Something Big Is Coming... and It's Going to Be BAD

Something major is occuring in the markets today. The US economy peaked in 2007.

This same environment is occurring today. Only this time the collapse is sovereign in nature: entire...

Obama: Something is wrong with country's politics (que the tiny violin BarF Alert!)

There is something wrong with our politics." His toughly worded message — he said there was frustration in his voice, in case anyone missed the point — came amid a series of polls showing that people are disgusted with political dysfunction and are dispensing blame all around, including on Obama. Obama aired his frustration with the ways of Washington at an event in Michigan before pivoting to his re-election campaign and...

Rebuilding Something Better

But once we clear away the wreckage, the real question is what we will build in its place. Even as we rescue this economy from a full-blown crisis, For if we do not seize this moment to confront the weaknesses that have plagued our economy for decades, we will consign ourselves and our children to future crises, sluggish growth, or both. To build that foundation, we must lower the health-care costs that are driving us into debt, create the jobs of the future within our borders, give our workers the skills and training they need to compete for those jobs,...

New Report Urges Return to Basics In Teaching Math

...In a report to be released today, the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, which represents 100,000 educators from prekindergarten through college, will give ammunition to traditionalists who believe schools should focus heavily and early on teaching such fundamentals as multiplication tables and long division. ...The council's advice is striking because in 1989 it touched off the so-called math wars by promoting open-ended problem solving over drilling.
