- How do blank ballots count as "no" votes in Minnesota? - Stephen, No. 5 with a bullet! Oct 19, 13:27 18
  - [deleted] 6
    - Doesn't sound like it should be that way. As I posted below, if I don't feel strongly enough one way or the other to cast a vote the government - Stephen, No. 5 with a bullet! Oct 19, 13:46 5
      - on the other hand, is it a good idea for people who want to change the state constitution to be able to rely on the ambivalence of voters - znombie znufrii Oct 19, 13:48 2
        
        in fact I might even go further and suggest there be a threshold of some percentage of registered voters in favor, rather than of ballots cast. - znombie znufrii Oct 19, 13:55
        
        Looks like they're doing both. -- nm - the liioulu with Oct 19, 13:51
      - [deleted]
      - The government isn't voting for you. You are chosing a pocket no vote. -- nm - the liioulu with Oct 19, 13:47
  - Constitutional changes have to be passed by a majority of all voters. -- (link) - Roger More Oct 19, 13:33
  - interesting approach, and kind of makes sense to me -- nm - znombie znufrii Oct 19, 13:31 6
    - [deleted] 1
      - It's Stephen, of course he objects. -- nm - the liioulu with Oct 19, 13:48
    - I disagree. If I haven't checked a box it's because I don't want to cast a vote on that issue; the government shouldn't then be able to cast a vote - Stephen, No. 5 with a bullet! Oct 19, 13:41 2
      - If you don't want to cast a vote on that issue then you don't vote period or you bother to learn about the issue and make up your mind to vote yes or - the liioulu with Oct 19, 13:46
      - [deleted]
    - Sort of like a pocket veto. -- nm - the liioulu with Oct 19, 13:33
  - Because that's how they do it in Minnesota. Says so in the link. - the liioulu with Oct 19, 13:30 2

      - 90000. Material amount to the audit -- nm - Truman Oct 19, 13:30
    - Adjustment to retained earnings? - MorbidMeg Oct 19, 12:57 2
      - Net assets is the nonprofit term for retained earnings. It was never an asset, it went from income to equity to a liability -- nm - Truman Oct 19, 13:19
      - Poll numbers changed. See, Sarah Palin. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 19, 13:01

- I would say that if it was moved to deferred assets, that's where it should move from. -- nm - amanda Oct 19, 12:46 3
  - Hmm. No it was moved from net assets ( ie retained earnings) to deferred rev - Truman Oct 19, 12:48 2
    - oh sorry. my answer stands. move it from where it is. why move it from where it was? it's not there anymore. -- nm - amanda Oct 19, 12:55
    - Just clarifying. It's a liability now -- nm - Truman Oct 19, 12:49

  - *snork* -- nm - Spawn Oct 19, 12:58
- none...anymore. got rid of one that did it, strangelythe crap they sent seemed to be opposite what i knew of them - zeitgeist Oct 19, 12:51 2
  - actually i think FB has supplanted that crap -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 19, 12:52 1
    - I can't stand all that 'if you don't copy and paste this message to your status that means you must like cancer' bullsh!t. -- nm - C*ckmonster Oct 19, 12:56
- 1 and he's 70+ years old, so I just blow 'em away. :) -- nm - Jim Oct 19, 12:51

on politics and American Exceptionalism... -- (link) - znombie znufrii Oct 19, 12:24 6
- The article has some good points, but I tend to disagree that European politicians have greater freedom to address social problems than American ones - Roger More Oct 19, 12:35 5
  - Well...Since we are so far behind in those social issues... -- nm - the liioulu with Oct 19, 13:23 2
    - I wouldn't always agree. I think the American system deals with (legal) migrants better than the French system, which is more focussed on integration. - Roger More Oct 19, 13:38 1
      - Education, birth control, infant mortality, health...these are all social issues the US is behind in. - the liioulu with Oct 19, 13:56
  - perhaps, but it's for substantively different reasons than here in the US, I think. -- nm - znombie znufrii Oct 19, 12:46 1
    - Or the same reason - politicians pandering to voters that the local model is the best. -- nm - Roger More Oct 19, 13:42
re: diet cola. I don't think aspartame tolerates cooking very well. Splenda should be ok though. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 12:10 8
- Aspartame doesn't, it does break down. Splenda less so. -- nm - the liioulu with Oct 19, 12:19 1
  - And.... - the liioulu with Oct 19, 12:23
- when you talk about 12 ounces of cola in a four pound pork thing, how many calories really do we think it adds per serving? you know? just use sugar. -- nm - amanda Oct 19, 12:15 5
  - sometimes it's about sugar rather than calories. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 12:16 4
    - It's all about what I have on hand and what I drink. No point of buying a 6-pack of non-diet just for 1 can. -- nm - MorbidMeg Oct 19, 12:20 3
      - I bought ours from the soda machine at work. -- nm - amanda Oct 19, 12:24 2
        
        Ah, screw the soda....I'll use burgundy ;) -- nm - MorbidMeg Oct 19, 12:36 1

  - oh, you can get here from there, but you can't get there from here. -- nm - znombie znufrii Oct 19, 12:48 1
    - takea left in alburqurque -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 19, 12:56
