Possible Reasons for Sarah Palin's Resignation and Other Schadenfreude

“So why did Palin quit? It had to be one of these options, and definitely not something like an embezzlement scandal.   I mean, to embezzle something, wouldn’t you first have to be able to spell it?”

“Her statement was incoherent, bizarre and juvenile. The text, as posted on Gov. Palin’s official website, uses 2,549 words and 18 exclamation points. Lincoln freed the slaves with 719 words and nary an exclamation; Mr. Jefferson declared our independence in 1,322 words and, again, no exclamation points. Nixon resigned the presidency in 1,796 words — still no exclamation points. Gov. Palin capitalized words at random – whole words, like “TO,” “HELP,” and “AND,” and the first letter of “Troops.”

The grammar in the statement on her official website is pretty horrifying. Between the heavy-handed use of ellipsis and exclamation points, random capitalization, and poor syntax, I could probably write a book on it. Nonetheless, it was probably transcribed by some member of the staff who sadly doesn’t know any better. Besides, Sarah Palin has a Bachelor’s in journalism. Surely she knows better than that, right? Right

The statement was indeed “incoherent, bizarre and juvenile,” but what’s even more baffling is that this woman is so self-obsessed that she considers such a verbose and superfluous speech necessary. That verbal diarrhea she spewed at her measly audience was not just a joke; it was a waste of time. Get up, say your piece, and get out. But she felt it necessary to talk about the history of Alaska, basketball, and, of course, her children. As much as she says she’s against it, making an unnecessarily big deal about her resignation and bringing up the attacks on your baby is “politics as usual” in the world of Sarah Palin. Just go away already.

Besides, it doesn’t really matter what you said or how you said it, Sarah Palin, you’re still going to end up next to Jacko on the front cover of US Weekly with rumors of affairs, pregnancy, and who knows what else.

Sarah Palin to resign by the end of the month.

WASILLA, Alaska - At an 11:00 a.m. press conference today, Governor Sarah Palin announced that she would not seek a second term as governor. The governor continued, saying that by the end of the month she would resign from the governorship. 

Palin announced that she will transfer power to Lt. Governor Sean Parnell. Parnell will be sworn in during the upcoming governor’s picnic in Fairbanks. An emotionally choked-up Parnell said he plans to keep all state commissioners and continue to pursue a natural gas pipeline.

Dinosaur mummy yields its secrets

A remarkably well-preserved fossil of a dinosaur has been analysed by scientists writing in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B.

They describe how the fossil’s soft tissues were spared from decay by fine sediments that formed a mineral cast.

Tests have shown that the fossil still holds cell-like structures - but their constituent proteins have decayed.

The team says the cellular structure of the dinosaur’s skin was similar to that of dinosaurs’ modern-day descendants.

A member of the duck-billed hadrosaur family, the fossil was found in North Dakota in the US and has been nicknamed “Dakota”.

They believe that the dinosaur fell into a watery grave, with little oxygen present to speed along the decay process. Meanwhile, very fine sediments reacted with the soft tissues of the animal, forming a kind of cement.

As a result, the 66 million-year-old fossil still retains some of the organic matter of the original dinosaur, mixed in with the minerals.

The team found that although the proteins that made up the hadrosaur’s skin had degraded, the amino acid building blocks that once made up the proteins were still present.

“We’re looking at the altered products of proteins from the skin of this animal, locked within the three dimensional mineralised skin,” Dr [Phil] Manning [of the University of Manchester] told BBC News.

“You’re looking at cell-like structures; you slice through this and you’re looking at the cell structure of dinosaur skin. That is absolutely gobsmacking.”
