Updates R Us


1. Yale art student needs Dictionary Use 101.

2. Hard to call this an update but it’s reinforcement of the fact that abstinence-only programs do not work to “…cut teen pregnancies or sexually transmitted diseases or [delay] the age at which sex begins…” Of course, having schools hand out condoms with prom bags…? Why do the schools hand out prom bags in the first place? I never got a prom bag. Sigh.

3. A reminder that Ohio is regressing in electing women to political office.

4. Navy Admiral William Fallon to be replaced by General David Petraeus.

5. For all the Ohio State Senate seat 24 readers.

6. Rush is slippery but I couldn’t let this slide.

7. Seattle Jewish Community Federation shooter is pleading guilty by reason of insanity.

8. Still confounded by spouses in presidential races? Check out this symposium coming up.

9. And then there’s discussion of a mother-daughter fight in feminism.

10. You’ll have to follow Eric’s blog now – which is not a bad thing, but the WKYC disappearance from Akron sounds like a terrible decision for many residents.

11. A WCPN broadcast that I missed: how to do charter schools in Ohio the right way, E-Prep. (De Magno Opere asks, as I giggle, Haven’t we gotten rid of charter schools YET?! – my emphasis)

12. Just a repeat on how absolutely SUCKY ABC’s coverage was for the Pennsylvania debate, courtesy of Tom Shales.

13. I’m still waiting to hear again from the author, Michael Salzhauer, but here’s a dad’s take on My Beautiful Mommy.

14. Two men on the equal pay for women legislation. Okay – two fairly nice guys.
