Confusing schtuff
Sep. 18th, 2008 10:47 pmSo, since I'm going to be out of town for the big November elections, I wanted to apply to vote-by-mail. I went to the California state website and read the guidebook, downloaded the two applications I apparently needed (one for Statewide elections and one for County elections). Then I go to the LA County website and see there's an online application, so I fill that out and shred the paper ones I printed. Question is, will the ballot(s) I get be for the county of Los Angeles only, the state of California, and/or the national presidential election? I'm worried I won't get all that I need. Has anyone else done this process before? Even if you're in a different state, maybe the process is similar... *shrug* any help would be appreciated. Of course, I'm going to call the County Registrar tomorrow for "official" answers, provided I talk to a real person and not an automated system.
Question to the general populous: How do you organize your foreign-language music? For example, I have a lot of music by Japanese artists. iTunes supports Japanese in the titles, artists, and lyrics, and I can set my Smart Playlists to find the artists that way... but is it always the best way? Should I use the romanized names instead? And if so, should I do it the Western Way (Hikaru Utada) or the Asian way (Utada Hikaru)?
