We took a few minutes today on our trip home from Sault Ste. Marie to pull off Interstate 75 just north of the Mackinac Bridge to view up close this engineering marvel. I think I have traveled over the bridge fifteen times in my life, but I never really paused to study the longest suspension bridge between anchorages in the Western Hemisphere. This bridge carried over four million vehicles per year on journeys between Michigan’s Upper and Lower Peninsulas.
On the north shore of the Straits of Mackinac just before the bridge’s toll booth there is a visitor center with some detailed information on the construction of the Mackinac Bridge. Five workers died during the construction of the 5-mile-long causeway and bridge, and the $99 million construction cost of the bridge – which opened in 1957 – would translate into over $700 million in inflation-adjusted U.S. dollars today.

Sharon Rocha has every right to be outraged that Scott Peterson has the ability to blog while in prison on death row (“Laci Peterson’s Mom Outraged Over Son-In-Law’s Blog”). In fact, every American should be outraged! When you are convicted of murdering your wife and unborn son, you should lose your right to communicate with the outside world, family blog included.
In order to have an orderly society where taking responsibility for your actions is paramount, we as Americans must alter the manner in which we treat our criminals: The amount of tax dollars we waste on feeding, clothing, educating, and attempting to rehabilitate people who have committed horrendous crimes is ludicrous. When a person is convicted of a violent crime, as Scott Peterson was, he/she should be put to death in a timely fashion.

Massachusetts Senate Race Exit Polls
Massachusetts Senate Race Exit Polls, Here is your live viewing thread for the Scott Brown, Martha Coakley Massachusetts Senate election vote count. Exit polls and winner declared here on election day, Tuesday January 19th, 2010, as the candidates stump furiously on the final day of a short campaign. Watch the returns with us on our participatory live blog session.
massachusetts senate election exit polls
So much of this special election race has been written here and elsewhere. Scan our homepage for the bones of such punditry, from Brown’s sexy magazine centerfold to Coakley mistaking Curt Shilling for a Yankee fan. Now let’s get it on. What do the exit polls say about who won and what does it mean for other races?
The MA election result will be talked up as a bellwether event in the history of the 2010 midterm election. Like a canary in a coal mine, we will know a lot about where the two parties stand after the MA winner is declared by our elections desk. Is this the end of Obama’s agenda in Washington? Was socialism too much for the American people to swallow or will he press on like an ideological warrior? What if Çoakley wins?
Voting booths in Massachusetts open at 7am eastern time and close at 8pm local time, barring the usual shenanigans by partisan judges to keep certain friendly polling locations open later. We will follow all the days’ news live so join us today, January 19th for the final resolution of an interesting senate race betweenMartha Coakley and Scott Brown.
See the recent polls showing late deciders apparently breaking for Scott Brown.
You may predict the winner all the way up until polls close at 8pm Tuesday.
We will be bringing you MA exit polls data in this thread as we do in each election contest despite the mainstream media’s reluctance to share. Those other guys have a sanctimonious view of their role in filtering information to the public. Our goal is to trust our readers by interpreting data as soon as it is available.
Eventually a winner in the Massachusetts senate election will be declared and you can expect Right Pundits to declare that winner first before all of the mainstream media outlets make a fuss. They will keep you hanging for commercial break after commercial break until their advertising expectations are met. Only after their corporate requirements are discharged will they tell you who won. We, on the other hand, will cut out all the B.S. with a purified heart.
Recent polls show Scott Brown ahead of Coakley. There is no other way to spin it despite the liberal Daily Kos poll showing the race as a tossup. All the excitement is in the Brown camp. All the grass roots hooplah is there. All the press buzz. Barack Obama’s odd speech making fun of American-made pickup trucks will apparently not stem a populist uprising in the original tea party state. You can find a link to the MA polls in our upper left sidebar.
MA has always been a patriotic state which champions itself looking out for the little guy. This election cycle the Democrat party has confused such populism with support for a distasteful agenda in Washington, forgetting that Massachusetts once voted for Ronald Reagan in a similar bout of patriotism. Mainstream Democrats may not yet understand that under Obama’s agenda, the public believes that little guy interests are perhaps not served by an extreme liberal agenda.
For whatever reasons Scott Brown is now leading Martha Coakley. The upset of the century may be in the making which is why we will turn with great interest to Massachusetts exit polls as they are revealed. We should know the winner early based on trends in that exit poll data.
You can click the arrow to join the live blog. If you are early, bookmark the page and share any comments below in the usual places. Analysis of liveelection results for MA will begin at 12pm PT / 3pm ET, and continue past the time that our vaunted Right Pundits elections desk declares a winner.

The world Must Recognise Pakistan’s Critical Anti-Terrorism Role And Understand The Complex War:Speaking at the international launch of a Pakistani TV drama, portraying the country’s ongoing anti-militant struggle at the cost of enormous human suffering, the ambassador said Pakistan has rendered more sacrifices than any other nation in the fight against terrorism. ‘Pakistan has lost more lives to terrorism in the last two years than any other country, more Pakistani soldiers have died in the battle against terrorism,’ Haqqani told Pakistani and American media representatives at the embassy, where director, playwright and cast introduced the play ‘Khuda Zameen Se Gaya Nahin’. ‘
Still there are people around the world who do not recognise Pakistan’s sacrifices and nor do they understand the complexity of this difficult war,’ the envoy added. Based on real happenings and written by Asghar Nadeem Syed, the drama serial depicts resilience and aspirations of the Pakistanis to move forward as a moderate people. The play, produced by Communication Research Strategies, will be beamed internationally in 16 episodes by PTV Globe.
The characters and situations in the production highlight psychological, emotional and social tensions in their struggle to defend their way of life. The play has been shot at 50 different locations and also shows lifelike scenes of Pakistani military actions against militants, produced with the help of Inter-Services Public Relations. In his remarks, Haqqani pointed out that the world owes it to the Pakistanis and Afghanis to help them tide over troubles that arose out of the West-supported Jihad against the Soviet Union in the 1980s, when one extreme ideology was pitched against another. ‘When the Soviet Union pulled out of Afghanistan, the United States left Pakistan and Afghanistan — the mujahideen (brought together from around the world) did not, and have morphed into the Taliban.’
The United States and Pakistan, he stated, are allies. ‘We do not always agree with one another but the fact remains that our goals in the region are similar.’ ‘Pakistan wants a stable Afghanistan and Pakistan wants to eliminate terrorism from the region. Pakistanis want to move forward as a progressive and democratic nation.’ Islamabad, he said, wants to resolve issues with its neighbours but argued that Pakistan would not be told by others whether its security concerns emanate from the eastern border or from terrorism on the western border. ‘We will define our security concerns ourselves.’
He said Pakistani soldiers, intelligence personnel, politicians and people are jointly fighting the menace of terrorism, which must be addressed with a multidimensional approach having economic, social and political components. The ambassador said the US and Pakistan should continue a process of overcoming trust deficit of the last three decades that began with Secretary of State Hillary Clintons three-day visit to Pakistan last month. He lauded the role of Pakistani artists, musicians, poets, writers and particularly the entire team of the production for reflecting in their work the nation’s struggle against extremism. Writer Asghar Nadeem Syed, Director Kashif Nisar, artistes Ayesha Khan and Noman Ejaz introduced some aspects and theme of the play to the audience comprising American South Asian affairs experts and journalists.

Mary Weiland,Mary Forsberg Weiland:Mary Weiland was the wife of Scott Weiland, frontman for the 1990s grunge band Stone Temple Pilots. I’ll never forget their song “Interstate Love Song” for many reasons I won’t mention here.
Mary Forsberg Weiland recently wrote about her time with Scott and the band in her memoir, “Fall to Pieces: A Memoir of Drugs, Rock ‘n’ Roll, and Mental Illness.” Mary, a divorced former model, wrote the book with Larkin Warren, former Esquire editor.
Seems Scott and Mary lived up to the band name by getting stoned all the time. Both were strung out on heroin. Mary recalls a time they both shot up so much they had to wear long sleeved shirts to hide the needle marks when they attended a Fourth of July party thrown by Leonardo DiCaprio at his Malibu home.
I was reminded of a scene from the movie “Waiting to Exhale” when I read what Mary did in March, 2007. Seems she dragged Scott’s wardrobe into their driveway and set it on fire. She landed in a mental hospital with a diagnosis of bi-polar disorder for her actions. (I don’t remember that happening in the movie.)
Mary said about the torching experience, “The bonfire was huge and very pretty. Everything went up in smoke quickly, except the shoe leather; the Guccis took the longest. The news reports said I’d torched $10,000 worth of Scott’s clothes, which was wrong by a factor of eight. He was somewhat insulted at their estimate: ‘Eighty thousand dollars, Mary,’ he said later.
Mary was just 16 when she entered into a life of sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll that included heroin and crack. Scott Weiland is credited with the breakup of the band because of his wild behavior.
Mary’s memoir hit the market on November 10 if you want to read more. It’s sad to think these guys were so stoned when they sang some of my favorite songs.
