News: Truro, MA incorrectly calculates two-thirds vote
136 to 70. That doesn't pass with a two-thirds majority. A two thirds majority would be 137.3333 repeating forever. This means that you need 138 votes for the measure for a two-thirds majority. Found a hilarious comment though: 'This is maybe third or fourth grade level math here people, and it's kinda sad that there is even any confusion about it. .66 is not 2/3, it's a little less than 2/3 and it does not count if the law says 2/3. You know good and well these #$%holes were the kids who used to ask ''Why will I ever need to know this stuff in real life?'' when they were kids. Well, you stupid #$%es, this is why.'

News: Google in talks to buy ITA Software
My go-to airfare search tool might be bought out by teh Google. Not sure what I think about that. Nothing against Google...except that it's truly aiming for world domination. Just worries me a bit. Not that I don't love their services (GOOG-411, Google Reader, etc.)

News: Google may open source VP8 (high-quality video) codec
Very very good for everyone. The main obstacle between dumping flash (with all it's problems and downloads and updating) and moving to HTML5 is getting everyone to agree on a good codec. Some like the high quality of H.264, but it's proprietary. Mozilla likes Ogg Theora because it's open source, but not too good of quality. Google bought the VP8 codec...open sourcing it will be the best of both...if only Microsoft's IE and Apple's Safari jump on board....which is a pretty big if.
