      BIN LADEN DEAD, U.S. OFFICIAL SAYS
      Oh my gosh. After ten years, what do you say? It seems everything has already been said. Perhaps this will be a coda to a long, sad chapter of American history. I don't know whether I am glad that another person, even if it is bin Laden, has died for such crazy, terror-causing beliefs, but I do know that I wish it would all just end. Attacks, hatred, death - hasn't the world had enough of it? In some way I suppose justice has been served, but ultimately I would rather - we would all rather, I think - that 9/11 had never even happened.
      We did not have that choice at this time.

    Peer Pressure and Spanking Among Black Parents - Room for Debate
    Black parents may be supported by family and friends because they believe spanking instills respect for their children's interactions with authority figures.
    Why is this question being asked now?

    Will Bush's Legacy Hurt Rick Perry? - Room for Debate
    For better or worse, Perry echoes Bush in many ways. Could that cost him swing voters?
    I was not aware that the shrub left a legacy other than his debts.

    Perry Will Face a Backlash Against Bush - Room for Debate
    Perry will face some Texas fatigue; scores of Republican candidates were defeated because of antipathy toward the Bush administration.
    He does not refer to 2010.  Gaming the system?

    Plant Protest Shows China’s Officials Under Pressure
    After a large protest in a major city on Sunday, China’s craving for rigid order appears increasingly ephemeral.
    The local officials are worried about their incomes.  It will be years before the firing squads get busy.

    Yes.  Warren Buffet gets the core of the problem.

      Sweet story.  A great relief.  Getting over the Donner Pass in December . . .   I may take the southern rout in January.  We will see how it shakes out.  Sour dough is an interesting project.  Reports will follow.

    Debt in Europe Fuels a Bond Debate

      The War on Warren
      http://news.bostonherald.com/news/politics/view/2011_0817warren_brushes_up_on_politics_for_bid/

      Harvard academic-turned-Democratic Party darling Elizabeth Warren has been thrust into political boot camp, as she eyes a clash with U.S. Sen. Scott Brown that will require her to quickly morph from behind-the-scenes policy wonk to prolific giant killer.

      A first-time candidate, Warren is immersed in a crash course in Politicking 101 under the tutelage of Gov. Deval Patrick’s chief strategist Doug Rubin, sources tell the Herald. She’s spent the past few days meeting with activists in Cambridge, Dorchester and Lexington.

      Come Again, Republicans?
      Republicans, who claim to be worried about the deficit, are suddenly determined to overturn one of health care reform’s central cost-control mechanisms.

      It is being fought tooth and nail.  Reform is not dead yet.
