...location cry foul, reps from the NYSE say co-location is common and fair and that all exchanges charge for similar services. The exchange doesn't consider it special access because any firm that wants to can pay the fee and co-locate. Furthermore, firms that co-locate aren't at much of an advantage if they don't know how to program their computers with the algorithms that will ultimately keep them ahead of the crowd.

...that doesn't mean there aren't grim pockets elsewhere. By the end of March 2011, Deutsche Bank projects, 65% of borrowers in the Chicago metro area, 71% of those in the Baltimore and Portland, Ore., areas, and 77% in greater New York City will be underwater. On paper, that might look a lot better than the 93% Deutsche Bank is expecting for Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and the 92% figure for El Centro, Calif. But to the people living in those houses, unable to move, the relative good fortune will likely be little consolation...

And yet at that very dispirited moment, Federal...

Other students are really looking for someone to say [professors' views] aren't the only idea out there. I feel like sometimes schools are teaching young people what to think and not how to think.

After the unpopular presidency of George W. Bush and big losses in Congress, conservatism is in a tough place right now. Why are you confident the movement will become popular again? Look at the way the economy is going right now. People aren't finding jobs; I don't think Americans will stand for it much longer. American is a center-right country, in general, and people live their lives conservatively - you want to keep the money you earn, you want to provide for your family. I think everything going on right now with the Obama Administration and the policies...
