The Daily Dozen

  1. Financial regulation: "Regulation is a chess mid-game, not a math problem. With a math problem, once you solve the problem, it stays solved. In a chess mid-game, new opportunities and threats arise constantly. You try to plan ahead, but your plans inevitably degrade over time."
  2. Economics as it could be (and should be) taught.
  3. David Pogue reviews the Flip video camera.
  4. Learning how to think. The experts don't seem to be much smarter than a chimpanzee?
  5. See the best of Ireland - on an electric bike.
  6. 13 people you can thank for the economic crisis. It might not be who you think.
  7. What would a book on George Mason University economics look like?
  8. What role does legal academia play in the development of the law?
  9. When should you drop out of grad school? Where's the law school list?
  10. A rosy scenario for the economy?
  11. Why aren't browsers automatically optimized for netbook screens? A great question. Why not other software too?
  12. Voices of spinal cord injury. "Life after a spinal cord injury is filled with the challenge of accepting your injury, coping with your limitations and adjusting to an entirely new way of seeing the world. Here, six men and women talk about their lives after a spinal cord injury."
