and are still there, sworn now that not one but two countries had nukes, and have tarnished Americans great reputation of being a fair and intelligent government. I just hope that the liberal and conservative bashing can stop long enough for us to examine our problems and repair this country, because we need some serious transformations in foreign policy, economy, and homeland security.
Oh yeah, the US should still invade Iran. They may not have nukes, but I heard there's this one guy in their military that can throw rocks really far. If he stands on a hill, look out. Probably can get pretty close to Israel from what I hear. Beware the rock throwing Iranians! I hear they bite too!
"What the president said makes good sense to me. Iran is developing weapons grade materials that could be used in a nuclear bomb. They have sworn to eradicate Israel and do whatever they can to wipe out the US and other Christian countries. Ironically, Iran is also a threat to its Arab neighbors in the middle east. We shouldn't stick our heads in the sand because of our political positions. We need to work together to see that Iran does not get a bomb or the means to deliver it."
"Hmmm... I'm no Constitutional scholar but... isn't there a provision in our Constitution regarding not being able to force a President to turn over office during a time of war? So, what happens if Bush manages to get an official war declaration before his term ends and then manages to prolong it indefinitely? Wouldn't the only means of removing him be a vote of impeachment?

Some Comments Posted today from this article:
I am far from a liberal and to be honest I did vote for Bush in the last election, but with yet another embarrassing defeat of our intelligence I can't helped but feel ashamed. This is the second time people that we have allowed ourselves to washed in lies from our government regarding foreign nations and their weapons capabilities. I do not feel as though we should totally discredit Iran as a threat, but I also cannot stand for us ruining our world imagine by sticking our foot in our mouth yet again. We look like complete jackasses over the past 5 years, we have declared victory in Iraq after one week and are still there, sworn now that not one but two countries had nukes, and have tarnished Americans great reputation of being a fair and intelligent government. I just hope that the liberal and conservative bashing can stop long enough for us to examine our problems and repair this country, because we need some serious transformations in foreign policy, economy, and homeland security.
Oh yeah, the US should still invade Iran. They may not have nukes, but I heard there's this one guy in their military that can throw rocks really far. If he stands on a hill, look out. Probably can get pretty close to Israel from what I hear. Beware the rock throwing Iranians! I hear they bite too!
"What the president said makes good sense to me. Iran is developing weapons grade materials that could be used in a nuclear bomb. They have sworn to eradicate Israel and do whatever they can to wipe out the US and other Christian countries. Ironically, Iran is also a threat to its Arab neighbors in the middle east. We shouldn't stick our heads in the sand because of our political positions. We need to work together to see that Iran does not get a bomb or the means to deliver it."

The story of Pinkberry's success is really about the chain's image as a design brand. "In my stores, I serve you a $5 dessert, and I let you sit in $500 chairs," says Lee of the Philippe Starck Victoria Ghost chairs in every Pinkberry outlet. "People can tell the difference." They're eating it up right now, but will they still if Pinkberry becomes as ubiquitous as, say, Starbucks?

Romeny: "I want to make sure that we maintain our religious heritage in this country, not a particular of faith, if you will, not of a particular sect or denomination, but rather the great moral heritage that we have that's so critical to the future of this country," Romney said. "So, I'll be talking about faith in America -- not my own faith in America -- and of course I'll answer the obligatory questions, as he did."
