President Obama will have a historic opportunity to reshape public policy.
Speaking at the Wall Street Journal's CEO conference in November, Mr. Obama's chief-of-staff-designate, Rahm Emanuel, said the words that have become his team's rallying cry for 2009: "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. , it's a good bet few politicians will want to stand in the way.
That will give the new president an opportunity to do things his predecessors could only dream about. Roads will be rebuilt, schools will be refurbished, medical records will be computerized, and windmills will be constructed, all across the land.
Will some of that money be wasted? Of course. But the sums involved This crisis provides the opportunity for us to do things that you could not do before."The Obama team is busily preparing a stimulus package that, when all is said and done, will total between $750 billion and $1 trillion -- far larger than any fiscal stimulus in the history of the world.

Lyra shook hands as politely as she could, and was then introduced to the other guests, who were, like Dame Hannah, Scholars from quite uninteresting. Then the Master came to the final guest.
"Mrs. Coulter," he said, "this is our Lyra. Lyra, come and say hello to Mrs. Coulter."

The announcement was made on the Facebook company blog by founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Should Facebook sustain this rate of growth, the 5-year-old site could hit 200 million users before Zuckerberg reaches his 25th birthday this spring.
Nearly half over revenues.
That can be precarious, especially during difficult financial times, when Facebook's deep-pocketed backers may find those pockets a bit shallower. As some critics have pointed out, server power and other infrastructure costs are not as cheap internationally as they are in the States.of those 150 million members, Zuckerberg wrote, use Facebook every day. Most of the site's new members now come from outside the United States. "This includes people in every continent--even Antarctica," the post read. "If Facebook were a country, it would be the eighth most populated in the world, just ahead of Japan, Russia, and Nigeria."But FacNation wouldn't be a financial heavyweight just yet.

Charles Darwin believed that tickling was the key to creating social bonds between people, such as mother and child or between romantic partners. He saw it as social play, a positive and safe way to stimulate each other. But is tickling the case, where does the laughter come from?
Theories about the origins of tickling-induced laughter abound. One psychiatrist, Donald W. Black, found that the places on our bodies most prone to feeling ticklish relate to our reflexes, implying a connection between the playful fighting back that occurs during tickle fests and acquiring necessary self-defense skills. According to him, laughing reinforces the act as a safe, non-harmful way of learning how actually pleasurable? Even though we laugh along when the right person performs the act, tickling is not often enjoyed. The discomfort makes us wiggle away from the person, yet our laughing encourages the tickler to continue. In one study that examined the physical response to tickling, 70 to 75 percent of participants laughed when stimulated, but most stated afterward that they generally did not enjoy being tickled. If that’s
