Democratic party officials reached a deal today to seat delegates from the disputed Florida and Michigan primaries with half a vote each. The decision happened behind closed doors and voted on publicly — announced to cheers and boos underscoring the impossibility of reaching a "correct" answer in the scenario.
In the decision Clinton (who won the Michigan and Florida contests) picked up 19 delegates in Florida and 5 delegates in Michigan, a net gain of 24 delegates over Obama.
Howard Dean, chairman of the DNC, opened the meeting today saying, “We are strong enough to struggle and disagree and to even be angry and disappointed and still come together at the end of the day and be united.”
Was this decision fair? Will the Democrats be able to come together now?
Japanese police just arrested a woman for living secretly in a stranger's closet for over a year — sleeping on a small mattress she brought with her. Considering that this woman was living in a closet for a year, I'm not so sure prisontime will be too bad of a punishment.
The homeowner knew something was up once he noticed food was missing from his refrigerator. This guy must love food a whole lot more than he liked clothes, since he noticed his food was gone, but failed to notice he had a roommate!
Well once the missing food planted a seed of suspicion, he installed a nanny cam-type surveillance system. And guess who he found! Fifty-eight-year-old Tatsuko Horikawa, a formerly homeless woman, sleeping in his storage space and walking around his place while he wasn't there. Can you imagine the eerie feeling of realizing food is missing, only to find out someone has been living in your home!
How is it even possible to not realize a person is crashing at your place for that long? Are you going to go home and check all your closets?
