I'm taking the day off from writing/blogging and am only reading stuff. Here are some goodies that I've found.

David Brooks is really chuffed that Obama and Duncan are putting pressure on the states to increase the number of charter schools and to find a way to identify and support good teachers. 

More people are weighing in on the women/unhappiness research, including Barbara Ehrenreich and Judith Warner.

This post made me very sad.
