...Obama and Geithner may not be completely out of the woods even if they do force banks to sell their toxic assets. Some banks may be so deeply in debt that even the proceeds from the sales won't be enough to fill their capital needs. In that case, the stress tests may prove useful in another way. Geithner has only about $35 billion of TARP money left to plug the remaining holes for the 19 largest banks. After that, he has to go back to Congress for more money - at which point he'll need the stress tests...

Cough- and cold-remedy sales are down 9% because you can make your own chicken soup; vitamin sales are up, maybe...
...excessive dependence on work is revealed by the worried speculation over how to fill time now that J-term courses are cancelled. Relying on university administration to provide fulfilling experiences suggests a feeble lack of self-sufficiency. Similarly, demands for holiday courses, even if optional and not for credit, hints at an aversion to independent thought. Even if one specifically selects a topic of personal interest, J-term courses would still feed students potential topics to consider and contentions to analyse. Why can’t students use holiday relaxation to come up with their own questions...
