...While we're on the subject of iPods and iTunes, I wanted to draw your attention to a cool, unusual development. Coinstar, operators of those machines in grocery stores that turn your loose change into crisp bills for a percentage, is now giving iTunes credit for change. Best of all, they don?t take out a percentage. In other words, if you bring in roughly $20 in change and take iTunes credit instead of cash, you get a gift-certificate code to enter when you? re in the iTunes Music Store - and you walk away with a dollar...
...first, that the results will assist consumers in gauging the value of education from particular institutions, and second, that something should be done about the substantial portion of students who are leaving college without even a basic set of skills, such as the ability to read complex texts or draw inferences. On neither account is standardized testing the right answer. The value of the college experience, by its very nature, cannot be easily categorized or quantified.

I only wish I’d realized it sooner...
...Thailand's eastern seaboard into an R. and R. playground. Though the soldiers went home in the 1970s, Pattaya remained a preserve of anything-goes hedonism?and an object of either love or loathing, depending on whom you asked. Now the city, already Thailand's second biggest tourist draw with more than 5 million visitors annually, is poised for another reinvention, and once again it's the result of its proximity to a landing strip?in this case, the new Bangkok airport...
