California recall blocked over voting method delay
A three judge California federal panel postponed the October 7 recall vote against Gov. Gray Davis due to counties still using punch card ballots. The delay could push the election to March when electronic voting is widespread, a move the right wing argues against. The piece also critiques Dick Grasso at the NYSE, noting his $139.5 million pay package plus $48 million in deferred money, and riffs on political stances and the War on Terror. It ends with an editor's note about Grasso's resignation and Don Kaul's retirement.

She notes rapid settlement expansion, bypass roads, and tightened controls in the West Bank and Gaza, arguing only a two-state solution based on 1967 lines can end the cycle of violence and deliver lasting peace.
