The release of these videos was tied into the larger theme of the changing role of technology and especially its abiility to level the playing field in modern politics. (See his press […]
So a few entries ago, I once again posted my predictions for the NHL playoffs. I didn't take the time to do any analysis or anything – just posted a list of my picks using a unique style of picking teams based on a descending scale of 1) do I like the team? 2) Is […]
