Hey, what’s good for citizens should be good for city hall too.
It was just reported that the first Ebola victim discovered in the US is being treated in Dallas Texas. It is imperative that information flow freely around this situation. Keep the response open sourced. Let people track developments closely. I...
The great disconnect continues. Those who are tapped into the (crony) financialized system have seen their stocks and bonds do well as the market has ridden a Federal Reserve created bubble. Those who do not have assets, or only real...

And we’re not talking about Al Gore. (Forgive me the joke wake just teed up.) Tim Berners-Lee has called for an Internet “Magna Carta” for cyberspace.
The idea that schools are supposed to serve students first and teachers second doesn’t seem like a radical idea. Let’s be frank, for pretty much everyone this is just assumed. But it is NOT assumed by the teacher’s unions, especially...
