Had never heard this song by the Orlons until today




While doing yard work this afternoon, I listened to Luxuria Music DJ Sheryl Farber on her "Splendor in the Grass" program.  Because this selection was played in the middle of a commercial-free cluster of songs, I used SoundHound to learn who was performing this wonderful rarity.

Actually, I was expecting this answer.

"Envy (in my Eyes)" was released in late 1965, more than 2 years past the Orlons' prime, as the 'B' side of "No Love But Your Love".  The single didn't even 'bubble under' the Billboard Hot 100.

Clinton pads her lead in latest New York primary poll



But Sander has cut into Clinton's once-lofty poll average.


Clinton's Lead in New York Grows.  (NBC News, 4/14/2016)
In this most recent poll, Clinton leads among both women (60 percent to 37 percent) and men (53 percent to 44 percent), those 45 or older (67 percent to 29 percent) and non-whites (58 percent to 39 percent).

The case of the disappearing banks in small-town Iowa



As rural population dwindles, so do small-town banks. (Des Moines Register, 4/16/2016)
The Lucas bank is just one of many in Iowa shuttered in recent years, particularly in the state's rural areas. As more Iowans move to the state's urban areas, bankers say, more rural branches are closing. Mergers and consolidations in the banking industry are also having an effect.

A closer look at Wisconsin's population loss: Juneau County



The population of Juneau County initially peaked in 1900.  During the first three decades of the 20th century, its population shrank by 16%.  The county experienced a period of steady growth from 1960 until 2010 -- a 52% increase in population.  Since 2010, though, it has lost an estimated 442 residents.


Source:  Wikipedia + U.S. Census Bureau (2015)

As of July 1, 2014, 19.0% of Juneau County's population is 65 and over compared to a state average of 15.2%.  Its 0-to-4 demographic is 5.5% compared to Wisconsin's 5.9%.

Beyond CES 2016: Robot empowers staff to focus on customer service


Or so it sez in this 42-second video.




Supermarket Robot Makes Sure Your Favorite Snacks Are in Stock.  (Mental Floss, 4/15/2016)
Tally has yet to become a supermarket staple, but according to PC Mag, Simbe conducted a secret test-run at an unnamed American store earlier this year. The machine is meant to roam the aisles during normal store hours, so making sure human customers are comfortable shopping alongside robots will be key to the product's success.

Promises, promises.  I have a feeling some grocery chains might see this and similar tech developments as ways to increase their already thin profit margins.   (Ever try to find someone to assist you at Woodman's?)

A closer look at Wisconsin's population loss: Iron County



Like its neighbors to the west -- Ashland, Bayfield, and Douglas counties -- Iron County initially experienced rapid growth thanks to the timber and mining industries.  Its population peaked in 1920 and then stabilized for two decades.  Since then, it has declined 42%


Source:  Wikipedia + U.S. Census Bureau (2015)

As of July 1, 2014, 28.2% of Iron County's population is 65 and over compared to a state average of 15.2%.  Its 0-to-4 demographic is 3.8% compared to Wisconsin's 5.9%.  A projected population loss of 8.4% between 2010 to 2040 puts it in the top 10 among Wisconsin counties.

Donald Trump's Joe Paterno meltdown moment in Pittsburgh


As we well know by now, it doesn't matter where it counts what kind of nonsense this guy spouts.



Related reading:
Donald Trump asks Pittsburgh: ‘How’s Joe Paterno?’  (Philadelphia Inquirer, 4/14/2016)
Trump later clarified his comments through a spokesperson, who told CNN's Ashley Killough that the presidential candidate was referring to the bronze statue of Joe Paterno that formerly stood in front of Beaver Stadium “that they melted down.” 
The statue was taken down in 2012 in connection with the Sandusky scandal, and stored “in a secure location.” As Dan McQuade at PhillyMag notes, the notion that the statue was melted down appears to stem from an Onward State blog post from April Fool’s Day last year. 

Trump gets some breathing room in latest GOP presidential primary poll



CBS News poll shows change in Trump-Cruz gap.  (CBS News, 4/14/2016)
Trump continues to receive support from a wide swath of Republican primary voters. He leads among men, with 44 percent, compared to 31 percent for Cruz and 18 percent for Kasich. He also leads among women, 44 percent, to 29 percent for Cruz and 19 percent for Kasich. Republicans, independents, white evangelicals, and non-college graduates also prefer Trump.

'A very successful career in winning elections'?

Let's take a look at the record:

  • 1998.  Loleta Didrickson loses her primary
  • 2002.  Jim Doyle, a Democrat, is elected Governor of Wisconsin.
  • 2004.  George W. Bush loses Wisconsin, although he wins re-election to the Presidency.
  • 2008.  Rudy Giuliani drops out 9 months before the Presidential election.
  • 2012.  Obama is easily re-elected to a 2nd term.
  • 2015.  Scott Walker suspends his campaign after tanking in the polls and blowing through all (and more) of his campaign cash.  

My guess is that Cruz and Kasich are very pleased with this choice.

A 'fairly regularly' occurring event certain to elicit breathless reporting from cable news


U.S. Navy video released yesterday.



You can listen here to Wolf Blitzer, in pants-wetting mode, throw logs on what little fire there is.

And then there's this U.S. Navy video from last year.



And this alternative perspective from Tyler Rogoway, editor of Foxtrot Alpha, writing in
Navy Responds To Claim Ship Was Scared Off By Russian Jets With Video.
Is an Su-24 a threat? Sure it is, in that they can carry some fairly wicked anti-ship missiles. But these attacks occur at standoff ranges, not within visual range. If anything, the Russian jet’s offering of free target practice was good training for the Ross’s crew, and passes like this one occur in international waters fairly regularly. And many of those, too, can carry anti-ship missiles like the Su-24.

It does appear that this week's buzz was much closer than last year's.

A closer look at Wisconsin's population loss: Green Lake County



The population of Green Lake County has an undulating history.  It increased 24% from 1860 to 1900, decreased 12% from 1900 to 1930, and then increased 37% through the end of the 20th century.  Since then, its estimated population has decreased 1.4%.  Still near the top of its form, so to speak.

Source:  Wikipedia + U.S. Census Bureau (2015)

As of July 1, 2014, 20.8% of Green Lake County's population is 65 and over compared to a state average of 15.2%.  Its 0-to-4 demographic is 5.5% compared to Wisconsin's 5.9%.

A closer look at Wisconsin's population loss: Forest County



The population of Forest County peaked in 1940, which was followed by a precipitous 36% decline during the next 2 decades. Since then, it's been a series of ups and downs.  The county has lost nearly 10% of its population since 2000.

Lumbering in Forest County can be traced back to 1842.  Currently among the top 10 counties in output of forest products, it remains an important part of the economy.


Source:  Wikipedia + U.S. Census Bureau (2015)


As of July 1, 2014, 21.8% of Forest County's population is 65 and over compared to a state average of 15.2%.  Its 0-to-4 demographic of is identical to Wisconsin's 5.9%.
