DOUBLE STANDARDS? Timothy Geithner, nominated by Barack Obama to be secretary of the treasury, seems to have a little problem with taxes and domestic help. Questions regarding taxes and other unpleasantries have dogged Charles Rangel, chairman of the House Committee on
Ways and Means - the panel responsible for tax policy. Allegations of crony loans from Countrywide (the lender that came to symbolize subprime excess) have been raised against
Christopher Dodd, chairman ...

... required the showing of a special mental deficiency as a prerequisite to any claim of incompetency. Plus, I think that Justice Blease writes a really, really good opinion in this
regard, and one that is extremely sophisticated and persuasive. Still, I gotta tell you, I'm a little weirded out by the first of these cases

... school business. The related-party stuff is still going strong too, with Finkelstein's son, Michael, receiving close to $500K last year for selling insurance policies paid for by
the company. And Vice Chairman Myron Kunin's son, Timothy, who supplies the company with magazines, saw company-related revenues increase
nearly 40%. The increase seems particularly odd, given magazine industry trends. The compensation and side deals also seem especially generous when viewed in the context of the ...

... obnoxious MS Word-documents on the desk of the responable professor. He swiftly browsed through it, and - you guessed it - his eyes fell on my summary. "Nice work, Timothy!", he said, and wrote down some positive comments on my evaluation form. This little story shows how

... a reliable source. Agencies like the BLS and BEA who are in the business of collecting official statistics are generally reliable. But it's not safe to assume that other agencies
have done their homework. The FBI, for example, has made little effort to correct the record on the $250 billion figure, despite the fact that

... should be concerned about the dangers of laws that restrict research and free inquiry. And as an eminent scientist who has first-hand experience with such regulations, Laughlin is
well-positioned to throw a spotlight on the problem. Unfortunately, his argument gets a little muddled when he turned to the subject of
economics. Laughlin takes a dim view of commerce, characterizing it as a deceptive form of gambling. In his view, markets are a kind of amoral war of all against all, in which we get

... me about [Wikipedia] is that I think if you'd asked an economist in 1950, 1960, 1970, 1980, 1990, even 2000: "could Wikipedia work," most of them would say no. They'd say "well it
can't work, you see, because you get so little glory from this. There's no profit. Everyone's gonna free ride. They'd love to read Wikipedia if
it existed, but no one's going to create it because there's a free-riding problem." And those folks were wrong. They misunderstood the pure pleasure that overcomes some of ...

... other sources, that would be a violation of network neutrality. The Journal article had relatively few details about the deal Google is supposedly negotiating with residential ISPs,
so it's hard to say for sure which category it's in. But what little description the Journal does give us-that the agreement would "place
Google servers directly within the network of the service providers"-suggests that the agreement would not violate network neutrality. And indeed, over on its public policy blog, ...

... concerns: Privacy violations by Yahoo or its partners: Some people are worried that Yahoo itself is tracking their online activities, building an online profile about them, and
selling this information to third parties. Obviously, Yahoo's new policy will do little to allay such concerns. Indeed, as David Kravets points
out, Yahoo will have already squeezed all the personal information it can out of those logs before it scours them. If you don't trust Yahoo or its business partners, this move ...
