      Study Rethinks Importance of Kindergarten Teachers
      “Study Rethinks Importance of Kindergarten Teachers - http://nyti.ms/aqkrEU” 
      A reasonable report by a person who has difficulty reading the source material.
      "Obviously, great kindergarten teachers are not going to start making $320,000 anytime soon. Still, school administrators can do more than they’re doing.
      They can pay their best teachers more, as Pittsburgh soon will, and give them the support they deserve. Administrators can fire more of their worst teachers, as Michelle Rhee, the Washington schools chancellor, did last week. Schools can also make sure standardized tests are measuring real student skills and teacher quality, as teachers’ unions have urged.
      Given today’s budget pressures, finding the money for any new programs will be difficult. But that’s all the more reason to focus our scarce resources on investments whose benefits won’t simply fade away."
      Government is not a for profit business.
      We remember the lessons but not the teaching. 
      That makes it easy to be a reactionary.

      U.S. Seeks Stricter Limits on Food Ads Aimed at Children
      “U.S. Seeks Stricter Limits on Food Ads Aimed at Children - http://nyti.ms/kMXxy5” 
      This is just a baby step. 
      Regulatory action should be much stronger.

      Is Sugar Toxic?
      “Is Sugar Toxic? - http://nyti.ms/hLYgkY” 
      I checked.      It is.
      As I was taught in HS chemistry and biology, the human gut breaks sucrose into glucose and fructose.  
      This article unambiguously states that fructose is toxic.
      Sugar should be as regulated as ethanol.
      Sugar is a close precursor of ethanol, the alcohol that is drunk.
      Ethanol is perhaps less toxic.

      Gerald McEntee Energized by Anti-Union Movement
      “Gerald McEntee Energized by Anti-Union Movement - http://nyti.ms/fjuIe2” 
      Bold talk.  
      I want to see more action from this union.  
      Fear has motivated the counter attack from the Republicans.

      I have a vague interest.  
      I live in what is still an egalitarian democracy.
      Those distant cousins have very strange domestic customs.

      ‘IN A PERFECT WORLD’
      “‘IN A PERFECT WORLD’ - http://nyti.ms/m0DeQX” 

      Money and art lead a complex dance.
      If I understood it better I would already be rich.  
      I am working on understanding it with that in mind.

    It should not have happened.
    The next step is to hold someone accountable.
    Who?
