Dr. Everheart. He was still restless this morning. Will eat wet food, but not touching the dry.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

That experiment wouldn't be valid unless they monitored the subjects' diet as closely as they monitored their exercise.

Ann, that's a ferret.

((((sarameg and Mister Kitty)))) He's eating. That's a step in the right direction.

We haven't been watching the debates. I find the analysis gets us to the most important and entertaining parts.

Why does it show that Bloc Québécois got more seats, but a smaller popular vote than the NDP?

The voting is representative, not proportional, and based on seats. So you can be an also ran in many seats, but never win any.

The Bloc, being a Quebec nationalist party only runs candidates in Quebec which has a total of 75 seats. So they got a high percentage of the popular vote within Quebec to win the 50 seats they did, but no votes outside of Quebec. The NDP run a full slate of candidates across the country, so they may win fewer seats, but get proportionately more votes than the Bloc.

Blegh. I'm feeling nauseated and dizzy today. Luckily I can work from home, and lying around on a couch with a laptop works just fine. But I have my running group meeting tonight and if I'm feeling then as I am now that's just not going to happen.

ETA: Much kittie~ma to those who need it.
