2012 U.S. Open -- Casey Martin qualifies for Olympic Club -- 14 years after his only major appearance there - ESPN - Martin, who finished in near darkness and admitted he probably should have stopped and resumed in the morning, won a lawsuit in 2001 filed against the PGA Tour that went to the Supreme Court, allowing him the use of a cart in competition under the Americans With Disabilities Act.

By how much it's hard to say. The first wave had Obama plus six, then later on MSNBC I saw plus 12, which I also saw here, at Business Insider. The Washington Post put it at nine.

On the presidential level, Wisconsin is a blue state. Let's look at a few numbers.

Pinterest For Business: More Effective Than Facebook? - HuffingtonPost.com - Alicia Ciccone - Business owners have spent plenty of time stressing about social media over the past few years, with the debate usually centering around Facebook and Twitter. But, as it turns out, Pinterest may offer the best bang for the click. Pinterest users are 79 percent more likely to purchase items they saw pinned to Pinterest boards versus what Facebook users see on their newsfeeds, according to a social commerce survey by SteelHouse.
