Keynesian economics is like a Freddy Krueger move, inevitably rising from the dead when politicians want to rationalize wasting money on favored interest groups.
Featured Book
Bruce Yandle and Adam Smith
In Bootleggers & Baptists: How Economic Forces and Moral Persuasion Interact to Shape Regulatory Politics, economists Bruce Yandle and Adam Smith explain how money and morality are often combined in politics to produce arbitrary regulations benefiting cronies, while constraining productive economic activities by the general public.
The Impact of the Cato Institute
For over 30 years, the Cato Institute has worked to change the climate of ideas. The cumulative effect of this effort is real impact today. Here's how Cato puts Sponsors' contributions to work.
Reason's Nick Gillespie has a great new video in which anguished parents and students ask president Barack Obama why he's letting the DC school voucher program die.
Through his press secretary Robert Gibbs, president Obama has declared that he will reverse congressional Democrats' phase-out of the DC Opportunity Scholarships program. The scholarships make private schooling affordable for 1,700 poor DC children, most of whom would be forced back into the District's broken public school system if it were to end.
However – yes, there's always a however – there's every indication that president Obama will do the minimum necessary to keep the program going at its current size, and will not help to expand it.
This is nevertheless a crucial milestone. There is finally a major national Democratic leader who is beginning to catch up to his state-level peers. Democrats all around the country have been supporting and signing small education tax credit programs because they realize that these programs are win-win: good for their constituents and good for their long-term political futures.
The old guard of the Democratic party – typified by congressional leaders – still imagines that school choice is bad for them. They still think that they can roll back time to a period when the public school monopoly was inviolate. That time has passed. Real educational freedom is spreading – slowly – around the country. That is not going to stop.
The last Democrats to be found jamming their fingers into the dike, hoping to stop the flight to educational freedom, will find their political careers swept away when that dike finally crumbles.

NASA has selected three companies to provide engineering solutions and products to Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. The companies are Radiance Technologies Inc. and Teledyne Brown Engineering Inc., Huntsville, Ala., and Wyle Laboratories Inc., Houston, Texas. The performance-based, cost-reimbursement fixed-fee, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contracts have a potential value of $350 million. The contracts have a five-year performance period with a minimum order quantity value of $1 million. The three companies will compete to provide engineering solutions and products for design, development, test, evaluation, operations and training in support of MSFC flight projects, human and robotic exploration, science and technology development, future programs/projects, and other MSFC organizations that have similar needs.
To facilitate multinational operations, the European Defence Agency (EDA) has set a future communications project in motion to study the terrestrial and satellite communication network systems in European Union (EU) countries. In this initial step of what will be a four-phase project, the primary EU member states' existing and future assets will be inventoried. During the first phase of the project, operational scenarios and capability requirements will be identified. The second and third phases will involve identifying the required technical specifications to support these scenarios and the potential capability gaps. During the final phase, radio frequency spectrum will be analyzed to determine which bands are available. The EDA will then make recommendations based on this information and specify the technical and operational resources needed to create a cohesive capability. The work aims at resolving incompatibility issues that the piecemeal development of communications capabilities has caused, hindering multinational cooperation and increasing reliance on other nations for interoperable assets or resources.
The latest generation Tracking and Data Relay Satellite, TDRS-K, updates existing technology with an eye to the future. New electronics and better power management will help extend the TDRS constellation for at least another decade, but NASA already is looking ahead to major changes in the system's capabilities that would define the next-generation TDRS.
Earthbound technologies and computer programming that make most popular video games possible are driving development of the remote-controlled robots now in use by NASA in the unmanned exploration of Mars and the solar system. Those improvements in both hardware and software also spur innovation in the next generation of robots envisioned for use by government and industry. That is important because NASA recently has proposed a new, multiyear program of sending robot explorers to Mars, culminating in the launch of another large scientific rover in the year 2020.
"The technologies and the software that the video game industry has developed for rendering data, scenes, terrain—many of the same visualization techniques and technologies are infiltrating into the kinds of software that we use for controlling spacecraft," according to Jeff Norris, manager of the Planning and Execution Systems Section with NASA'S Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, California. In a similar way, joysticks and gaming consoles such as the Microsoft XBox Kinect are examples of gaming technology hardware that have functional analogues in the systems used to control robotic spacecraft.
Pacific Defense Solutions LLC, Kihei, Hawaii is being awarded a $9,724,737 cost plus fixed fee contract for space situational awareness research and development. The contracting activity is Air Force Research Laboratory, Kirtland Air Force Base, N.M.
Students age 14 to 18 can compete to have astronauts in space carry out their experiments if they win the Space Lab challenge. Budding scientists must upload a video outlining their idea, but they don't have to carry out the experiments themselves.
A new strategy for certifying commercial launch vehicles aims to expand the number of companies qualified for space launch missions. The entrant launch vehicle certification strategy is a cooperative effort between the U.S. Air Force, the National Reconnaissance Office and NASA.
No matter how vast it seems, even space gets a little crowded. Hundreds of active satellites and thousands of pieces of space junk clutter the area surrounding Earth-from lost astronaut tools to pieces of rockets. To help track and identify the debris, the U.S. Air Force is replacing its aging and outdated Air Force Space Surveillance System, which has been in service for 50 years.
The Pennsylvania State University Applied Research Laboratory, State College, has been awarded a $150 million contract modification to increase the contract ceiling, providing up to 1,560,000 additional staff hours to provide research, development, engineering, test and evaluation. The core areas include guidance, navigation and control of undersea systems, advanced thermal propulsion, materials and manufacturing technology, atmosphere and defense communications and other related technologies. Research and development areas include, but are not limited to, missiles, radar, sonar, space, undersea warfare, anti-air warfare, command, control and communications, and other related technologies. The Naval Sea Systems Command, Washington, D.C., is the contracting activity.
The end of the space shuttle program is the signal for NASA to turn to the private sector for human access to orbit. The space agency that built a series of manned spacecraft to blaze a trail to the moon now is placing its bets on several commercial space technology companies to provide entry for humans into low earth orbit.
This new direction for the government space agency has several goals. First, it seeks to establish a domestic manned orbital capability to reach the International Space Station. After the shuttle program ends this year, the only way for spacefarers to reach the space station for the next few years will be through Russian space agency launches.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have never won a Super Bowl. It tears us up inside (especially with the revelations that came out last week about Titans defensive coordinator Gregg Williams "stealing" our playbook prior to the 1999 AFC Championship) but what you may not have known is that until Sunday night, neither had the Seattle Seahawks.
That's right. The Seattle Seahawks, who entered the league in 1976 and had even lost the Super Bowl themselves, had never won the big game.
That leaves 13 teams to have never won. There's nine teams who have gone and come away losers. The Arizona Cardinals, Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, San Diego Chargers, and Tennessee Titans have each lost a single Super Bowl, while the Cincinnati Bengals and Philadelphia Eagles are 0-for-2. The Minnesota Vikings and the Buffalo Bills, who have both been to four Super Bowls, have come away with zero championships.
And then there's four franchises -- the Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions, Houston Texans, and Jacksonville Jaguars -- who have never been to the Super Bowl. Cleveland has lost three AFC Championship appearances, Jacksonville two, Detroit one, and Houston has never made it past the AFC Divisional round.
Add everything up, and you're left with a very unlucky 13 franchises that have never won the Super Bowl.

Are you familiar with logistic regression or basic linear regression? Where are your particular questions?
I have been working on analyzing a survey data using SPSS. I am supposed to use ordinal regression analysis. I have watched a couple of videos in order to learn how to run the test; yet I am unable to report my results. Would anyone kindly guide me on this, please.
Are you familiar with logistic regression or basic linear regression? Where are your particular questions?
Disregard the number of posts I have on this forum => I likely have no idea what I am writing about!
Thanks, hlsmith.
No, I am not familiar with these types of analysis. In particular, I am looking whether demographic characteristics as well as disease features can predict questionnaire responses (a five-points likert scale of strongly disagree to strongly agree). Originally, I used Chi-square tests to examine associations of these with participants' responses; yet was considered wrong by the examiners (I am a PhD student).
P.S. Apologies for my bad language as English is not my first language.

SPRINGFIELD - The Clark County Board of Elections has named a new director. 30-year-old Matthew Tlachac will be replacing Mark Oster, who is retiring in August.
In a 3-1 vote, the Clark County Board of elections selected Tlachac from a field of 10 finalists for the director's position. Mark Oster, the current director, announced his retirement three weeks ago. Since he is a Democrat, the board was forced to find another Democrat to replace him.
Oster says that politics did not play a role in his decision to retire. But he felt the timing was right to step down.

Every loyalty program has some sort of system where you can miles. Usually, they are a terrible option.
Take US Airways for example, for reasons that will become clear shortly. Their web site even has a promotion for "double miles" when you purchase them. Let's see how this stacks up. Here is the offer:
2.5 cents per mile
$30 processing fee
50,000 miles maximum per transaction
So 50,000 miles multiplied by 2.5 cents a mile is $1250. Add in the "processing fee" and you get $1280. For that, they will give you a 50,000 miles plus another 50,000 mile bonus for a total of 100,000 Dividend miles. That works out to 1.28 cents per mile. That may or may not be worth it, depending on how you read their new, revised (devalued) reward chart, or their Star Alliance reward chart. Don't forget to include all of their fees in your value calculation.
Now, whatever you do, don't their miles until you read this:
Their New Promotion
Several bloggers including Gary Leff over at View From The Wing, and Richard Ingersoll over at the Frugal Travel Guy have done the math and found out that this new promotion at US Airways allows you to accumulate miles at .7 cents per mile, almost half of what US Airways is selling them for. Essentially, they are giving a 250% bonus for miles earned through their shopping portal. One of their merchants in particular, TrackItBack, gives a whopping 40 miles per dollar spent on their product, some kind of identification sticker that you put on your stuff in case it gets lost. 40 miles plus the 250% bonus equals 140 miles per dollar, or .7 cents ($0.007) per mile. I will let you read their work on the subject to get all of the details, and the details are important.
Gary deduces that you can get a business class ticket to Europe for $570 on a Star Alliance partner. You could also get a business class ticket to central or southern Asia on most any of the Star Alliance partners for $840. At that rate, you might as well go first class for a mere $1120.
Of course there are a couple risks, albeit minor. First, US Airways could devalue their Star Alliance rewards by requiring more miles and limiting access to available rewards. The real fear is that they might do that some time between now and March 1st, when they are supposed to credit the bonus miles. I doubt they could devalue them so much that it would cost more to book that had you paid cash. As with any airline reward, you must assume there are capacity restrictions on everything. This strategy is for people who can plan travel far in advance and have some flexibility in their travel arrangements. It also helps if you can get to your destination on US Airways, as their award chart for next year has already been disclosed.
My Addition
There is another way to lower your cost on this promotionthat I don't think I have seen other bloggers have mentioned yet. When you get your hundreds of TrackItBack stickers, put them on eBay. They may not have a lot of value, but you should get something in cash back from your miles. Of course, you should get a little cash back from your credit card as well.
An Example
My friend Shawn and his mother wants to fly to Paris for the Tour de France next year. Currently, round trip tickets in coach are running about $1700 each from Denver to Paris in the middle of July. Let's say that they follow all of the instructions for the promotion very carefully, and finish with an order of $1800 in TrackItBack stickers, but only after making five or six very small purchases from other partners as required by the rules
By March, they have now earned 250,000 dividend miles. They have consulted the revised US Airways award chart that will be in effect after January 6th and realized that the "High" award tickets to Europe are now a maximum of 125,000 miles in coach on US Airways. This award should be available, so long as they do not have to travel on the blackout dates July 18 and July 25. If they are lucky, I suppose that there is some possibility that they might have a "medium" award available for 90,000 miles, leaving them with 35,000 extra miles each for future travel. If they are both smart and lucky, they will consult the Star Alliance partner award chart, and find out that the current price of award travel on a partner such as Lufthansa in First Class is also 125,000 miles. Even business class is only 80,000 miles and that is a fantastic experience. Sure, they don't even offer First Class on their daily flight out of Denver, but I would make an extra change of planes just to experience it, if it were available.
So with taxes and fees, they might end up paying only $2000 for both of their seats to Europe, instead of $3400. There is that oh so tempting chance that they might do the trip in business class or even first, but it is hard to say considering they will only be able to book their July trip in March. Only in the world of award travel is planning nearly five months ahead considered to be last minute travel. Who knows, perhaps part of the $1400 saved will be used to purchase a nice replica Yellow Jersey for yours truly.
Go Lance!

Nowitzki's meds: Chicken soup, night-time jumpers
|Dallas Mavericks' Dirk Nowitzki, left, answers questions for the media after a basketball practice for Game 5 of the NBA finals against the Miami Heat, Wednesday, June 8, 2011, in Dallas. The series is tied 2-2. (AP Photo/Mark Humphrey)
DALLAS — Dirk Nowitzki went home from his latest dramatic performance in the NBA finals, took a shower then slurped some chicken soup and hot tea. After a good night's rest, he returned to work Wednesday still dealing with a slight temperature and the sniffles, so he took it easy.
For a few hours.
Nowitzki said he was planning to be back in the gym later Wednesday to put up some shots and "at least get the body used to sweating a little bit."
With only two or three games left this postseason, Nowitzki figures he will soon have plenty of time to deal with a sinus infection and everything else that ails him.
So he's determined to put whatever energy he has left into getting the two wins he and the Dallas Mavericks need to become NBA champions for the first time.
"At this stage, after playing eight, nine months on a high level ... nobody is completely healthy," Nowitzki said. "So it's time to fight through some stuff."
Nowitzki is fighting as hard as anyone.
He tore the tendon at the tip of his left middle finger during Game 1, then led a winning rally at the end of Game 2, even scoring two of his final three baskets using his wounded hand. He scored Dallas' final 12 points in Game 3, but missed his final shot at the buzzer when he could've forced overtime.
The morning of Game 4, he showed up for a shootaround "looking like a ghost," said Donnie Nelson, the team's president of basketball operations. Club officials sent him to the locker room, then to his house with all sorts of medicine.
Before the game, no one knew what to expect. Of course Nowitzki was going to try playing. But how long would he last? How good would he be?
"Dirk is a playful guy and outgoing and outspoken when it comes to the locker room," center Tyson Chandler said. "Seeing him not being playful and not really saying much and kind of sitting in his locker, I knew it was going to be a tough night for him."
All seemed well when Nowitzki opened the game by hitting three straight shots. Then he missed 10 of 11. He also misfired on a free throw, ending his second run of 39 in a row this postseason.
By then, the secret about Nowitzki's illness was out. He was wheezing, coughing and doing all he could to fight the effects of a 101-degree fever.
"His wind didn't look the same," guard Jason Terry said. "But for the most part he was intense, he was locked in, he was focused."
Nowitzki scored 10 of his 21 points and grabbed five of his 11 rebounds while the Mavs pulled off another late comeback, erasing a nine-point deficit with 10:12 left. This rally kept them from falling into the black hole of a 3-1 deficit, instead putting them right back in the thick of things at 2-2.
Comparisons instantly were made to Michael Jordan scoring 38 points in Game 5 of the 1997 finals while battling a fever of 103. Nelson called it "our version of Willis Reed," except Reed only had the first four points for the New York Knicks when he made his dramatic appearance for the tipoff of Game 7 of the 1970 finals.
"I think last night was one of the most inspirational, gut performances in Mavs history," Nelson said. "If he doesn't tough it out and if he doesn't come back, there is no way (the Mavs win). I don't even know how he was standing in that fourth quarter because that was a physically taxing game. Hat's off. We're here at 2-2 because of him. ... Like all great players, you just find a way. You shut off the physical. All great players have that psyche. Their mind is able to overcome whatever limitations they have."
Apparently, even on an off day, as evidence by Nowitzki's plans to return to the arena later in the day.
Nelson didn't know about that plan, but also wasn't surprised.
"He better be feeling real good if that's the case," Nelson said, laughing. "He'll probably do a little free throws, a little technical stuff. He's a big boy now. He understands that he can't be burning up energy now like he could when he was 22."
Nowitzki has plenty of company on the injured list.
Backup center Brendan Haywood lasted only three minutes in Game 4 because of a hip injury that kept him out the previous game. He said Wednesday "we'll see" when asked about his chances of playing in Game 5.
Chandler picked up the slack by playing a team-high 43 minutes. Shawn Marion was limited to 26 minutes after playing a team-high 43 the previous game. Terry is also getting over a bone bruise in his shooting wrist sustained in Game 1.
And don't forget about Nowitzki's damaged digit. At a news conference Wednesday, he left middle finger was held straight with a tongue depressor taped under it as a makeshift splint.
Hey, it's the playoffs. Whatever it takes.
"Basically, for a month and a half, two months, you're living on the edge every night," Nowitzki said. "You're thinking about it, eat, breathe, sleep basketball, and that's what's fun about the playoffs, but also very draining.
"We have one more week to go, both teams, and we're going to go for it. Both teams are going to get their vacation afterwards."

Clippers owner banned for life
New York -- Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling has been banned for life by the NBA for racist comments in a recording.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said he will try to force a sale of the Clippers, and also fined Sterling $2.5 million.
Silver called Sterling's comments and views "deeply offensive and harmful."
Sterling's being investigated amid allegations he made racially charged comments in a recorded conversation with a woman.

Ramadan in Sharjah has always had a distinct character and flavour with a number of celebrations, festivals, exhibitions and offers at the malls, hotels and restaurants as well as airline promotions making the emirate a perfect family destination for GCC visitors.
Commenting on the significance of visitors from across the Gulf region and the attractions offered by Sharjah, Mohamed Ali Al Noman, Director General of Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority, said, "GCC tourism always boosts the tourism movement during Ramadan. A huge number of GCC nationals prefer spending the holy month in Sharjah in the welcoming milieu of Arab-Islamic heritage, culture and entertainment. Every year, the emirate witnesses a remarkable presence of GCC visitors. Last year during Ramadan, more than 46,000 GCC tourists visited the emirate. This year a number of new hotels have come up in Sharjah meeting the demand of the increasing number of GCC visitors."
Al Noman pointed out that relatively short distance and low airfares also attract GCC tourists to the emirate. Entry procedures and facilities are smooth and hassle-free.
"Hotels promotions and discounts at malls and shopping centres all come together to increase the flow of GCC tourists into the emirate," he added.
Tourists always look for safe and secure destinations to visit and Sharjah is among the best in the region with world class infrastructure and tourism facilities which have had a crucial role to play in the increase of GCC tourists spending Ramadan in Sharjah, emphasised the Director General.
Sharjah is hosting a number of special events and programmes to celebrate this festive season. The Sharjah Ramadan Festival, hosted by the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry in its 22nd year, is being held from August 4 to September 10 alongside a number of other special events and activities in the emirate such as Ramadaniat Al Qasba and a series of special Ramadan lectures and symposiums by renowned Islamic scholars at Eiman Oasis.
The Ramadan and Eid Fair at Sharjah Expo Centre, from August 11 to September 3, is another major attraction of the season.
The SCDTA organises every year road shows in a number of GCC capitals and cities aiming at strengthening the GCC tourism cooperation and promoting Sharjah's tourism as a distinct cultural and family tourism destination.

WOW...did anyone catch ABC's The Lookout last night? It was a wedding edition and one category was a wedding cake taste test.
Three cakes...a $2200 New York designer cake, a $300 supermarket cake and a baked-at-home from Betty Crocker cake mix cake that cost $12 to make. While of course the designer cake was spectacular in appearance, the Betty Crocker cake won the taste test everywhere across the country, even in a blindfold test. Now why do I bother to bake from scratch? (That's just rhetoric...no changes in the baking on the horizon!)
It does, however, show how people's tastes are trained toward a lot of convenience foods....while the high end cake was without doubt made with the best ingredients around and a box of cake mix's ingredient list looks like a chemistry experiment, people still like what's familiar to them in the end.

Portsmouth manhunt suspect turns himself in to police
Edward T. Critten, 42, with a last known address of the Motel 6 in Portsmouth has been arrested on four counts of simple assault, one count of criminal trespass and one count of burglary.
Police began searching for Critten shortly after noon on Tuesday after responding to the area of Weald Road in the Gosling Meadows neighborhood for a report of a domestic disturbance. Officers developed probable cause to charge Critten for entering the house of the mother of his children without permission and allegedly punching her in the face and body. Police said a friend of the victim attempted to intervene and was allegedly bitten by Critten.
"We had information from witnesses that he went into the Motel 6 and that began our canvass and search of that area," MacDonald said.
The search continued in the surrounding area until about 10 p.m. with the assistance of the Seacoast Emergency Response Team, NH State Police, Newington police and Portsmouth police. MacDonald said Portsmouth police also continued searching throughout the night.
Critten is being held on $30,000 cash bail for the five misdemeanor counts and will be formally charged with felony burglary in Portsmouth Circuit Court on Thursday morning.
As a result he was charged with a felony count of second-degree assault for biting an 11-year-old boy in the chest, as well as two misdemeanor counts of simple assault, one alleging he punched a nine-year-old child in the chest and another stating that he injured his girlfriend.
