Rachael Makes It
After 12 days, 11 hours, 42 minutes Rachael Scdoris of Bend, Oregon arrived at Nome, the 57th team to finish. Not bad for someone with 20/200 vision and color blindness.
Congratulations to everyone who made the attempt.
Update: More on Rachael at the Grumpy Forester.

Clueless
Michael “Deathmask” Chertoff is running around telling people High tech helps airport screening switch from saving us from nail clippers to stopping bombs from getting on aircraft.
Except that yesterday we were told Report: Airport screeners fail homemade bomb tests.
The thing about successful prevarication is that it requires an excellent memory, a good personality, and intelligence.
We are spending billions and are no safer than we were before 9/11. These people have been playing with “terror level” and don’t take terrorism seriously because they has been manipulating the system for political purposes.
For all of their illegal wiretapping, they didn’t detect any of the Asian-Pacific bombings, the Madrid bombing, or the London bombing. If their system was effective and their concept of the “international terrorism network” was accurate, they should have picked up something.
The only people we know for a fact the “homeland security forces” are watching are opponents of the Shrubbery and/or the war in Iraq.

Info For The Bloggered
Blogger Status has deigned to acknowledge that there is a problem and they are on it.
I found that in order to get my regular page to appear I had to go to Dashboard, select my latest post for Editing, and then hit Publish.
If you don’t hit the Publish button, your page won’t be regenerated.
It worked for me, and it might for you.
