      If Only Arizona Were the Real Problem
      “If Only Arizona Were the Real Problem - http://nyti.ms/cCGXNv#p2 #gop #tcot #teaparty #TopProg #ocra ” 
      The real problem is that costs exceed income for all but the top few percent and a very few lucky exceptions.

      Foundations Help Bring Discipline to Philanthropy
      “Foundations Help Bring Discipline to Philanthropy (NYT) http://nyti.ms/g2uKDS”   They are looking, are they finding?
      How about a service to find small projects and connect them to donors.  I don't want them to touch the donations. Perhaps they could be supported by a separate donation stream or a foundation grant.

      Paul Krugman  hit the bullseye with this one.  Look here too:

      When a Parent’s ‘I Love You’ Means ‘Do as I Say’
      More than 50 years ago, the psychologist Carl Rogers suggested that simply loving our children wasn’t enough. We have to love them unconditionally, he said — for who they are, not for what they do.

      Is this old truths returning or is it revolution? Likely it is both. It is very far from spare the rod, spoil the child.  I will look for more.

    WikiLeaks Archive — Cables Uncloak U.S. Diplomacy
    A huge trove of State Department communiqués offers an extraordinary look at the inner workings, and sharp elbows, of diplomacy.
    (  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WikiLeaks#History  ) Hmm.

      The Party of National Security?
      The world’s nuclear wannabes should send a thank you note to Senator Jon Kyl, who is trying to block ratification of a new arms control treaty with Russia.  Kyl is not our friend but this does not follow.  This is reduction not non-proliferation.

      Envy is all I saw.  Perfume adds are the only way for print to be as offensive as activeX , Java and Flash. Junk mail does not rise to spam.

I am convinced of the proposition. The reviewer has the right of it.
A review said of one of my aunts books:
"This subject desperately needs a book. This is not it."

    Leslie Nielsen, Actor, Dies at 84
    Mr. Nielsen was a Canadian-born actor who in middle age tossed aside three decades of credibility in dramatic and romantic roles to make a new career as a comic actor.  I never consciously saw his films. The lines are pervasive.

    A Note to Readers: The Decision to Publish
    The articles published today and in coming days are based on thousands of United States embassy cables, the daily reports from the field intended for the eyes of senior policy makers in Washington.

    I am glad the Times agrees with me.  I am willing to let them work. If I have questions the answers will be available.

    Now a Giant, Google Works to Retain Nimble Minds
    The pace at a big company is far slower than at a start-up, a difference that matters to the entrepreneurial spirit. Google is faced with a mature functionality. The adventures are getting rare.  They need new worlds to conquer.

      Showing Gay Teens a Happy Future
      A new online video channel is reaching out to teenagers who are bullied at school for being gay. The message: life really does get better after high school.

      Life will be very much better with you in it.  I have many intentions. I can hardly call them plans. 
      I see that Obama has frozen federal wages for two years.  The progressive blogs I look at are ready to riot.  I was about to join in when the thought occurred to me that this is a terrible act if one expects inflation as the Republicans do. I expect vigorous deflation.
      Social security is indexed. I expect civil service wages are also indexed. In a deflation the index goes negative and indexed payments shrink. You may soon thank Obama for this freeze.

      As of November 1 it was still vapour-ware. No meaningful reports since.
