For example, a Cook Political Report poll of registered voters released this week found Mr. McCain beats Mrs. Clinton, 45 percent to 41 percent. But Mr. Obama beats Mr. McCain, 45 percent to 43 percent. The latest Washington Post/ABC News poll found similar results. Mr. Obama also has the highest approval rating of any major candidate among independents, 62 percent, according to a...

So you can do nice Ruby-like proc names, such as valid? proc_with_side_effect! Interesting.

This is a screaming fast way of loading data into a table, and it is easier than SQLLDR, plus you can keep your foreign key constraints etc.. I used this at United eWay to replace some pages that were taking several hours to load data from a CSV file. The new script took a second or two instead of more than 18+ hours to run (and it actually never completed). Combined with the MERGE SQL comm...
