Extractions: November primer: Statewide, King County and Seattle initiatives Washington voters will consider six statewide ballot initiatives in the Nov. 7 election - the largest number of citizen measures since 1914. The proposals address everything from how we teach our children to how much we pay teachers and want to invest in roads and highways. One measure would limit property taxes and repeal some recent fee and tax increases. Voters in Seattle, on the other hand, are being asked to raise their property taxes for parks, wetlands restoration and ballfields - facilities that would be available to whoever visits the city. And King County voters will consider whether to approve a sales-tax increase for Metro bus service - a tax that would be paid by whoever shops in the county.

Extractions: Campaign On the Net September 29 , 2000 Why California Voters Have It Best By Michael Cornfield Democracy needs voters who are competent enough to decide what's best for them. When enough people are informed and engaged, the political system works. Both conditions must apply: the best-informed person in the world doesn't help democracy if he is not sharing what he knows with others. And the biggest talker in the world doesn't help if he knows little about his subject. Californians this year can take advantage of two terrific Web sites. One, www.calvoter.org , will help them get informed about their electoral choices. The other, www.ballotmaker.com , will help them find other people to discuss those choices. These sites set the (pardon the pun) gold standard for online voter education. (Ballotmaker is set up for Colorado and Oregon as well as the Golden State.) They are non-partisan, up-to-date, and -in contrast to the otherwise outstanding Minnesota E-Democracy, www.e-democracy.org

Extractions: Battle of the Signs TAMPA - When Mark Loren spotted enemy headquarters stationed in Tampa, the 42-year-old tile contractor sensed his duty. He planted himself on the sidewalk directly across the street from the Gore-Lieberman billboard that loomed above, and undertook an old Tampa tradition: sign-waving. Loren grabbed a Bush-Cheney placard from his pick-up truck, hoisted it in the air with a wooden stake and waved at passing motorists. "Hey, yeah!" he yelled to honking supporters, flashing a giddy grin. "This is the first time I've done this," said Loren, who lives in a Tampa suburb. "It's a riot." Come election time, sign-waving enthusiasts are as sure as sunshine in this central Florida city. Every candidate -from president down to county commissioner-seems to have troops willing to brave humiliation. But this year, the presidential posters are being waved with extra vigor. The state of Florida is crucial to winning the election and the deciding factor will be central Florida, from Orlando to Tampa, pundits say. In these cities, voters know each ballot counts. They will make the difference in electing Gore, who some Floridians call "a phony" and "an alien," or Bush, "the lying drunk."

It teaches children who are still in their formative years how to alter their behavior and control their anger.

Extractions: Published on Monday, November 27, 2000 Surveys find theory and practice do not match CAROLYN ONG Two surveys of regional informa tion technology professionals and companies by the South East Asia Regional Computer Confederation (Searcc) have found a mismatch in IT skills taught at universities and colleges compared with industry needs. Searcc secretary-general Robert Iau said the surveys indicated regional universities had not been producing graduates with the required skills. "The universities are teaching database administration and presentation skills when companies want customer-relationship management and Internet development skills," Mr Iau said. "Organisations want to hire more than just good tech skills. They want tech professionals with certain non-technical skills which they consider essential, such as the ability to plan strategically, do sales and marketing and customer service. "There are major short-falls of such talent across the region." Searcc was formed in 1976 by the Hong Kong Computer Society, Indonesia Computer Society, Malaysian National Computer Confederation, Philippine Computer Society, Singapore Computer Society and the Computer Association of Thailand to promote and examine the use of computers in the region. It has 14 Asia-Pacific member countries. The nine countries participating in the two surveys were India, Indonesia, Japan, New Zealand, Pakistan, the Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, and Thailand.

Extractions: Published on Thursday, October 12, 2000 REACTION Stern warnings 'offensive and inappropriate' ANGELA LI Claims by Mr Tung that there is too much "hostility, quarrelling and criticism" in the community have drawn a strong reaction from legislators. Non-affiliated Margaret Ng Ngoi-yee, representing the legal profession, said the remarks were offensive. She said it was highly inappropriate for Mr Tung to end his address with such "patriarch-style". She said Mr Tung had expressed some sincerity and a wish to discuss, for example, a more accountable government. But she said: "I am extremely surprised he should have ended a generally positive piece with such a destructive set of comments as if he was going to teach someone a lesson. "I really don't understand why he added the last part to his speech and used such sternness in its delivery. I think it is a great pity, wholly unnecessary and fairly offensive." She said the legislature existed to monitor government policies and to raise criticism if members thought the Government was not performing well. "So for a Chief Executive to come to the Legislative Council to tell us that we should not waste time in criticism, but should go on doing constructive things, I think, is exceedingly improper," Ms Ng said. In the second last paragraph of his 43-page address, Mr Tung said: "I have noticed in recent times a change in community attitudes. People are more inclined to adopt a mood of scepticism, and criticism - even belittling the capabilities of our own people . . .

Extractions: Massachusetts Bishops Urge Catholics To "Stand For Life" by Voting For Candidates "Who Stand With Us" Embargoed till October 20, 2000 OCTOBER 20, 2000 BOSTON, MA – The Bishops of the four Roman Catholic dioceses in Massachusetts have issued an election statement calling on Catholics to exercise their "moral obligation" to vote and to recognize the "absolute centrality" of the protection of human life when choosing candidates on Election Day, Tuesday, November 7. Faithful Citizenship in Massachusetts : "It is our responsibility to vote for candidates who will promote life and the culture of life over the culture of death." The statement emphasizes that support of abortion and euthanasia by any candidate "is always wrong and can never be justified." Besides abortion and euthanasia, the Bishops see parental choice in education, affordable health care, and protection against violence as election issues particularly relevant this year. The Bishops, representing the Archdiocese of Boston and the Dioceses of Springfield, Worcester, and Fall River, urge Catholics "to become informed about the candidates and the issues so that our choices will be based on the truth and will reflect the principles of our faith and our nation."
