CBS Poll: Uncommitted Voters Say Obama Won Final Debate
UPDATED WITH FINAL RESULTS As in the previous debates, CBS News and Knowledge Networks have conducted a nationally representative poll of uncommitted voters to get their immediate reaction to tonight’s presidential debate.
In the first presidential debate, second presidential debate and vice presidential debate, more uncommitted voters said the Democratic candidate was the victor.
And tonight’s results have, by a wide margin, made it a clean sweep. Here are the final results of the survey of 638 uncommitted voters:
Fifty-three percent of the uncommitted voters surveyed identified Democratic nominee Barack Obama as the winner of tonight’s debate. Twenty-two percent said Republican rival John McCain won. Twenty-five percent saw the debate as a draw.
More uncommitted voters trusted Obama than McCain to make the right decisions about health care. Before the debate, sixty-one percent of uncommitted voters said that they trust Obama on the issue; after, sixty-eight percent said so. Twenty-seven percent trusted McCain to manage health care before the debate; thirty percent said so afterwards.
Sixty-four percent think Obama will raise their taxes, while fifty percent think McCain will.
Before the debate, fifty-four percent thought Obama shared their values. That percentage rose to sixty-four percent after the debate. For McCain, fifty-two percent thought he shared their values before the debate, and fifty-five percent thought so afterwards.
Before the debate, fifty percent said they trusted Obama to handle a crisis; that rose to sixty-three percent afterwards. More uncommitted voters trusted McCain on this – seventy-eight percent before the debate, eighty-two percent after the debate.
But more trusted Obama than McCain to make the right decisions about the economy. Before the debate, fifty-four percent of uncommitted voters said that they trust Obama to make the right decisions about the economy; after, sixty-five percent said that. Before, thirty-eight percent trusted McCain to do so, and forty-eight percent did after the debate.
Before the debate, sixty-six percent thought Obama understands voters’ needs and problems; that rose to seventy-six percent after the debate. For McCain, thirty-six percent felt he understands voters’ needs before the debate, and forty-eight percent thought so afterwards.
We will have a full report on the poll later on. Uncommitted voters are those who don’t yet know who they will vote for, or who have chosen a candidate but may still change their minds.
Solar energy can meet all the world’s energy demands: expert
by Staff Writers
Madrid (AFP) Sept 5, 2008
The world must speed up the deployment of solar power as it has the potential to meet all the world’s energy needs, the chairman of an industry gathering which wrapped up Friday in Spain said.
“The solar energy resource is enormous, and distributed all over the world, in all countries and also oceans,” said Daniel Lincot, the chairman of the five-day European Photovoltaic Solar Energy conference held in Valencia.
“There is thus an enormous resource available from photovoltaics, which can be used everywhere, and can in principle cover all the world energy demand from a renewable, safe and clean source,” he added.
Lincot, the research director of the Paris-based Institute for Research and Development of Photovoltaic Energy, said solar energy was growing rapidly but still made only a “negligible” contribution to total energy supply.
Last year the world production of photovoltaic models represented a surface of 40 square kilometres (16 square miles) while meeting the electrical consumption of countries like France or Germany would require 5,000 square kilometres, he said.
Under current scenarios, photovoltaic models will represent about 1,000 square kilometres by 2020 accounting for about only 3.0 percent of energy needs in the 27-member European Union, he added.
Over 200 scientists and solar power experts have signed a declaration calling on the accelerated deployment of photovoltaic power which was launched at the conference.
More than 3,500 experts and 715 sector firms took part in the gathering, billed as the largest conference ever organised in the field of photovoltaic conversion of solar energy.
Germany and Spain are the world leaders in solar energy power. Germany has 4,000 megawatts of installed capacity while Spain has 600 megawatts.

Shoes in church
I showered and shaved…… ……. I adjusted my tie.
I got there and sat……… …. In a pew just in time.
Bowing my head in prayer…… … As I closed my eyes.
I saw the shoe of the man next to me….. Touching my own. I sighed.
With plenty of room on either side…… I thought, ‘Why must our soles touch?’
It bothered me, his shoe touching mine… But it didn’t bother him much.
A prayer began: ‘Our Father’….. …….. I thought, ‘This man with the shoes, has no pride.
They’re dusty, worn, and scratched. Even worse, there are holes on the side!’
‘Thank You for blessings,’ the prayer went on.
The shoe man said…….. ……. A quiet ‘Amen.’
I tried to focus on the prayer. …… But my thoughts were on his shoes again.
Aren’t we supposed to look our best. When walking through that door?
‘Well, this certainly isn’t it,’ I thought, Glancing toward the floor.
Then the prayer was ended……. …. And the songs of praise began.
The shoe man was certainly loud…… Sounding proud as he sang.
His voice lifted the rafters….. …. His hands were raised high.
The Lord could surely hear. The shoe man’s voice from the sky.
It was time for the offering…. … And what I threw in was steep.
I watched as the shoe man reached…. Into his pockets so deep.
I saw what was pulled out……… . What the shoe man put in.
Then I heard a soft ‘clink’ . As when silver hits tin.
The sermon really bored me……… To tears, and that’s no lie.
It was the same for the shoe man… For tears fell from his eyes.
At the end of the service….. . As is the custom here.
W e must greet new visitors, And show them all good cheer.
But I felt moved somehow….. …….. And wanted to meet the shoe man.
So after the closing prayer…… . I reached over and shook his hand.
He was old and his skin was dark…. And his hair was truly a mess.
But I thanked him for coming…… … For being our guest.
He said, ‘My names’ Charlie….. ….. I’m glad to meet you, my friend.’
There were tears in his eyes……. But he had a large, wide grin.
‘Let me explain,’ he said…….. . Wiping tears from his eyes.
‘I’ve been coming here for months…. And you’re the first to say ‘Hi.”
‘I know that my appearance.. …….’Is not like all the rest.
‘But I really do try……… ……..’ To always look my best.’
‘I always clean and polish my shoes..’Before my very long walk.
‘But by the time I get here…….. .’They’re dirty and dusty, like chalk.’
My heart filled with pain… …….. And I swallowed to hide my tears.
As he continued to apologize… ….. For daring to sit so near
He said, ‘When I get here…….. …’I know I must look a sight.
‘But I thought if I could touch you..’Then maybe our souls might unite.’
I was silent for a moment…… ….. Knowing whatever was said
Would pale in comparison.. . I spoke from my heart, not my head.
‘Oh, you’ve touched me,’ I said……’And taught me, in part;
‘That the best of any man……… …’Is what is found in his heart.’
The rest, I thought,…. ……… … This shoe man will never know.
Like just how thankful I really am… That his dirty old shoe touched my soul

OCTOBER 1969: DAYS OF RAGE
In October 1969 A Faction Of The Students For A Democratic Society Called The Weathermen Organized
The “Days Of Rage” In Chicago. “In October 1969, the Weathermen, a faction of the Students for a Democratic
Society, created the previous year, led ‘four days of rage’ in Chicago. Declaring that the tide of ‘revolution’ was
rising, they led battles with the police and widespread window smashing in the city’s central business district.” (Josh
Barbanel, “Bernardine Dohrn Reportedly Seen On West Side,” The New York Times, 11/27/80)
Policemen And Demonstrators Were Injured During The “Days Of Rage.” “There the demonstrators charged
through police lines and engaged in a rock-throwing and window-smashing battle in which scores of policemen
and demonstrators were injured. Miss. Dohrn was arrested in that encounter. The demonstrations coincided with
the so-called Chicago Seven trial, in which a separate group of antiwar activists was accused of plotting the
disorders that occured during the 1968 Democratic Convention here.” (Nathaniel Sheppard, “2 In Weather Underground Are
Bargaining To Surrender,” The New York Times, 11/24/80)
The “Days Of Rage” Rioters Wore The Vietnamese Flag On Their Backs And Smashed Homes And Store
Windows. “On Oct. 8, 1969, the first day of what Weatherman had billed as its ‘Days of Rage,’ a group of about
300 antiwar demonstrators, wearing helmets and dungaree jackets with the Vietcong flag sewn on the back and
carrying clubs, charged from a bonfire in Lincoln Park into a neighboring area, smashing the windows of stores,
homes and automobiles. ” (Nathaniel Sheppard, “2 In Weather Underground Are Bargaining To Surrender,” The New York Times, 11/24/80)
After The Leaders Of The Weathermen Went Into Hiding, They Changed Their Name To The Weather
Underground. “The police charged that one of the leaders of the ‘days of rage’ was Miss. Dohrn. After the riots in
Chicago Miss. Dohrn went underground with the rest of the leadership of the Weathermen. The name was later
changed to the Weather Underground. ” (Josh Barbanel, “Bernardine Dohrn Reportedly Seen On West Side,” The New York Times, 11/27/80)
MARCH 6, 1970: GREENWICH VILLAGE TOWNHOUSE EXPLOSION
On March 6, 1970 A Bomb In A Weather Underground Safe House Exploded Killing Three People. “When
the Manhattan townhouse on West 11th Street belonging to the father of the Weatherman Cathlyn Wilkerson blew
up on March 6, 1970, sending Ms. Wilkerson and Ms. Boudin fleeing underground and killing three of their
confederates, the Weathermen had been making a nasty antipersonnel bomb out of ‘hundreds of roofing nails
taped around dozens of sticks of dynamite.’” (Annie Gottlieb, “Inside The Explosion,” The New York Times, 7/13/86)
Weather Underground Member, Cathlyn Wilkerson, Pleaded Guilty To Possessing Explosives That Killed
Three People. “Radical activist Cathlyn Platt Wilkerson pleaded guilty Friday to charges she possessed the
dynamite that killed three of her friends and destroyed a Greenwich Village townhouse allegedly being used as a
bomb factory. Ms. Wilkerson, 35, once a member of the Weather Underground, appeared in state Supreme Court
in Manhattan 10 days after she ended 10 years of hiding and surrendered. She quietly answered ‘yes’ when
asked by Justice Harold Rothwax if she had ‘knowingly possessed dynamite with intent to use it against the
property of others’ in 1970. Ms. Wilkerson faces up to seven years in prison when she is sentenced Oct. 24.” (”Ex
Fugitive Pleads Guilty In Fatal Townhouse Blast,” The Associated Press, 7/18/80)
Weather Underground Member, Kathy Boudin, Was In The Greenwich Home When The Explosion
Occurred; She Fled The Scene After The Accident. “Ms. Wilkerson fled after the townhouse was destroyed by
three explosions on March 6, 1970. Police said the building housed a bomb factory. Rescuers found her and
another woman, believed to be Kathy Boudin, trapped in the rubble of the townhouse. The women then vanished.
Ms. Boudin’s whereabouts remain unknown.” (”Ex Fugitive Pleads Guilty In Fatal Townhouse Blast,” The Associated Press, 7/18/80)
“Killed In The Blast Were Theodore Gold, 23; Diana Oughton, 28; And A Man Who Has Never Been
Identified.” (”Ex Fugitive Pleads Guilty In Fatal Townhouse Blast,” The Associated Press, 7/18/80)
Wilkerson Was Sentenced To A Three Year Prison Term For Her Role In The Killing Of Three Weather
Underground Members On March 6, 1970. “Radical Cathlyn Wilkerson, who hid from authorities for a decade,
began a three-year prison term Thursday for building bombs to protest the Vietnam War. Ms. Wilkerson, who was
sentenced Oct. 28, appeared outside the courtroom of state Supreme Court Justice Harold Rothwax in Manhattan
with her 3-year-old daughter and the child’s father. ‘I remain committed to fighting to change our world because I
believe the beauty and productivity of the human spirit cannot be contained by the few who rule with greed,
selfishness and cruelty,’ she said, hands trembling and eyes watering… Ms. Wilkerson was charged with felony
possession of dynamite, a charge that stemmed from a March 6, 1970, explosion that wrecked her father’s
Greenwich Village townhouse, killing three of her associates. The house was being used by Ms. Wilkerson and
her friends in the Weather Underground as a bomb factory. Ms. Wilkerson fled the burning building with another
Weather Underground member, Kathy Boudin, before police arrived — and remained underground until July 8.”
(Paula Schwed, “Es-Radical Leader Starts 3 Year Prison Term,” United Press International, 1/15/81)
The Weathermen Were Planning On Bombing Fort Dix Before The Bomb Accidentally Exploded In Their
Safe House. “On the same date in 1970, an explosion ripped apart a townhouse in Greenwich Village that was a
safe house for the Weathermen, a leftist group, as the group prepared an improvised explosive device that was to
be set off at Fort Dix to protest the Vietnam War.” (Sarah Garland, “Times Square, Consulate Bomb Connections Sought,” The New York
Sun, 3/7/08)
A Former Member Talked About Plans To Bomb An Officer’s Event At Fort Dix. FORMER MEMBER OF
THE WEATHER UNDERGROUND, MARK RUDD: “The group that was led by Terry in that house on west 11th
street was building a bomb. They had decided to set off the bomb at a noncommissioned officers dance at Fort
Dix. The idea being that there are no innocent in this war of aggression.” (The Free History Project, “The Weather Underground, ”

OCTOBER 20, 1981: BRINKS MURDERS
Sgt. Edward O’Grady And Officer Waverly Brown Were Killed When Former Members Of The Weather
Underground Attacked An Armored Car. “The slain policemen, Sgt. Edward O’Grady, 32, of Pearl River, N.Y.,
and Officer Waverly Brown, 45, of Spring Valley, N.Y., were said to be the first police officers ever killed in the line
of duty in Rockland County, where the terrors of urban guerrilla movements and incidents like radical bombings
are as alien as foreign wars.” (Robert McFadden, “‘Weather’ Fugitive Is Seized In Killings,” The New York Times, 10/22/81)
Peter Paige Was a Brinks Guard Who Died Defending The Armored Car. “Speaking before Judge David S.
Ritter passed sentence, Mr. Gribetz said Miss Boudin came to Rockland County ‘knowing there would be a
robbery’ and that ‘other participants would be armed.’ Therefore, he said, she is as responsible for the death of
Peter Paige, the slain Brink’s guard, ‘as the person who fired the lethal bullet.’” (James Feron, “Kathy Boudin Given 20 Years
To Life In Prison,” The New York Times, 5/4/84)
Judith Clark And David Gilbert Were Sentenced To Three Consecutive 25 Year Terms For The Brinks
Murders. “Three radicals described by a judge as unrepentent and calculating killers were sentenced Thursday to
75 years to life in prison for murdering three people in the $1.6 million Brink’s armored car holdup two years ago.
‘I harbor no illusions about any of these defendants. They hold society in contempt and have no respect for
human life,’ said Orange County Judge David Ritter. He said the armored car robbery was ‘a cold, calculated and
deliberate plan.’ Society must be protected from ‘these defendants and the violence they represent,’ he said.
Authorities said the arrests in the Brink’s robbery blew the lid off a ‘family’ of terrorists. Judith Clark, 33, David
Gilbert, 39, and Kuwasi Balagoon, 36, were not in court when Ritter imposed three consecutive 25-year-to-life
terms for the murders and concurrent 12 1/2 -to-25 year terms for the robbery. But they were said to be listening
to the proceedings over a speaker system in a holding pen.” (Eileen Putnam, “Convicted Radicals Get 75 Years To Life,” The
Associated Press, 10/6/83)
“Kathy Boudin Was Sentenced Today To 20 Years To Life In Prison For Her Role In The 1981 Brink’s
Holdup In Which A Guard And Two Police Officers Were Slain.” (James Feron, “Kathy Boudin Given 20 Years To Life In
Prison,” The New York Times, 5/4/84)
Judith Clark Was A Member Of The Weathermen. “Member of Weathermen Group. She said she had seen
them distributing leaflets, about ‘underprivileged countries, Africa.’ Miss Clark’s first known involvement in radical
causes was in 1969 when she was a sophomore at the University of Chicago. As a member of the radical
Weathermen group, she participated in several demonstrations, including a charge - with 100 helmeted, clubswinging
women - on an armed forces induction center. Miss Clark was expelled from the university.” (Raymond
Bonner, “Judith Clark’s Espousal Of Causes Traced To ‘69,” The New York Times, 10/23/81)
Katherine Boudin Was A “Fugitive Weather Leader.” “A massive manhunt expanded throughout the Northeast
yesterday in the wake of a bloody Brink’s robbery in New York. Federal and local investigators focused on the
possibility that the crime was committed by a fusion of a militant white Weather Underground gang and a black
urban terrorist group implicated in a string of attacks on police officers. At the same time, Katherine Boudin, a
fugitive Weather leader arrested in the case, was identified by a newspaper reporter as the woman who shared
her Manhattan apartment for the past several years.” (Kathy Sawyer, “Authorities Looking Into A Fusion Of Weather Gang, Black
Terrorists,” The Washington Post, 10/23/81)
“Boudin, 38, A Fugitive Since A Greenwich Village Bomb Incident In 1970; Judith Clark, Another Member
Of The Weather Underground, And Two Men Were Arrested As They Fled The Bungled Robbery, In Which
Two Police Officers And A Brink’s Guard Were Killed. The Recovered Loot Totaled $1.6 Million.” (Kathy
Sawyer, “Authorities Looking Into A Fusion Of Weather Gang, Black Terrorists,” The Washington Post, 10/23/81)
