GOP candidates vie for voters' trust in fluid Iowa (AP)
DES MOINES, Iowa ? Republicans rendered the first verdict in the 2012 race for the White House on Tuesday in Iowa caucuses from Adel to Zearing, opening night for the campaign to pick a challenger to President Barack Obama in the fall.
Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, Texas Rep. Ron Paul and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum shared the straw poll ballot with House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Texas Gov. Rick Perry and Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann in a caucus race as jumbled as any in the 40 years since Iowa gained the presidential campaign lead-off position.
The winner was in line for bragging rights ? and perhaps much more ? as the Republican nominating campaign makes the turn to primaries in New Hampshire on Jan. 10, then South Carolina and Florida before the end of January. For some of the also-rans, history suggested the first event of the year might also be their last.
The Iowa caucuses' outsized importance was underscored by the estimated $13 million in television advertising by the candidates and so-called super PACs as well as thousands of campaign stops designed to sway 100,000 or so voters.
Ironically, the weak economy that has made Obama appear vulnerable nationally was muted as an issue here. Despite areas of economic distress, the farm economy is strong. Iowa's unemployment in November was 5.7 percent, sixth lowest in the country and well below the national reading of 8.6 percent.
Despite its importance as the lead-off state, Iowa has a decidedly uneven record when it comes to predicting national winners. It sent Obama on his way in 2008, but eventual Republican nominee John McCain finished a distant fourth here to former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.
Romney, who finished second in Iowa in 2008 despite a costly effort, initially campaigned cautiously this time around.
But he barnstormed extensively across the state in the race's final days in pursuit of a first-place finish, running as a conservative businessman with the skills to fix the economy and as the challenger with the best chance to defeat Obama.
Santorum, Gingrich, Perry and Bachmann argued that Romney wasn't nearly conservative enough on the economy and social issues such as abortion. They vied for months to emerge as the alternative to the former Massachusetts governor.
Paul's libertarian-leaning views set him apart, and he hoped that might be enough to claim victory in a six-way race where no one broke away from the pack.
Unlike in a primary, in which voting occurs over hours, the 809 Iowa caucuses were meetings in which Republicans gathered for an evening of politics. Each presidential candidate was entitled to have a supporter deliver a speech on his or her behalf before straw ballots were taken.
Under party rules, caucus results have no control over the allocation of Iowa's 25 delegates to the Republican National Convention. The Associated Press uses the caucus outcome to calculate the number each candidate would win if his support remained unchanged in the pre-convention months.
The race in Iowa came to be defined by its unpredictability as the months rolled by and nationally televised candidate debates piled up.
Bachmann gained early momentum on the strength of a victory in a summertime straw poll and a feisty debate performance.
But she quickly faltered when Perry joined the race and overshadowed her as the 10-year governor of Texas with deep-pocketed supporters and an unbroken record of electoral success at home.
Perry's rise lasted only as long as a couple of debates ? including one where he memorably was unable to recall the third of three federal agencies he wanted to abolish.
Next up was Herman Cain, a black former businessman who improbably shot to the top of the polls in a party that draws its support chiefly from white voters. He suspended his candidacy a few weeks later, after a woman said she and he had carried on a long-term extra-marital affair.
Gingrich rode the next surge in the polls, a remarkable comeback for a man whose campaign had imploded earlier in 2011 when most of his aides quit in frustration. But his rise lasted only until a super PAC that supports Romney began attacking him on television.
Enter Paul, and Santorum, both campaigning widely across the state and hoping to have the last say.
Democrats watched carefully in a state that has swung between the two parties in recent presidential elections.
Obama was unopposed for his party's nomination. Even so, his re-election campaign set up eight offices across Iowa, made hundreds of thousands of calls to voters and arranged a video conference with caucus night supporters.
It was Iowa that launched Obama on the way to the White House four years ago when he won a convincing victory in the caucuses.
The state's lead-off spot has been a fixture for decades. Democrats moved the caucuses up to early January in 1972, and Republicans followed suit four years later.

Android has its own Japanese manga comic: ?Sweet Android High-school?
Whilst Japanese manga comics encompass a variety of different subjects and?story-lines, you might be surprised to learn that Google?s Android operating system has been given a comic of its very own, and its called ?Sweet Android High-school?.
Sweet Android Highschool chronicles the pursuits of the world?s most notable Android vendors, including Samsung, HTC, LG, Motorola and Sony Ericsson. However, instead of referencing them by their brand name, this comic refers to each of the manufacturers with the following names:
- Moto-Laura-chan (Motorola)
- Sam-Sung-chan (Samsung)
- H-T-Syee-chan (HTC)
- Elle-G-chan (LG)
- Soni-Eri-chan (Sony Ericsson)
Apple is listed also, and is known as Apple-kun.
According to Asiajin, the recent Google buyout of Motorola has been captured, with Google marrying Moto-Laura-chan. The Asia-focused website says that the?high-school?teacher ?does not give?precedence?to her? and ?everyone tends to forget about the marriage?.
As you may have noticed, none of the above companies are Japanese, therefore they are characterised as international students.
Japanese students Sharp (Sharp-chan), Fujitsu-Toshiba (Fuji-Toru-chan) and Casio-NEC (Kashio-Nko-chan), represent the Japanese?contingent and are said to be anxious and complain all the time.
You can read more about the characters, here.
We have sought translation of some of the comics but you can clearly see some of the comics referencing Google?s Ice Cream Sandwich update and the new Galaxy Nexus.
Asiajin says that the comic ?runs on extra editions of Weekly ASCII, a PC magazine with long history in Japan,? that also publishes some excerpts online, here.

Need a new kidney Try Facebook
Need a new kidney? Try Facebook ??
?????Sunday 1st January, 2012??Source: New Zealand Herald ??
| Here's another reason for holdouts to join social media site Facebook: It's a great place to find a kidney. Between the children's photos and reminiscences about high school, more and more pleas for help from people with failing kidneys are popping up. Facebook and other social media sites are quickly becoming a go-to place to find a generous person with a kidney to spare, according to the people asking for help and some national organisations that facilitate matches. Damon Brown found a kidney on Facebook after telling his story on a special page the Seattle dad created under the name, "Damon Kidney". | Breaking News |

New Statehouse occupancy rules seen as anti-union
By Chelsea Schneider Kirk cschneider@post-trib.com December 30, 2011 2:00PM
Updated: December 30, 2011 7:49PM
A high-ranking Indiana House Democrat sees new Statehouse security measures announced Friday as a ploy to keep union members protesting right-to-work legislation out of the building.
State public safety personnel set a new capacity for the Statehouse at 3,000 people ahead of the Indiana General Assembly session that starts Wednesday. State officials estimate 1,700 people work in the building.
Right-to-work legislation that drew large crowds and led to a five-week walk out by House Democrats last year is expected to become a dominating issue this session. The legislation would prohibit unions from requiring workers to pay fees to the labor organizations
?I?ve been there for rallies with many, many more people,? state Rep. Linda Lawson, D-Hammond, said. ?Obviously it?s an attempt to keep union members out of the building. That?s the only way to look at it. It?s never been done before.?
The public is advised to enter at the east door on the Capitol Avenue side. Signs larger than 2-feet by 2-feet and made of material other than cardboard, poster board or other non-injury causing material are restricted.
State Sen. Earline Rogers, D-Gary, sees the new policy as an attempt to block the public from the Legislature.
?This is not the way for the administration to react to citizens? rights to gather and protest,? Rogers said. ?It?s certainly not the way to deal with the many pressing problems of the state as it relates to the economy and jobs.?
The policy was drafted by Indiana State Police, the state?s homeland security department and the state fire marshal?s office. State Police Superintendent Paul Whitesell said the capacity number was based on an analysis of what was a safe capacity level for the building.
Whitesell said large crowds that gathered in the Statehouse during the 2011 session created disruptions.
?During the last legislative session, several scheduled events were interrupted or canceled, and we want everyone who visits or schedules an event in the building to have a pleasant and successful experience,? he said in a statement.
