I think history has proven that there will always be a underling ready to take his chance at the top. We need to look no further than at something like the drug war in Mexico or even to the US to a smaller extent. A young, brutal cartel mem

Very true, but more shocking is that more than 1 in a 100 Americans are behind bars. It actually costs more to send a person to prison for one year than tuition at Princeton! http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/28/us/28cnd-prison.html http://

I am a fanatical libertarian and Rand is not a major figure in most modern circles. Austrian writers are the go to role models for most libertarians, Hayek, Mises, my favorite is Rothbard.

I agree, every CEO had to learn the proper skills at some point their career. Jack Welch from GE comes to mind, he is consistently ranked as one of the best CEO's in modern business but he started off as a chemist. Sure MBA's have a little

The same guy who teaches this course also runs the site codingbat.com. It has a bunch of puzzles in python and java to test your chops on.

You should look into the Fedora Sugar on a Stick distro. http://spins.fedoraproject.org/soas/ It has tons of great interactive python programming tools and projects, plus all the hours are logged and you can review how much time the kids

I am in the exact opposite position, I have an almost non-existent arch and if I forget to wear arched soles my feet and knees will be aching by late afternoon. I would buy this shoe in an instant.

The line about Krugman made me laugh. Just a year ago when I was a finance and econ student there was a big controversy because Krugman would publish an article on the NYT and within minutes there would be several comments refuting all his

What about all the social unrest currently going on in Chile? I don't know a lot about the situation other than passing mentions in the news but the protests were a big enough deal to warrant a wiki page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_
