Dec. 4, 2007
The Lipscomb University baseball team has released its 2008 baseball schedule, which is highlighted by a total of 16 games against teams that competed in the 2007 NCAA Tournament.
Lipscomb opens the season on Feb. 22 against Southern Miss when the Bisons go on the road to Hattiesburg, Miss., for a three-game series beginning Friday at 4 p.m.
Other non-conference highlights include a home and home series against archrival Vanderbilt (March 19 at Vandy, and April 15 at Dugan Field), two games against instate rivals Austin Peay (March 11 in Clarksville, May 5 in Nashville), MTSU (April 1 at Dugan Field, and April 8 in Murfreesboro), Tennessee-Martin (April 2 at Martin and April 9 at Dugan Field) and a weekend series against Big South powerhouse Winthrop (May 2-4 in Rock Hills, SC) as well a single game with SEC power Alabama (April 22 in Tuscaloosa) and home date with the University of Tennessee for the first time since 1984 on March 18.
"As always our non-conference schedule is very good because there are so many good baseball teams just in our state alone," assistant coach Brian Ryman said. "We have Vanderbilt, Tennessee, MTSU and UT-Martin in addition to Austin Peay, which is back on our schedule this year. All of us recruit very hard in state, and we look forward to playing each other every season.
"The non-conference schedule starts tough, not only with our in-state teams, but with Southern Miss, which was a NCAA Tournament team last season. We also have Vanderbilt on the schedule, which is always in the Top 10 in the NCAA each year, and you can't overlook Winthrop, which has become a mid-major power."
The non-conference schedule is always challenging, but the Atlantic Sun Conference is consistently one of the tougher leagues in the country.
"Our non-conference schedule is extremely difficult, and when you combine that with the way the Atlantic Sun Conference has been the last couple of years it's going to make for a very challenging schedule," Ryman asid. "Over the last two years, our league has not only been loaded with good teams, but with many professional players.
"If you look at the preseason draft projections alone, Stetson has three guys I think could go in the draft, Jacksonville has a ton of young talent, Mercer returns several players, Belmont is still very good, and Kennesaw St. returns the top pitcher in the country. So our league will be as good as it's always been. You even have teams that have been down but are getting a lot better and it makes for a tough conference week-in and week-out."
After Jacksonville, Lipscomb will host Gardner-Webb (Mar. 21-23), Kennesaw St. (March 28-29), Florida Gulf Coast (Apr. 11-12), and ETSU (April 25-27) before concluding their home schedule with a three-game series against the Mercer Bears May 8-9.
"We have a very good home schedule, starting with Jacksonville and Gardner-Webb early and continuing through Kennesaw, Gulf Coast, and Mercer in May," Ryman said. "We haven't seen these teams at home in over two years, but they all have NCAA Tournament potential and are coming in here at the end of April before we get ETSU, which is a natural in state rivalry for us.
"Overall, it's going to be a great home slate, and one of the things that we have to be prepared for is to play very well at home."
The Bisons will travel to in city rival Belmont for the "Battle of the Boulevard" (Feb. 29- Mar. 3), North Florida (Mar.8-9) and Stetson (Apr. 4-6) in addition to USC-Upstate and Campbell University to end the A-Sun. The Atlantic Coast Conference tournament will begin May 21 at Stetson University in Deland, Fla., while NCAA play starts May 30 on campus sites.

Obama Vows To Press Ahead On Fiscal Cliff Solution [VIDEO]
President Barack Obama says he'll press ahead with Congress to prevent across-the-board tax increases set to strike taxpayers Jan. 1 after House GOP leaders unexpectedly put off a vote on legislation calling for higher rates on million-dollar earners.
House Speaker John Boehner conceded Thursday night that the measure did not have sufficient support from Republicans to pass.
At the White House, Press Secretary Jay Carney said Obama's main priority was to ensure that taxes don't go up on what he said would be 98 percent of Americans and 97 percent of small businesses.
Carney's statement didn't say whether Obama would work to revive stalled talks with the Ohio Republican or turn to the Democratic-controlled Senate to try to salvage the situation.

Dia: "Everyone Knows Fener is One of Europe's Best Teams"News • Author: Nathan Redd • Thursday, July 22, 2010
Fenerbahçe's newest transfer spoke to the media Thursday, shortly after arriving in Istanbul. Issiar Dia made the move to Fener from French side AS Nancy-Lorraine earlier this week, and the French-born star of Senegalese heritage said he was excited about his new opportunity. Dia told FB TV that didn't hesitate in accepting the offer from Fenerbahçe.
Issiar Dia is still getting used to his new surroundings in Istanbul, but the French/Senegalese footballer spoke with FB TV earlier today. Dia said he was thrilled about his new home in Istanbul.
"I learned that Fenerbahçe had contacted us after I had received a few other offers," Dia told FB TV. They presented the most serious offer, and Fenerbahçe is a great team, so I accepted it without hesitation."
The former AS Nancy-Lorraine striker said he was excited to be making regular European appearances with Fener. "Everyone knows Fenerbahçe is one of Europe's best teams. Every season they play in the UEFA Champions League, and I know I've come to a team that has a lot of great possibilities," he said. "I know Fenerbahçe was the right choice."
Issiar Dia said he was aware of Fener's prestige before making the switch. "Aykut Kocaman has scored many goals and is a legendary name," he said. "I already knew of the club from Alex and Emre. I believe we'll do great things working together," he said.
Dia had a message for Yellow Canaries' fans as well. "I'm very happy to come to Fenerbahçe, and hopefully the fans will support me during the season," he told reporters.
Comments (24)
I think he could be the link for Guiza to profit from.
He will strike fear into Turkish defences with his runs and layoffs.
Did you guys realize that when ever he got the ball he went wide and tried to find someone who could help him. That is the thing i like about him. He doesnt just go and take on defenders when alone like guiza and loose the ball.
Also Gokhan Unal can really strike the ball hard. His teqchinqe is awsome, his strength is too. He is a perfect striker to be played at Europa League, and Turkcell super lig. I think his is ready to play in CL. The guy from Ghana who is with us for next year, has had expirence playing with good defenders in the world cup, so he will be a good choice to start for CL.
subs: deivid,ozer,cristian,ugur,onder,bilica
i think with that speed from the wings and defensive wing backs and alexs keen passing our offense shold do ariteee .. bilica is ok in my opinion lotsa mistakes but i like his aggressiveness and he does save our a**es alot but bekir is solid too
Gokhan Unal is a great striker.
I still stand by Semih as our best striker and the best striker Turkey has. His shot and heading skills are insane. If only he didn't have the tendency to dissapear in the game and get injured :(
As for the best striker in Turkey. Its hard to say. The last time I really had a good look @ Turkey's striking ability was back in the 2008 Euro competition.
Semih, Nihat & the Altintops come to mind...I think Nihat's curling strike into the upper 90 and semih's late heroics both were amazing.

My pokemon emerald game has been loading for ages and i cant get it to start and all i see is a white screen. Does anyone know why this is happening sorry I just got my account yesterday...
My pokemon emerald game has been loading for ages and i cant get it to start and all i see is a white screen. Does anyone know why this is happening sorry I just got my account yesterday...
Did it happen before ?
When you load the game do you see :
1. The white bar loading ? (step 1)
2. The blue bar loading ? (step 2)
3. The red bar ? (error occurred)
Where do you live ? (we have many different servers accross the world)
This is the first time but also the first game i have played here.
The entire box where the game is supposed to be is just white there is no bar of any sort. I live in Singapore.
You need Flash Player 11.8 (or better) to play the games.Are you running Linux by any chance ? If so, there's no linux support. Maybe Chromium for Linux...
Ok thanks I solved that problem but could you explain how the saving and loading works? I cant seem to figure that out...
Oh never mind i got it thanks
I have the same problem with neo turf master, from this afternoon I can't play...I see the white bar loading and then I see all white screen...
Okay guys I found the issue and fixed it.Could you please confirm ?
I come from Italy admin
I've already downloaded the latest version of flash player, however now the game start without problems, thank you very much for help me :)
That Also Happened All i saw was just the white bar not the blue bar
Never mind it works now :)
Okay guys glad to hear it's fixed !
Hi. All I have is a red bar on a black screen. It won't go further than that?
I'm in the same boat as themans. My Flash Player is updated.
I'm trying to play the pokemon emerald and this happened by the way.
The same thing is happening to me.
my game stops at the beginning, nothing is loading. all the pokemon games wont load!!
actually NO GAMES ARE LOADING! is the site down at the moment?
Nevermind. The games are working for me again.
Hello guys,
Sounds like one of our servers was down.
Are you guys living in US, Canada, South America or Europe ?
Please give this info when you have loading issue so I can know which server is down.
When I went on pokemon red rescue team the white bar didn't load at all then turned into a red bar, I live in Canada.
Eu moro no Brasil
I'm in the United States. I get the white bar which won't load, then turns red. I'm on Chrome and am completely updated.
never mind it works fine for me now
Yes the US server has been down yesterday.
It's a lame server.
Next month I will upgrade to a very good server for US, Canada and South America.
When I try to play games they do not load the bar turns red. My flash is updated and my chrome is updated. I am in the US
FIXED, we have some server trouble I just fixed it.Should not happen again.

Difference between revisions of "North-western Cambodia"
Revision as of 14:24, 22 February 2012
North-western Cambodia is a region of Cambodia and includes the provinces of Banteay Meanchey, Oddar Meanchey, Preah Vihear, Siem Reap and the part of Stoeng Treng to the west of the Mekong.
Other destinations
The north is dominated by the Dangrek Mountains which form the natural barrier between Cambodia and Thailand. Much of the southern part of this region is very flat and fertile leading towards the Tonle Sap - Cambodia's great lake.
Much of north-western Cambodia live in abject poverty, with the province of Siem Reap being one of the poorest in the country, despite the valuable Angkor Archaeological Park being located within. Like the other regions, infrastructure is a new concept in North-Western Cambodia, with only the national highways paved. Out of the towns, electricity is obtained by using car batteries, at a high cost. Despite the obvious negative effects that a lack of development can have, an advantage (if there was one) would be that the region has been largely left alone by tourists, so those who do tread off the tourist trail get an insight into Cambodia's beautiful struggle.
Get in
By plane
The region is served by Siem Reap - Angkor International Airport [1] (IATA: REP | ICAO: VDSR) which has has frequent domestic flights from Phnom Penh and is internationally linked from the following destinations:
By land
The region is linked by road to several Thai border crossings.
National Highway 5 and 6 were completely re-surfaced in 2009 and run from the Thailand/Poipet border crossing to Sisophon (1 hour), and Sisophon to Siem Reap (90 mins), respectively.
National Highway 67, re-surfaced in 2009 runs from the Thailand/Anlong Veng border crossing, south to Siem Reap (2 hours).
National highway 68, re-surfaced in 2011 runs from the Thailand/O'Smach border crossing south to Kralanh (2 hours), where it joins National Highway 6 for Siem Reap
National Highway 6 from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap (5 - 7 hours) is a popular route by bus.
By boat
Hydrofoils ply the route across Tonle Sap Lake from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap (6 hours), stopping stopping at Kampong Chhnang, UDS20-25/person.
One boat a day leaves Battambang in Cardamom and Elephant Mountains, destined for Siem Reap (5 - 8 hours). The duration of the trip depends on the level of the river and lake.
Get around
The magnificent ruins of several ancient Khmer cities at Angkor Archaeological Park cover some 400 sq km and this is one of the world's great monuments. These include the famous Temple of Angkor Wat and, at Angkor Thom, the Bayon Temple with its countless sculptural decorations. Angkor was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1992 and UNESCO has set up a wide-ranging programme to safeguard this symbolic site and its surroundings.
Angkor itself has no accommodation and few facilities and the nearby town of Siem Reap is the tourist hub for the area.
If Angkor does not fill your appetite for ancient ruins, then there are more at Koh Ker to the north.
Tonle Sap is the largest freshwater lake in south-east Asia and a site of major conservation importance.
Stay safe
Get out

Guitar effects pedals have become the default way guitarists and other musicians expand and enhance the sounds of their instruments. Dating back to the 1960s when players like Jimi Hendrix began using fuzz and wah pedals in performance and recording, the sheer volume of available effect types and pedal models has expanded dramatically. In the 1970s, pioneering brands like Electro-Harmonix and MXR helped establish the various branches of the guitar effect family tree with new effects like delay and flanger increasing in popularity. Moving into the '80s, Boss took things even further offering new concepts such as chorus and earning a spot as the most popular pedal company in the world in the process. The past decade or so has witnessed an absolute watershed of smaller, boutique pedal companies entering the market offering more elaborate and adventurous pedals than ever before. For new pedal users, this massive selection can be daunting, but just remember, the best part of buying pedals is experimenting with new and exciting sounds. Buy something, give it a shot, and if you want something different, you can always sell it right here on Reverb and buy something new.

Yes, there may be an echo in here. And it extends a lot longer than five minutes.
It's a 13-day delay, because Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports tonight what Brian Costello of the New York Post reported on January 11: The Rams will hire Rob Ryan to be their next defensive coordinator.
Per Rapoport, a deal has been struck but nothing has been signed.
Ryan notoriously boasted that he'll be out of work "for like five minutes" after the Cowboys fired him.
The development takes one more experienced 3-4 coordinator out of play for the Saints, who plan to switch from the 4-3 to the 3-4.

Woman From Dallas Gives Birth And Then Wakes Up With No Arms Or Legs!
"Petty complaints of a comfortable marriage have all melted away for Katy and Al Hayes. The loving couple already had two children, but the arrival of their third child changed everything. The last thing Katy really remembers is giving birth at her Houston-area home on February 10. And then this: "Waking up in the hospital with no arms and legs. And going, 'What's going on here?' And then he tells me. And his story will knock your socks off, cause I had no idea I was going through all that." Katy Hayes was unconscious the entire time — unaware that a common Group A strep infection had set in, eating away at her body. She was unaware of the incredibly difficult decision her husband made for surgeons to amputate her arms and legs in the hope that they could save her life. "I decided that I loved her so much that the risk was worth it," Al Hayes said. "And if we came out and I had to spend a lifetime taking care of her that the risk was worth it to say that I didn't give up on her. Right? She's my best friend." At first, Al admits he wondered if Katy would forgive him. He wondered if she could have a full life without a full body. There is no doubt now" - Dallas News

Check out this article on CNN today. It is about a truck tipping over and millions of bees escaping. It is remarkable (literally, worth remarking) for several reasons.
1) I am allergic to bees. The scene described is the scariest possible scene I can imagine. I'd rather have to watch 12 straight hours of Vikings metrodome "football" replays than face bees on this scale.
2) This accident was initially reported by Sacremento's newspaper – the Bee.
3) I never thought that having the AC on might be a bad idea as the vent could suck some bees in – good new knowledge for me.
4) Steve Merchant, the Highway Patrolman quoted in the article said "there was somewhere between six (million) and 16 million of them running around out there". Several things: a) bees don't run; b) why did Steve Merchant give or take 10 million bees in his estimate?
5) There is a tremendous acronym used here – the CCD. I can't wait to start using this and then look at people incredulously when they don't know that I'm refering to the "Colony Collapse Disorder".

Have you ever thought about what to do with your bed headboard? No? Well, why not? What's wrong with you? Dang. Anyway, if you get a new bedroom set and need to throw out that old one, it's kind of hard, isn't it? So many memories! Tee hee. But no worries. On this episode of Make It Fabulous, Andee Dodson is going to show us how to turn a headboard into a bench. Which you know you always wanted to know how to do. Don't lie. Let's get to it.
First, you need to saw the footboard right down the middle. I know. Andee with her saw again. That giiiiirrrrl. Don't get on her bad side! Once you split that in half, you've got your sides for the bench. Sounds simple enough, right? I think I'm actually following.
Then you measure to find out where to drill into the headboard. Make some drill holds and screw in some screws. Sounds so easy. Hmmm. I'm still following. Something wrong here.
Once you do that, screw the sides into the headboard. Then Andee gets a little MacGyver on me and measures and saws up some boards and sets them into the headboard. I'd have to watch this like 100 times before I could figure it out. (This is why I'm a writer, not a carpenter.)
Now Andee secures the boards with a nail gun. (Like I said, don't rile this woman up.) She thinks of everything. She puts in some dowels now to make sure that if it rains, the boards don't swell up like Gwyneth Paltrow on a non-cleanse month.
Now she nails in the boards, paints the entire thing, puts some cute little faucet knobs on for feet, and adds pillows. Voila! From bedboard to bench. I could totally do this. (Cough.)
Let Andee show you. It makes more sense when she does. Would you try to make this?

MSJC receives $4.2 million in grant funding

The U.S. Department of Education grant is largest in college history
Mt. San Jacinto College has announced it received a $4.2 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education. It is the largest grant in the college's history.
The grant funding means MSJC can expand educational opportunities for all of its students in the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, or STEM. The STEM grant funds will be distributed to the college over a five-year period, which begins on October first 2011. The college will receive more than $800,000 a year over the five-year period.
"Ultimately this grant will further enhance the educational environment at MSJC and help more students be successful in these challenging fields, fields where there is a critical need for more graduates," said Dr. Roger Schultz, superintendent/president of MSJC. "We are very excited to receive this needed award, but even more excited about the bright future it offers to our students."
The grant is awarded to institutions like MSJC that have a large percentage of traditionally under-served populations. MSJC has a Hispanic student population of 30 percent.
The STEM grant is designed to support several goals. Among those goals, the additional funding should help double the percentage of Hispanic students who earn degrees in the STEM field by the 2015-2016 academic year. It also aims to increase the percent of Hispanic students who transfer to a Cal State or University of California institution.
"This $4.2 million will benefit all of MSJC students while also focusing on a core group that has historically been under-represented in the STEM areas," said Rebecca Teague, associate dean of Institutional, Effectiveness, Planning & Grants. "This will allow MSJC to purchase equipment and create programs that will benefit the entire student body at MSJC. "
Some examples of how the grant funding will benefit students include:

HBO website malfunctions during 'Game of Thrones' season premiere
HBO website malfunctions during 'Game of Thrones' season premiere
The HBO website was down as some people tried to access it Sunday for one of the most highly anticipated TV events of the year.
The timing came as "Game of Thrones" premiered its seventh season, but the website returned to normal about halfway through the show, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
According to a spokeswoman, HBO Go experienced outages in Latin America, but HBO was unaware of widespread issues in the U.S., media outlets reported.
People voiced concerns, asked questions and expressed their dismay on Twitter.
Others mentioned how the issue was not new.
Meanwhile, many people were ecstatic over an encore presentation of the episode.

This time around can they move into the finals and challenge for their first A-Sun Tournament Championship? Coach Charles Morrow and his players are confident they are ready.
The Bisons (5-3-1, 9-8-2 overall), the No. 3-seed, face Mercer (1-5-3, 2-10-5), the No. 6 seed at Campbell University in Buies Creek, N.C. Campbell, the regular season champion and nationally-ranked heading into this week, are the No. 1 seed.
"Regardless of what seed you are or how much experience you have, prior to the game there is always nervousness and anticipation," said Morrow. "It is good to be edgy. They know what is on the line. They know if they lose they are done.
"The difference is how you settle into that and handle the stress. Stress can be a good thing and stress cane be a bad thing. Certainly, we talk about that with our players and they have seen it in the games we have played so far this season. I expect good things."
In an effort to heighten the intensity in preparation for the tournament, goals scored in practice the past few days have resulted in strong consequences for the defenders.
"This past week we set up a training environment where they were very stressed," said Morrow. "For every goal scored in practice there was a lot of running involved.
"It was not unlike what we do all the time. But the stakes were higher. They have lived in a stressful environment all week and will continue in that environment. Some players thrive in that environment more than others."
The veterans players know what it is like to lose in the tournament. For the many freshmen on the team the tournament experience is going to be a new environment.
"Losing last year is definitely a motivational factor, but it also plays into the nerves too," said Morrow. "For the freshmen it is great. They have no idea what to expect. They have no idea that being picked seventh in preseason and finishing third is a great accomplishment.
"We are excited about the future here. But we are living in the present. We want to do well now."
The Bisons are led by sophomore forward Miguel DaSilva, the only unanimous selection by the coaches and sports information directors for Atlantic Sun All-Conference First Team, and freshman forward Garret Pettis, the first ever Bisons' soccer player to earn an individual conference honor as Freshman of the Year. Pettis was also the only unanimous pick for the A-Sun All-Freshman Team and a Second Team All-Conference selection, the most postseason honors awarded to one Bisons' player in a single season.
Pettis enters the game as the leading scorer in the A-Sun with 11 goals, a Bisons team record.
As a team the Bisons lead the A-Sn in shots with 340, an average of 17.89 per game. They also lead in points with 106, an average of 5.58 per game, goals with 37 and assists with 32.
"Coaches talk about how players shoot the ball," said Morrow. "We have some guys who can shoot the ball extremely well.
"But shooting and finishing are not necessarily one in the same. You can strike a ball really hard, but if the keeper is reading what you are doing it is going to be a save."
The Bisons will play at 3 p.m. Thursday if they advance to the semifinals. The championship game is scheduled for Saturday.

After John Kerry lost a very winnable election in 2004, Democrats were worried that Republicans had gained an almost insurmountable lead in both technology and data analysis.
Progressive technology infrastructure was born in 2004, when we got our teeth kicked in, says Bryan Whitaker, COO of the NGP VAN, a privately held company that offers technology-based services to Democratic candidates.
Back in 2004, we had no counter to the rights consistent messaging machine. Fox News, talk radio, Drudge, etc. put out consistent, never-ending messages, and the left didnt have a viable response to that, he says. As we investigated ways to catch up, one thing we realized we should focus on is figuring out how to build up better grassroots efforts. The most persuasive way to influence someone is through person-to-person interactions, but how do you do that effectively, especially in off-year elections?
MORE ON NETWORK WORLD: Big data's biggest challenges
The answer ended up being technology. The Democratic Party started building databases with detailed voter information, started deploying data analytics tools, and quickly saw the possibilities of social media. Those advantages gave Democrats an edge in the 2012 election, where technology was widely credited with helping President Obama defeat Mitt Romney, particularly when Romneys big-data-driven poll monitoring network, dubbed Project Orca, crashed and burned on election day.
The right starts to close the gap
After the debacle of 2012, the right has been playing catch-up. Its latest tech effort is Para Bellum Labs, which the Republican National Committee refers to as a startup company housed in the RNC. Other Republican-leaning or Republican-sponsored tools include VoterGravity, which leverages mapping software from Esri to create more accurate voter targeting and volunteer walk lists; Data Trust, the rights Big Data tool; and i360, a rival Big Data platform sponsored by the Koch brothers.
Even with all of those efforts, the right is still behind in terms of technological know-how and savvy. And technologists on the right are often the first to admit this.
Ned Ryun, the CEO of VoterGravity, which bills itself as a center-right data-driven election tech platform, noted that culture is a big part of the problem. The biggest challenge of the center-right is not talent or technology, Ryun said. Our biggest weakness is a culture where important things like data and analysis are not emphasized. As a guy whos done grassroots campaigns in past and as a tech guy, as well, this worries me.
Tools like VoterGravity should help close the gap but only if the Democrats dont pull too far ahead with other innovations. One of the goals of VoterGravity is to eliminate what Ryun refers to as data loss. In this case, data loss refers not to the kind of loss associated with a security breach, but to all of the information volunteers collect when they interact with voters and then do nothing with.
The way it typically works is you have people going door to door, taking down notes in the margins of their walk sheets, but then once they get back to the office, those sheets are just left on a desk for someone else to enter into the database, Ryun said. The reality is that those notes are only rarely entered into databases, so all of that actionable voter intelligence is simply lost. With tools like VoterGravity, volunteers can enter this information on the fly into their smartphones and tablets.
Democrats have been capturing data like this for years now and are doing everything in their power to extend their tech lead.
The left leads in attracting tech talent
As Northeast Regional Press Secretary of Obama for America, Michael Czin had a front-row seat in 2012, seeing just how important technological innovations could be to an election. Today, Czin serves as the National Press Secretary of the Democratic National Committee, and he is one of the key movers behind the Democrats new technology platform, Project Ivy.
Project Ivy focuses on "four tools and strategies, a voter file and data warehouse, analytics infrastructure, field and marketing tools, and training and fostering a culture that cultivates further technological innovations.
Theres that term again, culture. Fostering a culture of innovation may well be the most important advantage the left has in the tech wars. Czin argues that even if the right catches up in terms of technology, the technology itself will be nearly useless unless there is a culture that values inclusion, expanding participation and the ability to use technology to apply those values to all levels of campaigns. Right now Republicans simply lack the technology and the culture to get the job done."
Whitaker of NGP VAN believes that culture has another advantage: the cultivation of talent.
We [the left] are establishing a pipeline of talent that the right cant match, Whitaker says. We attract technologists and data scientists from MIT, Harvard, Stanford, and all the top schools. We have progressive tech firms based in these cities, everywhere from Boston to D.C. to Oakland, California, and we know how to plug these people into campaigns where they can immediately start making a difference.
+ ALSO ON NETWORK WORLD 11 big data certifications that will pay off +
Czin agrees with this assessment and also believes that the reason Democrats attract more tech-savvy campaign workers and volunteers is policy. Young tech-savvy people can be put off by the perception that right is anti-gay, anti-immigrant, anti-women, and pro-gun.
Another point Czin makes is how each side regards technology. Republicans see technology as way to cover up deficiencies in policies or candidates, he says. Democrats look at technology much differently. Its another tool, one of many, not an end in itself.
What data is analyzed for political gain?
Political campaigns are a ideal place to put big data analytics into action. The data comes in all forms there's public data on who is registered to vote, there's data on people who voted in recent elections, and the two parties have their own databases on who contributed money or time in the past. Then there's all of the additional data collected by campaign workers as they canvass door-to-door or set up information booths at public events. So, big data allows a campaign to create a database of voters who would be likely to support a particular candidate, who would be likely to hold signs or host campaign events or contribute money. Then campaigns can drop geolocation data on top of that to get an idea of where to send campaign workers in order to hit the most potential voters.
Same with election day efforts to give people rides to the polls or to call people who might not have voted yet. In fact, Mitt Romney's election day system used smartphone technology to allow campaign workers at the polling places to access a database of likely Romney voters at that specific polling place. Romney volunteers could then check off the names of people who voted and people who had not yet voted would be contacted and urged to vote.
On top of that, big data helps a campaign with fundraising. For example, big data analytics allows a campaign to send targeted fundraising emails and then to analyze the effectiveness of each mailing. Is an email or a fundraising letter from Michelle Obama or Joe Biden to a certain demographic more effective than one from President Obama? That's what big data helps a campaign determine.
Tech only takes you so far
Anyone who tracks technology trends understands the pitfall of creating technology for technologys sake and not focusing on the problem that youre trying to solve.
Theres a dangerous perception on the right that if we build this great technology, well win, Ryun says. People forget that its only a tool.
Another tech challenge for the right, according to Ryun, is demographics. Many Republican volunteers and voters are older. Some of them downright fear technology, and if the people you count on for get-out-the-vote efforts wont or cant use the technology, what good is it?
Conversely, Czin and others on the left are hoping that technology and more accurate, data-driven voter targeting can help Democrats overcome one of their own biggest weaknesses in midterm elections: low turnout. Democrat-leaning voters tend to turn out in droves for marquee Presidential elections, but they then stay home during the midterms, which has a ripple effect. As Republicans rack up victory after victory at the state and local levels, they can arguably cede the White House for years to come and still have the policy advantage on the ground.
Thats a huge challenge for us, and were hoping we can study the data to learn how to change this dynamic, Czin said. We have historic information going back a decade or so in every state, and were using that data to figure out how to make informed and educated decisions about whom to spend time talking to, and what we need to do to get our supporters to the polls.
One thing were trying to do not just through technology, but institutionally, is change voting habits, Czin adds. If you voted in a Presidential year, youre more likely to vote in the next election.
That, of course, doesnt mean you actually will vote in the next election, but youre more likely to, and those are the people Democrats want to target.
A non-partisan platform could help democratize democracy
Even if the right is playing catch up in the tech arms race, it doesnt mean theyll lag behind indefinitely. Besides investing in their own data analytics, mapping, and targeting platforms, many candidates on the right are using the non-partisan platform from NationBuilder.
While originally developed as platform for political campaigns and non-profits, NationBuilder is now branching out to attract all sorts of organizations, from law firms to university alumni networks to restaurants. This could turn into a huge advantage as, say, marketing techniques coming out of the real estate sector are repurposed for political campaigns. The cross-pollination of tech innovation could lead to all sorts of techniques and tools that we cant even imagine yet.
NationBuilder is already impacting elections. Two of the best examples come from overseas. During the Scottish election for independence, both supporters and opponents of independence used NationBuilder, and the turnout ended up breaking all U.K. records at 85 percent. (The Liberal Democrats, part of the coalition opposing independence, also used the VAN product from NGP VAN.)
The Scottish Independence vote was a unique election, but the huge turnout points to the most likely impact of tools like NationBuilder: it could well level the tech playing field.
Another, perhaps better example, is how NationBuilder helped a small group of grassroots organizers knock off an entrenched incumbent to elect an independent candidate, Cathy McGowan, to Australias Parliament.
The most interesting thing about the McGowan election is that McGowan didnt drive it. The grassroots movement to replace incumbent Sophie Mirabella emerged first, and only after the movement had already gained momentum did it convince McGowan to run.
The McGowan election serves as a proof of concept for grassroots organizing, showing just how digital tools that simplify everything from fundraising to voter targeting to social media messaging can swing an election if leveraged to their fullest advantage.
