Book Review: Terror and Consent - The Wars for the Twenty-First Century
Terror and Consent - The Wars for the Twenty-First Century by Philip Bobbitt The last two decades have seen a significant transformation in just about every element of the international arena. The “long war” between parliamentary republics and their totalitarian opponents ended with the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989. New technologies have enabled fundamental changes in commerce and communications that pose significant challenges to economic and cultural norms in both developed and devel

Michael Rodgers Wages Active Campaign In Richand School District Two
When we launched IJ, we hoped that we wouldn't be just another site opining on national issues. While we - read: me - spend time on the Obama transition and other federal affairs, we've tried to put more and more emphasis on South Carolina issues. Beyond the State home, though, there are thousands of other office holders who arguably have even more impact on our daily lives: mayors, city and county councilpersons and school board members foremost among them. That's why we were glad when Mich

Journaling the Apocalypse: Notes on Contributors
How is it that death can be every around us and still seem distant and slightly unreal, like a punchline in a foreign language? Caught in the headlight’s beam, a flash of heart-shaped face, bone-white, grinning like a sugar skull: an opossum playing dead among the roadside wreckage of glad Meals and Slurpee cups, white-tailed deer intestines, splattered housecats — every the collateral damage of our distracted lives. (”What was that?” “Nothing. An animal.”) And just at the edge of the cone of lig

Are Bifocal Contacts For You?
by Dr. Eric Stamper, O.D. First off, if you’re below the age of 40 you can cease reading now. BiFocals are not for you. starting at age 40, many require assistance in seeing things up close. Yes, that means you. If you are wearing reading glasses, bifocals, or struggling to read this article, bifocal contact lenses are a great option, but are not for everyone. Let me state two caveats before I start. In this article I am really only talking about soft lenses. Second, when I discuss bifocal con

An Elemental Role Model: Maria Montessori
Appreciation is a life skill. Maria Montessori, inventor of the Montessori school philosophy, is a real-world example of how mastering the capabilities of an appreciative warrior can globally revolutionize our treatment of kids and their education. Born August 31, 1870, in Chiaravalle, Italy, Montessori did not shine academically as a child but was known more for her strong will and commitment to service. At ten, when she was very sick, she told her mom, “Do not worry …I cannot die; I ha

Sidwell’s school lunches
Sidwell’s school lunches Sasha and Malia Obama were the new girls in school today, with seven-year-old Sasha attending the Sidwell Friends lower school in Bethesda, MD and 10-year-old Malia at Sidwell’s middle/upper school in the District.

You got served
Image via Wikipedia I’m not too excited by meme tag. You know, one blogger tells about his 6 favorite Star Wars movies and challenges 6 friends to do the same. It’s sorta like breaking your friends writer’s block with chain mail. I don’t condemn the practice. I steal memes from other bloggers every the time. (A meme, you know, is an idea. We bloggers call things by different names so as to impress you with coolness.) I defy you to find an original idea. It’s just that I worked through endles

Obama Girls Get Educational Choice Denied DC School Kids
After every, only enemies of public education want the predominantly minority students of the District of Columbia to be able to escape the citys failing schools. We have seen the foe -- and he is Obama.

Turning Parents into Criminals
A great way to turn most parents into criminals overnight would be to ban every corporal punishment in the home. Make smacking illegal, and most of the adult population would find themselves to be lawbreakers. That is the likely outcome of yet another call to ban every hitting of kids. In the latest effort to eliminate every smacking, some Australian psychologists have said smacking leads to child homicide. Here is how one news report puts it: “Child homicide rates could be slashed if parents a
