      Digital Textbooks Slow to Catch On
      “I get it. Hard for me to study or research from digital books. Digital Textbooks Slow to Catch On - http://nyti.ms/muWl4p” 
      It is really hard to make money from a digital text.  
      If the students learn to use them they may learn all kinds of things that their school boards do not approve of.
      They will learn to research and to read critically.

    For African-Americans, ‘Going Natural’ Can Require Help
    Tired of chemically treated hair, and of visits to salons, many African-American women are turning to YouTube to pick up tips and advice on products.
    Good luck to them.  There is lots of advice.  Most of it is send money.
    This seems to be the best of it: NaturalChica.com,

    Banks Defeated in Senate Vote Over Debit Card Fees
    The Senate rejected a delay on regulations over debit card fees, essentially leaving it to the Federal Reserve to limit the fees that stores pay banks.
    A decent result from a very bad process.  Money speaks very loudly.

    Brain Calisthenics Help Break Down Abstract Ideas, Researchers Say
    Traditional classroom learning is generally rules first, application later. However, researchers are finding that repeated exposure to patterns seems to deepen understanding.
    There is no "royal road" to knowledge with understanding.  We build it with constant effort.

    "Long ago, when Alexander the Great asked the mathematician Menaechmus for a crash course in geometry, he got the famous reply "There is no royal road to mathematics.""

      Cloning Redwoods
      “Serving arborealness!!! Cloning Redwoods - http://nyti.ms/gH2nhz” 
      It is easy to clone the trees.  It is conditions rather than genetics that grow the giants.  The ones we have are fossils and should be treated as the treasures they are.  There has been a sustainable cut
      for the last hundred years.  The ownership of those stands changed twenty years ago in favour of cash now.  Logging has become a political battle.  Park closure is just part of it.
