"Waiting for Superman"

I fear that this documentary may advocate for the expansion of charter schools. Bill Gates and Michelle Rhee were both in the trailer. The studies available show that only twenty percent of charters actually perform better than the local public school. Most charters perform at the same level as local schools which is telling since they have smaller classes and more motivated students. It is not an apple to apple comparison. What happens to a student that brings drugs to school at a charter. They are expelled and never return. And at public school? That student will return to campus in about two months. Equal comparison? NO!

Amazon Reviews, Badass

I was wondering why people do not comment on positive reviews on Amazon but really go after negative reviews. My negative review of Hamilton's Curse has gotten some attention while most of my other reviews go largely unremarked. Anyhow, Badass by Ben Thompson is a welcome break from serious biographical studies. The style of writing is very colloquial. The author has a penchant for shredded faces and kicking balls all over the place. I really enjoyed the book and the website, badass of the week.
