In spite of his bad acting, Ryan Dempster will start Game 1 of the NLDS vs. the Mets, Phillies, or Dodgers.

Will Palin Bag Florida for McCain? Sarah is the Dems Only Hope
Sarah Silverman that is… Here’s an introduction to her Great Schlep for Obama ’08 Initiative if you haven’t already seen it:
My relatives no longer hang out in Florida, but if they did… well, now that I live in California, it would take a lot to drag me to out California, but with the Florida Dems using desperate, embarrassing fighting words to suggest Obama is the lesser of two evils, perhaps Sarah Silverman is Florida’s last great hope. And everybody else?
Vote ’08: Vote by Mail and Registration Deadlines
Isn’t it too late to register already? How do you vote by mail? I keep hearing this questions both directly and in passing and so I’m writing this brief post to address the answers, at least in specificity to the State of California (voting guide). You can also call for CA voting info: 1-800-345-VOTE. Find specific state-by-state info here
Is it too late to register to vote?
Not even close. October 20 is the last day to vote in California and most other states. Vote via the widget here.
How can I vote by mail?
In California, you can apply after October 6 via this form (PDF) or any of the other forms (in multiple languages) listed here. Currently, only 28 states allow no-excuse absentee voting. For information on your site, check The Vote by Mail Project.
Why the hell do we have to vote on Tuesday?
To answer this question, I urge everyone to explore the Why Tuesday? website. Fortunately, more and more states are allowing vote-by-mail, but it would be easiest to drop by a ballot box on a saturday or sunday, considering we’re not all farmers anymore.
There you go. Please leave any questions, thoughts, and comments below. You can also follow me on Twitter. No go and vote!

LA Times $700,000,000,000 Headline, originally uploaded by revolute.
They don’t write headlines like this online (or M-Sa, no less) so I’m archiving the screenshot (see also here and the LAT print edition archive)…
But damn if you didn’t spend your last $1.50 after seeing this on the newsstand Sunday I grabbed this image from Newseum.org (PDF). No mushroom cloud (the bombing was in Pakistan but the context is Wall Street) online either, only in the Southern California distributed (and in a few locations in SF) print.
D-R-A-M-A
At least they managed to squeeze in a Palin column beneath the mushroom cloud.
