"Them and Them." "Rockland County, New York's East Ramapo school district is a taxpayer-funded system fighting financial insolvency. It is also bitterly divided between the mostly black and Hispanic children and families who use the schools and the Hasidic and ultra-Orthodox Jewish majority who run the Board of Education and send their children to private, religious schools."

Oh those vaunted "
first 100 days," they are finally upon us. Roosevelt's legendary time period has long been applied to new administrations, but never so emphatically or with such hope as to the Obama administration. And now you can follow them! For commentary, there's
The First 100 Days, for mainstream media there's
Obama's First 100 Days, for a comparison between old and new there
100 Days: Starting the Job, From FDR to Obama, for new media there's
Obama's First 100 Days, and finally, for a government perspective there's
First 100 Days.
I smell an idea for an ironic t-shirt...
