Dovetailing two threads ("Gray vs. Fenty, One on One" (tm) and facility repairs) into one post, DC Councilmember Vincent C. Gray is criticizing the quality of the facility updates made by DCPS this summer. In a letter to Mayor Adrian M. Fenty (D), Gray said council staff visits to 15 schools over the past two weeks show "major improvements" in areas such as roofing, science labs and auditoriums. But...

Membership doesn't seem very demanding: A minimum of a Bachelor's degree in counselling or related field. Complete and...

I am sorely tempted to post here about some books I'm enjoying such as Holly Black's new gn The Good Neighbors and the James Blaylock collection, The Adventures of Langdon St. Ives which is Sherlock Holmesian in all the right ways but way way way cooler. (And I write that as a big Holmes fan but please - Ives hangs out at the Explorers Club, has a rocket ship and takes trips into the Amazon jungle!)...

Filed under: Industry , ER , House , Scrubs , Grey's Anatomy , Reality-Free I used to be a huge ER fan. Back in the good ol' Dr. Doug Ross days, I wouldn't miss an episode. It was the first medical drama that I had ever really watched, and I paid attention to it like I was watching an educational video in med school. This came in handy several years back when I was on a flight to Scotland. It was...

What an interesting declaration by Iain Gray at the Edinburgh hustings for the Labour leadership last night. From supporting the Council tax; to wanting to reform it; to supporting a property tax of some type; and finally, back to reforming it; Iain has travelled a long and weary road.
