After spending more than $600 million on computers to facilitate a high-tech census, the US government has decided to go back to the old-fashioned way of counting the 300 million census forms — by pencil and paper.
CNN reports that this change will add an estimated $3 billion to the cost of collecting data as 600,000 temporary workers will be needed to manually record the census information by hand.
You'd think in this day and age, the government would want to embrace technology and use the next two years to implement a more accurate way to record the data with computers, instead of spending billions of the taxpayers dollars on going back to the old-school method.

The day has finally arrived! Taking my cue from
PartySugar, I have planned a blowout Fleet Party for the
BSG premiere tonight. I've made some special menu items including Cylon CupCakes, Cloud 9 Mojitos, and Caprica Shots for our BSG drinking game, which is reminiscent of the
Sarah Connor Chronicles game we played a few months ago. Keep an eye out every Monday for my BSG recaps and quizzes, plus this coming Monday, we'll announce which quiz taker will be
bringing home the BSG Propaganda posters. So much going on! Will you be celebrating the premiere tonight? Tell me how after you check out my Fleet Party slideshow, that's prepped and ready to launch!

I already knew that senior citizens would rather play the Wii over bridge, but did you know that Wiihabilitation is also taking the country by storm? For James Mann, a patient at Wake Med Health Park in Raleigh, N.C., playing the Nintendo Wii is not only a great source of fun, but it's also helping him recover from a stroke. Shown here with recreational therapist Elizabeth Penny (see pics below), James takes part in games of Wii baseball to help him with his balance, coordination and the strengthening of his arms — how great is this?! And as soon as I get my hands on Wii Fit, I'll be working on my abs, butt and thighs!
