This is the season of legacy for Bill Clinton, and that means photo opportunities. The president arrived in Portugal Tuesday to kick off a seemingly haphazard European farewell tour - Lisbon, Aachen, Berlin, Moscow, Kiev - and immediately began to hit the loud notes of seven years of seemingly haphazard foreign policy. Judging by the agenda, they must be: global trade, "third way" governance, humanitarian intervention in Africa, global trade again (how many presidents take their secretaries of State and Commerce on the same trip?) and one voodoo-defense leftover from the Reagan years, the missile defense system. And while Clinton talks...

Better that result, de Becker contends, than the more haphazard approach of a school district like Granite City, Ill., which has hand-crafted its own profiling policy. Students who exhibit certain risky behaviors--cursing, mood swings, writing about "the dark side of life"--can face expulsion or worse. In December, teachers in Granite City found a note by a student promising to "settle some scores." He was read his Miranda warning, arrested by the city police and suspended for 10 days. In the meantime, teachers investigating the matter found that the note was only the concoction, as superintendent Steve Balen...
