Do States Need Schools for the Deaf? - Room for Debate
A clash over whether children should be encouraged to sign, at a separate school for the deaf, or should attend 'mainstream' schools.Educating a deaf child is expensive.Take advantage of the economies of scale and educate them in a separate school.The education is not a choice.Sharing the cost of instruction over several hundred students only makes sense. -

Why we can all stop paying attention to Sarah Palin for a little while.
I'd rather not see Palin anywhere near the campaign trail, but these days Republicans are all about entertainment rather than governing. How else to explain that no GOP politician is bringing serious ideas to the debates on reforming health care or the financial system. Meanwhile, Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck and all draw millions of eyes and ears. GOP political rhetoric echoes their shock-jock behavior, with an increase in name-calling, audience pandering and efforts to inflame the base. Sarah Palin is good at all those activities. She draws the attention of a lot of people, and not just in the media.I have heard little or nothing of Sarah Palin since Rupert Murdoch got himself into trouble.

The killings could weaken nationalist fervor in Europe, as the Oklahoma City bombing cooled off militias in the U.S. in the late 1990s.No. -
Presidents and Their Debts, F.D.R. to Bush - Room for Debate
Some historians give us a crash course in how we got to the current standoff over the nation's possible default.This monster has passed the House. I expect it will pass the Senate.George W. Bush decided that he would have a tax cut. -

Overtesting Drives Away the Best Teachers - Room for Debate
Who’s getting paid to design these assessments and the materials districts, educators and parents will scramble to purchase to help children prepare for them?The cost of the program in cash is trivial. The costs in time attention and control are not bugs but features.

Herbivores’ Nibbles Affect Climate Tales That Tree Rings Tell
