The Big Flip - A Deep Dive look at the "Supply Side" of the 2020 Presidential election in Pennsylvania and its Implications

Synopsis

In the wake of the 2020 Presidential Election, it seems to have become “politically incorrect” to raise questions about election integrity. This is unfortunate, as it is fundamental to our democracy that legitimate concerns about mail-in voting processes or other issues of trust be voiced and debated.This book meticulously documents the extraordinary saga of mail-in voting in Pennsylvania’s 2020 Presidential Election, highlighting some worrisome aspects. Though Donald Trump had won this pivotal state in a close contest against Hilary Clinton in 2016, the state flipped back to the Democrats in 2020 in an election distinguished by the introduction of no-excuse mail-in voting. Quantitative analysis is a core component of the discussion—a multifaceted exploration of mail-in voting patterns.The quantitative discussion is merged with an examination of contextual and circumstantial details. The kinds of irregularities that “no-excuse” mail-in voting may facilitate are considered as well.The data exploration reveals a remarkable landscape — a poorly illuminated space from which arose odd statistical phenomena — a twilight zone, of sorts. These puzzling phenomena are consistent with hypothetical cyber breach or election misconduct scenarios, although there is no direct evidence of a compromised election. For instance, a surprisingly large percentage of Pennsylvania mail-in ballots requested by and sent to Republican voters for the 2020 election were never returned and tallied.Multiple technical mishaps tied to the state’s obsolete and error-prone database management systems made the landscape yet more murky. Sly legal maneuvering (lawfare) by the Democratic party, seeking partisan advantages going into the election, cast an additional shadow over the process. The book concludes with a discussion of what can be done to develop more secure and trustworthy mail-in voting processes. Pennsylvania’s experience and the lessons we can draw from it should be of interest to any citizen concerned about election integrity and credibility and ways to bolster these going forward.

Sounds of Other Shores - The...

Andrew J. Eisenberg

Sounds of Other Shores takes an ethnographic ear to the history of transoceanic stylistic appropriation in the Swahili taarab music of the Kenyan coast. Swahili taarab, a form of sung poetry that emerged as East Africa's first mass-mediated popular music in the 1930s, is a famously cosmopolitan form, rich in audible influences from across the Indian Ocean. But the variants of the genre that emerged in the Kenyan coastal city of Mombasa during the twentieth century feature particularly dramatic, even flamboyant, appropriations of Indian and Arab sonic gestures and styles. Combining oral history, interpretive ethnography, and musical analysis, Sounds of Other Shores explores how Swahili-speaking Muslims in twentieth-century Mombasa derived pleasure and meaning from acts of transoceanic musical appropriation, arguing that these acts served as ways of reflecting on and mediating the complexities and contradictions associated with being "Swahili" in colonial and postcolonial Kenya. The result is a musical anthropology of Kenyan Swahili subjectivity that reframes longstanding questions about Swahili identity while contributing to broader discussions about identity and citizenship in Africa and the Indian Ocean world.

Quetzalcoatl - The Mesoamerican...

Kelly Mass

It’s a hard name to pronounce, but hey, it’s been the legend of Native American peoples for centuries.
Was it a man? Was it a god? Was it a white person? Or was it some animal or strange thing?
Quetzalcoatl is an Aztec divine being whose name originates from the Nahuatl language and meaning "valuable snake" or "Quetzal-feathered Snake."
"Quetzalcoatl, in its actual sense, means'snake of valuable plumes,' but in the allegorical sense, 'best of men,'" said Ixtlilxóchitl, a descendant of Aztec royalty and history expert of the Nahua people, in the 17th century.
Quetzalcoatl was related to gods of the wind, the world Venus, the early morning, merchants, and arts, crafts, and knowledge amongst the Aztecs, whose beliefs are the best recorded in historic sources.
He was also the Aztec priesthood's client god, and also the god of research study and knowledge.
In addition to the gods Tlaloc, Tezcatlipoca, and Huitzilopochtli, Quetzalcoatl was just one of the most considerable gods in the Aztec temple. Quetzalcoatl's ally Tlaloc (the divine being of rain) and Quetzalcoatl's twin and psychopomp, Xolotl, the dog-headed soul-guide for the dead, are 2 other gods represented by the world Venus.
Apart from that, many people in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints are convinced that Quetzalcoatl was the name for Jesus, who, according to their record, the Book of Mormon, came to the American continent.
In this brief book, we will discuss all those convictions, myths, and background stories, so you can be informed and make up your own mind.
