UNEMPLOYMENT: Highest in 15-19 Age Range
Broken Dreams - The jobs's they won't get
Teen and young adult unemployment is at an all-time high. This is unsurprising when the entire workforce has faced major disruption. Nearing the end of a severe recession, the lack of jobs comes not only from the few positions available. Compounding the problem is a profound lack of prerequisite preparation for performing even the most minimally demanding workt

UNEMPLOYMENT: OpEd - Kruger
Kruger talks about the unemployed, saying that Washington has forgotten qpp qbout them;
He tells us : "It might not be so bad if the jobless could expect to find new employment fairly soon. But unemployment has become a trap, one that’s very difficult to escape, " and then this: I still don’t know why the Obama administration was so quick to accept defeat in the war of ideas, but the fact is that it surrendered very early in the game. In early 2009, John Boehner, now the speaker of the House, was widely and rightly mocked for declaring that since families were suffering, the government should tighten its own belt. That’s Herbert Hoover economics, and it’s as wrong now as it was in the 1930s. But, in the 2010 State of the Union address, President Obama adopted exactly the same metaphor and began using it incessantly."

EDUCATION Creationists trying again
The Scopes strategy: creationists try new tactics to promote anti-evolutionary teaching in public schools. Under the guise of "academic freedom" creationists are co-opting some old heroes of the fight to teach evolution in the classroom for their anti-science campaign

ECONOMY Market Crah Predicted around Christmas 2011
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. (MarketWatch) — Politicians lie. Bankers lie. Yes, they’re liars. But they’re not bad, it’s in their genes, inherited. Their brains are wired that way, warn scientists. Like addicts, they can’t help themselves. They want to sell stuff, get rich.

IGNORANCE A Dialog With Conspiracy Nuts
Alice, Meet the Stupids Family
Shortly after the anniversary of he 9/11 attack, a writer had submitted an article calling for the nation to come together in the same spirit as had motivated us immediately following the actual attack, in 2001.
Apparently totally unable to focus on that content, a number of individuals reverted once again to try to prove that attack was a U,S. Government conspiracy. This is the dialog between myself and a number of the advocates of this theory, taken directly from the comments appearing at that time. The term “Author,” is, at all times, referring to my comments or responses.

CRIME - Shooting: Rep Gifford Critical 6 Dead, 12 Wounded
Gabrielle Giffords shooting in Tucson: Did it stem from state of political discourse?
Pardon me for a totally different take on this whole situation, Tragic? Of course. But trying to pin the cause on Tea Party, Palin, Beck, et al, is absurd. There will always be crazies. People talking to voices, or seeing Hitler marching down the street.
All of us rightfully worry about the surveillance under which we live, justified by the flimsiest of government justifications. Founders, in their constructing the Constitution, did not in their wildest dreams, have any idea of how the Fourth Amendment could possibly fail to protect the privacy of citizens. Stifling the hate purveyors who dominate much of the media is no guarantee of protection against the crazies. As a nation, we must somehow find the balance between the technological protections available to us, versus are right to be free from the prying eyes of government.
This will always be a constantly shifting and ever changing fine edge balanced between remaining unseen and unknown, against the protection which professionally managed technology can provide. if for example, YouTube had a built-in capability to identify word or audio combinations suggested in that the submittal was by someone who was potentially dangerous, we might have been warned in advance that this assailant was someone who should be carefully monitored. Yet, all of us are concerned, and rightfully so, that the NSA has the technological capability, and engages in precisely the same activity, deployed against American citizens.
Does any of this answer the question of privacy? No. That said, it is that question which should be asked.
