...York Times skewered the proposal as the centerpiece of a Republican "economic agenda that hasn't changed one iota in response to the economic failures of the Bush years." The Washington Post's Ezra Klein, who praised aspects of the proposal for its candor, called it a "radical document that takes current policy and rolls a live grenade underneath...
Wehner calls Ryan's "Roadmap for America's Future" an "intellectually honest document. It has real numbers and it puts forward real proposals. It grapples with the reality of the situation we are in, which is a fiscal nightmare." Being intellectually honest, of course, is often politically dangerous. With Republicans "still skittish," Wehner says, about jeopardizing their political momentum at a time when mere opposition to the President seems to be enough to propel them to gains in this year's midterm elections, Ryan may be forcing a conversation his party is unwilling to have. That's a risk that...
...Mount Vernon Statement," as they have dubbed the document, seeks to tether conservatism to constitutional principles at a time when Republicans and many independents have become outraged over what they view as governmental overreach.

They cite the compact as a contemporary version of the Sharon Statement, a document named for William F. Buckley Jr.'s Connecticut hometown that helped shape the contours...
...long last, the affordable handycam is helping to document unseen corners of Asia - and define a new generation of filmmakers. First there's Beijing's Zhao Liang, who used a decade of handheld shooting to create Petition, which chronicles the Kafkaesque torment of Chinese citizens seeking official redress for endlessly unanswered grievances. Then there's Burma VJ, the Danish director Anders ?stergaard's dazzling pastiche - marred at times by dull dramatic reconstructions - of material shot at great risk by underground videographers from Burma's democracy movement...
...American Psychiatric Association (APA), which publishes the DSM, has long wanted the fifth version to be a more rational, understandable document, but that's not proving to be easy. Publication has been delayed at least twice, and the association now doesn't expect to produce DSM-5 until 2013, 14 years after research on it began. One reason is that there are so many stakeholders: patients, shrinks, HMOs, academics. Patients want their illnesses covered; shrinks need to get paid academics want definitions to be consistent with research - research that is itself uneven. Sometimes, DSM changes can be made...
