House Leaders Bar Earmarks to For-Profit Companies
“Congressional House Leaders Bar Earmarks to For-Profit Companies - http://nyti.ms/9YfpyQ Great move, will they follow through on it?”
This is a really terrible move. It defunds all the federal granting authorities or it should if they mean it. If they do not mean it, this is window dressing at it's very worst. Broad brush legislation is rarely a good idea.

A Man Who Loved Insects
A whip scorpion. Dr. Eisner’s nature vision was the ultimate pansensory superpower: visual, aural, tactile, chemical, and almost too big to hold.I would like to learn of these people before their demise. Examining the world is the best way to begin to learn and to extend knowledge.There is not enough time in a life to learn everything from nature.Nature is where knowledge begins and where more can be found.

Rise in Online Classes Flares Debate About Quality
Though proponents of online education say the course offerings are rich, skeptics say corners are being cut in an effort to save money.The only possible response to this is Yes.A course development is utterly dependent on the students.The students have very little input in an online offering.For a developed course of fixed content it can work.Such courses are very little fun.

Advice From General McChrystal: Listen, Learn and Lead
“Advice From General McChrystal: Listen, Learn and Lead - http://nyti.ms/egQREo”What I missed in this is the fact that a leader knows what the destination is. Losing that knowledge is terminal.I suspect that the US military has forgotten its destination.I hope that is not the case.If it is, we are looking at a very expensive period in our national history.WNET has just finished rerunning Ken Burns' The Civil War.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_Comitatus_Act

Wholesale Robbery in Liquor Sales
“Wholesale Robbery in Liquor Sales - http://nyti.ms/etPVoU NYT”This is just more fear. A drunk will either be sober or dead. The trick is to keep that drunk from killing others on the way. There seems to be no middle ground in that duality.This is the remnant of prohibition. The heritage of the WCTU.

Libya Rebels Have Will, but Lack Martial Way
“Follow @cjchivers for reports from Libya. Here's his primer on the rebel who don't add up to an army - http://nyti.ms/hULdHO”It takes about two years to build an army. About six weeks to train a soldier. About ten years to make a general. A president takes about thirty years.

Phys Ed: The Truth About Sex and Exercise
Let’s be clear about this at the start. Vigorous sex will not inevitably cause your heart to stop, and neither will jogging. But you could be excused for believing that both activities are lethal if you relied on some of the coverage of an importa...I still have some time to work on my physical condition. You would be shocked at the difference a week of heavy exercise can make.
